ITEM 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data
Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm (PCAOB ID 686 )
Shareholders, Board of Directors and Audit Committee
Texas Community Bancshares, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Mineola, Texas
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition of Texas Community Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2025, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2025, 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 the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the 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 include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2020.

Note 1 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
General
Texas Community Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”), a Maryland corporation and registered bank holding company, was incorporated on March 5, 2021, and became the holding company for Broadstreet Bank, SSB (the “Bank”), formerly known as Mineola Community Bank, SSB prior to December 4, 2023, as part of the mutual to stock conversion of the former Mineola Community Mutual Holding Company (“MHC”), which was completed on July 14, 2021. The Company’s shares trade on the NASDAQ under the symbol TCBS. Voting rights in the Company are held and exercised exclusively by the shareholders of the Company.
The Company’s primary source of revenue is providing loans and banking services to consumers and commercial customers in Mineola, Texas, and the surrounding area and the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex. The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) and to general practices of the banking industry.
Policies and practices which materially affect the determination of financial position, results of operations and cash flows are summarized as follows:
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, which include Broadstreet Bank, SSB and its wholly-owned subsidiary Mineola Financial Service Corporation, which is not actively being utilized. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates
In preparing consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the statements of financial condition and reported amounts of revenues 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.
Significant Group Concentration of Credit Risk
Most of the Company’s activities are with customers located within the Wood, Smith, and Van Zandt County areas and the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex. Note 3 discusses the types of securities in which the Company invests. Note 4 discusses the types of lending in which the Company engages. Approximately 91 % and 93 % of the loan balance at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, is secured by real estate. The Company does not have any other significant concentrations to any one industry or customer.
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740). This update requires public business entities to annually disclose specific categories within the income tax rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a certain quantitative threshold. Additionally, the amendments in this update require entities to disclose certain information about income taxes paid, income tax disaggregation, disclosures around unrecognized tax benefits, and the removal of disclosures related to temporary differences surrounding deferred tax liabilities to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. This update is effective for

Texas Community Bancshares, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
December 31, 2025 and 2024
(Amounts in thousands, except for share and per share data)
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this update prospectively as of January 1, 2025 (see Note 10).
Previously Adopted Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures (“ASU 2023-07”), which expands reportable segment disclosure requirements through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments in this update introduce a new requirement to disclose significant segment expenses regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker, extend certain annual disclosures to interim periods, clarify that single reportable segment entities must apply Topic 280 in its entirety, permit more than one measure of segment profit or loss to be reported under certain conditions and require disclosure of the title and position of the chief operating decision maker. ASU 2023-07 is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. The Company has evaluated the impact of adopting ASU 2023-07 and concluded the impact to be immaterial on its consolidated financial position, results of operations, or disclosures. See Note 1 for the corresponding segments disclosure.
Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In December 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements , which amends ASC Topic 270 to improve the organization and navigability of interim reporting guidance and to clarify when the guidance applies. The ASU compiles existing interim disclosure requirements from across the Codification into Topic 270 and introduces a disclosure principle requiring entities to disclose events that occur after the end of the most recent annual reporting period that have a material effect on the entity. The amendments are not intended to change the fundamental nature of interim reporting or significantly expand or reduce existing interim disclosure requirements.
For public business entities, the amendments are effective for interim reporting periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on its interim financial statement disclosures and does not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income— Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) , which requires public business entities to provide enhanced disclosures in the notes to the financial statements regarding the disaggregation of certain income statement expense captions into specified natural expense categories, including, but not limited to, employee compensation, depreciation, and amortization. The ASU does not change the expense captions presented on the face of the income statement.
For public business entities, the amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this ASU on its financial statement disclosures and related reporting processes. Adoption of this guidance is expected to primarily affect the Company’s disclosure requirements and is not expected to have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For purposes of the consolidated statements of cash flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash, balances due from banks and federal funds sold, all of which mature within ninety days.

December 31, 2025 and 2024
(Amounts in thousands, except for share and per share data)
Balances in transaction accounts at other financial institutions may exceed amounts covered by federal deposit insurance. Management regularly evaluates the credit risk associated with other financial institutions and believes that the Company is not exposed to any significant credit risks on cash and cash equivalents. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had $ 5,209 and $ 9,421 , respectively, that exceeded amounts covered by federal deposit insurance.
Interest Bearing Deposits in Banks
Interest bearing deposits in banks mature within three to six months and are carried at cost.
Debt Securities
Debt securities that management has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as “held to maturity” and recorded at amortized cost. Debt securities not classified as held to maturity are classified as “available for sale” and recorded at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses excluded from earnings and reported in other comprehensive income (loss).
Purchase premiums and discounts are recognized in interest income using the interest method over the terms of the securities.
Held to Maturity Securities
The Company evaluates all securities quarterly to determine if any securities in a loss position require a provision for credit losses in accordance with ASC 326. The Company first assesses whether it intends to sell or it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through net income. For securities that do not meet this criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors.
In making this assessment, the Company considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost, changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded for the credit loss, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost basis. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income (loss). Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded as provision for or (reduction of) provision for credit losses.
Losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectability of a security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met.
For the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company determined no provision for credit losses on securities was necessary.
Restricted Investments Carried at Cost
The Company’s primary restricted investment is Federal Home Loan Bank stock carried at cost ($ 100 per share par value), which approximates its fair value. As a member of the FHLB system, the Company is required to maintain a minimum level of investment in FHLB stock based on specific percentages of its outstanding FHLB advances. The Company may request redemption at par value of any stock in excess of the amount it is required to hold. Stock

redemptions are made at the discretion of FHLB. Due to advance requirements, there were no purchases and dividend reinvestments of $ 155 for the year ended December 31, 2025, and there were no purchases and dividend reinvestments of $ 211 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Both cash and stock dividends are reported as income. There were stock redemptions of $ 1,096 during 2025 and no sales or redemptions during 2024. Additionally, the Company periodically evaluates FHLB stock for impairment. As of December 31, 2025 or 2024, no impairment charges were recorded.
Other restricted investments are carried at cost. Any changes to the cost basis of these investments are recorded in the consolidated statements of operations.
Loans and Leases
The Company grants mortgage, commercial and consumer loans to customers. A substantial portion of the loan portfolio is represented by loans secured by real estate throughout Wood, Smith, and Van Zandt Counties and the Dallas Fort Worth Metroplex area. The ability of the Company’s debtors to honor their contracts is dependent upon the general economic conditions in this area.
Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or pay-off which are measured at historical cost are generally reported at their outstanding unpaid principal balances net of any unearned income, charge-offs, and unamortized deferred fees and costs on originated loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. The deferral of all loan origination fees and origination costs is quantified annually. In 2025 and 2024, management determined the deferral of these fees and costs to be immaterial to the consolidated financial statements. Unearned income is amortized to interest income using a straight-line methodology. Accrued interest receivable on loans totaled $ 1,493 and $ 1,416 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and was reported in accrued interest receivable on the consolidated statement of financial condition and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.
The Company makes disclosures of loans and other financing receivables and the related allowance in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 310, Receivables. The accounting guidance defines a portfolio segment as the level at which an entity develops and documents a systematic methodology to determine the allowance for credit losses, and a class of financing receivables as the level of disaggregation of portfolio segments based on the initial measurement attributes, risk characteristics and methods for assessing risk. The Company’s portfolio segments are real estate, agriculture, commercial, municipalities, and consumer and other. The classes of financing receivables within the real estate segment are Construction and Land, Farmland, 1-4 Residential and Multifamily, and Commercial Real Estate. The remaining portfolio segments contain a single class of financing receivables. Under this accounting guidance, the allowance is presented by portfolio segment.
Allowance for Credit Losses
The Company uses the weighted average remaining maturity (“WARM”) method to estimate expected losses for all of Company’s loan pools. These pools are as follows: construction & land; farmland; 1-4 residential & multi-family real estate; commercial real estate; agriculture; commercial; municipalities; and consumer and other. The loan portfolio pools were selected in order to generally align with the loan categories specified in the quarterly call reports required to be filed with the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council. For each of these loan pools, the Company calculates an average annual loss rate and estimates future outstanding balances based on contractual maturities and estimated prepayments. The modeling of expected prepayment speeds, curtailment rates, and time to recovery are based on historical internal data and peer group data. Relevant data to support the Company’s estimates of lifetime expected credit losses is maintained through internal and external information. The CECL model leverages the use of publicly available call report data, which allows the use of external information from peers to supplement the Company’s own historical data. The loss rate is based on historical loss rates for the peer group and the Company. Due to internal loss rates being

low, a blended historical loss rate of 75% peer group and 25% Company was used. The weighted average remaining life is determined based on contracted loan payments, expected prepayments and maturity dates. The allowance model uses data from the St. Louis Federal Reserve Economic Database for reasonable and supportable forecasts.
Management has determined that between years one and two represents a reasonable and supportable forecast period and reverts to a historical loss rate in years three or four depending on the loan type. Management leverages economic projections from the St. Louis Federal Reserve Economic Database (FRED) to inform its loss driver forecasts. Other internal and external indicators of economic forecasts are also considered by management when developing the forecast metrics.
Allowance for Credit Losses on Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures
The Company estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which the Company is exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless the obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted through credit loss expense . The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its expected life. Estimates are influenced by historical losses, economic conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts described in the preceding section for the allowance for credit losses on loans receivable.
Nonperforming Loans, Charge-Offs and Delinquencies
Nonperforming loans generally include loans that have been placed on nonaccrual status including nonaccrual loans whose contractual terms have been restructured in a manner that grants a concession to a borrower experiencing financial difficulties.
The entire balance of a loan is contractually delinquent if the minimum payment is not received by the specified due date on the customer’s billing statement. Interest and fees continue to accrue on past due loans until the date the loan goes into nonaccrual status, if applicable.
The outstanding balance of real estate secured loans, including all classes of financing receivables within the real estate portfolio segment, that is in excess of the estimated property value, less estimated costs to sell, is generally charged off no later than the end of the month in which the account becomes 180 days past due. The estimated property value, less estimated costs to sell, is determined utilizing appraisals or broker price opinions of the fair value of the collateral.
The outstanding balance of loans within the remaining loan segments (agriculture, commercial, and consumer and other) are generally charged off no later than the end of the month in which the account becomes 120 days past due. For secured loans, accounts are written down to the collateral value.
The fair value of the collateral is estimated by management based on current financial information, inspections, and appraisals. For unsecured loans, the outstanding balance is written off.
Loans within all portfolio segments are generally placed on nonaccrual status and classified as nonperforming at 90 days past due.
Accrued interest receivable is reversed when a loan is placed on nonaccrual status. Interest collections on non-accruing loans for which the ultimate collectability of principal is uncertain are applied as principal reductions; otherwise, such collections are credited to interest income when received. These loans may be restored to accrual status when all principal and interest is current and full repayment of the remaining contractual principal and interest is expected, or

when the loan otherwise becomes well-secured and is in the process of collection.
Wholesale Lending
The Company has entered into a wholesale lending agreement with a wholesale lender and correspondent bank, TIB. The Company facilitates the loan application process and interacts with the customer while the wholesale lender underwrites, funds, closes and services the loan. The Company receives a fee from the wholesale lender at closing for the services provided which is included in noninterest income.
Financial Instruments
In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into commitments to extend credit, including commercial letters of credit and standby letters of credit. Such financial instruments are recorded when they are funded.
Derivative Loan Commitments
Mortgage loan commitments that relate to the origination of a mortgage that will be held for sale upon funding are considered derivative instruments under the derivatives and hedging accounting guidance (FASB ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging). Loan commitments that are derivatives are recognized at fair value on the consolidated statements of financial condition in other assets and other liabilities with changes in their fair values recorded in noninterest income.
Forward Loan Sale Commitments
The Company evaluates all loan sales agreements to determine whether they meet the definition of a derivative under FASB ASC 815 as facts and circumstances may differ significantly. If agreements qualify, to protect against the price risk inherent in derivative loan commitments, the Company uses "best efforts" forward loan sale commitments to mitigate the risk of potential decreases in the values of loans that would result from the exercise of the derivative loan commitments. Accordingly, forward loan sale commitments are recognized at fair value on the consolidated statements of financial condition in other assets and liabilities with changes in their fair values recorded in other noninterest income.
The Company estimates the fair value of its forward loan sales commitments using a methodology similar to that used for derivative loan commitments.
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 – put presumptively beyond the reach of the transferor and its creditors, even in bankruptcy or other receivership, (2) the transferee obtains the right (free of conditions that constrain it from taking advantage of that right) to pledge or exchange the transferred assets, and (3) the Company does not maintain effective control over the transferred assets through an agreement to repurchase them before their maturity or the ability to unilaterally cause the holder to return specific assets.
Cash Surrender Value of Bank-owned Life Insurance
Life insurance policies are initially recorded at cost at the date of purchase. Subsequent to purchase, the policies are periodically adjusted for changes in cash surrender value. The adjustment to cash surrender value increases or decreases the carrying value of the policies and is recorded as income or expense on the consolidated statements of operations.

Other Real Estate Owned
Assets acquired through, or in lieu of, loan foreclosure are initially recorded at fair value less estimated costs to sell at the date of foreclosure. All write-downs based on the asset’s fair value at the date of acquisition are charged to the allowance for credit losses. After foreclosure, property held for sale is carried at the lower of the new cost basis or estimated fair value less costs to sell.
Impairment losses on property to be held and used are measured at the amount by which the carrying amount of a property exceeds its fair value. Costs of significant property improvements are capitalized, whereas costs related to holding property are expensed. Valuations are periodically performed by management, and any subsequent write-downs are recorded as a charge to earnings, if necessary, to reduce the carrying value of the property to the lower of its cost or fair value less costs to sell.
Premises and Equipment
Land is carried at cost. Buildings and equipment are carried at cost, less accumulated depreciation computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets or the expected terms of the leases, if shorter. Buildings and related components are depreciated using the straight-line method with useful lives ranging from 7 to 40 years . Furniture, fixtures and equipment are depreciated using the straight-line or accelerated method with useful lives ranging from 3 to 20 years .
Leases
Leases are classified as operating or finance leases at the lease commencement date. The Company leases certain locations and equipment. The Company records leases on the consolidated statements of financial condition in the form of a lease liability for the present value of future minimum payments under the lease terms and a right-of-use asset equal to the lease liability adjusted for items such as deferred or prepaid rent, lease incentives, and any impairment of the right-of-use asset. The discount rate used in determining the lease liability is based upon incremental borrowing rates the Company could obtain for similar loans as of the date of commencement or renewal. The Company does not record leases on the consolidated statements of financial condition that are classified as short term (less than one year).
At lease inception, the Company determines the lease term by considering the minimum lease term and all optional renewal periods that the Company is reasonably certain to renew. The lease term is also used to calculate straight-line rent expense. The depreciable life of leasehold improvements is limited by the estimated lease term, including renewals if they are reasonably certain to be renewed. The Company’s leases do not contain residual value guarantees or material variable lease payments that will impact the Company's ability to pay dividends or cause the Company to incur additional expenses.
Operating lease expense consists of a single lease cost allocated over the remaining lease term on a straight-line basis, variable lease payments not included in the lease liability, and any impairment of the right-of-use asset. Rent expense and variable lease expense are included in occupancy and equipment expense on the Company's consolidated statements of operations.
The Company has elected to treat property leases that include both lease and non-lease components as a single component and account for it as a lease.

Mortgage Servicing Rights
Mortgage servicing rights are recognized as separate assets when rights are acquired through purchase or through sale of financial assets. Mortgage servicing rights are capitalized and amortized into income in proportion to, and over the period of, the estimated future net servicing income of the underlying financial assets. Mortgage servicing rights are evaluated for impairment based upon the fair value of the rights as compared to amortized cost. Impairment is determined by stratifying rights by predominant characteristics, such as interest rates and terms. Fair value is determined by using prices for similar assets with similar characteristics, when available, or based upon discounted cash flows using market-based assumptions. Impairment is recognized through a valuation allowance for an individual stratum, to the extent that fair value is less than the capitalized amount for the stratum.
Intangible Assets
Intangible assets with a finite life consisted of a core deposit intangible that was carried at cost less accumulated amortization. The Company amortized the cost of the identifiable intangible asset on a straight-line basis over the expected period of benefit, which was seven years . At December 31, 2025, the Company had fully amortized the core deposit intangible.
Income Taxes
The Company’s income tax expense consists of the following components: 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 rate 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 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. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of evidence available, it is more likely than not some portion or all of a deferred tax asset will not be realized. The Company recognizes interest accrued on and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in tax expense.
During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recognized no interest and penalties. Based on management’s analysis, the Company did no t have any uncertain tax positions at December 31, 2025 and 2024.
The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and the State of Texas.
Treasury Stock
Treasury stock is accounted for using the cost method and consists of 479,241 and 282,273 shares at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Operating Segments
While the chief decision-makers monitor the revenue streams of the various products and services, operations are managed, and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Discrete operating results are not reviewed by senior management to make resource allocation or performance decisions. Accordingly, all of the financial service operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment.
Segment Information
The Company’s chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) is the Chief Executive Officer. Operating segments are defined as components of a business about which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the CODM in deciding how to allocate resources and assess performance. While the CODM monitors the revenue streams of the various products and services offered by the Bank, the Company’s operations are managed and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis as a single reportable operating segment, which is the Bank.
Discrete financial information, with a full allocation of revenue, costs, and capital from key corporate functions, is not available at a level other than on a Company-wide basis. Although the CODM has some limited financial information about the Company’s various financial products and services, this information is not complete and is insufficient for making resource allocation decisions or performance assessments at a more granular level. Therefore, management considers all financial service operations to be aggregated within one reportable operating segment, the Bank, and evaluates financial performance on a company-wide basis using net income as reported on the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The measure of segment assets is total assets, as reported on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The CODM uses net income to monitor budget versus actual results and in the determination of allocating resources across the Company.
The Company’s single reportable segment, the Bank, generates revenues primarily from interest income from financial instruments and non-interest income and service charges on deposit accounts. There are no intra-entity sales or transfers within the Company. Management continues to evaluate the Company’s business units for potential separate reporting in the future as facts and circumstances evolve.
Revenue Policies
FASB ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (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 foreclosed assets. The majority of the Company’s revenues come from interest income and other sources, including loans, leases, and securities, that are outside the scope of Topic 606. The Company’s services that fall within the scope of Topic 606 are presented within Non-Interest Income and are recognized as revenue as the Company satisfies its obligation to the customer. Services within the scope of Topic 606 include service charges on deposits, interchange income, and the gain (loss) on the sale of foreclosed assets.

(Amounts in thousands, except for share and per share data)
A description of the Company’s revenue streams accounted for under Topic 606 follows:
Service Charges on Deposit Accounts: The Company earns fees from its deposit customers for transaction-based, account-maintenance, and overdraft services. Transaction-based fees, which include services such as ATM use fees, stop payment charges, statement rendering, and ACH fees, are recognized at the time the transaction is executed as that is the point in time the Company fulfills the customer’s request. Account maintenance fees, which relate primarily to monthly maintenance, are earned over the course of a month, representing the period over which the Company satisfies the performance obligation. Overdraft fees are recognized at the point in time that the overdraft occurs. Service charges on deposits are withdrawn from the customer’s account balance.
Interchange Income: The Company earns interchange fees from debit/credit cardholder transactions conducted through the Visa/MasterCard/Other payment network. Interchange fees from cardholder transactions represent a percentage of the underlying transaction value and are recognized daily, concurrently with the transaction processing services provided to the cardholder.
Gains (Losses) on Sales of Other Real Estate Owned: The Company records a gain or loss from the sale of other real estate owned when control of the property transfers to the buyer, which generally occurs at the time of an executed deed. When the Company finances the sale of a other real estate owned to the buyer, the Company assesses whether the buyer is committed to perform their obligations under the contract and whether collectability of the transaction price is probable. Once these criteria are met, the other real estate owned is derecognized and the gain or loss on sale is recorded upon the transfer of control of the property to the buyer. In determining the gain or loss on the sale, the Company adjusts the transaction price and related gain (loss) on sale if a significant financing component is present.
Deriva tives
At the inception of a derivative contract, the Company designates the derivatives as one of the three types based on the Company’s intentions and belief as to likely effectiveness as a hedge. These three types are (1) a hedge of the fair value of a recognized asset or liability or of an unrecognized firm commitment (“fair value hedge”), (2) a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (“cash flow hedge”), or (3) an instrument with no hedging designation (“stand-alone derivative”). For a fair value hedge, the gain or loss on the derivate, as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk, are recognized in current earnings as fair values change. For a cash flow hedge, the gain or loss on the derivative is reported in other comprehensive income (loss) and is reclassified into earnings in the same periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated or that do not qualify for hedge accounting are reported currently in earnings, as non-interest income.
Accrued settlements on derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting are recorded in interest income or interest expense, based on the item being hedged. Accrued settlements on derivatives not designated or that do not qualify for hedge accounting are reported in non-interest income. Cash flows on hedges are classified in the cash flow statement the same as the cash flows of the items being hedged.
The Company formally documents the relationship between derivatives and hedged items, as well as the risk-management objective and the strategy for undertaking hedge transactions at the inception of the hedging relationship. This documentation includes linking fair value or cash flow hedges to specific assets and liabilities on the statement of financial condition or to specific firm commitments or forecasted transactions. The Company also formally assesses, both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative instruments that are used are highly effective in offsetting changes in fair values or cash flows of the hedged items. The Company discontinues hedge accounting when it determines that the derivative is no longer effective in offsetting changes in the fair value or cash

flows of the hedged item, the derivative is settled or terminates, a hedged forecasted transaction is no longer probable, a hedged firm commitment is no longer firm, or treatment of the derivative as a hedge is no longer appropriate or intended.
When hedge accounting is discontinued, subsequent changes in fair value of the derivative are recorded as non-interest income. When a fair value hedge is discontinued, the hedged asset or liability is no longer adjusted for changes in fair value and the existing basis adjustment is amortized or accreted over the remaining life of the asset or liability. When a cash flow hedge is discontinued but the hedged cash flows or forecasted transactions are still expected to occur, gains or losses that were accumulated in other comprehensive income (loss) are amortized into earnings over the same periods which the hedged transactions will affect earnings.
The Company would be exposed to losses if a counterparty fails to make its payments under a contract in which the Company is in the net receiving position. The Company anticipates that the counterparties would be able to fully satisfy their obligations under the agreements.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Comprehensive income (loss) consists of net income (loss) and other comprehensive income (loss). Other comprehensive income (loss) includes unrealized gains (losses) on securities available-for-sale.
Stock Incentive Plan
Compensation cost is recognized for stock options and restricted stock awards issued to directors, executive management, and other officers based on the fair value of these awards at the date of the grant. A Black-Scholes model is utilized to estimate the fair value of stock options, while the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of the grant is used for restricted stock awards.
Compensation cost is recognized over the required service period, generally defined as the vesting period. For awards with graded vesting, compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassification s of amounts previously reported have been made to the accompanying financial statements to maintain consistency between periods presented. The reclassifications had no impact on net income or shareholders' equity.
Revision of Prior-Period Comparative Financial Statements
Certain disclosures in the 2024 comparative consolidated financial statements have been revised to correct for misstatements that were not material to the previously issued 2024 financial statements. The revisions relate to the presentation of certain disclosures and do not impact previously reported total assets, total liabilities, total shareholder’s equity, or net income for the year ended December 31, 2024. The specific revisions are as follows:
● Related Party Loans: The balance of loans to related parties as of December 31, 2024, was revised from $2,987 to $3,978 in Note 15 Related Party Transactions.
● Related Party Deposits: The balance of deposits to related parties as of December 31, 2024, was revised from $4,052 to $6,212 in Note 15 Related Party Transactions.

Note 2 - Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the net income or loss by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including allocated and committed-to-be-released ESOP shares and vested restricted stock awards. Diluted earnings per share is computed using the weighted-average number of shares determined for the basic earnings per common share computation plus the dilutive effect of stock compensation using the treasury stock method.

Mortgage-backed Securities and Collateralized Mortgage Obligations
The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations were caused by market interest rate increases and changes in prepayment speeds and not credit quality. It is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost basis of the Company’s investments because the Company does not intend to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, which may be maturity. The unrealized losses on the Company’s investment in mortgage-backed securities have not been recognized into income and no allowance for credit losses was established at December 31, 2025 and 2024.
U.S. Government and Agency
The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in U.S. government and agency securities have not been recognized into income and no allowance for credit losses was established because the bonds are of high credit quality, management does not intend to sell, and it is likely that management will not be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery, which may be at maturity. The decline in fair value is largely due to increases in market interest rates and not credit quality deterioration and the fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach maturity. Accordingly, it is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost basis of the Company’s investments. Therefore, an allowance for credit losses is deemed unnecessary at December 31, 2025 and 2024.
Municipal Securities and Corporate Bonds
The unrealized losses on the Company’s investments in state and municipal securities and corporate bonds have not been recognized into income and no allowance for credit losses was established because the bonds are of high credit quality, management does not intend to sell, and it is likely that management will not be required to sell the securities prior to their anticipated recovery, which may be at maturity. The decline in fair value is largely due to increases in market interest rates and not credit quality deterioration and the fair value is expected to recover as the bonds approach maturity. Accordingly, it is expected that the securities would not be settled at a price less than the amortized cost basis of the

The Company had $ 2,135 and $ 2,260 in collateral-dependent loans as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Internal Risk Categories
A loan is considered collateral-dependent when based on current information and events; it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due from the borrower in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan. Impaired loans include nonperforming loans (nonaccrual loans), loans performing but with deterioration that leads to doubt regarding collectability.
Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. For collateral-dependent loans where the Company has determined that foreclosure of the collateral is probable, or where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the Company expects repayment of the financial asset to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the allowance for credit losses is measured based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the amortized cost basis of the loan as of the measurement date. When repayment is expected to be from the operation of the collateral, expected credit losses are calculated as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the loan exceeds the present value of expected cash flows from the operation of the collateral. When repayment is expected to be from the sale of the collateral, expected credit losses are calculated as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the loan exceeds the fair value of the underlying collateral less estimated costs to sell. The allowance for credit losses may be zero if the fair value of the collateral at the measurement date exceeds the amortized cost basis of the loan.

(Amounts in thousands, except for share and per share data)
The Company monitors credit quality within its portfolio segments based on primary credit quality indicators. All of the Company’s loans and leases are evaluated using pass rated or reservable criticized as the primary credit quality indicator. The term reservable criticized refers to those loans and leases that are internally classified or listed by the Company as special mention, substandard, doubtful or loss. These assets pose an elevated risk and may have a high probability of default or total loss.
The classifications of loans and leases reflect a judgment about the risks of default and loss associated with the loan. The Company reviews the ratings on credits quarterly. Ratings are adjusted to reflect the degree of risk and loss that is felt to be inherent in each credit as of each quarterly reporting period.
The methodology is structured so that specific allocations are increased in accordance with deterioration in credit quality (and a corresponding increase in risk and loss) or decreased in accordance with improvement in credit quality (and a corresponding decrease in risk and loss).
Credits rated special mention show clear signs of financial weaknesses or deterioration in credit worthiness; however, such concerns are not so pronounced that the Company generally expects to experience significant loss within the short-term. Such credits typically maintain the ability to perform within standard credit terms and credit exposure is not as prominent as credits rated more harshly.
Credits rated substandard are those in which the normal repayment of principal and interest may be, or has been, jeopardized by reason of adverse trends or developments of a financial, managerial, economic or political nature, or important weaknesses exist in collateral. A protracted workout on these credits is a distinct possibility. Prompt corrective action is therefore required to strengthen the Company’s position, and/or to reduce exposure and to assure that adequate remedial measures are taken by the borrower. Credit exposure becomes more likely in such credits and a serious evaluation of the secondary support to the credit is performed.
Credits rated doubtful are those in which full collection of principal appears highly questionable, and which some degree of loss is anticipated, even though the ultimate amount of loss may not yet be certain and/or other factors exist which could affect collection of debt. Based upon available information, positive action by the Company is required to avert or minimize loss. Credits with this classification have often become collateral dependent and any shortage in collateral or other likely loss amount is recorded as a specific valuation allowance. Credits rated doubtful are generally also placed on nonaccrual.
Credits rated loss are those that are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather that it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off this basically worthless asset even though partial recovery may be affected in the future.
Pass rated refers to loans that are not considered criticized. In addition to this primary credit quality indicator, the Company uses other credit quality indicators for certain types of loans.
The Company evaluates the loan risk grading system definitions and allowance for credit loss methodology on an ongoing basis. No significant changes were made during the year ended December 31, 2025.
Certain loan segments were reclassified during the year ended December 31, 2024. Each loan segment is made up of loan categories with similar risk characteristics. The Company’s realignment of the segments primarily consisted of separately presenting municipality loans from the consumer and other category. Management believes this accurately represents the risk profile of each loan segment. These reclassifications did not have a significant impact on the allowance for credit losses.

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 the 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. No interest income was recognized for loans on nonaccrual status for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
The following table presents interest income recognized on loans that are collateral-dependent and individually reviewed for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024:

Note 7 – Leases
The Company leases certain office facilities and equipment for various terms under long-term, non-cancelable operating lease agreements. The leases expire at various dates through 2030 and provide for renewal options ranging from 1 year to 5 years . The Company included in the determination of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities any renewal options when the options are reasonably certain to be exercised. The leases provide for increases in future minimum annual rental payments based on defined increases in the Consumer Price Index, subject to certain minimum increases. Also, the agreements generally require the Company to pay real estate taxes, insurance, and repairs.
The weighted-average discount rate is based on the discount rate implicit in the lease, or if the implicit rate is not readily determinable from the lease, then the Company estimates an applicable incremental borrowing rate. The incremental borrowing rate is estimated using the Company’s applicable borrowing rates and the contractual lease term.
Total right-of-use assets and lease liabilities at December 31, 2025 and 2024, were as follows:

No valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was recorded as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, as management believes the amounts representing future deferred tax benefits will more likely than not be recognized since the Company is expected to have sufficient taxable income of an appropriate character within the carryback and carryforward periods as permitted by the tax law to allow for utilization of the future deductible amounts.
Retained earnings at December 31, 2025 and 2024, includes $ 2,663 for which no deferred federal income tax liability has been recognized. This amount represents an allocation of income to bad debt deductions for tax purposes only. Reduction of amounts so allocated for purposes other than tax bad debt losses or adjustments arising from carryback of net operating losses would create income for tax purposes only, which would be subject to the current corporate income tax rate. The unrecorded deferred income tax liability on the above amount was $ 559 at December 31, 2025 and 2024.

Note 11 - Off-Balance-Sheet Activities
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 and standby 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 statements of financial condition. 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:
Contract Amount
December 31, 2025
December 31, 2024
Commitments to extend credit
$
35,666
$
17,954
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.
The Company is party to an agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston that provides the Company with a federal funds line of credit in an amount tied to securities on deposit with that bank. The Company pays no fees for this line of credit and has not drawn upon it. The Company is party to agreements with its correspondent banks that provide the Company with unsecured lines for up to $ 8,000 federal funds lines of credit to support overnight funding needs. The Company pays no fees for the lines of credit and has not drawn upon them. One line renews annually and the other line is in effect until either party changes the terms of the agreement.
At December 31, 2025, the Company had no commitments to purchase securities.
The Company has no other off-balance-sheet arrangements or transactions with unconsolidated, special purpose entities that would expose the Company to liability that is not reflected on the face of the consolidated statements of financial condition.
Note 12 - 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 Benefit Plan
The Company sponsors a defined contribution 401(k) retirement plan covering substantially all of its employees. The plan provides for the Company to match employees’ contributions up to five percent of an employee’s annual salary. In addition, the Company offers a profit-sharing component to the 401(k) plan under which the Company may contribute an equal amount to the account of each employee. The amount of the profit-sharing contribution is discretionary and determined annually by the board of directors. The employees are 100 % vested after six years of service. Prior to full vesting, the employees are vested from 20 % to 80 % depending on the length of service. The Company’s contributions for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 were $ 192 and $ 181 , respectively.
The Company has a deferred compensation plan with a former member of its board of directors that permits that director to defer a portion of his compensation and earn a guaranteed interest rate on the deferred amounts. The portion of the former director’s compensation that is deferred has been accrued and the only other expense related to this plan is the interest on the deferred amounts. Interest expense during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, included $ 8 and $ 9 , respectively, related to this plan. The Company has included $ 156 and $ 166 of deferred compensation payable at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities.
To fund this plan, the Company has purchased a corporate-owned whole-life insurance contract on the former director. The Company has included $ 135 and $ 130 in bank-owned life insurance at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, which represents the cash surrender value of this policy.
The Company adopted a deferred compensation incentive plan in January 2013. The plan provided for an individually agreed upon percentage of net income for the plan year to be deferred and vested over five years . The deferred compensation earned interest over the vesting period. The vested benefit was to be paid within 90 days of the end of each plan year. The plan was terminated on December 31, 2023, and was accelerated to fully vest all participants on December 31, 2023. The benefits totaling $ 435 that had not been previously deferred and deferrals from prior years totaling $ 561 were paid out on February 10, 2025. The only expense related to the plan after termination was interest expense on the balance being held in the plan until the designated pay date. The Company recorded compensation expense related to this program in the amount of $ 5 and $ 46 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. An accrual of $ 0 and $ 1,042 for December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, is included in accrued expenses and other liabilities.
To partially fund benefit plans, Broadstreet Bank maintains the Broadstreet Bank Split Dollar Life Insurance Plan, which consists of thirteen life insurance policies on six current, three retired officers and four former officers. The executive has the right to designate a beneficiary who will receive his or her share of the net death benefit payable upon his or her death if the employment conditions of the plan have been met. The policies are owned by Broadstreet Bank, which paid the premium due on the policies. Under the plan, the insured beneficiary will receive an agreed upon amount and Broadstreet Bank is entitled to the remaining death benefit or the entire death benefit in cases where plan employment conditions were not met. The Company has included $ 6,409 and $ 6,240 in bank-owned life insurance on bank officers at December 31, 2025 and 2024, which represents the cash surrender value of the policies.

Note 14 - Employee Stock Ownership Plan
In connection with the Conversion, the Company established an ESOP for the exclusive benefit of eligible employees. The ESOP borrowed funds from the Company in an amount sufficient to purchase 260,621 shares (approximately 8.0 % of the common stock issued in connection with the Conversion). The loan is secured by unallocated shares and will be repaid by the ESOP with funds from contributions made by the Company and dividends received by the ESOP. Contributions will be applied to repay interest on the loan first, and then the remainder will be applied to principal. The loan is expected to be repaid over a period of up to 20 years .
Shares purchased with the loan proceeds are held in a suspense account for allocation among participants as the loan is repaid. Contributions to the ESOP and shares released from the suspense account are allocated among participants in proportion to their compensation. Participants will vest in their accrued benefits determined by the years of service for vesting purposes. Vesting is accelerated upon retirement, death or disability of the participant, or a change in control of the Company or the Bank. Forfeitures will be reallocated to remaining participants. Benefits may be payable upon retirement, death, disability, separation of service, or termination of the ESOP.
The debt of the ESOP is eliminated in consolidation. Contributions to the ESOP will be sufficient to pay principal and interest currently due under the loan agreement. As shares are committed to be released from collateral, the Company reports the compensation expense equal to the average market price of the shares for the respective period, and the shares become outstanding for earnings per share computations. Dividends on unallocated ESOP shares, if any, are recorded as a reduction of debt and accrued interest. ESOP compensation expense was $ 253 and $ 223 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Note 15 - Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has one equity incentive plan with two share-based compensation awards as described below. Total compensation cost that has been charged against income for those plans was $ 607 and $ 757 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Stock Option Awards
The Company’s 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the Equity Plan), which was approved by shareholders, permits the grant of stock options to its directors, executive officers and other officers for up to 325,775 shares of common stock. Stock option awards are generally granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s common stock at the date of grant; those option awards have vesting periods of five years and have 10-year contractual terms. The Company has a policy of using shares held as treasury stock to satisfy share option exercises.
The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a closed form option valuation (Black-Scholes) model that uses the assumptions determined by management. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of the Company’s common stock. The Company uses historical data when available to estimate option exercise

and post-vesting termination behavior. Due to lack of historical data, the Company estimated the expected term of options granted is 7.5 years. This represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding, which takes into account that the options are not transferable. The Company’s accounting policy is to recognize forfeitures as they occur. The risk-free interest rate for the expected term of the options is based on the 7-year U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grants.
On August 31, 2022, the non-employee directors of the Company were granted 97,728 stock options with a cost of $ 6.50 per option and an exercise price of $ 16.00 . These options will vest annually over a five year period ending August 31, 2027 and will expire on August 31, 2032. During the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, 14,661 and 8,144 of these options were forfeited or expired, respectively.
On February 28, 2023, the executive officers of the Company were granted 192,204 stock options with a cost of $ 6.14 per option and an exercise price of $ 15.67 . These options will vest annually over a five year period ending February 28, 2028 and will expire on February 28, 2033. During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, 22,477 and 24,758 , of these options were forfeited or expired, respectively.
On February 28, 2024, an executive officer of the Company was granted 58,639 stock options with a cost of $ 6.41 per option and an exercise price of $ 13.75 . The Company accelerated the first vesting period to vest 20 % of the awards at grant date and the remaining awards will vest in four equal annual installments through February 28, 2028, and will expire on February 28, 2033.
On August 30, 2024, certain officers of the Company were granted 19,030 stock options with a cost of $ 6.27 per option and an exercise price of $ 14.31 . These options will vest annually over a five year period ending August 31, 2029, and will expire on August 31, 2034.
Compensation expense for the stock options for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, was $ 296 and $ 377 , respectively.
There were no additional grants during the year ended December 31, 2025.
The fair value of options granted during the year ended December 31, 2024, was determined using the following weighted-average assumptions as of grant date.

Note 18 - Minimum Regulatory Capital Requirements
The Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgements by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.
The Bank has opted into the Community Bank Leverage Ratio (CBLR) framework, beginning with the Call Report filed for the first quarter of 2020. At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Bank’s CBLR ratio was 11.74 % and 10.84 %, respectively, which exceeded all regulatory capital requirements under the CBLR framework and the Bank was considered to be “well-capitalized.”
Under the CBLR framework, banks and their bank holding companies that have less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets and meet other qualifying criteria, including a leverage ratio (equal to tier 1 capital divided by average total consolidated assets) of greater than 9%, are eligible to opt into the CBLR framework. Qualifying community banking organizations that elect to use the CBLR framework and that maintain a leverage ratio of greater than 9% are considered to have satisfied the generally applicable risk-based and leverage capital requirements in the agencies’ capital rules (generally applicable capital rules) and, if applicable, are considered to have met the well-capitalized ratio requirements for purposes of section 38 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. Accordingly, a qualifying community banking organization that exceeds the 9% CBLR is considered to have met: (i) the generally applicable risk-based and leverage capital requirements of the generally applicable capital rules; (ii) the capital ratio requirements in order to be considered well-capitalized under the prompt corrective action framework; (iii) any other applicable capital or leverage requirements. A qualifying community banking organization that elects to be under the CBLR framework generally would be exempt from the current capital framework, including risk-based capital requirements and capital conservation buffer requirements.

Note 19 - Fair Value Measurements
Authoritative guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. A fair value measurement assumes that the transaction to sell the asset or transfer the liability occurs in the principal market for the asset or liability or, in the absence of a principal market, the most advantageous market for the asset or liability. The price in the principal (or most advantageous) market used to measure the fair value of the asset or liability shall not be adjusted for transaction costs. An orderly transaction is a transaction that assumes exposure to the market for a period prior to the measurement date to allow for marketing activities that are usual and customary for transactions involving such assets and liabilities; it is not a forced transaction. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal market that are (i) independent, (ii) knowledgeable, (iii) able to transact and (iv) willing to transact.
Authoritative guidance requires the use of valuation techniques that are consistent with the market approach, the income approach and/or the cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets and liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts, such as cash flows or earnings, to a single present amount on a discounted basis. The cost approach is based on the amount that currently would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset (replacement costs). Valuation techniques should be consistently applied. Inputs to valuation techniques refer to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Inputs may be observable, meaning those that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from independent sources, or unobservable, meaning those that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. In that regard, authoritative guidance establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.
The fair value hierarchy is as follows:
● Level 1 Inputs - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
● Level 2 Inputs - Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include 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, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (for example, interest rates, volatilities, prepayment speeds, loss severities, credit risks and default rates) or inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.
● Level 3 Inputs - Significant unobservable inputs that reflect an entity ’ s own assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the assets or liabilities.
A description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of such instruments pursuant to the valuation hierarchy, is set forth below. There have been no changes in valuation techniques during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.
In general, fair value is based upon quoted market prices, where available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that primarily use, as inputs, observable market- based parameters. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value. While management

(Amounts in thousands, except for share and per share data)
believes the Company’s valuation methodologies are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting date.
Available for Sale Securities - Securities classified as available for sale are reported at fair value utilizing Level 2 inputs. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U. S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayments speeds, credit information and the bond’s terms and conditions, among other things.
Derivative Instruments – The Company records derivative instruments at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company utilizes derivative instruments as part of the management of interest rate risk to modify the repricing characteristics of certain portions of the Company’s interest-bearing assets and liabilities.
The Company has contracted with a third-party vendor to provide valuations for derivatives using standard valuation techniques and therefore classifies such valuations as Level 2. Third-party valuations are validated by the Company using Bloomberg Valuation Service’s derivative pricing functions.
Collateral-dependent Loans – Collateral-dependent loans are reported at the fair value of the underlying collateral if repayment is expected solely from the collateral. Collateral values are estimated using Level 3 inputs based on internally customized discounting criteria.
Other real estate owned – Fair values are valued at the time the loan is foreclosed upon and the asset is transferred from loans or when the asset is transferred into other real estate owned from premises and equipment. The value is based upon primarily third-party appraisals, less estimated costs to sell. The appraisals are generally discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and the client’s business. Such discounts are typically significant and result in Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Other real estate owned is reviewed and evaluated on at least a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted accordingly, based on the same or similar factors above.
The following table summarizes financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value:

During the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, certain collateral-dependent loans were remeasured and reported at fair value through a specific allocation of the allowance for credit losses based upon the fair value of the underlying collateral. At December 31, 2025, collateral-dependent loans with a carrying value of $ 933 were reduced by specific valuation allowance allocations totaling $ 279 to a reported fair value of $ 654 . At December 31, 2024, collateral-dependent loans with a carrying value of $ 1,140 were reduced by a specific valuation allowance allocations totaling $ 279 to a reported fair value of $ 861 . The fair value of collateral-dependent loans is determined based on collateral valuations utilizing Level 3 valuation inputs.
At December 31, 2025, the Company had other real estate owned consisting of one small bank property that was purchased for future expansion, one multi-family property acquired through foreclosure and two land development projects belonging to one customer that were transferred through deeds in lieu of foreclosure. The reported fair value

includes a deduction for estimated costs to sell and all properties are currently listed for sale. At December 31, 2024, the Company had other real estate owned consisting of two bank properties that were purchased for future expansion but then listed for sale.
The estimated fair value amounts of other real estate owned have been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required to interpret data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating fair value disclosures for financial instruments:
Cash and cash equivalents and interest-bearing deposits in banks – The carrying value approximates their fair values.
Securities held to maturity – Fair values for investment securities are based on quoted market prices or whose value is determined using discounted cash flow methodologies.
Loans and net investment in direct financing leases – The fair values for loans are estimated using discounted cash flow analyses, using interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms and credit quality.
Accrued interest receivable – The carrying value approximates its fair value.

(Amounts in thousands, except for share and per share data)
Restricted investments carried at cost – The carrying value of these investments approximates fair value based on the redemption provisions contained in each.
Mortgage servicing rights – Fair values are estimated using discounted cash flows based on current market rates of interest.
Deposits – The fair values disclosed for demand deposits (for example, interest and noninterest checking, passbook savings, and certain types of money market accounts) are, by definition, equal to the amount payable on demand at the reporting date (that is, their carrying amounts). The carrying amounts of variable-rate, fixed- term money market accounts and certificates of deposit approximate their fair values at the reporting date. Fair values for fixed-rate certificates of deposit are estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies market interest rates on comparable instruments to a schedule of aggregated expected monthly maturities on time deposits.
FHLB advances – Current market rates for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities are used to estimate fair value of existing debt.
Accrued interest payable – The carrying value approximates the fair value.
Note 20 – Derivatives
The Company is exposed to economic risks arising from its business operations and uses derivatives primarily to manage risk associated with changing interest rates. The Company designates certain derivatives as hedging instruments in a qualifying hedge accounting relationship (cash flow or fair value hedge).
Fair Value Hedges – Derivatives are designated as fair value hedges when they are used to manage exposure to changes in the fair value of certain financial assets and liabilities, referred to as the hedged items, which fluctuate in value as a result of movements in interest rates.
Securities available for sale – During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company had a swap agreement to hedge the interest rate risk on a portion of its fixed rate securities available for sale. At December 31, 2024, the aggregate notional amount of the related hedged items of the securities available for sale totaled $ 25 million and the fair value of the swaps associated with the derivative related to hedged items was an unrealized gain of $ 417 .
During the year ended December 31, 2024, the carrying amount of the hedged assets decreased due to the sale of two securities with an amortized cost of $ 5,500 . At December 31, 2024, the hedging relationship qualified for hedge accounting due to the amortized cost of the remaining securities exceeding the notional amount.
The Company applies hedge accounting in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, and the fair value hedge and the underlying hedged item, attributable to the risk being hedged, are recorded at fair value with unrealized gains and losses being recorded within other interest income on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company assesses the effectiveness of each hedging relationship by comparing the changes in fair value or cash flows on the derivative hedging instrument with the changes in fair value or cash flows on the designated hedged item or transactions for the risk being hedged.
If a hedging relationship ceases to qualify for hedge accounting, the relationship is discontinued and future changes in the fair value of the derivative instrument are recognized in current period earnings. For a discontinued or terminated fair value hedging relationship, all remaining basis adjustments to the carrying amount of the hedged item are amortized to interest income or expense over the remaining life of the hedged item consistent with the amortization of other discounts or premiums. Previous balances deferred in AOCI from discontinued or terminated cash flow hedges are reclassified to

interest income or expense as the hedged transactions affect earnings or over the originally specified term of the hedging relationship. The Company’s hedges continue to be highly effective and had no material impact on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Termination of Fair Value Hedge Relationship
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company terminated its fair value hedge relationship related to certain AFS securities. The hedge relationship was terminated as a result of the termination of the associated derivative instrument, and the Company did not redesignate the derivative as a hedging instrument. The underlying AFS securities were not sold in connection with the termination of the hedge relationship.
Upon termination of the fair value hedge, the derivative instrument was settled, and no derivative instruments related to this hedge relationship remained outstanding. The cumulative fair value hedge basis adjustment previously recorded on the hedged AFS securities, which reflects changes in fair value attributable to the hedged risk, remains as part of the carrying amount of the securities. Upon termination the unamortized basis adjustment related to the terminated hedge was $ 463 .The basis adjustment is being amortized into interest income over the remaining contractual lives of the related securities using the effective interest method. The AFS securities continue to be classified as available-for-sale, with unrealized gains and losses, excluding the hedge-related basis adjustment, recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (“AOCI”).
The termination of the fair value hedge relationship did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
