Key Financial Metrics

Material Changes vs. Prior Period

• Profitability: Net income increased by 30.0% ($193,000) compared to Q1 2025, driven by a 3.1% increase in net interest income and a 94.7% decrease in the provision for credit losses.
• Asset Composition: Net loans and leases decreased by $4.7 million (1.6%) from December 31, 2025, primarily due to the payoff of a $7.7 million multifamily loan. Conversely, interest-bearing deposits in banks increased by $4.6 million.
• Interest Rates: The yield on average interest-earning assets increased 18 basis points to 5.66%, while the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 8 basis points to 2.60%, expanding the net interest margin by 25 basis points.
• Noninterest Income: Increased 51.1% to $698,000, largely due to $168,000 in rental income from a foreclosed multifamily property and a $57,000 referral fee.
• Noninterest Expense: Increased 8.2% to $3.17 million, attributed to $98,000 in expenses related to the foreclosed property and $77,000 in technology expenses for a new online loan origination platform.

Guidance, Outlook, and Risks

• Capital Position: The Bank is "well-capitalized" under the Community Bank Leverage Ratio (CBLR) framework with a ratio of 11.97%, exceeding the 9.0% requirement.
• Liquidity: The Company maintains strong liquidity with $108.5 million in unused FHLB borrowing capacity and $8.0 million in unused correspondent bank lines. Cash and cash equivalents remained stable at $6.5 million.
• Investment Portfolio: The securities portfolio holds gross unrealized losses of $5.9 million (7.2% of the portfolio), primarily due to market interest rate increases. Management intends to hold these securities to maturity.
• Asset Quality: Nonaccrual loans totaled $1.95 million ($1.06 million without allowance, $885,000 with allowance). Other real estate owned (OREO) decreased to $9.1 million, consisting of three properties actively marketed for sale.
• Market Risk: Interest rate risk modeling indicates that a 200 basis point increase in rates would increase net interest income by 6.52%, while a 200 basis point decrease would reduce it by 3.00%.
• Legal Proceedings: The Company is a defendant in a legal action arising from normal business activities; management believes the action is without merit and liability is not material.

Investor Verification Checklist

• Verify the valuation and sale timeline of the $9.1 million Other Real Estate Owned (OREO) portfolio, specifically the $5.7 million multifamily property.
• Monitor the impact of the $5.9 million in unrealized losses on the investment securities portfolio on future capital ratios if market rates continue to fluctuate.
• Assess the sustainability of the 30% net income increase, noting the significant contribution from one-time rental income and referral fees.
• Review the loan portfolio concentration, which is 90.5% real estate loans, including 21.2% in commercial real estate (CRE).
• Confirm the status of the $48.5 million in deposits exceeding FDIC insurance limits and the Company's strategy for managing these large depositors.
