Form 5500 information is as filed by the plan administrator with the Department of Labor and may be amended. Figures reflect the plan year shown, not current balances. Form 5500 contains no individual account balances. Look up the original filing at EFAST2.
The Adirondack Trust Company Employees' Pension Plan is a defined benefit pension plan sponsored by The Adirondack Trust Company of Saratoga Springs, New York. For the plan year ending 30 Sep 2025 it reported 195 participants, 39 of them active, and net assets of $49.6M.
Net assets came to $254,217 per participant, well above the $80,635 median for defined benefit plans with 100 to 249 participants and well above the $119,983 median for defined benefit plans in finance and insurance. The figure is an average across everyone in the plan, including former employees with small balances; Form 5500 holds no individual account data.
The filing reports no service provider compensation on Schedule C. That is common where fees are paid by the employer or taken from investment returns, neither of which appears there. Administrative expenses charged to the plan were $0.
Across the filings on record, net assets went from $15.5M in 2009 to $49.6M in 2024 (up 220%), and participants from 241 to 195 (down 19%).
The independent accountant's opinion on the financial statements was unmodified (unqualified).

Questions and answers
How big is The Adirondack Trust Company Employees' Pension Plan?
195 participants at the end of the plan year ending 30 Sep 2025, of whom 39 were active employees, with net assets of $49,572,379. Among defined benefit plans that places it in the 100 to 249 participants band, which held 1,156 plans in plan year 2024.
What does The Adirondack Trust Company contribute per participant?
This filing has no Schedule H financial statement, so employer contributions are not reported here.
What fees does the plan pay and how do they compare?
Schedule C reports no provider compensation for the year. Administrative expenses on Schedule H were $0. Investment costs deducted inside mutual funds and other pooled vehicles are not itemised on Form 5500, so these figures are a floor rather than a full cost.
Who runs the plan?
The sponsor is The Adirondack Trust Company. The financial statements were audited by Uhy LLP. Form 5500 also names the plan administrator's signer and other individuals; this site publishes organisations only.
Was the audit opinion unqualified?
The filing reports an unmodified (unqualified) opinion. Unmodified (formerly "unqualified") is the standard clean opinion.
How current is this, and does it show my balance?
This is the Form 5500 for the plan year 1 Oct 2024 to 30 Sep 2025, received by the Department of Labor on 7 Jul 2026. Filings are due seven months after the plan year ends, or nine and a half with an extension, so the public record always runs a year or more behind. It contains plan-level totals only: no individual balances, contributions or names of participants exist in the data.
