Compensation Actually Paid vs. Total Shareholder Return
The following graphs set forth the relationship between our PEO's CAP and the average of our Other NEOs' CAP, to (i) cumulative TSR over the five most recently completed fiscal years for the Company and our peer group, (ii) our net income, and (iii) our D-EPS. CAP is influenced by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the timing of equity award vesting, share price volatility over time, Company performance, changes in NEOs over time and other factors. Net income and D-EPS were impacted by the following: the 2021 acquisition of Select Bancorp and the impact of related expenses on net income; the 2023 acquisition of GrandSouth Bancorporation and the impact of related expenses on net income; the 2024 impact of the securities loss-earnback transaction; and the 2025 impact of the securities loss-earnback transactions. The following graphs showing net income and D-EPS also include Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted D-EPS for 2024 and 2025 only. The reconciliation from net income to Adjusted Net Income and D-EPS to Adjusted D-EPS are included in the Appendix. Prior years were not presented on an adjusted basis.

Additional 402(v) Disclosure Cumulative Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) is calculated by dividing (i) the sum of (A) the cumulative amount of dividends for the measurement period, assuming dividend reinvestment, and (B) the difference between the Company’s share price at the end and the beginning of the measurement period, by (ii) the Company’s share price at the beginning of the measurement period.Represents the amount of net income reflected in the Company’s audited financial statements for the applicable year.Represents D-EPS, which is utilized in our compensation plans. The Company has determined that D-EPS is the financial performance measure that, in the Company’s assessment, represents the most important performance measure (that is not otherwise required to be disclosed in the table above) used by the Company to link compensation actually paid to the Company’s NEOs to Company performance. For 2024 and 2025, however, the Compensation Committee determined that Adjusted Net Income and the resulting Adjusted D-EPS would be utilized for purposes of measuring the earnings per share measurement under the AIP. See the attached Appendix, and the above section entitled "2025 Financial Highlights" and "Annual Incentive Plan" above for a discussion on the use of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted D-EPS in 2025.
