Risks and Uncertainties

Ongoing conflicts between Russia and Ukraine, and Israel and Hamas, continue to contribute to economic uncertainty and geopolitical instability. Concern about the national commercial real estate market and the impact a downturn in this sector could have on the banking industry continues to be expressed, as does concern about a re-kindling of inflation after higher than expected CPI prints to begin 2024. Any or all could have negative downstream effects on the Company's operating results, the extent of which is indeterminable at this time.

Events occurring subsequent to March 31, 2024, have been evaluated as to their potential impact to the financial statements.
