ITHACA, N.Y., October 25, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Tompkins Financial Corporation (NYSE American: TMP)

Tompkins Financial Corporation ("Tompkins" or the "Company") reported diluted earnings per share of $1.30 for the third quarter of 2024, up 18.2% from the immediate prior quarter, and up 155.3% from the diluted earnings (loss) per share of $(2.35) reported in the third quarter of 2023. Net income for the third quarter of 2024 was $18.6 million, up $3.0 million or 18.9% compared to the second quarter of 2024, and up $52.0 million, or 155.9%, when compared to the net loss of $(33.4) million reported for the third quarter of 2023. The increase in diluted earnings per share and net income compared to the results for the third quarter of 2023 largely reflects the Company's sale of $429.6 million of available-for-sale securities, which resulted in a pre-tax loss of $62.9 million (or $3.34 per share) in the third quarter of 2023.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, diluted earnings (loss) per share were $3.59, up from $(0.39) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Year-to-date net income (loss) was $51.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, up $56.7 million when compared to $(5.5) million for the prior year period. The growth in year-to-date diluted earnings per share and net income was mainly due the Company's sale of $510.5 million of available-for-sale securities which resulted in a pre-tax loss of $70.0 million (or $3.69 per share) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

Tompkins President and CEO, Stephen Romaine, commented, "Our third quarter net income was up over 18% as compared to the second quarter, driven by a strengthening net interest margin and growth across our business. For the third quarter our net interest margin expanded 6 basis points, loan balances grew over 8% annualized and our fee-based services continue to provide diversified growing revenue as total noninterest income represented 31% of total revenue. Year-to-date, our operating results were further supported by lower expenses, as noninterest expenses were down 1.5% as compared to prior year. As we are seeing improving profitability we believe that we remain well positioned to continue to drive growth through quality customer relationships supported by our strong capital and liquidity."
