LINKBANCORP

What LINKBANCORP does

LINKBANCORP, Inc. was a Pennsylvania-based regional bank holding company headquartered in Camp Hill, PA that provided traditional commercial and retail banking services to individuals and businesses across the mid-Atlantic United States. The company operated through its wholly-owned subsidiary LINKBANK, running a network of 24 branches spanning Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, and Virginia, and offered standard banking products including deposit accounts, lending facilities, and general financial solutions. At the time of its acquisition, LINKBANCORP held approximately $3.1 billion in total assets and reported full-year 2025 net income of $33.5 million, up 26.8% from $26.2 million in 2024, alongside 10.9% deposit growth and 13.1% loan growth for the same year.

The business operated a horizontally-segmented, branch-based distribution model serving personal and small-to-mid business banking customers with no disclosed digital-first or specialized product differentiation versus peer regional banks. Revenue was generated through traditional net interest income and ancillary fee income from a community-banking client base.

LINKBANCORP ceased to exist as an independent entity on May 1, 2026, when it completed an all-stock merger into Burke & Herbert Financial Services Corp. (NASDAQ: BHRB), with LINKBANK simultaneously merging into Burke & Herbert Bank & Trust Company. The transaction was valued at approximately $354.2 million, with LINKBANCORP shareholders receiving 0.1350 shares of BHRB per LINKBANCORP share, creating a combined banking franchise of nearly 100 branches across Delaware, Kentucky, Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and West Virginia.
