The Company may modify the contractual terms of a loan to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty as a part of ongoing loss mitigation strategies. These modifications may result in an interest rate reduction, term extension, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, or a combination thereof. The Company typically does not offer principal forgiveness.  An assessment of whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty is made on the date of modification.  The effect of most modifications made for borrowers experiencing financial difficulty is already included in the allowance for credit losses on loans because of the measurement methodologies used to estimate the allowance.

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, there was one modification for $1.5 million to a borrower experiencing financial difficulty. During both the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, there were no modifications of loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. The loan modified during the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 was a term extension, which extended the maturity date by approximately nine months.

A summary of previously modified loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty by type of concession and type of loan, as of the dates indicated, is set forth below:

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, the Company recorded no charge-offs for modified loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.

At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, individually evaluated modified loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty had a specific allowance of $594,000 and none, respectively. At both dates, none of the modified loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty were performing in accordance with their modified terms. All accruing modified loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, if any, are included in the loans individually evaluated in the calculation of the allowance for credit losses.

Risk Rating System

The Company evaluates and assigns a risk grade to each loan based on criteria designed to assess the credit quality of the loan. Each loan is assigned a risk grade at origination and continually reviewed until the debt is repaid. Any material adverse or beneficial trends will trigger a review of the assigned risk grade. Loans with low to average credit risk are assigned a lower risk grade than those with higher credit risk as determined by the individual loan characteristics.

The Company’s Pass loans include loans with acceptable business or individual credit risk where the borrower’s operations, cash flow, collateral or financial condition support repayment in accordance with the contractual terms and indicate low to average levels of risk.

Loans assigned higher risk grades are loans that generally exhibit the following characteristics:

Special Mention loans have potential weaknesses that deserve close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in a deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or in the Company’s credit position at some future date. Special Mention loans are not adversely classified and do not expose the Company to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification. Special Mention is a temporary rating, pending the occurrence of an event that would cause the risk rating either to improve or to be downgraded.

Loans in this category would be characterized by any of the following situations:

Credit that is currently protected but exhibits potential weakness;
Credit that is difficult to administer because of deficiencies in loan documentation, collateral control, loan agreements, or other deviations from established lending practices; or
Adverse financial or operating trends.

Substandard loans are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged. Loans classified substandard must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. Substandard loans are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. A loan may be classified as Substandard even though a specific loss has not yet been identified. A loan can be fully and adequately secured and still be considered Substandard.

Some characteristics of Substandard loans are:

Inability to service debt from ordinary and recurring cash flow;
Chronic delinquency;
Reliance upon alternative sources of repayment;
Term loans that are granted on liberal terms because the borrower cannot service normal payments for that type of debt;
Repayment is dependent upon the liquidation of collateral;
Inability to perform as agreed, but adequately protected by collateral;
Necessity to renegotiate payments to a non-standard level to ensure performance; and
The borrower is in bankruptcy, or for any other reason, future repayment is dependent on court action.

Doubtful loans possess all the weaknesses inherent in loans classified as Substandard with the added characteristic that collection or liquidation in full, based on currently existing facts, conditions, and values, is highly questionable and improbable. Doubtful loans have a high probability of loss, yet certain specific and identifiable factors may strengthen the credit and improve the prospects for repayment.

Losses are recognized as charges to the allowance when the loan or portion of the loan is considered uncollectible or at the time of foreclosure. Recoveries on loans previously charged off are credited to the allowance for credit losses.

Revolving loans that are converted to term loans are treated as new originations for purposes of the tables below but continue to be presented based on the year of the original revolving loan’s initial origination. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, and the year ended December 31, 2025, $3.9 million and none, respectively, of the Company’s revolving loans were converted to term loans.

The following tables present the internally assigned risk grade by class of loans at the dates indicated:

Nonaccrual loans totaled $9.1 million and $13.4 million at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Nonaccrual loans guaranteed by a government agency, which reduces the Company’s credit exposure, were $862,000 at June 30, 2026 compared to $1.7 million at December 31, 2025. At June 30, 2026, nonaccrual loans included $1.4 million of loans 30-89 days past due and $4.7 million of loans less than 30 days past due. At December 31, 2025, nonaccrual loans included $562,000 of loans 30-89 days past due and $9.4 million of loans less than 30 days past due. The decrease in nonaccrual loans was primarily due to the payoff of six nonaccrual loans totaling $2.3 million and the sale of two nonaccrual loans totaling $7.7 million, partially offset by three new nonaccrual commercial real estate loans totaling $6.4 million.

At June 30, 2026, the $1.4 million of nonaccrual loans 30-89 days past due were comprised of one loan and the $4.7 million of loans less than 30 days past due were comprised of 13 loans. All of these loans were placed on nonaccrual due to concerns over the financial condition of the borrowers.

At June 30, 2026, there were two loans that were 90 days or more past due and still accruing, with a balance of $677,000 compared to no loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing at December 31, 2025.

Interest foregone on nonaccrual loans was approximately $223,000 and $423,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $370,000 and $639,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025. Interest income recognized on nonaccrual loans was approximately $338,000 and $478,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $31,000 and $66,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025.
