Management Comments
Logan Pichel
We delivered a strong start to 2026, achieving net income of $42.6 million, due largely to the solid underlying performance of our Core Banking franchise. Strong Traditional Banking and Warehouse Lending results, combined with disciplined balance sheet management, net interest income growth, and continued net interest margin resilience, more than offset the expected headwinds associated with the nonrenewal of a large Tax Refund Solutions (โTRSโ) Tax Provider contract. Comparability between the two first-quarter periods was significantly impacted by several nonrecurring or infrequent items, both favorable and unfavorable.
Logan Pichel
Our first quarter 2026 results highlighted the strength of our core banking fundamentals, including disciplined expense management, solid credit performance, and strong Core Bank net interest income and net interest margin expansion. Our Core Banking segments, particularly Traditional Banking and Warehouse Lending, delivered a strong start to the year and were the primary drivers of overall performance. These results underscore our ability to generate sustainable net interest income growth in a dynamic rate environment and reflect the resilience of our business model and the effectiveness of our interest rate risk management strategies.
