Safe Harbor Statement and Disclaimer Forward-Looking Statements In this presentation, “we,” “our,” “us,” “Five Star,” or “the Company” refers to Five Star Bancorp, a California corporation, and our consolidated subsidiaries, including Five Star Bank, a California state- chartered bank, unless the context indicates that we refer only to the parent company, Five Star Bancorp. This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements represent plans, estimates, objectives, goals, guidelines, expectations, intentions, projections, and statements of the Company’s beliefs concerning future events, business plans, objectives, expected operating results, and the assumptions upon which those statements are based. Forward-looking statements include without limitation, any statement that may predict, forecast, indicate, or imply future results, performance, or achievements, and are typically identified with words such as “may,” “could,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “aim,” “intend,” “plan,” or words or phases of similar meaning. The Company cautions that the forward-looking statements are based largely on the Company’s expectations and are subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties that are subject to change based on factors which are, in many instances, beyond the Company’s control. Such forward-looking statements are based on various assumptions (some of which may be beyond the Company’s control) and are subject to risks and uncertainties, which change over time, and other factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those currently anticipated. New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict their occurrence or how they will affect the Company. If one or more of the factors affecting the Company’s forward-looking information and statements proves incorrect, then the Company’s actual results, performance, or achievements could differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, forward-looking information and statements contained in this presentation. Therefore, the Company cautions you not to place undue reliance on the Company’s forward-looking information and statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements are set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 under the section entitled “Risk Factors,” and other documents filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time. The Company disclaims any duty to revise or update the forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, to reflect actual results or changes in the factors affecting the forward-looking statements, except as specifically required by law. Industry Information This presentation includes statistical and other industry and market data that we obtained from government reports and other third-party sources. Our internal data, estimates, and forecasts are based on information obtained from government reports, trade, and business organizations and other contacts in the markets in which we operate and our management’s understanding of industry conditions. Although we believe that this information (including the industry publications and third-party research, surveys, and studies) is accurate and reliable, we have not independently verified such information. In addition, estimates, forecasts, and assumptions are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk due to a variety of factors. Finally, forward-looking information obtained from these sources is subject to the same qualifications and the additional uncertainties regarding the other forward-looking statements in this presentation. Unaudited Financial Data Numbers contained in this presentation for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 and for other quarterly periods are unaudited. Additionally, all figures presented as year-to-date, except for periods that represent a full fiscal year ended December 31, represent unaudited results. As a result, subsequent information may cause a change in certain accounting estimates and other financial information, including the Company’s allowance for credit losses, fair values, and income taxes. Non-GAAP Financial Measures The Company uses financial information in its analysis of the Company’s performance that is not in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors that is supplementary to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP. However, the Company acknowledges that its non-GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations. See the appendix to this presentation for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures. First Quarter 2025 Investor Presentation | 2

Appendix: Non-GAAP Reconciliation (Unaudited) The Company uses financial information in its analysis of the Company's performance that is not in conformity with GAAP. The Company believes that these non- GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors that is supplementary to the Company's financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP. However, the Company acknowledges that its non-GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations. As such, investors should not view these disclosures as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, these non-GAAP measures are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP financial measures that other banking companies use. Other banking companies may use names similar to those the Company uses for the non-GAAP financial measures the Company discloses but may calculate them differently. Investors should understand how the Company and other companies each calculate their non-GAAP financial measures when making comparisons. Average loan yield, excluding PPP loans, is defined as the daily average loan yield, excluding PPP loans, and includes both performing and nonperforming loans. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is average loan yield. Management believes that average loan yield, excluding PPP loans, is a useful financial measure because it enables management, investors, and others to assess the Company's ability to manage yield on core loans. We had no PPP loans nor interest and fee income on PPP loans for the periods shown in this presentation other than the years ended December 31, 2020, 2021, and 2022. As a result, average loan yield, excluding PPP loans, is the same as daily average loan yield for all periods presented other than the years ended December 31, 2020, 2021, and 2022. Reconciliations for such periods are provided below. Total assets, excluding PPP loans, is defined as total assets less PPP loans. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is total assets. Management believes that total assets, excluding PPP loans, is a useful financial measure because it enables management, investors, and others to assess the Company's ability to manage core assets. We had no PPP loans as of the period ends shown in this presentation other than as of December 31, 2020 and 2021. As a result, total assets, excluding PPP loans, is the same as total assets for all periods presented, other than as of December 31, 2020 and 2021. Reconciliations for such periods are provided below. Pre-tax, pre-provision income is defined as pre-tax income plus provision for credit losses. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is pre-tax income. Management believes that pre-tax, pre-provision income is a useful financial measure because it enables management, investors, and others to assess the Company's ability to generate operating profit and capital. Tangible book value per share is defined as total shareholders’ equity less goodwill and other intangible assets, divided by the outstanding number of common shares at the end of the period. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is book value per share. Management believes that tangible book value per share is a useful financial measure because it enables management, investors, and others to assess the Company's value and use of equity. We had no goodwill or other intangible assets at the end of any period indicated. As a result, tangible book value per share is the same as book value per share at the end of each of the periods indicated. First Quarter 2025 Investor Presentation | 31
