#### REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors, Plan Administrator, and Plan Participants

Orange County Bancorp, Inc. 401(K) Plan

#### Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of Orange County Bancorp, Inc. 401(k) Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes to the financial statements (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

#### Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Plan's 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 Plan in accordance with 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. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the 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 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 financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

#### Report on Supplemental Information

The supplemental information in the accompanying schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2024, and the schedule of delinquent participant contributions for the year ended December 31, 2024, have been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of the Plan's financial statements. The supplemental information is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements but includes supplemental information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental information is the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental information reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental information in the accompanying schedules, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. In our opinion, the supplemental information in the accompanying schedules are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

#### 401(K) PLAN

#### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2024 & 2023

#### AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024

#### NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN
The following brief description of the Orange County Bancorp, Inc. 401(k) Plan (the "Plan") is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for more complete information.

*General.*

The Orange Bank & Trust Company (the "Bank"), formerly known as Orange County Bank and Trust Company established the Orange County Trust Company Employee Stock Ownership Plan with Section 401(k) Provisions effective as of January 1, 1993. As of January 1, 2016, the Orange County Trust Company Employee Stock Ownership Plan was amended and restated to provide for the transfer of the sponsorship of the Plan from Orange County Trust Company to Orange County Bancorp, Inc. and that the Plan allow for automatic enrollment for new hires and safe harbor non-elective contribution. It is intended that the Plan be a qualified profit-sharing plan within the meaning of Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), that the requirements of Code Sections 401(k) or 414(v) be satisfied as to that portion of the Plan applicable to Before-Tax Contributions, that the requirements of Code Section 401(m) be satisfied as to that portion of the Plan applicable to Employer Matching Contributions, and that the Trust or other funding vehicle associated with the Plan be exempt from Federal income tax pursuant to the provisions of Code Section 501(a). The Plan is intended to include a stock bonus plan qualified under Code Section 401(a) and a non-leveraged employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) satisfying the requirements of Code Sections 401(a), 409 and 4975e. The ESOP component of the Plan is designed to be invested primarily in employer securities within the meaning of Code Section 4975(e)(8) and such, the primary investment of the ESOP shall be the Orange County Bancorp, Inc. Stock Fund. The Plan is subject to the applicable provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA). The Plan was administered by Pentegra Services, Inc. ("Pentegra") during 2024 and 2023, respectively. During February 2024, the recordkeeping of the Plan was transferred and converted to Empower Retirement, LLC.

*Eligibility.*

Employees of the Bank who have attained the age of 21 are eligible to participate in the Plan after 6 months of service, provided they have at least 500 hours of service. A Participant will be eligible to receive Employer Matching Contributions and Discretionary Employer contributions upon attaining age of 21 and completing year of service, provided they have at least 1,000 hours of service.

*Contributions.*

Each year, participants may contribute up to the annual maximum determined by the Internal Revenue Code, as defined in the Plan. Participants who have attained age 50 before the end of the Plan year are eligible to make catch-up contributions. The Plan allows for Roth Elective Deferrals. Participants may designate all or a portion of their deferrals as Roth Elective Deferrals. Each employee who becomes eligible to participate in the Plan after January 1, 2016 and who has not specifically elected to make salary reduction contributions will be automatically enrolled for salary reduction contributions at a rate of 6% of base pay. Participants may also contribute amounts representing distributions from other qualified defined benefit or contribution plans. Participants direct the investment of their contributions into various investment options offered by the Plan. The Plan currently offers various collective investment funds. The Bank may, in its discretion, make age based contributions to eligible participant accounts. Effective for Plan years beginning after January 1, 2016, to satisfy the requirements of IRC sections 401(k)(12), the Bank will make safe harbor non-elective contributions equal to 3% of eligible participants annual compensation.

#### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2024 & 2023

#### AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024

#### NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN – (CONT'D)
*Participant Accounts*

Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution and allocations of (a) the Bank's contribution and, (b) Plan earnings (losses), and charged with an allocation of any administrative expenses paid by the Plan. Allocations are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participants vested account.

*Vesting*

Participants are immediately vested in their before tax contributions, Roth contributions, rollover contributions, Employer's safe harbor non-election contribution, Employer's discretionary contributions and actual earnings thereon. Vesting in any Employer's matching contribution portion of the participant accounts is based on years of continuous service. A participant is vested 20% a year and is 100% vested after five years of credited service.

*Notes Receivable from Participants*

Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1,000 up to a maximum equal to the lesser of $50,000 or 50% of their account balance. The notes are secured by the balance in the participant's account and bear a reasonable interest rate equal to the prevailing rate charged by lenders for similar loans as determined by the Bank. The interest rates are between 4.25% and 9.50% as of December 31, 2024. Principal and interest are paid ratably through bi-weekly payroll deductions.

*Payment of Benefits*

On termination of service due to death, disability or retirement, a participant may elect to receive either a lump-sum amount equal to the value of the participant's vested interest in his or her account or in monthly, quarterly, semiannual or annual installments; provided, however that such period shall not extend beyond the participant's life expectancy or the life expectancy of the participant and his/her designated beneficiary.

Effective November 6, 2020, the Plan was amended to permit an automatic rollover of a participant's vested account balance between $1,000 and $5,000 in the event the participant does not make a distribution election under the Plan.

In accordance with the Plan provisions, participants may make withdrawals from their accounts. To qualify for a withdrawal, participants must attain age 59-1/2, establish permanent or total disability, or demonstrate financial hardship as defined under the Plan.

Funds available for a hardship withdrawal are limited to a participant's need and may not exceed the total of the participant's contributions, certain Bank contributions, and earnings in the Plan as defined. Eligibility for a hardship withdrawal is defined as the need for uninsured medical expenses, purchase of a participant's principal residence, payment of post-high school tuition, to prevent the loss of residence, payment for burial or funeral expenses for a parent, child, spouse or dependent, or expenses for the repair of damage to the employee's principal residence under Internal Revenue Code Section 165.

*Forfeited Accounts*

At December 31, 2024 and 2023 forfeited non-vested account balances were $0. This account would be used to reduce future employer matching contributions to the plan and then to pay administrative expenses of the Plan. For the year ended December 31, 2024, employer contributions were reduced by $1,557 from forfeited nonvested accounts.

#### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2024 & 2023

#### AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024

#### NOTE B - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following are the significant accounting policies followed by the Plan:

*Basis of Accounting*

The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.

*Use of Estimates*

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Plan's administrator to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and changes therein, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

*Investment Valuation and Income Recognition.*

Investments are reported at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. See Note D for discussion of fair value measurements and see Note E for discussion of the fair value measurements of the ESOP components. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Net appreciation (depreciation) includes the Plan's gains and losses on investments bought and sold as well as held during the year.

*Payment of Benefits.*

Benefit payments to participants are recorded upon distribution.

*Notes Receivable From Participants*

Notes receivable from participants are measured at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Related fees are recorded as administrative expenses and are expensed when they are incurred.

*Contributions*

Contributions from Plan participants and the matching contributions from the Bank are recorded in the year in which the employee contributions are withheld from compensation.

*Operating Expenses*.

Certain expenses of maintaining the Plan are paid by the Plan, unless otherwise paid by the Bank. Expenses that are paid by the Bank are excluded from these financial statements. Fees related to the administration of notes receivable from participants are charged directly to the participant's account and are included in administrative expenses. Investment related expenses are included in net appreciation (depreciation) of fair value of investments.

#### AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024

#### <br>

#### NOTE C – TAX STATUS
The Internal Revenue Service has determined and informed the Bank by letter dated November 12, 2014 that the Plan is qualified and the trust established under the Plan is tax-exempt, under the appropriate sections of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC). The Plan has been amended since receiving the determination letter. However, the Plan administrator and the Plan's tax counsel believe that the Plan is currently designed and is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC. Therefore, they believe that the Plan was qualified and the related trust was tax-exempt as of December 31, 2024 and 2023.

Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the plan and recognize a tax liability if the plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. The Plan administrator believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2021. <br>

#### <br>

#### NOTE D - FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The Plan's investments are reported at fair value in the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits. The methods used to measure fair value may produce an amount that may not be indicative of net realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, although the Plan believes its valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of different methodologies or assumptions to measure the fair value of certain financial instruments could result in a different fair value at the reporting date.

Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) *Accounting Standards Codification* (ASC) Topic 820, *Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures*, provides the framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under FASB ASC 820 are described as follows:

#### NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2024 & 2023

#### AND FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2024

#### NOTE D – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS – (CONT'D)
Level 1: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the Plan has the ability to access.

Level 2: Inputs to the valuation methodology include:

&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;● Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;

&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;● Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets;

&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;● Inputs other than quoted market prices that are observable for the asset or liability;

&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;● Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

If the asset or liability has a specified (contractual) term, the Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3: Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair value. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at December 31, 2024 and 2023.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Mutual Funds are valued at the daily closing price as reported by the fund. Mutual funds held by the Plan are open-end mutual funds that are registered with the SEC. These funds are required to publish their daily net asset value (NAV) and to transact at that price. The mutual funds held by the Plan are deemed to be actively traded.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Collective Investment Funds are valued at the NAV of the units held by the custodian at year end. Unit values are determined by dividing the funds' net assets, which represent the unadjusted prices in active markets of the underlying investments, by the number of units outstanding at the valuation date. Participant transactions (purchases and sales) may occur daily. Were the Plan to initiate a full redemption of the collective investment fund, the investment adviser reserves the right to temporarily delay withdrawal from the fund in order to ensure that securities liquidations will be carried out in an orderly business manner.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The Orange County Bancorp, Inc. Stock Fund is a unitized stock fund. The fund consists of both Orange County Bancorp, Inc. common stock and a short-term cash component that provides liquidity for daily trading. Orange County Bancorp, Inc. common stock is valued at the quoted market price from a national securities exchange and the short-term cash investment is valued at cost, which approximates fair value.

The asset's or liability's fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

All of the Plan's investments are in a trust which was established for the investment of assets of the Plan. The assets of the trust are held by Empower Trust Company, LLC, custodian of the Plan.
