In recent years commercial real estate markets both nationally and locally have been adversely affected by thea COVID-19weakening pandemic. Remote employee work opportunities during the pandemic have impacted, and may continue to impact, the occupancy of commercial properties.demand. Weakness in our commercial real estate market could result in an increased delinquency rate and losses from these loans. We believe that the resilience of our market and borrowers provides an ability to adjust to and withstand such risks. However, increased losses from this portfolio could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We may be required to increase our provisions for credit losses and to charge off loans in the future, whichfuture; increases in provision and chargescharge offs could materially adversely affect us.
There is no precise method of predicting the timing of loancredit losses. We can give no assurance that our allowance for credit losses is or will be sufficient to absorb actual loancredit losses. We maintain an allowance for credit losses on loans, which is a reserve established through a provision for credit losses charged to expense, that represents management’s estimable and observable losses within the existing portfolio of loans. The level of the allowance reflects management’s evaluation of, among other factors, the status of specific individually evaluated loans, trends in historical loss experience, delinquency trends, credit concentrations and economic conditions within our market area. The determination of the appropriate level of the allowance for credit losses inherently involves a high degree of subjectivity and judgment and requires us to make significant estimates of current and expected future credit risks and future trends, any or all of which may undergo subsequent material changes. Changes in economic conditions affecting borrowers, new information regarding existing loans, identification of additional problem loans and other factors, both within and outside of our control, may require us to increase our allowance for credit losses. Increases in nonperformingnon-performing loans may have a significantan impact on our allowance for credit losses.
Our stress tests may not accurately predict our financial condition.
We perform credit and capital stress testing on an quarterly basis using stress test assumptions we believe are reasonable. Within our stress test, we estimate our credit losses, resources available to absorb those losses, and any necessary additions to capital. The results of these stress tests involve many assumptions about the future economy, credit losses and default rates and may not accurately reflect our financial condition. Any deterioration in the economy could result in significantly higher credit losses and negative impacts on our financial condition and capital than projected by our internal stress tests.
Among other sources of funds, we rely heavily on deposits for funds to make loans and provide for our other liquidity needs. However, our loan demand has historically exceeded the rate at which we have been able to build core deposits for which there is substantial competition from a variety of different competitors, so we have relied on interest-sensitive deposits, including wholesale deposits, as sources of funds. Those deposits may not be as stable as other types of deposits and, inIn the future, depositors may not renew thosethese deposits when they mature, or we may have to pay a higher rate of interest to attract or retain them or to replace them with other deposits or with funds from other sources. Not being able to attract deposits, or to retain or replace them as they mature, would adversely affect our liquidity. Paying higher deposit rates to attract, retain or replace those deposits could have a negative effect on our interest margin and operating results. A failure to maintain adequate liquidity could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.
Payments Services. In 2016, we added a new funding source by way of facilitating payment services. We are continuing to identify and solicit new customers in need of these specialized services. The primary reasons for expanding into payment services are to secure an additional source of low-cost deposits and to capture additional fee income. A bank’s risks when dealing with a processor account are similar to risks from other activities in which customers conduct transactions through the bank on behalf of the customers’ clients. It is necessary for a bank to implement an adequate processor approval, monitoring and auditing program that extends beyond credit risk management and is conducted on an ongoing basis. When a bank is not able to identify and understand the nature and source of transactions processed through accounts, the bank’s risks and the likelihood of suspicious activity can increase. Without these precautions, a bank could be vulnerable to processing illicit or sanctioned transactions.
BAAS Software Solutions. Developing and deploying a software program has added, and may contain to add, additional risk, including financial, cybersecurity, compliance and reputational concerns.
In 2021, the Company began development of a proprietary BAAS solution, Avenu, to provide an embedded banking solution that connects our partners (fintech, application developers, money movers, and entrepreneurs) directly and seamlessly to our Software as a Service (SAAS). At the end of 2024, management reviewed the Avenu platform’s performance. Delays in bringing Avenu to market and subsequent changes in revenue generation potential necessitated a review for impairment and a resulting charge to earnings of the full value of its capitalized intangible software. For additional information, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.”
The adoption and use of artificial intelligence tools by us and our third-party vendors and service providers may increase the risk of errors, omissions, unfair treatment or fraudulent behavior by our employees, clients, or counterparties, or other third parties.
Our adoption and use of artificial intelligence, including generative artificial intelligence, machine learning, and similar tools and technologies that collect, aggregate, analyze or generate data or other materials or content (collectively, "AI"), for internal use has increased our efficiency, and we expect to continue to adopt such tools as appropriate, in line with our AI Strategy. In addition, we expect our third-party vendors and service providers to increasingly develop and incorporate AI into their product offerings faster than we are able to do so independently. The adoption and incorporation of such AI tools can lead to concerns around safety and soundness, fair access to financial services, fair treatment of consumers, and compliance with applicable laws and regulations. We have implemented an AI governance function and risk management framework that includes a risk assessment of internal and vendor AI solutions, due diligence, and controls.
In addition, regulation of AI is rapidly evolving as legislatures and regulators are increasingly focused on these powerful emerging technologies. The technologies underlying AI and its uses are subject to a variety of laws and regulations, including intellectual property, data privacy and cybersecurity, consumer protection, competition, equal opportunity, and fair lending laws, and are expected to be subject to increased regulation and new laws or new applications of existing laws and regulations. AI is the subject of ongoing review by various U.S. governmental and regulatory agencies, and various U.S. states are applying, or are considering applying, existing laws and regulations to AI or are considering general legal frameworks for AI. We may not be able to anticipate how to respond to these rapidly evolving frameworks, and we may need to expend resources to adjust our operations or offerings in certain jurisdictions if the legal frameworks are inconsistent across jurisdictions. Furthermore, because AI technology itself is highly complex and rapidly developing, it is not possible to predict all the legal, operational or technological risks that may arise relating to the use of AI. Our use of AI may require additional resources, including the incurrence of additional costs, to develop and maintain our products and services to minimize potentially harmful or unintended consequences, to comply with applicable and emerging laws and regulations, to maintain or extend our competitive position, and to address any ethical, reputational, technical, operational, legal, competitive or regulatory issues which may arise as a result of any of the foregoing.
Health emergencies or pandemics may re-emerge.
COVID-19 and its variants have not been completely eliminated.
The Company has resumed pre-COVID-19 pandemic business activities, and our employees have returned to the office. The Bank’s branch offices are open and operating during normal business hours. To protect the health of its customers and employees, the Company continues to take precautions. Those actions have not impaired our ability to conduct business and fully serve our customers. While the adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have dissipated, COVID-19 and its variants have not been completely eliminated. New variants could adversely disrupt our future operations.
We cannot be certain as to our ability to manage increased levels of assets and liabilities without increased expenses and higher levels of nonperformingnon-performing assets. We may be required to make additional investments in equipment and personnel to manage higher asset levels and loan balances, which may adversely affect earnings, shareholder returns, and our efficiency ratio. Increases in operating expenses or nonperformingnon-performing assets may decrease our earnings and the value of the Company’s capital stock.
Prior to 2022, it had been the policy of the Federal Reserve to maintain interest rates at historically low levels through its targeted federal funds rate and the purchase of mortgage-backed securities. As a result, market rates on the loans we originated and the yields on securities we purchased during that period have been at historically low levels. As discussed above, rates are fluctuating, and due to a number of factors including changes in monetary policies of the Federal Reserve, will likely continue to fluctuate.
Our success depends, to a certain extent, upon general business economic and political conditions, local and national, as well as governmental monetary policies. Conditions such as inflation, tariffs, recession, unemployment, changes in interest rates, money supply and other factors beyond our control may adversely affect our asset quality, deposit levels and loan demand and, therefore our growth and earnings. In addition, there are continuing concerns related to, among other things, the level of U.S. government debt and fiscal actions that may be taken to address that debt, a potential resurgence of economic and political tensions with or between other countries may have a destabilizing effect on financial markets and economic activity. Economic pressure on consumers, businesses and overall economic uncertainty may result in changes in spending, borrowing, and saving habits. These economic conditions and other negative developments in the domestic or international credit markets and economies may significantly affect the markets in which we do business. Adverse changes in the economy may also have a negative effect on the ability of our borrowers to make timely repayments of their loans, which would have an adverse impact on our earnings.
Inflation began to rise sharply at the beginning of 2022 and remained at an elevated level throughfor thea presentperiod of time. Small to medium-sized businesses may be impacted more during periods of high inflation as they are not able to leverage economies of scale to mitigate cost pressures compared to larger businesses. Consequently, the ability of our business customers to repay their loans may deteriorate, and in some cases this deterioration may occur quickly, which would adversely impact our results of operations and financial condition. Furthermore, a prolonged period of inflation could cause wages and other costs to the Company to increase, which could adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition.
We are subject to extensive regulation, supervision and examination by the Federal Reserve, our primary federal regulator, the Virginia Bureau of Financial Institutions, our chartering authority and the FDIC, as insurer of our deposits. Such regulation and supervision govern the activities in which we may engage, and are intended primarily for the protection of the insurance fund and the depositors and borrowers of the Bank rather than for holders of our capital stock. Various consumersconsumer and compliance laws also affect our operations.

“Total assets increased $192.7 million, or 9.5%, to $2.2 billion at December 31, 2024 from $2.0 billion at December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily the result of increases of $107.9 million in gross loans receivable, $93.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, $8.4 million in other assets, and $6.3 million in restricted securities. These increases were offset by a decrease in available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities of $5.4 million and a decrease of $19.7 million in computer software, due to the impairment charges taken on the computer software intangible asset.”see in full comparison

The accounting principles followed by the Company and the methods of applying these principles conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with general practices within the banking industry. The Company’s critical accounting policiespolicy relaterelates to (1) the allowance for credit losses,losses. (2) fair value of financial instruments, and (3) derivative financial instruments. TheseThis critical accounting policiespolicy requirerequires the use of estimates, assumptions and judgments which are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements. Accordingly, as this information changes, future financial statements could reflect the use of different estimates, assumptions and judgments. Certain determinations inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions and judgments and, as such, have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported.
Allowance for Credit Losses: On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASC 326). This standard replaced the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) methodology. CECL requires an estimate of credit losses for the remaining estimated life of the financial asset using historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts and generally applies to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities, and some off-balance sheet credit exposures such as unfunded commitments to extend credit. Financial assets measured at amortized cost will be presented at the net amount expected to be collected by using an allowance for credit losses. The determination of the appropriate level of the ACL on loans inherently involves a high degree of subjectivity and requires the Company to make significant judgments concerning credit risks and trends using quantitative and qualitative information, as well as reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions, all of which may undergo frequent and significant changes. Changes in conditions, including unforeseen events, changes in asset-specific risk characteristics, and other economic factors, both within and outside the Company’s control, may indicate the need for an increase or decrease in the ACL on loans. While management makes every effort to utilize the best information available in making its assessment of the ACL estimate, the estimation process is inherently challenging as potential changes in any one factor or input may occur at different rates and/or impact pools of loans in different ways. Further, changes in factors and inputs may also be directionally inconsistent, such that improvement in one factor may offset deterioration in others. See Note 1. Organization, Basis of Presentation, and Impact of Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements for a more detailed description of methodology and impact of adoption.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments: A portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities are carried at fair value, with changes in fair value recorded either in earnings or accumulated other comprehensive income (loss). These include investment securities available-for-sale and interest rate loan swaps on qualifying commercial loans. Periodically, the estimation of fair value also affects investment securities held-to-maturity when it is determined that the Company should record an allowance for credit losses on a security. Fair value determination is also relevant for certain other assets such as other real estate owned, which is recorded at the lower of the recorded balance or fair value, less estimated costs to sell. The determination of fair value also impacts certain other assets that are periodically evaluated for impairment using fair value estimates, including individually evaluated loans.
Fair value is generally based upon quoted market prices, when available. If such quoted market prices are not available, fair value is based upon internally developed models that primarily use observable market-based parameters as inputs. Valuation adjustments may be made to ensure that financial instruments are recorded at fair value. These adjustments may include amounts to reflect counterparty credit quality and the Company’s creditworthiness, among other things, as well as other unobservable parameters. Any such valuation adjustments are applied consistently over time. While management 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.
See Note 20, Fair Value Presentation, in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for a detailed discussion of determining fair value, including pricing validation processes.
Derivative Financial Instruments: The Bank recognizes derivative financial instruments at fair value as either other assets or other liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial condition. The Bank’s derivative financial instruments include interest rate swaps with certain qualifying commercial loan customers and dealer counterparties. Because the interest rate swaps with loan customers and dealer counterparties are not designated as hedging instruments, adjustments to reflect unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in fair value of these instruments are reported as non-interest income or non-interest expense, as applicable. The Bank’s interest rate swaps with loan customers and dealer counterparties are described more fully in Note 19 in the December 31, 2024, Consolidated Financial Statements.
Net lossincome for the year ended December 31, 2024,2025, was $10.0$15.6 million, aan decreaseincrease of $36.6$25.6 million, or 137.5% compared to a net incomeloss of $26.6$10.0 million earned duringfor the year ended December 31, 2023.2024. The decreaseincrease in net income was due to increasesa decrease in interest expense of $24.4$10.0 million and ana increasedecrease of non-interest expenses of $27.4$18.4 million compared to the same period in the prior year.
Net interest income before provision for credit losses totaled $69.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $62.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to $76.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.2024. The decreaseincrease in net interest income was driven by ana increasedecrease in deposit interest expense discussed below, for the year ended December 31, 2024.2025.
The net interest margin was 3.46% for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to 3.13% for the year ended December 31, 2024, compared to 4.15% for the year ended December 31, 2023, on a fully tax equivalent basis. The decreaseincrease in net interest margin primarily resulted from ana increasedecrease of interest expense on our interestinterest-bearing bearing liabilities that outpaced the increase in interest income.liabilities. The primary drivers of increaseddecreased interest expense came from cost management on demand, money market, and time deposits.deposits Theduring 2025. Additionally, the federal funds target rate remainingdecreasing highby 75 basis points in 20242025 impacted our maturing wholesale deposits that had to repricerepriced in a higherlower interest rate environment, which increased margin pressure on our loan portfolio and other interest earning assets.

The increase in yield on the tax-exempt investment securities was primarily due to rates on variable securities remaining high with the current rate environment and lower yields on investment securities maturing during the period.
The rate paid on interest bearinginterest-bearing deposits increaseddecreased to 3.92% during the year ended December 31, 2025, from 4.70% during the year ended December 31, 2024, from 3.57% during the year ended December 31, 2023.2024. This increasedecrease was a result of higherlower rates paid on all outstanding deposits in conjunction with the higherdecreasing rate environment throughout the year.
The rate paid on FHLB borrowings and federal funds purchased for the year ended December 31, 20242025 was 5.61%0.00% and 5.78%,4.71%, respectively, compared to the prior year of 4.90%5.61% for FHLB borrowings and 5.36%5.78% for federal funds purchased. This increasedecrease was a result of higherlower rates paid on all outstanding borrowings in conjunction with the higherdecreasing rate environment throughout the year.
We establish a provision for credit losses, which is charged to operations, in order to maintain the allowance for credit losses at a level we consider necessary to absorb expected credit losses that are both probable and reasonably estimated at the balance sheet date. In determining the level of the allowance for credit and off-balance sheet losses, we consider past and current loss experience, evaluations of real estate collateral, current and future economic conditions, volume and type of lending, adverse situations that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay a loan and the levels of non-performing loans. The amount of the allowance is based on estimates, and actual losses may vary from such estimates as more information becomes available or economic conditions change.
The provision for credit losses on loans increaseddecreased to a recovery of credit loss provision of $7.5$0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2024,2025, compared to the prior year which ended at a credit loss provision of $1.9$7.5 million. The provision for credit losses on off-balance sheet exposure was a net recoveryprovision of $722,000$48,000 compared to the prior year which ended with a net recovery of $301,000.$0.7 million. The increasedecrease in provision for credit losses on loans was primarily driven by loan growth andless charge offs taken in 2024 as well as increasing qualitative factors within our model assumptions for increased levels of past dues, higher levels of nonperforming loans as of December 31, 20242025 compared to December 31, 2023, and potential weaknesses in underlying collateral for certain asset classes.2024. The recovery of credit losses for off-balance sheet exposure was driven by fluctuations in our revolving credit line utilization rates as of December 31, 2024.2025. Loan originations decreased $73.6$21.6 million, which totaled $447.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023 compared to loan originations of $374.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.2024 compared to loan originations of $352.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. Non-performing loans were $1.0 million at December 31, 2023 and $21.7 million at December 31, 2024.2024 and $31.5 million at December 31, 2025.
During the year ended December 31, 2024,2025, classified loans increased $36.2$26.8 million for a balance of $57.4$84.2 million. During the year ended December 31, 2024,2025, criticized loans increased $66.3$25.2 million to $85.3$110.5 million. During the year ended December 31, 2024,2025, watch list loans increased $63.9$46.1 million to $122.6$168.7 million. Management does not believe any significant loss exposure currently exists in these loans. All classified loans are considered individually evaluated and have strong collateral positions, with satisfactory loan-to-value (LTVs) ratios. Criticized loans continue to perform, are well collateralized, and show improving trends. During the year ended December 31, 2025, there was $0.9 million in charge-offs recorded and recoveries of $0.8 million were received. During the year ended December 31, 2024, there was $4.6 million in charge-offs recorded and recoveries of $28,000 were received. During the year ended December 31, 2023, there was $468,000 in charge-offs recorded and recoveries received of $22,000.$28,000.

Total assets decreased $15.4 million, or 0.7%, to $2.21 billion at December 31, 2025 from $2.23 billion at December 31, 2024. The decrease was primarily the result of decreases of $45.0 million in cash and cash equivalents offset by an increase of $31.3 million in net loans receivable.
Total assets increased $192.7 million, or 9.5%, to $2.2 billion at December 31, 2024 from $2.0 billion at December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily the result of increases of $107.9 million in gross loans receivable, $93.2 million in cash and cash equivalents, $8.4 million in other assets, and $6.3 million in restricted securities. These increases were offset by a decrease in available-for-sale and held-to-maturity securities of $5.4 million and a decrease of $19.7 million in computer software, due to the impairment charges taken on the computer software intangible asset.
Our primary source of income is derived from interest earned on loans. Our loan portfolio consists of loans secured by real estate as well as commercial business loans and consumer loans, substantially all of which are secured by corresponding deposits at the Bank.loans. Our loan customers primarily consist of small- to medium-sized businesses, professionals, real estate investors, small residential builders and individuals. Our owner occupied and investment commercial real estate loans, residential construction loans and commercial business loans provide us with higher risk-adjusted returns, shorter maturities and more sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations, and are complemented by our relatively lower risk residential real estate loans to individuals. Our lending activities are principally directed to our market area consisting of the Washington, D.C. and Northern Virginia metropolitan areas.
The Company holds a concentration in commercial real estate loans. The Board has set a risk tolerance level of 150% and 375% of consolidated risk-based capital for construction, land development and other land loans and commercial real estate loans. As of December 31, 2024,2025, construction, land development and other land loans represented 131.9%97.6% of consolidated risk-based capital. Total commercial real estate loans as defined by the Agency guidance represented 393.8%354.6% of consolidated risk-based capital. During the prior 36 months, the Company has experienced an increase in its commercial real estate portfolio by 72%. The Company has temporarily exceeded the target level for the commercial real estate segment and is working quickly to bring this segment back within the Board tolerance level.45%.
We stress test earning assets using a worst-case methodology on a quarterly basis and measure the results against the Bank's risk-based capital. For commercial loans, residential real estate loans, owner-occupied commercial real estate loans and consumer installment loans, we multiply the total outstanding amount for each loan category by our highest quarter historical loss for that category as a surrogate in order to calculate a stressed loss.
The Company’s asset quality remained strongresilient during the year ended December 31, 2024.2025. NonperformingNon-performing assets, which includes nonaccrualnon-accrual loans, accruing loans 90 days past due, and other real estate owned totaled $33.2 million at December 31, 2025, and $21.7 million at December 31, 2024, and $1.0 million at December 31, 2023.2024.
A loan’s past due status is based on the contractual due date of the most delinquent payment due. All loans which are 30 or more days past due at the end of the month are reported to the Board of Directors. Commercial loans are generally placed on nonaccrualnon-accrual status when the collection of principal or interest is 90 days or more past due, or earlier, if collection is uncertain based on an evaluation of the net realizable value of the collateral and the financial strength of the borrower. Consumer loans are generally placed on nonaccrualnon-accrual status when the collection of principal or interest is 120 days or more past due, or earlier, if collection is uncertain based on an evaluation of the net realizable value of the collateral and the financial strength of the borrower. Loans greater than 90 days past due may remain on accrual status if management determines it has adequate collateral to cover the principal and interest. For those loans that are carried on nonaccrualnon-accrual status, payments are first applied to principal outstanding. A loan may be returned to accrual status if the borrower has demonstrated a sustained period of repayment performance in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan and there is reasonable assurance the borrower will continue to make payments as agreed.
As a percentage of total assets, nonperformingnon-performing assets were 1.50% at December 31, 2025, compared with 0.97% at December 31, 2024, compared with 0.05% at December 31, 2023.2024.

The pronounced shift from non-interest bearingnon-interest-bearing demand deposits into money market demand and time deposits was driven by market conditions emanating from the large-bank failures in the first half of 2023. In order for us to maintain the customer relationships, we needed to shift the deposits into accounts where we could provide excess FDIC insurance coverage. We also gained in money market demand and time deposits as customers brought additional funds into the Company.
The Company uses wholesale deposits as a funding source in addition to customer deposits. Wholesale deposits provide a diversified and stable source of funding duringthat timesgenerally ofhas marketstated volatility.maturities.

We may obtain advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of RichmondAtlanta upon the security of the common stock we own in that bank and certain of our residential and commercial mortgage loans, provided certain standards related to creditworthiness have been met. These advances are made pursuant to several credit programs, each of which has its own interest rate and range of maturities. Federal Home Loan Bank advances are generally available to meet seasonal and other withdrawals of deposit accounts and to permit increased lending.
At December 31, 20242025 and 2023,2024, we were permitted to borrow up to an aggregate total of $544.8$587.8 million and $504.8$544.8 million, respectively, from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Richmond.Atlanta.

Average Balances, Net Interest Income, Yields Earned and Rates Paid
The following table shows for the periods indicated the total dollar amount of interest from average interest-earning assets and the resulting yields, as well as the interest expense on average interest-bearing liabilities, expressed both in dollars and rates, and the net interest margin. All average balances are based on daily balances.
Rate/ Volume Analysis
The following table presents the effects of changing rates and volumes on net interest income for the periods indicated. The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior average volume). The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in average volume multiplied by prior rate). Changes attributable to both rate and volume, which cannot be segregated, have been allocated proportionately. The Total Increase (Decrease) column represents the sum of the prior columns.
Provision for Credit Losses
Management believes that the allowance for credit losses recorded for the period ended June 30, 2026 reflects a balance sufficient to provide for each allowance segment, using objective data and information available to us at this time in evaluating our standard analysis of local/national economic data, changes in underwriting quality, portfolio concentrations, experience of lending team, credit quality and supportable forecasts. We will continuously review the credit portfolio to determine the depth and breadth of potential credit losses. As we obtain additional information and to more accurately assess the full nature and extent of any elevated risk to the credit portfolio that may arise, additional provision expenses may be required.
The provision for credit losses, which is an operating expense, is maintained to ensure that the allowance for credit losses is maintained at levels we consider necessary and appropriate to absorb expected credit losses as of the balance sheet date. In determining the level of the allowance for credit losses on loans and off-balance sheet credit exposure, we consider past and current loss experience, evaluations of real estate collateral, current and future economic conditions, volume and type of lending, adverse situations that may affect a borrower’s ability to repay a loan and the levels of non-performing loans. The amount of the allowance is based on estimates, and actual losses may vary from such estimates as more information becomes available over time or economic conditions change. This evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates and assumptions that are susceptible to significant revision as circumstances change or as more information becomes available. The allowance for credit losses is assessed monthly and provisions are made for credit losses as required in order to maintain the overall allowance.
The provision for credit losses on loans was $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 given loan growth during the period, compared to a recovery of credit losses on loans of $0.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Loan originations, which totaled approximately $96.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 increased $62.4 million to $159.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, there were $0.3 million charge-offs incurred and recoveries of $37,000 were received. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, there were $0.6 million charge-offs incurred and recoveries of $0.8 million were received.
The provision for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposure was $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to a recovery of credit losses of $15,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The provision for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposure for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was primarily related to increases in unfunded commitment levels and fluctuations in utilization rates.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income decreased $0.7 million, or 35.1%, to $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from $2.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The decrease in non-interest income was primarily due to a $0.7 million loss on the sale of other real estate owned during the six months ended June 30, 2026. Additionally, the gain on retirement of subordinated debt of $128,000 and gain on equity securities of $103,000 that took place during the six months ended June 30, 2025 were not recurring in the six months ended June 30, 2026. These decreases are offset by an increase of $0.1 million in other non-interest income due to a prepayment fee recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2026. The Company continues to focus on increasing non-interest income as it continues to add services that strategically benefit our customers.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense decreased $3.9 million, or 13.3%, to $25.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $29.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 primarily because of continued expense management efforts across the Company. Salaries and employee benefits decreased $1.6 million to $15.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $16.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 due to a decrease in full time employees compared to last year. Outside services, which includes professional fees for attorneys, accountants, consultants, and cloud services, decreased $1.6 million to $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $2.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Furniture and equipment expenses decreased approximately $0.6 million to $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. FDIC insurance expense decreased $0.3 million to $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, due to the stabilized level of deposits compared to the temporary surge experienced at the end of 2025. Advertising and marketing decreased approximately $0.3 million to $0.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $1.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. These decreases were offset by an increase in other real estate owned expenses of $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to none for the six months ended June 30, 2025. Other operating expenses increased $0.4 million to $3.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026, from $2.6 million primarily due to workout expenses as we work through a small number of problem credits.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense increased $0.9 million or 49.8%, to $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The increase in federal income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the same period a year ago was driven by increased estimated tax rates and the increase in income before income taxes of $2.6 million, to $11.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $8.8 million for the same period in the prior year. The Company accrues taxes based on an estimated tax rate basis using inputs and assumptions about pre-tax income. As the inputs and assumptions change, the estimated tax accruals will change throughout the year. The Company also invests in projects that have tax credit benefits in order to help reduce its overall tax liability, timing of these tax credits are layered into our overall assessment. At June 30, 2026, these tax credits exceed the total tax liability and therefore, are not fully utilized, which causes the effective income tax expense rate to increase. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company had an effective income tax expense rate of 22.97%, compared to 19.87% for the six months ended June 30, 2025. The Company has included assessments in income tax expense for potential state tax liabilities which totaled $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

The federal banking Agencies issued guidance in 2006 which addresses institutions with increased concentrations of commercial real estate (CRE) loans. The guidance does not establish specific CRE lending limits; rather, it promotes sound risk management practices and appropriate levels of capital that will enable institutions to continue to pursue CRE lending in a safe and sound manner. In developing this guidance, the Agencies recognized that different types of CRE lending present different levels of risk, and that consideration should be given to the lower risk profiles and historically superior performance of certain types of CRE, such as well-structured multifamily housing finance, when compared to others, such as speculative office space construction. As discussed under “CRE Concentration Assessments,” institutionsInstitutions are encouraged to segment their CRE portfolios to acknowledge these distinctions for risk management purposes. The guidance focuses on those CRE loans for which the cash flow from the real estate is the primary source of repayment rather than loans to a borrower for which real estate collateral is taken as a secondary source of repayment or through an abundance of caution. Thus, for the purposes of the guidance, CRE loans include those loans with risk profiles sensitive to the condition of the general CRE market (for example, market demand, changes in capitalization rates, vacancy rates, or rents). CRE loans are land development and construction loans (including 1- to 4-family residential and commercial construction loans) and other land loans. CRE loans also include loans secured by multifamily property, and nonfarm nonresidential property where the primary source of repayment is derived from rental income associated with the property (that is, loans for which 50 percent or more of the source of repayment comes from third party, nonaffiliated, rental income) or the proceeds of the sale, refinancing, or permanent financing of the property. Excluded from the scope of this Guidance are loans secured by nonfarm nonresidential properties where the primary source of repayment is the cash flow from the ongoing operations and activities conducted by the party, or affiliate of the party, who owns the property.
The Company holds a concentration in commercial real estate loans. As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, construction, land development and other land loans represented 100.1%103.5% of consolidated risk-based capital. Total commercial real estate loans as defined by the Agency guidance represented 367.6%379.3% of consolidated risk-based capital. During the prior 36 months, the Company has experienced an increase in its commercial real estate portfolio by 39.0%.47%. At June 30, 2026, CRE loans as defined by the Agency guidance represented 59% of total loans, an increase of $54.5 million from December 31, 2025.
Our risk management process begins with a robust underwriting program. The underwriting and risk rating of all loans is completed by an underwriting team that is independent of the originating lender(s). The underwriting analysis of commercial real estate loans includes pre-origination stress testing utilizing the portfolio stress testing methods to fully understand the potential exposure before we originate the credit. Once originated, management actively monitors concentration, and each loan receives ongoing quarterly stress tests to evaluate the risk profile over the life of the credit.
The total estimated stress test loss is deducted from capital and we recalculate the capital ratios. As shown in the tables below, as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the post-stress capital ratios well exceed our Board target ratios as well as Agency minimums (with buffer). For Non-Owner Occupied CRE & Multifamily the stress test is bifurcated with a low-end loss estimate and high-end estimate. The Low Estimate produces loss amounts for loans that are flagged for default (per the model) and floors the loss amount at zero. The High Estimate executes similar to the low estimate but floors the Loss-Given-Default rate at 10%, per Basel Committee on Banking Supervision rules. It also has a collective loss held on all loans regardless of if the loan is flagged for default.
The following two tables break down the MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 non-owner occupied CRE portfolio balances by showing the current balance in each sub-category and location. The tables also display very favorable weighted average interest rates and weighted average loan-to-values for both periods. The weighted average occupancy percentages are also broadly favorable for both periods.
The following two tables depict a well-diversified portfolio of owner-occupied commercial real estate as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The properties are distributed nicely among the Company's footprint. This loan segment continues to perform very well and is supported by strong loan-to-values (LTVs). The following table sets forth our owner-occupied CRE portfolio by the business industry groups that occupy the properties for the periods indicated.
The allowance for credit losses on loans to gross loans at June 30, 2026 decreased from December 31, 2025. This is primarily due to overall loan growth and growth in segments that have lower inherent risk.
Past due loans excluding non-performing loans, were $17.8$15.5 million as of MarchJune 31,30, 2026 compared to $33.3 million as of December 31, 2025. As of MarchJune 31,30, 2026, criticized loans increased $0.5$5.1 million and classified loans increased $27.1$31.5 million when compared to December 31, 2025, to a balance of $111.0$115.6 million and $111.3$115.7 million, respectively. The majority of classified loans is made up of 7seven relationships that experienced increases in operating costs, vacancies, and liquidity tightening as a result of the prolonged impacts of the federal government shut down, Washington D.C. government policies, and sustained elevated interest rates. Non-performing loans were $53.8$61.3 million at MarchJune 31,30, 2026, an increase of $22.3$29.8 million compared to $31.5 million at December 31, 2025. Approximately 46%40% of this balance is attributable to two relationships and the remaining 54%60% is confined to eighteleven relationships that experienced liquidity constraints. Additionally, as interest rates rose significantly starting March 2022 and largely sustained despite recent rate cuts, management believes in taking a proactive approach to risk management in the loan portfolio, particularly as credits are due to reprice in a new rate environment. The Company routinely charges off potential exposure as identified and analyzed, and executes the best course of action expected to minimize any further loss exposure. All classified loans and non-performing loans are considered individually evaluated and have strong collateral positions, with satisfactorygood loan-to-value (LTVs) ratios. As such, the increase in classified loans andWhile non-performing loans resulted in a decrease to the allowance for credit losses which was offset by loan growthincreased during the threequarter, monthsthe endedlevels Marchremain 31,manageable 2026.and management is diligently working towards positive resolutions.
