Current report
During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the trajectory of our loan growth was impacted by unanticipated payoffs aggregating $81.1 million, compared to $28.5 million during the same period last year.
Current report
As presented below, the allowance for credit losses decreased by $2.1 million, or 7.3%, to $26.3 million, or 1.38% of total loans at June 30, 2026, from $28.4 million, or 1.48% of total loans at June 30, 2025. The decrease in the allowance was due primarily to slower loan growth during 2026 combined with lower reserves associated with the composition of loans closed in 2026 and a $633 thousand reduction related to loans transferred to loans held-for-sale during the first six months of 2026. The six months ended June 30, 2026 also included net chargeoffs of approximately $524 thousand.

Current report
General. Net income increased $3.2 million, or 30.6%, to $13.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $10.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was driven primarily by an increase of $3.3 million related to net interest income growth, a decrease of $5.2 million in provision for income taxes and a decrease of $3.1 million in provision for credit losses on loans, partially offset by a decrease of $7.9 million in noninterest income and an increase of $515 thousand in noninterest expense in the current period. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $24.9 million, as compared to $19.2 million for the same period in 2025. The overall increase was driven by $7.6 million of net interest income growth combined with decreased provision for
Current report
income taxes of $4.5 million and a decreased provision for credit losses on loans of $3.8 million, partially offset by a decrease in noninterest income of $8.1 million and an increase of $1.9 million in noninterest expense during the first six months of 2026 as compared to the same prior year period.
Current report
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, interest income on loans, increased by $4.0 million, or 7.2%, reaching $59.4 million as compared to $55.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in interest income on loans represents the impact of growth in average loan balances of $107.4 million between the six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025. The increase in average loans outstanding was due to growth in multi-family, commercial real estate and home equity lines. The average yield on loans increased by nine basis points to 6.11% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from 6.02% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 as a result of disciplined loan pricing during 2026.
Current report
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, interest income on securities including restricted stock decreased by $601 thousand to $5.9 million during the period from $6.5 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in interest income on securities was due to a decrease in the average balances of securities during the current period and a decrease in the average rate paid on such investments. The average balance of securities decreased by $27.7 million, or 6.2%, to $416.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $444.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, due to investment prepayments and certain securities maturities during the six months ended June 30, 2026. The average yield on investment securities decreased by 10 basis points from 2.97% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 to 2.87% for the six months ended June 30, 2026. The decrease in the average yield on securities was related to the repayments and maturities of higher yielding securities during the first half of 2026.
Current report
Interest expense decreased $3.7 million, or 22.7%, to $12.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from $16.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in interest expense reflects the lower interest rate environment combined with the continuing effect of increased core deposits, specifically noninterest-bearing deposits on overall deposit expense with lower funding costs during the period. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased 42 basis points to 1.57% during the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to 1.99% for the six month period ended June 30, 2025. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities decreased by $32.7 million, or 2.0%, to $1.6 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $1.7 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Current report
Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits decreased by $3.0 million to $11.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from $14.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in interest expense on interest-bearing deposits was due mainly to a decrease in the average rate on interest-bearing deposits during the current period. The average rate of interest-bearing deposits decreased 39 basis points to 1.47% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to 1.86% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 as a result of the lower interest rate environment. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased by $10.1 million, or 0.6%, to $1.6 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and remained leveled as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily as a result of the increases in the average balances of interest bearing demand deposits and savings deposit accounts.
Current report
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, net interest income increased $7.6 million, or 15.5%, to $56.3 million from $48.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 due to an increase in net interest margin combined with increased average interest earning assets for the current period. The net interest margin increased 42 basis points to 4.42% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from 4.00% for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Current report
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recognized a net recovery of $1.5 million in the provision for credit losses as compared to a $2.3 million provision for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decreased provision for the six months ended June 30, 2026 represented the effect of lower levels of specific reserves associated with certain composition of loans closed during the first half of 2026 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025 offset by loan portfolio growth during the current period.
Current report
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, noninterest income decreased by $8.1 million, or 69.4%, to $3.6 million as compared to $11.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Current report
as a result of reduction in assets under management, primarily due to residual effects from last year’s divisional restructuring. The six months ended June 30, 2026 also included the impact associated with a valuation allowance related to loans classified as held-for-sale, and the branch location sale, and the BOLI proceeds, both in the prior year period as described above.
Current report
Non-interest expense was $35.2 million for the first half of 2026, reflecting an increase of approximately $1.9 million, or 5.8%, as compared to $33.3 million for the same period in 2025. The increase in non-interest expense for the current six month period was also due to continued investment in overall Company growth, primarily, increases in salaries and benefits, occupancy expense and professional fees, partially offset by a decrease in computer software expense. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, our efficiency ratio was 58.8% as compared to 55.0% for the same period in 2025.
Current report
For the six months ended June 30, 2026, our provision for income taxes was $1.2 million, as compared to $5.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease was related to the Company’s reversal of the deferred tax valuation allowance during the current six month period. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company reevaluated the realizability of its deferred tax assets based on positive and negative evidence under ASC 740. The Company concluded that it is now more likely than not that a portion of our deferred tax assets related to net operating loss carryforwards will be realized. This conclusion was driven by significant positive evidence, including three and one-half years of profitable operations and updated multi-year financial projections. Our effective tax rate for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026 was 4.6%, as compared to 23.0% for the same period in 2025.

Allowance for Credit Losses. Management believes that the determination of the allowance for credit losses involves a high degree of complexity and requires management to make difficult and subjective judgments, which often require assumptions or estimates about highly uncertain matters. Changes in these judgments, assumptions or estimates could materially impact the results of operations for Orange County Bancorp. The methodology, assumptions, and governance of this CECL model have been codified in a policy document that was most recently reviewed and approved by the Company’s Audit & Risk Committee during the fourth quarter of 2025. While there were no fundamental changes to the CECL model during the quarter, management evaluated certain probability of default assumptions as well as the loss driver analysis. This evaluation resulted in adjustment of certain assumptions but were not considered significant changes to the model. Accordingly, management believes there were no significant changes to the critical accounting estimates during the three months ended March 31, 2026, and as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2026. A summary of our accounting policies, including the Allowance for Credit Losses, is included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Net loans decreased $38.0 million, or 2.0% to $1.9 billion at June 30, 2026 from December 31, 2025. The decrease in loans was primarily due to$68.4 million of loans transferred to loans held-for-sale and a decrease of $10.2 million in commercial and industrial loans.

Previous wording
When we acquire real estate as a result of foreclosure, the real estate is classified as real estate owned. The real estate owned is recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less estimated costs to sell. Soon after acquisition, we order a new appraisal to determine the current market value of the property. Any excess of the recorded value of the loan satisfied over the market value of the property is charged against the allowance for credit losses, or, if the existing allowance is inadequate, charged to expense of the current period. After acquisition, all costs incurred in maintaining the property are expensed. Costs relating to the development and improvement of the property, however, are capitalized to the extent of estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell. Management will consider a modification of loan terms, such as a reduction of the interest rate to below market terms, capitalizing past due interest or extending the maturity date and possibly a partial forgiveness of the principal amount due, when it is deemed appropriate based on individual borrower conditions. Interest income on restructured loans is accrued after the borrower demonstrates the ability to pay under the restructured terms through a sustained period of repayment performance, which is generally six consecutive months.

The following table sets forth information regarding our non-performing assets. Non-performing loans aggregated approximately $22.2 million at June 30, 2026 as compared to $11.1 million at December 31, 2025.
Previous wording
Non-performing loans at March 31, 2026 totaled $26.1 million and consisted of $23.0 million related to commercial real estate loans, $2.3 million associated with commercial and industrial loans, and $833 thousand of home equity loans. Although there was an increase in the commercial and industrial segment of the portfolio, the level of non-performing loans was still mainly related to the commercial real estate portfolio. The commercial real estate non-performing loans were mainly the result of payment disruption and non-accrual classification during the quarter for a $14.3 million participation related to a senior living facility and the continued non-performance of a non-accrual commercial real estate office space loan participation which was classified as non-accrual during the second quarter of 2024. The office space loan remained at $6.0 million as of March 31, 2026. The other loans designated as non-accrual were based upon individual analysis and payment performance. We had no other real estate owned at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
Current wording
Non-performing loans at June 30, 2026 totaled $22.2 million and consisted of $15.6 million related to commercial real estate loans, $2.4 million associated with commercial and industrial loans, and $833 thousand related to home equity loans. Although there was an increase in the commercial and industrial segment of the portfolio, the level of non-performing loans was still mainly related to the commercial real estate portfolio. The commercial real estate non-performing loans were mainly the result of a $14.2 million commercial real estate participation loan that experienced payment disruption during the six months ended June 30, 2026 due to bankruptcy at the parent company, offset partially by settlement of a previously reported participation loan for an office complex. The settlement reduced non-performing loans by approximately $6.0 million during the second quarter of 2026. Total accruing loans 90 days or more past due represented $3.3 million of loans as of June 30, 2026, compared to $18 thousand at December 31, 2025. The increase in accruing loans 90 days or more past due was related primarily to a commercial real estate participation loan that experienced an administrative delay in the processing of an extension/modification during the six months ended June 30, 2026 due to divorce proceedings, and remains a performing loan and in accrual status at June 30, 2026.

Classified Assets. Federal regulations provide that loans and other assets of lesser quality should be classified as “substandard”, “doubtful” or “loss” assets. An asset is considered “substandard” if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. “Substandard” assets include those characterized by the “distinct possibility” that we will sustain “some loss” if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as “doubtful” have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified “substandard,” with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make “collection or liquidation in full,” on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, “highly questionable and improbable.” Assets

This decrease represents a continued strategic initiative to reduce short term brokered deposits as a result of increased core deposits and allow for replacement of maturing brokered deposits with transactional customer deposits with lower interest expense. Our reciprocal deposits obtained through the CDARS and ICS networks totaled $128.8 million at March 31, 2026 and the CDARS and ICS deposits totaled $101.8 million at December 31, 2025.
