​

Coatesville, Pennsylvania, February 26, 2025 — PB Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: PBBK), the holding company for Presence Bank (the “Bank”), reported unaudited net income of $681,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and $1,772,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $409,000 and $1,919,000, respectively, for the same periods in 2023. Diluted earnings per share were $0.29 for the fourth quarter of 2024 and $0.76 for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $0.17 and $0.77, respectively, for the same periods in 2023.

Exhibit 99.1

Income Statement

​

Net interest income was $2.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and $11.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $2.8 million and $12.1 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2023. The increase for the three months ended December 31, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023 was primarily due to the increase in interest income on loans, partially offset by the increase in the interest expense on deposits. The decrease for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023 was primarily due to the increase in interest expense on deposits, partially offset by increases in interest income on loans and cash and federal funds sold. The increases in both interest income and interest expense were as a result of the high interest rate environment and increases in average interest earning assets and average interest bearing liabilities.

​

The Company recorded a reversal of provision for credit losses of $4,000 and $37,000 for the three months and year ended December 31, 2024 compared to a provision for credit losses of $62,000 and $632,000, respectively, for the same periods in 2023. The decrease in provision for credit losses for both the three months and year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to lower qualitative factor allocations within the Company’s current expected credit losses methodology and a lower required allowance for unfunded commitments due to a decline in volume of unfunded commitments. There were $108,000 of loan charge-offs during the fourth quarter of 2024, which were comprised primarily of a charge-off of one development loan originated in 2014. There were no charge-offs for the fourth quarter of 2023. There were $223,000 and $144,000 of loan charge-offs during 2024 and 2023, respectively. In addition there were $12,000 of overdraft protection charge-offs during 2024 and none for 2023. Delinquencies remain benign, reserves are deemed to be adequate as of December 31, 2024 and the allowance coverage ratio has remained strong. The allowance for credit losses was $4.4 million, or 1.25%, of loans outstanding at December 31, 2024 as compared to $4.5 million, or 1.38%, of loans outstanding at December 31, 2023. Total non-performing loans decreased to $1.1 million at December 31, 2024 compared to $1.4 million at December 31, 2023. The non-performing loans to total loans ratio decreased by 12 basis points to 0.32% at December 31, 2024 from 0.44% as of December 31, 2023.

Noninterest income was $662,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $203,000 and $785,000, respectively, for the same periods in 2023. The primary reason for the increase in noninterest income for the three months and year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the same prior year periods was due to a $487,000 gain on sale of the Oxford Branch in the fourth quarter of 2024. Coinciding with the sale of the Oxford Branch, the Bank relocated to a leased location less than 750 feet away from the previous branch.

​

Noninterest expense was $2.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and $10.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $2.4 million and $9.8 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2023. The increase for the three months and year ended December 31, 2024 was primarily due to increases in professional fees due to SEC and legal related expenses. The increases in professional fees were $125,000 and $165,000 when comparing the three months and year ended December 31, 2024 to the same periods in 2023, respectively. In addition, salaries and employee benefits increased $95,000 and $165,000 when comparing the three months and year ended December 31, 2024 to the same periods in 2023, respectively,

primarily due to salary increases to associates during the year and additional full time equivalents. Data and item processing increased $18,000 and $135,000 when comparing the three months and year ended December 31, 2024 to the same periods in 2023, respectively as the Company continues to invest in our information technology infrastructure.

Balance Sheet

​

Total assets increased $11.6 million or 2.6% to $451.3 million at December 31, 2024 from $439.7 million at December 31, 2023. The increase in assets was primarily due to increases in net loans receivable and cash and cash equivalents, partially offset by a decrease in debt securities available-for-sale. Cash and cash equivalents increased 16.5% to $37.8 million at December 31, 2024 from $32.4 million at December 31, 2023 as a result of deposit growth and maturities of securities during 2024. Gross loans increased $23.2 million or 7.1% to $349.8 million at December 31, 2024 from $326.6 million at December 31, 2023, primarily as a result of the increases in the commercial real estate portfolio, commercial and industrial and other loans as the Bank continues its focus on commercial lending. Management is monitoring the commercial real estate portfolio and concentrations, assessing their associated risks. As part of its risk management process, the Bank segments and stress tests its non-owner occupied commercial real estate portfolio. Approximately 83.5% or $126.2 million of this portfolio was subject to stress testing (loans having exposure under $500,000 and construction loans are not subject to stress testing). The commercial real estate portfolio has an average Loan-to-Value ratio of 59.2% and a Debt Service Coverage ratio of 1.41 times, exclusive of any sponsor or guarantor support at December 31, 2024. The commercial real estate portfolio is diverse with respect to both property type as well as location with limited concentrations.

The Bank’s hospitality portfolio is an area of market focus. Loan exposure to this segment totaled $25.5 million (seven hotel properties) at December 31, 2024. The average Loan-to-Value ratio was low at 58.5% with a strong Debt Service Coverage ratio of 1.90 times, exclusive of any sponsor or guarantor support at December 31, 2024. Two hotels were newly acquired; therefore, the debt service coverage is based on the projected cash flow. Guarantor support for the hospitality sector is strong and loans are supported by experienced hotel operators.

Debt securities available-for-sale decreased $17.8 million or 26.2% to $50.3 million at December 31, 2024 from $68.1 million at December 31, 2023 as a result of short-term treasury securities purchased during the fourth quarter of 2023 maturing in the first quarter of 2024 with the majority of the proceeds remaining in cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2024. The remaining weighted average life of our debt securities available-for-sale portfolio was 1.29 years at December 31, 2024.

We experienced deposit growth of $21.2 million or 6.4% to $354.2 million at December 31, 2024 from $333.0 million at December 31, 2023. Uninsured and uncollateralized deposits totaled approximately $38.1 million or 11.0% of the Bank’s total deposits, as of December 31, 2024. The Company maintains highly liquid sources of available funds in addition to cash and cash equivalents, including unused borrowing capacity with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh and the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia and available federal funds lines with other banks,

Exhibit 99.1

as well as unpledged available-for-sale debt securities. At December 31, 2024, available funding from these sources totaled 544.9% of uninsured and uncollateralized deposits. Stockholders’ equity increased $1.7 million to $48.7 million at December 31, 2024 from $47.0 million at December 31, 2023 primarily as a result of 2024 net income of $1.8 million and a decrease of $942,000 in accumulated other comprehensive loss, partially offset by stock repurchases of $1.7 million. The Company’s accumulated other comprehensive loss resulting from the unrealized losses on debt securities available-for-sale was 0.6% of total stockholders’ equity at December 31, 2024. The Bank’s stand-alone stockholders’ equity increased $3.3 million to $42.2 million at December 31, 2024 from $38.9 million at December 31, 2023 primarily as a result of 2024 net income for the Bank.
