operations and
underlying performance
trends. Further,
management uses these

managing and
evaluating the Company’s
business and intends to refer to

in
accordance
with
GAAP,
and
are
not
necessarily
comparable
to
non-GAAP
measures
that
may
be
presented
by
other
companies.

of
these
non-GAAP
measures

directly
comparable

are key indicators of the ongoing earnings power of the
Company.
(2)
Excludes the dilutive effect, if any, of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of outstanding
stock options.
(3) Since the Company has no intangible assets, tangible
stockholders’ equity and tangible total assets are the
same amounts as stockholders’ equity and total assets,
respectively, as calculated under GAAP.
(4) The decrease in total stockholders’ equity was driven primarily
by the repurchase of 2.0 million shares of Class A
common stock conducted in September 2025.

Financial Measures This presentation includes financial information
determined by methods other than in accordance with generally

may provide useful supplemental information for evaluating the
Company’s expectations and underlying performance trends.
Further, management uses these measures in managing and evaluating
the Company’s business and intends to refer to them in discussions
about our operations and performance. Operating performance
measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative to or substitute
for, measures determined in accordance with GAAP, and
are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP measures
that may be presented by other companies. Reconciliations of these

transaction. The efficiency ratio for the first quarter of 2026 remained consistent
with prior quarters when excluding the securities loss trade

classified as AFS, while 35.1% is classified as HTM. The modified
duration is 5.2 and the average life is 6.1 years. Duration has increased
because we have purchased longer-duration bonds to protect the
balance sheet from expected lower interest rates. We expect
to receive $34.2 million from the securities portfolio for the remainder
of 2026, at current rates; these cashflows will support loan growth and/or
