[10-Q] First US Bancshares, Inc. Quarterly Earnings Report
FUSB’s Q2-25 results weakened materially. Net income dropped to $0.2 M ($0.03/sh) from $2.1 M ($0.36/sh) a year ago as the Bank booked a $2.7 M provision for credit losses versus none in Q2-24. Six-month earnings fell 54 % to $1.9 M ($0.33/sh).
Core spread revenue held steady. Net interest income rose 3 % YoY to $9.5 M, with average loan growth (+6 % YTD to $871 M) offsetting a still-elevated funding cost (deposit interest expense $5.1 M, –2 %). After the provision, pre-tax income shrank 94 % to $0.2 M. Non-interest income was flat at $0.8 M; expenses lifted 2 % to $7.4 M.
Balance-sheet trends. Assets expanded 3.8 % since year-end to $1.14 B, funded partly by higher short-term borrowings ($35 M vs $10 M) and a 1.5 % rise in deposits. The allowance for credit losses increased 12 % to $11.4 M (1.31 % of loans). AOCI improved $2.3 M on unrealized securities gains, boosting tangible equity to $101.9 M (8.9 % of assets). Cash & equivalents grew to $54 M.
Capital & shareholder returns. The Board raised the quarterly dividend to $0.07 (vs $0.05) and repurchased 40 k shares. Common shares outstanding total 5.76 M.
Key takeaways: strong loan momentum and easing securities losses were overshadowed by a sharp earnings contraction driven by higher credit provisioning and modest expense creep, highlighting asset-quality headwinds and funding pressure.
I risultati di FUSB nel secondo trimestre 2025 si sono indeboliti significativamente. L'utile netto è sceso a 0,2 milioni di dollari (0,03 $/azione) rispetto a 2,1 milioni di dollari (0,36 $/azione) dell'anno precedente, a causa di una accantonamento per perdite su crediti di 2,7 milioni di dollari, assente nel Q2-24. Gli utili semestrali sono diminuiti del 54% a 1,9 milioni di dollari (0,33 $/azione).
I ricavi da spread core sono rimasti stabili. Il reddito netto da interessi è aumentato del 3% su base annua, raggiungendo 9,5 milioni di dollari, grazie a una crescita media dei prestiti (+6% da inizio anno a 871 milioni di dollari) che ha compensato il costo del funding ancora elevato (interessi sui depositi pari a 5,1 milioni di dollari, -2%). Dopo l'accantonamento, il reddito ante imposte è diminuito del 94% a 0,2 milioni di dollari. Il reddito non da interessi è rimasto stabile a 0,8 milioni di dollari; le spese sono aumentate del 2% a 7,4 milioni di dollari.
Andamento del bilancio. Gli attivi sono cresciuti del 3,8% rispetto a fine anno, raggiungendo 1,14 miliardi di dollari, finanziati in parte da un aumento dell'indebitamento a breve termine (35 milioni contro 10 milioni) e da un incremento dell'1,5% dei depositi. L'accantonamento per perdite su crediti è aumentato del 12%, arrivando a 11,4 milioni di dollari (1,31% dei prestiti). L'AOCI è migliorato di 2,3 milioni grazie a guadagni non realizzati su titoli, portando il patrimonio tangibile a 101,9 milioni di dollari (8,9% degli attivi). La liquidità e equivalenti sono saliti a 54 milioni di dollari.
Capitale e ritorni per gli azionisti. Il Consiglio di Amministrazione ha aumentato il dividendo trimestrale a 0,07 dollari (da 0,05) e ha riacquistato 40 mila azioni. Le azioni ordinarie in circolazione sono 5,76 milioni.
Punti chiave: un forte slancio nei prestiti e un alleggerimento delle perdite su titoli sono stati però offuscati da un netto calo degli utili, dovuto a maggiori accantonamenti per crediti e a un modesto aumento delle spese, evidenziando difficoltà nella qualità degli attivi e pressioni sul funding.
Los resultados de FUSB en el segundo trimestre de 2025 se debilitaron considerablemente. La utilidad neta cayó a 0,2 millones de dólares (0,03 $/acción) desde 2,1 millones (0,36 $/acción) del año anterior, debido a una provisión para pérdidas crediticias de 2,7 millones de dólares, inexistente en el Q2-24. Las ganancias semestrales bajaron un 54 % a 1,9 millones de dólares (0,33 $/acción).
Los ingresos por margen básico se mantuvieron estables. Los ingresos netos por intereses aumentaron un 3 % interanual hasta 9,5 millones de dólares, con un crecimiento promedio de préstamos (+6 % en el año hasta 871 millones de dólares) que compensó el costo de financiamiento aún elevado (gastos por intereses de depósitos de 5,1 millones, -2 %). Tras la provisión, el ingreso antes de impuestos se redujo un 94 % a 0,2 millones. Los ingresos no por intereses se mantuvieron planos en 0,8 millones; los gastos aumentaron un 2 % a 7,4 millones.
Tendencias del balance. Los activos crecieron un 3,8 % desde fin de año hasta 1.140 millones de dólares, financiados en parte por un mayor endeudamiento a corto plazo (35 millones frente a 10 millones) y un aumento del 1,5 % en depósitos. La provisión para pérdidas crediticias aumentó un 12 % hasta 11,4 millones (1,31 % de los préstamos). El AOCI mejoró 2,3 millones por ganancias no realizadas en valores, aumentando el capital tangible a 101,9 millones (8,9 % de los activos). El efectivo y equivalentes crecieron a 54 millones.
Capital y retornos para accionistas. La Junta aumentó el dividendo trimestral a 0,07 dólares (desde 0,05) y recompró 40 mil acciones. Las acciones comunes en circulación suman 5,76 millones.
Puntos clave: el fuerte impulso en préstamos y la reducción de pérdidas en valores fueron opacados por una fuerte contracción de ganancias impulsada por mayores provisiones crediticias y un ligero aumento de gastos, destacando vientos en contra en la calidad de activos y presión en el financiamiento.
FUSB의 2025년 2분기 실적이 크게 약화되었습니다. 순이익은 0.2백만 달러(주당 0.03달러)로 전년 동기 2.1백만 달러(주당 0.36달러)에서 크게 감소했으며, 은행은 2024년 2분기에는 없었던 2.7백만 달러의 대손충당금을 설정했습니다. 6개월 누적 순이익은 54% 감소한 1.9백만 달러(주당 0.33달러)를 기록했습니다.
핵심 스프레드 수익은 안정적이었습니다. 순이자수익은 전년 대비 3% 증가한 9.5백만 달러로, 평균 대출이 6% 성장하여 8억 7,100만 달러에 달했으며, 여전히 높은 자금조달 비용(예금 이자 비용 5.1백만 달러, -2%)을 상쇄했습니다. 대손충당금 반영 후 세전 이익은 94% 감소한 0.2백만 달러에 그쳤습니다. 비이자수익은 0.8백만 달러로 변동이 없었고, 비용은 2% 증가한 7.4백만 달러였습니다.
대차대조표 동향. 자산은 연초 대비 3.8% 증가한 11억 4천만 달러로, 단기 차입금 증가(3,500만 달러 대 1,000만 달러)와 1.5% 증가한 예금으로 일부 자금을 조달했습니다. 대손충당금은 12% 증가한 1,140만 달러(대출의 1.31%)에 달했습니다. 미실현 증권 이익으로 인해 기타포괄손익누계액(AOCI)이 230만 달러 개선되어 유형자본이 1억 190만 달러(자산의 8.9%)로 증가했습니다. 현금 및 현금성 자산은 5,400만 달러로 늘었습니다.
자본 및 주주 환원. 이사회는 분기 배당금을 0.07달러(기존 0.05달러)로 인상하고 4만 주를 자사주로 매입했습니다. 보통주는 총 576만 주입니다.
주요 시사점: 강한 대출 성장과 증권 손실 완화에도 불구하고, 대손충당금 증가와 경비 소폭 상승으로 인한 급격한 이익 감소가 자산 품질 악화와 자금 조달 압박을 부각시켰습니다.
Les résultats de FUSB au deuxième trimestre 2025 se sont nettement détériorés. Le bénéfice net est tombé à 0,2 million de dollars (0,03 $/action) contre 2,1 millions (0,36 $/action) un an plus tôt, la banque ayant enregistré une provision pour pertes sur crédits de 2,7 millions de dollars, alors qu’il n’y en avait aucune au T2-24. Le bénéfice semestriel a chuté de 54 % à 1,9 million (0,33 $/action).
Les revenus d’intérêts fondamentaux sont restés stables. Le produit net d’intérêts a augmenté de 3 % en glissement annuel pour atteindre 9,5 millions de dollars, la croissance moyenne des prêts (+6 % depuis le début de l’année à 871 millions) compensant un coût de financement encore élevé (charges d’intérêts sur dépôts de 5,1 millions, -2 %). Après la provision, le résultat avant impôts a chuté de 94 % à 0,2 million. Les revenus hors intérêts sont restés stables à 0,8 million ; les charges ont augmenté de 2 % à 7,4 millions.
Évolution du bilan. Les actifs ont augmenté de 3,8 % depuis la fin de l’année pour atteindre 1,14 milliard, financés en partie par une hausse des emprunts à court terme (35 millions contre 10 millions) et une progression de 1,5 % des dépôts. La provision pour pertes sur crédits a augmenté de 12 % pour atteindre 11,4 millions (1,31 % des prêts). Les autres éléments du résultat global (AOCI) se sont améliorés de 2,3 millions grâce à des gains latents sur titres, faisant passer les fonds propres tangibles à 101,9 millions (8,9 % des actifs). La trésorerie et équivalents ont progressé à 54 millions.
Capital et retours aux actionnaires. Le conseil d’administration a relevé le dividende trimestriel à 0,07 $ (contre 0,05 $) et racheté 40 000 actions. Le nombre d’actions ordinaires en circulation est de 5,76 millions.
Points clés : un fort dynamisme des prêts et une réduction des pertes sur titres ont été éclipsés par une forte contraction des bénéfices, due à une augmentation des provisions pour créances douteuses et à une légère hausse des charges, mettant en lumière des vents contraires sur la qualité des actifs et une pression sur le financement.
FUSBs Ergebnisse für das zweite Quartal 2025 haben sich deutlich verschlechtert. Der Nettogewinn sank auf 0,2 Mio. USD (0,03 USD/Aktie) von 2,1 Mio. USD (0,36 USD/Aktie) im Vorjahr, da die Bank eine Rückstellung für Kreditausfälle in Höhe von 2,7 Mio. USD bildete, während im Q2-24 keine Rückstellung erforderlich war. Der Gewinn für sechs Monate fiel um 54 % auf 1,9 Mio. USD (0,33 USD/Aktie).
Der Kernzinsüberschuss blieb stabil. Der Nettozinsertrag stieg im Jahresvergleich um 3 % auf 9,5 Mio. USD, wobei das durchschnittliche Kreditwachstum (+6 % seit Jahresbeginn auf 871 Mio. USD) die weiterhin hohen Finanzierungskosten (Zinsaufwand für Einlagen 5,1 Mio. USD, -2 %) ausglich. Nach der Rückstellung schrumpfte das Ergebnis vor Steuern um 94 % auf 0,2 Mio. USD. Die Erträge aus nicht-zinsbezogenen Geschäften blieben mit 0,8 Mio. USD unverändert; die Aufwendungen stiegen um 2 % auf 7,4 Mio. USD.
Bilanztrends. Die Aktiva wuchsen seit Jahresbeginn um 3,8 % auf 1,14 Mrd. USD, teilweise finanziert durch höhere kurzfristige Verbindlichkeiten (35 Mio. USD vs. 10 Mio. USD) und einen Anstieg der Einlagen um 1,5 %. Die Rückstellung für Kreditausfälle stieg um 12 % auf 11,4 Mio. USD (1,31 % der Kredite). Das sonstige Ergebnis aus der Neubewertung (AOCI) verbesserte sich um 2,3 Mio. USD durch nicht realisierte Wertpapiergewinne, was das materielle Eigenkapital auf 101,9 Mio. USD (8,9 % der Aktiva) hob. Kassenbestände und Zahlungsmitteläquivalente stiegen auf 54 Mio. USD.
Kapital & Aktionärsrenditen. Der Vorstand erhöhte die Quartalsdividende auf 0,07 USD (vorher 0,05 USD) und kaufte 40.000 Aktien zurück. Die ausstehenden Stammaktien belaufen sich auf 5,76 Mio.
Wesentliche Erkenntnisse: Starkes Kreditwachstum und nachlassende Wertpapierverluste wurden jedoch von einem starken Gewinnrückgang überschattet, der durch höhere Kreditrückstellungen und einen moderaten Kostenanstieg verursacht wurde. Dies unterstreicht Herausforderungen bei der Vermögensqualität und Druck bei der Finanzierung.
- Loan portfolio grew 5.9 % YTD, led by indirect consumer and multifamily assets, supporting net interest income.
- AOCI improved $2.3 M, cutting accumulated other comprehensive loss by 52 % and strengthening tangible equity.
- Quarterly dividend raised to $0.07, signaling management’s capital confidence despite softer earnings.
- Net income plunged 93 % YoY to $0.2 M; EPS down to $0.03.
- $2.7 M credit-loss provision vs zero last year points to deteriorating asset quality.
- Short-term borrowings tripled to $35 M, indicating funding pressure.
- Operating expenses grew while revenue was flat, compressing efficiency.
Insights
TL;DR: Earnings collapse as credit costs surge; loan growth and AOCI relief soften blow.
Quarterly profitability deteriorated sharply: ROA fell to 0.05 % (vs 0.78 %), driven by a $2.7 M provision that lifted the reserve to 1.31 % of loans. While loan balances rose 6 % YTD—chiefly in indirect consumer (+21 %) and multifamily CRE (+18 %)—funding mix weakened: non-interest deposits slid 3 % and short-term FHLB advances jumped to $35 M. Net interest income was resilient, but operating leverage stayed negative. Equity benefited from securities-portfolio mark-to-market gains, partially mitigating unrealized losses. Dividend hike signals confidence, yet coverage is thin (earn-out ratio 233 %). Overall, results skew negative for valuation; impact: moderate.
TL;DR: Provision spike hints at emerging asset-quality stress, but reserve build prudent.
Management increased ACL by 12 % after loan growth and early risk signals. Critically, indirect consumer and CRE concentrations now exceed 60 % of loans. Non-performing metrics are not disclosed here, but proactive reserving—provision equals 24 bps of total loans—suggests rising delinquencies. Funding reliance on higher-cost deposits and FHLB borrowings could pressure margins if credit trends worsen. Capital remains adequate (≈9 % Leverage), giving cushion. From a risk standpoint, the move is protective; outlook neutral to slightly negative.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). In addition, First US Bancshares, Inc. (“Bancshares” and, together with its subsidiary, the “Company”), through its senior management, from time to time makes forward-looking statements concerning its expected future operations, performance and other developments. The words “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “believe,” “continues” and similar expressions are indicative of forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements are necessarily estimates reflecting the Company’s best judgment based on current information and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Certain factors that could affect the accuracy of such forward-looking statements and cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in such forward-looking statements are identified in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and forward-looking statements contained herein or in other public statements of the Company or its senior management should be considered in light of those factors. Such factors may include adverse developments in the financial services industry; the effects of any government shutdown; loan losses may be greater than anticipated; our ability to ensure that sufficient cash flow and liquid assets are available to satisfy current and future financial obligations; the increased lending risks associated with commercial real estate lending; potential weakness in the residential real estate market; liquidity risks; the impact of national and local market conditions on the Company’s business and operations; the effects of significant changes to the structure and operations of the federal government; strong competition in the banking industry; the impact of changes in interest rates and monetary policy on the Company’s performance and financial condition; the effects of fiscal challenges facing the U.S. government or any potential government shutdown; the impact of technological changes in the banking and financial service industries and potential information system failures; cybersecurity and data privacy threats; the risks and challenges presented by the development and use of artificial intelligence (“AI”); the costs of complying with extensive governmental regulation; the risk that internal controls and procedures might fail or be circumvented; the impact of changing accounting standards and tax laws on the Company’s financial results; the potential impact of climate change and related legislative and regulatory initiatives; the possibility that acquisitions may not produce anticipated results and result in unforeseen integration difficulties; the volatility of our stock price and our dependence on the soundness of other financial institutions; and other risk factors described from time to time in the Company’s public filings, including, but not limited to, the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. Relative to the Company’s dividend policy, the payment of cash dividends is subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors and will be determined in light of then-current conditions, including the Company’s earnings, leverage, operations, financial conditions, capital requirements and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors. In the future, the Board of Directors may change the Company’s dividend policy, including the frequency or amount of any dividend, in light of then-existing conditions.

FIRST US BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
First US Bancshares, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Bancshares” and, together with its subsidiary, the “Company”), is a bank holding company formed in 1983 registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHCA”). Bancshares operates one wholly owned banking subsidiary, First US Bank, an Alabama banking corporation (the “Bank”). Bancshares and the Bank are headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama.

The Bank also performs indirect lending through third-party retailers and currently conducts this lending in
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2025. While certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), management believes that the disclosures herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the "Company's 2024 Form 10-K").
Reclassification
Certain amounts in the prior period consolidated financial statements and the notes to the prior period consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2025 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or net cash flow.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Certain significant accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K.
Net Income Per Share
Basic net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding ("basic shares"). Included in basic shares are stock equivalent shares that have been accrued as of the balance sheet date as deferred compensation for members of Bancshares’ Board of Directors under the Non-Employee Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan (as defined below and discussed further in Note 9). Diluted net income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, adjusted for the effect of potentially dilutive stock awards outstanding during the period ("dilutive shares"). The dilutive shares consist of unexercised nonqualified stock options granted to employees and members of Bancshares’ Board of Directors pursuant to the Company's Incentive Plan (as defined below and discussed further in Note 10).

The following table reflects the weighted average shares used to calculate basic and diluted net income per share for the periods presented.

Comprehensive Income
Comprehensive income consists of net income, as well as unrealized holding gains and losses that arise during the period associated with the Company’s available-for-sale securities portfolio and the effective portion of cash flow hedge derivatives. In the calculation of comprehensive income, reclassification adjustments are made for gains or losses realized in the statement of operations associated with the sale of available-for-sale securities or settlement of derivative contracts.

For purposes of the maturity table, mortgage-backed securities, which are not due at a single maturity date, have been allocated over maturity groupings based on the weighted-average contractual maturities of underlying collateral. The mortgage-backed securities generally mature earlier than their weighted-average contractual maturities because of principal prepayments.
The following tables reflect fair value and gross unrealized losses, aggregated by investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position, as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Available-for-Sale Considerations
For any securities classified as available-for-sale that are in an unrealized loss position as of the balance sheet date, the Company assesses whether or not it intends to sell the security, or more-likely-than-not will be required to sell the security, before recovery of its amortized cost basis which would require a write-down to fair value through net income.
As of June 30, 2025,
Held-to-Maturity Considerations
Each quarter, management evaluates the held-to-maturity investment portfolio on a collective basis by major security type to determine whether an ACL is needed. Qualitative factors are used in the Company’s credit loss assessments, including current and forecasted economic conditions, the characteristics of the debt issuer, and the historic ability of the issuer to make contractual principal and interest payments. Specifically, with regard to mortgage-backed securities or obligations of U.S. government sponsored agencies thereof, it is expected that the securities will not be settled at prices less than the amortized cost bases of the securities as such securities are either backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government or the agency. With regard to obligations of states and political subdivisions, management considers issuer bond ratings, historical loss rates for given bond ratings, and whether the issuers continue to make timely principal and interest payments under contractual terms of the securities. Based on these evaluations,

Portfolio Segments
The Company has divided the loan portfolio into the following portfolio segments based on risk characteristics:
Construction, land development and other land loans – Commercial construction, land and land development loans include loans for the development of residential housing projects, loans for the development of commercial and industrial use property, loans for the purchase and improvement of raw land and loans primarily for agricultural production that are secured by farmland. These loans are secured in whole or in part by the underlying real estate collateral and are generally guaranteed by the principals of the borrowing entity.
Secured by 1-4 family residential properties – These loans include conventional mortgage loans on one-to-four family residential properties. These properties may serve as the borrower’s primary residence, vacation home or investment property. Also included in this portfolio are home equity loans and lines of credit. This type of lending, which is secured by a first or second mortgage on the borrower’s residence, allows customers to borrow against the equity in their home.
Secured by multi-family residential properties – This portfolio segment includes mortgage loans secured by apartment buildings.
Secured by non-residential commercial real estate – This portfolio segment includes real estate loans secured by commercial and industrial properties, office or mixed-use facilities, strip shopping centers or other commercial property. These loans are generally guaranteed by the principals of the borrowing entity.
Commercial and industrial loans and leases – This portfolio segment includes loans and leases to commercial customers for use in the normal course of business. These credits may be loans, lines of credit and leases to financially strong borrowers, secured by inventories, equipment or receivables, and are generally guaranteed by the principals of the borrowing entity.
Direct consumer – This portfolio segment includes a variety of secured and unsecured personal loans, including automobile loans, loans for household and personal purposes and all other direct consumer installment loans.
Indirect consumer – This portfolio segment includes loans secured by collateral purchased by consumers at retail stores with whom the Company has an established relationship to provide financing for the retail products sold if applicable underwriting standards are met. The collateral securing these loans primarily includes boats, recreational vehicles/campers, horse trailers and cargo trailers.
As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the composition of the loan portfolio by portfolio segment was as follows:

Related Party Loans
In the ordinary course of business, the Bank makes loans to certain officers and directors of the Company, including companies with which they are associated. These loans are made on the same terms as those prevailing for comparable transactions with unrelated parties. Management believes that such loans do not represent more than a normal risk of collectability, nor do they present other unfavorable features. The aggregate balances of such related party loans and commitments were $
Allowance for Credit Losses
Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans and Leases
The Company records the ACL on loans and leases as a contra-asset valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans and leases held for investment. Loans are charged off against the ACL when management believes that the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Recoveries of previously charged off loans are also recorded to the ACL when collected. As of each quarter-end date, the Company evaluates the appropriateness of the ACL on loans and leases and adjusts the ACL through the provision for (recovery of) credit losses.
Determining the appropriateness of the ACL on loans and leases is complex and requires judgment by management about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. The level of the ACL is influenced by loan and lease volumes and mix, historical credit loss experience, estimated remaining life of portfolio segments, asset quality characteristics, delinquency status, and other conditions including reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions and qualitative adjustment factors based on management’s understanding of various attributes that could impact life-of-loan losses as of the balance sheet date. The methodology to estimate losses includes two basic components: (1) an asset-specific component for individual loans that do not share similar risk characteristics with other loans, and (2) a pooled component for estimated expected credit losses for loans that share similar risk characteristics.
Loans that do not share risk characteristics with other loans are evaluated on an individual basis. The process for determining whether a loan should be evaluated on an individual basis begins with a determination of credit rating. All loans graded by management as substandard or worse with a total commitment of $
For estimating the component of the ACL that shares similar risk characteristics, loans are segregated into pooled loan categories that share risk characteristics. Loans are designated into pooled categories based on product types, business lines, collateral, and other risk characteristics. For all pooled loan categories, the Company uses a loss-rate methodology to calculate estimated life-of-loan and lease credit losses. This methodology focuses on historical credit loss rates applied over the estimated weighted average remaining life of each loan pool, adjusted by qualitative factors, to estimate life-of-loan losses for each pool. The qualitative factors utilized include, among others, reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic data, including inflation and unemployment levels, as well as interest rates.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Unfunded Lending Commitments
The Company records an ACL on unfunded lending commitments in which the Company is exposed to credit risk via a present contractual obligation to extend credit unless the obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. Unconditional lending commitments generally include unfunded term loan agreements, home equity lines of credit, lines of credit, and demand deposit account overdraft protection.
As of each quarter-end date, the Company estimates expected credit losses on unfunded lending commitments over the contractual period in which the Company is exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The ACL on unfunded lending commitments is recorded in other liabilities, and adjustments to the ACL are recorded through the provision for (recovery of) credit losses.

Credit Quality Indicators
The Company utilizes a credit grading system that provides a uniform framework for establishing and monitoring credit risk in the loan portfolio. Under this system, construction, land, multi-family real estate, other commercial real estate, and commercial and industrial loans are graded based on pre-determined risk metrics and categorized into one of nine risk grades. These risk grades can be summarized into categories described as pass, special mention, substandard, doubtful and loss, as described in further detail below.
Because residential real estate and consumer loans are more uniform in nature, each loan is categorized into one of two risk grades, depending on whether the loan is considered to be performing or nonperforming. Performing loans are loans that are paying principal and interest in accordance with a contractual agreement. Nonperforming loans are loans that have demonstrated characteristics that indicate a probability of loss.

The tables below illustrate the carrying amount of loans and leases by credit quality indicator and year of origination as of June 30, 2025, as well as gross charge-offs for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Loan Modifications Made to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
From time to time, the Company may modify the terms of loan agreements with borrowers that are experiencing financial difficulties. Modification of the terms of such loans typically include one or a combination of the following: a reduction of the stated interest rate of the loan; an extension of the maturity date at a stated rate of interest lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk; or a permanent reduction of the recorded investment in the loan. No modifications in 2025 or 2024 resulted in the permanent reduction of the recorded investment in the loan.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company did not modify any loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, and there were no payment defaults on loans that were modified in the previous twelve months.

As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s estimated remaining amortization expense on intangible assets was $
The net carrying amount of the Company’s core deposit premiums is not considered recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from use and eventual disposition. That assessment is based on the carrying amount of the intangible assets subject to amortization at the date on which it is tested for recoverability. Intangible assets subject to amortization are tested by the Company for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable.

The Company may use FHLB advances with original maturities of more than one year as an alternative to funding sources with similar maturities, such as certificates of deposit or other deposit programs. These advances generally offer more attractive rates than other mid-term financing options. They are also flexible, allowing the Company to quickly obtain the necessary maturities and rates that best suit its overall asset/liability strategy. FHLB advances with an original maturity of more than one year are classified as long-term. As of both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company did

The provision for income taxes was $

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) was signed into law. The OBBBA extends or makes permanent a number of provisions originally enacted in the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and introduces new items affecting both individuals and businesses. Topic 740, Income Taxes, of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification requires the effects of newly enacted tax law to be recognized in the period of enactment. Because enactment occurred after the quarter-end date of June 30, 2025, we are evaluating the OBBBA’s impact on our deferred tax assets and liabilities, effective tax rate, and tax-related processes (e.g., payroll reporting for qualifying wage items). Based on preliminary analysis, we do not currently expect the OBBBA to have a material impact on our 2025 estimated annual effective tax rate or on our consolidated financial statements, but our evaluation is ongoing.
Supplemental Retirement Benefits
The Company has entered into supplemental retirement compensation benefits agreements with certain non-employee directors and former executive officers. These agreements are structured as nonqualified retirement plans for federal income tax purposes. The Company’s obligation under these agreements is accrued as deferred compensation in accordance with the terms of the individual contracts over the required service period to the date the employee is eligible to receive benefits. The Company’s deferred compensation obligation under these agreements totaled $
Non-Employee Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan
Non-employee directors may elect to defer payment of all or any portion of their director fees under Bancshares’ Non-Employee Directors’ Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Deferral Plan”). The Deferral Plan permits non-employee directors to invest their directors’ fees and to receive the adjusted value of the deferred amounts in cash and/or shares of Bancshares’ common stock, as applicable. Neither Bancshares nor the Bank makes any contribution to participants’ accounts under the Deferral Plan. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, a total of
27
classifies all deferred directors’ fees allocated to be paid in shares as equity as additional paid-in capital. The Company may use issued shares or shares of treasury stock to satisfy these obligations when due.
In 2013, Bancshares’ shareholders authorized the Company to provide share-based compensation awards to eligible employees, directors and consultants of the Company and its affiliates pursuant to the 2013 Incentive Plan. Available award types included stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units, and performance share awards. The 2013 Incentive Plan, as amended in 2019, expired in March 2023. In April 2023, Bancshares’ shareholders approved the 2023 Incentive Plan, which authorizes the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors to grant substantially the same types of share-based awards to eligible employees, directors and consultants. Collectively, the 2013 Incentive Plan and the 2023 Incentive Plan are herein referred to as the Company’s “Incentive Plan.” In accordance with the Incentive Plan, shares of common stock available for issuance pursuant to the grants may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares, treasury shares or shares reacquired by the Company in any manner. Since the origination of the Incentive Plan, through June 30, 2025, only stock options and restricted stock have been granted. Stock-based compensation expense related to stock awards totaled $
Stock Options
Stock options have been granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock on the date of the grant and have vesting periods ranging from one to

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company manages its exposures to business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk, primarily by managing the amounts, sources, and duration of assets and liabilities. The Company uses interest rate derivative instruments to minimize unplanned fluctuations in earnings and cash flows caused by interest rate volatility. The Company’s interest rate risk management strategy generally involves modifying the repricing characteristics of certain assets and liabilities to mitigate negative impacts on net interest margin and/or cash flow. Interest rate derivative instruments utilized by the Company generally include interest rate swap contracts or option contracts, such as caps and floors. The Company’s existing credit derivatives are associated with loan participation arrangements, and are not used to manage interest rate risk in the Company’s assets or liabilities. The fair values of derivative instruments are carried in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets as assets and/or liabilities. The Company does not use derivatives for speculative purposes and generally enters into transactions that have a qualifying hedge relationship. When hedge accounting is used, derivatives are classified as either cash flow hedges or fair value hedges. The Company may also enter into derivative contracts that are not designated as hedges in order to mitigate economic risks or risks associated with volatility in connection with customer derivative transactions.

Credit
The Bank’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party for commitments to make loans and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Bank uses the same credit policies in making these commitments as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.
In the normal course of business, there are outstanding commitments and contingent liabilities, such as commitments to extend credit, letters of credit and others, that are not included in the consolidated financial statements. The financial instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of amounts recognized in the financial statements.

|
Standby letters of credit and standby performance letters of credit are contingent commitments issued by the Bank generally to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The Bank has recourse against the customer for any amount that it is required to pay to a third party under a standby letter of credit or standby performance letter of credit. Revenues are recognized over the lives of the standby letters of credit and standby performance letters of credit. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the potential amounts of future payments that the Bank could be required to make under its standby letters of credit and standby performance letters of credit, which represent the Bank’s total credit risk in these categories, are included in the table above.
A commitment to extend credit is an agreement to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Bank evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Bank upon the extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment and income-producing commercial properties.
At each quarter end date, the Company calculates an allowance for unfunded lending commitments, including those described in the table above. The Company's allowance for unfunded commitments totaled $
Self-Insurance
The Company is self-insured for a significant portion of employee health benefits. However, the Company maintains stop-loss coverage with third-party insurers to limit the Company’s individual claim and total exposure related to self-insurance. The Company estimates a liability for the ultimate costs to settle known claims, as well as claims incurred but not yet reported, as of the balance sheet date. The Company’s recorded estimated liability for self-insurance is based on the insurance companies' incurred loss estimates and management’s judgment, including assumptions and evaluation of factors related to the frequency and severity of claims, the Company’s claims development history and the Company’s claims settlement practices. The assessment of loss contingencies and self-insurance reserves is a highly subjective process that requires judgments about future events. Contingencies are reviewed at least quarterly to determine the adequacy of self-insurance accruals. Self-insurance accruals totaled $
Litigation
The Company is party to certain ordinary course litigation, and intends to vigorously defend itself in all such litigation. In the opinion of the Company, based on review and consultation with legal counsel, the outcome of such ordinary course litigation should not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements or results of operations.
33
The Company follows a uniform framework for estimating and classifying the fair value of financial instruments. The assumptions used in the estimation of the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments are detailed below. The following disclosures should not be considered a representation of the liquidation value of the Company, but rather represent a good-faith estimate of the increase or decrease in value of financial instruments held by the Company since purchase, origination or issuance.
Fair Value Hierarchy
Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants at the measurement date. In determining fair value, the Company uses various methods, including market, income and cost approaches. Based on these approaches, the Company often utilizes certain assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk and/or the risks inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. These inputs can be readily observable, market-corroborated or generally unobservable inputs. The Company utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Based on the observability of the inputs used in the valuation techniques, the Company is required to provide the following information according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair value. Assets and liabilities carried at fair value will be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
The Company rarely transfers assets and liabilities measured at fair value between Level 1 and Level 2 measurements. Trading account assets and securities available-for-sale may be periodically transferred to or from Level 3 valuation based on management’s conclusion regarding the best method of pricing for an individual security. Such transfers are accounted for as if they occurred at the beginning of a reporting period. There were
Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis
Securities Available-for-Sale
Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. Level 1 securities include U.S. Treasury securities. Level 2 securities include government sponsored agency securities, mortgage-backed agency securities, obligations of states and political subdivisions and certain corporate, asset-backed and other securities. Level 2 fair values are obtained from quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics. In certain cases, where Level 1 or Level 2 inputs are not available, securities are classified within Level 3 of the hierarchy.
Derivative Agreements
Derivative agreements include those used by the Company to mitigate risk associated with changes in interest rates, as well as credit derivatives associated with risk participation agreements in certain loans. The fair value of these agreements is based on information obtained from third-party financial institutions. This information is periodically evaluated by the Company and, as necessary, corroborated against other third-party valuations. The Company classifies these derivative assets within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.

Fair Value Measurements on a Non-recurring Basis
Collateral Dependent Loans
Loans are considered collateral dependent when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all principal and interest payments due under the contractual terms of the loan agreement. These loans are evaluated separately in accordance with the Company’s policies for calculating the ACL on loans and leases. The fair value of collateral dependent loans with specific allocations of the ACL on loans and leases is typically 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 independent appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Appraised values are discounted by management for estimated costs to sell and may be discounted further based on management’s knowledge of the collateral, changes in market conditions since the most recent appraisal and/or management’s knowledge of the borrower and the borrower’s
35
business. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge of the borrower’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Collateral dependent loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis and adjusted accordingly.
OREO and Other Assets Held-for-Sale
OREO consists of properties obtained through foreclosure or in satisfaction of loans and is recorded at net realizable value, less estimated cost to sell. Estimates of fair value are generally based on third-party appraisals of the property and are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The appraisals are sometimes discounted based on management’s knowledge of the property and/or changes in market conditions from the date of the most recent appraisal. Such discounts are typically significant unobservable inputs for determining fair value.
As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, included within OREO were certain assets that were formerly included as premises and equipment but have been removed from service, and as of the balance sheet date, were designated as assets to be disposed of by sale. These include assets associated with branches of the Company that have been closed. When an asset is designated as held-for-sale, the Company ceases depreciation of the asset, and the asset is recorded at the lower of its carrying amount or fair value less estimated cost to sell. Estimates of fair value are generally based on third-party appraisals of the property and are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The appraisals are sometimes discounted based on management’s knowledge of the property and/or changes in market conditions from the date of the most recent appraisal. Such discounts are typically unobservable inputs for determining fair value.
The following table presents the balances of collateral dependent loans, OREO and other assets held-for-sale measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

Collateral Dependent Loans
Collateral dependent loans are valued based on multiple data points indicating the fair value for each loan. The primary data point is the appraisal value of the underlying collateral, to which a discount is applied. Management establishes this discount or comparability adjustment
37
based on recent sales of similar property types. As liquidity in the market increases or decreases, the comparability adjustment and the resulting asset valuation are impacted.
OREO
OREO under a binding contract for sale is valued based on contract price. If no sales contract is pending for a specific property, management establishes a comparability adjustment to the appraised value based on historical activity, considering proceeds for properties sold versus the corresponding appraised value. Increases or decreases in realization for properties sold impact the comparability adjustment for similar assets remaining on the balance sheet.
Other Assets Held-for-Sale
Assets designated as held-for-sale that are under a binding contract are valued based on the contract price. If no sales contract is pending for a specific property, management establishes a comparability adjustment to the appraised value based on historical activity, considering proceeds for properties sold versus the corresponding appraised value. Increases or decreases in realization for properties sold impact the comparability adjustment for similar assets remaining on the balance sheet.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments:
Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value.
Federal funds sold and securities purchased under reverse repurchase agreements: Federal funds sold and securities purchased under reverse repurchase agreements all contain maturities of
Federal Home Loan Bank stock: Based on the redemption provision of the FHLB, the stock has no quoted market value and is carried at cost.
Investment securities: Fair values of investment securities are based on quoted market prices where available. If quoted market prices are not available, estimated fair values are based on market prices of comparable instruments.
Derivative instruments: The fair value of derivative instruments is based on information obtained from a third-party financial institution. This information is periodically evaluated by the Company and, as necessary, corroborated against other third-party information.
Accrued interest receivable and payable: The carrying amount of accrued interest approximates fair value.
Loans, net: The fair value of loans is estimated on an exit price basis incorporating contractual cash flow, prepayment discount spreads, credit loss and liquidity premiums.
Demand and savings deposits: The fair values of demand deposits are equal to the carrying value of such deposits. Demand deposits include non-interest-bearing demand deposits, savings accounts, NOW accounts and money market demand accounts.
Time deposits: The fair values of relatively short-term time deposits are equal to their carrying values. Discounted cash flows are used to value long-term time deposits. The discount rate used is based on interest rates currently offered by the Company on comparable deposits as to amount and term.
Short-term borrowings: These borrowings may consist of federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and the floating rate borrowings from the FHLB account. Due to the short-term nature of these borrowings, fair values approximate carrying values.
Long-term debt: The fair value of this debt is estimated using discounted cash flows based on the Company’s current incremental borrowing rate for similar types of borrowing arrangements as of the determination date.
Off-balance sheet instruments: The carrying amount of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit approximates fair value. The carrying amount of the off-balance sheet financial instruments is based on fees currently charged to enter into such agreements.
38
The estimated fair value and related carrying or notional amounts, as well as the level within the fair value hierarchy, of the Company’s financial instruments as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were as follows:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS
First US Bancshares, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Bancshares” and, together with its subsidiary, the “Company”), is a bank holding company formed in 1983 registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (the “BHCA”). Bancshares operates one wholly owned banking subsidiary, First US Bank, an Alabama banking corporation (the “Bank”). Bancshares and the Bank are headquartered in Birmingham, Alabama.
The Bank conducts a general commercial banking business and offers banking services such as demand, savings, individual retirement account and time deposits, personal and commercial loans, safe deposit box services and remote deposit capture. The Bank operates and serves its customers through 15 full-service banking offices located in Birmingham, Butler, Calera, Centreville, Gilbertown, Grove Hill, Harpersville, Jackson, Thomasville, Tuscaloosa and Woodstock, Alabama; Knoxville and Powell, Tennessee; and Rose Hill, Virginia; as well as loan production offices in Mobile, Alabama and the Chattanooga, Tennessee area. The Bank provides a wide range of commercial banking services to small- and medium-sized businesses, property managers, business executives, professionals and other individuals. The Bank also performs indirect lending through third-party retailers and currently conducts this lending in 17 states, including Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia. The Bank is the Company’s only reportable operating segment upon which management makes decisions regarding how to allocate resources and assess performance.
Delivery of the best possible financial services to customers remains an overall operational focus of the Company. The Company recognizes that attention to detail and responsiveness to customers’ desires are critical to customer satisfaction. The Company continues to upgrade technology, both in its financial services and in the training of its 148 full-time equivalent employees (as of June 30, 2025), to ensure customer satisfaction and convenience.
The preparation of the Company’s consolidated financial statements requires management to make subjective judgments associated with critical accounting estimates. These estimates are necessary to comply with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and general banking practices.

RECENT MARKET CONDITIONS
Economic volatility continued through the six months ended June 30, 2025 due to a number of factors, including reductions in U.S. gross domestic product (“GDP”) during the first quarter of 2025, modest increases in the inflation rate as the second quarter came to a close, and ongoing uncertainty around the ultimate impact of trade tariffs introduced by the Trump administration in April 2025. In addition, geopolitical uncertainty continued with a number of ongoing military conflicts on the global front. The U.S. inflation rate, as measured by the consumer price index, accelerated to 2.7% in June 2025, the highest level since February 2025, and remains elevated above the Federal Reserve Bank’s (“FRB”) longer run target of 2%. The U.S. unemployment rate edged down to 4.1% in June 2025. The unemployment rate has held within a narrow 4.0% - 4.2% range since May 2024. First quarter 2025 GDP reflected annualized contraction of 0.5%, a decline from previous estimates. The weaker GDP figure was largely driven by significant declines in consumer spending and an increase in imports as businesses and consumers stockpiled goods ahead of expected price increases following tariff announcements. Preliminary estimates indicated that second quarter 2025 GDP grew by an annualized rate of 3.0%. The expansion in second quarter primarily reflected a substantial reduction in imports, largely offsetting the surge of import growth in the first quarter. Throughout the first six months of 2025, the Open Market Committee of the FRB did not change the federal funds rate, keeping the rate at a level of 4.25% to 4.50%. Minutes from the Committee’s June 2025 meetings indicated a shift toward higher expectations for interest rates through 2026, and implied two 25 basis point rate cuts in 2025 and two additional in 2026. Although volatile at times, treasury rates generally trended lower during the six-month period, indicating sentiment of further rate reductions to come later in 2025 and 2026. The combination of the continued heightened inflation level, stable employment levels, and volatile GDP provides a difficult environment in which to predict future movement in the federal funds rate and treasury rates.
The impacts of new trade and other economic policies in the U.S., including tariffs and the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, along with the threat to implement additional tariffs, have created economic uncertainty which will continue to evolve and impact our business in future periods. There is a risk that these policy changes could have a negative impact on certain of our customers, causing increased difficulty in repaying their loans or other obligations which could result in a higher level of credit losses in our loan portfolios with a corresponding impact on our results of operations. In the Company’s local markets, competition for deposits has remained at elevated levels causing difficulty in lowering funding costs amid a declining interest rate environment. Uncertainty has continued with respect to commercial lending as business firms assess the potential impact of trade tariffs and the interest rate environment on their activities. However, while consumer spending has generally slowed on a macro-basis, the Company has experienced significant growth in consumer indirect lending at the higher end of the credit spectrum during the first six months of 2025. Management continues to monitor ongoing developments related to economic conditions, the federal funds rate and market interest rates. The competitive environment, combined with ongoing economic uncertainty, provides a challenging environment in which to maintain and increase the Company’s net interest margin. Should economic conditions worsen, the Company is exposed to increased credit risk from both commercial and consumer borrowers. Furthermore, should market interest rates or the federal funds rate increase or decrease at significant levels, particularly over a short period of time, the Company’s net interest margin and net interest income could be negatively impacted.
EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW
The Company earned net income of $0.2 million, or $0.03 per diluted common share, during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $2.1 million, or $0.34 per diluted common share, for the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net income totaled $1.9 million, or $0.32 per diluted share, compared to $4.2 million, or $0.68 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease in net income during both the three months and the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the previous periods, resulted primarily from an increase in the Company’s provision for credit losses on loans and leases.

The discussion that follows summarizes the most significant activity that drove changes in the Company’s operating results during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Net Interest Income and Margin
Net interest income increased by $0.2 million, or 0.9%, comparing the six months ended June 30, 2025 to the six months ended June 30, 2024. Net interest margin was 3.56% for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to 3.67% for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in net interest income comparing the two six-month periods resulted from a combination of increased average interest-earning-asset balances and decreased average rates on deposits. While net interest income increased modestly, net interest margin decreased due to the significance increase in average interest-earning assets over the period, combined with a declining interest rate environment. Average interest-earnings assets increased by $42.9 million comparing the six months ended June 30, 2025 to the six months ended June 30, 2024, driven by growth in consumer indirect loans and, to a lesser extent, investment securities.
Provision for Credit Losses
For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $3.2 million. No provision for credit losses was recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2024. Of the total provision recorded during the 2025 period, $2.3 million was associated with the consumer indirect loan portfolio, while $0.9 million was associated with specific reserves added for two individually evaluated commercial loans. The increased provision associated with the consumer indirect portfolio was attributable to both significant growth in the portfolio during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as well as an increase in net charge-offs. As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s allowance for credit losses ("ACL") on loans and leases as a percentage of total loans was 1.31%, compared to 1.24% as of December 31, 2024.
Non-interest Income
Non-interest income remained relatively consistent, totaling $1.7 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
Non-interest Expense
Non-interest expense remained consistent, totaling $14.4 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.
Total Assets
As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s assets totaled $1,143.4 million, compared to $1,101.1 million as of December 31, 2024, an increase of 3.8%.
43
Loans
Total loans increased by $48.4 million, or 5.9%, as of June 30, 2025, compared to December 31, 2024. The increase was driven primarily by growth of $66.4 million in consumer indirect loans during the six months ended June 30, 2025. The indirect lending platform focuses on recreational and equipment consumer lending on the higher end of the credit spectrum. Collateral financed in the indirect portfolio primarily includes boats, recreational vehicles/campers, horse trailers and cargo trailers. The weighted average credit score of new indirect loans financed during the six months ended June 30, 2025 was 798, while the weighted average credit score for the entire portfolio was 781. In addition to the indirect portfolio, the Company also grew its multi-family residential real estate lending category during the six months ended June 30, 2025 by $17.8 million. Loan growth during the six months ended June 30, 2025 was partially offset by reductions of $35.8 million in other lending categories, primarily construction and non-residential commercial real estate. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, average loan balances increased by $20.4 million, or 2.5%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Asset Quality
Nonperforming assets, including loans in non-accrual status and other real estate owned, totaled $3.7 million as of June 30, 2025, compared to $5.5 million as of December 31, 2024. As a percentage of total assets, nonperforming assets totaled 0.33% as of June 30, 2025, compared to 0.50% as of December 31, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans totaled 0.47%, compared to 0.10% for the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in net charge-offs during the six months ended June 30, 2025 was due to a partial charge-off of one individually evaluated commercial loan of $1.2 million, as well as an increase in charge-offs associated with the indirect portfolio. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net charge-offs associated with the indirect portfolio totaled $0.9 million, or 0.55% of average loans, compared to $0.5 million, or 0.33% of average loans, for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Deposits
Total deposits increased by $14.3 million, or 1.5%, during the six months ended June 30, 2025, due primarily to increases in interest-bearing demand deposit accounts, as well as the addition of brokered certificates of deposit obtained to assist in the management of deposit costs. Core deposits, which exclude time deposits of $250 thousand or more and all wholesale brokered deposits, totaled $816.1 million, or 82.7% of total deposits, as of June 30, 2025, compared to $837.7 million, or 86.1% of total deposits, as of December 31, 2024.
Short-term Borrowings
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $35.0 million in short-term borrowings outstanding, compared to $10.0 million outstanding as of December 31, 2024. The short-term borrowings were held as part of the Company’s efforts to maintain on-balance sheet liquidity levels while repricing deposits at lower rates. As of both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, all outstanding short-term borrowings had remaining maturities of less than 30 days. The amount outstanding as of June 30, 2025 included $20.0 million borrowed from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”) and $15.0 million borrowed from the Federal Reserve Bank’s (“FRB”) discount window. As of December 31, 2024, all short-term borrowings outstanding were borrowed exclusively from the FHLB.
Deployment of Funds
As of June 30, 2025, the Company held cash, federal funds sold and securities purchased under reverse repurchase agreements totaling $58.8 million, or 5.1% of total assets, compared to $52.9 million, or 4.8% of total assets, as of December 31, 2024. Investment securities, including both the available-for-sale and held-to-maturity portfolios, totaled $157.1 million as of June 30, 2025, compared to $168.6 million as of December 31, 2024. As of June 30, 2025, the expected average life of securities in the investment portfolio was 3.7 years, compared to 3.6 years as of December 31, 2024.
Shareholders’ Equity
Shareholders’ equity increased by $3.3 million, or 3.3%, as of June 30, 2025, compared to December 31, 2024. The increase in shareholders’ equity during the six months ended June 30, 2025 resulted primarily from earnings, net of dividends paid and repurchases of shares of the Company's common stock. In addition, shareholders' equity was positively impacted during the six months ended June 30, 2025 by reductions in the Company's accumulated other comprehensive loss resulting from changes in market interest rates, as well as the maturity of lower yielding investment securities.
Cash Dividends
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company declared cash dividends totaling $0.14 per share on its common stock, compared to cash dividends totaling $0.10 per share on its common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2024.
44
Share Repurchases
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company completed the repurchase of 40,000 shares of its common stock at a weighted average price of $13.38 per share. The repurchases were completed under the Company’s previously announced share repurchase program. As of June 30, 2025, 872,813 shares remained available for repurchase under the program.
Regulatory Capital
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Bank continued to maintain capital ratios at higher levels than required to be considered a “well-capitalized” institution under applicable banking regulations. As of June 30, 2025, the Bank’s common equity Tier 1 capital and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios were each 10.70%. Its total capital ratio was 11.93%, and its Tier 1 leverage ratio was 9.23%.
Liquidity
As of June 30, 2025, the Company continued to maintain funding capacity sufficient to provide adequate liquidity for loan growth, capital expenditures and ongoing operations. The Company benefits from a strong core deposit base, a liquid investment securities portfolio and access to funding from a variety of sources, including federal funds lines with other banking institutions, FHLB advances, the FRB's discount window, and brokered deposits.
Banking Center Growth
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company continued its renovation of a banking center office in Daphne, Alabama that was purchased from another financial institution. This location is expected to serve as the Bank’s initial deposit gathering facility in the Daphne/Mobile area. It is currently anticipated that the location will open to the public during the first half of 2026. In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company purchased land in Mobile, Alabama. The Company intends to develop the land into an office complex that will house the Company’s indirect lending operation, as well as provide an additional banking center in the area.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net Interest Income
Net interest income is calculated as the difference between interest and fee income generated from earning assets and the interest expense paid on deposits and borrowed funds. Fluctuations in interest rates, as well as volume and mix changes in earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, can materially impact net interest income. The Company’s earning assets consist of loans, investment securities, Federal Home Loan Bank stock, federal funds sold by the Bank, securities purchased under reverse repurchase agreements and interest-bearing deposits in banks. Interest-bearing liabilities consist of interest-bearing demand deposits and savings and time deposits, as well as short- and long-term borrowings.
The following tables show the average balances of each principal category of assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. Additionally, the tables provide an analysis of interest revenue or expense associated with each category, along with the accompanying yield or rate percentage. Net interest margin is calculated for each period presented as net interest income divided by average total interest-earning assets.

Interest income increased by $49 thousand, comparing the six months ended June 30, 2025 to the six months ended June 30, 2024. While increased average earning-asset balances contributed $1.0 million in interest income growth, this growth was mostly offset by reductions in average yield. Amid a declining interest rate environment, average yields decreased in all interest-earning categories, except investment securities which provided the majority of interest income growth comparing the two six-month periods.
Interest expense decreased by $0.1 million, comparing the six months ended June 30, 2025 to the six months ended June 30, 2024. While a decrease in average rates paid on deposits contributed $0.5 million to the decrease in interest expense, these savings were partially offset by the impact of growth in average deposits and borrowings which increased interest expense by $0.4 million comparing the two six-month periods.
The Company’s net interest income and net interest margin during the six months ended June 30, 2025 continued to be impacted by changes in the interest rate environment that began during the latter months of 2024. Notably, between September and December 2024, the federal funds rate was reduced by 100 basis points, and generally, the Company’s earning assets repriced more quickly than interest-bearing liabilities during the latter part of 2024, reducing the Company’s net interest margin to 3.41% during the three months ended December 31 2024. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, management continued efforts to both maximize earning asset growth and reduce interest expense, resulting in an improvement in net interest margin by 12 basis points, comparing the first quarter of 2025 to the fourth quarter of 2024, and an additional six basis points, comparing the second quarter of 2025 to the first quarter of 2025. While net interest margin improved for two consecutive quarters, it remained below the levels recorded during the earlier periods of 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, net interest margin was 3.56%, compared to 3.67% for the six months ended June 30, 2024. While management is continuing efforts to improve net interest margin, the results of these efforts cannot be fully predicted. Should market interest rates increase or decrease at significant levels, particularly over a short period of time, the Company’s net interest margin and net interest income could be negatively impacted.

Provision for Credit Losses
The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $3.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025. No provision for credit losses was recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2024. Of the total provision recorded during the 2025 period, $2.3 million was associated with the consumer indirect loan portfolio, while $0.9 million was associated with specific reserves added for two individually evaluated commercial loans. The increased provision associated with the consumer indirect portfolio was attributable to both significant growth in the portfolio during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as well as an increase in net charge-offs.
Net charge-offs totaled $2.0 million and $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Of the net charge-offs recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2025, $1.2 million was associated with one individually evaluated commercial loan and $0.9 million was associated with the consumer indirect loan portfolio. These net charge-offs were partially offset by $0.1 million in net recoveries associated with the consumer direct portfolio. The $1.2 million charge-off on the individually evaluated commercial loan had been fully reserved during 2024. Of the net charge-offs recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2024, $0.5 million was associated with the consumer indirect portfolio, partially offset by $0.1 million in net recoveries in the consumer direct portfolio.
As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s ACL as a percentage of total loans and leases was 1.31%, compared to 1.24% as of December 31, 2024. While we believe that the methodologies and calculations that have been used in the determination of the ACL are adequate, the determination of the appropriateness of the ACL is complex and requires judgment by management about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain. Factors beyond our control, such as changes in economic forecasts related to the national economy, changes in consumer behavior, or economic deterioration in service areas in which the Company operates, may negatively and materially affect asset quality and the adequacy of the ACL, as well as the resulting provision for credit losses.

The Company’s non-interest income remained relatively consistent, totaling $1.7 million for both the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. Management continues to evaluate opportunities to add non-interest revenue streams and grow existing streams; however, significant variation in non-interest income is not expected in the near term.

Non-interest expense totaled $14.4 million during both the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. In recent years, as a result of strategic initiatives introduced by management beginning in 2021, the Company was able to reduce and then maintain non-interest expense at relatively flat levels. While this trend has continued through the six months ended June 30, 2025, the majority of efficiency improvements from the Company’s strategic initiatives have now been realized. Therefore, we would expect non-interest expense to increase over time in accordance with inflationary trends, market competition for personnel, the pace of technological change, and other factors including the Company’s ongoing growth.
Provision for Income Taxes
The provision for income taxes was $0.6 million and $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate was 22.6% and 23.0%, respectively, for the same periods.
The effective tax rate is impacted by recurring items, such as changes in tax-exempt interest income earned from bank-qualified municipal bonds and loans and the cash surrender value of bank-owned life insurance. Management makes decisions about whether to invest in tax-exempt instruments on a case-by-case basis after considering a number of factors, including investment return, credit quality and the consistency of such investments with the Company’s overall strategy. The Company’s effective tax rate is expected to fluctuate commensurate with the level of these investments as compared to total pre-tax income.
In July 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the "OBBBA") was signed into law, which includes a broad range of tax reform provisions affecting businesses, including extending and modifying certain key provisions from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and expanding certain incentives from the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 while accelerating the phase-out of others. We do not anticipate a material impact on our income tax expense and taxes payable from the tax provisions of the OBBBA
BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS
Investment Securities
The investment securities portfolio is used by management to provide liquidity, to generate interest income and for use as collateral for public deposits and wholesale funding. Risk and return can be adjusted by altering the duration, composition and/or balance of the portfolio. The expected average life of securities in the investment portfolio was 3.7 years and 3.6 years as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Available-for-sale securities are recorded at estimated fair value, with unrealized gains or losses recognized, net of taxes, in accumulated other comprehensive loss, a separate component of shareholders’ equity. As of June 30, 2025, available-for-sale securities totaled $156.6 million, or 99.6% of the total investment portfolio, compared to $167.9 million, or 99.6% of the total investment portfolio, as of December 31, 2024.
50
Available-for-sale securities consisted of residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, U.S. Treasury securities, corporate bonds, obligations of U.S. government-sponsored agencies, and obligations of state and political subdivisions.
Held-to-maturity securities are recorded at amortized cost and represent securities that the Company both intends and has the ability to hold to maturity. As of June 30, 2025, held-to-maturity securities totaled $0.6 million, or 0.4% of the total investment portfolio, compared to $0.7 million, or 0.4% of the total investment portfolio, as of December 31, 2024. Held-to-maturity securities consisted of commercial mortgage-backed securities, obligations of U.S. government-sponsored agencies, and obligations of state and political subdivisions.
Net unrealized losses in the available-for-sale portfolio totaled $3.0 million as of June 30, 2025, compared to $6.7 million as of December 31, 2024. Net unrealized losses within the available-for-sale portfolio were recognized, net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive loss.
As of June 30, 2025, the Company evaluated both the available-for-sale and held-to-maturity portfolios for credit losses and concluded that no credit losses were included in either portfolio and that the unrealized losses in both portfolios resulted from the prevailing interest rate environment.
Loans and Leases
The Company’s total loan portfolio increased by $48.4 million, or 5.9%, as of June 30, 2025, compared to December 31, 2024. The tables below summarize loan balances by portfolio category, as well as the ACL, as of the end of each of the most recent five quarters as of June 30, 2025:

Allowance for Credit Losses on Unfunded Lending Commitments
The Company records an ACL on unfunded lending commitments in which the Company is exposed to credit risk via a present contractual obligation to extend credit unless the obligation is unconditionally cancellable. Unconditional lending commitments generally include unfunded term loan agreements, home equity lines of credit, lines of credit, and demand deposit account overdraft protection.
As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s reserve for unfunded commitments, which is recorded in other liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, totaled $0.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

Deposits
Total deposits increased to $986.8 million as of June 30, 2025, from $972.6 million as of December 31, 2024, an increase of 1.5%. The increase was due primarily to increases in interest-bearing money market accounts, as well as the addition of brokered certificates of deposit obtained to assist in the management of deposit costs over specific terms. Core deposits, which exclude time deposits of $250 thousand or more and all brokered deposits, provide a relatively stable funding source that supports earning assets. Core deposits totaled $816.1 million, or 82.7% of total deposits, as of June 30, 2025, compared to $837.7 million, or 86.1% of total deposits, as of December 31, 2024.
Core deposits have historically been the Company’s primary source of funding and have enabled the Company to successfully meet both short-term and long-term liquidity needs. Management anticipates that core deposits will continue to be the Company’s primary source of funding in the future. Management will continue to monitor deposit levels closely to help ensure an adequate level of funding for the Company’s activities. However, various economic and competitive factors could affect this funding source in the future, including increased competition from other financial institutions in deposit gathering, national and local economic conditions and interest rate policies adopted by the FRB and other central banks.

Other Interest-Bearing Liabilities
Other interest-bearing liabilities that are used by the Company as an alternative source of funds consist of federal funds purchased, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, FHLB advances, and subordinated debt. As of June 30, 2025, other interest-bearing liabilities totaled 5.2% of total interest-bearing liabilities, compared to 2.5% as of December 31, 2024.
Shareholders’ Equity
As of June 30, 2025, shareholders’ equity totaled $101.9 million, or 8.9% of total assets, compared to $98.6 million, or 9.0% of total assets, as of December 31, 2024. The increase in shareholders’ equity during the six months ended June 30, 2025 resulted primarily from earnings, net of dividends paid and repurchases of shares of the Company's common stock. In addition, shareholders' equity was positively impacted during the six months ended June 30, 2025 by reductions in the Company's accumulated other comprehensive loss resulting from changes in market interest rates, as well as the maturity of lower yielding investment securities.
During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company declared cash dividends totaling $0.14 per share on its common stock, compared to cash dividends totaling $0.10 per share on its common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2024.
In addition, during the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company completed the repurchase of 40,000 shares of its common stock at a weighted average price of $13.38 per share. The repurchases were completed under the Company’s previously announced share repurchase program. As of June 30, 2025, 872,813 shares remained available for repurchase under the program. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company repurchased 77,000 shares of its common stock at a weighted average price of $10.60 per share.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
The asset portion of the balance sheet provides liquidity primarily from the following sources: (1) excess cash and interest-bearing deposits in banks, (2) federal funds sold and securities purchased under reverse repurchase agreements, (3) principal payments and maturities of loans and (4) principal payments and maturities from the investment portfolio. Loans maturing or repricing in one year or less amounted to $272.2 million as of June 30, 2025 and $279.0 million as of December 31, 2024. Investment securities forecasted to mature or reprice in one year or less were estimated to be $26.1 million and $29.6 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Although some securities in the investment portfolio have final maturities exceeding 10 years, a substantial percentage of the portfolio provides monthly principal and interest payments and consists of securities that are readily marketable and easily convertible into cash on short notice. The investment securities portfolio had an estimated average life of 3.7 years and 3.6 years as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. However, management does not rely solely upon the investment portfolio to generate cash flows to fund loans, capital expenditures, dividends, debt repayment and other cash requirements. These activities are also funded by cash flows from loan payments, as well as increases in deposits and short-term borrowings.
The liability portion of the balance sheet provides liquidity through interest-bearing and non-interest-bearing deposit accounts, which represent the Company’s primary sources of funds. In addition, federal funds purchased, FHLB advances, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and short-term and long-term borrowings are additional sources of available liquidity. Liquidity management involves the continual monitoring of the sources and uses of funds to maintain an acceptable cash position. Long-term liquidity management focuses on considerations related to the total balance sheet structure. The Bank manages the pricing of its deposits to maintain a desired deposit balance.
The Company had $20.0 million and $10.0 million of outstanding borrowings under FHLB advances as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The Company's use of FHLB advances varies depending on fluctuations in deposits and other funding sources, as well as their use in interest rate hedging strategies. The Company had up to $298.0 million and $319.9 million in remaining unused credit from the FHLB (subject to available collateral, which may include eligible investment securities and loans) as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
The Company also has access to the FRB’s discount window. The discount window allows borrowing on pledged collateral that includes eligible investment securities and loans. The Company maintains pledges of its consumer indirect loan portfolio and selected investment securities with the FRB as collateral to provide immediate access to funding through the discount window. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 the Company had $181.9 and $165.1 million, respectively, in borrowing capacity with the FRB’s discount window. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Bank had $15.0 million and zero, respectively, in outstanding federal funds purchased from the FRB's discount window.
In addition to collateralized funding sources through the FHLB and FRB, the Company had $48.0 million in unused established unsecured lines of credit with banks as of both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
On October 1, 2021, the Company completed a private placement of $11.0 million in aggregate principal amount of fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes that will mature on October 1, 2031. Net of unamortized debt issuance costs, the subordinated notes were recorded as long-term borrowings totaling $10.9 million as of both June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

The table above calculates readily available liquidity by combining cash and cash equivalents, federal funds sold, securities purchased under reverse repurchase agreements and unencumbered investment security values on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet with off-balance sheet liquidity that is readily available through unused collateral pledged to the FHLB and FRB, as well as unsecured lines of credit with other banks. Liquidity from pledgable investment securities and total readily available liquidity are non-GAAP measures used by management and regulators to analyze a portion of the Company's liquidity. Management uses these measures to evaluate the Company's liquidity position.
Pledgable investment securities are considered by management as a readily available source of liquidity since the Company has the ability to pledge the securities with the FHLB or FRB to obtain immediate funding. Both available-for-sale and held-for-maturity securities may be pledged at fair value with the FHLB and through the FRB discount window. The amounts shown as liquidity from pledgable investment securities represent total investment securities as recorded on the consolidated balance sheet, less reductions for securities already pledged and discounts expected to be taken by the lender to determine collateral value.
The unused lendable collateral value at the FHLB presented in the table represents only the amount immediately available to the Company from loans already pledged by the Company to the FHLB as of each consolidated balance sheet date presented. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company's total remaining credit availability with the FHLB was $298.0 million and $319.9 million, respectively, subject to the pledging of additional collateral which may include eligible investment securities and loans. In addition, the Company has access to additional sources of liquidity that generally could be obtained over a period of time. For example, the Company has access to unsecured brokered deposits through the wholesale funding markets. Management believes the Company’s on-balance sheet and other readily available liquidity provide strong indicators of the Company’s ability to fund obligations in a stressed liquidity environment.
Excluding wholesale brokered deposits, as of June 30, 2025, the Company had approximately 28 thousand deposit accounts with an average balance of approximately $31.1 thousand per account. Estimated uninsured deposits (calculated as deposit amounts per deposit holder in excess of $250 thousand, the maximum amount of federal deposit insurance, and excluding deposits secured by pledged assets) totaled $202.5 million, or 20.5% of total deposits, as of June 30, 2025. As of December 31, 2024, estimated uninsured deposits totaled $216.8 million, or 22.2% of total deposits.
Management believes that the Company has adequate sources of liquidity to cover its contractual obligations and commitments over the next twelve months.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
The primary purpose of managing interest rate risk is to invest capital effectively and preserve the value created by the Company’s core banking business. This is accomplished through the development and implementation of lending, funding, pricing and hedging strategies designed to maximize net interest income performance under varying interest rate environments, subject to liquidity and interest rate risk guidelines. Effective interest rate sensitivity management ensures that both assets and liabilities respond to changes in interest rates within an acceptable timeframe, thereby minimizing the effect of such interest rate movements on short- and long-term net interest margin and net interest income.
Financial simulation models are the primary tools used by the Asset/Liability Committee of the Bank’s board of directors to measure interest rate exposure. Using a wide range of scenarios, management is provided with extensive information on the potential impact on net interest income caused by changes in interest rates. In these simulations, assumptions are made about the direction and volatility of interest rates, the slope of the yield curve and the changing composition of the Company’s balance sheet resulting from both strategic plans and customer behavior. Simulation models also incorporate management’s assumptions regarding such factors as loan and deposit growth, pricing, prepayment speeds and spreads between interest rates paid on deposits and charged on loans. Because of limitations inherent in any approach used to measure interest rate risk, simulation results are not intended as a forecast of the actual effect of a change in market interest rates on our results but rather as a means to better plan and execute appropriate asset-liability management strategies and manage our interest rate risk.
Assessing Short-Term Interest Rate Risk – Net Interest Margin Simulation
On a quarterly basis, management simulates how changes in short- and long-term interest rates will impact future profitability, as reflected by changes in the Bank’s net interest margin and net interest income. The tables below depict how, as of June 30, 2025, pre-tax net interest margin and net interest income are forecasted to change over timeframes of one year and two years under the six listed interest rate scenarios. The interest rate scenarios contemplate immediate and parallel shifts in short- and long-term interest rates.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Conclusion Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Bancshares maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in Bancshares’ reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to Bancshares’ management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
Bancshares’ management carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Bancshares’ disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) as of June 30, 2025, pursuant to the evaluation of these controls and procedures required by Rule 13a-15 of the Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, Bancshares’ management concluded, as of June 30, 2025, that Bancshares’ disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level to ensure that the information required to be disclosed in Bancshares’ periodic filings with the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in Bancshares’ internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended June 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
