Current report
Income before taxes was $56.8 million, a decrease of $3.6 million, or 6.0%, for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to income before taxes of $60.4 million for the same period in 2024.
Current report
The provision for credit losses for the year ended December 31, 2025, was $700,000, an increase of 100% compared to a $0 provision for the year ended December 31, 2024. This provision was primarily attributable to the 15% year-over-year loan growth realized during the period, as total loans increased by $209.0 million to $1.61 billion at December 31, 2025. The 2025 provisioning reflects management’s ongoing assessment of the allowance for credit losses required to support the expanded loan portfolio and incorporates updated economic assumptions relevant to the current environment. We continue to monitor credit metrics and economic indicators to ensure the allowance for credit losses remains at an appropriate level to address potential credit risks within the portfolio. See Note 5 of the financial statements for further disclosure and discussion.
Current report
We file a consolidated income tax return and recognize deferred taxes based upon the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax basis of assets and liabilities. The process of determining the accruals for income taxes involves the exercise of considerable judgment regarding tax rates, laws, and the implementation of tax planning strategies.
Current report
For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, all of our income before income taxes was generated from domestic operations. We do not currently have exposure to foreign tax jurisdictions; as such, our jurisdictional tax mix remains concentrated within the United States and specific state jurisdictions, primarily Oklahoma.
Current report
Our provision for income taxes was $13.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $14.7 million for 2024. This resulted in an effective tax rate of 24.13% in 2025, compared to 24.28% in 2024. The effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the effect of state income taxes (net of federal benefit) and nondeductible expenses. The year-over-year rate change was primarily driven by the impact of Oklahoma state taxes and certain nondeductible reconciling items. Cash taxes paid during 2025 totaled $13.7 million, compared to $15.1 million in 2024, reflecting our domestic jurisdictional profile and the timing of estimated tax payments.

Current report
Of our interest-bearing deposits, some were obtained through brokered transactions. As of December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, brokered deposits were $205.6 million, $225.5 million, and $50.1 million, respectively. To manage liquidity and provide insurance for customer funds, the Company participates in reciprocal deposit programs, such as CDARS and ICS. At December 31, 2025, reciprocal deposits totaled $576.5 million.

Previous report
Pre-tax net income was $60.4 million, an increase of $23.1 million, or 62.1%, for the year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to pre-tax net income of $37.2 million for the same period in 2023.
Previous report
The provision for credit losses for the year ended December 31, 2024 decreased $21.1 million, or 100%, from $21.1 million compared to the same period in 2023. The provision expense for the year ended December 31, 2023 was related to loan growth in the first quarter of 2023, the impact of updated economic assumptions, and we had a single loan customer that filed for bankruptcy, and as a result, we recorded a charge-off of $16.5 million, increased nonaccrual loans by $18.4 million, and recorded an additional specific reserve to the allowance for credit losses and provision for loan losses of $2.0 million. See Note (6) of the financial statements for further disclosure and discussion.

Goodwill and Intangibles
Previous report
Intangible assets totaled $878,000 and goodwill, net of accumulated amortization totaled $8.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to intangible assets of $1.0 million and goodwill, net of accumulated amortization of $8.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Previous report
Goodwill resulting from a business combination represents the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment or more frequently if other impairment indicators are present. If the implied fair value of goodwill is lower than its carrying amount, a goodwill impairment is indicated and goodwill is written down to its implied fair value. Subsequent increases in goodwill value are not recognized in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Previous report
Other intangible assets consist of core deposit intangible assets and are amortized on a straight-line basis based on an estimated useful life of 10 years. Such assets are periodically evaluated as to the recoverability of their carrying values.
Previous report
The Company files a consolidated income tax return. Deferred taxes are recognized under the balance sheet method based upon the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and tax basis of assets and liabilities, using the tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the periods when the related temporary differences are expected to be realized.
Previous report
The amount of accrued current and deferred income taxes is based on estimates of taxes due or receivable from taxing authorities either currently or in the future. Changes in these accruals are reported as tax expense, and involve estimates of the various components included in determining taxable income, tax credits, other taxes and temporary differences. Changes periodically occur in the estimates due to changes in tax rates, tax laws and regulations and implementation of new tax planning strategies. The process of determining the accruals for income taxes necessarily involves the exercise of considerable judgment and consideration of numerous subjective factors.
Previous report
Management performs an analysis of the Company’s tax positions annually and believes it is more likely than not that all of its tax positions will be utilized in future years.
Previous report
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Previous report
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell a financial asset or paid to transfer a financial liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The degree of management judgment involved in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities is dependent upon the availability of quoted market prices or observable market parameters. For financial instruments that trade actively and have quoted market prices or observable market parameters, there is minimal subjectivity involved in measuring fair value. When observable market prices and parameters are not available, management judgment is necessary to estimate fair value. In addition, changes in market conditions may reduce the availability of quoted prices or the observable date.
Previous report
Debt securities that are being held for indefinite periods of time and are not intended to sell, are classified as available for sale and are stated at estimated fair value. Unrealized gains or losses on debt securities available for sale are reported as a component of stockholders’ equity and comprehensive income, net of income tax.
Previous report
The Company reviews its portfolio of debt securities in an unrealized loss position at least quarterly. The Company first assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more-likely-than-not that it will be required to sell, the securities before recovery of the amortized cost basis. If either of these criteria is met, the securities amortized cost basis is written down to fair value as a current period expense. If either of the above criteria is not met, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value is the result of credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, the Company considers, among other things, the period of time the security has been in an unrealized loss position, and performance of any underlying collateral and adverse conditions specifically related to the security.
Previous report
The estimates of fair values of debt securities and other financial instruments are based on a variety of factors. In some cases, fair values represent quoted market prices for identical or comparable instruments. In other cases, fair values have been estimated based on assumptions concerning the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows and assumed discount rates reflecting varying degrees of risk. Accordingly, the fair values may not represent actual values of the financial instruments that could have been realized as of year-end or that will be realized in the future.

Previous wording
As of December 31, 2024, we had total assets of $1.74 billion, total loans of $1.40 billion, total deposits of $1.52 billion and total shareholders’ equity of $213.2 million.
Current wording
As of December 31, 2025, we had total assets of $1.96 billion, total loans of $1.61 billion, total deposits of $1.70 billion and total shareholders’ equity of $251.0 million.
Previous wording
The U.S. economy experienced widespread volatility throughout 2020 and 2021 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and government responses to the pandemic. Economic condition declined rapidly and significantly following the initial widespread U.S. outbreak in March and April of 2020. Federal stimulus was quickly passed in the form of the CARES Act and the economy rebounded significantly in the second half of 2020. In an emergency measure aimed at dampening the economic impact of COVID-19, the Federal Reserve lowered the target for the federal funds rate to a range of between zero to 0.25% effective on March 16, 2020 where it remained through the end of 2020. This action by the Federal Reserve followed a prior reduction of the targeted federal funds rates to a range of 1.0% to 1.25% effective March 4, 2020. As the pandemic eased through 2021 and inflation increased, the Federal Reserve aggressively raised the federal funds target rate to 4.25-4.50% by the end of 2022 and to 5.25%-5.50% by the end of 2023. In 2024, the Federal Reserve began to adjust monetary policy, ultimately lowering the federal funds rate three times, ending the year with a target range of 4.25% to 4.5%. These monetary policy actions, along with the impact of the elevated interest rate environment experienced earlier in 2024, influenced our net interest income and credit quality throughout the year.
Current wording
The Federal Reserve aggressively raised the federal funds target rate throughout 2022 and 2023 to combat elevated inflation, reaching a peak range of 5.25% to 5.50% by December 31, 2023. In 2024, the Federal Reserve began to adjust monetary policy, ultimately lowering the federal funds rate three times to end that year with a target range of 4.25% to 4.50%. This easing cycle continued into 2025, with the Federal Reserve implementing three additional 25-basis-point reductions in the second half of the year. As of December 31, 2025, the federal funds target range stood at 3.50% to 3.75%. These monetary policy actions, along with the impact of the transition from a peak-rate environment, compressed our net interest margin while generally supporting stable credit quality throughout 2025.

Previous wording
To determine the adequacy of the allowance, the loan portfolio is broken into segments based on loan type. Historical loss experience factors by segment, adjusted for changes in trends and conditions, are used to determine an indicated allowance for each portfolio segment. These factors are evaluated and updated based on the composition of the specific loan segment. Other considerations include volumes and trends of delinquencies, nonaccrual loans, levels of bankruptcies, criticized and classified loan trends, expected losses on real estate secured loans, new credit products and policies, economic conditions, concentrations of credit risk and the experience and abilities of our lending personnel. In addition to the segment evaluations, impaired loans with a balance of $250,000 or more are individually evaluated based on facts and circumstances of the loan to determine if a specific allowance amount may be necessary. Specific allowances may also be established for loans whose outstanding balances are below the $250,000 threshold when it is determined that the risk associated with the loan differs significantly from the risk factor amounts established for its loan segment.

Previous wording
Loans are evaluated for expected credit losses over their contractual term, reflecting management’s current estimate. Loans placed on nonaccrual status and loan modifications granted to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty are considered to have elevated credit risk and are carefully considered within our current expected credit loss methodology. Income from loans placed on nonaccrual status continues to be recognized to the extent cash is received and when the collectability of the loan’s principal balance is reasonably assured. Depending on a particular loan’s risk characteristics, we estimate expected credit losses using methods such as present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, observable market prices for similar assets if available, or the fair value of collateral less estimated costs to sell for collateral-dependent loans. A loan is considered collateral-dependent when the expected source of repayment is primarily the liquidation of the collateral. Fair value, where utilized, is determined by independent appraisals, typically on an annual basis. Between appraisal periods, the estimated fair value may be adjusted based on specific events, such as identified deterioration of collateral quality through our credit risk monitoring, or discussions with the borrower indicating the appraised value may no longer reflect current market conditions. The estimated credit losses are recognized as an allowance for credit losses, which is a valuation account. Changes in the allowance for credit losses, whether increases or decreases, are recorded in current period earnings as provision for credit losses.

We gather deposits primarily through our twelve branch locations and online though our website. We offer a variety of deposit products including demand deposit accounts and interest-bearing products, such as savings accounts and certificates of deposit. We put continued effort into gathering noninterest-bearing demand deposit accounts through loan production cross-selling, customer referrals, marketing efforts and various involvement with community networks. Some of our interest-bearing deposits were obtained through brokered transactions.
