Manz, Chief Financial Officer419.659.2141 United Bancshares, Inc.Quarterly ReportMarch 31, 2026 Shareholders, Clients, and Team Members: I am pleased to report that your Company had a strong start to 2026 with reported net income of $3.7 million ($1.32/share), 17.73% return on average tangible equity and 1.23% return on average assets. During the first quarter the Company also reported $28.1 million in loan growth (13.6% annualized) and $30.6 million in deposit growth (11.6% annualized). Net interest margin also improved to 4.01% from 3.59% in the first quarter of 2025. While credit quality remained stable, the company did allocate $289,000 to provision for credit losses primarily as the result of the noted loan growth. The Company's first quarter profitability was also enhanced by an increase in the value of our mortgage servicing rights and gain on sale of other real estate owned of $307,000 and $121,000, respectively, as the result of an increase in interest rates at quarter end and disposal of our Gahanna location. Additionally, we repurchased approximately 7% of our outstanding shares in the first quarter as part of the company's ongoing capital management strategies. The repurchase and continued growth in our profitability made a substantial positive impact on our return on equity and earnings per share for each of our current shareholders. We are seeing positive movement in many of our financial metrics and continue to believe that repurchasing shares at the appropriate levels brings long-term value to our shareholders. If your investment strategy has changed or you would simply like to use your capital for another purpose, please reach out to our incoming Board Secretary, Jane Wood or me so that we can thank you for your past investment and efficiently determine if the purchase of those shares makes sense for both you and the company. Throughout the first quarter UBOH shares closed on OTCQX at an average price of $40.30 per share and closed the first quarter at $38.00 per share. As a result of these successes, the Board of Directors declared a $0.25 per share quarterly dividend, a 4.2% increase from last quarter, payable on June 15th for shareholders of record on May 29th. The dividend is approximately 19% of the reported net income for the first quarter of 2026. Throughout 2026, we plan to continue to grow the number and size of client relationships, introduce an all-new digital platform for our clients, expand our areas of service, continue to provide clients weekday access to a live teller and online chat from 7am – 7pm, and apply new technologies to create internal efficiencies. Over the past 20 plus years, our Company has benefited greatly from the dedication and leadership of many exceptional team members and directors. I would be remiss not to individually recognize our retiring Chairman, Daniel W. Schutt, and Board Secretary, Denise Giesige. Their commitment, guidance, and tireless efforts have played a significant role in shaping the success and strength of our organization. While we are excited for them as they begin this next chapter, we extend our deepest gratitude for all they have contributed over the years. Dan and Denise have left a lasting legacy—one defined by service, kindness, integrity, and dedication to our shareholders, clients, team members, and the communities we serve. Personally, their friendships will always be a cherished gift of which I could never have earned. We wish them both God's blessing in retirement and we remain committed to carrying forward the solid foundation and values they helped build at this organization. Finally, thank you for your investment in United Bancshares, Inc. and ongoing support and the trust you have placed in us. We are committed to adding financial value to your investment while improving the lives of those we serve. Respectfully, Brian D.
