CORPORATION NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) Note 1 – Basis of Presentation The financial information is presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and general practice for financial institutions in the United States of America (“GAAP”). First United Corporation has prepared these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information, rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods, and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Operating results for the nine- and three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or for any future interim period. These consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in First United Corporation’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. In preparing financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of financial statements. In addition, these estimates and assumptions affect revenues and expenses in the financial statements and, as such, actual results could differ from those estimates. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform with current year classifications. These reclassifications did not have a material impact on the Corporation’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (all of which are of a normal recurring nature) that are necessary for a fair statement are reflected in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of First United Corporation, First United Bank & Trust (the “Bank”), First United Statutory Trust I, First United Statutory Trust II, OakFirst Loan Center, LLC, OakFirst Loan Center, Inc., First OREO Trust and FUBT OREO I, LLC. All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated. As used in these notes, the terms “the Corporation” “we”, “us”, and “our” refer to First United Corporation and, unless the context clearly requires otherwise, its consolidated subsidiaries. The Corporation has evaluated events and transactions occurring subsequent to the statement of financial condition date of September 30, 2024 and through the date these consolidated financial statements were issued, for items of potential recognition or disclosure. Newly Adopted Pronouncements in 2024 In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” The amendments in ASU 2020-04 provide optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for or recognizing the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting. The amendments provide optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to loan and lease agreements, derivative contracts, and other transactions affected by the anticipated transition away from the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) toward new interest rate benchmarks. Modified contracts that meet certain scope guidance are eligible for relief from these modification accounting requirements in GAAP. The optional guidance generally allows for the modified contract to be accounted for as a continuation of the existing contract and does not require contract remeasurement at the modification date or reassessment of a previous accounting determination. The amendments in ASU 2020-04 are effective for all entities between March 12, 2020 and December 31, 2022. In December 2022, FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06: “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848.” The amendments in ASU 2020-06 defer the sunset date for applying the reference rate reform relief by two years to December 31, 2024, after which entities will no longer be permitted to apply the relief in Topic 848. ​ 11 Table of Contents The Corporation had no financial instruments tied to LIBOR at September 30, 2024. The implementation of ASU 2020-04 did not have a material impact on our financial statements. ​ Note 2 – Accounting Statements Issued but Not Yet Adopted In November 2023, FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvement to Reportable Segment Disclosures.” ASU 2023-07 expands segment disclosure requirements for public entities to require disclosure of significant segment expense and other segment items on an annual and interim basis and to provide in interim periods all disclosures about a reportable segment’s profit or loss and assets that are currently required annually. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. ASU 2023-07 is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements. ​ In December 2023, FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures.” ASU 2023-09 requires public business entities to disclose in their rate reconciliation table additional categories of information about Federal, state, and foreign income taxes and to provide more details about the reconciling items in some categories if items meet a quantitative threshold. ASU 2023-09 also requires all entities to disclose income taxes paid, net of refunds, disaggregated by Federal, state, and foreign taxes for annual periods and to disaggregate the information by jurisdiction based on a quantitative threshold, among other things. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. ASU 2023-09 is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements. ​ In March 2024, FASB issued ASU No. 2024-01, “Compensation- Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards.” ASU 2024-01 provides an illustrative example that includes four fact patterns to demonstrate how an entity should apply the scope guidance in paragraph 718-10-15-3 to determine whether a profits interest award should be accounted for in accordance with Topic 718. ASU 2024-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. ASU 2024-01 is not expected to have a significant impact on our financial statements. ​ Note 3 – Earnings Per Common Share Basic earnings per common share is derived by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period and does not include the effect of any potentially dilutive common stock equivalents. Diluted earnings per share is derived by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding, adjusted for the dilutive effect of outstanding common stock equivalents, such as restricted stock units (“RSUs”). There were no anti-dilutive shares outstanding at September 30, 2024 or 2023. ​ 12 Table of Contents The following table sets forth the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per common share for

30,146 ​ $ 184,415 ​ $ 45 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ The Corporation utilizes FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 326 to evaluate its available-for-sale (“AFS”) and held-to-maturity (“HTM”) debt security portfolio for expected credit losses. For AFS debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Corporation first assesses whether it intends to sell, or whether it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell, the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either criteria is met, then the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income. For AFS debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the Corporation evaluates whether any decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, then 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 14 Table of Contents present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, then a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses (“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. ​ Changes in the ACL are recorded as a provision for (or reversal of) credit losses. Losses are charged against the ACL when management believes the uncollectibility of an AFS security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met. Any impairment not recorded through an allowance for credit loss is recognized in other comprehensive income as a non-credit-related impairment. ​ The Corporation has made the policy election to exclude accrued interest from the amortized cost basis of AFS debt securities and report accrued interest separately in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. AFS debt securities are placed on non-accrual 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 non-accrual status. Accordingly, we do not recognize an allowance for credit loss against accrued interest receivable. ​ The Corporation separately evaluates its HTM investment securities for any credit losses. The Corporation pools similar securities and calculates expected credit losses through an estimate based on a security’s credit rating, which is recognized as part of the ACL for HTM securities and is included in the balance of HTM securities held to maturity on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. If the Corporation determines that a security indicates evidence of deteriorated credit quality, then the security is individually evaluated and a discounted cash flow analysis is performed and compared to the amortized cost basis. ​ The Corporation recorded ACL of approximately $ 59,000 as of September 30, 2024 and $ 45,000 as of December 31, 2023, both related to one non-rated municipal bond in its HTM security portfolio. ​ ​ 15 Table of Contents The following tables show the Corporation’s investment securities with gross unrealized and unrecognized losses and fair values at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, aggregated by investment category and the length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Less than 12 months ​ 12 months or more (in thousands) Fair Value Unrealized Losses Number of Investments Fair Value Unrealized Losses Number of Investments September 30, 2024 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Available for Sale: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ U.S. government agencies ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ — ​ $ 6,239 ​ $ 761 ​ 2 Residential mortgage-backed agencies ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 19,643 ​ ​ 3,559 ​ 3 Commercial mortgage-backed agencies ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 28,353 ​ ​ 7,368 ​ 8 Collateralized mortgage obligations ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 15,680 ​ ​ 2,853 ​ 9 Obligations of states and political subdivisions ​ ​ 243 ​ ​ 2 ​ 1 ​ ​ 3,959 ​ ​ 89 ​ 3 Corporate bonds ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 740 ​ ​ 260 ​ 1 Collateralized debt obligations ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 14,779 ​ ​ 3,879 ​ 9 Total available for sale ​ $ 243 ​ $ 2 ​ 1 ​ $ 89,393 ​ $ 18,769 ​ 35 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Less than 12 months ​ 12 months or more (in thousands) Fair Value Unrecognized Losses Number of Investments Fair Value Unrecognized Losses Number of Investments September 30, 2024 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Held to Maturity: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ U.S. government agencies ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ — ​ $ 59,567 ​ $ 8,662 ​ 9 Residential mortgage-backed agencies ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 21,549 ​ ​ 2,455 ​ 35 Commercial mortgage-backed agencies ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 16,169 ​ ​ 5,008 ​ 2 Collateralized mortgage obligations ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 41,998 ​ ​ 8,334 ​ 8 Obligations of states and political subdivisions ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 2,277 ​ ​ 603 ​ 1 Total held to maturity ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ — ​ $ 141,560 ​ $ 25,062 ​ 55 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 16 Table of Contents ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Less than 12 months ​ 12 months or more (in thousands) Fair Value Unrealized Losses Number of Investments Fair Value Unrealized Losses Number of Investments December 31, 2023 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Available for Sale: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ U.S. government agencies ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ — ​ $ 6,034 ​ $ 966 ​ 2 Residential mortgage-backed agencies ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 20,563 ​ ​ 4,218 ​ 3 Commercial mortgage-backed agencies ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 28,417 ​ ​ 7,841 ​ 8 Collateralized mortgage obligations ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 16,356 ​ ​ 3,369 ​ 9 Obligations of states and political subdivisions ​ ​ 1,445 ​ ​ 20 ​ 2 ​ ​ 6,668 ​ ​ 169 ​ 3 Corporate Bonds ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 778 ​ ​ 222 ​ 1 Collateralized debt obligations ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 14,709 ​ ​ 3,962 ​ 9 Total available for sale ​ $ 1,445 ​ $ 20 ​ 2 ​ $ 93,525 ​ $ 20,747 ​ 35 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Less than 12 months ​ 12 months or more (in thousands) Fair Value Unrecognized Losses Number of Investments Fair Value Unrecognized Losses Number of Investments December 31, 2023 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Held to Maturity: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ U.S. treasuries ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ — ​ $ 37,219 ​ $ 243 ​ 4 U.S. government agencies ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 57,029 ​ ​ 10,985 ​ 9 Residential mortgage-backed agencies ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 22,613 ​ ​ 2,913 ​ 35 Commercial mortgage-backed agencies ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 16,052 ​ ​ 5,361 ​ 2 Collateralized mortgage obligations ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 43,288 ​ ​ 9,973 ​ 8 Obligations of states and political subdivisions ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 2,205 ​ ​ 671 ​ 1 Total held to maturity ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ — ​ $ 178,406 ​ $ 30,146 ​ 59 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 17 Table of Contents The amortized cost and estimated fair value of securities by contractual maturity at September 30, 2024 are shown in the following table.

The Corporation develops and documents a systematic ACL methodology based on the following portfolio segments: (i) commercial real estate; (ii) acquisition and development; (iii) commercial and industrial; (iv) residential mortgage; and (v) consumer. The Corporation’s loan portfolio is segmented by homogeneous loan types that behave similarly to economic cycles. The following is a discussion of the key risks by portfolio segment that management assesses in preparing the ACL. Commercial real estate loans are secured by commercial purpose real estate, including both owner occupied properties and properties obtained for investment purposes, such as hotels, strip malls and apartments. Operations of the individual projects as well as global cash flows of the debtors are the primary source of repayment of these loans. The condition of the local economy is an important indicator of risk, but there are more specific risks depending on the collateral type as well as the business. Acquisition and development loans include both commercial and consumer. Commercial loans are made to finance construction of buildings or other structures, as well as to finance the acquisition and development of raw land for various purposes. The risk of these loans is generally confined to the construction period. If there are problems during such period, then the project might not be completed and, as such, might not provide sufficient cash flow on its own to service the debt or have sufficient value in a liquidation to cover the outstanding principal. The condition of the local economy is an important indicator of risk, but there are also more specific risks depending on the type of project and the experience and resources of the developer. Consumer loans are made for the construction of residential homes for which a binding sales contract exists and generally are for a period of time sufficient to complete construction. Residential construction loans to individuals generally provide for the payment of interest only during the construction phase. Credit risk for residential real estate construction loans can arise from construction delays, cost overruns, failure of the contractor to complete the project to specifications and economic conditions that could impact demand for supply of the property being constructed. Commercial and industrial loans are made to operating companies or manufacturers for the purpose of production, operating capacity, accounts receivable, inventory or equipment financing. Cash flow from the operations of the borrower is the primary source of repayment for these loans. The condition of the local economy is an important indicator of risk, but there are also more specific risks depending on the industry of the borrower. Collateral for these types of loans often do not have sufficient value in a distressed or liquidation scenario to satisfy the outstanding debt. These loans are also made to local municipalities for various purposes including refinancing existing obligations, infrastructure up-fit and expansion, or to purchase new equipment. The primary repayment source for local municipalities include the tax base of the municipality, specific revenue streams related to the infrastructure financed, and other business operations of the municipal authority. The health and stability of state and local economies directly impacts each municipality’s tax basis and are important indicators of risk for this segment. The ability of each municipality to increase taxes and fees to offset service requirements give this type of loan a very low risk profile in the continuum of the Corporation’s loan portfolio. Residential mortgage loans are secured by first and junior liens such as home equity lines of credit and 1-4 family residential mortgages. The primary source of repayment for these loans is the income of the borrower. The condition of the local economy, in particular the unemployment rate, is an important indicator of risk for this segment. The state of the local housing market can also have a significant impact on this segment because low demand and/or declining home values can limit the ability of borrowers to sell a property and satisfy debt. Consumer loans are made to individuals and may be either secured by assets other than 1-4 family residences or unsecured. This segment includes automobile loans and unsecured loans and lines of credit. The primary source of repayment for these loans is the income and assets of the borrower. The condition of the local economy, in particular the unemployment rate, is an important 20 Table of Contents indicator of risk for this segment. The value of the collateral, if there is any, is less likely to be a source of repayment due to less certain collateral values. The following table summarizes the primary segments of the ACL at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, segregated by the amount required for loans individually evaluated for impairment and the amount required for loans collectively evaluated for impairment: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (in thousands) Commercial Real Estate Acquisition and Development Commercial and Industrial Residential Mortgage Consumer Total September 30, 2024 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Individually evaluated for impairment ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — Collectively evaluated for impairment ​ ​ 4,907 ​ ​ 944 ​ ​ 4,471 ​ ​ 6,841 ​ ​ 847 ​ ​ 18,010 Total ACL ​ $ 4,907 ​ $ 944 ​ $ 4,471 ​ $ 6,841 ​ $ 847 ​ $ 18,010 December 31, 2023 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Individually evaluated for impairment ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — ​ $ — Collectively evaluated for impairment ​ ​ 5,120 ​ ​ 940 ​ ​ 3,717 ​ ​ 6,774 ​ ​ 929 ​ ​ 17,480 Total ACL ​ $ 5,120 ​ $ 940 ​ $ 3,717 ​ $ 6,774 ​ $ 929 ​ $ 17,480 ​ Changes in the fair value of the types of collateral for individually evaluated loans are reported as provision for credit loss in the period of change.

The Corporation’s loan portfolio is segmented by homogeneous loan types that behave similarly to economic cycles. Specific Analysis. A specific reserve analysis is applied to certain individually evaluated loans. These loans are evaluated quarterly generally based on collateral value, observable market value or the present value of expected future cash flows. A specific reserve is established if the fair value is less than the loan balance. A charge-off is recognized when the loss is quantifiable. Individually evaluated loans not specifically analyzed reside in the Quantitative Analysis. Quantitative Analysis. The Corporation elected to use discounted cash flows. Economic forecasts include but are not limited to unemployment, the Consumer Price Index, the Housing Affordability Index, and Gross State Product. These forecasts are assumed to revert to the long term average and are utilized in the model to estimate the probability of default and the loss given default is the estimated loss rate, which varies over time. The estimated loss rate is applied within the appropriate periods in the cash flow model to determine the net present value. Net present value is also impacted by assumption related to the duration between default and recovery. The reserve is based on the difference between the summation of the principal balances taking amortized costs into consideration and the summation of the net present values. Qualitative Analysis. Based on management’s review and analysis of internal, external and model risks, management may adjust the model output. Management reviews the peaks and troughs of the model’s calibrations, taking into account economic forecasts to develop guardrails that serve as the basis for determining the reasonableness of the model’s output and makes adjustments as necessary. This process challenges unexpected variability resulting from outputs beyond the model’s calibrations that appear to be unreasonable. Management also enhances the calculation through the use of Moody’s economic forecast data in its calculation. Additionally, management may adjust the economic forecast if it is incompatible with known market conditions based on management’s experience and perspective. The ACL is based on estimates, and actual losses may vary from current estimates. Management believes that the granularity of the homogeneous pools and the related historical loss ratios and other qualitative factors, as well as the consistency in the application of assumptions, result in an ACL that is representative of the risk found in the components of the portfolio at any given date. Credit Quality Indicators: The Corporation’s portfolio grading analysis estimates the capability of the borrower to repay the contractual obligations of the loan agreements as scheduled or at all. The Corporation’s internal credit risk grading system is based on debt service coverage, collateral values and other subjective factors. Mortgage and consumer loans are defaulted to pass grade until a loan migrates to past due status. The Corporation has a loan review policy and annual scope report that details the level of loan review for loans in a given year. The annual loan review provides the Credit Risk Committee with an independent analysis of the following: (i) credit quality of the loan portfolio; (ii) compliance with loan policy; (iii) adequacy of documentation in credit files; and (iv) validity of risk ratings. The Corporation’s internally assigned grades are as follows: Pass - The Corporation uses six grades of pass, including its watch rating. Generally, a pass rating indicates that the loan is currently performing and is of high quality. Special Mention - Assets with potential weaknesses that warrant management’s close attention and if left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the asset or in the institution’s credit position at some future date. Substandard - Assets that are inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified have a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of 23 Table of Contents the debt. Such assets are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful - Assets with all weaknesses inherent in one classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently known facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. Loss - Assets considered of such little value that its continuance on the books is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical to defer writing off this basically worthless asset even though partial recovery may be affected in the future. The ability of borrowers to repay commercial loans is dependent upon the success of their business and general economic conditions. Due to the greater potential for loss within our commercial portfolio, we monitor the commercial loan portfolio through an internal risk rating system. Loan risk ratings are assigned based upon the creditworthiness of the borrower and are reviewed on an ongoing basis according to our internal policies. Loans rated special mention or substandard have potential or well-defined weaknesses not generally found in high quality, performing loans, and require attention from management to limit loss. ​ 24 Table of Contents The following tables present loan balances by year of origination and internally assigned risk rating for our portfolio segments for the periods presented: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (in thousands) 2024 2023 2022 2021 2020 2019 and Prior Revolving Total Portfolio Loans September 30, 2024 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Commercial real estate: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Non-owner-occupied ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Pass ​ $ 22,535 ​ $ 23,649 ​ $ 66,797 ​ $ 29,249 ​ $ 52,446 ​ $ 95,151 ​ $ 2,053 ​ $ 291,880 Special Mention ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ 719 ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ 719 Substandard ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ 2,707 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 2,707 Total non-owner occupied ​ ​ 22,535 ​ ​ 23,649 ​ ​ 66,797 ​ ​ 29,249 ​ ​ 53,165 ​ ​ 97,858 ​ ​ 2,053 ​ ​ 295,306 Current period gross charge-offs ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — All other CRE ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Pass ​ ​ 18,646 ​ ​ 31,208 ​ ​ 30,295 ​ ​ 23,605 ​ ​ 17,114 ​ ​ 74,405 ​ ​ 5,999 ​ ​ 201,272 Special Mention ​ ​ 997 ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ 1,431 ​ ​ 200 ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ 2,628 Substandard ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ 3,549 ​ ​ 73 ​ ​ 3,622 Total all other CRE ​ ​ 19,643 ​ ​ 31,208 ​ ​ 30,295 ​ ​ 25,036 ​ ​ 17,314 ​ ​ 77,954 ​ ​ 6,072 ​ ​ 207,522 Current period gross charge-offs ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — Acquisition and development: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 1-4 family residential construction ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Pass ​ ​ 6,248 ​ ​ 8,373 ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ 470 ​ ​ 15,091 Special Mention ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — Substandard ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — Total acquisition and development ​ ​ 6,248 ​ ​ 8,373 ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ 470 ​ ​ 15,091 Current period gross charge-offs ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — All other A&D ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Pass ​ ​ 13,552 ​ ​ 26,093 ​ ​ 16,925 ​ ​ 1,882 ​ ​ 1,840 ​ ​ 9,526 ​ ​ 7,912 ​ ​ 77,730 Special Mention ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — Substandard ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ 88 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 88 Total all other A&D ​ ​ 13,552 ​ ​ 26,093 ​ ​ 16,925 ​ ​ 1,882 ​ ​ 1,840 ​ ​ 9,614 ​ ​ 7,912 ​ ​ 77,818 Current period gross charge-offs ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — Commercial and industrial: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Pass ​ ​ 22,943 ​ ​ 43,695 ​ ​ 71,895 ​ ​ 19,146 ​ ​ 7,354 ​ ​ 15,291 ​ ​ 72,952 ​ ​ 253,276 Special Mention ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ 1,911 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 9,152 ​ ​ 11,063 Substandard ​ ​ 128 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 3,993 ​ ​ 886 ​ ​ 6,573 ​ ​ 728 ​ ​ 1,347 ​ ​ 13,655 Total commercial and industrial ​ ​ 23,071 ​ ​ 43,695 ​ ​ 75,888 ​ ​ 20,032 ​ ​ 15,838 ​ ​ 16,019 ​ ​ 83,451 ​ ​ 277,994 Current period gross charge-offs ​ ​ 465 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 124 ​ ​ 651 ​ ​ 41 ​ ​ 16 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 1,297 Residential mortgage: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Residential mortgage -

Loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties that result in a direct change in the timing or amount of contractual cash flows include situations where there is principal forgiveness, interest rate reductions, other-than-insignificant payment delays, term extensions, or combinations of the listed 28 Table of Contents modifications. Therefore, the disclosures related to loan restructurings are for modifications which have a direct impact on cash flows. ​ The Corporation may offer various types of modifications when restructuring a loan. Commercial and industrial loans modified in a loan restructuring often involve temporary interest-only payments, term extensions, and converting credit lines to term loans. Additional collateral, a co-borrower, or a guarantor is often requested. ​ Commercial mortgage and construction loans modified in a loan restructuring 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 loan restructuring may also involve extending the interest-only payment period. ​ Loans modified in a loan restructuring for the Corporation may have the financial effect of increasing the specific allowance associated with the loan. An allowance for loans that have been modified in a loan restructuring is measured based on the present value of expected cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate 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. ​ Commercial and consumer loans modified in a loan restructuring are closely monitored for delinquency as an early indicator of possible future default. If loans modified in a loan restructuring subsequently default, the Corporation 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. ​ The following tables present the amortized cost basis as of September 30, 2024 and the financial effect of loans modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the nine- and three-month periods ended September 30, 2024: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (in thousands) ​ Term Extension Percentage of Total Loan Type Weighted Average Term and Principal Payment Extension Nine months ended September 30, 2024 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Owner-occupied commercial real estate ​ $ 888 0.43 % 12 months Commercial and industrial ​ ​ 127 0.05 % 60 months Total ​ $ 1,015 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (in thousands) ​ Term Extension Percentage of Total Loan Type Weighted Average Term and Principal Payment Extension Three months ended September 30, 2024 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Commercial and industrial ​ $ 127 0.05 % 60 months Total ​ $ 127 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ There were no loan modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the nine- or three-month periods ended September 30, 2023. ​ The Corporation monitors loan payments on performing and non-performing loans on an ongoing basis to determine if a loan is considered to have a payment default. The loans that were modified in the nine- and three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 have made all contractual payments. ​ If a modified loan with an outstanding balance of $ 0.1 million or greater subsequently defaults and goes on non-accrual status, then the Corporation individually evaluates the loan when performing its CECL estimate to calculate the ACL. Upon determination that a modified loan (or a portion of a modified loan) has subsequently been deemed uncollectible, the loan (or portion of the loan) is charged off. Therefore, the amortized cost basis of the loan is reduced by the uncollectible amount and the ACL is adjusted by the same amount. 29 Table of Contents ​ Note 6 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Corporation complies with the guidance of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures , which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements required under other accounting pronouncements. The Corporation also follows the guidance on matters relating to all financial instruments found in ASC Subtopic 825-10, Financial Instruments – Overall . Fair value is defined as the price to sell an asset or to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between willing market participants as of the measurement date. Fair value is best determined by values quoted through active trading markets. Active trading markets are characterized by numerous transactions of similar financial instruments between willing buyers and willing sellers. Because no active trading market exists for various types of financial instruments, many of the fair values disclosed were derived using present value discounted cash flows or other valuation techniques described below. As a result, the Corporation’s ability to actually realize these derived values cannot be assumed. The Corporation measures fair values based on the fair value hierarchy established in ASC Paragraph 820-10-35-37. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value under the hierarchy are as follows: Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets and liabilities. This level is the most reliable source of valuation. Level 2: Quoted prices that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability. Level 2 inputs include inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rates and yield curves at commonly quoted intervals, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks, and default rates). It also includes inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means (market-corroborated inputs). Several sources are utilized for valuing these assets, including a contracted valuation service, Standard & Poor’s evaluations and pricing services, and other valuation matrices. Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the valuation assumptions and not readily observable in the market (i.e. supported with little or no market activity). Level 3 instruments are valued based on the best available data, some of which is internally developed, and consider risk premiums that a market participant would require. The level established within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Transfers in and out of Level 1, 2 or 3 are recorded at fair value at the beginning of the reporting period. Investments – The investment portfolio is classified and accounted for based on the guidance of ASC Topic 320, Investments – Debt and Equity Securities . The fair value of investments is determined using a market approach. As of September 30, 2024, the U.S. Government agencies and treasuries, residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations, and state and political subdivisions bonds, excluding tax increment financing (“TIF”) bonds, were classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. Their fair values were determined based upon market-corroborated inputs and valuation matrices, which were obtained through third party data service providers or securities brokers through which the Corporation has historically transacted both purchases and sales of investment securities. The TIF bonds and collateralized debt obligation (“CDO”) portfolio, which consists of pooled trust preferred securities issued by banks, thrifts, and insurance companies, are classified as Level 3 within the valuation hierarchy. The CDO fair values are determined by a third party using a discounted cash flow model. Derivative financial instruments (Cash flow hedge) – The Corporation’s open derivative positions are interest rate swap agreements. Those classified as Level 2 open derivative positions are valued using externally developed pricing models based on 30 Table of Contents observable market inputs provided by a third party and validated by management. The Corporation has considered counterparty credit risk in the valuation of its interest rate swap assets. Nonrecurring Basis – Individually Evaluated Loans- Individual loans with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty and with a remaining principal balance of $ 0.1 million or more are evaluated for potential specific reserves and adjusted, if a shortfall exists, to fair value less costs to sell. Fair value is measured based on the value of the underlying collateral securing the loan if repayment is expected solely from the sale of operation of the collateral or present value of estimated future cash flows discounted at the loan’s contractual interest rate if the loan is not determined to be collateral dependent. Fair value for individually evaluated loans is determined using several methods. Generally, the fair value of real estate is determined based on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. Adjustments are routinely made in the appraisal process by the appraisers to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. These routine adjustments are made to adjust the value of a specific property relative to comparable properties for variations in qualities such as location, size, and income production capacity relative to the subject property of the appraisal. Subsequent to the initial impairment date, existing individually evaluated loans are reevaluated quarterly for additional impairment and adjustments to fair value less costs to sell are made, where appropriate. For individually evaluated loans, the first state of our impairment analysis involves inspection of the property in question to affirm the condition has not deteriorated since the previous impairment analysis date. Management also engages in conversations with local real estate professionals and market participants to determine the likely marketing time and value range for the property. The second state involves an assessment of current trends in the regional market. After thorough consideration of these factors, management will order a new appraisal. For non-individually evaluated loans, the fair value is determined by updating the present value of estimated future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate to reflect the payment schedule for the remaining life of the loan. Equity Investment- Equity investments included in the table below are considered impaired with losses recognized on the income statement in net gains. Fair value of the equity investment was based on an independent third party valuation report where the value was determined based on the revenue multiples of like kind information technology businesses. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. Other real estate owned – Other real estate owned included in the table below are considered impaired with specific write-downs. Fair value of other real estate owned was based on independent third party appraisals of the properties. These values were determined based on the sales prices of similar properties in the approximate geographic area. These assets are included as Level 3 fair values based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements. ​ 31 Table of Contents For assets measured at fair value on a recurring and non-recurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Fair Value Measurements at September 30, 2024 Using ​ ​ ​ ​ Quoted ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Prices in ​ Significant ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Assets ​ Active Markets ​ Other ​ Significant ​ ​ Measured at ​ for Identical ​ Observable ​ Unobservable ​ ​ Fair Value ​ Assets ​ Inputs ​ Inputs (in thousands) 09/30/24 (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Recurring: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Investment securities available-for-sale: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ U.S. government agencies ​ $ 6,239 ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 6,239 ​ ​ ​ Residential mortgage-backed agencies ​ $ 19,643 ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 19,643 ​ ​ ​ Commercial mortgage-backed agencies ​ $ 28,353 ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 28,353 ​ ​ ​ Collateralized mortgage obligations ​ $ 15,680 ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 15,680 ​ ​ ​ Obligations of states and political subdivisions ​ $ 7,726 ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 7,726 ​ ​ ​ Corporate bonds ​ $ 740 ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 740 ​ ​ ​ Collateralized debt obligations ​ $ 14,779 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 14,779 Financial derivatives ​ $ 438 ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 438 ​ ​ ​ Non-recurring: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Individually evaluated loans, net ​ $ 1,111 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 1,111 Equity investment ​ $ 3,569 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 3,569 Other real estate owned ​ $ 2,698 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 2,698 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Fair Value Measurements at December 31, 2023 Using ​ ​ ​ ​ Quoted ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Prices in ​ Significant ​ ​ ​ ​ Assets/(liabilities) ​ Active Markets ​ Other ​ Significant ​ ​ Measured at ​ for Identical ​ Observable ​ Unobservable ​ ​ Fair Value ​ Assets ​ Inputs ​ Inputs (in thousands) 12/31/23 (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) Recurring: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Investment securities available-for-sale: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ U.S. government agencies ​ $ 6,034 ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 6,034 ​ ​ ​ Residential mortgage-backed agencies ​ $ 20,563 ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 20,563 ​ ​ ​ Commercial mortgage-backed agencies ​ $ 28,417 ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 28,417 ​ ​ ​ Collateralized mortgage obligations ​ $ 16,356 ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 16,356 ​ ​ ​ Obligations of states and political subdivisions ​ $ 10,312 ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 10,312 ​ ​ ​ Corporate bonds ​ $ 778 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 778 ​ ​ ​ Collateralized debt obligations ​ $ 14,709 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 14,709 Financial derivatives ​ $ 756 ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 756 ​ ​ ​ Non-recurring: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Individually evaluated loans, net ​ $ — ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ $ — Equity investment ​ $ 3,087 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 3,087 Other real estate owned ​ $ 4,443 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 4,443 ​ Individually evaluated loans had a net carrying amount of $ 7.4 million and $ 3.0 million with no valuation allowance at September 30, 2024 or December 31, 2023, respectively.

The disclosed fair values may vary significantly between institutions based on the estimates and assumptions used in the various valuation methodologies. The derived fair values are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and significant judgment. Therefore, they cannot be determined with precision. Changes in the assumptions could significantly impact the derived estimates of fair value. Disclosure of non-financial assets such as buildings, as well as certain financial instruments such as leases is not required. Accordingly, the aggregate fair values presented do not represent the underlying value of the Corporation. 34 Table of Contents The following tables present fair value information about financial instruments, whether or not recognized in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition, for which it is practicable to estimate that value.

Compensation Plan Information ​ At the 2018 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, First United Corporation’s shareholders approved the First United Corporation 2018 Equity Compensation Plan (the “Equity Plan”), which authorizes the issuance of up to 325,000 shares of common stock to employees, directors and qualifying consultants pursuant to stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, dividend equivalents, and other stock-based awards. The Corporation complies with the provisions of ASC Topic 718, Compensation - Stock Compensation , in measuring and disclosing stock compensation cost. The measurement objective in ASC Paragraph 718-10-30-6 requires public companies to measure the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. The cost is recognized in expense over the period in which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award (the vesting period). Pursuant to First United Corporation’s director compensation policy, each director receives an annual retainer of 1,000 shares of First United Corporation common stock, plus $ 15,000 to be paid, at the director’s election, in cash or additional shares of common stock. In May 2024, a total of 14,325 fully vested shares of common stock were issued to directors, which had a grant date fair value of $ 21.94 per share. In May 2023, a total of 16,931 fully vested shares of common stock were issued to directors, which had a grant date fair value of $ 13.23 per share. In January 2023, a total of 333 fully vested shares of common stock were issued to a new director, which had a grant date fair value of $ 19.36 per share. In October 2023, a total of 852 fully vested shares of common stock were issued to a new director which had a grant date fair value of $ 16.26 per share. Director stock compensation was $ 213,536 and $ 194,001 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Director stock compensation expense was $ 78,573 and $ 56,000 for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Employee stock compensation expense was $ 8,240 and $ 12,092 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Employee stock compensation expense was $ 2,483 and $ 4,892 for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. 41 Table of Contents Restricted Stock Units On March 26, 2020, pursuant to the Corporation’s Long Term Incentive Plan (the "LTIP"), which is a sub-plan of the Equity Plan, the Compensation Committee of First United Corporation’s Board of Directors (the "Compensation Committee") granted RSUs to the Corporation’s principal executive officer, its principal financial officer, and certain of its other executive officers. An RSU contemplates the issuance of shares of common stock of First United Corporation if and when the RSU vests. The RSUs granted to each of the foregoing officers consist of (i) a performance vesting award for a three year performance period and (ii) a time-vesting award that will vest ratably over a three year period. Target performance levels were set based on the annual budget which supports the Corporation’s long-term objective of achieving high performance as compared to peers. Threshold performance is the minimum level of acceptable performance as defined by the Compensation Committee and maximum performance represented a level potentially achievable under ideal circumstances. Achievement of all threshold performance levels would result in each executive participant earning a payout at 50 % of his or her respective target award opportunity. Achievement of all target performance levels would result in the executive participant earning the target award. Achievement at or above all maximum performance levels would result in the executive participant earning 150 % of the target opportunity. Actual results for any goal that falls between performance levels would be interpolated to calculate a proportionate award. To receive any shares under an RSU, a grantee must be employed by the Corporation or one of its subsidiaries on the applicable vesting date, except that a grantee whose employment terminates prior to such vesting date due to death, disability or retirement will be entitled to a pro-rated portion of the shares subject to the RSUs, assuming that, in the case of performance-vesting RSUs, the performance goals had been met at their "target" levels. In May 2021, RSUs relating to 7,389 performance vesting shares and 3,693 time vesting shares (target level) for plan year 2021 were granted, which had a grant date fair market value of $ 17.93 per share of common stock underlying each RSU. The performance period for the performance-vesting RSUs was the three-year period ended December 31, 2023. On March 9, 2024, it was determined that 7,389 performance-vesting RSUs failed to vest. The time-vesting RSUs will vest ratably over a three year period that began on May 5, 2022. On May 5, 2022, 1,230 shares of the 3,693 time-vesting RSUs were issued to participants. On May 5, 2023, 1,230 additional shares of the 3,693 time-vesting RSUs were issued to participants. On May 5, 2024, the remaining 1,233 shares of the 3,693 time-vesting RSUs were issued to participants. Stock compensation expense was $ 7,365 and $ 49,714 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Stock compensation expense was $ 0 and $ 16,571 for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. All compensation expense related to the 2021 LTIP plans was recognized as of September 30, 2024. In March 2022, RSUs relating to 8,096 performance vesting shares and 6,238 time vesting shares (target level) for plan year 2022 were granted, which had a grant date fair market value of $ 21.88 per share of common stock underlying each RSU. The performance period for the performance-vesting RSUs is the three-year period ending December 31, 2024. The time-vesting RSUs will vest ratably over a three year period that began on March 9, 2023. On March 9, 2023, 2,079 shares of the 6,238 time-vesting RSUs were issued to participants. On March 9, 2024, 2,079 additional shares of the 6,238 time-vesting RSUs were issued to participants. In the third quarter of 2024, it was projected that the performance metric will fail to vest; and, the stock compensation expense was adjusted accordingly. Net stock compensation (credit)/expense was ($ 69,228 ) and $ 78,436 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Net stock compensation (credit)/expense was ($ 121,518 ) and $ 26,145 for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense as of September 30, 2024 related to unvested RSUs was $ 22,758 . In March 2023, RSUs relating to 10,214 performance vesting shares and 7,920 time vesting shares (target level) for plan year 2023 were granted, which had a grant date fair market value of $ 18.25 per share of common stock underlying each RSU. The performance period for the performance-vesting RSUs is the three-year period ending December 31, 2025. The time-vesting RSUs will vest ratably over a three year period that began on March 15, 2024. On March 15, 2024, 2,639 shares of the 7,920 time-vesting RSUs were issued to participants. Stock compensation expense was $ 82,755 and $ 55,170 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Stock compensation expense was $ 27,585 for both of the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Unrecognized compensation expense as of September 30, 2024 related to unvested RSUs was $ 165,509 . 42 Table of Contents In May 2024, RSUs relating to 8,593 performance vesting shares and 6,662 time vesting shares (target level) for plan year 2024 were granted, which had a grant date fair market value of $ 22.26 per share of common stock underlying each RSU. The performance period for the performance-vesting RSUs is the three-year period ending December 31, 2026. The time-vesting RSUs will vest ratably over a three-year period that began on May 20, 2025. Stock compensation expense was $ 37,752 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024. Stock compensation expense was $ 28,314 for the three-month period ended September 30, 2024. Unrecognized compensation expense as of September 30, 2024 related to unvested RSUs was $ 302,016 . Note 9– Derivative Financial Instruments As a part of managing interest rate risk, the Corporation entered into interest rate swap agreements to modify the re-pricing characteristics of certain interest-bearing liabilities. The Corporation has designated its interest rate swap agreements as cash flow hedges under the guidance of ASC Subtopic 815-30, Derivatives and Hedging – Cash Flow Hedges . Cash flow hedges have the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative, net of taxes, recorded in net accumulated other comprehensive income. In March 2016, the Corporation entered into four interest rate swap contracts totaling $ 30.0 million notional amount, hedging future cash flows associated with floating rate trust preferred debt. As of September 30, 2024, $ 15.0 million notional amount remains. The interest rate swap creates an effective fixed interest rate of 4.6550 % on the $ 15.0 million notional amount of the Corporation’s junior subordination debt until the interest rate swap’s maturity in March 2026. The fair value of the interest rate swap contracts was $ 0.4 million and $ 0.8 million at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. For the nine- and three-month periods ended September 30, 2024, the Corporation recorded decreases in the value of the derivatives of $ 319,000 and $ 323,000 , respectively, and the related deferred tax benefits of $ 84,000 and $ 85,000 , respectively, in net accumulated other comprehensive income to reflect the effective portion of cash flow hedges. This compares to an increases of $ 30,000 and $ 14,000 , respectively, and related deferred taxes of $ 7,000 and $ 3,000 , respectively, for the nine-and three-months ended September 30, 2023. ASC Subtopic 815-30 requires the net accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) to be reclassified to earnings if the hedge becomes ineffective or is terminated. There was no hedge ineffectiveness recorded for any of the nine-month periods or three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 or 2023. The Corporation does not expect any material losses relating to these hedges to be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months. Interest rate swap agreements are entered into with counterparties that meet established credit standards and the Corporation believes that the credit risk inherent in these contracts is not significant as of September 30, 2024. The table below discloses the impact of derivative financial instruments on the Corporation’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the nine- and three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Derivative in Cash Flow Hedging Relationships ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Amount of gain or ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (loss) recognized in ​ ​ Amount of gain or ​ Amount of gain or ​ income or derivative ​ ​ (loss) recognized in ​ (loss) reclassified from ​ (ineffective portion ​ ​ OCI on derivative ​ accumulated OCI into ​ and amount excluded ​ ​ (effective portion), ​ income (effective ​ from effectiveness (in thousands) net of tax portion) (a) testing) (b) Interest rate contracts: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Nine months ended: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ September 30, 2024 ​ $ ( 235 ) ​ $ — ​ $ — September 30, 2023 ​ ​ 23 ​ ​ — ​ ​ — Three months ended: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ September 30, 2024 ​ $ ( 238 ) ​ $ — ​ $ — September 30, 2023 ​ ​ 11 ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ Notes: (a) Reported as interest expense (b) Reported as other income 43 Table of Contents ​ Note 10 – Regulatory Capital Requirements The following table presents the Bank’s capital ratios as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 Required for Capital Adequacy Purposes Required to be Well Capitalized Total Capital (to risk-weighted assets) ​ 14.53 % 14.05 % 8.00 % 10.00 % Tier 1 Capital (to risk-weighted assets) ​ 13.28 % 12.81 % 6.00 % 8.00 % Common Equity Tier 1 Capital (to risk-weighted assets) ​ 13.28 % 12.81 % 4.50 % 6.50 % Tier 1 Capital (to average assets) ​ 10.68 % 9.92 % 4.00 % 5.00 % ​ As of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Bank was considered “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. ​ Note 11 – Deposits The following table summarizes deposits at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (in thousands) September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 ​ ​ ​ Balance ​ Percent ​ ​ Balance ​ Percent Non-Interest-bearing deposits: ​ $ 419,437 27 % ​ $ 427,670 ​ 28 % Interest-bearing deposits: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Demand ​ ​ 382,453 ​ 25 % ​ ​ 350,860 ​ 22 % Money market-retail ​ ​ 420,200 ​ 27 % ​ ​ 385,649 ​ 25 % Money market- brokered ​ ​ 1 ​ 0 % ​ ​ — ​ — Savings deposits ​ ​ 176,476 ​ 12 % ​ ​ 191,265 ​ 12 % Time deposits- retail ​ ​ 141,828 ​ 9 % ​ ​ 165,533 ​ 11 % Time deposits- brokered ​ ​ — ​ — ​ ​ 30,000 ​ 2 % Total Deposits ​ $ 1,540,395 ​ 100 % ​ $ 1,550,977 ​ 100 % ​ ​ Note 12 – Borrowed Funds The following is a summary of borrowings at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (in thousands) ​ September 30, 2024 ​ December 31, 2023 Short-term borrowings: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Securities sold under agreements to repurchase: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Outstanding at end of period ​ $ 21,206 ​ $ 45,418 Weighted average interest rate at end of period ​ ​ 0.24 % ​ ​ 0.27 % Maximum amount outstanding as of any month end ​ $ 44,415 ​ $ 59,777 Average amount outstanding ​ $ 33,290 ​ $ 50,498 Approximate weighted average rate during the period ​ ​ 0.26 % ​ ​ 0.24 % Overnight borrowings, weighted average interest rate of 5.00 % at September 30, 2024 ​ $ 29,000 ​ $ — Long-term borrowings: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ FHLB advances, bearing fixed interest rate ranging from 3.84 % to 4.04 % at September 30, 2024 and rates ranging from 4.53 % to 4.69 % at December 31, 2023. ​ $ 90,000 ​ $ 80,000 Junior subordinated debt, bearing variable interest rate of 7.95 % at September 30, 2024 and 8.39 % at December 31, 2023 ​ ​ 30,929 ​ ​ 30,929 Total borrowings outstanding ​ $ 171,135 ​ $ 156,347 44 Table of Contents ​ Short-term borrowings increased by $ 4.8 million when compared to December 31, 2023, which were comprised of $ 29.0 million in overnight borrowings from the Federal Reserve offset by a shift of approximately $ 22.0 million in overnight investment sweep balances into FDIC insured accounts due to management’s strategy to release pledging of investment securities for municipalities to provide additional liquidity.

FIRST UNITED CORPORATION First United Corporation is a Maryland corporation chartered in 1985 and a financial holding company registered with the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “FRB”) under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, that 47 Table of Contents elected financial holding company status in 2021. The Corporation’s primary business is serving as the parent company of First United Bank & Trust, a Maryland trust company (the “Bank”), First United Statutory Trust I (“Trust I”) and First United Statutory Trust II (“Trust II” and together with Trust I, “the Trusts”), both Connecticut statutory business trusts. The Trusts were formed for the purpose of selling trust preferred securities that qualified as Tier 1 capital. The Bank has two consumer finance company subsidiaries- OakFirst Loan Center, Inc., a West Virginia corporation, and OakFirst Loan Center, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company – and two subsidiaries that it uses to hold real estate acquired through foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure – First OREO Trust, a Maryland statutory trust, and FUBT OREO I, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company. In addition, the Bank owns 99.9% of the limited partnership interests in Liberty Mews Limited Partnership, a Maryland limited partnership formed for the purpose of acquiring, developing and operating low-income housing units in Garrett County, Maryland, and a 99.9% non-voting membership interest in MCC FUBT Fund, LLC, an Ohio limited liability company formed for the purpose of acquiring, developing and operating low-income housing units in Allegany County, Maryland. At September 30, 2024, the Corporation’s total assets were $1.9 billion, net loans were $1.4 billion, and deposits were $1.5 billion. Shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2024 was $174.0 million.

This compares to $4.5 million for the third quarter of 2023 and $4.9 million for the second quarter of 2024. Basic and diluted net income was $0.89 per share for the third quarter of 2024, compared to basic and diluted net income of $0.67 per share for the third quarter of 2023 and $0.75 per share for the second quarter of 2024. ​ The $1.3 million increase in quarterly net income year over year was primarily driven by a $1.2 million increase in net interest income. The increase in net interest income was related to the $3.0 million increase in interest on loans due to new loans being booked at higher rates and the repricing of adjustable-rate loans. This increase was partially offset by the $0.9 million increase in interest paid on deposits due to continued competitive pricing pressures. An increase of $0.4 million in interest expense on short-term borrowings related to the Bank Term Funding Program (“ BTFP”) was offset by the $0.5 million reduction in interest expense on long-term borrowings related to the repayment of $80.0 million of Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances in the first nine 49 Table of Contents months of 2024. Comparing the third quarter of 2024 to the same period in 2023, other activity was a $0.2 million increase in wealth management income due to improving market conditions and growth of new relationships and a decrease in operating expenses of $0.5 million driven by reductions in check fraud related expenses, occupancy and equipment, data processing, and marketing expenses, partially offset by increased salaries and benefits. The provision for income tax was up $0.6 million when comparing the two quarters due to increased net income before tax. ​ Year-to-date net income for the first nine months of 2024 was $14.4 million compared to $13.3 million for the same period in 2023. The increased net income was driven by a year-over-year increase of $1.6 million in net interest income driven by a $9.3 million increase in interest income primarily related to increased interest and fees on loans, partially offset by a $7.7 million increase in interest expense due to continued pricing pressure on deposits and our use of the BTFP. The increase in net interest income was partially offset by a $1.2 million increase in provision for credit losses driven by an increase in net charge-offs of $1.2 million, which was primarily due to a $1.1 million charge-off in the commercial and industrial portfolio related to one non-accrual credit where collateral was sold through a liquidation auction at depressed prices. Operating income increased $0.9 million, primarily as the result of increased wealth management income. Operating expenses decreased by $0.4 million and was driven by reductions in professional services, and pension benefits expense, a $0.5 million reduction in check fraud expense, and a reduction in other miscellaneous expenses, partially offset by a $0.4 million increase in salaries and benefits. ​ Other operating income, including net gains, for the third quarter of 2024 increased by $0.2 million when compared to the same period of 2023. The increase was driven by an increase of $0.2 million in trust and brokerage income due to improving market conditions, increased annuity sales and growth in new and existing customer relationships. Gains on sales of mortgages declined slightly when comparing the third quarter of 2024 to the same period of 2023 primarily due to reduced activity in the elevated interest rate environment. Service charge income and debit card income remained stable. ​ Other operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 increased by $0.9 million when compared to the same period of 2023. This increase was primarily due to the $1.0 million increase in trust and brokerage income that resulted from improving market conditions, increased annuity sales and growth in new and existing customer relationships. Service charge and debit card income were both stable when comparing the first nine months of 2024 to the same period of 2023. ​ Operating expenses decreased by $0.5 million in the third quarter of 2024 when compared to the third quarter of 2023. The decrease was related to a $0.2 million decrease in occupancy, equipment and data processing expenses, a $0.3 million decrease in check fraud related expenses, and decreases in other miscellaneous expenses such as marketing, contributions, net other real estate owned (“OREO”) expenses, and pension benefit expenses. These decreases were partially offset by a $0.2 million increase in salaries and benefits related to increased executive and employee incentive accruals, 401(k) plan expense and wellness costs offset by overall reduced salaries and wages. ​ For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, non-interest expenses decreased by $0.4 million when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $0.5 million decrease in check fraud expenses and decreases in professional services, equipment, net OREO expense, line rentals, pension benefit expenses, and other miscellaneous expenses such as marketing, contributions, contract labor, and investor relations. These decreases were partially offset by increased occupancy, data processing expenses and salaries and benefits related to increased incentives, 401K expense, wellness expense and loan origination costs, offset by reductions in life and health insurance costs. ​ Net Interest Income Net interest income is our largest source of operating revenue. Net interest income is the difference between the interest that we earn on our interest-earning assets and the interest expense we incur on our interest-bearing liabilities. For analytical and discussion purposes, net interest income is adjusted to an FTE basis to facilitate performance comparisons between taxable and tax-exempt assets by increasing tax-exempt income by an amount equal to the federal income taxes that would have been paid if this income were taxable at the statutorily applicable rate. This is a non-GAAP disclosure and management believes it is not materially different than the corresponding GAAP disclosure. ​ 50 Table of Contents The tables below summarize net interest income for the nine- and three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Non-GAAP GAAP ​ ​ ​ ​ Nine Months Ended Nine Months Ended ​ ​ ​ ​ September 30, September 30, ​ (in thousands) ​ 2024 2023 2024 2023 Interest income ​ $ 68,444 ​ $ 59,531 ​ $ 68,268 ​ $ 58,965 ​ Interest expense ​ ​ 23,990 ​ ​ 16,289 ​ ​ 23,990 ​ ​ 16,289 ​ Net interest income ​ $ 44,454 ​ $ 43,242 ​ $ 44,278 ​ $ 42,676 ​ Net interest margin % ​ ​ 3.34 % ​ 3.30 % ​ 3.32 % ​ 3.26 % ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Three Months Ended Three Months Ended ​ ​ ​ ​ September 30, September 30, ​ (in thousands) ​ ​ 2024 ​ ​ 2023 ​ ​ 2024 ​ ​ 2023 ​ Interest income ​ $ 23,318 ​ $ 21,276 ​ $ 23,257 ​ $ 21,164 ​ Interest expense ​ ​ 8,029 ​ ​ 7,180 ​ ​ 8,029 ​ ​ 7,180 ​ Net interest income ​ $ 15,289 ​ $ 14,096 ​ $ 15,228 ​ $ 13,984 ​ Net interest margin % ​ ​ 3.46 % ​ 3.12 % ​ 3.45 % ​ 3.09 % ​ ​ 51 Table of Contents The following tables set forth the average balances, net interest income and expense, and average yields and rates of our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities for the nine- and three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Nine Months Ended ​ ​ ​ September 30, ​ ​ ​ 2024 ​ 2023 ​ ​ ​ Average ​ ​ ​ Average ​ Average ​ ​ ​ Average ​ (in thousands) Balance Interest Yield/Rate Balance Interest Yield/Rate Assets ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Loans ​ $ 1,418,964 ​ $ 60,506 ​ 5.70 % $ 1,320,674 ​ $ 50,323 ​ 5.09 % Investment Securities: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Taxable ​ ​ 288,977 ​ ​ 5,088 ​ 2.35 % ​ 337,014 ​ ​ 5,339 ​ 2.12 % Non taxable ​ ​ 7,800 ​ ​ 289 ​ 4.95 % ​ 21,963 ​ ​ 1,183 ​ 7.20 % Total ​ ​ 296,777 ​ ​ 5,377 ​ 2.42 % ​ 358,977 ​ ​ 6,522 ​ 2.43 % Federal funds sold ​ ​ 54,624 ​ ​ 2,246 ​ 5.49 % ​ 66,708 ​ ​ 2,502 ​ 5.01 % Interest-bearing deposits with other banks ​ ​ 1,628 ​ ​ 75 ​ 6.15 % ​ 2,827 ​ ​ 70 ​ 3.31 % Other interest earning assets ​ ​ 4,161 ​ ​ 240 ​ 7.70 % ​ 3,643 ​ ​ 114 ​ 4.18 % Total earning assets ​ ​ 1,776,154 ​ ​ 68,444 ​ 5.15 % ​ 1,752,829 ​ ​ 59,531 ​ 4.54 % Allowance for loan losses ​ ​ (18,020) ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (16,311) ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Non-earning assets ​ ​ 185,660 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 174,411 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Total Assets ​ $ 1,943,794 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 1,910,929 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Liabilities and Shareholders’ Equity ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Interest-bearing demand deposits ​ $ 362,102 ​ $ 4,541 ​ 1.68 % $ 358,883 ​ $ 3,375 ​ 1.26 % Interest-bearing money markets - retail ​ ​ 402,314 ​ ​ 10,567 ​ 3.51 % ​ 324,583 ​ ​ 5,537 ​ 2.28 % Interest-bearing money markets - brokered ​ ​ 37 ​ ​ 1 ​ 3.61 % ​ — ​ ​ — ​ — % Savings deposits ​ ​ 183,096 ​ ​ 138 ​ 0.10 % ​ 227,179 ​ ​ 189 ​ 0.11 % Time deposits - retail ​ ​ 148,458 ​ ​ 3,155 ​ 2.84 % ​ 134,732 ​ ​ 1,750 ​ 1.74 % Time deposits - brokered ​ ​ 20,967 ​ ​ 841 ​ 5.36 % ​ 46,918 ​ ​ 1,849 ​ 5.27 % Short-term borrowings ​ ​ 70,755 ​ ​ 1,437 ​ 2.71 % ​ 51,780 ​ ​ 93 ​ 0.24 % Long-term borrowings ​ ​ 82,571 ​ ​ 3,310 ​ 5.35 % ​ 89,394 ​ ​ 3,496 ​ 5.23 % Total interest-bearing liabilities ​ ​ 1,270,300 ​ ​ 23,990 ​ 2.52 % ​ 1,233,469 ​ ​ 16,289 ​ 1.77 % Non-interest-bearing deposits ​ ​ 473,610 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 490,891 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Other liabilities ​ ​ 33,134 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 31,108 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Shareholders’ Equity ​ ​ 166,750 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 155,461 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Total Liabilities and Shareholders’ Equity ​ $ 1,943,794 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 1,910,929 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Net interest income and spread ​ ​ ​ ​ $ 44,454 ​ 2.63 % ​ ​ ​ $ 43,242 ​ 2.77 % Net interest margin ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 3.34 % ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 3.30 % ​ (1) The above table reflects the average rates earned or paid stated on an FTE basis assuming a 21% tax rate for 2024 and 2023.

(2) Net interest margin is calculated as net interest income divided by average earning assets. (3) The average yields on investments are based on amortized cost. ​ 53 Table of Contents Net interest income, on a non-GAAP, fully tax equivalent (“ FTE”) basis, increased by $1.2 million for the third quarter of 2024 when compared to the third quarter of 2023. This increase was driven by a $2.0 million increase in interest income. Interest income on loans increased by $3.0 million due to the increase in average balances of $69.7 million and a 58 basis point increase in the overall yield on the loan portfolio as new loans were booked at higher rates as well as adjustable-rate loans repricing in correlation to the elevated rate environment. Investment income decreased by $0.3 million due to a decrease of $63.2 million in average balances related to the balance sheet restructuring of our investment portfolio in the fourth quarter of 2023 and the maturity of $37.5 million in U.S. Treasury bonds in the first four months of 2024. The overall yield on the investment portfolio increased by 14 basis points primarily driven by the increased rate on the trust preferred portfolio and the maturity and sale of lower rate investments. Average cash balances declined by $42.0 million as cash from the investment portfolio and on balance sheet liquidity was shifted to fund higher yielding loans. Interest expense increased by $0.8 million year over year due to an increase of 34 basis points on interest paid on deposit accounts. The average deposit balances decreased by $7.4 million when compared to the third quarter of 2023 due primarily to the decrease of $13.1 million in retail time deposits, a $60.2 million decrease in brokered time deposits and a $32.3 million decrease in savings accounts, which was mostly offset by an increase of $96.6 million in money market accounts and a slight increase of $1.6 million in interest-bearing demand deposits. ​ Comparing the nine months ended September 30, 2024 to the nine months ended September 30, 2023, net interest income, on a non-GAAP, FTE basis, increased by $1.2 million. Interest income increased by $8.9 million. Average loan balances increased by $98.3 million and the overall yield increased by 61 basis points in correlation with the elevated rate environment as new loans were booked at higher rates as well as the repricing of adjustable-rate loans. Interest expense on deposits increased by $6.5 million while the average deposit balances increased by $24.7 million, driven by increases of $77.7 million in money market balances and $13.7 million in retail time deposits, partially offset by decreases in savings balances of $44.1 million and brokered time deposits of $26.0 million. Interest expense on short-term borrowings increased by $1.3 million due to the Bank’s utilization of the BTFP program since January 2024. The increased interest expense resulted in an overall increase of 75 basis points on the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was 3.34% compared to 3.30% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. ​ The following table sets forth an analysis of volume and rate changes in interest income and interest expense for our average interest-earning assets and average interest-bearing liabilities for the nine- and three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For the nine months ended September 30, 2024 ​ ​ compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 (in thousands and tax equivalent basis) Volume Rate Net Interest Income: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Loans ​ $ 3,752 ​ $ 6,431 ​ $ 10,183 Taxable Investments ​ ​ (764) ​ ​ 513 ​ ​ (251) Non-taxable Investments ​ ​ (765) ​ ​ (129) ​ ​ (894) Federal funds sold ​ ​ (454) ​ ​ 198 ​ ​ (256) Interest-bearing deposits ​ ​ (30) ​ ​ 35 ​ ​ 5 Other interest earning assets ​ ​ 16 ​ ​ 110 ​ ​ 126 Total interest income ​ ​ 1,755 ​ ​ 7,158 ​ ​ 8,913 Interest Expense: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Interest-bearing demand deposits ​ ​ 30 ​ ​ 1,136 ​ ​ 1,166 Interest-bearing money markets- retail ​ ​ 1,329 ​ ​ 3,701 ​ ​ 5,030 Interest-bearing money markets- brokered ​ ​ 1 ​ ​ 0 ​ ​ 1 Savings deposits ​ ​ (36) ​ ​ (15) ​ ​ (51) Time deposits - retail ​ ​ 179 ​ ​ 1,226 ​ ​ 1,405 Time deposits - brokered ​ ​ (1,026) ​ ​ 18 ​ ​ (1,008) Short-term borrowings ​ ​ 34 ​ ​ 1,310 ​ ​ 1,344 Long-term borrowings ​ ​ (268) ​ ​ 82 ​ ​ (186) Total interest expense ​ ​ 243 ​ ​ 7,458 ​ ​ 7,701 Net interest income ​ $ 1,512 ​ $ (300) ​ $ 1,212 (1) The change in interest income/expense due to both volume and rate has been allocated to volume and rate changes in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amounts of the change in each. 54 Table of Contents ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For the Three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the Three months ended September 30, 2023 (in thousands and tax equivalent basis) ​ Volume ​ Rate ​ Net Interest Income: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Loans ​ $ 916 ​ $ 2,048 ​ $ 2,964 Taxable Investments ​ ​ (304) ​ ​ 159 ​ ​ (145) Non-taxable Investments ​ ​ (95) ​ ​ (24) ​ ​ (119) Federal funds sold ​ ​ (604) ​ ​ (38) ​ ​ (642) Interest-bearing deposits ​ ​ 5 ​ ​ (4) ​ ​ 1 Other interest earning assets ​ ​ (12) ​ ​ (5) ​ ​ (17) Total interest income ​ ​ (94) ​ ​ 2,136 ​ ​ 2,042 Interest Expense: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Interest-bearing demand deposits ​ ​ 6 ​ ​ 244 ​ ​ 250 Interest-bearing money markets- retail ​ ​ 715 ​ ​ 648 ​ ​ 1,363 Interest-bearing money markets- brokered ​ ​ 0 ​ ​ 0 ​ ​ 0 Savings deposits ​ ​ (8) ​ ​ (2) ​ ​ (10) Time deposits - retail ​ ​ (77) ​ ​ 180 ​ ​ 103 Time deposits - brokered ​ ​ (795) ​ ​ (4) ​ ​ (799) Short-term borrowings ​ ​ 6 ​ ​ 428 ​ ​ 434 Long-term borrowings ​ ​ (489) ​ ​ (3) ​ ​ (492) Total interest expense ​ ​ (642) ​ ​ 1,491 ​ ​ 849 Net interest income ​ $ 548 ​ $ 645 ​ $ 1,193 (1) The change in interest income/expense due to both volume and rate has been allocated to volume and rate changes in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amounts of the change in each. Provision for Credit Losses Specific allocations have been made for loans where management has determined that the collateral supporting the loans is not adequate to cover the loan balance, and the qualitative factors affecting the estimated allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) have been adjusted based on the current economic environment and the characteristics of the loan portfolio. For the first nine months of 2024 and 2023, net provision expense was $2.4 million and $1.2 million, respectively. For both of the third quarters ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, net provision expense was $0.3 million. The increased provision expense recorded in 2024 was primarily related to an increases of $1.2 in net charge-offs, which was primarily due to a $1.1 million charge-off related to one non-accrual commercial and industrial loan relationship and was partially offset by improving qualitative risk factors of our loan portfolio. ​ Other Income The composition of other operating income for the nine- and three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 is illustrated in the following table: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Income as % of ​ Income as % of ​ ​ Total Other Income ​ Total Other Income ​ ​ Nine Months Ended ​ Three Months Ended ​ ​ September 30, ​ September 30, (in thousands) 2024 2023 2024 2023 Service charges on deposit accounts ​ $ 1,667 11% ​ $ 1,631 12% ​ $ 555 11% ​ $ 569 12% Other service charges ​ ​ 676 ​ 5% ​ ​ 706 ​ 5% ​ ​ 236 ​ 5% ​ ​ 230 ​ 5% Trust department ​ ​ 6,771 ​ 47% ​ ​ 6,134 ​ 45% ​ ​ 2,328 ​ 48% ​ ​ 2,139 ​ 45% Debit card income ​ ​ 2,931 ​ 20% ​ ​ 2,981 ​ 22% ​ ​ 1,000 ​ 20% ​ ​ 995 ​ 21% Bank owned life insurance ​ ​ 1,000 ​ 7% ​ ​ 936 ​ 7% ​ ​ 340 ​ 7% ​ ​ 320 ​ 7% Brokerage commissions ​ ​ 1,154 ​ 8% ​ ​ 800 ​ 6% ​ ​ 297 ​ 6% ​ ​ 245 ​ 5% Other income ​ ​ 288 ​ 2% ​ ​ 350 ​ 3% ​ ​ 156 ​ 3% ​ ​ 218 ​ 5% ​ ​ $ 14,487 ​ 100% ​ $ 13,538 ​ 100% ​ $ 4,912 ​ 100% ​ $ 4,716 ​ 100% ​ 55 Table of Contents Other Operating Expenses The composition of other operating expenses for the nine- and three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 is illustrated in the following table: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Expense as % of ​ Expense as % of ​ ​ Total Other Operating Expenses ​ Total Other Operating Expenses ​ ​ Nine Months Ended ​ Three Months Ended ​ ​ September 30, ​ September 30, (in thousands) 2024 2023 2024 2023 Salaries and employee benefits ​ $ 21,573 57% ​ $ 21,130 56% ​ $ 7,160 58% ​ $ 6,964 53% FDIC premiums ​ ​ 810 ​ 2% ​ ​ 724 ​ 2% ​ ​ 256 ​ 2% ​ ​ 254 ​ 2% Equipment ​ ​ 2,185 ​ 6% ​ ​ 2,245 ​ 6% ​ ​ 627 ​ 5% ​ ​ 718 ​ 6% Occupancy expense of premises ​ ​ 2,315 ​ 6% ​ ​ 2,272 ​ 6% ​ ​ 709 ​ 6% ​ ​ 745 ​ 6% Data processing expense ​ ​ 4,073 ​ 11% ​ ​ 4,000 ​ 10% ​ ​ 1,333 ​ 10% ​ ​ 1,388 ​ 11% Marketing expense ​ ​ 469 ​ 1% ​ ​ 522 ​ 1% ​ ​ 151 ​ 1% ​ ​ 242 ​ 2% Professional services ​ ​ 1,412 ​ 3% ​ ​ 1,502 ​ 4% ​ ​ 477 ​ 4% ​ ​ 488 ​ 4% Contract labor ​ ​ 416 ​ 1% ​ ​ 446 ​ 1% ​ ​ 149 ​ 1% ​ ​ 155 ​ 1% Telephone ​ ​ 309 ​ 1% ​ ​ 341 ​ 1% ​ ​ 97 ​ 1% ​ ​ 115 ​ 1% Other real estate owned ​ ​ 224 ​ 1% ​ ​ 281 ​ 1% ​ ​ 124 ​ 1% ​ ​ 139 ​ 1% Investor relations ​ ​ 228 ​ 1% ​ ​ 280 ​ 1% ​ ​ 84 ​ 1% ​ ​ 74 ​ 1% Contributions ​ ​ 181 ​ 1% ​ ​ 217 ​ 1% ​ ​ 65 ​ 1% ​ ​ 74 ​ 1% Other ​ ​ 3,364 ​ 9% ​ ​ 3,974 ​ 10% ​ ​ 1,082 ​ 9% ​ ​ 1,429 ​ 11% ​ ​ $ 37,559 ​ 100% ​ $ 37,934 ​ 100% ​ $ 12,314 ​ 100% ​ $ 12,785 ​ 100% ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Provision for Income Taxes In reporting interim financial information, income tax provisions should be determined under the procedures set forth in Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 740, Income Taxes (Section 740-270-30). This guidance provides that at the end of each interim period, an entity should make its best estimate of the effective tax rate expected to be applicable for the full fiscal year. The rate so determined should be used in providing for income taxes on a current year-to-date basis. The effective tax rate should reflect anticipated investment tax credits, capital gains rates, and other available tax planning alternatives. In arriving at this effective tax rate, however, no effect should be included for the tax related to significant, unusual or extraordinary items that will be separately reported or reported net of their related tax effect in reports for the interim period or for the fiscal year. The effective income tax rates as a percentage of income for the nine month periods ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023 were 24.6% and 23.6%, respectively. ​ Non-GAAP Financial Measures The Corporation believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures are meaningful because they reflect adjustments commonly made by management, investors, regulators and analysts to evaluate performance trends and the adequacy of common equity. This non-GAAP disclosure has limitations as an analytical tool, should not be viewed as a substitute for performance and financial condition measures determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results as reported under GAAP, nor is it necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. ​ 56 Table of Contents The following table presents a reconciliation of net income and diluted earnings per share (as reported) to adjusted net income and adjusted diluted earnings per share: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Three months ended September 30, ​ Nine months ended September 30, ​ 2024 ​ 2023 ​ 2024 ​ 2023 (in thousands, except for per share amount) ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Net income - as reported $ 5,771 ​ $ 4,513 ​ $ 14,383 ​ $ 13,302 Adjustments: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Accelerated depreciation expenses ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ 562 ​ ​ — Income tax effect of adjustments ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ (137) ​ ​ — Adjusted net income (non-GAAP) $ 5,771 ​ $ 4,513 ​ $ 14,808 ​ $ 13,302 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Diluted earnings per share - as reported $ 0.89 ​ $ 0.67 ​ $ 2.19 ​ $ 1.99 Adjustments: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Accelerated depreciation expenses ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ 0.08 ​ ​ — Income tax effect of adjustments ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ (0.02) ​ ​ — Adjusted diluted earnings per share (non-GAAP) $ 0.89 ​ $ 0.67 ​ $ 2.25 ​ $ 1.99 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Significant Ratios: Nine months ended September 30, ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 2024 ​ ​ 2023 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Return on Average Assets - as reported ​ 0.99% ​ ​ 0.93% ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Accelerated depreciation expenses ​ 0.03% ​ ​ — ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Income tax effect of adjustments ​ (0.01%) ​ ​ — ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Adjusted Return on Average Assets (non-GAAP) ​ 1.01% ​ ​ 0.93% ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Return on Average Equity - as reported ​ 11.52% ​ ​ 11.44% ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Accelerated depreciation expenses ​ 0.34% ​ ​ — ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Income tax effect of adjustments ​ (0.08%) ​ ​ — ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Adjusted Return on Average Equity (non-GAAP) ​ 11.78% ​ ​ 11.44% ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ FINANCIAL CONDITION Balance Sheet Overview Total assets at September 30, 2024 were $1.9 billion, representing a $10.3 million increase since December 31, 2023. During the first nine months of 2024, cash and interest-bearing deposits in other banks increased by $12.6 million. The investment portfolio decreased by $44.3 million due to the maturities of $37.5 million of U.S. Treasury bonds during the year and normal principal amortization of our mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”) portfolio. Cash from the investment maturities was shifted to gross loans, which increased by $41.2 million and other real estate OREO decreased by $1.6 million due to sales of properties. Pension assets increased by $5.1 million due to increased market values. Deferred tax assets decreased by $1.8 million due to the increased fair values of available for sale securities and pension assets when compared to December 31, 2023. ​ Total liabilities at September 30, 2024 were $1.7 billion, representing a $1.8 million decrease since December 31, 2023. Total deposits decreased by $10.6 million when compared to December 31, 2023 related to decreases in savings deposits of $14.8 million, non-interest-bearing demand deposits of $8.2 million, and retail time deposits of $23.7 million and the repayment of $30.0 million in brokered certificates of deposits, partially offset by increases in interest-bearing demand deposits of $31.6 million and money markets of $34.6 million. Short-term borrowings increased by $4.8 million since December 31, 2023, which were comprised of $29.0 million in overnight borrowings from the Federal Reserve offset by a shift of approximately $22.0 million in overnight investment sweep balances to FDIC insured accounts as a result of management’s strategy to release pledging of investment securities for municipalities to provide additional liquidity. Long-term borrowings increased by $10.0 million in the first nine months 57 Table of Contents of 2024 when compared to December 31, 2023. Maturities of FHLB advances of $40.0 million in March and $40.0 million in September were fully repaid. During the third quarter of 2024 and after the Federal Reserve announced that it would reduce rates by 50 basis points, management made the strategic decision to reduce funding costs and borrowed $90.0 million in three new FHLB advances with maturities of 12 and 18-months and a weighted average rate of 3.89%. $41.1 million was utilized to prepay the principal and accrued interest of the BTFP borrowings at a rate of 4.87% that was scheduled to mature in January of 2025 and approximately $30.0 million was utilized to repay overnight borrowings related to the repayment of the September $40.0 million maturity. The remainder is currently held in overnight cash investments. ​ Loan Portfolio The following table presents the composition of our loan portfolio at the dates indicated: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (in thousands) September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 Commercial real estate ​ $ 502,828 35% ​ $ 493,703 35% Acquisition and development ​ ​ 92,909 ​ 6% ​ ​ 77,060 ​ 5% Commercial and industrial ​ ​ 277,994 ​ 19% ​ ​ 274,604 ​ 20% Residential mortgage ​ ​ 519,168 ​ 36% ​ ​ 499,871 ​ 36% Consumer ​ ​ 54,984 ​ 4% ​ ​ 61,429 ​ 4% Total Loans ​ $ 1,447,883 ​ 100% ​ $ 1,406,667 ​ 100% ​ ​ Outstanding loans of $1.4 billion at September 30, 2024 reflected growth of $24.9 million since June 30, 2024 and $41.2 million for the first nine months of 2024. Since December 31, 2023, commercial real estate loans increased by $9.1 million, acquisition and development loans increased by $15.8 million, commercial and industrial loans increased by $3.4 million, residential mortgage loans increased $19.3 million, and consumer loans decreased by $6.5 million. ​ New commercial loan production for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was approximately $52.1 million. The pipeline of commercial loans at September 30, 2024 was $19.5 million. At September 30, 2024, unfunded, committed commercial construction loans totaled approximately $8.3 million. Commercial amortization and payoffs were approximately $92.8 million through September 30, 2024, due primarily to pay-offs of short-term commercial loans as well as normal amortizations of the commercial loan portfolio. ​ New consumer mortgage loan production for the third quarter of 2024 was approximately $19.9 million, with most of this production comprised of mortgages to be held on balance sheet. The pipeline of in-house, portfolio loans as of September 30, 2024 was $12.8 million. The residential mortgage production level increased in the third quarter of 2024 due to the seasonality of this line of business, particularly construction lending. Unfunded commitments related to residential construction loans totaled $11.9 million at September 30, 2024. ​ Non-accrual loans totaled $8.1 million at September 30, 2024 compared to $4.0 million at December 31, 2023. The increase in non-accrual balances at September 30, 2024 was related to two commercial and industrial loan relationships totaling $12.1 million that were moved to non-accrual during the first quarter of 2024. Subsequent to being moved to non-accrual, one of the borrowers sold a piece of collateral to reduce outstanding balances by approximately $5.5 million. The Bank also recognized approximately $1.1 million in net charge-offs and $3.0 million in principal reductions on the other commercial and industrial credit from the liquidation of collateral at depressed prices. ​ ​ 58 Table of Contents The following table presents loans in our commercial real estate portfolio by industry type at September 30, 2024. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (in thousands) ​ Non-owner-occupied ​ Owner-occupied ​ Multi-family ​ Total Accommodations and food services ​ $ 76,135 ​ $ 4,595 ​ $ — ​ $ 80,730 Administration and support, waste management, and remediation services ​ ​ — ​ ​ 1,424 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 1,424 Agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting ​ ​ — ​ ​ 2,087 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 2,087 Arts, entertainment and recreation ​ ​ — ​ ​ 4,491 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 4,491 Construction ​ ​ 2,052 ​ ​ 5,823 ​ ​ 7 ​ ​ 7,882 Educational services ​ ​ — ​ ​ 895 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 895 Finance and insurance ​ ​ — ​ ​ 107 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 107 Health care and social assistance ​ ​ 6,522 ​ ​ 11,279 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 17,801 Management of companies and enterprises ​ ​ — ​ ​ - ​ ​ — ​ ​ - Manufacturing ​ ​ — ​ ​ 13,008 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 13,008 Other services (except public services) ​ ​ 2,229 ​ ​ 17,442 ​ ​ 311 ​ ​ 19,982 Professional, scientific and technical services ​ ​ — ​ ​ 2,312 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 2,312 Public administration ​ ​ 1,461 ​ ​ 992 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 2,453 Commercial rental properties ​ ​ 180,649 ​ ​ 85,182 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 265,831 Residential rental properties ​ ​ 192 ​ ​ 131 ​ ​ 28,289 ​ ​ 28,612 Student rental properties ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ 2,661 ​ ​ 2,661 Mixed use rental properties ​ ​ 1,449 ​ ​ 534 ​ ​ 17,769 ​ ​ 19,752 Storage units ​ ​ 20,569 ​ ​ — ​ ​ — ​ ​ 20,569 Real estate rental and leasing- other ​ ​ 4,042 ​ ​ 3,191 ​ ​ 406 ​ ​ 7,639 Retail trade ​ ​ 6 ​ ​ 3,182 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 3,188 Transportation and warehousing ​ ​ — ​ ​ 466 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 466 Wholesale trade ​ ​ — ​ ​ 938 ​ ​ — ​ ​ 938 Total ​ $ 295,306 ​ $ 158,079 ​ $ 49,443 ​ $ 502,828 ​ ​ Our loan portfolio does not consist of any loans secured by office buildings located in major metropolitan areas or that are over four stories or any retail properties rented to major big box retail tenants.

The ACL is measured and recorded upon the initial recognition of a financial asset. The ACL is reduced by charge-offs, net of recoveries of previous losses, and is increased by a provision or decreased by a provision for credit losses, which is recorded as a current period operating expense. Determination of an appropriate ACL is inherently complex and requires the use of subjective estimates. The reasonableness of the ACL is reviewed quarterly by management. Management believes it uses relevant information available to make determination about the ACL and that it has established the existing allowance in accordance with GAAP. However, the determination of the ACL requires significant judgment, and estimates of expected credit losses in the loan portfolio can vary from the amounts actually observed. While management uses available information to recognize expected credit losses, future additions to the ACL may be necessary based on changes in the loans comprising the portfolio, changes in the current and forecasted economic conditions, changes to the interest rate environment which may directly impact prepayment and curtailment rate assumptions, and changes in the financial condition of borrowers. The ACL “base case” model is derived from various economic forecasts provided by widely recognized sources. Management evaluates the variability of market conditions by examining the peak and trough of economic cycles. These peaks and troughs are used to stress the base case model to develop a range of potential outcomes. Management then determines the appropriate reserve through an evaluation of these various outcomes relative to current economic conditions and known risks in the portfolio. Management enhances its calculation with the use of Moody’s economic forecast data to provide additional support to substantiate its ACL.

At September 30, 2024, the securities classified as available-for-sale included a net unrealized loss of $18.8 million, which represents the difference between the fair value and amortized cost of securities in the portfolio. Total amortized cost of securities held to maturity decreased by $40.2 million since December 31, 2023 due primarily to the maturity of $37.5 million in U.S. Treasury bonds and $2.7 million in other principal paydowns of the portfolio. Proceeds from the maturities and principal paydowns were utilized for the repayment of FHLB advances. As discussed in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements presented elsewhere in this report, the Corporation measures fair market values based on the fair value hierarchy established in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures . The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). Level 3 prices or valuation techniques require inputs that are both significant to the valuation assumptions and are not readily observable in the market (i.e. supported with little or 62 Table of Contents no market activity). These Level 3 instruments are valued based on both observable and unobservable inputs derived from the best available data, some of which is internally developed, and considers risk premiums that a market participant would require. Approximately $78.4 million of the available-for-sale portfolio was valued using Level 2 pricing and had net unrealized losses of $14.9 million at September 30, 2024. The remaining $14.8 million of the available-for-sale securities represents the entire collateralized debt obligation portfolio, which was valued using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 assets). The $3.9 million in net unrealized losses associated with this portfolio relates to nine pooled trust preferred securities that comprise the collateralized debt obligation portfolio.

Non-interest-bearing deposits decreased by $8.2 million. Interest-bearing demand deposits increased by $31.6 million year-to-date, primarily related to the shift of approximately $22.0 million in overnight investment sweep balances into FDIC insured accounts due to management’s strategy to release pledging of investment securities for municipalities to provide additional liquidity as well as seasonal fluctuations in municipal deposit balances compared to December 2023. Money market accounts increased by $34.6 million due primarily to the expansion of current relationships and new relationships during the first nine months. Traditional savings accounts decreased by $14.8 million and time deposits decreased by $53.7 million. The decrease in time deposits was due to a decrease of $23.7 million in retail CDs primarily related to maturities of a nine-month special CD promotion in 2023 and the maturity and repayment of $30.0 million in brokered CDs during the year. The Bank has worked closely with customers as these CDs mature to transition them to other deposit and wealth management products offered by the Bank. ​ ​ The following table summarizes the percentage of deposits that are insured by deposit insurance or otherwise fully collateralized by securities compared to uninsured deposits as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ September 30, 2024 ​ ​ December 31, 2023 (in thousands) ​ ​ Balance ​ Percent ​ ​ Balance ​ Percent Insured deposits ​ $ 1,181,065 ​ 77% ​ $ 1,175,812 ​ 76% Uninsured and fully collateralized deposits ​ ​ 73,263 ​ 5% ​ ​ 76,569 ​ 5% Uninsured and uncollateralized deposits ​ ​ 286,067 ​ 18% ​ ​ 298,596 ​ 19% ​ ​ $ 1,540,395 ​ 100% ​ $ 1,550,977 ​ 100% ​ ​ ​ 63 Table of Contents The following table summarizes the percentage of deposit balances from retail customers compared to business customers as of September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ September 30, 2024 ​ ​ December 31, 2023 (in thousands) ​ ​ Balance ​ Percent ​ ​ Balance ​ Percent Retail deposits ​ $ 764,128 ​ 50% ​ $ 748,295 ​ 48% Business deposits ​ ​ 776,267 ​ 50% ​ ​ 802,682 ​ 52% ​ ​ $ 1,540,395 ​ 100% ​ $ 1,550,977 ​ 100% ​ Borrowed Funds The following table presents the composition of our borrowings at the dates indicated: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (in thousands) September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 Overnight borrowings from Federal Reserve Discount Window ​ $ 29,000 ​ $ — Securities sold under agreements to repurchase ​ $ 21,206 ​ $ 45,418 Total short-term borrowings ​ ​ 50,206 ​ ​ 45,418 FHLB advances ​ ​ 90,000 ​ ​ 80,000 Junior subordinated debt ​ ​ 30,929 ​ ​ 30,929 Total long-term borrowings ​ $ 120,929 ​ $ 110,929 ​ Short-term borrowings increased by $4.8 million when compared to December 31, 2023, which were comprised of $29.0 million in overnight borrowings from the Federal Reserve, offset by a shift of approximately $22.0 million in overnight investment sweep balances into FDIC insured accounts due to management’s strategy to release pledging of investment securities for municipalities to provide additional liquidity. Long-term borrowings increased by $10.0 million in the first nine months of 2024 when compared to December 31, 2023. Maturities of FHLB advances of $40.0 million in March and $40.0 million in September were fully repaid. During the third quarter of 2024 and after the Federal Reserve announced that it would reduce rates by 50 basis points, management made the strategic decision to reduce funding costs and borrowed $90.0 million in three new FHLB advances with maturities of 12 and 18 months and a weighted average rate of 3.89%. $41.1 million was utilized to prepay the principal and accrued interest of the BTFP borrowing at a rate of 4.87% that was scheduled to mature in January of 2025 and approximately $30.0 million was utilized to repay overnight borrowings related to the repayment of the September $40.0 million maturity. The remainder is currently held in overnight cash investments. ​ Liquidity Management Liquidity is a financial institution’s capability to meet customer demands for deposit withdrawals while funding all credit-worthy loans. The factors that determine the institution’s liquidity are: ● Reliability and stability of core deposits; ● Cash flow structure and pledging status of investments; and ● Potential for unexpected loan demand. We actively manage our liquidity position through regular meetings of a sub-committee of executive management, known as the Treasury Team, which looks forward 12 months at 30-day intervals. The measurement is based upon the projection of funds sold or purchased position, along with ratios and trends developed to measure dependence on purchased funds and core growth. Monthly reviews by management and quarterly reviews by the Asset and Liability Committee under prescribed policies and procedures are designed to ensure that we will maintain adequate levels of available funds. It is our policy to manage our affairs so that liquidity needs are fully satisfied through normal Bank operations. That is, the Bank will manage its liquidity to minimize the need to make unplanned sales of assets or to borrow funds under emergency conditions. The Bank will use funding sources where the interest cost is relatively insensitive to market changes in the short run (periods of one year or less) to satisfy operating cash needs. The remaining normal funding will come from interest-sensitive 64 Table of Contents liabilities, either deposits or borrowed funds. When the marginal cost of needed wholesale funding is lower than the cost of raising this funding in the retail markets, the Corporation may supplement retail funding with external funding sources such as: 1. Unsecured Fed Funds lines of credit with upstream correspondent banks (M&T Bank, Pacific Coast Banker’s Bank, PNC Financial Services, Atlantic Community Bankers Bank, Community Bankers Bank and Zions National Bank). 2. Secured advances with the FHLB, which are collateralized by eligible one to four family residential mortgage loans, home equity lines of credit, and commercial real estate loans. 3. Secured line of credit with the Fed Discount Window for use in borrowing funds up to 90 days, using municipal securities as collateral. 4. Brokered deposits, including CDs and money market funds, provide a method to generate deposits quickly. These deposits are strictly rate driven but often provide the most cost-effective means of funding growth. 5. One Way Buy CDARS/ICS funding – a form of brokered deposits that has become a viable supplement to brokered deposits obtained directly. ​ The following table presents sources of liquidity available to the Corporation as of September 30, 2024. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (in thousands) ​ ​ Total Availability ​ ​ Amount Used ​ ​ Net Availability Internal Sources ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Excess cash ​ $ 40,486 ​ $ - ​ $ 40,486 Unpledged securities ​ ​ 31,876 ​ ​ - ​ ​ 31,876 External Sources ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Federal Reserve (discount window) ​ ​ 83,998 ​ ​ 29,000 ​ ​ 54,998 Correspondent unsecured lines of credit ​ ​ 140,000 ​ ​ - ​ ​ 140,000 FHLB ​ ​ 251,006 ​ ​ 92,914 ​ ​ 158,092 ​ ​ $ 587,366 ​ $ 161,914 ​ $ 425,452 ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Management is not aware of any demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that are likely to materially affect our ability to meet our future capital requirements. ​ Due to the market disruption and uncertainties, management implemented the Liquidity Contingency Plan in the first quarter and believes that we have adequate liquidity available to respond to current and anticipated liquidity demands and is not aware of any trends or demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that are likely to materially affect our ability to maintain liquidity at satisfactory levels. Market Risk and Interest Sensitivity Our primary market risk is interest rate fluctuation. Interest rate risk results primarily from the traditional banking activities that we engage in, such as gathering deposits and extending loans. Many factors, including economic and financial conditions, movements in interest rates and consumer preferences affect the difference between the interest earned on our assets and the interest paid on our liabilities. Interest rate sensitivity refers to the degree that earnings will be impacted by changes in the prevailing level of interest rates. Interest rate risk arises from mismatches in the repricing or maturity characteristics between interest-bearing assets and liabilities. Management seeks to minimize fluctuating net interest margins, and to enhance consistent growth of net interest income through periods of changing interest rates. Management uses interest sensitivity gap analysis and simulation models to measure and manage these risks. The interest rate sensitivity gap analysis assigns each interest-earning asset and interest-bearing liability to a time frame reflecting its next repricing or maturity date. The differences between total interest-sensitive assets and liabilities at each time interval represent the interest sensitivity gap for that interval. A positive gap generally indicates that rising interest rates during a given interval will increase net interest income, as more assets than liabilities will reprice. A negative gap position would benefit us during a period of declining interest rates. At September 30, 2024, we were asset sensitive. 65 Table of Contents Our interest rate risk management goals are: ● Ensure that the Board of Directors and senior management will provide effective oversight and ensure that risks are adequately identified, measured, monitored and controlled; ● Enable dynamic measurement and management of interest rate risk; ● Select strategies that optimize our ability to meet our long-range financial goals while maintaining interest rate risk within policy limits established by the Board of Directors; ● Use both income and market value oriented techniques to select strategies that optimize the relationship between risk and return; and ● Establish interest rate risk exposure limits for fluctuation in net interest income (“NII”), net income and economic value of equity. To manage interest sensitivity risk, management formulates guidelines regarding asset generation and pricing, funding sources and pricing, and off-balance sheet commitments. These guidelines are based on management’s outlook regarding future interest rate movements, the state of the regional and national economy, and other financial and business risk factors. Management uses computer simulations to measure the effect on net interest income of various interest rate scenarios. Key assumptions used in the computer simulations include cash flows and maturities of interest rate sensitive assets and liabilities, changes in asset volumes and pricing, and management’s capital plans. This modeling reflects interest rate changes and the related impact on net interest income over specified periods. We evaluate the effect of a change in interest rates of +/-100 basis points to +/-400 basis points on both NII and Net Portfolio Value (“NPV”) / Economic Value of Equity (“EVE”). We concentrate on NII rather than net income as long as NII remains the significant contributor to net income. NII modeling allows management to view how changes in interest rates will affect the spread between the yield paid on assets and the cost of deposits and borrowed funds. Unlike traditional Gap modeling, NII modeling takes into account the different degree to which installments in the same repricing period will adjust to a change in interest rates. It also allows the use of different assumptions in a falling versus a rising rate environment. The period considered by the NII modeling is the next eight quarters. NPV / EVE modeling focuses on the change in the market value of equity. NPV / EVE is defined as the market value of assets less the market value of liabilities plus/minus the market value of any off-balance sheet positions. By effectively looking at the present value of all future cash flows on or off the balance sheet, NPV / EVE modeling takes a longer-term view of interest rate risk. This complements the shorter-term view of the NII modeling. Measures of NII at risk produced by simulation analysis are indicators of an institution’s short-term performance in alternative rate environments. These measures are typically based upon a relatively brief period, usually one year. They do not necessarily indicate the long-term prospects or economic value of the institution. ​ 66 Table of Contents Based on the simulation analysis performed at September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, management estimated the following changes in net interest income, assuming the indicated rate changes: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (in thousands) September 30, 2024 ​ December 31, 2023 +400 basis points ​ $ 4,826 ​ $ 4,464 +300 basis points ​ $ 4,856 ​ $ 3,353 +200 basis points ​ $ 4,097 ​ $ 2,255 +100 basis points ​ $ 2,392 ​ $ 1,155 -100 basis points ​ $ (2,481) ​ $ (1,280) -200 basis points ​ $ (4,984) ​ $ (3,102) -300 basis points ​ $ (7,730) ​ $ (5,249) -400 basis points ​ $ (10,148) ​ $ (8,086) ​ ​ This estimate is based on assumptions that may be affected by unforeseeable changes in the general interest rate environment and any number of unforeseeable factors. Rates on different assets and liabilities within a single maturity category adjust to changes in interest rates to varying degrees and over varying periods of time. The relationships between lending rates and rates paid on purchased funds are not constant over time. Management can respond to current or anticipated market conditions by lengthening or shortening the Bank’s sensitivity through loan repricings or changing its funding mix. The rate of growth in interest-free sources of funds will influence the level of interest-sensitive funding sources. In addition, the absolute level of interest rates will affect the volume of earning assets and funding sources. As a result of these limitations, the interest-sensitive gap is only one factor to be considered in estimating the net interest margin. Management believes that no material changes in our market risks, our procedures used to evaluate and mitigate those risks, or our actual or simulated sensitivity positions have occurred since December 31, 2023. Our NII simulation analysis as of December 31, 2023 is included in Item 7 of Part II of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 under the heading “Market Risk and Interest Sensitivity. Impact of Inflation – Our assets and liabilities are primarily monetary in nature, and as such, future changes in prices do not affect the obligations to pay or receive fixed and determinable amounts of money. During inflationary periods, monetary assets lose value in terms of purchasing power and monetary liabilities have corresponding purchasing power gains. The concept of purchasing power is not an adequate indicator of the impact of inflation on financial institutions because it does not incorporate changes in our earnings. Capital Resources We require capital to fund loans, satisfy our obligations under the Bank’s letters of credit, meet the deposit withdrawal demands of the Bank’s customers, and satisfy our other monetary obligations. To the extent that deposits are not adequate to fund our capital requirements, we can rely on the funding sources identified above under the heading “Liquidity Management”. In addition to operational requirements, the Bank is subject to risk-based capital regulations, which were adopted and are monitored by federal banking regulators. These regulations are used to evaluate capital adequacy and require an analysis of an institution’s asset risk profile and off-balance sheet exposures, such as unused loan commitments and stand-by letters of credit. ​ 67 Table of Contents The following table presents the Bank’s capital ratios as of the dates indicated: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 Required for Capital Adequacy Purposes Required to be Well Capitalized Total Capital (to risk-weighted assets) ​ 14.53 % 14.05 % 8.00 % 10.00 % Tier 1 Capital (to risk-weighted assets) ​ 13.28 % 12.81 % 6.00 % 8.00 % Common Equity Tier 1 Capital (to risk-weighted assets) ​ 13.28 % 12.81 % 4.50 % 6.50 % Tier 1 Capital (to average assets) ​ 10.68 % 9.92 % 4.00 % 5.00 % ​ As of both September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Bank was considered “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. ​ Contractual Obligations, Commitments and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements Contractual Obligations The Corporation enters into contractual obligations in the normal course of business. Among these obligations are FHLB advances and junior subordinated debentures, operating lease agreements for banking and subsidiaries’ offices and for data processing and telecommunications equipment. Comparing September 30, 2024 to December 31, 2023, short-term borrowings increased by $4.8 million as the Bank borrowed $29.0 million in overnight borrowings from the Federal Reserve, which was partially offset by a decrease of $24.2 million in other short-term borrowings due primarily to the shift of approximately $22.0 million in overnight investment sweep balances into the ICS product to release pledging of investment securities for municipalities to increase available liquidity. Commitments Loan commitments are made to accommodate the financial needs of our customers. Letters of credit commit us to make payments on behalf of customers when certain specified future events occur. The credit risks inherent in loan commitments and letters of credit are essentially the same as those involved in extending loans to customers, and these arrangements are subject to our normal credit policies. We are not a party to any other off-balance sheet arrangements. Commitments to extend credit in the form of consumer, commercial and business at the dates indicated were as follows: ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ (in thousands) September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 Residential mortgage - home equity ​ $ 72,460 ​ $ 72,080 Residential mortgage - construction ​ ​ 11,869 ​ ​ 17,684 Commercial ​ ​ 150,454 ​ ​ 160,196 Consumer - personal credit lines ​ ​ 4,271 ​ ​ 4,186 Standby letters of credit ​ ​ 11,354 ​ ​ 11,037 Total ​ $ 250,408 ​ $ 265,183 ​ The decrease of $14.8 million in commitments at September 30, 2024 when compared to December 31, 2023 was due to businesses and consumers utilizing construction funding. These balances shifted to loans outstanding. For the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, net credit loss expense for off-balance sheet exposures was a credit of approximately $17,000 and a credit of approximately $14,000, respectively. For the third quarter of 2024 and 2023, net credit loss for off-balance sheet exposures was an expense of approximately $55,000 and a credit of approximately $104,000, respectively. 68 Table of Contents Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk First United Corporation is a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and, accordingly, is not required to include the information required by this item. Item 4. Controls and Procedures We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Exchange Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), such as this Quarterly Report, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in those rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including First United Corporation’s principal executive officer (“PEO”) and its principal financial officer (“PFO”), as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints, and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management override of the control. The design of any system of controls is also based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions. Over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. An evaluation of the effectiveness of these disclosure controls as of September 30, 2024 was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the PEO and the PFO. Based on that evaluation, management, including the PEO and the PFO, has concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are, in fact, effective at the reasonable assurance level. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, there was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. ​ 69 Table of Contents Part II.
