Organization and Basis of Presentation

Organization and Basis of Presentation

Nature of Operations - The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of FirstSun Capital Bancorp (“FirstSun” or “Parent Company” and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Sunflower Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”) and Logia Portfolio Management, LLC, and have been prepared using U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial statements. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These entities are collectively referred to as “our”, “us”, “we”, or “the Company”.

These consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for a full year presentation and certain disclosures have been condensed or omitted in accordance with rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These interim financial statements are unaudited, and include, in our opinion, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods indicated, which are not necessarily indicative of results which may be expected for the full year. These unaudited consolidated financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with FirstSun’s audited consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 25, 2022 (the “2021 Form 10-K”). Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Reclassifications had no effect on our net income or stockholders’ equity.

Business Combination - On April 1, 2022, FirstSun completed its previously announced merger with Pioneer Bancshares, Inc. (“Pioneer”). Under the Merger Agreement, a wholly-owned subsidiary of FirstSun, FSCB Merger Subsidiary, Inc., merged with and into Pioneer, with Pioneer continuing as the surviving entity and becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of FirstSun (the “merger”). Immediately after the effective time of the merger (the “Effective Time”), Pioneer was merged with and into FirstSun, with FirstSun continuing as the surviving entity (the “second step merger”). Immediately following the completion of the second step merger, Pioneer’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Pioneer Bank, SSB, a Texas state savings bank, was merged with and into the Bank, with the Bank continuing as the surviving bank. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each Pioneer shareholder had the right to receive 1.0443 shares of FirstSun common stock, for each share of Pioneer common stock owned by the shareholder, with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares. Each outstanding share of FirstSun common stock remained outstanding and was unaffected by the merger. Further information is presented in Note 2 - Merger with Pioneer Bancshares, Inc.

Use of Estimates - The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions based on available information. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

These estimates are based on historical experience and on various assumptions about the future that are believed to be reasonable based on all available information. Our reported financial position or results of operations may be materially different under changed conditions or when using different estimates and assumptions, particularly with respect to significant accounting policies. In the event that estimates or assumptions prove to differ from actual results, adjustments are made in subsequent periods to reflect more current information.

Risks and Uncertainties - In the normal course of business, companies in the banking and mortgage industries encounter certain economic and regulatory risks. Economic risks include prepayment risk, market risk, interest rate risk, and credit risk. We are subject to interest rate risk to the extent that in a rising interest rate environment we may experience a decrease in loan production, as well as decreases in the value of mortgage loans held-for-sale and in commitments to originate loans, which may adversely impact our earnings. Credit risk is the risk of default that may result from the borrowers’ inability or unwillingness to make contractually required payments.

We generally sell loans to investors without recourse; therefore, the investors have assumed the risk of loss or default by the borrower. However, we are usually required by these investors to make certain standard representations and warranties relating to credit information, loan documentation, and collateral. To the extent that we do not comply with such representations, or there are early payment defaults, we may be required to repurchase the loans or indemnify these

investors for any losses from borrower defaults. In addition, if loans pay off within a specified time frame, we may be required to refund a portion of the sales proceeds to the investors. We established reserves for potential losses related to these representations and warranties which are recorded within accrued expenses and other liabilities. In assessing the adequacy of the reserves, we evaluate various factors including actual write-offs during the period, historical loss experience, known delinquent and other problem loans, and economic trends and conditions in the industry. Further information is presented in Note 17 - Commitments and Contingencies.

Adoption of New Accounting Standards - As an “emerging growth company” under Section 107 of the JOBS Act, we can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. Therefore, we can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to non-public business entities. We intend to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period for an “emerging growth company” for as long as it is available to us. For standards that we have delayed adoption, we may lack comparability to other companies who have adopted such standards. Other than the adoption of ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), there have been no material developments with respect to newly issued standards from those disclosed in our 2021 Form 10-K. We have deferred adoption of ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326).
