Discussion of Outlook; President & Chief Executive Officer,
Jeffrey G. Ludwig:

“We delivered a solid start to 2026, reflecting the actions taken throughout 2025 to strengthen credit quality and reduce portfolio risk. Credit metrics continued to improve, with non-performing assets declining and trending toward our 0.75% target, while profitability returned to normalized levels. As a result, we generated earnings of $0.74 per share and a return on average assets of 1.16%.

“Our capital position continued to strengthen, with the common equity tier 1 ratio increasing to 9.98%, approaching our 10% target. We remained disciplined in our capital allocation, repurchasing $7.8 million of common stock during the quarter while continuing to invest in our core businesses. Net interest margin expanded meaningfully, driven primarily by lower funding costs.

“Growth in our Community Bank remains a key priority for 2026, with loan growth supported by strong client relationships, while non-core portfolios continued to run off as planned. Our wealth management business delivered another solid quarter. We are encouraged by the momentum entering 2026, and we see opportunities to further improve efficiency in the Company as the year progresses.”

Key Points for

First

Quarter and Outlook

Solid Growth Trends in Community Bank & Wealth Management

Total loans at March 31, 2026 were $4.34 billion, a decrease of $13.4 million from December 31, 2025. Key changes in the loan portfolio were as follows:
- Community Bank balances increased $68.8 million, or 2.1%. We originated $130 million of new loans during the first quarter of 2026, down from $180 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, primarily reflecting typical seasonal softness at the start of the year. First quarter production benefited from ongoing expansion of full-relationship commercial clients.
- Specialty finance loans decreased $54.7 million to $613.5 million from December 31, 2025.
- Non-core loans, which include our third party lending and servicing programs and remaining equipment finance portfolio, decreased $27.5 million to $328.1 million from December 31, 2025.
Total deposits were $5.44 billion at March 31, 2026, an increase of $15.7 million from December 31, 2025. Key changes in deposits were as follows:
- Retail deposits increased $81.6 million driven primarily by growth in existing consumer and small business customer relationships and growth in new accounts as a result of targeted initiatives.
- Deposits among wealth management clients declined $22.8 million, reflecting normal fluctuations in client cash balances. Servicing deposits decreased $20.0 million due to the sales of the residential servicing portfolio and a portion of the commercial servicing portfolio.
- Higher-cost brokered deposits decreased $17.2 million.
Wealth Management revenue totaled $8.2 million in the first quarter of 2026, which was relatively stable compared to the prior quarter. Assets under administration were $4.47 billion at March 31, 2026, compared to $4.48 billion at December 31, 2025. Market volatility experienced at the end of the first quarter had a limited effect on our results.
Net interest margin was 3.91%, up 17 basis points compared to the fourth quarter of 2025, driven primarily by a continued decline in funding costs. The cost of deposits decreased 14 basis points to 1.81% in the first quarter of 2026, reflecting the ongoing impact of Federal Reserve rate cuts that began in late 2024. Margin expansion also benefited from a modest 2 basis point increase in loan yields and a favorable shift in the investment securities mix.

The following table presents the Company’s net interest margin for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the fourth quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2025.

Interest income on loans includes amortization of deferred loan fees, net of deferred loan costs.}

Trends in Noninterest Income and Expense

Noninterest income was $22.1 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $26.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2025. Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2026 included $2.1 million of gains from the sale of the Company’s residential servicing portfolio and a portion of the Company’s commercial servicing portfolio, losses of $1.7 million from the sale of investment securities, and a $1.7 million loss related to our limited partnership investments. Additionally, the first quarter of 2026 included credit enhancement income of $3.4 million while the fourth quarter of 2025 included $6.6 million of additional credit enhancement income driven by contractual changes in our third-party lending and servicing arrangement.
Noninterest expense was $50.4 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $77.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, which included $23.0 million of losses on the sale of loans.
Income tax expense was $5.6 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to an income tax benefit of $0.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 and income tax expense of $3.2 million for the first quarter of 2025. The resulting effective tax rates were 23.4%, 11.1% and 19.6%, respectively. The lower effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2025 reflected the loss on the sale of substantially all of our equipment finance portfolio; the effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2025 was not affected by the goodwill impairment, which was not deductible for tax purposes. We currently expect our effective tax rate to be approximately 22% – 23% for the full year, subject to changes in earnings mix, state tax legislation and other factors.

Improving Credit Quality

Nonperforming loans decreased to $58.8 million, or 1.36% of total loans, at March 31, 2026, compared to $65.5 million, or 1.50% of total loans, at December 31, 2025, while loans 30-89 days past due increased to $20.3 million, or 0.47% of total loans, at March 31, 2026.
Provision for credit losses on loans was $5.4 million for the first quarter of 2026.
Net charge-offs were $6.7 million for the first quarter of 2026, which included a $2.6 million charge-off related to a nonperforming commercial real estate loan that moved to held for sale during the quarter and $2.1 million of fully reimbursed charge-offs related to our third-party lending portfolio.
Allowance for credit losses on loans was $67.9 million, or 1.56% of total loans, at March 31, 2026, compared to an allowance of $69.2 million, or 1.59% of total loans, at December 31, 2025.
