Additionally: • For the commercial and industrial portfolio, changes in the loan product mix further increased the provision for credit losses; • For the commercial real estate portfolio, the increase in provision from loan growth was partially offset by a decrease in uncertainty in the forward outlook for interest rates; • For the multifamily and commercial mortgage portfolios, the increase in provision from loan growth was further increased by declines in the related prices within the third-party macroeconomic forecasts in the related price index. L oan products within each portfolio contain varying collateral types which impact the estimate of the loss given default utilized in the calculation of the allowance. For further discussion of the model method of estimating expected lifetime credit losses see Note 1 — “Organizations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.” The following table presents LTVs for the Company’s real estate loans outstanding as of June 30, 2023: Total Real Estate Loans Single Family - Mortgage & Warehouse Multifamily and Commercial Mortgage Commercial Weighted-Average LTV 48.9 % 57.4 % 53.8 % 40.8 % Median LTV 53.0 % 55.0 % 50.0 % 38.0 % The Company’s effective weighted-average LTV was 47.0% for real estate loans originated during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

There was no interest income recognized on non-accrual loans for the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022 and 2021. From time to time, the Company modifies loan terms temporarily for borrowers who are experiencing financial stress. These loans are performing and accruing and generally return to the original loan terms after the modification term expires. Approximately 1.77% of our nonaccrual loans at June 30, 2023 were considered troubled debt restructurings (“TDRs”), compared to 1.18% at June 30, 2022. Borrowers who make timely payments after TDRs are considered non-performing for at least six months. Generally, after six months of timely payments, those TDRs are reclassified from the nonaccrual loan category to performing and return to accrual status. There was no amount in performing TDRs for each of the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022 and 2021. There was no interest recognized on loans that were TDRs for the years ended June 30, 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Credit Quality Indicators . The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans based on credit risk. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings. Pass . Loans classified as pass are well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the fair value of any underlying collateral, less cost to acquire and sell in a timely manner. Special Mention . Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution’s credit position at some future date. Substandard . Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Doubtful . Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable. The Company reviews and grades loans following a continuous review process, featuring coverage of all loan types and business lines at least quarterly. Continuous reviewing provides more effective risk monitoring because it immediately tests for potential impacts caused by changes in personnel, policy, products or underwriting standards.

Credit Risk Concentration Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of borrowers are engaged in similar business activities in the same geographic region, or when they have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic conditions. Concentrations of 10% or more existed in the Single Family, Multifamily and Commercial Real Estate loan categories at June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022. At June 30, 2023, California accounted for 71.4% and New York accounted for 11.0% of loans in the Single Family loan category. California accounted for 69.1% and New York accounted for 19.7% of loans in the Multifamily loan category.
