Net Interest Income
Net interest income was $117.8 million for the first quarter of 2026, representing a decrease of $4.8 million, or 3.93%, from the fourth quarter of 2025, and an increase of $7.4 million, or 6.70%, from the first quarter of 2025. Interest income decreased by $6.9 million, or 4.40%, from the fourth quarter of 2025, while interest expense decreased by $2.1 million, or 6.16%, to $31.3 million in the first quarter of 2026. The quarter-over-quarter decrease in net interest income resulted from two fewer days within the quarter, as well as a five basis point decrease in net interest margin and a $133.5 million decrease in average interest-earning assets.
The $7.4 million increase in net interest income compared to the first quarter of 2025 was primarily driven by a $6.1 million increase in interest income that resulted from $336 million in higher average interest-earning assets and a seven basis point increase in the yield on earning assets. In addition to the increase in interest income, interest expense declined from the first quarter of 2025 by $1.3 million, as a five basis point decrease in the cost of deposits and customer repurchase agreements offset the $288 million increase in average total deposits and customer repurchase agreements.

Net Interest Margin
Our tax equivalent net interest margin was 3.44% for the first quarter of 2026, compared to 3.49% for the fourth quarter of 2025 and 3.31% for the first quarter of 2025. The five basis points decrease in our net interest margin compared to the fourth quarter of 2025 was primarily attributable to an eight basis points decrease in our average interest-earning assets yield, offset by a four basis point decrease in cost of funds. The decrease in our average interest-earning assets yield was primarily driven by a 15 basis points decrease in our average loan yield, as the loan yield in the fourth quarter of 2025 was impacted by the collection of $3.2 million of interest on a nonperforming loan that was paid off in full during the prior quarter. Our cost of funds decreased to 0.97% for the first quarter of 2026 from 1.01% in the fourth quarter of 2025, primarily due to a four basis point decrease in our cost of deposits to 0.78%, from 0.82%.
Our tax equivalent net interest margin for the first quarter of 2026 increased by 13 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2025, due to a seven basis point increase in the average interest-earning assets yield and a seven basis point decrease in cost of funds. The increase in earning assets yield was primarily due to a 10 basis point increase in average loan yields. Partially offsetting the increased loan yield was a 75 basis points decrease in the yield on funds deposited at the Federal Reserve, resulting from the FOMC lowering the target rate for the federal funds rate by 75 basis points during the last four months of 2025. Although the average yield on investment securities increased by 10 basis points from the first quarter of 2025, the fair-value hedges of our investment securities available for sale incurred a negative carry during the first quarter of 2026, resulting in a $1.2 million decrease in interest income when compared to the positive carry experienced in the year ago quarter. The expansion of the net interest margin was also impacted by a decrease in cost of funds to 0.97% in the first quarter of 2026 from 1.04% in the first quarter of 2025, which was primarily driven by an eight basis point decrease in cost of deposits.
Earning Assets and Deposits
On average, earning assets decreased by $133.5 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2025 and increased $335.7 million compared to the first quarter of 2025. The $133.5 million quarter-over-quarter decrease in interest-earning assets was primarily attributable to a $233.6 million decrease in average interest-earning deposits at the Federal Reserve, partially offset by a $107.4 million increase in average loans. The year-over-year increase in interest-earning assets was primarily attributable to a $157.1 million increase in average loans and a $118.7 million increase in average interest-earning deposits at the Federal Reserve.
The average balance on noninterest-bearing deposits decreased by $107.0 million, or 1.53%, from the fourth quarter of 2025 and by $111.9 million, or 1.60%, from the first quarter of 2025. The average balance on interest-bearing deposits and customer repurchase agreements increased by $2.2 million from the fourth quarter of 2025 and increased by $400.1 million from the first quarter of 2025. On average, noninterest-bearing deposits were 57.76% of total deposits for the first quarter of 2026, compared to 57.92% for the fourth quarter of 2025 and 59.01% for the first quarter of 2025.

Provision for Credit Losses
There was a $3.0 million provision for credit losses in the first quarter of 2026, compared to a $2.5 million recapture of credit losses in the fourth quarter of 2025 and a $2.0 million recapture of credit losses in the first quarter of 2025. The provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2026 was largely attributable to $3.2 million increase in specific reserves, primarily related to one commercial and industrial credit relationship.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income totaled $14.3 million for the first quarter of 2026, an increase of $3.1 million compared with $11.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 and a decrease of $2.0 million from $16.2 million for the first quarter of 2025. The quarter-over-quarter increase was primarily attributable to a $2.8 million loss on sale of available-for-sale (“AFS”) investments recorded in the fourth quarter of 2025. The year-over-year decrease was primarily due to a $2.2 million gain on sale of other real estate owned (“OREO”) during the first quarter of 2025. Bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”) income for the first quarter of 2026 increased by $1.0 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2025 and by $308,000 compared to the first quarter of 2025. Trust and investment services income decreased by $300,000, or 7.6%, from the fourth quarter of 2025 and increased by $300,000, or 9.2% , from the first quarter of 2025.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense totaled $60.6 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $62.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2025 and $59.1 million for the first quarter of 2025. Acquisition related expenses for the Heritage merger, announced at the end of the fourth quarter of 2025, totaled $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $1.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2025. Excluding acquisition expense, noninterest expense decreased $1.0 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2025. This decrease was primarily driven by a $1.6 million reduction of the FDIC special assessment accrual and a $500,000 decrease in provision for unfunded loan commitments, partially offset by a $700,000 increase in marketing and promotion expense. Excluding acquisition expense, the increase in noninterest expense compared to the first quarter of 2025 was $295,000.
As a percentage of average assets, noninterest expense was 1.58% for the first quarter of 2026, 1.57% for the fourth quarter of 2025, and 1.58% for the first quarter of 2025. The efficiency ratio was 45.84% for the first quarter of 2026, compared to 46.31% for the fourth quarter of 2025 and 46.69% for the first quarter of 2025. Excluding acquisition related expenses and decrease in provision for unfunded loan commitment, the adjusted efficiency ratio[1] was 44.61% for the first quarter of 2026, compared to 44.40% for the fourth quarter of 2025 and 46.30% for the first quarter of 2025.
Income Taxes
Our effective tax rate for the quarter ended March 31, 2026 was 25.60%, compared with 25.98% for the fourth quarter of 2025, and 26.50% for the first quarter of 2025. Our estimated annual effective tax rate can vary depending upon the level of tax-advantaged income from municipal securities and BOLI, as well as tax credit investments.
BALANCE SHEET HIGHLIGHTS
Assets
Total assets were $15.51 billion at March 31, 2026, a decrease of $123.5 million, or 0.79%, compared to total assets of $15.63 billion at December 31, 2025. The decrease in assets was primarily attributable to an $116.3 million decrease in investment securities and a $55.9 million decrease in total loans, offset by a $44.9 million increase in interest-earning balances due from the Federal Reserve.
Total assets at March 31, 2026 increased by $251.0 million, or 1.65%, compared to total assets of $15.26 billion at March 31, 2025. The increase in assets was primarily driven by an increase of $279.7 million in total loans.
Investment Securities
Total investment securities were $4.84 billion at March 31, 2026, a decrease of $116.3 million, or 2.35%, from $4.95 billion at December 31, 2025, and a decrease of $57.1 million, or 1.17%, from $4.89 billion at March 31, 2025.
At March 31, 2026, investment securities held-to-maturity (“HTM”) totaled $2.25 billion, a decrease of $22.4 million, or 0.98%, from December 31, 2025, and a decrease of $111.1 million, or 4.71%, from March 31, 2025.
At March 31, 2026, investment securities available-for-sale totaled $2.59 billion, inclusive of a pre-tax net unrealized loss of $310.4 million. AFS securities decreased by $94.0 million, or 3.50% from December 31, 2025, and increased by $54.1 million, or 2.13%, from $2.54 billion at March 31, 2025. The pre-tax net unrealized loss at March 31, 2026 increased by $2.6 million from December 31, 2025 and decreased by $78.1 million from March 31, 2025, primarily due to the sale of AFS securities in the second half of 2025.
Loans
Total loans and leases, at amortized cost, of $8.64 billion at March 31, 2026 decreased by $55.9 million, or 0.64%, from $8.70 billion at December 31, 2025 and increased by $279.7 million, or 3.34%, from $8.36 billion at March 31, 2025. The decrease from December 31, 2025 was primarily due to a decrease of $114 million in dairy & livestock loans associated with the seasonal increase that occurs every calendar year end. Excluding the seasonal decline in dairy & livestock loans, loans grew by $58 million from the end of 2025. This increase was driven by increases of $56.8 million in commercial real estate loans, $21.5 million in construction loans, and $9.3 million in Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans, which were partially offset by decreases of $21.4 million in commercial and industrial loans and $3.6 million in single-family residential (“SFR”) mortgage loans.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________
[1] Non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of the GAAP to non–GAAP measures are set forth at the end of this press release.
The increase from March 31, 2025 was primarily due to increases of $140.6 million in commercial real estate loans, $62.3 million in dairy & livestock and agribusiness loans, $43.6 million in construction loans, $19.7 million in SBA loans, $10.0 million in commercial and industrial loans, and $8.7 million in SFR mortgage loans, partially offset by a decrease of $7.8 million in municipal lease finance receivables.
Asset Quality
During the first quarter of 2026, we experienced credit charge-offs of $123,000 and total recoveries of $132,000, resulting in net recoveries of $9,000, which compares to net recoveries of $325,000 in the prior quarter. The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) totaled $80.2 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $77.2 million at December 31, 2025 and $78.3 million at March 31, 2025.

The $1.5 million increase in nonperforming loans from December 31, 2025 was primarily due to the addition of one nonperforming commercial and industrial loan of $2.9 million, four nonperforming commercial real estate loans totaling $1.3 million, offset by a $4.1 million commercial real estate nonaccrual loan payoff.
Classified loans are loans that are graded “substandard” or worse. Classified loans increased $30.4 million quarter-over-quarter, primarily driven by the downgrade of four commercial and industrial loans totaling $18.1 million, three commercial real estate loans totaling $12.9 million, and two dairy & livestock loans totaling $4.4 million. These increases are partially offset by loan paydowns and payoffs during the quarter.
Deposits & Customer Repurchase Agreements
Deposits of $11.95 billion and customer repurchase agreements of $494.3 million totaled $12.44 billion at March 31, 2026, compared to $12.56 billion at December 31, 2025 and $12.27 billion at March 31, 2025. Deposits and customer repurchase agreements decreased $123.1 million, or 0.98%, from December 31, 2025 and increased $173.4 million, or 1.41%, from March 31, 2025.
Noninterest-bearing deposits were $7.10 billion at March 31, 2026, an increase of $299.8 million, or 4.41%, compared to $6.80 billion at December 31, 2025, and a decrease of $83.8 million, or 1.17%, compared to $7.18 billion at March 31, 2025. At March 31, 2026, noninterest-bearing deposits were 59.44% of total deposits, compared to 56.33% at December 31, 2025, and 59.92% at March 31, 2025.
Borrowings
As of March 31, 2026, December 31, 2025, and March 31, 2025, total borrowings consisted of $500 million of Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances. The FHLB advances include $300 million, at an average cost of 4.73%, maturing in May of 2026, and $200 million, at a cost of 4.27% maturing in May of 2027.
Capital
The Company’s total equity was $2.32 billion at March 31, 2026, compared to $2.30 billion at December 31, 2025 and $2.23 billion at March 31, 2025. The increase of $26.1 million from prior year end was primarily attributable to $51.0 million in net earnings and a $2.7 million increase in other comprehensive income, partially offset by $27.2 million in cash dividends declared. We engaged in no stock repurchases during the first quarter of 2026. Our tangible book value per share was $11.42 at March 31, 2026, compared to $11.24 at December 31, 2025 and $10.45 at March 31, 2025, respectively.
Our capital ratios under the revised capital framework referred to as Basel III remain well above regulatory standards.

These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on the Company including, without limitation, plans, strategies, goals and statements about the Company’s outlook regarding revenue and asset growth, financial performance and profitability, capital and liquidity levels, loan and deposit levels, growth and retention, yields and returns, loan diversification and credit management, stockholder value creation, tax rates, the impact of business, economic, or political developments, the impact of monetary, fiscal and trade policies, and the impact of acquisitions we have made or may make, including our recent acquisition of Heritage Commerce Corp (“Heritage”) and its principal banking subsidiary, Heritage Bank of Commerce. Such statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and are generally beyond the control of the Company, and there can be no assurance that future developments affecting the Company will be the same as those anticipated by management. The Company cautions readers that a number of important factors, in addition to those set forth below, could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, such forward-looking statements.
