NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 ― BASIS OF PRESENTATION, SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First Keystone Corporation (the “Corporation”) and its wholly owned subsidiary First Keystone Community Bank (the “Bank”) (collectively the “Company”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2026, are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2026. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in First Keystone Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the consolidated balance sheet date of March 31,2026 for items that should potentially be recognized or disclosed in these consolidated financial statements. The evaluation was conducted through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued.
NOTE 2 ― RECENT ACCOUNTING STANDARDS UPDATES (“ASU”)
Adopted ASUs:
In 2025, the Company adopted ASU 2023-09,Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. ASU 2023-09 required enhanced income tax disclosures related to the rate reconciliation and information related to income taxes paid. This ASU was issued to enhance transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. The standard required: (1) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation, and (2) income taxes paid, net of refunds received, disaggregated by jurisdiction based on an established
threshold. The Company adopted the provisions of the ASU prospectively, being applied only to transactions for the
fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and beyond. This ASU did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s
consolidated financial statements.
Pending ASUs:
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU No. 2024-03,Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. ASU 2024-03 requires disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses in the notes to the financial statements. The amendments in this update are effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. The requirements will be applied prospectively with the option for retrospective application. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the new guidance will have on the Company’s financial statements.
In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-09,Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting
Improvements. This ASU amends certain aspects of the hedge accounting guidance to better reflect an entity’s risk
management activities. The amendments in this update are effective for public business entities for annual and interim
reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that the new
guidance will have on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11,Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope
Improvements. This ASU clarifies the current interim disclosure requirements under US GAAP and incorporates a
disclosure principle that requires disclosures at interim periods when an event or change that has a material effect on an
entity has occurred since the previous year-end. The amendments are effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted.
NOTE 3 — SECURITIES
Debt Securities
The Company classifies its securities as either “Held-to-Maturity” or “Available-for-Sale” at the time of purchase. Securities are accounted for on a trade date basis. Debt securities are classified as Held-to-Maturity when the Company has the ability and positive intent to hold the securities to maturity. Securities classified as Held-to-Maturity are carried at cost adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount to maturity. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, all debt securities held were classified as available-for-sale.
Debt securities not classified as Held-to-Maturity are included in the Available-for-Sale category and are carried at fair value. The amount of any unrealized gain or loss, net of the effect of deferred income taxes, is reported as accumulated other comprehensive loss in the consolidated balance sheets and consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity. Management’s decision to sell Available-for-Sale securities is based on changes in economic conditions, controlling the sources and applications of funds, terms, availability of and yield of alternative investments, interest rate risk and the need for liquidity.
The cost of debt securities classified as Held-to-Maturity or Available-for-Sale is adjusted for amortization of premiums to the earliest call date and accretion of discounts to expected maturity. Such amortization and accretion, as well as interest and dividends, are included in interest and dividend income from securities. Realized gains and losses are included in net securities gains and losses. The cost of securities sold, redeemed or matured is based on the specific identification method.
The Company invests in various forms of agency debt including residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities and callable debt. The mortgage-backed agency securities are issued by Federal Home Loan Mortgage
Corporation (“FHLMC”), Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”), Government National Mortgage
Association (“GNMA”) or Small Business Administration (“SBA”). The other mortgage-backed securities consist of private (non-agency) residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities. The municipal securities consist of general obligations and revenue bonds. Asset-backed securities consist of private (non-agency) student loan pools backed by the Federal Family Education Loan Program (“FFELP”) which carry a 97% federal government guarantee. Corporate debt securities consist of senior debt and subordinated debt holdings.
There wasno allowance for credit losses for Available-For-Sale debt securities recorded as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025; therefore, it is not present in the table below. The amortized cost, related estimated fair value, and unrealized gains and losses for debt securities classified as Available-For-Sale, along with the cumulative basis adjustments for fair value hedges, were as follows at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025:

There were 144 individual debt securities in an unrealized loss position as of March 31, 2026, with a combined decline in value representing 5.28% of the debt securities portfolio. There were 144 individual debt securities in an unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2025, with their combined decline in value representing 4.98% of the debt securities portfolio.
Available-for-sale debt securities are required to be individually evaluated for impairment in accordance with ASC 326,Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. Management evaluates debt securities for impairment where there has been a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis of a debt security to determine whether there is a credit loss associated with the decline in fair value on at least a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. Consideration is given to (1) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (2) the outlook for receiving the contractual cash flows of the investments, (3) the extent to which the fair value has been less than cost, (4) the Company’s intent and ability to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value or whether it is more-likely-than-not that the Company will be required to sell the debt security prior to recovering its fair value, (5) credit ratings, (6) third party guarantees, and (7) collateral values. In analyzing an issuer’s financial condition, management considers whether the debt securities are
issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, the results of reviews of the issuer’s financial condition, and the issuer’s anticipated ability to pay the contractual cash flows of the debt securities. All issues of U.S. Treasury and Agency-Backed debt securities have the full faith and credit backing of the United States Government or one of its agencies. All other debt securities that do not have a zero expected credit loss are evaluated quarterly to determine whether there is a credit loss associated with a decline in fair value. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there wereno credit losses recorded in relation to available-for-sale debt securities.
Credit losses are calculated individually, rather than collectively, using a discounted cash flow method, whereby management compares the present value of expected cash flows with the amortized cost basis of the debt security. The credit loss component would be recognized as a credit loss expense (or reversal) through the provision for credit losses and the creation of an allowance for credit losses. Losses would be charged against the allowance if management believes the available-for-sale debt security to be uncollectible or when either criteria regarding the intent or requirement to sell are met (e.g. the Company intends to sell or determines it is more-likely-than-not that it will be required to sell the security prior to recovering the security’s fair value).
The Company made a policy election to exclude accrued interest receivable from the amortized cost basis of debt securities available for sale. Accrued interest receivable on debt securities available for sale is reported as a component of accrued interest receivable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet and totaled $2,086,000 as of March 31, 2026 as compared to $2,068,000 as of December 31, 2025. Accrued interest receivable on debt securities available for sale is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.
All debt securities available for sale in an unrealized loss position, as of March 31, 2026, continue to perform as scheduled and the Company does not believe that there is a credit loss or that a provision for credit losses is necessary. Also, as part of the Company’s evaluation of its intent and ability to hold debt securities for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in the market, the Company considers its investment strategies, cash flow needs, liquidity position, capital adequacy and interest rate risk position. The Company does not currently intend to sell the debt securities within the portfolio and it is not more-likely-than-not that the Company will be required to sell the debt securities.
Management continues to monitor all of the Company’s debt securities with a high degree of scrutiny. There can be no assurance that the Company will not conclude in future periods that conditions existing at that time indicate some or all of its debt securities may be sold or would require a charge to earnings as a provision for credit losses in such periods.
Equity Securities
In accordance with ASC 321-10, equity securities with readily determinable fair values are stated at fair value with realized and unrealized gains and losses reported on the consolidated statements of income. Equity securities without readily determinable fair values are recorded at cost, adjusted for observable price changes and impairments, if any.
At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had $1,984,000 and $1,810,000, respectively, in equity securities recorded at fair value. The following is a summary of realized gains and losses recognized in net income on equity securities during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:
| · · · · · · · | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|

| Less: Net gains recognized during the period on equity securities sold during the period | | — | | — | |
| Net gains (losses) recognized during the reporting period on equity securities still held at the reporting date | | $174 | | $(86) | |
Management evaluates equity securities for impairment at least on a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market conditions warrant such an evaluation. Equity securities without readily determinable fair values are measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized as earnings. Equity securities without readily determinable fair values are measured at cost less any determined impairment, plus or minus any observable price changes in orderly transactions for the same or similar securities in accordance with ASC 321, Equity Securities. Management evaluates equity securities without readily determinable fair values for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. In determining impairment under the ASC 321 model, management considers many factors, including (1) an offer to purchase the security at a fair value that is less than the cost/carrying value, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) any adverse changes in the issuer’s industry, operating environment, or macroeconomic conditions, and (4) whether the entity has the intent to sell the equity security or more likely than not will be required to sell the equity security before its anticipated recovery. The assessment of whether an impairment exists involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and is based on the information available to management at a point in time. If an impairment loss on an equity security is considered to exist, an impairment loss equal to the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value is recorded. Once the impairment is recorded, the new carrying value becomes the new cost basis of the equity security and cannot be adjusted upward if there is a subsequent recovery in the fair value of the security.
The Company monitors the equity securities portfolio monthly with particular attention given to securities in a continuous loss position of at least ten percent for over twelve months. Based on the factors described above, management did not consider any equity securities to be impaired at March 31, 2026 or December 31, 2025.
NOTE 4 — LOANS AND ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
Loans
The Company’s loan portfolio is segmented intotwo categories: Loans Held for Sale and Loans Held for Investment, as presented in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.
Loans held for sale consist of residential real estate loans originated for sale in the secondary market. Credit risk associated with such loans is mitigated by entering into sales commitments with third-party investors to purchase the loans upon origination. Residential mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market on an aggregate basis determined by independent pricing from appropriate federal or state agency investors. These loans are sold without recourse. The Company retains the right to service these loans after they are sold. Loans held for sale amounted to $452,000 and $1,140,000 at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Loans held for investment represent loans that the Company has the intent and ability to hold until maturity or payoff or for the foreseeable future. These loans are reported at their stated outstanding recorded investment, net of deferred fees and costs, unearned income and the allowance for credit losses. Interest on loans is recognized as income over the term of each loan, generally, by the accrual method. Loan origination fees and certain direct loan origination costs have been deferred with the net amount amortized using the straight line method or the interest method over the contractual life of the related loans as an interest yield adjustment.
The loans held for investment portfolio is segmented into the following segments: Real Estate (including both commercial and residential loans), Agricultural, Commercial and Industrial, Consumer, and State and Political Subdivisions.
Real Estate Lending
The Company engages in real estate lending to commercial borrowers in its primary market area and surrounding areas. The commercial component of the Company’s Real Estate portfolio is secured primarily by commercial retail space, commercial office buildings, residential housing and hotels. Generally, these loans have terms that do not exceed twenty years, have loan-to-value ratios of up toeighty percent of the value of the collateral property, and are typically supported by personal guarantees of the borrowers.
In underwriting these loans, the Company performs a thorough analysis of the financial condition of the borrower, the borrower’s credit history, and the reliability and predictability of the cash flow generated by the property securing the loan. The value of the property is determined by either independent appraisers or internal evaluations performed by Bank officers.
Real estate loans secured by commercial properties generally present a higher level of risk than loans secured by residential real estate. Repayment of loans secured by commercial real estate is typically dependent upon the successful operation of the related real estate project and/or the effect of the general economic conditions on income producing properties.
The residential component of the Company’s Real Estate portfolio is comprised of one-to-four family residential mortgage loan originations, home equity term loans and home equity lines of credit. These loans are generated by the Company’s marketing efforts, its present customers, walk-in customers and referrals. These loans are originated primarily with customers from the Company’s market area.
The Company’s one-to-four family residential mortgage originations are secured principally by properties located in its primary market area and surrounding areas. The Company offers fixed-rate mortgage loans with terms up to a maximum ofthirty years for both permanent structures and those under construction. Loans with terms ofthirty years are normally held for sale and sold without recourse; most of the residential mortgages held in the Company’s residential real estate portfolio have maximum terms oftwenty years. Generally, the majority of the Company’s residential mortgage loans originate with a loan-to-value ofeighty percent or less, or those with private mortgage insurance atninety-five percent or less. Home equity term loans are secured by the borrower’s primary residence and typically have a maximum loan-to-value ofeighty percent and a maximum term offifteen years. In general, home equity lines of credit are secured by the borrower’s primary residence with a maximum loan-to-value ofeighty percent and a maximum term oftwenty years.
In underwriting one-to-four family residential mortgage loans, the Company evaluates the borrower’s ability to make monthly payments, the borrower’s prior loan repayment history and the value of the property securing the loan. The ability and willingness to repay is assessed based upon the borrower’s employment history, current financial conditions and credit background. A majority of the properties securing residential real estate loans made by the Company are appraised by independent appraisers. The Company generally requires mortgage loan borrowers to obtain an attorney’s title opinion or title insurance and fire and property insurance, including flood insurance, if applicable.
Residential mortgage loans, home equity term loans and home equity lines of credit generally present a lower level of risk than consumer loans because they are secured by the borrower’s primary residence. Risk is increased when the Company is in a subordinate position, especially to another lender, for the loan collateral.
Agricultural Lending
The Company originates agricultural loans to individuals in the farming industry for funding the production of crops or to purchase or refinance capital assets such as farmland, livestock, machinery, equipment, and farm real estate improvements. Agricultural loans are typically secured by collateral related to the farming activities. These loans originate from customers within the Company’s primary market area or the surrounding areas.
In underwriting agricultural loans, an analysis is performed regarding the borrower’s ability to repay the loan, the borrower’s capital and collateral, and the past, present, and future cash flows of the borrower, as well as the agricultural industry as a whole. In general, these loans would be secured by cropland, pastureland, orchardland, or timberland that is committed to ongoing management and agricultural production, with a maximum loan-to-value ratio ofseventy percent and a maximum term often years.
Commercial and Industrial Lending
The Company originates commercial and industrial loans principally to businesses located in its primary market area and surrounding areas. These loans are used for various business purposes, which include short-term loans and lines
of credit to finance machinery and equipment, inventory and accounts receivable. Generally, the maximum term for loans extended on machinery and equipment is based on the projected useful life of such machinery and equipment. Most business lines of credit are written on demand and are reviewed annually.
Commercial and industrial loans are generally secured with short-term assets; however, in many cases, additional collateral such as real estate is provided as additional security for the loan. Loan-to-value maximum thresholds have been established by the Company and are specific to the type of collateral. Collateral values may be determined using invoices, inventory reports, accounts receivable aging reports, business financial statements, collateral appraisals or internal evaluations, etc. Commercial and industrial loans are typically supported by personal guarantees of the borrower.
In underwriting commercial and industrial loans, an analysis is performed to evaluate the borrower’s character and capacity to repay the loan, the adequacy of the borrower’s capital and collateral, as well as the conditions affecting the borrower. Evaluation of the borrower’s past, present and future cash flows is also an important aspect of the Company’s analysis of the borrower’s ability to repay.
Commercial and industrial loans generally present a higher level of risk than other types of loans due primarily to the effect of general economic conditions. Commercial and industrial loans are typically made on the basis of the borrower’s ability to make repayment from cash flows from the borrower’s primary business activities. As a result, the availability of funds for the repayment of commercial and industrial loans is dependent on the success of the business itself, which in turn, is likely to be dependent upon the general economic environment.
As an addition to the commercial loans held for investment portfolio, the Company may purchase the guaranteed portion of loans secured by the U.S. Government. The originating bank retains the unguaranteed portion of the loan. The loans are sponsored by one of the various government agencies including the SBA, United States Department of Agriculture (“USDA”), and the Farm Service Agency (“FSA”). Government Guaranteed Loans ("GGLs") carry no credit risk due to an unconditional and irrevocable guarantee (which is supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) on all principal and the balance of interest accruing through ninety days beyond the date that demand is made to the originating bank for repurchase of the loan. As of March 31, 2026, the Company's balance of GGLs was $3,766,000, compared to $3,902,000 at December 31, 2025.
Consumer Lending
The Company offers a variety of secured and unsecured consumer loans, including vehicle loans, stock secured loans and loans secured by financial institution deposits. These loans originate primarily with customers from the Company’s market area.
Consumer loan terms vary according to the type and value of collateral and creditworthiness of the borrower. In underwriting personal loans, a thorough analysis is performed regarding the borrower’s willingness and financial ability to repay the loan as agreed. The ability and willingness to repay is assessed based upon the borrower’s employment history, current financial condition and credit background.
Consumer loans may entail greater credit risk than residential real estate loans, particularly in the case of personal loans which are unsecured or are secured by rapidly depreciable assets, such as automobiles or recreational equipment. In such cases, repossessed collateral for a defaulted personal loan may not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance as a result of the greater likelihood of damage, loss or depreciation. In addition, personal loan collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability and therefore, are more likely to be affected by adverse personal circumstances. Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws, including bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount which can be recovered on such loans.
State and Political Subdivisions Lending
The Company, from time to time, may originate loans to state and political subdivisions that are within the Company’s primary market area or surrounding areas. These loans may be either taxable or tax-free. These loans may be
issued for the purpose of land improvement, infrastructure changes, bond refinances, or the purchase of equipment. State and political loans are typically secured by the taxing power of the borrowing entity. In some cases, the loans may also be secured by the property/item being purchased. Audited financial statements are required as part of the underwriting for all state and political loans and a full analysis of all components of the audited statements is performed. If the loan is to be classified as tax-free, a letter from the entity’s solicitor stating such is required, as well.
The risk associated with these types of loans is considerably less than commercial loan transactions. Repayment is based on the full faith, credit, and ability of the borrowing entity to tax and then collect the payments. Delinquency or loss on these types of loans is de minimis.
Delinquent Loans
Generally, a loan is considered to be past-due when scheduled loan payments are in arrears 10 days or more. Delinquent notices are generated automatically when a loan is 10 or 15 days past-due, depending on loan type. Collection efforts continue on past-due loans that have not been brought current, when it is believed that some chance exists for improvement in the status of the loan. Past-due loans are continually evaluated with the determination for charge-off being made when no reasonable chance remains that the status of the loan can be improved.
Commercial and industrial loans and real estate loans issued for commercial purpose are charged off in whole or in part when they become sufficiently delinquent based upon the terms of the underlying loan contract and when a collateral deficiency exists. Because all or part of the contractual cash flows are not expected to be collected, the loan is considered to require an individual evaluation based on the Company’s analysis of the cash flows or collateral estimated at fair value less cost to sell to determine if a specific allocation is required for the loan under the allowance for credit losses and/or if a charge-off is required. Should a GGL default, demand is made to the originating bank for repurchase of the loan. If the originating bank does not repurchase the loan, demand for repurchase is then made to the appropriate government agency which has provided the guarantee for the loan.
Real estate loans issued for residential purposes and consumer loans are charged off when they become sufficiently delinquent based upon the terms of the underlying loan contract and when the value of the underlying collateral is not sufficient to support the loan balance and a loss is expected. At that time, the amount of estimated collateral deficiency, if any, is charged off for loans secured by collateral, and all other loans are charged off in full. Loans with collateral are written down to the estimated fair value of the collateral less cost to sell.
Existing loans in which the borrower has declared bankruptcy are considered on a case by case basis to determine whether repayment is likely to occur (e.g. reaffirmation by the borrower with demonstrated repayment ability). Otherwise, loans are charged off in full or written down to the estimated fair value of collateral less cost to sell.
Generally, a loan is classified as non-accrual and the accrual of interest on such a loan is discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest. A loan may remain on accrual status if it is well secured (or supported by a strong guarantee) and in the process of collection. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, unpaid interest credited to income in the current year is reversed and unpaid interest accrued in prior years is charged against interest income. Certain non-accrual loans may continue to perform; that is, payments are still being received. Generally, the payments are applied to principal. These loans remain under constant scrutiny, and if performance continues, interest income may be recorded on a cash basis based on management's judgment regarding the collectability of principal.
Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans
The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) is an estimate of losses arising from borrowers’ inability to make loan payments as required, which is calculated via a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loan portfolio. All adjustments will be established through provisions for credit losses charged against income. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the ACL and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.
The ACL is maintained at a level estimated by management to be adequate to absorb potential loan losses. Management’s periodic evaluation of the adequacy of the ACL is based on specific expectations for the future economic environment that are incorporated in the projection, with loss expectations to revert to the long-run historical mean after such time as management can make or obtain a reasonable and supportable forecast. Management also considers the Company’s past loan loss experience, known and inherent risks in the portfolio, adverse situations that may impact the borrower’s ability to repay (including the timing of future payments), the estimated value of any underlying collateral (if the loan is collateral dependent), composition of the loan portfolio, and other relevant factors. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates based on management’s judgment regarding the projection of expected credit losses over the contractual lifetime of the loans.
The Company has contracted with a third-party vendor to assist in developing models for the ACL related to the Company’s loan portfolio under ASC 326Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. The Company has opted to utilize the Weighted Average Remaining Maturity (“WARM”) method to calculate the ACL which uses an average annual charge-off rate. This average annual charge-off rate contains loss content over several vintages and is used as a foundation for estimating the credit loss content for loans by segmented pools at the balance sheet date and is used to determine a historical charge-off rate. When estimating expected credit losses, the Company considers forward-looking information that is reasonable, supportable, and relevant to assessing the collectability of cash flows. Reasonable and supportable forecasts may extend over the entire contractual term of a loan or a period shorter than the contractual term. Reasonable and supportable forecasts may vary by portfolio segment or individual forecast input. These forecasts may include data from internal sources, external sources, or a combination of both.
When the contractual term of a loan extends beyond the reasonable and supportable period, ASC 326 requires reverting to historical loss information, or an appropriate proxy, for those periods beyond the reasonable and supportable forecast period (often referred to as the reversion period). The Company may revert to historical loss information for each individual forecast input or based on the entire estimate of loss. Reversion to historical loss information may be immediate, occur on a straight-line basis, or use any systematic/rational method. Management may apply different reversion techniques depending on the economic environment or applicable loan portfolio.
The methodology used to determine the ACL also includes a qualitative component in which the Company adjusts expected credit loss estimates for information not already captured in the loss estimation process. These qualitative factor adjustments may increase or decrease management’s estimate of expected credit losses. Changes in the level of the Company’s ACL may not always be directionally consistent with changes in the level of qualitative factor adjustments due to the incorporation of reasonable and supportable forecasts in estimating expected losses. Management considers qualitative factors that are relevant to the Company as of the reporting date, which may include but are not limited to: 1) changes in lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and collection, charge-off, and recovery practices not considered elsewhere; 2) changes in international, national, regional, and local economic and business conditions and developments that affect the collectability of the loan portfolio, including the condition of various market segments; 3) changes in the nature and volume of the loan portfolio; 4) changes in the experience, ability, and depth of management and other relevant staff; 5) changes in the volume and severity of past due loans, the volume of non-accrual loans, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded loans; 6) changes in the quality of the Company’s loan review system; 7) changes in the value of underlying collateral for collateral dependent loans; 8) the existence and effect of any concentrations of credit and changes in the level of such concentrations; and 9) the effect of other external factors such as competition and legal and regulatory requirements on the level of estimated credit losses in the Company’s existing loan portfolio.
The Company’s ACL is calculated by collectively evaluating and individually evaluating loans. The Company collectively evaluates applicable loans based on segments according to their homogeneous characteristics, aligned with the segmentation of the FDIC Bank Call Report. The Company collectively evaluates loans and determines applicable loss rates based on the following segments/classes:
Real Estate
| ◾ | Construction, land development, and other land loans |
| ◾ | Residential construction (loans to build homes, both speculative and owner-occupied, and 1-4 family lot loans) |
| ◾ | Agribusiness, farmland, or secured by farmland |
| ◾ | Revolving, open-end, 1-4 family residential properties (and extended under lines of credit) |
| ◾ | Loans secured by first liens |
| ◾ | Loans secured by junior liens |
| ◾ | Secured by multifamily (5 or more) residential properties |
| ◾ | Loans secured by owner occupied, non-farm, non-residential properties |
| ◾ | Loans secured by other non-farm, non-residential properties |
Agricultural
| ◾ | Loans to finance agricultural production and other loans for farmers |
Commercial and Industrial
| ◾ | Commercial and industrial loans |
Consumer
| ◾ | Other revolving credit plans |
| ◾ | Automobile loans |
| ◾ | Other consumer loans |
State and Political Subdivisions
| ◾ | Obligations (other than securities or leases) of states and political subdivisions in the U.S. |
In accordance with ASC 326-20-30-2, the Company will evaluate individual loans for expected credit losses when the loans do not share similar risk characteristics with loans evaluated using the collective method. Management may evaluate loans on an individual basis even when no specific expectation of collectability is in place. Loans for which individual evaluation has been deemed necessary are then analyzed to determine if a reserve is required for the loan. A loan would be individually evaluated under the following circumstances (a) if it is on non-accrual status, (b) if a distressed loan is determined to be collateral dependent, or (c) if the Company has other concerns regarding the viability of the loan. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Once identified as a loan requiring individual evaluation, the loan is analyzed based on the fair market value of the underlying collateral.
Loans that have been individually evaluated for expected credit losses may have a portion of the reserve allocated to cover the calculated collateral deficiency or the amount of the collateral deficiency may be charged off. Loans individually evaluated for expected credit losses may have zero specific allocation if the evaluation/analysis shows that no collateral deficiency exists for the loan and no loss is expected.
Enhanced disclosure requirements are required for certain loan refinancing and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty under ASC 326-20,Loan Modifications Experiencing Financial Difficulty. In accordance with ASC 326-20, the Company no longer evaluates loans with modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty individually for impairment, nor establishes a related specific reserve for such loans, but rather these loans are included in their respective portfolio segment and evaluated collectively for impairment to establish an allowance for credit losses. Any modifications of loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty that are classified as non-accrual or are otherwise designated as collateral dependent are individually evaluated for determination of expected credit losses.
The most common types of concessions granted upon modification of a loan to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties include: (a) a reduction in the interest rate for the remaining life of the debt, (b) an extension of the maturity date at an interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, (c) a temporary period of interest-only payments, and (d) a reduction in the contractual payment amount for either a short period or for the remaining term of the loan. A less common concession would be forgiveness of a portion of the loan’s principal. Loans so modified remain collectively evaluated for determination of expected credit losses, unless, during the process of evaluation, it is determined that the loan should be placed on non-accrual status until the Company determines that future collection of principal and interest is reasonably assured or the loan is otherwise deemed to be collateral dependent.
There may be certain types of loans for which the expectation of credit loss is zero after evaluating historical loss information, making necessary adjustments for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts, and considering any collateral or guarantee arrangements that are not free-standing contracts. Factors considered by management when evaluating whether expectations of zero credit loss are appropriate may include, but are not limited to: 1) a long history of zero credit loss; 2) full securitization by cash or cash equivalents; 3) high credit ratings from rating agencies with no expected future downgrade; 4) principal and interest payments that are guaranteed by the U.S. government; 5) the issuer, guarantor, or sponsor can print its own currency and the currency is held by other central banks as reserve currency; and 6) the interest rate on the security is recognized as a risk-free rate.
A loan that is fully secured by cash or cash equivalents, such as a certificate of deposit issued by the lending institution, would likely have zero credit loss expectations. Similarly, the guaranteed portion of an SBA loan purchased on the secondary market through the SBA’s fiscal and transfer agent would likely have zero credit loss expectations because these financial assets are unconditionally guaranteed by the U.S. government.
A reserve for unfunded lending commitments is provided for possible credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures. Off-balance sheet credit exposures primarily include undrawn portions of revolving lines of credit and standby letters of credit. The reserve for unfunded lending commitments represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in its unfunded loan commitments and, if necessary, is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the amount of the reserve for unfunded lending commitments was $144,000 and $90,000, respectively.
The Company made a policy election to exclude accrued interest receivable from the amortized cost basis of loans. Accrued interest receivable on loans is reported as a component of accrued interest receivable on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and totaled $2,614,000 as of March 31, 2026 compared to $2,736,000 at December 31, 2025. Accrued interest receivable on loans is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.
The Company is subject to periodic examination by its federal and state examiners, and may be required by such regulators to recognize additions to the ACL based on their assessment of credit information available to them at the time of their examinations.
The Company utilizes a risk grading matrix as a tool for managing credit risk in the loan portfolio and assigns an asset quality rating (risk grade) to all loans. An asset quality rating is assigned using the guidance provided in the Company’s loan policy. Primary responsibility for assigning the asset quality rating rests with the credit department. The asset quality rating is validated periodically by both an internal and external loan review process.
The commercial loan grading system focuses on a borrower’s financial strength and performance, experience and depth of management, primary and secondary sources of repayment, the nature of the business and the outlook for the particular industry. Primary emphasis is placed on financial condition and trends. The grade also reflects current economic and industry conditions; as well as other variables such as liquidity, cash flow, revenue/earnings trends, management strengths or weaknesses, quality of financial information, and credit history.
The loan grading system for residential real estate secured and consumer loans focuses on the borrower’s credit score and credit history, debt-to-income ratio and income sources, collateral position and loan-to-value ratio.
Risk grade characteristics are as follows:
Risk Grade 1 – MINIMAL RISK through Risk Grade 6 – MANAGEMENT ATTENTION (Pass Grade Categories)
Risk is evaluated via examination of several attributes including but not limited to financial trends, strengths and weaknesses, likelihood of repayment when considering both cash flow and collateral, sources of repayment, leverage position, management expertise, and repayment history.
At the low-risk end of the rating scale, a risk grade of 1 – Minimal Risk is the grade reserved for loans with exceptional credit fundamentals and virtually no risk of default or loss. Loan grades then progress through escalating ratings of 2 through 6 based upon risk. Risk Grade 2 – Modest Risk are loans with sufficient cash flows; Risk Grade 3 – Average Risk are loans with key balance sheet ratios slightly above the borrower’s peers; Risk Grade 4 – Acceptable Risk are loans with key balance sheet ratios usually near the borrower’s peers, but one or more ratios may be higher; and Risk Grade 5 – Marginally Acceptable are loans with strained cash flow, increasing leverage and/or weakening markets. Risk Grade 6 – Management Attention are loans with weaknesses resulting from declining performance trends and the borrower’s cash flows may be temporarily strained. Loans in this category are performing according to terms, but present some type of potential concern.
Risk Grade 7 − SPECIAL MENTION (Non-Pass Category)
Assets in this category are adequately collateralized but have potential weakness which may, if not checked or corrected, weaken the asset or inadequately protect the Company’s credit position at some future date. The loans may constitute increased credit risk, but not to the point of justifying a classification of substandard. No loss of principal or interest is envisioned, but risk is increasing beyond that at which the loan originally would have been granted. Historically, cash flows are inconsistent; financial trends show some deterioration. Liquidity and leverage are above industry averages. Financial information could be incomplete or inadequate. A Special Mention asset has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention.
Risk Grade 8 − SUBSTANDARD (Non-Pass Category)
Generally, these assets are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have “well-defined” weaknesses that jeopardize the full liquidation of the debt.
These loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the aggregate amount of substandard assets is not fully covered by the liquidation of the collateral used as security. Substandard loans have a high probability of payment default and require more intensive supervision by Company management.
Risk Grade 9 − DOUBTFUL (Non-Pass Category)
Generally, loans graded doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in a substandard loan with the added factor that the weaknesses are pronounced to a point whereby the basis of current information, conditions, and values, collection or liquidation in full is deemed to be highly improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific pending factors that may work to strengthen the asset, its classification is deferred until, for example, a proposed merger, acquisition, liquidation procedure, capital injection, perfection of liens on additional collateral and/or refinancing plan is completed. Loans are graded doubtful if they contain weaknesses so serious that collection or liquidation in full is questionable.

NOTE 6 — BORROWINGS
Short-Term Borrowings
Short-term borrowings include federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, the Federal Discount Window, and Federal Home Loan Bank of Pittsburgh (“FHLB”) advances, which generally represent overnight or less than 30-day borrowings.
Short-term borrowings and weighted–average interest rates at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are as follows:

Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase (“Repurchase Agreements”)
The Company enters into agreements under which it sells securities subject to an obligation to repurchase the same or similar securities. Under these arrangements, the Company may transfer legal control over the assets but still retain effective control through an agreement that both entitles and obligates the Company to repurchase the assets.
As a result, these repurchase agreements are accounted for as collateralized financing agreements (i.e., secured borrowings) and not as a sale and subsequent repurchase of securities. The obligation to repurchase the securities is reflected as a liability on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, while the securities underlying the repurchase agreements remain in the respective investment securities asset accounts. In other words, there is not offsetting or netting of the investment securities assets with the repurchase agreement liabilities. In addition, as the Company does not enter into reverse repurchase agreements, there is no such offsetting to be done with the repurchase agreements.
The right of setoff for a repurchase agreement resembles a secured borrowing, whereby the collateral would be used to settle the fair value of the repurchase agreement should the Company be in default (e.g., fails to make an interest payment to the counterparty). The collateral is held by a correspondent bank in the counterparty’s custodial account. The counterparty has the right to sell or repledge the investment securities.

Long-Term Borrowings and Letters of Credit
Long-term borrowings are comprised of advances from the FHLB. The Company’s long-term borrowings consist of notes at fixed interest rates. Upon any default, under the terms of a master agreement, the FHLB may declare all indebtedness of the Company immediately due. In addition, the FHLB shall not be required to fund advances under
any outstanding commitments. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had$106,000,000 in long-term borrowings outstanding with the FHLB.
Irrevocable standby letters of credit may be issued to a customer/beneficiary by the FHLB on the Company’s behalf in order to secure public/municipal unit deposits, provide credit enhancement to certain transaction types, or to support payment obligations to third parties. These irrevocable standby letters of credit are supported by an irrevocable and independent guarantee by the FHLB for the Company’s pledging obligation to secure public/municipal unit deposits which eliminates the need for the Company to pledge collateral in the amount necessary to secure these funds. There wereno irrevocable standby letters of credit which could be drawn on through the FHLB’s close of business on March 31, 2026 or December 31, 2025. Any irrevocable standby letters of credit are issued as necessary in an amount appropriate to secure specific public/municipal unit deposits.
Under terms of a blanket agreement, collateral for the FHLB loans and letters of credit consists of certain qualifying assets of the Bank. Principal qualifying assets are certain real estate mortgages and investment securities. As of March 31, 2026, loans of $759,924,000 were pledged to the FHLB which resulted in a FHLB maximum borrowing capacity of $529,750,000. As of March 31, 2026, no securities were pledged as collateral to the FHLB to secure FHLB loans and letters of credit.
NOTE 7 — SUBORDINATED DEBT
On December 10, 2020, the Corporation issued $25,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Subordinated Notes due 2030 (the “2020 Notes”) to accredited investors. The 2020 Notes are intended to be treated as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes. The Company utilized the net proceeds it received from the sale of the 2020 Notes to support organic growth and for general corporate purposes.
The 2020 Notes carry a variable interest rate which floats based on a benchmark rate (as defined). Interest is payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31. The 2020 Notes will mature on December 31, 2030 and are redeemable in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, at any time after December 31, 2025 and prior to December 31, 2030. Additionally, if all or any portion of the 2020 Notes cease to be deemed Tier 2 capital, the Corporation may redeem, in whole and not in part, at any time upon giving not less thanten days’ notice, an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the principal amount outstanding plus accrued but unpaid interest to but excluding the date fixed for redemption.
Holders of the 2020 Notes may not accelerate the maturity of the 2020 Notes, except upon the bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, receivership or similar law of the Corporation or the Bank.
NOTE 8 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
In the normal course of business, there are various pending legal actions and proceedings that are not reflected in the consolidated financial statements. Management does not believe the outcome of these actions and proceedings will have a material effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company.
The Company currently leasestwo branch banking facilities andone parcel of land under operating leases. At March 31, 2026, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were recorded related to these operating leases totaling $1,332,000 and $1,871,000, respectively. At December 31, 2025, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities stood at $1,326,000 and $1,862,000, respectively, in the consolidated balance sheets.
The Company recognized total operating lease costs for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 of $52,000 and $48,000, respectively. Operating lease costs are included in occupancy, net in the accompanying statements of income. Cash payments totaled $48,000 and $44,000, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
The Company currently hasone finance lease for equipment. At March 31, 2026, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were recorded related to the finance lease totaling $44,000 and $31,000, respectively. At December 31, 2025, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were recorded related to the finance lease totaling $29,000 and $33,000. Amounts
recognized as right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to finance leases are included in premises and equipment, net and other liabilities, respectively, in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Total finance lease costs that were recognized by the Company for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were immaterial. Cash payments totaled $2,000 and $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Options to extend or terminate a lease may be included in the Company’s lease agreements. When it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise those options, the right-of-use asset and lease liability will reflect the renewal or termination option. No significant assumptions or judgements were made in determining whether a contract contained a lease or in the consideration of lease versus non-lease components. None of the leases contained an implicit rate; therefore, the Company’s incremental borrowing rate was used for each of the leases.
The following table displays the weighted-average term and discount rates for operating and finance leases outstanding as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

NOTE 9 — DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
The Company uses various financial instruments, including derivatives, to manage its exposure to interest rate risk. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and cash payments principally related to specific assets and short-term wholesale funding positions. The Company began utilizing swap contracts in the third quarter of 2023.

Fair Value Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Company is exposed to changes in the fair value of certain of its fixed-rate assets due to changes in benchmark interest rates. The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to changes in fair value on these instruments attributable to changes in the designated benchmark interest rates. Interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges involve the payment of fixed-rate amounts to a counterparty in exchange for the Company receiving variable-rate payments over the life of the agreements without the exchange of the underlying notional amount. Such derivatives are used to hedge the changes in fair value of certain of its pools of fixed rate assets. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had a total offour interest rate swaps with a combined notional amount of $95,519,000 hedging fixed-rate available-for-sale debt securities andone interest rate swap with a notional amount of $75,000,000 hedging fixed-rate loans. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had a total offour interest rate swaps with a combined notional amount
of $96,646,000 hedging fixed-rate debt securities available-for-sale andone interest rate swap with a notional amount of $75,000,000 hedging fixed rate loans.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the following amounts were recorded on the balance sheet related to the cumulative basis adjustment for fair value hedges:

The amount of (loss) gain, net of fair value re-measurements, included in interest income on the Company’s consolidated statements of income for derivative instruments designated as fair value hedges was $(114,000) for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and $164,000 for the same period in 2025.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Company uses derivatives to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company has entered into interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. These interest rate products are designated as cash flow hedges. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had a total oftwo interest rate swaps with a combined notional amount of $100,000,000 hedging specific short-term wholesale funding positions.
For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the gain or loss on the derivatives is recorded in other comprehensive loss and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. During the next twelve months, it is estimated that an additional $704,000 will be reclassified as interest expense.
Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the payment of fixed-rate amounts to a counterparty in exchange for the Company receiving variable-rate payments over the life of the agreements without the exchange of the underlying notional amount. For cash flow hedges on the Company's short-term wholesale funding positions,
amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s hedged variable rate short-term wholesale funding positions.
The table below presents the pre-tax effects of the Company’s derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges on the Consolidated Statements of Income for the year-to-date periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features
The Company has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations and could be required to terminate its derivative positions with the counterparty. The Company also has agreements with its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company fails to maintain its status as a well-capitalized institution, then the Company could be required to terminate its derivative positions with the counterparty. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s derivatives were in a net liability position resulting in the Company having collateral in the amount of $6,570,000 posted with the counterparty at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
NOTE 10 — FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK AND CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK
Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments. The Company does not engage in trading activities with respect to any of its financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk.
The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of non-performance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments.
The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.
The Company may require collateral or other security to support financial instruments with off-balance sheet credit risk.
The contract or notional amounts at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were as follows:
| · · · · · · · | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| (Dollars in thousands) · · · · · · · | |||||
| | | March 31, 2026 | | December 31, 2025 | |
| Financial instruments whose contract amounts represent credit risk: · · · · | |||||
| Commitments to extend credit | | $135,707 | | $120,554 | |
| Financial standby letters of credit | | $2,310 | | $2,411 | |
| Performance standby letters of credit | | $3,313 | | $3,825 | |
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses that may require payment of a fee. Since some of the commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the borrower. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, owner-occupied income-producing commercial properties, and residential real estate.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee payment to a third party when a customer either fails to repay an obligation or fails to perform some non-financial obligation. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The Company may hold collateral (similar to the items held as collateral for commitments to extend credit) to support standby letters of credit for which collateral is deemed necessary.
Financial Instruments with Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company originates primarily commercial and residential real estate loans to customers predominately in the Company’s primary, Pennsylvania market area. The ability of the majority of the Company’s customers to honor their contractual loan obligations is dependent on the economy and real estate market in this area. At March 31, 2026, the Company had $839,239,000 in loans secured by real estate, which represented 90.1% of total loans, compared to December 31, 2025 when the Company had $853,668,000 in loans secured by real estate, which represented 90.2% of total loans. The real estate loan portfolio is largely secured by lessors of residential buildings and dwellings, lessors of non-residential buildings, and lessors of hotels/motels. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, management is of the opinion that there were no concentrations exceeding 10% of total loans with regard to loans to borrowers who were engaged in similar activities that were similarly impacted by economic or other conditions.
As all financial instruments are subject to some level of credit risk, the Company requires collateral and/or guarantees for all loans. Collateral may include, but is not limited to property, plant, and equipment, commercial and/or residential real estate property, land, and pledge of securities. In the event of a borrower’s default, the collateral supporting the loan may be seized in order to recoup losses associated with the loan. The Company also establishes an allowance for credit losses that constitutes the amount available to absorb losses within the loan portfolio that may exist due to deficiencies in collateral values.
NOTE 11 — FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value measurement and disclosure guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell the asset or transfer the liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. This guidance provides additional information on determining when the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability has significantly decreased. The guidance also includes information on identifying circumstances when a transaction may not be considered orderly.
Fair value measurement and disclosure guidance provides a list of factors that a reporting entity should evaluate to determine whether there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in relation to normal market activity for the asset or liability. When the reporting entity concludes there has been a
significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, further analysis of the information from that market is needed and significant adjustments to the related prices may be necessary to estimate fair value in accordance with the fair value measurement and disclosure guidance.
This guidance clarifies that when there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, some transactions may not be orderly. In those situations, the entity must evaluate the weight of the evidence to determine whether the transaction is orderly. The guidance provides a list of circumstances that may indicate that a transaction is not orderly. A transaction price that is not associated with an orderly transaction is given little, if any, weight when estimating fair value.
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Inputs may be observable, meaning those that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the reporting entity’s own belief about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based upon the best information available. Fair value measurement and disclosure guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:
Level 1 Inputs: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
Level 2 Inputs: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability;
Level 3 Inputs: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).
A description of the valuation methodologies used for instruments measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth as follows.
Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

The estimated fair values of equity securities and US Treasury debt securities classified as Level 1 are derived from quoted market prices in active markets; the equity securities consist mainly of stocks held in other banks. The estimated fair values of all debt securities classified as Level 2 are obtained from nationally-recognized third-party pricing agencies. The estimated fair values are derived primarily from cash flow models, which include assumptions for interest rates, credit losses, and prepayment speeds. The significant inputs utilized in the cash flow models are based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company (observable inputs), and are therefore classified as Level
2 within the fair value hierarchy. The Company does not have any Level 3 inputs for securities. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 during 2026 or 2025.
Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
Periodically, non-recurring adjustments may be applied to the carrying value of loans based on the fair value measurements for partial charge-offs of the uncollectible portions of those loans. Non-recurring adjustments can also include certain specific allocation amounts for individually evaluated collateral-dependent loans as calculated when establishing the allowance for credit losses. The Company’s valuation procedure for any individually evaluated loans greater than $250,000 requires an appraisal to be obtained and reviewed annually at year end unless the Board of Directors waives such requirement for a specific loan, in favor of obtaining a Certificate of Inspection instead, defined as an internal evaluation completed by the Company. A quarterly collateral evaluation is performed which may include a site visit, property pictures and discussions with realtors and other similar business professionals to ascertain current values. For individually evaluated loans less than $250,000 upon classification and annually at year end, the Company completes a Certificate of Inspection, which includes an onsite inspection, and considers value indicators such as insured values, tax assessed values, recent sales comparisons and a review of the previous evaluations. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level that is significant to the fair value measurements. The fair value consists of the individually evaluated loan balances less the valuation allowance and/or charge-offs. There wereno transfers between valuation levels in 2026 and 2025.
Individually evaluated loans measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are as follows:

Nonfinancial Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
There wereno foreclosed assets held for resale measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
The Company’s foreclosed asset valuation procedure requires an appraisal or a Certificate of Inspection, which considers the sales prices of similar properties in the proximate vicinity, to be completed periodically with the exception of those cases in which the Bank has obtained a sales agreement. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level that is significant to the fair value measurements. There wereno transfers between valuation levels in 2026 and 2025.

NOTE 12 — REVENUE RECOGNITION
In accordance with ASC 606, the main types of revenue contracts included in non-interest income within the consolidated statements of income are as follows:
Deposits related fees and service charges
Service charges and fees on deposits, which are included as liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, consist of fees related tomonthly fees for various retail and business checking accounts, ATM fees (charged for withdrawals by our deposit customers from other bank ATMs) and insufficient funds fees (“NSF”) (which are charged when customers overdraw their accounts beyond available funds). All deposit liabilities are considered to have one-day terms and therefore related fees are recognized in income at the time when the services are provided to the customers. The Company elected to adopt the practical expedient related to incremental costs of obtaining deposit contracts. As such, any costs associated with acquiring the deposits, except for certificate of deposits (“CDs”) with maturities in excess of one year, are recognized as an expense within non-interest expense in the consolidated statements of income when incurred as the amortization period of the deposit liabilities that otherwise would have been recognized is one year or less.
Wealth/Asset/Trust Management Fees
Wealth management services are delivered to individuals, corporations and retirement funds located primarily within the Company’s geographic markets. The Trust Department of the Company conducts the wealth management operations, which provides a broad range of personal and corporate fiduciary services, including the administration of estates.
Assets held in a fiduciary capacity by the Trust Department are not assets of the Company and, therefore, are not included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Wealth management fees, which are contractually agreed with each customer, are earned each month and recognized on a monthly basis based on average fair value of the trust assets under management. The services provided under such a contract are considered a single performance obligation under ASC 606 because they embody a series of distinct goods or services that are substantially the same and have the same pattern of transfer to the customer. Wealth management fees charged by the Trust Department follow a tiered structure based on the type and size of the assets under management. Wealth management fees are included within non-interest income in the consolidated statements of income. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the fair value of trust assets under management was $121,442,000 and $122,111,000, respectively. The costs of acquiring asset
management customers are incremental and recognized within non-interest expense in the consolidated statements of income.
Interchange Fees and Surcharges
Interchange fees are related to the acceptance and settlement of debit card transactions, both point-of-sale and ATM, to cover operating costs and risks associated with the approval and settlement of the transactions. Interchange fees vary by type of transaction and each merchant sector. Net income recognized from interchange fees is included in non-interest income on the consolidated statements of income. A surcharge is assessed for use of the Company’s ATMs by non-customers. All interchange fees and surcharges are recognized as received on a daily basis for the prior business day’s transactions. All expenses related to the settlement of debit card transactions (both point-of-sale and ATM) are recognized on a monthly basis and included in non-interest expense on the consolidated statements of income.
NOTE 13 — EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the earnings of the Corporation. At March 31, 2026 and 2025, there wereno potential dilutive common shares outstanding. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share.
