To the Shareholders, Board of Directors, and Audit Committee Bank7 Corp.

Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Bank7 Corp. (“Company”) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2023 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Change in Accounting Principle

As discussed in Notes 1 and 6 to the financial statements, the Company changed its method of accounting for loans and the allowance for credit losses in 2023 due to the adoption of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits.

We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the

U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Shareholders, Board of Directors, and Audit Committee Bank7 Corp.

Critical Audit Matters

The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.

Allowance for Credit Losses – Loans

The Company adopted Topic 326 effective January 1, 2023. The Company’s loan portfolio totaled $1.34 billion as of December 31, 2023 and the allowance for credit losses – loans (“ACL") was $19.7 million. As more fully described in Notes 1 and 6 to the financial statements, the ACL is a contra-asset valuation account, calculated in accordance with Topic 326, that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans to present the net amount expected to be collected.

The amount of the ACL represents management’s best estimate of current expected credit losses on loans considering all available information from internal and external sources, relevant to assessing exposure to credit loss over the contractual term of the loans. Loans with similar risk characteristics are aggregated into homogenous segments for assessment. Reserve factors are based on estimated probability of default (“PD”) and loss given default (“LGD”) for substantially all segments. The estimates include economic forecasts over the reasonable and supportable forecast period based on projected performance of economic variables that have a statistical relationship.

Management qualitatively adjusts its model results for risk factors such as that were not considered within the modeling processes but were still relevant in assessing the expected credit losses within the loan pools. In some cases, management determined that an individual loan exhibited unique characteristics which differentiated the loan from other loans with the identified loan pools. In such cases, the loans were evaluated for expected credit losses on an individual basis and excluded from the collective evaluation.

Auditing management’s estimate of the ACL involved a high degree of subjectivity due to the nature of the qualitative factor adjustments included in the ACL and complexities of the PD and LGD model. Management’s identification and measurement of the qualitative factor adjustments are highly judgmental and had a significant effect on the ACL.

The primary audit procedures we performed as of December 31, 2023 to address this critical matter included:

•Obtained an understanding of the Company’s process for establishing the ACL
•Evaluated and tested the design of internal controls over the reliability and accuracy of data used to calculate and estimate the components of the ACL including:
oLoan data completeness and accuracy
oGrouping of loans by segment
oModel inputs including PD, LGD, and discounted cash flow
oModel assumptions
oEstablishment of qualitative factors
oLoan risk ratings
•Tested the completeness and accuracy of the data utilized in the ACL
•Tested the model’s mathematical accuracy
•Evaluated the relevance and reliability of data and assumptions used in the estimate
•Evaluated the qualitative and economic forecast adjustments to the historical loss rates, including assessing the basis for the adjustments and the reasonableness of the significant assumptions
•Evaluated credit quality trends in delinquencies, non-accruals, charge offs, and loan risk gradings
•Tested the internal loan review function and evaluated the reasonableness of loan grades

Shareholders, Board of Directors, and Audit Committee Bank7 Corp.

•Evaluated the reasonableness of specific allocations associated with individually evaluated loans
•Evaluated the overall reasonableness of the ACL and compared to trends identified within peer group
•Evaluated the reasonableness of methodology utilized by a third party in determining loss driver economic performance variables
•Evaluated the accuracy and completeness of Topic 326 disclosures in the financial statements

Other Assets – Oil and Gas Property

The value of the Oil and Gas Property was $13.5 million at December 31, 2023. The asset is included in other assets on the consolidated balance sheet. As more fully described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Oil and Gas Property held by the Company is accounted for under the successful efforts method of accounting.

The fair value of proved properties (no unproved properties are held) are measured using valuation techniques that convert future cashflows to a single discounted amount. To estimate the value of reserves, management employs a specialist who makes significant estimates using significant inputs and assumptions including forecasting timing, volume of production, and corresponding rate of production decline for producing properties.

Auditing management’s estimate of fair value of proved properties involved a high degree of subjectivity and complexity due to the nature of inputs and assumptions. The changes in certain inputs and assumptions which are subjective in nature could have a significant impact on depletion expense and the fair value of the Oil and Gas Property.

The primary audit procedures we performed as of December 31, 2023 to address this critical matter included:

•Obtained an understanding of the Company’s process for preparing the oil and gas reserve estimates
•Identified inputs and assumptions that were significant to the period end determination of proved reserve volumes and tested management’s process of determining the significant inputs and assumptions, as follows:
oAssessed the reasonableness of operating cost inputs by comparing the forecasted amount to current year actual costs
oAssessed the reasonableness of forecasted capital expenditures by comparing to management’s planned future investment
oAssessed the reasonableness of forecasted production estimates by (i) comparing forecasted production amounts to actual results and (ii) comparing forecasted production amounts in the current year reserve report to the actual historical production amounts in the current year
oVouched the working and royalty interests used in the reserve report to underlying ownership records
oAssessed the reasonableness of pricing inputs and market differentials by comparing to third-party sources and actual results in the current year
