The following table sets forth accruing past due loans and non-accrual loans held for investment on the dates indicated, as well as delinquency statistics and certain asset quality ratios.   September 30, 2025 June 30, 2025 December 31, 2024  NumberofLoans PrincipalBalanceof Loans NumberofLoans PrincipalBalanceof Loans NumberofLoans PrincipalBalanceof Loans  (Dollars in thousands)Accruing past due loans:               30 to 59 days past due:               Commercial mortgage loans 3  $956  1  $129  7  $8,538 Multi-family mortgage loans —   —  —   —  —   — Construction loans —   —  —   —  —   — Residential mortgage loans 32   8,085  20   5,541  22   6,388 Total mortgage loans 35   9,041  21   5,670  29   14,926 Commercial loans 8   729  4   997  9   3,026 Consumer loans 40   2,739  30   1,592  47   3,152 Total 30 to 59 days past due 83  $12,509  55  $8,259  85  $21,104                 60 to 89 days past due:               Commercial mortgage loans 4  $4,314  1  $347  4  $3,954 Multi-family mortgage loans 1   879  1   431  —   — Construction loans —   —  —   —  —   — Residential mortgage loans 22   6,180  16   3,816  17   5,049 Total mortgage loans 27   11,373  18   4,594  21   9,003 Commercial loans 4   1,390  13   4,389  3   1,117 Consumer loans 11   299  9   699  15   856 Total 60 to 89 days past due 42   13,062  40   9,682  39   10,976 Total accruing past due loans 125  $25,571  95  $17,941  124  $32,080                 Non-accrual:               Commercial mortgage loans 13  $39,036  15  $42,828  17  $20,883 Multi-family mortgage loans 1   424  3   6,143  6   7,498 Construction loans 2   19,220  3   18,901  2   13,246 Residential mortgage loans 29   7,858  25   7,209  23   4,535 Total mortgage loans 45   66,538  46   75,081  48   46,162 Commercial loans 42   32,483  34   30,531  32   24,243 Consumer loans 19   1,388  21   1,547  23   1,656 Total non-accrual loans 106  $100,409  101  $107,159  103  $72,061                 Non-performing loans to total loans held for investment     0.52%     0.56%     0.39%Allowance for loan losses to total non-performing loans     186.21%     175.32%     268.43%Allowance for loan losses to total loans held for investment     0.97%     0.98%     1.04%                       At September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, there were no non-accrual or past due loans held for sale, respectively. At December 31, 2024, total non-accrual loans held for sale, which are not in the table above, totaled $2.4 million. Additionally, at December 31, 2024, total past due loans held for sale, including non-accrual loans held for sale, totaled $4.8 million. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company held foreclosed assets of $2.0 million and $9.5 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, there was a write-down of one foreclosed commercial property of $2.7 million based on a contracted sales price. The sale of this property closed in the second quarter of 2025, which reduced foreclosed assets by an additional $5.8 million. There was one addition to foreclosed assets with an aggregate carrying value of $1.0 million. Foreclosed assets as of September 30, 2025 were comprised of two commercial properties. Total non-performing assets at September 30, 2025 increased $20.9 million to $102.4 million, or 0.41% of total assets, from $81.5 million, or 0.34% of total assets at December 31, 2024. Balance Sheet Summary Total assets as of September 30, 2025 were $24.83 billion, a $780.9 million increase from December 31, 2024. The increase in total assets was primarily due to a $626.7 million increase in loans held for investment and a $344.3 million increase in total investments, partially offset by a $148.1 million decrease in loans held for sale, and decreases in intangibles and other assets. The Company’s loans held for investment portfolio totaled $19.29 billion as of September 30, 2025 and $18.66 billion as of December 31, 2024. The loan portfolio consisted of the following:  September 30, 2025 June 30, 2025 December 31, 2024 (Dollars in thousands)Mortgage loans:     Commercial$7,318,725  $7,313,904  $7,228,078 Multi-family 3,534,751   3,517,509   3,382,933 Construction 719,961   751,914   823,503 Residential 1,977,483   1,985,355   2,010,637 Total mortgage loans 13,550,920   13,568,682   13,445,151 Commercial loans 4,837,934   4,688,888   4,447,672 Mortgage warehouse lines 292,133   240,134   160,928 Consumer loans 614,983   617,190   613,819 Total gross loans 19,295,970   19,114,894   18,667,570 Premiums on purchased loans 1,362   1,308   1,338 Net deferred fees and unearned discounts (11,265)  (11,372)  (9,538)Total loans$19,286,067  $19,104,830  $18,659,370              During the three months ended September 30, 2025, the loans held for investment portfolio had net increases of $149.0 million of commercial loans, $52.0 million of mortgage warehouse lines, $17.2 million of multi-family loans and $4.8 million of commercial mortgage loans, partially offset by net decreases of $32.0 million of construction loans, $7.9 million of residential mortgage loans and $2.2 million of consumer loans. Total commercial loans, including mortgage warehouse lines, commercial mortgage, multi-family and construction loans, represented 86.6% of the loan portfolio as of September 30, 2025, compared to 85.9% as of December 31, 2024. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, loan funding, including advances on lines of credit, totaled $7.00 billion, compared with $2.53 billion for the same period in 2024. As of September 30, 2025, the Company’s unfunded loan commitments totaled $3.82 billion, including commitments of $2.20 billion in commercial loans, $572.9 million in construction loans and $312.0 million in commercial mortgage loans. Unfunded loan commitments as of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024 were $2.73 billion and $2.97 billion, respectively. The loan pipeline, consisting of work-in-process and loans approved pending closing, totaled $2.89 billion as of September 30, 2025, compared to $1.79 billion and $1.98 billion as of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, respectively. Total investment securities were $3.57 billion as of September 30, 2025, a $344.3 million increase from December 31, 2024. This increase was primarily due to purchases of mortgage-backed securities and a decrease in unrealized losses on available for sale debt securities. Total deposits increased $472.4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, to $19.10 billion. Total savings and demand deposit accounts increased $276.2 million to $15.73 billion as of September 30, 2025, while total time deposits increased $196.2 million to $3.36 billion as of September 30, 2025. The increase in time deposits consisted of a $204.3 million increase in brokered time deposits, partially offset by an $8.1 million decrease in retail time deposits. The increase in savings and demand deposits was largely attributable to $270.6 million increase in interest bearing demand deposits and a $144.5 million increase in money market deposits, partially offset by a $101.7 million decrease in savings deposits and a $37.2 million decrease in non-interest bearing demand deposits. Borrowed funds increased $188.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, to $2.21 billion. Borrowed funds represented 8.9% of total assets as of September 30, 2025, an increase from 8.4% as of December 31, 2024. Stockholders’ equity increased $165.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, to $2.77 billion, primarily due to net income earned for the period and a decrease in unrealized losses on available for sale debt securities, partially offset by cash dividends paid to stockholders. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, common stock repurchases totaled 1,335 shares at an average cost of $18.15 per share and 157,905 shares at an average cost of $18.07 per share, respectively, all of which were made in connection with withholding to cover income taxes on the vesting of stock-based compensation. As of September 30, 2025, approximately 814,634 shares remained eligible for repurchase under the current stock repurchase authorization. Book value per share and tangible book value per share(1) as of September 30, 2025 were $21.18 and $15.13, respectively, compared with $19.93 and $13.66, respectively, as of December 31, 2024.

Presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is consistent with how the Company evaluates its performance internally and these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the Company’s industry. Investors should recognize that the Company’s presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures might not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures and the Company strongly encourages a review of its condensed consolidated financial statements in their entirety.            (1) Annualized Adjusted Return on Average Assets, Equity and Tangible Equity            Three Months Ended Nine Months Ended  September 30, June 30, September 30, September
