These components of net interest income are also affected by the volume and composition of our interest-earning assets, interest-bearing and non-interest-bearing liabilities, and shareholders’ equity.

During the six months ended March 31, 2026, interest rate trends were influenced by monetary policy actions taken by the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) of the Federal Reserve.

During the nine months ended June 30, 2026, interest rate trends were influenced by monetary policy actions taken by the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) of the Federal Reserve.

In the second half of calendar year 2025, the FOMC reduced the target range for the federal funds rate three times, most recently to a range of 3.50% to 3.75% in December 2025.

Despite the decline in market rates, net interest income improved for both the three and six months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the prior year periods, driven by growth in interest-earning assets and a decline in funding costs that outpaced the reduction in asset yields.

Our NIM improved modestly for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and more meaningfully for the six months then ended, reflecting the benefit of lower deposit and borrowing costs and continued growth in the average balance of our loan portfolio.

Despite the decline in market rates, net interest income improved for both the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the prior year periods, primarily due to higher loan yields, growth in average loan balances, and lower funding costs.

The decline in interest-bearing liability costs more than offset the impact of lower yields on certain interest-earning assets

during the three months ended June 30, 2026, while asset yields remained relatively stable during the nine months ended June 30, 2026.

As a result, NIM increased modestly for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and improved more significantly for the nine months then ended, reflecting improved funding costs and continued growth in the average balance of the loan portfolio.

The provision for (recapture of) credit losses on loans is dependent on changes in the loan portfolio and management’s assessment of the collectability of the loan portfolio as well as prevailing economic and market conditions.

The ACL on loans reflects the amount that management has determined is adequate to cover probable expected credit losses in the loan portfolio.

As the loan portfolio increases, or due to an increase in probable expected losses inherent in the loan portfolio, the ACL may

increase, resulting in a decrease to net interest income after the provision.

Improvement in loan risk ratings, increase in property values, or receipts of recoveries of amounts previously charged off may partially or fully offset any required increases to the ACL on loans due to loan growth or an increase in the probable expected credit losses.

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses on loans of $523,000 and $539,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2026 compared to a provision for credit losses on loans of $237,000 and $289,000 for the three and six months ended March 31, 2025.

The ACL on loans reflects the amount that management has determined is adequate to cover expected credit losses in the loan portfolio.

As the loan portfolio increases, or due to an increase in expected credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio, the ACL may increase, resulting in an increase in the provision for credit losses and a decrease to net income.

Improvement in loan risk ratings, increases in collateral values, or receipts of recoveries of amounts previously charged off may partially or fully offset any required increases to the ACL on loans due to loan growth or an increase in the probable expected credit losses.

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses on loans of $600,000 and $1.14 million for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026 compared to a provision for credit losses on loans of $351,000 and $640,000 for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025.

Net income is also impacted by levels of non-interest income and non-interest expense.

For the three and six months ended March 31, 2026, non-interest income consisted primarily of service charges on deposit accounts, gain on sales of loans, ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, BOLI net earnings, servicing income on loans sold, escrow fees and other operating income.

For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2026, non-interest income consisted primarily of service charges on deposit accounts, gain on sales of loans, ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, BOLI net earnings, servicing income on loans sold, escrow fees and other operating income.

Non-interest income may also be affected by net recoveries on investment securities and the reversal of previously recognized OTTI losses, if applicable.

Additionally, it is reduced by valuation allowances on loan servicing rights and increased by recoveries of such allowances, when recognized.

Non-interest expense for the same periods primarily included salaries and employee benefits, premises and equipment costs, advertising, ATM and debit card interchange transaction fees, postage and courier expenses, state and local taxes, professional fees, FDIC insurance premiums, loan administration and foreclosure-related expenses, technology and communications expenses, deposit operation expenses, amortization of CDI, and other general operating expenses.

In certain periods, non-interest expense may be offset by gains on the sale of premises and equipment or OREO.

Both non-interest income and non-interest expense are influenced by the Company’s overall growth and the expansion of its loan and deposit account base.

Both non-interest income and non-interest expense are influenced by the Company’s overall growth, business activities, and operating environment.

Results of operations may also be affected significantly by general and local economic and competitive conditions, changes in market interest rates, governmental policies and actions of regulatory authorities.

The increase was primarily due to a $39.56 million increase in average loan balances and a 12 basis point improvement in loan yields.

The improvement on loan yields reflects continued asset repricing, partially offset by a $19.11 million decrease in the average balance of investment securities.

Prepayment penalties, non-accrual interest and late fees totaled $38,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 compared to $201,000 in the prior year quarter which reduced the loan portfolio yield by one basis point.

The increase was minimal despite a $78.04 million increase in average interest-bearing liabilities, as the average cost of those liabilities declined 12 basis points to 2.35% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 from 2.47% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025.

The lower funding costs reflect repricing of money market accounts and retail certificates of deposit in response to changes in market interest rates, partially offset by higher rates on NOW checking accounts.

Average balances of retail CDs, NOW checking accounts and money market accounts increased, while brokered CD and savings account balances declined, reducing higher-cost wholesale funding and reflecting a continued shift toward core deposit funding.

As a result of changes above, the NIM increased two basis points to 3.81% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 from 3.79% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025.

The improvement reflects the impact of Federal Reserve rate reductions, which drove a 12 basis point decline in funding costs, more than offsetting a six basis point decrease in asset yields as the effect of lower market rates outpaced the benefit from the increase in average loan balances and repricing of adjustable-rate loans

Net interest income increased by $3.01 million, or 8.8%, to $37.19 million for the six months ended March 31, 2026 from $34.18 million for the six months ended March 31, 2025.

The lower funding costs reflect repricing of money market accounts and retail certificates of deposit in response to Federal Reserve rate reductions during the period, partially offset by higher rates on NOW checking accounts.

This decrease was partially offset by a $77.73 million increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities.
