Excess Roth IRA Contribution

I made an excess Roth IRA contribution in the amount of $1400 on December 30, 2025 (really intended for 2026 but allocated to the 2025 year). I withdrew the excess contribution on January 2, 2026, and since there was a market drop, the withdrawal amount was $1390.34. I want to avoid the 6% penalty but will receive the 1099-R from my broker in January 2027.

Do I need to report the transaction in my 2025 taxes to avoid the 6% penalty? If so, how can I do it without the 1099-R form?
