Peoples Ltd. Announces Third Quarter Results

Anthony J. Gabello, President and Chief Executive Officer of Peoples Ltd.

“Our bank has continued to perform well through the first nine months of the year, headlined by strong earnings growth and solid balance sheet growth. Loan growth, asset repricings, a strategic investment strategy, deposit growth, and continued controlled expense levels have more than offset increases in personnel and other operating expenses. Our Scranton office, opened in March 2025, continues to have a positive impact on our performance since its opening. We are also looking forward to opening a new location in Lackawanna County located at 100 Union Street, Taylor, PA. We are excited to bring our bank to Taylor and its surrounding communities, which will further enhance our Lackawanna County presence and continue the growth of our proud PS Bank brand. We anticipate opening this office in early 2027. We are proud to announce that we were ranked as the #30 highest bank on American Banker's list of the Top 100 Community Banks under $2 billion in the United States, an increase of six spots from our prior year's ranking. We continue to be the highest ranked community bank on this list throughout the communities we serve. We are proud of the efforts of our entire team of PS Bankers in helping us to achieve this distinguished honor. Finally, I'm pleased to announce that Peoples Ltd. recently began trading on OTCQX. Joining the OTCQX Market is an exciting new step as we continue to grow and connect with investors. This move supports our focus on creating lasting value for our shareholders while staying true to the community banking values and financial stability that have guided us for generations”
