Provident Financial Services, Inc. Reports Second Quarter Earnings

ISELIN, NJ, July 29, 2026 - Provident Financial Services, Inc. (NYSE:PFS) (the “Company”) reported net income of $78.1 million, or $0.60 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $79.4 million, or $0.61 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and $72.0 million, or $0.55 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2025. For the six months ended June 30, 2026, net income totaled $157.6 million, or $1.21 per basic and diluted share, compared to $136.0 million, or $1.04 per basic and diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2025. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2026, core net income (1), which has been adjusted for one-time core system conversion and executive severance expenses, totaled $79.9 million, or $0.61 per basic and diluted share and $159.3 million, or $1.22 per basic and diluted share, respectively.

Core pre-provision, net revenue ("PPNR") (2) for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was $117.8 million, or $0.90 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to $99.6 million, or $0.76 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Increases in both net income and core PPNR were driven primarily by expanding net interest income and higher non-interest income, including higher wealth management and insurance agency income.

Anthony J. Labozzetta, President and Chief Executive Officer commented, “Through the first half of 2026, Provident has grown earnings per share 17% year-over-year while also significantly improving our profitability and building capital. We achieved record pre-provision net revenue during the second quarter, driven by strong commercial loan production, expanding core margin and increasing contribution from non-interest income, which represented nearly 14% of total revenues. We are proud of the noticeable momentum of our organization, and I’m optimistic that we will continue to drive organic growth with an unchanged commitment to achieving top quartile risk-adjusted returns."

Key Points for the Second Quarter

•Expanding Core Profitability with Record Revenue

◦Annualized core return on average assets ("ROAA") (3) and net interest margin improved to 1.27% and 3.48%, respectively, from 1.19% and 3.36% in the prior year quarter. A reconciliation between GAAP and the above non-GAAP ratios is shown on page 2 of the earnings release.

◦Record net-interest income increased $15.6 million to $202.7 million when compared to the prior year quarter, driven primarily by growth in our earning assets and an expanded net interest margin.

Results of Operations

Second quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2026:

Net interest income

◦Net interest income was $202.7 million, compared to $193.7 million. The increase was primarily due to originations of new loans at current market rates and the favorable repricing of adjustable rate loans.

◦Net interest margin was 3.48%, compared to 3.40%. The yield on interest-earning assets increased 8 basis points to 5.61%, while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities remained at 2.71%. The cost of total deposits, which includes non-interest bearing deposits, was 1.92%, compared to 1.94%.

◦Average loans totaled $19.57 billion, an increase of $214.7 million, or 4.44%, primarily due to strong commercial loan growth in the quarter.

◦Average total deposits totaled $19.23 billion compared to $19.24 billion.

Provision for credit losses

◦The provision for credit losses was $9.3 million, compared to a $2.1 million recapture of previous provisions for credit losses in the prior quarter. The provision for credit losses in the second quarter consisted of a $9.6 million provision related to loans, partially offset by a $0.2 million recapture of provision related to off-balance sheet credit exposures, compared with a $4.7 million recapture of provision for credit losses on loans, partially offset by a $2.5 million provision related to off-balance sheet credit exposures for the prior quarter. The increase in the provision for credit losses was primarily due to overall growth in the loan portfolio, combined with an increase in specific reserves on individually evaluated loans.

◦Net charge-offs were $1.9 million, compared to $3.1 million in the prior quarter, while the ratio of net charge-offs to average loans was 0.04%, compared to 0.06% in the prior quarter.

Non-interest income and non-interest expense

◦Total non-interest income was $32.0 million, compared to $31.5 million, an increase of $0.5 million. The increase was primarily driven by a $1.8 million increase in fee income, partially offset by a $1.4 million decrease in insurance agency income. The increase in fee income was primarily related to increases in loan related fee income and deposit fee income. The decrease in insurance agency income was mainly due to the receipt of contingent commissions in the prior quarter.

◦Total non-interest expense was $119.3 million, compared to $117.1 million, an increase of $2.1 million. The increase was mainly due to $1.5 million related to costs associated with our ongoing core system conversion, combined with an increase in severance expense.

◦The Company’s annualized core non-interest expense as a percentage of average assets(6) totaled 1.85% for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to 1.90% for the trailing quarter. The core efficiency ratio (core non-interest expense divided by the sum of net interest income and core non-interest income)(7) was 49.75% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 52.02% for the trailing quarter.

Income tax expense

Income tax expense was $27.9 million, compared to $30.8 million, and the effective tax rate was 26.3%, compared to 27.9%. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily related to a decrease in pre-tax book income, combined with discrete items related to benefits associated with carry-back tax credits, partially offset by the effects of recent legislation adopted by New Jersey with regard to net operating loss usage. The effective tax rate change was primarily related to the aforementioned discrete items.

Second quarter of 2026 compared to the second quarter of 2025:

Net interest income

◦Net interest income was $202.7 million, compared to $187.1 million. The increase was primarily due to originations of new loans at current market rates, combined with favorable repricing of deposits.

◦Net interest margin was 3.48%, compared to 3.36%. The yield on interest-earning assets decreased seven basis points to 5.61%, while the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 23 basis points to

7

2.71%. The cost of total deposits, which includes non-interest bearing deposits, was 1.92%, compared to 2.10%.

◦Average loans totaled $19.57 billion, an increase of $742.0 million, or 3.94%, primarily due to strong loan growth in the quarter.

◦Average total deposits totaled $19.23 billion, an increase of $807.8 million, or 4.39%.

Provision for credit losses

◦The provision for credit losses was $9.3 million, compared to a $2.9 million recapture of previous provisions for credit losses for the same period last year. The provision for credit losses in the second quarter consisted of a $9.6 million provision related to loans, partially offset by a $0.2 million recapture of provision related to off-balance sheet credit exposures, compared with a $2.7 million and a $0.2 million recapture of provision for credit losses on loans and off-balance sheet credit exposures for the same period last year. The increase in the provision for credit losses was primarily due to overall growth in the loan portfolio, combined with an increase in specific reserves on individually evaluated loans.

◦Net charge-offs were $1.9 million, compared to $1.2 million a year ago, while the ratio of net charge-offs to average loans was 0.04%, compared to 0.03% a year ago.

Non-interest income and non-interest expense

◦Total non-interest income was $32.0 million, compared to $27.1 million, an increase of $4.9 million. The increase was primarily driven by a $1.5 million increase in fee income, a $1.2 million increase in BOLI income and a $1.1 million increase in other non-interest income. The increase in fee income was primarily related to an increase in loan related fee income. The increase in BOLI income was primarily related to an increase in benefit claims, while the increase in other non-interest income was mainly due to an increase in swap fee income.

◦Total non-interest expense was $119.3 million, compared to $114.6 million, an increase of $4.6 million. The increase was primarily driven by a $4.0 million increase in compensation and benefits expense, partially due to an increase in severance expense, and $1.5 million related to costs associated with our ongoing core system conversion, partially offset by a $0.9 million decrease in amortization of intangibles primarily due to a scheduled reduction in the rate of core deposit intangible amortization related to the merger with Lakeland.

◦The Company’s annualized core non-interest expense as a percentage of average assets(6) totaled 1.85% for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, compared to 1.89% for the same period last year. The core efficiency ratio (core non-interest expense divided by the sum of net interest income and core non-interest income)(7) was 49.75% for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to 53.52% for the same period last year.

Income tax expense

◦Income tax expense was $27.9 million, compared to $30.5 million, and the effective tax rate was 26.3%, compared to 29.7%. The decrease in income tax expense and the effective tax rate was primarily related to discrete items related to benefits associated with carry-back tax credits and purchases of current year tax credits, partially offset by effects of recently adopted New Jersey legislation with regard to net operating loss usage.

Notes and Reconciliation of GAAP and Non-GAAP Financial Measures

(Dollars in Thousands, except share data)

The Company has presented the following non-GAAP (U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) financial measures because it believes that these measures provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in the Company’s results of operations and financial condition. Presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is consistent with how the Company evaluates its performance internally and these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the Company’s industry. Investors should recognize that the Company’s presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures might not be comparable to similarly-titled measures of other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures and the Company strongly encourages a review of its condensed consolidated financial statements in their entirety.
