2.   Deposits increased by $1.04 billion, or 44.3%, from June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to increases in time deposits of $937.4 million, or a 71.8% increase compared with the prior year. The significant drivers in the change in time deposits were the increase in brokered time deposits, which increased by $752.7 million, and Community Banking Division time deposits, which increased by $156.2 million compared to June 30, 2024.

3.   Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances decreased by $25.0 million, or 7.2%, from June 30, 2024. The decrease was attributable to maturities on outstanding advances and net paydowns on amortizing advances.

4.   Shareholders’ equity increased by $117.7 million, or 31.2%, from June 30, 2024, primarily due to net income of $83.4 million and $31.3 million of net proceeds on shares issued in connection with the Bank’s at-the-market (“ATM”) offering.

Net income increased by $6.5 million to $25.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, compared to net income of $18.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025.

1.   Net interest and dividend income before provision for credit losses increased by $8.0 million to $53.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, compared to $46.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to the following:

• An increase in interest income earned on loans of $8.1 million, primarily due to the resolution of a significant nonaccrual National Lending Division originated loan and higher transactional income in the National Lending Division purchased portfolio; and
• An increase in interest income earned on short-term investments of $0.8 million, due to higher average balances, partially offset by lower rates earned; partially offset by,
• An increase in deposit interest expense of $1.4 million, primarily due to higher average balances, partially offset by lower rates on interest-bearing deposits.

The total return on purchased loans for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 was 8.8%, a decrease from 9.5% for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The following table details the total return on purchased loans:

Total	$	195,445		8.71	%		$	143,900		9.11	%
(1) The total return on purchased loans represents scheduled accretion, accelerated accretion, and gains (losses) on real estate owned, and release of allowance for credit losses on purchased loans recorded during the period divided by the average invested balance on an annualized basis. The total return does not include the effect of purchased loan charge-offs or recoveries in the quarter. Total return is considered a non-GAAP financial measure.

2.   Provision for credit losses increased by $2.9 million to $3.5 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, compared to $547 thousand in the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily related to loan growth and increased reserves on the unguaranteed portion of the SBA portfolio.

3.   Noninterest income increased by $6.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to an increase in gain on sale of SBA loans of $6.8 million, due to the sale of $107.6 million in SBA loans during the quarter ended June 30, 2025 as compared to the sale of $26.8 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

4.   Noninterest expense increased by $4.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025 compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to the following:

• An increase in salaries and employee benefits expense of $1.8 million, primarily due to increases in regular stock and incentive compensation expense;
  
• An increase in loan expense of $2.1 million primarily related to increased expenses in connection with the origination of SBA 7(a) loans; and
  
• An increase in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance expense of $266 thousand, due to the growth of the Bank’s asset size and an increased assessment rate.

5.   Income tax expense increased by $5.3 million to $12.5 million, or an effective tax rate of 33.2%, for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, compared to $7.3 million, or an effective tax rate of 32.4%, for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The increase in effective tax rate is primarily due to changes in income apportionment for state taxes.

As of June 30, 2025, nonperforming assets totaled $35.6 million, or 0.8% of total assets, compared to $28.3 million, or 0.9% of total assets, as of June 30, 2024.

As of June 30, 2025, past due loans totaled $30.1 million, or 0.8% of total loans, compared to past due loans totaling $26.3 million, or 1.0% of total loans, as of June 30, 2024.

As of June 30, 2025, the Bank’s Tier 1 leverage capital ratio was 11.6%, compared to 12.3% at June 30, 2024, and the Total risk-based capital ratio was 14.7% at June 30, 2025, compared to 14.8% at June 30, 2024. Capital ratios decreased primarily due to the increase in risk-weighted assets and average assets from significant loan growth during the year ended June 30, 2025, partially offset by increased retained earnings and additional capital raised under the Bank’s ATM offering.

The net interest rate spread represents the difference between the weighted-average yield on interest-earning assets and the weighted-average cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the period. The net interest margin represents net interest income as a percent of average interest-earning assets for the period. The efficiency ratio represents noninterest expense divided by the sum of net interest income (before the credit loss provision) plus noninterest income. For purposes of calculating this ratio, commercial real estate includes all non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans defined as such by regulatory guidance, including all land development and construction loans. Tangible book value per share represents total shareholders’ equity less the sum of preferred stock and intangible assets divided by common shares outstanding.
