NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a description of the Company’s business and significant accounting and reporting policies:

Nature of Business:

Northeast Community Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) is a Maryland corporation that was incorporated in May 2021 to be the successor to NorthEast Community Bancorp, Inc., a federally chartered corporation (the “Mid-Tier Holding Company”), upon completion of the second-step conversion of NorthEast Community Bank (the “Bank”) from the two-tier mutual holding company structure to the stock holding company structure. NorthEast Community Bancorp, MHC was the former mutual holding company for the Mid-Tier Holding Company prior to the completion of the second-step conversion. In conjunction with the second-step conversion, each of NorthEast Community Bancorp, MHC and the Mid-Tier Holding Company merged out of existence and now cease to exist.

The Bank is a New York State-chartered savings bank and the Company’s primary activity is the ownership and operation of the Bank.

The Bank is headquartered in White Plains, New York. The Bank was founded in 1934 and is a community oriented financial institution dedicated to serving the financial services needs of individuals and businesses within its market area. The Bank currently conducts business through its eleven branch offices located in the Bronx, New York, Orange, Rockland, and Sullivan Counties in New York and Essex, Middlesex and Norfolk Counties in Massachusetts and three loan production offices located in White Plains, New York, New City, New York, and Danvers, Massachusetts.

The Bank’s principal business consists of originating primarily construction loans and, to a lesser extent, commercial and industrial loans and multifamily and mixed-use residential real estate loans and non-residential real estate loans. The Bank offers a variety of retail deposit products to the general public in the areas surrounding its main office and its branch offices, with interest rates that are competitive with those of similar products offered by other financial institutions operating in its market area. The Bank also utilizes borrowings, brokered deposits, military deposits, and listing deposit services as sources of funds. The Bank’s revenues are derived primarily from interest on loans and, to a lesser extent, interest on investment securities and mortgage-backed securities. The Bank also generates revenues from other income including deposit fees and service charges.

New England Commercial Properties LLC (“NECP”), a New York limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank, was formed in October 2007 to facilitate the purchase or lease of real property by the Bank. NECP currently does not own any property.

NECB Financial Services Group, LLC (“NECB Financial”), a New York limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank, was formed in the third quarter of 2012 to sell life insurance and fixed rate annuities. NECB Financial is licensed in New York State. This subsidiary is currently inactive.

72 West Eckerson LLC (“72 West Eckerson”), a New York limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank, was formed in April 2015 to facilitate the purchase or lease of real property by the Bank and currently owns the Bank branch locations in Spring Valley, New York and Monroe, New York.

Table of Contents

166 Route 59 Realty LLC (“166 Route 59 Realty”), a New York limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank, was formed in April 2021 to facilitate the purchase or lease of real property by the Bank and currently owns the property for the Bank branch located in Airmont, New York.

3 Winterton Realty LLC, a New York limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank, was formed in October 2021 to facilitate the purchase or lease of real property by the Bank and currently owns the property for the Bank branch located in Bloomingburg, New York.

NECB Real Estate LLC (“NECB Real Estate”), a New York limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Bank, was formed in October 2024 to facilitate the purchase or lease of real property by the Bank. NECB Real Estate owned one foreclosed property located in the Bronx, New York prior to the property’s disposition in June 2025.

Principal of Consolidations:

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, the Bank, NECP, NECB Financial, 72 West Eckerson, 166 Route 59 Realty, 3 Winterton Realty LLC, and NECB Real Estate (collectively the “Company”) and have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). All significant inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The accounting and reporting policies of the Company and its subsidiaries conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited consolidated interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

In the opinion of the Company, all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) that are necessary for a fair presentation of the operating results for the interim periods have been included. The results of operations for periods of less than a year are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year or any other period.

Use of Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Estimates that are particularly susceptible to change in the near term are used in connection with the determination of the allowance for credit losses.

Loan Concentration Risk:

The Company’s lending activity is concentrated in construction loans secured primarily by affordable housing apartment buildings located throughout all five submarkets in the Bronx, and by construction loans secured by condominium buildings and single-family developments in Rockland, Orange, and Sullivan Counties in high demand, high absorption areas.

The Company’s lending exposures include outstanding loan balances, loans-in-process, and unfunded commitments. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had lending exposures of $1.1 billion and $827.8 million in the Bronx, $546.1 million and $533.3 million in Orange County, $387.8 million and $364.2 million in Rockland County, and $99.3 million and $150.3 million in Sullivan County, respectively. The increase in total lending exposure reflects continued growth in construction lending activity. Compared to December 31, 2025, the Company’s lending exposure as of September 30, 2026 increased by $300.0 million, or 36.2%, in the Bronx, by $12.8 million, or 2.4%, in Orange County, and by $23.6 million, or 6.5%, in Rockland County.

Table of Contents

At September 30, 2026, the Company had a total of $106.7 million, or 6.9%, of construction loans located in Rockland, Orange, and Sullivan Counties related to office space or other commercial-use properties within these high demand, high absorption areas.

Note 2 — Regulatory Capital

The Company and the Bank are subject to regulatory capital requirements promulgated by the federal banking agencies. The Federal Reserve establishes capital requirements, including well capitalized standards, for the consolidated bank holding company, and the FDIC has similar requirements for the Company’s subsidiary bank. However, the Federal Reserve has provided a “small bank holding company” exception to its consolidated capital requirements for holding companies, and legislation and the related issuance of regulations by the Federal Reserve Board have established the current threshold for the exception at $3.0 billion in total consolidated assets. As a result, the Company will not be subject to the consolidated holding company capital requirement until such time as its consolidated assets exceed $3.0 billion. The Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

The following table presents information about the Bank’s capital levels at the dates presented:


					Regulatory Capital Requirements
					Minimum Capital						For Classification as
	Actual				Adequacy(1)						Well-Capitalized
	Amount		Ratio		Amount			Ratio			Amount			Ratio

	(Dollars in Thousands)

(1)	Ratios do not include the capital conservation buffer.

Based on the most recent notification by the FDIC, the Bank was categorized as “well capitalized” under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. There have been no conditions or events that have occurred since notification that management believes have changed the Bank’s category.

Note 3 — Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period less any unvested restricted shares. Unallocated common shares held by the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”) are not included in the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for purposes of calculating basic net income per common share until they are committed to be released. Diluted earnings per share reflects additional common shares that would have been outstanding if dilutive potential common shares had been issued, as well as any adjustment to income that would result from the assumed issuance. Potential common shares that may be issued by the Company relate to outstanding stock options and are determined using the treasury stock method.

Note 4 — Equity Securities

The following table is the schedule of equity securities at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Our equity securities portfolio consists of our investment in a market-rate bond mutual fund that invests in high-quality fixed income bonds, mainly government agency securities whose proceeds are designed to positively impact community development throughout the United States. The mutual fund focuses exclusively on providing affordable housing for low- and moderate-income borrowers and renters within our delineated lending areas, including those in majority minority census tracts. The high-quality fixed income bonds consist of 90% agency mortgage-backed securities and 10% state and municipal bonds. All agency mortgage-backed securities are issued by U.S. government entities and agencies. These securities are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government, are highly rated by major rating agencies and have a long history of no credit losses.

At September 30, 2026, eleven mortgage-backed securities had unrealized losses due to interest rate volatility. Management concluded that the unrealized losses reflected above were temporary in nature since the unrealized losses were related primarily to market interest rate volatility, and were not related to the underlying credit quality of the issuers of the securities. Additionally, the Company has the ability and intent to hold the securities for the time necessary to recover the amortized cost. At December 31, 2025, there were eleven mortgage-backed securities that had unrealized losses due to interest rate volatility.

Credit Quality Indicators

The held to maturity securities portfolio consists of agency mortgage-backed securities and municipal bonds. All agency mortgage-backed securities are issued by U.S. government entities and agencies. These securities are either explicitly or implicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government, are highly rated by major rating agencies and have a long history of no credit losses. At September 30, 2026, the nine municipal bonds in the portfolio carried no lower than A ratings from the rating agencies and had no realized losses since they were issued. At December 31, 2025, the ten municipal bonds in the portfolio carried no lower than A ratings from the rating agencies and had no realized losses since they were issued. The Company regularly monitors the municipal bonds sector of the market and reviews collectability including such factors as the financial condition of the issuers as well as credit ratings in effect as of the reporting period.

Loans serviced for the benefit of others, which are not included in the amounts shown above, totaled approximately $21.5 million and $53.3 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The value of mortgage servicing rights was not material at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

The allowance for credit losses on loans represents management’s estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of the statement of financial condition date and is recorded as a reduction to loans. The allowance for credit losses is increased by the provision for credit losses, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for credit losses, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. All, or part, of the principal balance of loans receivable are charged off to the allowance as soon as it is determined that the repayment of all, or part, of the principal balance is highly unlikely.

The allowance for credit losses on loans is maintained at a level considered adequate to provide for losses that can be reasonably anticipated. Management performs a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of the allowance. The allowance is based on the relevant available information from internal and external sources related to past events and current conditions, as well as the incorporation of reasonable and supportable forecasts. This evaluation is inherently subjective as it requires material estimates that may be susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.

During the three months ended September 30, 2026, the provision expense recorded for construction loans was primarily attributed to increased loan balances. The reversal of the provision recorded for residential real estate loans was primarily attributed to decreased loan balances and reduced credit risks in loss given default projection. The reversal of the provision recorded for commercial and industrial loans was primarily attributed to decreased loan balances. The provision expense recorded for consumer loans was primarily attributed to a net charge off $29,000 in checking account overdrafts during the three months ended September 30, 2026.

Table of Contents

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the reversal of provision recorded for residential real estate loans was primarily attributed to newly originated high-quality muti-family loans coupled with decreased loss given default in the macroeconomic projection. The provision expense recorded for non-residential real estate loans and construction loans was primarily attributed to increased loan balances. The reversal of provision recorded for consumer loans was primarily attributed to a net recovery of $24,000 and decreased balance in checking account overdrafts during the three months ended September 30, 2025.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the reversal of the provision recorded for residential real estate loans was primarily attributed to decreased loan balances and reduced credit risks in loss given default projection. The provision expense recorded for construction loans was primarily attributed to increased loan balances. The provision expense recorded for commercial and industrial loans was primarily attributed to a $500,000 loan charge off, offset by decreased loan balances. The provision expense recorded for consumer loans was primarily attributed to a $76,000 net charge off in checking account overdrafts during the nine months ended September 30, 2026.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the reversal of provision recorded for residential real estate loans was primarily attributed to newly originated high-quality muti-family loans. The provision expense recorded for commercial and industrial loans was attributed to increased loan balances and slightly increased credit risk. The reversal

of provision recorded for non-residential real estate loans was primarily attributed to a $350,000 recovery from a loan charged off in 2021. The provision expense recorded for consumer loans was primarily attributed to a $494,000 net charge off in checking account overdrafts during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

At September 30, 2026, the Company had three individually evaluated loans comprised of one construction loan totaling $13.9 million and two commercial and industrial loans totaling $3.5 million. The three loans are secured by a seven story multi-family building with 63 apartment units and one ground floor commercial space occupied by a supermarket located in the Bronx, New York. The three loans are currently in foreclosure and placed on non-accrual status with no related allowance recorded at September 30, 2026. There were no non-accrual loans at December 31, 2025. There was no interest income recognized from non-accrual loans for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company categorizes 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 loans individually to classify the loans as to credit risk. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings:

Pass – Loans that are well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor (or guarantors, if any) or by the fair value, less cost to acquire and sell, of any underlying collateral in a timely manner.

Special Mention – Loans which do not currently expose the Company to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant an adverse classification but have some credit deficiencies or other potential weaknesses.

Substandard – Loans which are inadequately protected by the paying capacity and net worth of the obligor or the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard assets include those characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful – Loans which have all of the weaknesses inherent in loans classified as Substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values.

Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty:

Occasionally, the Company modifies loans to borrowers in financial distress by providing a term extension; an other-than-insignificant payment delay; or an interest rate reduction.

In some cases, the Company provides multiple types of concessions on a loan. Typically, one type of concession, such as a term extension, is granted initially. If the borrower continues to experience financial difficulty, another concession, such as an interest rate reduction, may be granted.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, one construction loan totaling $13.9 million and two commercial and industrial loans totaling $3.5 million were modified to one borrower experiencing financial difficulty. There were no loans modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the three months ended September 30, 2026 and during the year ended December 31, 2025, respectively.

The following table describes the financial effect of the modification made to the borrower experiencing financial difficulty:


	Interest Rate Reduction
	Weighted-average contractual interest rate
	From	To
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026
Commercial and industrial	8.75%		5.75%
Construction	8.75%		5.75%

The performance of the loans made to the borrower experiencing financial difficulty in which modifications were made is closely monitored to determine the effectiveness of modification efforts. At September 30, 2026, the three loans were delinquent, placed on non-accrual status and currently in foreclosure.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Off-Balance Sheet Commitments:

The following table presents the activity in the allowance for credit losses related to off-balance sheet commitments, that is included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated statement of financial condition, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the provision expense recorded was primarily due to increased balances in unfunded loan commitments.

Note 7 — Borrowings

Our borrowings are primarily from the Discount Window at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“FRBNY”). On August 30, 2023, the FRBNY approved the Company’s eligibility to pledge loans under the Borrower-in-Custody program of the FRBNY thereby allowing the Company to borrow from the Discount Window at the FRBNY. At September 30, 2026, there were no borrowings from the FRBNY. At December 31, 2025, borrowings from the FRBNY totaled $70.0 million, bearing an interest rate of 3.75%.

At September 30, 2026, the Company had the ability to borrow $1.0 billion from the FRBNY, and $8.0 million from Atlantic Community Bankers Bank (“ACBB”).

Note 8 — Benefits Plans

Outside Director Retirement Plan (“DRP”)

The DRP is an unfunded non-contributory defined benefit pension plan covering all non-employee directors meeting eligibility requirements as specified in the plan document. The following table sets forth information regarding the components of net pension periodic expense measured for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025:


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
	2026		2025		2026		2025

	(Dollars In Thousands)				(Dollars In Thousands)
Net periodic pension expense:

Interest cost		24		24		69		67
Amortization of actuarial gain		(6)		(5)		(21)		(20)
Total net periodic pension expense included in other non-interest expenses	$	44	$	45	$	130	$	120

Unrecognized net gain of $29,000 and $19,000 for the three months, and $79,000 and $28,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, were included in accumulated other comprehensive income along with the amortization in the table above.

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”)

The SERP is a non-contributory defined benefit plan that covers certain officers of the Company. Under the SERP, each of these individuals will be entitled to receive upon retirement an annual benefit paid in monthly installments equal to 50% of the executive’s average base salary in the three-year period preceding retirement. Each individual may also retire early and receive a reduced benefit upon the attainment of certain age and years of service combination. Additional terms related to death while employed, death after retirement, disability before retirement and termination of employment are fully described within the plan document. The benefit payment term is the greater of 15 years or the executive’s remaining life.

At September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the deferred compensation liability related to the SERP was $5.7 million and $5.3 million, respectively. Expenses of $143,000 and $146,000 for the three months, and $438,000 and $432,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, were recorded for this plan and are reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Income under Salaries and Employee Benefits.

Stock-Based Deferral Plan

In June 2021, the Company established a stock-based deferral plan for eligible key executives and members of the Board of Directors of the Company to elect to defer compensation received from the Company for their services and make deemed investments of that deferred compensation in shares of the Company’s common stock. At September 30, 2026, the Company did not have any obligations under the plan.

Table of Contents

401(k) Plan

The Company maintains a 401(k) plan for all eligible employees. Participants are permitted to contribute from 1% to 15% or 60% of their annual compensation up to the maximum permitted under the Internal Revenue Code. The Company provided no matching contributions during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan (“ESOP”)

In conjunction with the Mid-Tier Holding Company’s public stock offering in 2006, the Bank established an ESOP for all eligible employees (substantially all full-time employees). The ESOP borrowed $5,184,200 from the Mid-Tier Holding Company and used those funds to acquire 518,420 shares of Mid-Tier Holding Company common stock at $10.00 per share. The loan from the Mid-Tier Holding Company, which has been assumed by the Company, carries an interest rate of 8.25% and is repayable in twenty annual installments. This loan was paid off in full at December 31, 2025.

In conjunction with the Company’s second-step conversion offering, on July 12, 2021, the ESOP borrowed $7,827,260 from the Company and used those funds to acquire 782,726 shares of Company common stock at $10.00 per share. The loan from the Company carries an interest rate equal to 3.25% and is repayable in fifteen annual installments through 2035.

Each year, the Bank makes discretionary contributions to the ESOP equal to the principal and interest payment required on the loans from the Company. The ESOP may further pay down the principal balance of the loans by using dividends paid, if any, on the shares of Company common stock it owns. The first ESOP loan was paid off in full at December 31, 2025. The balance remaining on the second ESOP loan was $5,529,000 at both September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Shares purchased for the ESOP with the loan proceeds serve as collateral for the loan and are held in a suspense account for future allocation among ESOP participants. As the loan principal is repaid, shares will be released from the suspense account and become eligible for allocation, subject to the allocation provisions included in the ESOP governing document.

ESOP shares initially pledged as collateral were recorded as unearned ESOP shares in the stockholders’ equity section of the Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition. Thereafter, on a monthly basis over the terms of the ESOP loans, approximately 2,894 shares for the ESOP loan made in 2006 and approximately 4,348 shares for the ESOP loan made in 2021 are committed to be released, respectively. Compensation expense is recorded in an amount equal to the shares committed to be released multiplied by the average closing price of the Company’s stock during that month. ESOP expense totaled approximately $349,000 and $478,000 for the three months, and $980,000 and $1,489,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Dividends on unallocated shares, which totaled approximately $131,000 and $243,000 for the three months, and $365,000 and $486,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, are recorded as a reduction of the ESOP loan. Dividends on allocated shares, which totaled approximately $239,000 and $347,000 for the three months, and $669,000 and $694,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, are charged to retained earnings.

ESOP shares are summarized as follows:


		September 30,			December 31,
		2026			2025
Allocated shares			955,590			868,678
Shares committed to be released			39,141			86,912

Note 9 — Fair Value Disclosures

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. The Company’s marketable equity securities are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, the Company has to record at fair value other assets and liabilities on a non-recurring basis, such as securities held to maturity, individually evaluated loans and other real estate owned. U.S. GAAP has established a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation methods used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1:

Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2:

Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3:

Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported with little or no market activity).

The level of the asset or liability within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following table sets forth the Company’s assets that are carried at fair value on a recurring basis and the level that was used to determine their fair value at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:


		Quoted Prices in						Significant Other						Significant						Total Carried

There were no transfers between Level 1 and 2 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 or the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company did not have any liabilities that were carried at fair value on a recurring basis at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

The following tables present the qualitative information about non-recurring Level 3 fair value measurements of financial instruments at September 30, 2026:

The Company did not have any collateral dependent loans at December 31, 2025. The Company did not have any liabilities that were carried at fair value on a non-recurring basis at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

The methods and assumptions used to estimate fair value at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 are as follows:

Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments; however, there are inherent weaknesses in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in a sales transaction on the dates indicated. The estimated fair value amounts have been measured as of their respective period end-dates and have not been re-evaluated or updated for purposes of these financial statements subsequent to those respective dates. As such, the estimated fair values of these financial instruments subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different than the amounts reported at each period-end.

Fair values for marketable equity securities are determined by quoted market prices on nationally recognized and foreign securities exchanges (Level 1). Fair values for equity securities and securities held to maturity are determined utilizing Level 2 inputs. For these securities, the Company obtains fair value measurements from an independent pricing service. The fair value measurements consider observable data that may include dealer quotes, market spreads, cash flows, the U.S. Treasury yield curve, live trading levels, trade execution data, market consensus prepayments speeds, credit information and the security’s terms and conditions, among other things.

The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful.

Note 10 — Revenue Recognition

The majority of the Company’s revenues come from interest income and other sources, including loans and securities that are outside the scope of ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. The Company’s services that fall within the scope of ASC 606 are presented within noninterest income and are recognized as revenue as the Company satisfies its obligation to the customer. Services within the scope of ASC 606 include service charges on deposits, electronic banking fees and charges income, and investment advisory fees.

A contract asset balance occurs when an entity performs a service for a customer before the customer pays consideration (resulting in a contract receivable) or before payment is due (resulting in a contract asset). A contract liability balance is an entity’s obligation to transfer a service to a customer for which the entity has already received payment (or payment is due) from the customer. The Company’s noninterest revenue streams are largely based on transactional activity, or standard month-end revenue accruals such as referral fees based on month end reports. Consideration is often received immediately or shortly after the Company satisfies its performance obligation and revenue is recognized. The Company does not typically enter into long-term revenue contracts with customers, and therefore, does not experience significant contract balances. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company did not have any significant contract balances.

All of the Company’s revenue from contracts with customers within the scope of ASC 606 is recognized within noninterest income. The following table presents the Company’s sources of noninterest income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. Sources of revenue outside the scope of ASC 606 are noted as such:

Table of Contents

A description of the Company’s revenue streams accounted for under ASC 606 is as follows:

Service Charges on Deposit Accounts

The Company earns fees from deposit customers for transaction-based, account maintenance, and overdraft services. Transaction-based fees, which include services such as ATM use fees, stop payment charges, statement rendering, and ACH fees, are recognized at the time the transaction is executed at the point in the time the Company fulfills the customer’s request. Account maintenance fees, which relate primarily to monthly maintenance, are generally earned over the course of a month, representing the period over which the Company satisfies the performance obligation. Service charges on deposits are withdrawn from the customer’s account balance.

Electronic Banking Fee Income

The Company earns interchange fees from debit and credit card holder transactions conducted through various payment networks. Interchange fees from cardholder transactions are recognized daily, concurrently with the transaction processing services provided by an outsourced technology solution.

Note 11 — Stock Compensation Plans

At a special meeting of shareholders held on September 29, 2022, the Company’s shareholders approved the Company’s 2022 Equity Incentive Plan whereby 1,369,771 shares of the Company’s common stock were reserved from authorized but unissued shares for purposes of grants of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and performance units to selected employees and non-employee directors of the Company. On May 21, 2026, the shareholders of the Company approved the Company’s 2026 Equity Incentive Plan whereby 204,335 shares of the Company’s common stock were reserved and available for issuance under the Plan.

The product of the number of shares granted and the grant date market price of the Company’s common stock determine the fair value of restricted stock under the Company’s Equity Incentive Plans. Management recognizes compensation expense for the fair value of restricted stock on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were 204,335 and 19,335 aggregate shares available for future awards under the plans, respectively.

A summary of the Company’s restricted stock activity and related information for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 follows:

Note 12 — Business Segments

While the chief decisionmakers monitor the revenue streams of the various products and services, operations are managed, and financial performance is evaluated on a Company-wide basis. Operating segments are aggregated into one as operating results for all segments are similar. Accordingly, all of the financial service operations are considered by management to be aggregated in one reportable operating segment. Substantially most of the Company’s operations occur through the Bank and involve the delivery of loan and deposit products to customers.

The Company’s chief operating decision maker is the Executive Committee that includes the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer. The Executive Committee assesses performance of the Company on a consolidated basis and decides how to allocate resources based on net income that is also reported as net income on the Consolidated Statement of Income.

The Executive Committee uses net income, which is the measure of segment profit and loss, to evaluate income generated from segment assets (return on assets) and other measures, such as net interest margin, return on average assets, and return on common equity, in deciding how to reinvest profits, such as originating loans, investing in investment securities, or repurchasing shares of the Company’s common stock. Net income is used to monitor budget versus actual results. The Executive Committee also uses net income and other measures in comparing the Company to its peer banks. The comparison of the Company’s net income and other measures to its peer banks, along with the comparison of budgeted versus actual results, are used in assessing the Company’s performance and in establishing management compensation. Loans, investments, and deposits provide the revenues in the banking operations. Interest expense and payroll provide the significant expenses in the banking operations. All operations are domestic.

Note 13 — Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvement: Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative, which incorporates several SEC disclosure requirements into US GAAP and adds interim and annual disclosure requirements to a variety of topics in the Accounting Standards Codification, including those focusing on accounting changes, earnings per share, debt and repurchase agreements. For entities subject to the SEC disclosure requirements and those “required to file or furnish financial statements with or to the SEC in preparation for the sale of or for purposes of issuing securities that are not subject to contractual restrictions on transfer,” the US GAAP requirements will be effective when the removal of the related SEC rule is effective. Early adoption is not permitted for these entities. For all other entities, the effective date will be two years later, and early adoption is permitted. That is, financial statements issued after the effective date of each amendment are required to include on a prospective basis the related disclosure incorporated into US GAAP by this ASU. However, if the SEC does not act to remove its related requirements by September 30, 2027, any related FASB amendments will be removed from the Codification and will not be effective for any entities. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures. This ASU requires disclosure in the notes to financial statements of specified information about certain costs and expenses. Specific disclosures are required for (a) purchases of inventory, (b) employee compensation, (c) depreciation, (d) intangible asset amortization, and (e) depreciation, depletion, and amortization recognized as part of oil and gas producing activities. The amendments in this Update do not change or remove current expense disclosure requirements. However, the amendments affect where this information appears in the notes to financial statements because entities are required to include certain current disclosures in the same tabular format disclosure as the other disaggregation requirements in the amendments. The amendments in ASU 2024-03 apply only to public business entities and are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40), which revises the effective date of ASU 2024-03 (on disclosures about disaggregation of income statement expenses) “to clarify that all public business entities are required to adopt the guidance in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027.” Entities within the ASU’s scope are permitted to early adopt the ASU. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which modernizes the accounting for internal-use software that is developed using an incremental and iterative method (e.g., agile method). The guidance removes all references to project stages in ASC 350-40 and clarifies the threshold entities apply to begin capitalizing costs. The guidance specifies that the property, plant, and equipment disclosure requirements under ASC 360-10 apply to capitalized software costs accounted for under ASC 350-40, regardless of how those costs are presented in the financial statements. The guidance, which applies to all entities, is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Entities may apply the guidance using a prospective, retrospective, or modified transition approach. Early adoption is permitted. This Update is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s financial statements.

Critical Accounting Policies

We consider accounting policies involving significant judgements and assumptions by management that have, or could have, a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets or on income to be critical accounting policies. We consider these accounting policies to be our crucial accounting policies. The judgements and assumptions we use are based on historical experience and other factors, which we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ from these judgements and estimates under different conditions, resulting in a change that could have a material impact on the carrying values of our assets and liabilities and our results of operations. There have been no changes in the critical accounting policies since the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

Balance Sheet Analysis

General

Total assets increased $152.5 million, or 7.4%, to $2.2 billion at September 30, 2026, from $2.1 billion at December 31, 2025. The increase in assets was primarily due to an increase in net loans of $160.0 million, partially offset by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $8.5 million.

Cash and cash equivalents decreased $8.5 million, or 10.5%, to $72.6 million at September 30, 2026 from $81.2 million at December 31, 2025. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents partially funded the increase of $160.0 million in net loans.

Equity securities decreased $341,000, or 1.3%, to $26.2 million at September 30, 2026 from $26.6 million at December 31, 2025. The decrease in equity securities was attributable to market depreciation of $1.3 million due to market interest rate volatility during the nine months ended September 30, 2026, partially offset by the purchase of $1.0 million in equity securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2026.

Securities held-to-maturity increased $359,000, or 2.0%, to $18.7 million at September 30, 2026 from $18.3 million at December 31, 2025 due to the purchase of $2.0 million in municipal securities, partially offset by pay-downs of various investment securities and an increase of $9,000 to the allowance for credit losses for held-to-maturity securities.

Loans, net of the allowance for credit losses, increased $160.0 million, or 8.6%, to $2.0 billion at September 30, 2026 from $1.9 billion at December 31, 2025. The increase in loans consisted of an increase of $207.3 million in construction loans, partially offset by decreases of $37.0 million in commercial and industrial loans, $5.0 million in multi-family loans, $3.3 million in mixed-use loans, $1.6 million in non-residential loans, $104,000 in one-to-four family loans, and $15,000 in consumer loans.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we originated loans totaling $966.4 million, which include commitments and funded loans, consisting primarily of $914.8 million in construction loans, $26.3 million in commercial and industrial loans, $24.0 million in multi-family loans, $675,000 in mixed-use loans, and $500,000 in non-residential loans. The $914.8 million in construction loans had $393.5 million, or 43.0%, disbursed at loan closing, with the remaining funds to be disbursed over the terms of the construction loans. These disbursements were offset by normal pay-downs and principal reductions as construction projects were completed and either condominium units were sold to end buyers or multi-family rental buildings were refinanced by other financial institutions. The commercial and industrial loans had $19.1 million, or 72.7%, disbursed at loan closing as of September 30, 2026.

The allowance for credit losses related to loans was $4.7 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Although our total loan portfolio increased $160.0 million, or 8.6%, from December 31, 2025 to September 30, 2026, portfolios carrying higher allowance rates due to longer terms or higher credit risks have decreased. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, commercial and industrial loans decreased $37.0 million, or 24.6%, and residential, multi-family, mixed use and non-residential mortgage loans decreased $10.0 million, or 2.7%. These decreases were mostly offset by an increase in the construction loan portfolio, which carries a lower allowance rate, during the same period.

Table of Contents

The allowance for credit losses for off-balance sheet commitments increased $284,000, or 32.3%, to $1.2 million at September 30, 2026 from $879,000 at December 31, 2025 due primarily to an increase of $83.1 million, or 12.2%, in off-balance sheet commitments from December 31, 2025 to September 30, 2026.

The allowance for credit losses for held-to-maturity securities increased $9,000, or 7.1%, to $135,000 at September 30, 2026 from $126,000 at December 31, 2025 due to an increase in our municipal bond portfolio.

Premises and equipment decreased $339,000, or 1.3%, to $25.0 million at September 30, 2026 from $25.4 million at December 31, 2025 primarily due to the amortization of fixed assets. Property held for investment was $1.3 million at both September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Federal Home Loan Bank stock increased by $133,000, or 32.4%, to $543,000 at September 30, 2026 from $410,000 at December 31, 2025 primarily due to an increase in our mortgage-related assets.

Bank owned life insurance (“BOLI”) increased $557,000, or 2.1%, to $27.0 million at September 30, 2026 from $26.4 million at December 31, 2025 due to increases in the BOLI cash value.

Accrued interest receivable increased $626,000, or 5.1%, to $12.9 million at September 30, 2026 from $12.2 million at December 31, 2025 due to an increase in the loan portfolio.

Right of use assets — operating decreased $542,000, or 11.6%, to $4.1 million at September 30, 2026 from $4.7 million at December 31, 2025, primarily due to depreciation of the right of use assets.

Other assets increased $603,000, or 5.5%, to $11.6 million at September 30, 2026 from $11.0 million at December 31, 2025 due to an increase of $1.3 million in suspense accounts, partially offset by decreases of $592,000 in tax assets and $146,000 in prepaid expenses.

Total deposits increased $202.7 million, or 12.5%, to $1.8 billion at September 30, 2026 from $1.6 billion at December 31, 2025. The increase in deposits was primarily due to increases in certificates of deposit of $87.8 million, or 9.8%, NOW/money market accounts of $72.8 million, or 24.1%, and non-interest-bearing deposits of $53.7 million, or 19.8%, partially offset by a decrease in savings account balances of $11.6 million, or 8.2%.

The increase of $87.8 million in certificates of deposit consisted of increases of $201.8 million, or 54.5%, in brokered certificates of deposit, partially offset by decreases of $63.5 million, or 94.0%, in non-brokered listing services certificates of deposit and $50.5 million, or 11.3%, in retail certificates of deposit.

The increase in brokered certificates of deposit was due to management’s strategy to reduce short term borrowings due to the potential for further increases in interest rates. The decrease in non-brokered listing services certificates of deposit was due to management’s strategy to reduce the cost of funds. The decrease in retail certificates of deposit was due to a shift in deposits to our retail high yield money market accounts.

Advance payments by borrowers for taxes and insurance increased $523,000, or 22.2%, to $2.9 million at September 30, 2026 from $2.4 million at December 31, 2025 due primarily to accumulation of real estate tax payments from borrowers.

Borrowings decreased $70.0 million to no borrowings at September 30, 2026 from $70.0 million at December 31, 2025 whereby $190.0 million in borrowings as of June 30, 2026 were paid off primarily in August and September 2026 to implement management’s strategy to reduce interest rate risk with less reliance on short term borrowings in a potentially rising interest rate environment.

Lease liability – operating decreased $499,000, or 10.4%, to $4.3 million at September 30, 2026 from $4.8 million at December 31, 2025, primarily due to the amortization of the lease liability.

Table of Contents

Accounts payable and accrued expenses increased $858,000, or 5.0%, to $18.2 million at September 30, 2026 from $17.3 million at December 31, 2025 due primarily to increases in accounts payable of $674,000, deferred compensation of $424,000, the allowance for credit losses for off-balance sheet commitments of $284,000, and suspense account – loan closings of $44,000, partially offset by decreases in accrued interest expense of $504,000 and accrued expenses of $64,000.

Stockholders’ equity increased $19.0 million, or 5.4%, to $370.7 million at September 30, 2026, from $351.7 million at December 31, 2025. The increase in stockholders’ equity was due to net income of $30.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the amortization expense of $1.6 million relating to restricted stock and stock options granted under the Company’s 2022 Equity Incentive Plan, an increase of $589,000 in earned employee stock ownership plan shares coupled with a reduction of $391,000 in unearned employee stock ownership plan shares, $37,000 in stock options exercised, and $42,000 in other comprehensive income. These increases were offset by dividends declared of $9.3 million and stock repurchases and excise taxes of $4.8 million.

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2026 and 2025

Financial Highlights

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was $10.7 million compared to net income of $11.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease in net income of $1.2 million, or 10.1%, between periods was primarily due to a decrease of $1.2 million in non-interest income and an increase of $402,000 in non-interest expense, partially offset by an increase of $154,000 in net interest income and a decrease of $254,000 in income tax expense.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $26.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to $25.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The increase in net interest income of $154,000, or 0.6%, was primarily due to a decrease in interest expense that exceeded a decrease in interest income caused by a decrease in the cost of funds for interest-bearing liabilities that exceeded a decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets.

Total interest and dividend income decreased $608,000, or 1.5%, to $38.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $39.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease in interest and dividend income was due to a decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets by 61 basis points from 8.15% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 to 7.54% for the three months ended September 30, 2026, partially offset by an increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets of $123.7 million, or 6.4%, to $2.1 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $1.9 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

The decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets was due to a 75 basis points decrease in the Federal Funds rate from September 2025 to December 2025, partially offset by a 25 basis points increase in the Federal Funds rate in September 2026. These interest rate movements resulted in a decrease in the yield on our construction loans and commercial and industrial loans because the interest rates on these loans are indexed to the Prime Rate and change whenever the Prime Rate changes.

Interest expense decreased $762,000, or 5.7%, to $12.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $13.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease in interest expense was due to a decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities by 39 basis points from 3.91% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 to 3.52% for the three months ended September 30, 2026. The decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities was offset by an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities of $62.6 million, or 4.6%, to $1.4 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $1.4 billion for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

Our net interest margin decreased 29 basis points, or 5.5%, to 5.09% for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to 5.38% for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease in the net interest margin was due to a 75 basis points decrease in the Federal Funds rate from September 2025 to December 2025, partially offset by a 25 basis points increase in the Federal Funds rate in September 2026. These interest rate movements resulted in a decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets and a smaller decrease in the cost of funds on interest-bearing liabilities.

Table of Contents

Credit Loss Expense

The Company recorded no credit loss expense for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025.

With respect to the allowance for credit losses for loans, we charged off $37,000 during the quarter ended September 30, 2026, as compared to charge-offs of $75,000 during the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The charge-offs during the quarters ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 were against various unpaid overdrafts in our demand deposit accounts.

We recorded recoveries of $8,000 during the quarter ended September 30, 2026 compared to recoveries of $99,000 during the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The recoveries during the quarters ended September 30, 2026 and September 30, 2025 comprised of recoveries from previously charged-off unpaid overdraft on demand deposit accounts.

Non-Interest Income

The Company recorded non-interest loss of $185,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 compared to non-interest income of $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease of $1.2 million, or 118.2%, in total non-interest income was primarily due to a decrease of $1.3 million in unrealized gain/(loss) on equity securities and a loss of $10,000 on the disposition of fixed assets. These were partially offset by increases of $51,000 in other loan fees and service charges, $16,000 in BOLI income, and $13,000 in miscellaneous other non-interest income.

The decrease in unrealized gain/(loss) on equity securities was due to an unrealized loss of $1.1 million on equity securities during the quarter ended September 30, 2026 compared to an unrealized gain of $170,000 on equity securities during the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The unrealized loss of $1.1 million and unrealized gain of $170,000 on equity securities during the quarters ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, were due to market interest rate volatility during both periods.

The increase of $51,000 in other loan fees and service charges was due to increases of $62,000 in ATM/debit card/ACH fees and $3,000 in deposit account fees, partially offset by a decrease of $14,000 in loan service charges and fees. The increase of $16,000 in BOLI income was due to an increase in the yield on BOLI assets. The increase of $13,000 in miscellaneous other non-interest income was due to increases in miscellaneous operating income during the quarter.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense increased $402,000, or 3.9%, to $10.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $10.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The increase resulted primarily from increases of $757,000 in other operating expenses, $43,000 in salaries and employee benefits, $26,000 in occupancy expense, and $10,000 in equipment expense, partially offset by decreases of $238,000 in real estate owned expense, $103,000 in outside data processing expense, and $93,000 in advertising expense.

Other non-interest operating expense increased $757,000, or 27.0%, to $3.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $2.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 due mainly to increases of $844,000 in miscellaneous other non-interest expense, $64,000 in consulting fees, $60,000 in service contracts expense, $52,000 in personnel recruitment expense, $8,000 in directors compensation, $4,000 in directors, officers and employees expense, $4,000 in office supplies, and $3,000 in insurance expense. These increases were partially offset by decreases of $179,000 in regulatory fees, $46,000 in legal fees, $21,000 in telephone expense, $20,000 in audit and accounting expense, and $16,000 in dues and subscription expense.

The increase of $844,000 in miscellaneous other non-interest expense was mainly due to increases of $729,000 in miscellaneous charge-offs, $66,000 in public company expense, $48,000 in miscellaneous other non-interest expense, and $2,000 in check and correspondent bank charges, partially offset by a decrease of $1,000 in postage expense. The increase of $729,000 in miscellaneous charge-offs was due to an increase in customer fraud involving checks and debit cards.

Salaries and employee benefits increased $43,000, or 0.8%, to $5.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $5.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to the hiring of additional personnel to support the growth of the Company and an increase in employee compensation and benefits expense in order to retain key personnel, partially offset by an increase in loan origination offset expenses.

Occupancy expense increased $26,000, or 3.5%, to $764,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $738,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to repairs and maintenance at various offices and increased utilities cost.

Equipment expense increased $10,000, or 4.4%, to $235,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $225,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 due to the purchases of equipment to support the increase in employees.

Real estate owned expense decreased $238,000 to none for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $238,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 due to the sale of the Pittsburgh real estate owned property in December 2025. The $238,000 real estate owned expense during the third quarter of 2025 comprised mainly of charge-offs of $222,000 and operating expense of the Pittsburgh property. The write down of $222,000 on the fair market value of a foreclosed property during the three months ended September 30, 2025 was due to the deterioration of the office occupancy rate in the Pittsburgh business district office market due to workers continuing to work remotely post pandemic and the high operating expenses due to inflation.

Outside data processing expense decreased $103,000, or 12.7%, to $711,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $814,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 due to a reduction in one-time initial fees for new services.

Advertising expense decreased $93,000, or 80.9%, to $22,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2026 from $115,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 due to a decrease in various marketing campaigns.

Income Taxes

We recorded income tax expense of $4.5 million and $4.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.

Results of Operations for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026 and 2025

Financial Highlights

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $30.4 million compared to net income of $33.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease in net income of $3.2 million, or 9.5%, between periods was primarily due to a decrease of $1.9 million in non-interest income, an increase of $773,000 in non-interest expense, an increase of $623,000 in credit loss expense, and a decrease of $401,000 in net interest income, partially offset by a decrease of $468,000 in income tax expense.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $74.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 as compared to $75.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease in net interest income of $401,000, or 0.5%, was primarily due to a decrease in interest income that exceeded a decrease in interest expense and a decrease in the yield on interest earning assets, partially offset by a smaller decrease in the cost of funds for interest bearing liabilities.

Total interest and dividend income decreased $4.8 million, or 4.2%, to $110.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 from $115.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease in interest and dividend income was due to a decrease in the yield on interest earning assets by 61 basis points from 8.10% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 to 7.50% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, partially offset by an

increase in the average balance of interest earning assets of $67.9 million, or 3.6%, to $2.0 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 from $1.9 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Interest expense decreased $4.4 million, or 11.0%, to $35.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 from $40.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease in interest expense was due to a decrease in the cost of interest bearing liabilities by 47 basis points from 3.95% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 to 3.48% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, partially offset by an increase in average interest bearing liabilities of $12.5 million, or 0.9%, to $1.4 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 from $1.4 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Net interest margin decreased 21 basis points, or 4.0%, to 5.07% for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to 5.28% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease in the net interest margin was due to a 75 basis points decrease in the Federal Funds rate from September 2025 to December 2025, partially offset by a 25 basis points increase in the Federal Funds rate in September 2026. These interest rate movements resulted in a decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets and a smaller decrease in the cost of funds on interest-bearing liabilities.

Credit Loss Expense

The Company recorded a credit loss expense of $860,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to a credit loss expense of $237,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The credit loss expense of $860,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was comprised of credit loss expense for loans of $568,000, credit loss expense for off-balance sheet commitments of $283,000, and credit loss expense for held-to-maturity securities of $9,000. The credit loss expense of $237,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was comprised of credit loss expense for loans of $62,000 and credit loss expense for off-balance sheet commitments of $175,000.

The credit loss expense for loans of $568,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was primarily due to an increase in the loan portfolio and replenishment of the allowance for credit losses due to charge-offs totaling $584,000.

The credit loss expense for off-balance sheet commitments of $283,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was primarily due to an increase in unfunded off-balance sheet commitments. The credit loss expense for held-to-maturity securities of $9,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was primarily due to an increase in the municipal bond portfolio.

The credit loss expense for loans of $62,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily due to an increase in the multi-family loan portfolio. The credit loss expense for off-balance sheet commitments of $175,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was primarily due to an increase in unfunded off-balance sheet commitments.

With respect to the allowance for credit losses for loans, we charged off $584,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 as compared to charge-offs of $678,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

respect to a previously charged-off non-residential mortgage loan and $184,000 from previously charged-off unpaid overdrafts on demand deposit accounts.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $1.3 million compared to non-interest income of $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The decrease of $1.9 million, or 59.7%, in total non-interest income was primarily due to decreases of $1.9 million in unrealized gain/(loss) on equity securities, $82,000 in other loan fees and service charges, and a loss of $10,000 on the disposition of fixed assets, partially offset by increases of $57,000 in miscellaneous other non-interest income and $43,000 in BOLI income.

The decrease in unrealized gain on equity securities was due to an unrealized loss of $1.3 million on equity securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to an unrealized gain of $521,000 on equity securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025. Both the unrealized loss of $1.3 million on equity securities during the 2026 period and the unrealized gain of $521,000 on equity securities during the 2025 period were due to market interest rate volatility during both periods.

The decrease of $82,000 in other loan fees and service charges was due to a decrease of $240,000 in other loan fees and loan servicing fees, partially offset by an increase of $154,000 in ATM/debit card/ACH fees and $3,000 in deposit account fees. The increase of $57,000 in miscellaneous other non-interest income was due to increases in miscellaneous operating income during the quarter. The increase in BOLI income of $43,000 was due to an increase in the yield on BOLI assets.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense increased $773,000, or 2.5%, to $32.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 from $31.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025. The increase resulted primarily from increases of $965,000 in other operating expenses, $448,000 in salaries and employee benefits, and $199,000 in occupancy expense, partially offset by decreases of $515,000 in real estate owned expense, $232,000 in advertising expense, $76,000 in outside data processing expense, and $16,000 in equipment expense.

Other non-interest expense increased $965,000, or 11.5%, to $9.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 from $8.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 due mainly to increases of $1.2 million in miscellaneous other non-interest expense, $120,000 in service contract expense, $87,000 in consulting fees, $37,000 in insurance expense, $37,000 in directors, officers, and employee expense, $28,000 in directors compensation, and $11,000 in personnel recruitment expense. These increases were partially offset by decreases of $368,000 in regulatory fees, $61,000 in audit and accounting fees, $60,000 in telephone expense, $34,000 in dues and subscriptions expense, $25,000 in office supplies expense, and $3,000 in legal fees.

The increase of $1.2 million in miscellaneous other non-interest expense was mainly due to increases of $1.1 million in miscellaneous charge-offs, $112,000 in public company expenses, and $24,000 in check and correspondent bank charges, partially offset by decreases of $4,000 in postage expense and $3,000 in miscellaneous other non-interest expense. The increase of $1.1 million in miscellaneous charge-offs was due to an increase in customer fraud involving checks and debit cards.

Salaries and employee benefits increased $448,000, or 2.6%, to $17.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 from $17.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to the hiring of additional personnel to support the growth of the Company and an increase in employee compensation and benefits expense in order to retain key personnel, partially offset by an increase in loan origination offset expenses.

Occupancy expense increased $199,000, or 8.9%, to $2.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 from $2.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 primarily due to repairs and maintenance at various offices and increased utilities cost.

Real estate owned expense decreased $515,000 to none for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 from $515,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 due to the sale of two real estate owned properties during 2025, with the Bronx real estate owned property sold in June 2025 and the Pittsburgh real estate owned property sold in

Table of Contents

December 2025. The $515,000 real estate owned expense in 2025 comprised mainly of closing costs of $231,000 associated with the sale of the Bronx property, charge-offs of $222,000 on the Pittsburgh property, and operating costs of the Pittsburgh property. The write down of $222,000 on the fair market value of the Pittsburgh property was due to the deterioration of the office occupancy rate in the Pittsburgh business district office market due to workers continuing to work remotely post pandemic and the high operating expenses due to inflation.

Advertising expense decreased $232,000, or 68.2%, to $108,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 from $340,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 due to a decrease in various marketing campaigns.

The non-performing assets at September 30, 2026 consisted of one construction loan totaling $13.9 million and two commercial and industrial loans totaling $3.5 million that are in foreclosure and are secured by a seven story multi-family building with 63 apartment units and one ground floor commercial space occupied by a supermarket, located in the Bronx, New York. We do not currently anticipate any losses on these three loans because we believe the outstanding loan balance is sufficiently collateralized by the value of the security property.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, we did not collect any interest income from loans that were in non-accrual status.

From time to time, as part of our loss mitigation strategy, we may modify loans to borrowers in financial distress by providing principal forgiveness, term extension, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, or interest rate reduction. When principal forgiveness is provided, the amount of forgiveness is charged off against the allowance for credit losses.

There were no new loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties during the three months ended September 30, 2026 or 2025. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, there were modifications to the aforementioned three loans totaling $17.4 million to one borrower experiencing financial difficulty whereby the weighted average contractual interest rates of the three loans were reduced to 5.75% from 8.75%. There were no loans modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

The Company’s allowance for credit losses related to loans totaled $4.7 million, or 0.23% of total loans as of September 30, 2026 compared to $4.7 million, or 0.25% of total loans as of December 31, 2025. In addition, the Company’s allowance for credit losses related to off-balance sheet commitments totaled $1.2 million as of September 30, 2026 compared to $879,000 at December 31, 2025. The allowance for credit losses related to held-to-maturity debt securities totaled $135,000 at September 30, 2026 compared to $126,000 at December 31, 2025.

The allowance for credit losses related to loans decreased $8,000 to $4.7 million at September 30, 2026 from $4.7 million at December 31, 2025 due primarily to charge-offs totaling $584,000, partially offset by provision for credit losses of $568,000 due to replenishment of the allowance for credit losses due to charge-offs totaling $584,000 and recoveries of $8,000.

The allowance for credit losses related to off-balance sheet commitments increased $284,000 to $1.2 million at September 30, 2026 from $879,000 at December 31, 2025 due to a provision for credit losses of $284,000 due to an increase of $83.1 million, or 12.2%, in outstanding commitments to $762.8 million at September 30, 2026 from $679.7 million at December 31, 2025.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We maintain liquid assets at levels we believe are adequate to meet our liquidity needs. We established a liquidity ratio policy that identifies three liquidity ratios consisting of (1) Cash/Deposits & Short Term Borrowings (“Cash Liquidity”), (2) Cash & Investments/Deposits & Short Term Borrowings (“On Balance Sheet Liquidity”), and (3) Cash & Investments & Borrowing Capacity/Deposits & Short Term Borrowings (“On Balance Sheet Liquidity & Borrowing Capacity”) to assist in the management of our liquidity. We also establish targets of 2.0% for the Cash Liquidity ratio, 5.0% for the On Balance Sheet Liquidity ratio, and 20.0% for the On Balance Sheet Liquidity & Borrowing Capacity ratio.

Our Cash Liquidity ratio, On Balance Sheet Liquidity ratio, and On Balance Sheet Liquidity & Borrowing Capacity ratio averaged 4.0%, 6.6%, and 56.1%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to 5.0%,

Table of Contents

7.4%, and 59.9%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2025. We adjust our liquidity levels to fund deposit outflows, pay real estate taxes on real estate loans, repay our borrowings, and fund loan commitments. We also adjust liquidity as appropriate to meet asset and liability management objectives.

Our liquidity ratios cannot be calculated using amounts disclosed in our consolidated financial statements, as many of the calculations involve monthly, quarterly or annual averages. To calculate our liquidity ratios, the average liquidity base from the prior month is used as the denominator to calculate a daily liquidity ratio. The liquidity base consists of savings account balances, certificates of deposit balances, checking and money market balances, deposit loans and borrowings. The daily balances of these components are averaged to arrive at the liquidity base for the month, and the daily cash balances in selected general ledger accounts are used to derive our liquidity position. A daily liquidity ratio is calculated using the liquidity for the day divided by the prior month’s average liquidity base. At the end of each month, a monthly liquidity position is calculated using the average liquidity position for the month divided by the prior month’s average liquidity base. To calculate quarterly and annual liquidity ratios, we take the average liquidity for the three- or twelve-month period, respectively, and average it.

Given the rapid movement of deposits in today’s banking environment, the Company also manages its liquidity position through a time-series approach to liquidity availability. Traditional liquidity management focuses on on-balance sheet capacity; however, converting those assets into cash may involve delays or market-driven losses. To address this, the Company emphasizes the actual accessibility of liquidity as measured by when cash becomes available in the Company’s Cash Accounts rather than simply its balance sheet presence.

This time-series liquidity framework is analyzed across the following intervals: Minute 1, Day 1, Week 1, Month 1, and Year 1. This structure ensures a proactive and disciplined approach to managing liquidity risk.

Minute 1: Represents the amount of cash the Company can immediately access and disperse within one minute while remaining solvent. It is defined as the cash and cash equivalents currently on the balance sheet and typically covers daily cash needs.

Day 1: In the event of a liquidity run, this is the amount of cash that the Company can access and disperse within one day. It includes Minute 1 liquidity plus total borrowing capacity from the Federal Home Loan Bank, Federal Reserve Bank, and other secured and unsecured sources.

Week 1: In a prolonged liquidity event, this is the amount of cash available over one week. Week 1 liquidity includes Day 1 liquidity plus the estimated collateral value of unpledged investments that can be pledged or sold, as well as a portion (typically 10% each) of the Company’s brokered and listing service deposit capacity expected to be accessible within the week.

Month 1: Represents the total cash the Company can access and disperse over a one-month period while remaining solvent. It includes Week 1 liquidity plus the remaining brokered and listing service deposit capacity not already included in Week 1.

Year 1: Reflects the amount of liquidity the Company can access and deploy over a one-year time period. It includes Month 1 liquidity plus the value of unpledged but pledgeable loans available on the balance sheet.

To assess the adequacy of its liquidity, the Company compares time-series liquidity against Total Non-Contractual Deposits defined as total deposits less (1) brokered deposits outstanding, (2) other contractual funding outstanding, and (3) collateralized municipal deposits outstanding.

As of September 30, 2026, the Company’s ratios of Cash and Borrowing Capacity/Total Non-Contractual Deposits and Cash, Borrowing Capacity and Sourced Deposits Capacity/Total Non-Contractual Deposits were 87.5% and 114.2%, respectively. These figures demonstrate that the Company has sufficient liquidity resources to meet sudden and unexpected deposit outflow.

Our primary sources of liquidity are deposits, prepayment of loans and mortgage-backed securities, maturities of investment securities, other short-term investments, earnings, and funds provided from operations. While scheduled

Table of Contents

principal repayments on loans and mortgage-backed securities are a relatively predictable source of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by market interest rates, economic conditions, and rates offered by our competition. We set the interest rates on our deposits to maintain a desired level of total deposits. In addition, we invest excess funds in short-term interest-earning assets, which provide liquidity to meet lending requirements.

Our cash flows are derived from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities as reported in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included with our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our primary investing activities are the origination of construction loans, commercial and industrial loans, multifamily loans, and to a lesser extent, mixed-use real estate loans and other loans. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, our loan originations totaled $966.4 million and $714.3 million, respectively. Cash received from the maturities and pay-downs on securities totaled $1.6 million and $814,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. We purchased $2.0 million in municipal securities and $1.0 million in equity securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 compared to purchases of $2.5 million in municipal securities and $3.0 million in equity securities during the nine months ended September 30, 2025.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. If we require funds beyond our ability to generate them internally, borrowing agreements exist with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“FRBNY”) whereby the Bank pledged eligible loans under the Borrower-in-Custody program of the FRBNY allowing the Bank to borrow from the Discount Window at the FRBNY. We had an available borrowing limit of $1.0 billion and $768.8 million from the FRBNY at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. We had no FRBNY borrowings at September 30, 2026 compared to $70.0 million in FRBNY borrowings at December 31, 2025.

As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLB-NY”), we are required to own capital stock in the FHLB-NY and are authorized to apply for advances on the security of such stock and certain of our mortgage loans and other assets (principally securities which are obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States), provided certain standards related to credit-worthiness have been met. In February 2026, we withdrew our pledged eligible loans from the FHLB-NY’s advance program and are in the process of pledging these eligible loans with the FRBNY to increase our borrowing capacity with the FRBNY. Due to the withdrawal of pledged eligible loans from the FHLB-NY, we no longer have any borrowing capacity at the FHLB-NY at September 30, 2026 compared to borrowing capacity at the FHLB-NY of $35.8 million at December 31, 2025. We had no FHLB-NY advances at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

In addition, we are party to a loan agreement with ACBB under which we can borrow up to $8.0 million in short-term borrowings. There were no outstanding borrowings with ACBB at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

At September 30, 2026, we had unfunded commitments on construction and multi-family mortgage loans of $534.4 million, outstanding commitments to originate loans of $139.8 million, unfunded commitments under commercial and industrial loans lines of credit of $74.9 million, and unfunded standby letters of credit of $13.8 million. At September 30, 2026, certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in less than one year totaled $930.8 million. Based on prior experience, management believes that a significant portion of such deposits will remain with us, although there can be no assurance that this will be the case. In the event a significant portion of our deposits are not retained by us, we will have to utilize other funding sources, such as various types of sourced deposits, or Federal Reserve Bank borrowings, in order to maintain our level of assets. Alternatively, we could reduce our level of liquid assets, such as our cash and cash equivalents. In addition, the cost of such deposits may be significantly higher or lower depending on market interest rates at the time of renewal.

The Company is a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for its own liquidity. In addition to its operating expenses, the Company is responsible for paying any dividends declared to its stockholders and for the repurchase, if any, of its shares of common stock. At September 30, 2026, the Company had liquid assets of $2.7 million and $1.9 million in loan participations originated by the Bank which are held by the Company.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, we did not engage in any off-balance sheet transactions reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cashflows.

Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The consolidated financial statements and related notes of NorthEast Community Bancorp have been prepared in accordance with GAAP, which generally requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without consideration for changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The primary impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of our operations. Unlike industrial companies, our assets and liabilities are primarily monetary in nature. As a result, changes in market interest rates have a greater impact on performance than the effects of inflation.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest rate risk is defined as the exposure to current and future earnings and capital that arises from adverse movements in interest rates. Depending on a bank’s asset/liability structure, adverse movements in interest rates could be either rising or falling interest rates. For example, a bank with predominantly long-term fixed-rate assets and short-term liabilities could have an adverse earnings exposure to a rising rate environment. Conversely, a short-term or variable-rate asset base funded by longer-term liabilities could be negatively affected by falling rates. This is referred to as re-pricing or maturity mismatch risk.

Interest rate risk also arises from changes in the slope of the yield curve (yield curve risk), from imperfect correlations in the adjustment of rates earned and paid on different instruments with otherwise similar re-pricing characteristics (basis risk), and from interest rate related options embedded in our assets and liabilities (option risk).

Our objective is to manage our interest rate risk by determining whether a given movement in interest rates affects our net interest income and the market value of our portfolio equity in a positive or negative way and to execute strategies to maintain interest rate risk within established limits. The results at September 30, 2026 indicate the level of risk within the parameters of our model. Our management believes that the September 30, 2026 results indicate a profile that reflects interest rate risk exposures in both rising and declining rate environments for both net interest income and economic value.

Model Simulation Analysis. We view interest rate risk from two different perspectives. The traditional accounting perspective, which defines and measures interest rate risk as the change in net interest income and earnings caused by a change in interest rates, provides the best view of short-term interest rate risk exposure. We also view interest rate risk from an economic perspective, which defines and measures interest rate risk as the change in the market value of portfolio equity caused by changes in the values of assets and liabilities, which fluctuate due to changes in interest rates. The market value of portfolio equity, also referred to as the economic value of equity, is defined as the present value of future cash flows from existing assets, minus the present value of future cash flows from existing liabilities.

These two perspectives give rise to income simulation and economic value simulation, each of which presents a unique picture of our risk of any movement in interest rates. Income simulation identifies the timing and magnitude of changes in income resulting from changes in prevailing interest rates over a short-term time horizon (usually one or two years). Economic value simulation reflects the interest rate sensitivity of assets and liabilities in a more comprehensive fashion, reflecting all future time periods. It can identify the quantity of interest rate risk as a function of the changes in the economic values of assets and liabilities, and the corresponding change in the economic value of equity of NorthEast Community Bank. Both types of simulation assist in identifying, measuring, monitoring and controlling interest rate risk and are employed by management to ensure that variations in interest rate risk exposure will be maintained within policy guidelines.

We produce these simulation reports and discuss them at our Asset and Liability Committee meetings on at least a quarterly basis. The simulation reports compare baseline (no interest rate change) to the results of an interest rate shock, to illustrate the specific impact of the interest rate scenario tested on income and equity. The model, which incorporates asset and liability rate information, simulates the effect of various interest rate movements on income and equity value. The reports identify and measure our interest rate risk exposure present in our current asset/liability structure. Management considers both a static (current position) and dynamic (forecast changes in volume) analysis as well as non-parallel and gradual changes in interest rates and the yield curve in assessing interest rate exposures.

Table of Contents

If the results produce quantifiable interest rate risk exposure beyond our limits, then the testing will have served as a monitoring mechanism to allow us to initiate asset/liability strategies designed to reduce and therefore mitigate interest rate risk. The table below sets forth an approximation of our interest rate risk exposure. The simulation uses projected repricing of assets and liabilities at September 30, 2026. The income simulation analysis presented represents a one-year impact of the interest scenario assuming a static balance sheet. Various assumptions are made regarding the prepayment speed and optionality of loans, investment securities and deposits, which are based on analysis and market information. The assumptions regarding optionality, such as prepayments of loans and the effective lives and repricing of non-maturity deposit products, are documented periodically through evaluation of current market conditions and historical correlations to our specific asset and liability products under varying interest rate scenarios.

Because the prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes are based on a number of assumptions, these computations should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. While we believe such assumptions to be reasonable, assumed prepayment rates may not approximate actual future prepayment activity on mortgage-backed securities or agency issued collateralized obligations (secured by one- to four-family loans and multifamily loans). Further, the computation does not reflect any actions that management may undertake in response to changes in interest rates and assumes a constant asset base. Management periodically reviews the rate assumptions based on existing and projected economic conditions and consults with industry experts to validate our model and simulation results.

The table below sets forth, as of September 30, 2026, NorthEast Community Bank’s net portfolio value, the estimated changes in our net portfolio value and net interest income that would result from the designated instantaneous parallel changes in market interest rates.


		Twelve Month
		Net Interest Income		Net Portfolio Value
		Percent					Percent
Change in Interest Rates (Basis Points)		of Change		Estimated NPV			of Change
+200		17.38	%	$	384,994		(2.34)	%
+100		8.74			390,248		(1.01)
0		—			394,217		—
-100		(9.63)			395,158		0.24
-200		(19.31)	%		393,119		(0.28)	%

As of September 30, 2026, based on the scenarios above, net interest income would increase by approximately 8.74% to 17.38%, over a one-year time horizon in a rising interest rate environment. One-year net interest income would decrease by approximately 9.63% to 19.31% in a declining interest rate environment over the same period.

Economic value at risk would be positively impacted by a rise in interest rates and negatively impacted by a decline in interest rates. We have established an interest rate floor of zero percent for measuring interest rate risk. The difference between the two results reflects the relatively long terms of a portion of our assets which is captured by the economic value at risk but has less impact on the one-year net interest income sensitivity.

Overall, our September 30, 2026 results indicate that we are adequately positioned with an acceptable net interest income and economic value at risk and that all interest rate risk results continue to be within our policy guidelines.
