Rhea-AI Filing Summary

FirstSun Capital Bancorp reported mixed first quarter 2026 results while closing a major merger. Net income was $21.6 million, or $0.76 per diluted share, down from $24.8 million and $0.88 in the prior quarter. Adjusted net income was $23.7 million, or $0.84 per diluted share.

Net interest income was $82.8 million and net interest margin improved to 4.25%. Loans reached $6.9 billion, up $266.8 million, or 16.2% annualized, while deposits were stable at $7.1 billion and the loan-to-deposit ratio rose to 97.9%. Credit costs increased, with an $8.3 million provision and $10.6 million in net charge-offs, or 0.63% of average loans. Capital remained strong, with a common equity tier 1 ratio of 13.77% and tangible book value per share rising to $38.57. On April 1, 2026, FirstSun completed its merger with First Foundation Inc., creating a larger franchise with $8.6 billion in assets as of March 31, 2026.

Positive

  • Completed transformational merger with First Foundation Inc. on April 1, 2026, positioning FirstSun as a larger, more diversified franchise with pro forma combined assets over the standalone $8.6 billion reported as of March 31, 2026.
  • Strong capital and tangible book growth, with a common equity tier 1 ratio of 13.77%, total risk-based capital of 15.29%, and tangible book value per share increasing by $0.74 to $38.57 in the quarter.
  • Healthy core profitability and margin, including a net interest margin of 4.25%, noninterest income contributing 24.7% of total revenue, and adjusted return on average tangible stockholders’ equity of 9.10%.

Negative

  • Rising credit costs and charge-offs, as provision for credit losses increased to $8.3 million and net charge-offs rose to $10.6 million, or 0.63% of average loans, driven by two commercial and industrial relationships.
  • Near-term earnings pressure, with net income declining to $21.6 million and diluted EPS to $0.76 from $24.8 million and $0.88 in the prior quarter, while the efficiency ratio deteriorated to 68.52%.

Insights

Stronger franchise after merger, but higher credit costs temper solid margin and loan growth.

FirstSun delivered another quarter of strong core banking performance, with net interest margin at 4.25% and loans up $266.8 million (16.2% annualized) to $6.9 billion. Noninterest income was diversified at 24.7% of total revenue, and efficiency remained in the mid‑60% range on an adjusted basis.

Credit quality metrics weakened, as provision for credit losses rose to $8.3 million and net charge-offs increased to $10.6 million, or 0.63% of average loans, mainly from two C&I relationships. Even so, the allowance covered 1.20% of loans and nonperforming assets were a modest 0.82% of total assets.

The completed merger with First Foundation and planned balance sheet repositioning are the main strategic developments. Management highlights strong capital with a common equity tier 1 ratio of 13.77% and tangible book value per share of $38.57. Subsequent filings and earnings updates will show how combined loan mix, funding costs and credit trends evolve through full‑year 2026.

net interest margin financial
"Our net interest margin increased 7 basis points to 4.25% compared to the prior quarter."
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.
tangible book value per share financial
"Tangible book value per share, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $38.57 at March 31, 2026, an increase of $0.74"
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.
allowance for credit losses financial
"The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans outstanding was 1.20% at March 31, 2026"
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 assets financial
"The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.82% at March 31, 2026"
Nonperforming assets are loans or investments that are not generating expected payments or returns because the borrower has fallen behind on payments or the investment has lost value. They matter to investors because a high level of nonperforming assets can indicate financial trouble for a bank or institution, potentially affecting its stability and profitability.
efficiency ratio financial
"The efficiency ratio for the first quarter of 2026 was 68.52% compared to 65.37% for the prior quarter."
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.
Shared National Credit financial
"Loans: Shared National Credit $ 650 $ 660 $ 60 $ 720"
Net income $21.6 million
Diluted EPS $0.76
Adjusted net income $23.7 million
Net interest income $82.8 million
Net interest margin 4.25%
Guidance

Management provided a 2026 full year financial outlook including mid-3.80s net interest margin range, low-20s noninterest income to total revenue, mid- to low-60s adjusted efficiency ratio, and mid-20s basis points net charge-offs to average loans, inclusive of the First Foundation merger and planned balance sheet repositioning.

FirstSun Capital Bancorp Reports First Quarter 2026 Results
First Quarter 2026 Highlights:
•Net interest margin of 4.25%
•Loan growth of 16.2%, annualized
•24.7% noninterest income to total revenue1
•Net income of $21.6 million, $0.76 per diluted share (adjusted, $23.7 million, $0.84 per diluted share, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations” below)
•Return on average total assets of 1.04% (adjusted, 1.14%, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations” below)
•Return on average stockholders’ equity of 7.47% (adjusted, 8.20%, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations” below)
Denver, Colorado – April 27, 2026 – FirstSun Capital Bancorp (“FirstSun”) (NASDAQ: FSUN) reported net income of $21.6 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to net income of $23.6 million for the first quarter of 2025. Earnings per diluted share were $0.76 for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $0.83 for the first quarter of 2025. Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $23.7 million or $0.84 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2026.
On April 1, 2026, we completed our merger with First Foundation Inc. (“First Foundation”). During the first quarter of 2026, we incurred $2.7 million in merger related expenses. Because the merger closed after quarter-end, First Foundation’s historical consolidated financial results are not included in our results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.
Neal Arnold, FirstSun’s Chief Executive Officer and President, commented, “First quarter results reflect the continued strength of our core franchise, highlighted by robust loan growth of 16.2% annualized, a consistently strong net interest margin of 4.25%, and a balanced revenue profile with noninterest income representing 24.7% of total revenue. While we saw higher credit costs this quarter, we believe our relationship focused and well diversified business model and our presence across some of the most dynamic markets in the country position us for continued success.
“Additionally, we are pleased to welcome the customers and team members from First Foundation and are encouraged by the momentum observed during the initial stages of integration following closing. Our teams are focused on execution, and we are progressing in line with our expectations on our merger-related balance sheet repositioning while also beginning to realize identified operating synergies. As we move forward, we are confident in our ability to deliver enhanced value-added solutions to our customers across our expanded footprint while driving sustainable long-term value for our stockholders.”
First Quarter 2026 Results

Net income totaled $21.6 million, or $0.76 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $24.8 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, for the prior quarter. Adjusted net income, a non-GAAP financial measure, totaled $23.7 million, or $0.84 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $26.9 million, or $0.95 per diluted share, for the prior quarter.

Return on average total assets was 1.04% for the first quarter of 2026, compared to 1.17% for the prior quarter, and return on average stockholders’ equity was 7.47% for the first quarter of 2026, compared to 8.58% for the prior quarter. Adjusted return on average total assets and adjusted return on average stockholders’ equity, each a non-GAAP financial measure, were 1.14% and 8.20% respectively for the first quarter of 2026 compared to 1.27% and 9.31% respectively for the prior quarter.
1 Total revenue is net interest income plus noninterest income.





Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income totaled $82.8 million for the first quarter of 2026, a decrease of $0.7 million compared to the prior quarter. Our net interest margin increased 7 basis points to 4.25% compared to the prior quarter.
Average loans, including loans held-for-sale, increased by $32.1 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to the prior quarter. Loan yield decreased by one basis point to 6.36% in the first quarter of 2026, compared to the prior quarter, primarily due to the declining interest rate environment and its impact on variable rate loans in the loan portfolio. Average interest-bearing cash and other assets decreased by $40.3 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to the prior quarter. Interest-bearing cash and other assets yield decreased by 32 basis points to 3.36% in the first quarter of 2026, compared to the prior quarter, primarily due to the declining interest rate environment.
Average interest-bearing deposits increased $28.8 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to the prior quarter. Total cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased by 14 basis points to 2.46% in the first quarter of 2026, compared to the prior quarter, primarily due to rate decreases for certificates of deposit and money market deposits amidst the declining interest rate environment and a decrease in certificates of deposit balances.
Asset Quality and Provision for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses increased $2.1 million to $8.3 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to the prior quarter, primarily due to net portfolio downgrades and impacts from growth in loan portfolio balances.
Net charge-offs for the first quarter of 2026 were $10.6 million resulting in an annualized ratio of net charge-offs to average loans of 0.63%, compared to net charge-offs of $5.0 million, or an annualized ratio of net charge-offs to average loans of 0.30% for the prior quarter. The increase in net charge-offs for the first quarter of 2026 was primarily due to write-downs related to two specific customer relationships in our C&I loan portfolio.
The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans outstanding was 1.20% at March 31, 2026, a decrease of seven basis points from the prior quarter. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.82% at March 31, 2026, compared to 0.85% at December 31, 2025.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income totaled $27.2 million for the first quarter of 2026, an increase of $0.4 million from the prior quarter. Income from mortgage banking services increased $2.2 million for the first quarter of 2026, from the prior quarter, primarily due to an increase in net gain on sales and fair value driven by an 11.4% increase in total originations. Other noninterest income decreased $1.8 million for the first quarter of 2026, from the prior quarter, primarily due to a decrease in loan syndication fees and swap fee income, and a decrease in the fair value of investments related to our deferred compensation plan.
Noninterest income as a percentage of total revenue2 was 24.7% for the first quarter of 2026, an increase of 0.4% from the prior quarter.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense totaled $75.3 million for the first quarter of 2026, an increase of $3.3 million from the prior quarter. Salary and employee benefits increased $3.8 million in the first quarter of 2026 from the prior quarter, primarily due to the seasonal increase in payroll taxes and retirement account contributions, and an increase in medical insurance costs. Other noninterest expenses decreased $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2026 from the prior quarter, primarily due to the acceleration of remaining deferred expenses related to the $40.0 million subordinated notes redemption and maintenance expenses related to OREO properties, both incurred in the fourth quarter of 2025. Merger related expenses increased $0.5 million in the first quarter of 2026 from the prior quarter.
2 Total revenue is net interest income plus noninterest income.

The efficiency ratio for the first quarter of 2026 was 68.52% compared to 65.37% for the prior quarter. The adjusted efficiency ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure, for the first quarter of 2026 was 66.08% compared to 63.36% for the prior quarter.
Tax Rate
The effective tax rate was 18.1% for the first quarter of 2026, compared to 22.4% for the prior quarter.

Deposits
Deposits were $7.1 billion at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, a decrease of $19.8 million in the first quarter of 2026, or 1.1% on an annualized basis, primarily due to decreases of $79.9 million in certificates of deposit, which includes a decrease in brokered deposit balances of $58.6 million, and a $51.5 million decrease in noninterest-bearing deposit accounts, partially offset by an increase of $86.1 million in demand and NOW accounts. Average deposits were $7.0 billion for the first quarter of 2026 and $7.1 billion for the prior quarter, decreasing $45.8 million or 2.6% on an annualized basis.
Noninterest-bearing deposit accounts represented 22.6% of total deposits at March 31, 2026 and the loan to deposit ratio was 97.9% at March 31, 2026.

Deposits Classification
Previously, deposit amounts related to certain NOW accounts with limited monthly transaction activity were able to be reclassified to money market accounts to reduce reserve requirements at the Federal Reserve. As there is no longer any impact to reserve requirements across different deposit products, we have discontinued this product reclassification practice and have revised the presentation of those deposits to conform to the current presentation for periods prior to March 31, 2026.
CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding our recently completed merger with First Foundation, including expectations with regard to the benefits of the merger, progress on the execution of our merger-related balance sheet repositioning and our ability to drive sustainable long-term value for our stockholders. These statements reflect management’s current expectations and are not guarantees of future performance. Words such as “focus,” “confident,” “may,” “will,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “intend,” “opportunity,” “continue,” “should,” “could,” “progress” and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence, which could cause actual results to differ materially from anticipated results. Such risks, uncertainties and assumptions, include, among others, the following: changes in interest rates and their related impact on macroeconomic conditions, customer behavior, our funding costs and our loan and securities portfolios; the quality or composition of our loan or investment portfolios and changes therein; failure to maintain our mortgage production flow to secondary markets; the sufficiency of liquidity and changes in our capital position; the inability of our infrastructure initiatives to reduce expenses; increased deposit volatility; potential regulatory developments; U.S. and global trade policies and tensions, including change in, or the imposition of, tariffs and/or trade barriers and the economic impacts, volatility and uncertainty resulting therefrom; ongoing geopolitical conflicts, including hostilities involving Iran and the Middle East, which may contribute to volatility in energy prices, inflation, financial markets, cybersecurity threats, and broader macroeconomic conditions, any of which could adversely affect our borrowers, deposit base, liquidity, capital and results of operation; the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the First Foundation merger, including anticipated cost savings and strategic gains, are not realized when expected or at all; the integration of the businesses and operations of FirstSun and First Foundation may take longer than anticipated or be more costly than anticipated or have unanticipated adverse results relating to the combined company’s business; the execution of the planned balance sheet repositioning related to the First Foundation merger may be more difficult, costly or time consuming than expected and we may fail to realize the anticipated benefits; the diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities due to the First Foundation merger; other factors, many of which are beyond our control.
We caution readers that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive, is not necessarily in order of importance and readers should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.

1Q2026 Earnings Presentation April 27, 2026 FirstSun Capital Bancorp NASDAQ: FSUN

 

FirstSun Capital Bancorp | 2 Disclaimers Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking information and statements by FirstSun Capital Bancorp (“FirstSun” or the “Company”) within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are generally identifiable by the use of words such as “believe”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “plan”, “project”, “intend”, “estimate”, “may”, “will”, “would”, “could”, “should”, “assume”, “assumptions”, “view”, “continue”, “opportunity”, “strategic emphasis,” “seek to,” and “outlook” or other similar expressions, and in this presentation include statements regarding our strategy, our planned remaining balance sheet repositioning related to our merger with First Foundation Inc. (“First Foundation” or “FFWM”), our outlook regarding our loan portfolio, deposit mix, net interest income, noninterest income, noninterest expense, asset quality, liquidity and capital priorities, as well as statements on the slide entitled “2026 Full Year Financial Outlook,” including our full year 2026 outlook, key assumptions and further expectations. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict with regard to timing, extent, likelihood and degree of occurrence, which could cause actual results to differ materially from anticipated results. Such risks, uncertainties and assumptions, include, among others, the following: changes in interest rates and their related impact on macroeconomic conditions, customer behavior, our funding costs and our loan and securities portfolios; the quality or composition of our loan or investment portfolios and changes therein; failure to maintain our mortgage production flow to secondary markets; the sufficiency of liquidity and changes in our capital position; the inability of our infrastructure initiatives to reduce expenses; increased deposit volatility; potential regulatory developments; U.S. and global trade policies and tensions, including change in, or the imposition of, tariffs and/or trade barriers and the economic impacts, volatility and uncertainty resulting therefrom; ongoing geopolitical conflicts, including hostilities involving Iran and the Middle East, which may contribute to volatility in energy prices, inflation, financial markets, cybersecurity threats, and broader macroeconomic conditions, any of which could adversely affect our borrowers, deposit base, liquidity, capital and results of operation; the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the First Foundation merger, including anticipated cost savings and strategic gains, are not realized when expected or at all; the integration of the businesses and operations of FirstSun and First Foundation may take longer than anticipated or be more costly than anticipated or have unanticipated adverse results relating to the combined company’s business; the execution of the planned balance sheet repositioning related to the First Foundation merger may be more difficult, costly or time consuming than expected and we may fail to realize the anticipated benefits; the diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities due to the First Foundation merger; other factors, many of which are beyond our control. We caution readers that the foregoing list of factors is not exclusive, is not necessarily in order of importance and readers should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Additional information concerning additional factors that could materially affect the forward-looking statements in this presentation can be found in the cautionary language included under the headings “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in FirstSun’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and other documents subsequently filed by FirstSun with the SEC. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made and we do not intend to and disclaim any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law. 2026 Full Year Outlook - Basis and Limitations Our 2026 Full Year Financial Outlook reflects management’s current expectations regarding certain financial and operating metrics and related key assumptions and further expectations as of April 27, 2026. Unless otherwise noted, outlook metrics represent full-year expectations and includes nine months impact of the First Foundation merger that closed on April 1, 2026. The outlook includes preliminary estimates of acquisition-related purchase accounting adjustments and the expected impact of our planned balance sheet repositioning activities, each with respect to the First Foundation merger, which are subject to change. The outlook and further expectations are provided for convenience and should not be regarded as a guarantee of future results. Actual results, conditions or outcomes may differ materially. See “Forward-Looking Statements” in the above heading. We undertake no obligation to update or affirm the outlook or further expectations, except as required by law. Forward-looking non-GAAP measures appearing in the 2026 Full Year Financial Outlook should be read together with “Use of Non-GAAP Measures.”

 

FirstSun Capital Bancorp | 3 Disclaimers (cont’d) Use of Non-GAAP Measures This presentation includes certain financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures include certain operating performance measures that exclude merger-related and other charges that are not considered part of the Company’s recurring operations. The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in their analysis of the Company’s performance and the efficiency of its operations. Management believes these non-GAAP measures provide a greater understanding of the Company’s ongoing operations, enhance comparability of results with prior periods and demonstrate the effects of significant items in the current period. The Company believes a meaningful analysis of its financial performance requires an understanding of the factors underlying that performance. The Company’s management believes investors may find these non-GAAP financial measures useful and that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information for evaluating the Company’s performance trends. Further, the Company’s management uses these measures in managing and evaluating the Company’s business and intends to refer to them in discussions about the Company’s operations and performance. These non-GAAP financial measures, however, should not be viewed as a substitute for financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies These measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative to, or substitute for, measures that are determined in accordance with GAAP. To the extent applicable, reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure are included in the Appendix to this presentation. Pro Forma Data Neither FirstSun’s nor First Foundation’s independent registered public accounting firms have studied, reviewed or performed any procedures with respect to the pro forma or pro forma forward-looking financial data for the purpose of inclusion in this presentation, and, accordingly, neither have expressed an opinion or provided any form of assurance with respect thereto for the purpose of this presentation. The pro forma combined data of FirstSun and First Foundation is as of March 31, 2026, and is based on the GAAP results of FirstSun and First Foundation for the applicable periods without adjustments, except where specifically noted. The pro forma combined data included in this presentation does not reflect any purchase accounting adjustments. All pro forma data should be reviewed in connection with the historical information of FirstSun and First Foundation, as applicable. These pro forma and pro forma forward-looking financial data are for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied on as necessarily being indicative of future results. The assumptions and estimates underlying the pro forma and pro forma forward-looking financial data are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in the prospective financial information, including those risks and uncertainties included in Disclaimers—Forward Looking-Statements on slide 2 of this presentation. Pro forma and pro forma forward-looking financial data are inherently uncertain due to a number of factors outside of FirstSun’s control. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the pro forma combined information, pro forma forward-looking financial information or prospective results are indicative of future performance of the combined company after the merger with First Foundation which closed on April 1, 2026 or that actual results will not differ materially from those presented in the pro forma and pro forma forward-looking financial data. Inclusion of pro forma and pro forma forward-looking financial data in this presentation should not be regarded as a representation by any person that such results will be achieved. Further, neither the pro forma nor the pro forma forward-looking financial data has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, and, therefore, does not reflect any of the adjustments that would be required thereby.

 

FirstSun Capital Bancorp | 4 Disclaimers (cont’d) Deposits Classification Previously, deposit amounts related to certain NOW accounts with limited monthly transaction activity were able to be reclassified to money market accounts to reduce reserve requirements at the Federal Reserve. As there is no longer any impact to reserve requirements across different deposit products, we have discontinued this product reclassification practice and have revised the presentation of those deposits to conform to the current presentation for periods prior to March 31, 2026. Market, Industry and Statistical Data Certain market and industry data used in this presentation are based on third-party sources, publicly available information and internal estimates. We believe such information to be reliable, but we have not independently verified it and make no representation as to its accuracy or completeness.

See "Disclaimers" beginning on slide 2. 2026 expectations assume no material changes to current regional, national and international macroeconomic environment. 2 Total revenue is net income plus noninterest income. 3Adjusted efficiency ratio is a forward-looking non-GAAP measure that exclude merger related expenses. We are unable to provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures because we are unable to provide, without unreasonable effort, a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of amounts that would be necessary for the reconciliation due to the complexity and inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying future amounts or when they may occur. The unavailable information could be material to future GAAP results, and we cannot quantify its probable significance because such items are inherently uncertain and depend on future events. Key Assumptions: • The outlook includes estimates of acquisition-related purchase accounting adjustments with respect to the First Foundation acquisition, which are subject to change • Includes the expected impact of our planned remaining repositioning activities, which are subject to change • One Fed Funds rate cut of 25 bps in September 2026 Further Expectations: • TBV dilution from acquisition expected to be a couple points better than the 14% level targeted at announcement ◦ Loan interest rate accretion for 2026 expected in range of $55-$60M • Fully phased-in cost savings expected to be slightly above 35% cost savings targeted at announcement for First Foundation core non-interest expense • Continued loan remix into C&I (including re-mix of acquired non-relationship multi-family loans and SNC loans) • Investor CRE concentration expected to be below targeted 250% of capital post-repositioning • Loan to deposit ratio expected to be in mid to high 80s range post- repositioning • Wholesale funding ratio expected to be ~10% post-repositioning • CET 1 ratio expected to be in the 10.70s range post-repositioning Key Assumptions and Further Expectations
