Provision for Credit Losses
Current report
For the third quarter of 2026, the provision for credit losses on loans was a reversal of $867 thousand compared to $1.3 million for the third quarter of 2025. The decrease was driven by net loan recoveries of $419 thousand during the quarter, and a decrease in the historical loss rate used in the calculation of the AC due to an update to the Bank's peer group. The ACL ratio for loans was 1.32% on September 30, 2026 and 1.32% on December 31, 2025. See the Loan Quality discussion for additional information on these loans.
Current report
For the third quarter of 2026, noninterest income increased $626 thousand compared to the same period in 2025. Wealth Management fees increased, primarily because of growth in assets under management, loan service charges from prepayment penalties and bank-owned life insurance from new purchases in the quarter. These increases were partially offset by a reduction in the gain on sale of loans as the Bank has been holding more loans in its portfolio.
Current report
Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2026 decreased $756 thousand compared to the same period in 2025. The decrease was primarily in employee benefits related to the Ban's self-insured health insurance plan, which declined from $1.2 million for the third quarter of 2025 to $697 thousand for the third quarter of 2026.

Management utilizes a risk rating scale ranging from 1-Prime to 9-Loss to evaluate loan quality. This risk rating scale is used primarily for commercial purpose loans. Consumer purpose loans are identified as either a performing or nonperforming rating based on the performance status of the loans. Nonperforming loans are loans that are 90 days or more past due and still accruing. Loans rated 1 – 4 are considered pass credits. Loans that are rated 5-Pass Watch are credits that have been identified as credits that are likely to warrant additional attention and monitoring. Loans rated 6-Other Asset Especially Mentioned (OAEM) or worse begin to receive enhanced monitoring and reporting by the Bank. Loans rated 7-Substandard or 8-Doubtful exhibit the greatest financial weakness and present the greatest possible risk of loss to the Bank. Nonaccrual loans are rated no better than 7-Substandard. The following represent some of the factors used in determining the risk rating of a borrower: cash flow, debt coverage, liquidity, management, and collateral. Risk ratings, for pass credits, are generally reviewed annually for term debt and at renewal for revolving or renewing debt. The Bank monitors overall loan quality of the portfolio by reviewing three primary measurements: (1) loans rated 6-OAEM or worse (collectively “watch list”), (2) delinquent loans, and (3) net-charge-offs.
Current wording
Management utilizes a risk rating scale ranging from 1-Prime to 9-Loss to evaluate loan quality. This risk rating scale is used primarily for commercial purpose loans. Consumer purpose loans are identified as either a pass or substandard rating based on the performance status of the loans. Substandard consumer loans are loans that are 90 days or more past due and still accruing. Loans rated 1 – 5 are considered pass credits. Loans rated 6-Other Asset Especially Mentioned (OAEM) or worse begin to receive enhanced monitoring and reporting by the Bank. Loans rated 7-Substandard or 8-Doubtful exhibit the greatest financial weakness and present the greatest possible risk of loss to the Bank. Loans rated 9-Loss are considered uncollectable and the loan will be charged-off in the period it is deemed uncollectable. There were no loans in this category. Nonaccrual loans are rated no better than 7-Substandard. The following represent some of the factors used in determining the risk rating of a borrower: cash flow, debt coverage, liquidity, management, and collateral. Risk ratings, for pass credits, are generally reviewed annually for term debt and at renewal for revolving or renewing debt.

Watch list loans (commercial loans rated 6, 7 or 8) exhibit financial weaknesses that increase the potential risk of default or loss to the Bank. However, inclusion on the watch list, does not by itself mean a loss is certain. The watch list includes both performing and nonperforming loans. Watch list loans totaled $51.6 million at June 30, 2026 compared to $58.8 million at December 31, 2025. The composition of the watch list (commercial loans rated 6, 7 or 8), by primary collateral, is shown in Note 6 of the accompanying financial statements.

The Bank’s Loan Management Committee reviews these loans and risk ratings on a quarterly basis in order to proactively identify and manage problem loans. In addition, a committee meets monthly to discuss possible workout strategies for all credits rated 7-Substandard or worse. Management also tracks other commercial loan risk measurements including high loan to value loans, concentrations, participations and policy exceptions and reports these to the Board Enterprise Risk Management Committee of the Board of Directors. The Bank also uses an external loan review consultant to assist with internal loan review with a goal of reviewing up to 80% of commercial loans each year. The FDIC defines certain supervisory loan-to-value lending limits. The Bank’s internal loan–to-value limits are all equal to or have a lower loan-to-value limit than the supervisory limits. However, in certain instances, the Bank may make a loan that exceeds the supervisory loan-to-value limit. At June 30, 2026, the Bank had loans of $15.0 million (0.9% of gross loans) that exceeded the supervisory loan-to value limit, compared to 1.0% at the prior year end.

Loan quality, as measured by nonaccrual loans, totaled $17.7 million at June 30, 2026 compared to $8.5 million at December 31, 2025 and the nonperforming loan to total loans ratio was 1.10% at June 30, 2026 compared to 0.55% at December 31, 2025. Loans past due 90-days or more, but still accruing, totaled $5 thousand at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The increase in nonaccrual loans in 2026 was largely due to one commercial real estate loan for $8.8 million that was put on nonaccrual in the second quarter of 2026. This loan is current on payments as of June 30, 2026 and a specific reserve of $734 thousand has been established for this loan based on its risk rating and collateral values.

Loans past due 90-days or more, but still accruing, totaled $204 thousand at September 30, 2026 compared to $5 thousand at December 31, 2025. The increase in nonaccrual loans in 2026 was largely due to one commercial real estate loan for $8.6 million that was put on nonaccrual in the second quarter of 2026 and is discussed below.
Previous wording
The nonaccrual loans are comprised primarily of two (2) CRE loans to unrelated borrowers totaling $17.4 million. Of these two CRE loans, one is for a matured $7.0 million construction loan on a mixed-use commercial project. During the second quarter, the Bank committed to provide additional funding of up to $2.5 million (with $1.6 million advanced as of June 30, 2026) to fully enclose the property and protect the collateral, and to pay all past due construction costs. In total, $8.6 million is in nonaccrual for this borrower as of June 30, 2026. As part of this funding commitment, a forbearance agreement was signed by the developer that ceased all construction until funding from new sources was acquired, established specific performance criteria for the developer, and established specific remedies for the Bank in the event of non-compliance with the forbearance agreement. Based on a discounted “as-is” appraisal received in the first quarter of 2026 and the additional funding committed, the Bank increased its specific reserve from $1.0 million on March 31, 2026, to $1.2 million on June 30, 2026. The second CRE loan totals $8.8 million and is secured by six (6) commercial office buildings. This loan is a purchased participation loan where the Bank is not the lead lender. The loan was placed on nonaccrual status during the second quarter of 2026, and as of June 30, 2026, the Bank has a specific reserve of $734 thousand based on a recent appraisal.
Current wording
The nonperforming loans are comprised primarily of three (3) CRE loans totaling $17.5 million to two (2) unrelated borrowers. The Bank has two (2) construction loans to one (1) borrower totaling $8.9 million on a mixed-use commercial project. One of these loans is for $7.0 million and has matured. The second loan is for $1.9 million, part of a $2.5 million commitment, made during the second quarter of 2026 to provide additional funding to fully enclose the property and protect the collateral, and to pay all past due construction costs. As part of this funding commitment, a forbearance agreement was signed by the developer that ceased all construction until funding from new sources was acquired, established specific performance criteria for the developer, and established specific remedies for the Bank in the event of non-compliance with the forbearance agreement. Based on a discounted “as-is” appraisal received in the third quarter of 2026, the Bank has maintained its specific reserve of $1.2 million on September 30, 2026 for this loan. The loan to the second borrower is for an $8.6 million CRE loan and is secured by six (6) commercial office buildings. This loan is a purchased participation loan where the Bank is not the lead lender. The loan was placed on nonaccrual status during the second quarter of 2026, and as of September 30, 2026, the Bank has a specific reserve of $628 thousand.
Previous wording
During the second quarter of 2026, the Bank provided modifications to two unrelated BEFD. One $7.0 million CRE loan was modified with a term extension that had a more-than-significant payment delay. As of June 30, 2026, this loan had matured and repayment has been delayed under the terms of a forbearance agreement. As part of the forbearance agreement, the Bank has committed to lend $2.5 million to the borrower and had advanced $1.6 million as of June 30, 2026, for a total of $8.6 million outstanding to this BEFD as of June 30, 2026. The payment terms of the new loan are also covered by the terms of the forbearance agreement. This loan is on nonaccrual status as of June 30, 2026, and a $1.2 million specific reserve has been established for this loan. The second loan modification was for an $8.8 million CRE loan that was granted interest only payments until the third quarter of 2026 when it is scheduled to return to full principal and interest payments. The Bank has no commitment to lend additional amounts to this borrower. As of June 30, 2026, this loan was on nonaccrual and had a specific reserve of $734 thousand.

Previous wording
The ACL for unfunded commitments is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The ACL represents management’s estimate of expected losses from unfunded commitments and is determined by estimating future usage of the commitments, based on historical usage. The estimated loss is calculated in a manner similar to that used for the ACL for loans, previously described. The ACL is increased or decreased through the provision for credit losses. The ACL for unfunded commitments was $2.0 million on June 30, 2026 and $1.9 million on December 31, 2025.

These programs allow the Bank to offer full FDIC coverage to large depositors, but with the convenience to the customer of only having to deal with one bank. The Bank solicits these deposits from within its market and it believes they present no greater risk than any other local deposit. Only reciprocal deposits that exceed 20% of liabilities are considered brokered deposits for regulatory reporting purposes. At June 30, 2026, the Bank’s reciprocal deposits were 15.3% of the Bank’s total liabilities compared to 17.0% at the previous year-end.

Capital adequacy for the Bank is currently defined by regulatory agencies through the use of several minimum required ratios. The capital ratios to be considered “well capitalized” are shown in the table below. In addition, a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% is applicable to all of the capital ratios except for the Tier 1 Leverage ratio. The capital conservation buffer is equal to the lowest value of the three applicable capital ratios less the regulatory minimum for each respective capital measurement. The Bank’s capital conservation buffer at June 30, 2026 was 5.73% compared to the regulatory buffer of 2.5%. Compliance with the capital conservation buffer is required in order to avoid limitations to certain capital distributions and is in addition to the minimum required capital requirements. As of June 30, 2026, the Bank was “well capitalized.”

Historically, the Corporation has satisfied its liquidity needs from earnings, repayment of loans and amortizing investment securities, maturing investment securities, loan sales, deposit growth and its ability to access existing lines of credit. All investment securities are classified as available for sale; therefore, marketable securities that are unencumbered ($81.3 million fair value) are an additional source of readily available liquidity, either by selling the security or, more preferably, to provide collateral for additional borrowing. The Bank also has access to other wholesale funding via the brokered CD market and reciprocal deposits via its Wealth Management service.

In July 2026, the 21 st Century Road to Housing Act (the Act) became law. The Act expands the limit on the use of reciprocal deposits that can be excluded from brokered deposit treatment by banks. The Act prescribes a tiered calculation for reciprocal deposits and is expected to more than double the Bank’s capacity for non-brokered reciprocal deposits.
