Valley National Bancorp Announces Second Quarter 2026 Results

About this update from Valley National Bancorp

NEW YORK, July 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Valley National Bancorp ( NASDAQ: VLY ), the holding company for Valley National Bank, today reported net income for the second quarter 2026 of $170.9 million, or $0.29 per diluted common share, as compared to the first quarter 2026 net income of $163.9 million, or $0.28 per diluted common share, and net income of $133.2 million, or $0.22 per diluted common share, for the second quarter 2025. Excluding all non-core charges, our adjusted net income (a non-GAAP measure) was $172.8 million, or $0.30 per diluted common share, for the second quarter 2026, $168.9 million, or $0.29 per diluted common share, for the first quarter 2026, and $134.4 million, or $0.23 per diluted common share, for the second quarter 2025. See further details below, including a reconciliation of our non-GAAP adjusted net income, in the "Consolidated Financial Highlights" tables. Ira Robbins, CEO, commented, "This quarter's strong results reflect the continued execution of our strategic vision. Despite continued competition across our geographies and business lines, our relationship-led value proposition has resulted in strong non-interest bearing deposit and C&I loan growth." Mr. Robbins continued, "At the same time, we remain focused on operational efficiency and the re-allocation of resources from manual processing to franchise-enhancing customer acquisition areas. We anticipate further financial improvement through the remainder of the year and we look forward to continuing to create long-term value for our shareholders." Key financial highlights for the second quarter 2026 : Net Interest Margin and Income: Our net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis of 3.20 percent for the second quarter 2026 increased 3 basis points and 19 basis points from the first quarter 2026 and second quarter 2025, respectively. Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis of $488.4 million for the second quarter 2026 increased $15.6 million and $54.7 million compared to the first quarter 2026 and second quarter 2025, respectively. The increase in net interest income from the first quarter 2026 was mainly driven by an increase in average loans, higher yields on new loan originations and investment securities purchased, as well as one additional day during the second quarter 2026. These tailwinds were partially offset by the cost of carrying excess subordinated notes between the time of our successful issuance of $500 million of new notes in May 2026 and the redemption of $300 million of callable notes in June 2026. See additional details in the "Net Interest Income and Margin" and "Other Borrowings" sections below. Deposits: Total deposit balances increased $1.3 billion to $54.1 billion at June 30, 2026 as compared to $52.9 billion at March 31, 2026. Direct customer deposits increased $1.1 billion during the second quarter 2026 mainly due to inflows from retail CD offerings and growth in our commercial customer deposits. Non-interest bearing deposits increased $298.6 million reflecting continued expansion of relationships with commercial banking customers during the second quarter 2026. See the "Deposits" section below for more details. Loan Portfolio: Total loans increased $1.6 billion, or 12.9 percent on an annualized basis, to $52.5 billion at June 30, 2026 from March 31, 2026 mostly due to increases of $857.2 million and $638.9 million in commercial and industrial (C&I) loans and total commercial real estate (CRE) loans, respectively. Loan originations from a range of relationship-driven small to midsize clients continued to drive the growth in C&I loans during the second quarter 2026, while new owner occupied and select multifamily loan originations were the primary contributors to the growth in the CRE loan portfolio at June 30, 2026. Our CRE loan concentration ratio (defined as total CRE loans held for investment and held for sale, excluding owner occupied loans, as a percentage of total risk-based capital) continued to decline to approximately 317 percent at June 30, 2026 from 329 percent at March 31, 2026 largely due to organic capital accretion and a $200 million increase in (Tier 2) total risk-based capital during the quarter. See the "Loans" section below for more details. Allowance and Provision for Credit Losses for Loans : The allowance for credit losses for loans totaled $606.9 million and $599.8 million at June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026, respectively, representing 1.16 percent and 1.18 percent of total loans at each respective date. During the second quarter 2026, we recorded a provision for credit losses for loans of $29.2 million as compared to $21.2 million and $37.8 million for the first quarter 2026 and second quarter 2025, respectively. See the "Credit Quality" section below for more details. Credit Quality: Net loan charge-offs totaled $22.0 million for the second quarter 2026 as compared to $17.5 million and $37.8 million for the first quarter 2026 and second quarter 2025, respectively. Total accruing past due loans (i.e., loans past due 30 days or more and still accruing interest) increased $52.3 million to $180.2 million, or 0.34 percent of total loans, at June 30, 2026 as compared to $127.9 million, or 0.25 percent of total loans, at March 31, 2026. The increase was mainly due to a few larger CRE loans within the 30 to 59 days past due delinquency category. Non-accrual loans totaled $462.6 million, or 0.88 percent of total loans, at June 30, 2026 as compared to $432.6 million, or 0.85 percent of total loans, at March 31, 2026. See the "Credit Quality" section below for more details. Non-Interest Income: Non-interest income increased $4.9 million to $73.7 million for the second quarter 2026 as compared to the first quarter 2026 mainly driven by $2.6 million and $1.6 million increases in capital markets, and wealth management and trust fees, respectively. The fee increases were largely due to increased transaction volumes within loan participations and syndications and tax credit advisory services during the second quarter 2026. Non-Interest Exp ense: Non-interest expense increased $1.2 million to $311.1 million for the second quarter 2026 as compared to the first quarter 2026. The increase was largely driven by a $4.4 million increase in professional and legal fees mostly due to higher third-party managed services and consulting fees related to our operational transformation efforts, as well as incremental increases in technology and FDIC assessment expenses. These items were partially offset by a $5.3 million decrease in salary and employee benefits expense during the second quarter 2026 largely resulting from our continued focus on resource optimization, as well as the normal seasonal decline in payroll taxes from the first quarter 2026. Efficiency Ratio: Our efficiency ratio was 52.11 percent for the second quarter 2026 as compared to 53.10 percent and 55.20 percent for the first quarter 2026 and second quarter 2025, respectively. See the "Consolidated Financial Highlights" tables below for additional information regarding our non-GAAP measures. Performance Ratios: Annualized return on average assets (ROA), shareholders’ equity (ROE) and tangible common shareholders' equity (ROTCE) were 1.04 percent, 8.65 percent and 11.91 percent for the second quarter 2026, respectively. Annualized ROA, ROE, and ROTCE, adjusted for non-core income and charges, were 1.05 percent, 8.75 percent and 12.05 percent for the second quarter 2026, respectively. See the "Consolidated Financial Highlights" tables below for additional information regarding our non-GAAP measures. Net Interest Income and Margin Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis of $488.4 million for the second quarter 2026 increased $15.6 million and $54.7 million compared to the first quarter 2026 and the second quarter 2025, respectively. Interest income on a tax equivalent basis increased $26.7 million to $830.7 million for the second quarter 2026 as compared to the first quarter 2026. The increase was mostly due to (i) increased average loan balances largely driven by growth in C&I and owner occupied CRE loans during the first half of 2026, (ii) additional interest income from purchases of higher-yielding taxable investments and (iii) one additional day in the second quarter 2026. Total interest expense increased $11.2 million to $342.4 million for the second quarter 2026 as compared to the first quarter 2026. The increase was mainly the result of (i) higher average time deposits and short-term borrowings balances during the second quarter 2026, (ii) the higher cost of certain non-maturity deposit products and short-term borrowings, (iii) the cost of carrying excess subordinated debt for a portion of the quarter, as well as (iv) the aforementioned increase in day count as compared to the first quarter 2026. See the "Deposits" and "Other Borrowings" sections below for more details. Net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis of 3.20 percent for the second quarter 2026 increased 3 basis points from 3.17 percent for the first quarter 2026 and 19 basis points from 3.01 percent for the second quarter 2025. The yield on average interest earning assets increased by 5 basis points to 5.44 percent on a linked quarter basis largely due to higher yields on new loan originations and investment securities purchased during the second quarter 2026. The overall cost of average interest bearing liabilities increased by 4 basis points to 3.10 percent for the second quarter 2026 as compared to the first quarter 2026 largely due to the higher cost of non-maturity deposits and short-term borrowings, as well as the cost of carrying excess subordinated debt for a portion of the quarter. Our cost of total average deposits was 2.28 percent for the second quarter 2026 as compared to 2.27 percent and 2.67 percent for the first quarter 2026 and second quarter 2025, respectively. Loans, Deposits and Other Borrowings Loans. Total loans increased $1.6 billion, or 12.9 percent on an annualized basis, to $52.5 billion at June 30, 2026 from March 31, 2026. C&I loans increased by $857.2 million, or 30.9 percent on an annualized basis, to $12.0 billion at June 30, 2026 from March 31, 2026 largely driven by new originations from a range of relationship-driven small to midsize clients as a result of our continued focus on expansion of new loan production within this category. Total CRE (including construction) loans increased $638.9 million to $30.3 billion at June 30, 2026 from March 31, 2026 mostly due to solid customer demand and loan originations largely within our healthcare vertical of the owner occupied loan category. Non-owner occupied loans decreased $357.2 million from March 31, 2026 mainly due to our continued targeted runoff of transactional/non-relationship loans, which outpaced limited new originations in this category during the second quarter 2026. Residential mortgage loans increased $113.9 million from March 31, 2026 mainly due to continued retention of most new loan origination activity and modest levels of prepayments. Total consumer loans increased $28.5 million from March 31, 2026 primarily due to the combined growth in home equity loans and other collateralized personal lines of credit, partially offset by a $48.0 million decrease in automobile loans as repayments outpaced consumer demand. Deposits. Actual ending balances for deposits increased $1.3 billion to $54.1 billion at June 30, 2026 from March 31, 2026 mainly due to increases of $1.5 billion and $298.6 million in time and non-interest bearing deposits, respectively, partially offset by a $506.1 million decline in the savings, NOW and money market deposit category. The increase in time deposits was largely driven by our targeted retail CD offerings and higher indirect customer CD balances. The increase in non-interest bearing deposits was mainly due to continued deposit inflows from commercial banking customers during the second quarter 2026. The decrease in savings, NOW and money market deposits from March 31, 2026 was mainly driven by lower brokered and governmental account balances at June 30, 2026. Total indirect customer deposits (consisting of both brokered time and money market deposits) totaled $5.3 billion and $5.1 billion at June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026, respectively. Non-interest bearing deposits; savings, NOW and money market deposits; and time deposits represented approximately 23 percent, 53 percent and 24 percent of total deposits at June 30, 2026 as compared to 23 percent, 55 percent and 22 percent at March 31, 2026. Other Borro wing s. Short-term borrowings increased $369.6 million to $433.5 million at June 30, 2026 from March 31, 2026 due to $375 million of short-term FHLB advances outstanding at June 30, 2026, partially offset by a modest decline in securities sold under repurchase agreements. Long-term borrowings totaled $2.6 billion at June 30, 2026 and increased $46.3 million as compared to March 31, 2026. The increase was mainly attributable to $500 million of 6.219 percent fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes issued in May 2026 due June 1, 2036, partially offset by the full early redemption of our $300 million of 3.00 percent fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes originally due June 15, 2031, as well as normal repayments of maturing FHLB advances. No gain or loss was recognized on the early redemption of the subordinated notes during the second quarter 2026. Credit Quality Non-Performing Assets (NPAs). NPAs, consisting of non-accrual loans, other real estate owned (OREO) and other repossessed assets, increased $28.2 million to $467.8 million at June 30, 2026 from March 31, 2026. Non-accrual loans increased $30.0 million to $462.6 million, or 0.88 percent of total loans, at June 30, 2026 as compared to $432.6 million, or 0.85 percent of total loans, at March 31, 2026. The increase was mainly attributable to three CRE loans that migrated from the 30 to 59 days past due delinquency category at March 31, 2026 to non-accrual loans during the second quarter of 2026. These three collateral dependent non-accrual CRE loans totaled $49.6 million, net of partial charge-offs of $1.3 million during the second quarter 2026, and had no related allocated reserves within our allowance for credit losses for loans at June 30, 2026. Accruing Past Due Loans. Total accruing past due loans (i.e., loans past due 30 days or more and still accruing interest) increased $52.3 million to $180.2 million, or 0.34 percent of total loans, at June 30, 2026 as compared to $127.9 million, or 0.25 percent of total loans, at March 31, 2026. Loans 30 to 59 days past due increased $42.6 million to $151.0 million at June 30, 2026 as compared to March 31, 2026 mainly due to a few larger CRE loans, partially offset by the migration of the aforementioned CRE loans to non-accrual loans during the second quarter 2026. Loans 60 to 89 days past due increased $4.3 million to $13.1 million at June 30, 2026 as compared to March 31, 2026 mainly due to moderate increases in the residential mortgage and C&I loan categories. Loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest increased $5.4 million to $16.1 million at June 30, 2026 as compared to March 31, 2026 primarily due to the second quarter 2026 migration of a $5.5 million CRE loan previously reported in the 30 to 59 days past due delinquency category at March 31, 2026. All loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing interest are well-secured and in the process of collection. Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans and Unfunded Commitments. The following table summarizes the allocation of the allowance for credit losses to loan categories and the allocation as a percentage of each loan category at June 30, 2026, March 31, 2026, and June 30, 2025:     June 30, 2026   March 31, 2026   June 30, 2025         Allocation       Allocation       Allocation         as a % of       as a % of       as a % of     Allowance   Loan   Allowance   Loan   Allowance   Loan   Allocation   Category   Allocation   Category   Allocation   Category   ($ in thousands) Loan Category:                       Commercial and industrial loans $ 198,910   1.66 %   $ 186,143   1.68 %   $ 173,415   1.60 % Commercial real estate loans:                         Commercial real estate   268,445   0.96       269,847   0.99       270,937   1.04     Construction   50,623   2.05       54,946   2.21       64,042   2.24   Total commercial real estate loans   319,068   1.05       324,793   1.09       334,979   1.16   Residential mortgage loans   48,905   0.82       51,700   0.88       48,830   0.86   Consumer loans:                         Home equity   4,333   0.59       4,120   0.59       3,689   0.58     Auto and other consumer   19,384   0.56       17,744   0.52       18,587   0.55   Total consumer loans   23,717   0.57       21,864   0.53       22,276   0.56   Allowance for loan losses   590,600   1.13       584,500   1.15       579,500   1.17   Allowance for unfunded credit commitments   16,320         15,300         14,520     Total allowance for credit losses for loans $ 606,920       $ 599,800       $ 594,020     Allowance for credit losses for loans as a % of total loans     1.16 %       1.18 %       1.20 % Our loan portfolio, totaling $52.5 billion at June 30, 2026, had net loan charge-offs totaling $22.0 million for the second quarter 2026 as compared to $17.5 million and $37.8 million for the first quarter 2026 and the second quarter 2025, respectively. Gross loan charge-offs totaled $27.6 million for the second quarter 2026 and were largely due to partial charge-offs of non-performing CRE and C&I loans. The allowance for credit losses for loans, comprised of our allowance for loan losses and unfunded credit commitments, as a percentage of total loans was 1.16 percent at June 30, 2026, 1.18 percent at March 31, 2026, and 1.20 percent at June 30, 2025. For the second quarter 2026, the provision for credit losses for loans totaled $29.2 million as compared to $21.2 million and $37.8 million for the first quarter 2026 and second quarter 2025, respectively. The second quarter 2026 provision was mainly impacted by (i) higher specific reserves associated with collateral dependent loans, (ii) an increase in the economic forecast component of our reserve and (iii) strong commercial loan growth, partially offset by a decline in quantitative reserves largely within certain CRE loan categories at June 30, 2026. Capital Adequacy Valley's total risk-based capital, Tier 1 capital, common equity tier 1 capital, and Tier 1 leverage capital ratios were 13.77 percent, 11.37 percent, 10.71 percent and 9.49 percent, respectively, at June 30, 2026 as compared to 13.66 percent, 11.60 percent, 10.91 percent and 9.56 percent, respectively, at March 31, 2026. During the second quarter 2026, we repurchased 1.5 million shares of our common stock at an average price of $13.40 under our current stock repurchase plan.

rate. Valley believes that this presentation provides comparability of net interest income and net interest margin arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources and is consistent with industry practice and SEC rules. (2 ) Non-GAAP Reconciliations. This press release contains certain supplemental financial information, described in the Notes below, which has been determined by methods other than U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") that management uses in its analysis of Valley's performance. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information to both management and investors in understanding Valley’s underlying operational performance, business and performance trends, and may facilitate comparisons of our current and prior performance with the performance of others in the financial services industry. Management utilizes these measures for internal planning, forecasting and analysis purposes. Management believes that Valley’s presentation and discussion of this supplemental information, together with the accompanying reconciliations to the GAAP financial measures, also allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to management. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for or superior to financial measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may also be calculated differently from similar measures disclosed by other companies.
