Correction of Immaterial Classification Error

During the third quarter of 2022, the Company determined that a deposit account classified as a noninterest-bearing demand deposit as of December 31, 2021 should have been classified as an interest-bearing demand deposit. The Company has changed the classification of this deposit account on its December 31, 2021 consolidated balance sheet, which resulted in a $20.3 million decrease from what was previously reported in the Company's 2021 Form 10-K in noninterest-bearing demand deposits with a corresponding increase in interest-bearing demand deposits of the same amount. This change in classification did not affect the Company's reported total assets, deposits, or earnings as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 on its consolidated balance sheet and statement of operations. The Company evaluated and concluded that its previously issued financial statements were not materially misstated due to this change in classification.
