The ACL was determined using a weighted-average of various economic scenarios provided by a third-party and incorporated qualitative components. There have not been material changes in our policies and methodology to estimate the ACL in the six months ended June 30, 2024. The ACL decreased by $1.1 million, or 1.2% at June 30, 2024, compared to December 31, 2023. The ACL as a percentage of total loans held for investment was 1.41% at June 30, 2024 compared to 1.39% at December 31, 2023. The provision for credit losses on loans in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2024 was partially offset by net charge-offs. In the second quarter of 2024, the provision for credit losses on loans included $12.8 million to cover for charge-offs, $12.7 million in new specific reserves for non-performing loans, and $1.8 million due to loan composition and volume changes. These provision requirements were partially offset by a release of $5.2 million due to general credit quality factors, as well as, macroeconomic factor updates and a $4.4 million release due to the Houston loan portfolio classification as held-for-sale. In the first half of 2024, the provision for credit losses on loans included $24.5 million to cover charge-offs, $12.7 million in new specific reserves for non-performing loans and $4.2 million due to loan composition and volume changes. These provision requirements were partially offset by a release of $6.8 million due to credit quality and macroeconomic factor updates and a $4.4 million release due to the Houston loan portfolio classification as held-for-sale. The following is a summary of net proceeds from sales of loans held for investment by portfolio segment: Three Months Ended June 30, Real Estate Commercial Financial Consumer Total 2024 $ — $ 4,681 $ — $ — $ 4,681 2023 $ 3,575 $ 887 $ — $ — $ 4,462 Six Months Ended June 30, Real Estate Commercial Financial Consumer Total 2024 $ 1,768 $ 65,628 $ — $ — $ 67,396 2023 $ 13,575 $ 887 $ — $ — $ 14,462 Loan Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty The Company modifies loans related to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties by providing multiple types of concessions. Typically, one type of concession, such as a term extension, is granted initially. If the borrower continues to experience financial difficulty, another concession, such as principal forgiveness, may be granted. The Company had no new loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. There were no loans that defaulted in the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 and had been modified within 12 months preceding the payment default related to these modifications. Credit Risk Quality The sufficiency of the ACL is reviewed at least quarterly by the Chief Risk Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. The Board of Directors considers the ACL as part of its review of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company believes the ACL to be sufficient to absorb expected credit losses in the loans portfolio in accordance with GAAP. Loans may be classified but not considered collateral dependent due to one of the following reasons: (1) the Company has established minimum dollar amount thresholds for individual assessment of expected credit losses, which results in loans under those thresholds being excluded from individual assessment of expected credit losses; and (2) classified loans may be considered in the assessment because the Company expects to collect all amounts due. 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 primarily to (i) the risk rating of loans, (ii) the loan payment status, (iii) net charge-offs, (iv) nonperforming loans and (v) the general economic conditions in the main geographies where the Company’s borrowers conduct their businesses. The Company considers the views of its regulators as to loan classification and in the process of estimating expected credit losses. The Company utilizes an internal risk rating system to identify the risk characteristics of each of its loans, or group of homogeneous loans such as consumer loans. Internal risk ratings are updated on a continuous basis on a scale from 1 (worst credit quality) to 10 (best credit quality). Loans are then grouped in five master risk categories for purposes of monitoring rising levels of potential loss risks and to enable the activation of collection or recovery processes as defined in the Company’s Credit Risk Policy. Internal risk ratings are considered the most meaningful indicator of credit quality for commercial loans. Generally, internal risk ratings for commercial real estate loans and commercial loans with balances over $3 million are updated at least annually and more frequently if circumstances indicate that a change in risk rating may be warranted. For consumer loans, single-family residential loans and smaller commercial loans under $3 million, risk ratings are updated based on the loans past due status. The following is a summary of the master risk categories and their associated loan risk ratings, as well as a description of the general characteristics of the master risk category: Loan Risk Rating Master risk category Nonclassified 4 to 10 Classified 1 to 3 Substandard 3 Doubtful 2 Loss 1 N onclassified This category includes loans considered as Pass (5-10) and Special Mention (4). A loan classified as Pass is considered of sufficient quality to preclude a lower adverse rating. These loans are generally well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the borrower or by the value of any collateral received. Special Mention loans are defined as having potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention which, if left uncorrected, could potentially result in further credit deterioration. Special Mention loans may include loans originated with certain credit weaknesses or that developed those weaknesses since their origination. Classified This classification indicates the presence of credit weaknesses which could make loan repayment unlikely, such as partial or total late payments and other contractual defaults. Substandard A loan classified substandard is inadequately protected by the sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or the collateral pledged. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the credit weaknesses are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard loans, does not have to exist in individual assets. Doubtful These loans have all the weaknesses inherent in a loan 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. These are poor quality loans in which neither the collateral, if any, nor the financial condition of the borrower presently ensure collection in full in a reasonable period of time. As a result, the possibility of loss is extremely high. Loss Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that the continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the assets have absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but not to the point where a write-off should be deferred even though partial recoveries may occur in the future. This classification is based upon current facts, not probabilities. As a result, loans in this category should be promptly charged off in the period in which they are determined to be uncollectible.

collateral-dependent when the repayment of the loan is expected to be provided by the sale or operation of the underlying collateral. The Company performs an individual evaluation as part of the process of calculating the allowance for credit losses related to these loans. The following tables present the amortized cost basis of collateral dependent loans related to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty by type of collateral as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023: As of June 30, 2024 Collateral Type (in thousands) Commercial Real Estate Residential Real Estate Other Total Specific Reserves Real estate loans Single-family residential (1) $ — $ 738 $ — $ 738 $ — Owner occupied (2) 26,292 — — 26,292 — 26,292 738 — 27,030 — Commercial loans 3,344 — 68,162 71,506 17,330 Consumer loans and overdrafts — — — — — Total $ 29,636 $ 738 $ 68,162 $ 98,536 $ 17,330 _________________ (1) Weighted-average loan-to-value was approximately 61.8% at June 30, 2024.

(2) Weighted-average loan-to-value was approximately 73.0% at December 31, 2023. Collateral dependent loans are evaluated on an individual basis for purposes of determining expected credit losses. For collateral-dependent loans where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and the Company expects repayment of the financial asset to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral, the ACL is measured based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral and the amortized cost basis of the loan as of the measurement date. When repayment is expected to be from the operation of the collateral, expected credit losses are calculated as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the loan exceeds the present value of expected cash flows from the operation of the collateral. When repayment is expected to be from the sale of the collateral, expected credit losses are calculated as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the loan exceeds the fair value of the underlying collateral less estimated costs to sell. The ACL may be zero if the fair value of the collateral at the measurement date exceeds the amortized cost basis of the loan. |
