 ITEM 1. BUSINESS
 Overview
 Our Company is a technology-driven, diversified financial services company with approximately $22.9 billion in assets and approximately $35.7 billion of assets under custody and/or administration at Axos Clearing LLC ("Axos Clearing"). Our client-centric, technology platforms provide secure and scalable banking, clearing and custody, and investment advisory solutions to retail and business customers. Axos Bank (the "Bank") provides consumer and commercial banking products through its digital online and mobile banking platforms, low-cost distribution channels and affinity partners. Our Bank offers deposit and lending products to customers nationwide including consumer and business checking, savings and time deposit accounts and single family and multifamily residential mortgages, commercial real estate mortgages and loans, fund and lender finance loans, asset-based loans, auto loans, retail and floor plan marine loans and other consumer loans. Our Bank generates non-interest income from consumer and business products, including fees from loans originated for sale, deposit account service fees, prepayment fees, loan servicing fees, as well as technology and payment transaction processing fees. We offer securities products and services to independent registered investment advisors ("RIAs") and introducing broker dealers ("IBDs") through Axos Clearing and Axos Advisor Services ("AAS") and direct-to-consumer securities trading and digital investment management products through Axos Invest, Inc. ("Axos Invest"). AAS and Axos Clearing generate interest and asset- and transaction-based fee income by providing comprehensive securities custody services to RIAs and clearing, stock lending, and margin lending services to IBDs respectively. Axos Invest generates fee income from self-directed securities trading and digital wealth management services. Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol "AX" and is a component of the Russell 2000 Index, the KBW Nasdaq Financial Technology Index, the S&P SmallCap 600 Index, the KBW Nasdaq Financial Technology Index, and the Travillian Tech-Forward Bank Index.
 Segment Information
 We conduct business primarily two operating segments: the Banking Business Segment and the Securities Business Segment. For additional information on our business segments, see Note 22—"Segment Reporting" in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

 BANKING BUSINESS SEGMENT
 We distribute our loan products through our retail, correspondent and wholesale channels. The loans we retain primarily include first mortgages secured by single family real property, multifamily real property and commercial real property, commercial & industrial loans to businesses, automobile loans and certain other consumer loans. We also invest in debt securities to manage liquidity and interest rate risk. Because risk-adjusted returns available on acquired assets may exceed returns available through retaining assets from our origination channels, we have elected to purchase loans and securities from time to time, and may continue to do so in the future. Our deposit products are sourced from a wide range of retail and commercial distribution channels, and our deposits consist of demand, savings and time deposits.
 Loan Portfolio
 Our Single Family - Mortgage & Warehouse loans are primarily secured by first and second liens on 1-4 unit residential properties. Loans include fixed- and adjustable-rate single family residential mortgages and home equity lines of credit. We source Single Family Mortgage loans through mortgage brokers, mortgage bankers, financial institutions and direct to consumer.
 Our adjustable rate loans have initial fixed-rate periods, generally five, seven, or ten years, before starting a variable rate period, and may also have interest rate floors, ceilings and rate change caps.
 We also warehouse certain loans for independent mortgage bankers to sell to investors and government agencies.

 Our Multifamily and Commercial Mortgage loans are primarily secured by multifamily real estate or commercial real estate. Loans often include initial fixed rate periods of either three, five, or seven years before starting a variable rate period, which is based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") or other interest rate indices. Multifamily and Commercial Mortgage loans generally include prepayment protection clauses, interest floors and rate change caps. We source Multifamily and Commercial Mortgage loans through targeted direct-to-borrower original channels and we may sell certain loans to investors.
 Our Commercial Real Estate ("CRE") loans are secured by real estate properties in a variety of structures. CRE loans include our CRE Specialty Loans, Real Estate Lender Finance loans, as well as other CRE loans that may be collateralized directly by real estate or indirectly by loans secured by real estate. We source our CRE loans through direct to borrower origination, brokers, and third-party lenders.
 Our commercial real estate loans generally have a variable rate, based on SOFR, the American Interbank Offered Rate ("Ameribor") or other interest rate indices, as well as prepayment protection clauses, interest rate floors and rate change caps.
 Commercial & Industrial - Non-Real Estate ("Non-RE")
 Our Commercial & Industrial – Non-RE loans are typically secured by commercial assets, including, but not limited to, receivables, inventory, equipment and uniform commercial code ("UCC") all asset filings. Product types include lender finance, asset-based loans, leveraged cash flow loans, insurance premium finance, fund finance, equipment leases, and general commercial and industrial loans. We source Commercial & Industrial – Non-RE loans through direct-to-borrower origination and through third-party sales referrals.
 Our Commercial & Industrial – Non-RE loans generally have a variable rate based on SOFR or other interest rate indices, as well as prepayment protection clauses, interest rate floors and rate change caps. Our equipment leases typically have fixed rates. For certain commercial non-real estate loan products, we typically reduce risk exposure in these loans by entering into a structured facility, under which we take a senior lien position collateralized by the underlying assets at advance rates well below the collateral value. Leveraged cash flow loans rely on free cash flow as a primary repayment source and enterprise value as the secondary repayment source. The liquidation of collateral in the event of a borrower default may be an insufficient source of repayment because accounts or loans receivable may be uncollectible and inventories and equipment may be obsolete or of limited use. We attempt to mitigate these risks through the structuring of these lending products, adhering to underwriting policies in evaluating the management of the business and the credit-worthiness of borrowers and guarantors.
 Our Auto loans are secured by new and used automobiles ("autos"). Loans to subprime borrowers are insured via a default risk mitigation product in which we recoup a large percentage of the deficiency balance on charged off loans. We source auto loans through direct and indirect channels and retain and service all of the auto loans that we originate. Auto loans carry a fixed interest rate for periods ranging from three to eight years.
 Our Consumer loans are fixed rate, unsecured loans to well-qualified, individual borrowers sourced through existing bank customers, lead aggregators and other marketing efforts.
 Loan Underwriting Process and Criteria
 Our loan underwriting policies and procedures are written and adopted by our Bank's Board of Directors and our Bank's Credit Committee. Credit extensions by the Bank conform to the intent and technical requirements of our lending policies and the applicable lending regulations of our federal regulators.
 In the single family loan underwriting process, we consider all relevant factors including the borrower's credit score, credit history, documented income, existing and new debt obligations, the value of the collateral, and other internal and external factors. For all multifamily and commercial real estate loans, we rely primarily on the cash flow from the underlying property as the expected source of repayment. Additionally, the Bank often obtains personal guarantees from all material owners or partners of the borrower. In evaluating multifamily or commercial real estate credit, we consider all relevant factors, including the outside financial assets of the material owners or partners, payment history at the Bank or other financial institutions, and the experience of management and/or ownership with similar properties or businesses. In evaluating the underlying property, we consider the recurring net operating income of the property before debt service and depreciation, the ratio of net operating income to debt service and the ratio of the loan amount to the appraised value. For construction loans, we consider borrower

 experience and may obtain project completion guarantees from our borrowers and require borrowers to fund costs that exceed the initial construction budgets. As part of the underwriting of construction loans, we consider market conditions and perform stress testing to help ensure payoff via refinance or sale will cover any loan proceeds advanced. In underwriting commercial & industrial – non-real estate loans, we primarily consider the borrowers' operating cash flows and the value of underlying collateral. Additionally, in our commercial real estate and commercial & industrial – non-real estate loans we typically take a senior lien position in a structured facility collateralized by the underlying assets.
 For additional information on the Company's loan portfolio, including asset quality and the allowance for credit losses, see Management's Discussion and Analysis — "Financial Condition."
 Available-for-Sale Securities Portfolio
 We buy and sell securities to facilitate liquidity and to manage our interest rate risk. Our investment policy, as established by our Board of Directors, is designed to maintain liquidity and generate a favorable return on investment without incurring undue interest rate risk, credit risk or asset concentration risk. Under our investment policy, the Bank is authorized to invest in agency mortgage-backed obligations issued or fully guaranteed by the United States government, non-agency asset-backed obligations, specific federal agency obligations, municipal obligations, specific time deposits, negotiable certificates of deposit issued by commercial banks and other insured financial institutions, investment grade corporate debt securities and other specified investments.
 We manage the credit risk of our non-agency securities by assessing historic credit performance and any remaining credit enhancements including subordination, over collateralization, excess spread and purchase discounts. Substantially all of our non-agency securities are senior tranches protected from credit losses by subordinated tranches. For additional information on our available-for-sale securities portfolio, refer to Management's Discussion and Analysis—"Critical Accounting Policies—Securities" and Note 3—"Fair Value" and Note 4—"Available-For-Sale Securities" in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
 Deposits
 We generate deposits through a variety of channels, including advertisements, sales teams, software company affiliates, financial advisory firms, affinity partnerships and our lending businesses. Our deposit lines of business include:
 • Commercial deposits, which primarily include deposits sourced from a targeted set of industry verticals:
 Commercial Banking Verticals, which include other middle market industries along with deposit relationships from commercial real estate and commercial & industrial clients
 Specialty Deposit Verticals, which include title, escrow, home owner association ("HOA") and property management, 1031 exchange, trust & estates and payment processors; and
 Software Verticals, which include:
 Axos Fiduciary Services: A full-service fiduciary team catered specifically to support bankruptcy and non-bankruptcy trustees and fiduciaries with their software and banking needs, and
 Zenith Information Systems, Inc.: A business management and entertainment accounting and payroll software offering supported by a dedicated service team.
 • Consumer deposits, which primarily include retail and small business deposits as well as sweep deposits from financial advisory and clearing firms, including Axos Clearing and its business division, AAS.
 We believe our deposit franchise will continue to provide lower all-in funding costs (interest expense plus operating costs) with greater scalability than branch-intensive banking models because the traditional branch model operates with inherently higher fixed operating costs.

 SECURITIES BUSINESS SEGMENT
 The Securities Business Segment provides a wide range of investment and wealth management services to individual and institutional clients, primarily through Axos Clearing and its business division, AAS. At June 30, 2024, we provided services to 304 financial organizations, including correspondent broker-dealers and registered investment advisors.
 Axos Clearing offers fully disclosed clearing services to Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") and SEC registered member firms for trade execution and clearance in addition to back-office services such as recordkeeping, trade reporting, and reorganization assistance. Axos Clearing also provides margin loans, which are collateralized by securities, cash,

 or other acceptable collateral, and conducts securities lending activities, including borrowing and lending securities with other broker-dealers.
 AAS provides RIAs who custody client accounts at Axos with a proprietary turnkey technology platform with up-to-date client account information as well as trading capabilities. This technology platform provides account servicing capabilities for RIAs, including account opening, money movement, transfer of assets, trading, checking status and communicating with our service team. AAS also provides integrations with third-party platforms, which support a variety of advisor needs including client relationship management, portfolio management, trade order management and financial planning.
 Also included in the Securities Business Segment is Axos Invest, which provides retail self-directed and digital advice services.
 The Securities Business Segment generates both fee and interest income and is also a source of low-cost deposits for the Banking Business Segment.

 BORROWINGS
 For additional information on the Company's borrowings, see "Liquidity and Capital Resources" in Part II, Item 7.

 MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS
 From time to time, we undertake acquisitions or similar transactions consistent with our operating and growth strategies. For additional information, see "Mergers and Acquisitions" in Part II, Item 7.

 INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND PROPRIETARY RIGHTS
 As part of our strategy to protect and enhance our intellectual property, we rely on a variety of legal protections, including copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, internet domain names and certain contractual restrictions on solicitation and competition, and disclosure and distribution of confidential and proprietary information. We undertake measures to control access to and/or disclosure of our trade secrets and other confidential and proprietary information. Policing unauthorized use of our intellectual property, trade secrets and other proprietary information is difficult and litigation may be necessary to enforce our intellectual property rights.

 HUMAN CAPITAL
 At June 30, 2024, we had 1,781 full-time employees, which does not include seasonal internship employees. None of our employees are represented by a labor union or are subject to a collective bargaining agreement. We have not experienced any work stoppage and consider our relations with our employees to be satisfactory. We offer market-based, competitive wages and benefits in the market where we compete for talent.
 Our key human capital management objectives are to attract, retain and develop the highest quality talent. To support these objectives, our human resources programs are designed to develop talent to prepare them for critical roles and leadership positions for the future, reward and support employees through competitive pay, benefit and perquisite programs, and evolve and invest in technology, training, tools and resources to enable employees to effectively and efficiently perform their responsibilities and achieve their potential. We believe this is important to recruiting and retaining talent to allow our organization to achieve its goals and objectives.

 COMPETITION
 The market for banking and financial services is intensely competitive, and we expect competition to continue to intensify in the future. The Banking Business Segment attracts deposits through its banking sales force and online acquisition channels. Competition for those deposits comes from a wide variety of other banks, savings institutions, and credit unions. Money market funds, full-service securities brokerage firms and financial technology companies also compete for these funds. The Banking Business Segment competes for these deposits by offering superior service and a variety of deposit accounts at competitive rates. In real estate lending, we compete against traditional real estate lenders, including large and small savings banks, commercial banks, mortgage bankers and mortgage brokers.
 Many of our current and potential competitors have greater brand recognition, longer operating histories, larger customer bases and significantly greater financial, marketing and other resources and are capable of providing strong price and customer service competition. Technological innovation and capabilities, including changes in product delivery systems and web-based tools, continue to contribute to greater competition in domestic and international financial services markets, and larger competitors may be able to allocate more resources to these technology initiatives.
 In our Securities Business Segment, we face significant competition in providing clearing and advisory services based on a number of factors, including price, speed of execution, perceived expertise, quality of advice, reputation, range of services and products, technology, and innovation. There exists significant competition for recruiting and retaining talent. Axos Clearing competes directly with numerous other financial advisory and investment banking firms, broker-dealers and banks, including large national and major regional firms and smaller niche companies, some of whom are not broker-dealers and, therefore, are not subject to the broker-dealer regulatory framework. We separate ourselves from the competition through our excellence in customer service, including a highly attentive and dedicated workforce, while providing an expanding range of clearing and advisory products and services.

 SUPERVISION AND REGULATION
 GENERAL
 We are subject to comprehensive regulation under state and federal laws. This regulation is intended primarily for the protection of our customers, the deposit insurance fund ("DIF") and the U.S. financial system and not for the benefit of our security holders.
 Axos Financial, Inc. is supervised and regulated as a savings and loan holding company that has elected to be treated as a financial holding company by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve"). The Bank, a federal savings association, has elected to operate as a covered savings association, which became effective in August 2024, and is subject to regulation, examination and supervision by the OCC as its primary regulator, and the FDIC as its deposit insurer. The Bank must file reports with the OCC and the FDIC and Axos Financial, Inc. with the Federal Reserve, concerning their activities and financial condition. In addition, the Bank is subject to the regulation, examination and supervision by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB") with respect to a broad array of federal consumer laws. As a covered savings association, the Bank is required to become a member of the Federal Reserve System and subscribe to the capital stock of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (the "FRBSF"). Our subsidiaries, Axos Clearing LLC and Axos Invest LLC, are broker-dealers and are registered with and subject to regulation by the SEC and FINRA. In addition, Axos Invest, Inc., an investment adviser, is registered with the SEC. Axos Invest, Inc. is subject to the requirements of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the "Advisers Act"), and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and is subject to examination by the SEC.
 The following information describes aspects of the material laws and regulations applicable to the Company. The information below does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to all applicable laws and regulations. In addition, new and amended legislation, rules and regulations governing the Company are introduced from time to time by the U.S. government and its various agencies, including in response to recent highly-publicized bank failures. Any such legislation, regulatory changes or amendments could adversely affect us and no assurance can be given as to whether, or in what form, any such changes may occur.
 Financial holding companies are generally permitted to affiliate with securities firms and insurance companies and engage in other activities that are "financial in nature." Such activities include, among other things, securities underwriting, dealing and market making; sponsoring mutual funds and investment companies; insurance underwriting and agency; merchant banking activities; and activities that the Federal Reserve has determined to be closely related to banking. If the Bank ceases to be "well capitalized" or "well managed" under applicable regulatory standards, the Federal Reserve may, among other things, place limitations on our ability to conduct these broader financial activities. In addition, if the Bank receives a rating of less than

 satisfactory under the Community Reinvestment Act, we would be prohibited from engaging in any additional activities other than those permissible for bank holding companies that are not financial holding companies. If a financial holding company fails to continue to meet any of the prerequisites for financial holding company status, including those described above, the Federal Reserve may order the company to divest its subsidiary banks or discontinue or divest investments in companies engaged in activities permissible only for a bank holding company that has elected to be treated as a financial holding company. No regulatory approval is required for a financial holding company to acquire a company, other than a bank or savings association, engaged in activities that are financial in nature or incidental to activities that are financial in nature, as determined by the Federal Reserve.
 REGULATION OF FINANCIAL HOLDING COMPANY
 General. Axos Financial is required to file reports with, comply with the rules and regulations of, and is subject to examination by the Federal Reserve. In addition, the Federal Reserve has enforcement authority over Axos Financial and its subsidiaries.
 Capital. Our Company and the Bank are subject to the risk-based regulatory capital framework and guidelines established by the Federal Reserve and the OCC. In 2013, the Federal Reserve and the OCC published final rules (the "Regulatory Capital Rules") establishing a comprehensive capital framework for U.S. banking organizations. The Regulatory Capital Rules are intended to measure capital adequacy with regard to a banking organization's balance sheet, including off-balance sheet exposures such as unused portions of loan commitments, letters of credit, and recourse arrangements.
 The Regulatory Capital Rules implement the Basel Committee's December 2010 capital framework known as "Basel III" for strengthening international capital standards as well as certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the "Dodd-Frank Act"). The failure of the Company or the Bank to meet minimum capital requirements can result in certain mandatory, and possibly additional discretionary actions by federal banking regulators that could have a material effect on the Company, explained in more detail below under "Regulation of Axos Bank".
 The Regulatory Capital Rules require the Company and the Bank to maintain a minimum "common equity Tier 1" ("CET1") ratio, a Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, a total risk-based capital ratio, and a minimum leverage ratio (calculated as Tier 1 capital to average consolidated assets). A capital conservation buffer of 2.5% above each of these regulatory minimum levels is required for banking institutions to avoid restrictions on their ability to make capital distributions, including the payment of dividends.
 The Regulatory Capital Rules provide for a number of deductions from and adjustments to CET1. In addition, trust preferred securities have been phased out of tier 1 capital for banking organizations that had $15.0 billion or more in total consolidated assets as of December 31, 2009 unless the banking organization grows above $15.0 billion in assets as a result of an acquisition. The Company's trust preferred securities currently are grandfathered under this provision. In addition, the Company and the Bank elected the current expected credit losses ("CECL") five-year transition guidance for calculating regulatory capital ratios on July 1, 2020 and the June 30, 2024 ratios include this election. This guidance allows an entity to add back to capital 100% of the capital impact from the day one CECL transition adjustment and 25% of subsequent increases to the allowance for credit losses through June 30, 2022. This cumulative amount is being phased out of regulatory capital over the three years beginning July 1, 2022.
 The implementation of certain regulations and standards relating to regulatory capital could disproportionately affect our regulatory capital position relative to that of our competitors, including those that may not be subject to the same regulatory requirements as the Company and the Bank. Various aspects of the Regulatory Capital Rules continue to be subject to further evaluation and interpretation by the U.S. banking regulators.
 As of June 30, 2024, the capital ratios of both the Company and the Bank exceeded the minimums necessary to be considered "well-capitalized" under the capital adequacy requirements. For additional information, please see Note 19— "Regulatory Capital Requirements" in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
 Source of Strength. The Dodd-Frank Act extends the Federal Reserve's "source of strength" doctrine to savings and loan holding companies. Such policy requires holding companies to act as a source of financial strength to their subsidiary depository institutions by providing capital, liquidity and other support in times of an institution's financial distress. The regulatory agencies have yet to issue joint regulations implementing this policy.
 Change in Control. The federal banking laws require that appropriate regulatory approvals must be obtained before an individual or company may take actions to "control" a bank or savings association.

 Volcker Rule. Under certain provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act known as the Volcker Rule, FDIC-insured depository institutions, their holding companies, subsidiaries and affiliates, are generally prohibited from proprietary trading of securities and other financial instruments and from acquiring or retaining an ownership interest in private equity and hedge funds and certain other entities. The prohibitions under the Volcker Rule are subject to a number of statutory exemptions, restrictions, and definitions.
 Potential Regulatory Enforcement Actions. If the Federal Reserve or the OCC determines that a savings and loan holding company's or federal savings bank's financial condition, capital resources, asset quality, earnings prospects, management, liquidity, or other aspects of its operations are unsatisfactory or that its management has violated any law or regulation, the agency has the authority to take a number of different remedial actions as it deems appropriate under the circumstances. These actions include, among other things, the power to enjoin any "unsafe or unsound" banking practices; to require that affirmative action be taken to correct any conditions resulting from any violation of law or unsafe or unsound practice; to issue an administrative order that can be judicially enforced; to require that it increase its capital; to restrict its growth; assess civil monetary penalties against it or its officers or directors; and to remove any of its officers and directors.
 REGULATION OF AXOS BANK
 General. As a covered savings association, the Bank maintains its charter as a federal savings bank, but is treated as a national bank, except for certain enumerated purposes. As such, Axos has the power to engage in the same activities as a national bank, subject to the same authorization, terms, and conditions as a national bank. Furthermore, covered savings associations generally are afforded the same rights and privileges as national banks under the National Bank Act and other applicable federal laws and regulations. As a covered savings association, the Bank is not required to comply with the lending limits established by the HOLA that are applicable to federal savings associations. Axos Bank is subject to extensive regulation and examination by the OCC, FDIC and the CFPB with respect to federal consumer financial laws. The following discussion summarizes some of the principal areas of regulation applicable to the Bank and its operations.
 Insurance of Deposit Accounts. The FDIC administers the DIF which insures depositors in certain types of accounts up to a prescribed amount for the loss of any such depositor's respective deposits due to the failure of an FDIC member depository institution. As the administrator of the DIF, the FDIC assesses its member depository institutions and determines the appropriate DIF premiums to be paid by each such institution. The FDIC is authorized to examine its member institutions and to require that they file periodic reports of their condition and operations. The FDIC may also prohibit any member institution from engaging in any activity the FDIC determines by regulation or order to pose a serious risk to the DIF. The FDIC has the authority to initiate enforcement actions against savings associations, after giving the primary federal regulator the opportunity to take such action. The FDIC may terminate an institution's access to the DIF if it determines that the institution has engaged in unsafe or unsound practices or is in an unsafe or unsound condition. We do not know of any practice, condition or violation that might lead to termination of our access to the DIF.
 Axos Bank is a member depository institution of the FDIC and its deposits are insured by the DIF up to the applicable limits, which are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. The basic deposit insurance limit is $250,000.
 Regulatory Capital Requirements and Prompt Corrective Action. The prompt corrective action regulation of the OCC requires mandatory actions and authorizes other discretionary actions to be taken by the OCC against a savings association that falls within undercapitalized capital categories specified in OCC regulations.
 In general, the prompt corrective action regulation prohibits an FDIC member institution from declaring any dividends, making any other capital distribution, or paying a management fee to a controlling person if, following the distribution or payment, the institution would be within any of the three undercapitalized categories. In addition, adequately capitalized institutions may accept brokered deposits only with a waiver from the FDIC, but are subject to restrictions on the interest rates that can be paid on such deposits. Undercapitalized institutions may not accept, renew or roll-over brokered deposits.
 If the OCC determines that an institution is in an unsafe or unsound condition, or if the institution is deemed to be engaging in an unsafe and unsound practice, the OCC may reclassify the institution's capital category or subject the institution to certain restrictions. Further, the FDIC can examine any institution that has a substandard regulatory examination score or is considered undercapitalized, so long as the FDIC provides reasonable prior notice to the institution's primary regulator.
 Capital regulations applicable to the Bank require the Bank to meet an additional capital standard of tangible capital equal to at least 1.5% of total average adjusted assets.
 The Bank's capital requirements are viewed as minimum standards and most financial institutions are expected to maintain capital levels well above the minimum. In addition, OCC regulations provide that minimum capital levels greater than those provided in the regulations may be established by the OCC for individual savings associations upon a determination that

 the savings association's capital is or may become inadequate in view of its circumstances. Axos Bank is not subject to any such individual minimum regulatory capital requirement and the Bank's regulatory capital exceeded all minimum regulatory capital requirements as of June 30, 2024. See Item 7—Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—"Liquidity and Capital Resources."
 Stress Testing. The Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act set the asset threshold for enhanced prudential standards and stress testing at $100 billion of total consolidated assets. Based on asset levels at June 30, 2023, neither the Company nor the Bank are subject to enhanced stress test regulations. The federal banking agencies have indicated that the capital planning and risk management practices of financial institutions with total assets less than $100 billion will continue to be reviewed through the regular supervisory process. We plan to continue monitoring our capital consistent with the safety and soundness expectations of the Federal Reserve and will continue to use customized stress testing as part of our capital planning process.
 Standards for Safety and Soundness. The federal banking regulatory agencies have prescribed, by regulation, guidelines for all insured depository institutions relating to, among other things: (i) internal controls, information systems and internal audit systems; (ii) loan documentation; (iii) credit underwriting; (iv) interest rate risk exposure; (v) asset growth; (vi) asset quality; (vii) earnings; and (viii) compensation, fees and benefits. The guidelines set forth safety and soundness standards that the federal banking regulatory agencies use to identify and address problems at FDIC member institutions before capital becomes impaired. If the OCC determines that the Bank fails to meet any standard prescribed by these guidelines, the OCC may require us to submit to it an acceptable plan to achieve compliance with the required standards. OCC regulations establish deadlines for the submission and review of such safety and soundness compliance plans in response to any such determination.
 Loans-to-One-Borrower Limitations. Savings associations generally are subject to certain lending limits. With limited exceptions, the maximum amount that a savings association may lend to any borrower, including related entities of the borrower, at one time may not exceed 15% of the unimpaired capital and surplus of the institution, plus an additional 10% of unimpaired capital and surplus for loans fully secured by readily marketable collateral.
 Qualified Thrift Lender Test. As a covered savings association, the Bank is no longer required to satisfy the qualified thrift lender, or "QTL" test. This test may be met either by maintaining a specified level of portfolio assets in qualified thrift investments as specified by the HOLA, or by meeting the definition of a "domestic building and loan association," ("DBLA") under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, (the "Code"). Qualified thrift investments are primarily residential mortgage loans and related investments, including mortgage related securities. Portfolio assets generally mean total assets less specified liquid assets, goodwill and other intangible assets and the value of property used in the conduct of the Bank's business. The required percentage of qualified thrift investments under the HOLA is 65% of "portfolio assets" (defined as total assets less: (i) specified liquid assets up to 20% of total assets; (ii) intangibles, including goodwill; and (iii) the value of property used to conduct business) and under the DBLA is at least 60% of the amount of total assets. An association must be in compliance with the HOLA test on a monthly basis at least nine out of every 12 months or meet the definition of a DBLA at the savings association's fiscal year end or on an average basis. Savings associations that fail to meet the QTL test will generally be prohibited from engaging in any activity not permitted for both a national bank and a savings association. At June 30, 2024, the Bank was in compliance with its QTL requirement and met the definition of a DBLA.
 Liquidity Standard. Savings associations are required to maintain sufficient liquidity to ensure safe and sound operations. As of June 30, 2024, Axos Bank was in compliance with the applicable liquidity standard. For additional information on the Company's liquidity, see "Liquidity and Capital Resources" in Part II, Item 7.
 Transactions with Related Parties. The authority of the Bank to engage in transactions with "affiliates" (i.e., any company that controls or is under common control with it, including the Company and any non-depository institution subsidiaries) is limited by federal law. The aggregate amount of covered transactions with any individual affiliate is limited to 10% of the capital and surplus of the savings institution. The aggregate amount of covered transactions with all affiliates is limited to 20% of a savings institution's capital and surplus. Certain transactions with affiliates are required to be secured by collateral in an amount and of a type described in federal law. The purchase of low-quality assets from affiliates is generally prohibited. Transactions with affiliates must be on terms and under circumstances that are at least as favorable to the institution as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with non-affiliated companies. In addition, savings institutions are prohibited from lending to any affiliate that is engaged in activities that are not permissible for bank holding companies, and no savings institution may purchase the securities of any affiliate other than a subsidiary.
 The Sarbanes-Oxley Act generally prohibits loans by public companies to their executive officers and directors. However, there is a specific exception for loans by financial institutions, such as the Bank, to its executive officers and directors that are made in compliance with federal banking laws. Under such laws, our authority to extend credit to executive officers, directors, and 10% or more stockholders ("insiders"), as well as entities such persons control, is limited. The law limits both the

 individual and aggregate amount of loans the Bank may make to insiders based, in part, on its capital position and requires certain board approval procedures to be followed. Such loans are required to be made on terms substantially the same as those offered to unaffiliated individuals and cannot involve more than the normal risk of repayment. There is an exception for loans made pursuant to a benefit or compensation program that is widely available to all employees of the institution and does not give preference to insiders over other employees.
 Capital Distribution Limitations. OCC regulations limit the ability of a savings association to make capital distributions, such as cash dividends. These regulations limit the ability of the Bank to pay dividends or other capital distributions to the Company, which in turn may limit our ability to pay dividends, repay debt or redeem or purchase shares of our outstanding common stock. Under these regulations, a savings association may, in circumstances described in those regulations:
 • Be required to file an application and await approval from the OCC before it makes a capital distribution;
 • Be required to file a notice 30 days before the capital distribution; or
 • Be permitted to make the capital distribution without notice or application to the OCC.
 Community Reinvestment Act and the Fair Lending Laws. Savings associations have a responsibility under the Community Reinvestment Act and related regulations of the OCC to help meet the credit needs of their communities, including low- and moderate-income neighborhoods. In addition, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and the Fair Housing Act prohibit lenders from discriminating in their lending practices on the basis of characteristics specified in those statutes. An institution's failure to comply with the provisions of the Community Reinvestment Act could, at a minimum, result in regulatory restrictions on its activities and the denial of applications for certain expansionary activities. In addition, an institution's failure to comply with the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and the Fair Housing Act could result in the OCC, other federal regulatory agencies or the Department of Justice, taking enforcement actions against the institution. In the most recent Community Reinvestment Act Report, issued in April 2023, the Bank received a 'Satisfactory' rating covering calendar years 2019, 2020, and 2021.
 Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") System. The Bank is a member of the FHLB system. Among other benefits, each FHLB serves as a reserve or central bank for its members within its assigned region. Each FHLB is financed primarily from the sale of consolidated obligations of the FHLB system. Each FHLB makes available loans or advances to its members in compliance with the policies and procedures established by the Board of Directors of the individual FHLB. As an FHLB member, the Bank is required to own capital stock in a Federal Home Loan Bank in specified amounts based on either its aggregate outstanding principal amount of its residential mortgage loans, home purchase contracts and similar obligations at the beginning of each calendar year or its outstanding advances from the FHLB.
 Activities of Subsidiaries. A savings association seeking to establish a new subsidiary, acquire control of an existing company or conduct a new activity through a subsidiary must provide not less than 30 days prior notice to the FDIC and the OCC and conduct any activities of the subsidiary in compliance with regulations and orders of the OCC. The OCC has the power to require a savings association to divest any subsidiary or terminate any activity conducted by a subsidiary that the OCC determines to pose a serious threat to the financial safety, soundness or stability of the savings association or to be otherwise inconsistent with sound banking practices.
 Consumer Laws and Regulations. The Dodd-Frank Act established the CFPB with broad rule-making, supervisory and enforcement authority over consumer financial products and services, including deposit products, residential mortgages, home-equity loans and credit cards. The CFPB is an independent "watchdog" within the Federal Reserve System with authority to enforce and create (i) rules, orders and guidelines of the CFPB, (ii) all consumer financial protection functions, powers and duties transferred from other federal agencies, such as the Federal Reserve, the OCC, the FDIC, the Federal Trade Commission, and the Department of Housing and Urban Development, and (iii) a long list of consumer financial protection laws enumerated in the Dodd-Frank Act, such as the Electronic Fund Transfer Act, the Consumer Leasing Act of 1976, the Alternative Mortgage Transaction Parity Act of 1982, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Expedited Funds Availability Act, the Truth in Lending Act and the Truth in Savings Act, among many others. The CFPB has broad examination and enforcement authority, including the power to issue subpoenas and cease and desist orders, commence civil actions, hold investigations and hearings and seek civil penalties, as well as the authority to regulate disclosures, mandate registration of any covered person and to regulate what it considers unfair, deceptive, and/or abusive practices.
 Depository institutions with more than $10 billion in assets and their affiliates are subject to direct supervision by the CFPB, including any applicable examination, enforcement and reporting requirements the CFPB may establish. As of June 30, 2024, the Bank had $22.1 billion in total assets, placing the Bank under the direct supervision and oversight of the CFPB. The laws and regulations of the CFPB and other consumer protection laws and regulations to which the Bank is subject mandate certain disclosure requirements and regulate the manner in which we must deal with customers when taking deposits from, making loans to, or engaging in other types of transactions with, our customers.

 Privacy Standards and Cybersecurity. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ("GLBA") modernized the financial services industry by establishing a comprehensive framework to permit affiliations among commercial banks, insurance companies, securities firms and other financial service providers. The Bank is subject to OCC regulations implementing the privacy protection provisions of the GLBA. These regulations require the Bank to disclose its privacy policy, including informing consumers of its information sharing practices and informing consumers of their rights to opt out of certain practices.
 In addition to the GLBA, we are subject to various other federal and state laws, regulations and regulatory interpretations which impose standards and requirements related to cybersecurity. For additional information on our cybersecurity risk management, strategy and governance, see Part I, Item 1C "Cybersecurity."
 State regulators have been increasingly active in implementing privacy and cybersecurity standards and regulations. Recently, several states have adopted regulations requiring certain financial institutions to implement cybersecurity programs and providing detailed requirements with respect to these programs, including data encryption requirements. Many states have also recently implemented or modified their data breach notification and data privacy requirements. The California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act), which covers businesses that collect and use personal information on California resident consumers, grants consumers enhanced privacy rights and control over their personal information and imposes significant requirements on covered companies with respect to consumer data privacy rights.
 New laws or changes to existing laws, including privacy-related enforcement activity, increase our operating and compliance costs (including technology costs) and could reduce income from certain business initiatives or restrict our ability to provide certain products and services. Our failure, or perceived failure, to comply with privacy policies, or applicable, data protection and information security laws, regulations, rules, standards or contractual obligations, could result in significant regulatory or governmental investigations or actions, litigation, fines, sanctions, and damage to our reputation, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
 Bank Secrecy Act and Anti-Money Laundering. The Bank, its affiliated broker-dealers and in certain cases Axos Financial, Inc., are subject to the Bank Secrecy Act and other anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act. The Bank Secrecy Act requires all financial institutions to, among other things, establish a risk-based system of internal controls reasonably designed to prevent money laundering and the financing of terrorism. The Bank Secrecy Act includes various record keeping and reporting requirements such as cash transaction and suspicious activity reporting as well as due diligence requirements. The USA PATRIOT Act gives the federal government broad powers to address terrorist threats through enhanced domestic security measures, expanded surveillance powers, increased information sharing, and broadened anti-money laundering requirements. Failure of a financial institution to maintain and implement adequate programs to combat money laundering and terrorist financing could have serious legal and reputational consequences for the institution.
 Office of Foreign Assets Control Regulation and Anti-Corruption. The Bank and its affiliated broker-dealers are also required to comply with the U.S. Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control imposed economic sanctions that affect transactions with designated foreign countries, nationals, individuals, entities and others. These are typically known as the "OFAC rules," based on their administration by the U.S. Treasury Department Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC"). The OFAC-administered sanctions targeting countries take many different forms. Generally, however, they contain one or more of the following elements: (i) restrictions on trade with, or investment in, a sanctioned country, including prohibitions against direct or indirect imports from, and exports to, a sanctioned country and prohibitions on "U.S. persons" engaging in financial transactions relating to making investments in, or providing investment-related advice or assistance to, a sanctioned country; and (ii) a blocking of assets in which the government or specially designated nationals of the sanctioned country have an interest, by prohibiting transfers of property subject to U.S. jurisdiction (including property in the possession or control of U.S. persons). Blocked assets (e.g., property and bank deposits) cannot be paid out, withdrawn, set off, or transferred in any manner without a license from OFAC. We are also subject to the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and other laws and regulations worldwide regarding corrupt and illegal payments, or providing anything of value, for the benefit of government officials and others. Failure to comply with these sanctions and the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or similar laws and regulations, could have serious legal and reputational consequences.
 REGULATION OF THE SECURITIES BUSINESS SEGMENT
 Our correspondent clearing and custodial firm Axos Clearing, and introducing broker Axos Invest LLC, are broker-dealers registered with the SEC, members of FINRA and licensed with all U.S. States, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, and various other self-regulatory organizations. Axos Clearing also uses various clearing organizations, including the Depository Trust Company, the National Securities Clearing Corporation, Euroclear and the Options Clearing Corporation.

 Much of the regulation of broker-dealers has been delegated to self-regulatory organizations, principally FINRA, the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board or national securities exchanges. These self-regulatory organizations adopt rules (which are subject to approval by the SEC) for governing their members and the industry. Broker-dealers are also subject to federal regulation and the securities laws of each state where they conduct business. Our broker-dealers are primarily subject to regulation, supervision and regular examination by FINRA.
 Broker-dealers are subject to extensive laws, rules and regulations covering all aspects of the Securities Business Segment, including sales and trading practices, public offerings, publication of research reports, use and safekeeping of clients' funds and securities, capital adequacy, record keeping and reporting, the conduct of directors, officers, and employees, qualification and licensing of supervisory and sales personnel, marketing practices, supervisory and organizational procedures intended to ensure compliance with securities laws and to prevent improper trading on material nonpublic information, limitations on extensions of credit in securities transactions, clearance and settlement procedures, and rules designed to promote high standards of commercial honor and just and equitable principles of trade. Broker-dealers are regulated by state securities administrators in those jurisdictions where they do business. Regulators may conduct periodic examinations and review reports of our operations, controls, supervision, performance, and financial condition. Our broker-dealers' margin lending is regulated by the Federal Reserve Board's restrictions on lending in connection with client purchases and short sales of securities, and FINRA rules require our broker-dealers to impose maintenance requirements based on the value of securities contained in margin accounts. The rules of the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board, which are enforced by the SEC and FINRA, apply to the municipal securities activities of Axos Clearing and Axos Invest LLC.
 Violations of laws, rules and regulations governing a broker-dealer's actions could result in censure, penalties and fines, the issuance of cease-and-desist orders, the restriction, suspension, or expulsion from the securities industry of such broker-dealer, its registered representatives, officers or employees, or other similar adverse consequences.
 The investment advisory services provided by Axos Invest, Inc are regulated and subject to examination by the SEC. In addition, the Advisers Act imposes numerous obligations on our investment advisory business, including fiduciary duties, possible conflicts of interest, unsuitable investment recommendations, disclosure obligations, recordkeeping and reporting requirements, marketing restrictions and general anti-fraud prohibitions. Our failure to comply with the Advisers Act and associated rules and regulations of the SEC could subject us to enforcement proceedings and sanctions for violations, including censure or termination of SEC registration, litigation and reputational harm. In addition, our investment advisory business is subject to notice filings and the anti-fraud rules of state securities regulators.
 Significant new rules and regulations continue to arise from the SEC and the Dodd-Frank Act, including the implementation of a more stringent fiduciary standard for broker-dealers and increased regulation of investment advisers. Compliance with these provisions could result in increased costs. Moreover, to the extent the Dodd-Frank Act affects the operations, financial condition, liquidity, and capital requirements of financial institutions with whom we do business, those institutions may seek to pass on increased costs, reduce their capacity to transact, or otherwise present inefficiencies in their interactions with us.
 Limitation on Businesses. The businesses that our broker-dealers may conduct are limited by its agreements with, and its oversight by, FINRA, other regulatory authorities and federal and state law. Participation in new business lines, including trading of new products or participation on new exchanges or in new countries often requires governmental and/or exchange approvals, which may take significant time and resources. In addition, our broker-dealers are operating subsidiaries of Axos, which means their activities may be further limited by those that are permissible for subsidiaries of financial holding companies, and as a result, may be prevented from entering new businesses that may be profitable in a timely manner, if at all.
 Net Capital Requirements. The SEC, FINRA and various other regulatory authorities have stringent rules and regulations with respect to the maintenance of specific levels of net capital by regulated entities. Rule 15c3-1 of the Exchange Act (the "Net Capital Rule") requires that a broker-dealer maintain minimum net capital. Generally, a broker-dealer's net capital is net worth plus qualified subordinated debt less deductions for non-allowable (or non-liquid) assets and other adjustments and operational charges. As of June 30, 2024, our broker-dealers were in compliance with applicable net capital requirements.
 The SEC, FINRA and other regulatory organizations impose rules that require notification when net capital falls below certain predefined thresholds. These rules dictate the ratio of debt-to-equity in the regulatory capital composition of a broker-dealer, and constrain the ability of a broker-dealer to expand its business under certain circumstances. If a broker-dealer fails to maintain the required net capital, it may be subject to penalties and other regulatory sanctions, including suspension or revocation of registration by the SEC or applicable regulatory authorities, and suspension or expulsion by these regulators could ultimately lead to the broker-dealer's liquidation. Additionally, the Net Capital Rule and certain FINRA rules impose

 requirements that may have the effect of prohibiting a broker-dealer from distributing or withdrawing capital and requiring prior notice to, and approval from, the SEC and FINRA for certain capital withdrawals.
 Compliance with the net capital requirements may limit our operations, requiring the intensive use of capital. Such rules require that a certain percentage of a broker-dealer's assets be maintained in relatively liquid form and therefore act to restrict our ability to withdraw capital from our broker-dealer entities, which in turn may limit our ability to pay dividends, repay debt or redeem or purchase shares of our outstanding common stock. Any change in such rules or the imposition of new rules affecting the scope, coverage, calculation or amount of capital requirements, or a significant operating loss or any unusually large charge against capital, could adversely affect our ability to pay dividends, repay debt, meet our debt covenant requirements or to expand or maintain our operations. In addition, such rules may require us to make substantial capital contributions into one or more of our broker-dealers in order for such subsidiaries to comply with such rules, either in the form of cash or subordinated loans made in accordance with the requirements of all applicable net capital rules.
 Customer Protection Rule. Our broker-dealers that hold customers' funds and securities are subject to the SEC's customer protection rule (Rule 15c3-3 under the Exchange Act), which generally provides that such broker-dealers maintain physical possession or control of all fully-paid securities and excess margin securities carried for the account of customers and maintain certain reserves of cash or qualified securities.
 Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC"). Our broker-dealers are subject to the Securities Investor Protection Act and belong to SIPC, whose primary function is to provide financial protection for the customers of failing brokerage firms. SIPC provides protection for customers up to $500,000, of which a maximum of $250,000 may be in cash.
 Anti-Money Laundering. Our broker-dealers must comply with the USA PATRIOT Act and other rules and regulations, including FINRA requirements, designed to fight international money laundering and to block terrorist access to the U.S. financial system. We are required to have systems and procedures to ensure compliance with such laws and regulations.
 Form Customer Relationship Summary ("Form CRS"). The SEC Form CRS requires registered investment advisors and broker-dealers to deliver to retail investors a succinct, plain English summary about the relationship and services provided by the firm and the required standard of conduct associated with the relationship and services.

 ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
 An investment in our common stock is subject to risks inherent in our business. Before making an investment decision, you should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below together with all of the other information included in this report. In addition to the risks and uncertainties described below, other risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial may also materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Risks disclosed in this section may have already materialized. The value or market price of our common stock could decline due to any of these identified or other risks, and you could lose all or part of your investment. This report is qualified in its entirety by these risk factors.

 Risks Relating to Macroeconomic Conditions
 Changes in interest rates could adversely affect our performance.
 Our results of operations depend to a great extent on our net interest income, which is the difference between the interest rates earned on interest-earning assets such as loans and investment securities, and the interest rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities such as deposits and borrowings. We are exposed to interest rate risk because our interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities do not react uniformly or concurrently to changes in interest rates, as they may have different time periods for adjustment and can be tied to different measures of rates. Interest rates are sensitive to factors that are beyond our control, including domestic and international economic conditions, including inflation, and the policies of various governmental and regulatory agencies, including the Federal Reserve. The monetary policies of the Federal Reserve, implemented through open market operations, the federal funds rate ("Fed Funds Rate") targets, and the discount rate for banking borrowings and reserve requirements, affect prevailing interest rates. A material change in any of these policies could have a material impact on us or our customers (including borrowers), and therefore on our results of operations. Beginning early in 2022 and continuing in 2023, in response to growing indications of inflation, the Federal Reserve increased interest rates rapidly and the Fed Funds Rate currently sits at a 23-year high.
 Loan originations and repayment rates tend to increase with declining interest rates and decrease with rising interest rates. Increases in interest rates can negatively impact our business, including a possible reduction in customers' or potential customers' desire to borrow money or adversely affecting customers' ability to repay on outstanding loans by increasing their debt obligations. On the deposit side, increasing interest rates generally lead to higher rates paid for our deposit accounts. While we manage the sensitivity of our assets and liabilities, large, unanticipated, or rapid increases in market interest rates may have an adverse impact on our net interest income and could decrease our mortgage refinancing business and related fee income, and could cause an increase in delinquencies and non-performing loans and leases in our adjustable-rate loans. In addition, interest rate volatility can affect the value of our loans and leases, investments and other interest-rate sensitive assets and our ability to realize gains on the sale or resolution of these assets, which in turn may affect our liquidity. There can be no assurance that we will be able to successfully manage our interest rate risk.
 A significant or sustained economic downturn could result in increases in our level of non-performing loans and leases and/or reduce demand for our products and services, which could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.
 Our business and results of operations are affected by the financial markets and general economic conditions, including factors such as the level and volatility of interest rates, inflation, home prices, unemployment and under-employment levels, bankruptcies, household income and consumer spending. We operate in an uncertain economic environment due to a variety of other reasons including, but not limited to, trade policies and tariffs, geopolitical tensions, including escalating military conflicts and tensions in Europe as a result of Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, and volatile energy prices. The risks associated with our business become more acute in periods of a slowing economy or slow growth. Furthermore, given our high concentration of loans secured by real estate in California and New York, the Company remains particularly susceptible to a downturn in those states' economies. These negative events may cause us to incur losses and may adversely affect our capital, financial condition and results of operations.
 The specific impact on us of unfavorable or uncertain economic or market conditions is difficult to predict, could be long or short term, and may be direct or indirect. A worsening of business and economic conditions generally or specifically in the principal markets in which we conduct business could have adverse effects, including the following:
 • a decrease in the demand for, or the availability of, loans and other products and services we offer;
 • a decrease in deposit balances, including low-cost and non-interest-bearing deposits, and changes in our interest rate mix toward higher-cost deposits;
 • an increase in the number of borrowers who become delinquent, file for protection under bankruptcy laws or default on their loans or other obligations to us, which could lead to higher levels of nonperforming assets, net charge-offs, and provisions for credit losses;
 • a decrease in the value of loans and other assets secured by collateral such as consumer or commercial real estate;
 • a decrease in net interest income from our lending and deposit gathering activities;
 • an impairment of certain intangible assets such as goodwill;
 • an increase in competition resulting from increasing consolidation within the financial services industry; and

 • an increase in borrowing costs in excess of changes in the rate at which we reinvest funds.
 Inflation has negatively impacted, and may continue to negatively impact our business and our profitability.
 Prolonged periods of inflation have impacted, and may continue to impact our profitability by negatively impacting our non-interest expenses, including increasing expense related to talent acquisition and retention. Additionally, inflation has led to and may continue to lead to a decrease in consumer and clients purchasing power and negatively affect the need or demand for our products and services. If significant inflation continues, our business could be negatively affected by, among other things, increased default rates leading to credit losses which could decrease our willingness to offer new credit extensions. These inflationary pressures could adversely affect our results of operations or financial condition.
 The value of our securities in our investment portfolio may decline in the future.
 The fair market value of our investment securities may be adversely affected by general economic and market conditions, including changes in interest rates, credit spreads, and the occurrence of any events adversely affecting the issuer of particular securities in our investments portfolio or any given market segment or industry in which we are invested. We analyze our available-for-sale securities on a quarterly basis to measure any impairment and potential credit losses. The process for determining impairment and any credit losses usually requires complex, subjective judgments about the future financial performance of the issuer in order to assess the probability of receiving principal and interest payments sufficient to recover our amortized cost of the security. Because of changing economic and market conditions affecting issuers, we may be required to recognize credit losses in future periods, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
 The weakness of other financial institutions or other companies in the financial services industries could adversely affect us.
 Our ability to engage in routine funding transactions could be adversely affected by the actions and commercial soundness of other financial institutions. Financial services institutions are interrelated as a result of trading, clearing, counterparty and other relationships. We have exposure to many different counterparties, and we routinely execute transactions with counterparties in the financial industry, including brokers-dealers, other commercial banks, investment banks, mutual and hedge funds, and other financial institutions. As a result, defaults by, or even rumors or questions about, one or more financial services institutions, or the financial services industry generally, could lead to market-wide liquidity problems and losses or defaults by us or by other institutions and organizations. Many of these transactions expose us to credit risk in the event of default of our counterparty or client. In addition, our credit risk may be exacerbated when the collateral held by us cannot be liquidated, liquidated timely or is liquidated at prices not sufficient to recover the full amount of the financial instrument exposure due to us. There is no assurance that any such losses would not materially and adversely affect our results of operations.
 Further, in our fund finance commercial lending business, clients have capital call lines of credit, the repayment of which is dependent on the payment of capital calls or management fees by the limited partner investors in the funds managed by these firms. These third parties may not be able to meet their financial obligations to our clients or to us, which ultimately could have an adverse impact on us.
 Events, both actual or rumored, involving limited liquidity, defaults, non-performance or other adverse developments that affect other companies in the financial services industry or the financial services industry generally have in the past, and may in the future, lead to erosion of customer confidence in the financial services industry, deposit volatility, liquidity issues, stock price volatility and other adverse developments, including increased regulatory oversight, increased premiums for the FDIC insurance program, higher capital requirements or changes in the way regulatory capital is calculated, and impositions of additional restrictions through regulatory changes or supervisory or enforcement activities. As a result, our operating margins, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.
 Our business and operating results could be adversely affected by the political environment and governmental fiscal and monetary policies.
 An unpredictable or volatile political environment in the United States, including any social unrest and uncertainty as a result of the 2024 U.S. presidential election, could negatively impact business and market conditions, economic growth, financial stability, and business, consumer, investor, and regulatory sentiments, any one or more of which in turn could cause our business and financial results to suffer. It is difficult to predict the legislative and regulatory changes that may result due to the upcoming presidential election. A new administration, or a change in the make-up of either the Senate and/or House of Representatives may cause broader economic changes due to changes in governing ideology and governing style. New appointments to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve could affect monetary policy and interest rates, and changes in

 fiscal policy could affect broader patterns of trade and economic growth. Future legislation, regulation, and government policy could affect the banking industry as a whole, including our business and results of operations, in ways that are difficult to predict. In addition, our results of operations could be adversely affected by changes in the way in which existing statutes and regulations are interpreted or applied by courts and government agencies.
 Our business and financial results are significantly affected by the fiscal and monetary policies of the federal government of the United States and its agencies. We are particularly affected by the monetary policies of the Federal Reserve, including the regulation of the supply of money and credit in the United States. The Federal Reserve and its policies influence the availability and demand for loans and deposits, the rates and other terms for loans and deposits, the conditions in equity, fixed-income, currency, and other markets, and the value of securities and other financial instruments. Both the timing and the nature of any changes in monetary or fiscal policies, as well as their consequences for the economy and the markets in which we operate, are beyond our control and difficult to predict but could adversely affect our business and operating results.
 Risks Relating to Regulation of our Business
 Changes in laws, regulations or oversight or increased enforcement activities by regulatory agencies may increase our costs and adversely affect our business and operations.
 We operate in a highly regulated industry and are subject to oversight, regulation and examination by federal and/or state governmental authorities under various laws, regulations and policies, which impose requirements or restrictions on our operations, capitalization, payment of dividends, mergers and acquisitions, investments, loans and interest rates charged and interest rates paid on deposits. We must also comply with federal anti-money laundering, bank secrecy, tax withholding and reporting, and various consumer protection statutes and regulations. A considerable amount of management time and resources is devoted to oversight of, and development, implementation and execution of controls and procedures relating to, compliance with these laws, regulations and policies.
 The laws, rules, regulations and supervisory policies governing our business are intended primarily for the protection of our depositors, our customers, the financial system and the FDIC insurance fund, not our stockholders or other creditors and are subject to regular modification and change. New or amended laws, rules, regulations and policies, including potential changes under consideration in response to bank failures, and the upcoming U.S. presidential election, could impact our operations, increase our capital requirements or substantially restrict our growth and adversely affect our ability to operate profitably by making compliance more difficult or expensive, restrict our ability to originate or sell loans, or impact the amount of interest or other charges or fees earned on loans or other products. In addition, further regulation, including in response to bank failures, could increase the assessment rate we are required to pay to the FDIC, adversely affecting our earnings. It is difficult to predict future changes in regulation or the competitive impact that any such changes would have on our business. Any new laws, rules and regulations could make compliance more difficult, expensive, costly to implement or may otherwise adversely affect our business, financial condition or growth prospects. Other changes to statutes, regulations, or regulatory policies, including changes in interpretation or implementation of statutes, regulations, or policies, could affect us in substantial and unpredictable ways including subjecting us to additional costs, limiting the types of financial services and products we may offer, and increasing the ability of non-banks to offer competing financial services and products.
 The Bank Secrecy Act, the USA PATRIOT Act, and similar laws and regulations require financial institutions, among other duties, to institute and maintain effective anti-money laundering programs and to file suspicious activity and currency transaction reports as appropriate. The Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, a bureau of the United States Department of Treasury, is authorized to impose significant civil money penalties for violations of those requirements and has engaged in coordinated enforcement efforts with the individual federal banking regulators, as well as the U.S. Department of Justice, Drug Enforcement Administration and the Internal Revenue Service. There is increased scrutiny of compliance with the rules enforced by the OFAC. Federal and state bank regulators have focused on compliance with the Bank Secrecy Act and anti-money laundering regulations. Several banking institutions have received large fines, or suffered limitations on their operations, for non-compliance with these laws and regulations. Although we have developed policies, procedures and processes designed to assist in compliance with these laws and regulations, no assurance can be given that these policies and procedures will be effective in detecting violations of these laws and regulations. If our policies, procedures and systems are deemed deficient, we may be subject to liability, including fines and regulatory actions such as restrictions on our ability to pay dividends and the necessity to obtain regulatory approval to proceed with acquisitions and other strategic transactions, which could negatively impact our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. Failure to maintain and implement adequate programs to combat money laundering and terrorist financing could have material adverse reputational consequences for us.
 Our failure to comply with current, or adapt to new or changing, laws, regulations or policies could result in enforcement actions and sanctions against us by regulatory agencies, civil money penalties and/or reputation damage, along with corrective action plans required by regulatory agencies, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our business,

 financial condition and results of operations, and the value of our common stock.
 Failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations, or to satisfy our regulators' supervisory expectations, could subject us to supervisory or enforcement action, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 If we do not comply with applicable laws or regulations, if we are deemed to have engaged in unsafe or unsound conduct, or if we do not satisfy our regulators' supervisory expectations, we may be subject to regulatory scrutiny, supervisory criticism, litigation and/or a wide range of potential monetary penalties or enforcement actions. Such actions could arise even if we are acting in good faith or operating under a reasonable interpretation of the law. Such actions could include monetary penalties, payment of damages, restitution or disgorgement of profits, directives to take remedial action or to cease or modify practices, restrictions on growth or expansionary proposals, denial or refusal to accept applications, removal of officers or directors, a prohibition on dividends or capital distributions, increases in capital or liquidity requirements and/or termination of the Bank's FDIC deposit insurance. Such actions could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, including as a result of reputational harm.
 The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to changes in federal and state tax laws and the interpretation of existing laws and examinations and challenges by taxing authorities.
 Our financial performance is impacted by federal and state tax laws. Given the current economic and political environment and ongoing budgetary pressures, the enactment of new federal or state legislation or new interpretations of existing tax laws could adversely impact our tax position, in some circumstances retroactively. The Inflation Reduction Act (the "IRA"), which established a 15% corporate alternative minimum tax on adjusted book income (of corporations that have an average adjusted book income in excess of $1 billion over a three tax year period) for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022, may impact the Company's cash tax payments and tax credit carryforward balances. The IRA includes a nondeductible 1% excise tax on certain repurchases of corporate stock for transactions occurring after December 31, 2022, which increases the Company's cost of share repurchases exceeding certain thresholds. The consequences of the IRA, the enactment of new federal or state tax legislation, or changes in the interpretation of existing law, including provisions impacting income tax rates, apportionment, consolidation or combination, income, expenses, and credits, may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity.
 In the normal course of business, we are routinely subjected to examinations and audits from federal, state, and local taxing authorities regarding tax positions taken by us and the determination of the amount of taxes due. These examinations may relate to income, franchise, gross receipts, payroll, property, sales and use, or other tax returns. The challenges made by taxing authorities may result in adjustments to the amount of taxes due and may result in the imposition of penalties and interest. If any such challenges are not resolved in our favor, they could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and liquidity.
 Our broker-dealer and investment advisory businesses subject us to regulatory risks.
 Our broker-dealer and investment advisory businesses subject us to regulation by the SEC, FINRA, other self-regulatory organizations ("SROs"), state securities commissions, and other regulatory bodies. Violations of the laws and regulations governed by these agencies could result in censure, penalties and fines, the issuance of cease-and-desist orders, the restriction, suspension, or expulsion from the securities industry of the Company or its officers or employees, or other similar adverse consequences, any of which could cause us to incur losses and adversely affect our capital, financial condition and results of operations. The SEC, FINRA and other SROs and state securities commissions, among other regulatory bodies, can censure, fine, issue cease-and-desist orders or suspend or expel a broker-dealer or any of its officers or employees. Clearing securities firms are subject to substantially more regulatory control and examination than introducing brokers that rely on others to perform clearing functions. Similarly, the attorney general of each state could bring legal action to ensure compliance with state securities laws, and regulatory agencies in foreign countries have similar authority. Our ability to comply with multiple laws and regulations pertaining to the securities industry depends in large part on our ability to establish and maintain an effective compliance function. The failure to establish and enforce reasonable compliance procedures, even if unintentional, could subject us to significant losses or disciplinary or other actions. Federally registered investment advisers are regulated and subject to examination by the SEC. In addition, the Advisers Act imposes numerous obligations on our investment advisory business, including fiduciary duties, disclosure obligations, recordkeeping and reporting requirements, marketing restrictions and general anti-fraud prohibitions. Our failure to comply with the Advisers Act and associated rules and regulations of the SEC could subject us to enforcement proceedings and sanctions for violations, including censure or termination of SEC registration, litigation and reputational harm. In addition, our investment advisory business is subject to notice filings and the anti-fraud rules of state securities regulators. See "Regulation of the Securities Business Segment."

 Policies and regulations enacted by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau may negatively impact our consumer business and increase our compliance burdens.
 Our consumer business, including our mortgage and deposit businesses, may be adversely affected by the policies enacted or regulations adopted by the CFPB, which, under the Dodd-Frank Act, has broad rule-making authority over consumer financial products and services. The CFPB is in the process of reshaping consumer financial protection laws through rule-making and enforcement against unfair, deceptive and abusive acts or practices. The CFPB has been directed to write rules identifying practices or acts that are unfair, deceptive or abusive in connection with any transaction with a consumer for a consumer financial product or service, or the offering of a consumer financial product or service. While it is difficult to quantify any future increases in our regulatory compliance burden, the costs associated with regulatory compliance, including the need to hire additional compliance personnel, may continue to increase.
 We are subject to numerous laws designed to protect consumers, including the Community Reinvestment Act and fair lending laws, and failure to comply with these laws could lead to a wide variety of sanctions.
 The Community Reinvestment Act, the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Housing Act, and other fair lending laws and regulations (collectively, "Fair Lending Laws") impose community investment and nondiscriminatory lending requirements on financial institutions. The CFPB, the Department of Justice and other federal and state agencies are responsible for enforcing these federal laws and regulations and comparable state provisions. Various federal banking agencies have recently completed significant changes to their respective Community Reinvestment Act regulations. Federal, state or local consumer lending laws may restrict our ability to originate certain mortgage loans or increase our risk of liability with respect to such loans. A successful regulatory challenge to an institution's performance under the Fair Lending Laws could result in a wide variety of sanctions, including damages and civil money penalties, injunctive relief, restrictions on mergers and acquisitions, restrictions on expansion and restrictions on entering new business lines. Private parties may also have the ability to challenge an institution's performance under fair lending laws in private class action litigation. Such actions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 Risks Relating to Commercial Loans, Mortgage Loans and Mortgage-Backed Securities
 Declining real estate values, particularly in California and New York, could reduce the value of our loan and lease portfolio and impair our profitability and financial condition.
 The majority of the loans in our portfolio are secured by real estate. At June 30, 2024, approximately 37.3% and 28.8% of our real estate loan portfolio was secured by real estate located in California and New York, respectively. In recent years, there has been significant volatility in real estate values. If real estate values decrease or more of our borrowers experience financial difficulties, we will experience increased charge-offs, as the proceeds resulting from foreclosure may be significantly lower than the amounts outstanding on such loans and the time to foreclose may be extended. In addition, declining real estate values frequently accompany periods of economic downturn or recession and increasing unemployment, all of which can lead to lower demand for mortgage loans of the types we originate and impact the ability of borrowers to repay their loans. A decline of real estate values or decline of the credit position of our borrowers could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
 Many of our mortgage loans are multifamily residential loans and defaults on such loans would harm our business.
 At June 30, 2024, our multifamily residential loans were $3.9 billion or 19.5% of our loan portfolio. The payment on such loans is typically dependent on the cash flows generated by the projects, which are affected by the supply and demand for multifamily residential units and commercial property within the relative market. If the market for multifamily residential units and commercial property experiences a decline in demand, multifamily and commercial borrowers may suffer losses on their projects and be unable to repay their loans. If residential housing values were to decline or nationwide unemployment levels rise, we are likely to experience increases in the level of our non-performing loans and foreclosures in future periods.

 A decrease in the mortgage buying activity of Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and MBS's guaranteed by Ginnie Mae or a failure by Fannie Mae, Ginnie Mae, and Freddie Mac to satisfy their obligations with respect to their RMBS could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 During the last three fiscal years we have sold approximately $774.1 million of residential mortgage loans to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and into MBS guaranteed by Ginnie Mae. As of June 30, 2024, approximately 19.2% of our securities portfolio consisted of RMBS issued or guaranteed by these GSEs. Since 2008, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac have been in conservatorship, with its primary regulator, the Federal Housing Finance Agency, acting as conservator. The United States government may enact structural changes to one or more of the GSEs, including privatization, consolidation and/or a reduction in the ability of GSEs to purchase mortgage loans or guarantee mortgage obligations. We cannot predict if, when or how the conservatorships will end, or what associated changes (if any) may be made to the structure, mandate or overall business practices of either of the GSEs. Accordingly, there continues to be uncertainty regarding the future of the GSEs, including whether they will continue to exist in their current form and whether they will continue to meet their obligations with respect to their RMBS. A substantial reduction in mortgage purchasing activity by the GSEs could result in a material decrease in the availability of residential mortgage loans and the number of qualified borrowers, which in turn may lead to increased volatility in the residential housing market, including a decrease in demand for residential housing and a corresponding drop in the value of real property that secures current residential mortgage loans, as well as a significant increase in interest rates. In a rising or higher interest rate environment, our originations of mortgage loans may decrease, which would result in a decrease in mortgage loan revenues and a corresponding decrease in non-interest income. Any decision to change the structure, mandate or overall business practices of the GSEs and/or the relationship among the GSEs, the government and the private mortgage loan markets, or any failure by the GSEs to satisfy their obligations with respect to their RMBS, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 Commercial and industrial and commercial real estate loans may expose our company to greater financial and credit risk than other loans.
 Our commercial and industrial loans as well as our commercial real estate – mortgage portfolio was approximately $5.2 billion and $6.1 billion at June 30, 2024, comprising approximately 26.5% and 30.7% of our total loan portfolio, respectively. Commercial loans generally carry large balances and may involve a greater degree of financial and credit risk than other loans. Any significant failure to pay on time by our customers could impact our earnings. The increased financial and credit risk associated with these types of loans are a result of several factors, including the concentration of principal in a limited number of loans and borrowers, the types of business and collateral, the size of loan balances, the effects of nationwide and regional economic conditions on income-producing properties and businesses and the increased difficulty of evaluating and monitoring these types of loans. Declines in real estate markets or sustained economic downturns increases the risk of credit losses or charge-offs related to our loans or foreclosures on certain real estate properties. Underwriting and portfolio management activities cannot completely eliminate all risks related to these loans. Any significant failure to pay on time or other significant default by our clients would materially and adversely affect us.
 The commercial real estate loans we make are secured by income-producing properties such as office buildings, retail centers, mixed-use buildings and multi-tenanted light industrial properties. At June 30, 2024, $302 million, or 6%, of our commercial real estate specialty loan portfolio was secured by office buildings. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a potentially long-term negative impact on certain commercial real estate portfolios due to the risk that tenants may reduce the office space they lease as some portion of the workforce continues to work remotely on a hybrid or full-time basis. A reduction in the need for office space could result in a reduction in demand for these categories of commercial office and/or in our customers' ability to repay their loans, which, in turn, may have an adverse effect on our business and results of operations.
 Commercial real estate markets have been facing downward pressure due in large part to increasing interest rates and declining property values. Accordingly, the federal banking agencies have applied increased regulatory scrutiny to institutions with commercial real estate loan portfolios that are fast growing or large relative to the institutions' total capital. Banking regulatory authorities may require banks with higher levels of commercial real estate loans to implement enhanced risk management practices – including stricter underwriting, additional internal controls and risk management policies, more detailed reporting, and portfolio stress testing – as well as potential higher allowances for credit losses and capital levels as a result of commercial real estate lending growth and exposure. Our failure to adequately implement enhanced risk management policies, procedures and controls could adversely affect our ability to manage the commercial real estate segment of our loan portfolio and could result in an increased rate of delinquencies in, and increased losses from, our loan portfolio, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 A downturn in the real estate market in our primary market areas of California and New York could result in an increase in the number of borrowers who default on their loans and a reduction in the value of the collateral securing their loans, which in turn could have an adverse effect on our profitability and asset quality. If we are required to liquidate the

 collateral securing a loan to satisfy the debt during a period of reduced real estate values, our earnings and shareholders' equity could be adversely affected. Unexpected decreases in commercial real estate prices coupled with slow economic growth and elevated levels of unemployment could drive losses beyond those which are provided for in our allowance for loan losses. We also may incur losses on commercial real estate loans due to declines in occupancy rates and rental rates, which may decrease property values and may decrease the likelihood that a borrower may find permanent financing alternatives. Any of these events could increase our costs, require management's time and attention, and materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 Our mortgage origination business is subject to fluctuations based upon seasonal and other factors and, as a result, our results of operations for any given quarter may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full fiscal year.
 Our mortgage origination business is subject to several variables that can impact loan origination volume, including seasonal and interest rate fluctuations. We typically experience increased loan origination volume from purchases of homes during the second and third calendar quarters, when more people tend to move and buy or sell homes. In addition, an increase in the general level of interest rates may, among other things, adversely affect the demand for mortgage loans and our ability to originate mortgage loans. In particular, if mortgage interest rates increase, the demand for residential mortgage loans and the refinancing of residential mortgage loans will likely decrease, which will have an adverse effect on our mortgage origination activities. Conversely, a decrease in the general level of interest rates, among other things, may lead to increased competition for mortgage loan origination business.
 As a result of these variables, our results of operations for any single quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for a full fiscal year or any other quarter.
 Risks Relating to our Business Operations
 Our results of operations could vary as a result of the methods, estimates, and judgments that we use in applying our accounting policies, including with respect to our allowance for credit losses.
 From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") and the SEC change the financial accounting and reporting standards that govern the preparation of our financial statements. In addition, the FASB, SEC, bank regulators and outside independent auditors may revise their previous interpretations regarding existing accounting regulations and the application of these accounting standards. The methods, estimates and judgments that we use in applying our accounting policies have a significant impact on our results of operations. Such methods, estimates and judgments, include methodologies to value our securities, estimate our allowance for credit losses and the evaluation of goodwill and other intangibles for impairment. These methods, estimates and judgments are, by their nature, subject to substantial risks, uncertainties and assumptions, and factors may arise over time that lead us to change our methods, estimates and judgments. Changes in those methods, estimates and judgments could significantly affect our results of operations. These changes can be difficult to predict and can materially impact how we record and report our financial condition and results of operations.
 If our allowance for credit losses is not sufficient to cover actual credit losses, our earnings, capital adequacy and overall financial condition may suffer materially.
 Our loans are generally secured by single family, multifamily and commercial real estate properties or other commercial assets, each initially having a fair market value generally greater than the amount of the loan secured. Although our loans and leases are typically secured, the risk of default, generally due to a borrower's inability to make scheduled payments on his or her loan, is an inherent risk of the Banking Business Segment. In determining the amount of the allowance for loan and lease losses, we make various assumptions and judgments about the collectability of our loan and lease portfolio, including the creditworthiness of our borrowers, the value of the real estate serving as collateral for the repayment of our loans and our loss history. Defaults by borrowers could result in losses that exceed our loan and lease loss reserves. We may not have sufficient repayment experience to be certain whether the established allowance for loan and lease losses is adequate for certain types of loans and leases. We may have to establish a larger allowance for credit losses in the future if, in our judgment, it becomes necessary.
 To the extent that we fail to adequately address the risks associated with non-residential lending, particularly in C&I lending, including loans collateralized by customer securities, we may experience increases in levels of non-performing loans and leases and be forced to record additional provisions for credit losses, which would adversely affect our capital levels and reduce our profitability. Rapid changes in the fair value of the customer securities serving as collateral may not be sufficiently covered by any excess collateral. For further information about our C&I lending business, please refer to "Business - Loan Portfolio - Commercial & Industrial - Non-Real Estate."

 While we believe we have established appropriate underwriting and ongoing monitoring policies and procedures for our lending activities, there can be no assurance that such underwriting and ongoing monitoring policies and procedures are, or will continue to be, appropriate or that losses on loans will not require increased allowances for loan and lease losses. Any increase in our allowance for loan and lease losses would increase our expenses and consequently may adversely affect our profitability, capital adequacy and overall financial condition.
 Changes in the value of goodwill and other intangible assets could reduce our earnings.
 The Company accounts for goodwill and other intangible assets in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), which, in general, requires that goodwill not be amortized, but rather tested for impairment at least annually at the reporting unit level using the two step approach. Testing for impairment of goodwill and other intangible assets is performed annually and involves the identification of reporting units and the estimation of fair values. The estimation of fair values involves a high degree of judgment and subjectivity in the assumptions used. Changes in the local and national economy, the federal and state legislative and regulatory environments for financial institutions, the stock market, interest rates and other external factors (such as natural disasters or significant world events) may occur from time to time, often with great unpredictability, and may materially impact the fair value of publicly traded financial institutions and could result in an impairment charge at a future date.
 Our risk management processes and procedures may not be effective in mitigating our risks.
 We have established processes and procedures intended to identify, measure, monitor and control material risks to which we are subject, including, for example, credit risk, market risk, liquidity risk, strategic risk and operational risk. If the models that we use to manage these risks are ineffective at predicting future losses or are otherwise inadequate, we may incur unexpected losses or otherwise be adversely affected. In addition, the information we use in managing our credit and other risks may be inaccurate or incomplete as a result of error or fraud, both of which may be difficult to detect and avoid. There may also be risks that exist, or that develop in the future, that we have not appropriately anticipated, identified or mitigated, including when processes or technology change or new products and services are introduced. If our risk management framework does not effectively identify and control our risks, we could suffer unexpected losses or be adversely affected, and that could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.
 Higher FDIC assessments could negatively impact profitability.
 FDIC insurance premiums are risk based, and accordingly, higher premiums are charged to banks that have lower capital ratios or higher risk profiles, including increased construction and development and commercial and industrial lending, declining credit quality metrics, and increased brokered deposits and higher levels of borrowing. As a result, a decrease in the Bank's capital ratios, or a negative evaluation by the FDIC, may increase the Bank's net funding cost and reduce its earnings. Furthermore, recent activity in the banking industry, including certain highly-publicized bank failures, is expected to cause premiums of the FDIC's deposit insurance program to increase.
 Our broker-dealer and advisory businesses subject us to a variety of risks associated with the securities industry.
 Our broker-dealer business subjects us to a number of risks and challenges, including risks related to operationalizing internal controls and regulatory functions; our ability to retain key personnel; our ability to limit the outflow of deposits and successfully retain and manage assets; our ability to retain correspondents who may choose to perform their own clearing services, move their clearing business to one of our competitors or exit the business; and our ability to attract customers and generate new assets in areas not previously served.
 In addition, the broker-dealer business may subject us to risks related to the movement of equity prices. For example, if securities prices decline rapidly, the value of our collateral for margin and other positions could fall below the amount of the indebtedness secured by these securities, and in rapidly appreciating markets, our risk of loss may increase due to short positions. The securities lending and securities trading and execution businesses subject us to risk of loss if a counterparty fails to perform or if collateral securing the counterparty's obligations is insufficient. In securities transactions generally, we may be subject to market risk during the period between the execution of a trade and its settlement. Significant failures by our customers, including correspondents, or clients to honor their obligations, or increases in their rates of default, together with insufficient collateral and reserves, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. Additionally, poor investment returns and declines in client assets, due to either general market conditions or under-performance (relative to our competitors or to benchmarks) of our investment products, may affect our ability to retain existing assets, prevent clients from transferring their assets out of products or their accounts, or inhibit our ability to attract new clients or additional assets from existing clients. Any such poor performance could adversely affect our advisory and custody business and the fees that we earn on client assets.

 Our broker-dealer and advisory businesses are also subject to regulatory requirements and risks discussed above under "Regulation of the Securities Business Segment" in "Supervision and Regulation" and "Our broker-dealer and investment advisory businesses subject us to regulatory risks" herein. Our broker-dealer business exposes us to other risks and uncertainties that are common in the securities industry, including intense competition, and potentially new areas and types of litigation including lawsuits based on allegations concerning our correspondents or based upon the correspondent's actions even though we do not control their activities. For example, we allow our brokerage customers to engage in self-directed trading, and there has been an increase in regulatory enforcement and securities litigation against broker-dealers with self-directed trading platforms. These actions may become more common or frequent, particularly if there is a prolonged decrease in equity prices resulting in investor losses. Allegations of violations of securities laws or FINRA rules, even if not ultimately asserted or proved, could substantially impact our results of operations and lead to reputational harm.
 The regulatory environment in which our broker-dealer business operates is subject to frequent change. Our business, financial condition and operating results may be adversely affected as a result of new or revised legislation or regulations imposed by the U.S. Congress, the SEC, FINRA or other U.S. and state governmental and regulatory authorities. The business, financial condition and operating results of our broker-dealer business may be adversely affected by changes in the interpretation and enforcement of existing laws and rules by these governmental and regulatory authorities.
 Our broker-dealer business is subject to the net capital requirements of the SEC, FINRA and various self-regulatory organizations. These requirements typically specify the minimum level of net capital a broker-dealer must maintain and mandate that a significant part of its assets be kept in relatively liquid form. Failure to maintain the required net capital may subject a firm to limitation of its activities, including suspension or revocation of its registration by the SEC and suspension or expulsion by FINRA and other regulatory bodies, and ultimately may require its liquidation.
 We are subject to stringent capital requirements and may need to raise additional capital in the future, and that capital may not be available or its cost may be high.
 We are required by regulatory authorities to maintain adequate levels of capital to support our operations. In addition, we may elect to raise additional capital to support the growth of our business or to finance acquisitions, if any, or we may elect to raise additional capital for other reasons. We may seek to do so through the issuance of, among other things, our common stock or securities convertible into our common stock, which could dilute existing stockholders' interests in the Company.
 Our ability to raise additional capital, if needed, will depend in part on conditions in the capital markets, economic conditions, our financial performance and a number of other factors, many of which are outside our control. Accordingly, we cannot provide assurance on our ability to raise additional capital if needed or whether it can be raised on terms acceptable to us. If we cannot raise additional capital when needed or on terms acceptable to us, it may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and prospects. In addition, raising equity capital will have a dilutive effect on the equity interests of our existing stockholders and may cause our stock price to decline.
 Liquidity and access to adequate funding cannot be assured.
 Liquidity is essential to our business and the inability to raise funds through deposits, borrowings, equity and debt offerings, or other sources could have a materially adverse effect on our liquidity. The Bank may not be able to meet the cash flow requirements of its customers who may be either depositors wanting to withdraw funds or borrowers needing assurance that sufficient funds will be available to meet their credit needs. Company specific factors such as a decline in our credit rating, an increase in the cost of capital from financial capital markets, a decrease in business activity due to adverse regulatory action or other company specific event, or a decrease in depositor or investor confidence may impair our access to funding with acceptable terms adequate to finance our activities. General factors related to the financial services industry such as a severe disruption in financial markets, a decrease in industry expectations, or a decrease in business activity due to political or environmental events may impair our access to liquidity. Our ability to attract and maintain depositors during a time of actual or perceived distress or instability in the banking industry may be limited. Additionally, we may accept brokered deposits, which may be more price sensitive than other types of deposits, and may become less available if alternative investments offer higher returns. We rely primarily upon deposits and FHLB advances. Our ability to attract deposits could be negatively impacted by a public perception of our financial prospects or by increased deposit rates available at troubled institutions suffering from shortfalls in liquidity. The FHLB advances and the FRBSF discount window are subject to regulation and other factors beyond our control, including changes to FHLB's underwriting guidelines for wholesale borrowings or lending policies. These factors may adversely affect the availability and pricing of advances to members such as the Bank. Selected sources of liquidity may become unavailable to the Bank if it were to no longer be considered "well-capitalized."
 A reduction in our credit ratings could adversely affect our access to capital and could increase our cost of funds.

 The credit rating agencies regularly evaluate the Company and the Bank, and credit ratings are based on a number of factors, including our financial strength and ability to generate earnings, as well as factors not entirely within our control, such as conditions affecting the financial services industry, the economy, and changes in rating methodologies more generally. There can be no assurance that we will maintain our current credit ratings. A further downgrade of the credit ratings of the Company or the Bank could adversely affect our access to liquidity and capital and could significantly increase our cost of funds, trigger additional collateral or funding requirements, and decrease the number of investors and counterparties willing to lend to us or purchase our securities, thereby, potentially reducing our ability to generate earnings.
 Our inability to manage our growth or deploy assets profitably could harm our business and decrease our overall profitability, which may cause our stock price to decline.
 Our assets and deposit base have grown substantially in recent years, and we anticipate that we will continue to grow over time, perhaps significantly. To manage the expected growth of our operations and personnel, we will be required to manage multiple aspects of the business simultaneously, including to, among other things: (i) improve existing and implement new transaction processing, operational and financial systems, procedures and controls; (ii) maintain effective credit scoring and underwriting guidelines; (iii) maintain sufficient levels of regulatory capital and liquidity; and (iv) expand our employee base and train and manage this growing employee base. In addition, acquiring other companies, asset pools or deposits may involve risks such as exposure to potential asset quality issues, disruption to our normal business activities and diversion of management's time and attention due to integration and conversion efforts. If we are unable to manage growth effectively or execute integration efforts properly, we may not be able to achieve the anticipated benefits of growth and our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
 In addition, we may not be able to sustain past levels of profitability as we grow, and our past levels of profitability should not be considered a guarantee or indicator of future success. If we are not able to maintain our levels of profitability by deploying deposits in profitable assets or investments, our net interest margin and overall level of profitability will decrease and our stock price may decline.
 New lines of business, purchased assets or liabilities or new products and services may subject us to additional risks.
 From time to time, we may implement new lines of business, purchase assets or liabilities or offer new products and services. In addition, we will continue to make investments in research, development, and marketing for new products and services. There are substantial risks and uncertainties associated with these efforts, particularly in instances where the markets for such products and services are not fully developed. Initial timetables for the development and introduction of new lines of business and/or new products or services may not be achieved, price and profitability targets may not prove feasible and customers may fail to accept our new products and services. External factors, such as compliance with regulations, competitive alternatives, counterparty or third-party performance and shifting market preferences, may also impact the successful implementation of a new line of business, a purchase of assets or liabilities or a new product or service. Furthermore, the burden on management and our information technology of introducing any new line of business, purchasing of assets or liabilities and/or introducing new products or services could have a significant impact on the effectiveness of our system of internal controls. Failure to successfully manage these risks could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 We depend on the accuracy and completeness of information about customers.
 In deciding whether to extend credit or enter into certain transactions, we rely on information furnished by or on behalf of customers, including financial statements, credit reports, tax returns and other financial information. We may also rely on representations from customers or other third parties, such as independent auditors, as to the accuracy and completeness of that information. Reliance on inaccurate or misleading information, financial statements, credit reports, tax returns or other financial information, including information falsely provided as a result of identity theft, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 We face strong competition for customers and may not succeed in implementing our business strategy.
 Our business strategy depends on our ability to remain competitive. There is strong competition for customers from existing financial institutions. Technology and other changes allow parties to complete financial transactions through alternative methods rather than through banks. Consumers can now maintain funds that would have historically been held as bank deposits in brokerage accounts, mutual funds or general-purpose reloadable prepaid cards. Consumers can also complete transactions, such as paying bills and/or transferring funds directly without the assistance of banks. The process of eliminating banks as intermediaries, known as "disintermediation," could result in the loss of fee income, as well as the loss of customer deposits and the related income generated from those deposits. Technology has also lowered barriers to entry and made it possible for non-bank, financial technology companies ("FinTechs") to offer products and services traditionally provided by banks. FinTechs

 continue to emerge and compete with traditional financial institutions across a wide variety of products and services. Consumers have demonstrated a growing willingness to obtain banking services from FinTechs. As a result, our ability to remain competitive is increasingly dependent upon our ability to maintain critical technological capabilities, and to identify and develop new, value-added products for existing and future customers. Our competitors also include large, publicly-traded, internet-based banks, as well as smaller internet-based banks; "brick and mortar" banks, including those that have implemented websites to facilitate online banking; and traditional banking institutions such as thrifts, finance companies, credit unions and mortgage banks. Some of these competitors have been in business for a long time and have broader name recognition and a more established customer base. Most of our competitors are larger and have greater financial and personnel resources. In order to compete profitably, we may need to reduce the rates we offer on loans and leases and investments and increase the rates we offer on deposits, which actions may adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
 To remain competitive, we believe we must successfully implement our business strategy. Our success depends on, among other things:
 • Having a large and increasing number of customers who use our bank for their banking needs;
 • Our ability to attract, hire and retain key personnel as our business grows;
 • Our ability to secure additional capital as needed;
 • The relevance of our products and services to customer needs and demands and the rate at which we and our competitors introduce or modify new products and services;
 • Our ability to offer products and services with fewer employees than competitors;
 • The satisfaction of our customers with our customer service;
 • Ease of use of our websites and smartphone applications;
 • Our ability to provide a secure and stable technology platform for financial services that provides us with reliable and effective operational, financial and information systems; and
 • Integration of our broker-dealer and registered investment-advisory businesses.
 If we are unable to implement our business strategy, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
 Our business depends on a strong brand, and failing to maintain and enhance our brand could hurt our ability to maintain or expand our customer base.
 The brand identities that we have developed will significantly contribute to the success of our business. Maintaining and enhancing the "Axos" brands (including our other trade styles and trade names) is critical to expanding our customer base. We believe that the importance of brand recognition will increase due to the relatively low barriers to entry for our "brick and mortar" competitors in the internet-based banking market. Our brands could be negatively impacted by a number of factors, including data privacy and security issues, service outages, product malfunctions, and trademark infringement. If we fail to maintain and enhance our brands generally, or if we incur excessive expenses in these efforts, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be adversely affected.
 Our reputation and business could be damaged by negative publicity.
 Reputational risk is inherent in our business. Negative publicity or reputational harm can result from actual or alleged conduct in a number of areas, including legal and regulatory compliance, lending practices, corporate governance, litigation, inadequate protection of customer data, illegal or unauthorized acts taken by third parties that supply products or services to us, the behavior of our employees, the customers with whom we have chosen to do business and negative publicity for other financial institutions. Negative publicity or information regarding our business and personnel, whether or not accurate or true, may be posted on social media or other Internet forums or published by news organizations. For example, a report issued in early June 2024, by a self-described short-seller, made a series of misleading, incomplete, and false allegations centered on the quality of our commercial real estate loan portfolio. The speed and pervasiveness with which information can be disseminated through these channels, in particular social media, may magnify risks relating to negative publicity. Damage to our reputation could adversely impact our ability to attract new, and maintain existing, loan and deposit customers, employees and business relationships, and, particularly with respect to our broker-dealer and registered investment adviser businesses, could result in the imposition of new regulatory requirements, operational restrictions, enhanced supervision and/or civil money penalties. Such damage could also adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital. Any such damage to our reputation could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.
 We could be exposed to fraud risks that affect our operations and reputation.

 We face significant risks related to various types of fraud, including fraud or theft by colleagues or outsiders and unauthorized transactions, which could result in financial loss, litigation, and damage to our reputation. We rely heavily on information provided by clients and third parties in conducting our business, and misrepresentations in this information can lead to funding loans that do not meet our expectations or on unfavorable terms. We bear the risk of loss associated with such misrepresentations, and it can be challenging to recover any monetary losses suffered. We have implemented various controls and security measures, but because of their inherent limitations, internal controls may not prevent or detect misrepresentations. Further, the failure of any of these controls could result in a failure to detect or mitigate fraud risks in a timely manner.
 Extreme weather conditions, natural disasters, rising sea levels, acts of war or terrorism, civil unrest, public health issues, or other adverse external events could harm our business.
 The potential impacts of extreme weather conditions, natural disasters and rising sea levels, could impact our operations as well as those of our customers and third party vendors upon which we rely. Our Bank is based in San Diego, California, and approximately 37.3% of our real estate loan portfolio was secured by real estate located in California at June 30, 2024. In addition, some of our computer systems that operate our internet websites and their back-up systems are located in San Diego, California. Historically, California has been vulnerable to natural disasters. Therefore, we are susceptible to the risks of natural disasters, such as earthquakes, wildfires, floods and mudslides, the nature and magnitude of which cannot be predicted and may be exacerbated by global climate change. Natural disasters could harm our operations directly through interference with communications, including the interruption or loss of our websites, which would prevent us from gathering deposits, originating loans and leases and processing and controlling our flow of business, as well as through the destruction of facilities and our operational, financial and management information systems. A natural disaster or recurring power outages may also impair the value of our largest class of assets, our loan and lease portfolio, which is comprised substantially of real estate loans. Losses from disasters for which borrowers are uninsured or under-insured may reduce borrowers' ability to repay mortgage loans. Natural disasters, acts of war or terrorism, civil unrest, public health issues, or other adverse external events could each negatively impact our business operations or the stability of our deposit base, cause significant property damage, adversely impact the values of collateral securing our loans and/or interrupt our borrowers' abilities to conduct their business in a manner to support their debt obligations, which could result in losses and increased provisions for credit losses. Although we have implemented several back-up systems and protections (and maintain standard business interruption insurance), these measures may not protect us fully from the effects of a natural disaster, acts of war or terrorism, civil unrest, public health issues, or other adverse external events. The occurrence of natural disasters, particularly in California, could have a material adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
 Increased regulation related to Environmental, Social, and Governance factors could negatively affect our operating results and could increase our operating expenses and those of our customers.
 There is increased public awareness and concern by governmental organizations on a variety of environmental, social, and sustainability matters, including climate change. This increased awareness may include more prescriptive reporting of environmental, social, and governance metrics, and other compliance requirements. Further legislation and regulatory requirements could increase the operating expenses of, or otherwise adversely impact, us and our customers. To the extent that we or our customers experience increases in costs, reductions in the value of assets, constraints on operations or similar concerns driven by changes in regulation relating to climate change, it could have an adverse effect on our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
 Our success depends in large part on the continuing efforts of key executives. If we are unable to retain these key personnel or attract, hire and retain others to oversee and manage our Company, our business could suffer.
 Our success depends substantially on the skill and abilities of our senior management team, including our Chief Executive Officer and President, Gregory Garrabrants, and other employees that perform multiple functions that might otherwise be performed by separate individuals at larger banks. The loss of the services of any of these individuals or other key employees, whether through termination of employment, disability or otherwise, could have a material adverse effect on our business. In addition, our ability to grow and manage our growth depends on our ability to continue to identify, attract, hire, train, retain and motivate highly skilled executive, technical, managerial, sales, marketing, customer service and professional personnel. The implementation of our business plan and our future success will depend on such qualified personnel. Competition for employees is intense in many areas of the financial services industry, and there is a risk that we will not be able to successfully attract, assimilate or retain sufficiently qualified personnel. If we fail to attract and retain the necessary personnel, or if the costs of employee compensation or benefits increase substantially, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
 We are exposed to risk of environmental liability with respect to properties to which we take title.

 In the course of our business, we may foreclose and take title to real estate, including commercial real estate, and could be subject to environmental liabilities with respect to those properties. We may be held liable to a governmental entity or to third parties for property damage, personal injury, investigation and clean-up costs incurred by these parties in connection with environmental contamination or may be required to investigate or clean up hazardous or toxic substances or chemical releases at a property. The costs associated with investigation or remediation activities could be substantial. In addition, if we are the owner or former owner of a contaminated site, we may be subject to common law claims by third parties based on damages and costs resulting from environmental contamination emanating from the property. If we become subject to significant environmental liabilities, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
 Technology Risks
 We rely on technology and information systems that may be disrupted, which would pose operational risks.
 We rely on technology and information systems for, among other things, communications, processing customer transactions, recordkeeping and financial controls. We rely substantially upon third-party service providers for our core banking and securities transactions technology and to protect us from system failures or disruptions. This reliance may mean that we will not be able to resolve operational problems internally or on a timely basis, which could lead to customer dissatisfaction or long-term disruption of our operations. Due to our interconnectivity with these third parties, we may be adversely affected if any of them is subject to a cyber-attack or other privacy or information security event, including those arising due to the use of mobile technology or a third-party cloud environment. Our operations depend upon our ability to replace a third-party service provider if it experiences difficulties that interrupt operations or if an essential third-party service terminates. If these service arrangements are terminated for any reason without an immediately available substitute arrangement, our operations may be severely interrupted or delayed. If such interruption or delay were to continue for a substantial period of time, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
 Privacy concerns relating to our technology could damage our reputation and deter current and potential customers from using our products and services.
 We are subject to various privacy, information security and data protection laws and regulations, such as the GLBA, which among other things requires privacy disclosures and maintenance of a robust security program. These laws and regulations are rapidly evolving and growing in complexity, and could have a significant impact on our current and planned privacy, data protection and information security-related practices, our collection, use, sharing, retention and safeguarding of consumer and employee information, and some of our current or planned business activities. The costs of compliance with these laws or regulatory actions may increase our operational costs, restrict our ability to provide certain products and services, reduce income from certain business initiatives, or result in interruptions or delays in the availability of systems.
 Concerns about our practices with regard to the collection, use, disclosure or security of personal information of our customers or other privacy related matters, even if unfounded, could damage our reputation and results of operations. While we strive to comply with all applicable data protection laws and regulations, as well as our own posted privacy policies, any failure or perceived failure to comply may result in proceedings or actions against us by government entities or others, or could cause us to lose customers, which could potentially have an adverse effect on our business.
 Misconduct by employees and third-party vendors could also result in fraudulent, improper or unauthorized activities on behalf of clients or improper use of confidential personal information. The Company may not be able to prevent employee errors or misconduct, and the precautions the Company takes to detect this type of activity might not be effective in all cases. Employee errors or misconduct could subject the Company to civil claims for negligence or regulatory enforcement actions, including fines and restrictions on our business.
 As nearly all of our products and services are smartphone and internet-based, the amount of data we store for our customers on our servers (including personal information) has been increasing and will continue to increase. Any systems failure or compromise of our security that results in the release of our customers' data could seriously limit the adoption of our products and services, as well as harm our reputation and brand and, therefore, our business. We may need to expend significant resources to protect against security breaches. System enhancements and updates may create risks associated with implementing new systems and integrating them with existing ones. Due to the complexity and interconnectedness of information technology systems, the process of enhancing our technical layers of defense can create a risk of systems disruptions and security issues. In addition, addressing certain information security vulnerabilities, such as hardware-based vulnerabilities, may affect the performance of our information technology systems. The ability of our hardware and software providers to deliver patches and updates to mitigate vulnerabilities in a timely manner can introduce additional risks, particularly when a vulnerability is being actively exploited by threat actors.
 The risk that these types of events could seriously harm our business is likely to increase as we add more customers

 and expand the number of smartphone and internet-based products and services we offer.
 We have risks of systems failure and disruptions to operations.
 The computer systems, internet connectivity and network infrastructure utilized by us and others could be vulnerable to unforeseen problems. This is true of both our internally developed systems and the systems of our third-party service providers. Our operations are dependent upon our ability to protect computer equipment against damage from fire, power loss, telecommunication failure or similar catastrophic events.
 Any damage or failure that causes an interruption in our operations could adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.
 If our security measures are breached, or if our services are subject to information security incidents that degrade or deny the ability of customers to access our products and services, our products and services may be perceived as not being secure, customers may curtail or stop using our products and services, and we may incur significant legal and financial exposure.
 Our products and services involve the storage and transmission of customers' proprietary information, and security breaches could expose us to a risk of loss of this information, litigation, and potential liability. Through our cybersecurity risk management program, we employ cybersecurity measures that are designed to prevent, detect, and respond to cybersecurity incidents, including management-level engagement and corporate governance, formalized risk management processes, advanced technical controls, incident response planning, frequent vulnerability testing, vendor management, intrusion monitoring, the maintenance of a security awareness program, and established partnerships with appropriate government and law enforcement agencies. These procedures cannot assure we will be fully protected from a cybersecurity incident. Our security measures may be breached due to the actions of organized crime, hackers, terrorists, nation-states, activists and other outside parties, employee error, failure to follow security procedures, malfeasance, or otherwise. As a result, an unauthorized party may obtain access to our data or our customers' data. In addition, to access our products and services, our customers use personal computers, smartphones, tablets, and other mobile devices that are beyond our control environment. Outside parties may attempt to fraudulently induce employees or customers to disclose sensitive information in order to gain access to our data or our customers' data. Other types of information security incidents may include computer viruses, malicious or destructive code, denial-of-service attacks, ransomware or ransom demands to not expose security vulnerabilities in the Company's systems or the systems of third parties. Further, the use of AI by cybercriminals may increase the frequency and severity of cybersecurity attacks against us or our service providers and others on whom we rely. Any such breach or unauthorized access could result in significant legal and financial exposure, damage to our reputation, and a loss of confidence in the security of our products and services that could potentially have an adverse effect on our business. Because the techniques used to obtain unauthorized access, disable or degrade service or sabotage systems change frequently and often are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques or to implement adequate preventative measures. If an actual or perceived breach of our security occurs, including those of our third-party vendors, such as hacking or identity theft, it could cause serious negative consequences, including significant disruption of our operations, misappropriation of confidential information, or damage to computers or systems, and may result in violations of applicable privacy and other laws, financial loss and loss of confidence in our security measures. As a result, we could lose customers, suffer employee productivity losses, incur technology replacement and incident response costs, be subject to additional regulatory scrutiny, and be subject to civil litigation and possible financial liability, any of which may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
 We are heavily reliant on technology, and a failure in effectively implementing technology initiatives or anticipating future technology needs or demands could adversely affect our business or financial results.
 We depend on technology to deliver our products and services and to conduct our business and operations. To remain technologically competitive and operationally efficient, we invest in system upgrades, new solutions, and other technology initiatives. Many of these initiatives take a significant amount of time to develop and implement, are tied to critical systems, and require substantial financial, human, and other resources. Although we take steps to mitigate the risks and uncertainties associated with these initiatives, no assurance can be provided that they will be implemented on time, within budget, or without negative financial, operational, or customer impact or that, once implemented, they will perform as we or our customers expect. We may not succeed in anticipating or keeping pace with future technology needs, the technology demands of customers, or the competitive landscape for technology. If we are not able to anticipate and keep pace with existing and future technology needs, our business, financial results, or reputation could be negatively impacted.
 The development and use of AI present risks and challenges that may adversely impact our business.

 We or our third-party vendors, clients or counterparties may develop or incorporate AI technology in certain business processes, services or products. The development and use of AI presents a number of risks and challenges to our business. The legal and regulatory environment relating to AI is uncertain and rapidly evolving, both in the United States and internationally, and includes regulatory schemes targeted specifically at AI as well as provisions in intellectual property, privacy, consumer protection, employment and other laws applicable to the use of AI. These evolving laws and regulations could require changes in our implementation of AI technology and increase our compliance costs and the risk of non-compliance. AI models, particularly generative AI models, may produce output or take action that is incorrect, that result in the release of private, confidential or proprietary information, that reflect biases included in the data on which they are trained, infringe on the intellectual property rights of others or that is otherwise harmful. In addition, the complexity of many AI models makes it challenging to understand why they are generating particular outputs. This limited transparency increases the challenges associated with assessing the proper operation of AI models, understanding and monitoring the capabilities of the AI models, reducing erroneous output, eliminating bias and complying with regulations that require documentation or explanation of the basis on which decisions are made.
 Further, we may rely on AI models developed by third parties, and would be dependent in part on the manner in which those third parties develop, train and deploy their models, including risks arising from the inclusion of any unauthorized material in the training data for their models, the effectiveness of the steps these third parties have taken to limit the risks associated with the output of their models and other matters over which we may have limited visibility. Any of these risks could expose us to liability or adverse legal or regulatory consequences and harm our reputation and the public perception of our business or the effectiveness of our security measures.
 We are also exposed to risks arising from the use of AI technologies by bad actors to commit fraud and misappropriate funds and to facilitate cyberattacks. Generative AI, if used to perpetrate fraud or launch cyberattacks, could create panic at a particular financial institution or exchange, which could pose a threat to financial stability.
 Risks Associated with our Common Stock
 The market price of our common stock may be volatile.
 Stock price volatility may make it more difficult for our stockholders to resell their common stock when desired. Our common stock price may fluctuate significantly due to a variety of factors that include the following:
 • actual or expected variations in quarterly results of operations;
 • recommendations by securities analysts;
 • operating and stock price performance of comparable companies, as deemed by investors;
 • news reports relating to trends, concerns, and other issues in the financial services industry, including bank failures;
 • perceptions in the marketplace about our Company or competitors;
 • new technology used, or services offered, by competitors;
 • significant acquisitions or business combinations, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, or capital commitments by, or involving, our Company or competitors;
 • failure to integrate acquisitions or realize expected benefits from acquisitions;
 • changes in government regulations; and
 • geopolitical conditions, such as acts or threats of terrorism or military action.
 General market fluctuations; industry factors; political conditions; and general economic conditions and events, such as economic slowdowns, recessions, interest rate changes, or credit loss trends, could cause our common stock price to decrease regardless of operating results.
 Provisions in our Certificate of Incorporation, By-laws and Delaware laws might discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of our Company or changes in our management and, therefore, depress the trading price of our common stock.
 Provisions of our Certification of Incorporation, by-laws and Delaware laws may discourage, delay or prevent a merger, acquisition or other change in control that stockholders may consider favorable, including transactions in which you might otherwise receive a premium for your shares of our common stock. These provisions may also prevent or frustrate attempts by our stockholders to replace or remove our management. These provisions include:
 • supermajority voting provisions providing that certain sections of our Certificate of Incorporation and our By-laws may not be amended or repealed by our stockholders without the affirmative vote of the holders of at

 least 75% of the voting power, and requiring the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 75% of the voting power to remove a director or directors and only for cause;
 • our classified Board of Directors, which may tend to discourage a third-party from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us since the classification of our Board of Directors generally increases the difficulty of replacing a majority of directors;
 • advance notice provisions requiring stockholders seeking to nominate candidates to be elected as directors at an annual meeting or to bring business before an annual meeting to comply with the written procedure specified in our By-laws;
 • the inability of stockholders to act by written consent or to call special meetings;
 • the ability of our Board of Directors to make, alter or repeal our by-laws;
 • the ability of our Board of Directors to designate the terms of and issue new series of preferred stock without stockholder approval;
 • the additional shares of authorized common stock and preferred stock available for issuance under our Certificate of Incorporation, which could be issued at such times, under such circumstances and with such terms and conditions as to impede a change in control.
 In addition, we are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, which generally prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any of a broad range of business combinations with an interested stockholder for a period of three years following the date on which the stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless such transactions are approved by our Board of Directors. The existence of the foregoing provisions and anti-takeover measures could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of our common stock. They could also deter potential acquirers of our Company, thereby reducing the likelihood that you could receive a premium for your common stock in an acquisition.
 General Risk Factors
 Our acquisitions involve integration and other risks.
 From time to time we undertake acquisitions of assets, deposits, lines of business and other companies consistent with our operating and growth strategies. Acquisitions generally involve a number of risks and challenges, including our ability to integrate the acquired operations and the associated internal controls and regulatory functions into our current operations, our ability to retain key personnel of the acquired operations, our ability to limit the outflow of acquired deposits and successfully retain and manage acquired assets, our ability to attract new customers and generate new assets in areas not previously served, and the possible assumption of risks and liabilities related to litigation or regulatory proceedings involving the acquired operations. Additionally, no assurance can be given that the operation of acquisitions would not adversely affect our existing profitability, that we would be able to achieve results in the future similar to those achieved by the acquired operations, that we would be able to compete effectively in the markets served by the acquired operations, or that we would be able to manage any growth resulting from the transaction effectively. We also face the risk that the anticipated benefits of any acquisition may not be realized fully or at all, or within the time period expected.
 As a public company, we face the risk of stockholder lawsuits and other related or unrelated litigation, particularly if we experience declines in the price of our common stock.
 We are subject to a variety of litigation pertaining to fiduciary and other claims and legal proceedings. Currently, there are certain legal proceedings pending against us in the ordinary course of business. While the outcome of any legal proceeding is inherently uncertain, we believe any liabilities arising from pending legal matters have been adequately accrued for based on the probability of a charge. However, if actual results differ from our expectations, it could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. For a detailed discussion on current legal proceedings, see Item 3 - "Legal Proceedings."
 Our controls and procedures may fail or be circumvented.
 We regularly review and update our internal controls, disclosure controls and procedures, compliance monitoring activities and corporate governance policies and procedures. Any system of controls, however well-designed and operated, is based in part on certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurances that the objectives of the system are met. Any failure or circumvention of our controls and procedures or failure to comply with regulations related to controls and procedures could result in regulatory investigations or penalties, reduce investor confidence, or otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, reputation and financial condition. In addition, if we identify material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting or are required to restate our financial statements, we could be required to implement expensive and time-consuming remedial measures. We could lose investor

 confidence in the accuracy and completeness of our financial reports and potentially subject us to litigation. Any material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting or restatement of our financial statements could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, reputation, and financial condition.

 ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS

 ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY
 Risk Management and Strategy
 Our risk management processes and procedures include a cybersecurity risk management program as part of its multiple technical layers of defense. Through our cybersecurity risk management program, we have designed and implemented processes for identifying, assessing, preventing, and managing material risks from cybersecurity threats to our critical computer networks, third-party service providers, communication systems, hardware and software, and our critical data, including confidential company and customer information. As part of our cybersecurity risk management program, we evaluate our various technical layers of defense on an ongoing basis including performing incident response planning, frequent vulnerability testing, vendor risk management, intrusion monitoring, and maintaining a security awareness program. We invest in our people, processes and systems and maintain partnerships with appropriate government and law enforcement agencies to help monitor cybersecurity threats as well as prevent and respond to cybersecurity incidents.
 We may utilize various resources that we deem necessary based on actual or potential threats and vulnerabilities to Axos, including engaging independent third-party assessors, consultants and/or auditors to help evaluate the effectiveness of our cybersecurity risk management program, processes, and controls.
 Our overall enterprise risk management includes a third-party risk management program, through which we identify, monitor, and manage cybersecurity risks inherent in or related to external service providers and other third parties. Through our business lines, we actively assess and oversee our third-party service providers against requirements set by our third-party risk management program and our cybersecurity risk management program.
 We have not identified any cybersecurity incidents that have materially affected Axos or its business strategy, results of operations, or financial condition. However, we face ongoing cybersecurity risks which may materially affect the Company in the future. Refer to the Risk Factors section for additional information.
 Governance
 Our Board of Directors includes cybersecurity risk management as part of its general oversight function and oversees the cybersecurity risk management program and any identified cybersecurity risks and incidents. To facilitate its oversight, the Board of Directors receive regular updates from management on cybersecurity.
 Our Chief Risk Officer has primary responsibility for our enterprise risk management program, including oversight of our cybersecurity risk management program. Our Chief Information Security Officer has primary responsibility for our cybersecurity risk management program and supervises the Company's cybersecurity personnel. Both individuals have extensive work experience in various roles involving risk and compliance, including cybersecurity and information security.
 The individuals involved in our cybersecurity risk management program are informed about developments in cybersecurity risks and related matters through a variety of channels inside the Company, including but not limited to, briefings from internal teams and alerts and reports produced by various measures we may deploy, as well as information obtained from external sources in the government and private sector, including external third party consultants retained by Axos.
 Our Chief Information Security Officer and Chief Risk Officer report information on cybersecurity risks to the Board of Directors on a regular basis.

 We intend to retain any earnings to finance the growth and development of our business and common stock repurchases. Our Board of Directors has never declared or paid any cash dividends on our common stock and does not expect to do so in the foreseeable future. Our ability to pay dividends, should our Board of Directors elect to do so, depends largely upon the ability of our subsidiaries to declare and pay dividends to us. Future dividends will depend primarily upon our earnings, financial condition and need for funds, as well as government policies and regulations applicable to us and our bank that limit the amount that may be paid as dividends without prior approval.
 ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES
 Common Stock Repurchases. On April 27, 2023, the Company announced a program to repurchase up to $100 million of its common stock and on February 12, 2024, the Company announced a program to repurchase up to an additional $100 million of its common stock. The Company may repurchase shares on the open market or through privately negotiated transactions at times and prices considered appropriate, at the discretion of the Company, and subject to its assessment of alternative uses of capital, stock trading price, general market conditions and regulatory factors. The repurchase program does not obligate the Company to acquire any specific number of shares. The share repurchase program will continue in effect until terminated by the Board of Directors of the Company. Shares of common stock repurchased under this plan will be held as treasury shares. The Company has repurchased a total of $97.0 million or 2,541,254 common shares at an average price of $38.18 per share and there remains $106.5 million of availability under the programs. There have been no purchases under the 2024 authorization. The Company accounts for treasury stock using the cost method as a reduction of stockholders' equity in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.
 Net Settlement of Restricted Stock Unit Awards. The Company's amended and restated 2014 Stock Incentive Plan, permits net settlement of stock issuances related to equity awards for purposes of payment of a grantee's minimum income tax obligation. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, there were 336,110 restricted stock unit award shares which were retained by the Company and converted to cash at the average rate of $48.17 per share to fund the grantee's income tax obligations.

 The following table sets forth our market repurchases of Axos common stock and the Axos common shares retained in connection with net settlement of restricted stock unit awards during the fourth fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024.

 ITEM 6. [Reserved]

 ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 The following discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that are based upon current expectations. Forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results and the timing of events could differ materially from those expressed or implied in our forward-looking statements due to various important factors, including those set forth under "Risk Factors" in Item 1A. and elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The following discussion and analysis should be read together with the Consolidated Financial Statements, including the related notes included elsewhere in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
 OVERVIEW
 The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Axos Financial, Inc. ("Axos") and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Axos Bank (the "Bank" or "Axos Bank") and Axos Nevada Holding, LLC ("Axos Nevada Holding"), collectively, the "Company." Axos, the Bank, two lending-related trust entities and Axos Nevada Holding comprise substantially all of the Company's assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses. The Bank, its wholly owned subsidiaries, and the activities of two lending-related trust entities, constitute the Banking Business Segment. Axos Nevada Holding owns the companies constituting the Securities Business Segment, including Axos Securities, LLC, Axos Clearing LLC ("Axos Clearing"), a clearing broker-dealer, Axos Invest, Inc., a registered investment advisor, and Axos Invest LLC, an introducing broker-dealer. With approximately $22.9 billion in assets, Axos Bank provides consumer and business banking products through its low-cost distribution channels and affinity partners. Axos Clearing and Axos Invest LLC, provide comprehensive securities clearing services to introducing broker-dealers and registered investment advisor correspondents and digital investment advisory services to retail investors, respectively. Axos Financial, Inc.'s common stock is listed on the NYSE under the symbol "AX" and is a component of the Russell 2000 Index and the S&P SmallCap 600 Index.

 MERGERS AND ACQUISITIONS
 From time to time, we undertake acquisitions or similar transactions consistent with our operating and growth strategies. On August 2, 2021, Axos Clearing, LLC, acquired certain assets and liabilities of E*TRADE Advisor Services ("EAS"), the registered investment advisor custody business of Morgan Stanley. This business was rebranded as AAS. AAS adds incremental fee income, a turnkey technology platform used by independent RIAs for trading and custody services, and low-cost deposits that can be used to generate fee income from other bank partners or to fund loan growth at Axos Bank. The purchase price of $54.8 million consisted entirely of cash consideration paid upon acquisition and working capital adjustments. This acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, tangible and intangible assets acquired (and liabilities assumed) are recorded at their estimated fair values as of the date of acquisition.
 On August 23, 2023, the Company acquired approximately $52 million of marine floor financing loans at par value along with other assets for an additional $2 million, primarily consisting of servicing rights as well as certain employees. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition and such assets are included in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2024.
 On December 7, 2023, the Company acquired from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") two loan portfolios, comprising both purchased credit deteriorated ("PCD") and non-PCD loans, with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $1.3 billion at a fair value of $901.5 million, reflecting a non-credit-related discount of $306.8 million and an allowance for credit losses on PCD loans of $70.1 million, (the "FDIC Loan Purchase"). Also included in the acquisition were certain related interest rate derivative assets and liabilities with a fair value of $109.0 million and $104.4 million, respectively, as of the date of the acquisition and whose maturities generally align with those of the loans acquired. The acquisition of the non-PCD loans and interest rate derivatives was accounted for as a purchase of financial assets and liabilities, and the Company recognized a $92.4 million gain on the transaction included in "Gain on acquisition" in the Consolidated Statement of Income.
 There were no other significant acquisitions undertaken during fiscal years 2024, 2023 or 2022.

 CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
 The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations is based upon our Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make a number of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the Consolidated Financial Statements. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions based upon historical experience and various factors and circumstances. We believe that our estimates and assumptions are reasonable under the circumstances. However,

 actual results may differ significantly from these estimates and assumptions that could have a material effect on the carrying value of assets and liabilities at the balance sheet dates and our results of operations for the reporting periods.
 Critical accounting estimates are those that we consider most important to the portrayal of our financial condition and results of operations because they require our most difficult judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates that are inherently uncertain. We have identified critical accounting policies and estimates below. In addition, these critical accounting estimates are discussed further in Note 1—"Organizations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
 Securities. The Company's securities held as trading and held as available for sale are carried at fair value. Estimating fair value for these securities requires judgment, the degree of which is largely dependent on the amount of observable market data available to the Company. For securities valued using techniques that use significant unobservable inputs and are therefore classified as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the Company incorporates significantly more judgment to estimate the security's fair value, as Level 3 valuation inputs inherently have increased uncertainty compared to inputs used when estimating the fair value of securities classified as Level 2.
 The Company's estimate of fair value for non-agency securities classified as Level 3 is highly subjective and is based on estimates of voluntary prepayments, default rates, severities and discount margins, which are forecasted for each month over the remaining life of each security. Changes in one or more of these inputs can cause a significant change in the estimated fair value.
 For further information on Securities, refer to Note 1—"Organizations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," Note 3—"Fair Value" and Note 4—"Available-For-Sale Securities" in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
 Allowance for Credit Losses. The Company maintains an allowance for credit losses for its held-for-investment loan and net investment in leases portfolio as well as lending commitments, excluding loans measured at fair value in accordance with applicable accounting standards, which represents management's estimate of the expected lifetime credit losses on the loans and net investment in leases. The estimate of the allowance for credit losses includes both a quantitative and qualitative assessment, both of which include variables that are subject to uncertainty.
 The quantitative assessment reflects modeled outputs utilizing economic scenarios and forecasts, which are subject to uncertainty, and is also based on the Company's current and expected future economic outlook. Key economic variables considered in the quantitative assessment include factors such as the U.S. unemployment rate and interest rates, both of which impact the default rate of the loan pools. Additionally, the results of the quantitative assessment are impacted by the third-party macroeconomic forecasts across various economic scenarios. The Company periodically reviews and adjusts the weighting of scenarios based on management's allowance for credit losses ("ACL") framework. Adjustment of scenario weighting away from the baseline scenario to the adverse scenario should increase the allowance for credit losses on the Company's held-for-investment loan and net investment in leases portfolio, all else remaining equal. Economic forecasts that impacted management's assessment of scenario weightings included interest rates, inflation, supply chain constraints and geopolitical unrest. Changes in one or more of these variables can cause a significant change in the estimate of the allowance for credit losses. There were no significant changes in these variables during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024.
 Additionally, management performs a qualitative assessment to address inherent limitations in the model and data. Qualitative criteria used in the assessment, as outlined in Note 1—"Organizations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in the Consolidated Financial Statements, can require significant judgment and is subject to uncertainty.
 For further information on the allowance for credit losses, refer to Note 1—"Organizations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" and Note 5—"Loans & Allowance for Credit Losses" in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Evaluating goodwill for impairment requires significant judgment and requires the use of certain unobservable inputs that are subject to uncertainty. To test for impairment, the Company first performs a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after completing the qualitative assessment, the Company determines it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it performs a quantitative goodwill impairment test. The qualitative assessment requires management judgment in assessing factors including, but not limited to, the macroeconomic and industry environment as well as Company-specific factors. If the Company performs a quantitative test, management applies significant judgment in deriving valuation inputs, evaluating current operating results, estimating future cash flows, assessing market conditions and considering other factors. Factors used to calculate the fair value of a reporting unit are subject to uncertainty and can change from year to year based on availability and observability.

 Additionally, evaluating other intangible assets for impairment requires management to use significant judgment. The valuation of other intangible assets is primarily determined using discounted cash flows, market comparisons and recent transactions, the inputs for which may be unobservable and are subject to uncertainty.
 For further information on Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, refer to Note 1—"Organizations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" and Note 10—"Goodwill and Intangible Assets" in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

 USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
 In addition to the results presented in accordance with GAAP, this report includes non-GAAP financial measures such as adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per common share, and tangible book value per common share. Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not audited. Readers should be aware of these limitations and should be cautious as to their reliance on such measures. We believe the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this release enhance investors' understanding of our business and performance, and our management uses these measures when it internally evaluates the performance of our business and makes operating decisions. However, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for GAAP basis financial measures.
 We define "adjusted earnings," a non-GAAP financial measure, as net income without the after-tax impact of non-recurring acquisition-related items (including amortization of intangible assets related to acquisitions and certain gains and provisions resulting from the Company's FDIC Loan Purchase), and other costs (unusual or non-recurring charges). Adjusted earnings per diluted common share ("adjusted EPS") is calculated by dividing non-GAAP adjusted earnings by the average number of diluted common shares outstanding during the period. We believe the non-GAAP measures of adjusted earnings and adjusted EPS provide useful information about the Company's operating performance. We believe excluding the non-recurring acquisition-related costs, and other costs provides investors with an alternative understanding our core business.
 Below is a reconciliation of net income and diluted EPS, the nearest comparable GAAP measure, to adjusted earnings and adjusted EPS (Non-GAAP):

 We define "tangible book value," a non-GAAP financial measure, as book value adjusted for goodwill and other intangible assets. Tangible book value is calculated using common stockholders' equity minus servicing rights, goodwill and other intangible assets. Tangible book value per common share is calculated by dividing tangible book value by the common shares outstanding at the end of the period. We believe tangible book value per common share is useful in evaluating the Company's capital strength, financial condition, and ability to manage potential losses.

 2 Interest rate spread represents the difference between the weighted-average yield on interest-earning assets and the weighted-average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities.
 3 Net interest margin represents net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets.

 RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 Our results of operations depend on our net interest income, which is the difference between interest income on interest-earning assets and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities. Our net interest income is subject to competitive factors in online banking and other markets. Our net interest income is reduced by our current estimate of credit losses. We earn non-interest income primarily from mortgage banking activities, banking products and service activity, asset custody services, broker-dealer clearing and related services, prepayment fee income from multifamily and commercial borrowers who repay their loans before maturity and from gains on sales of other loans and available-for-sale securities. Losses on sales of available-for-sale securities reduce non-interest income. The largest component of non-interest expense is salary and benefits, which is a function of the number of personnel, which increased to 1,781 full-time employees at June 30, 2024, from 1,455 full-time employees at June 30, 2023. We are subject to federal and state income taxes, and our effective tax rates were 29.19%, 28.85% and 29.19% for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024, 2023, and 2022, respectively. Other factors that affect our results of operations include expenses relating to data and operational processing, advertising, depreciation, occupancy, professional services, and other miscellaneous expenses.

 COMPARISON OF THE FISCAL YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024 AND JUNE 30, 2023
 Net Interest Income. The following table sets forth the effects of changing rates and volumes on our net interest income. Information is provided with respect to (i) effects on interest income and interest expense attributable to changes in volume (changes in volume multiplied by prior rate); and (ii) effects on interest income and interest expense attributable to changes in rate (changes in rate multiplied by prior volume). The change in interest due to both volume and rate has been allocated proportionally to each based on the relative changes attributable to volume and changes attributable to rate.

 Interest Income. For fiscal year 2024, interest income increased $498.5 million, or 43.1%, compared to interest income in fiscal year 2023, primarily reflecting higher rates earned and average balances of loans and interest-earning deposits in other financial institutions.
 Interest Expense. For fiscal year 2024, interest expense increased $320.2 million, or 85.6% compared to interest expense in fiscal year 2023, primarily attributable to higher rates and average balances of interest-bearing deposits.
 Provision for Credit Losses. For fiscal year 2024, provision for credit losses increased $8.3 million compared to the provision for credit losses in fiscal year 2023. See "Asset Quality and Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans" for discussion of our allowance for credit losses and the related provision for credit losses.

 For fiscal year 2024, non-interest income increased $102.2 million, or 84.8% compared to non-interest income in fiscal year 2023. The increase was primarily the result of a $92.4 million gain on the FDIC Loan Purchase, increased advisory fee income reflecting increased average assets under custody and higher mortgage banking and servicing rights income reflecting a $1.9 million fair value gain related to marine loan servicing rights.

 For fiscal year 2024, non-interest expense increased $68.5 million, or 15.3%, compared to fiscal year 2023, primarily due to increases of:
 •$46.6 million in salaries and related costs primarily due to increased headcount and salaries, reflecting increases in the broker-dealer and lending businesses;
 •$8.8 million in data and operational processing expense primarily due to ongoing enhancements of core processing systems, customer interfaces and custody technology programs; and
 •$7.3 million in professional services primarily due to increased legal and consulting services.
 The increases were partially offset by a $14.4 million decrease in general and administrative expenses, primarily reflecting the absence of a $16.0 million accrual in the prior year for an adverse legal judgment that has not been finalized.
 Income Tax Expense. For fiscal year 2024, income tax expense increased $60.9 million, or 48.9% compared to income tax expense in fiscal year 2023. The fiscal year 2024 effective tax rate of 29.19%, increased by 0.34% compared to fiscal year 2023. The Company received federal and state tax credits for both fiscal years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023. These tax credits decreased the effective tax rate by approximately 0.58% and 0.45%, respectively.

 SEGMENT RESULTS
 The Company determines reportable segments based on the services offered, the significance of the services offered, the significance of those services to the Company's financial condition and operating results and management's regular review of the operating results of those services. The Company operates through two operating segments: the Banking Business Segment and the Securities Business Segment. In order to reconcile the two segments to the consolidated totals, the Company includes parent-only activities and intercompany eliminations. Inter-segment transactions are eliminated in consolidation and primarily include non-interest income earned by the Securities Business Segment and non-interest expense incurred by the

 Banking Business Segment for cash sorting fees related to deposits sourced from Securities Business Segment customers, as well as interest expense paid by the Banking Business Segment to each of the wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company and to the Company itself for their operating cash held on deposit with the Banking Business Segment.
 The following tables present the operating results of the segments:

 Banking Business Segment
 For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, we had pre-tax income of $638.7 million compared to pre-tax income of $402.9 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the increase in pre-tax income was primarily related to the increase in net interest income due largely to growth in the volume and rates earned on loans and leases, primarily from commercial & industrial lending, and a $92.4 million gain on the FDIC Loan Purchase within non-interest income, partially offset by an increase in volume and rates on interest-bearing demand and savings deposits.
 We consider the ratios shown in the table below to be key indicators of the performance of our Banking Business Segment:

 For the fiscal year 2024, the Banking Business Segment's net interest income increased $174.5 million, or 22.5%, compared to net interest income in fiscal year 2023. The growth of net interest income is reflective of higher rates earned and average balances of loans and interest-earning deposits in other financial institutions, partially offset by higher rates and average balances of interest-bearing deposits.
 For the fiscal year 2024, the Banking Business Segment's non-interest income increased $96.8 million, or 229.1%, compared to non-interest income in fiscal year 2023. The increase in non-interest income was primarily the result of a gain on FDIC Loan Purchase and an increase in mortgage banking servicing rights income from a marine loan servicing rights fair value gain.
 For the fiscal year 2024, the Banking Business Segment's non-interest expense increased $27.3 million, or 7.0%, compared to non-interest expense in fiscal 2023. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily driven by increased salaries and related costs reflecting growth in lending business.
 For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, our Securities Business Segment had income before taxes of $40.1 million compared to income before taxes of $59.6 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023.

 For the fiscal year 2024, the Securities Business Segment's net interest income increased $5.2 million, or 24.5%, compared to fiscal year 2023, resulting in large part from higher rates earned on securities borrowed and margin lending, partially offset by higher rates paid on securities loaned. In the Securities Business Segment, interest is earned through margin loan balances, securities borrowed and cash deposit balances. Interest expense is incurred from cash borrowed through bank lines and securities lending.

 For the fiscal year 2024, the Securities Business Segment's non-interest income decreased $12.1 million, or 8.6%, compared to fiscal year 2023, primarily attributable to lower broker-dealer fee income, resulting from lower cash-sorting balances at non-affiliated banks, partially offset by increased advisory fee income.
 For the fiscal year 2024, the Securities Business Segment's non-interest expense increased $12.5 million, or 12.2%, compared to non-interest expense in fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, primarily related to higher salaries and related costs and broker-dealer clearing charges.

 For a comparison of our fiscal year 2023 results compared to fiscal year 2022 results, see Part II, Item 7, "Comparison of the Fiscal Years Ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022" in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year-ended June 30, 2023 filed with the SEC.

 FINANCIAL CONDITION
 Our total assets increased $2.6 billion, or 12.3%, to $22.9 billion, as of June 30, 2024, up from $20.3 billion at June 30, 2023. The increase in total assets primarily reflects growth in total loans of $2.8 billion on a net basis, driven by an increase in commercial and industrial - non-real estate loans, reflecting higher balances in capital call facilities. Total liabilities increased by $2.2 billion or 11.6%, to $20.6 billion at June 30, 2024, up from $18.4 billion at June 30, 2023. The increase in total liabilities primarily reflects growth in deposits of $2.2 billion. Stockholders' equity increased by $373.4 million, or 19.5%, to $2.3 billion at June 30, 2024, up from $1.9 billion at June 30, 2023. The increase in stockholders' equity primarily reflects net income of $450.0 million, partially offset by repurchases of $97.0 million of treasury stock.

 The ratio of the loan amount to the value of the property securing the loan is called the loan-to-value ratio ("LTV"). The following table shows the LTVs of our loan portfolio on weighted-average and median bases at June 30, 2024. The LTVs were calculated by dividing (a) the current outstanding loan principal balance of both the first and second liens of the borrower by (b) the appraisal value at the time of origination of the property securing the loan.

 Asset Quality. Loans reaching 90 days past due are generally placed on nonaccrual status. Loans not yet reaching 90 days past due may be placed on non-accrual status based on management's assessment of the aging of contractual principal amounts due, among other factors. For an aging analysis of the Company's loans held for investment as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, see Note 5—"Loans & Allowance for Credit Losses" in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Non-performing assets include nonaccrual loans plus other real estate owned and repossessed vehicles.

 LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 Liquidity. Our sources of liquidity include deposits, borrowings, payments and maturities of outstanding loans, sales of loans, maturities or sales of available-for-sale securities and other short-term investments. While scheduled loan payments and maturing available-for-sale securities and short-term investments are relatively predictable sources of funds, deposit flows and loan prepayments are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition. We generally invest excess funds in overnight deposits and other short-term interest-earning assets. We use cash generated through retail deposits, our largest funding source, to offset the cash utilized in lending and investing activities. Our short-term interest-earning available-for-sale securities are used to provide liquidity for lending and other operational requirements.
 Axos Bank can borrow up to 35% of its total assets from the FHLB. Borrowings are collateralized by pledging certain mortgage loans and available-for-sale securities to the FHLB. Based on loans and securities pledged at June 30, 2024, we had a total borrowing availability of an additional $3,012.6 million available immediately and an additional $4,229.1 million available with additional collateral, for advances from the FHLB for terms of up to ten years. As of June 30, 2024, the Company pledged $4,942.8 million of loans and $149.0 thousand of securities to the FHLB to secure its borrowings. At June 30, 2024, we had $275.0 million in unsecured federal funds lines of credit with six major banks under which there were no borrowings outstanding.
 The Bank can borrow short-term from the FRBSF Discount Window. At June 30, 2024, the Bank did not have any borrowings outstanding and the amount available from this source was $6,976.2 million. Borrowings are collateralized by pledging commercial loans and consumer loans. At June 30, 2024, the Bank had $8,197.2 million of loans pledged to the FRBSF.
 Our future borrowings will depend on the growth of our lending operations and our exposure to interest rate risk. We expect to continue to use deposits and advances from the FHLB as the primary sources of funding our future asset growth.
 Axos Clearing has a $150.0 million third-party secured line of credit available for borrowing. As of June 30, 2024, there was no amount outstanding. These credit facilities bear interest at rates based on the Federal Funds rate and borrowings are due upon demand.
 Axos Clearing has a $110.0 million unsecured line of credit available for limited purpose borrowing. As of June 30, 2024, there was no amount outstanding after elimination of intercompany balances. This credit facility bears interest at rates based on the Federal Funds rate and borrowings are due upon demand. The unsecured line of credit requires Axos Clearing to

 operate in accordance with specific covenants with respect to capital and debt ratios. Axos Clearing was in compliance with all covenants as of June 30, 2024.
 In December 2004, we completed a transaction that resulted in the issuance of $5.2 million of junior subordinated debentures for our Company with a stated maturity date of February 23, 2035. We have the right to redeem the debentures in whole (but not in part) on or after specific dates, at a redemption price specified in the indenture plus any accrued but unpaid interest through the redemption date. Interest accrues at the rate of three-month term SOFR plus 26.161 basis points, for a rate of 7.99% as of June 30, 2024, with interest paid quarterly.
 In January 2019, we issued subordinated notes totaling $7.5 million to the principal stockholders of Cor Securities Holdings, Inc. ("COR Securities") in an equal principal amount, with a maturity of 15 months, to serve as the source of payment of indemnification obligations of the principal stakeholders of COR Securities under the applicable merger agreement. Interest accrues at a rate of 6.25% per annum. During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, $0.1 million of subordinated loans were repaid. The Company has made an indemnification claim against the $7.4 million remaining amount.
 In September 2020, the Company completed the sale of $175 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.875% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due October 1, 2030 (the "2030 Notes"). The 2030 Notes mature on October 1, 2030 and accrue interest at a fixed rate per annum equal to 4.875%, payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing on April 1, 2021. From and including October 1, 2025, to, but excluding October 1, 2030 or the date of early redemption, the 2030 Notes will bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to the three-month term SOFR plus a spread of 476 basis points, payable quarterly in arrears on January 1, April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing on January 2026. The 2030 Notes may be redeemed on or after October 1, 2025, which date may be extended at the Company's discretion, at a redemption price equal to principal plus accrued and unpaid interest, subject to certain conditions.
 In February 2022, the Company completed the sale of $150 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.00% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes (the "2032 Notes"). The 2032 Notes are obligations only of Axos Financial, Inc. The 2032 Notes mature on March 1, 2032 and accrue interest at a fixed rate per annum equal to 4.00%, payable semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on September 1, 2022. From and including March 1, 2027, to, but excluding March 1, 2032 or the date of early redemption, the 2032 Notes will bear interest at a floating rate per annum equal to three-month term SOFR plus a spread of 227 basis points, payable quarterly in arrears on March 1, June 1, September 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on June 1, 2027. The 2032 Notes may be redeemed on or after March 1, 2027, which date may be extended at the Company's discretion, at a redemption price equal to principal plus accrued and unpaid interest, subject to certain conditions. Fees and costs incurred in connection with the debt offering amortize to interest expense over the term of the 2032 Notes. On March 6, 2024, the Company paid $4.2 million to repurchase $5.0 million par value of its 2032 Notes resulting in a pre-tax non-cash gain on extinguishment of $0.7 million, after accounting for unamortized issuance costs and accrued interest. On April 6, 2024, the Company paid $4.8 million to repurchase $5.0 million par value of its 2032 Notes resulting in a pre-tax non-cash gain on extinguishment of $0.2 million, after accounting for unamortized issuance costs and accrued interest. The non-cash gains are recorded in "General and administrative expense" in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024.
 In February 2024, we filed a new shelf registration with the SEC which allows us to issue up to $500.0 million through the sale of common stock, preferred stock, debt securities, warrants, subscription rights and units.
 We view our liquidity sources to be stable and adequate for our anticipated needs and contingencies for both the short and long-term. Due to the diversified sources of our deposits, while maintaining approximately 90% of our total Bank deposits in insured or collateralized accounts as of June 30, 2024, we believe we have the ability to increase our level of deposits, and have available other potential sources of funding, to address our liquidity needs for the foreseeable future.
 For additional information on certain contractual and other obligations, see Note 9—"Other Assets," Note 11—"Deposits," Note 12—"Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank," Note 13—"Borrowings, Subordinated Debt and Debentures" and Note 18—"Commitments, Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Activities" in the Consolidated Financial Statements. See Item 3. "Legal Proceedings" for further information on pending litigation.
 Consolidated and Bank Capital Requirements. Our Company and Bank are subject to regulatory capital adequacy requirements promulgated by federal bank regulatory agencies. Failure by our Company or Bank to meet minimum capital requirements could result in certain mandatory and discretionary actions by regulators that could have a material adverse effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements. The Federal Reserve establishes capital requirements for our Company and the OCC has similar requirements for our Bank. The following tables present regulatory capital information for our Company and Bank. Information presented for June 30, 2024, reflects the Basel III capital requirements for both our Company and Bank. Under these capital requirements and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, our Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our Company and Bank's assets, liabilities and certain off-

 balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. Our Company's and Bank's capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
 Quantitative measures established by regulation require our Company and Bank to maintain certain minimum capital amounts and ratios. Federal bank regulators require our Company and Bank maintain minimum ratios of core capital to adjusted average assets of 4.0%, common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5%, tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 6.0% and total risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0%. To be "well capitalized," our Company and Bank must maintain minimum leverage, common equity tier 1 risk-based, tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios of at least 5.0%, 6.5%, 8.0% and 10.0%, respectively. At June 30, 2024, our Company and Bank met all the capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject to and were "well capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. Management believes that no conditions or events have occurred since June 30, 2024 that would materially adversely change the Company's and Bank's capital classifications. From time to time, we may need to raise additional capital to support our Company's and Bank's further growth and to maintain their "well capitalized" status.
 The Company and Bank both elected the five-year CECL transition guidance for calculating regulatory capital and ratios. The amounts in the following table reflect this election. This guidance allowed an entity to add back to regulatory capital 100% of the impact of the day one CECL transition adjustment and 25% of the subsequent increases to the allowance for credit losses through June 30, 2022. In fiscal year 2024, this cumulative amount is phased out of regulatory capital at 50% and the cumulative amount will be 100% phased out of regulatory capital beginning in fiscal year 2026.

 Axos Clearing Capital Requirements. Pursuant to the net capital requirements of the Exchange Act, Axos Clearing, is subject to the SEC Uniform Net Capital (Rule 15c3-1 of the Exchange Act). Under this rule, the Company has elected to operate under the alternate method and is required to maintain minimum net capital of $250,000 or 2% of aggregate debit balances arising from client transactions, as defined. Under the alternate method, the Company may not repay subordinated debt, pay cash distributions, or make any unsecured advances or loans to its parent or employees if such payment would result in net capital of less than 5% of aggregate debit balances or less than 120% of its minimum dollar requirement.

 Axos Clearing, as a clearing broker, is subject to SEC Customer Protection Rule (Rule 15c3-3 of the Exchange Act) which requires segregation of funds in a special reserve account for the exclusive benefit of customers ("Customer Reserve Bank Account") and proprietary accounts of brokers ("PAB Reserve Account"). As of June 30, 2024, Axos Clearing was in compliance with its Customer Reserve Bank Account and PAB Reserve Account deposit requirements.

 ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
 Market risk is defined as the sensitivity of income and capital to changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and other relevant market rates or prices. The primary market risk to which we are exposed is interest rate risk. Changes in interest rates can have a variety of effects on our business. In particular, changes in interest rates affect our net interest income, net interest margin, net income, the value of our securities portfolio, the volume of loans originated, and the amount of gain or loss on the sale of our loans.
 We are exposed to different types of interest rate risk. These risks include lag, repricing, basis, prepayment and lifetime cap risk, each of which is described in further detail below:
 Lag Risk and Repricing Risk. Lag risk results from the inherent timing difference between the repricing of our adjustable rate assets and our liabilities. Repricing risk is caused by the mismatch of repricing methods between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Lag risk and repricing risk can produce short-term volatility in our net interest income during periods of interest rate movements even though the effect of this lag generally balances out over time. One example of lag risk is the repricing of assets indexed to the monthly treasury average ("MTA"). The MTA index is based on a moving average of rates outstanding during the previous 12 months. A sharp movement in interest rates in a month will not be fully reflected in the index for 12 months resulting in a lag in the repricing of our loans and securities based on this index. We expect more of our interest-earning assets will mature or reprice within one year than will our interest-bearing liabilities, resulting in a one year positive interest rate sensitivity gap (the difference between our interest rate sensitive assets maturing or repricing within one year and our interest rate sensitive liabilities maturing or repricing within one year, expressed as a percentage of total interest-earning assets). In a rising interest rate environment, an institution with a positive gap would generally be expected, absent the effects of other factors, to experience a greater increase in its yield on assets relative to its cost on liabilities, and thus an increase in its net interest income. If our interest-bearing liabilities lag in repricing is shorter, or reprices faster, than our interest-earning assets lag, then it would result in a reduction to our net interest income.
 Basis Risk. Basis risk occurs when assets and liabilities have similar repricing timing but repricing is based on different market interest rate indices. Our earning assets that reprice are directly tied to various indices, such as: U.S. Treasury, SOFR, Ameribor, Bloomberg Short Term Bank Yield Index ("BSBY"), Federal Funds ("Fed Funds"), Interest Rate on Excess Reserves ("IOER") and Prime. Generally, our deposit rates are not directly tied to these same indices. A portion of the Bank's deposits are based on administrative rates controlled by management and the remaining portion are directly tied to Fed Funds. Therefore, if liability-linked indices rise faster than asset-linked indices and there are no other changes in our asset/liability mix, our net interest income will likely decline due to basis risk.
 Prepayment Risk. Prepayment risk results from the right of customers to pay their loans prior to maturity. Generally, loan prepayments increase in falling interest rate environments and decrease in rising interest rate environments. In addition, prepayment risk results from the right of customers to withdraw their time deposits before maturity. Generally, early withdrawals of time deposits increase during rising interest rate environments and decrease in falling interest rate environments. When estimating the future performance of our assets and liabilities, we make assumptions as to when and how much of our loans and deposits will be prepaid. If the assumptions prove to be incorrect, the asset or liability may perform differently than expected.
 Lifetime Cap Risk. Our adjustable rate loans have lifetime interest rate caps. In periods of rising interest rates, it is possible for the fully indexed interest rate (index rate plus the margin) to exceed the lifetime interest rate cap. This feature prevents the loan from repricing to a level that exceeds the cap's specified interest rate, thus adversely affecting net interest income in periods of relatively high interest rates. On a weighted-average basis, our adjustable rate loans at June 30, 2024 had lifetime rate caps that were 526 basis points greater than their current stated note rates. If market rates rise by more than the interest rate cap, we will not be able to increase these loan rates above the interest rate cap.
 The principal objective of our asset/liability management is to manage the sensitivity of market value of equity ("MVE") to changing interest rates. Asset/liability management is governed by policies reviewed and approved annually by our Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors has delegated the responsibility to oversee the administration of these policies to the Bank's asset/liability committee ("ALCO"). The interest rate risk strategy currently deployed by ALCO is to primarily use "natural" balance sheet hedging. ALCO makes adjustments to the overall MVE sensitivity by recommending investment and borrowing strategies. The management team then executes the recommended strategy by increasing or decreasing the duration of the investments and borrowings, resulting in the appropriate level of market risk the Board of Directors wants to maintain. Other examples of ALCO policies designed to reduce our interest rate risk include limiting the premiums paid to purchase mortgage loans or mortgage-backed securities. This policy addresses mortgage prepayment risk by capping the yield loss from an unexpected high level of mortgage loan prepayments. At least once a quarter, ALCO members report to our Board of Directors the status of our interest rate risk profile.

 We measure interest rate sensitivity as the difference between amounts of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities that mature within a given period of time. The difference, or the interest rate sensitivity gap, provides an indication of the extent to which an institution's interest rate spread will be affected by changes in interest rates. A gap is considered positive when the amount of interest rate sensitive assets exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities and negative when the amount of interest rate sensitive liabilities exceeds the amount of interest rate sensitive assets.
 Absent any subsequent asset and liability actions by management, in a rising interest rate environment, an institution with a positive gap would be in a better position than an institution with a negative gap to invest in higher yielding assets or to have its asset yields adjusted upward, which would cause the yield on its assets to increase at a faster pace than the cost of its interest-bearing liabilities. Similarly, absent any subsequent asset and liability actions by management, during a period of falling interest rates, however, an institution with a positive gap would tend to have its assets reprice at a faster rate than one with a negative gap, which would tend to reduce the growth in its net interest income.

 1 Comprised of U.S. government securities, mortgage-backed securities and other securities. The table reflects contractual repricing dates.
 2 Loans includes loan premiums, discounts and unearned fees. The table reflects either contractual repricing dates or expected maturities.
 3 The table assumes that the principal balances for demand deposit and savings accounts will reprice in the first year.
 The above table provides an approximation of the projected re-pricing of assets and liabilities at June 30, 2024 on the basis of contractual maturities, adjusted for anticipated prepayments of principal and scheduled rate adjustments. The loan and securities prepayment rates reflected are based on historical experience. For the non-maturity deposit liabilities, we use decay rates and rate adjustments based upon our historical experience. Actual repayments of these instruments could vary substantially if future experience differs from our historic experience.
 Although "gap" analysis is a useful measurement device available to management in determining the existence of interest rate exposure, its static focus as of a particular date makes it necessary to utilize other techniques in measuring exposure to changes in interest rates. For example, gap analysis is limited in its ability to predict trends in future earnings and makes no

 assumptions about changes in prepayment tendencies, deposit or loan maturity preferences or repricing time lags that may occur in response to a change in the interest rate environment.
 The following table indicates the sensitivity of net interest income movements to parallel instantaneous shocks in interest rates for the 1-12 months' and 13-24 months' time periods. For purposes of modeling net interest income sensitivity the Bank assumes no growth in the balance sheet other than for retained earnings:

 The computation of the prospective effects of hypothetical interest rate changes is based on numerous assumptions, including relative levels of interest rates, asset prepayments, runoffs in deposits and changes in repricing levels of deposits to general market rates, and should not be relied upon as indicative of actual results. Furthermore, these computations do not take into account any actions that we may undertake in response to future changes in interest rates. Those actions include, but are not limited to, making changes in loan and deposit interest rates and changes in our asset and liability mix.
 Our Securities Business Segment is exposed to market risk primarily due to its role as a financial intermediary in customer transactions, which may include purchases and sales of securities, securities lending activities, and in our trading activities, which are used to support sales, underwriting and other customer activities. We are subject to the risk of loss that may result from the potential change in value of a financial instrument as a result of fluctuations in interest rates, market prices, investor expectations and changes in credit ratings of the issuer.
 Our Securities Business Segment is exposed to interest rate risk as a result of maintaining inventories of interest rate sensitive financial instruments and other interest-earning assets including customer and correspondent margin loans and securities borrowing activities. Our exposure to interest rate risk is also from our funding sources including customer and correspondent cash balances, bank borrowings and securities lending activities. Interest rates on customer and correspondent balances and securities produce a positive spread with rates generally fluctuating in parallel.
 With respect to securities held, our interest rate risk is managed by setting and monitoring limits on the size and duration of positions and on the length of time securities can be held. The majority of the interest rates on customer and correspondent margin loans are indexed and can vary daily. Our funding sources are generally short term with interest rates that can vary daily.
 At June 30, 2024, Axos Clearing held municipal obligations classified as trading securities and had maturities greater than 10 years.

 Our Securities Business Segment is engaged in various brokerage and trading activities that expose us to credit risk arising from potential non-performance from counterparties, customers or issuers of securities. This risk is managed by setting and monitoring position limits for each counterparty, conducting periodic credit reviews of counterparties, reviewing concentrations of securities and conducting business through central clearing organizations.
 Collateral underlying margin loans to customers and correspondents and underlying securities lending activities is marked to market daily and additional collateral is obtained or refunded, as necessary.

 Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures. Our management, under supervision and with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined under Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e). Based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2024, the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company's Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities Exchange Commission's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
 Management's Report On Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(1) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of; our principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
 • Pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
 • Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorizations of our management and directors; and
 • Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
 Management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") in Internal Control—Integrated Framework (2013 version). Based on this assessment, management has determined that our internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024 was effective.
 BDO USA, P.C. has audited the effectiveness of the company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024, as stated in their report dated August 22, 2024.
 Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2024 (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting.

 Las Vegas, Nevada
 Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 We have audited Axos Financial, Inc.'s (the "Company's") internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the "COSO criteria"). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024, based on the COSO criteria.
 We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB"), the consolidated balance sheets of the Company as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes and our report dated August 22, 2024 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
 Basis for Opinion
 The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Item 9A, Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
 We conducted our audit of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
 A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
 Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

 Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
 Stockholders and Board of Directors
 Axos Financial, Inc.
 Las Vegas, Nevada
 Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
 We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Axos Financial, Inc. (the "Company") as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, stockholders' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "consolidated financial statements"). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at June 30, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended June 30, 2024, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB"), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission ("COSO") and our report dated August 22, 2024, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
 Basis for Opinion
 These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
 We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.
 Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 Critical Audit Matters
 The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the consolidated financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
 Allowance for credit losses
 As discussed in Notes 1 and 5 to the consolidated financial statement, the Company records their allowance for credit losses ("ACL") under Accounting Standards Codification Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses ("ASC 326"). The Company's ACL methodology considers many factors including, but not limited to, historical loss experience, where available, estimated defaults based on portfolio trends, changes in collateral values, portfolio composition and loan concentration, current lending policies and the effects of any new policies. Management's expectation of future economic conditions is reflected in management's selection and weighting of economic forecast scenarios.
 We identified a critical audit matter related to the weighting of economic forecast scenarios within the Commercial Real Estate (including construction lending) and Commercial & Industrial loan portfolio segments as this assessment utilizes economic forecasts, which are subject to uncertainty, and are based on the Company's current and expected outlook. Given the significance of the ACL, the sensitivity to the change of the weightings, and the management judgment required, performing audit procedures to evaluate the reasonableness of the weighting of economic forecast scenarios required a high degree of auditor judgment due to the nature of audit evidence and nature and extent of audit effort required to address these matters, including the extent of specialized skill and knowledge needed.

 The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
 • Testing the design and operating effectiveness of controls over the ACL, including management's controls over the weighting of economic forecast scenarios;
 • Evaluating the reasonableness of the weighting of economic forecast scenarios by assessing the magnitude and directional consistency of changes, or lack thereof, in the level of adjustments as compared to underlying external information sources;
 • Considering disconfirming evidence by performing a market analysis to evaluate the appropriateness of conclusions reached; and
 • Utilizing professionals with specialized skill and knowledge in valuation and business analytics to assist in evaluating the reasonableness and conceptual soundness of the ACL modeling framework applied in the ACL models by comparing to accounting and industry standards.
 PCD - Allowance for credit losses
 As discussed in Notes 1, 2 and 5 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company purchased two loan portfolios, comprising of purchased credit deteriorated ("PCD") and non-PCD loans from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Of the loans purchased, $170.5 million were determined to be PCD, with an allowance for credit losses at acquisition of $70.1 million. For PCD loans, the initial estimate of expected credit losses is recognized in the allowance for credit losses on the date of acquisition. The initial amortized cost of PCD loans is determined by reducing the loans' par value by the acquisition date estimate of expected credit losses with any difference between the resulting amount and the loans' purchase price recorded as a non-credit-related discount. The Company calculates the allowance related to the PCD loans through a model that estimates the probability of default and loss given default.
 We identified a critical audit matter related to the initial model set up of the allowance for PCD loans, specifically the evaluation of the reasonableness of the source of the assumptions used to calculate the probability of default and liquidation costs as of acquisition date. Management is required to make significant judgments to determine the third party or internal data source that is most appropriate to utilize within their model, given the Company does not have a history of acquiring PCD loans. Given the judgmental and subjective nature of the assumptions, auditing the allowance related to PCD loans involved a high degree of auditor judgment due to the nature of audit evidence and extent of auditor effort.
 The primary procedures we performed to address this critical audit matter included:
 • Testing the design and operating effectiveness of controls over the allowance for PCD loans, including management's controls over the determination of the source of the assumptions used to calculate the probability of default and liquidation costs as of the acquisition date;
 • Evaluating management's process used to develop the assumptions by agreeing them back to source data;
 • Utilizing professionals with specialized skills and knowledge in valuation and business analytics to assist in evaluating the reasonableness and conceptual soundness of the methodology utilized to calculate the probability of default and liquidation costs using the selected assumptions by evaluating the relevance of the sources utilized and the consistency of the model with the existing ACL modeling framework; and
 • Evaluating the reasonableness and conceptual soundness of the assumptions by assessing the availability of disconfirming evidence as compared to underlying internal and external information sources.

 NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 FISCAL YEARS ENDED JUNE 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022
 1. ORGANIZATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 Basis of Presentation and Consolidation. The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Axos Financial, Inc. ("Axos") and its wholly owned subsidiaries. Axos Bank (the "Bank" or "Axos Bank"), its wholly owned subsidiaries, and the activities of two lending-related trust entities, constitute the Banking Business Segment and Axos Nevada Holding and its wholly owned subsidiaries constitute the Securities Business Segment. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. The Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements are an integral part of the Company's financial statements. Certain reclassifications have been made to the Consolidated Statements of Income and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the Company's results of operations or financial position. On the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, purchases and distributions of certain equity investments are now presented as cash flows from investing activities.
 Axos Financial, Inc. was incorporated in the State of Delaware on July 6, 1999 for the purpose of organizing and launching an internet-based savings bank. The Bank, which opened for business over the internet on July 4, 2000, is subject to regulation and examination by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency ("OCC"), its primary regulator. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insures the Bank's deposit accounts up to the maximum allowable amount. Axos Clearing LLC, a clearing broker dealer, is regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). Axos Invest, a platform through which digital investment advisory services are offered to retail investors, is regulated by the SEC and FINRA.
 Business. The Company provides banking and securities products and services to its customers through its online and low-cost distribution channels and affinity partners. Deposit products are demand accounts, savings and money market accounts, and time deposits marketed to consumers and businesses. Lending products include residential single family mortgage, multifamily mortgage, commercial mortgage loans, loans secured by commercial real estate properties ("CRE"), loans secured by commercial assets and non-bank lenders (Commercial & Industrial - Non-Real Estate), auto and unsecured loans and other loans. The Bank's lending business is primarily concentrated in California and New York and is subject to the general economic conditions of those states. Securities products and services generate interest and fee income by providing comprehensive securities clearing and custody services to introducing broker-dealers and registered investment advisor correspondents and digital investment advisory services to retail investors, respectively.
 Use of Estimates. In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the balance sheet and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may differ materially from those estimates.
 Revenue Recognition. The Company accounts for certain revenue streams under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers ("ASC 606"), which provides that an entity shall recognize revenue to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods and services. Certain non-interest income, such as deposit service fees, advisory fee income and broker-dealer clearing fees, are within the scope of ASC 606.
 Advisory Fee Income—Asset-Based Custody Fees and Asset-Based Fund Fees. Asset-based custody fees consist of custody fees, and other ancillary fees. Custody fees vary based on a percentage of average customer assets under custody. Other ancillary fees may be charged based on average customer assets or based on specific activity. Revenue is recognized over the period where assets are held as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits. Asset-based fund fees consist of 12b-1 and mutual fund shareholder services fees and are paid by mutual fund companies monthly or quarterly based on the underlying agreements. Asset-based fund fees are charged based on a percentage of client assets invested in certain funds. Revenue is calculated each month based on the average daily assets invested in particular funds. Revenue is recognized over the period where assets are invested in certain funds. The performance obligations relate to providing recordkeeping, stockholder and administration services to mutual fund companies and the obligations are satisfied upon the performance of such services. Revenue recognition is constrained until the amount of average assets invested in each fund is known.
 Broker-Dealer Clearing Fees. The Company earns revenues for executing, settling and clearing securities transactions for other broker-dealers on a fully disclosed basis. Trade execution and clearing services, when provided together, represent a single performance obligation as the services are not separately identifiable in the context of the contract. Revenues associated

 with combined trade execution and clearing services, as well as trade execution services on a standalone basis, are recognized at a point in time on trade-date. The Company believes that the performance obligation is satisfied on the trade date because that is when the underlying security or purchaser is identified, the pricing is agreed upon and the risks and rewards of ownership have been transferred to/from the customer. The Company also earns revenues for services which are separately identifiable and represent a distinct performance obligation which is recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits. Certain clearing or other related fees represent a modification of the original contract as they are distinct services. All trade and execution services are priced at their standalone selling price. Clearing and other fees are generally deducted from the introducing brokers' commissions on a monthly basis.
 Banking and Service Fees—Deposit Service Fees. Service charges on deposit accounts consist of account analysis fees (i.e., net fees earned on analyzed business and public checking accounts), monthly service fees, check orders, and other deposit account related fees. The Company's performance obligation for account analysis fees and monthly service fees is generally satisfied, and the related revenue recognized, over the period in which the service is provided. Check orders and other deposit account related fees are largely transactional based, and therefore, the Company's performance obligation is satisfied and related revenue recognized, when incurred. Payment for service charges on deposit accounts is primarily received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to customers' accounts.
 Banking and Service Fees—Card Fees. Fees, exchange, and other service charges are primarily comprised of debit card income, ATM fees, merchant services income, and other service charges. Debit card income is primarily comprised of interchange fees earned whenever the Company's debit cards are processed through card payment networks such as Visa. ATM fees are primarily generated when a Company cardholder uses a non-Company ATM or a non-Company cardholder uses a Company ATM. Merchant services income mainly represents fees charged to merchants to process their debit and credit card transactions, in addition to account management fees. Other service charges include revenue from processing wire transfers, bill pay service, cashier's checks, and other services. The Company's performance obligation for fees, exchange, and other service charges are largely satisfied, and related revenue recognized, when the services are rendered or upon completion. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month.
 Banking and Service Fees—Technology and Service Fees. Technology and service fees include bankruptcy trustee, fiduciary service income and technology fees. Technology fees primarily include those earned from business management and entertainment accounting and payroll software licenses as well as payroll processing fees. The performance obligation is satisfied as access to the licensed software is provided and upon the processing of payroll. Payment for software licenses and payroll processing is generally received in the month following the provision of service. Bankruptcy trustee and fiduciary service income is primarily comprised of fees earned from the monthly basis point fee and bank account service charges. The products and services provided to the trustee also provide a source of deposits to the Company. The performance obligation is satisfied when the deposits are determined at the end of each month. The expected value method is used to calculate and record the estimated revenue at the beginning of each month based on the amount of deposits. Fees are billed and collected on a monthly basis

 Contract Balances. A contract asset or receivable is recognized if the Company performs a service or transfers a good in advance of receiving consideration. A contract liability is recognized if the Company receives consideration (or has the unconditional right to receive consideration) in advance of performance. As of June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, the Company's contract assets and liabilities were not considered material.

 Other. Increases in the net cash surrender value of bank-owned life insurance policies, as well as insurance proceeds received, are recorded in non-interest income and are not subject to income taxes. Lending related income includes fees earned from gains or losses on the sale of loans, and letter of credit fees. Gain or loss on the sale of financial assets is measured as the net assets received from the sale less the carrying amount of the loan sold. The net assets received from the sale represent the fair value of any assets obtained or liabilities incurred as part of the transaction, including but not limited to cash, servicing assets, retained securitization investments and recourse obligations. Net gain or loss on the sale of repossessed assets is calculated by comparing sales proceeds to the carrying amount of the asset, and the carrying amount of the asset is determined using the lower of cost or fair value approach.
 Cash and Cash Equivalents. The Bank's cash, due from banks, money market mutual funds and federal funds sold, all of which have original maturities within 90 days, consist of cash and cash equivalents. The table below presents cash and cash equivalents based on non-interest-earning and interest-earning status.

 Restricted Cash. Restricted cash includes qualified deposits in special reserve bank accounts for the exclusive benefit of Axos Clearing customers in accordance with Rule 15c3-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and other regulations. Restricted cash also includes certain other cash balances which are restricted as to the Company's withdrawal or usage based upon the terms of the corresponding agreements.
 Securities. The Company classifies securities at the time of purchase depending on intent. Debt securities are classified as held to maturity when management intends to hold the securities until maturity, or as available for sale if the securities are not held for resale in the near term. Available-for-sale securities are reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of the related tax effects, reported as a separate component of "Other comprehensive income (loss)" on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Trading securities include assets held for resale in the near term, with changes in the fair value recognized in earnings.
 Gains and losses on securities sales are based on a comparison of sales proceeds and the amortized cost of the security sold using the specific identification method. Purchases and sales are recognized on the trade date. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of purchase premiums or discounts. Premiums and discounts on securities are amortized or accreted using the level-yield method without anticipating prepayments, except for mortgage-backed securities where prepayments are anticipated.
 For available-for-sale debt securities in an unrealized loss position, the Company first assesses whether it intends to sell, or it is more likely than not that it will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met, the security's amortized cost basis is written down to fair value through income. For available-for-sale debt securities that do not meet the aforementioned criteria, the Company evaluates at the individual security level whether the decline in fair value has resulted from credit losses or other factors. In making this assessment, management considers the extent to which fair value is less than amortized cost and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, among other factors. If this assessment indicates that a credit loss exists, the present value of cash flows expected to be collected from the security are compared to the amortized cost basis of the security. If the present value of cash flows expected to be collected is less than the amortized cost basis, a credit loss exists and an allowance for credit losses is recorded which is limited by the difference between fair value and the amortized cost basis. The remaining change in fair value is recognized in "Other comprehensive income" on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. Changes in the allowance for credit losses, if any, are recorded as a provision for (or reversal of) credit losses. Losses are charged against the allowance when management believes the available-for-sale security is confirmed as uncollectible or when either of the criteria regarding intent or requirement to sell is met.
 Loans (including Direct Financing & Sales Type Leases). Loans that are held for investment are loans that management has the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future or until maturity are reported at the principal balance outstanding, net of unearned interest, deferred purchase premiums and discounts, deferred loan origination fees and costs, and an allowance for credit loss - loans. Interest income is accrued on the unpaid principal balance. Premiums and discounts on loans purchased as well as loan origination fees, net of certain direct origination costs, are deferred and recognized in interest income using the level-yield method.

 Single Family - Mortgage & Warehouse. The Single Family - Mortgage & Warehouse portfolio segment primarily consists of two loan types: single family mortgage loans and single family warehouse lines of credit. The single family mortgage loans consist of loans secured by one-to-four family residences. The single family warehouse lines of credit enable the mortgage originators to close loans in their own names and temporarily finance inventories of closed mortgage loans until they can be sold to an approved investor. The Company also originates home equity lines of credit and second mortgage loans.
 Multifamily and Commercial Mortgage. The Multifamily and Commercial Mortgage portfolio segment consists of loans secured by multifamily real estate (more than four units) and commercial real estate. These loans are dependent on the cash flow capacity of the project and repayment of loans secured by properties frequently depends on their successful operation and management.
 Commercial Real Estate. The Commercial Real Estate portfolio segment consists of loans secured by commercial real estate properties ("CRE") under a variety of structures that it classifies as commercial real estate. A few examples are as follows: Commercial Bridge to Sale, Commercial Bridge to Construction, Commercial Bridge to Refinance and Acquisition, Development, Construction and Lender Finance. CRE Loans are originated to businesses secured by first liens on single family, multifamily, condominium, office, retail, mixed-use, hospitality, undeveloped or to-be-redeveloped land. Repayment of CRE loans depends on the successful completion of the real estate transition project and permanent take-out.
 Commercial & Industrial - Non-Real Estate (Non-RE). The Commercial & Industrial - Non-Real Estate portfolio segment consists of lender finance loans, asset-based loans, leveraged cash flow loans, insurance premium finance, fund finance, equipment leases, and general commercial and industrial loans. These receivables are generally secured by commercial assets, including, but not limited to, receivables, inventory, equipment and uniform commercial code ("UCC") all-asset filings.
 For commercial and industrial non-real estate, asset backed loans and line of credit term loans, the Company typically enters into a structured facility, under which it takes a senior lien position collateralized by the underlying assets at advance rates well below the collateral value. Leveraged cash flow loans provide financial sponsors the ability to finance acquisitions, management buy-outs, recapitalizations, debt refinancing and dividends/distributions. Such lending relies on free cash flow as the primary repayment source, and enterprise value as the secondary repayment source.
 The Company's equipment financing lease arrangements do not qualify as a sale as the Company does not obtain control of the assets in the ongoing sale leaseback arrangements. Therefore, the leased equipment is not capitalized on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Direct financing leases and sales-type leases are carried at the aggregate of lease payments receivable plus the estimated residual value of the leased property less unearned income, which is accreted to interest income over the lease terms using methods that approximate the interest method. Operating lease income is recognized on a straight-line basis and is included within the Loans, including fees, line item in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Leases generally do not contain non-lease components. Commercial and industrial leases are primarily made based on the operating cash flows of the borrower or conversion of working capital assets to cash and secondarily on the underlying collateral provided by the borrower.
 Auto and Consumer. The Auto and Consumer portfolio segment includes automobile loans and unsecured consumer loans, including account overdraft loans:
 Auto loans consist of prime and subprime loans to customers secured by new and used vehicles. The Company holds all of the auto loans originated and performs loan servicing functions for these loans. Auto loans carry a fixed interest rate and have terms that range from two to eight years. Certain auto loans are insured for credit losses through which the Company recognizes fee income in "Banking and service fees" in the Consolidated Statements of Income upon the receipt of insurance proceeds following the charge off of the loans. Any receivables related to these policies are included in "Other assets" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
 Consumer unsecured loans generally consist of fixed rate unsecured loans to well-qualified, individual borrowers. Loan terms that range between three to six years.
 Purchased Credit Deteriorated ("PCD") Loans. Purchased loans that reflect a more-than-insignificant deterioration of credit since their origination are considered PCD. For PCD loans, the initial estimate of expected credit losses is recognized in the allowance for credit losses on the date of acquisition. The initial amortized cost of PCD loans is determined by reducing the loans' par value by the acquisition date estimate of expected credit losses with any difference between the resulting amount and the loans' purchase price recorded as a non-credit-related discount. Subsequent changes in the initial estimate of expected credit losses are recognized in the provision for credit losses in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Income.
 Loans Held for Sale. Agency loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market are carried at fair value. Net unrealized gains and losses are recognized through mortgage banking income in the income statement. The Bank sells its

 mortgage loans with either servicing released or servicing retained depending upon market pricing. Gains and losses on loan sales are recorded as mortgage banking income, based on the difference between sales proceeds and carrying value. Non-agency loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or fair value. The Company has elected the fair value option for Agency loans held for sale. These loans are intended for sale and the Company believes that the fair value is the best indicator of the resolution of these loans. For loans for which the fair value option has been elected, the Company amortizes premiums and discounts over the life of the loan and any origination fees or costs are recognized as incurred.
 Loans that were originated with the intent and ability to hold for the foreseeable future (loans held for investment), but which have been subsequently designated as being held for sale for risk management or liquidity needs are carried at the lower of cost or fair value calculated using pools of loans with similar characteristics. Upon transfer, the Company assesses the collectability of the outstanding principal balance and may charge-off a portion of the loan as discussed further below in "Allowance for Credit Losses." Following this assessment, any previously established ACL on the held for investment loan is reversed and the loan is transferred at amortized cost. If, following transfer to held for sale, the fair value of the loan is below its amortized cost a valuation allowance is established for the difference.
 There may be times when loans have been classified as held for sale and cannot be sold or the Company has the intent and ability to hold the loan for the foreseeable future or to maturity and the loans are transferred to held for investment. For loans transferred from the lower of cost or fair value held for sale classification, any valuation allowance is reversed upon transfer and the loan is transferred at amortized cost and is then assessed for any potential ACL.
 Allowance for Credit Losses. The ACL is a valuation account that offsets the amortized cost basis of loans and net investment in leases. Under ASC 326, amortized cost is the basis on which the ACL is determined. Amortized cost is principal outstanding, net of any purchase premiums and discounts and net of any deferred loan fees and costs.
 Loans are charged off against the ACL when the Company believes that collectability of at least some portion of outstanding principal is unlikely. Recoveries on loans previously charged off are recorded as an increase to the allowance for credit losses. The allowance for credit losses is maintained at a level needed to absorb expected credit losses over the contractual life, considering the effects of prepayments, of the loan portfolio as of the reporting date. Determining the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses is complex and requires judgment by Management about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. As such, a future assessment of current conditions may require material adjustments to the allowance.
 The Company's process for determining expected lifetime credit losses entails a portfolio, model-based approach utilizing loan level detail and requires consideration of a broad range of relevant information relating to historical loss experience, current economic conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts.
 The Company stratifies the full loan population into segments sharing similar characteristics to perform the evaluation of the credit loss collectively. The Company defines a loan portfolio segment as the level at which the Company develops a systematic methodology to determine the allowance, which is generally based on similar risk attributes, including underlying collateral, as well as the Company's methods for monitoring credit risk and other factors. The Company categorizes the loan portfolio into five segments: Single Family - Mortgage & Warehouse, Multifamily and Commercial Mortgage, Commercial Real Estate, including construction lending, Commercial & Industrial - Non-Real Estate and Auto & Consumer. For further information on these loan portfolio segments, see "Loans" herein.
 The method for estimating expected lifetime credit losses includes, among other things, the following main components: (1) The use of a probability of default ("PD")/loss given default ("LGD") model; (2) defining a number of economic scenarios across the benign to adverse spectrum; (3) a reasonable forecast period of 24 months for all loan segments; and (4) a reversion period of 12 months using a linear transition to historical loss rates for each loan pool. After the reversion period, the historical loss rate is applied over the remaining contractual life of loan. Reasonable forecast periods and reversion periods are subject to periodic review and may be adjusted based on the Company's view of current economic conditions. The results of the estimate are calculated for several scenarios across the benign to adverse spectrum for each of the Company's loan portfolio segments. The weighting of scenarios is subject to periodic review and may be adjusted based on the Company's view of current economic conditions.
 Given the inherent limitations of a solely quantitative model, qualitative adjustments are included to arrive at the ending calculated loss amount in order to account for data points not captured from quantitative inputs alone.
 Qualitative criteria we consider includes, among other things, the following:
 • Regulatory and Legal - matters that may impact the timeliness and/or amounts of repayments;
 • Concentration - portfolio composition and loan concentration;
 • Collateral Dependency - changes in collateral values;

 • Lending/Underwriting Standards - current lending policies and the effects of any new policies;
 • Nature and Volume - loan production volume and mix;
 • Macroeconomic Environment - considerations not reflected in the data utilized in the model; and
 • Loan Trends - credit performance trends, including a borrower's financial condition and credit rating.
 Specifically, Management reviews whether the model reflects the appropriate level of PD and LGD, given the macroeconomic forecasts used as compared to the Company's loan portfolio. Management determines the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses based on reviews of individual loans, recent loss experience, current economic conditions, expectations about future economic conditions, the risk characteristics of the various categories of loans, including loan-to-value ratios, and other pertinent factors. If, based on Management's evaluation, macroeconomic factors do not capture Management's assumption regarding collateral values (LGD) and defaults (PD), Management will apply additional qualitative overlays to the loan portfolio. This evaluation is inherently subjective and requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available.
 Accrued Interest. Accrued interest receivable is excluded from amortized cost and is presented separately in "Other Assets" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Additionally, the Company does not estimate an allowance for credit losses on accrued interest receivable as the Company has a policy to charge off accrued interest deemed uncollectible in a timely manner. When a loan is placed on nonaccrual status, which generally occurs when a borrower becomes delinquent by 90 days, interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current period interest income. Interest received on such loans is accounted for on the cash-basis or cost recovery method, until qualifying for return to accrual status. Loans are returned to accrual status when all the principal and interest amounts contractually due are brought current and future payments are reasonably assured.
 Individually Assessed Loans. Credit losses are estimated on a collective basis, unless an individual loan's credit characteristics have deteriorated below a range of the overall group, in which case the loan would be individually assessed. Individually assessed loans are measured for credit loss based on the present value of future expected cash flows, discounted at the loan's effective interest rate or based on the fair value of the collateral, less estimated selling costs, if the loan is collateral-dependent.
 Loan Commitments. Loans commitments not unconditionally cancellable are subject to an estimate of credit loss under a current expected credit loss model. The Company's process for determining the estimate of credit loss on loan commitments is the same as it is on loans. Refer to detail of Allowance on Credit Losses above. Allowance on Credit Losses of off-balance sheet commitments is presented separately in "Accounts payable and other liabilities" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
 Leases - Lessee Arrangements. The Company leases office space under operating lease agreements scheduled to expire at various dates. At lease commencement, lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the remaining lease payments and discounted using the Company's incremental borrowing rate, which is a blended rate comprised of the FHLB term rate and the Company's subordinated debt rate. Right-of-use assets initially equal the lease liability, adjusted for any lease payments made prior to lease commencement and for any lease incentives. Right-of-use assets are reported in "Other assets" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and the related lease liabilities are reported in "Accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other liabilities." All leases are recorded on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term and is recorded in "Occupancy and equipment" expense in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
 Servicing Rights. Servicing rights assets are recognized when such rights are retained upon sale of loans and are reported at fair value on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The changes in fair value are reported in earnings in the period in which the changes occur and the adjustments are included in "Mortgage banking and servicing rights income," a component of non-interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
 Derivatives. Commitments to fund mortgage loans (interest rate locks) to be sold into the secondary market and forward commitments for the future delivery of these mortgage loans are accounted for as free standing derivatives. The Company enters into forward commitments for the future delivery of mortgage loans when interest rate locks are entered into, in order to economically hedge the change in interest rates resulting from its commitments to fund the loans. Changes in the fair values of these derivatives are included in "Mortgage banking income" on the Consolidated Statements of Income.
 The Company makes markets in interest rate swap and cap derivatives to facilitate customer demand. The Company enters into offsetting derivative transactions to offset its interest rate risk associated with this customer transaction activity. The Company acquired as part of the FDIC Loan Purchase certain customer-facing interest rate derivatives and related market-facing derivatives which offset the Company's interest rate risk. For additional information on these derivatives see Note 2 — "Acquisitions" and Note 6 — "Derivatives." Changes in the fair values of these derivatives, and related fees, are included in "Banking and service fees" on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

 Derivative assets and liabilities are not subject to any counterparty netting and are presented at fair value on a gross basis in "Other assets" and "Accounts payable and other liabilities", respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and cash flows related to derivative assets and liabilities are presented in "Net change in assets and liabilities which provide (use) cash - Other Assets" and "Net change in assets and liabilities which provide (use) cash - Accounts payable and other liabilities," respectively, in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. There are no derivatives in designated hedge accounting relationships.
 Furniture, Equipment and Software. Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization computed primarily using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which range from three to seven years and recorded within "Depreciation and amortization", a component of non-interest expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the assets' useful lives or the lease term. Furniture, equipment and software are included in "Other assets" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
 Income Taxes. Income tax expense is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the asset and liability method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the temporary differences between the book and tax bases of the various assets and liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws. The Company records a valuation allowance when management believes it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will not be realized. An income tax position will be recognized as a benefit only if it is more likely than not that it will be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service, based upon its technical merits. Once that status is met, the amount recorded will be the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.
 Securities Borrowed and Securities Loaned. Securities borrowed and securities loaned transactions are reported as collateralized financings and recorded at the amount of cash collateral advanced or received. Securities borrowed transactions require the Company to deposit cash with the lender. With respect to securities loaned, the Company receives collateral in the form of cash in an amount in excess of the fair value of securities loaned. The Company monitors the fair value of securities borrowed and loaned on a daily basis, with additional collateral obtained or refunded, as necessary.
 Customer, Broker-Dealer and Clearing Receivables and Payables. Customer, broker-dealer and clearing receivables represent amounts due on cash and margin transactions and are generally collateralized by securities owned by clients. These receivables primarily consist of floating-rate loans collateralized by customer-owned securities. The receivables are reported at their outstanding principal balance net of allowance for credit losses. When a receivable is considered to be impaired, an impairment charge is recorded based on the current estimate of expected credit losses for the receivable, which is measured based on current prices from independent sources, such as listed market prices or broker-dealer price quotations. Securities owned by customers, including those that collateralize margin or other similar transactions, are not reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Also included in these accounts are receivables and payables from brokers and dealers and clearing organizations as well as securities failed to deliver and receive.
 Business Combinations. Mergers and acquisitions are accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting. Assets and liabilities acquired and assumed are recorded at their fair values as of the date of the transaction. The excess of purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed is recorded as goodwill. Significant estimates and judgments are involved in the fair valuation and purchase price allocation process.
 Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Goodwill represents the excess of the cost of an acquisition over the fair value of the net assets acquired. Other intangible assets represent purchased assets that lack physical substance but can be distinguished from goodwill because of contractual or other legal rights. Intangible assets that have finite lives, such as core deposit intangibles, are amortized over their estimated useful lives and subject to periodic impairment testing. Intangible assets (other than goodwill) are amortized to "Depreciation and amortization" a component of non-interest expense on the Consolidated Statements of Income, using accelerated or straight-line methods over their respective estimated useful lives.
 Goodwill is subject to impairment testing at the reporting unit level, which is conducted at least annually. The Company performs impairment testing during the third quarter of each year or when events or changes in circumstances indicate the assets might be impaired.
 The Company performs a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after assessing updated qualitative factors, the Company determines it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, it performs a quantitative goodwill impairment test. Determining the fair value of a reporting unit is judgmental and often involves the use of significant estimates and assumptions. Similarly, estimates and assumptions are used in determining the fair value of other intangible assets.

 Estimates of fair value are primarily determined using discounted cash flows, market comparisons and recent transactions. These approaches use significant estimates and assumptions including projected future cash flows, discount rates reflecting the market rate of return, projected growth rates and determination and evaluation of appropriate market comparable.
 Earnings per Common Share. Earnings per common share ("EPS") are presented under two formats: basic EPS and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is computed by dividing the net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed using the treasury stock method by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period, including the additional dilutive potential common shares, such as restricted stock units ("RSUs").
 Stock-Based Compensation. Compensation cost is recognized for RSU awards issued to employees, based on the market price of the Company's common stock on the grant date. The Company has certain share awards that include market conditions that affect vesting. The fair value of these awards is estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation. For awards with only a service condition that have a graded vesting schedule, compensation cost is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for the entire award. For awards that contain a market condition and have a graded vesting schedule compensation cost is recognized using an accelerated attribution method over the requisite service period for the awards. The Company recognizes forfeitures as they occur.
 Stock of Regulatory Agencies. The Bank is a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") system. Members are required to own a certain amount of FHLB stock based on the level of borrowings and other factors. FHLB stock is carried at cost, classified as a restricted security, and periodically evaluated for impairment based on ultimate recovery of par value. Axos Securities, LLC is a member of the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ("DTCC"), a financial services company providing clearing and settlement services to the financial markets. Members are required to own a certain amount of DTCC stock based on the clearing levels and other factors. DTCC stock is valued based on information provided by the DTCC, classified as a restricted security, and periodically evaluated for impairment based on the ultimate recovery of carrying value.
 Low Income Housing Tax Credits ("LIHTC"). The Company invests as a limited partner in LIHTC partnerships that operate qualified affordable housing projects which generate tax benefits for investors through the realization of tax credits and deductions, which may be subject to recapture by taxing authorities if compliance requirements are not met. The Company amortizes the investment in proportion to the allocated tax benefits using the proportional amortization method of accounting and record such benefits net of investment amortization in income taxes in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The investment is included within "Other assets" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
 Cash Surrender Value of Life Insurance. The Bank has purchased life insurance policies on certain key executives. Bank owned life insurance is recorded at the amount that can be realized under the insurance contract at the balance sheet date, which is the cash surrender value adjusted for other amounts due that are probable at settlement. Cash surrender value of life insurance is included in "Other assets" in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Changes to the cash surrender value are recorded within "Banking and service fees" in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
 Comprehensive Income. Comprehensive income consists of net income and other comprehensive income. Other comprehensive income includes unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale securities, which are also recognized as separate components of equity.
 Loss Contingencies. The Company records an accrual for a loss contingency when the estimated loss is both probable and reasonably estimated.
 Variable Interest Entities ("VIEs"). The Company determines whether it is the primary beneficiary of a VIE upon its initial involvement with the entity and reassesses whether it remains the primary beneficiary on an ongoing basis. This determination includes an assessment of the design of the VIE, the power to make significant economic decisions and the variable interests held by the Company relative to other parties. The Company consolidated the results of operations and financial position of two securitization trusts, which it considers VIEs. The Company consolidated these VIEs because it is deemed to be the primary beneficiary since the Company has the power to direct the loan servicing activities, which is the activity that most significantly affect the VIEs' economic performance, and the Company has the obligation to absorb the majority of the losses or benefits through ownership of all of the debt securities issued by the trusts. For these VIEs, the loans transferred to the VIEs are pledged as collateral to the related debt securities. At June 30, 2024 and 2023, certain loans that can only be used to settle debt securities of these VIEs were $ 1,191.7 million and $ 21.6 million, respectively. For further information on the loans reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets resulting from the consolidation of the two lending-related trust entities, see Note 5— "Loans & Allowance for Credit Losses."
 The Company also invests in low-income housing tax credit investments, certain mortgage-backed securities and partnership interests which are determined to be VIEs. However, given that the Company does not have the power to direct the

 activities of the VIEs that most significantly impact their economic performance, the Company does not consolidate these VIEs. The carrying amount of these non-consolidated VIEs represents the Company's maximum exposure to loss. For additional information on the Company's LIHTC investments, see Note 9—"Other Assets" and for additional information on the Company's mortgage-backed securities, see Note 4— "Available-For-Sale Securities. "
 New Accounting Standards
 Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
 The Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued three Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs") (2020-04, 2021-04 and 2022-06) all of which provide guidance to alleviate the burden in accounting for reference rate reform by allowing certain expedients and exceptions in applying generally accepted accounting principles to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions impacted by reference rate reform. The provisions apply only to those transactions that reference London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued due to reference rate reform. The Company adopted these ASUs on July 1, 2023, and there was no impact on its financial condition or results of operations upon adoption.
 On July 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASU 2022-02 which eliminated the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors that have adopted the current expected credit losses ("CECL") model and enhanced the disclosure requirements for loan refinancings and restructurings made with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, the amendments require a public business entity to disclose current-period gross write-offs for financing receivables and net investment in leases by year of origination in the vintage disclosures. There was no impact on its financial condition or results of operations upon adoption. See Note 5—"Loans & Allowance for Credit Losses" for the new disclosures as a result of the adoption of this accounting guidance.
 Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted
 In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07 which requires disclosure of significant business segment expenses and a description of the composition of other segment expenses by business segment. The ASU also requires disclosure of the title and position of the chief operating decision maker and an explanation of how the chief operating decision maker uses the reported measures of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company does not expect any impact on its financial condition or results of operations upon adoption.
 In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 which requires further granularity on the disclosure of income taxes, including:
 • Certain prescribed line items in the income tax rate reconciliation presented both in dollar and percentage terms;
 • Income taxes paid, income before income taxes and income taxes disaggregated by federal, state and foreign taxes; and
 • Further disaggregation of income taxes paid by any individual jurisdiction equal to or exceeding five percent of total income taxes paid.
 This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company does not expect any impact on its financial condition or results of operations upon adoption.

 2. ACQUISITIONS
 On August 23, 2023, the Company acquired approximately $ 52 million of marine floor financing loans at par value along with other assets for an additional $ 2 million, primarily consisting of servicing rights as well as certain employees. The transaction was accounted for as an asset acquisition and such assets are included in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2024.
 On December 7, 2023, the Company acquired from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") two loan portfolios, comprising both PCD and non-PCD loans, with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $ 1.3 billion at a fair value of $ 901.5 million, reflecting a non-credit-related discount of $ 306.8 million and an allowance for credit losses on PCD loans of $ 70.1 million, (the "FDIC Loan Purchase"). Also included in the acquisition were certain related interest rate derivative assets and liabilities with a fair value of $ 109.0 million and $ 104.4 million, respectively, as of the date of the acquisition and whose maturities generally align with those of the loans acquired. The acquisition of the non-PCD loans and interest rate derivatives was accounted for as a purchase of financial assets and liabilities, and the Company recognized a $ 92.4 million gain on the transaction included in "Gain on acquisition" in the Consolidated Statement of Income.
 For additional information on PCD loans, see Note 1—"Organizations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," and for additional information on the Company's loans and derivative instruments, see Note 5—"Loans & Allowance For Credit Losses" and Note 6—"Derivatives," respectively.

 3. FAIR VALUE
 Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:

 Level 1:

 Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.

 Level 2:

 Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

 Level 3:

 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the asset or liability. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models such as discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation.

 Classification in the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the asset or liability.
 The following section describes the valuation methodologies used by the Company to measure various financial instruments at fair value, including an indication of the level in the fair-value hierarchy in which each instrument is generally classified:
 Securities—trading and available-for-sale. Trading and available-for-sale securities are recorded at fair value. Available-for-sale securities consist of mortgage-backed securities ("MBS") issued by U.S. government-backed, including Ginnie Mae, or government-sponsored enterprises including Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac ("agency"), MBS issued by non-agencies and municipal securities. Fair value for agency securities and municipal securities are generally based on quoted market prices of similar securities used to form a dealer quote or a pricing matrix. These securities are classified in Level 2. There continues to be significant illiquidity in the market for MBS issued by non-agencies, impacting the availability and reliability of transparent pricing. As orderly quoted market prices are not available, the Level 3 fair values for these securities are determined by the Company utilizing industry-standard tools to calculate the net present value of the expected cash flows available to the securities from the underlying mortgage assets.

 To determine the performance of the underlying mortgage loan pools, the Company estimates prepayments, defaults, and loss severities based on a number of macroeconomic factors, including housing price changes, unemployment rates, interest rates and borrower attributes such as credit score and loan documentation at the time of origination. The Company inputs for each security a projection of monthly default rates, loss severity rates and voluntary prepayment rates for the underlying mortgages for the remaining life of the security to determine the expected cash flows. The projections of default rates are derived by the Company from the historic default rate observed in the pool of loans collateralizing the security, increased by and decreased by the forecasted increase or decrease in the national unemployment rate. The projections of loss severity rates are derived by the Company from the historic loss severity rate observed in the pool of loans, increased by or decreased by the forecasted increase or decrease in the national home price index ("HPI"). The largest factors influencing the Company's modeling of the monthly default rate are unemployment and the HPI, as a strong correlation exists. The most updated unemployment rate reported in June 2024 was 4.1 %. Consensus estimates for unemployment are that the rate will increase. The Company agrees with consensus estimates and thus is projecting higher monthly default rates. The Company projects that severities will continue to improve as HPI improves.
 To determine the discount rates used to compute the present value of the expected cash flows for these non-agency MBS securities, the Company separates the securities by the borrower characteristics in the underlying pool. Specifically, "prime" securities generally have borrowers with higher FICO scores and better documentation of income. "Alt-A" securities generally have borrowers with a lower FICO and less documentation of income. "Pay-option ARMs" are Alt-A securities with borrowers that tend to pay the least amount of principal (or increase their loan balance through negative amortization). The Company calculates separate discount rates for prime, Alt-A and Pay-option ARM non-agency MBS securities using market-participant assumptions for risk, capital and return on equity. The default rates and the severities are projected for every non-agency MBS security held by the Company and will vary monthly based upon the actual performance of the security and the macroeconomic factors discussed above. Based upon the actual performance of the underlying collateral, the securities' credit enhancement will be impacted. The Company applies its discount rates to the projected monthly cash flows, which already reflect the full impact of all forecasted losses using the assumptions described above.
 The Company's estimate of fair value for non-agency securities using Level 3 pricing is highly subjective and is based on the Company's estimate of voluntary prepayments, default rates, severities and discount margins, which are forecasted monthly over the remaining life of each security. Changes in one or more of these assumptions can cause a significant change in the estimated fair value. For further details see the table later in this note that summarizes quantitative information about level 3 fair value measurements.
 Loans Held for Sale. The fair value of loans held for sale is determined by pricing for comparable assets or by existing forward sales commitment prices with investors. Loans held for sale are classified as Level 2.
 Other Real Estate Owned and Repossessed Vehicles. Fair values are generally based on third party appraisals of the property, resulting in a Level 3 classification. In cases where the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, less costs to sell, a valuation allowance is recognized.
 Servicing Rights. Fair value is derived from market-driven valuation changes as well as modeled amortization involving the run-off of value that occurs due to the passage of time as individual loans are paid by borrowers. Market expectations about loan duration, and correspondingly the expected term of future servicing cash flows, may vary from time to time due to changes in expected prepayment activity, especially when interest rates rise or fall. Fair value is also dependent on the discount rate used in calculating present value, which is derived from observable market activity, market participants, and results in Level 3 classification. Management reviews and adjusts the discount rate and prepayment assumptions on an ongoing basis.
 Derivatives. The fair value of interest rate locks is estimated based on changes in to be announced ("TBA") values which are based upon mortgage interest rates from the date the interest on the loan is locked, adjusted for items such as estimated fallout and costs to originate the loan. These are classified under level 2.
 The fair value of forward sale commitments is based upon prices in active secondary markets for identical securities or based on quoted market prices of similar assets used to form a dealer quote or a pricing matrix. If no such quoted price exists, the fair value of a commitment is determined by quoted prices for a similar commitment or commitments, adjusted for the specific attributes of each commitment. These are classified under level 2.
 The fair value of interest rate swaps and caps entered into to facilitate customer transaction activity is based upon observable market forward rate curves. These are classified under Level 2.

 1 The weighted average for Securities - Non-agency MBS is based on the relative fair value of the securities and for Servicing Rights is based on the relative unpaid principal of the loans being serviced.
 For mortgage-backed securities, significant increases (decreases) in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Generally, a change in the assumption used for the probability of default is accompanied by a directionally similar change in the assumption used for the projected loss severity and a directionally opposite change in the assumption used for projected prepayment rates. For servicing rights, significant increases in projected prepayment rates or discount rates in isolation would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement, while a significant increase in expected life in isolation would result in a significantly higher fair value measurement. Generally, a change in the projected prepayment rates is accompanied by a directionally opposite change in expected life.

 The methods and assumptions, not previously presented, used to estimate fair value are described as follows: carrying amount is the estimated fair value for cash and cash equivalents, interest-bearing deposits, accrued interest receivable and payable, demand deposits, short-term debt, and variable rate loans or deposits that reprice frequently and fully. For fixed rate loans, deposits, borrowings or subordinated debt and for variable rate loans, deposits, borrowings or subordinated debt with infrequent repricing or repricing limits, fair value is based on discounted cash flows using current market rates applied to the estimated life and credit risk. A discussion of the methods of valuing trading securities, available-for-sale securities and loans held for sale can be found earlier in this footnote. The fair value of off-balance sheet items is not considered material.

 1 Includes securities guaranteed by Ginnie Mae, a U.S. government agency, and the government sponsored enterprises Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
 2 Private sponsors of securities collateralized primarily by first-lien mortgage loans on commercial properties or by pools of 1-4 family residential first mortgages. Primarily super senior securities secured by prime, Alt-A or pay-option ARM mortgages.

 The Company evaluates available-for-sale securities in an unrealized loss position based on an analysis of a number of factors, including, but not limited to: (1) the credit characteristics of the securities, such as the forecasted cash flows, credit ratings, credit enhancement, and government agency or government sponsored enterprise backing, as applicable, and (2) whether the Company intends to sell or will be required to sell any of the securities before recovering the amortized cost basis. Based on its analysis, the Company determined the unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities are primarily driven by the increase in interest rates since the securities were purchased and, accordingly, no credit losses were recognized on AFS securities for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022 and there was no amount in the allowance for credit losses for available-for-sale securities at June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023.
 The face amounts of available-for-sale securities pledged to secure borrowings at June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 were $ 0.8 million and $ 0.9 million, respectively.

 During the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, there were no sales of securities.

 The allowance for credit losses increased primarily due to loan growth in the Commercial & Industrial-Non-RE, reflecting higher balances in capital call facilities, and due to the Multifamily and Commercial Mortgage and Commercial Real Estate loans acquired in the FDIC Loan Purchase. While charge-offs in the Auto & Consumer portfolio increased in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, compared to the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, auto originations were lower in the current year and the portfolio balance is declining.
 Loan products within each portfolio contain varying collateral types which impact the estimate of the loss given default utilized in the calculation of the allowance. For further discussion of the model method of estimating expected lifetime credit losses see Note 1—"Organizations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies."

 Credit Quality Indicators. The Company categorizes loans into risk categories based on relevant information about the ability of borrowers to service their debt such as: current financial information, historical payment experience, credit documentation, public information, and current economic trends. The Company analyzes loans individually by classifying the loans based on credit risk. The Company uses the following definitions for risk ratings.
 Pass. Loans classified as pass are well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or by the fair value of any underlying collateral, less cost to acquire and sell in a timely manner.
 Special Mention. Loans classified as special mention have a potential weakness that deserves management's close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects for the loan or of the institution's credit position at some future date after considering the obligor's current net worth and paying capacity and the underlying collateral value less cost to acquire and sell in a timely manner.
 Substandard. Loans classified as substandard are inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans so classified have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
 Doubtful. Loans classified as doubtful have all the weaknesses inherent in those classified as substandard, with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
 The Company reviews and grades loans following a continuous review process, featuring coverage of all loan types and business lines at least quarterly. Continuous reviewing provides more effective risk monitoring because it immediately tests for potential impacts caused by changes in personnel, policy, products or underwriting standards.

 Loans reaching 90+ days past due are generally placed on nonaccrual. As of June 30, 2024 and 2023, there were loans of $ 20.2 million and $ 14.1 million, respectively, over 90 days past due and still accruing interest as the Company expects to collect the principal and interest amounts due and such amounts are in the process of collection.
 Single family mortgage loans in process of foreclosure were $ 20.1 million and $ 17.7 million as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
 Credit Risk Concentration
 Concentrations of credit risk arise when a number of borrowers are engaged in similar business activities in the same geographic region, or when they have similar economic features that would cause their ability to meet contractual obligations to be similarly affected by changes in economic conditions.
 Concentrations of 10% or more existed in the Single Family, Multifamily and Commercial Real Estate loan categories at June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023.
 At June 30, 2024, California accounted for 69.3 % and New York accounted for 11.7 % of loans in the Single Family loan category. California accounted for 49.6 % and New York accounted for 38.9 % of loans in the Multifamily loan category. New York accounted for 34.2 % and Florida accounted for 10.4 % of loans in the Commercial Real Estate loan category.
 At June 30, 2023, California accounted for 71.4 % and New York accounted for 11.0 % of loans in the Single Family loan category. California accounted for 69.1 % and New York accounted for 19.7 % of loans in the Multifamily loan category. New York accounted for 37.5 % and Florida accounted for 10.5 % of loans in the Commercial Real Estate loan category.
 Related Party Loans
 In the ordinary course of business, the Company has granted related party loans collateralized by real property to certain executive officers, directors and their affiliates, which is summarized in the following table:

 Loan Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty. The Company may grant certain modifications of loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, which effective following the adoption of ASU 2022-02, are reported as financial difficulty modifications ("FDMs"). The Company's modification programs provide various modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty, which may include interest rate reductions, term extensions, payment delays and/or principal forgiveness. FDMs during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 were not significant.
 Prior to adoption of ASU 2022-02, the Company accounted for certain modifications as troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs"). Approximately 1.77 % of our nonaccrual loans were considered TDRs at June 30, 2023. Borrowers that made timely payments after TDRs were considered non-performing for at least six months. Generally, after six months of timely payments, those TDRs were reclassified from the nonaccrual loan category to the performing loan category and any previously deferred interest income was recognized. The Company had no TDRs classified as performing loans at June 30, 2023.

 6. DERIVATIVES
 The following table presents the fair values and notional amounts of the Company's derivative instruments. While the notional amounts give an indication of the volume of the Company's derivatives activity, the notional amounts significantly exceed, in the Company's view, the possible losses that could arise from such transactions. For most derivative contracts, the notional amount is not exchanged, rather it is a reference amount used to calculate payments.

 7. OFFSETTING OF DERIVATIVES AND SECURITIES FINANCING AGREEMENTS
 The Company enters into derivatives transactions as part of its mortgage banking activities, makes markets in interest rate swap and cap derivatives to facilitate customer demand, and enters into securities borrowed and securities loaned transactions to facilitate customer match-book activity, cover short positions and support customer securities lending. The Company manages credit exposure from certain of these transactions by entering into master netting agreements. The relevant agreements allow for the efficient closeout of transactions, liquidation and set-off of collateral against the net amount owed by the counterparty following a default. Default events generally include failure to pay, insolvency or bankruptcy of a counterparty.

 The following tables present information about the offsetting of these instruments and related collateral amounts:

RSUs granted generally vest over a three-year period based on service, with 33 % of the underlying shares vesting on each annual anniversary of the award.
 2014 Plan. In November 2023, the Company's Board of Directors and stockholders, respectively, approved the 2014 Plan, as amended and restated. The number of shares authorized for issuance pursuant to awards under the 2014 Plan is 6,680,000, less RSU awards granted, plus any RSUs that become available upon the forfeiture, expiration, cancellation or settlement in cash awards outstanding under the 2014 Plan. At June 30, 2024, 1,755,662 shares of common stock remained available for issuance pursuant to grant awards under the 2014 Plan.
 Effective July 1, 2017, the Company entered into an employment agreement with its Chief Executive Officer (the "Agreement") that authorizes an award of RSUs (the "RSU award"). The RSU award is an equity-based award and carries a service condition and a market condition that incorporates a measurement of the Company's total stock return to stockholders in comparison to the total stock return of the ABA Nasdaq Community Bank Index. The accounting grant date of the RSU award is July 1, 2017 and expensing of the RSU award began on this date at the fair value measurement amount as determined by the Company's valuation process. The Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation to estimate the value of path-dependent options and determined the fair value using an expected return based on the 5-year US Treasury constant maturity rate, an equity volatility based on 6-month and 1-year historical daily trading history, market capitalization, and stock price for the RSU award. On July 1, 2017, the estimated fair value of the RSU award was $ 20.5 million, which vests in five tranches over a total period of nine years.

 Effective each of January 1, 2024 (the "2024 Award"), 2023 (the "2023 Award") and 2022 (the "2022 Award"), the Agreement automatically renewed for one additional fiscal year with the accounting grant date the same as the renewal date of the respective award. For the 2024 Award, 2023 Award and 2022 Award, the Company utilized a Monte Carlo simulation with key inputs of an expected return on the average of the 1 and 2 year U.S. Treasury constant maturity rate, an equity volatility based on 1.5 year historical daily trading history, market capitalization, and stock price. The estimated fair values for the 2024, 2023 Award and 2022 Award were $ 9.4 million, $ 5.2 million and $ 8.8 million, respectively, on each award's grant date. The actual award will be determined by the actual performance of the Company's total stock return in comparison to the total stock return of the ABA Nasdaq Community Bank Index in the respective periods.
 As of June 30, 2024, compensation expense not yet recognized over the remaining five years related to the Agreement and subsequent renewals is $ 14.4 million.
 At June 30, 2024, compensation expense not yet recognized related to non-vested awards was $ 53.4 million and the weighted-average period over which it is expected to be recognized is 1.2 years.
 The following table presents the status and changes in RSUs for the periods indicated:

 18. COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND OFF-BALANCE-SHEET ACTIVITIES
 Credit-Related Financial Instruments. The Company is a party to credit-related financial instruments with off-balance-sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of its customers. These financial instruments are commitments to extend credit. Such commitments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
 The Company's exposure to credit loss is represented by the contractual amount of these commitments. The Company follows the same credit policies in making commitments as it does for on-balance-sheet instruments. The following table presents a summary of off-balance sheet commitments.

 In addition, the Company has $ 40.6 million of commitments to contribute capital to LIHTC investments included in "Accounts Payable and Other Liabilities" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Refer to Note 9—"Other Assets" for additional information on LIHTC investments.
 Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer so long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. The amount of collateral obtained, if it is deemed necessary by the Company, is based on management's credit evaluation of the customer. For single family loans classified as held for sale, the Company matches unfunded commitments to originate loans with commitments to sell loans. The Company also has standby letters of credit commitments.
 In the normal course of business, Axos Clearing's customer activities involve the execution, settlement, and financing of various customer securities transactions. These activities may expose Axos Clearing to off-balance-sheet risk in the event the customer or other broker is unable to fulfill its contracted obligations and Axos Clearing has to purchase or sell the financial instrument underlying the contract at a loss. Axos Clearing's clearing agreements with broker-dealers for which it provides clearing services requires them to indemnify Axos Clearing if customers fail to satisfy their contractual obligation. As of June 30, 2024, non-customer and customer margin securities were available to the Company to utilize as collateral on various borrowings or for other purposes. The Company utilized $ 74.2 million of these available securities as collateral for securities loaned, $ 122.1 million for bank loans, and $ 34.9 million to meet OCC margin requirements of $ 16.3 million.
 Litigation. A consolidated derivative action, In re BofI Holding, Inc., Case No. 15cv2722 GPC (KSC), is pending before the United States District Court for the Southern District of California (the "Derivative Action"). The complaint in the Derivative Action sets forth allegations made in a related employment action, Erhart v. BofI Holding Inc., No. 15cv2287 BAS (NLS) (S.D. Cal.) (the "Employment Action") brought by a former employee of the Company and was stayed pending resolution of the Employment Action. On October 4, 2023, the court hearing the Employment Action entered a final amended judgment awarding damages and attorneys' fees to the plaintiff. The defendant filed a Notice of Appeal from the Employment Action judgment and all orders merged therein, and both parties have filed opening briefs. On January 2, 2024, the Derivative Action plaintiff filed a Third Amended Complaint. On March 5, 2024, the court stayed the case until resolution of the appeal in the Employment Action. The Derivative Action defendants dispute, and intend to vigorously defend against, the allegations raised in the Third Amended Complaint. The Derivative Action plaintiff seeks damages on behalf of the Company with respect to the Employment Action and also seeks damages on behalf of the Company in connection with a now settled securities class action that was also based upon allegations made in the Employment Action and settled within available insurance coverage without attribution of wrongdoing to the Company, its management, or its directors.
 In view of the inherent difficulty of predicting the final outcome of the Employment Action it is not possible to reasonably predict or estimate the eventual loss or range of loss, if any, related thereto.
 On October 26, 2022, a jury verdict was reached in the case of MUFG Union Bank, N.A. v. Axos Bank, et al, awarding damages to MUFG Union Bank, N.A. Judgment on such verdict was initially entered on June 5, 2023, and a corrected judgment was entered on June 20, 2023. The Company filed a Notice of Appeal to the Supreme Court of the State of New York Appellate Division (the "Appellate Division") on July 6, 2023, and the plaintiff filed a Notice of Cross-Appeal on July 20, 2023. The Appellate Division held oral arguments on the appeal and cross-appeal on March 5, 2024. On March 26, 2024, the Appellate Division entered an order vacating the finding of liability and award of $ 2.5 million in damages for plaintiff's breach of contract claim as well as the associated prejudgment interest. In addition, the Appellate Division rejected plaintiff's cross appeal. On July 18, 2024, the Appellate Division denied defendants' motion for leave to appeal and plaintiff's cross-motion for re-argument or leave to appeal the March 26, 2024 order. The Company now intends to file an appeal with the New York Court of Appeals regarding the question of whether a terminable-at-will contract can support a claim for tortious interference. The Company recorded a $ 16 million accrued expense in "Accounts payable and other liabilities" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets and in "General and administrative expense" on the Consolidated Statement of Income as of and for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2023, respectively. Given the uncertainty of the appellate process and other factors that are unknown or currently unquantifiable, the Company maintained its accrual at June 30, 2024.

 19. REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS
 Consolidated and the Bank. The Company and Bank are subject to regulatory capital adequacy requirements promulgated by federal bank regulatory agencies. Failure by the Company or Bank to meet minimum capital requirements could result in certain mandatory and discretionary actions by regulators that could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. The Federal Reserve establishes capital requirements for the Company and the OCC has similar requirements for the Bank. Under these capital requirements and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Company and Bank's assets, liabilities and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company's and Bank's capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors.
 Quantitative measures established by regulation require the Company and Bank to maintain certain minimum capital amounts and ratios. Federal bank regulators require the Company and Bank to maintain minimum ratios of tier 1 capital to adjusted average assets of 4.0 %, common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 4.5 %, tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 6.0 % and total risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets of 8.0 %. To be "well capitalized," the Company and Bank must maintain minimum leverage, common equity tier 1 risk-based, tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios of at least 5.0 %, 6.5 %, 8.0 % and 10.0 %, respectively. At June 30, 2024, the Company and Bank met all the capital adequacy requirements to which they were subject. At June 30, 2024, the Company and Bank were "well capitalized" under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. Management believes that no conditions or events have occurred since June 30, 2024 that would materially adversely change the Company's and Bank's capital classifications. From time to time, we may need to raise additional capital to support the Company's and Bank's further growth and to maintain their "well capitalized" status.
 The Company and Bank both elected the five-year CECL transition guidance for calculating regulatory capital and ratios and the June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 amounts reflect this election. This guidance allowed an entity to add back to regulatory capital 100% of the impact of the day one CECL transition adjustment and 25% of subsequent increases to the allowance for credit losses through June 30, 2023. Beginning with fiscal year 2023, this cumulative amount is phased out of regulatory capital at 25% per year until it is 100% phased out of regulatory capital beginning in fiscal year 2026.
 The Company's and Bank's capital amounts, capital ratios and capital requirements under Basel III were as follows:

 Under Basel III all banking organizations are required to maintain a capital conservation buffer above the minimum risk-based capital requirements in order to avoid certain limitations on capital distributions, stock repurchases and discretionary bonus payments to executive officers. The capital conservation buffer is exclusively composed of common equity tier 1 capital, and it applies to each of the three risk-based capital ratios but not the leverage ratio. At June 30, 2024, the Company and Bank

 were in compliance with the capital conservation buffer requirement. Inclusive of the fully phased-in capital conservation buffer, the common equity Tier 1 capital, Tier 1 risk-based capital and total risk-based capital ratio minimums are 7.0 %, 8.5 % and 10.5 %, respectively. A banking organization with a buffer of less than the required amount is subject to increasingly stringent limitations on such distributions and payments as the buffer approaches zero. In addition, these requirements also generally prohibit a banking organization from making such distributions or payments during any quarter if its eligible retained income is negative and its capital conservation buffer ratio was 2.5% or less at the end of the previous quarter. The eligible retained income of a banking organization is defined as its net income for the four calendar quarters preceding the current calendar quarter, based on the organization's quarterly regulatory reports, net of any distributions and associated tax effects not already reflected in net income.
 Axos Clearing. Pursuant to the net capital requirements of the Exchange Act, Axos Clearing is subject to the SEC Uniform Net Capital (Rule 15c3-1 of the Exchange Act). Under this rule, the Company has elected to operate under the alternate method and is required to maintain minimum net capital of $250,000 or 2% of aggregate debit balances arising from client transactions, as defined. Under the alternate method, Axos Clearing may not repay subordinated debt, pay cash distributions, or make any unsecured advances or loans to its parent or employees if such payment would result in net capital of less than 5% of aggregate debit balances or less than 120% of its minimum dollar requirement.
 The net capital positions of Axos Clearing were as follows:

 Axos Clearing, as a clearing broker, is subject to the SEC Customer Protection Rule (Rule 15c3-3 of the Exchange Act) which requires segregation of funds in a special reserve account for the exclusive benefit of customers ("Customer Reserve Bank Account") and proprietary accounts of brokers ("PAB Reserve Account"). As of June 30, 2024, Axos Clearing was in compliance with its Customer Reserve Bank Account and PAB Reserve Account deposit requirements.

 20. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN
 The Company has one 401(k) plan whereby substantially all of its employees may participate in the plan. Employees may contribute up to 100 % of their compensation subject to certain limits based on federal tax laws. The Company provides an employer matching contribution to the 401(k) plan based on an employee's designated deferral of their eligible compensation. For the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024, 2023, and 2022, expenses attributable to the plan amounted to $ 4.5 million, $ 3.5 million, and $ 3.6 million, respectively. These expenses are included in "Salaries and related costs" in the Consolidated Statements of Income. The contribution made during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, was 72,708 shares with a fair market value of $ 4.0 million.

 22. SEGMENT REPORTING
 The operating segments reported below are the segments of the Company for which separate financial information is available and for which segment results are evaluated regularly by the Chief Executive Officer in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The operating segments and segment results of the Company are determined based upon the management reporting system, which assigns balance sheet and income statement items to each of the business segments and by which segment results are evaluated by the Chief Executive Officer in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.
 The Company evaluates performance and allocates resources based on pre-tax profit or loss from operations in conjunction with its corporate strategy. Certain revenues, expenses, assets, and liabilities are presented in "Corporate/Eliminations" in the tables below as they do not exceed the thresholds established for reportable segments under U.S. GAAP.
 The Company operates through two operating segments: Banking Business Segment and Securities Business Segment. Inter-segment transactions are eliminated in consolidation and primarily include non-interest income earned by the Securities Business Segment and non-interest expense incurred by the Banking Business Segment for cash sorting fees related to deposits sourced from Securities Business Segment customers, as well as interest expense paid by the Banking Business Segment to each of the wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company and to the Company itself for their operating cash held on deposit with the Banking Business Segment.
 Banking Business Segment. The Banking Business Segment includes a broad range of banking services including online banking, concierge banking, and mortgage, vehicle and unsecured lending through online, low-cost distribution channels to serve the needs of consumers and small businesses nationally, and includes both loans held for investment and held for sale as well as originated and purchased loans. In addition, the Banking Business Segment focuses on providing deposit products nationwide to industry verticals (e.g., Title and Escrow), treasury management products to a variety of businesses, and commercial & industrial and commercial real estate lending to clients. The Banking Business Segment includes a bankruptcy

 trustee and fiduciary service that provides specialized software and consulting services to Chapter 7 bankruptcy and non-Chapter 7 trustees and fiduciaries. In addition, the assets and activities related to two lending-related trust entities are included in the Banking Business Segment.
 Securities Business Segment. The Securities Business Segment includes the clearing broker-dealer, registered investment advisor custody business, and introducing broker-dealer lines of businesses. These lines of business offer products independently to their own customers as well as to Banking Business Segment clients.
 In order to reconcile the two segments to the consolidated totals, the Company includes parent-only activities and intercompany eliminations. The following tables present the operating results, goodwill, and assets of the segments:
