EXHIBIT 99.1 Stock Yards Bancorp Reports Record Second Quarter Earnings of $40.1 Million or $1.31 Per Diluted Share Second Quarter Highlighted by the Completed Acquisition of Field & Main Bancorp Along with Margin Expansion and Record Non-Interest Income LOUISVILLE, Ky., July 29, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Stock Yards Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: SYBT), parent company of Stock Yards Bank & Trust Company, with offices throughout the state of Kentucky, as well as the Indianapolis, Indiana and Cincinnati, Ohio metropolitan markets, today reported record earnings of $40.1 million, or $1.31 per diluted share, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026. This compares to net income of $36.6 million, or $1.24 per diluted share, for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026, and $34.0 million, or $1.15 per diluted share, for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. Net interest margin expansion, strong credit quality metrics and record levels of non-interest income, driven in large part by wealth management & trust (WM&T) income, card income, deposit service charges and treasury management fees, all contributed to record second quarter 2026 operating results. (dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data) 2Q26 1Q26 2Q25 Net income $ 40,057 $ 36,595 $ 34,024 Net income per share, diluted 1.31 1.24 1.15 Net interest income $ 87,828 $ 78,421 $ 73,473 Provision for credit losses(1) - 1,625 2,175 Non-interest income 26,747 24,594 24,348 Non-interest expenses 63,806 55,242 52,700 Net interest margin 3.84% 3.65% 3.53% Efficiency ratio(2) 55.64% 53.58% 53.83% Tangible common equity to tangible assets(3) 9.66% 9.69% 8.86% Annualized return on average assets(4) 1.63% 1.58% 1.52% Annualized return on average equity(4) 13.50% 13.63% 13.91% “Our second quarter results marked a new earnings record for Stock Yards, driven by strength across both net interest income and non-interest income,” commented James A. (Ja) Hillebrand, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Net interest income came in stronger than anticipated, supported by net interest margin expansion. Organic loan growth was modest, primarily reflecting a significant volume of payoffs as opposed to softening demand, including several property sales and loans transitioning to the permanent market. This activity reflects a backlog that had built up given the interest rate environment that we have discussed in prior quarters. Importantly, our loan production remained on target and our loan pipeline remains steady heading into the second half of the year. Our non-interest income categories were equally strong performers in the second quarter, with WM&T revenue and treasury management fees reaching new highs in addition to card income and deposit service charges each posting solid gains, reinforcing non-interest income as a critical part of our overall results. “A highlight of the quarter was the May 1st completion of the Field & Main Bancorp acquisition (“Field & Main”), which added over $800 million in both bank assets and WM&T AUM,” Hillebrand continued. “The acquisition is already positively impacting our operating results by increasing our scale and reach in Western Kentucky—one of the most attractive and economically vibrant regions in the state. This merger provided us with an immediately scalable presence in this region, and Field & Main’s community-first, relationship-driven culture aligns closely with Stock Yards’ longstanding focus on disciplined growth, profitability, and high-touch customer service. We are now well positioned to strengthen our presence in this new market, enhance operating leverage, and deliver expanded capabilities to customers across Western Kentucky and adjacent markets.”

As of June 30, 2026, Stock Yards had $10.37 billion in assets, $7.88 billion in loans and $8.49 billion in total deposits. The Company’s combined enterprise, which encompasses 81 branch offices across three contiguous states, will continue to benefit from a diversified geographic and economic footprint, including the six locations added through the Field & Main acquisition and continued organic expansion. Key factors contributing to the second quarter of 2026 included: Total loans increased $1.03 billion, or 15%, over the last 12 months, while growing $657 million, or 9%, on the linked quarter. As of June 30, 2026, the Field & Main loan portfolio totaled approximately $633 million. Excluding the Field & Main portfolio, organic growth totaled $400 million, or 6%, over the past 12 months, with the CRE and C&I segments being the primary drivers of the increase. The yield earned on total loans ended at 6.16% for the second quarter of 2026, up 3 basis points compared to the second quarter of the prior year despite interest rate reductions implemented by the FRB in the latter part of 2025. Deposit balances increased to $979 million, or 13%, over the last 12 months. As of period end, the Field & Main deposit portfolio totaled $765 million, including $136 million of non-interest bearing deposits. Excluding the Field & Main deposit portfolio, total deposits grew $214 million, or 3%, concentrated primarily within the interest-bearing deposit portfolio. On the linked quarter, total deposits increased $729 million, or 9%. Excluding the impact of the Field & Main portfolio, total deposits contracted $36 million on the linked quarter, driven by declines in the more expensive time deposit and money market portfolios. Net interest income increased $14.4 million, or 20%, for the second quarter of 2026 compared to the second quarter a year ago. Net interest margin expanded 31 basis points to 3.84% for the second quarter of 2026 compared to the second quarter of the prior year, driven by substantial average loan balance growth, lower deposit costs, a more efficient balance sheet and the impact of the Field & Main merger. On the linked quarter, net interest income increased $9.4 million, or 12%, and net interest margin expanded by 19 basis points, driven primarily by improved loan yields, lower interest-bearing deposit costs and a more efficient balance sheet. Higher loan yields were attributed to the continued favorable repricing of the legacy portfolio in addition to adding the higher-yielding Field & Main portfolio, while deposit costs declined as a result of strategically lowering deposit rates in tandem with the FRB’s rate reductions over the last 12 months. Margin expansion accelerated during the quarter in part due to a better funding mix. Looking ahead, margin appears to be near a peak, as favorable fixed rate loan repricing may be offset by higher funding costs going forward. No provision for credit losses on loans(1) was recorded for the second quarter of 2026, compared to $2.2 million for the prior year quarter, due to muted organic loan growth for the quarter, strong credit quality metrics and an improved unemployment forecast during the quarter. Non-interest income increased $2.4 million, or 10%, over the second quarter of 2025, and increased $2.2 million, or 9%, on the linked quarter as a result of organic growth and acquisition-related activity. Total non-interest expenses increased $11.1 million, or 21%, for the second quarter of 2026 compared to the second quarter of 2025, and increased $8.6 million, or 16%, on the linked quarter. Activity related to the Field & Main merger totaled $5.8 million during the second quarter of 2026, $3.5 million of which relates to regular operating expenses and $2.3 million relates to one-time merger-related expenses. Remaining merger- related expenses, primarily related to systems conversion, are expected to be incurred in the third and fourth quarters of 2026. Tangible common equity per share(3) was $31.39 on June 30, 2026, compared to $30.41 on March 31, 2026, and $27.01 on June 30, 2025. Hillebrand concluded, “In May 2026, we were honored to once again be named a recipient of the 2025 Raymond James Community Bankers Cup, which recognizes the top 10% of community banks nationwide based on measures such as profitability, operational efficiency, and balance sheet strength. This award drew from a pool of all U.S.-based, exchange-traded banks with assets between $500 million and $10 billion as of December 31, 2025. This milestone reflects both the strength of our Company’s performance and our ongoing dedication to providing outstanding service to the communities we are honored to support.” Stock Yards Bancorp has been awarded the Raymond James Community Bankers Cup a total of 11 times, including each of the past four consecutive years. Results of Operations – Second Quarter 2026, Compared with Second Quarter 2025 Net interest income, the Company’s largest source of revenue, increased by $14.4 million, or 20%, to $87.8 million. Significant average earning asset balance growth led to strong net interest income expansion. Net interest income attributed to the Field & Main merger totaled $5.5 million, representing two months of activity. Total interest income increased by $13.3 million, or 12%, to $128 million, including $8.4 million of interest income attributed to the Field & Main acquisition.

Interest income and fees on loans increased $15.0 million, or 15%, over the prior year quarter, while average loan balances increased $938 million, or 14%. The average yield earned on loans increased 3 basis points over the past 12 months to 6.16%. The increases over the prior year period were driven by strong organic average balance growth, favorable repricing of the legacy portfolio and the addition of the higher-yielding Field & Main loan portfolio. Interest income on securities decreased $3.4 million, or 39%, compared to the second quarter of 2025. Average securities balances declined $378 million, or 28%, while the rate earned on securities declined 39 basis points to 2.18%. The decline in average balances and related yields was attributed to the scheduled maturities of treasury bills that had previously been used for collateral pledging purposes and carried a rate similar to the Federal Funds Target Rate. Given that the acquired securities portfolio was sold immediately upon acquisition close, there was minimal impact on the investment portfolio. Average overnight funds increased $248 million, or 99% for the second quarter of 2026 compared to the same period of the prior year, driven largely by substantial average deposit growth and the previously mentioned maturity activity from the securities portfolio in addition to the impact of the Field & Main acquisition. Corresponding interest income increased $1.9 million, or 71%, consistent with significant average balance growth. The related yield declined 62 basis points to 3.76% compared to the prior year quarter due to the Federal Reserve’s rate reductions over the past year. Total interest expense decreased $1.0 million, or 3%, to $40.5 million despite recording interest expense totaling $2.9 million in relation to the Field & Main merger. While average interest-bearing deposit balances increased $679 million, or 12%, as a result of both organic growth and acquisition-related activity, the corresponding expense declined $740,000, or 2%, compared to the second quarter of 2025 and the rate paid on interest-bearing deposits dropped 32 basis points to 2.27%, which was driven by strategically lowering deposit rate offerings in tandem with the Federal Reserve’s rate reductions over the past 12 months. The Company recorded no provision for credit losses on loans(1) for the second quarter of 2026, compared to $2.2 million in provision for credit losses on loans for the second quarter of 2025. The lower expense compared to the second quarter of 2025 reflected strong credit metrics, CECL model updates and muted loan growth. No expense for off balance sheet exposures was recorded for the second quarter of 2026 compared to a credit for off balance sheet exposures of $75,000 recorded in the second quarter of 2025, as line of credit utilization improved and related availability declined. Non-interest income increased $2.4 million, or 10%, to $26.7 million compared to the second quarter of 2025. Non-interest income attributed to the Field & Main transaction totaled $1.3 million for the second quarter of 2026, representing two months of activity. WM&T income ended the second quarter of 2026 at a record $12.6 million, an increase of $2.1 million, or 20%, over the second quarter of 2025. WM&T revenue attributed to the Field & Main transaction totaled $789,000 for the second quarter of 2026. Excluding the impact of the Field & Main merger, legacy WM&T revenue still reached a new record, ending at $11.8 million for the second quarter of 2026, aided by market appreciation and customer base expansion. Treasury management fees increased $170,000, or 6%, to a record $3.2 million. New product sales and broad fee increases that were implemented in the prior year contributed to the increase. Activity related to Field & Main was minimal, totaling $22,000. Card income increased $307,000, or 6%, over the second quarter of 2025, with activity attributed to the Field & Main transaction totaling $252,000. Brokerage income grew $94,000, or 10%, compared to the second quarter of the prior year. Other non-interest income, which primarily includes swap fees, letter of credit fees and OREO activity, decreased $520,000 compared to the second quarter of 2025, as the prior year period benefitted from significant swap fee activity. Non-interest expenses increased by $11.1 million, or 21%, to $63.8 million, compared to the second quarter of 2025. Non-interest expenses related to the Field & Main merger totaled $5.8 million for the second quarter of 2026, $3.5 million of which represents two months of regular operating expenses and $2.3 million represents one-time merger-related charges. Compensation expense increased $3.7 million, or 13%, compared to the second quarter of 2025, driven primarily by growth in full-time equivalent employees (FTEs), including the impact of the Field & Main acquisition and a focus on sales team expansion, higher bonus accrual levels and annual merit-based salary increases. Approximately 100 employees joined the Company as part of the Field & Main merger.

Technology and communication expense increased $1.6 million, or 35%, compared to the second quarter of 2025, attributed to several planned investments, including the development of advanced data analytics capabilities in addition to the impact of the Field & Main acquisition. Net occupancy and equipment expenses increased $720,000, or 18%, over the second quarter of 2025, consistent with the impact of the Field & Main acquisition, which added six full-service locations, and organic branch network expansion over the last 12 months in addition to higher rent and depreciation expense. Marketing and business development expense increased $286,000, or 15%, compared to the second quarter of 2025, attributed to higher customer entertainment spending in addition to the impact of the Field & Main acquisition. Intangible asset amortization expense increased $631,000, or 69%, which was entirely the result of the core deposit and customer list intangible assets recorded as a result of the Field & Main acquisition. Other non-interest expenses increased $346,000, or 14%, compared to the second quarter of 2025, driven mainly by costs associated with growth in the ICS deposit product and the impact of the Field & Main acquisition in addition to other miscellaneous expenses. The Company recorded income tax expense of $10.7 million for the second quarter of 2026, with an effective tax rate of 21.1%. This compared to income tax expense of $8.9 million in the second quarter of 2025, with an effective tax rate of 20.8%. Financial Condition – June 30, 2026, Compared with June 30, 2025 Total assets increased $1.16 billion, or 13%, year over year to $10.37 billion. Total loans increased $1.03 billion, or 15%, to $7.88 billion, with growth well-spread across segments and markets. As of June 30, 2026, the Field & Main loan portfolio totaled approximately $633 million. Excluding the Field & Main portfolio, organic growth totaled $400 million, or 6%, with the CRE and C&I segments being the primary drivers of the increase. Total line of credit usage ended at 50% as of June 30, 2026, compared to 48% as of June 30, 2025. C&I line of credit usage remained unchanged at 37% as of period end, compared to June 30, 2025. Total investment securities decreased $370 million, or 30%, year over year, driven by the maturity of short-term Treasury Bills that had previously been utilized for seasonal collateral pledging purposes that were not reinvested, providing liquidity and funding for continued loan growth consistent with current balance sheet management strategies. At acquisition date, Field & Main added approximately $56 million of investment securities (stated at market value), which consisted predominantly of tax-free municipals. The Company immediately sold the majority of the acquired portfolio, and less than $1 million of the acquired investment securities portfolio remained on the balance sheet as of quarter-end.

The ratio of allowance for credit losses to loans ended at 1.38% on June 30, 2026, compared to 1.32% on June 30, 2025, the increase over the prior year being attributed to the allowance recorded in relation to the loan portfolio acquired from Field & Main.

Total equity to assets(3) was 12.02% and the tangible common equity ratio(3) was 9.66% on June 30, 2026, compared to 10.92% and 8.86% on June 30, 2025, respectively.

Similarly, return on average equity equals net income divided by total average equity, annualized to reflect a full year return on average equity. (5) - Interest income on a FTE basis includes the additional amount of interest income that would have been earned if investments in certain tax-exempt interest earning assets had been made in assets subject to federal, state and local taxes yielding the same after-tax income. Interest income, yields and ratios on a FTE basis are considered non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes net interest income on a FTE basis provides an insightful picture of the interest margin for comparison purposes. The FTE basis also allows management to assess the comparability of revenue arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources. The FTE basis assumes a federal corporate income tax rate of 21%.
