Executive Overview

The Corporation’s consolidated net income, earnings per share and return on average assets and average equity were as follows:

The financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2026 included a pre-tax charge of $5.2 million ($4.1 million after-tax), or $0.15 diluted earnings per share, related to a valuation adjustment on an other real estate owned (OREO) property. The adjustment was recorded based on an updated appraisal which reflects the property's estimated fair value less costs to sell. The property was initially transferred to OREO during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and was listed for sale during the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2026 also included tax-free bank owned life insurance (BOLI) death benefit proceeds of $708 thousand, which represented $0.03 diluted earnings per share.

The financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2026 included tax-free BOLI death benefit proceeds of $1.1 million, which represented $0.04 diluted earnings per share. In addition, the financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2026 included a $427 thousand restructuring charge ($337 thousand after-tax), or $0.01 diluted earnings per share, related to the planned closure of two underutilized facilities: a financial center and a limited purpose banking office. The financial results for the six months ended June 30, 2025 included tax-free BOLI death benefit proceeds of $1.1 million, which represented $0.04 diluted earnings per share.

The information contained in this report may contain forward-looking statements, including statements relating to the Corporation and its financial condition and results of operations that involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions. The Corporation's actual results may differ materially from those anticipated, expected or projected as discussed in forward-looking statements. A discussion of forward-looking statements and factors that might cause such a difference includes those discussed in Part I, "Forward-Looking Statements," Item 1A. "Risk Factors," as well as those within this Management's Discussion and Analysis ("MD&A") of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and elsewhere in this report.

Critical Accounting Policies

The discussion below outlines the Corporation's critical accounting policies. For further information regarding accounting policies, refer to Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" included in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 8 of this Form 10-K.

In order to prepare the Corporation's financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the Corporation's financial statements. There are uncertainties inherent in making these estimates and assumptions. Certain critical accounting policies could materially affect the results of operations and financial condition of the Corporation should changes in circumstances require a change in related estimates or assumptions. The Corporation has identified the fair value measurement of investment securities available-for-sale and the calculation of the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases as critical accounting policies.

Fair Value Measurement of Investment Securities Available-for-Sale: The Corporation designates its investment securities as held-to-maturity, available-for-sale or trading. Each of these designations affords different treatment on the balance sheet and statement of income for market value changes affecting securities. Should evidence emerge that indicates that management's intent or ability to manage the securities as originally asserted is not supportable, securities with the held-to-maturity or available-for-sale designations may be re-categorized, which may result in adjustments to either the balance sheet or statement of income.

Fair values for securities are determined using independent pricing services and market-participating brokers. The independent pricing service utilizes evaluated pricing models that vary by asset class and incorporate available trade, bid and other market information for structured securities, cash flows and, when available, loan performance data. Because many fixed income securities do not trade on a daily basis, the pricing service's evaluated pricing applications apply information as applicable through processes, such as benchmarking of like securities, sector groupings, and matrix pricing, to prepare evaluations. If at any time, the pricing service determines that it does not have sufficient verifiable information to value a particular security, the Corporation will utilize valuations from another pricing service. Management has a sufficient understanding of the third-party service's valuation models, assumptions and inputs used in determining the fair value of securities to enable management to maintain an appropriate system of internal control.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loan and Leases: The Allowance for Credit Losses ("ACL") on loans and leases uses techniques that estimate losses on pools of loans and leases that share similar risk characteristics and specifically identify losses on individual loans and leases that do not share similar risk characteristics with others. The adequacy of these allowances is sensitive to changes in current and forecasted economic conditions that may affect the ability of borrowers to make contractual payments as well as the value of the collateral securing such payments. Management utilizes a discounted cash flow ("DCF") model to calculate the present value of the expected cash flows for pools of loans and leases that share similar risk characteristics and compares the results of this calculation to the amortized cost basis to determine its allowance for credit loss balance. The key assumptions used in the model are (1) probability of default, (2) loss given default, (3) prepayment and curtailment rates, (4) recovery delay (5) reasonable and supportable economic forecasts, (6) forecast reversion period, (7) expected recoveries on charged-off loans, and (8) discount rate. Although management believes it uses the best information available to establish the ACL, future adjustments to the ACL may be necessary and the Corporation’s results of operations could be adversely affected if circumstances differ substantially from the assumptions used in making the determinations. While management believes it has established the ACL in conformity with U.S. GAAP, our regulators, in reviewing the loan portfolio, may request us to increase our ACL based on judgments different from ours. In addition, because future events affecting

30

Table of Contents

borrowers and collateral cannot be predicted without uncertainty, the existing ACL may not be adequate or increases may be necessary should the quality of any loans or leases deteriorate or if there are changes to the assumptions noted above. Any material increase in the ACL would adversely affect the Corporation’s financial condition and results of operations.

The following table indicates the economic factors utilized in the Corporation's CECL model.

Economic Factors

Sensitivity Analysis

The below table indicates the impact to the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases if the factors described below were adjusted in the Corporation's CECL model.

Readers of the Corporation’s financial statements should be aware that the estimates and assumptions used in the Corporation’s current financial statements may need to be updated in future financial presentations for changes in circumstances, business or economic conditions in order to fairly represent the condition of the Corporation at that time.

Results of Operations

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the difference between interest earned primarily on loans, leases and investment securities and interest paid on deposits, borrowings, long-term debt and subordinated notes. Net interest income is the principal source of the Corporation's revenue. Table 1 presents the Corporation's average balances, tax-equivalent interest income, interest expense, tax-equivalent yields earned on average assets, cost of average liabilities, and shareholders' equity on a tax-equivalent basis for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023. The tax-equivalent net interest margin is tax-equivalent net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets. The tax-equivalent net interest spread represents the weighted average tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets less the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The effect of net interest-free funding sources represents the effect on the net interest margin of net funding provided by noninterest-earning assets, noninterest-bearing liabilities and shareholders' equity. Table 2 analyzes the changes in the tax-equivalent net interest income for the periods broken down by their rate and volume components.

2025 versus 2024

Reported net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $240.2 million, an increase of $29.0 million, or 13.7%, from the prior year. Net interest income, on a tax-equivalent basis, for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $241.9 million, an increase of $29.5 million, or 13.9%, from the prior year. An increase in tax-equivalent interest income of $18.6 million was driven by increased loan yields, and increases in the average balance of average interest-earning assets, as well as a decrease of $10.9 million in interest expense, which was largely driven by a decrease in the cost of interest-bearing deposits and a decrease in the average balance of borrowings. This was offset by an increase in the average balance of deposits. The net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis for the year ended December 31, 2025 was 3.14% compared to 2.86% for 2024.

Table of Contents

2024 versus 2023

Reported net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $211.2 million, a decrease of $8.8 million, or 4.0%, from the prior year. Net interest income, on a tax-equivalent basis, for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $212.3 million, a decrease of $8.9 million, or 4.0%, from the prior year. An increase in tax-equivalent interest income of $40.6 million, driven by increases in asset yields, including loan and investment yields, and increases in the average balance of average interest-earning assets was outpaced by an increase in interest expense of $49.5 million, which was largely driven by an increase in the cost of, and the average balances of, interest-bearing deposits. The net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis for the year ended December 31, 2024 was 2.86% compared to 3.12% for 2023. The net interest margin decrease was attributable to the increase in interest rates and the liability sensitivity of the Corporation's balance sheet.

2025 versus 2024

Noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $87.9 million, a decrease of $194 thousand, or 0.2%, compared to 2024.

Other service fee income decreased $3.8 million, or 25.8%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to the net gain of $3.4 million generated from the sale of mortgage servicing rights associated with $591.1 million of serviced loans in the first quarter of 2024. Net gain on mortgage banking activities decreased $1.9 million, or 36.1%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to decreased salable volume and lower margins.

BOLI income increased $2.0 million, or 51.5%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to death benefit claims of $2.1 million received during the year. Investment advisory commission and fee income increased $1.6 million, or 7.5%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to increased assets under management and supervision driven by market appreciation. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $909 thousand, or 11.2%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily due to an increase of $976 thousand in treasury management fees. Other income increased $592 thousand, or 14.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2025, primarily driven by a $620 thousand increase in fees on risk participation agreements for interest rate swaps due to increased demand.

Investment advisory commission and fee income increased $2.3 million, or 12.4%, for the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to increased assets under management and supervision driven by new business and market appreciation. Net gain on mortgage banking activities increased $1.6 million, or 42.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to increased salable volume and favorable margins. Insurance commission and fee income increased $1.3 million, or 6.2%, for the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to increases of $1.0 million in premiums for commercial lines and $435 thousand in contingent commission income. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $1.0 million, or 14.7%, for the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to an increase of $950 thousand in treasury management fees.

Other income increased $1.2 million, or 40.0%, for the year ended December 31, 2024. Gains on the sale of Small Business Administration loans increased $1.9 million due to increased sale volume, partially offset by a $605 thousand decrease in interest rate swap income due to decreased demand.

Noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $198.0 million, an increase of $630 thousand, or 0.3%, compared to 2023.

38

Table of Contents

Salaries, benefits and commissions increased $3.6 million, or 3.0%, for the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to an increase in incentive compensation due to increased profitability in the current year.

Professional fees decreased $739 thousand, or 10.3%, for the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to a decrease of $1.0 million of consulting fees due to the costs of implementing our digital initiative in the prior year. Other expense decreased $842 thousand, or 2.9%, primarily driven by decreases in retirement plan costs of $857 thousand. Additionally, the year ended December 31, 2023 included $1.5 million in restructuring charges associated with the Corporation's financial service center optimization and expense management strategies deployed in response to macroeconomic headwinds.

Tax Provision

The provision for income taxes was $22.6 million, $19.4 million and $17.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively, at effective rates of 19.9%, 20.3% and 19.8%, respectively. The effective tax rates reflected the benefits of tax-exempt income from investments in municipal securities and loans and leases. Excluding this impact, the effective tax rates were 21.7%, 22.1% and 21.7% for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate for 2025 compared to 2024 was primarily due to the favorable impact from the proceeds of BOLI death benefits. The increase in the effective tax rate for 2024 compared to 2023 was primarily due to increases in state tax rates and the impact of stock-based compensation during the year.

Financial Condition

ASSETS

The following table presents assets at the dates indicated:

Cash and Interest-Earning Deposits

Cash and interest-earning deposits increased $224.9 million, or 68.4%, from December 31, 2024, primarily due to increased interest-earning deposits at the Federal Reserve Bank of $231.7 million due to increases in deposits outpacing loan growth, partially offset by the repayment of subordinated notes and long-term debt.

Investment Securities

Total investment securities at December 31, 2025 increased $2.3 million, or 0.5%, from December 31, 2024. Purchases of $60.3 million, which were primarily residential mortgage-backed securities, increases in the fair value of available-for-sale investment securities of $17.2 million and a reversal of provision for credit losses of $828 thousand were partially offset by maturities and pay-downs of $68.1 million, sales of $6.9 million and net amortization of purchased premiums and discounts of $1.0 million.

Table 3—Investment Securities

The following table shows the carrying amount of investment securities, net of allowance for credit losses, at the dates indicated. Held-to-maturity, available-for-sale and equity security portfolios are combined.

Table 4—Investment Securities (Yields)

The following table shows the maturity distribution and weighted average yields of investment securities at amortized cost at December 31, 2025. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because debt issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations without call or prepayment penalties. Therefore, the stated yield may not be recognized in future periods. Additionally, residential mortgage-backed securities, which are collateralized by residential mortgage loans, typically prepay at a rate faster than the stated maturity. The weighted average yield is calculated by dividing income, which has not been tax effected on tax-exempt obligations, within each contractual maturity range by the outstanding amount of the related investment. Held-to-maturity and available-for-sale portfolios are combined, net of allowance for credit losses.

At December 31, 2025, the Corporation had no reportable investments in any single issuer representing more than 10% of shareholders' equity.

Loans and Leases

Gross loans and leases held for investment at December 31, 2025 increased $88.2 million, or 1.3%, from December 31, 2024. The growth in gross loans and leases held for investment was primarily due to increases in construction, commercial real estate and home equity loans, partially offset by decreases in commercial and residential mortgage loans and lease financings.

Table of Contents

Table 5—Loan and Lease Maturities and Sensitivity to Changes in Interest Rates

The following table presents the maturity schedule of the loan and lease portfolio at December 31, 2025. Loans with variable rates or floating interest rates include adjustable rate instruments that may have longer than one month, and in some instances, multiple years of a fixed rate interest period.

Asset Quality

The Bank's strategy for credit risk management focuses on having well-defined credit policies and uniform underwriting criteria and providing prompt attention to potential problem loans and leases. Performance of the loan and lease portfolio is monitored on a regular basis by Bank management and lending officers.

Nonaccrual loans and leases are loans or leases for which it is probable that not all principal and interest payments due will be collectible in accordance with the original contractual terms. Factors considered by management in determining accrual status include payment status, borrower cash flows, collateral value and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due.

At December 31, 2025, nonaccrual loans and leases were $13.7 million and had a related allowance for credit losses on loans and leases of $3.0 million. At December 31, 2024, nonaccrual loans and leases were $12.7 million and had a related allowance for credit losses on loans and leases of $1.9 million. During the second quarter of 2025, a $23.7 million commercial loan relationship was placed on nonaccrual status due to, among other things, suspected fraud. Subsequent to the relationship being placed on nonaccrual status, a $7.3 million charge-off was recognized during the second quarter. During the third quarter of 2025, a $1.4 million residential property associated with this relationship was transferred to other real estate owned.
