Current report
Equity securities increased by $575,000 at June 30, 2026, compared to December 31, 2025, primarily due to the Company’s participation in Visa Inc.’s exchange offer described in Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited) included in Item 1 of this Report. The Company received Visa Class C common stock with a fair value of approximately $826,000 and subsequently sold 211 shares during the quarter, resulting in a net increase in equity securities at period end. The Company also received 550 shares of Visa Class B-3 common stock in the exchange; however, no carrying value was assigned to the Class B-3 shares, and therefore they are not included in the Company’s equity securities balance at June 30, 2026.
Current report
Other changes in the Company’s consolidated assets are primarily related to premises and equipment, which increased by $2.0 million from $14.7 million at December 31, 2025 to $16.7 million at June 30, 2026 related to construction expenses for a new branch in Mount Pleasant, North Carolina, which will replace the currently leased branch location. Other assets increased by $628,000 during the six months ended June 30, 2026, primarily due to a $392,000 increase in supplemental executive retirement plan (“SERP”) account balances, driven by annual Company contributions and favorable market performance. In addition, the Company’s investment in a Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”) increased by $266,000.
Current report
The Company places significant emphasis on diversification of revenue sources rather than relying solely upon interest income. Total noninterest income increased by $961,000 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the same period in 2025. The increase in noninterest income was primarily attributable to a gain of $827,000 recognized in connection with Visa Inc.’s exchange offer. During the second quarter of 2026, the Company exchanged its Visa Class B-1 common stock for Class B-3 common stock and Class C common stock. Because the exchanged Class B-1 common stock had no carrying value, the Company recognized the fair value of the Class C common stock received, along with cash received in lieu of fractional shares, as a gain. The Visa Class B-3 common stock received in the exchange represents a continuation of the Company’s restricted ownership interest and, therefore, no carrying value was assigned to the Class B-3 shares received. The Company also sold 211 shares of Visa Class C common stock received in the exchange during the quarter. The Visa-related transactions were nonrecurring in nature and favorably impacted current-period earnings. The remaining Visa Class C common stock is carried at fair value, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in earnings as part of noninterest income. Also contributing to the increase in total noninterest income, growth in assets under management (“AUM”) within the wealth management division resulted in a $120,000 increase in other service fees and commissions.

Current report
Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2026 increased by $1.5 million compared to the same period in 2025. Salaries and benefits, the largest component of noninterest expense, increased by $724,000 due to higher wages and benefit costs and increased commissions related to higher mortgage production during the first half of 2026. Marketing and donations expense increased by $343,000 during the first half of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to larger donations being made earlier in the year. Management expects overall giving for 2026 to remain consistent with the Company’s customary level of support.

Other changes in the Company’s consolidated assets are primarily related to deferred tax assets, which increased by $471,000 from $6.8 million at December 31, 2025 to $7.3 million at March 31, 2026 as a result of the decline in fair value of the available for sale securities portfolio. Premises and equipment increased by $907,000 from $14.7 million as of December 31, 2025 to $15.6 million at March 31, 2026 related to construction expenses for a new branch in Mount Pleasant, North Carolina, which will replace the currently leased branch location. Mortgage banking derivatives increased by $357,000 during the first three months of 2026, primarily related to a $232,000 increase in the value of TBAs. The value of IRLCs appreciated $167,000 during the three-month period ended March 31, 2026 as the notional amount of the mortgage pipeline increased $21.8 million.

Current wording
The Company places significant emphasis on diversification of revenue sources rather than relying solely upon interest income. Total noninterest income increased by $1.5 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2026, as compared to the same period in 2025. The increase in noninterest income was primarily attributable to a gain of $827,000 recognized in connection with Visa Inc.’s exchange offer. During the second quarter of 2026, the Company exchanged its Visa Class B-1 common stock for Class B-3 common stock and Class C common stock. Because the exchanged Class B-1 common stock had no carrying value, the Company recognized the fair value of the Class C common stock received, along with cash received in lieu of fractional shares, as a gain. The Visa Class B-3 common stock received in the exchange represents a continuation of the Company’s restricted ownership interest and, therefore, no carrying value was assigned to the Class B-3 shares received. The Company also sold 211 shares of Visa Class C common stock received in the exchange during the quarter. The Visa-related transactions were nonrecurring in nature and favorably impacted current-period earnings. The remaining Visa Class C common stock is carried at fair value, with subsequent changes in fair value recognized in earnings as part of noninterest income. The gain on sale of securities increased $186,000 related to the sale of available for sale securities during 2026, and growth in assets under management (“AUM”) within the wealth management division resulted in a $193,000 increase in other service fees and commissions.
