**PART I**

**Item 1. Business.** 

**General** 

*SR Bancorp, Inc.* SR Bancorp, Inc. ("SR Bancorp" or the "Company") is a Maryland chartered company and the holding company for Somerset Regal Bank (the "Bank"). SR Bancorp's primary business activity is the ownership of the outstanding common stock of Somerset Regal Bank. SR Bancorp does not own or lease any property but instead uses the premises, equipment and other property of Somerset Regal Bank with the payment of appropriate rental fees, as required by applicable law and regulations, under the terms of an expense allocation agreement.

At June 30, 2025, SR Bancorp had total assets of $1.08 billion, deposits of $846.0 million and total stockholders' equity of $193.8 million.

The Company became the holding company for Somerset Regal Bank as part of the mutual-to-stock conversion of Somerset Savings Bank, SLA as described below.

In the future, SR Bancorp may acquire or organize other entities or operating subsidiaries; however, there are no current plans, arrangements, agreements or understandings, written or oral, to do so.

Our website address is www.somersetregalbank.com. We make available on our website, free of charge, our annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and amendments to these reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. Information on our website is not to be considered a part of this document.

*Somerset Regal Bank.* Somerset Regal Bank was formed through the combination on September 19, 2023 of Somerset Bank and Regal Bank, two New Jersey chartered institutions. The Bank operates from 14 branches in Essex, Hunterdon, Hudson, Livingston, Middlesex, Morris, Somerset and Union counties in the northern and central New Jersey. The Bank offers a variety of deposit and loan products to individuals and small businesses, most of which are located in our primary market.

**Completed Stock Offering**

On September 19, 2023, Somerset Savings Bank, SLA converted from the mutual to stock form of organization and SR Bancorp completed its stock offering. SR Bancorp sold 9,055,172 shares of its common stock at a price of $10.00 per share, which included 760,364 shares sold to Somerset Regal Bank's Employee Stock Ownership Plan. Additionally, the Company contributed 452,758 shares and $905,517 in cash to the Somerset Regal Charitable Foundation, Inc., a charitable foundation formed in connection with the conversion. Upon the completion of the conversion and offering, 9,507,930 shares of SR Bancorp common stock were outstanding.

**Merger with Regal Bancorp, Inc. and Regal Bank** 

On September 19, 2023, SR Bancorp acquired Regal Bancorp, Inc. Immediately following that acquisition, Regal Bank, the wholly-owned subsidiary of Regal Bancorp, was merged with and into Somerset Savings Bank, which was renamed Somerset Regal Bank (collectively, the "Merger"). In connection with the Merger, Regal Bancorp's shareholders received $23.00 in cash for each share of Regal Bancorp common stock they owned. The aggregate cost of the Merger was approximately $69.5 million. The acquisition of Regal Bancorp and Regal Bank expanded our market presence into Essex, Morris and Union Counties, New Jersey and enhanced our market presence in Somerset County, New Jersey.

The Merger increased the combined banks' deposit base and its loan portfolio, provided Somerset Savings Bank with greater commercial lending expertise and access to commercial loan customers and provided Regal Bank with greater residential lending expertise and access to residential loan customers.

------

**Market Area** 

The Bank, which was formed in 1887, serves Essex, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Morris, Somerset and Union counties in New Jersey through its 14 full-service branch locations.

The markets served by Somerset Regal Bank encompass a broad geographic area in central and northern New Jersey. The market areas served by Somerset Regal Bank have highly developed and diverse economies. Pharmaceutical, life sciences, financial services, technology and transportation and logistics companies are among the largest employment sectors in the counties served by Somerset Regal Bank.

Population and household data indicate that the market areas served by Somerset Regal Bank's branches are a mix of urban and suburban markets. Middlesex County is the most populous county with a total population of 890,000, while Hunterdon County is the least populous county with a total population of 132,000.

Income measures show that the counties of Hunterdon, Morris and Somerset are relatively affluent markets, with household and per capita income measures that are well above the comparable U.S. and New Jersey measures. Comparatively, household and per capita income measures for Essex County are the lowest among the primary area counties, which were also lower than the comparable New Jersey measures and similar to the comparable U.S. measures.

A comparison of household income distribution measures provides another indication of the relative affluence of Hunterdon, Morris and Somerset Counties, which maintained significantly higher percentages of households with incomes above $100,000 compared to the U.S and New Jersey. None of the primary market area counties maintained a lower percentage of households with incomes above $100,000 compared to the U.S, while Essex, Middlesex and Union Counties maintained a lower percentage of households with incomes above $100,000 compared to New Jersey.

At June 30, 2025, Somerset Regal Bank maintained its largest balance of deposits in Somerset County, where it maintains its headquarters and maintains its largest branch presence. Based on June 30, 2025 deposit data, Somerset Regal Bank's $364.6 million of deposits provided for a 2.1% market share of bank and thrift deposits in Somerset County, which was the nineth largest market share out of 20 financial institutions in the market.

**Competition** 

We face significant competition for deposits and loans. Our most direct competition for deposits has historically come from the many financial institutions operating in our market area, including commercial banks, savings banks, savings and loan associations and credit unions, and from other financial service companies such as brokerage firms and insurance companies. Several large holding companies operate banks in our market area, and these institutions are significantly larger than us and, therefore, have significantly greater resources. We also face competition for investors' funds from money market funds, mutual funds and other corporate and government securities.

Our competition for loans comes primarily from financial institutions in our market area and from other financial service providers, such as mortgage companies and mortgage brokers. Competition for loans also comes from non-depository financial service companies entering the mortgage market, such as insurance companies, securities companies, financial technology companies and specialty finance companies.

We expect competition to remain intense in the future as a result of legislative, regulatory and technological changes and the continuing trend toward consolidation of the financial services industry. Technological advances, for example, have lowered barriers to entry, allowed banks to expand their geographic reach by providing services over the internet and made it possible for non-depository institutions, including financial technology companies, to offer products and services that traditionally have been provided by banks. Competition for deposits and the origination of loans could limit our growth in the future.

------

**Lending Activities** 

We offer a variety of loans, including residential, commercial real estate, multi-family, commercial and industrial and consumer loans. Historically, we have had a significant portion of our loan portfolio concentrated in residential loans, including one- to four-family residential loans. Our merger with Regal Bank greatly expanded our commercial loan portfolio and commercial lending capabilities. At June 30, 2025, residential mortgage loans comprised 53.4% of our total loan portfolio and commercial loans comprised 45.0%, which largely consisted of multi-family loans.

In the future, we intend to continue to concentrate on ways to compete for a greater share of commercial loan originations in our primary market area.

***One- to Four Family-Residential Mortgage Loans*.** We offer fixed- and adjustable-rate residential mortgage loans with terms of up to 30 years. We offer adjustable-rate mortgage loans with interest rates and payments that adjust annually after an initial fixed period of three, five or six years. Interest rates and payments on our adjustable-rate loans generally are adjusted to a rate equal to a percentage above the U.S. Treasury Security Index. The maximum amount by which the interest rate may be increased or decreased is generally 2.0% per adjustment period and the lifetime interest rate cap is generally 6.0% over the initial interest rate of the loan.

Borrower demand for adjustable-rate loans compared to fixed-rate loans is a function of the level of interest rates, the expectations of changes in the level of interest rates, and the difference between the interest rates and loan fees offered for fixed-rate mortgage loans as compared to the interest rates and loan fees for adjustable-rate loans. The relative amount of fixed-rate and adjustable-rate mortgage loans that can be originated at any time is largely determined by the demand for each in a competitive environment. The loan fees, interest rates and other provisions of mortgage loans are determined based on our own pricing criteria and competitive market conditions.

While one- to four-family residential real estate loans are normally originated with up to 30-year terms, such loans typically remain outstanding for substantially shorter periods because borrowers often prepay their loans in full either upon sale of the property pledged as security or upon refinancing the original loan. Therefore, average loan maturity is a function of, among other factors, the level of purchase and sale activity in the real estate market, prevailing interest rates and the interest rates payable on outstanding loans.

It is our general policy not to make high loan-to-value loans (defined as loans with a loan-to-value ratio of 80% or more) without private mortgage insurance. We require all properties securing mortgage loans to be appraised by a board-approved independent appraiser. We require title insurance on all first mortgage loans, and borrowers must obtain hazard insurance. Additionally, we require flood insurance for loans on properties located in a flood zone and may require such insurance on properties not located in a flood zone.

Generally, adjustable-rate loans will better insulate banks from interest rate risk as compared to fixed-rate mortgages. An increased monthly mortgage payment required of adjustable-rate loan borrowers in a rising interest rate environment, however, could cause an increase in delinquencies and defaults. To mitigate this risk, we adhere to strict underwriting guidelines by initially qualifying a borrower at a higher interest rate. The marketability of the underlying property also may be adversely affected in a high interest rate environment. In addition, although adjustable-rate mortgage loans make our asset base more responsive to changes in interest rates, the extent of this interest sensitivity is limited by the annual and lifetime interest rate adjustment limits.

***Multi-Family and Commercial Real Estate Loans*.** At June 30, 2025, multi-family real estate loans totaled $219.9 million, which represented 27.5% of our total loan portfolio. Our multi-family real estate loans are generally secured by properties consisting of five or more rental units within our market area. We originate multi-family real estate loans with adjustable interest rates with maturities and amortization periods generally of up to 30 years. Interest rates on our multi-family real estate loans are generally indexed to the five-year United States Treasury Note rate, plus a margin, subject to an interest rate floor. Adjustment periods are generally every five years. At June 30,

------

2025, our largest multi-family real estate loan totaled $7.9 million and was secured by a non-owner-occupied multi-family apartment building located in our primary market area. At June 30, 2025, this loan was performing in accordance with its original terms.

At June 30, 2025, we had $127.7 million in commercial real estate loans, representing 16.0% of our total loan portfolio. Our commercial real estate loans are secured primarily by office buildings, industrial facilities, retail facilities and other commercial properties, substantially all of which are located in our primary market area. At June 30, 2025, $55.1 million of our commercial real estate loans was secured by owner occupied real estate and $72.5 million was secured by other commercial real estate.

We generally originate commercial real estate loans with maximum maturities and amortizations of up to 30 years and loan-to-value ratios of up to 75% of the appraised value of the collateral property on purchases and up to 70% of the appraised value of the collateral property on refinances. Our commercial real estate loans are offered with adjustable interest rates, which generally adjusts every five years with the interest rate indexed to the five-year United States Treasury Note rate, plus a margin, subject to an interest rate floor. All of our commercial real estate loans are subject to our underwriting procedures and guidelines, including requiring borrowers to generally establish a deposit relationship with us typically in the form of an operating account and/or tenant security accounts. At June 30, 2025, our largest commercial real estate loan totaled had an outstanding balance of $4.7 million and was secured by a non-owner-occupied commercial building located in our primary market area. At June 30, 2025, this loan was performing according to its original terms.

We consider a number of factors in originating commercial real estate loans. We evaluate the qualifications, experience and financial condition of the borrower (including credit history), the value and condition of the property securing the loan, the borrower's experience in owning or managing similar property and the borrower's payment history with us and other financial institutions. In evaluating the property securing the loan, among other factors, we consider the net operating income of the property before debt service and depreciation, the debt service coverage ratio (the ratio of net operating income to debt service) to ensure that it is at least 1.25x of the monthly debt service, and the ratio of the loan amount to the appraised value of the property. Our commercial real estate loans are generally appraised by outside independent appraisers approved by the board of directors. Personal guarantees are often obtained from commercial real estate borrowers. Each borrower's financial information on such loans is monitored on an ongoing basis by requiring periodic financial statement updates.

In underwriting multi-family real estate loans, we require a debt service coverage ratio of at least 1.25x and consider several factors, including the age and condition of the collateral, the financial resources and income level of the borrower and the borrower's experience in owning or managing similar properties. Multi-family real estate loans have loan-to-value ratios of up to 75% of the appraised value of the property securing the loans and up to 70% of the appraised value of the collateral property on refinances. All of our multi-family real estate loans are subject to our underwriting procedures and guidelines, including requiring borrowers to generally establish a deposit relationship with us typically in the form of an operating account and/or tenant security accounts. The borrower's financial information on such loans is monitored on an ongoing basis by requiring periodic financial statement updates.

***Commercial and Industrial Loans.*** At June 30, 2025, we had $12.3 million of commercial and industrial ("C&I") loans outstanding, representing 1.5% of the total loan portfolio. Typically, we originate C&I loans and lines of credit to small- and medium-sized companies in our market area under the Small Business Administration ("SBA") program. Our C&I loans, specifically SBA loans, are generally used for working capital purposes or for acquiring real estate, equipment, inventory or furniture. Our C&I loan portfolio consists of a mix of secured and unsecured loans. Generally, secured loans underwritten through the SBA program can have a loan-to-value ratio of up to 90% of the real estate collateral securing the loan. When making SBA C&I loans, we require a debt service coverage ratio of at least 1.25x and we review and consider the financial statements of the borrower, our lending history with the borrower, the borrower's debt service capabilities, the projected cash flows of the business, and the value of collateral, accounts receivable, inventory, and equipment. Personal guarantees are obtained from all SBA C&I borrowers. We generally seek to establish the primary deposit account relationship of our C&I business borrowers to maintain their principal deposit accounts with us, which improves our overall interest rate spread and profitability. We may increase this type of lending in the future.

------

The commercial loans that we offer are variable- and fixed-rate loans, generally for a one- to ten-year term. Variable interest rates are indexed to the prime rate as published in *The Wall Street Journal*, plus a margin. Commercial loans typically have shorter terms to maturity and higher interest rates than commercial real estate loans.

When making C&I loans outside of the SBA program, we require a debt service coverage ratio of at least 1.25x and, for C&I loans secured by real estate, a loan-to-value ratio of up to 75% of the real estate securing the loan. We review and consider the financial statements of the borrower, our lending history with the borrower, the borrower's debt service capabilities, and the value of the collateral. We generally do not make unsecured C&I loans and, if unsecured, personal guarantees are typically obtained from C&I borrowers.

At June 30, 2025, our largest C&I loan totaled $1.5 million on a line of credit with a total available draw of $212,000, and was secured by an owner occupied commercial building. At June 30, 2025, this loan was performing in accordance with its contractual terms.

***Consumer loans.*** We generally offer home equity loans and lines of credit with a maximum combined loan-to-value ratio of 70% based on the appraised value for one- to four-family owner occupied loans. Home equity loans have fixed rates of interest and are originated with terms of up to 20 years. Home equity lines of credit have adjustable rates and are based upon the prime rate as published in *The Wall Street Journal*. We hold a first or second mortgage position on all of the properties that secure our home equity loans.

We offer unsecured personal loans up to $5,000 and rehabilitation loans up to $10,000. Borrowers seeking a personal loan must be a Bank customer for at least one year, among other requirements. Rehabilitation loans are subject to a 70% loan to value limit and must be for one- to two-family owner occupied properties located in the Bank's market area. We also offer loans secured by passbook and certificates of deposit accounts held at the Bank, up to 90% of the balance of the certificate of deposit or passbook. For more information on our loan commitments, see "*Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of SR Bancorp—Liquidity and Capital Resources*."

Unsecured loans generally entail greater risk than do residential mortgage loans. Such loan collections depend on the borrower's continuing financial stability, and therefore are likely to be adversely affected by various factors, including job loss, divorce, illness or personal bankruptcy. Furthermore, the application of various federal and state laws, including federal and state bankruptcy and insolvency laws, may limit the amount that can be recovered on such loans.

The procedures for underwriting consumer loans include an assessment of the applicant's payment history on other debts and ability to meet existing obligations and payments on the proposed loan. Although the applicant's creditworthiness is a primary consideration, the underwriting process also includes a comparison of the value of the collateral, if any, to the proposed loan amount.

***Loan Originations, Sales, Purchases and Participations***. Loan originations come from a number of sources. The primary source of loan originations are existing customers, broker referrals, walk-in traffic, purchases from correspondent banks, advertising and referrals from customers. At June 30, 2025, we had loan participations of $3.9 million. As a supplement to our in-house loan originations of one- to four-family residential real estate loans, Somerset Regal Bank enters into agreements with unaffiliated mortgage brokers as a source for additional residential real estate loans. We currently work with eight different mortgage brokers in our market area, none of which we have an ownership interest in or share any common employees or directors. These mortgage brokers fund the one- to four-family residential real estate loans and then sell them on a loan-by-loan basis to the Bank following a re-underwriting of the loan in accordance with our own underwriting criteria. We use the same parameters in evaluating these loans as we do for our in-house loan originations of one- to four-family residential real estate loans. For each purchased loan, we generally pay a fixed fee based on the loan balance. For the years ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, we purchased $41.2 million and $41.5 million, respectively, of loans from these mortgage brokers for our portfolio. As part of purchasing the loans, we acquire the servicing rights to the loans. The purchased loans are acquired from these mortgage brokers without recourse or any right to require the mortgage broker to repurchase the loans. The fixed aggregate fee we pay to acquire the loan and servicing rights are amortized over the contractual life of the loan.

------

***Loan Approval Procedures and Authority.*** Our lending activities follow written, non-discriminatory, underwriting standards and loan origination procedures established by our Board of Directors and management. The Board of Directors has granted loan approval authority to certain officers or groups of officers up to prescribed limits, based on the officer's position and experience. The Management Loan Committee, comprised of SR Bancorp Inc.'s Chairman, Somerset Regal Bank's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Operating Officer, Chief Credit Officer, Senior Mortgage Lending Officer and Senior Commercial Lending Officer, approves residential and commercial loans up to $1.0 million and builder tract loans up to $1.5 million. Loans in excess of such amounts must be approved by the Board of Directors. The Management Loan Committee approves commercial loans up to $3.0 million. Loans in excess of such amounts must be approved by the Board of Directors.

***Loans to One Borrower.*** The maximum amount that we may lend to one borrower and the borrower's related entities is limited, by regulation, to generally 15% of our stated capital and reserves. At June 30, 2025, our regulatory limit on loans to one borrower was $28.9 million. Our loan policy has a $15.0 million loan to one borrower limit and $20.0 million loan to related borrowers limit. At June 30, 2025, our largest lending relationship was comprised of five loans with an aggregate total of $12.5 million to related borrowers. The loans consisted of one non-owner occupied commercial building, one commercial and industrial term loan, and three multi-family buildings. These loans were performing in accordance with their terms at June 30, 2025.

***Loan Commitments.*** We issue commitments for fixed- and adjustable-rate mortgage loans conditioned upon the occurrence of certain events. Commitments to originate mortgage loans are legally binding agreements to lend to our customers. Generally, our loan commitments expire after 60 days.

**Non-Performing and Problem Assets** 

When a loan is 15 days past due, we send the borrower a late charge notice. If the loan delinquency is not corrected, other forms of collections are implemented, including telephone calls and collection letters. We attempt personal, direct contact with the borrower to determine the reason for the delinquency, to ensure that the borrower understands the terms of the loan and to emphasize the importance of making timely payments. If necessary, subsequent late charges and delinquency notices are issued and the account will be monitored on a regular basis thereafter. By the 90<sup>th</sup> day of delinquency, we will send the borrower a final demand for payment, after which we may refer the loan to legal counsel to commence foreclosure proceedings. Any of our loan officers can shorten these time frames in consultation with the senior lending officer.

Generally, loans are placed on non-accrual status when payment of principal or interest is 90 days or more delinquent unless the loan is considered well-secured and in the process of collection. Loans are also placed on non-accrual status if collection of principal or interest in full is in doubt. When loans are placed on a non-accrual status, unpaid accrued interest is fully reversed, and further income is recognized only to the extent received. The loan may be returned to accrual status if both principal and interest payments are brought current and factors indicating doubtful collection no longer exist, including performance by the borrower under the loan terms for a six-month period. Our Senior Mortgage Lending Officer reports monitored loans, including all loans rated special mention, substandard, doubtful or loss, to the Board of Directors on a quarterly basis. In addition, management presents a quarterly credit loss allowance analysis to our Board of Directors.

***Real Estate Owned***. Real estate acquired by us as a result of foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is classified as real estate owned. When property is acquired, it is recorded at the lower of cost or estimated fair market value at the date of foreclosure, establishing a new cost basis. Estimated fair value generally represents the sale price a buyer would be willing to pay on the basis of current market conditions, including normal terms from other financial institutions, less the estimated costs to sell the property. Holding costs and declines in estimated fair market value result in charges to expense after acquisition. At June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, we had no real estate owned.

***Classification of Assets.*** Our policies, consistent with regulatory guidelines, provide for the classification of loans and other assets that are considered to be of lesser quality as substandard, doubtful, or loss assets. An asset is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard assets include those assets characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Assets (or portions of assets) classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and are charged to the ACL as their continuance as assets is not warranted. Assets that do not expose us to risk sufficient to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories, but which possess potential weaknesses that deserve our close attention, are required to be designated as special mention. As of June 30, 2025, we had no assets designated as special mention.

The allowance for credit losses is the amount estimated by management as necessary to absorb credit losses in the loan portfolio that are both probable and reasonably estimable at the balance sheet date. Our determination as to the classification of our assets and the amount of our loss allowances are subject to review by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance, which can require that we establish additional loss allowances. We regularly review our asset portfolio to determine whether any assets require classification in accordance with applicable regulations. On the basis of our review of our assets at June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, we had $0 and $50,000, respectively, of loans classified as substandard, and no assets classified as doubtful or loss.

------

**Allowance for Credit Losses** 

Our allowance for credit losses ("ACL") is maintained at a level necessary to absorb current expected credit losses. Management, in determining the allowance for credit losses, considers the losses in our loan portfolio and changes in the nature and volume of loan activities, along with the general economic and real estate market conditions. A description of our methodology in establishing our allowance for credit losses is set forth in the section "*Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations of SR Bancorp—Critical Accounting Policies-Allowance for Credit Losses*." The allowance for credit losses as of June 30, 2025 was maintained at a level that represents management's best estimate of current expected losses in the loan portfolio. However, this analysis process is subjective, as it requires us to make estimates that are susceptible to revisions as more information becomes available. Although we believe that we have established the allowance at levels to absorb current expected losses, future additions may be necessary if economic or other conditions in the future differ from the current environment.

In addition, as an integral part of their examination process, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the New Jersey Department of Banking and Insurance have authority to periodically review our allowance for credit losses. Such agencies may require that we recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgments of information available to them at the time of their examination.

The following table sets forth activity in our allowance for credit losses for the years indicated.

**Investment Activities** 

***General*.** The goals of our investment policy are to maximize portfolio yield over the long term in a manner that is consistent with minimizing risk, and meeting liquidity needs, pledging requirements, and asset/liability management and interest rate risk strategies. Subject to loan demand and our interest rate risk analysis, we will increase the balance of our investment securities portfolio when we have excess liquidity.

We have authority to invest in various types of liquid assets, including United States Treasury obligations, securities of various U.S. government sponsored enterprises and federal agencies, mortgage-backed securities and

------

certificates of deposit of federally insured institutions. Within certain regulatory limits, we also may invest a portion of our assets in corporate securities (equity as well as debt) and mutual funds. As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York, we also are required to maintain an investment in Federal Home Loan Bank of New York stock.

Our investment objectives are to provide and maintain liquidity, to establish an acceptable level of interest rate and credit risk, to provide an alternate source of low-risk investments when demand for loans is weak and to achieve a yield consistent with credit and interest rate risk parameters included in Somerset Regal Bank's policies. Our Board of Directors has the overall responsibility for the investment portfolio, including approval of our investment policy, which is reviewed and approved at least annually. The Investment Committee, consisting of the Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Financial Officer, is responsible for implementation of the investment policy, and monitoring our investment performance. Our Board of Directors reviews the status of our investment portfolio on a quarterly basis.

At June 30, 2025, our investment portfolio consisted solely of securities held-to-maturity, primarily securities and obligations issued by U.S. government-sponsored enterprises totaling $131.9 million, subordinated debentures issued by financial institutions in the Mid-Atlantic region totaling $7.8 million and collateralized mortgage obligations totaling $2.0 million. At June 30, 2025, we also owned $2.6 million of restricted equity securities, of which $2.5 million consisted of Federal Home Loan Bank of New York stock. As a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York, we are required to purchase stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York, which is carried at cost.

We sold all available-for-sale securities during the year ended June 30, 2024, and held no balance as of June 30, 2025. The sales were part of a balance sheet restructuring in which the Company sold $35.4 million in book value of its lower-yielding investment securities for a pre-tax realized loss of approximately $4.4 million. The Company redeployed the $30.9 million of proceeds from the sale of these securities into approximately the same amount of residential and commercial real estate mortgages. The loans originated had a positive spread differential of approximately 472 basis points over the securities that were sold, which is expected to result in $1.4 million in additional pre-tax earnings, on an annualized basis.

The following table presents the maturity distribution and weighted average yields of our investment securities portfolio on a contractual maturity basis at June 30, 2025:

***United States Government and Federal Agency Obligations.*** While United States Government and federal agency securities generally provide lower yields than other investments in our securities investment portfolio, we

------

maintain these investments, to the extent appropriate, for liquidity purposes, as collateral for borrowings and as an interest rate risk hedge in the event of significant mortgage loan prepayments.

***Mortgage-Backed Securities.*** We invest in mortgage-backed securities insured or guaranteed by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or Ginnie Mae to achieve positive interest rate spreads with minimal administrative expense, and to lower our credit risk as a result of the guarantees provided by Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae or Ginnie Mae.

Mortgage-backed securities typically represent a participation interest in a pool of single-family or multi-family mortgages, although we invest primarily in mortgage-backed securities backed by one- to four-family mortgages. The issuers of such securities pool and resell the participation interests in the form of securities to investors. Some securities pools are guaranteed as to payment of principal and interest to investors. Mortgage-backed securities generally yield less than the loans that underlie such securities because of the cost of payment guarantees and credit enhancements. However, mortgage-backed securities are more liquid than individual mortgage loans since there is an active trading market for such securities. In addition, mortgage-backed securities may be used to collateralize our specific liabilities and obligations.

Investments in mortgage-backed securities involve a risk that actual payments will be greater or less than the prepayment rate estimated at the time of purchase, which may require adjustments to the amortization of any premium or acceleration of any discount relating to such interests, thereby affecting the net yield on our securities. We periodically review current prepayment speeds to determine whether prepayment estimates require modification that could cause amortization or accretion adjustments.

***Collateral Mortgage Obligations.*** CMOs are debt securities issued by a special-purpose entity that aggregates pools of mortgages and mortgage-backed securities and creates different classes of securities with varying maturities and amortization schedules, as well as a residual interest, with each class possessing different risk characteristics. The cash flows from the underlying collateral are generally divided into "tranches" or classes that have descending priorities with respect to the distribution of principal and interest cash flows, while cash flows on pass-through mortgage-backed securities are distributed pro rata to all security holders. All the CMOs in our investment portfolio are rated "AAA" by at least one of the major investment securities rating services.

**Deposit Activities and Other Sources of Funds** 

***General*.** Deposits and loan repayments are the major sources of our funds for lending and other investment purposes. Scheduled loan repayments are a relatively stable source of funds, while deposit inflows and outflows and loan prepayments are significantly influenced by general interest rates and money market conditions.

***Deposit Accounts*.** Deposits are primarily attracted from within our market area through the offering of a broad selection of deposit instruments, including noninterest-bearing demand deposits (such as checking accounts), interest-bearing demand accounts (such as NOW accounts), savings accounts, money market accounts and certificates of deposit. At June 30, 2025, we also held $31.8 million of accounts from a variety of local municipal relationships. We have no brokered deposits.

We also offer a variety of deposit accounts designed for the businesses operating in our market area. Our business banking deposit products include a business checking account designed for small businesses, savings and money market accounts. We offer bill payment services through our online banking system.

Deposit account terms vary according to the minimum balance required, the time period the funds must remain on deposit and the interest rate, among other factors. In determining the terms of our deposit accounts, we consider the rates offered by our competition, the rates on borrowings, our liquidity needs, profitability to us, and customer preferences and concerns. We generally review our deposit mix and pricing weekly. Our deposit pricing strategy has generally been to offer competitive rates on all types of deposit products, and to periodically offer special rates to attract deposits of a specific type or term.

As of June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, the aggregate amount of uninsured deposits (deposits in amounts greater than $250,000, which is the maximum amount for federal deposit insurance), was $145.3 million and $109.7 million, respectively. In addition, as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, the aggregate amount of all our uninsured certificates of deposit was $24.9 million and $21.9 million, respectively. We have no deposits that are uninsured for any reason other than being in excess of the maximum amount for federal deposit insurance. The following table sets forth the maturity of the uninsured certificates of deposit as of June 30, 2025.

***Borrowings*.** We have the ability to utilize advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York to supplement our investable funds. The Federal Home Loan Bank functions as a central reserve bank providing credit for member financial institutions. As a member, we are required to own capital stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank and are authorized to apply for advances on the security of such stock and certain of our mortgage loans and other assets (principally securities that are obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States), provided certain standards related to creditworthiness have been met. Advances are made under several different programs, each having its own interest rate and range of maturities. Depending on the program, limitations on the amount of advances are based either on a fixed percentage of an institution's net worth or on the Federal Home Loan Bank's assessment of the institution's creditworthiness.

At June 30, 2025, the Company had a $30.0 million advance with the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York at a fixed rate of 4.42%, which matured on July 7, 2025. At June 30, 2024, the Company had no outstanding borrowings. At June 30, 2025, we had access to Federal Home Loan Bank advances of up to $100.0 million based on our unused qualifying collateral available to support such advances.

We also have the ability to borrow from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York to supplement our investable funds. All borrowings are secured by pledges of qualifying loans and investment securities and are generally on overnight terms with interest rates quoted at the time of the borrowing. At June 30, 2025 and 2024, we had a no outstanding borrowings with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

**Human Capital Resources**

***Employees***

As of June 30, 2025, we had 119 full-time employees and two part-time employees. None of our employees are represented by a labor union or covered by collective bargaining agreements, and we believe our relationship with our employees is good.

***Anti-Discrimination and Code of Conduct***

We are committed to creating and maintaining a workplace free from discrimination or harassment on the basis of color, race, sex, national origin, ethnicity, religion, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identification or expression or any other status protected by applicable law. Our management team and employees are expected to exhibit and promote honest, ethical and respectful conduct in the workplace. All our employees must adhere to a code of conduct that sets standards for appropriate behavior and are required to attend annual training to help prevent, identify, report and stop any type of discrimination and harassment. Recruitment, hiring, development, training, compensation and advancement at our company are based on qualifications, performance, skills and experience without regard to gender, race and ethnicity.

***Competitive Pay and Benefits***

We strive to provide pay, comprehensive benefits and services that help meet the varying needs of our employees. Our total rewards package includes competitive pay and comprehensive healthcare benefits for employees. We sponsor a 401(k) plan and we match employee contributions up to a certain limit. In addition, nearly all our employees are stockholders of SR Bancorp through participation in our Employee Stock Ownership Plan, which aligns stockholder interests by providing stock ownership on a tax-deferred basis at no cost to the employee.

***Employee Development and Training***

We focus on attracting, retaining, and cultivating talented individuals. We emphasize employee development and training by providing access to a wide range of online and instructor-led development and continual learning programs. Employees have access to broad resources they need to be successful and are encouraged to attend meetings and conferences.

**Subsidiaries** 

Somerset Regal Bank is SR Bancorp's only subsidiary.

Somerset Regal Bank maintains three subsidiaries: (1) RB Properties, LLC, a New Jersey limited liability corporation established to hold and manage foreclosed real estate properties; (2) Somerset Investment Company, a New Jersey corporation established to hold certain investment securities; and (3) Somerset Consumer Service Corporation, a New Jersey corporation that is currently inactive.

**Regulation and Supervision**

Upon consummation of the mutual-to-stock conversion, stock offering, charter conversion, Merger and bank merger (collectively, the "transactions"), Somerset Regal Bank became a New Jersey chartered commercial bank which is not a member of the Federal Reserve System (referred to as a "state nonmember bank"), subject to regulation, supervision and examination by the NJDBI and the FDIC. In turn, SR Bancorp became a bank holding company registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended, and subject to regulation, supervision and examination by the Federal Reserve. As a public holding company, SR Bancorp is also subject to the rules and regulations of the SEC under the federal securities laws. This description is not intended to be a complete list or description of such statutes and regulations and their effects on Somerset Regal Bank and SR Bancorp.

------

**Bank Regulation**

As a New Jersey chartered commercial bank with federally insured deposits, Somerset Regal Bank will be subject to comprehensive regulation by the NJDBI, as its chartering authority, and by the FDIC, as its primary federal regulator and deposit insurer. New Jersey chartered commercial banks are required to file reports with, and are periodically examined by, the FDIC and the NJDBI concerning their activities and financial condition and must obtain regulatory approvals before entering into certain transactions, including, but not limited to, mergers with or acquisitions of other financial institutions.

This regulatory and supervisory structure is intended primarily for the protection of depositors and the Deposit Insurance Fund. The regulatory structure also gives the regulatory authorities extensive discretion in connection with their supervisory and enforcement activities and examination policies, including policies regarding classifying assets and establishing an adequate allowance for credit losses for regulatory purposes. The regulatory authorities have substantial discretion to take enforcement action with respect to an institution that fails to comply with applicable regulatory requirements or engages in violations of law or unsafe and unsound practices.

**New Jersey Banking Laws and Supervision**

As a New Jersey chartered commercial bank, Somerset Regal Bank will be subject to extensive regulation, examination and supervision by the NJDBI, as its chartering authority.

***Activity Powers***. New Jersey chartered banks derive their lending, investment and other activity powers primarily from the New Jersey Banking Act of 1948, as amended, and the regulations of the NJDBI. Under these laws and regulations, New Jersey chartered banks generally may invest in:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.real estate mortgages;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.consumer and commercial loans;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.specific types of debt securities, including certain corporate debt securities and obligations of federal, state and local governments and agencies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.certain types of corporate equity securities; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.certain other assets.

New Jersey-chartered banks may also make other investments pursuant to "leeway" authority that permits investments not otherwise permitted by the New Jersey Banking Act. Leeway investments must comply with a number of limitations on the individual and aggregate amounts of such investments. A bank may also exercise trust powers upon approval of the NJDBI. New Jersey-chartered banks also may exercise those powers, rights, benefits or privileges authorized for national banks or out-of-state banks or for federal or out-of-state savings banks or savings associations, provided that before exercising any such power, right, benefit or privilege, prior approval by the NJDBI by regulation or by specific authorization is required. The exercise of these lending, investment and activity powers is limited by federal law and regulations. See *"—Federal Bank Regulation—Activities and Investments"* below. Certain corporate transactions by a New Jersey-chartered bank, such as establishing branches and acquiring other banks, require the prior approval of the NJDBI.

***Loan-to-One-Borrower Limitations.*** With certain specified exceptions, a New Jersey chartered bank may not make loans or extend credit to a single borrower or to entities related to the borrower in an aggregate amount that would exceed 15% of the bank's capital funds. A bank may lend an additional 10% of the bank's capital funds if secured by collateral meeting the requirements of the New Jersey Banking Act.

The New Jersey Banking Act imposes conditions and limitations on the liabilities to a bank of its directors and executive officers and of corporations and partnerships controlled by such persons, that are comparable in many respects to the conditions and limitations imposed on the loans and extensions of credit to insiders and their related interests under federal law, as discussed below. The New Jersey Banking Act also provides that a bank that is in compliance with the Federal Reserve's Regulation O, as discussed below, is deemed to be in compliance with such provisions of the New Jersey Banking Act.

------

***Dividends.*** Under the New Jersey Banking Act, a stock bank may not pay a cash dividend unless, following the payment, the bank's capital stock will be unimpaired, and the bank will have a surplus of no less than 50% of its capital stock or, if not, the payment of the dividend will not reduce the surplus of the bank. Federal law may also limit the amount of dividends that may be paid by a New Jersey chartered nonmember bank. See *"—Federal Bank Regulation—Prompt Corrective Regulatory Action"* below.

***Minimum Capital Requirements.*** Regulations of the NJDBI impose on New Jersey chartered depository institutions minimum capital requirements generally similar to those imposed by the FDIC on insured state banks. See "—*Federal Bank Regulation—Capital Requirements*."

***Examination and Enforcement.*** The NJDBI examines all state chartered commercial banks. The NJDBI has authority to enforce applicable law and prevent practices that may cause harm to an institution, including the issuance of cease and desist orders and civil money penalties and removal of directors, officers and employees. The NJDBI also has authority to appoint a conservator or receiver for a bank under certain circumstances such as insolvency or unsafe or unsound condition to transact business.

**Federal Bank Regulation**

***Supervision and Enforcement Authority*.** Somerset Regal Bank is subject to extensive regulation, examination and supervision by the FDIC as its primary federal prudential regulator and the insurer of its deposits. State nonmember banks must file reports with the FDIC concerning their activities and financial condition. State nonmember banks must also obtain prior FDIC approval before entering into certain corporate transactions such as establishing new branches and mergers with, or acquisitions of, other financial institutions. There are periodic examinations by the FDIC to evaluate state nonmember banks' safety and soundness and compliance with various regulatory requirements.

The FDIC maintains substantial enforcement authority over regulated institutions. That includes, among other things, the ability to assess civil money penalties, issue cease and desist orders and remove directors and officers. In general, enforcement actions may be initiated in response to violations of laws and regulations, breaches of fiduciary duty and unsafe or unsound practices. The FDIC may also appoint itself as conservator or receiver for an insured bank under certain circumstances.

***Capital Requirements.*** FDIC regulations require FDIC-supervised institutions to meet several minimum capital standards: a common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-based assets ratio of 4.5%, a Tier 1 capital to risk-based assets ratio of 6.0%, a total capital to risk-based assets ratio of 8%, and a Tier 1 capital to average total assets leverage ratio of 4%.

Common equity Tier 1 capital is generally defined as common shareholders' equity and retained earnings. Tier 1 capital is generally defined as common equity Tier 1 and additional Tier 1 capital. Additional Tier 1 capital generally includes certain non cumulative perpetual preferred stock and related surplus and minority interests in equity accounts of consolidated subsidiaries. Total capital includes Tier 1 capital (common equity Tier 1 capital plus additional Tier 1 capital) and Tier 2 capital. Tier 2 capital is comprised of capital instruments and related surplus meeting specified requirements and may include cumulative preferred stock and long-term perpetual preferred stock, mandatory convertible securities, intermediate preferred stock and subordinated debt. Also included in Tier 2 capital is the allowance for loan and lease losses limited to a maximum of 1.25% of risk-weighted assets and, for institutions that have exercised an opt-out election regarding the treatment of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income ("AOCI"), up to 45% of net unrealized gains on available-for-sale equity securities with readily determinable fair market values. Institutions that have not exercised the AOCI opt-out have AOCI incorporated into common equity Tier 1 capital (including unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale-securities). Somerset Regal Bank exercised the AOCI opt-out-election. Calculation of all types of regulatory capital is subject to deductions and adjustments specified in the regulations.

In determining the amount of risk-weighted assets for purposes of calculating risk-based capital ratios, a bank's assets, including certain off-balance sheet assets (e.g., recourse obligations, direct credit substitutes, residual interests), are multiplied by a risk weight factor assigned by the regulations based on perceived risks inherent in the

------

type of asset. Higher levels of capital are required for asset categories believed to present greater risk. For example, a risk weight of 0% is assigned to cash and U.S. government securities, a risk weight of 50% is generally assigned to prudently underwritten first lien one-to-four family residential mortgages, a risk weight of 100% is assigned to commercial and consumer loans, a risk weight of 150% is assigned to certain past due loans, and a risk weight of between 0% to 600% is assigned to permissible equity interests, depending on certain specified factors.

In addition to establishing the minimum regulatory capital requirements, the regulations limit capital distributions and certain discretionary bonus payments to management if an institution does not hold a "capital conservation buffer" consisting of 2.5% of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets above the amount necessary to meet its minimum risk-based capital requirements, effectively resulting in the following minimum ratios: a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 7.0%, a Tier 1 capital ratio of 8.5%, and a total capital ratio of 10.5%.

Institutions that have less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets and meet other qualifying criteria may elect to use the optional community bank leverage ratio framework, which requires maintaining a leverage ratio of greater than 9%, to satisfy the regulatory capital requirements, including the risk-based requirements. A qualifying institution may opt in and out of the community bank leverage ratio framework on its quarterly call report. Somerset Regal Bank has opted into the community bank leverage ratio framework.

In assessing an institution's capital adequacy, the FDIC takes into consideration not only these numeric factors, but also qualitative factors. The FDIC has the authority to establish higher capital requirements for individual institutions where deemed necessary.

At June 30, 2025, Somerset Regal Bank exceeded each of its capital requirements.

***Standards for Safety and Soundness.*** As required by statute, the federal banking agencies have adopted final regulations and Interagency Guidelines Establishing Standards for Safety and Soundness. The guidelines set forth the safety and soundness standards the federal banking agencies use to identify and address problems at insured depository institutions before capital becomes impaired. The guidelines address internal controls and information systems, internal audit systems, credit underwriting, loan documentation, interest rate exposure, asset growth, asset quality, earnings and compensation, fees and benefits. The agencies have also established standards for safeguarding customer information. If the appropriate federal banking agency determines that an institution fails to meet any standard prescribed by the guidelines, the agency may require the institution to submit to the agency an acceptable plan to achieve compliance with the standard.

***Activities and Investments.*** Federal law provides that a state-chartered bank insured by the FDIC generally may not engage as a principal in any activity not permissible for a national bank to conduct or make any equity investment of a type or in an amount not authorized for a national bank, notwithstanding state law, subject to certain exceptions.

In addition, the FDIC is authorized to permit a state-chartered bank to engage in state-authorized activities or investments not permissible for national banks (other than non-subsidiary equity investments) if it meets all applicable capital requirements and it is determined that the activities or investments involved do not pose a significant risk to the Deposit Insurance Fund. The FDIC has adopted procedures for institutions seeking approval to engage in such activities or investments. In addition, a state nonmember bank may control a subsidiary that engages in activities as principal that would only be permitted for a national bank to conduct in a "financial subsidiary" if a bank meets specified conditions and deducts its investment in the subsidiary for regulatory capital purposes.

***Prompt Corrective Regulatory Action.*** Federal law requires, among other things, that federal bank regulatory authorities take "prompt corrective action" with respect to banks that do not meet minimum capital requirements. For these purposes, the law establishes five capital categories: well capitalized, adequately capitalized, undercapitalized, significantly undercapitalized and critically undercapitalized.

An institution is considered "well capitalized" if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of 10.0% or greater, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 8.0% or greater, a leverage ratio of 5.0% or greater, and a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 6.5% or greater. An institution is considered "adequately capitalized" if it has a total risk-based

------

capital ratio of 8.0% or greater, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 6.0% or greater, a leverage ratio of 4.0% or greater, and a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 4.5% or greater. An institution is considered "undercapitalized" if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 8.0%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of less than 6.0%, a leverage ratio of less than 4.0%, or a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of less than 4.5%. An institution is considered "significantly undercapitalized" if it has a total risk-based capital ratio of less than 6.0%, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of less than 4.0%, a leverage ratio of less than 3.0%, or a common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of less than 3.0%. An institution is considered "critically undercapitalized" if it has a ratio of tangible equity (as defined in the regulations) to total assets equal to or less than 2.0%. At June 30, 2025, Somerset Regal Bank was classified as a "well capitalized" institution.

"Undercapitalized" banks must adhere to growth, capital distribution (including dividend) and other limitations, and are required to submit a capital restoration plan to the appropriate federal banking agency. An undercapitalized bank's compliance with a capital restoration plan must be guaranteed by any company that controls the undercapitalized institution in an amount equal to the lesser of 5.0% of the institution's total assets when deemed undercapitalized or the amount necessary to achieve the status of adequately capitalized. If an "undercapitalized" bank fails to submit an acceptable capital restoration plan, it is treated as if it is "significantly undercapitalized." "Significantly undercapitalized" banks must comply with one or more of a number of possible additional measures, including an order by the FDIC to sell sufficient voting stock to become adequately capitalized, reduce total assets, cease receipt of deposits from correspondent banks, dismiss directors or officers, or to limit interest rates paid on deposits, compensation of executive officers or capital distributions by the parent holding company. "Critically undercapitalized" institutions are subject to additional measures including, subject to a narrow exception, the appointment of a receiver or conservator within 270 days after they are determined to be critically undercapitalized.

A bank that is classified as well capitalized, adequately capitalized or undercapitalized may be treated as though it were in the next lower capital category if the FDIC, after notice and opportunity for hearing, determines that an unsafe or unsound condition, or an unsafe or unsound practice, warrants such treatment.

Qualifying institutions that elect and comply with the community bank leverage ratio framework are considered well-capitalized under the prompt corrective action regulations if they have a community bank leverage ratio of 9% or greater. See "—*Capital Requirements*" above.

***Transactions with Affiliates and Loans to Insiders.*** Transactions between banks and their affiliates are governed by federal law and regulation. Generally, Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act and the Federal Reserve's Regulation W, made applicable to Somerset Regal Bank by Section 18(j) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and FDIC regulations, prohibit a bank and its subsidiaries from engaging in a "covered transaction" with an affiliate if the aggregate amount of covered transactions outstanding with that affiliate would exceed an amount equal to 10% of the bank's capital stock and surplus. The aggregate amount of covered transactions outstanding with all affiliates is limited to 20% of the bank's capital stock and surplus. The term "covered transaction" includes making loans to, purchasing assets from, and issuing guarantees to an affiliate, and other similar transactions. Loans or other extensions of credit by a bank to an affiliate are required to be collateralized according to the requirements set forth in Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act. Section 23B of the Federal Reserve Act and Regulation W apply to "covered transactions," as well as to certain other transactions with or involving affiliates, and requires that all such transactions be on terms and under circumstances that are substantially the same, or at least as favorable, to the bank or its subsidiary as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with or involving a non-affiliate. Transactions covered by Section 23B also include the provision of services and selling of assets by a bank to an affiliate.

Somerset Regal Bank's loans to its directors, executive officers and owners of 10% or more of its stock (each, an insider) and entities controlled by such persons (each, a related interest) are subject to the conditions and limitations imposed by Sections 22(g) and 22(h) of the Federal Reserve Act and the Federal Reserve's Regulation O, as made applicable to the Bank by Section 18(j) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and FDIC regulations. Among other things, these provisions generally require that extensions of credit to insiders be made on terms that are substantially the same as and follow credit underwriting procedures that are not less stringent than those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with unaffiliated persons and that such extensions of credit do not involve more than the normal risk of repayment or present other unfavorable features. In addition, extensions of credit to

------

insiders may not exceed certain limitations on the amount of credit extended to such persons, individually and in the aggregate, which limits are based on a bank's unimpaired capital and unimpaired surplus. Extensions of credit in excess of certain limits must be approved by a majority of the bank's entire Board of Directors. Extensions of credit to executive officers are subject to additional limits based on the type of extension involved.

***Federal Insurance of Deposit Accounts.*** Deposit accounts in Somerset Regal Bank are insured up to a maximum of $250,000 per depositor for each account ownership category. The FDIC assesses all insured depository institutions. An institution's assessment rate depends upon the perceived risk to the Deposit Insurance Fund of that institution, with less risky institutions paying lower rates. Currently, assessments for institutions of less than $10 billion of total assets are based on financial measures and supervisory ratings derived from statistical models estimating the probability of failure within three years. Assessment rates (inclusive of possible adjustments) for insured depository institutions with assets of less than $10 billion currently range from 2.5 to 32 basis points of each institution's total assets less tangible capital.

The FDIC may increase or decrease the range of assessments uniformly, except that no adjustment in the risk-based assessment system may be made without notice and comment rulemaking.

Insurance of deposits may be terminated by the FDIC upon a finding that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices, is in an unsafe or unsound condition to continue operations or has violated any applicable law, regulation, order or regulatory condition imposed in writing. We do not know of any practice, condition or violation that might lead to termination of our deposit insurance.

***Community Reinvestment Act.*** Under the Community Reinvestment Act, or "CRA," every insured depository institution has a continuing and affirmative obligation, consistent with its safe and sound operation, to help meet the credit needs of its entire community, including low- and moderate- income neighborhoods. The CRA does not establish specific lending requirements or programs for financial institutions, nor does it limit an institution's discretion to develop the types of products and services that it believes are best suited to its particular community, consistent with the CRA. The CRA requires the FDIC, in connection with its examination of each state non-member bank, to assess the institution's record of meeting the credit needs of its community and to take such record into account in its evaluation of certain applications by such institution, including applications to establish branches and acquire other financial institutions. The CRA and its current regulations require the FDIC to provide a written evaluation of an institution's CRA performance utilizing a four-tiered descriptive rating system. Somerset Regal Bank's most recent FDIC CRA rating, dated April 7, 2025, was "Satisfactory."

***Federal Home Loan Bank System.*** Somerset Regal Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank System, which consists of 11 regional Federal Home Loan Banks. The Federal Home Loan Banks provide a central credit facility primarily for member institutions. Somerset Regal Bank, as a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York, is required to acquire and hold shares of capital stock in the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York. Somerset Regal Bank was in compliance with this requirement at June 30, 2025.

**Holding Company Regulation**

***Federal Holding Company Regulation*.** SR Bancorp is a bank holding company registered with the Federal Reserve and subject to regulation, examination, supervision and reporting requirements applicable to bank holding companies. In addition, the Federal Reserve has enforcement authority over SR Bancorp and its non-bank subsidiaries. Among other things, this authority permits the Federal Reserve to restrict or prohibit activities that are determined to be a serious risk to the subsidiary bank.

A bank holding company is generally prohibited from engaging in non-banking activities, or acquiring direct or indirect control of more than 5% of the voting securities of any company engaged in non-banking activities. One of the principal exceptions to this prohibition is for activities the Federal Reserve has determined to be so closely related to banking or managing or controlling banks as to be a proper incident thereto. Some of the principal activities that the Federal Reserve has determined by regulation to be so closely related to banking are: (1) making or servicing loans; (2) performing certain data processing services; (3) providing discount brokerage services; (4)

------

acting as fiduciary, investment or financial advisor; (5) leasing personal or real property; (6) making investments in corporations or projects designed primarily to promote community welfare; and (7) acquiring a savings and loan association whose direct and indirect activities are limited to those permitted for bank holding companies.

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 authorizes a bank holding company that meets specified conditions, including that its depository institution subsidiaries are "well capitalized" and "well managed," to opt to become a "financial holding company." A "financial holding company" may engage in a broader range of financial activities than a bank holding company. Such activities may include insurance underwriting and investment banking. SR Bancorp has no plans to elect "financial holding company" status at this time.

***Capital.*** Bank holding companies with $3 billion or more in total consolidated assets are subject to consolidated regulatory capital requirements that are as stringent as those applicable to their insured depository subsidiaries. SR Bancorp has consolidated assets of less than $3 billion and, therefore, is not subject to the consolidated capital requirements, unless otherwise advised by the Federal Reserve.

***Source of Strength.*** Federal law provides that bank and savings and loan holding companies must act as a source of financial and managerial strength to their subsidiary depository institution. The expectation is that the holding company will provide capital, liquidity and other support for the institution in times of financial stress.

***Stock Repurchases and Dividends.*** A bank holding company is generally required to give the Federal Reserve prior written notice of any purchase or redemption of its outstanding equity securities if the gross consideration for the purchase or redemption, when combined with the net consideration paid for all such purchases or redemptions during the preceding 12 months, is equal to 10% or more of the company's consolidated net worth. The Federal Reserve may disapprove such a purchase or redemption if it determines that the proposal would constitute an unsafe and unsound practice, or would violate any law, regulation, Federal Reserve order or directive, or any condition imposed by, or written agreement with, the Federal Reserve. There is an exception to this approval requirement for well capitalized bank holding companies that meet certain other conditions. Federal Reserve guidance provides for regulatory consultation and non-objection under specified circumstances prior to a holding company redeeming or repurchasing regulatory capital instruments, including common stock, regardless of the previously referenced notification requirement.

The Federal Reserve has issued a policy statement regarding capital distributions, including dividends, by bank holding companies. In general, the Federal Reserve's policies provide that dividends should be paid only out of current earnings and only if the prospective rate of earnings retention by the bank holding company appears consistent with the organization's capital needs, asset quality and overall financial condition. Regulatory guidance provides for prior consultation with and non-objection of the Federal Reserve in certain cases, such as where a proposed dividend exceeds earnings for the period for which the dividend would be paid (*e.g.*, calendar quarter) or where the holding company's net income for the past four quarters, net of dividends previously paid over that period, is insufficient to fully fund a proposed dividend. The Federal Reserve guidance also provides for consultation and non-objection for material increases in the amount of a bank holding company's common stock dividend. Additionally, under the prompt corrective action laws, the ability of a bank holding company to pay dividends may be restricted if a subsidiary bank becomes undercapitalized.

These regulatory policies could affect the ability of SR Bancorp to pay dividends, engage in stock repurchases or otherwise engage in capital distributions.

***Acquisition of Holding Company.*** Under the Change in Bank Control Act and its implementing regulations, no person, or group of persons acting in concert, may acquire control of a bank holding company, such as SR Bancorp, unless the Federal Reserve has been given 60 days' prior written notice and not disapproved the proposed acquisition. Control, as defined under the Change in Bank Control Act and its regulations, means the power, directly or indirectly, to direct the management or policies of the company or to vote 25% or more of any class of voting securities of the company. Acquisition of more than 10% of any class of a bank holding company's voting securities constitutes a rebuttable presumption of control under certain circumstances, including where, as is the case with SR Bancorp, the issuer has registered securities under Section 12 of the Exchange Act.

------

In addition, federal regulations provide that no company may acquire control of a bank holding company without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve. Control, as defined under the Bank Holding Company Act and Federal Reserve regulations, means ownership, control or power to vote 25% or more of any class of voting stock, control in any manner over the election of a majority of the company's directors, or a determination by the regulator that the acquiror has the power to exercise, directly or indirectly, a controlling influence over the management or policies of the company. Any company that acquires such control becomes a "bank holding company" subject to registration, examination and regulation by the Federal Reserve. Effective September 30, 2020, the Federal Reserve amended its regulations concerning when a company exercises a controlling influence over a bank or bank holding company for purposes of the Bank Holding Company Act. Relevant factors include the company's voting and nonvoting equity investment in the bank or bank holding company, director, officer and employee overlap, and the scope of business relationships between the company and bank or bank holding company.

***New Jersey Holding Company Regulation.*** As a bank holding company, SR Bancorp is also subject to the provisions of the New Jersey Banking Act of 1948, as amended, and the regulations of the NJDBI. New Jersey law establishes similar filing and prior approval requirements by the NJDBI for acquisitions of New Jersey chartered institutions.

**Federal Securities Laws**

SR Bancorp's common stock is registered with the SEC. SR Bancorp, therefore, is subject to the information, proxy solicitation, insider trading restrictions and other requirements under the Exchange Act.

The registration under the Securities Act of shares of common stock issued in the stock offering does not cover the resale of those shares. Shares of common stock purchased by persons who are not affiliates of SR Bancorp may be resold without registration. Shares purchased by an affiliate of SR Bancorp will be subject to the resale restrictions of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. If SR Bancorp meets the current public information requirements of Rule 144, each affiliate that complies with the other conditions of Rule 144, including those that require the affiliate's sale to be aggregated with those of other persons, would be able to sell in the public market without registration, a number of shares not to exceed, in any three-month period, the greater of 1% of the outstanding shares of SR Bancorp, or the average weekly volume of trading in the shares during the preceding four calendar weeks.

***Emerging Growth Company Status.*** SR Bancorp qualifies as an "emerging growth company" under the JOBS Act. For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may choose to take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies but not to "emerging growth companies," including, but not limited to, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. As an emerging growth company, we also will not be subject to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which would require that our independent auditors review and attest as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. An emerging growth company may also elect to use an extended transition period to delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are made applicable to private companies. Such an election is irrevocable during the period a company is an emerging growth company.

**Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002**

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 is intended to improve corporate responsibility, provide for enhanced penalties for accounting and auditing improprieties at publicly traded companies and protect investors by improving the accuracy and reliability of corporate disclosures pursuant to the securities laws. SR Bancorp has in place policies, procedures and systems designed to comply with this Act and its implementing regulations.

**Federal Taxation**

------

***General.*** SR Bancorp and Somerset Regal Bank are subject to federal income taxation in the same general manner as other corporations, with some exceptions discussed below. The following discussion of federal taxation is intended only to summarize material federal income tax matters and is not a comprehensive description of the tax rules applicable to SR Bancorp and Somerset Regal Bank.

***Method of Accounting.*** For federal income tax purposes, Somerset Regal Bank currently reports its income and expenses on the accrual method of accounting and uses a tax year ending June 30 for filing its federal income tax returns.

***Net Operating Loss Carryovers.*** Effective with the passage of the Federal Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, net operating loss carrybacks are no longer permitted, and net operating losses are allowed to be carried forward indefinitely. Net operating loss carryforwards arising from tax years beginning after January 1, 2018 are limited to offset a maximum of 80% of a future year's taxable income. At June 30, 2025, Somerset Regal Bank had approximately $3.0 million in net operating loss carryovers at the federal level and approximately $7.5 million in net operating loss carryovers at the state level.

***Capital Loss Carryovers.*** Generally, corporations may carry back capital losses to the preceding three taxable years and forward to the succeeding five taxable years. Any capital loss carryback or carryover is treated as a short-term capital loss for the year to which it is carried. As such, it is grouped with any other capital losses for the year to which carried and is used to offset any capital gains. Any loss remaining after the five-year carryover period that has not been deducted is no longer deductible. At June 30, 2025, Somerset Regal Bank had approximately $2.5 million in capital loss carryovers.

***Corporate Dividends.*** We may generally exclude from our income 100% of dividends received from Somerset Regal Bank as a member of the same affiliated group of corporations.

***Audit of Tax Returns.*** SR Bancorp's federal income tax returns and New Jersey State income tax returns have not been audited in the last three years.

**State Taxation**

***New Jersey State Taxation.*** In 2014, tax legislation was enacted that changed the manner in which banks and their affiliates are taxed in New Jersey. Taxable income is apportioned to New Jersey based on the location of the taxpayer's customers, with special rules for income from certain financial transactions. The location of the taxpayer's offices and branches are not relevant to the determination of income apportioned to New Jersey. The Corporation Business Tax rate is 9% on adjusted entire net income or on the portion allocable to New Jersey; the rate is 7.5% for all corporations with entire net income of $100,000 or less; and the rate is 6.5% for all corporations with entire net income of $50,000 or less.

***Maryland State Taxation****.* As a Maryland business corporation, SR Bancorp is required to file an annual report with and pay franchise taxes to the State of Maryland.

**Item 1A. Risk Factors.** 

You should consider carefully the following risk factors in evaluating an investment in the shares of common stock.

**<u>Risks Related to Economic Conditions</u>** 

**A worsening of economic conditions in our market area could reduce demand for our products and services and/or result in increases in our level of non-performing loans, which could adversely affect our operations, financial condition and earnings.** 

Local economic conditions have a significant impact on the ability of our borrowers to repay loans and the value of the collateral securing loans. A deterioration in economic conditions, especially local conditions, could

------

have the following consequences, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations, and could more negatively affect us compared to a financial institution that operates with more geographic diversity:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•demand for our products and services may decline;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•loan delinquencies, problem assets and foreclosures may increase;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•collateral for loans, especially real estate, may decline in value, thereby reducing customers' future borrowing power, and reducing the value of assets and collateral associated with existing loans; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•the net worth and liquidity of loan guarantors may decline, impairing their ability to honor commitments to us.

Moreover, a significant decline in general economic conditions caused by inflation, tariffs, recession, acts of terrorism, civil unrest, an outbreak of hostilities or other international or domestic calamities, an epidemic or pandemic, unemployment or other factors beyond our control could further impact these local economic conditions and could further negatively affect the financial results of our banking operations. In addition, deflationary pressures, while possibly lowering our operating costs, could have a significant negative effect on our borrowers, especially our business borrowers, and the values of underlying collateral securing loans, which could negatively affect our financial performance.

**Inflation can have an adverse impact on our business and on our customers.** 

Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be worth less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money. As discussed below under *"—Risks Related to Interest Rates – Changes in interest rates or the shape of the yield curve may adversely affect our profitability and financial condition,"* as inflation increases and market interest rates rise the value of our investment securities, particularly those with longer maturities, decrease, although this effect can be less pronounced for floating rate instruments. In addition, inflation generally increases the cost of goods and services we use in our business operations, such as electricity and other utilities, which increases our noninterest expenses. Furthermore, our customers are also affected by inflation and the rising costs of goods and services used in their households and businesses, which could have a negative impact on their ability to repay their loans with us. Sustained higher interest rates by the FRB to tame persistent inflationary pressures could decrease asset prices and weaken economic activity.

**Changes to trade policies and tariffs can have an adverse impact on our business and our customers.**

Changes in trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs or the escalation of a trade war, could negatively impact the economic conditions in the markets we serve. Our customers—particularly local businesses engaged in manufacturing and retail—may face higher costs for imported goods and materials, reduced export demand and supply chain disruptions due to increased tariffs. These challenges could lead to lower revenues, reduced profitability and potential layoffs, all of which may impair our customers' ability to meet their financial obligations. Furthermore, prolonged trade tensions and economic uncertainty could lead to market volatility, declining asset values and weakened consumer confidence. If our customers experience financial stress, we could see loan delinquencies and credit losses, negatively affecting our asset quality and overall financial performance. Additionally, any decline in local economic activity could reduce loan demand and deposit growth, which are critical to our long-term success. While we actively monitor economic and policy developments, we cannot predict the outcome of trade negotiations or the full impact of tariffs and trade restrictions on our business, customers, and the broader economy. Any adverse effects from tariffs or a trade war could materially and negatively impact our financial condition, results of operations, and future growth prospects.

**A recession could result in increases in our level of non-performing loans and/or reduce demand for our products and services, which would lead to lower revenue, higher credit losses and lower earnings.** 

Our business activities and earnings are affected by general business conditions in the United States and in our local market area. These conditions include short-term and long-term interest rates, inflation, unemployment levels, real estate values, monetary supply, consumer confidence and spending, fluctuations in both debt and equity capital

------

markets, and the strength of the economy in the United States generally and in our market area in particular. If the national economy experiences a recession, which might include rising unemployment levels, declines in real estate values and/or an erosion in consumer confidence, the ability of our borrowers to repay their loans in accordance with their terms could be impaired. Nearly all our loans are secured by real estate or made to businesses in the counties in which we have offices in New Jersey. As a result of this concentration, a prolonged or more severe downturn in the local economy could result in significant increases in non-performing loans, negatively impacting our interest income and resulting in higher provisions for credit losses. An economic downturn could also result in reduced demand for credit, which would lessen our revenues.

**<u>Risks Related to Interest Rates</u>** 

**Changes in interest rates or the shape of the yield curve may adversely affect our profitability and financial condition.** 

We derive our income mainly from the difference or spread between the interest earned on loans, securities and other interest-earning assets and the interest paid on deposits, borrowings and other interest-bearing liabilities. In general, the larger the spread, the more we earn. When market interest rates change, the interest we receive on our assets and the interest we pay on our liabilities will fluctuate. This can cause decreases in our spread and can adversely affect our income.

Like many financial institutions, our liabilities generally have shorter contractual maturities than our assets. This imbalance can create significant earnings volatility because market interest rates change over time. Furthermore, increases in interest rates may adversely affect our ability to originate loans and/or the ability of our borrowers to make loan repayments on adjustable-rate loans, as the interest owed on such loans would increase as interest rates increase. In a period of declining interest rates, the interest income we earn on our assets may decrease more rapidly than the interest we pay on our liabilities, as borrowers prepay mortgage loans, and mortgage-backed securities and callable securities are called, requiring us to reinvest those cash flows at lower interest rates.

In addition, changes in interest rates can affect the average life of loans and mortgage-backed and related securities. A decline in interest rates generally results in increased prepayments of loans and mortgage-backed and related securities as borrowers refinance their debt to reduce their borrowing costs. This creates reinvestment risk, which is the risk that we may not be able to reinvest prepayments at rates that are comparable to the rates we earned on the prepaid loans or securities. Furthermore, an inverted interest rate yield curve, where short-term interest rates (which are usually the rates at which financial institutions borrow funds) are higher than long-term interest rates (which are usually the rates at which financial institutions lend funds for fixed-rate loans) can reduce a financial institution's net interest margin and create financial risk for financial institutions that originate longer-term, fixed-rate mortgage loans.

**<u>Risks Related to Strategy and Growth</u>** 

**Our business strategy includes moderate growth, and our financial condition and results of operations could be negatively affected if we fail to grow or fail to manage our growth effectively.** 

Our business strategy includes moderate growth in assets, deposits and the scale of our operations. Achieving our growth targets will require us to attract customers that currently bank at other financial institutions in our market, thereby increasing our share of the market, and to expand the size of our market area. Our ability to successfully grow will depend on a variety of factors, including our ability to attract and retain experienced bankers, the continued availability of desirable business opportunities, the competitive responses from other financial institutions in our market area and our ability to manage our growth. Growth opportunities may not be available or we may not be able to manage our growth successfully. If we do not manage our growth effectively, our financial condition and operating results could be negatively affected. Furthermore, there can be considerable costs involved in expanding lending capacity, and generally a period of time is required to generate the necessary revenues to offset these costs, especially in areas in which we do not have an established presence. Accordingly, any such business expansion can be expected to negatively impact our earnings until certain economies of scale are reached.

------

**New lines of business or new products and services may subject us to additional risks.** 

From time to time, we may implement new lines of business or offer new products and services within existing lines of business. In addition, we will continue to invest in research, development, and marketing for new products and services. There are substantial risks and uncertainties associated with these efforts, particularly in instances where the markets are not fully developed. In developing and marketing new lines of business and/or new products and services, we may invest significant time and resources. Initial timetables for the development and introduction of new lines of business and/or new products or services may not be achieved and price and profitability targets may not prove feasible. Furthermore, if customers do not perceive our new offerings as providing significant value, they may fail to accept our new products and services. External factors, such as compliance with regulations, competitive alternatives, and shifting market preferences, may also impact the successful implementation of a new line of business or a new product or service. Furthermore, the burden on management and our information technology in introducing any new line of business and/or new product or service could have a significant impact on the effectiveness of our system of internal controls. Failure to successfully manage these risks in the development and implementation of new lines of business or new products or services could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

**A significant portion of our loans are secured by real estate, which could negatively impact our profitability upon a downturn in the local real estate market.** 

At June 30, 2025, approximately $787.9 million or 98.5% of our loan portfolio was secured by real estate, most of which is located in our primary lending market area of Essex, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Morris, Somerset and Union Counties, New Jersey and surrounding areas. Future declines in real estate values in our primary lending markets and surrounding markets because of an economic downturn could significantly impair the value of the collateral securing our loans and our ability to sell the collateral upon foreclosure for an amount necessary to satisfy the borrower's obligations to us. This could require us to increase our allowance for credit losses to address the decrease in the value of the real estate securing our loans, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and growth prospects.

Unlike larger financial institutions that are more geographically diversified, our profitability depends primarily on the general economic conditions in our primary market area. Local economic conditions have a significant impact on our residential real estate and other types of lending, including, the ability of borrowers to repay these loans and the value of the collateral securing these loans.

**Our reliance on third parties to originate certain loans may negatively impact our financial results if such relationships are discontinued.** 

We purchase residential mortgage loans from third-party brokers. Such purchases represented $41.2 million, or 42.2%, of our residential mortgage loan purchases and originations for the year ended June 30, 2025. Similarly, we relied on third-party brokers to refer to us multi-family real estate loans. Such referrals represented $50.5 million, or 100.0%, of the Bank's multi-family loan originations for the year ended June 30, 2025. These third parties are used to supplement the originations made by in-house staff. In each case, Somerset Regal Bank separately underwrite each loan before it is either purchased or closed. Should these broker relationships be discontinued or the Bank is otherwise unable to use these companies in the future, our ability to originate residential mortgage loans or multi-family real estate loans may be reduced unless and until we are able to find a suitable replacement or have the capability to originate such loans through our lending staff. If we have to add more staff, our compensation expense would increase. Our income may be negatively affected if our residential mortgage lending or multi-family residential lending operations are disrupted.

**Because we intend to increase our multi-family and commercial real estate and commercial loan originations, our lending risk will increase.** 

Multi-family and commercial real estate and commercial loans generally have more risk than residential mortgage loans. Because the repayment of multi-family and commercial real estate and commercial loans depends on the successful management and operation of the borrower's properties or related businesses, repayment of such loans can be affected by adverse conditions in the real estate market or the local economy. Multi-family and

------

commercial real estate and commercial loans may also involve relatively large loan balances to individual borrowers or groups of related borrowers. A downturn in the real estate market or the local economy could adversely impact the value of properties securing the loan or the revenues from the borrower's business thereby increasing the risk of non-performing loans. Also, many multi-family and commercial real estate and commercial business borrowers can have more than one loan outstanding with us. Consequently, an adverse development with respect to one loan or one credit relationship can expose us to a significantly greater risk of loss compared to an adverse development with respect to a residential mortgage loan. Further, unlike residential mortgages or multi-family and commercial real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans may be secured by collateral other than real estate, such as inventory and accounts receivable, the value of which may be more difficult to appraise, may be more susceptible to fluctuation in value at default, and may be more difficult to realize upon enforcement of our remedies. As our multi-family and commercial real estate and commercial loan portfolios increase, the corresponding risks and potential for losses from these loans may also increase.

**If our allowance for credit losses is not sufficient to cover actual credit losses, our earnings and capital could decrease.** 

We make various assumptions and judgments about the collectability of our loan portfolio, including the creditworthiness of our borrowers and the value of the real estate and other assets serving as collateral for our loans. In determining the amount of the allowance for credit losses, we review our loans and our loss and delinquency experience, and we evaluate other factors including, among other things, current and forecastable economic conditions. If our assumptions are incorrect, or if delinquencies or non-performing loans increase, our allowance for credit losses may not be sufficient to cover current expected losses in our loan portfolio, which would require additions to our allowance, that could materially decrease our net income. Our allowance for credit losses was 0.65% and 0.71% of total loans at June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively.

The implementation of the Current Expected Credit Losses accounting standard or "CECL" was effective for SR Bancorp on July 1, 2023. CECL requires financial institutions to determine periodic estimates of lifetime expected credit losses on loans and recognize the expected credit losses as allowances for credit losses. This changed the method of providing allowances for loan losses that are incurred or probable, which increased the types of data we need to collect and review to determine the appropriate level of the allowance for credit losses.

In addition, Somerset Regal Bank regulators periodically review our allowance for credit losses and, based on their judgments and information available to them at the time of their review, may require us to increase our allowance for credit losses or recognize further loan charge-offs. An increase in our allowance for credit losses or loan charge-offs as required by these regulatory authorities may reduce our net income and our capital, which may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

**<u>Risks Related to Our Funding</u>** 

**Our inability to generate core deposits may cause us to rely more heavily on wholesale funding strategies for funding and liquidity needs, which could have an adverse effect on our net interest margin and profitability.** 

We must maintain sufficient funds to respond to the needs of depositors and borrowers. Deposits have traditionally been our exclusive source of funds for use in lending and investment activities. We also receive funds from loan repayments, maturities of securities and income on other interest-earning assets. While we emphasize generating transaction accounts, we cannot guarantee if and when this will occur. Certificates of deposit comprised $268.2 million or 31.7% of our total deposits at June 30, 2025. Certificates of deposit due within one year of June 30, 2025 totaled $239.0 million, or 28.3% of total deposits. Further, the considerable competition for deposits in our market area also has made, and may continue to make, it difficult for us to obtain reasonably priced deposits. Moreover, deposit balances can decrease if customers perceive alternative investments as providing a better risk/return tradeoff. If we are not able to increase our lower-cost transactional deposits at a level necessary to fund our asset growth or deposit outflows, we may be forced seek other sources of funds, including other certificates of deposit, Federal Home Loan Bank advances, brokered deposits and lines of credit to meet the borrowing and deposit withdrawal requirements of our customers, which may be more expensive and have an adverse effect on our net interest margin and profitability.

------

**<u>Risks Related to Competition</u>** 

**Strong competition within our market area may limit our growth and profitability.** 

Competition in the banking and financial services industry is intense. In our market area, we compete with commercial banks, savings institutions, mortgage brokerage firms, credit unions, finance companies, mutual funds, insurance companies, and brokerage and investment banking firms. Many of our competitors have greater name recognition, market presence and substantially more resources that benefit them in attracting business and offer certain services that we do not or cannot provide. Our smaller asset size also makes it more difficult to compete, as many of our competitors are larger and can more easily afford to invest in the marketing and technologies needed to attract and retain customers. In addition, larger competitors may be able to price loans and deposits more aggressively than we do, which could affect our ability to grow and remain profitable on a long-term basis. Our profitability depends upon our continued ability to successfully compete in our market area. If we must raise interest rates paid on deposits or lower interest rates charged on our loans, our net interest margin and profitability could be adversely affected. Competition also makes it increasingly difficult and costly to attract and retain qualified employees. For additional information see "*Business of SR Bancorp and Somerset Regal Bank—Competition*."

The financial services industry could become even more competitive as a result of continuing legislative, regulatory and technological changes and continued industry consolidation. Banks, securities firms and insurance companies can merge under the umbrella of a financial holding company, which can offer virtually any type of financial service, including banking, securities underwriting, insurance (both agency and underwriting) and merchant banking. Also, technology has lowered barriers to entry and made it possible for non-banks to offer products and services traditionally provided by banks, such as automatic transfer and automatic payment systems. Many of our competitors have fewer regulatory constraints and may have lower cost structures. Additionally, due to their size, many competitors may be able to achieve economies of scale and, as a result, may offer a broader range of products and services than we can as well as better pricing for those products and services.

**<u>Risks Related to Operations and Security</u>** 

**We face significant operational risks because the nature of the financial services business involves a high volume of transactions.**

We operate in diverse markets and rely on the ability of our employees and systems to process a high number of transactions. Operational risk is the risk of loss resulting from our operations, including but not limited to, the risk of fraud by employees or persons outside our company, the execution of unauthorized transactions by employees, errors relating to transaction processing and technology, breaches of our internal control systems and compliance requirements. Insurance coverage may not be available for such losses, or where available, such losses may exceed insurance limits. This risk of loss also includes potential legal actions that could arise as a result of operational deficiencies or as a result of non-compliance with applicable regulatory standards, adverse business decisions or their implementation, or customer attrition due to potential negative publicity. In the event of a breakdown in our internal control systems, improper operation of systems or improper employee actions, we could suffer financial loss, face regulatory action, and/or suffer damage to our reputation.

**Cyber-attacks or other security breaches could adversely affect our operations, net income or reputation.** 

We regularly collect, process, transmit and store significant amounts of confidential information regarding our customers, employees and others and concerning our own business, operations, plans and strategies. In some cases, this confidential or proprietary information is collected, compiled, processed, transmitted or stored by third parties on our behalf.

Information security risks have generally increased in recent years because of the proliferation of new technologies, the use of the Internet and telecommunications technologies to conduct financial and other transactions, the increased sophistication and activities of perpetrators of cyber-attacks and mobile phishing and more employees working remotely. Mobile phishing, a means for identity thieves to obtain sensitive personal information through fraudulent e-mail, text or voice mail, is an emerging threat targeting the customers of financial entities. A failure in or breach of our operational or information security systems, or those of our third-party service providers, as a result of cyber-attacks or information security breaches or due to employee error, malfeasance or

------

other disruptions could adversely affect our business, result in the disclosure or misuse of confidential or proprietary information, damage our reputation, increase our costs and/or cause losses.

Although we employ a variety of safeguards to protect confidential and proprietary information from mishandling, misuse or loss, these safeguards do not provide absolute assurance that mishandling, misuse or loss of the information will not occur, and that if mishandling, misuse or loss of information does occur, those events will be promptly detected and addressed. Similarly, when confidential or proprietary information is collected, compiled, processed, transmitted or stored by third parties on our behalf, our policies and procedures require that the third party agree to maintain the confidentiality of the information, establish and maintain policies and procedures designed to preserve the confidentiality of the information, and permit us to confirm the third party's compliance with the terms of the agreement. As information security risks and cyber threats continue to evolve, we may be required to expend additional resources to continue to enhance our information security measures and/or to investigate and remediate any information security vulnerabilities.

If our confidential or proprietary information were to be mishandled, misused or lost, we could be exposed to significant regulatory consequences, reputational damage, civil litigation and/or financial loss.

**Risks associated with system failures, interruptions, or breaches of security could negatively affect our earnings.** 

Information technology systems are critical to our business. We use various technology systems to manage our customer relationships, general ledger, securities, deposits, and loans. We have established policies and procedures to prevent or limit the impact of system failures, interruptions, and security breaches, but such events may still occur and may not be adequately addressed if they do occur. In addition, any compromise of our systems could deter customers from using our products and services. Although we rely on security systems to provide the security and authentication necessary to effect the secure transmission of data, these precautions may not protect our systems from compromises or breaches of security.

In addition, we outsource a majority of our data processing to third-party providers. If these third-party providers encounter difficulties, or if we have difficulty communicating with them, our ability to adequately process and account for transactions could be affected, and our business operations could be adversely affected. Threats to information security also exist in the processing of customer information through various other vendors and their personnel.

The occurrence of any system failures, interruptions, or breaches of security could damage our reputation and result in a loss of customers and business, subject us to additional regulatory scrutiny or expose us to litigation and possible financial liability. Any of these events could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

**Our success depends on retaining certain key personnel.**

Our performance largely depends on the talents and efforts of our experienced senior management team. We rely on key personnel to manage and operate our business, including major revenue generating functions such as loan and deposit generation. The loss of key staff may adversely affect our ability to maintain and manage these functions effectively, which could negatively affect our income. In addition, the loss of key personnel could result in increased recruiting and hiring expenses, which would reduce our net income. Our continued ability to compete effectively depends on our ability to attract new employees and to retain and motivate our existing employees.

**The cost of additional finance and accounting systems, procedures and controls to satisfy our new public company reporting requirements will increase our expenses.** 

The obligations of being a public company require significant expenditures and place additional demands on our management team. We have made, and will continue to make, changes to our internal controls and procedures for financial reporting and accounting systems to meet our reporting obligations as a public company. Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal control

------

over financial reporting. Any failure to achieve and maintain an effective internal control environment could have a material adverse effect on our business. At June 30, 2025, management identified a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting related to the untimely recognition of income from life insurance contracts resulting from the death of a former employee, which originated from differences in the contract balances reported by our bank owned life insurance ("BOLI") administrator as compared to the underlying insurance carriers. See Item 9A, "Controls and Procedures." If we neglect to implement and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, it could result in material misstatements in our financial statements, which could result in a restatement of our financial statements or cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, adversely affecting our stock price. Any such failure could also adversely affect the results of periodic management evaluations regarding the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules promulgated by the SEC under Section 404. These obligations have increased our operating expenses and could divert our management's attention from our operations.

**We are a community bank and our ability to maintain our reputation is critical to the success of our business and the failure to do so may materially adversely affect our performance.** 

We are a community bank, and our reputation is one of the most valuable components of our business. A key component of our business strategy is to rely on our reputation for customer service and knowledge of local markets to expand our presence by capturing new business opportunities from existing and prospective customers in our market area and contiguous areas. As such, we strive to conduct our business in a manner that enhances our reputation. This is done, in part, by recruiting, hiring and retaining employees who share our core values of being an integral part of the communities we serve, delivering superior service to our customers and caring about our customers. If our reputation is negatively affected by the actions of our employees, by our inability to conduct our operations in a manner that is appealing to current or prospective customers, or otherwise, our business and operating results may be materially adversely affected.

**Our risk management framework may not be effective in mitigating risk and reducing the potential for significant losses.** 

Our risk management framework is designed to minimize risk and loss to us. We seek to identify, measure, monitor, report and control our exposure to risk, including strategic, market, liquidity, compliance and operational risks. While we use broad and diversified risk monitoring and mitigation techniques, these techniques are limited because they cannot anticipate the existence or future development of currently unanticipated or unknown risks. Recent economic conditions and heightened legislative and regulatory scrutiny of the financial services industry, among other developments, have increased our level of risk. Accordingly, we could suffer losses if we fail to properly anticipate and manage these risks.

**While our Board of Directors takes an active role in cybersecurity risk tolerance, we rely to a large degree on management and outside consultants in overseeing cybersecurity risk management.** 

Our Board of Directors takes an active role in our cybersecurity risk management and all members receive cybersecurity training annually. The Board reviews the annual risk assessments and approves information technology policies, which include cybersecurity. Furthermore, our Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing all audit findings related to information technology general controls, internal and external vulnerability, and penetration testing. The Board receives an annual information security report from our Chief Technology Officer as it relates to cybersecurity and related issues. We also engage outside consultants to support our cybersecurity efforts. However, our directors do not have significant experience in cybersecurity risk management outside of the Company and therefore, its ability to fulfill its oversight function remains dependent on the input it receives from management and outside consultants.

**Natural disasters, acts of terrorism, global market disruptions and other external events could harm our business.**

Natural disasters can disrupt our operations, result in damage to our properties, reduce or destroy the value of the collateral for our loans and negatively affect the economies in which we operate, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. A significant natural disaster, such as a tornado,

------

hurricane, fire or flood, could have a material adverse impact on our ability to conduct business, and our insurance coverage may be insufficient to compensate for losses that may occur. Acts of terrorism, war, civil unrest, violence or human error could cause disruptions to our business or the economy as a whole. While we have established and regularly test disaster recovery procedures, the occurrence of any such event could have a material adverse effect on our business, operations and financial condition. Additionally, global markets may be adversely affected by natural disasters, the emergence of widespread health emergencies or pandemics, cyber attacks or campaigns, military conflict, terrorism or other geopolitical events. Global market disruptions may affect our business liquidity. Also, any sudden or prolonged market downturn in the U.S. or abroad, as a result of the above factors or otherwise could result in a decline in revenue and adversely affect our results of operations and financial condition, including capital and liquidity levels.

**<u>Risks Related to Regulatory Matters</u>** 

**Changes in laws and regulations and the cost of regulatory compliance with new laws and regulations may adversely affect our operations and/or increase our costs of operations.** 

We are subject to extensive regulation, supervision and examination by our banking regulators. Such regulation and supervision govern the activities in which a financial institution and its holding company may engage and are intended primarily for the protection of insurance funds and the depositors and borrowers of the Bank rather than for the protection of our shareholders. Regulatory authorities have extensive discretion in their supervisory and enforcement activities, including the ability to impose restrictions on our operations, classify our assets and determine the level of our allowance for credit losses. These regulations, along with the currently existing tax, accounting, securities, deposit insurance and monetary laws, rules, standards, policies, and interpretations, control the methods by which financial institutions conduct business, implement strategic initiatives, and govern financial reporting and disclosures. As a smaller institution, we are disproportionately affected by the ongoing increased costs of compliance with banking and other regulations. Any change in such regulation and oversight, whether in the form of regulatory policy, new regulations, legislation or supervisory action, may have a material impact on our operations. Further, changes in accounting standards can be both difficult to predict and involve judgment and discretion in their interpretation by us and our independent accounting firm. These changes could materially impact, potentially retroactively, how we report our financial condition and results of operations.

**Non-compliance with the USA PATRIOT Act, Bank Secrecy Act, or other laws and regulations could result in fines or sanctions.** 

The USA PATRIOT and Bank Secrecy Acts require financial institutions to develop programs to prevent financial institutions from being used for money laundering and terrorist activities. If such activities are detected, financial institutions are obligated to file suspicious activity reports with the U.S. Treasury's Office of Financial Crimes Enforcement Network. These rules require financial institutions to establish procedures for identifying and verifying the identity of customers seeking to open new financial accounts. Failure to comply with these regulations could result in fines or sanctions, including restrictions on conducting acquisitions or establishing new branches. The policies and procedures we have adopted that are designed to assist in compliance with these laws and regulations may not be effective in preventing violations of these laws and regulations.

**Monetary policies and regulations of the Federal Reserve could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.** 

In addition to being affected by general economic conditions, our earnings and growth are affected by the policies of the Federal Reserve. An important function of the Federal Reserve is to regulate the money supply and credit conditions. Among the instruments used by the Federal Reserve to implement these objectives are open market purchases and sales of U.S. government securities, adjustments of the discount rate and changes in banks' reserve requirements against bank deposits. These instruments are used in varying combinations to influence overall economic growth and the distribution of credit, bank loans, investments and deposits. Their use also affects interest rates charged on loans or paid on deposits.

The monetary policies and regulations of the Federal Reserve have a significant effect on the operating results of financial institutions.

------

**We are an emerging growth company, and any decision on our part to comply only with certain reduced reporting and disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies could make our common stock less attractive to investors.** 

We are an emerging growth company, and, for as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may choose to take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies but not to "emerging growth companies," including, but not limited to, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. As an emerging growth company, we also will not be subject to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which would require that our independent auditors review and attest as to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. We have also elected to use the extended transition period to delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are made applicable to private companies. Accordingly, our financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of public companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

**We are also a smaller reporting company, and even if we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, any decision on our part to comply only with certain reduced reporting and disclosure requirements applicable to smaller reporting companies could make our common stock less attractive to investors.** 

In addition to qualifying as an emerging growth company, we qualify as a "smaller reporting company" under the federal securities laws. For as long as we continue to be a smaller reporting company, we may choose to take advantage of reduced financial disclosure obligations and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result of any choices to reduce future disclosure, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and the price of our common stock may be more volatile.

**<u>Risks Related to Accounting Matters</u>** 

**Changes in accounting standards could affect reported earnings.** 

The bodies responsible for establishing accounting standards, including the Financial Accounting Standards Board and the Securities and Exchange Commission, periodically change the financial accounting and reporting guidance that govern the preparation of our financial statements. These changes can materially impact how we record and report our financial condition and results of operations. In some cases, we could be required to apply new or revised guidance retroactively.

**Changes in management's estimates and assumptions may have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and our financial condition or operating results.** 

In preparing our periodic reports, under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), our management is required to make estimates and assumptions as of specified dates. These estimates and assumptions are based on management's best estimates and experience at such times and are subject to substantial risk and uncertainty. Materially different results may occur as circumstances change and additional information becomes known. Areas requiring significant estimates and assumptions by management include our evaluation of the adequacy of our allowance for credit losses, the impairment of our goodwill and the determination of our deferred income taxes.

**<u>Risks Related to Our Common Stock</u>** 

**Our return on equity remains low following the stock offering, which could negatively affect our stock price.** 

Net income divided by average shareholders' equity, known as "return on equity," is a ratio many investors use to compare the performance of financial institutions. Our return on equity will be low until we are able to profitably leverage the additional capital we received from the offering. Our return on equity also will be negatively affected by added expenses associated with our employee stock ownership plan and the stock-based benefit plan.

------

Until we can increase our net interest income and noninterest income and leverage the capital raised in the offering, we expect our return on equity to be low, which may reduce our stock price.

**Various factors may make takeover attempts more difficult to achieve.** 

Certain provisions of our articles of incorporation and bylaws and state and federal banking laws, including regulatory approval requirements, could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of SR Bancorp without our Board of Directors' approval. Under applicable regulations, for a period of three years following completion of the conversion, no person may acquire beneficial ownership of more than 10% of our common stock without prior approval of the Federal Reserve. Under federal law, subject to certain exemptions, a person, entity or group must notify the Federal Reserve before acquiring control of a bank holding company. There also are provisions in our articles of incorporation and bylaws that may be used to delay or block a takeover attempt, including a provision that prohibits any person from voting more than 10% of our outstanding shares of common stock. Taken as a whole, these statutory and regulatory provisions and provisions in our articles of incorporation and bylaws could result in our being less attractive to a potential acquirer and thus could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

**<u>Risks Related to the Somerset Regal Charitable Foundation</u>** 

**Our contribution to the charitable foundation may not be tax deductible, which could reduce our profits.** 

We may not have sufficient profits to be able to fully use the tax deduction from our contribution to the charitable foundation. Under the Internal Revenue Code, an entity is permitted to deduct up to 10% of its taxable income (generally income before federal income taxes and charitable contributions expense) in any one year for charitable contributions. Any contribution in excess of the 10% limit may be deducted for federal income tax purposes over each of the five years following the year in which the charitable contribution is made. Accordingly, a charitable contribution could, if necessary, be deducted over a six-year period and expires thereafter.

**Item 1B. Unresolved Staff Comments.** 

Not applicable.

**Item 1C. Cybersecurity.**

Our risk management program is designed to identify, assess and mitigate risks across various aspects of our company, including financial, operational, regulatory, reputational and legal. Cybersecurity is a critical component of this program as we rely extensively on various information systems and other electronic resources to operate our business. Additionally, we rely to a great extent on third-party service providers to perform critical functions to assist in maintaining customer accounts, providing electronic banking services and financial reporting. Our Information Security Officer, who is a member of our Executive Management Team, is primarily responsible for managing our cybersecurity program. Our Information Security Officer has direct access to our Board of Directors and is authorized to evaluate our cybersecurity posture throughout the Company to ensure the implementation of appropriate controls over our systems and applications to maintain an effective cybersecurity program. The information security officer consults, where appropriate, with both our staff of IT professionals and, at times, outside security professionals to ensure the implementation of appropriate controls.

We have implemented a cybersecurity risk management program to protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of our information and information technology environment. Our cybersecurity risk management program consists of an extensive range of risk assessments to identify the cyber threats to our environment along with multiple policies and procedures to mitigate the risks identified, including, but not limited to, information technology and cybersecurity standards, incident response and disaster recovery/business continuity. Employees receive regular information and cybersecurity training and reminders throughout the year.

Daily operations are monitored by a dedicated team of information technology professionals complemented by management's monitoring of critical information security monitoring reports along with our third-party security vendor who provides for 24x7 monitoring of our external connections and email system. Defined incident response

------

procedures are maintained, including a requirement that our security vendor notify designated members of management when unusual or suspicious activity is identified.

To test and evaluate the effectiveness of our cybersecurity program, we are subject to annual audits of our program by an outside audit firm who specializes in both information technology and cybersecurity assessments. These assessments include a review of general IT controls, external penetration assessments, internal penetration assessments and security awareness testing of our staff.

Our vendor management program is designed to identify the risks associated with using third-party service providers to run our business. Third-party service providers that present cyber risk to our operations must meet specific criteria, such as the maintenance of appropriate controls, processes and monitoring to ensure the confidentiality, integrity and availability of data and resources prior to being onboarded. In addition to initial assessments of our critical third-party service provides, we perform regular on-going monitoring of these critical third parties' infrastructure and performance, including data security and the effectiveness of their cybersecurity risk management programs.

Our Board of Directors, along with our Information Technology Committee, which is comprised of key members of senior management, are actively involved in providing oversight of our cybersecurity program. Monthly updates are provided to our Board regarding the status of our program, including key monitoring metrics and trends noted both internally and within our industry. Our Board reviews and approves all cybersecurity-related risk assessments, polices and formalized reviews performed throughout the year.

**Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.** 

The objective of this section is to assist in the understanding of the financial performance of the Company and its subsidiaries through a discussion of our results of operations and financial condition as of the dates presented. You should read this discussion in conjunction with the SR Bancorp Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements that appear at the end of this document.

**Conversion, Stock Offering and Merger**

The conversion of Somerset Savings Bank, SLA from the mutual to stock form of organization and related stock offering by SR Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"), the holding company for Somerset Savings Bank, SLA, was completed on September 19, 2023. The Company's common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the trading symbol "SRBK" on September 20, 2023.

The Company sold 9,055,172 shares of its common stock at a price of $10.00 per share, which included 760,634 shares sold to Somerset Regal Bank's Employee Stock Ownership Plan. Additionally, the Company contributed 452,758 shares and $906,000 in cash to the Somerset Regal Charitable Foundation, Inc., a charitable foundation formed in connection with the conversion. Upon the completion of the conversion and offering, 9,507,930 shares of Company common stock were outstanding.

Promptly following the completion of the conversion and related stock offering, Regal Bancorp, Inc., a New Jersey corporation ("Regal Bancorp"), merged with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving entity (the "Merger"). Immediately following the Merger, Regal Bank, a New Jersey chartered commercial bank headquartered in Livingston, New Jersey and the wholly-owned subsidiary of Regal Bancorp, merged with and into Somerset Bank, which had converted to a commercial bank charter, and was renamed Somerset Regal Bank (the "Bank"). In connection with the Merger, each outstanding share of Regal Bancorp common stock converted into the right to receive $23.00 in cash. The Merger was completed on September 19, 2023.

**Overview** 

Our principal business is to acquire deposits from individuals and businesses in the communities surrounding our offices and to use these deposits to fund loans.

Somerset Regal Bank is a New Jersey-chartered commercial bank that operates from 14 branches in Essex, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Morris, Somerset and Union Counties, New Jersey. Somerset Regal Bank offers a variety of deposit and loan products to individuals and small businesses, most of which are located in our primary market. The acquisition of Regal Bancorp and its wholly owned subsidiary, Regal Bank, expanded our market presence into Essex, Morris and Union Counties, New Jersey and enhanced our market presence in Somerset County, New Jersey. At June 30, 2025, SR Bancorp had total assets of $1.08 billion, deposits of $846.0 million and total equity of $193.8 million.

***Income*.** Our primary source of pre-tax income is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income, which is the income that we earn on our loans and investments, and interest expense, which is the interest that we pay on our deposits. Changes in levels of interest rates affect our net interest income.

A secondary source of income is noninterest income, which is revenue that we receive from providing products and services. The majority of our noninterest income generally comes from service charges and fees related to deposit accounts and net gains in cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance. In some years, we recognize income from the sale of securities.

------

***Allowance for Credit Losses*.** The allowance for credit losses is a valuation allowance for the current expected credit losses in the loan portfolio. We evaluate the need to establish allowances against losses on loans on a quarterly basis. When additional allowances are necessary, a provision for credit losses is charged to earnings. Loans are charged against the allowance when management believes that the collectability of the principal loan amount is not probable. Recoveries on loans previously charged off, if any, are credited to the allowance for credit losses when realized.

***Expenses.*** The noninterest expenses we incur in operating our business consist of salaries and employee benefits expenses, occupancy expenses, furniture and equipment expenses, data processing, advertising, FDIC insurance premiums, directors fees, professional fees, insurance, telephone, postage and supplies and other miscellaneous expenses.

Our largest noninterest expense is salaries and employee benefits, which consist primarily of salaries and wages paid to our employees, payroll taxes, expenses for retirement plans and other employee benefits including disability insurance and health insurance and compensation expenses related to the recently implemented employee stock ownership plan.

Occupancy expenses and furniture and equipment expenses are the fixed and variable costs of buildings and equipment, and consist primarily of depreciation charges, furniture and equipment expenses, repair and maintenance costs, real estate taxes and costs of utilities. Depreciation of premises and equipment is computed using a straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the related assets or the expected lease terms, if shorter.

Data processing expenses are fees paid to third parties for use of their software and for processing customer information, deposits and loans.

Advertising includes most marketing expenses including multi-media advertising (public and in-branch), promotional events and materials, civic and sales focused memberships, and community support.

Federal deposit insurance premiums are payments we make to the FDIC for insurance of our deposit accounts.

Professional fees include legal, accounting, auditing, risk management and payroll processing expenses.

Insurance includes expenses for worker's compensation, property and casualty insurance and professional insurance.

Other expenses include expenses for directors fees, office supplies, postage, telephone and other miscellaneous operating expenses.

***Critical Accounting Policies*** 

Certain of our accounting policies are important to the presentation of our financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates associated with these policies are susceptible to material changes as a result of changes in facts and circumstances. Facts and circumstances that could affect these judgments include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, changes in the performance of the economy and changes in the financial condition of borrowers. Our significant accounting policies are discussed in detail in Note 1 to our Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this document.

The JOBS Act contains provisions that, among other things, reduce certain reporting requirements for qualifying public companies. As an "emerging growth company" we plan to delay adoption of new or revised accounting pronouncements applicable to public companies until such pronouncements are made applicable to private companies. Accordingly, our consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of public companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

------

Management believes our most critical accounting policies, which involve the most complex or subjective decisions or assessments, are as follows: the determination of the allowance for credit losses, the assessment of the impairment of goodwill and intangible assets and the valuation of our deferred tax assets.

*Allowance for Credit Losses*: The allowance for credit losses ("ACL"), calculated in accordance with ASC 326, is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans. The ACL represents an amount that, in management's judgment, is adequate to absorb the lifetime expected credit losses that may be experienced on outstanding loans at the balance sheet date based on the evaluation of the size and current risk characteristics of the loan portfolio, past events, current conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts of economic conditions and prepayment experience. The allowance for credit losses is measured and recorded upon the initial recognition of a financial asset. Determination of the adequacy of the allowance is inherently complex and requires the use of significant and highly subjective estimates. Loans are charged-off against the allowance when deemed uncollectible by management. Adjustments to the allowance are reported in our income statement as a component of the provision for credit losses.

In calculating the allowance for credit losses, loans are segmented into pools based upon similar characteristics and risk profiles. Common characteristics and risk profiles include the type of loan, underlying collateral, geographical similarity and historical or expected credit loss patterns. The Company applies two methodologies to estimate the allowance on its pooled portfolio segments: a cohort method based on common characteristics and the weighted average remaining life method. The models related to these methodologies utilize the Company's historical default and loss experience adjusted for future economic forecasts. The reasonable and supportable forecast period represents a one-year economic outlook for the applicable economic variables.

In some cases, management may determine that an individual loan exhibits unique risk characteristics that differentiate the loan from other loans within our loan pools. In such cases, the loans are evaluated for expected credit losses on an individual basis and excluded from the collective evaluation. Specific allocations of the allowance for credit losses are determined by analyzing, among other things, the borrower's ability to repay amounts owed, collateral deficiencies, the relative risk rating of the loan and economic conditions affecting the borrower.

Management qualitatively adjusts model results for risk factors that are not considered within our modeling processes but are nonetheless relevant in assessing the expected credit losses within our loan pools. These qualitative factor adjustments may increase or decrease management's estimate of expected credit losses by a calculated percentage or amount based upon the estimated level of risk. The various risks that may be considered in making qualitative factor adjustments include, among other things: the impact of changes in lending policies and procedures, including changes in underwriting standards and practices for collections, write-offs, and recoveries; actual and expected changes in national, regional, and local economic and business conditions and developments that affect the collectability of the loan pools; changes in the composition and size of the loan portfolio and in the terms of the underlying loans; changes in the experience, ability, and depth of our lending management and staff; changes in volume and severity of past due and nonaccrual assets; changes to the quality of our internal loan review system; the existence, growth, and effect of any concentrations of credit; and regulatory, legal and environmental events. Management believes it uses relevant information available to make determinations about the allowance and that it has established the existing allowance in accordance with GAAP. However, the determination of the allowance requires significant judgment, and estimates of expected lifetime losses in the loan portfolio can vary significantly from the amounts actually observed. While management uses available information to recognize expected losses, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in the loans comprising the portfolio, changes in the current and forecasted economic conditions, changes to the interest rate environment and changes in the financial condition of borrowers.

*Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets*: Our intangible assets consist primarily of goodwill and core deposit intangibles. The initial recording of goodwill and other intangible assets requires subjective judgments concerning estimates of the fair value of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities. Goodwill is not amortized but is subject to annual tests for impairment, or more often if events or circumstances indicate it may be impaired. We may elect to perform a qualitative assessment as a part of the annual impairment test. If the qualitative assessment indicates it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, or if we elect not to perform a qualitative assessment, then we would be required to perform a quantitative test for goodwill impairment. If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit less than the carrying value, goodwill is impaired and is written down to its estimated fair value.

------

In the year ended June 30, 2025, we performed a qualitative assessment of goodwill. Based on that assessment, we determined that it was more likely than not that the unit's fair value was not less than its carrying amount. We concluded that our goodwill was not impaired as of June 30, 2025.

Core deposit intangibles are amortized on an accelerated basis using an estimated life of ten years. The core deposit intangibles are evaluated annually for impairment in accordance with GAAP. An impairment loss will be recognized if the carrying amount of the intangible asset is not recoverable and exceeds fair value. The carrying amount of the intangible asset is not considered recoverable if it exceeds the sum of the undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset.

*Income Taxes*: Income taxes are accounted for using the asset and liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. The measurement of deferred tax assets is reduced by a valuation allowance for the amount of the deferred tax asset that is more likely than not to be realized.

A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is "more likely than not" that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the "more likely than not" test, no tax benefit is recorded.

We recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in other operating expenses.

**Business Strategy** 

Our business strategy is to operate and grow a profitable community-oriented financial institution. We plan to achieve this by:

***Leveraging our residential and commercial lending expertise to pursue new opportunities to increase lending in our primary market area and expand our existing loan relationships***. Prior to the Merger, Somerset Savings Bank's principal business activity historically had been the origination of residential mortgage loans, while Regal Bank's principal business activity historically had been the origination of multi-family and commercial real estate loans. Somerset Regal Bank will continue to provide products and services that meet the needs of the existing residential lending customers and be able to offer such products, services and expertise to the former Regal Bank customers throughout its newly-expanded market area. Additionally, Somerset Regal Bank will continue to provide products and services that meet the needs of the existing commercial customers and be able to offer such products, services and expertise to the former Somerset Savings Bank customers throughout its newly-expanded market area.

The opportunity for both banks to diversify their loan portfolios and leverage their lending expertise in new markets were primary factors for the Merger. Moreover, with the additional capital raised in the stock offering, we can increase our loan originations in our market area and originate loans with larger balances. Somerset Regal Bank's legal lending limit was $29.1 million at June 30, 2025. While Somerset Regal Bank's credit risk management policies will result in an internal loan to one borrower limit less than Somerset Regal Bank's regulatory limit, the legal lending limit will provide opportunities to expand existing customer relationships and reach new larger customers.

We intend to leverage the SBA preferred lender expertise to expand SBA lending activity in our market areas. SBA lending capabilities provide an opportunity to establish additional commercial account relationships and the potential to generate additional noninterest income related to the sale and servicing of the guaranteed portion of an SBA loan on the secondary market.

------

***Continuing to use prudent underwriting practices to maintain a high-quality loan portfolio.*** Maintaining high asset quality is a key to long-term financial success. Somerset Regal Bank seeks to grow its loan portfolio while keeping non-performing assets to a minimum. Somerset Regal Bank's strategy for credit risk management focuses on having an experienced team of credit professionals, well-defined policies and procedures, appropriate and conservative loan underwriting criteria and active credit monitoring. At June 30, 2025, Somerset Regal Bank had no non-performing loans.

***Building profitable business and consumer relationships through enhanced product offerings and by continuing to provide superior customer service.*** We are a full-service financial services company offering our customers a broad range of loan and deposit products and services, including internet banking, which enables our customers to pay bills on-line. Our commercial lending capacity has been significantly enhanced through our merger, which allows us to continue to increase the commercial real estate and commercial business loans we originate and better serve the small businesses in our market area, and realize higher fees and yields associated with such type of lending. Further, commercial deposit accounts, generally yield higher average balances than can be acquired from retail deposit relationships.

As a community-oriented financial institution, we emphasize providing superior customer service to attract and retain customers. We deliver personalized service and respond with flexibility to customer needs. We believe that our community orientation is attractive to our customers and distinguishes us from the larger institutions that operate in our area. Further, given our attractive market area, we believe we are well-positioned to increase our customer relationships without a proportional increase in overhead expense or operating risk.

***Increasing transaction deposit accounts and deposit balances.*** Deposits are our primary source of funds for lending and investment. We intend to focus on expanding our core deposits (which we define as all deposits except certificates of deposit). Core deposits represented 68.3% of our total deposits at June 30, 2025 compared to 66.2% of our total deposits at June 30, 2024. We believe core deposits will increase by increasing our commercial lending activities and enhancing our relationships with retail customers through our commitment to quality customer service along with the introduction of additional products and services, such as remote deposit capture and enhanced online business account services.

***Continuing to leverage technology to maintain efficient operations and enhance customer service.*** We have historically focused on leveraging technology to maintain efficient operations and provide our customers with secure means to conduct business outside of our traditional branch network. Customer facing applications include online banking and mobile banking with bill payment capabilities, mobile deposit and debit card control functionality. We have been a Zelle<sup>™</sup> participant since 2019, which has allowed our customers the ability to send and receive real-time payments online and through mobile banking. Our online loan application platform affords customers the convenience of submitting a loan application online. Internally we leverage technology to achieve efficiencies for tasks such as document preparation and retention, data analytics and call report preparation. We intend to build on this foundation and have plans to add, among other services, online deposit account opening for existing customers, tokenization (meaning the process of exchanging sensitive data with a less sensitive equivalent (or token), specifically Apply Pay<sup>©</sup>, Google Pay<sup>©</sup> and Samsung Pay<sup>©</sup>), and expanded business online banking capabilities including wire transfer origination and ACH origination services. These additional services are in various stages of implementation, and we anticipate customer availability for most prior to the end of 2024. Our investment in technology allows us to remain competitive, effectively serve our customers and results in operating efficiencies.

**Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024** 

***Total Assets.*** Total assets increased $63.6 million, or 6.2%, to $1.08 billion at June 30, 2025 from $1.02 billion at June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by new loan originations, resulting in a net increase of $65.3 million in loans receivable and an $11.9 million increase in cash and cash equivalents, offset by a $14.3 million decrease in securities.

***Cash and Cash Equivalents***. Cash and cash equivalents increased $11.9 million, or 25.9%, to $57.8 million at June 30, 2025 from $45.9 million at June 30, 2024 primarily due to a $38.9 million increase in deposits, borrowings of $30.0 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York during the year ended June 30, 2025 and the decrease in securities.

------

***Securities Held-to-Maturity***. Securities held-to-maturity decreased $14.3 million, or 9.2%, to $141.8 million at June 30, 2025 from $156.1 million at June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to principal repayments and maturities.

***Loans***. Loans receivable, net, increased $65.3 million, or 8.9%, to $797.2 million at June 30, 2025 from $731.9 million at June 30, 2024, driven by increases in residential mortgage loans of $32.6 million and multi-family loans of $40.0 million.

***Bank Owned Life Insurance***. Bank owned life insurance decreased $486,000, or 1.3%, to $36.6 million at June 30, 2025 from $37.1 million at June 30, 2024. The reduction was primarily attributable to death benefit proceeds under existing policies.

***Goodwill and Intangible Assets***. The Company recognized goodwill and a core deposit premium intangible through the acquisition of Regal Bancorp. At the time of acquisition, goodwill was $20.5 million and the core deposit premium intangible asset was $9.1 million. Finalization of the purchase allocation reduced goodwill to $20.4 million at June 30, 2024. No impairment loss was recognized on goodwill during the year ended June 30, 2025. The carrying amount of the core deposit premium intangible, net of accumulated amortization, was $6.3 million at June 30, 2025.

***Total Liabilities***. Total liabilities increased $69.3 million, or 8.4%, to $890.6 million at June 30, 2025 from $821.4 million at June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily the result of an increase in deposits of $38.9 million and an increase in borrowings of $30.0 million.

***Deposits***. Deposits increased $38.9 million, or 4.8%, to $846.0 million at June 30, 2025 from $807.1 million at June 30, 2024. Increases in interest-bearing deposit accounts resulted from the Company having raised rates on certain interest-bearing deposit products in an effort to remain competitive in the market area. At June 30, 2025, $114.1 million, or 13.5%, of total deposits consisted of noninterest-bearing deposits. At June 30, 2025, $145.4 million, or 17.2%, of total deposits were uninsured.

***Borrowings***. During the year ended June 30, 2025, the Company borrowed $30.0 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York to provide for additional liquidity to fund new loans. At June 30, 2024, there were no outstanding borrowings.

***Total Equity***. Total equity decreased $5.7 million, or 2.9%, to $193.8 million at June 30, 2025 from $199.5 million at June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to the repurchase of 936,991 shares of common stock at a cost of $11.3 million, partially offset by net income of $5.1 million.

**Comparison of Operating Results for the Years Ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024**

***General.*** Net income increased $16.0 million to $5.1 million for the year ended June 30, 2025 from a net loss of $10.9 million for the year ended June 30, 2024. Net income for the year ended June 30, 2025 included $2.8 million of net accretion income related to fair value adjustments resulting from the Merger. Net loss for the year ended June 30, 2024 included $4.4 million of Merger-related non-interest expenses and a $4.2 million provision for credit losses related to the acquisition of Regal Bancorp, which is described in greater detail below, as well as a $5.4 million charitable contribution to establish the Somerset Regal Charitable Foundation. In addition, a $4.4 million loss on the sale of available-for-sale securities was incurred during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 as part of the balance sheet restructuring strategy. Excluding the aforementioned one-time expenses, offset by $4.1 million of net accretion income related to fair value adjustments, net income for the year ended June 30, 2024 would have been $1.0 million

***Interest Income.*** Interest income increased $5.4 million, or 13.3%, to $46.3 million for the year ended June 30, 2025 from $40.9 million for the year ended June 30, 2024 due to a 15 basis point increase in the yield on interest-earning assets and a $87.9 million increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets. The increase resulted from a $8.1 million, or 24.0%, increase in interest income on loans due to the increased size of the loan portfolio, as well as a higher average yield on the loan portfolio due to an increased proportion of higher-yielding

------

commercial real estate loans. The increase was offset by a $762,000 decrease in interest income on securities and a $1.7 million decrease in interest income from other interest-earning assets due to lower average balances and a lower interest rate environment. The decrease in interest income on securities was due to a $44.2 million decrease in the average balance of securities, resulting primarily from the sale of $35.4 million of lower-yielding securities in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2024 as part of the balance sheet restructuring, and a two basis point decrease in the average yield on securities due to the lower interest rate environment, which was mitigated by the balance sheet restructuring.

***Interest Expense.*** Interest expense increased $5.2 million, or 45.6%, to $16.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2025 from $11.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2024, primarily due to a $4.9 million increase in interest expense on deposits. Interest expense on interest-bearing demand deposits increased due to an increase of $96.4 million in the average balance and an increase of 112 basis points in the cost of interest-bearing deposits to 1.68% for the year ended June 30, 2025 from 0.56% for the year ended June 30, 2024 as the Bank raised rates on certain interest-bearing deposit products in an effort to remain competitive in the market area. Interest expense on certificates of deposit increased $1.0 million due to a $24.9 million increase in the average balance and an increase in the average rate on certificates of deposit of four basis points to 3.83% for the year ended June 30, 2025 from 3.79% for the year ended June 30, 2024 due to the highly competitive interest rate environment in our market area. Interest expense on borrowings increased by $370,000 due to a higher average outstanding balance, offset by a 82 basis point decrease in the rate paid.

***Net Interest Income.*** Net interest income increased $210,000, or 0.7%, to $29.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2025 from $29.4 million for the year ended June 30, 2024. Net interest rate spread decreased 38 basis points to 2.35% for the year ended June 30, 2025 from 2.73% for the year ended June 30, 2024. Net interest margin decreased 26 basis points to 2.93% for the year ended June 30, 2025 from 3.19% for the year ended June 30, 2024. Net interest-earning assets increased $14.9 million, or 6.0%, to $262.1 million for the year ended June 30, 2025 from $247.2 million for the year ended June 30, 2024. The decreases in net interest rate spread and net interest margin were primarily a result of the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increasing at a higher rate than the yield on interest-earning assets.

------

***Average Balances and Yields*.** The following table sets forth average balance sheets, average yields and costs, and certain other information for the periods indicated. No tax-equivalent yield adjustments have been made, as the effects are immaterial. Average balances are calculated using month-end average balances, rather than daily average balances. We believe the use of month-end average balances is representative of our operations. Non-accrual loans are included in average balances only. Average yields include the effect of deferred fees, discounts, and premiums that are amortized or accreted to interest income or interest expense. Deferred loan fees are immaterial.

**Rate/Volume Analysis** 

The following table sets forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income. The rate column shows the effects attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). The volume column shows the effects attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate). The net column represents the sum of the prior columns. Changes attributable to both rate and volume that cannot be segregated have been allocated proportionately based on the changes due to rate and the changes due to volume.

***Provision for Credit Losses.*** We establish provisions for credit losses, which are charged to operations in order to maintain the allowance for credit losses at a level necessary to absorb current expected credit losses in the loan portfolio at the balance sheet date. In determining the level of the allowance for credit losses, we consider, among other things, loss experience, evaluations of real estate collateral, current and reasonably supportable economic conditions, volume and type of lending, adverse situations that may affect a borrower's ability to repay a loan and the levels of delinquent and classified loans. The amount of the allowance is based on estimates and the ultimate losses may vary from such estimates as more information becomes available or conditions change. We assess the allowance for credit losses and make provisions for credit losses on a monthly basis.

Based on our evaluation of the above factors, we recorded a provision for credit losses of $133,000 for the year ended June 30, 2025 compared to a provision for credit losses of $4.1 million for the year ended June 30, 2024, which was related to the Merger. The provision of $133,000 was due to provisions of $288,000 reflecting loan growth, offset by a recovery of $155,000 recorded during in the first quarter resulting from updates made to model assumptions in the calculation of the allowance for credit losses. The Bank had no charge-offs during the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 and no non-performing loans at June 30, 2025 compared to $50,000 of non-performing loans at June 30, 2024. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans was 0.67% at June 30, 2025 compared to 0.71% at June 30, 2024.

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total noninterest income (loss) | $3734 | $(2491) | $6225 | 249.9% |

---

Noninterest income increased $6.2 million, or 249.9%, to income of $3.7 million for the year ended June 30, 2025 from a loss of $2.5 million for the year ended June 30, 2024, primarily as a result of the $4.5 million loss incurred on the sale of securities as part of the Company's balance sheet restructuring in fiscal 2024 and $1.5 million gain in life insurance proceeds gain in connection with the death benefit on a former employee. An increase of $0.1 million in the cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance and $76,000 in service charges and fees on deposit accounts also contributed to the increase in noninterest income.

***Noninterest Expense*.** Noninterest expense was as follows:

| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total noninterest expense | $27055 | $34583 | $(7528) | (21.8)% |

---

Noninterest expense decreased $7.5 million, or 21.8%, to $27.1 million for the year ended June 30, 2025 from $34.6 million for the year ended June 30, 2024, primarily as a result of a $5.4 million charitable contribution, contained within other expenses, as the Company established the Somerset Regal Charitable Foundation in connection with its conversion to the stock form of organization and funded it with 452,758 shares of SR Bancorp common stock and $905,517 in cash. The decrease was also due to a decrease in salaries and employee benefits for change in control payments totaling $1.2 million, or 7.9%, related to the Merger, a decrease in data processing expenses primarily due to the payment of a $414,000 early termination fee related to the acquisition of Regal Bancorp, and additional miscellaneous expenses related to the Merger totaling $72,000.

***Income Tax Expense.*** The provision for income taxes was $991,000 for the year ended June 30, 2025, compared to a benefit of $909,000 for the year ended June 30, 2024. The Company's effective tax rate was 16.2% for the year ended June 30, 2025 compared to 7.7% for the year ended June 30, 2024.

**Market Risk** 

***General*.** Our most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk because, as a financial institution, the majority of our assets and liabilities are sensitive to changes in interest rates. Therefore, a principal part of our operations is to manage interest rate risk and limit the exposure of our financial condition and results of operations to changes in market interest rates. Our ALCO/Investment Committee, which consists of members of management, is responsible for evaluating the interest rate risk in our assets and liabilities, for determining the level of risk that is appropriate, given our business strategy, operating environment, capital, liquidity and performance objectives, and for managing this risk consistent with the policy and guidelines approved by our Board of Directors. We currently utilize a third-party modeling program, prepared on a quarterly basis, to evaluate our sensitivity to changing interest rates.

We have sought to manage our interest rate risk in order to minimize the exposure of our earnings and capital to changes in interest rates. We have implemented the following strategies to manage our interest rate risk:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•growing transaction deposit accounts;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•emphasizing the origination of shorter-term commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•continuing to price our one-to-four family residential real estate loan products in a way that encourages borrowers to select our adjustable-rate loans as opposed to longer-term, fixed-rate loans.

By following these strategies, we believe that we are better positioned to react to changes in market interest rates.

We generally do not engage in hedging activities, such as engaging in futures or options, or investing in high-risk mortgage derivatives, such as collateralized mortgage obligation residual interests, real estate mortgage investment conduit residual interests or stripped mortgage-backed securities.

***Economic Value of Equity*.** We compute amounts by which the net present value of our cash flow from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet items (economic value of equity "EVE") would change in the event of a range of assumed changes in market interest rates. We measure potential change in our EVE through the use of a financial model. This model uses a discounted cash flow analysis and an option-based pricing approach to measure the interest rate sensitivity of net portfolio value. A basis point equals one-hundredth of one percent, and 100 basis points equals one percent. An increase in interest rates from 3% to 4% would mean, for example, a 100-basis point increase in the "Basis Point Change in Interest Rates" column below.

The table below sets forth, as of June 30, 2025 the calculation of the estimated changes in our EVE that would result from the designated immediate changes in the United States Treasury yield curve.

(2)EVE is the discounted present value of expected cash flows from assets, liabilities and off-balance sheet contracts.

The table above indicates that at June 30, 2025, in the event of an instantaneous parallel 200 basis point increase in interest rates, we would experience a 18.32% decrease in EVE, and in the event of an instantaneous 200 basis point decrease in interest rates, we would experience a 10.24% increase in EVE.

***Change in Net Interest Income***. The following table sets forth, as of June 30, 2025, the calculation of the estimated changes in our net interest income ("NII") that would result from the designated immediate changes in the United States Treasury yield curve.

(1)Assumes an immediate uniform change in interest rates at all maturities.

The table above indicates that at June 30, 2025, after one year, we would have experienced an 6.50% decrease in NII in the event of an instantaneous parallel 200 basis point increase in market interest rates and an 0.95% increase in NII in the event of an instantaneous 200 basis point decrease in market interest rates.

Certain shortcomings are inherent in the methodologies used in the above interest rate risk measurements. Modeling changes require making certain assumptions that may or may not reflect the manner in which actual yields and costs respond to changes in market interest rates. The above table assumes that the composition of our interest sensitive assets and liabilities existing at the date indicated remains constant uniformly across the yield curve regardless of the duration or repricing of specific assets and liabilities. Accordingly, although the table provides an indication of our interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time, such measurements are not intended to and do not provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates on our NPV and will differ from actual results.

**Liquidity and Capital Resources** 

Liquidity is the ability to fund assets and meet obligations as they come due. Our primary sources of funds consist of deposit inflows, loan repayments, and repayments from investment securities. In addition, we have the ability to borrow in the wholesale markets or from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and mortgage prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. Our ALCO/Investment Committee is responsible for establishing and monitoring our liquidity targets and strategies in order to ensure that sufficient liquidity exists for meeting the borrowing needs and deposit withdrawals of our customers as well as unanticipated contingencies. We seek to maintain a ratio of liquid assets (including cash and federal funds sold) as a percentage of total deposits ranging between 4% and 30%. At June 30, 2025, this ratio was 6.8%. We believe that we have sufficient sources of liquidity to satisfy our short- and long-term liquidity needs as of June 30, 2025.

------

We regularly adjust our investments in liquid assets based upon our assessment of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)expected loan demand;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii)expected deposit flows;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)yields available on interest-earning deposits and securities; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv)the objectives of our asset/liability management program.

Excess cash is invested generally in interest-earning deposits and short- and intermediate-term securities.

Our most liquid assets are cash and cash equivalents. The levels of these assets depend on our operating, financing and investing activities during any given period. At June 30, 2025, cash and cash equivalents totaled $57.8 million.

At June 30, 2025, we had $41.0 million in outstanding loan commitments and $38.0 million of unused lines of credit. Certificates of deposit due within one year of June 30, 2025 totaled $239.1 million, or 28.3%, of total deposits. If these deposits do not remain with us, we will be required to seek other sources of funds, including loan sales, other deposit products, including replacement certificates of deposit, securities sold under agreements to repurchase (repurchase agreements) or advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York and other borrowing sources. Depending on market conditions, we may be required to pay higher rates on such deposits or other borrowings than we currently pay on the certificates of deposit due on or after June 30, 2025. We believe, however, based on past experience that a significant portion of such deposits will remain with us. We have the ability to attract and retain deposits by adjusting the interest rates offered.

Our cash flows are derived from operating activities, investing activities and financing activities as reported in our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in our Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our primary investing activities are originating and purchasing loans and purchasing mortgage-backed securities. During the year ended June 30, 2025, we originated $97.6 million of loans and purchased $41.2 million. We had no purchases of securities during the years ended June 30, 2025 or June 30, 2024.

Financing activities consist primarily of activity in deposit accounts, borrowings, repurchases of and dividends paid on common stock. Deposits increased $38.9 million, or 4.8%, to $846.0 million at June 30, 2025 from $807.1 million at June 30, 2024. Deposit flows are affected by the overall level of interest rates, the interest rates and products offered by us and our local competitors, and by other factors.

We had outstanding borrowings of $30.0 million as of June 30, 2025 and none as of June 30, 2024. We had $70.0 million of additional borrowing capacity at FHLB as of June 30, 2025.

We had no outstanding borrowings with the Federal Reserve Bank at June 30, 2025, or June 30, 2024 and did not borrow from the FRB-NY in the year ended June 30, 2025. We had $25.0 million of available borrowing capacity at FRB-NY as of June 30, 2025.

We repurchased 936,991 shares of our common stock during the year ended June 30, 2025 at a cost of $11.3 million and paid dividends on common stock of $444,000.

**Regulatory Capital**

Somerset Regal Bank is subject to various regulatory capital requirements, including a risk-based capital measure. The risk-based capital guidelines include both a definition of capital and a framework for calculating risk-weighted assets by assigning balance sheet assets and off-balance sheet items to broad risk categories. At June 30, 2025, Somerset Regal Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements. Somerset Regal Bank is considered "well capitalized" under regulatory guidelines. See "*Regulation and Supervision—Federal Banking Regulation—Capital Requirements*" and Note 15 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

**Recent Accounting Pronouncements** 

For a discussion of the impact of recent accounting pronouncements, see Note 1 of the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

**Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices** 

Our consolidated financial statements and related notes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). GAAP generally requires the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without consideration for changes in the relative purchasing power of money over time due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of our operations. Unlike industrial companies, our assets and liabilities are primarily monetary in nature. As a result, changes in market interest rates have a greater impact on our performance than the effects of inflation.

**Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the fiscal year (the "Evaluation Date"). Based upon that evaluation, the Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective because of the material weakness described below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting.

Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting based on criteria established in "Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)" issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on this assessment, management, including our Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of June 30, 2025 based on the criteria of the "Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)." Management identified a material weakness in internal controls related to the untimely recognition of income from life insurance contracts resulting from the death of a former employee. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the registrant's annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. The identified

------

material weakness resulted in a material misstatement in the Company's consolidated financial statements. We are implementing remedial changes to improve our internal control over financial reporting described below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)Remediation Activities

Management has instituted a new reconciliation control to address the above control deficiency. The deficiency originated from differences in the contract balances reported by our bank-owned life insurance ("BOLI") administrator as compared to the underlying insurance carriers. The new control requires that in the event of a death of an individual insured by any active BOLI policies, management will obtain the death benefit information for which it is contractually entitled to receive from the insurance carriers and reconcile such information to the BOLI administrator records. All required entries will be recorded in the period in which the death occurred. Management believes the foregoing efforts will effectively remediate the material weakness. As management continues to evaluate and work to improve its internal control over financial reporting, management may determine to take additional measures to address control deficiencies or determine to modify the remediation plan described above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)Attestation Report of the Registered Public Accounting Firm.

Not applicable because the Company is an emerging growth company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)Changes in internal controls.

Other than the changes described above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

**REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM** 

To the stakeholders and the Board of Directors of SR Bancorp Inc:

**Opinion on the Financial Statements** 

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition of SR Bancorp Inc. and Subsidiaries (the "Company") as of June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income (loss), changes in equity, and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

**Basis for Opinion** 

These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB and in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have not been able to determine the specific year that we began serving as the Company's auditor; however, we are aware that we have served as the Company's auditor since at least 1994.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

June 30, 2025 and 2024

**1.** **Summary of Significant Accounting Policies** 

**Conversion, Stock Offering and Merger**

The conversion of Somerset Savings Bank, SLA from the mutual to stock form of organization and related stock offering by SR Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company"), the holding company for Somerset Savings Bank, SLA, was completed on September 19, 2023. The Company's common stock began trading on the Nasdaq Capital Market under the trading symbol "SRBK" on September 20, 2023.

The Company sold 9,055,172 shares of its common stock at a price of $10.00 per share, which included 760,634 shares sold to Somerset Regal Bank's Employee Stock Ownership Plan. Additionally, the Company contributed 452,758 shares and $905,517 in cash to the Somerset Regal Charitable Foundation, Inc., a charitable foundation formed in connection with the conversion. Upon the completion of the conversion and offering, 9,507,930 shares of Company common stock were outstanding.

Promptly following the completion of the conversion and related stock offering, Regal Bancorp, Inc., a New Jersey corporation ("Regal Bancorp"), merged with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving entity (the "Merger"). Immediately following the Merger, Regal Bank, a New Jersey chartered commercial bank headquartered in Livingston, New Jersey and the wholly-owned subsidiary of Regal Bancorp, merged with and into Somerset Bank, which had converted to a commercial bank charter, and was renamed Somerset Regal Bank (the "Bank"). In connection with the Merger, each outstanding share of Regal Bancorp common stock converted into the right to receive $23.00 in cash. The Merger was completed on September 19, 2023.

**Business** 

The Company, a Maryland corporation, is the holding company for Somerset Regal Bank. The Bank, which was formed in 1887, serves Essex, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Morris, Somerset and Union counties in New Jersey. The Bank is a New Jersey chartered commercial bank subject to federal and state laws and regulations. As a locally managed community bank, the Bank provides retail and commercial banking services to individuals, businesses and local municipalities through its 14 full-service branch locations.

**Principles of Consolidation** 

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of SR Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary the Bank, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Somerset Investment Co. (the "Investment Co."), RB Properties, LLC and Somerset Consumer Service Corp. ("SCS"). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Investment Co. is a special purpose entity subject to the investment company provisions of the New Jersey Corporation Business Tax Act whose activities are limited to holding investment securities and recognizing income and other gains/losses thereon. RB Properties, LLC was formed to own and manage real estate property acquired through foreclosure or in lieu of foreclosure in connection with loans. RB Properties, LLC is currently inactive. SCS has had limited activity.

**Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates** 

The financial information contained in this Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 is for the Company and the Bank, unless indicated otherwise. However, due to the timing of the Merger, the statement of income (loss) and related disclosures only includes operations of Regal Bancorp and Regal Bank since September 19, 2023.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated statement of financial condition and revenues and expenses for the periods then

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — Continued

ended. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates. Prior period amounts have been reclassified when necessary to conform to the current year's presentation. Such reclassifications did not have a material impact on the operating results or financial position of the Company.

Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to change are: the allowance for credit losses; the evaluation of goodwill for impairment; and income taxes. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are deemed necessary. While management uses its best judgment, actual results could differ from those estimates.

**Segment Reporting**

Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 280, Segment Reporting, establishes standards for the way business enterprises report information about operating segments in annual consolidated financial statements. The Company operates exclusively as a community banker within the "Community Banking" financial services industry. Community Banking encompasses the Company's primary business, which includes providing a wide range of commercial, retail and related banking services. The Company's primary focus within Community Banking is to grow loans using deposits generated by the Company's branches. Our business is generated principally in central and northern New Jersey.

The Company's CEO is the chief operating decision maker who uses consolidated net income to assess performance and profitability of our single business segment. Consolidated net income is used to assess performance by comparing results on a monthly basis, including variances to budget and prior period results. Consideration is given to performance of components of the business, such as branches and geographic regions, which are then aggregated. This information is used to achieve strategic initiatives by allowing the chief operation decision maker to manage resources that drive our business and earnings. Additionally, consolidated net income is used to benchmark the Company against its banking peers.

**Concentrations of Credit Risk** 

The Company's lending activity is concentrated in loans secured by real estate located primarily in New Jersey. Credit risk exposure in this area of lending is mitigated by adhering to conservative underwriting practices and policies, and close monitoring of the loan portfolio. The Company does not have any significant concentrations to any one industry or customer.

Note 4 discuss the types of investment securities in which the Company invests. Credit risk as it relates to investment activities is mitigated through the monitoring of ratings and the purchase of government-sponsored agency securities, backed by the full faith and credit of the United States.

**Cash and Cash Equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, amounts due from banks and interest-earning deposits in other banks with original maturities of three months or less. The Company maintains accounts at other financial institutions with balances in excess of federal deposit insurance limits. The Company has not experienced any loss in such accounts.

**Adoption of Accounting Standards Codification Topic 326: Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("ASC 326")**

On July 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASC 326 ("CECL"), which requires the earlier recognition of credit losses on loans and other financial instruments based on an expected loss model, replacing the incurred loss model that was in use through June 30, 2023. Under this guidance, an entity measures all expected credit losses for financial instruments held at the reporting date based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable and supportable economic forecasts. The CECL model applies to loans and leases, unfunded lending commitments,

June 30, 2025 and 2024

held-to-maturity debt securities and other debt instruments measured at amortized cost. The Company recorded the effect of implementing CECL using a modified-retrospective approach through a cumulative effect adjustment through retained earnings as of July 1, 2023, the beginning of the reporting period in which CECL became effective. The adoption of the new standard resulted in an increase to the allowance for credit losses on loans of $34,000, net of tax. No allowances were recorded for investment securities or unfunded lending commitments at adoption, as the estimates of those losses were de minimus.

**Securities** 

Investments in debt securities that the Company has the positive intent and ability to hold to maturity are classified as held-to-maturity securities and reported at amortized cost. Debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally to sell in the near term are classified as trading securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized holding gains and losses included in earnings.

Debt and equity securities not classified as trading securities or as held-to-maturity securities are classified as available-for-sale securities and reported at fair value, with unrealized holding gains or losses, net of deferred income taxes, reported in the accumulated other comprehensive income/loss component of stockholders' equity.

Premiums/discounts on all securities are amortized/accreted to maturity by use of the level yield method. Gain or loss on sales of securities is based on the specific identification method.

Sales or dispositions of securities whose fair value exceed amortized cost are recognized in earnings. On a quarterly basis, the Company assesses investments with unrealized losses in its available-for-sale and held-to-maturity portfolios regarding its ability and intent to hold those investments until fair value equals or exceeds amortized cost.

Equity securities with readily determinable fair values are measured at fair value. Any realized or unrealized gains or losses are recognized in earnings. Dividends are included in interest income.

In compliance with ASC 326, the Company conducted a review of its investment portfolio to determine the appropriate level of credit losses to reserve. The Company did not record an allowance for credit losses ("ACL") on its available-for-sale ("AFS") securities during the years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024 or upon implementation of CECL on July 1, 2023. As of and for both periods, the Company considered the unrealized losses on the AFS securities to be related to fluctuations in market conditions, primarily interest rates, and not reflective of deterioration in credit. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had no AFS securities. As of June 30, 2024, the Company's AFS securities consisted primarily of highly-rated government sponsored agency ("GSE") residential mortgage-backed securities. The unrealized losses were higher due to market uncertainty resulting from inflation and rising interest rates from the time of the security purchase.

The Company's held-to-maturity ("HTM") portfolio consists principally of highly-rated GSE residential mortgage-backed securities. The Company segments its HTM securities into GSE, residential mortgage-backed securities, collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMOs"), and other debt securities to determine the ACL. The ACL is determined based on the security's historical losses and the ratings of major investment securities rating services, adjusted for certain qualitative factors. The Company has determined that for GSE residential mortgage-backed securities, it would be appropriate to assume the expected credit loss to be zero. At both June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no HTM securities that were past due 30 days or more as to principal or interest payments. Based on its review of HTM securities, the Company deemed no ACL reserve was necessary for the years ended June 30, 2025 or 2024.

**Loans Receivable** 

Loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity or payoff are stated at their outstanding unpaid principal balances, net of an allowance for credit losses and any deferred fees and costs. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance and credited to income. Loan origination fees

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — Continued

June 30, 2025 and 2024

and costs are deferred and recognized over the life of the loans as an adjustment to yield (interest income). Discounts and premiums on purchased loans are amortized to income using the interest method over the expected lives of the loans.

Following the completion of the Merger, the loans receivable portfolio was segmented as follows: multi-family real estate loans, owner occupied commercial real estate loans, other commercial real estate loans, commercial and industrial loans, residential mortgage loans and consumer loans.

The accrual of interest is generally discontinued when the contractual payment of principal or interest has become 90 days past due or management has serious doubts about further collectability of principal or interest, even when the loan is currently performing. A loan may remain on accrual status if it is in the process of collection and is either guaranteed or well secured. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, unpaid interest credited to income in the current year is reversed and unpaid interest accrued in prior years is charged against the allowance for credit losses. Interest received on nonaccrual loans generally is either applied against principal or reported as interest income, according to management's judgment as to the collectability of principal. Generally, loans are restored to accrual status when the obligation is brought current, has performed in accordance with the contractual terms for a reasonable period of time (generally six months) and the ultimate collectability of the total contractual principal and interest is no longer in doubt. The past due status of all classes of loans receivable is determined based on contractual due dates for loan payments.

**Allowance for Credit Losses** 

The ACL is a significant accounting estimate used in the preparation of the Company's consolidated financial statements. Upon adoption of ASC 326 on July 1, 2023, the Company replaced the incurred loss impairment model with a requirement to recognize lifetime expected credit losses on loans and other financial instruments immediately when a financial asset is originated or purchased. The ACL is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of loans to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. Loans, or portions thereof, are charged off against the allowance when they are deemed uncollectible. The allowance is comprised of reserves measured on a collective (pool) basis based on a lifetime loss-rate model when similar risk characteristics exist. Loans that do not share risk characteristics are evaluated on an individual basis. Arriving at an appropriate level of ACL involves a high degree of judgment. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, changing economic conditions and the economic prospects of the borrowers may necessitate future additions or reductions to the allowance.

The Company estimates expected credit losses using a combination of the cohort method and weighted average remaining maturities method. The loan portfolio is segmented into pools of loans by similar attributes and risk characteristics, as of a particular point in time, to which expected losses are calculated over their remaining lives, or until sufficiently attrited (i.e., have reached an acceptable stage at which a significant majority of all losses are expected to have been recognized). Each model factors historical loss rates into quantitative adjustments, to which management applies qualitative adjustments. The various risks that may be considered in making qualitative factor adjustments include, among other things: the impact of changes in lending policies and procedures, including: changes in underwriting standards and practices for collections, write-offs, and recoveries; actual and expected changes in national, regional, and local economic and business conditions and developments that affect the collectability of the loan pools; changes in the composition and size of the loan portfolio and in the terms of the underlying loans; changes in the experience, ability, and depth of our lending management and staff; changes in amount and severity of past due and nonaccrual assets; changes to the quality of our internal loan review system; the existence, growth, and effect of any concentrations of credit; and regulatory, legal and environmental events.

The ACL is increased by the provision for credit losses, and decreased by charge-offs, net of recoveries. Loans deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the ACL, and subsequent recoveries, if any, are credited to the allowance. All, or part, of the principal balance of loans receivable are charged off against the allowance as soon as it is determined that the repayment of all, or part, of the principal balance is highly unlikely. Because all identified losses are immediately charged off, no portion of the allowance for credit losses is restricted to any individual loan or groups of loans, and the entire allowance is available to absorb any and all credit losses.

June 30, 2025 and 2024

Mortgage loans are secured by the borrower's residential or non-residential real estate in a first lien position. Mortgage loans have varying loan rates depending on the financial condition of the borrower and the loan to value ratio. Commercial real estate loans consist of multi-family real estate, owner-occupied, mixed use and other commercial real estate, as well as other commercial loans. Commercial and industrial loans are extended to businesses as either unsecured or secured by various types of collateral, such as accounts receivable, inventory, equipment and/or real estate. Consumer loans are primarily home equity loans and are generally secured by the borrower's personal residence in a second lien position.

From time to time, we may modify certain loans to borrowers who are experiencing financial difficulty. In some cases, these modifications may result in new loans. Loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty may be in the form of principal forgiveness, an interest rate reduction, an other-than-insignificant payment delay, a term extension, or a combination thereof, among other things.

Our policies, consistent with regulatory guidelines, provide for the classification of loans and other assets that are considered to be of lesser quality as substandard, doubtful, or loss assets. An asset is considered substandard if it is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Substandard assets include those assets characterized by the distinct possibility that we will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Assets classified as doubtful have all of the weaknesses inherent in those classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses present make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions and values, highly questionable and improbable. Assets (or portions of assets) classified as loss are those considered uncollectible and are charged to the ACL as their continuance as assets is not warranted. Assets that do not expose us to risk sufficient to warrant classification in one of the aforementioned categories, but which possess potential weaknesses that deserve closer attention, are designated as special mention. As of June 30, 2025, we had no assets designated as loss, doubtful, substandard or special mention.

Prior to the adoption of ASC 326 on July 1, 2023, a loan was individually evaluated when the loan was considered impaired. A loan was considered individually impaired when, based on current information and events, it was probable that the Bank would be unable to collect the scheduled payments of principal or interest when due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Factors considered by management in determining whether a loan was individually impaired included payment status, collateral value and the probability of collecting scheduled principal and interest payments when due. Loans that experienced insignificant payment delays and payment shortfalls generally were not classified as individually impaired. Management determined the significance of payment delays and payment shortfalls on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration all of the circumstances surrounding the loan and the borrower, including the length of the delay, the reasons for the delay, the borrower's prior payment record and the amount of the shortfall in relation to the principal and interest owed. Impairment was measured on a loan by loan basis by either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral if the loan was collateral dependent.

With the adoption of ASC 326, loans that do not share risk characteristics with existing pools are evaluated on an individual basis, such as collateral dependent loans. The Company considers a loan to be collateral dependent when management has determined that foreclosure of the collateral is probable, or where the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment of the financial asset is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral. When repayment is expected to be from the operation of the collateral, the specific credit loss reserve is calculated as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the financial asset exceeds the net present value from the operation of the collateral. When repayment is expected to be from the sale of the collateral, the specific credit loss reserve is calculated as the amount by which the amortized cost basis of the financial asset exceeds the fair value of the underlying collateral less estimated cost to sell. The allowance may be zero if the fair value of the collateral at the measurement date exceeds the amortized cost basis of the financial asset.

In addition, federal and state regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company's allowance for credit losses and may require the Company to recognize adjustments to the allowance based on their judgments about information available to them at the time of their examination, which may

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — Continued

June 30, 2025 and 2024

not be currently available to management. Based on management's comprehensive analysis of the loan portfolio, management believes the current level of the allowance for credit losses is adequate.

Upon adoption of ASC 326 on July 1, 2023, the Company made the following elections regarding accrued interest receivable: (i) present accrued interest receivable balances separately on the consolidated statements of financial condition; (ii) exclude accrued interest from the measurement of the ACL, including investments and loans; and (iii) continue to write-off accrued interest receivable by reversing interest income when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. The Company's policy is to write-off accrued interest when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Historically, the Company has not experienced uncollectible accrued interest receivable on investment debt securities.

The exposure for unfunded commitments is a component of other liabilities on the Company's consolidated statement of financial condition and represents the estimate for current expected credit losses inherent in unfunded commitments to extend credit. Unfunded commitments to extend credit include unused portions of lines of credit, unfunded loan commitments, availability on construction and land development loans and standby and commercial letters of credit. The process used to determine the ACL for these exposures is consistent with the process for determining the ACL for loans, as adjusted for estimated funding probabilities or loan equivalency factors. A charge (credit) to the provision for unfunded commitments on the consolidated statements of income is made to account for the change in the ACL on unfunded commitment exposures between reporting periods.

**Premises and Equipment, net** 

Bank premises and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred, while significant expenditures for improvements are capitalized. Gains or losses upon disposition are reflected in earnings as realized. Bank premises and equipment are reviewed by management for potential impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable.

**Leases** 

The lease liability for operating leases is measured and recognized as the present value of all future lease payment obligations. The right-of-use asset for operating leases is measured as the amount of the lease liability, plus any unamortized initial direct costs, plus (minus) any prepaid (accrued) lease payments, less the unamortized balance of lease incentives received, and any impairment recognized.

The discount rate used to compute the lease liability is the implicit rate in the lease contract, if readily determinable, or the Company's incremental borrowing rate. The implicit rates of the Company's operating leases are not readily determinable, therefore the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate at the commencement date of each lease. The Company's incremental borrowing rate for a lease is the rate of interest it would have to pay on a collateralized basis to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments under similar terms and in a similar economic environment.

For all underlying classes of assets, the Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for leases that have a term of 12 months or less at lease commencement. Leases containing termination clauses in which either party may terminate the lease without cause and the notice period is less than 12 months are also deemed short-term leases. The Company recognizes short-term lease costs on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Leases acquired in a business combination are evaluated as of the acquisition date to determine if the terms of the acquired leases are more or less favorable than the market terms of similar agreements on the acquisition date. If the lease terms are favorable as compared to the market, the Company records an asset. If the lease terms are unfavorable as compared to the market, the Company records a liability. The Company acquired $3.4 million of operating leases in the acquisition of Regal Bancorp.

**Restricted Equity Securities** 

Restricted stock, which represents a required investment in the capital stock of correspondent banks related to available credit facilities, are carried at cost. As of those dates, restricted stock may include investments in the capital stock of the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") of New York, Atlantic Community Bankers Bank ("ACBB") and Bankers Compliance Group ("BCG").

Federal law requires a member institution of the FHLB system to hold stock of its district bank according to a predetermined formula. At June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Bank held $2.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively, in stock of the FHLB of New York. At June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company held $120,000 in stock of ACBB and BCG combined.

Management evaluates the stock for impairment in accordance with guidance on accounting by certain entities that lend or finance the activities of others. Management's determination of whether these investments are impaired is based on its assessment of the ultimate recoverability of their cost rather than by recognizing temporary declines in value. The determination of whether a decline affects the ultimate recoverability of their cost is influenced by criteria such as: (1) the significance of the decline in net assets of the FHLB as compared to the capital stock amount for the FHLB and the length of time this situation has persisted; (2) commitments by the FHLB to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to the operating performance of the FHLB; and (3) the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on institutions and, accordingly, on the customer base of the FHLB.

Management believes no impairment charge was necessary related to the FHLB, ACBB or BCG stock as of June 30, 2025 or June 30, 2024.

**Bank Owned Life Insurance** 

The Company invests in bank owned life insurance as a source of funding for employee benefit expenses. Bank owned life insurance involves the purchasing of life insurance by the Company on a chosen group of employees. The Company is the owner and beneficiary of the policies. This investment is carried as an asset in the consolidated statement of financial condition at the cash surrender value of the underlying policies. Increases in the cash surrender value of the policies, as well as proceeds, are recorded as income in the consolidated statement of income (loss). At June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a $3.0 million receivable for life insurance proceeds resulting from the death of a former employee, of which $1.5 million was recorded as noninterest income in the consolidated statement of income (loss).

**Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets**

The Company recorded goodwill through the acquisition of Regal Bancorp that it tests for impairment at least annually and more frequently as conditions warrant. As of June 30, 2025, goodwill amounted to $20.4 million. The Company evaluated and concluded that goodwill was not impaired as of that date.

The Company recorded a core deposit premium intangible through the acquisition of Regal Bancorp that is amortized on an accelerated basis over ten years. At June 30, 2025, the core deposit premium intangible asset had a gross carrying amount of $9.1 million and accumulated amortization of $2.8 million.

**Revenue Recognition** 

The Company earns income from various sources, including loans, investment securities, BOLI, deposit accounts, and sales of assets. The revenue is recognized as it is earned and when collectability is reasonably assured.

Interest income on loans is accrued on the unpaid principal balance and recorded daily. Loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized as an adjustment to the related loan yield using the interest method. Other loan fees, including late charges, are recognized as the transactions occur.

**SR Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries**

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — Continued

June 30, 2025 and 2024

Interest income on debt securities, including purchase premiums and discounts, is also accrued using the interest method over the term of the securities. Income from dividends on equity securities are recorded when declared.

Noninterest income is accounted for under ASC 606, *Revenue from Contracts with Customers*, and is discussed in greater detail below. Fees and service charges related to deposit accounts are largely based on contracts with customers that are short-term in nature and where the performance obligations are satisfied as services are rendered. Fees are either fixed at a specific amount or assessed as a percentage of the transaction amount. No judgments or estimates are required by management to determine the amount and timing of the related revenue. Descriptions of the primary revenue contracts included as components of noninterest income are as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Monthly service charges - general service fees for monthly account maintenance. These fees are charged as earned within the monthly statement period that the transactions occurred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•Account fees and charges - activity or transaction-based fees for deposit-related services including, but not limited to, account overdraft fees, wire transfer fees and stop payment fees. Fees are received at the time of transaction execution concurrent with the fulfillment of performance obligations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•ATM debit card fees - include interchange fees from debit cardholder transactions or ATM surcharges for non-customer usage of Somerset Regal Bank ATMs. These fees are recognized as earned at the time of the transaction occurrence.

Other income items are transactional in nature and are recorded as they occur.

Gains or losses on sales of assets are recorded in accordance with ASC 860, "Transfers and Servicing," and are generally recognized when the asset has been legally transferred to the buyer and the Company has no continuing involvement with the asset. The Company does not generally finance the sale of foreclosed assets.

**Comprehensive Income (Loss)**

U.S. GAAP requires comprehensive income (loss) and its components to be reported when a company presents a full set of financial statements. The term comprehensive income (loss) refers to net income (loss) plus other comprehensive income, that is, certain revenues, expenses, gains, and losses that are reported as separate components of equity instead of net income. For the Company, the primary component of other comprehensive income (loss) is the unrealized holding gains or losses on available-for-sale investment securities. The Company has elected to report these effects on the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

**Advertising Costs**

Advertising costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred and recorded as non-interest expense in the consolidated statements of income (loss). Advertising expense was approximately $385,000 and $301,000 for years ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

**Income Taxes** 

SR Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return. Income taxes are allocated to SR Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries based on their respective income or loss included in the consolidated income tax return. Separate state income tax returns are filed by SR Bancorp, Inc. and its subsidiaries.

Federal and state income taxes have been provided on the basis of reported income. The amounts reflected on SR Bancorp, Inc. and subsidiaries' tax returns differ from these provisions due principally to temporary differences in the reporting of certain items for financial reporting and income tax reporting purposes.

The Company accounts for income taxes using the asset and liability method in accordance with accounting guidance ASC Topic 740, *Income Taxes*. Under this guidance, deferred income tax expense or benefit is determined

------

**SR Bancorp, Inc. and Subsidiaries**

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — Continued

June 30, 2025 and 2024

by recognizing deferred tax assets and liabilities for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax basis. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in earnings in the period that includes the enactment date. The realization of deferred tax assets is assessed and a valuation allowance provided, when necessary, for that portion of the asset that is not likely to be realized. Management believes, based upon current facts, that it is more likely than not that there will be sufficient taxable income in future years to realize the deferred tax assets.

The Company accounts for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting guidance which prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, and also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. As a result of the Company's evaluation, no significant income tax uncertainties were identified. Therefore, the Company recognized no adjustment for unrecognized tax benefits for the years ended June 30, 2025 or June 30, 2024.

The Company's policy is to recognize interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense in the consolidated statements of income. No interest and penalties were recorded during year ended June 30, 2025 or 2024.

**Retirement Benefits** 

The Bank has a funded noncontributory defined benefit pension plan that covered substantially all employees meeting certain eligibility requirements as of April 30, 2023. The cost of the pension plan is based on actuarial computations of current and future benefits for employees. The Bank froze the pension plan with respect to participation and benefit accounts effective as of April 30, 2023.

The Bank follows the accounting guidance applicable to a defined benefit pension plan that requires an employer to: (a) recognize in its statement of financial condition an asset for a plan's overfunded status or a liability for a plan's underfunded status; (b) measure a plan's assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as of the end of the employer's fiscal year (with limited exceptions); and (c) recognize changes in the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan in the year in which the changes occur.

The Bank also maintains a 401(k) Plan. Eligible employees who are at least 21 years old become participants in the 401(k) Plan after they have been employed for six consecutive months. Under the 401(k) Plan, a participant may elect to defer, on a pre-tax basis, between 2% and 100% of their eligible compensation. In addition to salary deferral contributions, the Bank makes contributions equal to 3% of the participant's plan compensation. A participant is immediately 100% vested in his or her salary deferral contributions and employer contributions.

**Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "ESOP")**

As part of the conversion and stock offering, the Bank established the Somerset Regal Bank Employee Stock Ownership Plan to provide eligible employees of the Bank the opportunity to own Company stock. The ESOP is a tax-qualified retirement plan for the benefit of Bank employees. The ESOP was funded through the purchase of 760,634 shares through a loan from the Company. The cost of shares issued to the ESOP, but not yet allocated to participants, is shown as a reduction of stockholders' equity. The Company records compensation expense for the ESOP equal to fair market value of shares when they are committed to be released from the suspense account to participants' accounts under the plan.

**Accounting Pronouncements Adopted** 

The Company adopted ASC 326 on July 1, 2023. The transition to the new Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") resulted in a cumulative effect adjustment to the allowance for credit losses of $47,000, an increase in

June 30, 2025 and 2024

deferred tax assets of $13,000, and a decrease in retained earnings of $34,000 as of the adoption date. The impact of the reserve for unfunded liabilities to the consolidated financial statements was not material. The Company did not record an allowance for held-to-maturity securities on July 1, 2023 as the investment portfolio consisted almost entirely of debt securities backed by the full faith of the U.S. Government for which credit risk is deemed negligible. The impact of this ASU could change in the future depending on the composition, characteristics, and credit quality of the securities portfolio as well as the economic conditions at future reporting periods

The following table below presents the impact of ASC 326 on the consolidated balance sheet:

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-02, *Financial Instruments—Credit Losses—Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures*. This standard eliminated the recognition and measurement guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors and enhances disclosure requirements for certain loan restructurings when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. For public business entities, these amendments require that an entity disclose current-period gross charge-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investment in leases within the scope of Subtopic 326-20. Gross charge-off information must be included in the vintage disclosures required for public business entities in accordance with paragraph 326-20-50-6, which requires that an entity disclose the amortized cost basis of financing receivables by credit quality indicator and class of financing receivable by year of origination. ASU No. 2022-02 was effective for the Company on July 1, 2023. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements as the Company.

In March 2023, FASB issued ASU No. 2023-02, *Investments - Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures*. The amendments in this update permit reporting entities to elect to account for their tax equity investments, regardless of the tax credit program from which the income tax credits are received, using the proportional amortization method if certain conditions are met. A reporting entity may make an accounting policy election to apply the proportional amortization method on a tax-credit-program-by-tax-credit-program basis rather than electing to apply the proportional amortization method at the reporting entity level or to individual investments. The amendments in this update also remove certain guidance for Qualified Affordable Housing Project investments and require the application of the delayed equity contribution guidance to all tax equity investments. The Company adopted this standard on July 1, 2024. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements as the Company has no such investments.

In November 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-07, *Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures*. The amendments in this ASU require improved reportable segment information on an annual and interim basis, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. This update will be

effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this standard on July 1, 2024. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

**Recent Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted**

In December 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-09, *Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures*. The amendments in this ASU require improved annual income tax disclosures surrounding rate reconciliation, income taxes paid, and other disclosures. This update will be effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard, which is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update 2024-01, *Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718) - Scope Application of Profits Interest and Similar Awards* ("ASU 2024-01") clarifies how an entity determines whether a profits interest or similar award is within the scope of Topic 718 or is not a share-based payment arrangement and therefore within the scope of other guidance. ASU 2024-01 provides an illustrative example with multiple fact patterns and also amends certain language in the "Scope" and "Scope Exceptions" sections of Topic 718 to improve its clarity and operability without changing the guidance. Entities can apply the amendments either retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements or prospectively to profits interest and similar awards granted or modified on or after the date of adoption. If prospective application is elected, an entity must disclose the nature of and reason for the change in accounting principle. ASU 2024-01 is effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning on July 1, 2025, including interim periods, and is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update 2024-02, *Codification Improvements* ("ASU 2024-02") amends the Codification to remove references to various concept statements and impacts a variety of topics in the Codification. The amendments apply to all reporting entities within the scope of the affected accounting guidance, but in most instances the references removed are extraneous and not required to understand or apply the guidance. Generally, the amendments in ASU 2024-02 are not intended to result in significant accounting changes for most entities. ASU 2024-02 is effective for the Company for the fiscal year beginning on July 1, 2025, and is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update 2024-03, *Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures* ("ASU 2024-03") requires additional expense disclosures by public entities in the notes to the financial statements. ASU 2024-03 outlines the specific costs that are required to be disclosed, which include costs such as: employee compensation, depreciation, intangible asset amortization, selling costs and depreciation. It also requires qualitative descriptions of the amounts remaining in the relevant income statement captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively in the notes to the financial statements and the entity's definition of selling expenses. The disclosures are required for each interim and annual reporting period. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026. In January 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2025-01, "Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures: Clarifying the Effective Date" ("ASU 2025-01"), clarifying the interim reporting date when an entity must adopt ASU 2024-03. According to ASU 2025-01, ASU 2024-03 is effective for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2027. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on our consolidated financial statements, which is not expected to have a material impact on our financial statements

**Subsequent Events**

The Company has evaluated subsequent events for recognition or disclosure through September 29, 2025, the date consolidated financial statements were available to be issued.

**2.** **Business Combination**

On September 19, 2023, the Company completed its acquisition of Regal Bancorp, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Regal Bank, under which Regal Bancorp merged with and into the Company, with the Company as the resulting entity. Immediately following the Merger, Regal Bank merged with and into Somerset Bank, which had converted to a commercial bank charter, with Somerset Bank as the surviving entity, which was renamed Somerset Regal Bank. In connection with the Merger, each outstanding share of Regal Bancorp common stock converted into the right to receive $23.00 in cash.

The assets acquired and liabilities assumed have been accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. The assets and liabilities, both tangible and intangible, were recorded at their fair values as of September 19, 2023 based on management's best estimate using the information available as of the merger date. The application of the acquisition method of accounting resulted in the recognition of goodwill of $20.5 million and a core deposit intangible of $9.1 million. At June 30, 2024, the Company finalized its review of the acquired assets and liabilities making modest adjustments to assets and liabilities reducing previously reported goodwill from $20.5 million to $20.4 million.

The following table sets forth assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition of Regal Bancorp, at their estimated fair values as of the closing date of the transaction:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)Final adjustments of income taxes, other assets and other liabilities.

During the year ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded one-time merger-related expenses of $3.9 million, consisting of $2.6 million for change in control payments, $612,000 for investment banking services, $414,000 related to the termination of a data processing contract, $99,000 for legal-related expenses, $42,000 for severance payments, $17,000 in other professional services and $30,000 in other miscellaneous expenses. In addition, the Company recorded a $5.4 million charitable contribution expense for the establishment of the Somerset Regal Charitable Foundation, as well as a $4.2 million provision for estimated credit losses in connection with the acquired loan portfolio.

The Company had no merger-related expenses incurred during the year ended June 30, 2025.

The fair value of loans acquired from Regal Bank was estimated using cash flow projections based on the remaining maturity and repricing terms. Cash flows were adjusted by estimating future credit losses and the rate of prepayments. Projected monthly cash flows were then discounted to present value using a risk-adjusted market rate for similar loans. There was no carryover of Regal Bank's allowance for loan losses associated with the loans that were acquired. The core deposit intangible asset recognized is being amortized over its estimated useful life of approximately 10 years utilizing the sum-of-the-years digits method. The acquisition was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, the Company recognizes amounts for identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed at their estimated acquisition date fair value. At June 30, 2024, the Company finalized its review of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities and did not record any further adjustments to the carrying value.

The fair value of retail demand and interest-bearing deposit accounts was assumed to approximate the carrying value as these accounts have no stated maturity and are payable on demand. The fair value of time deposits was estimated by discounting the contractual future cash flows using market rates offered for time deposits of similar remaining maturities.

**3.** **Earnings (Loss) Per Share**

Basic earnings (loss) per share represents income available to common stockholders divided by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share have been calculated in a manner similar to that of basic earnings per share except that weighted-average number of common shares outstanding is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if all potential dilutive common shares (such as those resulting from the exercise of stock options and vested restricted stock awards) were issued during the period, computed using the treasury stock method. Unallocated ESOP shares are not deemed outstanding for earnings per share calculations.

On a quarterly basis, management evaluates whether there is a credit loss associated with any declines in fair value on securities. Management considers the nature of the collateral, default rates, delinquency rates, credit ratings and interest rate changes, among other factors. However, the Company has determined that highly-rated issues of mortgage-backed securities of government-sponsored agencies have a zero expected credit loss.

At June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, mortgage-backed securities with a carrying value of approximately $1.7 million and $1.8 million, respectively, were pledged as collateral to secure public funds on deposit.

The Company engages primarily in the lending of fixed-rate and adjustable-rate commercial real estate and residential mortgage loans. Lending activities are targeted to individuals within the Company's geographic footprint. Risks associated with lending activities include economic conditions and changes in interest rates, which can adversely impact both the ability of borrowers to repay their loans and the value of the associated collateral. Credit risk exposure in these areas of lending are minimized by the evaluation of the creditworthiness of the borrower, including debt-to-income ratios, credit scores and conservative underwriting standards that contain loan-to-value ratios of generally no more than 75% for multi-family and commercial loans and 80% for residential loans. Residential mortgage loans granted in excess of the 80% loan-to-value ratio criterion are generally insured by private mortgage insurance. The real estate home equity portfolio consists of fixed-rate home equity loans and variable-rate home equity lines of credit. Risks associated with second lien loans secured by residential properties are generally lower than commercial loans and include general economic risks, such as the strength of the job market, employment stability and the strength of the housing market.

**ESOP**

The Company maintains the Somerset Regal Bank Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the "ESOP"). Coincident with its conversion on September 19, 2023, the Company loaned the ESOP $7.6 million and the ESOP trust purchased 760,634 shares of the Company's common stock at $10.00 per share. The loan is secured by the shares purchased, which are held until allocated to participants. Shares are released for allocation to participants as loan payments are made. Loan payments are principally funded by discretionary cash contributions by the Bank, as well as dividends, if any, paid to the ESOP on unallocated shares. Shares are allocated to eligible participants at the end of the plan year (December 31) on the basis of compensation, subject to federal limits.

Under applicable accounting requirements, the Company records compensation expense for the ESOP equal to the fair market value of shares when they are earned and committed to be released to participants' accounts under the plan. The principal outstanding of the ESOP loan was $6.9 and $7.0 million at June 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively. Total compensation expense recognized in connection with the ESOP was $438,000 and $515,000 for the years ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

**13.** **Income Taxes** 

Prior to the year ended June 30, 2024, the Bank qualified as a Savings Institution under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code and, therefore, prior to January 1, 1996, was permitted to calculate its bad debt deduction using either the experience method or the specific charge off method. Retained earnings at June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024 included approximately $5.3 million of such bad debt allowance for which federal income taxes have not been provided. After January 1, 1996, the Bank was only permitted to deduct actual charge offs. If such amount is used for purposes other than for bad debt losses, including distributions in liquidation, it will be subject to income tax at the then current rate.

The components of income tax expense are as follows for years ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024:

---

A deferred tax asset or liability is recognized for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences and carryforwards. The measurement of such deferred tax items is reduced by the amount that is more likely than not to be realized based on available evidence. The ultimate realization of the deferred tax asset is

------

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements — Continued

June 30, 2025 and 2024

dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences and carryforwards become deductible. At June 30, 2025 and 2024, there was a valuation allowance of $2.2 million.

A corporation may carry forward net operating losses to the succeeding 20 taxable years for New Jersey state tax purposes. As of June 30, 2025, the Bank had total state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $7.5 million that expire beginning in tax year 2044.

Management assesses the available evidence to estimate whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to realize the existing deferred tax asset. Such objective evidence limits the ability to consider other subjective evidence, such as our projections for future growth.

On the basis of this evaluation, a valuation allowance of $2.2 million was established for the year ended June 30, 2025 attributable to the Company's five-year charitable contribution and capital loss carryforwards. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered realizable could be adjusted if estimates of future taxable income increased or if objective evidence in the form of cumulative losses is no longer present and additional weight is given to subjective evidence such as our projections for growth. Net deferred tax assets are included in other assets on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. At June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, the Company had a $2.2 million valuation allowance.

**14.** **Commitments and Contingencies** 

The Company is a party to financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition.

The Company's exposure to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other party to the financial instrument for commitments to extend credit is represented by the contractual notional amount of those instruments. The Company uses the same credit policies in making commitments and conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments.

At June 30, 2025, total unfunded loan-related commitments, including lines of credit, amounted to $79.0 million, comprised of $38.0 million for unused equity lines of credit and $41.0 million to originate and purchase loans, expiring within three months.

At June 30, 2024, total unfunded loan-related commitments, including lines of credit, amounted to $72.1 million, comprised of $36.1 million for unused equity lines of credit and $36.0 million to originate and purchase loans, expiring within three months.

Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The Company evaluates each customer's creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained if deemed necessary by the Company upon extension of credit is based on management's credit evaluation of the counterparty.

A reserve for unfunded commitments is recognized and included in other liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial condition. Periodic adjustments to either increase or decrease the reserve are recognized in non-interest expense in the consolidated statements of income, however the Company recorded no expense for the years ended June 30, 2025 or June 30, 2024. The balance for unfunded commitments was $0 at both June 30, 2025 and 2024.

**15.** **Regulatory Capital** 

The Bank is subject to regulatory capital requirements administered by federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the consolidated financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of its assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk-weightings and other factors.

Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the maintenance of minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total capital, Tier 1 capital (as defined in the regulations) and common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets, and of Tier 1 capital to average assets. A capital conservation buffer of 2.50%, comprised of common equity Tier I capital, is also established above the regulatory minimum capital requirements and must be maintained to avoid limitations on capital distributions.

In 2021, the Bank adopted the new community bank leverage ratio framework. This framework simplifies the regulatory capital requirements by requiring the Bank to meet only the Tier 1 capital to average assets (leverage) ratio. The Bank must only maintain a leverage ratio greater than the 9% required minimum to be considered well capitalized under this framework. The Bank can opt out of the new framework and return to the risk-weighting framework at any time.

Market risk, credit risk, operational risk and deposits are some of the factors that can impact the capital adequacy ratio and in turn, adversely affect the performance of the Bank. As of June 30, 2025, management believes that the Bank met all capital adequacy requirements to which it was subject. As of June 30, 2025, the most recent notification from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation categorized the Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized, an institution must maintain minimum ratios as set forth in the following tables. There are no conditions or events since that notification that management believes have changed the Bank's category. The Bank's actual capital amounts and ratios are as follows:

---

| <u>June 30, 2024:</u> |  |  |  |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Tier 1 capital (to average total assets) | $170364 | 16.83% | $91122 | 9.00% |

**16.** **Related-Party Transactions** 

In the ordinary course of business, the Bank has engaged, and continues to engage, in banking transactions with its directors, officers and their related parties.

At June 30, 2025, the Bank had $267,000 in outstanding loans to directors, officers and their related parties.

Deposits from directors, officers and their related parties held by the Bank at June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024 amounted to $14.1 million and $5.4 million, respectively.

The Company leases two branch facilities under agreements with companies directly or indirectly affiliated with a director, as a result of the Merger. Lease expense recognized in connection with these leases since the Merger amounted to $236,000 for the year ended June 30, 2025.

**17.** **Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures** 

The Bank uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to determine fair value disclosures. The Company's securities available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Additionally, from time to time, the Bank may be required to record at fair value other assets or liabilities on a non-recurring basis. These non-recurring fair value adjustments involve the application of lower-of-cost-or-market accounting or write-downs of individual assets.

FASB ASC 820, *Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures*, defines fair value as an exit price representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or settle a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. A three-level hierarchy has been established for fair value measurements based upon the inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability.

Level 1 - Valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 - Valuation is determined from quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument;

Level 3 - Valuation is derived from model-based and other techniques in which at least one significant input is unobservable and which may be based on the Company's own estimates about the assumptions that a market participant would use to value the asset or liability.

The Banks' available-for-sale portfolio is carried at estimated fair value on a recurring basis, with any unrealized gains and losses, net of taxes, reported as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss. The securities available-for-sale portfolio consists of U.S. government-sponsored enterprise and mortgage-backed securities. The fair values of these securities were obtained from an independent nationally recognized pricing service. The independent pricing service provided prices categorized as Level 2, as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets are generally not available for the securities.

For financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used are as follows:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **June 30, 2025** | **June 30, 2025** | **June 30, 2025** | **June 30, 2025** |

| Equity securities | 25 |  |  | 25 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total | $25 | $— | $— | $25 |

---

The classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Other securities are measured at fair value using quoted market prices in an active market for identical assets and are classified as Level 1 in the hierarchy. The estimated fair values of equity securities are determined by obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized exchanges (Level 1 inputs).

All debt securities are measured at fair value using matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities' relationship to other benchmark quoted prices and are classified as Level 2 in the hierarchy.

The fair value of deposits with no defined maturities (e.g. demand deposits, interest-bearing demand accounts, money market accounts and savings accounts) is the amount payable on demand of the liabilities at the reporting date (i.e. their carrying amounts). This approach to estimating fair value excludes the significant benefit that results from the low-cost funding provided by such deposit liabilities, as compared to alternative sources of funding.

Deposits with stated maturities (time deposits) have been valued using the present value of cash flows discounted at rates approximating the current market for similar deposits.

**Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis**

The following tables present those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis at June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, and additional quantitative information about the valuation techniques and inputs utilized to determine fair value. All such assets and liabilities were measured using Level 3 inputs:

Loans which meet certain criteria are evaluated individually for impairment. A loan is impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Bank will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. The Bank's impaired loans are generally collateral dependent whose fair value is estimated through current appraisals, and adjusted as necessary by management to reflect current market conditions. Appraisals of collateral securing impaired loans are conducted by approved, qualified, and independent third-party appraisers. Such appraisals are ordered once the loan is deemed impaired, as previously described. Impaired loans are generally classified as Level 3 assets. There were no transfers between levels within the fair value hierarchy during the years ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024.

***Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis***

The Company discloses fair value information about financial assets, whether or not recognized in the statements of financial condition, for which it is practicable to estimate that value. The fair value of financial assets that are not measured at fair value in the financial statements were based on the exit price notion. The following estimated fair value amounts have been determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, the estimates below are not necessarily indicative of amounts that could be realized in the marketplace. The use of different market assumptions or valuation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

For financial assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used at June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024 were as follows:

## Exhibit 97.0

**Exhibit 97.0**

**<u>SR BANCORP, INC.</u>**

**<u>CLAWBACK POLICY</u>**

The Board of Directors (the "Board") of SR Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") believes that it is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders to adopt this Clawback Policy (this "Policy"), which provides for the recovery of Erroneously Awarded Compensation in the event the Company is required to prepare an Accounting Restatement.

The Company has adopted this Policy as a supplement to any other clawback policies or provisions in effect now or in the future at the Company. To the extent this Policy applies to compensation payable to a person covered by this Policy, it shall supersede any other conflicting provision or policy maintained by the Company and shall be the only clawback policy applicable to such compensation and no other clawback policy shall apply; provided that, if such other policy or provision provides that a greater amount of such compensation shall be subject to clawback, such other policy or provision shall apply to the amount in excess of the amount subject to clawback under this Policy.

This Policy shall be interpreted to comply with the clawback rules found in 17 C.F.R. §240.10D-1 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and the related listing rules of the national securities exchange or national securities association (the "Exchange") on which the Company has listed securities, and, to the extent this Policy is in any manner deemed inconsistent with such rules, this Policy shall be treated as retroactively amended to be compliant with such rules.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.<u>Definitions</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a)"Accounting Restatement" means an accounting restatement due to the material noncompliance of the Company with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b)"Accounting Restatement Date" means the earlier to occur of: (i) the date the Board, a committee of the Board, or the officer or officers of the Company authorized to take such action if Board action is not required, concludes, or reasonably should have concluded, that the Company is required to prepare an Accounting Restatement or (ii) the date a court, regulatory agency, or other legally authorized body directs the Company to prepare an Accounting Restatement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c)"Erroneously Awarded Compensation" means, in the event of an Accounting Restatement, the amount of Incentive-Based Compensation previously received that exceeds the amount of Incentive-Based Compensation that otherwise would have been received had it been determined based on the restated amounts in such Accounting Restatement. The amount of Erroneously Awarded Compensation shall be determined on a gross basis without regard to any taxes paid by the relevant Executive Officer; provided, however, that for Incentive-Based Compensation based on the Company's stock price or total shareholder return, where the amount of Erroneously Awarded Compensation is not subject to mathematical recalculation directly from the

------

information in an Accounting Restatement: (i) the amount of Erroneously Awarded Compensation shall be based on a reasonable estimate of the effect of the Accounting Restatement on the stock price or total shareholder return upon which the Incentive-Based Compensation was received and (ii) the Company must maintain documentation of the determination of such reasonable estimate and provide such documentation to the Stock Exchange.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d)"Executive Officer" means the Company's president, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer (or if there is no such accounting officer, the controller), any vice-president of the Company in charge of a principal business unit, division, or function (such as sales, administration, or finance), any other officer who performs a policy-making function, or any other person who performs similar policy-making functions for the Company. An executive officer of the Company's parent or subsidiary is deemed an "Executive Officer" if the executive officer performs policy making functions for the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e)"Financial Reporting Measure" means any measure that is determined and presented in accordance with the accounting principles used in preparing the Company's financial statements, and any measure that is derived wholly or in part from such measure; provided, however, that a Financial Reporting Measure is not required to be presented within the Company's financial statements or included in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission to qualify as a "Financial Reporting Measure." For purposes of this Policy, "Financial Reporting Measure" includes, but is not limited to, stock price and total shareholder return.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f)"Incentive-Based Compensation" means any compensation that is granted, earned, or vested based wholly or in part upon the attainment of a Financial Reporting Measure.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g)"Received" means incentive-based compensation received in the Company's fiscal period during which the financial reporting measure specified in the incentive-based compensation award is attained, even if the payment or grant of the incentive-based compensation occurs after the end of that period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>Application of the Policy.</u> This Policy shall only apply in the event that the Company is required to prepare an Accounting Restatement and it shall apply to all Incentive-Based Compensation Received by a person: (a) after beginning service as an Executive Officer; (b) who served as an Executive Officer at any time during the performance period for such Incentive-Based Compensation; (c) while the Company had a class of securities listed on a national securities exchange or a national securities association; and (d) during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the Accounting Restatement Date. In addition to such last three completed fiscal years, the immediately preceding clause (d) includes any transition period that results from a change in the Company's fiscal year within or immediately following such three completed fiscal years; provided, however, that a transition period between the last day of the Company's previous fiscal year end and the first day of its new fiscal year that comprises a period of nine to twelve months shall be deemed a completed fiscal year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Recovery Period</u>. The Incentive-Based Compensation subject to clawback is the Incentive-Based Compensation Received during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding an Accounting Restatement Date; provided that the individual served as an Executive

------

Officer at any time during the performance period applicable to the Incentive-Based Compensation in question. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Policy shall only apply if the Incentive-Based Compensation is Received (1) while the Company has a class of securities listed on an Exchange, and (2) on or after October 2, 2023.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. <u>Erroneously Awarded Compensation.</u> The amount of Incentive-Based Compensation subject to the Policy ("Erroneously Awarded Compensation") is the amount of Incentive-Based Compensation Received that exceeds the amount of Incentive Based-Compensation that otherwise would have been Received had it been determined based on the restated amounts in the Company's financial statements and shall be computed without regard to any taxes paid. For Incentive-Based Compensation based on stock price or total shareholder return, where the amount of Erroneously Awarded Compensation is not subject to mathematical recalculation directly from the information in an Accounting Restatement: (1) the amount shall be based on a reasonable estimate of the effect of the Accounting Restatement on the stock price or total shareholder return upon which the Incentive-Based Compensation was received; and (2) the Company must maintain documentation of the determination of that reasonable estimate and provide such documentation to the Exchange. The Board shall determine, in its sole discretion, the timing and method for promptly recouping Erroneously Awarded Compensation hereunder, which may include without limitation (a) seeking reimbursement of all or part of any cash or equity-based award, (b) cancelling prior cash or equity-based awards, whether vested or unvested or paid or unpaid, (c) cancelling or offsetting against any planned future cash or equity-based awards, (d) forfeiture of deferred compensation, subject to compliance with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (e) any other method authorized by applicable law or contract. Subject to compliance with any applicable law, the Board may affect recovery under this Policy from any amount otherwise payable to the Executive Officer, including amounts payable to such individual under any otherwise applicable Company plan or program, including base salary, bonuses or commissions and compensation previously deferred by the Executive Officer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. <u>Recovery Exceptions.</u> The Company shall recover reasonably promptly any Erroneously Awarded Compensation except to the extent that the conditions of paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) below apply. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Committee") shall determine the repayment schedule for each amount of Erroneously Awarded Compensation in a manner that complies with this "reasonably promptly" requirement. Such determination shall be consistent with any applicable legal guidance by the Securities and Exchange Commission, judicial opinion, or otherwise. The determination of "reasonably promptly" may vary from case to case and the Committee is authorized to adopt additional rules to further describe what repayment schedules satisfy this requirement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Erroneously Awarded Compensation need not be recovered if the direct expense paid to a third party to assist in enforcing the Policy would exceed the amount to be recovered and the Committee has made a determination that recovery would be impracticable. Before concluding that it would be impracticable to recover any amount of Erroneously Awarded Compensation based on expense of enforcement, the Company shall make a reasonable attempt to recover such Erroneously Awarded Compensation, document such reasonable attempt(s) to recover, and provide that documentation to the Exchange, as required.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If applicable, Erroneously Awarded Compensation need not be recovered if recovery would violate home country law where that law was adopted prior to November 28,

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2022. Before concluding that it would be impracticable to recover any amount of Erroneously Awarded Compensation based on violation of home country law, the Company shall obtain an opinion of home country counsel, acceptable to the Exchange, that recovery would result in such a violation and shall provide such opinion to the Exchange.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Erroneously Awarded Compensation need not be recovered if recovery would likely cause an otherwise tax-qualified retirement plan, under which benefits are broadly available to employees of the Company, to fail to meet the requirements of Section 401(a)(13) or Section 411(a) of the Code and regulations thereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. <u>Committee Decisions.</u> Decisions of the Committee with respect to this Policy shall be final, conclusive and binding on all Executive Officers subject to this Policy, unless determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be an abuse of discretion. Any members of the Committee, and any other members of the Board who assist in the administration of this Policy, shall not be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made with respect to this Policy and shall be fully indemnified by the Company to the fullest extent under applicable law and Company policy with respect to any such action, determination or interpretation. The foregoing sentence shall not limit any other rights to indemnification of the members of the Board under applicable law or Company policy.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. <u>No Indemnification</u>. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other policy of the Company, the governing documents of the Company or any agreement between the Company and an Executive Officer, no Executive Officer shall be indemnified by the Company against the loss of any Erroneously Awarded Compensation. Further, the Company is prohibited from paying or reimbursing an Executive Officer for purchasing insurance to cover any such loss.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. <u>Agreement to Policy by Executive Officers</u>. The Committee shall take reasonable steps to inform Executive Officers of this Policy and the Executive Officers shall acknowledge receipt and adherence to this Policy in writing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. <u>Exhibit Filing Requirement</u>. A copy of this Policy and any amendments thereto shall be filed as an exhibit to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. <u>Amendment</u>. The Board may amend, modify or supplement all or any portion of this Policy at any time and from time to time in its discretion.
