Accrued interest receivable on loans totaled $7.6 million and $7.4 million at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Accrued interest receivable on loans is included in accrued interest receivable on the consolidated statements of condition, and is excluded from the estimate of credit losses.

Net deferred loan costs totaled $12.0 million and $11.7 million at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and are included in net loans receivable.

The allowance for credit losses on loans estimate uses a four quarter reasonable and supportable forecast period based on economic forecast from the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) of the Federal Reserve's projections of civilian unemployment and year-over-year U.S. gross domestic product (“GDP”) growth. The forecast will revert to long-term economic conditions over a four quarter reversion period on a straight-line basis. A qualitative factor framework has been developed to adjust the quantitative loss rates for asset-specific risk characteristics or current conditions at the reporting date.

Interest income on nonaccrual loans is recognized using the cost recovery method. Interest income on impaired loans that were on nonaccrual status and cash-basis interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 was immaterial.

The Company may occasionally make modifications to loans where the borrower is considered to be experiencing financial difficulty. Substantially all of these modifications include one or a combination of the following: extension of the maturity date at a stated rate of interest lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk; temporary reduction in the interest rate; change in scheduled payment amount including interest only; or extensions of additional credit for payment of delinquent real estate taxes or other costs.

There were no modifications to loans where the borrower is considered to be experiencing financial difficulty for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

The Company closely monitors the performance of the loans that are modified. The loans that were modified during the prior twelve months preceding March 31, 2026 were all performing within their modified terms with no payment defaults.

At March 31, 2026, loans modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty were on non-accrual status. Non-accrual loans that are modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty remain on non-accrual status until the borrower has demonstrated performance under the modified terms.

The following tables present the recorded investment in nonaccrual and loans past due over 90 days still on accrual by class of loans (dollars in thousands):

Nonaccrual loans and loans past due 90 days still on accrual include both smaller balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment and individually evaluated loans.

A loan is considered collateral-dependent when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment of the loan is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral.

The Company categorizes commercial 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 commercial loans individually by classifying the loans as to credit risk. 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 of 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.

Commercial loans not meeting the criteria above are considered to be pass rated loans.

The Company grades residential mortgages, home equity loans and lines of credit and consumer loans as either non-performing or performing.

Non-performing – Loans that are over 90 days past due and still accruing interest or on nonaccrual.

Performing – Loans not meeting any of the above criteria are considered to be performing loans.

The following table presents loans summarized by segment and class, and the risk category (dollars in thousands):
