COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND OFF BALANCE SHEET RISK COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND OFF BALANCE SHEET RISK
Credit Commitments
The Company is party to various credit related financial instruments with off balance sheet risk. The Company, in the normal course of business, issues such financial instruments in order to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amounts recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition.
The following financial instruments, which represent credit risk, were outstanding as of the related periods:
June 30, 2026December 31, 2025
(In thousands)
Commitments to extend credit$549,770 $454,287 
Standby letters of credit29,298 29,585 
Total$579,068 $483,872 
Included in the above table are extensions of credit to related parties and affiliates. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had $70.0 million of lines of credit and $0.3 million of standby letters of credit to related parties and affiliates. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $70.0 million of lines of credit and $0.3 million of standby letters of credit to related parties and affiliates.

Commitments to extend credit are contracts to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. These commitments have fixed expiration dates and other termination clauses and generally require the payment of nonrefundable fees. Since a portion of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the contractual principal amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the contractual amount of these instruments. These instruments represent ultimate exposure to credit risk only to the extent they are subsequently drawn upon by customers.
Standby letters of credit are conditional lending commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the financial performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing standby letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. The balance sheet carrying value of standby letters of credit approximates any nonrefundable fees received but not yet recorded as income. The Company considers this carrying value, which is not material, to approximate the estimated fair value of these financial instruments.
The Company maintains a reserve for the credit risk inherent in off balance sheet credit commitments. This allowance, which is included in other liabilities, amounted to approximately $2.9 million as of June 30, 2026, compared to an allowance of $2.8 million as of December 31, 2025. The provision for credit losses related to off balance sheet credit commitments was $0.4 million and $0.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, and the provision for credit losses related to off balance sheet credit commitments was $0.1 million and $0.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.
Investment Obligations

The Company is a party to agreements with Pace Funding Group LLC and Allectrify PBC for the purchase of PACE assessment securities, with commitments extending through December 2026 and June 2028, respectively. As of June 30, 2026, the estimated remaining commitments to Pace Funding Group LLC and Allectrify PBC under these agreements were $77.2 million and $79.5 million, respectively. The PACE assessments have equal-lien priority with property taxes and generally rank senior to first lien mortgages. These investments are currently held in the Company's available for sale and held-to-maturity investment portfolios. The Company evaluates these obligations for credit risk and the recorded reserve is recorded in other liabilities.
During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company funded $2.4 million to Greenskies Clean Energy LLC as a solar tax equity investment. As part of this investment agreement, the Company committed to additional fundings of $5.6 million which is recognized as a liability on the balance sheet as of June 30, 2026, given this future event is unconditional and legally binding.
Other Commitments and Contingencies
In the ordinary course of business, there are various legal proceedings pending against the Company. Based on the opinion of counsel, management believes that the aggregate liabilities, if any, arising from such actions would not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or results of operations of the Company.
