In announcing these results, Chief Executive Officer Tim Laney shared, “We delivered quarterly earnings of $0.88 of earnings per diluted share and a return on average tangible common equity of 14.18%.  Year-over-year fully taxable equivalent pre-provision net revenues grew by 19.9% highlighted by a strong net interest margin of 3.95%.  We remain diligent in monitoring our loan book and maintaining a disciplined approach to extending credit, which resulted in just 5 basis points of annualized net charge-offs during the quarter.”

Mr. Laney added, “Our solid results continue to generate meaningful capital growth with a Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 14.2%. Our excess capital position provides us with optionality to act on a variety of growth opportunities. We are pleased with the recent launch of 2UniFi, an innovative financial ecosystem that we believe can change the way business owners and operators access the U.S. banking system. 2UniFi is built to empower business entrepreneurs with banking and business tools that save time, reduce stress, and help them grow their business.”

Second Quarter 2025 Results

(All comparisons refer to the first quarter of 2025, except as noted)

Net income increased $9.8 million, or 40.4%, to $34.0 million or $0.88 per diluted share, compared to $24.2 million or $0.63 per diluted share. Fully taxable equivalent pre-provision net revenue increased $1.5 million, or 14.3% annualized, to $43.5 million. The return on average tangible assets increased 40 basis points to 1.49%, and the return on average tangible common equity increased 3.54% to 14.18%. Compared to the second quarter of 2024, fully taxable equivalent pre-provision net revenue increased $7.2 million or 19.9%.

Net Interest Income

Fully taxable equivalent net interest income increased $0.7 million to $89.3 million due to one additional day during the second quarter. The fully taxable equivalent net interest margin widened two basis points to 3.95%, driven by a three basis point increase in earning asset yields, partially offset by an increase in the cost of funds.

1


Loans

Loans totaled $7.5 billion at June 30, 2025, compared to $7.6 billion. We generated quarterly loan fundings of $322.7 million, led by commercial loan fundings of $219.6 million. The second quarter’s weighted average rate on new loans at the time of origination was 7.4%, compared to a weighted average yield of 6.5% on our loan portfolio.

Asset Quality and Provision for Credit Losses

The Company recorded no provision expense for credit losses, compared to $10.2 million in the previous quarter. Annualized net charge-offs totaled 0.05% of average total loans, compared to 0.80%. Non-performing loans totaled 0.45% of total loans at June 30, 2025, consistent with the previous quarter, and non-performing assets decreased one basis point to 0.45% of total loans and OREO at June 30, 2025. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans increased one basis point to 1.19% at June 30, 2025.

Deposits

Average total deposits decreased $58.8 million to $8.2 billion during the second quarter 2025, and average transaction deposits (defined as total deposits less time deposits) decreased $85.3 million to $7.1 billion. The loan to deposit ratio totaled 90.5% at June 30, 2025, compared to 90.8%. The mix of transaction deposits to total deposits was 87.0% at June 30, 2025, compared to 87.4%.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income increased $1.7 million, or 11.0%, to $17.1 million during the second quarter. Income from partnership investments increased $0.6 million, bank card fees increased $0.5 million, SBA loan gains on sale increased $0.2 million, and the sales of two previously consolidated banking center properties drove a $1.3 million gain. Mortgage banking income decreased $0.8 million.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense totaled $62.9 million, compared to $62.0 million in the first quarter, which benefited from the $1.9 million payroll tax credits realized in the first quarter. Excluding the impact from the first quarter’s payroll tax credits, non-interest expense decreased $1.0 million due to our disciplined expense management. The second quarter’s non-interest expense includes $0.3 million of non-recurring restructuring charges as a result of expense reduction actions executed during the quarter. The fully taxable equivalent efficiency ratio improved 42 basis points to 57.3%, excluding other intangible assets amortization.

Income tax expense totaled $7.5 million, compared to $5.6 million in the previous quarter, as a result of higher pre-tax income in the second quarter. The effective tax rate was 18.1%, compared to 18.8% in the first quarter.

Capital

Capital ratios continue to be well in excess of federal bank regulatory agency “well capitalized” thresholds. The tier 1 leverage ratio totaled 11.18%, and the common equity tier 1 capital ratio totaled 14.17% at June 30, 2025. Shareholders’ equity increased $23.2 million to $1.4 billion at June 30, 2025, primarily driven by $22.5 million of growth in retained earnings from net income after covering the quarter’s dividend, and a $4.1 million improvement in accumulated other comprehensive loss due to changes in the interest rate environment.

Common book value per share increased $0.65 to $35.55 at June 30, 2025. Tangible common book value per share increased $0.70 to $26.64 driven by the quarter’s earnings after covering the quarterly dividend, and a $0.11 improvement in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Year-Over-Year Review

(All comparisons refer to the first six months of 2024, except as noted)

Net income increased $0.7 million to $58.3 million or $1.51 per diluted share, compared to $57.5 million or $1.50 per diluted share. Fully taxable equivalent pre-provision net revenue increased $8.6 million to $85.4 million. The return on average tangible assets increased one basis point to 1.29%, and the return on average tangible common equity was 12.44%, compared to 13.77%.

2


Fully taxable equivalent net interest income increased $6.9 million to $177.9 million.

Loans outstanding totaled $7.5 billion as of June 30, 2025, compared to $7.7 billion. New loan fundings over the trailing twelve months totaled $1.4 billion, led by commercial fundings of $928.3 million.

The mix of transaction deposits to total deposits was 87.0% at June 30, 2025, compared to 87.8%.

Non-interest expense decreased $1.0 million to $124.9 million as a result of disciplined expense management and payroll tax credits realized during the first quarter 2025.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain of the financial measures and ratios we present, including “tangible assets,” “return on average tangible assets,” “tangible common equity,” “return on average tangible common equity,” “tangible common book value per share,” “tangible common equity to tangible assets,” “non-interest expense excluding other intangible assets amortization,” “efficiency ratio excluding other intangible assets amortization,” “net income excluding the impact of other intangible assets amortization expense, after tax,” “pre-provision net revenue” and “fully taxable equivalent” metrics, are supplemental measures that are not required by, or are not presented in accordance with, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We refer to these financial measures and ratios as “non-GAAP financial measures.” We consider the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial and operational decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain expenditures or assets that we believe are not indicative of our primary business operating results or by presenting certain metrics on a fully taxable equivalent basis. We believe that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and you should not rely on non-GAAP financial measures alone as measures of our performance. The non-GAAP financial measures we present may differ from non-GAAP financial measures used by our peers or other companies. We compensate for these differences by providing the equivalent GAAP measures whenever we present the non-GAAP financial measures and by including a reconciliation of the impact of the components adjusted for in the non-GAAP financial measure so that both measures and the individual components may be considered when analyzing our performance. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures is included at the end of the financial statement tables.

(2)

    

Ratio represents non-GAAP financial measure. See non-GAAP reconciliations starting on page 14.

(3)

Net interest margin represents net interest income, including accretion income on interest earning assets, as a percentage of average interest earning assets.

(4)

    

Interest rate spread represents the difference between the weighted average yield on interest earning assets, including FTE income, and the weighted average cost of interest bearing liabilities. Ratio represents a non-GAAP financial measure.

(5)

Interest earning assets include assets that earn interest/accretion or dividends. Any market value adjustments on investment securities or loans are excluded from interest earning assets.

(6)

Non-interest income to total revenue represents non-interest income divided by the sum of net interest income FTE and non-interest income. Ratio represents a non-GAAP financial measure.

(7)

Non-performing loans consist of non-accruing loans and modified loans on non-accrual.
