Financial Report as of December 31, 2019

During the current COVID-19 pandemic, Apple Bank remains deeply committed to the welfare of our employees, customers and all the communities we serve.

A critical part of this commitment is ensuring Apple Bank’s safety and soundness with prudent financial management. Throughout past financial crises, the Bank’s long history of conservative management and careful attention to credit quality have allowed it to remain solidly profitable, resulting in our 28th year of uninterrupted profitability in 2019. Apple Bank’s balance sheet is comprised primarily of high-quality loans and securities, and its capital ratios remain strong. The Bank went into the COVID-19 crisis in a very strong financial condition with almost no non-performing loans and almost half of its assets in government-guaranteed loans and securities. We are well-capitalized and have strong funding and liquidity.

Our conservative fiscal management and strong financial performance provide a solid foundation as we look ahead to post-pandemic recovery. Certainly, all sectors of the economy will be faced with challenges in the future. During this unprecedented time, the Bank’s priority is the safety of employees and customers, while ensuring continuity of services to our customers and the communities we serve. Operations are up and fully engaged across all areas of the Bank, including our branches and call center. We have successfully shifted the majority of our administrative employees to work remotely. However, we may have to periodically close certain branch locations in accordance with Centers for Disease Control (CDC) guidance and to observe safety requirements to protect our customers and employees. Please regularly check applebank.com/hours for the latest updates on branch openings, closings and operating hours.
