TriCo Bancshares Reports Second Quarter 2026 Net Income of $34.2 Million, Diluted EPS of $1.06 Following Merger Announcement
CHICO, Calif.--( BUSINESS WIRE)--TriCo Bancshares (NASDAQ: TCBK):
This continued growth, combined with the synergies we expect to develop over time with FHB...will further expand our capacity and resources available to serve California communities.
“Our second quarter results are highlighted by robust loan growth across our markets, reflecting the continued trust that customers and communities place in Tri Counties Bank. This continued growth, combined with the synergies we expect to develop over time with First Hawaiian Bank, further supports the merits and thesis of our recent merger announcement. In addition to the obvious size and scale that will be created, our capacity and resources to serve California communities will continue to expand following the union of TCBK and FHB,” said Rick Smith, Chairman and CEO.
Peter Wiese, EVP and CFO, added, “Growth in loans and earning assets, continued repricing of loans and investment securities, and disciplined balance sheet management all contributed to the expansion of net interest income and margin. Despite the slight increase in our efficiency ratio, after adjusting for merger-related expenses and elevated incentive compensation related to loan growth and overall bank performance, expense control also remains disciplined. While capital deployment remains top of mind for management, we expect that share repurchase activities, if any, will be limited given the merger announcement.”

Balance Sheet Data
Total loans outstanding were $7.3 billion as of June 30, 2026, an increase of $352.1 million or 5.1% over June 30, 2025, and an increase of $242.9 million or 13.7% annualized as compared to the trailing quarter ended March 31, 2026. Investments decreased by $74.8 million and decreased $140.6 million for the three- and twelve-month periods ended June 30, 2026, respectively, and ended the quarter with a balance of $1.80 billion or 18.1% of total assets. Quarterly average earning assets to quarterly total average assets was 91.9% on June 30, 2026, compared to 91.8% on June 30, 2025. The loan-to-deposit ratio was 87.4% on June 30, 2026, as compared to 83.1% on June 30, 2025. The Company did not utilize brokered deposits during 2026 or 2025 and continues to rely on organic deposit customers to fund cash flow timing differences.
Total shareholders' equity increased by $19.6 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, as net income of $34.2 million was partially offset by a $2.5 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive losses and $11.5 million in cash dividends on common stock. As a result, the Company’s book value increased to $42.03 per share at June 30, 2026, compared to $41.49 at March 31, 2026. The Company’s tangible book value per share, a non-GAAP measure, calculated by subtracting goodwill and other intangible assets from total shareholders’ equity and dividing that sum by total shares outstanding, was $32.40 per share at June 30, 2026, as compared to $31.82 at March 31, 2026.

Loans outstanding increased by $242.9 million or 13.7% on an annualized basis during the quarter ended June 30, 2026. During the quarter, gross loan originations/draws totaled approximately $632.9 million while gross payoffs/repayments of loans totaled $412.8 million, which compares to gross originations/draws and gross payoffs/repayments during the trailing quarter ended of $388.7 million and $442.2 million, respectively. Origination volume was elevated relative to historical norms, while repayments were in line with recent periods. Domestically, the macro-economic outlook remains optimistic for borrowers following the passage of tax and spending legislation that is expected to promote continued economic expansion through the remainder of 2026.
Investment security balances decreased $74.8 million or 16.0% on an annualized basis during the quarter as a result of prepayments / maturities of $113.1 million and net decreases in the market value of securities of $3.6 million, partially offset by purchases totaling $42.1 million. Investment security purchases were comprised of fixed rate agency mortgage-backed securities and collateralized loan obligations. While management intends to primarily utilize cash flows from the investment security portfolio and organic deposit growth to support loan growth, excess liquidity will be utilized for purchases of investment securities to support net interest income growth and net interest margin expansion.
Deposit balances decreased by $34.8 million or 1.7% annualized during the period, inclusive of $68.8 million in one-way sell activity at June 30, 2026, as a short-term method to reduce the Company's overall balance sheet size. There were no deposits sold in the trailing quarter or the same quarter of the prior year.

Fully taxable equivalent (FTE). All yields and rates are calculated using specific day counts for the period and year as applicable.
(2)
Net interest spread is the average yield earned on interest-earning assets minus the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities.
(3)
Net interest margin is computed by calculating the difference between interest income and interest expense, divided by the average balance of interest-earning assets.
Net interest income (FTE) during the three months ended June 30, 2026, increased $2.4 million or 2.6% to $93.9 million compared to $91.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026. Net interest margin totaled 4.11% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, an increase of 4 basis points from the trailing quarter. The increase in net interest income is primarily attributed to a $3.2 million increase in interest income on earnings assets, led by $4.2 million attributed to lending income. Interest expense increased from deposit costs of $0.7 million as compared to the trailing quarter. The average balance of noninterest-bearing deposits increased by $28.1 million from the three-month average for the period ended March 31, 2026.
As compared to the same quarter in the prior year, average loan yields increased 9 basis points from 5.76% during the three months ended June 30, 2025, to 5.85% during the three months ended June 30, 2026. The accretion of discounts from acquired loans added 6 basis points to loan yields during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, as compared to adding 8 basis points for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. The cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased by 14 basis points between the quarter ended June 30, 2026, and the same quarter of the prior year. The average balance of noninterest-bearing deposits increased by $63.0 million from the three-month average for the period ended June 30, 2025.
For the quarter ended June 30, 2026, the ratio of average total noninterest-bearing deposits to total average deposits was 30.7%, as compared to 30.6% and 30.6% for the quarters ended March 31, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively.

The ACL was $130.2 million or 1.78% of total loans as of June 30, 2026. The provision for credit losses on loans of $2.6 million recorded allocated approximately $2.3 million toward collectively evaluated loans and $0.3 million to replenish quarterly net charge-offs.
The $2.2 million increase in allowance for credit losses was primarily attributed to net loan growth during the quarter, which totaled $242.9 million. Additionally, Management notes that economic indicators through the end of the current quarter, as well as actual and forecasted trends including, but not limited to, unemployment, gross domestic product, and corporate borrowing rates, continued to evidence stability and were supportive of general economic expansion, and were consistent with, if not slightly improved from the period ended March 31, 2026, which is aligned with the Company's direct experiences with borrowers. Management's proactive portfolio management policies and ongoing dialogue with borrowers suggest caution continues to be warranted, with emphasis on the consumer portfolio. Actions by the Federal Reserve during 2026 or stimulative policies by the Federal government may impact this outlook overall, but the uncertainty associated with the extent and timing of these potential reductions has inhibited a material change to monetary policy assumptions. Furthermore, political policy risks both domestic and international remain unresolved, which could quickly lead to further negative effects on domestic economic outcomes. The lingering uncertainties related to the extent and duration of escalation within the Middle East, and potential domestic economic impact from volatility in oil prices and the impact on inflation risks, continue to present challenges in correlating potential improvement of credit risks within the Company's loan portfolio. Therefore, management continues to believe that certain credit weaknesses are present in the overall economy and that it is appropriate to maintain a reserve level that incorporates such risk factors.
While the required reserves on individually evaluated credits remained flat as compared to the trailing quarter, the Company continues to work closely with these largely cooperative borrowers and is diligently monitoring for any further changes in financial conditions. Management believes the provisioning for these individually analyzed relationships is sufficient relative to expected future losses, if any. The net charge-offs incurred during the quarter were spread amongst numerous borrowers and loan types.

The ratio of classified loans to total loans of 1.93% as of June 30, 2026, was a decrease of 7 basis points from March 31, 2026, and 1 basis point from the comparative quarter ended 2025. The change in classified loans outstanding as compared to the trailing quarter represented a decrease of approximately $0.5 million.
Loans past due 30 days or more increased by $0.7 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, to $49.6 million, as compared to $48.9 million at March 31, 2026. The majority of loans identified as past due are well-secured by collateral, and approximately $27.5 million are less than 90 days delinquent.
Non-performing loans decreased by $0.6 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, to $68.8 million as compared to $69.5 million at March 31, 2026. The credit and collateral profiles of non-performing loans remain generally consistent with the trailing quarter. As noted previously, management continues to proactively work with these borrowers to identify actionable and appropriate resolution strategies which are customary for the industries. Management anticipates that these proactive strategies, specifically within agricultural real estate secured and agricultural commercial loans, will further benefit from the continued improvement in agricultural commodity prices, stable water supply, and growing crop demand. Of the $68.8 million loans designated as non-performing as of June 30, 2026, approximately $43.9 million are current or less than 30 days past due with respect to payments required under their existing loan agreements.
Management continues to proactively assess the repayment capacity of borrowers that will be subject to rate resets in the near term. To date this analysis as well as management's observations of loans that have experienced a rate reset, have resulted in an insignificant need to provide concessions to borrowers.
As of June 30, 2026, other real estate owned consisted of 14 properties with a carrying value of approximately $6.8 million, as compared to 14 properties with a carrying value of $7.0 million at March 31, 2026. Non-performing assets of $75.6 million at June 30, 2026, represented 0.76% of total assets, a change from $76.4 million or 0.77% and $67.5 million or 0.68% as of March 31, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively.

In addition to the allowance for credit losses above, the Company has acquired various performing loans whose fair value as of the acquisition date was determined to be less than the principal balance owed on those loans. This difference represents the collective discount of credit, interest rate and liquidity measurements, which are expected to be amortized over the life of the loans. As of June 30, 2026, the unamortized discount associated with acquired loans totaled $12.6 million, which, when combined with the total allowance for credit losses above, represents 2.06% of total loans.

Total non-interest expense increased $1.8 million or 2.9% to $62.9 million during the three months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to $61.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Total salaries and benefits expense increased by $0.7 million or 1.8% on a net basis, led by incentive compensation attributed to the elevated loan origination activity. Excluding the aforementioned merger expenses, changes in other non-interest expense line items were mixed during the quarter ended June 30, 2026, but essentially flat and due to timing differences rather than unique changes in operations.

Non-interest expense increased $1.3 million or 1.0% to $122.0 million during the six months ended June 30, 2026, as compared to $120.7 million for the trailing six months ended. Excluding the aforementioned merger expenses, changes in other non-interest expense line items were mixed during the six months period ended June 30, 2026, but essentially flat and due to timing differences rather than unique changes in operations.
Provision for Income Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rate was 26.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, as compared to 26.6% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, and 27.2% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Differences between the Company's effective tax rate and applicable federal and state blended statutory rate of approximately 29.6% are due to the proportion of non-taxable revenues, non-deductible expenses, and benefits from tax credits as compared to the levels of pre-tax earnings.

Non-GAAP measure
TriCo Bancshares—Non-GAAP Financial Measures (unaudited)
In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management has presented these non-GAAP financial measures in this press release because it believes that they provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in the Company's core operations reflected in the current quarter's results and facilitate the comparison of our performance with the performance of our peers. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for any analysis based on GAAP. Where applicable, comparable earnings information using GAAP financial measures is also presented. Because not all companies use the same calculations, our presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures as calculated by other companies. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures, see the tables below:

Forward-Looking Statements
The statements contained herein that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements based on current expectations and beliefs of the Company ("TriCo") and First Hawaiian, Inc. and its subsidiaries (including First Hawaiian Bank) ("FHI") concerning future developments and their potential effects on TriCo and FHI. Such statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and are generally beyond the control of TriCo and FHI. TriCo and FHI caution readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: changes in general economic, political, or industry conditions, and in conditions impacting the banking industry specifically; uncertainty in U.S. fiscal, monetary and trade policy, including the interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve Board or the effects of any declines in housing and commercial real estate prices, high or increasing unemployment rates, continued or renewed inflation, the impact of proposed or imposed tariffs by the U.S. government or retaliatory tariffs proposed or imposed by U.S. trading partners that could have an adverse impact on customers or any recession or slowdown in economic growth particularly in the markets in which TriCo and FHI conduct business, including California, Hawaii, Guam and Saipan; volatility and disruptions in global capital and credit markets; the impact of bank failures or adverse developments at other banks on general investor sentiment regarding the stability and liquidity of banks; changes in interest rates that could significantly reduce net interest income and negatively affect asset yields and valuations and funding sources, including impacts on prepayment speeds; competitive pressures among financial institutions and nontraditional providers of financial services, including on product pricing and services; concentrations within TriCo's or FHI’s loan portfolio (including commercial real estate loans) or other asset classes, and the parties’ ability to attract and retain customer deposits, large loans to certain borrowers, access liquidity and capital, and manage deposit costs and funding sources; the success, impact, and timing of TriCo's and FHI’s respective business strategies, including market acceptance of any new products or services and TriCo's and FHI’s ability to successfully implement strategic, operational, technology and integration initiatives; the failure to properly use and protect customer and employee information and data; cybersecurity risks (such as TriCo's 2023 cyber security ransomware incident), including the occurrence of fraudulent activity or a material breach of, or disruption to, the security of FHI’s, TriCo’s or their vendors’ systems; risks related to the development, implementation, use and management of artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies; the effects of failures or interruptions of information, communications or third-party service-provider systems; the nature, extent, timing, and results of governmental actions, examinations, reviews, reforms, regulations, and interpretations; changes in laws or regulations; adverse weather conditions, natural disasters and other catastrophic events such as wildfires; the challenges of attracting, integrating and retaining key employees, especially while the merger of TriCo with FHI (the "Transaction") is pending; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the right of one or both of the parties to terminate the merger agreement to which TriCo and FHI are parties; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against TriCo or FHI, including potential litigation relating to the Transaction; delays in completing the Transaction; the failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals (and the risk that such approvals may result in the imposition of conditions that could adversely affect the combined company or the expected benefits of the Transaction); the failure to obtain stockholder or shareholder approvals, as applicable, or to satisfy any of the other conditions to the closing of the Transaction on a timely basis or at all; changes in TriCo's or FHI’s share price before closing, including as a result of the financial performance of the other party prior to closing, or more generally due to broader stock market movements, and the performance of financial companies and peer group companies; the possibility that the anticipated benefits of the Transaction are not realized when expected or at all, including as a result of the impact of, or problems arising from, the integration of the two companies or as a result of the strength of the economy and competitive factors in the areas where TriCo and FHI do business; certain restrictions during the pendency of the proposed Transaction that may impact the parties’ ability to pursue certain business opportunities or strategic transactions; the possibility that the Transaction may be more expensive to complete than anticipated, including as a result of unexpected factors or events; diversion of management’s attention from ongoing business operations and opportunities; potential adverse reactions or changes to business or employee relationships, including those resulting from the announcement or completion of the Transaction; the ability to complete the Transaction and integration of TriCo and FHI promptly and successfully; the dilution caused by FHI’s issuance of additional shares of its capital stock in connection with the Transaction; potential judgments, orders, settlements, penalties, fines and reputational damage resulting from pending or future litigation and regulatory investigations, proceedings and enforcement actions; each company's ability to manage the risks involved in the foregoing; and other factors that may affect the future results of TriCo and FHI. The foregoing factors should not be considered an exhaustive list and should be read together with the other cautionary statements set forth in TriCo’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and its latest Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and available on TriCo’s website, in the “Investor Relations” section of TriCo's website, www.tcbk.com, under the “About” tab and the “Investor Relations” link and then under the heading “SEC Filings” and in other documents TriCo files with the SEC, and in FHI’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and its latest Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which are on file with the SEC and available on FHI’s investor relations website, https://ir.fhb.com, under the heading “SEC Filings,” and in other documents FHI files with the SEC. If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from what we anticipate. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Annualized, pro forma, projections and estimates are not forecasts and may not reflect actual results. Neither TriCo nor FHI undertakes any obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by applicable law.
