ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Shareholders, Board of Directors, and Audit Committee CNB Financial Corporation Clearfield, Pennsylvania Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CNB Financial Corporation ("Corporation") as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 , the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Corporation as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2025, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB"), the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025 based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 11, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon. Basis for Opinion These financial statements are the responsibility of the Corporation’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Corporation’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Corporation in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. Critical Audit Matters The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current-period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate. 57 Table of Contents Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans – Qualitative Factors Description of the Critical Audit Matter As described in Notes 1 and 4 to the financial statements, the Corporation’s loan portfolio totaled $6.5 billion as of December 31, 2025, and the allowance for credit losses on loans ("ACL") was $67.1 million. This represents an estimate of expected losses inherent within the Corporation’s loan portfolio. The Corporation establishes an allowance representing the estimate of expected credit losses over the estimated life of the existing portfolio of loans. The Corporation measures expected credit losses based on a pooled loan basis when similar risk characteristics exist by primarily applying a discounted cash flow ("DCF") model. The calculated quantitative estimated losses are supplemented by qualitative factors that impact expected credit losses. Qualitative factors include changes in underwriting standards, changes in external environment, changes in lending experience and depth and other factors. The allowance for credit loss may be materially affected by these qualitative factors, especially during periods of economic uncertainty, for items not reflected in the lifetime credit loss calculation, but which are deemed appropriate by management's current assessment of the risks related to the loan portfolio. The evaluation of qualitative factors is inherently imprecise and requires significant management judgment. We identified the qualitative factor adjustments to the allowance for credit losses as a critical audit matter. The principal considerations for that determination included the high degree of judgment and subjectivity in auditing management’s measurements of those qualitative factor adjustments related to economic conditions, changes in underwriting and lending experience and depth. Auditing these assumptions required a high degree of auditor effort, specialized skills and knowledge, and significant auditor judgment to determine the relevance and reliability of data used in the development of the assumptions utilized by the Corporation. How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit The primary procedures performed to address the critical audit matter included: • We obtained an understanding of the Corporation's model and process for determining the allowance for credit losses and evaluated the design and tested the operating effectiveness of controls relating to this estimate, including controls over management’s review and approval of relevant qualitative factor adjustments applied within the qualitative framework to address risks not already incorporated within the model. • We evaluated management’s methodology for developing the qualitative factor adjustments related to economic conditions, changes in underwriting and lending experience and depth and the completeness and accuracy of data utilized in development of such adjustments. • Our evaluation focused on the qualitative factor framework as a whole, including how management’s judgments across multiple factors collectively influence the allowance and adjust quantitative model outputs. We assessed whether the combined effect of these judgments was reasonable, internally consistent, and supported by relevant data and governance processes. Business Combination – Fair Value of Acquired Loans Receivable Description of the Critical Audit Matter As described in Notes 1 and 2 to the financial statements, on July 23, 2025, the Corporation completed its acquisition of ESSA Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiary bank, ESSA Bank & Trust Company, pursuant to the merger agreement dated as of January 9, 2025. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed are required to be measured at fair value at the date of acquisition under the purchase method of accounting. The Corporation acquired loans receivable with a fair value of $1.66 billion. As disclosed by the Corporation, the fair value of the acquired loans receivable were estimated using a discounted cash flow method on an individual loan basis. To estimate the value of the loans, each loans’ contractual cash flows were projected, adjusted for expected prepayments and credit losses. Assumptions for credit losses were based off the risk characteristics of each loan. The projected cash flows were then discounted to present value using a discount rate based on the relative risk of the cash flows. 58 Table of Contents We identified the valuation of the acquired loans receivable in the Merger as a critical audit matter. The principal consideration for that determination included the high degree of judgment required by management in developing the assumptions used in the discounted cash flow methodology. This required a high degree of auditor judgment and effort in performing procedures to evaluate audit evidence related to the judgments made by management and required the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge to determine the relevance and reliability of assumptions utilized. How the Critical Audit Matter Was Addressed in the Audit The primary procedures performed to address the critical audit matter included: • We obtained an understanding, evaluated the design, and tested the operating effectiveness of the Corporation's process for estimating the acquired loans receivable fair value, including management's controls over establishing assumptions used; and evaluating the completeness and accuracy of key inputs and assumptions used. • We evaluated the Corporation’s process to develop the fair values of the acquired loans receivable by testing the completeness and accuracy of data and assumptions that the Corporation used and considered the relevance and reliability of such data and assumptions. • We utilized valuation specialists to assist in: ◦ Evaluating the appropriateness of assumptions used in the model, and; ◦ Testing the design of the model calculation through a re-performance of discounted cash flows on the loans receivable. /s/ Forvis Mazars, LLP We have served as the Corporation’s auditor since 2022. Indianapolis, Indiana March 11, 2026 59 Table of Contents Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm To the Shareholders, Board of Directors, and Audit Committee CNB Financial Corporation Clearfield, Pennsylvania Opinion on the Internal Control over Financial Reporting We have audited CNB Financial Corporation’s ("Corporation") internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework: (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). In our opinion, the Corporation maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework: (2013) issued by COSO. We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB"), the consolidated financial statements of the Corporation as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025, and our report dated March 11, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. As described in Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting, the scope of management’s assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2025, excluded ESSA Bancorp, Inc. ("ESSA") acquired on July 23, 2025. We have also excluded ESSA from the scope of our audit of internal control over financial reporting. ESSA represented approximately $32.9 million, or 14% of consolidated revenues for the year ended December 31, 2025, and approximately $1.7 billion, or 20% of consolidated total assets as of December 31, 2025. Basis for Opinion The Corporation’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Corporation in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. 60 Table of Contents Definitions and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of reliable financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. /s/ Forvis Mazars, LLP Indianapolis, Indiana March 11, 2026 61 Table of Contents CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEETS Dollars in thousands, except share data

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Unless otherwise indicated, dollar amounts in tables are stated in thousands, except for per share amounts. Business and Organization CNB Financial Corporation (the "Corporation") is headquartered in Clearfield, Pennsylvania, and provides a full range of banking and related services through its wholly owned subsidiary, CNB Bank (the "Bank"). In addition, the Bank provides wealth and asset management services, including the administration of trusts and estates, retirement plans, and other employee benefit plans as well as a full range of wealth management services. The Bank serves individual and corporate customers and is subject to competition from other financial institutions and intermediaries with respect to these services. In addition to the Bank, the Corporation also operates a consumer discount loan and finance business through its wholly owned subsidiary, Holiday Financial Services Corporation ("Holiday"). The Corporation and its other subsidiaries are subject to examination by federal and state regulators. The Corporation's market area is primarily concentrated in the Central, Northwest and Northeast regions of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the Central and Northeast regions of the State of Ohio, Western region of the State of New York and the Southwest region of the Commonwealth of Virginia. Basis of Financial Presentation The financial statements are consolidated to include the accounts of the Corporation, the Bank, CNB Securities Corporation, Holiday, CNB Risk Management, Inc. and CNB Insurance Agency. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidated financial statements. Subsequent Events The Corporation has evaluated subsequent events for recognition and disclosure through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued. Use of Estimates To prepare financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided, and actual results could differ. The allowance for credit losses on loans receivable and off-balance sheet credit exposures, the fair values of financial instruments, goodwill and the status of contingencies are particularly subject to change. Any resulting change in these estimates could be material to the consolidated financial statements. Cash and Cash Equivalents For purposes of the consolidated statement of cash flows, the Corporation defines cash and cash equivalents as cash and due from banks and interest bearing deposits with the Federal Reserve and other financial institutions. Net cash flows are reported for customer loan and deposit transactions, interest bearing time deposits with other financial institutions and borrowings with original maturities of 90 days or less. Interest-Bearing Deposits in Other Financial Institutions Interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions are carried at cost. Restrictions on Cash Note 18, "Derivative Instruments," to the consolidated financial statements discloses the cash collateral balances required to be maintained in connection with the Corporation’s interest rate swaps. 68 Table of Contents Debt Securities Debt securities are classified as held-to-maturity ("HTM") and carried at amortized cost when management has the positive intent and ability to hold them to maturity. Debt securities are classified as available-for-sale ("AFS") when they might be sold before maturity. AFS debt securities are carried at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses reported in other comprehensive income, net of tax. Interest income includes amortization of purchase premium or discount. Premiums and discounts on securities are amortized on the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments, except for mortgage backed securities where prepayments are anticipated. Premiums on callable debt securities are amortized to their earliest call date. Gains and losses on sales are recorded on the trade date and determined using the specific identification method. The Corporation has made a policy election to exclude accrued interest from the amortized cost basis of debt securities and report accrued interest separately in accrued interest receivable and other assets in the consolidated balance sheets. A debt security is placed on nonaccrual status at the time any principal or interest payments become more than 90 days delinquent or if full collection of interest or principal becomes uncertain. Accrued interest for a security placed on nonaccrual is reversed against interest income. There was no accrued interest related to debt securities reversed against interest income for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Allowance for Credit Losses (AFS Debt Securities) For AFS debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Corporation first assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security's amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income. For AFS debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the Corporation evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded for the credit loss, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income. Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded as a credit loss expense (or reversal). Losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of an AFS security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met. As of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Corporation determined that the unrealized loss positions in AFS debt securities were not the result of credit losses, and therefore, an allowance for credit losses was not recorded. See Note 3, "Securities," and Note 5, "Fair Value," for more information about AFS debt securities. Accrued interest receivable on AFS debt securities totaled $ 3.1 million and $ 2.1 million at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses. Accrued interest receivable on AFS debt securities was reported in accrued interest receivable and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets. 69 Table of Contents Allowance for Credit Losses (HTM Debt Securities) Management measures expected credit losses on HTM debt securities on a collective basis by major security type. Accrued interest receivable on HTM debt securities totaled $ 857 thousand and $ 1.1 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and was reported in accrued interest receivable and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses. The estimate of expected credit losses considers historical credit loss information that is adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts Management classifies the HTM portfolio into the following major security types: U.S. government sponsored entities and residential & multi-family mortgages. All of the mortgage-backed residential securities held by the Company are issued by U.S. government entities and agencies. These securities are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government, are highly rated by major rating agencies and have a long history of no credit losses. Equity Securities Equity securities are carried at fair value, with changes in fair value reported in net income. Equity securities without readily determinable fair values are carried at cost, minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment. Restrictions on the sale of equity securities held are not considered in the fair value measurement unless the restriction is a characteristic of the actual securities. Loans Held for Sale Mortgage loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at the lower of aggregate cost or fair value, as determined by outstanding commitments from investors. Net unrealized losses, if any, are recorded as a valuation allowance and charged to earnings. Mortgage loans held for sale are generally sold with servicing rights retained. The carrying value of the mortgage loan sold is reduced by the amount allocated to the servicing right. Gains and losses on sales of mortgage loans are based on the difference between the selling price and the carrying value of the related loan sold. Loans Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are reported at amortized cost. Amortized cost is the principal balance outstanding, net of purchase premiums and discounts, deferred loan fees and costs. Accrued interest receivable totaled $ 30.3 million and $ 21.6 million at December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and was reported in accrued interest receivable and other assets on the consolidated balance sheets and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized in interest income using the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments. Interest income on mortgage, consumer and commercial loans is discontinued and placed on nonaccrual status at the time the loan is 90 days delinquent unless the loan is well secured and in process of collection. Past-due status is based on the contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. All interest accrued but not received on loans placed on nonaccrual is reversed against interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Under the cost-recovery method, interest income is not recognized until the loan balance is reduced to zero. Under the cash-basis method, interest income is recorded when the payment is received in cash. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. 70 Table of Contents Purchased Credit Deteriorated ("PCD") Loans The Corporation has purchased loans, some of which have experienced more than insignificant credit deterioration since origination. PCD loans are recorded at the amount paid. An allowance for credit losses is determined using the same methodology as other loans held for investment. The initial allowance for credit losses determined on a collective basis is allocated to individual loans. The sum of the loan's purchase price and allowance for credit losses becomes its initial amortized cost basis. The difference between the initial amortized cost basis and the par value of the loan is a noncredit discount or premium, which is amortized into interest income over the life of the loan. Subsequent changes to the allowance for credit losses are recorded through credit loss expense. Concentration of Credit Risk Most of the Corporation’s business activity is with customers located within the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the states of Ohio, New York and Virginia. Therefore, the Corporation’s exposure to credit risk is significantly affected by changes in the economies of Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York and Virginia. At December 31, 2025 no industry concentration existed which exceeded 10% of the total loan portfolio. Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the loan's amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Loans are charged off against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of a loan balance is confirmed. Expected recoveries do not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged-off and expected to be charged-off. Management estimates the allowance balance using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts, and other significant qualitative and quantitative factors. Historical credit loss experience provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, changes in environmental conditions, delinquency level, segment growth rates (portfolio mix) and changes in duration within new markets, or other relevant factors. For further information on the allowance for credit losses on loans, see Note 4, "Loans Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses," for additional detail. The allowance for credit losses is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. The Corporation has segregated its portfolio segments based on federal call report codes which classify loans based on the primary collateral supporting the loan. The following are the Corporation's segmented portfolios: 1-4 Family Construction : The Bank originates construction loans to finance 1-4 family residential buildings. Construction loans include not only construction of new structures, but also additions or alterations to existing structures and the demolition of existing structures to make way for new structures. Construction loans are generally secured by real estate. The primary risk characteristics are specific to the uncertainty on whether the construction will be completed according to the specifications and schedules. Factors that may influence the completion of construction may be customer specific, or related to changes in general economic conditions. Other construction loans and all land development and other land loans : The Bank originates construction loans to finance land development preparatory to erecting new structures or the on-site construction of industrial, commercial, or multi-family buildings. Construction loans include not only construction of new structures, but also additions or alterations to existing structures and the demolition of existing structures to make way for new structures. Construction loans are generally secured by real estate. The primary risk characteristics are specific to the uncertainty on whether the construction will be completed according to the specifications and schedules. Factors that may influence the completion of construction may be customer specific, such as the quality and depth of property management, or related to changes in general economic conditions. Farmland (including farm residential and other improvements) : The Bank originates loans secured by farmland and improvements thereon, secured by mortgages. Farmland includes all land known to be used or usable for agricultural purposes, such as crop and livestock production. Farmland also includes grazing or pasture land, whether tillable or not and whether wooded or not. The primary risk characteristics are specific to the uncertainty on production, market, financial, environmental and human resources. 71 Table of Contents Home equity lines of credit : The primary risk characteristics associated with home equity lines of credit typically involve changes to the borrower, including unemployment or other loss of income; unexpected significant expenses, such as major medical expenses, catastrophic events, divorce and death. Home equity lines of credit are typically originated with variable or floating interest rates, which could expose the borrower to higher payments in a rising interest rate environment. Real estate values could decrease and cause the value of the underlying property to fall below the loan amount, creating additional potential loss exposure for the Bank. Residential Mortgages secured by first liens : The Bank originates one-to-four family residential mortgage loans primarily within Central, Northeast, and Northwest Pennsylvania, Central and Northeast Ohio, Western New York, and Southwest Virginia market. These loans are secured by first liens on a primary residence or investment property. The primary risk characteristics associated with residential mortgage loans typically involve major changes to the borrower, including unemployment or other loss of income; unexpected significant expenses, such as major medical expenses, catastrophic events, divorce or death. Residential mortgage loans that have adjustable rates could expose the borrower to higher payments in a rising interest rate environment. Real estate values could decrease and cause the value of the underlying property to fall below the loan amount, creating additional potential loss exposure for the Bank. Residential Mortgages secured by junior liens : The Bank originates loans secured by junior liens against one to four family properties primarily within Central, Northeast, and Northwest Pennsylvania, Central and Northeast Ohio, Western New York, and Southwest Virginia market. Loans secured by junior liens are primarily in the form of an amortizing home equity loan. These loans are subordinate to a first mortgage which may be from another lending institution. The primary risk characteristics associated with loans secured by junior liens typically involve major changes to the borrower, including unemployment or other loss of income, unexpected significant expenses, such as for major medical expenses, catastrophic events, divorce or death. Real estate values could decrease and cause the value of the property to fall below the loan amount, creating additional potential loss exposure for the Bank. Multifamily (5 or more) residential properties : The Bank originates mortgage loans for multifamily properties primarily within Central, Northeast, and Northwest Pennsylvania, Central and Northeast Ohio, Western New York, and Southwest Virginia market. Multifamily loans are expected to be repaid from the cash flows of the underlying property so the collective amount of rents must be sufficient to cover all operating expenses, property management and maintenance, taxes and debt service. Increases in vacancy rates, interest rates or other changes in general economic conditions can have an impact on the borrower and its ability to repay the loan. Owner-occupied, nonfarm nonresidential properties : The Bank originates mortgage loans to operating companies primarily within Central, Northeast, and Northwest Pennsylvania, Central and Northeast Ohio, Western New York, and Southwest Virginia market. Owner-occupied real estate properties primarily include retail buildings, medical buildings and industrial/warehouse space. Owner-occupied loans are typically repaid first by the cash flows generated by the borrower’s business operations. The primary risk characteristics are specific to the underlying business and its ability to generate sustainable profitability and positive cash flow. Factors that may influence a borrower's ability to repay their loan include demand for the business’ products or services, the quality and depth of management, the degree of competition, regulatory changes, and general economic conditions. Non-owner occupied, nonfarm nonresidential properties : The Bank originates mortgage loans for commercial real estate that is managed as an investment property primarily within Central, Northeast, and Northwest Pennsylvania, Central and Northeast Ohio, Western New York, and Southwest Virginia market. Commercial real estate properties primarily include retail buildings/shopping centers, hotels, office/medical buildings and industrial/warehouse space. Increases in vacancy rates, interest rates or other changes in general economic conditions can have an impact on the borrower and its ability to repay the loan. Commercial real estate loans are generally considered to have a higher degree of credit risk as they may be dependent on the ongoing success and operating viability of a fewer number of tenants who are occupying the property and who may have a greater degree of exposure to economic conditions. Agricultural production and other loans to farmers : The Bank originates loans secured or unsecured to farm owners and operators (including tenants) or to nonfarmers for the purpose of financing agricultural production, including the growing and storing of crops, the marketing or carrying of agricultural products by the growers thereof, and the breeding, raising, fattening, or marketing of livestock, and for purchases of farm machinery, equipment, and implements. The primary risk characteristics are specific to the uncertainty on production, market, financial, environmental and human resources. 72 Table of Contents Loans to depository institutions : The Bank originates loans to banks, credit unions, and other depository or financial institutions whose primary business activities include accepting deposits and extending credit. These credits are generally short‑ to medium‑term and may be secured or unsecured, with collateral often consisting of securities or other high‑quality liquid assets when obtained. Repayment typically depends on the borrower’s operating performance, liquidity management, and access to market funding. Key risk characteristics include capital adequacy, asset quality, liquidity, operating results, and sensitivity to market and regulatory conditions. The Bank manages these risks through ongoing monitoring of financial performance, regulatory filings, and collateral arrangements when appropriate. Commercial and Industrial : The Bank originates lines of credit and term loans to operating companies for business purposes. The loans are generally secured by business assets such as accounts receivable, inventory, business vehicles and equipment as well as the stock of a company, if privately held. Commercial and Industrial loans are typically repaid first by the cash flows generated by the borrower’s business operations. The primary risk characteristics are specific to the underlying business and its ability to generate sustainable profitability and positive cash flow. Factors that may influence a borrower's ability to repay their loan include demand for the business’ products or services, the quality and depth of management, the degree of competition, regulatory changes, and general economic conditions. The ability of the Bank to foreclose and realize sufficient value from business assets securing these loans is often uncertain. To mitigate the risk characteristics of commercial and industrial loans, commercial real estate may be included as a secondary source of collateral. The Bank will often require more frequent reporting requirements from the borrower in order to better monitor its business performance. Credit cards : The Bank originates credit cards offered to individuals and businesses for household, family, other personal and business expenditures. Credit cards generally are floating rate loans and include both unsecured and secured lines. Credit card loans generally do not have stated maturities and are unconditionally cancellable. The primary risk characteristics associated with credit cards typically involve major changes to the borrower, including unemployment or other loss of income, unexpected significant expenses, such as for major medical expenses, catastrophic events, divorce or death. Other revolving credit plans : The Bank originates lines of credit to individuals for household, family, and other personal expenditures. Consumer loans generally have higher interest rates and shorter terms than residential loans but tend to have higher credit risk due to the type of collateral securing the loan or in some cases the absence of collateral. The primary risk characteristics associated with other revolving loans typically involve major changes to the borrower, including unemployment or other loss of income, unexpected significant expenses, such as for major medical expenses, catastrophic events, divorce or death. Automobile : The Bank originates consumer loans extended for the purpose of purchasing new and used passenger cars and other vehicles such as minivans, vans, sport-utility vehicles, pickup trucks, and similar light trucks for personal use. The primary risk characteristics associated with automobile loans typically involve major changes to the borrower, including unemployment or other loss of income, unexpected significant expenses, such as for major medical expenses, catastrophic events, divorce or death. Other consumer : The Bank originates loans to individuals for household, family, and other personal expenditures. This also represents all other loans that cannot be categorized in any of the previous mentioned consumer loan segments. Consumer loans generally have higher interest rates and shorter terms than residential loans but tend to have higher credit risk due to the type of collateral securing the loan or in some cases the absence of collateral. The primary risk characteristics associated with other consumer loans typically involve major changes to the borrower, including unemployment or other loss of income, unexpected significant expenses, such as for major medical expenses, catastrophic events, divorce or death. Obligations (other than securities and leases) of states and political subdivisions : The Bank originates various types of loans made directly to municipalities. These loans are repaid through general cash flows or through specific revenue streams, such as water and sewer fees. The primary risk characteristics associated with municipal loans are the municipality's ability to manage cash flow, balance the fiscal budget, fixed asset and infrastructure requirements. Additional risks include changes in demographics, as well as social and political conditions. 73 Table of Contents Other loans : The Bank originates various loans that do not fall within its primary commercial or consumer categories, including loans to nonprofit organizations such as churches, hospitals, educational institutions, charitable groups, and community associations. These borrowers often depend on donations, grants, dues, or program revenues, making repayment sensitive to economic conditions and the stability of their funding sources. Key risk characteristics include operational and cash‑flow volatility, concentration within donor or membership bases, and exposure to demographic, social, political, or regulatory changes. Collateral, when taken, may include real estate or other assets, though recovery values can be limited due to specialized uses. These loans are generally evaluated collectively for the allowance for credit losses based on shared risk attributes and historical performance. Overdrafts : The Bank reports overdrawn customer deposit balances as loans, as the negative balance represents an extension of credit. Overdrafts are unsecured, short‑term exposures that arise when withdrawals exceed the available account balance, with repayment dependent on the customer’s ability to replenish the account through future deposits. Key risk characteristics include the customer’s deposit behavior, financial condition, and frequency of overdraft activity. These exposures are monitored through established account controls and are evaluated collectively for the allowance for credit losses based on historical loss experience and current expected credit conditions. Methods utilized by management to estimate expected credit losses include a discounted cash flow ("DCF") model that discounts instrument-level contractual cash flows, adjusted for prepayments and curtailments, incorporating loss expectations, and a weighted average remaining maturity ("WARM") model which contemplates expected losses at a pool-level, utilizing historic loss information. Under both models, management estimates the allowance for credit losses on loans using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. After the end of the reasonable and supportable forecast period, the loss rates revert to the mean loss rate over a period of eight quarters. Historical credit loss experience, including examination of loss experience at representative peer institutions when the Corporation’s loss history does not result in estimations that are meaningful to users of the Corporation’s Consolidated Financial Statements, provides the basis for the estimation of expected credit losses. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, changes in environmental conditions, delinquency level, segment growth rates and changes in duration within new markets, or other relevant factors. The DCF model uses inputs of current and forecasted macroeconomic indicators to predict future loss rates. The current macroeconomic indicator utilized by the Corporation is the Federal unemployment rate and the S&P/Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price Index for select collective residential related pools. In building the current expected credit loss methodology utilized in the DCF model, a correlation between this indicator and historic loss levels was developed, enabling a prediction of future loss rates related to future Federal unemployment rates and S&P/Case-Shiller U.S. National Home Price Index. The portfolio segments utilizing the DCF methodology comprised 91.9 % and 91.3 % of the amortized cost of loans as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and included: • Farmland • Home equity lines of credit • Residential Mortgages secured by first liens • Residential Mortgages secured by junior liens • Multifamily (5 or more) residential properties • Owner-occupied, nonfarm nonresidential properties • Non-owner occupied, nonfarm nonresidential properties • Loans to depository institutions • Agricultural production and other loans to farmers • Commercial and Industrial • Automobile • Obligations (other than securities and leases) of states and political subdivisions • Other loans 74 Table of Contents The WARM model uses combined historic loss rates for the Corporation and peer institutions, if necessary, gathered from call report filings. The selected period for which historic loss rates are used is dependent on management's evaluation of current conditions and expectations of future loss conditions. The portfolio segments utilizing the WARM methodology comprised 8.1 % and 8.7 % of the amortized cost of loans as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and included: • 1-4 Family Construction • Other construction loans and all land development and other land loans • Credit cards • Other revolving credit plans • Other consumer Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. Loans evaluated individually are not also included in the collective evaluation and typically represent collateral dependent loans but may also include other nonperforming loans or borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. The Corporation uses the practical expedient to measure individually evaluated loans as collateral dependent and/or when repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral. Expected credit losses are based on the fair value at the reporting date, adjusted for selling costs as appropriate. For collateral dependent loans, credit loss is measured as the difference between the amortized cost basis in the loan and the fair value of the underlying collateral. The fair value of the collateral is adjusted for the estimated cost to sell if repayment or satisfaction of a loan is dependent on the sale (rather than only on the operation) of the collateral. When the discounted cash flow method is used to determine the allowance for credit losses, management adjusts the effective interest rate used to discount expected cash flows to incorporate expected prepayments. Expected credit losses are estimated over the contractual term of the loans, adjusted for expected prepayments when appropriate. The contractual term excludes expected extensions, renewals, and modifications unless those options are included in the original or modified contract at the reporting date and are not unconditionally cancellable by the Corporation. Allowance for Credit Losses on Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures Management estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which the Corporation is exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Corporation. The allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted through credit loss expense. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life. Management estimates the amount of expected losses by calculating a commitment usage factor over the contractual period for exposures that are not unconditionally cancellable by the Bank and applying the loss factors used in the allowance for credit losses on loans methodology to the results of the usage calculation to estimate the liability for credit losses related to unfunded commitments for each loan segment. The estimate of credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures is $ 1.2 million and $ 944 thousand at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and was reported in accrued interest payable and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Servicing Rights When mortgage loans are sold with servicing retained, servicing rights are initially recorded at fair value with the income statement effect recorded in mortgage banking income. Fair value is based on market prices for comparable mortgage servicing contracts, when available, or alternatively, is based on a valuation model that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. All classes of servicing assets are subsequently measured using the amortization method which requires servicing rights to be amortized into non-interest income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying loans. Servicing rights are evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to carrying amount. Impairment is determined by stratifying rights into groupings based on predominant risk characteristics, such as interest rate, loan type and investor type. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance, to the extent that fair value is less than the carrying amount. If the Corporation later determines that all or a portion of the impairment no longer exists, a reduction of the allowance may be recorded as an increase to income. Changes in valuation allowances are reported with mortgage banking income on the income statement. The fair values of servicing rights are subject to significant fluctuations as a result of changes in estimated and actual prepayment speeds and default rates and losses. 75 Table of Contents Servicing fee income, which is reported on the income statement as mortgage banking income, is recorded for fees earned for servicing loans. The fees are based on a contractual percentage of the outstanding principal or a fixed amount per loan and are recorded as income when earned. The amortization of mortgage servicing rights is netted against loan servicing fee income. Late fees and ancillary fees related to loan servicing are not material. Transfers of Financial Assets Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been relinquished. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when the assets have been legally isolated from the Corporation, the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and the Corporation does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets. Foreclosed Assets Foreclosed assets are initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. Physical possession of residential real estate property collateralizing a consumer mortgage loan occurs when legal title is obtained upon completion of foreclosure or when the borrower conveys all interest in the property to satisfy the loan through completion of a deed in lieu of foreclosure or through a similar legal agreement. These assets are subsequently accounted for at lower of cost or fair value less estimated costs to sell. If fair value declines subsequent to foreclosure, a valuation allowance is recorded through expense. Operating costs after acquisition are expensed. Premises and Equipment Land is carried at cost. Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation of premises and equipment is computed principally by the straight line method. In general, useful lives range from 3 to 39 years with lives for furniture, fixtures and equipment ranging from 3 to 10 years and lives of buildings and building improvements ranging from 15 to 39 years. Amortization of leasehold improvements is computed using the straight-line method over useful lives of the leasehold improvements or the term of the lease, whichever is shorter. Maintenance, repairs and minor renewals are charged to expense as incurred. Leases Leases are classified as operating or finance leases at the lease commencement date. The Corporation leases certain locations and equipment. The Corporation records leases on the balance sheet in the form of a lease liability for the present value of future lease payments under the lease terms and a right-of-use asset equal to the lease liability adjusted for items such as deferred or prepaid rent, lease incentives, and any impairment of the right-of-use asset. The discount rate used in determining the lease liability is based upon incremental borrowing rates the Corporation could obtain for similar loans as of the date of commencement or renewal. The Corporation does not record short term leases with an initial lease term of one year or less on the consolidated balance sheets. At lease inception, the Corporation determines the lease term by considering the noncancelable lease term and all optional renewal periods that the Corporation is reasonably certain to renew. The lease term is also used to calculate straight-line lease expense. Leasehold improvements, except for those relating to leases between entities under common control, are amortized over the shorter of the useful life and the estimated lease term. Leasehold improvements relating to leases between entities under common control are amortized over the useful life of the improvements to the common control group. The Corporation's leases do not contain residual value guarantees or material variable lease payments. Operating lease expense consists of a single lease cost allocated over the remaining lease term on a straight-line basis, variable lease expense, and any impairment of the right-of-use asset. Lease expense is included in occupancy expense on the Corporation's consolidated statements of income. The Corporation's variable lease expense includes rent escalators that are based on market conditions and include items such as common area maintenance, utilities, parking, property taxes, insurance and other costs associated with the lease. The amortization of the right-of-use asset arising from finance leases is expensed through occupancy expense and the interest on the related lease liability is expensed through interest expense on borrowings on the Corporation's consolidated statements of income. The Corporation has elected to treat property leases that include both lease and non-lease components as a single component and account for it as a lease. 76 Table of Contents Federal Home Loan Bank Stock As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") system, members are required to own a certain amount of stock based on the level of borrowings and other factors and may invest in additional amounts. FHLB stock is carried at cost, classified as a restricted security, and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Both cash and stock dividends are reported as income. Qualified Affordable Housing Project Investments The Corporation has investments in various real estate limited partnerships that acquire, develop, own and operate low and moderate-income housing. These investments are made directly in Low Income Housing Tax Credit ("LIHTC") partnerships formed by third parties. As a limited partner in these operating partnerships, the Corporation receives tax credits and tax deductions for losses incurred by the underlying properties. The Corporation accounts for its ownership interest in LIHTC partnerships in accordance with Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-02, "Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method." The standard allows the Corporation to elect to account for qualifying tax equity investments using the proportional amortization method, regardless of the program giving rise to the related income tax credits. There were no impairment losses during the year resulting from the forfeiture or ineligibility of tax credits related to qualified affordable housing project investments. Bank Owned Life Insurance The Corporation has purchased life insurance policies on certain key employees. Bank owned life insurance is recorded at the amount that can be realized under the insurance contract at the balance sheet date, which is the cash surrender value adjusted for other charges or other amounts due that are probable at settlement. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets Goodwill arises from business combinations and is determined as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred, plus the fair value of any noncontrolling interests in the acquiree, over the fair value of the net assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. Goodwill and intangible assets acquired in a business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized but tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events and circumstances exist that indicate that an impairment test should be performed. The Company has selected November 30 as the date to perform the annual impairment test. Intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values. Amortized intangibles must be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the long-lived asset (group) might not be recoverable. An impairment loss related to intangible assets with finite useful lives is recognized if the carrying amount of the intangible asset is not recoverable and its carrying amount exceeds its fair value. After the impairment loss is recognized, the adjusted carrying amount of the intangible asset shall be its new accounting basis. Other intangible assets consist of core deposit intangible assets arising from acquisitions and naming rights associated with the formation of Ridge View Bank, a division of the Bank in 2023. The core deposit intangible assets from acquisitions are amortized using an accelerated method over their estimated useful lives, which range from four years to ten years . The naming rights have an indefinite useful life. Goodwill and naming rights are the only intangible assets with an indefinite life on the Corporation's balance sheet. Loan Commitments and Related Financial Instruments Financial instruments include off-balance sheet credit instruments, such as commitments to make loans and commercial letters of credit, issued to meet customer financing needs. The face amount for these items represents the exposure to loss, before considering customer collateral or ability to repay. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded. 77 Table of Contents Derivatives At the inception of a derivative contract, the Corporation designates the derivative as one of three types based on the Corporation's intentions and belief as to likely effectiveness as a hedge. These three types are (1) a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or of an unrecognized firm commitment ("fair value hedge"), (2) a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability ("cash flow hedge"), or (3) an instrument with no hedging designation ("non-designated derivative"). For a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative, as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk, are recognized in current earnings as fair values change. For a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative is reported in other comprehensive income (loss) and is reclassified into earnings in the same periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated are reported currently in earnings, as non-interest income. Accrued settlements on derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting are recorded in interest income or interest expense, based on the item being hedged. Accrued settlements on derivatives not designated are reported in non-interest income. Cash flows from designated derivatives are classified in the cash flow statement the same as the cash flows of the items being hedged. The Corporation formally documents the relationship between derivatives and hedged items, as well as the risk-management objective and the strategy for undertaking hedge transactions, at the inception of the hedging relationship. This documentation includes linking fair value or cash flow hedges to specific assets and liabilities on the balance sheet or to specific firm commitments or forecasted transactions. The Corporation also formally assesses, both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative instruments that are used are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of the hedged items. The Corporation discontinues hedge accounting when it determines that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in the fair value or cash flows of the hedged item, the derivative is settled or terminates, a hedged forecasted transaction is no longer probable, a hedged firm commitment is no longer firm, or treatment of the derivative as a hedge is no longer appropriate or intended. When hedge accounting is discontinued, subsequent changes in fair value of the derivative are recorded as non-interest income. When a fair value hedge is discontinued, the hedged asset or liability is no longer adjusted for changes in fair value and the existing basis adjustment is amortized or accreted over the remaining life of the asset or liability. When a cash flow hedge is discontinued but the hedged cash flows or forecasted transactions have a more than remote probability of occurring, gains or losses that were accumulated in other comprehensive income are amortized into earnings over the same periods which the hedged transactions will affect earnings. The Corporation is exposed to losses if a counterparty fails to make its payments under a contract in which the Corporation is in a net receiving position. The Corporation anticipates that its counterparties will be able to fully satisfy their obligations under the agreements. All contracts to which the Corporation is a party settle monthly or quarterly. In addition, the Corporation obtains collateral above certain thresholds of the fair value of its derivatives for each dealer counterparty based on their credit standing, and the Corporation maintains netting agreements with the dealers with which it conducts business. Stock-Based Compensation Compensation cost is recognized for restricted stock awards issued to employees based on the fair value of these awards at the date of grant. The market price of the Corporation’s common stock at the date of grant is used for restricted stock awards. Compensation cost is recognized over the requisite service period, generally defined as the vesting period. For awards with graded vesting, compensation cost is recognized on a straight‑line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. The Corporation’s accounting policy is to recognize forfeitures as they occur. Certain of the restricted stock awards are performance based and costs are recognized based upon certain performance conditions. The Corporation's accounting policy is to recognize forfeitures as they occur. 78 Table of Contents Income Taxes Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are the expected future tax amounts for the temporary differences between carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities, computed using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance, if needed, reduces deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is "more likely than not" that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the "more likely than not" test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Corporation recognizes interest and/or penalties, if any, related to income tax matters in income tax expense. Retirement Plans Pension expense is the net of service and interest cost, return on plan assets and amortization of gains and losses not immediately recognized. Employee 401(k) and profit-sharing plan expense is the amount of matching contributions. Deferred compensation and supplemental retirement plan expense allocates the benefits over years of service. Earnings Per Common Share Basic earnings per common share is net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. All outstanding unvested share-based payment awards that contain rights to nonforfeitable dividends are considered participating securities for this calculation. Diluted earnings per common share includes the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under stock compensation plans. Earnings and dividends per share are restated for all stock splits and stock dividends through the date of issuance of the financial statements. Comprehensive Income Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income and loss consists of unrealized holding gains and losses on the AFS debt securities portfolio, amortization of AFS debt securities transferred to HTM, changes in the unrecognized actuarial gain and transition obligation related to the Corporation’s post retirement benefits plans, and changes in the fair value of the Corporation’s interest rate swaps, net of tax. Loss Contingencies Loss contingencies, including claims and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business, are recorded as liabilities when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. Management does not believe there now are such matters that will have a material effect on the consolidated financial statements. Treasury Stock The purchase of the Corporation’s common stock is recorded at cost. Purchases of the stock are made in the open market based on market prices. At the date of subsequent reissue, the treasury stock account is reduced by the cost of such stock on a first-in first-out basis. Dividend Restriction Banking regulations require maintaining certain capital levels and may limit the dividends paid by the bank to the holding company or by the holding company to shareholders. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair values of financial instruments are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions, as more fully disclosed in a separate note. Fair value estimates involve uncertainties and matters of significant judgment regarding interest rates, credit risk, prepayments, and other factors, especially in the absence of broad markets for particular items. Changes in assumptions or in market conditions could significantly affect the estimates. 79 Table of Contents Operating Segments While the chief decision-maker monitors the revenue streams of the various products and services, operations are managed, and financial performance is evaluated on a Corporation-wide basis. Operating segments are aggregated into one as operating characteristics for all segments are similar. Accordingly, all of the financial service operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment. Business Combinations The Corporation accounts for business combinations using the acquisition method of accounting. The accounts of an acquired entity are included as of the date of merger or acquisition, and any excess of purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired is capitalized as goodwill. Alternatively, a gain is recorded if the fair value of the net assets acquired exceeds the purchase price. The Corporation typically issues Common Stock and/or pays cash for a merger or acquisition, depending on the terms of the agreement. The value of Common Stock issued is determined based on the market price of the stock as of the closing of the merger or acquisition. Merger and acquisition costs are expensed when incurred. Revenue Recognition The Corporation recognizes revenues when earned based upon (i) contractual terms as transactions occur, or (ii) as related services are provided and collectability is reasonably assured. The largest source of revenue for the Corporation is interest income, which is primarily recognized on an accrual basis according to a written contract, such as loan and lease agreements or investment securities contracts. The Corporation earns non-interest income through a variety of financial and transactional services such as security gains, loan servicing, gains on the sale of loans, commitment fees, fees from financial guarantees, certain credit card fees, gains (losses) on sale of other real estate owned not financed by the Corporation, is not within the scope of ASU 2014-9. The types of non-interest income within the scope of the standard that are material to the consolidated financial statements are services charges on deposit accounts, wealth and asset management fee income, card processing and interchange income, and other income and are discussed in greater detail below: Service charges on deposit accounts : The Corporation earns fees from its deposit customers for transaction-based, account maintenance, and overdraft services. Transaction-based fees, which include services such as ATM use fees, stop payment charges, statement rendering, and ACH fees, are recognized at the time the transaction is executed, as that is the point in time the Corporation fulfills the customer’s request. Account maintenance fees, which relate primarily to monthly maintenance, are earned over the course of a month, representing the period over which the Corporation satisfies the performance obligation. Overdraft fees are recognized at the point in time that the overdraft occurs. Services charges on deposits are withdrawn from the customer’s account balance. Wealth and asset management fees : The Corporation earns wealth and asset management fees from its contracts with trust and brokerage customers to manage assets for investment, and/or to transact on their accounts. These fees are primarily earned over time as the Corporation provides the contracted monthly or quarterly services and are generally assessed based on a tiered scale of the market value of assets under management at month end. Fees for these services are billed to customers on a monthly or quarterly basis and are recorded as revenue at the end of the period for which the wealth and asset management services have been performed. Other performance obligations, such as the delivery of account statements to customers, are generally considered immaterial to the overall transaction price. Card processing and interchange income : The Corporation earns interchange fees from check card and credit card transactions conducted through the Visa payment network. Interchange fees from cardholder transactions represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value and are recognized daily, concurrently with the transaction processing services provided to the cardholder. Other income : The Corporation's other income includes sources such as bank owned life insurance, changes in fair value and realized gains on sales of equity securities, certain service fees, gains (losses) on sales of fixed assets, and gains (losses) on sale of other real estate owned. The service fees are recognized in the same manner as the service charges mentioned above. While gains (losses) on the sale of other real estate owned are within the scope of ASU 2014-9 if financed by the Corporation, the Corporation does not finance the sale of transactions. The revenue on the sale is recorded upon the transfer of control of the property to the buyer and the other real estate owned asset is derecognized. 80 Table of Contents The Corporation does not exercise significant judgments in the recognition of income, as typically income is not recognized until the performance obligation has been satisfied. The Corporation has not recognized any assets from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with customers for revenue streams that fall within the guidance of Topic 606. Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements The Corporation has revised amounts reported in previously issued financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2023 presented in this Annual Report on Form 10–K. The revisions relate to the classification of completed construction loans not being reported in the appropriate permanent loan segment classification. The revisions resulted in changes to Note 4, "Loans Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses," and specifically the segment classification in the disclosure. These revisions do not impact the Corporation's net income. The Corporation evaluated the aggregate effects of these revisions to its previously issued financial statements in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletins No. 99 and No. 108 and, based upon quantitative and qualitative factors, determined that the revisions were not material to the previously issued financial statements and disclosures included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. The following table presents the revisions to total loans disclosure at December 31, 2023 to reflect the adjustment for the applicable portfolio segments: As Reported As Revised Adjustment December 31, 2023 Percentage of Total December 31, 2023 Percentage of Total December 31, 2023 Percentage of Total Farmland $ 31,869 0.7 % $ 33,485 0.8 % $ 1,616 0.1 % Owner-occupied, nonfarm nonresidential properties 493,064 11.0 511,910 11.5 18,846 0.5 Other construction loans and all land development and other land loans 491,539 11.0 340,358 7.6 ( 151,181 ) ( 3.4 ) Multifamily (5 or more) residential properties 254,342 5.7 305,697 6.8 51,355 1.1 Non-owner occupied, nonfarm nonresidential properties 896,043 20.1 984,033 22.0 87,990 1.9 1-4 Family Construction 51,207 1.1 28,055 0.6 ( 23,152 ) ( 0.5 ) Residential Mortgages secured by first liens 990,986 22.2 1,005,335 22.5 14,349 0.3 Residential Mortgages secured by junior liens 91,063 2.0 91,240 2.0 177 — Total $ 3,300,113 73.8 % $ 3,300,113 73.8 % $ — — % Adoption of New Accounting Standards Accounting Standards Adopted in 2024 In June 2022, FASB issued ASU 2022-03, "Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions."

The ASU contains amendments to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification that remove references to various Concepts Statements. In most instances, the references are extraneous and not required to understand or apply the guidance. In other instances, the references were used in prior Concept Statements to provide guidance in certain topical areas. The amendment in this ASU is to be applied using one of the following transition methods: (1) prospectively to all new transactions recognized on or after the date that the entity first applies the amendments; or (2) retrospectively to the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in which the amendments were first applied.

Business Combinations On July 23, 2025, the Corporation completed its previously announced acquisition of ESSA Bancorp, Inc. ("ESSA") and its subsidiary bank, ESSA Bank & Trust Company ("ESSA Bank"), pursuant to the definitive merger agreement (the "Merger Agreement") dated as of January 9, 2025. The Corporation's acquisition of ESSA was an all-stock transaction. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, ESSA merged with and into the Corporation, with the Corporation as the surviving entity, and immediately thereafter, ESSA Bank merged with and into CNB Bank, with CNB Bank as the surviving bank (the "Merger"). Banking offices of ESSA Bank operate under the trade name ESSA Bank, a division of CNB Bank. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each outstanding share of ESSA common stock was converted into the right to receive 0.8547 shares of the Corporation's common stock. The total consideration paid to ESSA shareholders was approximately $ 202.6 million, comprised of approximately 8,359,430 shares of the Corporation's common stock, valued at approximately $ 202.5 million based on the July 23, 2025 closing price of $ 24.23 per share of the Corporation's common stock, and $ 21 thousand in cash in lieu of fractional shares. The Merger has extended CNB Bank’s branch network into the Northeastern Region including the Lehigh Valley of Pennsylvania through the addition of ESSA’s 20 community offices. 84 Table of Contents As a result of the Merger, the Corporation recorded preliminary goodwill totaling $ 49.9 million at July 23, 2025, which reflects anticipated synergies and strategic benefits from combining operations. While the Corporation believes the information available on July 23, 2025, provided a reasonable basis for estimating fair value, the Corporation may obtain additional information and evidence within the one-year measurement period that could result in changes to the estimated fair value amounts and associated goodwill. Valuations subject to change include, but are not limited to, loans receivable, premises and equipment, identified intangible assets, certain deposits, and deferred income taxes. Measurement period adjustments recognized during the year ended December 31, 2025 totaled a net $ 5.3 million, primarily related to additional information obtained regarding other liabilities and loans receivable, including the related deferred tax impact, which resulted in a corresponding decrease to goodwill. The resultant goodwill balance as a result of the Merger is $ 44.6 million as of December 31, 2025. Merger and integration related costs associated with the Merger were $ 13.8 million and zero for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Such costs include employee severance, professional fees, system conversion, and lease and contract termination expenses, which have been expensed as incurred, and are recorded in "Merger and integration costs" on the Corporation's Consolidated Statements of Income. Goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes as the transaction qualifies as a tax free "reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(a). The following tables provides a summary of the consideration transferred and the fair value of the assets acquired, and liabilities assumed as of the date of the Merger, (dollars in thousands): July 23, 2025 Merger consideration Value of stock consideration assigned to ESSA common shares exchanged for stock paid to shareholders $ 202,549 Value of cash consideration for ESSA common stock exchanged for cash 21 Total merger consideration $ 202,570 July 23, 2025 Identifiable net assets acquired, at fair value Assets acquired Cash and cash equivalents $ 27,424 Debt securities available-for-sale 229,098 Loans receivable 1,658,693 Premises and equipment 16,019 Operating lease right of use assets 3,706 Accrued interest receivable and other assets 52,610 FHLB interests 24,218 Bank owned life insurance 40,835 Core deposit intangible 35,335 Goodwill 44,638 Total assets acquired 2,132,576 Liabilities assumed Deposits 1,455,805 Short-term borrowings 437,000 Accrued interest payable and other liabilities 33,600 Operating lease liabilities 3,601 Total liabilities assumed 1,930,006 Net assets acquired $ 202,570 The Corporation accounted for the Merger using the acquisition method of accounting and accordingly, assets acquired, liabilities assumed, and consideration exchanged were recorded at estimated fair value on the acquisition date, in accordance with purchase accounting. The Corporation assessed the fair values based on the following methods for the significant assets acquired and liabilities assumed: Cash and cash equivalents : The fair value was determined to approximate the carrying amount based on the short-term nature of these assets. 85 Table of Contents Debt securities AFS : The fair value of the investment portfolio was based on quoted market prices and dealer quotes and pricing obtained from independent pricing services. Following the completion of the Merger, the Corporation sold approximately $ 204.1 million of $ 229.1 million in debt securities it acquired through the Merger. These debt securities were sold at fair value and therefore no gain or loss was recognized upon the sale. Loans receivable : The fair value of loans acquired from ESSA were estimated using the discounted cash flow method on an individual loan basis. To estimate the value of the loans, each loans’ contractual cash flows were projected, adjusted for expected prepayments and credit losses. Assumptions for credit losses were based off the risk characteristics of each loan. For loans specifically evaluated by the Corporation, credit losses were based on the estimated loss identified by the Corporation. The projected cash flows were then discounted to present value using a discount rate based on the relative risk of the cash flows. Effective January 1, 2025, the Corporation early adopted ASU 2025-08 (Topic 326) on a prospective basis, see Summary of Significant Accounting Policies footnote. The Corporation first assessed which of the acquired loans have experienced more than insignificant credit deterioration since origination. These loans are deemed to be Purchased Credit Deteriorated ("PCD") and are recorded at the amount paid. An allowance for credit loss is determined using the same methodology as other loans held for investment. The initial allowance for credit losses determined on a collective basis is allocated to individual loans. The sum of the loan’s purchase price and allowance for credit losses becomes its initial amortized cost basis. The difference between the initial amortized cost basis and the par value of the loan is a noncredit discount or premium, which is amortized into interest income over the life of the loan. Subsequent changes to the allowance for credit losses are recorded through the provision for credit loss expense. The Corporation evaluated acquired loans for deterioration in credit quality based on any of, but not limited to, the following: (1) non-accrual status; (2) modifications for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty; (3) risk ratings of watch, special mention, substandard or doubtful; and (4) loans greater than 60 days past due. Of the $ 1.7 billion net loans held for investment acquired, $ 138.6 million were identified as PCD loans on the acquisition date. The following table provides a summary of these PCD loans at acquisition: July 23, 2025 Par value of acquired loans at acquisition $ 144,573 Allowance for credit losses at acquisition ( 1,857 ) Non-credit discount at acquisition ( 4,121 ) Total merger consideration $ 138,595 Non-PCD loans acquired were considered Purchased Seasoned Loans ("PSL") and are recognized using the gross-up approach. In connection with the adoption of ASU 2025-08, the Corporation recorded a $ 16.4 million allowance for credit losses on these loans by adding the allowance to the purchase price and establishing a new amortized cost basis; no provision expense was recorded at the date of acquisition. The Corporation elected for PSLs estimated using non-DCF methods to measure the subsequent allowance related to the ESSA transaction on amortized cost basis. Premises and equipment : The fair value of bank premises and equipment held for use was valued by obtaining recent market data for similar property types with adjustments for characteristics of individual properties. The Corporation acquired 20 branches from ESSA, 10 of which were owned premises. Operating lease right of use ("ROU") assets and lease liabilities : The fair value of the lease ROU assets was measured at an amount equal to the lease liability and evaluated for favorable or unfavorable lease terms when compared with market terms on a lease-by-lease basis. Accrued interest receivable and other assets : Consists mainly of accrued interest receivable, other accounts receivable, defined benefit pension assets, and deferred tax assets. The accrued interest receivable and accounts receivable was fair valued based on the cash value expected to be received. The defined benefit pension asset was recorded at its acquisition-date fair value, representing the excess of plan assets over the projected benefit obligation. Deferred taxes represent the expected book and tax differences which approximate fair value. FHLB interests : Included in the identifiable assets acquired is FHLB stock, which represents the acquired entity’s required membership stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank system, carried at par value (cost) with no readily determinable fair market value, consistent with ASC 942-325. 86 Table of Contents Bank owned life insurance ("BOLI") : The fair value of BOLI is carried at its current cash surrender value, which is the most reasonable estimate of fair value. Core deposit intangibles ("CDI") : CDI represents the future economic benefit of acquired customer deposits. The fair value of the CDI was estimated based on a discounted cash flow methodology that incorporated expected customer attrition rates, cost of deposit base, net maintenance cost associated with customer deposits, and the cost for alternative funding sources. The discount rates used were based on market rates. The core deposit intangible asset is amortized over its estimated useful life, which is approximately 10 years. Deposits : The fair value of interest bearing and non-interest bearing deposits is the amount payable on demand at the acquisition date. The fair value of time deposits was estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that includes a market rate analysis of the current rates offered by market participants for certificates of deposits that mature in the same period. Short-term Borrowings : Acquired other borrowings consisted of FHLB short-term borrowings with maturities less than 12 months. The carrying amount of short-term borrowings was determined to approximate fair value. Subsequent to the completion of the acquisition, the Corporation repaid $ 273.0 million of $ 437.0 million in FHLB borrowings. Accrued interest payable and other liabilities : Accrued interest payable and other liabilities were fair valued using the expected amount of cash to be paid. Supplemental Pro Forma Financial Information The following table presents for illustrative purposes only certain pro forma information as if the Corporation had acquired ESSA on January 1, 2024. These results combine the historical results of ESSA in the Corporation's Consolidated Statements of Income and while certain adjustments were made for the estimated impact of certain fair value adjustments and other acquisition-related activity, they are not indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisition taken place on January 1, 2024. No adjustments have been made to the pro forma results regarding possible revenue enhancements, provision for credit losses, or expense efficiencies. Pro forma adjustments below include the net impact of ESSA's accretion and the elimination of merger-related costs, as disclosed below. The Corporation expects to achieve further operating cost savings and other business synergies, as a result of the acquisitions, which are not reflected in the pro forma amounts below (dollars in thousands): 12/31/2025 12/31/2024 (Unaudited) (Unaudited) Total revenues (1) $ 334,764 $ 315,577 Net income available to common shareholders $ 90,290 $ 82,250 (1) Includes net interest income and non-interest income. Merger-related costs were $ 28.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. Merger-related costs include costs such as employee severance, professional fees, system conversion, and lease and contract termination expenses, which have been expensed as incurred, and are recorded in “Merger and integration costs” on the Corporation’s Consolidated Statements of Income. The Corporation’s operating results for the year ended December 31, 2025 include the operating results of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities of ESSA subsequent to the acquisition on July 23, 2025. Due to the merging of certain processes and the conversion of ESSA systems during the fourth quarter of 2025, historical reporting for the former ESSA operations is impracticable and thus disclosures of the revenue from the assets acquired and income before income taxes is impracticable for the period subsequent to acquisition. 87 Table of Contents 3.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, management performed an assessment for allowance for credit losses on the Corporation’s AFS debt securities in an unrealized loss position and as of December 31, 2025 management performed an assessment for allowance for credit losses on the Corporation's HTM debt securities. First an assessment was performed to determine if the Corporation intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost. Management determined it does not intend to sell and will not be required to sell any of the securities before recovery of its amortized cost. Next, management performed an evaluation relying on information obtained from various sources, including publicly available financial data, ratings by external agencies, brokers and other sources. For the securities that comprise corporate notes and bonds and the securities that are issued by state and political subdivisions, management monitors publicly available financial information, such as filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in order to evaluate the securities credit quality and ability to repay its debt obligations. For financial institution issuers, management monitors information from quarterly "call" report filings that are used to generate Uniform Bank Performance Reports. All other securities that were in an unrealized loss position at the balance sheet date were reviewed by management, and issuer-specific documents were reviewed as appropriate given the following considerations; the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer and whether downgrades by bond rating agencies have occurred. Based on the results of the assessment, management believes the decline in fair value is not the result of credit losses. As a result no credit allowance is required as of December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024 management concluded that the securities described in the previous paragraph did not decline in fair value due to credit factors for the following reasons: • There is no indication of any significant deterioration of the creditworthiness of the institutions that issued the securities. • All contractual interest payments on the securities have been received as scheduled, and no information has come to management’s attention through the processes previously described which would lead to a conclusion that future contractual payments will not be timely received. In addition, the rise in interest rates is the primary driver of the decline in fair value below amortized cost as of December 31, 2025. Equity securities at December 31, 2025 and 2024 were as follows: December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024 Corporate equity securities $ 4,745 $ 6,542 Mutual funds 3,792 1,936 Money market 245 287 Corporate notes 2,083 1,691 Total $ 10,865 $ 10,456 90 Table of Contents 4.

The Bank attempts to limit concentrations within specific industries by utilizing dollar limitations to single industries or customers, and by entering into participation agreements with third parties. Collateral requirements are established based on management's assessment of the customer. The Corporation maintains lending policies to control the quality of the loan portfolio. These policies delegate the authority to extend loans under specific guidelines and underwriting standards. These policies are prepared by the Corporation's management and reviewed and approved annually by the Corporation's Board of Directors.

Note 19, "Off-Balance Sheet Commitments and Contingencies," in the consolidated financial statements provides more detail concerning the provision for credit losses related to unfunded commitments of the Corporation. (2) As previously disclosed in the Corporation’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, and Note 1, "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," immaterial revisions were made to the provision (benefit) for credit losses on loans receivable column and ending allowance column disclosures as of December 31, 2023, to reflect the revisions for the applicable portfolio segments. The Corporation's allowance for credit losses is influenced by loan volumes, risk rating migration, delinquency status and other conditions influencing loss expectations, such as reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the increase in the allowance for credit losses was primarily driven by the Merger, including the $ 18.2 million in PCD and PSL allowance established on the acquisition date, as well as growth in the Corporation’s loan portfolio. Significant uncertainty continues to affect both the domestic and global economic outlook due to changes in U.S. tariffs and corresponding policy actions by trading partners, persistently elevated interest rates, fluctuating consumer confidence, and ongoing geopolitical conflicts. Management will continue to proactively reassess its estimate of expected credit losses as new information becomes available. Provision for credit losses was $ 8.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $ 9.2 million and $ 6.0 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Included in the provision for credit losses for the year ended December 31, 2025 was $ 208 thousand related to the allowance for unfunded commitments compared to $ 185 thousand and $ 156 thousand provision towards the allowance for unfunded commitments for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. 93 Table of Contents The following tables present the amortized cost basis of loans on nonaccrual status and loans past due over 89 days still accruing as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively: December 31, 2025 Nonaccrual Nonaccrual With No Allowance for Credit Loss Loans Past Due over 89 Days Still Accruing Farmland $ 554 $ 554 $ — Owner-occupied, nonfarm nonresidential properties 5,849 5,153 — Commercial and Industrial 8,856 8,335 — Other construction loans and all land development and other land loans 4,011 378 — Multifamily (5 or more) residential properties 799 155 — Non-owner occupied, nonfarm nonresidential properties 2,883 470 — Home equity lines of credit 2,004 2,004 — Residential Mortgages secured by first liens 12,971 12,685 — Residential Mortgages secured by junior liens 1,088 587 — Other revolving credit plans 41 41 — Automobile 55 55 — Other consumer 734 734 — Credit cards — — 42 Total loans $ 39,845 $ 31,151 $ 42 December 31, 2024 Nonaccrual Nonaccrual With No Allowance for Credit Loss Loans Past Due over 89 Days Still Accruing Farmland $ 522 $ 522 $ — Owner-occupied, nonfarm nonresidential properties 5,896 1,392 — Commercial and Industrial 10,682 10,111 — Other construction loans and all land development and other land loans 1,482 36 — Multifamily (5 or more) residential properties 20,658 266 491 Non-owner occupied, nonfarm nonresidential properties 5,913 5,913 — Home equity lines of credit 837 837 — Residential Mortgages secured by first liens 9,093 8,311 — Residential Mortgages secured by junior liens 271 271 — Other revolving credit plans 154 154 — Automobile 66 66 — Other consumer 749 749 — Credit cards — — 162 Total loans $ 56,323 $ 28,628 $ 653 All payments received while on nonaccrual status are applied against the principal balance of the loan.

When principal forgiveness is provided, the amount of forgiveness is charged-off against the allowance for credit losses. In some cases, the Corporation provides multiple types of concessions on one loan. Typically, one type of concession, such as a term extension, is granted initially. If the borrower continues to experience financial difficulty, another concession, such as principal forgiveness, may be granted. For the loans included in the "combination" columns below, multiple types of modifications have been made on the same loan within the current reporting period. The combination is at least two of the following: a term extension, principal forgiveness, an other-than-insignificant payment delay and/or an interest rate reduction. 97 Table of Contents The following table presents the amortized cost basis of loans at December 31, 2025 that were both experiencing financial difficulty and modified during the year ended December 31, 2025, by class and by type of modification that remained in effect as of December 31, 2025.

The Corporation analyzes loans individually to classify the loans as to credit risk. The Corporation uses the following definitions for risk ratings: Special Mention : A loan classified as special mention has a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the Corporation’s credit position at some future date. 99 Table of Contents Substandard : A loan classified as substandard is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. The loan has a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. A substandard loan is characterized by the distinct possibility that the Corporation will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful : A loan classified as doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. The following tables represent the Corporation's commercial credit risk profile by risk rating. Loans receivable not rated as special mention, substandard, or doubtful are considered to be pass rated loans.

Fair Value Fair Value Measurement Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The following three levels of inputs are used to measure fair value: Level 1 : Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date. Level 2 : Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. Level 3 : Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The Corporation used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value: Investment Securities : The fair values for investment securities are determined by quoted market prices, if available (Level 1). For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar securities (Level 2), using matrix pricing. Matrix pricing is a mathematical technique commonly used to price debt securities that are not actively traded, values debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities' relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs). For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3). Loans Held for Sale : Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, which is evaluated on a loan-level basis. The fair value of loans held for sale is determined using quoted prices for similar assets, adjusted for specific attributes of that loan or other observable market data, such as outstanding commitments from third party investors (Level 2). Derivatives : The fair values of derivatives are based on valuation models using observable market data as of the measurement date (Level 2). The Corporation's derivatives are traded in an over-the-counter market where quoted market prices are not always available. Therefore, the fair values of derivatives are determined using quantitative models that utilize multiple market inputs. The inputs will vary based on the type of derivative, but could include interest rates, prices, and indices to generate continuous yield or pricing curves, prepayment rates, and volatility factors to value the position. The majority of market inputs are actively quoted and can be validated through external sources, including brokers, market transactions, and third-party pricing services. 107 Table of Contents Individually Evaluated Loans : The fair value of individually evaluated loans with specific allocations of the allowance for credit losses is generally based on recent real estate appraisals prepared by third-parties. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Management also adjusts appraised values based on the length of time that has passed since the appraisal date and other factors. Such adjustments are usually significant and typically result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower's financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management's historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management's expertise and knowledge of the client and client's business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Individually evaluated loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted in accordance with the allowance policy. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows at December 31, 2025 and 2024: Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2025 Using Description Total Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Assets: Securities Available-For-Sale: U.S. Government sponsored entities $ 113,095 $ 88,113 $ 24,982 $ — States and political subdivisions 87,848 — 87,848 — Residential and multi-family mortgage 328,247 — 328,247 — Corporate notes and bonds 47,940 — 47,940 — Pooled SBA 7,200 — 7,200 — Total Securities Available-For-Sale $ 584,330 $ 88,113 $ 496,217 $ — Interest rate swaps $ 5,873 $ — $ 5,873 $ — Equity Securities: Corporate equity securities $ 4,745 $ 4,745 $ — $ — Mutual funds 3,792 3,792 — — Money market funds 245 245 — — Corporate notes 2,083 — 2,083 — Total Equity Securities $ 10,865 $ 8,782 $ 2,083 $ — Liabilities Interest rate swaps $ ( 5,873 ) $ — $ ( 5,873 ) $ — 108 Table of Contents Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2024 Using Description Total Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Assets: Securities Available-For-Sale: U.S. Government sponsored entities $ 14,810 $ 14,810 $ — $ — States and political subdivisions 90,956 — 90,956 — Residential and multi-family mortgage 318,910 — 318,910 — Corporate notes and bonds 35,210 — 35,210 — Pooled SBA 8,660 — 8,660 — Total Securities Available-For-Sale $ 468,546 $ 14,810 $ 453,736 $ — Interest rate swaps $ 423 $ — $ 423 $ — Equity Securities: Corporate equity securities $ 6,542 $ 6,542 $ — $ — Mutual funds 1,936 1,936 — — Money market funds 287 287 — — Corporate notes 1,691 1,691 — Total Equity Securities $ 10,456 $ 8,765 $ 1,691 $ — Liabilities Interest rate swaps $ ( 423 ) $ — $ ( 423 ) $ — Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis are as follows at December 31, 2025 and 2024: Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2025 Using Description Total Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Assets: Collateral-dependent loans: Farmland $ 313 $ — $ — $ 313 Owner-occupied, nonfarm nonresidential properties 2,192 — — 2,192 Commercial and industrial 3,207 — — 3,207 Other construction loans and all land development loans and other land loans 2,608 — — 2,608 Multifamily (5 or more) residential properties 654 — — 654 Non-owner occupied, nonfarm nonresidential 1,305 — — 1,305 Home equity lines of credit 1,011 — — 1,011 Residential mortgages secured by first liens 2,387 — — 2,387 Residential mortgages secured by junior liens 437 — — 437 Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2024 Using Description Total Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Assets: Collateral-dependent loans: Farmland $ 352 $ — $ — $ 352 Owner-occupied, nonfarm nonresidential properties 2,531 — — 2,531 Commercial and industrial 2,334 — — 2,334 Other construction loans and all land development loans and other land loans 1,196 — — 1,196 Multifamily (5 or more) residential properties 19,773 — — 19,773 Non-owner occupied, nonfarm nonresidential 5,225 — — 5,225 Home equity lines of credit 290 — — 290 Residential mortgages secured by first liens 1,173 — — 1,173 109 Table of Contents A loan is considered to be a collateral dependent loan when, based on current information and events, the Corporation expects repayment of the financial assets to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral and the Corporation has determined that the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty as of the measurement date. The allowance for credit losses is measured by estimating the fair value of the loan based on the present value of expected cash flows, the market price of the loan, or the underlying fair value of the loan’s collateral. For real estate loans, fair value of the loan’s collateral is determined by third-party appraisals, which are then adjusted for the estimated selling and closing costs related to liquidation of the collateral. For this asset class, the actual valuation methods (income, sales comparable, or cost) vary based on the status of the project or property. For example, land is generally based on the sales comparable method while construction is based on the income and/or sales comparable methods. The unobservable inputs may vary depending on the individual assets with no one of the three methods being the predominant approach. The Corporation reviews the third-party appraisal for appropriateness and may adjust the value downward to consider selling and closing costs. For non-real estate loans, fair value of the loan’s collateral may be determined using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business The following

there is no assurance that the estimated fair values would have been realized if the assets had been disposed of or the liabilities settled at that date, since market values may differ depending on various circumstances. The estimated fair values would also not apply to subsequent dates. The fair value of other equity interests is based on the net asset values provided by the underlying investment partnership. ASU 2015-7 removes the requirement to categorize within the fair value hierarchy all investments measured using the net asset value per share practical expedient and related disclosures. In addition, other assets and liabilities that are not financial instruments, such as premises and equipment, are not included in the disclosures. Also, non-financial assets such as, among other things, the estimated earnings power of core deposits, the earnings potential of trust accounts, the trained workforce, and customer goodwill, which typically are not recognized on the balance sheet, may have value but are not included in the fair value disclosures. 6.

Leases Operating lease assets represent the Corporation's right to use an underlying asset during the lease term and operating lease liabilities represent the Corporation's obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease assets and liabilities are recognized at lease commencement based on the present value of the remaining lease payments using a discount rate that represents the Corporation's incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date. Operating lease cost, which is comprised of amortization of the operating lease asset and the implicit interest accreted on the operating lease liability, is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, and is recorded in net occupancy expense in the consolidated statements of income. The Corporation leases certain full-service branch offices, land and equipment. Leases with an initial term of twelve months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. Most leases include one or more options to renew and the exercise of the lease renewal options are at the Corporation's sole discretion. The Corporation includes lease extension and termination options in the lease term if, after considering relevant economic factors, it is reasonably certain the Corporation will exercise the option. Certain lease agreements of the Corporation include rental payments adjusted periodically for changes in the consumer price index.

The term of this commitment may not exceed 364 days and it reprices daily at market rates. Under terms of a blanket collateral agreement with the FHLB, the line-of-credit and long term advances are secured by FHLB stock and the Bank pledges its single-family residential mortgage loan portfolio, certain commercial real estate loans, and certain agriculture real estate loans as security for any advances. Total loans pledged to the FHLB at December 31, 2025, and 2024, were $ 3.6 billion and $ 2.1 billion, respectively.

At December 31, 2025, the Bank had borrowing capacity through the Federal Reserve BIC program of $ 201.2 million.

The interest rate on each offering was determined quarterly and floated based on the three-month London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") plus 1.55 %. Effective September 15, 2023, the interest rate calculation method was revised. The interest rate is now determined quarterly, and floats based on the three-month SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.26161 % plus 1.55 %. This change reflects the transition from LIBOR to SOFR as the reference rate. The all-in rate was 5.53 % at December 31, 2025 and 6.17 % at December 31, 2024. The Corporation issued subordinated debentures to the trusts in exchange for the proceeds of the offerings, which debentures represent the sole assets of the trusts. The subordinated debentures must be redeemed no later than 2037. The Corporation may redeem the debentures, in whole or in part, at face value at any time. The Corporation has the option to defer interest payments from time to time for a period not to exceed five consecutive years. Although the trusts are variable interest entities, the Corporation is not the primary beneficiary. As a result, because the trusts are not consolidated with the Corporation, the Corporation does not report the securities issued by the trusts as liabilities. Instead, the Corporation reports as liabilities the subordinated debentures issued by the Corporation and held by the trusts, since the liabilities are not eliminated in consolidation. The trust preferred securities were designated to qualify as Tier 1 capital under the Federal Reserve’s capital guidelines. Subordinated Notes In June 2021, the Corporation sold $ 85.0 million aggregate principal amount of its fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes to eligible purchasers in a private offering in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the provisions of Rule 506 of Regulation D thereunder. The notes will mature in June 2031, and initially bear interest at a fixed rate of 3.25 % per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears, to, but excluding, June 15, 2026, and thereafter to, but excluding, the maturity date or earlier redemption, the interest rate will reset quarterly to an interest rate per annum equal to the then current three-month average SOFR plus 2.58 %. The net proceeds from the sale were approximately $ 83.5 million, after deducting offering expenses. These subordinated notes were designed to qualify as Tier 2 capital under the Federal Reserve’s capital guidelines and were given an investment grade rating of BBB- by Kroll Bond Rating Agency. The unamortized debt issuance costs were $ 0.1 million and $ 0.4 million as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. 12. Employee Benefit Plans The Corporation sponsors a contributory defined contribution Section 401(k) plan. The plan permits eligible employees to make pre-tax and Roth contributions up to 70 % of salary. Employees 21 years of age or over with a minimum of 90 days of service are eligible for matching contributions by the Corporation at 100 % of elective contributions not to exceed 5 % of plan salary. The Corporation’s matching contribution and related expenses were $ 2.9 million, $ 2.4 million, and $ 1.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively.

Additionally, on December 31, 2021, the Corporation adopted a Defined Contribution Plan for several employees (the "DCP"), pursuant to which the Corporation will make certain annual contributions to the DCP on the employee's behalf, which will be paid to the employee following their termination of employment from the Corporation or, if earlier, upon the employee becoming disabled. The DCP became effective as of January 2, 2022. The SERP and DCP are considered an unfunded plan for tax and ERISA purposes and all obligations arising under the SERP and DCP are payable from the general assets of the Corporation.

For key employees, the vesting of time-based restricted stock is one-third, one-fourth, or one-fifth of the granted restricted shares per year, beginning one year after the grant date, with 100 % vesting on the third, fourth or fifth anniversary of the grant date, respectively. Stock compensation received by non-employee directors vests in full as of the year-end of the year of grant. All stock-based compensation grants during the years ending December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 and outstanding at December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 were time-based and performance-based restricted stock. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Executive Compensation and Personnel Committee of the Corporation's Board of Directors granted a total of 147,132 , 130,857 , and 105,185 shares, respectively, of time-based restricted common stock to certain key employees and all independent directors of the Corporation. Compensation expense for the restricted stock awards is recognized over the requisite service period based on the fair value of the shares at the date of grant on a straight-line basis. Non-vested restricted stock awards are recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in-capital in shareholders’ equity until earned. Compensation expense resulting from time-based, performance-based and director restricted stock awards was $ 2.7 million, $ 2.2 million, and $ 1.7 million for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The total income tax benefit related to the recognized compensation cost of vested restricted stock awards was $ 560 thousand, $ 467 thousand, and $ 354 thousand for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. A summary of changes in time-based unvested restricted stock awards follows: Shares Weighted-average Grant Date Fair Value Non-vested at January 1, 2025 178,556 $ 22.37 Granted 147,132 22.82 Forfeited ( 16,971 ) 22.46 Vested ( 61,533 ) 22.91 Non-vested at December 31, 2025 247,184 $ 22.50 123 Table of Contents As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there was $ 3.6 million and $ 2.7 million, respectively, of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested shares granted under the 2025 Stock Incentive Plan. The fair value of shares vesting during the year end December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 was $ 1.6 million, $ 1.4 million, and $ 1.0 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, there were zero outstanding unvested restricted stock awards granted to the Corporation's Board of Directors. In addition to the time-based restricted stock disclosed above, the Corporation’s Board of Directors grants performance-based restricted stock awards ("PBRSAs") to key employees. The number of PBRSAs will depend on certain performance conditions earned over a three year period and are also subject to service-based vesting. Awards with a maximum of 55,575 shares, 44,988 shares, and 35,129 shares in aggregate were granted to key employees in 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, there were a maximum 130,828 shares outstanding related to PBRSAs. Total compensation expense related to the PBRSAs and included in the above compensation expense total was $ 591 thousand, $ 431 thousand and $ 235 thousand for 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. Estimated remaining unearned compensation related to PBRSAs at December 31, 2025 was $ 856 thousand. In 2024, the 2022 PBRSAs were fully earned and in 2025, 8,916 shares were fully distributed. The fair value of the shares distributed in 2025 was $ 226 thousand. In 2023, the 2021 PBRSAs were fully earned and in 2024, 9,667 shares were fully distributed. The fair value of the shares distributed in 2024 was $ 206 thousand. The number of authorized stock-based awards still available for grant as of December 31, 2025 was 592,608 . 17. Regulatory Capital Matters Banks and financial holding companies are subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and, for the Bank, prompt corrective action ("PCA") regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators. Failure to meet capital requirements can result in regulatory enforcement actions. The net unrealized gain or loss on AFS debt securities is excluded from computing regulatory capital. Management believes as of December 31, 2025 the Corporation and the Bank meet all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. The PCA regulations provide five classifications: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized, and critically undercapitalized, although these terms alone do not represent overall financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion; brokered deposits may not be accepted, renewed or rolled over; and capital restoration plans are required. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the PCA. There are no events or conditions since this notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s capital category. 124 Table of Contents Actual and required capital amounts and ratios are presented below as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The capital adequacy ratio includes the capital conservation buffer.

Derivative Instruments On September 7, 2018, the Corporation executed an interest rate swap agreement with a 5-year term and an effective date of September 15, 2018 in order to hedge cash flows associated with $ 10.0 million of a subordinated note that was issued by the Corporation during 2007 and elected cash flow hedge accounting for the agreement. The Corporation’s objective in using this derivative is to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate risk. The interest rate swap involves the receipt of variable-rate amounts in exchange for fixed-rate payments from September 15, 2018 to September 15, 2023 without the exchange of the underlying notional amount. The swap that expired on September 15, 2023 was not renewed. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, no derivatives were designated as fair value hedges or hedges of net investments in foreign operations. Additionally, the Corporation does not use derivatives for trading or speculative purposes and currently does not have any derivatives that are not designated as hedges. 125 Table of Contents The following tables provide information about the amounts and locations of activity related to the interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges within the Corporation’s consolidated balance sheet and statement of income as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 and for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023: Liability Derivative Balance Sheet Fair value Location December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024 Interest rate contract Accrued interest receivable (payable) and other assets (liabilities) $ — $ — For the Year Ended December 31, 2025 (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) Interest rate contract $ — Interest expense – subordinated debentures $ — Other income $ — For the Year Ended December 31, 2024 Interest rate contract — Interest expense – subordinated debentures — Other income — For the Year Ended December 31, 2023 Interest rate contract ( 119 ) Interest expense – subordinated debentures 151 Other income — (a) Amount of Gain or (Loss) Recognized in Other Comprehensive Loss on Derivative (Effective Portion), net of tax (b) Location of Gain or (Loss) Reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss into Income (Effective Portion) (c) Amount of Loss Reclassified from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss into Income (Effective Portion) (d) Location of Gain or (Loss) Recognized in Income on Derivative (Ineffective Portion and Amount Excluded from Effectiveness Testing) (e) Amount of Gain or (Loss) Recognized in Income on Derivative (Ineffective Portion and Amount Excluded from Effectiveness Testing) Derivatives on Behalf of Customers The Corporation entered into certain interest rate swap contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments. These derivative contracts relate to transactions in which the Corporation enters into an interest rate swap with a customer while at the same time entering into an offsetting interest rate swap with another financial institution. In connection with each swap transaction, the Corporation agrees to pay interest to the customer on a notional amount at a variable interest rate and receive interest from the customer on a similar notional amount at a fixed interest rate. Concurrently, the Corporation agrees to pay another financial institution the same fixed interest rate on the same notional amount and receive the same variable interest rate on the same notional amount. The transaction allows the Corporation’s customers to effectively convert a variable rate loan to a fixed rate. Because the Corporation acts as an intermediary for its customer, changes in the fair value of the underlying derivative contracts offset each other and do not impact the Corporation’s results of operations. The Corporation pledged cash collateral to another financial institution with a balance $ 1.3 million as of December 31, 2025 and $ 173 thousand as of December 31, 2024. This balance is included in cash and due from banks on the consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation received cash collateral from another financial institution with a balance $ 2.6 million as of December 31, 2025 and no balance as of December 31, 2024. This balance is included in non-interest bearing deposits with other banks on the consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation may require its customers to post cash or securities as collateral on its program of back-to-back swaps depending upon the specific facts and circumstances surrounding each loan and individual swap. In addition, certain language is included in the International Swaps and Derivatives Association agreement and loan documents where, in default situations, the Corporation is permitted to access collateral supporting the loan relationship to recover any losses suffered on the derivative asset or liability. The Corporation may be required to post additional collateral to swap counterparties in the future in proportion to potential increases in unrealized loss positions. Effective on September 30, 2023, the Corporation amended all of the back-to-back swap contracts to reference the 1-month SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment of 11.448 basis points "Fallback SOFR." 126 Table of Contents The following table provides information about the amounts and locations of activity related to the back-to-back interest rate swaps within the Corporation’s consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 and 2024: Fair Value Notional Amount Asset Liability December 31, 2025 $ 181,171 $ 5,873 (a) $ 5,873 (b) December 31, 2024 $ 65,629 $ 423 (a) $ 423 (b) (a) Reported in accrued interest receivable and other assets within the consolidated balance sheets (b) Reported in accrued interest payable and other liabilities within the consolidated balance sheets Risk Participation Agreements The Corporation’s existing credit derivatives result from participation in or out of interest rate swaps provided by or to external lenders as part of loan participation arrangements, and therefore, are not used to manage interest rate risk in the Corporation’s assets or liabilities. Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and result from a service the Corporation provides to certain lenders which participate in loans. The Corporation entered into Risk Participation Agreement ("RPA") swaps with other financial institutions related to loans in which the Corporation is a participant in. The RPA provides credit protection to the financial institution should the borrower fail to perform on its interest rate derivative contract with the financial institution. The notional amount of this contingent agreement is $ 53.1 million as of December 31, 2025 and $ 21.3 million as of December 31, 2024. The Corporation entered into RPA swaps with other financial institutions related to loans in which the Corporation is a participant out. The RPA provides credit protection to the Corporation should the borrower fail to perform on its interest rate derivative contract with the financial institution. The notional amount of this contingent agreement is $ 28.7 million as of December 31, 2025 and $ 25.5 million as of December 31, 2024. The fair value of the RPA swaps was $ 18 thousand and $ 11 thousand as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, and is reported in accrued interest payable and other liabilities within the condensed consolidated balance sheets. 19. Off-Balance Sheet Commitments and Contingencies Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk The Corporation is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. The Corporation's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party of the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contract or notional amount of those instruments. The Corporation uses the same credit policies for underwriting all loans, including these commitments and conditional obligations. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Corporation did not own or trade other financial instruments with significant off-balance sheet risk including derivatives such as futures, forwards, option contracts and the like, although such instruments may be appropriate to use in the future to manage interest rate risk. See Note 18, "Derivative Instruments," for a description of interest rate derivatives entered into by the Corporation. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Corporation to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The contract or notional amount of these instruments reflects the maximum amount of future payments that the Corporation could be required to pay under the guarantees if there were a total default by the guaranteed parties, without consideration for possible recoveries under recourse provisions or from collateral held or pledged. In addition, many of these commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon; therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. 127 Table of Contents The Corporation's maximum obligation to extend credit for loan commitments (unfunded loans and unused lines of credit) and standby letters of credit outstanding as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 were as follows: December 31, 2025 December 31, 2024 Fixed Rate Variable Rate Fixed Rate Variable Rate Commitments to make loans $ 137,684 $ 535,116 $ 130,087 $ 321,677 Unused lines of credit 71,368 1,049,890 24,037 851,846 Standby letters of credit 24,136 12,322 19,301 2,797 Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Corporation evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Corporation upon extension of credit, is based on management's credit evaluation of the counterparty. Collateral that is held varies but may include securities, accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant and equipment, and residential and income-producing commercial properties. Allowance for Credit Losses on Unfunded Loan Commitments The Corporation maintains an allowance for credit losses on unfunded commercial lending commitments and letters of credit to provide for the risk of loss inherent in these arrangements. The allowance is computed using a methodology similar to that used to determine the allowance for credit losses for loans receivable, modified to take into account the probability of a draw-down on the commitment. The provision for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments is included in the provision for credit losses on the Corporation's condensed consolidated statements of income. The allowance for unfunded commitments is included in other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Note 4, "Loans Receivable and Allowance for Credit Losses," in the condensed consolidated financial statements provides more detail concerning the provision for credit losses related to the loan portfolio of the Corporation. The following table presents activity in the allowance for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively: Year ended December 31, 2025 2024 2023 Beginning balance $ 944 $ 759 $ 603 Provision for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments (1) 208 185 156 Ending balance $ 1,152 $ 944 $ 759 (1) Excludes provision for credit losses related to the loan portfolio. Investments in Small Business Investment Corporation and Community Development Entities The Corporation makes investments in limited partnerships, including certain small business investment corporations and community development entities. Capital contributions for investments in small business companies ("SBIC") and community development entities ("CDE"), reported in FHLB and other restricted stock holdings and investments on the consolidated balance sheet, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, were $ 27.7 million and $ 23.5 million, respectively. Unfunded capital commitments in investments in SBICs and CDEs totaled $ 12.2 million and $ 8.0 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. These investments are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. Investments in Qualified Affordable Housing Project Investments The carrying value of investments in the low income housing partnerships, reported in FHLB and other restricted stock holdings and investments on the consolidated balance sheet, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $ 6.8 million and $ 7.3 million, respectively. The related amortization for the years ended December 31, 2025 2024, and 2023 were $ 1.2 million, $ 711 thousand, and $ 747 thousand, respectively. Unfunded commitments, reported in accrued interest payable and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, were $ 1.0 million and $ 3.7 million, respectively. 128 Table of Contents Investments in Federal and State Rehabilitation/Historic Tax Credit From time to time, the Corporation invests in certain limited partnerships that were formed to provide certain federal and state rehabilitation/historic tax credits. The carrying value of these investments, reported in FHLB and other restricted stock holdings and investments on the consolidated balance sheet, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $ 4.1 million and $ 4.1 million, respectively. The investments do not have any related amortization for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, respectively. Unfunded commitments, reported in accrued interest payable and other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets, as of December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, were $ 3.2 million and $ 3.2 million, respectively. Litigation The Corporation is subject to claims and lawsuits that arise primarily in the ordinary course of business. It is the opinion of management the disposition or ultimate resolution of such claims and lawsuits will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows of the Corporation. 20.

Segment Reporting The Corporation generates revenue through the operation of a full-service bank and manages the business activities on a consolidated basis. The nature of the products and services offered, and the types of customers served are similar across the geographic footprint the Bank operates in. The banking segment derives its revenue primarily through the operations as a full-service bank engaging in a full range of banking activities and services, including trust and wealth management services, for individual, business, governmental, and institutional customers. There are branch offices located in Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York and Virginia. The accounting policies of the banking segment are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Accordingly, all of the financial service operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment. The Corporation’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer, Michael D. Peduzzi. The CODM assesses performance for the banking segment and decides how to allocate resources based on consolidated net income as reported on the income statement. The measure of segment assets is reported on the balance sheet as total consolidated assets. The CODM uses net income to evaluate overall financial performance and profitability, and it is utilized as a key metric in evaluating the achievement of the corporation’s strategic plan. Net income is used to monitor budget versus actual results. The comparison of budgeted versus actual net income results are used in assessing the banking segment’s performance and in establishing management’s compensation. 132 Table of Contents Information reported internally for performance assessment by the CODM follows, including reconciliation to the financial statements.

Quarterly Financial Data (Unaudited) The table below sets forth the Corporation's unaudited condensed consolidated quarterly results of operations data for the years ended December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 (in thousands, except per share data). In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) that are necessary for a fair presentation of the quarterly results have been reflected in the data. It is also management's opinion, however, that quarterly results of operations data are not indicative of the financial results to be achieved in succeeding years or quarters. In order to obtain a more accurate indication of performance, one should review the financial and operating results, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for a period of several years. As of January 1, 2025, the Corporation adopted ASU 2025-08. Prior to the quarter ended March 31, 2025, the results were based on the applicable guidance in effect prior to the adoption of ASU 2025‑08, and these results have not been restated.
