Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Merchants Bancorp reported strong second-quarter 2026 results, with net income of $78.3 million, or $1.48 diluted EPS, up from $38.0 million, or $0.60, a year earlier and $67.7 million, or $1.25, in the first quarter of 2026. Net income growth was driven mainly by an 83% reduction in provision for credit losses to $9.2 million and a 6% increase in net interest income to $136.5 million.

Total assets reached $21.2 billion, up 9% from December 31, 2025, while deposits grew to $14.3 billion. Core deposits rose 15% from December 31, 2025 to $13.0 billion and represented 91% of total deposits. Credit quality improved: criticized loans declined 12% since March 31, 2026 to $444.7 million, nonperforming loans fell to $205.6 million, or 1.67% of loans receivable, and delinquent loans decreased to $208.0 million, or 1.23% of total loans.

Liquidity remained high, supported by $5.5 billion of unused borrowing capacity; together with liquid assets, total available liquidity was $13.0 billion, or 61% of assets. Profitability metrics strengthened, including an annualized return on average assets of 1.52%, return on average tangible common equity of 14.95%, an efficiency ratio of 40.20%, and tangible book value per common share of $39.93, the 30th consecutive quarterly record.

Positive

  • Net income rose 106% year over year to $78.3 million, with diluted EPS increasing to $1.48 from $0.60 in the second quarter of 2025.
  • Provision for credit losses fell 83% year over year to $9.2 million, reflecting improved asset quality and materially boosting earnings.
  • Credit metrics improved, with criticized loans down 12% since March 31, 2026 and nonperforming loans reduced to 1.67% of loans receivable.
  • Profitability and capital strengthened, with annualized ROA at 1.52%, return on average tangible common equity at 14.95%, and tangible book value per share at a record $39.93.

Negative

  • Gain on sale of loans was $13,160 thousand, down 44% year over year, contributing to a 10% decline in total noninterest income versus the second quarter of 2025.

Filing Explained

Credit metrics improved, but concentrated charge-offs and 51-day brokered certificates add specific credit and funding mechanics to the completed quarter.

This July 28, 2026 Form 8-K reports Merchants Bancorp's completed second-quarter results under Item 2.02 and furnishes the press release as Exhibit 99.1. For existing common holders, the added structural detail is that the reported credit improvement came with $16.5 million of second-quarter charge-offs, nearly 95% associated with two multifamily loan relationships.

Management described credit trends as improving, but the same release identifies a concentration within those charge-offs rather than a broad breakdown by loan type. The filing also says credit-default-swap coverage applied to 6% of criticized loans and 10% of delinquent loans, while the company remained required to carry an allowance for credit losses on protected loans.

The June 30, 2026 funding line to follow is brokered certificates of deposit: brokered deposits were $1.3 billion, and those certificates had a weighted-average remaining duration of 51 days.

criticized loans receivable financial
"Overall, criticized loans receivable of $444.7 million declined 12%..."
credit default swaps financial
"executed credit protection arrangements through credit default swaps and a credit-linked note..."
A credit default swap is a contract where one party pays a regular fee to another in exchange for a payout if a borrower (like a company or government) fails to repay its debt—think of it as an insurance policy on a loan. Investors use these contracts to protect against losses, to express views on a borrower’s financial health, or to speculate, and heavy buying or selling of this protection can change bond prices and signal rising or falling credit risk.
tangible book value per common share financial
"tangible book value per share of $39.93, marking our 30th consecutive quarter..."
A per-share measure of the company’s tangible net asset value available to common shareholders after removing intangible items (like goodwill, brand value, and patents) and any preferred shareholder claims. Think of it as the amount each common share would get if the company sold only its physical and financial assets and settled priority claims. Investors use it as a conservative baseline to judge whether a stock is cheaply priced relative to the company’s hard-asset backing.
efficiency ratio financial
"Efficiency ratio 40.20% for the quarter, down from 43.16%..."
A measure of how much a company spends to produce each dollar of revenue, usually shown as operating expenses divided by revenue and expressed as a percentage. Think of it as a household’s budget: a lower percentage means more of each dollar earned stays as profit, while a higher number means costs are eating into returns. Investors use it to judge cost control and compare how efficiently companies turn revenue into earnings, especially in banks and financial firms.
net interest margin financial
"The 11 basis point decline in net interest margin was primarily driven..."
Net interest margin measures how much a bank earns from lending and investing compared with what it pays for funding, expressed as a percentage of its interest-earning assets. Think of it like a grocery store’s markup: it shows the gap between buying cost and selling price per dollar of goods — here, the cost is interest paid and the sale is interest received. Investors watch it because a higher margin usually means a bank is more profitable and better at managing interest rate and credit conditions.
Net income $78.3 million up 106% vs second quarter of 2025
Diluted EPS $1.48 up 147% vs second quarter of 2025
Net interest income $136.5 million up 6% vs second quarter of 2025
Provision for credit losses $9.2 million down 83% vs second quarter of 2025

CARMEL, Indiana – (PR Newswire) - Merchants Bancorp (the “Company” or “Merchants”) (Nasdaq: MBIN), parent company of Merchants Bank, today reported second quarter of 2026 net income of $78.3 million, or diluted earnings per common share of $1.48. This compared to $38.0 million, or diluted earnings per common share of $0.60 in the second quarter of 2025, and compared to $67.7 million, or diluted earnings per common share of $1.25 in the first quarter of 2026.

 

“Our second quarter results reflected continued strength across our businesses, highlighted by assets reaching a new high of $21.2 billion and tangible book value per share of $39.93, marking our 30th consecutive quarter of record tangible book value. Credit trends also improved during the quarter, with our fifth consecutive quarterly decline in criticized loans, which reached their lowest level since mid-2024, along with decreases in nonperforming loans, delinquencies, charge-offs and provision for credit losses. These results demonstrate the strength of our balance sheet, the benefit of improved credit metrics, and ongoing momentum in our business,” said Michael F. Petrie, Chairman and CEO of Merchants.

 

Michael J. Dunlap, President and Chief Operating Officer of Merchants, added, “With 10-year Treasury rates remaining elevated, our diversified business model continues to create multiple sources of earnings support in the current rate environment. While the higher rates may pressure near-term gain on sale of loans, loans in our robust pipeline are still expected to convert into permanent loans over time. Meanwhile, higher rates continue to support valuations on our servicing rights and derivatives, providing an offset to pressure on gain on sale revenue. Together with strong liquidity, capital, and improving credit trends, this positions us well to continue generating earnings growth and long-term shareholder value.”

 

Net income for the second quarter of 2026 was $78.3 million, an increase of $40.3 million, or 106%, compared to $38.0 million in the second quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily driven by a $43.8 million, or 83%, decrease in the provision for credit losses, reflecting improved asset quality.

 

Net income for the second quarter of 2026 was $78.3 million, an increase of $10.6 million, or 16%, from $67.7 million in the first quarter of 2026. The improvement was driven by a $14.0 million, or 12%, increase in net interest income after provision for credit losses.

Total Assets

 

Total assets of $21.2 billion at June 30, 2026 increased $908.2 million, or 4%, compared to March 31, 2026, and increased $1.8 billion, or 9%, compared to December 31, 2025. The increases for both periods were primarily due to higher balances in the multi-family and warehouse portfolios, as well as revolving lines of credit collateralized by mortgage servicing rights that are included in the commercial and commercial real estate portfolio.

 

Asset Quality

 

The allowance for credit losses on loans of $75.8 million, as of June 30, 2026, decreased $1.0 million, or 1%, compared to March 31, 2026, and decreased $7.5 million, or 9%, compared to December 31, 2025. The decreases primarily reflected charge-offs on loans that had specific reserves.

 

During the second quarter of 2026, the Company recorded charge-offs totaling $16.5 million and had $4.8 million in recoveries. Nearly 95% of the charge-offs in the second quarter of 2026 were associated with two multi-family loan relationships. This compared to $46.1 million in charge-offs and no recoveries during the second quarter of 2025 and $23.0 million in charge-offs and $616,000 in recoveries in the first quarter of 2026.

 

Overall, criticized loans receivable of $444.7 million declined $60.8 million, or 12%, compared to March 31, 2026, and declined $63.5 million, or 12%, compared to December 31, 2025. These declines are consistent with the Company’s expectation that migration to criticized status would stabilize and eventually subside, supported by ongoing portfolio management efforts. As of June 30, 2026, 6% of the criticized loans were covered by credit default swaps.

 

As of June 30, 2026, all substandard loans have been evaluated for impairment, and these loans have specific reserves of $3.9 million. The Company believes the loan portfolio continues to be well collateralized.

 

Nonperforming loans decreased $41.8 million, or 17%, compared to March 31, 2026, primarily due to loans being paid in full. As of June 30, 2026, nonperforming loans were $205.6 million, or 1.67% of loans receivable, compared to $247.5 million, or 2.16%, as of March 31, 2026, and $197.8 million, or 1.79%, as of December 31, 2025.

 

Total delinquent loans of $208.0 million decreased $34.6 million, or 14%, compared to March 31, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, 10% of the delinquent loans were covered by credit default swaps.

 

The Company has taken additional steps to reduce credit risk through loan sale and securitization activities since 2019. Since 2023, the Company has executed credit protection arrangements through credit default swaps and a credit-linked note to reduce potential loss exposure, with coverage ranging from 13% to 15% of the unpaid principal balance for each arrangement. Despite having credit protection on these loans, the Company is required to carry an allowance for credit losses on loans held for investment. As of June 30, 2026, the remaining balance of loans protected by credit default swaps was $2.2 billion.

Total Deposits

 

Total deposits of $14.3 billion at June 30, 2026, increased $1.3 billion, or 10%, compared to March 31, 2026, and $1.2 billion, or 9%, compared to December 31, 2025. The increase in both periods primarily reflected the growth in core deposits.

 

Core deposits of $13.0 billion at June 30, 2026, reflected increases of $891.3 million, or 7%, from March 31, 2026, and $1.7 billion, or 15%, from December 31, 2025. Core deposits represented 91% of total deposits at June 30, 2026, 93% of total deposits at March 31, 2026, and 87% of total deposits at December 31, 2025.

 

Brokered deposits of $1.3 billion at June 30, 2026, increased $411.3 million, or 46%, from March 31, 2026, and decreased $459.5 million, or 26%, from December 31, 2025. As of June 30, 2026, brokered certificates of deposit had a weighted average remaining duration of 51 days.

 

Liquidity

 

The Company maintained strong liquidity, supported by substantial borrowing capacity, including unused lines of credit totaling $5.5 billion as of June 30, 2026, compared to $3.9 billion at March 31, 2026, and $5.3 billion at December 31, 2025.

 

The Company’s most liquid assets include cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, including interest-earning demand deposits, mortgage loans in process of securitization, loans held for sale, and warehouse lines of credit included in loans receivable. Combined with unused borrowing capacity of $5.5 billion, these totaled $13.0 billion, or 61%, of its $21.2 billion total assets as of June 30, 2026.

 

This liquidity position provides the Company with flexibility to manage funding costs, interest expense, and asset levels. In addition, the Company’s business model is designed to continuously sell or securitize a significant portion of its loans, which provides flexibility in managing its liquidity.

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended

 

June 30, 2026 and 2025

 

Net Interest Income of $136.5 million increased $7.8 million, or 6%, compared to $128.7 million. The increase reflected lower interest expense on certificates of deposit, partially offset by higher interest expense on interest-bearing checking accounts and lower interest income on securities held to maturity.

 

·Net interest margin of 2.81% decreased two basis points compared to 2.83%.

 

·Interest rate spread of 2.43% increased ten basis points compared to 2.33%.

 

Interest Income of $294.1 million decreased $10.3 million, or 3%, compared to $304.4 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to lower average balances and yields on securities held to maturity, as well as lower average yields on higher average balances on loans and loans held for sale.

 

·Average balances of $1.4 billion for securities held to maturity decreased $174.1 million, or 11%, compared to $1.6 billion.

 

·Average yields on securities held to maturity of 5.19% decreased 72 basis points compared to 5.91%.

 

·Average yields on loans and loans held for sale of 6.26% decreased 66 basis points compared to 6.92%.

 

·Average balances of $16.2 billion for loans and loans held for sale increased $1.4 billion, or 9%, compared to $14.8 billion.

 

Interest Expense of $157.5 million decreased 10% compared to $175.7 million. The decrease reflected lower average balances and rates on certificates of deposit, partially offset by higher average balances on interest-bearing checking accounts.

 

·Average balances of $1.4 billion for certificates of deposit decreased $1.7 billion, or 55%, compared to $3.1 billion.

 

·Average interest rates of 3.85% for certificates of deposit decreased 74 basis points compared to 4.59%.

 

·Average balances on interest-bearing checking accounts of $7.9 billion increased $1.7 billion, or 28%, compared to $6.2 billion.

 

·Average interest rates of 3.43% for interest-bearing checking accounts decreased 53 basis points compared to 3.96%.

Provision for Credit Losses was $9.2 million, a decrease of 83% compared to $53.0 million, reflecting improved asset quality, including lower charge-offs and lower specific reserves.

 

Noninterest Income of $45.7 million decreased $4.8 million, or 10%, compared to $50.5 million. The decline was primarily due to a decrease of $10.2 million, or 44%, in gain on sale of loans, partially offset by $5.9 million, or 95%, increase in loan servicing fees.

 

·Loan servicing fees included a $6.0 million positive fair market value adjustment to servicing rights, with a $1.4 million positive adjustment in the Banking segment and a $4.6 million positive adjustment in the Multi-family Mortgage Banking segment. This compared to a $258,000 positive fair market value adjustment to servicing rights in the prior period with a $487,000 negative adjustment in the Banking segment and a $745,000 positive adjustment in the Multi-family Mortgage Banking segment. The value of servicing rights generally increases in rising 10-year interest rate environments and declines in falling interest rate environments due to expected prepayments and earning rates that are influenced by projected future interest rates on escrow deposits.

 

·Other noninterest income also included a $1.9 million positive fair market value adjustment to floor derivatives, reflected in the Warehouse segment, compared to a $4.3 million positive fair market value adjustment in the prior period.

 

Noninterest Expense of $73.2 million decreased $4.1 million, or 5%, compared to $77.3 million. The lower expenses were primarily due to a $4.2 million decrease in salaries and employee benefits from lower commissions and bonuses.

 

Comparison of Operating Results for the Three Months Ended

 

June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026

 

Net Interest Income of $136.5 million increased $7.9 million, or 6%, compared to $128.6 million. The increase reflected higher interest income on loans and loans held for sale, partially offset by higher interest expense on borrowings and deposits.

 

·Net interest margin of 2.81% decreased 11 basis points compared to 2.92%.

 

·Interest rate spread of 2.43% decreased seven basis points compared to 2.50%.

 

The 11 basis point decline in net interest margin was primarily driven by changes in loan mix, as growth was weighted more toward loans held for sale and warehouse lending than the higher-yielding multi-family and healthcare portfolios. While this mix shift lowered the reported margin, the growth remained profitable and contributed to higher net interest income and overall earnings.

Interest Income of $294.1 million increased $23.6 million, or 9%, compared to $270.5 million, primarily reflecting higher average balances at lower average yields on loans and loans held for sale.

 

·Average balances of $16.2 billion for loans and loans held for sale increased 10% compared to $14.7 billion.

 

·Average yields on loans and loans held for sale of 6.26% decreased eight basis points compared to 6.34%, primarily reflecting the same loan mix shift discussed above.

 

Interest Expense of $157.5 million increased 11% compared to $141.9 million. The increase was primarily driven by higher average balances at lower interest rates on borrowings and higher average balances at higher average interest rates on interest-bearing checking accounts.

 

·Average balances of $4.0 billion on borrowings increased $880.5 million, or 28%, compared to $3.1 billion.

 

·Average interest rates of 4.06% on borrowings decreased by eight basis points compared to 4.14%.

 

·Average balances of $7.9 billion for interest-bearing checking accounts increased $692.0 million, or 10%, compared to $7.2 billion.

 

·Average interest rates on interest-bearing checking accounts of 3.43% increased by a basis point compared to 3.42%.

 

Provision for Credit Losses was $9.2 million, a decrease of 40% compared to $15.3 million, reflecting improved asset quality, including lower charge-offs and lower specific reserves.

 

Noninterest Income of $45.7 million decreased 2% compared to $46.6 million. Results reflected a decrease of $3.1 million, or 21%, in loan servicing fees, and a $1.5 million, or 11%, decrease in other noninterest income. Partially offsetting these declines was a $3.8 million, or 122%, increase in syndication and asset management fees.

·Loan servicing fees included a $6.0 million positive fair market value adjustment to servicing rights, with a $1.4 million positive adjustment in the Banking segment and a $4.6 million positive adjustment in the Multi-family Mortgage Banking segment. This compared to an $8.9 million positive fair market value adjustment to servicing rights in the prior period, with a $1.6 million positive adjustment in the Banking segment and a $7.4 million positive adjustment in the Multi-family Mortgage Banking segment. The value of servicing rights generally increases in rising 10-year interest rate environments and declines in falling interest rate environments due to expected prepayments and earning rates that are influenced by projected future interest rates on escrow deposits.

 

·Other noninterest income included a $1.9 million positive fair market value adjustment to floor derivatives, reflected in the Warehouse segment, compared to a $2.7 million positive fair market value adjustment to derivatives in the prior period.

 

Noninterest Expense of $73.2 million decreased $2.4 million, 3%, compared to $75.6 million, primarily due to a $2.5 million decrease in deposit insurance expenses from improved asset quality.
