Average earning assets increased to $48.8 billion compared to $44.7 billion for the second quarter of 2025.

Yield on net loans, loans held for sale and leases, excluding accretion, was 6.31% for the third quarter of 2025, which was consistent with the second quarter of 2025. Investment securities yielded 3.65% in the third quarter of 2025, improving from 3.33% for the second quarter of 2025 primarily as a result of the restructuring of the Industry securities portfolio.

Additionally, gains achieved through the execution of these sales supported an additional restructure of approximately $550 million of the Company's existing securities portfolio at a yield improvement of approximately 2.0%.

Noninterest revenue declined $4.7 million, or 4.8%, compared to the second quarter of 2025 driven primarily by a decline mortgage banking revenue as well as a decline in other noninterest income. Wealth management revenue was $24.5 million for the third quarter of 2025 down from $25.3 million for the second quarter of 2025 due to approximately $1 million in second quarter seasonal trust tax revenues. Deposit service charge revenue was $19.0 million for the third quarter of 2025, up from $18.1 million for the second quarter of 2025, reflecting additional activity associated with acquired banks.

Other noninterest revenue was $27.7 million for the third quarter of 2025, representing a decline of $5.5 million from $33.1 million for the second quarter of 2025, driven by a $4.3 million loss on the termination of fair value hedges related to the Industry securities portfolio.

Both the hedging loss and the gain on sale are considered nonroutine in nature. Additionally, other noninterest revenue declined approximately $1.2 million as declines in BOLI and SBA income were partially offset by increases in FHLB dividend income and earnings on limited partnerships.

The $22.8 million, or 8.4%, linked quarter increase in adjusted noninterest expense⁽¹⁾ was driven primarily by increased expenses related to the addition of Industry as well as a full quarter's impact of the First Chatham transaction. Salaries and employee benefits increased $16.1 million compared to the second quarter of 2025, including approximately $1.2 million in incremental merger related expense, $8 million related to the addition of Industry, and an additional $1 million related to the full quarter impact of the First Chatham transaction.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures and Other Non-GAAP Ratio Definitions

(Unaudited)

Management evaluates the Company's capital position and adjusted performance by utilizing certain financial measures not calculated in accordance with GAAP, including adjusted net income, adjusted net income available to common shareholders, pre-tax pre-provision net revenue, adjusted pre-tax pre-provision net revenue, total adjusted noninterest revenue, total adjusted noninterest expense, tangible common shareholders' equity to tangible assets, total shareholders' equity (excluding AOCI), common shareholders' equity (excluding AOCI), tangible common shareholders' equity to tangible assets (excluding AOCI), return on average tangible common equity, adjusted return on average tangible common equity, adjusted return on average assets, adjusted return on average common shareholders' equity, adjusted return on average common shareholders' equity, pre-tax pre-provision net revenue to total average assets, adjusted pre-tax pre-provision net revenue to total average assets, adjusted earnings per common share, tangible book value per common share, tangible book value per common share, excluding AOCI, efficiency ratio (tax equivalent), adjusted efficiency ratio (tax equivalent), dividend payout ratio, and adjusted dividend payout ratio. The Company has included these non-GAAP financial measures in this release for the applicable periods presented. Management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures: (i) provides important supplemental information that contributes to a proper understanding of the Company's capital position and adjusted performance, (ii) enables a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company's business and (iii) allows investors to evaluate the Company's performance in a manner similar to management, the financial services industry, bank stock analysts and bank regulators. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the tables below. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as substitutes for GAAP financial measures, and the Company strongly encourages investors to review the GAAP financial measures included in this news release and not to place undue reliance upon any single financial measure. In addition, because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this news release with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.
