NOTE 7. Leases

Lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments and are presented at each reporting date as the net present value of the remaining contractual cash flows. Cash flows are discounted at the Company’s incremental borrowing rate in effect at the commencement date of the lease. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and are calculated as the sum of the lease liability and if applicable, prepaid rent, initial direct costs and any incentives received from the lessor. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are included in Other Assets and Other Liabilities, respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the second quarter of 2026, the Company entered into a long-term lease with the intention of moving the Frederick, Maryland loan production office to a new location in Rockville, Maryland. The new lease replaces an expiring lease and resulted in the initial recognition of a right-of-use asset and lease liability of $204 thousand.

The Company’s five long-term lease agreements are classified as operating leases. These leases offer the option to extend the lease term and the Company has included such extensions in its calculation of the lease liability to the extent the options are reasonably certain of being exercised. The lease agreements do not provide for residual value guarantee and have no restrictions or covenants that would impact dividends or require incurring additional financial obligations.
