NORTHRIM BANCORP INC

NOTE 1 -Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations: Northrim BanCorp, Inc. (the “Company”), is a publicly traded bank holding company headquartered in Anchorage, Alaska that is primarily engaged in the delivery of business and personal banking services through its wholly-owned banking subsidiary, Northrim Bank (“the Bank”). The Bank also engages in retail mortgage origination services through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Residential Mortgage, LLC (“RML”). In addition, the Bank also engages in specialty finance activities through a division of the Bank, Northrim Funding Services (“NFS”), which operates a factoring division in Bellevue, Washington, and through the Bank's wholly-owned subsidiary, Sallyport Commercial Finance, LLC (“SCF”), which provides factoring, asset based lending and alternative working capital solutions to small and medium sized enterprises in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. The Company completed the acquisition of SCF on October 31, 2024. SCF holds a 100% interest in Sallyport Commercial Finance CAN, LLC, and a 40% interest in Sallyport Commercial Finance LTD (“SCF LTD”). Sallyport Commercial Finance ULC (“SCF CAN”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sallyport Commercial Finance CAN, LLC, and SCF LTD offer the same products and services as SCF, but they operate in Canada and the United Kingdom, respectively.

Use of Estimates: The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and prevailing practices within the banking industry. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of income, gains, expenses, and losses during the reporting periods. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”), valuation of goodwill and other intangibles, and valuation of mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”).

Consolidation: The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Bank, RML, SCF, and Northrim Investment Services Company (“NISC”). Significant intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation. As of December 31, 2025, the Company hadone wholly-owned business trust subsidiary, Northrim Statutory Trust 2 (“Trust 2”), that was formed to issue trust preferred securities and related common securities of Trust 2. The Company has not consolidated the accounts of Trust 2 in its consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. As a result, the junior subordinated debentures issued by the Company to Trust 2 are reflected on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as junior subordinated debentures.

Variable interest entities (“VIEs”): The Company consolidates affiliates in which we have a controlling interest. To determine if we have a controlling financial interest in an entity we first evaluate if we are required to apply the variable interest entity model, otherwise the entity is evaluated under the voting interest model. The Company continuously evaluates its non-majority owned investments in affiliates to determine if they are VIEs. Where we hold current or potential rights that give us the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance combined with a variable interest that gives us the right to receive potentially significant benefits or the obligation to absorb potentially significant losses, we have a controlling financial interest in that VIE. Rights held by others to remove the party with power over the VIE are not considered unless one party can exercise those rights unilaterally. When changes occur to the design of an entity we reconsider whether it is subject to the VIE model. We continuously evaluate whether we have a controlling financial interest in a VIE. We hold a controlling financial interest in other entities where we currently hold, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of the voting rights or where we exercise control through substantive participating rights. We reevaluate whether we have a controlling financial interest in these entities when our voting or substantive participating rights change.

Affiliates are unconsolidated VIEs and other entities in which we do not have a controlling financial interest, but over which we have significant influence, most often because we hold a voting interest of 20% to 50%. Affiliates are accounted for as equity method investments.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company owns a 100% interest in RML and a 100% interest in SCF and consolidates these entities into its financial statements.

The Company owns a 21% interest in Pacific Wealth Advisors, LLC (“PWA”), a 40% interest in SCF LTD, and owned a 30% interest in Homestate prior to its dissolution in 2023, and these investments are accounted for as equity method investments. The Company does not consolidate the balance sheets and income statements of PWA, Homestate, or SCF LTD into its financial statements. The Company has determined that PWA and Homestate are not VIEs. The Company has determined that SCF LTD is a VIE. However, the Company does not have a controlling interest in SCF LTD and therefore does not consolidate SCF LTD's operations into its financial statements. The Company's portion of the results of PWA, SCF LTD, and Homestate, prior to its dissolution in 2023, are included in “Other income” in our Consolidated Statements of Income. Investments in low income housing tax credit companies are presented on a one-line basis in the caption “Other assets” in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Operating Segments: Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company uses the "management approach" in determining reportable operating segments. The management approach considers the internal organization and reporting used by the Company's CODM for making operating decisions and assessing performance as the source for determining the Company's reportable segments. Management, including the CODM, review operating results by the revenue of different services. For the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company hasthree operating business lines; Community Banking, Home Mortgage Lending, and Specialty Finance. Information about the Company's reportable segments is included in Note 26.

Stock split: Effective September 18, 2025 the Company effected afour-for-one forward stock split of its common stock, a proportionate increase in the number of authorized shares of the common stock from 10,000,000 to 40,000,000, and a proportionate decrease in the par value of the common stock from $1.00 per share to $0.25 per share. All share, equity award, and per share amounts presented throughout this report have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the common stock split.

Reclassifications: Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to maintain consistency with the current year with no impact on net income or total shareholders’ equity.

Subsequent Events: The Company has evaluated events and transactions subsequent to December 31, 2025 for potential recognition or disclosure.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks, interest-bearing deposits with other banks, federal funds sold, and securities with original maturities of less than 90 days at acquisition.

Equity Securities: Marketable equity securities are stated at fair value. Changes in fair value are included in “Unrealized gain (loss) on marketable equity securities” in our Consolidated Statements of Income.

Non-marketable equity securities are accounted for under the equity method of accounting and are included in other assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company performs an impairment analysis on its non-marketable equity securities when events or circumstances indicate impairment potentially exists.

Investment Securities: Debt securities are classified as available for sale if the Company intends and has the ability to hold those securities for an indefinite period of time, but not necessarily to maturity. Any decision to sell a debt security classified as available for sale would be based on various factors, including significant movements in interest rates, changes in the maturity mix of assets and liabilities, liquidity needs, regulatory capital considerations, and other similar factors. Premiums and discounts are amortized over the life of the related investment security as an adjustment to yield using the effective interest method. Dividend and interest income are recognized when earned.

Securities available for sale are stated at fair value. Realized gains or losses, determined on the basis of the cost of specific securities sold, are included in earnings. Unrealized holding gains or losses are included in other comprehensive income as a separate component of shareholders' equity, net of tax.

Held to maturity securities are stated at cost, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount on a level-yield basis. The Company has the ability and intent to hold these securities to maturity.

The Company amortizes purchase premiums for callable debt securities to the earliest call date and discounts are accreted over the contractual life.

Allowance for Credit Losses - Investment Securities: For available for sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company evaluates the securities to determine whether the decline in the fair value below the amortized cost basis (impairment) is due to credit-related factors or noncredit-related factors. Any impairment that is not credit related is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. Credit-related impairment is recognized as an ACL on the balance sheet, limited to the amount by which the amortized cost basis exceeds the fair value, with a corresponding adjustment to earnings.

The ACL may be reversed if conditions change. However, if the Company intends to sell an impaired available for sale debt security or more likely than not will be required to sell such a security before recovering its amortized cost basis, the entire impairment amount must be recognized in earnings with a corresponding adjustment to the security’s amortized cost basis. Because the security’s amortized cost basis is adjusted to fair value, there would be no ACL.

In evaluating available for sale debt securities in unrealized loss positions for impairment and the criteria regarding its intent or requirement to sell such securities, the Company considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, whether the securities are issued by the federal government or its agencies, whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred, and the results of reviews of the issuers’ financial condition, among other factors.

Changes in the ACL are recorded as provision for (or reversal of) credit loss expense. Losses are charged against the ACL when management believes the uncollectability of an available for sale debt security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met.

The ACL on held to maturity securities is estimated on a collective basis by major security type. At December 31, 2025, the Company’s held to maturity securities consisted of investments in corporate bonds. Expected credit losses for these securities are estimated using a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) methodology which considers historical credit loss information that is adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts.

Accrued interest receivable is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.

Federal Home Loan Bank Stock: The Company’s investment in Federal Home Loan Bank of Des Moines (“FHLB”) stock is carried at par value because the shares can only be redeemed with the FHLB at par. The Company is required to maintain a minimum level of investment in FHLB stock based on the Company’s total Bank assets and outstanding advances. FHLB stock is carried at cost and is subject to recoverability testing at least annually.

Loans held for sale: The Company designates loans held for sale as either carried at fair value or the lower of cost or fair value at loan level at origination. Loans held for sale include residential mortgage loans that have been originated for sale in the secondary market. Related gains or losses on the sale of these loans are recognized in mortgage banking income.

Loans: Loans are carried at their principal amount outstanding, net of charge-offs, unamortized fees, and direct loan origination costs. Loan origination fees received in excess of direct origination costs are deferred and accreted to interest income using the interest method in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 310 over the life of the loan. Loan balances are charged-off to the ACL when management believes that collection of principal is unlikely. Interest income on loans is accrued and recognized on the principal amount outstanding except for loans in a nonaccrual status. All classes of loans are placed on nonaccrual when management believes doubt exists as to the collectability of the interest or principal. Cash payments received on nonaccrual loans are directly applied to the principal balance. Generally, a loan may be returned to accrual status when the delinquent principal and interest is brought current in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement and certain ongoing performance criteria have been met. Loans are reported as past due when installment payments, interest payments, or maturity payments are past due based on contractual terms.

The Company classifies fair value measurements on loans as level 3 valuations in the fair value hierarchy because of their use of unobservable inputs.

Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans: Under the current expected credit loss model (“CECL”), the ACL on loans is a valuation allowance estimated at each balance sheet date that is deducted from the loans’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans.

The Company estimates the ACL on loans based on the underlying assets’ amortized cost basis, which is the amount at which the loan is originated or acquired, adjusted for applicable accretion or amortization of premium, discount, and net deferred fees or costs, collection of cash, and charge-offs. In the event that collection of principal becomes uncertain, the Company has policies in place to reverse accrued interest in a timely manner. Therefore, the Company has made a policy election to exclude accrued interest from the measurement of ACL.

Expected credit losses are reflected in the ACL through a provision for or (reversal) of credit loss expense. When the Company deems all or a portion of a financial asset to be uncollectible the appropriate amount is written off and the ACL is reduced by the same amount. The Company applies judgment to determine when a financial asset is deemed uncollectible; however, generally speaking, an asset will be considered uncollectible when management believes that collection of principal is unlikely. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the ACL when received.

The Company measures expected credit losses of financial assets on a collective (pool) basis, when the financial assets share similar risk characteristics. Depending on the nature and size of the pool of financial assets with similar risk characteristics, the Company uses either a DCF method or a weighted average remaining life method to estimate expected credit losses quantitatively. The weighted average remaining life method uses exposure at default, along with the expected credit losses adjusted for prepayments to calculate the required allowance. The Company utilizes peer historical loss data to estimate credit losses under the weighted average remaining life method. Under the DCF method, the Company utilizes complex models to obtain reasonable and supportable forecasts to calculate two predictive metrics, the probability of default (“PD”) and loss given default (“LGD”). Under the DCF method the combination of adjustments for the credit expectations PD and LGD, and timing expectations (prepayment, curtailment, and time to recovery), produces an expected cash flow stream at the instrument level. Instrument effective yield is calculated, net of the impacts of prepayment assumptions, and the instrument expected cash flows are then discounted at that effective yield to produce an instrument-level net present value of expected cash flows (“NPV”). An ACL is established for the difference between the instrument’s NPV and amortized cost basis.

In addition to the quantitative portion of the ACL derived using either the DCF or weighted average remaining life method, the Company also considers the effects of the qualitative factors in its calculation of expected losses in the loan portfolio. The qualitative factor methodology is based on quantitative metrics, but also includes a high degree of subjectivity and changes in any of the metrics could have a significant impact on our calculation of the allowance.

Loans that do not share risk characteristics with other loans in the portfolio are individually evaluated for expected credit losses and are not included in the collective evaluation. Loans are identified for individual evaluation during regular credit reviews of the portfolio. A loan is generally identified for individual evaluation when management determines that we will probably not be able to collect all amounts due according to the loan contract, including scheduled interest payments. When we identify a loan for individual evaluation, we measure expected credit losses using DCF, except when the sole remaining source of the repayment for the loan is the liquidation of the collateral. In these cases, we use the current fair value of the collateral, less selling costs, instead of DCF. The analysis of collateral dependent loans includes external appraisals or in-house evaluations on loans secured by real property, management’s assessment of the current market, recent payment history and an evaluation of other sources of repayment. The Company’s determination of which method to use is based upon several factors. The Company takes into account compliance with legal and regulatory guidelines, the amount of the loan, the estimated value of the collateral, the location and type of collateral to be valued, and how critical the timing of completion of the analysis is to the assessment of value. Those factors are balanced with the level of internal expertise, internal experience, and market information available, versus external expertise available such as qualified appraisers, brokers, auctioneers, and equipment specialists. The Company uses external appraisals to estimate fair value for projects that are not fully constructed as of the date of valuation. These projects are generally valued as if complete, with an appropriate allowance for cost of completion, including contingencies developed from external sources such as vendors, engineers, and contractors.

If we determine that the value of an individually evaluated loan is less than the recorded investment in the loan, we either recognize an ACL specific to that loan, or charge-off the deficit balance on collateral dependent loans if it is determined that such amount represents a confirmed loss. Subsequent changes in the expected credit losses for loans evaluated individually are included within the provision for credit losses in the same manner in which the expected credit loss initially was recognized or as a reduction in the provision that would otherwise be reported.

The Company’s estimate of the ACL reflects losses expected over the remaining contractual life of the assets. The contractual term does not consider extensions, renewals or modifications.

Loans guaranteed by the U.S. government ASC 326 requires credit enhancements that mitigate credit losses, such as the U.S. government guarantees, to be considered in estimating credit losses. These guarantees are considered “embedded” and, therefore, are considered when estimating credit loss on loans guaranteed by the U.S. government. Given that the loans are fully guaranteed by the U.S. government and absent any specific loss information on any of our guaranteed loans, the Company does not carry an ACL on its portion of loans guaranteed by the U.S. government.

Loan Commitments and Allowance for Credit Losses on Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures: The Company enters into various types of transactions that involve financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit issued to meet customer financing needs. We apply the same credit standards to these commitments as in all of our lending activities and include these commitments in our lending risk evaluations. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.

The Company records an ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures, unless the commitments to extend credit are unconditionally cancellable, through a charge to provision for credit loss expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. The ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures is estimated by loan segment at each balance sheet date under the current expected credit loss model using the same methodologies as portfolio loans, taking into consideration the likelihood that funding will occur, and is included in other liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

Purchased Receivables and related Allowance for Credit Losses: The Company purchases accounts receivable from its customers. The purchased receivables are carried at amortized cost, net of an ACL. Management measures expected credit losses on purchased receivables by evaluating each receivable individually. Each quarter, management reviews purchased receivable asset balances compared to assets eligible for advancement of funds in order to determine the exposure to loss for the Company. Exposure is zero when outstanding balances exceed assets eligible for advancement. Management may determine that an ACL is appropriate for individual purchased receivables based on asset specific facts and circumstances. Fees charged to the customer are earned while the balances of the purchases are outstanding, which is typically less than one year. Changes in the ACL are recorded as provision for (or reversal of) credit loss expense.

Acquired Loans and Purchased Receivables: Loans and purchased receivables acquired that are of poor credit quality and with more than an insignificant evidence of credit deterioration since their origination or original purchase are purchased credit deteriorated (“PCD”) assets. PCD assets are recorded at their purchase price plus an ACL estimated at the time of acquisition. Under this approach, there is no provision for credit losses recognized at acquisition; rather, there is a gross-up of the purchase price of the financial asset for the estimate of expected credit losses and a corresponding ACL recorded. Changes in estimates of expected credit losses after acquisition are recognized as provision for credit losses in subsequent periods. In general, interest income recognition for PCD financial assets is consistent with interest income recognition for the similar non-PCD financial asset.

Other Real Estate Owned: Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”) represents properties acquired through foreclosure or its equivalent. Prior to foreclosure, the carrying value is adjusted to the fair value, less cost to sell, of the real estate to be acquired by an adjustment to the ACL for loans. Management’s evaluation of fair value is based on appraisals or discounted cash flows of anticipated sales. After foreclosure, any subsequent reduction in the carrying value is charged against earnings. Operating expenses associated with OREO are charged to earnings in the period they are incurred. Operating expenses associated with OREO are recorded net of rental income and gain on sales associated with OREO.

Premises and Equipment: Premises and equipment, including leasehold improvements, are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense for financial reporting purposes is computed using the straight-line method based upon the shorter of the lease term or the estimated useful lives of the assets that vary according to the asset type and include; furniture and equipment ranging between three andseven years, leasehold improvements ranging betweentwo and 15 years, and buildings at 39 years. Maintenance and repairs are charged to current operations, while renewals and betterments are capitalized. Long-lived assets such as premises and equipment are reviewed for impairment at least annually or whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the remaining useful life may warrant revision, or that the carrying amount of the long-lived asset may not be fully recoverable. If impairment is determined to exist, any related impairment loss is calculated based on fair value. Impairment losses on assets to be disposed of, if any, are based on the estimated proceeds to be received, less costs of disposal.

Operating Leases: The Company leases branch locations, corporate office space, and equipment under non-cancelable leases. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The leases contain various provisions for increases in rental rates, based either on changes in the published Consumer Price Index or a predetermined escalation schedule. Substantially all of the leases provide the Company with one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term fromone toten years or more. The exercise of lease renewal options is at management's sole discretion. The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term, unless there is a transfer of title or purchase option reasonably certain of exercise. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. In addition to annual impairment reviews, management reviews right-of-use assets anytime a change in circumstances indicates the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets: Intangible assets are comprised of goodwill and other intangibles acquired in business combinations. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized. Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized to their estimated residual values over their respective useful lives, and are also reviewed for impairment. Amortization of intangible assets is included in other operating expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company performs a goodwill impairment analysis at each reporting unit on an annual basis. Additionally, the Company performs a goodwill impairment evaluation on an interim basis when events or circumstances indicate impairment potentially exists.

Low Income Housing Tax Credit Partnerships: The Company earns a return on its investments in these partnerships in the form of tax credits and deductions that flow through to it as a limited partner. The Company amortizes these investments intax expense over the period during which tax benefits are received.

Servicing Rights: MSRs and commercial servicing rights (“CSRs”) associated with loans originated and sold, where servicing is retained, are measured at fair value and changes in fair value are reported through earnings. Changes in the fair value of servicing rights occur primarily due to the collection/realization of expected cash flows, as well as changes in valuation inputs and assumptions. Under the fair value method, servicing rights are carried on the balance sheet at fair value and the changes in fair value for MSRs are reported in earnings inmortgage banking income and the changes in fair value for CSRs are reported in commercial serving revenue in other operating income in the period in which the change occurs. Fair value measurements are determined using a discounted cash flow model. In order to determine the fair value of servicing rights, the present value of net expected future cash flows is estimated. Assumptions used include market discount rates, anticipated prepayment speeds, escrow calculations, delinquency rates, and ancillary fee income net of servicing costs.

Other Assets: Other assets include purchased software and prepaid expenses. Purchased software is carried at amortized cost and is amortized using the straight-line method over its estimated useful life or the term of the agreement. Also included in other assets is the net deferred tax asset, bank owned life insurance carried at cash surrender value, net of premium charges, accrued interest receivable, taxes receivable, and rate lock derivatives.

Derivatives: The Company records all derivatives on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. The accounting for change in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate the derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting, and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Interest rate swaps that are designated as a cash flow hedge and satisfy the hedge accounting requirements involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counter-party in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. For derivatives which are designed as cash flow hedges and satisfy hedge accounting requirements, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). The fair value of the Company's derivatives is determined using DCF analysis using observable market based inputs. The Company considers all free-standing derivatives not designated in a hedging relationship as economic hedges and recognizes these derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet. These assets and liabilities are measured at fair value, and changes in fair value are recorded in earnings. By using derivatives, the Company is exposed to counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that counterparties to the derivative contracts do not perform as expected. If a counterparty fails to perform, our counterparty credit risk is equal to the amount reported as a derivative asset on our balance sheet, net of cash collateral received. We minimize counterparty credit risk through credit approvals, limits, monitoring procedures, and obtaining collateral, where appropriate. For derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty under a master netting arrangement, we do not offset fair value amounts of interest rate swaps in liability positions with interest rate swaps in asset positions. For further detail, see Note 20 of the notes to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II. Item 8 of this report.

Transfers or sales of financial assets: For transfers of entire financial assets or a participating interest in an entire financial asset recorded as sales, we recognize and initially measure at fair value all assets obtained and liabilities incurred. We record a gain or loss in other operating income for the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the assets sold. Fair values are based on quoted market prices, quoted market prices for similar assets, or if market prices are not available, then the fair value is estimated using discounted cash flow analysis with assumptions for credit losses, prepayments and discount rates that are corroborated by and verified against market observable data, where possible.

Revenue Recognition: The majority of the Company's revenues come from interest income on loans and investment securities, as well as other non-interest income including mortgage banking income, bankcard fees, purchased receivable income, and service charges on deposits. The Company recognizes income in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance for these revenue sources. The Company's revenues that are within the scope of ASC Topic 606 (“Topic 606”) are presented within other operating income and include bankcard fees, service charges on deposits, and other non-interest income including merchant services fees, commissions from sales of mutual funds and other investments, safety deposit box rental fees, bank check and other check fees, and other miscellaneous revenue streams.

The Company generates revenue from factoring services by purchasing trade receivables from customers at a discount. This revenue is included in Purchased Receivable Income on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income. Purchased receivable income represents factoring fees earned for providing financing, credit administration, and collection services. Purchased receivable income is recognized at the point in time when control of the receivable is transferred to the Company and the related services are substantially complete, which generally occurs upon purchase of the receivable.

Bankcard fees are primarily comprised of debit card income and ATM fees. Debit card income is primarily comprised of interchange fees earned whenever the Company’s debit cards are processed through card payment networks such as Visa or MasterCard. ATM fees are primarily generated when a Company cardholder uses a non-Company ATM or a non-Company cardholder uses a Company ATM. The Company’s performance obligation for bankcard fees are largely satisfied, and related revenue recognized, when the services are rendered or upon completion. Payments are typically received immediately or in the following month.

Service charges on deposit accounts consist of general service fees for monthly account maintenance, activity- or transaction-based fees, and account analysis fees (i.e., net fees earned on analyzed business and public checking accounts), and other deposit account related fees and consist of transaction-based revenue, time-based revenue (service period), item-based revenue or some other individual attribute-based revenue. Revenue is recognized when our performance obligation is completed which is generally monthly for account maintenance services or when a transaction has been completed. Payments for service charges on deposit accounts are primarily received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to customers’ accounts.

Other operating income consists of other recurring revenue streams such as merchant services income, commissions from sales of mutual funds and other investments, safety deposit box rental fees, bank check and other check fees, unrealized gains and losses on marketable securities, and other miscellaneous revenue streams. Merchant services income mainly represents fees charged to merchants to process their debit and credit card transactions, in addition to account management fees. The Company’s performance obligation for merchant services income is largely satisfied, and related revenue recognized, when the transactions have been completed. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month. The Company earns commissions from the sale of mutual funds as periodic service fees (i.e., trailers) from Elliott Cove Capital Management typically based on a percentage of net asset value. Trailer revenue is recorded over time, quarterly, as net asset value is determined. The Company also earns commission income from the sale of annuity products. The Company acts as an intermediary between the Company's customer and Elliott Cove Investment Advisors for these transactions, and commissions from annuity product sales are recorded when the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied, which is generally upon the issuance of the annuity policy. The Company does not earn trailer fees on annuity sales. Payment for commissions from sales of mutual funds and other investments and annuity sales is typically received in the following quarter. Other service charges include revenue from safety deposit box rental fees, processing wire transfers, bank check and other check fees, and other services. The Company’s performance obligations for these other revenue streams are largely satisfied, and related revenue recognized, when the services are rendered or upon completion. Payments are typically received immediately or in the following month.

Revenue within the contracts with customers is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with customers are satisfied. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods or providing services. When the amount of consideration is variable, the Company will only recognize revenue to the extent that it is probable that the cumulative amount recognized will not be subject to a significant reversal in the future. Substantially all of the Company's contracts with customers have expected durations of one year or less and payments are typically due when or as the services are rendered or shortly thereafter. When third parties are involved in providing services to customers, the Company recognizes revenue on a gross basis when it has control over those services being provided to the customer; otherwise, revenue is recognized for the net amount of any fee or commission.

Advertising: Advertising, promotion, and marketing costs are expensed as incurred. The Company reported total expenses in these areas of $3.7 million, $3.0 million, and $2.9 million for each of the years ending December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Stock Incentive Plans: The Company has stock-based employee compensation plans as more fully discussed in Note 22, Stock-Based Compensation to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II. Item 8 of this report. Compensation cost is recognized for stock options, restricted stock units, and performance stock units issued to employees based on the fair value of these awards at the date of grant. A Black Scholes model is utilized to estimate the fair value of stock options. The market price for the Company's common stock at the date of grant issued is the fair value of restricted and performance stock awards. The Company recognizes compensation expense over the vesting period of each award. The Company's recognizes forfeitures as they occur.

Income Taxes: The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income taxes are recognized for the future consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred taxes of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. Our policy is to recognize interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits in “Other operating expense" in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Foreign Currency Translation: Assets, liabilities and operations of foreign subsidiaries, which includes subsidiaries owned by SCF, are recorded based on the functional currency of each entity. The Company has determined that the functional currency of foreign subsidiaries is the local currency. The assets, liabilities and operations are translated, for consolidation purposes, from the local currency to the U.S. dollar reporting currency at period-end rates for assets and liabilities and generally at average rates for results of operations. Related translation adjustments are reported as a component of other comprehensive income, whereas gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in results of operations in other operating income.

Earnings Per Share: Earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares and dilutive common stock equivalents outstanding during the period. Stock options and restricted stock units, as described in Note 22 of the notes to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II. Item 8 of this report, are considered to be common stock equivalents. Potentially dilutive shares are excluded from the computation of earnings per share if their effect is anti-dilutive. There wereno anti-dilutive shares outstanding related to options to acquire common stock in 2025, 2024, or 2023.

Information used to calculate earnings per share was as follows:

Comprehensive Income: Comprehensive income consists of net income, net unrealized gains (losses) on securities available for sale after the tax effect, net unrealized gains (losses) on derivative and hedging activities after the tax effect, and foreign currency transaction adjustments after the tax effect.

Concentrations: A significant portion of the Company’s business is derived from operations in Alaska. As such, the Company’s growth and operations depend upon the economic conditions of Alaska. Alaska relies primarily upon the natural resources industries, particularly oil production, as well as tourism, government and U.S. military spending for their economic success. A significant majority of the unrestricted revenues of the Alaska state government are currently funded through various taxes and royalties on the oil industry. The Company’s business is and will remain sensitive to economic factors that relate to these industries and local and regional business conditions. As a result, local or regional economic downturns, or downturns that disproportionately affect one or more of the key industries in regions served by the Company, may have a more pronounced effect upon its business than they might on an institution that is less geographically concentrated. The extent of the future impact of these events on economic and business conditions cannot be predicted; however, prolonged or acute fluctuations could have a material and adverse impact upon the Company’s results of operation and financial condition.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had $697.0 million and $690.0 million, respectively, in commercial and construction loans. Additionally, the Company continues to have a concentration in large borrowing relationships. At December 31, 2025,20% of the Company’s loan portfolio is attributable to 28 large borrowing relationships. The Company has additional unfunded commitments to these borrowers of $176.5 million at December 31, 2025.

Fair Value Measurements: Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for an asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the use of inputs used in valuation methodologies. In accordance with GAAP, the Company groups its assets and liabilities measured at fair value into the following three levels:

•Level 1: Valuation is based upon quoted prices for identical instruments traded in active markets. A quoted market price in an active market provides the most reliable evidence of fair value and is used to measure fair value whenever available. A contractually binding sales price also provides reliable evidence of fair value.

•Level 2: Valuation is based upon quoted market prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation techniques for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market.

•Level 3: Valuation is generated from model-based techniques that use significant assumptions not observable in the market, or inputs that require significant management judgment or estimation, some of which may be internally developed.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting pronouncements implemented in 2025

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”). The amendments in ASU 2023-09 improve transparency of income tax disclosures related to rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures by requiring consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in rate reconciliation, and by requiring disclosure of income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. The amendments in ASU 2023-09 allow investors to better assess, in their capital allocation decisions, how an entity's worldwide operations and related tax risks and tax planning and operations opportunities affect its income tax rate and prospects for future cash flow. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and may be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 on December 31, 2025, and the adoption expands our disclosures around income taxes.

In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-02, Codification Improvements - Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements (“ASU 2024-02”). ASU 2024-02 contains amendments to the Codification that remove references to various Concepts Statements. In most instances, the references are extraneous and not required to understand or apply the guidance. In other instances, the references were used in prior Concepts Statements to provide guidance in certain topical areas. FASB Concepts Statement are nonauthoritative. Removing all references to Concepts Statements in the guidance is intended to simplify the Codification and draw a distinction between authoritative and nonauthoritative literature. ASU 2024-02 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and may be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company adopted ASU 2024-02 on January 1, 2025, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025‑05, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets (“ASU 2025‑05”). ASU 2025‑05 is intended to reduce the cost and complexity of applying the CECL model to current accounts receivable and current contract assets arising from transactions accounted for under Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The amendments introduce (i) a practical expedient available to all entities and (ii) an accounting policy election available to entities other than public business entities that also elect the practical expedient. Under the practical expedient, an entity may assume that current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change over the remaining life of current accounts receivable and current contract assets. This simplifies the estimate of expected credit losses for short‑term assets by reducing the need to incorporate detailed forward‑looking macroeconomic forecasts that stakeholders indicated were costly to develop and had limited effect on loss estimates for these assets. ASU 2025‑05 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2025, with early adoption permitted. The amendments apply only to current receivables and contract assets. The Company adopted ASU 2025-05 on December 31, 2025, and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Accounting pronouncements to be implemented in future periods

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (“ASU 2024-03”). This updated mandates that public business entities provide detailed disclosures in the notes to the financial statements, breaking down specific expense categories such as purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, and depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil- and gas-producing activities included in each relevant expense cation. The objective is to enhance transparency, enabling investors to gain a clearer understanding of the nature and impact of these expenses on the Company's financial performance. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and may be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company intends to adopt ASU 2024-03 prospectively and does not believe that the adoption will have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025‑08, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans ("ASU 2025-08"). The amendments in ASU 2025‑08 are intended to simplify and improve the accounting for acquired loans under the CECL model by expanding the use of the “gross‑up” approach currently applied only to PCD assets. Under prior generally accepted accounting principles, entities were required to distinguish between PCD and non‑PCD acquired loans, resulting in differing Day 1 accounting and concerns about complexity, comparability, and perceived double‑counting of credit losses for non‑PCD loans. ASU 2025‑08 creates a new category of “purchased seasoned loans,” defined as acquired loans—in a business combination or acquired more than 90 days after origination—other than credit cards, that meet certain criteria. These loans must now be accounted for using the gross‑up approach. This method requires an entity to recognize an allowance for expected credit losses at the acquisition date with a corresponding increase to the loan’s amortized cost basis, eliminating Day 1 credit loss expense while reducing subsequent interest income. Existing guidance for PCD assets remains unchanged. ASU 2025‑08 is effective for the Company for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026 and must be applied prospectively to loans acquired after the adoption date. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025‑08 but does not expect the adoption to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2025, FASB issued ASU 2025‑09, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting Improvements (“ASU 2025‑09”). The amendments in ASU 2025‑09 clarify and expand certain aspects of hedge accounting to better align financial reporting with the economics of an entity’s risk‑management activities. The ASU addresses stakeholder feedback following the implementation of prior hedge accounting guidance and issues arising from the global transition away from LIBOR. The amendments include targeted improvements across several areas of hedge accounting. Among the key changes, ASU 2025‑09 (i) expands the ability to aggregate forecasted transactions with similar risk exposures in cash flow hedges, (ii) introduces a model that facilitates hedge accounting for forecasted interest payments on “choose‑your‑rate” debt instruments, (iii) broadens hedge accounting for forecasted purchases and sales of nonfinancial assets, and (iv) updates guidance related to net written options used as hedging instruments. These improvements are intended to reduce complexity, increase consistency, and enhance the decision‑usefulness of hedge accounting outcomes. ASU 2025‑09 is effective for the Company for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025‑09 and does not expect the adoption to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025‑11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow‑Scope Improvements (“ASU 2025‑11”). The amendments are intended to improve the clarity and navigability of interim reporting requirements within Topic 270 by clarifying when interim reporting guidance applies, enhancing the organization of required interim disclosures, and specifying the form and content of interim financial statements. The guidance responds to stakeholder feedback that existing interim reporting requirements were difficult to navigate because of the historical origins and accumulated amendments within Topic 270. ASU 2025‑11 adds a disclosure principle requiring entities to disclose events that occur after the end of the most recent annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The amendments also introduce a comprehensive list of required interim disclosures drawn from various Codification topics and clarify the presentation requirements for interim financial statements, including condensed financial statements and accompanying footnotes. Importantly, the ASU does not change the fundamental nature of interim reporting nor expand or reduce existing disclosure requirements; rather, it improves clarity and consistency across entities that issue interim financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. ASU 2025‑11 is effective for the Company for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted, and the amendments may be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025‑11 and does not expect the adoption to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025‑12, Codification Improvements (“ASU 2025‑12”). This Update is part of the FASB’s ongoing project to address stakeholder‑identified issues in the Accounting Standards Codification. The amendments consist of technical corrections, clarifications, and other incremental improvements intended to enhance the clarity, consistency, and usability of U.S. GAAP. These Codification improvements are not expected to significantly affect current accounting practices or impose substantial costs on most entities. The amendments span a wide range of Topics and include clarifications to diluted earnings‑per‑share calculations, updates to disclosure requirements for certain lease receivables, refinements to the calculation of reference amounts for beneficial interests, clarification of permissible methods for treasury stock retirements, and guidance regarding the transfer and measurement of receivables arising from contracts with customers. Although the updates are largely non‑substantive, certain clarifications may affect how entities apply existing guidance where the prior Codification language was ambiguous or inconsistent. ASU 2025‑12 is effective for the Company for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2025‑12 and does not expect the adoption to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 -Business Combinations

On October 31, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the equity interest in SCF in a cash transaction that is valued at approximately $53.9 million. The primary reason for the acquisition was to expand the Company's presence in the specialty finance industry. SCF provides factoring, asset based lending, and alternative working capital solutions to small and medium sized enterprises in the United States, and, to a lesser extent, in Canada and the United Kingdom through its subsidiaries. SCF operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary, and is expected to complement the products currently offered by NFS, a factoring division of the Bank.

The consideration transferred or transferable to the former owners of SCF and the assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting and were recorded at their estimated fair values as of the October 31, 2024 acquisition date. The Company paid $47.9 million in cash on October 31, 2024 when the acquisition was completed. The Company had pre-existing loans to SCF which totaled $12 million. The fair value of these loans approximate their carrying value, and as a result of the acquisition, the loans were effectively settled at their carrying value, resulting in no gain or loss. The fair value of the loans were considered as part of the total purchase consideration in the transaction. Estimated fair values recorded in the transaction are subject to change for up to one year after the closing date of the acquisition. The application of the acquisition method of accounting resulted in the recognition of goodwill in the amount of $35.0 million. No other intangibles were identified. In February 2025, in accordance with the terms of the purchase agreement, the Company determined the final value of consideration transferred to the former owners of SCF. The final value of consideration transferred decreased $144,000 to $47.7 million from $47.9 million which decreased goodwill to $34.9 million.

The former owners of SCF (the “sellers”) will receive additional cash proceeds (the “earn-out payments”) of up to $6 million. The earn-out payments of $2 million per year are payable on each of the first three anniversaries of the closing date, and the first payment of $2 million was made in the fourth quarter of 2025. The purchase agreement provides for the these earn-out payments to be paid to the sellers in future periods, provided that certain principal employees of SCF, including certain of the sellers, have not been terminated for cause or terminated their employment for good reason. The earn-out payments have not been included in acquisition consideration and will be expensed when incurred as compensation expense in future periods.

A summary of the net assets acquired and the estimated fair value adjustments are presented below:

The $35.0 million of goodwill recorded in connection with the acquisition of SCF represents the excess purchase price over the estimated fair value of the net assets acquired, and resulted from the expected decrease in funding costs and, to a lesser extent, expected operational efficiencies. All of the goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

A summary of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated fair values are presented below:

The fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed approximates book value as of the acquisition date as all loans and borrowings have variable interest rates. Purchased receivables have an average life of less than 45 days. Some of the assets acquired exhibited evidence of credit deterioration at the acquisition date. These assets were designated as PCD assets in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The following table presents PCD loan and purchased receivable activity at the date of acquisition:

Based on an evaluation in accordance with Rule 3-05 and Rule 11-01(b) of Regulations S-X, the acquisition of SCF does not meet the significance thresholds requiring separate financial statement disclosure.

The operations of SCF are included in our operating results from October 31, 2024, and added revenue of $2.6 million, non-interest expense of $1.5 million, and net income of $943,000, before taxes, for the year ended December 31, 2024. SCF’s results of operations prior to the acquisition are not included in our operating results. Additionally, deal-related costs of $1.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 have been incurred and expensed in connection with the acquisition of Sallyport and recognized within professional and outside services expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The following table presents unaudited pro forma results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023 as if the acquisition of SCF had occurred on January 1, 2023. The proforma results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the results that would have been obtained had the acquisition actually occurred on January 1, 2023, primarily due to the Company's lower cost of funding as compared to SCF.

1 SCF represents results from January 1 to October 31 for 2024 and represents results from January 1 to December 31, for 2023.

2 Proforma adjustments include a provision for income taxes using the Company's statutory rate.

NOTE 3 –Cash and Due from Banks

The Company is required to maintain a $100,000 and $30,000 balance with a correspondent bank to collateralize the initial margin and the fair value exposure of one of its interest rate swaps, respectively, at December 31, 2025 and 2024.

NOTE 4 -Interest Bearing Deposits in Other Banks

All interest bearing deposits in other banks have a maturity ofone year or less. Balances at December 31 for the respective years are as follows:

NOTE 5 -Investment Securities

Marketable Equity Securities

The Company held marketable equity securities with fair values of $8.4 million and $8.7 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The gross realized and unrealized gains (losses) recognized on marketable equity securities in other operating income in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income for the periods indicated were as follows:

Debt securities

Debt securities have been classified in the financial statements as available for sale or held to maturity. The following table summarizes the amortized cost, estimated fair value, and ACL of debt securities and the corresponding amounts of gross unrealized gains and losses of available for sale securities recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and unrecognized gains and losses of held to maturity securities at the periods indicated:

Gross unrealized losses on investment securities and the fair value of the related securities, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, at December 31, 2025 and 2024, were as follows:

Management evaluates available for sale debt securities in unrealized loss positions to determine whether the impairment is due to credit-related factors or noncredit-related factors. Consideration is given to the extent to which the fair value is less than cost, the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, and the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, there weretwo andfour available for sale securities in an unrealized loss position without an ACL, respectively, that have been in a loss position for less than twelve months. There were 27 and 40 available for sale securities without an ACL with unrealized losses at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, that have been at a loss position for more than twelve months. At both December 31, 2025 and 2024, there were zero held to maturity securities in an unrealized loss position without an ACL that have been in a loss position for less than twelve months. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, there weretwo andthree held to maturity securities in an unrealized loss position without an ACL, respectively, that have been in a loss position for more than twelve months. Management does not have the intent to sell any of these securities and believes that it is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell any such securities before a recovery of cost. The fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date or repricing date or if market yields for such investments decline. Accordingly, as of December 31, 2025, management believes that the unrealized losses detailed in the previous table are due to noncredit-related factors, including changes in interest rates and other market conditions, and therefore no losses have been recognized in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, $210.3 million and $177.4 million in securities were pledged for deposits and borrowings, respectively.

The amortized cost and fair values of available for sale and held to maturity debt securities at December 31, 2025, are distributed by contractual maturity as shown below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

The proceeds and resulting gains and losses, computed using specific identification, from sales of investment securities for the years ending December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively, are as follows:

A summary of interest income for the years ending December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 on available for investment securities is as follows:

NOTE 6 -Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses

Loans Held for Sale

Loans held for sale are comprised entirely of 1-4 family residential mortgage loans as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Loans Held for Investment

The following table presents amortized cost and unpaid principal balance of loans for the periods indicated:

The difference between the amortized cost and unpaid principal balance is primarily net deferred origination fees totaling $10.2 million at December 31, 2025 and $9.2 million at December 31, 2024.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The activity in the ACL related to loans held for investment for the periods indicated is as follows:

Loans Individually Evaluated for Credit Losses

Credit Quality Information

As part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio, management utilizes a loan risk grading system called the Asset Quality Rating (“AQR”) system to assign a risk classification to each of its loans. The risk classification is a dual rating system that contemplates both probability of default and risk of loss given default. Loans are graded on a scale of 1 to 10 and, loans graded 1 – 6 are considered “pass” grade loans. Loans graded 7 or higher are considered "classified" loans. A description of the general characteristics of the AQR risk classifications are as follows:

Pass grade loans – 1 through 6: The borrower demonstrates sufficient cash flow to fund debt service, including acceptable profit margins, cash flows, liquidity and other balance sheet ratios. Historic and projected performance indicates that the borrower is able to meet obligations under most economic circumstances. The Company has competent management with an acceptable track record. The category does not include loans with undue or unwarranted credit risks that constitute identifiable weaknesses.

Classified loans:

Special Mention – 7: A "special mention" credit has weaknesses that deserve management's close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset at some future date.

Substandard – 8: A "substandard" credit is inadequately protected by the current worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful – 9: An asset classified "doubtful" has all the weaknesses inherent in one that is classified "substandard-8" with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently known facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. The loan has substandard characteristics, and available information suggests that it is unlikely that the loan will be repaid in its entirety.

Loss – 10: An asset classified "loss" is considered uncollectible and of such little value that its continuance on the books is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather that it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this basically worthless asset, even though partial recovery may be affected in the future.

The following tables present the Company's portfolio of risk-rated loans by grade and by year of origination. Management considers the guidance in ASC 310-20 when determining whether a modification, extension, or renewal of loan constitutes a current period origination. Generally, current period renewals of credit are re-underwritten at the point of renewal and considered current period originations for purposes of the table below.

Past Due Loans

The following tables present an aging of contractually past due loans as of the periods indicated:

Nonaccrual Loans

Nonaccrual loans net of government guarantees totaled $12.0 million and $7.5 million at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The following table presents loans on nonaccrual status and loans on nonaccrual status for which there was no related ACL for the periods presented:

Interest income which would have been recognized on nonaccrual loans for 2025, 2024, and 2023 amounted to $337,000, $371,000, and $499,000, respectively.

There wasno interest on nonaccrual loans reversed through interest income in 2025 and 2024, respectively. There was no interest recognized on nonaccrual loans with a principal balance during 2025 or 2024. However, the Company recognized interest income of $214,000, $241,000, and $656,000 in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively, related to interest collected on nonaccrual loans whose principal has been paid down to zero.

Loans are classified as collateral dependent when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal and interest when due, and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the sale of the collateral. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there are no collateral dependent loans for which foreclosure is probable.

Loan Modifications

The Company modifies loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty as a normal part of our business. These modifications include providing term extensions/modifications, payment modifications, interest rate modifications, or, on rare occasions, principal forgiveness. When principal forgiveness is provided, the amount of forgiveness is charged-off against the ACL. The Company may provide multiple types of concessions on one loan.

The following tables show the amortized cost basis of the loans that were both experiencing financial difficulty and modified as of the dates indicated, by class and type of modification. The percentage of the amortized cost basis of loans that were modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty as compared to the amortized cost basis of each class of financing receivable is also presented below:

The Company hasno outstanding commitments to the borrowers included in the previous table.

The following tables present the financial effect of the loan modifications presented above to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty for the years indicated:

The Company monitors the performance of loans that are modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty to understand the effectiveness of its modification efforts. The following table presents the payment performance of such loans as of the dates indicated that were modified in the last twelve months:

The following table presents the amortized cost basis of loans that had a payment default during 2025 and were modified in the twelve months prior to that default to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty:

Loans to Related Parties

Certain directors, and companies of which directors are principal owners, and executive officers have loans with the Company. Such transactions are made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral required, as those prevailing for similar transactions of unrelated parties. An analysis of the loan transactions for the years indicated follows:

The Company had $120,000 of unfunded loan commitments to these directors or their related interests on both December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Pledged Loans

At December 31, 2025, there were $771.1 million loans pledged as collateral to secure available borrowing lines and no loans pledged as collateral to secure public deposits. At December 31, 2024, $666.7 million loans were pledged as collateral to secure available borrowing lines and there were no loans pledged as collateral to secure public deposits.

NOTE 7 -Purchased Receivables

Purchased receivables are carried at their principal amount outstanding, net of an ACL, and have a maturity of less thanone year. Income on purchased receivables is accrued and recognized on the balance outstanding using an effective interest method except when management believes doubt exists as to the collectability of the income or principal. There wasone nonperforming purchased receivable with a balance of $67,000 as of December 31, 2025 for which management is not accruing income andfour nonperforming purchased receivables with a balance of $3.8 million as of December 31, 2024. However, the Company recognized nonaccrual fee income of $899,000 in 2025 related to fees collected on nonaccrual purchased receivables whose principal has been paid down to zero. There isno ACL at December 31, 2025 associated with the $67,000 nonperforming and past due purchased receivable balances. The $3.6 million ACL at December 31, 2024 is associated with $3.8 million nonperforming and past due purchased receivables as of December 31, 2024.

The following table summarizes the components of net purchased receivables at December 31, for the years indicated:

The following table sets forth information regarding changes in the ACL on purchased receivables for the periods indicated:

1 Represents a reduction in the allowance for credit losses on a purchased credit deteriorated purchased receivable acquired in 2024 in connection with the SCF acquisition. Collections received during the period presented above are contractually payable to the sellers under the purchase agreement if collected within one year of the acquisition of SCF. Accordingly, the decrease in the allowance was offset by the recognition of a liability to the sellers, and no benefit was recognized in the provision for credit losses.

NOTE 8 -Servicing Rights

Mortgage servicing rights

The following table details the activity in the Company's MSR for the year indicated:

(1)Principally reflects changes in discount rates and prepayment speed assumptions, which are primarily affected by changes in interest rates.

(2)Represents changes due to collection/realization of expected cash flows over time.

The following table details information related to our serviced mortgage loan portfolio as of the dates indicated:

The Company recognized servicing fees of $6.0 million, $4.4 million, and $3.8 million during 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively, which includes contractually specified servicing fees and ancillary fees which are included in "Mortgage banking income" as a component of other noninterest income in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income.

The following table outlines the weighted average key assumptions used in measuring the fair value of MSRs and the sensitivity of the current fair value of MSRs to immediate adverse changes in those assumptions as of the dates indicated. See Note 25 of the notes to the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II. Item 8 of this report for additional information on key assumptions for MSRs.

1 Prepayment speeds are influenced by mortgage interest rates as well as our estimation of drivers of borrower behavior.

These sensitivities in the preceding table are hypothetical and caution should be exercised when relying on this data. Changes in value based on variations in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in the assumption to the change in the value may not be linear. Also, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the value of the MSR held is calculated independently without changing any other assumptions. In reality, changes in one factor may result in changes in others, which might magnify or counteract the sensitivities.

Commercial servicing rights

CSRs have a carrying value of $2.3 million at December 31, 2025 and $2.2 million at December 31, 2024 and total commercial loans serviced for others were $296.2 million and $279.7 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Key assumptions used in measuring the fair value of CSRs as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 include an average conditional prepayment rate of 11.71% and 11.38% and a discount rate of 12.00% and 12.00%, respectively.

NOTE 9 -Other Real Estate Owned

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company held zero assets, respectively, as OREO. The following table details net operating (income) expense related to OREO for the years indicated:

NOTE 10 -Premises and Equipment

The following summarizes the components of premises and equipment at December 31 for the years indicated:

When a Network member places a deposit using IntraFi Network Deposits, that certificate of deposit or interest-bearing demand deposit account is divided into amounts under the standard FDIC insurance maximum ($250,000) and is allocated among member banks, making the large deposit eligible for FDIC insurance. In addition to customer deposit placement, the IntraFi Network Deposits also allows placement of the Bank's own investment dollars. The Company had $50.0 million in IntraFi Network Deposits certificates of deposits and $589.5 million in IntraFi Network Deposits in deposit accounts at December 31, 2025 and $49.2 million in IntraFi Network Deposits certificates of deposits and $461.1 million in IntraFi Network Deposits in deposit accounts at December 31, 2024.

NOTE 15 -Borrowings

The Company has a maximum line of credit with the FHLB approximating 45% of eligible assets, however the Company is subject to provisions under Alaska state law, which generally limit the amount of the Bank's outstanding debt to 15% of total assets or $490.6 million at December 31, 2025 and $454.1 million at December 31, 2024. FHLB advances are subject to collateral criteria that require the Company to pledge assets under a blanket pledge arrangement as collateral for its borrowings from the FHLB. Based on assets currently pledged and advances currently outstanding at December 31, 2025, the Company's available borrowing line is $433.05 million, representing approximately 13% of total assets. Additional advances of up to 45% of eligible assets, or $1.48 billion, are dependent on the availability of acceptable collateral such as marketable securities or real estate loans, although all FHLB advances are secured by a blanket pledge of the Company’s assets. The Company has outstanding FHLB advances of $12.8 million and $13.2 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which were originated to match fund low income housing projects that qualify for long-term fixed interest rates. These advances have original terms of either 18 or 20 years with 30 year amortization periods and fixed interest rates ranging from 1.23% to 3.25%.

The Federal Reserve Bank is holding $70 million of securities as collateral to secure available borrowing lines through the discount window of $69.2 million at December 31, 2025. There wereno discount window advances outstanding at December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company paid less than $1,000 in interest in 2025 and 2024 on this agreement.

Securities sold under agreements to repurchase were zero for both December 31, 2025 and 2024.

The future principal payments that are required on the Company’s borrowings as of December 31, 2025, are as follows:

The Company recognized interest expense of $1.5 million, $1.0 million, and $1,783,000 on borrowings and securities sold under repurchase agreements in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The average interest rates paid on long-term debt in the same periods was 3.76%,3.13%, and 2.93%, respectively.

NOTE 16 -Subordinated Debentures

In December of 2005, the Company formed a wholly-owned Connecticut statutory business trust subsidiary, Northrim Statutory Trust 2 (the “Trust 2”), which issued $10 million of guaranteed undivided beneficial interests in the Company’s Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures (“Trust Preferred Securities 2”). These debentures qualify as Tier 1 capital under Federal Reserve Board guidelines. All of the common securities of Trust 2 are owned by the Company. The proceeds from the issuance of the common securities and the Trust Preferred Securities 2 were used by Trust 2 to purchase $10.3 million of junior subordinated debentures of the Company. Trust 2 is not consolidated in the Company’s financial statements in accordance with GAAP; therefore, the Company has recorded its investment in Trust 2 as an other asset and the subordinated debentures as a liability. The debentures, which represent the sole asset of Trust 2, accrue and pay distributions quarterly at a variable rate of 90-day CME SOFR plus tenor spread adjustment 0.26% plus 1.37% per annum, adjusted quarterly, of the stated liquidation value of $1,000 per capital security as of December 31, 2024. The interest rate on these debentures was 5.35% at December 31, 2025 compared to 5.99% at December 31, 2024. The interest cost to the Company on these debentures was $612,000, $717,000, and $693,000 in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The Company has entered into contractual arrangements which, taken collectively, fully and unconditionally guarantee payment of: (i) accrued and unpaid distributions required to be paid on the Trust Preferred Securities 2; (ii) the redemption price with respect to any Trust Preferred Securities 2 called for redemption by Trust 2; and (iii) payments due upon a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding up or liquidation of Trust 2. The Trust Preferred Securities 2 are mandatorily redeemable upon maturity of the debentures on March 15, 2036, or upon earlier redemption as provided in the indenture. The Company has the right to redeem the debentures purchased by Trust 2 in whole or in part, on or after March 15, 2011. As specified in the indenture, if the debentures are redeemed prior to maturity, the redemption price will be the principal amount and any accrued but unpaid interest.

In November of 2025, the Company issued and sold $60.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 6.875% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2035 (the “Subordinated Notes”). The Subordinated Notes were issued by the Company to the Purchasers at a price equal to 100% of their face amount. The Subordinated Notes mature on December 1, 2035 and bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.875% per year, from November 26, 2025 to, but excluding, December 1, 2030 or the date of earlier redemption, payable semi-annually in arrears. From and including December 1, 2030 to, but excluding, the maturity date or earlier redemption date, the interest rate will reset quarterly at a variable rate equal to the then current three-month SOFR, plus 3.48% per annum, payable quarterly in arrears. As provided in the Subordinated Notes, the interest rate on the Subordinated Notes during the applicable floating rate period may be determined based on a rate other than three-month term SOFR. The interest cost to the Company on these debentures was $401,000 in 2025. The Company incurred debt issuance costs of $1.4 million which will amortize through December 1, 2035. The amortization expense amounted to $14,000 in 2025. Prior to December 1, 2030, the Company may redeem the Subordinated Notes, in whole but not in part, only under certain limited circumstances set forth in the indenture governing the Subordinated Notes. On or after December 1, 2030, the Company may redeem the Subordinated Notes, in whole or in part, at its option, on any interest payment date. Any redemption by the Company would be at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Subordinated Notes being redeemed, together with any accrued and unpaid interest on the Subordinated Notes being redeemed to, but excluding, the date of redemption. The Subordinated Notes are not subject to redemption at the option of the holder. Principal and interest on the Subordinated Notes are subject to acceleration only in limited circumstances in the case of certain bankruptcy and insolvency-related events with respect to the Company. The Subordinated Notes are unsecured, subordinated obligations of the Company, are not obligations of, and are not guaranteed by, any subsidiary of the Company, and rank junior in right of payment to the Company’s current and future senior indebtedness. The Subordinated Notes are intended to qualify as Tier 2 capital of the Company for regulatory capital purposes.

NOTE 17 –Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss)

The following table shows changes in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) by component for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023:

NOTE 18 -Employee Benefit Plans

Employees of the Company are eligible to participate in the Company's 401(k) plan immediately upon date of hire. Employees may elect to have a portion of their salary contributed to the 401(k) plan in accordance with Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”). The Company provides for a mandatory $1.00 match for each $1.00 contributed by employees of the Bank up to 6% of the employee’s eligible salary. The Company provides for a mandatory $1.00 match for each $1.00 contributed by employees of RML up to 3% of the employee’s eligible salary. The Bank or RML may increase the matching contribution at the discretion of the Board of Directors. The Company expensed $2.9 million, $2.1 million, and $2.0 million, in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively, for 401(k) contributions and included this expense in “Salaries and other personnel expense” in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The Bank has a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) for executive officers of the Bank whose retirement benefits under the 401(k) plan have been limited under provisions of the Code. While contributions to this plan were halted in 2025, the Bank still has liabilities related to the SERP. Contributions to this plan totaled zero, $397,000, and $350,000, in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. These expenses are included in “Salaries and other personnel expense” in the Consolidated Statements of Income. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the balance of the accrued liability for this plan was included in “Other liabilities” and totaled $2.6 million and $2.5 million, respectively. The Bank redirected employer contributions from the SERP in 2025 to the individual participant accounts under the Northrim non-qualified deferred compensation plan. Existing balances in the SERP will be paid out accordingly. Contributions in 2025 for this plan, which formerly would have been made to the SERP plan, were $256,000 in 2025 and are also included in “Salaries and other personnel expense” in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

RML has a non-qualified deferred compensation plan (“DCP”), under which RML has agreed to make payment to certain key executives and loan officers, based on contributions made by RML to the plan. Contributions and earnings made to the participant accounts for the DCP are vested overten years. The Company recorded expenses of $374,000, $380,000, and $333,000 in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. RML's recorded obligation under the DCP amounted to $939,000 and $2.1 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and was included in “Other liabilities”.

The Bank also has a non-qualified deferred compensation plan in which certain former executive officers participate. The Bank's net liability under this plan is dependent upon market gains and losses on assets held in the plan. The Bank recognized an increase in its liability of $59,000 in 2025, a increase in its liability of $24,000 in 2024, and a decrease in its liability of $10,000 in 2023. These changes are included in “Salaries and other personnel expense” in the Consolidated Statements of Income. At both December 31, 2025 and 2024, the balance of the accrued liability for this plan was included in “Other liabilities” and totaled $1.8 million.

All employees of the Bank employed on the last day of the calendar year or retired during the year are eligible and will participate in the Profit Sharing Plan. The aggregate amount to be paid to employees under the Profit Sharing Plan is determined using Company-wide performance goals that are established by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. If the performance goals are met for the year, profit sharing for the period is calculated based on a formula that is also approved by the Compensation Committee each year. The Compensation Committee has complete discretion to designate an employee as ineligible for profit sharing, or to adjust the amount of profit share payments by individual employee or in aggregate. Profit share expense was $6.3 million, $5.2 million, and $2.5 million for 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

At both December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had accrued $2.0 million, related to employee's paid time off benefit. The balance of the accrued liability for this plan was included in “Other liabilities”.

SCF employees are currently offered benefits under the Professional Employer Organization (“PEO”), TriNet. Under the PEO arrangement, SCF employees are eligible to participate in a safe harbor retirement plan that matches 100% up to 3% of compensation, and then anything over 3% compensation is matched at 50% up to 5% of eligible compensation. SCF employees are intended to align to Bank's benefits package in 2026, subject to the termination of the PEO arrangement.

NOTE 19 -Commitments and Contingencies

Employee benefit plans: The Company is self-insured for medical, dental, and vision plan benefits provided to employees. The Company has obtained stop-loss insurance to limit total medical claims in anyone year to $250,000 per covered individual. The Company has established a liability for outstanding incurred but unreported claims. While management uses what it believes are pertinent factors in estimating the liability, it is subject to change due to claim experience, type of claims, and rising medical costs.

Legal proceedings: The Company from time to time may be involved with disputes, claims, and litigation related to the conduct of its banking business. In the opinion of management, the resolution of these matters will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.

Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk: In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into various types of transactions that involve financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. These instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit and are not reflected in the accompanying balance sheets. These transactions may involve to varying degrees credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount, if any, recognized in the balance sheets. Certain commitments are collateralized. We apply the same credit standards to these commitments as in all of our lending activities and include these commitments in our lending risk evaluations. Management does not anticipate any loss as a result of these commitments.

The Company’s off-balance sheet credit risk exposure is the contractual amount of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. The Company applies the same credit standards to these contracts as it uses in its lending process. The following table presents the off-balance sheet commitments as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to customers. These commitments have specified interest rates and generally have fixed expiration dates but may be terminated by the Company if certain conditions of the contract are violated. Our exposure to credit loss under commitments to extend credit is represented by the amount of these commitments. Although currently subject to draw down, many of the commitments do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Collateral held relating to these commitments varies, but generally includes real estate, inventory, accounts receivable, and equipment.

Mortgage loans sold to investors may be sold with servicing rights released, for which the Company makes only standard legal representations and warranties as to meeting certain underwriting and collateral documentation standards. In the past two years, the Company has had to repurchaseten loans due to deficiencies in underwriting or loan documentation and has not realized significant losses related to these loans. Management believes that any liabilities that may result from such recourse provisions are not significant.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Credit risk arises in these transactions from the possibility that a customer may not be able to repay the Company upon default of performance. Collateral held for standby letters of credit is based on an individual evaluation of each customer’s creditworthiness.

Total unfunded commitments were $661.1 million and $529.5 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company does not expect that all of these commitments are likely to be fully drawn upon at any one time. The Company has an ACL related to these commitments and letters of credit that is recorded in "Other liabilities" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The ACL for unfunded commitments was $2.7 million and $2.3 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Capital Expenditures and Commitments: At December 31, 2025, the Company has $1.5 million capital commitments related to new branch construction and renovations. There were no other material changes outside of the ordinary course of business to any of our material contractual obligations during 2025.

NOTE 20 -Derivatives

Derivatives related to community banking activities

The Company enters into commercial loan interest rate swaps with commercial banking customers which are offset with a corresponding swap agreement with a third party financial institution (“counterparty”). The Company has agreements with its counterparties that contain provisions that provide that if the Company fails to maintain its status as a "well-capitalized" institution, then the counterparty could terminate the derivative positions and the Company would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements. These agreements also require that the Company and the counterparty collateralize any fair value shortfalls that exceed $250,000 with eligible collateral, which includes cash and securities backed with the full faith and credit of the federal government. Similarly, the Company could be required to settle its obligations under the agreement if specific regulatory events occur, such as if the Company were issued a prompt corrective action directive or a cease and desist order, or if certain regulatory ratios fall below specified levels. The Company pledged $596,000 and $579,000 in available for sale securities to collateralize fair value shortfalls on interest rate swap agreements as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The Company had interest rate swaps related to commercial loans with an aggregate notional amount of $358.6 million and $309.0 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. At December 31, 2025, the notional amount of interest rate swaps is made up of 27 variable to fixed rate swaps to commercial loan customers totaling $179.3 million, and 27 fixed to variable rate swap with a counterparty totaling $179.3 million. Changes in fair value from these 54 interest rate swaps offset each other in both 2025 and 2024. The Company recognized $472,000, $540,000, and $61,000 in fee income related to interest rate swaps in 2025 and 2024, and 2023, respectively. Interest rate swap income is recorded in other operating income on the Consolidated Statements of Income. None of these interest rate swaps are designated as hedging instruments.

The Company has an interest rate swap to hedge the variability in cash flows arising out of its junior subordinated debentures, which is floating rate debt, by swapping the cash flows with an interest rate swap which receives floating and pays fixed. The Company has designated this interest rate swap as a hedging instrument. The interest rate swap effectively fixes the Company's interest payments on the $10.0 million of junior subordinated debentures held under Trust 2 at 3.72% through its maturity date.The floating rate that the dealer pays is equal to the three month CMESOFR plus tenor spread adjustment 0.26% plus 1.37%, which reprices quarterly on the payment date. This rate was 5.35% as of December 31, 2025 and 5.99% as of December 31, 2024. The Company pledged $130,000 in cash to collateralize initial margin and fair value exposure of our counterparty on this interest rate swap as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Changes in the fair value of this interest rate swap are reported in other comprehensive income. The unrealized gain, net of tax on this interest rate swap was $1.0 million as of December 31, 2025 and the unrealized gain, net of tax on this interest rate swap was $1.3 million as of December 31, 2024.

Derivatives swaps related to home mortgage lending activities

The Company also uses derivatives to hedge the risk of changes in the fair values of interest rate lock commitments. The Company enters into commitments to originate residential mortgage loans at specific rates; the value of these commitments are detailed in the table below as “interest rate lock commitments”. In addition, the Company hedges the interest rate risk associated with its residential mortgage loan commitments, which are referred to as "retail interest rate contracts" in the table below. Market risk with respect to commitments to originate loans arises from changes in the value of contractual positions due to changes in interest rates. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, RML had commitments to originate mortgage loans held for sale totaling $45.7 million and $32.3 million, respectively. Changes in the value of RML's interest rate derivatives are recorded in mortgage banking income on the Consolidated Statements of Income. None of these home mortgage lending derivatives are designated as hedging instruments.

The following table presents the fair value of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments as of the dates noted:

The following table presents the net gains (losses) of derivatives not designated as hedging instruments as of the dates noted:

Our derivative transactions with counterparties under International Swaps and Derivatives Association master agreements include “right of set-off” provisions. “Right of set-off” provisions are legally enforceable rights to offset recognized amounts and there may be an intention to settle such amounts on a net basis. We do not offset such financial instruments for financial reporting purposes.

The following table summarizes the derivatives that have a right of offset as of December 31, 2025 and 2024:

NOTE 21 -Common Stock

Quarterly cash dividends were paid aggregating to $14.5 million, $13.8 million, and $13.6 million, or $0.640 per share, $0.615 per share, and $0.600 per share, in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. On January 26, 2026, the Company announced that its Board of Directors declared a $0.16 per share cash dividend payable on March 13, 2026, to shareholders of record on March 5, 2026. Federal and State regulations place certain limitations on the payment of dividends by the Company.

NOTE 22 -Stock-Based Compensation

The Company adopted the 2025 Stock Incentive Plan (“2025 Plan”) following shareholder approval of the 2025 Plan at the 2025 Annual Meeting. Subsequent to the adoption of the 2025 Plan, no additional grants may be issued under the prior plans. The 2025 Plan provides for grants of up to 1,300,000 shares, which includes any shares subject to stock awards under the Company's previous stock incentive plans.

Stock Options: Under the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan and previous plans, certain key employees have been granted the option to purchase set amounts of common stock at the market price on the day the option was granted. Optionees, at their own discretion, may pay cash to cover the cost of exercise, may cover the cost of exercise through the exchange at the then fair value of already owned shares of the Company’s stock, or they may cover the cost of exercise through net settlement of a portion of the stock options exercised in satisfaction of the exercise price and applicable tax withholding requirements. The two latter options are referred to as cashless stock option exercises. Options are granted for a 10-year period and vest on a pro-rata basis over the initial three years from the grant date.

The Company measures the fair value of each stock option at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model using assumptions noted in the following table. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the price of the Company’s common stock. The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and stock option forfeiture rates within the valuation model. The expected term of options granted is determined based on historical experience with similar options and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. The expected dividend yield is based on dividend trends and the market value of the Company’s common stock at the time of grant. The risk-free rate for periods within the expected life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.

There wereno stock options granted in 2025, 2024, or 2023.

The following table summarizes stock option activity during 2025:

At December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, there were 260,472,333,568, and 403,320 options exercisable, with weighted average exercise prices of $9.02, $8.87, and $8.70, respectively.

The aggregate intrinsic value of the stock options is the total pretax intrinsic value (i.e., the difference between the Company’s closing stock price on December 31, 2025 and the exercise price, times the number of shares) that would have been received by the option holders had all the option holders exercised their options on December 31, 2025. This amount changes based on the fair value of the Company’s stock. The total intrinsic value of options outstanding and exercisable as of December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 was $4.6 million, $3.5 million, and $2.3 million, respectively. The total intrinsic value of options exercised for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 was $1.1 million, $628,000, and $355,000, respectively.

As noted above, the Company allows stock options to be exercised through cash or cashless transactions. In each of 2025, 2024, and 2023 the Company receivedno cash for cash stock option exercises. In 2025, 2024, and 2023 the Company net settled $609,000, $699,000, and $445,000 respectively, for cashless stock option exercises. The Company withheld $822,000, $851,000, and $534,000 to pay for stock option exercises or income taxes that resulted from the exercise of stock options in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized zero, $33,000, and $74,000, respectively, in stock option compensation expense. As of December 31, 2025, there wasno unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested options.

Restricted Stock Units: Under the 2025 Plan, the Company grants restricted stock units to certain key employees periodically. Recipients of restricted stock units do not pay any cash consideration to the Company for the shares and receive all dividends with respect to such shares when the shares vest. Restricted stock units cliff vest at the end of athree-year time period.

The following table summarizes restricted stock unit activity during 2025:

The total intrinsic value of restricted stock units vested for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 was $7,000, $1.4 million, and $1.1 million, respectively.

For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized $993,000, $670,000, and $751,000, respectively, in restricted stock unit compensation expense. As of December 31, 2025, there was approximately $1.6 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested units, which is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average vesting period of 2.7 years.

Performance Stock Units: Under the 2025 Plan, the Company grants performance stock units to certain key employees periodically. Recipients of performance stock units do not pay any cash consideration to the Company for the shares and receive all dividends with respect to such shares when the shares vest. Performance stock units cliff vest at the end of athree-year time period if the performance criteria are met.

The following table summarizes performance stock unit activity during 2025:

The Company recognized $741,000 and $209,000 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 in performance stock unit compensation expense and $111,000 for the year ended December 31, 2023. As of December 31, 2025, there was approximately $668,000 of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested units, which is expected to be recognized over the weighted-average vesting period of 1.9 years.

NOTE 23 -Regulatory Matters

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on a company's financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company’s and the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory practices. The Company’s and the Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgment by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total capital, Tier 1 capital, and common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets (as defined in the regulations).

The tables below illustrate the capital requirements for the Company and the Bank and the actual capital ratios for each entity that exceed these requirements. The dividends that the Bank pays to the Company are limited to the extent necessary for the Bank to meet the regulatory requirements of a “well-capitalized” bank. Some capital ratios for the Company exceed those for the Bank primarily because the $10 million trust preferred securities offerings that the Company completed in the fourth quarter of 2005 and the $60 million in Subordinated Notes completed in the fourth quarter of 2025 are included in the Company’s capital for regulatory purposes although they are accounted for as a liability in its financial statements. The trust preferred securities and Subordinated Notes are not included in the Bank's capital ratios.

As of the most recent notification from its regulatory agencies, the Bank was categorized as "well-capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s regulatory capital category. Management believes, as of December 31, 2025, that the Company and Bank meets all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

NOTE 24 -Income Taxes

Components of the provision for income taxes for the periods indicated are as follows:

The actual expense for 2025, 2024, and 2023, differs from the “expected” tax expense (computed by applying the U.S. Federal Statutory Tax Rate of 21% for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023) as follows:

1 The state and local jurisdictions that contribute to the majority (greater than 50%) of the tax effect in this category is Alaska.

The components of the net deferred tax asset for the periods indicated are as follows:

A valuation allowance is provided when it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred tax asset will not be realized. The primary source of recovery of the deferred tax asset will be future taxable income. Management believes it is more likely than not that the results of future operations will generate sufficient taxable income to realize the deferred tax asset. The deferred tax asset is included in "Other assets" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company hadno unrecognized tax benefits.

The tax years subject to examination by federal taxing authorities and by the State of Alaska are the years ending December 31, 2025, 2024, 2023, and 2022.

The amount of cash income taxes paid by the Company for the periods indicated were as follows:

NOTE 25 -Fair Value Measurements

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

Investment securities available for sale and marketable equity securities: Fair values are based on quoted market prices, where available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of comparable instruments.

Servicing rights: MSR and CSR are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These assets are classified as Level 3 as quoted prices are not available. In order to determine the fair value of MSR and CSR, the present value of net expected future cash flows is estimated. Assumptions used include market discount rates, anticipated prepayment speeds, escrow calculations, delinquency rates, and ancillary fee income net of servicing costs.

Derivative instruments: The fair value of the interest rate lock commitments are estimated using quoted or published market prices for similar instruments, adjusted for factors such as pull-through rate assumptions based on historical information, where appropriate. The pull-through rate assumptions are considered Level 3 valuation inputs and are significant to the interest rate lock commitment valuation; as such, the interest rate lock commitment derivatives are classified as Level 3. Interest rate contracts are valued in a model, which uses as its basis a discounted cash flow technique incorporating credit valuation adjustments to reflect nonperformance risk in the measurement of fair value. Although the Company has determined that the majority of inputs used to value its interest rate derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by itself and its counterparties. However, as of December 31, 2025, the Company has assessed the significance of the impact of these adjustments on the overall valuation of its interest rate positions and has determined that they are not significant to the overall valuation of its interest rate derivatives. As a result, the Company has classified its interest rate derivative valuations in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit: The fair value of commitments is estimated using the fees currently charged to enter into similar agreements, taking into account the remaining terms of the agreements and the present creditworthiness of the counterparties. For fixed-rate loan commitments, fair value also considers the difference between current levels of interest rates and the committed rates. The fair value of letters of credit is based on fees currently charged for similar agreements or on the estimated cost to terminate them or otherwise settle the obligation with the counterparties at the reporting date.

Assets Subject to Nonrecurring Adjustment to Fair Value:

The Company is also required to measure certain assets such as equity method investments, goodwill, intangible assets, loans held for sale, impaired loans, and OREO at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. Any nonrecurring adjustments to fair value usually result from the writedown of individual assets.

The Company uses either in-house evaluations or external appraisals to estimate the fair value of OREO and loans individually evaluated for credit losses as of each reporting date. In-house appraisals are considered Level 3 inputs and external appraisals are considered Level 2 inputs. The Company’s determination of which method to use is based upon several factors. The Company takes into account compliance with legal and regulatory guidelines, the amount of the loan, the size of the assets, the location and type of property to be valued and how critical the timing of completion of the analysis is to the assessment of value. Those factors are balanced with the level of internal expertise, internal experience and market information available, versus external expertise available such as qualified appraisers, brokers, auctioneers and equipment specialists.

Limitations

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information and information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time the Company’s entire holdings of a particular financial instrument. Because no market exists for a significant portion of the Company’s financial instruments, fair value estimates are based on judgments regarding future expected loss experience, current economic conditions, risk characteristics of various financial instruments, and other factors. These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision. Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

Estimated fair values as of the periods indicated are as follows:

The following table sets forth the balances as of the periods indicated of assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The following table provides a reconciliation of the assets and liabilities measured at fair value using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) on a recurring basis during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

As of and for the years ending December 31, 2025 and 2024, except for certain assets as shown in the following table, no impairment or valuation adjustment was recognized for assets recognized at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. For loans individually measured for credit losses, the Company classifies fair value measurements using observable inputs, such as external appraisals, as Level 2 valuations in the fair value hierarchy, and unobservable inputs, such as in-house evaluations, as Level 3 valuations in the fair value hierarchy.

The following table presents the (gains) losses resulting from nonrecurring fair value adjustments for the periods ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively:

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value Using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

The following table provides a description of the valuation technique, unobservable input, and qualitative information about the unobservable inputs for the Company’s assets and liabilities classified as Level 3 and measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis at December 31, 2025 and 2024:

NOTE 26 -Segment Information

The Company's operations are managed along three reportable operating segments: Community Banking, Home Mortgage Lending, and Specialty Finance. The Company reevaluated our reportable operating segments in 2024 concurrent with the acquisition of SCF, which resulted in the addition of the Specialty Finance segment. The Community Banking segment's principal business focus is the offering of loan and deposit products to business and consumer customers in its primary market areas. As of December 31, 2025, the Community Banking segment operated 20 branches throughout Alaska. The Home Mortgage Lending segment's principal business focus is the origination and sale of mortgage loans for 1-4 family residential properties, mortgage loan servicing for a portion of mortgage loans sold, and investment in certain 1-4 family residential mortgage loans on our balance sheet. The Specialty Finance segment's principal business focus is factoring, asset based lending and alternative working capital solutions to small and medium sized enterprises, and includes SCF and Northrim Funding Services, which was previously reported in the Community Banking segment prior to the acquisition of SCF.

The Company's reportable segments are determined by the Chief Financial Officer and the Chief Executive Officer, whom collectively are the designated chief operating decision maker. The reportable segments are determined based on information provided about the Company's products and services offered. They are also distinguished by the level of information provided to the chief operating decision maker, who uses the information to review performance of various components of the business, which are then aggregated if operating performance, products and services, and customers are similar. The chief operating decision maker evaluates the financial performance of the Company's business components such as by evaluating revenue streams, significant expenses, and budget to actual results in assessing the performance of the Company's segments and in the determination of allocating resources. Segment pretax net income or loss is used to assess the performance of the community banking segment by monitoring the margin between interest income and interest expense and the efficiency ratio specific to the segment. Segment pretax net income or loss is used to assess the performance of the home mortgage lending segment by monitoring the premium received on loan sales, the margin between interest income and interest expense, and the profitability of home mortgage servicing activities. Segment pretax net income or loss is used to assess the performance of the specialty finance segment by monitoring the yield of purchased receivable fees.

Accounting policies for segments are the same as those described in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Interest expense included in Part II. Item 8 of this report is allocated to each segment based on average cash utilized to fund the operations of the segment and the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the consolidated entity. Indirect salary expense for activities such as general management, accounting and finance, human resources, compliance, information technology, risk management, and internal audit are allocated based on the average percentage of employee time spent working in each specific segment.

Financial information for the Company's reportable segments and the reconciliation to the consolidated financial results for the periods indicated is shown in the following tables:

Community banking: OREO (income) expense, net of rental income and gains on sale, director fees, operational charge offs net of recoveries, loan collection and collateral costs, and other miscellaneous operating costs related to community banking activities.

Home mortgage lending: OREO (income) expense, net of rental income and gains on sale related home mortgage loans, director fees related at Residential Mortgage, loan collection and collateral costs related to home mortgage loans, and other miscellaneous operating costs related to home mortgage lending activities.
