CEO COMMENTS

"I am pleased to report continued year-over-year quarterly earnings growth to kick off 2026," commented Tony C. McKim, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer. "Net income of $9.0 million for the first quarter is an increase of 27.1% from the first quarter of 2025. Our Return on Average Assets for the period was 1.15% and our Return on Average Tangible Common Equity was 14.15%, both up nicely from 0.91% and 12.64%, respectively, a year ago.

"Earnings growth has been driven by continued expansion of our net interest margin, coupled with increased non-interest revenue and controlled expenses. Our margin improved for the seventh consecutive quarter, to 2.86% for the first quarter of 2026, up 38 basis points from the first quarter of 2025, with the improvement stemming from a combination of earning asset yield enhancement focused in the loan portfolio and reduced funding costs.

"Total assets increased $34 million in the quarter, including net loan growth of $11 million. New loan production for the quarter was $116 million. Total deposits were flat as non-maturity

deposits followed a typical seasonal pattern, falling $58.6 million during the period, and were replaced by short-term time deposits and borrowings. Our capital position strengthened as compared to both the prior year quarter and the immediate prior quarter, and overall liquidity remains more than sufficient."

Concluding, Mr. McKim shared, "We are pleased to carry forward last year's earnings momentum into 2026 with positive first quarter results. The entire team at First National Bank is focused on delivering exceptional banking experiences to our growing customer base and building value for the communities and stakeholders we serve."

OPERATING RESULTS Q1 2026 v. Q1 2025 (prior year quarter)

Net income was $9.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, an increase of $1.9 million or 27.1% from the first quarter of 2025. Net interest income was $20.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, an increase of $2.9 million or 16.2% from the first quarter of 2025. Net interest margin improved to 2.86% for the first quarter of 2026, up from 2.48% in the prior year quarter. The lift in margin was the result of a 5 basis point increase in the tax equivalent yield on earning assets coupled with a 38 basis point decrease in the cost of total liabilities. Earning assets averaged a yield of 5.33% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, while total liabilities carried an average cost of 2.89%.

Total non-interest income was $4.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, an increase of $449,000, or 11.2% from the first quarter of 2025. The increase was centered in Wealth Management revenue which was up $169,000 or 12.8% from the prior year, and other operating income which increased $228,000 or 28.9%. Total non-interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $13.6 million, an increase of $772,000, or 6.0%, from the first quarter of 2025. The period-to-period change is centered in employee salaries and benefits, resulting from annual salary adjustments, lower deferred salaries, and higher health insurance expenses. The Company's efficiency ratio for the first quarter of 2026 was 52.64%, improved from 56.93% in the prior year quarter.

OPERATING RESULTS Q1 2026 v. Q4 2025 (linked quarter)

Net income was $9.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, a decrease of $1.2 million or 11.6% from the fourth quarter of 2025. Net interest income of $20.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, was a decrease of $422,000 or 2.0% from the linked quarter, attributable primarily to Q4 2025 having two more days of net interest income accrual than Q1 2026. The net interest margin increased to 2.86% in the first quarter of 2026, an improvement of 3 basis points from the linked quarter.

Total non-interest income of $4.5 million for the first quarter of 2026 was down $283,000 from the fourth quarter of 2025. The change is centered in a $396,000 decrease in Debit Card income stemming from seasonally lower transaction volume and recognition of an annual program incentive payment in the linked quarter. Other operating income increased $82,000, principally from loan-based derivative fees, and revenue increased $53,000 at First National Wealth Management. Total non-interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $13.6 million, an increase of $485,000, or 3.7%, from the linked quarter.

Loan balances grew at a modest pace in the first quarter, the net effect of new loan production, scheduled amortization, and payoffs during the period.

Commercial and industrial loan balances increased $16.1 million, while commercial real estate loan balances and multifamily loan balances decreased by $5.3 million and $8.5 million, respectively.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain information in this release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Management uses these “non-GAAP” measures in its analysis of the Company's performance (including for purposes of determining the compensation of certain executive officers and other Company employees) and believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhance comparability of results with prior periods and with other financial institutions, as well as demonstrating the effects of significant gains and charges in the current period, in light of the disclosure practices employed by many other publicly-traded financial institutions. The Company believes that a meaningful analysis of its financial performance requires an understanding of the factors underlying that performance. Management believes that investors may use these non-GAAP financial measures to analyze financial performance without the impact of unusual items that may obscure trends in the Company's underlying performance. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.

In several places net interest income is calculated on a fully tax-equivalent basis. Specifically included in interest income was tax-exempt interest income from certain investment securities and loans. An amount equal to the tax benefit derived from this tax-exempt income has been added back to the interest income total which, as adjusted, increased net interest income accordingly. Management believes the disclosure of tax-equivalent net interest income information improves the clarity of financial analysis, and is particularly useful to investors in understanding and evaluating the changes and trends in the Company's results of operations. Other financial institutions commonly present net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis. This adjustment is considered helpful in the comparison of one financial institution's net interest income to that of another institution, as each will have a different proportion of tax-exempt interest from its earning assets. Moreover, net interest income is a component of a second financial measure commonly used by financial institutions, net interest margin, which is the ratio of net interest income to average earning assets. For purposes of this measure as well, other financial institutions generally use tax-equivalent net interest income to provide a better basis of comparison from institution to institution. The Company follows these practices.

The following table provides a reconciliation of tax-equivalent financial information to the Company's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. A 21.0% tax rate was used in both 2026 and 2025.

For the quarters ended

In thousands of dollars 3/31/2026 12/31/2025 3/31/2025

Net interest income as presented $ 20,689 $ 21,111 $ 17,799

Effect of tax-exempt income 663 701 711

Net interest income, tax equivalent $ 21,352 $ 21,812 $ 18,510

The Company presents its efficiency ratio using non-GAAP information which is most commonly used by financial institutions. The GAAP-based efficiency ratio is non-interest expenses divided by net interest income plus non-interest income from the Consolidated Statements of Income. The non-GAAP efficiency ratio excludes securities losses and provision for credit losses on securities from non-interest expenses, excludes securities gains from non-interest income, and adds the tax-

equivalent adjustment to net interest income. The following table provides a reconciliation between the GAAP and non-GAAP efficiency ratio:

For the quarters ended

In thousands of dollars 3/31/2026 12/31/2025 3/31/2025

Non-interest expense, as presented $ 13,616 $ 13,131 $ 12,844

Net interest income, as presented 20,689 21,111 17,799

Effect of tax-exempt interest income 663 701 711

Non-interest income, as presented 4,451 4,734 4,002

Effect of non-interest tax-exempt income 77 70 48

Net securities gains (12) — —

Adjusted net interest income plus non-interest income $ 25,868 $ 26,616 $ 22,560

Non-GAAP efficiency ratio 52.64 % 49.33 % 56.93 %

GAAP efficiency ratio 54.16 % 50.81 % 58.91 %

The Company presents certain information based upon tangible common equity instead of total shareholders' equity. The difference between these two measures is the Company's intangible assets, specifically goodwill from prior acquisitions. Management, banking regulators and many stock analysts use the tangible common equity ratio and the tangible book value per common share in conjunction with more traditional bank capital ratios to compare the capital adequacy of banking organizations with significant amounts of goodwill or other intangible assets, typically stemming from the use of the purchase accounting method in accounting for mergers and acquisitions. The following table provides a reconciliation of average tangible common equity to the Company's consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP:

For the quarters ended

In thousands of dollars 3/31/2026 12/31/2025 3/31/2025

Average shareholders' equity as presented $ 288,560 $ 268,059 $ 257,807

Less intangible assets (30,775) (30,791) (30,801)

Tangible average shareholders' equity $ 257,785 $ 237,268 $ 227,006

To provide period-to-period comparison of operating results prior to consideration of credit loss provision and income taxes, the non-GAAP measure of PTPP Net Income is presented. The following table provides a reconciliation to Net Income:

For the quarters ended

In thousands of dollars 3/31/2026 12/31/2025 3/31/2025

Net Income, as presented $ 8,993 $ 10,172 $ 7,077

Add: credit loss expense 620 272 392

Add: income taxes 1,911 2,270 1,488

Pre-Tax, pre-provision net income $ 11,524 $ 12,714 $ 8,957
