Wayzata, United States / Minnesota, July 28th, 2025, Chainwire Mill City Ventures III, Ltd. Announces $450,000,000 Private Placement to Initiate Sui Treasury Strategy Upon the closing of the Private Placement, Mill City will adopt a Sui Treasury Strategy Mill City intends to continue its short-term non-bank lending and specialty finance business Marius Barnett and Stephen Mackintosh, Co-founders of Karatage, will become Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Company and Chief Investment Officer of the Company, respectively, effective upon the closing of the Private Placement Industry-First Relationship with Sui Foundation Provides Institutional-Grade Gateway for Exposure to Only Blockchain Built for Mass Adoption Mill City Ventures III, Ltd. (" Mill City" or the ' Company ') (NASDAQ:MCVT), a non-bank lender and specialty finance company, today announced that it has entered into securities purchase agreements (the ' Securities Purchase Agreements ') for a private investment in public equity for the purchase and sale of 83,025,830 shares of common stock (or common stock equivalents in lieu thereof) at a price of $5.42 per share for expected aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $ 450,000,000, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses (the ' Private Placement ', or the ' Offering '). Karatage Opportunities (' Karatage '), the London-based proprietary hedge fund specializing in digital assets and emerging technology investments, founded by Marius Barnett and Stephen Mackintosh, acted as the lead investor, with an equivalent investment from the Sui Foundation, an independent organization dedicated to the advancement and adoption of the Sui network. As a significant early investor in the Sui ecosystem, Karatage has established itself as a strategic partner to Mysten Labs, the original contributors to Sui, with deep operational experience across the Sui network. The Offering included participation by prominent firms and infrastructure providers Big Brain Holdings, Galaxy Digital Inc (Nasdaq: GLXY) and Dr Jack Kong – NLABS Fund as well as investment from Pantera Capital , M2, Electric Capital, GSR, Selini, Protagonist, ParaFi Capital, Borderless, dao5, Arrington Capital, Comma3 Ventures, FalconX, Paper Ventures and Maven 11 amongst others. Galaxy Asset Management will serve as the Asset Manager. The closing of the Offering is expected to occur on or about July 31, 2025, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The Company intends to use approximately 98% of the net proceeds from the Private Placement to acquire the native cryptocurrency of the Sui blockchain commonly referred to as 'SUI', and approximately 2% of the net proceeds from the Private Placement to fund the Company's short-term lending business. SUI will serve as the Company's primary treasury reserve asset. A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners is acting as the sole placement agent in connection with the offering. Upon closing of the Offering, the Company intends to appoint two new members to the Company's board of directors (the ' Board '). The new Board members provide the strong and experienced leadership the Company needs as the Company pivots to a SUI treasury strategy: Marius Barnett (Co-Founder of Karatage) will serve as the Chairman of the Board. A veteran operator and investor in digital assets, Mr. Barnett has a track record in building businesses across real estate, infrastructure and energy. Dana Wagner will serve as an independent Board Director. As a current board member at Coinbase Custody Trust Company and former general counsel at Square, Mr. Wagner has served in senior-level legal roles for category-defining firms at the cutting edge of financial technology. Stephen Mackintosh (Co-Founder and General Partner at Karatage) will serve as the Company's Chief Investment Officer. With previous experience in artificial intelligence and deep tech, Mr. Mackintosh brings extensive experience across the Sui ecosystem as he manages the SUI treasury strategy for the Company. 'We're launching at a pivotal moment when both institutional crypto and AI are reaching critical mass — creating significant opportunities across blockchain infrastructure,' said Stephen Mackintosh, the proposed Chief Investment Officer of Mill City and General Partner at Karatage. 'We believe that Sui is well positioned for mass adoption with the speed and efficiency institutions require for crypto at scale, plus the technical architecture capable of supporting AI workloads while maintaining security and decentralization.' 'Sui was built to provide the scalability, speed, and security needed to support the next generation of decentralized applications and real-world crypto use-cases for consumers and institutions alike — from stablecoins to artificial intelligence to gaming and broader finance,' added Christian Thompson, Managing Director at the Sui Foundation. Mill City intends to acquire SUI tokens on the open market, as well as via institutional-grade deal flow typically reserved for crypto funds and a negotiated purchase and sale agreement with Sui Foundation — a treasury strategy now accessible through a publicly traded structure with daily liquidity. As the sole SUI treasury with support from the Sui Foundation, Mill City and the Sui Foundation team will share information about the technology and ecosystem growth, establishing it as one of the only foundation-supported crypto treasury strategies. 'The future belongs to crypto, AI, and stablecoins — and they all need infrastructure that can handle real scale. That's Sui,' said Adeniyi Abiodun, Co-Founder and Chief Product Officer of Mysten Labs. 'We believe that everything has been leading up to the right time to make Sui's founding vision a reality — and in our view, the moment is now.' The Offering is being made in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirement under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the " Securities Act"), and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder, and applicable state securities laws. Accordingly, the securities offered in the Private Placement may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from the registration requirement of the Securities Act and such applicable state securities laws.

Sierra Bancorp reported consolidated net income of $10.6 million, or $0.78 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2025, compared to $10.3 million, or $0.71 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2024. On a linked quarter (three months ended March 31, 2025) basis, the Company reported an increase of $1.5 million, or 17%, in net income. Section 1.01 Highlights for the second quarter of 2025 (unless otherwise stated): Improved Earnings and Key Ratios Increased Diluted Earnings per Share by $0.13, or 19%, from the prior linked quarter. Higher Return on Average Assets of 1.16%, as compared to 1.02% in the prior linked quarter. Improved Return on Average Equity to 12.08%, as compared to 10.44% in the prior linked quarter. Favorable change of Efficiency Ratio (1) to 59.43%, as compared to 60.62% to the prior linked quarter.

Overall primary and secondary liquidity sources of $2.3 billion at June 30, 2025. _______________________________ (1) See reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measurement in "Non-GAAP Financial Measures." Expand 'If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.' – African proverb 'Our team continues to provide the best banking service to our customers and communities, even as we face uncertainty and potential economic challenges,' stated Kevin McPhaill, CEO and President. 'The Bank's second quarter results reflect our team's efforts with strong loan and deposit growth. We are proud of our bankers, and we will remain diligent, committed, and conscientious as we work to make each of our communities stronger.' concluded Mr. McPhaill. For the first six months of 2025, the Company recognized net income of $19.7 million, or $1.43 per diluted share, as compared to $19.6 million, or $1.35 per diluted share, for the same period in 2024. The Company's improved financial performance metrics for the first half of 2025 include a net interest margin of 3.71% and an efficiency ratio of 60.02%, as compared to a net interest margin of 3.66% and efficiency ratio of 62.51% for the same period in 2024. Quarterly Income Changes (comparisons to the second quarter of 2024) Net income for the second quarter of 2025 increased $0.4 million, or 4%, to $10.6 million. Net interest income improved $0.5 million and noninterest income increased $0.9 million, or 12%. These favorable changes were partially offset by an increase in the provision for credit losses of $0.3 million, and an increase in noninterest expense of $1.1 million, or 5%. Included in the above $0.9 million increase in noninterest income and $1.1 million increase in noninterest expense was an $0.8 million increase in bank-owned life insurance (BOLI) designed to offset changes to deferred compensation expense. Deferred compensation expense increased $0.7 million in the second quarter of 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024 primarily due to increases in the value of participants accounts as a result of market conditions. Linked Quarter Income Changes (comparisons to the three months ended March 31, 2025) Net income improved by $1.5 million, or 17%, driven mostly by a $0.5 million increase in net interest income, a $0.9 million decrease in the provision for credit losses, and a $1.9 million, or 29%, increase in noninterest income. These three favorable changes were partially offset by a $1.4 million, or 6%, increase in noninterest expense. Included in the above $1.9 million increase in noninterest income and $1.4 million increase in noninterest expense was an $1.5 million increase in bank-owned life insurance (BOLI) designed to offset changes to deferred compensation expense. Deferred compensation expense increased $1.5 million in the second quarter of 2025 as compared to the prior linked quarter primarily due to increases in the value of participants accounts as a result of market conditions. Net interest income increased by $0.5 million, due to an $80.9 million, or 2%, increase in average interest earnings assets. Other changes to noninterest income outside of the abovementioned change in BOLI associated with deferred compensation include a $0.3 million increase in service charge income, due partially to an increase in analysis fees, as well as a $0.2 million increase in death benefits from life insurance. Year-to-Date Income Changes (comparisons to the first six months of 2024) There was a $1.9 million increase in net interest income due mostly to a five basis point increase in net interest margin, as well as a favorable decrease in the tax rate which decreased tax expense by $0.5 million. These favorable increases were mostly offset by higher provision for credit losses. There were offsetting differences to noninterest income and noninterest expense of $1.0 million. Noninterest income decreased $1.0 million, or 6%. There was an $0.8 million net favorable impact from the sale/leaseback and strategic balance sheet restructuring in the first half of 2024 with no like transaction in the first half of 2025. This was fully offset by a $0.8 million increase in death benefits from life insurance. The remaining variance in both noninterest income and noninterest expense is primarily due to offsetting changes in BOLI related to deferred compensation expense, and the related deferred compensation expense itself. Balance Sheet Changes (comparisons to December 31, 2024) Total assets increased 4%, or $156.0 million, to $3.8 billion during the first six months of 2025. Gross loans increased $103.3 million, or 4%, due to a $75.5 million increase in mortgage warehouse loans, a $34.1 million increase in commercial real estate loans, a $6.3 million increase in construction loans and an $8.4 million increase in other commercial loans, partially offset by declines in other categories. Specifically, there was a $11.1 million decrease in residential real estate loans, a $9.6 million decrease in farmland loans, and a $0.4 million reduction in consumer loans. In addition to strong favorable growth in mortgage warehouse, new credit extended, including new fundings on non-mortgage warehouse lines of credit, was $114.5 million year-to-date in 2025 versus $75.3 million year-to-date in 2024. Deposits increased by $82.8 million, or 3%. The growth in deposits came primarily from noninterest bearing demand deposits. There was also a $15.0 million increase in brokered deposits. Overall customer deposits increased $67.8 million. Other interest-bearing liabilities increased $92.0 million; $74.4 million from an increase in overnight borrowings, and $17.6 million from increased customer repurchase balances. Overnight borrowings are used to fund mortgage warehouse line advances. Other financial highlights are reflected in the following table.

(2) See reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the corresponding GAAP measurement in "Non-GAAP Financial Measures". Expand INCOME STATEMENT HIGHLIGHTS Net Interest Income Net interest income was $30.7 million for the second quarter of 2025, a $0.5 million increase, or 2%, over the second quarter of 2024. This increase in net interest income for the quarterly comparison was due primarily to a 23 basis point decrease in interest expense on interest bearing liabilities. For the second quarter of 2025, although the balance of average interest-earning assets was $58.5 million higher, the yield was 20 basis points lower as compared to the same period in 2024. The primary reason for the decrease in yield came from the variable rate investments, in the form of collateralized loan obligations ('CLO'), that had rate resets due to the 100 basis decline in the prime rate in late 2024, and CLO prepayments where the funds could not be reinvested at the original spread or a similar rate. There was a 23 basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the same period, which had a greater impact than the lower yields on the interest-earning asset side of the balance sheet. Net interest income for the comparative year-to-date periods increased $1.9 million. As with the quarterly comparison, the decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities was greater than the decrease in yield on interest-bearing assets. There was a $61.7 million, or 2%, increase in average interest-earning asset balances yielding 10 basis points lower for the same period, while average interest-bearing liability balances increased $1.7 million, yielding 20 basis points lower for the same period. The favorable net impact of the mix and rate change was a five basis point increase in our net interest margin for the six months ending June 30, 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024. At June 30, 2025, approximately 31% of the Bank's loan portfolio is scheduled to mature or reprice within twelve months and an additional 10% could reprice within three years. In addition, approximately $359.7 million, or 37%, of the securities portfolio consists of floating rate bonds that reprice quarterly. Interest expense was $12.1 million for the second quarter of 2025, a decrease of $1.3 million, relative to the second quarter of 2024. For the first six months of 2025, compared to the first six months of 2024, interest expense decreased $2.2 million to $23.4 million. The decrease in interest expense for the quarterly comparison is primarily attributable to a $49.8 million average volume decrease in interest-bearing deposit balances and a 31 basis point decrease in interest rates paid on those balances. This positive variance was partially offset by $45.6 million in higher average balances of borrowed funds, combined with an 11 basis point increase in cost. There was a favorable shift in the deposit mix in the second quarter of 2025 as compared to the same period in 2024 with transaction accounts increasing $112.6 million while higher cost time and brokered deposits decreased. Higher cost customer time deposits decreased by $46.6 million, and wholesale brokered deposits decreased by $63.6 million. There was also a $10.5 million decrease in the average balance of savings and money market accounts. For the first half of 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024, customer time deposits and wholesale brokered deposits decreased $38.6 million, and $12.1 million respectively, while borrowed funds increased $5.5 million. Other deposits increased $74.2 million for the year-to-date comparison. Our net interest margin was 3.68% for the second quarter of 2025, as compared to 3.74% for the linked quarter and 3.69% for the second quarter of 2024. The yield of interest-earning assets decreased three basis points for the second quarter of 2025 as compared to the linked quarter, while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased three basis points for the same period of comparison. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased $80.9 million for the linked quarter, while the increase in interest-bearing liabilities was $82.0 million for the same period. Although the basis point change in interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities was the same, the decrease had a larger impact on interest-earning assets since those balances are $1.2 billion higher, thus causing a six basis point negative variance on the net interest margin for the linked quarter comparison. Provision for Credit Losses The provision for credit losses on loans was $1.2 million for the second quarter of 2025, as compared to a $0.9 million provision for credit losses related to loans in the second quarter of 2024. There was a year-to-date provision for credit losses on loans of $3.2 million in 2025, as compared to $1.0 million for the same period in 2024. The Company's $0.3 million increase in the provision for credit losses on loans in the second quarter of 2025, as compared to the second quarter of 2024, and the $2.2 million year-to-date increase in the provision for credit losses on loans, compared to the same period in 2024, was primarily due to the impact of $6.3 million in net charge-offs in the first six months of 2025, with $2.9 million in net charge-offs for the first six months of 2024. The increase in net charge-offs in the second quarter of 2025 was primarily related to the $5.3 million prior allowance on an individually evaluated agricultural production loan. There was a benefit for credit losses on unfunded commitments for $0.01 million in the second quarter of 2025, and a $0.1 million provision for the first six months of 2025, as compared to a $0.02 million benefit for credit losses in the second quarter of 2024 and a $0.01 million provision for credit losses in the first six months of 2024. The Company did not record a provision for credit losses on available-for-sale debt securities. Although there were debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the declines in market values were primarily attributable to changes in interest rates and volatility in the financial markets and not a result of an expected credit loss. Noninterest Income Total noninterest income increased by $0.9 million, or 12%, for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the same quarter in 2024 and decreased $1.0 million, or 6%, for the comparable year-to-date periods. The quarterly comparison increase primarily resulted from a $0.7 million positive variance in the value of separate account corporate-owned life insurance assets tied to non-qualified deferred compensation plans, and a $0.2 million increase in death benefit on life insurance proceeds, partially offset by lower service charges on deposit accounts. The year-to-date decrease reflects the net impact of the loss on the sale of investment securities in 2024, offset by the gain on the sale/leaseback of bank owned branch locations, with no like transactions in 2025. There was also an unfavorable variance of $0.8 million associated with the decrease in value of separate account corporate-owned life insurance assets tied to non-qualified deferred compensation plans, and a decrease of $0.5 million in service charges on deposits. These unfavorable variances to the year-to-date comparisons were partially offset by a $0.8 million in additional life insurance death benefits. Noninterest Expense Total noninterest expense increased by $1.1 million, or 5%, in the second quarter of 2025, relative to the second quarter of 2024, but favorably declined by $1.0 million, or 2%, in the first six months of 2025, as compared to the first six months of 2024. Salaries and Benefits were $0.5 million, or 4%, higher in the second quarter of 2025, as compared to the second quarter of 2024, and were $0.3 million, or 1%, higher for the first six months of 2025, compared to the same period in 2024. The reason for the increase in the quarterly comparison is due to increased officer bonus costs and group health insurance costs. The increase in the year-over-year comparison is primarily due to the same reasons as with the quarterly comparison but also included an overall increase in officer salary costs and 401(K) company contributions, partially offset by an increase in deferred salary loan costs, due to the hiring of lending and lending support officers. Overall full-time equivalent employees were 494 at June 30, 2025, as compared to 485 at December 31, 2024, and 501 at June 30, 2024. Included in full-time equivalent employees, at June 30, 2025, were 10 summer interns and temporary employees. Occupancy expenses were mostly unchanged for the second quarter, and the first half of 2025 as compared to the same periods in 2024. Other noninterest expense increased $0.6 million, or 8%, for the second quarter 2025, as compared to the second quarter in 2024, and decreased $1.3 million, or 8%, for the first half of 2025, as compared to the same period in 2024. Deferred compensation expense for directors increased $0.7 million for the quarterly comparison but decreased $0.7 million for the year-to-date comparison, which is linked to the changes in life insurance income. For the year-to-date comparison there were also decreases in marketing expenses. The Company's effective tax rate was 25.3% of pre-tax income in the second quarter of 2025, relative to 27.8% in the second quarter of 2024, and 25.5% of pre-tax income for the first half of 2025 relative to 27.1% for the same period in 2024. The decrease in effective tax rate for both the quarterly and year-to-date comparisons is due to the tax credits and tax-exempt income representing a larger percentage of total taxable income. Balance Sheet Summary The $156.0 million, or 4%, increase in total assets during the first half of 2025, is primarily a result of a $103.3 million increase in gross loan balances, a $5.8 million increase in investment securities, and a $29.3 million increase in cash on hand. The increase in gross loan balances as compared to December 31, 2024, was primarily a result of a favorable change of $75.5 million in mortgage warehouse balances, organic increases of $34.1 million in commercial real estate loans, $6.3 million in construction loan balances, and $8.4 million in other commercial loans. Counterbalancing these positive variances were loan paydowns and maturities resulting in net declines in certain categories even with higher loan production. In particular, there was an $11.1 million net decrease in residential real estate loans, and a $9.6 million decrease in farmland loans. As indicated in the loan rollforward table below, new credit extended for the second quarter of 2025 decreased $18.2 million over the linked quarter to $48.1 million and increased $7.8 million over the same period in 2024. We also had $77.2 million in loan paydowns and maturities, a $9.5 million decline in line of credit utilization, offset by an increase of $75.5 million in mortgage warehouse line utilization for the first half of 2025.

Expand Unused commitments, excluding mortgage warehouse and overdraft lines, were $266.0 million at June 30, 2025, compared to $256.9 million at December 31, 2024. Total line utilization, excluding mortgage warehouse and overdraft lines, was 57% at both June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024. Mortgage warehouse utilization increased to 55% at June 30, 2025, as compared to 51% at December 31, 2024. Total mortgage warehouse commitments increased by $38.5 million and $98.5 million for the three-and-six-month periods ending June 30, 2025, respectively. Deposit balances reflect growth of $82.8 million, or 3%, during the first six months of 2025. Core non-maturity deposits increased by $86.8 million, or 4%, while customer time deposits decreased by $19.0 million, or 4%. Wholesale brokered deposits increased by $15.0 million primarily to fund the growth in mortgage warehouse loans. Overall noninterest-bearing deposits as a percentage of total deposits at June 30, 2025, increased to 35.8%, as compared to 34.8% at December 31, 2024, and 33.5% at June 30, 2024. Other interest-bearing liabilities of $280.9 million on June 30, 2025, consisted of $80.0 million in term FHLB advances, $126.5 million in customer repurchase agreements, and $74.4 million in overnight borrowings. Overall uninsured deposits are estimated to be approximately $751.1 million, or 26% of total deposit balances, excluding public agency deposits that are subject to collateralization through a letter of credit issued by the FHLB. In addition, uninsured deposits of the Bank's customers are eligible for FDIC pass-through insurance if the customer opens an IntraFi Insured Cash Sweep (ICS) account or a reciprocal time deposit through the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry System (CDARS). IntraFi allows for up to $285 million per customer of pass-through FDIC insurance, which would more than cover each of the Bank's deposit customers if such a customer desired to have such pass-through insurance. The Bank maintains a diversified deposit base with no significant customer concentrations and does not bank any cryptocurrency companies. At June 30, 2025, the Company had approximately 118,000 accounts and the 25 largest deposit balance customers had balances of approximately 11% of overall deposits, a 10% increase over the linked quarter. During the second quarter of 2025, there were seasonality fluctuations in the normal course of business, and one new customer addition to the composition of our 25 largest deposit balance customers. Deposit balances for the 25 largest deposit customers increased $41.7 million, or 15%, at June 30, 2025, as compared to the linked quarter. The Company continues to have substantial liquidity which is managed daily. At June 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company had the following sources of primary and secondary liquidity (Dollars in Thousands): Primary and secondary liquidity sources June 30, 2025 December 31, 2024 Cash and cash equivalents $ 130,012 $ 100,664 Unpledged investment securities 529,292 552,098 Excess pledged securities 253,365 242,519 FHLB borrowing availability 605,571 629,134 Unsecured lines of credit 445,785 479,785 Secured lines of credit 25,000 25,000 Funds available through fed discount window 321,368 298,296 Totals $ 2,310,393 $ 2,327,496 Expand Total capital of $355.7 million at June 30, 2025, reflects a decrease of $1.6 million, relative to year-end 2024. The decrease in equity during the first half of 2025 was due to the addition of $19.7 million in net income, a $2.6 million favorable swing in accumulated other comprehensive income/loss due principally to changes in investment securities' fair value, $18.0 million in share repurchases and $7.0 million in dividends paid. The remaining difference is related to stock options exercised and restricted stock compensation recognized during the first half of 2025. Asset Quality Total nonperforming assets, comprised of nonaccrual loans and foreclosed assets, decreased by $4.7 million to $15.0 million for the first half of 2025. The Company's ratio of nonperforming loans to gross loans decreased to 0.62% at June 30, 2025, from 0.84% at December 31, 2024. The decrease resulted from a decrease in non-accrual loan balances, due to the partial charge-off of one agricultural production loan. All the Company's nonperforming assets are individually evaluated for credit loss quarterly and Management believes the established allowance for credit loss on such loans is appropriate. The allowance for credit losses on loans decreased $5.4 million to $21.7 million as of June 30, 2025, as compared to March 31, 2025, and decreased $3.2 million as compared to December 31, 2024. The decline in the allowance for credit losses on loans for the first six months of 2025 was primarily due to the $5.3 million partial charge-off of one agricultural production loan (reflected in the other commercial category in the table below) which had a $5.3 million allowance for this loan specifically evaluated at the end of the prior quarter. Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans by Category (Dollars in Thousands, Unaudited) As of June 30, 2025 Balance Total Allowance Percent of Portfolio Coverage Ratio (1) Real estate: Residential real estate $ 371,415 $ 1,694 15.26% 0.46% Commercial real estate 1,392,075 17,083 57.17% 1.23% Other construction/land 11,662 252 0.48% 2.16% Farmland 67,967 185 2.79% 0.27% Total real estate 1,843,119 19,214 75.70% 1.04% Other Commercial 186,620 1,907 7.67% 1.02% Mortgage warehouse lines 401,896 451 16.51% 0.11% Consumer loans 2,974 108 0.12% 3.63% Total Loans $ 2,434,609 $ 21,680 100.00% 0.89% Expand As of March 31, 2025 Balance Total Allowance Percent of Portfolio Coverage Ratio (1) Real estate: Residential real estate $ 377,592 $ 1,746 16.37% 0.46% Commercial real estate 1,380,402 17,143 59.85% 1.24% Other construction/land 7,633 145 0.33% 1.90% Farmland 73,206 282 3.17% 0.39% Total real estate 1,838,833 19,316 79.72% 1.05% Other Commercial 181,631 7,255 7.87% 3.99% Mortgage warehouse lines 283,231 339 12.28% 0.12% Consumer loans 2,968 140 0.13% 4.72% Total Loans $ 2,306,663 $ 27,050 100.00% 1.17% Expand As of December 31, 2024 Balance Total Allowance Percent of Portfolio Coverage Ratio (1) Real estate: Residential real estate $ 382,507 $ 1,808 16.41% 0.47% Commercial real estate 1,357,833 17,051 58.24% 1.26% Other construction/land 5,472 92 0.23% 1.68% Farmland 77,547 280 3.33% 0.36% Total real estate 1,823,359 19,231 78.21% 1.05% Other Commercial 178,331 4,829 7.65% 2.71% Mortgage warehouse lines 326,400 398 14.00% 0.12% Consumer loans 3,344 372 0.14% 11.12% Total Loans $ 2,331,434 $ 24,830 100.00% 1.07% Expand (1) Coverage ratio equals allowance for credit losses on loans divided by amortized cost. Expand The allowance as a percentage of gross loans was 0.89%, 1.17%, and 1.07%, at June 30, 2025, March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, respectively. Mortgage warehouse lines historically have incurred nominal losses and therefore have a significantly lower reserve than the other categories of loans. The largest increase in loan balances was from mortgage warehouse lines which has the lowest allowance for credit losses on loans at 0.11%. Therefore, at June 30, 2025, approximately $0.5 million of the allowance for credit losses for loans is attributable to mortgage warehouse lines. The allowance as a percentage of gross loans exclusive of mortgage warehouse lines was 1.04% at June 30, 2025, as compared to 1.32% at March 31, 2025, and 1.22% at December 31, 2024. The largest loan segment of commercial real estate continues to maintain a coverage ratio at or above 1.23%. As described above, the significant decline in the coverage ratio for other commercial loans was due to a charge-off of a $5.3 million allowance on a loan individually evaluated for loss. Management's detailed analysis indicates that the Company's allowance for credit losses on loans should be sufficient to cover credit losses for the life of the loans outstanding as of June 30, 2025, but no assurance can be given that the Company will not experience substantial future losses relative to the size of the loan and lease loss allowance. The Company calculates the allowance for credit losses using a combination of quantitative and qualitative factors by call report category.
