President and Chief Executive Officer, Christopher T. Holmes stated, “We began the year with a recognition that speaks directly to who we are, being named the top bank for customer satisfaction and trust in the South Central Region by J.D. Power. That honor reinforces our customer-focused model and validates a cornerstone of how we measure success. We also delivered solid financial results in the quarter, with strong returns and loan and deposit growth that gained momentum in the back half of the period. When you have the highest level of endorsement from your customers about their satisfaction and you combine that with top-tier financial performance and one of the best geographies in the country, we believe we have a very compelling formula for creating value for our shareholders today and over the long term.”

Balance Sheet and Net Interest Margin
The Company reported loans HFI of $12.50 billion at the end of the first quarter of 2026, compared to $12.38 billion at the end of the prior quarter. The contractual yield on loans HFI decreased to 6.22% for the first quarter of 2026 from 6.34% for the previous quarter. Net growth in loans was attributable to increases of $57.3 million in commercial and industrial loans, $32.7 million in consumer and other loans, $25.1 million in commercial real estate loans and $16.5 million in residential real estate loans offset by a $11.4 million decline in construction loans.
The Company reported total deposits of $14.08 billion at the end of the first quarter compared to $13.91 billion at the end of the fourth quarter of 2025. Total cost of deposits decreased to 2.27% during the first quarter compared to 2.40% in the fourth quarter of 2025. The cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased to 2.80% from 2.99% in the previous quarter. Lower costs were driven primarily by the continued pass‑through of prior federal funds rate reductions, reducing indexed deposit costs and lowering rates across the broader interest‑bearing deposit base. Noninterest-bearing deposits were $2.66 billion at the end of the quarter compared to $2.63 billion at the end of the fourth quarter of 2025.
The Company reported net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis of $146.8 million for the first quarter of 2026, down from $150.6 million in the prior quarter. NIM decreased to 3.94% for the first quarter of 2026 from 3.98% for the previous quarter, driven primarily by lower yields on interest‑earning assets following the late fourth quarter of 2025 federal funds rate reduction, partially offset by lower funding costs. Net accretion from purchase accounting adjustments impacted margin by 17 basis points in the first quarter of 2026.
Holmes continued, “We had measured balance sheet growth in the first quarter, led by broad-based loan production and continued deposit expansion. While asset yields moderated following recent rate cuts, disciplined pricing and lower funding costs helped offset that pressure. Our deposit mix and repricing momentum position us well as we move through the year, and we remain focused on consistent, profitable growth.”

Noninterest Income
Adjusted noninterest income* was $25.9 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $27.7 million and $23.6 million for the prior quarter and first quarter of 2025, respectively.
Mortgage banking income was $12.3 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $13.5 million in the prior quarter and $12.4 million in the first quarter of 2025.
Noninterest Expense
Adjusted noninterest expense* during the first quarter of 2026 was $93.7 million compared to $100.4 million for the prior quarter and $79.1 million for the first quarter of 2025. The decrease reflects lower performance‑based compensation in the first quarter, as incentive expense was elevated in the fourth quarter due to higher levels of performance-based compensation. During the first quarter of 2026, the Company’s adjusted efficiency ratio*1was 54.3%, compared to 56.3% in the previous quarter and 59.9% in the first quarter of 2025.
Chief Financial Officer Michael Mettee commented, “We continued to build operating leverage in the first quarter as expense levels normalized and efficiency improved. Incentive and personnel costs returned to expected levels following elevated fourth quarter expense related to long‑term equity incentives. As volumes grow and we continue to focus on operating scale, we are well positioned to drive incremental profitability and stronger returns over time.”
Credit Quality
In the first quarter, the Company recorded provision expense of $3.8 million related to loans HFI and a provision reversal of $0.8 million associated with unfunded loan commitments. At the end of the first quarter of 2026, the Company had an allowance for credit losses on loans HFI of $186.3 million, representing 1.49% of loans HFI compared to $186.0 million, or 1.50% of loans HFI, at the end of the prior quarter.
The Company had net charge-offs of $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2026, representing annualized net charge-offs of 0.11% of average loans HFI, compared to 0.05% in the prior quarter and 0.14% in the first quarter of 2025.
The Company’s nonperforming loans HFI as a percentage of total loans HFI decreased slightly to 0.96% as of the end of the first quarter of 2026, compared to 0.97% in the prior quarter and 0.79% in the first quarter of 2025. Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets were relatively stable at 0.98% as of the end of the first quarter of 2026, compared to 0.97% at the end of the prior quarter and 0.84% as of the end of the first quarter of 2025.
Holmes commented, “Our credit quality remained sound during the quarter, supported by stable asset quality metrics. While net charge‑offs increased modestly, they remain at relatively low levels and consistent with our expectations. We ended the quarter with an allowance for credit losses that reflects the risk profile of the portfolio given the current economic outlook and our proactive approach to risk management as we continue to support growth.”
Capital
The Company maintained its strong capital position in the first quarter, resulting in a preliminary total risk-based capital ratio of 13.4%, preliminary common equity tier 1 ratio of 11.5% and tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio* of 9.91%. The Company repurchased 426,983 shares during the quarter.
Holmes continued, “We ended the quarter with a strong capital position, highlighted by tangible common equity of 9.91%, which provides us significant capital flexibility. That strength allows us to support organic growth, pursue strategic opportunities, and return capital to shareholders through share repurchases when appropriate. We are committed to deploying capital in ways that create long‑term value while maintaining a prudent risk profile.”
Summary
Holmes finalized, “The first quarter marked a solid start to the year, with a reassuring vote of confidence from our clients, disciplined balance sheet growth, improving efficiency, stable credit quality, and a solid capital position. Looking forward, we see active pipelines across our markets and remain optimistic about economic conditions in our footprint. With multiple avenues for growth and capital deployment, we are confident in our ability to continue delivering top‑tier returns for our shareholders.”

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements contained in this Earnings Release that are not historical in nature may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding the Company’s future plans, results, strategies, and expectations, including expectations around changing economic markets. These statements can generally be identified by the use of the words and phrases “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “goal,” “plan,” “potential,” “estimate,” “project,” “believe,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “target,” “aim,” “predict,” “continue,” “seek,” and other variations of such words and phrases and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based upon management’s current expectations, estimates, and projections, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond the Company’s control. The inclusion of these forward-looking statements should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that such expectations, estimates, and projections will be achieved. Accordingly, the Company cautions shareholders and investors that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions, and uncertainties that are difficult to predict.

Many of these factors are beyond the Company’s ability to control or predict. If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if the underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from the forward-looking statements. Accordingly, shareholders and investors should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date of this Earnings Release, and the Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law.

The Company qualifies all forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements.
GAAP RECONCILIATION AND USE OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This Earnings Release contains certain financial measures that are not measures recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and therefore are considered non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures may include, without limitation, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per common share, adjusted pre-tax pre-provision net revenue, consolidated adjusted revenue, consolidated adjusted and segment noninterest expense and consolidated adjusted noninterest income, consolidated adjusted efficiency ratio (tax-equivalent basis), and adjusted return on average assets and equity. Each of these non-GAAP metrics excludes certain income and expense items that the Company’s management considers to be adjusted in nature. The Company refers to these non-GAAP measures as adjusted measures. Also, the Company presents tangible assets, tangible common equity, tangible book value per common share, tangible common equity to tangible assets, return on average tangible common equity, and adjusted return on average tangible common equity. Each of these non-GAAP metrics excludes the impact of goodwill and other intangibles.
The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in their analysis of the Company’s performance, financial condition and the efficiency of its operations as management believes such measures facilitate period-to-period comparisons and provide meaningful indications of its operating performance as they eliminate both gains and charges that management views as non-recurring or not indicative of operating performance. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhance comparability of results with prior periods as well as demonstrate the effects of significant non-adjusted gains and charges in the current and prior periods. The Company’s management also believes that investors find these non-GAAP financial measures useful as they assist investors in understanding the Company’s underlying operating performance and in the analysis of ongoing operating trends. In addition, because intangible assets such as goodwill and the other items excluded each vary extensively from company to company, the Company believes that the presentation of this information allows investors to more easily compare the Company’s results to the results of other companies. However, the non-GAAP financial measures discussed herein should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which the Company calculates the non-GAAP financial measures discussed herein may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names. Investors should understand how such other banking organizations calculate their financial measures with names similar to the non-GAAP financial measures the Company has discussed herein when comparing such non-GAAP financial measures.
A reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the Company’s First Quarter 2026 Financial Supplement, which is available at https://investors.firstbankonline.com.
