FinWise Bancorp filings document the public-company record for the holding company of FinWise Bank, including results releases, investor presentation materials, executive leadership changes, and annual-meeting governance. Form 8-K reports cover quarterly operating results, Regulation FD materials, and officer appointments tied to the holding company and bank.
Proxy filings describe shareholder meeting matters, board and governance information, executive compensation, voting procedures, and ownership-related disclosures.

FinWise Bancorp reported first-quarter 2026 net income of $2.7 million, down from $3.2 million a year earlier, as higher credit costs offset strong interest revenue growth.
Total interest income rose to $33.5 million from $18.5 million, driven mainly by higher interest and fees on loans. However, the provision for credit losses increased to $10.6 million from $3.3 million, reflecting a larger allowance tied to its loan portfolio, including Strategic Program loans.
Non-interest income nearly doubled to $14.6 million, helped by $5.9 million of credit enhancement income and higher gain-on-sale and interchange revenue. Non-interest expenses also doubled to $28.3 million, led by credit enhancement servicing and guarantee expenses and higher compensation costs. Diluted earnings per share were $0.20 versus $0.23 in 2025. Total assets declined to $899.4 million, and deposits fell to $674.9 million, while the bank maintained a strong community bank leverage ratio of 16.8%, well above the 9.0% well-capitalized threshold.
