This Investor Presentation does not constitute an offer to sell, nor a solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities by any person in any jurisdiction in which it is unlawful for such a person to make such an offering or solicitation. Neither the SEC nor any other regulatory agency has approved or disapproved of our securities or passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this presentation. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense. Our common stock is not a deposit account of Coastal States Bank, our wholly-owned bank subsidiary and South Carolina bank (our "Bank") and is not insured by the FDIC or any other governmental agency. No money or other consideration is being solicited and if sent in response will not be accepted. We are under no obligation to make an offering. We may choose to make an offering to some, but not all, of the people who indicate an interest in investing. Any such offering of securities will only be made by means of a registration statement (including a prospectus) filed with the SEC, after such registration statement becomes effective.

These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company's business based on the beliefs of and certain assumptions made by the Company's management, many of which assumptions, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond the Company's control.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures In addition to results presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that providing certain non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with information useful in understanding our financial performance, performance trends and financial position. Our management uses these measures for internal planning and forecasting purposes and we believe that our presentation and discussion, together with the accompanying reconciliations, allows investors, security analysts and other interested parties to view our performance and the factors and trends affecting our business in a manner similar to management.

Asset / Liability Risk Management Interest Rate Risk Management Our goal is to structure our asset/liability composition to maximize net interest income while managing interest rate risk so as to minimize the adverse impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income and capital in either a rising or declining interest rate environment The following table presents our interest sensitivity position at the dates indicated: Net Interest Income Sensitivity 12 Month Projection (Shock in basis points) -200 -100 +100 +200 March 31, 2025 December 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 (7.49) % (5.32) % (7.18) % (10.01) % (4.01) % (2.88) % (3.50) % (4.85) % 4.76 % 4.10 % 3.35 % 4.63 % 8.94 % 7.28 % 6.60 % 9.13 % Economic Value of Equity We also compute amounts by which the net present value of our assets and liabilities (economic value of equity or "EVE") would change in the event of a range of assumed changes in market interest rates, with changes in interest rates representing immediate and permanent parallel shifts in the yield curve The following table sets forth the calculation of the estimated changes in our EVE that would result from the designated immediate changes in the yield curve at the dates indicated: Economic Value of Equity Sensitivity (Shock in basis points) -200 -100 +100 +200 March 31, 2025 December 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 (5.62) % (3.51) % (3.49) % (6.60) % (2.39) % (1.13) % (1.06) % (2.29) % 1.05 % (0.19) % (1.03) % 0.34 % (0.33) % (2.22) % (4.33) % (1.84) % Note: Information as of March 31, 2025 35
