    Live Oak's performance for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared with the same period in 2024 included these notable items:

    • $96.3 million in capital was raised as a result of preferred stock offering in the third quarter of 2025
    • Revenue (comprised of net interest income and noninterest income1) increased 18.3% and noninterest expense1 increased 11.7%, which generated 28.9% growth in pre-provision net revenue2
    • Sale of Apiture, Inc. resulting in a pre-tax gain of $24.1 million which is included in equity method investments income (loss)
    • Provision expense for credit losses of $96.3 million remained relatively flat compared to 2024



    "Live Oak Bank delivered solid performance in 2025, a year defined by the resilience of small businesses and a disciplined focus on our core mission," said Live Oak Chairman and CEO James S. (Chip) Mahan III. "Our teams closed out the year with record loan growth across our small business and commercial lending teams, strong momentum in building low-cost deposits, and a dedicated approach to credit quality and stabilization.

    (1)  Certain immaterial prior-period amounts in the Statements of Income have been revised. Specifically, there was a decrease in the line item for net gains on sales of loans, which was fully offset by a decrease in salaries and employee benefits, and travel expense. The changes were presentation only and had no impact on previously reported net income, total assets, total liabilities, or shareholders' equity. Related efficiency and noninterest income to total revenue ratios have been revised accordingly.

    (2)  See accompanying GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation.

    This press release presents non-GAAP financial measures. The adjustments to reconcile from the non-GAAP financial measures to the applicable GAAP financial measure are included where applicable in financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company considers these adjustments to be relevant to ongoing operating results. The Company believes that excluding the amounts associated with these adjustments to present the non-GAAP financial measures provides a meaningful base for period-to-period comparisons, which will assist regulators, investors, and analysts in analyzing the operating results or financial position of the Company. The non-GAAP financial measures are used by management to assess the performance of the Company's business for presentations of Company performance to investors, and for other reasons as may be requested by investors and analysts. The Company further believes that presenting the non-GAAP financial measures will permit investors and analysts to assess the performance of the Company on the same basis as that applied by management. Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by shareholders to evaluate a company, they have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results reported under GAAP.
