INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes was $0.6 million and $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rate was 22.6% and 23.0%, respectively, for the same periods. The effective tax rate is impacted by recurring permanent differences, such as those associated with bank-owned life insurance and tax-exempt investment and loan income.

The Company had a net deferred tax asset of $3.2 million and $4.1 million as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The net deferred tax asset, which is included on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets in other assets, is impacted by changes in the fair value of securities available-for-sale and cash flow hedges, changes in net operating loss carryforwards, changes in the allowance for credit losses, and other book-to-tax temporary differences.

On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the “OBBBA”) was signed into law. The OBBBA extends or makes permanent a number of provisions originally enacted in the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act and introduces new items affecting both individuals and businesses. Topic 740, Income Taxes, of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification requires the effects of newly enacted tax law to be recognized in the period of enactment. Because enactment occurred after the quarter-end date of June 30, 2025, we are evaluating the OBBBA’s impact on our deferred tax assets and liabilities, effective tax rate, and tax-related processes (e.g., payroll reporting for qualifying wage items). Based on preliminary analysis, we do not currently expect the OBBBA to have a material impact on our 2025 estimated annual effective tax rate or on our consolidated financial statements, but our evaluation is ongoing.
