Axos Achieves Net Loan Growth of $1.6 billion Fueled by Verdant Acquisition LAS VEGAS, October 30, 2025 --( BUSINESS WIRE )--Axos Financial, Inc. (NYSE: AX) ("Axos" or the "Company") today announced unaudited financial results for the first fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025. Net income was $112.4 million and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") was $1.94 for the quarter ended September 30, 2025. Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 was $112.3 million and diluted EPS was $1.93. Excluding the $17 million interest income benefit from the prepayment of three FDIC-purchased loans in the three months ended September 30, 2024, net interest income and diluted EPS for the three months ended September 30, 2025 increased by $16 million and $0.22 per share, respectively, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024, representing year-over-year growth of 12% and 12.7%, respectively. First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Financial Summary "Net interest income increased 15.5% linked quarter annualized due to strong organic loan growth," stated Greg Garrabrants, President and Chief Executive Officer of Axos. "Excluding the Verdant equipment leasing acquisition, net loans increased by approximately $565 million this quarter. Our credit remains strong, with net charge-offs to average loans decreasing by five basis points linked-quarter and six basis points versus a year ago to 11 basis points in the quarter ended September 30, 2025." "Loan loss provision was approximately $17.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2025, including $7.8 million related to the Verdant acquisition, compared to $15.0 million in the prior quarter," said Derrick Walsh, Chief Financial Officer of Axos. "Our allowance for credit losses to non-accrual loans and leases was 180.4% at September 30, 2025, up from 149.3% at September 30, 2024." Other Highlights First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Income Statement Summary Net income was $112.4 million and diluted EPS was $1.94 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to net income of $112.3 million and diluted EPS of $1.93 for the three months ended September 30, 2024. Net interest income decreased $1.0 million or 0.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024, primarily due to a decrease in interest income on deposits in other financial institutions and lower interest income earned on loans, partially offset by a decrease in interest expense on interest-bearing demand and savings deposits. The provision for credit losses was $17.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $14.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The provision for credit losses for the three months ended September 30, 2025, was primarily driven by the Verdant acquisition, loan growth and the impact of macroeconomic variables used in the allowance for credit losses model. Non-interest income increased to $32.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $28.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher banking and service fee income and higher mortgage banking and servicing rights. Non-interest expense, comprised of various operating expenses, increased $8.8 million to $156.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $147.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to higher professional services, data and operational processing expense and salaries and related costs. Balance Sheet Summary Axos’ total assets increased by $2.6 billion, or 10.7%, to $27.4 billion, at September 30, 2025, from $24.8 billion at June 30, 2025, primarily attributable to an increase in loans, mainly attributable to the Verdant acquisition, and higher cash and cash equivalents. Total liabilities increased by $2.5 billion, or 11.5%, to $24.6 billion at September 30, 2025, 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 $112.4 million, or 4.2%, to $2.8 billion at September 30, 2025 from $2.7 billion at June 30, 2025, primarily due to net income of $112.4 million.

Segment Reporting The Company operates through two segments: the Banking Business Segment and the Securities Business Segment. In order to reconcile the two segments to the consolidated totals, the Company includes corporate activities and intercompany eliminations. Inter-segment transactions are eliminated in consolidation and primarily include non-interest income earned by the Securities Business Segment and non-interest expense incurred by the Banking Business Segment for cash sorting fees related to deposits sourced from Securities Business Segment customers. The following tables present the operating results of the segments: 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: 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. Below is a reconciliation of total stockholders’ equity, the nearest comparable GAAP measure, to tangible book value per common share (non-GAAP) as of the dates indicated: Forward-Looking Safe Harbor Statement This press release contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including without limitation statements relating to Axos’ financial prospects and other projections of its performance and asset quality, Axos’ deposit balances and capital ratios, Axos’ ability to continue to grow profitably and increase its business, Axos’ ability to continue to diversify its lending and deposit franchises, the anticipated timing and financial performance of other offerings, initiatives, and acquisitions, expectations of the environment in which Axos operates and projections of future performance.
