NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation: The accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Peoples Bancorp Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Peoples" refers to Peoples Bancorp Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries collectively, except where the context indicates the reference relates solely to Peoples Bancorp Inc.) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, these financial statements do not contain all of the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with Peoples’ Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 ("Peoples' 2024 Form 10-K").
The accounting and reporting policies followed in the presentation of the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are consistent with those described in "Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples’ 2024 Form 10-K, as updated by the information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2025 (this "Form 10-Q"). Management has evaluated all significant events and transactions that occurred after June 30, 2025 for potential recognition or disclosure in these Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. In the opinion of management, these Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly such information for the periods and at the dates indicated. Such adjustments are normal and recurring in nature. Certain items in prior financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation, which had no impact on net income, total comprehensive income, net cash provided by operating, financing, or investing activities or total stockholders’ equity. The impact of such changes are not considered material to Peoples' financial statements. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2024, contained herein, has been derived from the audited Consolidated Balance Sheet included in Peoples’ 2024 Form 10-K.
The preparation of the condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year, due in part to seasonal variations and unusual or infrequently occurring items.
Operating Segments: As a community banking entity, Peoples offers its customers a full range of products including a complete line of banking, leasing, insurance, investment and trust solutions. Peoples’ business activities are currently confined to a single reportable operating segment, which is community banking. Peoples’ single operating segment was determined based on the similar economic characteristics shared by the components of community banking. Peoples’ chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is composed of its President and Chief Executive Officer, and its Chief Financial Officer. Peoples’ CODM considers all components of consolidated interest income, interest expense, non-interest income, and non-interest expense as presented in Peoples’ Consolidated Statements of Operations for the purposes of assessing performance of Peoples’ single reportable segment and allocating resources within its reportable segment. The CODM does not review segment revenue or expense information at a lower level than what is included in Peoples’ Consolidated Statements of Operations.
New Accounting Pronouncements: From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by Peoples as of the required effective dates. Refer to "Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples’ 2024 Form 10-K for the impact of recently issued standards impacting Peoples. Unless otherwise discussed, management believes the impact of any recently issued standards, including those issued but not yet effective, will not have a material impact on Peoples' financial statements taken as a whole.
Note 2 Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities Fair value represents the amount expected to be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in its principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In accordance with fair value accounting guidance, Peoples measures, records and reports various types of assets and liabilities at fair value on either a recurring or a non-recurring basis in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Those assets and liabilities are presented below in the sections entitled “Assets and Liabilities Required to be Measured and Reported at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis” and “Assets and Liabilities Required to be Measured and Reported at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis.”
Depending on the nature of the asset or the liability, Peoples uses various valuation methodologies and assumptions to estimate fair value. The measurement of fair value under US GAAP uses a hierarchy, which is described in "Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples' 2024 Form 10-K.
Assets and liabilities are assigned to a level within the fair value hierarchy based on the lowest level of significant input used to measure fair value. Assets and liabilities may change levels within the fair value hierarchy due to market conditions or other
circumstances. Those transfers are recognized on the date of the event that prompted the transfer. There were no transfers of assets or liabilities required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis between levels of the fair value hierarchy during the periods presented.
Assets and Liabilities Required to be Measured and Reported at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The following table provides the fair value for assets and liabilities required to be measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets by level in the fair value hierarchy.

Available-for-Sale Investment Securities: The fair values used by Peoples are obtained from an independent pricing service and represent either quoted market prices for the identical securities (Level 1) or fair values determined by pricing models using a market approach that considers observable market data, such as interest rate volatility, secured overnight funding rate ("SOFR") (or other relevant) yield curves, credit spreads, and prices from market makers and live trading systems (Level 2). Management reviews the valuation methodology and quality controls utilized by the pricing services or broker in management's overall assessment of the reasonableness of the fair values provided, and challenges prices when management believes a material discrepancy in pricing exists.
Equity Investment Securities: The fair values of Peoples' equity investment securities are obtained from quoted prices in active exchange markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) or quoted prices in less active markets (Level 2).
Nonqualified deferred compensation: The underlying assets relating to the nonqualified deferred compensation plan are included in a trust and primarily consist of cash and exchange traded mutual funds, which values are based on market prices (Level 1).
Derivative Assets and Derivative Liabilities: The fair values for derivative financial instruments are determined based on third-party models, which leverage current market interest rates, broker-dealer quotations on similar products, or other related input parameters (Level 2).
Assets and Liabilities Required to be Measured and Reported at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
The following table provides the fair value for each class of assets and liabilities required to be measured and reported at fair value on a non-recurring basis on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets by level in the fair value hierarchy at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

| | | | | | | | |
(a) Loans held for sale are presented gross of a valuation allowance of $80 and $166 at June 30, 2025 and at December 31, 2024, respectively.
Collateral Dependent Loans: Loans for which repayment is dependent upon the operation or sale of collateral, as the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, are considered collateral dependent. Peoples utilizes outside third-party appraisal services to value the underlying collateral, which Peoples then uses to report the loans at their fair value (Level 3).
Loans Held for Sale: Loans originated and intended to be sold in the secondary market, generally one-to-four family residential loans, are carried, in aggregate, at the lower of cost or estimated fair value. Peoples uses a valuation model using quoted market prices of similar instruments in arriving at the fair value (Level 2).
Other Real Estate Owned ("OREO"): OREO, included in "Other assets" on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets, is comprised primarily of commercial and residential real estate properties acquired by Peoples in satisfaction of a loan. OREO obtained in satisfaction of a loan is recorded at the lower of cost or estimated fair value, less estimated costs to sell the property. The carrying value of OREO is not re-measured to fair value on a recurring basis, but is based on recent real estate appraisals and is updated at least annually. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches, including the comparable sales approach and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available (Level 3).
Financial Instruments Not Required to be Measured or Reported at Fair Value
The following table provides the carrying amount for each class of assets and liabilities and the fair value for certain financial instruments that are not required to be measured or reported at fair value on the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.

table above and not included in this table.
(c) Loans and leases, net of deferred fees and costs, are presented gross of an allowance for credit losses of $74.7 million and $63.3 million at June 30, 2025 and at December 31, 2024, respectively.
For certain financial assets and liabilities, carrying value approximates fair value due to the nature of the financial instrument. These financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents and overnight borrowings. Peoples used the following methods and assumptions in estimating the fair value of the following financial instruments:
Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, balances due from other banks, interest-bearing deposits in other banks, federal funds sold and other short-term investments with original maturities of 90 days or less. The carrying amount for cash and cash equivalents balances are a reasonable estimate of fair value (Level 1).
Held-to-Maturity Investment Securities: The fair values used by Peoples are obtained from an independent pricing service and represent fair values determined by pricing models using a market approach that considers observable market data, such as interest rate volatility, relevant yield curves, credit spreads and prices from market makers and live trading systems (Level 2). Management reviews the valuation methodology and quality controls utilized by the pricing services in management's overall assessment of the reasonableness of the fair values provided, and challenges prices when management believes a material discrepancy in pricing exists.
Other Investments: FHLB and FRB stock are both recorded at historical cost. Other investments are otherwise primarily comprised of investments accounted for under the cost method due to the level of control Peoples exercises over the investee. These investments are not actively traded in an open market as sales for these types of investments are rare (Level 3).
Loans and Leases, Net of Deferred Fees and Costs: The fair value of portfolio loans and leases assumes sale of the underlying notes to a third-party financial investor. Accordingly, this value is not necessarily the value to Peoples if the notes were held to maturity. Peoples considers interest rate, credit and market factors in estimating the fair value of loans and leases (Level 3). Fair values for loans and leases are estimated using a discounted cash flow methodology. The discount rates take into account interest rates currently being offered to customers for loans and leases with similar terms, the credit risk associated with the loans and leases and other market factors, including liquidity.
Bank Owned Life Insurance: Peoples' bank owned life insurance policies are recorded at their cash surrender value, which approximates fair value (Level 2). Peoples recognizes tax-exempt income from the periodic increases in the cash surrender value of these policies and from death benefits.
Deposits: The fair value of fixed-maturity certificates of deposit ("CDs") is estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation based on current rates offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. Demand and other non-fixed-maturity deposits are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation based on maturity, attrition and re-pricing assumptions (Level 2).
Short-term Borrowings: The fair value of short-term borrowings is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on rates currently available to Peoples for borrowings with similar terms (Level 2).
Long-term Borrowings: The fair value of long-term borrowings is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis based on rates currently available to Peoples for borrowings with similar terms (Level 2).
Certain financial assets and financial liabilities that are not required to be measured or reported at fair value can be subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment). These financial assets and financial liabilities include the following: customer relationships, the deposit base, and other information required to compute Peoples’ aggregate fair value, which are not included in the above information. Accordingly, the fair values described above are not intended to represent the aggregate fair value of Peoples.

Management evaluates available-for-sale investment securities for an allowance for credit losses on a quarterly basis. At June 30, 2025, management concluded that no individual securities at an unrealized loss position required an allowance for credit losses. At June 30, 2025, Peoples did not have the intent to sell, nor was it more likely than not that Peoples would be required to sell, any of the securities with an unrealized loss prior to recovery. Further, the unrealized losses at both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were attributable to changes in market interest rates and spreads since the securities were purchased, and were not credit-related losses.
The unrealized loss with respect to the two bank-issued trust preferred securities that had been in an unrealized loss position for 12 months or more at June 30, 2025 was attributable to the subordinated nature of the trust preferred securities.
The table below presents the amortized cost, fair value and total weighted-average yield of available-for-sale securities by contractual maturity at June 30, 2025. The weighted-average yields are based on the amortized cost. In some cases, the issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations without call or prepayment penalties prior to the contractual maturity date.

Management evaluates held-to-maturity investment securities for an allowance for credit losses on a quarterly basis. The majority of People's held-to maturity investment securities are mortgage-backed securities, for which an allowance for credit losses was not recorded. Peoples calculated the allowance for credit losses for state and political subdivisions using cumulative default rate averages for municipal securities. Peoples reported $0.2 million of allowance for credit losses for held-to-maturity securities at both June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024.
The following table presents a summary of held-to-maturity investment securities that had been in a continuous unrealized loss position for the periods identified:

Total other investments | $ | 67,538 | | $ | 60,132 | |
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, Peoples redeemed $15.6 million of FHLB stock in order to be in compliance with the requirements of the FHLB. Peoples purchased $21.5 million of additional FHLB stock during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as a result of the FHLB's capital requirements on FHLB advances.
For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, Peoples recorded the change in the fair value of equity investment securities held during the period in "Other non-interest income", resulting in unrealized gains of $7,000 and $21,000, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, Peoples recognized an unrealized loss of $2,000 and an unrealized gain of $68,000, respectively, for the change in fair value of equity investment securities in "Other non-interest income."
At June 30, 2025, Peoples' investment in equity investment securities was comprised largely of common stocks issued by various unrelated bank holding companies. There were no equity investment securities of a single issuer that exceeded 10% of Peoples' stockholders' equity at June 30, 2025.

Accrued Interest
Accrued interest receivable is not included in investment securities balances, and is presented in the “Other assets” line of the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets, with no recorded allowance for credit losses. Interest receivable on investment securities was $9.7 million at June 30, 2025 and $9.9 million at December 31, 2024.
Peoples' loan portfolio consists of various types of loans and leases originated primarily as a result of lending opportunities within Peoples' footprint. Peoples also originates insurance premium finance loans nationwide through its Peoples Premium Finance division, and originates leases nationwide through its North Star Leasing ("NSL") division and its Vantage Financial, LLC ("Vantage") subsidiary.
The major classifications of loan balances (in each case, net of deferred fees and costs) excluding loans held for sale, were as follows:

|
The table above includes net deferred loan origination costs of $19.7 million and $20.2 million at June 30, 2025 and at December 31, 2024, respectively. The remaining unamortized net discount included in the amortized cost of loans and leases was $12.9 million and $19.5 million at June 30, 2025 and at December 31, 2024, respectively.
Accrued interest receivable is not included within the loan balances, but is presented in the “Other assets” line of the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets, with no recorded allowance for credit losses. Total interest receivable on loans was $22.7 million at June 30, 2025 and $23.1 million at December 31, 2024.
Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans
A loan is considered past due if any required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were required to be made under the terms of the loan agreement. A loan may be placed on nonaccrual status regardless of whether or not such loan is considered past due.
The amortized cost of loans on nonaccrual status and of loans delinquent for 90 days or more and accruing was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| June 30, 2025 | | December 31, 2024 |
(Dollars in thousands) | Nonaccrual (a) | Accruing Loans 90+ Days Past Due | | Nonaccrual (a) | Accruing Loans 90+ Days Past Due |

Total loans, at amortized cost | $ | 34,485 | | $ | 6,126 | | | $ | 34,129 | | $ | 8,637 | |
|
(a) There were $0.0 million and $5.7 million of nonaccrual loans for which there was no allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2025 and at December 31, 2024, respectively.
During the first six months of 2025, nonaccrual loans increased slightly compared to at December 31, 2024, which was primarily due to an uptick in the volume of leases placed on nonaccrual during the first six months, partially offset by decreases in commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans. The decrease in accruing loans 90+ days past due at June 30, 2025, when compared to at December 31, 2024, was primarily due to reductions in accruing 90+ days past due premium finance loans and residential real estate loans of $1.4 million and $1.0 million, respectively. The delinquent premium finance loans carry low credit risk, due to the ability to cancel premiums and recover the majority of the receivable from the insurer.

Delinquency trends improved slightly, as 99.1% of Peoples' loan portfolio was considered “current” at June 30, 2025, compared to 98.7% at December 31, 2024.
Pledged Loans
Peoples has pledged certain loans secured by one-to-four family and multifamily residential mortgages, home equity lines of credit and commercial real estate loans under a blanket collateral agreement to secure borrowings from the FHLB. Peoples also has pledged eligible commercial and industrial loans to secure borrowings with the FRB. Loans pledged are summarized as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
(Dollars in thousands) | June 30, 2025 | December 31, 2024 |

Loans pledged to FRB | 497,496 | | 527,989 | |
Credit Quality Indicators
As discussed in "Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples' 2024 Form 10-K, Peoples categorizes the majority of its loans into risk categories based upon an established risk grading matrix using a scale of 1 to 8. Loan grades are assigned at the time a new loan or lending commitment is extended by Peoples and may be changed at any time when circumstances warrant. Commercial loans to borrowers with an aggregate unpaid principal balance in excess of $1.0 million are reviewed at least on an annual basis for possible credit deterioration. Commercial leases, as well as loan relationships whose aggregate credit exposure to Peoples is equal to or less than $1.0 million, are reviewed on an event driven basis. Triggers for review include knowledge of adverse events affecting the borrower's business, receipt of financial statements
indicating deteriorating credit quality or other similar events. Adversely classified loans are reviewed on a quarterly basis. A description of the general characteristics of the risk grades used by Peoples, follows:
“Pass” (grades 1 through 4): Loans in this risk category involve borrowers of acceptable-to-strong credit quality and risk who have the apparent ability to satisfy their loan obligations. Loans in this risk category would possess sufficient mitigating factors, such as adequate collateral or strong guarantors possessing the capacity to repay the loan if required, for any weakness that may exist.
“Special Mention” (grade 5): Loans in this risk grade are the equivalent of the regulatory definition of “Other Assets Especially Mentioned.” Loans in this risk category possess some credit deficiency or potential weakness, which requires a high level of management attention. Potential weaknesses include declining trends in operating earnings and cash flows and/or reliance on a secondary source of repayment. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in noticeable deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or in Peoples' credit position.
“Substandard” (grade 6): Loans in this risk grade are inadequately protected by the borrower's current financial condition and payment capability or the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have one or more well-defined weaknesses that jeopardize the orderly repayment of the loans. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that Peoples will sustain some loss if the weaknesses are not corrected.
“Doubtful” (grade 7): Loans in this risk grade have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or orderly repayment in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific factors that may work to the advantage and strengthening of the exposure, classification of each of these loans as an estimated loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined.
“Loss” (grade 8): Loans in this risk grade are considered to be non-collectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This does not mean a loan has absolutely no recovery value, but rather it is neither practical nor desirable to defer writing off the loan, even though partial recovery may be obtained in the future. Charge-offs against the allowance for credit losses are taken during the period in which the loan becomes uncollectible. Consequently, Peoples typically does not maintain a recorded investment in loans within this category.
Consumer loans and other smaller-balance loans are evaluated and categorized as "substandard," "doubtful" or "loss" based upon the regulatory definition of these classes and consistent with regulatory requirements. Leases are categorized as "special mention", "substandard", "doubtful", or "loss" based upon delinquency status and the prospect of collecting the remaining net investment balance owed under the lease. All other loans not evaluated individually, nor meeting the regulatory conditions to be categorized as described above, would be considered as being "not rated."
The following table summarizes the risk category of loans within Peoples' loan portfolio, including acquired loans, based upon the most recent analysis performed at June 30, 2025:

Collateral Dependent Loans
Peoples has certain loans for which repayment is dependent upon the operation or sale of collateral, as the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. The underlying collateral can vary based upon the type of loan. The following provides more detail about the types of collateral that secure collateral dependent loans:
•Construction loans are typically secured by owner occupied commercial real estate or non-owner occupied investment real estate. Typically, owner occupied construction loans are secured by office buildings, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and other commercial and industrial properties that are in process of construction. Non-owner occupied commercial construction loans are generally secured by multi-family complexes, warehouse buildings, industrial buildings, land under development, and other commercial real estate in process of construction.
•Commercial real estate loans can be secured by either owner occupied commercial real estate or non-owner occupied investment commercial real estate. Typically, owner occupied commercial real estate loans are secured by office buildings, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, and other commercial and industrial properties occupied by operating companies. Non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans are generally secured by multifamily complexes, retail facilities, office buildings and complexes, warehouses, industrial buildings, land under development, as well as other commercial real estate.
•Commercial and industrial loans are generally secured by equipment, inventory, accounts receivable, and other commercial property.
•Residential real estate loans are typically secured by first mortgages, and in some cases could be secured by a second mortgage, on residential real estate property.
•Home equity lines of credit are generally secured by second mortgages on residential real estate property.
•Consumer loans are generally secured by automobiles, motorcycles, recreational vehicles and other personal property. Some consumer loans are unsecured and have no underlying collateral.
•Leases are most often secured by commercial equipment and other essential business assets.
•Premium finance loans are secured by the unearned portion of the insurance premium being financed.
The following table details Peoples' amortized cost of collateral dependent loans:

Total collateral dependent loans | $ | 7,097 | | | | $ | 4,375 | | |
The increase in collateral dependent loans at June 30, 2025, compared to December 31, 2024, was primarily driven by the addition of three NSL leases which totaled approximately $1.9 million.
Modifications for Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
As part of Peoples' loss mitigation activities, Peoples may agree to modify the contractual terms of a loan to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty. The most common modifications to the contractual terms of a loan to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty include an extension of the maturity date, a reduction in the interest rate for the remaining life of the loan, a temporary period of interest-only payments, and a reduction in the contractual payment amount for either a short period or the remaining term of the loan.
In addition to loan modifications, Peoples also provides other loss mitigation options, such as forbearance and repayment plans, to assist borrowers who experience financial difficulties. In assessing whether or not a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, Peoples considers information currently available regarding the financial condition of the borrower. This information includes, but is not limited to, whether (1) the borrower is currently in payment default on any of the borrower's debt; (2) a payment default is probable in the foreseeable future without the modification; (3) the borrower has declared or is in the process of declaring bankruptcy; and (4) the borrower's projected cash flow is insufficient to satisfy contractual payments due under the original terms of the loan without a modification.
The allowance for credit losses for loans modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty is determined based on the allowance for credit losses policy as described in Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples' 2024 Form 10-K.
The following tables display the amortized cost of loans that were restructured during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, presented by loan classification.

Allowance for Credit Losses
As discussed in "Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples' 2024 Form 10-K, Peoples estimates the allowance for credit losses using relevant available information, from both internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. In management's estimation of expected credit losses, Peoples uses a one-year reasonable and supportable period across all segments. Following the reasonable and supportable period, Peoples reverts the macroeconomic variables to their long run average over a four-quarter reversion period.
Changes in the allowance for credit losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024 are summarized below:

(a)Amount does not include the provision for the allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments.
During the second quarter of 2025, Peoples recorded a total provision for credit losses on loans of $16.4 million, which was primarily driven by (i) net charge offs, (ii) an increase in reserves for individually analyzed loans and leases, (iii) an increase in reserves for leases originated by our North Star Leasing division, (iv) a periodic refresh in loss drivers utilized within the CECL model, (v) deterioration in the economic forecasts used within the CECL model, and (vi) loan growth. Net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2025 were $7.0 million, primarily driven by our North Star Leasing division. The increase in the allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2025 when compared to at March 31, 2025 was primarily driven by explanations (ii) - (vi) described above.
During the second quarter of 2024, Peoples recorded a provision for credit losses of $5.7 million, which was driven by (i) higher net charge-offs, (ii) an increase in reserves for individually analyzed loans and leases, and (iii) loan growth. Net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2024 were $4.2 million, primarily driven by an increase in charge-offs on leases originated by our North Star Leasing division, partially offset by decreases in net charge-offs on commercial and industrial loans and other commercial real estate loans.
Peoples had recorded an allowance for unfunded commitments of $2.4 million and $2.0 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The allowance for unfunded commitments (also referred to as "unfunded commitment liability") is presented in the “Accrued expenses and other liabilities” line of the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. The change in the allowance for unfunded commitments is also reflected in the "Provision for (recovery of) credit losses" line of the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Note 10 Derivative Financial Instruments Peoples utilizes interest rate swap agreements as part of its asset/liability management strategy to help manage its interest rate risk position. The notional amount of the interest rate swaps does not represent amounts exchanged by the parties. The amount exchanged is determined by reference to the notional amount and the other terms of the individual interest rate swap agreements.
Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities - Risk Management Objective of Using Derivative Financial Instruments
Peoples is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. Peoples principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. Peoples manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk, primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of its assets and liabilities. Peoples also manages interest rate risk through the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, Peoples enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known or expected cash amounts, the values of which are determined by interest rates. Peoples’ derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of Peoples' known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to certain variable rate borrowings. Peoples also has interest rate derivative financial instruments that result from a service provided to certain qualifying customers and, therefore, are not used to manage interest rate risk in Peoples' assets or liabilities. Peoples manages a matched book with respect to customer-related derivative financial instruments in order to minimize its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
Peoples' objectives in using interest rate derivative financial instruments are to add stability to interest income and expense, and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish these objectives, Peoples has entered into interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. These interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and involve the receipt of variable rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for Peoples making fixed payments. At June 30, 2025, Peoples had entered into six interest rate swap contracts with an aggregate notional value of $55.0 million. Peoples will pay a fixed rate of interest for up to four years while receiving a floating rate component of interest equal to the term secured overnight financing rate ("SOFR"). The interest received on the floating rate component is intended to offset the interest paid on rolling three-month brokered CDs or FHLB advances, which will continue to be rolled through the life of the interest rate swaps. At both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the interest rate swaps were designated as cash flow hedges of $55.0 and $75.0 million, respectively, in brokered CDs, which are expected to be extended every 90 days through the maturity dates of the interest rate swaps.
For derivative financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges and deemed highly effective, all changes in the fair value of each derivative financial instrument is reported in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income ("AOCI") (outside of earnings), net of tax, and are reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made or received on Peoples' variable-rate liabilities. Peoples assesses the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in cash flows of the hedging derivative financial instrument with the changes in cash flows of the designated hedged transaction. The reset dates and the payment dates on the brokered CDs or FHLB advances are matched to the reset dates and payment dates on the receipt of the term SOFR (or the three-month LIBOR floating portion prior to June 30, 2023) of the swaps to ensure effectiveness of the cash flow hedge. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, Peoples recorded reclassifications of losses to earnings of $0.7 million and $1.7 million, respectively. During the next 12 months, Peoples estimates that $0.9 million of AOCI will be reclassified as an addition to interest expense.

Non-Designated Hedges
Peoples Bank maintains an interest rate protection program for commercial loan customers, which was established in 2010. Under this program, Peoples Bank originates variable rate loans with interest rate swaps, where the customer enters into an interest rate swap with Peoples Bank on terms that match the terms of the loan. By entering into the interest rate swap with the customer, Peoples Bank effectively provides the customer with a fixed rate loan while creating a variable rate asset for Peoples Bank. Peoples Bank offsets its exposure in the interest rate swap by entering into an offsetting interest rate swap with an unaffiliated institution. These interest rate swaps do not qualify as designated hedges; therefore, each interest rate swap is accounted for as a standalone derivative financial instrument. These interest rate swaps did not have a material impact on Peoples' results of operations or financial condition at or for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, or at or for the year ended December 31, 2024.

(a) Netting adjustments represent the amounts recorded to convert our derivative assets and liabilities from a gross basis to a net basis in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance. The net basis takes into account the impact of master netting agreements that allow us to settle derivative contracts with a single counterparty on a net basis. Total derivative assets and liabilities include these netting adjustments.
Pledged Collateral
Peoples Bank pledges or receives collateral for all interest rate swaps. When the fair value of Peoples Bank interest rate swaps is in a net liability position, Peoples Bank must pledge collateral, and, when the fair value of Peoples Bank interest rate swaps is in a net asset position, the respective counterparties must pledge collateral. At June 30, 2025 and at December 31, 2024, Peoples Bank had no cash pledged, while counterparties had $3.7 million of cash pledged at June 30, 2025 and $12.3 million of cash pledged at December 31, 2024. Peoples Bank had no pledged investment securities at June 30, 2025 or at December 31, 2024, while the counterparties had pledged no investment securities at June 30, 2025 and had pledged $1.9 million of investment securities at December 31, 2024.
Note 11 Stock-Based Compensation Under the Peoples Bancorp Inc. Fourth Amended and Restated 2006 Equity Plan (the "2006 Equity Plan"), Peoples may grant, among other awards, nonqualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted common share awards, stock appreciation rights, performance units and unrestricted common share awards to employees and non-employee directors. The total number of common shares available under the 2006 Equity Plan is 1,493,297. The maximum number of common shares that can be issued for incentive stock options is 750,000. Since February 2009, Peoples has granted restricted common shares to employees, and periodically to non-employee directors, subject to the terms and conditions prescribed by the 2006 Equity Plan. In general, common shares issued in connection with stock-based awards are issued from treasury shares to the extent available. If no treasury shares are available, common shares are issued from authorized but unissued common shares.
Restricted Common Shares
Under the 2006 Equity Plan, Peoples may award restricted common shares to officers, key employees and non-employee directors. In general, the restrictions on the restricted common shares awarded to officers and key employees expire after periods ranging from one to five years. Since 2018, common shares awarded to non-employee directors have vested immediately upon grant with no restrictions. In the first six months of 2025, Peoples granted an aggregate of 159,097 restricted common shares subject to performance-based vesting to officers and key employees with restrictions that will lapse three years after the grant date; provided that in order for the restricted common shares to vest in full, Peoples must have reported positive net income and maintained a well-capitalized status by regulatory standards for each of the three fiscal years preceding the vesting date.
The following table summarizes the changes to Peoples’ restricted common shares for the six months ended June 30, 2025:

The intrinsic value for restricted common shares released was $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $2.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Stock-Based Compensation
Peoples recognizes stock-based compensation, which is included as a component of Peoples’ salaries and employee benefit costs, for restricted and unrestricted common shares, as well as purchases made by participants in the employee stock purchase plan. For restricted common shares, Peoples recognizes stock-based compensation based on the estimated fair value of the awards expected to vest on the grant date. The estimated fair value is then expensed over the vesting period, which is normally three years. Peoples also has an employee stock purchase plan whereby employees can purchase Peoples' common shares at a discount of 15%. The following table summarizes the amount of stock-based compensation expense and related tax benefit recognized for each period:

Peoples records contract assets for income that has been recognized over a period of time for fulfillment of performance obligations, but payment has not yet been received related to electronic banking income and certain insurance income. This income typically relates to bonuses for which Peoples is eligible, but will not receive until a certain time in the future. Peoples records contract liabilities for payments received for commission income related to the sale of insurance policies, for which the performance obligations have not yet been fulfilled. The contract liabilities are recognized as income over time, during the period in which the performance obligations are fulfilled, which is over the insurance policy period. Peoples also records contract liabilities for bonuses received related to electronic banking income, for which the performance obligations have not yet been fulfilled. The contract liabilities are recognized as income over time, during the period in which the performance obligations are fulfilled related to electronic banking income.

Peoples has elected certain practical expedients, in accordance with ASC 842 - Leases ("ASC 842"). As a lessor, Peoples has made an accounting policy election to exclude from the consideration in the contract, and from variable payments not included in the consideration in the contract, all sales and other similar taxes assessed. Peoples has also made an accounting policy election to account for each separate lease component of a contract and its associated non-lease components as a single lease component for all leases subject to ASC 842.
Lessor Arrangements
Peoples began originating leases with the acquisition of leases from NSL and increased its portfolio with the acquisition of Vantage. The leases for NSL were determined to be sales-type leases, as the premise for the leases is dollar buy-out, whereby the lessee pays one dollar at maturity of the lease to purchase the equipment. The leases for Vantage were determined to be primarily sales-type leases, as the payment structure and term triggered that accounting treatment, whereby either (i) the lease is structured as a fair market value buyout, whereby the lessee has the option to purchase the leased equipment at its fair market value at maturity of the lease, or (ii) the lessee purchases the leased equipment for one dollar at maturity of the lease. Originated leases are primarily classified as sales-type leases, and to a lesser extent, operating leases. These leases do not typically contain residual value guarantees; however, Peoples reduces its residual asset risk by obtaining a security deposit from the lessee. As a lessor, Peoples originates commercial equipment leases either directly to the customer or indirectly through vendor programs. Equipment leases relate to automotive, construction, healthcare, manufacturing, office, restaurant, information technology and other equipment. These leases include an estimated residual value, which is assessed for impairment as part of the allowance for credit losses. Operating leases are leases that do not meet the criteria of a sales-type lease. When Peoples originates an operating lease, it records an operating lease asset recognized in “Other assets” which is depreciated over its useful life. Operating leases assets are assessed for impairment consistent with Peoples’ fixed assets.
Sales-type leases originated by Peoples, that Peoples has the positive intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or to maturity or payoff, are reported at the net investment of the lease, net of initial direct costs, charge-offs and an allowance for credit losses. Peoples considers leases past due if any required payments have not been received as of the date such payments were required to be made under the terms of the lease agreement. Upon detection of the reduced ability of a lessee to meet cash flow obligations, leases are typically charged down to the net realizable value, with the residual balance placed on nonaccrual status. Leases deemed to be uncollectable are charged against the allowance for credit losses, while recoveries of previously charged-off amounts are credited to the allowance for credit losses.
Lease income noted in the table below includes (i) operating lease income, (ii) gains on the early termination of leases, net of any associated purchase accounting adjustments, (iii) month-to-month lease payments in excess of net investment in the lease, (iv) fees received for referrals, (v) gains and losses recognized on the sales of residual assets and (vi) syndication income. Additional information regarding Peoples' leases can be found in "Note 4 Loans and Leases."

Lessee Arrangements
Peoples leases certain banking facilities and equipment under various agreements with original terms providing for fixed monthly payments over periods generally ranging from two to 30 years. Certain leases may include options to extend or terminate the lease. Only those renewal and termination options which Peoples is reasonably certain of exercising are included in the calculation of the lease liability. Certain leases contain rent escalation clauses calling for rent increases over the term of the lease, which are included in the calculation of the lease liability. At June 30, 2025, Peoples did not have any leases that met the criteria for finance leases. Right of Use ("ROU") assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent an obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the commencement or the remeasurement date of a lease based on the present value of lease payments over the remaining lease term. Operating lease ROU assets include lease payments made at or before the commencement date and initial indirect costs. Operating lease ROU assets are presented net of any lease incentives. Short-term leases of certain facilities and equipment, with lease terms of 12 months or less, are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and do not have an ROU asset or lease liability.
The table below details Peoples' lease expense, which is included in "Net occupancy and equipment expense" in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations:

Peoples utilizes an incremental borrowing rate to determine the present value of lease payments for each lease, as the lease agreements do not provide an implicit rate. The estimated incremental borrowing rate reflects a secured rate and is based on the term of the lease.

(18)the impact of larger or similar-sized financial institutions encountering problems, such as the failure in 2024 of Republic First Bank, and closures in 2023 of Silicon Valley Bank in California, Signature Bank in New York, and First Republic Bank in California, which may adversely affect the banking industry and/or Peoples' business generation and retention, funding and liquidity, including Peoples' continued ability to grow deposits or maintain adequate deposit levels, and may further result in potential increased regulatory requirements, increased reputational risk and potential impacts to macroeconomic conditions;
(19)Peoples' ability to secure confidential information and deliver products and services through the use of computer systems and telecommunications networks, including those of Peoples' third-party vendors and other service providers, which may prove inadequate, and could adversely affect customer confidence in Peoples and/or result in Peoples incurring a financial loss;

RISK FACTORS" of Peoples' 2024 Form 10-K. Peoples encourages readers of this Form 10-Q to understand forward-looking statements to be strategic objectives rather than absolute targets of future performance. Peoples undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the filing of this Form 10-Q or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by applicable legal requirements. Copies of documents filed with the SEC are available free of charge at the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov and/or from Peoples' website – www.peoplesbancorp.com under the “Investor Relations” section.
All forward-looking statements speak only as of the filing date of this Form 10-Q and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements. Although management believes the expectations in these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions within the bounds of management’s knowledge of Peoples’ business and operations, it is possible that actual results may differ materially from these projections.
This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements, and Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements, contained in Peoples’ 2024 Form 10-K, as well as the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, ratios, statistics and discussions contained elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.
Business Overview
The following discussion and analysis of Peoples’ Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements is presented to provide insight into management’s assessment of the financial condition and results of operations.
Peoples is a diversified financial services holding company that makes available a complete line of banking, trust and investment, insurance, premium financing and equipment leasing solutions through its subsidiaries. Peoples' business activities are currently limited to one reporting unit and reportable operating segment, which is community banking. Peoples provides services through traditional offices, automated teller machines ("ATMs"), interactive teller machines ("ITMs"), mobile banking, telephone and internet-based banking. Peoples offers a complete array of insurance products through Peoples Insurance, a subsidiary of Peoples Bank. Brokerage services are offered by Peoples exclusively through an unaffiliated registered broker-dealer located at Peoples Bank's offices. Peoples Bank offers insurance premium finance lending nationwide through its Peoples Premium Finance division. Peoples also offers lease financing through its North Star Leasing division and through Vantage, a subsidiary of Peoples Bank. As of June 30, 2025, Peoples had 145 locations, including 127 full-service bank branches in Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia, Virginia, Washington D.C. and Maryland. Peoples Bank is subject to regulation and examination primarily by the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions (the "ODFI"), the FRB of Cleveland and the FDIC. Peoples Bank must also follow the regulations promulgated by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the "CFPB"), which regulates consumer financial products and services and certain financial services providers. Peoples Insurance is subject to regulation by the Ohio Department of Insurance and the state insurance regulatory agencies of those states in which Peoples Insurance may do business.
Critical Accounting Policies
The accounting and reporting policies of Peoples conform to US GAAP. The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Note 1 of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements describes Peoples' significant accounting policies. Management has identified the accounting policies that, due to the judgments, estimates and assumptions inherent in those policies, are critical to understanding Peoples’ Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and this MD&A at June 30, 2025, which have been disclosed in Peoples' 2024 Form 10-K and updated as necessary in "Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the policies disclosed in Peoples’ 2024 Form 10-K.
New Accounting Guidance Pending Adoption
ASU 2023-09 - Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures: The FASB issued ASU 2023-09 on December 14, 2023. The standard requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The standard is intended to benefit investors by providing more detailed income tax disclosures that would be useful in making capital allocation decisions. ASU 2023-09 applies to all entities subject to income taxes. For public business entities, the new requirements were effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively with early adoption permitted. Peoples does not expect the update will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2025-01 - Income Statement — Reporting Comprehensive Income — Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date: The FASB issued ASU 2025-01 on January 6, 2025. It clarifies the effective date of ASU 2024-03, which pertains to disaggregation of income statement expenses. For public business entities, the new requirements will be effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026. Peoples is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements.
Summary of Recent Transactions and Events
The following is a summary of recent transactions and events that have impacted or are expected to impact Peoples’ results of operations or financial condition:
◦For the second quarter of 2025, Peoples recorded a provision for credit losses of $16.6 million, compared to a provision for credit losses of $10.2 million for the linked quarter and a provision for credit losses of $5.7 million for the second quarter of 2024. The provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2025 was primarily driven by (i) net charge offs, (ii) an increase in reserves for individually-analyzed loans and leases, (iii) an increase in reserves for leases originated by our North Star Leasing division, (iv) a periodic refresh in loss drivers utilized within the CECL model, (v) deterioration in the economic forecasts used within the CECL model, and (vi) loan growth. The provision for the first quarter of 2025 was primarily driven by net charge-offs. The provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2024 was driven by (i) higher net charge-offs, (ii) an increase in reserves for individually analyzed loans, and (iii) loan growth. For more information, please refer to the section titled "RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Provision for Credit Losses" found later in this MD&A.
◦To combat the effects of ongoing inflationary pressures, the Federal Reserve Board increased the Federal Funds Target Rate range to 0.25% to 0.50% beginning on March 16, 2022, and continued to raise rates up to 5.25% to 5.50% on July 27, 2023. This rate remained unchanged until September 2024, at which point the Federal Reserve Board decreased rates by 50 basis points, reducing the rate to 4.75% to 5.00%. Subsequent 25 basis point cuts in both November and December 2024 brought the rate down further to 4.25% to 4.50%. The Federal Reserve Board has signaled that future rate reductions continue to be a possibility.
The impact of these transactions and events, where material, is discussed in the applicable sections of this MD&A.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Peoples reported net income of $21.2 million for the second quarter of 2025, representing earnings per diluted common share of $0.59. In comparison, Peoples reported net income of $24.3 million, representing earnings per diluted common share of $0.68, for the first quarter of 2025, and net income of $29.0 million, representing earnings per diluted common share of $0.82, for the second quarter of 2024. Non-core items negatively impacted earnings per diluted common share by $0.01 for the second quarter of 2025, $0.01 for the first quarter of 2025, and $0.02 for the second quarter of 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, Peoples recorded net income of $45.5 million, or $1.28 per diluted common share, compared to $58.6 million, or $1.66 per diluted common share, for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Net interest income was $87.6 million for the second quarter of 2025, and increased $2.3 million when compared to the linked quarter. Net interest margin was 4.15% for the second quarter of 2025, compared to 4.12% for the linked quarter. The increase in net interest income and net interest margin was primarily driven by lower deposit and borrowing costs. Net interest income for the second quarter of 2025 increased $1.0 million, or 1%, compared to the second quarter of 2024. The increase in net interest income compared to the second quarter of 2024 was driven by higher loan balances. Net interest margin for the second quarter of 2025 was 4.15% and decreased 3 basis points compared to 4.18% for the second quarter of 2024, impacted primarily by reductions in loan yields, driven by lower accretion income, partially offset by lower funding costs. Net interest income for the first six months of 2025 was $172.8 million, compared to $173.3 million for the same period of 2024. Net interest margin for the first six months of 2025 was 4.14%, compared to 4.22% for the same period of 2024 and was driven by lower accretion income.
Accretion income, net of amortization expense, from acquisitions was $2.6 million for the second quarter of 2025, $3.5 million for the first quarter of 2025 and $5.8 million for the second quarter of 2024, which added 12 basis points, 17 basis points and 28 basis points, respectively, to net interest margin. The decrease in accretion income for the second quarter of 2025 when compared to the linked quarter and the second quarter of 2024 was driven by fewer loan payoffs and more accretion income recognized in 2024 from
the merger with Limestone Bancorp Inc. (the "Limestone Merger"). Accretion income, net of amortization expense, was $6.1 million and $12.3 million for the first six months of 2025 and 2024, respectively. Accretion income added 15 basis points and 30 basis points to net interest margin for the first six months of 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in accretion income for the first six months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 was due to more accretion recognized in 2024 from the Limestone Merger.
The provision for credit losses was $16.6 million for the second quarter of 2025, compared to a provision for credit losses of $10.2 million for the linked quarter and a provision for credit losses of $5.7 million for the second quarter of 2024. The provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2025 was primarily driven by (i) net charge offs, (ii) an increase in reserves for individually-analyzed loans and leases, (iii) an increase in reserves for leases originated by our North Star Leasing division, (iv) a periodic refresh in loss drivers utilized within the CECL model, (v) deterioration in the economic forecasts used within the CECL model, and (vi) loan growth. The provision for credit losses for the linked quarter was primarily driven by net charge-offs. The provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2024 was driven by (i) net charge-offs, (ii) an increase of reserves for individually analyzed loans and leases, and (iii) loan growth. Net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2025 were $7.0 million, or 0.43% of average total loans annualized, compared to net charge-offs of $8.1 million, or 0.52% of average total loans annualized, for the linked quarter and net charge-offs of $4.2 million, or 0.27% of average total loans annualized, for the second quarter of 2024. For additional information on credit trends and the allowance for credit losses, see the "FINANCIAL CONDITION - Allowance for Credit Losses" section below.
The provision for credit losses for the first six months of 2025 was $26.8 million, compared to a provision for credit losses of $11.8 million for the first six months of 2024. The provision for credit losses for the first six months of 2025 was mainly a result of (i) net charge offs, (ii) an increase in reserves for individually-analyzed loans and leases, (iii) an increase in reserves for leases originated by our North Star Leasing division, (iv) a periodic refresh in loss drivers utilized within the CECL model, (v) deterioration in the economic forecasts used within the CECL model, and (vi) loan growth. The provision for credit losses for the first six months of 2024 was mainly a result of (i) higher net charge-offs, (ii) an increase in reserves for individually analyzed loans and leases and (iii) loan growth. Net charge-offs for the first six months of 2025 were $15.1 million, or 0.48% of average total loans annualized, compared to net charge-offs of $7.6 million, or 0.23% annualized, for the first six months of 2024. For additional information on credit trends and the allowance for credit losses, see the "Asset Quality" section below.
Net gains and losses include gains and losses on investment securities, asset disposals and other transactions, which are included in total non-interest income on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The net loss realized during the second quarter of 2025 was $0.3 million, compared to a net loss of $0.4 million for the linked quarter and a net loss of $0.8 million for the second quarter of 2024. Net losses in both the second and first quarter of 2025 were driven by a $0.3 million loss on repossessed assets in each quarter. The net loss for the second quarter of 2024 was due to $0.4 million of net losses on repossessed assets. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the total net loss was $0.6 million, compared to $1.1 million for the same period in 2024. These losses were primarily driven by $0.6 million and $0.7 million of losses on repossessed assets, respectively.
Total non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, for the second quarter of 2025 decreased $0.3 million compared to the linked quarter. The decrease in non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, was primarily impacted by a decrease of $1.5 million in insurance income due to seasonal performance-based commissions being paid in the first quarter of each year, partially offset by increases in lease income and electronic banking income of $0.7 million and $0.4 million, respectively. Compared to the second quarter of 2024, total non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, increased $2.7 million, due to an increase of $2.0 million in lease income, driven by operating lease income, an increase of $0.4 million in insurance income, and an increase of $0.3 million in other non-interest income, partially offset by a decrease of $0.3 million in deposit account service charges.
For the first six months of 2025, total non-interest income, excluding gains and losses, increased $4.0 million, or 8%, compared to the first six months of 2024. The increase was driven by (i) a $3.5 million increase in lease income, driven by gains on early Vantage lease terminations and operating lease income, (ii) a $0.9 million increase in other non-interest income, driven by an increase in swap fee income due to customer demand, and (iii) a $0.7 million increase in trust and investment income, driven by an increase in assets under administration and management. These increases were partially offset by a $0.5 million decrease in deposit account service charges and a $0.4 million decrease in electronic banking income due to customer activity.
Total non-interest expense decreased $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the linked quarter. The decrease in total non-interest expense was primarily due to a decreases of $0.9 million in salaries and employee benefit costs and $0.4 million in other non-interest expense, partially offset by increases of $0.5 million in professional fees and $0.4 million in data processing and software expenses. The decrease in salaries and employee benefit costs was due to annual expenses that occur in the first quarter of each year including stock-based compensation expenses attributable to the forfeiture rate true-up on stock vested along with up-front expense on stock grants to certain retirement-eligible employees, and health savings account ("HSA") contributions.
Compared to the second quarter of 2024, total non-interest expense increased $1.6 million, or 2%. The increase in total non-interest expense was primarily driven by increases of $2.3 million in salaries and employee benefit costs, which were driven by higher sales-based incentive, medical costs, and payroll taxes, $0.7 million in professional fees, and $0.6 million in data processing and software expense, offset by decreases of $1.6 million in other non-interest expense, driven by a one-time $1.3 million true-up of corporate expenses recorded in the second quarter of 2024, and $0.6 million in amortization of other intangible assets.
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, total non-interest expense increased $3.9 million, or 3%, compared to the first six months of 2024. The increase was driven by increases of (i) $3.3 million in salaries and employee benefits costs, which were driven by higher sales-based incentive and medical costs, (ii) $1.8 million in data processing and software expenses, (iii) $0.8 million in professional fees, and (iv) $0.6 million in operating lease expense, partially offset by decreases of $1.2 million in amortization of other intangible assets and $1.1 million in net occupancy and equipment expense.
The efficiency ratio for the second quarter of 2025 was 59.3%, compared to 60.7% for the linked quarter and 59.2% for the second quarter of 2024. The efficiency ratio improved compared to the linked quarter mainly as the result of higher higher net interest income and lower non-interest expenses. The efficiency ratio for the first six months of 2025 was 60.0%, compared to 58.6% for the first six months of 2024. The efficiency ratio increased compared to the prior year first six months due to the increase in non-interest expense and lower net interest income.
Peoples recorded income tax expense of $6.2 million with an effective tax rate of 22.7% for the second quarter of 2025, compared to income tax expense of $7.0 million with an effective tax rate of 22.4% for the linked quarter, and income tax expense of $6.9 million with an effective tax rate of 19.1% for the second quarter of 2024. The decrease in income tax expense when compared to the prior quarter was primarily due to lower net income. Peoples' income tax expense for the first half of 2025 was $13.3 million with an effective tax rate of 22.6%, compared to $15.1 million with an effective tax rate of 20.5% for the same period of 2024.
Total assets were $9.54 billion as of June 30, 2025, $9.25 billion at March 31, 2025, $9.25 billion at December 31, 2024, and $9.23 billion at June 30, 2024. Total assets at June 30, 2025 increased when compared to at March 31, 2025 primarily due to increases in period-end loan and lease balances. The period-end total loan and lease balances at June 30, 2025 increased $173.1 million, or 11% annualized, compared to at March 31, 2025. The increase in the period-end total loan and lease balances was primarily driven by increases of $63.6 million in commercial and industrial loans, $29.8 million in residential real estate loans, $22.2 million in construction loans, $17.7 million in other commercial real estate loans, $13.5 million in premium finance loans, and $18.5 million in Vantage leases, offset by a decrease of $13.9 million in North Star leases. Total assets at June 30, 2025 increased compared to at June 30, 2024 due to increases of $276.2 million in total loans and leases and $135.2 million in total investment securities, partially offset by a decrease of $49.8 million in total cash and cash equivalents.
Total liabilities were $8.39 billion at June 30, 2025, up from $8.11 billion at March 31, 2025, $8.14 billion at December 31, 2024, and $8.15 billion at June 30, 2024. The increase in total liabilities when compared to at March 31, 2025 was primarily due to an increase of $377.6 million in short-term borrowings, partially offset by a decrease of $97.5 million in period-end total deposits. The increase in total liabilities when compared to at June 30, 2024 was primarily due to a $339.4 million increase in period-end deposits, partially offset with a decrease of $85.9 million in short-term borrowings. The increase in deposits was primarily driven by an increase of $192.4 million in retail certificates of deposit, driven by current promotional offerings, an increase of $58.4 million in money market deposit accounts, an increase of $58.0 million in non-interest-bearing deposits, and an increase of $30.0 million in brokered certificates of deposit.
Total stockholders' equity at June 30, 2025 increased $15.5 million compared to at March 31, 2025, which was primarily due to net income for the quarter of $21.2 million and a decrease of $5.4 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss, partially offset by dividends paid of $14.6 million. Accumulated unrealized losses related to the available-for-sale investment securities portfolio were $90.9 million and $96.6 million at June 30, 2025 and at March 31, 2025, respectively. Total stockholders' equity at June 30, 2025 increased $41.8 million, or 4%, compared to at December 31, 2024, which was due to net income of $45.5 million in the first six months of 2025 and a decrease of $20.1 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss, partially offset by dividends paid of $28.8 million. Total stockholders' equity at June 30, 2025 increased by $75.5 million compared to at June 30, 2024 and was impacted by net income of $104.2 million in the last twelve months and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $19.9 million, partially offset by dividends paid of $57.2 million.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Interest Income
Net interest income, the amount by which interest income exceeds interest expense, remains Peoples' largest source of revenue. The amount of net interest income earned by Peoples each quarter is affected by various factors, including changes in market interest rates due to the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy, the level and degree of pricing competition for loans and deposits in Peoples’ markets, and the amount and composition of Peoples' earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.
Net interest margin, which is calculated by dividing fully tax-equivalent ("FTE") net interest income by average interest-earning assets, serves as an important measurement of the net revenue stream generated by the volume, mix and pricing of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. FTE net interest income is calculated by increasing interest income to convert tax-exempt income earned on obligations of states and political subdivisions and tax-exempt loans to the pre-tax equivalent of taxable income using a federal statutory corporate income tax rate of 21% for all period presented.
The following table details the calculation of FTE net interest income:

(a)The change in interest due to both rate and volume has been allocated to rate and volume changes in proportion to the relationship of the dollar amounts of the change in each.
(b)Interest income and yields are presented on a fully tax-equivalent basis, using a 21% statutory federal corporate income tax rate.
Net interest income was $87.6 million for the second quarter of 2025 and increased $2.3 million when compared to the linked quarter. Net interest margin was 4.15% for the second quarter of 2025, compared to 4.12% for the linked quarter. The increase in net interest income and margin was primarily driven by lower deposit and borrowing costs.
Net interest income for the second quarter of 2025 increased $1.0 million, or 1%, compared to the second quarter of 2024. Net interest margin decreased 3 basis points when compared to the second quarter of 2024. The increase in net interest income was primarily driven by higher loan balances. The decrease in net interest margin was impacted by reductions in loan yields, driven by lower accretion income, partially offset with lower funding costs.
For the first six months of 2025, net interest income decreased $0.4 million compared to the first six months of 2024, while net interest margin decreased 8 basis points to 4.14%. The decrease in net interest income and net interest margin for the first six months of 2025 compared to the first six months of 2024 was primarily driven by lower accretion income.
Accretion income, net of amortization expense, from acquisitions was $2.6 million for the second quarter of 2025, $3.5 million for the linked quarter and $5.8 million for the second quarter of 2024, which added 12 basis points, 17 basis points and 28 basis points, respectively, to net interest margin. The decrease in accretion income for the second quarter of 2025 when compared to the linked quarter and the second quarter of 2024 was driven by fewer loan payoffs and more accretion income recognized in 2024 from the Limestone Merger. Accretion income, net of amortization expense, was $6.1 million and $12.3 million for the first six months of 2025 and 2024, respectively. Accretion income added 15 basis points and 30 basis points to net interest margin for the first six months of 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in accretion income for the first six months of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 was due to less accretion recognized from the Limestone Merger.

Provision for credit losses | $ | 16,642 | | $ | 10,190 | | $ | 5,683 | | | $ | 26,832 | | $ | 11,785 | |
The provision for credit losses recorded represents the amount needed to maintain the appropriate level of the allowance for credit losses based on management’s quarterly estimates. The provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2025 was primarily driven by (i) net charge offs, (ii) an increase in reserves for individually-analyzed loans and leases, (iii) an increase in reserves for leases originated by our North Star Leasing division, (iv) a periodic refresh in loss drivers utilized within the CECL model, (v) deterioration in the economic forecasts used within the CECL model, and (vi) loan growth. The provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2025 was primarily driven by net charge-offs. The provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2024 was driven by (i) higher net charge-offs, (ii) an increase in reserves for individually analyzed loans and leases, and (iii) loan growth.
For the first half of 2025, the provision for credit losses was mainly a result of (i) net charge offs, (ii) an increase in reserves for individually-analyzed loans and leases, (iii) an increase in reserves for leases originated by our North Star Leasing division, (iv) a periodic refresh in loss drivers utilized within the CECL model, (v) deterioration in the economic forecasts used within the CECL model, and (vi) loan growth. For the same period of 2024 the provision for credit losses was driven by (i) higher net charge-offs, (ii) an increase in reserves for individually analyzed loans and leases, and (iii) loan growth.
Additional information regarding changes in the allowance for credit losses and loan credit quality can be found later in this MD&A under the caption “FINANCIAL CONDITION - Allowance for Credit Losses.”
Net Gain (Loss) Included in Total Non-Interest Income
Net gain (loss) includes net gains and losses on investment securities, asset disposals and other transactions, which are recognized in total non-interest income. The following table details Peoples’ net losses for the periods presented:

The net loss on other assets for all periods presented was driven by losses recorded on repossessed assets. The net loss on investment securities reported for the second quarter of 2024 was attributable to a loss recorded on a contingent call of a security.
Total Non-Interest Income, Excluding Net Gains and Losses
Total non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, comprised 24% of Peoples' total revenues (defined as net interest income plus total non-interest income excluding net gains and losses) for the second quarter of 2025, 24% for the linked quarter, and 22% for the second quarter of 2024. For the first six months of 2025, total non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses, totaled 24% of total revenue compared to 23% for the same period in 2024.
For the second quarter of 2025, electronic banking ("e-banking") income comprised the largest portion of Peoples' total non-interest income, excluding net gains and losses. Peoples' electronic banking services include ATM and debit cards, direct deposit services, internet and mobile banking, and remote deposit capture, and serve as alternative delivery channels to traditional sales offices for providing services to customers. The following table details Peoples' e-banking income:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

E-banking income | $ | 6,272 | | $ | 5,885 | | $ | 6,470 | | | $ | 12,157 | | $ | 12,516 | |
Peoples' e-banking income is derived largely from ATM and debit cards, as other services are mainly provided at no charge to customers. The amount of e-banking income is largely dependent on the timing and volume of customer activity.

| | | | | | |
Peoples' insurance income for the second quarter of 2025 decreased $1.5 million when compared to the linked quarter primarily due to seasonal performance-based commissions, which are annual in nature and typically occur in the first quarter of each year. Insurance income for the second quarter of 2025 increased when compared to the second quarter of 2024 due to higher commissions. Insurance income in the first half of 2025 remained flat compared to the same period of 2024.
Peoples' trust and investment income, which includes fiduciary income, brokerage income, and employee benefit fees, continued to be based primarily upon the value of assets under administration and management, with additional income generated from transaction commissions, cross-selling of products and additional retirement plan services business. The following table details Peoples’ trust and investment income:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Trust and investment income | $ | 5,281 | | $ | 5,061 | | $ | 4,999 | | | $ | 10,342 | | $ | 9,598 | |
Fiduciary income and brokerage income in the second quarter of 2025 increased when compared to the linked quarter and to the second quarter of 2024 and was driven by an increase in assets under administration and management. Trust and investment income increased $0.7 million for the first half of 2025 when compared to 2024, due to higher brokerage income, primarily reflecting the increase in assets under management.
The following table details Peoples' assets under administration and management:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

The increase in assets under administration and management at June 30, 2025 compared to at March 31, 2025 was driven by market value fluctuations. The increase in assets under administration and management at June 30, 2025 when compared to at June 30, 2024 was primarily due to growth, as Peoples added new accounts and the underlying market values of assets under management grew.
Deposit account service charges are based on the recovery of costs associated with services provided. The following table details Peoples' deposit account service charges:

Deposit account service charges | $ | 4,059 | | $ | 4,015 | | $ | 4,339 | | | $ | 8,074 | | $ | 8,562 | |
The amount of deposit account service charges, particularly fees for overdrafts and non-sufficient funds, is largely dependent on the timing and volume of customer activity. Management periodically evaluates its cost recovery fees to ensure they are reasonable based on operational costs and similar to fees charged in Peoples' markets by competitors. Deposit account service charges remained relatively flat for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the linked quarter. Deposit account service charges decreased when comparing the second quarter of 2025 to the second quarter of 2024. For the first half of 2025, total deposit account services charges decreased by $0.5 million from the same period of 2024, driven by timing of customer activity.

| Three Months Ended | | Six Months Ended |
| June 30, 2025 | March 31, 2025 | June 30, 2024 | | June 30, |
(Dollars in thousands) | | 2025 | 2024 |
| | | | | | |
Lease income | 4,189 | | 3,446 | | 2,147 | | | 7,635 | | 4,163 | |
Other non-interest income | 1,478 | | 1,472 | | 1,141 | | | 2,950 | | 2,059 | |
Bank owned life insurance income | 1,112 | | 1,133 | | 1,037 | | | 2,245 | | 2,537 | |
Mortgage banking income | 220 | | 396 | | 243 | | | 616 | | 564 | |
Lease income is primarily comprised of (i) operating lease income, (ii) gains on the early termination of leases, net of any associated purchase accounting adjustments, (iii) month-to-month lease payments beyond maturity of the net investment in the lease, net of any associated purchase accounting adjustment, (iv) fees received for referrals, (v) gains and losses recognized on the sales of
residual assets, net of any purchase accounting impact, and (vi) syndication income. Lease income for the second quarter of 2025 increased compared to the linked quarter due to gains on early terminated Vantage leases. The increase when compared to the second quarter of 2024 was driven by increases in gains on terminated leases, operating lease income, and month-to-month lease income. Lease income increased $3.5 million for the first six months of 2025 when compared to the same period of 2024 due to gains on early Vantage lease terminations and an increase in operating lease income.
Other non-interest income remained flat for the three months ended June 30, 2025 when compared to the linked quarter and increased $0.3 million compared to the second quarter of 2024 due to an increase in swap fee income. For the first half of 2025, other non-interest income increased by $0.9 million from the same period of 2024, primarily due to the increase in swap fee income which is driven by customer demand.
Bank owned life insurance income for the second quarter of 2025 remained flat when compared to the linked quarter and the prior year quarter. Bank owned life insurance income decreased for the first half of 2025 when compared to the same period of 2024 primarily due to death benefits recorded in 2024.
Mortgage banking income is comprised mostly of net gains from the origination and sale of real estate loans in the secondary market, and, to a lesser extent, servicing income for loans sold with servicing retained. As a result, the amount of income recognized by Peoples is largely dependent on customer demand and long-term interest rates for residential real estate loans offered in the secondary market. Mortgage banking income for the second quarter of 2025 decreased when compared to each of the prior periods and was primarily driven by the decreased volume in loans sold as more production has been kept on the balance sheet relative to prior periods. Mortgage banking income increased for the first six months of 2025 when compared to the same period of 2024 due to higher production.
In the second quarter of 2025, Peoples sold $0.3 million in loans into the secondary market with servicing retained and $10.3 million in loans with servicing released, compared to $0.2 million and $4.7 million, respectively, in the first quarter of 2025, and $2.6 million and $11.8 million, respectively, in the second quarter of 2024. For the first six months of 2025, Peoples sold $0.5 million in loans into the secondary market with servicing retained, and $10.3 million with servicing released, compared to $2.7 million and $18.8 million, respectively, for the first six months of 2024.
Non-Interest Expense
Salaries and employee benefit costs remain Peoples' largest non-interest expense, accounting for over one-half of total non-interest expense. The following table details Peoples' salaries and employee benefit costs:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended | | Six Months Ended |
| June 30, 2025 | March 31, 2025 | June 30, 2024 | | June 30, |

Base salaries and wages | $ | 24,942 | | $ | 24,618 | | $ | 24,437 | | | $ | 49,560 | | $ | 49,234 | |
Sales-based and incentive compensation | 6,181 | | 6,491 | | 5,404 | | | 12,672 | | 10,658 | |
Employee benefits | 5,692 | | 4,522 | | 4,862 | | | 10,214 | | 8,800 | |

Salaries and employee benefit costs | $ | 38,893 | | $ | 39,821 | | $ | 36,564 | | | $ | 78,714 | | $ | 75,457 | |
Full-time equivalent employees: | | | | | | |
Actual at end of period | 1,477 | | 1,460 | | 1,489 | | | 1,477 | | 1,489 | |
Average during the period | 1,462 | | 1,467 | | 1,492 | | | 1,478 | | 1,491 | |
Base salaries and wages for the second quarter of 2025 and the first six months of 2025 increased compared to all prior periods. The increases when compared to the second quarter of 2024 and the first six months of 2024 were primarily driven by annual merit increases.
Sales-based and incentive compensation decreased for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the linked quarter driven by a decrease in corporate incentives. Sales-based and incentive compensation increased compared the second quarter of 2024 due to an increase in corporate incentives. Sales-based and incentive compensation increased for the first half of 2025 when compare to 2024, due to an increase in corporate incentives and insurance commissions.
The increase in employee benefits for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the linked quarter was primarily related to higher medical costs and an adjustment related to prior period nonqualified deferred compensation expense. Employee benefits increased for the second quarter of 2025 and the first six months of 2025 when compared to the same periods for 2024 due to higher medical costs.
Payroll taxes and other employment costs for the second quarter of 2025 decreased compared to the linked quarter due to seasonal expenses recognized in the first quarter of each year. For the first six months of 2025, payroll taxes and other employment costs increased slightly compared to the same period of 2024.
Stock-based compensation is generally recognized over the vesting period, which generally ranges from immediate vesting to vesting at the end of three years. An adjustment is made at the vesting date to reverse expense relating to forfeitures for performance awards, and at the date of forfeiture to reverse expense for non-vested restricted common share awards. Stock grants to retirement eligible grantees are expensed either immediately or over a shorter period than three years. The majority of Peoples' stock-based compensation is attributable to annual equity-based incentive awards to employees, which are awarded in the first quarter of each year based upon Peoples achieving certain performance goals during the prior year, and are generally contingent on employment through the vesting period.
Deferred personnel costs represent the portion of current period salaries and employee benefit costs considered to be direct loan origination costs. These costs are capitalized and recognized over the life of the loan as a yield adjustment in interest income. As a result, the amount of deferred personnel costs for each period corresponds directly with the volume of loan originations, coupled with the average deferred costs per loan that are updated annually at the beginning of each year. Deferred personnel costs for the second quarter of 2025 increased when compared to the first quarter of 2025 and remained relatively flat compared to the second quarter of 2024. Similarly, deferred personnel costs increased for the first half of 2025 when compared to 2024.

Net occupancy and equipment expense | $ | 5,690 | | $ | 5,612 | | $ | 6,142 | | | $ | 11,302 | | $ | 12,425 | |
Net occupancy and equipment expense remained flat for the second quarter compared to the linked quarter and decreased $0.5 million compared to the second quarter of 2024 primarily due to a one time rent expense true-up adjustment recorded in the second quarter of 2024. Net occupancy and equipment expense for the first half of 2025 decreased when compared to the same period of the previous year due to an adjustment of property tax accruals resulting from a review of recent assessments.

Data processing and software expenses for the second quarter of 2025 increased over all periods presented due to costs associated with recent technology projects.
Professional fees for the second quarter of 2025 increased when compared to the linked quarter and to the second quarter of 2024 due to increased costs of professional services, primarily related to our credit card portfolio, and higher legal expenses incurred.
Professional fees increased for the first half of 2025 when compared to 2024 due to increased exam and audit fees and higher legal expenses.
Amortization of other intangible assets for the second quarter of 2025 remained flat compared to the linked quarter and decreased $0.6 million compared to the prior year quarter due to decreases in amortization on core deposits and customer relationship intangibles. Amortization of other intangible assets decreased for the first half of 2025 when compared to 2024 due to decreases in amortization on core deposits and customer relationship intangibles.
Peoples' e-banking expense is comprised of costs associated with debit and ATM cards and is driven by the timing and volume of customer activity.

Communication expense remained relatively flat for the second quarter of 2025 when compared to both the linked quarter and the same period of the prior year. Communication expense decreased slightly for the first half of 2025 when compared to 2024.
Peoples is subject to state franchise taxes, which are based largely on Peoples' equity, in the states where Peoples has a physical presence. Franchise tax expense also includes the Ohio Financial Institution Tax ("FIT"), which is a business privilege tax that is imposed on financial institutions organized for profit and doing business in Ohio. The Ohio FIT is based on the total equity capital in proportion to the taxpayer's gross receipts in Ohio as of the most recent year-end. The decrease in franchise tax expense for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the linked quarter related to a one-time refund from the State of Ohio.

The decrease in income tax expense when compared to the prior quarter is primarily due to lower pre-tax income. The effective tax rate in the prior year quarter was lower due to a $1.1 million one-time benefit related to a prior year amended return. Peoples recorded income tax expense of $13.3 million and $15.1 million, through the first six months of 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease for the first six months of 2025 compared to 2024 was driven by lower pre-tax income.
Additional information regarding income taxes can be found in "Note 13. Income Taxes" of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Peoples' 2024 Form 10-K.
Pre-Provision Net Revenue (Non-US GAAP)
Pre-provision net revenue ("PPNR") has become a key financial measure used by state and federal bank regulatory agencies when assessing the capital adequacy of financial institutions. PPNR is defined as net interest income plus total non-interest income, excluding all gains and losses, minus total non-interest expense. As a result, PPNR represents the earnings capacity that can be either retained in order to build capital or used to absorb unexpected losses and preserve existing capital. This measure represents a Non-US GAAP financial measure since it excludes the provision for (recovery of) credit losses and all gains and losses included in earnings.
The following table provides a reconciliation of this Non-US GAAP financial measure to the amounts reported in Peoples' Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods presented:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended | | Six Months Ended |
| June 30, 2025 | March 31, 2025 | June 30, 2024 | | June 30, |

| | | | | | |
| | | | | | |
| | | | | | |
| | | | | | |
The increase in the PPNR for the second quarter of 2025 compared to the linked quarter and the second quarter of 2024 was driven by an increase in net interest income due to higher income on loans and lower deposit and borrowing costs. PPNR for the first half of 2025 decreased slightly compared to 2024, primarily driven by lower accretion income, partially offset by lower funding costs.
Efficiency Ratio (Non-US GAAP)
The efficiency ratio is a key financial measure used to monitor performance. The efficiency ratio is calculated as total non-interest expense (less amortization of other intangible assets) as a percentage of FTE net interest income plus total non-interest income excluding net gains and losses. This measure is Non-US GAAP since it excludes amortization of other intangible assets and all gains and losses included in earnings, and uses FTE net interest income.
The following table provides a reconciliation of this Non-US GAAP financial measure to the amounts reported in Peoples' Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods presented:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

(a) Interest income and yields are presented on a fully tax-equivalent basis, using a 21% statutory federal corporate income tax rate.
The efficiency ratio for the second quarter of 2025 was 59.3%, compared to 60.7% for the linked quarter and 59.2% for the second quarter of 2024. The efficiency ratio improved compared to the linked quarter mainly as the result of higher net interest income and lower non-interest expenses. The efficiency ratio increased compared to the prior year first six months due to the increase in non-interest expense and lower net interest income. Peoples continues to focus on controlling expenses, while recognizing necessary costs in order to continue growing the business.
Return on Average Assets Adjusted for Non-Core Items Ratio (Non-US GAAP)
In addition to return on average assets, management uses return on average assets adjusted for non-core items to monitor performance. The return on average assets adjusted for non-core items ratio represents a Non-US GAAP financial measure since it excludes the after-tax impact of all gains and losses and acquisition-related expenses.
The following table provides a reconciliation of this Non-US GAAP financial measure to the amounts reported in Peoples' Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the periods presented:

The return on average assets and the return on average assets adjusted for non-core items for the second quarter of 2025 decreased when compared to the linked quarter due to lower annualized net income. The decrease in the return on average assets and return on average assets adjusted for non-core items for the second quarter of 2025, compared to the second quarter of 2024, was attributable to a decrease in annualized net income driven by an increase in provision for credit losses and an increase in average assets. The decrease in return on average assets and return on average assets adjusted for non-core items for the first half of 2025 when compared to the same period of 2024 was primarily driven by a decrease in annualized net income from an increase in provision for credit losses and an increase in average assets.
Return on Average Tangible Equity Ratio (Non-US GAAP)
The return on average tangible equity ratio is a key financial measure used to monitor performance. This ratio is calculated as annualized net income (less the after-tax impact of amortization of other intangible assets) divided by average tangible equity. This
measure is Non-US GAAP since it excludes amortization of other intangible assets from earnings and the impact of goodwill and other intangible assets acquired through acquisitions on total stockholders' equity.

The return on total average stockholders' equity and average tangible equity ratios decreased when compared to the linked quarter due to a decrease in annualized net income. The decreases in the return on total average stockholders' equity and average tangible equity ratios for the second quarter and the first six months of 2025 compared to the same periods of 2024 was driven by lower net income.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Cash and Cash Equivalents
At June 30, 2025, Peoples' interest-bearing deposits in other banks had decreased $45.0 million from December 31, 2024. The total cash and cash equivalents balance included $60.0 million of excess cash reserves being maintained at the FRB of Cleveland at June 30, 2025, compared to $104.7 million at December 31, 2024. The amount of excess cash reserves maintained is dependent upon Peoples' daily liquidity position, which is driven primarily by changes in deposit and loan balances.
Through the first six months of 2025, Peoples' total cash and cash equivalents decreased $31.6 million, which reflected cash outflows of $331.0 million for investing activities, partially offset by cash inflows of $214.4 million for financing activities and $85.0 million from operating activities. Peoples' use of cash in investing activities reflected a $252.8 million net increase in loans held for investment and net cash outflows of $124.7 million related to the purchases of held-to-maturity investment securities. These were partially offset by net cash inflows for available-for-sale investment securities of $58.8 million. The cash provided by financing activities was driven by a net increase in short-term borrowings of $203.4 million.
Further information regarding the management of Peoples' liquidity position can be found later in this discussion under “Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity.”

(a) Includes all loans acquired, and related loan discount recorded as part of acquisition accounting, in 2012 or thereafter. Loans that were acquired and subsequently re-underwritten are reported as originated upon execution of such credit actions (for example, renewals and increases in lines of credit).
The period-end total loan and lease balances at June 30, 2025 increased $173.1 million, or 11% annualized, compared to at March 31, 2025. The increase in the period-end loan and lease balances at June 30, 2025 compared to March 31, 2025 was primarily driven by increases of $63.6 million in commercial and industrial loans, $29.8 million in residential real estate loans, $22.2 million in construction loans, $17.7 million in other commercial real estate loans, and $13.5 million in premium finance loans. The increase in the period-end loan and lease balances at June 30, 2025 compared to at June 30, 2024 was primarily driven by loan growth of $149.3 million in commercial and industrial loans, $88.6 million in residential real estate loans, and $52.2 million in commercial real estate loans, partially offset by decreases of $30.6 million and $15.7 million in leases and premium finance loans, respectively.
Loan Concentration
Peoples categorizes its commercial loans according to standard industry classifications and monitors for concentrations in a single industry or multiple industries that could be impacted by changes in economic conditions in a similar manner. Peoples' commercial lending activities continue to be spread over a diverse range of businesses from all sectors of the economy, with no single industry comprising over 12% of Peoples' total loan portfolio.
Loans secured by commercial real estate, including commercial construction loans, continued to comprise the largest portion of Peoples' loan portfolio at June 30, 2025. The following tables provide information regarding the largest concentrations of commercial construction loans and other commercial real estate loans within the loan portfolio at June 30, 2025:

(a) All other total exposures by industry are less than 2% of the Total Exposure.
Peoples' commercial lending activities continue to focus on lending opportunities within Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia, Virginia, Washington, D.C. and Maryland. For all other states, the aggregate outstanding balances of commercial loans in each state were less than 4% of total loans at June 30, 2025 and at December 31, 2024. The repayment of premium finance loans is secured by the underlying insurance policy prepaid premium, and therefore, geography is not a factor from a repayment perspective. The repayment of leases is secured by the underlying equipment collateral and not real estate, which mitigates geographic risk.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The amount of the allowance for credit losses at the end of each period represents management's estimate of expected losses from existing loans based upon its quarterly analysis of the loan portfolio. While this process involves allocations being made to specific loans and pools of loans, the entire allowance is available for all losses expected within the loan portfolio.
The following details management's allocation of the allowance for credit losses:

As a percent of total loans | 1.13 | % | 1.01 | % | 1.00 | % | 1.06 | % | 1.05 | % |
The increase in the allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2025 compared to at March 31, 2025 and at June 30, 2024 was due to (i) an increase in reserves for individually-analyzed loans and leases, (ii) an increase in reserves for leases originated by our North Star Leasing division, (iii) a periodic refresh in loss drivers utilized within the CECL model, (iv) deterioration in the economic forecasts used within the CECL model, and (v) loan growth.
Additional information regarding Peoples' allowance for credit losses can be found in "Note 1 Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in Peoples' 2024 Form 10-K and "Note 4 Loans and Leases" of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 10-Q.

Total net charge-offs during the second quarter of 2025 were $7.0 million, or 0.43% of average total loans on an annualized basis, compared to $8.1 million, or 0.52% of average total loans on an annualized basis, during the linked quarter and $4.2 million, or 0.27% of average total loans on an annualized basis, during the second quarter of 2024. The decrease in net charge-offs when compared to the linked quarter was primarily related to improvements of $0.6 million in the lease portfolio and $0.4 million in indirect consumer loans, partially offset by an increase of $0.2 million in net charge-offs in commercial and industrial loans. The net charge-offs for the lease portfolio remain higher than historic norms and are the driver for the increase over June 30, 2024.

Peoples' NPAs decreased from 0.50% of total assets at March 31, 2025 to 0.49% of total assets at June 30, 2025. Total loans 90+ days past due and accruing decreased at June 30, 2025 compared to June 30, 2024 driven down by leases. During the second quarter of 2025, criticized loans increased $17.9 million, while classified loans increased $1.2 million when compared to at March 31, 2025. The increase in criticized loans was driven by loan downgrades associated with one customer relationship, while the increase in the amounts of classified loans compared to at March 31, 2025 and at June 30, 2024 was driven by loan downgrades. The increase in NPAs compared to at March 31, 2025, was primarily driven by an increase in premium finance loans that were 90+ days past due and accruing. The decrease in NPAs compared to at June 30, 2024, was driven primarily by a reductions in leases that were 90+ days past due and accruing and commercial OREO, partially offset by an increase in residential real estate loans that were on nonaccrual status as of June 30, 2025.

(a)The sum of amounts presented is considered total demand deposits.
At June 30, 2025, period-end total deposits decreased $97.5 million compared to at March 31, 2025, driven by decreases of $52.5 million in governmental deposits, $39.8 million in money market deposits, $28.3 million in interest-bearing demand accounts, and $16.2 million in brokered deposits, partially offset by an increase of $39.3 million in retail certificates of deposit. The decrease in governmental deposit accounts was due to the seasonality of those balances while the decrease in brokered deposit accounts was due to a strategic shift to other funding sources at lower rates. The increase in retail certificates of deposits was due to current specials being offered.
Compared to June 30, 2024, period-end deposit balances increased $339.4 million, or 5%. The increase in total deposits was primarily driven by increases of $192.4 million in retail certificates of deposit, $58.4 million in money market deposits, and $58.1 million in non-interest bearing deposits. These were partially offset by a decrease of $24.6 million in interest-bearing demand accounts. The increase in retail certificates of deposits was driven by special promotional rate offerings over the past year.
As part of its funding strategy, Peoples hedges 90-day brokered CDs or FHLB advances with interest rate swaps. The interest rate swaps pay a fixed rate of interest while receiving a floating rate component of interest tied to term SOFR, which offsets the rate on the brokered CDs or FHLB advances. As of June 30, 2025, Peoples had six effective interest rate swaps, with an aggregate notional value of $55.0 million, which were designated as cash flow hedges. Peoples continually evaluates the overall balance sheet position given the interest rate environment.
Borrowed Funds

Total borrowed funds, which include overnight borrowings, are mainly a function of loan growth and changes in total deposit balances. Other long-term borrowings include trust preferred securities and floating rate junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures. Total borrowed funds at June 30, 2025 increased compared to at March 31, 2025 due to higher FHLB overnight borrowings. Total borrowed funds decreased compared to at June 30, 2024 due to the payoff of the Bank Term Funding Program, partially offset by an increase in FHLB overnight borrowings.
Capital/Stockholders’ Equity
At June 30, 2025, capital levels for both Peoples and Peoples Bank remained substantially higher than the minimum amounts needed to be considered "well capitalized" institutions under applicable banking regulations. These higher capital levels reflect Peoples' desire to maintain a strong capital position. In order to avoid limitations on dividends, equity repurchases and compensation, Peoples must exceed the three minimum required ratios by at least the capital conservation buffer of 2.50%, which applies to the common equity tier 1 ("CET1") ratio, the tier 1 capital ratio and the total risk-based capital ratio. At June 30, 2025, Peoples had a capital conservation buffer of 5.71%.
The following table details Peoples' risk-based capital levels and corresponding ratios:

Peoples' risk-based capital ratios at June 30, 2025 decreased when compared to at March 31, 2025 due to the increase in assets, driven by loan growth in the quarter.
In addition to traditional capital measurements, management uses tangible capital measures to evaluate the adequacy of Peoples' stockholders' equity. Such ratios represent Non-US GAAP financial measures since their calculation removes the impact of goodwill and other intangible assets acquired through acquisitions on amounts reported in the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. Management believes this information is useful to investors since it facilitates the comparison of Peoples' operating performance, financial condition and trends to peers, especially those without a similar level of intangible assets to that of Peoples. Further, intangible assets generally are difficult to convert into cash, especially during a financial crisis, and could decrease substantially in
value should there be deterioration in the overall franchise value. As a result, tangible equity represents a conservative measure of the capacity for Peoples to incur losses but remain solvent.
The following table reconciles the calculation of these Non-US GAAP financial measures to amounts reported in Peoples' Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements:

Tangible book value per common share increased to $21.18 at June 30, 2025 compared to $20.68 at March 31, 2025. The change in tangible book value per common share was due to tangible equity increasing during the second quarter of 2025 primarily due to a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss over the last three months. Tangible book value per common share at June 30, 2025 increased compared to at June 30, 2024 primarily due to net income over the last twelve months.
Interest Rate Sensitivity and Liquidity
While Peoples is exposed to various business risks, the risks relating to interest rate sensitivity and liquidity are major risks that can materially impact future results of operations and financial condition due to their complexity and dynamic nature. The objective of Peoples' asset-liability management function is to measure and manage these risks in order to optimize net interest income within the constraints of prudent capital adequacy, liquidity and safety. This objective requires Peoples to focus on interest rate risk exposure and adequate liquidity through its management of the mix of assets and liabilities, their related cash flows and the rates earned and paid on those assets and liabilities. Ultimately, the asset-liability management function is intended to guide management in the acquisition and disposition of earning assets and selection of appropriate funding sources.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk ("IRR") is one of the most significant risks arising in the normal course of business of financial services companies like Peoples. IRR is the potential for economic loss due to future interest rate changes that can impact the earnings stream, as well as market values, of financial assets and financial liabilities. Peoples' exposure to IRR is due primarily to differences in the maturity or repricing of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. In addition, other factors, such as prepayments of loans and investment securities, or early withdrawal of deposits, can affect Peoples' exposure to IRR and impact interest costs or revenue streams.
Peoples has assigned overall management of IRR to its Asset-Liability Committee (the “ALCO”), which has established an IRR management policy that sets minimum requirements and guidelines for monitoring and managing the level of IRR, including the review of assumptions used in modeling IRR.
The following table shows the estimated changes in net interest income and the economic value of equity based upon a standard, parallel shock analysis with balances held constant (dollars in thousands):
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Increase (Decrease) in Interest Rate | Estimated Increase (Decrease) in Net Interest Income | | Estimated (Decrease) Increase in Economic Value of Equity |
(in Basis Points) | June 30, 2025 | | December 31, 2024 | | June 30, 2025 | | December 31, 2024 |
300 | $ | 33,082 | | | 9.0 | % | | $ | 10,471 | | 3.0 | % | | $ | (173,191) | | | (8.9) | % | | $ | (127,697) | | (7.2) | % |

(200) | (26,603) | | | (7.3) | % | | (19,818) | | (5.6) | % | | (112,648) | | | (5.8) | % | | (3,009) | | (0.2) | % |
(300) | (19,703) | | | (5.4) | % | | (19,964) | | (5.6) | % | | (241,704) | | | (12.4) | % | | (25,823) | | (1.5) | % |
This table uses a standard, parallel shock analysis for assessing the IRR to net interest income and the economic value of equity. A parallel shock assumes all points on the yield curve (one year, two year, three year, etc.) are directionally changed by the same degree. Management regularly assesses the impact of both increasing and decreasing interest rates. The table above shows the impact of upward and downward parallel shocks of 100, 200 and 300 basis points.
Estimated changes in net interest income and the economic value of equity are partially driven by assumptions regarding the rate at which non-maturity deposits will reprice given a move in short-term interest rates, as well as assumptions regarding prepayment speeds on mortgage-backed securities. These and other modeling assumptions are monitored closely by Peoples on an ongoing basis.
While parallel interest rate shock scenarios are useful in assessing the level of IRR inherent in the balance sheet, interest rates typically move in a nonparallel manner with differences in the timing, direction and magnitude of changes in short-term and long-term interest rates. Thus, any impact that might occur as a result of the Federal Reserve Board increasing short-term interest rates in the future could be offset by an inverse movement in long-term interest rates, and vice versa. For this reason, Peoples considers other interest rate scenarios in addition to analyzing the impact of parallel yield curve shifts. These include various flattening and steepening scenarios in which short-term and long-term interest rates move in different directions with varying magnitude. Peoples believes these scenarios to be more reflective of how interest rates change versus the severe parallel rate shocks described above. Given the shape of market yield curves at June 30, 2025, consideration of the bear steepener and bull steepener scenarios provide insights which were not captured by parallel shifts.
The bear steepener scenario highlights the risk to net interest income and economic value of equity when short-term interest rates remain constant while long-term interest rates rise. In such a scenario, Peoples' deposit and borrowing costs, which are generally correlated with short-term interest rates, remain constant, while asset yields, which are correlated with long-term interest rates, rise. At June 30, 2025, the bear steepener scenario produced an increase in net interest income of 1.4% and an increase in the economic value of equity of 3.1%.
The bull steepener scenario highlights the risk to net interest income and the economic value of equity when short-term rates fall faster than long-term rates. In such a scenario, Peoples' deposit and short-term borrowing costs, which are correlated with short-term rates, decrease, while long-term asset yields and long-term borrowing costs, which are more correlated with long-term rates, remain constant. Deposit costs decrease less quickly than variable rate asset yields over a short-term horizon but are mitigated to some extent over a longer horizon, resulting in a decreased amount of net interest income (margin) in a 12 month period and a relatively neutral impact to net interest income (margin) in a 24 month period. At June 30, 2025, the bull steepener scenario produced a decline of 0.9% to net interest income, as the impact of revised assumptions around deposit betas mitigate the impact of lower short-term rates over a 12-month horizon, and an increase in the economic value of equity of 0.6%.
Peoples has entered into interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. These interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and involve the receipt of variable rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for Peoples making fixed payments. As of June 30, 2025, Peoples had entered into six interest rate swap contracts with an aggregate notional value of $55.0 million. Additional information regarding Peoples’ interest rate swaps can be found in “Note 10 Derivative Financial Instruments” of the Notes to the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
At June 30, 2025, Peoples' Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheet was positioned to benefit from rising interest rates, while also mitigating the impact to net interest income decreasing rate scenarios. The table above illustrates this point as changes to net interest income increase in the rising interest rate scenarios.
Liquidity
In addition to IRR management, another major objective of the ALCO is to maintain a sufficient level of liquidity. In light of the recent bank failures, Peoples revisited the model assumptions, and determined the methods used by the ALCO to monitor and
evaluate the adequacy of Peoples Bank's liquidity position remain appropriate and are largely unchanged from those disclosed in Peoples' 2024 Form 10-K.
At June 30, 2025, Peoples Bank had liquid assets of $735.9 million, which represented 6.7% of total assets and unfunded loan commitments. Peoples also had an additional $142.7 million of unpledged investment securities not included in the measurement of liquid assets.
Management believes the current mix of short-term liquidity sources, loan and security portfolio cash flows, and availability of other funding sources will allow Peoples to meet anticipated cash obligations, as well as special needs and off-balance sheet commitments.
Off-Balance Sheet Activities and Contractual Obligations
In the normal course of business, Peoples is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk necessary to meet the financing needs of Peoples' customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. The instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets. The contractual amounts of these instruments express the extent of involvement Peoples has in these financial instruments.
Loan Commitments and Standby Letters of Credit
Loan commitments are made to accommodate the financial needs of Peoples' customers. Standby letters of credit are instruments issued by Peoples Bank guaranteeing the beneficiary payment by Peoples Bank in the event of default by Peoples Bank's customer in the performance of an obligation or service. Historically, most loan commitments and standby letters of credit expire unused. Peoples Bank's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counter-party to the financial instrument for loan commitments and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. Peoples Bank uses the same underwriting standards in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments. The amount of collateral obtained is based on management's credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant, and equipment, and income-producing commercial properties.
Peoples Bank routinely engages in activities that involve, to varying degrees, elements of risk that are not reflected in whole or in part in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. These activities are part of Peoples Bank's normal course of business and include traditional off-balance sheet credit-related financial instruments, interest rate contracts and commitments to make additional capital contributions in low-income housing tax credit investments. Traditional off-balance sheet credit-related financial instruments continue to represent the most significant off-balance sheet exposure.
The following table details the total contractual amount of loan commitments and standby letters of credit:

Based upon that evaluation, Peoples’ President and Chief Executive Officer and Peoples’ Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer have concluded that:
(a)information required to be disclosed by Peoples in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other reports Peoples files or submits under the Exchange Act would be accumulated and communicated to Peoples’ management, including its President and Chief Executive Officer and its Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure;
(b)information required to be disclosed by Peoples in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other reports Peoples files or submits under the Exchange Act would be recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms; and
(c)Peoples’ disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in Peoples' internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during Peoples' fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, Peoples’ internal control over financial reporting.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Peoples or one of its subsidiaries from time to time is engaged in various litigation matters including the defense of claims of improper loan or deposit practices or lending violations. In addition, in the ordinary course of their respective businesses or operations, Peoples or one of its subsidiaries may be named as a plaintiff, a defendant, or a party to a legal proceeding or any of their respective properties may be subject to various pending and threatened legal proceedings and various actual and potential claims. In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the outcome of such matters, Peoples cannot state what the eventual outcome of any such matters will be; however, based on management's current knowledge and after consultation with legal counsel, Peoples' management believes that damages, if any, and other amounts related to pending legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or liquidity of Peoples.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
There have been no material changes from those risk factors previously disclosed under “ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS” of Part I of Peoples’ 2024 Form 10-K. These risk factors are not the only risks Peoples faces.
