"During this period, we updated our strategic plan to prioritize sustainable growth supported by disciplined credit management and maintained a strong funding mix, high liquidity levels, and a solid capital position. We believe our full-year results underscore the resilience of our franchise, highlighted by a healthy financial margin and solid core PPNR. As we enter 2026, our priorities are clear: strengthen asset quality, optimize our balance sheet and operational processes, and accelerate profitable growth. I am confident in our team's dedication and the fundamentals of our business model. We remain committed to delivering value to our customers, communities, and shareholders."

    The following table sets forth selected financial information derived from the Company's interim unaudited and annual audited consolidated financial statements, adjusted for certain costs incurred by the Company in the periods presented related to tax deductible restructuring costs, provision for (reversal of) credit losses, provision for income tax expense (benefit), the effect of non-core banking activities such as the sale of loans and securities and other repossessed assets, the valuation of securities, derivatives, loans held for sale and other real estate owned and repossessed assets, the early repayment of FHLB advances, impairment of investments, enhancement of the bank owned life insurance and other non-core actions intended to improve customer service and operating performance. The Company believes these adjusted numbers are useful to understand the Company's performance absent these transactions and events.
