Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Information

All statements contained in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q that do not directly and exclusively relate to historical facts constitute forward-looking statements. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “may,” “might,” “could,” “predict,” “potential,” “believe,” “expect,” “continue,” “will,” “anticipate,” “seek,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “projection,” “goal,” “target,” “outlook,” “aim,” “would,” “annualized,” “position” and “outlook,” or the negative of these words or other comparable words or phrases of a future or forward-looking nature. For example, our forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding our business plans, expectations, or opportunities for growth; our expense control initiatives and the results expected to be realized from those initiatives; our anticipated financial results, expenses, cash requirements and sources of liquidity; our capital allocation strategies and plans; and our anticipated future financial performance.

Unless we state otherwise or the context otherwise requires, references in this Form 10-Q to “we,” “our,” “us,” and the “Company” refer to CrossFirst Bankshares, Inc., and its consolidated subsidiaries. References in this Form 10-Q to “CrossFirst Bank” and the “Bank” refer to CrossFirst Bank, our wholly owned consolidated bank subsidiary.

These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, management’s belief, certain assumptions made by management, and financial trends that may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy or financial needs, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. Accordingly, we caution you that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions, estimates and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, actual results may prove to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including, without limitation: uncertain or unfavorable business or economic conditions and any regulatory responses thereto, including uncertainty and volatility in the financial markets, possible slowing or recessionary economic conditions and continuing or increasing inflation; geographic concentration of our markets; changes in market interest rates that affect the pricing of our products and our net interest income; our ability to effectively execute our growth strategy and manage our growth, including identifying, consummating and integrating suitable mergers, acquisitions or other business combinations, entering new lines of business or offering new or enhanced services or products; fluctuations in the fair value of our investments; our ability to successfully manage our credit risk, particularly in our commercial real estate, energy and commercial-based loan portfolios, and the sufficiency of our allowance for credit losses; declines in the values of the real estate and other collateral securing loans in our portfolio; an increase in non-performing assets; borrower and depositor concentration risks; risks associated with originating Small Business Administration loans; our dependence on our management team, including our ability to attract, hire and retain key employees and their client and community relationships; our ability to raise and maintain sufficient liquidity and capital; competition from banks, credit unions, FinTech companies and other financial services providers; the effectiveness of our risk management framework; accounting estimates; our ability to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting; our ability to keep pace with technological changes; system failures, service denials, cyber incidents or other failures, disruptions or security breaches; employee error, employee or client misconduct, fraud committed against the Company or our clients, or incomplete or inaccurate information about clients and counterparties; disruptions to our business caused by our third-party service providers; our ability to maintain our reputation; environmental liability or failure to comply with regulatory requirements affecting foreclosed properties; costs and effects of litigation, investigations or similar matters to which we may be subject; risk exposure from transactions with financial counterparties; severe weather, natural disasters, pandemics or other health crises, acts of war or terrorism, climate change and responses thereto, or other external events; compliance with (and changes in) laws, rules, regulations, interpretations or policies relating to or affecting financial institutions, including stringent capital requirements, higher FDIC insurance premiums and assessments, consumer protection laws and privacy laws and accounting, tax, trade, monetary and fiscal matters, including the policies of the Federal Reserve and as a result of government initiatives; systemic risks across the banking industry associated with the soundness of other financial institutions; volatility in our stock price and other risks associated with our common stock; changes in our dividend or share repurchase policies and practices; or other external events. Additional discussion of these and other risk factors can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (“2023 Form 10-K”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 29, 2024, and in our other filings with the SEC.

These forward-looking statements are made as of the date hereof, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes in our business, results of operations or financial condition over time, except as required by law. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.

CROSSFIRST BANKSHARES, INC.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements - Unaudited

Note 1:   Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Organization and Nature of Operations

CrossFirst Bankshares, Inc. (“Bankshares”) is a bank holding company whose principal activities are the ownership and management of its wholly-owned subsidiary, CrossFirst Bank (the “Bank”). In addition, the Bank has three subsidiaries, including CrossFirst Investments, Inc. (“CFI”), which holds investments in marketable securities, CFBSA I, LLC and CFBSA II, LLC.

The Bank is engaged in providing a full range of banking and financial services to individual and corporate clients primarily through its branches in: (i) Leawood, Kansas; (ii) Wichita, Kansas; (iii) Kansas City, Missouri; (iv) Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; (v) Tulsa, Oklahoma; (vi) Dallas, Texas; (vii) Fort Worth, Texas; (viii) Frisco, Texas; (ix) Phoenix, Arizona; (x) Tucson, Arizona; (xi) Colorado Springs, Colorado; (xii) Denver, Colorado; and (xiii) Clayton, New Mexico.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements serve to update the CrossFirst Bankshares, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and include the consolidated accounts of Bankshares, the Bank, CFI, CFBSA I, LLC and CFBSA II, LLC (together, referred to herein as the “Company”). The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and where applicable, with general practices in the banking industry or guidelines prescribed by bank regulatory agencies. However, they may not include all information and notes necessary to constitute a complete set of financial statements under GAAP applicable to annual periods and accordingly should be read in conjunction with the financial information contained in the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications of prior years' amounts are made whenever necessary to conform to current period presentation. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or any other interim period. All amounts are in thousands, except share data, or as otherwise noted.

GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. By their nature, estimates are based on judgment and available information. Management has made significant estimates in certain areas, such as the fair values of financial instruments, and the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”). Because of the inherent uncertainties associated with any estimation process and future changes in market and economic conditions, it is possible that actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

The Company's significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements are disclosed in Note 1 of the audited financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2023 and are contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for that period. There have been no significant changes to the application of significant accounting policies since December 31, 2023.

Related Party Transactions

The Bank extends credit and receives deposits from related parties. In management’s opinion, the loans and deposits were made in the ordinary course of business and made on similar terms as those prevailing at the time with other persons. Related party loans totaled $10 million and $12 million, while related party deposits totaled $105 million and $106 million, at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Related parties also owned $6 million of the

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting pronouncements not yet adopted by the Company

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires enhanced disclosures on both an annual and interim basis about significant segment expenses, including for companies with only one reportable segment. This ASU is effective on a retrospective basis for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures which requires updates to rate reconciliation disclosures and information on income taxes paid on an annual basis. This ASU is effective on a prospective basis with retrospective application permitted for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company is evaluating the impact the adoption of this ASU will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Management evaluated all of the AFS securities in an unrealized loss position at March 31, 2024. The unrealized losses in the Company’s investment portfolio were primarily caused by interest rate changes. The Company does not intend to sell the investments, and it is not more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis. The Company did not record any credit losses on AFS securities during the three months ended March 31, 2024 or the year ended December 31, 2023.

Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the rights to call or prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties.

Yields are calculated based on amortized cost using 30/360 day basis. Tax-exempt securities are not tax effected.

Equity Securities

Equity securities consist of $6.9 million of private equity investments. Equity securities are included in other assets on the consolidated statements of financial condition.

The Company elected a measurement alternative for its private equity investments that did not have a readily determinable fair value and did not qualify for the practical expedient to estimate fair value using the net asset value per share. A cost basis was calculated for the equity investments. The recorded balance will adjust for any impairment or any observable price changes for an identical or similar investment of the same issuer. No such events occurred during the three-month period ended March 31, 2024.

Accrued interest of $31 million and $30 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, presented in “interest receivable” on the consolidated statements of financial condition is excluded from the amortized cost basis disclosed in the above table.

The Company aggregates the loan portfolio by similar credit risk characteristics. The loan segments are described in additional detail below:

Commercial and Industrial - The category includes loans and lines of credit to commercial and industrial clients for use in property, plant, and equipment purchases, business operations, expansions and for working capital needs. Loan terms typically require amortizing payments that decrease the outstanding loan balance while the lines of credit typically require interest-only payments with maturities ranging from one- to three-years. Lines of credit allow the borrower to draw down and repay the line of credit based on the borrower’s cash flow needs. Repayment is primarily from the cash flow of a borrower’s principal business operation. Credit risk is driven by creditworthiness of a borrower and the economic conditions that impact the cash flow stability from business operations.
Energy - The category includes loans to oil and natural gas clients for use in financing working capital needs, exploration and production activities, and acquisitions. The loans are repaid primarily from the conversion of crude oil and natural gas to cash. Credit risk is driven by creditworthiness of a borrower and the economic conditions that impact the cash flow stability from business operations. Energy loans are typically collateralized with the underlying oil and gas reserves.

14

Table of Contents

Commercial Real Estate - Owner-Occupied - The category includes relationships where the Company is usually the primary provider of financial services for the company and/or the principals and the primary source of repayment is through the cash flows generated by the borrowers’ business operations. Owner-occupied commercial real estate loans are typically secured by a first lien mortgage on real property plus assignments of all leases related to the properties. Credit risk may be impacted by the creditworthiness of a borrower, property values and the local economies in the borrower’s market areas.
Commercial Real Estate – Non-Owner-Occupied - The category includes loans that typically involve larger principal amounts and repayment of these loans is generally dependent on the leasing income generated from tenants. These are viewed primarily as cash flow loans and secondarily as loans secured by real estate.

Additionally, the category includes construction and land development loans that are based upon estimates of costs and estimated value of the completed project. Independent appraisals and a financial analysis of the developers and property owners are completed. Sources of repayment include secondary market permanent loans, sales of developed property or an interim loan commitment from the Company until permanent financing is obtained. These loans are higher risk than other real estate loans due to their ultimate repayment being sensitive to interest rate changes, general economic conditions, and the availability of long-term financing.

The category also includes loans that are secured by multifamily properties. Repayment of these loans is primarily dependent on occupancy rates and rental income.

Credit risk for non-owner-occupied commercial real estate loans may be impacted by the creditworthiness of a borrower, property values and the local economies in the borrower’s market areas.

Residential Real Estate - The category includes loans that are generally secured by owner-occupied 1-4 family residences. Repayment of these loans is primarily dependent on the personal income and credit rating of the borrowers. We also offer open- and closed-ended home equity loans, which are loans generally secured by second lien positions on residential real estate. Credit risk in these loans can be impacted by economic conditions within or outside the borrower’s market areas that might impact either property values or a borrower’s personal income.
Consumer - The category includes personal lines of credit and various term loans such as automobile loans and loans for other personal purposes. Repayment is primarily dependent on the personal income and credit rating of the borrowers. Credit risk is driven by consumer economic factors (such as unemployment and general economic conditions in the borrower’s market area) and the creditworthiness of a borrower.

Risk Ratings

The Company uses a series of grades which reflect its assessment of the credit quality of loans based on an analysis of the borrower's financial condition, liquidity and ability to meet contractual debt service requirements. Risk ratings are established for loans at origination and are monitored on an ongoing basis. The rating assigned to a loan reflects the risks posed by the borrower’s expected performance and the transaction’s structure. Performance metrics used to determine a risk rating include, but are not limited to, cash flow adequacy, liquidity, and collateral. A description of the loan risk ratings follows:

Pass - The category includes loans that are considered satisfactory. The category includes borrowers that generally maintain good liquidity and financial condition, or the credit is currently protected with sales trends remaining flat or declining. Most ratios compare favorably with industry norms and Company policies. Debt is programmed and timely repayment is expected.
Special Mention - The category includes borrowers that generally exhibit adverse trends in operations or an imbalanced position in their balance sheet that has not reached a point where repayment is jeopardized. Credits are currently protected but, if left uncorrected, the potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the

15

Table of Contents

repayment prospects for the credit or in the Company’s credit or lien position at a future date. These credits are not adversely classified and do not expose the Company to enough risk to warrant adverse classification.
Substandard - The category includes borrowers that generally exhibit well-defined weakness(es) that jeopardize repayment. Credits are inadequately protected by the current worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged. A distinct possibility exists that the Company will sustain some loss if deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard assets, does not have to exist in individual assets classified substandard. Substandard loans include both performing and non-performing loans and are broken out in the table below.
Doubtful - The category includes borrowers that exhibit weaknesses inherent in a substandard credit and characteristics that these weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable or improbable based on existing facts, conditions, and values. Because of reasonably specific pending factors, which may work to the advantage and strengthening of the assets, classification as a loss is deferred until its more exact status may be determined.
Loss - Credits that are considered uncollectible or of such little value that their continuance as a bankable asset is not warranted.

Table of Contents

Non-accrual loans are loans for which the Company does not record interest income. The accrual of interest on loans is discontinued at the time the loan is 90 days past due unless the credit is well secured and in process of collection. Past due status is based on contractual terms of the loan. In all cases, loans are placed on non-accrual or charged off at an earlier date, if collection of principal or interest is considered doubtful. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured. The following table presents the Company’s non-accrual loans by loan segments at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Interest income recognized on non-accrual loans was zero during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company’s CECL committee meets at least quarterly to oversee the ACL methodology. The committee estimates the ACL using relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. The ACL represents the Company’s current estimate of lifetime credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio at the statement of financial condition date. The ACL is adjusted for expected prepayments when appropriate and excludes expected extensions, renewals, and modifications.

The ACL is the sum of three components: (i) asset specific / individual loan reserves; (ii) quantitative (formulaic or pooled) reserves; and (iii) qualitative (judgmental) reserves.

Asset Specific - When unique qualities cause a loan’s exposure to loss to be inconsistent with the pooled reserves, the loan is individually evaluated. Individual reserves are calculated for loans that are risk-rated substandard and on non-accrual and loans that are risk-rated doubtful or loss that are greater than a defined dollar threshold. Reserves on asset specific loans may be based on collateral, for collateral-dependent loans, or on quantitative and qualitative factors, including expected cash flow, market sentiment, and guarantor support.

21

Table of Contents

Quantitative - The Company used the cohort method, which identifies and captures the balance of a pool of loans with similar risk characteristics as of a particular time to form a cohort. The cohort is then tracked for losses over the remaining life of loans or until the pool is exhausted. The Company used a lookback period of approximately six-years to establish the cohort population. By using the historical data timeframe, the Company can establish a historical loss factor for each of its loan segments.

Qualitative – The Company uses qualitative factors to adjust the historical loss factors for current conditions. The Company primarily uses the following qualitative factors:

The nature and volume of changes in risk ratings;
The volume and severity of past due loans;
The volume of non-accrual loans;
The nature and volume of the loan portfolio, including the existence, growth, and effect of any concentrations of credit;
Changes in the Institute of Supply Management’s Purchasing Manager Indices (“PMI”) for services and manufacturing;
Changes in collateral values;
Changes in lending policies, procedures, and quality of loan reviews;
Changes in lending staff; and
Changes in competition, legal and regulatory environments

In addition to the current condition qualitative adjustments, the Company uses the Federal Reserve’s unemployment forecast to adjust the ACL based on forward-looking guidance. The Federal Reserve’s unemployment forecast extends three years and is eventually reverted to the mean of six percent by year 10.

The following table presents the activity in the allowance for credit losses and allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures by loan segment for the three months ended March 31, 2024:

The ACL balance increased $1.4 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2024 and included provision of $2.9 million due to loan growth and an increase in specific reserves. Net charge-offs were $1.5 million, primarily due to charge-offs on two commercial and industrial loans, two commercial real estate – non-owner-occupied loans and one credit card account. One of the charge-offs on commercial real estate – non-owner-occupied loans was a partial charge-off of a commercial construction non-accrual credit that moved to foreclosed assets held for sale during the quarter. The reserve on unfunded commitments decreased $1.2 million due to a decrease in unfunded commitments.

Loan Modifications

The Company considers loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties to be troubled loans and is required to evaluate whether loan modifications represent a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. Such troubled debt modifications (“TDMs”) may include principal forgiveness, interest rate reductions, other-than-insignificant-payment delays, term extensions or any combination thereof.

The Company modified 12 loans that are considered TDMs in the preceding twelve months ended March 31, 2024, including six loans in the current quarter, with an amortized cost basis at March 31, 2024 of $15.3 million to facilitate repayment. The following table presents, by loan segment, the amortized cost basis as of the date shown for modified loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty:

Table of Contents

The Company had no TDMs that were modified and had defaulted on their modified terms during the three months ended March 31, 2024. For purposes of this disclosure, the Company considers “default” to mean 90 days or more past due on principal or interest. The allowance for credit losses related to TDMs on non-accrual status is determined by individual evaluation, including collateral adequacy, using the same process as loans on non-accrual status which are not classified as TDMs.

The following schedule presents the financial effect of the modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty as of March 31, 2024:

Allowance for Credit Losses on Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures

The Company estimates expected credit losses for off-balance sheet credit exposures unless the obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted as a provision (release) for credit loss expense. The estimate is calculated for each loan segment and includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of the expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life. For each pool of contractual obligations expected to be funded, the Company uses the reserve rate established for the related loan pools. The $5 million and $6 million allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively, are included in “interest payable and other liabilities” on the statements of financial condition.

The following categories of off-balance sheet credit exposures have been identified:

Loan commitments – include revolving lines of credit, non-revolving lines of credit, and loans approved that are not yet funded. Risks inherent to revolving lines of credit often are related to the susceptibility of an individual or business experiencing unpredictable cash flow or financial troubles, thus leading to payment default. The primary risk associated with non-revolving lines of credit is the diversion of funds for other expenditures.
Letters of credit – are primarily established to provide assurance to the beneficiary that the applicant will perform certain obligations arising out of a separate transaction between the beneficiary and applicant. If the obligation is not met, it gives the beneficiary the right to draw on the letter of credit.

Note 4:   Leases

The Company’s leases primarily include bank branches located in Kansas City, Missouri; Tulsa, Oklahoma; Dallas, Texas; Frisco, Texas; Fort Worth, Texas; Phoenix, Arizona; Denver, Colorado; and Colorado Springs, Colorado. The remaining lease terms on these branch leases range from less than two years to 18 years with certain options to renew. Renewal terms can extend the lease term between five years and 20 years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion. When it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise its option to renew or extend the lease term, that option is included in the estimated value of the right of use (“ROU”) asset and lease liability. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

25

Table of Contents

As of March 31, 2024, the Company recognized one finance lease and the remaining Company leases were classified as operating leases.

The ROU asset is included in “Other assets” on the consolidated statements of financial condition, and was $29 million and $30 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Certain adjustments to the ROU asset may be required for items such as initial direct costs paid or incentives received. The lease liability is located in “Interest payable and other liabilities” on the consolidated statements of financial condition and was $33 million and $34 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

As of March 31, 2024, the remaining weighted-average lease term was 10.5 years, and the weighted-average discount rate was 2.77% utilizing the Company’s incremental Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) borrowing rate for borrowings of a similar term at the date of lease commencement.

The following table presents components of operating lease expense in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2024 and 2023:

Supplemental cash flow information 

Operating cash flows paid for operating leases included in the measurement of lease liabilities were $1.0 million and $0.9 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. Operating cash flows paid for finance lease amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities were $0.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company did not record any ROU assets that were exchanged for operating lease liabilities.

Note 5:   Goodwill and Core Deposit Intangible

Goodwill is measured as the excess of the fair value of consideration paid over the fair value of net assets acquired. In accordance with GAAP, the Company performs annual tests to identify impairment of goodwill and more frequently if events or circumstances indicate a potential impairment may exist. No goodwill impairment was recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Note 6:   Derivatives and Hedging

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions, including interest rate, liquidity, and credit risk. The Company uses derivative financial instruments as part of its risk management activities to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company uses interest rate derivatives to add stability to interest income and expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company may utilize interest rate swaps, including forwards, interest rate caps, floors, collars, corridors and swaptions as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company utilized interest rate swaps and a collar to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable-rate debt and loan assets. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Interest rate collars designated as cash flow hedges involve payments of variable-rate amounts if interest rates rise above the cap strike rate on the contract and the receipt of variable-rate amounts if interest rates fall below the floor strike rate on the contract. During the first quarter of 2024, two cash flow hedges matured and two cash flow hedges were terminated. Derivatives that qualify as cash flow hedges and are designated as such include one instrument with a total notional value of $250 million at March 31, 2024, and five instruments with a total notional value of $340 million at December 31, 2023.

For derivatives that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk and are designated as such, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss (“AOCI”) and subsequently reclassified into interest income or expense in the same period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported

27

Table of Contents

in AOCI related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest income and expense as interest payments are received and made on the Company’s variable-rate assets and debt. The Company currently estimates that $3.3 million will be reclassified as a net decrease to net interest income during the next twelve months. These reclassifications are for active hedges, as well as amounts related to five hedged swaps that were terminated in 2022 and the two hedged swaps terminated in the first quarter of 2024, that continue to be recognized based on the original effective dates of the hedged swaps.

The Company is hedging its exposure to the variability in future cash flows for forecasted transactions over a maximum period of 2.8 years.

Non-designated Hedges

Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and result from a service provided to clients. The Company executes interest rate swaps with clients to facilitate their respective risk management strategies. Those interest rate swaps are simultaneously hedged by offsetting derivatives that the Company executes with a third-party, such that the Company minimizes its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. Interest rate derivatives associated with this program do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements and changes in the fair value of both the client derivatives and the offsetting derivatives are recognized directly in earnings.

Swap fees earned upon origination and credit valuation adjustments that represent the risk of a counterparty’s default are reported on the consolidated statements of operations as swap fee income, net. The effect of the Company’s derivative financial instruments gain (loss) is reported on the consolidated statements of cash flows within “other assets” and “other liabilities”.

The Company had 46 swaps outstanding with an aggregate notional amount of $323 million and $307 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Note 9:   Regulatory Matters

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Management believes that, as of March 31, 2024, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

The capital rules require the Company to maintain a 2.5% capital conservation buffer with respect to Common Equity Tier I capital, Tier I capital to risk-weighted assets, and total capital to risk-weighted assets, which is included in the column “Required to be Considered Adequately Capitalized” within the table below. A financial institution with a conservation buffer of less than the required amount is subject to limitations on capital distributions, including dividend payments and stock repurchases, as well as certain discretionary bonus payments to executive officers.

The Company and the Bank opted to exclude AOCI from the regulatory capital calculations. As a result, changes in AOCI, net of tax, do not impact the Company’s or Bank’s regulatory capital ratios.

Note 11:   Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair value measurements must maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. There is a hierarchy of three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

Level 1

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2

Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3

Unobservable inputs supported by little or no market activity and significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Recurring Measurements

The following list presents the assets and liabilities recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the fair value measurements fall at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Available-for-Sale Securities

Where quoted market prices are available in an active market, securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available, then fair values are estimated by using quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics or independent asset pricing services and pricing models, the inputs of which are market-based or independently sourced market parameters, including, but not limited to, yield curves, interest rates, volatilities, prepayments, defaults, cumulative loss projections and cash flows.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies and inputs used for assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis and recognized in the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition, as well as the general classification of such assets pursuant to the valuation hierarchy. For assets classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the process used to develop the reported fair value is described below.

Collateral-Dependent Impaired Loans, Net of ACL - The estimated fair value of collateral-dependent loans is based on the appraised fair value of the collateral, less estimated cost to sell. If the fair value of the collateral is below the loan’s amortized cost, the ACL is netted against the loan balance. Collateral-dependent loans are classified within Level 3 of

33

Table of Contents

the fair value hierarchy. The Company considers the appraisal or evaluation as the starting point for determining fair value and then considers other factors and events in the environment that may affect the fair value. Appraisals of the collateral underlying collateral dependent loans are obtained when the loan is determined to be collateral dependent and subsequently as deemed necessary by the Office of the Chief Credit Officer. Appraisals are reviewed for accuracy and consistency by management. Appraisers are selected from the list of approved appraisers maintained by management. The appraised values are reduced by discounts to consider lack of marketability and estimated costs to sell if repayment or satisfaction of the loan is dependent on the sale of the collateral. These discounts and estimates are developed by the Office of the Chief Credit Officer by comparison to historical results.

Foreclosed Assets Held-for-Sale - The fair value of foreclosed assets-held-for-sale is based on the appraised fair value of the collateral, less estimated cost to sell.

Unobservable (Level 3) Inputs

First Quarter 2024 Highlights

During the first quarter ended March 31, 2024, we accomplished the following:

Operating revenue(1) improved $0.8 million from the fourth quarter of 2023 and decreased $0.4 million from the first quarter of 2023
Grew loans $121 million, or 2%, for the quarter and 8% annualized
Grew deposits $96 million, or 1%, for the quarter and 6% annualized
Credit quality remained stable with non-performing assets decreasing to 0.27% of total assets and annualized net charge-offs representing 0.10% of average loans
Returned capital to stockholders of $1.5 million during the quarter via share buybacks at a weighted average price of $13.10 per share
Continued to build capital with total risk-based capital increasing to 11.4% and common equity Tier 1 capital increasing to 10.2%
Grew book value per common share 1% to $14.47 at March 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023; tangible book value per common share(2) also grew 1% to $13.70 during the same period

Results of Operations

Income from Operations

Net income totaled $18.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted common share, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 compared to $16.1 million, or $0.33 per diluted common share, during the three months ended March 31, 2023. Compared to the first quarter of 2023, the quarter’s results reflect higher non-interest income in addition to lower provision expense and non-interest expense partially offset by lower net interest income.

Return on average assets was 1.00% for the three months ended March 31, 2024. Return on average common equity was 10.36% for the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Net Interest Income

Our profitability depends in substantial part on our net interest income, which is discussed below on a GAAP and FTE basis. We believe providing disclosure on an FTE basis provides for improved comparability between the various earning assets. Changes in interest income and interest expense result from changes in average balances (volume) of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as changes in interest yields.

The following table presents, for the periods indicated, average statement of financial condition information, interest income, interest expense and the corresponding average yield and rates paid:

Net interest income decreased $1.6 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023. Net interest income – FTE decreased $1.9 million for the same comparative period as the benefits from higher average earning assets and one additional day were more than offset by a 45 basis point reduction in net interest margin - FTE.

The FTE yield on earning assets increased 64 basis points from the first quarter of 2023 to the first quarter of 2024 due to stronger loan yields and higher yields on securities. The cost of a hedge that was used to manage interest rate risk lowered the earning asset yield by seven basis points. The cost of funds increased 1.20% over the same period due to pricing pressure on deposits, client migration into higher cost deposit products, as well as the reduction in average non-interest-bearing deposits compared to the prior year.

Average earning assets totaled $7.2 billion for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024, resulting in an increase of $0.6 billion for the period, compared to the same period in 2023. The increase was driven by higher average loan and investment balances, partially offset by lower average cash balances.

The Company currently anticipates net interest margin - FTE to be in a range of 3.20% to 3.25% for 2024.

Provision expense of $1.7 million for the first quarter of 2024 was primarily driven by loan growth and an increase in specific reserves and was partially offset by a $1.2 million decrease in the reserve for unfunded commitments. Provision expense of $4.4 million for the first quarter of 2023 was driven by loan growth partially offset by improvement in qualitative factors, in part due to continued improvement in credit quality, and a $0.6 million decrease in the reserve for unfunded commitments.

The changes in non-interest income for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 compared to the corresponding period in 2023 were driven primarily by increases in service charges and fees on client accounts, ATM and credit card interchange income, gain on sale of loans and other non-interest income. The increase in service charges and fees on client accounts was driven by new clients as well as an increase in client activity. The increase in ATM and

39

Table of Contents

credit card interchange income was due to higher interchange income from an increase in spend volume and higher foreign ATM transaction volume. The increase in gain on sale of loans was due to acquired SBA lending capabilities in late 2022. The increase in other non-interest income was primarily due to higher client-related fees.

Non-interest expense for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 decreased $0.6 million compared to the same period in 2023. Excluding acquisition-related costs of $1.5 million in the first quarter of 2023, non-interest expense in the first quarter of 2024 increased $0.9 million compared to the prior year first quarter. On an adjusted basis, salary and employee benefit costs increased due to merit increases and higher incentives. Occupancy costs increased due to new locations in the high-growth Dallas-Fort Worth market and from our acquisition of Canyon Bancorporation, Inc. and Canyon Community Bank, N.A. in Tucson, Arizona. Professional fees decreased due to reduced project expenses. Deposit insurance premiums increased due to growth in assets and a higher assessment rate. Other non-interest expense decreased primarily because of lower travel expenses and a decrease in credit card fees.

Our GAAP efficiency ratio for the first quarter of 2024 was 60.31% and our adjusted efficiency ratio – FTE was 58.31% compared to 60.81% and 56.42% on a reported and adjusted basis for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for a reconciliation of our adjusted efficiency ratio – FTE to our GAAP efficiency ratio. We currently expect our non-interest expense to be in a range of $36 million to $37 million per quarter for the remainder of 2024.

Income Taxes

Our income tax expense differs from the amount that would be calculated using the federal statutory tax rate, primarily from investments in tax advantaged assets, such as bank-owned life insurance and tax-exempt municipal securities, state tax credits and permanent tax differences from stock-based compensation.

Table of Contents

The tax-exempt benefit diminishes as the Company’s ratio of taxable income to tax-exempt income increases. We currently anticipate the effective tax rate to remain in the range of 20% to 22% for the remainder of 2024. Our income tax and effective tax rate is presented below for the periods indicated:

Discussion and Analysis - Financial Condition

Total assets were $7.5 billion at March 31, 2024 compared to $7.4 billion at December 31, 2023, an increase of $0.1 billion, or 1%. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $48 million, or 19%, and investment securities increased $20 million, or 3%, from December 31, 2023. Loans increased $121 million, or 2%, from December 31, 2023, and the allowance for credit losses increased $1 million to $75 million at March 31, 2024. Total deposits increased $96 million to $6.6 billion at March 31, 2024, compared to December 31, 2023. Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances totaled $78 million and were flat compared to December 31, 2023.

Investment Portfolio

The primary objective of our investment portfolio is to ensure adequate liquidity, including serving as a contingent, on-balance sheet source of liquidity. In addition, we manage the portfolio in a manner that optimizes earnings, manages credit and interest rate risk, and meets pledging and regulatory capital requirements. As of March 31, 2024, our portfolio was 100% available-for-sale and totaled $787 million, an increase of $20 million from December 31, 2023.

The increase in the investment portfolio was driven by the purchase of $40 million in mortgage-backed securities and $5 million in collateralized mortgage obligations. The increase was partially offset by an increase of $11 million in the unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities and $13 million of paydowns and maturities in investment securities. Our current investment strategy includes reducing the concentration in municipal investments, investing in lower risk-weighted assets and restructuring the portfolio to increase liquidity and provide more balanced cash flow. For additional information, including information regarding other securities owned by the Company, see “Note 2: Securities” in the notes to consolidated financial statements – unaudited.

Charge-offs and Recoveries

Net charge-offs were $1.5 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 and were primarily due to charge-offs on two commercial and industrial loans, two commercial real estate – non-owner-occupied loans and one credit card account. One of the charge-offs on commercial real estate – non-owner-occupied loans was a partial charge-off of a commercial construction non-accrual credit that moved to foreclosed assets held for sale during the quarter. The table below provides the ratio of net charge-offs (recoveries) to average loans outstanding based on our loan categories for the periods indicated:

Non-performing Assets and Other Asset Quality Metrics

Non-performing assets include: (i) non-performing loans - includes non-accrual loans, loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing; (ii) foreclosed assets held for sale; (iii) repossessed assets; and (iv) impaired debt securities.

Non-performing assets decreased $4.4 million during the quarter to $20.4 million at March 31, 2024. The decrease was due to client principal reductions, partial charge-offs on non-accrual loans, and two credits that were 90+ days past due and still accruing at December 31, 2023, which were brought current during the first quarter of 2024. Additionally, one commercial construction credit that was in non-accrual loans at December 31, 2023 was moved to foreclosed assets held for sale during the first quarter of 2024. The non-performing assets to total assets ratio decreased from 0.34% at December 31, 2023 to 0.27% at March 31, 2024. Annualized net charge-offs were 0.10% for the first quarter of 2024 compared to 0.12% in the quarter ended December 31, 2023 and the first quarter of 2023.

The Company continues to monitor the U.S. economic indicators, including the inflation rate, the unemployment rate, commodity prices, interest rates, and potential supply chain disruptions and the impact they may have on the Company’s markets, clients, and prospects. The Company is monitoring the impact of the interest rate environment on the commercial real estate market and enterprise and leverage loans that is currently partially mitigated by low debt-to-equity ratios. As of March 31, 2024, the Company did not identify any systemic issues within its loan portfolio that would materially affect the credit quality of the loan portfolio. However, there could be some risk rating migration in certain sectors of the commercial real estate portfolio in the future as many projects are faced with higher interest rates, operating costs, and property taxes.

Deposits and Other Borrowings

At March 31, 2024, our deposits totaled $6.6 billion, an increase of $96 million or 1% from December 31, 2023. The increase included a $126 million increase in money market, NOW and savings deposits and $6 million in time deposits, partially offset by a decrease of $36 million in non-interest-bearing deposits. Approximately 77% of the increase in money market, NOW and savings deposits was from new and existing client money, with the remainder representing an increase in wholesale funding. Other borrowings include FHLB advances, SBA loan secured borrowings, and our trust preferred security and totaled $87 million at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

The following table sets forth the maturity of time deposits as of March 31, 2024:

As of March 31, 2024, the Company had approximately $2.6 billion of uninsured deposits, which is an estimated amount based on the same methodologies and assumptions used for the Bank’s regulatory reporting requirements. Excluding pass-thru accounts where clients have deposit insurance at the correspondent financial institution, our uninsured deposits were $2.2 billion, or 33% of total deposits as of March 31, 2024. The average client account balance as of March 31, 2024 was less than $250 thousand for both individual accounts and business accounts in total after excluding pass-through and insured cash sweep deposits. We have geographic and industry diversity within our deposit base as the majority of our deposits are located in our footprint states of Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas, Missouri, Arizona, Colorado and New Mexico. The Company believes that its current capital ratios and liquidity are sufficient to mitigate the risks of uninsured deposits.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

We manage our liquidity based upon factors that include the level and quality of capital and our overall financial condition, the trend and volume of problem assets, our balance sheet risk exposure, the level of deposits as a percentage of total loans, the amount of non-deposit funding used to fund assets, the availability of unused funding sources and off-balance sheet obligations, the availability of assets to be readily converted into cash without undue loss, the amount of cash and liquid securities we hold, and other factors. We also conduct contingency funding plan stress tests at least annually to assess potential liquidity outflows or funding problems resulting from economic disruptions, volatility in the financial markets, unexpected credit events or other significant occurrences deemed potentially problematic by management. The Company’s liquidity strategy is to maintain adequate, but not excessive, liquidity to meet the daily cash flow needs of our clients while attempting to achieve maximum earnings for our stockholders. The Company measures liquidity needs through daily balance sheet monitoring, weekly cash projections and monthly liquidity measures reviewed in conjunction with Board-approved liquidity policy limits. The Company's short-term and long-term liquidity requirements are primarily met through cash flow from operations, redeployment of prepaying and maturing balances in our loan portfolio and security portfolio, increases in client deposits and wholesale deposits. The Company believes that other alternative sources of funds are available to supplement these primary sources to the extent necessary to meet additional liquidity requirements on either a short-term or long-term basis. Liquidity resources can be derived from two sources: (i) on-balance sheet liquidity resources, which represent funds currently on the statement of financial condition and (ii) off-balance sheet liquidity resources, which represent funds available from third-party sources. The Company’s on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet liquidity resources consisted of the following as of the dates indicated:

(1)On-balance sheet liquidity represents funds on the consolidated statements of financial condition – unaudited. It consists of overnight funds, short-term deposits with other banks, and unpledged AFS securities.
(2)Off-balance sheet liquidity represents funds available from third-party sources including credit lines, FHLB and Federal Reserve Bank.

The consolidated statements of cash flows - unaudited summarize our sources and uses of cash by type of activity for the three-months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. As of March 31, 2024 and 2023, we had cash and cash equivalents of $207 million and $263 million, respectively. During the three-months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, operating activities provided $19.8 million and $24.3 million of cash, respectively, while financing activities provided $93.6 million and $271.4 million of cash, respectively. The primary drivers of lower cash provided by financing activities in the first quarter of 2024 were a smaller increase in time deposits, lower line of credit borrowings, and current quarter share repurchases, partially offset by an increase in demand and savings, NOW and money market accounts. Cash usage from investing activities was $161.8 million and $332.9 million for the three-months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The primary driver of lower cash used in the first quarter of 2024 for investing activities was that the prior year first quarter included more loan origination volume.

Off-balance sheet liquidity slightly decreased from December 31, 2023 to March 31, 2024 due to normal fluctuations in our available third party sources.

The Company purchased $1.5 million of common stock during the first three months of 2024 under its previously approved share repurchase program. As of March 31, 2024, $14.4 million remained available for repurchase

48

Table of Contents

under our share repurchase program. The amount and timing of such future share repurchases will be dependent on a number of factors, including the price of our common stock, overall capital levels and cash flow needs. There is no assurance that we will repurchase up to the full amount remaining under our program.

Dividends of $155 thousand related to the Series A Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock were declared and paid by the Company during the three months ended March 31, 2024. On May 2, 2024, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend on Series A Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock in the amount of $20.00 per share to be payable on June 17, 2024 to stockholders of record as of May 31, 2024.

The Company believes that its current on and off-balance sheet liquidity will be sufficient to meet anticipated cash requirements for the next 12 months and thereafter. The Company believes that it has several on and off-balance sheet options to address reductions in cash and cash equivalents in order to maintain appropriate liquidity.

Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company is subject to contractual obligations made in the ordinary course of business. The obligations include deposit liabilities, other borrowed funds, operating leases, and preferred dividends. To the extent declared by the Board of Directors, the Company pays $0.6 million of cash dividends per year to holders of our preferred stock. Refer to “Note 7: Time Deposits and Other Borrowings” and “Note 4: Leases” within the notes to consolidated financial statements – unaudited for information regarding the Company’s significant contractual cash obligations and contractual obligations to third parties on lease obligations, respectively.

As a financial services provider, the Company is a party to various financial instruments with off-balance sheet risks, such as commitments to extend credit. Off-balance sheet arrangements represent the Company’s future cash requirements. However, a portion of these commitments may expire without being drawn upon. Refer to “Note 12: Commitments and Credit Risk” within the notes to consolidated financial statements – unaudited for a listing of the Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements.

The Company’s short-term and long-term contractual obligations, including off-balance sheet obligations, may be satisfied through the Company’s on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet liquidity discussed above.

Capital Requirements

The Company and the Bank are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. The regulatory capital requirements involve quantitative measures of the Company’s assets, liabilities, select off-balance sheet items and equity. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Refer to “Note 9: Regulatory Matters” in the notes to consolidated financial statements – unaudited for additional information. Management believes that as of March 31, 2024, the Company and the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and with general practices within the financial services industry. Application of these principles requires management to make complex and subjective estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. The Company bases estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under current circumstances. These assumptions form the basis for management judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily available from independent, objective sources. The Company evaluates estimates on an ongoing basis. Use of alternative assumptions may have resulted in significantly different estimates. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

A discussion of these policies can be found in the section captioned “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in the

Table of Contents

2023 Form 10-K. There have been no changes in the Company’s application of critical accounting policies and estimates since December 31, 2023.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Refer to “Note 1: Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” included in the notes to consolidated financial statements – unaudited included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to disclosing financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures including “tangible common stockholders’ equity,” “tangible book value per common share,” “adjusted efficiency ratio – FTE,” “adjusted net income,” “adjusted diluted earnings per common share,” “adjusted return on average assets,” and “adjusted return on average common equity.” We consider the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial and operational decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information to investors regarding our performance by excluding certain expenditures or gains that we believe are not indicative of our primary business operating results. We believe that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing, and comparing past, present and future periods.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and you should not rely on non-GAAP financial measures alone as measures of our performance. The non-GAAP financial measures we present may differ from non-GAAP financial measures used by our peers or other companies. We compensate for these limitations by providing the equivalent GAAP measures whenever we present the non-GAAP financial measures and by including a reconciliation of the impact of the components adjusted for in the non-GAAP financial measure so that both measures and the individual components may be considered when analyzing our performance.

A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures follows.

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

A primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Interest rate risk management is a key element of the Company’s statement of financial condition management. Interest rate risk is the risk that net interest margins will erode over time due to changing market conditions. Many factors can cause margins to erode including, without limitation, (i) lower loan demand; (ii) increased competition for funds; (iii) weak pricing policies; (iv) statement of financial condition mismatches; and (v) changing liquidity demands. The objective is to maximize income while minimizing interest rate risk. The Company manages its sensitivity position using its interest rate risk policy. The management of interest rate risk is a three-step process and involves: (i) measuring the interest rate risk position; (ii) assessing policy constraints; and (iii) strategic review and implementation.

Our exposure to interest rate risk is managed by the Asset/Liability Committee (“ALCO”) in accordance with policies approved by the Board of Directors. ALCO uses a combination of three systems to measure the statement of financial condition’s interest rate risk position. The three systems in combination are expected to provide a better overall result than a single system alone. The three systems include: (i) gap reports; (ii) earnings simulation; and (iii) economic value of equity. ALCO’s primary instruments for managing interest rate risk include: (i) modifying the duration of interest-bearing liabilities; (ii) modifying the duration of interest-earning assets, including our investment portfolio; and (iii) entering into on-balance sheet derivatives. The Company may utilize interest swaps for the purpose of managing interest rate risk, including forwards, interest rate caps, floors, collars, corridors and swaptions.

ALCO evaluates interest rate risk using a rate shock method and rate ramp method. In a rate shock analysis, rates change immediately, and the change is sustained over the time horizon. In a rate ramp analysis, rate changes occur gradually over time. Management reviews and utilizes both methods in managing interest rate risk; however, both methods represent a risk indicator, not a forecast. The following tables summarize the simulated changes in net interest income and fair value of equity over a 12-month horizon using a rate shock and rate ramp method as of the dates indicated:

The Company’s position is slightly liability sensitive as of March 31, 2024 and has changed from an asset sensitive position as of March 31, 2023 primarily due to the expected repricing of interest-bearing liabilities as compared to repricing of earning assets. Loans remain the largest portion of the Company’s variable rate earning assets, and $4.5 billion, or 71%, of loans mature or reprice within the twelve-month period following March 31, 2024, including $3.6 billion that repriced in April 2024. The Company expects $5.6 billion of interest-bearing liabilities will reprice in the next twelve months which consists of short duration time deposits and indexed client deposits. Approximately 95% of the Company’s time deposits mature within the next twelve months, with 48% in the second quarter of 2024. In addition, the Company has 26% of its deposits indexed to the federal funds rate. The Company also holds a $250 million interest rate collar, which was executed in July 2022 and became effective in January 2024, and increases the Company’s liability sensitive position. The Company continuously monitors the interest rate environment and believes that derivative strategies to protect net interest margin are available if needed. Additional information regarding the Company’s on-balance sheet derivative activity is incorporated herein from “Note 6: Derivatives and Hedging” within the notes to consolidated financial statements – unaudited.

The models the Company uses include assumptions regarding interest rates and balance changes. The aggregate non-maturity beta assumption utilized as of March 31, 2024 was approximately 57%, which is unchanged from our previous assumption. Other key assumptions updated during the first quarter of 2024 include new loan spreads and updated market yield curves. Other assumptions included in the model that are periodically updated include deposit decay rates, loan prepayments and call provisions within investment and debt holdings. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the model cannot precisely estimate net interest income or precisely predict the impact of higher or lower interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from simulated results due to timing,

magnitude, and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions, client behavior and management strategies, among other factors.

ITEM 4.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”)) as of March 31, 2024. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2024.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our internal control over financial reporting continues to be updated as necessary to accommodate modifications to our business processes and accounting procedures. There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the first quarter of 2024 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

In the normal course of business, we are named or threatened to be named as a defendant in various lawsuits. Management, following consultation with legal counsel, does not expect the ultimate disposition of any or a combination of these matters to have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or growth prospects. However, given the nature, scope, and complexity of the extensive legal and regulatory landscape applicable to our business (including laws and regulations governing consumer protection, fair lending, fair labor, privacy, information security and anti-money laundering and anti-terrorism laws), we, like all banking organizations, are subject to heightened legal and regulatory compliance and litigation risk.

ITEM 1A.RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, "Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our 2023 Form 10-K, which could materially affect our business, financial condition, or results of operations in future periods. There were no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in the 2023 Form 10-K.

On May 10, 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to $30 million of its common stock. The objective of the program is to give the Company the ability to opportunistically acquire undervalued shares and return capital to stockholders. As of March 31, 2024, $14.4 million remained available for repurchase under this share repurchase program. Repurchases under the program may be made in the open market or privately negotiated transactions in compliance with SEC Rule 10b-18, subject to market conditions, applicable legal requirements, and other relevant factors. The program does not obligate the Company to acquire any amount of common stock and may be suspended at any time at the Company's discretion. No time limit has been set for completion of the program. Our officers and directors are prohibited from trading in the Company’s securities if they are in possession of material non-public information and must at all times comply with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy, including quarterly blackout periods and pre-clearance procedures.

The Company’s ability to pay dividends to its stockholders and repurchase shares is affected by both general corporate law requirements and the regulations and policies of the Federal Reserve applicable to bank holding companies, including the Basel III Capital Rules. In addition, so long as any Series A Preferred Stock remains outstanding, unless full dividends for the most recently completed dividend period have been declared and paid (or declared and the payment amount has been set aside), the Company may not, subject to certain exceptions, declare, pay or set aside for payment any dividend on its common stock, or repurchase or redeem its common stock. The Company's principal source of funds to pay distributions on its common stock, other than further issuances of securities, is dividends received from its wholly owned subsidiaries. Furthermore, the ability of the Company's wholly owned subsidiaries to pay dividends to the Company would depend on the earnings or financial condition of such wholly owned subsidiaries and various business considerations. In addition, various federal and state statutes limit the amount of dividends that the Company's wholly owned subsidiaries may pay to the Company without regulatory approval.
