What changed
ACNB reported Q2 EPS of $1.49, beating consensus of $1.32 by $0.17 or 12.9%. Revenue quality is strong, with net interest margin expanding to 4.56% from 4.21% a year ago and loans growing 8.6% annualized. The market may miss that the prior-year quarter included $1.5M in after-tax merger costs, making the 34% YoY EPS growth partly non-recurring, but core operating trends remain robust.
