Nature of Operations – South Plains Financial, Inc. (“SPFI”) is a Texas corporation and registered bank holding company that conducts its principal activities through its subsidiaries from offices located throughout Texas and Eastern New Mexico. Principal activities include commercial and retail banking, along with investment, trust, and mortgage services. The following were subsidiaries of SPFI as of March 31, 2026:
Basis of Presentation and Consolidation – The consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2026 (this “Form 10-Q”) include the accounts of SPFI and its wholly-owned consolidated subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Company”) identified above. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
The interim consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm, but in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations, and cash flows. All such adjustments were of a normal and recurring nature. The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, the financial statements do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements, and notes thereto in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 as filed with the SEC on March 5, 2026 (the “2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K”). Operating results for the interim periods disclosed herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full year or any future period.
Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Determination of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) is a material estimate that is particularly susceptible to significant changes in the near term.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements – Updates to the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) are prescribed in Accounting Standards Updates (“ASUs”), which are not authoritative until incorporated into the ASC.
ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative. The amendments in this ASU modify the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of Topics in the Codification. Certain of the amendments represent clarifications to, or technical corrections of the current requirements.
Each amendment in this ASU will only become effective if the SEC removes the related disclosure or presentation requirement from its existing regulations by June 30, 2027. The amendments in this ASU are not expected to have a material impact on
the Company’s financial statements.
ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation
of Income Statement Expenses. This ASU requires public companies to disclose in tabular format, in the notes to the financial statements, specific disaggregated information about certain prescribed categories of expenses at each interim and
annual reporting period. The prescribed categories include, among other things, employee compensation, depreciation, and intangible asset amortization. This ASU is effective for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning
after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Implementation of this ASU may be applied prospectively or retrospectively. The Company does not expect the adoption of this ASU to have a material impact
on the Company’s financial statements. ASU 2025-08 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans. This ASU amends the guidance in ASC 326 on the
accounting for certain purchased loans. Under this ASU, entities must account for acquired loans (excluding credit cards) that meet certain criteria at acquisition (“purchased seasoned loans”) by recognizing
them at their purchase price plus an allowance for expected credit losses (the “gross-up” approach). This ASU’s amendments align the accounting for purchased seasoned loans with the treatment of financial
assets purchased with more-than-insignificant credit deterioration since origination (“PCD”). Purchased seasoned loans are defined under this ASU as non-PCD loans that are obtained in a business combination,
or non-PCD loans that (1) are obtained in an asset acquisition or upon consolidation of a variable interest entity that is not a business and (2) are acquired more than
90 days after their origination date by a transferee that was not involved in their origination. This ASU also introduces an accounting policy election related to the subsequent measurement of expected credit
losses for entities that use a method other than a discounted cash flow analysis to estimate credit losses on purchased seasoned loans. If this accounting policy is elected, entities can use the amortized cost basis of the asset to subsequently
measure their credit loss allowance. Accordingly, they can aggregate purchased and originated loans when adjusting estimates of credit losses for assets that share similar risk characteristics. This update is effective for annual reporting
periods beginning after December 15, 2026, including interim reporting periods, and the adoption of this ASU must be applied prospectively. Early adoption is permitted in an interim or annual reporting period in which financial statements have not
yet been issued or made available for issuance. An entity that adopts the amendments in an interim reporting period may apply them “as of the beginning of that interim reporting period or the beginning of the annual reporting period that includes
that interim reporting period.” The Company expects to early adopt ASU 2025-08 in the second quarter of 2026 and apply it as part of the purchase accounting for BOH Holdings, Inc. The Company is currently evaluating the impact on its disclosures.
ASU 2025-11 Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements. This ASU is intended to improve the navigability of the
guidance in ASC 270 and clarify when it applies. Under the amendments, an entity is subject to ASC 270 if it provides “interim financial statements and notes in accordance with GAAP.” This ASU also addresses
the form and content of such financial statements, adds lists to ASC 270 of the interim disclosures required by all other Codification topics, and establishes a principle under which an entity must “disclose events since the end of the last
annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity.” As the Board stated in the proposed guidance and reiterates in this ASU, the amendments are not intended to “change the fundamental nature
of interim reporting or expand or reduce current interim disclosure requirements.” This update is effective for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this ASU are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Subsequent Events – The Company has evaluated subsequent events and transactions from March 31, 2026 through the date this Form 10-Q was filed with the SEC for potential recognition or disclosure as required by GAAP.
