Harleysville Financial Corporation Announces Regular Cash Dividend and Third Quarter Earnings for Fiscal Year 2024

HARL

Harleysville Financial Corporation (OTCQX:HARL) reported today that the Company’s board of directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $.31 per share on the Company’s common stock. The cash dividend will be payable on August 14, 2024 to stockholders of record on July 31, 2024.

Net income for the third quarter was $2,186,000 or $.60 per diluted share compared to $2,801,000 or $.76 per diluted share for the same quarter last year.

Net income for the nine months ended June 30, 2024 amounted to $6,809,000 or $1.87 per diluted share compared to $9,205,000 or $2.47 per diluted share for the same nine-month period a year ago.

“We continue to be impacted by the compression of net interest margin, as indicated by the increase in interest expense, however we are pleased with commercial and consumer loan growth,” stated Brendan J. McGill, President, and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. McGill continued “Asset quality and capital levels remain strong as we continue to navigate the economic environment with discipline, ensuring we remain a competitive and an attractive option to our existing and prospective customers.”

The Company’s assets totaled $863.9 million compared to $829.9 million a year ago. Stockholders’ tangible book value increased 1.7% to $23.65 per share from $23.26 a year ago.
