LOB corrects cash flow classifications while showing balance sheet growth.
Live Oak Bancshares is restating prior quarterly cash flow statements to reclassify proceeds from the sale of loan participations between operating and investing activities and to adjust related non‑cash disclosures. This type of correction affects presentation rather than reported earnings or capital, so it primarily improves accuracy and comparability of historical cash flow information.

Note 1. Basis of Presentation
Nature of Operations
Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries including Live Oak Banking Company, the “Company”) is a bank holding company headquartered in Wilmington, North Carolina incorporated under the laws of the State of North Carolina in December 2008. The Company conducts business operations primarily through its commercial bank subsidiary, Live Oak Banking Company (the “Bank”). The Bank was organized and incorporated under the laws of the State of North Carolina on February 25, 2008 and commenced operations on May 12, 2008. The Bank specializes in providing lending and deposit related services to small businesses nationwide. A significant portion of the loans originated by the Bank are partially guaranteed by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) under the 7(a) Loan Program and the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (“USDA”) Rural Energy for America Program (“REAP”), Water and Environmental Program (“WEP”), Business & Industry (“B&I”) and Community Facilities loan programs. These loans are to small businesses and professionals with what the Bank believes are lower risk characteristics. Industries, or “verticals,” on which the Bank focuses its lending efforts are carefully selected. The Bank also lends more broadly to select borrowers outside of those verticals.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company’s wholly owned material subsidiaries are the Bank, Government Loan Solutions, Inc. (“GLS”), Live Oak Grove, LLC (“Grove”), and Live Oak Ventures, Inc. (“Live Oak Ventures”). GLS is a management and technology consulting firm that advises and offers solutions and services to participants in the government guaranteed lending sector. GLS primarily provides services in connection with the settlement, accounting, and securitization processes for government guaranteed loans, including loans originated under the SBA 7(a) loan programs and USDA guaranteed loans. The Grove provides Company employees and business visitors with on-site dining at the Company's Wilmington, North Carolina headquarters. Live Oak Ventures’ purpose is investing in businesses that align with the Company's strategic initiative to be a leader in financial technology. Canapi Advisors, LLC (“Canapi Advisors”) was a wholly owned subsidiary providing investment advisory services to a series of funds (the “Canapi Funds”) focused on providing venture capital to new and emerging financial technology companies. During the third quarter of 2024, the Canapi Funds were restructured and Canapi Advisors voluntarily withdrew as an investment advisor to the funds. Canapi Advisors was subsequently dissolved in the fourth quarter of 2024. During the fourth quarter of 2024, Live Oak Ventures consolidated its investment in Synply, Inc. (“Synply”) as a result of its controlling interest in that entity. Synply is a cloud-based technology platform designed to simplify the loan syndication process for financial institutions. The non-controlling interest in Synply is disclosed according to the Company’s consolidation policy.
The Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries are Live Oak Number One, Inc., Live Oak Clean Energy Financing LLC (“LOCEF”), Live Oak Private Wealth, LLC (“Live Oak Private Wealth”) and Tiburon Land Holdings, LLC (“TLH”). Live Oak Number One, Inc. holds properties foreclosed on by the Bank. LOCEF provides financing to entities for renewable energy applications. Live Oak Private Wealth provides high-net-worth individuals and families with strategic wealth and investment management services. TLH holds land adjacent to the Bank's headquarters consisting of wetlands and other protected property for the use and enjoyment of the Bank's employees and customers.
The Company generates revenue primarily from net interest income and secondarily through the origination and sale of government guaranteed loans. Income from the retention of loans is comprised principally of interest income. Income from the sale of loans is comprised of loan servicing revenue and revaluation of related servicing rights along with net gains on sales of loans. Offsetting these revenues are the cost of funding sources, provision for credit losses, any costs related to foreclosed assets and other operating costs such as salaries and employee benefits, travel, professional services, advertising and marketing and tax expense. The Company also has less routinely generated gains and losses arising from its financial technology investments.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
General
In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been included, and all intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2024 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 17, 2025 (SEC File No. 001-37497) (the “2024 Form 10-K/A”). A summary description of the significant accounting policies followed by the Company is set forth in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K/A. These Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes in the Company's 2024 Form 10-K/A.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States (“U.S.”) generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Amounts in all tables in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been presented in thousands, except percentage, time period, share and per share data or where otherwise indicated.
Business Segments
Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the President of Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. and the Bank. In determining the appropriateness of the segment definition, the Company considers the components of the business about which financial information is available and components the chief operating decision maker regularly evaluates relative to resource allocation and performance assessment.
Management has determined that the Company has one
Significant segment expenses are reported on the consolidated statements of income.
Use of Estimates
In preparing unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect 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. The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) is a material estimate that is particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term.

Changes in Accounting Estimates
During the third quarter of 2025, the Company made enhancements to the quantitative and qualitative components of the ACL estimate. Within the quantitative component, the Company updated the method used to forecast the probability of default during a reasonable and supportable forecast period. The Company changed the economic variable used in forecasting default rates from the national unemployment rate to the Baa-rated Corporate Bond Yield utilizing a logistic regression and changed the default rate forecast starting point from 36 month historical default performance to the most recent 12 month trailing average default performance. These changes were based on a statistical analysis of historical defaults and macroeconomic factors. In conjunction with the enhancements made to the probability of default methodology, the Company made enhancements to the qualitative framework to introduce weighting of quantifiable credit metrics used in the qualitative ACL estimate to put more weight on the metrics that are the strongest indicators of credit risk in the portfolio. The cumulative effect of these changes was not material.
During the second quarter of 2024, the Company made enhancements to the qualitative framework of the ACL. The enhanced framework leverages quantifiable credit risk metrics as well as current and forecasted economic conditions to determine possible portfolio outcomes that are not captured in quantitatively modeled results. The framework continues to consider risk factors which include, but are not limited to, changes in lending policies, economic and business conditions, nature and volume of portfolio, volume and severity of past due loans, value of underlying collateral, concentrations, and prepayment speeds. The result of these changes was not material.
These refinements have been accounted for as changes in accounting estimates under Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections, with prospective application beginning in the period of change.
Long-Lived Asset Reclassified to Held for Sale
During the second quarter of 2024, the Company sold an aircraft that was previously reclassified as held for sale. The $6.7 million gain on the sale of the aircraft is reflected in other income on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company determined that retention of an idle building and accompanying land adjacent to its main campus was not best suited to serve future expansion plans. As a result of this determination, the Company entered into a purchase and sale agreement with a third party with expected total proceeds, net of estimated expenses, of $20.9 million. Accordingly, the $18.5 million carrying amount of the building and land, was considered held for sale, and reclassified from premises and equipment, net to other assets in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. During the third quarter of 2024, the building and land were sold for a gain of $2.4 million.
Preferred Stock
On August 4, 2025, the Company issued and sold 4,000,000 depositary shares (the “Depositary Shares”), each representing a 1/40th interest in a share of the Company’s 8.375 % Fixed Rate Series A Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, no par value per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share of Series A Preferred Stock (equivalent to $25 per Depositary Share), which represents $100,000,000 in aggregate liquidation preference. Net proceeds, after underwriting discounts and expenses, totaled $96.3 million. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and Depositary Shares will not have voting rights, except with respect to certain changes in the terms of the preferred stock, certain dividend non-payments and as otherwise required by applicable law. The Company may redeem the Series A Preferred Stock at its option, (i) in whole or in part, from time to time, on any dividend payment date on or after September 15, 2030 or (ii) in whole but not in part, at any time within 90 days following a regulatory capital treatment event, in either case at a redemption price equal to $1,000 per share (equivalent to $25 per depositary share), plus any declared and unpaid dividends.
During three months ended September 30, 2025, a cash dividend of $0.23845 per Depositary Share of its Series A Preferred Stock was declared and paid.

Correction of Error
Subsequent to the issuance of the Company's March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025 Quarterly Consolidated Financial Statements on May 5, 2025 and August 5, 2025, respectively, an error was identified in the historical Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows related to the classification of cash flows between operating and investing activities associated with the proceeds received from the sale of loan participations and the related supplemental disclosures of non-cash operating, investing, and financing activities related to these loans. Accordingly, the Company has restated the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows to reflect the error correction for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 and nine months ended September 30, 2024. Net income, retained earnings and shareholders' equity previously reported were not affected by the error correction.

Note 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In October 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-06 “Disclosure Improvements - Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative” (“ASU 2023-06”). ASU 2023-06 amends the ASC to incorporate certain disclosure requirements from SEC Release No. 33-10532 - Disclosure Update and Simplification that was issued in 2018. The effective date for each amendment will be the date on which the SEC’s removal of that related disclosure from Regulation S-X or Regulation S-K becomes effective, with early adoption prohibited. The Company does not believe this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09 “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures” (“ASU 2023-09”). ASU 2023-09 requires enhanced income tax disclosures primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information to provide more transparency by requiring (i) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation table and (ii) income taxes paid, net of refunds, to be disaggregated by jurisdiction based on an established threshold. ASU 2023-09 is effective January 1, 2025 and impacts the Company’s annual income tax disclosure. Aside from complying with the new disclosure requirements, the Company does not believe this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-01 “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards” (“ASU 2024-01”). ASU 2024-01 adds an illustrative example to clarify how an entity should determine whether a profits interest or similar award is within the scope of ASC 718. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2025, with no material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In March 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-02 “Codification Improvements - Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements” (“ASU 2024-02”). ASU 2024-02 removes references to various Concepts Statements in the Codification. The Company adopted the standard on January 1, 2025, with no material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03 “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories within the footnotes. The amendments in this standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the amendments will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06 “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software” (“ASU 2025-06”). ASU 2025-06 indicates an entity should start capitalizing software costs when both of the following occur: (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The amendments in this standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2028. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the amendments will have on the consolidated financial statements.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-07 “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Derivatives Scope Refinements and Scope Clarification for Share-Based Noncash Consideration from a Customer in a Revenue Contract” (“ASU 2025-07”). ASU 2025-07 adds a scope exception from derivative accounting for nonexchange traded contracts with underlyings based on operations or activities specific to one of the parties to the contract. It also clarifies that the revenue guidance in ASC 606 applies initially to share-based noncash consideration received from a customer for the transfer of goods or services. The guidance in other ASCs, including derivatives (ASC 815) and equity securities (ASC 321), is not applied unless and until the entity’s right to receive or retain the share-based noncash consideration is unconditional under ASC 606.The amendments in this standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the amendments will have on the consolidated financial statements.
Legislative Developments
On July 4, 2025, H.R. 1, the U.S. fiscal-year 2025 budget reconciliation legislation, commonly known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBB”), was signed into law, implementing changes in tax and other provisions. The Company does not currently believe the impacts of the OBBB will be material to the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
Note 3. Earnings Per Share
Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur upon the exercise of stock options or upon the vesting of restricted stock grants, any of which would result in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the net income of the Company.

At September 30, 2025, there were 385 mortgage-backed securities, one U.S. government agency and one municipal bond in unrealized loss positions for greater than 12 months. There were 15 mortgage-backed securities, one U.S. government agency and two municipal bonds in unrealized loss positions for less than 12 months. Unrealized losses at December 31, 2024 were comprised of 404 mortgage-backed securities, three U.S. government agencies and two municipal bonds in unrealized loss positions for greater than 12 months. There were 59 mortgage-backed securities and two U.S. government agencies in unrealized loss positions for less than 12 months.
These unrealized losses are primarily the result of non-credit-related volatility in the market and market interest rates. Since none of the unrealized losses relate to the issuers' ability to honor redemption obligations, and the Company does not intend to sell the related securities and does not believe it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the securities before recovery of amortized cost, none of the losses have been recognized in the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
All mortgage-backed securities in the Company’s portfolio at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were backed by U.S. government sponsored enterprises (“GSEs”).

At September 30, 2025, investment securities with a fair value of $580.2 million and amortized cost of $630.2 million were pledged to support unused borrowing capacity. At December 31, 2024, investment securities with a fair value of $621.4 million and amortized cost of $695.1 million were pledged to support unused borrowing capacity.

Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”s)
Variable interests are defined as contractual ownership or other interests in an entity that change with fluctuations in the fair value of an entity's net asset value. The primary beneficiary consolidates the VIE. The primary beneficiary is defined as the enterprise that has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be significant to the VIE.
Solar Renewable Energy Tax Credit Investments
The Company has equity interests in several limited liability companies that own and operate solar renewable energy projects which are accounted for as equity method investments. Over the course of the investments, the Company will receive federal and state tax credits, tax-related benefits, and excess cash available for distribution, if any. The Company may be called to sell its interest in the limited partnerships through a call option once all investment tax credits have been recognized.
Affordable Housing
The Company has an equity investment in a limited liability company LIHTC that qualifies as an affordable housing project, managed by an unrelated general partner. The Company accounts for the investment under the proportional amortization method. Under this method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance as a component of income tax expense. The Company also has equity interests in two limited liability companies that invest in the acquisition, rehabilitation, or new construction of local qualified housing projects which are accounted for as equity method investments.

Canapi Funds
The Company’s limited partnership investments in the Canapi Funds focus on providing venture capital to new and emerging financial technology companies. After the initial commitment and over the course of the investment period, the Company will make capital contributions and receive profit and return of capital distributions as a result of fund performance until the funds wind down.
Non-marketable and Other Equity Investments
The Company also has limited interests in several non-marketable funds, including Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”) and venture capital funds, which are accounted for as equity security investments. After the initial commitment and over the course of the investment period, the Company will make capital contributions and receive profit and return of capital distributions as a result of fund performance until the funds wind down. While the partnership agreements allow the Company to remove the general partner, this right is not deemed to be substantive as the general partner can only be removed for cause. All investments are generally non-redeemable and distributions are expected to be received through the liquidation of the underlying investments throughout the life of the investment fund. Investments may only be sold or transferred subject to the notice and approval provisions of the underlying investment agreement.
The above investments meet the criteria of a VIE, however, the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the entities, as it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entities. The Company’s investment in the unconsolidated VIEs are carried in other assets on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company’s maximum exposure to loss from unconsolidated VIEs includes the investment recorded on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and unfunded commitment. For solar tax credit investments, the balance sheet figures are net of any impairment recognized, and includes previously recorded tax credits which remain subject to recapture by taxing authorities based on compliance features required to be met at the project level. While the Company believes the potential for loss from these investments is remote, the maximum exposure for solar tax credit investments was determined by assuming a scenario where related tax credits were recaptured.

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the ACL increased primarily as a result of loan growth and moderating credit trends. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the ACL increased primarily as a result of loan growth and the impact of charge offs amid a challenging macroeconomic environment. Elevated interest rates and inflationary pressures have placed financial strain on some small business and commercial borrowers which resulted in a continued increase in charge-offs. Loss rates are adjusted for twelve month forecasted Baa-rated corporate bond yields followed by a twelve-month straight-line reversion period.
During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the ACL increased primarily as a result of an increase in specific reserves on loans individually evaluated for impairment. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the ACL increased as a result of specific reserve changes on individually evaluated loans and continued growth of the loan and lease portfolio. Loss rates are adjusted for twelve month forecasted unemployment followed by a twelve-month straight-line reversion period.

Loan Modifications for Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
The Company may agree to modify the contractual terms of a loan to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty as a part of ongoing loss mitigation strategies. These modifications may result in an interest rate reduction, term extension, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, or a combination thereof. The Company typically does not offer principal forgiveness.
The following tables summarize the amortized cost basis of loans that were modified during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, respectively:

Note 6. Leases
Lessor Equipment Leasing
The Company may purchase new equipment for the purpose of leasing such equipment to customers within its verticals. Equipment purchased to fulfill commitments to commercial renewable energy projects is rented out under operating leases while leases of equipment outside of the renewable energy vertical are generally direct financing leases. Accordingly, leased assets under operating leases are included in premises and equipment, net while leased assets under direct financing leases are included in loans and leases held for investment in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Direct Financing Leases
Interest income on direct financing leases is recognized when earned. Unearned interest is recognized over the lease term on a basis which results in a constant rate of return on the unrecovered lease investment. The term of each lease is generally 3 to 7 years which is consistent with the useful life of the equipment with no residual value. The net investment in direct finance leases included in loans and leases held for investment are as follows:
| September 30, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | ||||||||||
| Gross direct finance lease payments receivable | $ | $ | |||||||||
| Less – unearned interest | ( | ( | |||||||||
| Net investment in direct financing leases | $ | $ | |||||||||
Future minimum lease payments to be received under finance leases are as follows:
As of September 30, 2025 | Amount | |||||||
| 2025 | $ | |||||||
| 2026 | ||||||||
| Total | $ | |||||||
Interest income of $7 thousand and $29 thousand was recognized in the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Interest income of $36 thousand and $95 thousand was recognized in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Operating Leases
The term of each operating lease is generally 10 to 15 years. The Company retains ownership of the equipment and associated tax benefits such as investment tax credits and accelerated depreciation. At the end of the lease term, the lessee has the option to renew the lease for two additional terms or purchase the equipment at the then-current fair value.
Rental revenue from operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease. Rental equipment is recorded at cost and depreciated to an estimated residual value on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life. The useful lives generally range from 20 to 25 years and residual values generally range from 20 % to 50 %, however, they are subject to periodic evaluation. Changes in useful lives or residual values will impact depreciation expense and any gain or loss from the sale of used equipment. The estimated useful lives and residual values of the Company's leasing equipment are based on industry disposal experience and the Company's expectations for future sale prices.
If the Company decides to sell or otherwise dispose of rental equipment, it is carried at the lower of cost or fair value less costs to sell or dispose. Repair and maintenance costs that do not extend the lives of the rental equipment are charged to equipment expense at the time the costs are incurred.

Note 7. Servicing Assets
Loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The unpaid principal balance of loans serviced for others requiring recognition of a servicing asset was $3.93 billion and $3.46 billion at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The unpaid principal balance for all loans serviced for others was $5.56 billion and $4.72 billion at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
The following table summarizes the activity pertaining to servicing rights measured at fair value:

| Balance at end of period | $ | $ | $ | $ | |||||||||||||||||||
See Note 9. Fair Value of Financial Instruments for further details about servicing assets measured at fair value.
The fair value of servicing rights was determined using a weighted average discount rate of 13.3 % on September 30, 2025 and 14.5 % on September 30, 2024. The fair value of servicing rights was determined using a weighted average prepayment speed of 16.1 % on September 30, 2025 and 15.7 % on September 30, 2024, with the actual rate depending on the stratification of the specific right. Changes to fair value are reported in loan servicing asset revaluation within the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

The table below reflects the sensitivity of the current fair value of servicing assets to immediate adverse changes in the above key assumptions with all other assumptions remaining static:
| As of September. 30, 2025 | As of December. 31, 2024 | |||||||||||||

The sensitivity calculations above are hypothetical and should not be considered to be predictive of future performance. As indicated, changes in fair value based on changes in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, in this table, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of the servicing rights is calculated without changing any other assumption. Changes in one factor may result in changes in another.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s unused borrowing capacity was $3.90 billion and $3.55 billion, respectively, based upon securities and loans identified as available for collateral. Unused borrowing capacity consists of access through the Federal Reserve Bank's discount window, available lines of credit with the Federal Home Loan Bank and other correspondent banks, and access to a repurchase agreement. If additional collateral is available, the Company's aggregate borrowing capacity with all of the above sources is $6.59 billion and $6.10 billion as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
Note 9. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair Value Hierarchy
There are three levels of inputs in the fair value hierarchy that may be used to measure fair value. Financial instruments are considered Level 1 when valuation can be based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 financial instruments are valued using quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or models using inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data of substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Financial instruments are considered Level 3 when their values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable and when determination of the fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.
Recurring Fair Value
The table below provides a rollforward of the fair value of the Level 3 equity warrant assets:

Fair Value Option
Until the first quarter of 2021, the Company had historically elected to account for retained participating interests of all government guaranteed loans under the fair value option in order to align the accounting presentation with the Company’s viewpoint of the economics of the loans. Interest income is recognized in the same manner on loans reported at fair value as on non-fair value loans, except in regard to origination fees and costs which are recognized immediately upon fair value election. Not electing fair value generally results in a larger discount being recorded on the date of the sale. This discount is subsequently accreted into interest income over the underlying loan’s remaining term using the effective interest method. Management made this change of election in alignment with its ongoing effort to reduce volatility and drive more predictable revenue. In accordance with GAAP, any loans for which fair value was previously elected continue to be measured as such.
There were no 8.2 million and $10.0 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
The following tables provide more information about the fair value carrying amount and the unpaid principal outstanding of loans accounted for under the fair value option at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation
In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings. Management believes that the outcome of such proceedings will not materially affect the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.
Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk
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 and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet.
38
Table of Contents
Live Oak Bancshares, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as for on-balance-sheet instruments. A summary of the Company’s commitments is as follows:
| September 30, 2025 | December 31, 2024 | ||||||||||
Commitments to extend credit (1) (2) | $ | $ | |||||||||
| Standby letters of credit | |||||||||||
| Total unfunded off-balance-sheet credit risk | $ | $ | |||||||||
| (1) | Includes unfunded overdraft protection. | ||||
| (2) | Includes $ | ||||
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 creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the party. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, residential real estate and income-producing commercial properties.
Standby letters of credit 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. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. Collateral held varies as specified above and is required in instances which the Company deems necessary.
The allowance for off-balance-sheet credit exposures was $14.8 million and $13.6 million at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded $1.9 million and $1.2 million in expense related to the allowance for off-balance-sheet credit exposures, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded $1.9 million and $7.5 million in expense related to the allowance for off-balance-sheet credit exposures, respectively. Beginning in the second quarter of 2024, this expense was presented in the provision for credit losses. This expense has historically been presented in other expense and that classification remains unchanged for prior periods.
Other Commitments
See Note 4. Investments for unfunded commitments to provide capital contributions for equity fund investments as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
The distribution of commitments to extend credit approximates the distribution of loans outstanding. The Company generally does not have a significant number of credits to any single borrower or group of related borrowers whereby their retained unguaranteed exposure exceeds $20.0 million, except for 69 relationships that have a retained unguaranteed exposure of $3.04 billion of which $2.03 billion of the unguaranteed exposure has been disbursed.
Additionally, the Company has future minimum lease payments receivable under non-cancelable operating leases totaling $32.4 million, of which no relationships exceed $20.0 million.
The Company from time-to-time may have cash and cash equivalents on deposit with other financial institutions that exceed federally-insured limits.

Nature of Operations
Bancshares is a financial holding company and a bank holding company headquartered in Wilmington, North Carolina incorporated under the laws of the state of North Carolina in December 2008. The Company conducts business operations primarily through its commercial bank subsidiary, Live Oak Banking Company (the “Bank”). The Bank was incorporated in February 2008 as a North Carolina-chartered commercial bank. The Bank specializes in providing lending and deposit related services to small businesses nationwide. A significant portion of the loans originated by the Bank are partially guaranteed by the SBA under the 7(a) Loan Program and the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (“USDA”) Rural Energy for America Program (“REAP”), Water and Environmental Program (“WEP”), Business & Industry (“B&I”) and Community Facilities loan programs. These loans are to small businesses and professionals with what the Bank believes are lower risk characteristics. Industries, or “verticals,” on which the Bank focuses its lending efforts are carefully selected. The Bank also lends more broadly to select borrowers outside of those verticals.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company’s wholly owned material subsidiaries were the Bank, Government Loan Solutions (“GLS”), Live Oak Grove, LLC (“Grove”) and Live Oak Ventures, Inc. (“Live Oak Ventures”). GLS is a management and technology consulting firm that advises and offers solutions and services to participants in the government guaranteed lending sector. GLS primarily provides services in connection with the settlement, accounting, and securitization processes for government guaranteed loans, including loans originated under the SBA 7(a) loan programs and USDA guaranteed loans. The Grove provides Company employees and business visitors with on-site dining at the Company's Wilmington, North Carolina headquarters. Live Oak Ventures’ purpose is investing in businesses that align with the Company's strategic initiative to be a leader in financial technology. Canapi Advisors, LLC (“Canapi Advisors”) was a wholly owned subsidiary providing investment advisory services to a series of funds (the “Canapi Funds”) focused on providing venture capital to new and emerging financial technology companies. During the third quarter of 2024, the Canapi Funds were restructured and Canapi Advisors voluntarily withdrew as an investment advisor to the funds. Canapi Advisors was subsequently dissolved in the fourth quarter of 2024. As of December 31, 2024, Live Oak Ventures consolidated its investment in Synply, Inc. (“Synply”) as a result of its controlling interest in that entity. Synply is a cloud-based technology platform designed to simplify the loan syndication process for financial institutions and discloses the non-controlling interest according to the Company’s consolidation policy.
The Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries are Live Oak Number One, Inc., Live Oak Clean Energy Financing LLC (“LOCEF”), Live Oak Private Wealth, LLC (“Live Oak Private Wealth”) and Tiburon Land Holdings, LLC (“TLH”). Live Oak Number One, Inc. holds properties foreclosed on by the Bank. LOCEF provides financing to entities for renewable energy applications. Live Oak Private Wealth provides high-net-worth individuals and families with strategic wealth and investment management services. TLH holds land adjacent to the Bank's headquarters consisting of wetlands and other protected property for the use and enjoyment of the Bank's employees and customers.

Table of Contents
The Company generates revenue primarily from net interest income and secondarily through origination and sale of government guaranteed loans. Income from the retention of loans is comprised principally of interest income. Income from the sale of loans is comprised of loan servicing revenue and revaluation of related servicing assets along with net gains on sales of loans. Offsetting these revenues are the cost of funding sources, provision for credit losses, any costs related to foreclosed assets and other operating costs such as salaries and employee benefits, travel, professional services, advertising and marketing and tax expense. The Company also has less routinely generated gains and losses arising from its financial technology investments.
Results of Operations
Performance Summary
Three months ended September 30, 2025 compared with three months ended September 30, 2024
For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company reported net income attributable to common shareholders of $25.6 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to common shareholders of $13.0 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2024.
The increase in net income was principally due to the following items:
•Increased net interest income of $18.5 million, or 19.1%;
•Provision for credit losses decreased by $12.3 million, or 35.5%, to $22.2 million, compared to $34.5 million for the third quarter of 2024;
•Increased net gains on sales of loans of $4.2 million, or 25.4%, principally the result of higher loan sale volumes in the third quarter of 2025;
Key factors largely offsetting the increase in net income are increased levels of salaries and employee benefits of $8.3 million and income tax expense of $5.3 million.
Nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared with nine months ended September 30, 2024
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company reported net income attributable to common shareholders of $58.7 million, or $1.28 per diluted share, compared to net income attributable to common shareholders of $67.6 million, or $1.48 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
The decrease in net income was largely due to the following items:
•Provision for credit losses increased by $11.8 million, or 18.9%, to $74.5 million, compared to $62.6 million for the first nine months of 2024;
•Management fee income decreased by $7.7 million, or 100.0%, due to the restructuring of the Canapi Funds in the third quarter of 2024;
•Other noninterest income decreased by $14.1 million, or 50.4%, largely related to the combination of a $2.4 million gain from the sale of a building in the third quarter of 2024, $6.7 million gain arising from the sale of one of the Company’s aircraft in the second quarter of 2024 and a $5.7 million first quarter of 2024 gain arising from increased fair value of equity warrant assets;
•Noninterest expense increased by $27.6 million, or 11.9%. This increase was principally comprised of increased levels of salary and employee benefits of $11.9 million, technology expense of $4.8 million, FDIC insurance of $3.0 million and other expense of $3.8 million. The increase in other expense was principally comprised of a $2.8 million loss arising from the early buyout of the Company's sole bioenergy lease;
44
Table of Contents
•Net income tax expense increased by $13.0 million, from $8.4 million in the first nine months of 2024, to $21.4 million for the same period of 2025. This increase was largely the result of an additional $10.6 million in investment tax credits related to the Company's fourth quarter of 2023 renewable energy investment that became eligible for an extra 10% in tax credits in the first quarter of 2024.
Key factors largely offsetting the decrease in net income are increased levels of net interest income of $46.8 million and increased net gains on sales of loans of $18.6 million.
Net Interest Income and Margin
Net interest income represents the difference between the income that the Company earns on interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The Company’s net interest income depends upon the volume of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and the interest rates that the Company earns or pays on them, respectively. Net interest income is affected by changes in the amount and mix of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, referred to as “volume changes.” It is also affected by changes in yields earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and other borrowed funds, referred to as “rate changes.” As a bank without a branch network, the Bank gathers deposits over the Internet and in the community in which it is headquartered. Due to the nature of a branchless bank and the relatively low overhead required for deposit gathering, the rates that the Bank offers are generally above the industry average.
Three months ended September 30, 2025 compared with three months ended September 30, 2024
For the three months ended September 30, 2025, net interest income increased $18.5 million, or 19.1%, to $115.5 million compared to $97.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was principally due to the growth in the held for investment loan and lease portfolio outpacing growth in interest-bearing liabilities, offset by the decrease in average yield on interest-earning assets outpacing the decrease in average cost of funds. Average interest-earning assets increased by $2.19 billion, or 19.0%, to $13.77 billion for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $11.57 billion for the third quarter of 2024, while the yield on average interest-earning assets decreased 51 basis points to 6.67%. The cost of funds on interest-bearing liabilities for the third quarter of 2025 decreased 49 basis points to 3.68% and the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased by $1.81 billion, or 17.0%, over the third quarter of 2024.
As indicated in the rate/volume analysis below, the overall increase discussed above is reflected in increased interest income of $22.5 million outpacing growth in interest expense of $4.0 million for the third quarter of 2025 compared to the third quarter of 2024. The net interest margin remained stable at 3.33% for both the third quarters of 2024 and 2025.
Nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared with nine months ended September 30, 2024
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net interest income increased $46.8 million, or 16.8%, to $325.2 million compared to $278.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. This increase was principally due to the growth in the held for investment loan and lease portfolio outpacing growth in interest-bearing liabilities, offset by the decrease in average yield on interest-earning assets outpacing the decrease in average cost of funds. Average interest-earning assets increased by $2.07 billion, or 18.5%, to $13.30 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $11.22 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, while the yield on average interest-earning assets decreased 42 basis points to 6.72%. The cost of funds on interest-bearing liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 decreased 35 basis points to 3.78%, and the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased by $1.75 billion, or 16.8%, over the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities was largely driven by funding for significant loan originations and growth as well as maintenance of the Company's target liquidity profile. As indicated in the rate/volume analysis below, the overall increase discussed above is reflected in increased interest income of $69.0 million outpacing growth in interest expense of $22.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The net interest margin decreased from 3.31% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to 3.27% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

In September 2025, the Federal Reserve lowered the federal funds upper target rate by 25 basis points to 4.25%. Subsequently, in October 2025, the Federal Reserve further decreased the federal funds upper target rate by 25 basis points, to 4.00%. The Federal Reserve released its most recent federal funds target rate midpoint projections which implied a decrease of the median Federal Funds rate to 3.6% by the end of 2025 and a decrease of approximately 25 basis points to 3.4% by the end of 2026. There can be no assurance that any further decreases or increases in the Federal Funds rate will occur, and if they do, the amount and timing of actual adjustments are subject to change. See Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk for information about the Company’s sensitivity to interest rates.
Average Balances and Yields. The following table presents information regarding average balances for assets and liabilities, the total dollar amounts of interest income and dividends from average interest-earning assets, the total dollar amount of interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities, and the resulting average yields and costs. The yields and costs for the periods indicated are derived by dividing the income or expense by the average balances for assets or liabilities, respectively, for the periods presented and annualizing that result. Loan fees are included in interest income on loans.

Rate/Volume Analysis. The following table sets forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on net interest income. The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate). The total column represents the sum of the prior columns. For purposes of this table, increases or decreases attributable to changes in both rate and volume that cannot be segregated have been allocated proportionally based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume.

Provision for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses represents the amount necessary to be charged against the current period’s earnings to maintain the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) on loans and leases at a level that the Company believes is appropriate in relation to the estimated losses inherent in the loan and lease portfolio. Beginning in the second quarter of 2024, expense related to off-balance sheet credit exposures was also included in the provision for credit losses in response to growth in the amount of loans with applicable off-balance sheet credit risk. See Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies under the subheading Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk for additional information.
Losses inherent in loan relationships are mitigated if a portion of the loan is guaranteed by the SBA or USDA. Typical SBA 7(a) and USDA guarantees range from 50% to 90% depending on loan size and type, which serve to reduce the risk profile of these loans. The Company believes that its focus on compliance with regulations and guidance from the SBA and USDA are key factors to managing this risk.
For the third quarter of 2025, there was a provision for credit losses of $22.2 million compared to $34.5 million for the same period in 2024, a decrease of $12.3 million. The decrease over the third quarter of 2024 was primarily driven by lower levels of specific reserves required on individually evaluated loans in the third quarter of 2025.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, there was a provision for credit losses of $74.5 million compared to $62.6 million for the same period in 2024, an increase of $11.8 million. This increase in provision was principally driven by loan growth and the below discussed charge off impacts amid a challenging macroeconomic environment. Elevated interest rates and inflationary pressures have placed financial strain on some small business and commercial borrowers which resulted in a continued increase in charge-offs.
Loans and leases held for investment at historical cost were $11.27 billion as of September 30, 2025, increasing by $1.79 billion, or 18.8%, compared to September 30, 2024.

Table of Contents
Net charge-offs for loans and leases carried at historical cost were $16.8 million, or 0.61% of average quarterly loans and leases held for investment, carried at historical cost, on an annualized basis, for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to net charge-offs of $1.7 million, or 0.08%, for the three months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $15.1 million, or 883.4%. The increase in net charge-offs compared to the third quarter of 2024 was largely concentrated to individually evaluated loans with specific reserves recorded in prior periods. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net charge-offs totaled $55.0 million compared to $13.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $41.9 million, or 319.3%. Net charge-offs are a key element of historical experience in the Company's estimation of the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases.
In addition, nonperforming loans and leases not guaranteed by the SBA or USDA, excluding $6.8 million and $8.7 million accounted for under the fair value option at September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, totaled $76.9 million, which was 0.68% of the held for investment loan and lease portfolio carried at historical cost at September 30, 2025, compared to $49.4 million, or 0.52% of loans and leases held for investment carried at historical cost at September 30, 2024.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income is principally comprised of net gains from the sale of SBA and USDA-guaranteed loans along with loan servicing revenue and related revaluation of the servicing asset. Revenue from the sale of loans depends upon the volume, maturity structure and rates of underlying loans as well as the pricing and availability of funds in the secondary markets prevailing in the period between completed loan funding and closing of sale. In addition, the loan servicing revaluation is significantly impacted by changes in market rates and other underlying assumptions such as prepayment speeds and default rates. Net (loss) gain on loans accounted for under the fair value option is also significantly impacted by changes in market rates, prepayment speeds and inherent credit risk. Other less consistent elements of noninterest income include gains and losses on investments.
The following table shows the components of noninterest income and the dollar and percentage changes for the periods presented.

For the three months ended September 30, 2025, noninterest income decreased by $2.3 million, or 7.0%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. Principal changes when compared with the third quarter of 2024 are a $2.6 million negative change in net gain to net loss on loans accounted for under the fair value option and a $2.2 million decrease in other noninterest income largely related to largely related to the $2.4 million gain from the sale of a building in the third quarter of 2024. Partially offsetting the decrease in noninterest income is higher net gains on sales of loans of $4.2 million.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, noninterest income decreased by $2.5 million, or 2.6%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Principal changes when compared with the first nine months of 2024 are primarily a result of a $2.3 million increase in loss related to the servicing asset revaluation combined with a $2.5 million negative change in net gain to net loss on loans accounted for under the fair value option, $7.7 million decrease in management fee income discussed above and a $14.1 million decrease in other noninterest income. The previously discussed decrease in noninterest income was largely due to higher income in the first nine months of 2024 related to a $2.4 million gain from the sale of a building, a $6.7 million gain arising from an aircraft sale and a $5.7 million fair value gain in equity warrant assets. Partially offsetting the decrease in total noninterest income over the prior year to date period was higher net gains on sales of loans of $18.6 million combined with $2.7 million in higher levels of loan servicing revenue.

Changes in various components of noninterest income are discussed in more detail below.
Loan Servicing Asset Revaluation: The Company revalues its serviced loan portfolio at least quarterly. The valuation model incorporates assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net servicing income, such as adequate compensation for servicing, the discount rate, the custodial earnings rate, ancillary income, prepayment speeds and default rates and losses, with prepayment speed and discount rate being the most sensitive assumptions. For the three months ended September 30, 2025, there was a net loss on loan servicing asset revaluation of $4.4 million, compared to a net loss of $4.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, there was a net loss on loan servicing asset revaluation of $12.1 million compared to a net loss of $9.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, resulting in a negative comparative year-to-date change of $2.3 million. The decrease in the valuation of the servicing asset compared to the first nine months of 2024 was principally the result of principal paydowns or runoff as well as less favorable market conditions in 2025.
Net Gains on Sales of Loans: For the three months ended September 30, 2025, net gains on sales of loans increased $4.2 million, or 25.4%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024. The volume of guaranteed loans sold increased $81.4 million, or 30.6%, for the three months ended September 30, 2025 to $347.8 million from $266.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, net gains on sales of loans increased $18.6 million, or 43.8%, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the volume of guaranteed loans sold increased $232.9 million, or 33.1%, to $936.3 million from $703.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The average net gain on loan sale premium decreased from 107% to 106% in the third quarters of 2024 and 2025, respectively, and increased from 106% to 107% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2025, respectively. The increase in net gains on sales of loans over the third quarter of 2024 and nine months ended September 30, 2024 was principally related to a higher loan sale volume combined with relatively stable average premiums.
Net (Loss) Gain on Loans Accounted for Under the Fair Value Option: For the three months ended September 30, 2025, the Company had a net loss on loans accounted for under the fair value option of $350 thousand compared to a net gain of $2.3 million for the third quarter of 2024, a negative change of $2.6 million, or 115.5%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company had a net loss on loans accounted for under the fair value option of $302 thousand compared to a net gain of $2.2 million for the same period of 2024, a negative change of $2.5 million, or 113.7%. The carrying amount of loans accounted for under the fair value option at September 30, 2025 and 2024 was $280.3 million (all classified as held for investment) and $343.4 million (all classified as held for investment), respectively, a decrease of $63.1 million, or 18.4%. The increased levels of net losses arising from the valuation of loans accounted for under the fair value option for both comparative periods was principally the result of credit downgrades in the derivation of fair value for a portion of the underlying loans.

Total noninterest expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, increased $9.7 million, or 12.5%, and increased $27.6 million, or 11.9%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2024. The changes within noninterest expense for the comparable three and nine month periods was largely driven by various components, as discussed below.
Salaries and employee benefits: Total personnel expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 increased by $8.3 million, or 18.6%, and increased by $11.9 million, or 8.6%, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2024. The increase over both comparative periods of 2024 is principally related to investment in human resources to support strategic and growth initiatives. Total full-time equivalent employees increased from 999 at September 30, 2024, to 1,029 at September 30, 2025. Salaries and employee benefits expense included $6.0 million and $19.7 million of stock-based compensation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, compared to $6.7 million and $19.9 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively. Expenses related to the employee stock purchase program, stock grants, stock option compensation and restricted stock expense are all considered stock-based compensation.
Technology expense: For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, technology expense increased $4.8 million, or 19.2%, compared to the same period in 2024. This increase was primarily related to enhanced investments in the Company’s technology resources.
FDIC insurance: For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, FDIC insurance increased $3.0 million, or 38.0%, compared to the same period in 2024. This decrease is largely the product of the Company’s continued growth combined with increased FDIC assessment rates.
Other expense: For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, other expense increased $3.8 million, or 44.2%, compared to the same period in 2024. The increase was principally driven by a $2.8 million loss arising from the early buyout of the Company's sole bioenergy lease in the second quarter of 2025.
Income Tax Expense
For the three months ended September 30, 2025, income tax expense was $10.1 million compared to income tax expense of $4.8 million in the third quarter of 2024, and the Company’s effective tax rates were 27.6% and 27.0%, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, income tax expense was $21.4 million compared to $8.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, and the Company’s effective tax rates were 26.4% and 11.1%, respectively. The higher level of income tax expense for the third quarter of 2025 as compared to the third quarter of 2024 was largely the result of heightened pretax income during the current period. The higher level of income tax expense for the first nine months of 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024 was largely the result of an additional $10.6 million in tax credits related to the Company's fourth quarter of 2023 renewable energy investment that became eligible for an extra 10% in tax credits in the first quarter of 2024.

Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
September 30, 2025 vs. December 31, 2024
Total assets at September 30, 2025 were $14.67 billion, an increase of $1.72 billion, or 13.3%, compared to total assets of $12.94 billion at December 31, 2024. The growth in total assets was principally driven by the following:
•Cash and cash equivalents, comprised of cash and due from banks, combined with investment securities available-for-sale was $2.27 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of $408.7 million, or 22.0%, compared to $1.86 billion at December 31, 2024. This increase reflects growing deposit levels and net proceeds of a third quarter of 2025 preferred stock issuance, discussed further below, combined with maintenance of the Company's targeted liquidity profile.
•Growth in total loans and leases held for investment and held for sale of $1.34 billion, or 12.6%, during the first nine months of 2025, from $10.58 billion at December 31, 2024, to $11.92 billion at September 30, 2025. This growth was a result of strong origination activity during the first nine months of 2025 of $4.57 billion.
Total deposits were $13.29 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of $1.53 billion, or 13.0%, from $11.76 billion at December 31, 2024. The increase in total deposits from the prior period was to support growth in the loan and lease portfolio as well as the Company's targeted liquidity levels. At September 30, 2025, the Bank’s total uninsured deposits were approximately $2.19 billion, or 16.3%, of total deposits.
Total shareholders' equity was $1.20 billion at September 30, 2025, an increase of $199.1 million, or 19.8%, from $1.00 billion at December 31, 2024. The increase in total shareholders' equity from the prior period was largely due to $96.3 million in net proceeds from the issuance of preferred stock during the quarter combined with net income of $59.5 million and other comprehensive income of $30.2 million.

Asset Quality
Management considers asset quality to be of primary importance. A formal loan review function, independent of loan origination, is used to identify and monitor problem loans. This function reports directly to the Risk Committee of the Board of Directors.
Nonperforming Assets
The Bank places loans and leases on nonaccrual status when they become 90 days past due as to principal or interest payments, or prior to that if management has determined based upon current information available to them that the timely collection of principal or interest is not probable. When a loan or lease is placed on nonaccrual status, any interest previously accrued as income but not actually collected is reversed and recorded as a reduction of loan or lease interest and fee income. Typically, collections of interest and principal received on a nonaccrual loan or lease are applied to the outstanding principal as determined at the time of collection of the loan or lease.
Nonperforming assets, including loans measured at fair value, at September 30, 2025 were $530.8 million, which represented a $159.1 million, or 42.8%, increase from December 31, 2024. These nonperforming assets at September 30, 2025 were comprised of $519.8 million in nonaccrual loans and leases and $11.0 million in foreclosed assets. Of the $530.8 million of nonperforming assets, $442.9 million carried a government guarantee, leaving an unguaranteed exposure of $87.9 million in total nonperforming assets at September 30, 2025. This represents a decrease of $3.7 million, or 4.0%, from an unguaranteed exposure of $91.6 million at December 31, 2024.

Nonperforming assets, excluding loans measured at fair value, at September 30, 2025 were $467.3 million, which represented a $161.1 million, or 52.6%, increase from December 31, 2024. These nonperforming assets at September 30, 2025 were comprised of $456.3 million in nonaccrual loans and leases and $11.0 million in foreclosed assets. Of the $467.3 million of nonperforming assets, $387.6 million carried a government guarantee, leaving an unguaranteed exposure of $79.7 million in total nonperforming assets at September 30, 2025. This represents a decrease of $1.9 million, or 2.4%, from an unguaranteed exposure of $81.6 million at December 31, 2024.
See the below discussion related to the change in potential problem and individually evaluated loans and leases for management’s overall observations regarding growth in total nonperforming loans and leases.
As a percentage of the Bank’s total capital, nonperforming loans and leases, excluding loans measured at fair value, represented 37.0% at September 30, 2025, compared to 26.7% at December 31, 2024. Adjusting the ratio to include only the unguaranteed portion of nonperforming loans and leases at historical cost to reflect management’s belief that the greater magnitude of risk resides in this portion, the ratios at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were 6.2% and 7.2%, respectively.
As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, potential problem (also referred to as criticized) and classified loans and leases, excluding loans measured at fair value, totaled $1.29 billion and $1.04 billion, respectively. The following is a discussion of these loans and leases. Risk Grades 50 through 80 represent the spectrum of criticized and classified loans and leases. For a complete description of the risk grading system, see “Credit Quality Indicators” in Note 3 in the notes to consolidated financial statements in the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K/A. At September 30, 2025, the portion of criticized and classified loans and leases guaranteed by the SBA or USDA totaled $633.8 million and total portfolio unguaranteed exposure risk was $654.0 million, or 8.2% of total held for investment unguaranteed exposure carried at historical cost. This compares to the December 31, 2024 portion of criticized and classified loans and leases guaranteed by the SBA or USDA which totaled $518.7 million and total portfolio unguaranteed exposure risk was $523.3 million, or 7.8% of total held for investment unguaranteed exposure carried at historical cost.

Of the above listed verticals, Senior Housing, Sponsor Finance, Bioenergy, Solar Energy and Community Facilities are within the Company’s Commercial Banking division, the remainder of the above listed verticals are within the Small Business Banking division. The total $245.9 million increase in potential problem and classified loans and leases in the first nine months of 2025 was comprised of $94.4 million in increased levels of Risk Grade 50 loans and leases, as discussed below and $151.5 million in classified loans. The overall increase in classified loans in the first nine months of 2025 was primarily driven by higher levels of small business and commercial borrowers impacted by the challenging macroeconomic environment. These changes largely reflect the effects of normal growth and isolated borrower performance migrations rather than any systemic credit deterioration. The Company believes that its underwriting and credit quality standards have remained high and continues to consider changing economic conditions as well as the current interest rate environment.
Loans and leases that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls are generally not individually evaluated for the purpose of estimating the allowance for credit losses. The Bank generally considers an “insignificant period of time” from payment delays to be a period of 90 days or less. The Bank would consider a modification for a customer experiencing what is expected to be a short-term event that has temporarily impacted cash flow. This could be due, among other reasons, to illness, weather, impact from a one-time expense, slower than expected start-up, construction issues or other short-term issues. Credit personnel will review the request to determine if the customer is experiencing financial stress and how the event has impacted the ability of the customer to repay the loan or lease long term. At September 30, 2025, the Company had a total of $80.4 million in loans modified in 2025 to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, excluding loans measured at fair value, $78.1 million of which remained current and $68.6 million million of which are for an other-than-insignificant payment delay or term extension.
Management endeavors to be proactive in its approach to identify and resolve problem loans and leases and is focused on working with the borrowers and guarantors of these loans and leases to provide loan and lease modifications when warranted. Management implements a proactive approach to identifying and classifying loans and leases as special mention (also referred to as criticized), Risk Grade 50. At September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, Risk Grade 50 loans and leases, excluding loans measured at fair value, totaled $624.3 million and $529.9 million, respectively, for an increase of $94.4 million. Relative to total held for investment unguaranteed exposure carried at historical cost at December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2025, unguaranteed Risk Grade 50 loans and leases increased from $357.9 million, or 5.3%, to $442.9 million, or 5.5%, respectively. The increase in unguaranteed Risk Grade 50 loans and leases was primarily driven by higher levels of small business and commercial borrowers impacted by the challenging macroeconomic environment.

Of the above listed verticals, Solar Energy, Sponsor Finance, Government Contractors, Senior Housing, Hospitality, and Commercial Real Estate Financing are within the Company’s Commercial Banking division and the remainder of the above listed verticals are within the Small Business Banking division.
At September 30, 2025, approximately 99.5% of loans and leases classified as Risk Grade 50 are performing with no relationships having payments past due more than 30 days. While the level of nonperforming assets fluctuates in response to changing economic and market conditions, in light of the relative size and composition of the loan and lease portfolio and management’s degree of success in resolving problem assets, management believes that a proactive approach to early identification and intervention is critical to successfully managing a small business loan portfolio.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans and Leases
The ACL of $167.5 million at December 31, 2024, increased by $18.2 million, or 10.9%, to $185.7 million at September 30, 2025. The ACL as a percentage of loans and leases held for investment at historical cost amounted to 1.7% at both December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2025, respectively. The increase in the ACL during the first nine months of 2025 was primarily the result of loan growth and charge off impacts amid a challenging macroeconomic environment, where elevated interest rates and inflationary pressures have placed financial strain on some small business and commercial borrowers. See also the above section captioned “Provision for Credit Losses” in “Results of Operations” for related information.

Actual past due held for investment loans and leases, inclusive of loans measured at fair value, have increased by $147.4 million since December 31, 2024. Total loans and leases 90 or more days past due increased $46.0 million, or 18.0%, compared to December 31, 2024. This increase was comprised of a $185 thousand decrease in unguaranteed exposure combined with a $46.2 million increase in the guaranteed portion of past due loans compared to December 31, 2024. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, total held for investment unguaranteed loans and leases past due as a percentage of total held for investment unguaranteed loans and leases, inclusive of loans measured at fair value, was 1.4% and 1.3%, respectively. Total unguaranteed loans and leases past due were comprised of $103.8 million carried at historical cost, an increase of $26.4 million, and $8.0 million measured at fair value, a decrease of $2.2 million, as of September 30, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024. Management continues to actively monitor and work to improve asset quality. Management believes the ACL of $185.7 million at September 30, 2025 is appropriate in light of the risk inherent in the loan and lease portfolio. Management’s judgments are based on numerous assumptions about current and expected events that it believes to be reasonable, but which may or may not be valid. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that management’s ongoing evaluation of the loan and lease portfolio in light of changing economic conditions and other relevant circumstances will not require significant future additions to the ACL, thus adversely affecting the Company’s operating results. Additional information on the ACL is presented in Note 5. Loans and Leases Held for Investment and Credit Quality of the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report.
Liquidity Management
Liquidity management refers to the ability to meet day-to-day cash flow requirements based primarily on activity in loan and deposit accounts of the Company’s customers. Liquidity is immediately available from four major sources: (a) cash on hand and on deposit at other banks; (b) the outstanding balance of federal funds sold; (c) the fair value of unpledged investment securities; and (d) availability under lines of credit, FHLB advances and the Federal Reserve Discount Window. A primary tool in the Company's liquidity management process is the utilization of an Outflow Coverage Ratio (“OCR”) model to stress outflows in various scenarios with targeted days of liquidity coverage. The OCR model output is then used by management to ensure adequate liquidity sources are available during those future periods. At September 30, 2025, the total amount of these four liquidity source items was $4.84 billion, or 33.0% of total assets, an increase of 0.6% of total assets from $4.20 billion, or 32.4% of total assets, at December 31, 2024.
Loans and other assets are funded primarily by customer deposits, brokered deposits and loan sales. The Company maintains an investment securities portfolio that is available for both immediate and secondary contingent liquidity purposes, whether via pledging to the Federal Home Loan Bank, Federal Reserve Bank, or through liquidation. Additionally, the Company maintains a guaranteed and unguaranteed loan portfolio that is also a contingent liquidity source, whether via pledging to the Federal Reserve Discount Window or through liquidation.
At September 30, 2025, $580.2 million of the investment securities portfolio were pledged for unused borrowing capacity, leaving $793.0 million available to be pledged as collateral.
Contractual Obligations
The Company has entered into significant fixed and determinable contractual obligations for future payments. Other than normal changes in the ordinary course of the Company’s operations, there have been no significant changes in the types of contractual obligations or amounts due since December 31, 2024. See the section titled “Liquidity Management” in Part II, Item 7 of the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K/A for additional discussion of contractual obligations.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
In the normal course of operations, the Company engages in a variety of financial transactions that, in accordance with GAAP, are not recorded in the consolidated financial statements. These transactions involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, interest rate and liquidity risk. Such transactions are used primarily to manage customers’ requests for funding and take the form of commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. For more information, see Note 10. Commitments and Contingencies in the accompanying notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Asset/Liability Management and Interest Rate Sensitivity
One of the primary objectives of asset/liability management is to maximize the net interest margin while minimizing the earnings risk associated with changes in interest rates. One method used to manage interest rate sensitivity is to measure the repricing differences, or interest rate gaps, between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, across various time periods. As of September 30, 2025, the balance sheet’s total cumulative gap position was 6.3%, meaning that over the entire life of the Company's assets and liabilities, more assets will reprice than liabilities. For further information, see Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
The interest rate gap method, however, addresses only the magnitude of asset and liability repricing timing differences as of the report date and does not address earnings, market value, changes in account behaviors based on the interest rate environment, or growth. Therefore, management also uses an earnings simulation model to prepare, on a regular basis, earnings projections based on a range of instantaneous parallel interest rate shocks applied to a static balance sheet and non-parallel interest rate shocks applied to a dynamic balance sheet to measure interest rate risk. As of September 30, 2025, the Company’s interest rate risk profile under the instantaneous parallel interest rate shock scenarios applied to a static balance sheet is moderately asset-sensitive. For more information, see Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
An asset-sensitive position means that net interest income will generally move in the same direction as interest rates. For instance, if interest rates increase, net interest income can be expected to increase, and if interest rates decrease, net interest income can be expected to decrease. The Company attempts to mitigate interest rate risk by match funding assets and liabilities with similar rate instruments. Asset/liability sensitivity is primarily derived from the prime-based loans that adjust as the prime interest rate changes, rates on cash accounts that adjust as the federal funds rate changes and the longer duration of indeterminate term deposits. Note that the Company regularly models various forecasted rate projections with non-parallel shifts that are reflective of potential current rate environment outcomes. Under these scenarios, the Company’s interest rate risk profile may increase in asset sensitivity, decrease in asset sensitivity, or depending on the scenario and timing of anticipated rate changes, may transition to a liability-sensitive interest rate risk profile. The Company believes that regular modeling of various interest rate outcomes allows it to assess and manage potential risks from various rate shifts.
Capital
The maintenance of appropriate levels of capital is a management priority and is monitored on a regular basis. The Company’s principal goals related to the maintenance of capital are the following: to provide adequate capital to support the Company’s risk profile consistent with the risk appetite approved by the Board of Directors; to provide financial flexibility to support future growth and client needs; to comply with relevant laws, regulations, and supervisory guidance; to achieve optimal ratings for the Company and its subsidiaries; and to provide a competitive return to shareholders. Management regularly monitors the capital position of the Company on both a consolidated and bank level basis. In this regard, management’s goal is to maintain capital at levels that are in excess of the regulatory “well capitalized” levels. Risk-based capital ratios, which include Tier 1 Capital, Total Capital and Common Equity Tier 1 Capital, are calculated based on regulatory guidance related to the measurement of capital and risk-weighted assets.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. The Company bases estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under current circumstances, results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Estimates are evaluated on an ongoing basis. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Accounting policies, including those for the Company's critical accounting policies, as described in detail in the Notes to the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in this report and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2024, are an integral part of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. A thorough understanding of these accounting policies is essential when reviewing the Company’s reported results of operations and financial position. The Company’s most critical accounting policy and estimate is listed below. This estimate requires the Company to make difficult, subjective or complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain.
•Allowance for credit losses
Changes in this estimate, that are likely to occur from period to period, or the use of different estimates that the Company could have reasonably used in the current period, could have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Interest rate risk is a significant market risk and can result from timing and volume differences in the repricing of rate-sensitive assets and liabilities, widening or tightening of credit spreads, changes in the general level of market interest rates and changes in the shape and level of market yield curves. The Company manages the interest rate sensitivity of interest-bearing liabilities and interest-earning assets in an effort to minimize the adverse effects of changes in the interest rate environment. Management of interest rate risk is carried out primarily through strategies involving available-for-sale securities, loan and lease portfolio, and available funding sources.
The Company has an Asset/Liability Committee to communicate, coordinate and control all aspects involving interest rate risk management. The Asset/Liability Committee establishes and monitors the volume, maturities, pricing and mix of assets and funding sources with the objective of managing assets and funding sources to provide results that are consistent with liquidity, growth, risk limits and profitability goals. Adherence to relevant policies is monitored on an ongoing basis by the Asset/Liability Committee.
The Company has a total cumulative gap in interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities of 6.3% as of September 30, 2025, indicating that, overall, assets will reprice before liabilities during the expected life of the instruments. Cumulative gap is a useful measure to monitor balance sheet match-funding, yet economic value of equity and net interest income simulations, discussed below, are more useful in understanding potential impacts to earnings from a change in interest rates.
The matching of assets and liabilities may be analyzed by examining the extent to which such assets and liabilities are “interest rate sensitive.” An asset or liability is said to be interest rate sensitive within a specific time period if it will mature or reprice within that time period. The Company analyzes interest rate sensitivity position to manage the risk associated with interest rate movements through the use of two simulation models: economic value of equity (“EVE”) and net interest income (“NII”) simulations. The EVE simulation provides a long-term view of interest rate risk because it analyzes all of the Company’s future cash flows. EVE is defined as the present value of the Company’s assets, less the present value of its liabilities, adjusted for any off-balance sheet items. The results show a theoretical change in the economic value of shareholders’ equity as interest rates change. The NII simulation provides a short-term view of interest rate risk as it analyzes impact on net interest income over a 12-month and 24-month time horizon. NII simulations are prepared by calculating net interest income in a scenario where interest rates do not change (base case) and then recalculated in scenarios with higher and lower interest rates. The results of each variation are compared against the base case scenario to determine the potential change in earnings.
EVE and NII simulations are completed regularly and presented to the Asset/Liability Committee. The simulations provide an estimate of the impact of changes in interest rates on equity and net interest income under a range of assumptions, and under instantaneous parallel interest rate shocks assuming a static balance sheet. The numerous assumptions used in the simulation process are provided to the Asset/Liability Committee on at least an annual basis. Changes to these assumptions can significantly affect the results of the simulation. The simulation incorporates assumptions regarding the potential timing in the repricing of certain assets and liabilities when market rates change and the changes in spreads between different market rates. The simulation analysis incorporates management’s current assessment of the risk that pricing margins will change adversely over time due to competition or other factors.
Simulation analysis is only an estimate of interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time. The Company regularly models various forecasted rate projections with non-parallel shifts that are reflective of potential current rate environment outcomes. Under these scenarios, the Company’s interest rate risk profile may increase in asset sensitivity, decrease in asset sensitivity, or depending on the scenario and timing of anticipated rate changes, may transition to a liability sensitive interest rate risk profile. The Company believes that regular modeling of various interest rate outcomes allows it to assess and manage potential risks from various rate shifts.

The table below sets forth an approximation of the Company’s NII sensitivity exposure for the 12-month periods ending September 30, 2026 and 2027, and the Company’s EVE sensitivity at September 30, 2025 under instantaneous parallel interest rate shocks assuming a static balance sheet. The simulation uses projected repricing of assets and liabilities at September 30, 2025, on the basis of contractual maturities, anticipated repayments and scheduled rate adjustments. Critical model assumptions such as loan and investment prepayment rates, deposit decay rates, deposit betas and lags and assumed replacement pricing can have a significant impact on interest income simulation. A static balance sheet is maintained to remove volume considerations and to place the focal point on the rate sensitivity of the Company’s balance sheet. While management believes such assumptions to be reasonable, approximate actual future activity may differ from the results shown below as it will include growth considerations and management actions to mitigate the impacts of changing interest rates on the balance sheet’s earnings profile.
| Estimated Increase/Decrease in Net Interest Income | Estimated Percentage Change in EVE | |||||||||||||||||||
| Basis Point Change in Interest Rates | 12 Months Ending September 30, 2026 | 12 Months Ending September 30, 2027 | As of September 30, 2025 | |||||||||||||||||

Rates are increased instantaneously at the beginning of the projection. Under this instantaneous parallel interest rate shock, with a static balance sheet NII simulation, the Company is moderately asset sensitive in the initial year, as the Company’s large variable rate loan portfolio reprices the full amount of the assumed change in interest rates, while the large retail savings and short-term retail certificates of deposits portfolio will reprice with an assumed beta. The Company is slightly asset sensitive in the second year of the projection due to interest rates increasing or decreasing for the full year, the Company’s loan portfolio continuing to reprice, and also due to the other assumptions used in the analysis as noted previously. Interest rates do not normally move all at once or evenly over time, but management believes that the analysis is useful to understanding the potential direction and magnitude of net interest income changes due to changing interest rates.
The EVE analysis shows that the Company would theoretically lose market value in a rising rate environment. This is largely driven by the Company’s longer asset duration, primarily consisting of investments and loans, versus the shorter duration of its funding portfolio, primarily consisting of retail savings and short-term retail certificates of deposits.
The NII and EVE simulation analysis shown above is only an estimate of interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time without growth considerations. The Company regularly models various forecasted rate projections with non-parallel shifts that are reflective of potential current rate environment outcomes using the Company’s assumed growth projections. Under these scenarios, the Company’s interest rate risk profile may increase in asset sensitivity, decrease in asset sensitivity, or depending on the scenario and timing of anticipated rate changes, may transition to a liability sensitive interest rate risk profile. Regular, robust modeling of various interest rate outcomes allows the Company to properly assess and manage potential risks from various rate shifts.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
An evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13(a)-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer as of September 30, 2025, the last day of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2025, in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is (i) accumulated and communicated to management (including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures, and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms.
The conclusion that disclosure controls and procedures were not effective was due to the presence of material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) as previously disclosed in Part II, Item 9A of the Company's annual report on Form 10-K/A for the year ended December 31, 2024.
Remediation Plan for Material Weaknesses in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In response to the material weaknesses, the Company's remediation status is outlined below:
Loan review process
The Company has implemented changes to its internal control over financial reporting to enhance the control environment and strengthen communication protocols in connection with the loan review process. The Company's remediation efforts have focused on enhanced internal control trainings for individuals responsible for the risk assessment, design, monitoring and documentation of the Company's loan review process and increased reporting to the Company's Risk Committee of the Board of Directors through the Company's independent loan review function.
Cash flow process
The Company is implementing enhancements in preparation and review controls to ensure underlying participation loan information used is complete and accurate, is representative of business activities and is aligned with disclosure requirements. In addition, the Company will provide training specific to the Statement of Cash Flows classification to ensure compliance with GAAP for lending activities, including internal control considerations with a focus on risk assessment, design and monitoring.
As of the date of this filing, the Company's remediation efforts are ongoing and the material weaknesses have not yet been fully remediated. The material weaknesses will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Other than the implementation of the measures outlined in the remediation plan for the material weaknesses described above, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
