The Company’s business is subject to risk. The following discussion, along with management’s discussion and analysis, the information contained in “Forward LookingForward-Looking Statements and Factors that Could Affect Future Results,” and the financial statements and footnotes, sets forth the most significant risks and uncertainties that management believes could adversely affect the Company’s future business, financial condition or results of operations, and that investors in the Company’s securities should carefully consider. References to past events in these risk factors are provided by way of example only and are not intended to be a complete listing or a representation as to whether or not such factors have occurred in the past or their likelihood of occurring in the future. Additional risks and uncertainties that management is not aware of or that management currently deems immaterial may also have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations. There is no assurance that this discussion covers all potential risks that the Company may face.
On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASC 326, more commonly referred to as "CECL," which replaced prior accounting principles for the recognition of loan losses based on losses that have been incurred with a requirement to record an allowance for credit losses that represents expected credit losses over the lifetime of all loans in the Company’s portfolio. Under ASC 326, the Company’s estimate of expected credit losses is based on reasonable and supportable forecasts of future economic conditions and loan performance. While the adoption of ASC 326 does not affect ultimate loan performance or cash flows of the Company from making loans, the period in which expected credit losses affect net income of the Company may not be similar to the recognition of loan losses under prior accounting guidance, and recognizing an ACL based on expected credit losses may create more volatility in the level of the Company's ACL and results of operations, including based on volatility in economic forecasts and expectations of loan performance in future periods, as actual results may differ materially from management's estimates. If the Company is required to materially increase the level of ACL for any reason, such increase could adversely affect the Company's business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The level of the ACL reflectedreflects management’s evaluation of the level of loans outstanding, the level of nonperforming loans, historical loan loss experience, delinquency trends, underlying collateral values, the amount of actual losses charged to the reserve in a given period and assessment of present and anticipated economic conditions. The determination of the appropriate level of the ACL inherently involvedinvolves a high degree of subjectivity and requiredrequires the Company to make significant estimates of credit risks and future trends, all of which could undergo material changes. Although the Company believedbelieves the ACL wasis a reasonable estimate of known and inherent losses in the loan portfolio at the time,portfolio, it could notcannot precisely predict such losses or be certain that the ACL wouldwill be adequate in the future. Deterioration of economic conditions affecting borrowers, new information regarding existing loans, identification of additional problem loans and other factors, both within and outside the Company’s control, may have requiredrequire an increase in the ACL. In addition, bank regulatory agencies and the Company’s auditors periodically reviewedreview its ACL and may have requiredrequire an increase in the provision for loancredit losses or the recognition of further loan charge-offs, based on judgments different from those of management. No adjustments to the ACL have been recommended or required as a result of audits.
The Company is directly and indirectly affected by changes in market conditions. Market risk generally represents the risk that values of assets and liabilities or revenues will be adversely affected by changes in market conditions. As a financial institution, market risk is inherent in the financial instruments associated with the Company’s operations and activities, including loans, deposits, securities, and short-term borrowings. A few of the market conditions that may shift from time-to-time, thereby exposing the Company to market risk, include fluctuations in interest rates, equity and futures prices, and price deterioration or changes in value due to changes in market perception or actual credit quality of issuers. The Company’s investment securities portfolio, in particular, may be impacted by market conditions beyond its control, including rating agency downgrades of the securities, defaults of the issuers of the securities, lack of market pricing of the securities, and inactivity or instability in the credit markets. Any changes in these conditions, in current accounting principles or interpretations of these principles could impact the Company’s assessment of fair value and thus the determination of other-than-temporarythe impairmentneed offor thean allowance for credit loss on securities in the investment securities portfolio, which could adversely affect the Company’s earnings and capital ratios.
Asset values also directly impact revenues in the Company’s wealth management businesses. The Company receives asset-based management fees based on the value of clients’ portfolios or investments in funds managed by the Company and, in some cases, the Company may also receive performance fees based on increases in the value of such investments. Declines in asset values can reduce the value of clients’ portfolios or fund assets, which in turn can result in lower fees earned for managing such assets.
Weaknesses in economic or market conditions, or adverse developments in the financial services industry, could pose challenges for the Company and could adversely affect the results of operations, liquidity, and financial condition[.condition.
Deterioration in, or uncertain, economic conditions could adversely affect the Company’s business which is directly affected by general economic and market conditions; broad trends in industry and finance; legislative and regulatory changes; changes in governmental monetary and fiscal policies, including trade policies and tariffs; and inflation, all of which are beyond the Company’s control. Prolonged periods of inflation may impact profitability by negatively impacting fixed costs and expenses, including increasing funding costs and expense related to talent acquisition and retention, and negatively impacting the demand for products and services. Additionally, inflation may lead to a decrease in consumer and commercial purchasing power and an increase in default rates on loans. Any deterioration in economic conditions, in particular a prolonged economic slowdown within the Company’s geographic region or a broader disruption in the economy, possibly as a result of a pandemic or other widespread public health emergency, acts of terrorism, or outbreak of domestic or international hostilities (including the ongoing military conflicts between Russia and Ukraine or and in the Middle East), or unanticipated events in the banking industry, such as high-profile bank failures in 2023, could result in the following consequences, any of which could hurt business materially;: declines in real estate values and home sales and increases in the financial stress on borrowers and unemployment rates, all of which could lead to increases in loan delinquencies, problem assets and foreclosures, and a deterioration in the value of collateral for loans made by the Company's various business segments; an increase in the level of loan losses exceeding the level the Company has provided in its ACL, which would reduce the Company’s earnings; a decline in demand for the Company's products and services; changes in the fair value of financial instruments held by the Company or its subsidiaries; or declines in available sources or amounts of liquidity and funding. Events in the financial services industry, such as the high-profile bank failures in 2023, may also cause concern and uncertainty about the financial services industry generally, which may result in sudden deposit outflows, increased borrowing and funding costs, and increased competition for liquidity, any of which could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.]
During 2022, the United States experienced the highest level of inflation since the 1980s. In response, the Federal Reserve increased the federal funds target rate at the fastest pace in over 40 years, increasing 425 bps during 2022 and an additional 100 bps in 2023, before declining by 100bps during 2024 and early 2025. Price-wage inflation may cause the Company to give higher than normal raises to employees and start new employees at a higher wage. Furthermore, the Company’s customers are also affected by inflation and the rising costs of goods and services used in their households and businesses, which could have a negative impact on their ability to repay their loans with the Company. As market interest rates rise, the value of the Company’s investment securities generally decreases, although this effect can be less pronounced for floating rate instruments. Higher interest rates reduce the demand for loans and increase the attractiveness of alternative investment and savings products, like U.S. Treasury securities and money market funds, which can make it difficult to attract and retain deposits.
Recent negative developments affecting the banking industry, and resulting media coverage, have eroded customer confidence in the banking system.
The closures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank in March 2023, and First Republic Bank in May 2023, and concerns about similar future events, have generated significant market volatility among publicly traded bank holding companies and, in particular, regional banks. More recently, concerns about commercial real estate concentrations at regional and community banks have exacerbated this volatility. These market developments have negatively impacted customer confidence in the safety and soundness of regional and community banks. As a result, customers may choose to maintain deposits with larger financial institutions or invest in higher yielding short-term fixed income securities, all of which could materially adversely impact the Company’s liquidity, loan funding capacity, net interest margin, capital and results of operations. While federal bank regulators took action to ensure that depositors of the failed banks had access to their deposits, including uninsured deposit accounts, there is no guarantee that such actions will be successful in restoring customer confidence in regional and community banks and the banking system more broadly. Furthermore, there is no guarantee that regional bank failures or bank runs similar to the ones that occurred in 2023 will not occur in the future and, if they were to occur, they may have a material and adverse impact on customer and investor confidence in regional and community banks negatively impacting the Company’s liquidity, capital, results of operations and stock price.
The Company faces strong and growing competition from financial services companiesinstitutions and other companies that offer banking and other financial services, which could negatively affect the Company’s business.
The Company encounters substantial competition from other financial institutions in its market area and competition is increasing. Ultimately, the Company may not be able to compete successfully against current and future competitors. Many competitors offer the same banking services that the Company offers in its service area. These competitors include national, regional and community banks. The Company also faces competition from many other types of financial institutions,services companies, including finance companies, mutual and money market fund providers, brokerage firms, insurance companies, credit unions, financial subsidiaries of certain industrial corporations and financial technology companies. Increased competition may result in reduced business for the Company.
In addition, multiple major U.S. retailers have experienced data systems incursions reportedly resulting in the thefts of credit and debit card information, online account information and other financial or privileged data. Retailer incursions affect cards issued and deposit accounts maintained by many banks, including Virginia Nationalthe Bank. Although the Company’s systems are not breached in retailer incursions, these events can cause it to reissue a significant number of cards and take other costly steps to avoid significant theft loss to the Company and its customers. In some cases, the Company may be required to reimburse customers for the losses they incur. Other possible points of intrusion or disruption not within the Company’s control include internet service providers, electronic mail portal providers, social media portals, distant-server (cloud) service providers, electronic data security providers, data processing service providers, telecommunications companies, and smart phone manufacturers.
The development and use of Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) presents risks and challenges that may adversely impact the Company’s business.
The Company or its third-party vendors, clients, or counterparties may develop or incorporate AI technology in certain business processes, services, or products. The development and use of AI presents a number of risks and challenges to the Company’s business. The legal and regulatory environment relating to AI is uncertain and rapidly evolving, and includes regulatory schemes targeted specifically at AI as well as provisions in intellectual property, privacy, consumer protection, employment, and other laws applicable to the use of AI. These evolving laws and regulations could require changes in the Company’s implementation of AI technology and increase the Company’s compliance costs and the risk of non-compliance. AI models, particularly generative AI models, may produce output or take action that is incorrect, that reflects biases included in the data on which they are trained, that results in the release of private, confidential, or proprietary information, that infringes on the intellectual property rights of others, or that is otherwise harmful. In addition, the complexity of many AI models makes it difficult to understand why they are generating particular outputs. This limited transparency increases the challenges associated with assessing the proper operation of AI models, understanding and monitoring the capabilities of the AI models, reducing erroneous outputs, eliminating bias, and complying with regulations that require documentation or explanation of the basis on which decisions are made. Further, the Company may rely on AI models developed by third parties, and, to that extent, would be dependent in part on the manner in which those third parties develop and train their models, including risks arising from the inclusion of any unauthorized material in the training data for their models and the effectiveness of the steps these third parties have taken to limit the risks associated with the output of their models, matters over which the Company may have limited visibility. Any of these risks could expose the Company to liability or adverse legal or regulatory consequences and harm the Company’s reputation and the public perception of its business or the effectiveness of its security measures.
The Company is currently facing increased regulation and supervision of its industry. The Dodd-Frank Act instituted major changes to the banking and financial institutions regulatory regimes. Other changes to statutes, regulations or regulatory policies or supervisory guidance, including changes in interpretation or implementation of statutes, regulations, policies or supervisory guidance, could affect the Company in substantial and unpredictable ways. Such additionalAdditional regulation and supervision has increased, and may continue to increase, the Company’s costs and limit its ability to pursue business opportunities. Further, the Company’s failure to comply with these laws and regulations, even if the failure was inadvertent or reflects a difference in interpretation, could subject it to restrictions on its business activities, fines and other penalties, any of which could adversely affect the Company’s results of operations, capital base and the price of its securities. Further, any new laws, rules and regulations could make compliance more difficult or expensive or otherwise adversely affect the Company’s business and financial condition.
Regulations issued by the CFPB could adversely impact earnings due to, among other things, increased compliance costs or costs due to noncompliance.
The CFPB significantly influences consumer financial laws, regulation and policy through rulemaking related to enforcement of the Dodd-Frank Act’s prohibitions against unfair, deceptive, and abusive consumer finance products or practices, which are directly affecting the business operations of financial institutions offering consumer financial products or services, including the Company. This agency’s broad rulemaking authority includes identifying practices or acts that are unfair, deceptive, or abusive in connection with any consumer financial transaction, financial product, or service. In particular, the CFPB’s interpretation of the Dodd-Frank Act’s prohibitions against unfair, deceptive, and abusive consumer finance products or practices may ultimately affect products or services currently offered by the Company and its subsidiaries and may affect the amount of revenue that may be derived from these products and services in the future, especially revenue from overdraft products offered by the Bank. Although the CFPB has supervisory jurisdiction over banks with $10 billion or greater in assets, rules, regulations, and policies issued by the CFPB may also apply to the Company or its subsidiaries by virtue of the adoption of such policies and practices by the Federal Reserve and the OCC. Further, the CFPB may include its own examiners in regulatory examinations by the Company and the Bank’s primary regulators. The limitations and restrictions imposed by the CFPB may produce significant, material effects on the Company's business, financial condition, and results of operations.
The Company is a “smaller reporting company” as defined in federal securities laws, and will remain a smaller reporting company until the fiscal year following the determination that the market value of its voting and non-voting common shares held by non-affiliates is more than $250 million measured on the last business day of its second fiscal quarter, or its annual revenues are less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of its voting and non-voting common shares held by non-affiliates is more than $700 million measured on the last business day of its second fiscal quarter.laws. Smaller reporting companies have reduced disclosure obligations, such as an exemption from providing selected financial data and an ability to provide simplified executive compensation information and only two years of audited financial statements. If some investors find the Company’s common stock less attractive because the Company may rely on these reduced disclosure obligations, there may be a less active trading market for its common stock and its stock price may be more volatile.

Fair value measurements are used by the Company to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. The Company’s valuation methodologies may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realized value or reflective of future fair values. 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. Additional discussion of valuation methodologies is presented in Note 17 – Fair Value Measurements, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Intangible asset accounting policies require that goodwill and other intangible assets acquired in a purchase business combination and determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized, but tested for impairment at least annually, or more frequently if events and circumstances exist that indicate that a goodwill impairment test should be performed. Intangible assets with definite useful lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives, which range from 3 to 10 years, to their estimated residual values. Goodwill is the only intangible asset with an indefinite life on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Additional discussion of the accounting policies and composition of goodwill and other intangibles assets is presented in Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 8 – Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
Income tax accounting policies have the objective to recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and the deferred tax assets and liabilities for future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in an entity’s financial statements or tax returns. Judgment is required in assessing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements or tax returns. Fluctuations in the actual outcome of these future tax consequences could impact the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
See Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Note 11 – Income Taxes, in the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, for further detail on the accounting policies for income taxes and for components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities.
The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to GAAP and prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, certain non-GAAP measures are used by management to supplement the evaluation of the Company’s performance. These include adjusted tangible book value per share and the following fully-taxable equivalent measures: net interest income-FTE, efficiency ratio-FTE and net interest margin-FTE. Interest on tax-exempt loans and securities is presented on a taxable-equivalent basis (which converts the income on loans and investments for which no income taxes are paid to the equivalent yield as if income taxes were paid) using the federal corporate income tax rate of 21% that was applicable for all periods presented.
Management believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures provides meaningful information about operating performance by enhancing comparability with other financial periods, other financial institutions, and between different sources of interest income. The non-GAAP measures used by management enhance comparability by excluding the effects of (1) balances of intangible assets, including goodwill, that vary significantly between institutions and (2) tax benefits that are not consistent across different opportunities for investment. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative toto, or more important than, GAAP-basis financial statements, and other banks and bank holding companies may define or calculate these or similar measures differently. Net income is discussed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis on a GAAP basis unless noted as “non-GAAP.”
Net income for the year ended December 31, 20242025 was $19.3 million, or $3.55 per diluted share, a 13.5% increase compared to $17.0 million, or $3.15 per diluted share, an 11.9% decrease compared to $19.3 million, or $3.58 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2023.2024. This decreaseincrease was the result of a $2.6$5.1 million decreaseincrease in net interest income and a $1.5 million decrease in noninterest income, offset by a $397.0$282.0 thousand decrease in noninterest expense. Each component of such year-over-year changes are described in more detail below.
The efficiency ratio (FTE) (non-GAAP) was 62.0%57.6% for the year ended December 31, 2024,2025, compared to 58.3%62.0% for the same period of 2023,2024, increasing due to the fluctuations in net interest income, noninterest income and noninterest expense noted above.
The Company had threetwo reportable segments during the periods2025 presentedperiod: the Bank and VNB Trust and Estate Services and three in the 2024 period: the Bank, VNB Trust and Estate Services and Masonry Capital.
Masonry Capital (Masonry) - Masonry Capital offers investment management services for separately managed accounts and a private investment fund employing a value-based, catalyst-driven investment strategy. Revenue for this segment is generated from management fees which are derived from Assets Under Management and incentive income which is based on the investment returns generated on performance-based Assets Under Management. Note that the membership interests in this business line were sold to an officer of the CompanyMasonry effective April 1, 2024. Subsequent to the date of sale, the Company will receive an annual revenue-share amount for a period of six years. No expenses have been or will be incurred by the Company related to Masonry Capital subsequent to April 1, 2024.
The Bank segment earned net income of $17.2$19.6 million in 2024,2025, a $2.2$2.3 million decreaseincrease compared to the $19.4$17.2 million netted in 2023.2024. VNB Trust and Estate Services realized a net loss of $275.0$306 thousand in 2024,2025, compared to a net loss of $307.0$275 thousand in 2023.2024. Masonry Capital realized a net loss of $2 thousand in the first quarter of 2024 prior to the sale of the business line, compared to net income of $145 thousand in 2023.2024.
Net interest income is computed as the difference between the interest income on earning assets and the interest expense on deposits and other interest bearing liabilities. Net interest income represents the principal source of revenue for the Company and accounted for 85.9%89.4% of the total revenue in 2024.2025. Net interest margin (FTE) (non-GAAP) is the ratio of taxable-equivalent net interest income to average earning assets for the period. The level of interest rates and the volume and mix of earning assets and interest bearing liabilities impact net interest income (FTE) (non-GAAP) and net interest margin (FTE) (non-GAAP).
The following table details the average balance sheet, including an analysis of net interest income (FTE) (non-GAAP) for earning assets and interest bearing liabilities, for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, 2023, and 2022.2023.
Consolidated Average Balance Sheets and Analysis of Net Interest Income (FTE) (non-GAAP)
The purpose of the volume and rate analysis below is to describe the impact on the net interest income (FTE) (non-GAAP) of the Company resulting from changes in average balances and average interest rates for the periods indicated. The change in interest due to both volume and rate has been allocated to volume and rate changes in proportion to the relationship of the absolute dollar amounts of the change in each. Interest income is reported on a tax-equivalent basis.
2025 compared to 2024
2023 compared to 2022
For 2024,2025, net interest income (FTE) (non-GAAP) of $46.7$51.9 million was recognized, aan decreaseincrease of $2.6$5.1 million over 2023.2024. Net interest income (FTE) (non-GAAP) for 20232024 totaled $49.3$46.7 million, a $4.6$2.6 million decrease over the 20222023 total of $53.9$49.3 million. Average earning assets increased $19.2 million or 1.3% in 2025 compared to 2024 and increased $37.8 million or 2.6% in 2024 compared to 2023 and decreased $212.1 million or 12.6% in 2023 compared to 2022.2023. The increase in the average balance of loans in the real estate and commercial categories werewas the primary driversdriver of the increase in interest income from 2024 to 2025, whereas the 2023 to 2024.2024 change in interest income was primarily driven by interest rate changes. The average balance for loans as a percentage of earnings assets for 20242025 was 77.5%,80.9%, compared to 66.8%77.5% and 58.3%66.8% in 20232024 and 2022,2023, respectively.
The 2025 net interest margin (FTE) (non-GAAP) improved 30 bps to 3.40% from 3.10% in 2024. The 2024 net interest margin (FTE) (non-GAAP) declined 26 bps to 3.10% from 3.36% in 2023. The 2023 net interest margin (FTE) improved 15 bps from 3.21% in 2022. The tax-equivalent yield on average earning assets for 20242025 of 5.07%5.09% was 282 bps higher than the 20232024 yield of 4.79%.5.07%. The 20232024 tax-equivalent yield on average earning assets was 13928 bps higher than the comparable 20222023 yield of 3.40%.4.79%. Loan yields for 20242025 were 5.71%,5.65%, declining only6 1 bpbps from the loan yield of 5.72%5.71% for 2023.2024. Average loans for 20242025 of $1.2 billion were $185.1$66.5 million higher than the 20232024 average of $980.6$1.2 million.billion.
The increasedecrease in rates paid on deposits in 20242025 compared to 20232024 negativelypositively impacted net interest income. Interest expense as a percentage of average earning assets increaseddecreased to 196169 bps for 2024, compared to 143 bps and 19 bps for 2023 and 2022, respectively.2025. Net interest margin will be impacted by future changes in short-term and long-term interest rate levels on deposits, as well as the impact from the competitive environment. A continuing primary driver of the Company’s low cost of funds compared to peers is the Company’s level of non-interest bearing demand deposits and low-cost deposit accounts. Following is a table illustrating the average balances of deposit accounts as a percentage of total deposit account balances.
Based on management’smanagement's continuing evaluation of the loan portfolio in 2024,2025, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $137 thousand, which includes a $75 thousand provision for unfunded commitments, compared to a net recovery of provision for credit lossesexpense of $600 thousand, which is net ofincluded a $118 thousand provision for unfunded commitments, comparedin 2024. The 2025 individual differences in the balances of various pools as well as changing loss rates have resulted in only nominal changes to provisionthe expenseoverall ACL ratio. The proportionate increase in government-guaranteed loans over the respective periods is also a main driver holding the ACL as a percentage of $734total thousand,loans whichfairly includessteady a $38 thousand provision for unfunded commitments, in 2023 and provision expense of $106 thousand in 2022.year-over-year. The decrease in 2024 is primarily the result of the impact of declining expected loss rates on most of the pools of loans within the CECL segmentation. The increase in 2023 is primarily the result of the adoption of ASC 326, which increased the ACL by $2.5 million effective January 1, 2023, as well as increase in provision related to organic loan growth.
The following is a summary of the changes in the ACL for the years ended December 31, 2024, 2023,2025 and 20222024:
Wealth management fees decreased $258 thousand. These fees vary based on the total assets under management portfolio and market changes. Debit/credit card and ATM fees decreased $531 thousand due to decreased debit card usage. Additionally, in 2024 there was a $904 thousand gain on the early redemption of debt but this did not reoccur in 2025.
Investment management income of $632 thousand and performance fees of $376 thousand were recognized in 2023 related to the Masonry business line.

Management of the Company continually monitors the impact of various global and national events on the Company's results of operations and financial condition, including inflation and economic recessionary conditions, changes in interest rates, the political environment, geopolitical conflicts, competition, liquidity matters, changes in legislative or regulatory requirements and changes in government policy, such as the imposition of tariffs and potential trade barriers. The timing and impact of inflation, fluctuations in and volatility of interest rates, and the competitive landscape of loans and deposits on our business and results of operations will depend on future developments, which are uncertain and unpredictable. In July 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act was signed into law, which includes a wide variety of tax reform provisions affecting individuals as well as businesses, including extending and modifying certain key provisions from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and expanding certain incentives from the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 while accelerating the phase-out of others.
In 2025, the Federal Reserve reduced rates three times with each rate reduction being 25 bps, and the final reduction occurred in December. There were no rate changes in the first half of 2026. While growth is solid, inflation remains above the 2% goal due to supply and energy shocks. At the July 29, 2026 FOMC meeting, where the rates remained unchanged again, the new Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh avoided future guidance on forward rate paths, and focused instead on new task forces to review policy frameworks.
In 2025, the Federal Reserve reduced rates three times with each rate reduction being 25 bps, and the final reduction occurring in December. There were no rate changes in the first quarter of 2026. Core inflation is expected to return to target by 2028, but with projections in the second half of 2026 and 2027 moving higher. There have been no developments that would be expected to cause significant increases in unemployment. Outgoing Federal Reserve Chairman Powell has highlighted that supply shocks - including the Iran war and energy price hikes - have made it difficult to balance the Federal Reserve's mandate.
Management believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures provides meaningful information about operating performance by enhancing comparability with other financial periods, other financial institutions, and between different sources of interest income. The non-GAAP measures used by management enhance comparability by excluding the effects of (1) items that do not reflect ongoing operating performance, (2) balances of intangible assets, including goodwill, that vary significantly between institutions, and (32) tax benefits that are not consistent across different opportunities for investment. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to, or more important than, GAAP-basis financial statements, and other banks and bank holding companies may define or calculate these or similar measures differently. Net income is discussed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis on a GAAP basis unless noted as “non-GAAP.”

The increase in net income in 2026 is primarily the result of the increase in noninterest income, continued decreases in the cost of funds,funds and increases in earning asset yields despite some contraction in loan balances, along with decreases in noninterest expense, particularly in net occupancy, data processing and other expenses. The gain from the sale of the Bearing limited partnership investment augmented noninterest income.

Consolidated Average Balance Sheet and Analysis of Net Interest Income
A provision for credit losses of $231 thousand was recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $3 thousand recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2025. For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 there were recoveries of $105 thousand and $157 thousand, respectively. The provision recognized in the three months ended June 30, 2026 was due to construction and multifamily project loans originated which drove increases in the ACL as those pools require higher reserves. The fluctuation of loan balances with a net reduction of outstanding balances from December 31, 2025 to June 30, 2026 contributed to the release. In addition, the migration of loans that were refinanced into pools requiring lower reserves contributed to the release.
A recovery of credit losses of $336 thousand was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to a recovery of $160 thousand recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The first quarter 2026 recovery was comprised of $281 thousand in a provision release for credit losses on loans, due primarily to the transfer of loans (such as construction loans) into pools requiring a lower reserve. Slightly more positive economic forecasts resulted in decreases in the loss factors associated with the organic loan portfolio. A provision release of $55 thousand for unfunded commitments was recorded, as construction loan commitments decreased slightly over the course of the first quarter of 2026. The first quarter of 2025 release was primarily attributed to declines in balances within loan pools that have higher loss rates and a decline in unfunded construction commitments.
