The total return on purchased loans does not include the effect of purchased loan charge-offs or recoveries during the period. Total return on purchased loans is considered a non-GAAP financial measure. See reconciliation in below table entitled "Total Return on Purchased Loans."

2. Deposits decreased by $125.2 million, or 3.7%, from June 30, 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to decreases in time deposits of $67.3 million, or 3.0%, compared to the prior year. The significant drivers in the change in time deposits was a decrease in brokered time deposits, which decreased $125.2 million, partially offset by an increase in Community Banking Division time deposits, which increased by $38.0 million compared to June 30, 2025.

3. Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances decreased by $3.4 million, or 1.1%, from June 30, 2025. The decrease was attributable to maturities on outstanding advances and net paydowns on amortizing advances.

4. Shareholders' equity increased by $19.4 million, or 3.9%, from June 30, 2025, primarily due to net income of $22.5 million in the quarter, partially offset by the cancellation of restricted stock to cover tax obligations on restricted stock vests, which had a $3.1 million impact on shareholders' equity.

Net income increased by $5.4 million to $22.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to net income of $17.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024.

1. Net interest and dividend income before provision for credit losses increased by $9.2 million to $48.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to $39.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to the following:

An increase in interest income earned on loans of $12.3 million, primarily due to higher average balances in the National Lending Division and SBA portfolios, partially offset by lower rates earned across the portfolios; and
An increase in interest income earned on short-term investments of $1.4 million, due to higher average balances, partially offset by lower rates earned; partially offset by,
An increase in deposit interest expense of $4.7 million, primarily due to higher average balances, partially offset by lower rates on interest-bearing deposits.

The following table summarizes interest income and related yields recognized on the loan portfolios:

The components of total income on purchased loans are set forth in the table below entitled "Total Return on Purchased Loans." When compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2024, transactional income increased by $334 thousand for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, and regularly scheduled interest and accretion increased by $8.3 million, primarily due to the increase in average balances. The total return on purchased loans for the quarter ended September 30, 2025 was 8.2%, a decrease from 8.8% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The following table details the total return on purchased loans:

	Total Return on Purchased Loans
	Three Months Ended September 30,
		2025				2024
	Income		Return (1)		Income		Return (1)

	(Dollars in thousands)
Regularly scheduled interest and accretion	$	45,440	7.80	%	$	37,160	8.38	%
Transactional income:
Release of allowance for credit losses on purchased loans		301	0.05	%		64	0.01	%
Accelerated accretion and loan fees		2,078	0.36	%		1,981	0.45	%
Total transactional income		2,379	0.41	%		2,045	0.46	%
Total	$	47,819	8.21	%	$	39,205	8.84	%

(1) The total return on purchased loans represents scheduled accretion, accelerated accretion, gains (losses) on real estate owned, release of allowance for credit losses on purchased loans, and other noninterest income recorded during the period divided by the average invested balance on an annualized basis. The total return on purchased loans does not include the effect of purchased loan charge-offs or recoveries during the period. Total return on purchased loans is considered a non-GAAP financial measure.

2. Provision for credit losses decreased by $857 thousand reflecting a credit of $435 thousand for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to a provision of $422 thousand for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily related to the decrease in the overall loan balance during the quarter.

3. Noninterest income increased by $564 thousand for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to an increase in gain on sale of SBA loans of $807 thousand, due to the change in cost structure of our arrangement with Newity LLC. There were sales of $58.4 million in SBA loans during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 as compared to sales of $63.1 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2024.

4. Noninterest expense increased by $4.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to the following:

An increase in salaries and employee benefits expense of $1.5 million, primarily due to increases in regular, stock and incentive compensation expense;
An increase in professional fees due of $342 thousand, primarily related to increased legal and audit costs; and
An increase in loan expense of $2.1 million, primarily related to increased expenses in connection with the origination of SBA loans.

5. Income tax expense increased by $1.0 million to $8.9 million, or an effective tax rate of 28.3%, for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, compared to income tax expense of $7.9 million, or an effective tax rate of 31.6%, for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. The decrease in effective tax rate is primarily due to changes in state tax law.

As of September 30, 2025, nonperforming assets totaled $35.1 million, or 0.8% of total assets, compared to $37.2 million, or 0.9% of total assets, as of June 30, 2025.

As of September 30, 2025, past due loans totaled $28.8 million, or 0.8% of total loans, compared to past due loans totaling $30.1 million, or 0.8% of total loans, as of June 30, 2025.

As of September 30, 2025, the Bank's Tier 1 leverage capital ratio was 12.2%, compared to 11.6% at June 30, 2025, and the Bank's Total risk-based capital ratio was 15.1% at September 30, 2025, compared to 14.7% at June 30, 2025. Capital ratios increased primarily due increased retained earnings.

(1) The net interest rate spread represents the difference between the weighted-average yield on interest-earning assets and the weighted-average cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the period.

(2) The net interest margin represents net interest income as a percent of average interest-earning assets for the period.

(3) The efficiency ratio represents noninterest expense divided by the sum of net interest income (before the credit loss provision) plus noninterest income.

(4) For purposes of calculating this ratio, commercial real estate includes all non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans defined as such by regulatory guidance, including all land development and construction loans.

(5) Tangible book value per share represents total shareholders' equity less the sum of preferred stock and intangible assets divided by common shares outstanding.
