"Our first quarter results reflect steady, solid profitability driven by disciplined execution of our strategy," said Fulton Chairman, CEO, and President, Curtis J. Myers. "The Blue Foundry Bancorp acquisition expands our presence in northern New Jersey and meaningfully advances our business objectives. We are pleased to welcome Blue Foundry Bank's team members and customers to Fulton. Our focus now turns to a seamless integration, a smooth customer transition, and the continued delivery of positive operating leverage and successful strategic outcomes."
Financial Highlights
First quarter of 2026 operating results of $0.55 per diluted share(1) were impacted by the following items:
- Net interest margin remained solid at 3.58%, representing a one basis point decline from the prior quarter.
- Non-interest income decreased $0.1 million to $69.8 million compared to $70.0 million in the prior quarter.
- Non-interest expense decreased $12.7 million to $200.3 million compared to $213.0 million in the prior quarter. Operating non-interest expense decreased $13.4 million to $190.7 million(1) compared to $204.1 million in the prior quarter.
- Provision for credit losses was $14.4 million resulting in an allowance for credit losses attributable to net loans of $367.5 million, or 1.51% of total net loans as of March 31, 2026.
- Common equity tier 1 capital ratio(2) increased to approximately 11.9% compared to 11.8% in the prior quarter.
- During the first quarter of 2026, 1,212,650 shares of the Corporation's common stock were repurchased under the 2026 Repurchase Program(3) at a cost of $24.5 million or an average of $20.21 per share.
The following items highlight notable changes in the components of net income in the first quarter of 2026 compared to the fourth quarter of 2025:
- Net interest income decreased $4.0 million to $262.0 million. A $10.1 million decrease in interest income on net loans and a $2.2 million decrease in interest income on investment securities were partially offset by an $8.6 million decrease in interest expense on deposits. Purchase loan mark accretion from loans acquired in the Republic Acquisition(4) was $10.3 million in the first quarter of 2026 compared to $10.5 million in the prior quarter.
- Non-interest income before investment securities gains (losses) was $69.8 million compared to $70.0 million in the prior quarter. The $0.1 million decrease was primarily due to decreases of $1.3 million in commercial banking fee income and $1.3 million in consumer banking fee income mainly attributable to two less days in the first quarter and seasonality, partially offset by a $1.3 million increase in income from equity method investments, reflected in other income, and a $0.6 million increase in wealth management revenues.
- Non-interest expense was $200.3 million compared to $213.0 million in the prior quarter. The $12.7 million decrease in non-interest expense was primarily due to a $11.7 million decrease in salaries and employee benefits expense primarily due to a $11.3 million decrease in incentive compensation expense. Acquisition-related expense associated with the Blue Foundry Bancorp transaction(5) was $2.6 million compared to $0.8 million in the prior quarter.
Balance Sheet Summary
- Total net loans increased $121.5 million to $24.3 billion compared to $24.1 billion as of December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to increases of $78.7 million in consumer loans(6) and $42.7 million in commercial loans(6) which included an opportunistic purchase of an in-market commercial loan portfolio.
- Deposits totaled $26.8 billion, a $178.9 million increase compared to $26.6 billion as of December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to increases of $362.4 million in savings deposits and $78.8 million in noninterest-bearing demand deposits, partially offset by decreases of $146.5 million in interest-bearing demand deposits and $139.2 million in brokered deposits.
Provision for Credit Losses and Asset Quality
- The provision for credit losses totaled $14.4 million in the first quarter of 2026, resulting in a $367.5 million allowance for credit losses attributable to net loans, or 1.51% of total net loans as of March 31, 2026, compared to $364.5 million, or 1.51% of total net loans as of December 31, 2025.
- Non-performing assets were $177.5 million, or 0.55% of total assets, as of March 31, 2026, in comparison to $185.2 million, or 0.58% of total assets, as of December 31, 2025.

Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP measures, are also useful to investors to evaluate the Corporation's results. Investors should recognize that the Corporation's presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures might not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
