Discussion of Operating Results

Net Interest Income/Net Interest Margin

Tax-equivalent net interest income for the third quarter of 2026 totaled $45.1 million, compared to $44.2 million for the second quarter of 2026, and $43.6 million for the third quarter of 2025. Compared to the second quarter of 2026, the increase was primarily attributable to higher income from investment securities and loan interest income, in addition to lower deposit interest expense, partially offset by lower overnight funds income due to lower average balances. The increase in investment securities income reflected new investment purchases at higher rates and higher balances as we deploy additional liquidity into the investment security portfolio. The decrease in deposit interest expense was primarily driven by lower average balances on seasonal public funds accounts and lower rates on time deposits. One additional calendar day also contributed to the increase over the second quarter of 2026. The increase over the third quarter of 2025 was also driven by the same aforementioned factors.

For the first nine months of 2026, tax-equivalent net interest income totaled $132.2 million compared to $128.4 million for the same period of 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to higher investment securities income and lower deposit interest expense, partially offset by lower loan interest income and overnight funds income. New investment purchases at higher yields and higher balances drove the increase in investment securities income. The decrease in deposit interest expense was primarily attributable to lower rates across several product lines. Lower average loan balances contributed to the decrease in loan interest income, while the decrease in overnight funds income reflected the deployment of more liquidity into the investment portfolio as well as a lower average overnight funds rate.

Our net interest margin for the third quarter of 2026 was 4.42%, an increase of seven basis points over the second quarter of 2026 and an increase of eight basis points over the third quarter of 2025. For the first nine months of 2026, our net interest margin increased by six basis points to 4.34% compared to the same period of 2025. The increase in net interest margin over all prior periods was largely attributable to higher investment security yield driven by new purchases at higher rates and lower deposit costs. For the third quarter of 2026, our cost of funds was 73 basis points, a decrease of two basis points from the second quarter of 2026 and five basis points from the third quarter of 2025. Our cost of deposits (including noninterest bearing accounts) was 74 basis points, 76 basis points, and 80 basis points, respectively, for the same periods.

Provision for Credit Losses 

We recorded a provision benefit for credit losses of $0.1 million for the third quarter of 2026, compared to a provision expense of $0.9 million for the second quarter of 2026 and $1.9 million for the third quarter of 2025. For the first nine months of 2026, we recorded a provision expense for credit losses of $1.6 million compared to $3.3 million for the same period of 2025. Activity within the components of the provision (loans held for investment (“HFI”) and unfunded loan commitments) for each reported period is provided in the table on page 10. We discuss the various factors that impacted our provision expense for Loans HFI in further detail below under the heading Allowance for Credit Losses.

Noninterest Income and Noninterest Expense

Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2026 totaled $19.4 million, a $1.2 million, or 5.9%, decrease from the second quarter of 2026 and a $2.9 million, or 13.2%, decrease from the third quarter of 2025. The decrease from the second quarter of 2026 was attributable to decreases in mortgage banking revenues of $1.0 million, deposit fees of $0.5 million and other income of $0.2 million partially offset by a $0.5 million increase in wealth management fees. The decrease in mortgage banking revenues was primarily due to lower production volume and the decrease in deposit fees reflected lower overdraft fees attributable to processing changes that better align with industry practices. The increase in wealth management fees was primarily due to higher retail brokerage fees.

The decrease from the third quarter of 2025 was driven by decreases in mortgage banking revenues of $1.1 million, deposit fees of $0.7 million, other income of $0.7 million and wealth management fees of $0.5 million, partially offset by an increase in bank card fees of $0.1 million. The decrease in mortgage banking revenues was due to lower production volume and gain on sale margin. The decrease in deposit fees reflected lower overdraft fees. The decrease in other income reflected a $0.7 million gain from the sale of our insurance subsidiary in the third quarter of 2025 – the advisors at this subsidiary also serviced retail brokerage clients which drove the decline in wealth management fees.

For the first nine months of 2026, noninterest income totaled $59.9 million, a $2.3 million, or 3.8%, decrease from the same period of 2025, attributable to decreases in wealth management fees of $3.3 million partially offset by increases in other income of $0.7 million and bank card fees of $0.3 million. The decrease in wealth management fees was attributable to decreases in retail brokerage fees (due to lower assets under management) and lower insurance commissions (attributable to the aforementioned sale of our insurance subsidiary). The increase in other income was primarily attributable to increases in other fees/commissions of $0.3 million and bank owned life insurance income of $0.2 million. The increase in bank card fees reflected higher card volume.

Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2026 totaled $42.3 million, a $0.3 million, or 0.8%, decrease from the second quarter of 2026 and a $0.6 million, or 1.4%, decrease from the third quarter of 2025. The decrease from the second quarter of 2026 was primarily attributable to decreases in compensation expense of $0.2 million (commission expense) and other expense of $0.1 million. A $0.5 million decrease in other real estate expense that was partially offset by a $0.3 million increase in telephone expense drove the variance in other expense. The decrease from the third quarter of 2025 was also driven by the same aforementioned factors.

For the first nine months of 2026, noninterest expense totaled $126.3 million, a $2.2 million, or 1.7%, increase over the same period of 2025 and reflected increases in other expense of $3.0 million and occupancy expense of $0.8 million partially offset by a $1.6 million decrease in compensation expense. The increase in other expense was primarily due to a $3.9 million increase in ORE expense, reflecting lower gains on property sales compared to the prior year period, which included a significant gain from the sale of our operations center building in the first quarter of 2025. Lower charitable contribution expense of $0.6 million and professional fee expense of $0.6 million partially offset the increase. The increase in occupancy expense reflected higher expense for FF&E maintenance agreements and software licenses. The decrease in compensation expense reflected lower salary expense of $1.1 million and associate benefit expense of $0.5 million. Lower commission expense drove the decline in salary expense and the decrease in associate benefit expense was primarily attributable to lower stock based compensation.      

Income Taxes

We realized income tax expense of $5.2 million (effective rate of 23.6%) for the third quarter of 2026, compared to $5.0 million (effective rate of 23.4%) for the second quarter of 2026 and $5.1 million (effective rate of 24.4%) for the third quarter of 2025. For the first nine months of 2026, we realized income tax expense of $15.0 million (effective rate of 23.5%) compared to $15.3 million (effective rate of 24.2%) for the same period of 2025. Tax benefits accrued from a solar tax credit investment in 2026 drove the decrease in our effective tax rate compared to the prior year periods. Absent discrete items or new tax credit investments, we expect our annual effective tax rate to approximate 23-24% for 2026.

Discussion of Financial Condition

Earning Assets

Average earning assets totaled $4.038 billion for the third quarter of 2026, a decrease of $30.6 million, or 0.8%, from the second quarter of 2026, and an increase of $2.4 million, or 0.1% over the fourth quarter of 2025. Compared to the second quarter of 2026, the change in earning asset mix reflected a $27.2 million decrease in overnight funds, a $10.3 million decrease in loans held for investment, and a $3.5 million decrease in loans held for sale (“HFS”), partially offset by a $10.5 million increase in investment securities. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2025, the change reflected a $171.8 million increase in investment securities and a $2.7 million increase in loans HFS, partially offset by a $99.7 million decrease in overnight funds and a $72.5 million decrease in loans held for investment.

Average loans HFI decreased by $10.3 million, or 0.4% from the second quarter of 2026, and decreased by $72.5 million, or 2.8% from the fourth quarter of 2025. Compared to the second quarter of 2026, the decline was primarily attributable to decreases in commercial real estate loans of $8.4 million, residential real estate loans of $4.5 million, and construction loans of $3.7 million, partially offset by increases in consumer loans (primarily indirect auto) of $2.2 million, home equity loans of $2.0 million, and commercial loans of $1.5 million. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2025, the decline was primarily attributable to decreases in residential real estate loans of $35.2 million, commercial real estate loans of $33.0 million, construction loans of $7.8 million, commercial loans of $5.1 million, and consumer loans of $0.7 million, partially offset by increases in home equity loans of $7.9 million.

Loans HFI at September 30, 2026, decreased $10.1 million, or 0.4% from June 30, 2026, and decreased $56.4 million, or 2.2% from December 31, 2025. Compared to June 30, 2026, the decline was primarily attributable to decreases in commercial real estate loans of $14.3 million, commercial loans of $4.4 million, and other loans of $2.3 million, partially offset by increases in residential real estate loans of $5.9 million, consumer loans (primarily indirect auto) of $3.2 million, home equity loans of $1.7 million, and construction loans of $0.2 million. Compared to December 31, 2025, the decline was primarily attributable to decreases in commercial real estate loans of $32.4 million, residential real estate loans of $16.9 million, commercial loans of $12.2 million, and other loans of $4.4 million, partially offset by increases in home equity loans of $5.2 million, construction loans of $2.4 million, and consumer loans (primarily indirect auto) of $1.7 million.

Allowance for Credit Losses

At September 30, 2026, the allowance for credit losses for loans HFI totaled $30.4 million compared to $31.0 million at June 30, 2026 and $31.0 million at December 31, 2025. Activity within the allowance is provided on page 10. The decline in the allowance reflected improved credit quality metrics and a lower level of net loan charge-offs of 8 basis points of average loans for the third quarter of 2026 versus 14 basis points for the second quarter of 2026 and 18 basis points for the third quarter of 2025. Net loan charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 were 11 basis points compared to 12 basis points for the same period of 2025. At September 30, 2026, the allowance represented 1.22% of loans HFI compared to 1.24% at June 30, 2026, and 1.22% at December 31, 2025.

Credit Quality

Nonperforming assets (nonaccrual loans and other real estate) totaled $9.7 million at September 30, 2026, compared to $13.4 million at June 30, 2026 and $10.5 million at December 31, 2025. At September 30, 2026, nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets was 0.22%, compared to 0.30% at June 30, 2026 and 0.24% at December 31, 2025. Nonaccrual loans totaled $7.4 million at September 30, 2026, a $2.7 million decrease from June 30, 2026 and a $1.2 million decrease from December 31, 2025. Other real estate totaled $2.4 million at September 30, 2026, a $1.1 million decrease from June 30, 2026 and a $0.4 million increase over December 31, 2025. Further, classified loans totaled $20.8 million at September 30, 2026, a $9.0 million decrease from June 30, 2026 and a $6.5 million increase over December 31, 2025.

Deposits

Average total deposits were $3.648 billion for the third quarter of 2026, a decrease of $31.2 million, or 0.9%, from the second quarter of 2026, and comparable to the fourth quarter of 2025. Compared to the second quarter of 2026, the decrease was primarily due to lower public funds balances of $63.8 million (primarily NOW accounts) due to the seasonal reduction in those balances, partially offset by higher core account balances of $32.6 million (primarily money market and noninterest bearing checking).

At September 30, 2026, total deposits were $3.667 billion, a decrease of $54.4 million, or 1.5% from June 30, 2026, and an increase of $4.3 million, or 0.1% over December 31, 2025. The decrease from June 30, 2026, was driven by lower public funds balances of $58.3 million (primarily NOW accounts), partially offset by an increase in core deposit balances of $3.9 million (primarily money market accounts). The increase over December 31, 2025 reflected core deposit growth of $155.8 million, partially offset by lower public funds balances of $151.5 million. Total public funds balances were $503.2 million at September 30, 2026, $561.5 million at June 30, 2026, and $654.7 million at December 31, 2025, respectively.

Liquidity

The Bank maintained an average net overnight funds (i.e., deposits with banks plus FED funds sold, less FED funds purchased) sold position of $337.9 million in the third quarter of 2026 compared to $365.1 million in the second quarter of 2026 and $437.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2025. Compared to the second quarter of 2026, the variance reflected lower average deposits and the deployment of excess liquidity into the investment security portfolio. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2025, the variance was driven by the deployment of excess liquidity into the investment security portfolio.

We also view our investment portfolio as a liquidity source as we have the option to pledge securities in our portfolio as collateral for borrowings or deposits and/or to sell selected securities in our portfolio. Our portfolio consists of debt issued by the U.S. Treasury, U.S. governmental agencies, municipal governments, and corporate entities. At September 30, 2026, the weighted-average maturity and duration of our portfolio were 2.98 years and 2.63 years, respectively, and the available-for-sale portfolio had a net unrealized after-tax loss of $23.1 million, or 2.7% of book value.
  
At September 30, 2026, we had the ability to generate approximately $1.745 billion (excludes overnight funds position of $340 million) in additional liquidity through various sources including various federal funds purchased lines, Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, the Federal Reserve Discount Window, and brokered deposits.

Capital

Shareowners’ equity was $573.9 million at September 30, 2026, compared to $570.1 million at June 30, 2026, and $552.9 million at December 31, 2025. For the first nine months of 2026, shareowners’ equity was positively impacted by net income of $49.0 million, the issuance of stock of $3.5 million, and stock compensation accretion of $1.5 million. Shareowners’ equity was reduced by common stock dividends of $13.9 million ($0.81 per share), repurchases of our common stock of $2.6 million (63,088 shares), net adjustments totaling $2.5 million related to transactions under our stock-based compensation plans, and an unfavorable net change of $14.0 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss due to an unfavorable fair value mark on investment securities driven by higher bond rates.

At September 30, 2026, our total risk-based capital ratio was 22.99%, compared to 22.35% at June 30, 2026, and 21.45% at December 31, 2025. Our common equity tier 1 capital ratio was 20.43%, 19.80%, and 18.56%, respectively, on these dates. Our leverage ratio was 12.31%, 11.96%, and 11.77%, respectively, on these dates. At September 30, 2026, all our regulatory capital ratios exceeded the thresholds to be designated as “well-capitalized” under the Basel III capital standards. Further, our tangible common equity ratio (non-GAAP financial measure) was 11.25% at September 30, 2026, compared to 11.03% at June 30, 2026, and 10.79% at December 31, 2025. If our unrealized held-to-maturity securities loss of $16.0 million (after-tax) was recognized in accumulated other comprehensive loss, our adjusted tangible capital ratio would be 10.88%.

USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Unaudited

We present a tangible common equity ratio and a tangible book value per diluted share that removes the effect of goodwill and other intangibles resulting from merger and acquisition activity. We believe these measures are useful to investors because they allow investors to more easily compare our capital adequacy to other companies in the industry. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered alternatives to GAAP-basis financial statements and other bank holding companies may define or calculate these non-GAAP measures or similar measures differently.

The GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations are provided below.
