Norwood Financial reports Q1 adjusted EPS 38c, consensus 56c

Jim Donnelly, President and Chief Executive Officer of Norwood Financial (NWFL) Corp and Wayne Bank, stated, “The actions that we took in December 2024 to improve our capital and earnings have given us a great start to 2025. The portfolio repositioning has improved our net interest margin. That, coupled with strong annualized growth in loans and deposits, put us on a positive trajectory for 2025. We continue to benefit from lower deposit costs together with higher assets yields and our deposit growth has allowed us to lower our use of wholesale borrowings.”
