factored receivables financial
"Factored receivables - transportation concentration | 97 %"
EBITDA margin financial
"EBITDA margin for the quarter improved to 25.7 %"
EBITDA margin is the share of each dollar of sales that a company keeps as operating cash profit before interest, taxes, and accounting for equipment wear and long-term investments. Think of it like the cash a store has left from every sale after paying day-to-day running costs but before paying rent, loan interest or replacing old machinery. Investors use it to compare core profitability and operational efficiency across companies by removing financing and accounting differences.
Network engagement financial
"Network engagement was 65.6 % in Q2 2026"
mortgage warehouse excess rebates financial
"deposit interest expense recognized on these deposits was $12.3 million"
non-performing assets financial
"Non-performing assets to total assets | 1.29 %"
Loans or other credit exposures that are not producing expected income because borrowers have stopped making scheduled payments for a significant period (commonly around 90 days). Think of it like a business lending money that has gone quiet — the cash flow stops while the lender still carries the debt on its books. High levels of non-performing assets matter to investors because they reduce a lender’s earnings, tie up capital that could be used for growth, and signal higher risk of future losses.

Fellow Shareholders,
For the second quarter, we recorded net income to common stockholders of $10.6 million, or $0.44 per diluted share. Earnings for the quarter were affected by certain non-core items detailed at the end of this letter, which in aggregate reduced EPS by $0.13. The majority of this non-core expense is related to our ongoing efficiency initiatives, which should continue to create positive operating leverage for Triumph going forward.
CEO Summary: The Metrics That Matter Most
| North Star Metrics | Long-Term Target | 2Q26* | 1Q26* | △ From Prior Quarter | |||||||||||||||||||
| Transportation Revenue Growth | > 15% | 30.9 | % | 23.5 | % | 7.4 | % | ||||||||||||||||
| Factoring Operating Margin | > 40% | 39.4 | % | 34.7 | % | 4.7 | % | ||||||||||||||||
| Payments EBITDA Margin (ex-LoadPay) | > 50% | 34.0 | % | 34.0 | % | — | % | ||||||||||||||||
| Intelligence Gross Margin | > 85% | 84.7 | % | 86.1 | % | (1.4 | %) | ||||||||||||||||
* Growth figures are YoY, all other metrics are for the quarter indicated.
The annual and quarterly comparisons among these important metrics are almost universally favorable. Factoring margin is less than 1% short of our long-term goal. Add to that excellent growth in LoadPay, exciting product launches in Intelligence, positive trends in Banking, and continuing efficiency gains across the enterprise, and it is the recipe for an improved quarter and, much more importantly, positive overall momentum.
As a reminder, we introduced our North Star metrics in 1Q. These metrics are the dashboard that tells us how the economic engine of our value chain is working. A year ago, I wrote about Triumph’s value chain in our 2Q25 letter. Our value chain is the sequence and design of our transportation products and services that create value for carriers, brokers, factors, and shippers. Broadly speaking, Triumph's value chain moves money and data along the line of supply from shippers to carriers and injects liquidity as needed along the way.
1
Our metrics for 2Q26 show that the economic engine of our value chain is performing well. Even though Payments EBITDA margin was flat QoQ due to a few unique items, overall momentum is positive. In addition, market conditions have become more favorable for Triumph’s earnings. While that is true, the underlying truth is that over 30% of the revenue growth we have experienced in transportation year-to-date has come from organic growth, not just market tailwinds.
In the future, I expect the North Star metric for Payments EBITDA margin to be reported inclusive of LoadPay. I further expect that gross margin for Intelligence will be replaced by a measure of revenue growth and/or margin for that segment. For at least the remainder of 2026, however, our North Star metrics will remain as they are.
What Has Changed in the Freight Market and Where Do We Go from Here?
There has been more than enough ink spilled by experts and interested observers on the structural changes in the freight market. We have included a deeper dive into this topic in the Freight Market Update section below. For purposes of the CEO Summary, I will boil it down to a few points:
•The reduction in supply is real and unlikely to reverse in the near term. Regulatory enforcement, industry efforts to combat fraud, and the emergence of a new era of vicarious liability for brokers and shippers have collectively removed capacity from the market and thus altered the supply-demand balance. Over the long run, the "right" rate for freight should allow a well-run, law-abiding carrier to earn their cost of capital. For much of the last four years, the industry has operated below that level for carriers, both large and small. Freight markets are inherently cyclical, and rates rarely remain at the "right" equilibrium for long, but we believe the equilibrium itself has moved higher due to supply constraints.
•Demand is only part of the story this time. The biggest difference between this freight cycle and every upcycle I have seen before is that it has not been fueled by a surge in freight demand. Demand is better than many people think or fear or predict, but it is not strong by historical standards. Housing is below long-term averages, food and beverage is weak, automotive freight is only modestly supportive, and consumer demand has been uneven. The obvious bright spot has been data center construction, which has created a meaningful amount of freight demand.
•The winners of the next cycle will not likely be the winners of the last one. For most of the last decade, cheap capacity has been the dominant variable in freight. Today, compliance, fraud prevention, liability management, and operational transparency increasingly determine who can profitably participate in the market. The cost of doing things the right way has increased, but so has the penalty for not doing so. We believe the industry's increasing complexity favors companies that help participants navigate that complexity. It is too simplistic to say that this exclusively benefits large fleets – the benefit belongs to those who can demonstrate their ability to operate in a compliant manner. At Triumph, we are not simply positioning for a tighter freight market; we are positioning for a different freight market.
The Impact of Freight Rates on Earnings
It is important to understand how the freight market (which affects revenue per mile, and thus, the average size of invoices we purchase and finance) affects Triumph. Not all our transportation-related revenue is tied directly to freight invoice size. Portions of our business – particularly Payments, Intelligence, and Audit – generate revenue through transaction fees and subscriptions. That said, our Factoring business remains a significant contributor to earnings, and it benefits meaningfully when invoice sizes increase. The operating cost structure of Factoring is directionally fixed, which means increases in invoice size tend to flow through to revenue with little corresponding increase in expense beyond funding costs. As a result, stronger freight pricing can have a significant impact on our earnings even when freight volumes are growing only modestly.
For the quarter, Factoring transportation invoice prices averaged $2,160, a 23.4% increase over the 4Q25 average. For the first 17 days of July, invoice prices have averaged $2,210. The month of July is typically soft from a demand perspective compared to 2Q, and we believe relative monthly softness in demand to be the case again this year. Thus, we believe that continuing upwards pressure on invoice sizes is a function of limited supply rather than increasing demand.
A $100 move in invoice prices moves our annual pretax income by approximately $7.0 million. The goals I shared in January contemplated a 4Q26 annualized earnings exit rate of approximately $2.00 per share based on an expected average invoice size of $1,800. All other things being equal, if average invoice prices for 2026 are $2,200 or more, the implied earnings trajectory is meaningfully higher.

The Same Capital Allocation Question Five Years Later
Considering the foregoing, our commitment to investors is that most of the earnings benefit from a stronger market will fall to the bottom line. Investors deserve that. "Most" is a directional statement that might lead to a related question – how much of "most" of Triumph’s earnings are we reinvesting in the business, whether the freight market is favorable or unfavorable?
Before answering, let me connect this topic back to the opening of the letter. The value chain is the engine, and the North Star metrics are the dashboard indicators for the engine's performance. Capital allocation – the topic I am addressing here – is how we improve the engine over time. I think it is important that investors understand the way that Triumph thinks about this topic, so I will demonstrate it with a historical comparison. Before I do, I want to point out that no single example accounts for all the ways that Triumph is continually improving its products and value chain.
In 3Q21, we reported earnings of $0.94 per share for the quarter. At that time, Factoring was generating a roughly 7% pretax ROAA on average invoice transportation prices of $2,195.[1] As good as those numbers were, our total earnings would have been even higher but for an annualized pretax earnings drag of ~$20 million from our investment in TriumphPay (now reported as our Payments segment). At the time, there were investors who thought our efforts to create a payments network were smart and others who thought it was foolish. We plowed on. We had to recalibrate multiple times along the way, but as we sit today, I believe there is universal acknowledgment that our Payments segment has been a success. It is profitable and growing. Beyond its current earnings and future earnings power, our Payments segment also became the connective tissue that allowed the rest of the value chain to emerge.
Why is this bit of history relevant? Because some five years later, history is at least rhyming if not repeating itself. We now hold ~$2 billion of factored receivables, which is 50X the size of the business we bought in 2012. Its pretax ROAA is ~5%, and the composition of our earnings looks more like a financial technology company than it did five years ago. On the other hand, the combined annual drag on pretax earnings of our Intelligence segment and our LoadPay line of business is currently ~$20 million, which is remarkably similar to the early stages of Payments. If we were to curtail investments in those two lines of business and the freight market stayed tight, we could approach $4.00 per share of earnings in short order. This leaves us facing a decision like the one we faced five years ago: maximizing near-term earnings or continuing to invest in businesses we believe can materially increase Triumph's long-term value. Our choice is to invest and let the results of those investments speak for themselves over time. We are choosing that because we believe LoadPay and Intelligence are important to our value chain and capable of producing high margin and durable revenue.
We have never believed that the purpose of a public company is to maximize the next four quarters of earnings at the expense of future value. We believe our job is to allocate resources and capital in a manner which maximizes intrinsic value over many years while generating positive earnings along the way. That philosophy produced the growth in Factoring and the Payments business we have today. It is the same philosophy guiding our investments in LoadPay and Intelligence.

1.Analysis of Financial and Operational Performance for the Quarter
2.A New Denominator: $135 is the New $110
3.LoadPay Update
Analysis of Financial and Operational Performance for the Quarter. Revenue grew 29.4% YoY to $89.2 million, annualized. On a quarterly basis, revenue grew 16.7%, with contributions coming from contractual price increases, increased supply chain finance volumes, and seasonality. EBITDA margin for the quarter improved to 25.7%, up from 24.5% in 1Q26 and 13.9% in 2Q25. Ex-LoadPay, EBITDA margin for the quarter was 34.0%, unchanged from 1Q26. But for some transitory expenses in the quarter, EBITDA margin would have improved by a little over 3%. It will not be perfectly linear, but we absolutely expect margin expansion from here. At maturity, we also expect LoadPay to be accretive to overall Payments margin.

*Broker Revenue per Invoice is calculated using unique broker invoice volume, referring to Invoices from our broker Payments and Audit services as well as our Intelligence services to brokers, and broker revenue, referring to revenue generated by our broker Payments and Audit services (Broker Fee Income + Quickpay Interest Income) + broker Intelligence revenue.
**PAR indicates product attachment rate and measures cross-selling of Payments, Audit, and Intelligence across our broker clients.
For the second quarter of 2026, the dollar-volume of Payments increased due to the seasonal increase in volume and the market-driven increase in invoice prices. We generally charge for Payments on a per invoice basis, so invoice counts are a better gauge of revenue growth than Payments volumes in this segment.
In the chart below, we graphically highlight the continued revenue growth and its trend over the last eight quarters against the backdrop of our Payment volumes. We have generated a ~27% CAGR in revenue over the last two years.
A New Denominator: $135 is the New $110. In the first quarter of 2024, we sized the brokered freight market at $110 billion, which incorporated the pullback we saw in spot and contract rates from the pandemic and reflected significant inflation. Since then, inflation has remained steadily above Fed targets, and 2Q has seen dramatic upward pressure on
4
spot and contract rates again. Our annualized broker payment volume in 2Q was $49.4 billion, and Network engagement was $88.5 billion, annualized. These increases were the result of a mix of organic growth and a significant increase in spot and contract rates. Due to the increase in market rates, we need to recalibrate the denominator for our market penetration assessment, or it risks becoming disingenuous. Therefore, we are updating the addressable market for 2Q from $110 billion to $135 billion. It is possible that we will need to revise this denominator higher in 3Q. If we considered June only (instead of the entire 2Q), the addressable market would be ~$145 billion on annualized broker volumes of $53.7 billion in Payments.
LoadPay Update. LoadPay revenue growth was 49.2% for the quarter, and we crossed over 10,000 accounts, both of which are very encouraging. We are still early in the journey, but growth in accounts, active usage, and revenue per active carrier account gives us confidence that LoadPay can become more than a feature; it can become a durable carrier operating platform.
Gross revenue was $652 thousand, annualized revenue per account was $281, and annualized revenue per active carrier account was $707. As a reminder, our target annual revenue for active carrier accounts is $750. For the quarter, the percentage of active carrier accounts was 39.2% of all accounts, and the total number of accounts was 10,204. In the chart below, we graphically highlight these elements over the last six quarters.
At the end of Q2, we introduced the ability for carriers to complete their factoring workflows in LoadPay, enabling customers to get more work done in a single web or mobile application. This is a major step in product advancement with more to come as we continue to embed our industry-leading carrier solutions within LoadPay, including document management, insurance, equipment finance, factoring, and payments to deliver a superior carrier experience.
Factoring
1.Analysis of Financial and Operational Performance for the Quarter
2.Carrier Health and the Effects of Size
Analysis of Financial and Operational Performance for the Quarter. The Factoring segment delivered pretax operating income of $20.9 million. Revenue increased 26.9% QoQ, and pretax operating margin was 39.4%, which is just shy of our North Star target. To prevent unnecessary confusion, let me be clear that we intend the target as more of a floor than a ceiling for all our North Star metrics.
Total purchased volume reached $4.1 billion for the quarter, a 26.2% increase over 1Q26, and 43.3% over the same quarter in 2025. Beyond those impressive headlines, I am very encouraged that our Factoring invoice volumes increased 10.2% YoY, demonstrating continued success in attracting and retaining carriers in a market with flat demand. During 2Q, the average transportation invoice was $2,160 – up $263 from 1Q, and $497 higher than 2Q25.

Carrier Health and the Effects of Size. Factoring was our original transportation business and one of the clearest beneficiaries of the current freight environment. Each quarter, we evaluate this business through the metrics of purchased volume, average invoice size, client growth, credit performance, margin, and the extent to which it contributes to our broader liquidity solutions strategy.
Our Factoring portfolio continues to reflect the different utilization between larger (>7 trucks) and smaller (≤7 trucks) carrier cohorts. In 2Q, larger carriers represented 75% of invoice volume, while making up only 15% of client count. By contrast, small carriers continue to represent the largest number of our client relationships (~85%). YoY, small carrier purchase volume declined 1.21%, and invoice volume declined 2.49%, even as client count increased in this cohort. Small carriers remain under pressure in our opinion. There are several reasons for this, including the recent SCOTUS Montgomery decision on broker liability among them. A healthy market should not simply transfer distress from one vertical to another; it should allow law-abiding carriers with safe operating records of any size to earn their cost of capital.
Industry observers might find it interesting that the average age of operating authority across our carrier portfolio is approximately 43 months. Smaller carriers average 38.9 months, and larger carriers average 45 months.
Based upon the composition of our Factoring portfolio, we estimate that 65% of our exposure comes from the spot market, with the remaining 35% from the contract market. This reflects the portfolio’s broker-heavy debtor mix, with brokers representing approximately 72% of our accounts receivable. While not all broker freight is spot freight, the portfolio is meaningfully more sensitive to spot market conditions than a shipper direct portfolio.
Last quarter, we introduced a chart comparing back-office FTEs with the number of invoices purchased. The purpose of the chart is to highlight meaningful efficiency gains from our technology investments in Factoring. We expect that trend to continue.

4.Freight Market Update: Structural Reset or Cyclical Recovery
Analysis of Financial and Operational Performance for the Quarter. Intelligence delivered a mixed quarter, with stable reported revenue, continued high gross margins, and improved new-logo activity, offset by customer churn and lower ARR exiting June. Total revenue was flat QoQ at $2.4 million, while gross margin remained strong at ~85%. We remain optimistic about the revenue and margin trajectory for this business in 2026 and beyond even as we acknowledge the uneven start.

In addition to the opportunity for high margin and durable segment revenue, Intelligence is also strategically important to Triumph’s value chain. Our customers and prospects regularly express interest in the output of our data as they seek to improve their competitive position. We are fine-tuning our products to meet these inquiries – in general, our objective is to convert transactional data into high-impact decision tools for the market.
New Intelligence Products. On the topic of delivering decisioning tools, we have expanded the Triumph Intelligence platform with the launch of RFP Manager and Capacity Intelligence. We built both offerings on the unique data advantage created by the Triumph Network, and both reflect our strategy of turning transportation data into practical workflows which improve execution, protect margins, and create measurable customer value.
RFP Manager transforms what has traditionally been a manual, spreadsheet-driven process into a structured workflow for contract freight procurement. The product combines long-term pricing intelligence, broker-specific buying patterns, and real freight transaction data to help customers evaluate opportunities faster, price with greater confidence, and improve consistency across contract bids. By bringing workflow management and predictive pricing intelligence together in a single solution, RFP Manager helps brokers move from fragmented processes to more disciplined and data-driven contract pricing.
During the quarter, we also launched Capacity Intelligence, a strategic capacity management solution that helps brokers build more reliable and profitable carrier networks. Rather than focusing on transactional freight coverage, Capacity Intelligence helps customers identify high-value lanes, uncover the most relevant carrier relationships, and manage carrier outreach and bidding activities within a repeatable workflow. By combining a broker’s own operating history with performance signals and capacity insights derived from the Triumph Network, the product enables customers to move beyond one-off carrier transactions and build more durable, relationship-driven capacity strategies.
The launch of RFP Manager and Capacity Intelligence represents the next of several steps in our strategy to transform Triumph’s transportation data assets into actionable intelligence. As we continue to expand the ways customers can leverage insights from the Triumph Network, we are also creating new tools which provide broader visibility into freight market conditions and trends. This next evolution extends beyond workflow and decision support, establishing a foundation for market intelligence built on real freight transactions at scale.
Introduction to Triumph Freight Market Indices. In addition to new products, we are also introducing an initial set of Triumph Freight Market Indices during 3Q. We designed these indices to provide a transaction-backed view of freight market conditions. These are:
•Triumph Broker Buy Rate Index – Measures the changes in the rate-per-mile for linehaul and fuel for long-haul trucking rates by transport type.
•Triumph Broker Margin Index – Measures the average gross margin percent across all shipments by transport type.
•Triumph Truckload Market Volume Index – Measures the change in total monthly volumes across all shipment types indexed to the first month of the reporting period across all brokers with 13 contributing months of volume.
7
•Triumph Broker Total Margin Index – Measures the change in total gross margin indexed to the first month of the reporting period across all brokers with 13 contributing months of gross margin.
Triumph is in a unique position to produce these insights because of the transaction-level data flowing through our Network. Freight markets remain difficult to interpret because many available indicators are fragmented, lagged, or disconnected from observed transaction activity. By applying a disciplined methodology to this data, Triumph Intelligence can deliver more transparent market signals to clients, partners, and market participants while creating additional long-term value from Triumph’s platform.
The June 2026 Triumph Broker Total Margin and Triumph Truckload Market Volume Indices are worth highlighting here because they reveal information that is very hard to get elsewhere. These indices measure changes in shipment volume and total broker gross margin dollars across a set of brokers, reducing noise from changes in network composition and allowing us to observe underlying market trends more directly. Importantly, the Triumph Broker Total Margin Index measures total gross margin dollars, not simply margin percentage per load, providing a broader view of broker earnings power across the market.
In June, year-over-year comparisons showed a 9% increase in shipment volume and a 22% increase in total gross margin, exceeding what many industry observers predicted following the Montgomery ruling. Recent DOT enforcement actions, which began in 4Q25, appear to be contributing to changes in shipper route guides and broader routing behavior. These changes may be creating a cascading market effect: higher tender rejections, more spot opportunities for brokers, and more frequent renegotiation of contract rates directly with carriers. While average per-load margins remained below typical levels in June (at 10% to 12% across transport types), rising buy-rate inflation and higher shipment volumes contributed to stronger total gross margin dollars.
Freight Market Update: Structural Reset or Cyclical Recovery? The central question in freight today is whether the changes we are seeing are cyclical, structural, or some combination of both. We believe the answer is both, which is usually the convenient or intelligent sounding choice, but seems to actually be true here. Traditional cyclical forces will always affect trucking; however, supply-side factors are meaningfully shaping the current environment.
To that end, several enforcement-related developments have reduced the amount of capacity in the market. These include greater scrutiny of non-domiciled capacity, more consistent enforcement of cabotage rules, and increased attention on electronic logging devices (ELDs) which may be vulnerable to manipulation. These issues matter because they affect more than price. They influence highway safety, fair competition, insurance risk, supply chain integrity, and the ability of
8
brokers and shippers to verify that compliant and law-abiding carriers are moving their freight. Importantly, while new legislation is being discussed, much of this activity does not appear to reflect the creation of new rules, but rather the more consistent enforcement of rules that already exist.
The post-Montgomery environment may be creating an equally important structural change: a higher standard of care around carrier selection, documentation, insurance, and operating history. In this environment, carriers with unsafe operating records, incomplete backgrounds, unverifiable identities, or inadequate insurance are likely to face greater difficulty accessing freight. Conversely, carriers with safe operations, verifiable identities, proper insurance, and strong compliance practices are better positioned to compete and earn sustainable returns. While this transition may create friction in the near term, we believe it is healthy for the industry.
These changes are affecting market participants differently. Capacity continues to leave parts of the market, but midsized fleets with established compliance and safety programs appear to be benefiting from the shift. Smaller carriers with strong documentation, verifiable identities, and sound safety records can still compete effectively, although conditions remain uneven across regions and customer segments. Brokers, meanwhile, continue to face margin pressure as buy rates rise and compliance expectations increase. Larger brokers may be better equipped to manage the operational burden of carrier vetting, documentation, and reasonableness standards, while smaller brokers may face greater pressure as shippers reassess risk and liability across their routing decisions.
The likely result is a more expensive but more disciplined freight market. Compliance, insurance, safety, technology, and operating costs are all moving higher, and those increases are inflationary. While cyclical forces will continue to matter, enforcement, regulation, legislation, litigation risk, insurance standards, and supply chain integrity are also reframing how shippers and brokers evaluate and use capacity. That is why we believe market tightness may prove more durable than a typical cyclical upswing.
Banking
1.Analysis of Financial and Operational Performance for the Quarter
2.Update on Credit Metrics
Analysis of Financial and Operational Performance for the Quarter. Banking segment operating income was flat from the prior quarter, and pre-provision net revenue improved by $2.0 million.
During the quarter, we added $600 million of new servicing deposits from mortgage warehouse clients, continuing the growth we saw in the first quarter. As a result of these deposits, cash balances increased, and wholesale funding such as FHLB advances and brokered deposits declined again. Investors may notice that our reported interest expense this quarter ticked up materially from the prior quarter – this is the direct result of the recent growth in these warehouse deposits. Given their structure, we report these deposits as noninterest bearing deposits on our balance sheet. Despite that classification, they are not free of cost as we compensate our clients for these balances in the form of an earnings interest rebate rather than deposit interest. Because the recent influx of these deposits has resulted in some clients with much higher deposit balances than loan balances, we are now in some cases paying out much more in rebates than we earn in interest on a given client’s loans. In these cases, we are recording that excess rebate as interest expense. In 2Q, those excess rebates resulted in about $12.3 million of interest expense. Whether recorded as interest expense or an offset to interest income, the effect on net interest income is the same: these are profitable funds as they displace more expensive wholesale funding, and we can invest them risk-free above their cost.
Update on Credit Metrics. The metrics reflect credit exposure work tied to some of the business lines we are exiting, as well as normal-course credit noise. We continue to monitor the bankruptcy proceedings related to our Tricolor ABL exposure, and we continue to believe that our loan position is adequately secured by inventory and other assets that serve as our collateral.
•Total non-performing loans to total loans: decreased by 0.12% to 1.65%.
•Total classified assets: decreased by ~$15 million to $169 million.
•Past due to total loans: decreased by 0.16% to 2.19%.
Notable Items, Expense Forecast, and Closing Thoughts
As noted in the opening remarks, there were a few non-core items that impacted our 2Q26 financial results. In aggregate, these items reduced our pretax earnings for the quarter by $3.8 million and EPS by approximately $0.13. They include the following.
9
•During the quarter, we recorded a $1.9 million net loss on the disposal of premises and equipment, driven by a valuation adjustment on the real estate of an unprofitable branch we are in the process of closing and a terminated prepaid maintenance agreement.
•Offsetting this, we received a $1.8 million payment tied to a change in control provision on the sale of an unrelated third-party business. We recorded this gain in other noninterest income.
•We recorded $1.7 million in severance expenses during the quarter largely in continuation of ongoing efficiency efforts.
•During the quarter, we recorded $2.0 million in consulting expense related to our ongoing efficiency initiatives, which we do not expect to be recurring. As a result of these initiatives, we experienced $1.8 million in savings in our Communication & Technology expenses for the quarter. We expect this quarterly savings to be ongoing.
As we continue our work to become more efficient, we run into market realities. Based on relatively extraordinary sales growth, our variable compensation costs will come in higher than forecast. As a result, we expect to exit 2026 at a $98 million run rate versus our previously forecasted $96.5 million. We can cut other places to hit the mark, but we believe that would be short-sighted considering all the positive momentum and opportunities in front of us.
I have one other caveat to add to the expense run rate discussion. That $98 million number is our base case scenario, which assumes that we will pay annual incentive targets at 100%. If present trends continue, it is probable that for the first time in several years our annual incentive program pays above target. The annual incentive program is a company-wide program, with most of the dollars going to non-executive team members. We estimate the pre-tax earnings impact of the additional accrual would be $6 million for the back half of the year (i.e., $3 million per quarter). This is directional information for the benefit of investor and analyst models; it is not a final or specific forecast because unforeseeable things happen, both positive and negative, either of which will affect the final number. Given that this is a variable item related to annual targets set prior to the freight recovery, we would not anticipate this level of elevated annual incentive expense to continue into 2027 unless our performance materially outperforms the new annual targets approved by the board.
For 3Q, we expect core expenses to be approximately $99 million, excluding any incremental annual incentive accrual discussed above.
We have consistently said that revenue must grow faster than expenses, and that remains the framework. We will have more to say about our 2027 objectives and full-year expense guidance later this year. We expect to continue our investments in product and sales, offset by improving operational efficiencies.
Thank you for your interest in Triumph. We will face good markets and bad markets, and that means continually investing to improve our value chain while we pursue ever greater efficiency. That is the plan, and we will stick to the plan.
With warm regards,
Aaron P. Graft
Founder, Vice Chairman and CEO
[1] To preempt distracting comparisons of Factoring ROAA between 2021 and 2026, we would remind investors that Fed funds were 3.5% lower in 2021 than today and that the cumulative effects of inflation means that a $2,195 invoice then is roughly equivalent to a $2,650 invoice at present.
[2] We define Network engagement as the amount of freight touched through our payments, audit, full AP automation and rate intelligence products. It is an indicator of our broker volume density in the market, the source for growing available Network transactions and data assets, and a key value driver of the Network.

(1)Operating margin is a non-GAAP financial measure used as a supplemental measure to evaluate the performance of our Factoring segment. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, operating income and factoring total revenue were impacted by $1.2 million of interest and fees resulting from the USPS Settlement and such settlement further impacted operating income by $7.4 million of legal expense accrual reversal and $3.8 million of recovery of factoring balances charged-off in a prior period. Operating income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was also impacted by a $2.0 million legal settlement that was unrelated to the USPS Settlement. Such items had a 24.71% impact on operating margin, a 0.43% impact on yield on average receivables, and a 0.46% impact on yield on average net funds employed for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
(2)The current quarter charge-off rate for the three months ended June 30, 2025 reflects a $3.8 million recovery of factoring balances charged off in a prior period. Such recovery impacted the current quarter charge-off rate for that period by (0.33%).

(1)Earnings (losses) before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA") and EBITDA margin are non-GAAP financial measures used as supplemental measures to evaluate the performance of our Payments segment. EBITDA is useful because it provides a clearer view of underlying operating performance by excluding the effects of capital structure, tax regimes, and non-cash depreciation and amortization. EBITDA margin complements EBITDA by illustrating how efficiently revenue is converted into operating profitability.
(2)Payments EBITDA excluding LoadPay and Payments EBITDA Margin excluding LoadPay are non-GAAP financial metrics used as supplemental measures to evaluate the performance of our Payments segment exclusive of the investments associated with LoadPay, which is a relatively new product in its early stages. Such adjusted EBITDA measures provide comparable clarity into the performance of our Payments segment prior to the advent of our LoadPay product.

(1)Gross margin is a non-GAAP financial measure used as supplemental measure to evaluate the performance of our Intelligence segment. Cost of revenues is comprised primarily of salaries and benefits and communications and technology costs for employees providing services to the Company's customers. This includes the costs of the Company's personnel performing integration, customer support, third-party data center and customer training activities. Cost of revenues also includes the direct costs of third party hosting services. We have elected to exclude amortization expense of capitalized developed software and acquired technology, as well as allocations of fixed asset depreciation expense and occupancy expenses from cost of revenues.

(2) Our mortgage warehouse business is more than self-funded due to the noninterest bearing servicing deposits of its clients. The average balance of such deposits was $2.045 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2026. Given their legal form, these deposits are classified as noninterest bearing deposits on our balance sheet. Despite their classification, many of these deposits are not truly free of cost as we compensate our clients for these balances in the form of an earnings interest rebate rather than deposit interest. As a result, such noninterest bearing deposits first decrease our loan yield before increasing our deposit rates. Because of the recent influx of these deposits, some clients hold significantly higher deposit balances than loan balances. As a result, we are now, in some cases, paying out more in rebates than we earn in interest on a given client’s loans. In those cases, we are recording that excess rebate as deposit interest expense. Whether recorded as interest expense or an offset to interest income, the effect on net interest income and net income is the same: these are profitable funds as they displace more expensive wholesale funding and can be invested risk-free above their cost. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, deposit interest expense recognized on these deposits was $12.3 million.
The following table shows the impact of mortgage warehouse excess rebates:

1)Triumph Financial uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding Triumph Financial's operational performance and to enhance investors' overall understanding of such financial performance. The non-GAAP measures used by Triumph Financial include the following:
•"Tangible common stockholders' equity" is defined as common stockholders' equity less goodwill and other intangible assets.
•"Total tangible assets" is defined as total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets.
•"Tangible book value per share" is defined as tangible common stockholders' equity divided by total common shares outstanding. This measure is important to investors interested in changes from period-to-period in book value per share exclusive of changes in intangible assets.
•"Tangible common stockholders' equity ratio" is defined as the ratio of tangible common stockholders' equity divided by total tangible assets. We believe that this measure is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in relative changes from period-to-period in common equity and total assets, each exclusive of changes in intangible assets.
•"Return on Average Tangible Common Equity" is defined as net income available to common stockholders divided by average tangible common stockholders' equity.
2)Asset quality ratios exclude loans held for sale, except for non-performing assets to total assets.
3)Current quarter ratios are preliminary.
