There are or will be important factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those indicated in these forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the following: (a) the success of the financial technology industry, as well as the continued evolution of the regulation of this industry; (b) the ability of the Company’s Strategic Program or Fintech Banking Solutions service providers to comply with regulatory regimes, and the Company’s ability to adequately oversee and monitor its Strategic Program and Fintech Banking Solutions service providers; (c) the Company’s ability to maintain and grow its relationships with its service providers; (d) changes in the laws, rules, regulations, interpretations or policies relating to financial institutions, accounting, tax, trade, monetary and fiscal matters, including the application of interest rate caps or maximums; (e) the Company’s ability to keep pace with rapid technological changes in the industry or implement new technology effectively; (f) system failure or cybersecurity breaches of the Company’s network security; (g) potential exposure to fraud, negligence, computer theft and cyber-crime and other disruptions in the Company’s computer systems relating to its development and use of new technology platforms; (h) the Company’s reliance on third-party service providers for core systems support, informational website hosting, internet services, online account opening and other processing services; (i) general economic and business conditions, either nationally or in the Company’s market areas; (j) increased national or regional competition in the financial services industry; (k) the Company’s ability to measure and manage its credit risk effectively and the potential deterioration of the business and economic conditions in the Company’s primary market areas; (l) the adequacy of the Company’s risk management framework; (m) the adequacy of the Company’s allowance for credit losses (“ACL”); (n) the financial soundness of other financial institutions; (o) new lines of business or new products and services; (p) changes in Small Business Administration (“SBA”) rules, regulations and loan products, including specifically the Section 7(a) program or changes to the status of the Bank as an SBA Preferred Lender; (q) the value of collateral securing the Company’s loans; (r) the Company’s levels of nonperforming assets; (s) losses from loan defaults; (t) the Company’s ability to protect its intellectual property and the risks it faces with respect to claims and litigation initiated against the Company; (u) the Company’s ability to implement its growth strategy; (v) the Company’s ability to launch new products or services successfully; (w) the concentration of the Company’s lending and depositor relationships through Strategic Programs in the financial technology industry generally; (x) interest-rate and liquidity risks; (y) the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and its ability to remediate any future material weakness in its internal control over financial reporting; (z) dependence on our management team and changes in management composition; (aa) the sufficiency of the Company’s capital; (bb) compliance with laws and regulations, supervisory actions, the Dodd-Frank Act, capital requirements, the Bank Secrecy Act and other anti-money laundering laws, predatory lending laws, and other statutes and regulations; (cc) results of examinations of the Company by its regulators; (dd) the Company’s involvement from time to time in legal proceedings; (ee) natural disasters and adverse weather, acts of terrorism, pandemics, an outbreak of hostilities or other international or domestic calamities, and other matters beyond the Company’s control; (ff) future equity and debt issuances; (gg) that the anticipated benefits new lines of business that the Company may enter or investments or acquisitions the Company may make are not realized within the expected time frame or at all as a result of such things as the strength or weakness of the economy and competitive factors in the areas where the Company and such other businesses operate; and (hh) other factors listed from time to time in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, without limitation, its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and subsequent reports on Form 10-Q and Form 8-K. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of this release, and the Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether because of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law. New risks and uncertainties may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict their occurrence. In addition, the Company cannot assess the impact of each risk and uncertainty on its business or the extent to which any risk or uncertainty, or combination of risks and uncertainties, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Market and industry data This presentation includes estimates regarding market and industry data. Certain information is based on management estimates, which have been derived from third-party sources, as well as data from our internal research. While we believe the estimated market and industry data included in this presentation are generally reliable, such information, which is derived in part from management’s estimates and beliefs, is inherently uncertain and imprecise. Non-GAAP financial measures Some of the financial measures included in this presentation are not measures of financial performance recognized by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures are “tangible shareholders’ equity,” “tangible book value per share,” and “efficiency ratio.” We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors; however, we acknowledge that our non-GAAP financial measures have limitations. As such, you should not view these measures as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of such non-GAAP financial measures to the most closely related GAAP financial measures is included in the Appendix to this presentation.

Disciplined Expense Management While Investing for Growth Total Non-interest expense in 3Q24 included a one time catch-up in bonus accrual expense of approximately $400,000 to reflect updated performance award estimates. Longer-term increase in Total Non-interest Expense has been driven largely by business infrastructure spend, including headcount, to support organic growth and key strategic initiatives. Outlook: Expect pace of growth in expenses to decelerate in 4Q24. 16 3Q23 2Q24 3Q24 Full Time Employees (FTEs) 158 191 194 Efficiency Ratio (Non-GAAP)2 50.4% 66.3% 67.5% 1All Other Non-interest Expense refers to all other expense components within Total Non-interest Expense, excluding Salaries & Employee Benefits. 2See Appendix at the end of the presentation for Non-GAAP reconciliation
Disciplined Underwriting Process Mitigates Risk... • Credit risk is managed through combination of policy, data and pricing • Disciplined underwriting process and well collateralized portfolio has helped mitigate net charge-offs, even as credit quality normalized due to higher rate environment • Remain well-reserved with an ACL/Total Gross Loans HFI of 2.9% as of the end of 3Q24, reflecting a lower-risk portfolio vs. prior year period, including: • Significant increase in SBA guaranteed balances as % of Total Gross Loans HFI • Decrease in Strategic Programs (SP) HFI balances as % of Total Gross Loans HFI, which carry a higher reserve rate 17 *ACL = Allowance for Credit Losses; SP = Strategic Programs; HFI = Held for Investment
...and Leads to a Diversified and Lower Risk Loan Portfolio • Combined SBA Guaranteed and Strategic Program Loans (HFS) increased to a total of 46.0% of the portfolio as of 3Q24 vs 41.3% as of 3Q23 ◦ Both of these products carry lower credit risk: SBA Guaranteed loans are guaranteed by the U.S Small Business Administration and Strategic Program Loans (HFS) are supported by reserve deposit accounts • SBA Unguaranteed loans declined from 27.8% of the portfolio as of 3Q23 to 18.7% as of 3Q24 • Strategic Programs Loans (HFI) and Resi.

Both Tangible Book Value per Share (Non-GAAP) and Tangible Shareholder Equity to Tangible Assets as of the end of each respective period. 2Tangible Shareholder Equity to Tangible Assets ratio has declined primarily due to balance sheet growth and stock buyback. 3ROAE is negatively affected by high capital levels. Note: Profitability partly impacted by infrastructure investments to support organic growth and the build-out of key strategic initiatives. Profitability partly impacted by infrastructure investments to support organic growth and the build-out of key strategic initiatives. ROAE is also negatively affected by high capital levels
Diversified Income Sources 23 1 Other Non-interest Income includes all other non-interest income items, excluding Strategic Program Fees. Note: Revenue diversification is expected to increase with the build-out of Payments (MoneyRailsTM) and BIN Sponsorship Net Interest Income (NII) in 3Q24 was impacted by a one-time adjustment for accrued interest associated with loans that were determined to be nonperforming in prior periods which decreased NII by approximately $500,000. NIM in 3Q24 was also impacted by the above mentioned one-time adjustment and the longer-term decline has been mainly driven by a deliberate loan mix shift toward lower risk loans, which carry lower yields, in both HFI and HFS portfolios. NOTE: Early in 4Q24 we started to call our callable CDs and replace them with lower rate wholesale funding. SBA portfolio generally floats with prime rate and resets at the beginning of each quarter. Sequential quarter increase in Strategic Program Fees in 3Q24 driven primarily by a step-up in origination fees from our strategic programs.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations 26 (1) Tangible shareholders’ equity: This measure is not a measure recognized under GAAP and is therefore considered to be a non-GAAP financial measure. Tangible shareholders’ equity is defined as total shareholders’ equity less goodwill and other intangible assets. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is total shareholder’s equity to total assets. The Company had no goodwill or other intangible assets as of any of the dates indicated. The Company has not considered loan servicing rights or loan trailing fee asset as intangible assets for purposes of this calculation. As a result, tangible shareholders’ equity is the same as total shareholders’ equity as of each of the dates indicated. (2) Efficiency Ratio: This measure is not a measure recognized under United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and is therefore considered to be a non-GAAP financial measure. The efficiency ratio is defined as total non-interest expense divided by the sum of net interest income and non-interest income. The Company believes this measure is important as an indicator of productivity because it shows the amount of revenue generated for each dollar spent.

Glossary of Terms Used 27 ACH (The Automated Clearing House). Electronic funds-transfer system that facilitates payments in the U.S. and internationally. The ACH is run by Nacha. API (Application Programming Interface). Set of defined rules that enable different applications to communicate with each other. It acts as an intermediary layer that processes data transfers between systems, letting companies open their application data and functionality to external third-party developers, business partners, and internal departments within their companies. Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS). Banking model in which licensed banks integrate their digital banking services directly into the products of other non-bank businesses. This allows non-bank businesses to offer their customers digital banking services such as mobile bank accounts, debit cards, loans and payment services, without needing to acquire a banking license of their own. The bank's system communicates via APIs and webhooks with that of the non-bank's business, enabling the end customer to access banking services directly through the non-bank’s website or app. BIN (Bank Identification Number) Sponsorship. BIN sponsorship allows fintech businesses to quickly gain direct access to the payment processing and card management services provided by the likes of Visa or Mastercard without going through the process of joining a major card scheme. It provides fintechs with quickest way to launch a financial product with a debit, credit or prepaid card attached. FedNow. The clearing service for financial institutions to provide immediate end-to-end payments to customers. The key difference between this service and the Fed’s previous system is that FedNow will be online 24/7, processing transactions in real time. HFI (Held for Investment). When a reporting entity holds an originated or purchased loan for which it has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or to maturity or payoff, the loan should be classified as held-for-investment. Loans held for investment are reported on the balance sheet at their amortized cost basis. HFS (Held for Sale). When a reporting entity originates or purchases a loan with the intent to sell the loan to another entity (e.g., a government sponsored enterprise). Marketplace Lending. Nonbank lending that uses innovative financial technology (fintech) to make loans to consumers and small businesses. Mastercard RPPS (Remote Payment and Presentment Service). Mastercard RPPS optimizes electronic bill payment by connecting banks to billers. It offers a single, reliable connection for electronic payment providers to help with fast & secure consumer bill payments. Mastercard Send. Mastercard’s offering in the real-time personal payments arena. Senders can immediately make “push payments” to bank accounts, mobile wallets, prepaid debit cards, or targeted cash-out locations. The sender can initiate a Mastercard Send transaction with just the recipient’s debit card number. NIM: Net Interest Margin Payments Hub. Single-window payment platform through which companies can execute all their payments. Payment hubs increase fund control and visibility, reduce the risk associated with numerous fragmented payment processes, and improve overall operating efficiency. SBA7(a) loans. Small-business loans issued by a private lender and partially backed by the U.S. Small Business Administration. SMBs. Small to medium-sized businesses. Strategic Program Lending. Lending predominately done through fintech platforms that connect borrowers with lenders. Sometimes referred to as marketplace lending. TBV: Tangible Book Value The Clearing House RTP. A real-time payments platform that all federally insured U.S. depository institutions are eligible to use for payments innovation. All RTP payments are processed by The Clearing House. When you pay your utility bill for the month using RTP, your bank sends message to network which includes the details of the payment. The Clearing House then processes the message and routes it to utility company's bank, completing the payment. Visa Direct. A type of Original Credit Transaction (OCT) that allows fast and secure payment transfers to customers using their card details. Unlike with other payment methods, where it can typically take up to 24 hours for the funds to be transferred to the customer, Visa Direct transactions normally complete near-instantly.
