NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)

Note 1 — Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Nature of Operations and Principles of Consolidation: The unaudited consolidated financial statements include Orange County Bancorp, Inc., a Delaware bank holding company (“Orange County Bancorp”) and its wholly owned subsidiaries: Orange Bank & Trust Company, a New York trust company (the “Bank”) and Orange Investment Advisors (“OIA”), formerly known as Hudson Valley Investment Advisors (“HVIA”), a Registered Investment Advisor, together referred to as the “Company.” Intercompany transactions and balances are eliminated in consolidation.

The Company provides commercial and consumer banking services to individuals, small businesses and local municipal governments as well as trust and investment services through the Bank and OIA. The Company is headquartered in Middletown, New York, with seven locations in Orange County, New York, seven in Westchester County, New York, two in Rockland County, New York, and two in Bronx County, New York. Its primary deposit products are checking, savings, and term certificate accounts, and its primary lending products are commercial real estate, commercial and residential mortgage loans. Substantially all loans are secured by specific items of collateral including business assets, consumer assets, and commercial and residential real estate. Commercial loans are expected to be repaid from cash flow from operations of businesses. Other than commercial real estate, there are no significant concentrations of loans to any one industry or customer. However, the customers’ ability to repay their loans is dependent on the real estate and general economic conditions in the areas in which they operate.

Assets held by the Company in an agency or fiduciary capacity for its customers are excluded from the consolidated financial statements since they do not constitute assets of the Company. Assets held by the Company in an agency or fiduciary capacity for its customers amounted to $1.6 billion and $1.9 billion at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the audited consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2025 for Orange County Bancorp contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2026. In the opinion of the management of the Company, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting solely of normal and recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position as of March 31, 2026, the results of operations, comprehensive income, and changes in stockholders’ equity for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 and cash flow statements for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or for any future period. Certain reclassifications have been made to the financial statements to conform with prior period presentations.

Use of Estimates: To prepare financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, management makes estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the disclosures provided, and actual results could differ.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, enhancing disclosure requirements for reportable segments, focusing on significant segment expenses, the identification of a segment's chief decision making officer, and the metrics used by the chief decision making officer in evaluating segment-level operating performance.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09—Income Taxes (Topic 740)—Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, intended to enhance the transparency of income tax disclosures, primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)

Specifically, the amendments in this ASU require disclosure of: (i) a tabular reconciliation, using both percentages and reporting currency amounts, with prescribed categories that are required to be disclosed, and the separate disclosure and disaggregation of prescribed reconciling items with an effect equal to 5% or more of the amount determined by multiplying pretax income from continuing operations by the applicable statutory rate; (ii) a qualitative description of the states and local jurisdictions that make up the majority (greater than 50%) of the effect of the state and local income taxes; and (iii) amount of income taxes paid, net of refunds received, disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes and by individual jurisdictions that comprise 5% or more of total income taxes paid, net of refunds received. The ASU also includes other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures.

The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 on January 1, 2025. The adoption did not have a material impact on the financial statements.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans Receivable

The allowance for credit losses on loans is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the loan to present the net amount expected to be collected. Expected losses are evaluated and calculated on a collective, or pooled, basis for those loans which share similar risk characteristics. If the loan does not share risk characteristics with other loans, the Company will evaluate the loan on an individual basis. Individually evaluated loans are primarily non-accrual and collateral dependent loans. Periodically, certain substandard loans may be downgraded according to policy guidelines but will exhibit characteristics which do not require individual evaluation. The related allowance for those loans would be based on the pooling methodology in determining the appropriate reserve. Furthermore, the Company evaluates the pooling methodology at least annually to ensure that loans with similar risk characteristics are pooled appropriately. Loans are charged off against the allowance for credit losses when the Company believes the balances to be uncollectible. Expected recoveries do not exceed the aggregate of amounts previously charged off or expected to be charged off. The Company does not estimate expected losses on accrued interest receivable on loans, as accrued interest receivable is reversed or written off when the full collection of the accrued interest receivable related to a loan becomes doubtful.

The Company has chosen to segment its portfolio consistent with the manner in which it manages credit risk. The Company calculates estimated credit losses for these loan segments using quantitative models and qualitative factors. Further information on loan segmentation and the credit loss estimation is included in Note 3 – Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2025, the Company updated and enhanced its Allowance for Credit Losses (“ACL”) estimation methodology related to the observed loss histories across its peer group and the evaluation of qualitative factors under the CECL framework. Specifically, the Company expanded its comparative peer group and the associated loss history for these institutions to include observations through December 31, 2024 and separately, adopted a scorecard-based approach to assess qualitative adjustments applied to the modeled credit loss estimates. During the quarter ended March 31, 2026 the Company again evaluated its comparative peer groups across asset classes and refreshed the associated loss history for those institutions to include observations through December 31, 2025 and to ensure reasonable and supportable model forecasts.

These updates were made to enhance forecasting accuracy based on current economic data and to improve consistency, transparency, and documentation in the evaluation of qualitative factors across the Company’s loan portfolios. The scorecard incorporates a structured assessment of various internal and external indicators, including changes in credit underwriting standards, economic and business conditions, probability of loss estimates, and portfolio composition among other criteria. These indicators are based on predefined criteria, with the results used to determine directional adjustments to the modeled loss rates.

Neither the model calibration employed to update loss drivers, nor the adoption of the scorecard represented a change in accounting principle; but rather a refinement in estimation technique within the existing CECL framework. The updated methodology has been applied consistently in subsequent periods, including the three months ended March 31, 2026. The impact of these refinements was not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the three month period ending March 31, 2026.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)

The Company believes this enhancement better aligns the quantitative and qualitative framework with regulatory expectations and internal risk management practices, and supports more consistent application over time.

Individually Evaluated Loans

On a case-by-case basis, the Company may conclude that a loan should be evaluated on an individual basis based on its disparate risk characteristics. When the Company determines that a loan no longer shares similar risk characteristics with other loans in the portfolio, the allowance will be determined on an individual basis using the present value of expected cash flows or, for collateral-dependent loans, the fair value of the collateral as of the reporting date, less estimated selling costs, as applicable. If the fair value of the collateral is less than the amortized cost basis of the loan, the Company will charge off the difference between the fair value of the collateral, less costs to sell at the reporting date and the amortized cost basis of the loan.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Off-Balance Sheet Commitments

The Company is required to include unfunded commitments that are expected to be funded in the future within the allowance calculation, other than those that are unconditionally cancelable. To arrive at that reserve, the reserve percentage for each applicable segment is applied to the unused portion of the expected commitment balance and is multiplied by the expected funding rate. As noted above, the allowance for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments is included in other liabilities on the consolidated statement of financial condition and the related credit expense is recorded as provisions for credit losses in the consolidated statements of income.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Available for Sale Securities

For available for sale securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company first assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security’s amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income. For securities available for sale that do not meet the above criteria, the Company evaluates whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, the Company considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost and adverse conditions related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded for the credit loss, limited by the amount that the fair value is less than the amortized cost. Any impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses is recognized in other comprehensive income, net of tax.

Changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded as provision for, or reversal of, credit loss expense. Losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the uncollectibility of an available for sale security is confirmed or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met. The Company does not estimate expected losses on accrued interest receivable on investments, as accrued interest receivable is reversed or written off when the full collection of the accrued interest receivable related to an investment becomes doubtful.

As of March 31, 2026, the Company’s securities portfolio consisted of 245 securities, 210 of which were in an unrealized loss position. As of December 31, 2025, the Company’s securities portfolio consisted of 246 securities, 213 of which were in an unrealized loss position. Unrealized losses are primarily related to the Company’s mortgage backed securities, U.S. government agency securities, and investments in obligations of states and political subdivisions as discussed below.

Available for sale securities are evaluated to determine if a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis has resulted from a credit loss or other factors. An impairment related to credit factors would be recorded through an allowance for credit losses. The allowance is limited to the amount by which the security’s amortized cost basis exceeds the fair value. An impairment that has not been recorded through an allowance for credit losses shall be recorded through other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. Investment securities will be written down to fair value through the Consolidated Statements of Income when management intends to sell, or may be required to sell, the securities before they recover in value. Substantially all of the investment securities are backed by loans guaranteed by either U.S. government agencies or U.S government-sponsored entities, and management believes that default is highly unlikely given the lack of historical credit losses and governmental backing. Management believes that the unrealized losses on these securities are a function of changes in market interest rates and credit spreads, not changes in credit quality.

The Company’s available for sale debt securities portfolio includes U.S. government agencies and treasuries, mortgage-backed securities, corporate bonds, and obligations of states and political subdivisions, as well as other securities. These types of securities may include a risk of future impairment charges as a result of the changes in market interest rates, unpredictable nature of the U.S. economy and their potential negative effect on the future performance of the security issuers. Available for sale debt securities in unrealized loss positions are evaluated for impairment related to credit losses on a quarterly basis. Management reviewed the collectability of these securities, taking into consideration such factors as financial condition of the issuers, credit ratings when available, reported capital ratios of the issuers, among other pertinent factors. Management also evaluated the credit quality, the ability and intent to hold these securities to maturity, and the impact of interest rates on the respective fair values of the securities.

Based on that review and evaluation, it was determined that any change in fair value was temporary and did not result in impairment. Accordingly, no impairment was recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2026. Accrued interest on investments, which is excluded from the amortized cost of available for sale debt securities, totaled $2.1 million and $1.8 million at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and is presented within total accrued interest receivable on the consolidated statements of financial condition.

The Company does not intend to sell any of its available for sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position prior to recovery of their amortized cost basis, and it is more likely than not that the Company will not be required to sell any of its securities prior to recovery of their amortized cost basis.

There were no allowance for credit losses associated with investment securities for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. At March 31, 2026 management evaluated the requirement for an allowance for credit losses associated with the corporate securities portfolio. It was determined that ACL-investments was not required.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company engaged a third-party vendor to assist in the CECL calculation and internal governance framework to oversee the quarterly estimation process for the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”). The ACL calculation methodology relies on regression-based discounted cash flow (“DCF”) models that correlate relationships between certain financial metrics and external market and macroeconomic variables. The Company uses Probability of Default (“PD”) and Loss Given Default (“LGD”) with quantitative factors and qualitative considerations in the calculation of the allowance for credit losses for collectively evaluated loans. The Company uses a reasonable and supportable period of one year, at which point loss assumptions revert back to historical loss information by means of a one-year reversion period. Following are some of the key factors and assumptions that are used in the Company’s CECL calculations:

• methods based on probability of default and loss given default which are modeled based on macroeconomic scenarios;

• a reasonable and supportable forecast period determined based on management’s current review of macroeconomic environment;

• a reversion period after the reasonable and supportable forecast period;

• estimated prepayment rates based on the Company’s historical experience and future macroeconomic environment;

• estimated credit utilization rates based on the Company’s historical experience and future macroeconomic environment; and

• incorporation of qualitative factors not captured within the modeled results.

The qualitative factors include but are not limited to changes in lending policies, business conditions, changes in the nature and size of the portfolio, portfolio concentrations, and external factors such as competition.

Allowance for Credit Losses are aggregated for the major loan segments, with similar risk characteristics, summarized below. However, for the purposes of calculating the reserves, these segments may be further broken down into loan classes by risk characteristics that include but are not limited to regulatory call codes, industry type, geographic location, and collateral type.

Residential real estate loans involve certain risks such as interest rate risk and risk of non-repayment. Adjustable-rate residential real estate loans decrease the interest rate risk to the Bank that is associated with changes in interest rates but involve other risks, primarily because as interest rates rise, the payment by the borrower rises to the extent permitted by the terms of the loan, thereby increasing the potential for default. At the same time, the marketability of the underlying properties may be adversely affected by higher interest rates. Repayment risk may be affected by a number of factors including, but not necessarily limited to, job loss, divorce, illness and personal bankruptcy of the borrower.

Commercial and multi-family real estate lending entails additional risks as compared with residential family property lending. Such loans typically involve large loan balances to single borrowers or groups of related borrowers. The payment experience on such loans is typically dependent on the successful operation of the real estate project. The success of such projects is sensitive to changes in supply and demand conditions in the market for commercial real estate as well as general economic conditions.

Construction lending is generally considered to involve a high risk due to the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers and the effects of the general economic conditions on developers and builders. Moreover, a construction loan can involve additional risks because of the inherent difficulty in estimating both a property’s value at completion of the project and the estimated cost (including interest) of the project. The nature of these loans is such that they are generally difficult to evaluate and monitor. In addition, speculative construction loans to a builder are not necessarily pre-sold and thus pose a greater potential risk to the Bank than construction loans to individuals on their personal residence.

Commercial and industrial lending, including lines of credit, is generally considered higher risk due to the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers and the effects of general economic conditions on the business. Commercial business loans are primarily secured by inventories and other business assets. In many cases, any repossessed collateral for a defaulted commercial business loans will not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan balance.

Home equity lending entails certain risks such as interest rate risk and risk of non-repayment. The marketability of the underlying property may be adversely affected by higher interest rates, decreasing the collateral value securing the loan. Repayment risk can be affected by job loss, divorce, illness and personal bankruptcy of the borrower. Home equity line of credit lending entails securing an equity interest in the borrower’s home. In many cases, the Bank’s position in these loans is as a junior lien holder to another institution’s superior lien. This type of lending is often priced on an adjustable rate basis with the rate set at or above a predefined index. Adjustable-rate loans decrease the interest rate risk to the Bank that is associated with changes in interest rates but involve other risks, primarily because as interest rates rise, the payment by the borrower rises to the extent permitted by the terms of the loan, thereby increasing the potential for default.

Consumer loans generally have more credit risk because of the type and nature of the collateral and, in certain cases, the absence of collateral. Consumer loans generally have shorter terms and higher interest rates than other lending. In addition, consumer lending collections are dependent on the borrower’s continuing financial stability, and thus are more likely to be adversely affected by job loss, divorce, illness and personal bankruptcy. In many cases, any repossessed collateral for a defaulted consumer loan will not provide an adequate source of repayment of the outstanding loan.

Individually Analyzed Loans

Effective January 1, 2023, the Company began analyzing loans on an individual basis when management determined that the loan no longer exhibited risk characteristics consistent with the risk characteristics existing in its designated pool of loans, under the Company's CECL methodology. Loans individually analyzed include certain nonaccrual commercial, as well as certain accruing loans previously identified under prior troubled debt restructuring (TDR) guidance.

As of March 31, 2026, the amortized cost basis of individually analyzed loans was $66.4 million, of which $63.6 million were considered collateral dependent. As of December 31, 2025, the amortized cost basis of individually analyzed loans was $59.2 million, of which $56.3 million were considered collateral dependent. For collateral dependent loans where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is likely to be substantially provided through the sale or operation of the collateral, the ACL is measured based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the amortized cost basis of the loan, at measurement date. Certain assets held as collateral may be exposed to future deterioration in fair value, particularly due to changes in real estate markets or usage.

The following table presents the amortized cost basis and related allowance for credit loss of individually analyzed loans considered to be collateral dependent as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025:

Credit Quality Indicators: The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information and current economic trends, among other factors. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. This analysis includes loans with an outstanding balance greater than $350 thousand and non-homogeneous loans, such as commercial and commercial real estate loans. This analysis is performed on an annual basis. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or the institution’s credit position at some future date.

Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well- defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.

Loans not meeting the criteria above that are analyzed individually as part of the above described process are considered to be pass-rated loans.

Note 4 — Fair Value

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value:

Investment Securities: The fair values for investment securities are determined by quoted market prices, if available (Level 1). For securities where quoted prices are not available, fair values are calculated based on market prices of similar securities (Level 2), using matrix pricing. Matrix pricing is a mathematical technique commonly used to price debt securities that are not actively traded, values debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs). For securities where quoted prices or market prices of similar securities are not available, fair values are calculated using discounted cash flows or other market indicators (Level 3).

Individually Evaluated, or Collateral Dependent Loans and Other Real Estate Owned: The fair value of collateral dependent loans that are individually evaluated for impairment is generally based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach and resulted in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. Non-real estate collateral may be valued using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower’s financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business, resulting in a Level 3 fair value classification. Collateral dependent loans are evaluated on a quarterly basis for additional impairment and adjusted in accordance with the allowance policy.

Appraisals are performed by certified general appraisers (for commercial properties) or certified residential appraisers (for residential properties) whose qualifications and licenses have been reviewed and verified by a third-party appraisal management company that the Company has engaged in accordance with internal vendor management policies and approval of the Company’s Board of Directors. Once received, the appraisal review function is conducted by the appraisal management company and consists of a review of the assumptions and approaches utilized in the appraisal as well as the overall resulting fair value in comparison with independent data sources such as recent market data or industry-wide statistics. Through this review, the appraisal management company evaluates the validity of the appraised value and the strength of the conclusions; which are subsequently confirmed by a member of the Credit Department. Discounts to the appraised value are then applied to recognize the carrying costs incurred until disposition, realtor fees, deterioration in the quality of the asset, and the age of the appraisal. The net effect of these adjustments were included in the charge-off to the allowance upon acquisition of the foreclosed property and/or upon partial charge-off of the collateral dependent loan. The most recent analysis of property appraisals including the appropriate discount rates are incorporated into the allowance methodology for the respective loan portfolio segments.

These fees are primarily earned over time as the Company provides the contracted services and are generally assessed based on a tiered scale of the market value of the assets under management at month-end or quarter-end.

Note 9 — Segment Information

The Company's reportable segments are determined by the Chief Financial Officer, who is the designated Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), based upon information provided about the Company's products and services offered, primarily distinguished between banking and wealth management services provided by the Bank's wealth management division. They are also distinguished by the level of information provided to the CODM, who uses such information to review performance of various

Table of Contents

ORANGE COUNTY BANCORP, INC.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Dollar amounts in thousands except per share data)

components of the business. Financial performance of the Company's business segments is evaluated by the CODM through evaluation of revenue sources, significant expenses, and budget to actual results in assessing the performance of the Company's segments and in determining the allocation of resources. The CODM reviews revenue sources to evaluate product pricing and significant expense to assess performance of each segment to evaluate compensation of certain employees. Segment pretax profit or loss is used to assess the performance of the banking segment by monitoring the margin between interest revenue and interest expense. Segment pretax profit or loss is used to assess the performance of the Wealth Management Division by monitoring wealth management fee income and AUM. Loans, investments, and deposits primarily provide the revenues in the banking operation and wealth management fee income provide the revenues for the Wealth Management Division. Interest expense, provision for credit losses, salaries and benefits expense, occupancy costs, and technology expense provide the significant expenses in the banking segment, while salaries and benefits, occupancy, and technology costs are the significant expenses in the Wealth Management Division. All operations are domestic.

Management uses certain methodologies to allocate income and expense to the business segments. Certain expenses are allocated to segments based on proportionate use of services and related expenses. These include support unit expenses such as technology fees, administrative costs, operational expenses, and other charges associated with support functions.

Note 10 — Regulatory Capital Matters

The Bank is subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Capital adequacy guidelines and prompt corrective regulations involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgements by regulators. Failure to meet the minimum capital requirements can initiate regulatory action. The final rules implementing Basel Committee on Banking Supervision’s capital guidelines for U.S. banks, (Basel III rules), became effective for the Bank on January 1, 2015 with full compliance with all of the requirements being phased in over a multi-year schedule, and fully phased in by January 1, 2019. Under the Basel III rules, the Bank must hold a capital conservation buffer above the adequately capitalized risk-based capital ratios. The regulations limit capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments to management if the institution does not hold a “capital conservation buffer.” The capital conservation buffer is 2.5%. The net unrealized gain or loss on available for sale securities is not included in computing regulatory capital.

During June 2025, the Company completed a follow-on common stock offering with gross proceeds of approximately $46.0 million before discounts and expenses with net proceeds estimated at approximately $43.6 million. The Company downstreamed $41.0 million to the Bank. The offering issued approximately 2.0 million shares of common stock priced at $23.25.

In September 2025, the Company issued $25.0 million in aggregate principal amount of fixed to floating subordinated notes (the “2025 Notes”) to certain institutional investors. The 2025 Notes are non-callable for five years, have a stated maturity of September 30, 2035, and bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.50% per year until September 30, 2030. From September 30, 2030 to the maturity date or early redemption date, the interest rate will reset quarterly to a level equal to the then current three-month SOFR plus 320.5 basis points, payable quarterly in arrears.

Prompt corrective action regulations provide five classifications: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized, although these terms are not used to represent overall financial condition. If adequately capitalized, regulatory approval is required to accept brokered deposits. If undercapitalized, capital distributions are limited, as is asset growth and expansion and capital restoration plans are required. Capital levels at March 31, 2026 and at December 31, 2025 exceeded the regulatory minimum levels for the Bank to be considered well capitalized under the prompt corrective action regulations.

Actual and required capital amounts and ratios are presented below at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 for the Bank.

If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from what we anticipate. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict those events or how they may affect us. In addition, we cannot assess the impact of each factor on our business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

Overview

We are a bank holding company headquartered in Middletown, New York and registered under the Bank Holding Company Act. Through our wholly owned subsidiaries, Orange Bank & Trust Company and Orange Investment Advisors, formally known as Hudson Valley Investment Advisors, Inc., we offer full-service commercial and consumer banking products and services and trust and wealth management services to small businesses, middle-market enterprises, local municipal governments and affluent individuals in the Lower Hudson Valley region, the New York metropolitan area and nearby markets in Connecticut and New Jersey. By combining the high-touch service and relationship-based focus of a community bank with the extensive suite of financial products and services offered by our larger competitors, we believe we can continue to capitalize on the growth opportunities available in our market areas. We also offer a variety of deposit accounts to businesses and consumers, including checking accounts and a full line of municipal banking accounts through our business banking platform. These activities, together with our 16 offices and one loan production office, continue to produce a stable source of low- cost core deposits and a diverse loan portfolio with attractive risk-adjusted yields. We also offer private banking services through Orange Bank & Trust Private Banking, a division of Orange Bank & Trust Company, and provide trust and wealth management services through Orange Bank & Trust Company’s trust services department and OIA, which combined had $1.6 billion in assets under management at March 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2026, our assets, loans, deposits and stockholders’ equity totaled $2.7 billion, $1.9 billion, $2.4 billion and $291.7 million, respectively.

Table of Contents

At March 31, 2026, we operate from our main office and 15 branch offices. We own our main office in Middletown, New York, and three branch offices which are located in Chester, Newburgh and in Montgomery, New York. We lease twelve branch offices located in Middletown, Goshen, Cortlandt Manor, White Plains, Mamaroneck, New City, Mt. Pleasant, Mount Vernon, Nanuet, Yonkers, and two Bronx locations, all in New York. The branches are leased under agreements that may be renewed for various periods. In addition, OIA operates from leased offices located in Goshen, New York. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the total net book value of our leasehold improvements, furniture, fixtures and equipment was approximately $15.6 million and $15.5 million, respectively.

Key Factors Affecting Our Business

Net Interest Income. Net interest income is the most significant contributor to our net income and is the difference between the interest and fees earned on interest-earning assets and the interest expense incurred in connection with interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income is primarily a function of the average balances and yields/rates of these interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. These factors are influenced by internal considerations such as product mix and risk appetite as well as external influences such as economic conditions, competition for loans and deposits and market interest rates.

The cost of our deposits and short-term borrowings is primarily based on short-term interest rates, which are largely driven by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System’s (the “FRB”) actions and market competition. The yields generated by our loans and securities are typically affected by short-term and long-term interest rates, which are driven by market competition and market rates often impacted by the FRB’s actions. The level of net interest income is influenced by movements in such interest rates and the pace at which such movements occur.

Considering the impact of the FRB’s rate policy during 2025 and current 2026 economic conditions, it is possible that interest rates may be revised during the current year. Although our asset sensitivity remains relatively neutral, this movement could have a significant impact on our net interest income.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income is also a contributor to our net income. Noninterest income consists primarily of our investment advisory income, trust income generated by OIA and our trust department, as well as income generated by our BOLI investment earnings. In addition, noninterest income is also impacted by net gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities, service charges on deposit accounts, and other fee income consisting primarily of debit card fee income, checkbook fees and rebates and safe deposit box rental income.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense includes salaries, employee benefits, occupancy, professional fees, directors’ fees and expenses, computer software expense, federal deposit insurance assessment, advertising expenses, advisor expenses related to trust income and other expenses. In evaluating our level of noninterest expense, we closely monitor our efficiency ratio. The efficiency ratio is calculated by dividing noninterest expense to net interest income plus noninterest income. We continue to seek to identify ways to streamline our business and operate more efficiently.

Credit Quality. We have well established loan policies and underwriting practices that have resulted in relatively low levels of loan charge-offs and nonperforming assets in recent periods. We strive to originate quality loans that will maintain the credit quality of our loan portfolio. However, credit trends in the markets in which we operate are largely impacted by economic conditions beyond our control and can adversely impact our financial condition.

Competition. The industry and businesses in which we operate are highly competitive. We may see increased competition in different areas including interest rates, underwriting standards and product offerings and structure. While we seek to maintain an appropriate return on our investments, we anticipate that we will experience continued pressure on our net interest margin as we operate in this competitive environment.

Economic Conditions. Our business and financial performance are affected by economic conditions generally in the United States and more directly in the market of the Lower Hudson Valley region, the New York metropolitan area and nearby markets in Connecticut and New Jersey where we primarily operate. The significant economic factors that are most relevant and impactful to our business and our financial performance include, but are not limited to, real estate values, interest rates and unemployment rates.

Table of Contents

Regulatory Trends. We operate in a highly regulated environment and nearly all of our operations are subject to extensive regulation and supervision. Bank or securities regulators, Congress, the State of New York, the FRB and the New York State Department of Financial Services (the “NYSDFS”) may revise the laws and regulations applicable to us, may impose new laws and regulations, increase the level of scrutiny of our business in the supervisory process, and pursue additional enforcement actions against financial institutions. Future legislative and regulatory changes such as these may increase our costs and have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. The legislative and regulatory trends that will affect us in the future are impossible to predict with any certainty.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Critical accounting estimates are necessary in the application of certain accounting policies and procedures and are particularly susceptible to significant change. Critical accounting policies are defined as those involving significant judgments and assumptions by management that could have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or on income under different assumptions or conditions. These critical estimates, policies and their application are periodically reviewed with the Audit Committee and the board of directors. Management believes that the most critical accounting estimates, which involve the most complex or subjective decisions or assessments, are as follows:

Allowance for Credit Losses. Management believes that the determination of the allowance for credit losses involves a high degree of complexity and requires management to make difficult and subjective judgments, which often require assumptions or estimates about highly uncertain matters. Changes in these judgments, assumptions or estimates could materially impact the results of operations for Orange County Bancorp. The methodology, assumptions, and governance of this CECL model have been codified in a policy document that was most recently reviewed and approved by the Company’s Audit & Risk Committee during the fourth quarter of 2025. While there were no fundamental changes to the CECL model during the quarter, management evaluated certain probability of default assumptions as well as the loss driver analysis. This evaluation resulted in adjustment of certain assumptions but were not considered significant changes to the model. Accordingly, management believes there were no significant changes to the critical accounting estimates during the three months ended March 31, 2026, and as disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 16, 2026. A summary of our accounting policies, including the Allowance for Credit Losses, is included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition

Summary Financial Condition. The following table sets forth a summary of the material categories of our balance sheet at the dates indicated:


						Change
						March 31, 2026

Stockholders’ Equity		291,664		284,364		7,300		2.6	%

Assets. Our total assets were $2.7 billion at March 31, 2026, an increase of $46.2 million, or 1.7%, from December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily driven by increases of $53.3 million in cash and due from banks and $2.2 million in loans, while investment securities, available for sale, decreased by $11.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Table of Contents

Cash and due from banks. Cash and due from banks increased $53.3 million, or 26.1%, to $257.5 million at March 31, 2026, from $204.2 million at December 31, 2025. The increase was mainly the result of management’s focus on deposit growth during the three months ended March 31, 2026 combined with repayments of loans during the quarter which led to higher levels of liquidity.

Loans. The following table sets forth the composition of our loan portfolio by type of loan at the dates indicated.


		At March 31,					At December 31,
		2026					2025
		Amount			Percent		Amount			Percent

		(Dollars in thousands)
Commercial and industrial		$	230,972		11.83	%	$	249,633		12.80	%
Commercial real estate			1,480,805		75.86	%		1,480,062		75.89	%
Commercial real estate construction			106,868		5.48	%		99,262		5.09	%
Residential real estate			65,846		3.37	%		65,290		3.35	%
Home equity			26,894		1.38	%		22,618		1.16	%
Consumer			40,578		2.08	%		33,419		1.71	%
Total loans			1,951,963		100.00	%		1,950,284		100.00	%
Allowance for credit losses			(27,844)					(28,335)
Total loans, net		$	1,924,119				$	1,921,949

Net loans increased $2.2 million, or 0.1%, and remained relatively level at approximately $2.0 billion at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The slight increase included growth within the CRE construction category, home equity segment, and consumer sector offset by a decrease in commercial and industrial loans. Commercial real estate construction loans increased by $7.6 million, or 7.7%, to $106.9 million at March 31, 2026 from $99.3 million at December 31, 2025. Home equity loans increased $4.3 million, or 18.9%, reaching $26.9 million at March 31, 2026 from $22.6 million at December 31, 2025. Consumer loans grew $7.2 million, or 21.4%, to $40.6 million at March 31, 2026 from $33.4 million at December 31, 2025. Commercial and industrial loans decreased $18.7 million, or 7.5%, to $231.0 million at March 31, 2026 from $249.6 million at December 31, 2025. Commercial real estate and residential real estate loans remained level between March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The overall diversification within the commercial real estate portfolio continues to provide stability while we remained focused on loan originations to new and existing customers during the three months ended March 31, 2026 as well as our continued commitment to geographic expansion in our market area.

Non-performing Assets

Management reviews a loan for individual evaluation when it is non-performing or when it is probable at least a portion of the loan will not be collected in accordance with the original terms due to a deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower or the value of the underlying collateral if the loan is collateral dependent. When a loan is determined to be non-performing, the measurement of the loan in the allowance for credit losses is based on the fair value of the collateral for all collateral-dependent loans. Non-accrual loans are loans for which collectability is questionable and, therefore, interest on such loans will no longer be recognized on an accrual basis. All loans that become 90 days or more delinquent are placed on non-accrual status unless the loan is well secured and in the process of collection. When loans are placed on non-accrual status, unpaid accrued interest is fully reversed, and further income is recognized only to the extent received on a cash basis or cost recovery method.

When we acquire real estate as a result of foreclosure, the real estate is classified as real estate owned. The real estate owned is recorded at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less estimated costs to sell. Soon after acquisition, we order a new appraisal to determine the current market value of the property. Any excess of the recorded value of the loan satisfied over the market value of the property is charged against the allowance for credit losses, or, if the existing allowance is inadequate, charged to expense of the current period. After acquisition, all costs incurred in maintaining the property are expensed. Costs relating to the development and improvement of the property, however, are capitalized to the extent of estimated fair value less estimated costs to sell. Management will consider a modification of loan terms, such as a reduction of the interest rate to below market terms, capitalizing past due interest or extending the maturity date and possibly a partial forgiveness of the principal amount due, when it is deemed appropriate based on individual borrower conditions. Interest income on restructured loans is accrued after the borrower demonstrates the ability to pay under the restructured terms through a sustained period of repayment performance, which is generally six consecutive months.

Table of Contents

The following table sets forth information regarding our non-performing assets. Non-performing loans aggregated approximately $26.1 million at March 31, 2026 as compared to $11.1 million at December 31, 2025.

Non-performing loans at March 31, 2026 totaled $26.1 million and consisted of $23.0 million related to commercial real estate loans, $2.3 million associated with commercial and industrial loans, and $833 thousand of home equity loans. Although there was an increase in the commercial and industrial segment of the portfolio, the level of non-performing loans was still mainly related to the commercial real estate portfolio. The commercial real estate non-performing loans were mainly the result of payment disruption and non-accrual classification during the quarter for a $14.3 million participation related to a senior living facility and the continued non-performance of a non-accrual commercial real estate office space loan participation which was classified as non-accrual during the second quarter of 2024. The office space loan remained at $6.0 million as of March 31, 2026. The other loans designated as non-accrual were based upon individual analysis and payment performance. We had no other real estate owned at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Led by the increase in non-accrual loans, non-performing assets increased $15.0 million, or 134.4%, to $26.1 million, or 0.96% of total assets, at March 31, 2026 from $11.1 million, or 0.42% of total assets, at December 31, 2025. Management continues to focus on credit quality and attention to assets with potential concerns.

From time to time, as part of our loss mitigation strategy, we may renegotiate loan terms based on the economic and legal reasons related to the borrower’s financial difficulties. There were no loans modified due to financial difficulties during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Classified Assets. Federal regulations provide that loans and other assets of lesser quality should be classified as “substandard”, “doubtful” or “loss” assets. An asset is considered “substandard” if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. “Substandard” assets include those characterized by the “distinct possibility” that we will sustain “some loss” if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as “doubtful” have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified “substandard,” with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make “collection or liquidation in full,” on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, “highly questionable and improbable.” Assets

Table of Contents

classified as “loss” are those considered “uncollectible” and of such little value that their continuance as assets without the establishment of a specific loss reserve is not warranted. We designate an asset as “special mention” if the asset has a potential weakness that warrants management’s close attention.

The following table summarizes classified assets of all portfolio types at the dates indicated:

On the basis of management’s review of our assets, we have classified $80.9 million of our assets at March 31, 2026 as substandard compared to $73.7 million at December 31, 2025, with the increase due to a combination of risk ratings resulting from certain trends, including delinquencies within the loan portfolio, and the sale or chargeoff of certain loans. There were no doubtful assets as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. We designated $47.2 million of our assets at March 31, 2026 as special mention compared to $58.4 million designated as special mention at December 31, 2025.

Allowance for Credit Losses

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326), which replaced the incurred loss methodology with CECL for financial instruments measured at amortized cost and other commitments to extend credit. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation allowance for management’s estimate of expected credit losses in the loan portfolio. The process to determine expected credit losses utilizes analytic tools and judgement and is reviewed on a quarterly basis. When management is reasonably certain that a loan balance is not fully collectable, an analysis is completed and a specific reserve may be established or a full or partial charge off could be recorded against the allowance. Subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. Management estimates the allowance balance via a quantitative analysis which considers available information from internal and external sources related to past loan loss and prepayment experience and current conditions, as well as the incorporation of reasonable and supportable forecasts. Management evaluates a variety of factors including available published economic information in arriving at its forecast. Expected credit losses are estimated over the contractual term of the loans, adjusted for expected prepayments when appropriate. Also included in the allowance for credit losses are qualitative reserves that are expected, but, in management’s assessment, may not be adequately represented in the quantitative analysis or the forecasts described above. Factors may include changes in lending policies and procedures, size and composition of the portfolio, experience and depth of management and the effect of external factors such as competition, legal and regulatory requirements, among others. The allowance is available for any loan that, in management’s judgment, should be charged off. Although management uses the best information available, the level of the allowance for credit losses remains an estimate, which is subject to significant judgment and short-term change. Various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Bank’s allowance for credit losses. Such agencies may require the Company to make additional provisions for credit losses based upon information available to them at the time of their examination. Furthermore, the majority of the Bank’s loans are secured by real estate in the State of New York. Accordingly, the collectability of a substantial portion of the carrying value of the Bank’s loan portfolio is susceptible to changes in local market conditions and any adverse economic conditions. Future adjustments to the provision for credit losses and allowance for credit losses may be necessary due to economic, operating, regulatory and other conditions beyond the Company’s control.

As presented below, the allowance for credit losses increased by $1.4 million, or 5.6%, to $27.8 million, or 1.43% of total loans at March 31, 2026, from $26.4 million, or 1.42% of total loans at March 31, 2025. The increase in the allowance was primarily due to

loan growth of the overall portfolio during 2025 and the first quarter of 2026. The three months ended March 31, 2026 also included net recoveries of approximately $2.0 thousand.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the commercial and industrial segment of the loan portfolio had a net charge-off amount of $17 thousand, or a net charge-off ratio of 0.74%. The consumer loan portfolio experienced net recoveries during the quarter of approximately $19 thousand related to collection of certain loans. For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, no other category of loans had a net charge-off ratio which exceeded 0.01% either individually, or in the aggregate.

Total deposits increased $39.4 million, or 1.7%, to $2.4 billion at March 31, 2026 from $2.3 billion at December 31, 2025 driven by continued deposit growth focused on commercial transaction accounts during the first quarter of 2026. This growth allows for continued stability and strength of liquidity levels for the Bank. Non-interest-bearing demand deposits increased $1.7 million due to normal business activity and continued focus on transactional accounts during the first three months of 2026. Interest bearing demand deposits experienced a $53.4 million, or 12.7%, increase while money market deposits decreased $369.7 million, and savings deposits increased by $447.0 million during the first three months of 2026 primarily related to our continued strategic focus on business account activity and a shift in certain customer accounts from money market accounts to savings accounts during the quarter. At March 31, 2026, our core deposits (which includes all deposits except for certificates of deposit) totaled $2.3 billion, or 97.2% of our total deposits. Certificates of deposit decreased by $93.1 million, or 58.6%, mainly from non-renewals of brokered deposits during the three months ended March 31, 2026. We held approximately $30.0 million of brokered deposits (excluding reciprocal deposits obtained through the Certificate Deposit Account Registry Service (CDARS) and Insured Cash Sweep (ICS) networks) at March 31, 2026 as compared to $125.0 million at December 31, 2025. This decrease represents a continued strategic initiative to reduce short term brokered deposits as a result of increased core deposits and allow for replacement of maturing brokered deposits with transactional customer deposits with lower interest expense. Our reciprocal deposits obtained through the CDARS and ICS networks totaled $128.8 million at March 31, 2026 and the CDARS and ICS deposits totaled $101.8 million at December 31, 2025. Uninsured deposits, net of fully collateralized municipal relationships, remained stable and represent approximately 49% of total deposits as of March 31, 2026 and 46% of total deposits as of December 31, 2025.

Borrowings

Our borrowings consist of both short-term and long-term borrowings and provide us with one of our sources of funding. Maintaining available borrowing capacity provides us with a contingent source of liquidity.

Total borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York were $10.0 million at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 as deposit growth exceeded loan growth during the period. This level balance represents the continued focus by management to reduce borrowings and the related interest expense by using lower-cost deposits for funding. We have the unused capacity to borrow an additional $563.3 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York as of March 31, 2026.

In September 2025, we issued $25.0 million in aggregate principal amount of fixed to floating subordinated notes (the “2025 Notes”) to certain institutional investors. The 2025 Notes are non-callable for five years, have a stated maturity of September 30, 2035, and bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.50% per year until September 30, 2030. From September 30, 2030 to the maturity date or early redemption date, the interest rate will reset quarterly to a level equal to the then current three-month SOFR plus 320.5 basis points, payable quarterly in arrears. A portion of these notes was used to redeem the September 2020 subordinated notes.

Stockholders’ Equity

Stockholders’ equity increased $7.3 million, or 2.6%, to $291.7 million at March 31, 2026 from $284.4 million at December 31, 2025. The increase was due to the combination of $11.3 million in net income offset by an increase in unrealized losses of approximately $2.8 million on the market value of investment securities within the Company’s equity as accumulated other

General. Net income increased $2.6 million, or 29.6%, to $11.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $8.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was driven primarily by an increase of $4.3 million related to net

interest income growth and a reduction in provision for credit losses of $638 thousand partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense of $1.4 million as well as a reduction in noninterest income of $179 thousand during the first quarter of 2026 as compared to the same quarter in 2025.

Interest Income. Interest income increased $2.5 million, or 7.9%, to $34.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $31.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. This increase was driven by a $142.6 million increase in the balance of average interest-earning assets between the two periods. Within the average balance of interest-earning assets, the average balance of loans grew $125.4 million, or 6.9%, between the three months ended March 31, 2026 and March 31, 2025. During the current period, the average yield of interest-earning assets increased by 10 basis points from 5.33% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 to 5.43% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as a result primarily of increased yields and fees associated with loans originated in 2025 and the early part of 2026.

Interest income on loans increased by $2.5 million, or 9.1%, to $29.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $27.3 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in interest income on loans was primarily due to the increase in the average balance of loans combined with higher yields during the current period. The average balance of these loans increased by $125.4 million, or 6.9%, to $2.0 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in the average balance of loans was due to growth in commercial real estate construction loan balances as well as growth in our home equity loan portfolio. The average yield on loans increased by 13 basis points to 6.18% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from 6.05% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as a result of focused loan pricing during 2025 and the first quarter of 2026.

Interest income on securities decreased by $232 thousand to $2.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $3.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in interest income on securities was driven primarily by a decrease in the average balance of securities outstanding during the current period due to certain maturities and securities sales. The average balance of securities decreased by $24.6 million, or 5.6%, to $417.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $441.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The average yield on investment securities decreased by six basis points overall to 2.81% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from 2.87% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in the average yield reflected the continued maturity of investments coupled with the effect of lower yields.

Interest Expense. Interest expense decreased $1.8 million, or 21.3%, to $6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $8.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decreased interest expense was primarily due to the continued reduction of interest costs associated with lower FHLB advances and borrowings as well as reduced higher cost brokered deposits due to increased customer deposit levels during the quarter. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased forty-three basis points to 1.62% during the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to 2.05% for the three month period ended March 31, 2025. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities decreased by $10.2 million, or 0.6%, exceeding $1.6 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits decreased by $1.1 million to $6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $7.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in interest expense on interest-bearing deposits was due mainly to a decrease in the average rate on interest-bearing deposits during the current period. The average balance of interest-bearing deposits increased by $59.8 million, or 3.9%, to $1.6 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to $1.5 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as a result of the increases in the average balances of total core deposits which excludes certificates of deposit, which included lower levels of brokered deposits at higher rates. The average cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased thirty-six basis points to 1.52% during the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to 1.88% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 as a result of the lower interest rate environment.

We also recorded interest expense of $430 thousand during the three months ended March 31, 2026 related to subordinated debt as compared to $230 thousand in interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase is related to the issuance in September 2025 of $25.0 million in outstanding subordinated notes.

The interest expense related to borrowings in the first quarter of 2026 decreased to $98 thousand at an average cost of 3.97% as compared to interest expense of $931 thousand at an average cost of 4.44% for the same period in 2025. The first quarter 2026 average FHLB and other borrowings decreased to $10.0 million compared to $85.0 million of average FHLB and other borrowings in the same quarter of 2025. The decrease in average borrowings was the direct result of paydowns driven by increased deposits during

the current period. Management was able to replace higher cost FHLB borrowings with lower cost deposits and reduce interest expense during the current period. Although borrowings remain a potential source of strategic funding for the Company, the reduction in borrowings during the quarter reflects the ability of the Company to increase deposits and strategically reduce related interest costs.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income increased $4.3 million, or 18.1%, to $27.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $23.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 due to the increase in income from average interest earning assets and the reduction of interest costs associated with interest bearing liabilities. Net interest rate spread increased by 53 basis points to 3.81% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from 3.28% for the three months ended March 31, 2025, reflecting a 10 basis points increase in the average yield on interest-earning assets combined with a 43 basis points decrease in the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The net interest margin rose by forty-five basis points to 4.40% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from 3.95% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 due to the lower interest rate environment for short term funding, the impact of managed funding and deposit cost, and increased yields on the lending portfolio during the current period.

Provision for Credit Losses. The Company recognized a net recovery of $436 thousand in the provision for credit losses during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to a provision of $202 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decreased provision for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to the same period in 2025 reflected slower loan growth during the first quarter of 2026 combined with the effect of lower levels of reserves associated with certain types of loans closed during 2026. The allowance for credit losses to total loans was 1.43% as of March 31, 2026, a decrease of two basis points, or 1.4%, versus 1.45% as of December 31, 2025.

Noninterest income decreased by $179 thousand, or 4.1%, reaching $4.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 as compared to $4.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Our Wealth Management division revenues, which include our Trust and Asset Management businesses also experienced a decrease and represented a 5.0% decrease quarter-over-quarter, to $3.3 million for the first quarter of 2026 as compared to $3.4 million for the first quarter of 2025 as a result of an overall net decrease in assets-under-management. During the same period, assets-under-management decreased to $1.6 billion at March 31, 2026 from $1.7 billion at March 31, 2025.

Non-interest expense was $17.9 million for the first quarter of 2026, reflecting an increase of approximately $1.4 million, or 8.7%, as compared to $16.5 million for the same period in 2025. The increase in non-interest expense for the current three month period was due primarily to continued investment in overall Company growth, including salaries and benefits, professional fees, and advertising expense. Our efficiency ratio improved to 55.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from 58.9% for the same period in 2025.

Provision for Income Tax. Our provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $3.3 million, compared to $2.6 million for the same period in 2025. The increase was directly related to provisions associated with higher levels of pre-tax income as well as the effect of certain tax adjustments for the quarter. Our effective tax rate for the three month period ended March 31, 2026 was 22.7%, as compared to 22.9% for the same period in 2025.

Financial Position and Results of Operations of our Wealth Management Business Segment

We conduct our business through two business segments: (1) our banking business segment, which involves the delivery of loan and deposit products to our customers through Orange Bank & Trust Company; and (2) our wealth management business segment, which includes asset management and trust services to individuals and institutions through OIA and Orange Bank & Trust Company that provides trust and investment management fee income.

The following table presents the statements of income and total assets for our reportable business segments for the periods indicated:

The market value of assets under management and/or administration at March 31, 2026 was $1.6 billion as compared to $1.7 billion at March 31, 2025. This includes assets held at both Orange Bank & Trust Company and OIA at March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Our income related to our wealth management business segment, which we record as noninterest income, decreased $171 thousand or 5.0%, to $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $3.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was mainly due to the impact of equity markets combined with lower levels of assets under management.

Our expenses related to our wealth management business segment, which we record as noninterest expense, decreased $159 thousand, or 6.7%, to $2.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $2.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease in expenses was primarily due to lower staffing levels during the period associated with the reorganization of the division during 2025.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity. Liquidity is the ability to meet current and future financial obligations of a short-term nature. Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments and maturities and sales of securities. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.

Our most liquid assets are cash and due from banks. The levels of these assets are dependent on our operating, financing, lending and investing activities during any given period. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, cash and due from banks totaled $257.5 million and $204.2 million, respectively. Securities classified as available-for-sale, which provide additional sources of liquidity, totaled $407.5 million at March 31, 2026 and $419.4 million at December 31, 2025.

Certificates of deposit due within one year of March 31, 2026 totaled $55.3 million, or 83.9% of total certificates of deposit. The largest concentration of certificates of deposit at March 31, 2026 represented brokered deposits in the amount of $30.0 million for diversified funding purposes.

We participate in IntraFi Network, allowing us to provide access to multi-million-dollar FDIC deposit insurance protection on deposits for customers, businesses and public entities. We can elect to sell or repurchase this funding as reciprocal deposits from other IntraFi Network banks depending on our funding needs. At March 31, 2026, we had a total of $128.8 million of IntraFi Network deposits, all of which were repurchased as reciprocal deposits from the IntraFi Network.

Although customer deposits remain our preferred source of funds, maintaining back up sources of liquidity is part of our prudent liquidity risk management practices. We have the ability to borrow from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as well as other correspondent banks. At March 31, 2026, we had a total capacity of $660.7 million at the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York, of which $87.4 million was used to collateralize municipal deposits, and $10.0 million was utilized for long-term advances. At March 31, 2026, we also held $63.0 million of collateral at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York which could be utilized to provide additional funding through the discount window and an additional $168.8 million was held as collateral for availability in borrowings through the Federal Reserve Bank’s Borrower-In-Custody (“BIC”) program. We also maintain additional borrowing capacity of $20.0 million of discretionary lines of credit with correspondent banks at March 31, 2026 with no outstanding balance. We also have a borrowing agreement with Atlantic Community Bankers Bank (“ACBB”) to provide short-term borrowings of $5.0 million at March 31, 2026. There were no outstanding borrowings with ACBB at March 31, 2026.

Our cash flows are comprised of three primary classifications: cash flows from operating activities, investing activities, and financing activities. Net cash used in operating activities was $10.2 million and $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Net cash from investing activities, which consists primarily of disbursements for loan originations and the purchase of securities, offset by principal collections on loans, proceeds from the sale of securities and proceeds from maturing securities and pay downs on securities, was $6.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and net cash used in investing activities was $24.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. Net cash provided by financing activities, consisting of activity in deposit accounts and borrowings, was $36.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and net cash from financing activities was $33.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

We remain committed to maintaining a strong liquidity position. We monitor and evaluate our liquidity position daily. We anticipate that we will have sufficient funds to meet our current funding commitments. Based on our deposit growth and retention, current pricing strategy and regulatory restrictions, we have the ability to retain and increase a substantial portion of maturing time deposits, and we can supplement our funding with borrowings in the event that we allow these deposits to run off at maturity.We remain committed to maintaining a strong liquidity position.

Capital Resources. We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the FRB and the NYSDFS. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we exceeded all applicable regulatory capital requirements, and were considered “well capitalized” under regulatory guidelines. See Note 10 to the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for actual and required capital amounts and ratios at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. We are a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, which involve elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheets. Our exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of the instruments. We use the same credit policies in making commitments as we do for on-balance sheet instruments.

At March 31, 2026, we had $434.0 million in loan commitments outstanding. We also had $20.2 million in standby letters of credit at March 31, 2026.

Effect of Inflation and Changing Prices

The consolidated financial statements and related financial data included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The primary impact of inflation on our operations is reflected in increased operating costs. Unlike most industrial companies, virtually all the assets and liabilities of a financial institution are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates generally have a more significant impact on a financial institution’s performance than do general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the prices of goods and services.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Management of Market Risk

General. The principal objective of our asset and liability management function is to evaluate the interest rate risk within the balance sheet and pursue a controlled assumption of interest rate risk while maximizing net income and preserving adequate levels of liquidity and capital. The board of directors of our Bank has oversight of our asset and liability management function, which is managed by our Asset/Liability Management Committee and our Finance Committee. Our Asset/Liability Management Committee meets regularly to review, among other things, the sensitivity of our assets and liabilities to market interest rate changes, local and national market conditions and market interest rates. That group also reviews our liquidity, capital, deposit mix, loan mix and investment positions. As a financial institution, our primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Fluctuations in interest rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on most of our assets and liabilities, and the fair value of all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, other than those that have a short term to maturity. Interest rate risk is the potential of economic losses due to future interest rate changes. These economic losses can be reflected as a loss of future net interest income and/or a loss of current fair values. The objective is to measure the effect on net interest income and to adjust the balance sheet to minimize the inherent risk while at the same time maximizing income.

Table of Contents

We manage our exposure to interest rates primarily by structuring our balance sheet in the ordinary course of business. We do not typically enter into derivative contracts for the purpose of managing interest rate risk, but we may do so in the future. Based upon the nature of our operations, we are not subject to foreign exchange or commodity price risk. We do not own any trading assets.

Net Interest Income Simulation. We use an interest rate risk simulation model to test the interest rate sensitivity of net interest income and the balance sheet. Instantaneous parallel rate shift scenarios are modeled and utilized to evaluate risk and establish exposure limits for acceptable changes in net interest margin. These scenarios, known as rate shocks, simulate an instantaneous change in interest rates and use various assumptions, including, but not limited to, prepayments on loans and securities, deposit decay rates, pricing decisions on loans and deposits, reinvestment and replacement of asset and liability cash flows.

Table of Contents

The following table presents the estimated changes in our net interest income, calculated on a bank-only basis, which would result from changes in market interest rates over a twelve month period as of March 31, 2026.


At March 31, 2026

Change in Interest Rates	Net Interest Income Change		Year 1 Change

—	$	—		—	%
-100	$	(4,792)		(4.23)	%
-200	$	(9,555)		(8.44)	%

This analysis assumes an instantaneous and parallel rate shock across the entire yield curve for the scenarios indicated.

Economic Value of Equity Simulation. We also analyze our sensitivity to changes in interest rates through an economic value of equity ("EVE") model. EVE represents the present value of the expected cash flows from our assets less the present value of the expected cash flows arising from our liabilities adjusted for the value of off-balance sheet contracts. EVE attempts to quantify our economic value using a discounted cash flow methodology. We estimate what our EVE would be as of a specific date. We then calculate what EVE would be as of the same date throughout a series of interest rate scenarios representing immediate and permanent, parallel shifts in the yield curve. We currently calculate EVE under the assumptions that interest rates increase 100, 200, and 300 basis points from current market rates, and under the assumption that interest rates decrease 100, 200, and 300 basis points from current market rates.

The following table presents the estimated changes in our EVE, calculated on a bank-only basis, that would result from changes in market interest rates as of March 31, 2026.

Note: This analysis assumes an instantaneous and parallel rate shock across the entire yield curve for the scenarios indicated.

Many assumptions are used to calculate the impact of interest rate fluctuations. Actual results may be significantly different than our projections due to several factors, including the timing and frequency of rate changes, market conditions and the shape of the yield curve. The computations of interest rate risk shown above do not include actions that our management may undertake to manage the risks in response to anticipated changes in interest rates, and actual results may also differ due to any actions taken in response to the changing rates.

Credit Risk

The Company manages credit risk consistent with state and federal laws governing the making of loans through written policies and procedures; loan review to identify loan problems at the earliest possible time; collection procedures (including subsequent to a loan being charged off); an adequate allowance for credit losses; and continuing education and training to ensure lending expertise. Diversification by loan product is maintained through offering commercial loans, 1-4 family mortgages, and a full range of consumer loans.

The Company monitors its loan portfolio prudently. The Director’s Loan Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors is designated to receive required loan reports, oversee loan policy, and approve loans above authorized individual and Management Loan Committee lending limits. The Management Loan Committee, consisting of the President and Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Credit Officer, Chief Risk Officer, Chief Loan Officer, EVP-Strategic Lending, and the SVP-Commercial Lending, reviews certain loan transactions and implements the Board-approved loan policy.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

An Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. As of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management was required to apply judgment in evaluating its controls and procedures. Based on their evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2026 the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)) are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations are operating in an effective manner.

Internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
