The fair market value of the SBA servicing asset as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, was $3.2 million and $3.3 million, respectively. Recovery or impairment adjustments to servicing rights are mainly due to market-based assumptions associated with discounted cash flows, loan prepayment speeds, and changes in interest rates. A significant change in these assumptions could result in a significant change in the SBA servicing asset carrying amount.
