During the second quarter of 2026, as compared to the previous quarter, interest expense on deposits increased by $100,000, or 4.2%, due to a $10.9 million, or 2.3% increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits and a three basis point increase in the average interest rate paid on interest-bearing deposit accounts.

The average interest rate paid on deposit accounts increased three basis points during the second quarter of 2026, when compared to the previous quarter primarily due to a two basis point increase in the average interest rate paid on money market accounts.

Credit Quality
The Company’s allowance for credit losses on loans was $4.7 million as of June 30, 2026 as compared to $4.9 million as of December 31, 2025. The Company’s allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments was $495,000 as of June 30, 2026 as compared to $361,000 as of December 31, 2025. Non-performing assets as a percent of total assets decreased to 0.20% at June 30, 2026 as compared to 0.23% at December 31, 2025, primarily due to a decrease in non-performing assets of $250,000, or 14.9%. The Company’s allowance for credit losses on loans as a percent of loans at amortized cost was 0.84% and 0.87% and its allowance for credit losses on loans as a percent of non-performing loans was 331.85% and 290.71% at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
The Company recorded $119,000 provision for credit losses during the second quarter of 2026 and recorded a net provision for credit losses of $5,000 for the first half of 2026. Of the amount recorded for the second quarter of 2026, $170,000 related to a provision recorded to the allowance for credit losses for unfunded commitments, and $51,000 related to a credit recorded to the allowance for credit losses on the loan portfolio. For the first half of 2026, $134,000 related to a provision recorded to the allowance for credit losses for unfunded commitments, and $137,000 related to a credit recorded to the allowance for credit losses on the loan portfolio, net of charge-offs and recoveries. The increase in the allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments and the corresponding provision for credit losses recognized during the first half of 2026 was primarily the result of an increase in outstanding unfunded commitments between the periods. The decrease in the allowance for credit losses on the loan portfolio was primarily related to a decrease in the calculated reserve rates, including the expected quantitative losses inclusive of forecasted economic trends, and the qualitative factor loss rates related to economic factors. The decrease primarily related to the commercial real estate and residential mortgage loan pools, partially offset by an increase in the calculation of expected losses for the commercial loan pool.
