Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Note 1. Basis of Presentation Nature of Operations Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries including Live Oak Banking Company, the “Company”) is a bank holding company headquartered in Wilmington, North Carolina incorporated under the laws of the State of North Carolina in December 2008. The Company conducts business operations primarily through its commercial bank subsidiary, Live Oak Banking Company (the “Bank”). The Bank was organized and incorporated under the laws of the State of North Carolina on February 25, 2008 and commenced operations on May 12, 2008. The Bank specializes in providing lending and deposit related services to small businesses nationwide. A significant portion of the loans originated by the Bank are partially guaranteed by the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) under the 7(a) Loan Program and the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (“USDA”) Rural Energy for America Program (“REAP”), Water and Environmental Program (“WEP”), Business & Industry (“B&I”) and Community Facilities loan programs. These loans are to small businesses and professionals with what the Bank believes are lower risk characteristics. Industries, or “verticals,” on which the Bank focuses its lending efforts are carefully selected. The Bank also lends more broadly to select borrowers outside of those verticals. As of June 30, 2026, t he Company’s wholly owned material subsidiaries are the Bank, Government Loan Solutions, Inc. (“GLS”), Live Oak Grove, LLC (“Grove”), and Live Oak Ventures, Inc. (“Live Oak Ventures”). GLS is a management and technology consulting firm that advises and offers solutions and services to participants in the government guaranteed lending sector. GLS primarily provides services in connection with the settlement, accounting, and securitization processes for government guaranteed loans, including loans originated under the SBA 7(a) loan programs and USDA guaranteed loans. The Grove provides Company employees and business visitors with on-site dining at the Company's Wilmington, North Carolina headquarters. Live Oak Ventures’ purpose is investing in businesses that align with the Company's strategic initiative to be a leader in financial technology. During the fourth quarter of 2024, Live Oak Ventures consolidated its investment in Synply, Inc. ( “ Synply ” ) as a result of its controlling interest in that entity. Synply is a cloud-based technology platform designed to simplify the loan syndication process for financial institutions. The non-controlling interest in Synply is disclosed according to the Company’s consolidation policy. The Bank’s wholly owned subsidiaries are Live Oak Number One, Inc., Live Oak Clean Energy Financing LLC (“LOCEF”), Live Oak Private Wealth, LLC (“Live Oak Private Wealth”) and Tiburon Land Holdings, LLC (“TLH”). Live Oak Number One, Inc. holds properties foreclosed on by the Bank. LOCEF provides financing to entities for renewable energy applications. Live Oak Private Wealth provides high-net-worth individuals and families with strategic wealth and investment management services. TLH holds land adjacent to the Bank's headquarters consisting of wetlands and other protected property for the use and enjoyment of the Bank's employees and customers. The Company generates revenue primarily from net interest income and secondarily through the origination and sale of government guaranteed loans. Income from the retention of loans is comprised principally of interest income. Income from the sale of loans is comprised of loan servicing revenue and revaluation of related servicing rights along with net gains on sales of loans. Offsetting these revenues are the cost of funding sources, provision for credit losses, any costs related to foreclosed assets and other operating costs such as salaries and employee benefits, travel, professional services, advertising and marketing and tax expense. The Company also has less routinely generated gains and losses arising from its financial technology investments. 8 Table of Contents Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements General In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been included, and all intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2026. The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2025 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the Securities Exchange Commission ( “ SEC ” ) on February 27, 2025 (SEC File No. 001-37497) (the “ 2025 Form 10-K ” ). A summary description of the significant accounting policies followed by the Company is set forth in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in the Company’s 2025 Form 10-K. These Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes in the Company's 2025 Form 10-K. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with United States ( “ U.S. ” ) generally accepted accounting principles ( “ GAAP ” ) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Amounts in all tables in the Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been presented in thousands, except percentage, time period, share and per share data or where otherwise indicated. Business Segments Operating segments are components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the President of Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. and the Bank. In determining the appropriateness of the segment definition, the Company considers the components of the business about which financial information is available and components the chief operating decision maker regularly evaluates relative to resource allocation and performance assessment. Management has determined that the Company has one significant operating segment, which is providing a banking platform for businesses nationwide. The banking platform generates revenue primarily from net interest income and secondarily through the origination and sale of government guaranteed loans. The chief operating decision maker assesses performance and decides how to allocate resources based on net income which is reported on the consolidated statements of income. The chief operating decision maker uses net income to evaluate income generated from total assets (return on assets) and profitability of the segment in relation to total shareholders’ equity (return on equity). The measures of segment assets and equity are reported on the consolidated balance sheets as total assets and total shareholders’ equity. Net income is also used to monitor budget versus actual results. All of these elements are used in assessing performance of the segment. Significant segment expenses are reported on the consolidated statements of income. Use of Estimates In preparing unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) is a material estimate that is particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term. 9 Table of Contents Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Changes in Accounting Estimates During the first quarter of 2026, the Company enhanced both the quantitative and qualitative components of its ACL estimation process. The Company changed the quantitative component from a discounted cash flow model to a probability of default (“PD”) x loss given default (“LG”) x exposure at default (“EAD”) based credit loss forecasting model to estimate expected credit losses, which incorporates a two-year reasonable-and-supportable forecast period influenced by multiple economic variables followed by a one-year reversion to long-run assumptions. Prior to the change, the Company forecasted losses over a one-year reasonable-and-supportable forecast period using a single economic variable. In connection with the implementation of this model, the Company enhanced its qualitative framework to better incorporate and align qualitative adjustments with the updated model. The cumulative effect of these changes was not material. During the third quarter of 2025, the Company made enhancements to the quantitative and qualitative components of the ACL estimate. Within the quantitative component, the Company updated the method used to forecast the PD during a reasonable and supportable forecast period. The Company changed the economic variable used in forecasting default rates from the national unemployment rate to the Baa-rated Corporate Bond Yield utilizing a logistic regression and changed the default rate forecast starting point from 36 month historical default performance to the most recent 12 month trailing average default performance. These changes were based on a statistical analysis of historical defaults and macroeconomic factors. In conjunction with the enhancements made to the PD methodology, the Company made enhancements to the qualitative framework to introduce weighting of quantifiable credit metrics used in the qualitative ACL estimate to put more weight on the metrics that are the strongest indicators of credit risk in the portfolio. The cumulative effect of these changes was not material. The above refinements have been accounted for as changes in accounting estimates under Financial Accounting Standards Board ( “ FASB ” ) Accounting Standards Codification ( “ ASC ” ) 250, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections , with prospective application beginning in the period of change. Preferred Stock On August 4, 2025, the Company issued and sold 4,000,000 depositary shares (the “Depositary Shares”), each representing a 1/40th interest in a share of the Company’s 8.375 % Fixed Rate Series A Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, no par value per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), with a liquidation preference of $ 1,000 per share of Series A Preferred Stock (equivalent to $ 25 per Depositary Share), which represents $ 100,000,000 in aggregate liquidation preference. Net proceeds, after underwriting discounts and expenses, totaled $ 96.3 million. Holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and Depositary Shares will not have voting rights, except with respect to certain changes in the terms of the preferred stock, certain dividend non-payments and as otherwise required by applicable law. The Company may redeem the Series A Preferred Stock at its option, (i) in whole or in part, from time to time, on any dividend payment date on or after September 15, 2030 or (ii) in whole but not in part, at any time within 90 days following a regulatory capital treatment event, in either case at a redemption price equal to $ 1,000 per share (equivalent to $ 25 per depositary share), plus any declared and unpaid dividends.

Revision of Previously Issued Financial Statements As previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, certain immaterial prior-period amounts in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income have been revised and are reflected below. Specifically, there was a decrease in the line item for net gains on sales of loans, which was fully offset by a decrease in salaries and employee benefits, and travel expense. The changes were presentation only and had no impact on previously reported net income, total assets, total liabilities, or shareholders’ equity. 10 Table of Contents Live Oak Bancshares, Inc.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Accounting Standards Issued But Not Currently Effective In November 2024, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2024-03 “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses” (“ASU 2024-03”). ASU 2024-03 requires disaggregation of certain expense captions into specified categories within the footnotes. The amendments in this standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2027. The guidance may be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the amendments will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. 11 Table of Contents Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06 “Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software” (“ASU 2025-06”). ASU 2025-06 indicates an entity should start capitalizing software costs when both of the following occur: (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The amendments in this standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2028. The guidance may be applied on a prospective, modified, or retrospective transition basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the amendments will have on the consolidated financial statements. In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-07 “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815) and Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Derivatives Scope Refinements and Scope Clarification for Share-Based Noncash Consideration from a Customer in a Revenue Contract” (“ASU 2025-07”). ASU 2025-07 adds a scope exception from derivative accounting for nonexchange traded contracts with underlyings based on operations or activities specific to one of the parties to the contract. It also clarifies that the revenue guidance in ASC 606 applies initially to share-based noncash consideration received from a customer for the transfer of goods or services. The guidance in other ASCs, including derivatives (ASC 815) and equity securities (ASC 321), is not applied unless and until the entity’s right to receive or retain the share-based noncash consideration is unconditional under ASC 606.The amendments in this standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2027. The guidance may be applied on a prospective or modified retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the amendments will have on the consolidated financial statements. In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11 “Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements” (“ASU 2025-11”). The amendments clarify interim disclosure requirements and when Topic 270 applies as well as the addition of a principle that requires entities to disclose events since the end of the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The amendments in this standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2028. The guidance may be applied on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company is currently evaluating the impact the amendments will have on the consolidated financial statements.

The amendments in this standard will be effective for the Company on January 1, 2027. The guidance may generally be applied, by issue, on a prospective or retrospective basis. The Company does not believe this standard will have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. 12 Table of Contents Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Note 3. Earnings Per Share Basic and diluted earnings per share are computed based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential dilution that could occur upon the exercise of stock options or upon the vesting of restricted stock grants, any of which would result in the issuance of common stock that would then share in the net income of the Company.

The following tables show debt securities available-for-sale in an unrealized loss position for which an allowance for credit losses has not been recorded, aggregated by investment category and length of time that the individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position.

There were 94 mortgage-backed securities, four U.S. government agencies and one municipal bond in unrealized loss positions for less than 12 months. Unrealized losses at December 31, 2025 were comprised of 357 mortgage-backed securities, one U.S. government agency and one municipal bond in unrealized loss positions for greater than 12 months. There were 18 mortgage-backed securities and two municipal bonds in unrealized loss positions for less than 12 months. These unrealized losses are primarily the result of non-credit-related volatility in the market and market interest rates. Since none of the unrealized losses relate to the issuers' ability to honor redemption obligations, and the Company does not intend to sell the related securities and does not believe it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the securities before recovery of amortized cost, none of the losses have been recognized in the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. All mortgage-backed securities in the Company’s portfolio at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were backed by U.S. government sponsored enterprises (“GSEs”). 14 Table of Contents Live Oak Bancshares, Inc.

Equity Investments Equity investments, largely comprised of non-marketable equity investments, are generally accounted for under either the equity method or equity security accounting and are included in other assets in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The below tables provide additional information related to investments accounted for under these two methods. 15 Table of Contents Live Oak Bancshares, Inc.

(8) Other investments includes OTR Fund I, LLC (“OTR”) which the Company holds 5.9 % of limited member interests. This investment category also includes the carried interest security related to Canapi Ventures Fund I, L.P. 16 Table of Contents Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Equity Security Accounting The carrying amount of the Company’s investments in non-marketable equity securities with no readily determinable fair value for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 is reflected in the following table: As of and for the six month period ended June 30, 2026 June 30, 2025 Carrying value (1) $ 80,150 $ 84,864 Carrying value adjustments: Impairment — — Upward changes for observable prices (2) — 1,128 Downward changes for observable prices — ( 173 ) Net upward (downward) change $ — $ 955 (1) Investment unfunded commitments of $ 7.7 million and $ 5.3 million as of June 30, 2026, and June 30, 2025, respectively. (2) The equity securities portfolio has recognized cumulative adjustments of $ 59.3 million over the life of the equity security portfolio as of June 30, 2026. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company did not recognize any unrealized gains on equity securities held at the reporting date. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized unrealized gains on all equity securities held at the reporting date of $ 959 thousand and $ 966 thousand, respectively. Variable Interest Entities (“VIE”s) Variable interests are defined as contractual ownership or other interests in an entity that change with fluctuations in the fair value of an entity's net asset value. The primary beneficiary consolidates the VIE. The primary beneficiary is defined as the enterprise that has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the entity's economic performance and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be significant to the VIE. Solar Renewable Energy Tax Credit Investments The Company has equity interests in several limited liability companies that own and operate solar renewable energy projects which are accounted for as equity method investments. Over the course of the investments, the Company will receive federal and state tax credits, tax-related benefits, and excess cash available for distribution, if any. The Company may be called to sell its interest in the limited partnerships through a call option once all investment tax credits have been recognized. Affordable Housing The Company has an equity investment in a limited liability company LIHTC that qualifies as an affordable housing project, managed by an unrelated general partner. The Company accounts for the investment under the proportional amortization method. Under this method, an entity amortizes the initial cost of the investment in proportion to the tax credits and other tax benefits received and recognizes the net investment performance as a component of income tax expense. The Company also has equity interests in two limited liability companies that invest in the acquisition, rehabilitation, or new construction of local qualified housing projects which are accounted for as equity method investments. Canapi Funds The Company’s limited partnership investments in the Canapi Funds focus on providing venture capital to new and emerging financial technology companies. After the initial commitment and over the course of the investment period, the Company will make capital contributions and receive profit and return of capital distributions as a result of fund performance until the funds wind down. 17 Table of Contents Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Non-marketable and Other Equity Investments The Company also has limited interests in several non-marketable funds, including Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”), venture capital funds, and a reciprocal deposit network, all of which are accounted for as equity security investments. For fund investments, after the initial commitment and over the course of the investment period, the Company will make capital contributions and receive profit and return of capital distributions as a result of fund performance until the funds wind down. While the partnership agreements allow the Company to remove the general partner, this right is not deemed to be substantive as the general partner can only be removed for cause. All investments are generally non-redeemable and distributions are expected to be received through the liquidation of the underlying investments throughout the life of the investment fund. Investments may only be sold or transferred subject to the notice and approval provisions of the underlying investment agreement. The above investments meet the criteria of a VIE, however, the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the entities, as it does not have the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of the entities. The Company’s investment in the unconsolidated VIEs are carried in other assets on the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s maximum exposure to loss from unconsolidated VIEs includes the investment recorded on the Company’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and unfunded commitment. For solar tax credit investments, the balance sheet figures are net of any impairment recognized, and includes previously recorded tax credits which remain subject to recapture by taxing authorities based on compliance features required to be met at the project level. While the Company believes the potential for loss from these investments is remote, the maximum exposure for solar tax credit investments was determined by assuming a scenario where related tax credits were recaptured. 18 Table of Contents Live Oak Bancshares, Inc.

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the ACL increased primarily as a result of loan growth, partially offset by an improving economic forecast. Charge-offs for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2026 for commercial and industrial loans are primarily attributed to the distillery portfolio. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the ACL decreased primarily as a result of moderating credit trends and net charge-offs of individually evaluated loans with specific reserves recorded in prior periods. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the ACL increased as a result of growth in the loan and lease portfolio, the impact of the macroeconomic environment on our small business and commercial borrowers, and changes in the macroeconomic outlook. 26 Table of Contents Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements Loan Modifications for Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty The Company may agree to modify the contractual terms of a loan to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty as a part of ongoing loss mitigation strategies.

Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements The following table presents the loans that were modified during the preceding twelve months and subsequently defaulted during the period. Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 Other-Than-Insignificant Payment Delay Term Extension Interest Rate Reduction Total Small Business Banking $ 2,839 $ 4,607 $ — $ 7,446 Total $ 2,839 $ 4,607 $ — $ 7,446 Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 Other-Than-Insignificant Payment Delay Term Extension Interest Rate Reduction Total Small Business Banking $ 7,840 $ 5,658 $ — $ 13,498 Total $ 7,840 $ 5,658 $ — $ 13,498 At June 30, 2025, there were no loans that defaulted after being modified during the preceding twelve months. The Company’s ACL is estimated using lifetime historical loan performance adjusted to reflect current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts. Upon determination that a modified loan, or portion of a modified loan, has subsequently been deemed uncollectible, the uncollectible portion is written off. The amortized cost basis is reduced by the uncollectible amount and the ACL is adjusted by the same amount. Note 6. Servicing Assets Loans serviced for others are not included in the accompanying Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The unpaid principal balance of loans serviced for others requiring recognition of a servicing asset was $ 4.19 billion and $ 3.96 billion at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The unpaid principal balance for all loans serviced for others was $ 5.99 billion and $ 5.60 billion at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The following table summarizes the activity pertaining to servicing rights measured at fair value: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 2025 2026 2025 Balance at beginning of period $ 64,520 $ 56,684 $ 62,941 $ 55,788 Additions, net 6,333 6,458 11,400 12,082 Fair value changes: Due to changes in valuation inputs or assumptions 426 ( 125 ) 464 ( 1,220 ) Decay due to increases in principal paydowns or runoff ( 4,704 ) ( 2,932 ) ( 8,230 ) ( 6,565 ) Balance at end of period $ 66,575 $ 60,085 $ 66,575 $ 60,085 See Note 7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments for further details about servicing assets measured at fair value. The fair value of servicing rights was determined using a weighted average discount rate of 12.8 % at June 30, 2026 and 13.5 % at June 30, 2025. The fair value of servicing rights was determined using a weighted average prepayment speed of 16.7 % at June 30, 2026 and 16.0 % at June 30, 2025, with the actual rate depending on the stratification of the specific right. Changes to fair value are reported in loan servicing asset revaluation within the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. 29 Table of Contents Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements The table below reflects the sensitivity of the current fair value of servicing assets to immediate adverse changes in the above key assumptions with all other assumptions remaining static: As of June 30, 2026 As of December 31, 2025 Fair value of servicing rights $ 66,575 $ 62,941 Incremental Increase (Decrease) in Value Incremental Increase (Decrease) in Value Prepayment Speed 20% increase ($ 4,273 ) ($ 3,794 ) 10% increase ( 2,149 ) ( 1,830 ) Discount Rate 200 basis point increase ( 2,924 ) ( 2,586 ) 100 basis point increase ( 1,432 ) ( 1,189 ) The sensitivity calculations above are hypothetical and should not be considered to be predictive of future performance. As indicated, changes in fair value based on changes in assumptions generally cannot be extrapolated because the relationship of the change in assumption to the change in fair value may not be linear. Also, in this table, the effect of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value of the servicing rights is calculated without changing any other assumption. Changes in one factor may result in changes in another. Note 7. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair Value Hierarchy There are three levels of inputs in the fair value hierarchy that may be used to measure fair value. Financial instruments are considered Level 1 when valuation can be based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 financial instruments are valued using quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or models using inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data of substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Financial instruments are considered Level 3 when their values are determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies or similar techniques and at least one significant model assumption or input is unobservable and when determination of the fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. Recurring Fair Value The table below provides a rollforward of the fair value of the Level 3 equity warrant assets: Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, Equity Warrant Assets 2026 2025 2026 2025 Balance at beginning of period $ 1,916 $ 7,035 $ 1,775 $ 7,162 New equity warrant assets 99 50 217 267 Changes in fair value, net 50 ( 115 ) 76 ( 419 ) Settlements — ( 225 ) ( 3 ) ( 265 ) Balance at end of period $ 2,065 $ 6,745 $ 2,065 $ 6,745 30 Table of Contents Live Oak Bancshares, Inc.

For additional information on the valuation techniques and significant inputs for Level 2 and Level 3 assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, see Note 10. Fair Value of Financial Instruments in the Company’s 2025 Form 10-K. Fair Value Option Until the first quarter of 2021, the Company had historically elected to account for retained participating interests of all government guaranteed loans under the fair value option in order to align the accounting presentation with the Company’s viewpoint of the economics of the loans. Interest income is recognized in the same manner on loans reported at fair value as on non-fair value loans, except in regard to origination fees and costs which are recognized immediately upon fair value election. Not electing fair value generally results in a larger discount being recorded on the date of the sale. This discount is subsequently accreted into interest income over the underlying loan’s remaining term using the effective interest method. Management made this change of election in alignment with its ongoing effort to reduce volatility and drive more predictable revenue. In accordance with GAAP, any loans for which fair value was previously elected continue to be measured as such. There were no loans accounted for under the fair value option that were 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest at June 30, 2026 or December 31, 2025. The unpaid principal balance of unguaranteed exposure for nonaccruals was $ 7.9 million and $ 8.5 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. 31 Table of Contents Live Oak Bancshares, Inc.

Commitments and Contingencies Litigation In the normal course of business, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings. Management believes that the outcome of such proceedings will not materially affect the financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company. Financial Instruments with Off-Balance-Sheet Risk The Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the balance sheet. 35 Table of Contents Live Oak Bancshares, Inc. Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements The Company’s exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as for on-balance-sheet instruments. A summary of the Company’s commitments is as follows: June 30, 2026 December 31, 2025 Commitments to extend credit (1) (2) $ 4,623,214 $ 4,099,313 Standby letters of credit 20,402 51,842 Airplane purchase agreement commitments 48,636 48,636 Total unfunded off-balance-sheet credit risk $ 4,692,252 $ 4,199,791 (1) Includes unfunded overdraft protection. (2) Includes $ 1.78 billion and $ 1.27 billion at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, for which loan commitment letters have been issued. Such letters do not represent a present obligation to extend credit due to the variety of conditions contained in the letters. Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the party. Collateral held varies, but may include accounts receivable, inventory, property and equipment, residential real estate and income-producing commercial properties. Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. Those guarantees are primarily issued to support public and private borrowing arrangements. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. Collateral held varies as specified above and is required in instances which the Company deems necessary. The allowance for off-balance-sheet credit exposures was $ 18.4 million and $ 16.4 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company recorded $ 1.5 million and $ 2.0 million in expense related to the allowance for off-balance-sheet credit exposures, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded $ 240 thousand and $ 718 thousand in recoveries related to the allowance for off-balance-sheet credit exposures, respectively. Other Commitments See Note 4. Investments for unfunded commitments to provide capital contributions for equity fund investments as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Concentrations of Credit Risk The Company from time-to-time may have cash and cash equivalents on deposit with other financial institutions that exceed federally-insured limits. 36 Table of Contents Live Oak Bancshares, Inc.
