PROXY STATEMENT FOR THE VIRTUAL ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22, 2026

This proxy statement contains important information related to the annual meeting of shareholders of OFG Bancorp (“we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”). Our annual meeting of shareholders will be held virtually at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/OFG2026 on Wednesday, April 22, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. (AST), or any adjournments or postponements thereof. This proxy statement and the accompanying proxy card are expected to be made available to shareholders on or about April 22, 2026.

GENERAL QUESTIONS ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

What information is contained in this proxy statement?

The information in this proxy statement relates to the proposals to be voted on at the annual meeting, the voting process, our Board of Directors and its committees, the compensation of our directors and executive officers, and other required information.

Who is soliciting my vote?

Our Board of Directors is soliciting your vote at the annual meeting.

Who will bear the costs of soliciting proxies for the annual meeting?

This solicitation of proxies is made on behalf of our Board of Directors, and we will bear the costs of solicitation. The expense of preparing, assembling, printing and mailing this proxy statement and the materials used in this solicitation of proxies also will be borne by us. It is contemplated that proxies will be solicited principally through the internet or mail, but our directors, officers and employees may solicit proxies personally or by telephone. Upon request, we will reimburse banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for distributing these proxy materials to our shareholders.

We have retained Georgeson LLC, an independent proxy solicitation firm, to assist us with the solicitation of proxies for a fee not to exceed $13,500, plus reimbursement for out-of-pocket expenses.

What is the purpose of the annual meeting?

At the annual meeting, shareholders will act upon the matters outlined in the accompanying notice of annual meeting of shareholders, including the election of nine directors, the advisory vote related to executive compensation, the ratification of the selection of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2026 and the transaction of any other business that may properly come before the meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof. Proxies solicited hereby may be exercised only at the annual meeting, including any adjournments or postponements thereof, and will not be used for any other purpose.

Who is entitled to vote?

Only shareholders of record at the close of business on the record date, March 2, 2026 are entitled to receive notice of the annual meeting and to vote the shares of common stock that they held on that date at the meeting, or any adjournments or postponements thereof. As of the close of business on the record date, there were 42,477,261 shares of our common stock outstanding.

What is the difference between a holder of record and a beneficial owner of shares held in street name?

Holder of Record. If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC, you are considered the holder (or shareholder) of record with respect to those shares. As a holder of record, you should have been furnished the notice of internet availability of proxy materials and a proxy card directly by us.

Beneficial Owner of Shares Held in Street Name. If your shares are held in an account at a securities broker, bank or other similar organization acting as a nominee, then you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name.” The organization holding your account is considered the holder of record for purposes of voting at the annual meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct that organization on how to vote the shares held in your account. Accordingly, you should have been furnished the notice of internet availability of proxy materials and a voting instruction form by that organization.

How do I vote?

You can vote by proxy prior to the meeting or through the virtual meeting platform during the meeting. We highly recommend that you vote by proxy prior to the meeting even if you plan to attend the meeting. Detailed instructions on how to vote by proxy through the internet, by telephone or by mail will be set forth in the notice of internet availability of proxy materials that you will receive through the mail. This notice will also include a 16-digit control number that you will need to attend the virtual meeting and vote your shares. Your vote by proxy must be received as of the close of Tuesday, April 21, 2026, the business day immediately preceding the annual meeting. You may also vote on the day of the meeting by attending the meeting and registering your vote through the virtual meeting platform.

To avoid delays in ballot taking and counting and ensure that your proxy is voted in accordance with your wishes, we respectfully request that you give your full title when signing a proxy as attorney, executor, administrator, trustee, guardian, authorized officer of an entity, or on behalf of a minor. If shares are registered in the name of more than one shareholder of record, all shareholders of record must sign the proxy card.

What should I do if I have not received a notice of internet availability of proxy materials by mail?

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name”, you should contact your securities broker, bank or other nominee that holds your shares to request a copy of your notice and verify that they have your correct address in their records.

If you are a holder of record, contact OFG Bancorp Investor Relations 254 Muñoz Rivera Avenue, San Juan, PR 00918; E-mail: Gary Fishman at gfishman@ofgbancorp.com or Michael Wichman at michael.wichman@ofgbancorp.com; Telephone: (212) 532-3232.

How many votes do I have?

Each outstanding share of our common stock entitles its holder to cast one vote on each matter to be voted upon, except with respect to the election of directors in which you may cumulate your votes.

Pursuant to our articles of incorporation and by-laws, you have the right to cumulate your votes at annual meetings in which more than one director is being elected. Cumulative voting entitles you to a number of votes equal to the number of shares of common stock held by you multiplied by the number of directors to be elected. As a holder of our shares of common stock, you may cast all or any number of such votes for one nominee or distribute such votes among any two or more nominees as you desire. Thus, for example, for the election of the nine nominees being considered at this annual meeting, a shareholder owning 1,000 shares of our common stock is entitled to 9,000 votes and may distribute such votes equally among the nominees for election, cast them for the election of only one of such nominees, or otherwise distribute such votes as he or she desires.

If you return an executed proxy but do not expressly indicate that your votes should be cumulated in a particular fashion, the votes represented by your proxy will be distributed equally among the nominees designated by our Board of Directors or in such other fashion as will most likely ensure the election of all the nominees.

How does our Board of Directors recommend that I vote?

Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR” the election of each nominee to the Board, “FOR” the advisory vote related to the compensation of our executives, and “FOR” the ratification of our independent registered public accounting firm for 2026.

Each proxy also confers discretionary authority on our Board of Directors to vote the proxy with respect to: (i) the approval of the minutes of the last annual meeting of shareholders; (ii) the election of any person as director if any nominee is unable to serve or, for good cause, will not serve; (iii) matters incident to the conduct of the annual meeting; and (iv) such other matters as may properly come before the annual meeting. Except with respect to procedural matters incident to the conduct of the annual meeting, we are not aware of any business that may properly come before the meeting other than those matters described in this proxy statement. However, if any other matters should properly come before the annual meeting, it is intended that proxies solicited hereby will be voted with respect to those other matters as recommended by our Board of Directors or, if no recommendation is given, in accordance with the judgment of the proxy holders.

What constitutes a quorum at the annual meeting?

The presence at the meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock outstanding on the record date will constitute a quorum, permitting us to hold the meeting. As of the record date, 42,477,261 shares of our common stock were outstanding. Proxies received but marked as abstentions and broker non-votes will be included in the calculation of the number of shares considered to be present at the meeting for purposes of determining quorum. A “broker non-vote” occurs when a securities broker, bank or other nominee indicates on the proxy card that it does not have discretionary authority to vote on a particular matter. Votes cast by proxy will be counted by Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., an independent third party. We urge you to vote by proxy even if you plan to attend the meeting, so that we will know as soon as possible that enough votes will be present for us to hold the meeting.

Can I change my vote after I return my proxy card?

Yes. After you have submitted your proxy card, you may change your vote at any time before the proxy is exercised. To do so, just send in a new proxy card with a later date or cast a new vote by telephone or over the Internet, or send a written notice of revocation to the Secretary of our Board of Directors, P.O. Box 195115, San Juan, Puerto Rico 00919-5115, delivered before the proxy is exercised. If you attend the meeting and want to vote, you may request that your previously submitted proxy not be used. Attendance at the meeting will not by itself revoke a previously granted proxy.

What vote is required to approve each item and how are abstentions and broker non-votes treated?

Action with respect to the election of directors will be taken by a majority of the votes cast by shareholders represented by attendance or by proxy at the annual meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors (which number will take into account the accumulation of votes described above). To be elected, each director nominee must receive more votes cast “FOR” such nominee’s election than votes cast “WITHHOLD AUTHORITY” for such nominee’s election. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be counted as either an affirmative vote or a negative vote regarding the election of directors and, therefore, will not have a legal effect on such election.

For the advisory vote on the compensation of our executives and the ratification of our independent registered public accounting firm for 2026, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares represented in person or by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote will be required for approval. Abstentions will have the same effect as a negative vote, and broker non-votes will not be counted in determining the number of shares necessary for approval.

What happens if I do not give specific voting instructions?

Holder of Record. If you are a holder of record and you sign and return a proxy card without giving specific instructions, then the proxy holders will vote your shares in the manner recommended by our Board of Directors and as the proxy holders may determine in their discretion with respect to any other matters properly presented for a vote at the meeting.

Beneficial Owner of Shares Held in Street Name. If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and do not provide the organization that holds your shares with specific voting instructions, under the rules of various national and regional securities exchanges, the organization that holds your shares may generally vote on routine matters but cannot vote on non-routine matters. If the organization that holds your shares does not receive instructions from you on how to vote your shares on a non-routine matter, the organization that holds your shares will inform us that it does not have the authority to vote on such matter with respect to your shares (that is, a “broker non-vote”). Except for the ratification of our independent registered public accounting firm for 2026, we believe that each of the proposals set forth in this proxy statement will be considered non-routine under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (which apply to brokers), and therefore, there could be broker non-votes on such proposals.

What happens if the annual meeting is adjourned or postponed?

Your proxy will still be valid and may be voted at the adjourned or postponed meeting. You will still be able to change or revoke your proxy before it is exercised.

What if I have difficulties accessing the annual meeting?

If you encounter any technical difficulties with the meeting website on the day of the meeting, please call the technical support number that will be available on the login page of the meeting website. Technical support will be available beginning at 8:45 a.m. (AST) on the day of the meeting and will remain available throughout the meeting.

Can I ask pertinent questions during the annual meeting?

You may submit questions during the meeting by logging into the meeting website at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/OFG2026 using your 16-digit control number and typing your question into the “Ask a Question” file and clicking “Submit.” Only questions pertinent to the business to be conducted at the annual meeting will be answered during the meeting, subject to time limitations.

If any pertinent questions cannot be answered during the meeting due to time constraints, we will post and answer a representative set of these questions online at www.ofgbancorp.com. The questions and answers will be available as soon as reasonably practicable after the meeting and will remain available for at least one week after posting.

How do I inspect the list of shareholders of record?

A list of shareholders of record as of March 2, 2026 will be available for inspection by shareholders during the annual meeting. You may access the list during the meeting by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/OFG2026 and entering your 16-digit control number and clicking “View Shareholder List” on the meeting website.

PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Our Board of Directors consists of one class of nine directors elected annually until the end of their one-year term and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. Our by-laws provide that directors in uncontested elections will be elected by a majority of the votes cast by our shareholders, rather than a plurality of the votes cast. Our Director Resignation Policy requires that any director that does not receive the majority of votes cast by our shareholders in an uncontested election submit his or her resignation to our Board of Directors promptly after the certification of the voting results. Thereafter, our Board of Directors will have 90 days to evaluate the resignation, and if the resignation is not accepted, will disclose the reasons therefore to our shareholders.

There are no arrangements or understandings between us and any person pursuant to which such person has been elected as a director. No director is related to any of our directors or executive officers, by blood, marriage or adoption (excluding those that are more remote than first cousin).

Set forth below is certain information with respect to each nominee.

For purposes of the foregoing table, beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, pursuant to which shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if he or she directly or indirectly, through any contract, arrangement, understanding, relationship or otherwise has or shares the power to vote or direct the voting of the shares, and/or the power to dispose or direct the disposition of the shares, whether or not he or she has any economic interest therein. Unless otherwise indicated in the foregoing table, the named beneficial owner has sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares, subject, in the case of those directors and officers who are married, to the marital community property laws of Puerto Rico. Under Rule 13d-3, a person is deemed to have beneficial ownership of any shares of common stock which he or she has a right to acquire within 60 days, including, without limitation, pursuant to the exercise of any option, warrant or right. Shares of common stock which are subject to such options or other rights of acquisition are deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of outstanding common stock owned by such person but are not deemed outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of common stock owned by any other person.

BOARD INDEPENDENCE, LEADERSHIP STRUCTURE AND RISK OVERSIGHT

Except for José Rafael Fernández, who is our President and CEO, all of our directors are “independent” pursuant to the corporate governance listing standards adopted by the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) for listed companies.

Our Board of Directors has adopted standards and definitions to assist it in the evaluation of the independence of its members. The standards and definitions adopted by the Board describe various types of relationships that could potentially exist between a director and the Company and sets thresholds at which such relationships would be deemed to be material. If no relationship or transaction exists that would disqualify a director from being independent under such standards and definitions, and no other relationships or transactions exist of a type not specifically mentioned therein that in the Board’s opinion, taking into account all facts and circumstances, would impair a director’s ability to exercise his or her independent judgment, the Board will deem such director to be independent. Such standards and definitions are available on our website at www.ofgbancorp.com.

Our Board of Directors has nine members, with only one non-independent member, the CEO. Currently, José R. Fernández holds both the roles of Chairman and CEO and Mr. De Jesús as the Lead Independent Director.

Pursuant to our bylaws, and as part of its review of corporate governance and succession planning, our Board of Directors, led by the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, conducts an annual self-evaluation and determines the most effective board leadership structure for the Company. Our Board of Directors also recognizes that different structures may be appropriate for the Company at different times. In this regard, the Board chooses whether to keep the roles of CEO and Chairperson separate or whether to have one person serve in both capacities. The Board believes that both of these arrangements can yield strong benefits to the Company as long as an independent director is appointed to a leadership role in the Board, which could be in the role of a Chairperson or of a lead independent director. The Board has determined that the most appropriate structure for the Company is to have a corporate leadership structure that combines the roles of the Chairperson of the Board and the CEO.

To align the interests of our directors and top executives with our shareholders, the Board adopted the Officers and Directors Stock Ownership Policy. Pursuant to such policy, our directors are required to hold common stock of the Company with a total value that is not less than four times their annual cash compensation within a period of 3 years of their first equity award.

Our Board of Directors, its Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, Risk and Compliance Committee, Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, the Bank’s Credit Committee and Trust Committee, and management’s Asset and Liability Management Team (the “ALT”), Credit Risk Team, Risk and Compliance Team, Consumer Compliance Team and various credit teams are actively involved in overseeing the management of the risks involved in our business and operations. However, the Board ultimately determines the level of risk that is acceptable for the Company within general guidelines and regulatory requirements. The Board considers that effective risk management is a fundamental part of good management practice and is committed to maintaining sound risk management systems. To this end, the Board is responsible for adopting several risk policies and reviewing the effectiveness of our risk management program. In order to appropriately discharge their risk oversight functions, the Board and its committees have access to senior management and the right to consult with and retain independent legal and other advisors at our expense pursuant to our Corporate Governance Principles and Guidelines. In addition, Board members are required to complete periodic training courses relating to banking regulations and cybersecurity, which includes 5 course hours of topics related to financial institutions and their governance. The Board, the Audit Committee and the Risk and Compliance Committee also regularly meet with and receive written reports from senior management, including our Chief Risk Officer, Chief Compliance Officer and Internal Audit Department, who evaluate significant risk exposures and contribute to our risk management and internal control system.

The Board of Directors oversees cybersecurity and information security risk as part of its enterprise risk management responsibilities. The Board has delegated primary oversight of cybersecurity risk to the Risk and Compliance Committee. Management provides regular updates regarding cybersecurity threats, incidents, preparedness, and response capabilities, as well as the Company's risk management practices.

The Compensation Committee assists the Board in ensuring that our compensation program encourages decision-making that is in the best long-term interest of the Company and its shareholders and does not encourage excessive or inappropriate risk-taking. Moreover, the ALT has responsibility for overseeing the management of our assets and liabilities to balance our risk exposures. Its principal objective is to enhance profitability while maintaining appropriate levels of liquidity and interest rate risks. The Credit Committee of the Bank’s Board and

management’s Credit Risk Team and various credit teams have responsibility for setting and implementing strategies to achieve our credit risk goals and objectives in accordance with the credit policy approved

by our Board of Directors. The management Risk and Compliance Team has responsibility for overseeing the implementation of our risk management program. In sum, all such committees assist and report to the Board in connection with the monitoring and oversight of certain risks and/or the implementation of the policies and objectives adopted by the Board.

BOARD MEETINGS

Our Board of Directors held 5 meetings in 2025. No incumbent director attended fewer than 75% of the aggregate of the total number of Board meetings and the total number of meetings of Board committees in which he served in that year. Board members are required to attend our annual meeting of shareholders. All Board members then in office attended last year’s annual meeting of shareholders.

EXECUTIVE MEETINGS OF NON-MANAGEMENT DIRECTORS

Our Board of Directors holds regular meetings of “non-management directors” (that is, directors who are not executive officers of the Company) to promote open discussions and better communication among such directors. Néstor De Jesús, the Lead Independent Director of the Board, has been chosen to preside at such meetings.

BOARD COMMITTEES

Our Board of Directors has a standing Audit Committee, Risk and Compliance Committee, Compensation Committee and Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee.

The Audit Committee assists our Board of Directors in its oversight of our financial reporting process and meets without management’s presence. It fulfills its oversight responsibilities by reviewing: (a) the integrity of the financial reports and other financial information provided by us to any governmental or regulatory body or to the public; and (b) our auditing, accounting, and financial reporting processes generally. The members of this committee are Rafael Vélez, Chairman, Roberto García, and Angel Vázquez. Our Board of Directors has determined that each member of this committee is financially literate or has accounting or related financial management expertise, and that Rafael Vélez is an “audit committee financial expert,” as such term is defined in Item 407(d)(5) of U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Regulation S-K. It met 9 times in 2025.

The Audit Committee operates pursuant to a written charter that has been approved by our Board of Directors, a current copy of which is available on our website at www.ofgbancorp.com. All of its members are independent directors as required by the NYSE and the SEC.

The Risk and Compliance Committee assists our Board of Directors in its oversight of our internal controls, enterprise risk management, including cybersecurity and information security risk, and legal and regulatory compliance. It fulfills its oversight responsibilities by reviewing our systems of internal controls regarding finance, accounting, legal and regulatory compliance, and ethics that management and our Board of Directors have established. The members of this committee are Susan Harnett, Chairperson, Néstor De Jesús, Vice Chairman, and Lynda Grindstaff. It met 4 times in 2025.

The Risk and Compliance Committee operates pursuant to a written charter that has been approved by our Board of Directors, a current copy of which is available on our website at www.ofgbancorp.com. All of its members are independent directors.

The Compensation Committee discharges the responsibilities of our Board of Directors relating to compensation of our directors and executive officers. Its general responsibilities are: (a) reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of the CEO; (b) evaluating the CEO’s performance in light of those goals and objectives; (c) making recommendations to our Board of Directors with respect to CEO compensation, and approving director compensation; (d) producing a committee report on executive compensation; (e) succession planning; and (f) conducting an annual performance evaluation of itself. This committee also administers our equity-based compensation plan and is given absolute discretion to, among other things, construe and interpret the plan; to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the plan; to select the persons to whom plan awards will be given; to determine the number of shares subject to each plan award; and to determine the terms and conditions to which each plan award is subject. The committee is chaired by Jorge Colón-Gerena, and includes as members Néstor De Jesús and Annette Franqui. In 2025, the committee held 2 meetings.

The Compensation Committee operates pursuant to a written charter that has been approved by our Board of Directors, a current copy of which is available on our website at www.ofgbancorp.com. All of its members are independent directors as required by the NYSE.

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee assists our Board of Directors by: (a) identifying individuals qualified to become directors consistent with criteria approved by the Board; (b) selecting or recommending that the Board select the director nominees for the next annual meeting of shareholders; (c) developing and recommending to the Board a set of corporate governance principles applicable to us that are consistent with sound corporate governance practices and in compliance with applicable legal, regulatory, or other requirements; (d) monitoring and reviewing any other corporate governance matters which the Board may refer to this committee; and (e) performing an annual evaluation of the Board, Board committees and each of the directors individually. The members of this committee are Annette Franqui, Chairperson, Néstor De Jesús, Vice Chairman, and Susan Harnett. It met 3 times in 2025.

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee operates pursuant to a written charter that has been approved by our Board of Directors, a current copy of which is available on our website at www.ofgbancorp.com. All of its members are independent directors as required by the NYSE.

Pursuant to our by-laws, no nominations for directors, except those made by our Board of Directors upon the recommendation of the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, will be voted upon at the annual meeting unless other nominations by shareholders are made in writing, together with certain information about the nominating shareholder and the nominee, including the nominee’s qualifications for service and his or her written consent to serve on our Board of Directors if elected, and delivered to the Secretary of the Board at least 120 days prior to the anniversary date of the mailing of proxy materials in connection with last year’s annual meeting. Ballots bearing the names of all of the persons nominated by our Board of Directors and by shareholders, if properly made, will be provided for use at the annual meeting. The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee has not established any specific, minimum qualifications that it believes must be met by a nominee recommended by such committee for a position on our Board of Directors. The Committee instead considers general factors, including, without limitation, the candidate’s experience with other businesses and organizations, the interplay of such experience with the experience of other Board members, and the extent to which the candidate would be a desirable addition to the Board and any of its committees.

BOARD DIVERSITY

The Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee generally identifies qualified candidates based on recommendations made by existing directors, management, or independent consultants. There are no differences in the manner in which the committee evaluates nominees for director based on whether the nominee is recommended by a shareholder. The committee will consider potential nominees by management, shareholders or other members of the Board, and develop and evaluate information from a variety of sources regarding the potential nominee before making a decision.

Pursuant to its charter, the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee considers diversity, among other factors such as competencies, experience, age and other appropriate qualities, to determine which candidates it recommends to our Board of Directors for approval as nominees. The committee focuses mainly on achieving a balance of experience on the Board that represents a cross-section of the communities we serve, including directors with experience in the public and private sectors, experience in the healthcare, legal, accounting professions, experience in technology and cybersecurity, and experience in a variety of industries relevant to our business needs.

The following graphs provide a visual representation of the tenure, age, independence and gender of the nominees to our Board.

ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE PROGRAM

Our Company’s Environmental, Social and Governance (“ESG”) Program was established in 2020 with the adoption by the Board of Directors of our ESG Policy. Our ESG Policy establishes as the Company’s policy to continuously strive to be socially and environmentally sustainable and to have effective governance practices that protect our key stakeholders – our clients, employees, shareholders and the communities we serve. It establishes the Company’s human rights and environmental impact policy. Our human rights policy requires the Company to respect the human rights of all individuals and to not do business with any company that engages in human rights violations. Our environmental impact policy recognizes the impact of greenhouse gases on global warming. As such, our policy is to strive to decrease consumption of natural resources, promote the use of recyclable and biodegradable materials, and avoid any developments that have an adverse effect on high biodiversity environments.

Pursuant to the ESG Policy, our General Counsel will establish and implement an ESG Program under the supervision of the CEO for monitoring and reporting our Company’s performance along established ESG metrics. Our ESG Program is overseen by our Board of Directors. Our ESG Policy requires that we prepare and publish an annual ESG report to our stakeholders. Initially, the Company has adopted the commercial banking, mortgage finance and consumer finance standards of the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board as our framework for disclosing our ESG performance to our various stakeholders.

In December 2025, we published our sixth consecutive ESG report based primarily on the metrics established for our principal industries by the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board. More information related to our ESG Program and our Company’s published ESG reports are available in the ESG page on our website at www.ofgbancorp.com.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLES AND GUIDELINES

We have adopted a set of Corporate Governance Principles and Guidelines to promote the functioning of our Board of Directors and its committees, to protect and enhance shareholder value, and to set forth a common set of expectations as to how the Board, its various committees, individual directors and management should perform their functions. We have also adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that reaffirms our basic policies of business conduct and ethics for our directors, officers, employees and agents. It consists of basic and general standards of business as well as personal conduct. The Corporate Governance Principles and Guidelines and the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics are available on our website at www.ofgbancorp.com.

In September 2024, our Technology and Information Security Oversight Team approved an Artificial Intelligence ("AI") Guideline to support the responsible use of AI, including generative AI, across the Company. The AI Guideline is intended to help ensure appropriate governance, human oversight, and risk management in connection with AI-enabled tools and use cases.

PROPOSAL 2: ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), we are required to have a separate non-binding shareholder vote to approve the compensation of our Named Executive Officers at least once every three years. This is commonly known as a “say-on-pay” vote. At the annual meeting of shareholders held in 2025, a majority of our shareholders voted in favor of holding the say-on-pay vote every year. As previously disclosed, the Company has decided to hold such vote every year until the next shareholder advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation.

We have in place a comprehensive executive compensation program under the oversight of the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors. Our program is described under the heading “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” and in the tabular and narrative disclosures related to Named Executive Officers in this proxy statement. The Compensation Committee continually monitors the program as well as general economic, regulatory and legislative developments affecting executive compensation.

Our executive compensation program is intended to reward achievements of Company performance objectives aligned with our strategic plan and the creation of shareholder value. We seek to attract and retain the most talented and effective executive team for the Company by providing an appropriate mix of fixed versus variable compensation while emphasizing pay-for-performance in accordance with our short and long-term goals.

In 2025, we demonstrated our ability to deliver consistent market leading results.

2025 Compensation Highlights. Given our strong shareholder support for our executive compensation program last year, there were no significant changes in the design of our compensation program or the compensation of our executives. In recognition of the strong performance delivered under the Company's 2022-2025 Strategic Plan, the Board of Directors concluded that the Chief Executive Officer and the Executive Team exceeded the Board's expectations in executing the Company's strategic priorities and advancing long-term shareholder value. Based on this assessment, and consistent with the Company's pay-for-performance philosophy, the Compensation Committee approved special grants of performance-based equity tied to the accomplishment of performance goals for December 31, 2028. These awards included a performance share award to the Chief Executive Officer with a grant-date value of $750,000, and performance shares awards with a grant-date value of $200,000 each to the Chief Financial Officer, Chief Risk Officer, and Chief Retail Banking Officer. The Committee determined that these awards appropriately recognize exceptional leadership and execution during the strategic plan period while further aligning executive compensation with the Company's long-term performance and shareholder interests.

2025 Advisory Vote on Executive Compensation. At the 2025 annual meeting of shareholders, our executive compensation program received the support of 98% of our shareholders. We believe that our executive compensation program is designed to support the Company and our business strategies in concert with our compensation philosophies and objectives.

What Guides Our Program

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives. The philosophy of our executive compensation program is to provide competitive compensation that rewards achievement of our strategic objectives supporting the creation of shareholder value. Accordingly, the main objectives of our program are to:

•Align the interests of our executives with our shareholders;

•Reward short and long-term financial performance by the Company;

•Reward superior individual performance;

•Attract and retain seasoned executives; and

•Ensure proper governance practices.

Our philosophy is to align the interests of our executives with our shareholders by promoting ownership of our Company’s common stock through equity awards and minimum stock ownership requirements. Furthermore, a significant component of our compensation program for our NEOs, is incentive (variable) compensation that is primarily tied to financial, operational and strategic results over both short and long-term performance periods.

We are cognizant of our competitive environment for superior executive talent and seek to maintain a compensation strategy that is competitive in the financial services industry in Puerto Rico and the United States.

Elements of Compensation. We have established three primary elements for our executive compensation program: base salary, annual cash bonus awards and long-term equity-based compensation. These elements are reviewed to ensure an appropriate mix of fixed versus variable compensation and focus on both short and long-term business performance.

Base salary is designed to be competitive with comparable executive positions and considers the complexity and unique challenges of each executive’s position, individual skills, experience, background and performance.

Annual cash bonus awards are based on a balanced scorecard that takes into consideration the accomplishment of Company-wide performance goals and, for certain executives, their business unit’s performance and individual performance evaluation.

Long-term incentives are granted to our executives in the form of performance-based and time-based awards to foster ownership of the Company’s common stock, link our executives’ compensation to shareholder value and support our leadership retention objectives.

Compensation Mix. The charts below show the target total direct compensation of Mr. Fernández, our CEO, and the average of our other NEOs for 2025. These charts illustrate that a significant portion of compensation is variable and performance-based.

Determination of Compensation Decisions

The Company’s Compensation Committee, senior management and independent compensation consultant play key roles in making compensation decisions with respect to our executives.

The Role of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors plays a key role in the development and oversight of our compensation program. It consists entirely of independent directors and operates under a written charter approved by our Board of Directors, which is publicly available at www.ofgbancorp.com. The Compensation Committee recommends for approval by the Board of Directors the employment agreement that governs the compensation of our CEO Mr. Fernández, approves the corporate scorecard used to determine all or a significant portion of the annual cash bonus for our NEOs, and grants equity awards to all executives under our long-term incentive plan. As appropriate, it looks to our senior management and independent compensation consultants for support in its work. While the Compensation Committee values input and advice from these and other sources, it exercises its independent judgment in reaching its decisions.

The Compensation Committee approves base salary increases and the incentive compensation of the CEO. The CEO's compensation level is guided by the terms of his Employment Agreement. The Compensation Committee may increase his salary after the first year, and his target performance bonus under our annual bonus plan and his target long-term incentive are based on a percentage of his base salary established by the Compensation Committee.

In conducting its annual evaluation of the CEO’s performance, the Compensation Committee considers the CEO’s contributions to the overall performance of the Company, including his individual performance. It also reviews our key operating results along with the accomplishment of our key strategic initiatives and considers the

standard of living in San Juan, Puerto Rico, where our main offices are located. As part of this process, the Compensation Committee reviews all relevant information or data, including the results of our CEO’s performance scorecard and compensation levels for chief executive officers at peer group companies and the operating environment in which the Company does business. The CEO does not participate in any decision regarding his compensation.

Our Compensation Committee also considers other relevant factors in making compensation decisions or recommendations for our CEO, including salary data for comparable positions at peer group companies in Puerto Rico and the U.S., and compensation levels at the Company.

Determining Goals. The Compensation Committee is responsible for establishing both short and long-term goals that guide both our cash bonus award and the level of achievement of performance shares. For the Compensation Committee to perform its goal-setting functions, the following process is followed.

Prior to the beginning of the year, the Board reviews and approves the Company’s strategic plan, and senior executives and department or division heads meet and discuss the Company’s strategic plan and the goals for the Company in the upcoming year that will form part of the Company scorecard. At the beginning of the year, the Board reviews and approves an annual budget for the Company on a consolidated basis and separately for its banking subsidiary. The Compensation Committee then reviews and assesses performance goals presented by management and determines the structure of the annual goals for the Company scorecard and the goals over a three-year performance cycle for determining the payout of performance shares.

For certain executives, the Company scorecard determines the payout of their annual bonus awards, whereas for others, the Company scorecard is multiplied by the business unit performance goal adjustment to determine 90% of the cash bonus, and the remaining 10% of their cash bonus is based on individual performance evaluations.

Performance share goals include minimum performance thresholds that must be met to earn any award, as well as performance levels required to achieve maximum payouts. Performance goals for the business units that impact the annual cash bonus are established by the CEO with the support of the Finance and Human Resources Departments.

The level of achievement of such goals that form part of the Company scorecard plays an essential role in the determination of the annual cash bonus awards. On a quarterly basis, senior management and our Board of Directors review our actual financial performance against the goals set for the year. In addition, our Board of Directors receives quarterly reports detailing our actual financial performance compared to these goals. Such reports are discussed in the corresponding Board meetings.

Each annual cash bonus performance goal is assigned a weight. For 2025, performance goals had a minimum level of achievement ranging between 70% and 90%, and a maximum level of achievement of 150%. Executives must achieve a minimum rating on their individual performance evaluations to be eligible for any annual cash bonus. Each target bonus is expressed as a percentage of the executive’s base salary.

The Role of Senior Management. Our CEO, with the assistance of our Human Resources Director and an independent compensation consultant, establishes the base salary and target cash bonus award of all other executives of the Company and recommends to our Compensation Committee equity awards for other executives.

In making compensation decisions, our CEO, with the assistance of our Human Resources Director, considers several factors, such as the scope, complexity and degree of challenge of each executive’s responsibilities, as well as his or her performance, skills, experience and succession potential. In the past, he has also considered in making decisions, among other information, industry compensation and benefits studies prepared by an independent compensation consultant.

On a quarterly basis, our Finance Department assesses the progress of the goals set for the year and, at the end of the year, evaluate their results. These assessments are reviewed by the CEO who together with our Director of Human Resources and such executive’s direct supervisor undertakes an evaluation of each executive’s performance based, in part, on objective measures set forth in the performance scorecard. The CEO considers the financial performance of the Company, the performance of each department or division, and the individual performance of each executive relative to the goals set for the year and evaluates the compensatory recommendations provided by our Human Resources Director. In the interest of fairness, he may also take into consideration subjective or non-formulaic factors.

The Role of the Compensation Consultant and the Peer Group. Our Compensation Committee engaged Pearl Meyer, an independent compensation consultant, to review the Company’s compensation practices with respect to our NEOs relative to our peers and develop recommendations that align better with our shareholders’ expectations

for our compensation program in 2025. As part of this process, they updated the peer group of financial institutions

for the Company and prepared a comparison of the compensation of our NEOs with persons in comparable positions at peer financial institutions. Our consultant also developed recommendations for the Compensation Committee’s consideration based on their findings.

Pearl Meyer reports directly to the Compensation Committee and does not provide any other services to the Company. The Compensation Committee has analyzed whether the work of Pearl Meyer has raised any conflicts of interest, taking into consideration the following factors, among others: (i) the provision of other services to the Company by Pearl Meyer; (ii) the amount of fees from the Company paid to Pearl Meyer as a percentage of their respective total revenues; (iii) Pearl Meyer’s policies and procedures that are designed to prevent conflicts of interest; (iv) any business or personal relationship of Pearl Meyer or the individual compensation advisors employed by Pearl Meyer with an executive officer of the Company; (v) any business or personal relationship of the individual compensation advisors with any member of the Compensation Committee; and (vi) any stock of the Company owned by Pearl Meyer or the individual compensation advisors employed by Pearl Meyer. The Compensation Committee has determined, based on its analysis of the above factors, among others, that the work of Pearl Meyer and the individual compensation advisors employed by Pearl Meyer as compensation consultants to the Company has not created any conflicts of interest.

The Role of Peer Market Data

The peer group was proposed for the Company by Pearl Meyer and approved by our Compensation Committee. Our peer group was selected considering the total asset size of the companies and the regional markets in which they operate relative to the asset size and regional markets of OFG Bancorp. The peer group for our compensation decisions consisted of the following companies:

Amerant Bancorp Inc.	NBT Bancorp Inc.	Seacoast Banking Corporation of Florida
BancFirst Corporation	National Bank Holdings Corporation	ServisFirst Bancshares, Inc.

Annual Cash Bonus. In 2025, the target bonus percentage of our NEOs remained the same. The table below shows the bonus opportunities at target-level performance for 2024 and 2025.


	2024 Target Bonus			2025 Target Bonus
Name	%		Amount ($)	%		Amount ($)
José R. Fernández	100	%	981,750	100	%	981,750

The Compensation Committee adjusted the existing scorecard metrics, which continue to be tied to financial criteria that address protecting and growing franchise value in a safe and sound manner. The Compensation Committee established performance metrics based on four key business goals, growth, agility, resiliency, and operating leverage:

•Growth – Grow our loan portfolio and our deposits,

•Agility -- Increase customers and digital adoption,

•Resiliency -- Decrease the Texas Ratio, and

•Operating leverage -- Decrease the efficiency ratio and increase income before taxes.

The table below presents our 2025 Company-wide performance goals, including the weight of each goal and the percent of achievement of the target amount.


Performance Measure	Weight	% of Target		Score
Loan Growth	20	114.78	%	22.96
Deposit Growth	20	206.09	%	30.00
Customer & Digital Adoption Growth	20	109.67	%	21.93
Texas Ratio	10	85.45	%	8.55
Income Before Taxes	10	100.07	%	10.01
Efficiency Ratio	20	101.88	%	20.38
Total				113.83

To determine the bonus payout for our CEO, Mr. Fernández, and our CFO, Ms. Arizmendi, the target bonus opportunity is multiplied by the result of the corporate scorecard. For the other executives, it is also multiplied by the business unit performance goal adjustment to determine 90% of their cash bonus, and the remaining 10% of their cash bonus is based on their individual performance evaluation. The table below shows the cash bonuses of the NEOs for their performance in 2025.


	Target Bonus %		Performance Score1	Performance Bonus ($)1	Other Bonus ($)1
José R. Fernández	100	%	113.83	1,117,600	—
Maritza Arizmendi	70	%	113.83	381,100	—
Ada García	50	%	127.01	222,400	—
César Ortiz	50	%	118.36	204,300	—
Mari Evelyn Rodríguez	50	%	127.01	241,200	—

1. For purposes of this table, the performance score was rounded to the nearest hundredth and the performance bonus is rounded up to the next hundred dollars. The performance score for Ms. García, Mr. Ortiz, and Ms. Rodríguez reflects the results of their business unit performance goal adjustment but not their individual performance evaluation. No discretionary or special cash bonuses were earned or paid in 2025 to the NEOs.

Long-Term Incentive Compensation Our long-term incentive compensation is designed to ensure that executives have a continuing stake in our success and to encourage executives to focus on performance goals that will enhance the value of our franchise and capital stock. Such incentives are also designed to retain key executives, reward risk management, and link executive performance to the creation of franchise and shareholder value.

NEOs receive 50% of long-term incentive value in the form of performance shares, where vesting is contingent on meeting tangible book value and average return on tangible common equity goals over a three-year performance cycle. The remaining 50% of long-term incentive value is granted in the form of restricted units with a third of the restricted units vesting annually on a three-year vesting schedule. We believe that this framework reflects peer group market practices and that it strengthens the link between executive performance and shareholder value.

The value of the equity awards granted to Mr. Fernández are based on a percentage of his base salary. The value of the equity awards granted to our other NEOs is also based on a percentage of their base salaries, but also takes into account the recommendations of our CEO.

In 2026, the Compensation Committee approved the following equity awards to the NEOs, which include those issued under the Company's regular annual long-term incentive program together with the special performance share awards related to the Board's evaluation of management's execution of the Company's 2022-2025 Strategic Plan (discussed in the 2025 Compensation Highlights).


	Performance Shares		Restricted Units			% of Base Salary		% Target of Base Salary
Name	Target Value ($)	Target Amount	Value ($)	Amount	Total Value ($)
José R. Fernández	1,339,147	32,710	589,127	14,390	1,928,274	196	%	120	%
Maritza Arizmendi	367,641	8,980	167,445	4,090	535,086	97	%	70	%
César Ortiz	288,013	7,035	87,816	2,145	375,829	107	%	50	%
Mari Evelyn Rodríguez	314,419	7,680	114,223	2,790	428,642	104	%	60	%

Half of the performance shares vest based on the achievement of growth in the Company’s tangible book value over a three-year performance cycle ending on December 31, 2028. The other half vest based on the Company’s average return on average tangible common equity over that same period. The Compensation Committee decided to continue its practice from prior years of tying the vesting of the performance shares to two metrics, consistent with market practice among the Company’s peers. When it first determined the appropriate metrics, the Compensation Committee, with the assistance of our independent compensation consultant, evaluated various metrics, such as tangible book value, earnings per share, return on equity, return on assets and total shareholder return. The Compensation Committee selected tangible book value and average return on average tangible common equity. As such, our Compensation Committee determined that these performance metrics were the best to align our executive’s interest with our long-term shareholders. Performance goals were established considering the Company’s three-year strategic plan. The tangible book value ("TBV") of the Company as of December 31, 2025 was $29.96 and the target tangible book value for December 31, 2028 is $37.52. The results of the tangible book value performance metric are adjusted to account for changes to tangible book value caused by distributions to shareholders and other extraordinary events, such as increases or decreases to the regular quarterly common dividend, the adoption and execution of stock repurchase programs, and mergers and acquisitions.

For each of the two metrics, executives will begin receiving 50% of the performance shares as common stock of the Company for reaching the threshold level of achievement for the metric in question and will receive up to 100% for reaching the target level of achievement and up to 150% for reaching the maximum level of achievement. No shares are awarded if the threshold level of achievement is not attained, and shares are awarded based on straight line interpolation if the metric is achieved between the threshold and the target or between the target and the maximum. The threshold, target and maximum level of achievement of the growth in the Company’s tangible book value and average return on tangible common equity established for the performance shares are as follows:


	Threshold	Target	Maximum
TBV as of December 31, 2028	$31.89	$37.52	$43.14
3-Year Average ROATCE	12.10%	14.24%	15.20%

Other Compensation Practices

Stock Ownership Requirements. Pursuant to our Officers and Directors Stock Ownership Policy, we require our NEOs (among other officers) to own a minimum amount of our equity stock (based on the higher of the market or book value of the stock) equal to five times annual base salary in the case of our CEO, Mr. Fernández, three times annual base salary in the case of our other NEOs and certain other executive officers, and two times annual base salary in the case of other key officers. Our executives are required to comply in periods ranging from 2 to 4 years after they receive their first equity award following their appointment.

Insider Trading Policy and Blackout Policy. Our Insider Trading Policy and Blackout Policy regulates the buying, selling, and other dispositions of Company securities by the Company, its executive officers, directors, employees, agents, independent consultants, and contractors. It aims to ensure adherence to insider trading laws, rules, regulations, and applicable NYSE listing standards.

Prohibition on Derivatives Trading, Securities Hedging and Pledging. The policy prohibits the Company and our employees from trading in our securities while in possession of material nonpublic information. Our Insider Trading Policy also prohibits the Company and our employees from trading in any puts, calls, or other derivative products involving Company securities, entering into any transaction to hedge or offset any decrease in the market value of our securities, and from pledging any of our securities. Additionally, it forbids trading during blackout periods and requires trade pre-clearance procedures for executives and directors.

Clawback Policy. Our Compensation Recoupment Policy requires that executive officers who received incentive-based compensation (e.g., bonus, annual incentive or other performance-based cash or equity compensation awards) during the three-year period prior to an accounting restatement of the Company’s financial statements due to a material non-compliance with financial reporting requirements under the applicable securities laws, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period, return to the Company the amount of such compensation that the executive would have otherwise not received but for the misstated financial statements.

Change-in-Control Compensation Agreements. An important objective of our compensation program is not only the recruitment of seasoned executives but also their retention and commitment to our long-term success. Therefore, to promote their retention and reduce any concerns that they may be adversely affected in the event of a change-in-control of the Company, we have entered into a change-in-control compensation agreement with Mr. Fernández pursuant to which he is entitled to a cash payment equal to three times the sum of his annual base salary and last cash bonus if there is a change in control and as a result thereof or within one year thereafter his employment is terminated.

The following table presents the estimated cash compensation under Mr. Fernández's change-in-control compensation agreement based on his salary and bonus for 2025. No such payout has been required to date under such agreement by the Company.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation. We also offer our NEOs and other highly compensated executives a non-qualified deferred compensation plan for the deferral of taxable income and certain allowances. Such allowances are offered on a case-by-case basis and are not intended to constitute a significant portion of the executive’s compensation. This non-qualified deferred compensation plan is more fully described below.

Grant Practices Specific to Stock Options. We do not currently grant stock options as part of our equity compensation programs. During fiscal year 2025, none of our NEOs were awarded stock options with an effective grant date during any period beginning four business days before the filing or furnishing of a Form 10-Q, Form 10-K, or Form 8-K that disclosed material nonpublic information, and ending one business day after the filing or furnishing of such reports.

Fringe Benefits and Allowances. We provide several fringe benefits, including a defined contribution plan and healthcare coverage, to our NEOs on the same terms as they are provided to all of our employees. These benefits do not constitute a significant portion of the NEOs’ total compensation package and are generally available to all of our employees. We provide these benefits to retain and attract an appropriate caliber of talent and recognize that other companies with which we compete for talent provide similar benefits to their officers and employees.

COMPENSATION RISK ASSESSMENT

Our compensation program is a key component of the Company’s overall compliance and pay-for-performance culture. The Board’s Compensation Committee, with the assistance of our internal risk management staff, regularly reviews this program and does not believe that the risks arising from our compensation policies and practices are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

We believe that our approach to setting goals and targets with payouts at multiple levels of performance and the evaluation of annual performance results assist in mitigating excessive risk-taking that could harm our value or reward poor judgment by our executives. Several features of our compensation program reflect sound risk management practices, including our Compensation Recoupment Policy and our Directors and Officers Stock Ownership Policy, which are described above under the heading “Compensation Discussion and Analysis.”

We allocate compensation among base salary and incentive compensation (bonus and equity awards) to target opportunities in such a way as to not encourage excessive risk-taking. Furthermore, although the performance measures that determine bonus and equity awards for certain business unit leaders are based in part on the achievements of their respective business units, the measures that determine payouts for all our executives include company-wide metrics. Such metrics, which are not controlled or overly influenced by the results of any single business unit, are given greater weight in the case of NEOs. This is based on our belief that applying company-wide metrics encourages decision-making that is consistent with our philosophy and that is in the best long-term interests of the Company and its shareholders. Moreover, the mix of equity awards in our incentive program, which includes full value awards such as restricted stock units, and the minimum stock ownership requirements applicable to our top executives also mitigate risk. In addition, the multi-year vesting of our equity awards properly accounts for the time horizon of risk. Finally, each employee’s compliance with our internal policies and procedures, including ethics standards, is an important element of our annual bonus determinations.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis (“CD&A”) and the Compensation Risk Assessment with management and, based on such review and discussion, the Committee recommended that the Compensation Risk Assessment and the CD&A be included in this proxy statement.

CEO Employment Agreement

José Rafael Fernández entered into an amended and restated Employment Agreement with the Company on December 21, 2023, effective on January 1, 2024 (the “2024 Employment Agreement”). Mr. Fernández is our President and Chief Executive Officer and the Chairman of our Board of Directors. The 2024 Employment Agreement ends on December 31, 2026.

As provided in the 2024 Employment Agreement, Mr. Fernández reports directly to our Board of Directors and has overall responsibility for the business and affairs of the Company. During the term of the 2024 Employment Agreement and in any election of directors in which Mr. Fernández’s term as director is set to expire, the Board will nominate and recommend to the shareholders of the Company his election as a Board member.

The 2024 Employment Agreement provides that Mr. Fernández will be compensated as follows: (i) annual base salary of $981,750, which may be increased by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors; (ii) annual target bonus of a percentage, established by the Compensation Committee, of his annual base salary payable on or before March 31 of each year pursuant to the Company’s non-equity incentive bonus plan; (iii) annual expense allowance of $100,000 for his car-related expenses, membership expenses for social, business and professional organizations, and any other expenses which in his judgment are reasonably appropriate for the performance of his duties as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company; (iv) a 10-year term life insurance policy in the amount of $3,000,000 covering his life and having as beneficiaries his spouse and heirs or other beneficiaries designated by him; (v) 25 days of paid vacation per year; (vi) additional incentive compensation under the Company’s equity-based compensation plan up to an annual amount equal to a percentage, established by the Compensation Committee, of his annual base salary, but he may elect to receive the award in deferred cash equivalents if he is in compliance with the Company’s Stock Ownership Policy, and (vii) a one-time special equity award of 40,442 restricted stock units and 40,442 performance shares. It also provides that Mr. Fernández will be entitled to participate in any equity-based compensation plan, profit-sharing plan or other plans, benefits and privileges offered by the Company to its employees and executives to the extent that he is otherwise eligible and qualifies to participate in and receive such benefits or privileges.

The 2024 Employment Agreement provides that it may be terminated by our Board of Directors for “just cause” (as defined therein). In the event of termination for just cause or if Mr. Fernández is removed or barred from office under applicable law, he will have no right to compensation or other benefits for any period after such termination. However, if the 2024 Employment Agreement is terminated by our Board of Directors other than for just cause and other than in connection with a change in control of the Company (as defined in his Change in Control Compensation Agreement with the Company), or if Mr. Fernández terminates the 2024 Employment

Agreement for “good reason” (as defined therein), the Company will be required to pay him as severance, in lieu of

any further compensation for periods subsequent to the date of termination, a lump sum equal to the product of (a) his annual base salary and bonus (equal to the average cash bonus paid to him in the last two fiscal years prior to the termination date), multiplied by (b) three.

Change-in-Control Compensation Agreements

We have entered into a Change-in-Control Compensation Agreement with Mr. Fernández. Such agreement remains in full force as long as Mr. Fernández is employed by us.

Under the agreement, Mr. Fernández is entitled to certain cash payment compensation in the event there is a “change in control of the Company” and as a result thereof or within one year after the change in control, Mr. Fernández's employment is terminated by us or our successor in interest. The cash compensation will be an amount equal to the sum of Mr. Fernández’s annual base salary at the time the termination of his employment occurs and his last cash bonus paid prior to the termination of his employment times three.

For purposes thereof, a change in control is deemed to have occurred if (i) any person or entity (including a group) acquires direct or indirect ownership of 50% or more of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding common stock as a result of a tender or exchange offer, open market purchases, privately negotiated purchases or otherwise; or (ii) the shareholders of the Company approve (a) any consolidation or merger of the Company in which the Company is not the surviving corporation (other than a merger in which the holders of the Company’s common stock immediately prior to the merger have the same or substantially the same proportionate ownership of the surviving corporation immediately after the merger), or (b) any sale, lease, exchange or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) of all, or substantially all, of the Company’s assets to an entity which is not a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

Life Insurance

We provide each of our NEOs with a life insurance policy, which in the event of death would pay his or her heirs or beneficiaries up to a maximum of $700,000 or, if the NEO qualifies, $1,000,000. We also provide our CEO with an additional life insurance policy, which in the event of his death would pay $3 million to his heirs or beneficiaries.

401(k)/1081.01(d) Plan

All the Company’s employees, including the employees of its subsidiaries, are eligible to participate in our cash or deferred arrangement profit sharing plan (the “401(k)/1081.01(d) Plan”). The 401(k)/1081.01(d) Plan is a defined contribution plan under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and is qualified under Sections 1081.01(a) and 1081.01(d) of the Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code of 2011, as amended (the “Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code”). The 401(k)/1081.01(d) Plan offers eligible participants several investment alternatives, including several U.S. mutual funds, a money market account, and shares of common stock of the Company. Contributions made through payroll deductions not in excess of a specified amount may be accumulated per year as before-tax savings. During 2025, the Company contributed 50% of the employee’s contribution up to a maximum employee contribution for matching purposes of 8% of the employee’s salary. The matching contribution is invested in accordance with the employee’s election, which may be shares of common stock of the Company.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation

In 2023, the Compensation Committee approved the establishment of a new non-qualified deferred compensation plan. The plan is not intended to meet the requirements of Section 1081.01 of the Puerto Rico Internal Revenue Code, and therefore, does not meet the funding, employee coverage, and other requirements which 'qualified retirement plans' must satisfy thereunder.

However, the plan is intended to constitute an unfunded arrangement maintained 'primarily for the purposes of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees' for purposes of Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA. Under the plan, the executive’s current taxable income is reduced by the amount being deferred, which could be up to 100% of their salary and bonus. Executives may also defer 100% of any distributions required from their 401(k)/1081.01(d) Plan. The compensation due from the Company to the executive pursuant to the non-qualified plan may increase or decrease in value based on the performance of certain notional investment options selected by the executive. The deferred compensation obligations due to the executive may increase in value without current income tax to the individual. Taxes are due when the funds are withdrawn at the then current income tax rate applicable to the individual, which may be lower than their current income tax bracket.

The following table presents information concerning the deferral of compensation by the Named Executive Officers on a basis that is not tax-qualified.

In 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025, $946,806, $1,128,567, $1,197,314, $1,575,316, and $1,040,578 respectively, were the averages deducted from the Summary Compensation Table Totals, which represent the grant date fair value of the equity awards received in the corresponding fiscal year and the fair value of unvested equity awards and dividends accrued on unvested performance shares as of the end of the immediately preceding fiscal year; and $1,507,653, $1,226,607, $2,246,340, $1,799,994, and $1,113,510 respectively, were the averages added, which represent the fair value as of the vesting date of awards that vest during the corresponding fiscal year and the fair value of all unvested equity awards and dividends accrued on unvested performance shares as of the end of the corresponding fiscal year .

The following graph presents the relationship between executive compensation actually paid by the Company to our CEO and the average compensation actually paid to the NEOs other than our CEO and the of the Company’s cumulative total shareholder return over the past five years. It also compares our Company’s cumulative total shareholder return with that of our peer group over the same period.

The following graph presents the relationship between compensation actually paid by the Company to our CEO and the average compensation actually paid to the NEOs other than our CEO and the Company’s net income over the past five years.

The most important financial performance metrics used by the Company in our most recent fiscal year to link our NEOs compensation to our Company’s performance are earnings per share, tangible book value, average return on average tangible common equity, market share operating income, and efficiency ratio.

Director Compensation

Each director’s compensation is generally designed to be competitive with comparable compensation paid to directors at peer group companies in Puerto Rico and the U.S. However, each director’s actual compensation varies based on whether he or she is a Chairperson of our Board of Directors or any of its committees. It also varies depending on the number of meetings attended and on his or her membership in Board committees.

The following table presents information concerning the compensation of our directors for 2025.

PROPOSAL 3: RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee of our Board of Directors has selected KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2026 and has further directed that the selection of such firm be submitted for ratification by the shareholders at this annual meeting. KPMG has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since 2005. Neither our articles of incorporation nor our by-laws require that our shareholders ratify the selection of such firm. If our shareholders do not ratify the selection, the Audit Committee will reconsider whether or not to retain KPMG, but may nonetheless retain it. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee, in their discretion, may change the appointment at any time during the year if they determine that such change would be in our best interest.

Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote “FOR” this proposal.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR

The Audit Committee reviewed and approved all audit and non-audit services rendered by KPMG to the Company and its subsidiaries and concluded that the provision of such services was compatible with the maintenance of KPMG’s independence in the conduct of its auditing functions.

As defined by the SEC, (i) “audit fees” are fees for professional services rendered by our principal accountant for the audit of our annual financial statements, including the audit of our internal control over financial reporting, and review of financial statements included on our Forms 10-Q, or for services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those years; (ii) “audit-related fees” are fees for assurance and related services by our principal accountant that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements; (iii) “tax fees” are fees for professional services rendered by our principal accountant for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning; and (iv) “all other fees” are fees for products and services provided by our principal accountant, other than the services reported under “audit fees,” “audit-related fees,” and “tax fees.”

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

The Audit Committee assists the Board of Directors in its oversight of the financial reporting process of OFG Bancorp (the “Company”) and meets regularly with the Company’s internal and external auditors, CEO and CFO. The Audit Committee’s responsibilities are more fully described in its charter, a copy of which is available on the Company’s website at www.ofgbancorp.com.

Management has the primary responsibility for the preparation and integrity of the Company’s financial statements, accounting and financial reporting principles, and internal controls and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an independent audit of the consolidated financial statements and expressing an opinion on the conformity of those financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for the period ended December 31, 2025 with the Company’s management and has discussed with KPMG LLP (“KPMG”) the matters that are required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. 1.

In addition, KPMG has provided the Audit Committee with the written disclosures and the letter required by the Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board in Rule 3600T, and the Audit Committee has discussed with KPMG their independence.

The members of the Audit Committee are not engaged professionally in rendering, auditing or accounting services on behalf of the Company nor are they Company employees. The Company’s management is responsible for its accounting, financial management and internal controls. As such, it is not the duty or responsibility of the Audit Committee or its members to conduct “field work” or other types of auditing or accounting reviews or procedures.

Based on such reviews and discussions, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

INDEBTEDNESS OF MANAGEMENT

Certain transactions involving loans were transacted in 2025 between the Company’s banking subsidiary, Oriental Bank, some of our directors and executive officers, including those of our other subsidiaries, and persons related to or affiliated with such persons. All such transactions were made in the ordinary course of business on substantially the same terms, including interest rates, collateral and repayment terms, as those prevailing at the time for comparable transactions with persons not related to the lender, and did not involve more than the normal risk of collectability or present other unfavorable features. At present, none of the loans to such directors and executive officers, including persons related to or affiliated with such persons, is non-performing.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Our Board of Directors recognizes that certain transactions present a heightened risk of conflicts of interest and/or improper valuation (or the perception thereof) and, therefore, has adopted a Related Party Transactions Policy (the “Policy”). For these purposes, a “Related Party Transaction” is defined as a transaction or series of similar transactions in which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is to be a participant and the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and in which any Related Party has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. A “Related Party” is any of our directors or executive officers, any nominee for director, any beneficial owner of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities, and any immediate family member of any of the previously mentioned. The Policy generally covers any financial transaction, arrangement or relationship (including any indebtedness or guarantee of indebtedness) or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships between the Related Party and the Company. Related Party Transactions thereunder are approved or ratified by the Risk and Compliance Committee or the disinterested members of our Board of Directors (other than employment or compensation arrangements, which are approved by the Compensation Committee or the disinterested members of our Board of Directors). Furthermore, the Risk and Compliance Committee may approve or ratify a Related Party Transaction if (i) it finds that there is a compelling business reason to approve the transaction, taking into account all pertinent factors, (ii) it has been fully informed of any and all significant conflicts that may exist or otherwise arise on account of the transaction, and (iii) it reasonably believes that the transaction is beneficial for the Company and that it has adopted appropriate measures to manage the potential conflicts of interest. All Related Party Transactions approved or ratified by the Risk and Compliance Committee must be disclosed to our Board of Directors at its next regularly scheduled meeting.

Delgado & Fernández, LLP, San Juan, Puerto Rico, has continuously provided legal and notarial services to the Company since 1997 in the areas of mortgage lending, mortgage foreclosures and debt recovery, general legal advice, and commercial and labor litigation and arbitration. The brother of José Rafael Fernández, our President and CEO, is the principal partner at that firm. The Company engaged Delgado & Fernández before Mr. Fernández became our President and CEO and a member of our Board of Directors. During 2025, the Company paid such firm a total of $1,235,564 for legal services rendered to us and $672,403 for notarial services in connection with loan closings paid for by clients of the Company.

The engagement of Delgado & Fernández, LLP was approved by our Board of Directors.

SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE,

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, executive officers and persons who own more than 10% of our equity securities to timely file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our common stock and other equity securities. We are required to identify any such director, executive officer or greater than 10% stockholder who failed to timely file any such report. Based solely on the review of copies of such reports and other information furnished to the Company by such individuals, we believe that during and with respect to 2025 such persons timely filed all required reports, except for Maritza Arizmendi, who filed a late Form 4.

The bylaws require that ballots bearing the names of all persons nominated by the Board of Directors and by shareholders be provided for use at the annual meeting.
