RHINEBECK BANCORP, INC. COMPLETES FURTHER BALANCE SHEET RESTRUCTURING

Poughkeepsie, NY, December 26, 2024 – Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: RBKB) (the "Company"), the parent company of Rhinebeck Bank (the "Bank"), announced the sale of a portion of its available-for-sale investment securities portfolio as part of a strategic balance sheet repositioning.

In September 2024, the Company announced the sale of $71 million of available-for-sale securities.  In December 2024, the Bank sold an additional $21 million of available-for-sale securities. The proceeds from these sales were reinvested into new securities offering yields that were 3.06% higher than those of the securities sold. This restructuring had no impact on tangible equity and allows the Bank to improve its earnings stream. The transaction is projected to increase earnings per share by $0.04 and net interest margin by 0.04% over the next 12 months.

“This strategic restructuring is a positive move that will improve the profitability of the Company going forward and provide a long-term benefit to the Company, our shareholders and the Bank’s customers,” said Rhinebeck Bank President and CEO Michael J. Quinn. “Selling longer-term, low-yielding securities and reinvesting into shorter term more liquid securities will also allow the Company more balance sheet flexibility, including providing liquidity for commercial loan growth and reducing reliance on wholesale funding.”

The restructuring decreased the average life of the securities portfolio and is expected to improve the Company’s earnings stream beginning in the first quarter of 2025.  The securities sold had a yield of 1.37% and a weighted average life of approximately 6.2 years. The proceeds were reinvested into securities yielding 4.44% with an approximate weighted average life of 1.8 years.  The Company recognized a one-time pre-tax loss of $4.1 million as a result of the transaction.

Following this restructuring, the Bank remained “well capitalized.”  Additionally, the Bank maintains robust liquidity metrics, including holding over $35 million in cash, cash equivalents, and Treasury securities.  Additionally, the Bank has an unused secured line of credit of over $250 million with the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York.
