Loan Quality Indicators

As part of the on-going monitoring of the quality of our loans portfolio, we utilize an internal loan grading system to identify credit risk and assign an appropriate grade (from 1 to 8) for each loan in our portfolio. Third-party loan reviews are conducted annually on a sample basis. Additional adjustments are made when determined to be necessary. The loan grade definitions are as follows:

Pass and Pass-Watch: Pass loans, grades (1-4), are in compliance with the Bank’s credit policy and regulatory requirements and do not exhibit any potential or defined weaknesses as defined under “Special Mention”, “Substandard” or “Doubtful.” This category is the strongest level of the Bank’s loan grading system. It consists of all performing loans with no identified credit weaknesses. It includes cash and stock/security secured loans or other investment grade loans. Pass-Watch loans, grade (4), require enhanced attention due to financial or other circumstances facing the borrowers, which may adversely affect future financial performance.

Special Mention: A Special Mention loan, grade (5), has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If not corrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment of the debt and result in a Substandard classification. Loans that have significant actual, not potential, weaknesses are considered more severely classified.

Substandard: A Substandard loan, grade (6), has a well-defined weakness that jeopardizes the liquidation of the debt. A loan graded Substandard is not protected by the sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower, or of the value and type of collateral pledged. With a Substandard loan, there is a distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the weaknesses or deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful: A Doubtful loan, grade (7), is one that has critical weaknesses that would make the collection or liquidation of the full amount due improbable. However, there may be pending events which may work to strengthen the loan, and therefore the amount or timing of a possible loss cannot be determined at the current time.

Loss: A loan classified as Loss, grade (8), is considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as active bank assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the loan has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this asset even though partial recovery may be possible in the future. Loans classified as Loss will be charged off in a timely manner.

Under regulatory guidance, loans graded special mention or worse are considered criticized loans, and loans graded substandard or worse are considered classified loans.

On August 20, 2021, the Company issued $110.0 million of Fixed-to-Floating Subordinated Notes (“2031 Notes”) with a maturity date of September 1, 2031. The 2031 Notes have an initial fixed interest rate of 3.75% per annum, payable semiannually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, up to but excluding September 1, 2026. From and including September 1, 2026 and thereafter, the 2031 Notes will bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to the Three-Month Term SOFR plus 310 basis points, payable quarterly in arrears on March 1, June 1, September 1 and December 1 of each year. If the then current three-month term SOFR rate is less than zero, the three-month SOFR will be deemed to be zero. Debt issuance cost was $2.1 million, which is being amortized through the 2031 Notes’ maturity date. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the balance of the 2031 Notes included in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet, net of issuance cost, was$108.8 million and$108.7 million, respectively.

The $8.3 million discount is being amortized to interest expense through the debentures’ maturity date of March 15, 2036. A trust was formed in 2005 which issued $26.0 million of Trust Preferred Securities (“TPS”) at a 6.26% fixed rate for the first five years and a variable rate ofthree-month LIBOR plus 140 basis points thereafter and invested the proceeds in the Subordinated Debentures. Beginning September 15, 2023, the variable rate on the TPS changed to three-month SOFR plus 166 basis points, representing the credit spread of 140 basis points and a 26 basis point adjustment to convert three-month LIBOR to three-month SOFR.

The rate on the TPS at March 31, 2026 was 5.34%. The Company may redeem the Subordinated Debentures at an earlier date if certain conditions are met.

Note 9 — Earnings Per Share

Earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated on both a basic and a diluted basis. Basic EPS excludes dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted EPS reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock, or resulted from the issuance of common stock that then shared in earnings. Both basic and diluted EPS exclude common shares in treasury. For diluted EPS, the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding was diluted only by unvested performance stock units (“PSUs”) under the treasury method for the three month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Unvested restricted stock awards contain rights to non-forfeitable dividends and are therefore considered participating securities prior to vesting. As a result, they have been included in the earnings allocation in computing basic and diluted EPS under the two-class method.

The following table is a reconciliation of the components used to derive basic and diluted EPS for the periods indicated:

(1)

Per share amounts may not be able to be recalculated using net income and weighted-average shares presented above due to rounding.

There were no options outstanding during the three months ended March 31, 2026. On a weighted-average basis, options to purchase 3,000 shares of common stock were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2025 because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. Options with an exercise price greater than the average market price of the common shares are considered anti-dilutive. There wereno anti-dilutive unvested PSUs outstanding for the three months ended March 31, 2026 or 2025.

During the three months ended March 31, 2026,57,754 PSUs were awarded to executive officers from the 2021 Equity Compensation Plan, with a fair value of $1.5 million on the grant date of March 13, 2026. These units have a three-year cliff vesting period and include dividend equivalent rights. During thethree months ended March 31, 2025,52,526 PSUs were awarded to executive officers from the 2021 Equity Compensation Plan, with a fair value of $1.2 million on the grant date of March 26, 2025. These units also have a three-year cliff vesting period and include dividend equivalent rights. Total PSUs outstanding as of March 31, 2026 were 197,417 with an aggregate grant fair value of $3.8 million. Total PSUs outstanding as of March 31, 2025 were 194,820 with an aggregate grant fair value of $3.6 million.

Note 10 — Regulatory Matters

Federal bank regulatory agencies require bank holding companies and banks to maintain a minimum ratio of qualifying total capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0% and a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 6.0%. In addition to the risk-based guidelines, federal bank regulatory agencies require bank holding companies and banks to maintain a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to average assets, referred to as the leverage ratio, of 4.0%.

In order for banks to be considered “well capitalized,” federal bank regulatory agencies require a minimum ratio of qualifying total capital to risk-weighted assets of 10.0% and a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0%. In addition to the risk-based guidelines, federal bank regulatory agencies require depository institutions to maintain a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to average assets, referred to as the leverage ratio, of 5.0%.

At March 31, 2026, the Bank’s capital ratios exceeded the minimum requirements for the Bank to be considered “well capitalized” and the Company exceeded all of its applicable minimum regulatory capital ratio requirements.

A capital conservation buffer of 2.5% must be met to avoid limitations on the ability of the Bank and the Company to pay dividends, repurchase shares or pay discretionary bonuses. The Bank's capital conservation buffer was 6.45% and 6.25% and the Company’s capital conservation buffer was 6.52% and 6.37% as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

The capital ratios of Hanmi Financial and the Bank as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were as follows:
