The above table provides an approximation of the projected re-pricing of assets and liabilities at June 30, 2024 on the basis of contractual maturities, adjusted for anticipated prepayments of principal and scheduled rate adjustments. The loan and securities prepayment rates reflected are based on historical experience.

Changes in interest rates can have a variety of effects on our business. In particular, changes in interest rates affect our net interest income, net interest margin, net income, the value of our securities portfolio, the volume of loans originated, and the amount of gain or loss on the sale of our loans.

If market rates rise by more than the interest rate cap, we will not be able to increase these loan rates above the interest rate cap. The principal objective of our asset/liability management is to manage the sensitivity of market value of equity (“MVE”) to changing interest rates.

A portion of the Bank’s deposits are based on administrative rates controlled by management and the remaining portion are directly tied to Fed Funds. Therefore, if liability-linked indices rise faster than asset-linked indices and there are no other changes in our asset/liability mix, our net interest income will likely decline due to basis risk. Prepayment Risk .

This feature prevents the loan from repricing to a level that exceeds the cap’s specified interest rate, thus adversely affecting net interest income in periods of relatively high interest rates. On a weighted-average basis, our adjustable rate loans at June 30, 2024 had lifetime rate caps that were 526 basis points greater than their current stated note rates.

On a weighted-average basis, our adjustable rate loans at June 30, 2025 had 51 lifetime rate caps that were 519 basis points greater than their current stated note rates.
If our interest-bearing liabilities lag in repricing is shorter, or reprices faster, than our interest-earning assets lag, then it would result in a reduction to our net interest income. Basis Risk . Basis risk occurs when assets and liabilities have similar repricing timing but repricing is based on different market interest rate indices.

Asset/liability management is governed by policies reviewed and approved annually by our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors has delegated the responsibility to oversee the administration of these policies to the Bank’s asset/liability committee (“ALCO”). The interest rate risk strategy currently deployed by ALCO is to primarily use “natural” balance sheet hedging.

At least once a quarter, ALCO members report to our Board of Directors the status of our interest rate risk profile. 54 We measure interest rate sensitivity as the difference between amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that mature within a given period of time.

We measure interest rate sensitivity as the difference between amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that mature or contractually re-price within a given period of time.
In a rising interest rate environment, an institution with a positive gap would generally be expected, absent the effects of other factors, to experience a greater increase in its yield on assets relative to its cost on liabilities, and thus an increase in its net interest income.
For example, in a falling interest rate environment, an institution with a positive gap would generally be expected, absent the effects of other factors, to experience a greater decrease in its yield on assets relative to its cost on liabilities, and thus a decrease in its net interest income.
A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities and negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive assets.
A gap is considered positive (or asset sensitive) when the amount of interest rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities and negative (or liability sensitive) when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive assets.
Our earning assets that reprice are directly tied to various indices, such as: U.S. Treasury, SOFR, Ameribor, Bloomberg Short Term Bank Yield Index (“BSBY”), Federal Funds (“Fed Funds”), Interest Rate on Excess Reserves (“IOER”) and Prime. Generally, our deposit rates are not directly tied to these same indices.

Our Securities Business Segment is exposed to interest rate risk as a result of maintaining inventories of interest rate sensitive financial instruments and other interest-earning assets including customer and correspondent margin loans and securities borrowing activities. Our exposure to interest rate risk is also from our funding sources including customer and correspondent cash balances, bank borrowings and securities lending activities.

For example, gap analysis is limited in its ability to predict trends in future earnings and makes no 55 assumptions about changes in prepayment tendencies, deposit or loan maturity preferences or repricing time lags that may occur in response to a change in the interest rate environment.

Similarly, absent any subsequent asset and liability actions by management, during a period of falling interest rates, however, an institution with a positive gap would tend to have its assets reprice at a faster rate than one with a negative gap, which would tend to reduce the growth in its net interest income.
