ITEM 8. FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUPPLEMENTARY DATA 1. Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (PCAOB ID 173) Shareholders and the Board of Directors of Eagle Bancorp, Inc. Bethesda, Maryland Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Eagle Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") as of December 31, 2021 and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flow for the year ended December 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). We also have audited the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework: (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). 71 Table of Contents In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period ended December 31, 2021 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021, based on criteria established in Internal Control – Integrated Framework: (2013) issued by COSO. Change in Accounting Principle As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has changed its method of accounting for credit losses effective January 1, 2020 due to the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification No. 326, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (ASC 326). The Company adopted the new credit loss standard using the modified retrospective method such that prior period amounts are not adjusted and continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable generally accepted accounting principles. Basis for Opinions The Company’s management is responsible for these financial statements, 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 Company’s financial statements and an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company 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, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audits of the financial statements 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 included 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. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting 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 audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions. Definition 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 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. Critical Audit Matter The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that 72 Table of Contents are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter 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 matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates. Allowance and Provision for Credit Losses on Loans The allowance for credit losses (the “ACL”) is an accounting estimate of the expected credit losses in the loans held for investment portfolio over the life of an exposure (or pool of exposures). Expected credit losses are measured on a collective (pooled) basis for financial assets with similar risk characteristics. The ACL is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans as described in Notes 1 and 4 of the consolidated financial statements. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. The Company estimates expected credit losses for loans using a methodology based on a loan-level probability of default (“PD”) and Loss Given Default (“LGD”) cash flow method that is applied using an exposure at default (“EAD”) model. Cash flow projections are at the loan level wherein payment expectations are adjusted for estimated prepayment speeds, PD rates, and LGD rates. The expected prepayment speeds are based on historical internal data. These historical loss rates are then modified to incorporate a reasonable and supportable forecast of future losses at the portfolio segment level. The ACL estimation process for loans applies economic forecast scenarios over a reasonable and supportable period of 18 months and reverts back to a historical loss rate over twelve months on a straightline basis over the loan's remaining maturity. These historical loss rates are then modified to incorporate our reasonable and supportable forecast of future losses at the portfolio segment level, as well as any necessary qualitative adjustments We determined that auditing the allowance for credit losses on loans was a critical audit matter because of the extent of auditor judgment applied and significant audit effort to evaluate the significant subjective and complex judgments made by management throughout the application processes, including the need to involve our valuation services specialists. The principal considerations resulting in our determination included the following: • Significant auditor judgment in evaluating the selection and application of the reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic variables and reasonableness of other model assumptions. • Significant auditor judgment and effort in evaluating the reasonableness of the qualitative adjustments used in the model computation. • Significant audit effort related to the completeness and accuracy of the high volume of data used to develop assumptions and in the model computation. Our audit procedures to address the critical audit matter included: Testing the effectiveness of internal controls over: • The Company’s significant model assumptions and judgments, reasonable and supportable forecasts, and information systems. • The Company’s preparation and review of the allowance for credit losses calculation, including the relevance and reliability of data used as the basis for adjustments related to the qualitative factors, the development and reasonableness of qualitative adjustments, and the mathematical accuracy and appropriateness of the overall calculation. • The completeness and accuracy of historical inputs, loan data used in the development of the PD and LGD assumptions, and the use of third-party data in the computation. Substantively testing management’s estimate, which included: • Assessing the reasonableness of assumptions and judgments related to the PD and LGD rates, with the assistance of our valuation specialists, by comparing the resulting historical loss experience to a group of the Company’s peers. • Evaluating the reasonableness of management’s judgments in the selection and application of reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic variables. • Evaluating management’s process for developing the qualitative factors, including evaluating management’s judgments and assumptions for reasonableness. 73 Table of Contents • Assessing the relevance and reliability of data used to develop qualitative factors. • Evaluating the mathematical accuracy of the PD and LGD rates on a pooled loan level with the assistance of valuation specialists, including the completeness and accuracy of loan data used in the model.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the Years Ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019: Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Eagle Bancorp, Inc. (the "Parent") and its subsidiaries (together with the Parent, the “Company”) with all significant intercompany transactions eliminated. EagleBank (the “Bank”), a Maryland chartered commercial bank, is the Company’s principal subsidiary. The investment in subsidiaries is recorded on the Company’s books (Parent Only) on the basis of its equity in the net assets of the subsidiary (see Note 25 "Parent Company Financial Information" for further detail). The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and to general practices in the banking industry. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies. Nature of Operations The Company, through the Bank, conducts a full service community banking business, primarily in Northern Virginia, Suburban Maryland, and Washington, D.C. The primary financial services offered by the Bank include real estate, commercial and consumer lending, as well as traditional deposit and repurchase agreement products. The Bank is also active in the origination and sale of residential mortgage loans, the origination of small business loans, and the origination, securitization and sale of multifamily Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”) loans. The guaranteed portion of small business loans, guaranteed by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”), is typically sold to third party investors in a transaction apart from the loan’s origination. As of December 31, 2021, the Bank offers its products and services through seventeen banking offices, five lending centers and various electronic capabilities, including remote deposit services and mobile banking services. Eagle Insurance Services, LLC, a subsidiary of the Bank, offers access to insurance products and services through a referral program with a third party insurance broker. Landroval Municipal Finance, Inc., a subsidiary of the Bank, focuses on lending to municipalities by buying debt on the public market as well as direct purchase issuance. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates and such differences could be material to the financial statements. Cash Flows For purposes of reporting cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and due from banks, federal funds sold, and interest bearing deposits with other banks that have an original maturity of three months or less. Net cash flows are reported for customer loan and deposit transactions, interest bearing deposits in other financial institutions, federal funds purchased, repurchase agreements and other short-term borrowings. Interest Bearing Deposits in Other Financial Institutions Interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions mature within one year and are carried at cost. Loans Held for Sale The Company regularly engages in sales of residential mortgage loans held for sale and the guaranteed portion of SBA loans originated by the Bank. The Company has elected to carry loans held for sale at fair value. Fair value is derived from secondary market quotations for similar instruments. Gains and losses on sales of these loans are recorded as a component of noninterest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company’s current practice is to sell residential mortgage loans held for sale on a servicing released basis, and, therefore, it has no intangible asset recorded for the value of such servicing as of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. 80 Table of Contents The Company enters into commitments to originate residential mortgage loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding (i.e. interest rate lock commitments). Such interest rate lock commitments on mortgage loans to be sold in the secondary market are considered to be derivatives. To protect against the price risk inherent in residential mortgage loan commitments, the Company utilizes either or both “best efforts” and “mandatory delivery” forward loan sale commitments to mitigate the risk of potential decreases in the values of loans that would result from the exercise of the derivative loan commitments. Under a “best efforts” contract, the Company commits to deliver an individual mortgage loan of a specified principal amount and quality to an investor. The investor commits to a price, representing a premium on the day the borrower commits to an interest rate, at which it will purchase the loan from the Company if the loan to the underlying borrower closes, with the intent that the buyer/investor has assumed the interest rate risk on the loan as the Company protects itself from changes in interest rates. As a result, the Bank is not generally exposed to losses on loans sold utilizing best efforts, nor will it realize gains related to rate lock commitments due to changes in interest rates. The market values of interest rate lock commitments and best efforts contracts are not readily ascertainable with precision because rate lock commitments and best efforts contracts are not actively traded. Because of the high correlation between rate lock commitments and best efforts contracts, very little gain or loss should occur on the interest rate lock commitments. Under a “mandatory delivery” contract, the Company commits to deliver a certain principal amount of mortgage loans to an investor at a specified price on or before a specified date. If the Company fails to deliver the amount of mortgages necessary to fulfill the commitment by the specified date, it is obligated to pay the investor a “pair-off” fee, based on then-current market prices, to compensate the investor for the shortfall. The Company manages the interest rate risk on interest rate lock commitments by entering into forward sale contracts of mortgage-backed securities, whereby the Company obtains the right to deliver securities to investors in the future at a specified price. Such contracts are accounted for as derivatives and are recorded at fair value in derivative assets or liabilities, carried on the Consolidated Balance Sheet within other assets or other liabilities, with changes in fair value recorded in other income within the Consolidated Statements of Income. The period of time between issuance of a loan commitment to the customer and closing and sale of the loan to an investor generally ranges from 30 to 90 days under current market conditions. The gross gains on loan sales are recognized based on new loan commitments with adjustment for price and pair-off activity. Commission expenses on loans held for sale are recognized based on loans closed. In circumstances where the Company does not deliver the whole loan to an investor, but rather elects to retain the loan in its portfolio, the loan is transferred from held for sale to loans at fair value at the date of transfer. The sale of the guaranteed portion of SBA loans on a servicing retained basis gives rise to an excess servicing asset, which is computed on a loan by loan basis with the unamortized amount being included in intangible assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. This excess servicing asset is being amortized on a straight-line basis (with adjustment for prepayments) as an offset to servicing fees collected and is included in other income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company originates multifamily FHA loans through the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Multifamily Accelerated Program (“MAP”). The Company securitizes these loans through the Government National Mortgage Association (”Ginnie Mae”) MBS I program and sells the resulting securities in the open market to authorized dealers in the normal course of business and periodically bundles and sells the servicing rights. When servicing is retained on multifamily FHA loans securitized and sold, the Company computes an excess servicing asset on a loan by loan basis. Unamortized multifamily FHA mortgage servicing rights ("MSRs") totaled $ 1.5 million as of December 31, 2021 and $ 807 thousand as of December 31, 2020. Noninterest Income includes gains from the sale of the Ginnie Mae securities and net revenues earned on the servicing of multifamily FHA loans underlying the Ginnie Mae securities. Revenue from servicing commercial multifamily FHA mortgages is recognized as earned based on the specific contractual terms of the underlying servicing agreements, along with amortization of and changes in impairment of MSRs. Investment Securities The Company has no securities classified as held-to-maturity. Securities available-for-sale are acquired as part of the Company’s asset/liability management strategy and may be sold in response to changes in interest rates, current market conditions, loan demand, changes in prepayment risk and other factors. Securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value, with unrealized gains or losses, other than impairment losses, being reported as accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss), a separate component of shareholders’ equity, net of deferred income tax. Realized gains and losses, using the specific identification method, are included as a separate component of noninterest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Premiums and discounts on investment securities are amortized/accreted to the earlier of call or maturity based on expected lives, which lives are adjusted based on prepayment assumptions and call optionality. Declines in the fair value of 81 Table of Contents individual available-for-sale securities below their cost that are other-than-temporary in nature result in write-downs of the individual securities to their fair value. Factors affecting the determination of whether other-than-temporary impairment has occurred include a downgrading of the security by a rating agency or a significant deterioration in the financial condition of the issuer. Management systematically evaluates investment securities for other-than-temporary declines in fair value on a quarterly basis. This analysis requires management to consider various factors, which include the: (1) magnitude of the decline in value; (2) financial condition of the issuer or issuers; and (3) structure of the security. For the impairment of investment securities please see "Allowance for Credit Losses - Available-for-Sale Debt Securities" below. Loans Loans are stated at the principal amount outstanding, net of unamortized deferred costs and fees. Interest income on loans is accrued at the contractual rate on the principal amount outstanding. It is the Company’s policy to discontinue the accrual of interest when circumstances indicate that collection is doubtful. Deferred fees and costs are being amortized on the interest method over the term of the loan. Allowance for Credit Losses On January 1, 2020, we adopted Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 326, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326 ): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASC 326”), which replaced the incurred loss methodology for determining our provision for credit losses and ACL with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss ("CECL") model. The measurement of expected credit losses under the CECL methodology is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loans receivable and held-to-maturity (“HTM”) debt securities. It also applies to off-balance sheet credit exposures not accounted for as insurance (loan commitments, standby letters of credit, financial guarantees, and other similar instruments) and net investments in leases recognized by a lessor in accordance with ASC 842, "Leases" . In addition, ASC 326 changed the accounting for available-for-sale (“AFS”) debt securities. One such change is to require credit-related impairments to be recognized in the ACL rather than as a write-down of the securities' amortized cost basis when management does not intend to sell or believes that it is not more likely-than-not that they will be required to sell the securities prior to recovery of the securities' amortized cost basis. We adopted ASC 326 using the modified retrospective method. Results for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2020 are presented under ASC 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable GAAP. The Company does not own HTM investment debt securities. The following table illustrates the impact of ASC 326.

ASC 326 replaced the incurred loss impairment model that recognizes losses when it becomes probable that a credit loss will be incurred, with a requirement to recognize lifetime expected credit losses immediately when a financial asset is originated or purchased. The ACL is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Loans, or portions thereof, are charged off against the allowance when they are deemed uncollectible. Expected recoveries are recorded to the extent they do not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged-off and expected to be charged-off. Reserves on loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis (e.g., nonaccrual loans, TDRs). Nonaccrual loans are specifically reviewed for loss potential and when deemed appropriate are assigned a reserve based on an individual evaluation. The remainder of the portfolio, representing all loans not evaluated individually for impairment, is segregated by call report codes and a loan-level probability of default (“PD”) / Loss Given Default (“LGD”) cash flow method is applied using an exposure at default (“EAD”) model. These historical loss rates are then modified to incorporate our reasonable and supportable forecast of future losses at the portfolio segment level, as well as any necessary qualitative adjustments. The Company uses regression analysis of historical internal and peer data (as Company loss data is insufficient) to determine suitable credit loss drivers to utilize when modeling lifetime PD and LGD. This analysis also determines how expected PD will be impacted by different forecasted levels of the loss drivers. A similar process is employed to calculate a reserve assigned to off-balance sheet commitments, specifically unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit, and any needed reserve is recorded in reserve for unfunded commitments (“RUC”) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. For periods beyond which we are able to develop reasonable and supportable forecasts, we revert to the historical loss rate on a straight-line basis over a twelve-month period. The Company uses a loan-level PD/LGD cash flow method with an EAD model to estimate expected credit losses. In accordance with ASC 326, expected credit losses are measured on a collective (pooled) basis for financial assets with similar risk characteristics. The bank groups collectively assessed loans using a call report code. Some unique loan types, such as PPP loans, are grouped separately due to their specific risk characteristics. For each of these loan segments, the Company generates cash flow projections at the instrument level wherein payment expectations are adjusted for estimated prepayment speeds, PD rates, and LGD rates. The modeling of expected prepayment speeds is based on historical internal data. EAD is based on each instrument's underlying amortization schedule in order to estimate the bank's expected credit loss exposure at the time of the borrower's potential default. For our cash flow model, management utilizes and forecasts regional unemployment by using a national forecast and estimating a regional adjustment based on historical differences between the two as the loss driver over our reasonable and supportable period of 18 months and reverts back to a historical loss rate over twelve months on a straight-line basis over the loan's remaining maturity. In 2021, the improvement in economic conditions, which impacted the unemployment projections, which inform our CECL economic forecast, along with improvements in credit quality and charge offs, resulted in a decrease in our ACL during 2021. Management leverages economic projections from reputable and independent third parties to inform its loss driver forecasts over the forecast period. The ACL also includes an amount for inherent risks not reflected in the historical analyses. Relevant factors include, but are not limited to, concentrations of credit risk, changes in underwriting standards, experience and depth of lending staff, and trends in delinquencies. 83 Table of Contents While our methodology in establishing the ACL attributes portions of the ACL and RUC to the separate loan pools or segments, the entire ACL and RUC is available to absorb credit losses expected in the total loan portfolio and total amount of unfunded credit commitments, respectively. Portfolio segments are used to pool loans with similar risk characteristics and align with our methodology for measuring expected credit losses. A summary of our primary portfolio segments is as follows: Commercial . The commercial loan portfolio comprises lines of credit and term loans for working capital, equipment, and other business assets across a variety of industries. These loans are used for general corporate purposes including financing working capital, internal growth, and acquisitions; and are generally secured by accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and other assets of our clients’ businesses. Income producing – commercial real estate . Income producing commercial real estate loans comprise permanent and bridge financing provided to professional real estate owners/managers of commercial and residential real estate projects and properties who have a demonstrated a record of past success with similar properties. Collateral properties include apartment buildings, office buildings, hotels, mixed-use buildings, retail, data centers, warehouse, and shopping centers. The primary source of repayment on these loans is generally expected to come from lease or operation of the real property collateral. Income producing commercial real estate loans are impacted by fluctuation in collateral values, as well as rental demand and rates. Owner occupied – commercial real estate. The owner occupied commercial real estate portfolio comprises permanent financing provided to operating companies and their related entities for the purchase or refinance of real property wherein their business operates. Collateral properties include industrial property, office buildings, religious facilities, mixed-use property, health care and educational facilities. Real Estate Mortgage – Residential. Real estate mortgage residential loans comprise consumer mortgages for the purpose of purchasing or refinancing first lien real estate loans secured by primary-residence, second-home, and rental residential real property. Construction – commercial and residential . The construction commercial and residential loan portfolio comprises loans made to builders and developers of commercial and residential property, for both renovation, new construction, and development projects. Collateral properties include apartment buildings, mixed use property, residential condominiums, single and 1-4 residential property, and office buildings. The primary source of repayment on these loans is expected to come from the sale, permanent financing, or lease of the real property collateral. Construction loans are impacted by fluctuations in collateral values and the ability of the borrower or ultimate purchaser to obtain permanent financing. Construction – commercial and industrial ("C&I") (owner occupied) . The construction C&I (owner occupied) portfolio comprises loans to operating companies and their related entities for new construction or renovation of the real or leased property in which they operate. Generally these loans contain provisions for conversion to an owner occupied commercial real estate loan or to a commercial loan after completion of construction. Collateral properties include industrial, healthcare, religious facilities, restaurants, and office buildings. Home Equity . The home equity portfolio comprises consumer lines of credit and loans secured by subordinate liens on residential real property. Other Consumer . The other consumer portfolio comprises consumer loans not secured by real property, including personal lines of credit and loans, overdraft lines, and vehicle loans. This category also includes other loan items such as overdrawn deposit accounts as well as loans and loan payments in process. We have several pass credit grades that are assigned to loans based on varying levels of risk, ranging from credits that are secured by cash or marketable securities, to watch credits which have all the characteristics of an acceptable credit risk but warrant more than the normal level of monitoring. Special mention loans are those that are currently protected by the sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower, but that are potentially weak and constitute an additional credit risk. These loans have the potential to deteriorate to a substandard grade due to the existence of financial or administrative deficiencies. Substandard loans have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardizes the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Some substandard loans are inadequately protected by the sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower and of the collateral pledged and may be considered impaired. Substandard loans can be accruing or can be on nonaccrual depending on the circumstances of the individual loans. 84 Table of Contents Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in substandard loans with the added characteristics that the weaknesses make collection in full highly questionable and improbable. The possibility of loss is extremely high. All doubtful loans are on nonaccrual. Classified loans represent the sum of loans graded substandard and doubtful. The methodology used in the estimation of the allowance, which is performed at least quarterly, is designed to be dynamic and responsive to changes in portfolio credit quality and forecasted economic conditions. Changes are reflected in the pool-basis allowance and in specific reserves assigned on an individual basis as the collectability of classified loans is evaluated with new information. As our portfolio has matured, historical loss ratios have been closely monitored. The review of the appropriateness of the allowance is performed by executive management and presented to management committees, Director’s Loan Committee, the Audit Committee, and the Board of Directors. The committees' reports to the Board are part of the Board's review on a quarterly basis of our consolidated financial statements. When management determines that foreclosure is probable, and for certain collateral-dependent loans where foreclosure is not considered probable, expected credit losses are based on the estimated fair value of the collateral adjusted for selling costs, when appropriate. A loan is considered collateral-dependent when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral. Expected credit losses are estimated over the contractual term of the loans, adjusted for expected prepayments when appropriate. The contractual term excludes expected extensions, renewals and modifications unless management has a reasonable expectation that a loan will be in a trouble debt restructuring. We do not measure an ACL on accrued interest receivable balances because these balances are written off in a timely manner as a reduction to interest income when loans are placed on nonaccrual status. Collateral Dependent Financial Assets Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. For collateral dependent financial assets where the Company has determined that foreclosure of the collateral is probable, or where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the Company expects repayment of the financial asset to be provided substantially through the sale of the collateral, the ACL is measured based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the amortized cost basis of the asset as of the measurement date. When repayment is expected to be from the operation of the collateral, expected credit losses are calculated as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the financial asset exceeds the NPV from the operation of the collateral. When repayment is expected to be from the sale of the collateral, expected credit losses are calculated as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the financial asset exceeds the fair value of the underlying collateral less estimated cost to sell. The ACL may be zero if the fair value of the collateral at the measurement date exceeds the amortized cost basis of the financial asset. A loan that has been modified or renewed is considered a TDR when two conditions are met: 1) the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and 2) concessions are made for the borrower's benefit that would not otherwise be considered for a borrower or transaction with similar credit risk characteristics. The Company’s ACL reflects all effects of a TDR when an individual asset is specifically identified as a reasonably expected TDR. The Company has determined that a TDR is reasonably expected no later than the point when the lender concludes that modification is the best course of action and it is at least reasonably possible that the troubled borrower will accept some form of concession from the lender to avoid a default. Reasonably expected TDRs and executed non-performing TDRs are evaluated individually to determine the required ACL. For further detail on TDRs regarding the CARES Act, please see "Risks and Uncertainties - Lending operations and accommodations to borrowers" above. Allowance for Credit Losses - Available-for-Sale Debt Securities Although ASC 326 replaced the legacy other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) model with a credit loss model, it retained the fundamental nature of the legacy OTTI model. One notable change from the legacy OTTI model is when evaluating whether credit loss exists, an entity may no longer consider the length of time fair value has been less than amortized cost. For AFS debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company 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 criterion 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 Company 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 85 Table of Contents 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 is 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 ACL 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 ACL is recognized in other comprehensive income, as a non-credit-related impairment. The entire amount of an impairment loss is recognized in earnings only when: (1) the Company intends to sell the security; or (2) it is more likely than not that the Company will have to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis; or (3) the Company does not expect to recover the entire amortized cost basis of the security. In all other situations, only the portion of the impairment loss representing the credit loss must be recognized in earnings, with the remaining portion being recognized in other comprehensive income, net of deferred taxes. Changes in the ACL are recorded as a provision for (or reversal of) credit losses. Losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of an AFS security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met. We have made a policy election to exclude accrued interest from the amortized cost basis of available-for-sale debt securities and report accrued interest separately in accrued interest and other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Available-for-sale debt securities are placed on nonaccrual status when we no longer expect to receive all contractual amounts due, which is generally at 90 days past due. Accrued interest receivable is reversed against interest income when a security is placed on nonaccrual status. Accordingly, we do not recognize an allowance for credit loss against accrued interest receivable. Loan Commitments and Allowance for Credit Losses on Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures 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 Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for off-balance sheet loan commitments is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded. The Company records a reserve for unfunded commitments (“RUC”) on off-balance sheet credit exposures through a charge to provision for credit loss expense in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Income. The RUC on off-balance sheet credit exposures is estimated by loan segment at each balance sheet date under the current expected credit loss model using the same methodologies as portfolio loans, taking into consideration the likelihood that funding will occur, and is included in the RUC on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Premises and Equipment Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization computed using the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes. Premises and equipment are depreciated over the useful lives of the assets, which generally range from three to seven years for furniture, fixtures and equipment, three to five years for computer software and hardware, and five to twenty years for leasehold improvements. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the terms of the respective leases, which may include renewal options where management has the positive intent to exercise such options, or the estimated useful lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter. The costs of major renewals and betterments are capitalized, while the costs of ordinary maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. These costs are included as a component of premises and equipment expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Other Real Estate Owned (OREO) Assets acquired through loan foreclosure are held for sale and are recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs when acquired, establishing a new cost basis. The new basis is supported by appraisals that are generally no more than twelve months old. Costs after acquisition are generally expensed. If the fair value of the asset declines, a write-down is recorded through noninterest expense. The valuation of foreclosed assets is subjective in nature and may be adjusted in the future because of changes in market conditions or appraised values. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets 86 Table of Contents Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired, including other intangible assets. Other intangible assets include purchased assets that lack physical substance but can be distinguished from goodwill because of contractual or other legal rights. Intangible assets that have finite lives, such as core deposit intangibles, are amortized over their estimated useful lives. All intangible assets are subject to periodic impairment testing. Intangible assets (other than goodwill) are amortized to expense using accelerated or straight-line methods over their respective estimated useful lives. Goodwill is subject to impairment testing at the reporting unit level, which must be conducted at least annually or upon the occurrence of a triggering event. The Company has determined that it has a single reporting unit. If the fair values of the reporting unit exceed the book value, no write-down of recorded goodwill is required. If the fair value of a reporting unit is less than book value, an expense may be required to write-down the related goodwill to the proper carrying value. Any impairment would be recorded through a reduction of goodwill or other intangible asset and an offsetting charge to noninterest expense. The Company performs impairment testing at any quarter-end when events or changes in circumstances indicate the assets might be impaired, or at least annually as of December 31. The Company performs a qualitative impairment assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the only reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. The Company assesses qualitative factors on a quarterly basis. Based on the assessment of these qualitative factors, if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is not less than the carrying value, then performing the impairment process is not necessary. However, if it is determined that it is more likely than not that the carrying value exceeds the fair value, a quantified analysis is required to determine whether an impairment exists. Based on the results of qualitative assessments of the reporting unit, the Company concluded that no impairment existed at December 31, 2021. However, future events could cause the Company to conclude that goodwill or other intangibles have become impaired, which would result in recording an impairment loss. Any resulting impairment loss could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Interest Rate Swap Derivatives As required by ASC Topic 815, " Derivatives and Hedging ", the Company records all derivatives on the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of derivatives depends on the intended use of the derivative, whether the Company has elected to designate a derivative in a hedging relationship and apply hedge accounting and whether the hedging relationship has satisfied the criteria necessary to apply hedge accounting. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to changes in the fair value of an asset, liability, or firm commitment attributable to a particular risk, such as interest rate risk, are considered fair value hedges. Derivatives designated and qualifying as a hedge of the exposure to variability in expected future cash flows, or other types of forecasted transactions, are considered cash flow hedges. Hedge accounting generally provides for the matching of the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instrument with the recognition of the changes in the fair value of the hedged asset or liability that are attributable to the hedged risk in a fair value hedge or the earnings effect of the hedged forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge. The Company may enter into derivative contracts that are intended to economically hedge certain of its risks, even though hedge accounting does not apply or the Company elects not to apply hedge accounting. Revenue Recognition The majority of our revenue-generating transactions are not subject to ASC 606 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers", including revenue generated from financial instruments, such as our loans, letters of credit, derivatives and investment securities, as well as revenue related to our mortgage servicing activities, as these activities are subject to other GAAP discussed elsewhere within our disclosures. Substantially all of the Company’s revenue is generated from contracts with customers. Descriptions of our revenue-generating activities that are within the scope of ASC 606, which are presented in our income statements as components of noninterest income are as follows: • Service charges on deposit accounts (i.e. ATM fees) - These represent general service fees for monthly account maintenance and activity- or transaction-based fees and consist of transaction-based revenue, time-based revenue (service period), item-based revenue or some other individual attribute-based revenue. Revenue is recognized when our performance obligation is completed which is generally monthly for account maintenance services or when a transaction has been completed (such as a wire transfer). Payment for such performance obligations are generally received at the time the performance obligations are satisfied. • Other Fees (i.e. insurance commissions, investment advisory fees, credit card fees, interchange fees) – Generally, the Company receives compensation when a customer that it refers opens an account with certain third-parties. 87 Table of Contents • Sale of OREO – The Company assesses whether it is “probable” that it will collect the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for transferring the asset to the customer. Customer Repurchase Agreements The Company enters into agreements under which it sells securities subject to an obligation to repurchase the same securities. Under these arrangements, the Company may transfer legal control over the assets but still retain effective control through an agreement that both entitles and obligates the Company to repurchase the assets. As a result, securities sold under agreements to repurchase are accounted for as collateralized financing arrangements and not as a sale and subsequent repurchase of securities. The agreements are entered into primarily as accommodations for large commercial deposit customers. The obligation to repurchase the securities is reflected as a liability in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, while the securities underlying the securities sold under agreements to repurchase remain in the respective asset accounts and are delivered to and held as collateral by third party trustees. Marketing and Advertising Marketing and advertising costs are generally expensed as incurred. Income Taxes The Company employs the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes as required by ASC 740, “ Income Taxes .” Under this method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax bases of existing assets and liabilities (i.e. temporary differences) and are measured at the enacted rates that will be in effect when these differences reverse. The Company utilizes statutory requirements for its income tax accounting, and limits risks associated with potentially problematic tax positions that may incur challenge upon audit, where an adverse outcome is more likely than not. Therefore, no provisions are necessary for either uncertain tax positions nor accompanying potential tax penalties and interest for underpayments of income taxes in the Company’s tax valuation allowance. In accordance with ASC 740, the Company may establish a reserve against deferred tax assets in those cases where realization is less than certain. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and penalties on income taxes in other noninterest expenses. The Company remains subject to examination for income tax returns by the Internal Revenue Service, as well as all of the states where it conducts business, for the years ending after December 31, 2018. There are currently no examinations in process as of December 31, 2021. Transfer of Financial Assets Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) 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 (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity. In certain cases, the recourse to the Bank to repurchase assets may exist but is deemed immaterial based on the specific facts and circumstances. Earnings per Common Share Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period measured. Diluted earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period including the potential dilutive effects of common stock equivalents. 88 Table of Contents Stock-Based Compensation In accordance with ASC Topic 718, “Compensation,” the Company records as salaries and employee benefits expense on its Consolidated Statements of Income an amount equal to the amortization (over the remaining service period) of the fair value of option and restricted stock awards computed at the date of grant. Salary and employee benefits expense on variable stock grants (i.e., performance based grants) is recorded based on the probability of achievement of the goals underlying the performance grant. Refer to Note 17 - "Stock-Based Compensation" for a description of stock-based compensation awards, activity and expense for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019. The Company records the discount from the fair market value of shares issued under its Employee Share Purchase Plan as a component of Salaries and employee benefits expense in its Consolidated Statement of Income. Segment Reporting While the chief operating decision-maker monitors the revenue streams of the various products and services, operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Operating results are not reviewed by senior management to make resource allocation or performance decisions. Accordingly, all of the financial service operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment. New Authoritative Accounting Guidance Accounting Standards Adopted in 2021 Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2019-12, "Income Taxes (Topic 740)" ("ASU 2019-12"), simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions and improves the consistent application of GAAP by clarifying and amending other existing guidance. ASU 2019-12 was effective for us on January 1, 2021 and did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements for fiscal year 2021. ASU No. 2021-06, "Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205), Financial Services - Depository and Lending (Topic 942), and Financial Services - Investment Companies (Topic 946): Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Final Rules Release No. 33-10786, Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses, and No. 33-10835, Update of Statistical Disclosures for Bank and Savings and Loan Registrants," was effective August 2021, upon addition to the ASC and it did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements. ASU No. 2021-04, "Earnings Per Share (Topic 260), Debt - Modifications and Extinguishments (Subtopic 470-50), Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718), and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Issuer's Accounting for Certain Modification of Exchanges of Freestanding Equity - Classified Written Call Options (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force)." The ASU addresses how an issuer should account for modifications or and exchange of freestanding written call options classified as equity that is not within the scope of another Topic. For both public and private companies, the ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021 and was adopted effective January 1, 2022. It did not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements. Accounting Standards Pending Adoption ASU 2020-4, " Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)" ("ASU 2020-4"), provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to loan and lease agreements, derivative contracts, and other transactions affected by the anticipated transition away from LIBOR toward new interest rate benchmarks. For transactions that are modified because of reference rate reform and that meet certain scope guidance (i) modifications of loan agreements should be accounted for by prospectively adjusting the effective interest rate and the modification will be considered "minor" so that any existing unamortized origination fees/ costs would carry forward and continue to be amortized and (ii) modifications of lease agreements should be accounted for as a continuation of the existing agreement with no reassessments of the lease classification and the discount rate or remeasurements of lease payments that otherwise would be required for modifications not accounted for as separate contracts. ASU 2020-4 also provides numerous optional expedients for derivative accounting. ASU 2020-4 is effective March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. An entity may elect to apply ASU 2020-4 for contract modifications as of January 1, 2020, or prospectively from a date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, up to the date that the financial statements are available to be issued. Once elected for a Topic or an Industry Subtopic within the Codification, the amendments in this ASU must be applied prospectively for all eligible contract modifications for that Topic or Industry Subtopic. As we have evaluated our portfolio, LIBOR based loans have been modified with fallback language in accordance with ASU 2020-04 and the expectation of a change in index is not expected to have a material impact on the accounting for those loans. 89 Table of Contents ASU No. 2020-06, "Debt - Debt with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic 470-20) and Derivatives and Hedging - Contracts in Entity's Own Equity (Subtopic 815-40): Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity's Own Equity" ("the ASU') simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current U.S. GAAP. Consequently, more convertible debt instruments will be reported as a single liability instrument and more convertible preferred stock as a single equity instrument with no separate accounting for embedded conversion features. The ASU removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception, which will permit more equity contracts to qualify for it. The ASU also simplifies the diluted earnings per share (EPS) calculation in certain areas. In addition, the amendment updates the disclosure requirements for convertible instruments to increase the information transparency. For public business entities, excluding smaller reporting companies, the amendments in the ASU are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2020-06 to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. Note 2 – Cash and Due from Banks Regulation D of the Federal Reserve Act requires that banks maintain noninterest reserve balances with the Federal Reserve Bank ("FRB") based principally on the type and amount of their deposits. During 2021, the Bank maintained balances at the Federal Reserve sufficient to meet reserve requirements, as well as significant excess reserves, on which interest is paid. The average daily balance maintained in 2021 was $ 2.3 billion a nd in 2020 was $ 1.1 billion. The Company also has deposits with other banks that serve as collateral for derivative positions it holds, totaling $ 6.3 million at December 31, 2021 and $ 5.1 million at December 31, 2020. Derivative positions are reflected in Other Assets and Liabilities as discussed in Note 10 - Other Derivatives. Additionally, the Bank maintains interest-bearing balances with the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of Atlanta and noninterest bearing balances with domestic correspondent banks to cover associated costs for services they provide to the Bank. ` Note 3 – Investment Securities Available-for-Sale Amortized cost and estimated fair value of securities available-for-sale are summarized as follows: December 31, 2021 Amortized Cost Gross Unrealized Gains Gross Unrealized Losses Allowance for Estimated Fair Value (dollars in thousands) Credit Losses U.S. treasury bonds $ 49,693 $ 22 $ ( 257 ) $ — $ 49,458 U.S. agency securities 629,273 736 ( 7,622 ) — 622,387 Residential mortgage backed securities 1,692,773 5,697 ( 20,797 ) — 1,677,673 Municipal bonds 141,916 3,865 ( 347 ) ( 3 ) 145,431 Corporate bonds 129,012 648 ( 584 ) ( 617 ) 128,459 $ 2,642,667 $ 10,968 $ ( 29,607 ) $ ( 620 ) $ 2,623,408 December 31, 2020 Amortized Cost Gross Unrealized Gains Gross Unrealized Losses Allowance for Estimated Fair Value (dollars in thousands) Credit Losses U.

The unrealized losses that exist at December 31, 2021 are generally the result of changes in market interest rates and interest spread relationships since original purchases. However, as of December 31, 2021, the Company determined that part of the unrealized loss positions in AFS corporate and municipal securities could be due to credit-related events, and therefore, provisions for credit losses of $ 453 thousand and $ 167 thousand were recorded as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. If quoted prices are not available, fair value is measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security’s credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such as credit loss assumptions. The Company does not intend to sell the investments and it is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell the securities before recovery of its amortized cost basis, which may be at maturity. Gross unrealized losses and fair value by length of time that the individual available-for-sale securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 are as follows: Less than 12 Months 12 Months or Greater Total December 31, 2021 Number of Securities Estimated Fair Value Unrealized Losses Estimated Fair Value Unrealized Losses Estimated Fair Value Unrealized Losses (dollars in thousands) U.S. Treasury Bond 1 $ 24,593 $ 257 $ — $ — $ 24,593 $ 257 U.

In 2020, gross realized gains on sales of investment securities were $ 1.9 million and gross realized losses on sales of investment securities were $ 46 thousand. In 2019, gross realized gains on sales of investment securities were $ 1.7 million and gross realized losses on sales of investment securities were $ 153 thousand. Proceeds from sales and calls of investment securities for 2021, 2020, and 2019 were $ 201.0 million, $ 124.1 million, and $ 104.8 million, respectively. The carrying value of securities pledged as collateral for certain government deposits, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and certain lines of credit with correspondent banks at December 31, 2021 was $ 261.0 million and $ 268.4 million at December 31, 2020, which is well in excess of required amounts in order to operationally provide significant reserve amounts for new business. As of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were no holdings of securities of any one issuer, other than the U.S. Government and U.S. agency securities, which exceeded ten percent of shareholders’ equity. 92 Table of Contents Note 4 – Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses The Bank makes loans to customers primarily in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area and surrounding communities. A substantial portion of the Bank’s loan portfolio consists of loans to businesses secured by real estate and other business assets. Loans, net of unamortized net deferred fees, at December 31, 2021 and 2020 are summarized by type as follows: December 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands) Amount % Amount % Commercial $ 1,354,317 19 % $ 1,437,433 19 % PPP loans 51,105 1 % 454,771 6 % Income producing - commercial real estate 3,385,298 48 % 3,687,000 47 % Owner occupied - commercial real estate 1,087,776 15 % 997,694 13 % Real estate mortgage - residential 73,966 1 % 76,592 1 % Construction - commercial and residential 896,319 13 % 873,261 11 % Construction - C&I (owner occupied) 159,579 2 % 158,905 2 % Home equity 55,811 1 % 73,167 1 % Other consumer 1,427 — 1,389 — Total loans 7,065,598 100 % 7,760,212 100 % Less: allowance for credit losses ( 74,965 ) ( 109,579 ) Net loans $ 6,990,633 $ 7,650,633 Unamortized net deferred fees amounted to $ 26.9 million and $ 30.8 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, of which $ 15 thousand and $ 30 thousand at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, represented net deferred costs on home equity loans. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Bank serviced $ 120.3 million and $ 124.0 million, respectively, of multifamily FHA loans, SBA loans and other loan participations, which are not reflected as loan balances on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Real estate loans are secured primarily by duly recorded first deeds of trust or mortgages. In some cases, the Bank may accept a recorded junior trust position. In general, borrowers will have a proven ability to build, lease, manage and/or sell a commercial or residential project and demonstrate satisfactory financial condition. Additionally, an equity contribution toward the project is customarily required. Construction loans require that the financial condition and experience of the general contractor and major subcontractors be satisfactory to the Bank. Guaranteed, fixed price contracts are required whenever appropriate, along with payment and performance bonds or completion bonds for larger scale projects. Loans intended for residential land acquisition, lot development and construction are made on the premise that the land: 1) is or will be developed for building sites for residential structures; and 2) will ultimately be utilized for construction or improvement of residential zoned real properties, including the creation of housing. Residential development and construction loans will finance projects such as single family subdivisions, planned unit developments, townhouses, and condominiums. Residential land acquisition, development and construction loans generally are underwritten with a maximum term of 36 months, including extensions approved at origination. Commercial land acquisition and construction loans are secured by real property where loan funds will be used to acquire land and to construct or improve appropriately zoned real property for the creation of income producing or owner user commercial properties. Borrowers are generally required to put equity into each project at levels determined by the appropriate Loan Committee. Commercial land acquisition and construction loans generally are underwritten with a maximum term of 24 months. Substantially all construction draw requests must be presented in writing on American Institute of Architects documents and certified either by the contractor, the borrower and/or the borrower’s architect. Each draw request shall also include the borrower’s soft cost breakdown certified by the borrower or their Chief Financial Officer. Prior to an advance, the Bank or its contractor inspects the project to determine that the work has been completed, to justify the draw requisition. 93 Table of Contents Commercial permanent loans are generally secured by improved real property which is generating income in the normal course of operation. Debt service coverage, assuming stabilized occupancy, must be satisfactory to support a permanent loan. The debt service coverage ratio is ordinarily at least 1.15 to 1.0. As part of the underwriting process, debt service coverage ratios are stress tested assuming a 200 basis point increase in interest rates from their current levels. Commercial permanent loans generally are underwritten with a term not greater than 10 years or the remaining useful life of the property, whichever is lower. The preferred term is between five to seven years , with amortization to a maximum of 25 years. The Company’s loan portfolio includes ADC real estate loans including both investment and owner occupied projects. ADC loans amounted to $ 1.5 billion at December 31, 2021. A portion of the ADC portfolio, both speculative and non-speculative, includes loan funded interest reserves at origination. ADC loans that provide for the use of interest reserves represent approximately 64 % of the outstanding ADC loan portfolio at December 31, 2021. The decision to establish a loan-funded interest reserve is made upon origination of the ADC loan and is based upon a number of factors considered during underwriting of the credit including: (1) the feasibility of the project; (2) the experience of the sponsor; (3) the creditworthiness of the borrower and guarantors; (4) borrower equity contribution; and (5) the level of collateral protection. When appropriate, an interest reserve provides an effective means of addressing the cash flow characteristics of a properly underwritten ADC loan. The Company does not significantly utilize interest reserves in other loan products. The Company recognizes that one of the risks inherent in the use of interest reserves is the potential masking of underlying problems with the project and/or the borrower’s ability to repay the loan. In order to mitigate this inherent risk, the Company employs a series of reporting and monitoring mechanisms on all ADC loans, whether or not an interest reserve is provided, including: (1) construction and development timelines which are monitored on an ongoing basis which track the progress of a given project to the timeline projected at origination; (2) a construction loan administration department independent of the lending function; (3) third party independent construction loan inspection reports; (4) monthly interest reserve monitoring reports detailing the balance of the interest reserves approved at origination and the days of interest carry represented by the reserve balances as compared to the then current anticipated time to completion and/or sale of speculative projects; and (5) quarterly commercial real estate construction meetings among senior Company management, which includes monitoring of current and projected real estate market conditions. If a project has not performed as expected, it is not the customary practice of the Company to increase loan funded interest reserves. The following tables detail activity in the ACL by portfolio segment for the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. PPP loans are excluded from these tables since they do not carry an allowance for credit loss, as these loans are fully guaranteed as to principal and interest by the SBA, whose guarantee is backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. Allocation of a portion of the allowance to one category of loans does not preclude its availability to absorb losses in other categories.

The Company’s primary credit quality indicator is an internal credit risk rating system that categorizes loans into pass, watch, special mention, or classified categories. Credit risk ratings are applied individually to those classes of loans that have significant or unique credit characteristics that benefit from a case-by-case evaluation. These are typically loans to businesses or individuals in the classes which comprise the commercial portfolio segment. Groups of loans that are underwritten and structured using standardized criteria and characteristics, such as statistical models (e.g., credit scoring or payment performance), are typically risk rated and monitored collectively. These are typically loans to individuals in the classes which comprise the consumer portfolio segment. The following are the definitions of the Company’s credit quality indicators: Pass: Loans in all classes that comprise the commercial and consumer portfolio segments that are not adversely rated, are contractually current as to principal and interest, and are otherwise in compliance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Management believes that there is a low likelihood of loss related to those loans that are considered pass. Watch: Loan is paying as agreed with generally acceptable asset quality; however the obligor’s performance has not met expectations. Balance sheet and/or income statement has shown deterioration to the point that the obligor could not sustain any further setbacks. Credit is expected to be strengthened through improved obligor performance and/or additional collateral within a reasonable period of time. Special Mention: Loans in the classes that comprise the commercial portfolio segment that have potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If not addressed, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan. The special mention credit quality indicator is not used for classes of loans that comprise the consumer portfolio segment. Management believes that there is a moderate likelihood of some loss related to those loans that are considered special mention. Classified: Classified (a) Substandard – Loans inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard loans, does not have to exist in individual loans classified substandard. Classified (b) Doubtful – Loans that have all the weaknesses inherent in a loan classified 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 possibility of loss is extremely high, but because of certain important and reasonably specific pending factors, which may work to the advantage and strengthening of the assets, its classification as an estimated loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined. 96 Table of Contents The Company’s credit quality indicators are updated on an ongoing basis along with our credits rated watch or below reviews.

Loans are placed on nonaccrual status when, in management’s opinion, the borrower may be unable to meet payment obligations as they become due, as well as when required by regulatory provisions. Loans may be placed on nonaccrual status regardless of whether or not such loans are considered past due. Interest income is subsequently recognized only to the extent cash payments are received in excess of principal due. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. The following table presents, by class of loan, information related to nonaccrual loans as of December 31, 2021 and 2020.

See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for a description of the Company’s policy for placing loans on nonaccrual status. (3) The CARES Act created the PPP, a program designed to aid small- and medium-sized businesses through federally guaranteed loans distributed through banks. These loans are intended to guarantee payroll and other costs to help those businesses remain viable and allow their workers to pay their bills. 100 Table of Contents The following table presents, by class of loan, an aging analysis and the recorded investments in loans past due as of December 31, 2021 and 2020.

The Company offers various types of concessions when modifying a loan. Commercial and industrial loans modified in a TDR often involve temporary interest-only payments, term extensions, and converting revolving credit lines to term loans. Additional collateral, a co-borrower, or a guarantor is often requested. Commercial mortgage and construction loans modified in a TDR often involve reducing the interest rate for the remaining term of the loan, extending the maturity date at an interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk, or substituting or adding a new borrower or guarantor. Construction loans modified in a TDR may also involve extending the interest-only payment period. As of December 31, 2021, all performing TDRs were categorized as interest-only modifications. Loans modified in a TDR for the Company may have the financial effect of increasing the specific allowance associated with the loan. An allowance for consumer and commercial loans that have been modified in a TDR is measured based on the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the estimated fair value of the collateral, less any selling costs, if the loan is collateral dependent. Management exercises significant judgment in developing these estimates. 101 Table of Contents In response to the COVID-19 pandemic and its economic impact to our customers, we implemented a short-term modification program that complies with the CARES Act and ASC 310-40 to provide temporary payment relief to those borrowers directly impacted by COVID-19 who were not more than 30 days past due as of December 31, 2019. This program allowed for a deferral of payments for 90 days, which we extended for an additional 90 days for certain loans, for a maximum of 180 days on a cumulative and successive basis. The deferred payments along with interest accrued during the deferral period are due and payable on the maturity date. Additionally, none of the deferrals are reflected in the Company's asset quality measures (i.e. non-performing loans) due to the provision of the CARES Act that permits U.S. financial institutions to temporarily suspend the GAAP requirements to treat such short-term loan modifications as TDR. Similar provisions have also been confirmed by interagency guidance issued by the federal banking agencies and confirmed with staff members of the Financial Accounting Standards Board. The following tables presents, by class, the recorded investment of loans modified in TDRs held by the Company during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. As of December 31, 2021 (dollars in thousands) Number of Contracts Commercial Income Producing - Commercial Real Estate Owner Occupied - Commercial Real Estate Construction - Commercial Real Estate Total Troubled debt restructurings Restructured accruing 5 $ 1,043 $ 9,116 $ — $ — $ 10,159 Restructured nonaccruing 2 — 6,342 — — 6,342 Total 7 $ 1,043 $ 15,458 $ — $ — $ 16,501 Specific allowance $ 140 $ 3,216 $ — $ — $ 3,356 Restructured and subsequently defaulted $ — $ 6,342 $ — $ — $ 6,342 As of December 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands) Number of Contracts Commercial Income Producing - Commercial Real Estate Owner Occupied - Commercial Real Estate Construction - Commercial Real Estate Total Troubled debt restructurings Restructured accruing 7 $ 1,276 $ 9,183 $ 13 $ — $ 10,472 Restructured nonaccruing 3 — 6,342 2,370 — 8,712 Total 10 $ 1,276 $ 15,525 $ 2,383 $ — $ 19,184 Specific allowance $ 733 $ 2,989 $ — $ — $ 3,722 Restructured and subsequently defaulted $ — $ 6,342 $ 2,370 $ — $ 8,712 The Company had seven TDRs at December 31, 2021, totaling $ 16.5 million, as compared to ten TDRs totaling $ 19.2 million at December 31, 2020. At December 31, 2021, five of these TDR loans, totaling $ 10.2 million, were performing under their modified terms, as compared to December 31, 2020, when there were seven performing TDR loans totaling approximately $ 10.5 million. During 2021, there was one performing TDRs totaling $ 101 thousand that defaulted on their modified terms that were reclassified to nonperforming loans, as compared to two performing TDR loans during 2020 totaling approximately $ 6.3 million that defaulted on their modified terms and either charged-off or were reclassified to nonperforming loans. A default is considered to have occurred once the TDR is past due 90 days or more, or has been placed on nonaccrual. During 2021, one previously nonperforming restructured loan had its collateral sold and all principal collected along with partial collection of delinquent interest; one restructured loan purchased as part of the 2014 acquisition of Virginia Heritage Bank had its full carrying value collected, while additional payments are expected to recover previously written off principal and interest; 102 Table of Contents and, the aforementioned performing TDR totaling $ 101 thousand that defaulted in 2021 was subsequently charged off later in the year. During 2020, there were two restructured loans totaling approximately $ 870 thousand that had their collateral property sold and were paid in full, and one TDR loan totaling $ 138 thousand that had previously defaulted was charged off. Commercial and consumer loans modified in a TDR are closely monitored for delinquency as an early indicator of possible future default. If loans modified in a TDR subsequently default, the Company evaluates the loan for possible further loss. The allowance may be increased, adjustments may be made in the allocation of the allowance, or partial charge-offs may be taken to further write-down the carrying value of the loan. During 2021, there were no loans modified in a TDR, as compared to two loans during 2020 totaling approximately $ 572 thousand modified in a TDR. Related Party Loans Certain directors and executive officers of the Company and the Bank and certain affiliated entities of such directors and executive officers have had loan transactions with the Company. All of such loans are either fully repaid or performing and none of such loans are nonaccrual, past due, restructured or, rated substandard or worse (not on nonaccrual). The following table summarizes changes in amounts of loans outstanding, both direct and indirect, to those persons during 2021 and 2020. Amounts in the “Additions due to Changes in Related Parties” reflect existing outstanding loans that transitioned to being related party loans between January 1, 2021 and December 31, 2021 as a result of changes in related party status with respect to certain of the Company’s directors who are affiliated with the related borrowers.

Note 6 – Leases A lease is defined as a contract that conveys the right to control the use of identified property, plant or equipment for a period of time in exchange for consideration. Substantially all of the leases in which the Company is the lessee are comprised of real estate property for branch offices, ATM locations, and corporate office space. Substantially all of our leases are classified as operating leases, and as such, were previously not recognized on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. With the adoption of ASC 842, operating lease agreements were required to be recognized on the consolidated balance sheets as a right-of-use (“ROU”) asset and a corresponding lease liability. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had $ 30.6 million of operating lease ROU assets and $ 35.5 million of operating lease liabilities on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company has elected not to recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities arising from short-term leases, leases with initial terms of twelve months or less, or equipment leases (deemed immaterial) on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our leases contain terms and conditions of options to extend or terminate the lease which are recognized as part of the ROU assets and lease liabilities when an economic benefit to exercise the option exists and there is a 90 % probability that the Company will exercise the option. If these criteria are not met, the options are not included in our ROU assets and lease liabilities. As of December 31, 2021, our leases do not contain material residual value guarantees or impose restrictions or covenants related to dividends or the Company’s ability to incur additional financial obligations. In 2021, the Company entered into two new leases, renewed/extended three leases and had five leases expire (three branches were closed and two operations center locations were consolidated into one new location) The following table presents lease costs and other lease information.

The Bank then locks in the loan and interest rate with an investor and commits to deliver the loan if settlement occurs (“best efforts”) or commits to deliver the locked loan in a binding (“mandatory”) delivery program with an investor. Certain loans under interest rate lock commitments are covered under forward sales contracts of mortgage backed securities (“MBS”). Forward sales contracts of MBS are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in noninterest income. Interest rate lock commitments and commitments to deliver loans to investors are considered derivatives. The market value of interest rate lock commitments, best efforts, and mandatory delivery contracts are not readily ascertainable with precision because they are not actively traded in stand-alone markets. The Bank determines the fair value of interest rate lock commitments and delivery contracts by measuring the fair value of the underlying asset, which is impacted by current interest rates, taking into consideration the probability that the interest rate lock commitments will close or will be funded. Certain additional risks arise from these forward delivery contracts in that the counterparties to the contracts may not be able to meet the terms of the contracts. The Bank does not expect any counterparty to any MBS to fail to meet its obligation. Additional risks inherent in mandatory delivery programs include the risk that, if the Bank does not close the loans subject to interest rate risk lock commitments, it will still be obligated to deliver MBS to the counterparty under the forward sales agreement. Should this be required, the Bank could incur significant costs in acquiring replacement loans or MBS and such costs could have an adverse effect on mortgage banking operations. The fair values of the mortgage banking derivatives are recorded as freestanding assets or liabilities with the change in value being recognized in current earnings during the period of change. At December 31, 2021 the Bank had mortgage banking derivative financial instruments with a notional value of $ 56.3 million related to its interest rate lock commitments. The fair value of these mortgage banking derivative instruments at December 31, 2021 was $ 600 thousand included in other assets. At December 31, 2020 the Bank had mortgage banking derivative financial instruments with a notional value of $ 367.7 million related to its forward contracts. The fair value of these mortgage banking derivative instruments at December 31, 2020 was $ 5.2 million included in other assets. Included in gain on sale of loans for the year ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 was a net gain of $ 209 thousand, a net loss of $ 309 thousand and a net gain of $186 thousand, respectively, relating to mortgage banking derivative 106 Table of Contents instruments. The amount included in gain on sale of loans for year ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019 pertaining to its mortgage banking hedging activities was a net realized loss of $ 18 thousand, a net realized gain of $ 27 thousand, and a net realized loss of $116 thousand, respectively. Note 10 – Other Derivatives The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources, and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk The Company uses interest rate swap agreements to assist in its interest rate risk management. The Company’s objective in using interest rate derivatives designated as cash flow hedges is to add stability to interest expense and to better manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company utilizes interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy intended to mitigate the potential risk of rising interest rates on the Bank’s cost of funds. The notional amounts of the interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges do not represent amounts exchanged by the counterparties, but rather, the notional amount is used to determine, along with other terms of the derivative, the amounts to be exchanged between the counterparties. The interest rate swaps are designated as cash flow hedges and involve the receipt of variable rate amounts from one counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed payments. The Company’s intent is to hedge its exposure to the variability in potential future interest rate conditions on existing financial instruments. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, changes in the fair value of the derivative are initially reported in other comprehensive income (outside of earnings), net of tax, and subsequently reclassified to earnings when the hedged transaction affects earnings. The Company assesses the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in cash flows of the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in cash flows of the designated hedged transactions. As of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the Company had zero and one designated cash flow hedge interest rate swap transaction outstanding, respectively, which were associated with the Company's variable rate deposits. The Company recognized $ 829 thousand in noninterest income during March 2019 due to the termination of two of its interest rate swap transactions as part of the Company’s asset liability strategy as well as declines in market interest rates. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to designated cash flow hedge derivatives will be reclassified to interest income/expense as interest payments are made/received on the Company’s variable-rate assets/liabilities. Non-designated Hedges Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and result from a service the Company provides to certain customers. The Company executes interest rate caps and swaps with commercial banking customers to facilitate their respective risk management strategies. Those interest rate swaps are simultaneously hedged by offsetting derivatives that the Company executes with a third party, such that the Company minimizes its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. As the interest rate derivatives associated with this program do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer derivatives and the offsetting derivatives are recognized directly in earnings. The Company entered into credit risk participation agreements (“RPAs”) with institutional counterparties, under which the Company assumes its pro-rata share of the credit exposure associated with a borrower’s performance related to interest rate derivative contracts in exchange for a fee. The fair value of RPAs is calculated by determining the total expected asset or liability exposure of the derivatives to the borrowers and applying the borrowers’ credit spread to that exposure. Total expected exposure incorporates both the current and potential future exposure of the derivatives, derived from using observable inputs, such as yield curves and volatilities. Credit-risk-related Contingent Features The Company has agreements with each of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations. 107 Table of Contents The Company is exposed to credit risk in the event of nonperformance by the interest rate swap counterparty. The Company minimizes this risk by entering into derivative contracts with only large, stable financial institutions, and the Company has not experienced, and does not expect, any losses from counterparty nonperformance on the interest rate derivatives. The Company monitors counterparty risk in accordance with the provisions of ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging." In addition, the interest rate derivative agreements contain language outlining collateral-pledging requirements for each counterparty. The designated interest rate derivative agreements detail: 1) that collateral be posted when the market value exceeds certain threshold limits associated with the secured party's exposure; 2) if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness (including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender), then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations; and 3) if the Company fails to maintain its status as a well-capitalized institution then the counterparty could terminate the derivative positions and the Company would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements. As of December 31, 2021, the aggregate fair value of derivative contracts with credit risk contingent features (i.e. containing collateral posting or termination provisions based on our capital status) that was in a net liability position totaled $ 2.4 million. The aggregate fair value of all derivative contracts with credit risk contingent features that were a net liability position totaled $ 4.2 million as of December 31, 2020. The Company has minimum collateral posting thresholds with certain of its derivative counterparties. As of December 31, 2021 the Company posted $ 2.9 million with its derivative counterparties against its obligations under these agreements because these agreements were in a net liability position. At December 31, 2020, the Company posted $ 1.5 million with its derivative counterparties against its obligations under these agreements because these agreements were in a net liability position. If the Company had breached any provisions under the agreements at December 31, 2021 or December 31, 2020, it could have been required to settle its obligations under the agreements at the termination value. The table below identifies the balance sheet category and fair value of the Company’s designated cash flow hedge derivative instruments and non-designated hedges as of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Note 12 – Affordable Housing Projects Tax Credit Partnerships Included in Other Assets, the Company makes equity investments in various limited partnerships that sponsor affordable housing projects utilizing the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (“LIHTC”) pursuant to Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code. The purpose of these investments is to achieve a satisfactory return on capital, to facilitate the sale of affordable housing products offerings, and to assist in achieving goals associated with the Community Reinvestment Act. The primary activities of the limited partnerships include the identification, development, and operation of multi-family housing that is leased to qualifying residential tenants. Generally, these types of investments are funded through a combination of debt and equity. The Company is a limited partner in each LIHTC limited partnership. Each limited partnership is managed by an unrelated third party general partner who exercises significant control over the affairs of the limited partnership. The general partner has all the rights, powers and authority granted or permitted to be granted to a general partner of a limited partnership. Duties entrusted to the general partner of each limited partnership include, but are not limited to: investment in operating companies, company expenditures, investment of excess funds, borrowing funds, employment of agents, disposition of fund property, prepayment and refinancing of liabilities, votes and consents, contract authority, disbursement of funds, accounting methods, tax elections, bank accounts, insurance, litigation, cash reserve, and use of working capital reserve funds. Except for limited rights granted to the limited partner(s) relating to the approval of certain transactions, the limited partner(s) may not participate in the operation, management, or control of the limited partnership’s business, transact any business in the limited partnership’s name or have any power to sign documents for or otherwise bind the limited partnership. In addition, the general partner may only be removed by the limited partner(s) in the event the general partner fails to comply with the terms of the agreement or is negligent in performing its duties. The general partner of each limited partnership has both the power to direct the activities which most significantly affect the performance of each partnership and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be significant to the entities. Therefore, the Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of any LIHTC partnership. The Company accounts for its affordable housing tax credit investments using the proportional amortization method. The Company’s net affordable housing tax credit investment s were $ 36.4 million and related unfunded commitments were $ 16.5 million as of December 31, 2021, and are included in Other Assets and Other Liabilities in the C onsolidated Balance Sheets. 111 Table of Contents As of December 31, 2021, the expected payments for unfunded affordable housing commitments were as follows: Years Ending December 31: (dollars in thousands) Amount 2022 7,973 2023 5,059 2024 1,964 2025 179 2026 290 Thereafter 1,039 Total unfunded commitments $ 16,504 112 Table of Contents Note 13 – Borrowings Information relating to short-term and long-term borrowings is as follows for the years ended December 31: 2021 2020 (dollars in thousands) Amount Rate Amount Rate Short-term: At Year-End: Customer repurchase agreements and federal funds purchased $ 23,918 0.20 % $ 26,726 0.26 % Federal Home Loan Bank – current portion 300,000 0.67 % 300,000 0.67 % Total $ 323,918 $ 326,726 Average Daily Balance: Customer repurchase agreements and federal funds purchased $ 24,887 0.20 % $ 29,345 1.00 % Federal Home Loan Bank – current portion 300,000 0.67 % 280,126 0.66 % Total $ 324,887 $ 309,471 Maximum Month-end Balance: Customer repurchase agreements and federal funds purchased $ 29,401 0.20 % $ 32,987 1.13 % Federal Home Loan Bank – current portion 300,000 0.67 % 300,000 0.67 % Total $ 329,401 $ 332,987 Long-term: At Year-End: Subordinated Notes $ 69,670 5.84 % $ 220,000 5.42 % FHLB Advance — — 50,000,000 1.81 % Average Daily Balance: Subordinated Notes $ 156,340 6.39 % $ 220,000 5.42 % FHLB Advance 8,630 1.84 % 50,000 1.81 % Maximum Month-end Balance: Subordinated Notes $ 218,081 5.36 % $ 220,000 5.42 % FHLB Advance 50,000 1.81 % 50,000 1.81 % The Company offers its business customers a repurchase agreement sweep account in which it collateralizes these funds with U.S. agency and mortgage backed securities segregated in its investment portfolio for this purpose. By entering into the agreement, the customer agrees to have the Bank repurchase the designated securities on the business day following the initial transaction in consideration of the payment of interest at the rate prevailing on the day of the transaction. The Bank can purchase up to $ 155 million in federal funds on an unsecured basis from its correspondents, against which there were no amounts outstanding at December 31, 2021 and can place brokered funds under one-way CDARS and ICS deposits in the amount of $ 1.8 billion, against which there was $ 79 thousand outstanding at December 31, 2021. The Bank also has a commitment at December 31, 2021 from IntraFi to place up to $ 1.8 billion of brokered deposits from its Insured Network Deposits (“IND”) program in amounts requested by the Bank, as compared to an actual balance of $ 1.6 billion at December 31, 2021. At December 31, 2021, the Bank was also eligible to take advances from the FHLB up to $ 1.1 billion based on collateral at the FHLB, of which there was $ 300 million outstanding at December 31, 2021. The Bank may enter into repurchase agreements as well as obtain additional borrowing capabilities from the FHLB provided adequate collateral exists to secure these lending relationships. The Bank also has a back-up borrowing facility through the Discount Window at the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond (“Federal Reserve Bank”). This facility, which amounts to approximately $ 549.0 million, is 113 Table of Contents collateralized with specific loan assets pledged to the Federal Reserve Bank. It is anticipated that, except for periodic testing, this facility would be utilized for contingency funding only. Long-term borrowings were $ 69.7 million at December 31, 2021 and $ 268.1 million at December 31, 2020. On August 5, 2014, the Company completed the sale of $ 70 million of its 5.75 % subordinated notes, due September 1, 2024 (the “2024 Notes”). The Notes were offered to the public at par. The 2024 Notes qualify as Tier 2 capital for regulatory purposes to the fullest extent permitted under the Basel III Rule capital requirements. The net proceeds were approximately $ 68.8 million, which includes $ 1.2 million in deferred financing costs which are being amortized over the life of the 2024 Notes. On July 26, 2016, the Company completed the sale of $ 150 million of its 5.00 % Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes, due August 1, 2026 (the “2026 Notes”). The 2026 Notes were offered to the public at par and qualified as Tier 2 capital for regulatory purposes to the fullest extent permitted under the Basel III Rule capital requirements. The net proceeds were approximately $ 147.4 million, which includes $ 2.6 million in deferred financing costs which is being amortized over the life of the 2026 Notes. This note was redeemed by the Company on August 2, 2021 to reduce ongoing interest expense and to reduce excess common equity at the Bank level. On February 26, 2020, the Bank borrowed $ 50 million dollars under its borrowing arrangement with the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta at a fixed rate of 1.81 % with a maturity date of February 26, 2030 as part of the overall asset liability strategy and to support loan growth. The advance was repaid March of 2021, as it became clear that the excess on balance sheet liquidity was not necessary. Note 14 – Income Taxes Federal and state income tax expense consists of the following for the years ended December 31: (dollars in thousands) 2021 2020 2019 Current federal income tax expense $ 39,865 $ 40,201 $ 39,756 Current state income tax expense 15,348 12,059 14,153 Total current tax expense 55,213 52,260 53,909 Deferred federal income tax expense (benefit) 5,185 ( 5,212 ) 78 Deferred state income tax benefit 585 ( 3,120 ) ( 139 ) Total deferred tax benefit 5,770 ( 8,332 ) ( 61 ) Total income tax expense $ 60,983 $ 43,928 $ 53,848 The Company had net deferred tax assets (deferred tax assets in excess of deferred tax liabilities) of $ 43.2 million and $ 38.6 million for the years ended at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, which related primarily to our allowance for credit losses, and loan origination fees. Management believes it is more likely than not that all of the deferred tax assets will be realized with the exception of certain state net operating losses. Temporary timing differences between the amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements and the tax bases of assets and liabilities result in deferred taxes. The table below summarizes significant components of our deferred tax assets and liabilities as of December 31, 2021 and 2020: 114 Table of Contents (dollars in thousands) 2021 2020 Deferred tax assets Allowance for credit losses $ 19,736 $ 28,118 Deferred loan fees and costs 6,559 8,104 Leases 9,283 7,183 Stock-based compensation 1,132 828 Net operating loss 7,623 6,896 Unrealized loss on securities available-for-sale 4,900 — Unrealized loss on interest rate swap derivatives — 132 SERP 5,631 2,495 Premises and equipment 1,328 879 Other assets 2,098 1,982 Valuation allowances ( 6,724 ) ( 5,845 ) Total deferred tax assets 51,566 50,772 Deferred tax liabilities Unrealized net gain on securities available-for-sale — ( 5,519 ) Excess servicing ( 402 ) ( 206 ) Intangible assets — — Leases ( 7,990 ) ( 6,470 ) Other liabilities — ( 6 ) Total deferred tax liabilities ( 8,392 ) ( 12,201 ) Net deferred income tax assets $ 43,174 $ 38,571 The net operating loss carry forward acquired in conjunction with the Fidelity acquisition is subject to annual limits under Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code of $ 718 thousand and expires in 2027. The Company has concluded, based on the weight of available positive and negative evidence, a portion of its state net operating loss deferred tax asset is not more likely than not to be realized and accordingly, a valuation allowance of $ 6.7 million and $ 5.8 million is carried as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. A reconciliation of the statutory federal income tax rate to the Company’s effective income tax rate for the years ended December 31 2021, 2020, and 2019 follows: 2021 2020 2019 Statutory federal income tax rate 21.00 % 21.00 % 21.00 % Increase (decrease) due to: State income taxes 5.45 % 5.04 % 5.49 % Tax exempt interest and dividend income ( 0.91 ) % ( 0.75 ) % ( 0.69 ) % Stock-based compensation expense 0.44 % 0.25 % 1.15 % Other ( 0.32 ) % ( 0.63 ) % 0.46 % Effective tax rate 25.66 % 24.91 % 27.41 % The Company remains subject to examination by taxing authorities for the years ending after December 31, 2017. Management has identified no uncertain tax positions at December 31, 2021. 115 Table of Contents Note 15 – Net Income per Common Share The calculation of net income per common share for the years ended December 31 was as follows: (dollars and shares in thousands, except per share data) 2021 2020 2019 Basic: Net income $ 176,691 $ 132,217 $ 142,943 Average common shares outstanding 31,936 32,334 34,179 Basic net income per common share $ 5.53 $ 4.09 $ 4.18 Diluted: Net income $ 176,691 $ 132,217 $ 142,943 Average common shares outstanding 31,936 32,334 34,179 Adjustment for common share equivalents 67 28 32 Average common shares outstanding-diluted 32,003 32,362 34,211 Diluted net income per common share $ 5.52 $ 4.09 $ 4.18 Anti-dilutive shares 3 26 2 Note 16 – Related Party Transactions The EagleBank Foundation, a 501(c)(3) non-profit, seeks to improve the well being of our community by providing financial support to local charitable organizations that help foster and strengthen vibrant, healthy, cultural and sustainable communities. The Company paid $ 134 thousand, $ 185 thousand, and $ 182 thousand to the EagleBank Foundation for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Certain directors and executive officers of the Company and the Bank and certain affiliated entities of such directors and executive officers have had loan transactions with the Company. Such loans were made in the ordinary course of business on substantially the same terms, including interest rates and collateral, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with outsiders. Please see further detail regarding Related Party Loans in Note 4 "Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses" and Related Party Deposits in Note 11 "Deposits." Note 17 – Stock-Based Compensation The Company maintains the 2021 Stock Plan ("2021 Plan"), the 2016 Stock Plan (“2016 Plan”), the 2006 Stock Plan (“2006 Plan”), the 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("2016 ESPP") and the 2011 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“2011 ESPP”). In connection with the acquisition of Virginia Heritage, the Company assumed the Virginia Heritage 2006 Stock Option Plan and the 2010 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “Virginia Heritage Plans”). No additional options may be granted under the 2016 Plan, 2006 Plan or the Virginia Heritage Plans. The Company adopted the 2021 Plan upon approval by the shareholders at the 2021 Annual Meeting held on May 20, 2021. The 2021 Plan provides directors and selected employees of the Bank, the Company and their affiliates with the opportunity to acquire shares of stock, through awards of options, time vested restricted stock, performance-based restricted stock and stock appreciation rights. Under the 2021 Plan, 1,300,000 shares of common stock were initially reserved for issuance. For awards that are service based, compensation expense is being recognized over the service (vesting) period based on fair value, which for stock option grants is computed using the Black-Scholes model. For restricted stock awards granted under the 2021 plan, fair value is based on the Company’s closing price on the date of grant. For awards that are performance-based, compensation expense is recorded based on the probability of achievement of the goals underlying the grant at target. 116 Table of Contents In February 2021, the Company awarded 178,001 shares of time vested restricted stock to senior officers, directors, and certain employees. The shares vest in three substantially equal installments beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant. In February 2021, the Company awarded senior officers a targeted number of 47,959 performance vested restricted stock units (“PRSUs”). The vesting of PRSUs is 100 % after three years with payouts based on threshold, target or maximum average performance targets over a three year period. There are two performance metrics: 1) total shareholder's return; and 2) return on average assets. In February 2021, the 2018 performance award vested and 3,605 incremental shares were awarded. In April 2021, the Company awarded 921 shares of time vested restricted stock to an employee. The shares vest in three substantially equal installments beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant. In August 2021, the Company awarded 250 shares of time vested restricted stock to an employee. The shares vest in three substantially equal installments beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant. In December 2021, the Company awarded 452 shares of time vested restricted stock to an employee. The shares vest in three substantially equal installments beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant. The Company has unvested restricted stock awards and PRSU grants of 419,360 shares at December 31, 2021. Unrecognized stock based compensation expense related to restricted stock awards and PRSU grants totaled $ 10.5 million at December 31, 2021. At such date, the weighted-average period over which this unrecognized expense was expected to be recognized was 1.8 years. The following tables summarize the unvested restricted stock awards at December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019.

The information excludes restricted stock units and awards. 117 Table of Contents Years Ended December 31, 2021 2020 2019 Shares Weighted- Average Exercise Price Shares Weighted- Average Exercise Price Shares Weighted- Average Exercise Price Beginning balance 5,789 $ 36.96 6,589 $ 19.99 34,123 $ 14.69 Issued — — 2,500 47.95 — — Exercised — — ( 3,300 ) 11.40 ( 26,784 ) 12.42 Forfeited — — — — ( 750 ) 49.08 Ending balance 5,789 $ 36.96 5,789 $ 36.96 6,589 $ 19.99 Exercisable end of year 4,122 $ 32.51 3,289 $ 28.60 6,214 $ 18.18 There were no grants of stock options during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2019. For 2020, there was one grant to an executive officer for 2,500 incentive stock options in January 2020, which has a ten-year term and vests in three equal installments beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant. The fair value of each stock option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the assumptions shown in the table below used for the grants during 2020. Year Ended December 31, 2020 Expected volatility 42.3 % Weighted-Average volatility 42.3 % Expected dividends — Expected term (in years) 6.5 Risk-free rate 1.67 % Weighted-average fair value (grant date) $ 21.06 The expected lives were based on the "simplified" method allowed by ASC 718 "Compensation," whereby the expected term is equal to the midpoint between the vesting date and the end of the contractual term of the award. The total intrinsic value of outstanding stock options was $ 123 thousand and $ 54 thousand, respectively, at December 31, 2021 and 2020. The total fair value of stock options vested was $ 18 thousand, $ 6 thousand and $ 35 thousand, for 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to stock options totaled $ 18 thousand at December 31, 2021. At such date, the weighted-average period over which this unrecognized expense was expected to be recognized was 1.02 years. Cash proceeds, tax benefits and intrinsic value related to total stock options exercised is as follows: Years Ended December 31, (dollars in thousands) 2021 2020 2019 Proceeds from stock options exercised $ — $ 63 $ 332 Tax benefits realized from stock compensation — 24 50 Intrinsic value of stock options exercised — 91 1,022 Approved by shareholders in May 2021, the 2021 ESPP reserved 200,000 shares of common stock for issuance to employees. Whole shares are sold to participants in the plan at 85 % of the lower of the stock price at the beginning or end of each quarterly offering period. The 2021 ESPP is available to all eligible employees who have completed at least one year of continuous employment, work at least 20 hours per week and at least five months a year. Participants may contribute a minimum of $ 10 per pay period to a maximum of $ 25,000 annually (not to exceed more than 10 % of compensation per pay period). At December 31, 2021, the 2021 ESPP had 193,665 shares reserved for issuance. 118 Table of Contents Included in salaries and employee benefits in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income, the Company recognized $ 7.8 million, $ 5.3 million and $ 7.7 million in stock-based compensation expense for 2021, 2020 and 2019, respectively. In addition, during 2019 the Company accrued $ 4.5 million in stock-based compensation costs associated with the retirement of our former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized ratably over the requisite service period for all awards. Note 18 – Employee Benefit Plans The Company has a qualified 401(k) Plan which covers all employees who have reached the age of 21 and have completed at least one month of service as defined by the Plan. The Company makes contributions to the Plan based on a matching formula, which is reviewed annually. For the years 2021, 2020, and 2019, the Company recognized $ 1.8 million, $ 1.5 million, and $ 1.3 million in expense associated with this benefit, respectively. These amounts are included in salaries and employee benefits in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. Note 19 – Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan The Bank has entered into Supplemental Executive Retirement and Death Benefit Agreements (the “SERP Agreements”) with certain of the Bank’s executive officers, which upon the executive’s retirement, will provide for a stated monthly payment for such executive’s lifetime subject to certain death benefits described below. The retirement benefit is computed as a percentage of each executive’s projected average base salary over the five years preceding retirement, assuming retirement at age 67 . The SERP Agreements provide that (a) the benefits vest ratably over six years of service to the Bank, with the executive receiving credit for years of service prior to entering into the SERP Agreement, (b) death, disability and change-in-control shall result in immediate vesting and (c) the monthly amount will be reduced if retirement occurs earlier than age 67 for any reason other than death, disability or change-in-control. The SERP Agreements further provide for a death benefit in the event the retired executive dies prior to receiving 180 monthly installments, paid either in a lump sum payment or continued monthly installment payments, such that the executive’s beneficiary has received payment(s) sufficient to equate to a cumulative 180 monthly installments. The SERP Agreements are unfunded arrangements maintained primarily to provide supplemental retirement benefits and comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. The Bank financed the retirement benefits by purchasing fixed annuity contracts with four insurance carriers in 2013 totaling $ 11.4 million, and two insurance carriers in 2019 totaling $ 2.6 million. These annuity contracts have been designed to provide a future source of funds for the lifetime retirement benefits of the SERP Agreements. The primary impetus for utilizing fixed annuities is a substantial savings in compensation expenses for the Bank as opposed to a traditional SERP Agreement. The cash surrender value of the annuity contracts was $ 14.2 million and $ 14.5 million at December 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and was included in other assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheet. For the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020, and 2019 the Company recorded benefit expense accruals of $ 338 thousand, $ 428 thousand, and $ 404 thousand, respectively, for this post retirement benefit. Upon death of a named executive, the annuity contract related to such executive terminates. The Bank has purchased additional bank owned life insurance contracts, which would effectively finance payments (up to a 15 year certain amount) to the executives’ named beneficiaries. Note 20 – Financial Instruments with Off-Balance Sheet Risk Various commitments to extend credit are made in the normal course of banking business. Letters of credit are also issued for the benefit of customers. These commitments are subject to loan underwriting standards and geographic boundaries consistent with the Company’s loans outstanding. 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 some of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Loan commitments outstanding and lines and letters of credit at December 31, 2021 and 2020 are as follows: 119 Table of Contents (dollars in thousands) 2021 2020 Unfunded loan commitments $ 1,819,578 $ 2,175,271 Unfunded lines of credit 108,209 107,683 Letters of credit 112,509 70,779 Total $ 2,040,296 $ 2,353,733 Because most of the Company’s business activity is with customers located in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, a geographic concentration of credit risk exists within the loan portfolio, the performance of which will be influenced by the economy of the region. As of December 31, 2021, the total reserve for unfunded commitments was $ 4.4 million as compared to $ 5.5 million at December 31, 2020, and is accounted for as a liability on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. See Note 1 for more information on the accounting policy for the allowance for unfunded commitments. The Bank maintains a reserve for the potential repurchase of residential mortgage loans, which amounted to $ 125 thousand at December 31, 2021 and $ 205 thousand at December 31, 2020. These amounts are included in other liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Additions to the reserve are a component of other expenses in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income. The reserve is available to absorb losses on the repurchase of loans sold related to document and other fraud, early payment default and early payoff. Through December 31, 2021, no reserve charges have occurred related to fraud. The Company enters into interest rate lock commitments, which are commitments to originate loans whereby the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding and the customers have locked into that interest rate. The residential mortgage division either locks in the loan and rate with an investor and commits to deliver the loan if settlement occurs under best efforts or commits to deliver the locked loan in a binding mandatory delivery program with an investor. Certain loans under rate lock commitments are covered under forward sales contracts of mortgage backed securities as a hedge of any interest rate risk. Forward sales contracts of mortgage backed securities are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in noninterest income. Interest rate lock commitments and commitments to deliver loans to investors are considered derivatives. The market value of interest rate lock commitments and best efforts and mandatory contracts are not readily ascertainable with precision because they are not actively traded in stand-alone markets. The Company determines the fair value of rate lock commitments and delivery contracts by measuring the fair value of the underlying asset, which is impacted by current interest rates while taking into consideration the probability that the rate lock commitments will close or will be funded. These transactions are further detailed in Note 9 "Mortgage Banking Derivatives". Note 21 – Commitments and Contingent Liabilities The Company has various financial obligations, including contractual obligations and commitments that may require future cash payments. Except for its loan commitments, as shown in Note 20 "Financial Instruments With Off Balance Sheet Risk" the following table shows details on these fixed and determinable obligations as of December 31, 2021 in the time period indicated. (dollars in thousands) Within One Year One to Three Years Three to Five Years Over Five Years Total Deposits without a stated maturity (1) $ 9,252,458 $ — $ — $ — $ 9,252,458 Time deposits (1) 478,056 227,188 20,708 3,130 729,082 Borrowed funds (2) 323,918 69,670 — — 393,588 Operating lease obligations 7,231 13,330 9,517 8,407 38,485 Outside data processing (3) 4,325 5,225 — — 9,550 George Mason sponsorship (4) 675 1,350 1,388 6,075 9,488 D.C.

(3) The Bank has outstanding obligations under its current core data processing contract that expire in June 2024 and one other vendor arrangement that relates to network infrastructure and data center services that expires in December 2022. (4) The Bank has the option of terminating the George Mason agreement at the end of contract years 10 and 15 (that is, effective June 30, 2025 or June 30, 2030). Should the Bank elect to exercise its right to terminate the George Mason contract, contractual obligations would decrease $ 3.5 million and $ 3.6 million for the first option period (years 11 - 15 ) and the second option period (years 16 - 20 ), respectively. (5) Marketing sponsorship agreement with D.C. United. (6) LIHTC expected payments for unfunded affordable housing commitments. (7) As disclosed in the 8-K dated January 25, 2021, pursuant to the executed stipulation of settlement of the demand litigation, the Company has agreed to invest an additional $ 2.0 million incremental spend above 2020 levels by the end of 2023 to enhance its corporate governance, and risk and compliance controls and infrastructure. An accrual is recorded when it is both (a) probable that a loss has occurred and (b) the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. We evaluate, on a quarterly basis, developments in legal proceedings with respect to accruals, as well as the estimated range of possible losses. From time to time, the Company and its subsidiaries are involved in various legal proceedings incidental to their business in the ordinary course, including matters in which damages in various amounts are claimed. Based on information currently available, the Company does not believe that the liabilities (if any) resulting from such legal proceedings will have a material effect on the financial position or liquidity of the Company. However, in light of the inherent uncertainties involved in such matters, ongoing legal expenses or an adverse outcome in one or more of these matters could materially and adversely affect the Company's financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period, as well as its reputation. Certain legal proceedings involving us are described below. On July 24, 2019, a putative class action lawsuit was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the "SDNY") against the Company, its current and former President and Chief Executive Officer and its current and former Chief Financial Officer, on behalf of persons similarly situated, who purchased or otherwise acquired Company securities between March 2, 2015 and July 17, 2019. On November 7, 2019, the court appointed a lead plaintiff and lead counsel in that matter, and on January 21, 2020, the lead plaintiff filed an amended complaint on behalf of the same class against the same defendants as well as the Company's former General Counsel. The plaintiff alleges that certain of the Company's 10-K reports and other public statements and disclosures contained materially false or misleading statements about, among other things, the effectiveness of its internal controls and related party loans, in violation of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 thereunder and Section 20 (a) of that act, resulting in injury to the purported class members as a result of the decline in the value of the Company's common stock following the disclosure of increased legal expenses associated with certain government investigations involving the Company. On December 24, 2020, by stipulation of the parties, the SDNY stayed the putative class action lawsuit, pending a non-binding mediation. Following such mediation, the lead plaintiff, on behalf of the class, the Company and each of the other defendants continued a settlement dialogue and reached an agreement to settle the putative class action lawsuit, involving a total payment by the Company of $ 7.5 million in exchange for the release of all of the defendants from all alleged claims in the class action suit, without any admission or concession of wrongdoing by the Company or the other defendants. On February 10, 2022, the SDNY approved the settlement agreement. The Company expects that the full amount of a final settlement will be paid by the Company’s insurance carriers under applicable insurance policies. As previously disclosed in the Company's Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2020, on January 25, 2021, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with respect to a previously disclosed shareholder demand letter, covering substantially the same subject matters as the civil securities class action litigation described above. The letter demanded that the Board undertake an investigation into the Board’s and management’s alleged violations of law and alleged breaches of fiduciary duties, and take appropriate actions following such investigation. On October 4, 2021, the D.C. Superior Court approved the settlement and dismissed the derivative action complaint. The Company has already begun executing on the terms of the settlement, including the payment of agreed-upon fees and expenses (which were fully covered by the Company’s D&O insurance policy). The Company has received various document requests and subpoenas from securities and banking regulators and U.S. Attorney’s offices in connection with investigations, which the Company believes relate to the Company's identification, classification and disclosure of related party transactions; the retirement of certain former officers and directors; and the relationship of the Company and certain of its former officers and directors with a local public official, among other things. The Company is cooperating with these investigations. There have been no regulatory restrictions placed on the Company's ability to fully engage in its banking business as presently conducted as a result of these ongoing investigations. We are, however, unable to predict the duration, scope or outcome of these investigations. In connection with the previously disclosed investigation by the SEC, the Company’s discussions with the Staff have progressed, and the Company continues to engage with the Staff, including senior Staff members, about a potential resolution 121 Table of Contents or settlement of the Staff’s investigation with respect to the Company. The Company is hopeful that these discussions will lead to a timely resolution of the investigation as it relates to the Company and any current employees and directors on a mutually agreeable basis, but there can be no assurance that will be the case. There also can be no assurance that this would result in resolution of any charges against former employees or directors, given the Staff’s ongoing review of the factual record. Any agreements reached by the Company with the Staff would be subject to approval by the SEC, and there can be no assurance that it would be approved. We are unable to predict the outcome of the investigation or these discussions or whether any potential resolution would have a material impact on the Company. In connection with the previously disclosed investigation by the Federal Reserve Board (the “Board”), the Company is continuing discussions with the Board Staff, now including senior enforcement Staff, about a potential resolution or settlement of the Board’s investigation with respect to the Company. The Company is hopeful that these discussions will lead to a timely resolution of the investigation as it relates to the Company on a mutually agreeable basis, but there can be no assurance that will be the case. Any agreements reached by the Company with the Staff would be subject to approval by senior Board officials, and there can be no assurance that it would be approved. We are unable to predict the outcome of the investigation or these discussions or whether any potential resolution would have a material impact on the Company. With respect to the other previously disclosed investigations, we are unable to predict their duration, scope or outcome. As previously disclosed, the Company maintains director and officer insurance policies (“D&O Insurance Policies”) that provide coverage for the legal defense costs related to certain of the above-described investigations and litigations. When claims are covered by D&O Insurance Policies, the Company records a corresponding receivable against the incurred legal defense cost expense subject to coverage under the D&O Insurance Policies and then eliminates the receivable and expense when the claim is paid. Since the commencement of the above-described matters in 2018 through December 31, 2021, the Company’s D&O Insurance carriers have advanced a number of defense cost claims to the Company and its current and former directors and officers. Subject to any new developments to the above-described investigations and litigations that may occur over the next few months, the Company currently believes there is a possibility that the applicable D&O Insurance Policies may be exhausted as early as the first quarter of 2022. Once the D&O Insurance Policies are exhausted, the Company will be responsible for paying the defense costs associated with the above-described investigations and litigations for itself and on behalf of any current and former Officers and Directors entitled to indemnification from the Company. The Company cannot predict with any certainty the amount of defense costs that the Company may incur in the future in connection with currently ongoing and any potential future investigations and legal proceedings, as they are dependent on various factors, many of which are outside of the Company’s control. Estimating an amount or range of possible losses resulting from litigation, government actions and other legal proceedings is inherently difficult and requires an extensive degree of judgment, particularly where the matters involve indeterminate claims for monetary damages, may involve fines, penalties, or damages that are discretionary in amount, involve a large number of claimants or significant discretion by regulatory authorities, represent a change in regulatory policy or interpretation, present novel legal theories, are in the early stages of the proceedings, are subject to appeal or could result in a change in business practices. In addition, because most legal proceedings are resolved over extended periods of time, potential losses are subject to change due to, among other things, new developments, changes in legal strategy, the outcome of intermediate procedural and substantive rulings and other parties’ settlement posture and their evaluation of the strength or weakness of their case against us. For these reasons, we are currently unable to predict the ultimate timing or outcome of, or reasonably estimate the possible losses resulting from, the matters described above that remain ongoing. Note 22 – Regulatory Matters The Company and Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weighting, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and Bank to maintain amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of Total capital, Tier 1 capital and CET1 (as defined in the regulations) to risk-weighted assets (as defined), and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average assets (as defined), referred to as the Leverage Ratio. Management believes, as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, that the Company and Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject. 122 Table of Contents The actual capital amounts and ratios for the Company and Bank as of December 31, 2021 and 2020 are presented in the table below: Company Bank Minimum Required For Capital Adequacy Purposes To Be Well Capitalized Under Prompt Corrective Action Regulations * (dollars in thousands) Actual Amount Ratio Actual Amount Ratio As of December 31, 2021 CET1 capital (to risk weighted assets) $ 1,269,329 15.02 % $ 1,261,518 15.01 % 7.000 % 6.5 % Total capital (to risk weighted assets) 1,365,117 16.15 % 1,329,306 15.82 % 10.500 % 10.0 % Tier 1 capital (to risk weighted assets) 1,269,329 15.02 % 1,261,518 15.01 % 8.500 % 8.0 % Tier 1 capital (to average assets) 1,269,329 10.19 % 1,261,518 10.16 % 4.000 % 5.0 % As of December 31, 2020 CET1 capital (to risk weighted assets) $ 1,137,896 13.49 % $ 1,244,028 14.90 % 7.000 % 6.5 % Total capital (to risk weighted assets) 1,438,224 17.04 % 1,338,356 16.03 % 10.500 % 10.0 % Tier 1 capital (to risk weighted assets) 1,137,896 13.49 % 1,244,028 14.90 % 8.500 % 8.0 % Tier 1 capital (to average assets) 1,137,896 10.31 % 1,244,028 11.29 % 4.000 % 5.0 % * Applies to Bank only Federal bank and holding company regulations, as well as Maryland law, impose certain restrictions on capital distributions, including dividend payments and share repurchases by the Bank, as well as restricting extensions of credit and transfers of assets between the Bank and the Company. At December 31, 2021, the Bank could pay dividends to the parent to the extent of its earnings so long as it maintained capital ratios above the required minimums and the capital conservation buffer. As a result the Company may be restricted in paying dividends. 123 Table of Contents Note 23 – Other Comprehensive Income The following table presents the components of other comprehensive income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019.

In estimating fair value, the Company utilizes valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach and/or the cost approach. Such valuation techniques are consistently applied. Inputs to valuation techniques include the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs. The fair value hierarchy is as follows: Level 1 Quoted prices in active exchange markets for identical assets or liabilities; also includes certain U.S. Treasury and other U.S. Government and agency securities actively traded in over-the-counter markets. Level 2 Observable inputs other than Level 1 including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in less active markets, or other observable inputs that can be corroborated by observable market data; also includes derivative contracts whose value is determined using a pricing model with observable market inputs or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes certain U.S. Government and agency securities, corporate debt securities, derivative instruments, and residential mortgage loans held for sale. Level 3 Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity for financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation; also includes observable inputs for single dealer nonbinding quotes not corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes certain private equity investments, retained interests from securitizations, and certain collateralized debt obligations. 126 Table of Contents Assets and Liabilities Recorded at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis The table below presents the recorded amount of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2021 and 2020: (dollars in thousands) Quoted Prices (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Other Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Total (Fair Value) December 31, 2021 Assets: Investment securities available-for-sale: U.S. Treasury Bond $ — $ 49,458 $ — $ 49,458 U.

Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices, if available. If quoted prices are not available, fair value is measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security’s credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such as credit loss assumptions. Level 1 securities include those traded on an active exchange such as the New York Stock Exchange, and money market funds. Level 2 securities include U.S. agency debt securities, mortgage backed securities issued by Government Sponsored Entities (“GSE’s”), U.S. Treasury securities that are traded by dealers or brokers in active over-the-counter markets, and municipal bonds. Securities classified as Level 3 include securities in less liquid markets, the carrying amounts approximate the fair value. Loans held for sale : The Company has elected to carry loans held for sale at fair value. This election reduces certain timing differences in the Consolidated Statement of Income and better aligns with the management of the portfolio from a business perspective. Fair value is derived from secondary market quotations for similar instruments. Gains and losses on sales of residential mortgage loans are recorded as a component of noninterest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Gains and losses on sales of multifamily FHA securities are recorded as a component of noninterest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income. As such, the Company classifies loans subjected to fair value adjustments as Level 2 valuation. The following table summarizes the difference between the aggregate fair value and the aggregate unpaid principal balance for loans held for sale measured at fair value as of December 31, 2021 and 2020. December 31, 2021 (dollars in thousands) Fair Value Aggregate Unpaid Principal Balance Difference Loans held for sale $ 47,218 $ 46,623 $ 595 December 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands) Fair Value Aggregate Unpaid Principal Balance Difference Loans held for sale $ 88,205 $ 86,551 $ 1,654 No residential mortgage loans held for sale were 90 or more days past due or on nonaccrual status as of December 31, 2021 or December 31, 2020. Interest rate swap derivatives: These derivative instruments consist of interest rate swap agreements, which are accounted for as cash flow hedges under ASC 815. The Company’s derivative position is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy and is valued using models generally accepted in the financial services industry and that use actively quoted or observable market input values from external market data providers and/or non-binding broker-dealer quotations. The fair value of the derivatives is determined using discounted cash flow models. These models’ key assumptions include the contractual terms of the respective contract along with significant observable inputs, including interest rates, yield curves, nonperformance risk and volatility. Derivative contracts are executed with a Credit Support Annex, which is a bilateral agreement that requires collateral postings when the market value exceeds certain threshold limits. These agreements protect the interests of the Company and its counterparties should either party suffer credit rating deterioration. Credit risk participation agreements : The Company enters into credit risk participation agreements (“RPAs”) with institutional counterparties, under which the Company assumes its pro-rata share of the credit exposure associated with a borrower’s performance related to interest rate derivative contracts. The fair value of RPAs is calculated by determining the total expected asset or liability exposure of the derivatives to the borrowers and applying the borrowers’ credit spread to that exposure. Total expected exposure incorporates both the current and potential future exposure of the derivatives, derived from using observable inputs, such as yield curves and volatilities. Accordingly, RPAs fall within Level 2. 128 Table of Contents Interest rate caps: The Company entered into an interest rate cap agreement (“cap”) with an institutional counterparty, under which the Company will receive cash if and when market rates exceed the cap’s strike rate. The fair value of the cap is calculated by determining the total expected asset or liability exposure of the derivatives. Total expected exposure incorporates both the current and potential future exposure of the derivative, derived from using observable inputs, such as yield curves and volatilities. Accordingly, the cap falls within Level 2. The following is a reconciliation of activity for assets and liabilities measured at fair value based on Significant Other Unobservable Inputs (Level 3): (dollars in thousands) Investment Securities Mortgage Banking Derivatives Total Assets: Beginning balance at January 1, 2021 $ 1,500 $ 5,213 $ 6,713 Realized loss included in earnings — ( 4,577 ) ( 4,577 ) Reclass Level 2 to 3 12,000 — $ 12,000 Principal redemption $ ( 1,500 ) $ — $ ( 1,500 ) Ending balance at December 31, 2021 $ 12,000 $ 636 $ 12,636 Liabilities: Beginning balance at January 1, 2021 $ — $ — $ — Realized gain included in earnings — — — Ending balance at December 31, 2021 $ — $ — $ — (dollars in thousands) Investment Securities Mortgage Banking Derivatives Total Assets: Beginning balance at January 1, 2020 $ 10,931 $ 280 $ 11,211 Realized gain included in earnings — 4,933 $ 4,933 Migrated to Level 2 valuation ( 9,233 ) ( 9,233 ) Reclass fair value asset to cost method ( 198 ) — $ ( 198 ) Ending balance at December 31, 2020 $ 1,500 $ 5,213 $ 6,713 Liabilities: Beginning balance at January 1, 2020 $ — $ 66 $ 66 Realized loss included in earnings — ( 66 ) ( 66 ) Ending balance at December 31, 2020 $ — $ — $ — The other debt securities classified as Level 3 consist of two corporate bonds, one of a global banking company and one of a local banking company at December 31, 2021 and one corporate bond of a local banking company at December 31, 2020. Form Level 3 assets measured at fair value on a recurring or nonrecurring basis as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurements were as follows: December 31, 2021 December 31, 2020 (dollars in thousands) Valuation Technique Description Range Weighted Average (1) Fair Value Weighted Average (1) Fair Value Mortgage banking derivatives Pricing Model Pull Through Rate 86 % - 87 % 86.40 % $ 636 76.25 % $ 5,213 (1) Unobservable inputs for mortgage banking derivatives were weighted by loan amount. 129 Table of Contents Mortgage banking derivatives for loans settled on a mandatory basis: The Company relied on a third-party pricing service to value its mortgage banking derivative financial assets and liabilities, which the Company classifies as a Level 3 valuation. The external valuation model to estimate the fair value of its interest rate lock commitments to originate residential mortgage loans held for sale includes grouping the interest rate lock commitments by interest rate and terms, applying an estimated pull-through rate based on historical experience, and then multiplying by quoted investor prices determined to be reasonably applicable to the loan commitment groups based on interest rate, terms, and rate lock expiration dates of the loan commitment groups. The Company also relies on an external valuation model to estimate the fair value of its forward commitments to sell residential mortgage loans (i.e., an estimate of what the Company would receive or pay to terminate the forward delivery contract based on market prices for similar financial instruments), which includes matching specific terms and maturities of the forward commitments against applicable investor pricing. Mortgage banking derivative for loans settled best efforts basis: The significant unobservable input (Level 3) used in the fair value measurement of the Company's interest rate lock commitments is the pull through ratio, which represents the percentage of loans currently in a lock position which management estimates will ultimately close. An increase in the pull through ratio (i.e. higher percentage of loans are estimated to close) will increase the gain or loss. The pull through ratio is largely dependent on the loan processing stage that a loan is currently in. The pull through rate is computed by the Company's secondary marketing consultant using historical data and the ratio is periodically reviewed by the Company for reasonableness. Assets and Liabilities Recorded at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis The Company measures certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and the following is a general description of the methods used to value such assets. Other real estate owned : Other real estate owned is initially recorded at fair value less estimated selling costs. Fair value is based upon independent market prices, appraised values of the collateral or management’s estimation of the value of the collateral, which the Company classifies as a Level 3 valuation. Assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis are included in the table below: (dollars in thousands) Quoted Prices (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Other Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Total (Fair Value) December 31, 2021 Individually assessed loans: Commercial $ — $ — $ 8,121 $ 8,121 Income producing - commercial real estate — — 17,415 17,415 Owner occupied - commercial real estate — — 42 42 Real estate mortgage - residential — — 1,779 1,779 Construction - commercial and residential — — 3,093 3,093 Home equity — — 366 366 PPP loans — — 1,365 1,365 Other real estate owned — — 1,635 1,635 Total assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of December 31, 2021 $ — $ — $ 33,816 $ 33,816 130 Table of Contents (dollars in thousands) Quoted Prices (Level 1) Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) Significant Other Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) Total (Fair Value) December 31, 2020 Individually assessed loans: Commercial $ — $ — $ 9,285 $ 9,285 Income producing - commercial real estate — — 21,638 21,638 Owner occupied - commercial real estate — — 21,930 21,930 Real estate mortgage - residential — — 2,602 2,602 Construction - commercial and residential — — 103 103 Home equity — — 416 416 Other real estate owned — — 4,987 4,987 Total assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of December 31, 2020 $ — $ — $ 60,961 $ 60,961 Loans The fair value of individually assessed loans is estimated using one of several methods, including the collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value, and discounted cash flows. Those individually assessed loans not requiring a specific allowance represent loans for which the fair value of expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investment in such loans. At December 31, 2021, substantially all of the Company’s individually assessed loans were evaluated based upon the fair value of the collateral. In accordance with ASC 820, individually assessed loans where an allowance is established based on the fair value of collateral require classification in the fair value hierarchy. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the loan as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the loan as nonrecurring Level 3. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company discloses fair value information about financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate the value, whether or not such financial instruments are recognized on the balance sheet. Fair value is the amount at which a financial instrument could be exchanged in a current transaction between willing parties, other than in a forced sale or liquidation, and is best evidenced by quoted market price, if one exists. Quoted market prices, if available, are shown as estimates of fair value. Because no quoted market prices exist for a portion of the Company’s financial instruments, the fair value of such instruments has been derived based on management’s assumptions with respect to future economic conditions, the amount and timing of future cash flows and estimated discount rates. Different assumptions could significantly affect these estimates. Accordingly, the net realizable value could be materially different from the estimates presented below.
