Segment Information

Determination of the CODM

The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) is its Chief Executive Officer (CEO). The CEO makes the overall decisions about the Company’s resource allocation and assesses the performance of the Company.
Determination and Identification of operating segments
The CODM manages the Company as one operating segment: the consolidated Company as one entity. All decisions regarding the allocation of financial, operational, and other resources are managed under this one segment. As part of the determination for the allocation of resources, the CODM regularly reviews net income as the measure of profit or loss. In addition, as part of the CODM’s assessment of the performance of the consolidated entity, the CODM also reviews the consolidated financial statements for significant expenses which include both cash and noncash items, such as amortization and depreciation and stock-based compensation. For more information on the significant components of net income or any significant cash or noncash items, refer to our accompanying consolidated financial statements or the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained within. The measure of assets is reported on the consolidated balance sheet as total consolidated assets.
Segment results
As the Company’s consolidated financial information as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 conform with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (GAAP) and the Company is managed on a single operating business segment, we collectively refer to the accompanying consolidated financial statements for the Segment Results for the measures of consolidated profit or loss, as well as consolidated total assets.

b) Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Significant Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required for a fair statement of financial position, results of operations and cash flows in conformity with GAAP. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. These adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. Interim period operating results may not be indicative of the operating results for a full year or any other period. These unaudited interim consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2025 and 2024 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2025 and the accompanying footnote disclosures for the Company, which are included in the 2025 Form 10-K.
For a complete summary of our significant accounting policies, see Note 1 to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements in the 2025 Form 10-K.
Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Significant estimates made by management include: (i) the determination of the allowance for credit losses; (ii) the fair values of loans, securities and derivative contracts; (iii) the cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance; and (iv) the determination of whether the amount of deferred tax assets will more likely than not be realized. Management believes that these estimates are appropriate. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Reclassifications
Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income
To emphasize material items, certain line items have been aggregated in the statement of operations and comprehensive (loss) income presented in this Form 10-Q. As part of these updates, interest-bearing demand, savings, and money market deposits have been aggregated into one line item in the statement of operations and comprehensive (loss) income. Prior periods have been conformed to this presentation for comparability.

c) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Issued and Adopted
New Guidance on Purchased Loans
In November 2025, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued new accounting guidance related to certain purchased loans. This guidance expands the use of the gross‑up approach for measuring credit losses at acquisition for certain purchased loans and eliminates the recognition of a Day 1 credit loss expense for those loans. Under this guidance, entities are required to account for acquired loans that meet certain criteria at acquisition, referred to as purchased seasoned loans (“PSLs”), by recognizing them at their purchase price plus an allowance for expected credit losses.

PSLs are purchased non-credit‑deteriorated loans, excluding credit cards, obtained in a business combination or acquired more than 90 days after origination through qualifying asset acquisitions or upon consolidation of non‑business variable interest entities.

The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026; early adoption is permitted. The Company early adopted this guidance, effective January 1, 2026 and applied it prospectively. As a result of this adoption, for PSL loans acquired during the first quarter of 2026, including residential and commercial loans originated at least 90 days prior to acquisition, the Company recorded an allowance for credit losses of $0.5 million at the date of acquisition.

For a description of other recently issued accounting pronouncements, see Note 1 to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements in the 2025 Form 10-K. There were no other recently issued accounting pronouncements adopted or issued that are expected to have a material impact on the Company, other than those disclosed above or in the 2025 Form 10‑K.
d) Subsequent Events
The effects of significant subsequent events, if any, have been recognized or disclosed in these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements.

2. Interest Earning Deposits with Banks, Other Short-Term Investments and Restricted Cash
At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, interest earning deposits with banks are mainly comprised of deposits with the Federal Reserve of approximately $118.0 million and $409.4 million, respectively. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the average interest rate on these deposits was approximately 3.62% and 4.28%, respectively. These deposits have no stated maturity dates.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company held US Treasury Bills classified as part of other short-term investments in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company held $7.3 million and $7.2 million, respectively, with an average yield of 3.56% and 4.14%, respectively, related to these investments. These other short-term investments have a stated maturity of 90 days or less and as such are deemed cash and cash equivalents.

At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had restricted cash balances of $6.9 million and $6.2 million, respectively, which are included within cash and due from banks and restricted cash in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. These balances include cash pledged as collateral, by other banks to us, to secure derivatives’ margin calls. This cash pledged as collateral also represents an obligation, by the Bank, to repay according to margin requirements. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, this obligation was $6.1 million and $5.3 million, respectively, which is included as part of other liabilities in the Company’s consolidated balance sheets. In addition, we have cash balances pledged as collateral to secure the issuance of letters of credit by other banks on behalf of our customers.

U.S. Government Sponsored Enterprise Debt Securities and U.S. Government Agency Debt Securities

At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company held certain debt securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government and U.S. government-sponsored entities and agencies. The Company does not intend to sell impaired debt securities in this category and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell those securities before their anticipated recovery. The Company evaluates these securities for credit losses by reviewing current market conditions, the extent and nature of changes in fair value, credit ratings, default and delinquency rates and current analysts’ evaluations. The Company believes the decline in fair value on certain of these debt securities is attributable to changes in interest rates and investment securities markets, generally, and not credit quality. As a result, the Company did not record an Allowance for Credit Losses, or ACL, on these securities as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

(2) Related to these loans, in April 2026, the Company sold one loan for net proceeds of $30.9 million. In addition, in April 2026, the Company collected $29.6 million in full satisfaction of another loan and released approximately $0.6 million from the valuation allowance as a result of this transaction.

In the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company transferred $193.4 million of commercial real estate and owner occupied loans from held for investment to held for sale, at the lower of cost or fair value. As a result of this transfer, the Company recognized a valuation allowance of approximately $3.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026 which is included in results of operations as losses on loans held for sale carried at the lower of cost or fair value. This was partially offset by a release of $1.6 million from the valuation allowance mainly resulting from the payoff of a loan that was classified as held for sale at December 31, 2025.

c) Loan Sales

In addition to sales related to mortgage banking activities in the first quarter of 2026, the Company sold loans for net proceeds of approximately $74.2 million, consisting of $68.7 million in real estate loans and $5.5 million in commercial loans.

See the Company’s consolidated statement of cash flows for more information on the sale of mortgage loans held for sale.
d) Concentration of risk

While seeking diversification of our loan portfolio held for investment and held for sale, the Company is dependent mostly on the economic conditions that affect South and Central Florida, Tampa, and the greater Houston and New York City areas, especially the five New York City boroughs. At March 31, 2026, our commercial real estate loans held for investment based in South Florida, Tampa and Central Florida, New York, Houston, and other regions were $1.5 billion, $235 million, $126 million, $92 million and $306 million, respectively.


e) Accrued interest receivable on loans

Accrued interest receivable on total loans, including loans held for investment and held for sale, was $25.7 million and $24.3 million as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” for additional information.

The ACL was determined utilizing a reasonable and supportable forecast period. It was calculated using a weighted-average of various economic scenarios provided by a third-party and incorporated qualitative components. There have not been material changes in our policies and methodology to estimate the ACL in the three months ended March 31, 2026.
The ACL as a percentage of total loans held for investment was 1.21% at March 31, 2026 compared to 1.20% at December 31, 2025. In the first quarter of 2026, net charge-offs offset the provision for credit losses on loans recorded during that period.

23
Table of Contents
Amerant Bancorp Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
In the first quarter of 2026, the provision for credit losses on loans was driven by $6.4 million in additional reserves for charge-offs, a $1.7 million net increase in specific reserves allocations, and $1.5 million attributable to changes in credit quality and macroeconomic factors. These increases were partially offset by a $2.8 million release related to held for investment loan volume changes.

ACL on PSLs

PSLs are initially recorded at the purchase price. An ACL is established at acquisition on a collective basis and allocated to individual loans. The sum of the loan’s purchase price and the ACL represents the loan’s initial amortized cost basis. The difference between the initial amortized cost basis and the loan’s par value represents a noncredit discount or premium. Any noncredit discount or premium is accreted or amortized into interest income using the effective interest method over the remaining contractual term of the loan.

Subsequent to acquisition, the ACL for PSL loans is measured using the same methodology applied to other originated loans held for investment and measured at amortized cost. Subsequent changes in the ACL losses are recognized through credit loss expense.

For PSLs for which expected credit losses are measured using methods other than discounted cash flows, management evaluated the optional election under PSL accounting guidance to measure the initial allowance based on amortized cost. However, this election was not made for loans purchased in the first quarter of 2026.

Loan Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty
The Company modifies loans related to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties by providing multiple types of concessions. Typically, one type of concession, such as a term extension, is granted initially. If the borrower continues to experience financial difficulty, another concession, such as principal forgiveness, may be granted.
The Company had no new loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025. There were no modified loans to borrowers that had experienced financial difficulty that defaulted in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 and had been modified within 12 months preceding the payment default.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were no outstanding balances related to loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties.

Credit Risk Quality
The sufficiency of the ACL is reviewed at least quarterly by the Deputy Chief Credit Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. The Board of Directors considers the ACL as part of its review of the Company’s consolidated financial statements. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company believes the ACL to be sufficient to absorb expected credit losses in the loans portfolio in accordance with GAAP.
Loans may be classified but not considered collateral dependent due to one of the following reasons: (1) the Company has established minimum dollar amount thresholds for individual assessment of expected credit losses, which results in loans under those thresholds being excluded from individual assessment of expected credit losses; and (2) classified loans may be considered in the assessment because the Company expects to collect all amounts due.

Amerant Bancorp Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Interim Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

As part of the on-going monitoring of the credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio, management tracks certain credit quality indicators including trends related primarily to (i) the risk rating of loans, (ii) the loan payment status, (iii) net charge-offs, (iv) nonperforming loans and (v) the general economic conditions in the main geographies where the Company’s borrowers conduct their businesses. The Company considers the views of its regulators as to loan classification and in the process of estimating expected credit losses.
The Company utilizes an internal risk rating system to identify the risk characteristics of each of its loans, or group of homogeneous loans such as consumer loans. Internal risk ratings are updated on a continuous basis on a scale from 1 (worst credit quality) to 10 (best credit quality). Loans are then grouped in five master risk categories for purposes of monitoring rising levels of potential loss risks and to enable the activation of collection or recovery processes as defined in the Company’s Credit Risk Policy. Internal risk ratings are considered the most meaningful indicator of credit quality for commercial loans. Generally, internal risk ratings for commercial real estate loans and commercial loans with balances over $3 million are assessed for updates at least annually and more frequently if circumstances indicate that a change in risk rating may be warranted. For consumer loans, single-family residential loans and smaller commercial loans under $3 million, risk ratings are updated based on the loans past due status. The following is a summary of the master risk categories and their associated loan risk ratings, as well as a description of the general characteristics of the master risk category:
Loan Risk Rating
Master risk category
Nonclassified
4 to 10
Classified
1 to 3
Substandard3
Doubtful2
Loss1
Nonclassified
This category includes loans considered as Pass (5-10) and Special Mention (4). A loan classified as Pass is considered of sufficient quality to preclude a lower adverse rating. These loans are generally well protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the borrower or by the value of any collateral received. Special Mention loans are defined as having potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention which, if left uncorrected, could potentially result in further credit deterioration. Special Mention loans may include loans originated with certain credit weaknesses or that developed those weaknesses since their origination.
Classified
This classification indicates the presence of credit weaknesses which could make loan repayment unlikely, such as partial or total late payments and other contractual defaults.
Substandard
A loan classified substandard is inadequately protected by the sound worth and paying capacity of the borrower or the collateral pledged. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Company will sustain some loss if the credit weaknesses are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard loans, does not have to exist in individual assets.

Doubtful
These loans have all the weaknesses inherent in a loan classified as 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. These are poor quality loans in which neither the collateral, if any, nor the financial condition of the borrower presently ensure collection in full in a reasonable period of time. As a result, the possibility of loss is extremely high.
Loss
Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that the continuance as bankable assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that the assets have absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but not to the point where a write-off should be deferred even though partial recoveries may occur in the future. This classification is based upon current facts, not probabilities. As a result, loans in this category should be promptly charged off in the period in which they are determined to be uncollectible.

Individually Evaluated Loans - Collateral-Dependent and Other
Loans individually evaluated for expected credit losses are primarily those with well‑defined weaknesses that are classified as substandard or worse and that have loan balances of $1 million or greater. Certain smaller‑balance loans may also be individually evaluated when a loss is deemed highly likely and the loan is fully reserved. These loans are mainly evaluated under two methods, collateral-dependent and discounted cash flow.

Loans are considered collateral-dependent when the repayment of the loan is expected to be provided by the sale of the underlying collateral. In this case, the ACL is measured based on the difference between the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell and the amortized cost basis of the loan as of the measurement date. The ACL may be zero if the fair value less estimated costs to sell of the collateral at the measurement date is equal or greater than the amortized cost basis of the loan.

Loans are evaluated under the discounted cash flow method when the Company expects repayment of the financial asset from the payments received, the ACL is measured based on the difference between the present value of the expected payments to be received discounted at the loan’s contractual interest rate and the amortized cost basis of the loan as of the measurement date. In certain circumstances, management may utilize probability‑weighted scenarios to reflect different reasonable and supportable expectations of future cash collections. The ACL may be zero if the present value at the measurement date is equal or greater than the amortized cost basis of the loan.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s individually evaluated loans, totaled $305.7 million and $259.3 million, respectively.

Collateral -Dependent Loans

Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments
Interest Rate Swaps On Debt Instruments
The Company enters into interest rate swap contracts on debt instruments which the Company designates and qualifies as cash flow hedges. These interest rate swaps are designed as cash flow hedges to manage the exposure that arises from differences in the amount of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and the known or expected cash payments on designated debt instruments. These interest rate swap contracts involve the Company’s payment of fixed-rate amounts in exchange for the Company receiving variable-rate payments over the life of the contracts without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had five interest rate swap contracts with notional amounts totaling $64.2 million, maturing in the third and fourth quarters of 2029. These contracts were designated as cash flow hedges to manage the exposure of variable rate interest payments on all of the Company’s outstanding variable-rate junior subordinated debentures with principal amounts at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 totaling $64.2 million. The Company expects these interest rate swaps to be highly effective in offsetting the effects of changes in interest rates on cash flows associated with the Company’s variable-rate junior subordinated debentures. The Company recognized unrealized gains of $0.1 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, in connection with these interest rate swap contracts, which were included as part of interest expense on junior subordinated debentures in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income.
In 2019, the Company terminated 16 interest rate swaps that had been designated as cash flow hedges of variable rate interest payments on the outstanding and expected rollover of variable-rate advances from the FHLB. The Company is recognizing the contracts’ cumulative net unrealized gains of $8.9 million in earnings over the remaining original life of the terminated interest rate swaps ranging between one month and seven years. In the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company recognized approximately $0.2 million respectively, as a reduction of interest expense on FHLB advances as a result of this amortization. As of March 31, 2026, the remaining cumulative net unrealized gains related to these interest rate swaps was $0.4 million.


Interest Rate Swaps On Loans

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had one interest rate swap contract with a notional amount of $50.0 million, maturing in the second quarter of 2027. The Company designated this interest rate swap as a cash flow hedge to manage interest rate risk exposure on variable rate interest receipts on the first $50 million principal balance of a pool of loans. This interest rate swap contract involves the Company’s payment of variable-rate amounts in exchange for the Company receiving fixed-rate payments over the life of the contract without exchange of the underlying notional amount. Unrealized losses on these instruments are included as part of interest income on loans in the Company’s consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments
a) Customer related positions
The Company offers certain derivatives products, including interest rate swaps and caps, directly to qualified commercial banking customers to facilitate their risk management strategies. The Company partially offsets its exposure to interest rate swaps and caps by entering similar derivative contracts with various third-party brokers.

Interest Rate Swaps
Interest rate swap contracts involve the Company’s payment of variable-rate amounts to customers in exchange for the Company receiving fixed-rate payments from customers over the life of the contracts without exchange of the underlying notional amount.

The Company enters into swap participation agreements with other financial institutions to manage the credit risk exposure on certain interest rate swaps with customers. Under these agreements, the Company, as the beneficiary or guarantor, will receive or make payments from/to the counterparty if the borrower defaults on the related interest rate swap contract. The notional amount of these agreements is based on the Company’s pro-rata share of the related interest rate swap contracts.
Interest Rate Caps

Interest rate cap contracts involve the Company making payments if an interest rate exceeds the agreed strike price.

Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features
Some agreements may require the Company to pledge securities as collateral when the valuation of the interest rate swap derivative contracts fall below a certain amount. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were $3.7 million and $11.0 million, respectively, in securities pledged as collateral for interest rate swaps in a liability position. Additionally, most of our derivative arrangements with counterparties require the posting of collateral upon meeting certain net exposure thresholds. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had cash held as collateral for derivatives margin calls of $6.1 million and $5.3 million, respectively. See Note 2 “Interest Earning Deposits with Banks, Other Short-Term Investments and Restricted Cash” for additional information about cash held as collateral. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were no collateral requirements related to interest rate swaps with third-party brokers not designated as hedging instruments.

9.Income Taxes
The Company uses an estimated annual effective tax rate method in computing its interim tax provision. This effective tax rate is based on forecasted annual consolidated pre-tax income, permanent tax differences and statutory tax rates. Under this method, the tax effect of certain items that do not meet the definition of ordinary income or expense are computed and recognized as discrete items when they occur.
The effective combined federal and state tax rates for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 were 22.10% and 22.50%, respectively. Effective tax rates differ from the statutory rates mainly due to the impact of forecasted permanent non-taxable interest and other income, forecasted permanent non-deductible expenses, and the effect of corporate state taxes.

11.    Commitments and Contingencies
From time to time the Company and its subsidiaries may be exposed to loss contingencies. In the ordinary course of business, those contingencies may include, known but unasserted claims, and legal / regulatory inquiries or examinations. The Company records these loss contingencies as a liability when the likelihood of loss is probable and an amount or range of loss can be reasonably estimated. In the opinion of management, the Company maintains a liability that is in an estimated amount sufficient to cover said loss contingencies, if any, at the reporting dates.
On October 21, 2025, the Company entered into a Wind-down and Settlement Agreement (the “Wind-down Agreement”) with a commercial borrower to resolve an existing loan participation agreement. Under the Wind-down Agreement, the Company assumes the risk of future credit losses under the participation agreement, up to a cumulative cap of $7.7 million through June 30, 2026 (the “Loss Cap”). If actual credit losses are below the Loss Cap as of that date, the Company will pay the difference to the borrower by June 30, 2026. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had incurred actual credit losses totaling $7.7 million. As a result, the maximum amount of the Loss Cap has been reached, and, therefore, the Company does not expect to incur any additional losses with respect to this loan participation agreement. As part of the Wind-down Agreement, the borrower has agreed to irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee the full and timely payment of all amounts due to the Company under the loan participation agreement that exceed the Loss Cap, up to a maximum of $13.9 million.
Financial instruments whose contract amount represents off-balance sheet credit risk at March 31, 2026 are generally short-term and are as follows:

Loans Held for Sale, at Lower of Cost or Fair Value

The fair value used for loans held for sale that are carried at the lower of cost or fair value is generally based on quoted market prices of similar loans less estimated cost to sell and is considered to be Level 3.
Cash Flow Dependent Loans Measured For Expected Credit Losses

The carrying amount of individually evaluated loans where repayment is expected to be provided through cash flows is estimated using the present value discounted cash flow method. The estimated cash flows are based on the borrower’s repayment capacity, using available financial information. In certain circumstances, management may utilize probability‑weighted scenarios to reflect different reasonable and supportable expectations of future cash collections. Because this approach incorporates significant unobservable inputs, such as borrower‑specific cash flow estimates, discount rates, and probability‑of‑default assumptions, the fair value of these loans is classified as a Level 3 valuation.


Collateral Dependent Loans Measured For Expected Credit Losses

The carrying amount of collateral dependent loans is typically based on the fair value of the underlying collateral less cost to sell. The Company primarily uses third party appraisals to assist in measuring expected credit losses on collateral dependent loans. The Company also uses third party appraisal reviewers for loans with an outstanding balance of $1 million and above. These appraisals generally use the market or income approach valuation technique and use market observable data to formulate an opinion of the fair value of the loan’s collateral. However, the appraiser uses professional judgment in determining the fair value of the collateral or properties and may also adjust these values for changes in market conditions subsequent to the appraisal date. When current appraisals are not available for certain loans, the Company uses judgment on market conditions to adjust the most current appraisal. The sales prices may reflect prices of sales contracts not closed and the amount of time required to sell out the real estate project may be derived from current appraisals of similar projects. As a consequence, the fair value of the collateral is considered a Level 3 valuation.

OREO

The Company values Other Real Estate Owned (OREO), at the lower of cost or fair value of the property, less cost to sell. The fair value of the property is generally based upon recent appraisal values of the property, less cost to sell. The Company primarily uses third party appraisals to assist in measuring the valuation of OREO. Period revaluations are classified as Level 3 as the assumptions used may not be observable. There were no sales or writedowns of OREO properties in the first quarter of 2026.

Diluted earnings per common share$0.44 $0.28 

As of March 31, 2026 and 2025, potential dilutive instruments consisted of unvested shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units totaling 507,552 and 542,993, respectively. In the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, potential dilutive instruments were included in the diluted earnings per share computation because, when the unamortized deferred compensation cost related to these shares was divided by the average market price per share in those periods, fewer shares would have been purchased than restricted shares assumed issued. Therefore, in those periods, such awards resulted in higher diluted weighted average shares outstanding than basic weighted average shares outstanding, and had a dilutive effect on per share earnings. Further, as of March 31, 2026 and 2025, 110,518 and 184,142 performance share units respectively, were excluded from the diluted earnings per share computation because the performance target was not achieved, or because their inclusion would have been antidilutive. See “Note 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and “Note 14. Incentive Compensation and Benefit Plans” in the 2025 Form 10-K for more details on the performance and or market conditions associated with these awards.

OVERVIEW

Our Company
We are a bank holding company headquartered in Coral Gables, Florida. We provide individuals and businesses a comprehensive array of deposit, credit, investment, wealth management, retail banking, mortgage services, and fiduciary services. We serve customers in our United States markets and select international customers. These services are offered through our main subsidiary, Amerant Bank, N.A., or the Bank, which is also headquartered in Coral Gables, FL, as well as the Bank’s securities broker-dealer, Amerant Investments Inc., or Amerant Investments. The Bank’s primary markets are South Florida, where we are headquartered and operate 21 banking centers in Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties; and Tampa, Florida where we have a regional headquarters office and currently operate two banking centers.

Amerant Mortgage, LLC, a mortgage lending company domiciled in Florida (“Amerant Mortgage”) and Elant Bank & Trust Ltd., a bank and trust company domiciled in George Town, Grand Cayman (the “Cayman Bank”) are subsidiaries of the Bank. The Company is in the process of winding down and dissolving both Amerant Mortgage and the Cayman Bank, which the Company expects to complete in 2026, once any and all applicable regulatory approvals are received.

Business Developments
For more information on the progress of our business strategy and strategic initiatives in 2025, see Item 1. Business section included in the 2025 Form 10-K.
People and Channels

In November 2025, the Board appointed Carlos Iafigliola, previously Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer, as Interim Chief Executive Officer. The Board, supported by an external executive search firm, commenced a process to identify a permanent CEO which is ongoing as of the date of filing of this Form 10-Q.

During the first quarter of 2026, the Company refined its leadership structure to enhance execution of its strategic priorities, including the appointments of a Chief Domestic Banking Officer, a Chief International Banking Officer, and a Chief Product Officer. These actions are intended to strengthen operational alignment, support growth across key business segments, and reinforce the Company’s focus on credit quality, operational efficiency, deposit growth, loan generation, and long‑term shareholder returns.

In January 2026, we opened a new banking center in Bay Harbor Islands, FL.

Amerant Mortgage Updates

In April 2025, considering its strategic decision to focus on Florida, the Company announced it would transition its mortgage business from a national mortgage originator model to an in-footprint mortgage focused approach, emphasizing mortgage lending that supports the Company’s retail and private banking customers. Since April 2025, the Company progressively reduced the mortgage-focused FTE count from 77 FTEs to 3 at the close of 2025. In addition, in January 2026, loans owned by the Bank and sub-serviced by a third party have been transferred into the Bank’s core platform, and remaining vendor contracts are expected to be terminated or modified. The Company expects to complete the wind-down of Amerant Mortgage during the first half of 2026. The Bank will continue to pursue its in‑footprint, mortgage‑focused strategy through a dedicated mortgage department.

Macroeconomic Updates

In the first quarter of 2026, the U.S. economy showed clear signs of deceleration, with growth slowing from late‑2025 levels amid policy uncertainty, persistent inflation pressures, and global shocks. Real GDP growth was weak to modest, with the Atlanta Federal Reserve’s GDPNow model estimating approximately 1.2% annualized growth by mid‑April, down sharply from earlier expectations above 3%. This followed an already soft 0.5% annualized expansion in Q4 2025, underscoring a loss of economic momentum entering 2026. While overall U.S. growth softened, economic activity in the markets we serve remained relatively stable; Management believes that the slower loan growth in the first quarter primarily reflects Amerant’s deliberate recalibration of its risk appetite and increased focus on lending to borrowers with stable, well‑established operating histories, rather than a deterioration in underlying demand.

Consumer spending, the economy’s primary growth engine, cooled during the quarter as households faced elevated borrowing costs and renewed inflation anxiety. While nominal wage growth remained positive, higher energy and goods prices, partly linked to geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and their impact on oil markets, constrained real purchasing power. This dynamic tempered demand for consumer‑adjacent and small‑business credit, increased sensitivity to pricing, and supported a more cautious underwriting stance.

Business investment was mixed: spending on data centers, AI‑related infrastructure, and intellectual property remained relatively strong, while more traditional capital expenditures softened amid uncertainty around tariffs, interest rates, and global demand, resulting in a more uneven loan demand profile by sector for Amerant. The labor market remained resilient but continued to cool. Unemployment hovered in the mid‑4% range, broadly consistent with late‑2025 levels, while monthly job gains moderated from earlier post‑pandemic norms. Hiring strength in health care, government, and select technology fields contrasted with softening conditions in interest‑sensitive sectors such as housing and manufacturing. For Amerant, this environment supported overall credit performance but warranted heightened monitoring of rate‑sensitive industries, contributing to Amerant’s proactive credit risk management, targeted de‑risking actions, and exit of certain non‑core exposures.

In 2026, inflation remained above the Federal Reserve’s 2% target, with CPI running above 3% year over year by early, influenced by higher energy prices and sticky inflation in service-related industries. In response, the Federal Reserve has held the federal funds rate steady at 3.5%–3.75%, emphasizing a cautious, data‑dependent approach. For Amerant, this rate environment continued to pressure net interest margin through lower loan volumes and asset repricing, while also intensifying competition for domestic deposits. These conditions increased the strategic importance of expense discipline, balance‑sheet mix management, and increase of lower‑cost international deposits.

Primary Factors Used to Evaluate Our Business

Results of Operations. In addition to net income or loss, the primary factors we use to evaluate and manage our results of operations include net interest income, noninterest income and expenses, and indicators of financial performance including return on assets (“ROA”) and return on equity (“ROE”). We also use certain non-GAAP financial measures in the internal evaluation and management of our businesses.

Net Interest Income. Net interest income represents interest income less interest expense. We generate interest income from interest, dividends and fees received on interest-earning assets, including loans and investment securities we own. We incur interest expense from interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, including interest-bearing deposits, and borrowings such as advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (“FHLB”) and other borrowings such as repurchase agreements, notes, debentures and other funding sources we may have from time to time. Net interest income typically is the most significant contributor to our revenues and net income. To evaluate net interest income, we measure and monitor: (i) yields on our loans and other interest-earning assets; (ii) the costs of our deposits and other funding sources; (iii) our net interest spread; (iv) our net interest margin, or NIM; and (v) our provisions for credit losses. Net interest spread is the difference between rates earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. NIM is calculated by dividing net interest income for the period by average interest-earning assets during that same period. Because noninterest-bearing sources of funds, such as noninterest-bearing deposits and stockholders’ equity, also fund interest-earning assets, NIM includes the benefit of these noninterest-bearing sources of funds. Non-refundable loan origination fees, net of direct costs of originating loans, as well as premiums or discounts paid on loan purchases, including the initial allowance for expected credit losses on purchased seasoned loans, are deferred and recognized over the life of the related loan as an adjustment to interest income in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

Changes in market interest rates and the interest we earn on interest-earning assets, or which we pay on interest-bearing liabilities, as well as the volumes and the types of interest-earning assets, interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing liabilities and stockholders’ equity, usually have the largest impact on periodic changes in our net interest spread, NIM and net interest income. We measure net interest income before and after the provision for credit losses.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income consists of, among other revenue streams: (i) service fees on deposit accounts; (ii) income from brokerage, advisory and fiduciary activities; (iii) benefits from and changes in cash surrender value of bank-owned life insurance, or BOLI, policies; (iv) card and trade finance servicing fees; (v) securities gains or losses; (vi) net gains and losses on early extinguishment of FHLB advances, which we may execute from time to time as part of asset/liability management activities; (vii) income from derivative transactions with customers; (viii) derivative gains or losses; and (ix) other noninterest income which includes mortgage banking revenue and gains or losses on the sale of loans originated for investment.

Our income from service fees on deposit accounts is primarily affected by the volume, growth and mix of deposits we hold, as well as the volume of transactions initiated by customers (e.g., wire transfers). These are affected by prevailing market pricing of deposit services, interest rates, our marketing efforts and other factors.

Our income from brokerage, advisory and fiduciary activities consists of brokerage commissions related to our customers’ trading volume, fiduciary and investment advisory fees generally based on a percentage of the average value of assets under management and custody (“AUM”), and account administrative services and ancillary fees during the contractual period.

Income from changes in the cash surrender value of our BOLI policies represents the amounts that may be realized under the contracts with the insurance carriers, which are nontaxable.
54

Interchange fees, other fees and revenue sharing are recognized when earned. Trade finance servicing fees, which primarily include commissions on letters of credit, are generally recognized over the service period on a straight line basis. Card servicing fees include credit and debit card interchange fees and other fees. We have also entered into referral arrangements with recognized U.S.-based card issuers, which permit us to serve our customers and earn referral fees and share interchange revenue without exposure to credit risk.
Our gains and losses on sales of securities are derived from sales from our securities portfolio and are primarily dependent on changes in U.S. Treasury interest rates and asset liability management activities. Generally, as U.S. Treasury rates increase, our securities portfolio decreases in market value, and as U.S. Treasury rates decrease, our securities portfolio increases in value. We also recognize unrealized gains or losses on changes in the valuation of trading securities and marketable equity securities not held for trading.

Our fee income generated on customer interest rate swaps and other loan level derivatives are primarily dependent on volume of transactions completed with customers and are included in noninterest income.

Derivatives unrealized net gains and derivatives unrealized net losses are primarily derived from changes in market value of uncovered interest rate caps with clients.

Other noninterest income includes mortgage banking income/loss generated through our mortgage banking operation comprised of Amerant Mortgage through the early part of the fourth quarter of 2025, and later through the Bank, and consists of gain on sale of loans, gain on loans market valuation, foreign currency exchange transactions with customers, valuation income on the investment balances held in the non-qualified deferred compensation plan, other fees and smaller sources of income. In addition, other income includes net gains on sale of loans originated for investment.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expenses generally increase as our business grows and whenever necessary to implement or enhance policies and procedures for regulatory compliance, and other purposes.

Noninterest expense consists of: (i) salaries and employee benefits; (ii) occupancy and equipment expenses; (iii) professional and other services fees; (iv) loan-level derivative expenses; (v) FDIC deposit and business insurance assessments and premiums; (vi) telecommunication and data processing expenses; (vii) depreciation and amortization; (viii) advertising and marketing expenses; (ix) other real estate and repossessed assets, net; (x) losses on sale of assets; and (xi) other operating expenses.

Salaries and employee benefits include compensation (including severance expenses), employee benefits and employer tax expenses for our personnel. Salaries and employee benefits are partially offset by costs directly related to the origination of loans, which are deferred and amortized over the life of the related loans as adjustments to interest income in accordance with GAAP.

Occupancy expenses consists of lease expense on our leased properties, including right-of-use or ROU asset impairment charges, and other occupancy-related expenses. Equipment expense includes furniture, fixtures and equipment related expenses. Rental income associated with subleasing portions of the Company’s headquarters building and the subleasing of the New York office space, primarily, is included as a reduction to rent expense under lease agreements under occupancy and equipment cost.

55


Professional and other services fees include the cost of outsourced services, including technology infrastructure, banking processing services and other professional consulting fees from our technology provider; legal; accounting and related consulting fees; card processing fees; directors’ fees; regulatory agency fees; such as OCC examination fees, and other fees related to our business operations.

Loan-level derivative expenses are incurred in back-to-back derivative transactions with commercial loan clients and with brokers. The Company pays a fee upon inception of the back-to-back derivative transactions, corresponding to the spread between a wholesale rate and a retail rate.

Advertising expenses include the costs of promoting the Amerant brand, as well as the costs associated with promoting the Company’s products and services to create positive awareness, or consideration to buy the Company’s products and services. These costs include expenses to produce, deliver and communicate advertisements using available media and technologies, primarily streaming and other digital advertising platforms. Advertising expenses are expensed as incurred, except for media production costs which are expensed upon the first airing of the advertisement.

FDIC deposit and business insurance assessments and premiums include deposit insurance, net of any credits applied against these premiums, corporate liability and other business insurance premiums.

Telecommunication and data processing expenses include expenses paid to our third-party data processing system providers and other telecommunication and data service providers.

Depreciation and amortization expense includes the value associated with the depletion of the value on our owned properties and equipment, including leasehold improvements made to our leased properties.

OREO and repossessed assets expense includes expenses and revenue (rental income) from the operation of foreclosed property/assets as well as fair value adjustments and gains/losses from the sale of OREO and repossessed assets.

Other operating expenses include earnings credits, business development expenses, community engagement, charitable contributions, mortgage loan origination and servicing expenses, postage and courier expenses, debits which mirror the valuation income on the investment balances held in the non-qualified deferred compensation plan in order to adjust the liability to participants of the deferred compensation plan, and other small operational expenses. Earnings credits are provided to certain commercial depositors primarily in the mortgage banking industry to help offset deposit service charges incurred.






56

Primary Factors Used to Evaluate Our Financial Condition
The primary factors we use to evaluate and manage our financial condition include asset quality, capital and liquidity.
Asset Quality. We manage the diversification and quality of our assets based upon factors that include the level, distribution and risks in each category of assets. Problem assets may be categorized as classified, delinquent, nonaccrual, nonperforming and restructured assets. We also manage the adequacy of our allowance for credit losses, or the allowance, the diversification and quality of loan and investment portfolios, the extent of counterparty risks, credit risk concentrations and other factors.

We review and update our allowance for expected credit losses periodically to calibrate loss estimation models based on our loan volumes, and credit and economic conditions in our markets. The models may differ among our loan segments to reflect their different asset types, and includes qualitative factors, which are updated periodically based on the type of loan and other factors.

Capital. Financial institution regulators have established minimum capital ratios for banks and bank holding companies. We manage capital based upon factors that include: (i) the level and quality of capital and our overall financial condition; (ii) the trend and volume of problem assets; (iii) the adequacy of reserves; (iv) the level and quality of earnings; (v) the risk exposures in our balance sheet under various scenarios, including stressed conditions; (vi) the Tier 1 capital ratio, the total capital ratio, the Tier 1 leverage ratio, and the CET1 capital ratio; (vii) the tangible equity ratio; and (viii) other factors, including market conditions.
Liquidity. Our deposit base consists primarily of personal and commercial accounts maintained by individuals and businesses in our primary markets and select international core depositors. The Company is focused on relationship-driven core deposits. The Company may also use third party providers of domestic sources of deposits as part of its balance sheet management strategies. We define core deposits as total deposits excluding all time deposits. This definition of core deposits differs from the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council’s (the “FFIEC”) Uniform Bank Performance Report (the “UBPR”) definition of “core deposits,” which exclude brokered time deposits and retail time deposits of more than $250,000. See “Core Deposits” discussion for more details.
We manage liquidity based upon factors that include the amount of core deposit relationships as a percentage of total deposits, the level of diversification of our funding sources, the allocation and amount of our deposits among deposit category, the short-term funding sources used to fund assets, the amount of non-deposit funding used to fund assets, the availability of unused funding sources, off-balance sheet obligations, the amount of cash and liquid securities we hold, the availability of assets readily convertible into cash without undue loss, the characteristics and maturities of our assets when compared to the characteristics of our liabilities and other factors.
Seasonality. Our loan production, generally, is subject to seasonality, with the lowest volume typically in the first quarter of each year.

(1)    In the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, potential dilutive instruments consisted of unvested shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance share units. See Note 13 to our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q for details on the dilutive effects of the issuance of restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance share units on earnings per share.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
In the three months ended March 31, 2026, net income attributable to the Company was $17.9 million, or $0.44 income per diluted share, compared to net income of $12.0 million, or $0.28 income per diluted share, in the same quarter of 2025. The increase of $5.9 million, or 49.5%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily driven by: (i) lower provision for credit losses, and (ii) lower noninterest expense in the three months ended March 31, 2026, partially offset by: (i) lower net interest income and (ii) lower noninterest income in the three months ended March 31, 2026.

Net interest income was $80.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026, a decrease of $5.6 million, or 6.5%, from $85.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025. This was primarily driven by: (i) a total of 50 basis points decrease in the average yield on all interest-earning assets; (ii) a decrease of a total of 42 basis points in the average rates on all interest-bearing liabilities which includes the impact of the repricing of both the loan portfolio and our interest-bearing deposits; and (iii) decreases of $650.7 million, or 9.1%, and $289.3 million, or 49.8%, in the average balances of loans and deposits with banks, respectively, during the period. These decreases were partially offset by: (i) an increase of $808.3 million, or 54.9%, in the average balances of debt securities available for sale during the period; and (ii) a decrease of $41.4 million, or 0.6%, in the average balances of total interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin was 3.55% in the three months ended March 31, 2026, a decrease of 20 basis points from 3.75% in the three months ended March 31, 2025. See discussions further below for more details.

Noninterest income was $17.4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $19.5 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025. The decrease was mainly driven by lower other noninterest income and lower deposits and service fees. These decreases were partially offset by: (i) higher brokerage, advisory and fiduciary fees; (ii) higher securities gains; and (iii) higher change in cash surrender value of BOLI. See “Noninterest Income” for more details.

Noninterest expense was $66.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026, a decrease of $4.6 million, or 6.5%, compared to $71.6 million in the same period in 2025. This decrease was mainly due to: (i) lower professional and other services fees; (ii) lower salaries and employee benefits; (iii) lower occupancy and equipment expenses; (iv) lower advertising expenses; (v) lower OREO and repossessed assets expense; (vi) lower FDIC assessments and insurance expenses; and (vii) lower other noninterest expenses. These decreases were partially offset by: (i) higher losses on loans held for sale carried at the lower of cost or fair value and (ii) higher loan-level derivative expenses. See “Noninterest Expense” for more details.

In the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, the Company incurred noninterest expenses of $0.2 million and $3.2 million, respectively, related to Amerant Mortgage which consists of salaries and employee benefits expense, mortgage lending costs and professional and other services fees. Amerant Mortgage had no full time equivalent employees (“FTEs”) at March 31, 2026 compared to 77 FTEs at March 31, 2025, reflecting the wind-down of its operations.

Net Interest Income
Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
The Company continued to execute strategic repricing across its deposit products to offset lower yields on the loan portfolio during the first quarter of 2026 compared to the same period last year. Additionally, we continued investing in fixed rate investments. See discussions further below for more details.
Net interest income in the three months ended March 31, 2026, was $80.3 million, a decrease of $5.6 million, or 6.5%, from $85.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2025. This was primarily driven by: (i) a total of 50 basis points decrease in the average yield on all interest-earning assets; (ii) a decrease of a total of 42 basis points in the average rates on all interest-bearing liabilities which includes the impact of the repricing of both the loan portfolio as well as our interest-bearing deposits; and (iii) decreases of $650.7 million, or 9.1%, and $289.3 million, or 49.8% in the average balances of loans and deposits with banks, respectively, during the period. These decreases were partially offset by: (i) an increase of $808.3 million, or 54.9%, in the average balances of debt securities available for sale during the period; and (ii) a decrease of $41.4 million, or 0.6%, in the average balances of total interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin was 3.55% in the three months ended March 31, 2026, a decrease of 20 basis points from 3.75% in the three months ended March 31, 2025. See discussions further below for more details.
Interest Income
Total interest income was $133.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026, a decrease of $13.4 million, or 9.1%, compared to $146.4 million for the same period of 2025. The decrease was driven by: (i) a total of 50 basis points decrease in the average yield on all interest-earning assets; and (ii) decreases of $650.7 million, or 9.1%, and $289.3 million, or 49.8%, in the average balances of loans and deposits with banks, respectively, during the period. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of $808.3 million, or 54.9%, in the average balances of debt securities available for sale during the period.
Interest income on loans in the three months ended March 31, 2026 was $102.7 million, a decrease of $18.3 million, or 15.2%, compared to $121.0 million in the same period last year, primarily due to a 46 basis points decrease in average yields. The decrease in interest income on loans was also due to the decreases in the average balance of the total loan portfolio during the quarter compared to the same period in 2025. See “-Average Balance Sheet, Interest and Yield/Rate Analysis” for detailed information.
Interest income on debt securities available for sale was $26.8 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026, an increase of $8.8 million, or 49.2%, compared to $18.0 million in the same period of 2025. This was mainly due to an increase of $808.3 million, or 54.9%, in the average balance of these securities which were partially offset by a decrease of 19 basis points in average yields. The increase in the average balance was primarily as a result of additional purchases of fixed rate investments during the quarter which were partially offset by sales in the period.
In the three months ended March 31, 2026, the average balance of accumulated net unrealized gains included in the carrying value of these securities were $0.5 million, compared to the average balance of accumulated net unrealized loss of $47.0 million in the same period last year.
As of March 31, 2026, floating rate investments, which are entirely comprised of available for sale debt securities, represent 6.9% of our total investment portfolio compared to 22.4% at March 31, 2025. In addition, the expected overall duration increased to 5.0 years at March 31, 2026 from 4.4 years at March 31, 2025. The floating rate investments have a lower duration which offset the increase in overall duration.
64

Interest Expense
Interest expense was $52.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026, a decrease of $7.8 million or 12.8%, compared to $60.5 million in the same period of 2025. This was primarily due to a decrease of 42 basis points in average rates, as well as a decrease of $41.4 million in the average balances of total interest-bearing liabilities. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in the average balances of total deposits mainly in interest-bearing demand, savings and money market deposits.
Interest expense on interest-bearing deposits was $44.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026, a decrease of $6.4 million, or 12.5%, compared to $51.0 million in the same period of 2025. This was mainly driven by a decrease of 42 basis points in the average rates paid on total deposits, partially offset by an increase of $29.6 million, or 0.5%, in their average balance. See below for a detailed explanation of changes by major deposit category:
•Time deposits. Interest expense on total time deposits decreased $5.6 million, or 23.5%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025. This was mainly due to a decrease of 66 basis points in the average cost of total time deposits. In addition, there was a decrease of $216.0 million, or 9.7%, in the average balance of these deposits, which includes a $210.9 million decrease in the average balance of brokered time deposits, as well as a $5.1 million decrease in the average balance of customer CDs.
•Interest bearing checking, savings and money market deposit accounts. Interest expense on checking, savings and money market deposit accounts decreased $0.8 million, or 2.8%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025. This was mainly due to a net decrease of 22 basis points in the average costs on these deposits. This was partially offset by a net increase of $245.6 million, or 5.87%, in the average balance of these deposits.
Interest expense on advances from the FHLB decreased $0.4 million, or 4.9%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, primarily driven by a decrease of 14 basis points in average rates paid. In the first three months of 2026, the Company borrowed $20.0 million of advances from the FHLB. See “Capital Resources and Liquidity Management” for more details on the repayment and restructuring of advances from the FHLB.
Interest expense on Senior Notes decreased $0.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025. The Company incurred no interest expense in the current period following the redemption in April 2025 of $60.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 5.75% Senior Notes.

(1)The ACL relates to residential and commercial loans with an aggregate principal balance of $36.8 million that were identified as PSL at the acquisition date. The Company adopted new accounting guidance related to PSLs effective January 1, 2026. See Note 1 to our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q.
66
Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
In the first quarter of 2026, the provision for credit losses on loans was driven by $6.4 million in additional reserves for charge-offs, a $1.7 million net increase in specific reserves allocations, and $1.5 million attributable to changes in credit quality and macroeconomic factors. These increases were partially offset by a $2.8 million release related to held for investment loan volume changes.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, charge-offs increased $3.7 million, or 69.4%, compared to the same period last year. In the three months ended March 31, 2026, charge-offs included $4.3 million related to a commercial loan participation agreement that the borrower and the Company agreed to wind-down in the prior quarter; no further charge-offs are expected from this agreement. In addition, we charged off $2.2 million related to one unsecured consumer loan and $0.7 million related to one commercial loan, both of which are part of a larger commercial relationship. Lastly, the Company charged off $2.0 million related to other smaller balance loans, including business banking and consumer loans. These charge-offs were partially offset by $1.9 million in recoveries.
In the three months ended March 31, 2025, charge-offs included: (i) $2.1 million related to purchased indirect consumer loans and $3.2 million related to retail and business banking loans. This was offset by $1.5 million in recoveries.

The ratio of net charge-offs over the average total loan portfolio held for investment was 0.45% in the first quarter of 2026, compared to 0.22% in the first quarter of 2025.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, consistent with the Company’s applicable policy, the Company has requested independent third-party collateral valuations on all real estate securing non-performing loans with existing valuations older than 12-months and outstanding balances in excess of $1.0 million. As of March 31, 2026, there were eight loans recently downgraded totaling $98.9 million with appraisals older than 12 months, for which new appraisals have been ordered. No additional provision for credit losses was deemed necessary in both periods as a result of these valuations.
We continue to proactively and carefully monitor the Company’s credit quality practices, including examining and responding to patterns or trends that may arise across certain industries or regions.

(2) In the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, amounts are primarily in connection with losses and gains on the sale of debt securities available for sale.
(3)    Income from interest rate swaps and other derivative transactions with customers. The Company incurs expenses related to derivative transactions with customers which are included as part of noninterest expenses under loan-level derivative expense. See Noninterest Expense section for more details.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
Total noninterest income decreased $2.1 million, or 11.0%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period last year, mainly due to lower other noninterest income, and lower deposits and service fees primarily wire transfers and service fees. These decreases were partially offset by: (i) higher brokerage, advisory and fiduciary fees; (ii) higher securities gains; and (iii) higher change in cash surrender value of BOLI.

Other noninterest income decreased $3.2 million, or 76.5%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, primarily due to: (i) a decrease of $2.6 million on gains on sale of loans as the three months ended March 31, 2026 include $0.2 million gain on the sale of loans while the same period last year included a net gain of $2.8 million mainly from a loan note sale that was previously charged-off; and (ii) a decrease of $0.5 million in mortgage banking income.

Brokerage, advisory and fiduciary fees increased $0.7 million, or 15.5%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period one year ago. This was mainly driven by higher volume from equity and structured product and fixed income trading in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025, as well as increases in valuations compared to the prior year.
68


Securities gains in the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $0.5 million compared to the same period in 2025 mainly due to gains from the sale of available for sale securities during the period.

BOLI income in the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $0.1 million, or 4.7%, which were mainly driven by additional income from the addition of new BOLI policies which began in the first quarter of 2025.

Our AUMs totaled $3.4 billion at March 31, 2026, an increase of $0.2 billion, or 5%, from $3.3 billion at December 31, 2025, primarily driven by higher valuations.

Three Months Ended March 31, 2026 and 2025
Noninterest expense decreased $4.6 million, or 6.5%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period in 2025, mainly due to: (i) lower professional and other services fees; (ii) lower salaries and employee benefits; (iii) lower occupancy and equipment expenses; (iv) lower advertising expenses; (v) lower OREO and repossessed assets expense; (vi) lower FDIC assessments and insurance expenses; and (vii) lower other noninterest expenses. These decreases were partially offset by: (i) higher losses on loans held for sale carried at the lower of cost or fair value and (ii) higher loan-level derivative expenses.

Professional and other services fees decreased $3.3 million, or 22.2%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period last year. This was mainly driven by decreases of approximately $2.1 million in fees related to our technology provider as a result of savings achieved in the three months ended March 31, 2026 from vendor contract renegotiation, $0.7 million in combined accounting fees related to different projects, $0.5 million in all other expenses such as vendor fees and others.

Salaries and employee benefits decreased $1.3 million, or 3.9%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period last year mainly driven by: (i) lower bonus variable compensation attributable to lower performance; and (ii) lower sign-on bonuses. These decreases were partially offset by: (i) higher salary expense related to the new and existing workforce; and (ii) higher health insurance costs.

70

Occupancy and equipment expenses decreased $0.7 million, or 11.6%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period last year mainly driven by lower equipment maintenance and repair expenses.

Advertising expenses decreased $0.7 million, or 19.1%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period last year mainly driven by lower advertising expenses associated with marketing agreements and fewer community events.

Other real estate owned and repossessed assets expenses decreased $0.4 million, or 241.5%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period last year. In the three months ended March 31, 2026, we had OREO rental income while we had a loss provision in the same period last year.

FDIC assessments and insurance expenses decreased $0.4 million, or 11.9%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period last year mainly due to having lower assets this period compared to last year resulting in lower FDIC assessments.

Other operating expenses decreased $0.4 million, or 7.4%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to the same period a year ago, mainly driven by decreases of $0.8 million in earnings credits, $0.7 million in various loan costs, and an aggregate of $0.5 million in other operational expenses. These decreases were partially offset primarily by a $1.7 million write-down of an equity investment carried at cost.

In addition, mortgage banking expenses related to Amerant Mortgage, primarily consisting of salaries and employee benefits, mortgage lending costs and professional and other services fees decreased to $0.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to $3.2 million in the same period last year. This was a reflection of the Company’s wind-down of Amerant Mortgage’s operations.

Losses on loans held for sale carried at the lower cost or fair value increased $1.8 million, or 100.0%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026. In the three months ended March 31, 2026, we had $3.4 million in valuation allowance associated with the transfer of additional loans to the held-for-sale category. The increase was offset by $1.6 million in the releases of allowances on previous loans held for sale.

Loan-level derivative expenses increased $0.7 million, or 189.4%, compared to the same period last year mainly driven by an increase in swap fees related to the termination of some swaps.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense increased to $5.1 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $3.5 million for the same period in 2025.The increase was mainly driven by higher income before income taxes in 2026.
As of March 31, 2026, the Company’s net deferred tax assets were $42.5 million, an increase of $7.0 million, or 19.6%, compared to $35.6 million as of December 31, 2025. This was primarily driven by an increase of $7.0 million in connection with $27.3 million in net unrealized holding losses on debt securities available for sale during the period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company supplements its financial results that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) with non-GAAP financial measures, such as “pre-tax pre-provision net revenue (PPNR)”, "tangible common equity ratio", and “tangible stockholders’ equity (book value) per common share”. This supplemental information is not required by, or is not presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company refers to these financial measures and ratios as “non-GAAP financial measures”.

We use certain non-GAAP financial measures, including those mentioned above, both to explain our results to shareholders and the investment community and in the internal evaluation and management of our business. Management believes that these supplementary non-GAAP financial measures and the information they provide are useful to investors since these measures permit investors to view our performance using the same tools that our management uses to evaluate our past performance and prospects for future performance. While we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating our performance, this information should be considered as supplemental and not as a substitute for or superior to the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from similar measures presented by other companies.

Beginning in the first quarter of 2026, the Company reviewed and updated its use of non‑GAAP financial measures and now presents a limited set of metrics that management uses to evaluate performance and make operating decisions. As part of this update, the Company discontinued the presentation of “Core PPNR”, “core noninterest income”, and “core noninterest expense”, as management determined these measures are no longer primary metrics used internally. This change does not reflect any change in the Company’s underlying business, operations, or GAAP financial results.

The following tables set forth selected financial information derived from the Company’s interim unaudited and annual audited consolidated financial statements, adjusted for certain items, including the provision for credit losses, income taxes and goodwill and other intangible assets. The Company believes these adjusted numbers are useful to understand the Company’s performance and underlying trends.

Financial Condition - Comparison of Financial Condition as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025
Assets. Total assets were $9.9 billion as of March 31, 2026, an increase of $126.5 million, or 1.3%, compared to $9.8 billion at December 31, 2025. This result was primarily driven by increases of: (i) $346.3 million, or 16.6%, in total securities, mainly debt securities available for sale; (ii) $56.6 million, or 0.9%, in total loans held for investment and loans held for sale, net of the ACL; and (iii) deferred tax assets of $7.0 million, or 19.6%, resulting from deterioration in the valuation of securities available for sale as a result of changes in market interest rates. The increases were partially offset primarily by a decrease of $281.5 million, or 59.9%, in cash and cash equivalents. See “-Average Balance Sheet, Interest and Yield/Rate Analysis” for detailed information, including changes in the composition of our interest-earning assets.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $188.7 million at March 31, 2026 from $470.2 million at December 31, 2025, primarily as a result of a decrease in interest earning cash balances.
At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, interest earning deposits with banks, mainly cash balances held at the Federal Reserve, were $118.0 million and $409.4 million, respectively. In addition, at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents included restricted cash of $6.9 million and $6.2 million, respectively, which was held primarily to cover margin calls on derivative transactions with certain brokers. Furthermore, at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company’s cash and cash equivalents included other short-term investments of $7.3 million and $7.2 million, respectively, which consist of US Treasury Bills that mature in 90 days or less.
Cash and cash equivalents provided by operating activities were $10.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026, mainly driven by: (i) net income of $17.9 million; (ii) a non-cash adjustment of $7.8 million for the provision for credit losses; and (iii) net sales over originations and purchases of $2.2 million in loans held for sale at fair value. These results were partially offset by a net decrease of $18.4 million in operating assets and liabilities and other non-cash adjustments of $1.5 million.
Net cash used in investing activities was $441.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026, mainly driven by: (i) purchases of securities totaling $543.5 million, mainly comprised of debt securities available for sale, and (ii) a net increase in loans originated for investment of $141.3 million. These disbursements were partially offset by: (i) maturities, sales, calls and paydowns of investment securities totaling $169.9 million; and (ii) proceeds from the sale of loans originated for investment of $74.1 million.
75


In the three months ended March 31, 2026, net cash provided by financing activities was $149.2 million, mainly due to: (i) a net increase in total demand, savings and money market deposit balances of $100.8 million; (ii) a net increase of $51.4 million in time deposits; and (iii) net proceeds from advances from the FHLB of $20.0 million. This was partially offset by: (i) an aggregate of $18.7 million of Class A common stock repurchased in the three months ended March 31, 2026; and (ii) $3.7 million of dividends declared and paid by the Company in the three months ended March 31, 2026. See “-Capital Resources and Liquidity Management” for more details on changes in FHLB advances and common stock transactions in the three months ended March 31, 2026.

As of March 31, 2026, total loans held for investment were $6.56 billion, down $50.5 million, or 0.8%, compared to $6.6 billion at December 31, 2025. Domestic loans held for investment decreased by $48.7 million, or 0.7%, as of March 31, 2026, compared to December 31, 2025. This decrease reflects net declines of (i) $180.1 million, or 7.4%, in CRE loans; (ii) $35.9 million, or 24.2%, in loans to financial institutions and acceptances; (iii) $20.2 million, or 8.3%, in consumer loans; and (iv) $18.9 million, or 2.3%, in owner occupied loans. These decreases were partially offset by increases of (i) $167.3 million, or 11.3%, in single-family residential loans and (ii) $39.0 million, or 2.7%, in commercial loans. These increases include loan purchases totaling $195.8 million in single family residential loans and $20.0 million in commercial syndicated loans. The decreases in CRE and owner occupied loans were primarily driven by $193.4 million of loans transferred to held for sale, recorded at the lower of cost or fair value. The decrease in consumer loans was mainly attributable to lower balances in indirect consumer loans, as we discontinued purchases of these loans and the portfolio continues to run off over time.
As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, loans held for sale at the lower of cost or fair value were $190.0 million, up $109 million, or 134.8%, compared to $80.9 million at December 31, 2025. The increase is principally due to $193.4 million of CRE and owner occupied loans transferred from loans held for investment to held for sale, at the lower of cost or fair value. This was partially offset by decreases from: (i) loan sales of $65.7 million, and (ii) a loan payoff of $17 million.

As of March 31, 2026, loans under syndication facilities, included in loans held for investment, were $421.8 million, a decrease of $13.1 million, or 3.0%, compared to $434.9 million at December 31, 2025. The decrease was primarily driven by the transfer of two loans totaling $52.9 million to held for sale. This was partially offset by the purchase of a $20.0 million commercial syndicated loan. In addition, there were net increases of $12.4 million and $7.3 million in club deals and Shared National Credit (“SNC”) facilities, respectively. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were no SNC loans that financed highly leveraged transactions. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, loans under syndication facilities held for investment include SNCs of $60.9 million and $53.5 million, respectively.

Loan Quality
Allocation of Allowance for Credit Losses
In the following table, we present the allocation of the ACL by loan segment at the end of the periods presented. The amounts shown in this table should not be interpreted as an indication that charge-offs in future periods will occur in these amounts or percentages. These amounts represent our best estimates of expected credit losses to be collected throughout the life of the loans, at the reported dates, derived from historical events, current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts at the dates reported. Our allowance for credit losses is established using estimates and judgments, which consider the views of our regulators in their periodic examinations. Re-evaluation of the ACL estimate in future periods, in light of changes in composition and characteristics of the loan portfolio, changes in the reasonable and supportable forecast and other factors then prevailing may result in material changes in the amount of the ACL and credit loss expense in those future periods. We also show the percentage of each loan class, which includes loans in nonaccrual status.

The increase in nonperforming assets during the three months ended March 31, 2026 was primarily attributable to three loan relationships that included a combination of CRE, owner-occupied, and commercial loans, and was partially offset by payoffs, note sales, and charge-offs.

All non-performing loans are rated Classified. See discussion on Classified and Special Mention Loans below for more details, including details about new loans downgraded during period.

We recognized no interest income on nonaccrual loans during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.

Classified loans decreased $34.6 million, or 9.7%, primarily due to loan sales and payoffs totaling $65.7 million and $59.5 million, respectively, and $9.1 million in charge-offs. These results were partially offset by downgrades totaling $100.5 million, including: (i) one $35.2 million non‑depository financial institution loan in accrual status secured by underlying CRE collateral; (ii) one $16.8 million single‑family residential loan in accrual status; (iii) two owner occupied loans totaling $11.2 million in accrual status; (iv) three loan relationships in nonaccrual status totaling $28.0 million consisting of CRE, owner‑occupied, and commercial loans; and (v) $9.4 million related to other loans.

Composition of Classified Loans at March 31, 2026
As of March 31, 2026, classified loans had the following composition: (i) $201.5 million of real estate collateral dependent loans with a weighted‑average loan‑to‑value ratio of 64.0%; (ii) $84.4 million of cash‑flow‑dependent loans; (iii) $17.2 million of collateral‑dependent loans other than real estate, primarily asset‑based lending; (iv) $0.3 million of unsecured loans; and (v) $17.0 million of loans collectively evaluated for purposes of determining the allowance for credit losses.

Balances at end of period$145,854 $— $— $2,387 $— $— $148,241 

All special mention loans remained current at March 31, 2026.
The increase in Special Mention loans was primarily driven by downgrade to three CRE loans totaling $81.3 million, partially offset by upgrades to Pass totaling $67.3 million, based on year end financial information received. In April 2026, the Company sold one real estate loan classified as held for sale and rated Special Mention for net proceeds of $30.9 million. There was no material impact to earnings as a result of this transaction. In addition, in April, 2026, the Company collected $29.6 million in full satisfaction of another real estate loan classified as held for sale and rated Special Mention, and released approximately $0.6 million from the valuation allowance as a result of this transaction.

Potential problem loans, which are accruing loans classified as substandard and are less than 90 days past due, at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, are as follows:

At March 31, 2026 total potential problem loans decreased to $146.7 million compared to $186.7 million at December 31, 2025. This was primarily driven primarily driven by a reduction of approximately $89.7 million from loan sales and loan payoffs, as well as a $15.8 million decrease resulting from loans moving to non‑accrual status and related balance reductions. These improvements were partially offset by an increase of $65.6 million in potential problem loans attributable to loan downgrades.

Securities
The following table sets forth the book value and percentage of each category of securities at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The book value for trading securities, debt securities classified as available for sale and equity securities with readily determinable fair value not held for trading represents fair value. The Company determined that an ACL on its debt securities available for sale at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 was not required.

(1) In 2023, the Company purchased an investment in an open-end fund incorporated in the U.S. with an original cost of $2.5 million. The Fund’s objective is to provide a high level of current income consistent with the preservation of capital and investments deemed to be qualified under the Community Reinvestment Act.
(2)    Includes investments in FHLB and Federal Reserve stock. Amounts correspond to original cost at the date presented. Original cost approximates fair value because of the nature of these investments.

As of March 31, 2026, total securities increased $346.3 million, or 16.6%, to $2.4 billion compared to $2.1 billion at December 31, 2025. The increase in the three months ended March 31, 2026 was mainly driven by purchases of debt securities held for sale totaling $543.5 million. This increase was partially offset by (i) maturities, sales, calls and pay downs, totaling $169.9 million of debt securities available for sale and FHLB stock and (ii) net pre-tax unrealized losses of $27.4 million on debt securities available for sale primarily attributable to changes in market interest rates during the current period.
86


Debt securities available for sale had net unrealized holding losses of $39.0 million and net unrealized holding gains of $9.4 million at March 31, 2026, compared to December 31, 2025 when net unrealized holding losses were $23.9 million and net unrealized holding gains were $21.7 million. The Company does not intend to sell these debt securities and it is more likely than not that it will not be required to sell the securities before their anticipated recovery. The Company believes these securities are not credit-impaired because the change in fair value is attributable to changes in interest rates and investment securities markets, generally, and not credit quality. As a result, the Company did not record an ACL on these securities as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

The following tables set forth the book value, scheduled maturities and weighted average yields for our securities portfolio at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Similar to the table above, the book value for securities available for sale, trading securities and equity securities with readily determinable fair value not held for trading is equal to fair market value.

The investment portfolio’s weighted expected average effective duration increased to 5.0 years at March 31, 2026 compared to 4.4 years at December 31, 2025, due to higher market rates which decreased modeled prepayment expectations, as well as, a reduction in the floating rate securities proportion of the total debt securities available for sale portfolio.

Liabilities
Total liabilities were $9.0 billion at March 31, 2026, an increase of $0.2 billion, or 1.7%, compared to $8.8 billion at December 31, 2025. This was primarily driven by: (i) an increase of $0.2 billion, or 2.0%, in total deposits, mainly due to an increase in core deposits, and (ii) an increase of $20.3 million, or 2.8%, in advances from the FHLB. This increase was partially offset by a decrease of $20.1 million, or 15.7%, in accounts payable, accrued liabilities and other liabilities. See “Capital Resources and Liquidity Management” and “Deposits” for more details on the changes in advances from the FHLB and total deposits.
Deposits
We continue with our efforts in growing our deposits. Our efforts include the additions of new team members to our business development teams across South Florida and Tampa in the first three months of 2026.

Total deposits were $7.9 billion at March 31, 2026, an increase of $0.2 billion, or 2.0%, compared to December 31, 2025. The increase in deposits in the three months ended March 31, 2026 was mainly due to increases of: (i)$207.4 million, or 4.9%, in interest-bearing demand, savings and money market deposits, and (ii) $51.4 million, or 2.6%, in time deposits. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $106.6 million, or 6.8%, in noninterest bearing demand deposits.

The $51.4 million, or 2.6%, net increase in time deposits includes an increase of $112.4 million, or 25.8%, in brokered time deposits, which was partially offset by a decrease of $61.1 million, or 3.9% in customer CDs. As of March 31, 2026 total brokered deposits, which are all domestic deposits, were $548.1 million, compared to $435.7 million at December 31, 2025.

CDARS and ICS reciprocal deposits are offered through the Company’s participation in the IntraFi Network. The network facilitates the placement of customer funds into certificates of deposit, demand deposit, or money market accounts issued by other member banks in increments of less than $250,000. This structure enables customers to receive full FDIC insurance coverage on large balances while the Company retains the relationship. In exchange, the Company accepts reciprocal deposits from other network banks, maintaining overall deposit levels. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, reciprocal deposits in the Intrafi Network amounted to $1.1 billion and $0.9 billion, respectively.

We use non-reciprocal deposit placement services through the IntraFi Network. These arrangements allow us to place excess customer deposits to other network participants while maintaining the customer relationship. Under these non-reciprocal placement transactions, customer deposit funds are transferred to other participating institutions. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we placed approximately $171.0 million and $162.6 million, respectively, of deposits to other participating institutions. As a result, these deposits were excluded from the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

(1)    Based upon the diligence we customarily perform to "know our customers" for anti-money laundering, OFAC and sanctions purposes, we believe that the U.S. economic embargo on certain Venezuelan persons will not adversely affect our Venezuelan customer relationships, generally.
(2) Our other foreign deposits do not include deposits from Venezuelan resident customers.

Domestic deposits increased $60.2 million, or 1.2%, in the three months ended March 31, 2026, primarily driven by increases of: (i) $112.4 million in brokered time deposits; and (ii) $169.6 million in interest-bearing demand, savings and money market deposits. These increases were partially offset by decreases of: (i) $172.0 million in non-interest bearing accounts and (ii) $49.8 million in customer time deposits.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, total foreign deposits increased $92.0 million, or 3.5%, primarily driven by increases of: (i) $65.4 million in non-interest-bearing deposits and (ii) $37.9 million in interest-bearing demand, savings and money market deposits. The increases was partially offset by decreases of $11.3 million customer time deposits. The increase in foreign deposits was principally from customer domiciled in Venezuela. We have deep knowledge and experience in the Venezuelan market, which uniquely positions Amerant to take advantage of the opportunity to grow deposits and relationships in this country.

Core Deposits
Our core deposits were $5.9 billion and $5.8 billion as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, and represented 74.2% and 74.4% of our total deposits at those dates, respectively. The increase of $100.8 million, or 1.7%, in core deposits in the three months ended March 31, 2026 was mainly driven by increases in interest bearing and noninterest bearing demand deposits, and savings and money market deposits. We define “core deposits” as total deposits excluding all time deposits.
Brokered Deposits
We utilize brokered deposits primarily as an asset and liability management tool. For the periods ended March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, brokered deposits were $548.1 million and $435.7 million, respectively, represented 6.9% and 5.6% of total deposits as of the respective reporting dates. Total brokered deposits increased $112.4 million, or 25.8%, as of March 31, 2026, compared to December 31, 2025.

Brokered deposits consisted of $548.1 million and $435.7 million of time deposits for the periods ended March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The Company has not historically sold brokered CDs in individual denominations over $100,000.
Large Fund Providers
Large fund providers consist of third party relationships with balances over $20 million. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our large fund providers included 20 deposit relationships with total balances of $885.2 million and $962.3 million, respectively. The decrease in balances from large fund providers in the three months ended March 31, 2026 was mainly driven by a decrease in large deposits from commercial customers as the Company continues its focus on depository relationships.

Short-Term Borrowings
In addition to deposits, we use short-term borrowings from time to time, such as advances from the FHLB and borrowings from other banks, as a source of funds to meet the daily liquidity needs of our customers and fund growth in earning assets. Short-term borrowings have maturities of 12 months or less as of the reported period-end.
All of the Company’s short-term borrowings at March 31, 2026 corresponded to FHLB advances. There were no other borrowings or repurchase agreements outstanding at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

__________________

(1)In the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, potential dilutive instruments consisted of unvested shares of restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance share units. See Note 13 to our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q for details on the dilutive effects of the issuance of restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance share units on earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025.
During the three months ended March 31, 2026, basic and diluted earnings per share increased compared to the same period one year ago, primarily driven by improved net income in the current period compared to the same period last year.

Capital Resources and Liquidity Management
Capital Resources 
Stockholders’ equity is influenced primarily by earnings, dividends, if any, and changes in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss (AOCI/AOCL) caused primarily by fluctuations in unrealized holding gains or losses, net of taxes, on debt securities available for sale and derivative instruments. AOCI or AOCL are not included in stockholders’ equity for purposes of determining our capital for bank regulatory purposes.
Total stockholders’ equity was $913.9 million as of March 31, 2026, a decrease of $24.9 million, or 2.7%, compared to $938.8 million as of December 31, 2025. This decrease was primarily driven by: (i) an aggregate of $18.7 million of Class A common stock repurchased in the three months ended March 31, 2026; (ii) $3.7 million of dividends declared and paid by the Company in the three months ended March 31, 2026, and (iii) $20.4 million of other comprehensive loss, mainly due to net unrealized holding losses on debt securities available for sale. This was partially offset by net income of $17.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026.
92


Common Stock Transactions
In the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company repurchased an aggregate of 859,493 shares of Class A common stock at a weighted average price of $21.77 per share, under the 2026 Stock Repurchase Program. The aggregate purchase price for these transactions was $18.7 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026, including transaction costs. See Note 1 to our unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in this Form 10-Q for more details on the 2026 Stock Repurchase Program.

Dividends
Set forth below are the details of dividends declared and paid by the Company for the first three months ended March 31, 2026:

Declaration DateRecord DatePayment DateDividend Per ShareDividend Amount
01/22/202602/13/202602/27/2026$0.09$3.7 million
On April 22, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.09 per share of the Company’s common stock. The dividend is payable on May 29, 2026, to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 15, 2026.

Liquidity Management
We manage our liquidity based on several factors that include the amount of core deposit relationships as a percentage of total deposits, the level of diversification of our funding sources, the allocation and amount of our deposits among deposit types, the short-term funding sources used to fund assets, the amount of non-deposit funding used to fund assets, the availability of unused funding sources, off-balance sheet obligations, the amount of cash and liquid securities we hold, the availability of assets readily convertible into cash without undue loss, the characteristics and maturities of our assets when compared to the characteristics of our liabilities and other factors.
Liquidity risk management is a relevant element of our asset/liability management. Our contingency funding plan is constantly monitored by our Assets and Liabilities Committee and serves as the basis to identify our liquidity needs. The contingency funding plan models several liquidity stress scenarios to evaluate different potential liquidity outflows or funding gaps resulting from economic disruptions and volatility in the financial markets, among other factors.

Customer deposits have been our principal source of funding, supplemented by our investment securities portfolio, our short-term and long-term borrowings as well as loan repayments and amortizations. The Company’s liquidity position includes cash and cash equivalents of $188.7 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $470.2 million at December 31, 2025.

At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had $0.7 billion of outstanding advances from the FHLB. At March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had an additional $2.2 billion and $2.1 billion, respectively, of remaining borrowing capacity with the FHLB. This additional borrowing capacity is determined by the FHLB. In the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company borrowed $20.0 million and made no repayments in advances from the FHLB. The Company may repay advances from the FHLB prior to their stated maturity as part of the Company’s asset/liability management strategies.

93

There were no other borrowings as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

We also have available uncommitted federal funds lines with several banks. We had no outstanding borrowings under uncommitted federal funds lines with banks at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
Holding Company

We are a corporation separate and apart from the Bank and, therefore, must provide for our own liquidity. Historically, our main source of funding has been dividends declared and paid to us by the Bank. The Company is the obligor and guarantor on our junior subordinated debt and the guarantor of the Subordinated Notes.
The Company held cash and cash equivalents mainly at the Bank of $12.1 million as of March 31, 2026 in funds available to service Subordinated Notes and junior subordinated debt and for general corporate purposes, as a separate stand-alone entity ($17.5 million as of December 31, 2025 in funds available to service Subordinated Notes, and junior subordinated debt and for general corporate purposes).
Subsidiary Dividends
There are statutory and regulatory limitations that affect the ability of the Bank to pay dividends to the Company. These limitations exclude the effects of AOCI/AOCL. Management believes that these limitations will not affect the Company’s ability to meet its ongoing short-term cash obligations. See “Supervision and Regulation” in the 2025 Form 10-K.
On April 22, 2026, the Board of Directors of the Bank approved the payment of a cash dividend in the amount of $15.0 million by the Bank to the Company. The Company received this dividend on April 30, 2026.
Based on our current outlook, we believe that net income, advances from the FHLB, available other borrowings and any dividends paid to us by the Bank will be sufficient to fund liquidity requirements for at least the next twelve months and the foreseeable future.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
The following table shows the outstanding balance of financial instruments whose contracts represent off-balance sheet credit risk as of the end of the periods presented. Except as disclosed below, we are not involved in any other off-balance sheet contractual relationships that are reasonably likely to have a current or future material effect on our financial condition, a change in our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources. For more details on the Company’s off-balance sheet arrangements, see Note 19 to our audited consolidated financial statements included in the 2025 Form 10-K.

Contractual Obligations
In the normal course of business, we and our subsidiaries enter into various contractual obligations that may require future cash payments. Significant commitments for future cash obligations include capital expenditures related to operating leases, certain binding agreements we have entered into for services including outsourcing of technology services, advertising and other services, and other borrowing arrangements which are not material to our liquidity needs. We currently anticipate that our available funds, credit facilities, and cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet our operational cash needs for the foreseeable future. Other than the changes discussed herein, there have been no material changes to the contractual obligations previously disclosed in the 2025 Form 10-K.

In the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Company borrowed $20.0 million and made no repayments of FHLB advances.
In the three months ended March 31, 2026, total time deposits increased $51.4 million, or 2.6%. See “Deposits” for additional information.
On October 21, 2025, the Company entered into a Wind-down and Settlement Agreement (the “Wind-down Agreement”) with a commercial borrower to resolve an existing loan participation agreement. Under the Wind-down Agreement, the Company assumes the risk of future credit losses under the participation agreement, up to a cumulative cap of $7.7 million through June 30, 2026 (the “Loss Cap”). If actual credit losses are below the Loss Cap as of that date, the Company will pay the difference to the borrower by June 30, 2026. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had incurred actual credit losses totaling $7.7 million. As a result, the maximum amount of the Loss Cap has been reached, and, therefore, the Company does not expect to incur any additional losses with respect to this loan participation agreement. As part of the Wind-down Agreement, the borrower has agreed to irrevocably and unconditionally guarantee the full and timely payment of all amounts due to the Company under the loan participation agreement that exceed the Loss Cap, up to a maximum of $13.9 million.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We believe interest rate and price risks are the most significant market risks impacting us. We monitor and evaluate these risks using sensitivity analyses to measure the effects on earnings, equity and the available for sale portfolio mark-to-market exposure, of changes in market interest rates. Exposures are managed to a set of limits previously approved by our Board of Directors and monitored by management. See discussions below for material changes in our market risk exposure as compared to those discussed in our 2025 Form 10-K, Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk”.
Earnings Sensitivity
The following table shows the sensitivity of our net interest income as a function of modeled interest rate changes:

Decrease of 200(23,039)(7.1)%(32,418)(10.1)%
__________________
(1) Represents the change in net interest income, and the percentage that change represents of the base scenario net interest income. The base scenario assumes (i) flat interest rates over the next 12 months, (ii) that total financial instrument balances are kept constant over time and (iii) that interest rate shocks are instant and parallel to the yield curve, for the various interest rates and indices that affect our net interest income.


Net interest income in the base scenario increased to approximately $326.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2026 compared to $320.0 million as of December 31, 2025. This increase is mainly driven by the increase in debt securities available for sale. This was offset by a decrease in cash balances held at the Federal Reserve as well as a net increase in cost of funds.

The Company periodically reviews the scenarios used for earnings sensitivity to reflect market conditions.

The estimated average effective duration of our investment portfolio increased to 5.0 years at March 31, 2026 compared to 4.4 years at December 31, 2025, due to higher market rates which decreased modeled prepayment expectations, as well as, a reduction in the floating rate securities proportion of the total debt securities available for sale portfolio.
Additionally, the floating rate portfolio decreased to 6.9% at March 31, 2026 from 10.3% at December 31, 2025.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains a set of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. The CEO and the CFO, with assistance from other members of management, have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2026, and, based on their evaluation, have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such date.

Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls and Procedures
In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance of achieving the desired control objectives. In addition, the design of disclosure controls and procedures must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by Rule 13a-15(d) and 15d-15(d) of the Exchange Act that occurred during the period covered by this Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
In the normal course of business, we become involved in litigation and other legal proceedings arising from the banking, financial, and other activities we conduct. Based on the information presently available, and after consultation with legal counsel, management believes that the ultimate outcome in such litigation and legal proceedings, in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our business, our financial condition, or the results of our operations. Where appropriate, reserves for these various matters of litigation and/or other legal proceedings are established, under FASB ASC Topic 450, Contingencies, based in part upon management’s judgment and the advice of legal counsel.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
For detailed information about certain risk factors that could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results see "Risk Factors" in Part I, Item 1A of the 2025 Form 10-K. Set forth below are material changes to our existing risk factors previously disclosed in the 2025 Form 10-K. Other than the risk factors set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors previously disclosed in the 2025 Form 10-K.

Increased exposure to residential mortgage assets may heighten sensitivity to interest rate changes, housing market conditions, and secondary market liquidity.

During the first quarter of 2026, we increased our exposure to residential mortgage loans through portfolio acquisitions and expect to further expand this exposure through additional residential loan purchases in 2026. As a result, residential mortgage loans now represent a larger portion of our earning assets, increasing our sensitivity to conditions in the residential real estate and mortgage markets.

Fluctuations in interest rates, home prices, borrower credit performance, and housing market activity directly affect the performance of residential mortgage assets. A decline in interest rates below the weighted average coupon of our portfolio could accelerate prepayments and asset runoff, reducing interest income if reinvestment opportunities are not available on comparable terms. Rising interest rates or economic uncertainty could adversely affect borrower affordability, housing demand, credit performance, and collateral values.

Our residential mortgage portfolio includes a significant concentration of jumbo and other nonconforming loans. The secondary market for these products is generally less liquid than the market for conforming mortgages and may be subject to volatility or disruption, which could limit our ability to sell or securitize loans, increase balance‑sheet exposure, and reduce flexibility in managing interest rate and credit risk.

Adverse developments in interest rates, housing market conditions, borrower performance, or secondary market liquidity could result in higher delinquencies, valuation changes, reduced interest or noninterest income, or increased charge‑offs. Any of these factors could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
101



Conditions or developments in Venezuela could adversely affect our operations.

At March 31, 2026, approximately 25.3% of our deposits, or $2.0 billion, were held by Venezuelan residents. Since the first quarter of 2026, we have experienced an increased influx of deposits from customers residing in Venezuela. All of the Bank’s deposits are denominated in U.S. dollars. The continuation of deposit inflows from customers residing in Venezuelan at or around similar levels to those experienced in the first quarter of 2026 is dependent, in part, on economic, political and regulatory conditions in Venezuela continuing to improve. Although there have been developments that may support such improvement, including changes in U.S. – Venezuela relations and the issuance of certain OFAC general licenses authorizing specified investments and transactions by U.S. entities in certain sectors and industries of the Venezuelan economy, as well as updates to relevant Venezuelan laws and regulations, the durability and scope of these developments remain uncertain. If economic or other conditions in Venezuela deteriorate, or if recent positive developments are reversed, we may experience a reduction in the influx of deposits from customers residing in Venezuela and our overall level of deposits held by those customers may decrease. Venezuelan customers rely on their U.S. dollar deposits to fund living expenses and other necessities and may have limited ability to generate additional U.S. dollars under adverse conditions, which could materially and adversely affect our deposit base.

In addition, while we seek to increase our trust, brokerage and investment advisory business from domestic and other international customers, substantially all our revenue from these services currently is derived from Venezuelan customers. Adverse economic and other conditions in Venezuela, as well as U.S. regulations or sanctions affecting the services we may provide to our Venezuelan customers may adversely affect the amounts of assets we manage or custody, and decrease trading activity by our Venezuelan customers. Such declines would reduce the fees and commissions we earn from these businesses, and may adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.
