See reconciliation on Note 3 to the Selected Quarterly Information. Income Statement Net Income: Net income for the second quarter of 2024 was $8.6 million , increasing from $7.7 million in the first quarter of 2024 and $6.0 million in the second quarter of 2023. As compared to the prior quarter, net income benefited from an increase of $0.7 million in net interest income as well as a decrease in non-interest expense of $0.7 million . As compared to the second quarter of 2023, net interest income increased $1.4 million . Non-interest income increased $1.0 million and non-interest expense decreased $0.8 million . Net Interest Income: Net interest income for the second quarter of 2024 was $27.2 million , increasing 2.6% from $26.5 million for the first quarter of 2024 and increasing 5.4% from $25.8 million in the second quarter of 2023. Total interest and dividend income was $48.0 million for the second quarter of 2024, an increase from $46.7 million in the first quarter of 2024 and from $40.0 million for the second quarter of 2023. These increases were primarily driven by loan growth and higher loan rates. Interest expense for the second quarter of 2024 was $20.8 million , an increase from $20.2 million for the first quarter of 2024 and from $14.2 million for the second quarter of 2023. The increases for both comparison periods were driven primarily by higher deposit rates and changes in deposit composition. Net Interest Margin: Net interest margin, on an FTE basis, for the second quarter of 2024 was 2.69% compared to 2.62% for the first quarter of 2024 and 2.63% for the second quarter of 2023. The increase in net interest margin compared to the first quarter in 2024 was primarily the result of continued yield expansion on earning assets combined with moderating increase in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. As compared to the second quarter of 2023, the increase in net interest margin was primarily the result of yield on average earning assets increasing at a faster pace than costs of interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin is affected by deposits continuing to migrate to higher costs products, such as money market savings and time deposits. Three Months Ended (Dollars in Thousands) June 30, 2024 March 31, 2024 June 30, 2023 Interest and Dividend Income $ 47,972 $ 46,677 $ 40,013 Interest Expense 20,820 20,222 14,241 Net Interest Income 27,152 26,455 25,772 Average Earning Assets(A) 4,083,813 4,085,398 3,953,642 Average Interest-Bearing Liabilities 3,127,417 3,108,093 2,924,743 Yield on Earning Assets(A) 4.72 % 4.60 % 4.06 % Cost of Interest-Bearing Liabilities 2.68 2.62 1.95 Net Interest Spread 2.04 1.98 2.11 Net Interest Margin 2.67 2.60 2.61 Net Interest Margin - FTE 2.69 2.62 2.63 (A) Includes Nonaccrual Loans. Provision for Credit Losses: For the second quarter of 2024, the provision for credit losses was $0.8 million compared to $0.6 million in the first quarter of 2024 and $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2023. The key drivers for the provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 2024 were loan growth and replenishment of the allowance for charge-offs, partially offset by changes to the economic forecast factors embedded in the credit loss allowance model. Non-Interest Income: Non-interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2024 , was $7.9 million consistent with the first quarter of 2024 and an increase from $6.9 million in the second quarter of 2023 due to the other investment income and a small gain on a sale leaseback transaction. Non-Interest Expense: Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2024 was $23.3 million , a decrease from $24.0 million in the first quarter of 2024 and from $24.1 million for the second quarter of 2023. The decrease from the prior quarter and year was primarily due to elimination of elevated legal and professional expenses related to the delayed filings in 2023. Provision for Income Taxes: The provision for income taxes was 21.2%, or $2.3 million , for the second quarter of 2024, 20.9%, or $2.0 million , for the first quarter of 2024 and 20.9%, or $1.6 million , for the second quarter of 2023. Balance Sheet Total Assets: Total assets were $4.2 billion at June 30, 2024 , a decrease of $89.2 million , or 2.1%, as compared to March 31, 2024 and an increase of $140.8 million , or 3.4%, as compared to June 30, 2023 . For the second quarter of 2024, overall change in balance sheet was attributable to seasonal changes of cash balances offset by growth in the loan portfolio. Investments: Total investments were $556.4 million as of June 30, 2024 , a decrease of $63.6 million , or 10.3%, compared to March 31, 2024 and a decrease of $137.6 million , or 19.8%, compared to June 30, 2023 . The decrease from March 31, 2024 was driven primarily by paydowns and maturities. The change from June 30, 2023 was also driven by paydowns and maturities as well as the fourth quarter 2023 repositioning of the investment portfolio, reducing the portfolio by approximately $25 million at the time of the transaction. There were no credit quality issues related to the investment portfolio. Loans 3 : Total loans reached $3.3 billion as of June 30, 2024 . Loan growth for the second quarter of 2024 was $57.6 million , and $245.3 million since June 30, 2023 . Loan growth was spread across all loan products. Please see the loan detail included in the Consolidated Financial Information table on page 12. Allowance for Credit Losses: The allowance for credit losses was $31.0 million as of June 30, 2024 , which represented 0.94% of loans outstanding, as compared to $31.6 million , or 0.97%, at March 31, 2024 and $31.2 million , or 1.02%, at June 30, 2023 . Net charge-offs, expressed as an annualized percentage of average loans outstanding, were 0.16% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2024 4, as compared to 0.04% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2024 and 0.07% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2023 . Nonperforming assets were $21.3 million as of June 30, 2024 , representing 0.50% of period-end assets, compared to 0.50% at March 31, 2024 and 0.17% at June 30, 2023 . The increase from the second quarter of 2023 was primarily due to one large, well collateralized loan relationship of approximately $15 million , which moved into non-performing status during the fourth quarter of 2023. Deposits: At June 30, 2024 , deposit balances were $3.7 billion , a decrease of $95.4 million from March 31, 2024 and an increase of $181.4 million from June 30, 2023 . The decrease from the first quarter was primarily attributable to the seasonality of municipal deposits, expected to normalize in the third quarter. The increase from June 30, 2023 was partially attributable to $175 million of brokered CDs, primarily used to reduce borrowings by $160 million . Arrow simultaneously entered into three-year interest rate swaps to strategically manage its asset-liability profile and cost of funds. Please refer to page 7 for further details related to deposits. Capital: Total stockholders' equity was $383.0 million at June 30, 2024 , an increase of $5.0 million , or 1.3%, from March 31, 2024 and an increase of $21.6 million , or 6.0%, from the June 30, 2023 level of $361.4 million . The increase in capital from June 30, 2023 , was primarily attributable to net income of $32 million , other comprehensive income of $16 million offset by dividends and stock repurchases of $27 million . Arrow's regulatory capital ratios remained strong. As of June 30, 2024 , Arrow's Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio was 12.88% and Total Risk-Based Capital Ratio was 14.57%. The capital ratios of Arrow's subsidiary banks, Glens Falls National Bank and Trust Company and Saratoga National Bank and Trust Company , continued to exceed the "well capitalized" regulatory standards.

Subsidiary Bank Unification : On July 22 2024 , Arrow received approval from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency to combine its two subsidiary banks, Glens Falls National Bank and Trust Company and Saratoga National Bank and Trust Company , into one bank that will be known as Arrow Bank National Association .

Non-GAAP Financial Measure Reconciliation: Net Interest Margin is the ratio of annualized tax-equivalent netinterest income to average earning assets. This is also a non-GAAP financial measure which Arrow believes provides investors with information that is useful in understanding its financial performance. 6/30/2024 3/31/2024 12/31/2023 9/30/2023 6/30/2023 Interest Income (GAAP) $ 47,972 $ 46,677 $ 44,324 $ 42,117 $ 40,013 Add: Tax-Equivalent adjustment (Non-GAAP) 163 176 184 183 196 Interest Income - Tax Equivalent (Non-GAAP) $ 48,135 $ 46,853 $ 44,508 $ 42,300 $ 40,209 Net Interest Income (GAAP) $ 27,152 $ 26,455 $ 25,613 $ 25,353 $ 25,772 Add: Tax-Equivalent adjustment (Non-GAAP) 163 176 184 183 196 Net Interest Income - Tax Equivalent (Non-GAAP) $ 27,315 $ 26,631 $ 25,797 $ 25,536 $ 25,968 Average Earning Assets $ 4,083,813 $ 4,085,398 $ 4,019,432 $ 3,973,747 $ 3,953,642 Net Interest Margin (Non-GAAP)* 2.69 % 2.62 % 2.55 % 2.55 % 2.63 % 4. Non-GAAP Financial Measure Reconciliation: Financial Institutions often use the "efficiency ratio", a non-GAAP ratio, as a measureof expense control. Arrow believes the efficiency ratio provides investors with information that is useful in understanding its financialperformance. Arrow defines efficiency ratio as the ratio of non-interest expense to net gross income (which equals tax-equivalent net interest income plus non-interest income, as adjusted). 5. For the current quarter, all of the regulatory capital ratios as well as the Total Risk-Weighted Assets are calculated in accordance with bank regulatory capital rules. The June 30, 2024 CET1 ratio listed in the tables (i.e., 12.88%) exceeds the sum of the required minimumCET1 ratio plus the fully phased-in Capital Conservation Buffer (i.e., 7.00%). 6/30/2024 3/31/2024 12/31/2023 9/30/2023 6/30/2023 Total Risk Weighted Assets $ 3,072,922 $ 3,049,525 $ 3,032,188 $ 2,988,438 $ 2,937,837 Common Equity Tier 1 Capital 395,691 391,706 394,166 393,541 389,966 Common Equity Tier 1 Ratio 12.88 % 12.84 % 13.00 % 13.17 % 13.27 % * Quarterly ratios have been annualized.
