Sentiment and the balance of points

Rhea-AI Sentiment reads the wording of the document, how positive or negative its language is on a 1 to 5 scale. The balance of points shown with the takes weighs what the document actually discloses, so the two can disagree, for example when a trial that missed its main goal is described in upbeat language.

How this balance works

Rhea-AI gives every point it takes from this document a weight. Minor counts 1, Moderate 3 and Major 9, so one Major point outweighs several Minor ones. The bar adds up the weights on each side, and when neither side holds more than 65% of the total the balance reads Mixed.

It reads the document as published, with the same rules for every company, and it does not look at what the market expected or at how the stock traded, so a point can be objectively good on a day the stock falls.

Rhea-AI Sentiment measures something else, the tone of the wording.

"Loans are PSL if they are acquired at least 90 days"
core deposit intangible asset financial
"The identifiable intangible asset consists of a core deposit intangible asset"
An intangible asset recorded by a bank when it pays more than the fair value of a target’s net assets because it is buying valuable customer deposit relationships—essentially paying for a base of low-cost, stable accounts. Investors care because this is a non-cash item that is written down or amortized over time, which affects reported earnings and book value and signals how much a buyer values the reliability and cost advantages of those deposits; think of it as paying extra for a loyal customer list that brings ongoing cash at a low cost.
fair value hedges financial
"fair value hedges of interest rate risk"
Fair value hedges are financial contracts used to offset changes in the market value of a specific asset or liability, like locking a price to protect against swings in value. For investors, they matter because they reduce sudden swings in reported earnings and balance-sheet values that arise from market movements, helping reveal the company’s underlying performance much like insurance smooths out the financial impact of an unexpected loss.

HANCOCK WHITNEY CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hancock Whitney Corporation and all other entities in which it has a controlling interest (the “Company”). The financial statements include all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly state the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The Company has also evaluated all subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure through the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report” or “report”). Some financial information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. Financial information reported in these financial statements is not necessarily indicative of the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows for any other interim or annual period.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These changes in presentation did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or operating results.

Use of Estimates

The accounting principles the Company follows and the methods for applying these principles conform to GAAP and general practices followed by the banking industry. These accounting principles require management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounting Policies

There were no material changes or developments during the reporting period with respect to methodologies that the Company uses when applying what management believes are critical accounting policies and developing critical accounting estimates as disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

In conjunction with the adoption of ASU 2025-08, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans,” (“ASU 2025-08”) as of January 1, 2026, the Company updated its accounting policy for acquired loans as described below.

Acquired Loans

Acquired loans are initially evaluated to determine if they qualify as purchased credit deteriorated (PCD) loans. Loans classified as PCD include those individual loans or groups of loans with similar risk characteristics that, as of the date of acquisition, are assessed as having experienced a more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination. The assessment of what is more-than-insignificant credit deterioration since origination considers information including, but not limited to, financial assets that are delinquent, are on nonaccrual and/or are otherwise adversely risk rated as of the acquisition date. Loans that do not meet the criteria to be classified as PCD are then evaluated to determine whether they qualify as purchased seasoned loans (PSL). Loans are PSL if they are acquired at least 90 days after origination and the Company was not involved in the origination of the loan, or if they were acquired in a business combination. Excluded from the scope of PSL are credit card loans, debt securities, contract assets, trade receivables and leases.

For loans classified as PCD and PSL, the Company bifurcates the fair value discount or premium between credit and noncredit components. The credit portion of the fair value discount or premium is added to the initial amortized cost basis of the loans with a corresponding increase to the allowance for credit losses at the date of acquisition. Any noncredit discount or premium resulting from acquired loans classified as PCD and PSL is allocated to each individual loan. All other acquired loans not classified as PCD or PSL and leases are recorded at the estimated fair value at acquisition, with an estimated allowance for credit loss recorded as a provision for credit losses through earnings in the period in which the acquisition has occurred. The noncredit discount or premium for loans classified as PCD and PSL and full discount for all other loans and leases are accreted to interest income using the interest method based on the effective interest rate at the acquisition date.

Refer to Note 17 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements for a discussion of the impact of the adoption of ASU 2025-08.

2. Acquisition

On August 1, 2026, the Company completed its previously announced acquisition of OFB Bancshares, Inc., the parent company of One Florida Bank, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated May 15, 2026 (the "Merger Agreement"). The total purchase consideration was $377.6 million for all outstanding shares of OFB Bancshares, Inc. common stock and stock options. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, holders of OFB Bancshares, Inc. common stock received aggregate cash consideration of approximately $355.1 million, or $29.273 per share. In addition, each holder of outstanding OFB Bancshares, Inc. stock options received cash equal to the per-share value of the merger consideration over the per-share exercise price, resulting in aggregate cash consideration of approximately $22.5 million that was paid by OFB Bancshares, Inc. on behalf of the Company. Outstanding OFB Bancshares, Inc. stock options with a per-share exercise price equal to or greater than the per-share value of the merger consideration were cancelled for no consideration.

One Florida Bank operated five financial centers in the greater Orlando, Florida market and one financial center in the Florida Panhandle. The acquisition expands the Company's presence in Florida and establishes a significant position in the high-growth Orlando metropolitan market.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recorded at their fair values as of the acquisition date. These fair values are considered preliminary as of September 30, 2026, as the fair value estimate of certain assets acquired and liabilities assumed are subject to continued refinement. Fair value estimates are subject to change for up to one year after the date of acquisition as additional information becomes available.

The following table sets forth the preliminary acquisition-date fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed, and the resulting goodwill. Goodwill is comprised of estimated future economic benefits arising from the transaction that cannot be individually identified or do not qualify for separate recognition. These benefits include expanded presence in the Florida market and expected earnings streams and operational efficiencies that the Company believes will result from this business combination. Goodwill is not deductible for federal income tax purposes.

Table of Contents

 

Securities available for sale: The securities available for sale portfolio consisted primarily of mortgaged backed securities and were valued using a third-party pricing service that uses industry-standard pricing models. The acquired portfolio was sold prior to September 30, 2026.

Loans: The fair values of loans at the acquisition date were estimated using a discounted cash flow method. Loans were grouped into pools based on factors including the type of loan, fixed or variable interest rate, and credit quality indicators. The discount rates were based on an evaluation of market participants’ required rate of return to purchase similar assets by calculating a weighted-average funding cost that was adjusted for differential servicing costs, liquidity, and credit quality when necessary. The credit related portion of the loan discount for loans designated as PCD and PSL was added back to the amortized cost with a corresponding adjustment to the allowance for loan losses.

The following table presents additional information on acquired loans, including the initial fair value for loans designated as PCD and PSL at acquisition.

Property and Equipment: Fair values for bank premises and equipment were generally based on appraisals of the property values.

Identifiable intangible asset: The identifiable intangible asset consists of a core deposit intangible asset equal to the estimated value of the relationships with deposit customers based on the favorable source of funds method. The fair value was estimated based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considered expected customer attrition rates, the cost of the deposit base, the alternative cost of funds, and the discount rate. The core deposit intangible will be amortized using sum-of-the-years’ digits over an estimated life of 15 years.

Deposits: The fair values used for the demand and savings deposits equal the amount payable on demand at the acquisition date. The fair values for time deposits were estimated using a discounted cash flow calculation that applies interest rates currently being offered to the contractual interest rates, which approximated the carrying amount.

Long-term debt: Long-term debt consists of $35.0 million of long-term Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances and $30.0 million of redeemable fixed-to-floating subordinated notes with maturity in 2031. The fair values of long-term debt instruments are estimated based on quoted market prices for the instrument, where available, or by using discounted cash flow analyses, based on current incremental borrowing rates for similar types of instruments. The Company repaid the FHLB advances immediately following the completion of the merger and redeemed the subordinated notes on October 1, 2026.

 

The operating results of the Company for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 include the results from the operations of the acquired business from the date of acquisition. During these periods, the acquired business contributed $15.4 million to total revenues (net interest income plus noninterest income) and $9.6 million to net income before taxes. These results exclude acquisition-related costs, as outlined below. As the business combination is not deemed significant and the operating results are not material to the Company's results of operations, supplemental pro forma financial information is not presented.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company incurred acquisition-related costs of approximately $30.4 million. Acquisition costs include legal, consulting, contract terminations, compensation, and other merger-related and integration expenses, and the initial provision for credit losses on acquired unfunded loan commitments. The following table presents the acquisition-related costs by component:

The Company held no securities classified as trading at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

In January 2026, the Company completed a restructuring of its available for sale investment securities portfolio, whereby lower-yielding securities with an amortized cost of $1.5 billion were sold and the proceeds were reinvested in higher-yielding securities. Certain securities that were sold were previously hedged in derivative instruments designated as fair value hedges of interest rate risk that were subsequently terminated. At the time of termination, the value of the swap was recorded as basis adjustment to the amortized cost of the underlying security. The basis adjustment is amortized as yield adjustment while the security is held, and affects the net gain or loss realized by the remaining unamortized basis adjustment when sold. The unamortized basis adjustment recognized in connection with this portfolio restructuring reduced the net loss by approximately $50.4 million, resulting in a net realized loss of $98.6 million. Refer to Note 7 – Derivatives for a discussion of fair value hedges of interest rate risk.

In August 2026, the Company sold the securities acquired in the OFB transaction with no resulting gain or loss.

The following table presents the proceeds from, gross gains on, and gross losses on sales of securities during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025. Net gains or losses are reflected in the "Securities transactions, net" line item on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Securities with carrying values totaling approximately $3.1 billion and $3.9 billion were pledged as collateral at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, primarily to secure public deposits or securities sold under agreements to repurchase.

Credit Quality

The Company’s policy is to invest only in securities of investment grade quality. These investments are largely limited to U.S. agency securities and municipal securities. Management has concluded, based on the long history of no credit losses, that the expectation of nonpayment of the held to maturity securities carried at amortized cost is zero for securities that are backed by the full faith and credit of and/or guaranteed by the U.S. government. As such, no allowance for credit losses has been recorded for these securities. The municipal portfolio is analyzed separately in estimating the allowance for credit losses in accordance with the applicable guidance for each portfolio as noted below.

The Company evaluates credit impairment for individual securities available for sale whose fair value is below amortized cost with a more than inconsequential risk of default and where the Company has assessed whether the decline in fair value is significant enough to suggest a credit event has occurred. The Company did not identify any securities with a material credit loss event and, therefore, no allowance for credit loss was recorded in any period presented.

The fair value and gross unrealized losses for securities classified as available for sale with unrealized losses for the periods indicated follow.

At each reporting period, the Company evaluated its held to maturity municipal obligation portfolio for credit loss using probability of default and loss given default models. The models were run using a long-term average probability of default migration and with a probability weighting of Moody’s economic forecasts. The resulting credit losses, if any, were negligible and no allowance for credit loss was recorded.

The fair value and gross unrealized losses for securities classified as held to maturity with unrealized losses for the periods indicated follow.

As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had 712 and 604 securities, respectively, with market values below their cost basis. There were no material unrealized losses related to the marketability of the securities or the issuer’s ability to meet contractual obligations. In all cases, the indicated impairment on these debt securities would be recovered no later than the security’s maturity date or possibly earlier if the market price for the security increases with a reduction in the yield required by the market. The unrealized losses were deemed to be non-credit related at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. At September 30, 2026, the Company had adequate liquidity and, therefore, neither planned nor expected to be required to liquidate these securities before recovery of the amortized cost basis.

4. Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company generally makes loans in its market areas of southern and central Mississippi; southern and central Alabama; northwest, central and southern Louisiana; the northern, central and panhandle regions of Florida; certain areas of east and northeast Texas; and the metropolitan areas of Nashville, Tennessee, Atlanta, Georgia and Charlotte, North Carolina. In addition, and to a lesser degree, the Bank makes loans both regionally and nationally, generally through its specialty lines of business, including the equipment finance, commercial real estate and healthcare segments, often with sponsors in our market areas.

The following table presents loans at their amortized cost basis by portfolio class at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The amortized cost basis is net of unearned income and excludes accrued interest totaling $111.5 million and $105.1 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Accrued interest is reflected in the accrued interest line item in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The following briefly describes the composition of each loan category and portfolio class.

Commercial and industrial

Commercial and industrial loans are made available to businesses for working capital (including financing of inventory and receivables), for business expansion, facilitating the acquisition of a business, and for the purchase of equipment and machinery, including equipment leasing. These loans are primarily made based on the identified cash flows of the borrower and, when secured, have the added strength of the underlying collateral.

Commercial non-real estate loans may be secured by the assets being financed or other tangible or intangible business assets such as accounts receivable, inventory, ownership, enterprise value or commodity interests, and may incorporate a personal or corporate guarantee; however, some short-term loans may be made on an unsecured basis, including a small portfolio of corporate credit cards, generally issued as a part of overall customer relationships.

Commercial real estate – owner occupied loans consist of commercial mortgages on properties where repayment is generally dependent on the cash flow from the ongoing operations and activities of the borrower. Like commercial non-real estate, these loans are primarily made based on the identified cash flows of the borrower, but they also have the added strength of the value of underlying real estate collateral.

Commercial real estate – income producing

Commercial real estate – income producing loans consist of loans secured by commercial mortgages on properties where the loan is made to real estate developers or investors and repayment is dependent on the sale, refinance, or income generated from the operation of the property. Properties financed include multifamily, retail, healthcare related facilities, industrial, office, hotel/motel and restaurants, and other commercial properties.

Table of Contents

 

Construction and land development

Construction and land development loans are made to facilitate the acquisition, development, improvement and construction of both commercial and residential-purpose properties. Such loans are made to builders and investors where repayment is expected to be made from the sale, refinance or operation of the property or to businesses to be used in their business operations. This portfolio also includes residential construction loans and loans secured by farmland and raw land not yet under development.

Residential mortgages

Residential mortgages consist of closed-end loans secured by first liens on 1-4 family residential properties. The portfolio includes both fixed and adjustable rate loans, although most longer-term, fixed rate loans originated are sold in the secondary mortgage market.

Consumer

Consumer loans include second lien mortgage home loans, home equity lines of credit and nonresidential consumer purpose loans. Nonresidential consumer loans are made to finance the purchase of personal property, including automobiles, recreational vehicles and boats, and for other personal purposes (secured and unsecured), and also include deposit account secured loans. Consumer loans also include a small portfolio of credit card receivables issued on the basis of applications received through referrals from the Bank’s branches, online and other marketing efforts.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The calculation of the allowance for credit losses is performed using two primary approaches: a collective approach using a loss rate analysis for pools of loans that have similar risk characteristics, and a specific reserve analysis for credits individually evaluated. The allowance for credit losses for collectively evaluated portfolios is developed using multiple Moody’s macroeconomic forecasts applied in internally developed credit models for a two-year reasonable and supportable period. For additional information on our allowance for credit loss methodology, refer to Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Recent Accounting Pronouncements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

The following tables present activity in the allowance for credit losses by portfolio class for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, as well as the allowance for credit loss by primary calculation method at the end of each period.

The allowance for credit losses at September 30, 2026 increased $34.2 million, which includes both the initial allowance on purchased seasoned loans and purchased credit deteriorated loans totaling $21.9 million and a modest net increase in the funded and unfunded reserves. The modest increase in reserves was largely driven by the growth in the commercial loan portfolios and reflects relatively stable credit metrics when compared to year-end. In arriving at the allowance for credit losses at September 30, 2026, the Company weighted Moody’s September 2026 baseline economic forecast at 50% and the downside mild recessionary S-2 scenario at 50%. The September 2026 baseline scenario, which Moody’s defines as the most likely outcome of where the economy is headed based on current conditions, reflects the potential impacts of current geopolitical conflicts and continued elevated inflation, and projects moderate GDP growth and gradually rising unemployment in the near term. The S-2 scenario assumes heightened geopolitical and

The allowance for credit losses at September 30, 2025 was down modestly on a net basis compared to December 31, 2024, largely driven by declines in the commercial real estate - income producing and the construction and land development portfolios, that was partially offset by increases in commercial non-real estate due to the expected impact of continued stress of market conditions on our borrowers. In arriving at the allowance for credit losses at September 30, 2025, the Company weighted the Moody's baseline economic forecast at 50% and the downside mild recessionary S-2 scenario at 50%.

As a part of our loss mitigation efforts, we may provide modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty to improve long-term collectability of the loans and to avoid the need for repossession or foreclosure of collateral. Nonaccrual loans include reportable nonaccruing modified loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty (MEFDs) totaling $10.6 million and $5.8 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Total reportable MEFDs, both accruing and nonaccruing, were $115.1 million and $162.8 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Unfunded commitments to borrowers whose terms have been modified as a reportable MEFD were $3.7 million and $7.2 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

For the three months ended September 30, 2026, reportable modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty consisted of weighted average term extensions totaling approximately seven months for commercial loans, two years for residential mortgage loans and nine months for consumer loans. Reportable modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 consisted of weighted average term extensions totaling approximately 11 months for commercial loans, two years for residential mortgage loans and 10 months for consumer loans. The weighted average term of other than insignificant payment delays for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was six months for commercial loans. The weighted average term of other than insignificant payment delays for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was approximately two years for commercial loans. In addition, the weighted-average interest rate reduction for commercial loans during the three months ended September 30, 2026 was 525 basis points. The weighted-average interest rate reduction during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was 525 basis points for commercial loans and 164 basis points for residential loans. Term extensions and payment delays are considered other than insignificant when they exceed six months when considering other modifications made in the prior 12 months.

Reportable modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the three months ended September 30, 2025 consisted of weighted average term extensions totaling approximately seven months for commercial loans and three years for residential mortgage and consumer loans. Reportable modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 consisted of weighted average term extensions totaling approximately 11 months for commercial loans, 18 months for residential mortgage loans and 31 months for consumer loans. The weighted average term of other than insignificant payment delays for the three months ended September 30, 2025 was one year for residential loans and seven months for consumer loans. The weighted average term of other than insignificant payment delays for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was four months for commercial loans, 10 months for residential mortgage loans and seven months for consumer loans. The weighted-average interest rate reduction for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 for the residential portfolio was 240 basis points.

The Company routinely assesses the ratings of loans in its portfolio through an established and comprehensive portfolio management process. Below are the definitions of the Company’s internally assigned grades:

Commercial:

•
Pass – loans properly approved, documented, collateralized, and performing which do not reflect an abnormal credit risk.
•
Pass-Watch – credits in this category are of sufficient risk to cause concern. This category is reserved for credits that display negative performance trends. The “Watch” grade should be regarded as a transition category.
•
Special Mention – a criticized asset category defined as having potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may, at some future date, result in the deterioration of the repayment prospects for the credit or the institution’s credit position. Special mention credits are not considered part of the classified credit categories and do not expose the institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.
•
Substandard – an asset that is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
•
Doubtful – an asset that has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
•
Loss – credits classified as loss are considered uncollectable and are charged off promptly once so classified.

Residential and Consumer:

•
Performing – accruing loans.
•
Nonperforming – loans for which there are good reasons to doubt that payments will be made in full. Nonperforming loans include all loans with nonaccrual status.

Vintage Analysis

The following tables present credit quality disclosures of amortized cost by class and vintage for term loans and by revolving and revolving converted to amortizing at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The Company defines vintage as the later of origination, renewal or modification date. Loans acquired in the OFB transaction are reflected in the September 30, 2026 vintage table based on the original terms. The gross charge-offs presented in the tables that follow are for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and the year ended December 31, 2025.

5. Investments in Low Income Housing Tax Credit Entities

The Company invests in certain affordable housing project limited partnerships that are qualified low-income housing tax credit developments. These investments are considered variable interest entities for which the Company is not the primary beneficiary and, therefore, are not consolidated. These partnerships generate low-income tax credits that are earned over a 10-year period, beginning with the year the rental activity begins. The Company has elected to use the practical expedient method of amortization, which approximates the proportional amortization method, whereby the investment cost is amortized in proportion to the allocated tax credits over the 10 year tax credit period. Additionally, the Company recognizes deferred taxes on the basis difference of the tax equity investment to reflect the financial impact of other tax benefits (e.g., tax operating losses) not included in the practical expedient amortization. The tax credits, when realized, are reflected in the consolidated statements of income as a reduction of income tax expense. The Company’s investments in affordable housing limited partnerships totaled $37.5 million at both September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, with a balance net of accumulated amortization included in the other assets line item on our Consolidated Balance Sheets totaling $19.0 million and $21.8 million, respectively, for those same periods. The net impact of the low-income housing tax credit program was not material to our Consolidated Statements of Income or Cash Flows for the three or nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

6. Borrowings

Short-term borrowings include Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances totaling $750.0 million as of September 30, 2026 and $400.0 million as of December 31, 2025. At September 30, 2026, FHLB advances outstanding consisted of six fixed-rate notes with a weighted average interest rate of 3.93% and maturity dates ranging from October 1, 2026 through April 29, 2027. At December 31, 2025, FHLB advances outstanding consisted of one fixed-rate note bearing interest at 3.62% entered into on December 31, 2025, that matured on January 2, 2026. As short-term advances mature, they are generally paid off and replaced with new short-term FHLB advances, if warranted, depending on funding needs.

Also included in short-term borrowings are securities sold under agreements to repurchase that mature daily and are secured by U.S. agency securities totaling $554.0 million and $546.9 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The Company borrows funds on a secured basis by selling securities under agreements to repurchase, mainly in connection with treasury management services offered to its deposit customers. As the Company maintains effective control over assets sold under agreements to repurchase, the securities continue to be carried on the consolidated statements of financial condition. Because the Company acts as borrower transferring assets to the counterparty, and the agreements mature daily, the Company’s risk is limited.

The remaining balances in short-term borrowings of $0.4 million at September 30, 2026 and $70.4 million at December 31, 2025, are federal funds purchased, which are unsecured borrowings from other banks, generally on an overnight basis.

Long-term debt at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 includes subordinated notes payable with an aggregate principal amount of $172.5 million, a stated maturity of June 15, 2060, and a fixed rate of 6.25% per annum that qualify as Tier 2 capital of certain regulatory capital ratios. Subject to prior approval by the Federal Reserve, the Company may redeem these notes in whole or in part on any of its quarterly interest payment dates.

In addition, long-term debt at September 30, 2026 includes redeemable fixed-to-floating rate subordinate notes with an aggregate principal amount of $30.0 million, assumed in the OFB transaction. The subordinated notes carried a fixed interest rate of 3.875% per annum until September 1, 2026, at which point the interest rate reset quarterly to the then-current three-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus 322 basis points. The Company redeemed these notes in whole subsequent to quarter-end, on October 1, 2026.

All other long-term debt at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 consists of borrowings associated with tax credit fund activities. Although these borrowings have indicated maturities through 2052, each is expected to be satisfied at the end of the seven-year compliance period for the related tax credit investments.

7. Derivatives

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage risks related to differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments. The Bank also enters into interest rate derivative agreements as a service to certain qualifying customers. The Bank manages a matched book with respect to these customer derivatives in order to minimize its net interest rate risk exposure resulting from such agreements. In addition, the Bank also enters into risk participation agreements under which it may either sell or buy credit risk associated with a customer’s performance under certain interest rate derivative contracts related to loans in which participation interests have been sold to or purchased from other banks.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company is party to various interest rate swap agreements designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges of the Company’s forecasted variable cash flows for pools of variable rate loans. For each agreement, the Company receives interest at a fixed rate and pays interest at a variable rate. The Company has terminated certain interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges prior to maturity. The net cash received/paid for these transactions was recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is being amortized into earnings through the original maturity dates of the respective contracts. The Company expects to reclassify into earnings approximately $20.8 million in pre-tax losses due to the net receipt/payment of interest and amortization on all cash flow hedges within the next twelve months. See Note 8 – Stockholders’ Equity for the impact of cash flow hedges on the consolidated statements of income related to realized gains (losses) reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to net income.

The notional amounts of the active interest rate swap agreements at September 30, 2026 expire as follows: $100 million in 2026; $825 million in 2027; $50 million in 2028; $275 million in 2029; $625 million in 2030; and $75 million in 2031.

Fair Value Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate swaps on securities available for sale

The Company is party to forward-starting fixed payer swaps that convert the latter portion of the term of certain available for sale securities to a floating rate. These derivative instruments are designated as fair value hedges of interest rate risk. This strategy provides the Company with a fixed rate coupon during the front-end unhedged tenor of the bonds and results in a floating rate security during the back-end hedged tenor. At September 30, 2026, these single layer instruments have hedge start dates between February 2025 and July 2026, and maturity dates from March 2030 through March 2031. The change in the fair value of the hedged item attributable to interest rate risk and the net hedge income from effective hedges is presented in interest income along with the change in the fair value of the hedging instrument.

The notional amount of fair value hedges that are effective totaled $359.0 million and $203.5 million at September 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Once effective, fair value hedges synthetically convert the notional portion of the hedged asset to a variable rate over the

life of the hedge that is indexed to the federal funds effective rate, with the resulting net earnings recorded in interest income on the "Securities-taxable" line item on the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The hedged available for sale securities are part of closed portfolios of pre-payable commercial mortgage-backed securities. In accordance with ASC 815, prepayment risk may be excluded when measuring the change in fair value of such hedged items attributable to interest rate risk under the portfolio layer method. At September 30, 2026, the amortized cost basis of the closed portfolio of pre-payable commercial mortgage-backed securities totaled $387.8 million, excluding any basis adjustment. The amount representing the hedged items was $322.7 million, and the basis adjustment associated with those hedged items was a loss of $36.3 million.

The Company terminated one swap agreement designated as a fair value hedge during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and received cash of approximately $1.7 million and also sold the underlying security. The Company terminated one swap agreement designated as a fair value hedge during the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and received cash of approximately $2.3 million.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedges

Customer interest rate derivative program

The Bank enters into interest rate derivative agreements, primarily rate swaps, with commercial banking customers to facilitate their risk management strategies. The Bank enters into offsetting agreements with unrelated financial institutions, thereby mitigating its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. Because the interest rate derivatives associated with this program do not meet hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer derivatives and the offsetting derivatives are recognized directly in earnings.

Risk participation agreements

The Bank also enters into risk participation agreements under which it may either assume or sell credit risk associated with a borrower’s performance under certain interest rate derivative contracts. In those instances where the Bank has assumed credit risk, it is not a direct counterparty to the derivative contract with the borrower and has entered into the risk participation agreement because it is a party to the related loan agreement with the borrower. In those instances in which the Bank has sold credit risk, it is the sole counterparty to the derivative contract with the borrower and has entered into the risk participation agreement because other banks participate in the related loan agreement. The Bank manages its credit risk under risk participation agreements by monitoring the creditworthiness of the borrower based on the Bank’s normal credit review process.

Mortgage banking derivatives

The Bank also enters into certain derivative agreements as part of its mortgage banking activities. These agreements include interest rate lock commitments on prospective residential mortgage loans and forward commitments to sell loans to investors on either a best efforts or a mandatory delivery basis. The Company uses these forward sales commitments, which may include To Be Announced (TBA) security contracts, on the open market to protect the value of its rate locks and mortgage loans held for sale from changes in interest rates and pricing between the origination of the rate lock and the final sale of these loans. These instruments meet the definition of derivative financial instruments and are reflected in other assets and other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, with changes to the fair value recorded in noninterest income within the secondary mortgage market operations line item in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The loans sold on a mandatory basis commit the Company to deliver a specific principal amount of mortgage loans to an investor at a specified price, by a specified date. If the Company fails to deliver the amount of mortgages necessary to fulfill the commitment by the specified date, we may be obligated to pay a pair-off fee, based on then-current market prices, to the investor/counterparty to compensate the investor for the shortfall. Mandatory delivery forward commitments include TBA security contracts on the open market to provide protection against changes in interest rates on the locked mortgage pipeline. The Company expects that mandatory delivery contracts, including TBA security contracts, will experience changes in fair value opposite to the changes in the fair value of derivative loan commitments. Certain assumptions, including pull through rates and rate lock periods, are used in managing the existing and future hedges. The accuracy of underlying assumptions could impact the ultimate effectiveness of any hedging strategies.

Forward commitments under best effort contracts commit the Company to deliver a specific individual mortgage loan to an investor if the loan to the underlying borrower closes. Generally, best efforts cash contracts have no pair-off risk regardless of market movement. The price the investor will pay the seller for an individual loan is specified prior to the loan being funded, generally the same day the Company enters into the interest rate lock commitment with the potential borrower. The Company expects that these best efforts forward loan sale commitments will experience a net neutral shift in fair value with related derivative loan commitments.

27


Table of Contents

 

At the closing of the loan, the rate lock commitment derivative expires and the Company generally records a loan held for sale at fair value under the election of fair value option.

Customer foreign exchange forward contract derivatives

The Company enters into foreign exchange forward contract derivative agreements, primarily forward foreign currency contracts, with commercial banking customers to facilitate their risk management strategies. The Bank manages its risk exposure from such transactions by entering into offsetting agreements with unrelated financial institutions. The Bank has not elected to designate these foreign exchange forward contract derivatives as hedges; as such, changes in the fair value of both the customer derivatives and the offsetting derivatives are recognized directly in earnings.

Visa Class B derivative contract

The Company is a member of Visa USA. In 2018, the Company sold the majority of its Visa Class B holdings, at which time it entered into a derivative agreement with the purchaser whereby the Company will make or receive cash payments whenever the conversion ratio of the Visa Class B shares into Visa Class A shares is adjusted. The conversion ratio changes when Visa deposits funds to a litigation escrow established by Visa to pay settlements for certain litigation, for which Visa is indemnified by Visa USA members. The Company is also required to make periodic financing payments to the purchaser until all of Visa’s covered litigation matters are resolved. Thus, the derivative contract extends until the end of Visa’s covered litigation matters, the timing of which is uncertain.

During the second quarter of 2024 and 2026, Visa allowed Class B holders to convert some but not all of their Class B shares to Class A shares. As a result of these conversion events, the Bank and its counterparty agreed to modify the transaction agreement to reflect the partial exchange and include certain provisions related to conversion rate changes. The conversion plan approved by Visa requires a minimum of 12 months before another exchange event and thus extends the expected time for a full resolution of the matter.

The contract includes a contingent accelerated termination clause based on the credit ratings of the Company. The fair value of the liability associated with this contract was $0.9 million at September 30, 2026 and $1.3 million at December 31, 2025. Refer to Note 16 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments for discussion of the valuation inputs and process for this derivative liability.

Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features

Certain of the Bank’s derivative instruments contain provisions allowing the financial institution counterparty to terminate the contracts in certain circumstances, such as the downgrade of the Bank’s credit ratings below specified levels, a default by the Bank on its indebtedness, or the failure of the Bank to maintain specified minimum regulatory capital ratios or its regulatory status as a

well-capitalized institution. These derivative agreements also contain provisions regarding the posting of collateral by each party. At September 30, 2026, the Company was not in violation of any such provisions. The aggregate fair value of derivative instruments with credit risk-related contingent features that were in a net liability position was $22.7 million and $13.2 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, for which the Company had posted collateral of $22.7 million and $13.0 million, respectively.

Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

The Bank’s derivative instruments with certain counterparties contain legally enforceable netting provisions that allow for net settlement of multiple transactions to a single amount, which may be positive, negative, or zero. Agreements with certain bilateral counterparties require both parties to maintain collateral in the event that the fair values of derivative instruments exceed established exposure thresholds. For centrally cleared derivatives, the Company is subject to initial margin posting and daily variation margin exchange with the central clearinghouses. Offsetting information in regards to all derivative assets and liabilities, including accrued interest, subject to these master netting agreements at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 is presented in the following tables.

8. Stockholders’ Equity

Common Shares Outstanding

Common shares outstanding excludes treasury shares totaling 13.4 million and 10.7 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, with a first-in-first-out cost basis of $717.1 million and $502.9 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Shares outstanding also excludes unvested restricted share awards totaling 5,225 at September 30, 2026 and 8,520 at December 31, 2025.

Stock Buyback Programs

On December 10, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a stock buyback program, effective January 1, 2026, whereby the Company is authorized to repurchase up to 5% of the shares of the Company's common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2025, or approximately 4.1 million shares, through the program’s expiration date of December 31, 2026. The program allows the Company to repurchase its common shares in the open market, by block purchase, through accelerated share repurchase programs, in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, in one or more transactions, from time to time, depending on market conditions and other factors, and in accordance with applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company is not obligated to purchase any shares under this program, and the Board of Directors has the ability to terminate or amend the program at any time prior to the expiration date. During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company repurchased 3.1 million shares of its outstanding common stock at an average cost of $71.07 per share, inclusive of commissions, under this program. The Company has accrued $2.0 million of estimated excise tax associated with share repurchases during the nine months ended September 30, 2026.

Prior to its completion in December 2025, the Company had in place a stock repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors on December 9, 2024, whereby the Company was authorized to repurchase up to 5% of the Company's common stock outstanding at December 31, 2024, or approximately 4.3 million shares, with the same terms described above through the program's expiration date of December 31, 2026. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company repurchased 1.8 million shares of its common stock at an average cost of $56.80 per share, inclusive of commissions, under this program.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income or Loss (AOCI) is reported as a component of stockholders’ equity. AOCI can include, among other items, unrealized holding gains and losses on securities available for sale (AFS), including the Company’s share of unrealized gains and losses reported by a partnership accounted for under the equity method, gains and losses associated with pension or other post-retirement benefits that are not recognized immediately as a component of net periodic benefit cost, and gains and losses on derivative instruments that are designated as, and qualify as, cash flow hedges. Net unrealized gains and losses on AFS securities reclassified as securities held to maturity (HTM) also continue to be reported as a component of AOCI and will be amortized over the estimated remaining life of the securities as an adjustment to interest income. Subject to certain thresholds, unrealized losses on employee benefit plans will be reclassified into income as pension and post-retirement costs are recognized over the remaining service period of plan participants. Accumulated gains or losses on cash flow hedges of variable rate loans described in Note 7 - Derivatives will be reclassified into income over the life of the hedge. Accumulated other comprehensive loss resulting from terminated interest rate swaps are being amortized over the remaining maturities of the designated instruments. Gains and losses within AOCI are net of deferred income taxes, where applicable.

11. Earnings Per Common Share

The Company calculates earnings per common share using the two-class method. The two-class method allocates net income to each class of common stock and participating security according to common dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Participating securities consist of nonvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents.

A summary of the information used in the computation of earnings per common share follows.

Potential common shares consist of nonvested performance-based awards, nonvested restricted stock units, and restricted share awards deferred under the Company’s nonqualified deferred compensation plan. These potential common shares do not enter into the calculation of diluted earnings per share if the impact would be antidilutive, i.e., increase earnings per share or reduce a loss per share. The weighted average of potentially dilutive common shares that were anti-dilutive totaled 1,222 and 4,656 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, respectively, and 5,411 and 4,092 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively, and were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the respective periods.

12. Segment Reporting

U.S. GAAP requires that information be reported about a company’s operating segments using a “management approach.” Reportable segments are identified in these standards as those revenue-producing components for which discrete financial information is produced internally and which are subject to evaluation by our chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources to segments. The Company has identified the Capital Committee as the chief operating decision maker. Consistent with the Company’s strategy that is focused on providing a consistent package of banking products and services across all markets, the Company has identified its overall banking operations as its only reportable segment. There have been no changes in the basis of segmentation or basis of measurement of segment profit or loss since our last annual filing as of December 31, 2025.

Because the overall banking operations comprise substantially all of the Company’s consolidated operations, no separate financial segment disclosures are presented. The significant segment expenses included in net income are presented in the financial statement captions shown on the face of the Consolidated Statements of Income and in Note 10 – Other Noninterest Expense, and align materially with those reported to the Capital Committee. There are no other segment items that are required to reconcile expenses included in net income to significant expenses reviewed by the Capital Committee.

13. Retirement Plans

The Company offers a qualified defined benefit pension plan, the Hancock Whitney Corporation Pension Plan and Trust Agreement (“Pension Plan”), that covers certain eligible associates and is closed to new entrants. The Company makes contributions to the Pension Plan in amounts sufficient to meet funding requirements set forth in federal employee benefit and tax laws, plus such additional amounts as the Company may determine to be appropriate. The Company made no contributions to the Pension Plan during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025, and does not anticipate being required to make a contribution during 2026. The Company also sponsors a nonqualified defined benefit plan covering certain associates, under which accrued benefits were frozen and no future benefits are accrued under this plan.

The Company sponsors defined benefit post-retirement plans for certain associates that provide health care and life insurance benefits. These plans are closed to new entrants.

The following table shows the components of net periodic benefit cost included in expense for the periods indicated.

14. Share-Based Payment Arrangements

The Company maintains incentive compensation plans that incorporate share-based payment arrangements for associates and directors. These plans have been approved by the Company's shareholders. Descriptions of these plans were included in Note 19 to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

The Company’s restricted and performance-based share awards to certain employees and directors are subject to service requirements. A summary of the status of the Company’s nonvested restricted stock units and restricted and performance-based share awards at September 30, 2026 is presented in the following table.

At September 30, 2026, there was $59.0 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested restricted and performance share awards and units expected to vest in the future. This compensation is expected to be recognized in expense over a weighted average period of 3.1 years. The total fair value of shares that vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $21.2 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company granted 479,717 restricted stock units (RSUs) to certain eligible employees. The holders of unvested RSUs have no rights as a shareholder of the Company, including voting or dividend rights. The Company has elected to award dividend equivalents on each RSU not deferred under the Company's nonqualified deferred compensation plan. Such dividend equivalents are forfeited should the employee terminate employment prior to the vesting of the RSU.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Company granted to key members of executive management 25,278 performance share awards subject to a total shareholder return (TSR) performance metric with a grant date fair value of $70.83 per share. The fair value of the performance share units subject to TSR at the grant date was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation method. The number of performance share units subject to TSR that ultimately vest at the end of the three-year performance period, if any, will be based on the relative rank of the Company’s three-year TSR among the TSRs of a peer group of 49 regional banks. The Company also granted 24,535 performance share awards subject to a return on average assets (ROAA) performance metric and 24,535 performance share awards subject to a return on average tangible common equity (ROATCE) performance metric with a grant date fair value of $60.08 per share for both performance share awards. The number of performance shares subject to ROAA and ROATCE that ultimately vest, if any, will be based on the rank of the Company’s three-year ROAA and ROATCE relative to the KBW Regional Bank index. The maximum number of performance share units that could vest is 200% of the target award. Compensation expense for these performance shares is recognized on a straight-line basis over the three-year service period.

15. Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Bank enters into financial instruments, such as commitments to extend credit and letters of credit, to meet the financing needs of its customers. Such instruments are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements until they are funded, although they expose the Bank to varying degrees of credit risk and interest rate risk in much the same way as funded loans. Under regulatory capital guidelines, the Company and Bank must include unfunded commitments meeting certain criteria in risk-weighted capital calculations.

Commitments to extend credit include revolving commercial credit lines, nonrevolving loan commitments issued mainly to finance the acquisition and development or construction of real property or equipment, and credit card and personal credit lines. The availability of funds under commercial credit lines and loan commitments generally depends on whether the borrower continues to meet credit standards established in the underlying contract and other contractual conditions. Loan commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee by the borrower. Credit card and personal credit lines are generally subject to cancellation if the borrower’s credit quality deteriorates. A number of commercial and personal credit lines are used only partially or, in some cases, not at all before they expire, and the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements of the Company.

A substantial majority of the letters of credit are standby agreements that obligate the Bank to fulfill a customer’s financial commitments to a third party if the customer is unable to perform. The Bank issues standby letters of credit primarily to provide credit

enhancement to its customers’ other commercial or public financing arrangements and to help them demonstrate financial capacity to vendors of essential goods and services.

The contractual amounts of these instruments reflect the Company’s exposure to credit risk. The Company undertakes the same credit evaluation in making loan commitments and assuming conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments and may require collateral or other credit support. The Company had a reserve for unfunded lending commitments of $36.1 million and $33.9 million at September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

Legal Proceedings

The Company is party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe that loss contingencies, if any, arising from pending litigation and regulatory matters will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or liquidity of the Company.

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Special Assessment

In November 2023, the FDIC approved a final rule to implement a special deposit insurance assessment to recover losses to the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) arising from the full protection of uninsured depositors under the systemic risk exception following the receiverships of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank in the spring of 2023. To-date, the Company has expensed $27.6 million related to this special assessment based on loss estimate information provided by the FDIC.

The loss estimates resulting from the failures of these institutions may be subject to further change pending the projected and actual outcome of loss share agreements, joint ventures, and outstanding litigation. The exact amount of losses incurred will not be determined until the FDIC terminates the receiverships of these banks; therefore, the Company's exact exposure for FDIC special assessment remains unknown.

16. Fair Value Measurements

The FASB defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The FASB’s guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to these valuation techniques used to measure fair value, giving preference to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs such as a reporting entity’s own data (level 3). Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, observable inputs other than quoted prices, such as interest rates and yield curves, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Securities classified as level 2 include obligations of U.S. Government agencies and U.S. Government-sponsored agencies, including U.S. Treasury securities, residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations that are issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies, and state and municipal bonds. The level 2 fair value measurements for investment securities are obtained quarterly from a third-party pricing service that uses industry-standard pricing models. Substantially all of the model inputs are observable in the marketplace or can be supported by observable data.

The Company invests only in securities of investment grade quality with a targeted duration, for the overall portfolio, generally between two and five and a half years. Company policies generally limit U.S. investments to agency securities and municipal securities determined to be investment grade according to an internally generated score which generally includes a rating of not less than “Baa” or its equivalent by a nationally recognized statistical rating agency.

Loans held for sale consist of residential mortgage loans carried under the fair value option. The fair value for these instruments is classified as level 2 based on market prices obtained from potential buyers.

36


Table of Contents

 

For the Company’s derivative financial instruments designated as hedges and those under the customer interest rate program, the fair value is obtained from a third-party pricing service that uses an industry-standard discounted cash flow model that relies on inputs, overnight index swap rate curves and SOFR swap curves (where applicable); all observable in the marketplace. To comply with the accounting guidance, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated in the fair values to appropriately reflect nonperformance risk for both the Company and the counterparties. Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value these derivative instruments fall within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit value adjustments utilize level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads. The Company has determined that the impact of the credit valuation adjustments is not significant to the overall valuation of these derivatives. As a result, the Company has classified its derivative valuations for these instruments in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s policy is to measure counterparty credit risk quarterly for derivative instruments, which are all subject to master netting arrangements, consistent with how market participants would price the net risk exposure at the measurement date.

The Company also has certain derivative instruments associated with the Bank’s mortgage-banking activities. These derivative instruments include interest rate lock commitments on prospective residential mortgage loans and forward commitments to sell these loans to investors on a best efforts delivery basis and To Be Announced securities for mandatory delivery contracts. The fair value of these derivative instruments is measured using observable market prices for similar instruments and is classified as a level 2 measurement.

The Company’s level 3 liability consists of a derivative contract with the purchaser of 192,163 shares of Visa Class B common stock. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company retains the risks associated with the ultimate conversion of the Visa Class B common shares into shares of Visa Class A common stock, such that the counterparty will be compensated for any dilutive adjustments to the conversion ratio and the Company will be compensated for any anti-dilutive adjustments to the ratio. The agreement also requires periodic payments by the Company to the counterparty calculated by reference to the market price of Visa Class A common shares at the time of sale and a fixed rate of interest that stepped up once after the eighth scheduled quarterly payment. The fair value of the liability is determined using a discounted cash flow methodology. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement are the Company’s own assumptions about estimated changes in the conversion rate of the Visa Class B common shares into Visa Class A common shares, the date on which such conversion is expected to occur and the estimated growth rate of the Visa Class A common share price. Refer to Note 7 – Derivatives for information about the derivative contract with the counterparty.

The Company believes its valuation methods for its assets and liabilities carried at fair value are appropriate; however, the use of different methodologies or assumptions, particularly as applied to level 3 assets and liabilities, could have a material effect on the computation of their estimated fair values.

Changes in Level 3 Fair Value Measurements and Quantitative Information about Level 3 Fair Value Measurements

The nominal changes in the fair value of level 3 financial instruments are due to the net impact of cash settlements and losses included in earnings. The level 3 fair value measurement was based on discounted cash flows, with a Visa Class B common share conversion ratio range of 1.55x to 1.54x and an estimated time to resolution of 12 to 24 months. The range of sensitivities that management utilized in its fair value calculations is deemed acceptable in the industry with respect to the identified financial instrument.

The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers between valuation hierarchy levels as of the end of a reporting period.

Fair Value of Assets Measured on a Nonrecurring Basis

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Collateral-dependent loans individually evaluated for credit loss are measured at the fair value of the underlying collateral based on independent third-party appraisals that take into consideration market-based information such as recent sales activity for similar assets in the property’s market.

Other real estate owned and foreclosed assets, including both foreclosed property and surplus banking property, are level 3 assets that are adjusted to fair value, less estimated selling costs, upon transfer from loans or property and equipment. Subsequently, other real estate owned and foreclosed assets are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value less estimated selling costs. Fair values are determined by sales agreement or third-party appraisals as discounted for estimated selling costs, information from comparable sales, and marketability of the assets.

The fair value information presented below is not as of the period end, rather it was as of the date the fair value adjustment was recorded during the twelve months for each of the dates presented below, and excludes nonrecurring fair value measurements of assets no longer on the balance sheet.

Accounting guidance from the FASB requires the disclosure of estimated fair value information about certain on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments, including those financial instruments that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis. The significant methods and assumptions used by the Company to estimate the fair value of financial instruments are discussed below.

Cash, Short-Term Investments and Federal Funds Sold – For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Securities – The fair value measurement for securities available for sale is discussed earlier in this note. The same measurement techniques were applied to the valuation of securities held to maturity.

Loans, Net – The fair value measurement for certain collateral dependent loans that are individually evaluated for credit loss was described earlier in this note. For the remaining portfolio, fair values were generally determined by discounting scheduled cash flows using discount rates determined with reference to current market rates at which loans with similar terms would be made to borrowers of similar credit quality.

Loans Held For Sale – These loans are either carried under the fair value option or at the lower of cost or market. Given the short duration of these instruments, the carrying amount is considered a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Deposits – The accounting guidance requires that the fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest-bearing demand deposits, and interest-bearing checking and savings accounts, be assigned fair values equal to amounts payable upon demand (carrying amounts). The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Federal Funds Purchased and Securities Sold under Agreements to Repurchase – For these short-term liabilities, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Short-Term FHLB Borrowings – At September 30, 2026, short-term FHLB borrowings consisted of six short-term fixed-rate borrowings for which the fair value was estimated by discounting contractual cash flows using current market rates at which borrowing with similar terms could be obtained. At December 31, 2025, FHLB borrowings consisted of one short-term fixed rate borrowing (two calendar days outstanding); as such, the carrying amount of the instrument was a reasonable fair value.

Long-Term Debt – The fair value is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows using current market rates at which debt with similar terms could be obtained.

Derivative Financial Instruments – The fair value measurement for derivative financial instruments is described earlier in this note.

The following tables present the estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments by fair value hierarchy levels and the corresponding carrying amounts.

17. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Standards Adopted during the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2026

In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-08, “Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans,” to expand the population of acquired assets subject to the gross-up approach in Topic 326. Under the amendments in this update, loans (excluding credit cards) acquired without credit deterioration that are deemed “seasoned” are considered purchased seasoned loans and accounted for using the gross-up approach at acquisition. Non-purchased credit deteriorated loans (excluding credit cards) are seasoned if they are acquired in a business combination or were purchased at least 90 days after origination and the acquirer was not involved in the origination of the loans. Under the gross-up approach, the fair value discount is bifurcated between the credit and noncredit components, and the credit portion of the fair value discount is added to the initial amortized cost basis with a corresponding increase in the allowance for credit losses at the date of acquisition. Any noncredit premium or discount resulting from acquiring these seasoned loans is allocated to each individual asset and accreted or amortized to interest income using the effective yield method. Prior to this amendment, all non-purchased credit deteriorated loans acquired were recorded at the estimated fair value of the loan at acquisition, with the estimated allowance for credit loss recorded as a provision for credit losses through earnings in the period in which the acquisition occurred. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The amendments should be applied prospectively to loans that are acquired on or after the initial application date. Early adoption is permitted in an interim or annual reporting period in which financial statements have not yet been issued or made available for issuance. The Company elected to early adopt this standard on January 1, 2026. On August 1, 2026, the Company completed its acquisition of OFB Bancshares, Inc., which resulted in the recording of $21.6 million of allowance for loan losses on purchased seasoned loans through the gross up method that would have been recorded through a provision for credit loss expense if the standard had not been early adopted.

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40),” to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses in commonly presented expense captions. The amendments in this update require disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses in the notes to financial statements. Disclosure requirements also include a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively, among other items. An entity is not precluded from providing additional voluntary disclosures that may provide investors with additional decision-useful information. This update, as amended, is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this update should be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this update, or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently assessing the provisions of this guidance. As the update contains only amendments to disclosure requirements, adoption will have no impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software,” to modernize the accounting for software costs that are accounted for under Subtopic 350-40. The amendments in this update remove all references to prescriptive and sequential software development stages in Subtopic 350-40 and instead require an entity to begin capitalizing software costs when both of the following occur: (1) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and (2) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function. The amendment also provides factors to consider when evaluating probable-to-complete recognition thresholds and specifies that the disclosures in Subtopic 360-10, “Property, Plant and Equipment,” are required for all capitalized internal-use software. Further, the amendment supersedes website development costs guidance and incorporates the recognition requirements in this subtopic. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. Entities may apply a prospective transition approach, a modified transition approach or a retrospective approach. The Company is currently assessing the provisions of this guidance but does not expect adoption to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-09, “Derivative and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting Improvements,” to clarify certain aspects of the guidance on hedge accounting and to address several incremental hedge accounting issues arising from the global reference rate reform initiative. The update addresses five issues: (1) the ability to group individual forecasted transactions in a cash flow hedge, modifying the term “shared risk exposure” to “similar risk exposure;” (2) the ability to apply cash flow hedge accounting to “choose your rate” debt instruments; (3) the application of cash flow hedge accounting to forecasted purchases and sales of nonfinancial assets; (4) the use of net written options has hedging instruments; and (5) the mechanics of assessing hedge effectiveness for foreign-currency-denominated dual hedge strategies. This update is effective for public business entities in the

interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, with early adoptions permitted. Entities should apply the amendments on a prospective basis for all hedging relationships. An entity may elect to adopt the amendments for hedging relationships that exist as of the date of adoption. Upon adoption, entities are permitted to modify certain critical terms of certain existing hedging relationships without dedesignating the hedge. The Company does not expect adoption to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11, “Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow Scope Improvements," to improve interim reporting guidance in Topic 270 by improving the navigability of the required interim disclosures, clarifying when that guidance is applicable, and providing additional guidance on what disclosures should be provided in interim reporting periods. This update reorganizes and clarifies interim reporting guidance without expanding disclosure requirements. Key provisions include clarification of entities in the scope of ASC 270, updates to the form and content requirements for condensed interim financial statements, and a new disclosure principle requiring disclosure of material events since year-end. This update is effective for public entities for interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this update can be applied either prospectively or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently assessing the provisions of this guidance. As the update contains only clarification of disclosure requirements, adoption will have no impact on the Company's consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

OVERVIEW

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations includes non-GAAP measures used to describe our performance. These non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered on a standalone basis or as a substitute for analyses of financial condition and results as reported under GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized and therefore, it may not be possible to compare these measures with other companies that present measures having the same or similar names. These disclosures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP.

A reconciliation of those measures to GAAP measures are provided in the Consolidated Financial Results table later in this item. The following is a summary of these non-GAAP measures and an explanation as to why they are deemed useful.

Consistent with the provisions of subpart 229.1400 of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation S-K, “Disclosures by Bank and Savings and Loan Registrants,” we present net interest income, net interest margin and efficiency ratios on a fully taxable equivalent (te) basis. The te basis adjusts for the tax-favored status of net interest income from certain loans and investments using a statutory federal tax rate of 21% to increase tax-exempt interest income to a taxable equivalent basis. We believe this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income, and that it enhances comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources.

We present certain additional non-GAAP financial measures to assist the reader with a better understanding of the Company’s performance period over period, and to provide investors with assistance in understanding the success management has experienced in executing its strategic initiatives. The Company highlights certain items that are outside of our principal business and/or are not indicative of forward-looking trends in supplemental disclosure items below our GAAP financial data and presents certain "Adjusted" ratios that exclude these disclosed items. These adjusted ratios provide management and the reader with a measure that may be more indicative of forward-looking trends in our business, as well as demonstrate the effects of significant gains or losses and changes.

We define Adjusted Pre-Provision Net Revenue as net income excluding provision expense and income tax expense, plus the taxable equivalent adjustment (as defined above), less supplemental disclosure items (as defined above). Management believes that adjusted pre-provision net revenue is a useful financial measure because it enables investors and others to assess the Company’s ability to generate capital to cover credit losses through a credit cycle. We define Adjusted Revenue as net interest income (te) and noninterest income less supplemental disclosure items. We define Adjusted Noninterest Expense as noninterest expense less supplemental disclosure items. We define our Efficiency Ratio as noninterest expense to total net interest income (te) and noninterest income, excluding amortization of purchased intangibles and supplemental disclosure items, if applicable. Management believes adjusted revenue, adjusted noninterest expense and the efficiency ratio are useful measures as they provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhance comparability with prior periods.

Acquisition of OFB Bancshares, Inc.

 

On August 1, 2026, we acquired OFB Bancshares, Inc., parent company of One Florida Bank, in an all-cash transaction. We acquired net assets of approximately $165.6 million, consisting primarily of the following:

•
Loans of $1.7 billion, net of a $30.3 million non-credit discount and a $21.9 million allowance for loan loss
•
Cash, short-term investments and securities available for sale totaling $335.7 million
•
Core deposit intangible asset of $53.1 million
•
Deposit liabilities of $1.9 billion, including $0.4 billion of noninterest-bearing and $1.5 billion of interest-bearing deposits

 

Total consideration for the net assets acquired was $377.6 million, resulting in $189.5 million of goodwill.

One Florida Bank operated five financial centers in the greater Orlando, Florida area and one in the Florida Panhandle. The acquisition enhances our existing financial center footprint by establishing a meaningful presence in the high growth Orlando market and is expected to be immediately accretive to earnings per share, exclusive of one-time transaction costs of approximately $30.4 million incurred in the third quarter of 2026. Full integration and system conversion activities are expected to be finalized in the fourth quarter of 2026. Refer to Note 2 - Acquisition in Part I, Item I of this document for additional information.

Securities Portfolio Restructuring

In January 2026, we executed a restructuring of our available for sale securities portfolio whereby we sold securities with an amortized cost of $1.5 billion and average yield of 2.49% and reinvested the $1.4 billion of proceeds with the purchase of securities with an average yield of 4.35%. We anticipate a 50 month payback period to cover the $98.5 million pre-tax loss associated with the sale, or approximately $0.95 per diluted share after tax. The restructure is expected to contribute approximately $23.8 million to net interest income, or $0.23 per diluted share, resulting in increases of 32 basis points (bps) to the securities portfolio yield and 7 bps to net interest margin on an annual basis.

Current Economic Environment

The U.S. economy remained resilient during the third quarter of 2026, characterized by moderate economic growth and a stable labor market, but with inflation that continued to run above the Federal Reserve's long-term target. Economic growth during the third quarter of 2026 was stronger than many forecasters expected earlier in the year. Real gross domestic product (GDP) for the third quarter of 2026 was 3.4% on an annual basis, supported by resilient consumer spending, strong business investment, and continued spending related to artificial intelligence infrastructure and technology developments, partially offset by a decrease in exports. The labor market displayed overall stability, showing signs of slower hiring, however, the unemployment rate remained in a range of 4.1% and 4.2% throughout the quarter. Inflation remained the principal economic challenge. Elevated energy prices and broader demand pressures continue to influence inflation, with the consumer price index reaching 3.7% on an annualized basis in September 2026, well above the Federal Reserve’s target of 2%. The Federal Reserve tightened monetary policy by raising its benchmark interest rate by 25 basis points at its September 2026 meeting, bringing the target range to 3.75%-4.00%. Federal Reserve officials emphasized that price stability continued to be its central policy objective.

In the third quarter of 2026, conditions in the financial services industry remained generally favorable despite persistent economic pressures and uncertainty with respect to fiscal and monetary policy. We experienced solid loan production and deposit growth beyond those from the OFB acquisition, reflecting what we believe to be a general resilience in our local markets.

Economic Outlook

We utilize economic forecasts produced by Moody’s Analytics (Moody’s) that provide various scenarios to assist in the development of our economic outlook. This outlook discussion utilizes the September 2026 Moody’s forecast, the most current available at September 30, 2026. The forecasts are anchored on a baseline forecast scenario, which Moody’s defines as the “most likely outcome” of where the economy is headed based on current conditions. Several upside and downside scenarios are produced that are derived from the baseline scenario and incorporate varying degrees of favorable and unfavorable adjustments to economic indicators and circumstances as compared to the baseline.

 

The baseline scenario maintains a mostly optimistic tenor with respect to economic outcomes, though the outlook has weakened somewhat from previously published scenarios. Key variables underlying the September 2026 baseline forecast include the following: (1) the likelihood of a near-term negotiated settlement between the US and Iran has decreased, and, as a result, crude oil prices will remain elevated for longer; (2) the Fed funds target rate will stay within the range of 3.5% to 3.75% until the end of the decade, reflecting short-term inflation pressures from the Iran war; (3) the effective tariff rate of about 8% is expected to remain for the duration of the current administration before eventually falling back to about 2% late in the decade or early in the next; (4) the combination of a slowdown in labor force growth and monthly job growth will remain a headwind to the labor market, prompting the unemployment rate to resume a gradual climb, peaking at 4.7% in the second half of 2027; (5) GDP is forecasted at 2.2% in 2026, slowing slightly to 2.0% in 2027 and 2.1% in 2028 before rebounding to 2.5% in 2029; (6) the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield is forecasted to average 4.6% in the third quarter of 2026 and remain near that level through the end of the decade due to elevated inflation and fiscal uncertainty.

The S-2 scenario presents a downside alternative to the baseline. The S-2 scenario assumes the effective tariff rate increases to about 11% and remains elevated through the end of 2028. The impacts on the economy from tariffs, deportations and still-elevated oil prices as a result of the conflict with Iran are worse than expected, causing inflation to rise. Further, there is longer and farther-reaching disturbance from other geopolitical conflict. The scenario assumes the unemployment rate will rise considerably to a peak of 7.2% in the third quarter of 2027 and remain elevated before returning to full employment in early 2029. The combination of higher oil prices, rising inflation, tariffs, still elevated interest rates and reduced credit availability causes the U.S. economy to fall into a mild recession beginning in the fourth quarter of 2026 that lasts for three quarters, with a peak-to-trough decline in GDP of 1.1% and the stock market contracting 22%. The recession and rising inflation prompts the Federal Reserve to lower its benchmark interest rate slightly below what is forecasted in the baseline scenario before making more significant cuts as inflation subsides.

Management has deemed certain assumptions underlying the baseline scenario and the downside S-2 scenario to have an equal likelihood to occur in the near term, and, as such, the baseline and S-2 scenarios were each given probability weightings of 50% in the calculation of our allowance for credit losses at September 30, 2026, consistent with the weightings used in the calculation of allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2026.

 

The credit loss outlook for our portfolio as a whole has not changed materially since June 30, 2026. We continue to closely monitor our portfolio for customers that are sensitive to prolonged inflation, the elevated interest rate environment, tariffs, labor market conditions and/or other economic circumstances that may impact credit quality.

 

Rapidly evolving changes in geopolitical, fiscal and other policies continue to drive heightened uncertainty as to the impact on the U.S. and global economies. The duration and scope of the conflict in the Middle East continues to play a pivotal role in economic conditions. The impact of persisting inflation, the potential for a softening labor market and the Federal Reserve's actions to counter those effects, as well as to respond to other economic concerns, could reduce economic growth in the near term. The full extent of the impact of the conflict in the Middle East and other influential factors are uncertain and may have an adverse effect on the U.S. economy, including the possibility of an economic recession or slower growth in the near or midterm.

Highlights of the Third Quarter 2026

We reported net income for the third quarter of 2026 of $110.1 million, or $1.36 per diluted common share, compared to $127.0 million, or $1.55 per diluted common share, in the second quarter of 2026 and $127.5 million, or $1.49 per diluted common share, in the third quarter of 2025. The third quarter of 2026 includes supplemental disclosure items attributable to the acquisition of OFB Bancshares, Inc. (OFB) totaling $30.4 million pre-tax, or $0.30 per diluted share after tax. There were no supplemental disclosure items in the second quarter of 2026 or the third quarter of 2025.

Third quarter 2026 results compared to second quarter 2026:

•
Net income of $110.1 million, or $1.36 per diluted share; includes $30.4 million of acquisition-related expenses
•
Adjusted pre-provision net revenue, a non-GAAP measure, totaled $189.3 million, up $11.1 million, or 6%
•
Period-end loans totaled $26.5 billion, up $2.0 billion, or 8%; includes $1.7 billion of loans acquired from OFB
•
Period-end deposits totaled $32.2 billion, up $2.5 billion, or 9%; includes $1.9 billion of deposits assumed from OFB
•
Criticized commercial loans decreased while total nonaccrual loans increased; annualized net charge-offs to average loans was unchanged at 0.16%
•
Allowance for credit losses coverage to total loans remained solid at 1.42%, unchanged from June 30, 2026
•
Net interest margin of 3.61%, up 5 basis points (bps)
•
Tangible common equity ratio of 8.05%, down 173 bps; common equity tier 1 ratio of 11.57%, down 162 bps; and total risk-based capital ratio of 13.26%, down 172 bps
•
Efficiency ratio, a non-GAAP measure, improved to 54.46%, compared to 55.31%

Our results for the third quarter of 2026 again reflect a period of strong performance and enhanced shareholder value. Our acquisition of OFB, completed on August 1, 2026, delivered approximately $2 billion of balance sheet growth and enhanced our ability to bring our relationship-based approach to banking to customers across an expanded footprint in the Central Florida area. We experienced solid organic deposit and loan growth during the third quarter, reflecting continued progress on our multi-year growth plan. Adjusted pre-provision net revenue grew and our efficiency ratio improved. Credit metrics remained stable and we maintained a robust allowance for credit losses coverage of 1.42%. We also returned capital to shareholders with the repurchase of 1.0 million shares of our common stock, bringing year-to-date repurchases to 3.1 million shares. Our capital ratios remain strong and reflect capital deployed for both inorganic and organic growth, return to shareholders and the impact of the rising interest rate environment. We believe our solid balance sheet, strong customer relationships and disciplined execution position us well to deliver on our objectives for the remainder of this year and over the longer term.

(a)
For analytical purposes, management adjusts interest income and net interest income for tax-exempt items to a taxable equivalent basis using a federal income tax rate of 21%.
(b)
The tangible common equity ratio is common stockholders’ equity less intangible assets divided by total assets less intangible assets.
(c)
The efficiency ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure, is noninterest expense to total net interest (te) and noninterest income, excluding amortization of purchased intangibles and supplemental disclosure items.
(d)
Refer to the non-GAAP financial measures section of this analysis for a discussion of these measures.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income

Net interest income (te) for the third quarter of 2026 totaled $314.9 million, up $19.7 million, or 7%, from the second quarter of 2026, and $897.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026, up $63.2 million, or 8%, from the same period in 2025.

The $19.7 million increase in net interest income (te) from the second quarter of 2026 is comprised of an increase in interest income (te) of $33.5 million that was partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $13.8 million. The acquisition of OFB contributed approximately $22.8 million of interest income, inclusive of $3.3 million of accretion of the fair value discount, and $7.9 million of interest expense. Outside of the contributions from the OFB acquisition, the increase in interest income (te) was driven primarily by increases in yields on securities and loans, organic loan growth and the impact of an additional accrual day. The increase in interest expense from our legacy operation was driven primarily by increases in the average balance and cost of interest-bearing deposits and the impact of an additional accrual day, partially offset by a decrease in average short-term borrowings. The net interest margin for the

third quarter of 2026 was 3.61%, up 5 bps from the second quarter of 2026, due in part to the acquisition of OFB, including accretion. The increase in net interest margin also reflects higher yields on securities and loans and lower average short-term borrowings, partially offset by growth in and the rate paid on interest-bearing deposits.

 

The $63.2 million increase in net interest income (te) for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 from the same period in 2025 is comprised of a $52.7 million increase in interest income (te) and a $10.5 million decrease in interest expense. The acquisition of OFB contributed approximately $22.8 million of interest income, inclusive of accretion, and $7.9 million of interest expense. Outside of the contributions from the OFB acquisition, the increase in interest income (te) was primarily attributable to higher yield on the securities portfolio and loan growth that was partially offset by a decline in yields on loans and short-term investments. The decrease in interest expense was driven by a decline in the cost of interest-bearing deposits, reflective of interest rate movement and a favorable shift in the mix within interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by increases in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits and short-term borrowings. The net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was 3.57%, up 10 bps from the same period in 2025, driven in part by the acquisition of OFB, including accretion, and also by a decrease in the rate paid on interest-bearing deposits, an increase in the yield on securities, and loan growth, partially offset by a decline in the loan yield, growth in interest-bearing deposits, and an increase in average short-term borrowings. The improvement in the securities yield is due in part to the portfolio restructure in the first quarter of 2026.

The following tables detail the components of our net interest income (te) and net interest margin.

Provision for Credit Losses

During the third quarter of 2026, we recorded a provision for credit losses of $16.1 million, compared to $13.8 million in the second quarter of 2026. The provision for credit losses in the third quarter of 2026 included net charge-offs of $10.2 million and a reserve build of $5.9 million, including $1.0 million attributable to a provision for unfunded commitments assumed in the acquisition of OFB, identified as a supplemental disclosure item. The provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 2026 included net charge-offs of $9.4 million and a reserve build of $4.4 million. The provision for credit losses in both periods reflect mostly stable credit quality and modest builds attributable to loan growth.

Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans in the third quarter of 2026 were 0.16%, unchanged from the second quarter of 2026. Net charge-offs in the third quarter of 2026 included $7.3 million in the commercial portfolio, $2.5 million in the consumer portfolio and $0.4 million in the residential mortgage portfolio. Net charge-offs in the second quarter of 2026 included $6.6 million in the commercial portfolio, $2.7 million in the consumer portfolio and $0.1 million in the residential mortgage portfolio.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we recorded a provision for credit losses of $43.0 million compared to $38.0 million for the same period in 2025. The provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 included net charge-offs of $30.8 million and a reserve build of $12.2 million, including the $1.0 million supplemental disclosure item described above. The provision for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 included net charge-offs of $39.4 million and a reserve

release of $1.4 million. Net charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 were 0.17% of average loans, comprised of net charge-offs of $21.4 million in the commercial portfolio, $8.7 million in the consumer portfolio and $0.7 million in the residential mortgage portfolio. Net charge-offs for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were 0.23% of average loans, comprised of net charge-offs of $29.2 million in the commercial portfolio, $10.1 million in the consumer portfolio, and $0.1 million in the residential mortgage portfolio.

The discussion labeled "Allowance for Credit Losses and Asset Quality" that appears later in this Item provides additional information on these changes and on general credit quality.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income totaled $107.0 million for the third quarter of 2026, down $1.3 million, or 1%, from the second quarter of 2026, driven primarily by declines in secondary mortgage market operations, trust fees and investment and annuity fees, partially offset by increases in service charges on deposits and other miscellaneous income. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, noninterest income totaled $222.8 million, down $76.5 million from the same period in 2025. Included in noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was a $98.6 million loss identified as a supplemental disclosure item attributable to the restructuring of the available for sales securities portfolio. Excluding the supplemental disclosure item, noninterest income was up $22.1 million, or 7%, from the same period in 2025, with increases across most lines. A detailed discussion of noninterest income variances follows.

The components of noninterest income are presented in the following table for the indicated periods.

Service charges on deposit accounts include consumer, business, and corporate deposit account servicing fees, as well as nonsufficient funds fees on non-consumer accounts, overdraft and overdraft protection fees, and other customer transaction-related fees. Service charges on deposits totaled $27.1 million for the third quarter of 2026, up $1.2 million, or 5%, from the second quarter of 2026. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, service charges on deposits totaled $78.9 million, up $5.3 million, or 7%, from the same period in 2025. The increases in service charges on deposits for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 include a $0.2 million contribution from deposits assumed in the OFB acquisition. Outside of the contribution from OFB, both the linked-quarter and year-over-year increases in service charges on deposit accounts were driven largely by increases in commercial analysis fees and consumer, small business and commercial overdraft fees.

Trust fee income represents revenue generated from a full range of trust services, including asset management and custody services provided to individuals, businesses and institutions. Trust fees totaled $25.0 million for the third quarter of 2026, down $1.1 million, or 4%, from the second quarter of 2026, driven in part by seasonal tax preparation fees earned in the second quarter of 2026. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, trust fees totaled $75.6 million, up $10.6 million, or 16%, from the same period in 2025. The year-over-year increase is mostly attributable to personal trust, resulting from both a full period contribution from the Sabal acquisition and organic and market value-driven growth in our legacy business.

Bank card and ATM fees include interchange and other income from credit and debit card transactions, fees earned from processing card transactions for merchants, and fees earned from ATM transactions. Bank card and ATM fees totaled $23.0 million for the third quarter of 2026, down $0.2 million, or 1%, from the second quarter of 2026, driven primarily by a decline in merchant services fees. Bank card and ATM fees for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 totaled $68.3 million, up $3.8 million, or 6%, from the same period in 2025. The year-over-year increase is mostly attributable to interchange fees, due in part to card-focused marketing campaigns, and ATM fees, reflecting a marketing adjustment on certain fees.

Investment and annuity fees and insurance commissions includes both fees earned from sales of annuity and insurance products, as well as managed account fees. Investment and annuity fees and insurance commissions totaled $13.9 million for the third quarter of 2026, down $0.7 million, or 5%, from the second quarter of 2026. The linked quarter decrease was largely driven by annuity sales volume. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, investment and annuity fees and insurance commissions totaled $41.1 million, up $4.5 million, or 12%, from the same period in 2025. The year-over-year increase was largely driven by fixed income trading and investment management fees, partially offset by a decline in annuity sales. Investment and annuity fee income can vary from period to period depending on market conditions, impacting demand for products and services and related fees.

Income from secondary mortgage market operations is comprised of income produced from the origination and sales of residential mortgage loans in the secondary market. We offer a full range of mortgage products to our customers and typically sell longer-term fixed-rate loans while retaining the majority of adjustable-rate loans, as well as loans generated through programs to support customer relationships. Secondary mortgage market operations income will vary based on mortgage application volume, pull through rates, the percentage of loans ultimately sold in the secondary market and the timing of such sales. Income from secondary mortgage market operations was $2.9 million in the third quarter of 2026, down $1.2 million, or 30%, from the second quarter of 2026. The linked quarter decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in both production and the percentage of loans sold in the secondary market, largely reflective of pressure from interest rate movement. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, income from secondary mortgage market operations totaled $10.5 million, down $0.6 million, or 6%, from the same period in 2025, as the impact of an increase in mortgage production was offset by a decline in the percentage of loans sold in the secondary market.

There was no net gain or loss on securities transactions during the third or second quarters of 2026 or in any period in 2025. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, net loss on securities transactions totaled $98.6 million, resulting from the sale of $1.5 billion of available for sale securities. The sale reflects a strategic decision to restructure the portfolio to enhance future net interest income through deployment of the proceeds into higher-yielding instruments.

Income from bank-owned life insurance (BOLI) is typically generated through insurance benefit proceeds as well as the growth of the cash surrender value of insurance contracts held. Income from BOLI was $5.9 million for the third quarter of 2026, down $0.4 million, or 7%, from the second quarter of 2026. The linked quarter decrease was driven by a decline in mortality gains that was partially offset by an increase in income from changes in cash surrender value. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, income from BOLI totaled $17.5 million, up $1.5 million, or 10%, from the same period in 2025, driven by an increase in income from changes in cash surrender value that was partially offset by a decline in mortality gains.

Credit related fees include fees assessed on letters of credit and unused portions of loan commitments. For the three months ended September 30, 2026, credit related fees totaled $2.9 million, up $0.1 million, or 3%, from the second quarter of 2026. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, credit related fees totaled $8.4 million, virtually flat compared to the same period in 2025. Credit related fees can vary from period to period depending on the amount of letters of credit outstanding and utilization rates of lines of credit.

Income or loss from customer and other derivatives is largely from our customer interest rate derivative program. Income from customer and other derivatives totaled $0.1 million for the third quarter of 2026, down $0.3 million from the second quarter of 2026. The linked quarter decrease was largely attributable to losses associated with assumption changes to the Visa Class B derivative liability, partially offset by an increase in income from the customer derivative program that is a product of volume and interest rate movement during the quarter. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, income from customer and other derivatives totaled $1.4 million, down $2.2 million from the same period in 2025. The year-over-year decrease was largely driven by the customer derivative program that is a product of volume and changes in the interest rate environment during the comparative periods. Derivative income can be volatile and is dependent upon the composition of the portfolio, volume and mix of sales and termination activity, and market value adjustments due to market interest rate movement.

 

Net gains on sales of premises, equipment and other assets consist primarily of net revenue earned from sales of excess-bank owned facilities and equipment no longer in use, gains on sales of Small Business Administration (SBA) and other non-residential mortgage loans, and leases and other assets associated with the equipment finance line of business. Net gains on sales of premises, equipment and other assets for the third quarter of 2026 totaled $1.3 million, down $0.3 million, or 21%, from the second quarter of 2026. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, net gains on sales of premises, equipment and other assets totaled $5.0 million, down $0.2

million, or 4%, from the same period in 2025. The level of net gains or losses on sales of these assets in a given reporting period will vary based on a variety of circumstances.

Other miscellaneous income is comprised of various items, including income from investments in small business investment companies (SBIC), dividends on Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock, and fees from loan syndication and other specialty lines of business. Other miscellaneous income totaled $5.1 million, up $1.7 million from the second quarter of 2026. The linked quarter increase reflects increases in income from SBICs, syndication income and dividends on FHLB stock. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, other miscellaneous income totaled $14.9 million, down $0.9 million from the same period in 2025. The year over year decrease was driven primarily by a decline in income from SBICs and syndication fees that was partially offset by an increase in dividends on FHLB stock. SBIC income and syndication fees will vary from period to period, depending on activity.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2026 was $262.0 million, up $36.6 million, or 16%, from the second quarter of 2026. Included in the three months ended September 30, 2026 were supplemental disclosure items totaling $29.4 million related to the acquisition of OFB Bancshares, Inc. Excluding the supplemental disclosure items, noninterest expense was up $7.2 million, or 3%, from the second quarter of 2026, driven largely by increases in personnel, and occupancy and equipment expense. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, noninterest expense totaled $708.2 million, up $74.4 million, or 12%, from the same period in 2025. Included in noninterest expense for nine months ended September 30, 2026 were the $29.4 million of OFB acquisition-related supplemental disclosure items mentioned above. Included in the nine months ended September 30, 2025 were supplemental disclosure items totaling $5.9 million attributable to the Sabal acquisition. Excluding the supplemental disclosure items in each respective period, noninterest expense was up $51.0 million, or 8%, from the same period in 2025, with increases across most categories but largely driven by increases in personnel, business development, and data processing expenses. A more detailed discussion of noninterest expense variances follows.

Personnel expense consists of salaries, incentive compensation, long-term incentives, payroll taxes, and other employee benefits such as 401(k), pension, and insurance for medical, life and disability. Personnel expense totaled $144.8 million for the third quarter of 2026, up $14.6 million, or 11%, from the second quarter of 2026. The three months ended September 30, 2026 included $8.3 million of OFB acquisition costs highlighted as supplemental disclosure items. Excluding the OFB acquisition costs, personnel expense for the third quarter of 2026 were up $6.2 million, or 5%, from the second quarter of 2026. The linked quarter increase was driven primarily by $3.6 million of expense attributable to the addition of OFB associates and by increases in salary expense as a result of increased headcount, commissions and incentives associated with production, certain employee benefits and a decrease in benefit from salary deferrals associated with lending activity. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in certain other employee benefits. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, personnel expense totaled $402.1 million, up $49.2 million, or 14%, from the same period in 2025. The nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 included $8.3 million and $1.4 million, respectively, of acquisition costs highlighted as supplemental disclosure items. Excluding the acquisition costs in each respective period, personnel expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was up $42.3 million, or 12%, from the same period in 2025. The year-over-year increase reflects increases in most components of this category, and reflects both expected annual increases in salary, incentives, bonus and associated benefit costs, and incremental expense associated with increased headcount that includes the addition of OFB associates and additional hires of revenue-producing associates, and facility management associates whose function was previously outsourced.

Occupancy and equipment expenses are primarily composed of lease expenses, depreciation, maintenance and repairs, rent, property taxes, and other equipment expenses. Occupancy and equipment expenses totaled $20.1 million for the third quarter of 2026, up $1.8 million, or 10%, from the second quarter of 2026, primarily attributable to increases in equipment expense, building repair and maintenance, utilities and leased facility expense. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, occupancy and equipment expenses totaled $55.6 million, up $1.4 million, or 3%, compared to the same period in 2025. The year over year increase was mostly driven by

leased facility expense and equipment expense that was partially offset by decreases in facility repair and maintenance, outsourced facility management, and insurance expense.

Data processing expense includes expenses related to third party technology processing and servicing costs, technology project costs and fees associated with bank card and ATM transactions, and credit card reward expenses. Data processing expense was $38.7 million for the third quarter of 2026, up $7.0 million, or 22%, from the second quarter of 2026. The three months ended September 30, 2026 included $7.8 million of OFB acquisition costs highlighted as supplemental disclosure items, largely related to software contract terminations. Excluding the OFB acquisition costs, data processing expense for the third quarter of 2026 was down $0.8 million, or 3%, from the second quarter of 2026. The linked quarter decrease was driven primarily by a decline in activity-based card processing expenses and certain third-party technology processing expenses, partially offset by increases in maintenance on bank owned software and expense associated with an outsourced ATM provider. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, data processing expense totaled $103.2 million, up $7.8 million, or 8%, from the same period in 2025. The nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 included $7.8 million and $2.0 million, respectively, of acquisition costs highlighted as supplemental disclosure items. Excluding the acquisition costs in each respective period, data processing expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was up $2.0 million, or 2%, from the same period in 2025. The year over year increase was largely attributable to increases in certain third-party technology processing and activity-based card processing and rewards and rebates expenses, partially offset by a decrease in amortization and maintenance on bank owned software. Data processing expense can vary from period to period, depending on business needs and technology enhancement initiatives.

 

Professional services expense includes accounting and audit, legal, consulting and certain outsourced service expense. Professional services expense for the third quarter of 2026 totaled $23.5 million, up $9.0 million, or 62%, from the second quarter of 2026. The three months ended September 30, 2026 included $10.5 million of OFB acquisition costs highlighted as supplemental disclosure items, primarily comprised of transaction-related legal and consulting costs. Excluding the OFB acquisition costs, professional services expense for the third quarter of 2026 was down $1.5 million, or 10%, from the second quarter of 2026. The linked quarter decrease was mostly attributable to professional services associated with stand-alone engagements, including process improvement projects and expenses associated with problem loan collections. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, professional services expense totaled $51.7 million, up $9.7 million, or 23%, from the same period in 2025. The nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 included $10.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively, of acquisition costs highlighted as supplemental disclosure items. Excluding the acquisition costs in each respective period, professional services expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was up $0.7 million, or 2%, from the same period in 2025.The year-over-year increase was largely attributable to costs of other professional services associated with stand-alone engagements, including process improvement projects, partially offset by declines in legal fees. Professional services expense may vary from period to period, generally related to the timing of external service needs.

Deposit insurance and regulatory fees for the third quarter of 2026 totaled $5.3 million, up $0.3 million, or 5%, from the second quarter of 2026. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, deposit insurance and regulatory fees totaled $15.3 million, up $0.8 million, or 5%, from the same period in 2025. The linked quarter and year over year increases are mostly reflective of changes in our risk-based assessment calculation.

Other real estate and foreclosed assets expense, net totaled $0.6 million in the third quarter of 2026, up $0.4 million from the second quarter of 2026. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, other real estate and foreclosed assets expense totaled $1.2 million, down $1.4 million from the same period in 2025. Gains or losses on the sale of other real estate and foreclosed assets may occur periodically and are dependent on the number and type of assets for sale and current market conditions.

Corporate value, franchise and other non-income tax expense for the third quarter of 2026 totaled $4.5 million, down $0.1 million, or 1%, from the second quarter of 2026 driven by decreases in both franchise and bank share tax. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, corporate value, franchise and other non-income tax expense totaled $13.4 million, virtually flat compared to the same period in 2025, as an increase in franchise tax was mostly offset by a decrease in bank share tax. The calculation of bank share tax is based on multiple variables, including average quarterly assets, earnings and stockholders’ equity to determine the taxable assessment value and can vary from period to period.

Business development-related expenses (including advertising, travel, entertainment and contributions) totaled $12.7 million for the third quarter of 2026, up $2.7 million, or 27%, from the second quarter of 2026. The three months ended September 30, 2026 included $2.1 million of OFB acquisition costs highlighted as supplemental disclosure items, largely related to advertising costs. Excluding the OFB acquisition costs, business development-related expenses for the third quarter of 2026 were up $0.7 million, or 6%, from the second quarter of 2026, driven largely by travel and entertainment. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, business development-related expenses totaled $32.8 million, up $8.7 million, or 36%, from the same period in 2025. Excluding the $2.1 million of OFB acquisition costs, business development-related expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 were up $6.6 million, or 27%, from the same period in 2025. The year-over-year increase was attributable to most components of this category but driven primarily by digital and print media, travel, entertainment and promotion expenses.

All other expenses, excluding amortization of intangibles, is comprised of a variety of other operational expenses and losses, tax credit investment amortization, and net other retirement expense. All other expenses totaled $9.0 million for the third quarter of 2026, up $0.3 million, or 4%, from the second quarter of 2026. The three months ended September 30, 2026 included $0.7 million of OFB acquisition costs highlighted as supplemental disclosure items. Excluding the OFB acquisition costs, all other expenses for the third quarter of 2026 were down $0.4 million, or 4%, from the second quarter of 2026. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, all other expenses totaled $25.2 million, down $2.1 million, or 8%, from the same period in 2025. The nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025 included $0.7 million and $1.0 million, respectively, of acquisition costs highlighted as supplemental disclosure items. Excluding the acquisition costs in each respective period, all other expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 were down $1.8 million, or 7%, from the same period in 2025, driven primarily by net other retirement expense as a result of changes in actuarial assumptions for our pension plan, partially offset by an increase in other operational losses.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate for the third quarter of 2026 was 22.5%, compared to 21.7% in the second quarter of 2026. The linked-quarter increase in the effective tax rate was due primarily to increased nondeductible expenses attributable to the OFB acquisition that closed in the third quarter of 2026. The effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2026 was 21.6%, compared to 20.6% for the same period in 2025.

Many factors impact the effective income tax rate including, but not limited to, the level of pre-tax income and relative impact of net tax benefits related to tax credit investments, tax-exempt interest income, bank-owned life insurance, and nondeductible expenses. Additionally, discrete tax items recognized in any given period affect the comparability of the effective income tax rate between periods. Such items include share-based compensation, valuation allowance changes, uncertain tax position changes and tax law changes.

Our effective tax rate has historically varied from the federal statutory rate primarily because of tax-exempt income and tax credits. Interest income on bonds issued by or loans to state and municipal governments and authorities, and earnings from the bank-owned life insurance program are the major components of tax-exempt income. The main source of tax credits has been investments in tax-advantaged securities and tax credit projects. These investments are made primarily in the markets we serve and are directed at tax credits issued under the Federal and State New Market Tax Credit (NMTC) programs, Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) programs, as well as pre-2018 Qualified Zone Academy Bonds (QZAB) and Qualified School Construction Bonds (QSCB). These investments generate tax credits, which reduce current and future taxes and are recognized when earned as a benefit in the provision for income taxes.

We have invested in NMTC projects through investments in our own Community Development Entities (CDE), as well as other unrelated CDEs. Federal tax credits from NMTC investments are recognized over a seven-year period, while recognition of the benefits from state tax credits varies from three to five years. We have also invested in affordable housing projects that generate federal LIHTC tax credits that are recognized over a ten-year period, beginning in the year the rental activity begins. The amortization of the LIHTC investment cost is recognized as a component of income tax expense in proportion to the tax credits recognized over the ten-year credit period.

Based on tax credit investments that have been made to date in 2026, we expect to realize benefits from federal and state tax credits over the next three years totaling $8.0 million, $5.5 million, and $4.4 million in 2027, 2028, and 2029, respectively. We may continue making investments in tax credit projects; however, our ability to access new credits will depend upon, among other factors, federal and state tax policies and the level of competition for such credits.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity

Liquidity management ensures that funds are available to meet the cash flow requirements of our depositors and borrowers, while also meeting the operating, capital and strategic cash flow needs of the Company, the Bank and other subsidiaries. As part of the overall asset and liability management process, liquidity management strategies and measurements have been developed to manage and monitor liquidity risk. At September 30, 2026, our available on and off-balance sheet liquidity of $20.5 billion was well in excess of our estimated uninsured, noncollateralized deposits of approximately $14.3 billion. The following table summarizes available liquidity at September 30, 2026.

(a) Amount used includes letters of credit.

The asset portion of the balance sheet provides liquidity primarily through loan principal repayments, maturities and repayments of investment securities and occasional sales of various assets. Short-term investments such as federal funds sold, securities purchased under agreements to resell and interest-bearing deposits with the Federal Reserve Bank or with other commercial banks are additional sources of liquidity to meet cash flow requirements. Free securities represent unpledged securities that can be sold or used as collateral for borrowings, and include unpledged securities assigned to short-term dealer repurchase agreements or to the Federal Reserve Bank discount window. Total pledged securities were $3.1 billion at September 30, 2026, down $778 million from December 31, 2025. The decrease in pledged securities compared to December 31, 2025 is largely attributable to pledges that were released in response to a decrease in public funds deposits. Both securities and FHLB letters of credit are pledged as collateral related to public funds and repurchase agreements. Management has established an internal target for the ratio of free securities to total securities of 20% or greater. As shown in the table below, our ratio of free securities to total securities was 59.98% at September 30, 2026, compared to 58.76% at June 30, 2026, and 51.97% at December 31, 2025.

The liability portion of the balance sheet provides liquidity mainly through the ability to use cash sourced from customer deposit accounts. At September 30, 2026, deposits totaled $32.2 billion, up $2.5 billion from June 30, 2026 and $2.9 billion from December 31, 2025. The increases from both comparative dates are primarily attributable to deposits assumed in the OFB acquisition but also to growth in transaction and savings deposits that was partially offset by retail time deposit maturities and typical seasonal movement in public funds deposits. There were no brokered time deposits at September 30, 2026, June 30, 2026 or December 31, 2025. The use of brokered deposits as a funding source is subject to certain policies regarding the amount, term and interest rate.

Core deposits consist of total deposits excluding certificates of deposit of $250,000 or more and brokered deposits. The level of core deposits will vary based on the level of total deposits and the mix therein. Core deposits totaled $30.8 billion at September 30, 2026, up $2.5 billion from June 30, 2026 and $2.9 billion from December 31, 2025. The increases from both comparative dates are primarily attributable to core deposits assumed in the OFB acquisition but also to growth in transaction and savings deposits that includes some shifting of mix from time and noninterest-bearing deposits. The increase compared to year end is also net of a typical seasonal decline

in public funds deposits. The ratio of core deposits to total deposits was 95.57% at September 30, 2026, compared to 95.50% at June 30, 2026 and 94.99% at December 31, 2025.

Purchases of federal funds, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other short-term borrowings from customers provide additional sources of liquidity to meet short-term funding requirements. Besides funding from customer sources, the Bank has a line of credit with the FHLB that is secured by blanket pledges of certain mortgage loans. At September 30, 2026, the bank had $750 million in borrowings and approximately $5.2 billion available under this line. At September 30, 2026, the unused borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve’s discount window was approximately $3.5 billion. There were no outstanding borrowings with the Federal Reserve at any date during any period covered by this report.

Wholesale funds, which are comprised of short-term borrowings, long-term debt and brokered deposits were 4.93% of core deposits at September 30, 2026, compared to 6.24% at June 30, 2026 and 4.37% at December 31, 2025. At September 30, 2026, wholesale funds totaled $1.5 billion, a decrease of $248.3 million from June 30, 2026 and an increase of $299.8 million from December 31, 2025. The variances from both comparative dates were largely driven by changes in the level of FHLB borrowings. The amount of wholesale funds outstanding will vary based on retail deposit levels and current funding needs. The Company has established an internal target for wholesale funds to be less than 25% of core deposits.

Other key measures used to monitor liquidity include the liquid asset ratio and the loan-to-deposit ratio. The liquid asset ratio (liquid assets, consisting of cash, short-term investments and free securities, divided by total liabilities) measures our ability to meet short-term obligations. Our liquid asset ratio was 16.84% at September 30, 2026, compared to 17.72% at June 30, 2026 and 15.63% at December 31, 2025. Management has established a minimum liquid asset ratio of 7.5% and an internal target of 12% or greater. The loan to deposit ratio (average loans outstanding for the reporting period divided by average deposits outstanding) measures the amount of funds the Bank lends for each dollar of deposits on hand. Our average loan-to-deposit ratio for the third quarter of 2026 was 83.32%, compared to 84.57% for the second quarter of 2026, and 82.30% for the fourth quarter of 2025. Management has an established target range for the loan-to-deposit ratio of 87% to 89%, but will operate outside that range under certain circumstances.

Cash generated from operations is another important source of funds to meet liquidity needs. The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in Part I, Item 1 of this document present operating cash flows and summarize all significant sources and uses of funds during the nine months ended September 30, 2026 and 2025.

Dividends received from the Bank have been the primary source of funds available to the Parent for the payment of dividends to our stockholders, repurchasing our common stock in the open market, servicing its debt and for acquisitions with cash consideration. The liquidity management process takes into account the various regulatory provisions that can limit the amount of dividends the Bank can distribute to the Parent. The Parent targets cash and other liquid assets to provide liquidity in an amount sufficient to fund approximately six quarters of ongoing cash or liquid asset needs, consisting primarily of common stockholder dividends, debt service requirements, and any expected early extinguishment of debt. The Parent may operate below the target level on a temporary basis if a return to the target can be achieved within a reasonable amount of time. The Parent had cash and liquid assets of $205.5 million at September 30, 2026.

Capital Resources

Stockholders’ equity totaled $4.2 billion at September 30, 2026, down $225.8 million, or 5%, from December 31, 2025. The decrease from December 31, 2025 is primarily attributable to common stock repurchases of $223.3 million, other comprehensive loss of $178.1 million and dividends of $122.9 million, partially offset by net income of $284.4 million and long-term incentive plan and dividend reinvestment activity of $14.1 million.

The tangible common equity (TCE) ratio was 8.05% at September 30, 2026, down 201 bps from 10.06% at December 31, 2025, driven by the impact of the OFB acquisition (-114 bps), other comprehensive loss (-52 bps), common stock repurchases (-64 bps), dividends (-36 bps) and tangible asset growth (-23 bps), partially offset by tangible net earnings (+85 bps) and stock-based compensation and other (+3 bps).

The regulatory capital ratios of the Company and the Bank at September 30, 2026 were down compared to June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, due primarily to the acquisition of OFB but remain well in excess of current regulatory minimum requirements, including capital conservation buffers, by at least $650 million. The Company and the Bank have been categorized as “well-capitalized” in the most recent notices received from our regulators. Refer to the Supervision and Regulation section in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for further discussion of our capital requirements.

On July 30, 2026, our board of directors declared a regular quarterly common stock cash dividend of $0.50 per share. The quarterly common stock cash dividend was paid on September 15, 2026 to shareholders of record on September 4, 2026. The Company has paid uninterrupted dividends to its shareholders since 1967.

In December 2025, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program, effective January 1, 2026, to repurchase up to 5% of the shares of common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2025, or 4.1 million shares. The authorization expires on December 31, 2026. The shares may be repurchased in the open market, by block purchase, through accelerated share repurchase plans, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, in one or more transactions, from time to time, depending upon market conditions and other factors, and in accordance with applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company is not obligated to purchase any shares under this program and the repurchase authorization may be terminated or amended by the Board of Directors at any time prior to the expiration date. During the third quarter of 2026, the Company repurchased 1.0 million shares under this program at an average price of $77.94 per share, inclusive of commissions. To date, 3.1 million shares have been repurchased under this program. The Company has accrued an estimated excise tax liability on net share repurchases under this plan of $2.0 million at September 30, 2026.

 

On March 19, 2026, the federal bank regulatory agencies requested comment on three proposals to modernize the regulatory capital framework for banks of all sizes. The proposals are intended to streamline capital requirements and better align regulatory capital with risk while maintaining the safety and soundness of the banking system. While the agencies anticipate that the amount of overall capital in the banking system will modestly decrease as a result of these proposals, they expect capital levels will still be substantially higher than they were before the 2008 financial crisis. In aggregate, the proposals would modestly reduce capital requirements for large banks and moderately reduce requirements for smaller banks, reflecting their more traditional lending activities.

 

Comments on all three proposals were due by June 18, 2026, and there is not yet a proposed timeline for issuance of a final rule or an implementation date. The Company is in process of evaluating the proposed rules and, based on a preliminary estimate, expects the rules as proposed would have a favorable impact on our capital levels.

BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS

Short-Term Investments

Short-term investments are held so that funds are available to meet the cash flow needs of both borrowers and depositors. Short-term investments, including interest-bearing bank deposits and federal funds sold, totaled $632.9 million at September 30, 2026, up $117.8 million from June 30, 2026 and $500.6 million from December 31, 2025. Average short-term investments of $687.6 million for the third quarter of 2026 were up $155.3 million from the second quarter of 2026. Typically, the balance of short-term investments will change on a daily basis depending upon movement in customer loan and deposit accounts.

Securities

The purpose of the securities portfolio is to increase profitability, mitigate interest rate risk, provide liquidity and comply with regulatory pledging requirements. Our securities portfolio includes securities categorized as available for sale and held to maturity.

59


Table of Contents

 

Available for sale securities are carried at fair value and may be sold prior to maturity. Unrealized gains or losses on available for sale securities, net of deferred taxes, are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss in stockholders' equity.

Investment in securities totaled $7.8 billion at September 30, 2026, down $133.1 million, or 2%, from June 30, 2026 and $336.5 million, or 4%, from December 31, 2025. The linked quarter decrease is primarily attributable to a market valuation adjustment of $252.1 million, partially offset by net purchases. The decrease from December 31, 2025 is also due to the market valuation adjustment and net paydowns and maturities as well as the impact of the portfolio restructure described below. At September 30, 2026, securities available for sale totaled $6.0 billion and securities held to maturity totaled $1.7 billion.

In January 2026, we executed a restructuring of the available for sale securities portfolio to enhance net interest income whereby we sold securities with an amortized cost of $1.5 billion and an average yield of 2.49% and reinvested the $1.4 billion of proceeds with the purchase of securities with an average yield of 4.35%.

Our securities portfolio consists mainly of residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations that are issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies. We invest only in high quality investment grade securities with a targeted portfolio effective duration generally between two and five and a half years. At September 30, 2026, the average expected maturity of the portfolio was 5.44 years with an effective duration of 4.15 years and a nominal weighted-average yield of 3.36%. Under an immediate, parallel rate shock using increases of 100 bps and 200 bps, the effective durations would be 4.11 years and 4.04 years, respectively. At December 31, 2025, the average expected maturity of the portfolio was 5.18 years with an effective duration of 3.89 years and a nominal weighted-average yield of 2.87%. The changes in expected maturity, effective duration, and nominal weighted-average yield from December 31, 2025 were largely the result of the portfolio restructuring and reinvestment in the portfolio during the period. At September 30, 2026, approximately $387.8 million of our available for sale securities are hedged with $359.0 million in fair value hedges in order to provide protection and flexibility to reposition and/or reprice the portfolio, effectively reducing the duration (market price risk) on the hedged securities. Once effective, fair value hedges synthetically convert the notional amount of the hedged asset over the life of the hedge to a variable rate instrument that is indexed to the federal funds effective rate. At September 30, 2026, all fair value hedges in place were effective.

At the end of each reporting period, we evaluate the securities portfolio for credit loss. Based on our assessments, expected credit loss was not material for any period presented, and therefore no allowance for credit loss was recorded.

Loans

Total loans at September 30, 2026, were $26.5 billion, up $2.0 billion, or 8%, from June 30, 2026 and $2.6 billion, or 11%, from December 31, 2025. The increase from both comparative dates includes approximately $1.7 billion of loans acquired in the OFB transaction. Excluding the impact of OFB, loans grew $243.7 million, or 1%, linked-quarter and $865.4 million, or 4%, from December 31, 2025, driven largely by commercial real estate lending across multiple products. A more detailed discussion of loan portfolio activity follows.

Our commercial customer base is diversified over a range of industries. We lend mainly to middle-market and smaller commercial entities, although we do participate in larger shared-credit loan facilities generally with businesses/sponsors operating in our market areas that are well known to the relationship officers. Shared national credits outstanding at September 30, 2026 totaled approximately $2.3 billion, or 8.6% of total loans, up $243.0 million from December 31, 2025. At September 30, 2026, our largest industry concentrations in shared national credits included approximately $339 million in real estate rental and leasing, $321 million in finance and insurance, $246 million in healthcare and social assistance, $227 million in manufacturing, $215 million in information, and $214 million in professional, scientific and technical services, with the remainder of the balance in other diverse industries.

Commercial and industrial (C&I) loans include both non-real estate and owner occupied real estate secured loans. C&I loans totaled $14.1 billion at September 30, 2026, up $821.2 million, or 6%, from June 30, 2026 and up $1.1 billion, or 8%, from December 31, 2025. The increase from both comparative dates includes approximately $846.8 million of C&I loans acquired in the OFB transaction, with the remainder of the increase from December 31, 2025 reflecting increased demand and upward momentum in loan production from our new bankers.

 

Our C&I loan portfolio is well diversified by product, client, and geography throughout our footprint. Nevertheless, we may be exposed to certain concentrations of credit risk which exist in relation to different borrowers or groups of borrowers, specific types of collateral, industries, loan products, or regions. The following table provides detail of the more significant industry concentrations for our commercial and industrial loan portfolio, which is based on NAICS codes for all industries, with the exception of energy, which is based on the borrower’s source of revenue (i.e. a manufacturer whose income is derived from energy-related business is reported as energy).

Commercial real estate - income producing loans totaled approximately $5.5 billion at September 30, 2026, up $883.3 million, or 19%, from June 30, 2026 and $1.2 billion, or 28%, from December 31, 2025. Construction and land development loans totaled approximately $1.5 billion at September 30, 2026, up $143.1 million, or 10%, from June 30, 2026 and $309.5 million, or 25%, from December 31, 2025. The growth from both comparative dates includes $592.8 million and $128.0 million of commercial real estate - income producing loans and construction and land development loans, respectively. The remaining increase in these portfolios reflects increased demand and loan production, showing continued progress in our organic growth plan. The following table details the end-of-period aggregated commercial real estate - income producing and construction loan balances by property type. Loans reflected in 1-4 family residential construction include both loans to construction builders as well as single family borrowers.

The residential mortgage loan portfolio totaled $4.0 billion at September 30, 2026, up $86.7 million, or 2%, compared to June 30, 2026 and down $21.1 million, or 1%, compared to December 31, 2025. The variances from both comparative dates reflect $129.0

million of loans acquired in the OFB transaction. The composition of the residential mortgage loan portfolio will depend on the volume of loans originated and the percentage ultimately sold in the secondary market.

The consumer loan portfolio totaled $1.4 billion at September 30, 2026, up $26.0 million, or 2%, from June 30, 2026 and $33.7 million, or 3%, from December 31, 2025. The growth from both comparative dates includes $19.7 million of loans acquired in the OFB transaction.

Average loans for the third quarter of 2026 of $25.8 billion were up $1.4 billion, or 6%, compared to the second quarter of 2026.

Allowance for Credit Losses and Asset Quality

Our allowance for credit losses was $375.8 million at September 30, 2026, an increase of $27.8 million from June 30, 2026, and is comprised of a $27.1 million increase in the allowance for loan losses and a $0.7 million increase in the reserve for unfunded lending commitments. The increase in the allowance for credit losses from June 30, 2026 is attributable to $21.9 million acquisition date reserve on loans acquired in the OFB transaction, a $16.1 million provision for credit losses, which includes $1.0 million attributable to unfunded commitments assumed in the OFB acquisition, partially offset by $10.2 million of net charge-offs. Our overall credit loss outlook is not significantly different from that at June 30, 2026. Uncertainty remains related to geopolitical conflict and economic conditions, which continues to influence our reserve levels. The increase in the allowance for credit losses at September 30, 2026 compared to June 30, 2026 includes a $27.1 million build in our collectively evaluated reserves, driven by the initial reserve on acquired loans and other portfolio growth, and a $0.7 million build in individually evaluated reserves on problem loans. The level of reserves on individually evaluated credits can vary from period to period based on instrument-specific circumstances.

 

Our September 30, 2026 allowance for credit losses increased $34.2 million compared to December 31, 2025, and is comprised of a $31.9 million increase in the allowance for loan losses and a $2.2 million increase in the reserve for unfunded lending commitments. The increase in the allowance for credit losses from December 31, 2025 is attributable to $21.9 million acquisition date reserve on loans acquired in the OFB transaction, a $43.0 million provision for credit losses, inclusive of the $1.0 million attributable to unfunded commitments assumed in the OFB acquisition, partially offset by $30.8 million of net charge-offs. The increase in the allowance for credit losses from year end is largely due to the increase in loan balances, as coverage to total loans is relatively flat.

We utilized the September 2026 Moody's economic scenarios in our allowance for credit losses calculation at September 30, 2026. After considering the variables underlying each of the Moody's economic scenarios, management probability-weighted both the baseline scenario and the downside S-2 mild recessionary scenario at 50% in the computation of the allowance for credit losses at September 30, 2026, consistent with the scenario weightings used in the computation of the allowance for credit losses at June 30, 2026. Each of the scenarios considered have varying degrees of severity and duration of impacts to forecasted market conditions, economic indicators, monetary and other governmental policies and geopolitical conditions, among other variables. Refer to the Economic Outlook section of this discussion and analysis for further information on the Moody’s scenarios and our weighting assumptions.

Our allowance for credit losses coverage to total loans was 1.42% at September 30, 2026, unchanged from June 30, 2026 and down one basis point from 1.43% at December 31, 2025. The allowance for credit losses on the commercial portfolio totaled $306.4 million, or 1.45% of that portfolio, at September 30, 2026, compared to $280.6 million, or 1.45%, at June 30, 2026. The allowance for credit losses on the residential mortgage portfolio totaled $43.7 million, or 1.09% of that portfolio, at September 30, 2026, compared to $42.3 million, or 1.08%, at June 30, 2026. The allowance for credit losses on the consumer portfolio totaled $25.7 million, or 1.87% of that portfolio, at September 30, 2026, compared to $25.2 million, or 1.87%, at June 30, 2026.

Criticized commercial loans totaled $485.3 million at September 30, 2026, down $6.7 million, or 1%, from $492.0 million at June 30, 2026, and $50.1 million, or 9%, from $535.4 million at December 31, 2025. Criticized loans are defined as those having potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention (risk-rated as special mention, substandard and doubtful), including both accruing and nonaccruing loans. The Company routinely assesses the ratings of loans in its portfolio through an established and comprehensive portfolio management process. In addition, the Company often reviews portfolios of loans to determine if there are areas of risk not specifically identified in its loan by loan approach. Criticized commercial loans comprised 2.29% of that portfolio at September 30, 2026, down from 2.55% at June 30, 2026 and from 2.88% at December 31, 2025. We remain focused on identifying specific and broader risk indicators that may be impacting certain segments in our portfolio, and we have not seen signs of significant weakening in any particular industry, sector or geographic segment beyond what we believe has been experienced by the banking industry as a whole. Our criticized commercial loans at September 30, 2026 are diversified across many industries, with the largest concentrations as follows: $105.0 million in real estate, rental and leasing; $72.7 million in healthcare and social assistance; $69.0 million in retail trade; $56.3 million in accommodation, food service and entertainment; $37.7 million in manufacturing; and $34.2 million in transportation and warehousing. Commercial loans risk rated pass-watch totaled $543.7 million at September 30, 2026, up

Table of Contents

 

$86.5 million, or 19%, from June 30, 2026, and down $71.1 million, or 12%, from December 31, 2025. The pass-watch risk rating includes credits with performance trends that reflect sufficient risk to cause concern but have not risen to the level of criticized.

 

Net charge-offs were $10.2 million, or 0.16% of average total loans on an annualized basis in the third quarter of 2026, compared to $9.4 million, or 0.16% of average total loans on an annualized basis in the second quarter of 2026. Net charge-offs in the third quarter of 2026 included $7.3 million in the commercial portfolio, $2.5 million in the consumer portfolio and $0.4 million in the residential mortgage portfolio. Net charge-offs in the second quarter of 2026 included $6.6 million in the commercial portfolio, $2.7 million in the consumer portfolio and $0.1 million in the residential mortgage portfolio.

Nonaccrual loans plus ORE and foreclosed assets totaled $144.3 million at September 30, 2026, up $17.7 million from June 30, 2026 and $22.6 million from December 31, 2025. Nonaccrual loans of $133.3 million were up $19.7 million from June 30, 2026, and $26.5 million from December 31, 2025. The ratio of nonaccrual loans to total loans remains relatively low at 0.50% of the total portfolio. ORE and foreclosed assets were $10.9 million at September 30, 2026, down $1.9 million from June 30, 2026 and $3.9 million from December 31, 2025. Nonaccrual loans plus ORE and other foreclosed assets as a percentage of total loans, ORE and other foreclosed assets was 0.54% at September 30, 2026.

Deposits

Deposits provide the most significant source of funding for our interest earning assets. Generally, our ability to compete for market share depends on our deposit pricing and our wide range of products and services that are focused on customer needs, among other factors. We offer high-quality banking services with convenient delivery channels, including online and mobile banking. We provide specialized services to our commercial customers to promote commercial deposit growth. These services include treasury management, industry expertise and lockbox services.

Lack of diversity in concentration within a deposit base may increase the risk of events or trends that could prompt a larger-scale demand for deposits outflow. Concerns over a financial institution's ability to protect deposit balances in excess of the federally insured limit may increase the risk of a deposit run. We consider our deposit base to be seasoned, stable and well-diversified. We also offer our customers an insured cash sweep product (ICS) that allows customers to secure deposits above FDIC insured limits. At September 30, 2026, deposits associated with the ICS product totaled $674.1 million compared to $263.3 million at June 30, 2026 and $322.2 million at December 31, 2025. The increase from both comparative dates include $433.5 million of ICS deposits assumed in the OFB acquisition. At September 30, 2026, we have calculated our average deposit account size by dividing period-end deposits by the population of accounts with balances to be approximately $40,800.

Further, at September 30, 2026, our sources of liquidity exceeded uninsured deposits. We have estimated the Bank’s amount of uninsured deposits using the methodologies and assumptions required for FDIC regulatory reporting to be approximately $17.1 billion at September 30, 2026. Our uninsured deposit total at September 30, 2026, includes approximately $2.8 billion of public funds that have pledged securities as collateral, leaving approximately $14.3 billion of noncollateralized, uninsured deposits compared to total liquidity of $20.5 billion. Our ratio of noncollateralized, uninsured deposits to total deposits was approximately 44.3% at September 30, 2026, compared to 41.8% at June 30, 2026 and 38.6% at December 31, 2025.

Total deposits were $32.2 billion at September 30, 2026, up $2.5 billion, or 9%, from June 30, 2026 and $2.9 billion, or 10%, from December 31, 2025. The increases from both comparative dates are primarily attributable to deposits assumed in the OFB acquisition but also to growth in transaction and savings deposits that was partially offset by retail time deposit maturities and typical seasonal movement in public funds deposits. Average deposits for the third quarter of 2026 were $30.9 billion, up $2.1 billion, or 7%, from the second quarter of 2026.

The following table shows the composition of our deposits at each date indicated.

Noninterest-bearing demand deposits totaled $10.6 billion at September 30, 2026, up $217.9 million, or 2%, from September 30, 2026 and $179.8 million, or 2%, from December 31, 2025. The increase from both comparative periods includes $418.7 million of noninterest-bearing demand deposits assumed in the OFB acquisition. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits comprised 33% of total deposits at September 30, 2026, compared to 35% at both June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Interest-bearing transaction and savings accounts totaled $15.5 billion at September 30, 2026, up $2.5 billion, or 19%, from September 30, 2026 and $3.5 billion, or 29%, from December 31, 2025. The increase from both comparative dates includes $1.2 billion of interest-bearing transactions and savings deposits assumed in the OFB transaction. The variances are also reflective of organic growth and some shifting in mix within interest-bearing deposits and from noninterest-bearing deposits, driven in part by promotional money market product offerings to new and certain existing customers. Interest-bearing public fund deposits totaled $2.6 billion at September 30, 2026, down $309.0 million, or 11%, from June 30, 2026, and $646.0 million, or 20%, from December 31, 2025, mostly attributable to typical outflows as the calendar year elapses. Retail time deposits totaled $3.5 billion at September 30, 2026, up $174.4 million, or 5%, from June 30, 2026, and down $145.9 million, or 4%, from December 31, 2025. The variance from both comparative dates reflects $203.0 million of retail time deposits assumed in the OFB transaction. Excluding the impact of the OFB acquisition, retail time deposits declined from both comparative dates, mostly attributable to maturities that did not renew, reflective of the interest rate environment. We had no brokered time deposits at September 30, 2026, June 30, 2026 or December 31, 2025. The Company uses brokered deposits as one component of its funding strategy, subject to certain policies regarding the amount, term and interest rate.

 

The rate paid on interest-bearing deposits for the third quarter of 2026 was 2.33%, up 13 bps from 2.20% in the second quarter of 2026, reflective of interest rate movement and product pricing. Rates paid on deposits will vary based on prevailing interest rates and promotional rate offerings on the various product types. The following table sets forth average balances and weighted-average rates paid on deposits for the third and second quarters of 2026 and the third quarter of 2025.

Short-Term Borrowings

At September 30, 2026, short-term borrowings totaled $1.3 billion, down $266.7 million from June 30, 2026 and up $287.0 million from December 31, 2025, driven primarily by FHLB borrowings and reflective of funding needs. Average short-term borrowings of $1.5 billion in the third quarter of 2026 were down $467.4 million from the second quarter of 2026.

Short-term borrowings are a core portion of the Company’s funding strategy and can fluctuate depending on our funding needs and the sources utilized. Customer repurchase agreements and borrowings from the FHLB are the major sources of short-term borrowings. Customer repurchase agreements are offered mainly to commercial customers to assist them with their cash management strategies or to provide a temporary investment vehicle for their excess liquidity pending redeployment for corporate or investment purposes. While customer repurchase agreements provide a recurring source of funds to the Bank, amounts available will vary. FHLB borrowings are collateralized by certain residential mortgage and commercial real estate loans included in the Bank’s loan portfolio, subject to specific criteria. FHLB borrowings totaled $750 million at September 30, 2026, compared to $950 million at June 30, 2026 and $400 million at December 31, 2025.

Long-Term Debt

Long-term debt totaled $212.2 million at September 30, 2026, up $18.4 million from June 30, 2026 and $12.8 million from December 31, 2025. In the acquisition of OFB, we assumed subordinated notes payable with an aggregate principal amount of $30.0 million, a stated maturity date of September 1, 2031 and a fixed-to-floating interest rate of 3.875% through September 1, 2026, converting to three-month SOFR plus 322 basis points, reset quarterly thereafter. The notes did not quality as Tier 2 capital for regulatory capital ratio purposes. The subordinated notes purchase agreement permitted the Company, at its option, to redeem the notes on any scheduled interest payment date following assumption of this liability. The notes were redeemed at par on October 1, 2026.

Long-term debt at September 30, 2026 also includes subordinated notes payable with an aggregate principal amount of $172.5 million, a stated maturity of June 15, 2060, and a fixed rate of 6.25% per annum that qualify as Tier 2 capital of certain regulatory capital ratios. Subject to prior approval by the Federal Reserve, the Company may redeem these notes in whole or in part on any of its quarterly interest payment dates.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit

In the normal course of business, the Bank enters into financial instruments, such as commitments to extend credit and letters of credit, to meet the financing needs of its customers. Such instruments are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements until they are funded, although they expose the Bank to varying degrees of credit risk and interest rate risk in much the same way as

funded loans. Under regulatory capital guidelines, the Company and Bank must include unfunded commitments meeting certain criteria in risk-weighted capital calculations.

Commitments to extend credit include revolving commercial credit lines, non-revolving loan commitments issued mainly to finance the acquisition and development or construction of real property or equipment, and credit card and personal credit lines. The availability of funds under commercial credit lines and loan commitments generally depends on whether the borrower continues to meet credit standards established in the underlying contract and other contractual conditions. Loan commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee by the borrower. Credit card and personal credit lines are generally subject to cancellation if the borrower’s credit quality deteriorates. A number of commercial and personal credit lines are used only partially or, in some cases, not at all before they expire, and the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent our future cash requirements.

A substantial majority of the letters of credit are standby agreements that obligate the Bank to fulfill a customer’s financial commitments to a third party if the customer is unable to perform. The Bank issues standby letters of credit primarily to provide credit enhancement to its customers’ other commercial or public financing arrangements and to help them demonstrate financial capacity to vendors of essential goods and services.

The contractual amounts of these instruments reflect our exposure to credit risk. The Bank undertakes the same credit evaluation in making loan commitments and assuming conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments and may require collateral or other credit support. At September 30, 2026, the Company had a reserve for credit losses on unfunded lending commitments totaling $36.1 million.

The following table shows the commitments to extend credit and letters of credit at September 30, 2026 according to expiration date.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with those generally practiced within the banking industry which require management to make estimates and assumptions about future events. Estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, and the resulting estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of certain assets and liabilities not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

There were no material changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies, methodologies or estimates during the reporting period from those disclosed in its 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K, other than those related to acquisition accounting discussed below.

Acquisitions are accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Purchased assets, including identifiable intangible assets, and assumed liabilities are recorded at their respective acquisition date fair values. Management applies various valuation methodologies to these assets and liabilities which often involve a significant degree of judgment, particularly when liquid markets do not exist for the item being valued. Examples of such items include loans, deposits, identifiable intangible assets and certain other assets and liabilities acquired or assumed in business combinations. Management uses significant estimates and assumptions to value such items, including, among others, projected cash flows, repayment rates, credit loss rates, and discount rates. The valuation of other identifiable assets, including core deposit, requires significant assumptions such as projected attrition rates, growth rates, discount rates and other forward-looking factors. The purchase date valuations and any subsequent adjustments also determine the amount of goodwill or bargain purchase gain recognized in connection with the business combination. Valuation assumptions and estimates may also have to be revisited in connection with periodic assessments of possible value impairment, including impairment of goodwill, intangible assets and certain other long-lived assets. The use of different assumptions could produce significantly different valuation results, which could have material positive or negative effects on our results of operations. Discussion of the assumptions and estimates used to assess and determine fair values associated with our current acquisition can be found in Note 2 - Acquisition in Part 1, Item 1 of this document.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our primary market risk is interest rate risk that stems from uncertainty with respect to the absolute and relative levels of future market interest rates that affect our financial products and services. In an attempt to manage our exposure to interest rate risk, management measures the sensitivity of our net interest income and cash flows under various market interest rate scenarios, establishes interest rate risk management policies and implements asset/liability management strategies designed to promote a relatively stable net interest margin under varying rate environments.

Net Interest Income at Risk

The following table presents an analysis of our interest rate risk as measured by the estimated changes in net interest income resulting from an instantaneous and sustained parallel shift in rates at September 30, 2026. Shifts are measured in 100 basis point increments in a range from -500 to +500 basis points from base case, with -300 through +300 basis points presented in the table below. Our interest rate sensitivity modeling incorporates a number of assumptions including loan and deposit repricing characteristics, the rate of loan prepayments and other factors. The base scenario assumes that the current interest rate environment is held constant over a 24-month forecast period and is the scenario to which all others are compared in order to measure the change in net interest income. Policy limits on the change in net interest income under a variety of interest rate scenarios are approved by the Board of Directors. All policy scenarios assume a static volume forecast where the balance sheet is held constant, although other scenarios are modeled.

The results indicate a general asset sensitivity across most scenarios driven primarily by repricing of cash flows in the investment and loan portfolios. With short-term rates stabilizing, the funding mix continues a gradual shift to more rate sensitive deposits. This shift leads to lower overall net interest income at risk, as deposit repricing is expected to offset rate adjustments in the floating rate loan book. Furthermore, due to the funding mix shift, the Company is currently less sensitive to changes in short-term rate movements with interest rate risk being driven more by changes in the mid to long-term segment of the yield curve. When deemed prudent, management has taken actions to mitigate exposure to interest rate risk with on- or off-balance sheet financial instruments and intends to do so in the future. Possible actions include, but are not limited to, changes in the pricing of loan and deposit products, modifying the composition of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and adding to, modifying or terminating existing interest rate swap agreements or other financial instruments used for interest rate risk management purposes.

Even if interest rates change in the designated amounts, there can be no assurance that our assets and liabilities would perform as anticipated. Additionally, a change in the U.S. Treasury rates in the designated amounts accompanied by a change in the shape of the U.S. Treasury yield curve would cause significantly different changes to net interest income than indicated above. Strategic management of our balance sheet and earnings is fluid and would be adjusted to accommodate these movements. As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings are inherent in the methods of analysis presented above. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. Certain assets such as adjustable-rate loans have features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. Also, the ability of many borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase. All of these factors are considered in monitoring exposure to interest rate risk.

Economic Value of Equity (EVE)

EVE simulation involves calculating the present value of all future cash flows from assets and subtracting the present value of all future cash outflows from liabilities including the impact of off-balance sheet items such as interest rate hedges. This analysis results in a theoretical market value of the Bank's equity or EVE. Management’s focus on EVE analysis is not on the resulting calculation of EVE itself, but instead on the sensitivity of EVE to changes in market rates. Policy limits on the change in EVE under a variety of interest rate scenarios are approved by the Board of Directors. The following table presents an analysis of the change in the Bank’s

69


Table of Contents

 

EVE resulting from instantaneous and parallel shifts in rates as of September 30, 2026. Shifts are measured in 100 basis point increments ranging from -500 to +500 basis points from base case, with -300 through +300 basis points presented in table below.

The net changes in EVE presented in the preceding table are within the parameters approved by the Board of Directors. Because EVE measures the present value of cash flows over the estimated lives of instruments, the change in EVE does not directly correlate to the degree that earnings would be impacted over a shorter time horizon (i.e., the current year). Further, EVE does not consider factors such as future balance sheet growth, changes in product mix, changes in yield curve relationships, possible hedging activities, or changing product spreads, each of which could mitigate the adverse impact of changes in interest rates.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by the Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2026, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective. Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, identified no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three-month period ended September 30, 2026, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

As permitted by SEC guidance that an assessment of internal controls over financial reporting of a recently acquired business may be excluded from management’s evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures for up to a year from the date of acquisition, we have excluded OFB from management’s reporting on internal control over financial reporting for the quarter ended September 30, 2026. We evaluated the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting through the ongoing integration of OFB with that of the Company and made changes to our internal control framework, as necessary.
