Previous wording

Based on sensitivity analysis of all portfolios, a 0.0050% change (slight improvement or decline on bank's scale) in all 11 qualitative risk factors (where assigned) would have a $2.4 million impact on the reserve allocation. Changing each factor by 0.01% (moderate improvement or decline) would have a $4.7 million impact. Management recognizes that these are extreme scenarios and it is very unlikely that all risk factors would change by 0.005% or 0.01% simultaneously. For the June 30, 2026 estimate, management did not adjust any qualitative factors utilized in the previous quarter.

Management recognizes that these are extreme scenarios and it is very unlikely that all risk factors would change by 0.005% or 0.01% simultaneously. For the September 30, 2026 estimate, management assigned a slight decline (0.005%) to the interest rate risk factor in each pool which increased the reserve by $0.2 million.

Previous wording

Management systematically monitors the loan portfolio and the appropriateness of the allowance for credit losses on a quarterly basis to provide for expected losses inherent in the portfolio. Management assesses the risk in each loan type based on historical trends, the general economic environment of its local markets, individual loan performance and other relevant factors. The Company's estimate of future economic conditions utilized in its provision estimate is primarily dependent on expected unemployment ranges over a two-year period. Beyond two years, a straight line reversion to historical average loss rates is applied over the life of the loan pool in the migration methodology. The vintage methodology applies future average loss rates based on net losses in historical periods where the unemployment rate was within the forecasted range. As a result of the Company’s quarterly analysis of the adequacy of the Allowance for Credit Losses, the Company recorded a provision of credit losses of $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2026 compared to a $1.9 million recovery of credit losses recorded in the second quarter of 2025.

The provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 2026 was primarily related to the downgrade of a commercial real estate loan and a marginal increase in the historical loss rate for commercial and industrial loans during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, which were partially offset by net recoveries of $0.2 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2026.
