John Marshall Bancorp Q3 net income rises to $7.54M
Eagle common shareholders would have the right to receive 2.00 JMSB shares per share; closing is expected early in the first quarter of 2027, subject to approvals.
Sentiment and the balance of points
Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.
John Marshall Bancorp, Inc. (JMSB) reported third-quarter net income of $7.541 million, compared with $5.404 million a year earlier. Net interest income was $17.788 million versus $15.600 million, and diluted earnings per share were $0.53 versus $0.38. For the first nine months, net income was $20.662 million, compared with $15.317 million.
On September 7, the company entered a merger agreement with Eagle Financial Services, Inc. Subject to the agreement’s terms and conditions, each outstanding Eagle common share would convert into the right to receive 2.00 JMSB shares, with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares. Eagle subsidiary Bank of Clarke would merge into John Marshall Bank. The transaction is expected to close early in the first quarter of 2027, subject to customary conditions including regulatory approvals and shareholder approval by both companies. At September 30, total assets were $2.437 billion and deposits were $2.064 billion. The company reported its only nonaccrual loan as a $267,000 guaranteed portion of an SBA 7(a) loan; it charged off the $89,000 unguaranteed portion in the second quarter and submitted a reimbursement claim to the SBA.
How this balance works
Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.
It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.
Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Dollars in thousands, unless otherwise stated)
(Unaudited)
Note 1— Nature of Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Nature of Banking Activities
John Marshall Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), headquartered in Reston, Virginia, became the registered bank holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 for its wholly-owned subsidiary, John Marshall Bank (the “Bank”), on March 1, 2017. This reorganization was completed through a one-for-one share exchange in which the Bank’s shareholders received
Basis of Presentation
The accounting and reporting policies of John Marshall Bancorp, Inc. conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and reflect practices of the banking industry. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial reporting and with applicable quarterly reporting regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). They do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. As such, these consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto as of and for the year ended December 31, 2025, included in the Company’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 13, 2026.
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions between the Company and the Bank have been eliminated. In preparing financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan credit losses.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations in these financial statements, have been made. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or for the full year. All amounts and disclosures included in this quarterly report as of December 31, 2025, were derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements.
Segment Reporting
The Company has
The CODMs regularly assess performance of the aggregated single operating and reporting segment and decide how to allocate resources based on net income calculated on the same basis as is reported in the Company’s consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income. The CODMs are also regularly provided with expense information at a level consistent with that disclosed in the Company’s statements of income and comprehensive income.

Table of Contents
Significant Accounting Policies and Estimates
Application of the principles of GAAP and practices within the banking industry requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; accordingly, as this information changes, the financial statements may reflect different estimates, assumptions, and judgments. Certain policies inherently rely more extensively on the use of estimates, assumptions, and judgments and as such may have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported.
The Company's significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 1 of the audited financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2025 and are contained in the Company's 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to the application of significant accounting policies since December 31, 2025.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
ASU 2024-03: In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income— Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses.” ASU 2024-03 requires public companies to disclose, in the notes to the financial statements, specific information about certain costs and expenses at each interim and annual reporting period. This includes disclosing amounts related to employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. In addition, public companies will need to provide a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively. ASU 2024-03 is effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Implementation of ASU 2024-03 may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2024-03 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2025-08: In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-08, “Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans.” The amendments in this ASU expand the population of acquired financial assets accounted for using the gross-up approach. Acquired loans (excluding credit cards) are deemed purchased seasoned loans and accounted for using the gross-up approach upon acquisition if criteria established by the new guidance are met. This change aims to enhance comparability, consistency, and better reflect the economics of acquiring financial assets. This ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and for interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted in an interim or annual reporting period in which financial statements have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. If an entity adopts this ASU in an interim reporting period, it should apply it as of the beginning of that interim reporting period or the beginning of the annual reporting period that includes that interim reporting period. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2025-08 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2025-12: In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-12, “Codification Improvements.” The amendments in this ASU update the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) for a broad range of Topics arising from technical corrections, unintended application of the Codification, clarifications, and other minor improvements. The amendments in this ASU are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted in both interim and annual periods in which financial statements have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. If an entity adopts the amendments in this ASU in an interim period, it must adopt them as of the beginning of the annual period that includes that interim period. An entity may elect to early adopt the amendments on an issue-by-issue basis. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2025-12 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company evaluates the credit risk of its held-to-maturity securities on at least a quarterly basis. The Company estimates expected credit losses on held-to-maturity securities on an individual basis based on a probability of default/loss given default methodology primarily using security-level credit ratings. The primary indicators of credit quality for the Company’s held-to-maturity portfolio are security type and credit rating, which is influenced by a number of factors including obligor cash flow, geography, seniority, and others.

Portfolio Segments
The Company currently manages its loan products and the respective exposure to credit losses by the following specific portfolio segments which are levels at which the Company develops and documents its systematic methodology to determine the allowance for loan credit losses attributable to each respective portfolio segment. These segments are:
| ● | Real estate - commercial loans – The real estate commercial loans category contains commercial mortgage loans secured by owner occupied, non-owner occupied, and multifamily real estate. |
| ● | Real estate - construction and land development loans – The real estate construction and land development loans category contains residential and commercial construction loan financing to builders and developers and to consumers building their own homes. |
| ● | Real estate - residential loans – The real estate residential mortgage loans category contains permanent mortgage loans principally to consumers secured by residential real estate. |
| ● | Commercial loans – The commercial loans category contains business purpose loans made to provide funds for the financing of equipment, receivables, contract administration expenses, and other general corporate needs of commercial businesses. |
| ● | Consumer loans – The consumer loans category contains personal loans such as installment loans and lines of credit. |
Loan Servicing Rights
Under the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) 7(a) program, the Bank can sell in the secondary market the guaranteed portion of its SBA 7(a) loans and retain the related unguaranteed portion of these loans, as well as the servicing on such loans, for which it is paid a fee. The Company generally offers SBA 7(a) loans within a range of $
Loan servicing rights are capitalized at estimated fair value when acquired through the origination of loans that are subsequently sold with the servicing rights retained. Loan servicing rights are amortized to servicing income on loans sold approximately in proportion to and over the period of estimated net servicing income. The value of loan servicing rights at the date of the sale of loans is estimated based on the discounted present value of expected future cash flows using key assumptions for servicing income and costs and expected prepayment rates on the underlying loans.
The carrying value of loan servicing rights is periodically evaluated for impairment by comparing actual cash flows and estimated future cash flows from the loan servicing assets to those estimated at the time that the loan servicing assets were originated. Fair values are estimated using discounted expected future cash flows based on current market rates of interest. For purposes of measuring impairment, the loan servicing rights must be stratified by one or more predominant risk characteristics of the underlying loans. The Company stratifies its capitalized loan servicing rights based on product type and term of the underlying loans. The amount of impairment

recognized is the amount, if any, by which the amortized cost of the loan servicing rights exceeds their carrying value. Impairment, if deemed temporary, is recognized through a valuation allowance to the extent that fair value is less than the recorded amount.
At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the total outstanding principal balance of the Bank’s SBA 7(a) loan servicing portfolio, which is not included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, totaled $

Credit Quality Indicators
The Company assesses credit quality indicators based on internal risk rating of loans. Each loan is evaluated at least annually with more frequent evaluation of more severely criticized loans. The indicators that determine the rating for loans as of the date presented are based on the most recent credit review performed. Internal risk rating definitions are:
Pass: These include satisfactory loans that have acceptable levels of risk.
Special Mention: Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that requires close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the Company’s credit position at some future date. These credits do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant further adverse classification.
Substandard: A substandard asset is inadequately protected by the current worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans classified as substandard must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
Doubtful: Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in a substandard asset with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
Loss: Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this basically worthless asset even though partial recovery may be received in the future.
The Company has a portfolio of smaller homogenous loans that are not individually risk rated and include residential permanent and construction mortgages, home equity lines of credit, and consumer installment loans. For these loans, management uses payment status as the primary credit quality indicator. The payment status of these loans is then translated into an internal risk rating. The following table summarizes the translation of past due status to risk rating for loans that are not individually risk rated.
| | |
| | Internal |
Days Past Due | | Risk Rating |
0 - 29 days | | Pass |
30-59 days | | Special Mention |
60-89 days | | Substandard |

Table of Contents
Modifications with Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
The allowance for loan credit losses incorporates an estimate of lifetime expected credit losses and is recorded on each asset upon asset origination. The starting point for the estimate of the allowance for loan credit losses is historical loss information, which includes losses from modifications of receivables to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. The Company may provide concessions to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty to minimize the economic loss and improve long-term loan performance and collectability. An assessment of whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty is made on the date of a modification. The Company did
Unfunded Commitments
The Company maintains an allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposures such as unfunded balances for existing lines of credit, commitments to extend future credit, as well as both standby and commercial letters of credit when there is a contractual obligation to extend credit and when this extension of credit is not unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The allowance for off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted as a provision for (or recovery of) credit losses in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur, which is based on a historical funding study derived from internal information, and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life, which are the same loss rates that are used in computing the allowance for loan credit losses. The allowance for credit losses for unfunded loan commitments of $

Note 5— Derivatives
The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements (“swaps”) with commercial loan customers to provide a facility for customers to manage their interest rate risk. These swaps are matched in exact offsetting terms with swaps that the Company enters into with an independent third party. These swaps qualify as derivatives, but are not designated as hedging instruments.

Note 7— Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is party to financial instruments with off balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and financial guarantees. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. The contract or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement the Company has in particular classes of financial instruments. The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit and financial guarantees written is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments.
The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on balance sheet instruments.
The following table summarizes the contract or notional amount of the Company’s exposure to off-balance sheet risk as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Commitments to extend credit | | $ | | | $ | |
Standby letters of credit | | $ | | | $ | |
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral held

varies but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, income-producing commercial properties, and other real estate properties.
Unfunded commitments under lines of credit are commitments for possible future extensions of credit to existing customers. Those lines of credit may not be drawn upon to the total extent to which the Company is committed.
Standby letters of credit written are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements, including commercial paper, bond financing, and similar transactions. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers.
Note 8— Fair Value Measurements
Determination of Fair Value
The Company determines the fair values of its financial instruments based on the fair value hierarchy established by ASC Topic 820 – Fair Value Measurement, which defines fair value as an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market and in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.
The fair value measurements and disclosures topic specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques based on whether the inputs to those valuation techniques are observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s market assumptions.
Fair Value Hierarchy
In accordance with this guidance, the Company groups its assets and liabilities measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value.
Level 1 - Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 1 assets and liabilities generally include debt and equity securities that are traded in an active exchange market. Valuations are obtained from readily available pricing sources for market transactions involving identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 - Valuation is based on inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. The valuation may be based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.
Level 3 - Valuation is based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
In accordance with ASC Topic 820, the following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain financial assets recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the financial statements.
Securities Available-for-sale and Equity Securities
Securities available-for-sale and equity securities with readily determinable fair values are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair
24
Table of Contents
values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data (Level 2). If the inputs used to provide the evaluation for certain securities are unobservable and/or there is little, if any, market activity then the security would fall to the lowest level of the hierarchy (Level 3).
The Company’s investment portfolio is primarily valued using fair value measurements that are considered to be Level 2. The Company has contracted with a third-party portfolio accounting service vendor for valuation of its portfolio of debt securities. The vendor’s primary source for security valuation is ICE Data Services, which evaluates securities based on market data. ICE Data Services utilizes evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class and include available trade, bid, and other market information. Generally, the methodology includes broker quotes, proprietary models, vast descriptive terms and conditions databases, as well as extensive quality control programs.
The vendor utilizes proprietary valuation matrices for valuing all municipal securities. The initial curves for determining the price, movement, and yield relationships within the municipal matrices are derived from industry benchmark curves or sourced from a municipal trading desk. The securities are further broken down according to issuer, credit support, state of issuance and rating to incorporate additional spreads to the industry benchmark curves.
Interest Rate Swap Agreements
Interest rate swap agreements are measured by alternative pricing sources using a discounted cash flow method that incorporates current market interest rates. Based on the complex nature of interest rate swap agreements, the markets these instruments trade in are not as efficient and are less liquid than that of the more mature Level 1 markets. These characteristics classify interest rate swap agreements as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

The Company designates individually evaluated loans on nonaccrual status as collateral dependent loans, as well as other loans that management of the Company designates as having higher risk and loans for which the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral. The measurement of loss associated with collateral dependent loans can be based on either the observable market price of the loan or the fair value of the collateral. Collateral may be in the form of real estate or business assets including equipment, inventory, and accounts receivable. The vast majority of the Company’s collateral is real estate. The value of real estate collateral is determined utilizing a market valuation approach based on an appraisal, of one year or less, conducted by an independent, licensed appraiser using observable market data (Level 2). However, if the collateral is a house or building in the process of construction, or if an appraisal of the property is more than one year old and not solely based on observable market comparables, or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value, then a Level 3 valuation is considered to measure the fair value. The value of business equipment is based upon an outside appraisal, of one year or less, if deemed significant, or the net book value on the applicable business’s financial statements if not considered significant using observable market data. Likewise, values for inventory and accounts receivables collateral are based on financial statement balances or aging reports (Level 3). Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred as provision for credit losses on the Consolidated Statements of Income. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were
Other Real Estate Owned (“OREO”)
OREO is carried at the lower of cost or fair value less selling costs. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value using observable market data, the Company records the property as Level 2. When an appraised value using observable market data is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the property as Level 3 valuation. Any fair value adjustments are recorded in the period incurred and expensed against current earnings. The Company had

Note 9— Earnings per Common Share
Earnings per common share is calculated in accordance with ASC 260 - Earnings Per Share, which provides that unvested share-based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method.
Under the two-class method, basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net earnings allocated to common stock by the weighted-average number of voting common shares outstanding during the applicable period, excluding outstanding participating securities. Diluted earnings per common share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares determined for the basic earnings per common share computation plus the dilutive effect of stock compensation using the treasury stock method.
The following table summarizes the computation of earnings per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

Note 11— Regulatory Capital
The Company is a bank holding company with less than $
The Bank is subject to capital adequacy standards adopted by the Federal Reserve, including the capital rules that implemented the Basel III regulatory capital reforms developed by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory – possibly additional discretionary – actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Management believes that the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
30
Table of Contents
Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets, and Tier 1 capital to average assets.
In addition to the minimum regulatory capital required for capital adequacy purposes, the Bank is required to maintain a minimum capital conservation buffer above those minimums in the form of common equity. The capital conservation buffer is designed to absorb losses during periods of economic stress. Banking institutions with a ratio of common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets above the minimum but below the conservation buffer will face constraints on dividends, equity repurchases, and discretionary compensation paid to certain officers, based on the amount of the shortfall. The capital conservation buffer was
As of September 30, 2026, the most recent notification from the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond (“Federal Reserve Bank”) categorized the Bank as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the institution must maintain minimum total risk-based, common equity Tier 1, Tier 1 risk-based, and Tier 1 leverage ratios as set forth in the table below. There are no conditions or events since the notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

Note 12— Revenue
Certain of the Company’s non-interest revenue streams are derived from short-term contracts associated with services provided to deposit account holders as well as other ancillary services, which are accounted for in accordance with ASC 606 – Revenue Recognition. For most of these revenue streams, the duration of the contract does not extend beyond the services performed. Due to the short duration of most customer contracts that generate non-interest income, no significant judgments must be made in the determination of the amount and timing of revenue recognized.

A description of the Company’s revenue streams accounted for under ASC 606 follows:
Service charges on deposit accounts
Service charges on deposit accounts consist of overdrawn account fees and account service fees. Overdrawn account fees are recognized at the point in time that the overdraft occurs. Account service fees consist primarily of account analysis and other maintenance fees and are earned over the course of a month, representing the period over which the Company satisfies the performance obligation. Payment for service charges on deposit accounts is received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to customers’ accounts.
Other service charges and fees
Other service charges and fees are primarily comprised of interchange income and other charges and fees. Interchange income is earned whenever the Company’s debit and credit cards are processed through card payment networks such as Visa. Other charges and fees include revenue from processing wire transfers, cashier’s checks, and other transaction-based services. The Company’s performance obligation for these charges and fees is largely satisfied, and related revenue recognized, when the services are rendered or upon completion. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month.
Net gains (losses) on premises and equipment
The Company records a gain or loss on the disposition of premises and equipment when control of the property transfers or is involuntarily converted to a monetary asset (e.g., insurance proceeds). This income is reflected in other operating income on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.
Insurance commissions
The Company performs the function of an insurance intermediary by introducing the policyholder and insurer and is compensated in the form of a commission for placement of an insurance policy based on a percentage of premiums issued and maintained during the period. Revenue is recognized when received.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis of the consolidated financial condition and results of operations of the Company and its subsidiary should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes presented in Item 1, Financial Statements, of this Form 10-Q. Historical results of operations and the percentage relationships among any amounts included, and any trends that may appear, may not indicate results of operations or trends in operations for any future periods.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This discussion and analysis contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Management believes that the supplemental non-GAAP information provides a better comparison of period-to-period operating performance. Additionally, the Company believes this information is utilized by regulators and market analysts to evaluate a company’s financial condition and therefore, such information is useful to investors.
Non-GAAP measures used in this report consist of the following:
| ● | Core net income, core net income available to common shareholders, core earnings per common share - diluted, core ROAA, and core ROAE, reflecting adjustments related to merger and acquisition expenses incurred as a result of the pending merger with Eagle Financial Services, Inc. (“Eagle”), as well as a gain on sale of the Company’s equity investment unit in Bearing Insurance. |
| ● | Core non-interest expenses, core total revenues, core non-interest expense to average assets, and core efficiency ratio reflecting adjustments related to merger and acquisition expenses incurred as a result of the pending merger with Eagle, as well as a gain on sale of the Company’s equity investment unit in Bearing Insurance. |
| ● | Tax-equivalent net interest income. |
These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for or more important than financial results in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may be presented by other companies. Where the non-GAAP financial measure is used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as reconciliation to that comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as a statement of the company’s reasons for utilizing the non-GAAP financial measure, can be found within this discussion and analysis. Please refer to the table below for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP to comparable GAAP financial measures.

Cautionary Note on Forward-Looking Statements
In addition to historical information, this report contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that are based on certain assumptions and describe future plans, strategies and expectations of the Company, Eagle, the combined company or otherwise relating to the proposed transaction of the Company and Eagle (the “proposed transaction”). These forward-looking statements are generally identified by use of the words “believe,” “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” “will,” “should,” “may,” “view,” “opportunity,” “potential,” or similar expressions or expressions of confidence. Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Because forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions and uncertainties, actual results or future events could differ, possibly materially, from those indicated in or implied by such forward-looking statements as a result of a variety of factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, Eagle and the combined company. Caution should be exercised against placing undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Factors which could cause actual results to differ materially include, but are not limited to, the following:
| • | the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of the Company or Eagle to terminate the merger agreement; |
| • | the outcome of any legal proceedings or governmental inquiries or actions that may be instituted against the Company, Eagle or the combined company; |
| • | the possibility that the proposed transaction will not close when expected or at all because required regulatory, shareholder or other approvals or consents are not received or other conditions to the closing are not satisfied on a timely basis or at all, or are obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated (and the risk that required regulatory approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the proposed transaction); |
| • | the ability of the Company and Eagle to meet expectations regarding the timing, completion and accounting and tax treatments of the proposed transaction; |
| • | any changes of, including the risk that any announcements relating to the proposed transaction could have adverse effects on, the market price of the common stock of the Company or Eagle; |
| • | the possibility that the anticipated benefits or synergies of the proposed transaction will not be realized when expected or at all, including as a result of the impact of, or problems arising from, the integration of the two companies or as a result of the strength of the economy and competitive factors in the areas where the Company and Eagle do business, and such integration may be more difficult, time-consuming or costly than expected and may result in unexpected liabilities or operational disruptions; |
| • | certain restrictions during the pendency of the proposed transaction that may impact the Company’s and Eagle’s ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; |
| • | the possibility that the transaction may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; |
| • | diversion of the Company management’s or Eagle management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; |
| • | revenues following the proposed transaction may be lower than expected; |
| • | the concentration of the Company’s business in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area and the effect of changes in the economic, political and environmental conditions on this market, including shutdowns and potential reductions in spending by the United States government, and related reductions in the federal workforce; |
| • | adequacy of allowance for loan credit losses, allowance for unfunded commitments credit losses, and allowance for credit losses associated with the Company’s held-to-maturity and available-for-sale securities portfolios; |
| • | deterioration of the Company’s or Eagle’s asset quality; |
| • | future performance of the Company’s or Eagle’s loan portfolio with respect to recently originated loans; |
| • | the level of prepayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities; |
| • | liquidity, market volatility, interest rate and operational risks; |
| • | changes in the financial condition or results of operations that reduce capital of the Company, Eagle or the combined company; |
| • | the ability of the Company, Eagle or the combined company to maintain existing deposit relationships or attract new deposit relationships; |

| • | implications of the Company’s status as a smaller reporting company and as an emerging growth company; and |
| • | other factors discussed in the Company’s and Eagle’s reports (such as Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K) filed with the SEC. |

Overview
We are a bank holding company headquartered in Reston, Virginia primarily serving the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. The material business operations of our organization are performed through the Bank. As a result, the discussion and analysis within this section primarily relate to activities conducted at the Bank.
As with most community banks, the Bank derives a significant portion of its income from interest received on loans and investments. The Bank’s primary source of funding is deposits, both interest-bearing and non-interest-bearing. To account for credit risk inherent in all loans, the Bank maintains an allowance for loan credit losses to absorb lifetime losses on existing loans. The Bank establishes and maintains this allowance by recording a provision for credit losses against earnings. In addition to net interest income, the Bank also generates income through service charges on deposits, insurance commission income, merchant services fee income, swap fee income and gain on sale of the guaranteed portion of U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”) 7(a) loans. In order to maintain its operations, the Bank incurs various operating expenses which are further described within the “Results of Operations” later in this section.
As of September 30, 2026, the Company had total consolidated assets of $2.44 billion, total loans net of unearned income of $2.01 billion, total deposits of $2.06 billion and total shareholders’ equity of $277.1 million.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company’s accounting and reporting policies conform to GAAP, as well as general practices within the banking industry. Application of these principles requires management to make estimates, assumptions, and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions, and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements; accordingly, as this information changes, the financial statements may reflect different estimates, assumptions, and judgments. Certain policies inherently rely more extensively on the use of estimates, assumptions, and judgments and as such may have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported.
Our most significant accounting policies are described in Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Note 1 to our audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025, included in the Company’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 13, 2026.

Results of Operations - Nine months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025
Pending Merger with Eagle Financial Services, Inc.
On September 8, 2026, the Company and Eagle, parent company of Bank of Clarke, jointly announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, among other things at closing, Eagle will merge with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In the merger, each share of common stock, par value $2.50 per share, of Eagle, excluding certain specified shares owned by the Company, Eagle or their respective subsidiaries, that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the completion of the merger, will be converted into the right to receive 2.00 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Company, with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares in accordance with the terms of the definitive merger agreement. Following the merger, the Company is projected to have approximately $4.3 billion in assets and 23 banking offices. The transaction is expected to close during the first quarter of 2027, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including regulatory and shareholder approvals.
Overview
The Company reported net income of $20.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $5.3 million or 34.9% when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Adjusted for merger and acquisition expenses and a gain on sale of the Bearing Insurance investment unit recognized during the period, core net income (Non-GAAP) was $20.3 million, an increase of $4.9 million or 32.3%.
Diluted earnings per common share were $1.46 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to diluted earnings per common share of $1.07 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, representing a 36.4% increase. Adjusted for merger and acquisition expenses and a gain on sale of the Bearing Insurance investment unit recognized during the period, core earnings per diluted common share (Non-GAAP) increased over the same period from $1.07 to $1.43, an increase of 33.6%.
Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 increased $7.0 million or 15.7% compared to the same period of 2025, driven primarily by the increases in average balances and yields of the loan portfolio in combination with the decrease in rates of interest-bearing deposits. The annualized net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was 2.92% as compared to 2.66% for the same period in the prior year.
The Company recorded a $38 thousand recovery of provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to a $1.1 million provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Additional discussion of the provision for credit losses is included below under the heading Provision for Credit Losses.
Non-interest income increased $331 thousand or 19.9% during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same period of 2025. The increase was primarily driven by an $835 thousand gain recognized during the second quarter of 2026 as a result of the sale of Bearing Insurance in which the Company held an equity investment unit. This increase was partially offset by a $211 thousand decrease in bankers’ insurance commission due to the sale of the Bearing Insurance investment unit, a $173 thousand decline in the gain on sale of SBA 7(a) loans, a $101 decrease in swap fee income, and a $98 thousand decrease in mark-to-market adjustments on investments related to the Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan.
Non-interest expense increased $1.5 million or 5.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025 predominantly due to a $957 thousand or 6.0% increase in salaries and employee benefits, as a result of increases in incentive compensation, the impact of the annual salary merit increase and higher cost of the healthcare insurance benefits. Additionally, the period included merger and acquisition expenses of $332 thousand coupled with a $159 thousand or 2.1% increase in other expenses driven by higher state franchise tax and FDIC insurance, due to an increase in respective assessment bases. Core non-interest expense (Non-GAAP) increased $1.2 million or 4.6% during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, annualized non-interest expense to average assets was 1.53% compared to 1.52% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Adjusted for merger and acquisition expenses incurred during the period, annualized core non-interest expense to average assets (Non-GAAP) was 1.51%.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the efficiency ratio declined to 50.5% compared to 55.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The improvement in the efficiency ratio was due to a 15.9% growth in total revenue, which outpaced a 5.9% growth in non-interest expense over the period. Adjusted for merger and acquisition expenses and the gain on sale of the Bearing Insurance

Tax-equivalent net interest income is calculated by adding the tax benefit on certain securities and loans, whose interest is tax-exempt, to total interest income then subtracting total interest expense. The following table, “Tax-Equivalent Net Interest Income,” reconciles net interest income to tax-equivalent net interest income, which is a non-GAAP measure.

Tax-equivalent net interest income increased $7.0 million or 15.8% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase in fully tax-equivalent net interest income was driven by the increase in average balances and yields of the loan portfolio in combination with a decrease in the cost of interest-bearing deposits.
The net interest margin was 2.92% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, compared to 2.66% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The 26 basis point increase in net interest margin was due to a combination of a 25 basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities and an eight basis point increase in yields in interest-earning assets coupled with higher average loan balances.
The cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 3.16% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to 3.41% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Rates declined across all deposit categories, most notably in time deposits, money market accounts, and NOW deposit accounts, which declined 33 basis points, 27 basis points, and 18 basis points, respectively. Total cost of borrowings declined from 4.54% in the prior year period to 4.46% in the current year period, mainly as a result of an 11 basis point decline in the rate of Federal Home Loan Bank advances.
The loan portfolio’s yield for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was 5.51% compared to 5.42% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, as variable rate loans repriced at higher prevailing rates subsequent to the third quarter of 2025. Average loans increased $105.3 million between the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, which was primarily attributable to origination volume in the residential mortgage, commercial investor real estate and construction & development loan portfolios subsequent to September 30, 2025.
The yield on interest-bearing deposits due from banks for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was 3.73% compared to 4.46% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease of 73 basis points was due to a declining federal funds rate since September 30, 2025.

Interest Income
Interest income increased by $6.1 million or 7.2% to $90.3 million on a fully tax-equivalent basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to $84.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, driven by both an increase in rates and volume on interest-earning assets, primarily attributable to the Company’s loan portfolio.
Fully tax-equivalent interest income on loans increased $5.7 million or 7.5% as a result of increases in rates and volume. Average loans increased $105.3 million between the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, which was primarily attributable to origination volume in the residential mortgage, commercial investor real estate and construction & development loan portfolios subsequent to September 30, 2025.
Fully tax-equivalent interest income on investment securities increased $646 thousand or 18.2%, as a result of higher securities rates. The yield on investment securities increased to 2.46% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 as compared to 2.08% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.
Interest income on interest-bearing deposits in other banks decreased $264 thousand or 6.1% as a result of a 73 basis point decline in yield, which was directly related to a declining federal funds rate since September 30, 2025.

Interest Expense
Interest expense decreased $974 thousand to $38.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to $39.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to a decrease in rates on interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by an increase in volume of interest-bearing deposits. The decrease in rates on deposits was mainly a result of the repricing of the Company’s interest-bearing deposit accounts in conjunction with the decrease in federal funds benchmark interest rates that took place subsequent to September of 2025.
Provision for Credit Losses
The Company recorded a $38 thousand recovery of provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to a $1.1 million provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 that is directly attributable to the funded loan portfolio was $130 thousand, while unfunded commitments provision was a recovery of $168 thousand.
The provision for credit losses during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was primarily a result of changes in the composition and volume of the loan portfolio in combination with the impact of charge-offs of three commercial SBA 7(a) loans recorded during the second quarter of 2026, partially offset by the improving forecasted economic variables during the period. See “Asset Quality” below for additional information on the credit quality of the loan portfolio.
Non-interest Income
The Company’s recurring sources of non-interest income consist primarily of interchange income, gains on sale of government guaranteed loans, service charges on deposit accounts and insurance commissions. Generally speaking, loan fees are included in interest income on the loan portfolio and not reported as non-interest income.
The following table summarizes non-interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

N/M – Not meaningful
Non-interest income increased $331 thousand or 19.9% during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same period of 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to an $835 thousand gain as a result of the sale of Bearing Insurance in which the Company held an equity investment unit coupled with a $68 thousand increase in other charges and fees due to higher early termination fees on customers’ time deposits. These increases were partially offset by a $211 thousand decrease in bankers’ insurance commission due to the sale of Bearing Insurance investment unit, a $173 thousand decline in gain on sale of SBA 7(a) loans, due to lower sales volume, a $101 decline in swap fee income, and a $98 thousand decrease in mark-to-market adjustments on investments related to the Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan.

Non-interest expense increased $1.5 million or 5.9% during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily due to a $957 thousand increase in salaries and employee benefits, as a result of increases in incentive compensation tied to performance, the impact of the annual salary merit increase and higher cost of the healthcare insurance benefits. Incentive compensation accruals can fluctuate materially from period to period, based upon the Company’s financial performance and conditions measured against, among other evaluation criteria, our strategic plan and budget. At the end of each year, the ultimate determination of the incentive compensation is approved by the Board of Directors. During the period, the Company incurred $332 thousand in merger and acquisition expenses associated with the pending merger with Eagle. State franchise taxes and FDIC insurance increased $112 thousand and $52 thousand, respectively, due to an increase in respective assessment bases.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense increased $1.6 million or 37.1% to $5.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to $4.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Our effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was 22.2% compared to 22.0% for the same period ended September 30, 2025.

Results of Operations – Three Months Ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025
Overview
The Company reported net income of $7.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of $2.1 million or 39.5% when compared to $5.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. During the most recent quarter, the Company incurred $332 thousand of merger and acquisition expenses associated with the pending Eagle acquisition. Adjusting for these expenses, core net income (Non-GAAP) was $7.8 million, representing a 44.4% year-over-year increase.
Diluted earnings per common share were $0.53 for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to diluted earnings per common share of $0.38 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, an increase of 39.5%. Adjusted for merger and acquisition expenses recognized during the period, core earnings per diluted common share (Non-GAAP) increased over the same period from $0.38 to $0.55, an increase of 44.7%.
Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2026 increased $2.2 million or 14.0% to $17.8 million compared to $15.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, as a result of higher average balances and yields of loans coupled with the lower cost of interest-bearing deposits. During the same period, interest income grew $2.4 million or 8.1%, driven by higher interest income on loans, while interest expense increased by $0.2 million or 1.2%, predominantly due to higher interest expense on interest-bearing deposit categories. The annualized net interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was 2.91% compared to 2.72% for the same period in 2025.
The Company recorded a $318 thousand recovery of provision for credit losses for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to a provision expense of $356 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2025. Additional discussion of the provision for credit losses is included below under the heading Provision for Credit Losses.
Non-interest income decreased $385 thousand or 59.0% during the third quarter of 2026 compared to the third quarter of 2025. The main drivers of this decrease were a $141 thousand decrease in mark-to-market adjustments on investments related to the Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan, a $101 thousand decrease in swap fee income, an $82 thousand decrease in the gain on sale of SBA 7(a) loans, and a $58 thousand decrease in bankers’ insurance commission due to a sale of Bearing Insurance investment unit during the second quarter of 2026.
Non-interest expense decreased $355 thousand or 3.9% during the third quarter of 2026 compared to the third quarter of 2025, primarily resulting from a $542 thousand decrease in salaries and employee benefits due to a lower incentive compensation accrual, a decrease in mark-to-market adjustments on the Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan and higher commercial loan originations costs due to higher loan origination volume since the prior year period. These decreases were partially offset by the previously mentioned merger and acquisition expenses, incurred during the most recent quarter, related to the pending Eagle acquisition. Core non-interest expense (Non-GAAP) decreased $687 thousand or 7.6% during the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025.
For the three months ended September 30, 2026, annualized non-interest expense to average assets was 1.41% compared to 1.57% for the three months ended September 30, 2025. This decrease was due to a decline in non-interest expense in combination with the growth in average assets during the period. Adjusted for merger and acquisition expenses incurred during the most recent quarter, annualized core non-interest expense to average assets (Non-GAAP) was 1.36%.
For the three months ended September 30, 2026, the efficiency ratio declined to 48.1% compared to 55.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The improvement in the efficiency ratio was due to an 11.1% growth in total revenue coupled with a 3.9% decrease in non-interest expense over the period. Adjusted for merger and acquisition expenses incurred during the most recent quarter, core efficiency ratio (Non-GAAP) was 46.2%.
Annualized ROAA for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 was 1.23% and 0.94%, respectively. Annualized ROAE for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 was 10.78% and 8.31%, respectively. Adjusted for the merger and acquisition expenses incurred during the most recent quarter, annualized core ROAA (Non-GAAP) and annualized core ROAE (Non-GAAP) were 1.27% and 11.15%, respectively.

Tax-equivalent net interest income is calculated by adding the tax benefit on certain securities and loans, whose interest is tax-exempt, to total interest income then subtracting total interest expense. The following table, “Tax-Equivalent Net Interest Income,” reconciles net interest income to tax-equivalent net interest income, which is a non-GAAP measure.

(1) Tax benefit was calculated using the federal statutory tax rate of 21%.
Tax-equivalent net interest income increased $2.2 million or 14.1% for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2025, driven primarily by higher average balances and yields of the loan portfolio coupled with the lower rates on interest-bearing deposits.
The net interest margin was 2.91% for the three months ended September 30, 2026, compared to 2.72% for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The 19 basis point increase in net interest margin was primarily due to an 18 basis point reduction in rates on interest-bearing deposits and a 10 basis point increase in yields on the Company’s loans. In addition, average loans increased $99.7 million between the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, which was primarily attributable to origination volume in the residential mortgage, commercial investor real estate and construction & development loan portfolios subsequent to September 30, 2025.
The loan portfolio’s yield for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was 5.54% compared to 5.44% for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The increase of 10 basis points was primarily attributable to an increase in yields on the Company’s residential mortgage and commercial real estate portfolios along with higher average loan balances.
The yield on interest-bearing deposits due from banks for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was 3.75% compared to 4.44% for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease of 69 basis points was directly attributable to the declining federal funds rate over the preceding twelve months.
The cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 3.20% for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to 3.37% for the three months ended September 30, 2025. Rates declined across all deposit categories, most notably in time deposits, money market accounts, and NOW accounts, which declined by 29 basis points, 20 basis points, and nine basis points, respectively.

Interest Income
Interest income increased $2.4 million or 8.2% to $31.3 million on a fully tax-equivalent basis for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to $29.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, driven primarily by higher average balances and yields on the Company’s loan portfolio.
Fully tax-equivalent interest income on loans increased $1.9 million or 7.2% as a result of volume and rates increases. Average loans increased $99.7 million between the three months ended September 30, 2026 and the three months ended September 30, 2025, which was primarily attributable to origination volume in the residential mortgage, commercial investor real estate and construction & development loan portfolios subsequent to September 30, 2025.
Fully tax-equivalent interest income on investment securities increased $324 thousand or 27.6% primarily as a result of an increase in rates. The yield on investment securities increased to 2.60% for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from 2.10% for the three months ended September 30, 2025.
Interest income on interest-bearing deposits in other banks increased $158 thousand or 10.0% as a result of higher average balances, partially offset by lower yield. Average balances of interest-bearing deposits in other banks increased by $42.8 million or 30.3% to

Table of Contents
$184.1 million between September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2026, while the yield decreased from 4.44% to 3.75% during the same period.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased $163 thousand or 1.2% to $13.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to $13.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to an increase in volume of interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by a decrease in rates on interest-bearing deposits. The decrease in rates on deposits was mainly a result of the repricing of the Company’s deposit accounts in conjunction with the decrease in federal funds benchmark interest rates that took place subsequent to September of 2025.
Provision for Credit Losses
The Company recorded a $318 thousand recovery of provision for credit losses for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to a provision expense of $356 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The provision for credit losses for the three months ended September 30, 2026 that is directly attributable to the funded loan portfolio was a recovery of $397 thousand, while provision for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments was an expense of $79 thousand.
The recovery of provision for credit losses on funded loans during the most recent quarter reflected a change in the loan portfolio mix in combination with the improved forecasts of unemployment rate and gross domestic product. See “Asset Quality” section below for additional information on the credit quality of the loan portfolio.

N/M – Not meaningful
Non-interest income was $268 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to $653 thousand for the same period in the prior year. The main drivers of this $385 thousand decrease were a $141 thousand decrease in mark-to-market adjustments on investments related to the Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan, a $101 thousand decrease in swap fee income, an $82 thousand decrease in the gain on sale of SBA 7(a) loans due to lower sales volume, and a $58 thousand decrease in bankers’ insurance commission due to the sale of Bearing Insurance investment unit during the second quarter of 2026.

Non-interest expense decreased $355 thousand or 3.9% during the third quarter of 2026 compared to the third quarter of 2025, primarily resulting from a $542 thousand decrease in salaries and employee benefits due to a lower incentive compensation accrual, a decrease in mark-to-market adjustments on the Company’s non-qualified deferred compensation plan and higher commercial loan origination costs due to higher loan origination volume since the prior year period. These decreases were partially offset by the previously mentioned merger and acquisition expenses, incurred during the most recent quarter, related to the pending acquisition of Eagle.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense increased $695 thousand to $2.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was 22.2% compared to 21.3% for the same period ended September 30, 2025.

Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
Assets, Liabilities, and Shareholders’ Equity
The Company’s total assets increased $104.3 million or 4.5% to $2.44 billion at September 30, 2026 compared to $2.33 billion at December 31, 2025. The increase in total assets was predominantly attributable to a $62.0 million increase in interest-bearing deposits in banks, along with increases in the Company’s loan and available-for-sale investment securities portfolios, which grew by $35.7 million and $9.6 million, respectively. All other asset categories stayed relatively unchanged since December 31, 2025.
The Company’s total liabilities increased $92.8 million or 4.5% to $2.16 billion at September 30, 2026 compared to $2.07 billion at December 31, 2025. The increase in total liabilities was due to a $92.0 million increase in total deposits. Interest-bearing deposits grew $53.0 million, while non-interest bearing deposits increased $38.9 million during the period.
Shareholders’ equity increased $11.5 million or 4.3% to $277.1 million at September 30, 2026 compared to $265.6 million at December 31, 2025. The increase in shareholders’ equity was primarily attributable to net income earned during the current year, partially offset by an increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss, resulting from a decrease in the market value of our available-for-sale investment portfolio, along with cash dividends paid and a reduction of additional paid-in capital due to the Company’s share repurchases during the nine months ended September 30, 2026. Book value per share was $19.64 as of September 30, 2026 compared to $18.69 as of December 31, 2025, an increase of 5.1%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company repurchased 103,507 shares of its common stock at a weighted average price of $19.69.
Investment Securities
The Company maintains a primarily fixed income investment securities portfolio that had a total carrying value of $219.2 million at September 30, 2026 and $212.3 million at December 31, 2025. The investment portfolio provides liquidity, interest income, credit risk diversification, means to manage interest rate sensitivity and collateral for secured public funds and secured credit lines. Investment securities are classified as available-for-sale or held-to-maturity based on management’s investment strategy and management’s assessment of the intent and ability to hold the securities until maturity. Investment securities that we may sell prior to maturity in response to changes in management’s investment strategy, liquidity needs, interest rate risk profile or for other reasons are classified as available-for-sale. The Company also had restricted stock and equity securities within its investment securities portfolio with total carrying values of $7.7 million and $3.0 million, respectively, at September 30, 2026 compared to $7.6 million and $2.8 million, respectively, at December 31, 2025.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company purchased 24 agency mortgage-backed fixed income securities and one U.S. Treasury security, designated as available-for-sale, with the total carrying amount of $51.2 million and a weighted average purchase yield of 4.40%. The Company did not sell any fixed income investment securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2026. The Company had $40.0 million in maturities and principal repayments on securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2026, which were comprised of $19.2 million of U.S. agency mortgage-backed securities, $13.3 million of U.S. Treasuries, $4.5 million of U.S. agency collateralized mortgage obligation securities, $2.0 million of U.S. government and federal agencies securities, and $1.0 million of corporate securities.

Loan Portfolio
Gross loans, net of unearned income, increased $35.7 million to $2.01 billion as of September 30, 2026 compared to $1.98 billion as of December 31, 2025. The increase in loans from December 31, 2025, was primarily attributable to growth in commercial real estate and residential real estate loans. The Company continues to maintain its disciplined underwriting standards while prudently pursuing loan growth opportunities that provide acceptable risk-adjusted returns.
The following table presents the Company’s composition of loans held for investment in dollar amounts and as a percentage of total gross loans as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Asset Quality
The Company maintains policies and procedures to promote sound underwriting and to mitigate credit risk. The Chief Credit Officer is responsible for establishing credit risk policies and procedures, including underwriting and hold guidelines and credit approval authority, and monitoring credit exposure and performance of the Company’s lending-related transactions.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2026, the Company designated one commercial business SBA 7(a) loan as nonaccrual. As of September 30, 2026, the total outstanding principal amount of the loan was $267 thousand and is fully guaranteed by the SBA. The Company charged off the unguaranteed portion of the loan, in the total amount of $89 thousand, during the second quarter of 2026 and submitted a reimbursement claim to the SBA for the guaranteed portion. We expect the SBA to pay its guarantee and resolve our one nonaccruing loan. A loan is placed on nonaccrual status when (i) the Company is advised by the borrower that scheduled principal or interest payments cannot be met, (ii) when management’s best judgment indicates that payment in full of principal and interest can no longer be expected, or (iii) when any such loan or obligation becomes delinquent for 90 days, unless it is both well-secured and in the process of collection.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company charged off three commercial SBA 7(a) loans in the total amount of $172 thousand. These charge-offs represented the unguaranteed portions of the loans.
The following table summarizes the Company’s asset quality as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Allowance for Loan Credit Losses
Refer to the discussion in Note 1 of the audited financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2025 contained in the Company’s 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K for management’s approach to estimating the allowance for loan credit losses.
The Company recorded $1 thousand of net recoveries and $136 thousand of net charge-offs during the three months ended and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively. The Company recorded $1 thousand and $2 thousand of net recoveries during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. At September 30, 2026, the allowance for loan credit losses was $19.8 million or 0.98% of outstanding loans, net of unearned income, compared to $19.8 million or 1.00% of outstanding loans, net of unearned income, at December 31, 2025. Management believes the current allowance for credit losses is appropriate given the composition and performance of the loan portfolio.

Management believes that the allowance for loan credit losses is adequate to absorb lifetime expected credit losses inherent in the portfolio as of September 30, 2026. There can be no assurance, however, that adjustments to the provision for (recovery of) credit losses will not be required in the future. Changes in the economic assumptions underlying management’s estimates and judgments; adverse developments in the economy, on a national basis or in the Company’s market area; or changes in the circumstances of particular borrowers are criteria that could change and make adjustments to the provision for (recovery of) credit losses necessary.

The total amount of our uninsured deposits (deposits in excess of $250,000, as calculated in accordance with FDIC regulations) was estimated at $960.7 million at September 30, 2026 and $853.4 million at December 31, 2025. Included in these amounts were $200.3 million and $161.8 million of public fund deposits that are collateralized as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Deposits that were not insured or not collateralized represented 36.8% and 35.1% of total deposits at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Capital Resources
The Company is a bank holding company with less than $3 billion in assets and does not (i) have significant off balance sheet exposure, (ii) engage in significant non-banking activities, or (iii) have a material amount of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”). As a result, the Company qualifies as a small bank holding company under the Federal Reserve’s Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement and is currently not subject to consolidated regulatory capital requirements.
The Bank is subject to capital adequacy standards adopted by the Federal Reserve, including the capital rules that implemented the Basel III regulatory capital reforms developed by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision.

Table of Contents
Note 11 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q, contains additional discussion and analysis regarding the Company and Bank’s regulatory capital requirements.
Shareholders’ equity increased $11.5 million or 4.3% to $277.1 million at September 30, 2026 compared to $265.6 million at December 31, 2025. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the increase in shareholders’ equity was primarily attributable to a $16.7 million increase in retained earnings, partially offset by a $3.6 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Company’s available-for-sale securities coupled with a $1.6 million decrease in additional paid-in capital due to the Company’s share repurchases. Book value per share was $19.64 as of September 30, 2026 compared to $18.69 as of December 31, 2025.
In August of 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the extension of the Company’s stock repurchase program that was originally adopted in August of 2021. Under the stock repurchase program, the Company may repurchase up to 700,000 shares of its common stock, par value of $0.01 per share, or approximately 5% of its outstanding shares of common stock. The stock repurchase program will expire on August 31, 2027, or earlier if all the authorized shares have been repurchased. The Company did not repurchase any shares of its outstanding common stock during the three months ended September 30, 2026 and repurchased 103,507 shares of its outstanding common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2026.
Liquidity
Liquidity reflects a financial institution’s ability to fund assets and meet current and future financial obligations. Liquidity is essential in all banks to meet customer withdrawals, compensate for balance sheet fluctuations, and provide funds for growth. Monitoring and managing liquidity measurements is critical in developing prudent and effective balance sheet management. Management conducts liquidity stress testing on a quarterly basis to prepare for unexpected adverse scenarios and contemporaneously develops mitigating strategies to reduce losses in the event of an economic downturn.
The Company’s principal source of liquidity and funding is its deposit base. The level of deposits necessary to support the Company’s lending and investment activities is determined through monitoring loan demand.
In addition to the liquidity provided by balance sheet cash flows, the Company supplements its liquidity with additional sources such as secured borrowing credit lines with the FHLB and the Federal Reserve Bank. Specifically, the Company has pledged a portion of its commercial real estate and residential real estate loan portfolios to the FHLB and commercial loans to the Federal Reserve Bank. Based on collateral pledged as of September 30, 2026, the remaining FHLB available borrowing capacity was $437.2 million. Additional borrowing capacity with the Federal Reserve Bank was approximately $112.0 million as of September 30, 2026.
At September 30, 2026, the Company had three outstanding FHLB advances totaling $56.0 million with interest rates ranging from 3.61% to 4.07%.
Total liquidity, defined as cash and cash equivalents, unencumbered securities at fair value, and available secured borrowing capacity, was $809.9 million at September 30, 2026 compared to $827.0 million at December 31, 2025.
In addition to available secured borrowing capacity, the Company had available federal funds lines with correspondent banks of $110.0 million at September 30, 2026.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The Company enters into certain off-balance sheet arrangements in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These off-balance sheet arrangements include commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit and financial guarantees which would impact the Company’s liquidity and capital resources to the extent customers accept and/or use these commitments. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. With the exception of these off-balance sheet arrangements, the Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on the Company’s financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources, that is material to investors. For further information, see Note 7 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, included in Item 1 of this Form 10-Q, for further discussion of the nature, business purpose and elements of risk involved with these off-balance sheet arrangements.

Not required for smaller reporting companies.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2026. Based on their evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and regulations are designed and operating in an effective manner.
No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the third fiscal quarter of 2026 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the following risk factors represent material updates and additions to the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the SEC on March 13, 2026. Additional risks not presently known, or that are currently deemed immaterial, may also adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations. Except as described below, there have been no material changes in the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
Risks Related to the Proposed Merger with Eagle
Because the exchange ratio is fixed, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued in the proposed transaction will not be adjusted for changes in the market price of the Company’s or Eagle’s common stock.
Upon completion of the proposed transaction, each outstanding share of Eagle common stock, except for certain specified shares, will be converted into the right to receive 2.00 shares of the Company’s common stock. There will be no adjustment to the merger consideration based upon changes in the market price of the Company’s common stock or Eagle’s common stock prior to the time the proposed transaction is completed, and the merger agreement cannot be terminated due to a change in the price of the Company’s common stock or Eagle’s common stock. Accordingly, the value of the merger consideration at closing may differ significantly from its value on the date the merger agreement was signed or on the dates of the shareholder meetings. Stock price changes may result from a variety of factors, including general market and economic conditions, such as inflation, trade policies and tariffs, volatility in capital markets, volatility in real estate markets, interest and currency rate fluctuations, labor availability, supply chain disruptions, global pandemics and public health crises and responses thereto, weather catastrophes and geopolitical instability, including shutdowns and threats of shutdowns of the U.S. federal government, political instability and political violence, changes in each company’s respective businesses, operations and prospects, and regulatory considerations, among other things. Many of these factors are beyond the control of the Company and Eagle.
The dilution caused by the issuance of shares of the Company’s common stock in connection with the proposed transaction may adversely affect the market price of the Company’s common stock.
In connection with the proposed transaction, the Company expects to issue approximately 10,823,230 shares of its common stock to Eagle shareholders (assuming that all holders of unvested Eagle restricted stock awards elect to receive shares of the Company’s common
60
Table of Contents
stock). The dilution caused by the issuance of these new shares may result in fluctuations in the market price of the Company’s common stock, including a stock price decrease.
The Company’s shareholders will have a reduced ownership and voting interest in the Company after the proposed transaction and will exercise less influence over management.
The Company’s shareholders currently have the right to vote for the election of directors and on other matters affecting the Company. Upon completion of the proposed transaction, each of the Company’s shareholders will hold a smaller percentage ownership of the combined company than such shareholder held prior to the proposed transaction. Based on shares outstanding as of June 30, 2026, and assuming that all holders of unvested restricted stock awards elect to receive shares of the Company’s common stock, it is currently expected that the Company’s existing shareholders as a group will own approximately 56.6% of the combined company’s common stock and former Eagle shareholders as a group will own approximately 43.4%. As a result, the Company’s existing shareholders will have less influence on the management and policies of the combined company than they now have on the management and policies of the Company.
The proposed transaction will result in changes to the boards of directors of the Company and the Bank.
Upon completion of the proposed transaction, the boards of directors of the Company and the Bank will each consist of 12 directors, including six directors designated by Eagle, including Eagle’s current chair, and six directors designated by the Company, with five directors designated by each group being independent under Nasdaq standards. This new composition of the boards of directors may affect the future decisions of the Company and the Bank.
Combining the Company and Eagle may be more difficult, costly or time-consuming than expected, and the anticipated benefits and cost savings of the proposed transaction may not be realized.
The success of the proposed transaction will depend on, among other things, the combined company’s ability to combine the businesses of the Company and Eagle. If the combined company is not able to successfully achieve this objective, the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction may not be realized fully, or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected. In addition, the actual cost savings and anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction could be less than anticipated, and integration may result in additional unforeseen expenses.
The Company and Eagle have operated and, until the completion of the proposed transaction, will continue to operate, independently. A successful integration of the Company’s business and Eagle’s business will depend on the ability to consolidate operations, corporate cultures, systems and procedures and to eliminate redundancies and costs. It is possible that the integration process could result in difficulties, such as the loss of key employees, the disruption of the combined company’s ongoing businesses, the inability to maintain and increase competitive presence, loan and deposit attrition, customer loss and revenue loss, additional costs or unexpected problems with operations, personnel, technology and credit, or inconsistencies in technologies, standards, controls, procedures and policies that adversely affect the combined company’s ability to maintain relationships with clients, customers, depositors and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits and cost savings of the proposed transaction. The loss of key employees could have an adverse effect on the combined company’s financial results and the value of its common stock. If the combined company experiences difficulties with the integration process, the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction may not be realized fully, or at all, or may take longer to realize than expected. As with any merger of financial institutions, there also may be business disruptions that cause current customers to move their accounts from Eagle or the Company to competing financial institutions. Integration efforts between the two companies will also divert management attention and resources, and any problems with the assimilation of new operations, systems, sites or personnel could divert resources from banking operations. Additionally, general market and economic conditions or governmental actions affecting the financial industry generally may inhibit the successful integration of Eagle and the Company. These integration matters could have an adverse effect on each of Eagle and the Company during this transition period and for an undetermined period after consummation of the proposed transaction.
Combining the Company and Eagle may fail to realize the anticipated synergies of the proposed transaction.
The success of the proposed transaction will depend, in part, on the ability to realize the anticipated expense synergies and revenue synergies from combining the businesses of the Company and Eagle. To realize the anticipated synergies from the proposed transaction, the Company and Eagle must integrate and combine their businesses in a manner that permits those synergies to be realized, without adversely affecting current revenues and future growth. If the Company and Eagle are not able to successfully achieve these objectives, the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer to realize than expected. In

addition, the actual expense synergies of the proposed transaction could be less than anticipated, and integration may result in additional and unforeseen delays and expenses.
An inability to realize the full extent of the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction, as well as any delays encountered in the integration process, could have an adverse effect upon the revenues, levels of expenses and operating results of the combined company, which may adversely affect the value of the combined company’s common stock after the completion of the proposed transaction.
The Company and Eagle have incurred, and the combined company following the closing of the proposed transaction expects to incur, substantial expenses related to the proposed transaction and integration.
The Company and Eagle have incurred and expect to incur significant non-recurring costs associated with the proposed transaction. These costs include legal, financial advisory, accounting, consulting and other advisory fees, employee benefit-related costs, public company filing fees and other regulatory fees, printing costs and other related costs. Some of these costs are payable by either the Company or Eagle regardless of whether the proposed transaction is completed and may adversely impact the Company’s and Eagle’s earnings.
The combined company expects to incur substantial expenses in connection with consummation of the proposed transaction and combining the business, operations, networks, systems, technologies, policies and procedures of the two companies, including facilities and systems consolidation costs and employment-related costs. The Company and Eagle may also incur additional costs to retain key employees. Although the Company and Eagle have assumed that a certain level of transaction and combination expenses would be incurred, there are a number of factors beyond their control that could affect the total amount or the timing of their combination expenses, and additional unanticipated costs may be incurred in the combination of the businesses of the Company and Eagle. Many of the expenses that will be incurred, by their nature, are difficult to estimate accurately at the present time. Due to these factors, the transaction and combination expenses associated with the proposed transaction could, particularly in the near term, exceed the savings that the combined company expects to achieve from the elimination of duplicative expenses and the realization of economies of scale and cost savings related to the combination of the businesses following the consummation of the proposed transaction. As a result of these expenses, both the Company and Eagle expect to take charges against their earnings before and after the completion of the proposed transaction. The charges taken in connection with the proposed transaction are expected to be significant, although the aggregate amount and timing of such charges are uncertain at present. There can be no assurance that the anticipated benefits and cost savings related to the integration of the businesses will be realized to offset these transaction and integration expenses over time.
Regulatory approvals may not be received, may take longer than expected or may impose conditions that are not presently anticipated, cannot be met, or that could have an adverse effect on the combined company following the consummation of the proposed transaction.
Before the proposed transaction may be completed, various approvals, consents, waivers, and/or non-objections must be obtained from, or notices must be filed with, the Federal Reserve, the Virginia Bureau of Financial Institutions and other regulatory authorities in the United States. In determining whether to grant these approvals, the applicable regulatory authorities consider a variety of factors, including the regulatory standing of each party. These approvals could be delayed or not obtained at all, including due to an adverse development in either party’s regulatory standing or in any other factors considered by regulators in granting such approvals; governmental, political or community group inquiries, investigations or opposition; or changes in legislation or the political or regulatory environment generally.
The approvals that are granted may impose terms and conditions, limitations, obligations or costs, or place restrictions on the conduct of the combined company’s business following the proposed transaction or require changes to the terms of the proposed transaction. There can be no assurance that regulators will not impose any such conditions, limitations, obligations or restrictions and that such conditions, limitations, obligations or restrictions will not have the effect of delaying the completion of the proposed transaction, imposing additional material costs on or materially limiting the revenues of the combined company following the proposed transaction or otherwise reducing the anticipated benefits of the proposed transaction if the proposed transaction were consummated successfully within the expected timeframe. In addition, there can be no assurance that any such conditions, terms, obligations or restrictions will not result in the delay or abandonment of the proposed transaction. The completion of the proposed transaction is conditioned on the receipt of the requisite regulatory approvals without the imposition of any condition or restriction that would reasonably be expected to be materially burdensome to the business, operations, capital, financial condition or results of operations of the Company or Eagle following the closing (a “burdensome condition”) and the expiration of all statutory waiting periods. Additionally, the completion of the proposed transaction is conditioned on the absence of certain laws, orders, injunctions or decrees issued by any court or governmental entity of
62
Table of Contents
competent jurisdiction that would prevent, prohibit or make illegal the consummation of the proposed transaction or any of the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement.
If the consummation of the proposed transaction is delayed, including by a delay in receipt of necessary regulatory approvals, a denial of a regulatory application, or the imposition of a burdensome condition, the ongoing business and financial results of each company may also be adversely affected.
Failure to complete the proposed transaction could negatively affect the share prices, future business and financial results of the Company and Eagle.
The completion of the proposed transaction is subject to a number of customary conditions which must be fulfilled in order to complete the proposed transaction. These conditions to the consummation of the proposed transaction may not be fulfilled and, accordingly, the proposed transaction may not be completed. In addition, if the proposed transaction is not completed by September 30, 2027, either the Company or Eagle may choose to terminate the merger agreement at any time after that date if the failure to consummate the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement is not caused by any breach of the merger agreement by the party electing to terminate the merger agreement, before or after shareholder approval. The Company and Eagle may elect to terminate the merger agreement in other circumstances as well. If the merger agreement is terminated under certain circumstances, either the Company or Eagle may be required to pay a termination fee of $10.1 million to the other party.
If the proposed transaction is not consummated, the ongoing business and financial results of each company may be adversely affected and each company will be subject to risks, including significant declines in its share price to the extent that the current market prices reflect an assumption by the market that the proposed transaction will be completed, litigation related to any failure to complete the proposed transaction, and negative reactions from their respective customers and employees. If the consummation of the proposed transaction is delayed, including by the receipt of a competing acquisition proposal, the business, financial condition and results of operations of each company may be adversely affected.
In addition, each company has incurred and will incur substantial expenses in connection with the negotiation and completion of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement. If the proposed transaction is not completed, the companies would have to recognize these expenses without realizing the expected benefits of the proposed transaction. Any of the foregoing, or other risks arising in connection with the failure of or delay in consummating the proposed transaction, including the diversion of management attention from pursuing other opportunities and the constraints in the merger agreement on the ability to make significant changes to each company’s ongoing business during the pendency of the proposed transaction, could have an adverse effect on each company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Additionally, the Company’s or Eagle’s business may have been adversely impacted by the failure to pursue other beneficial opportunities due to the focus of management on the proposed transaction, without realizing any of the anticipated benefits of completing the proposed transaction, and the market price of the Company’s common stock or Eagle’s common stock might decline to the extent that the current market price reflects a market assumption that the proposed transaction will be completed. If the merger agreement is terminated and a company’s board of directors seeks another merger or business combination, such company’s shareholders cannot be certain that such company will be able to find a party willing to engage in a transaction on more attractive terms than the proposed transaction.
The Company will be subject to business uncertainties and contractual restrictions while the proposed transaction is pending.
Uncertainty about the effect of the proposed transaction on counterparties to contracts, employees, customers (including depositors and borrowers), suppliers, vendors and other parties may have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. These uncertainties may impair the Company’s ability to attract, retain and motivate key personnel and customers pending the consummation of the proposed transaction, and could cause those who deal with the Company to seek to change existing business relationships with the Company or fail to extend an existing relationship. In addition, competitors may target the Company’s existing customers by highlighting potential uncertainties and integration difficulties that may result from the proposed transaction.
The pursuit of the proposed transaction and the preparation for the integration of the two companies may place a significant burden on the Company’s management and internal resources. In addition, the merger agreement restricts the Company from taking certain actions without Eagle’s consent while the proposed transaction is pending. These restrictions could have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations.

Table of Contents
The merger agreement contains provisions that may discourage other companies from pursuing, announcing or submitting a business combination proposal to the Company that might result in greater value to the Company’s shareholders.
The merger agreement generally prohibits the Company from soliciting, or, subject to certain exceptions, entering into discussions with any third party regarding, any acquisition proposal or offers for competing transactions. If the merger agreement is terminated under certain circumstances, the Company may be required to pay Eagle a termination fee of $10.1 million. The Company also has an unqualified obligation to submit the issuance of shares of its common stock in connection with the proposed transaction to a vote of its shareholders, even if the Company receives an unsolicited proposal that its board of directors believes is superior to the proposed transaction. In addition, each member of the Company’s board of directors and certain of its officers, in their capacities as shareholders, have entered into voting agreements that require them, among other things, to vote their shares in favor of the share issuance and against alternative transactions, subject to certain exceptions. These provisions could discourage a potential third party from pursuing, announcing or submitting a business combination proposal that might result in greater value to the Company’s shareholders than the proposed transaction.
Litigation relating to the proposed transaction could result in significant costs, management distraction, and/or a delay of or injunction against the proposed transaction, and/or otherwise negatively impact the business and operations of the Company and Eagle.
While Eagle and the Company believe that any claims that may be asserted by purported shareholder plaintiffs related to the proposed transaction would be without merit, the results of any such potential legal proceedings are difficult to predict and could delay or prevent the proposed transaction from being completed in a timely manner. The existence of litigation related to the proposed transaction could affect the likelihood of obtaining the required approvals from shareholders of Eagle and the Company. Moreover, any litigation could be time-consuming and expensive and divert the attention of management of Eagle and the Company away from their regular business. Further, any lawsuit adversely resolved against Eagle, the Company or members of the Eagle or Company boards of directors could have an adverse effect on each party’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
If any action remains unresolved, it could prevent or delay the completion of the proposed transaction. One of the conditions to the consummation of the proposed transaction is that no law, order, injunction or decree issued by any court or governmental entity of competent jurisdiction that would restrict, prohibit or make illegal the completion of the proposed transaction or any of the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement be in effect. Consequently, if a settlement or other resolution is not reached in any lawsuit that is filed or any regulatory proceeding and a claimant secures injunctive or other relief or a regulatory authority issues an order or other directive restricting, prohibiting or making illegal the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the merger agreement (including the proposed transaction), then such injunctive or other relief may delay or prevent the proposed transaction from becoming effective in a timely manner or at all and could result in significant costs to the Company and/or Eagle, including any cost associated with the indemnification of directors and officers of each company.
Interest rate volatility may adversely impact the fair value adjustments of investments and loans acquired in the proposed transaction.
Upon the closing of the proposed transaction, the combined company will need to adjust the fair value of Eagle’s investment and loan portfolios. Volatility in the interest rate environment could have the effect of increasing the magnitude of the purchase accounting marks relating to such fair value adjustments, thereby increasing initial tangible book value dilution, extending the tangible book value earn-back period, and negatively impacting the combined company’s capital ratios, which may result in the combined company taking steps to strengthen its capital position.
