BayCom Corp (NASDAQ: BCML) lifts Q1 profit, names new leadership team

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

BayCom Corp reported strong first quarter 2026 results and announced a major leadership transition. Net income was $8.2 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, up from $6.9 million ($0.63) in the prior quarter and $5.7 million ($0.51) a year ago. Earnings benefited from a $670,000 reversal of provision for credit losses, higher noninterest income including equity securities gains and FHLB special dividends, and modest growth in net interest income.

Annualized net interest margin improved to 4.11%, with average loan yields rising and funding costs easing versus 2025. Credit quality remained manageable, though nonperforming loans increased to 0.83% of total loans, and the allowance for credit losses stood at 1.02% of total loans. Deposits grew to $2.27 billion, supporting a loan-to-deposit ratio of 88.78%.

Subsequent to quarter-end, BayCom’s board approved an executive transition, involuntarily terminating three long-tenured senior executives and appointing William J. Black Jr. as Executive Vice Chair, Christopher F. Baron as President and CEO, and Kevin L. Thompson as CFO. The company expects second-quarter charges related to severance, accelerated equity vesting, and benefit continuation.

Positive

• Strong earnings growth and profitability: Q1 2026 net income rose to $8.2 million (EPS $0.75), up 19.3% sequentially and 43.5% year over year, with ROA at 1.25% and ROE at 9.54%.

Negative

• Disruptive leadership transition with upcoming charges: the board involuntarily terminated three senior executives, including the prior CEO and CFO, and expects Q2 charges for severance, accelerated equity vesting, and benefit continuation.

Insights

Banking equity analyst

BayCom posts stronger Q1 earnings but pairs them with a sweeping leadership overhaul.

BayCom Corp delivered Q1 2026 net income of $8.2 million, up 19.3% sequentially and 43.5% year over year, with EPS at $0.75. Drivers included higher net interest income, a $670,000 credit loss provision reversal, and nonrecurring items like FHLB special dividends and elevated loan discount accretion.

Core bank metrics look solid: net interest margin rose to 4.11%, return on average assets reached 1.25%, and return on average equity was 9.54%. Asset quality is generally stable despite nonperforming loans increasing to 0.83% of total loans, while the allowance for credit losses remained at 1.02% of loans, with minimal net charge-offs.

The most structurally significant development is the post-quarter executive transition. Three senior executives, including the prior CEO and CFO, were involuntarily terminated without cause, and a new leadership team was appointed effective April 10, 2026. The company notes expected Q2 charges for severance, accelerated equity vesting, and benefit continuity. Subsequent filings may clarify the financial magnitude and strategic direction under the new team.

net interest margin financial

"Annualized net interest margin was 4.11% for the first quarter of 2026"

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.

allowance for credit losses financial

"the Company’s allowance for credit losses for loans was $20.6 million, or 1.02% of total loans"

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.

nonperforming loans financial

"Nonperforming loans, consisting of non-accrual loans and accruing loans 90 days or more past due, totaled $16.7 million"

Nonperforming loans are loans on which borrowers have stopped making the scheduled interest or principal payments for an extended period (commonly 90 days or more) or are otherwise in serious danger of default. Think of them as IOUs that aren’t being repaid: they tie up a lender’s money, reduce future interest income, and force the lender to hold extra reserves or take losses. For investors, a rising share of nonperforming loans signals weakening credit quality, higher potential losses, and greater risk to a bank’s profitability and capital.

CalCAP financial

"California Capital Access Program (CalCAP), which is designed to support small business lending"

tangible book value per share financial

"tangible book value per share (Non-GAAP) | $ | 27.82"

Tangible book value per share is the company's total physical and financial assets minus its liabilities and intangible items (like goodwill and brand value), divided by the number of outstanding shares. It gives investors a conservative, per‑share estimate of what would remain if the business sold only its hard assets and paid its debts—useful for judging whether a stock is priced above or below its underlying, tangible worth, like valuing a property by its bricks and cash rather than its reputation.

BayCom Corp Reports 2026 First Quarter Earnings of $8.2 Million

WALNUT CREEK, CA, April 23, 2026--(Business Wire) BayCom Corp (“BayCom” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BCML), the holding company for United Business Bank (the “Bank” or “UBB”), announced earnings of $8.2 million, or $0.75 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2026, compared to earnings of $6.9 million, or $0.63 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2025 and $5.7 million, or $0.51 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2025.  

Net income for the first quarter of 2026 increased $1.3 million, or 19.3%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2025. This increase was primarily the result of a $920,000 favorable change in the provision for credit losses, reflecting a net recovery of $670,000 in the current quarter compared to a $250,000 provision in the prior quarter, as well as a $660,000 increase in noninterest income and a $191,000 increase in net interest income. These changes were partially offset by a $340,000 increase in noninterest expense, primarily due to higher salaries and employee benefits, and a $109,000 increase in the provision for income taxes. Compared to the first quarter of 2025, net income increased $2.5 million, or 43.5%, primarily as a result of a $2.3 million increase in net interest income and a $1.3 million favorable change in the provision for credit losses, reflecting a net recovery in the current quarter compared to a $642,000 provision in the prior-year quarter, as well as a $105,000 increase in noninterest income. These changes were partially offset by a $517,000 increase in noninterest expense and a $738,000 increase in the provision for income taxes.

William Black, Executive Vice Chairman, commented, “I am excited to join BayCom and United Business Bank alongside my colleagues Chris Baron, the Company’s new President & Chief Executive Officer, and Kevin Thompson, the Company’s new Chief Financial Officer.  I want to thank the departing executives, who worked tirelessly over the past 22 years to create a well-respected institution with a strong foundation for future growth – a clean balance sheet, a strong deposit franchise, and a disciplined credit culture.”

​

Christopher Baron, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “I am excited to be working with the United Business Bank team, and I am grateful for the warm welcome and their continued commitment to the Bank’s clients and communities.  Our focus is on building a strong growth engine, enhancing our valuation, and pursuing larger, more transformational opportunities to complete our Western Region footprint.

​

For the first quarter of 2026, financial metrics show continued improvement, with growing net interest income and stable credit quality.  There were a number of unusual items in the quarter, including additional accretion income, an FHLB special dividend, a reversal of provision for credit losses, and other minor items, which collectively increased earnings by approximately $0.12 per share. Though loan demand was challenging during the quarter due to economic uncertainty, we are already seeing a stronger loan pipeline in April, and we are optimistic that this momentum will build through the remainder of the year.” 

​

Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company announced an executive leadership transition; additional details are provided below.

Earnings

Net interest income increased $191,000, or 0.8%, to $25.2 million for the first quarter of 2026 from $25.0 million for the prior quarter, and increased $2.3 million, or 10.1%, from $22.9 million for the same quarter a year ago. The increase from the prior quarter was primarily driven by increases in fed funds sold and interest-bearing balances in banks and FHLB dividends, and a decrease in interest expense on deposits. These changes were partially offset by decreases in interest income on loans, including fees, and interest income on investment securities, and an increase in interest expense on junior subordinated debentures.  

The increase in net interest income compared to the same quarter in 2025 primarily reflects increases in interest income on loans, including fees, and FHLB dividends, and a decrease in interest expense on subordinated debt. These changes were partially offset by decreases in interest income on fed funds sold and interest-bearing balances in banks and on investment securities. Average interest-earning assets increased $19.3 million, or 0.8%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2025, and $59.9 million, or 2.3%, compared to the first quarter of 2025.

The average yield earned (annualized) on interest earning assets for the first quarter of 2026 was 5.64%, up from 5.53% for the fourth quarter of 2025 and 5.46% for the first quarter of 2025. The increase from the prior quarter reflects higher average yields on loans, partially offset by a lower average yield on investments and federal funds sold and interest-bearing balances in banks. The increase from the first quarter of 2025 reflects the origination of new loans at higher rates, and a special additional dividend received from the FHLB, partially offset by a lower average yield on interest-bearing balances in banks.

The average rate paid (annualized) on interest-bearing liabilities increased to 2.29% for the first quarter of 2026, up from 2.28% for the prior quarter and down from 2.49% for the first quarter of 2025. The slight increase over the prior quarter was primarily due to the acceleration of deferred debt issuance cost amortization associated with the early redemption of a junior subordinated debenture during the first quarter of 2026, partially offset by slightly lower deposit rates, reflecting

2

the repricing of maturing time deposits at lower prevailing market rates as short-term interest rates stabilized during the quarter. The decrease in funding costs from the first quarter of 2025 was due to the payoff of the subordinated debt and lower rates paid on premium money market and time deposits, reflecting similar market-driven repricing conditions.

Interest income on loans, including fees, decreased $225,000, or 0.8%, to $29.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from $29.8 million for the prior quarter, primarily due to an $18.6 million decrease in the average balance of loans, partially offset by a 13 basis point increase in the average loan yield. Interest income on loans, including fees, increased $2.4 million, or 8.9%, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from $27.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily due to an $89.2 million increase in the average balance of loans and a 23 basis point increase in the average loan yield. The average balance of loans was $2.0 billion for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $2.0 billion and $2.1 billion for the fourth quarter of 2025 and first quarter of 2025, respectively. The average yield on loans was 5.87% for the first quarter of 2026, compared to 5.74% for the fourth quarter of 2025 and 5.64% for the first quarter of 2025.

Interest income on loans also included $600,000 in accretion of the net discount on acquired loans for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $58,000 and $215,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively. During the current quarter, one $4.0 million acquired commercial real estate loan paid off, resulting in $555,000 of discount accretion. Accretion of the net discount positively impacted the average loan yield by 11 basis points during the current quarter, compared to minimal impact during the fourth quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2025. The balance of net premiums on these acquired loans totaled $649,000, $87,000, and $223,000 at March 31, 2026, December 31, 2025, and March 31, 2025, respectively. Interest income also included $17,000 of fees related to prepayment penalties for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $209,000 and $162,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively.

Interest income on investment securities decreased $111,000, or 4.9%, to $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $2.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and decreased $322,000, or 13.1%, from $2.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The average yield on investment securities decreased two basis points to 4.59% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to 4.61% for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and decreased 14 basis points from 4.73% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease from the prior quarter and same quarter a year ago was due to paydowns and calls on higher variable-rate securities and rate resets on variable rate securities. The average balance of investment securities totaled $188.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $193.1 million and $210.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively. In addition, the Company received $709,000 in cash dividends on its FRB and FHLB stock for the three months ended March 31, 2026, including $330,000 in special dividends from the FHLB, compared to $386,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and $393,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Interest income on federal funds sold and interest-bearing balances in banks increased $223,000, or 11.7%, to $2.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $1.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, as a result of a $43.5 million increase in the average balance, partially offset by a 28 basis point decrease in average yield. Interest income decreased $513,000, or 19.4%, from $2.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, due to decreases in both the average yield and average balance. The average yield on federal funds sold and interest-bearing balances in banks decreased 28 basis points to 3.70% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to 3.98% for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and decreased 77 basis points from 4.47% for the three months ended March 31, 2025, reflecting decreases in Federal Reserve policy rates. The average balance of federal funds sold and interest-bearing balances in banks totaled $234.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $190.8 million and $240.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively.

Interest expense increased $19,000, or 0.2%, to $9.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $9.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and decreased $412,000, or 4.2%, compared to $9.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in interest expense compared to the prior quarter primarily reflects the Company’s redemption of one junior subordinated debenture in the current quarter, which included $222,000 of accelerated amortized debt issuance costs. The decrease in interest expense compared to the same quarter of 2025 was primarily due to the Company’s redemption of all outstanding subordinated debt, resulting in lower interest expense. The

3

average cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the first quarter of 2026 was 2.29%, up from 2.28% for the fourth quarter of 2025 and down from 2.49% for first quarter of 2025.

Interest expense on deposits decreased $186,000, or 2.0%, to $9.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $9.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and increased $281,000, or 3.2% compared to $8.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease from the prior quarter was due to lower rates paid on money market and time deposits. Compared to the same quarter last year, the decrease also reflects lower rates on money market and time deposits, partially offset by a shift in deposit mix from noninterest-bearing to higher-cost accounts. The average cost of deposits (including noninterest-bearing deposits) for the three months ended March 31, 2026 was 1.63%, down from 1.64% for the three months ended December 31, 2025 and 1.66% for the three months ended March 31, 2025. The average balance of deposits totaled $2.2 billion for the first quarter of 2026, consistent with the fourth quarter of 2025, and $2.1 billion for the first quarter of 2025. The average balance of noninterest-bearing deposits decreased $19.2 million, or 3.2%, to $586.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $605.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and decreased $17.2 million, or 2.9%, compared to $603.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Annualized net interest margin was 4.11% for the first quarter of 2026, compared to 4.03% for the fourth quarter of 2025 and 3.83% for the first quarter of 2025.

The average yield on interest-earning assets for the first quarter of 2026 increased 11 basis points and 18 basis points from the prior quarter and the first quarter of 2025, respectively. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities decreased one basis point and 20 basis points from the prior quarter and the first quarter of 2025, respectively. The increase in net interest margin from the prior quarter and the same quarter a year ago reflects higher average yields on loans, the impact of discount accretion on acquired loans, a special dividend from the FHLB, and lower average costs of interest-bearing liabilities, partially offset by the redemption of subordinated debt. For the first quarter of 2026, the average yield on loans increased to 5.87%, contributing to the year-over-year improvement in asset yields.

The Company recorded a $670,000 reversal of provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2026, compared to provisions of $250,000 and $642,000 for the fourth quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2025, respectively. The reversal of provision in the current quarter was mainly driven by a decrease in total loans outstanding and, to a lesser extent, decreasing quantitative loss rates due to favorable changes in forecasted economic conditions.

Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2026 increased $660,000, or 74.6%, to $1.5 million compared to $885,000 for the prior quarter of 2025, and increased $105,000, or 7.3%, compared to $1.4 million for the first quarter of 2025. The increase in noninterest income compared to the prior quarter of 2025 was primarily due to an $811,000 swing in equity securities, which went from a loss of $753,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2025, to a gain of $58,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2026, reflecting positive fair value adjustments due to strong market conditions, and a $116,000 increase in gain on sale of loans. These increases were partially offset by decreases of $130,000 in loan servicing fees and other fees due to decrease in loan activity and late charges, $112,000 in service charges and other fees, and $13,000 in other income and loan fees. The increase in noninterest income compared to the same quarter of 2025 was primarily due to a $313,000 swing in equity securities, which went from a loss of $255,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, a $194,000 increase in gain on a Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”) fund investment, partially offset by a $204,000 decrease in service charges and other fees due to lower customer deposits placed in Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service (“CDARS”) and Insured Cash Sweep (“ICS”) money market product services via the IntraFi Network, a $102,000 decrease in loan servicing fees and other fees primarily due to decrease in late charges, and a $75,000 decrease in gain on sale of loans.

Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2026 increased $340,000, or 2.1%, to $16.5 million, compared to $16.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, and increased $517,000, or 3.2%, compared to $16.0 million for the first quarter of 2025. The increase from the prior quarter primarily reflects a $457,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits due to an adjustment to higher incentive expense at payout and an increase in base wages. This increase was partially offset by a $90,000 decrease in other expense, which was due in part to a $50,000 increase in the amount of excess funds returned to the Bank from a loss reserve account previously established under the California Capital Access Program (CalCAP), which is designed to support small business lending by requiring contributions to a reserve fund that covers potential loan losses.

These funds were no longer needed due to strong loan performance and were returned to the Bank. Compared to the first quarter of 2025, the increase in noninterest expense was primarily due to a $914,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits, resulting from higher incentive expense, increased base wages, higher employee insurance claims, and lower deferred salary costs due to lower loan originations, as well as a $185,000 increase in data processing expense due to newly implemented services in 2025 and higher vendor data processing charges. These increases were partially offset by a $573,000 decrease in other expense, primarily due to $450,000 of excess funds being returned to the Bank in the first quarter of 2026 from the CalCAP loss reserve account, whereas no unused CalCAP funds were returned in the first quarter of 2025, as well as lower legal and professional service costs and reduced deposit premium amortization.

The provision for income taxes increased $109,000, or 4.2%, to $2.7 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $2.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 and increased $738,000, or 37.1%, from $2.0 million for the first quarter of 2025. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2026 was 25.0%, compared to 27.6% for the prior quarter of 2025 and 25.8% for the first quarter of 2025. The decrease in the effective tax rate from the prior quarter and the same quarter a year ago primarily reflects true-up adjustments for state apportionment and other year-end adjustments.

Loans and Credit Quality

Loans, net of deferred fees, totaled $2.0 billion at March 31, 2026, compared to $2.1 billion at December 31, 2025 and $2.0 billion at March 31, 2025. Loans decreased $55.1 million from December 31, 2025, and increased $44.6 million from March 31, 2025. The decrease in loans from December 31, 2025 was primarily due to $90.5 million of loan repayments, partially offset by $34.7 million of new loan originations and $3.2 million of loan purchases. During the current quarter, the Company sold loans totaling $2.4 million, of which $919,000 were nonperforming assets.

Nonperforming loans, consisting of non-accrual loans and accruing loans 90 days or more past due, totaled $16.7 million, or 0.83% of total loans, at March 31, 2026, compared to $13.4 million, or 0.65% of total loans, at December 31, 2025, and $9.8 million, or 0.51% of total loans, at March 31, 2025. The increase from the prior quarter-end was primarily due to one $4.9 million commercial real estate loan being placed on non-accrual during the current quarter, partially offset by payoffs of five non-accrual loans totaling $1.6 million. The majority of nonperforming loans remain concentrated in the commercial real estate portfolio, while consumer and other commercial loans continue to exhibit low levels of delinquencies.

The portion of nonaccrual loans guaranteed by government agencies totaled $932,000 at March 31, 2026, compared to $1.7 million at December 31, 2025, and $618,000 at March 31, 2025, with the decrease from the prior quarter-end being due to pay-off of one government guaranteed loan. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were no loans 90 days or more past due that were still accruing and in the process of collection, compared to one such loan totaling $150,000 at March 31, 2025. Accruing loans past due 30-89 days totaled $2.3 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $1.1 million at December 31, 2025, and $10.8 million at March 31, 2025. The $1.2 million increase in accruing loans past due 30-89 days at March 31, 2026, as compared to December 31, 2025, was primarily due to two SBA commercial real estate loans totaling $1.4 million and 15 CalCAP truck loans totaling $565,000, partially offset by paydowns and loans returning to accrual status.

At March 31, 2026, the Company’s allowance for credit losses for loans was $20.6 million, or 1.02% of total loans, compared to $21.2 million, or 1.03% of total loans, at December 31, 2025 and $18.5 million, or 0.94% of total loans, at March 31, 2025. We recorded $14,000 in net charge-offs for the first quarter of 2026, compared to no net charge-offs in the prior quarter, and $102,000 net charge-offs in the first quarter of 2025. The decrease in the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2026, compared to December 31, 2025, was primarily attributable to a decrease in the reserve for pooled loans due to lower loan balances, partially offset by changes in macroeconomic forecasts, including lower forecasted unemployment and an improved national gross domestic product outlook. In addition, there was an $81,000 decrease in the reserve for individually evaluated loans as compared to the prior quarter. Qualitative risk factor classifications remained unchanged during the quarter.

At March 31, 2026, acquired loans, net of discounts and premiums, totaled $108.4 million, with a remaining net premium of $649,000, compared to $123.6 million and $87,000 at December 31, 2025, and $152.4 million and $223,000 at March

5

31, 2025, respectively. The decrease in acquired loans, net of discounts and premiums, from December 31, 2025 was primarily due to $585,000 of discount accretion resulting from the payoff of one acquired commercial real estate loan.

Deposits and Borrowings

Deposits increased $51.8 million, or 2.3%, to $2.3 billion at March 31, 2026, compared to $2.2 billion at December 31, 2025, and increased $136.6 million, or 6.4%, compared to $2.1 billion at March 31, 2025. Noninterest-bearing deposits totaled $609.2 million, or 26.9% of total deposits, at March 31, 2026, compared to $578.1 million, or 26.1%, at December 31, 2025, and $589.5 million, or 27.7%, at March 31, 2025.

We consider our deposit base to be seasoned, stable and well-diversified, and we do not have any significant industry concentrations among our non-insured deposits. We also offer an insured cash sweep (ICS) product that allows customers to insure deposits above FDIC insurance limits. At both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our average deposit account size (excluding public funds), calculated by dividing period-end deposits by the population of accounts with balances, was approximately $63,000.

The Bank has an approved secured borrowing facility with the FHLB of San Francisco for up to 25% of total assets for a term not to exceed five years under a blanket lien of certain types of loans, with no FHLB advances outstanding at March 31, 2026, December 31, 2025 or March 31, 2025. The Bank also has Federal Funds lines with four correspondent banks, with an aggregate available commitment of $65.0 million at March 31, 2026. The Bank has approved discount window advances with the FRB of San Francisco secured by certain loan types. The Bank had no outstanding FHLB advances, Federal Reserve discount window borrowings, or other borrowings at March 31, 2026, December 31, 2025, or March 31, 2025.

At March 31, 2026, outstanding junior subordinated debentures totaled $5.9 million, compared to $8.7 million at December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025. The decrease reflects the redemption of one debenture during the first quarter of 2026. The Company had no subordinated debt outstanding at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, compared to $63.8 million at March 31, 2025, due to redemption during 2025.

Shareholders’ Equity

Shareholders’ equity totaled $344.0 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $338.6 million at December 31, 2025, and $329.3 million at March 31, 2025. The increase from December 31, 2025 was primarily the result of net income of $8.2 million and $340,000 of other comprehensive income, net of taxes, related mainly to changes in unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities. These increases were partially offset by $3.3 million of accrued cash dividends. At March 31, 2026, a total of 202,444 shares remained available for repurchase under the Company’s current stock repurchase program.

The increase in shareholders’ equity during the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily was due to a $2.5 million increase in net income and a $1.2 million decrease in other comprehensive income, net of taxes, during the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Management Transition

Subsequent to quarter-end, the Company announced an executive leadership transition to support the Company’s next phase of growth, including the appointment of William J. Black, Jr. as Executive Vice Chair, Christopher F. Baron as President and Chief Executive Officer, and Kevin L. Thompson as EVP, Chief Financial Officer and Corporate Secretary. On April 7, 2026, the Board of Directors approved the involuntary termination without cause of three senior executive officers: George J. Guarini (President and Chief Executive Officer), Janet L. King (Sr. EVP and Chief Operating Officer), and Keary L. Colwell (Sr. EVP, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Administrative Officer and Corporate Secretary). In connection with these actions, the Company expects to recognize charges in the second quarter of 2026 related to cash severance, equity award vesting acceleration, and continuation of benefits for the departing executives. Each departing executive’ change in role was effective April 10, 2026, with a separation date of July 6, 2026, during which time they will continue as non-executive employees providing transition assistance.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles utilized in the United States (“GAAP”), this earnings release contains tangible book value per share and tangible equity to tangible assets, both of which are non-GAAP financial measures. Tangible book value per share is calculated by dividing tangible common shareholders’ equity by the number of common shares outstanding at the end of the period. Tangible equity and tangible common shareholders’ equity exclude intangible assets from shareholders’ equity, and tangible assets exclude intangible assets from total assets. For these financial measures, the Company’s intangible assets are goodwill and core deposit intangibles. The Company believes that these measures are consistent with the capital treatment by our bank regulatory agencies, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios, and presents these measures to facilitate comparison of the quality and composition of the Company’s capital over time in comparison to its peers. Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations and are not required to be uniformly applied. Further, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Reconciliation of the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures is presented below:

FAQ

How did BayCom Corp (BCML) perform financially in Q1 2026?

BayCom generated net income of $8.2 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, in Q1 2026. Earnings improved from $6.9 million in Q4 2025 and $5.7 million in Q1 2025, supported by higher net interest income and a reversal of credit loss provisions.

What drove BayCom’s earnings increase compared to Q4 2025 and Q1 2025?

Earnings rose mainly due to a $670,000 reversal of provision for credit losses, higher noninterest income, and modestly higher net interest income. Year over year, net interest income grew by $2.3 million and credit provisions improved by $1.3 million, partially offset by higher expenses and taxes.

How are BayCom’s net interest margin and asset yields trending?

Net interest margin improved to 4.11% in Q1 2026, up from 4.03% in Q4 2025 and 3.83% in Q1 2025. The yield on interest-earning assets rose to 5.64%, helped by higher loan yields, special FHLB dividends, and accretion on acquired loans, while funding costs edged lower versus 2025.

What is the current status of BayCom’s credit quality and reserves?

Nonperforming loans were $16.7 million, or 0.83% of total loans, at March 31, 2026, up from 0.65% in December 2025. The allowance for credit losses on loans was $20.6 million, equal to 1.02% of total loans, with minimal net charge-offs in the quarter.

What leadership changes did BayCom Corp announce after Q1 2026?

The board appointed William J. Black Jr. as Executive Vice Chair, Christopher F. Baron as President and CEO, and Kevin L. Thompson as EVP and CFO. Three senior executives, including the previous CEO and CFO, were involuntarily terminated without cause, with expected Q2 transition-related charges.

How are BayCom’s deposits and capital levels positioned?

Total deposits reached $2.27 billion at March 31, 2026, up 6.4% from a year earlier, with noninterest-bearing deposits at 26.9% of the total. Shareholders’ equity was $344.0 million, and the bank reported strong regulatory capital ratios, including a 14.54% common equity tier 1 ratio.
