| ▪ Floating rate loans include any loans (including back-to-back swaps) tied to an index that reprices within 90 days; Including interest rate hedges of $500 million, $1.8 billion or ~26% of the loan portfolio is effectively floating rate ▪ Through 2026, loans to reprice ~159-199 bps higher assuming index values as of September 30, 2024 ▪ ~19% of loans reprice (~26% including all loan portfolio hedges) with every Fed move and an additional 11-15% reprice annually $1,264 $226 7.27% $777 $730 4.36% 4.33% 4.04% 7.05% 6.21% 5.92% 6.03% - 200 400 600 800 1,0 00 1,2 00 1,4 00 Floating Remainder of 2024 2025 2026 Adjustable Loan Repricing Maturing Fixed Rate Total Loan Repricing Current Rate Repricing Rate Effective Floating Rate Loans are ~26% of the Loan Portfolio; Significant Repricing to Occur Through 2026 13 Loan Repricing ($ Millions) +185 bps +159 bps +199 bps

| 16 Net Interest Margin to Improve Over Time ▪ Short-term NIM improvement driven by: – Significant CD repricing at lower roll over rates (likely 50-100 bps in 4Q24) – Meaningful real estate loan repricing 150-200 bps higher over the next couple of years – Approximately 50% of the non-maturity deposits had rates lowered by 50 bps on October 1st – Floating rate assets and swaps will serve as a potential offset to the funding reductions ▪ Long-term NIM improvement driven by: – Flattening to positive sloped yield curve • Our interest rate risk modeling shows a 200 bps steepening of the yield curve (September 30, 2024 base) shows net interest income increasing by approximate $4 million in the first year and $20 million in the second year – Continued remixing of earning assets and funding Net Interest Margin to Improve Over Time But the Trend Could be Bumpy

| ▪ Balance Sheet – Expect stable loans – Focused on improving funding mix; expect normal historical funding patterns ▪ Net Interest Income – NIM outlook is largely dependent on deposit rate competition • If the market moves rates inline with rate cuts, our NIM should be relatively stable to slightly positive • If the market lags rate cuts, our NIM could have some near-term pressure before expanding over the longer term – $1.5 billion of retail CDs to mature over the next year at a weighted average rate of 4.65%; closer to market rates; $647 million in 4Q24 at 4.96% – $226 million of loans scheduled to reprice upwards 185 bps in 4Q24 and $777 million, up 159 bps in 2025 (based on September 30, 2024 index values) 18 Outlook ▪ Noninterest Income – Approximately $60 million of back-to-back swaps in the loan pipeline; banking services fee income to benefit in the quarter as these loans close – In the process of completing a 1035 BOLI exchange; BOLI income is estimated to be $2.1 million in 4Q24, $1.4 million in 1Q25, $3.3 million in 2Q25, and $2.2 million in 3Q25 (and thereafter); estimates could change based on timing of settlements ▪ Noninterest Expense – 2024 core noninterest expense expected to increase mid single digits from the 2023 base of $151.4 million as we continue to make investments in the business to improve long term profitability ▪ Effective Tax Rate – Expecting mid 20s% for 2024

| Reconciliation of GAAP Earnings and Core Earnings 34 Non-cash Fair Value Adjustments to GAAP Earnings The variance in GAAP and core earnings is partly driven by the impact of non-cash net gains and losses from fair value adjustments. These fair value adjustments relate primarily to borrowings carried at fair value under the fair value option. Core Net Income, Core Diluted EPS, Core ROAE, Core ROAA, Pre-provision, Pre-tax Net Revenue, Core Net Interest Income FTE, Core Net Interest Margin FTE, Core Interest Income and Yield on Total Loans, Core Noninterest Income, Core Noninterest Expense and Tangible Book Value per common share are each non-GAAP measures used in this presentation. A reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures appears below in tabular form. The Company believes that these measures are useful for both investors and management to understand the effects of certain interest and noninterest items and provide an alternative view of the Company's performance over time and in comparison, to the Company's competitors. These measures should not be viewed as a substitute for net income. The Company believes that tangible book value per common share is useful for both investors and management as this measure is commonly used by financial institutions, regulators and investors to measure the capital adequacy of financial institutions. The Company believes this measure facilitates comparison of the quality and composition of the Company's capital over time and in comparison, to its competitors. This measure should not be viewed as a substitute for total shareholders' equity. These non-GAAP measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results reported under GAAP. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
