James E. Beckwith, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented:
“In the third quarter of 2026, Five Star raised approximately $130.0 million in net proceeds through an underwritten public offering of 3,133,750 shares of common stock, expanding our capacity for organic growth and strategic investment. We also strengthened our California presence with the opening of a new branch in Lodi, a new Calabasas administrative office, and four key hires in Palo Alto, bringing our high-tech, high-touch relationship-based banking experience to more clients.
The third quarter of 2026 delivered steadfast results: net income rose to $21.9 million from $19.4 million in the second quarter of 2026, and net interest income increased $4.8 million, or 11%, to $50.9 million compared to the same period. Net interest margin improved six basis points to 3.69%, the efficiency ratio improved to 39.13% from 40.91% in the second quarter of 2026, and basic earnings per share reached $0.92, up $0.01 from the second quarter of 2026 and $0.15 from the third quarter of 2025.
Total loans held for investment grew $184.5 million, or 4% (approximately 16% annualized), while non-wholesale deposits increased $75.1 million, or 2% (approximately 7% annualized) and wholesale deposits decreased $50.0 million, or 20% (approximately 80% annualized). We also declared a $0.25 per share cash dividend, $0.05 more than those declared in 2025, reinforcing our commitment to shareholder value.
Five Star Bank’s success reflects the strength of our team and the value of authentic, relationship-based service. Our technology, operating discipline, conservative underwriting, strong credit quality, and prudent portfolio management position us to create lasting value for customers, employees, communities, and shareholders. We thank our employees for keeping Five Star Bank a safe, trusted, and steadfast banking partner as we enter the fourth quarter of 2026.”

Summary Results
Three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to three months ended June 30, 2026
The Company’s net income was $21.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to $19.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026. Net interest income increased by $4.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2026, primarily reflecting growth in higher-yielding loans and an increase in the yield on interest-earning assets, partially offset by higher deposit funding costs. The provision for credit losses increased by $0.3 million during the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2026, reflecting loan growth and changes resulting from the annual Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) model refresh. Non-interest income decreased by $0.2 million during the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2026, primarily due to an overall decline in earnings related to investments in venture-backed funds and lower loan referral income, partially offset by a special FHLB stock dividend. Non-interest expense increased by $1.0 million during the three months ended September 30, 2026, as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2026, primarily due to higher salaries and employee benefits from increased headcount and increased recruiter fees, partially offset by decreases in employee-related expenses, advertising and promotional expenses, and operational losses.

The increase in total assets from December 31, 2025 to September 30, 2026 was primarily comprised of a $629.3 million increase in total loans held for investment and a $172.6 million increase in cash and cash equivalents. The $629.3 million increase in total loans held for investment between December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2026 was a result of $1.6 billion in loan originations and advances, partially offset by $304.5 million and $633.2 million in loan payoffs and paydowns, respectively. The $629.3 million increase in total loans held for investment included $230.7 million in purchased loans within the consumer section of the loan portfolio. The $172.6 million increase in cash and cash equivalents primarily resulted from $130.0 million in net proceeds from the underwritten public offering (after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately $7.3 million, and offering expenses of approximately $0.6 million), $59.9 million in net income, and $623.4 million in deposit growth, partially offset by $629.3 million in cash outflows to fund growth in total loans held for investment.
The increase in total liabilities from December 31, 2025 to September 30, 2026 was primarily due to an increase in deposits of $623.4 million. The increase in deposits was largely due to increases in money market, non-interest-bearing, and interest-bearing transaction deposits of $712.6 million, $126.0 million, and $71.5 million, respectively, partially offset by a $296.8 million decrease in time deposits, mainly attributable to a $265.0 million decline in wholesale deposits.
The increase in total shareholders’ equity from December 31, 2025 to September 30, 2026 was primarily a result of $130.0 million of additional common stock outstanding and $59.9 million recognized as net income during the period, partially offset by $16.8 million in cash dividends paid during the period and a $3.2 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Net interest income during the three months ended September 30, 2026 increased by $4.8 million, or 10.51%, to $50.9 million, as compared to $46.1 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026. Net interest margin totaled 3.69% for the three months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of six basis points compared to the prior quarter, primarily reflecting growth in higher-yielding loans and an increase in the yield on interest-earning assets, partially offset by higher deposit funding costs. The $4.8 million increase in net interest income is primarily attributable to a $376.7 million, or 7.39%, increase in average interest-earning assets. The average balance of loans increased $284.3 million, or 6.57%, and the average balance of interest-earning deposits in banks increased $95.7 million, or 14.14%. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased five basis points to 5.74%, including a six-basis-point increase in the average loan yield to 6.14%. The increase in interest income was partially offset by a $2.0 million increase in interest expense. The average balance of deposits increased $257.9 million, or 5.55%, combined with a three-basis-point increase in the average cost of deposits. The average balance of non-interest bearing deposits increased $48.1 million, or 4.13%, helping to partially offset the rise in deposit funding costs.
As compared to the three months ended September 30, 2025, net interest income during the three months ended September 30, 2026 increased by $11.6 million, or 29.42%, to $50.9 million from $39.3 million. Net interest margin totaled 3.69% for the three months ended September 30, 2026, an increase of 13 basis points compared to the same quarter of the prior year. The increase primarily reflected balance sheet growth and lower deposit funding costs following three Federal Reserve rate cuts that began in September 2025, partially offset by lower yields on interest-earning assets. The increase in net interest income is primarily attributable to a $14.3 million increase in interest income, mainly due to a $780.8 million, or 20.38%, increase in the average balance of loans and a $321.4 million, or 71.17%, increase in the average balance of interest-earning deposits in banks. The benefit from higher average earning assets was partially offset by a 13-basis-point decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets to 5.74%. The average loan yield remained stable at 6.14%, as the effect of lower rates on repricing loans was offset by loan growth and changes in portfolio mix. This increase in interest income was partially offset by a $2.8 million increase in interest expense, stemming from a $946.6 million, or 23.89%, increase in the average balance of deposits during the three months ended September 30, 2026, moderated by a 25-basis-point decrease in the average cost of deposits compared to the same quarter of the prior year, reflecting deposit repricing following the three Federal Reserve rate cuts that began in September 2025 and an improved funding mix. Further supporting the decreasing average cost of deposits, the average balance of non-interest-bearing deposits increased by $195.5 million, or 19.23%, and brokered deposits decreased from $216.4 million to zero compared to the same period of the prior year.

Allowance for Credit Losses
At September 30, 2026, the Company’s allowance for credit losses was $49.4 million, as compared to $44.4 million at December 31, 2025. The $5.0 million increase in the allowance is due to a $7.3 million provision for credit losses (excluding a $0.2 million provision for unfunded commitments) recorded during the nine months ended September 30, 2026, partially offset by net charge-offs of $2.3 million, primarily attributable to commercial and industrial loans, during the same period.

The ratio of allowance for credit losses to loans held for investment was 1.05% at September 30, 2026, as compared to 1.09% at December 31, 2025.
Risk Grades
The Company’s nonperforming loans increased from $3.1 million to $13.3 million between December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2026, increasing the ratio of nonperforming loans to loans held for investment from 0.08% at December 31, 2025 to 0.28% at September 30, 2026. This increase was due to one Community Reinvestment Act-related credit that was originally downgraded during 2025 and placed on non-accrual status during the three months ended June 30, 2026. The balance of the loan was $11.4 million as of September 30, 2026, and it remains well secured by collateral with an appraised value that meaningfully exceeds its carrying amount. This was partially offset by improvements across the remainder of the nonperforming loan portfolio.
The following table presents the Company’s loan portfolio by risk grade as of the dates shown:

| Total non-interest expense | $ | 20,591 | $ | 16,580 | $ | 4,011 | 24.19 | % | ||||
Salaries and employee benefits. The increase related primarily to: (i) a $2.5 million increase in salaries, benefits, and bonus expense, mainly related to a 16.29% increase in headcount between September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2026; and (ii) a $0.5 million increase in commissions primarily due to higher loan originations period-over-period. This increase was partially offset by a $0.4 million increase in deferred loan origination costs due to higher loan originations period-over-period.
Occupancy and equipment. The increase was primarily driven by expenses associated with the Lodi branch office and the Calabasas non-depository office, both opened subsequent to the three months ended September 30, 2025. Additional increases stemmed from the Walnut Creek branch office and the Newport Beach non-depository office, which were only open for a portion of the three months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the full three months ended September 30, 2026, and the San Francisco branch office, where an expansion project completed in the fourth quarter of 2025 resulted in elevated ongoing expenses.
Data processing and software. The increase was primarily due to: (i) increased usage of our digital banking platform; (ii) higher transaction volumes related to the increased number of loan and deposit accounts; (iii) an increased number of licenses required for new users on our loan origination and documentation system; and (iv) the implementation of enhanced commercial real estate lending analytics and risk assessment software.
FDIC insurance. FDIC insurance expenses is calculated based on the FDIC assessment base, which generally reflects average consolidated total assets less average tangible equity. The increase in FDIC insurance expense was primarily due to a $960.4 million increase in the assessment base period-over-period.
Professional services. The increase related primarily to: (i) a $0.2 million increase in recruiter fees associated with strategic hiring initiatives; and (ii) a $0.1 million increase in legal fees period-over-period related to legal fees incurred in the ordinary course of business.
Other operating expenses. The increase related primarily to: (i) a $0.1 million increase in bank charges; (ii) a $0.1 million increase in reciprocal deposit network fees resulting from an overall increase in balances carried in the network; (iii) a $0.1 million increase in armored car and courier services; and (iv) a $0.1 million increase in employee-related expenses such as travel. This increase was partially offset by a $0.1 million decrease in operational losses.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation (Unaudited)
The Company uses financial information in its analysis of the Company’s performance that is not in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors that is supplementary to the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP. However, the Company acknowledges that its non-GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations. As such, investors should not view these disclosures as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, these non-GAAP measures are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP financial measures that other banking companies use. Other banking companies may use names similar to those the Company uses for the non-GAAP financial measures the Company discloses, but may calculate them differently. Investors should understand how the Company and other companies each calculate their non-GAAP financial measures when making comparisons.
Tangible shareholders’ equity to tangible assets is defined as total equity less goodwill and other intangible assets, divided by total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is total shareholders’ equity to total assets. Management believes that tangible shareholders’ equity to tangible assets is a useful financial measure because it enables management, investors, and others to assess the Company’s financial health based on tangible capital. We had no goodwill or other intangible assets at the end of any period indicated. As a result, tangible shareholders’ equity to tangible assets is the same as total shareholders’ equity to total assets at the end of each of the periods indicated.
Tangible book value per share is defined as total shareholders’ equity less goodwill and other intangible assets, divided by the outstanding number of common shares at the end of the period. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is book value per share. Management believes that tangible book value per share is a useful financial measure because it enables management, investors, and others to assess the Company’s value and use of equity. We had no goodwill or other intangible assets at the end of any period indicated. As a result, tangible book value per share is the same as book value per share at the end of each of the periods indicated.
Pre-tax, pre-provision income is defined as pre-tax income plus provision for credit losses. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is pre-tax income. Management believes that pre-tax, pre-provision income is a useful financial measure because it enables management, investors, and others to assess the Company’s ability to generate operating profit and capital.
