Metropolitan Bank Holding Corp. Reports Second Quarter 2026 Results

About this update from Metropolitan Bank Holding Corp.

Metropolitan Bank Holding Corp. (the “Company”) (NYSE: MCB), the holding company for Metropolitan Commercial Bank (the “Bank”), reported net income of $19.2 million, or $1.54 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2026 compared to $31.4 million, or $2.92 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2026 and $18.8 million, or $1.76 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2025. Mark DeFazio, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “I am pleased with the continued progress we are making across the franchise. Balance sheet growth remains consistent with our prior guidance, our lending pipeline remains robust, and loan yields continue to hold. On the funding side, our deposit forecast remains in line with guidance, and we continue to expect the momentum in our core operating trends to persist. This quarter’s earnings were noticeably affected by isolated items. However, we made significant progress in the resolution of legacy asset quality matters.” Balance Sheet Total loans, net of deferred fees and unamortized costs, were $7.3 billion at June 30, 2026, an increase of $282.4 million, or 4.0%, from March 31, 2026, and an increase of $716.1 million, or 10.8%, from June 30, 2025. Loan production was $718.9 million for the second quarter of 2026 compared to $428.3 million for the prior linked quarter and $492.0 million for the prior year period. The increase in total loans from March 31, 2026 was due primarily to an increase of $330.3 million in CRE loans (including owner-occupied), partially offset by a decrease of $69.8 million in C&I loans. The increase in total loans from June 30, 2025 was due primarily to an increase of $918.1 million in CRE loans (including owner-occupied), partially offset by a decrease of $184.9 million in commercial and industrial loans. Total deposits were $7.7 billion at June 30, 2026, a decrease of $8.2 million, or 0.1%, from March 31, 2026, and an increase of $940.2 million, or 13.8%, from June 30, 2025. The small decline in deposits from March 31, 2026 was driven by seasonal outflows of certain municipal deposits, as well as the Bank’s planned termination of a $100.0 million high cost treasury deposit. The increase in total deposits from June 30, 2025 was broadly distributed across the Bank’s various deposit verticals. The Bank’s liquidity position remains robust. At June 30, 2026, cash on deposit with the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and available secured funding capacity totaled $3.1 billion, which represented 156% of our estimated uninsured deposits. Total cash and cash equivalents were $239.3 million at June 30, 2026. The Company and Bank have total risk-based capital ratios well above regulatory minimums. The Bank is “well capitalized” under all applicable regulatory guidelines. Total non-owner-occupied CRE loans were 304.1% of total risk-based capital at June 30, 2026, compared to 299.5% and 371.9% at March 31, 2026 and June 30, 2025, respectively. The CRE loan concentration ratio declined from June 30, 2025 primarily owing to the increase in the Bank’s total capital as a result of the completion of the Company’s follow-on public equity offering of common stock in the first quarter of 2026.

See Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures on page 13. Net Interest Income Net interest income for the second quarter of 2026 was $90.4 million compared to $85.9 million for the prior linked quarter and $73.6 million for the prior year period. The $4.5 million increase from the prior linked quarter was primarily due to an increase in the average balance of loans, securities, and overnight deposits and a decrease in the total cost of funds, partially offset by an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits. The $16.8 million increase from the prior year period was primarily due to an increase in the average balance of loans and overnight deposits and a decrease in the cost of funds, partially offset by an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits. Net Interest Margin Net interest margin for the second quarter of 2026 was 4.08% compared to 4.08% and 3.83% for the prior linked quarter and prior year period, respectively. The total cost of funds for the second quarter of 2026 was 257 basis points compared to 261 basis points and 310 basis points for the prior linked quarter and prior year period, respectively. The decrease from the prior linked quarter primarily reflects changes in deposit mix. The decrease from the prior year period primarily reflects the decline in short-term interest rates. Non-Interest Income Non-interest income was $2.6 million for the second quarter of 2026, a decrease of $19,000 from the prior linked quarter and a decrease of $61,000 from the prior year period. The decrease from the prior linked quarter was primarily due to a decrease in service charges on deposit accounts, partially offset by an increase in loan production fees. The decrease from the prior year period was driven primarily by a decrease in loan production fees, partially offset by an increase in service charges on deposit accounts. Non-Interest Expense Non-interest expense was $51.8 million for the second quarter of 2026, an increase of $5.4 million from the prior linked quarter and an increase of $8.7 million from the prior year period. The $5.4 million increase from the prior linked quarter was primarily due to a $1.8 million one-time legal accrual, $1.4 million increase in professional fees, and $1.2 million increase in compensation and benefits, partially offset by a $560,000 decrease in the FDIC assessment. The $8.7 million increase from the prior year period was due primarily to a $5.1 million increase in compensation and benefits, a $1.8 million one-time legal accrual, and $1.1 million increase in technology costs, partially offset by a $1.7 million decrease in the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) assessment. Income Tax Expense The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2026 was 31.1% compared to 29.2% for the prior linked quarter and 29.9% for the prior year period. Asset Quality The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans was 0.91% at June 30, 2026, 1.01% at March 31, 2026 and 0.60% at June 30, 2025. The decrease in the non-performing loan ratio from the prior linked quarter primarily reflects the charge-off of the aforementioned CRE out-of-market loan relationship. The increase in the non-performing loan ratio from the prior year period is primarily attributable to the impact of the aforementioned CRE out-of-market and C&I non-core loan relationships. The allowance for credit losses was $62.0 million at June 30, 2026, a decrease of $20.1 million from March 31, 2026, and a decrease of $12.1 million from June 30, 2025. The decrease from March 31, 2026, primarily reflects the charge-off related to the aforementioned CRE out-of-market loan relationship. The decrease from June 30, 2025, was primarily due to enhancements made to the Bank’s allowance for credit loss estimation process implemented in the first quarter of 2026, as well as the charge-off related to the aforementioned CRE out-of-market loan relationship, partially offset by loan growth.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures In addition to the results presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), this earnings release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful information to investors in understanding the Company’s operating performance and trends. These non-GAAP measures have inherent limitations and are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of results reported under GAAP. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
