Efficiency ratio 49.68% Q1 2026 efficiency ratio vs 52.94% in Q1 2025
core earnings financial
"Q1 2026 core earnings*1 were $69.4 million, or $1.97 per diluted share"
Core earnings are the profit a business generates from its normal, ongoing operations after removing one-time gains or losses and unusual accounting adjustments; think of it as the recurring paycheck a household can expect each month rather than a one-off inheritance or sale. Investors care because it highlights the company’s sustainable cash-making ability and makes performance easier to compare across periods and with other firms.
tangible book value per common share financial
"tangible book value per common share* increased to $63.54 from $61.77"
A per-share measure of the company’s tangible net asset value available to common shareholders after removing intangible items (like goodwill, brand value, and patents) and any preferred shareholder claims. Think of it as the amount each common share would get if the company sold only its physical and financial assets and settled priority claims. Investors use it as a conservative baseline to judge whether a stock is cheaply priced relative to the company’s hard-asset backing.
net interest margin financial
"Net interest margin, tax equivalent | 3.22 % | | 3.40 %"
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.
non-performing loans financial
"nonperforming loans totaled approximately $36 million, representing 0.21% of total loans and leases"
Loans on a bank’s books where the borrower has stopped making scheduled payments for a prolonged period (commonly about 90 days), so the lender no longer expects full repayment on time. Think of them as overdue IOUs that may never be paid back; a rising level of such loans weakens a lender’s earnings and balance sheet, signals greater credit risk in the economy, and can hurt investors through lower dividends, loan losses, or declines in the lender’s stock value.
Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio financial
"Common equity Tier 1 capital ratio (2) | 12.8 %"
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.
efficiency ratio financial
"Q1 2026 efficiency ratio was 49.68% compared to Q1 2025 efficiency ratio of 52.94%"
A measure of how much a company spends to produce each dollar of revenue, usually shown as operating expenses divided by revenue and expressed as a percentage. Think of it as a household’s budget: a lower percentage means more of each dollar earned stays as profit, while a higher number means costs are eating into returns. Investors use it to judge cost control and compare how efficiently companies turn revenue into earnings, especially in banks and financial firms.
Net income to common shareholders $69.7M up from $9.5M in Q1 2025
Diluted EPS $1.97 up from $0.29 in Q1 2025
Net interest income $191.4M increase of $23.9M vs Q1 2025
Total loans and leases $17.4B up $2.3B, or about 15% year-over-year
Total deposits $21.6B up $2.7B, or 14.0% year-over-year
Efficiency ratio 49.68% improved from 52.94% in Q1 2025

CEO Commentary
West Reading, Pa, April 23, 2026 - “On January 1, 2026, I had the honor of succeeding Jay Sidhu as Chief Executive Officer of Customers Bancorp. This transition was the culmination of a deliberate, multiyear transition that our Board and leadership team planned carefully to ensure continuity for our clients, our team members and our shareholders,” said Customers Bancorp CEO Sam Sidhu.
“I am pleased to share our first quarter 2026 results that show the company’s continued execution of its strategic priorities and underscore our success in growing franchise value.”
“We got off to a strong start to the year in what is typically a slower quarter, as we continued to strategically grow our loan and deposit portfolios with momentum throughout the organization. Total loans and leases grew by 3.6% in Q1 2026 compared to Q4 2025, with contributions from multiple verticals allowing us to deliver above industry average growth rates without sacrificing on structure or credit quality.
Total deposits increased by 3.9% in Q1 2026 compared to Q4 2025, and we delivered over $230.0 million of non interest bearing deposit growth in Q1 2026 outside of the benefits of our digital asset channel clients. On a net basis, we had an increase of 1,167 commercial accounts, or a 5.0% increase in a single quarter, and the 2025 teams alone added 625 accounts in the quarter.
Our Q1 2026 GAAP earnings were $69.7 million, or $1.97 per diluted share, and core earnings* were $69.4 million, or $1.97 per diluted share. Asset quality remains strong with our NPA ratio at just 0.29% of total assets and reserve levels are robust at 337% of total non-performing loans at the end of Q1 2026. Our TCE / TA ratio* increased by 60 basis points from March 31, 2025 to 8.3% at March 31, 2026, while our balance sheet grew by 4.0% and we repurchased 621,668 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $68.04 in the quarter.
In Q1 2026, we once again delivered exceptionally strong growth across key metrics of revenue, core earnings, and book value per share of 58%, 28%*, and 16%, respectively, when compared to Q1 2025” Sam Sidhu concluded.

Credit Quality
The provision for credit losses in Q1 2026 was $23 million, compared to $22 million in Q4 2025 and $28 million in Q1 2025.
Net charge-offs were $13 million in Q1 2026, compared to $14 million in Q4 2025 and $17 million Q1 2025.
The allowance for credit losses on loans and leases was $161 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $156 million at December 31, 2025 and $141 million at March 31, 2025.

Nonperforming loans include the guaranteed portion of SBA loans. As of March 31, 2026, nonperforming loans totaled $48 million, of which approximately $12 million represents the government-guaranteed portion. Excluding the government-guaranteed portion, nonperforming loans totaled approximately $36 million, representing 0.21% of total loans and leases.
Key Profitability Trends
Net Interest Income
Net interest income totaled $191.4 million in Q1 2026, a decrease of $13.1 million from Q4 2025. This decrease was driven by a decrease in interest income mainly from C&I loans and interest-earning deposits, partially offset by a decrease in interest expense primarily due to lower market interest rates.
“Net interest income and net interest margin were impacted as expected by the sunsetting of the discount accretion that benefitted Q3 and Q4 2025 as well as a lower day count in the quarter,” stated Customers Bancorp CFO Mark McCollom. “We continue to have positive drivers to net interest income on both sides of the balance sheet. We have a strong loan pipeline and the flywheel from our primarily deposit-focused commercial banking team recruitment strategy continued to gain momentum and our recruitment pipeline remains strong,” said Mark McCollom.
Net interest income totaled $191.4 million in Q1 2026, an increase of $23.9 million from Q1 2025. This increase was primarily due to higher interest income primarily due to higher average loan balances and lower interest expense from a favorable shift in deposit mix and lower market interest rates.
Non-Interest Income
Reported non-interest income totaled $34.3 million for Q1 2026, an increase of $1.8 million compared to $32.5 million for Q4 2025. The increase was primarily due to increases of $3.1 million in loan fees mainly from gains on certain stock warrants, $1.2 million in commercial lease income, $1.1 million in net gain on sale of loans and leases mainly from the sale of SBA loans and $0.9 million in bank-owned life insurance due to higher death benefits. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $4.9 million in other non-interest income mainly due to a decrease in gain on sale of leased assets and loss on equity investments.
4


Non-interest income totaled $34.3 million for Q1 2026, an increase of $58.8 million compared to Q1 2025. The increase was primarily due to $51.3 million of impairment loss on certain AFS debt securities that the Bank decided to sell as of March 31, 2025 and increases in commercial lease income of $4.8 million, $3.3 million in loan fees mainly from gains on certain stock warrants and $1.0 million in net gain on sale of loans and leases mainly from the sale of SBA loans, partially offset by a decrease of $1.6 million in bank-owned life insurance income mainly due to lower death benefits received from insurance carriers.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expenses totaled $112.0 million in Q1 2026, a decrease of $5.3 million compared to Q4 2025. The decrease was primarily attributable to decreases within other non-interest expense of $2.2 million in insurance expenses related to investments in tax credit structures with a corresponding benefit to income tax expense in Q4 2025, $1.7 million in provision for credit losses on unfunded lending commitments and $0.8 million in FDIC assessments, partially offset by an increase of $1.0 million in commercial lease depreciation associated with the Bank’s continued growth.
“In Q4 2025, we had a total of $4.8 million of expense that was unique to the quarter and taking this impact into account, expenses were down modestly quarter over quarter even as we continue to invest in our future. We successfully achieved our initial operational excellence goal of $20 million in annual run rate revenue enhancements and expense savings providing capacity for further investment in the franchise. Importantly we are driving significant positive operating leverage with core revenue* growth of 16% and core expense* growth of only 9% in Q1 2026 compared to Q1 2025. This drove an over 300 basis point decline in our core efficiency ratio* over that same time period,” stated Mark McCollom.
Non-interest expenses totaled $112.0 million in Q1 2026, an increase of $9.2 million compared to Q1 2025. The increase was primarily attributable to increases of $8.6 million in salaries and employee benefits and $4.2 million in commercial lease depreciation associated with the Bank’s continued growth. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $3.5 million in FDIC assessments.
Taxes
Income tax expense decreased by $2.2 million to a provision of $20.7 million in Q1 2026 from $22.8 million in Q4 2025 primarily due to lower pre-tax income and an increase in discrete tax benefits including benefits associated with stock-based compensation and adjustments related to prior tax positions, and increased by $21.7 million from a benefit to provision of $1.0 million in Q1 2025 primarily due to higher pre-tax income and lower investment tax credits. The effective tax rate was 22.9% for Q1 2026.
Outlook
“We were very pleased with the start to 2026 and remain focused on executing in those areas which differentiate us from our peers. We believe that truly exceptional service, sophisticated product offerings, recruitment of top talent, exceptional payment capabilities, and a single point of contact service model will deliver sustainable long-term growth.
There are four priorities that will command our attention and investment in 2026. First, we are targeting to increase our utilization of AI and automation technologies to transform our organization by providing enhanced client experiences and organizational productivity. Second, we will seek to deepen and broaden our payments capabilities by widening the industries and use cases we serve and by strengthening relationships with existing clients through expanded product offerings. Third, we will look to continue to deliver above industry average loan and deposit portfolio growth and build upon our successful team recruitment strategy. And fourth, we will seek to do this while operating with a high standard of regulatory and risk management excellence and maintaining a strong capital base, liquidity, and credit quality.
We believe we are incredibly well positioned to continue to achieve these goals and deliver excellent client service and strong financial performance in 2026 and beyond,” concluded Sam Sidhu.

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP TO NON-GAAP MEASURES - UNAUDITED
We believe that the non-GAAP measurements disclosed within this document are useful for investors, regulators, management and others to evaluate our core results of operations and financial condition relative to other financial institutions. These non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude from corresponding GAAP measures the impact of certain elements that we do not believe are representative of our ongoing financial results, which we believe enhance an overall understanding of our performance and increases comparability of our period to period results. Investors should consider our performance and financial condition as reported under GAAP and all other relevant information when assessing our performance or financial condition. The non-GAAP measures presented are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP measures that may be presented by other financial institutions. Although non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used in the evaluation of a company, they have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results of operations or financial condition as reported under GAAP. Starting in Q3 2025, certain adjustments to GAAP measures were no longer included as our intention going forward is to limit these adjustments to those items of greatest significance.
The following tables present reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP measures disclosed within this document.

These non-GAAP financial measures exclude from corresponding GAAP measures the impact of certain elements that we do not believe are representative of our ongoing financial results, which we believe enhance an overall understanding of our performance and increases comparability of our period to period results.

The non-GAAP measures presented are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP measures that may be presented by other financial institutions. Although non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used in the evaluation of a company, they have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results of operations or financial condition as reported under GAAP.
