Princeton Bancorp, Inc. Leases Disclosure
Note 11 – Leases
The Company records a right of use asset (“ROU”) and a lease liability for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. The Company has elected the short-term lease recognition exemption such that the Company will not recognize ROU or lease liabilities for leases with a term less than 12 months from the commencement date. The Company is obligated under 30 operating leases agreements for 28 branches and its corporate offices with terms extending through 2041. The Company’s lease agreements include options to renew at the Company’s discretion. The extensions are reasonably certain to be exercised, therefore they were considered in the calculations of the ROU asset and lease liability.
The following table represents the classification of the Company’s right of use and lease liabilities (Dollars in thousands):

For the year ended December 31, 2025, the weighted-average remaining lease terms for operating leases was 10.2 years and the weighted-average discount rate used in the measurement of operating lease liabilities was 3.54 %. The Company used current FHLB fixed rate advances at the time the lease was placed in service for the term most closely aligning with remaining lease term to determine the discount rate.

About Leases Disclosures
Lease disclosures under ASC 842 provide a comprehensive view of a company's leased asset portfolio, including the split between operating and finance leases, discount rates used to present-value future payments, and the maturity schedule of lease obligations. This section reveals a significant source of off-balance-sheet commitments that were largely hidden before the current standard.
Key signals: the weighted-average discount rate affects the size of recorded lease liabilities — a higher rate reduces the reported obligation, so compare the chosen rate against the company's incremental borrowing rate. The operating versus finance lease mix affects both EBITDA and operating income presentation. Watch the maturity table for concentration risk: large payment cliffs in specific years may create cash flow pressure. Variable lease payments excluded from the liability measurement represent real obligations that do not appear on the balance sheet. Compare total lease costs against prior-year operating lease expense to assess the true economic burden.
