Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Certain of our accounting policies are important to the portrayal of our financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates associated with these policies are susceptible to material changes as a result of changes in facts and circumstances which could include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, changes in the performance of the economy and changes in the financial condition of borrowers. The following represents our critical accounting policy:

Allowance for Credit Losses, or ACL, on Loans. The ACL on loans held for investment reflects our estimate of credit losses that will result from the inability of our borrowers to make required loan payments. We charge off loans against the ACL and subsequent recoveries, if any, increase the ACL when they are recognized. We use a systematic methodology to determine our ACL for loans held for investment and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. The ACL on loans held for investment is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loan portfolio. The estimate of our ACL on loans held for investment involves a high degree of judgment including consideration of the effects of past events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts on the collectability of the loan portfolio. We recognize in net income the amount needed to adjust the ACL on loans held for investment and certain off-balance sheet credit exposures for management’s current estimate of ECLs. Our ACL on loans held for investment is calculated using collectively evaluated and individually evaluated loans.

GAAP Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We believe the non-GAAP financial measures included within this report provide useful information to management and investors that is supplementary to our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows computed in accordance with US GAAP; however, we acknowledge that our non-GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations. The following reconciliation tables provide detailed analyses of these non-GAAP financial measures.

Set forth below is a reconciliation to US GAAP of tangible book value and tangible book value per share:

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026

Net Income. Net income totaled $15.6 million, or $0.94 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $16.8 million, or $0.99 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 6.8%. The results for the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2026 were negatively impacted by a $784,000 decrease in noninterest income and a $1.0 million increase in noninterest expense due to a $1.1 million loss resulting from the redemption of junior subordinated debt securities, partially offset by a $1.0 million increase in net interest income. Details of the changes in the various components of net income are further discussed below.

Net Interest Income. The following table presents the distribution of average assets, liabilities and equity, as well as interest income earned on average interest-earning assets and interest expense paid on average interest-bearing liabilities. All average balances are daily average balances. Nonaccruing loans have been included in the table as loans carrying a zero yield.

(Dollars in thousands)

(1) Average loans receivable balances include loans held for sale and nonaccruing loans.

(2) Average other interest-earning assets consist of FRB stock, FHLB stock, SBIC investments and deposits in other banks.

(3) Net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets.

(4) Tax-equivalent results include adjustments to interest income of $458 and $435 for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026, respectively, calculated based on a combined federal and state tax rate of 23%.

Total interest and dividend income for the three months ended June 30, 2026 decreased $324,000, or 0.5%, when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2026. A decline of $605,000 in accretion income was the primary driver of this change, partially offset by the impact of an additional day in the current quarter.

Total interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026 decreased $1.3 million, or 7.6%, when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2026. A decline of $1.3 million, or 7.5%, in deposit interest expense drove this change, the result of a decline in both the average balance of and rate paid on certificate accounts, specifically brokered deposits.

The following table shows the effects that changes in average balances (volume), including differences in the number of days in the periods compared, and average interest rates (rate) had on the interest earned on interest-earning assets and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities:

(Dollars in thousands)

Provision for Credit Losses. The provision for credit losses is the amount of expense that, based on our judgment, is required to maintain the ACL at an appropriate level under the current expected credit losses model.

The following table presents a breakdown of the components of the provision for credit losses:

(Dollars in thousands)

For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, the "loans" portion of the provision for credit losses was primarily the result of the following, offset by net charge-offs of $1.8 million during the quarter:

• $0.2 million provision driven by changes in the loan mix.
• $0.4 million benefit due to changes in the projected economic forecast, specifically the national unemployment rate, and changes in qualitative adjustments.
• $0.6 million decrease in specific reserves on individually evaluated loans.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2026, the "loans" portion of the provision for credit losses was primarily the result of the following, offset by net charge-offs of $1.8 million during the quarter:

• $0.5 million benefit driven by changes in the loan mix.
• $0.2 million provision due to changes in the projected economic forecast, specifically the national unemployment rate, and changes in qualitative adjustments.
• $0.6 million decrease in specific reserves on individually evaluated loans.

For the quarters ended June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026, the amounts recorded for off-balance sheet credit exposure were the result of changes in the balance of loan commitments, loan mix, projected economic forecast and qualitative allocations as outlined above.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2026 decreased $784,000, or 7.8%, when compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2026. Changes in the components of noninterest income are discussed below:

(Dollars in thousands)

• Loan income and fees: The decrease was primarily the result of $251,000 less in prepayment penalties, partially offset by a $68,000 increase in other servicing fees.
• Gain on sale of loans held for sale: The decrease was primarily driven by a drop in the sales volume of HELOC loans originated for sale, partially offset by an increase in the sales volume of residential mortgage loans. There were $17.2 million of HELOCs originated for sale which were sold during the current quarter with gains of $93,000 compared to $103.0 million sold with gains of $934,000 in the prior quarter. There were $39.9 million of residential mortgage loans sold for gains of $481,000 during the current quarter compared to $23.3 million sold with gains of $431,000 in the prior quarter. There were $15.3 million in sales of the guaranteed portion of SBA commercial loans with gains of $1.3 million for the current quarter compared to $16.4 million sold and gains of $1.2 million for the prior quarter. Lastly, our hedging of mandatory commitments on the residential mortgage loan pipeline resulted in a net gain of $4,000 for the current quarter compared to $68,000 for the prior quarter.
• Operating lease income: The decrease was the result of a $402,000 increase in losses upon contract termination in addition to a $83,000 decrease in contract earnings.
• Gain on sale of premises and equipment: In both periods presented, gains were recognized on the sale of excess real estate.
• Other: The decrease was primarily driven by a $108,000 reduction in investment services income quarter-over-quarter.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2026 increased $1.0 million, or 3.0%, when compared to the three months ended March 31, 2026. Changes in the components of noninterest expense are discussed below:

(Dollars in thousands)

• Marketing and advertising: The increase was associated with the launch of online deposit account opening.
• Loss on redemption of junior subordinated debt securities: We previously established a fair value mark (discount) on the junior subordinated debt securities assumed through our merger with Quantum Capital Corp. and had been accreting the discount into interest expense. Associated with our redemption of the debt instruments in the current quarter, we wrote-off the remaining discount as an expense.

Income Taxes. The amount of income tax expense is influenced by the amount of pre-tax income, tax-exempt income, changes in the statutory rate and the effect of changes in valuation allowances maintained against deferred tax benefits. The effective tax rates for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026 were 20.4% and 20.1%, respectively.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025

Net Income. Net income totaled $32.4 million, or $1.93 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $31.7 million, or $1.84 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2025, an increase of $653,000, or 2.1%. The results for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the prior year were positively impacted by a $2.5 million increase in net interest income, a $1.6 million decrease in the provision for credit losses, and a $1.1 million increase in noninterest income, partially offset by a $4.7 million increase in noninterest expense. Details of the changes in the various components of net income are further discussed below.

Total interest and dividend income for the six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased $4.6 million, or 3.6%, when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. A decline of $3.8 million, or 3.2%, in interest income drove this change, primarily due to the impact of decreases in the federal funds rate upon loan yields. Accretion income on acquired loans of $1.1 million and $1.3 million was recognized during the same periods, respectively, and was included in loan interest income.

Total interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2026 decreased $7.1 million, or 17.6%, when compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. A decline of $6.8 million, or 17.3%, in deposit interest expense drove this change, the result of a decline in the average balance of certificate accounts, specifically brokered deposits, in addition to a decline in the average cost of funds across funding categories.

(Dollars in thousands)

For the six months ended June 30, 2026, the "loans" portion of the provision for credit losses was the result of the following, offset by net charge-offs of $3.7 million during the period:

• $0.2 million benefit driven by changes in the loan mix.
• $0.3 million benefit due to changes in the projected economic forecast, specifically the national unemployment rate, and changes in qualitative adjustments.

• $0.9 million benefit driven by changes in the loan mix.
• $1.6 million benefit due to changes in qualitative adjustments, partially offset by a slight worsening of the projected economic forecast, specifically the national unemployment rate. Of note, we released the $2.2 million qualitative allocation previously established for the potential impact of Hurricane Helene upon our loan portfolio which had been established in the quarter ended September 30, 2024.
• $1.4 million increase in specific reserves on individually evaluated loans.

For the six months ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025, the amounts recorded for off-balance sheet credit exposure were the result of changes in the balance of loan commitments, loan mix, projected economic forecast and qualitative allocations as outlined above.

(Dollars in thousands)

• Gain on sale of loans held for sale: The increase was primarily driven by an increase in the sales volume of the guaranteed portion of SBA commercial loans, partially offset by a reduction in the sales volume of HELOC loans. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, there were $31.7 million of sales of the guaranteed portion of SBA commercial loans with gains of $2.5 million compared to $11.9 million sold with gains of $936,000 for the corresponding period in the prior year. There were $63.2 million of residential mortgage loans sold during the current period for gains of $912,000 compared to $49.1 million sold with gains of $1.0 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. There were $120.2 million of HELOCs originated for sale which were sold during the current period with gains of $1.0 million compared to $198.2 million sold with gains of $2.0 million for the corresponding period in the prior year. Lastly, our hedging of mandatory commitments on the residential mortgage loan pipeline resulted in a net gain of $72,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $40,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
• Gain on sale of branches: During the prior year we completed the sale of our two Knoxville, Tennessee branches, recognizing a gain of $1.4 million, with no similar activity occurring in the current year.
• Gain on sale of premises and equipment: In both periods presented, gains were recognized on the sale of excess parcels of real estate.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2026 increased $4.7 million, or 7.6%, when compared to the same period last year. Changes in the components of noninterest expense are discussed below:

(Dollars in thousands)

• Salaries and employee benefits: The increase was primarily the result of increases in both pay and incentive compensation.
• Computer services: The increase year-over-year reflects the Company's further investment in both our internal- and external-facing technological capabilities.
• Operating lease depreciation expense: The decrease was due to a decline in the population of operating lease contracts (assets being depreciated) year-over-year.
• Core deposit intangible amortization: The intangible recorded associated with the Quantum merger is being amortized on an accelerated basis, so the rate of amortization slowed year-over-year.
• Loss on redemption of junior subordinated debt securities: See explanation in the "Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026 – Noninterest Expense" section above.

Income Taxes. The amount of income tax expense is influenced by the amount of pre-tax income, tax-exempt income, changes in the statutory rate and the effect of changes in valuation allowances maintained against deferred tax benefits. The effective tax rates for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were 20.3% and 21.1%, respectively.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025

General. Total assets decreased by $105.4 million to $4.4 billion and total liabilities decreased by $105.3 million to $3.8 billion at June 30, 2026 as compared to December 31, 2025. These changes can be traced to the use of existing liquidity and the proceeds from loan sales to offset a $103.2 million decline in deposits. The decrease in deposits was the result of a $134.6 million reduction in brokered deposits, partially offset by an increase of $31.5 million in all other deposit categories.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Total cash and cash equivalents decreased $52.1 million, or 16.1%, to $272.5 million at June 30, 2026 from $324.7 million at December 31, 2025.

Certificates of Deposit in Other Banks. Total certificates of deposit in other banks decreased $7.2 million, or 38.3%, to $11.6 million at June 30, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025.

Debt Securities Available for Sale. Debt securities available for sale increased $3.3 million, or 2.3%, to $145.9 million at June 30, 2026 from $142.5 million at December 31, 2025. Outside of fluctuations in value, the changes between periods were the result of $26.7 million in purchases, partially offset by $22.5 million in proceeds from the maturity, call and paydown of securities. All purchases were MBS and consistent with the composition of the existing securities held in the portfolio.

Loans Held for Sale. Loans held for sale decreased $84.8 million, or 41.2%, to $120.9 million at June 30, 2026 from $205.7 million at December 31, 2025. This was driven by a decrease of $81.1 million, or 49.8%, in HELOCs held for sale due to loan sales during the current period.

Loans, Net of Deferred Loan Fees and Costs. Loans held for investment totaled $3.6 billion at June 30, 2026, an increase of $44.1 million, or 1.2%, compared to the balance as of December 31, 2025. The following table illustrates the changes within the portfolio:

Asset Quality. The following table sets forth the composition of nonperforming assets, made up of nonaccrual loans and repossessed assets, across our asset categories.

(Dollars in thousands)

SBA loans made up 55.4%, 48.3% and 46.5% of total nonperforming assets at June 30, 2026, March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The increase during the current six month period was primarily the result of a management decision to accelerate the repurchase of the sold portion of nonperforming SBA loans (fully guaranteed portion) to simplify the workout process.

Classified assets decreased by $1.5 million, or 2.0%, to $70.7 million, or 1.59% of total assets, as of June 30, 2026 when compared to the balance of $72.2 million, or 1.65% of total assets, as of March 31, 2026. Classified assets increased by $4.5 million, or 6.9%, to $70.7 million, or 1.59% of total assets, as of June 30, 2026 when compared to the balance of $66.2 million, or 1.46% of total assets, as of December 31, 2025. SBA loans made up the largest portion of classified assets at $32.3 million and $27.3 million, respectively, as of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, of which $24.5 million and $19.8 million, respectively, was fully guaranteed. The remaining population of classified assets as of June 30, 2026 included $10.5 million of HELOCs, $10.0 million of 1-4 family residential real estate loans and $7.0 million of equipment finance loans (concentrated in the transportation sector).

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans. The ACL on loans was $39.8 million, or 1.10% of total loans, at June 30, 2026 compared to $41.5 million, or 1.16% of total loans, at December 31, 2025. The drivers of this change are discussed in the "Comparison of Results of Operations for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2026 and June 30, 2025 – Provision for Credit Losses" section above.

The following table summarizes the distribution of the ACL by loan category at the dates indicated.

(Dollars in thousands)

Net loan charge-offs totaled $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $3.3 million for the same period last year. Net charge-offs were concentrated within our equipment finance portfolio, primarily related to over-the-road truck loans, where we recognized net charge-offs of $2.4 million and $2.1 million for the same periods, respectively. Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans were 0.19% for the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to 0.18% for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Deposits. The following table summarizes the composition of our deposit portfolio as of the dates indicated:

(Dollars in thousands)

The decrease in deposits was the result of a $134.6 million reduction in brokered deposits, partially offset by an increase of $31.5 million in all other deposit categories.

Stockholders' Equity. Stockholders' equity decreased $90,000, to $600.6 million at June 30, 2026 as compared to December 31, 2025. Activity within stockholders' equity included $32.4 million in net income and $4.0 million in share-based compensation and stock option exercises, partially offset by $4.6 million in cash dividends declared and $30.2 million in stock repurchases. In addition, accumulated other comprehensive income declined by $1.0 million due to an increase in the unrealized loss on available for sale securities due to higher market interest rates between December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2026.

Liquidity Management

Management maintains a liquidity position that it believes will adequately provide for funding of loan demand and deposit run-off that may occur in the normal course of business. We rely on a number of different sources in order to meet our expected liquidity demands. The primary sources are increases in deposit accounts, wholesale borrowings and cash flows from payments on the loan and securities portfolios.

In addition to these primary sources of funds, management has several secondary sources available to meet potential funding requirements. All qualifying one-to-four family loans, HELOCs, commercial real estate loans, multifamily loans and FHLB of Atlanta stock are pledged as collateral to secure outstanding FHLB advances while commercial construction loans, indirect auto loans, and equipment and municipal leases are pledged as collateral to secure outstanding FRB advances. At June 30, 2026, the Company had the ability to borrow $373.4 million through additional FHLB advances and $30.6 million through the unused portion of a line of credit with the FRB. At this same date, the Company maintained revolving lines of credit with four unaffiliated banks which totaled $135.0 million, all of which was unused.

We also classify our securities portfolio as available for sale, providing an additional source of liquidity. Management believes that our securities portfolio is of high quality, of short duration, and the securities would therefore be readily marketable. In addition, we have historically sold fixed-rate mortgage loans in the secondary market to reduce interest rate risk and to create still another source of liquidity. From time to time we also utilize brokered time deposits to supplement our other sources of funds. Brokered time deposits are obtained by utilizing an outside broker that is paid a fee. This funding requires advance notification to structure the type of deposit desired by us. Brokered deposits can vary in term from one month to several years and have the benefit of being a source of longer-term funding. We also utilize brokered deposits to help manage interest rate risk by extending the term to repricing of our liabilities, enhance our liquidity and fund asset growth. Brokered deposits are typically from outside our primary market areas, and our brokered deposit levels may vary from time to time depending on competitive interest rate conditions and other factors. At June 30, 2026, brokered deposits totaled $136.7 million, or 3.8% of total deposits.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments, such as overnight deposits and federal funds. On a longer term basis, we maintain a strategy of investing in various lending products and debt securities, including MBS. We are a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for our own liquidity and pay our own operating expenses. Our primary source of funds consists of dividends or capital distributions from the Bank, although there are regulatory restrictions on the ability of the Bank to pay dividends. At June 30, 2026, we (on an unconsolidated basis) had liquid assets of $6.6 million.

At the Bank level, we use our sources of funds primarily to meet our ongoing commitments, pay maturing deposits and fund withdrawals and to fund loan commitments. At June 30, 2026, the total approved loan commitments and unused lines of credit outstanding amounted to $296.2 million and $793.6 million, respectively. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at June 30, 2026 totaled $722.6 million. It is management's policy to manage deposit rates to be competitive with other local financial institutions. Based on this strategy, we believe that a majority of maturing deposits will be retained.

Off-Balance Sheet Activities

In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that are not recorded in our financial statements, mainly to manage customers' requests for funding. These transactions primarily take the form of loan commitments and lines of credit and involve varying degrees of off-balance sheet credit, interest rate and liquidity risks. For further information, see "Note 11 – Commitments and Contingencies" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Capital Resources

HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. is a bank holding company subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve. As a bank holding company, we are subject to capital adequacy requirements of the Federal Reserve under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended and the regulations of the Federal Reserve. The Company's subsidiary, the Bank, an FDIC-insured, North Carolina state-chartered bank and a member of the Federal Reserve System, is supervised and regulated by the Federal Reserve and the NCCOB and is subject to minimum capital requirements applicable to state member banks established by the Federal Reserve that are calculated in a manner similar to those applicable to bank holding companies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by bank regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's financial statements.

Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.

At June 30, 2026, HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. and the Bank each exceeded all regulatory capital requirements. Consistent with the Company's goals to operate a sound and profitable organization, its policy is for the Bank to maintain a “well-capitalized” status under the regulatory capital categories of the Federal Reserve. The Bank was categorized as "well-capitalized" at June 30, 2026 under applicable regulatory requirements.

HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. and the Bank's actual and required minimum capital amounts and ratios are as follows:

(Dollars in thousands)

In addition to the minimum CET1, Tier 1 and total risk-based capital ratios, both HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. and the Bank have to maintain a capital conservation buffer consisting of additional CET1 capital of more than 2.50% above the required minimum levels in order to avoid limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases, and paying discretionary bonuses based on percentages of eligible retained income that could be utilized for such actions. As of June 30, 2026, the Company's and Bank's risk-based capital exceeded the required capital contribution buffer.

Dividends paid by HomeTrust Bank are limited, without prior regulatory approval, to current year earnings and earnings less dividends paid during the preceding two years.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures: An evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Act")) as of June 30, 2026, was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and several other members of the Company's senior management. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures in effect as of June 30, 2026, were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Act is: (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company's management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.

The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls may be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by override of the control. The design of any control procedure also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

Changes in Internal Controls: There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2026 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
