Ohio Valley Banc Corp. is a financial institution primarily engaged in providing banking services through its subsidiaries, operating within the commercial banking industry, and noted for its community-focused approach.
In its latest earnings report, Ohio Valley Banc Corp. announced a 20.8% increase in net income for the third quarter of 2024 compared to the same period last year, signaling strong financial performance despite challenges posed by an unfavorable interest rate environment.
Key highlights from the report include a significant increase in net interest income driven by loan growth in both commercial and residential real estate segments, although offset by a decrease in net interest margin due to rising funding costs. The company also reported an increase in noninterest income, attributed to service charges and trust fees, and a rise in noninterest expenses, primarily due to higher salaries, employee benefits, and professional fees.
Looking ahead, Ohio Valley Banc Corp. remains optimistic about its financial outlook, focusing on loan growth and innovative deposit products like the Sweet Home Ohio account to sustain its momentum and community-first mission in the competitive banking sector.
