Results of Operations

Net Income

Net income was $16.8 million for the second quarter of 2025, an increase of $529,000, or 3.2%, from $16.3 million for the first quarter of 2025. This increase was primarily due to an increase of net interest income of $1.6 million and an increase in noninterest income of $277,000, offset by an increase in income tax expense of $1.1 million and an increase in noninterest expense of $314,000. Net income decreased by $111,000, or 0.7%, in the second quarter of 2025 compared to net income of $16.9 million for the second quarter of 2024. This decrease was due to increases in noninterest expense of $1.1 million, income tax expense of $413,000 and provision for credit losses of $257,000, offset by increases in net interest income of $1.5 million and noninterest income of $174,000.

Net income was $33.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $1.6 million, or 4.9%, from $31.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This increase was due to an increase in net interest income of $4.9 million and an increase in noninterest income of $62,000, offset by an increase in noninterest expense of $2.5 million, an increase in provision for credit losses of $532,000 and an increase in income tax expense of $390,000.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Interest income totaled $54.0 million for the second quarter of 2025, an increase of $1.5 million, or 2.9%, from the previous quarter, primarily due to a $72.5 million increase in the average interest-earning cash and fed funds sold balance and a nine basis points increase in the loan yield, offset by a 16 basis points decrease in the total investments yield and a $34.1 million decrease in average loan balances. As compared to the second quarter of 2024, interest income for the second quarter of 2025 decreased by $59,000, or 0.1%, primarily due to a 169 basis points decrease in the total investments yield, offset by a $41.4 million increase in the average total investments balance, a $5.7 million increase in average loan balances and a three basis points increase in the loan yield.

Interest expense totaled $21.9 million for the second quarter of 2025, a decrease of $94,000, or 0.4%, from the previous quarter, primarily due to a 33 basis points decrease in time deposit costs coupled with a $40.0 million decrease in the average time deposits balance, offset by a $36.2 million increase in the average borrowings balance. As compared to the second quarter of 2024, interest expense for the second quarter of 2025 decreased by $1.5 million, or 6.5%, primarily due to a 38 basis points decrease in deposit costs coupled with a $22.6 million decrease in average deposit balances, offset by a 13 basis points increase in borrowing costs and a $56.9 million increase in the average borrowings balance. The Company currently has interest rate derivative agreements totaling $950.0 million that are designated as cash flow hedges of our deposit accounts indexed to the Effective Federal Funds Rate (currently 4.33%). The weighted average pay rate for these interest rate derivatives is 2.70%. During the second quarter of 2025, we recorded a credit to interest expense of $4.2 million

from the benefit received on these interest rate derivatives compared to a benefit of $4.3 million and $6.5 million recorded during the first quarter of 2025 and the second quarter of 2024, respectively.

The net interest margin for the second quarter of 2025 was 3.77% compared to 3.67% for the previous quarter, an increase of ten basis points. The yield on average interest-earning assets for the second quarter of 2025 increased by three basis points to 6.34% from 6.31% for the previous quarter, while the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities for the second quarter of 2025 decreased by nine basis points to 3.39% from 3.48% for the previous quarter. Average earning assets increased by $43.3 million from the previous quarter, due to an increase of $77.3 million in average total investments, offset by a decrease of $34.1 million in average loan balances. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $27.5 million from the previous quarter as average borrowings increased by $36.2 million while average interest-bearing deposits decreased by $8.6 million.

As compared to the same period in 2024, the net interest margin for the second quarter of 2025 increased by 11 basis points to 3.77% from 3.66%, primarily due to a 29 basis points decrease in the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities of $2.59 billion, offset by an 11 basis points decrease in the yield on average interest-earning assets of $3.42 billion. Average earning assets for the second quarter of 2025 increased by $47.1 million from the second quarter of 2024, due to a $41.4 million increase in average total investments and a $5.7 million increase in average loans. Average interest-bearing liabilities for the second quarter of 2025 increased by $34.4 million from the second quarter of 2024, driven by the increase in average borrowings of $56.9 million, offset by a $22.6 decrease in average interest-bearing deposits.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2025 was $5.7 million, an increase of $277,000, or 5.1%, from the first quarter of 2025, primarily due to higher gains on sale and servicing income from our residential mortgage loans, mortgage origination fees, and other income, offset by lower gains on sale and servicing income from our Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans. SBA loan sales totaled $20.7 million (sales premium of 5.66%) during the second quarter of 2025 compared to $16.6 million (sales premium of 5.97%) during the first quarter of 2025. Mortgage loan originations totaled $93.2 million during the second quarter 2025 compared to $91.1 million during the first quarter of 2025.

During the second quarter of 2025, we recorded a $345,000 fair value adjustment charge on our SBA servicing asset compared to a fair value adjustment charge of $104,000 during the first quarter of 2025. We also recorded a $28,000 fair value impairment recovery on our mortgage servicing asset during the second quarter of 2025 compared to a $42,000 fair value impairment charge recorded during the first quarter of 2025.

Compared to the second quarter of 2024, noninterest income for the second quarter of 2025 increased by $174,000, or 3.1%, primarily due to higher gains on sale and servicing income from our SBA loans and other income partially from unrealized gains recognized on our equity securities and increased bank owned life insurance income, offset by decreases in gains on sale and servicing income from our residential mortgage loans. During the second quarter of 2024, we recorded a $503,000 fair value adjustment charge on our SBA servicing asset.

Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 totaled $11.2 million, an increase of $62,000, or 0.6%, from the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to higher gains on sale of SBA loans, mortgage servicing income and other income from unrealized gains recognized on our equity securities and increased bank

owned life insurance income, offset by decreases in gains on sale of residential mortgage loans and SBA servicing income.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2025 totaled $14.1 million, an increase of $314,000, or 2.3%, from $13.8 million for the first quarter of 2025. This increase was primarily attributable to higher loan related expenses, stock-based compensation expenses, security expenses and First IC merger-related expenses, partially offset by lower commissions, data processing, advertising, rent and other real estate owned related expenses. Included in other noninterest expenses during the second quarter of 2025 were $333,000 of First IC merger-related expenses.

Compared to the second quarter of 2024, noninterest expense during the second quarter of 2025 increased by $1.1 million, or 8.3%, primarily due to higher salary and employee benefits, occupancy expense, professional fees, security expense, loan related expenses and First IC merger-related expenses, offset by lower FDIC insurance premiums, data processing expenses and other real estate owned related expenses.

Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025 totaled $27.9 million, an increase of $2.5 million, or 9.9%, from $25.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024. This increase was primarily attributable to increases in salaries and employee benefits partially due to higher commissions, employee insurance and stock based compensation, as well as higher expenses related to depreciation, occupancy, data processing, security, loans and professional services. These expense increases were partially offset by lower FDIC insurance premiums, advertising expense and other real estate owned related expenses. Included in other noninterest expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2025 were $596,000 of First IC merger-related expenses.

The Company’s efficiency ratio was 37.2% for the second quarter of 2025 compared to 38.3% and 35.9% for the first quarter of 2025 and second quarter of 2024, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the efficiency ratio was 37.8% compared to 36.8% for the same period in 2024.

The $318,000 increase in total assets at June 30, 2025 compared to June 30, 2024 was primarily due to increases in loans held for investments of $31.0 million, other assets of $19.4 million, federal funds sold of $9.6 million, equity securities of $8.2 million, bank

The decrease in total deposits at June 30, 2025 compared to March 31, 2025 was due to a $33.7 million decrease in interest-bearing demand deposits, a $16.1 million decrease in money market accounts (includes $26.9 million decrease in brokered money market accounts), a $6.4 million decrease in time deposits and a $263,000 decrease in savings accounts, offset by an $8.9 million increase in noninterest-bearing demand deposits.

The provision expense recorded during the second quarter of 2025 was primarily due to the increase in general reserves allocated to our commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loan portfolios, as well as our individually analyzed loans, partially offset by the decrease in reserves allocated to our residential real estate loan portfolio. Annualized net charge-offs to average

loans for the second quarter of 2025 was 0.01%, compared to net charge-offs of 0.02% for the first quarter of 2025 and net recoveries of 0.01% for the second quarter of 2024.
