Overview

NBI is a financial holding company that was organized in 1986 under the laws of Virginia and is registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956. NBI common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market and is traded under the symbol “NKSH.”

NBI has two wholly-owned subsidiaries; the National Bank of Blacksburg ("NBB") and National Bankshares Financial Services, Inc. ("NBFS"). NBB is a community bank and does business as National Bank from 28 office locations and one loan production office. NBB is the source of nearly all of the Company’s revenue. NBFS does business as National Bankshares Investment Services and National Bankshares Insurance Services.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The financial information contained within our statements is, to a significant extent, based on measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value obtained when earning income, recognizing an expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. Although the economics of the Company’s transactions may not change, the timing of events that would impact the transactions could change.

Critical accounting policies are most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition or results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective, and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. If conditions occur that differ from our assumptions, depending upon the severity of such differences, the Company’s financial condition or results of operations may be materially impacted. The Company designates as critical those policies governing the ACLL and the pension plan. The Company evaluates its critical accounting estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and updates them as needed.

ACLL

The ACLL represents the Company's best estimate of current expected credit losses on loans over the expected life as of the measurement date. The estimation utilizes internal and peer historical credit loss experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The results are also dependent upon management's selection of methodologies, loan credit risk ratings, and determination of the impact of internal and external variables.

The Company employs a discounted cash flow ("DCF") model whereby cash flows are projected according to each loan's contractual terms and modified by internal historical prepayment rates. Cash flows are then discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, modified by loss rates determined using the probability of default ("PD") and loss given default ("LGD") sourced from internal and peer historical experience, and a forecast variable. Application of historical prepayment rates to project cash flows lowers the ACLL. Historical prepayment rates may not be representative of realized prepayment rates. Similarly, historical loss experience modified by the forecast variable may not be representative of realized loss experience.

Key to loss rate application is the Company's risk grading system, which is governed by a robust policy. Loss rates are calculated and applied by risk grade. Management relies upon risk grades to identify loans with risk characteristics that are different from other loans within a segment. Loans graded special mention or classified and that exceed a value threshold are individually evaluated. If management determines that a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, expected credit losses are based on the fair value of the collateral at the measurement date, adjusted for estimated selling costs if satisfaction of the loan depends on the sale of the collateral. Specific reserves for other individually evaluated loans are estimated using a DCF approach. Cash flows are determined by analyzing the borrower's ability to repay and economic conditions affecting the borrower's industry, discounted at loss rates appropriate to the risk grade. The ultimate recoverability of the loan may be higher or lower than the specific reserve.

The Company adjusts collectively-evaluated DCF model results for qualitative risk factors that are not inherent in historical losses, but are relevant in assessing expected credit losses within the loan portfolio. Risks considered include the impact of changes in(i) economic conditions, (ii) the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, (iii) the existence, growth and effect of any concentrations in credit, (iv) lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards and practices, (v) the quality of the credit review function, (vi) the experience, ability and depth of lending management and staff, (vii) the volume and severity of past due loans, (viii)the value of underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans, and (ix) other factors such as the regulatory, legal and competitive environments. Because of low loss rate history, statistical correlation between losses and qualitative risk factors is not possible and adjustments are based upon management judgment. Management assesses each factor and determines the adjustment to the ACLL based upon a documented and consistently applied methodology. Management's assessment my be higher or lower than actual impact.

The estimation of the ACLL involves analysis of internal and external variables, methodologies, assumptions and management’s judgment and experience. These judgments are inherently subjective and actual losses could be greater or less than the estimate.Future estimates of the ACLL could increase or decrease based on changes in the financial condition of individual borrowers,concentrations of various types of loans, economic conditions or the markets in which collateral may be sold. The estimate of the ACLL determines the amount of provision expense and directly affects our financial results.

Pension Plan

Pension obligations are determined through actuarial calculations based upon significant assumptions, including the IRS mortality table, an effective interest rate of 5.35% for 2026 and 5.32% for 2025, a discount rate of 5.25% for 2026 and 5.50% for 2025, anticipated rate of compensation increases of 4% for both 2026 and 2025, and an expected long-term rate of return of 7.50% for 2026 and 2025. Actual outcomes could vary from the assumptions and result in underaccrual or overaccrual of pension obligations.

For information on the Company's critical accounting policies, please refer to the Company’s 2025 Form 10-K, Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

Performance Summary

Key to understanding the Company’s results of operations and financial position is the interest rate environment. The Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts between September 2025 and December 2025 eased deposit pricing pressure but remain at a level that allows adjustable rate loans to reprice higher than their previous rates. The Company completed the core system conversion during the second quarter of 2025, with related expenses presented in core system conversion expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Expanded discussion is provided in subsequent sections.

The following table presents the Company’s key performance indicators for the periods indicated.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP. The financial information contained within our statements is, to a significant extent, based on measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. A variety of factors could affect the ultimate value obtained when earning income, recognizing expense, recovering an asset or relieving a liability. Although the economics of the Company’s transactions may not change, the timing of events that would impact the transactions could change.

Critical accounting policies are most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition or results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective, and complex judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain. If conditions occur that differ from our assumptions, depending upon the severity of such differences, the Company’s financial condition or results of operations may be materially impacted. The Company designates as critical those policies governing the ACLL and the pension plan. The Company evaluates its critical accounting estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and updates them as needed.

ACLL

The ACLL represents the Company's best estimate of current expected credit losses on loans over the expected life as of the measurement date. The estimation utilizes internal and peer historical credit loss experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The results are also dependent upon management's selection of methodologies, loan credit risk ratings, and determination of the impact of internal and external variables.

The Company employs a discounted cash flow ("DCF") model whereby cash flows are projected according to each loan's contractual terms and modified by internal historical prepayment rates. Cash flows are then discounted at the loan's effective interest rate, modified by loss rates determined using the probability of default ("PD") and loss given default ("LGD") sourced from internal and peer historical experience, and a forecast variable. Application of historical prepayment rates to project cash flows lowers the ACLL. Historical prepayment rates may not be representative of realized prepayment rates. Similarly, historical loss experience modified by the forecast variable may not be representative of realized loss experience.

Key to loss rate application is the Company's risk grading system, which is governed by a robust policy. Loss rates are calculated and applied by risk grade. Management relies upon risk grades to identify loans with risk characteristics that are different from other loans within a segment. Loans graded special mention or classified and that exceed a value threshold are individually evaluated. If management determines that a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, expected credit losses are based on the fair value of the collateral at the measurement date, adjusted for estimated selling costs if satisfaction of the loan depends on the sale of the collateral. Specific reserves for other individually evaluated loans are estimated using a DCF approach. Cash flows are determined by analyzing the borrower's ability to repay and economic conditions affecting the borrower's industry, discounted at loss rates appropriate to the risk grade. The ultimate recoverability of the loan may be higher or lower than the specific reserve.

The Company adjusts collectively-evaluated DCF model results for qualitative risk factors that are not inherent in historical losses, but are relevant in assessing expected credit losses within the loan portfolio. Risks considered include the impact of changes in (i) economic conditions, (ii) the nature and volume of the loan portfolio, (iii) the existence, growth and effect of any concentrations in credit, (iv) lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards and practices, (v) the quality of the credit review function, (vi) the experience, ability and depth of lending management and staff, (vii) the volume and severity of past due loans, (viii) the value of underlying collateral for collateral-dependent loans, and (ix) other factors such as the regulatory, legal and competitive environments. Because of low loss rate history, statistical correlation between losses and qualitative risk factors is not possible and adjustments are based upon management judgment. Management assesses each factor and determines the adjustment to the ACLL based upon a documented and consistently applied methodology. Management's assessment my be higher or lower than actual impact.

The estimation of the ACLL involves analysis of internal and external variables, methodologies, assumptions and management’s judgment and experience. These judgments are inherently subjective and actual losses could be greater or less than the estimate. Future estimates of the ACLL could increase or decrease based on changes in the financial condition of individual borrowers, concentrations of various types of loans, economic conditions or the markets in which collateral may be sold. The estimate of the ACLL determines the amount of provision expense and directly affects our financial results. Please refer to Note 1 and Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Pension Plan

Pension obligations are determined through actuarial calculations based upon significant assumptions, including the IRS mortality table, an effective interest rate of 5.32% for December 31, 2025 and 5.24% for December 31, 2024, a discount rate of 5.50% for December 31, 2025 and 4.75% for December 31, 2024, anticipated rate of compensation increases of 4% for both reporting dates, and an expected long-term rate of return of 7.50% for both reporting dates. Actual outcomes could vary from the assumptions and result in underaccrual or overaccrual of pension obligations. Please refer to Note 1 and Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information on these and other accounting policies.

Performance Summary

Key to understanding the Company’s results of operations and financial position is the interest rate environment, the core system conversion in 2025 and the acquisition of FCB in 2024.

The Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts between September 2024 and December 2025 eased deposit pricing pressure for the fourth quarter of 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2025. The interest rate environment continues at a level that allows adjustable rate loans to reprice higher than their previous rates.

The Company completed the core system conversion of both the former FCB and the legacy bank during the second quarter of 2025, with related expenses presented in core system conversion expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The acquisition of FCB on June 1, 2024 expanded the Company's footprint into desirable markets and increased its growth potential. The acquisition added to the balance sheet $118,743 in loans, $129,717 in deposits and $14,299 in equity. The Company also recorded one-time expenses of $2,916 and provision for credit loss of $1,290 associated with the merger. For more information on the acquisition, see Note 22: Business Combination.

Summary information on results of operations, changes in key balances and asset quality is presented below. Expanded discussion is provided in subsequent sections.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This report refers to certain financial measures that are computed on a basis other than GAAP (“non-GAAP”). The Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operational performance and to enhance investors’ overall understanding of such financial performance. The methodology for determining these non-GAAP measures may differ among companies. Non-GAAP measures are supplemental and not a substitute for, or more important than, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Details on non-GAAP measures follow.

Net Interest Margin

The Company uses the net interest margin (non-GAAP) to measure profitability of interest generating activities, as a percentage of total interest-earning assets. The Company’s net interest margin is calculated on a fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”) basis. The portion of interest income that is nontaxable is grossed up to the tax equivalent by adding the tax benefit based on a tax rate of 21%. Annualized FTE net interest income is divided by total average earning assets to calculate the net interest margin. The following tables present the reconciliation of tax equivalent net interest income, which is not a measurement under GAAP, to net interest income, for the periods indicated.

Efficiency Ratio

The efficiency ratio (non-GAAP) is computed by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of FTE net interest income and noninterest income, excluding certain items the Company’s management deems unusual or non-recurring. This is a non-GAAP financial measure that the Company believes provides investors with important information regarding operational efficiency. The components of the efficiency ratio calculation for the periods indicated are summarized in the following table.

Organic growth accounted for the increase in loans, net of deferred fees and costs and the ACLL, when December 31, 2025 is compared with December 31, 2024. While the Federal Reserve's rate cuts in 2024 and 2025 were favorable for the net interest margin, the interest rate environment continues to restrain loan demand.

Securities available for sale increased from the prior year due to purchases of $83,872 and improvement in fair value, which moves inversely to interest rate changes and expectations of interest rate changes. Further detail is provided in the “Balance Sheet” section below.

Customer deposits decreased when December 31, 2025 is compared with December 31, 2024. The Company manages deposits and deposit pricing in consideration of loan demand, optimizing the net interest margin, liquidity needs, and strategic initiatives. During 2025, the Company strategically lowered pricing on time deposits, resulting in lower time deposit balances and improved deposit costs.

The increase in stockholders’ equity reflects an improvement in unrealized losses on securities available for sale and retained net income.

The Company monitors asset quality indicators in managing credit risk and in determining the ACLL and provision for credit losses. Nonaccrual loans improved when December 31, 2025 is compared with December 31, 2024, due to the return of one loan relationship to accrual status. The net charge-off ratio remained at the same low level and accruing loans past due 90 days or more increased slightly, but remain low.

The Company dedicates resources to resolving problem assets, and exposure to loss is somewhat mitigated by collateralization. More information about nonaccrual and past due loans is provided in Note 1 and Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Income Statement

The following provides information on the results of operations for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Net Interest Income

The Company’s primary source of revenue is net interest income, which is the difference between the interest and fees earned on loans and investments and the interest paid on customer deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is affected by various factors, including the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy, U.S. fiscal policy, competitive pressure, the level and composition of the interest-earning assets and the composition of interest-bearing liabilities. Changes in the Federal Reserve’s target interest rate immediately affect the yield on the Company’s interest-bearing deposits in correspondent banks and affect other interest-earning assets over time.

The net interest margin for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased when compared with the year ended December 31, 2024. Loans repriced upward while the Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts resulted in lower yields on adjustable rate securities and interest

25

Table of Contents

bearing deposit assets, as well as lower cost of deposits. Current interest rates are still at a level that will allow improved yield on loans as adjustable loans reach repricing dates.

The frequency and/or magnitude of future changes in market interest are difficult to predict and may have a greater short-term impact on net interest income than adjustments by management. Please refer to the section titled “Analysis of Changes In Interest Income and Interest Expense” for further information related to rate and volume changes.

Interest Rate Sensitivity

Interest rate risk is the risk to earnings or capital arising from movements in market interest rates. When interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities reprice at different times or in different degrees or when call options are exercised, in response to change in market interest rates, future net interest income is impacted. When interest-earning assets mature or re-price more quickly than interest-bearing liabilities, the balance sheet is considered “asset sensitive”. An asset sensitive position will produce relatively more net interest income when interest rates rise and less net interest income when rates decline. Conversely, when interest-bearing liabilities mature or re-price more quickly than interest-earning assets in a given period, the balance sheet is considered “liability sensitive”. A liability sensitive position will produce relatively more net interest income when interest rates fall and less net interest income when rates increase.

The Company considers interest rate risk to be a significant risk and manages its exposure through policies approved by its Asset Liability Committee ("ALCO") and Board of Directors. ALCO reviews periodic reports of the Company's interest rate risk position, including results of simulation analysis. Simulation analysis applies interest rate shocks, hypothetical immediate shifts in interest rates, to the Company’s financial instruments and determines the impact to projected one-year net interest income and other key measures. The following table shows the results of rate shocks on net interest income projected for one year from the reporting date.

Results of the net interest income simulation indicate that the Company is liability sensitive as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The simulation process requires certain estimates and assumptions including, but not limited to, asset growth, the mix of assets and liabilities, the interest rate environment and local and national economic conditions. Asset growth and the mix of

27

Table of Contents

assets can, to a degree, be influenced by management. Other areas, such as the interest rate environment and economic factors, cannot be controlled. In addition, competitive pressures can make it difficult to price deposits and loans in a manner that optimally minimizes interest rate risk. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to the timing, magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes; changes in market conditions and customer behavior; and changes in management strategies.

While the asset/liability management program is designed to protect the Company over the long term, it does not provide near-term protection from interest rate shocks, as interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities do not by their nature move up or down in tandem in response to changes in the overall rate environment. The Company’s profitability in the near-term may be temporarily negatively affected in a period of rapidly rising or rapidly falling rates, because it takes some time for the Company’s portfolio to reflect changes to offering rates in response to a new interest rate environment.

(Recovery of) Provision for Credit Losses

The Company recovered provision of $16 for the year ended December 31, 2025 , made up of a recovery of credit losses on funded loans of $63 partially offset by provision for credit losses on unfunded loan balances of $47. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded a net provision of $1,227, which included a provision of $1,290 for non-PCD loans recorded upon acquisition of FCB, offset by $48 recovery reflecting changes in the Company's assessment of credit risk for both funded and unfunded loan balances. More information about the ACLL is provided in “Balance Sheet – Loans – Allowance for Credit Losses” below and in Notes 1 and 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Service charges on deposit accounts increased when the year ended December 31, 2025 is compared with the year ended December 31, 2024, due to increased customer use of the Bank’s overdraft program, ATM fees and wire transfer fees.

Other service charges and fees decreased when 2025 is compared with 2024, due to nonrecurring fee income received in 2024 and lower fees associated with non-customer use of NBB ATMs. Other service charges and fees also include charges for official checks, income from the sale of checks to customers, safe deposit box rent, and income from commissions on the sale of credit life, accident and health insurance.

Credit and debit card fees, net, increased when 2025 is compared with 2024 due to contract re-negotiation associated with the core system conversion.

Trust income increased when the year ended December 31, 2025 is compared with the year ended December 31, 2024, reflecting the Company's investment in business development. Trust fees are generated from a number of different types of accounts, including estates, personal trusts, employee benefit trusts, investment management accounts, attorney-in-fact accounts and guardianships. Trust income varies depending on the number and type of accounts under management and financial market conditions.

The gain on sale of mortgage loans increased from 2024 to 2025 as volume improved.

Other income includes dividends, adjustments to partnership basis in investments, commissions from investment and insurance sales and other miscellaneous components. Improved commissions from investment and insurance sales and a vendor incentive payment drove the increase from 2024 to 2025.

Salaries and employee benefits, which include payroll taxes, health insurance, contributions to the employee stock ownership plan and employee 401(k) plan, pension service costs, incentives and salary continuation, increased when 2025 is compared with 2024, reflecting the addition of FCB employees and normal merit adjustments.

When the year ended December 31, 2025 is compared with the year ended December 31, 2024, occupancy, furniture and fixtures expense increased due to higher maintenance costs and depreciation related to assets acquired from FCB, infrastructure investment and the opening of the Roanoke branch.

Data processing expense decreased when the year ended December 31, 2025 is compared with the year ended December 31, 2024, reflecting savings from the core system conversion and other technology upgrades.

FDIC assessment expense increased from 2024 to 2025, due to an expanded assessment base after the FCB acquisition.

Upon acquisition of FCB in 2024, the Company recognized a core deposit intangible asset that is amortized over 10 years.

Franchise tax expense decreased from 2024 to 2025. Franchise taxes are levied by the states in which NBB operates and are based upon NBB’s total equity at the prior year-end, adjusted for real estate taxes and certain other items.

When 2025 is compared with 2024, higher legal and audit expenses drove the increase in professional services, which also includes consulting expense.

Merger-related expenses included legal, accounting, regulatory, and executive and employee severance costs associated with the FCB acquisition.

The core system conversion was completed during the second quarter of 2025 positioning the Company for future growth.

Other operating expenses decreased when the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 are compared. The category of other operating expenses includes expense for marketing and business development, supplies, non-service pension cost and charitable donations. The decrease is due to non-service pension cost, resulting from a higher expected return on plan assets when 2025 is compared with 2024, higher recognized net gain due to settlement when 2025 is compared with 2024, and a net actuarial loss in 2024 that was not recognized in 2025.

Included within other operating expense and data processing expense are expenses related to cybersecurity. These expenses include testing and vulnerability assessment, technological defenses, insurance and employee training. The cost of these measures was $409 for 2025 and $365 for 2024.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense for 2025 was $3,340 compared to $1,499 in 2024. The Company’s statutory tax rate was 21% for each year. The Company’s effective tax rates for 2025 and 2024 were 17.43% and 16.43%, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate is lower than the statutory rate of 21% primarily due to investments in tax-advantaged loans and securities. The Company's effective tax rate for 2024 was also affected by a significant portion of merger related expense that was not tax deductible. See Note 9 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information relating to income taxes.

Table of Contents

The Company charges off commercial real estate loans at the time that a loss is confirmed. When delinquency status or other information indicates that the borrower will not repay the loan, the Company considers collateral value based upon a current appraisal or internal evaluation. Any loan amount in excess of collateral value is charged off and the collateral is taken into OREO.

E.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans

The Company’s risk analysis as of December 31, 2025 determined an ACLL of $9,892, or 0.99% of loans net of deferred fees and costs. This compares with an ACLL of $10,262 as of December 31, 2024, or 1.04% of loans net of deferred fees and costs. For information on the Company’s policies on the ACLL, please refer to Note 1 and Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. To determine the appropriate level of the ACLL, the Company considers credit risk for individually evaluated loans and for groups of loans evaluated collectively.

Individually Evaluated Loans

Individually evaluated loans were $8,802 as of December 31, 2025, a decrease from $10,521 as of December 31, 2024. Please refer to Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information on the Company’s identification of individually evaluated loans. As of December 31, 2025, two individually evaluated loans were collateral dependent but were adequately collateralized and did not result in an individual allocation. The remaining individually evaluated loans were measured using the DCF method, resulting in an allocation of $106.

Collectively Evaluated Loans

Collectively evaluated loans totaled $991,124 with an ACLL of $9,786 as of December 31, 2025. At December 31, 2024, collectively evaluated loans totaled $978,092, with an allowance of $10,182.

Collectively evaluated loans are divided into classes based upon risk characteristics. Utilizing historical loss information and peer data, the Company calculates PD and LGD for each class, which is adjusted for a reasonable and supportable forecast. Cash flow projections based on each loan’s contractual terms are modified by the adjusted PD and LGD for its class. Loan classes are allocated additional loss estimates based upon the Company’s analysis of qualitative factors including economic measures, asset quality indicators, loan characteristics, and changes to internal Company policies and management.

Reasonable and Supportable Forecast

The Company applies national unemployment forecasts to project cash flows. The Company determined that 12 months represents a reasonable and supportable forecast period as of December 31, 2025, and set a period of 12 months to revert to historical losses on a straight-line basis. The forecast applied as of December 31, 2025 projects that unemployment will be stable over the next 12 months at a similar level to the forecast applied as of December 31, 2024.

Qualitative Factors: Economic

The Company sources economic data pertinent to its market from the most recently available publications, including business and personal bankruptcy filings, the residential vacancy rate and the inventory of new and existing homes.

Higher bankruptcy filings indicate heightened credit risk and increase the ACLL, while lower bankruptcy filings have a beneficial impact on credit risk. Compared with data available at December 31, 2024, business bankruptcy filings decreased while personal bankruptcy filings increased.

Residential vacancy rates and housing inventory are used to measure the health of the housing market. The housing market directly or indirectly affects all loan classes. Higher vacancy and inventory levels increase credit risk. The residential vacancy rate available at December 31, 2025 increased compared to the data incorporated into the December 31, 2024 calculation, resulting in a higher allocation. Housing inventory increased when December 31, 2025 is compared with December 31, 2024, resulting in a higher allocation.

Qualitative Factors: Asset Quality Indicators

Accruing past due loans are analyzed at the class level and compared with previous levels. Increases in past due loans indicate heightened credit risk. On a portfolio level, accruing loans past due 30-89 days increased to 0.35% of total loans at December 31, 2025, from 0.30% at December 31, 2024.

Qualitative Factors: Other Considerations

The Company considers other factors that impact credit risk, including the competitive, legal and regulatory environments, changes in lending policies and loan review, changes in lending management, and high risk loans.

Competitive, legal and regulatory environments were evaluated for changes that would affect credit risk. Higher competition for loans is deemed to increase credit risk, while lower competition is deemed to decrease credit risk. Prior allocations for the competitive and regulatory environments were evaluated and management determined that a sufficient period of time had passed so as to conclude that the impact is now integrated to loss rates, reducing the allocation. The legal environment remains in a similar posture to December 31, 2024, and no allocation was provided.

Lending policies, loan review procedures and management experience influence credit risk. Policies and procedures remain similar to those at December 31, 2024. The Company maintained an allocation to account for integration of FCB lenders.

Levels of high-risk loans are considered in the determination of the level of the ACLL. A decrease in the level of high-risk loans

32

Table of Contents

within a class decreases the required allocation for the loan class, and an increase in the level of high-risk loans within a class increases the required allocation for the loan class. Total high-risk loans increased from the level at December 31, 2024.

The Company monitors local economic news and internal indicators to consider the presence of risk that may not be reflected in its designated qualitative factors above. As of December 31, 2025, management identified local unemployment data and collection activity. An unanticipated increase in unemployment in some of the Company’s market areas during the third quarter of 2025 resulted in a local unemployment rate that exceeded national unemployment. Historically, local unemployment has been correlated with national unemployment but slightly lower. The levels moderated during the fourth quarter of 2025, but remain higher than those as of December 31, 2024. The Company also documented an increase in collection activity, that while successful, may indicate additional credit risk. The Company added an allocation to account for the change.

Unallocated Surplus

The unallocated surplus as of December 31, 2025 was $50, or 0.51% in excess of the calculated requirement. The unallocated surplus at December 31, 2024 was $50, or 0.49% in excess of the calculated requirement. The surplus provides some mitigation of current economic uncertainty that may impact credit risk.

Conclusion

The calculation of the appropriate level for the ACLL incorporates analysis of multiple factors and requires management’s prudent and informed judgment. Based on analysis of historical indicators, asset quality and economic factors, management believes the level of ACLL is reasonable for the credit risk in the loan portfolio as of December 31, 2025.

Please refer to Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on collectively evaluated loans, individually evaluated impaired loans and the unallocated portion of the allowance for credit losses on loans.

Allocation of the Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans

During 2025, the Company purchased securities in anticipation of coming maturities and to capitalize on higher interest rates. Investment decisions are managed by a subcommittee within the Company’s Asset Liability Management Committee, which monitors all of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities. In making investment decisions, management seeks to optimize yield and risk profiles, adhering to internal policy guidelines for security quality and industry and geographic concentrations.

The unrealized loss in the Company’s investment portfolio is due to interest rate risk associated with securities purchased prior to the Federal Reserve’s rate increases during 2022 and 2023. Improvement in the unrealized loss reflects lower interest rates as of December 31, 2025 when compared with December 31, 2024.

Table of Contents

Management regularly monitors the quality of the investment portfolio as part of its risk management function. Credit risk in the Company’s investment portfolio is evaluated on an individual security basis. An allowance for credit risk will be recorded if analysis indicates the presence of credit risk. As of December 31, 2025, there are no credit risk concerns with any of the Company’s securities.

Derivatives and Market Risk Exposures

The Company engages in derivative financial instruments associated with its secondary market operation, recorded within other assets and other liabilities. Please refer to Note 1 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information on derivative valuation. The Company is not a party to derivatives with off-balance sheet risks such as futures, forwards, swaps, and options.

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risks such as commitments to extend credit, standby letters of credit, and recourse obligations in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. See Note 13 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information relating to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk. Management does not plan any future involvement in high risk derivative products.

Table of Contents

The Company’s investments in mortgage-backed securities are primarily through the Government National Mortgage Association and Federal National Mortgage Association. See Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information on securities.

The Company’s securities and loans are subject to credit and interest rate risk, and its deposits are subject to interest rate risk. Management considers credit risk when a loan is granted and monitors credit risk after the loan is granted. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses to absorb losses in the collection of its loans. See Note 5 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information relating to the allowance for credit losses on loans. See Note 14 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information relating to concentrations of credit risk.

The effects of changing interest rates are primarily managed through adjustments to the loan portfolio and deposit base, to the extent competitive factors allow. Adjustments for asset and liability management are made when securities are called or mature and funds are subsequently reinvested. Securities may be sold for reasons related to credit quality, to maintain compliance with regulatory limitations or for interest rate risk management. No trading activity is planned in the foreseeable future.

See Interest Rate Sensitivity for further details on asset liability management and Note 15 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for information relating to fair value of financial instruments.

Liquidity

Liquidity measures the Company’s ability to meet its financial commitments at a reasonable cost. Demands on the Company’s liquidity include funding additional loan demand and accepting withdrawals of existing deposits. The Company has diverse liquidity sources, including customer and purchased deposits, customer repayments of loan principal and interest, sales, calls and maturities of securities, Federal Reserve discount window borrowing and FHLB advances.

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had borrowing capacity of $306,870 from the FHLB and $190,586 of borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve discount window, with no amounts advanced against those lines. The Company assumed FHLB borrowings from FCB, which it repaid during the week following acquisition. During 2025, the Company accessed FHLB and Federal Reserve discount window borrowings as part of a leveraged securities purchase strategy. The advances were fully repaid by the end of the year. The Company did not engage in purchasing deposits during 2025 or 2024.

The Company considers its security portfolio for typical liquidity needs, within accounting, legal and strategic parameters. Portions of the securities portfolio are pledged to meet state requirements for public funds deposits. Discount window borrowings also require pledged securities. Increased/decreased liquidity from public funds deposits or discount window borrowings results in increased/decreased liquidity from pledging requirements. The Company monitors public funds pledging requirements and unpledged available for sale securities accessible for liquidity needs.

Regulatory capital levels determine the Company’s ability to use purchased deposits and the Federal Reserve discount window. As of December 31, 2025, the Company is considered well capitalized and does not have any restrictions on purchased deposits or borrowing ability at the Federal Reserve discount window.

The Company monitors factors that may increase its liquidity needs. Some of these factors include deposit trends, large depositor activity, maturing deposit promotions, interest rate sensitivity, maturity and repricing timing gaps between assets and liabilities, the level of unfunded loan commitments and loan growth. As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s liquidity is sufficient to meet projected trends.

To monitor and estimate liquidity levels, the Company performs stress testing under varying assumptions on credit sensitive liabilities and the sources and amounts of balance sheet and external liquidity available to replace outflows. The Company’s Contingency Funding Plan sets forth avenues for rectifying liquidity shortfalls. As of December 31, 2025, the analysis indicated adequate liquidity under the tested scenarios.

The Company utilizes several other strategies to maintain sufficient liquidity. Loan and deposit growth are managed to keep the loan to deposit ratio within the Company’s internally-set target range. As of December 31, 2025, the loan to deposit ratio was 61.42%. The investment strategy takes into consideration the term of the investment, and securities in the available for sale portfolio are laddered based upon projected funding needs.

In the normal course of business, we enter into certain contractual obligations, including obligations to make future payments on lease arrangements, contractual commitments with depositors, and service contracts. The table below presents our significant contractual obligations as of the dates indicated, except for pension and other postretirement benefit plans, which are included in Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

In the normal course of business the Company’s banking affiliate extends lines of credit to its customers. The Bank also issues two types of standby letters of credit to customers: financial standby letters of credit that guarantee payment to facilitate customer purchases and performance letters of credit that guarantee payment if the customer fails to perform a specific obligation. Associated revenue from letters of credit was $26 in 2025. Amounts drawn upon these lines and letters of credit vary at any given time depending on the business needs of the customers. While it would be possible for customers to fully draw on approved lines of credit and for beneficiaries to call all letters of credit, historically this has not occurred. In the event of a sudden and substantial draw on these lines, the Company would manage liquidity using cash on hand, borrowing capacity, or sale of investments or loans.

The Company sells mortgages on the secondary market subject to recourse agreements. The mortgages originated must meet strict underwriting and documentation requirements for the sale to be completed. To date, no recourse provisions have ever been invoked. If the Company identified a factor or trend that indicated recourse risk, a loss reserve would be recorded.
