NOTE 1: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
General
Auburn National Bancorporation, Inc. (the “Company”) provides a full
range of banking services to individuals
and
commercial customers in Lee County,
Alabama and surrounding areas through its wholly owned subsidiary,
AuburnBank
(the “Bank”). The Company does not have any segments other than banking
that are considered material.
Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
The unaudited consolidated financial statements in this report have been
prepared in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information.
Accordingly, these financial statements
do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete
financial statements.
The unaudited
consolidated financial statements include, in the opinion of management,
all adjustments necessary to present a fair
statement of the financial position and the results of operations for all periods presented.
All such adjustments are of a
normal recurring nature. The results of operations in the interim statements are not
necessarily indicative of the results of
operations that the Company and its subsidiaries may achieve for future interim
periods or the entire year. For further
information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes included
in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts
of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.
Significant intercompany transactions and accounts are eliminated in
consolidation.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires
management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures
of contingent assets and liabilities as of
the balance sheet date and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period.
Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in
the near term
include the determination of allowance for credit losses on loans and
investment securities, the fair value of financial
instruments, and the valuation of deferred tax assets and other real estate owned
(“OREO”).
Subsequent Events
The Company has evaluated the effects of events and
transactions through the date of this filing that have occurred
subsequent to September 30, 2025.
The Company does not believe there were any material subsequent events during
this
period that would have required further recognition or disclosure in
the unaudited consolidated financial statements
included in this report.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts reported in prior periods have been reclassified to
conform to the current-period presentation.
These
reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s
previously reported net earnings or total stockholders’ equity.
Accounting Developments
I
n the first nine months of 2025, the Company did not adopt any new accounting
guidance.

For the securities in the previous table, the Company assesses whether or not
it intends to sell the security, or more
likely
than not will be required to sell the security,
before recovery of its amortized cost basis which would require a write-down
to fair value through net income.
Because the Company currently does not intend to sell those securities that have an
unrealized loss at September 30, 2025, and it is not more-likely-than-not
that the Company will be required to sell the
securities before recovery of their amortized cost bases, which may be
maturity, the Company
has determined that no write-
down is necessary.
In addition, the Company evaluates whether any portion of the decline in fair
value of securities is the
result of credit deterioration, which would require the recognition of
an allowance for credit losses.
Such evaluations
consider the extent to which the amortized cost of the security exceeds
its fair value, changes in credit ratings and any other
known adverse conditions related to the specific security.
The unrealized losses associated with securities at September 30,
2025 are driven by changes in interest rates and are not due to the credit quality
of the securities, and accordingly,
no
allowance for credit losses is considered necessary related to securities at September
30, 2025.
These securities will
continue to be monitored as a part of the Company’s
ongoing evaluation of credit quality.
Management evaluates the
financial performance of the issuers on a quarterly basis to determine if
it is probable that the issuers can make all
contractual principal and interest payments.
Realized Gains and Losses
The Company had no realized gains or losses on sale of securities during the quarter
and nine months ended September 30,
2025 and 2024, respectively.

Loans secured by real estate were approximately 88.5% of the Company’s
total loan portfolio at September 30, 2025.
At
September 30, 2025, the Company’s
geographic loan distribution was concentrated primarily in Lee County,
Alabama, and
surrounding areas.
The loan portfolio segment is defined as the level at which an entity develops and
documents a systematic method for
determining its allowance for credit losses. As part of the Company’s
quarterly assessment of the allowance, the loan
portfolio included the following portfolio segments: commercial and
industrial, construction and land development,
commercial real estate, residential real estate, and consumer installment. Where
appropriate, the Company’s loan portfolio
segments are further disaggregated into classes. A class is generally determined
based on the initial measurement attribute,
risk characteristics of the loan, and an entity’s
method for monitoring and determining credit risk.
The following describes
the risk characteristics relevant to each of the portfolio segments and classes.
Commercial and industrial (“C&I”) —
includes loans to finance business operations, equipment purchases, or
other needs
for small and medium-sized commercial customers. Also
included in this category are loans to finance agricultural
production.
Generally, the primary source of repayment
is the cash flow from business operations and activities of the
borrower.
Table of Contents
11
Construction and land development (“C&D”) —
includes both loans and credit lines for the purpose of purchasing,
carrying,
and developing land into commercial developments or residential subdivisions.
Also included are loans and credit
lines for construction of residential, multi-family,
and commercial buildings. Generally,
the primary source of repayment is
dependent upon the sale or refinance of the real estate collateral.
Commercial real estate
(“CRE”) —
includes loans in these classes:
●
Owner occupied
– includes loans secured by business facilities to finance business operations, equipment
and
owner-occupied facilities primarily for small and medium-sized
commercial customers.
Generally, the primary
source of repayment is the cash flow from business operations and activities of
the borrower, who owns the
property.
●
Hotel/motel
– includes loans for hotels and motels.
Generally, the primary source
of repayment is dependent upon
income generated from the hotel/motel securing the loan.
The underwriting of these loans takes into consideration
the occupancy and rental rates, as well as the financial health of the borrower.
●
Multi-family
– primarily includes loans to finance income-producing
multi-family properties. These include loans
for 5 or more unit residential properties and apartments leased to residents.
Generally,
the primary source of
repayment is dependent upon income generated from the real estate collateral. The
underwriting of these loans
takes into consideration the occupancy and rental rates, as well as the financial
health of the respective borrowers.
●
Other
– primarily includes loans to finance income-producing commercial
properties other than hotels/motels and
multi-family properties, and which are not owner occupied.
Loans in this class include loans for neighborhood
retail centers,
medical and professional offices, single retail stores, industrial
buildings, and warehouses leased to
local and other businesses. Generally,
the primary source of repayment is dependent upon income generated from
the real estate collateral. The underwriting of these loans takes into consideration
the occupancy and rental rates,
as well as the financial health of the borrower.
Residential real estate (“RRE”) —
includes loans in these two classes:
●
Consumer mortgage
– primarily includes
first or second lien mortgages and home equity lines of credit to
consumers that are secured by a primary residence or second home. These loans are underwritten
in accordance
with the Bank’s general loan
policies and procedures which require, among other things, proper documentation
of
each borrower’s financial condition, satisfactory credit
history,
and property value.
●
Investment property
– primarily includes loans to finance income-producing 1-4 family residential
properties.
Generally,
the primary source of repayment is dependent upon income generated from
leasing the property
securing the loan. The underwriting of these loans takes into consideration
the rental rates and property values, as
well as the financial health of the borrowers.
Consumer installment —
includes loans to individuals,
which may be secured by personal property or are unsecured.
Loans
include personal lines of credit, automobile loans, and other retail loans.
These loans are underwritten in accordance with
the Bank’s general loan policies and
procedures which require, among other things, proper documentation
of each
borrower’s financial condition, satisfactory credit history,
and, if applicable, property values.

Credit Quality Indicators
The credit quality of the loan portfolio is summarized no less frequently than
quarterly using categories similar to the
standard asset classification system used by the federal banking agencies.
These categories are utilized to develop the
associated allowance for credit losses using historical losses adjusted for
qualitative and environmental factors and are
defined as follows:
●
Pass – loans which are well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity
of the obligor (or guarantors, if
any) or by the fair value, less the estimated cost to acquire and sell any underlying
collateral.
●
Special Mention – loans with potential weakness that may,
if not reversed or corrected, weaken the credit or
inadequately protect the Company’s
position at some future date. These loans are not adversely classified and do
not expose an institution to sufficient risk to warrant an adverse classification.
●
Substandard Accruing – loans that exhibit a well-defined weakness which
presently jeopardizes debt repayment,
even though they are currently performing. These loans are characterized
by the distinct possibility that the
Company may incur a loss in the future if these weaknesses are not corrected.
●
Nonaccrual – includes loans where management has determined that full payment
of principal and interest is not
expected.
Substandard accrual and nonaccrual loans are often collectively referred
to as “classified.”

NOTE 4: MORTGAGE SERVICING
RIGHTS, NET
Mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) are recognized based on the fair
value of the servicing rights on the date the
corresponding mortgage loans are sold.
An estimate of the fair value of the Company’s
MSRs is determined using
assumptions that market participants would use in estimating future net
servicing income, including estimates of
prepayment speeds, discount rates, default rates, costs to service, escrow account
earnings, contractual servicing fee
income, ancillary income, and late fees.
Subsequent to the date of transfer, the Company
has elected to measure its MSRs
under the amortization method.
Under the amortization method, MSRs are amortized in proportion to, and over
the period
of, estimated net servicing income.
The Company generally sells, without recourse, conforming, fixed-rate, closed-end,
residential mortgages to Fannie Mae,
where the Company services the mortgages sold and records MSRs.
MSRs are included in other assets on the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
The Company evaluates MSRs for impairment on a quarterly basis.
Impairment is determined by stratifying MSRs into
groupings based on predominant risk characteristics, such as interest rate and loan
type.
If, by individual stratum, the
carrying amount of the MSRs exceeds fair value, a valuation allowance is established.
The valuation allowance is adjusted
as the fair value changes.
Changes in the valuation allowance are recognized in earnings as a component
of mortgage
lending income.
The following table details the changes in amortized MSRs and the related valuation
allowance for the respective periods.

NOTE 5: FAIR VALUE
Fair Value
Hierarchy
“Fair value” is defined by ASC 820,
Fair Value
Measurements and Disclosures
, and focuses on the exit price, i.e., the price
that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
occurring in the principal
market (or most advantageous market in the absence of a principal market)
for an asset or liability at the measurement date.
GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy for valuation inputs that gives the highest
priority to quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs.
The fair value hierarchy is as
follows:
Level 1—inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices, unadjusted,
for identical assets or liabilities in active
markets.
Level 2—inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar
assets and liabilities in active markets,
quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not
active, or inputs that are observable for the
asset or liability, either directly
or indirectly.
Table of Contents
21
Level 3—inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and reflect
the Company’s own assumptions about
the
inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
Level changes in fair value measurements
Transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy
are generally recognized at the end of each reporting period.
The
Company monitors the valuation techniques utilized for each category
of financial assets and liabilities to ascertain when
transfers between levels have been affected.
The nature of the Company’s financial
assets and liabilities generally is such
that transfers in and out of any level are expected to be infrequent.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, there
were no transfers between levels and no changes in valuation techniques for
the Company’s financial assets and liabilities.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring
basis
Securities available-for-sale
Fair values of securities available for sale were primarily measured
using Level 2 inputs.
For these securities, the Company
obtains pricing data from third-party pricing services.
These third-party pricing services consider observable data that may
include broker/dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, benchmark yields,
reported trades for similar securities, market
consensus prepayment speeds, credit information, and the securities’ terms
and conditions.
On a quarterly basis,
management reviews the pricing data received from the third-party pricing
services for reasonableness given current market
conditions.
As part of its review, management may
obtain non-binding third-party broker/dealer quotes to validate the fair
value measurements.
In addition, management will periodically submit pricing information
provided by the third-party
pricing services to another independent valuation firm on a sample basis.
This independent valuation firm will compare the
prices
provided by the third-party pricing service with its own prices
and will review the significant assumptions and
valuation methodologies used with management.
The following table presents the balances of the assets and liabilities measured at fair
value on a recurring basis as of
September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively,
by caption, on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets by
ASC 820 valuation hierarchy (as described above).

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring
basis
Loans held for sale
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. Fair values of loans
held for sale are determined using
quoted secondary market prices for similar loans.
Loans held for sale are classified within Level 2 of the fair value
hierarchy.
Collateral dependent loans
Collateral dependent loans are measured at the fair value of the collateral securing
the loan less estimated selling costs. The
fair value of real estate collateral is determined based on real estate appraisals which
are generally based on recent sales of
comparable properties which are then adjusted for property specific factors.
Non-real estate collateral is valued based on
various sources, including third party asset valuations and internally determined
values based on cost adjusted for
depreciation and other judgmentally determined discount factors. Collateral dependent
loans are classified within Level 3 of
the hierarchy due to the unobservable inputs used in determining their fair
value such as collateral values and the borrower's
underlying financial condition.
Mortgage servicing rights, net
MSRs, net, included in other assets on the accompanying consolidated balance
sheets, are carried at the lower of cost or
estimated fair value.
MSRs do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices.
To determine the fair
value of
MSRs, the Company engages an independent third party.
The independent third party’s valuation
model calculates the
present value of estimated future net servicing income using assumptions that
market participants would use in estimating
future net servicing income, including estimates of mortgage prepayment
speeds, discount rates, default rates, costs to
service, escrow account earnings, contractual servicing fee income,
ancillary income, and late fees.
Periodically, the
Company will review broker surveys and other market research to validate
significant assumptions used in the model.
The
significant unobservable inputs include mortgage prepayment speeds
or the constant prepayment rate (“CPR”) and the
weighted average discount rate.
Because the valuation of MSRs requires the use of significant unobservable inputs,
all of
the Company’s MSRs are classified within
Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.
The following table presents the balances of the assets and liabilities measured at fair
value on a nonrecurring basis as of
September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively,

Fair Value
of Financial Instruments
ASC 825,
Financial Instruments
, requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments,
whether or not
recognized on the face of the balance sheet, where it is practicable to
estimate that value. The assumptions used in the
estimation of the fair value of the Company’s
financial instruments are explained below.
Where quoted market prices are
not available, fair values are based on estimates using discounted cash flow
analyses. Discounted cash flows can be
significantly affected by the assumptions used, including
the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. The
following fair value estimates cannot be substantiated by comparison to
independent markets and should not be considered
representative of the liquidation value of the Company’s
financial instruments, but rather are good-faith estimates of the fair
value of financial instruments held by the Company.
ASC 825 excludes certain financial instruments and all nonfinancial
instruments from its disclosure requirements.
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating
the fair value of its financial instruments:
Loans, net
Fair values for loans were calculated using discounted cash flows. The discount
rates reflected current rates at which similar
loans would be made for the same remaining maturities. Expected
future cash flows were projected based on contractual
cash flows, adjusted for estimated prepayments.
The fair value of loans was measured using an exit price notion.
Loans held for sale
Fair values of loans held for sale are determined using quoted secondary
market prices for similar loans.
Time Deposits
Fair values for time deposits were estimated using discounted cash
flows.
The discount rates were based on rates currently
offered for deposits with similar remaining maturities.

The carrying value, related estimated fair value,
and placement in the fair value hierarchy of the Company’s
financial
instruments at September 30, 2025
and December 31, 2024 are presented
below.
This table excludes financial instruments
for which the carrying amount approximates fair value.
Financial assets for which fair value approximates carrying value
included cash and cash equivalents.
Financial liabilities for which fair value approximates carrying value
included
noninterest-bearing demand deposits, interest-bearing demand deposits, and
savings deposits.
Fair value approximates
carrying value in these financial liabilities due to these products having
no stated maturity.
Additionally, financial
liabilities for which fair value approximates carrying value included overnight
borrowings such as federal funds purchased
and securities sold under agreements to repurchase.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF
OPERATIONS
General
Auburn National Bancorporation, Inc. (the “Company”) is a bank holding
company registered with the Board of Governors
of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”) under the Bank Holding
Company Act of 1956, as amended (the
“BHC Act”). The Company was incorporated in Delaware in 1990, and in
1994 it succeeded its Alabama predecessor as the
bank holding company controlling AuburnBank, an Alabama state member
bank with its principal office in Auburn,
Alabama (the “Bank”). The Company and its predecessor have controlled
the Bank since 1984.
As a bank holding
company, the Company
may diversify into a broader range of financial services and other business activities than
currently
are permitted to the Bank under applicable laws and regulations.
The holding company structure also provides greater
financial and operating flexibility than is presently permitted to the
Bank.
The Bank has operated continuously since 1907 and currently conducts its business
primarily in East Alabama, including
Lee County and surrounding areas.
The Bank has been a member of the Federal Reserve System since April 1995.
The
Bank’s primary regulators are the
Federal Reserve and the Alabama Superintendent of Banks (the “Alabama
Superintendent”).
The Bank has been a member of the FHLB of Atlanta since 1991. Certain of the statements
made in this
discussion and analysis and elsewhere, including information incorporated
herein by reference to other documents, are
“forward-looking statements” as more fully described under “Special Cautionary
Notice Regarding Forward-Looking
Statements” below.
The following discussion and analysis is intended to provide a better
understanding of various factors related to the results
of operations and financial condition of the Company and the Bank.
This discussion is intended to supplement and
highlight information contained in the accompanying unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements and related
notes for the quarters and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024,
as well as the information contained in our
annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and our
interim reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters
ended March 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025.

similar words and expressions of the future.
These forward-looking
statements may not be realized due to a variety of factors, including, without
limitation:
●
the effects of future economic, business and market conditions and
changes, foreign, domestic and locally,
including inflation, seasonality,
natural disasters or climate change, such as rising sea and water levels, hurricanes
and tornadoes, epidemics or pandemics including supply chain disruptions,
inventory volatility, and changes in
consumer behaviors;

●
governmental monetary and fiscal policies, including taxes, federal
deficit spending and the debt required to fund
such spending, changes in monetary policies in response to inflation and changes
in prices and unemployment,
including changes in the Federal Reserve’s
target federal funds rate and changes in the Federal Reserve’s
holdings
of securities through quantitative tightening or easing; and the timing and speed
of any changes in furtherance of
the Federal Reserve’s long-term inflation
target of 2% while supporting maximum employment;
●
the effects of the federal government shutdown that began
October 1, 2025 due to federal budget disputes, which
continues and the effects of any resolution of such disputes;
●
legislative, executive branch and regulatory changes, including changes
by executive orders, the possible
reorganization and/or consolidation of the bank regulatory
agencies, the SEC and/or the CFPB, changes in the
leadership and personnel, including reductions in the number and experience
of personnel, at the bank and
securities regulators and the CFPB, oversight by the Office of Management
and Budget of these agencies, freezes
on changes in regulations and interpretations, numerous new Executive Orders,
and the uncertain effects of all
these, including the costs and benefits of such changes;
●
the effects of the potential privatization of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
and their release from conservatorship on
the mortgage markets and us as an originator,
seller and servicer of residential mortgage loans;
●
recent Supreme Court rulings that may lead to more court challenges to regulations
and regulatory actions, which
may cause uncertainty,
wasted implementation costs and time by the industry,
and lengthy delays until ultimate
resolution;
●
changes in banking, securities and tax laws, regulations and rules and their
application and enforcement by the
regulators, including capital and liquidity requirements, and changes in
the scope and cost of FDIC insurance;
●
changes in accounting pronouncements and interpretations;
●
the failure of assumptions and estimates, including those used in the Company’s
CECL models to establish our
allowance for credit losses and estimate asset impairments, as well as differences
in, and changes to, economic,
market and credit conditions, including changes in borrowers’ credit
risks and payment behaviors from those used
in our CECL models and loan portfolio reviews;
●
the risks of changes in market interest rates and the shape of the yield curve on customer
behaviors; the levels,
composition and costs of deposits, loan demand and mortgage loan originations;
the values and liquidity of loan
collateral, our securities portfolio and interest-sensitive assets and
liabilities; and the risks and uncertainty of the
amounts realizable on collateral;
●
the risks of increases in market interest rates creating unrealized losses on our
securities available for sale, which
adversely affect our stockholders’ equity for financial
reporting purposes and our tangible equity;
●
changes in borrower liquidity and credit risks, and changes in savings, deposit and
payment behaviors;
●
changes in the availability and cost of credit and capital in the financial markets, and
the types of instruments that
may be included as capital for regulatory purposes;
●
changes in the prices, values and sales volumes of residential and commercial
real estate;
●
the effects of competition from a wide variety of local, regional,
national and other providers of financial,
investment and insurance services, including the disruptive effects
of financial technology and other competitors
who are not subject to the same regulation, including capital and liquidity
requirements, internal controls, and
supervision and examination, as the Company and the Bank, and competition
from credit unions, which are not
subject to federal income taxation;

●
legislation such as the federal GENIUS Act on stablecoins signed into law on
July 18, 2025, and the proposed
CLARITY Act and the Anti-CBDC Surveillance Act bills being considered
by Congress, more permissive
policies, regulation and/or enforcement regarding
digital assets, such as cyber currency and stable coins, including
the chartering of new depository institutions focused on crypto coins
and which creates additional competition to
banks and potential disintermediation of deposits, and greater risks to
the payment systems that the banking
industry, including the
Company, relies on, and greater
risks of fraud and theft of digital assets and their effects on
customers, other financial institutions, including our counterparties, financial
stability and confidence in the
financial system, generally;

the risks that our deferred tax assets (“DTAs”)
included in “other assets” on our consolidated balance sheets, if
any, could be reduced
if estimates of future taxable income from our operations and tax planning strategies
are less
than currently estimated, and sales of our capital stock could trigger a reduction
in the amount of net operating loss

Financial Summary
The Company’s net earnings were $5.6
million for the first nine months of 2025, a 16% increase compared to $4.8 million
for the first nine months of 2024.
Basic and diluted earnings per share were $1.60 per share for the first nine months
of
2025, compared to $1.38 per share for the first nine months of 2024.
Net interest
income (tax-equivalent) was $22.0 million for the first nine months
of 2025, a 9% increase compared to $20.2
million for the first nine months of 2024.
This increase was primarily due to an increase in the Company’s
net interest
margin and an increase in average interest-earning assets.
The Company’s net interest margin
(tax-equivalent) was 3.26%
for the first nine months of 2025 compared to 3.05% for the first nine months
of 2024.
This increase was primarily due to
improvements in our yields on interest-earning assets, and a decrease in our
cost of interest-bearing deposits.
See “Results
of Operations – Average
Balance Sheet and Interest Rates” and “Net Interest Income and Margin”
below.
At September 30, 2025, the Company’s
allowance for credit losses was $6.7 million, or 1.20% of total loans, compared
to
$6.9 million, or 1.22% of total loans, at December 31, 2024, and $6.9 million,
or 1.22% of total loans, at September 30,
2024.
The Company recorded a negative provision for credit losses during the
first nine months of 2025 of $152 thousand,
compared to a charge to provision of $84 thousand during the first
nine months of 2024.
The provision for credit losses
under CECL reflects the Company’s
evaluation of its credit risk profile and its future economic outlook and forecasts.
Our
CECL model is largely influenced by economic factors including,
the anticipated Alabama unemployment rate, which may
be affected by government policies, including monetary,
fiscal and other policies, including tariffs.
Noninterest income was $2.4 million in the first nine months of 2025,
compared to $2.6 million in the first nine months of
2024.
The decrease was primarily related to a decrease in mortgage lending income
and other noninterest income.
Noninterest expense was $17.4 million in the first nine months of 2025,
compared to $16.7 million for the first nine months
of 2024.
The increase was primarily related to increases in salaries and benefits expense and
other noninterest expense.
These increases were partially offset by a decrease in net occupancy
and equipment expense.
Income tax expense was $1.5 million for the first nine months of 2025
compared to $1.2 million for the first nine months of
2024.
The Company's effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2025
was 21.16%, compared to 19.48% in the first nine
months of 2024.
The Company’s effective
income tax rate is affected principally by tax-exempt earnings from
the
Company’s investments
in municipal securities and loans, bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”),
and New Markets Tax
Credits (“NMTCs”).
The Company paid cash dividends of $0.81 per share in the first nine months of
2025 and 2024.
At September 30, 2025,
the Bank’s regulatory capital
ratios were well above the minimum amounts required to be “well capitalized”
under current
regulatory standards with a total risk-based capital ratio of 16.49%,
a tier 1 leverage ratio of 10.72% and a common equity
tier 1 (“CET1”) ratio of 15.51% at September 30, 2025.
See “Balance Sheet Analysis – Capital Adequacy”.
For the third quarter of 2025, net earnings were $2.2 million, or $0.64
per share, compared to $1.7 million, or $0.50 per
share, for the third quarter of 2024.
Net interest income (tax-equivalent) was $7.6 million for the third quarter of 2025
compared to $6.8 million for the third quarter of 2024.
The increase was due to growth in average interest-earning assets
and improvements in our net interest margin.
The Company’s net interest margin
(tax-equivalent) was 3.30% in the third
quarter of 2025 compared to 3.05% in the third quarter of 2024.
The increase was primarily due to improved yields on
interest-earning assets, and a decrease in our cost of interest-bearing
deposits.
The Company recorded a negative provision
for credit losses of $255 thousand in the third quarter of 2025, compared
to a negative provision for credit losses of $127
thousand in the third quarter of 2024.
Noninterest income was $0.8 million for the third quarter of 2025 and 2024.
Noninterest expense was $5.8 million in the third quarter of 2025,
compared to $5.5
million for the third quarter of 2024.
The increase in noninterest expense was primarily due to increases in salaries and
benefits expense and increases in other
noninterest expense.
Income tax expense was $0.6
million for the third quarter of 2025 compared to $0.5 million for the
third quarter of 2024.
The Company’s effective
tax rate for the third quarter of 2025 was 21.86%, compared to 23.46% in
the third quarter of 2024.

and Rate Variance
Analysis.
Net Interest Income and Margin
Net interest income (tax-equivalent) was $22.0 million for the first nine
months of 2025, a 9% increase compared to $20.2
million for the first nine months of 2024.
This increase was primarily due to an increase in the Company’s
net interest
margin and an increase in average interest-earning assets.
The Company’s net interest margin
(tax-equivalent) was 3.26%
in the first nine months of 2025 compared to 3.05% in the first nine months
of 2024.
This increase was primarily due to
improvements in our yields on interest-earning assets, and a decrease in our
cost of our interest-bearing deposits.
Since
March 2022, the Federal Reserve increased the target federal funds
rate by 525 basis points before announcing a 50-basis
points rate reduction on September 18, 2024, its first decrease in rates since its March 2020 COVID
rate reduction,
followed by two 25 basis points reductions in October and December
2024 and another 25 basis point reduction in
September 2025.
At September 30, 2025, the Federal Reserve’s
target federal funds rate ranged from 4.00% to 4.25%.
The
Federal Reserve further reduced its target federal
funds rate range to 3.75% to 4.00% on October 29, 2025.
The tax-equivalent yield on total interest-earning assets increased by
16 basis points to 4.51% in the first nine months of
2025 compared to 4.35% in the first nine months of 2024.
This increase was primarily due to changes in our asset mix, as
cash and cash equivalents increased and securities declined.
Average interest-earning
assets were $903.2 million during the
first nine months of 2025, a 2% increase compared to $885.6 million
during the first nine months of 2024.
The cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 5 basis points in the first first nine
months of 2025 to 175 basis points,
compared to 180 basis points in the first first nine months of 2024.
Our deposit costs may fluctuate as we compete for
deposit funds against other banks, money market mutual funds, Treasury
securities and other interest-bearing alternative
investments.
Table of Contents
30
The Company continues to deploy various asset liability management
strategies to manage its risks from interest rate
fluctuations. Deposit and loan pricing remain competitive in our
markets.
We believe this challenging
rate environment
will continue throughout the remainder of 2025.
Our ability to compete and manage our deposit costs until our interest-
earning assets reprice
and we generate new loans with current market interest rates will be important
to our net interest
margin during the remainder of 2025.
Provision for Credit Losses
The Company recorded a negative provision for credit losses during the
first nine months of 2025 of $152 thousand,
compared to a charge of $84 thousand during the first nine
months of 2024.
Provision expense is affected by organic loan
growth in our loan portfolio, our internal assessment of the credit quality
of the loan portfolio, our expectations about future
economic conditions and net charge-offs.
Our CECL model is largely influenced by economic factors including,
the
anticipated
Alabama unemployment rate, which may be affected by
government policies, including monetary,
fiscal and
other policies, including tariffs.
The negative provision for the first nine months of 2025 was primarily driven
by
improvements in the economic forecasts utilized in the model, most notably
a reduction in the Alabama unemployment
rate.
The reclassification, upon completion of construction of two multifamily projects,
from the construction and land
development loan segment to the multifamily loan segment, which carries
lower modeled loss rates, also contributed to the
negative provision for credit losses during
the current period.
Our allowance for credit losses reflects an amount we believe appropriate,
based on our allowance assessment
methodology, to adequately
cover all expected credit losses as of the date the allowance is determined.
At September 30,
2025, the Company’s allowance for
credit losses was $6.7 million, or 1.20% of total loans, compared to $6.9 million, or
1.22% of total loans, at December 31, 2024, and $6.9 million, or 1.22% of
total loans, at September 30, 2024.

The Company’s mortgage
lending income includes income from the (1) origination and sale of mortgage
loans and (2)
servicing of mortgage loans. Origination income, net, is comprised
of gains or losses from the sale of the mortgage loans
originated, origination fees, underwriting fees, and other fees associated with
the origination of loans, which are netted
against the commission expense associated with these originations. The
Company’s normal practice is to originate
mortgage loans for sale in the secondary market and to either sell or retain
the associated MSRs when the loan is sold.
MSRs are recognized based on the fair value of the servicing right on
the date the corresponding mortgage loan is sold.
The Company has elected to measure its MSRs under the amortization
method.
Servicing fee income is reported net of any
related amortization expense.
The Company evaluates MSRs for impairment on a quarterly basis.
Impairment is determined by grouping MSRs by
common predominant characteristics, such as interest rate and loan type.
If the aggregate carrying amount of a particular
group of MSRs exceeds the group’s
aggregate fair value, a valuation allowance for that group is established.
The valuation
allowance is adjusted as the fair value changes.
An increase in mortgage interest rates typically results in an increase in the
fair value of the MSRs while a decrease in mortgage interest rates typically results
in a decrease in the fair value of MSRs.
The following table presents a breakdown of the Company’s
mortgage lending income.

The Company’s mortgage
lending income typically fluctuates as mortgage interest rates, housing
sales and refinancings
change.
Origination income decreased in the first nine months of 2025 compared to the first nine months
of 2024 due to a
decrease in mortgage lending demand in our primary market area.
Other noninterest income was $2.4 million for the first nine months of 2025,
compared to $2.6 million for the first nine
months of 2024.
The decrease in other noninterest income was primarily due to decreased fee income
on reciprocal
deposits sold through the Intrafi network.

Income Tax
Expense
Income tax expense was $1.5 million for the first nine months of 2025
compared to $1.2 million for the first nine months of
2024.
The Company's effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2025
was 21.16%, compared to 19.48% in the first nine
months of 2024.
The Company’s effective
income tax rate is affected principally by tax-exempt earnings from
the
Company’s investments
in municipal securities and loans, BOLI, and NMTCs.
BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS
Securities
Securities available-for-sale were $236.4 million at September 30, 2025,
compared to $243.0 million at December 31,
2024.
This decrease reflects the effects of an $18.0 million decrease in the
amortized cost basis of securities available-for-
sale and an increase in the fair value of securities available-for-sale of
$11.4 million.
Unrealized losses on securities
declined 29% in the first nine months of 2025, primarily due to decreases in market
interest rates.
The average annualized tax-equivalent yields earned on total securities were 2.24
%
in the first nine months of 2025
compared to 2.26% in the first nine months of 2024.

Total loans were $557.9

at December 31,
2024.
Four loan categories represented the majority of the loan portfolio at September
30, 2025: commercial real estate
(54%), residential real estate (21%), construction and land development (14%)
and commercial and industrial (10%).
Approximately 21% of the Company’s
commercial real estate loans were classified as owner-occupied at September 30,
2025.
Table of Contents
32
Within the residential real estate portfolio segment,
the Company had junior lien mortgages of approximately $12.2 million,
or 2% of total loans,
and $11.2 million, or 2%, of total loans at September 30,
2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
For residential real estate mortgage loans with a consumer purpose, the
Company had no loans that required interest only
payments at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The Company’s
residential real estate mortgage portfolio does
not include any option or hybrid ARM loans, subprime loans, or any material
amount of other consumer mortgage products
which are generally viewed as high risk.
The average yield earned on loans and loans held for sale was 5.48% in the first nine
months of 2025 and 5.18% in the first
nine months of 2024.
The specific economic and credit risks associated with our loan portfolio include,
but are not limited to, the effects of
current economic conditions, including the levels of market interest rates, supply
chain disruptions, commercial office
occupancy levels, housing supply shortages, and effects of
inflation on our borrowers’ cash flows, real estate market sales
volumes and liquidity,
valuations used in making loans and evaluating collateral, availability and
cost of financing
properties, real estate industry concentrations, competitive pressures from
a wide range of other lenders, deterioration in
certain credits, interest rate fluctuations, reduced collateral values or
non-existent collateral, title defects, in accurate
appraisals, financial deterioration of borrowers, fraud, and any violation
of applicable laws and regulations. Vario
us
projects financed earlier that were based on lower interest rate assumptions than
currently in effect may not be as profitable
or successful at the higher interest rates currently in effect and which
may exist in the future.
The Company attempts to reduce these economic and credit risks through its
loan-to-value guidelines for collateralized
loans, investigating the creditworthiness of borrowers and monitoring borrowers’
financial position. Also, we have
established and periodically review,
lending policies and procedures. Banking regulations limit a bank’s
credit exposure by
prohibiting unsecured loan relationships that exceed 10% of its capital; or
20% of capital, if loans in excess of 10% of
capital are fully secured. Under these regulations, we are prohibited from having
secured loan relationships in excess of
approximately $23.3 million.
Furthermore, we have an internal limit for aggregate credit exposure (loans
outstanding plus
unfunded commitments) to a single borrower of $20.9 million. Our
loan policy requires that the Loan Committee of the
Board of Directors approve any loan relationships that exceed this internal
limit.
At September 30, 2025, the Bank had no
loan relationships exceeding our internal limit.
We periodically
analyze our commercial and industrial and commercial real estate loan
portfolios to determine if a
concentration of credit risk exists in any one or more industries. We
use classification systems broadly accepted by the
financial services industry in order to categorize our commercial borrowers.
Loans to borrowers in each of the following
classes exceeded 25% of the Bank’s
total risk-based capital at September 30, 2025 (and related balances at December
31,
2024).

Allowance for Credit Losses
Our allowance for credit losses was approximately $6.7 million and $6.9
million at September 30, 2025 and December 31,
2024,
respectively, which our management
believed
to be adequate at each of the respective dates. Our allowance for credit
losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.20%
at September 30, 2025, compared to 1.22% at December 31, 2024.
Our CECL models rely largely on projections of macroeconomic
conditions to estimate future credit losses.
Macroeconomic factors used in the model include the Alabama unemployment
rate, the Alabama home price index, the
national commercial real estate price index and the Alabama gross state product.
Projections of these macroeconomic
factors, obtained from an independent third party,
are utilized to predict quarterly rates of default.
Table of Contents
33
Under the CECL methodology the allowance for credit losses is measured on
a collective basis for pools of loans with
similar risk characteristics, and for loans that do not share similar risk characteristics
with the collectively evaluated pools,
evaluations are performed on an individual basis. Losses are predicted over
a period of time determined to be reasonable
and supportable, and at the end of the reasonable and supportable period
losses are reverted to long term historical averages.
At September 30, 2025, reasonable and supportable periods of four
quarters were utilized followed by an eight quarters
straight line reversion period to long term averages.
A summary of the changes in the allowance for credit losses and certain
asset quality ratios for the third quarter of 2025 and
the previous four quarters is presented below.

The 2%
increase in deposits compared to December 31, 2024 was primarily related
to an increase in money market and interest-
bearing checking accounts.
At September 30, 2025 the Company had $33.0 million in reciprocal deposits sold,
compared
to $74.1 million at December 31, 2024.
The Company had no brokered deposits at September 30, 2025 and December 31,
2024.
Noninterest-bearing deposits were $266.8 million, or 29% of total deposits, at
September 30, 2025, compared to
$260.9 million, or 29% of total deposits at December 31, 2024.
The average rate paid on total interest-bearing deposits was 1.75% in the first
nine months of 2025, compared to 1.80% in
first nine months of 2024.
The Bank participates in the Certificates of Deposit Account Registry Service
(the “CDARS”) and the Insured Cash Sweep
product (“ICS”), which provide for reciprocal (“two-way”) transactions
among banks facilitated by IntraFi for the purpose
of improving the FDIC insurance coverage for our depositors.
The Company had reciprocal deposits on balance sheet of
$34.1 million at September 30, 2025, compared to $6.9 million at December
31, 2024.
At September 30, 2025, estimated uninsured deposits totaled $369.1 million,
or 40% of total deposits, compared to $359.7
million, or 40% of total deposits at December 31, 2024.
Uninsured amounts are estimated based on the portion of account
balances in excess of FDIC insurance limits.
The Bank’s estimated uninsured
deposits at September 30, 2025 and
December 31, 2024 include approximately $207.6 million
and $223.1 million, respectively,
of deposits of state, county and
local governments that are collateralized by securities having an equal fair value
to such deposits.
Excluding estimated
uninsured deposits of state, county and local governments,
our estimated uninsured deposits would have been 18% of total
deposits at September 30, 2025 and 15% of total deposits at December 31, 2024.

Other Borrowings and Available
Credit
The Company had no long-term debt at September 30, 2025 and December
31, 2024.
The Bank utilizes short and long-
term non-deposit borrowings from time to time. Short-term borrowings
generally consist of federal funds purchased and
securities sold under agreements to repurchase with an original maturity of one year
or less.
The Bank had available federal
funds lines totaling $65.2 million with no federal
funds borrowings outstanding at September 30, 2025, and December 31,
2024, respectively.
The Company had no securities sold under agreements to repurchase,
which generally have been
entered into on behalf of certain customers at both September 30, 2025
and December 31, 2024.
The Bank is eligible to
borrow from the FRB’s discount window,
but had no such borrowings at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
The
Bank never borrowed from the Federal Reserve’s
Bank Term Facility Program
(“BTFP”), which ceased making new loans
on March 11, 2024.
The Bank is a member of the FHLB of Atlanta and has borrowed, and may
in the future borrow from time to time under the
FHLB of Atlanta’s advance program.
FHLB advances include both fixed and variable rates and are taken out
with varying
maturities, and are generally secured by eligible assets.
The Bank had no borrowings under FHLB of Atlanta’s
advance
program at September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.
At those dates, the Bank had $308.6 million and
$296.9 million, respectively,
of available lines of credit at the FHLB of Atlanta.
CAPITAL ADEQUACY
The Company’s consolidated
stockholders’ equity was $89.6 million and $78.3 million as of September
30, 2025 and
December 31, 2024, respectively.
The increase from December 31, 2024 was primarily driven by
net earnings of $5.6
million and other comprehensive income due to the change in unrealized
gains/losses on securities available-for-sale, net of
tax of $8.6 million, partially offset by cash dividends of $2.8 million.
Unrealized losses do not affect the Bank’s
capital for
regulatory capital purposes.
The Company paid cash dividends of $0.81 per share for both the first
nine months of 2025 and the first nine months of
2024.
During July of 2025, the Company granted certain officers
restricted stock units (“RSUs”) on 3,030 shares of Company
common stock pursuant to the Company’s
2024 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan.
The RSUs are reflected in the
consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity and in earnings per share,
were not material to the Company’s financial
condition, results of operations, or cash flows for the period.
The Form of Award
Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this
report.
Federal Reserve rules require a capital conservation buffer
of CET1 capital of 2.5% that is added to the minimum
requirements for capital adequacy purposes.
A banking organization with a capital conservation buffer
of 2.5% or less is
subject to limitation on “distributions” from “eligible retained earnings”,
including dividend payments, share repurchases
and certain discretionary bonus payments.
The Federal Reserve has treated us as a “small bank holding company’ under the Federal Reserve’s
Small Bank Holding
Company Policy.
Accordingly, our capital
adequacy is evaluated at the Bank level, and not for the Company and its
consolidated subsidiaries.
The Bank’s tier 1 leverage ratio was 10.72%,
CET1 risk-based capital ratio was 15.51%, tier 1
risk-based capital ratio was 15.51%, and total risk-based capital ratio was 16.49%
at September 30, 2025. These ratios
exceed the minimum regulatory capital percentages of 5.0% for tier
1 leverage ratio, 6.5% for CET1 risk-based capital
ratio, 8.0% for tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, and 10.0% for total risk-based
capital ratio to be considered “well capitalized.”
The Bank’s capital conservation
buffer was 8.49% at September 30, 2025.
MARKET AND LIQUIDITY RISK MANAGEMENT
Management’s objective is to manage
assets and liabilities to provide a satisfactory,
consistent level of profitability within
the framework of established liquidity,
loan, investment, borrowing, and capital policies. The Bank’s
Asset Liability
Management Committee (“ALCO”) is charged with the
responsibility of monitoring these policies, which are designed to
ensure an acceptable asset/liability composition. Two
critical areas of focus for ALCO are interest rate risk and liquidity
risk management.
Table of Contents
37
Interest Rate Risk Management
In the normal course of business, the Company is exposed to market risk arising from
fluctuations in interest rates. ALCO
measures and evaluates interest rate risk so that the Bank can meet customer demands
for various types of loans and
deposits. Measurements used to help manage interest rate sensitivity include
an earnings simulation model and an economic
value of equity (“EVE”) model.
Earnings simulation
. Management believes that interest rate risk is best estimated by our earnings
simulation modeling.
Forecasted levels of earning assets, interest-bearing liabilities, and
off-balance sheet financial instruments are combined
with ALCO forecasts of market interest rates for the next 12 months and other factors
in order to produce various earnings
simulations and estimates. To
help limit interest rate risk, we have guidelines for earnings at risk which seek to
limit the
variance of net interest income from gradual changes in interest rates.
For changes up or down in rates from management’s
flat interest rate forecast over the next 12 months, policy limits for net interest income
variances are as follows:
●
+/- 20% for a gradual change of 400 basis points
●
+/- 15% for a gradual change of 300 basis points
●
+/- 10% for a gradual change of 200 basis points
●
+/- 5% for a gradual change of 100 basis points
While a gradual change in interest rates was used in the above analysis to provide an
estimate of exposure under these
scenarios, our modeling under both a gradual and instantaneous change in interest
rates indicates our balance sheet is
liability sensitive over the forecast period of 12 months.
At September 30, 2025, our earnings simulation model indicated that
we were in compliance with the policy guidelines
noted above.
Economic Value
of Equity
. EVE measures the extent that the estimated economic values of our
assets, liabilities, and off-
balance sheet items will change as a result of interest rate changes. Economic
values are estimated by discounting expected
cash flows from assets, liabilities, and off-balance sheet
items, which establishes a base case EVE. In contrast with our
earnings simulation model, which evaluates interest rate risk over a 12-month
timeframe, EVE uses a terminal horizon
which allows for the re-pricing of all assets, liabilities, and off-balance
sheet items. Further, EVE is measured using values
as of a point in time and does not reflect any actions that ALCO might take in responding
to or anticipating changes in
interest rates, or market and competitive conditions.
To help limit interest rate risk,
we have stated policy guidelines for an
instantaneous basis point change in interest rates, such that our EVE should not decrease
from our base case by more than
the following:
●
35% for an instantaneous change of +/- 400 basis points
●
30% for an instantaneous change of +/- 300 basis points
●
25% for an instantaneous change of +/- 200 basis points
●
15% for an instantaneous change of +/- 100 basis points
At September 30, 2025, our EVE model indicated that we were in compliance
with our policy guidelines.
Each of the above analyses may not, on its own, be an accurate indicator of how
our net interest income will be affected by
changes in interest rates. Income associated with interest-earning
assets and costs associated with interest-bearing liabilities
may not be affected uniformly by changes in interest
rates. In addition, the magnitude and duration of changes in interest
rates may have a significant impact on net interest income. For example,
although certain assets and liabilities may have
similar maturities or periods of repricing, they may react in different
degrees to changes in market interest rates, and other
economic and market factors, including market perceptions. Interest
rates on certain types of assets and liabilities fluctuate
in advance of changes in general market rates, while interest rates on other
types of assets and liabilities may lag behind
changes in general market rates. In addition, certain assets, such as adjustable-rate
mortgage loans, have features (generally
referred to as “interest rate caps and floors”) which limit changes in interest rates.
Prepayments
and early withdrawal levels
also could deviate significantly from those assumed in calculating the maturity of
certain instruments. The ability of many
borrowers to service their debts also may decrease during periods of rising interest
rates or economic stress, which may
differ across industries and economic sectors. ALCO reviews each
of the above interest rate sensitivity analyses along with
several different interest rate scenarios in seeking satisfactory,
consistent levels of profitability within the framework of the
Company’s established liquidity,
loan, investment, borrowing, and capital policies.
Table of Contents
38
The Company may also use derivative financial instruments to improve
the balance between interest-sensitive assets and
interest-sensitive liabilities, and as a tool to manage interest rate sensitivity while continuing
to meet the credit and deposit
needs of our customers. From time to time, the Company also may
enter into back-to-back interest rate swaps to facilitate
customer transactions and meet their financing needs. These interest rate
swaps qualify as derivatives, but are not
designated as hedging instruments. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024,
the Company had no derivative
contracts designated as part of a hedging relationship to assist in managing
its interest rate sensitivity.
Liquidity Risk Management
Liquidity is the Company’s
ability to convert assets into cash equivalents in order to meet daily cash flow
requirements,
primarily for deposit withdrawals, loan demand and maturing obligations.
The Company seeks to manage its liquidity to
manage or reduce its costs of funds by maintaining liquidity believed
adequate to meet its anticipated funding needs, while
balancing against excessive liquidity that likely would reduce earnings
due to the cost of foregoing alternative higher-
yielding assets.
Liquidity is managed at two levels. The first is the liquidity of the Company.
The second is the liquidity of the Bank. The
management of liquidity at both levels is essential, because the Company and
the Bank are separate and distinct legal
entities with different funding needs and sources, and
each are subject to regulatory guidelines and requirements.
The
Company depends upon dividends from the Bank for liquidity to pay its operating
expenses, debt obligations and
dividends,
and Federal Reserve Regulation W restricts Company borrowings from, and other
transactions with, the Bank.
The Bank’s payment of dividends
depends on its earnings, liquidity,
capital and the absence of regulatory restrictions on
such dividends.
The primary source of funding and liquidity for the Company has been dividends
received from the Bank.
If needed, the
Company could also borrow money,
or issue common stock or other securities.
Primary uses of funds by the Company
include payment of Company expenses, dividends paid to stockholders
and Company stock repurchases.
Primary sources of funding for the Bank include customer deposits, other borrowings,
interest payments on earning assets,
repayment and maturity of securities and loans,
sales of securities, and the sale of loans, particularly residential mortgage
loans. The Bank has access to federal funds lines from various banks and borrowings
from the Federal Reserve discount
window. In addition to
these sources, the Bank is eligible to participate in the FHLB of Atlanta’s
advance program to obtain
funding for growth and liquidity.
Advances include both fixed and variable terms and may be taken out with varying
maturities. At September 30, 2025, the Bank had no FHLB of Atlanta advances
outstanding and available credit from the
FHLB of $308.6 million. At September 30, 2025, the Bank also had $65.2
million of available federal funds lines with no
borrowings outstanding. Primary uses of funds include repayment of maturing
obligations and growing the loan portfolio.
The Company also has access to the FRB discount window.
Management believes that the Company and the Bank have adequate
sources of liquidity to meet all their respective known
contractual obligations and unfunded commitments, including loan
commitments and reasonably
expected borrower,
depositor, and creditor requirements over
the next twelve months.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Commitments, Contingencies and Contractual
Obligations
At September 30, 2025, the Bank had outstanding standby letters of credit
of $0.8 million and unfunded loan commitments
outstanding of $61.1 million.
Because these commitments generally have fixed expiration dates and
many will expire
without being drawn upon, the total commitment level does not necessarily
represent future cash requirements. If needed to
fund these outstanding commitments, the Bank could use its cash and
cash equivalents, deposits with other banks, liquidate
federal funds sold or a portion of our securities available-for-sale, or
draw on its available credit facilities or raise deposits.
Mortgage lending activities
We generally
sell residential mortgage loans in the secondary market to Fannie Mae while retaining
the servicing of these
loans. The sale agreements for these residential mortgage loans with Fannie Mae
and other investors include various
customary representations and warranties regarding the origination
and characteristics of the residential mortgage loans.
Although the representations and warranties vary among
investors, they typically cover ownership of the loan, validity of
the lien securing the loan, the absence of delinquent taxes or liens against the property
securing the loan, compliance with
loan criteria set forth in the applicable agreement and compliance with applicable
federal, state, and local laws, among other
matters.
Table of Contents
39
As of September 30, 2025, the aggregate unpaid principal balance of
residential mortgage loans, which we have originated
and sold, but retained the servicing rights, was $193.5 million.
Although these loans are generally sold on a non-recourse
basis, we may be obligated to repurchase residential mortgage loans or
reimburse investors for losses incurred (make whole
requests) if a loan review reveals a potential breach of our seller representations
and warranties.
Upon receipt of a
repurchase or make whole request, we work with investors to arrive at a mutually
agreeable resolution. Repurchase and
make whole requests are typically reviewed on an individual loan by loan basis to
validate the claims made by the investor
and to determine if a contractually required repurchase or make whole event has occurred.
We seek to reduce
and manage
the risks of potential repurchases, make whole requests, or other claims by mortgage
loan investors through our
underwriting and quality assurance practices and by servicing mortgage
loans to meet investor and secondary market
standards.
The Company was not required to repurchase any loans during the
first nine months of 2025 as a result of representation
and warranty provisions contained in the Company’s
sale agreements with Fannie Mae, and had no pending repurchase or
make-whole requests at September 30, 2025.
We service all residential
mortgage loans originated and sold by us to Fannie Mae.
As servicer, our primary duties are to:
(1) collect payments due from borrowers;
(2) advance certain delinquent payments of principal and interest;
(3) maintain
and administer any hazard, title, or primary mortgage insurance policies relating
to the mortgage loans;
(4) maintain any
required escrow accounts for payment of taxes and insurance and
administer escrow payments;
and (5) foreclose on
defaulted mortgage loans or take other actions to mitigate the potential
losses to investors consistent with the agreements
governing our rights and duties as servicer.
Our mortgage servicing agreements
generally specify our standards
of responsibility as servicer and provide protection
against expenses and liabilities incurred by us when acting in compliance with these
servicing agreements.
However, if we
commit a material breach of our obligations as servicer,
we may be subject to termination if the breach is not cured within a
specified period following notice.
The standards governing servicing and the possible remedies for violations of
such
standards are determined by our agreements
with Fannie Mae and Fannie Mae’s mortgage servicing
guides.
Remedies
could include repurchase of an affected loan.
Although repurchase and make whole requests related to representation
and warranty provisions and servicing activities
have been limited to date, it is possible that requests to repurchase mortgage loans or reimburse
investors for losses incurred
(make whole requests) may increase in frequency if investors more aggressively
pursue all means of recovering losses on
their purchased loans.
As of September 30, 2025, we do not believe that this exposure is material due to the historical level
of repurchase requests and loss trends, in addition to the fact that 99% of our residential
mortgage loans serviced for Fannie
Mae was current as of such date.
We maintain ongoing
communications with our mortgage purchasers and will continue to
evaluate this exposure by monitoring the level and number of repurchase
requests as well as the delinquency rates in our
investor portfolios.
The Bank sells mortgage loans to Fannie Mae and services these on an actual/actual basis.
As a result, the Bank is not
obligated to make any advances to Fannie Mae on principal and interest
on such mortgage loans where the borrower is
entitled to forbearance.
Effects of Inflation and Changing Prices
The consolidated financial statements and related consolidated financial
data presented herein have been prepared in
accordance with GAAP and practices within the banking industry which
require the measurement of financial position and
operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering
the changes in the relative purchasing power of money
over time due to inflation. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all
the assets and liabilities of a financial institution
are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact
on a financial institution’s performance
than the effects of general levels of inflation.
Inflation can increase our noninterest expenses. It also can affect
our customers’ behaviors, the mix of deposits between
interest and noninterest bearing, the levels of interest rates we have to pay on
our deposits and other borrowings, and the
interest rates we earn on our earning assets. The difference between
our interest expense and interest income is also affected
by the shape of the yield curve and the speeds and amounts at which our various assets and liabilities, respectively,
reprice
in response to interest rate changes. The yield curve was inverted during most of 2024,
until September, when it began
to
normalize. An inverted yield curve means shorter term interest rates are higher
than longer term interest rates. This results
in a lower spread between our costs of funds and our interest income.
As of October 31, 2025, yields on one- and two-
m
onth maturity Treasury securities were higher
than other Treasury securities with maturities of 10 years or less.
Table of Contents
40
Net interest income could be affected by asymmetrical changes in the
different interest rate indexes, given that not all of our
assets or liabilities are priced with the same index. Higher market interest
rates and reductions in the securities held by the
Federal Reserve to reduce inflation generally reduce economic activity and
may reduce loan demand and growth, and may
adversely affect unemployment rates. Inflation and related
changes in market interest rates, as the Federal Reserve
maintains interest rates to meet its longer-term inflation goal of 2%, also can adversely
affect the values and liquidity of our
loans and securities, the value of collateral securing loans to our borrowers,
and the success of our borrowers and such
borrowers’ available cash to pay interest on and principal of our loans to them.
Beginning in September 2024, in light of inflation moderating, the Federal
Reserve’s Federal Open Market Committee
(“FOMC”) had three reductions in its target federal funds
rate range totaling 100 basis points to 4.25% to 4.50%. While the
FOMC reaffirmed its target inflation rate of 2% over
the longer run, it indicated it was “recalibrating” its policy based on
decreasing inflation rates and the risks of increasing unemployment,
but would act on incoming data, the evolving outlook
and the balance of the risks of inflation and unemployment levels. In the
future, the Federal Reserve could further decrease
target interest rates, or could increase such target
rates, depending on the data and its outlook.
On July 31, 2025, the FOMC
stated that it seeks to achieve maximum employment and inflation at the rate of 2 percent
over the longer run.
Uncertainty
about the economic outlook remains elevated.
The Committee is attentive to the risks to both sides of its dual mandate. …
The [FOMC’s] assessments will take
into account a wide range of information, including readings on labor market
conditions, inflation pressures and inflation expectations, and financial
and international developments.”
On September 17, 2025, the FOMC reduced its target federal funds
rate range 25 basis points to 4.00% to 4.25%, and stated
it would continue to reduce its holdings of Treasury
and agency debt and mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”).
Most
recently, on October 29, 2025,
the FOMC noted inflation had risen and was somewhat elevated, and that downside
risks to
employment had risen in recent months.
As a result, the FOMC reduced its target federal funds rate range 25 basis points
to 3.75% to 4.00%.
The FOMC took further action with respect to its overnight repurchase and reverse
repurchase rates
and daily volume limitations and effective October 30, 2025,
limited the rate of reduction in the Federal Reserve’s
securities holdings, subject to modest deviations for operational reasons:
●
The Federal Reserve will roll over and reinvest at auction principal payments on Treasury
securities maturing in
excess of $5 billion per month.
●
Beginning December1, all principal payments on Treasury
securities would be rolled over and reinvested.
●
Reinvest the amount of principal payments from the Federal Reserve's holdings
of agency debt and agency MBS
received in October and November that exceeds a cap of $35 billion per month
in Treasury securities to roughly
match the maturity composition of Treasury
securities outstanding.
●
Beginning, all principal payments from the Federal Reserve's holdings of agency
securities would be reinvested in
Treasury bills.

report on Form 10-Q includes certain designated net interest income
amounts presented on a tax-equivalent basis, a non-
GAAP financial measure, including the presentation and calculation
of the efficiency ratio.
The Company believes the presentation of net interest income on a tax-equivalent
basis provides comparability of net
interest income from both taxable and tax-exempt sources and facilitates comparability
within the industry. Although
the
Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures enhance investors’
understanding of its business and performance,
these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative
to GAAP.
The reconciliations
of these non-
GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures
are presented below.

caption “MARKET AND LIQUIDITY RISK
MANAGEMENT” and is incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
The Company, with the participation
of its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer,
carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and
operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as
defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the

disclosure controls and
procedures were effective to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure
in its reports that the Company files or submits to
the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended. There have been no
changes in the Company’s internal
control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report
that have materially affected, or are reasonably
likely to materially affect, the Company’s
internal control over financial
reporting.

management believe there are no pending or threatened legal, governmental,
or regulatory
proceedings that, upon resolution, are expected to have a material adverse effect
upon the Company’s or the Bank’s
financial condition or results of operations. See also, Part I, Item 3 of the Company’s
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
year ended December 31, 2024.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider
the factors discussed in Part I,
Item 1A. “RISK FACTORS”
in the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024,
which could materially affect our business, financial condition
or future results. The risks described in our annual report on
Form 10-K are not the only the risks facing our Company.
The persistence of inflation above the Federal Reserve’s
long
term targets, and the maintenance of or further increases in,
tightened Federal Reserve monetary policy by increased target
interest rates and reductions in the Federal Reserve’s
securities portfolio, have and may continue to affect the levels
of
interest rates, mortgage originations and income, the market values of
our securities portfolio and loans and have resulted in
unrealized securities losses that have adversely affected our stockholders’
equity.
Although inflation has remained above
the 2% rate, during the last year the Federal Reserve has reduced its target
federal funds range from 5.25% to 5.50% to
3.75% to 4.00%, and on October 29, 2025 announced that it would end the
roll-off of maturing securities it held beginning
December 1, 2025 as the Federal Reserve sought to meet its dual mandate of
maximum employment and 2% inflation over
the longer run.
These actions, and the changes from tighter to more accommodative monetary policy
have affected and are
expected to continue to affect our deposit costs and mixes,
and consumer savings and payment behaviors.
These may also
affect our borrowers’ operating costs, expected returns and
cash flows available to service our loans.
Additional risks and
uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be
immaterial also may materially adversely affect our
b
usiness, financial condition, and/or operating results in the future.
