Part I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
In this report, unless otherwise expressly stated or the context otherwise requires, the terms "we," "us," the "Company," "Eagle" and "our" refer to Eagle Bancorp, Inc. and our subsidiaries on a consolidated basis, except in the description of any of our securities, in which case these terms refer solely to Eagle Bancorp, Inc. and not to any of our subsidiaries. References to "EagleBank" or "Bank" refer to EagleBank, which is our principal operating subsidiary. This report contains additional trade names and trademarks of other companies. We do not intend our use or display of other companies' trade names or trademarks to imply an endorsement or sponsorship of us by such companies or any relationship with any of these companies.
Eagle Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"), headquartered in Bethesda, Maryland, was incorporated under the laws of the State of Maryland on October 28, 1997, to serve as the bank holding company for EagleBank (the "Bank"). The Company was formed by a group of local businessmen and professionals with significant prior experience in community banking in the Company’s market area, together with an experienced community bank senior management team.
The Bank, a Maryland chartered commercial bank, which is a member of the Federal Reserve System ("Federal Reserve Board," "Federal Reserve" or "FRB"), is the Company’s principal operating subsidiary. It commenced banking operations on July 20, 1998. The Bank currently operates twelve branch offices: six in Suburban Maryland; three located in the District of Columbia; and three in Northern Virginia. The Bank also has four lending centers and utilizes various digital capabilities, including remote deposit services and mobile banking services. The Bank maintains its physical presence via branches and lending centers consistent with its strategic plan.
The Bank has three active direct subsidiaries: Bethesda Leasing, LLC, Eagle Insurance Services, LLC and Landroval Municipal Finance, Inc. Bethesda Leasing, LLC holds title to and operates real estate owned and acquired through foreclosure. Eagle Insurance Services, LLC, which previously offered access to insurance products and services through a referral program with a third-party insurance broker, continues to receive fee income in connection with such program. Landroval Municipal Finance, Inc. focuses on lending to municipalities by buying debt on the public market as well as direct purchase issuance.
The Bank operates as a community bank alternative to the super-regional financial institutions that dominate its primary market area. The cornerstone of the Bank’s philosophy is to provide superior, personalized service to its clients. The Bank focuses on relationship banking, providing each client with a number of services, familiarizing itself with, and addressing itself to, client needs in a proactive, personalized fashion. Management believes that the Bank’s target market segments, small, medium and middle-sized for profit and non-profit businesses and the consumer base working or living in and near the Bank’s market area, demand the convenience and personal service that an independent locally based financial institution such as the Bank can offer. These themes of convenience and proactive personal service form the basis for the Bank’s business development strategies.
Over its twenty-seven year history, the Company has grown primarily through organic growth, but also has completed two whole bank acquisitions. On August 31, 2008, the Company acquired Fidelity & Trust Financial Corporation ("Fidelity") and on October 31, 2014 acquired Virginia Heritage Bank ("Virginia Heritage").
Description of Services. The Bank offers a broad range of commercial banking services to its business and professional clients, as well as consumer banking services to individuals living and/or working primarily in the Bank’s market area. These services include (i) commercial loans for a variety of business purposes such as for working capital, equipment purchases, real estate lines of credit and government contract financing; (ii) asset based lending and accounts receivable financing (on a limited basis); (iii) construction and commercial real estate loans; (iv) business equipment financing; (v) consumer home equity lines of credit, personal lines of credit and term loans; (vi) consumer installment loans such as auto and personal loans; and (vii) personal credit cards offered through an outside vendor.
The Bank emphasizes providing commercial banking services to sole proprietors, small, medium and middle-sized businesses, partnerships, corporations, non-profit organizations and associations and investors generally living and working in and near the Bank’s primary service area. A full range of retail banking services are offered to accommodate the individual needs of both corporate customers as well as the community the Bank serves. The Bank also offers online banking, mobile banking and a remote deposit service, which allows clients to facilitate and expedite deposit transactions through the use of electronic devices. A suite of Treasury Management services is also offered to business clients. The Bank’s deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") to the fullest extent provided by law.

The Bank’s loan portfolio consists primarily of traditional business and real estate secured loans. Commercial and industrial loans are made, with a substantial portion having variable and adjustable rates, where the cash flow of the borrower's operating business is the principal source of debt service with a secondary emphasis on collateral. Real estate loans are made generally for commercial purposes and are structured using both variable and fixed rates and renegotiable rates which adjust in three to five years, with maturities of generally five to ten years. Commercial real estate loans, which comprise the largest portion of the loan portfolio, are secured by both owner occupied and non-owner occupied real property and include a component of acquisition, development and construction ("ADC") lending.
The Bank’s consumer loan portfolio is a smaller portion of the loan portfolio and primarily includes home equity loans and lines of credit that are structured with an interest only draw period followed either by a balloon maturity or a fully amortized repayment schedule.
The Bank is also a preferred lender under the Small Business Administration's ("SBA") Preferred Lender Program. As a preferred lender, the Bank can originate certain SBA loans in-house without prior SBA approval. SBA loans are made through programs designed by the federal government to assist the small business community in obtaining financing from financial institutions that are given government guarantees as an incentive to make the loans. Under certain circumstances, the Bank attempts to further mitigate commercial term loan losses by using loan guarantee programs offered by the SBA. SBA lending is subject to federal legislation that can affect the availability and funding of the program. From time to time, this dependence on legislative funding causes limitations and uncertainties with regard to the continued funding of such programs, which could potentially have an adverse financial impact on our business.
Up until the second half of 2024, the Company originated multifamily Federal Housing Administration ("FHA") loans through the Department of Housing and Urban Development's Multifamily Accelerated Program. The Company securitized these loans through the Government National Mortgage Association ("Ginnie Mae") MBS I program and sold the resulting securities in the open market to authorized dealers in the normal course of business and periodically bundled and sold the servicing rights. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had exited this business.
The Bank's lending activities carry the risk that the borrowers will be unable to perform on their obligations. As such, interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve and general economic conditions, nationally and in the Bank’s primary market area, could have a significant impact on the Bank’s and the Company’s results of operations. To the extent that economic conditions deteriorate, business and individual borrowers may be less able to meet their obligations to the Bank in full, in a timely manner, resulting in decreased earnings or losses to the Bank. Economic conditions may also adversely affect the value of property pledged as security for loans.
The Bank's goal is to mitigate risks in the event of unforeseen threats to the loan portfolio as a result of economic downturn or other negative influences. Plans for mitigating inherent risks in managing loan assets include: designing and enforcing loan policies and procedures to mitigate those risks, evaluating each borrower’s business plan during the underwriting process, identifying and monitoring primary and alternative sources for loan repayment and obtaining collateral to mitigate economic loss in the event of liquidation. Specific loan reserves may be established based upon credit and/or collateral risks on an individual loan basis. A risk rating system is employed to proactively estimate loss exposure and provide a measuring system for setting general and specific reserve allocations.
The composition of the Company’s loan portfolio is heavily weighted toward commercial real estate, both owner occupied and income producing. As of December 31, 2025, owner occupied commercial real estate and construction – commercial and industrial ("C&I") (owner occupied) represented approximately 23% of the loan portfolio while non-owner occupied commercial real estate and real estate construction represented approximately 57% of the loan portfolio. The combined owner and non-owner occupied and commercial real estate loans represented approximately 80% of the loan portfolio. Real estate also serves as collateral for loans made for other purposes, resulting in a combined total 82% of all loans in our portfolio being secured or partially secured by real estate. These loans are underwritten to mitigate lending risks typical of this type of loan such as declines in real estate values, changes in borrower cash flow and general economic conditions. The Bank typically requires a maximum loan-to-value ("LTV") ratio of 80% and a minimum debt service coverage ratio ("DSCR") of 1.15 to 1.0. Personal guarantees may be required but may be limited. In making real estate commercial mortgage loans, the Bank generally requires that interest rates adjust not less frequently than five years.
The Company is also an active traditional commercial lender providing loans for a variety of purposes, including working capital, equipment, accounts receivable financing and other corporate purposes. The Company's underwriting standards address collateral and debt service cash flow. Personal guarantees are generally required, but may be limited. In originating SBA loans, the Company assumes the risk of non-payment on the unguaranteed portion of the credit. The Company generally sells the guaranteed portion of the loan generating noninterest income

from the gains on sale, as well as servicing income on the portion participated. SBA loans other than Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loans are subject to the same cash flow analyses as other commercial loans. SBA loans are subject to a maximum loan size established by the SBA as well as internal loan size guidelines. Refer to "Note 4 – Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses" to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding loan origination and risk management.
Our lending activities are subject to a variety of borrower lending limits imposed by state and federal law. These limits will increase or decrease in response to increases or decreases in the Bank’s level of capital. As of December 31, 2025, the Bank had a legal lending limit of $195.0 million. As of December 31, 2025, the average loan size outstanding for Commercial Real Estate ("CRE") and C&I loans were $7.5 million and $1.7 million, respectively. In accordance with internal lending policies, the Bank may sell participations in its loans to other banks, which allows the Bank to manage risk involved in these loans and to meet the lending needs of its clients. The risk of nonpayment (or deferred payment) of loans is inherent in all lending. The Bank’s marketing focus on small to medium-sized businesses may result in the assumption by the Bank of certain lending risks that are different from those associated with loans to larger companies. Management and/or committees of the Bank carefully evaluate loan applications and attempt to minimize credit risk exposure by use of loan application data, due diligence and approval and monitoring procedures; however, there can be no assurance that such procedures can significantly reduce such lending risks.
Loans are secured primarily by duly recorded first deeds of trust or mortgages. In some cases, the Bank may accept a recorded junior trust position. In general, borrowers will have a proven ability to build, lease, manage and/or sell a commercial or residential project and demonstrate satisfactory financial condition. Additionally, an equity contribution toward the project is generally required whether associated with acquisition or construction of a property.
The general terms and underwriting standards for each type of commercial real estate and construction loan are incorporated into the Bank’s lending policies. These policies are analyzed periodically by management, and the policies are reviewed and re-approved periodically by either the Board of Directors (the "Board") or a designated committee thereof. The Bank’s loan policies and practices described in this report are subject to periodic change, and each guideline or standard is subject to waiver or exception in the case of any particular loan, by the appropriate officer or committee, in accordance with the Bank’s loan policies. Loan policy standards are often stated in mandatory terms, such as "shall" or "must," but these provisions are subject to exceptions. Policy requires that loan value not exceed a percentage of "market value" or "fair value" based upon appraisals or evaluations obtained in the ordinary course of the Bank’s underwriting practices.
Construction loans require that the financial condition and experience of the general contractor and major subcontractors be satisfactory to the Bank. Guaranteed, fixed price contracts are required whenever appropriate, along with payment and performance bonds or completion bonds for larger scale projects.
Loans intended for residential land acquisition, lot development and construction are made on the premise that the land: (1) is or will be developed for building sites for residential structures; and (2) will ultimately be utilized for construction or improvement of residential zoned real properties, including the creation of housing. Residential development and construction loans will finance projects such as single family subdivisions, planned unit developments, townhouses and condominiums. Residential land ADC loans generally are underwritten with a maximum term of 36 months, including extensions approved at origination.
Commercial land acquisition and construction loans are secured by real property where loan funds will be used to acquire land and to construct or improve appropriately zoned real property for the creation of income producing or owner-user commercial properties. Borrowers are generally required to put equity into each project at levels determined by the appropriate loan committee. Commercial land acquisition and construction loans generally are underwritten with a maximum term of 24 months.
LTV ratios, with few exceptions, are maintained consistent with or below supervisory guidelines.
Substantially all construction draw requests must be presented in writing on American Institute of Architects documents and certified either by the contractor, the borrower and/or the borrower’s architect. The Company's policies also provide that each draw request shall also include the borrower’s soft cost breakdown certified by the borrower or their Chief Financial Officer. Prior to an advance, to justify the draw requisition, the Bank or its contractor inspects the project to determine that the work has been completed.
Commercial permanent loans are generally secured by improved real property, which is generating income in the normal course of operation. Debt service coverage, assuming stabilized occupancy, must be satisfactory to support

| | |
a permanent loan. The DSCR is ordinarily at least 1.15 to 1.0. As part of the underwriting process, DSCRs are generally stress tested assuming a 200 basis point increase in interest rates from their current levels.
Commercial permanent loans generally are underwritten with a term not greater than 10 years or the remaining useful life of the property, whichever is lower. The preferred term is between 5 to 7 years, with amortization to a maximum of 25 years.
Personal guarantees are generally received from the principals on commercial real estate loans, and only in instances where the LTV is sufficiently low and the debt service coverage is sufficiently high is consideration given to either limiting or not requiring personal recourse.
Updated appraisals for real estate secured loans are obtained based on factors relating to borrower financial condition, project status, loan terms and market conditions.
The Company’s loan portfolio includes ADC real estate loans including both investment and owner occupied projects. ADC loans amounted to $1.2 billion as of December 31, 2025. A portion of the ADC portfolio, both speculative and non-speculative, includes loan funded interest reserves at origination. ADC loans that provide for the use of interest reserves represented approximately 38% of the outstanding ADC loan portfolio as of December 31, 2025. The decision to establish a loan-funded interest reserve is made upon origination of the ADC loan and is based upon a number of factors considered during underwriting of the credit including: (1) the feasibility of the project; (2) the experience of the sponsor; (3) the creditworthiness of the borrower and guarantors; (4) borrower equity contribution; and (5) the level of collateral protection.
When appropriate, an interest reserve provides an effective means of addressing the cash flow characteristics of a properly underwritten ADC loan, although as with all lending activities the Company remains exposed to credit risk. The Company does not significantly utilize interest reserves in other loan products. The Company recognizes that one of the risks inherent in the use of interest reserves is the potential masking of underlying problems with the project and/or the borrower’s ability to repay the loan. In order to mitigate this inherent risk, the Company employs a series of reporting and monitoring mechanisms on all ADC loans, whether or not an interest reserve is provided, including: (1) construction and development timelines which are monitored on an ongoing basis which track the progress of a given project to the timeline projected at origination; (2) a construction loan administration department independent of the lending function; (3) third-party independent construction loan inspection reports; (4) monthly interest reserve monitoring reports detailing the balance of the interest reserves approved at origination and the days of interest carry represented by the reserve balances as compared to the then current anticipated time to completion and/or sale of speculative projects; and (5) quarterly commercial real estate construction meetings among senior Company management, which includes monitoring of current and projected real estate market conditions. If a project has not performed as expected, it is not the customary practice of the Company to increase loan funded interest reserves.
As part of its overall risk assessments, management reviews the Bank’s loan portfolio and general economic and market conditions on a regular basis and will continue to adjust both quantitative and qualitative reserve factors as necessary.
Deposit services include business and personal checking accounts, Negotiable Order of Withdrawal ("NOW") accounts, tiered savings and money market accounts and time deposits with varying maturity structures and customer options. A complete individual retirement account program is available. The Bank also participates in the IntraFi Network, LLC ("IntraFi") Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service ("CDARS") and its Insured Cash Sweep ("ICS") program, both of which function to provide greater FDIC insurance coverage for participating Bank customers. The Bank also utilizes brokered deposit funds in its overall asset/liability management program.
The Bank historically has offered a full range of online banking services for both personal and business accounts and has a Mobile Banking application. In early 2024, the Bank launched a new online and mobile banking digital platform as the Bank seeks to further modernize its deposit offerings to its customers. Deposit services associated with this digital platform are available and marketed outside of the Bank's immediate market area across the United States. This digital banking platform is predominantly focused on Certificates of Deposits and High Yield Savings Accounts. Other deposit services offered by the Bank within our Washington, D.C. metropolitan area market include cash management services, business sweep accounts, lockbox, remote deposit capture, account reconciliation services, merchant card services, safe deposit boxes and Automated Clearing House origination. After-hours depositories and automated teller machine ("ATM") service are also available.
The Company and Bank maintain portfolios of short term investments and investment securities consisting primarily of U.S. agency bonds and government sponsored enterprise mortgage-backed securities, municipal bonds and corporate bonds. The Bank also owns equity investments related to membership in the Federal Reserve and the

Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta ("FHLB"). The Company’s securities also include equity investments in the form of common stock of two local banking companies. These equity investments are categorized as Other Assets and not accounted for in the Fixed Income Securities tables. The investment securities portfolio provides the following objectives: capital preservation, liquidity management, additional income to the Company and Bank in the form of interest, collateral to facilitate borrowing arrangements and assistance with meeting interest rate risk management objectives. The current Investment Policy primarily limits the Bank to investments of high quality U.S. Treasury securities, U.S. agency securities, government sponsored enterprise MBS and high grade municipal and corporate securities, with certain exceptions for the purchase of BBB- or non-rated subordinated debentures of U.S. regulated banks following an analysis of credit worthiness. High risk investments, including private label collateralized mortgage obligations rated AA and below or municipal or corporate bonds rated BBB and below, and non-traditional investments are prohibited. Investment maturities are generally limited to ten to fifteen years, except as specifically approved by the Asset Liability Committee ("ALCO") and mortgage-backed pass-through securities, which may have final stated maturities of 30 years, with average lives generally not to exceed eight years.
The Company and Bank have formalized an asset and liability management process and have a standing ALCO consisting of senior management overseen by the Board. The ALCO operates under established policies and practices and a Committee Charter, which practices are updated and re-approved annually. A typical ALCO meeting includes discussion of current economic conditions and balance sheet and other strategies, including interest rate trends and the current balance sheet and earnings position, comparisons to budget, cash flow estimates, liquidity positions, liquidity stress tests, and funding alternatives as necessary, interest rate risk position (monthly), including derivative positions, capital positions of the Company and Bank, reviews (including independent reviews) of the investment portfolio of the Bank and Company and the approval of investment transactions. Additionally, ALCO meetings may include reports and analysis of outside firms to enhance the Committee’s knowledge and understanding of various financial matters. Various other bank employees attend monthly committee meetings to build their understanding of all financial matters. A weekly conference call is scheduled to bring added attention primarily to shorter term cash flow estimates and interest rate matters.
The development of the Company’s customer base has benefited from building full relationships that include deposit balances, loan balances and noninterest revenue sources. The Bank has placed enhanced reliance on proactively designed officer calling programs and lender teams, active participation in business organizations, and enhanced referral programs.
Internet Access to Company Documents. The Company provides access to its Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") filings through its web site at www.eaglebankcorp.com. After accessing the web site, the filings are available upon selecting "Investor Relations/SEC Filings/Documents." Reports available include the annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and all amendments to those reports as soon as reasonably practicable after the reports are electronically filed with or furnished to the SEC. Further, the SEC maintains an Internet site that contains reports, proxy and information statements, and other information regarding issuers that file electronically with the SEC at http://www.sec.gov.
Market Area
The primary market area of the Bank is the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. With a population of 6.5 million and projected annualized growth rate of 0.55% through 2031, the region is the 6th largest metropolitan area in the U.S. (U.S. Census Bureau 2024). Total employment in the region is approximately 3.4 million per the 2026 Bureau of Labor Statistics report. The unemployment rate has increased since 2024. As of November 30, 2025 and 2024, the region had a 4.1% and 3.2% unemployment rate, respectively. The Washington, D.C. metropolitan area contains a substantial federal workforce, as well as a variety of support industries that employ professionals such as attorneys, lobbyists, government contractors, real estate developers and investors, non-profit organizations and consultants. The Gross Regional Product for the metropolitan area in 2023 (latest data available) was reported at $714.7 billion, per the Federal Reserve Economic Data. This figure can be heavily attributed to the federal government, but other significant sectors include professional and business services, education, healthcare, leisure and hospitality. The region also has a very active non-profit sector including trade associations, colleges, universities and major hospitals. Transportation congestion and federal government spending and employment levels remain threats to future economic development and quality of life in the area.
Effective July 1, 2015, the Bank entered into a multi-faceted support agreement with George Mason University ("George Mason"), the Commonwealth of Virginia’s largest public research university. The agreement provides for significant educational support, and a strategic alliance including the Bank obtaining the naming rights to a multi-purpose sports and entertainment venue formerly known as the Patriot Center, now known as "EagleBank Arena" in Fairfax, Virginia for up to a 20-year term. Under the agreement, the Bank pays George Mason an annual fee to be used for scholarships, internships, overall educational, athletic support and beautification efforts.

Competition
The Bank faces significant competition in originating and retaining loans and attracting deposits as the Washington, D.C. market area has a high concentration of large and regional banks based outside the area, one large locally based bank that operates nationwide, numerous community banks and several large credit unions. Although some consolidation has occurred in the market in the past few years, the Bank continues to compete with other community banks, savings and loan associations, credit unions and finance companies, as well as other kinds of financial institutions and enterprises, such as securities firms, insurance companies, savings associations, private lenders and nontraditional competitors such as fintech companies and internet-based lenders, depositories and payment systems.
The Bank’s most direct competition for deposits comes from large and regional banks based outside the Washington, D.C. market area, all of which have substantially greater financial resources than the Bank. Among the advantages that many of these large institutions have over the Bank are their ability to finance extensive advertising campaigns, maintain extensive branch networks, make larger technology investments and to directly offer certain services, such as international banking and trust services, which are not offered directly by the Bank. In addition, following the banking sector stress of March 2023, some large banks had advantages in sourcing deposits due to the perceived stability of larger banks.
The Bank faces direct competition for loans from each of these institutions described above as well as from on-line lenders and other loan origination firms. Further, the greater capitalization of the larger institutions headquartered out-of-state allows for higher lending limits than the Bank, although we believe the Bank’s current lending limit is sufficient for our business and able to accommodate the credit needs of most businesses in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, which distinguishes it from most community banks in the market area. Some of these competitors have other advantages, such as tax exemption in the case of credit unions and, to some extent, lesser regulation in the case of finance companies and many nontraditional competitors.
Under current law, unlimited interstate de novo branching is available to all state and federally chartered banks.

We provide pay levels and pay opportunities that are designed to be internally fair, externally competitive and cost-effective. To determine competitive market compensation levels, we use market surveys that report salary data of companies with similar positions, asset size and geographical location. To further align base pay with experience and individual performance, we annually review our salary structure and ranges to keep pace with changes in the marketplace. With the support of independent third-party experts in this field, we review the compensation of employees and conduct a pay equity analysis as part of our efforts to ensure consistent pay practices.
Employee Engagement
We regularly collect feedback to better understand and improve the employee experience and identify opportunities to continually strengthen our culture. We host periodic all-employee conference calls to disseminate information and to respond to employee questions. In May 2025, we introduced an Enterprise Engagement Council and sub-councils for each location. These Councils provide an assortment of employee engagement and recognition events.
Learning and Development
We invest in the growth and development of our employees by providing a multi-dimensional approach to learning that is designed to empower, intellectually grow and professionally develop our colleagues. Our employees receive continuing education courses that are relevant to the banking industry and their job function. We also offer leadership and customer service training. These resources help to provide employees with the skills they need to achieve their career goals, build management skills and become leaders within our Company. Employees have access to more than 23,000 on-demand learning solutions to help them learn new skills and advance in their career as well as certificate programs built around specific job roles. We also provide tuition reimbursement to help employees develop their skills and enhance their performance.
Regulation
Our business and operations are subject to extensive federal and state governmental regulation and supervision. The following is a brief summary of certain statutes and rules and regulations that affect or may affect us. This summary is not intended to be an exhaustive description of the statutes or regulations applicable to our business. Supervision, regulation, and examination of the Company by the regulatory agencies are intended primarily for the protection of depositors and the Deposit Insurance Fund ("DIF"), rather than our shareholders or other investors.
The Company. The Company is a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended ("BHC Act") and is subject to regulation and supervision by the FRB. The BHC Act and other federal laws subject bank holding companies to restrictions on the types of activities in which they may engage, and to a range of supervisory requirements and actions, including regulatory enforcement actions for violations of laws and regulations and unsafe and unsound banking practices. As a bank holding company, the Company is required to file with the FRB an annual report and such other additional information as the FRB may require pursuant to the BHC Act. The FRB may also examine the Company and each of its subsidiaries. The Company is subject to risk-based capital requirements adopted by the FRB, which are substantially identical to those applicable to the Bank, and which are described below.
The BHC Act requires approval of the FRB for, among other things, a bank holding company’s direct or indirect acquisition of control of more than five percent (5%) of the voting shares, or substantially all the assets, of any bank or the merger or consolidation by a bank holding company with another bank holding company. The BHC Act also generally permits the acquisition by a bank holding company of control, or substantially all of the assets, of any bank located in a state other than the home state of the bank holding company, except where the bank has not been in existence for the minimum period of time required by state law; but if the bank is at least 5 years old, the FRB may approve the acquisition.
With certain limited exceptions, a bank holding company is prohibited from acquiring control of any voting shares of any company that is not a bank or bank holding company and from engaging directly or indirectly in any activity other than banking or managing or controlling banks or furnishing services to or performing services for its authorized subsidiaries. A bank holding company may, however, engage in, or acquire an interest in a company that engages in, activities which the FRB has determined by order or regulation to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be properly incident thereto. In making such a determination, the FRB is required to consider whether the performance of such activities can reasonably be expected to produce benefits to the public, such as convenience, increased competition or gains in efficiency, which outweigh possible adverse effects, such as undue concentration of resources, decreased or unfair competition, conflicts of interest or unsound banking practices. Some of the activities that the FRB has determined by regulation to be closely related to banking include making or servicing loans, performing certain data processing services, acting as a fiduciary or investment or financial advisor and making investments in corporations or projects designed primarily to promote community welfare. The FRB may order a bank holding company or its subsidiaries to terminate any of these activities or to

terminate its ownership or control of any subsidiary when it has reasonable cause to believe that the bank holding company’s continued ownership, activity or control constitutes a serious risk to the financial safety, soundness or stability of it or any of its bank subsidiaries.
The Gramm Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 ("GLB Act") allows a bank holding company satisfying criteria related to its and its bank subsidiaries' status as well capitalized and well managed and the bank's under the Community Reinvestment Act to certify its status as a financial holding company, which would allow such company to engage in activities that are financial in nature, that are incidental to such activities or are complementary to such activities. The GLB Act enumerates certain activities that are deemed financial in nature, such as underwriting insurance or acting as an insurance principal, agent or broker, underwriting, dealing in or making markets in securities and engaging in merchant banking under certain restrictions. It also authorizes the FRB to determine by regulation what other activities are financial in nature or incidental or complementary thereto. The Company has not elected financial holding company status.
Federal Reserve policy and regulation and the Federal Deposit Insurance Act ("FDIA") require a bank holding company to serve as a source of financial and managerial strength to its bank subsidiaries. As a result of a bank holding company's source of strength obligation, a bank holding company may be required to provide funds to a bank subsidiary in the form of subordinated capital or other instruments which qualify as capital under bank regulatory rules, including at times that the bank holding company might otherwise determine not to provide support. Any loans from the holding company to such subsidiary banks likely would be unsecured and subordinated to such bank’s depositors and perhaps to other creditors of the bank. If a bank holding company commits to a U.S. federal banking agency that it will maintain the capital of its bank subsidiary, whether in response to the source-of-strength authority or other regulatory measures, that commitment will be assumed by the bankruptcy trustee for the bank holding company if it commences bankruptcy proceedings, and the bank will be entitled to priority payment in respect of that commitment, ahead of other creditors of the bank holding company. In addition, where a bank holding company has more than one FDIC-insured bank or thrift subsidiary, each of the bank holding company's subsidiary FDIC-insured depository institutions is responsible for losses to the FDIC as a result of an affiliated depository institution's failure.
Share Repurchases. A bank holding company is generally required to give the FRB prior written notice of any purchase or redemption of its own then outstanding common stock if the gross consideration for the purchase or redemption, when combined with the net consideration paid for all such purchases or redemptions during the preceding 12 months, is equal to 10% or more of the company's consolidated net worth. The FRB may disapprove such a purchase or redemption if it determines that the proposal would constitute an unsafe and unsound practice or would violate any law, regulation, FRB order or directive or any condition imposed by, or written agreement with, the FRB. The FRB has adopted an exception to this approval requirement for well-capitalized bank holding companies that meet certain conditions. In addition, in certain circumstances a bank holding company’s repurchases of its common stock are subject to prior notice or supervisory non-objection under policies or supervisory expectations of the FRB. Redemptions of equity in the form of preferred stock are generally subject to a prior approval requirement, and the capital conservation buffer requirement can also restrict the Company’s ability to engage in repurchases of its regulatory capital instruments as described below under "Capital Adequacy."
As a Maryland corporation, the Company is subject to additional requirements, limitations and restrictions. For example, state law restrictions include limitations and restrictions relating to indemnification of directors, distributions to shareholders, transactions involving directors, officers or interested shareholders, maintenance of books, records, minutes, borrowing and the observance of corporate formalities.
The Bank. The Bank is a Maryland chartered commercial bank and a member of the Federal Reserve and a state member bank, whose accounts are insured by the Deposit Insurance Fund ("DIF") of the FDIC up to the maximum legal limits of the FDIC. The Bank is subject to regulation, supervision and regular examination by the State of Maryland Office of Financial Regulation and the FRB. The regulations of these various agencies govern most aspects of the Bank’s business, including required reserves against deposits, loans, investments, mergers and acquisitions, borrowing, dividends and location and number of branch offices. As an institution with over $10 billion in total consolidated assets, the Bank became subject to increased regulation and supervision by the FRB and the FDIC in 2022. As of December 31, 2025, our total assets were $10.5 billion. Therefore, the Bank is subject to ongoing (rather than periodic) supervision, targeted examinations, more frequent loan portfolio reviews and other enhanced supervision. In particular, the FRB and the FDIC focus on the soundness of the Bank’s risk management framework and capabilities, given the greater complexity and impact of the Bank’s risks as a larger institution. The laws and regulations governing the Bank generally have been promulgated to protect depositors and the DIF and not for the purpose of protecting shareholders or other investors.

Commercial banks, savings and loan associations and credit unions are generally able to engage in interstate banking or acquisition activities. As a result, banks in the Washington, D.C. Metropolitan area can, subject to limited restrictions, acquire or merge with a bank in another jurisdiction and can branch de novo in any jurisdiction.
Subsidiary banks of a bank holding company are subject to certain restrictions imposed by the Federal Reserve Act on any extensions of credit to the bank holding company or any of its subsidiaries or investments in the stock or other securities thereof, and on the taking of such stock or securities as collateral for loans to any borrower. Further, a bank holding company and any subsidiary bank are prohibited from engaging in certain tie in arrangements in connection with the extension of credit. A subsidiary bank may not extend credit, lease or sell property or furnish any services or fix or vary the consideration for any of the foregoing on the condition that: (i) the customer obtain or provide some additional credit, property or services from or to such bank other than a loan, discount, deposit or trust service; (ii) the customer obtain or provide some additional credit, property or service from or to the Company or any other subsidiary of the Company; or (iii) the customer not obtain some other credit, property or service from competitors, except for reasonable requirements to assure the soundness of credit extended.
Branching and Interstate Banking. The federal banking agencies are authorized to approve interstate bank merger transactions without regard to whether such transaction is prohibited by the law of any state, unless the home state of one of the banks has opted out of the interstate bank merger provisions of the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act of 1994 ("Riegle-Neal Act") by adopting a law after the date of enactment of the Riegle-Neal Act and prior to June 1, 1997, which applies equally to all out-of-state banks and expressly prohibits merger transactions involving out-of-state banks. Interstate acquisitions of branches are permitted only if the law of the state in which the branch is located permits such acquisitions. Such interstate bank mergers and branch acquisitions are also subject to the nationwide and statewide insured deposit concentration limitations described in the Riegle-Neal Act. Washington, D.C., Maryland and Virginia have each enacted laws that permit interstate acquisitions of banks and bank branches. The Dodd-Frank Act authorizes national and state banks to establish de novo branches in other states to the same extent as a bank chartered by that state would be permitted to branch.
Brokered Deposits. A "brokered deposit" is any deposit that is obtained from or through the mediation or assistance of a deposit broker. Deposit brokers may attract deposits from individuals and companies throughout the United States and internationally whose deposit decisions are based primarily on obtaining the highest interest rates. Banks that become less than "well-capitalized" under applicable regulatory capital requirements may be restricted in their ability to accept or renew, or prohibited from accepting or renewing, brokered deposits, and less than "well capitalized" banks also are subject to interest rate restrictions on deposits.
Bank Secrecy Act. Under the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act, commonly referred to as the "USA Patriot Act," financial institutions are subject to prohibitions against specified financial transactions and account relationships, as well as enhanced due diligence standards intended to detect and prevent the use of the United States financial system for money laundering and terrorist financing activities. The Bank Secrecy Act requires financial institutions, including banks, to establish anti-money laundering programs, including employee training and independent audit requirements, meet minimum standards specified by the act, follow minimum standards for customer identification and maintenance of customer identification records and regularly compare customer lists against lists of suspected terrorists, terrorist organizations and money launderers.
Office of Foreign Assets Control. The United States has imposed economic sanctions that affect transactions with designated foreign countries, foreign nationals and others, which are administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC"). The OFAC-administered sanctions targeting countries take many different forms. Generally, however, they contain one or more of the following elements: (i) restrictions on trade with or investment in a sanctioned country, including prohibitions against direct or indirect imports from and exports to a sanctioned country and prohibitions on a “U.S. person” engaging in financial transactions relating to making investments in, or providing investment-related advice or assistance to, a sanctioned country; and (ii) a blocking of assets in which the government or specially designated nationals of a sanctioned country have an interest by prohibiting transfers of property subject to U.S. jurisdiction (including property in the possession or control of U.S. persons). Blocked assets (e.g., property and bank deposits) cannot be paid out, withdrawn, set off or transferred in any manner without a license from OFAC. Failure to comply with these sanctions could have serious legal and reputational consequences.
Capital Adequacy. The FRB and the other federal banking agencies have adopted risk-based and leverage capital adequacy requirements, pursuant to which they assess the adequacy of capital in examining and supervising banks and bank holding companies and in analyzing bank regulatory applications. Risk-based capital requirements assign different capital requirements to various classes of assets and off-balance sheet items based on standardized supervisory measures of risk. The Dodd-Frank Act additionally requires capital requirements to be counter cyclical

so that the required amount of capital increases in times of economic expansion and decreases in times of economic contraction, consistent with safety and soundness.
The federal banking agencies have adopted rules, referred to as the Basel III Rules, to implement the framework for strengthening international capital and liquidity regulation adopted by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, or Basel III. The Basel III framework, among other things, (i) introduced the concept of common equity tier one capital ("CET1"); (ii) required that most adjustments to regulatory capital measures be made to CET1 and not to the other components of capital; (iii) expanded the scope of the adjustments to capital that may be made as compared to prior regulations; and (iv) specified that Tier 1 capital consists of CET1 and "Additional Tier 1 capital" instruments meeting specified requirements. Under the Basel III Rules, repurchase or redemption of Additional Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital instruments requires prior approval of the appropriate federal banking agency, which in our case is the FRB for both the Company and the Bank. Prior approval to repurchase or redeem CET1 instruments is only required under the Basel III Rules to the extent that a separate legal or regulatory requirement for prior approval applies, such as the restrictions described under "Share Repurchases" above.
The Basel III Rules require institutions to maintain: (i) a minimum ratio of CET1 to risk-weighted assets of 4.5% plus a "capital conservation buffer" of 2.5% for an overall effective requirement of 7.0%; (ii) a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 6.0% plus the capital conservation buffer for an overall effective requirement of 8.5%; (iii) a minimum ratio of Total (Tier 1 plus Tier 2) capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0% plus the capital conservation buffer for an overall effective requirement of 10.5%; and (iv) a minimum leverage ratio of 4%, calculated as the ratio of Tier 1 capital to balance sheet exposures plus certain off-balance sheet exposures (computed as the average of the month-end ratios each month during a calendar quarter).
Banking institutions with a risk-based ratio above the minimum but below the capital conservation buffer face constraints on their ability to pay dividends, effect equity repurchases and pay discretionary bonuses to executive officers, which constraints vary based on the amount of the shortfall, and the institution's "eligible retained income" (that is, the greater of (i) net income for the preceding four quarters, net of distributions and associated tax effects not reflected in net income, and (ii) average net income over the preceding four quarters).
The Basel III Rules provide for the manner of calculating risk-weighted assets, including the recognition of credit risk mitigation, such as financial collateral and a range of eligible guarantors. As discussed below, the Basel III Rules also integrate the capital requirements into the prompt corrective action provisions under Section 38 of the FDIA.
The capital ratios described above are the minimum levels that the federal banking agencies expect. Our state and federal regulators have the discretion to require us to maintain higher capital levels based upon our concentrations of loans, the risk of our lending or other activities, the performance of our loan and investment portfolios and other factors. Failure to maintain such higher capital in accordance with supervisory expectations could result in a lower composite regulatory rating, which would impact our deposit insurance premiums and could affect our ability to borrow and costs of borrowing and could result in additional or more severe enforcement actions. In respect of institutions with high concentrations of loans in areas deemed to be higher risk, or during periods of significant economic stress, regulators may require an institution to maintain a higher level of capital and/or to maintain more stringent risk management measures than those required by these regulations.
In December 2017, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision published the last version of the Basel III accord, generally referred to as "Basel III Endgame." On July 27, 2023, the federal banking regulators proposed revisions to the Basel III Rules to implement the Basel Committee’s 2017 standards and make other changes to the Basel III Rules. The revised capital requirements of the proposed rule would not apply to the Company or the Bank because they have less than $100 billion in total consolidated assets and trading assets and liabilities below the threshold for market risk requirements. The federal banking regulators have subsequently indicated that they expect to issue a revised proposal in 2026.
In 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued the current expected credit losses model ("CECL"). CECL requires financial institutions to estimate and establish a provision for expected credit losses over the lifetime of the asset, at the origination or the date of acquisition of the asset, as opposed to reserving for incurred or probable losses through the balance sheet date. Upon implementation, an institution recognized a one-time cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for credit losses ("ACL.") The federal banking regulators issued a final rule in March 2020 that provided banking organizations with an option to temporarily delay for two years the estimated impact of the adoption of the CECL methodology on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year phase-in period. The cumulative amount that is not recognized in regulatory capital was phased in at 25% per year beginning January 1, 2022. We elected to adopt the option provided in the March 2020 interim final rule, so our regulatory capital ratios prior to 2025 reflect this election to phase in the effects of CECL. 2025 regulatory capital ratios include the full impact from CECL now that the phase-in period has ended.

Prompt Corrective Action. Under Section 38 of the FDIA, each federal banking agency is required to implement a system of prompt corrective action for institutions that it regulates. The federal banking agencies have promulgated substantially similar regulations for this purpose. The following capital requirements currently apply to the Bank for purposes of Section 38.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Capital Category | | Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio | | Tier 1 Risk-Based Capital Ratio | | Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio | | Leverage Ratio | | Tangible Equity to Assets |
| Well Capitalized | | 10% or greater | | 8% or greater | | 6.5% or greater | | 5% or greater | | N/A |
| Adequately Capitalized | | 8% or greater | | 6% or greater | | 4.5% or greater | | 4% or greater | | N/A |
| Undercapitalized | | Less than 8% | | Less than 6% | | Less than 4.5% | | Less than 4% | | N/A |
| Significantly Undercapitalized | | Less than 6% | | Less than 4% | | Less than 3% | | Less than 3% | | N/A |
| Critically Undercapitalized | | N/A | | N/A | | N/A | | N/A | | Less than 2% |
An institution generally must file a written capital restoration plan which meets specified requirements with the appropriate federal banking agency within 45 days of the date the institution receives notice or is deemed to have notice that it is undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized or critically undercapitalized. The appropriate federal banking agency must provide the institution with written notice of approval or disapproval within 60 days after receiving a capital restoration plan, subject to extensions by the applicable agency.
An institution that is required to submit a capital restoration plan must concurrently submit a performance guaranty by each company that controls the institution. Such guaranty shall be limited to the lesser of (i) an amount equal to 5.0% of the institution’s total assets at the time the institution was notified or deemed to have notice that it was undercapitalized or (ii) the amount necessary at such time to restore the relevant capital measures of the institution to the levels required for the institution to be classified as adequately capitalized. Such a guaranty shall expire after the appropriate federal banking agency notifies the institution that it has remained adequately capitalized for four consecutive calendar quarters. An institution that fails to submit a written capital restoration plan within the requisite period, including any required performance guaranty, or fails in any material respect to implement a capital restoration plan, shall be subject to the restrictions in Section 38 of the FDIA that are applicable to significantly undercapitalized institutions.
A "critically undercapitalized institution" is required to be placed in conservatorship or receivership within 90 days, unless the FDIC formally determines that forbearance from such action would better protect the DIF. Unless the FDIC or other appropriate federal banking agency makes specific further findings and certifies that the institution is viable and is not expected to fail, an institution that remains critically undercapitalized during the fourth calendar quarter after the date it became critically undercapitalized must be placed in receivership. The general rule is that the FDIC will be appointed as receiver within 90 days after an institution becomes critically undercapitalized unless good cause is shown and an extension is agreed to by the federal regulators. In general, good cause requires that adequate capital has been raised and is imminently available for infusion into the institution, except for certain technical requirements, which may delay the infusion for a period of time beyond the 90 day time period.
Immediately upon becoming undercapitalized, an institution shall become subject to the provisions of Section 38 of the FDIA, which (i) restrict payment of capital distributions and management fees; (ii) require that the appropriate federal banking agency monitor the condition of the institution and its efforts to restore its capital; (iii) require submission of a capital restoration plan; (iv) restrict the growth of the institution’s assets; and (v) require prior approval of certain expansion proposals. The appropriate federal banking agency for an undercapitalized institution also may take any number of discretionary supervisory actions if the agency determines that any of these actions is necessary to resolve the problems of the institution at the least possible long-term cost to the DIF, subject in certain cases to specified procedures. These discretionary supervisory actions include: requiring the institution to raise additional capital; restricting transactions with affiliates; requiring divestiture of the institution or the sale of the institution to a willing purchaser; and any other supervisory action that the agency deems appropriate. These and additional mandatory and permissive supervisory actions may be taken with respect to significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized institutions.
Additionally, under Section 11(c)(5) of the FDIA, a conservator or receiver may be appointed for an institution where: (i) an institution’s obligations exceed its assets; (ii) there is substantial dissipation of the institution’s assets or earnings as a result of any violation of law or any unsafe or unsound practice; (iii) the institution is in an unsafe or unsound condition; (iv) there is a willful violation of a cease-and-desist order; (v) the institution is unable to pay its

| | | | | | | | |

| | |
obligations in the ordinary course of business; (vi) losses or threatened losses deplete all or substantially all of an institution’s capital, and there is no reasonable prospect of becoming "adequately capitalized" without assistance; (vii) there is any violation of law or unsafe or unsound practice or condition that is likely to cause insolvency or substantial dissipation of assets or earnings, weaken the institution’s condition or otherwise seriously prejudice the interests of depositors or the insurance fund; (viii) an institution ceases to be insured; (ix) the institution is undercapitalized and has no reasonable prospect that it will become adequately capitalized, fails to become adequately capitalized when required to do so or fails to submit or materially implement a capital restoration plan; or (x) the institution is critically undercapitalized or otherwise has substantially insufficient capital.
Regulatory Enforcement Authority. Federal banking law grants substantial enforcement powers to the federal banking agencies. This enforcement authority includes, among other things, the ability to assess civil money penalties, to issue cease-and-desist or removal orders and to initiate injunctive actions against banking organizations and institution-affiliated parties. In general, these enforcement actions may be initiated for violations of laws and regulations and unsafe or unsound practices. Other actions or inactions may provide the basis for enforcement action, including misleading or untimely reports filed with regulatory authorities. In October 2025, the FDIC and OCC issued a proposed rule that would define the term “unsafe or unsound practice” for purposes of their enforcement powers under the FDIA. The proposed definition would focus on whether the practice is likely to materially harm, or already has materially harmed, the financial condition of an institution. However, the FRB has not issued a similar proposal.
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. The Dodd-Frank Act created the CFPB, an independent federal agency with broad rulemaking, supervisory and enforcement powers under various federal consumer financial protection laws, including the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, Truth in Lending Act, Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, Fair Credit Reporting Act, Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the consumer financial privacy provisions of the GLB Act and certain other statutes. The CFPB has examination and primary enforcement authority with respect to depository institutions with over $10 billion in assets. The CFPB also has authority to prevent unfair, deceptive or abusive practices in connection with the offering of consumer financial products. The Dodd-Frank Act permits states to adopt consumer protection laws and standards that are more stringent than those adopted at the federal level and, in certain circumstances, permits state attorneys general to enforce compliance with both the state and federal laws and regulations.
The Bank is subject to periodic examinations by the CFPB focused on compliance with consumer laws and regulations, as a banking organization over $10 billion in total assets.
In October 2024, the CFPB finalized a new rule that requires a provider of payment accounts or products, such as a bank, to make data available to consumers upon request regarding the products or services they obtain from the provider. Any such data provider is also required to make such data available to third parties, with the consumer’s express authorization and through an interface that satisfies formatting, performance and security standards, for the purpose of such third parties providing the consumer with financial products or services requested by the consumer. Data required to be made available under the rule includes transaction information, account balance, account and routing numbers, terms and conditions, upcoming bill information, and certain account verification data. The rule is intended to give consumers control over their financial data, including with whom it is shared, and encourage competition in the provision of consumer financial products or services. For banks with at least $10 billion but less than $250 billion in total assets, compliance with the rule’s requirements is required by April 1, 2027. The rule is the subject of litigation, which is currently stayed while the CFPB considers revisions to the rule.
During 2025, the CFPB reduced its staff by over 80%. The reduction in force is the subject of litigation, and the staffing cuts are currently stayed pending the federal circuit court’s en banc rehearing of the case. The impact of these developments on banking organizations subject to CFPB regulation and supervision, including the Bank, is uncertain. States and state attorneys general may increase regulatory, investigative and enforcement activity with respect to consumer protection, in response to changes in regulation, supervision and enforcement of consumer protection laws by federal regulators.
Fair and Responsible Banking. Banks and other financial institutions are subject to numerous laws and regulations intended to promote fair and responsible banking and prohibit unlawful discrimination and unfair, deceptive or abusive practices in banking. These laws include, among others, the Dodd-Frank Act, Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and the Fair Housing Act. Many states and local jurisdictions have consumer protection laws analogous, and in addition, to those listed above. These federal, state and local laws regulate the manner in which financial institutions deal with customers taking deposits, making loans or conducting other types of transactions. Failure to comply with these laws and regulations could give rise to regulatory sanctions and actions by the U.S. Department of Justice and state attorneys general.

| | |
In addition, in recent years, certain states have enacted, or have proposed to enact, statutes, regulations or policies that prohibit financial institutions from denying or canceling products or services to a person or business, or otherwise discriminating against a person or business in making available products or services, on the basis of certain social or political factors or other activities. In August 2025, President Trump signed Executive Order 14331, “Guaranteeing Fair Banking Access for All Americans,” which states that it is the policy of the United States that no American should be denied access to financial services because of their constitutionally or statutorily protected beliefs, affiliations or political views. The Executive Order directs the U.S. Treasury Secretary and federal banking regulators to address politicized or unlawful debanking activities.
Financial Privacy and Cybersecurity. Under the Federal Right to Privacy Act of 1978 and the GLB Act, which imposes requirements regarding the safeguarding and confidentiality of consumer financial records and prescribes procedures for complying with administrative subpoenas of financial records, financial institutions are required to disclose their policies for collecting and protecting confidential information. Consumers generally may prevent financial institutions from sharing personal financial information with nonaffiliated third parties except for third parties that market the institutions’ own products and services. Additionally, financial institutions generally may not disclose consumer account numbers to any nonaffiliated third party for use in telemarketing, direct mail marketing or other marketing through electronic mail to consumers.
The federal banking regulators issue guidance regarding cybersecurity intended to enhance cyber risk management standards among financial institutions. A financial institution is expected to establish multiple lines of defense and to ensure their risk management processes address the risk posed by potential threats to the institution. A financial institution’s management is expected to maintain sufficient processes to effectively respond and recover the institution’s operations after a cyberattack. A financial institution is also expected to develop appropriate processes to enable recovery of data and business operations if a critical service provider of the institution falls victim to this type of cyberattack. The Bank has adopted an Information Security Policy and Program that has been approved by the Board and reviewed by its regulators.
In November 2021, the federal bank regulatory agencies issued a final rule regarding notification requirements for banking organizations related to significant computer security incidents. Under the final rule, a bank holding company, such as the Company, and a state member bank, such as the Bank, would be required to notify the Federal Reserve within 36 hours of any incident that has materially disrupted or degraded, or is reasonably likely to materially disrupt or degrade, the banking organization’s ability to deliver services to a material portion of its customer base, jeopardize the viability of key operations of the banking organization, or pose a threat to the financial stability of the United States.
In July 2023, the SEC issued a final rule that requires registrants, such as the Company, to (i) report material cybersecurity incidents on Form 8-K within four business days of their being deemed material, (ii) disclose cybersecurity policies and procedures and governance practices, including at the board and management levels, in Form 10-K and (iii) present the disclosures in inline XBRL.
Community Reinvestment Act. The Community Reinvestment Act ("CRA") requires that, in connection with examinations of insured depository institutions within their respective jurisdictions, the federal banking agencies evaluate the record of each financial institution in meeting the needs of its local community, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods. The Bank’s record of performance under the CRA is publicly available. A bank’s CRA performance is also considered in evaluating applications seeking approval for mergers, acquisitions and new offices or facilities. Failure to adequately meet these criteria could result in additional requirements and limitations being imposed on the Bank. Additionally, we must publicly disclose the terms of certain CRA-related agreements.
Concentration and Risk Guidance. The federal banking regulatory agencies promulgated joint interagency guidance regarding material direct and indirect asset and funding concentrations. The guidance defines a concentration as any of the following: (i) asset concentrations of 25% or more of Total Capital (loan related) or Tier 1 Capital (non-loan related) by individual borrower, small interrelated group of individuals, single repayment source or individual project; (ii) asset concentrations of 100% or more of Total Capital (loan related) or Tier 1 Capital (non-loan related) by industry, product line, type of collateral or short-term obligations of one financial institution or affiliated group; (iii) funding concentrations from a single source representing 10% or more of Total Assets; or (iv) potentially volatile funding sources that when combined represent 25% or more of Total Assets (these sources may include brokered, large, high-rate, uninsured, internet-listing-service deposits, Federal funds purchased or other potentially volatile deposits or borrowings). If a concentration is present, management must employ heightened risk management practices including board and management oversight and strategic planning, development of underwriting standards, risk assessment and monitoring through market analysis and stress testing, third party review and increasing capital requirements.
Additionally, the federal bank regulatory agencies have issued guidance governing financial institutions with concentrations in commercial real estate lending. The guidance provides that institutions that have (i) total reported

| | | | | | | | |

loans for construction, land development and other land which represent 100% or more of an institution’s total risk-based capital; or (ii) total reported commercial real estate loans, excluding loans secured by owner occupied commercial real estate, representing 300% or more of the institution’s total risk-based capital and the institution’s commercial real estate loan portfolio has increased 50% or more during the prior 36 months, are identified as having potential commercial real estate concentration risk. As of December 31, 2025, as per the regulatory guidance, commercial real estate loans (including construction, land and land development loans) represented 336.6% of consolidated risk based capital; however, growth in that segment over the past 36 months at (9.1)% did not exceed the 50% threshold laid out in the regulatory guidance. Construction, land and land development loans represented 92.09% of consolidated risk based capital as of December 31, 2025. Institutions that are deemed to have concentrations in commercial real estate lending are expected to employ heightened levels of risk management with respect to their commercial real estate portfolios, and may be required to hold higher levels of capital.
FDIC Insurance Premiums. Deposits at the Bank are insured up to applicable limits by the DIF of the FDIC and the Bank is subject to deposit insurance assessments to maintain the DIF. Deposit insurance assessments are based on average total assets minus average tangible equity. For larger institutions, such as the Bank, the FDIC uses a performance score and a loss-severity score to calculate an initial assessment rate. In calculating these scores, the FDIC uses a bank’s capital level and supervisory ratings and certain financial measures to assess an institution’s ability to withstand asset-related stress and funding-related stress. The FDIC has the ability to make discretionary adjustments to the total score based upon significant risk factors that are not adequately captured in the calculations.
Under the FDIA, the FDIC may terminate deposit insurance upon a finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe and unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated any applicable law, regulation, rule, order or condition imposed by the FDIC. In addition, the FDIC is authorized to conduct examinations of and require reporting by FDIC-insured institutions.
The Dodd-Frank Act permanently increased the maximum deposit insurance amount for banks, savings institutions and credit unions to $250 thousand per depositor. The Dodd-Frank Act also broadened the base for calculating FDIC insurance assessments. Assessments are now based on a financial institution’s average consolidated total assets less tangible equity capital. The Dodd-Frank Act required the FDIC to increase the reserve ratio of the DIF to 1.35% of insured deposits and eliminated the requirement that the FDIC pay dividends to insured depository institutions when the reserve ratio exceeds certain thresholds.
Affiliate Transactions. The Company and Bank are separate and distinct legal entities, and the Company is an affiliate of the Bank. Federal laws strictly limit the ability of banks to engage in certain transactions with their affiliates. Transactions deemed to be a "covered transaction" under Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act between a bank and an affiliate are limited to 10% of the bank's capital and surplus and, with respect to all affiliates, to an aggregate of 20% of the bank's capital and surplus. Further, covered transactions that are loans and extensions of credit generally are required to be secured by eligible collateral in specified amounts. Federal law also requires that covered transactions and certain other transactions listed in Section 23B of the Federal Reserve Act between a bank and its affiliates be on terms as favorable to the bank as transactions with non-affiliates.
Incentive Compensation. The FRB reviews, as part of the regular, risk-focused examination process, the incentive compensation arrangements of banking organizations, such as the Company, that are not "large, complex banking organizations." These reviews are tailored to each organization based on the scope and complexity of the organization’s activities and the prevalence of incentive compensation arrangements. The findings of the supervisory initiatives are included in reports of examination. Deficiencies are incorporated into the organization’s supervisory ratings, which can affect the organization’s ability to make acquisitions and take other actions. Enforcement actions may be taken against a banking organization if its incentive compensation arrangements, or related risk management control or governance processes, pose a risk to the organization’s safety and soundness and the organization is not taking prompt and effective measures to correct the deficiencies.
Under FRB guidance, which covers all employees that have the ability to materially affect the risk profile of an organization, either individually or as part of a group, a banking organization’s incentive compensation arrangements should (i) provide incentives that appropriately balance risk and financial results in a manner that does not encourage employees to expose their organizations to imprudent risk, (ii) be compatible with effective internal controls and risk management and (iii) be supported by strong corporate governance, including active and effective oversight by the organization’s board of directors.
In 2016, the U.S. financial regulators, including the FRB and the SEC, proposed revised rules on incentive-based payment arrangements at specified regulated entities having at least $1 billion in total assets (including the Company and the Bank), but these proposed rules have not been finalized.

In October 2022, the SEC adopted a final rule directing national securities exchanges and associations, including NASDAQ, to require policies mandating the recovery or "clawback" of excess incentive-based compensation earned by a current or former executive officer during the three fiscal years preceding a required accounting restatement, including to correct an error that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period. The excess compensation would be based on the amount the executive officer would have received had the incentive-based compensation been determined using the restated financials. NASDAQ’s listing standards pursuant to the SEC’s rule became effective October 2, 2023. The Company’s clawback policy adopted in accordance with these listing standards is included as Exhibit 97.1.
Climate-Related and ESG Developments. In recent years, certain lawmakers and regulators in and outside of the United States have increased their focus on financial institutions’ and other companies’ risk oversight, disclosures and practices in connection with climate change and other environmental, social and governance ("ESG") matters. Several states have enacted or proposed statutes or regulations addressing climate change and other ESG issues. For example, California enacted climate-related disclosure laws requiring certain companies doing business in California to make certain climate-related disclosures, including but not limited to greenhouse gas emissions data and climate-related risks.
Future Legislation and Regulation
In addition to the discussion above, other new proposals for legislation continue to be introduced in the Congress that could further substantially increase regulation of the bank and non-bank financial services industries and impose restrictions on the operations and general ability of firms within the industry to conduct business consistent with historical practices. Federal and state regulatory agencies also frequently adopt changes to their regulations or change the manner in which existing regulations are applied. Certain aspects of current or proposed regulatory or legislative changes to laws applicable to the financial industry, if enacted or adopted, may impact the profitability of our business activities, require more oversight or change certain of our business practices, including the ability to offer new products, obtain financing, attract deposits, make loans and achieve satisfactory interest spreads and could expose the Company to additional costs, including increased compliance costs. These changes also may require significant management attention and resources to make any necessary changes to operations to comply and could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
An investment in our securities involves risks. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully read and consider the risk factors described below as well as the other information included in this report and other documents we file with the SEC, as the same may be updated from time to time. Any of these risks, if they actually occur, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect us. In any such case, you could lose all or a portion of your original investment.
Risks Related to Our Business and Economic Conditions
Our business and results of operations may be adversely affected by the financial markets, fiscal, monetary, and regulatory policies and economic conditions. These factors could have a material adverse effect on our earnings, net interest margin, financial condition, growth, liquidity, and stock price.
General economic, political, social and health conditions affect financial markets, and therefore, our business. Fiscal and monetary policies have a direct and indirect impact on the level and volatility of interest rates, market liquidity, the availability and cost of capital and credit, and market conditions of financing. For example, in recent years, interest rates have varied substantially due to central banks’ responses to changing macroeconomic conditions.
Financial markets and the banking industry are affected by economic growth and its sustainability. Changes in economic growth may result in unexpected changes in gross domestic product ("GDP"), fluctuations or other significant changes in both debt and equity capital markets and currencies, liquidity of financial markets and the availability and cost of capital and credit. Changes in the size of the government workforce, actual or potential federal government shutdowns, and developments related to the U.S. federal debt ceiling may also have an economic impact or result in market volatility. Increased market volatility and changes in financial or capital market conditions may be further impacted by energy prices, commercial property values, residential property values, consumer spending, bankruptcies, employment levels, labor shortages, changes in immigration policy, tariffs and changes in trade policy, wage inflation and supply chain disruptions.

A significant portion of our loan portfolio consists of loans secured by commercial properties, the adverse performance of which could impact the credit quality of the loan portfolio and result in a negative impact to our financial condition or results of operations.
Economic weaknesses, sustained elevated inflation, challenging business conditions, the implementation or persistence of hybrid work arrangements and other changes in business operating practices, market disruptions, adverse economic or market events, rising interest or capitalization rates, declining asset prices, greater volatility in areas where we have concentrated credit risk or deterioration in real estate values or household incomes may cause us to experience a decrease in cash flow and higher credit losses in our portfolios or cause us to write down the value of certain assets. Certain adverse consequences of the pandemic, including lower office occupancy rates, continue to materially affect the businesses of certain segments of our customer base and of their customers, which impacts their creditworthiness, their ability to pay amounts owed to us and our ability to collect those amounts.
We may also experience continued and long-term negative impacts to our commercial credit exposure and an increase in credit losses within those industries, such as commercial real estate, that may be impacted by changes in consumer preferences or office occupancy rates. A large portion of our loan portfolio is related to real estate, with 80% consisting of commercial real estate and real estate construction secured by commercial real estate. As a result of actual or expected credit losses, we may downgrade loans, increase our allowance for credit losses and write down or charge off loans, any of which would negatively impact our results of operations. In addition, market conditions are likely to continue to affect the value of real estate and commercial assets. As a result, in the event of foreclosure, it is possible that we will be unable to sell the foreclosed property at a price that will allow us to recoup a significant portion of the delinquent loan.
A significant number of our commercial real estate loans are secured by office properties. Although there has been some momentum on return to office, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is still being felt due to the significant changes in working arrangements that have impacted and continue to impact the performance of some of the office properties within our commercial real estate portfolio. Hybrid work arrangements, flexible work schedules, open workplaces and teleconferencing have become increasingly common. These practices enable businesses to reduce their office space requirements. This, in turn, has resulted in a supply and demand imbalance especially in office properties. A continuation of the movement towards these practices over time could continue to further erode the overall demand for office space and, in turn, place continued downward pressure on occupancy, rental rates and property valuations, each of which could have an adverse effect on our borrowers, the office properties securing their loans, and our ability to collect the amounts owed to us.
Our calculation of our ACL relies on estimates and assumptions, resulting in the risk that our ACL may not cover actual future credit losses, which could result in an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
We use a credit reserving methodology known as the CECL methodology. The provision for credit losses represents management’s estimate of expected credit losses on our portfolio and is recorded in the ACL on our loan portfolio. Management utilizes a variety of inputs in the calculation of its estimate, including historical losses based on internal and peer data, economic conditions and trends, the value and adequacy of collateral, volume and mix of the portfolio, performance of the portfolio, and our internal loan processes. Historical loss data we use from a third-party service provider may not approximate our own historical loss experience.
Our ability to accurately forecast future losses under this methodology may be impaired by significant uncertainties:
•Uncertainties surrounding volatility in inflation and interest rates, which have disrupted financial markets and adversely affected commercial real estate and other sectors in the economy.
•Uncertainties related to the identification of the appropriate economic indicators.
•Uncertainties related to the data utilized to build models and draw assumptions.
•Uncertainties and limitations related to the different sources of data: internal data, peer data, market data, macroeconomic data, geopolitical data, etc.
•Uncertainties related to the need to make difficult and complex judgments that are often interrelated.
Additionally, the credit quality of our loan portfolio factors into our CECL estimate. Our ability to accurately forecast and react to future losses may be impaired by significant uncertainties which could result in loan losses and other exposures that exceed our allowance. If the models, estimates and assumptions we use to establish reserves or the judgments we make in extending credit prove inaccurate in predicting future events, we may experience losses in excess of our CECL provision. As economic conditions change, we may have to increase our allowance, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.

We are subject to operational risks in connection with our employees and our technology that may adversely impact us.
Operational risk is inherent in our business. We rely on business processes and branch activity that largely depend on people and technology, including access to information technology systems as well as information, applications, payment systems and other services provided by third parties. Operational risks that may have an adverse effect on our operations, include (i) risks related to our work productivity; (ii) increased spending on our business continuity efforts; (iii) increased strain on certain risk management practices, including, but not limited to, the effectiveness and accuracy of our models, given the potential lack of data inputs and comparable precedent; (iv) risks related to the effectiveness of our anti-money laundering and other compliance programs; (v) increased cybersecurity risk due to, among other things, the increased connectivity of third parties and electronic devices to our systems, hybrid work arrangements and new technologies, such as artificial intelligence; (vi) risks related to providing banking services through digital channels; and (vii) operational disruptions at our third-party service providers. Increased cyber risks in this context may include greater phishing, malware and other cybersecurity attacks, vulnerability to disruptions of our information technology infrastructure and telecommunications systems for remote operations, increased risk of unauthorized dissemination of confidential information, limited ability to restore the systems in the event of a systems failure or interruption, greater risk of a security breach resulting in destruction or misuse of sensitive, confidential, personal or proprietary information and potential impairment of our ability to perform critical functions, including wiring funds, all of which could expose us to risks of data or financial loss, litigation, reputational damage and liability and could seriously disrupt our operations and the operations of any impacted customers.
Our reliance on external service providers exposes us to operational risk that could adversely impact our business.
We rely on many outside service providers that support our day-to-day operations including data processing and electronic communications, real estate appraisal, loan servicers and local and federal government agencies, offices and courthouses. Any actions by these entities to limit the availability of and access to their services may impact our business. For example, a loan origination could be delayed due to the limited availability of real estate appraisers to evaluate the collateral. Loan closings could be delayed related to reductions in available staff in recording offices or the closing of courthouses, which slows the process for title work and mortgage and UCC filings. In addition, unintended operational disruptions, including cybersecurity incidents and coding errors, at our third-party service providers may adversely affect our ability to provide our products and services as usual.
Our inability to generate liquidity in a timely manner may adversely impact our ability to satisfy obligations associated with our financing, our operations and other components of our business.
Timely access to liquidity is essential to our business, and being able to meet obligations as they come due and pay deposits when they are withdrawn is critical to ongoing operations. If we are unable to meet our payment obligations on a daily basis, we may be subject to being placed into receivership, regardless of our capital levels. Our primary sources of liquidity consist of cash and cash balances due from correspondent banks, excess reserves at the Federal Reserve, loan repayments and other short-term investments, maturities and monetization of investment securities, cash provided by operating activities and new core deposits into the Bank. Our ability to obtain or liquidate these primary sources of liquidity may be impacted by adverse economic conditions resulting from dynamic, complex, and other foreseen and unforeseen inter-related factors and events in the economic environment. If we were to rely on sales proceeds from the sale of investment securities within our portfolio in order to satisfy our obligations, we may be adversely impacted by our ability to transact and settle such sales. Sales of investment securities in an unrealized loss position would negatively affect our earnings and regulatory capital. In addition, in order to monetize our "held-to-maturity" securities, we expect to rely on pledging those securities for secured funding, and our liquidity may be impaired if we are unable to timely pledge those or any other securities due to a lack of available funding, operational impediments or otherwise. Our industry is susceptible to the negative impact of limited access to short-term and/or long-term sources of funds, which could result in a liquidity shortfall that could have an adverse effect on our operations, financial condition and earnings.
Our inability to access sources of financing at terms that are favorable to us may result in an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our liquidity could be adversely affected by any inability to access the debt or equity capital markets, liquidity or volatility in those capital markets, the decrease in value of eligible collateral or increased collateral requirements (including as a result of credit concerns for short-term borrowing), changes to our relationships with our funding providers based on real or perceived changes in our risk profile, prolonged federal government shutdowns or changes in regulations. Additionally, our liquidity may be negatively impacted by the unwillingness or inability of the Federal Reserve to extend credit through the discount window.

Our ability to raise additional financing depends on conditions in the capital markets, economic conditions and a number of other factors, including investor perceptions regarding the banking industry, market conditions and governmental activities and on our financial condition and performance. We may be unable to raise additional financing if needed on acceptable terms.
We face competition in the deposit markets and have experienced, and in the future may experience, a significant outflow in our customer deposit accounts, the impact of which required us, and may in the future require us, to find alternative sources of financing, including brokered deposits and other borrowings, in order to fund our financing commitments and operating activities.
We compete with banks and other financial services companies for deposits. If our competitors raise the rates they pay on deposits our funding costs may increase, either because we raise our rates to avoid losing deposits or because we lose deposits, and must rely on more expensive sources of funding. Checking and savings account balances and other forms of customer deposits may decrease when customers perceive other investment opportunities, such as stocks, bonds, or money market mutual funds, as providing a better risk/return trade-off. When customers move money out of bank deposits and into other investments, we may lose a relatively low-cost source of funds, increasing our funding costs and negatively affecting our business, liquidity, funding mix, results of operations or financial condition. Adverse changes in the real estate market in our market area could also have an adverse effect on our cost of funds and net interest margin, as we have a significant amount of noninterest-bearing deposits related to real estate sales and development.
Brokered deposits or other sources of financing, such as FHLB borrowings and repurchase agreements have historically been, and may in the future be, available only at higher financing costs. Generally, these alternative sources of financing may not be as stable as other types of deposits, or may be associated with higher levels of risk. An inability to maintain or replace customer and brokered deposits as they mature could negatively affect our liquidity, which could significantly reduce our future growth or materially adversely affect our business and our results of operations. If brokered deposits become more difficult to access, we may have to seek alternative funding sources, including accessing borrowings or selling loans or investment securities, in order to continue to fund our growth. There can be no assurance that brokered deposits will be available, or if available, sufficient to support our growth. The migration from one financing source to another financing source may negatively impact our business. The lack of availability of sufficient brokered deposits may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
In July 2025, President Trump signed into law the GENIUS Act, which establishes a regulatory framework for “payment stablecoins” and their issuers. Consumers and businesses may view payment stablecoins as a substitute for traditional bank deposits, resulting in deposit withdrawals. Depending on consumer and business interest in payment stablecoins, and the characteristics and utility of payment stablecoins, the passage of the GENIUS Act could result in increased competition with respect to the Bank’s deposit products. However, the GENIUS Act requires the U.S. Treasury Department and federal and state regulators to issue regulations on numerous topics to interpret and implement the statute, so the effect of the GENIUS Act will depend on what those regulations provide.
Our outstanding deposits with balances in excess of maximum FDIC insurance coverage limits may be more likely to be withdrawn or transferred to other financing sources with a higher costs to us, which could adversely impact our business, our financial condition, our results of operations, our liquidity and our funding mix.
As of December 31, 2025, we had approximately $2.3 billion of deposits, or 25% of our total deposits, in excess of the maximum FDIC insurance coverage limits. Deposits make up a significant source of financing for our operations and investment strategy. Customers who have uninsured deposits with us could present a heightened risk of withdrawal. Additionally, clients could elect to use other non-deposit funding products, such as repurchase agreements, that may require us to pay higher interest and to provide securities as collateral for our repurchase obligation. If a significant portion of our deposits were withdrawn, as happened in 2023, and could happen again, we may need to rely more heavily on more expensive borrowings and other sources of funding to fund our business and meet withdrawal demands, adversely affecting our net interest margin. The occurrence of any of these events could materially and adversely affect our business, liquidity, funding mix, results of operations or financial condition.
If we are unable to continue funding our assets through customer deposits or access capital markets on favorable terms or if we suffer an increase in our borrowing costs or otherwise fail to manage our liquidity effectively, our liquidity, net interest margin, financial results and condition may be materially adversely affected. In order to maintain appropriate levels of liquidity, we may need to, or be required to raise additional capital through the issuance of common stock, which could dilute the ownership of existing stockholders, or reduce or eliminate our common stock dividend to preserve capital. For example, the quarterly cash dividend amount was reduced to $0.01 in the fourth quarter of 2025 to preserve capital as the Company addresses asset quality matters.

Our inability to comply with capital and other regulatory requirements would have an adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations and our ability to return capital to our shareholders.
The banking industry is highly regulated and supervised under federal and state laws and regulations that are intended primarily for the protection of depositors, customers, the public, the banking industry as a whole or the FDIC deposit insurance fund ("DIF.") The Company and Bank are subject to regulation and supervision by the Federal Reserve and the FDIC, as well as our state regulator. We are subject to U.S. regulatory capital rules, and banking regulators have broad authority to determine whether we are operating in a safe and sound manner, including with respect to liquidity risk management and asset quality. We may need to raise additional financing in the future to meet regulatory requirements, supervisory expectations or business needs. We must meet certain regulatory capital requirements and maintain sufficient liquidity, including to maintain our status as a well-capitalized institution. Additionally, regulatory capital requirements could increase from current levels, which could require us to raise additional capital or change the size or composition of our balance sheet. If we fail to maintain capital to meet regulatory requirements, our regulators may place restrictions on our activities or impose penalties, which would adversely affect our liquidity, business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, the need to meet supervisory expectations regarding capital planning, asset quality and liquidity risk management, among other areas, exposes us to risks relating to ratings downgrades, ongoing heightened supervisory scrutiny, expenses associated with remediation activities and enforcement actions.
Our ability to fund our operations, to grow and to return capital to our shareholders depends in part on our ability to maintain regulatory capital levels above minimum requirements plus buffers. If earnings do not meet our current estimates, if we incur unanticipated losses or expenses, if we grow faster than expected or if our capital position and capital planning do not meet supervisory expectations, we may need to obtain additional capital sooner than expected or we may be required to reduce our level of assets or reduce or suspend dividends or stock repurchases (if restarted) or refrain from pursuing growth opportunities we may otherwise consider attractive. Under those circumstances net income and our growth prospects may be adversely affected.
Our investment securities are subject to market risk and credit risk that may have an adverse impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
Our investment securities portfolio is classified as either "available-for-sale" securities, which are marked to market on a recurring basis and recorded at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), or "held-to-maturity" securities, which are recorded at amortized cost less any associated ACL. A variety of factors beyond our control may significantly influence the fair values of AFS securities. These factors include, but are not limited to, market conditions, instability in the credit markets, rating agency downgrades of the securities, lack of market pricing of the securities, defaults of the issuers of the securities and issuer impairments. Conditions within the market or with the security may result in unrealized losses that may have a negative impact on our financial condition. If such losses were realized in a sales transaction of AFS securities, that may have a negative impact on our results of operations and our regulatory capital ratios.
Our investment securities portfolio as a whole is exposed to credit risk associated with rating agency downgrades and defaults or impairments of the issuers of those securities. We measure expected credit losses on our investment securities portfolio through our CECL estimate. Increases to the provision for credit losses would have a negative impact on our results of operations and regulatory capital ratios. Additionally, an insufficient CECL provision may result in additional losses that would also have an adverse impact on our results of operations. The investment securities portfolio’s performance, including the existence of unrealized and unrecognized losses in the portfolio, also may create other risks for us, particularly in conjunction with the conditions of the banking industry generally, that could result in deposit outflows or reduced access to funding, or negatively impact our ability to attract and retain prospective customers.
Damage to our reputation, including as a result of actual or alleged conduct or public opinion of the financial services industry generally could harm our operations, including our liquidity, competitive position and business prospects.
Risk to our business, liquidity, funding mix, earnings and financial condition from negative public opinion, adverse publicity or negative information is inherent in our business and has increased substantially due to the instant access and instantaneous transmission of information, which may include misinformation, including regarding actual or alleged conduct related to any number of activities or circumstances by the Bank, our directors, officers, employees and/or third parties. Our reputation may be harmed by our actual or perceived practices and disclosures and those of our customers and third parties. The speed and pervasiveness with which information can be disseminated through digital channels, in particular social media, could magnify risks relating to negative publicity.

Our ability to attract and retain customers is highly dependent upon the perceptions of current and prospective borrowers and deposit holders and other external perceptions of our products, services, trustworthiness, business practices, workplace culture, compliance practices or our financial health. Negative and adverse perceptions regarding our reputation and the banking industry’s reputation could lead to difficulties in generating and maintaining customers as well as in financing their needs, and difficulties maintaining appropriate liquidity levels and funding requirements. For example, in March 2023, SVB and Signature Bank, which had elevated concentrations of uninsured deposits, experienced large deposit outflows, resulting in the institutions being placed into FDIC receiverships. The collapse of these banking institutions sparked a panic that resulted in many banks, including us, experiencing deposit outflows and changes in deposit composition. In addition, the rapid dissemination of negative information through social media, in part, is believed to have accelerated the collapse of SVB. SVB suffered a level of deposit withdrawals within a time period not previously experienced by a bank. We could also be subject to rapid deposit withdrawals or other outflows as a result of negative social media posts or other negative publicity.
Negative public opinion or damage to our brand could also result from actual or alleged conduct in any number of activities or circumstances, including lending practices, regulatory compliance (including compliance with anti-money laundering statutes and regulations), security breaches or other cybersecurity incidents (including the use and protection of customer data), corporate governance, resolution of conflicts of interest and ethical issues, sales and marketing and from actions taken by regulators or other persons in response to such conduct. Such conduct could fall short of our customers' and the public's heightened expectations of financial institutions with rigorous privacy, data protection, data security and compliance practices, and could further harm our reputation. In addition, there has been an increased focus by investors and other stakeholders on topics related to corporate policies and approaches regarding sustainability and other issues. Due to divergent stakeholder views on these matters, we are at increased risk that any action, or lack thereof, concerning these matters will be perceived negatively by some stakeholders, which could negatively affect our business and reputation and heighten the risk of litigation.
Negative perceptions regarding our ability to maintain the security of our technology systems and protect customer data or our compliance programs, could lead to decreases in the levels of deposits that customers and potential customers choose to maintain with us or significantly increase the costs of attracting and retaining customers. We also face an increased risk of litigation and governmental and regulatory action and scrutiny in response to those conditions.
If we do not respond appropriately to the current economic environment, or if customers or other stakeholders do not perceive our response to be adequate, we could suffer damage to our brand, which could materially adversely affect our business. All these factors may erode consumer and investor confidence levels, and/or increased volatility of financial markets, could impact and/or adversely affect our reputation and the banking industry’s reputation which could harm our operations, including our liquidity, competitive position and business prospects.
We may not be able to grow or manage competition.
We intend to seek further growth in the level of our loans and deposits within our existing footprint in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. We cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to grow at acceptable risk levels and upon acceptable terms, or at all. Our ability to generate loan portfolio growth has been and may continue to be negatively impacted based on our ability to source deposit funding and lending opportunities, the adverse economic effects due to the levels of interest rates and inflation, banking industry stresses and the heightened competition in the Bank’s market area. Even if economic conditions continue to improve in future quarters, there can be no assurance that we will be able to increase our total net loans in the short-term or long-term.
We may not be able to achieve meaningful growth in asset levels, loans or earnings in future years. Moreover, if our asset size and loan portfolio were to increase, it may become more difficult to continue to grow in the future. Additionally, it may become more difficult to maintain or achieve improvements in our expense levels and efficiency ratio. We may not be able to achieve or maintain the relatively low levels of nonperforming assets that we have generally experienced prior to 2024. The inability to maintain or achieve growth of income, assets or deposits and increases in operating expenses or nonperforming assets may have an adverse impact on our results of operations, financial condition and the value of the common stock.
Failure to maintain effective systems of internal and disclosure controls could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and stock price.
Effective internal and disclosure controls are necessary for us to provide reliable financial reports and effectively prevent fraud and to operate successfully as a public company. If we cannot provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud, our reputation, operating results or stock price could be adversely impacted.

Table of Contents | | Risk Factors |
| | |
Any failure to maintain effective controls, to timely implement any necessary improvement to our internal and disclosure controls or to effect remediation of any material weakness or significant deficiency could, among other things, result in losses from fraud or error, harm our reputation or cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition or stock price.
Management reviews and updates our systems of internal control and disclosure controls and procedures, as well as corporate governance policies and procedures, from time to time. Any system of controls is based in part on certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurances that the objectives of the system are met. Any failure or circumvention of our controls and procedures or failure to comply with regulations on internal controls could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We may face risks with respect to future expansion or acquisition activity.
We are subject to comprehensive regulation under federal and state banking laws. These laws and regulations significantly affect and have the potential to restrict the scope of our existing businesses and limit our ability to pursue certain business opportunities, including the products and services we offer. We may seek to selectively expand our banking operations through limited de novo branching or opportunistic acquisition activities. We cannot be certain that any expansion activity, through de novo branching, acquisition of branches of another financial institution or a whole institution or the establishment or acquisition of nonbanking financial services companies, will prove profitable or will increase shareholder value.
The FRB's prior approval is required to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of any bank or savings association, to acquire direct or indirect ownership or control of more than 5% of any class of voting securities of any bank or savings association or to merge or consolidate with any other bank holding company or savings and loan holding company. Such regulatory approvals may not be granted on terms that are acceptable to us, or at all. We may also be required to sell branches as a condition of approval, a condition which may not be acceptable to us or, if acceptable to us, may reduce the benefit of any acquisition.
The success of any acquisition will depend, in part, on our ability to realize the estimated cost savings and revenue enhancements from combining the businesses of the Company and the target company. Our ability to realize increases in revenue will depend, in part, on our ability to retain customers and employees and to capitalize on existing relationships for the provision of additional products and services. If our estimates for such activities turn out to be incorrect or we are not able to successfully combine companies, the anticipated cost savings and increased revenues may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer to realize than expected. It is possible that the integration process could result in the loss of key employees, the disruption of each company’s ongoing business or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies that adversely affect our ability to maintain relationships with clients and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits of the merger. As with any combination of banking institutions, there also may be disruptions that cause us to lose customers or cause customers to withdraw their deposits from our bank. Customers may not readily accept changes to their banking arrangements that we make as part of or following an acquisition. Additionally, the value of an acquisition to the Company is dependent on our ability to successfully identify and estimate the magnitude of any asset quality issues of acquired companies.
Our concentrations of loans may create a greater risk of loan defaults and losses.
A substantial portion of our loans are secured by commercial real estate in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area and substantially all of our loans are to borrowers in that area. We also have a significant amount of real estate construction loans and land related loans for commercial developments. The performance and repayment of these loans often depends on the successful operation of a business or the sale or development of the underlying property and, as a result, is more likely to be adversely affected by adverse conditions in the real estate market or the economy in general. Refer to the MD&A section "Loan Portfolio" for further discussion on the components of our loan portfolio and lending activities.
While we believe that our loan portfolio is well diversified in terms of borrowers and industries, these concentrations expose us to the risk that adverse developments in the real estate market or in the general economic conditions in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, and in particular the area’s office property market, could increase the levels of nonperforming loans, which could have an adverse impact on our provision for credit losses, loan charge-offs and overall loan demand. In that event, we would likely experience higher losses or lower earnings. Additionally, if, for any reason, economic conditions in our market area deteriorate, commercial real estate values, in particular for offices, decline further, or there is significant volatility or weakness in the economy or any significant sector of the area’s economy, our ability to develop our business relationships may be diminished, the quality and collectability of our loans may be adversely affected, the value of collateral may decline and loan demand may be reduced.

The loan portfolio contains a significant number of commercial and commercial real estate and construction loans with relatively large balances. The deterioration of one or a few of these loans may cause a significant increase in nonperforming assets. An increase in nonperforming loans could result in: a loss of earnings from these loans, an increase in the provision for loan losses, an increase in loan charge-offs and/or an increase in operating expenses which could have an adverse impact on our results of operations and financial condition.
Our concentration of large depositors may increase our liquidity risk and have an adverse effect on our results of operations.
While no single depositor represented more than 10% of total deposits as of December 31, 2025, our ten largest depositors not associated with brokered pass-through relationships represented approximately 18% of total deposits. This high concentration of depositors presents a risk to our liquidity if one or more of these depositors decides to change its relationship with us and to withdraw all or a significant portion of its deposits. If such an event occurs, we may need to seek out alternative sources of funding that may not be on the same terms as the deposits being replaced, including at potentially higher rates, which could negatively impact our net interest margin and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects. If we are unable to source alternative sources of funding at attractive rates or at all, we could be required to sell or otherwise monetize securities from our investment securities portfolio, which could have similar adverse consequences.
Changes in interest rates and other factors beyond our control could have an adverse impact on our financial performance and results.
Our liquidity, funding mix, competitive position, business, results of operations and financial condition depend to a great extent on our net interest margin, i.e., the difference between the interest yields we receive on loans, securities and other interest-bearing assets and the interest rates we pay on interest-bearing deposits and other liabilities. Net interest margin is affected by changes in market interest rates, because different types of assets and liabilities may react differently, and at different times, to market interest rate changes. When interest-bearing liabilities mature or re-price more quickly than interest earning assets in a period, an increase in market rates of interest could reduce net interest income, possibly materially. Similarly, when interest earning assets mature or re-price more quickly than interest-bearing liabilities, falling interest rates could reduce net interest income, possibly materially. Fluctuations in interest rates have a direct impact on our credit spreads and the cost of our funding. Changes in our credit spreads and funding costs are market driven and may be influenced by market perceptions of our creditworthiness, including changes in our credit ratings or changes in broader financial market and macroeconomic conditions. Changes to interest rates, our credit spreads and funding costs occur continuously and may be unpredictable and highly volatile. Developments affecting other banking institutions or the banking sector generally can also have a significant effect on our funding costs. We may also experience net interest margin compression as a result of offering higher than expected deposit rates in order to attract and maintain deposits.
These rates are highly sensitive to many factors beyond our control, including competition, general economic conditions and monetary and fiscal policies of various governmental and regulatory authorities, including the FRB. We attempt to manage our risk from changes in market interest rates by adjusting the rates, maturity, re-pricing, and balances of the different types of interest earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, but interest rate risk management techniques are not exact. As a result, a rapid increase or decrease in interest rates could have an adverse effect on our net interest margin and results of operations. Refer to "Item 7a. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk " for further discussion on our asset/liability management.
In addition, if interest rates continue to stay elevated or start to rise again, we may continue to experience deposit outflows. The results of our interest rate sensitivity simulation model depend upon a number of assumptions, which may not prove to be accurate. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully manage our interest rate risk.
Fluctuations in inflation rates may also have a number of adverse effects on us. For example, material increases in inflation rates would likely result in an increase in personnel and other operational costs and an increase in salary and wage expenses, which comprise the Bank’s most significant non-interest expense category. Long periods of high inflation also result in higher interest rates, which will increase the Bank’s deposit costs and overall cost of funds. Higher interest rates will also reduce the value of the Bank’s investment portfolio holdings, and if such reductions are significant, they may materially limit our ability to meet future liquidity shortfalls by selling investments without realizing substantial losses. Higher interest rates can also adversely affect the creditworthiness of the Bank’s borrowers, and the commercial real estate loan portfolio is particularly sensitive to a higher interest rate environment. These and other indirect impacts of inflation could significantly adversely affect our earnings and capital in both the short term and long term.

We may not be able to successfully compete with others for business.
We compete in a highly competitive market for loans and deposit dollars with numerous regional and national banks, online divisions of out-of-market banks and other community banking institutions, as well as other kinds of financial institutions and enterprises, such as securities firms, insurance companies, savings associations, credit unions, mortgage brokers, private lenders and nontraditional competitors such as fintech companies and internet-based lenders, depositories and payment systems. Our profitability depends upon our continued ability to successfully compete with traditional and new financial services providers, some of which maintain a physical presence in our market areas and others of which maintain only a virtual presence. Many competitors have substantially greater resources than us, and some operate under less stringent regulatory environments. The differences in resources and regulations may make it harder for us to compete profitably, reduce the rates that we can earn on loans and investments, increase the rates we must offer on deposits and other funds and adversely affect our overall financial condition and earnings.
The Bank has developed and aims to continue to develop new customer relationships. Going forward, due to competitive pressures, we are subject to the risk that we may not be able to retain the loans and deposits produced by these new relationships. There can be no assurance that our relationship banking model will enable us to keep a significant percentage of new relationships or continue to develop new relationships, that we would be able to maintain appropriate levels in the pricing, margins and asset quality or that we will be able to grow.
Our customers and businesses in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area in general have been and may continue to be adversely impacted as a result of changes in government spending or the size of the federal workforce and may also be adversely affected by a government shutdown.
The presidential administration and certain governmental agencies have taken action to reduce government spending, including on government contractors, and the size of the federal government workforce. These announcements have had an adverse effect on the economy of the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, which in turn could continue to adversely affect the Company and its borrowers. In particular, the presidential administration and certain government agencies have taken steps to reduce the real estate footprint of the federal government. Because the federal government occupies a significant amount of real estate in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, these actions have adversely affected the commercial real estate market in the metropolitan area. These developments have affected and may continue to affect the appraisals we receive on the real estate collateral underlying certain of our loans and may affect our ability to recover the outstanding balance of a loan secured by real estate that defaults.
The Washington, D.C. metropolitan area is characterized by a significant number of businesses that are federal government contractors or subcontractors, or which depend on such businesses for a significant portion of their revenues. While the Company does not have a significant level of loans to federal government contractors or their subcontractors, the impact of a shutdown of federal government operations, a decline in federal government spending or workforce, a reallocation of government spending to different industries or different areas of the country or a delay in payments to such contractors, whether as a result of a government shutdown or otherwise, could have a ripple effect and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition, including asset quality, financial capital and liquidity levels.
In addition, federal government employees make up a significant proportion of the population of the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. Layoffs, staffing freezes, salary reductions or furloughs of government employees or government contractors and other impacts from declining government spending, lapses in appropriations, or changes in fiscal appropriations could have adverse impacts on other businesses in the Company’s market and the general economy of the greater Washington, D.C. metropolitan area and may indirectly lead to a loss of revenues by the Company’s customers, including vendors and lessors to the federal government and government contractors or to their employees, as well as a wide variety of commercial and retail businesses. Accordingly, such potential federal government actions could lead to increases in past due loans, nonperforming loans, credit loss reserves and charge-offs and a decline in liquidity.
Changes in U.S. trade policies and practices could have an adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations.
Over the past year, the United States has announced new tariffs and increases in tariffs that represent substantial changes in U.S. trade policies and practices that have the potential to significantly affect the U.S. economy by increasing the cost of imported goods, disrupting supply chains, reducing exports, and slowing or reducing economic growth.
Prolonged uncertainty or restrictive trade policies could adversely affect the ability of borrowers to repay outstanding loans or the value of collateral securing these loans, and have other negative consequences, including, but not limited to, reduced consumer confidence, reduced employment, adverse conditions in financial markets, and higher,
| | | | | | | | |
Eagle Bancorp, Inc 2025 Form 10-K | | 27 |
| | | | | | | | |
Table of Contents | | Risk Factors |
| | |
more volatile or persistent inflation. Due to the rapidly evolving and changing state of U.S. trade policies and practices, the amount and duration of any tariffs, and the responses of other countries, the ultimate effects of changes in the U.S. trade policies and practices on the Company, its borrowers, financial markets and the overall U.S. economy are highly uncertain and unpredictable. To the extent that risks or developments relating to U.S. trade policy have a negative impact on the financial condition of borrowers, the U.S. economy or financial markets, it could also have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We rely upon independent appraisals to determine the value of the real estate that secures a significant portion of our loans, and the values indicated by such appraisals may not be realizable if we are forced to foreclose upon such loans.
A significant portion of our loan portfolio consists of loans secured by real estate. We rely upon independent appraisers at the time of origination to estimate the value of such real estate. Appraisals are only estimates of value, and the soundness of those estimates may be affected by volatility in the real estate market or other changes in market conditions. In addition, the independent appraisers may make mistakes of fact or judgment, which adversely affect the reliability of their appraisals. In addition, events occurring after the initial appraisal may cause the value of the real estate to increase or decrease. For example, since 2020 and in light of the prevalence of hybrid work arrangements and associated lower occupancy rates, the value of commercial real estate secured by office properties has generally declined. As a result of these factors, the real estate securing some of our loans is less valuable than anticipated at the time the loans were made. If a default occurs on a loan secured by real estate that is less valuable than originally estimated, we may not be able to recover the outstanding balance of the loan and will suffer a loss.
We are exposed to risk of environmental liabilities with respect to properties to which we take title.
In the course of our business we lend against, and from time to time foreclose and take title to, real estate, potentially becoming subject to environmental liabilities associated with the properties. We may be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage, personal injury, investigation and cleanup costs or we may be required to investigate or clean up hazardous or toxic substances or chemical releases at a property. Costs associated with investigation or remediation activities can be substantial. If the Bank is the lender to, or owner or former owner of, a contaminated site, it may be subject to common law claims by third parties based on damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination emanating from the property. These costs and claims could adversely affect our business.
Climate-related risks or government action and societal responses to climate-related risks could adversely affect our results of operations.
The likelihood of the occurrence and severity of natural disasters has been increasing, as has the prevalence and severity of extreme heat, sea level rise, drought, storms and other instances of extreme weather. Such significant natural disasters may negatively impact the Company’s geographic markets, disrupting the operations of the Company, our customers or third parties on which we rely. Damages to real estate underlying mortgage loans or real estate collateral, declines in economic conditions in geographic markets in which the Company’s customers operate and increased premiums for and reduced availability of insurance may impact our customers’ ability to repay loans or maintain deposits due to climate-related risks, which could increase our delinquency rates and average credit loss.
Companies are facing increasing scrutiny from customers, regulators and other governmental authorities, investors and other stakeholders related to their environmental, social and governance ("ESG") practices and disclosure. New government regulations could result in more stringent forms of ESG oversight and reporting and diligence and disclosure requirements. Increased ESG related compliance costs, in turn, could result in increases to our overall operational costs. Conversely, there has been increasing anti-ESG sentiment in the U.S., which has led and is likely to continue to lead to new anti-ESG policies and legislative and regulatory requirements discouraging or preventing ESG-related initiatives. As a result, we may face heightened and potentially conflicting regulatory and legal requirements, as well as reputational scrutiny. Failure to adapt to or comply with regulatory requirements or investor or stakeholder expectations and standards, including with respect to the Company’s involvement in certain industries or projects associated with causing or exacerbating climate change, may negatively affect the Company’s reputation and commercial relationships, which could adversely affect our business.
Difficulty recruiting or retaining successful bankers, as well as the loss of any of our executive officers or other key personnel, could negatively impact the implementation of our business strategy, impair relationships with our customers and adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.
In light of macroeconomic factors, human capital management risks are an important component of the Company’s assessment of risk and its enterprise risk management system. Our ability to retain and grow loans, deposits and fee income depends upon the business generation capabilities, reputation and relationship management skills of

our bankers. If we are unable to recruit successful bankers, or lose the services of any of our bankers to a new or existing competitor or otherwise, we may be unable to establish and retain valuable relationships and some of our customers or potential customers could choose to use the services of a competitor instead
Moreover, the Company relies significantly on the expertise and experience of our executive officers and senior management, whose skills, years of industry experience and relationships with customers may be difficult for the Company to replace. Our President and Chief Executive Officer, Susan Riel, has announced her intention to retire effective as of a date to be mutually agreed between her and the Board of Directors, no later than December 31, 2026. Ms. Riel’s departure or the loss of service of one or more of our other key personnel could reduce the Company’s ability to successfully implement its long-term business strategy, our business could suffer and the value of the Company’s common stock could be materially adversely affected. Other leadership changes may occur from time to time and the Company cannot predict whether significant resignations will occur or whether the Company will be able to recruit additional qualified personnel and suitable successors. There can be no assurance that the Company can adequately prepare for these risks prior to their occurrence or that they will not have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations.
Risks Related to Investing in Our Stock
Our ability to make distributions in respect of our securities may be limited.
Our ability to pay a cash dividend on our common stock, to repurchase shares of our common stock or to pay interest on our debt depends largely upon the ability of the Bank to declare and pay dividends to the Company. Payment of distributions on our securities will also depend upon the Bank’s earnings, financial condition and need for funds, as well as laws, regulations and governmental policies applicable to the Company and the Bank, which limit the amount of distributions that may be made. In addition to the minimum CET1, Tier 1, leverage ratio and total capital ratios, the Company and the Bank each must maintain a capital conservation buffer consisting of additional CET1 capital greater than 2.5% of risk-weighted assets above the required minimum risk-based capital levels in order to avoid limitations on paying dividends and repurchasing shares. The payment of dividends in any period and the adoption or implementation of a share repurchase program do not mean that the Company will continue to pay dividends at the current level, or at all, or that it will repurchase any shares of common stock. Refer to "Regulation" under Item 1 and to "Market for Common Stock" under Item 5 for additional information.
We may issue additional equity securities or engage in other transactions that could affect the priority of our common stock, which may adversely affect the market price of our common stock.
In accordance with our Amended Articles of Incorporation, our Board may determine from time to time that we need to raise additional capital by issuing additional shares of our common stock or other securities. We are not restricted from issuing additional shares of common stock, including securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, common stock. Because our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of any future offerings or the prices at which such offerings may be effected. Such offerings could be dilutive to common shareholders. Pursuant to our Amended Articles of Incorporation, the Company’s Board is authorized to issue up to one million shares of preferred stock, on such terms and with such powers, preferences, rights and provisions as it may determine and to divide the preferred stock into one or more classes or series. New investors, and particularly investors in any preferred stock the Company may issue from time to time, will therefore have rights, preferences and privileges that are senior to, and that adversely affect, our then current common shareholders. Additionally, if we raise additional capital by making additional offerings of debt or preferred equity securities, upon liquidation of the Company, holders of our debt securities and shares of preferred stock and lenders with respect to other borrowings will receive distributions of our available assets prior to the holders of our common stock. Also, additional equity offerings may dilute the holdings of our existing shareholders or reduce the market price of our common stock, or both. Holders of our common stock are not entitled to preemptive rights or other protections against dilution.
Substantial regulatory limitations on changes of control and anti-takeover provisions of Maryland law may make it more difficult for shareholders to receive a change in control premium.
With certain limited exceptions, federal regulations prohibit a person or company or a group of persons deemed to be "acting in concert" from, directly or indirectly, acquiring more than 10% (5% if the acquirer is a bank holding company) of any class of the Company’s voting stock or obtaining the ability to control in any manner the election of a majority of its directors or otherwise direct the management or policies of the Company without prior notice or application to and the approval of the Federal Reserve. There are comparable prior approval requirements for changes in control under Maryland law. Also, the Maryland General Corporation Law contains several provisions that may make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of the Company without the approval of its Board and may make it more difficult or expensive for a third party to acquire a majority of its outstanding common stock.

Risks Related to Our Legal and Regulatory Environment
Our concentrations of loans may require us to maintain higher levels of capital.
Under guidance adopted by the federal banking agencies, banks that have concentrations in construction, land development or commercial real estate loans (other than loans for majority owner occupied properties) are expected to maintain higher levels of risk management policies and processes and, potentially, higher levels of capital. We may be required to maintain higher levels of capital than the minimums and buffers required under the capital regulations applicable to us, including as a result of our levels of construction, development and commercial real estate loans.
Litigation and regulatory actions, including enforcement actions, could subject us to significant fines, penalties, judgments or other requirements resulting in increased expenses or restrictions on our activities.
In the normal course of our business, we are named as a defendant in various legal actions arising in connection with our current and/or prior business activities or public disclosures. Legal actions could include claims for substantial compensatory or punitive damages or claims for indeterminate amounts of damages. Further, we may be subject to regulatory enforcement actions. We are also continually the subject of exams, subpoenas, requests for information, reviews, investigations and proceedings (both formal and informal) by various government agencies and other bodies regarding our current and/or prior business activities. Additionally, from time to time we receive demand letters from shareholders, and such letters may lead to these shareholders filing claims or derivative suits against us if our engagement with such shareholders ends in a failure to successfully negotiate a settlement.
Any such legal or regulatory actions or investigations may subject us to substantial compensatory or punitive damages, significant fines, penalties, obligations to change our business practices, required changes in our senior officers or other requirements resulting in increased expenses, diminished income and damage to our business. Our involvement in any such matters, whether tangential or otherwise, and even if the matters are ultimately determined in our favor, could also cause significant harm to our reputation and divert management attention from the operation of our business. Further, any settlement, regulatory order or agreement, informal enforcement action or adverse judgment in connection with any formal or informal proceeding or investigation by government agencies may result in adverse audit findings or additional litigation, investigations or proceedings as other parties, including other litigants and/or government agencies begin independent reviews of the same activities. As a result, the outcome of legal and regulatory actions could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and stock price, including in any particular reporting period.
Further, in litigation and regulatory matters, it is inherently difficult to determine whether any loss is probable or whether it is possible to estimate the amount of any reasonably possible loss. We cannot predict with certainty if, how or when such proceedings will be resolved or what the eventual fine, penalty or other relief, conditions or restrictions, if any, may be, particularly for actions that are in their early stages of investigation. We may be required to pay fines or civil money penalties or make other payments in connection with certain of these issues. This uncertainty makes it difficult to estimate probable losses, which, in turn, can lead to substantial disparities between the reserves we may establish for such proceedings and the eventual settlements, fines or penalties. For example, as disclosed in “Note 19 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities” and “Note 25 - Subsequent Events”, subsequent to the Company’s issuance of its earnings release on January 21, 2026, the Company accrued a provision in the amount of $10 million relating to the investigation by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania referenced in Note 19. While the Company and Bank carry insurance to protect us from material outlays (excluding regulatory fees and penalties), such insurance may not always fully or even substantially cover such outlays. The Company maintains director and officer insurance policies ("D&O Insurance Policies") that provide coverage for legal defense costs. When the D&O Insurance Policies are exhausted, the Company is responsible for paying the defense costs associated with those investigations and litigations (to include unpaid receivables from the insurance carriers) for itself and on behalf of any current and former officers and directors entitled to indemnification from the Company. The Company has incurred and may incur in the future legal costs in connection with current ongoing and any potential future investigations and legal proceedings, as they are dependent on various factors, many of which are outside of the Company’s control. In the event such costs are significant, they could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and stock price.
Our operation in our regulatory environment, both current or updated as a result of new or updated laws or rules, may have an adverse impact on our business, our financial condition and our results of operations.
The banking industry is highly regulated and supervised under federal and state laws and regulations that are intended primarily for the protection of depositors, customers, the public, the banking system as a whole or the FDIC DIF, and not our shareholders or other security holders. The Company and Bank are subject to regulation and supervision by the Federal Reserve and the FDIC, as well as our state regulator. Compliance with these laws and
| | | | | | | | |
Eagle Bancorp, Inc 2025 Form 10-K | | 30 |
| | | | | | | | |
Table of Contents | | Risk Factors |
| | |
regulations can be difficult and costly, and we may incur significant expenses to meet supervisory expenses or remediate supervisory findings. The laws and regulations applicable to the Company and Bank govern a variety of matters, including permissible types, amounts and terms of loans and investments they may make, the maximum interest rate that may be charged, the types of deposits that may be accepted and the rates that may be paid on such deposits, maintenance of adequate capital and liquidity, changes in control of the Company and Bank, transactions between the Bank and its affiliates, handling of nonpublic information, restrictions on distributions to shareholders through dividends or share repurchases, dividends and establishment of new offices.
The Company’s and the Bank’s regulators have also provided guidance on supervisory expectations relating to risk management and numerous other aspects of our activities. We must obtain approval from our regulators before engaging in certain activities, and there is risk that such approvals may not be granted, either in a timely manner or at all. These requirements may constrain our operations, and the adoption of new laws and changes to or repeal of existing laws may have a further impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Also, the burden imposed by those laws and regulations may place banks in general, including the Bank in particular, at a competitive disadvantage compared to our non-bank competitors. Our failure to comply with any applicable laws or regulations or regulatory policies and interpretations of such laws and regulations, or our failure to meet supervisory expectations, could result in sanctions by regulatory agencies, civil money penalties or damage to our reputation, all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Applicable federal and state laws, regulations, regulatory guidance, interpretations, enforcement policies and accounting principles have been subject to significant changes in recent years and may be subject to significant future changes. Future changes may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. We cannot predict the substance or effect of future legislation or regulation or the application of laws and regulations to us. Compliance with current and potential regulation, as well as regulatory scrutiny, may significantly increase our costs, impede the efficiency of our internal business processes, require us to increase regulatory capital, to change the size or composition of our funding, loan portfolio or investment securities portfolio, or to limit our ability to pursue business opportunities.
In addition, regulators may elect to alter standards or the interpretation of the standards used to measure regulatory compliance or to determine the adequacy of liquidity, risk management or other operational practices for financial service companies in a manner that impacts our ability to implement our strategy and could affect us in substantial and unpredictable ways and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, the regulatory agencies have extremely broad discretion in their interpretation of laws and regulations and their assessment of the quality of our loan portfolio, securities portfolio and other assets. If any regulatory agency’s assessment of the quality of our assets, operations, lending practices, investment practices, capital structure or other aspects of our business differs from our assessment, we may be required to take additional charges or undertake, or refrain from taking, actions that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Increases in FDIC insurance premiums could adversely affect our earnings and results of operations.
The deposits of our bank are insured by the FDIC up to legal limits and, accordingly, subject it to the payment of FDIC deposit insurance assessments, determined in accordance with a defined calculation. The FDIC has imposed a special assessment to recover the losses to the DIF resulting from the FDIC’s use, in March 2023, of the systemic risk exception to the least-cost resolution test under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act in connection with the receiverships of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank. Increases in assessment rates or further special assessments may occur in the future, especially if there are significant additional financial institution failures. Any future special assessments, increases in assessment rates or required prepayments in FDIC insurance premiums could reduce our profitability or limit our ability to pursue certain business opportunities, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We are subject to laws regarding the privacy, information security and protection of personal information, and any violation of these laws or another incident involving personal, confidential or proprietary information of individuals could damage our reputation and otherwise adversely affect our business.
Our business requires the collection and retention of large volumes of customer data, including personally identifiable information ("PII") in various information systems that we maintain and in those maintained by third-party service providers. We also maintain important internal company data such as PII about our employees and information relating to our operations. We are subject to complex and evolving laws and regulations governing the privacy and protection of PII of individuals (including customers, employees and other third parties), as well as planning for responding to data security breaches. Various federal and state banking regulators and states have also enacted data breach notification requirements with varying levels of individual, consumer, regulatory or law enforcement notification in the event of a security breach. We have incurred and expect to continue to incur costs in connection with our policies and procedures designed to ensure that our collection, use, transfer, storage and
| | | | | | | | |
Eagle Bancorp, Inc 2025 Form 10-K | | 31 |
| | | | | | | | |
Table of Contents | | Risk Factors |
| | |
disposal of PII complies with all applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, customers and other third parties may not have appropriate controls in place to protect the confidentiality of the information that they exchange with us, particularly where such information is transmitted by electronic means, which can expose us to risks and potential costs and liabilities. If personal, confidential or proprietary information of customers or others were to be mishandled or misused (in situations where, for example, such information was erroneously provided to parties who are not permitted to have the information or where such information was intercepted or otherwise compromised by third parties), we could be exposed to litigation or regulatory sanctions under privacy and data protection laws and regulations.
Concerns regarding the effectiveness of our measures to safeguard PII, or even the perception that such measures are inadequate, could cause us to lose customers or potential customers and thereby reduce our revenues. Accordingly, any failure, or perceived failure, to comply with applicable privacy or data protection laws and regulations may subject us to inquiries, examinations and investigations that could result in requirements to modify or cease certain operations or practices or in significant liabilities, fines or penalties and could damage our reputation and otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Risks Related to Accounting and Taxation
Changes in tax laws could have an adverse effect on us, the banking industry, our customers, the value of collateral securing our loans and demand for loans.
We are subject to the effect of changes in tax laws which could increase the effective tax rate payable by us to federal, state and municipal governments, reduce the value of our beneficial tax attributes or otherwise adversely affect our business, results of operations or financial condition. Additionally, changes in tax laws could have a negative impact on the banking industry, borrowers, the market for single family residential or commercial real estate or business borrowing. To the extent that changes in law discourage borrowing, ownership of real property or business investment, such changes may have an adverse effect on the demand for our loans. Further, the value of the properties securing loans in our portfolio may be adversely impacted as a result of the changing economics of real estate ownership and borrowing, which could require an increase in our ACL, which would reduce our profitability and could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, certain borrowers could become less able to service their debts as a result of changes in taxation. Any such changes could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Changes in accounting standards could impact our financial condition and results of operations.
From time to time there are changes in the financial accounting and reporting standards that govern the preparation of our financial statements. These changes can be operationally complex to implement and can materially impact how we record and report our financial condition and results of operations. In some instances, we could be required to apply a new or revised standard retroactively, resulting in the restatement of prior period financial statements. Any such changes could adversely affect the Company’s and Bank’s capital, regulatory capital ratios, ability to make larger loans, earnings and performance metrics.
Risks Related to The Use of Technology
Our operations, including our transactions with customers and the services we receive from third parties, are increasingly conducted via electronic means, and this has increased risks related to cybersecurity.
We are exposed to the risk of cyber-attacks in the normal course of business. In addition, we are exposed to cyber-attacks on vendors and merchants that affect us and our customers. In general, cyber incidents can result from deliberate attacks or unintentional events. The financial services industry has been affected by, and will in the future continue to be affected by, cyber-attacks that include, but are not limited to, gaining unauthorized access to digital systems for purposes of misappropriating assets or sensitive information, corrupting data or causing operational disruption. Despite our efforts to develop and implement policies and procedures to identify, protect, detect, respond and recover from the possible security breach of our information systems and cyber-fraud, we may not be able to anticipate, detect or implement effective protective measures against all cyber-attacks, including because the techniques used are increasingly sophisticated, change frequently and are often not recognized until launched. Cyber-attacks can originate from a variety of sources, including third parties affiliated with or sponsored by foreign governments or involved with organized crime or terrorist organizations. While we maintain insurance coverage that may, subject to policy terms and conditions including significant self-insured deductibles, cover certain aspects of cyber risks, such insurance coverage may be insufficient to cover all losses. While we have not incurred any material losses related to cyber-attacks, we may incur substantial costs and suffer other negative consequences as a result of successful cyber-attacks. Such negative consequences could include remediation costs that may include liability for stolen assets or information and repairing system damage that may have been caused; deploying additional personnel and protection technologies, training employees and engaging third-party experts and

consultants; lost revenues resulting from unauthorized use of proprietary information or the failure to retain or attract customers following an attack; disruption or failures of physical infrastructure, operating systems or networks that support our business and customers resulting in the loss of customers and business opportunities; additional regulatory scrutiny and possible regulatory penalties; litigation; and reputational damage adversely affecting customer or investor confidence.
We rely heavily on communications and information systems to conduct our business. Any failure, interruption or breach in security of these systems could result in failures or disruptions in our customer relationship management, general ledger, deposit, loan and other systems. While we have policies and procedures designed to prevent or limit the effect of the failure, interruption or security breach of our information systems, there can be no assurance that any such failures, interruptions or security breaches will not occur or, if they do occur, that they will be adequately addressed. Although we maintain insurance coverage that may, subject to policy terms and conditions including significant self-insured deductibles, cover certain aspects of cyber risks, such insurance coverage may be insufficient to cover all losses. The occurrence of any failures, interruptions or security breaches of our information systems could damage our reputation, adversely affect customer or investor confidence, result in a loss of customer business, subject us to additional regulatory scrutiny and possible regulatory penalties or expose us to civil litigation and possible financial liability, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
Failure to keep up with the rapid technological changes in the financial services industry could have a material adverse effect on our competitive position and profitability.
The financial services industry is undergoing rapid technological changes, with frequent introductions of new technology-driven products and services, including those based on artificial intelligence and blockchain technologies. The effective use of technology increases efficiency and enables financial institutions to better serve customers and reduce costs. Our future success will depend, in part, upon our ability to address the needs of customers by using technology to provide products and services that will satisfy customer demands for convenience, as well as to create additional efficiencies in our operations. Many of our competitors have substantially greater resources to invest in technological improvements. We may not be able to implement new technology-driven products and services effectively or be successful in marketing these products and services to customers. Failure to successfully keep pace with technological change affecting the financial services industry could harm our ability to compete effectively and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. As these technologies are improved in the future, we may be required to make significant capital expenditures in order to remain competitive, which may increase our overall expenses and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We depend on the use of data and modeling in both management’s decision-making, generally, and in meeting regulatory expectations, in particular.
The use of statistical and quantitative models and other quantitatively-based analyses is endemic to bank decision-making and regulatory compliance processes and the employment of such analyses is common in our operations. Liquidity stress testing, interest rate sensitivity analysis, allowance for credit loss measurement, portfolio stress testing, assessing capital adequacy and the identification of possible violations of anti-money laundering regulations are examples of areas in which we are dependent on models and the data that underlies them. We anticipate that model-derived insights will be used more widely in decision-making in the future, including as the use of artificial intelligence increases. While these quantitative techniques and approaches are intended to improve our decision-making, they also create the possibility that faulty data, flawed quantitative approaches or poorly designed or implemented models could yield adverse or faulty outcomes and decisions, and could result in regulatory scrutiny. In addition, because of the complexity inherent in these approaches, especially those based on artificial intelligence, misunderstanding or misuse of their outputs could similarly result in suboptimal decision-making, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and share price.

ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY
As a publicly-traded financial institution, we are subject to various cybersecurity risks that could adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations and reputation, including, but not limited to, cyber-attacks against us or our service providers focused on gaining unauthorized access to digital systems for purposes of misappropriating assets or sensitive information, corrupting data or causing operational disruption. As described below, we have risk management and governance practices and processes designed to address these risks.

The Company has established an enterprise risk management framework that outlines the processes and procedures the Company uses to identify, assess, mitigate and monitor the risks faced by the Company, including cybersecurity risk.
Within the overarching enterprise risk management framework, we have an information security program designed to preserve the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information or data on our systems and those of our service providers, as documented in our information security policy.
Our information security program takes a risk-based approach to identifying and assessing the cybersecurity risks that exist within our business and information technology systems. The program addresses the roles and responsibilities of the Board, its committees and management.
The Board is responsible for the oversight of cybersecurity risk management, as well as the selection of a Chief Information Security Officer ("CISO"), the management official responsible for administering and executing the information security program. The Board’s Technology Oversight Committee ("TOC") assists the Board in its oversight of the information security program. The TOC reviews information security metrics, oversees significant instances of non-compliance with the information security policy and monitors remediation of those instances, and reviews the appointment of the CISO for recommendation to the Board.
At the management level, the Enterprise Risk Management Committee ("ERMC") is primarily responsible for cybersecurity risk management. As it pertains to the information security program, the ERMC assesses and monitors information security risks and approves the information security policy on at least an annual basis. Certain instances of non-compliance with the information security policy are escalated to the ERMC, which may further escalate to the TOC as appropriate. Once escalated to a committee, the committee is responsible for overseeing related remediation.
Our CISO is responsible for the overall administration and execution of the information security program and reports to our Chief Risk Officer ("CRO"). Our CISO has over fifteen years of experience working in information security and risk for a variety of companies and organizations, including multiple financial institutions. The CISO monitors the security of, among other things, systems, applications, tools, databases, computers, websites, cloud infrastructure, vendor tools, and user access systems. The CISO performs an annual information security risk assessment, which, among other things, documents inherent risk levels and controls in place to manage those risks. The information security risk assessment is presented to the Board annually.
We strive to minimize the occurrence of cybersecurity incidents and the risks resulting from such incidents. However, when a cybersecurity incident does occur, the Company has in place an incident response program to guide our assessment of and response to the incident. The CISO coordinates the Company’s response to a cybersecurity incident, including investigating, recording and evaluating any potential, suspected or confirmed incidents involving non-public customer information or Company confidential information.
On a regular basis, the CISO discusses with the CRO information security risk issues, risk mitigation progress and developments and information security enhancement initiatives. The CISO reports to the TOC quarterly on information security developments and emerging risks, both in the industry and specific to the Company. The CISO and CRO report on the information security program, including the status of information security-related key risk indicators, to the TOC and the ERMC. The Information Security Policy is also approved by the TOC on an annual basis.
The Company employs third parties in certain aspects of its information security and cybersecurity risk management. For example, we utilize third parties to conduct certain security operations and maintain certain information security infrastructure. We have a Third Party Risk Management Policy, which addresses the identification, measurement, monitoring, and management of our third-party service provider relationships, including those related to information security. The Director of Third-Party Risk Management, along with the CISO, assess and monitor information risks posed by third parties and any non-compliance with the controls created to address such risks. With respect to cybersecurity incidents affecting our third-party service providers, the Director of Third-Party Risk Management works with our service providers to understand and document any incidents, along with managing the impact to us and reporting such incidents to the CRO, ERMC, TOC, and, if applicable, the Board.
To date, we have not incurred any material losses related to cybersecurity incidents. However, the risk management and governance processes described above may not be sufficient to prevent cybersecurity incidents, and we could incur substantial costs and suffer other negative consequences from cybersecurity incidents. See "Risk Factors" for more information on the cybersecurity risks facing the Company.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES
Our principal office is located in Bethesda, Maryland. All properties out of which the Company operates are leased properties. As of December 31, 2025, the Company and its subsidiaries operated out of 17 different locations (some of which have multiple leases); which include our principal corporate office, branch offices, lending centers and an operations center in Washington, D.C., Suburban Maryland and Northern Virginia metropolitan areas. Additional information with respect to premises and equipment and leases is presented in "Note 5 – Premises and Equipment" and "Note 6 – Leases" to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
As disclosed in "Note 19 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities" to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various legal proceedings incidental to their business in the ordinary course, and the disclosure set forth in "Note 19 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities" relating to certain legal matters is incorporated herein by reference.
Based on information currently available, the Company does not believe that the liabilities (if any) resulting from such legal proceedings will have a material effect on the financial position of the Company. However, in light of the inherent uncertainties involved in such matters, ongoing legal expenses or an adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could materially and adversely affect the Company’s financial condition and results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period, as well as its reputation.
As disclosed in “Note 19 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities” and “Note 25 - Subsequent Events”, subsequent to the Company’s issuance of its earnings release on January 21, 2026, the Company accrued a provision in the amount of $10 million relating to the investigation by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania referenced in Note 19.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF COMMON EQUITY
Market for Common Stock. The Company’s common stock is listed for trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the symbol "EGBN". During the year ended December 31, 2025, the average daily trading volume amounted to approximately 433,781 shares, an increase from approximately 310,723 shares during the year ended December 31, 2024. No assurance can be given that a more active trading market will develop or can be maintained. As of February 9, 2026, there were 30,363,447 shares of common stock outstanding, held by approximately 440 shareholders of record. Based on the most recent analysis, the Company believes beneficial shareholders number is approximately 20,686. As of February 9, 2026, our directors and executive officers own approximately 3% of our outstanding shares of common stock.
Dividends. The Company pays a regular quarterly cash dividend. In 2025, the Company declared four cash dividends with an aggregate value of $0.505 per share, or 15.3 million. The quarterly cash dividend amount was reduced to $0.165 in the third quarter of 2024 to reflect the company’s growth plans and was reduced further to $0.01 in the fourth quarter of 2025 to preserve capital as the Company addresses asset quality matters. Beginning in January 2025, the Company commenced declaring dividends at the time of the quarterly earnings release; previously, it declared dividends at the end of the quarter.
The payment of a cash dividend on common stock will depend largely upon the ability of the Bank, the Company’s principal operating business, to declare and pay dividends to the Company. Payment of dividends on the common stock will also depend upon the Bank’s earnings, financial condition and need for funds, as well as governmental policies and regulations applicable to the Company and the Bank. The payment of dividends in any period does not mean that the Company will continue to pay dividends at the current level, or at any other level.
Regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve Board" or "Federal Reserve") and Maryland law place limits on the amount of dividends the Bank may pay to the Company without prior approval. Prior regulatory approval is required to pay dividends which exceed the Bank’s net profits for the current year plus its retained net profits for the preceding two calendar years, less required transfers to surplus. Under Maryland law, dividends may only be paid out of retained earnings. State and federal bank regulatory

agencies also have authority to prohibit a bank from paying dividends if such payment is deemed to be an unsafe or unsound practice, and the Federal Reserve Board has the same authority over bank holding companies. As of December 31, 2025, the Bank could pay dividends to the Company to the extent of its earnings so long as it maintained required capital ratios.
The FRB has established requirements with respect to the maintenance of appropriate levels of capital by registered bank holding companies. Compliance with such standards, as presently in effect, or as they may be amended from time to time, could possibly limit the amount of dividends that the Company may pay in the future. The FRB has issued guidance regarding the situations in which a bank holding company should consider eliminating, reducing, or deferring its dividends, including if the net income available to shareholders for the past four quarters, net of dividends previously paid during that period, is not sufficient to fully fund the dividends; the prospective rate of earnings retention is not consistent with capital needs and the bank holding company’s overall current and prospective financial condition; or the bank holding company will not meet, or is in danger of not meeting, its minimum regulatory capital adequacy ratios. As a depository institution, the deposits of which are insured by the FDIC, the Bank may not pay dividends or distribute any of its capital assets while it remains in default on any assessment due the FDIC. The Bank currently is not in default under any of its obligations to the FDIC.
Issuer Repurchase of Common Stock. The Company did not repurchase any shares of its common stock during the year ended December 31, 2025.
See Item 12 - Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters for "Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans."
Stock Price Performance. The following table compares the cumulative total return on a hypothetical investment of $100 in the Company’s common stock from December 31, 2020 through December 31, 2025, with the hypothetical cumulative total return on the Nasdaq Stock Market Index (U.S. Companies), S&P 500 Index and the KBW Regional Banking Index for the comparable period, including reinvestment of dividends. The KBW Regional Banking Index seeks to reflect the performance of publicly traded companies that do business as regional banks or thrifts listed on all U.S. stock markets.

General
The Company provides general commercial and consumer banking services through the Bank, its wholly owned banking subsidiary, a Maryland chartered bank which is a member of the Federal Reserve. The Company was organized in October 1997 and to be the holding company for the Bank. The Bank was organized in 1998 as an independent, community oriented, full service banking alternative to the super regional financial institutions, which dominate the Company’s primary market area.
The Company’s philosophy is to provide superior, personalized service to its customers. The Company focuses on relationship banking, providing each customer with a number of services and becoming familiar with and addressing customer needs in a proactive, personalized fashion. The Bank currently has twelve branch offices (six in Suburban Maryland, three in Washington, D.C. and three in Northern Virginia), a principal corporate office, four lending centers (two are co-located with branches and one co-located in the principal corporate office) and one operations center. Refer to the "Business" section above, which describes in detail the various banking services offered.
General economic, political, social and health conditions affect financial markets, and therefore, our business. Although the economy experienced higher levels of inflation in the recent past, the inflationary pressure continued to subside during 2025 and the Federal Reserve decreased interest rates three times for a total of 75 basis points. Fiscal and monetary policies have a direct and indirect impact on the level and volatility of interest rates, liquidity of financial markets, the availability and cost of capital, and market conditions of financing. Actual real U.S. GDP

growth for 2025 was 2.2%, compared to 2.8% growth in 2024, as the economy continues to grow despite continuing to experience the effects of inflationary pressures and higher interest rates which were raised in 2022 and 2023. Unemployment increased through 2025 as the U.S. unemployment rate ended the year at 4.4%, up from 4.1% at the end of 2024.
Longer-term U.S. interest rates slightly increased in 2025, with the ten year U.S. Treasury rate averaging 4.29% in 2025 as compared to 4.21% in 2024. The yield curve steepened in 2025 as short-term rates decreased due to Federal Reserve rate cuts while long-term rates increased compared to 2024.
We believe the Company’s primary market, the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, continues to exhibit resilience relative to other parts of the country despite the volatility in the current economic environment. The Washington, D.C. metropolitan area maintains a diverse economy which includes the public sector, a large healthcare component, substantial business services and a highly educated work force. The private sector, in particular, the Leisure and Hospitality sector has seen some recovery in recent years following the adverse effects of the pandemic. The multi-family commercial real estate leasing sector, notwithstanding increased supply of units in the Bank’s market area, has held up relatively well, particularly for well-located close-in projects. While commercial real estate ("CRE") office properties continue to experience challenges and we recognized losses in that sector in 2025, the Company has remained focused on monitoring this sector and working with borrowers in order to mitigate further credit losses within our loan portfolio. Overall, we believe commercial real estate values have generally decreased and we continue to be cautious of the cap rates at which such assets are trading, resulting in conservative valuations.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had total assets of approximately $10.5 billion, total loans held for investment of $7.3 billion and total deposits of $9.1 billion. We have remained cognizant of the volatility in our industry, capital markets and interest rate markets. Loan balances decreased in the CRE segments in 2025 while we saw increases in our commercial and owner-occupied commercial real estate loans portfolio. Additionally, we experienced changes in our funding mix as increases in interest-bearing deposits offset a decrease in noninterest-bearing deposits. The yield on earning assets decreased in 2025. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the yield on earning assets decreased by 34 basis points (from 5.65% to 5.31%) while cost of funds decreased 42 basis points (from 3.59% to 3.17%).
The Company’s capital position remained strong in 2025 as a result of its strong retained earnings position, despite the impact of the increased loan provision and resulting 2025 net loss. The Company paid a quarterly dividend in each quarter of 2025; however, the quarterly cash dividend amount was reduced to $0.01 in the fourth quarter of 2025 to preserve capital as the Company addresses asset quality matters.
The Company believes its strategy of remaining growth-oriented, retaining talented staff and maintaining focus on seeking quality lending and deposit relationships will inure to the benefit of the organization's success. Additionally, the Company believes this strategy of relationship building has fostered future growth opportunities, as the Company’s reputation in the marketplace remains strong.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company's Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") and follow general practices within the banking industry. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the Consolidated Financial Statements; accordingly, as this information changes, the Consolidated Financial Statements could reflect different estimates, assumptions, and judgments. Certain policies have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions and judgments and, as such, have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported. Estimates, assumptions, and judgments are necessary when assets and liabilities are required to be recorded at fair value, when a decline in the value of an asset not carried on the financial statements at fair value warrants an impairment write-down or a valuation reserve to be established, or when an asset or liability needs to be recorded contingent upon a future event. Carrying assets and liabilities at fair value inherently results in more financial statement volatility.

Allowance for Credit Losses and Provision for Unfunded Commitments
A consequence of lending activities is that we incur credit losses, so we record an allowance for credit losses (the "ACL") with respect to loan receivables and a reserve for unfunded commitments (the "RUC") as estimates of those losses. The amount of the ACL on loans is based on management's assessment of current expected credit losses ("CECL") in the portfolio.
The amount of such losses will vary depending upon the risk characteristics of the loan portfolio as affected by economic conditions such as changes in interest rates, the financial performance of borrowers and regional unemployment rates, which management estimates by using a national forecast and estimating a regional adjustment based on historical differences between the two.
Management has significant discretion in making the judgments inherent in the determination of the provisions for credit loss, the ACL and the RUC. Our determination of these amounts requires significant reliance on estimates and significant judgment as to the amount and timing of expected future cash flows on loans, significant reliance on historical loss rates on homogenous portfolios, consideration of our quantitative and qualitative evaluation of economic factors and the reliance on our reasonable and supportable forecasts.
We estimate the ACL on loans using a quantitative model that uses a probability of default ("PD") / Loss Given Default ("LGD") cash flow method with an exposure at default ("EAD") model to estimate expected credit losses for our loan segments. The modeling of expected prepayment speeds is based on historical internal data and adjustments to account for loan-specific risk characteristics after pooling our loan portfolio based on similar risk characteristics.
The Company uses regression analysis of historical internal and peer data provided by a third-party service provider (as Company loss data alone is insufficient) to determine suitable loss drivers to utilize when modeling lifetime PD and LGD. This analysis also determines how expected PD will react to forecasted levels of the loss drivers. During 2024, management enhanced the cash flow model to incorporate additional macroeconomic variables. The four economic variables selected, national unemployment (original variable used), Commercial Real Estate ("CRE") Price Index, House Price Index and Gross Domestic Product ("GDP"), are incorporated by utilizing a Loss Driver Analysis approach that factors in historical losses, including during the Great Recession, of regional peer banks and the Bank. The updated model incorporates a weighting of three economic scenarios; baseline, upside and downside. The scenarios cover the four economic forecast variables, with each segment of the portfolio linked to two of these variables, depending on the segment. The loss driver analysis is spread over a reasonable and supportable period of 18 months and reverts back to a historical loss rate over twelve months on a straight-line basis over the loan's remaining maturity. Management leverages economic projections from reputable and independent third parties to inform its loss driver forecasts over the forecast period.
Loans that have evidence of credit deterioration are excluded from the loan segments subject to the quantitative model described above and are individually assessed.
The RUC represents the expected credit losses on off-balance sheet commitments such as unfunded commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. The RUC is determined by estimating future draws and applying the expected loss rates on those draws.
The ACL also includes an amount for inherent risks not reflected in the historical analyses. Relevant factors reflected in the qualitative component of the reserve include, but are not limited to, concentrations of credit risk, appraisal risk from volatility in the market, changes in underwriting standards, experience and depth of lending staff and trends in delinquencies.
Management has developed an analytical process to monitor the adequacy of the ACL. Our methodology for determining our ACL was developed utilizing, among other factors, the guidance from federal banking regulatory agencies and relevant available information from internal and external sources and relating to past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The process is being continually enhanced and refined based on periodic reviews. Material changes to these and other relevant factors may result in greater volatility to the reserve for credit losses, and therefore, greater volatility to our reported earnings. See "Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies", "Note 3 – Investment Securities" and "Note 4 – Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses" to the Consolidated Financial Statements, and the “Provision for Credit Losses” and "Allowance for Credit Losses" sections below for more information on the provision for credit losses and ACL for the loan portfolio.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Management uses non-GAAP measures because they provide information to investors about the underlying operational performance and trends of the Company. These disclosures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may be presented by other bank holding companies. Management compensates for these limitations by providing detailed reconciliations between GAAP information and the non-GAAP financial measures.
The table below reconciles the GAAP financial measures to the associated non-GAAP financial measures.

Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to the same period in 2024, was primarily due to higher provision for credit losses, partially offset by the corresponding income tax benefit and lower noninterest expense. See respective subsections below for the primary drivers of change and further discussion on net interest income, provision for credit losses, noninterest income, noninterest expenses, and income tax expenses.
When the impact of the provision is excluded, pre-provision net revenue ("PPNR"), a non-GAAP measure, was $98.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, as compared to $34.0 million for the same period in 2024. The increase was primarily due to lower noninterest expenses in the current period driven by the recognition of one-time goodwill impairment of $104.2 million during 2024 which resulted in higher noninterest expense in the prior period. For further discussion of drivers for this change, see the "Noninterest Expense" section below.
Refer to the "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" section for additional detail and a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.
The efficiency ratio, which measures the ratio of noninterest expense to total net revenue (the sum of net interest income and noninterest income), was 67.06% for 2025 compared to 88.99% for 2024. This improvement was primarily due to lower noninterest expenses in the current period driven by the recognition of one-time goodwill impairment of $104.2 million during 2024 which resulted in higher noninterest expense in the prior period.
Net interest margin, which measures net interest income as a percentage of earning assets, was flat at 2.37% for the year ended December 31, 2025 compared to 2.37% for the same period in 2024. For further information on the components and drivers of these changes, see the "Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin" section below.
Loans, which generally have higher yields than securities and other earning assets, represented 68% and 66% of average earning assets for years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Refer to the "Loan Portfolio" below for further discussion on loans.
Average investment securities for year ended December 31, 2025 were 18.3% of average earning assets compared to 20.2% for the same period in 2024. Interest-bearing deposits with other banks represented 14.0% and 14.1% of average earning assets for years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Refer to the "Investment Securities and Short-Term Investments" section below for further discussion on investment securities.
The ratio of common equity to total assets decreased to 10.78% as of December 31, 2025, compared to 11.02% as of December 31, 2024. For December 31, 2025, the return (loss) on average assets ("ROAA") was (1.16)%, compared to (0.38)% for the same period in 2024. Total shareholders’ equity was $1.13 billion as of December 31, 2025, compared to $1.23 billion as of December 31, 2024, a decrease of 8%. The return (loss) on average common equity for December 31, 2025 was (11.47)%, compared to (3.77)% for the same period in 2024. All these decreases were primarily driven by higher credit losses in 2025.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income is the difference between interest income on earning assets and the cost of funds supporting those assets. Earning assets are composed primarily of loans, investment securities and interest-bearing deposits with other banks and other short term investments. The cost of funds represents interest expense on deposits, customer repurchase agreements and other borrowings, which consist primarily of federal funds purchased, advances from secured financing arrangements, including the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta ("FHLB") and Discount Window, and senior notes. Noninterest-bearing deposits and capital are other components representing funding sources. Changes in the volume and mix of assets and funding sources, along with the changes in yields earned and rates paid, determine changes in net interest income.
The table below presents the average balances and rates of the major categories of the Company's assets and liabilities. Included in the tables are measurements of interest rate spread and margin. Interest rate spread is the difference (expressed as a percentage) between the interest rate earned on earning assets less the interest rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. While the interest rate spread provides a quick comparison of earnings rates versus cost of funds, management believes that margin, together with net interest income, provides a better measurement of performance. The net interest margin (as compared to net interest spread) includes the effect of noninterest-bearing sources in its calculation. Net interest margin is net interest income expressed as a percentage of average earning assets.

Net interest income decreased in 2025 compared to 2024, primarily due to a larger decrease in interest-earning assets compared to interest-bearing liabilities. Additionally, average loan yields and interest bearing deposits with other banks and short term investments yields were lower in 2025 compared to the prior year, partially offset by lower rates on interest-bearing liabilities.
Net interest margin remained flat in 2025 compared to 2024. The cost of funds on interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 42 basis points from 3.59% for 2024 to 3.17% for 2025, while the yield on interest-earning assets had a decrease of 34 basis points from 5.65% for 2024 to 5.31% for 2025.

Provision for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses represents the amount of expense charged to current earnings to record the ACL on loans and the ACL on HTM investment securities. The amount of the ACL on loans is based on management's assessment of current expected credit losses in the portfolio. Those factors include historical losses based on internal and peer data, economic conditions and trends, the value and adequacy of collateral, volume and mix of the portfolio, performance of the portfolio, and internal loan processes of the Company.
The table below presents a breakdown of the current provision for credit losses included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | For the Year Ended December 31, |
| (dollars in thousands) | | | | | | 2025 | | 2024 | | 2023 |

| Net charge offs in ACL | | | | | | $ | (248,178) | | | $ | (38,555) | | | $ | (18,850) | |
The change in the provision for credit losses on the loan portfolio for the December 31, 2025 was primarily attributable to the replenishment of the reserve following net charge-offs, as reported in the table above, and an increase in the qualitative reserve for CRE office loans ("office overlay").
Net charge-offs of $248.2 million during 2025 represented 3.22% of average loans held for investment, an increase from net charge-offs of $38.6 million in 2024, which represented 0.48% of average loans held for investment. During 2025, we began executing on a revised strategy for resolving criticized and classified loans with the goal of accelerating dispositions and reducing asset quality risk. In furtherance of this strategy, we obtained updated valuations in 2025 on the underlying collateral for certain loans and incorporated new information about borrower performance. Updated valuations obtained during the year reflected the rapidly changing commercial real estate market in the D.C. metro area, in many cases showing substantial declines. This information resulted in significant charge offs during 2025, primarily on office loans and other real estate loans with underlying office exposure and to a lesser extent on land, multifamily, and senior living loans.
Additionally, certain loans were transferred to loans held-for-sale ("HFS") in 2025, which resulted in additional charge-offs to record those loans at their fair value at the time of transfer. Total charge-offs in 2025 related to loans that were transferred to HFS or sold during 2025 were $176.5 million. We believe our actions in 2025 reflect a disciplined approach to credit risk management that incorporates updated market and borrower data into our loss estimates.
The office overlay increased in 2025 relative to 2024, impacted by updated assumptions associated with the PD and LGD rates as well as downward risk rating migration, as further discussed in the "Allowance for Credit Losses" section below. Although loans were transferred to held-for-sale, reducing the CRE office loan population, the resulting charge-offs on those loans informed higher loss factors on the remaining loans addressed by the office overlay, contributing to its elevated level for 2025. The increase in the office overlay for 2025 reflects management’s assessment of continued uncertainty in the CRE market, particularly within the office sector, as well as potential lag effects from interest-rate sensitivity, valuation declines, and refinancing risk. Management continues to monitor trends, including occupancy, capitalization rates, and market liquidity, across key metropolitan areas and may adjust qualitative reserves further as these factors evolve.
The ACL coverage ratio remains within management’s target range and reflects the current asset quality profile, though further provision expense may be required if collateral values or borrower performance continue to deteriorate.
The provision for credit losses for the held-to-maturity securities portfolio was recorded primarily on several corporate bonds. During the year ended December 31, 2025, there was a reversal of provision for credit losses of $295 thousand for the held-to-maturity securities portfolio, compared to a reversal of provision expense of $645 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2024.
The provision for credit losses for unfunded commitments is presented separately on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. This provision considers the probability that unfunded commitments will fund, among other factors.

There was a provision expense of $1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to a reversal of provision of $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to higher unfunded commitments in our commercial and industrial portfolio during the current period.
Refer to the discussion under "Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" above and in "Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the Consolidated Financial Statements for an overview of the methodology management employs on a quarterly basis to assess the adequacy of the allowance and the provisions charged to expense. Also, refer to the table in the "Allowance for Credit Losses" section which reflects activity in the ACL.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income includes service charges on deposits, gain/(loss) on sale of investment securities and loans, income from Bank-Owned Life Insurance ("BOLI") and other income. The table below summarizes the comparative noninterest income.

| Total | | $ | 29,308 | | | $ | 19,939 | | | $ | 9,369 | | | 47 | % |
The increase in total noninterest income in 2025 as compared to 2024 was primarily due to increases in the cash surrender value of BOLI investments in 2025 driven by additional BOLI investment of $200 million made in the first quarter of 2025, partially offset by elevated losses on the sale of HFS loans and AFS securities.
Noninterest Expense
Total noninterest expense includes salaries and employee benefits, premises and equipment expenses, marketing and advertising, data processing, legal, accounting and professional fees, FDIC insurance assessments and other expenses. The table below summarizes the comparative noninterest expense.

| Total | | $ | 200,655 | | | $ | 274,634 | | | $ | (73,979) | | | (27) | % |
The decrease in total noninterest expense for 2025 as compared to 2024, was primarily due to no goodwill impairment during the current period, partially offset by elevated other expenses driven by disposition costs associated with the sale of certain HFS loans and further valuation adjustment on the remaining HFS portfolio during the fourth quarter of 2025. Additionally, a legal contingency of $10 million was recognized in 2025 for an outstanding legal matter. See "Note 19 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities" for further details.
The major components of other expenses include regulatory assessment fees, director compensation, real estate taxes, and insurance expenses. Additionally, other expenses were elevated for the current period primarily due to $6.3 million in disposition costs related to HFS loan sales and $8.4 million in valuation adjustment on the remaining HFS portfolio.

As a percentage of average assets, total noninterest expense was 1.69% for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to 2.19% in 2024, primarily due to no goodwill impairment during the current period.
Income Tax Expense
For the December 31, 2025, income tax benefit was $58.1 million, compared to income tax expense of $16.8 million for the December 31, 2024. The switch from income tax expense in 2024 to income tax benefit in 2025 was primarily due to a pre-tax loss of $196.2 million in 2025.
The effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2025 was 29.63%. The effective tax rate represents the percentage of income tax benefit against the pre-tax loss in 2025. The effective tax rate for 2025 varies from the 21% statutory rate primarily due to the tax benefit from the solar investment tax credits purchased at discount, low-income housing tax credit equity investment, tax-exempt interest income and tax-exempt income from the increase in the cash surrender value of BOLI.

The decrease in total assets as of December 31, 2025 from December 31, 2024 was primarily due to declines in securities and loans balances from sales, maturities/liquidations and paydowns. This decrease in total assets was partially offset by additional BOLI investment during the year.
Investment securities, net of the allowance for credit losses, were $1.8 billion as of December 31, 2025 as compared to $2.2 billion as of December 31, 2024, a 17% decrease, primarily driven by maturities and paydowns on both AFS and HTM securities, and sales of AFS securities. The Bank does not currently plan to reinvest these proceeds back into the investment securities portfolio. Refer to the "Investment Securities and Short-Term Investments" section below for further discussion on investment securities.
Loans held for investment ("HFI") decreased by $654.4 million (from $7.9 billion as of December 31, 2024 to $7.3 billion as of December 31, 2025) while HFS loans increased by $90.7 million. Refer to the "Loan Portfolio", "Loan Maturity" and other loans-related sections below for further discussion on loans.
Total shareholders’ equity as of December 31, 2025 was $1.13 billion as compared to $1.23 billion as of December 31, 2024, a 8% decrease. The decrease in shareholders’ equity in 2025 was primarily due to net loss from operations of $138.1 million, and payment of cash dividends of $15.3 million, offset by $52.3 million in other comprehensive income. The ratio of common equity to total assets was 10.78% as of December 31, 2025 as compared to 11.02% as of December 31, 2024. Book value per share was $37.26 as of December 31, 2025, a 8.23% decrease from $40.60 as of December 31, 2024.
In order to be considered well-capitalized, the Bank must have a common equity tier one capital ("CET1") risk based capital ratio of 6.5%, a Tier 1 risk-based ratio of 8.0%, a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.0% and a leverage ratio of 5.0%. The Company and the Bank exceeded all these requirements and satisfy the capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of CET1 capital as of December 31, 2025. Failure to maintain the required capital conservation buffer would limit the ability of the Company and the Bank to pay dividends, repurchase shares or pay discretionary bonuses.
The Company's capital ratios remain substantially in excess of regulatory minimums and buffer requirements. The total risk based capital ratio was 14.33% as of December 31, 2025, as compared to 15.86% as of December 31, 2024. The CET1 risk based capital ratio was 13.07% as of December 31, 2025, as compared to 14.63% as of December 31, 2024. The tier 1 risk based capital ratio was 13.07% as of December 31, 2025, as compared to 14.63% as of December 31, 2024. The tier 1 leverage ratio was 9.72% as of December 31, 2025, as compared to 10.74% as of December 31, 2024. Refer to "Capital Resources and Adequacy" section below for further discussion on our capital.
Investment Securities and Short-Term Investments
This section and "Note 3 – Investment Securities" to the Consolidated Financial Statements provide additional information regarding the Company’s investment securities categorized as "available-for-sale" or AFS and as "held-to-maturity" or HTM. The Company classifies its investment securities as either AFS or HTM. The AFS classification requires that investment securities be recorded at fair value with any difference between the fair value and amortized cost (the purchase price adjusted by any discount accretion or premium amortization) reported as a component of shareholders’ equity (accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)), net of deferred income taxes, while securities classified as HTM are recorded and presented at their amortized cost.

As of December 31, 2025, the AFS investment portfolio decreased by 23% and HTM investment portfolio decreased by 9%, as compared to December 31, 2024, primarily driven by maturities and paydowns on both AFS and HTM securities, and sales of AFS securities. The investment portfolio is managed to achieve goals related to liquidity, income, interest rate risk management and to provide collateral for repurchase agreements and borrowings from the FHLB and FRB discount window.
The Company had a net unrealized loss in AFS securities of $78.6 million with a deferred tax asset of $19.3 million as of December 31, 2025, as compared to a net unrealized loss in AFS securities of $141.5 million with a deferred tax asset of $34.8 million as of December 31, 2024 driven by lower market interest rates and securities approaching maturity.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had $38.5 million and $44.8 million, respectively, of unamortized unrealized losses outstanding following the transfer of investment securities from AFS to HTM in 2022. These unrealized losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss and are amortized through interest income as a yield adjustment over the remaining term of the securities.
As of December 31, 2025, there was no single issuer of securities owned by the Company with a book or fair value exceeding 10% of the Company’s shareholders’ equity, other than the U.S. Government, U.S. agencies and U.S. Government-sponsored enterprises.

As of December 31, 2025, $66.5 million of corporate bonds were subordinated debt from other financial institutions. Corporate bonds generally, and subordinated debt in particular, pose credit risk such that if any of these issuers were to enter bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, we could experience losses that may be material to operating results and our financial condition. We may also experience increases in provisions for credit losses, adversely affecting our earnings, if the creditworthiness of the issuers declines, whether due to idiosyncratic factors, economic conditions generally or other unforeseen factors or events.
The following tables provide information, on an amortized cost basis, for AFS and HTM portfolios regarding the expected maturity and weighted-average yield of the investment portfolio as of December 31, 2025. Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. Yields on tax exempt securities have not been calculated on a tax equivalent basis.

Loan Portfolio
In its lending activities, the Company seeks to develop and expand relationships with clients whose businesses and individual banking needs will grow with the Bank. We believe superior customer service, local decision making and accelerated turnaround time from application to closing are significant factors in growing the loan portfolio and meeting the lending needs in the markets served, while maintaining sound asset quality.
Loans held for investment were $7.3 billion as of December 31, 2025, as compared to $7.9 billion as of December 31, 2024, a decrease of $654.4 million or 8.2%. During the year ended December 31, 2025, certain loans, primarily income producing commercial real estate loans, were reclassified from HFI to HFS loans. This reclassification resulted in net charge-offs of $132.3 million in order to bring the loans to the lower of cost or fair value of $201.4 million at the time of transfer. During the twelve months ended December 31, 2025, seven HFS loans were sold, resulting in a loss of $4.7 million. There were $90.7 million in loans held for sale as of December 31, 2025 and none as of December 31, 2024.
The loan portfolio mix continues to evolve as the Bank has experienced a reduction in income producing commercial real estate loans and owner-occupied construction loans, offset by increases in commercial and owner-occupied commercial real estate loans. These shifts reflect our strategic focus on reshaping the portfolio toward relationship-driven commercial lending and asset classes aligned with our long-term risk-adjusted return objectives.
Market rates in 2025 for our new loan originations on average have been fairly consistent with the market rates at the end of 2024, even though short-term interest rates decreased. In 2025 the Federal Reserve adjusted short-term interest rates downwards three times for a total decrease of 75 basis points. We continue to see opportunities for growth in the commercial lending market and our processes for evaluating these opportunities are designed to ensure they are subject to reasonable underwriting standards, including appropriate cash flow necessary to support debt service. Following origination, we continue to monitor our borrowers' business plans and assess primary and alternative sources for loan repayment and, if necessary, obtain collateral or additional collateral to mitigate credit loss in the event of default.
The Bank has a large portion of its loan portfolio related to real estate, with 80% consisting of commercial real estate and real estate construction loans as of December 31, 2025. Non-owner occupied commercial real estate and commercial and residential construction represented 57% of the loan portfolio while the remaining 23% is represented by the "owner occupied - commercial real estate" and "construction - C&I (owner occupied)" loans.

As noted above, a significant portion of the loan portfolio consists of commercial, construction and commercial real estate loans, primarily in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area and is secured by real estate or other collateral in that market. While our basic market is the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, the Bank has made loans outside that market where the borrower or its key decision makers have a meaningful relationship with the Bank and generally operate in or are based in our market. Although all of these loans are made to a diversified pool of unrelated borrowers across numerous businesses, adverse developments in the real estate market could continue

to have an adverse impact on this portfolio of loans and the Company’s earnings and financial position. Management believes that the commercial real estate concentration risk is mitigated by diversification among the types and characteristics of real estate collateral properties, sound underwriting practices and ongoing portfolio monitoring and market analysis.
The Company's concentration in the Washington, D.C. metro area includes "Washington's Maryland Suburbs," which comprises Frederick, Prince George's and Montgomery counties, and "Northern Virginia," which comprises Alexandria, Arlington, Falls Church, Fairfax, Loudoun and Prince William counties.

As part of its lending strategy, the Company maintains a substantial portfolio of CRE loans, with $5.7 billion and $6.5 billion, or 78.3% and 81.5% of total loans, of amortized cost outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Management meets regularly in order to monitor its existing CRE loan portfolio and to evaluate the pipeline for CRE loan investment. Income producing CRE loans collateralized by office properties comprised approximately $576.1 million and $862.2 million, or 7.9% and 10.9% of total loans, as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Office loans within Washington, D.C., Washington's Maryland Suburbs and Northern Virginia were $545.8 million and $795.0 million, or 7.5% and 10.0% of total loans, as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

The Company has executed balance sheet optimization actions to reduce commercial real estate loan concentration, including actions to reduce exposure to short- and intermediate-term valuation risk in the office portfolio. These steps reflect our strategic focus on improving portfolio resilience and risk-adjusted returns. While we remain disciplined in evaluating additional opportunities to further address concentration and valuation risk, future decisions or actions, if made or taken, could continue to result in elevated credit costs and may materially impact our results in the periods in which such decisions or actions are made or executed. There can be no assurance that any additional initiatives will be undertaken or, if pursued or undertaken, will achieve their intended results.

The federal banking regulators have issued guidance for those institutions which are deemed to have concentrations in commercial real estate lending. Pursuant to the supervisory criteria contained in the guidance for identifying institutions with a potential commercial real estate concentration risk, institutions which have (1) total reported loans for construction, land development and other land acquisitions which represent 100% or more of an institution’s total risk-based capital; or (2) total commercial real estate loans representing 300% or more of the institution’s total risk-based capital and the institution’s commercial real estate loan portfolio has increased 50% or more during the prior 36 months are identified as having potential commercial real estate concentration risk. Institutions which are deemed to have concentrations in commercial real estate lending are expected to employ heightened levels of risk management with respect to their commercial real estate portfolios and may be required to hold higher levels of capital.
As of December 31, 2025, non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans (including construction, land and land development loans) represented 336.6% of consolidated risk based capital. Even though we saw a decline in that segment over the past 36 months of 9.1% compared to the threshold laid out in the regulatory guidance of 50% growth, we continue to expect the heightened supervisory expectations to continue to apply to us given the federal banking regulators' general focus on commercial real estate exposures at banks. Construction, land and land development loans represented 92.1% of consolidated risk based capital. Management has extensive experience in commercial real estate lending and has implemented and continues to maintain risk management procedures and underwriting criteria with respect to its commercial real estate portfolio designed to address the risks inherent in that asset class. Loan monitoring practices include but are not limited to periodic stress testing analysis to evaluate changes to cash flows, owing to interest rate increases and declines in net operating income. Nevertheless, we may be required to maintain higher levels of capital as a result of our commercial real estate concentrations, which could require us to raise additional capital, increasing our funding costs or diluting our shareholders, or take other action to retain capital, adversely affecting shareholder returns. The Company seeks to manage the risks relating to commercial real estate and its capital adequacy through the development and implementation of its Capital Policy and Capital Plan, the preparation of pro-forma projections including stress testing and the development of internal minimum targets for regulatory capital ratios that are subject to approval by the Board of Directors (the "Board") and in excess of well capitalized ratio requirements.
The Company monitors industry and collateral concentrations to avoid loan exposures to a large group of similar industries or similar collateral. An industry for this purpose is defined as a group of businesses that are engaged in similar activities and have similar economic characteristics that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic or other conditions.
Certain directors and executive officers have had loan transactions with the Company. Such loans were made in the ordinary course of the Company’s lending business; were made on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable loans with third parties; and, in the opinion of management, did not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. Refer to "Note 4 – Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses" to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further detail regarding related party loans.

Allowance for Credit Losses
The ACL is an estimate based on many factors which reflect management’s assessment of the risk in the loan portfolio. Those factors include economic conditions and trends, the value and adequacy of collateral, volume and mix of the portfolio, performance of the portfolio and internal loan processes of the Company and Bank. A full discussion of the accounting for ACL is contained in "Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the Consolidated Financial Statements and activity in the ACL is contained in "Note 4 – Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses" to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Also, refer to "Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" above for further discussion of the methodology which management employs to maintain an adequate ACL, as well as "Provision for Credit Losses" above for a discussion of the Company's calculation of the provision for credit losses during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
The ACL for loans as of December 31, 2025 was $159.6 million, which reflected a increase of $45.2 million from $114.4 million as of December 31, 2024, reflecting a provision for credit losses of $293.4 million and $248.2 million in net charge-offs during the year ended December 31, 2025. Net charge-offs of $248.2 million during the year ended December 31, 2025 represented 3.22% of average loans held for investment, an increase from net charge-offs of $38.6 million during same period in 2024, which represented 0.48% of average loans held for investment. The ACL represented 2.19% of total loans as of December 31, 2025 as compared to 1.44% as of December 31, 2024.
Management believes the ACL as of December 31, 2025 remains adequate to absorb estimated losses inherent in the portfolio following the loss recognition on high-risk loans concentrated in the commercial real estate office segment. The losses recognized in 2025 were primarily due to updated valuations on the underlying collateral for certain loans and the incorporation of new information about borrower performance. The updated valuations obtained during the year reflected the rapidly changing commercial real estate market in the D.C. metro area, in many cases showing substantial declines. This resulted in higher provisioning and an elevated rate of charge-offs during the year. As of December 31, 2025, the allowance represented 149% of nonperforming loans as compared to 55% as of December 31, 2024. The increase in the ACL for loans at December 31, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024, was primarily due to increased reserves related to the Bank's CRE office overlay. The overlay increased as charge-offs taken during the current period and negative risk rating migration within the CRE office portfolio were incorporated into the calculation. Negative risk rating migration within the CRE office portfolio during 2025 was primarily a result of continued market deterioration and the incorporation of new information about borrower performance. In addition, the ACL on individually assessed loans modestly increased as updated valuation information was received, primarily on loans that migrated to nonperforming status during the current period.
As part of its comprehensive loan review process, the Bank’s Risk Committee evaluates loans which are past due 30 days or more. The Committee makes an assessment of the conditions and circumstances surrounding delinquent and potential problem loans. The Bank’s loan policy requires that loans be placed on nonaccrual if they are 90 days past due or if their collection is deemed to be doubtful, unless they are well secured and in the process of collection. The Credit Administration department analyzes the status of development and construction projects, including sales activities and utilization of interest reserves in order to assess potential increased levels of risk which may require additional reserves.

As the loan portfolio and ACL review processes continue to evolve there may be changes to elements of the allowance and this may have an effect on the overall level of the allowance maintained. Management conducted sensitivity analysis on the CECL model by using Moody's upside and downside scenarios across the forecast period.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had $106.9 million and $208.7 million, respectively, of loans classified as nonperforming. Please refer to "Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the Consolidated Financial Statements under the caption "Loans" for a discussion of the Company’s policy regarding individual evaluation of loans to record a provision for expected credit losses. Please refer to the "Nonperforming Assets" section for a discussion of problem and potential problem assets.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, loans rated special mention had an amortized cost of $268.9 million and $244.8 million, respectively, and loans rated substandard had an amortized cost of $514.5 million and $426.4 million, respectively. The increase in substandard loans was primarily attributable to additions in CRE loans, particularly in income producing - commercial real estate as weaknesses in borrower performance were identified during our credit monitoring processes.
As of December 31, 2025, 99% and 79% of special mention and substandard loans, respectively, were current, with the remainder either 30 or more days past due or nonperforming. Based upon their status as potential problem loans, loans risk rated special mention or substandard receive heightened scrutiny. Additionally, the Company's credit loss allowance methodology incorporates increased reserve factors for office loans considered potential problem loans as compared to the general portfolio.
Management recognizes the risks inherent in the CRE portfolio and remains focused on maintaining disciplined portfolio management and a robust risk rating process. The Bank has implemented enhanced analytical procedures for evaluating credit requests, refined its risk rating framework, and strengthened ongoing monitoring of the loan portfolio and the adequacy of the ACL, particularly for CRE and construction loans, including those secured by office properties. These efforts include the use of stress testing analyses. Additionally, fair value assessments of loans acquired are included in our analytical procedures. The loan portfolio analysis process is ongoing and proactive to support the Company's objective of maintaining a portfolio of quality credits and quickly identifying weaknesses before they become more severe.
Portfolio management and the risk rating process are core parts of the Company’s credit risk management, including for commercial real estate loans. The Bank conducts analysis of credit requests and the management of problem credits. The Bank has developed and implemented analytical procedures for evaluating credit requests, has refined the Company’s risk rating system and has adopted enhanced monitoring of the loan portfolio and the adequacy of the ACL, in particular on its commercial real estate and construction loans (including those collateralized by office properties). These analyses include stress testing. The loan portfolio analysis process is ongoing and proactive to support the Company's objective of maintaining a portfolio of quality credits and quickly identifying weaknesses before they become more severe.

The allocation of the allowance as of December 31, 2025 includes the allowance for credit losses of $19.6 million against individually assessed loans of $106.9 million, as compared to allowance for credit losses of $17.1 million against individually assessed loans of $208.7 million as of December 31, 2024. In addition, the Company's performing office coverage ratio, which calculates the ACL attributable to loans collateralized by performing office properties as a percentage of total loans, was 12.89% and 3.81% as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The allocation of the allowance to each category is not necessarily indicative of future losses or charge-offs and does not restrict the usage of the allowance to absorb losses in any category. The Company has updated its allocation methodology to better reflect the ACL attributable to loan categories and collateral types. Conforming changes have been made to prior period amounts. These reclassifications had no effect on net income (loss) or shareholders' equity.

Nonperforming Assets
The Company’s nonperforming assets are comprised of the amortized cost of loans delinquent 90 days or more, and nonaccrual HFI loans, which includes the nonperforming portion of loan modifications, and the carrying value of other real estate owned ("OREO"). Nonperforming assets totaled $109.0 million as of December 31, 2025, representing 1.04% of total assets, as compared to $211.4 million as of December 31, 2024, representing 1.90% of total assets. The decrease was primarily due to charge offs of nonaccrual loans, including on loans transferred to HFS, and changes in nonperforming loans discussed below. As of December 31, 2025, nonaccrual HFS loans totaling $90.7 million were excluded from nonperforming assets since they are carried at the lower of cost or fair value and are not reflected in credit metrics.
The Company had no accruing loans that were 90 days or more past due as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Management prioritizes remaining attentive to early signs of deterioration in borrowers’ financial conditions and to taking action designed to mitigate risk. The Company places loans on nonaccrual status if it deems collection to be doubtful. The Company believes, based on its loan portfolio risk analysis that its ACL at 2.19% of total loans as of December 31, 2025, is adequate to absorb expected credit losses within the loan portfolio at that date.
Total nonperforming loans had an amortized cost of $106.9 million as of December 31, 2025, representing 1.47% of total loans, compared to $208.7 million as of December 31, 2024, representing 2.63% of total loans. This decrease was primarily driven by the reduction of nonperforming loans in the income producing - commercial real estate category.
The CECL standard allows for institutions to evaluate individual loans in the event that the asset does not share similar risk characteristics with its original segmentation. This can occur due to credit deterioration, increased collateral dependency or other factors leading to impairment. In particular, the Company individually evaluates loans on nonaccrual status, though it may individually evaluate other loans or groups of loans as well if it determines they no longer share similar risk with their assigned segment. Reserves on individually assessed loans are determined by one of two methods: the fair value of collateral or the discounted cash flow. Fair value of collateral is used for loans determined to be collateral dependent, and the fair value represents the net realizable value of the collateral, adjusted for sales costs, commissions, senior liens, etc. Discounted cash flow is used on loans that are not collateral dependent where structural concessions have been made and continuing payments are expected. The continuing payments are discounted over the expected life at the loan’s original contract rate and include adjustments for risk of default.
Nonperforming assets include loans that the Company considers to be individually assessed. Individually assessed loans are defined as those as to which we believe it is probable that we will not collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Loans that do not share risk characteristics consistent with similar loans are evaluated on an individual basis. For collateral dependent financial assets where the Company has determined that foreclosure of the collateral is probable, or where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the Company expects repayment of the financial asset to be provided substantially through the sale of the collateral, the ACL is measured based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the amortized cost basis of the asset as of the measurement date. When repayment is expected to be from the operation of the

| | |
collateral, expected credit losses are calculated as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the financial asset exceeds the NPV from the operation of the collateral. When repayment is expected to be from the sale of the collateral, expected credit losses are calculated as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the financial asset exceeds the fair value of the underlying collateral less estimated cost to sell. The ACL may be zero if the fair value of the collateral at the measurement date exceeds the amortized cost basis of the financial asset.
Generally, collateral valuations associated with individually assessed loans are updated on not less than an annual basis. As part of our credit risk management process, we periodically reassess the value of collateral supporting commercial real estate loans, particularly in periods of market volatility. Normally, we obtain updated valuations when borrower performance suggests that repayment may become dependent on the underlying real estate and we determine that existing collateral values may not reflect current market conditions. This approach focuses on loans where cash flow coverage has deteriorated and where guarantor support appears uncertain or insufficient. In some cases when a loan is downgraded late in a quarter, a new valuation may not be obtained until the following quarter.
In evaluating whether a new valuation is warranted, we consider a range of factors, including trends in local property markets, changes in capitalization rates and lease terms, the availability and terms of financing for comparable properties, and observable shifts in supply-demand dynamics. We also assess property-specific factors such as deferred maintenance or improvements, zoning or regulatory changes, environmental matters, and other conditions that may materially influence value. Passage of time alone does not drive our valuation decisions; rather, we apply a judgment-based framework informed by current market data and asset-specific analysis.
The objectives of this process are to have our collateral estimates reflect current market conditions and to support timely and appropriate credit loss recognition as conditions evolve.
The Company evaluates all loan modifications according to the accounting guidance to determine if the modification results in a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan. Loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties that result in a direct change in the timing or amount of contractual cash flows include situations where there is principal forgiveness, interest rate reductions, other-than-insignificant payment delays, term extensions, and combinations of the listed modifications. Modifications with terms not as favorable to the Company as the terms for comparable loans to other customers with similar collection risk who are not refinancing or restructuring a loan with the Company and which have a direct impact on cash flows are considered modified loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. A loan that is considered a modified loan may be evaluated for disclosure if the commitment is $500 thousand or greater. Management strives to identify borrowers in financial difficulty early and may work with them to modify their loan to more affordable terms before their loan reaches nonaccrual status, foreclosure or repossession of the collateral to minimize economic loss to the Company.
Commercial and consumer loans modified are closely monitored for delinquency as an early indicator of possible future default. If loans modified in a loan restructuring subsequently default, the Company evaluates the loan for possible further impairment. The allowance may be increased, adjustments may be made in the allocation of the allowance, or partial charge-offs may be taken to further write-down the carrying value of the loan.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Bank modified 40 loans with a total amortized cost of $277.6 million as of December 31, 2025 (3.8% of the loan portfolio). These loans received extended loan terms of between approximately 4 to 36 months.
As of December 31, 2025, the payment status of 40 loans that were modified in the preceding twelve months, included 32 loans with a total amortized cost basis $232.0 million which were performing under their modified terms, 3 loans with a total amortized cost basis of $14.0 million which were 30-89 days past due and 5 loans with a total amortized cost basis of $31.6 million which were on nonaccrual status .
Management, from time-to-time and in the ordinary course of business, implements renewals, modifications, extensions and/or changes in terms of loans to borrowers who have the ability to repay on reasonable market-based terms and are not experiencing financial difficulty. For example: (1) adverse weather conditions may create a short term cash flow issue for an otherwise profitable retail business which suggests a temporary interest only period on an amortizing loan; (2) there may be delays in absorption on a real estate project which reasonably suggests extension of the loan maturity at market terms; or (3) there may be maturing loans to borrowers with demonstrated repayment ability who are not in a position at the time of maturity to obtain alternate long-term financing.
Included in nonperforming assets as of December 31, 2025 was OREO of $2.1 million, consisting of three foreclosed properties, compared to OREO of $2.7 million, consisting of five foreclosed properties as of December 31, 2024. OREO properties are carried at the lower of cost or at fair value less estimated costs to sell.

It is the Company's policy to generally obtain third party appraisals prior to foreclosure and to obtain updated third party appraisals on OREO properties generally not less frequently than annually. Generally, the Company obtains updated appraisals or evaluations where it has reason to believe, based upon market indications (such as comparable sales, a scenario in which the Company is considering legitimate offers below carrying value, broker indications and similar factors), that the current appraisal does not accurately reflect current value. There were six OREO sales in the year ended December 31, 2025 and two in the year ended December 31, 2024, generating proceeds of $14.9 million and $656 thousand, respectively.
The table below presents the amounts of nonperforming assets, including loans at amortized cost and OREO at the lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell.

(1) Excludes nonaccrual HFS loans totaling $90.7 million and zero as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Significant variation in the amount of nonperforming loans may occur from period to period because the amount of nonperforming loans depends largely on the condition of a relatively small number of individual credits and borrowers relative to the total loan portfolio.
As of December 31, 2025, there were $514.5 million of substandard loans. Based upon their status as potential problem loans, loans risk rated special mention or substandard receive heightened scrutiny and ongoing intensive risk management. Additionally, the Company's loan loss allowance methodology incorporates increased reserve factors for certain loans considered potential problem loans as compared to the general portfolio.
Other Earning Assets
As part of its employee benefits and financing strategies, the Company has invested in BOLI policies. BOLI serves as a tax-efficient asset designed to offset the cost of employee benefit obligations. The Company views BOLI as a long-term investment to help fund future benefit expenses.
As of December 31, 2025, the cash surrender value of BOLI totaled $335.2 million, compared to $115.8 million as of December 31, 2024. The increase reflects an additional BOLI investment of $200 million made in the first quarter of 2025 through premium payments as well as earnings on the policies during 2025.
Deposits and Other Borrowings
The principal sources of funds for the Bank are core deposits, consisting of demand deposits, money market accounts, Negotiable Order of Withdrawal ("NOW") accounts, savings accounts, and certificates of deposits. The deposit base includes transaction accounts, time and savings accounts and accounts which customers use for cash management which provide the Bank with a source of fee income and cross-marketing opportunities, as well as an attractive source of lower cost funds. To meet funding needs during periods of high loan demand and seasonal variations in core deposits, the Bank utilizes alternative funding sources such as brokered deposits, secured borrowings from the FHLB, and federal funds purchased lines of credit from correspondent banks.

No single depositor represented more than 10% of total deposits as of December 31, 2025. The ten largest depositors not associated with brokered pass-through relationships represented approximately 18% of total deposits as of December 31, 2025. The Company maintains a significant deposit relationship with a third-party payments processor, whose business results in deposit inflows and outflows on an ongoing basis, which contributes to variations in period end balances compared to average deposit balances.
Average total deposits for the year ended December 31, 2025 were $10.2 billion, as compared to $9.5 billion for the same period in 2024, a 7% increase.
Time deposits were $3.0 billion as of December 31, 2025, which was 33% of deposits. This was an increase from $2.8 billion as of December 31, 2024, which was 31% of deposits. The increase in time deposits was primarily driven by growth in the Company's digital acquisition channel.
The table below summarizes time deposits in excess of $250 thousand by maturity.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | As of |
| (dollars in thousands) | | December 31, 2025 | | December 31, 2024 |
| Three months or less | | $ | 252,100 | | | $ | 189,817 | |
| More than three months through six months | | 391,299 | | | 387,849 | |
| More than three months through twelve months | | 305,557 | | | 710,021 | |
| Over twelve months | | 521,701 | | | 421,530 | |
| Total | | $ | 1,470,657 | | | $ | 1,709,217 | |
Time deposits with balances of $250 thousand or more represented 16% and 19% of total deposits as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. See "Note 9 – Deposits" to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the maturities of time deposits and the Average Balances Table in the "Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin" section for the average rates paid on interest-bearing deposits.
The Bank offers brokered time deposits generally in denominations of less than $250 thousand from brokerage networks. The Bank participates in CDARS and the ICS programs within IntraFi Network, LLC ("IntraFi"), which provide for reciprocal ("two-way") transactions among banks to maximize FDIC insurance. ICS also allows for the sale of deposits into the IntraFi Network ("One-Way Sale") which provides FDIC insurance for the depositor without reciprocal deposits returned to the Bank. Deposits sold through the IntraFi One-Way Sale process are not included in the Bank’s deposit totals. The sale of ICS deposits allows the Bank to moderate the fluctuation of deposit balances. As of December 31, 2025, the Bank sold de minimis deposits through the IntraFi One-Way Sale network. The total of reciprocal deposits as of December 31, 2025 was $1.7 billion (19% of total deposits) as compared to $1.4 billion (16% of total deposits) as of December 31, 2024. These sources are believed by the Company to represent a reliable and cost efficient alternative funding source for the Bank, but there can be no assurance that they will continue to be adequate or appropriate to meet our liquidity needs. The Bank also is able to receive one way CDARS deposits and participates in IntraFi’s Insured Network Deposit Program ("IND"). The Bank had $385.7 million and $894.7 million of IND brokered deposits as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. However, to the extent that the condition or reputation of the Company or Bank deteriorates, or to the extent that there are significant changes in market interest rates which the Company and Bank do not elect to match, or if aggregate funding available to banks changes due to changes in the marketplace, we may experience an outflow of brokered deposits or difficulty with obtaining them in the future. In that event, we would be required to obtain alternate sources for funding, which may increase our cost of funds and negatively impact our net interest margin.

We have used brokered deposits and intend to continue to use brokered deposits as one of our funding sources. As of December 31, 2025, total brokered deposits were $3.3 billion, or 36% of total deposits, compared to $4.0 billion, or 44% as of December 31, 2024. These brokered deposits were comprised of savings, money market and other interest-bearing transaction accounts of $2.4 billion and $2.7 billion, and time deposits of $0.8 billion and $1.3 billion as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company uses the Call Report definitions for regulatory reporting by the Bank to classify its deposits as brokered deposits. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, total deposits included estimated totals of $2.3 billion and $2.2 billion of uninsured deposits, which represented 25% and 24% of total deposits, respectively.
The decrease in noninterest bearing demand deposits was offset by the increase in time deposits during the year ended December 31, 2025, due to continued elevated interest rates in 2025. Average noninterest bearing deposits over total deposits for years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were 19% and 21%, respectively. The Bank also offers business NOW accounts and business savings accounts to accommodate those customers who may have excess short term cash to deploy in interest earning assets.
The Company used to offer a sweep account, or "customer repurchase agreement," allowing qualifying businesses to earn interest on short-term excess funds, which were not suited for either a certificate of deposit or a money market account. The Company discontinued this product offering in November 2025. The balances in these accounts were zero as of December 31, 2025 compared to $33.2 million as of December 31, 2024.
The Bank raises and renews time deposits through its branch network, for its public funds customers, and through brokered networks to meet the needs of its community of savers and as part of its interest rate risk management and liquidity planning.

(1)The average daily balance and maximum month-end balance are calculated on the principal balance on the borrowings.
Outstanding short-term advances and borrowings are part of the overall asset liability strategy to support loan growth.
The Company had no outstanding balances under its federal funds lines of credit provided by correspondent banks (which are unsecured) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had no outstanding balances in FHLB advances, compared to $490.0 million as of December 31, 2024. Outstanding FHLB advances are secured by collateral consisting of specifically pledged marketable investment securities, a blanket lien on qualifying loans in the Bank’s commercial mortgage, residential mortgage and home equity loan portfolios.
On September 30, 2024, the Company closed a private placement of its 10.00% senior unsecured debt totaling $77.7 million maturing on September 30, 2029 (the "2029 Senior Notes" or "Original Notes"). As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the carrying value of these 2029 Senior Notes were $76.4 million and $76.1 million, respectively, which reflected $1.2 million and $1.6 million, respectively, in unamortized deferred financing costs that are being amortized over the life of the 2029 Senior Notes.
In connection with the issuance of the 2029 Senior Notes, the Company also entered into a registration rights agreement dated September 30, 2024 with the purchasers of the 2029 Senior Notes ("Registration Rights Agreement"). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company filed an exchange offer registration statement with the SEC to exchange the Senior Notes for substantially identical notes registered under the Securities Act ("Exchange Notes"). The terms of the Exchange Notes are identical to the terms of the Original Notes, except that the transfer restrictions and registration rights applicable to the Original Notes do not apply to the Exchange Notes. The Company completed the exchange offer on January 16, 2025.
Commitments and Contractual Obligations
The Company has various financial obligations, including contractual obligations and commitments that may require future cash payments. The table below shows details on these fixed and determinable obligations.

(1)Excludes accrued interest payable as of December 31, 2025.
(2)Borrowed funds represent long-term borrowings.
(3)The Bank has outstanding obligations under its current core data processing contract that expires in June 2029.
(4)The Bank has the option of terminating the George Mason University ("George Mason") agreement at the end of contract year 15 (effective June 30, 2030). Should the Bank elect to exercise its right to terminate the George Mason contract, its contractual obligation would decrease by $3.6 million for the option period (years 16-20).
(5)Low Income Housing Tax Credits ("LIHTC") expected payments for unfunded affordable housing commitments.
The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers and to reduce its own exposure to fluctuations in interest rates. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. They involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheets. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments.
Various commitments to extend credit are made in the normal course of banking business. Letters of credit are also issued for the benefit of customers. These commitments are subject to loan underwriting standards and geographic boundaries consistent with the Company’s loans outstanding.
Unfunded loan commitments are agreements whereby the Bank has made a commitment to lend to a customer as long as there is satisfaction of the terms or conditions established in the contract, and the borrower has accepted the commitment in writing. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee before the commitment period is extended. In many instances, borrowers are required to meet performance milestones in order to draw on a commitment as is the case in construction loans, or to have a required level of collateral in order to draw on a commitment as is the case in asset based lending credit facilities. Collateral obtained varies and may include certificates of deposit, accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, residential and CRE. Since commitments may expire without being drawn, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
Unfunded lines of credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of the terms or conditions established in the contract. Lines of credit generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since lines of credit may expire without being drawn, the total unfunded line of credit amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
Letters of credit include standby and commercial letters of credit. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. Letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Bank to guarantee the performance by the Bank's customer to a third party. Standby letters of credit generally become payable upon the failure of the customer to perform according to the terms of the underlying contract with the third party. Standby letters of credit are generally not drawn. Commercial letters of credit are issued specifically to facilitate commerce and typically result in the commitment being drawn when the underlying transaction is consummated between the customer and a third party. The contractual amount of these letters of credit represents the maximum potential future payments guaranteed by the Bank. The Bank has recourse against the customer for any amount it is required to pay to a third party under a letter of credit, and holds cash and or other collateral on those standby letters of credit for which collateral is deemed necessary. As of December 31, 2025, approximately 69% of the dollar amount of standby letters of credit was collateralized.
The table below displays loan commitments outstanding and lines and letters of credit.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| (dollars in thousands) | | 2025 | | 2024 |
| Unfunded loan commitments | | $ | 1,482,325 | | | $ | 1,318,133 | |

| | | | |
| Total | | $ | 1,622,876 | | | $ | 1,475,489 | |
Unfunded loan commitments increased by $164.2 million in 2025 compared to 2024, primarily due to new commercial and industrial loans commitments during the year as the Bank advanced its strategic goals.
The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument 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. See "Note 18 – Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk" to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a summary list of loan commitments as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

In connection with deposit guarantees, the Bank collateralizes certain public funds using qualified investment securities.
With the exception of these off-balance sheet arrangements, the Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, capital expenditures or capital resources, that is material to investors.
Liquidity Management
Liquidity is a measure of the Company’s and Bank’s ability to meet loan demand and to satisfy depositor withdrawal requirements in an orderly manner. The Bank’s primary sources of liquidity consist of cash and cash balances due from correspondent banks, excess reserves at the Federal Reserve, loan repayments and other short-term investments, maturities and sales of investment securities, income from operations and new core deposits into the Bank. Approximately 53% of the Company's investment portfolio of debt securities is held as available-for-sale which allows flexibility to generate cash from sales as needed to meet ongoing cash needs. These securities can also be utilized as pledged assets that provide secondary liquidity through the form of additional available borrowings. These sources of liquidity are considered primary and are supplemented by the ability of the Company and Bank to borrow funds or issue brokered deposits, which are termed secondary sources of liquidity. Investment securities that are classified as held-to-maturity can also be used as collateral to pledge against additional borrowings.
The Company believes it maintains sufficient primary and secondary sources of liquidity to fund its operations. As of December 31, 2025, primary sources of liquidity were $1.7 billion, comprising interest-bearing deposits with other banks and other short-term investments and unencumbered AFS securities. Secondary sources of liquidity as of December 31, 2025 were $4.4 billion, which included the FHLB unused availability, other insured brokered deposit sweep programs, unpledged HTM securities, federal funds lines, and the FRB Discount Window. As of December 31, 2025, under the Company's liquidity formula, it had $6.1 billion of primary and secondary liquidity sources. Management believes the amount is adequate to meet current and projected funding needs.
The table below summarizes the Company's primary and secondary sources of liquidity available.

unsecured funds under one-way CDARS and ICS brokered deposits in the amount of $1.1 billion, against which there was $38 million outstanding as of December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025, the Bank also has custodial agreements with various broker-dealers through IntraFi's IND program which provided $386.0 million of brokered deposits.
As of December 31, 2025, the Bank was also eligible to draw advances from the FHLB up to $1.3 billion based on assets pledged as collateral to the FHLB, against which the Bank borrowed none as of December 31, 2025.
The Bank may enter into repurchase agreements with broker-dealers provided adequate collateral exists. The Bank also has a back-up borrowing facility through the Discount Window at the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond ("Federal Reserve Bank"). This facility, which can be used to borrow up to $1.4 billion, is collateralized with specific loan assets and investment securities pledged to the Federal Reserve Bank. It is anticipated that, except for periodic testing, this facility would be utilized for contingency funding only. There can be no assurance, however, that these alternative sources of liquidity will continue to be available or will be sufficient to meet our ongoing liquidity needs.
The Bank's aggregate borrowing capacity as of December 31, 2025 was $3.0 billion, which consists of $1.3 billion borrowing capacity from FHLB, $1.4 billion borrowing capacity from the Federal Reserve's Discount Window as discussed above, and $315.7 million of unencumbered HTM securities available to pledge to the FHLB or Discount Window.
The loss of deposits, including through disintermediation, is one of the primary risks to liquidity. Disintermediation occurs most commonly when rates rise and depositors withdraw deposits seeking higher rates in alternative savings and investment sources than the Bank may offer. The Bank regularly compares deposit interest rates and makes adjustments from time to time to ensure its interest rate offerings are competitive.
There is a risk that the cost of funds will increase significantly as the Bank competes for deposits or that some deposits would be lost if rates were to increase and the Bank elected not to remain competitive with its deposit rates. Under those conditions, the Bank believes that it is well positioned to use other sources of funds such as FHLB borrowings, brokered deposits, repurchase agreements and federal funds lines of credit to offset a decline in deposits in the short run, but the use of such sources may negatively impact net interest margin and earnings. The continuing elevated cost of funding has negatively impacted our net interest margin.
There can be no assurance that the mix of sources of funds available to us at any particular time in the future will be adequate to meet our future liquidity needs. The market for customer and brokered deposits is highly competitive and the risk of disintermediation is high, particularly in a high interest rate environment. Most of our noninterest-bearing deposits are operating deposits or compensating balances that are held in connection with lending relationships. The potential outflow of such deposits is a risk and may require the Bank to pay competitive rates of interest, which could significantly and negatively impact the Bank’s interest expense and net interest margin. Over the long-term, an adjustment in assets and change in business emphasis could compensate for a potential loss of deposits. The Bank also maintains a marketable investment portfolio to provide flexibility in the event of liquidity needs. The Asset Liability Committee ("ALCO") has adopted policy guidelines, which emphasize the importance of core deposits, adequate asset liquidity and a contingency funding plan.
Capital Resources and Adequacy
The assessment of capital adequacy depends on a number of factors such as asset quality and mix, liquidity, earnings performance, changing competitive conditions and economic forces, stress testing, regulatory measures and policy, as well as the overall level of growth and complexity of the balance sheet. The adequacy of the Company’s current and future capital needs is monitored by management on an ongoing basis. Management seeks to maintain a capital structure that will assure an adequate level of capital to support anticipated asset growth and to absorb potential losses.
The federal banking regulators have issued guidance for those institutions, which are deemed to have concentrations in commercial real estate lending. Pursuant to the supervisory criteria contained in the guidance for identifying institutions with a potential commercial real estate concentration risk, institutions which have total reported loans for construction, land development and other land acquisitions which represent 100% or more of an institution’s total risk-based capital; or total commercial real estate loans representing 300% or more of the institution’s total risk-based capital; or the institution’s commercial real estate loan portfolio has increased 50% or more during the prior 36 months are identified as having potential commercial real estate concentration risk. Institutions which are deemed to have concentrations in commercial real estate lending are expected to employ heightened levels of risk management with respect to their commercial real estate portfolios and may be required to hold higher levels of capital. The Company, like many community banks, has commercial real estate loans. Although

| | |
growth in that segment declined over the past 36 months and did not exceed the 50% threshold laid out in the regulatory guidance, we expect the heightened supervisory expectations to continue to apply to us given the federal banking regulators’ general focus on commercial real estate exposures at banks.
Construction, land and land development loans represented 92.1% of total capital as of December 31, 2025, which no longer exceeded the regulatory concentration threshold, compared to 122.6% as of December 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2025 the Company exceeded the total commercial real estate loans threshold as it represented 336.6% of total capital compared to 373.3% as of December 31, 2024. Management has extensive experience in commercial real estate lending, and has implemented and continues to maintain heightened risk management procedures and strong underwriting criteria with respect to its commercial real estate portfolio.
Loan monitoring practices include but are not limited to periodic stress testing analysis to evaluate changes to cash flows, owing to interest rate increases and declines in net operating income. Nevertheless, as our commercial real estate concentration fluctuates each quarter, we may be required to maintain higher levels of capital, which could require us to obtain additional capital and may adversely affect shareholder returns. The Company seeks to manage the risks relating to commercial real estate and its capital adequacy through the development and implementation of its Capital Policy and Capital Plan, the preparation of pro-forma projections including stress testing and the development of internal minimum targets for regulatory capital ratios that are subject to approval by the Board and in excess of well capitalized ratios.
The Company and the Bank are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective action regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors and the regulators can lower classifications in certain cases. Failure to meet various capital requirements can initiate regulatory action that could have a direct material effect on the financial statements.
As of December 31, 2025, the capital position of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, the Bank, continue to exceed regulatory requirements and well-capitalized guidelines. The primary indicators relied on by bank regulators in measuring the capital position are four ratios as follows: Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, Total risk-based capital ratio, the Leverage ratio and the CET1 ratio. Tier 1 capital consists of common and qualifying preferred shareholders’ equity less goodwill and other intangibles. Total risk-based capital consists of Tier 1 capital and the qualifying portion of the ACL. Risk-based capital ratios are calculated with reference to risk-weighted assets, which are prescribed by regulation. The measure of Tier 1 capital to average assets for the prior quarter is often referred to as the leverage ratio. The CET1 ratio is the Tier 1 capital ratio but excluding preferred stock.
The Prompt Corrective Action ("PCA") regulations provide five categories, including well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized; however, these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If a bank is adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to, among other things, accept, renew or roll-over brokered deposits. If a bank is undercapitalized, capital distributions and growth and expansion are limited, and plans for capital restoration are required. If a bank is not well-capitalized, interest rate restrictions paid on deposits may apply.
The FRB and the FDIC have adopted the Basel III Rules implementing the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision's capital guidelines for U.S. banks. Under the Basel III Rules, the Company and Bank are required to maintain a CET1 ratio of 4.5% and a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% of risk-weighted assets, effectively resulting in a minimum CET1 ratio of 7.0%; a minimum ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 6.0%, or 8.5% with the fully phased in capital conservation buffer; a minimum total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 10.5% with the fully phased-in capital conservation buffer; and a minimum leverage ratio of 4.0%. The Basel III Rules also increased risk weights for certain assets and off-balance-sheet exposures. As of December 31, 2025, the Company and the Bank exceeded all these thresholds.
The ability of the Company to continue to grow is dependent on its earnings and those of the Bank, the ability to obtain additional funds for contribution to the Bank’s capital, through additional borrowings, through the sale of additional common stock or preferred stock or through the issuance of additional qualifying capital instruments, such as subordinated debt. The capital levels required to be maintained by the Company and Bank may be impacted as a result of the Bank’s concentrations in commercial real estate loans.
The Company’s capital ratios were all well in excess of requirements established by the Federal Reserve Board and the Bank’s capital ratios were in excess of those required to be classified as a "well capitalized" institution under the PCA provisions of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act.

Federal bank and holding company regulations, as well as Maryland law, impose certain restrictions on capital distributions, including dividend payments and share repurchases by the Bank, as well as restricting extensions of credit and transfers of assets between the Bank and the Company. The Company announced a regular quarterly cash dividend on January 21, 2026 of $0.01 per share to shareholders of record on February 2, 2026, paid on February 13, 2026. The quarterly cash dividend amount was reduced to $0.01 in the fourth quarter of 2025 to preserve capital as the Company addresses asset quality matters.
Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices
The Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of operations. Unlike most industrial companies, nearly all of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on our performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the price of goods or services.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Asset/Liability Management of Interest Rate Risk
A fundamental risk in banking is exposure to market risk, specifically interest rate risk, since a bank’s earnings are largely dependent on net interest income. The Bank’s ALCO formulates and monitors the management of interest rate risk through policies and guidelines established by it and overseen by the Audit Committee and the full Board of Directors and through review of detailed reports discussed quarterly. In its consideration of risk limits, the ALCO considers the impact on earnings and capital, the level and direction of interest rates, liquidity, local economic conditions, outside threats and other factors. Banking is generally a business of managing the maturity and repricing mismatch inherent in its asset and liability cash flows to provide stable net interest income growth consistent with the Company’s profit objectives.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company's net interest margin remained relatively flat at 2.37% when compared to the same period in 2024 and continues to manage its overall interest rate risk position.
The Company, through its ALCO and ongoing financial management practices, monitors the interest rate environment in which it operates and adjusts the rates and maturities of its assets and liabilities to remain competitive and to achieve its overall financial objectives subject to established risk limits.

During 2025, the U.S. Treasury yield curve steepened from the 2 year and 10 year points, while remaining inverted in very short tenors less than a year. As compared to the year 2024, the average two year U.S. Treasury rate in 2025 decreased by 56 basis points from 4.37% to 3.81%. The average five year U.S. Treasury rate decreased by 21 basis points from 4.13% to 3.92% while the average ten year U.S. Treasury rate increased by 8 basis points from 4.21% to 4.29%. The Company’s cost of interest bearing deposits decreased by 47 basis points across its interest-bearing deposits, which comprise 84% of its total deposits, as of December 31, 2025.
The loan portfolio decreased 8.2% during the twelve months ended 2025. The re-pricing duration on the loan portfolio was 9 months as of December 31, 2025 and 11 months as of December 31, 2024, with fixed-rate loans amounting to 33.4% and 38.1% of total loans as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Variable and adjustable rate loans comprised 66.6% and 61.9% of total loans as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Variable rate loans are generally indexed to the Secured Overnight Funding Rate ("SOFR") or the Wall Street Journal prime interest rate, while adjustable rate loans are indexed primarily to the five year U.S. Treasury interest rate.
As of December 31, 2025, the amortized cost basis, net of allowance, of the investment portfolio decreased by $437.7 million, or 18.6%, as compared to the balance as of December 31, 2024. The table below presents the percentage mix of securities in the investment portfolio.

In the current and expected future interest rate environment, the Company has been maintaining its investment portfolio to manage the balance between yield and risk in its portfolio of MBS. Further, the Company has been principally collecting cash flows from the investment portfolio to reduce brokered deposits. As of December 31, 2025, the amortized cost less allowance of the investment portfolio decreased by $437.7 million, or 18.6%, as compared to the balance as of December 31, 2024.
The duration of the deposit portfolio increased to 22 months as of December 31, 2025 from 11 months as of December 31, 2024. This increase was attributable to a shift in deposit mix, an increase in time deposits and modeling assumption updates. The Company experienced a total deposit increase of $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 as compared to a total loan decrease of $654.4 million for the same period. Refer to the "Deposits and Other Borrowings" section above for further discussion of deposits and borrowings.
The net unrealized loss before income tax on the AFS securities portfolio was $78.4 million and $141.5 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, the net unrealized loss position represented 7.4% of the investment portfolio's book value.
Management relies on the use of models in order to measure the expected future impact on interest income of various interest rate environments, as described below. Through its modeling, the Company makes certain estimates that may vary from actual results. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully achieve its optimal asset liability mix, given competitive pressures, customer preferences and the inability to forecast future interest rates and movements with complete accuracy.
In 2025, the Federal Reserve instituted 75 basis points of interest rate cuts. Yields on interest-earning assets and interest-bearing deposits decreased as a result of the Federal Reserve rate cuts. Refer to the MD&A section "Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin" for a detailed discussion on net interest income and yields on interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

A portion of the of the Company's variable and adjustable rate loans may contain interest rate floors and may provide asset yield protection in a low-interest rate environment; however, they are also expected to delay the impact of increases to market rates on interest income until such floors have been exceeded. In the year ended December 31, 2025, interest rate floors have not been relevant in the current interest rate environment since most variable rate loans are well above their floor rate. The weighted average rate of the Company's variable rate loans had a decrease of approximately 56 basis points from December 31, 2024 to December 31, 2025.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had a portfolio of $2.5 billion of variable and adjustable rate loans that were subject to interest rate floors with a weighted average rate of 6.66%, which was a 58 basis points decrease from December 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2025, $300.2 million or 4.12% of loans held by the Company were earning interest at their floor rate, as compared to $123.6 million or 1.56% as of December 31, 2024.
The Company employs a net interest income simulation model on a monthly basis to monitor its interest rate sensitivity and risk and to model its balance sheet cash flows and the effects in different interest rate scenarios. The model utilizes current balance sheet data and attributes and is adjusted for assumptions as to investment maturities including prepayments, loan prepayments, interest rates, and deposit decay rates. The data is then subjected to a "shock test" which assumes a simultaneous change in interest rates up and down 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis points, along the entire yield curve, but not below zero. The results are analyzed as to the impact on net interest income over the next twelve and twenty-four month periods and the economic value of equity. Further discussion of the limitations of this analysis are listed below and in Item 1A. Risk Factors, and in other periodic and current reports filed by the Company with the SEC.
Our rate risk modeling showed minimal net interest margin expansion in an increased interest rate environment while showing moderate net interest margin compression in a declining interest rate environment. The model's prediction in a rising rate environment is the result of increases in both interest income on variable and adjustable rate loans and interest expense on its deposit liabilities, based on our funding needs, market conditions and certain contractual obligations but with no changes in the mix of assets or liabilities or the spreads we are able to earn. The opposite is true in a falling interest rate environment as decreases in both interest income on variable and adjustable rate loans and interest expense on deposit liabilities drive modest margin compression. The model also assumes a stable interest rate environment after the programmed changes in the yields, which assumes repricing of assets and liabilities as scheduled in a stable environment, which may be quite different than real world conditions.
For the analysis presented below, as of December 31, 2025, the change in interest rates on interest-bearing deposits was less than the change in market interest rates with a floor of 0 basis points. The Bank also has deposits with contractual rate terms that mean these deposits will change 100 basis points for every 100 basis points change in market rates. Thus, the overall measure of the correlation between all deposit costs and market rate changes is less than 100%. The Company previously utilized the assumption for its analysis as of December 31, 2024 that all deposit rates changed 100 basis point for a 100 basis point change in market rates.
Because competitive market behavior does not necessarily track the trend of interest rates but at times moves ahead of financial market influences, the change in the cost of liabilities may be different than anticipated by the interest rate risk model. If this were to occur, the effects of a rising or declining interest rate environment may not be in accordance with management’s expectations.
As quantified in the table below, the Company’s analysis as of December 31, 2025 shows the effect on net interest income over the next 12 months, as well as the effect on the economic value of equity when interest rates are shocked up and down 100, 200, 300 and 400 basis points. As of December 31, 2025, the repricing duration of (a) the investment portfolio was 3.8 years, (b) the loan portfolio 0.8 years, (c) the interest-bearing deposit portfolio was 1.2 years, and (d) the borrowed funds portfolio was 3.1 years.

The table below displays the result of the simulation analysis on the asset and liability balances.

| (400) | | (10.4)% | | | | (25)% | | (15.3)% | | (32)% |
The decrease in 12-month net interest income of 2.4% given a 100 basis point decrease in market interest rates as of December 31, 2025 compared to a increase of 0.9% for the same period in 2024. In contrast to 2024, primarily due to modeling enhancements and balance sheet composition changes, our analysis shows that we will experience an increase in our economic value of equity and in net interest income with an increase in interest rates. The changes in net interest income and the economic value of equity in higher, and lower, interest rate shock scenarios as of December 31, 2025 are not believed to be excessive and are within policy limits.
As part of the Company’s ongoing enhancement of the simulation analysis, the Company has been making updates to its model to incorporate, among other things, improvements to certain assumptions, as well as assumptions related to deposits. The difference in the results of the simulation analysis between the fourth quarter of 2025 and the third quarter of 2025 is attributable to these model updates.
Certain shortcomings are inherent in the method of analysis presented in the foregoing table. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or repricing periods, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. Additionally, certain assets, such as adjustable-rate mortgage loans, have features that limit changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the loan. Further, in the event of a change in interest rates, prepayment and early withdrawal levels could deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the tables. Finally, the ability of many borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the event of a significant interest rate increase.
While an instantaneous parallel shift in interest rates was used in this analysis to provide an estimate of exposure under these scenarios, we believe that a non-immediate parallel shifts in interest rates would have a more modest impact. Further, the earnings simulation model does not take into account factors such as future balance sheet growth, changes in product mix, changes in yield curve relationships, the various rate indexes do not move in parallel (e.g., SOFR, Fed Funds), hedging activities we might take and changing product spreads that could mitigate or exacerbate any potential beneficial or adverse impact of changes in interest rates.
Another key factor to consider is the behavior of our deposit portfolio. The projected impact on net interest income in the table above assumes no change in deposit portfolio size or mix from the baseline forecast in alternative rate environments. In higher rate scenarios, any customer activity resulting in the replacement of low-cost or noninterest-bearing deposits with higher cost deposits or market-based funding would reduce the assumed benefit of those deposits. The projected impact on net interest income in the table above also assumes a static non-maturity deposit beta which may not be an accurate predictor of actual deposit rate changes realized in scenarios of smaller and/or non-parallel interest rate movements.

Each of the above analyses may not, on its own, be an accurate indicator of how our net interest income or economic value of equity will be affected by current and future changes in interest rates. Income associated with interest-earning assets and costs associated with interest-bearing liabilities may not be affected uniformly by changes in interest rates. In addition, the magnitude and duration of changes in interest rates may have a significant impact on net interest income. In addition, certain assets, such as adjustable-rate mortgage loans, have features (generally referred to as interest rate caps and floors) that limit changes in interest rates. Prepayment and early withdrawal levels also could deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the maturity of certain instruments. ALCO reviews each of the above interest rate sensitivity analyses along with several different interest rate scenarios as part of its responsibility to provide a satisfactory, consistent level of profitability within the framework of established liquidity, loan, investment, borrowing and capital policies.
Interest Rate and Balance Sheet Risk Management
Management actively monitors the Company’s exposure to interest rate risk arising from the composition and duration profile of its balance sheet. Our objective is to maintain a stable and predictable earnings and capital profile by mitigating the impact of interest‑rate volatility on both net interest income and the economic value of equity. Consistent with this objective, the Company employs a macro balance sheet hedging program designed to manage interest rate risk at the portfolio level rather than through instrument‑specific hedges.
In 2025, the Company reinitiated the use of derivative instruments to hedge macro interest rate risk. This decision reflects management’s reassessment of the Company’s asset‑liability profile. Management determined that reestablishing a macro hedging program was prudent to mitigate potential variability in earnings and capital arising from interest‑rate movements.
Hedging Strategy and Risk Management Framework
Our macro hedging approach incorporates derivatives — primarily interest rate swaps — to align the interest‑rate sensitivity of assets and liabilities with the Company’s risk appetite. Macro hedging enables management to address exposures that evolve dynamically as new assets and liabilities are originated and existing positions mature, consistent with regulatory expectations that hedging strategies reflect material trends and uncertainties affecting future performance.
Under U.S. GAAP, the Company applies the hedge accounting framework under ASC 815, as amended by ASU 2017‑12, which expands the range of permissible hedging strategies and enhances the alignment between accounting outcomes and risk management activities. The Company designates qualifying hedges where appropriate and evaluates hedge effectiveness in accordance with ASC 815’s criteria. Refer to "Note 8 – Derivatives and Hedging Activities" to the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion on the Company's derivative instruments and hedging activities.

ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA
1.Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (PCAOB ID 173)
Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Eagle Bancorp, Inc.
Bethesda, Maryland
Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Eagle Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), changes in shareholders’ 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 "financial statements"). We also have audited 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 (COSO).
In our opinion, the 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. Also 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.
Basis for Opinions
The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements, 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 Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("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 financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.
Our audits of the financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the 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 financial statements. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting 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 audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Definition 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 financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. 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 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 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.
Critical Audit Matter
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the 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 financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of this critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Allowance and Provision for Credit Losses on Loans
The allowance for credit losses ("ACL") is an accounting estimate of the expected credit losses in the HFI loans portfolio over the life of an exposure (or pool of exposures). Expected credit losses are measured on a collective (pooled) basis for financial assets with similar risk characteristics. The ACL is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans as described in Notes 1 and 4 of the consolidated financial statements. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount.
The Company estimates expected credit losses for loans using a methodology based on a loan-level probability of default ("PD") and Loss Given Default ("LGD") cash flow method that is applied using an exposure at default model. Cash flow projections are at the loan level wherein payment expectations are adjusted for estimated prepayment speeds, PD rates, and LGD rates. The expected prepayment speeds are based on historical internal data. These historical loss rates are then modified to incorporate a reasonable and supportable forecast of future losses at the portfolio segment level.
The ACL estimation process for loans applies economic forecast scenarios over a reasonable and supportable period of 18 months and reverts back to a historical loss rate over twelve months on a straight-line basis over the loan's remaining maturity. These historical loss rates are then modified to incorporate a reasonable and supportable forecast of future losses at the portfolio segment level, as well as any necessary qualitative adjustments.
We determined that auditing the allowance for credit losses on loans was a critical audit matter because of the extent of auditor judgment applied and significant audit effort to evaluate the significant subjective and complex judgments made by management throughout the application processes, including the need to involve our valuation services specialists.
The principal considerations resulting in our determination included the following:
• Significant auditor judgment in evaluating the selection and application of the reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic variables and reasonableness of other model assumptions.
• Significant auditor judgment and effort in evaluating the reasonableness of the qualitative adjustments used in the model computation.
• Significant audit effort related to the completeness and accuracy of the high volume of data used to develop assumptions and in the model computation.
Our audit procedures to address the critical audit matter included:
Testing of internal controls over:
• The Company’s significant model assumptions and judgments, reasonable and supportable forecasts, and information systems.
• The Company’s preparation and review of the allowance for credit losses calculation, including the relevance and reliability of data used as the basis for adjustments related to the qualitative factors, the development and reasonableness of qualitative adjustments, and the mathematical accuracy and appropriateness of the overall calculation.

• The completeness and accuracy of historical inputs, loan data used in the development of the PD and LGD assumptions, and the use of third-party data in the computation.
Substantively testing management’s estimate, which included:
• Assessing the reasonableness of assumptions and judgments related to the PD and LGD rates, with the assistance of our valuation specialists, by comparing the resulting historical loss experience to a group of the Company’s peers.
• Evaluating the reasonableness of management’s judgments in the selection and application of reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic variables.
• Evaluating management’s process for developing the qualitative factors, including evaluating management’s judgments and assumptions for reasonableness.
• Assessing the relevance and reliability of data used to develop qualitative factors.
• Evaluating the mathematical accuracy of the PD and LGD rates on a pooled loan level with the assistance of valuation specialists, including the completeness and accuracy of loan data used in the model.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Operations
Eagle Bancorp, Inc. (the "Parent") and its subsidiaries (together with the Parent, the "Company"), through EagleBank (the "Bank"), conduct a full service community banking business, primarily in Northern Virginia, Suburban Maryland and Washington, D.C. The primary financial services offered by the Bank include real estate, commercial and consumer lending, as well as traditional deposit services. The Bank is also active in the origination of small business loans. The guaranteed portion of small business loans, guaranteed by the Small Business Administration ("SBA"), is typically sold to third party investors in a transaction apart from the loan’s origination.
The Bank offers its products and services through twelve banking offices, four lending centers and various digital capabilities, including web-based and smartphone-enabled banking services. The Bank has three active direct subsidiaries: Bethesda Leasing, LLC, Eagle Insurance Services, LLC and Landroval Municipal Finance, Inc. Bethesda Leasing, LLC holds title to and operates real estate owned and acquired through foreclosure. Eagle Insurance Services, LLC, which previously offered access to insurance products and services through a referral program with a third party insurance broker, continues to receive fee income in connection with such program. Landroval Municipal Finance, Inc. focuses on lending to municipalities by buying debt on the public market as well as direct purchase issuance.
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company with all significant intercompany transactions eliminated. EagleBank, a Maryland chartered commercial bank, is the Company’s principal subsidiary. The investment in subsidiaries is recorded on the Company’s books (Parent Only) on the basis of its equity in the net assets of the subsidiary (see "Note 23 – Parent Company Financial Information" for further details).
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP") and to general practices in the banking industry. The Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, that in the opinion of management are necessary to present fairly the results for the periods presented. Certain reclassifications have been made to 2024 amounts previously reported to conform to the 2025 presentation. Reclassifications had no effect on net income (loss) or shareholders' equity.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates and such differences could be material to the consolidated financial statements. The allowance for credit losses ("ACL") is a material estimate that is particularly susceptible to significant variance in the near-term.
Out-of-Period Adjustment
The Company recorded an out-of-period adjustment in 2025 that had the net effect of increasing retained earnings and decreasing additional paid-in capital by $8.7 million. The adjustment is the result of an identified error in the accounting for shares withheld to cover employee tax liabilities related to vested stock-based compensation. The Company assessed the individual and aggregate impact of this adjustment on the current year and all prior periods and determined that the cumulative effect of the adjustments was not material to 2025 and did not result in a material misstatement to any previously issued annual or quarterly financial statements. Consequently, the Company recorded the adjustment in 2025 and has not revised any previously issued amounts in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents and Statements of Cash Flows
For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks and interest-bearing deposits with other banks that have an original maturity of three months or less. Net cash flows are reported for customer loan and deposit transactions, interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions, federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements and other borrowings.

Interest-bearing Deposits in Other Financial Institutions
Interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions mature within one year and are carried at cost.
Investment Securities
The Company recognizes acquired securities on the trade date. Investment securities comprise debt securities, which are classified depending on the Company's intent and ability to hold the securities to maturity. Debt securities are classified as available-for-sale ("AFS") when management may have the intent to sell them prior to maturity. Debt securities are classified as held-to-maturity ("HTM") and carried at amortized cost when management has the positive intent and ability to hold them to maturity.
AFS securities are acquired as part of the Company’s asset/liability management strategy and may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, current market conditions, loan demand, changes in prepayment risk and other factors. AFS securities are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains or losses, other than impairment losses, being reported as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of deferred income tax. Realized gains and losses, using the specific identification method, are included as a separate component of noninterest income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Premiums and discounts on investment securities are amortized/accreted to the earlier of call or maturity based on expected lives, which are adjusted based on prepayment assumptions and call optionality.
Transfers of Investment Securities from Available-for-Sale to Held-to-Maturity
Transfers of debt securities into the HTM category from the AFS category are made at amortized cost, net of unrealized gain or loss reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) at the date of transfer. The unrealized holding gain or loss at the date of transfer is retained in other comprehensive income (loss) and in the carrying value of the HTM securities. Such amounts are amortized over the remaining life of the security. There were no transfers during the periods presented.
The Company does not intend to sell the HTM investments, and it is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell the securities before recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity.
For the impairment of investment securities please see "Allowance for Credit Losses - AFS Securities" and "Allowance for Credit Losses - HTM Securities" below.
Loans
The Company classifies loans in its portfolio as either held for investment ("HFI"), when management has the intent and ability to hold the loans for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff, or held for sale ("HFS"). HFS loans are reported at the lower of cost or fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. HFI loans are stated at the principal amount outstanding, net of unamortized deferred costs and fees. Interest income on loans is recognized at the contractual rate on the principal amounts outstanding. It is the Company’s policy to discontinue the accrual of interest when circumstances indicate that collection is doubtful. Loan origination fees, net of direct loan origination costs, and commitment fees are deferred and amortized on the interest method over the term of the loan.
Past due loans are placed on nonaccrual status when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or there is a clear indication that the borrower's cash flow may not be sufficient to meet payments as they become due, even when the loan is currently performing. A loan may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is well secured. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, all previously accrued and unpaid interest is reversed through interest income. Interest income is subsequently recognized on a cash basis as long as the remaining book balance of the asset is deemed to be collectible. If collectability is questionable, then cash payments are applied to principal. A loan is placed back on accrual status when both principal and interest are current and it is probable that we will be able to collect all amounts due (both principal and interest) according to the terms of the loan agreement.
Besides our primary loan portfolio segments that are summarized below, the Company also regularly engages in the sale of the guaranteed portion of SBA loans originated by the Bank. The sale of the guaranteed portion of SBA loans on a servicing retained basis gives rise to an excess servicing asset, which is computed on a loan by loan basis with the unamortized amount being included in intangible assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. This excess servicing asset is being amortized on a straight-line basis (with adjustment for prepayments) as an offset to servicing fees collected and is included in other income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Up until the second half of 2024, the Company originated multifamily FHA loans through the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Multifamily Accelerated Program. The Company securitized these loans through the

| | |
Government National Mortgage Association ("Ginnie Mae") MBS I program and sells the resulting securities in the open market to authorized dealers in the normal course of business and periodically bundles and sells the servicing rights. When servicing was retained on multifamily FHA loans securitized and sold, the Company computed an excess servicing asset on a loan by loan basis. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company sold the remaining servicing rights to all multifamily FHA loans.
Noninterest income includes gains from the sale of the Ginnie Mae securities and net revenues earned on the servicing of multifamily FHA loans underlying the Ginnie Mae securities. Revenue from servicing commercial multifamily FHA mortgages is recognized as earned based on the specific contractual terms of the underlying servicing agreements, along with amortization of and changes in impairment of MSRs.
The Company previously regularly engaged in sale of residential mortgage loans held for sale through the end 2022. In the first quarter of 2023, the Company ceased originations of first lien residential mortgage loans for secondary sale and completed residual origination and sales activities in the second quarter of 2023.
Collateral Dependent Financial Assets
For collateral dependent loans for which the Company has determined that foreclosure of the collateral is probable, or where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the Company expects repayment of the financial asset to be provided substantially through the sale of the collateral, the ACL is measured based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the amortized cost basis of the asset as of the measurement date. When repayment is expected to be from the operation of the collateral, expected credit losses are calculated as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the financial asset exceeds the net present value ("NPV") from the operation of the collateral. When repayment is expected to be from the sale of the collateral, expected credit losses are calculated as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the financial asset exceeds the fair value of the underlying collateral less estimated cost to sell. The ACL may be zero if the fair value of the collateral at the measurement date exceeds the amortized cost basis of the financial asset.
Loan Modifications to Borrowers in Financial Difficulty
The Company evaluates loan restructurings to determine if we have a loan modification and whether it results in a new loan or the continuation of the existing loan. Loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty that result in a direct change in the timing or amount of contractual cash flows include situations where there are principal forgiveness, interest rate reductions, other-than-insignificant payment delays, term extensions, and combinations of the listed modifications.
A loan that is considered a modified loan may be subject to an individually-evaluated loan analysis if the commitment is $500 thousand or greater; otherwise, the restructured loan remains in the appropriate segment in the ACL model and associated provisions are adjusted based on changes in the discounted cash flows resulting from the modification of the restructured loan. Management strives to identify borrowers in financial difficulty early and work with them to modify their loan to more affordable terms before their loan reaches nonaccrual status, foreclosure or repossession of the collateral to minimize economic loss to the Company.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The table below presents a breakdown of the current provision for credit losses included in our Consolidated Statements of Operations.

| Total Provision for credit losses | | | | | | $ | 293,097 | | | $ | 66,360 | | | $ | 31,536 | |
Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans
The ACL - Loans is an estimate of the expected credit losses in the HFI loans portfolio. The Company's ACL on its loan portfolio is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Loans, or portions thereof, are charged off against the allowance when they are deemed uncollectible. Expected recoveries are recorded to the extent they do not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged-off and expected to be charged-off.

Table of Contents | | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements | Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
| | |
The ACL - Loans is measured on a collective pool basis when similar risk characteristics are present. Reserves on loans that do not share similar risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. Nonaccrual loans are specifically reviewed for loss potential and when deemed appropriate are assigned a reserve based on an individual evaluation. The remainder of the portfolio, representing all loans not evaluated individually for impairment, is pooled into portfolio segments by call report codes and a loan-level probability of default ("PD") / Loss Given Default ("LGD") cash flow method is applied using an exposure at default ("EAD") model. These historical loss rates are then modified to incorporate our reasonable and supportable forecast of future losses at the portfolio segment level, as well as any necessary qualitative adjustments.
The Company uses regression analysis of historical internal and peer data provided by a third-party provider (as Company loss data is insufficient) to determine suitable credit loss drivers to utilize when modeling lifetime PD and LGD. This analysis also determines how expected PD will be impacted by different forecasted levels of the loss drivers. A similar process is employed to calculate a reserve assigned to off-balance sheet commitments, specifically unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit, and any needed reserve is recorded in reserve for unfunded commitments ("RUC") on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. For periods beyond which we are able to develop reasonable and supportable forecasts, we revert to the historical loss rate on a straight-line basis over a twelve-month period.
For each of the loan segments listed below, the Company generates cash flow projections at the instrument level wherein payment expectations are adjusted for estimated prepayment speeds, PD rates and LGD rates. The modeling of expected prepayment speeds is based on historical internal data. EAD is based on each instrument's underlying amortization schedule in order to estimate the bank's expected credit loss exposure at the time of the borrower's potential default.
Portfolio segments are used to pool loans with similar risk characteristics and align with our methodology for measuring current expected credit losses ("CECL"). While our methodology in establishing the ACL attributes portions of the ACL and RUC to the separate loan pools or segments, the entire ACL and RUC is available to absorb credit losses in the total loan portfolio and total amount of unfunded credit commitments, respectively. A summary of our primary portfolio segments is as follows:
Commercial. The commercial loan portfolio comprises lines of credit and term loans for working capital, equipment and other business assets across a variety of industries. These loans are used for general corporate purposes including financing working capital, internal growth and acquisitions; and are generally secured by accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and other assets of our clients’ businesses.
Income producing – commercial real estate. Income producing commercial real estate loans comprise permanent and bridge financing provided to professional real estate owners/managers of commercial and residential real estate projects and properties who generally have a demonstrated record of past success with similar properties. Collateral properties include apartment buildings, office buildings, hotels, mixed-use buildings, retail, data centers, warehouses, and shopping centers. The primary source of repayment on these loans is generally expected to come from lease or operation of the real property collateral. Income producing commercial real estate loans are impacted by fluctuations in collateral values, as well as rental demand and rates.
Owner occupied – commercial real estate. The owner occupied commercial real estate portfolio comprises permanent financing provided to operating companies and their related entities for the purchase or refinance of real property wherein their business operates. Collateral properties include industrial property, office buildings, religious facilities, mixed-use property, healthcare and educational facilities.
Real Estate Mortgage – Residential. Real estate mortgage residential loans comprise consumer mortgages for the purpose of purchasing or refinancing first lien real estate loans secured by primary-residence, second-home and rental residential real property.
Construction – commercial and residential. The construction commercial and residential loan portfolio comprises loans made to builders and developers of commercial and residential property, for renovation, new construction and development projects. Collateral properties include apartment buildings, mixed-use properties, residential condominiums, single unit and 1-4 unit residential properties and office buildings. The primary source of repayment on these loans is expected to come from the sale, permanent financing or lease of the real property collateral. Construction loans are impacted by fluctuations in collateral values and the ability of the borrower or ultimate purchaser to obtain permanent financing.

| | |
Construction – commercial and industrial ("C&I") (owner occupied). The construction C&I (owner occupied) portfolio comprises loans to operating companies and their related entities for new construction or renovation of the real or leased property in which they operate. Generally, these loans contain provisions for conversion to an owner occupied commercial real estate loan or to a commercial loan after completion of construction. Collateral properties include industrial, healthcare, religious facilities, restaurants and office buildings.
Home Equity. The home equity portfolio comprises consumer lines of credit and loans secured by subordinate liens on residential real property.
Other Consumer. The other consumer portfolio comprises consumer loans not secured by real property, including personal lines of credit and loans, overdraft lines and vehicle loans. This category also includes other loan items such as overdrawn deposit accounts as well as loans and loan payments in process.
The ACL also includes a qualitative adjustment for inherent risks not reflected in the historical quantitative analysis associated with the reasonable and supportable forecast. Relevant factors include, but are not limited to, concentrations of credit risk, appraisal risk from volatility in the market, changes in underwriting standards, experience and depth of lending staff and trends in delinquencies. Our model may reflect assumptions by management that are not covered by the qualitative and environmental factors, and we reevaluate all of its factors quarterly. Additionally, the ACL includes a qualitative reserve for CRE office loans (the "office overlay"), which reflects management’s assessment of continued uncertainty in that sector as well as potential lag effects from interest-rate sensitivity, valuation declines, and refinancing risk. Management continues to monitor trends, including occupancy, capitalization rates, and market liquidity, across key metropolitan areas and may adjust qualitative reserves further as these factors evolve.
Our model may reflect assumptions by management that are not covered by the qualitative and environmental factors, and we reevaluate all of its factors quarterly.
The company uses four economic variables in its cash flow model: national unemployment, Commercial Real Estate ("CRE") Price Index, House Price Index and Gross Domestic Product ("GDP"), which are incorporated by utilizing a Loss Driver Analysis approach that factors in historical losses, including during the Great Recession, of regional peer banks and the Bank. The updated model incorporates a weighting of three economic scenarios; baseline, upside and downside. The scenarios cover the four economic forecast variables, with each segment of the portfolio linked to two of these variables, depending on the segment. The loss driver analysis is spread over a reasonable and supportable period of 18 months and reverts back to a historical loss rate over twelve months on a straight-line basis over the loan's remaining maturity. Management leverages economic projections from reputable and independent third parties to inform its loss driver forecasts over the forecast period.
We have several pass credit grades that are assigned to loans based on varying levels of risk, ranging from loans that are secured by cash or marketable securities, to watch list loans that have all the characteristics of an acceptable credit risk but warrant more than the normal level of monitoring. Special mention loans are those that are currently protected by the sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower, but that are potentially weak and constitute an additional credit risk. These loans have the potential to deteriorate to a substandard grade due to the existence of financial or administrative deficiencies. Substandard loans have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardizes the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Some substandard loans are inadequately protected by the sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower and of the collateral pledged and may be considered impaired. Substandard loans can be accruing or can be on nonaccrual depending on the circumstances of the individual loans. Loans graded as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in substandard loans with the added characteristics that the weaknesses make collection in full highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high. All doubtful loans are accounted for on a nonaccrual basis. Classified loans is the aggregation of loans graded substandard and doubtful.
The methodology used in the estimation of the ACL, which is performed at least quarterly, is designed to be dynamic and responsive to changes in portfolio credit quality and forecasted economic conditions. Changes are reflected in the pool-basis allowance and individually assessed loans as the collectability of classified loans is evaluated with new information. As our portfolio has matured, historical loss ratios have been closely monitored. The review of the appropriateness of the allowance is performed by executive management and presented to management committees and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors ("Board"). The committees' reports to the Board are part of the Board's review on a quarterly basis of our consolidated financial statements.
When management determines that foreclosure is probable, and for certain collateral-dependent loans where foreclosure is not considered probable, expected credit losses are based on the estimated fair value of the collateral adjusted for selling costs, when appropriate. A loan is considered collateral-dependent when the borrower is

experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral. Expected credit losses are estimated over the contractual term of the loans, adjusted for expected prepayments when appropriate. The contractual term excludes expected extensions, renewals and modifications unless management has a reasonable expectation that a borrower will experience financial difficulty. We do not measure an ACL on accrued interest receivable balances because these balances are written off in a timely manner as a reduction to interest income when loans are placed on nonaccrual status.
Allowance for Credit Losses - AFS Securities
For AFS debt securities 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 criteria is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income. For AFS debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the Company evaluates 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 a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security is compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected 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, as a non-credit-related impairment.
The entire amount of an impairment loss is recognized in earnings (loss) only when: (1) the Company intends to sell the security; or (2) it is more likely than not that the Company will have to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis; or (3) the Company does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. In all other situations, only the portion of the impairment loss representing the credit loss must be recognized in earnings (loss), with the remaining portion being recognized in other comprehensive income (loss), net of deferred taxes. Changes in the ACL are recorded as a provision for (or reversal of) credit losses. Losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of an AFS security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met.
We have made a policy election to exclude accrued interest from the amortized cost basis of AFS debt securities and report accrued interest separately in accrued interest and other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. AFS debt securities are placed on nonaccrual status when we no longer expect to receive all contractual amounts due, which is generally at 90 days past due. Accrued interest receivable is reversed against interest income when a security is placed on nonaccrual status. Accordingly, we do not recognize an allowance for credit loss against accrued interest receivable.
Allowance for Credit Losses - HTM Securities
The Company separately evaluates its HTM investment securities for any credit losses. The Company pools like securities and calculates expected credit losses through an estimate based on a security's credit rating, which is recognized as part of the ACL for HTM securities and included in the balance of HTM securities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. If the Company determines that a security indicates evidence of deteriorated credit quality, the security is individually evaluated and a discounted cash flow analysis may be performed and compared to the amortized cost basis.
Loan Commitments and Allowance for Credit Losses on Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures
Financial instruments include off-balance sheet credit instruments such as commitments to make loans and commercial letters of credit issued to meet customer financing needs. The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for off-balance sheet loan commitments is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.
The Company records a RUC on off-balance sheet credit exposures through a charge to provision for credit loss expense in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations. The RUC on off-balance sheet credit exposures is estimated by loan segment at each balance sheet date under the current expected credit loss model using the same methodologies as portfolio loans, taking into consideration the likelihood that funding will occur and is included in the RUC on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Premises and Equipment
Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization computed using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes. Premises and equipment are depreciated over the useful lives of the assets, which generally range from 3 to 7 years for furniture, fixtures and equipment, 3 to 5 years for computer software and hardware and 5 to 20 years for leasehold improvements. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the terms of the respective leases, which may include renewal options where management has the positive intent to exercise such options or the estimated useful lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter. The costs of major renewals and betterments are capitalized, while the costs of ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. These costs are included as a component of premises and equipment expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Other Real Estate Owned (OREO)
Assets acquired through loan foreclosure are held for sale and are recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. The new basis is supported by appraisals that are generally no more than twelve months old. Costs after acquisition are generally expensed. If the fair value of the asset declines, a write-down is recorded through noninterest expense. The valuation of foreclosed assets is subjective in nature and may be adjusted in the future because of changes in market conditions or appraised values.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, Management determined that a triggering event had occurred as a result of the share price trading under book value for more than four quarters due to the impact of changing macroeconomic conditions and rising interest rates on the banking industry, resulting in a sustained decrease in the Company's stock price. As a result of the triggering event, the Company engaged a third-party service provider to assist Management with the determination of the fair value of the Company during the second quarter of 2024. The valuation indicated that the fair value did not exceed the carrying amount of the Company's sole reporting unit as of May 31, 2024 which resulted in a determination that goodwill had become fully impaired. The goodwill impairment charge of $104.2 million reduced the carrying value of the Company's goodwill to zero as of June 30, 2024. The impaired goodwill was primarily related to the acquisition of the Virginia Heritage Bank in October 2014. The impairment charge did not impact our cash flows, liquidity ratios, core operating performance, or regulatory capital ratios.
Interest Rate Swap Derivatives
As required by ASC Topic 815, "Derivatives and Hedging", the Company records all derivatives on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings (loss) effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge. The Company may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain of its risks, even though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting.
Revenue Recognition
The majority of our revenue-generating transactions are not subject to ASC 606 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers", including revenue generated from financial instruments, such as loans, letters of credit, derivatives and investment securities, as well as revenue related to our mortgage servicing activities, as these activities are subject to other GAAP discussed elsewhere within our disclosures. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is generated from contracts with customers. Descriptions of our revenue-generating activities that are within the scope of ASC 606, which are presented in our Statements of Operations as components of noninterest income are as follows:
•Service charges on deposit accounts (i.e. automated teller machine ("ATM") fees) – These represent general service fees for monthly account maintenance and activity- or transaction-based fees and consist of transaction-based revenue, time-based revenue (service period), item-based revenue or some other individual attribute-based revenue. Revenue is recognized when our performance obligation is completed

| | |
which is generally monthly for account maintenance services or when a transaction has been completed (such as a wire transfer). Payment for such performance obligations is generally received at the time the performance obligations are satisfied.
•Other Fees (i.e. insurance commissions, investment advisory fees, credit card fees, interchange fees) – Generally, the Company receives compensation when a customer that it refers opens an account with certain third-parties.
•Sale of OREO – The Company assesses whether it is "probable" that it will collect the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for transferring the asset to the customer.
Customer Repurchase Agreements
The Company used to enter into agreements under which it sells securities subject to an obligation to repurchase the same securities. Under these arrangements, the Company may transfer legal control over the assets but still retain effective control through an agreement that both entitles and obligates the Company to repurchase the assets. As a result, securities sold under agreements to repurchase are accounted for as collateralized financing arrangements and not as a sale and subsequent repurchase of securities. The Company discontinued this product offering in November 2025.
Marketing and Advertising
Marketing and advertising costs are generally expensed as incurred.
Income Taxes
The Company employs the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes as required by ASC 740, "Income Taxes." Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities (i.e. temporary differences) and are measured at the enacted rates that will be in effect when these differences reverse. We recognize deferred tax assets ("DTA") to the extent that we believe that these assets are more likely than not to be realized. In making such a determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, tax-planning strategies, carryback potential if permitted under the tax law, and results of recent operations. If we determine that we would be able to realize our DTAs in the future in excess of their recorded amount, we would make an adjustment to the DTA valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes.
The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, the Company believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority.
The Company's policy is to recognize interest accrued and penalties on income taxes in other noninterest expense.
Transfer 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 (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) 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 (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity. In certain cases, the recourse to the Bank to repurchase assets may exist but is deemed immaterial based on the specific facts and circumstances.
Stock-Based Compensation
In accordance with ASC Topic 718, "Compensation," the Company records as salaries and employee benefits expense on its Consolidated Statements of Operations an amount equal to the amortization (over the remaining service period) of the fair value of option and restricted stock awards computed at the date of grant. Salary and employee benefits expense on variable stock grants (i.e., performance based grants) is recorded based on the probability of achievement of the goals underlying the performance grant. Refer to "Note 15 – Stock-Based Compensation" for a description of stock-based compensation awards, activity and expense for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. The Company records the discount from the fair market value of shares issued under its Employee Share Purchase Plan as a component of Salaries and employee benefits expense in its Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Earnings (Loss) per Common Share
Basic earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period measured. Diluted earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period including the potential dilutive effects of common stock equivalents.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) includes unrealized gains and losses on debt securities available-for-sale, debt securities transferred to HTM from AFS, and unrealized gains and losses on derivatives as cash flow hedges (all net of taxes). Other comprehensive income (loss) is recognized as a separate component of equity.
Loss Contingencies
Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Other than the legal contingency discussed in Note 19 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities, Management does not believe any additional matters exist that will have a material effect on the financial statements.
Segment Reporting
The Company has one reporting unit, one operating segment and, consequently, a single reportable segment. Refer to "Note 24 – Segment Reporting" for further details.
New Authoritative Accounting Guidance
Accounting Standards Pending Adoption
ASU No. 2023-06, "Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative" ("ASU 2023-06") incorporates into the Accounting Standards Codification (ASC or Codification) several U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") disclosure requirements under Regulations S-K and S-X. The amendments in the ASU are intended to clarify or improve disclosure and presentation requirements of a variety of Codification Topics, allow users to more easily compare entities subject to the SEC’s existing disclosures with those entities that were not previously subject to the requirements, and align the requirements in the Codification with the SEC’s regulations. These requirements are similar to, but require additional information than, generally accepted accounting principles. These new updates modify the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of Topics in the Codification. Entities should apply the amendments in ASU 2023-06 prospectively. For entities subject to the SEC’s existing disclosure requirements and for entities that have to file or provide financial statements with or to the SEC for the purpose of selling or issuing securities that do not have contractual limits on transfer, the effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC removes that related disclosure from its rules. As a result, the effective date will be different for each individual disclosure based on the effective date of the SEC’s deletion of the related disclosure. Early adoption is prohibited. For all other entities, the effective date will be two years later. Early adoption is permitted for these entities, but not before the provisions of the ASU become effective for entities subject to SEC’s regulation. The effective dates of the amendments are predicated on the SEC removing its related disclosure requirements from its regulations. However, if by June 30, 2027, the SEC has not removed the related disclosure from its regulations, the amendments will be removed from the Codification and not become effective for any entity. We are currently in the process of evaluating this guidance.
ASU No. 2024-03, "Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40); Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses" ("ASU 2024-03") which requires disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses for public business entities. The ASU does not change the expense captions an entity presents on the face of the income statement; rather, it requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories in disclosures within the footnotes to the financial statements at interim and annual reporting periods. ASU 2024-03 adds to ASC 220-40, requiring public business entities to disaggregate within the financial statement footnotes, in a tabular presentation, each relevant expense caption on the face of the income statement that includes any of the following natural expenses: (1) purchases of inventory, (2) employee compensation, (3) depreciation, (4) intangible asset amortization, and (5) depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil- and gas-producing activities or other types of depletion expenses. The tabular disclosure would also include certain other expenses, when applicable. ASU 2024-03 does not change or remove existing

expense disclosure requirements; however, it may affect where that information appears in the footnotes to the financial statements. The amendments in this update are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this update should be applied either (1) prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this Update or (2) retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The company will expand its disclosures in the annual reporting period beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim reporting periods after to include disaggregated information related to the expenses required by the standard.
ASU No. 2025-06, "Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40)"; Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software ("ASU 2025-06") amends guidance related to the accounting for internal-use software development costs. The amendments are intended to modernize the recognition and capitalization framework to reflect current software development practices, including iterative and agile methodologies, by removing references to "development stages". It also clarifies the criteria for capitalization, which begins when both of the following occur: (1) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (2) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The amendments in ASU 2025-06 are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those annual periods, which for the Company would be the fiscal first quarter ending March 31, 2028. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. ASU 2025-06 allows companies to elect one of the following adoption methods to apply its amendments: a prospective transition approach, a retrospective transition approach, or a modified transition approach that is based on the status of the project and whether software costs were capitalized before the date of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the new accounting standard will have on its policy for capitalization of development costs for software intended for internal use.
ASU No. 2025-07, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)—Derivatives Scope Refinements (Issue 1)" ("ASU 2025-07"). In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-07 to refine the scope of derivative accounting under ASC 815 and clarify the treatment of share-based noncash consideration from customers under ASC 606. The update provides a new scope exception for certain contracts based on a party’s own operations, removing them from derivative accounting. It also clarifies that share-based consideration from customers should be measured at fair value at contract inception and included in the transaction price only if the right to receive it is unconditional. Subsequent fair value changes before the right becomes unconditional are not recognized in revenue. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoption permitted, and transition options include prospective or modified retrospective application. Entities will need to reassess existing contracts and update processes for valuation and revenue recognition related to customer share-based payments. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating this guidance.
ASU No. 2025-09, "Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815)— Hedge Accounting Improvements" ("ASU 2025-09"). In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-09 to provide significant improvements to hedge accounting under FASB ASC 815, primarily by giving companies more flexibility to align hedge accounting with their actual risk management, especially for variable-rate debt ("choose-your-rate"), nonfinancial asset hedges, and aggregated forecasts. Key changes include allowing flexible switching between interest rate indexes for variable debt hedges, simplifying grouping of forecasted transactions (similar risk instead of shared risk), and resolving mismatches in complex dual-purpose hedges involving foreign currency debt. The goal is to reduce complexity, cost, and align financial reporting with economic reality. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods The Company is currently in the process of evaluating this guidance.
ASU No. 2025-12, "Codifications Improvements" ("ASU 2025-12"). In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-12 to make dozens of technical corrections, clarifications, and minor enhancements across various topics including simplifying diluted EPS calculations with losses, clarifying lease receivable disclosures, refining beneficial interest calculations, and streamlining treasury stock accounting. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating this guidance.
Accounting Standards Adopted in 2025
ASU No. 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" ("ASU 2023-09"). The ASU required additional income tax disclosures around effective tax rates and cash income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 was effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The new disclosure requirements were adopted retrospectively by the Company in 2025, and the requirements around

effective tax rates and cash income taxes paid only apply to year-end. Refer to "Note 12 – Income Taxes" for further details.
ASU No. 2024-02, "Codification Improvements—Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements" ("ASU 2024-02") amended the Accounting Standard Codification ("Codification") by removing references to various concepts statements. These amendments simplified the Codification and further drew a distinction between authoritative and non-authoritative literature. The amendments were effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Refer to "Note 12 – Income Taxes" in this report for the applied accounting standard.
Note 2 – Cash and Due from Banks
For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Bank maintained average daily balances at the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond ("Federal Reserve Bank") of $1.5 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively, on which interest is paid.
Additionally, the Bank maintains interest-bearing balances with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta ("FHLB") and noninterest-bearing balances with domestic correspondent banks to cover associated costs for services they provide to the Bank.

In addition, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company held $28.3 million and $51.8 million, respectively, in non-marketable equity securities in a combination of Federal Reserve System ("Federal Reserve Board", "Federal Reserve" or "FRB") and FHLB stocks, which are required to be held for regulatory purposes. These securities cannot be disposed of other than through redemption by the issuer and, if redeemed, would be redeemed at the original cost. The securities are carried at cost, classified as restricted securities, and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had $38.5 million and $44.8 million, respectively, of unamortized unrealized losses outstanding following the transfer of investment securities from AFS to HTM in 2022. These unrealized losses are included in accumulated other comprehensive loss and are amortized through interest income as a yield adjustment over the remaining term of the securities.
Accrued interest receivable on investment securities totaled $5.5 million and $6.6 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The accrued interest on investment securities is excluded from the amortized cost of the securities and is reported in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

As of December 31, 2025, unrealized losses were generally attributable to changes in market interest rates and interest spread relationships subsequent to the dates the securities were originally purchased, and were considered to be temporary, and not due to credit quality concerns on the investment securities. The fair values of these securities are expected to recover as the securities approach their respective maturity dates.
The Company measures its AFS and HTM securities portfolios for credit losses as part of its ACL analysis. For further information on provision for credit losses on AFS and HTM securities, see the "Allowance for Credit Losses" discussion in "Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies". As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had an allowance for credit losses outstanding of zero and $22 thousand, respectively, on its AFS securities and $1.0 million and $1.3 million, respectively, on its HTM securities, each of which primarily comprise allowances for corporate bonds.
The table below summarizes the Company's investment in AFS securities and HTM securities by contractual maturity. Expected maturities for mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") will differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

(1)Excludes accrued interest receivable of $35.9 million and $42.9 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which were recorded in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Unamortized net deferred fees and costs were $17.6 million and $18.8 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, certain loans, primarily income producing - commercial real estate loans, were reclassified from HFI to HFS loans with the lower of cost or fair value of $201.4 million. As of December 31, 2025, the outstanding balance of these HFS loans was $90.7 million as reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, all of which were on nonaccrual status.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Bank serviced $81.5 million and $63.7 million, respectively, of SBA loans and other loan participations, which are not reflected as loan balances on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company sold the remaining servicing rights to all FHA loans.
Real estate loans are secured primarily by duly recorded first deeds of trust or mortgages. In some cases, the Bank may accept a recorded junior trust position. In general, borrowers will have a proven ability to build, lease, manage and/or sell a commercial or residential project and demonstrate satisfactory financial condition. Additionally, an equity contribution toward the project is customarily required.
Construction loans require that the financial condition and experience of the general contractor and major subcontractors be satisfactory to the Bank. Guaranteed, fixed price contracts are required whenever appropriate, along with payment and performance bonds or completion bonds for larger scale projects.
Loans intended for residential land acquisition, lot development and construction are made on the premise that the land: 1) is or will be developed for building sites for residential structures; and 2) will ultimately be utilized for construction or improvement of residential zoned real properties, including the creation of housing. Residential development and construction loans will finance projects such as single family subdivisions, planned unit developments, townhouses and condominiums. Residential land acquisition, development and construction ("ADC") loans generally are underwritten with a maximum term of 36 months, including extensions approved at origination.
Commercial land acquisition and construction loans are secured by real property where loan funds will be used to acquire land and to construct or improve appropriately zoned real property for the creation of income producing or owner-occupied commercial properties. Borrowers are generally required to put equity into each project at levels determined by the appropriate approval authority. Commercial land acquisition and construction loans generally are underwritten with a maximum term of 24 months.
Substantially all construction draw requests must be presented in writing on American Institute of Architects documents and certified either by the contractor, the borrower and/or the borrower’s architect. Each draw request shall also include the borrower’s soft cost breakdown certified by the borrower or their Chief Financial Officer. Prior

to an advance, the Bank or its contractor inspects the project to determine that the work has been completed, to justify the draw requisition.
Commercial permanent loans are generally secured by improved real property which is generating income in the normal course of operation. Debt service coverage, assuming stabilized occupancy, must be satisfactory to support a permanent loan. The debt service coverage ratio ("DSCR") is ordinarily at least 1.15 to 1.0. As part of the underwriting process, DSCRs are stress tested assuming a 200 basis point increase in interest rates from their current levels. Commercial permanent loans generally are underwritten with a term not greater than 10 years or the remaining useful life of the property, whichever is less. The preferred term is between 5 to 7 years, with amortization to a maximum of 25 years.
The Company’s loan portfolio includes ADC real estate loans including both investment and owner occupied projects. ADC loans amounted to $1.2 billion as of December 31, 2025. A portion of the ADC portfolio, both speculative and non-speculative, includes loan-funded interest reserves at origination. ADC loans that provide for the use of interest reserves represent approximately 38% of the outstanding ADC loan portfolio as of December 31, 2025. The decision to establish a loan-funded interest reserve is made upon origination of the ADC loan and is based upon a number of factors considered during underwriting of the credit including: (1) the feasibility of the project; (2) the experience of the sponsor; (3) the creditworthiness of the borrower and guarantors; (4) borrower equity contribution; and (5) the level of collateral protection. When appropriate, an interest reserve provides an effective means of addressing the cash flow characteristics of a properly underwritten ADC loan. The Company does not significantly utilize interest reserves in other loan products.
The Company recognizes that one of the risks inherent in the use of interest reserves is the potential masking of underlying problems with the project and/or the borrower’s ability to repay the loan. In order to mitigate this inherent risk, the Company employs a series of reporting and monitoring mechanisms on all ADC loans, whether or not an interest reserve is provided, including: (1) construction and development timelines which are monitored on an ongoing basis which track the progress of a given project to the timeline projected at origination; (2) a construction loan administration department independent of the lending function; (3) third party independent construction loan inspection reports; (4) monthly interest reserve monitoring reports detailing the balance of the interest reserves approved at origination and the days of interest carry represented by the reserve balances as compared to the then current anticipated time to completion and/or sale of speculative projects; and (5) quarterly commercial real estate construction meetings among senior Company management, which includes monitoring of current and projected real estate market conditions. If a project has not performed as expected, it is not the customary practice of the Company to increase loan funded interest reserves.

Credit Quality Indicators
The Company uses several credit quality indicators to manage credit risk in an ongoing manner. The Company’s primary credit quality indicator is an internal credit risk rating system that categorizes loans into pass, special mention or classified categories. Credit risk ratings are applied individually to those classes of loans that have significant or unique credit characteristics that benefit from a case-by-case evaluation. These are typically loans to businesses or individuals in the classes which comprise the commercial portfolio segment. Groups of loans that are underwritten and structured using standardized criteria and characteristics, such as statistical models (e.g., credit scoring or payment performance), are typically risk rated and monitored collectively. These are typically loans to individuals in the classes which comprise the consumer portfolio segment.
The following are the definitions of the Company’s credit quality indicators:
| | | | | |
| Pass: | Loans in all classes that comprise the commercial and consumer portfolio segments that are not adversely rated, are contractually current as to principal and interest and are otherwise in compliance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Management believes that there is a low likelihood of loss related to those loans that are considered pass. |
| |
| Special Mention: | Loans in the classes that comprise the commercial portfolio segment that have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If not addressed, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan. The special mention credit quality indicator is not used for classes of loans that comprise the consumer portfolio segment. Management believes that there is a moderate likelihood of some loss related to those loans that are considered special mention. |
| |
Classified (a) Substandard: | Loans inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard loans, does not have to exist in individual loans classified substandard. |
| |
Classified (b) Doubtful: | Loans that have all the weaknesses inherent in a loan classified substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific pending factors, which may work to the advantage and strengthening of the assets, its classification as an estimated loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined. |

The Company individually evaluates nonaccrual loans when performing its CECL estimate to calculate the ACL. Additionally, the Company utilizes historical internal and third-party service provider sourced loss data in the determination of its PD/LGD rates applied in the calculation of its CECL estimate. Upon determination that a modified loan (or a portion of a loan) has subsequently been deemed uncollectible, the loan (or a portion of the loan) is charged off. Therefore, the amortized cost basis of the loan is reduced by the uncollectible amount and the ACL is adjusted by the same amount.

Nonaccrual and Past Due Loans
Loans are considered past due if the required principal and interest payments have not been received as of the date such payments were due. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payment obligations as they become due, as well as when required by regulatory provisions. Loans may be placed on nonaccrual status whether or not such loans are considered past due. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received in excess of principal due. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
The table below presents, by portfolio segment, information related to the amortized cost basis of nonaccrual HFI loans. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

Loan Modifications for Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
The Company evaluates all loan modifications according to the accounting guidance to determine if the modification results in a new loan or a continuation of the existing loan. Loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties that result in a direct change in the timing or amount of contractual cash flows include situations where there is principal forgiveness, interest rate reductions, other-than-insignificant payment delays, term extensions, and combinations of the listed modifications. Modifications with terms not as favorable to the Company as the terms for comparable loans to other customers with similar collection risk who are not refinancing or restructuring a loan with the Company and which have a direct impact on cash flows are considered modified loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.
The Company may offer various types of modifications when restructuring a loan. Commercial and industrial loans modified in a loan restructuring often involve temporary interest-only payments, term extensions, and converting revolving credit lines to term loans. Additional collateral, a co-borrower, or a guarantor is often requested.
Commercial mortgage and construction loans modified in a loan restructuring often involve reducing the interest rate for the remaining term of the loan, extending the maturity date at an interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, or substituting or adding a new borrower or guarantor. Construction loans modified in a loan restructuring may also involve extending the interest-only payment period.

Table of Contents | | Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements | Note 4 – Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses |
| | |
Loans modified in a loan restructuring for the Company may have the financial effect of increasing the specific allowance associated with the loan. An allowance for consumer and commercial loans that have been modified in a loan restructuring is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, the loan's observable market price, or the estimated fair value of the collateral, less any selling costs, if the loan is collateral dependent. Management exercises significant judgment in developing these estimates.
Commercial and consumer loans modified in a loan restructuring are closely monitored for delinquency as an early indicator of possible future default. If loans modified in a loan restructuring subsequently default, the Company evaluates the loan for possible further loss. The allowance may be increased, adjustments may be made in the allocation of the allowance, or partial charge-offs may be taken to further write-down the carrying value of the loan.
The table below presents the amortized cost basis and the financial effect of HFI loans modified for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |

The Company monitors loan payments on performing and nonperforming loans on an on-going basis to determine if a loan is considered to have a payment default. To determine the existence of a payment default, the Company analyzes the economic conditions that exist for each borrower and their ability to generate positive cash flow during a given loan's term.
The table below presents the amortized cost basis of HFI loans that were experiencing payment default and were modified in the twelve months prior to that default for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.

The Company individually evaluates nonaccrual loans when performing its CECL estimate to calculate the ACL. Additionally, the Company utilizes historical internal and third-party service provider sourced loss data in the determination of its PD/LGD rates applied in the calculation of its CECL estimate. Upon determination that a modified loan (or a portion of a loan) has subsequently been deemed uncollectible, the loan (or a portion of the loan) is charged off. Therefore, the amortized cost basis of the loan is reduced by the uncollectible amount and the ACL is adjusted by the same amount.

Note 6 – Leases
The Company accounts for leases in accordance with ASC Topic 842. A lease is defined as a contract that conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant or equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Substantially all of the leases in which the Company is the lessee comprise real estate for branch offices, ATM locations and corporate office space. Substantially all of our leases are classified as operating leases and are included in operating lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets and operating lease liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
ROU assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and operating lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. In determining the present value of the lease payments, we use the implicit lease rate if available. If the implicit lease rate is not available, we use the incremental borrowing rate at commencement date. The incremental borrowing rate is the rate of interest that we would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term in an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment.
As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had $28.5 million and $18.5 million of operating lease ROU assets respectively, and $35.3 million and $23.8 million of operating lease liabilities respectively, on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company elects not to recognize ROU assets and operating lease liabilities arising from short-term leases, leases with initial terms of twelve months or less or equipment leases (deemed immaterial) on the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The leases contain options to extend or terminate the lease, which are recognized as part of the ROU assets and lease liabilities when an economic benefit to exercise the option exists and there is a 90% probability that the Company will exercise the option. If these criteria are not met, the options are not included in our ROU assets and operating lease liabilities.
As of December 31, 2025, our leases do not contain material residual value guarantees or impose restrictions or covenants related to dividends or the Company’s ability to incur additional financial obligations.

Note 8 – Derivatives and Hedging Activities
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments.

Fair Value Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
During 2025, the Company utilized pay-fixed, receive-floating interest rate swaps, accounted for as fair value hedges, to protect itself against adverse fluctuations in the fair value of AFS securities attributable to changes in the designated benchmark interest rate. Adjustments were made to record the hedging instrument at fair value on the balance sheet, with changes in fair value recognized in interest income. Changes in fair value of the AFS securities attributable to changes in the hedged risk were reclassified out of other comprehensive income (loss) through interest income each period to offset changes in fair value of the hedging instrument. As of December 31, 2025, the Company voluntarily discontinued this fair value hedging relationship. The Company will amortize the basis adjustment over a period consistent with amortization of other discounts or premiums on the asset.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Company began utilizing receive-fixed, pay-floating interest rate swaps, accounted for as fair value hedges, to protect itself against adverse fluctuations in the fair value of interest-bearing deposits attributable to changes in the benchmark interest rate. Adjustments will be made to record the hedging instrument at fair value on the balance sheet, with changes in fair value recognized in interest expense. The carrying value of the interest-bearing deposits will also be adjusted through interest expense, based on changes in fair value attributable to changes in the benchmark interest rate.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Company utilizes interest rate swaps, accounted for as cash flow hedges, to protect itself against adverse fluctuations in interest payments on variable rate loans. These swaps consist of receive-fixed, pay-floating interest rate swaps used to hedge the designated benchmark interest rate. The Company designates the receive-fixed, pay-floating interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge of the risk of changes in the cash flows on the hedged transactions. These swaps will be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value and, assuming the hedging relationship qualifies as highly effective, the gain or loss on the Hedging Instrument will be recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and reclassified into interest income in the same period(s) during which the hedged transactions affect earnings. Any interest accruals will flow through earnings as adjustments to interest income.
Interest Rate Swaps Related to Customer Loans
Interest rate derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and result from a service the Company provides to certain customers. The Company executes interest rate caps and swaps with commercial banking customers to facilitate their respective risk management strategies. Those interest rate swaps are simultaneously hedged by offsetting derivatives that the Company executes with a third party, such that the Company minimizes its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. As the interest rate derivatives associated with this program do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer derivatives and the offsetting derivatives are recognized directly in earnings (loss).
The Company entered into credit risk participation agreements ("RPAs") with institutional counterparties, under which the Company assumes its pro-rata share of the credit exposure associated with a borrower’s performance related to interest rate derivative contracts in exchange for a fee. The fair value of RPAs is calculated by determining the total expected asset or liability exposure of the derivatives to the borrowers and applying the borrowers’ credit spread to that exposure. Total expected exposure incorporates both the current and potential future exposure of the derivatives, derived from using observable inputs, such as yield curves and volatilities.
Credit Risk Related Contingent Features
The Company has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations.
The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by the interest rate derivative counterparty. The Company minimizes this risk by entering into derivative contracts with only large, stable financial institutions, and the Company has not experienced, and does not expect, any losses from counterparty nonperformance on the interest rate derivatives. The Company monitors counterparty risk in accordance with the provisions of ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging". In addition, the interest rate derivative agreements contain language outlining collateral-pledging requirements for each counterparty. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had posted $2.3 million of cash collateral with other financial institutions and held $10.2 million of cash collateral on behalf of other financial institutions.
The interest rate derivative agreements detail: 1) that collateral be posted when the market value exceeds certain threshold limits associated with the secured party's exposure; 2) if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness

(including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender), then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations; and 3) if the Company fails to maintain its status as a well-capitalized institution then the counterparty could terminate the derivative positions and the Company would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements.

Balance Sheet Offsetting: Our interest rate swap derivatives are eligible for offset in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and are subject to master netting arrangements. Our derivative transactions with counterparties are generally executed under International Swaps and Derivative Association ("ISDA") master agreements which include "right of set-off" provisions. In such cases there is generally a legally enforceable right to offset recognized amounts and there may be an intention to settle such amounts on a net basis. The Company generally presents such financial instruments gross for financial reporting purposes.

Note 10 – Affordable Housing Projects Tax Credit Partnerships
Included in Other Assets, the Company makes equity investments in various limited partnerships that sponsor affordable housing projects utilizing the Low Income Housing Tax Credit ("LIHTC") pursuant to Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code. The purpose of these investments is to achieve a satisfactory return on capital, to facilitate the sale of affordable housing products offerings and to assist in achieving goals associated with the Community Reinvestment Act. The primary activities of the limited partnerships include the identification, development and operation of multi-family housing that is leased to qualifying residential tenants. Generally, these types of investments are funded through a combination of debt and equity.
The Company is a limited partner in each LIHTC limited partnership. Each limited partnership is managed by an unrelated third party general partner who exercises significant control over the affairs of the limited partnership. The general partner has all the rights, powers and authority granted or permitted to be granted to a general partner of a limited partnership. Duties entrusted to the general partner of each limited partnership include, but are not limited to: investment in operating companies, company expenditures, investment of excess funds, borrowing funds, employment of agents, disposition of fund property, prepayment and refinancing of liabilities, votes and consents, contract authority, disbursement of funds, accounting methods, tax elections, bank accounts, insurance, litigation, cash reserve and use of working capital reserve funds. Except for limited rights granted to the limited partner(s) relating to the approval of certain transactions, the limited partner(s) may not participate in the operation, management or control of the limited partnership’s business, transact any business in the limited partnership’s name or have any power to sign documents for or otherwise bind the limited partnership. In addition, the general partner may only be removed by the limited partner(s) in the event the general partner fails to comply with the terms of the agreement or is negligent in performing their duties.
The general partner of each limited partnership has both the power to direct the activities which most significantly affect the performance of each partnership and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be significant to the entities. Therefore, the Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of any LIHTC partnership. The Company accounts for its affordable housing tax credit investments using the proportional amortization method. The Company’s net affordable housing tax credit investments were $38.1 million and related unfunded commitments were $13.1 million as of December 31, 2025 and are included in Other Assets and Other Liabilities, respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. For tax purposes, the Company recognized low income housing tax credits of $4.7 million, $5.8 million and $5.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively, and low income housing investment expense of $3.6 million, $5.4 million and $4.3 million, respectively. The Company recognizes low income housing investment expenses as a component of income tax expense.

(3)The contractual maturity dates on FHLB secured borrowings represent the maturity dates of current advances and are not evidence of a termination date on the line.
The Bank can purchase up to $145 million in federal funds on an unsecured basis from its correspondents, against which there were no amounts outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and can place brokered funds under one-way CDARS and ICS deposits in the amount of $1.1 billion, against which there was $37.5 million outstanding as of December 31, 2025. The Bank also had $386.0 million of brokered deposits placed with the Insured Network Deposits ("IND") program from IntraFi Network, LLC ("IntraFi") as of December 31, 2025.
As of December 31, 2025, the Bank was also eligible to take advances from the FHLB up to $1.3 billion based on collateral at the FHLB, of which there were none outstanding as of December 31, 2025. The Bank may enter into repurchase agreements as well as obtain additional borrowing capabilities from the FHLB provided adequate collateral exists to secure these lending relationships. The Bank also has a back-up borrowing facility through the Discount Window at the Federal Reserve Bank. This facility, which amounts to approximately $1.4 billion, is collateralized with specific loan assets pledged to the Federal Reserve Bank. It is anticipated that, except for periodic testing, this facility would be utilized for contingency funding only. The contractual maturity dates on FHLB secured borrowings represent the maturity dates of current advances and are not evidence of a termination date on the line.
There are no prepayment penalties nor unused commitment fees on any of the Company’s borrowing arrangements.
The Company used to offer a sweep account, or "customer repurchase agreement," allowing qualifying businesses to earn interest on short-term excess funds, which were not suited for either a certificate of deposit or a money market account. The Company discontinued this product offering in November 2025.
Senior Notes
On September 30, 2024, the Company closed a private placement of its 10.00% senior unsecured debt totaling $77.7 million maturing on September 30, 2029 (the "2029 Senior Notes" or "Original Notes"). As of December 31, 2025, the carrying value of these 2029 Senior Notes was $76.4 million which reflected $1.2 million in unamortized deferred financing costs that are being amortized over the life of the 2029 Senior Notes.
In connection with the issuance of the 2029 Senior Notes, the Company also entered into a registration rights agreement dated September 30, 2024 with the purchasers of the 2029 Senior Notes ("Registration Rights Agreement"). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company filed an exchange offer registration statement with the SEC to exchange the Senior Notes for substantially identical notes registered under the Securities Act ("Exchange Notes"). The terms of the Exchange Notes are identical to the terms of the Original Notes, except that the transfer restrictions and registration rights applicable to the Original Notes do not apply to the Exchange Notes. The Company completed the exchange offer on January 16, 2025.

The Company had net deferred tax assets (deferred tax assets in excess of deferred tax liabilities) of $132.3 million and $91.5 million for the years ended as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which related primarily to the net loss generated in 2025, unrealized losses on securities, allowance for credit losses, and unused LIHTC carried forward. Management believes it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets will be realized with the exception of certain state net operating losses.
Temporary timing differences between the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and the tax bases of assets and liabilities result in deferred taxes.

Note 13 – Net Income (Loss) per Common Share
The table below displays the calculation of net income (loss) per common share.

| Anti-dilutive shares | | | | | | 282 | | | 75 | | | 3 | |
(1) For periods ended with a net loss, anti-dilutive financial instruments have been excluded from the calculation of GAAP diluted earnings per share.
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing income (loss) available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the net income (loss) of the Company. The computation of diluted per share does not assume conversion or exercise of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on net income (loss) per share.
Securities issued by the Company that could potentially dilute net income (loss) per share in future periods include stock options and restricted stock. To calculate diluted net income (loss) per share, the Company utilizes the Treasury Stock method which results in only an incremental number of shares added to shares outstanding during the period.

Certain directors and executive officers of the Company and the Bank and certain affiliated entities of such directors and executive officers have had loan transactions with the Company. Such loans were made in the ordinary course of business on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with outsiders. Please see further detail regarding Related Party Loans in "Note 4 – Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses" and Related Party Deposits in "Note 9 – Deposits".
Note 15 – Stock-Based Compensation
The Company maintains the 2025 Stock Plan ("2025 Plan"), the 2021 Stock Plan ("2021 Plan"), the 2016 Stock Plan ("2016 Plan"), the 2006 Stock Plan ("2006 Plan"), the 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("2021 ESPP") and the 2011 Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("2011 ESPP").
In connection with the acquisition of Virginia Heritage Bank ("Virginia Heritage"), the Company assumed the Virginia Heritage 2006 Stock Option Plan and the 2010 Long Term Incentive Plan (the "Virginia Heritage Plans").
No additional shares may be granted under the 2021 Plan, 2016 Plan, 2006 Plan, 2011 ESPP or the Virginia Heritage Plans.
The Company adopted the 2025 Plan upon approval by the shareholders at the 2025 Annual Meeting held on May 15, 2025. The 2025 Plan provides directors and selected employees of the Bank, the Company and their affiliates with the opportunity to acquire shares of stock, through awards of options, time vested restricted stock, performance-based restricted stock and stock appreciation rights. Under the 2025 Plan, 925,000 shares of common stock were initially reserved for issuance. With shareholder approval of the 2025 Plan, no further awards shall be granted under the 2021 Plan. The 2021 Plan will remain in existence solely for the purpose of administering outstanding grants under the 2021 Plan. As of December 31, 2025, 476 shares of RSA have been granted under the 2025 Plan.
For awards that are service based, compensation expense is being recognized over the service (vesting) period based on fair value, which for stock option grants is computed using the Black-Scholes model.
For restricted stock awards granted under the 2021 Plan and 2025 Plan, fair value is based on the Company’s closing price on the date of grant. For awards that are performance-based, compensation expense is initially recorded based on the probability of achievement of the goals underlying the grant at target.
In February 2025, the Company awarded senior officers a targeted number of 147,702 performance vested restricted stock units ("PRSUs"). The vesting of PRSUs is 100% after three years with payouts based on threshold, target or maximum average performance targets over a three year period. There are two performance metrics: 1) total shareholder's return; and 2) EPS growth. In February 2025, the 2022 performance award vested and no incremental shares were awarded.
For awards that are time vested, the shares typically vest over a period of one to three years beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant. The table below presents the time vested restricted stock awarded to senior officers, directors and certain employees.

Grants of stock options have expected lives based on the "simplified" method allowed by ASC 718 "Compensation," whereby the expected term is equal to the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term of the award.
There was no intrinsic value of outstanding stock options for both December 31, 2025 and 2024. The total fair value of stock options granted for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $1.1 million. There were no stock options granted in 2024 and 2023. As of December 31, 2025, there was $686 thousand of total unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested stock options. The cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.16 years.

Note 16 – Employee Benefit Plans
The Company has a qualified 401(k) Plan which covers all employees who have reached the age of 18 years and have completed at least 1 month of service as defined by the Plan. The Company makes contributions to the Plan based on a matching formula, which is reviewed annually.
The table below displays the expense associated with this benefit. These amounts are included in salaries and employee benefits in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Note 17 – Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan
The Bank has entered into Supplemental Executive Retirement and Death Benefit Agreements (the "SERP Agreements") with certain of the Bank’s executive officers, which upon the executive’s retirement, will provide for a stated monthly payment for such executive’s lifetime subject to certain death benefits described below. The retirement benefit is computed as a percentage of each executive’s projected average base salary over the five years preceding retirement, assuming retirement at age 67. The SERP Agreements provide that (a) the benefits vest ratably over six years of service to the Bank, with the executive receiving credit for years of service prior to entering into the SERP Agreement, (b) death, disability and change-in-control shall result in immediate vesting and (c) the monthly amount will be reduced if retirement occurs earlier than age 67 for any reason other than death, disability or change-in-control. The SERP Agreements further provide for a death benefit in the event the retired executive dies prior to receiving 180 monthly installments, paid either in a lump sum payment or continued monthly installment payments, such that the executive’s beneficiary has received payment(s) sufficient to equate to a cumulative 180 monthly installments.

The SERP Agreements are unfunded arrangements maintained primarily to provide supplemental retirement benefits and comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. The Bank financed the retirement benefits by purchasing fixed annuity contracts with four insurance carriers in 2013 totaling $11.4 million and two insurance carriers in 2019 totaling $2.6 million. These annuity contracts have been designed to provide a future source of funds for the lifetime retirement benefits of the SERP Agreements. The cash surrender value of the annuity contracts was $12.1 million and $12.7 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and was included in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 the Company recorded benefit expense accruals of $351 thousand, $410 thousand and $584 thousand, respectively, for this post retirement benefit.
Upon death of a named executive, the annuity contract related to such executive terminates. The Bank has purchased additional bank owned life insurance contracts, which would effectively finance payments (up to a 15 year certain amount) to the executives’ named beneficiaries.
Note 18 – Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk
Various commitments to extend credit are made in the normal course of banking business. Letters of credit are also issued for the benefit of customers. These commitments are subject to loan underwriting standards and geographic boundaries consistent with the Company’s loans outstanding.
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 some of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements.
The table below presents the loan commitments outstanding and lines and letters of credit.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | As of December 31, |
| (dollars in thousands) | | 2025 | | 2024 |
| Unfunded loan commitments | | $ | 1,482,325 | | | $ | 1,318,133 | |

| | | | |
| Total | | $ | 1,622,876 | | | $ | 1,475,489 | |
As of December 31, 2025, the total reserve for unfunded commitments was $5.1 million as compared to $3.5 million as of December 31, 2024 and is accounted for as a liability on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. See "Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" to the Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the accounting policy for the allowance for unfunded commitments.
Note 19 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
From time to time, the Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various legal proceedings incidental to their business in the ordinary course, including matters in which damages in various amounts are claimed, as well as regulatory and governmental investigations and inquiries that could result in penalties, fines or other sanctions against the Company. Based on information currently available, the Company does not believe that the liabilities (if any) resulting from such matters will have a material effect on the financial position or liquidity of the Company. However, considering inherent uncertainties involved in such matters, ongoing legal expenses or an adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could materially and adversely affect the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period, as well as its reputation.
Under ASC 450, the Company accrues for a loss contingency when the loss is probable and reasonably estimable. The Company discloses the matter if a material loss is at least reasonably possible. Under ASC 450, a loss contingency is "reasonably possible" if "the chance of the future event or events occurring is more than remote but less than likely," and a loss contingency is "remote" if "the chance of the future event or events occurring is slight." We evaluate, on a quarterly basis, developments in legal proceedings with respect to accruals, as well as the estimated range of possible losses.

The Company is cooperating with an ongoing investigation by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania into, among other things, the Company’s anti-money laundering controls and the Company’s relationship with a former customer who pleaded guilty to a charge of bank fraud in 2020. The Company is engaged in advanced discussions with the U.S. Attorney’s Office regarding a potential resolution of the investigation, but there can be no assurance that these discussions will lead to a resolution. In light of the advanced discussions, subsequent to the Company’s issuance of its earnings release on January 21, 2026, the Company accrued a provision in the amount of $10 million for this matter.
As previously disclosed, the Company maintains director and officer insurance policies ("D&O Insurance Policies") that provide coverage for certain legal defense costs. When claims are covered by D&O Insurance Policies, the Company records a corresponding receivable against the incurred legal defense cost expense when the claim is paid. When D&O Insurance Policies are exhausted, the Company is responsible for paying the defense cost associated with any investigations and litigations for itself and on behalf of any current and former Officers and Directors entitled to indemnification from the Company. The Company cannot predict with any certainty the amount of defense costs that the Company may incur in the future in connection with currently ongoing and any future investigations and legal proceedings, as they are dependent on various factors, many of which are outside of the Company's control.
Note 20 – Regulatory Matters
The Company and Bank are 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 financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weighting, and other factors.
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and Bank to maintain amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of Total capital, Tier 1 capital and common equity tier one capital ("CET1") (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined), referred to as the Leverage Ratio. Management believes, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, that the Company and Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

(1)The risk-based ratios reflect the minimum requirement plus the capital conservation buffer of 2.50%.
(2)Applies to Bank only.
Federal bank and holding company regulations, as well as Maryland law, impose certain restrictions on capital distributions, including dividend payments and share repurchases by the Bank, as well as restricting extensions of credit and transfers of assets between the Bank and the Company. As of December 31, 2025, the Bank could pay dividends to the parent to the extent of its earnings so long as it maintained capital ratios above the required minimums and the capital conservation buffer. As a result the Company may be restricted in paying dividends.

Note 22 – Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of an asset or liability is the price that would be received to sell that asset or paid to transfer that liability in an orderly transaction occurring in the principal market (or most advantageous market in the absence of a principal market) for such asset or liability. In estimating fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach and/or the cost approach. Such valuation techniques are consistently applied. Inputs to valuation techniques include the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures", establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows:
Level 1 Quoted prices in active exchange markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Observable inputs other than Level 1 including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in less active markets or other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data; also includes derivative contracts whose value is determined using a pricing model with observable market inputs or inputs that can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes certain U.S. Government and agency securities, corporate debt securities, and derivative instruments.
Level 3 Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity for financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation; also includes observable inputs for single dealer nonbinding quotes not corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes certain private equity investments, retained interests from securitizations and certain collateralized debt obligations.

Investment securities available-for-sale: AFS 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 value is 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 2 securities includes certain U.S. treasury bonds, U.S. agency debt securities, MBS issued by Government Sponsored Entities and municipal bonds. Securities classified as Level 3 include securities in less liquid markets, for which the carrying amounts approximate the fair value.
Credit risk participation agreements: The Company enters into RPAs with institutional counterparties, under which the Company assumes its pro-rata share of the credit exposure associated with a borrower’s performance related to interest rate derivative contracts. The fair value of RPAs is calculated by determining the total expected asset or liability exposure of the derivatives to the borrowers and applying the borrowers’ credit spread to that exposure. Total expected exposure incorporates both the current and potential future exposure of the derivatives, derived from using observable inputs, such as yield curves and volatilities. Accordingly, RPAs fall within Level 2.

Interest rate derivatives: The Company entered into an interest rate derivative agreement with an institutional counterparty, under which the Company will receive cash if and when market rates exceed the derivatives' strike rate. The fair value of the derivative is calculated by determining the total expected asset or liability exposure of the derivatives. Total expected exposure incorporates both the current and potential future exposure of the derivative, derived from using observable inputs, such as yield curves and volatilities. Accordingly, the derivative falls within Level 2.
Assets and Liabilities Recorded at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
The Company measures certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and the following is a general description of the methods used to value such assets.
Loans: The fair value of individually assessed loans and HFS loans is estimated using one of several methods, including the collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value and discounted cash flows. Those individually assessed loans not requiring a specific allowance represent loans for which the fair value of expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investment in such loans. As of December 31, 2025, substantially all of the Company’s individually evaluated loans were evaluated based upon the fair value of the collateral. In accordance with ASC Topic 820, individually evaluated loans and HFS loans where an allowance is established based on the fair value of collateral, i.e., those that are collateral dependent, require classification in the fair value hierarchy. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the loan as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the loan as nonrecurring Level 3.
Other real estate owned ("OREO"): OREO is initially recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral, which the Company classifies as a Level 3 valuation.
The table below presents assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. There were no liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.

As shown in the table above, certain assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-fair value accounting or write-downs of individual assets after they are evaluated for impairment. The primary assets accounted for at fair value on a nonrecurring basis are related to collateral-dependent loans that are individually assessed and other real estate owned. For the collateral-dependent loans and other real estate owned, the Company measures the fair value utilizing a market valuation approach, based on an appraisal conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser. Management may discount the value from the appraisal in determining the fair value if, based on its understanding of the market conditions, the collateral had been impaired below the appraised value (Level 3). For loans that are not collateral dependent, the Company uses an income approach, specifically, the discounted cash flow method. The continuing payments are discounted over the expected life at the loan’s original contract rate and include adjustments for risk of default.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company discloses fair value information about financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate the value, whether or not such financial instruments are recognized on the balance sheet. Fair value is the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation, and is best evidenced by quoted market price, if one exists.
Quoted market prices, if available, are shown as estimates of fair value. Because no quoted market prices exist for a portion of the Company’s financial instruments, the fair value of such instruments has been derived based on management’s assumptions with respect to future economic conditions, the amount and timing of future cash flows and estimated discount rates. Different assumptions could significantly affect these estimates. Accordingly, the net realizable value could be materially different from the estimates presented below. In addition, the estimates are only indicative of individual financial instrument values, including in certain cases, the Company's estimation of exit pricing, and should not be considered an indication of the fair value of the Company taken as a whole.

Note 24 – Segment Reporting
The Company has one reporting unit, one operating segment and, consequently, a single reportable segment. The Chief Executive Officer, who is the Company’s chief operating decision maker ("CODM"), monitors revenue streams and other information provided about the company’s products and services offered, primarily banking operations. The information provided to the CODM is presented on an aggregated entity-level basis, which is consistent with the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements presented in this Form 10-K. The CODM evaluates the financial performance of the Company’s business by evaluating revenue streams, significant expenses, and budget to actual results in assessing operating results and in allocating resources, but profitability is only determined at the entity level. The CODM uses revenue streams to evaluate product pricing and significant expenses to assess performance and evaluate return on assets. The CODM uses consolidated net income to benchmark the company against its competitors. The benchmarking analysis coupled with monitoring of budget to actual results are used in assessing performance and allocating resources. Interest income and fees on loans, investments, and deposits provide the majority of revenues in the Company's operation. Interest expense, provisions for credit losses, and payroll provide the significant expenses in the Company's operations. All of the Company's income and expenses are included in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements presented in this Form 10-K. All of the Company’s operations are domestic.
Note 25 - Subsequent Events
The Company’s management has evaluated subsequent events through the date this filing and determined that the following qualifies as a Type 1 subsequent event:
Subsequent to the Company’s issuance of its earnings release on January 21, 2026, additional information became available related to the investigation by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania disclosed in “Note 19 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities”. This information provided further evidence about conditions that existed at December 31, 2025, and management concluded that a $10 million provision should be recorded as of year end. Refer to Note 19 for further information on this matter.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
The Company’s management is responsible for the preparation, integrity and fair presentation of the financial statements included in this Annual Report. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and reflect management’s judgments and estimates concerning the effects of events and transactions that are accounted for or disclosed.
Management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15 under the Exchange Act). The Company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that pertain to the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report reliable financial data. The internal control system contains monitoring mechanisms and appropriate actions taken to correct identified deficiencies. Management believes that internal control over financial reporting, which is subject to scrutiny by management and the Company’s internal auditors, supports the integrity and reliability of the financial statements. Management recognizes that there are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any internal control system, including the possibility of human error and the circumvention or overriding of internal controls. Accordingly, even effective internal control over financial reporting can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation. In addition, because of changes in conditions and circumstances, the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting may vary over time. The Audit Committee is comprised entirely of outside directors who are independent pursuant to stock exchange and SEC rules. The Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment and compensation of the independent auditors and makes decisions regarding the appointment or removal of members of the internal audit function. The Audit Committee meets periodically with management, the independent auditors, and the internal auditors to ensure that they are carrying out their responsibilities. The Audit Committee is also responsible for performing an oversight role by reviewing and monitoring the financial, accounting and auditing procedures of the Company in addition to reviewing the Company’s financial reports. The independent auditors and the internal auditors have full and unlimited access to the Audit Committee, with or without the presence of management, to discuss the adequacy of internal control over financial reporting and any other matters which they believe should be brought to the attention of the Audit Committee.
The 2025 financial statements have been audited by the independent registered public accounting firm of Crowe LLP ("Crowe"). Crowe has also issued a report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. That report has also been made a part of this Annual Report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management has conducted an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, utilizing framework established in "Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013)" issued by COSO. Based on this assessment, management has determined that the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 is effective. Additionally, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) during the quarter ended December 31, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
