VIRGINIA NATIONAL BANKSHARES CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

June 30, 2024

Note 1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Principles of Consolidation: The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information. Accordingly, the unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The statements should be read in conjunction with the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Nature of Operations: The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company, and its subsidiaries Virginia National Bank and Masonry Capital Management, LLC, a registered investment advisor. The Bank offers a full range of banking and related financial services to meet the needs of individuals, businesses and charitable organizations, including the fiduciary services of VNB Trust and Estate Services. Effective April 1, 2024, the Company sold the membership interests in Masonry Capital Management, LLC to an officer of the Company. Subsequent to the date of sale, the Company will receive an annual revenue-share amount for a period of six years. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Basis of Presentation: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP and the reporting guidelines prescribed by regulatory authorities 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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the ACL, accounting for business combinations, including loans acquired in the business combination, ACL on individually evaluated loans, goodwill impairment, credit losses of securities, other intangible assets, and fair value measurements. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2024.

Reclassifications: If needed, certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. No such reclassifications were considered material.

Note 2. Recent Significant Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Adopted in 2024: In March 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-02, “Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method.” These amendments allow reporting entities to elect to account for qualifying tax equity investments using the proportional amortization method, regardless of the program giving rise to the related income tax credits. ASU 2023-02 was effective for the Company on January 1, 2024. The adoption of ASU 2023-02 did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Issued but Not Yet Adopted: On March 29, 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-02, Codification Improvements- Amendments to Remove References to the Concepts Statements, which amends the Codification to remove references to various concepts statements and impacts a variety of topics in the Codification. The amendments apply to all reporting entities within the scope of the affected accounting guidance, but in most instances the references removed are extraneous and not required to understand or apply the guidance. Generally, the amendments in ASU 2024-02 are not intended to result in significant accounting changes for most entities.

The Company’s securities portfolio is primarily made up of fixed rate instruments, the prices of which move inversely with interest rates. Any unrealized losses are considered by management to be driven by increases in market interest rates over the yields available at the time the underlying securities were purchased. The fair value is expected to recover as the instruments approach their maturity date or repricing date or if market yields for such investments decline. At the end of any accounting period, the portfolio may have both unrealized gains and losses.

Impairment of debt securities occurs when the fair value of a security is less than its amortized cost. The Company has elected to exclude accrued interest receivable from the amortized cost basis. For debt securities AFS, impairment is recognized in its entirety in net income if either, (i) we intend to sell the security; or, (ii) it is more-likely-than-not that we will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If, however, the Company does not intend to sell the security and it is not more-likely-than-not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery, the Company evaluates unrealized losses to determine whether a decline in fair value below amortized cost basis is a result of a credit loss, which occurs when the amortized cost basis of the security exceeds the present value of the cash flows expected to be collected from the security, or other factors such as changes in market interest rates. If a credit loss exists, an ACL is recorded that reflects the amount of the impairment related to credit losses, limited by the amount by which the security’s amortized cost basis exceeds its fair value. Changes in the ACL are recorded in net income in the period of change and are included in the provision for credit losses. Changes in the fair value of debt securities AFS not resulting from credit losses are recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). The Company regularly reviews unrealized losses in its investments in securities and cash flows expected to be collected from impaired securities based on criteria including the extent to which market value is below amortized cost, the financial health of and specific prospects for the issuer, the Company’s intention with regard to holding the security to maturity and the likelihood that the Company would be required to sell the security before recovery.

Management does not believe any of the securities in an unrealized loss position are impaired due to credit quality. In addition, issuers have continued to make timely payments of principal and interest. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2024, management believes the impairments detailed in the table above are temporary, and no credit loss has been realized in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. Additionally, management has the ability to hold any security with an unrealized loss until maturity or until such time as the value of the security has recovered from its unrealized loss position.

Securities pledged as collateral to secure public deposits and to facilitate borrowing from the FRB had carrying values of $21.6 million and $21.8 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company sold AFS securities with a total book value of $39.6 million, incurring a pre-tax loss of $4 thousand, and AFS securities with a book value of $49.9 million incurring a loss of $206 thousand, respectively. Each of these sales was executed as the result of a strategic decision to reinvest proceeds into higher yielding assets.

Restricted securities are securities with limited marketability and consist of stock in the FRB, the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta, CBB Financial Corporation (the holding company for Community Bankers' Bank) and an investment in an SBA loan fund. These restricted securities, totaling $6.7 million and $8.4 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, are carried at cost.

The amortized cost and fair value of AFS debt securities at June 30, 2024 are presented below based upon contractual maturities, by major investment categories (dollars in thousands). Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers have the right to call or prepay obligations.

Troubled loan modifications

From time to time, the Company modifies loans to borrowers who are experiencing financial difficulties by providing term extensions, interest rate reductions or other-than-insignificant payment delays. As the effect of most modifications is already included in the ACL due to the measurement methodologies used in its estimate, the ACL is typically not adjusted upon modification. During the first quarter of 2024, one 1-4 family residential mortgage loan was modified for a borrower experiencing financial difficulties, in the amount of $703 thousand and representing 0.002% of this loan segment, by extending the interest-only term and maintaining the original interest rate. During the three months ended June 30, 2024 and the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, no loans were modified.

The Company closely monitors the performance of all modified loans to understand the effectiveness of its modification efforts. Upon determination, if applicable, that all or a portion of a modified loan is uncollectible, that amount is charged against the ACL. There were no payment defaults during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 or 2023 of modified loans that were modified during the previous twelve months. All modified loans are current as of June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023.

Note 5. Allowance for Credit Losses

The ACL on the loan portfolio is a material estimate for the Company. The Company estimates is ACL on its loan portfolio on a quarterly basis. The Company utilizes two methodologies in its development of the ACL, discounted cash flow and remaining life.

•

Discounted Cash Flow

DCF models, being periodic in nature, allow for effective incorporation of a reasonable and supportable forecast in a directionally consistent and objective manner.

The analysis aligns well with other calculations/actions outside the ACL estimation, which will mitigate model risk in other areas and allow for symmetrical application. For example, fair value (exit price notion), profitability analysis, IRR calculations, ALM, stress testing, and other forms of cash flow analysis.

Peer data is available for certain inputs (Probability of Default, Loss Given Default) if first-party data is not available or meaningful. This is made possible by the periodic nature of the model.

The DCF methodology is utilized on the following pools: 1) Commercial & Industrial; 2) Construction; 3) Consumer; 4) CRE NonOwner Occupied; 5) CRE Owner Occupied; 6) HELOC & Junior Lien; 7) Residential 1st Lien; and 8) Multifamily.

•

Remaining Life

This methodology leverages a quarterly loss rate as well as future expectations of portfolio balances to calculate a reserve.

There are two main strengths of this methodology. First, it is fairly easy to execute and does not rely on large quantities of historical loan-level data. Second, it can satisfy the need to incorporate a reasonable and supportable forecast in a straightforward manner by either applying a forecast policy of “applicable history” or leveraging an actual econometric model for the analysis.

The remaining life methodology is utilized on the following pools: 1) Minute Lender; and 2) Student Loans.

Maximum Loss Rate - Management utilizes the same model to calculate maximum loss rates and expected loss rates for each segment. No additional models or methodologies were used to quantify the maximum loss rate, rather, a worst-case economic environment is utilized in the models. This process ensures symmetry between the maximum loss rate and the quantified loss rate. This process also leverages the well-documented regression models used in model development.

The process for deriving the maximum loss rate is outlined below:

•

The economic forecast reflects the worst economic environment observed for each economic factor. This is done by quantifying a rolling 1-year average for each economic factor. Then, the most pessimistic 1-year average observations are captured and utilized as economic forecast inputs within the application.

•

The economic forecast assumed is a ‘worst-case’ economic environment with inputs reflective of the great recession.

•

The economic forecast is used to quantify credit risk in the form of Loss Rate. The resulting periodic default and loss rates are applied to the prepayment adjusted amortization schedules for each segment.

•

The resulting ACL, which represents a lifetime reserve (symmetrical to the base model), is input into the qualitative framework’s maximum loss rate field. The difference between the expected model and the maximum model results are then allocated based on weight and risk assignment.

Qualitative Factors - ASC 326 requires an entity to adjust historical loss information to reflect the extent to which management expects reasonable and supportable forecasts to differ from the conditions that existed for the period over which historical information was evaluated. The adjustments for reasonable and supportable forecasts may be qualitative in nature and should reflect changes related to relevant data.

The Company utilizes a scorecard approach to assign qualitative factors. The scorecard approach is in alignment with the AICPA audit considerations for CECL which states:

These adjustments should be grounded in a methodology that is subject to appropriate governance, challenge, and periodic controlled reevaluation. Such methodology will generally require significant management judgment. The information used to support management’s adjustments may be publicly available information, information specifically developed for the entity via management’s specialist (internal or external), or other relevant and reliable information.

The purpose of the qualitative scorecard is to provide a qualitative estimate of the expected credit losses of the current loan portfolio in response to potential limitations of the quantitative model. It is used to aid in the assessment of the unquantifiable factors affecting expected credit losses in the loan portfolio. Benefits of the scorecard include directional consistency, objectivity, controls and quantification framework (auditable).

For each segment, the scorecard calculates the difference between the quantitative expected credit loss and the maximum loss rate. This difference represents all available qualitative adjustment that can be applied to that segment.

Individual Evaluation - In accordance with ASC 326, the Company will evaluate individual loans for expected credit losses when those loans do not share similar risk characteristics with loans evaluated using a collective (pooled) basis. Loans will not be included in both collective and individual analysis. Individual analysis will establish a specific reserve for each loan, using one of four methods: 1) Fair Value of Collateral Method (Collateral Relationship); 2) Cash Flow Method; 3) Advanced Cash Flow Method; or 4) Loan Pricing Method.

Management has elected to perform an individual evaluation on all loans in nonaccrual status. As of June 30, 2024, after reviewing each loan in nonaccrual status, no specific reserve was deemed necessary. As of December 31, 2023, a specific reserve of $4 thousand was established.

The primary driver in the change in reserves from December 31, 2023 to June 30, 2024 was the proportional increase in government-guaranteed loans which do not require an ACL. Balances in government-guaranteed loans have increased $74.6 million from December 31, 2023 to June 30, 2024 and have increased $130.2 million year-over-year. Such loans are 100% government-guaranteed and do not require an ACL.

Credit Quality Indicators

The Company utilizes the following credit quality indicators:

Pass

Loans with the following risk ratings are pooled by class and considered together as “Pass”:

Excellent – minimal risk loans secured by cash or fully guaranteed by a U.S. government agency

Good – low risk loans secured by marketable collateral within margin

Satisfactory – modest risk loans where the borrower has strong and liquid financial statements and more than adequate cash flow

Average – average risk loans where the borrower has reasonable debt service capacity

Marginal – acceptable risk loans where the borrower has acceptable financial statements but is leveraged

Watch

These loans have an acceptable risk but require more attention than normal servicing.

Special Mention

These potential problem loans are currently protected but are potentially weak.

Substandard

These problem loans are inadequately protected by the sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower and/or the value of any collateral pledged. If such loans are not accruing interest, they would be evaluated on an individual basis.

Doubtful

Loans with this rating have significant deterioration in the sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower and/or the value of any collateral pledged, making collection or liquidation of the loan in full highly questionable. These loans would be considered impaired and evaluated on an individual basis.

Note 6. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The carrying amount of goodwill was $7.8 million at June 30, 2024, December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, resulting from the Merger.

The Company had $4.4 million, $5.1 million and $5.8 million of other intangible assets as of June 30, 2024, December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively. Other intangible assets were recognized in connection with the core deposits acquired from Fauquier in 2021. The following table summarizes the gross carrying amounts and accumulated amortization of other intangible assets (dollars in thousands):


	June 30, 2024					December 31, 2023					June 30, 2023

Note 7. Leases

Lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments and are presented at each reporting date as the net present value of the remaining contractual cash flows. Cash flows are discounted at the Company’s incremental borrowing rate in effect at the commencement date of the lease for a term similar to the length of the lease, including any probable renewal options available. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use the underlying asset for the lease term and are calculated as the sum of the lease liability and if applicable, prepaid rent, initial direct costs and any incentives received from the lessor.

Lease payments for short-term leases are recognized as lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Payments for leases with terms longer than twelve months are included in the determination of the lease liability.

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

The following tables present information about the Company’s leases (dollars in thousands):


	June 30, 2024			December 31, 2023

Note 8. Net Income Per Share

The table below shows the weighted average number of shares used in computing net income per common share and the effect of the weighted average number of shares of potential dilutive common stock for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. Diluted net income per share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock equivalents outstanding, to the extent dilutive. The Company’s common stock equivalents relate to outstanding common stock options. The recipients of unvested restricted shares have full voting and dividend rights, and as such, unvested restricted stock as of June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 is included in the calculation of basic and diluted net income per share (dollars below reported in thousands except per share data).


Three Months Ended	June 30, 2024						June 30, 2023
	Net Income		Weighted Average Shares		Per Share Amount		Net Income		Weighted Average Shares		Per Share Amount

Diluted net income per share	$	7,805	$	5,382,980	$	1.45	$	11,442		5,375,545	$	2.13

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, there were 149,001 option shares considered anti-dilutive and excluded from this calculation. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, there were 105,501 option shares considered anti-dilutive and excluded from this calculation.

Note 9. Stock Incentive Plans

At the Annual Shareholders Meeting on June 23, 2022, shareholders approved the Virginia National Bankshares Corporation 2022 Stock Incentive Plan. The 2022 Plan made available up to 150,000 shares of the Company’s common stock to be issued to plan participants. The 2022 Plan provides for granting of both incentive and nonqualified stock options, as well as restricted stock, unrestricted stock and other stock based awards. No new grants can be issued under the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan or the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan as those plans have expired.

For the 2022 Plan, the option price for any stock options cannot be less than the fair value of the Company’s stock on the grant date. In addition, 95% of the common stock authorized for issuance must have a vesting or exercise schedule of at least one year. For the 2014 Plan and the 2005 Plan, the option price of incentive stock options cannot be less than the fair value of the stock at the time an option is granted and nonqualified stock options may be granted at prices established by the Board of Directors, including prices less than the fair value on the date of grant. Outstanding stock options generally expire ten years from the grant date. Stock options generally vest by the fourth or fifth anniversary of the date of the grant.

A summary of the shares issued and available under each of the Plans is shown below as of June 30, 2024. Share data and exercise price range per share have been adjusted to reflect prior issued stock dividends. Although the 2014 Plan and the 2005 Plan have expired and no new grants will be issued under those plans, there were options issued before the plans expired that are still outstanding as shown below.

The Company accounts for all of its stock incentive plans under recognition and measurement accounting principles which require that the compensation cost relating to stock-based payment transactions be recognized in the financial statements. Stock-based compensation arrangements include stock options and restricted stock. All stock-based payments to employees are required to be valued at a fair value on the date of grant and expensed based on that fair value over the applicable vesting period.

Note 10. Fair Value Measurements

Determination of Fair Value

The Company follows ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. This codification clarifies that the fair value of a financial instrument is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value is best determined based upon quoted market prices. However, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques. Those techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Accordingly, the fair value estimates may not be realized in an immediate settlement of the instrument.

The fair value guidance provides a consistent definition of fair value, which focuses on exit price in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction (that is, not a forced liquidation or distressed sale) between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. If there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability, a change in valuation technique or the use of multiple valuation techniques may be appropriate. In such instances, determining the price at which willing market participants would transact at the measurement date under current market conditions depends on the facts and circumstances and requires the use of significant judgment. The fair value is a reasonable point within the range that is most representative of fair value under current market conditions.

Fair Value Hierarchy

In accordance with this guidance, the Company groups its financial assets and financial liabilities generally measured at fair value in three levels, based on the markets in which the assets and liabilities are traded and the reliability of the assumptions used to determine fair value:


	Level 1 –		Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

	Level 2 –		Valuation is based on observable inputs including quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in less active markets, and model-based valuation techniques for which significant assumptions can be derived primarily from or corroborated by observable data in the market.

	Level 3 –		Valuation is based on model-based techniques that use one or more significant inputs or assumptions that are unobservable in the market

The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value on a recurring basis in the consolidated financial statements:

Securities available for sale

Securities AFS are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted market prices, when available (Level 1). If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are measured utilizing independent valuation techniques of identical or similar securities for which significant assumptions are derived primarily from or corroborated by observable market data. Third party vendors compile prices from various sources and may determine the fair value of identical or similar securities by using pricing models that consider observable market data (Level 2).

The following tables present the balances measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 (dollars in thousands):

Certain financial assets are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in accordance with GAAP. Adjustments to the fair value of these assets usually result from the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write downs of individual assets. The following describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure certain assets recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the consolidated financial statements:

Collateral Dependent Loans with an ACL

In accordance with ASC 326, we may determine that an individual loan exhibits unique risk characteristics which differentiate it from other loans within our loan pools. In such cases, the loans are evaluated for expected credit losses on an individual basis and excluded from the collective evaluation. Specific allocations of the ACL are determined by analyzing the borrower's ability to repay amounts owed, collateral deficiencies, the relative risk grade of the loan and economic conditions affecting the borrower's industry, among other things. A loan is considered to be collateral dependent when, based upon management's assessment, the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral. In such cases, expected credit losses are based on the fair value of the collateral at the measurement date, adjusted for estimated selling costs if satisfaction of the loan depends on the sale of the collateral. We reevaluate the fair value of collateral supporting collateral dependent loans on a quarterly basis. The fair value of real estate collateral supporting collateral dependent loans is evaluated by appraisal services using a methodology that is consistent with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice.

There were no assets that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of June 30, 2024. The following table presents the Company's assets that were measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of December 31, 2023:

ASC 825, “Financial Instruments,” requires disclosures about fair value of financial instruments for interim periods and excludes certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments from its disclosure requirements. Accordingly, the aggregate fair value amounts presented may not necessarily represent the underlying fair value of the Company.

The Company uses the exit price notion in calculating the fair values of financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The carrying values and estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 are as follows (dollars in thousands):

The Company assumes interest rate risk (the risk that general interest rate levels will change) as a result of its normal operations. Consequently, the fair values of the Company’s financial instruments will fluctuate when interest rate levels change, and that change may be either favorable or unfavorable to the Company. Management attempts to match maturities of assets and liabilities to the extent believed necessary to minimize interest rate risk; however, borrowers with fixed rate obligations are less likely to prepay in a rising rate environment and more likely to prepay in a falling rate environment. Conversely, depositors who are receiving fixed rates are more likely to withdraw funds before maturity in a rising rate environment and less likely to do so in a falling rate environment. Management monitors rates and maturities of assets and liabilities and attempts to minimize interest rate risk by adjusting terms of new loans and deposits and by investing in securities with terms that mitigate the Company’s overall interest rate risk.

Note 12. Segment Reporting

For the financial periods noted in this report, the Company has three reportable segments. Each reportable segment is a strategic business unit that offers different products and services. They are managed separately, because each segment appeals to different markets and, accordingly, require different technology and marketing strategies. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies provided earlier in this report.

The three reportable segments are:

•

Bank - The commercial banking segment involves making loans and generating deposits from individuals, businesses and charitable organizations. Loan fee income, service charges from deposit accounts, and other non-interest-related fees, such as fees for debit cards and ATM usage and fees for treasury management services, generate additional income for the Bank segment.

•

VNB Trust & Estate Services – VNB Trust & Estate Services offers corporate trustee services, trust and estate administration, IRA administration and custody services. Revenue for this segment is generated from administration, service and custody fees, as well as management fees that are derived from Assets Under Management. Investment management services currently are offered through in-house and third-party managers.

•

Masonry Capital - Masonry Capital offers investment management services for separately managed accounts and a private investment fund employing a value-based, catalyst-driven investment strategy. Revenue for this segment is generated from management fees that are derived from Assets Under Management and incentive income that is based on the investment returns generated on performance-based Assets Under Management. Effective April 1, 2024, the Company sold the membership interests in Masonry Capital Management, LLC to an officer of the Company. Subsequent to the date of sale, the Company will receive an annual revenue-share

amount for a period of six years. No expenses will be incurred by the Company related to Masonry Capital subsequent to the effective date of sale.

Segment information for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 is shown in the following tables (dollars in thousands). Note that asset information is not reported below, as the assets of VNB Trust & Estate Services are reported at the Bank level; also, assets specifically allocated to the lines of business other than the Bank are insignificant and are no longer provided to the chief operating decision maker.

Note 13. Sale of Masonry Capital Management, LLC

Effective April 1, 2024, the Company sold the membership interests in Masonry Capital Management, LLC to an officer of the Company. Subsequent to the date of sale, the Company will receive an annual revenue-share amount for a period of six years. No expenses will be incurred by the Company related to Masonry Capital subsequent to the effective date of sale. The sale of this business line did not meet the requirements for classification of discontinued operations, as the sale did not represent a strategic shift in the Company's operations or plans and will not have a major effect on the Company's future operations or financial results.

Note 14. Share Repurchase Plan

During the second quarter of 2023, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan of up to 5% of outstanding common stock. Repurchases may be made through open market purchases or in privately negotiated transactions. The actual timing, number, and value of shares repurchased under the plan will be determined by a committee of the Board.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, a total of 20,350 shares have been repurchased at an average price of $27.42.

Many of these factors and additional risks and uncertainties are described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and other reports filed from time to time by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These statements speak only as of the date made, and the Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements to reflect changes or events that may occur after this release.

OVERVIEW

Our primary financial goal is to maximize the Company’s earnings to increase long-term shareholder value. We monitor three key financial performance measures to determine our success in realizing this goal: 1) return on average assets, 2) return on average equity, and 3) net income per share.

•

ROAA for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was 1.05% compared to 1.46% realized in the same period in the prior year, as net income was lower in the current period as compared to the same period in the prior year. ROAA for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was 0.98% compared to 1.47% realized in the same period in the prior year.

•

ROAE for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was 11.07% compared to 15.98% realized in same period in the prior year. ROAE for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was 10.31% compared to 16.74% realized in the same period in the prior year.

•

Net income per diluted share was $0.77 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $1.05 for the same period in the prior year. Net income per diluted share was $1.45 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $2.13 for the same period in the prior year. The period over period declines were due to the decrease in net income, primarily as a result of increased cost of funds, as described below.

We also manage our capital levels through growth, quarterly cash dividends, share repurchases, when prudent, while maintaining a strong capital position. During the second quarter of 2023, the Board of Directors approved a share repurchase plan of up to 5% of outstanding common stock. Repurchases may be made through open market purchases or in privately negotiated transactions. The actual timing, number, and value of shares repurchased under the program will be determined by a committee of the Board. During the first half of 2024, 20,350 shares have been repurchased.

Refer to the Results of Operations, Non-GAAP Presentation section, later in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis for more discussion on these financial performance measures.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The accounting and reporting policies followed by the Company conform, in all material respects, to GAAP and to general practices within the financial services industry. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. While the Company bases estimates on historical experience, current information and other factors deemed to be relevant, actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Company considers accounting estimates to be critical to reported financial results if (i) the accounting estimate requires management to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain, and (ii) different estimates that management reasonably could have used for the accounting estimate in the current period, or changes in the accounting estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, could have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The Company’s accounting policies are fundamental to understanding management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations.

For additional information regarding critical accounting policies, refer to the Application of Critical Accounting Policies and Critical Accounting Estimates section under Item 7 in the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total assets

The total assets of the Company as of June 30, 2024 were $1.6 billion. This is a $72.2 million, or 4.4%, decrease from total assets reported at December 31, 2023 and a $10.3 million, or 0.6%, decrease from total assets reported at June 30, 2023. Decreases within overnight investments and the securities portfolio are being utilized to fund loan growth. In addition, outstanding borrowings were reduced by $36.5 million from the balances held as of December 31, 2023.

Securities

The Company’s investment securities portfolio as of June 30, 2024 totaled $291.4 million, a decrease of $137.6 million compared with the $429.0 million reported at December 31, 2023 and a $189.9 million decrease from the $481.3 million reported at June 30, 2023. The decrease from year-end and the prior year was part of a strategic decision to reinvest proceeds into higher yielding assets. At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the investment securities holdings represented 18.5% and 26.1% of the Company’s total assets, respectively.

The Company’s investment securities portfolio included restricted securities totaling $6.7 million as of June 30, 2024, compared to $8.4 million as of December 31, 2023 and $7.4 million as of June 30, 2023. These securities represent stock in the FRB, the FHLB, CBB Financial Corporation (the holding company for Community Bankers' Bank), and an investment in an SBA loan fund. The level of FRB and FHLB stock that the Company is required to hold is determined in accordance with membership guidelines provided by the Federal Reserve and the FHLB, respectively. Stock ownership in the bank holding company for Community Bankers’ Bank provides the Company with several benefits that are not available to non-shareholder correspondent banks. None of these restricted securities are traded on the open market and can only be redeemed by the respective issuer.

At June 30, 2024, the unrestricted securities portfolio totaled $284.7 million. The following table summarizes the Company's AFS securities by type as of June 30, 2024, December 31, 2023, and June 30, 2023 (dollars in thousands):

Total available for sale securities	$	284,698		100.0	%	$	420,595		100.0	%	$	473,868		100.0	%

The unrestricted securities are held primarily for earnings, liquidity, and asset/liability management purposes and are reviewed quarterly for possible impairments indicating credit losses. During this review, management analyzes the length of time the fair value has been below cost, the expectation for that security’s performance, the creditworthiness of the issuer, and the Company’s intent and ability to hold the security to recovery or maturity. These factors are analyzed for each individual security.

Loan portfolio

A management objective is to grow loan balances while maintaining the asset quality of the loan portfolio. The Company seeks to achieve this objective by maintaining rigorous underwriting standards coupled with regular evaluation of the creditworthiness of, and the designation of lending limits for, each borrowing relationship. The portfolio strategies include seeking industry, loan size, and loan type diversification to minimize credit exposure and originating loans in markets with which the Company is familiar. The Company's geographical trade area includes localities in Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia that are within a 100-mile radius of any office of the Company as well as the counties of Jefferson and Berkeley in West Virginia.

Total loans were $1.2 billion as of June 30, 2024, $1.1 billion as of December 31, 2023, and $973.3 million as of June 30, 2023. Loans as a percentage of total assets at June 30, 2024 were 73.6%, compared to 61.4% as of June 30, 2023. Loans as a percentage of deposits at June 30, 2024 were 84.3%, compared to 72.2% as of June 30, 2023.

Loan quality

The Company continues to experience extremely low levels of NPAs, as a result of strict underwriting standards and practices. However, the economic environment in the Company's lending footprint could be impacted as persistent inflation, higher interest rates, and other signs of recession materialize, which could increase NPAs in future periods.

Nonaccruals - Nonaccrual loans, comprised of ten loans to nine borrowers, totaled $2.4 million at June 30, 2024, compared to balances of $1.9 million and $1.2 million reported at December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively.

Past Due Loans - The Company had loans in its portfolio totaling $1.6 million, $880 thousand and $107 thousand, as of June 30, 2024, December 31, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively, that were 90 or more days past due and still accruing interest as the Company deemed them to be collectible. The past due balance as of June 30, 2024 is comprised of four loans totaling $1.5 million which are 100% government-guaranteed, and seven student loans totaling $63 thousand.

Troubled Loan Modifications - No loans were modified during the three months ended June 30, 2024. During the first quarter of 2024, one loan was modified for a borrower experiencing financial difficulties, totaling $703 thousand. As of June 30, 2024, the Company had TLMs totaling $1.2 million.

Management identifies potential problem loans through its periodic loan review process and considers potential problem loans as those loans classified as special mention, substandard, or doubtful.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The relationship of the ACL to total loans and nonaccrual loans appears below (dollars in thousands):


	June 30, 2024			December 31, 2023			June 30, 2023
Total loans	$	1,158,214		$	1,092,665		$	973,348
Nonaccrual loans	$	2,365		$	1,852		$	1,185
Allowance for credit losses	$	8,028		$	8,395		$	7,863
Nonaccrual loans to total loans		0.20	%		0.17	%		0.12	%
ACL to total loans		0.69	%		0.77	%		0.81	%
ACL to nonaccrual loans		339.45	%		453.29	%		663.54	%

The ACL on loans as a percentage of loans was 0.69% as of June 30, 2024, 0.77% as of December 31, 2023, and 0.81% as of June 30, 2023. The fair value mark that was allocated to the acquired loans was $21.3 million as of the Effective Date, with a remaining balance of $8.2 million as of June 30, 2024.

Recoveries of credit losses totaling $508 thousand and $19 thousand were recorded in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The following is a summary of the changes in the ACL for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 (dollars in thousands):


	2024			2023
Allowance for loan losses, December 31 of prior year	$	8,395		$	5,552
Impact of adoption of CECL, January 1, 2023		-			2,491
Charge-offs		(359	)		(322	)
Recoveries		500			161
Recovery of credit losses		(508	)		(19	)
Allowance for credit losses, June 30	$	8,028		$	7,863

For additional insight into management’s approach and methodology in estimating the ACL, please refer to the earlier discussion of “Allowance for Credit Losses” in Note 5 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. In addition, Note 5 includes details regarding the rollforward of the allowance by loan portfolio segments. The rollforward tables indicate the activity for loans that are charged-off, amounts received from borrowers as recoveries of previously charged-off loan balances, and the allocation by loan portfolio segment of the provision made during the period. The events that can positively impact the amount of allowance in a given loan segment include any one or all of the following: the recovery of a previously charged-off loan balance; the decline in the amount of classified or delinquent loans in a loan segment from the previous period, which most commonly occurs when these loans are repaid or are foreclosed; or when there are improvements in the ratios used to estimate the probability of loan losses. Improvements to the ratios could include lower historical loss rates, improvements to any of the qualitative factors mentioned above, or reduced loss expectations for individually-classified loans.

Management reviews the ACL on a quarterly basis to ensure it is adequate based upon the calculated probable losses inherent in the portfolio. Management believes the ACL was adequately provided for as of June 30, 2024 and acknowledges that the ACL may increase throughout the year as economic conditions may continue to deteriorate for the foreseeable future.

Premises and equipment

The Company’s premises and equipment, net of depreciation, as of June 30, 2024 totaled $15.8 million compared to $16.2 million as of December 31, 2023 and $17.6 million as of June 30, 2023, decreasing from prior year due to the sale of a branch facility in the first quarter of 2023. Premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation expense is computed by the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of assets. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. The costs of major renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Upon disposition, assets and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the books, and any resulting gain or loss is charged to income.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company occupied thirteen full-service banking facilities throughout Albemarle, Fauquier and Prince William counties and the cities of Charlottesville, Richmond, Manassas and Winchester, Virginia. The Company also operates a drive-through location at 301 East Water Street, Charlottesville, Virginia.

The five-story office building at 404 People Place, Charlottesville, Virginia, located in Albemarle County, also serves as the Company’s corporate headquarters and operations center. VNB Trust & Estate Services is located at 103 Third Street, SE, Charlottesville, Virginia.

Both the Arlington Boulevard facility in Charlottesville and the People Place facility in Albemarle County also contain office space that is currently under lease to tenants.

Leases

As of June 30, 2024, the Company has recorded $6.3 million of right-of-use assets and $6.1 million of lease liabilities, in accordance with ASU 2016-02 “Leases” (Topic 842). As of December 31, 2023, $6.7 million of right-of-use assets and $6.5 million of lease liabilities were included on the balance sheet. Right-of-use assets are assets that represent the Company’s right to use, or control the use of, a specified asset for the lease term, offset by the lease liability, which is the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from a lease, measured on a discounted basis. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company extended one branch lease for an additional five-year period.

Deposits

Deposit accounts represent the Company’s primary source of funds and are comprised of demand deposits, interest-bearing checking, money market, and savings accounts as well as time deposits. These deposits have been provided predominantly by individuals, businesses and charitable organizations in the Commonwealth of Virginia.

Total deposits as of June 30, 2024 were $1.4 billion, a decrease of $35.3 million, or 2.5%, compared to December 31, 2023, and an increase of $25.8 million, or 1.9%, compared to June 30, 2023 (dollars in thousands).

Noninterest-bearing demand deposits on June 30, 2024 were $357.9 million, representing 26.1% of total deposits. Interest-bearing transaction, money market, and savings accounts totaled $680.4 million, and represented 49.5% of total deposits at June 30, 2024. Collectively, noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing transaction, money market and savings accounts represented 75.6% of total deposit accounts at June 30, 2024. These account types are an excellent source of low-cost funding for the Company.

The Company also offers insured cash sweep deposit products. ICS® deposit balances of $15.3 million and $129.5 million are included in the interest checking accounts and in the money market and savings deposit accounts balances, respectively, in the table above, as of June 30, 2024. As of December 31, 2023, ICS® deposit balances of $28.4 million and $104.4 million are included in the interest checking accounts and in the money market and savings deposit account balances, respectively. All ICS® accounts consist of reciprocal balances for the Company’s customers. The Company currently holds no brokered or specialty CDs.

The remaining 24.4% of total deposits consisted of certificates of deposit and other time deposit accounts totaling $335.5 million at June 30, 2024, increasing over the balances as of December 31, 2023 as a result of several interest rate promotions that the Bank continued in the first half of 2024. Included in these deposit totals are CDARSTM, whereby depositors can obtain FDIC deposit insurance on account balances of up to $50 million. CDARSTM deposits totaled $6.8 million as of June 30, 2024 and $7.2 million as of December 31, 2023, all of which were reciprocal balances for the Company’s customers.

As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the estimated amounts of uninsured deposits were $318.6 million, or 23.2% and $360.0 million, or 25.5% of total deposits, respectively.

Federal funds purchased

The Company purchased $2.4 million in federal funds at June 30, 2024, $3.5 million at December 31, 2023 and $20.5 million at June 30, 2023. Any excess funds are sold on a daily basis in the federal funds market and Federal funds are purchased as needed to meet liquidity needs.

Borrowings

Borrowings, consisting primarily of FHLB advances, are additional sources of funds for the Company. The level of these borrowings is determined by various factors, including customer demand and the Company's ability to earn a favorable spread on the funds obtained. The Company curtailed $36.5 million of outstanding FHLB advances during the first six months of 2024, primarily utilizing proceeds from the maturities of securities, to assist in margin improvement.

As of June 30, 2024, based on the FHLB’s evaluation, the Company has an available credit position of $405 million, for which access can be negotiated based on multiple factors. The Company currently has a collateral dependent line of credit with the FHLB for $97.7 million, secured by commercial mortgages, with borrowings of $30.0 million as of June 30, 2024. As of December 31, 2023, there were $66.5 million in outstanding borrowings with the FHLB. At March 31, 2023, the Company had a $30.0 million letter of credit issued in favor of the Commonwealth of Virginia Department of the Treasury to secure public fund depository accounts. The letter of credit was secured under the collateral dependent line of credit described above and was retired in the second quarter of 2023.

Additional borrowing arrangements maintained by the Company include formal unsecured federal funds lines with six major regional correspondent banks for a total of $119.0 million and a secured line with the Federal Reserve discount window in the amount of $4.0 million, based on the market value of the collateral. See above for outstanding balances in Federal funds purchased as of the dates presented.

Junior Subordinated Debt

In 2006, a subsidiary of Fauquier, Fauquier Statutory Trust II, privately issued $4.0 million face amount of the trust’s Floating Rate Capital Securities in a pooled capital securities offering. Simultaneously, the trust used the proceeds of that sale to purchase $4.0 million principal amount of the Fauquier’s Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest Debentures due 2036. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, total capital securities were $3.5 million, as adjusted to fair value as of the date of the Merger. Historically, the interest rate on the capital security reset every three months at 1.70% above the then current three-month LIBOR and was paid quarterly. With the cessation of LIBOR, on September 13, 2023, the rate converted to a spread adjustment of 0.03% plus a margin of 1.70% above the three-month CME Term SOFR.

The Trust II issuance of capital securities and the respective subordinated debentures are callable at any time. The subordinated debentures are an unsecured obligation of the Company and are junior in right of payment to all present and future senior indebtedness of the Company. The capital securities are guaranteed by the Company on a subordinated basis.

Shareholders' equity and regulatory capital ratios

The following table displays the changes in shareholders' equity for the Company from December 31, 2023 to June 30, 2024 (dollars in thousands):


Equity, December 31, 2023	$	153,040
Net income		7,805
Other comprehensive loss		(2,944	)
Cash dividends declared		(3,542	)
Shares repurchased		(559	)
Adjustment for Masonry Capital distribution		(83	)
Equity increase due to expensing of stock options		59
Equity increase due to expensing of restricted stock		388
Equity, June 30, 2024	$	154,164

The Basel III capital rules require banks and bank holding companies to comply with the following minimum capital ratios: (i) a ratio of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 4.5%, plus a 2.5% “capital conservation buffer” (effectively resulting in a minimum ratio of common equity Tier 1 to risk-weighted assets of at least 7%); (ii) a ratio of Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 6.0%, plus the 2.5% capital conservation buffer (effectively resulting in a minimum Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5%); (iii) a ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets of at least 8.0%, plus the 2.5% capital conservation buffer (effectively resulting in a minimum total capital ratio of 10.5%); and (iv) a leverage ratio of 4%, calculated as the ratio of Tier 1 capital to balance sheet exposures plus certain off-balance sheet exposures (computed as the average for each quarter of the month-end ratios for the quarter).

The Company’s Tier 1, common equity Tier 1, total capital to risk-weighted assets, and leverage ratios were 17.83%, 17.83%, 18.64% and 11.47%, respectively, as of June 30, 2024, thus exceeding the minimum requirements. The Bank’s Tier 1, common equity Tier 1, total capital to risk-weighted assets, and leverage ratios were 17.65%, 17.65%, 18.46% and 11.36%, respectively, as of June 30, 2024, also exceeding the minimum requirements.

As of June 30, 2024, the Bank exceeded all of the following minimum capital ratios in order to be considered “well capitalized” under the PCA regulations, as revised: (i) a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of at least 6.5%; (ii) a Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of at least 8.0%; (iii) a total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio of at least 10.0%; and (iv) a leverage ratio of at least 5.0%.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Industry events and economic environment

Management of the Company continually monitors the impact of various global and national events on the Company's results of operations and financial condition, including inflation, changes in interest rates, and the political environment in light of the upcoming U.S. presidential election and other elections. The timing and impact of inflation, fluctuations in and volatility of interest rates, and the competitive landscape of deposits on our business and results of operations will depend on future developments, which are uncertain and unpredictable. In an effort to combat inflation, the FOMC increased the Federal Funds target rates throughout 2022 and 2023 to its current range of 5.25% to 5.50%. These developments contributed to the increased deposit costs that banks are experiencing. While inflation eased in 2023 and into 2024, it remains elevated over the FOMC’s long-run target of 2%. The FOMC has noted that it will carefully assess incoming data, the evolving outlook, and the balance of risks in considering any adjustments to the target range for the Federal Funds rate and that its assessments will take into account a wide range of information, including readings on labor market conditions, inflation pressures and inflation expectations, and financial and international developments. The FOMC further noted that it does not expect it will be appropriate to reduce the target range for the Federal Funds rate until the FOMC has gained greater confidence that inflation is moving sustainability toward 2%, but that the FOMC would be prepared to adjust the stance of monetary policy as appropriate if risks emerge that could impede the attainment of the FOMC’s goals. The higher-for-longer interest rate environment and heightened competition for deposits has led to a continued shift within deposit composition toward higher cost products, although the pace of movement has slowed in recent months.

Non-GAAP presentations

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to GAAP and prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, certain non-GAAP measures are used by management to supplement the evaluation of the Company’s performance. These include tangible book value per share, tangible equity and the following fully-taxable equivalent measures: net interest income-FTE, efficiency ratio-FTE and net interest margin-FTE. Interest on tax-exempt loans and securities is presented on a taxable-equivalent basis (which converts the income on loans and investments for which no income taxes are paid to the equivalent yield as if income taxes were paid) using the federal corporate income tax rate of 21 percent that was applicable for all periods presented.

Management believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures provides meaningful information about operating performance by enhancing comparability with other financial periods, other financial institutions, and between different sources of interest income. The non-GAAP measures used by management enhance comparability by excluding the effects of (1) items that do not reflect ongoing operating performance, (2) balances of intangible assets, including goodwill, that vary significantly between institutions, and (3) tax benefits that are not consistent across different opportunities for investment. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP-basis financial

statements, and other banks and bank holding companies may define or calculate these or similar measures differently. Net income is discussed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis on a GAAP basis unless noted as “non-GAAP.”

A reconcilement of the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company to evaluate and measure the Company's performance to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is presented below (dollars in thousands, except for the per share data):

Net income

Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $4.2 million, a $1.5 million decrease compared to $5.7 million reported for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Net income per diluted share was $0.77 for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $1.05 per diluted share for the same period in the prior year.

Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $7.8 million, compared to $11.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. Net income per diluted share was $1.45 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $2.13 for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

The decline in net income for each of the periods noted above is primarily the result of increased cost of funds, as discussed in more detail below.

Net interest income

Net interest margin (FTE) is the ratio of net interest income (FTE) to average earning assets for the period. The level of interest rates, together with the volume and mix of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, impact net interest income (FTE) and net interest margin (FTE).

Quarterly overview - Net interest income (FTE) for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was $11.3 million, a $2.5 million decrease compared to net interest income (FTE) of $13.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The net interest margin (FTE) of 3.04% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 was 79 bps lower than the 3.83% realized during the three months ended June 30, 2023. Interest expense increased $2.9 million, negatively impacting net interest income (FTE)

and net interest margin (FTE), compared to the same period in the prior year. Overall, the cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 100 bps period over period, from 174 bps to 274 bps. A $143.9 million increase in average balances of time deposit products contributed to the higher interest expense during the second quarter of 2024. The increase in average loan balances, from $940.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $1.1 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2024, positively impacted interest income by $3.1 million. This metric was however negatively impacted by the decrease in the average balances of securities, decreasing from $488.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2023 to $327.7 in the three months ended June 30, 2024, negatively impacting interest income (FTE) by $1.2 million period over period.

Year-to-date overview - Net interest income (FTE) for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $22.3 million, a $5.0 million decrease compared to net interest income (FTE) for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The net interest margin (FTE) of 2.98% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was 79 bps lower than the 3.77% realized during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Interest expense increased $7.5 million, negatively impacting net interest income (FTE) and net interest margin (FTE), compared to the same period in the prior year. Overall, the cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 133 bps period over period, from 141 bps to 274 bps. A $178.6 million increase in average balances of time deposit products contributed to the higher interest expense during the first half of 2024. The increase in average loan balances, from $936.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $1.1 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2024, positively impacted interest income by $5.4 million. This metric was however negatively impacted by the decrease in the average balances of securities, decreasing from $501.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2023 to $349.0 in the six months ended June 30, 2024, negatively impacting interest income (FTE) by $2.2 million period over period.

For the quarterly and year-to-date periods of 2024, the shift in the composition of earnings assets was intentional to shift the mix to higher yielding assets.

Refer to the Reconcilement of Non-GAAP Measures table within the Non-GAAP presentations section for a reconcilement of GAAP to non-GAAP net interest margin.

The following tables detail the average balance sheet, including an analysis of net interest income (FTE) for earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. These tables also include rate/volume analyses for these same periods (dollars in thousands).

Provision for credit losses

A recovery of provision for credit losses of $338 thousand was recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to a provision for loan losses of $261 thousand recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2023. The second quarter 2024 recovery of provision for credit losses was comprised of $519 thousand of recovery of provision for loan losses and $181 thousand of provision for losses on unfunded commitments.

A recovery of provision for credit losses of $360 thousand was recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2024 compared to a provision for loan losses of $13 thousand recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2023. The first half 2024 recovery of provision for credit losses was comprised of $508 thousand of recovery of provision for loan losses and $148 thousand of provision for losses on unfunded commitments.

An update to the peer data used in the Company's CECL model was performed during the three months ended June 30, 2024. This included a new group of peer banks, an adjustment to the k-factors used in the DCF models, and the election to mirror CRE non-owner occupied data for the multifamily pool based on the more appropriate and reasonable data fit. In addition, during the second quarter of 2024, a reallocation of qualitative factor weightings for each pool was performed based on assessment of applicability and significance in terms of anticipated effect of each factor on loss rates for each pool.

A significant portion of the increase in loan balances in the first half of 2024 was attributable to the purchase of government-guaranteed loans which do not require an ACL as they are 100% guaranteed, with balances increasing by $74.6 million from December 31, 2023 to June 30, 2024.

The increase in unfunded commitment reserve was almost entirely due to the increase in the reserve rate associated with the construction portfolio. In the second quarter of 2024, the construction pool was assigned a higher loss rate of 1.84%, compared to 1.22% in the first quarter of 2024. This increase was due to changes in economic data as well as qualitative factors. The increase is due to the inherent risks associated with construction, which have been elevated due to the interest rate environment and costs of labor and supplies associated with construction projects.

Further discussion of management’s assessment of the ACL is provided earlier in the report and in Note 5 – Allowance for Credit Losses, found in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. In management’s opinion, the ACL was adequately provided for at June 30, 2024. The ACL calculation, provision for credit losses, asset quality and collateral values may be significantly impacted by deterioration in economic conditions. Should economic conditions worsen, we could experience further increases in our required ACL and record additional provision for credit loss exposure.

Noninterest income

The components of noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are shown below (dollars in thousands):


	For the Three Months Ended					Variance

Total noninterest income	$	1,691		$	2,045	$	(354	)		-17.3	%

Noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2024 of $1.7 million was $354 thousand or 17.3% less than the amount recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2023, due primarily to a reduction in wealth management and debit/credit card and ATM fees, as a result of a reduction in number of accounts. The decline in wealth management fees associated with Masonry was offset by a reduction in Masonry-related expenses.

The components of noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are shown below (dollars in thousands):


	For the Six Months Ended						Variance
	June 30, 2024			June 30, 2023			$			%

Total noninterest income	$	3,869		$	4,321		$	(452	)		-10.5	%

Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2024 of $3.9 million was $452 thousand or 10.5% less than the amount recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2023, due primarily to the fact that the gain on the termination of the interest rate swap that occurred in the first quarter of 2023 was $81 thousand more than the gain on the early redemption of debt in the first quarter of 2024, coupled with the reduction in wealth management and debit/credit card and ATM fees, as noted above, as a result of a reduction in number of accounts.

Noninterest expense

The components of noninterest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are shown below (dollars in thousands):


	For the Three Months Ended				Variance
	June 30, 2024		June 30, 2023		$			%

Total noninterest expense	$	8,122	$	8,534	$	(412	)		-4.8	%

Noninterest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 of $8.1 million was $412 thousand or 4.8% lower than the quarter ended June 30, 2023. This decrease is primarily due to reduced compensation, occupancy and data processing costs, as a result of right-sizing the branch network from the Merger, and reduced marketing, advertising and promotion expense.

The components of noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 are shown below (dollars in thousands):


	For the Six Months Ended				Variance
	June 30, 2024		June 30, 2023		$			%

Total noninterest expense	$	16,941	$	17,347	$	(406	)		-2.3	%

Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 of $16.9 million was $406 thousand or 2.3% lower than the six months ended June 30, 2023. This decrease is primarily due to reduced compensation, occupancy and data processing costs, as a result of right-sizing the branch network from the Merger, and reduced marketing, advertising and promotion expense.

The efficiency ratio (FTE) was 62.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to 54.1% for the same quarter of 2023, due predominantly to the decrease in net interest income (FTE), as described above. The efficiency ratio of 64.8% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 deteriorated from the 55.1% realized in the six months ended June 30, 2023 for the same reason. Refer to the Reconcilement of Non-GAAP Measures table within the Non-GAAP presentations section for a reconcilement of GAAP to non-GAAP efficiency ratio.

Provision for Income Taxes

For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company provided $929 thousand and $1.3 million for Federal income taxes, respectively, resulting in effective income tax rates of 18.3% and 18.4%, respectively, declining due to the application of prior period tax adjustments. For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company provided $1.6 million and $2.6 million for Federal income taxes, respectively, resulting in effective income tax rates of 17.0% and 18.3%, respectively. For each period, the effective income tax rate differed from the U.S. statutory rate of 21% due to the recognition of low-income housing tax credits and the effect of tax-exempt income from municipal bonds and bank owned life insurance policies.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

The Company maintains “disclosure controls and procedures,” as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

In designing and evaluating its disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the disclosure controls and procedures are met. Additionally, in designing disclosure controls and procedures, management necessarily is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible disclosure controls and procedures. The design of any disclosure controls and procedures also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions.

Based on their evaluation as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
