    Board of Directors Declares Quarterly Cash Dividend of $0.09 per Common Share

    Amerant Bancorp Inc. (NYSE:AMTB) (the "Company" or "Amerant") today reported a net income attributable to the Company of $12.0 million in the first quarter of 2025, or $0.28 income per diluted share, compared to net income of $16.9 million, or $0.40 income per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2024.

    "Our results for the first quarter showed solid deposit growth as well as strong pre-provision net revenue, as net interest income and net interest margin were higher than expected. In addition, we exercised prudent expense management, even while continuing to execute on our strategy to add new locations and business development and risk management team members" stated Jerry Plush, Chairman and CEO. "However, loans were relatively flat quarter over quarter, as a result of increased payoffs and paydowns offsetting production in the first quarter. While loan demand going into the second quarter remains strong, borrowers may take a cautious approach given recent market volatility and uncertainty."

    • Total assets were $10.2 billion, an increase of $268.0 million, or 2.7%, compared to $9.9 billion in 4Q24.
    • Total gross loans were $7.2 billion, a decrease of $52.2 million, or 0.7%, compared to $7.3 billion in 4Q24.
    • Cash and cash equivalents were $648.4 million, up $58.0 million, or 9.8%, compared to $590.4 million in 4Q24.

    • Total advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") were $715.0 million, down $30.0 million, or 4.0%, compared to $745.0 million in 4Q24. The Bank had an aggregate borrowing capacity of $3.0 billion from the FED or FHLB as of March 31, 2025.
    • Net Interest Margin ("NIM") was 3.75%, unchanged from 4Q24.
    • Average yield on loans was 6.84%, compared to 7.00% at 4Q24.

The Company has provided additional details regarding asset quality in the 1Q25 earnings presentation (https://investor.amerantbank.com).
    • The allowance for credit losses ("ACL") was $98.3 million, an increase of $13.3 million, or 15.7%, compared to $85.0 million as of 4Q24. The increase in the ACL was attributable to the macroeconomic environment and the addition of specific reserves for several commercial credits based on receipt of 2024 year end financials for these borrowers.

All statements other than statements of historical fact are statements that could be forward-looking statements. You can identify these forward-looking statements through our use of words such as "may," "will," "anticipate," "assume," "should," "indicate," "would," "believe," "contemplate," "expect," "estimate," "continue," "plan," "point to," "project," "could," "intend," "target," "goals," "outlooks," "modeled," "dedicated," "create," and other similar words and expressions of the future.

    Forward-looking statements, including those relating to our beliefs, plans, objectives, goals, expectations, anticipations, estimates and intentions, involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, which may be beyond our control, and which may cause the Company's actual results, performance, achievements, or financial condition to be materially different from future results, performance, achievements, or financial condition expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. You should not rely on any forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. You should not expect us to update any forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

    Interim Financial Information

    Unaudited financial information as of and for interim periods, including the three month periods ended March 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2024 may not reflect our results of operations for our fiscal year ending, or financial condition, as of December 31, 2025, or any other period of time or date.

    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-provision net revenue (PPNR)", "core pre-provision net revenue (Core PPNR)", "core noninterest income", "core noninterest expense", "core net income", "core earnings per share (basic and diluted)", "core return on assets (Core ROA)", "core return on equity (Core ROE)", "core efficiency ratio", "tangible stockholders' equity (book value) per common share", "tangible common equity ratio, adjusted for net unrealized accumulated losses on debt securities held to maturity", and "tangible stockholders' equity (book value) per common share, adjusted for net unrealized accumulated losses on debt securities held to maturity". 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.

    Exhibit 2 reconciles these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP reported results.

    • Core deposits: consist of total deposits excluding all time deposits.
    • Assets under management and custody: consists of assets held for clients in an agency or fiduciary capacity which are not assets of the Company and therefore are not included in the consolidated financial statements.
    • Net interest margin, or NIM: defined as net interest income, or NII, divided by average interest-earning assets, which are loans, securities, deposits with banks and other financial assets which yield interest or similar income.
    • ROA and Core ROA are calculated based upon the average daily balance of total assets.
    • ROE and Core ROE are calculated based upon the average daily balance of stockholders' equity.
    • Total revenue is the result of net interest income before provision for credit losses plus noninterest income.
    • Total capital ratio: total stockholders' equity divided by total risk-weighted assets, calculated according to the standardized regulatory capital ratio calculations.

    • Tier 1 leverage ratio: Tier 1 capital divided by quarter to date average assets.
    • Common equity tier 1 capital ratio, CET1: Tier 1 capital divided by total risk-weighted assets.

    • Tangible common equity ratio, adjusted for unrealized losses on debt securities held to maturity: calculated in the same manner described in tangible common equity but also includes unrealized losses on debt securities held to maturity in the balance of common equity and total assets.
    • Loans to Deposits ratio: calculated as the ratio of total loans gross divided by total deposits.
    • Non-performing assets include all accruing loans past due by 90 days or more, all nonaccrual loans and other real estate owned ("OREO") properties acquired through or in lieu of foreclosure, and other repossessed assets.
    • Non-performing loans include all accruing loans past due by 90 days or more and all nonaccrual loans
    • Ratio for net charge-offs/average total loans held for investments: calculated based upon the average daily balance of outstanding loan principal balance net of unamortized deferred loan origination fees and costs, excluding the allowance for credit losses.
    • Other operating expenses: total noninterest expense less salary and employee benefits.
    • Efficiency ratio: total noninterest expense divided by the sum of noninterest income and NII.
    • Core efficiency ratio is the efficiency ratio less the effect of non-routine items, described in Exhibit 2 - Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation.
    • The terms of the FHLB advance agreements require the Bank to maintain certain investment securities or loans as collateral for these advances.
    • Cost of total deposits: calculated based upon the average balance of total noninterest bearing and interest bearing deposits, which includes time deposits.
