\n
<\/b>FIRST QUARTER 2026 COMPARED TO THE FOURTH QUARTER 2025<\/b><\/p>\n \nNet income for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, was $86.9 million, a decrease of $3.6 million, or 4.0%, compared to net income of $90.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2025. Diluted earnings per share for the first quarter of 2026 was $1.29 per share compared to $1.33 per share for the fourth quarter of 2025.<\/p>\n \nReturn on average stockholders\u2019 equity was 11.88% and return on average assets was 1.47% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, compared to a return on average stockholders\u2019 equity of 12.27% and a return on average assets of 1.49% in the fourth quarter of 2025.<\/p>\n Net interest income before provision for credit losses<\/i><\/p>\n \nNet interest income before provision for credit losses decreased $0.8 million, or 0.4%, to $194.2 million during the first quarter of 2026, compared to $195.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2025. The decrease was due primarily to a decrease in interest income from loans and securities, partially offset by a decrease in deposit interest expense.<\/p>\n \nThe net interest margin was 3.43% for the first quarter of 2026 compared to 3.36% for the fourth quarter of 2025.<\/p>\n \nFor the first quarter of 2026, the yield on average interest-earning assets was 5.70%, the cost of funds on average interest-bearing liabilities was 2.99%, and the cost of average interest-bearing deposits was 2.96%. In comparison, for the fourth quarter of 2025, the yield on average interest-earning assets was 5.74%, the cost of funds on average interest-bearing liabilities was 3.14%, and the cost of average interest-bearing deposits was 3.12%. The decrease in the cost of funds on average interest-bearing liabilities resulted mainly from lower interest rates on deposits driven by the lower repricing of maturing time deposits in the first quarter. The decrease in the yield on average interest-earning assets resulted mainly from lower interest rates on loans. The net interest spread, defined as the difference between the yield on average interest-earning assets and the cost of funds on average interest-bearing liabilities, was 2.71% for the first quarter of 2026, compared to 2.60% for the fourth quarter of 2025.<\/p>\n Provision for credit losses<\/i><\/p>\n \nThe Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $18.2 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to $17.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2025. As of March 31, 2026, the allowance for loan losses increased by $12.9 million to $208.8 million, or 1.03% of gross loans, compared to $195.9 million, or 0.97% of gross loans as of December 31, 2025.<\/p>\n \nThe following table sets forth the charge-offs and recoveries for the periods indicated:<\/p>\n \n\n | \nThree months ended<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n | \nMarch 31, 2026<\/td>\n | | \nDecember 31, 2025<\/td>\n | | \nMarch 31, 2025<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n | \n(In thousands) (Unaudited)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| Charge-offs:<\/b><\/td>\n | | \n | \n | \n | \n | <\/tr>\n \n| Commercial loans<\/td>\n | \n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n7,971<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | | \n\n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n5,467<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | | \n\n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n2,344<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \nReal estate loans (1)<\/sup><\/td>\n| \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n1,385<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | | \n\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n409<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | | \n\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n\u2014<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| Total charge-offs<\/td>\n | \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n9,356<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | | \n\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n5,876<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | | \n\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n2,344<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| Recoveries:<\/b><\/td>\n | | \n | \n | \n | \n | <\/tr>\n \n| Commercial loans<\/td>\n | \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n7,078<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | | \n\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n517<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | | \n\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n270<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \nReal estate loans (1)<\/sup><\/td>\n| \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n155<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | | \n\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n3<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | | \n\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n97<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| Total recoveries<\/td>\n | \n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n7,233<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | | \n\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n520<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | | \n\n \n\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n367<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| Net charge-offs<\/td>\n | \n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n2,123<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | | \n\n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n5,356<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | | \n\n \n$<\/p>\n<\/td>\n | \n \n1,977<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n | \n | \n | \n | \n | \n\u00a0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n | \n| (1)<\/sup> Real estate loans include commercial real estate loans, residential mortgage loans and equity lines.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n Non-interest income<\/i><\/p>\n \nNon-interest income, which includes revenues from depository service fees, letters of credit commissions, securities gains (losses), wealth management fees, and other sources of fee income, was $20.7 million for the first quarter of 2026, a decrease of $7.1 million, or 25.5%, compared to $27.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2025. The decrease was primarily due to an impairment loss of $15.7 million on available-for-sale investment securities in connection with the Company\u2019s decision to sell certain impaired securities within that portfolio. The decrease was offset by an increase of $7.6 million in gains from equity securities, when compared to the fourth quarter of 2025.<\/p>\n Non-interest expense<\/i><\/p>\n \nNon-interest expense decreased $5.5 million, or 6.0%, to $86.7 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to $92.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2025. The decrease in non-interest expense in the first quarter of 2026 was primarily due to a decrease of $2.9 million in salaries and employee benefits, a decrease of $4.5 million in amortization expense of investments of low income housing and alternative energy partnerships offset, in part, by an increase of $1.5 million in other real estate owned expense, when compared to the fourth quarter of 2025. The efficiency ratio, defined as non-interest expense divided by the sum of net interest income before provision for loan losses plus non-interest income, was 40.35% in the first quarter of 2026 compared to 41.36% for the fourth quarter of 2025.<\/p>\n Income taxes<\/i><\/p>\n \nThe effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2026 was 20.98% compared to 20.23% for the fourth quarter of 2025. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2026 and fourth quarter of 2025 includes the impact of low-income housing tax credits.<\/p>\n BALANCE SHEET REVIEW<\/b><\/p>\n \nGross loans, excluding loans held for sale, were $20.17 billion as of March 31, 2026, an increase of $27.4 million, or 0.14%, from $20.15 billion as of December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $98.0 million, or 3.1%, in commercial loans, $24.0 million, or 0.2%, in commercial real estate loans, and $6.7 million, or 3.0%, in equity lines of credit offset, in part, by a decrease of $53.6 million, or 0.9%, in residential real estate loans, and $48.5 million, or 14.4%, in construction loans.<\/p>\n \nThe loan balances and composition as of

<\/b>SELECTED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
\n
<\/b>(Unaudited)<\/b><\/p>\n \nThe Company uses certain non-GAAP financial measures including tangible book value (\u201cTBV\u201d), tangible book value per share (\u201cTBV\/Share\u201d), tangible assets, tangible common equity (\u201cTCE\u201d) ratio, the return on average tangible common stockholders\u2019 equity (\u201cROATCE\u201d), and the Adjusted efficiency ratio. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with information useful in understanding its financial position, results of operations, the strength of its capital position, and overall business performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are used for performance measurement purposes, as well as for internal planning and forecasting, and by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties to assess peer company operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP-basis financial measures. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these with other companies that present financial measures having the same or similar names. The Company strongly encourages investors to review its consolidated financial statements in their entirety and to not rely on any single financial measure.<\/p>\n \nTBV represents stockholders\u2019 equity less goodwill and other intangible assets. TBV\/share represents TBV divided by the number of common shares outstanding at the end of the reporting period.
