Sentiment and the balance of points

Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Filing Explained

Management attributes the securities’ unrealized losses to market rates, with no credit-loss allowance recorded.

Form 10-Q provides unaudited interim financial statements and updates on risks and liquidity; this filing reports First Financial Bankshares through September 30, 2026. At that date, cash and cash equivalents were $474,472 thousand, down from $1,077,988 thousand at December 31, 2025, while the bank reported available FHLB and Federal Reserve Discount Window lines of $2,277,461 thousand and $1,764,497 thousand, respectively.

$678,000 thousand was used on the FHLB line for undisbursed letters of credit, and there were no borrowings from the Federal Reserve Discount Window.

For available-for-sale securities in unrealized-loss positions, the company reports no credit-loss allowance and attributes the losses to increases in market interest rates; it says it does not intend to sell those securities and believes it is more likely than not it will not have to sell before recovery of cost.

allowance for credit losses financial
"Allowance for Credit Losses on Available-for-Sale Securities"
Allowance for credit losses is a reserve set aside by a financial institution to cover potential losses from borrowers who may not repay their loans. It acts like a safety net, helping the institution prepare for loans that might turn sour. For investors, it signals how cautious the institution is about the quality of its loans and potential risks to its financial health.
amortized cost financial
"amortized cost and estimated fair value of available-for-sale securities"
Amortized cost is an accounting method that shows the value of a loan or bond on a company’s books by starting with what was paid and then gradually adjusting that amount as principal is repaid and any extra fees or discounts are spread out over time. Think of it like tracking the remaining balance on a mortgage after each scheduled payment. For investors, it matters because it determines the reported value and earned interest of debt holdings, affecting income, balance sheet strength, and comparisons between companies.
nonaccrual status financial
"loans on nonaccrual status"
Nonaccrual status is when a lender stops recording interest income on a loan because payments are late or the borrower’s ability to pay is in serious doubt. For investors this is a red flag: it signals deteriorating loan quality, can reduce reported earnings and may require the lender to set aside more reserves, much like marking a damaged product off the books until its value is clear.
anti-dilutive shares financial
"There were 925,000 and 873,000 anti-dilutive shares"
collateralized mortgage obligations financial
"These securities include collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs)"
Collateralized mortgage obligations are bonds made by pooling many home loans and dividing the pool’s cash flows into separate slices that pay investors at different times and with different risk profiles. Each slice has its own schedule for receiving principal and interest, so some slices get paid sooner with lower yield while others wait longer for higher yield. That matters to investors because these differences affect expected return, exposure to borrowers refinancing early, and sensitivity to interest-rate changes — like choosing a slice of a loaf that is cut to be eaten now or later.

FIRST FINANCIAL BANKSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations

First Financial Bankshares, Inc., a Texas corporation (“Bankshares,” “Company,” “we” or “us”), is a financial holding company which owns all of the capital stock of First Financial Bank, which had 80 locations located in Texas as of September 30, 2026. The Company’s primary source of revenue is providing loans and banking services to consumers and commercial customers in the market areas in which First Financial Bank is located. In addition, the Company also owns First Financial Trust & Asset Management Company dba First Financial Wealth Management, First Financial Insurance Agency, Inc. (inactive), First Technology Services, Inc., FFB Investment Paris Fund, LLC, and FFB Portfolio Management, Inc.

Basis of Presentation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information, reporting practices prescribed by the banking industry, and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 25, 2026.

In the opinion of management, all adjustments that were recurring in nature and considered necessary have been included for fair presentation of the Company’s financial position and results of operations. Operating results for the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the full year ending December 31, 2026. In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

The Company evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition through the date the consolidated financial statements were issued.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company’s significant estimates include its allowance for credit losses and its valuation of financial instruments.

Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Stock Repurchase

On July 28, 2026, the Company's Board of Directors renewed and increased the size of the authorization to repurchase up to 7,200,000 common shares through July 31, 2027. The prior authorization to repurchase up to 5,000,000 common shares had been in place since July 27, 2021. The stock repurchase plan authorizes management to repurchase and retire the stock at such time as repurchases and retirements are considered beneficial to the Company and shareholders. Any repurchase of stock will be made through the open market, block trades, or in privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Under the repurchase plan, there is no minimum number of shares that the Company is required to repurchase. There were no repurchases during 2025 or through September 30, 2026.

Segment Reporting

The Company has determined that its banking regions meet the aggregation criteria of ASC 280, since each of its banking regions offer similar products and services, operate in a similar manner, have similar customers and report to the same regulatory authority, and therefore operate one line of business (community banking) located in a single geographic area (Texas). The Company's Chief Executive Officer has been identified as the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”).

The CODM regularly assesses performance of the aggregated single operating and reporting segment and decides how to allocate resources based on the net income calculated on the same basis as the net income reported in the Company's consolidated statements of earnings and other comprehensive earnings. The CODM is also regularly provided with expense information at a level that is consistent with that disclosed in the Company's consolidated statements of earnings and other comprehensive earnings.

Per Share Data

Net earnings per share (“EPS”) are computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The Company calculates dilutive EPS assuming all outstanding stock options to purchase common shares and unvested restricted stock shares and units have been exercised and/or vested at the beginning of the year (or the time of issuance, if later.) The dilutive effect of the outstanding options and restricted stock is determined by application of the treasury stock method, whereby the proceeds from the exercised options and unearned compensation for both restricted stock and stock options are assumed to be used to purchase common shares at the average market price during the respective period. There were 925,000 and 873,000 anti-dilutive shares for the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2026. There were 474,000 and 401,000 anti-dilutive shares for the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2025 respectively, that were excluded from the computation of EPS.

Other Recently Issued and Effective Authoritative Accounting Guidance

ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.” ASU 2024-03 requires new financial statement disclosures in tabular format, disaggregating information about prescribed categories underlying any relevant income statement expense caption. The prescribed categories include, among other things, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. Additionally, entities must disclose the total amount of selling expenses and, in annual reporting periods, an entity’s definition of selling expenses. ASU 2024-03 will be effective, on a prospective basis, for our 2027 annual report and interim periods thereafter. The Company is evaluating the impact of this ASU and does not believe it will have a significant impact on the Company's financial statements.

ASU 2025-08, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans.” ASU 2025-08 amends the guidance on the accounting for certain purchased loans. The new guidance makes significant changes to the accounting for certain acquired seasoned loans subject to the current expected credit loss model. The amendments in ASU 2025-08 apply prospectively and will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2027, with early adoption permitted, and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

ASU 2025-11, “Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements.” ASU 2025-11 is intended to provide clarity about the current interim reporting requirements, provides a list of the interim disclosures required by all other Codification topics and establishes a disclosure principle that requires entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. ASU 2025-11 will be effective for the Company beginning January 1, 2028, with early adoption permitted, and is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

The Company invests in mortgage-backed securities that have expected maturities that differ from their contractual maturities. These differences arise because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without a prepayment penalty. These securities include collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) and other asset backed securities. The expected maturities of these securities at September 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025, were computed by using scheduled amortization of balances and historical prepayment rates.

The amortized cost and estimated fair value of available-for-sale securities at September 30, 2026, by contractual and expected maturity, are shown below (dollars in thousands):

Allowance for Credit Losses on Available-for-Sale Securities

For available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position, we first assess whether we intend to sell, or if it is more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, any previously recognized allowances are charged-off and the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income as a provision for credit losses. For available-for-sale securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, we evaluate 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 are 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 allowance for credit losses is recorded for the credit loss, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis.
 

The number of investments in an unrealized loss position totaled 885 at September 30, 2026. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, no allowance for credit losses has been recognized on available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position as management does not believe any of the securities are impaired due to reasons of credit quality. This is based upon our analysis of the underlying risk characteristics, including credit ratings, and other qualitative factors related to our available-for-sale securities and in consideration of our historical credit loss experience and internal forecasts. The issuers of these securities continue to make timely principal and interest payments under the contractual terms of the securities. In addition, a portion of our investments are guaranteed by the U.S. Government, Treasury, or municipalities. Management does not have the intent to sell securities classified as available-for-sale in the table above and believes that it is more likely than not that we will not have to sell such securities before a recovery of cost. The unrealized losses are due to increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the underlying securities were purchased. The fair value is expected to recover as the securities approach their maturity date or repricing date or if market yields for such investments decline. At September 30, 2026, 70.0% of our available-for-sale securities that are obligations of states and political subdivisions were issued within the State of Texas, of which 55.7% are guaranteed by the Texas Permanent School Fund.

Securities, carried at approximately $3,058,894,000 on September 30, 2026, were pledged as collateral for public or trust fund deposits, repurchase agreements, borrowings and for other purposes required or permitted by law.

During the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2026, the Company had sales of available-for-sale securities totaling $121,284,000 and recognized gross gains of $2,511,000 and gross losses of $2,520,000 on sales and calls. There were no sales of investment securities that were classified as available-for-sale during the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2025.

The specific identification method was used to determine cost in order to compute the realized gains and losses.

Our subsidiary bank has established a line of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (“FHLB”) and the Federal Reserve Discount Window to provide liquidity and to secure certain uninsured municipal deposits. At September 30, 2026, these available lines of credit were $2,277,461,000 and $1,764,497,000, respectively. At September 30, 2026, there was $678,000,000 used on the FHLB line for undisbursed commitments (letters of credit) used to secure public funds. At September 30, 2026, there were no borrowings from the Federal Reserve Discount Window. At September 30, 2026, $7,420,751,000 in loans held by our bank subsidiary were subject to blanket liens as security for these lines of credits.

The Company had $60,454,000 and $56,492,000 in nonaccrual, past due 90 days or more and still accruing, and foreclosed assets at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

* The Company monitors commercial, agricultural and real estate loans after such loans are 15 days past due. Consumer loans are monitored after such loans are 30 days past due.

A loan is considered to be 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. At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had $2,240,000 and $110,000 in collateral-dependent commercial loans, collateralized by business assets, and $25,391,000 and $23,867,000 in collateral dependent commercial real estate loans, collateralized by real estate, respectively.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The allowance for credit losses (“allowance” or “ACL”) is a contra-asset valuation account, calculated in accordance with ASC 326, that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans. The ACL represents an amount which, in management’s judgment, is appropriate to absorb the lifetime expected credit losses that may be experienced on outstanding loans at the balance sheet date based on the evaluation of the size and current risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, past events, current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions and prepayment experience. The allowance for credit losses is measured and recorded upon the initial recognition of a financial asset. Determination of the appropriateness of the allowance is inherently complex and requires the use of significant and highly subjective estimates. Loans are charged-off against the allowance when deemed uncollectible by management. Expected recoveries do not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged-off and expected to be charged-off. Adjustments to the allowance are reported in our income statement as a component of the provision for credit losses. Management has made the accounting policy election to exclude accrued interest receivable on loans from the estimate of credit losses.

15


 

The Company’s methodology for estimating the allowance includes: (1) a collective quantified reserve that reflects the Company’s historical default and loss experience adjusted for expected economic conditions throughout a reasonable and supportable period and the Company’s prepayment and curtailment rates; (2) collective qualitative factors based on the risk perceived in concentrations of the loan portfolio, changes in economic conditions, early delinquencies, and factors related to credit administrations, including, among others, underwriting standards, loan-to-value ratios, and borrowers’ risk rating; and (3) individual allowances on loans where borrowers are experiencing financial difficulty or when the Company determines that the foreclosure is probable.

In calculating the allowance for credit losses, most loans are segmented into pools based upon similar characteristics and risk profiles. Common characteristics and risk profiles include the type/purpose of loan, underlying collateral, geographical similarity and historical/expected credit loss patterns. In developing these loan pools for the purposes of modeling expected credit losses, we also analyzed the degree of correlation in how loans within each portfolio respond when subjected to varying economic conditions and scenarios as well as other portfolio stress factors. For modeling purposes, our loan portfolio segments include Commercial & Industrial, Municipal, Agricultural, Construction and Development, Farm, Non-Owner Occupied and Owner Occupied CRE, Residential, Consumer Auto and Consumer Non-Auto. We periodically reassess each pool to ensure the loans within the pool continue to share similar characteristics and risk profiles and to determine whether further segmentation is necessary.

The Company applies two methodologies to estimate the allowance on its pooled portfolio segments; discounted cash flows method and weighted average remaining life method. We have elected to use the discounted cash flow method for estimated credit losses for all loans held for investment except for Agriculture, Consumer Auto and Consumer Non-Auto loans. The models related to these methodologies utilize the Company’s historical default and loss experience adjusted for future economic forecasts. The reasonable and supportable forecast period represents a one-year economic outlook for the applicable economic variables. Following the end of the reasonable and supportable forecast period, expected losses revert back to the historical mean over the next two years on a straight-line basis. Economic variables that have the most significant impact on the allowance include: Texas unemployment rate, Texas house price index and Texas retail sales index. Contractual loan level cash flows within the discounted cash flows methodology are adjusted for the Company’s historical prepayment and curtailment rate experience.

In some cases, management may determine that an individual loan exhibits unique risk characteristics which differentiate the loan from other loans within our loan pools. In such cases, the loans are evaluated for expected credit losses on an individual basis and excluded from the collective evaluation. Specific allocations of the allowance for credit losses are determined by analyzing the borrower’s ability to repay amounts owed, collateral deficiencies, the relative risk rating of the loan and economic conditions affecting the borrower’s industry, among other things. A loan is considered to be collateral dependent when, based upon management’s assessment, the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the sale of the collateral. In such cases, expected credit losses are based on the fair value of the collateral at the measurement date, adjusted for estimated selling costs if satisfaction of the loan depends on the sale of the collateral. We reevaluate the fair value of collateral supporting collateral dependent loans on an ongoing basis.

Management qualitatively adjusts model results for risk factors that are not considered within our modeling processes but are nonetheless relevant in assessing the expected credit losses within our loan pools. These qualitative factor (“Q-Factor”) adjustments may increase management’s estimate of expected credit losses based upon the estimated level of risk within the risk factor. The various risk factors that may be considered in making Q-Factor adjustments include, among other things, the impact of (i) changes in lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and practices for collections, write-offs, and recoveries, (ii) actual and expected changes in national, regional, and local economic and business conditions and developments that affect the collectability of the loan pools, (iii) changes in the nature, volume and size of a loan or the loan pools and in the terms of the underlying loans, (iv) changes in the experience, ability, and depth of our lending management and staff, (v) changes in volume and severity of past due financial assets, the volume of nonaccrual assets, and the volume and severity of adversely classified or graded assets, (vi) changes in the quality of our credit review function, (vii) changes in the value of the underlying collateral for loans that are non-collateral dependent, (viii) the existence, growth, and effect of any concentrations of credit, and (ix) other factors such as the regulatory, legal and technological environments, competition, and events such as natural disasters or health pandemics.

Management believes it uses relevant information available to make determinations about the allowance and that it has established the existing allowance in accordance with GAAP. However, the determination of the allowance requires significant judgment, and estimates of expected lifetime losses in the loan portfolio can vary significantly from the amounts actually observed. While management uses available information to recognize expected losses, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in the loans comprising the portfolio, changes in the current and forecasted economic conditions, changes to the interest rate environment which may directly impact prepayment and curtailment rate assumptions, and changes in the financial condition of borrowers.

 

Allowance for Credit Losses on Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures.

The ACL on off-balance-sheet credit exposures is a liability account, calculated in accordance with ASC 326, representing expected credit losses over the contractual period for which we are exposed to credit risk resulting from a contractual obligation to extend credit. These obligations include unfunded lines of credit, commitments to extend credit and federal funds sold to correspondent banks and standby letters of credit. No allowance is recognized if we have the unconditional right to cancel the obligation. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on the commitments expected to fund. The estimate of commitments expected to fund is affected by historical analysis of utilization rates. The expected credit loss rates applied to the commitments expected to fund are affected by the general valuation allowance utilized for outstanding balances with the same underlying assumptions and drivers. The Company’s reserve for unfunded commitments totaled $5,848,000 and $6,387,000 at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

Credit Quality Indicators

From a credit risk standpoint, the Company rates its loans in one of five categories: (i) pass, (ii) special mention, (iii) substandard, (iv) doubtful or (v) loss (which are charged-off).

The ratings of loans reflect a judgment about the risks of default and loss associated with the loan. The Company reviews the ratings on our credits as part of our ongoing monitoring of the credit quality of our loan portfolio. Ratings are adjusted to reflect the degree of risk and loss that are felt to be inherent in each credit as of each reporting period. Our methodology is structured so that specific allocations are increased in accordance with deterioration in credit quality (and a corresponding increase in risk and loss) or decreased in accordance with improvement in credit quality (and a corresponding decrease in risk and loss).

The Company has several pass credit grades that are assigned to loans based on varying levels of credits, ranging from credits that are secured by cash or marketable securities, to watch credits that have all the characteristics of an acceptable credit risk but warrant more than the normal level of supervision.

Credits rated special mention show clear signs of financial weaknesses or deterioration in credit worthiness, however, such concerns are not so pronounced that the Company generally expects to experience significant loss within the short-term. Such credits typically maintain the ability to perform within standard credit terms and credit exposure is not as prominent as credits rated more harshly.

Credits rated substandard are those in which the normal repayment of principal and interest may be, or has been, jeopardized by reason of adverse trends or developments of a financial, managerial, economic or political nature, or important weaknesses exist in collateral. A protracted workout on these credits is a distinct possibility. Prompt corrective action is therefore required to strengthen the Company’s position, and/or to reduce exposure and to assure that adequate remedial measures are taken by the borrower. Credit exposure becomes more likely in such credits and a serious evaluation of the secondary support to the credit is performed.

Credits rated doubtful are those in which full collection of principal appears highly questionable, and which some degree of loss is anticipated, even though the ultimate amount of loss may not yet be certain and/or other factors exist which could affect collection of debt. Based upon available information, positive action by the Company is required to avert or minimize loss. Credits rated doubtful are generally also placed on nonaccrual.

Modifications of receivables to debtors experiencing financial difficulty

 

The Company evaluates all loan restructurings, including restructurings for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, to determine whether they result in a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. In accordance with ASC 326, the Company only establishes a specific reserve for modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty when the loan is identified as impaired. The effect of most modifications of loans made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty is already included in the allowance for credit losses because of the measurement methodologies used to estimate the allowance. The Company adjusts the terms of loans for certain borrowers when it believes such changes will help its customers manage their loan obligations and increase the collectability of the loans.

 

During the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, there were no significant loan modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.

Note 4 - Loans Held-for-Sale

Loans held-for-sale totaled $25,521,000 and $29,992,000 at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, $4,421,000 and $4,561,000, respectively, are valued at the lower of cost or fair value, and the remaining amounts are valued under the fair value option.

These loans, which are sold on a servicing released basis, are valued using a market approach by utilizing either: (i) the fair value of the securities backed by similar mortgage loans, adjusted for certain factors to approximate the fair value of a whole mortgage loan, including the value attributable to mortgage servicing and credit risk, (ii) current commitments to purchase loans or (iii) recent observable market trades for similar loans, adjusted for credit risk and other individual loan characteristics. As these prices are derived from market observable inputs, the Company classifies these valuations as Level 2 in the fair value disclosures (see Note 9). Interest income on mortgage loans held-for-sale is recognized based on the contractual rates and reflected in interest income on loans in the consolidated statements of earnings. The Company has no continuing ownership in any residential mortgage loans sold.

The Company originates certain mortgage loans for sale in the secondary market. The mortgage loan sales contracts contain indemnification clauses should the loans default, generally in the first three to six months, or if documentation is determined not to be in compliance with regulations. The Company’s historic losses as a result of these indemnities have been insignificant.

The Company enters into interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”) with customers to originate residential mortgage loans at a specific interest rate that are ultimately sold in the secondary market. These commitments, which contain fixed expiration dates, offer the borrower an interest rate guarantee provided the loan meets underwriting guidelines and closes within the timeframe established by the Company.

The Company purchases forward mortgage-backed securities contracts to manage the changes in fair value associated with changes in interest rates related to a portion of the IRLCs. These instruments are typically entered into at the time the IRLC is made in the aggregate.

The fair values of IRLCs are based on current secondary market prices for underlying loans and estimated servicing value with similar coupons, maturity and credit quality, subject to the anticipated loan funding probability (pull-through rate) net of estimated costs to originate the loan. The fair value of IRLCs is subject to change primarily due to changes in interest rates and the estimated pull-through rate. These commitments are classified as Level 3 in the fair value disclosures (see Note 9).

Forward mortgage-backed securities contracts are exchange-traded or traded within highly active dealer markets. In order to determine the fair value of these instruments, the Company utilizes the exchange price or dealer market price for the particular derivative contract and these instruments are therefore classified as Level 2 in the fair value disclosures (see Note 9). The estimated fair values are subject to change primarily due to changes in interest rates. The impact of these forward contracts is included in gain on sale and fees on mortgage loans in the statement of earnings.

These financial instruments are not designated as hedging instruments for accounting purposes. All derivatives are carried at fair value in either other assets or other liabilities and are reflected in the gain on sale and fees on mortgage loans in the consolidated statement of earnings.

Securities sold under repurchase agreements are generally with significant customers of the Company that require short-term liquidity for their funds for which the Company pledges certain securities that have a fair value equal to at least the amount of the borrowings. The agreements mature daily and therefore the risk arising from a decline in the fair value of the collateral pledged is minimal. The securities pledged are mortgage-backed securities. These agreements do not include “right of set-off” provisions and therefore the Company does not offset such agreements for financial reporting purposes.

The Company renewed its loan agreement, effective June 30, 2025, with Frost Bank. Under the loan agreement, as renewed and amended, we are permitted to draw up to $50,000,000 on a revolving line of credit. There was no outstanding balance under the line of credit as of September 30, 2026.

During 2021, the Company began investing in qualifying Community Development Entities ("CDE") under the federal New Market Tax Credits ("NMTC") program. See Note 7 for further discussion of our activity and related balances on the consolidated balance sheets, including $21,053,000 within other borrowings shown above.

Note 7 - Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $16,748,000 for the third quarter of 2026 as compared to $10,897,000 for the same period in 2025. The Company’s effective tax rates on pretax income were 18.4% and 17.3% for the third quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively. Income tax expense was $48,608,000 for the first nine months of 2026 as compared to $39,785,000 for the same period in 2025. The Company’s effective tax rates on pretax income were 18.2% and 18.1% for the first nine months of 2026 and 2025, respectively. The effective tax rates differ from the statutory federal tax rate of 21% primarily due to tax exempt interest income earned on certain investment securities and loans, the deductibility of dividends paid to our employee stock ownership plan, excess tax benefits for distributions under our deferred compensation plan and vesting of equity awards, New Market Tax Credits, Low Income Housing Tax Credits and the donation of a former branch facility.

Low Income Housing Tax Credit Investments - The Company has investments in an affordable housing fund that will invest in real estate projects that qualify for the federal low-income housing tax credit ("LIHTC") program designed to promote private development of low income housing. The investments made by the fund will generate a return to the Company primarily through the realization of LIHTCs, and also through federal tax deductions generated from the ongoing operating losses from the investees of the fund. The Company's investment in the fund will be amortized through income tax expense using the proportional amortization method as related tax credits are utilized by the Company. The carrying values of investments in LIHTC's were $34,836,000 and $27,500,000 as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and is included as a component of other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. Total unfunded contingent commitments related to the LIHTC investments totaled $29,321,000 and $21,114,000 at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, a component of other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company expects the remaining commitments to be funded by 2043. There were no impairment losses on the LIHTC investments during the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

New Market Tax Credit Investments - During 2021, the Company began investing in qualifying CDEs under the federal NMTC program. NMTC investments are made through the third-party CDEs which are qualified through the U.S. Department of Treasury and receive periodic allocation of amounts under the NMTC program. NMTCs are generated from qualified investments by the CDEs utilizing equity investments made by a taxpayer, like the Company. Through these equity investments, the Company will receive the tax benefits from the NMTCs equal to 39% of the qualified investment from the CDE to qualifying eligible projects over a seven year period. The Company's equity investments in the CDEs is amortized using the proportional amortization method and related tax credits are allocated to the Company. At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the consolidated balance sheet of the Company included an $18,000,000 loan to the investee in loans and the $21,053,000 leveraged loan from the investee within other borrowings (see Note 6). At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the consolidated balance sheet of the Company included CDE investments in other assets of $22,149,000 and $23,128,000, respectively.

Note 8 - Stock Based Compensation

On April 27, 2021, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2021 Omnibus Stock and Incentive Plan (“2021 Plan”) and reserved 2,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance under this plan. At September 30, 2026, the Company had 605,607 shares of stock remaining for issuance under the plan. The 2021 Plan supersedes all prior stock option and restricted stock plans with shares previously reserved for issuance under such plans cancelled.

Restricted Stock Units

Under the 2021 Plan, the Company grants restricted stock units under compensation arrangements for the benefit of employees and senior and executive officers. Restricted stock unit grants are subject to time-based vesting. The total number of restricted stock units granted represents the maximum number of restricted stock units eligible to vest based upon the service conditions set forth in the grant agreements. The following table summarizes information about the changes in restricted stock units for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

Performance Stock Units

Also under the 2021 Plan, the Company awards performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”) to employees and senior and executive officers. Under the terms of the award, the number of units that will vest and convert to shares of common stock will be based on the extent to which the Company achieves specific performance criteria during the fixed three-year performance period. The number of shares issued upon vesting will range from 0% to 200% of the PSUs granted. The PSUs vest at the end of a three-year period based on either 50% each on average adjusted earnings per share growth and return on average assets, 100% return on average assets, or 50% each on return on average assets and relative total shareholder return, as reported, adjusted for unusual gains/losses, merger expenses, and other items as approved by the compensation committee of the Company's board of directors. Performance for each period is measured relative to other U.S. publicly traded banks with $10 billion to $50 billion in assets. Compensation expense for the PSUs that do not contain market-based conditions will be estimated each period based on the fair value of the stock at the grant date and the most probable outcome of the performance condition, adjusted for the passage of time within the vesting period of the awards. The value of PSUs that include a market-based condition is estimated on the grant date using a Monte Carlo simulation model.

(1) PSUs are presented as outstanding, granted and forfeited in the table above assuming targets are met and the awards pay out at 100%. PSU awards are settled with payouts ranging from 0% to 200% of the target award value based on the Company's performance relative to a predefined peer group over a fixed three-year performance period. The performance adjustment represents the difference in shares ultimately awarded due to performance attainment above or below target.

Restricted Stock Awards

Under the 2021 Plan, the Company grants restricted stock awards under compensation arrangements for the benefit of directors. Restricted stock awards are subject to time-based vesting. The total number of restricted stock awards granted represents the maximum number of shares of restricted stock eligible to vest based upon the service conditions set forth in the grant agreements.

The total fair value of restricted stock unit, performance stock unit, and restricted stock awards vested for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, was $3,424,000 and $2,808,000, respectively.

The Company recorded restricted stock unit and performance-based restricted stock unit expense for employees of $1,099,000 and $751,000 for the three-months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company recorded restricted stock unit and performance-based restricted stock unit expense for employees of $3,071,000 and $2,474,000 for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company recorded director expense related to these restricted stock awards of $210,000 and $210,000, for the three-months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. The Company recorded director expense related to these restricted stock awards of $630,000 and $607,000, for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

As of September 30, 2026 there was $6,660,000 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted stock units, performance-based restricted stock units, and restricted stock awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.40 years. At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there was $204,000 and $199,000, respectively, accrued in other liabilities related to dividends declared to be paid upon vesting.

Stock Option Plans

Prior to the approval of the 2021 Plan, the 2012 Incentive Stock Option Plan (the “2012 Plan”) provided for the granting of options to employees of the Company at prices not less than market value at the date of the grant. The 2012 Plan provided that options granted vest and are exercisable after two years from the date of grant and vest at a rate of 20% each year thereafter and have a 10-year term. The most recent grants from the 2021 Plan provided that 20% of the options granted vest and are exercisable after one year from the date of grant and the remaining options vest and are exercisable at a rate of 20% each year thereafter, or 33.3% of the options granted are vested and exercisable after one year from the date of the grant and the remaining options are vested and exercisable at a rate of 33.3% each year thereafter, and have a 10-year term. Shares are issued under the 2012 Plan and the 2021 Plan from available authorized shares.

Note 9 - Fair Value Disclosures

The authoritative accounting guidance for fair value measurements defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The price in the principal (or most advantageous) market used to measure the fair value of the asset or liability shall not be adjusted for transaction costs. An orderly transaction is a transaction that assumes exposure to the market for a period prior to the measurement date to allow for marketing activities that are usual and customary for transactions involving such assets and liabilities; it is not a forced transaction. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal market that are (i) independent, (ii) knowledgeable, (iii) able to transact, and (iv) willing to transact.

The authoritative accounting guidance requires the use of valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach and/or the cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts, such as cash flows or earnings, to a single present amount on a discounted basis. The cost approach is based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement costs). Valuation techniques should be consistently applied. Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Inputs may be observable, meaning those that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. In that regard, the authoritative guidance 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 Inputs – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
•
Level 2 Inputs – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
•
Level 3 Inputs – Significant unobservable inputs that reflect an entity’s own assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.

A description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below.

27


 

In general, fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that primarily use, as inputs, observable market-based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value. While management believes the Company’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.

Financial assets and financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring and nonrecurring basis include the following:

Available-for-sale investment securities: Investment securities classified as available-for-sale are generally reported at fair value utilizing Levels 1 and 2 inputs. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayments speeds, credit information, and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.

Collateral dependent loans: The fair value of collateral-dependent loans with specific allocations of the allowance for credit losses is generally based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available for similar loans and collateral underlying such loans. Collateral values are estimated using Level 2 inputs based on observable market data or independent appraisals using Level 3 inputs. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrowers financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management's historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and managements expertise and knowledge of the client and clients' business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Collateral-dependent loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis and adjusted in accordance with the allowance policy.

See Notes 4 and 5 related to the determination of fair value for loans held-for-sale, IRLCs and forward mortgage-backed securities trades.

There were no transfers between Level 2 and Level 3 during the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

The following table summarizes the Company’s available-for-sale securities, loans held-for-sale, and derivatives which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value (dollars in thousands):

* This includes gains on loans held-for-sale carried under the fair value method and lower of cost or market.

No residential mortgage loans held-for-sale were 90 days or more past due or considered nonaccrual as of September 30, 2026 or December 31, 2025. No significant credit losses were recognized on mortgage loans held-for-sale for the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

Non-Financial Assets and Non-Financial Liabilities: We do not have any non-financial assets or non-financial liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis. From time to time, non-financial assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis may include certain foreclosed assets, which, upon initial recognition, were remeasured and reported at fair value through a charge-off to the allowance for credit losses on loans, and certain foreclosed assets which, subsequent to their initial recognition, were remeasured at fair value through a write-down included in other non-interest expense. During the reported periods, all fair value measurements for foreclosed assets utilized Level 2 inputs based on observable market data, generally third-party appraisals, or Level 3 inputs based on customized discounting criteria. These appraisals are evaluated individually and discounted as necessary due to the age of the appraisal, lack of comparable sales, expected holding periods of property or special use type of the property. Such discounts vary by appraisal based on the above factors but generally range from 5% to 25% of the appraised value. Re-evaluation of other real estate owned is performed at least annually as required by regulatory guidelines or more often if particular circumstances arise. There were no significant other real estate owned properties that were re-measured subsequent to their initial transfer to other real estate owned during the three and nine-months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, other real estate owned totaled $3,198,000 and $280,000, respectively.

For the Company, as for most financial institutions, substantially all of its assets and liabilities are considered financial instruments. Many of the Company’s financial instruments, however, lack an available trading market as characterized by a willing buyer and willing seller engaging in an exchange transaction.

The estimated fair value amounts of financial instruments have been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required to interpret data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. In addition, reasonable comparability between financial institutions may not be likely due to the wide range of permitted valuation techniques and numerous estimates that must be made given the absence of active secondary markets for many of the financial instruments. This lack of uniform valuation methodologies also introduces a greater degree of subjectivity to these estimated fair values.

Financial instruments with stated maturities have been valued using a present value discounted cash flow with a discount rate approximating current market for similar assets and liabilities and are considered Levels 2 and 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Financial instrument liabilities with no stated maturities have an estimated fair value equal to both the amount payable on demand and the carrying value and are considered Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value and the estimated fair value of the Company’s contractual off-balance-sheet unfunded lines of credit, loan commitments and letters of credit, are generally priced at market at the time of funding.

Introduction

 

As a financial holding company, we generate most of our revenue from interest on loans and investments, wealth management fees, gain on sale of mortgage loans and service charges, interchange income and fees on deposit accounts. Our primary source of funding for our loans and investments are deposits held by our bank subsidiary, First Financial Bank. Our largest expenses are interest on deposits and salaries and related employee benefits. We measure our performance by calculating our return on average assets, return on average equity, regulatory capital ratios, net interest margin and efficiency ratio, which is calculated by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis and noninterest income.

 

The following discussion and analysis of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and accompanying footnotes included in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q as well as those included in the Company’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Critical Accounting Policies

We prepare consolidated financial statements based on generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and customary practices in the banking industry. These policies, in certain areas, require us to make significant estimates and assumptions.

We deem a policy critical if (i) the accounting estimate requires us to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time we make the accounting estimate; and (ii) different estimates that reasonably could have been used in the current period, or changes in the accounting estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, would have a material impact on the financial statements.

We deem our most critical accounting policies to be (i) our allowance for credit losses and our provision for credit losses and (ii) our valuation of financial instruments. We have other significant accounting policies and continue to evaluate the materiality of their impact on our consolidated financial statements, but we believe these other policies either do not generally require us to make estimates and judgments that are difficult or subjective, or it is less likely they would have a material impact on our reported results for a given period. A discussion of (i) our allowance for credit losses and our provision for credit losses and (ii) our valuation of financial instruments is included in Notes 1, 3, and 9 to our Consolidated Financial Statements.

It is difficult to estimate how potential changes in any one economic factor or input might affect the overall allowance because a wide variety of factors and inputs are considered in estimating the ACL and changes in those factors and inputs considered may not occur at the same rate and may not be consistent across all product types. Additionally, changes in factors and inputs may be directionally inconsistent, such that improvement in one factor may offset deterioration in others. A large driver to the ACL is the overall credit quality of the underlying credits. Deterioration or improvement in credit quality could have a significant impact on the overall level of ACL.

Stock Repurchase

On July 28, 2026, the Company's Board of Directors renewed and increased the size of the authorization to repurchase up to 7.2 million common shares through July 31, 2027. The prior authorization to repurchase up to 5 million common shares had been in place since July 27, 2021. The stock repurchase plan authorizes management to repurchase and retire the stock at such time as repurchases and retirements are considered beneficial to the Company and shareholders. Any repurchase of stock will be made through the open market, block trades, or in privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. Under the repurchase plan, there is no minimum number of shares that the Company is required to repurchase. There have been no repurchases during 2025 or through September 30, 2026.

Results of Operations

Performance Summary. Net earnings for the third quarter of 2026 were $74.3 million, an increase of 42.2% when compared to earnings of $52.3 million for the third quarter of 2025. Diluted earnings per share was $0.52 for the third quarter of 2026 and $0.36 for the third quarter of 2025.

The return on average assets was 1.93% for the third quarter of 2026, as compared to 1.44% for the third quarter of 2025, respectively. The return on average equity was 15.02% for the third quarter of 2026, as compared to 11.85% for the third quarter of 2025.

Net earnings for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026 were $217.7 million, an increase of 20.8% when compared to earnings of $180.3 million for the nine-months ended September 30, 2025. Diluted earnings per share was $1.51 for the first nine months of 2026 and $1.26 for the first nine months of 2025.

The return on average assets was 1.90% for the first nine months of 2026, as compared to 1.70% for the first nine months of 2025. The return on average equity was 14.85% for the first nine months of 2026, as compared to 14.22% for the first nine months of 2025.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income on earning assets and interest expense on liabilities incurred to fund those assets. Our earning assets consist primarily of loans and investment securities. Our liabilities to fund those assets consist primarily of noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing deposits.

Tax-equivalent net interest income was $142.1 million for the third quarter of 2026, as compared to $130.4 million for the same period last year. The increase in tax equivalent net interest income for the third quarter of 2026 compared to the same quarter in 2025 was largely attributable to the increases in average loans and the increase in average balance and the rate of return on taxable investment securities. Average earning assets were $14.4 billion for the third quarter of 2026, as compared to $13.6 billion during the third quarter of 2025. The increase of $828.3 million in average earning assets for the third quarter of 2026 when compared to the same period in 2025 was primarily a result of (i) an increase in taxable investment securities of $544.1 million, and (ii) an increase in loans of $219.6 million. Average interest-bearing liabilities were $9.7 billion for the third quarter of 2026, as compared to $9.2 billion in the same period in 2025. The yield on earning assets decreased 4 basis points while the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased 22 basis points for the third quarter of 2026 when compared to the third quarter of 2025.

Tax-equivalent net interest income was $421.4 million for the first nine months of 2026, as compared to $378.6 million for the same period last year. The increase in tax equivalent net interest income for the first nine months of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 was largely attributable to the increase in average balance and the rate of return on taxable and tax-exempt investment securities, and increases in average loans. Average earning assets were $14.5 billion for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to $13.4 billion during the nine-months ended September 30, 2025. The increase of $1.1 billion in average earning assets for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026 when compared to the same period in 2025 was primarily a result of (i) an increase in taxable investment securities of $578.6 million, (ii) an increase in loans of $270.6 million and (iii) an increase in tax-exempt investment securities of $198.6 million. Average interest-bearing liabilities were $9.8 billion for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to $9.1 billion in the same period in 2025. The yield on earning assets decreased 3 basis points while the rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased 20 basis points for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026 when compared to the same period in 2025.

Computed on a tax-equivalent basis assuming a marginal tax rate of 21%.
(2)
Nonaccrual loans are included in loans.

The net interest margin, on a tax equivalent basis, was 3.91% for the third quarter of 2026, an increase of 11 basis points from the same period in 2025. The net interest margin, on a tax equivalent basis, was 3.89% for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of 10 basis points from the same period in 2025. The net interest margin has expanded during the past year primarily due to (i) strong growth in deposits that has enabled the Company to deploy those funds into the higher yielding loans and securities portfolios, (ii) a reduction in cost of deposits, and (iii) investment of lower yielding securities cash flows into higher yielding bonds. The Federal Reserve decreased interest rates by 100 basis points in 2024 and 25 basis points in September, October, and December 2025, respectively. Most recently, the Federal Reserve increased interest rates by 25 basis points in September 2026, resulting in a target rate of 3.75% to 4.00% at September 30, 2026.

The net interest margin, which measures tax-equivalent net interest income as a percentage of average earning assets, is illustrated in Table 2.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2026 was $35.6 million, an increase of $1.4 million, when compared to $34.3 million in the same quarter of 2025. Wealth management fee income increased to $14.5 million for the third quarter of 2026 compared to $13.0 million for the third quarter of 2025. Increases are related to new account growth and increased mineral fee income due to oil and gas prices. The market value of assets under management totaled $12.4 billion at September 30, 2026, compared to $12.1 billion at September 30, 2025. Service charges on deposits increased to $6.7 million for the third quarter of 2026 compared with $6.5 million for the third quarter of 2025, primarily driven by increases in net new accounts. Mortgage related income decreased to $4.2 million for the third quarter of 2026 compared to $4.4 million in the third quarter of 2025. Mortgage volume and margins were impacted by the spike in long term rates during the third quarter of 2026.

 

Noninterest income for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026 was $103.6 million, an increase of $6.2 million, when compared to $97.4 million in the same period in 2025. Wealth Management fee income increased to $41.8 million for the first nine months of 2026 compared to $38.3 million for the first nine months of 2025 mostly driven by the increase in market value of trust assets managed. Mortgage related income increased to $13.1 million for the first nine months of 2026 compared to $11.3 million for the same period in 2025 benefiting from the restructuring of the secondary mortgage department, new mortgage lenders and an increase in the volume of mortgage loans originated.

Noninterest Expense. Total noninterest expense for the three-months ended September 30, 2026 was $81.1 million, compared to $73.7 million for the same period of 2025. An important measure in determining whether a financial institution effectively manages noninterest expense is the efficiency ratio, which is calculated by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis and noninterest income. Lower ratios indicate better efficiency since more income is generated with a lower noninterest expense total. Our efficiency ratio was 45.59% for the third quarter of 2026 compared to 44.74% for the same quarter in 2025.

 

Salaries, commissions and employee benefits increased to $47.8 million for the third quarter of 2026 compared to $42.6 million for the same period in 2025. The increase from prior year is primarily resulting from annual merit-based and market-driven pay increases that were effective March 1st in the current year as well as additions to staff over the past year.

 

All other categories of noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2026 totaled $33.2 million, compared to $31.1 million in the same quarter a year ago. Noninterest expense, excluding salary related costs, for the three-months ended September 30, 2026 increased when compared to the same period in 2025 largely due to increases in professional fees, and software amortization and expense offset by decreases in operational and other losses and debit card expenses.

 

Total noninterest expense for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026 was $238.9 million, compared to $215.7 million for the same period of 2025. Our efficiency ratio was 45.51% for the first nine months of 2026 compared to 45.33% during the same period in 2025.

Salaries, commissions and employee benefits for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026 totaled $143.5 million, compared to $127.3 million for the same period in 2025. The increase from prior year is primarily resulting from annual merit-based and market-driven pay increases that were effective March 1st in the current year as well as additions to staff over the past year.

All other categories of noninterest expense for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026 totaled $95.5 million, compared to $88.4 million in the same period a year ago. Noninterest expense, excluding salary related costs, for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026 increased when compared to the same period in 2025 largely due to increases in software amortization and expense and professional and service fees partially offset by decreases in debit card expenses.

Balance Sheet Review

 

Loans. The portfolio is comprised of loans made to businesses, professionals, municipalities, individuals, and farm and ranch operations primarily in the trade areas served by our subsidiary bank. As of September 30, 2026, total loans held-for-investment were $8.5 billion, an increase of $380.5 million, as compared to December 31, 2025 balances.

As compared to year-end 2025 balances, total real estate loans increased $153.8 million, total commercial loans increased $150.0 million, total consumer loans increased $92.8 million, and agricultural loans decreased $16.0 million. Loans averaged $8.5 billion for the third quarter of 2026, an increase of $219.6 million over the prior year third quarter average balances. Loans averaged $8.4 billion for the first nine months of 2026, an increase of $270.6 million from the average balance during the first nine months of 2025.

Loan portfolio segments include Commercial & Industrial, Municipal, Agricultural, Construction and Development, Farm, Non-Owner Occupied and Owner Occupied CRE, Residential, Consumer Auto and Consumer Non-Auto. This segmentation allows for a more precise pooling of loans with similar credit risk characteristics and credit monitor procedures for the Company’s calculation of its allowance for credit losses.

Loans held-for-sale, consisting of secondary market mortgage loans, totaled $25.5 million and $30.0 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, $4.4 million and $4.6 million, respectively, are valued using the lower of cost or fair value, and the remaining amounts are valued under the fair value option.

 

Commercial real estate loans (owner and non-owner occupied CRE) represent 24.4% of the Company's total loan portfolio as of September 30, 2026. Non-owner occupied CRE represents $919.8 million, or 10.8%, of the Company's total loan portfolio as of September 30, 2026. The properties securing this portfolio are diverse as to geographic location in Texas as well as industry type. Collateral for CRE loans is located throughout the Company’s markets in central west Texas, the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex and southeast Texas with less than 1% of properties located outside of the state. The largest concentrations in the CRE portfolio as to type are industrial/manufacturing at approximately 18.1% and multi-tenant retail at approximately 7.7% as of September 30, 2026. All additional property CRE portfolio property type categories are below the identified concentration levels. Credit underwriting standards are periodically reviewed and adjusted based upon observations from our ongoing monitoring of economic conditions in our lending areas. In response to the current interest rate environment, the Company has enhanced stress testing and loan review activities to mitigate interest rate reprice risk with a specific emphasis on borrowers’ abilities to absorb the impact of higher interest rates as loans that were made in a much lower rate environment renew.

Of the $4.9 billion of variable interest rate loans shown above, loans totaling $2.5 billion mature or reprice over the next twelve months.

Asset Quality. Our loan portfolio is subject to periodic reviews by our centralized independent loan review group, engaged third-parties, as well as periodic examinations by bank regulatory agencies. Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when, in the judgment of management, the collectability of principal or interest under the original terms becomes doubtful. Nonaccrual, past due 90 days or more and still accruing, and foreclosed assets were $60.5 million at September 30, 2026, as compared to $56.5 million at December 31, 2025. As a percent of loans held-for-investment and foreclosed assets, these assets were 0.71% at September 30, 2026 and 0.69% at December 31, 2025. As a percent of total assets, these assets were 0.40% at September 30, 2026, as compared to 0.37% at December 31, 2025, respectively. We believe the level of these assets to be manageable and are not aware of any material classified credits not properly disclosed as nonperforming at September 30, 2026.

We record interest payments received on nonaccrual loans as reductions of principal. Prior to the loans being placed on nonaccrual, we recognized interest income on loans of approximately $795 thousand for the year ended December 31, 2025. Such amounts for the 2026 and 2025 interim periods were not significant. If interest on all nonaccrual loans had been recognized on a full accrual basis during the year ended December 31, 2025, such income would have been approximately $5.7 million.

Allowance for Credit Losses. The allowance for credit losses is the amount we determine as of a specific date to be appropriate to absorb current expected credit losses on existing loans. For a discussion of our methodology, see Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited).

The provision for loan losses of $2.4 million for the three-months ended September 30, 2026 is combined with the provision reversal for unfunded commitments of $360 thousand and reported in the net aggregate of $2.0 million under the provision for credit losses in the consolidated statements of earnings for the three-months ended September 30, 2026. The provision for loan losses of $9.0 million for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026 is combined with the provision reversal for unfunded commitments of $539 thousand and reported in the net aggregate of $8.5 million under the provision for credit losses in the consolidated statements of earnings for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026.

The provision for loan losses of $25.5 million for the three-months ended September 30, 2025 is combined with the provision reversal for unfunded commitments of $1.1 million and reported in the net aggregate of $24.4 million under the provision for credit losses in the consolidated statements of earnings for the three-months ended September 30, 2025. The provision for loan losses of $30.9 million for the nine-months ended September 30, 2025 is combined with the provision for unfunded commitments of $165 thousand and reported in the net aggregate of $31.1 million under the provision for credit losses in the consolidated statements of earnings for the nine-months ended September 30, 2025.

As a percent of average loans, annualized net charge-offs were 0.04% for the three-months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to annualized net charge-offs of 1.07% for the three-months ended September 30, 2025. For the nine-months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, annualized net charge-offs were 0.01% and 0.39%, respectively. The third quarter of 2025 was impacted by a $21.6 million credit loss due to borrower fraud. The allowance for credit losses as a percent of loans held-for-investment was 1.33% as of September 30, 2026, as compared to 1.29% for December 31, 2025.

Interest-Bearing Demand Deposits in Banks. The Company had interest-bearing deposits in banks of $292.8 million at September 30, 2026 compared to $826.9 million at December 31, 2025. At September 30, 2026, interest-bearing deposits in banks included $231.9 million maintained at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas and $60.9 million on deposit with the FHLB.

Available-for-Sale Securities. At September 30, 2026, securities with a fair value of $5.4 billion were classified as securities available-for-sale. As compared to December 31, 2025, the available-for-sale portfolio at September 30, 2026 reflected (i) an increase of $211.7 million in mortgage-backed securities, (ii) a decrease of $277.2 million in obligations of states and political subdivisions, (iii) a decrease of $60.8 million in U.S. Treasury securities, and (iv) an increase of $197 thousand in corporate bonds and other securities. Fluctuations in the available-for-sale securities portfolio balances were primarily driven by purchases and sales, calls or maturities, and changes in unrealized losses during the first nine-months of 2026. Our mortgage related securities are backed by GNMA, FNMA or FHLMC, or are collateralized by securities backed by these agencies.

See the below table and Note 2 to the Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited) for additional disclosures relating to the maturities and fair values of the investment portfolio at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

All yields are computed on a tax-equivalent basis assuming a marginal tax rate of 21%. Yields on available-for-sale securities are based on amortized cost. Maturities of mortgage-backed securities are based on contractual maturities and could differ due to prepayments of underlying mortgages. The expected maturities of these securities were computed by using scheduled amortization of balances and historical prepayment rates. Maturities of other securities are reported at the earlier of maturity date or call date.

As of September 30, 2026, the investment portfolio had an overall tax equivalent yield of 3.27%, a weighted average life of 7.5 years and modified duration of 5.9 years.

The estimated amount of uninsured and uncollateralized deposits including related accrued and unpaid interest is approximately $4.3 billion, or 32.9% of total deposits, as of September 30, 2026.

 

Borrowings. Included in borrowings were federal funds purchased, advances from the FHLB and other borrowings of $21.9 million and $21.7 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The average balance of federal funds purchased, advances from the FHLB and other borrowings were $22.7 million and $56.2 million in the third quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively. The weighted average interest rates paid on these borrowings were 1.42% and 3.33% for the third quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively. The average balance of federal funds purchased, advances from the FHLB and other borrowings were $24.4 million and $52.4 million in the first nine months of 2026 and 2025, respectively. The weighted average interest rates paid on these borrowings were 1.53% and 2.96% for the first nine months of 2026 and 2025, respectively.

 

Repurchase Agreements. Securities sold under repurchase agreements of $43.1 million and $63.0 million at September 30, 2026, and December 31, 2025, respectively. Securities sold under repurchase agreements are generally with significant customers of the Company that require short-term liquidity for their funds for which we pledge certain securities that have a fair value equal to at least the amount of the short-term borrowings. The average balances of securities sold under repurchase agreements were $57.9 million and $50.1 million for the third quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively. The average rates paid on securities sold under repurchase agreements were 1.41% and 1.66% for the third quarters of 2026 and 2025, respectively. The average balances of securities sold under repurchase agreements were $60.4 million and $52.8 million for the first nine months of 2026 and 2025, respectively. The average rates paid on securities sold under repurchase agreements were 1.46% and 1.62% for the first nine months of 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate risk results when the maturity or repricing intervals of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities are different. Our exposure to interest rate risk is managed primarily through our strategy of selecting the types and terms of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that generate favorable earnings while limiting the potential negative effects of changes in market interest rates. We use no off-balance-sheet financial instruments to manage interest rate risk.

Our subsidiary bank has an asset liability management committee that monitors interest rate risk and compliance with investment policies. The subsidiary bank utilizes an earnings simulation model as the primary quantitative tool in measuring the amount of interest rate risk associated with

43


 

changing market rates. The model quantifies the effects of various interest rate scenarios on projected net interest income and net income over the next twelve months. The model measures the impact on net interest income relative to a base case scenario of hypothetical fluctuations in interest rates over the next twelve months. These simulations incorporate assumptions regarding balance sheet growth and mix, pricing and the re-pricing and maturity characteristics of the existing and projected balance sheet.

The following analysis depicts the estimated impact on net interest income of immediate changes in interest rates at the specified levels for the periods presented.

The results for the net interest income simulations as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 resulted in an asset sensitive position. These are good faith estimates and assume that the composition of our interest sensitive assets and liabilities existing at each year-end will remain constant over the relevant twelve-month measurement period and that changes in market interest rates are instantaneous and sustained across the yield curve regardless of duration of pricing characteristics on specific assets or liabilities. Also, this analysis does not contemplate any actions that we might undertake in response to changes in market interest rates. We believe these estimates are not necessarily indicative of what actually could occur in the event of immediate interest rate increases or decreases of this magnitude. As interest-bearing assets and liabilities reprice in different time frames and proportions to market interest rate movements, various assumptions must be made based on historical relationships of these variables in reaching any conclusion. Since these correlations are based on competitive and market conditions, we anticipate that our future results will likely be different from the foregoing estimates, and such differences could be material.

Should we be unable to maintain a reasonable balance of maturities and repricing of our interest-earning assets and our interest-bearing liabilities, we could be required to dispose of our assets in an unfavorable manner or pay a higher than market rate to fund our activities. Our asset liability management committee oversees and monitors this risk.

The fair value of our investment securities classified as available-for-sale totaled $5.4 billion at September 30, 2026. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the corresponding net unrealized loss before taxes of $342.0 million at December 31, 2025, changed to a net unrealized loss before taxes of $620.2 million at September 30, 2026, which is recorded net of taxes in accumulated other comprehensive earnings (loss) in shareholders' equity. The unrealized gains or losses, net of taxes, on the portfolio are excluded from the calculation of all regulatory capital ratios. The changes in the fair value were driven by changes in interest rates based on expected actions by the Federal Reserve Board and other market conditions. The overall valuation of the portfolio is most correlated to the 5-year U.S. Treasury rates based on the composition and duration of the portfolio. At September 30, 2026, the 5-year U.S. Treasury rate was 5.09% compared to 3.72% at December 31, 2025, representing a 137 basis point increase during the first nine months of 2026. As of September 30, 2026, an increase of 100 basis points in the 5-year U.S. Treasury rate would result in an increase to unrealized losses by approximately $284 million before taxes, while a 100 basis point decrease in the same rate would result in a decrease to unrealized losses by approximately $262 million before taxes. Management does not have the intent to sell impaired available-for-sale securities before fair value recovers to the current amortized cost, and it is more-likely-than-not that the Company will not be required to sell impaired securities before the fair value recovers, which may be maturity.

Capital and Liquidity

Capital. We evaluate capital resources by our ability to maintain adequate regulatory capital ratios to do business in the banking industry. Issues related to capital resources arise primarily when we are growing at an accelerated rate but not retaining a significant amount of our profits or when we experience significant asset quality deterioration.

Total shareholders’ equity was $1.8 billion, or 12.1% of total assets at September 30, 2026, as compared to $1.9 billion, or 12.4% of total assets at December 31, 2025. Included in shareholders' equity at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were $489.6 million and $269.9 million, respectively, in unrealized losses on investment securities available-for-sale, net of related income taxes, although such amount is excluded from and does not impact regulatory capital. For the third quarter of 2026, total shareholders' equity averaged $2.0 billion, or 12.8% of average assets, as compared to $1.7 billion, or 12.1% of average assets, during the same period in 2025. For the first nine months of 2026, total shareholders' equity averaged $2.0 billion, or 12.8% of average assets, as compared to $1.7 billion or 11.9% of average assets, during the same period in 2025.

Banking regulators measure capital adequacy by means of the risk-based capital ratios and the leverage ratio under the Basel III rules and prompt corrective action regulations. The risk-based capital rules provide for the weighting of assets and off-balance-sheet commitments and contingencies according to prescribed risk categories. Regulatory capital is then divided by risk-weighted assets to determine the risk-adjusted capital ratios. The leverage ratio is computed by dividing shareholders’ equity less intangible assets by quarter-to-date average assets less intangible assets.

Under the Basel III rules, the Company must maintain a capital conservation buffer of 2.50%. The capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress and requires increased capital levels for the purpose of capital distributions and other payments. Failure to meet the amount of the buffer will result in restrictions on the Company’s ability to make capital distributions, including dividend payments and stock repurchases, and to pay discretionary bonuses to executive officers.

As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had a total risk-based capital ratio of 21.66% and 21.17%, a Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of 20.45% and 19.99%, and a common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets ratio of 20.45% and 19.99%, and a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 13.12% and 12.55%, respectively. The regulatory capital ratios as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were calculated under Basel III rules.

In connection with the adoption of the Basel III regulatory capital framework, our subsidiary bank made the election to continue to exclude accumulated other comprehensive income from available-for-sale securities (“AOCI”) from capital in connection with its quarterly financial filing and, in effect, to retain the AOCI treatment under the prior capital rules.

Liquidity. Liquidity management involves our ability to convert assets to cash to meet our current and future obligations to customers at any time. Such needs can develop from loan demand, deposit withdrawals or acquisition opportunities. Potential obligations resulting from the issuance of standby letters of credit and commitments to fund future borrowings to our loan customers are other factors affecting our liquidity needs. Many of these obligations and commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon; therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements affecting our liquidity position. The potential need for liquidity arising from these types of financial instruments is represented by the contractual notional amount of the instrument. Asset liquidity is provided by cash and assets which are readily marketable, or which will mature in the near future. Liquid assets include cash, federal funds sold, and short-term investments in time deposits in banks. Liquidity is also provided by access to funding sources, which include core depositors and correspondent banks that maintain accounts with and sell federal funds to our subsidiary bank. Other sources of funds include our ability to borrow from short-term sources, such as purchasing federal funds from correspondent banks, sales of securities under agreements to repurchase and other borrowings (see below) and an unfunded $50 million revolving line of credit established with Frost Bank, a nonaffiliated bank, which matures on June 30, 2027 (see next paragraph). Our subsidiary bank also has federal funds purchased lines of credit with two non-affiliated banks totaling $175 million. At September 30, 2026, there were no amounts drawn on these lines of credit. Our subsidiary bank also has (i) an available line of credit with the FHLB totaling $2.3 billion at September 30, 2026, secured by portions of our loan portfolio and certain investment securities, and (ii) access to approximately $1.8 billion at the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas Discount Window lending program secured by portions of certain investment securities and portions of our loan portfolio. At September 30, 2026, there was $678.0 million used on the FHLB line advance for undisbursed commitments (letters of credit) used to secure public funds.

The Company renewed and amended its loan agreement, effective June 30, 2025, with Frost Bank. Under the loan agreement, as renewed and amended, we are permitted to draw up to $50 million on a revolving line of credit. Prior to June 30, 2027, interest is paid quarterly at the U.S. prime rate as quoted in the Money Rates section of The Wall Street Journal, and the line of credit matures June 30, 2027. If a balance exists at July 1, 2027, the principal balance converts to a term facility payable quarterly over five years and interest is paid quarterly at the U.S. prime rate as quoted in the Money Rates section of The Wall Street Journal. The line of credit is unsecured. Among other provisions in the Loan Agreement, the Company must satisfy certain financial covenants during the term of the Loan Agreement, including without limitation, covenants that require the Company to maintain certain capital, profitability, loan loss reserve, non-performing asset and debt service coverage ratios. In addition, the credit agreement contains certain operational covenants, which among others, restricts the payment of dividends above 55% of consolidated net income, limits the incurrence of debt (excluding any amounts acquired in an acquisition) and prohibits the disposal of assets except in the ordinary course of business. Since 1995, we have historically declared dividends as a percentage of our consolidated net income in a range of 36% (low) in 2021 and 2020 to 53% (high) in 2003 and

2006. The Company was in compliance with the financial and operational covenants at September 30, 2026. There was no outstanding balance under the line of credit as of September 30, 2026.

In addition, we anticipate that future acquisitions of financial institutions, expansion of branch locations or offerings of new products could also place a demand on our cash resources. Available cash and cash equivalents at our parent company which totaled $171.4 million at September 30, 2026, investment securities which totaled $1.1 million at September 30, 2026 and mature over 3 to 4 years, available dividends from our subsidiaries which totaled $395.7 million at September 30, 2026, utilization of available lines of credit, and future debt or equity offerings are expected to be the source of funding for these potential acquisitions or expansions.

Our liquidity position is continuously monitored and adjustments are made to the balance between sources and uses of funds as deemed appropriate. Liquidity risk management is an important element in our asset/liability management process. We regularly model liquidity stress scenarios to assess potential liquidity outflows or funding problems resulting from economic disruptions, volatility in the financial markets, unexpected credit events or other significant occurrences deemed potentially problematic by management. These scenarios are incorporated into our contingency funding plan, which provides the basis for the identification of our liquidity needs. As of September 30, 2026, management is not aware of any events that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, capital resources or operations. We are monitoring closely the impact to the financial system due to the past failures of several banks. Given the diversified core deposit base and relatively low loan to deposit ratios maintained at our subsidiary bank, we consider our current liquidity position to be adequate to meet our short-term and long-term liquidity needs. In addition, management is not aware of any regulatory recommendations regarding liquidity that would have a material adverse effect on us.

Off-Balance Sheet (“OBS”)/Reserve for Unfunded Commitments. We are a party to financial instruments with OBS risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include unfunded lines of credit, commitments to extend credit and federal funds sold to correspondent banks and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in our consolidated balance sheets. At September 30, 2026, the Company’s reserve for unfunded commitments totaled $5.8 million which is recorded in other liabilities.

Our exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparty to the financial instrument for unfunded lines of credit, commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of these instruments. We generally use the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as we do for on-balance-sheet instruments.

Unfunded lines of credit and 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. These commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. We evaluate each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, as we deem necessary upon extension of credit, is based on our credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant, and equipment and income-producing commercial properties.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments we issue to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The average collateral value held on letters of credit usually exceeds the contract amount.

We believe we have no other OBS arrangements or transactions with unconsolidated, special purpose entities that would expose us to liability that is not reflected in the financial statements. The above table does not include balances related to the Company’s forward mortgage-backed security trades. At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, these credit exposures for mortgage loans sold with recourse approximated $31.6 million and $25.5 million, respectively. Total commercial commitments were approximately $1.8 billion at both September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Parent Company Funding. Our ability to fund various operating expenses, dividends, and cash acquisitions is generally dependent on our own earnings (without giving effect to our subsidiaries), cash reserves and funds derived from our subsidiaries. These funds historically have been produced by intercompany dividends and management fees that are limited to reimbursement of actual expenses. We anticipate that our recurring cash sources will continue to include dividends and management fees from our subsidiaries. At September 30, 2026, $395.7 million was available for the payment of intercompany dividends by our subsidiaries without the prior approval of regulatory agencies. Our subsidiaries paid aggregate dividends of $126.0 million and $106.2 million for the nine-months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Dividends. Our long-term dividend policy is to pay cash dividends to our shareholders of approximately 40% to 50% of annual net earnings while maintaining adequate capital to support growth. We are also restricted by a loan covenant within our line of credit agreement with Frost Bank to dividend no greater than 55% of net income, as defined in such loan agreement. The cash dividend payout ratios have amounted to 41.52% and 44.51% of net earnings for the first nine months of 2026 and 2025, respectively. Given our current capital position, projected earnings and asset growth rates, we do not anticipate any significant change in our current dividend policy.

To pay dividends, we and our subsidiary bank must maintain adequate capital above regulatory guidelines and comply with the general requirements applicable to a Texas corporation. Generally, a Texas corporation may not pay a dividend to its shareholders if (i) after giving effect to the dividend, the corporation would be insolvent, or (ii) the amount of the dividend would exceed the surplus of the corporation. In addition, if the applicable regulatory authority believes that a bank under its jurisdiction is engaged in or is about to engage in an unsafe or unsound practice (which, depending on the financial condition of the bank, could include the payment of dividends), the authority may require, after notice and hearing, that such bank cease and desist from the unsafe practice. As a member bank, First Financial Bank may not declare or pay a dividend if the total of all dividends declared during the calendar year, including the proposed dividend, exceeds the sum of the bank's net income (as reportable in its Reports of Condition and Income) during the current calendar year and the retained net income of the prior two calendar years, unless the dividend has been approved by the Federal Reserve Board.

The Federal Reserve Board, the FDIC, and the Texas Department of Banking have each indicated that paying dividends that deplete a bank’s capital base to an inadequate level would be an unsafe and unsound banking practice. The Federal Reserve Board, the Texas Department of Banking, and the FDIC expect that bank holding companies and insured banks should generally only pay dividends out of current operating earnings.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Management considers interest rate risk to be a significant market risk for the Company. See “Item 2—Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Interest Rate Risk” for disclosure regarding this market risk.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

As of September 30, 2026, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Our management, which includes our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud.

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded, based on our evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of September 30, 2026.

There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2026, that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
