Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION

Parke Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company, we, us, our”) is a bank holding company headquartered in Sewell, New Jersey. Through subsidiaries, the Company provides individuals, corporations and other businesses and institutions with commercial and retail banking services, principally loans and deposits. The Company was incorporated in January 2005 under the laws of the State of New Jersey for the sole purpose of becoming the holding company of Parke Bank (the "Bank").

The Bank is a commercial bank, which was incorporated on August 25, 1998, and commenced operations on January 28, 1999. The Bank is chartered by the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance and its deposits are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Bank maintains its principal office at 601 Delsea Drive, Sewell, New Jersey, and has six additional branch office locations; 501 Tilton Road, Northfield, New Jersey, 567 Egg Harbor Road, Washington Township, New Jersey, 67 East Jimmie Leeds Road, Galloway Township, New Jersey, 1150 Haddon Avenue, Collingswood, New Jersey, 1610 Spruce Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and 1032 Arch Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Bank also has a loan office located at 1817 East Venango Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation: We prepared our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Parke Bank (including certain partnership interests). Parke Capital Trust I, Parke Capital Trust II and Parke Capital Trust III are wholly-owned subsidiaries but are not consolidated as they do not meet the requirements for consolidation under applicable accounting guidance. We have eliminated inter-company balances and transactions. We have also reclassified certain prior year amounts to conform to the current year presentation, which did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

The accompanying interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The accompanying interim financial statements for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and 2022 are unaudited. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2022, was derived from the audited financial statements. In the opinion of management, these financial statements include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for such interim periods. Results of operations for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the full year or any other period.

Use of Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP 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 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 include the allowance for credit losses, the valuation of deferred income taxes, and the carrying value of other real estate owned ("OREO").

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans and Leases

The allowance for credit losses on loans and leases is a valuation account that is deducted from the loan or lease’s amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans and leases. Loans and leases deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases. Changes to the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases are recorded through the provision for credit losses. The allowance for credit losses on loans and leases is maintained at a level considered appropriate to absorb expected credit losses over the expected life of the portfolio as of the reporting date.

The allowance for credit losses on loans and leases is measured on a collective (pool) basis when similar risk characteristics exist. Parke's loan portfolio segments include commercial and industrial, construction, commercial - owner occupied, commercial - non-owner occupied, residential - 1 to 4 family, residential - 1 to 4 family investment, residential - multifamily, and consumer. Loans that do not share similar risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. Loans evaluated individually are not also included in the collective evaluation. For individually assessed loans, see related details in the Individually Assessed Loans section below.

The allowance for credit losses on collectively assessed loans and leases is measured over the expected life of the loan or lease using a vintage loss rate approach, which will then be supplemented with qualitative factors. The vintage loss rate approach creates pools of loans (made up of individual loans) based on the loan segmentation. The loan pools are aggregated by origination year. Charge-offs, net of recoveries, are allocated by the year of charge-off to each loan pool. An average life is prescribed to a pool of loans that were originated in a particular year. The actual charge-offs as a percent of total loans are calculated for each historical year, and projected for future years for each year within the average life time horizon. The sum of the actual charge-offs and projected charge-offs are divided by the average amortized origination amount for each respective year. Those charge-off percentages are added together to obtain an aggregated vintage loss percentage which is then multiplied by the outstanding loan balances to obtain a reserve requirement. Parke runs the Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") impairment models on a quarterly basis and qualitatively adjusts model results for risk factors that are not considered within the model but which are relevant in assessing the expected credit losses within the loan and lease pools. Management generally considers the following qualitative factors:

•Volume and severity of past-due loans, non-accrual loans and classified loans;

•Lending policies and procedures, including underwriting standards and historically based loss/collection, charge-off and recovery practices;

•National and economic conditions that may have an impact on credit quality;

•Nature and volume of the portfolio;

•Existence and effect of any credit concentrations and changes in the level of such concentrations;

•The value of the underlying collateral for loans that are not collateral dependent;

•Changes in the quality of the loan review system; and

•Experience, ability and depth of lending management and staff

Parke has elected to not estimate an allowance for credit losses on accrued interest receivable, as it already has a policy in place to reverse or write-off accrued interest, through interest income, in a timely manner.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Lending-Related Commitments

Parke estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which it is exposed to credit risk on contractual obligations to extend credit, unless the obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The allowance for credit losses on lending-related commitments is recorded in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet and is recorded as a provision for credit losses in the consolidated income statement. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over their estimated lives. The lifetime loss rates for off-balance sheet credit exposures are calculated in the same manner as on-balance sheet credit exposures, using the same model and economic forecasts, adjusted for the estimated likelihood that funding will occur.

Individually Assessed Loans and Leases

ASC 326 provides that a loan or lease is measured individually if it does not share similar risk characteristics with other financial assets. For Parke, loans and leases which are identified to be individually assessed under CECL typically ~~would have been evaluated individually as impaired loans using accounting guidance in effect in periods prior to~~are those that are on non-accrual at the ~~adoption of CECL~~reporting date, and include collateral dependent loans.

Collateral Dependent Loans

Parke considers a loan to be collateral dependent when foreclosure of the underlying collateral is probable. Parke has also elected to apply the practical expedient to measure expected credit losses of a collateral dependent asset using the fair value of the collateral, less any estimated costs to sell, when foreclosure is not probable but repayment of the loan is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, and the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Held to Maturity Securities

We follow Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 326-20, Financial Instruments - Credit Loss - Measured at Amortized Cost, to measure expected credit losses on held-to-maturity debt securities on a collective basis by security investment grade. The estimate of expected credit losses considers historical credit loss information that is adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts.

The Company classifies the held-to-maturity debt securities into the following major security types: residential mortgage backed, and state and political subdivisions. These securities are highly rated with a history of no credit losses, and are assigned ratings based on the most recent data from ratings agencies depending on the availability of data for the security. Credit ratings of ~~held-~~

~~to-maturity~~held-to-maturity debt securities, which are a significant input in calculating the expected credit loss, are reviewed on a quarterly basis.

Based on the credit ratings of our held-to-maturity securities and our historical experience including no losses, we have determined that an allowance for credit loss on the held-to-maturity portfolio is not required

Accrued interest receivable on held-to-maturity debt securities is excluded from the estimate of credit losses and is included in Accrued interest receivable on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Available for Sale Securities

We follow ASC 326-30, Financial Instruments - Credit Loss - Available-for-Sale Debt Securities, which provides guidance related to the recognition of and expanded disclosure requirements for expected credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities. For available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company first evaluates whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either criteria is met, the security's amortized cost basis is reduced to fair value and recognized as a reduction to non-interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

For debt securities available-for-sale which the Company does not intend to sell, or it is not likely the security would be required to be sold before recovery, we evaluate whether a decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other adverse factors, such as a change in the security's credit rating. In assessing whether a credit loss exists, the Company compares the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security with the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance is recorded, limited to the fair value of the security.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements:

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020.-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. The amendments provide optional guidance to entities for a limited period of time to ease the transition in accounting for and recognizing the effects of reference rate reform on financial reporting. Under the guidance, modifications of contracts due to reference rate reform will not require contract remeasurement or reassessment of a previous accounting determination. For hedge accounting, modification of critical terms of the hedge due to changes in reference rate reform will not affect hedge accounting or de-designate the hedging relationship. The guidance also provides specific expedients for fair value hedges, cash flow hedges, and excluded components. Further, the guidance provides a one-time election to sell or transfer held to maturity debt securities that are affected by the reference rate change. The guidance is effective upon issuance through December 31, 2022. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848, which extends the sunset (or expiration) date of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 848 to December 31, 2024. This gives reporting entities two additional years to apply the accounting relief provided under ASC Topic 848 for matters related to reference rate reform. ASU 2022-06 is effective for all reporting entities immediately upon issuance and must be applied on a prospective basis. The Company does not expect the application of this guidance to have a material impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted in 2023

In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standard Board (FASB) issued accounting standards update ("ASU") 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses. ASU 2016-13 (Topic 326), replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology in current GAAP with a CECL methodology and requires consideration of a broader range of information to determine credit loss estimates. Financial assets measured at amortized cost will be presented at the net amount expected to be collected by using an allowance for credit losses. The ASU was amended in some aspects by subsequent Accounting Standards Updates. This guidance became effective on January 1, 2023 for the Company. Results and disclosures for reporting periods beginning after January 1, 2023 are presented under ASC 326 while prior period amounts continue to be reported in accordance with previously applicable GAAP.

The Company adopted this guidance, and subsequent related updates, using the modified retrospective approach for all financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loans and held-to-maturity debt securities, and unfunded commitments. On January 1, 2023, the Company recorded a cumulative effect decrease to retained earnings of $2.1 million, net of tax, of which $1.9 million related to loans, and $960.0 thousand related to unfunded commitments. There were no such charges for securities held by the Company at the date of adoption.

The following table illustrates the impact of adopting ASC 326:

The Company’s unrealized loss for the debt securities is comprised of 1116 securities in the less than 12 months loss position and 1519 securities in the 12 months or greater loss position at ~~June~~September 30, 2023. The mortgage-backed securities that had unrealized losses were issued or guaranteed by the US government or US government sponsored entities. The unrealized losses associated with those mortgage-backed securities are generally driven by changes in interest rates and are not due to credit losses given the explicit or implicit guarantees provided by the U.S. government. The states and political subdivisions securities that had unrealized losses were issued by a school district, and the loss is attributed to changes in interest rates and not due to credit losses. Because the Company does not intend to sell the securities and it is not more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell these investments before recovery of their amortized cost basis, the Company does not consider the unrealized loss in these securities to be credit losses at ~~June~~September 30, 2023.

Allowance For Credit Losses (ACL)

We maintain the ACL at a level that we believe to be appropriate to absorb estimated credit losses in the loan portfolios as of the balance sheet date. We established our allowance in accordance with guidance provided in Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") - Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("ASC 326").

The allowance for credit losses represents management’s estimate of expected losses inherent in the Company’s lending activities excluding loans accounted for under fair value. The allowance for credit losses is maintained through charges to the provision for credit losses in the Consolidated Statements of Income as expected losses are estimated. Loans or portions thereof that are determined to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance.

The Company performs periodic reviews of its loan and lease portfolios to identify credit risks and to assess the overall collectability of those portfolios. The Company's allowance for credit losses includes a general component and an asset-specific component for collateral-dependent loans. To determine the asset-specific component of the allowance, the loans are evaluated individually based on the fair value of the underlying collateral. The Company generally measures the asset-specific allowance as the difference between the net realizable value of loan collateral and the recorded investment of a loan.

The general component of the allowance evaluates the impairments of pools of the loan portfolio collectively. It incorporates a historical valuation allowance and qualitative allowance. The historical valuation utilizes a vintage loss rate approach utilizing a third party software model. The vintage loss rate approach creates pools of loans based on the segments defined by management, and consists of commercial and industrial, construction, commercial - owner occupied, commercial - non-owner occupied, residential - 1 to 4 family, residential - 1 to 4 family investment, residential - multifamily, and consumer. The loan pools are aggregated by origination year. Charge-offs, net of recoveries, are allocated by the year of charge-off to each loan pool. An average life is prescribed to a pool of loans that were originated in a particular year. The actual charge-offs as a percent of total loans are calculated for each historical year, and projected for future years for each year within the average life time horizon. The sum of the actual charge-offs and projected charge-offs are divided by the average amortized origination amount for each respective year. Those charge-off percentages are added together to obtain an aggregated vintage loss percentage which is then multiplied by the outstanding loan balances to obtain a reserve requirement.

The qualitative allowance component is based on general economic conditions and other qualitative risk factors both internal and external to the Company. It is generally determined by evaluating, among other things: (i) the experience, ability and effectiveness of the Bank's lending management and staff; (ii) the effectiveness of the Bank's lending policies, procedures and internal controls;(iii) volume and severity of loan credit quality; (iv) nature and volume of portfolio and term of loans (v) the composition and concentrations of credit; (vi) the effectiveness of the internal loan review system; and (vii) national and local economic trends and conditions, and industry conditions. Management evaluates the degree of risk that each one of these components has on the quality of the loan portfolio on a quarterly basis. Each component is determined to have either a high, high-moderate, moderate, low-moderate or low degree of risk. The results are then input into a "general allocation matrix" to determine an appropriate general valuation allowance.

The Company has elected to exclude accrued interest receivable from the measurement of the ACL. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, any outstanding accrued interest is generally reversed against interest income.

The process of determining the level of the allowance for credit losses requires a high degree of estimate and judgment. It is reasonably possible that actual outcomes may differ from our estimates.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures

The Company estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period in which the Company is exposed to credit risk via a contractual obligation to extend credit, unless that obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Company. The allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted through the provision for credit loss expense. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life. At ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures was $760.0 thousand.

The following tables present the information regarding the allowance for credit losses and associated loan data by portfolio segment under the CECL model in accordance with ASC 326:

For the year to date, the increase to provision in the Commercial and Industrial, Residential 1 to 4 Family, and 1 to 4 Family Investment Segments were largely driven by increases to growth within the portfolio that increased the loan exposure and also caused changes to the qualitative factors related to loan volume within the portfolio segments. The credit provisions to the Construction, Commercial Owner Occupied, and Residential Multifamily segments were largely driven by declines or slowdowns to growth within the portfolio that lowered the loan exposure and also caused changes to the qualitative factors related to loan volume within the portfolio segments, slightly offset by an increase in the national and local economic qualitative factor driven by deteriorating economic conditions during the second quarter of 2022.

Credit Quality Indicators: As part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of the Company's loan portfolio, management tracks certain credit quality indicators including trends related to the risk grades of loans, the level of classified loans, net charge-offs, nonperforming loans (see details above) and the general economic conditions in the region.

The Company utilizes a risk grading matrix to assign a risk grade to each of its loans. Loans are graded on a scale of 1 to 7. Grades 1 through 4 are considered “Pass”. A description of the general characteristics of the seven risk grades is as follows:

1.Good: Borrower exhibits the strongest overall financial condition and represents the most creditworthy profile.

2.Satisfactory (A): Borrower reflects a well-balanced financial condition, demonstrates a high level of creditworthiness and typically will have a strong banking relationship with the Bank.

3.Satisfactory (B): Borrower exhibits a balanced financial condition and does not expose the Bank to more than a normal or average overall amount of risk. Loans are considered fully collectable.

4.Watch List: Borrower reflects a fair financial condition, but there exists an overall greater than average risk. Risk is deemed acceptable by virtue of increased monitoring and control over borrowings. Probability of timely repayment is present.

5.Other Assets Especially Mentioned (OAEM): Financial condition is such that assets in this category have a potential weakness or pose unwarranted financial risk to the Bank even though the asset value is not currently impaired. The asset does not currently warrant adverse classification but if not corrected could weaken and could create future increased risk exposure. Includes loans that require an increased degree of monitoring or servicing as a result of internal or external changes.

6.Substandard: This classification represents more severe cases of #5 (OAEM) characteristics that require increased monitoring. Assets are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the borrower or of the collateral. Asset has a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that impairs the ability to repay debt and jeopardizes the timely liquidation or realization of the collateral at the asset’s net book value.

7.Doubtful: Assets which have all the weaknesses inherent in those assets classified #6 (Substandard) but the risks are more severe relative to financial deterioration in capital and/or asset value; accounting/evaluation techniques may be questionable and the overall possibility for collection in full is highly improbable. Borrowers in this category require constant monitoring, are considered work-out loans and present the potential for future loss to the Bank.

The following tables provide an analysis of loans by portfolio segment based on the credit quality indicators used to determine the allowance for credit losses, as of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 under the current expected credit loss model.

Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty

Occasionally, the Company modifies loans to borrowers in financial distress by providing term extensions, interest rate reductions, or other forbearance modifications. In some cases, Parke provides multiple types of concessions on the same loan.

The following table shows the amortized cost basis at the end of the reporting period of the loans modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, disaggregated by class of financing receivable and type of concession granted.

As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023, Parke had no commitments to lend additional amounts to the borrowers included in the previous table.

The following table describes the financial effect of the modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty as of ~~June~~September 30, 2023:


						Other
Commercial – Non-owner Occupied						Forbearance agreement made on two loans to the same borrower whereby the Company will receive all principal and interest due by the original maturity date and where the Company will not foreclose as long as payments are made as per the terms of the agreement.

Upon the Company's determination that a modified loan (or portion of a loan) has subsequently been deemed uncollectible, the loan (or a portion of the loan) is written off. Therefore, the amortized cost basis of the loan is reduced by the uncollectible amount and the allowance for credit losses is adjusted by the same amount. There were no loans that had a payment default during the period and were modified in the 12 months before default to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty.

The Company closely monitors the performance of the loans that are modified to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty to understand the effectiveness of its modification efforts. The following table depicts the performance of loans that have been modified in the last 12 months (in thousands):

NOTE 6. FAIR VALUE

Fair Value Measurements

The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. The fair value is a reasonable point within the range that is most representative of fair value under current market conditions. In accordance with this guidance, the Company groups its assets and liabilities carried at fair value in three levels as follows:

Level 1 Input:

1)Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2 Inputs:

1)Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.

2)Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

3)Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for the term of the asset or liability (e.g., interest rates, yield curves, credit risks, prepayment speeds or volatilities) or “market corroborated inputs.”

Level 3 Inputs:

1)Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both unobservable (i.e. supported by little or no market activity) and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

2)These assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

Fair Value on a Recurring Basis:

The following is a description of the Company’s valuation methodologies for assets carried at fair value on a recurring basis. These methods may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Company believes that its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different estimate of fair value at the reporting measurement date.

Investments in Available for Sale Securities:

Where quoted prices are available in an active market, securities or other assets are classified in Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy. If quoted market prices are not available for the specific security or available for sale loans, then fair values are provided by independent third-party valuation services. These valuation services estimate fair values using pricing models and other accepted valuation methodologies, such as quotes for similar securities and observable yield curves and spreads. As part of the Company’s overall valuation process, management evaluates these third-party methodologies to ensure that they are representative of exit prices in the Company’s principal markets. Securities in Level 2 include mortgage-backed securities, and corporate debt obligations.

The table below presents the balances of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, there were no transfers between the levels within the fair value hierarchy. There were no level 3 assets or liabilities held during the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis:

~~Fair Value on a Non-recurring Basis:~~

Certain assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment).

Collateral-dependent loans are those loans that are accounted for under ASC 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("ASC 326"), in which the Bank has measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the loan’s collateral. Fair value is generally determined based upon independent third-party appraisals of the properties that collateralize the loans. These assets are generally classified as Level 3 fair values, based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurements.

OREO consists of real estate properties that are recorded at fair value based upon current appraised value, or agreements of sale, less estimated disposition costs using level 3 inputs. Properties are reappraised annually.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company discloses estimated fair values for its significant financial instruments in accordance with FASB ASC (Topic 825), “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”. The methodologies for estimating the fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis are discussed above.

For certain financial assets and liabilities, carrying value approximates fair value due to the nature of the financial instrument. These instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest receivable, bank owned life insurance, Federal Home Loan Bank of New York ("FHLBNY") restricted stock, demand and other non-maturity deposits and accrued interest payable, and they are considered to be level 1 measurements.

The following table summarizes the carrying amounts and fair values for financial instruments that are not carried at fair value at ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022:

NOTE 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. These instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. The contract or notional amounts of these instruments reflect the extent of the Company’s involvement in these particular classes of financial instruments. The Company’s exposure to the maximum possible credit risk in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instruments for commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit is represented by the contractual or notional amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require the payment of a fee. The Company evaluates each customer’s credit-worthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if deemed necessary upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation. Collateral held varies but may include accounts receivable; inventory; property, plant and equipment and income-producing commercial properties. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. Commitments to fund fixed-rate loans were immaterial at ~~June~~September 30, 2023. Variable-rate commitments are generally issued for less than one year and carry market rates of interest. Such instruments are not likely to be affected by annual rate caps triggered by rising interest rates. Management believes that off-balance sheet risk is not material to the results of operations or financial condition. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, unused commitments to extend credit amounted to approximately ~~$124.9~~$113.7 million and $159.0 million, respectively. At ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures was $760.0 thousand.

Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of a customer to a third party. The credit risk involved in issuing letters of credit is essentially the same as that involved in extending loan facilities to customers. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, standby letters of credit with customers were $1.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

On ~~April 5,~~July 6, 2023 and September 29, 2023, the Bank entered into ~~an agreement~~agreements with the FHLBNY for a Municipal Letter of Credit ("MLOC") of $50.0 ~~million.~~million and $10.0 million, respectively. The ~~MLOC is~~MLOC's are used to pledge against public deposits and ~~expires~~both MLOC's expire on ~~July~~October 5, 2023. There were no outstanding borrowings on the ~~letter~~letters of credit as of ~~June~~September 30, 2023.

The Company also has entered into an employment contract with the President of the Company, which provides for continued payment of certain employment salary and benefits prior to the expiration date of the agreement and in the event of a change in control, as defined. The Company has also entered in Change-in-Control Severance Agreements with certain officers which provide for the payment of severance in certain circumstances following a change in control.

We provide banking services to customers that are licensed by various States to do business in the cannabis industry as growers, processors and dispensaries. Cannabis businesses are legal in these States, although ~~it is~~they are not legal at the federal level. The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (“FinCEN”) published guidelines in 2014 for financial institutions servicing state legal cannabis businesses. A financial institution that provides services to cannabis-related businesses can comply with Bank Secrecy Act (“BSA”) disclosure standards by following the FinCEN guidelines. We maintain stringent written policies and procedures related to the acceptance of such businesses and to the monitoring and maintenance of such

business accounts. We conduct a significant due diligence review of the cannabis business before the business is accepted, including confirmation that the business is properly licensed by the applicable state. Throughout the relationship, we continue monitoring the business, including site visits, to ensure that the business continues to meet our stringent requirements, including maintenance of required licenses and periodic financial reviews of the business.

While we believe we are operating in compliance with the FinCEN guidelines, there can be no assurance that federal enforcement guidelines will not change. Federal prosecutors have significant discretion and there can be no assurance that the federal prosecutors will not choose to strictly enforce the federal laws governing cannabis. Any change in the Federal government’s enforcement position, could cause us to immediately cease providing banking services to the cannabis industry.

At ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, deposit balances from cannabis customers were approximately ~~$111.6~~$93.9 million and $177.3 million, or ~~7.7%~~6.1% and 11.3% of total deposits, respectively, with three customers accounting for ~~49.2%~~56.0% and 36.9% of the total at ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022. At ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, there were cannabis-related loans in the amounts of ~~$19.5~~$26.7 million and $3.8 million, respectively.

~~Armored Car Matter~~

An armored car company used by the Bank to transport and store cash for the Bank’s cannabis-related customers, has informed the Company that some of the cash stored for the Bank is missing from its vault and is presumed to have been stolen. The amount that the Bank had recorded as being held at the armored car company's facility on the last day that records were provided was $9.5 million. There is not enough information to determine the exact amount of the potential loss, if any, as well as the amount that could be recovered. The Bank is working with relevant state and federal law enforcement authorities to investigate this matter as well as pursuing judicial avenues of recovery. The Bank is pursuing various avenues of recovery that it may have, including, among others, possible insurance claims. If it is ultimately determined that a loss is probable and estimable, we will record the loss in the appropriate fiscal period. If we are successful in making recoveries, we will record the recoveries in the period received, or when the receipt of such recoveries becomes certain.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Forward-Looking Statements

Throughout this report, "Parke Bancorp" and "the Company" refer to Parke Bancorp Inc., and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company is collectively referred to as "we", "us" or "our". Parke Bank is referred to as the "Bank".

The Company may from time to time make written or oral "forward-looking statements" including statements contained in this Report and in other communications by the Company which are made in good faith pursuant to the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements, such as statements of the Company's plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions, involve risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various important factors (some of which are beyond the Company's control). The following factors, among others, could cause the Company's financial performance to differ materially from the plans, objectives, expectations, estimates and intentions expressed in such forward-looking statements: the strength of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which the Company conducts operations; the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the United States economy in general and the local economies in which the Company operates; the effects of, and changes in, trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, inflation, interest rate, market and monetary fluctuations; the potential adverse effects of the Consent Orders and any additional regulatory restrictions that may be imposed by banking regulators; the timely development of, and acceptance of, new products and services of the Company and the perceived overall value of these products and services by users, including the features, pricing and quality compared to competitors' products and services; the impact of changes in financial services laws and regulations (including laws concerning taxes, banking, securities and insurance); the effect of any change in federal government enforcement of federal laws affecting the cannabis industry; technological changes; acquisitions; changes in consumer spending and saving habits; and the success of the Company at managing the risks involved in the foregoing.

Financial institutions can be affected by changing conditions in the real estate and financial markets. The lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical instability, including the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the war in Israel, foreign currency exchange volatility, volatility in global capital markets, inflationary pressures, and higher interest rates may meaningfully impact loan production, income levels, and the measurement of certain significant estimates such as the allowance for credit losses. Moreover, in a period of economic contraction, we may experience elevated levels of credit losses, reduced interest income, impairment of financial assets, diminished access to capital markets and other funding sources, and reduced demand for our products and services. Volatility in the housing markets, real estate values and unemployment levels results in significant write-downs of asset values by financial institutions. Our lending relationships are primarily with small to mid-sized businesses and individual consumers residing in and around southern New Jersey and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. We focus our lending efforts primarily in three lending areas: residential mortgage loans, commercial mortgage loans, and construction loans. As a result of this geographic concentration, a significant broad-based deterioration in economic conditions in these areas could have a material adverse impact on the quality of our loan portfolio, results of operations and future growth potential.

An unexpected COVID-19 pandemic resurgence due to new variants could cause us to experience higher credit losses in our lending portfolio, additional increases in our allowance for credit losses, impairment of financial assets, diminished access to capital markets and other funding sources, further reduced demand for our products and services, and other negative impacts on our financial position, results of operations.

During 2022, the Federal Reserve took unprecedented action during the year to restrain inflation and improve the stability of the economy by raising the target federal funds rate several times from 25 basis points in the beginning of the year to 75 basis points toward the end of the year and brought the benchmark interest rates up by a collective 4.50 percent. During the first quarter 2023, the Federal Reserve increased the target federal funds rate another 0.25 percent and further increased the target federal funds rate another 0.25 percent in May 2023. At its June 2023 meeting, the Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged for the first time since March 2022, in order to give themselves time to assess the still developing effects of previous increases in interest rates and borrowing costs. However, on July 26, 2023, the Federal Reserve increased the target funds rate another 0.25 percent. At its policy meeting in September 2023, the Federal Reserve again left its target federal funds rate unchanged (5.25% - 5.50%). The Federal Reserve has indicated that it may further increase the target federal funds rate in the second half 2023 in an attempt to reduce inflation. Any substantial or unexpected change in market interest rates could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. As inflation increases and market interest rates rise, the value of our investment securities, particularly those with longer maturities, would decrease, although this effect can be less pronounced for floating rate instruments. In addition, inflation generally increases the cost of goods and services we use in our business operations, such as electricity and other utilities, which increases our non-interest expenses. Furthermore, our customers are also affected by inflation and the rising costs of goods and services used in their households and businesses, which could have a negative impact on their ability to repay their loans with us.

Any of these effects, if sustained, may impair our capital and liquidity positions, require us to take capital actions, prevent us from satisfying our minimum regulatory capital ratios and other supervisory requirements, or result in downgrades in our credit ratings and the reduction or elimination of our common stock dividend in future periods. The extent to which current economic environment has a further impact on our business, results of operations, and financial condition, as well as the regulatory capital and liquidity ratios, will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the current economic environment and actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the geopolitical conflict, and inflationary pressure.

Overview

The following discussion provides information about our results of operations, financial condition, liquidity and asset quality. We intend that this information facilitates your understanding and assessment of significant changes and trends related to our financial condition and results of operations. You should read this section in conjunction with "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022.

We are a bank holding company and are headquartered in Washington Township, New Jersey. Through the Bank, we provide personal and business financial services to individuals and small to mid-sized businesses primarily in New Jersey and Pennsylvania. The Bank has branches in Galloway Township, Northfield, Washington Township, Collingswood, New Jersey and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The vast majority of our revenue and income is currently generated through the Bank.

We manage our Company for the long term. We are focused on the fundamentals of growing customers, loans, deposits and revenue and improving profitability, while investing for the future and managing risk, expenses and capital. We continue to invest in our products, markets and brand, and embrace our commitments to our customers, shareholders, employees and the communities where we do business. Our approach is concentrated on organically growing and deepening client relationships across our businesses that meet our risk/return measures.

We focus on small to mid-sized business and retail customers and offer a range of loan products, deposits services, and other financial products through our retail branches and other channels. The Company's results of operations are dependent primarily on its net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income earned on its interest earning-assets and the interest expense paid on its interest-bearing liabilities. In our operations, we have three major lines of lending: residential real estate mortgage, commercial real estate mortgage, and construction lending. Our interest income is primarily generated from our lending and investment activities. Our deposit products include checking, savings, money market accounts, and certificates of deposit. The majority of our deposit accounts are obtained through our retail banking business, which provides us with low cost funding to grow our lending efforts. The Company also generates income from loan and deposit fees and other non-interest related activities. The Company's non-interest expense primarily consists of employee compensation, administration, and other operating expenses.

At ~~June~~September 30, 2023, we had total assets of $1.98 billion, and total equity of ~~$279.1~~$278.0 million. Net income available to common shareholders for the three and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 was ~~$8.1~~$1.0 million and ~~$19.3~~$20.3 million, respectively.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 Compared to Three Months Ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022

Net Income: Our net income available to common shareholders for the ~~second~~third quarter of 2023 decreased $~~2.6~~9.5 million, or ~~24.3%~~90.3%, to ~~$8.1~~$1.0 million, compared to ~~$10.7~~$10.5 million for the same period last year. Earnings per share were ~~$0.68~~$0.09 per basic common share and ~~$0.67~~$0.08 per diluted common share for the ~~second~~third quarter of 2023 compared to ~~$0.90~~$0.88 per basic common share and ~~$0.88~~$0.87 per diluted

common share for the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to a $9.3 million increase in ~~net income available~~other operating expenses resulting from the recognition of a $9.5 million contingent loss related to ~~common shareholders primarily~~

~~resulted~~cash that was stolen from a ~~$2.1 million decrease in~~third-party armored car carrier facility that was used by the Company, and lower net interest income, partially offset by lower provision for credit losses, and by a ~~$918.0 thousand decrease~~reduction in ~~non-interest~~ income ~~and a $659.0 thousand increase in non-interest~~tax expense.

Net Interest Income: Our net interest income was ~~$15.9~~$15.7 million for the ~~second~~third quarter of 2023 compared to ~~$18.0~~$19.3 million for the ~~second~~third quarter of 2022, a decrease of ~~$2.1~~$3.6 million, or ~~11.7%~~18.7%. Net interest income decreased during the three months ended September 30, 2023, primarily due to a $9.1 million increase in interest expense on deposits. Interest income increased $6.8 million, or ~~33.0%~~30.3%, during the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 as compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in interest income was primarily due to an increase of ~~$6.3~~$6.4 million in interest and fees on loans, due to higher loan balances and market interest rates, as well as a ~~$412.0 thousand~~$0.2 million increase in interest on deposits with banks. The increase in interest income was partially offset by an increase in interest expense during the three months ended September 30, 2023 of ~~$8.9~~$10.4 million, or ~~350.5%~~341.5%, due to an increase in market interest rates on deposits and the overall mix of deposits of ~~$7.3~~$9.1 million and an increase in interest on borrowings of ~~$1.6~~$1.3 million, due to an increase in borrowing levels at market interest rates.

Provision for credit losses: For the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the provision for credit losses was ~~$500.0 thousand,~~$0.3 million, compared to ~~$350.0 thousand~~$0.6 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. The provision for credit losses during the ~~second~~third quarter of 2023 was primarily driven by an increase in outstanding loan balances, ~~and specific reserves required on a collateral-dependent loan.~~as well as an increase in the qualitative loss factor for the residential 1 to 4 family loan portfolio due to an increase in delinquent loan balances.

Non-interest Income: Our non-interest income was ~~$1.6~~$1.8 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, a decrease of ~~$918.0 thousand,~~$0.2 million, compared to ~~$2.5~~$2.0 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in service fees on deposit account of ~~$382.0 thousand,~~$0.1 million, primarily attributable to a decrease in our cannabis banking deposit accounts, ~~a decrease in gain on the sale of OREO of $281.0 thousand,~~ as well as a decrease in loan fees of ~~$200.0 thousand.~~$0.2 million, partially offset by a gain in other income of $0.2 million.

Non-interest Expense: Our non-interest expense increased ~~$661.0 thousand,~~$9.6 million, or ~~11.5%~~151.9%, to ~~$6.4~~$15.8 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, from ~~$5.7~~$6.3 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily due to a $9.5 million contingent loss related to cash that was stolen from a third-party armored car carrier facility that was used by the Company. The recognition of the loss during the quarter was driven by ~~a $482.0 thousand increase in compensation and benefits and a $141.0 thousand increase in OREO expense. The increase in compensation and benefits was mainly driven by~~the completion of an ~~increase in salaries, and a decrease in deferred origination costs attributed to lower loan origination volume. The increase in OREO costs is due to higher costs to maintain~~outside forensic accountant's report confirming the ~~properties, as well as legal expenses related to the OREO properties.~~loss.

Income Tax: Income tax expense was ~~$2.5~~$0.3 million on income before taxes of ~~$10.6~~$1.4 million for the three months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, resulting in an effective tax rate of ~~23.2%~~24.8%, compared to income tax expense of ~~$3.7~~$3.9 million on income before taxes of $14.4 million for the same period of 2022, resulting in an effective tax rate of ~~25.6%~~27.0%.

~~Six~~Nine Months Ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 Compared to ~~Six~~Nine Months Ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022

Net income: Our net income available to common shareholders for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 decreased ~~$1.6~~$11.1 million, or ~~7.5%~~35.3%, to ~~$19.2~~$20.3 million compared to ~~$20.8~~$31.3 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. Earnings per share were ~~$1.61~~$1.70 per basic common share and ~~$1.59~~$1.67 per diluted common share for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 compared to ~~$1.75~~$2.63 per basic common share and ~~$1.71~~$2.58 per diluted common share for the same period last year. The decrease in net income available to common shareholders primarily resulted from a decrease in net interest income of ~~$2.1~~$5.7 million, a decrease in non-interest income of ~~$1.2~~$1.4 million, and an increase in non-interest expense of ~~$1.7~~$11.3 million, partially offset by a decrease in the provision for credit losses of ~~$2.4~~$2.6 million.

Net interest income: Our net interest income decreased ~~$2.1~~$5.7 million, or ~~5.9%~~10.5%, to ~~$33.0~~$48.7 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, compared to ~~$35.1~~$54.4 million for the same period last year. Interest income for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, increased ~~$13.1~~$19.9 million to ~~$53.3~~$82.4 million, or ~~32.8%~~31.9%, from ~~$40.1~~$62.5 million for the same period of 2022. The increase in interest income was primarily due to an increase in interest and fees on loans of ~~$11.7~~$18.1 million due to an increase in market interest rates and balances outstanding, and an increase in interest earned on Federal Reserve Bank ("FRB") deposits of ~~$1.4~~$1.7 million. Interest expense increased ~~$15.2~~$25.6 million, or ~~300.1%~~317.7%, for the ~~year to date June~~nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to the same period in 2022, primarily due to an increase in interest paid on deposits of ~~$13.0~~$22.2 million, or ~~356.5%~~375.9%, primarily due to an increase in market interest rates and a shift in deposit mix. Further contributing to the increase in interest expense was an increase in interest on borrowings of ~~$2.2~~$3.5 million, or ~~155.0%~~160.2%, due to an increase in borrowing levels and higher market interest rates.

Provision for credit losses: The provision for credit losses was a recovery of ~~$1.9~~$1.6 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, compared to a provision for credit losses of ~~$350.0 thousand~~$1.0 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. The recovery in the provision for credit losses for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 was primarily related to decreases in

loss factors related to the construction, commercial owner occupied, and residential 1 to 4 family investment loan portfolios from December 31, 2022, partially offset by increases in outstanding balance. On January 1, 2023 we implemented ASU 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Credit Losses. This resulted in an increase to the allowance for credit losses of $1.9 million. For more information about our provision

for credit losses and our allowance for loan and lease losses and loss experience, see “Financial Condition-Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses” below and Note 4 - Loans And Allowance For Credit Losses on Loans to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Non-interest income: Our non-interest income was ~~$3.4~~$5.2 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, a decrease of ~~$1.2~~$1.4 million, or ~~26.4%~~20.7%, compared to ~~$4.6~~$6.6 million for the same period last year. The decrease is primarily attributable to a decrease in service fees on deposit accounts of ~~$483.0 thousand,~~$0.6 million, a decrease in the gain on the sale of OREO assets of ~~$328.0 thousand,~~$0.3 million, and a decrease in other loan fees of ~~$297.0 thousand.~~$0.5 million. Fee income for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 from commercial deposit accounts of depositors who do business in the cannabis-related industry totaled ~~$2.0~~$2.9 million, compared to ~~$2.5~~$3.6 million for the same period last year. Fee income is included in service fees on deposit accounts in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Income.

Non-interest expense: Our non-interest expense increased ~~$1.7~~$11.3 million to ~~$13.1~~$29.0 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, from ~~$11.4~~$17.7 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2022. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily due to a $9.5 million contingent loss related to cash that was stolen from a third-party armored car carrier facility that was used by the Company. The recognition of the loss during the quarter was driven by the completion of an outside forensic accountant's report confirming the loss. Also contributing to the increase in non-interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was an increase in compensation and benefits of ~~$1.4~~$1.5 million, ~~as well as~~and OREO expense of ~~$281.0 thousand.~~$0.2 million. The increase in compensation and benefits was primarily driven by an increase in salary expense of ~~$681.5 thousand,~~$0.4 million, and a decrease in deferred origination costs of ~~$554.0 thousand,~~$0.8 million, as a result of lower loan origination volume. The increase in OREO costs is due to the increase in costs associated with the management and disposition of our foreclosed properties.

Income Tax: Income tax expense was ~~$5.9~~$6.2 million on income before taxes of ~~$25.2~~$26.5 million for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, resulting in an effective tax rate of 23.5%, compared to income tax expense of ~~$7.1~~$11.0 million on income before taxes of ~~$27.9~~$42.4 million for the same period of 2022, resulting in an effective tax rate of ~~25.4%~~25.9%.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the interest earned on investment securities, loans and other interest-earning assets minus the interest paid on deposits, short-term borrowings and long-term debt. The net interest margin is the average yield of net interest income on average earning assets. Net interest income and the net interest margin in any one period can be significantly affected by a variety of factors including the mix and overall size of our earning assets portfolio and the cost of funding those assets.

The following tables presents the average daily balances of assets, liabilities and equity and the respective interest earned or paid on interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, as well as average annualized rates, for the periods indicated.

Financial Condition

General

At ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the Company’s total assets were $1.98 billion, a decrease of ~~$2.4~~$1.2 million, or 0.1%, from December 31, 2022. The decrease in total assets was primarily attributable to a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of ~~$44.7~~$55.4 million, partially offset by an increase in loans receivable, and an increase in FHLBNY restricted stock, and other assets. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents was primarily due to cash withdrawn from deposits, as well as an increase in loans receivable, partially offset by an increase in borrowings. Loans increased ~~$34.6~~$48.6 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2023, primarily due to increases in loan balances classified as ~~CRE~~commercial real estate ("CRE") owner occupied ~~and~~loans, residential 1-4 family investment loans, and multi-family loans, partially offset by a decrease in the construction loan portfolio, compared to the loan balances at December 31, 2022.

Total liabilities were ~~$1.70~~$1.71 billion at ~~June~~September 30, 2023. This represented a ~~$15.6~~$13.2 million, or ~~0.9%~~0.8%, decrease, from $1.72 billion at December 31, 2022. The decrease in total liabilities was primarily due to a decrease in total deposits, which decreased ~~$129.6~~$43.0 million, or ~~8.2%~~2.7%, to ~~$1.45~~$1.53 billion at ~~June~~September 30, 2023, from $1.58 billion at December 31, 2022. The decrease in deposits was attributable to a decrease in non-interest demand deposits of ~~$81.6~~$121.4 million and savings deposits of ~~$59.6~~$92.4 million, partially offset by an increase in time deposits of ~~$21.5~~$11.4 million, an increase in interest checking deposits of ~~$16.5~~$28.2 million, and an increase in money market balances of ~~$11.4~~$117.8 million. The decrease in total deposits was partially offset by an increase in borrowings of ~~$113.0~~$28.0 million, driven by an increase in FHLBNY ~~advances of $103.0 million, and an increase in FRB advances of $10.0 million.~~advances.

Total equity was ~~$279.1~~$278.0 million and $266.0 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, an increase of ~~$13.1~~$11.9 million from December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to the retention of earnings, partially offset by the payment of ~~$4.3~~$6.5 million of cash dividends, and $2.1 million adoption of ASC 326.

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents decreased ~~$44.7~~$55.4 million to ~~$137.5~~$126.7 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2023 from $182.2 million at December 31, 2022, a decrease of ~~24.5%~~30.4%. The decrease was primarily due to cash withdrawn from deposits and the funding of loans, partially offset by an increase in borrowings.

Investment securities

Total investment securities decreased to ~~$17.8~~$16.6 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2023, from $18.7 million at December 31, 2022, a decrease of ~~$986.0 thousand~~$2.2 million or ~~5.3%~~11.5%. The decrease was attributed to normal pay downs of ~~$1.0~~$2.0 million, ~~partially offset by an increase~~and a decrease in the fair market valuation of ~~$22.0 thousand.~~$0.2 million. For detailed information on the composition and maturity distribution of our investment portfolio, see NOTE 3 - Investment Securities in the notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Loans

Our lending relationships are primarily with small to mid-sized businesses and individual consumers residing in and around Southern New Jersey and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. We have also expanded our lending footprint in other areas. We focus our lending efforts primarily in three lending areas: residential mortgage loans, commercial mortgage loans, and construction loans.

We originate residential mortgage loans with adjustable and fixed-rates that are secured by 1- 4 family and multifamily residential properties. These loans are generally underwritten under terms, conditions and documentation acceptable to the secondary mortgage market. A substantial majority of such loans can be pledged for potential borrowings.

We originate commercial real estate loans that are secured by commercial real estate properties that are owner and non-owner occupied real estate properties. These loans are typically larger in dollar size and are primarily secured by office buildings, retail buildings, warehouses and general purpose business space. The commercial mortgage loans generally have maturities of twenty years, but re-price within five years.

The construction loans we originate provide real estate acquisition, development and construction funds to individuals and real estate developers. The loans are secured by the properties under development. The construction loan funds are disbursed periodically at pre-specified stages of completion.

We also originate commercial and industrial loans, which provide liquidity to businesses in the form of lines of credit and may be secured by accounts receivable, inventory, equipment or other assets. In addition, we have a small consumer loan portfolio which provides loans to individual borrowers.

Loans receivable: Loans receivable increased to ~~$1.79~~$1.80 billion at ~~June~~September 30, 2023 from $1.75 billion at December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to increases in the CRE owner occupied loans, ~~and~~residential - 1 to 4 family, residential - 1 to 4 family investment loans,

and residential - multifamily loans, partially offset by a decrease in the construction loan portfolio. Loans receivable ~~excluding loans held for sale,~~ as of ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, consisted of the following:

Deposits

At ~~June~~September 30, 2023, total deposits decreased to ~~$1.45~~$1.53 billion from $1.58 billion at December 31, 2022, a decrease of ~~$129.6~~$43.0 million, or ~~8.2%~~2.7%. The decrease in deposits was primarily due to a decrease in non-interest bearing demand deposits, and a decrease in savings deposits, partially offset by increases in money market, checking, and time deposit accounts. The decrease in non-interest bearing demand deposits was mainly ~~driven by withdrawals from~~primarily due to a decrease in our cannabis related deposits, which decreased ~~$65.7~~$83.5 million, from $177.3 million at December 31, 2022, to ~~$111.6~~$93.9 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2023, as well as a decrease in business checking of ~~$12.8~~$26.2 million during the same time period.

Borrowings

Total borrowings were ~~$239.2~~$154.2 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and $126.1 million at December 31, 2022. The increase in borrowings is due to the increase of ~~$103.0~~$28.0 million in FHLBNY ~~advances, and $10.0 million in FRB~~ advances. ~~$128.0~~$91.2 million of the outstanding FHLBNY ~~advances, and the $10.0 million FRB~~ advances have short-term maturities.

Equity

Total equity increased to ~~$279.1~~$278.0 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2023 from $266.0 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of ~~$13.1~~$11.9 million, or ~~4.9%~~4.5%, primarily due to the retention of earnings from the period, partially offset by ~~$4.3~~the payment of $6.5 million ofin cash dividends, and $2.1 million resulting from the adoption of ASC 326.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity is a measure of our ability to generate cash to support asset growth, meet deposit withdrawals, satisfy other contractual obligations, and otherwise operate on an ongoing basis. At ~~June~~September 30, 2023, our cash position was ~~$137.5~~$126.7 million. We invest cash that is in excess of our immediate operating needs primarily in our interest-bearing account at the Federal Reserve.

Our primary source of funding has been deposits. Funds from other operations, financing arrangements, investment securities available-for-sale also provide significant sources of funding. The Company seeks to rely primarily on core deposits from customers to provide stable and cost-effective sources of funding to support loan growth. We focus on customer service which we believe has resulted in a history of customer loyalty. Stability, low cost and customer loyalty comprise key characteristics of core deposits.

We also use brokered deposits as a funding source, which is more volatile than core deposits. The Bank also joined IntraFi Financial Network to secure an additional alternative funding source. IntraFi provides the Bank an additional source of external funds through their weekly CDARS® settlement process. The rates are comparable to other brokered ~~deposits and can be obtained within a shorter period of time than brokered deposits.~~deposit sources. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the Company had ~~$119.4~~$177.5 million of brokered deposits sourced from IntraFi. While deposit accounts comprise the vast majority of our funding needs, we maintain secured borrowing lines with the FHLBNY. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the Company had lines of credit with the FHLBNY of ~~$957.5~~$945.3 million, of which ~~$186.2~~$111.2 million was outstanding, and an additional ~~$50.0~~$60.0 million from ~~a letter~~two letters of credit for securing public funds. The remaining borrowing capacity was ~~$721.4~~$774.1 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2023.

In the second quarter of 2023, we opened a secured borrowing line with the FRB under the Bank Term Funding Program ("BTFP"). The BTFP is secured by certain eligible investment securities. As of ~~June~~September 30, 2023, we had a line of credit under this program of ~~$13.8~~$13.3 million, of which ~~$10.0 million~~zero was outstanding. ~~The remaining borrowing capacity under this program was $3.8 million as of June 30, 2023.~~

We had outstanding loan commitments of ~~$124.9~~$113.7 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2023. Our loan commitments are normally originated with the full amount of collateral. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The funding requirements for such commitments occur on a measured basis over time and would be funded by normal deposit growth.

The following is a discussion of our cash flows for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023 and 2022.

Cash provided by operating activities was ~~$14.7~~$14.0 million in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, compared to ~~$21.9~~$34.3 million for the same period in the prior year. The decrease in operating cash flow was primarily due to the increase in ~~accrued interest receivable,~~prepaid taxes, the recovery of provision for credit losses, and the decrease in net income.

Cash used in investing activities was ~~$38.5~~$48.0 million in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, compared to cash used in investing activities of ~~$59.4~~$191.6 million in the same period last year. The decrease in cash used in the investing activities was primarily due to the decrease in cash outflow from the origination of loans during the ~~period, partially offset by the net purchase of FHLBNY restricted stock.~~period.

Cash used in financing activities was ~~$20.9~~$21.4 million in the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2023, compared to cash used in financing activities of ~~$165.8~~$245.9 million in the same period of last year. The decrease in cash used in financing activities was driven by a net increase in FHLBNY borrowings of ~~$103.0 million, an increase in FRB advances of $10.0~~$28.0 million, a decrease in the withdrawal of noninterest-bearing deposits of ~~$19.0~~$38.5 million, and ~~a decrease~~growth in ~~the withdrawal of~~ interest-bearing deposits of ~~$13.6 million.~~$78.4 million compared to net withdrawals of $73.2 million in the prior year.

Capital Adequacy

We utilize a comprehensive process for assessing the Company’s overall capital adequacy. We actively review our capital strategies in light of current and anticipated business risks, future growth opportunities, industry standards, and compliance with regulatory requirements. The assessment of overall capital adequacy depends on a variety of factors, including asset quality, liquidity, earnings stability, competitive forces, economic conditions, and strength of management. Our objective is to maintain capital at an amount commensurate with our risk profile and risk tolerance objectives, and to meet both regulatory and market expectations. We primarily manage our capital through the retention of earnings. We also use other means to manage our capital. Total equity increased ~~$13.1~~$11.9 million at ~~June~~September 30, 2023, from December 31, 2022, primarily from the Company’s net income of

~~$19.3~~ $20.3 million for the period, net of common and preferred stock dividends of ~~$4.3~~$6.5 million and the adoption of ASC 326 of $2.1 million.

Banks and bank holding companies are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank and the

Company must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items, as calculated under the regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Prompt corrective action provisions are not applicable to bank holding companies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can result in regulatory actions.

Under the capital rules issued by the Federal ~~Banking~~banking agencies, the Company and the Bank elected to exclude the effects of certain Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”) items from its regulatory capital calculation. At ~~June~~September 30, 2023, the Bank and the Company were both considered “well capitalized”.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Company’s accounting policies are more fully described in Note 1 of the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022. As disclosed in Note 1, the preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. The Company believes that the following discussion addresses the Company’s most critical accounting policies, which are those that are most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments.

Allowance for Credit Losses: Our allowances for credit losses represents management's best estimate of probable losses inherent in our investment and loan portfolios, excluding those loans accounted for under fair value. Our process for determining the allowance for credit losses is discussed in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Our determination of the allowance for credit losses is based on periodic evaluations of the loan and lease portfolios and other relevant factors, broken down into vintage based on year of origination. These critical estimates include significant use of our own historical data and other qualitative, and quantitative data. These evaluations are inherently subjective, as they require material estimates and may be susceptible to significant change. Our allowance for credit losses is comprised of two components, a specific allowance and a general calculation. A specific allowance is calculated for loans and leases that do not share similar risk characteristics with other financial assets, and include collateral dependent loans. A loan is considered to be collateral dependent when foreclosure of the underlying collateral is probable. Parke has elected to apply the practical expedient to measure expected credit losses of a collateral dependent asset using the fair value of the collateral, less any estimated costs to sell, when foreclosure is not probable but repayment of the loan is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, and the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. The general based component covers loans and leases on which there are expected credit losses that are not yet individually identifiable. The allowance calculation and determination process is dependent on the use of key assumptions. Key reserve assumptions and estimation processes react to and are influenced by observed changes in loan portfolio performance experience, the financial strength of the borrower, projected industry outlook, and economic conditions.

The process of determining the level of the allowance for credit losses requires a high degree of judgment. To the extent actual outcomes differ from our estimates, additional provision for loan and lease losses may be required that would reduce future earnings.

Fair Value Estimates: ASC 820 - Fair Value Measurements defines fair value as a market-based measurement and is the price that would be received to sell a financial asset or paid to transfer a financial liability in an orderly transaction between market

participants at the measurement date. We classify fair value measurements of financial instruments based on the three-level fair value hierarchy in the accounting standards. We are required to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs in measuring fair value. The fair values of assets may include using estimates, assumptions, and judgments. Valuations of assets or liabilities using techniques non quoted market price are sensitive to assumptions used for the significant inputs. Assets and liabilities carried at fair value inherently result in a higher degree of financial statement volatility. Changes in

underlying factors, assumptions, or estimates used for estimating fair values could materially impact our future financial condition and results of operations.

The majority of our assets recorded at fair value are our investment securities available for sale. The fair value of our available for sale securities are provided by independent third-party valuation services. We may also have a small amount of SBA loans recorded at fair value, which represents the face value of the guaranteed portion of the SBA loans pending settlement. OREO is recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis and is based on the values of independent third-party full appraisals, less costs to sell (a range of 5% to 10%). Appraisals are updated every 12 months or sooner if we have identified possible further deterioration in value. Refer to Note 7. Fair Value in the Notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for further information.

Income Taxes: In the normal course of business, we and our subsidiaries enter into transactions for which the tax treatment is unclear or subject to varying interpretations. We evaluate and assess the relative risks and merits of the tax treatment of transactions, filing positions, filing methods and taxable income calculations after considering statutes, regulations, and other information, and maintain tax accruals consistent with our evaluation of these relative risks and merits. The result of our evaluation and assessment is by its nature an estimate.

When tax returns are filed, it is highly likely that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that ultimately would be sustained. The benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination. The evaluation of a tax position taken is considered by itself and not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more likely than not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above is reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheet along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination.

Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (“SEC”) rules and forms.

There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

Absecon Gardens Condominium Association v. Parke Bank Matter

Absecon Gardens Condominium Association v. Parke Bank, One Mechanic Street, et al, Superior Court of New Jersey, Law Division, Atlantic County, Docket No. ATL-L-2321-21. The Company is the successor to the interests of the developer of the Absecon Gardens Condominium project in Absecon NJ. Some of the unit owners have suggested that the Company is responsible for contributions and/or repair for alleged damages purportedly relating to construction. The owners filed a Complaint, alleging that the damages total approximately $1.7 million. The matter is in the early stages of discovery so it is difficult to determine

whether that amount accurately reflects the claimed damages, or whether the Company is in any way culpable for the damages. At this time it is too early to predict whether an unfavorable outcome will result. The Company is vigorously defending this matter.

In the normal course of business, there are outstanding various contingent liabilities such as claims and legal action, which are not reflected in the financial statements. In the opinion of management, no material losses are anticipated as a result of these actions or claims.

Other than the foregoing, there were no material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or of which any of their property is the subject.
