2026 Q1 Earnings Highlights

Key Highlights

Strong Net Income Growth Net income available to common shareholders rose to $60.54M, up significantly from $43.61M year-over-year for the quarter.

NIM Expansion Continues Net Interest Margin improved to 2.70% (31 bps increase) driven by lower funding costs, despite lower asset yields.

Asset Quality Deterioration Non-performing assets increased to $203.40M (0.75% of assets) from $143.02M (0.54%) last quarter; non-accruals rose to 0.95%.

Capital Ratios Remain Strong Bank CET1 ratio held steady at 13.44%, well above minimum requirements, supporting controlled growth objectives.

Risk Factors

Rising Non-Performing Loans Non-accrual loans increased 49% sequentially to $191.35M, driven by two commercial relationships requiring active management.

Provisioning for Credit Losses Recorded $3.50M provision for credit losses this quarter, reversing zero provision last year, due to mixed credit metrics.

Interest Rate Risk Exposure NPV analysis shows potential significant decrease in NPV under adverse rate shifts, despite NIM improvement this period.

Regulatory Rating Upgrade While CRA rating improved to "Satisfactory," a future "Needs to Improve" rating could restrict expansion and branch activity.

Outlook

Focus on Commercial Lending Commercial loan originations accounted for 94% of the total originations this quarter, aligning with strategic focus shift.

Deposit Mix Optimization Strategy continues shifting away from Time Deposits (down 6.4%) toward lower-cost Transaction Accounts (up 4.5%).

Mortgage Origination Exit Impact Company no longer originates consumer single-family home loans since January 2025; existing portfolio remains significant.

Sufficient Capital Position Management believes strong equity position provides flexibility for managing balance sheet risk and supporting future controlled growth.
