CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This communication may contain certain forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, certain plans, expectations, goals, projections, and statements about the benefits of the proposed transaction (including statements about the future financial and operating results and impact on Heritage Commerce Corp’s (“Heritage”) earnings and tangible book value per share), the plans, objectives, expectations and intentions of CVB Financial Corp. (“Citizens”) and Heritage, the expected timing of completion of the transaction, and other statements that are not historical facts. Such statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks, estimates, uncertainties and other important factors that change over time and could cause actual results to differ materially from any results, performance, or events expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements, including as a result of the factors referenced below. Statements that do not describe historical or current facts, including statements about beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may be identified by words such as expect, anticipate, continue, believe, intend, estimate, plan, trend, objective, target, goal, or similar expressions, or future or conditional verbs such as will, may, might, should, would, could, or similar variations. The forward-looking statements are intended to be subject to the safe harbor provided by Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Although there is no assurance that any list of risks and uncertainties or risk factors is complete, below are certain factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained or implied in the forward-looking statements or historical performance: difficulties and delays in integrating Heritage’s business, key personnel and customers into Citizens’ business and operations, and achieving anticipated synergies, cost savings and other benefits from the transaction; higher than anticipated transaction costs; deposit attrition, operating costs, customer loss and other business disruption following the merger, including difficulties in maintaining relationships with employees; supply and demand for commercial or residential real estate and periodic deterioration in real estate prices and/or values in California or other states where Citizens and Heritage lend; a sharp or prolonged slowdown or decline in real estate construction, sales
or leasing activities; Citizens’ or Heritage’s ability to retain and increase market share, to retain and grow customers and to control expenses; the costs or effects of mergers, acquisitions or dispositions Citizens may make, whether Citizens and Heritage are able to obtain any required governmental approvals in connection with any such mergers, acquisitions or dispositions, and/or Citizens’ ability to realize the contemplated financial or business benefits associated with any such mergers, acquisitions or dispositions; Citizens’ or Heritage’s relationships with and reliance upon outside vendors with respect to certain of Citizens’ or Heritage’s key internal and external systems, applications and controls; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of one or both of the parties to terminate the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and Merger to which Citizens and Heritage are parties; changes in the financial performance and/or condition of Citizens’ or Heritage’s borrowers or depositors; fluctuations in Citizens’ or Heritage’s share price before closing, and the resulting impact on Citizens’ ability to raise capital or to make acquisitions, including as a result of the financial performance of the other party prior to closing, or more generally due to broader stock market movements, and the performance of financial companies and peer group companies; Citizens’ ability to recruit and retain key executives, board members and other employees; the failure of Citizens or Heritage to obtain regulatory or shareholder approvals, as applicable, or to satisfy any of the other conditions to the closing of the proposed merger on a timely basis or at all, and the risk that such approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect the combined company after the closing of the proposed transaction or adversely affect the expected benefits of the proposed transaction; the dilution caused by the issuance of shares of CVBF’s common stock in the transaction; possible impairment charges to goodwill, including any impairment that may result from increased volatility in Citizens’ or Heritage’s stock price; possible credit-related impairments or declines in the fair value of loans and securities held by CVBF or Heritage; volatility in the credit and equity markets and its effect on the general economy, and local, regional, national and international economic and market conditions, political events and public health developments and the impact they may have on CVBF or Heritage, their customers and their capital, deposits, assets and liabilities; Citizens’ or Heritage’s ability to attract deposits and other sources of funding or liquidity; changes in general economic, political, or industry conditions, and in conditions impacting the banking industry specifically; catastrophic events or natural disasters, including earthquakes, drought, climate change or extreme weather events that may affect our assets, communications or computer services, customers, employees or third-party vendors; public health crises and pandemics, and their effects on the economic and business environments in which Citizens and Heritage operate; the strength of the United States economy and the strength of the local economies in which we conduct business; the effects of, and changes in, immigration, trade, tariff, monetary, and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; the impact of changes in financial services policies, laws, regulations, and ongoing or unanticipated regulatory or legal proceedings or outcomes, including those concerning banking, taxes, securities, and insurance, and the application thereof by regulatory agencies; the effectiveness of Citizens’ or Heritage’s risk management framework and quantitative models and our ability to manage the risks involved in regulatory, legal or policy changes; the risks associated with Citizens’ or Heritage’s loan portfolio, including the risks of any geographic and industry concentrations; the impact of systemic or non-systemic failures, crisis or adverse developments at other banks on general investor sentiment regarding the stability and liquidity of banks; regulatory or other governmental inquiries or investigations, and/or the results of regulatory examinations or reviews; our ongoing relations with various federal and state regulators, including, but not limited to, the SEC, Federal Reserve Board, FDIC, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and California DFPI; and other factors that may affect the future results of Citizens and Heritage.
Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above can be found in CVBF’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (available here) and subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which are on file with the SEC and available on CVBF’s website at http://www.cbbank.com under the “Investors” tab, and in other documents CVBF files with the SEC, and in Heritage’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (available here) and subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which are on file with the SEC and available on Heritage’s website, www.heritagecommercecorp.com, under the “Investor Relations” tab and in other documents Heritage files with the SEC, and in each case, in particular, the discussion of “Risk Factors” set forth in such filings.
All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements set forth above. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and are based on information available at that time. Neither CVBF nor Heritage assumes any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect actual results, new information or future events, changes in assumptions or changes in circumstances or other factors affecting forward-looking statements that occur after the date the forward-looking statements were made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events except as required by federal securities laws. If CVBF or Heritage updates one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that CVBF or Heritage will make additional updates with respect to
those or other forward-looking statements. As forward-looking statements involve significant risks and uncertainties, caution should be exercised against placing undue reliance on such statements.

Recent Merger Announcement
On December 17, 2025, CVB Financial Corp. (Nasdaq: CVBF; together with Citizens Business Bank, National Association,
“Citizens”) and Heritage Commerce Corp (Nasdaq: HTBK; together with Heritage Bank of Commerce, “Heritage”), jointly
announced that they have entered into a definitive merger agreement. Under the terms of the agreement, Heritage will merge with and
into Citizens in an all-stock transaction valued at approximately $811 million, or $13.00 per HTBK share, based on CVBF’s closing
stock price on December 16, 2025. The value of the transaction is based on a specified closing price and is subject to CVBF stock
price fluctuations. Upon completion, the combination is expected to create a top-performing California business bank with
approximately $22 billion in assets, more than 75 offices and branches, and a deeply rooted presence in the State’s key economic
centers. The proposed merger has been unanimously approved by the respective Boards of Directors of both companies and is
expected to close in the second quarter of 2026, subject to customary regulatory approvals, Heritage and Citizens shareholder
approvals, and other closing conditions. For more information, please refer to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with
the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 17, 2025.
Reclassifications
During the first quarter of 2025, we reclassified Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) stock
dividends from interest income to noninterest income and the related average asset balances were reclassified from interest earning
assets to other assets on the “Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin” tables. The amounts for the prior periods were reclassified
to conform to the current presentation. These reclassifications did not affect previously reported net income or shareholders’ equity.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Financial results are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”)
and prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, certain non-GAAP performance measures and ratios are used by
management to evaluate and measure the Company’s performance. These measures include “adjusted” operating metrics that have
been adjusted to exclude notable expenses incurred in the second and fourth quarters of 2025 as well as other performance measures
and ratios adjusted for notable items. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures enhance comparability between
periods and in some instances are common in the banking industry. These non-GAAP financial measures should be supplemental to
primary GAAP financial measures and should not be read in isolation or relied upon as a substitute for primary GAAP financial
measures. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures is presented in the tables at the end of this press release under
“Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
Forward-Looking Statement Disclaimer
Certain matters discussed in this press release constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Such forward-looking statements are inherently uncertain in that they reflect plans and
expectations for future events. These statements may include, among other things, those relating to the Company’s future financial
performance, plans and objectives regarding future events, expectations regarding changes in interest rates and market conditions,
projected cash flows of our investment securities portfolio, the performance of our loan portfolio, loan growth, expenses, net interest
margin, estimated net interest income resulting from a shift in interest rates, expectation of high credit quality issuers ability to repay,
as well as statements relating to the anticipated effects on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations from expected
developments or events. Any statements that reflect our belief about, confidence in, or expectations for future events, performance or
condition should be considered forward-looking statements. Readers should not construe these statements as assurances of a given
level of performance, nor as promises that we will take actions that we currently expect to take. All statements are subject to various
risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside our control and some of which may fall outside our ability to predict or anticipate.
Accordingly, our actual results may differ materially from our projected results, and we may take actions or experience events that we
do not currently expect. Risks and uncertainties that could cause our financial performance to differ materially from our goals, plans,
expectations and projections expressed in forward-looking statements include those set forth in our filings with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, Item 1A of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, and
include: (i) cybersecurity risks that may affect us directly or may impact us indirectly by virtue of their effects on our clients, markets
or vendors, including our ability to identify and address cybersecurity risks, including those posed by the increasing use of artificial
intelligence (such as, but not limited to, ransomware, data security breaches, “denial of service” attacks, “hacking” and identity theft)
affecting us, our clients, and our third-party vendors and service providers; (ii) events that affect our ability to attract, recruit, and
retain qualified officers and other personnel to implement our strategic plan, and that enable current and future personnel to protect
and develop our relationships with clients, and to promote our business, results of operations and growth prospects; (iii) media items
and consumer confidence as those factors affect our clients’ confidence in the banking system generally and in our bank specifically;
(iv) adequacy of our risk management framework, disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting;
(v) market, geographic and sociopolitical factors that arise by virtue of the fact that we operate primarily in the general San Francisco
Bay Area of Northern California; (vi) risks of geographic concentration of our client base, our loans, and the collateral securing our
loans, as those clients and assets may be particularly subject to natural disasters and to events and conditions that directly or indirectly
affect those regions, including the particular risks of natural disasters (including earthquakes, fires, and flooding) and other events that
disproportionately affect that region; (vii) political events that have accompanied or that may in the future accompany or result from
recent political changes, particularly including the imposition of tariffs, sociopolitical events and conditions that result from political
conflicts and law enforcement activities that may adversely affect our markets or our clients; (viii) our ability to estimate accurately,
and to establish adequate reserves against, the risk of loss associated with our loan and lease portfolios and our factoring business;
(ix) inflationary pressures and changes in the interest rate environment that reduce our margins and yields, the fair value of financial
instruments or our level of loan originations, or increase the level of defaults, losses and prepayments on loans to clients, whether held
in the portfolio or in the secondary market; (x) factors that affect the value and liquidity of our investment portfolios, particularly the
values of securities available-for-sale; (xi) factors that affect our liquidity and our ability to meet client demands for withdrawals from
deposit accounts and undrawn lines of credit, including our cash on hand and the availability of funds from our own lines of credit;
(xii) increased capital requirements for our continual growth or as imposed by banking regulators, which may require us to raise
capital at a time when capital is not available on favorable terms or at all; (xiii) the expense and uncertain resolution of litigation
matters whether occurring in the ordinary course of business or otherwise, particularly including but not limited to the effects of recent
and ongoing developments in California labor and employment laws, regulations and court decisions; (xiv) operational issues
stemming from, and/or capital spending necessitated by, the potential need to adapt to industry changes in information technology
systems, on which we are highly dependent; and (xv) our success in managing the risks involved in the foregoing factors. In addition,
statements regarding the timing and impact of the closing of the proposed merger with Citizens are subject to risks and uncertainties.
For more information on factors that could cause our expectations regarding the proposed merger with Citizens to differ, potentially
materially, please refer to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 17,
2025.

(1)Includes loans held-for-sale. Nonaccrual loans are included in average balances.
(2)Yield amounts earned on loans include fees and costs. The accretion of net deferred loan fees into loan interest income was $935,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to
$628,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024. Prepayment fees totaled $1,065,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $117,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024.
(3)Reflects the FTE adjustment for Federal tax-exempt income based on a 21% tax rate. This is a non-GAAP financial measure as defined and discussed under “Non-GAAP Financial
Measures” in this press release.
RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Management considers adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share, which exclude the $9.2 million of pre-tax charges
primarily related to a legal settlement in the second quarter of 2025 and $2.1 million of pre-tax merger-related costs in the fourth
quarter of 2025, for the year ended December 31, 2025, as a useful measurement of the Company’s profitability compared to other
periods presented.
During the second quarter of 2025, the Company recorded pre-tax expenses of $9.2 million included in the other noninterest expense
on the Company’s consolidated income statement, primarily due to charges related to the settlement of certain litigation matters,
including the anticipated settlement of a previously disclosed class action and California Private Attorneys General Act (“PAGA”)
lawsuit that alleged the violation of certain California wage-and-hour and related laws and regulations, and charges related to the
planned closure of a Bank branch. During the fourth quarter of 2025, the Company recorded pre-tax expenses of $2.1 million included
in the other noninterest expense on the Company’s consolidated income statement, primarily due to charges related to investment
banker and legal fees resulting from the pending merger with CVBF. Certain merger-related costs are not tax deductible.

Management reviews yields on certain asset categories and the net interest margin of the Company on an FTE basis. In this non-
GAAP presentation, net interest income is adjusted to reflect tax-exempt interest income on an equivalent before-tax basis using tax
rates effective as of the end of the period. This measure ensures comparability of net interest income arising from both taxable and tax-
exempt sources. The following tables summarize components of FTE net interest income of the Company for the periods indicated:

Investor Presentation Fourth Quarter 2025 Exhibit 99.2
Forward Looking Statement Disclaimer and Basis of Presentation • This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 about Heritage Bank (the "Bank") and its holding company, Heritage Commerce Corp (the "Company"). Forward-looking statements are based on management’s knowledge, assumptions and beliefs as of today and include information concerning the possible or assumed future financial condition, results of operations, business and earnings outlook for the Company and the Bank. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. For a discussion of risk factors which could cause results to differ, please see the Company’s reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Company’s press releases. For more information on factors that could cause our expectations regarding the proposed merger with CVB Financial Corp. to differ, potentially materially, please refer to our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 17, 2025. Readers should not place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which reflect management's view only as of the date hereof. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly revise these forward- looking statements to reflect subsequent events or circumstances. • Financial results are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, certain non-GAAP performance measures and ratios are used by management to evaluate and measure the Company’s performance. These measures include “adjusted” operating metrics that have been adjusted to exclude notable expenses incurred in the second and fourth quarters of 2025 as well as other performance measures and ratios adjusted for notable items. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures enhance comparability between periods and in some instances are common in the banking industry. These non-GAAP financial measures should be supplemental to primary GAAP financial measures and should not be read in isolation or relied upon as a substitute for primary GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures are also presented in the Company’s Fourth quarter earnings release, which is available on the Company’s website at https://heritagecommercecorp.com. 2
• Loans held-for-investment (“HFI”) were $3.7 billion at December 31, 2025, up $71.4 million or 2% for the quarter. • New securities purchases combined with maturities of low-yield Treasurys increased the securities portfolio yield by 37 basis points for the quarter. • Fully Tax Equivalent (“FTE”) net interest margin(1) of 3.72%, an increase from 3.60%, on positive trends in deposit costs and stable loan yields. • Total deposits of $4.9 billion, up $126.5 million, or 2.6%.
