The Board of Directors, CEO, and CFO concluded on May 28, 2025, that a material impairment charge is required for two delinquent commercial real estate loans. This decision follows the receipt of bids for the collateral supporting these loans. While the loans are delinquent, the occupancy of the properties is currently sufficient to cover day-to-day operations and general maintenance.
