Policies with respect to the methodology used to determine the allowance for credit losses is a critical accounting policy and estimate because of its importance to presentation of the Company's financial condition and results of operations and high level of subjectivity.

Previous report

The allowance for credit losses is established as probable incurred losses are estimated to have occurred through a provision for credit losses charged to earnings. Credit losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. If our loss rate factor was to increase 10 basis points, our reserve would increase by approximately $2.5 million. Likewise, if our loss rate factor was to decrease 10 basis points, our reserve would decrease by approximately $2.5 million.

Previous wording

Banking regulations have established guidelines relating to the amount of construction and land mortgage loans and investor- owned commercial real estate mortgage loans of 100% and 300% of total risk-based capital, respectively. Should a bank’s ratios be in excess of these guidelines, banking regulations generally require an increased level of monitoring in these lending areas by bank management. The Bank’s policy is to operate within the 200% guideline for construction and land mortgage loans and up to 450% for investor-owned commercial real estate mortgage loans. Both ratios are calculated by dividing certain types of loan balances for each of the two categories by the Bank’s total risk-based capital. At June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Bank’s construction and land mortgage loans as a percentage of total risk-based capital was 169.4% and 145.0%, respectively. Investor-owned commercial real estate mortgage loans as a percentage of total risk-based capital was 366.0% and 341.7% as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Management believes that it has established the appropriate level of controls to monitor the Bank’s lending in these areas.
