For the year ended June 30, 2026 net income was $490.4 million, an increase of $57.5 million from net income of $432.9 million for the year ended June 30, 2025. Diluted EPS was $8.48 for the year ended June 30, 2026, an increase of $1.05, or 14.1%, as compared to diluted EPS of $7.43 for the year ended June 30, 2025. For the year ended June 30, 2026 adjusted earnings (a non-GAAP financial measure) increased $69.1 million, and Adjusted EPS (a non-GAAP financial measure) increased $1.24.
“We ended our fiscal 2026 with solid results. Double digit year-over-year increases in net interest income and non-interest income resulted in a 12.5% and 17.6% increase in our diluted earnings per share and book value per share, respectively,” stated Greg Garrabrants, President and Chief Executive Officer of Axos. “Our net interest margin remains best-in-class, fueled by solid loan growth across consumer and commercial lending categories. We closed the Jenius Bank acquisition in May, adding approximately $2.3 billion of deposits.”
“We continue to manage our non-interest expenses while investing in our businesses, technologies and people,” said Derrick Walsh, Chief Financial Officer of Axos. “Excluding a $21.0 million accrual related to a legal matter in Axos Clearing, our non-interest expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2026 were down by approximately $1.0 million compared to the prior quarter. We remain well reserved relative to our low level of credit losses, as reflected in our allowance for credit losses to total non-accrual loans of 221% at June 30, 2026. Excluding a $10.0 million net charge-off of a C&I cash flow loan we previously reserved for, our annualized net charge-offs to average loans would have been 0.09%, improved from the year ago quarter.”
Other Highlights
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2026 Income Statement Summary
Net income was $124.9 million and diluted EPS was $2.16 for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to net income of $110.7 million and diluted EPS of $1.92 for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Net interest income increased $37.7 million, or 13.5%, for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to an increase in interest income earned on loans, partially offset by a decrease on interest income on deposits in other financial institutions and increases in interest expense on advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank and on secured financings.
The provision for credit losses was $17.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $15.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The provision for credit losses for the three months ended June 30, 2026, was primarily driven by loan growth and an increase in specific reserves on individually assessed loans, partially offset by an improved macroeconomic outlook reflected in the forecast scenarios used in the allowance for credit losses model.
Non-interest income increased to $61.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $41.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to operating lease rental and other income from the acquisition of Verdant Commercial Capital, LLC (“Verdant”) and higher prepayment penalty income, partially offset by the absence of a $12.0 million gain recognized on a loan sale in the prior year quarter.
Non-interest expense, comprised of various operating expenses, increased $55.3 million to $205.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, from $150.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. The increase was primarily due to a $21.0 million accrual related to a FINRA arbitration matter in the three months ended June 30, 2026, increased depreciation and amortization expense, mainly attributable to the Verdant and deposit acquisitions, and an increase in salaries and related costs.
Balance Sheet Summary
Axos’ total assets increased by $5.2 billion, or 20.9%, to $30.0 billion, at June 30, 2026, from $24.8 billion at June 30, 2025, primarily attributable to an increase in loans and securities available-for-sale, partially offset by lower cash and cash equivalents. Total liabilities increased by $4.7 billion, or 21.2%, to $26.8 billion at June 30, 2026, from $22.1 billion at June 30, 2025, primarily attributable to higher deposit balances, as well as secured financings assumed as part of the Verdant acquisition. Stockholders’ equity increased $485.7 million, or 18.1%, to $3.2 billion at June 30, 2026, from $2.7 billion at June 30, 2025, primarily due to net income of $490.4 million.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to the results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), this release includes non-GAAP financial measures such as adjusted earnings, adjusted earnings per diluted common share, and tangible book value per common share. Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not audited. Readers should be aware of these limitations and should be cautious as to their reliance on such measures. Although we believe the non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this release enhance investors’ understanding of our business and performance, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for GAAP basis financial measures.
We define “adjusted earnings”, a non-GAAP financial measure, as net income without the after-tax impact of non-recurring acquisition-related items (including amortization of intangible assets related to acquisitions) and other costs (unusual or non-recurring charges). Adjusted EPS, a non-GAAP financial measure, is calculated by dividing non-GAAP adjusted earnings by the average number of diluted common shares outstanding during the period. We believe the non-GAAP measures of adjusted earnings and adjusted EPS provide useful information about Axos’ operating performance. We believe excluding the non-recurring acquisition-related costs and other costs provides investors with an alternative understanding of Axos’ core business.
Below is a reconciliation of net income, the nearest comparable GAAP measure, to adjusted earnings and adjusted EPS (Non-GAAP) for the periods shown:

1 Favorable legal settlement reflects the recognition of a legal settlement in the Company’s favor reached in March 2026.
2 Acquisition-related costs includes amortization of intangible assets, and for the year ended June 30, 2026, also includes $1.3 million of acquisition-related costs associated with the Verdant acquisition.
3 Other costs primarily reflects the payment of a legal judgment at an amount less than previously accrued.
We define “tangible book value”, a non-GAAP financial measure, as book value adjusted for goodwill and other intangible assets. Tangible book value is calculated using common stockholders’ equity minus servicing rights, goodwill and other intangible assets. Tangible book value per common share is calculated by dividing tangible book value by the common shares outstanding at the end of the period. We believe tangible book value per common share is useful in evaluating the Company’s capital strength, financial condition, and ability to manage potential losses.
