Industry Information
Within this presentation, we reference certain industry and sector information and statistics. We have obtained this information and statistics from various independent, third-party sources. Nothing in the data used or derived from third-party sources should be construed as advice. Some data and other information are also based on our good faith estimates, which are derived from our review of internal surveys and independent sources. We believe that these external sources and estimates are reliable but have not independently verified them. Statements as to our market position are based on market data currently available to us. Although we are not aware of any misstatements regarding the demographic, economic, employment, industry and trade association data presented herein, these estimates involve inherent risks and uncertainties and are based on assumptions that are subject to change. Finally, forward-looking information obtained from these third-party sources is subject to the same qualifications and the additional uncertainties regarding the other forward-looking statements in this presentation.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This presentation includes financial information prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"). This presentation also includes non-GAAP financial information, which should be considered supplemental to, not a substitute for, or superior to, the financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management has presented these non-GAAP financial measures because we believe that these measures provide useful information to management and investors that is supplementary to our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted return on average assets, adjusted return on average equity, adjusted efficiency ratio and taxable equivalent net interest income are reasonable measures to understand the Company's core operating performance and are important to many investors who are interested in understanding our profitability prospects from our core operations.
However, we acknowledge that our non-GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations. As such, you should not view these disclosures as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, and they are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP financial measures that other banking companies use. Other banking companies may use names similar to those we use for the non-GAAP financial measures we disclose but may calculate them differently. You should understand how we and other companies each calculate their non-GAAP financial measures when making comparisons. For a description of the non-GAAP financial information included herein and reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, see the appendix to this presentation.

Venture Lending SaaS Exposure
AI Advancement and SaaS Transformation
The SaaS revenue model is undergoing a fundamental shift primarily driven by the accelerated advancements of AI. Pure SaaS businesses are viewed as the most vulnerable to AI-driven disruption.
Avidbank is closely monitoring an emerging divergence in SaaS companies focused on horizontal or vertical SaaS strategies:
Horizontal solves a specific functional problem, such as CRM, HR
or payroll, across a wide range of industries
Vertical is purpose-built for the unique workflows and regulatory requirements of a specific industry
The bank has conducted a thorough review of the SaaS loan portfolio to evaluate companies that could be impacted by AI disruption
SaaS borrowers are broadly utilizing AI-driven development
