Exhibit 99.2
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information has been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting under the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification, ASC 805 "Business Combinations", giving effect to Burke & Herbert Financial Services Corp.’s (“Burke & Herbert”) acquisition of LINKBANCORP, Inc. (“LNKB”). Under this method, LNKB's assets and liabilities as of the date of the merger will be recorded at their respective fair values and added to those of Burke & Herbert. Any difference between the purchase price for LNKB and the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired (including core deposit intangibles) will be recorded as goodwill. The goodwill resulting from the merger will not be amortized to expense, but instead will be reviewed for impairment at least annually. Any core deposit intangible and other intangible assets with estimated useful lives to be recorded by Burke & Herbert in connection with the merger will be amortized to expense over their estimated useful lives. The financial statements of Burke & Herbert issued after the merger will reflect the results attributable to the acquired operations of LNKB beginning on the date of completion of the merger. Effective at 12:01 A.M. Eastern Time on May 1, 2026 (the "Effective Time"), Burke & Herbert, a Virginia corporation, completed its merger with LNKB, a Pennsylvania corporation, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated December 18, 2025 between Burke & Herbert and LNKB (the “Merger Agreement”).
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information and accompanying notes are based on and should be read in conjunction with (i) the historical audited consolidated financial statements of Burke & Herbert and accompanying notes included in Burke & Herbert's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and (ii) the historical audited consolidated financial statements of LNKB and accompanying notes included in LNKB's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, which are incorporated by reference herein.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information is provided for illustrative information purposes only. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not necessarily, and should not be assumed to be, an indication of the actual results that would have been achieved had the merger been completed as of the dates indicated or that may be achieved in the future. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, Pro Forma Information, which requires the depiction of the accounting for the transaction, which we refer to as transaction accounting adjustments.
Regulation S-X also allows for management adjustments that could include presentation of the reasonably estimable cost savings and revenue enhancements and other transaction effects that have occurred or are reasonably expected to occur. Please note the unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial information does not include management adjustments for any potential effects of changes in market conditions, revenue enhancements or expense efficiencies, or any post-closing sale of loans or deposits, among other factors.
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025, combines the historical financial statements of Burke & Herbert and LNKB and gives effect to the merger as if the merger occurred on December 31, 2025. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated income statement gives effect to the merger as if the merger occurred on January 1, 2025, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2025. Certain reclassification adjustments have been made to LNKB’s financial statements to conform to Burke & Herbert's financial statement presentation.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated financial statements were prepared with Burke & Herbert as the accounting acquirer and LNKB as the accounting acquiree under the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly, the consideration paid by Burke & Herbert to complete the merger of LNKB will be allocated to LNKB's assets and liabilities based upon their estimated fair values as of the date of completion of the merger. The allocation is dependent upon certain valuations and other studies that have been included in the unaudited condensed pro forma financial statements. The pro forma calculations, shown below, include a closing share price of $64.31, which represents the closing price of Burke & Herbert's common stock on April 30, 2026, and a 5-day average share price of $64.35 used to pay fractional shares as agreed upon within the Merger Agreement, defined as the average of the closing sale prices of Burke & Herbert common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Stock
Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) for the consecutive five (5) full trading days ending on the third trading day immediately preceding (but not including) May 1, 2026.
In November 2025, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2025-08, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326). ASU 2025-08 expands the use of the gross-up method to certain acquired loans, including purchased seasoned loans (“PSL”), which are loans acquired in a business combination or otherwise purchased after origination that do not meet the definition of purchased credit deterioration (“PCD”) assets. Under ASU 2025-08, the gross-up method also applies to acquired non-PCD loans that qualify as PSL. This eliminates the recognition of “day-one” credit loss expense and instead increases the amortized cost basis of such loans, affecting the pattern of interest income recognized in subsequent periods.
ASU 2025-08 is effective for interim and annual periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and is applied prospectively. Burke & Herbert early adopted this standard as of January 1, 2026, described in Note 1 of the Burke & Herbert’s Form 10-Q for the three months ended March 31, 2026, filed with the SEC on May 8, 2026. Accordingly, the pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in conformity with ASU 2025-08 and Burke & Herbert’s accounting policies in effect as of March 31, 2026.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined consolidated combined statements of income and earnings per share data do not include anticipated cost savings or revenue enhancements. Burke & Herbert is continuing to assess the two companies’ personnel, benefits plans, premises, equipment, computer systems, and service contracts to determine where the companies may take advantage of redundancies or where it will be beneficial or necessary to convert to one system. Certain decisions arising from these assessments may involve canceling contracts between either Burke & Herbert or LNKB and certain service providers. There is no assurance that the anticipated cost savings will be realized on the anticipated time schedule or at all.
The pro forma combined basic and diluted earnings per share of Burke & Herbert common stock are based on the pro forma combined net income per common share for Burke & Herbert and LNKB divided by the pro forma basic or diluted common shares of the combined entities. The pro forma information includes adjustments related to the fair value of assets and liabilities of LNKB and is subject to adjustment in accordance with ASC 805 for facts and circumstances that existed as of the merger date as additional information becomes available and as final merger data analyses are performed.
The unaudited pro forma data are qualified by the statements set forth under this caption and should not be considered indicative of the market value of Burke & Herbert's common stock or the actual or future results of operations of Burke & Herbert for any period. Actual results may be materially different than the pro forma information presented.

1.Transaction Accounting Adjustments
At the Effective Time, each share of LNKB common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“LNKB Common Stock”), outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, was converted into the right to receive 0.1350 shares (the “Exchange Ratio” and such shares the “Merger Consideration”) of Burke & Herbert common stock, par value $0.50 per share (“Burke & Herbert Common Stock”). Holders of LNKB common stock received cash in lieu of fractional shares. The merger is intended to be a tax-free reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at or immediately prior to the Effective Time, each time-vesting restricted share of LNKB Common Stock granted under LNKB's equity incentive plans (the "LNKB Stock Plans") that was outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Effective Time, fully vested and received the treatment set forth in the Merger Agreement applicable to shares of LNKB Common Stock, subject to applicable tax withholding as provided in the LNKB Stock Plans and applicable award agreements.
Also pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at or immediately prior to the Effective Time, each outstanding and unsettled restricted stock award granted in respect of LNKB Common Stock under the LNKB Stock Plans (each, an "LNKB RSU"), without any required action on the part of LNKB or any holder of such LNKB RSUs, fully vested (if unvested) and was canceled and automatically converted into the right to receive, with respect to each share of LNKB Common Stock underlying the LNKB RSU, the Merger Consideration, as if such LNKB RSU had been settled in shares of LNKB Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, subject to applicable tax withholding as provided in the LNKB Stock Plans and applicable award agreements.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each stock option in respect of shares of LNKB Common Stock granted under the LNKB Stock Plans (each such stock option, an "LNKB Option") that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, was assumed by Burke & Herbert (such LNKB Option, an "Assumed Option") and converted into a stock option exercisable for (subject to achievement of the applicable time-based vesting conditions based on service after the Closing Date to Burke & Herbert) a number of shares of Burke & Herbert Common Stock equal to the number of shares of LNKB Common Stock underlying the LNKB Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole share, with an exercise price per share of Burke & Herbert Common Stock equal to the exercise price applicable to the underlying LNKB Option immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest cent. Each Assumed Option shall continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to the corresponding LNKB Option immediately prior to the Effective Time.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, each warrant to acquire shares of LNKB Common Stock (each such warrant, an "LNKB Warrant") that was outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into a warrant exercisable for a number of shares of Burke & Herbert Common Stock equal to the number of shares of LNKB Common Stock underlying the LNKB Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole share. Such warrants have an exercise price per share of Burke & Herbert Common Stock equal to the exercise price applicable to the underlying LNKB Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest cent, and will otherwise continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to the underlying LNKB Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time.
The total estimated fully diluted transaction value (inclusive of the implied value of outstanding in-the-money stock options) for the purpose of this pro forma financial information is approximately $329.7 million based on Burke & Herbert’s closing price of $64.31 per share on April 30, 2026. The following is a summary of the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the merger resulting in goodwill. Goodwill is created when the purchase price consideration exceeds the fair value of the net assets acquired. For purposes of this analysis as of December 31, 2025, goodwill of $69.0 million results from the transaction; however, the final purchase accounting analysis will be
performed as of the merger date and amounts therein are subject to change based on operations subsequent to December 31, 2025, as additional information becomes available and as additional analyses are performed.
The preliminary pro forma allocation of the purchase price reflected in the pro forma condensed combined financial information is subject to adjustment and may vary from the actual purchase price allocation. Adjustments may include, but not be limited to, changes in (a) LNKB’s balance sheet and operating results through the Effective Time of the merger; (b) total merger-related costs if consummation and/or implementation costs vary from currently estimated amounts; and (c) the underlying values of assets and liabilities if market and credit conditions differ from current assumptions.
The pro forma adjustments include the estimated purchase accounting entries to record the merger. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets acquired, net of deferred taxes, is allocated to goodwill. Estimated fair value adjustments included in the pro forma condensed combined financial information are based upon available information and certain assumptions considered reasonable as of the date of this filing, and may be revised as additional information becomes available.
The following table shows the preliminary pro forma allocation of the estimated consideration to be paid in the merger for LNKB common stock, based on the closing share price of Burke & Herbert common stock of $64.31 on Nasdaq on April 30, 2026 to the acquired identifiable assets and liabilities assumed and the pro forma goodwill generated from the merger.
