Amalgamated Financial Corp. Reports Second Quarter 2026 Financial Results; Record Profitability | Margin Rises to 3.78% | Guidance Raised

Key Terms

net interest margin financial

Net interest margin measures how much a bank earns from lending and investing compared with what it pays for funding, expressed as a percentage of its interest-earning assets. Think of it like a grocery store’s markup: it shows the gap between buying cost and selling price per dollar of goods — here, the cost is interest paid and the sale is interest received. Investors watch it because a higher margin usually means a bank is more profitable and better at managing interest rate and credit conditions.

nonaccrual status financial

Nonaccrual status is when a lender stops recording interest income on a loan because payments are late or the borrower’s ability to pay is in serious doubt. For investors this is a red flag: it signals deteriorating loan quality, can reduce reported earnings and may require the lender to set aside more reserves, much like marking a damaged product off the books until its value is clear.

common equity tier 1 capital ratio regulatory

A bank’s common equity tier 1 (CET1) capital ratio measures the size of its strongest loss-absorbing capital—mainly common shares and retained earnings—relative to the bank’s assets after adjusting those assets for how risky they are (riskier loans count more). Think of it as the safety cushion compared with the weight of risky business; investors use it to judge a bank’s ability to survive losses, meet rules, and sustain dividends or growth.

allowance for credit losses financial

Allowance for credit losses is a reserve set aside by a financial institution to cover potential losses from borrowers who may not repay their loans. It acts like a safety net, helping the institution prepare for loans that might turn sour. For investors, it signals how cautious the institution is about the quality of its loans and potential risks to its financial health.

non-gaap financial measures financial

Non-GAAP financial measures are numbers companies use to show their financial performance that exclude certain expenses or income. They help investors see how the company might perform without one-time costs or other unusual items, giving a different perspective from official reports. However, since they can be adjusted, they don’t always tell the full story and should be looked at alongside standard financial figures.

Second Quarter Earnings

Net income was $34.8 million, or $1.15 per diluted share, compared to $25.2 million, or $0.84 per diluted share, for the prior quarter. The $9.6 million increase during the quarter was primarily driven by $9.1 million lower provision for credit losses, and a $5.9 million increase in net interest income. This was partially offset by a $1.4 million increase in non-interest expense, as well as a $1.0 million decrease in non-interest income, which includes a $0.6 million decrease in ICS One-Way Sell fee income from off-balance sheet deposits. There was also a $3.0 million increase in income tax expense.

Core net income¹ was $33.1 million, or $1.10 per diluted share, compared to $24.1 million, or $0.80 per diluted share for the prior quarter. The table below shows a pre-tax gain of $2.3 million related to non-core income items, $0.1 million of non-core pre-tax expense items, and $0.6 million in tax on notable items were excluded in the calculation of core net income in the second quarter of 2026. For additional details on each component item within the non-core income and expense figures listed below, please see the GAAP to Non-GAAP reconciliation included at the end of this document.

(in thousands)	As of and for the Three Months Ended
Core net income	June 30, 2026				March 31, 2026				QoQ Change
Net Income (GAAP)	$	34,766			$	25,223			$	9,543
Add: Non-core (income)/losses		(2,264	)			(2,086	)			(178	)
Add: Non-core expense		80				622				(541	)
Add: Tax benefit (expense) on notable items		555				380				175
Core net income (non-GAAP)	$	33,137			$	24,139			$	8,999

Net interest income was $86.1 million, compared to $80.2 million for the prior quarter. Interest earning asset yields rose 3 basis points to 5.14%. Loan interest income increased $2.5 million and loan yields increased 3 basis points as average loan balances increased $109.4 million, reflecting repricing upside from commercial loan origination. Similarly, interest income on securities increased $5.2 million and securities yields increased 2 basis points as capital was allocated to PACE origination and AFS securities purchases in the quarter. Conversely, expense on total interest-bearing deposits increased $1.9 million as more deposits were brought back on-balance sheet in the quarter, resulting in the average balance of total interest-bearing deposits increasing by $320.7 million.

Net interest margin was 3.78%, an increase of 3 basis points from 3.75% in the prior quarter. The increase was primarily due to interest income generated from the origination of higher-yielding commercial loans and newly purchased AFS securities. In addition, interest income recaptured from the payoff of a nonaccrual construction loan and one-time commercial prepayment fees largely offset income lost from loans moved to nonaccrual status in the prior quarter. Income from prepayment penalties had a 3 basis point impact on net interest margin in the current quarter, compared to a non-material impact in the prior quarter. Total cost of deposits remained flat.

Provision for credit losses was an expense of $4.4 million, compared to an expense of $13.5 million in the prior quarter. The decrease of $9.1 million was primarily driven by $9.2 million of specific reserves established in the prior quarter on $78.0 million of multifamily loans to a single-borrower after the borrower indicated an expected default. Management continues to evaluate resolution alternatives on these loans, including foreclosure, note sales, or other exit strategies. During the current quarter, reserves on three of these loans that have been on nonaccrual status since the fourth quarter of 2025 were increased by a combined $1.1 million as the loans move closer to resolution. Offsetting this increase in reserves was a release of $1.5 million on a nonaccrual construction loan that was paid off during the quarter. The remaining provision expense in the second quarter was primarily driven by expected consumer charge-offs and additional required reserves from the ACL model calculation.

Non-interest income was $12.3 million, compared to $13.3 million in the prior quarter. Excluding all non-core income items noted above, core non-interest income¹ was $10.0 million, compared to $11.2 million in the prior quarter. The decrease was primarily related to lower core solar tax equity income due to exiting a solar tax investment in the previous quarter, as well as a discrete benefit from BOLI policies in the prior quarter.

Non-interest expense was $47.3 million, an increase of $1.4 million from the prior quarter. Excluding all non-core expense items noted above, core non-interest expense¹ was $47.2 million, an increase of $2.0 million from the prior quarter. This was mainly driven by $2.0 million of higher compensation and employee benefit costs consisting of accruals related to increased performance, as well as for the additional payroll period in 2026. In addition, there was an expected $0.8 million increase in technology costs related to implementation of key modernization projects. This was offset by a $0.6 million decrease in occupancy expense, and a $0.7 million decrease in professional fees.

Provision for income tax expense was $11.9 million, compared to $8.8 million for the prior quarter. The effective tax rate was 25.4%, compared to 26.0% in the prior quarter. The decrease was primarily the result of the recognition of a $0.5 million tax credit purchased in the quarter. Excluding the purchased tax credit and other discrete tax items, the current quarter tax rate would have been 26.4%. The tax credits are included in the annualized effective tax rate.

Balance Sheet Quarterly Summary

Total assets expanded to $9.4 billion at June 30, 2026, a $240.6 million, or 3% increase and total average assets were $9.3 billion. Notable changes within individual balance sheet line items include a $81.2 million increase in traditional securities and a $114.9 million increase in net loans receivable, primarily funded by more deposits held on-balance sheet. For liabilities, on-balance sheet deposits increased by $280.3 million and average total deposits increased by $460.7 million, reflecting growth across the labor, social/philanthropy, and political segments. Off-balance sheet deposits decreased by $96.8 million in the quarter. Equity grew by $27.4 million.

Total net loans receivable at June 30, 2026 were $5.1 billion, an increase of $114.9 million, or 2.3% for the quarter. The loan balance increase was primarily driven by an $85.1 million increase in multifamily loans, a $56.2 million increase in commercial real estate loans, and a $13.2 million increase in commercial and industrial loans. Portfolios in non-growth mode included a $11.5 million decrease in consumer solar loans, and a $26.5 million decrease in residential loans.

Total on-balance sheet deposits at June 30, 2026 were $8.5 billion, an increase of $280.3 million, or 3.4%, during the quarter. Including accounts held off-balance sheet, deposits held by politically active customers, such as campaigns, PACs, advocacy-based organizations, and state and national party committees were $2.1 billion, an increase of $211.9 million during the quarter. Non-interest-bearing deposits represented 40% of average total deposits and 39% of ending total deposits for the quarter, contributing to an average cost of total deposits of 146 basis points. Super-core deposits¹ totaled approximately $5.1 billion, and had a weighted average life of 17 years. Total uninsured deposits were $4.8 billion, comprising 57% of on-balance sheet deposits.

Nonperforming assets totaled $102.7 million, or 1.09% of period-end total assets at June 30, 2026, an increase of $3.8 million, compared with $98.9 million, or 1.08% of period-end total assets on a linked quarter basis. The increase in nonperforming assets was driven by one $5.3 million New York multifamily loan that was placed on nonaccrual status this quarter. In addition, two small business loans totaling $0.1 million were also placed on nonaccrual status. This was partially offset by the payoff of a $2.3 million legacy non-performing construction loan.

During the quarter, criticized or classified loans decreased $9.0 million, largely driven by the upgrade of one $9.1 million commercial and industrial loan. Also, there were payoffs of one $3.3 million commercial real estate loan, one $2.3 million construction loan mentioned above, and two small business loans totaling $0.4 million. Lastly, two additional small business loans totaling $0.2 million were charged off during the quarter. This was partially offset by downgrades on one $6.2 million multifamily loan, and nine small business loans totaling $0.7 million.

During the quarter, the allowance for credit losses on loans increased $0.7 million to $68.9 million. The ratio of allowance to total loans was 1.34%, a decrease of 1 basis point from 1.35% in the first quarter of 2026.

Capital Quarterly Summary

As of June 30, 2026, the Common Equity Tier 1 Capital ratio was 14.20%, the Total Risk-Based Capital ratio was 16.43%, and the Tier 1 Leverage Capital ratio was 9.20%. Stockholders’ equity was $835.0 million, an increase of $27.4 million during the quarter. The increase in stockholders’ equity was primarily driven by $34.8 million of net income for the quarter, offset by an increase of $4.2 million in accumulated other comprehensive loss due to the tax-effected mark-to-market adjustment on available for sale securities resulting from increases in long-term rates during the quarter, and $5.2 million in dividends paid at $0.17 per outstanding share.

Tangible book value per share¹ increased 3.3% to $27.47. Tangible common equity¹ increased slightly to 8.74% of tangible assets due to higher quarterly earnings, offset by an increase in average balance sheet size.

Management utilizes this information to compare operating performance for June 30, 2026, versus certain periods in 2026 and 2025 and to prepare internal projections. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate making period-to-period comparisons and are meaningful indications of operating performance.

The presentation of non-GAAP financial information, however, is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP financial measures. We strongly encourage readers to review the GAAP financial measures included in this release and not to place undue reliance upon any single financial measure.
