Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors, and Stockholders

Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of MVB Financial Corp. and Subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework: (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 12, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.

Basis for Opinion

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s consolidated financial statements based on our audits.

We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical Audit Matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current-period audit of the consolidated financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans

As described in Notes 1 and 3 to the consolidated financial statements the Company’s allowance for credit losses on loans (“ACL-Loans”) was $21.8 million as of December 31, 2025. The Company determines the current expected credit losses using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, related to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Adjustments to modeled loss estimates may be made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency level, or term, as well as for changes in environmental conditions, such as changes in economic conditions, property values or other relevant factors. The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually analyzed using either collateral-based or cash flow-based valuation methodology. The general component covers all loans that are not individually analyzed. These loans are measured on a collective basis and are pooled with other loans that share similar characteristics. Management has determined there to be several different portfolio segments sharing similar risk characteristics within the loan portfolio. Factors considered in this process include general loan terms, collateral, and availability of historical data to support the analysis, with the initial segmentation based on call report loan codes.

The ACL-Loans is calculated for each segment primarily using a discounted cash flow methodology at the loan level, with loss rates, prepayment assumptions and curtailment assumptions driven by each loan’s collateral type.

Certain qualitative factors are evaluated to determine additional inherent risks in the loan portfolio, which are not necessarily reflected in the loss forecasting models. These factors are then added to the forecasted allocation percentages to get the adjusted factor to be applied to the pooled loans on a weighted basis.

We identified the Company’s estimate of the qualitative factor adjustments applied in the calculation of the ACL-Loans as a critical audit matter. The principal considerations for our determination included the high degree of judgment and subjectivity related to management’s determination of the qualitative factor assumptions used in the calculation of the ACL-Loans. Due to the limited nature of observable data supporting the qualitative factor allocations, a high degree of auditor effort and significant auditor judgment is required.

The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:

lEvaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of key controls relating to the Company’s ACL-Loans, including controls over the determination of the application of qualitative factor adjustments and the precision of management’s review and approval of the resulting estimate, and testing of the model’s performance.
lAssessed the reasonableness of each relevant qualitative factor adjustment, including evaluating management’s judgments as to which factors impacted the qualitative adjustments for each loan pool.
lEvaluated and tested the reasonableness and relevance of data utilized in the relevant qualitative factor adjustments, including considering the data’s completeness and accuracy and testing the mathematical accuracy of the calculations.
lUtilized the assistance of the firm’s internal specialists to test the mathematical operation of the model.
lAnalyzed the total qualitative factor adjustment applied to each loan pool, in comparison to changes in the Company’s quantitatively driven expected credit losses and loan pools and evaluated the appropriateness and level of the total qualitative factor adjustment applied in the overall ACL-Loans.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Board of Directors and Stockholders

Opinion on the Internal Control over Financial Reporting

We have audited MVB Financial Corp. and Subsidiaries’ (the “Company”) internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework: (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework: (2013) issued by COSO.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and our report dated March 12, 2026 expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

Basis for Opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit.

We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definitions and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of reliable consolidated financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Fintech Banking

The Company provides innovative strategies to independent banking and corporate clients throughout the United States. The Company's dedicated Fintech team specializes in providing banking services to corporate Fintech clients, primarily focusing on operational risk management and compliance. Managing banking relationships with clients in the gaming, payments and banking-as-a-service industries is complex, from an operational and regulatory perspective. Due to this complexity, a limited number of banking institutions serve these industries, which can result in a lack of quality focus on these entities, providing the Company with an expanded pool of potential customers. When serviced safely and efficiently, the Company believes these industries provide a source of stable, lower-cost deposits and noninterest, fee-based income. The Company thoroughly analyzes each industry in which its customers operate, as well as any new products or services provided, from an operational and regulatory perspective.

Professional Services

Paladin Fraud

Paladin Fraud, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Bank, provides an extensive and customizable suite of fraud prevention services for merchants, credit agencies, Fintech companies and other vendors to help clients and partners defend against threats.

Trabian

Trabian builds digital products and web and mobile applications for forward-thinking community banks, credit unions, digital banks and Fintech companies. Consistent with the Bank's mission to pursue technology to accelerate community finance, Trabian has created technology platforms that have been instrumental to the success of many of today’s leading Fintech companies.

As of December 31, 2024, the Bank owned an 80.8% interest in Trabian. In December 2024, the Board of Directors and Finance Committee approved a plan to sell the Bank's controlling interest in Trabian, and as such, Trabian's assets and liabilities were classified as held-for-sale on the consolidated balance sheet as December 31, 2024. In January 2025, the Company entered into a stock repurchase agreement with Trabian in which Trabian repurchased all the shares held by the Company. As a result of the transaction, the Company no longer consolidates Trabian in its financial statements. Refer to Note 24 – Acquisitions and Divestitures.

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements are consolidated to include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, including the Bank and the Bank’s subsidiaries. In the Company's opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of its financial statements for interim periods in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) as presented through the Financial Accounting Statement Board's ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") and with rules and interpretive guidance of the Security and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidated financial statements.

Wholly-owned investments or investments in which the Company has a controlling financial interest, whether majority owned or in certain circumstances a minority interest, are required to be consolidated into its financial statements. The Company evaluates investments in entities on an ongoing basis to determine the need to consolidate.

As of December 31, 2024, the Bank owned an 80.8% controlling interest in Trabian and consolidated 100% of Trabian within the consolidated financial statements. The remaining interests of Trabian were accounted for separately as noncontrolling interest within the Company's consolidated financial statements. Noncontrolling interest represented the portion of ownership and profit or loss that is attributable to the minority owners of this entity.

Unconsolidated investments where the Company has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of the respective investee are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Those investments that are not consolidated or accounted for using the equity method of accounting are accounted for under cost or fair value accounting. For investments accounted for under the equity method, the Company records its investment in non-consolidated affiliates and the portion of income or loss in equity in earnings of non-consolidated affiliates. The Company periodically evaluates these investments for impairment. As of December 31, 2025, the Company holds three equity method investments. Refer to Note 5 – Equity Method Investments for further information.

Preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires it to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are based upon the best available information and actual results could differ from those estimates. An estimate that is particularly significant to the consolidated financial statements relates to the determination of the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”).

In certain instances, amounts reported in prior periods’ consolidated financial statements may be reclassified to conform to the current presentation. At December 31, 2025, we elected to reclassify certain securities from investment securities available-for-sale to accrued interest receivable and other assets. This reclassification is reflected on the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 and within the tables as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 in Note 2 – Investment Securities, Note 17 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments and Note 18 – Fair Value Measurements. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, we elected to reclassify the balance of software costs to a separate line item included in noninterest expenses titled software costs. These costs were previously included in the line item included in noninterest expenses titled travel, entertainment, dues and subscriptions. In the statements of cash flows for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the stock-based compensation related to equity method investments was reclassified into other assets. In addition, the Company made a revision to correct an immaterial error in the estimated fair value of subordinated debt as of December 31, 2024 in Note 17 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments.

The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and/or disclosure through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents include cash on hand, noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing deposits with banks. Interest-bearing deposits with original maturities of 90 days or less are considered cash equivalents. Net cash flows are reported in the consolidated statement of cash flows for loans, deposits and short-term borrowing transactions. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 there wasno restricted cash.

Investment Securities

Investment securities at the time of purchase are classified as one of the following:

Available-for-Sale Securities - Includes debt securities that will be held for indefinite periods of time. These securities may be sold in response to changes in market interest or prepayment rates, needs for liquidity and changes in the availability of and yield of alternative investments. Such securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported as a separate component of stockholders’ equity, net of estimated income tax effect. The income tax effect is released when the securities are sold.

The amortized cost of investment in debt securities is adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts, computed by a method that results in a level yield. Gains and losses on the sale of investment securities are computed on the basis of specific identification of the adjusted cost of each security.

Equity Securities - Includes equity securities that are adjusted to fair value on a monthly basis, with the change in value recorded in income, as well as equity securities without readily determinable fair values. The Company has elected to measure the equity securities without readily determinable fair values at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes for underlying transactions for identical or similar investments of new issues.

The Company's investment portfolio includes securities that are in an unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2025. The Company evaluates available-for-sale debt securities to determine whether the unrealized loss is due to credit-related factors or non-credit-related factors. When determining the ACL on securities, the Company considers such factors as adverse conditions specifically related to a certain security or to specific conditions in an industry or geographic area, the time frame securities have been in an unrealized loss position, its ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for anticipated recovery in value, whether or not the security has been downgraded by a rating agency and whether or not the financial condition of the security issuer has severely deteriorated.

When debt securities are in an unrealized loss position, the Company first assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell, the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income. Debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria are evaluated to determine whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that an ACL exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an ACL is recorded for the credit loss, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an ACL is recognized in other comprehensive income. Changes in the allowance are recorded as provision for, or reversal of, credit loss expense. Losses are charged against the ACL when management believes an available-for-sale security is confirmed to be uncollectible or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met. Securities are charged-off against the ACL or in the absence of any ACL, written down through income when deemed uncollectible by management or when either of the aforementioned criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met.

The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) of Pittsburgh, and as such, is required to maintain a minimum investment in stock of the FHLB that varies with the level of advances outstanding with the FHLB. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Bank holds $2.1 million and $2.0 million of stock, respectively, which is included in accrued interest receivable and other assets. The stock is bought from and sold to the FHLB based upon its $100 per share par value. The stock does not have a readily determinable fair value and as such is classified as restricted stock, carried at cost and evaluated by management for impairment. The stock’s value is determined by the ultimate recoverability of the par value rather than by recognizing temporary declines. The determination of whether the par value will ultimately be recovered is influenced by criteria such as the following: (i) a significant decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount and the length of time this situation has persisted; (ii) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance; (iii) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on the customer base of the FHLB; and (iv) the liquidity position of the FHLB. The Company evaluated the stock and concluded that the stock was not impaired for the periods presented herein.

The Company considered that the FHLB’s regulatory capital ratios have improved in the most recent quarters, no issues of liquidity are evident, new shares of FHLB stock continue to trade at the $100 per share par value and the FHLB has repurchased shares of excess capital stock from its members during 2025 and 2024.

Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company's methodology for determining the ACL is based on the requirements of ASC Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("ASC 326"). Loans are stated at amortized cost basis, reduced by an ACL. Loans are considered non-accrual when scheduled principal or interest payments are 90 days past due, unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection. Interest income on loans is recognized on an accrual basis. The ACL is maintained at a level deemed adequate to absorb forecasted losses over the remaining life of each loan within the portfolio. The Company consistently applies a quarterly loan review process to continually evaluate loans for changes in credit risk. This process serves as the primary means by which the Company evaluates the adequacy of the ACL, and is based upon periodic review of the collectability of loans in light of historical experience, the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, adverse situations that may affect the borrower’s ability to repay, estimated value of any underlying collateral and prevailing economic conditions. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

The allowance consists of specific and general components. The specific component relates to loans that are individually analyzed using either collateral based or cash flow based valuation methodology. The general component covers all loans that are not individually analyzed. These loans are measured on a collective basis and are pooled with other loans that share similar characteristics. The Company has determined there to be several different portfolio segments sharing similar risk characteristics within the loan portfolio. Factors considered in this process include general loan terms, collateral and availability of historical data to support the analysis, with the initial segmentation based on call report loan codes.

The ACL is calculated for each segment using a discounted cash flow methodology at the loan level, with loss rates, prepayment assumptions and curtailment assumptions driven by each loan’s collateral type. The consumer loan segment uses a remaining life methodology using straight-line amortization over the remaining life of the portfolio, due to unique characteristics of this pool.

Through a loss driver analysis, a forecasting model that correlates specific economic factors with credit quality of each loan segment was developed. Peer bank data was identified and used in this process, as the Company did not have adequate quarterly loan data to analyze over the look-back period to 2007. After analyzing both historical peer loan data and various economic factors over the same look-back period, two economic variables, national GDP and national unemployment rate, were identified as showing the highest correlation to the performance of the loans within each of the pooled segments. Within each loan segment forecast, these two economic variables are forecasted based on expected trends over a 12-month period. This quarterly average is then maintained for the life of the loan segment. These variables are used to produce an estimated probability of default for each quarterly period and, through a proprietary model, also calculate a loss given default factor to estimate overall losses. Benchmark studies are prepared for prepayment and curtailment rate estimates for each loan segment, as well as recovery lag estimates. With all these factors combined, a forecasted allocation rate is produced for each loan segment.

Certain qualitative factors are evaluated to determine additional inherent risks in the loan portfolio, which are not necessarily reflected in the loss forecasting models. These factors are then added to the forecasted allocation percentages to get the adjusted factor to be applied to the pooled loans on a weighted basis. The following qualitative factors are analyzed:

lLending policies and procedures
lNature and volume of the portfolio
lExperience and ability of lending management and staff
lVolume and severity of problem credits
lQuality of the loan review system
lValue of the underlying collateral
lConcentrations of credit and changes in the levels of such concentrations
lEconomic and business conditions & consumer sentiment
lOther external factors

The Company analyzes its loan portfolio each quarter to determine the appropriateness of its ACL.

A loan that has deteriorated and requires additional collection efforts by the Bank could warrant non-accrual status. A thorough review is presented to the Chief Credit Officer and/or the Special Assets Review Committee (“SARC”), as required with respect to any loan which is in a collection process and to make a determination as to whether the loan should be placed on non-accrual status. The placement of loans on non-accrual status is subject to applicable regulatory restrictions and guidelines. Generally, loans should be placed in non-accrual status when the loan reaches 90 days past due, when it becomes likely the borrower cannot or will not make scheduled principal or interest payments, when full repayment of principal and interest is not expected or when the loan displays potential loss characteristics. Normally, all accrued interest is reversed against interest income when a loan is placed in non-accrual status, unless the Company believes it is likely the accrued interest will be collected. Any payments subsequently received are applied to principal. To remove a loan from non-accrual status, all principal and interest due must be paid up to date and the Bank is reasonably sure of future satisfactory payment performance. Usually, this requires a six-month recent history of payments due. Removal of a loan from non-accrual status requires the approval of the Chief Credit Officer and/or SARC.

Loans are moved to individual analysis when, based on current information and events, the loan no longer exhibits similar risk characteristics as its pool and the Company analyzes the loan individually on a collateral or cash flow basis. Once the determination has been made that a loan is to be individually analyzed, the amount of potential credit loss is measured using one of two valuation methods: (i) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate; or (ii) the fair value of the collateral less selling costs. The method is selected on a loan-by-loan basis, with management primarily utilizing the fair value of collateral method. The evaluation of the need and amount of a specific allocation of the allowance and whether a loan is be removed from individual analysis status is made on a quarterly basis.

The Company determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Once identified, the Bank’s ongoing communications with the borrower allow evaluation of the significance of the payment delays and the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower. When the Bank determines that foreclosure is probable or when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty at the reporting date and repayment is expected to be substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, expected credit losses are based on the fair value of the collateral at the reporting date, adjusted for selling costs as appropriate.

To estimate the liability for off-balance sheet credit exposures, management analyzes the portfolios of unfunded commitments based on the same segmentation used for the ACL calculation. The estimated funding rate for each segment was derived from a funding rate study created by a third-party vendor, which analyzed funding of various loan types over time to develop industry benchmarks at the call report code level. Once the estimated future advances were calculated, the allocation rate applicable to that portfolio segment was applied in the same manner as those used for the ACL calculation. The resulting estimated loss allocations were totaled to determine the liability for unfunded commitments related to these loans, which management considers necessary to anticipate potential losses on those commitments that have a reasonable probability of funding.

The Company defers loan origination and commitment fees and direct loan origination costs and the net amount is amortized as an adjustment of the related loan’s yield.

Loans Held-for-Sale

Loans originated or purchased with the intent to sell are designated as held-for-sale. Loans held-for-sale are carried at fair value, which is determined using quoted secondary market prices or investor commitments when possible. If no such quoted price exists, the fair value of a loan is determined using quoted prices for a similar asset or assets, adjusted for the specific attributes of that loan, which would be used by other market participants. Loans are occasionally transferred between the held-for-sale and held-for-investment classifications based on management’s intent and ability to hold or sell loan, which may be impacted by secondary market conditions, loan credit quality or other factors.

Premises and Equipment

Premises and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation, while land is carried at cost. Depreciation expense is computed by the straight-line-method based on the estimated useful lives of assets, which range from seven to 40 years for buildings, three to 10 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment, three years for software and lesser of useful life or lease term for leasehold improvements.

Software Development

Software that the Company develops for internal use may be capitalized when costs are incurred after the preliminary project stage has ended and the application development stage begins. The application development stage includes designing, coding, installing and testing the software. Once the software has been implemented, costs for training and maintenance are expensed as incurred. Capitalized internal use software development costs are included in premises and equipment in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

Bank-Owned Life Insurance

Bank-owned life insurance represents life insurance on the lives of certain of the Company's employees who have provided positive consent allowing it to be the beneficiary of such policies. These policies are recorded at their cash surrender value or the amount that can be realized upon surrender of the policy. Income from these policies is not subject to income taxes and is recorded as noninterest income.

Equity Method Investments

Investments in companies in which the Company has significant influence over the operating and financing decisions are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Determining if the Company has significant influence requires judgment based on the facts and circumstances of each investment including level of ownership, legal structure and other qualitative factors which impact its ability to influence the investee's operations, and the Company reviews the facts and circumstances each reporting period to determine if it still has significant influence. Equity method investments are initially recorded at cost, including costs to acquire the investment. At the time of investment, the Company may make a one-time election to record its proportionate share of earnings of the investee on a lag of no more than three months. This election may be made on an investment by investment basis. The Company reviews equity method investments for impairment if there are events or changes in circumstances which indicate the carrying amount of the investment might not be recoverable.

Intangible Assets and Goodwill

Goodwill is the purchase premium after adjusting for the fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized, but is reviewed for potential impairment on an annual basis, or when events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment, at the related reporting unit level. The goodwill impairment test involves comparing the fair value of the reporting unit with its carrying value, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying value, goodwill of the reporting unit is considered not impaired; however, if the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge must be recorded. An impairment loss recognized cannot exceed the amount of goodwill assigned to a reporting unit. An impairment loss establishes a new basis in the goodwill and subsequent reversals of goodwill impairment losses are not permitted under applicable accounting guidance.

For intangible assets subject to amortization, the recoverability test is performed when a triggering event occurs and an impairment loss is recognized if the carrying value of the intangible asset exceeds fair value and is not recoverable. The carrying value of the intangible asset is considered not recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset. Intangible assets deemed to have indefinite useful lives are not subject to amortization. An impairment loss is recognized if the carrying value of the intangible asset with an indefinite life exceeds its fair value.

Derivative Instruments

Interest Rate Swaps

The Company entered into interest rate swap agreements to facilitate the risk management strategies of a small number of commercial banking clients. The Company mitigates this risk by entering into equal and offsetting interest rate swap agreements with highly rated third-party financial institutions. The interest rate swap agreements are free-standing derivatives and are recorded at fair value on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. Fair value changes are recorded in noninterest income in the Company's consolidated statements of income.

Fair Value Hedges

The Company uses interest rate swaps, designated as fair value hedges, to mitigate exposure to changes in the fair value of certain fixed-rate loans and available-for-sale securities attributable to changes in benchmark interest rates. The Company applies the portfolio layer method hedge accounting approach, which allows the Company to designate a specified portion (layer) of closed portfolios of prepayable financial assets as the hedged item. Under the portfolio layer method, the hedged items are designated as a hedged layer of closed portfolios of financial loans and municipal bonds that are anticipated to remain outstanding for the designated hedged periods. Changes in fair value of the interest rate swaps and changes in the fair value of the hedged loan and security portfolios attributable to changes in the hedged risk are both recognized in current period earnings as adjustments to interest income. The effective portion of the hedge relationship offsets in earnings, with any hedge ineffectiveness also recognized in interest income in the current period.

Embedded Derivatives

The Company enters into various contracts through the normal course of business and occasionally a contract may include terms and conditions that create an embedded derivative. An embedded derivative may occur even though the purpose of the contract is not intended to be a derivative contract. Components of a contract should be assessed to determine if they meet the definition of a derivative. If it does, the Company must then assess whether the embedded derivative is clearly and closely related to its host instrument. If the derivative is not clearly and closely related to the host contract, the embedded derivative must be separated from the host instrument and accounted for as a separate derivative.

Servicing Assets

Servicing assets are recorded when the Bank originates and sells loans and retains the servicing on those loans. On a monthly basis, the Company tracks the amount of loans that are sold with servicing retained. The Company determines the servicing rights fair value, which is then recorded as an asset and amortized over the period of estimated net servicing revenues. The servicing assets are evaluated for impairment quarterly. Servicing loans for others generally consists of collecting payments from borrowers, maintaining escrow accounts, remitting payments to third-party investors and, when necessary, foreclosure processing. Serviced loans are not included on the consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the value of servicing assets was $1.1 million and $1.4 million, respectively, which is included in accrued interest receivable and other assets in the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

The Company has the ability to sell the guaranteed portion of loans originated through the SBA's 7(a) program. All SBA loan sales are executed on a servicing retained basis. The Company is required to retain a minimum of 10% of the principal balance in accordance with SBA regulations. Any gain on sale recognized as income is the sum of the premium on the guaranteed portion of the loan and the fair value of the servicing assets recognized, less the discount recorded on the unguaranteed portion of the loan that is retained. The remaining unguaranteed portion of the loan is presented net of the discount, which is recognized as interest income over the underlying loan's remaining term, using the effective interest method.

Foreclosed Assets Held for Resale

Foreclosed assets held for resale acquired in satisfaction of mortgage obligations and in foreclosure proceedings are recorded at fair value, less estimated selling costs at the time of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis, with any valuation adjustments charged to the ACL. In subsequent periods, foreclosed assets are recorded at the lower of cost or fair value, less any costs to sell. Costs relating to improvement of the property are capitalized, while holding costs of the property are charged to other loan origination and maintenance expense in the period incurred. Subsequent declines in fair value and gains or losses on sale are recorded in other noninterest expense. Foreclosed assets held for resale are included in accrued interest receivable and other assets in the consolidated balance sheet.

Fair Value Measurements

Accounting standards require that the Company adopt fair value measurement for financial assets and financial liabilities. This enhanced guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities applies whenever other standards require or permit assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. This guidance does not expand the use of fair value in any new circumstances.

The following summarizes the methods and significant assumptions the Company use in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments.

Level I:Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reported date.
Level II:Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reported date. The nature of these assets and liabilities include items for which quoted prices are available, but traded less frequently, and items that are fair valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed.
Level III:Assets and liabilities that have little to no pricing observability as of the reported date. These items do not have two-way markets and are measured using management’s best estimate of fair value, where the inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.

Transfers of assets and liabilities between levels within the fair value hierarchy are recognized when an event or change in circumstances occurs.

Revenue Recognition

The Company records revenue from contracts with customers in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”). Under ASC 606, the Company must identify the contract with a customer, identify the performance obligations in the contract, determine the transaction price, allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

The Company's primary sources of revenue are derived from interest and fees earned on loans, investment securities and other financial instruments, which are not within the scope of ASC 606. The Company has evaluated the nature of its contracts with customers and determined that its revenue from contracts with customers is appropriately disaggregated in its consolidated statement of income. The Company generally fully satisfies its performance obligations on its contracts with customers as services are rendered and the transaction prices are typically fixed within each contract, charged either on a periodic basis or based on activity. Because performance obligations are satisfied as services are rendered and the transaction prices are fixed, there is little judgment involved in the Company applying ASC 606 that significantly affects the determination of the amount and timing of revenue from contracts with customers. Contract liabilities, which primarily relate to consulting income contracts, are included in accrued interest payable and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.

The following table summarizes the value of contract liabilities at December 31, 2025 and 2024:

(Dollars in thousands)20252024
Balance, beginning of period$317$718
Revenue recognized(317)(401)
Balance, end of period$—$317

Payment Card and Service Charge Income

Payment card and service charge income are comprised of service charges on accounts and interchange and debit card transaction fees. Service charges on accounts consist of account analysis fees, monthly service fees, check orders and other account related fees. The Company's performance obligation for account analysis fees and monthly service fees is generally satisfied and the related revenue recognized over the period in which the service is provided. Check orders and other account related fees are largely transaction based, and therefore the Company's performance obligation is satisfied and related revenue recognized at a point in time. Payment for service charges on accounts is primarily received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to customers’ accounts.

Interchange and debit card transaction fees are primarily comprised of interchange fees earned whenever the Bank’s debit and credit cards are processed through card payment networks. The Bank’s performance obligation for debit card and interchange income is generally satisfied, and the related revenue recognized, on a transaction basis. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month. The Company also enters into interchange arrangements with minimum commitment fees. Minimum commitment fees are recognized ratably, until such time that minimum commitment fees are exceeded or expected to be exceeded.

Compliance and Consulting Income

Compliance and consulting income is primarily comprised revenue generated by Paladin Fraud, and formerly Trabian. Paladin Fraud provides an extensive and customizable suite of fraud prevention services for merchants, credit agencies, Fintech companies and other vendors to help clients and partners defend against threats. Trabian provided consulting for the development of online and mobile banking platforms and digital products for Fintech companies. Related contracts are accounted for after they have been approved by all parties to the arrangement, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. The services promised are then evaluated in each contract at inception to determine whether the contract should be accounted for as having one or more performance obligations. Paladin Fraud and Trabian's services included in the Company's contracts are distinct from one another. The transaction price for each contract is determined based upon the consideration expected to be received for the distinct services being provided under the contract. Revenue is recognized as performance obligations are satisfied and the customer obtains control of the goods or services provided. In determining when performance obligations are satisfied, factors considered include contract terms, payment terms and whether there is an alternative future use of the product or service. Consulting engagements may vary in length and scope, but will generally include the review and/or preparation of regulatory filings, business plans, financial models and other risk management services to customers within financial industries. Revenue from consulting services is recognized on a pro rata basis based upon actual labor hours completed as compared to budgeted labor hours for the deliverable.

Other Operating Income

Other operating income is primarily comprised of automatic teller machine ("ATM") fees, wire transfer fees, travelers check fees, revenue streams such as safe deposit box rental fees and other miscellaneous service charges. ATM fees, wire transfer fees and travelers check fees are primarily generated when a Bank’s cardholder uses a non-Bank ATM or a non-Bank cardholder uses a Bank ATM. Safe deposit box rental fees are charged to the customer on an annual basis and recognized upon receipt of payment. The Bank determined that as rentals and renewals occur fairly consistently over time, revenue is recognized on a basis consistent with the duration of the performance obligation. Other service charges include revenue from processing wire transfers, bill pay service, cashier’s checks and other services. The Bank’s performance obligations for fees and other service charges are largely satisfied, and related revenue recognized, when the services are rendered. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month. The Bank’s performance obligation for the gains and losses on sales of other real estate owned is satisfied, and the related revenue recognized, after each sale of other real estate owned is closed.

Stock-Based Compensation

Stock-based compensation cost is recognized for stock options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”), including time- and performance-based RSUs, 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. Compensation expense is recognized over the requisite service period, generally defined as the vesting period. For awards with graded vesting, compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur rather than estimating expected forfeitures. When an award is forfeited, previously recognized compensation expense is reversed in the period of the forfeiture.

Comprehensive Income

Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, minimum pension liability and investment hedges, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the consolidated balance sheets.

Such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income.

Income Taxes

The amount reflected as income taxes represents federal and state income taxes on financial statement income. Certain items of income and expense, primarily the provision for credit losses, allowance for losses on foreclosed assets held for resale, depreciation and accretion of discounts on investment securities are reported in different accounting periods for income tax purposes. The Company and the Bank file a consolidated federal income tax return. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are computed based on the difference between the financial statement basis and income tax bases of assets and liabilities using the enacted marginal tax rates. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the net deferred tax asset or liability from period to period. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the result of timing differences in recognition of revenue and expense for financial statement and income tax purposes. No deferred income tax valuation allowance is provided as the Company believes it is more likely than not that realization of the deferred income tax asset will occur in the future.

The Company prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. Benefits from tax positions should be recognized in the financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authority that would have full knowledge of all relevant information. A tax position that meets the more likely than not recognition threshold is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. Tax positions that previously failed to meet the more likely than not recognition threshold should be recognized in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is met. Previously recognized tax positions that no longer meet the more likely than not recognition threshold should be reversed in the first subsequent financial reporting period in which that threshold is no longer met. There is currentlyno liability for uncertain tax positions andno known unrecognized tax benefits. With limited exception, the Company's federal and state income tax returns for taxable years through 2020 have been closed for purposes of examination by the federal and state taxing jurisdictions.

Operating Segments

An operating segment is defined as a component of an enterprise that engages in business activities that generates revenue and incurs expense, and the operating results of which are reviewed by the chief operating decision maker in the determination of resource allocation and performance. While the Company's chief operating decision makers ("CODMs") monitor the revenue streams of its various products and services, operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a company-wide basis. The Company has identified three reportable segments: CoRe Banking, Mortgage Banking and Financial Holding Company.

Transfers of Financial Assets

Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when: (i) the assets have been isolated from us, (ii) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets and (iii) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.

Investment securities with a carrying value of $162.4 million and $247.4 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, were pledged to secure public funds, repurchase agreements and potential borrowings at the Federal Reserve discount window.

The Company's investment portfolio includes securities that are in an unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2025. The Company evaluates available-for-sale debt securities to determine whether the unrealized loss is due to credit-related factors or non-credit-related factors. When determining the ACL on securities, the Company considers such factors as adverse conditions specifically related to a certain security or to specific conditions in an industry or geographic area, its ability to hold the security for a period of time sufficient to allow for anticipated recovery in value, whether or not the security has been downgraded by a rating agency and whether or not the financial condition of the security issuer has severely deteriorated.

The following table summarizes the activity in the ACL related to available-for-sale debt securities during the twelve months ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Although the available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position would result in a pretax loss of $18.9 million if sold at December 31, 2025, the Company has no intent to sell the applicable securities at such fair values, and maintain that it has the ability to hold these securities until all amortized cost basis has been recovered. It is more likely than not that the Company will not, for liquidity purposes, sell any securities at a loss. Declines in the fair values of these securities can be attributed to general market conditions, which reflect the prospect for the economy as a whole, rather than credit-related conditions. Therefore, the Company hasno ACL as of December 31, 2025.

The following tables show the number and amount of available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position for which an ACL has not been recorded as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, aggregated by investment category and length of time that the individual securities have been in a continuous loss position:

The loss on sale of available-for-sale securities for the year ended December 31, 2025 was primarily driven by a strategic repositioning of the Company's securities portfolio during the third quarter of 2025, which resulted in a net loss of approximately $7.6 million.

Equity Securities

Equity securities totaling $50.6 million and $42.6 million at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, primarily consist of investments in private entities within the Fintech industry and these investments may not be as liquid as the Company's investments in other types of securities. The $8.0 million increase in the equity securities balance as of December 31, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024 was driven by $5.0 million of new investments and $3.7 million of net holding gains on equity securities, partially offset by sales of equity securities of $0.7 million. At December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, equity securities without readily determinable fair values were carried at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes for underlying transactions for identical or similar investments of new issues and totaled $43.1 million and $37.6 million, respectively. At December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, equity securities recorded at net asset value totaled $7.5 million and $5.0 million, respectively.

Commercial loans include shared national credits, which are participations in loans or loan commitments of at least $100.0 million that are shared by three or more banks. As of December 31, 2025, the Bank hadfive shared national credit relationships with an aggregate commitment for $104.8 million and an aggregate outstanding balance of $89.7 million. These shared national credits are classified as pass rated and all payments are current and the loans are performing in accordance with their contractual terms. The Bank’s accounting policies for shared national credits, including our charge off and reserve policy, are consistent with the significant accounting policies disclosed in our financial statements for the total loan portfolio. Shared national credits are subject to the same underwriting guidelines as loans originated by the Bank and are subject to annual reviews where the risk rating of the loan is evaluated. Additionally, the Bank routinely obtains updated financial information and performs a financial analysis on a regular basis to ensure that the borrower can comply with the financial terms of the loan. The information used in the analysis is provided by the borrower through the agent bank.

Loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The amortized cost basis of loans serviced for others requiring recognition of a servicing asset were $126.4 million and $171.6 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The Company currently manages its loan portfolios and the respective exposure to credit losses (credit risk) by the specific portfolio segments shown below. The Company's loan portfolio segmentation is based primarily on call report codes, which are levels at which the Company develops and documents its systematic methodology to determine the ACL attributable to each respective portfolio segment. The ACL portfolio segments are aggregated into broader segments in order to present informative yet concise disclosures within this document, as follows:

Commercial business loans– Commercial business loans are made to provide funds for equipment and general corporate needs, as well as to finance owner-occupied real estate, and to finance future cash flows of federal government lease contracts. Repayment of these loans primarily uses the funds obtained from the operation of the borrower’s business. Commercial business loans also include lines of credit that are utilized to finance a borrower’s short-term credit needs and/or to finance a percentage of eligible receivables and inventory. This segment includes both internally originated and purchased participation loans. Credit risk arises from the successful operation of the business, which may be affected by competition, rising interest rates, regulatory changes and adverse conditions in the local and regional economy. Commercial business loans include the following ACL segments: commercial and industrial (including both healthcare and SBA subsegments), commercial real estate owner-occupied (including both healthcare and SBA subsegments), government leases and other loans.

Commercial real estate loans – Commercial real estate loans consist of non-owner occupied properties, such as investment properties for retail, office and multifamily with a history of occupancy and cash flow. This segment includes both internally originated and purchased participation loans. These loans carry the risk of adverse changes in the local economy and a tenant’s deteriorating credit strength, lease expirations in soft markets and sustained vacancies, which can adversely impact cash flow. Commercial real estate loans include the following ACL segments: commercial real estate non-owner occupied (including both healthcare and SBA subsegments).

Commercial acquisition, development and construction loans – Commercial acquisition, development and construction loans are intended to finance the construction of commercial and residential properties, and also includes loans for the acquisition and development of land. Construction loans represent a higher degree of risk than permanent real estate loans and may be affected by a variety of factors such as the borrower’s ability to control costs and adhere to time schedules and the risk that the market may not absorb constructed units within the anticipated time frame or at the anticipated price. The loan commitment on these loans often includes an interest reserve that allows the lender to periodically advance loan funds to pay interest charges on the outstanding balance of the loan. Commercial acquisition, development and construction loans include the following ACL segments: other construction (including an SBA subsegment).

Residential real estate– This residential real estate segment contains permanent and construction mortgage loans principally to consumers, but also includes loans to residential real estate developers, secured by residential real estate, which the Company previously presented under commercial acquisitions, development and construction loans under the incurred loss model. Residential real estate loans to consumers are evaluated for the adequacy of repayment sources at the time of approval, based upon measures including credit scores, debt-to-income ratios and collateral values. Credit risk arises from the continuing financial stability of the borrower and, where applicable, the builder, which can be adversely impacted by job loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy, among other factors. Residential real estate secured loans to developers represent a higher degree of risk than permanent real estate loans and may be affected by a variety of factors such as the borrower’s ability to control costs and adhere to time schedules and the risk that the market may not absorb constructed units within the anticipated time frame or at the anticipated price. Also impacting credit risk would be a shortfall in the value of the residential real estate in relation to the outstanding loan balance in the event of a default or subsequent liquidation of the real estate collateral. Residential real estate loans include the following ACL segments: residential and residential construction (including SBA subsegment).

Home equity lines of credit– This segment includes subsegments for senior lien and subordinate lien lines of credit. Credit risk is similar to residential real estate loans described above as it is subject to the borrower’s continuing financial stability and the value of the collateral securing the loan.

Consumer loans– This segment of loans includes primarily installment loans and personal lines of credit. Consumer loans include installment loans used by clients to purchase automobiles, boats and recreational vehicles. Credit risk is similar to residential real estate loans described above as it is subject to the borrower’s continuing financial stability and the value of the collateral securing the loan. This segment primarily includes loans purchased from a third-party originator that originates loans in order to finance the purchase of personal automotive vehicles. Credit risk is unique as this segment includes only those loans provided to consumers who cannot typically obtain financing through traditional lenders. As such, these loans are subject to a higher risk of default than the typical consumer loan. Consumer loans include the following ACL segments: subprime consumer automotive and consumer.

As of December 31, 2025, the Bank’s other real estate owned balance totaled $0.6 million. The other real estate owned balance consists ofone residential mortgage with a balance of $0.1 million andone commercial loan from the Company's acquisition of The First State Bank ("First State") in 2020 with a balance of $0.5 million. As of December 31, 2025, there wasone residential mortgage in the process of foreclosure with a loan balance totaling $0.4 million.

As of December 31, 2024, the Bank's other real estate owned balance totaled $2.8 million. The other real estate owned balance consists oftwo residential mortgages with a balance of $2.3 million andone commercial loan from the Company's acquisition of First State in 2020 with a balance of $0.5 million. As of December 31, 2024, there were seven residential mortgages in the process of foreclosure with a loan balance totaling $3.1 million.

Bank management uses anine-point internal risk rating system to monitor the credit quality of the overall loan portfolio. The firstsix categories are considered not criticized and are aggregated as “Pass” rated. The criticized rating categories utilized by management generally follow bank regulatory definitions.

Loans categorized as “Pass” rated have adequate sources of repayment, with little identifiable risk of collection and general conformity to the Bank's policy requirements, product guidelines and underwriting standards. Any exceptions that are identified during the underwriting and approval process have been adequately mitigated by other factors.

Loans categorized as “Special Mention” rated have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the institution’s credit position at some future date. Special mention assets are not adversely classified and do not expose the institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.

Loans categorized as “Substandard” rated are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt and are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Loans categorized as “Doubtful” rated have all the weakness inherent in those classified Substandard with the added characteristic that the weakness makes collections or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently known facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. However, these loans are not yet rated as loss because certain events may occur which would salvage the debt.

Any portion of a loan that has been or is expected to be charged off is placed in the “Loss” category.

To help ensure that risk ratings are accurate and reflect the present and future capacity of borrowers to repay a loan as agreed, the Bank has a structured loan rating process with several layers of internal and external oversight. Generally, consumer and residential mortgage loans are included in the Pass categories, unless a specific action, such as past due status, bankruptcy, repossession or death, occurs to raise awareness of a possible credit event. The Bank’s Chief Credit Officer is responsible for the timely and accurate risk rating of the loans in the portfolio at origination and on an ongoing basis. The Bank's Credit Department ensures that a review of all commercial relationships of $1.0 million or more is performed annually.

Review of the appropriate risk grade is included in both the internal and external loan review process and on an ongoing basis. The Bank has an experienced credit department that continually reviews and assesses loans within the portfolio. The Bank engages an external consultant to conduct independent loan reviews on at least an annual basis. Generally, the external consultant reviews commercial relationships with the intent of reviewing 35% to 40% of the Bank's commercial outstanding loan balances on an annual basis. The Bank's credit department compiles detailed reviews, including plans for resolution, on loans classified as Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful on a quarterly basis.

The following table presents the amortized cost of loans summarized by the aggregate Pass and the criticized categories of Special Mention, Substandard and Doubtful within the internal risk rating system by vintage year as of the period shown:

In December 2025, the Company entered into an arrangement with a Fintech client to fund an early wage access program for its customers. As of December 31, 2025, the balance is $2.7 million and is included in consumer loans. These advances typically have repayment terms of 1-14 days and are secured by the employee's earned wages. Under the terms of the arrangement, the Company's Fintech client is obligated to reimburse the Company for any advances that remain unpaid for more than 60 days. Based on the insignificant outstanding balance and the arrangement for reimbursement of advances outstanding for more than 60 days, the delinquency table above excludes loans included in the early wage access program.

The ACL is a valuation account that is deducted from the loans' amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Loans are charged off against the ACL when management believes the loan balance is uncollectible. Accrued interest receivable is excluded from the estimate of credit losses, as it is reversed from net income at the time when a loan is placed on non-accrual. Management determines the ACL balance using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Historical credit behaviors along with model judgments provide the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses. Adjustments to modeled loss estimates may be made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, delinquency level or term, as well as for changes in environmental conditions, such as changes in economic conditions, property values or other relevant factors.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, individually analyzed loans totaled $31.6 million and $43.2 million, respectively. A portion of the ACL of $0.4 million and $1.3 million was allocated to cover any loss in these loans at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The Bank evaluates certain loans in homogeneous pools, rather than on an individual basis, when those loans are below specific thresholds based on outstanding principal balance. More specifically, residential mortgage loans, home equity lines of credit and consumer loans are evaluated collectively for expected credit losses by applying allocation rates derived from the Bank’s historical losses specific to these loans. The reserve was immaterial at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

1 Excludes the provision (release of allowance) for unfunded commitments and any provision for credit losses related to available-for-sale debt securities, as applicable.

During the year ended December 31, 2025, there were charge-offs totaling $7.1 million. This amount comprised $3.2 million related to the unguaranteed portions of SBA loans across 17 borrowers, $2.1 million attributable toone borrower with a commercial loan secured by business assets, and $1.8 million associated with consumer automotive loans to various borrowers. Both the commercial government guaranteed and consumer automotive loan segments were previously identified as having higher instances of charge offs, and the single commercial loan secured by business assets is due to borrower specific circumstances, and not indicative of any larger trends within the commercial portfolio.

The provision for credit losses related to unfunded commitments wasimmaterial and $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The release of allowance related to unfunded commitments was $0.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.

The ACL is based on estimates and actual losses will vary from current estimates. Management believes that the granularity of the portfolio segments, the related loss estimation methodologies and other qualitative factors, as well as the consistency in the application of assumptions, result in an ACL that is representative of the risk found in the components of the portfolio at any given date.

Loan Modifications for Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty

Occasionally, the Bank modifies loans to borrowers in financial distress by providing concessions that allow for the borrower to lower their payment obligations for a defined period, these may include, but are not limited to: principal forgiveness, payment delays, term extensions, interest rate reductions and any combinations of the preceding.

The following tables summarize the amortized cost basis of loans that were modified during the twelve months ended:

Note 5 – Equity Method Investments

In accordance with Rules 3-09 and 4-08(g) of Regulation S-X, the Company must assess whether its equity method investments are significant. In evaluating the significance of these investments, the Company performed the income, investment and asset tests described in S-X 1-02(w) for each equity method investment. Rule 3-09 of Regulation S-X requires separate audited financial statements of an equity method investee in an annual report if either the income or investment test exceeds 20%. Rule 4-08(g) of Regulation S-X requires summarized financial information for all equity method investees in an annual report if any of the equity method investees, individually or in the aggregate, result in any of the tests exceeding 10%.

Under the income test, the Company's proportionate share of the revenue from equity method investments in the aggregate exceeded the applicable threshold under Rule 4-08(g) of 10% for the year ended December 31, 2025, accordingly, it is required to provide summarized income statement information for all investees for all periods presented. Management determined that the Company's investment in Warp Speed is considered significant under the meaning of Regulation S-X for the year ended December 31, 2025. In accordance with Regulation S-X Rule 3-09, the audited financial statements of Warp Speed for the year ended December 31, 2025 will be filed by amendment to this Annual Report on Form 10-K on or before March 31, 2026.

The Company's equity method investments are initially recorded at cost, including transaction costs to obtain the equity method investment, and are subsequently adjusted for changes due to its share of the entities' earnings.

Repurchase agreements

Along with traditional deposits, the Bank has access to securities sold under agreements to repurchase (“repurchase agreements”) with clients representing funds deposited, on an overnight basis, that are collateralized by investment securities owned by us. All repurchase agreements are subject to terms and conditions of repurchase/security agreements between the Company and the client and are accounted for as secured borrowings. The Company's repurchase agreements reflected in liabilities consist of client accounts and securities which are pledged on an individual security basis.

The Company monitors the fair value of the underlying securities on a monthly basis. Repurchase agreements are reflected in the amount of cash received in connection with the transaction. The primary risk with the Company's repurchase agreements is the market risk associated with the investments securing the transactions, as it may be required to provide additional collateral based on fair value changes of the underlying investments. Securities pledged as collateral under repurchase agreements are maintained with its safekeeping agents.

At December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, all of the Company's repurchase agreements were overnight agreements. These borrowings were collateralized with investment securities with a carrying value of $3.4 million and $2.8 million at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and were comprised of United States government agency securities and United States sponsored mortgage-backed securities. Declines in the value of the collateral would require the Company to increase the amounts of securities pledged.

These notes are unsecured and have aten-year term, maturing December 1, 2030, and will bear interest at a fixed rate of 4.25%, payable semi-annually in arrears, for the first five years of the term. Thereafter, the interest rate will reset quarterly to an interest rate per annum equal to a benchmark rate, which is Three-Month Term SOFR, plus 401 basis points, payable quarterly in arrears. These notes have been structured to qualify as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital purposes. A portion of the subordinated notes were redeemed in March 2026. Refer to Note 25 – Subsequent Events.

In March 2007, the Company completed the private placement of $4.0 million Floating Rate, Trust Preferred Securities through its MVB Financial Statutory Trust I subsidiary (the “Trust”). The Company established the Trust for the sole purpose of issuing the Trust Preferred Securities pursuant to an Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust.

Interest payments are due in March, June, September and December and are adjusted at the interest due dates at a rate of 0.26%, plus Three-Month Term SOFR. The obligations the Company provides with respect to the issuance of the trust preferred securities constitute a full and unconditional guarantee by the Company of the Trust’s obligations with respect to the trust preferred securities to the extent set forth in the related guarantees. The securities issued by the Trust are includable for regulatory purposes as a component of the Company's Tier 1 capital.

The Company recognized interest expense on its subordinated debt of $3.3 million,$3.2 million and $3.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Note 8 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Commitments

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the statements of financial condition.

The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount and type of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, varies and is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third-party. Standby letters of credit generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loans to customers. The Company's policy for obtaining collateral, and the nature of such collateral, is substantially the same as that involved in making commitments to extend credit.

Specifically, the Bank has entered into agreements to extend credit or provide conditional payments pursuant to standby and commercial letters of credit. In addition, the Bank utilizes letters of credit issued by the FHLB to collateralize certain public funds deposits.

To estimate the liability for off-balance sheet credit exposures, Bank management analyzed the portfolios of unfunded commitments based on the same segmentation used for the Company's ACL calculation. The estimated funding rate for each segment was derived from a funding rate study created by a third-party vendor which analyzed funding of various loan types over time to develop industry benchmarks at the call report code level. Once the estimated future advances were calculated, the allocation rate applicable to that portfolio segment was applied in the same manner as those used for the Company's ACL calculation. The resulting estimated loss allocations were totaled to determine the liability for unfunded commitments related to these loans, which management considers necessary to anticipate potential losses on those commitments that have a reasonable probability of funding. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the liability for unfunded commitments related to loans held for investment was $1.5 million and $1.6 million, respectively.

Total contractual amounts of the commitments as of December 31, were as follows:

(Dollars in thousands)20252024
Available on lines of credit$332,718$397,033
Stand-by letters of credit39,95441,064
Other loan commitments15,71615,840
$388,388$453,937

Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company grants a majority of its commercial, financial, agricultural, real estate and installment loans to customers throughout the North Central West Virginia and Northern Virginia markets. Collateral for loans is primarily commercial and residential real estate, personal property and business equipment. The Company evaluates the credit worthiness of each of its customers on a case-by-case basis and the amount of collateral the Company obtains is based upon management’s credit evaluation.

Contingent Liabilities

The Bank is involved in various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management and counsel, the outcome of these matters would not have a significant adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements.

The Company participates in a trusteed pension plan known as the Allegheny Group Retirement Plan. Benefits are based on years of service and the employee’s compensation. Accruals under the plan were frozen as of May 31, 2014. Freezing the plan resulted in a remeasurement of the pension obligations and plan assets as of the freeze date.

Investment in government securities, short-term investments, domestic equities and foreign equities are valued at the closing price reported on the active market on which the individual securities are traded. Alternative investments are valued at quoted prices, which are available but traded less frequently, and items that are fair valued using other financial instruments, the parameters of which can be directly observed. Real estate investment trusts are valued at the net asset value of the trust at the reporting date. The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while this plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value measurement at the reporting date.

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of acquired net assets under the acquisition method of accounting. Intangibles represent customer relationships and trade name related to prior acquisitions, which were being amortized over four years andten years, respectively.

In January 2025, the Company entered into a stock repurchase agreement with Trabian in which Trabian repurchased all the shares held by the Company, and the Company no longer consolidates Trabian in its financial statements. This transaction resulted in a reduction of goodwill and intangibles of $1.6 million and $0.3 million, respectively. For more information on the transaction, refer to Note 24 – Acquisitions and Divestitures.

Goodwill is evaluated for impairment if events and circumstances indicate a potential for impairment. No impairment charges were recorded for goodwill and other intangible assets in any of the periods presented.

Proceeds from stock options exercised were $2.3 million, $1.5 million and $0.6 million during 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. During 2025, 2024 and 2023, certain options were exercised in broker-assisted cashless transactions. Shares were forfeited related to exercise price and related tax obligations, and the Company paid tax authorities amounts due resulting in a net cash outflow.

Stock Options

Under the provisions of the Plan, the option price per share shall not be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date. Generally, options granted vest inthree tofive years and expireten years from the grant date.

At December 31, 2025, total unrecognized pre-tax compensation expense related to unvested stock options outstanding was $0.5 million. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.9 years. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the fair value of stock options vested was $0.4 million.

Restricted Stock Units

Under the provisions of the Plan, RSUs are similar to restricted stock awards, except the recipient does not receive the stock immediately, but instead receives the stock according to a vesting plan and distribution schedule, after achieving required performance milestones or upon remaining with the Company for a particular length of time. Each RSU that vests entitles the recipient to receive one share of the Company's common stock on a specified issuance date. The recipient does not have any stockholder rights, including voting, dividend or liquidation rights, with respect to the shares underlying awarded RSUs until the recipient becomes the record holder of those shares.

The Company granted 235,958 RSUs in 2025, 155,506 of which were time-based awards and 80,452 of which were performance-based awards. Time-based RSUs granted in 2025 generally vest inthree equal installments over athree-year period, with the exception of time-based grants to members of the Board of Directors, which vest over aone-year period. Performance-based RSUs vest in one installment at the end ofthree years, based on set criteria.

A summary of the activity for the Company's RSUs for the period indicated is presented in the following table:

At December 31, 2025, based on RSU awards outstanding at that time, the total unrecognized pre-tax compensation expense related to unvested RSU awards was $3.7 million. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.9 years. At December 31, 2025, the fair value of RSU awards vested during the year was $2.1 million.

Subsidiary Equity Plan

In December 2021, Victor's Board of Directors approved the Victor Technologies, Inc. 2021 Incentive Plan (the “2021 Victor LTI Plan”) which was an incentive plan denominated in Victor’s common shares. The 2021 Victor LTI Plan provided for the issuance of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units to selected employees and directors. The maximum number of shares issuable under the 2021 Victor LTI Plan was $4.0 million shares were authorized for grant under the plan, and as of September 30, 2025, 738,798 shares remained available for issuance.

In September 2025, the Company sold substantially all assets and operations of Victor. For more information on the sale, refer to Note 24 – Acquisitions and Divestitures. Upon closing of the transaction,2,016,225 unvested non-qualified and incentive stock options fully vested and were converted into a right to receive a stock option payout. The unrecognized compensation expense associated with these awards was recognized upon the closing of the transaction and was included as a reduction of the net gain on sale. Additionally, the stock option payout to the respective option holders was processed and applied as a reduction in the net gain on sale. As of December 31, 2025, no awards are outstanding under this plan andno further awards will be granted under this plan.

Note 14 – Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is determined by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is determined by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding, increased by both the number of shares that would be issued assuming the exercise of instruments under the Company's incentive stock plan.

Note 15 – Regulatory Capital Requirements

The Company is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary, actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Bank is required to comply with applicable capital adequacy standards established by the federal banking agencies. West Virginia state chartered banks, such as the Bank, are subject to similar capital requirements adopted by the West Virginia Division of Financial Institutions.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of capital. The optional community bank leverage ratio ("CBLR") framework, which is issued through interagency guidance, intends to provide a simple alternative measure of capital adequacy for electing qualifying depository institutions as directed under the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief and Consumer Protection Act. Under the CBLR, if a qualifying depository institution elects to use such measure, such institutions will be considered well capitalized if its ratio of Tier 1 capital to average total consolidated assets (i.e., leverage ratio) exceeds a 9% threshold, subject to a limited two quarter grace period, during which the leverage ratio cannot go 100 basis points below the then applicable threshold, and will not be required to calculate and report risk-based capital ratios. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

The most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain the minimum CBLR as set forth in the table below. The Company's actual capital amounts and ratio is presented in the table below.

Note 16 – Regulatory Restriction on Dividends

Approval of the regulatory agencies is required if the total of all dividends declared by the Bank in any calendar year exceeds the Bank’s net profits, as defined, for that year combined with its retained net profits for the precedingtwo calendar years.

Note 18 – Fair Value Measurements

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on relevant market information about the financial instrument. These estimates do not reflect any premium or discount that could result from offering for sale at one time of 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. Fair value estimates are based on existing on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments without attempting to estimate the value of anticipated future business and the value of assets and liabilities that are not considered financial instruments.

Assets Measured on a Recurring Basis

As required by accounting standards, financial assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following measurements are made on a recurring basis.

Available-for-sale investment securities —Available-for-sale investment securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices, if available. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security’s credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such as credit loss assumptions. Level I securities include those traded on an active exchange, such as the New York Stock Exchange and money market funds. Level II securities include mortgage-backed securities issued by government sponsored entities and private label entities, municipal bonds,

United States Treasury securities that are traded by dealers or brokers in inactive over-the-counter markets and corporate debt securities. Certain local municipal securities related to tax increment financing (“TIF”) are independently valued and classified as Level III instruments.

Loans held-for-sale — The fair value of loans held-for-sale is determined, when possible, using quoted secondary market prices or investor commitments. If no such quoted price exists, the fair value of a loan is determined using quoted prices for a similar asset or assets, adjusted for the specific attributes of that loan, which would be used by other market participants. If the fair value at the reporting date exceeds the amortized cost of a loan, the loan is reported at amortized cost. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no loans held-for-sale.

Interest rate swaps– Interest rate swaps are recorded at fair value based on third-party vendors who compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar instruments by using pricing models that consider observable market data.

Fair value hedges –Treated like an interest rate swap, fair value hedges are recorded at fair value based on third-party vendors who compile prices from various sources and may determine fair value of identical or similar instruments by using pricing models that consider observable market data.

Embedded derivatives — Accounted for and recorded separately from the underlying contract as a derivative at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair values are determined using the Monte Carlo model valuation technique. The valuation methodology utilized includes significant unobservable inputs.

The following tables present the assets reported on the consolidated statements of financial condition at their fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 by level within the fair value hierarchy:

Assets Measured on a Nonrecurring Basis

The Company may be required, from time to time, to measure certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These include assets that are measured at the lower of cost or market value that were recognized at fair value below cost at the end of the period. Certain non-financial assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include foreclosed assets (upon initial recognition or subsequent impairment), non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities measured at fair value in the second step of a goodwill impairment test and intangible assets and other non-financial long-lived assets measured at fair value for impairment assessment.

Collateral-dependent loans– Certain loans receivable are evaluated individually for credit loss when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of collateral. Estimated credit losses are based on the fair value of the collateral, adjusted for costs to sell. Collateral values are estimated using Level II inputs based on observable market data or Level III inputs based on customized discounting criteria. For a majority of collateral-dependent real estate related loans, the Company obtains a current external appraisal. Other valuation techniques are used as well, including internal valuations, comparable property analysis and contractual sales information.

Other real estate owned– Other real estate owned, which is obtained through the Bank’s foreclosure process, is valued utilizing the appraised collateral value. Collateral values are estimated using Level II inputs based on observable market data or Level III inputs based on customized discounting criteria. At the time the foreclosure is completed, the Company obtains an external appraisal.

Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 are included in the table below:

1 Fair value is generally determined through independent appraisals of the underlying collateral, which generally include various Level III inputs which are not identifiable.

2 Appraisals may be adjusted by management for qualitative factors such as economic conditions and estimated liquidation expenses. The range and weighted-average of liquidation expenses and other appraisal adjustments are presented as a percent of the appraisal.

3 Municipal securities classified as Level III instruments are comprised of TIF bonds related to certain local municipal securities.

4 Fair value determined through independent analysis of liquidity, rating, yield and duration.

5 Appraisals may be adjusted for qualitative factors, such as local economic conditions, liquidity, marketability and legal structure.

Note 19 – Derivatives

The Company uses certain derivative instruments to meet the needs of customers, as well as to manage the interest rate risk associated with certain transactions. All derivative financial instruments are recognized as either assets or liabilities and measured at fair value.

Fair Value Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company is exposed to changes in the fair value of fixed rate mortgages and certain fixed rate available for sale securities included in a closed portfolio due to changes in benchmark interest rates.

In 2023, the Company entered into five fixed portfolio layer method fair value swaps designated as hedging instruments under the portfolio layer method to manage exposure to changes in fair value on fixed rate mortgages and certain fixed rate available-for-sale securities attributable to the designated interest rate. Four of the interest rate swaps were designated to hedge a closed portfolio of fixed rate mortgages, andone of the interest rate swaps was designated to hedge a closed portfolio of fixed rate municipal bonds. The interest rate swaps involve the payment of fixed-rate amounts to a counterparty in exchange for the Company receiving variable-rate payments over the life of the agreements, without the exchange of the underlying notional amount.

In 2024, the Company discontinued a portfolio layer method fair value swap designated as a hedging instrument to hedge a closed portfolio of fixed rate mortgages. The hedge, which had a notional amount of $250.0 million, was fully dedesignated, and the Company paid the counterparty $2.1 million to terminate the swap. The Company recorded a $0.5 million loss in 2023, and $1.7 million remained on the balance sheet as a basis adjustment to the loans that were part of the hedged portfolio, which will be amortized over the life of the underlying hedged asset. As of December 31, 2025, the basis adjustment remaining on the hedged portfolio was $1.4 million. The Company recorded a $0.1 million gain on the derivative as a result of the discontinuance in 2024.

In January 2025, the Company discontinued a portfolio layer method fair value swap designated as a hedging instrument to hedge a closed portfolio of fixed rate mortgages. The hedge, which had a notional amount of $30.0 million, was fully dedesignated, and the Company was paid a nominal fee by the counterparty to terminate the swap. The amount that remained on the balance sheet as a basis adjustment to the loans that were part of the hedged portfolio was not material and was recognized in income during the first quarter of 2025.

In January 2025, the Company discontinued the portfolio layer method fair value swap designated as a hedging instrument to hedge a closed portfolio of fixed rate municipal bonds. The hedge, which had a notional amount of $50.0 million, was fully dedesignated, and the Company paid the counterparty $0.5 million to terminate the swap. A basis adjustment to the hedged securities portfolio of $0.5 million remained on the balance sheet at the time of discontinuance, which will be amortized over the life of the underlying hedged items. In September 2025, the Company sold approximately $35.2 million of municipal bonds that were part of the hedged portfolio. As of December 31, 2025, the amortized cost basis of the closed portfolio of municipal bonds was $20.0 million, inclusive of a $0.1 million remaining basis adjustment.

The remaining active fair value swaps are designated under the portfolio layer method. The notional amount of thetwo remaining active swaps was $84.2 million at December 31, 2025, one of which is amortizing and included a $35.8 million amortization adjustment to the notional amount at December 31, 2025. Under the portfolio layer method, the hedged items are designated as a hedged layer of closed portfolios of financial loans and municipal bonds that are anticipated to remain outstanding for the designated hedged periods. Adjustments are made to record the swaps at fair value based on changes in the hedged risk.

The following table, which includes active fair value hedged items and discontinued fair value hedged items on which a basis adjustment still remains, represents the carrying value of the portfolio layer method hedged assets and the cumulative fair value hedging adjustments included in the carrying value of the hedged assets as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

Matched Interest Rate Swaps. The Company enter into interest rate swap contracts to help commercial loan borrowers manage their interest rate risk. The interest rate swap contracts with commercial loan borrowers allow them to convert floating-rate loan payments to fixed rate loan payments. When the Company enters into an interest rate swap contract with a commercial loan borrower, the Company simultaneously enters into a "mirror" swap contract with a third-party. The third-party exchanges the borrower's fixed-rate loan payments for floating-rate loan payments. These derivatives are not designated as hedges and changes in fair value are recognized in earnings. Because these derivatives have mirror-image contractual terms, the changes in fair value substantially offset each other through earnings. Fees earned in connection with the execution of derivatives related to this program are recognized in earnings through loan-related derivative income.

Embedded Derivative

Note 22 – Segment Reporting

The Company has identified three reportable segments: CoRe Banking, Mortgage Banking and Financial Holding Company. All other operating segments are summarized in an Other category. The Company determined these segments based on differences in products and services.

The Company's CoRe Banking segment, which includes its Fintech division, represents banking products and services offered to customers by the Bank, primarily loans and deposits accounts. Revenue from banking activities consists primarily of interest earned on loans and investment securities and service charges on deposit accounts.

Revenue from the Company's Mortgage Banking segment is primarily comprised of its share of net income or loss from mortgage banking activities of its equity method investments in ICM and Warp Speed.

Revenue from Financial Holding Company activities is mainly comprised of intercompany service income and dividends.

The Other category consists of professional service and the Company's Edge Venture companies. Revenue from the professional services are primarily made up of professional consulting income derived from banks and Fintech companies. Revenue from the Edge Ventures companies, including Victor, primarily consist of software services, offering account functionality and transactions to customers through web-based platforms. In September 2025, the Company sold substantially all assets and operations of Victor and recognized a $34.2 million pre-tax gain that is included in the Other category in the tables below. The Other category no longer included substantially all of the income and expense activity derived from Victor beginning in October 2025.

The Company's CODMs regularly review the performance of operating segments to assess performance and allocate resources between segments as necessary. The CODMs consist of the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Administrative Officer. The measure used by the CODMs to assess performance and decide how to allocate resources is based on net income that also is reported on the income statement as consolidated net income. Net income is used by the CODMs to monitor budget versus actual results, as well as benchmarking to the Company's peers. Net income on a segment basis is reported below.

Information about the reportable segments and reconciliation to the consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:
