On April 1, 2026, the Company completed the acquisition of MCBI. Including the effects of the known purchase accounting adjustments, as of the acquisition date, MCBI had approximately $1.47 billion in loans. This balance consisted of approximately $46.3 million in PCD loans and $1.42 billion in PSL loans.
During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company did not sell guaranteed portions of SBA loans. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company sold $1.2 million of the guaranteed portions of SBA loans, which resulted in a gain of approximately $80,000. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company did not sell any guaranteed portions of SBA loans. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company sold $4.0 million guaranteed portions of certain SBA loans, which resulted in a gain of approximately $288,000.
Mortgage loans held for sale of approximately $219.8 million and $204.0 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, are included in residential 1-4 family loans. Mortgage loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, determined using an aggregate basis. Gains and losses resulting from sales of mortgage loans are recognized when the respective loans are sold to investors. Gains and losses are determined by the difference between the selling price and the carrying amount of the loans sold, net of discounts collected or paid. The Company obtains forward commitments to sell mortgage loans to reduce market risk on mortgage loans in the process of origination and mortgage loans held for sale. The forward commitments acquired by the Company for mortgage loans in process of origination are considered mandatory forward commitments. Because these commitments are structured on a mandatory basis, the Company is required to substitute another loan or to buy back the commitment if the original loan does not fund. The Company regularly sells mortgages into the capital markets to mitigate the effects of interest rate volatility during the period from the time an interest rate lock commitment ("IRLC") is issued until the IRLC funds creating a mortgage loan held for sale and its subsequent sale into the secondary/capital markets. Loan sales are typically executed on a mandatory basis. Under a mandatory commitment, the Company agrees to deliver a specified dollar amount with predetermined terms by a certain date. Generally, the commitment is not loan specific, and any combination of loans can be delivered into the outstanding commitment provided the terms fall within the parameters of the commitment. Upon failure to deliver, the Company is subject to fees based on market movement. These commitments and IRLCs are derivative instruments and their fair values at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were not material.
The Company held approximately $95.8 million and $52.2 million in PCD loans, as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. As of June 30, 2026, $50.1 million and $45.7 million resulted from the acquisitions of Happy Bancshares, Inc. in 2022 and Mountain Commerce Bancorp, Inc. in 2026, respectively.
