Arrow Financial reports Q3 EPS 77c vs. 53c last year

Arrow President and CEO David S. DeMarco: “I am proud to report that on the heels of our unification effort, the Arrow team delivered a great financial quarter. EPS increased by almost 20% from the prior quarter and ROA improved by 16 bps to 1.16%, despite recognizing the last remaining unification expenses. Our third quarter delivered record net interest income, solid net interest margin expansion and more than 10% annualized growth in tangible book value. With the Federal Reserve enacting a first round of interest rate cuts late in the third quarter and again in late October, Arrow is well-positioned with our near-term liability sensitive balance sheet to deliver another great quarter to end the year. We are delighted that we can use our improved financial performance to continue to support our communities while delivering strong results to our shareholders.”
