- Total deposits decreased $205.3 million to $21,883.0 million as of March 31, 2026, compared to $22,088.3 million as of December 31, 2025 primarily due to decreases in all deposit categories except for savings deposits during the first quarter.

- Common equity tier 1 capital ratio decreased 8 basis points during the first quarter of 2026 to 14.30%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2025, primarily as a result of shares repurchased during first quarter, partially offset by lower risk-weighted assets primarily driven by lower loan balances.
“We are pleased to see continued improvement in our net interest margin and continue to execute on our previously announced share repurchase authorization,” said James A Reuter, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. “We are encouraged with the underlying momentum in the business as we enter the second quarter, with a strong commercial pipeline and ongoing fixed asset repricing supporting our confidence in continued earnings improvement.”
DIVIDEND DECLARATION
On April 28, 2026, the Company’s board of directors declared a dividend of $0.47 per common share, payable on May 21, 2026, to common stockholders of record as of May 11, 2026. The dividend equates to a 5.3% annualized yield based on the $35.76 per share average closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported on NASDAQ during the first quarter of 2026.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income decreased $5.7 million to $200.7 million during the first quarter of 2026, compared to net interest income of $206.4 million during the fourth quarter of 2025. Net interest income decreased $4.3 million, or 2.1%, during the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025. The quarterly decline from the fourth quarter of 2025 was primarily driven by lower interest income due to reduced loan yields and balances, and fewer accrual days, partially offset by higher investment balances and yields and lower interest expense due to reduced deposit balances and rates. Year-over-year lower interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities were partially influenced by the reduction in loans and deposits related to the sale of the Arizona and Kansas branches during the fourth quarter of 2025, which resulted in a reduction of net interest income, in the first quarter of 2026.
Interest accretion attributable to the fair value of acquired loans, related to prior acquisitions, contributed to net interest income during the first quarter of 2026, the fourth quarter of 2025, and the first quarter of 2025, in the amounts of $3.1 million, $2.6 million, and $4.7 million, respectively.
Net interest margin ratio was 3.41% for the first quarter of 2026, compared to 3.36% during the fourth quarter of 2025, and 3.19% during the first quarter of 2025. Net FTE (fully-taxable equivalent) interest margin ratio was 3.43% for the first quarter of 2026, compared to 3.38% during the fourth quarter of 2025, and 3.22% during the first quarter of 2025. Excluding interest accretion from the fair value of acquired loans, the adjusted net FTE interest margin ratio, was 3.38%, an increase of 4 basis points from the prior quarter, primarily driven by higher yields on higher average investment security balances and lower rates on lower interest bearing deposits, partially offset by lower loan yields on lower average loan balances. Excluding interest accretion from the fair value of acquired loans, on a year-over-year basis, the adjusted net FTE interest margin ratio increased 24 basis points, primarily as a result of lower interest expense resulting from decreased other borrowed funds balances.
PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES
During the first quarter of 2026, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $6.7 million. This compares to a provision for credit losses of $7.1 million and $20.0 million during the fourth quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2025, respectively.
For the first quarter of 2026, net loan charge-offs were $2.4 million, or an annualized 0.06% of average loans outstanding, compared to net loan charge-offs of $22.1 million, or an annualized 0.56% of average loans outstanding, for the fourth quarter of 2025 and net loan charge-offs of $9.0 million, or an annualized 0.21% of average loans outstanding, for the first quarter of 2025. Net loan charge-offs in the first quarter of 2026 were composed of charge-offs of $6.5 million offset by recoveries of $4.1 million. Net loan charge-offs in the fourth quarter of 2025 were composed of charge-offs of $24.5 million, primarily related to one loan of $15.8 million, which were offset by recoveries of $2.4 million. Net loan charge-offs in the first quarter of 2025 were composed of charge-offs of $10.8 million, which were offset by recoveries of $1.8 million.
The Company’s allowance for credit losses as a percentage of period-end loans held for investment was 1.33% at March 31, 2026, compared to 1.26% at December 31, 2025 and 1.24% at March 31, 2025.

The decrease from the fourth quarter of 2025 was primarily due to the $62.7 million gain recorded in other income from the sale of the Arizona and Kansas branches during the fourth quarter of 2025.
Represents a Non-GAAP financial measure. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the corresponding table captioned “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” included below for an explanation of the manner in which this measure is calculated and a reconciliation to this measure’s most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
Payment services revenues decreased $0.6 million and $1.5 million during the first quarter of 2026 compared to the fourth quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2025, respectively. The year-over-year decrease was mainly the result of lower consumer credit card interchange during the first quarter of 2026 as compared to the first quarter of 2025, related to the outsourcing of consumer credit cards in the second quarter of 2025.

Salary and wages expense decreased $6.3 million to $68.5 million during the first quarter of 2026 compared to the fourth quarter of 2025, primarily due to lower short-term incentive accruals of $2.9 million and lower severance accruals of $2.9 million during the first quarter of 2026. Salaries and wages expense decreased $0.1 million to $68.5 million during the first quarter of 2026 compared to $68.6 million during the first quarter of 2025.
Employee benefit expenses increased $2.7 million to $21.2 million during the first quarter of 2026, compared to $18.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2025, primarily due to the seasonal reset of payroll taxes, partially offset by lower long-term incentives and medical insurance costs.

Total assets decreased $1,853.0 million from $28,279.8 million as of March 31, 2025, primarily due to a decrease in loans which was partially driven by the sale of the branches in Arizona and Kansas during the fourth quarter of 2025.

The ratio of loans held for investment to deposits was 67.3%, as of March 31, 2026, compared to 68.8% as of December 31, 2025 and 76.4% as of March 31, 2025.
Total deposits decreased $205.3 million to $21,883.0 million as of March 31, 2026, from $22,088.3 million as of December 31, 2025, primarily due to decreases in all deposit categories except for savings deposits during the first quarter. Total deposits decreased $849.8 million, or 3.7%, from $22,732.8 million as of March 31, 2025, with decreases in all deposit categories except for savings deposits during the first quarter of 2026, primarily driven by the Arizona and Kansas branch sales during the fourth quarter of 2025 which consisted of $641.6 million of deposits.

As of March 31, 2026, non-performing assets increased $24.2 million, or 17.5%, to $162.5 million, compared to $138.3 million as of December 31, 2025, primarily as a result of an increase in non-accrual loans related to a single client relationship comprised of $20.2 million in commercial and commercial real estate non-accrual loans and an increase of $3.2 million in OREO.
Criticized loans decreased $18.6 million, or 1.8%, to $1,033.2 million as of March 31, 2026, from $1,051.8 million as of December 31, 2025, primarily as a result of upgrades as well as paydowns and payoffs in the portfolio.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
In addition to results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, this press release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures that management uses to evaluate our performance relative to our capital adequacy standards: (i) tangible common stockholders’ equity; (ii) tangible assets; (iii) tangible book value per common share; (iv) tangible common stockholders’ equity to tangible assets; (v) average tangible common stockholders’ equity; (vi) return on average tangible common stockholders’ equity; (vii) net FTE interest income; (viii) net FTE interest margin ratio; (ix) adjusted net FTE interest income; and (x) adjusted net FTE interest margin ratio. Tangible common stockholders’ equity is calculated as total common stockholders’ equity less goodwill and other intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing rights). Tangible assets are calculated as total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing rights). Tangible book value per common share is calculated as tangible common stockholders’ equity divided by common shares outstanding. Tangible common stockholders’ equity to tangible assets is calculated as tangible common stockholders’ equity divided by tangible assets. Average tangible common stockholders’ equity is calculated as average total stockholders’ equity less average goodwill and other intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing rights). Return on average tangible common stockholders’ equity is calculated as annualized net income available to common shareholders divided by average tangible common stockholders’ equity. Net FTE interest income is calculated as net interest income, adjusted to include its FTE interest income. Net FTE interest margin ratio is calculated as net FTE interest income divided by average interest earning assets. Adjusted net FTE interest income is calculated as net FTE interest income less purchase accounting interest accretion on acquired loans. Adjusted net FTE interest margin ratio is calculated as annualized adjusted net FTE interest income divided by average interest earning assets. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies because other companies may not calculate these non-GAAP measures in the same manner. They also should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The Company adjusts the most directly comparable capital adequacy GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures described in subclauses (i) through (vi) above to exclude goodwill and other intangible assets (except mortgage servicing rights), adjusts its GAAP net interest income to include fully taxable equivalent adjustments and further adjusts its net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis to exclude purchase accounting interest accretion. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures, which are intended to complement the capital ratios defined by banking regulators and to present on a consistent basis our and our acquired companies’ organic continuing operations without regard to acquisition costs and other adjustments that we consider to be unpredictable and dependent on a significant number of factors that are outside our control, are useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s performance because, as a general matter, they either do not represent an actual cash expense and are inconsistent in amount and frequency depending upon the timing and size of our acquisitions (including the size, complexity and/or volume of past acquisitions, which may drive the magnitude of acquisition related costs, but may not be indicative of the size, complexity and/or volume of future acquisitions or related costs), or they cannot be anticipated or estimated in a particular period (in particular as it relates to unexpected recovery amounts). This impacts the ratios that are important to analysts and allows investors to compare certain aspects of the Company’s capitalization to other companies.
See the “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” table included herein and the textual discussion for a reconciliation of the above-described non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
