Computed values are grepcent-computed from the verified facts above and may differ from ratios the company itself reports. Free cash flow = operating cash flow − capital expenditures. Net margin = net income ÷ revenue. Revenue YoY = FY2025 revenue ÷ FY2024 revenue − 1 (consecutive fiscal years only). ROE = net income ÷ period-end stockholders' equity.

These statements are not guarantees of the Company’s future performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions, which are difficult to predict. Therefore, actual outcomes and results may differ materially from what is expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements.

Table of Contents

The Company generates revenue primarily from net interest income and secondarily through the origination and sale of government guaranteed loans. Income from the retention of loans consists principally of interest income. Income from the sale of loans is comprised of loan servicing revenue and revaluation of related servicing assets along with net gains on sales of loans. Offsetting these revenues are the cost of funding sources, provision for credit losses, any costs related to foreclosed assets and other operating costs such as salaries and employee benefits, travel, professional services, advertising and marketing and tax expense. The Company also has less routinely generated gains and losses arising from its financial technology investments.

Table of Contents

The following is a summary of the Company's financial highlights and events for 2025:

•Record year of loan production with total loans and leases held for sale and investment increasing by $1.81 billion, or 17.1%. Total loan originations in 2025 were $6.21 billion compared to $5.16 billion in 2024, an increase of 20.5%. Substantial loan production in 2025 was the primary driver of growth in total assets, which increased to $15.13 billion at December 31, 2025 as compared to $12.94 billion at December 31, 2024, for an increase of $2.19 billion, or 16.9%.

•Supporting loan growth, total deposits increased by $1.93 billion, or 16.4%, to $13.69 billion at the end of 2025 and shareholders’ equity increased $250.6 million, or 25.0%, driven by net income as discussed below and further bolstered by the issuance of depositary shares which resulted in net proceeds of $96.3 million.

•Net income attributable to common shareholders increased $25.3 million, or 32.7%, from $77.5 million, or $1.69 per diluted share, to $102.8 million, or $2.23 per diluted share, largely due to the following items:

◦Net interest income increased by $72.5 million, or 19.3%, largely the result of robust loan growth, which led to an increase in net interest margin to 3.30% for 2025 as compared to 3.27% for 2024.

◦The provision for credit losses of $96.3 million remained relatively flat year over year. Total nonperforming unguaranteed loans and leases as a percentage of total loans and leases held for investment, excluding loans measured at fair value, increased from 0.82% at the end of 2024 to 0.87% at the end of 2025. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average held for investment loans and leases carried at amortized cost, for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, were 0.63% and 0.52%, respectively.

◦Increased total noninterest income of $16.8 million, or 14.9%, and increased total noninterest expense of $35.6 million, or 11.7%. A detailed overview of key drivers of year-over-year changes in reported net income is outlined more fully in the opening to the section titled “Results of Operations.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Statements included in this management's discussion and analysis include non-GAAP financial measures and should be read along with the accompanying tables, which provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures. The reconciliation of non-GAAP measures is presented at the conclusion of this Item 7.

Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures provide additional useful information that allows readers to evaluate the ongoing performance of the Company without regard to certain transactional activities. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of performance or financial condition as reported under GAAP, and investors should consider the Company's performance and financial condition as reported under GAAP and all other relevant information when assessing the performance or financial condition of the Company. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results or financial condition as reported under GAAP. Management’s non-GAAP measures are not necessarily comparable to similarly named measures represented by other companies, as they may be calculated differently.
