Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Stockholders and the Board of Directors
Northpointe Bancshares, Inc. and Subsidiary
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Northpointe Bancshares, Inc. and Subsidiary (the Company) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Company's auditor since 2022.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation
Northpointe Bancshares, Inc.’s (the “Company”) accounting and reporting policies and practices conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company’s primary focus is residential mortgage lending throughout the United States. The majority of these loans are sold in the secondary market through a network of investors. The Company also has developed a mortgage advance program which provides funding to pre-approved mortgage bankers who originate and sell individual conforming and non-qualified loan products in the secondary market. The Company continues to service loans which were originated and sold to investors as well as loans held in its portfolio which were originated and selectively held in portfolio. The Company has two reportable segments, Retail Banking and MPP, which are discussed in more detail in Note 21. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Northpointe Bancshares, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Northpointe Bank (the “Bank”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Significant Group Concentrations of Credit Risk
The Company’s single banking branch is located in Grand Rapids, Michigan, but the Company markets its banking products to deposit customers located throughout the United States. The Company is also active nationwide in mortgage lending through a network of mortgage bankers and other financial institutions. Note 3 discusses the types of lending in which the Company engages. The Company’s primary concentration is in real estate lending, including the origination and sale of 1 – 4 family real estate mortgages to the secondary market to Government Sponsored Entities (“GSEs”) and its mortgage advance program.
Use of Estimates
In preparing the consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated balance sheets and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for credit losses, mortgage servicing rights, and the lender risk account.
Initial Public Offering
On February 13, 2025, the Company completed an initial public offering of its common stock, resulting in the issuance of 8,621,539 new shares of common stock and proceeds of $ 114.2 million, net of offering expenses.
Emerging Growth Company Status
The Company is an “emerging growth company” (“EGC”) as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. Section 107 of the JOBS Act provides that an EGC can take advantage of the extended transition period when complying with new or revised accounting standards. This allows an EGC to delay adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards apply to private companies; however, the EGC can still early adopt new or revised accounting standards. We have elected to take advantage of this extended transition period, which means these financial statements, as well as financial statements we file in the future will be subject to all new or revised accounting standards generally applicable to private companies, unless stated otherwise. This decision will remain in effect until the Company loses its EGC status.
Reclassifications
Some items in the prior year consolidated financial statements were reclassified to conform to the current presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on prior year net income or stockholders’ equity.

Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Revenue Recognition
ASC 606, Revenue Recognition (“Topic 606”), (i) creates a single framework for recognizing revenue from contracts with customers that fall within its scope and (ii) revises when it is appropriate to recognize a gain (loss) from the transfer of nonfinancial assets, such as other real estate owned. The majority of the Company’s revenue is from interest income, including loans and securities, and gain on sale of loans which are outside the scope of the standard. The services that fall within the scope of the standard are presented within noninterest income on the consolidated statement of income and are recognized as revenue as the Company satisfies its obligations to the customer. The revenue that falls within the scope of Topic 606 is primarily related to service charges on deposit accounts, debit/credit card and ATM fees, and sales of other real estate owned, when applicable.
Net interest income includes interest earned on cash and securities, FHLB stock dividends and interest on loans HFI and loans held for sale, net of the interest expense paid on our deposit and borrowing facilities. Interest income is recorded as earned and interest expense is recorded as incurred.
Net gain on sale of loans includes all components related to the origination and sale of mortgage loans, including (1) net gain on sale of loans, which represents the premium received in excess of the loan principal amount and certain fees charged by investors upon sale of loans into the secondary market, (2) loan origination fees (credits), points and certain costs, (3) provision for or benefit from investor reserves, (4) the change in fair value of interest rate locks, loans held for sale, and held for investment, (5) the gain or loss on forward commitments hedging loans held for sale and interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”), (6) the fair value of LRA, and (7) capitalization of MSRs. An estimate of the net gain on sale of loans is recognized at the time an IRLC is issued, net of a pull-through factor (percentage of locked volume that end up closing). Subsequent changes in the fair value of IRLCs and mortgage loans held for sale are recognized in current period earnings. When the mortgage loan is sold into the secondary market, any difference between the proceeds received and the current fair value of the loan is recognized in current period earnings in net gain on sale of loans.
Loan servicing fees include income from (1) servicing, (2) sub-servicing and ancillary fees, and is recorded to income as earned, which is upon collection of payments from borrowers, and (3) the fair value changes in MSRs.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the purpose of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, cash items in process of collection, balances due from other financial institutions and federal funds sold which mature within 90 days. The Company maintains its cash in deposits accounts, the balance of which, at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such accounts. Management believes that the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.

Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Securities
Debt securities are classified as available for sale. Securities classified as available for sale are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive (loss) income. Gains and losses on the sale of securities are recorded on the trade date and are determined using the specific identification method.
Equity securities include investments in mutual funds and are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses included in noninterest income in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. Purchase premiums and discounts on debt securities are recognized in interest income using the interest method.
For available for sale securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company first assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the securities before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income. For debt securities available for sale that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded for the credit loss, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Any credit losses that have not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses are recognized in other comprehensive (loss) income. Accrued interest receivable on available for sale debt securities totaled $ 83,000 and $ 100,000 at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.
Other securities, totaling $ 80.1 million and $ 69.6 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, consist of restricted FHLB stock, which is carried at cost and periodically evaluated for credit losses. Both cash and stock dividends are reported as FHLB stock - taxable in interest income.
Loans Held for Sale
Loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at fair value in accordance with the fair value option. Net unrealized gains and losses are recognized in net gain on sale of loans in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. Fair value is determined on an aggregate basis based on commitments from investors to purchase such loans and upon prevailing market rates. See Note 18 for a description of the methods used to determine fair value.
Originated government guaranteed loans are pooled and sold as Ginnie Mae MBS. Pursuant to Ginnie Mae servicing guidelines, the Company has the unilateral right to repurchase loans securitized in Ginnie Mae pools that are due, but unpaid, for three consecutive months (typically referred to as 90 days past due). As a result, once the delinquency criteria have been met, regardless of whether the repurchase option has been or intends to be exercised, the loan is required to be re-recognized on the balance sheet. The Company had $ 1.1 million of these loans as of December 31, 2025 but did not have any of these loans at December 31, 2024. These loans are recorded in loans held for sale and a corresponding liability to repurchase the loans is recorded in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.
Mortgage Servicing Rights
Servicing assets are recognized as separate assets when rights are acquired through purchase or through sale of financial assets with servicing retained. The Company has adopted the fair value method of accounting for capitalized mortgage loan servicing rights pursuant to FASB Accounting Standards Codification topic 860 — “Transfers and Servicing”.
Management obtains a third-party valuation on the servicing assets portfolio on a monthly basis. Fair value is determined using prices for similar assets with similar characteristics, when available, or based upon discounted cash flows using market-based assumptions. Changes in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights are included in loan servicing fees in the Consolidated Statements of Income. See Note 18 for a description of the methods and assumptions used to determine fair value.

Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
Mortgage Banking Derivatives and Financial Instruments
The Company enters into various derivative contracts and holds financial instruments to manage risk associated with the loans originated with the intention to sell on the secondary market. The Company has not designated any of the derivatives as hedging instruments. All derivatives are recorded at fair value with the change in fair value impacting net gain on sale of loans. Derivatives include interest rate lock commitments (“IRLCs”) to originate mortgage loans intended for sale, and mandatory forward sales commitments to deliver loans at a future date. IRLCs represent commitments to originate loans for which the interest rate is determined prior to funding. Forward sales commitments represent mandatory commitments to deliver loans to investors at a specified future date. The fair value of both rate lock commitments and mandatory forward sales commitments is based on the estimated cash flows associated with delivering a pool of assets at the prevailing market rates and pull through rate. See Note 18 for more detail on fair value of these commitments.
To further mitigate the risk associated with the loans originated with the intention to sell on the secondary market, the Company has elected to account for other financial instruments at fair value. This includes contracts to deliver mortgages entered into on a “best efforts” basis, which otherwise do not meet the criteria of a derivative. The Company has elected to record at fair value the best efforts contracts under the fair value option with the change in fair value impacting net gain on sale of loans. The fair values of the best efforts contracts are based on the estimated price to deliver a pool of assets at the prevailing market interest rates. See Note 18 for a description of the methods used to determine fair value.
Mortgage Purchase Program
Our MPP business provides independent mortgage bankers with an alternative to traditional mortgage warehouse lending. MPP utilizes a collateralized mortgage purchase facility with individual advances under the facility which are reviewed and approved by the Company and secured by the mortgage bankers’ originated one-to-four family mortgage loans. These facilities enable the Company’s MPP clients to close and fund their mortgages and during a relatively short period (typically less than 30 days), the originated loans are sold into the secondary market via government agencies (Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae) or institutional investors (banks, large mortgage companies, insurance companies, mortgage REIT’s) or are securitized.
The Company also participates out portions of the individual advances (“the participating interest”) through participation agreements with other financial institutions. Cash flows associated with the individual advances are shared on a pro-rata basis with the participating banks.
The Company charges the mortgage banker an administrative fee per individual mortgage loan and earns interest while the loan is owned by the Company. Fee income is included in MPP fees on the Consolidated Statements of Income. There were no delinquent loans and or credit losses in the Company’s MPP business during the years ended December 31, 2025 or 2024.
Extended dwell sub-limits of purchase facilities, which have longer than expected standard turn times to be sold, may be issued to the mortgage bankers to facilitate loans that may not be delivered to the secondary market within the terms of the original advance. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Bank had outstanding balances on these facilities of $ 56.5 million and $ 31.4 million, respectively.
Participations of the individual advances referenced above are accounted for as sales, when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of the right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.

Lender Risk Account
A LRA has been established for loans sold by the Company to the FHLB of Indianapolis. The LRA is funded through a reduction of the purchase price and maintained by the FHLB at an initial amount of 1.20 % of the loan balance and is used to offset credit losses over the life of the loans sold by the Company to the FHLB. If the LRA has not been depleted by losses, funds are returned to the Company over time, beginning after five years and continuing through 25 years. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had on deposit with the FHLB $ 55.0 million and $ 54.7 million, respectively, in these LRAs. Additionally, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company estimated the guaranty account, which is recorded in other liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, to be $ 4.3 million and $ 3.9 million, respectively. The Company amortizes the guarantee account over a five to nine year period. Amortization totaling $ 748,000 and $ 397,000 was recognized in net gain on sale of loans in the Company’s consolidated statements of income during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company carries the LRA asset at fair value in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets in other assets with changes in the fair value included in the consolidated statements of income with net gain on sale of loans. The fair value of the LRA was $ 30.4 million and $ 28.4 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. See Note 18 for a description of the methods and assumptions used to determine fair value at December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Loans
In addition to the MPP program noted within this section, the Company also originates residential mortgages, including a specialized first mortgage revolving equity line of credit linked by one account to a demand deposit bank account of the borrower (which we refer to as All-in-One, or “AIO” loans). Excluding AIO loans, virtually all the Company’s residential mortgages are saleable through an end investor. The ability of the Company’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the real estate and general economic conditions in the markets where the Company has originated loans.
Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off and where the fair value option has not been elected are reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances adjusted for charge-offs, the allowance for credit losses, and any deferred fees or costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment of the related loan yield using the interest method.
Accrued interest receivable for loans is included in other assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. The Company elected not to measure an allowance for accrued interest receivable and instead elected to reverse accrued interest income on loans that are placed on nonaccrual status. Accrued interest on loans totaled $ 28.3 million and $ 20.8 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and is included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets.
The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is delinquent ( 120 days for mortgages and 90 days for commercial) unless the credit is well secured and in process of collection. In all cases, loans are placed on nonaccrual or charged off at an earlier date if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful.
All interest accrued but not collected for loans that are placed on nonaccrual or charged off is reversed against interest income. The interest on these loans is accounted for on a cash basis or cost-recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.

Allowance for Credit Losses (“Allowance” or “ACL”)
Management estimates the allowance by using relevant available information from internal and external sources related to historical loss experience, current borrower risk characteristics, current economic conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts, and other relevant factors. The allowance is measured on a collective or pool basis when similar risk characteristics exist or on an individual basis when loans have unique risk characteristics which differentiate them from other loans within the loan segment. The process for estimating credit losses incorporates methodologies and procedures specific to the residential and commercial loan portfolios, each of which has unique risk characteristics. Each of these portfolios is further disaggregated into loan segments, which are discussed in more detail below.
A loss given default methodology is utilized to estimate losses on the residential loan portfolio. This methodology is used to project a default rate, prepayment rate, and severity factor for each loan in the portfolio to arrive at the lifetime credit loss for the construction, land development, home equity, and closed end first and second lien loans. The Company periodically performs a backtest on default, loss severity and prepayment forecasts to determine if any adjustments should be made to the model, which includes a comparison of actual defaults, losses and prepayments with those originally forecasted. The accumulated expected credit losses are impacted by changes in borrower delinquencies, changes in loan to values, and changes in FICO scores. Lifetime credit losses are also adjusted by reasonable and supportable economic forecasts. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Moody’s Baseline December 2025 and December 2024 U.S. Macroeconomic Outlook, respectively, were utilized.
For the commercial loan portfolio, excluding MPP, a discounted cash flow methodology adjusted for peer group benchmarks on probability of default, prepayment speeds, and curtailment rate is used. Within the commercial loan portfolio, management utilizes an internal loan grading system and assigns each loan a grade of pass, special mention, substandard, or doubtful, which are more fully explained in Note 3. The amount of credit losses, if any, is measured by a comparison of the loan’s carrying value to the net present value of future cash flows using the loan’s existing rate or at the fair value of collateral if repayment is expected to solely from the collateral.
For MPP, a separate analysis is completed for the ACL associated with this portfolio due to its unique characteristics and absence of loss history. The portfolio typically includes a mandatory investor take-out commitment and is backed by a seller repurchase obligation. In addition, MPP clients close and fund their mortgages during a relatively short period (typically less than 30 days). As a result, these loans have generated no losses over the life of the program. Based on management’s assessment of risk, a qualitative reserve has been established for this portfolio.
Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis and are not included in the collective evaluation. Factors considered by management in determining credit losses include payment status, collateral value, and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experience insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally are not classified as individually evaluated. Management determines the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower’s prior payment record, and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Credit losses are individually evaluated by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s obtainable market price, or the fair value of the collateral if the loan is collateral dependent.
Qualitative Factors
Each quarter, management also considers the need to adjust historical loss rates as determined to reflect the extent to which current conditions and reasonable and supportable economic forecasts are expected to differ or where specific risks and uncertainties are not fully captured by the quantitative model. These qualitative adjustments may increase or decrease the estimate of expected future credit losses. The qualitative factors include economic forecast uncertainty, underwriting and collection trends, changes in nature and volume of portfolio, changes in the volume and severity of past due loans, collateral trends, concentration risk, quality of loan review, changes in personnel, external factors, and other considerations.

Residential Loan Segments
Construction and land development: Construction and land development loans consist of loans to individuals for the construction of their primary residences. Loans to individuals for the construction of their residences typically run for up to 12 or 18 months and then convert to permanent loans. These construction loans have rates and terms comparable to one-to-four family loans. During the construction phase, the borrower pays interest only. The maximum loan-to-value ratio of owner-occupied single-family construction loans is 80%. Residential construction loans are generally underwritten pursuant to the same guidelines used for originating permanent residential loans. Construction loans generally are made for relatively short terms. However, to the extent construction loans are not made to owner-occupants of single-family homes, they are more vulnerable to changes in economic conditions and the concentration of credit with a limited number of borrowers. Further, the nature of these loans is such that they are more difficult to evaluate and monitor. The risk of loss on a construction loan is dependent largely upon the accuracy of the initial estimate of the property’s value upon timely completion of the project and the estimated cost (including interest) of the project.
Home equity lines of credit: Home equity lines of credit mainly consist of variable-rate home equity lines of credit secured by a lien on the borrower’s primary residence. These include first-lien home equity lines which are tied seamlessly to a demand deposit sweep account, which are limited to 80% of the property value. Home equity products are limited to 90% of the property value less any other mortgages if the first loan is with the Bank. Home equity products in a secondary lien position are limited to 85% of the property value less any superior liens. The Company uses the same underwriting standards for home equity lines of credit as it uses for one-to-four family residential mortgage loans. Home equity lines of credit provide for an initial draw period of up to ten years. Home equity loans are susceptible to weakening general economic conditions and increase in unemployment rates and declining real estate values.
Closed end, first and second liens: Closed end, first and second liens consist of one-to-four family residential loans which are primarily loans secured by first or second liens or mortgages on primary residences. The Company originates adjustable-rate and fixed-rate, one-to-four-family residential real estate loans for the construction, purchase or refinancing of a mortgage. These loans are collateralized by owner-occupied properties. Loans on one-to-four-family residential real estate are generally originated in amounts of up to 90% for owner-occupied one-to-four family homes and up to 85% for non-owner occupied homes. Mortgage title insurance and hazard insurance are normally required. Such loans are susceptible to weakening general economic conditions and increases in unemployment rates and declining real estate values.
Commercial Loan Segments
Commercial: Commercial business loans and lines of credit consist of loans to small- and medium- sized companies in the Company’s market area. Commercial business loans are generally used for working capital purposes. Risk to this category include declining valuation of collateral and weakening general economic conditions.
MPP: Individual advances under the facility are reviewed and approved by the Company and are secured by specific one-to-four family mortgage loans, which the mortgage banker intends to sell and deliver to the secondary market within 60 days. The MPP business is susceptible to weakening general economic conditions and increases in unemployment rates and declining real estate values.
Unfunded Loan Commitments
The Company is also required to consider expected credit losses associated with loan commitments over the contractual period in which it is exposed to credit risk on the underlying commitments unless the obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. Any allowance for off balance sheet credit exposure is reported in other liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets and is increased or decreased by provision for credit losses on the Company’s consolidated statement of income. The calculation uses the same methodology, inputs, and assumptions as the funded portion of the loans at the segment level applied to the amount of commitments expected to be funded.
Off-balance-sheet Instruments
In the ordinary course of business, the Company may enter into commitments under commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded. There were no letter of credit commitments as of December 31, 2025 or 2024.

Bank Premises and Equipment, net
Premises and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation, computed on the straight-line method, is charged to occupancy and equipment expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income over the estimated useful lives of the assets ranging from 1 to 40 years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the terms of their respective leases or the estimated useful lives of the improvements, whichever is shorter. Interest costs incurred during the construction period of new facilities are capitalized as part of the cost of the building and depreciated over the estimated useful life of the asset.
Other Real Estate Owned
Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are held for sale and are initially recorded at fair value (less costs to sell) at the date of the foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Subsequent to foreclosure, valuations are periodically performed by management, and the assets are carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell. Related revenue, expenses, and changes in the valuation allowance are included in other expenses. Total other real estate owned included in other assets at December 31, 2025 and 2024 was approximately $ 1.7 million and $ 3.0 million, respectively. The Company had loans in the process of foreclosure totaling $ 18.1 million as of December 31, 2025 and $ 2.2 million as of December 31, 2024.
Leases
ASU 2016-02, Leases establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases are classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. Right of use assets and lease liabilities are recognized at lease commencement date based upon the estimated present value of lease payments over the lease term.
The ROU assets and lease liabilities were both $ 1.0 million at December 31, 2025 and were both $ 1.5 million at December 31, 2024. ROU assets are included in other assets and ROU lease liabilities are include in other liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Repurchase Reserve
The Company sells residential mortgage loans to investors in the normal course of business. Residential mortgage loans sold to investors are predominantly conventional residential first lien mortgages originated under our usual underwriting procedures and are sold on a nonrecourse basis. The Company’s agreements to sell residential mortgage loans usually require general representations and warranties on the underlying loans sold, related to credit information, loan documentation, collateral, and insurability, which if subsequently untrue or breached, could require the Company to indemnify or repurchase certain loans affected. The balance in the repurchase reserve at the balance sheet date reflects the estimated amount of potential loss the Company could incur from repurchasing a loan, as well as loss reimbursements, indemnification, and other “make whole” settlement resolutions. The Company’s repurchase reserve was approximately $ 2.1 million and $ 2.6 million, as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and is included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet.
Stock Compensation Plans
The Company recognizes compensation cost for equity-based compensation for all new or modified grants. The recognized costs are based on the fair value of the equity-based awards granted and are recognized over the vesting period.
Comprehensive Income
Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains, and losses be included in net income. Although certain changes in assets and liabilities, such as unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, are reported as a separate component of the equity section of the consolidated balance sheets, such items, along with net income, are components of comprehensive income.

Income Taxes
Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the various temporary differences between the book and tax bases of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws.
The Company records uncertain tax positions in accordance with ASC Topic 740 “Income Taxes” on the basis of a two-step process whereby (1) the Company determines whether it is more likely than not that the tax positions will be sustained on the basis of the technical merits of the position and (2) for those tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold, the Company recognizes the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50% likely to be realized upon ultimate settlement with the related tax authority.
The Company evaluates the realization of the deferred tax assets based on future taxable income, among other things. In the event that the deferred tax asset has been determined to not be realizable, a valuation allowance is established.
Transfers of Financial Assets
Transfers of financial assets are accounted for as sales when control over the assets has been surrendered. Control over transferred assets is deemed to be surrendered when (1) the assets have been isolated from the Company, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of the right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets subject to amortization are amortized over the estimated life, using a method that approximates the time the economic benefits are realized by the Company. Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment at least annually and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable.
The Company acquired certain retail lending offices from an unaffiliated company during 2018. This acquisition enabled the Company to expand its geographical footprint of retail lending offices. The acquired retail lending offices included $ 300,000 of acquired tangible assets. The fair value of customer-related intangible assets was $ 11.2 million less the expected payout of $ 732,000 for a net value of $ 10.5 million at the time of acquisition.
Amortization of the intangible asset was $ 586,000 in 2025 and $ 973,000 in 2024. Decreases in loan production, margin, or other changes in the secondary market may impact the carrying value of the recorded intangible asset. As a result of projected decreases in loan production and margins, an impairment of $ 1.5 million was recorded 2024. There was no impairment recorded in 2025. Amortization is expected to be approximately $ 586,000 per year in 2026 and 2027 and $ 341,000 in 2028. The net balance of intangible asset was $ 1.5 million and $ 2.1 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Earnings Per share
Basic earnings per share represent net income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted- average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted earnings per share reflect additional potential shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common stock had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Potential common stock that may be issued by the Company is determined using the treasury stock method.

New Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, “Income Taxes: Improvement to Income Tax Disclosures (Topic 740).” This ASU requires entities to disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliations and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold. The ASU requires all entities to disclose the amount of income taxes paid, disaggregated by federal state and foreign taxes, the amount of income taxes paid disaggregated by individual jurisdictions in which income taxes paid is equal or greater than 5% of total income taxes paid. The ASU also requires that entities disclose income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (or benefit) disaggregated between domestic or foreign and income tax expense (or benefit) from continuing operations disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company adopted this ASU as required as of December 31, 2025 and applied the retrospective method. The Company is not subject to taxes outside of the United States of America. Adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements or related income tax footnote.
Issued Not Yet Effective Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The amendments in this ASU require disclosure, in the notes to financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses, including (a) purchases of inventory, (b) employee compensation, (c) depreciation, (d) intangible asset amortization, and (e) depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil-and gas-producing activities (DD&A) (or other amounts of depletion expense) included in each relevant expense caption. The ASU is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is allowed.

Note 3 — Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses (continued)
Collateral dependent loans are loans for which the repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the sale of the collateral and the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. The allowance on collateral dependent loans is calculated on an individual loan basis of the shortfall between the fair value of the loan’s collateral, which is adjusted for selling costs, and the loan’s amortized cost.

Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
On occasion, the Company modifies loans to borrowers in financial distress by providing principal forgiveness, term extensions, interest rate reductions, or payment delays. When principal forgiveness is provided, the amount of forgiveness is charged-off against the allowance for credit losses. In some cases, the Company provides multiple types of concessions on one loan.
During the twelve months ended months ended December 31, 2025, there were $ 8.3 million in loans that were both experiencing financial difficulty and modified during the period: 24 closed end, first liens, for $ 7.7 million and two home equity lines of credit for $ 513,000 . These loans were a combination of term extensions and interest rate reductions and each were on nonaccrual status at time of modification. During the year ended December 31, 2024, there were $ 4.5 million in loans that were both experiencing financial difficulty and modified during the period: 14 closed end, first lien loans for $ 3.9 million, one construction and land development for $ 255,000 , one home equity line of credit for $ 134,000 and one closed end, second lien for $ 153,000 . These loans were a combination of term extension and interest rate reduction. At December 31, 2025, $ 2.9 million of the loans modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the twelve months ended December 31, 2025 were more than 90 days past due.

Credit Quality Indicators
The Company categorized each loan into credit risk categories based on current financial information, overall debt service coverage, comparison against industry averages, collateral coverage, historical payment experience, and current economic trends. Residential real estate is evaluated for credit risk based on performing or non-performing classification. The Company uses the following definitions for credit risk ratings:
Performing
Residential real estate credits not covered by the non-performing definition below.
Non-performing
Residential real estate loans classified as non-performing are generally loans on nonaccrual status.
Pass
Commercial credits not covered by the definitions below are pass credits, which are not considered to be adversely rated.
Special Mention
Loans classified as special mention, or watch credits, have a potential weakness or weaknesses that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date.
Substandard
Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution may sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Note 5 — Mortgage Servicing Rights
The right to service loans for others is recognized as a MSR on the balance sheet. MSRs are recognized either when purchased or when originated loans are sold with servicing retained. The unpaid principal balances of loans serviced for others under MSRs were approximately $ 1.6 billion and $ 1.2 billion at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. In addition, approximately $ 3.1 billion and $ 3.0 billion at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, of loans were sub-serviced on behalf of other unaffiliated investors.

Note 6 — Derivative Financial Instruments
Forward contracts are contracts for delayed delivery of loans or mortgage-backed securities in which the seller agrees to make delivery at a future date of a specified instrument, at a specified price or yield. Risks arise from the possible inability of the Company to compile a portfolio of loans and from movements in interest rates. These contracts are used primarily to reduce the exposure to interest rate fluctuations for loans in progress and in loan inventory held for sale to investors. Most forward contracts are for terms of 30 days to 90 days. The Company had outstanding forward contracts of approximately $ 184.6 million and $ 110.6 million at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Forward commitments represent forward contracts, closed held for sale loans with a committed investor, and pair-off contracts.
Interest rate lock commitments, which are included in the commitments to extend credit in other assets and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets with the income offset recorded to gain on sale of loans, net in the consolidated statements of income, represent commitments to lend to customers at predetermined interest rates.

Note 10 — Subordinated Debentures Issued through Trusts
Northpointe Statutory Trust I, a business trust, sold 5,000 cumulative preferred securities (trust preferred securities) at $ 1,000 per trust preferred security in a March 17, 2004 pooled offering. The proceeds from the sale of the trust preferred securities were used by Northpointe Statutory Trust I to purchase an equivalent amount of subordinated debentures from Northpointe Bancshares, Inc. The subordinated debentures issued by the Company carry a floating rate equal to the three-month CME Term SOFR plus tenor spread adjustment of 0.26161 plus 2.79 % or three-month LIBOR plus 2.79 % (an effective rate of 6.70 % and 7.40 % at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively), have a stated maturity of 30 years and, in effect, are guaranteed by Northpointe Bancshares, Inc. The subordinated debentures include fall back language to determine an alternative index rate calculation if the three-month LIBOR rate index is unavailable; however, the alternative index rate must be based on a three-month product.
The subordinated debentures are carried on the consolidated balance sheets as a liability. The related interest expense, including amortization of the issuance cost, is recorded on the consolidated statements of income. The securities are redeemable at par after five years . Distributions on the subordinated debentures are payable quarterly. Under certain circumstances, distributions may be deferred for up to 20 calendar quarters. However, during any such deferrals, interest accrues on any unpaid distributions at the stated rate per annum.
Note 11 — Issuance of Preferred Stock
On December 30, 2021, the Company issued $ 25.0 million of 7.25 % Fixed-to-Floating Rate Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series B (“Series B Preferred Stock”), no par value, with a liquidation preference of $ 1,000 per share. When, as, and if declared by the board of directors of the Company, dividends will be payable at an annual initial coupon rate of 7.25 %, payable quarterly, in arrears. After the fixed rate period, which ends December 30, 2026, dividends, if declared, are payable at a variable rate equal to the three-month SOFR plus 7.00 %, reset and payable quarterly, in arrears.
On December 29, 2020, the Company issued $ 95.0 million of 8.25 % Fixed-to-Floating Rate Non- Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, no par value, with a liquidation preference of $ 1,000 per share (“Series A Preferred Stock”). When, as, and if declared by the board of directors of the Company, dividends were payable at an annual initial coupon rate of 8.25 %, payable quarterly, in arrears. After the fixed rate period, which would have ended December 30, 2025, dividends, if declared, are payable at a variable rate equal to the three-month SOFR plus 7.99 %, reset and payable quarterly, in arrears.
The cash raised by the Company through these issuances of preferred stock was used as a source of capital for the Bank’s organic growth, and general corporate matters. During 2024, the Company redeemed 13,000 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock for $ 11.6 million. On March 31, 2025, the Company redeemed an additional 5,000 shares of the Series A Preferred Stock for $ 4.9 million. During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company redeemed the remaining 77,000 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for $ 77.0 million.
Preferred stock dividends and related costs for the year ended December 31, 2025 included a non-recurring special dividend of $ 2.50 per share, totaling $ 255,000 , paid on June 30, 2025 on the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock and the Company’s Series B Preferred Stock. This special dividend was paid in connection with amendments made to the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock on May 16, 2025 and to the Series B Preferred Stock on May 21, 2025 to extend the registration rights agreements deadlines to January 2, 2026 for the Series A Preferred Stock and to January 2, 2027 for the Series B Preferred Stock. It also included $ 3.2 million in unamortized debt issuance costs related to the redemption of Series A Preferred Stock.

Note 12 — Off-balance-sheet Activities
Credit-related Financial Instruments
The Company is a party to credit-related 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, standby letters of credit, and commercial letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheet.
The Company’s exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of these commitments. The Company follows the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments.
At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the following financial instruments were outstanding whose contract amounts represent credit risk (dollars in thousands):
Contract Amount
2025 2024
Commitments to grant loans $ 4,161,523 $ 2,407,551
Unfunded commitments under lines of credit 371,034 334,180
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. The commitments for equity lines of credit may expire without being drawn upon. Therefore, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Company, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the customer.
Unfunded commitments under lines of credit are commitments for possible future extensions of credit to existing customers. These lines of credit are collateralized and usually do not contain a specified maturity date and may not be drawn upon to the total extent to which the Company is committed.
The Company is required to consider expected credit losses associated with unfunded commitments. Any allowance for unfunded commitment credit exposure is reported in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets and is increased or decreased through the provision (benefit) for credit losses on the consolidated statement of income. The calculated allowance for unfunded commitments was $ 330,000 and $ 385,000 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Collateral Requirements
To reduce credit risk related to the use of credit-related financial instruments, the Company might deem it necessary to obtain collateral. The amount and nature of the collateral obtained are based on the Company’s credit evaluation of the customer. Collateral held varies but may include cash, securities, accounts receivable, inventory, property, plant, and equipment, and real estate.
If the counterparty does not have the right and ability to redeem the collateral or the Company is permitted to sell or re-pledge the collateral on short notice, the Company records the collateral in its consolidated balance sheet at fair value with a corresponding obligation to return it.
Legal Contingencies
Various legal claims also arise from time to time in the normal course of business which, in the opinion of management, will have no material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 13 — Employee Benefits
The Company sponsors a 401(K) plan which contains an employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”) investment option. The 401(k) Plan is available to all employees, on the 1st of the month following 90 days of employment. Participants in the plan have the option to contribute from 0 % to 100 % of their annual compensation, up to the IRS allowable limits. FICA taxes must be paid based on total compensation. The Company matches 60 % of participant contributions up to 7 % of gross pay. The Company’s matching contributions were $ 1.2 million and $ 695,000 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Participants are immediately 100 % vested in salary and rollover contributions and any income or loss thereon. Vesting in the matching contributions is based on years of service. Participants vest in contributions made by the Company 20 % after one year of service and another 20 % per year until they become fully vested after five years of service. If a participant is not fully vested on their termination date, the non-vested amount is forfeited. Forfeitures are used to reduce company contributions and/or to pay administrative expenses of the plan.
In connection with the Company’s initial public stock offering, all ESOP shares were converted into registered shares of Northpointe Bancshares, Inc. and moved from the ESOP to the 401k plan. The ESOP held 951,600 shares of the Company’s common stock at December 31, 2024. All shares have been allocated to participants. The fair value to repurchase the shares held at December 31, 2024 was approximately $ 13.7 million.
The Company has a self-insured medical insurance plan covering all of its eligible employees. The Company’s individual excess risk benefit level per employee was $ 185,000 (with no aggregate exposure limitation) at December 31, 2025. Losses in excess of the limitation are covered by reinsurance. Amounts expensed by the Company under the plan were approximately $ 6.6 million and $ 4.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. These expenses were recorded in salaries and employee benefits on the consolidated statement of income. The Company recorded an accrual of approximately $ 389,000 and $ 390,000 at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, for known claims and estimated claims incurred but not reported, reported in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.
Note 14 — Stock Compensation Plans
The Company has utilized three share based compensation plans, which are described below. The stock option plan and stock appreciation rights plan are both legacy plans which the Company has not, and does not intend to, issue any new shares under following its 2024 issuance.
The Company has a stock option plan for its non-employee directors, executive officers and certain employees under which options may be granted at not less than the fair value of the underlying stock on the date of the grant. These options are subject to a vesting schedule under which one-third vests at each anniversary date of the grant. Under the stock option plan, the Company may grant options to its directors for up to 500,000 shares of common stock and up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock to its executive officers and certain employees. No stock option expense was recorded for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
All options granted expire within 10 years of the date of grant, subject to certain cancellation provisions related to an individual’s affiliation with the Company.
The calculated value of each option award was estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option valuation model that uses the weighted average assumptions. Expected volatilities are based on similar volatilities of comparable banks. The Company uses comparable bank data to estimate option exercise and employee termination within the valuation model. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. There were no stock option grants in the years ended December 31, 2025 or 2024.

Outstanding at December 31, 2025 0 $ — NA
Vested at December 31, 2025 0 $ — NA
The total intrinsic value of the options exercised during the year ended December 31, 2025 was approximately $ 264,000 . No options were exercised in 2024. There was no intrinsic value of the options outstanding at December 31, 2025, but was approximately $ 236,000 at December 31, 2024.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, there was no unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the plan.
The Company also has a stock appreciation rights plan for executive officers and certain employees. Stock appreciation rights are primarily granted with a price equal to the market value of common stock on the date of the grant. These awards generally have a five year vesting schedule but may vest early in accordance with accelerated vesting provisions. Compensation expense is recognized over the vesting period of the awards based on the fair value of the stock. For periods prior to the Company’s initial public offering, the Company utilized a third party valuation service for the measurement of fair value of the Company’s stock price as provided for in the Employee Stock Ownership Plan Report.
A summary of stock appreciation right awards for the year ended December 31, 2025 is as follows:
Stock Appreciation Right Awards Number of
Shares Weighted
Average
Exercise
Price
Non-vested at January 1, 2025 545,000 $ 11.00
Granted — —

Forfeited or expired ( 20,000 ) 11.73
Outstanding at December 31, 2025 390,000 $ 11.85
The Company also has a restricted stock award plan which was implemented during 2024, with 4,000,000 shares initially authorized under the plan. Restricted stock awards generally have vesting periods of three years with vesting at the rate of one-third each year. Restricted stock awards granted to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer in connection with the Company’s initial public offering were assigned a five year vesting period. Restricted stock awards have no other performance conditions required for vesting.

Note 14 — Stock Compensation Plans (continued)
A summary of changes in the Company’s nonvested restricted stock awards for the year ended December 31, 2025 follows (dollars in thousands for aggregate intrinsic value):
Nonvested Stock Awards Number of
Shares Weighted Average Grant-Date Fair Value
Outstanding at January 1, 2025 849,530 $ 14.40
Granted 164,000 13.50
Vested ( 246,840 ) 14.40
Forfeited — —
Outstanding at December 31, 2025 766,690 $ 14.21
Compensation expense related to restricted stock awards totaled $ 4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 and is included in salaries and employee benefits in the consolidated statements of income. There was no compensation cost related to restricted stock awards in 2024.
Upon vesting of restricted stock units (“RSU”), the Company is required to withhold applicable federal, state, and local income taxes and the employee’s share of payroll taxes. Unless the employee provides for the payroll tax withholding, the Company generally satisfies these tax withholding obligations by withholding a portion of the shares that would otherwise be issued to the employee upon vesting (a process referred to as "net settlement"). The number of shares withheld is determined based on the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the vesting date and the minimum statutory tax withholding requirements.
The shares withheld for tax withholding are not held as treasury shares but are immediately retired and returned to the status of authorized but unissued shares. As a result, the number of shares issued and outstanding is reduced by the number of shares withheld for tax purposes. The value of the shares withheld is presented as a reduction to additional paid-in capital in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity.
For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company withheld 77,823 shares with an aggregate value of $ 1.4 million to satisfy employee tax withholding obligations upon the vesting of RSUs. The net settlement of RSUs for tax withholding does not impact the total compensation expense recognized for share-based awards.
As of December 31, 2025, there was $ 9.8 million of total remaining compensation expense related to nonvested restricted stock awards granted under the Company’s stock-based compensation plans. This expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.5 years. Restricted stock awards totaling 246,840 shares vested during the year ended December 31, 2025. The intrinsic value of restricted stock awards vested totaled $ 4.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2025. There was no vesting of restricted stock awards during 2024.

Note 15 — Income Taxes (Continued)
The Company and its subsidiary file consolidated tax returns. The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with income tax accounting guidance (ASC 740, Income Taxes). The income tax accounting guidance results in two components of income tax expense: current and deferred. Current income tax expense reflects taxes to be paid or refunded for the current period by applying the provisions of the enacted tax law to the taxable income or excess of deductions over revenues. The Company determines deferred income taxes using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is based on the tax effects of the differences between the book and tax bases of assets and liabilities, and enacted changes in tax rates and laws are recognized in the period in which they occur. Deferred income tax expense results from changes in deferred tax assets and liabilities between periods. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of evidence available, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. Deferred tax assets are included in other assets in the consolidated balance sheets and deferred tax liabilities are included in other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Uncertain tax positions are recognized if it is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, that the tax position will be realized or sustained upon examination. The term more likely than not means a likelihood of more than 50 percent; the terms examined and upon examination also include resolution of the related appeals or litigation processes, if any. A tax position that meets the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold is initially and subsequently measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that has a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. The determination of whether or not a tax position has met the more-likely-than- not recognition threshold considers the facts, circumstances, and information available at the reporting date and is subject to management’s judgment. There were no uncertain tax positions recognized at December 31, 2025 or 2024.
With a few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2022, and state and local income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2022. For federal tax purposes, the Company recognizes interest and penalties on income taxes as a component of income tax expense.
On July 4, 2025, the President signed H.R. 1, the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” into law. The legislation includes several changes to federal tax law that generally allow for more favorable deductibility of certain business expenses beginning in 2025, including the restoration of immediate expensing of domestic R&D expenditures, reinstatement of 100% bonus depreciation, and more favorable rules for determining the limitation on business interest expense. These changes did not have a material impact on the Company’s federal income tax expense or liability for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company does not expect these changes to have a material impact on future periods.

Note 16 — Minimum Regulatory Capital Requirements
The Company and Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the Federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory — and possibly additional discretionary — actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines, the Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company and the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under U.S. GAAP, regulatory reporting requirements and regulatory capital standards. The Company and Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Furthermore, the Company and Bank’s regulators could require adjustments to regulatory capital not reflected in the consolidated financial statements.
Quantitative measures established by regulatory capital standards to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the Bank to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the table below) of total capital, Tier 1 capital (as defined), and common equity Tier 1 capital (as defined) to risk-weighted assets (as defined) and of Tier 1 capital (as defined) to average total assets (as defined). Additionally, to make distributions or discretionary bonus payments, the Company and Bank must maintain a capital conservation buffer of 2.5 % of risk-weighted assets.
Management believes that the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject at December 31, 2025 and 2024. As of the latest balance sheet date, the most recent regulatory notifications categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, the Bank must maintain minimum ratios as set forth in the following table. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the institution’s category.

Note 17 — Restrictions on Dividends, Loans, and Advances
Banking regulations place certain restrictions on dividends paid and loans or advances made by the Bank to the Company. The total amount of dividends which may be paid at any date is generally limited to the retained earnings of the Bank. However, dividends paid by the Bank would be prohibited if the effect thereof would cause the Bank’s capital to be reduced below applicable minimum standards without prior approval from the bank regulators.
Note 18 — Fair Value Measurements
Accounting standards define fair value as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. It also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value.
The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1: Valuation is based upon quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that we have the ability to access as of the measurement date.
Level 2: Valuation is based upon significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be derived from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
Level 3: Valuation is based upon significant unobservable inputs that reflect our own conclusions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.
In instances whereby inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels in the above fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The Company’s assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset.
The Company records the fair values of financial assets and liabilities on a recurring and non-recurring basis using the following methods and assumptions:

Note 18 — Fair Value Measurements (continued)
Equity Securities
Equity securities with readily determinable fair value are reported at fair value. Fair value for these investments is primarily determined using a quoted price in an active market or exchange (Level 1).
Available for Sale Debt Securities
Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified as Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. The Company does not currently have any Level 1 debt securities. If quoted prices are not available, fair values can be estimated using (1) quoted market prices of securities with similar characteristics, (2) matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices, or (3) a discounted cash flow analysis whose significant fair value inputs can generally be verified and do not typically involve judgment by management. Included in the Company’s available for sale debt securities are corporate bonds which are classified as Level 2 assets. The valuation of these corporate bonds is determined using third-party quoted market prices of securities with similar characteristics.
Loans
Certain loans held for sale and HFI are measured at fair value on a recurring basis due to the Company’s election to adopt fair value accounting treatment for those loans originated for which the Company has entered into certain derivative financial instruments as part of its mortgage banking and related risk management activities. These instruments include interest rate lock commitments and mandatory forward commitments to sell these loans to investors known as forward mortgage-backed securities trades. This election allows for a more effective offset of the changes in fair values of the assets and the mortgage related derivative instruments used to economically hedge them without the burden of complying with the requirements for hedge accounting under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Mortgage loans held for sale and certain loans HFI, for which the fair value option was elected, are valued using a market approach by utilizing either: (i) the fair value of securities backed by similar mortgage loans, adjusted for certain factors to approximate the fair value of a whole mortgage loan, including the value attributable to mortgage servicing and credit risk, (ii) current commitments to purchase loans or (iii) recent observable market trades for similar loans, adjusted to credit risk and other individual loan characteristics. As these prices are derived from market observable inputs, the Company classifies these valuations as Level 2 in the fair value disclosures. For mortgage loans held for sale for which the fair value option was elected, the earned current contractual interest payment is recognized in interest income, loan origination costs and fees on fair value option loans are recognized in earnings as incurred and not deferred. The Company has no continuing involvement in any residential mortgage loans sold.
Loans HFI that are measured at fair value are those that initially were intended for sale and then transferred to portfolio. At December 31, 2025, these loans had an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $ 202.6 million and aggregate fair value of $ 178.6 million. At December 31, 2024, these loans had an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $ 203.0 million and aggregate fair value of $ 173.0 million.

Note 18 — Fair Value Measurements (continued)
At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the fair value option was applied to loans that had been transferred from held for sale to portfolio and also to mortgage loans held for sale. The fair value adjustments are reflected in Net Gain on Sale of Loans on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income.
The table below shows the income statement impact for these fair value adjustments for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:
(dollars in thousands) For the Year Ended
December 31,
2025 2024
Loans $ 6,067 $ 10,969
Loans held for sale 4,085 ( 1,402 )
Loans reported at fair value which were over 90 days past due amounted to $ 1.6 million and $ 148,000 in unpaid principal balance with a fair values of $ 1.4 million and $ 145,000 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is delinquent (120 days for mortgages). Non-accrual loans reported at fair value amounted to $ 11.1 million in unpaid principal balance and $ 9.1 million in fair value as of December 31, 2025. Non-accrual loans reported at fair value amounted to $ 10.3 million in unpaid principal balance and $ 8.3 million in fair value as of December 31, 2024.
Interest Rate Lock Commitments
The estimated fair values of interest rate lock commitments utilize current secondary market prices for underlying loans and estimated servicing value with similar coupons, maturity and credit quality, subject to the anticipated loan funding probability (pull-through rate). The fair value of interest rate lock commitments is subject to change primarily due to changes in interest rates and the estimated pull-through rate. Given the significant and unobservable nature of the pull-through factor, interest rate lock commitments are classified as Level 3.
Forward Sales Commitments
Forward mortgage-backed securities trades are exchange-traded or traded within highly active dealer markets. In order to determine the fair value of these instruments, the Company utilized the exchange price or dealer market price for the particular derivative contract; therefore these contracts are classified as Level 2. The estimated fair values are subject to change primarily due to changes in interest rates.
Mortgage Service Rights
MSRs are carried at fair value. Fair value is determined using an income approach with various assumptions including expected cash flows, market discount rates, prepayment speeds, servicing costs, and other factors. As such, MSRs are considered Level 3.
Lender Risk Account
The Company’s LRA is carried at fair value. Fair value is determined using an income approach with various assumptions including expected cash flows, market discount rates, prepayment speeds, expected credit losses and other factors. As such, the LRA is considered Level 3.
Collateral Dependent Loans and Other Real Estate Owned
The fair value of collateral for collateral dependent loans and other real estate owned is generally based upon recent real estate appraisals, less costs to sell. 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 the income approach. As such, the fair values of collateral dependent loans and other real estate owned are classified as Level 3.

Note 18 — Fair Value Measurements (continued)
The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers in and transfers out of Level 1, 2, and 3 fair value classifications as of the actual date of the event of change in circumstances that caused the transfer. On June 30, 2025, the Company transferred debt securities available for sale from Level 3 to Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. As a result, debt securities totaling $ 8.8 million (based on fair value) were reclassified from Level 3 to Level 2 as of June 30, 2025. These securities were previously classified as Level 3, but were moved to Level 2 after further review. The move from Level 3 to Level 2 did not impact the fair value measurement, only the classification of input used to determine that fair value.
Changes in MSRs as well as the related weighted average unobservable inputs are included in Note 5.
The following table presents a reconciliation of the Level 3 available for sale debt securities measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 (dollars in thousands):

Note 18 — Fair Value Measurements (continued)
Both observable and unobservable inputs may be used to determine the fair value of the lender risk account, which is classified as a Level 3 asset. As a result, the unrealized gains for these assets presented in the tables above may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable and unobservable inputs.
The Company estimates the fair value of the LRA using management’s best estimate of key assumptions. These assumptions include prepayment rates, discount rates, and projected annual losses on unpaid principal of the sold loan portfolio. The weighted average of unobservable inputs for these valuation assumptions is as follows as of the dates indicated (dollars in thousands):

The Company also has assets that under certain conditions are subject to measurement at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets include individually evaluated loans and other real estate which are periodically reviewed for impairment and measured at fair value if the fair value of the asset is below the recorded book value. The Company has estimated the fair values of these assets based primarily on Level 3 inputs as described above.
The following asset classes were measured at fair value on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of the dates indicated due to declines in the fair value.

Note 21 — Segment Information
Our reportable segments are Retail Banking and MPP, which have been determined based on management’s focus and internal reporting structure. The MPP segment provides a collateralized mortgage purchase facility marketed to independent mortgage bankers nationwide. The Retail Banking segment provides a vast array of financial products and services to consumers nationwide. These include residential mortgages, AIO equity loans, other consumer loans, and loan servicing, as well as various types of deposit products, including checking, savings and time deposit accounts. The residential mortgage loans we originate are directly originated within our branch network or from our consumer direct business, and are typically underwritten to agency and/or third-party standards, and either sold (servicing retained or released) or held on our balance sheet.
Net interest income in each segment reflects our internal funds transfer pricing (“FTP”) methodology, which is designed to capture interest rate and liquidity risk. Under our methodology, average assets, net of deposits, receive a funding charge based on market interest rates of similar duration liabilities. MPP receives an FTP charge and the residual gain is retained within Retail Banking.
Provision (benefit) for credit losses is allocated to MPP based on the cumulative expected loss rate from the Company’s allowance for credit loss process and applied to any change in period end loan balances.
Financial results are presented, to the extent possible, as if each business operated on a standalone basis, and includes expense allocations for corporate overhead services used by the business segments. Shared corporate overhead expenses reside

in Retail Banking but are allocated back to MPP through our expense allocation based on occupancy rates and percentage of time spent supporting the segment.
Results of the Company’s operating segments are regularly reviewed by the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (the “CODM”), the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. More specifically, the CODM analyzes quarterly financial results, including net income, to assess performance and allocate resources. However, the CODM may use other metrics and ad hoc reports on a limited purpose basis as needed.
In evaluating segment performance, the Company primarily evaluates total revenues (net interest income plus noninterest income) and net income before preferred dividends.
The following tables present the operating segment results for the periods presented below (dollars in thousands):
