### FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

### Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information

The statements contained herein that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements based on management’s current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on the Company. Such statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and are generally beyond our control. We caution readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: the conditions of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which we conduct operations; the impact of any future federal government shutdown and uncertainty regarding the federal government’s debt limit or changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; the impacts of inflation, interest rate, market and monetary fluctuations on the Company's business condition and financial operating results; the impact of changes in financial services industry policies, laws and regulations; regulatory restrictions affecting our ability to successfully market and price our products to consumers; the risks related to the development, implementation, use and management of emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence and machine learning; extreme weather, natural disasters and other catastrophic events that may or may not be caused by climate change and their effects on the Company's customers and the economic and business environments in which the Company operates; the impact of a slowing U.S. economy, decreases in housing and commercial real estate prices, and potentially increased unemployment on the performance of our loan portfolio, the market value of our investment securities and possible other-than-temporary impairment of securities held by us due to changes in credit quality or rates; the availability of, and cost of, sources of funding and the demand for our products; adverse developments with respect to U.S. or global economic conditions and other uncertainties, including the impact of supply chain disruptions, commodities prices, inflationary pressures and labor shortages on the economic recovery and our business; the impacts of international hostilities, wars, terrorism or geopolitical events; adverse developments in the financial services industry generally such as the recent bank failures and any related impact on depositor behavior or investor sentiment; risks related to the sufficiency of liquidity; the possibility that our recorded goodwill could become impaired, which may have an adverse impact on our earnings and capital; the costs or effects of mergers, acquisitions or dispositions we may make, as well as whether we are able to obtain any required governmental approvals in connection with any such activities, or identify and complete favorable transactions in the future, and/or realize the anticipated financial and business benefits; the regulatory and financial impacts associated with exceeding $10 billion in total assets; the negative impact on our reputation and profitability in the event customers experience economic harm or in the event that regulatory violations are identified; the ability to execute our business plan in new markets; the future operating or financial performance of the Company, including our outlook for future growth and changes in the level and direction of our nonperforming assets and charge-offs; the appropriateness of the allowance for credit losses, including the assumptions made under our current expected credit losses model; any deterioration in values of California real estate, both residential and commercial; the effectiveness of the Company's asset management activities managing the mix of earning assets and in improving, resolving or liquidating lower-quality assets; the effect of changes in the financial performance and/or condition of our borrowers; changes in accounting standards and practices; changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits; our ability to attract and maintain deposits and other sources of liquidity; the effects of changes in the level or cost of checking or savings account deposits on our funding costs and net interest margin; increasing noninterest expense and its impact on our financial performance; competition and innovation with respect to financial products and services by banks, financial institutions and non-traditional competitors including retail businesses and technology companies; the challenges of attracting, integrating and retaining key employees; the vulnerability of the Company's operational or security systems or infrastructure, the systems of third-party vendors or other service providers with whom the Company contracts, and the Company's customers to unauthorized access, computer viruses, phishing schemes, spam attacks, human error, natural disasters, power loss and data/security breaches and the cost to defend against and respond to such incidents; the impact of the 2023 cyber security ransomware incident on our operations and reputation; increased data security risks due to work from home arrangements and email vulnerability; failure to safeguard personal information, and any resulting litigation; the effect of a fall in stock market prices on our brokerage and wealth management businesses; the transition from the LIBOR to new interest rate benchmarks; the emergence or continuation of widespread health emergencies or pandemics; the Company’s potential judgments, orders, settlements, penalties, fines and reputational damage resulting from pending or future litigation and regulatory investigations, proceedings and enforcement actions; and our ability to manage the risks involved in the foregoing. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be the same as those anticipated by management. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and all subsequent filings with the SEC under Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14, and 15(d) of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended. Such filings are also available in the “Investor Relations” section of our website, *https://www.tcbk.com/investor-relations* and in other documents we file with the SEC. Annualized, pro forma, projections and estimates are not forecasts and may not reflect actual results. We undertake no obligation (and expressly disclaim any such obligation) to update or alter our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law.

### General

As TriCo Bancshares (referred to in this report as “we”, “our” or the “Company”) has not commenced any business operations independent of Tri Counties Bank (the “Bank”), the following discussion pertains primarily to the Bank. Average balances, including such balances used in calculating certain financial ratios, are generally comprised of average daily balances for the Company. Within Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, interest income, net interest income, and net interest yield are generally presented on a FTE basis. The Company believes the use of these non-generally accepted accounting principles (non-GAAP) measures provides additional clarity in assessing its results, and the presentation of these measures on a FTE basis is a common practice within the banking industry. Interest income and net interest income are shown on a non-FTE basis in the Part I - Financial Information section of this Form 10-Q, and a reconciliation of the FTE and non-FTE presentations is provided below in the discussion of net interest income.

### Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company’s discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of operations are based upon the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Company to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those that materially affect the financial statements and are related to the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses, investments, mortgage servicing rights, fair value measurements, retirement plans and intangible assets. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. A detailed discussion related to the Company’s accounting policies including those related to estimates on the allowance for credit losses related to loans and investment securities, and impairment of intangible assets, can be found in Note 1 of the consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

### Geographical Descriptions

For the purpose of describing the geographical location of the Company’s operations, the Company has defined northern California as that area of California north of, and including, Stockton to the east and San Jose to the west; central California as that area of the state south of Stockton and San Jose, to and including, Bakersfield to the east and San Luis Obispo to the west; and southern California as that area of the state south of Bakersfield and San Luis Obispo.

(1) Certain information included herein is presented on a FTE basis and/or to present additional financial details which may be desired by users of this financial information. The Company believes the use of this non-generally accepted accounting principles (non-GAAP) measure provides additional clarity in assessing its results, and the presentation of these measures is a common practice within the banking industry.

Loans may be acquired at a premium or discount to par value, in which case, the premium is amortized (subtracted from) or the discount is accreted (added to) interest income over the remaining life of the loan. The dollar impact of loan discount accretion and loan premium amortization decrease as the purchased loans mature or pay off early. Upon the early pay off of a loan, any remaining unaccreted discount or unamortized premium is immediately taken into interest income; and as loan payoffs may vary significantly from quarter to quarter, so may the impact of discount accretion and premium amortization on interest income. Despite the elevated rate environment, the prepayment rate of portfolio loans, inclusive of those acquired at a premium or discount, remains consistent. During the quarters ended June 30, 2024, March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2023, the purchased loan discount accretion was $0.9 million, $1.3 million and $1.5 million, respectively.

### Summary of Average Balances, Yields/Rates and Interest Differential

The following table presents, for the three month periods indicated, information regarding the Company’s consolidated average assets, liabilities and shareholders’ equity, the amounts of interest income from average interest-earning assets and resulting yields, and the amount of interest expense paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Average loan balances include nonperforming loans. Interest income includes proceeds from loans on nonaccrual loans only to the extent cash payments have been received and applied to interest income. Yields on securities and certain loans have been adjusted upward to reflect the effect of income thereon exempt from federal income taxation at the current statutory tax rate (dollars in thousands).

| Net interest income and interest margin(3) |  | $82,272 | 3.68% |  | $88,980 | 3.96% |

(1) Fully taxable equivalent (FTE). All yields and rates are calculated using specific day counts for the period and year as applicable.

(2) Net interest spread represents the average yield earned on interest-earning assets minus the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities.

(3) Net interest margin is computed by calculating the difference between interest income and interest expense, divided by the average balance of interest-earning assets, then annualized based on the number of days in the given period.

Net interest income (FTE) during the three months ended June 30, 2024, decreased $6.7 million or 8% to $82.3 million compared to $89.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023. In addition, net interest margin declined 28 basis points to 3.68%, compared to the same quarter last year. The decrease in net interest income is primarily attributed to an additional $17.6 million in deposit interest expense due to changes in product mix in conjunction with competitive pricing pressures. The cost of interest-bearing deposits increased by 119 basis points between the quarter ended June 30, 2024 and the same quarter of the prior year. In addition, the average balance of noninterest-bearing deposits decreased by $562.5 million from the three month average for the period ended June 30, 2023 as customers continue to be migrate towards higher yielding term deposit accounts. As of June 30, 2024, the ratio of average total noninterest-bearing deposits to total average deposits was 32.0%, as compared to 33.8% and 39.2% at March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively. The increase in cost of interest bearing liabilities was partially offset by increased interest and fee income on loans totaling $11.5 million compared to the same quarter of the prior year. Average loan yields increased 44 basis points from 5.38% during the three months ended June 30, 2023, to 5.82% during the three months ended June 30, 2024. The accretion of discounts from acquired loans added 5 and 9 basis points to loan yields during the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Additionally, the average balance of loans during the quarter increased $324.9 million compared to the same period in the prior year.

(1) Fully taxable equivalent (FTE). All yields and rates are calculated using specific day counts for the period and year as applicable.

(2) Net interest spread represents the average yield earned on interest-earning assets minus the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities.

(3) Net interest margin is computed by calculating the difference between interest income and interest expense, divided by the average balance of interest-earning assets, then annualized based on the number of days in the given period.

Net interest income (FTE) during the six months ended June 30, 2024, decreased $17.4 million, or 10%, to $165.3 million compared to $182.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023. In addition, net interest margin declined 40 basis points to 3.68%, compared to the same period in the prior year. The decrease in net interest income is primarily attributed to an increased cost of interest bearing liabilities, primarily on deposits. The cost of interest bearing deposits increased by 130 basis points during the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in the prior year. In addition, the average balance of noninterest-bearing deposits decreased by $643.5 million from the six month average for the period ended June 30, 2023 amidst a continued migration of customer funds to interest-bearing products, as discussed above. The increases in the cost of interest bearing liabilities were partially offset by increased interest and fee income on loans. As compared to the same period in the prior year, the average balance of loans increased $348.3 million and average loan yields increased 47 basis points from 5.30% during the six months ended June 30, 2023, to 5.77% during the six months ended June 30, 2024. The accretion of discounts from acquired loans added 8 and 9 basis points to loan yields during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively.

The following commentary regarding net interest income, interest income and interest expense may be best understood while referencing the *Summary of Average Balances, Yields/Rates and Interest Differential* and the *Summary of Changes in Interest Income and Expense due to Changes in Average Asset and Liability Balances and Yields Earned and Rates Paid* shown above.

Net interest income (FTE) during the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased $6.7 million to $82.3 million compared to $89.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023. The overall decrease in net interest income (FTE) was due to increasing interest rates elevating interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, most significantly deposits. Elevated interest rates also improved interest income on earning assets by $9.8 million, partially offsetting the increases in interest expense.

Net interest income (FTE) during the six months ended June 30, 2024 decreased $17.4 million to $165.3 million compared to $182.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023. The overall decrease in net interest income (FTE) was due to increasing interest rates elevating interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, most significantly deposits and other borrowings, resulting in a net increase of $35.9 million and $3.3 million, respectively. Elevated interest rates also improved interest income on earning assets by $22.2 million, partially offsetting the increases in interest expense.

### Asset Quality and Credit Loss Provisioning

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $0.4 million, as compared to $4.3 million during the trailing quarter, and $9.7 million during the second quarter of 2023.

|  | Three months ended June 30, 2024 | June 30, 2023 | Six months ended June 30, 2024 | June 30, 2023 |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Addition to allowance for credit losses | $335 | $8,980 | $4,350 | $13,295 |

| Total provision for (reversal of) credit losses | $405 | $9,650 | $4,710 | $13,845 |

The allowance for credit losses (ACL) was $123.5 million or 1.83% of total loans as of June 30, 2024. For the current quarter, the qualitative components of the ACL that contributed to an increase in required reserves primarily related to uncertainty around US policy and related effects on domestic economic trends that are inconsistent with those desired by the FOMC.

The Company utilizes a forecast period of approximately eight quarters and obtains the forecast data from publicly available sources as of the balance sheet date. This forecast data continues to evolve and includes improving shifts in the magnitude of changes for both the unemployment and GDP factors leading up to the balance sheet date. Despite continued declines on a year over year comparative basis, core inflation remains elevated from wage pressures, and higher living costs such as housing, energy and general services. Management notes the rapid intervals of rate increases by the Federal Reserve may create repricing risk for certain borrowers and continued inversion of the yield curve, creates informed expectations of the US potentially entering a recession within 12 months. While projected cuts in interest rates from the Federal Reserve during 2024 may improve this outlook, the uncertainty associated with the extent and timing of these potential reductions has inhibited a change to forecasted reserve levels. As a result, management continues to believe that certain credit weaknesses are likely present in the overall economy and that it is appropriate to maintain a reserve level that incorporates such risk factors.

Loans past due 30 days or more increased by $13.9 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, to $30.4 million, as compared to $16.5 million at March 31, 2024. The majority of loans identified as past due are well-secured by collateral, and approximately $13.3 million is less than 90 days delinquent. Non-performing loans were $32.8 million at June 30, 2024, a decrease of $1.4 million from $34.2 million as of March 31, 2024, and a decrease of $4.8 million from $37.6 million as of June 30, 2023. Management continues to proactively work with these borrowers to identify actionable and appropriate resolution strategies which are customary for the industries. Of the $32.8 million loans designated as non-performing as of June 30, 2024, approximately $11.7 million are current or less than 30 days past due with respect to payments required under their existing loan agreements.

The ratio of classified loans to total loans of 1.56% as of June 30, 2024, increased 44 basis points from March 31, 2024 and increased 56 basis points from the comparative quarter ended 2023. The change in criticized loans outstanding as compared to the trailing quarter totaled $21.9 million. Loans with the risk grade classification substandard increased by $28.7 million over the trailing quarter and relate primarily to five loans across two relationships totaling $25.2 million, including $18.0 million in agricultural and farmland loans and $7.2 million in non-owner occupied CRE loans. All loans within these relationships are performing as agreed and have substantial collateral support and borrower guarantees. As a percentage of total loans outstanding, classified assets remain consistent with volumes experienced prior to the recent quantitative easing cycle spurred by the COVID pandemic and reflect management's historically conservative approach to credit risk monitoring. The Company's combined criticized loan balances totaled $206.3 million as of June 30, 2024, an improvement of $14.5 million from June 30, 2023.

Outstanding balances on construction loans, which have historically been associated with elevated levels of risk, experienced balance reductions of $65.6 million during the current quarter. These reductions were primarily associated with $49.1 million in balances that were converted to term loans upon the completion of construction and achievement of stabilized occupancy, $44.0 million in balances that paid down or paid-off, and the offsetting balance representing new draws or originations.

Further, management has taken action to proactively assess the repayment capacity of borrowers that will likely be subject to rate resets in the near term. To date this analysis as well as management's observations of loans that have experienced a rate reset, have not resulted in the need to provide any

As of June 30, 2024, other real estate owned consisted of 10 properties with a carrying value of approximately $2.5 million, which is unchanged from the trailing quarter end. Non-performing assets of $35.3 million at June 30, 2024, represented 0.36% of total assets, a change from the $36.7 million or 0.37% and $40.5 million or 0.41% as of March 31, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively.

Non-interest expense decreased $0.2 million or 0.2% to $114.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024, as compared to $115.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. This was largely attributed to non-cash intangible amortization expense declines of $1.3 million or 37.8% and operational loss decreases of $0.9 million or 60.9% due to reasons described above. These declines were partially offset by an increase of $2.4 million or 3.6% in total salaries and benefits expense to $69.7 million, largely from annual compensation adjustments and other routine increases in benefits and compensation. Salaries expense was also impacted by an increase in average compensation per employee as various strategic talent acquisitions were made in order to further prepare the Company to execute its growth objectives beyond $10 billion in total assets. Finally, data processing and software expenses increased by $1.5 million or 17.7% related to ongoing investments in the Company's data management and security infrastructure.

### Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate was 25.8% and 26.1% for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively as compared to 25.6% and 26.3% for the comparative periods ended June 30, 2023, respectively. Differences between the Company's effective tax rate and applicable federal and state blended statutory rate of approximately 29.6% are due to the proportion of non-taxable revenues, non-deductible expenses, and benefits from tax credits as compared to the levels of pre-tax earnings.

### Financial Condition

For financial reporting purposes, the Company does not separately track the changes in assets and liabilities based on branch location or regional geography. The following is a comparison of the quarterly change in certain assets and liabilities:

*(dollars in thousands)*

| Ending balances | June 30, 2024 | March 31, 2024 | $ Change | Annualized % Change |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Total assets | $9,741,399 | $9,813,767 | $(72,368) | (2.9)% |
| Total loans | 6,742,526 | 6,800,695 | (58,169) | (3.4) |
| Total investments | 2,086,090 | 2,221,555 | (135,465) | (24.4) |
| Total deposits | 8,050,230 | 7,987,658 | 62,572 | 3.1 |
| Total other borrowings | 247,773 | 392,409 | (144,636) | (147.4) |

51

Loans outstanding decreased by $58.2 million or 3.4% on an annualized basis during the quarter ended June 30, 2024. During the quarter, loan originations/draws totaled approximately $310.1 million while payoffs/repayments of loans totaled $368.7 million, which compares to originations/draws and payoffs/repayments during the trailing quarter ended of $325.5 million and $321.3 million, respectively. Origination volume activity levels remain slightly lower relative to the comparative period in 2023 due in part to disciplined pricing and underwriting, as well as decreased borrower demand given economic uncertainties. The increase in payoffs/repayments as compared to the trailing quarter was spread amongst numerous borrowers, regions and loan types.

Investment security balances decreased $135.5 million or 24.4% on an annualized basis as a result of net prepayments, and maturities, collectively totaling approximating $164.0 million and, to a lesser extent, sales totaling $28.6 million, partially offset by security purchases totaling $53.5 million, in addition to net increases in the market value of securities of $4.1 million. Investment security purchases were comprised of floating rate instruments tied to SOFR with an initial weighted average coupon of 6.77% and a weighted average life of 4.7 years. Investment security sales were primarily comprised of fixed rate instruments with a weighted average coupon of 2.39% and a weighted average life of 3.8 years. While management intends to primarily utilize cash flows from the investment security portfolio and organic deposit growth to support loan growth, excess liquidity will be utilized for purchases of investment securities to support net interest income growth and net interest margin expansion.

Deposit balances increased by $62.6 million or 3.1% annualized during the quarter, led by growth within time deposits.

Other borrowings totaled $247.8 million at June 30, 2024, representing a net decrease of $144.6 million from the trailing quarter. This quarter over quarter decrease was facilitated by proceeds from the sale, call or maturity of investment securities, and growth in deposits.

The following is a comparison of the year over year change in certain assets and liabilities:

*(dollars in thousands)*

| Ending balances | As of June 30, 2024 | 2023 | $ Change | % Change |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Total assets | $9,741,399 | $9,853,421 | $(112,022) | (1.1)% |
| Total loans | 6,742,526 | 6,520,740 | 221,786 | 3.4 |
| Total investments | 2,086,090 | 2,485,378 | (399,288) | (16.1) |
| Total deposits | 8,050,230 | 8,095,365 | (45,135) | (0.6) |
| Total other borrowings | 247,773 | 392,714 | (144,941) | (36.9) |

Loan balances increased as a result of organic activities by approximately $221.8 million or 3.4% during the twelve-month period ending June 30, 2024. Over the same period deposit balances have declined by $45.1 million or 0.6%. The Company has offset these declines through the deployment of excess cash balances and maturity or sale of investment security balances.

### Investment Securities

Investment securities available for sale decreased $211.7 million to $1.9 billion as of June 30, 2024, compared to December 31, 2023. The decrease is attributed to net prepayments, and maturities, collectively totaling approximating $221.7 million and, to a lesser extent, sales totaling $28.6 million, partially offset by security purchases totaling $53.5 million, in addition to net decreases in the market value of securities of $11.8 million. Proceeds from the sale of available for sale investment securities totaled $28.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, resulting in gross realized losses of $2.9 million. The following table presents the available for sale debt securities portfolio by major type as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

| Total debt securities held to maturity | $122,673 | 100.0% | $133,494 | 100.0% |

Investment securities held to maturity decreased $10.8 million to $122.7 million as of June 30, 2024, as compared to December 31, 2023. This decrease is attributable to calls and principal repayments of $10.7 million, and amortization of net purchase premiums of $0.1 million.

### Loans

The Company focuses its primary lending activities in six principal areas: commercial real estate loans, consumer loans, commercial and industrial loans, construction loans, agriculture production loans and leases. The interest rates charged for the loans made by the Company vary with the degree of risk, the size and duration of the loans, the borrower’s relationship with the Company and prevailing money market rates indicative of the Company’s cost of funds.

The majority of the Company’s loans are direct loans made to individuals, and local or regional businesses which service a variety of industries. The Company relies substantially on local promotional activity and personal contacts by bank officers, directors and employees to compete with other financial institutions. The Company makes loans to borrowers whose applications include a sound purpose, a viable repayment source and a plan of repayment established at inception and generally backed by a secondary source of repayment.

The following table shows the Company’s loan balances, net of deferred loan costs and discounts, as of the dates indicated:

Nonperforming assets decreased during the three months ended June 30, 2024 by $1.5 million or 4.0% to $35.3 million compared to $36.7 million at March 31, 2024. The decrease in nonperforming assets during the second quarter of 2024 was primarily the result of nonperforming loan pay-downs and upgrades, which totaled $3.0 million during the quarter, as well as $1.5 million in charge-offs. Management is actively engaged in the collection and recovery efforts for all nonperforming assets and believes that the loan loss reserves associated with these loans is sufficient as of June 30, 2024.

Nonperforming assets increased during the six months ended June 30, 2024 by $0.7 million or 1.9% to $35.3 million compared to $34.6 million at December 31, 2023. The increase in nonperforming assets during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was primarily the result of nonperforming loan increases/down-grades, which totaled $9.4 million.

### Loan charge-offs during the three and six months ended June 30, 2024

In the second quarter of 2024, the Company recorded $1.5 million in loan charge-offs and $0.1 million in deposit overdraft charge-offs less $0.3 million in loan recoveries and $0.03 million in deposit overdraft recoveries, which collectively resulted in $1.2 million in net charge-offs. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded $2.7 million in loan charge-offs and $0.2 million in deposit overdraft charge-offs less $0.5 million in loan recoveries and $0.1 million in deposit overdraft recoveries, which collectively resulted in $2.4 million in net charge-offs.

### The Components of the Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans

The following table sets forth the allowance for credit losses for loans as of the dates indicated:

*(in thousands)*

| Allowance for credit losses: | June 30, 2024 | December 31, 2023 | June 30, 2023 |

For additional information regarding the allowance for loan losses, including changes in specific, formula, and environmental factors allowance categories, see “*Asset Quality and Loan Loss Provisioning”* at “*Results of Operations”*, above. Based on the current conditions of the loan portfolio, management believes that the $123.5 million allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2024 is adequate to absorb probable losses inherent in the Bank’s loan portfolio. No assurance can be given, however, that adverse economic conditions or other circumstances will not result in increased losses in the portfolio.

See Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements at Item 1 of Part I of this report for information about the Company’s commitments and contingencies including off-balance-sheet arrangements.

### Capital Resources

The current and projected capital position of the Company and the impact of capital plans and long-term strategies are reviewed regularly by Management.

On February 25, 2021 the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to 2,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock (the 2021 Repurchase Plan), which approximated 6.7% of the shares outstanding as of the approval date. The actual timing of any share repurchases will be determined by the Company's management and therefore the total value of the shares to be purchased under the 2021 Repurchase Plan is subject to change. The Company may repurchase its outstanding shares of common stock from time to time in open market or privately-negotiated transactions, including block trades, or pursuant to 10b5-1 trading plans. The 2021 Repurchase Plan has no expiration date (in accordance with applicable laws and regulations).

During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company repurchased 244,992 and 344,324 shares with market values of $9.1 million and $12.5 million, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company repurchased 150,000 shares with a market value of $7.0 million. During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the Company repurchased 244,992 shares of common stock at an average price of $37.04 per share or 104% of the book value per share as of June 30, 2024. In addition, the Company’s Tier 1 common equity and tangible capital ratios increased to 12.7% and 9.1%, respectively as of June 30, 2024, compared to 12.2% and 8.8%, respectively, as of December 31, 2023.

Total shareholders' equity increased by $12.0 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, as net income of $29.0 million and a $2.9 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive losses was partially offset by cash dividend payments on common stock of approximately $10.9 million and share repurchases totaling $9.1 million. As a result, the Company’s book value grew to $35.62 per share at June 30, 2024, compared to $32.86 at June 30, 2023. The Company’s tangible book value per share, a non-GAAP measure, calculated by subtracting goodwill and other intangible assets from total shareholders’ equity and dividing that sum by total shares outstanding, was $26.13 per share at June 30, 2024, as compared to $23.30 at June 30, 2023. As noted above, changes in the fair value of available-for-sale investment securities, net of deferred taxes continue to create moderate levels of volatility in tangible book value per share.

### Current Year Balance Sheet Change

|  | June 30, 2024 Ratio | Minimum Regulatory Requirement | December 31, 2023 Ratio | Minimum Regulatory Requirement |
| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: | ---: |
| Total risk based capital | 15.2% | 10.5% | 14.7% | 10.5% |
| Tier I capital | 13.4% | 8.5% | 13.0% | 8.5% |
| Common equity Tier 1 capital | 12.7% | 7.0% | 12.2% | 7.0% |
| Leverage | 11.2% | 4.0% | 10.7% | 4.0% |

See Note 10 and Note 16 to the condensed consolidated financial statements at Item 1 of Part I of this report for additional information about the Company’s capital resources.

As of June 30, 2024, we had an effective shelf registration statement on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission that allows us to issue various types of debt securities, as well as common stock, preferred stock, warrants, depository shares representing fractional interest in shares of preferred stock, purchase contracts and units from time to time in one or more offerings. Each issuance under the shelf registration statement will require the filing of a prospectus supplement identifying the amount and terms of the securities to be issued. The registration statement does not limit the amount of securities that may be issued thereunder. Our ability to issue securities is subject to market conditions and other factors including, in the case of our debt securities, our credit ratings and compliance with current and prospective covenants in credit agreements.

### Liquidity

The Company's primary sources of liquidity include the following for the periods indicated:

*(dollars in thousands)*

|  | June 30, 2024 | December 31, 2023 |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| Borrowing capacity at correspondent banks and FRB | $2,998,009 | $2,921,525 |
| Less: borrowings outstanding | (225,000) | (600,000) |
| Unpledged available-for-sale investment securities | 1,285,185 | 1,558,506 |
| Cash held or in transit with FRB | 163,809 | 51,253 |
| Total primary liquidity | $4,222,003 | $3,931,284 |

At June 30, 2024, the Company's primary sources of liquidity represented 52% of total deposits and 170% of estimated total uninsured (excluding collateralized municipal deposits and intercompany balances) deposits, respectively. As secondary sources of liquidity, the Company's held-to-maturity investment securities had a fair value of $113.7 million, including approximately $9.0 million in net unrealized losses.

The Company’s profitability during the first six months of 2024 generated cash flows from operations of $56.9 million compared to $56.2 million during the first six months of 2023. Net cash from investing activities was $255.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to net cash from investing activities of $89.8 million during the six months ending 2023. Financing activities used $204.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to $134.4 million during the six months ended June 30, 2023.

The changes in contractual obligations of the Company and Bank, to include but not limited to term subordinated debt, operating leases, deferred compensation and supplemental retirement plans as well as off-balance sheet commitments such as unfunded loans and letters of credit. These contractual obligations are otherwise consistent with similar balances or totals as of December 31, 2023.

The Company is dependent upon the payment of cash dividends by the Bank to service its commitments, which have historically included dividends to shareholders, scheduled debt service payments, and general operations. Shareholder dividends are expected to continue subject to the Board’s discretion and management's continuing evaluation of capital levels, earnings, asset quality and other factors. The Company expects that the cash dividends paid by the Bank to the Company will be sufficient to cover the Company's cash flow needs. However, the Company and its ability to generate liquidity through either the issuance of stock or debt, also serves as a potential source of strength for the Bank. Dividends paid by the Company to holders of its common stock used $21.9 million and $19.9 million of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The Company’s liquidity is dependent on dividends received from the Bank. Dividends from the Bank are subject to certain regulatory restrictions.

### TRICO BANCSHARES—NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(Unaudited. Dollars in thousands)

In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), this filing contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management has presented these non-GAAP financial measures in this filing because it believes that they provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in the Company's core operations reflected in the current quarter's results, and facilitate the comparison of our performance with the performance of our peers. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for any analysis based on GAAP. Where applicable, comparable earnings information using GAAP financial measures is also presented. Because not all companies use the same calculations, our presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures as calculated by other companies. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures, see the tables below:

## Market risk

As filed, 3,603 characters.

Based on the changes in interest rates as well as the mix shift of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities occurring subsequent to December 31, 2023, the following update of the Company’s assessment of market risk as of June 30, 2024 is being provided. These updates and changes should be read in conjunction with the additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.

As of June 30, 2024, the Company's loan portfolio consisted of approximately $6.8 billion in outstanding principal with a weighted average coupon rate of 5.47%. During the three-month periods ending June 30, 2024, March 31, 2024, and June 30, 2023, the weighted average coupon on loan production in the quarter was 7.98%, 7.78% and 6.85%, respectively. Included in the June 30, 2024 total loans are adjustable rate loans totaling $4.2 billion, of which, $921.0 million are considered floating based on the Wall Street Prime index. In addition, the Company holds certain investment securities with fair values totaling $339.9 million which are subject to repricing on not less than a quarterly basis.

Management funds the acquisition of nearly all of its earning assets through its core deposit gathering activities. As of June 30, 2024, non-interest bearing deposits represented 31.8% of total deposits. Further, during the quarter ended June 30, 2024, the cost of interest bearing deposits were 2.1% and the cost of total deposits were 1.45%. With the intent of stabilizing or increasing net interest income, management intends to continue to deploy its excess liquidity and/or seek to migrate certain earning assets into higher yielding categories. However, in situations where deposit balances contract, management may rely upon various borrowing facilities or the use of brokered deposits. Through the second quarter of 2024 and during the entire 2023 year, management did not utilize any brokered deposits. Management did however utilize borrowing lines from the FHLB, both overnight and term structured up to 12 months, due to expectations that such borrowings will be needed through the remainder of the year and into 2025 to support earning asset strategies.

As of June 30, 2024 the overnight Federal funds rate, the rate primarily used in these interest rate shock scenarios, was 5.33%. These scenarios assume that 1) interest rates increase or decrease evenly (in a “ramp” fashion) over a twelve-month period and remain at the new levels beyond twelve months or 2) that interest rates change instantaneously (“shock”). The simulation results shown below assume no changes in the structure of the Company’s balance sheet over the twelve months being measured.

The following table summarizes the estimated effect on net interest income and market value of equity to changing interest rates as measured against a flat rate (no interest rate change) instantaneous parallel shock scenario over a twelve month period utilizing a interest sensitivity (GAP) analysis based on the Company's specific mix of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities as of June 30, 2024.

Interest Rate Risk Simulations:

| Change in Interest Rates (Basis Points) | Estimated Change in Net Interest Income (NII) (as % of NII) | Estimated Change in Market Value of Equity (MVE) (as % of MVE) |
| --- | ---: | ---: |
| +300 (shock) | (8.0)% | (6.3)% |
| +200 (shock) | (5.5)% | (4.4)% |
| +100 (shock) | (2.5)% | (1.3)% |
| + 0 (flat) | — | — |
| -100 (shock) | 0.9% | (2.8)% |
| -200 (shock) | 1.1% | (8.7)% |
| -300 (shock) | 1.5% | (17.5)% |

## Controls and procedures

As filed, 1,277 characters.

The Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of June 30, 2024. Disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), are controls and procedures designed to reasonably assure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported on a timely basis. Disclosure controls are also designed to reasonably assure that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2024.

During the three months ended June 30, 2024, there were no changes in our internal controls or in other factors that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal controls over financial reporting.
