CEO COMMENTARY

Commenting on the Bank's second quarter 2026 performance, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Joseph M. Otting stated, "Flagstar's second quarter operating performance reflects our third consecutive quarter of profitability and improved earnings and represents continued progress on our path to transforming into a top-performing regional bank. During the quarter, we made considerable strides diversifying our balance sheet, reaching an important inflection point in asset growth, as total assets increased 3% on an annualized basis compared to the first quarter, driven by overall growth in our loan portfolio.

"Total loans increased 4% annualized, driven by record C&I loan production, which more than offset the continued strategic reduction in the commercial real estate portfolio. This marks the first quarter of loan growth since the fourth quarter of 2023. C&I originations in the second quarter totaled $2.8 billion, while commitments were $4.2 billion. This drove a $2.0 billion or 12% increase in C&I loans to $18.6 billion compared to the previous quarter.

"We also generated net deposit growth of $689 million, all of which was driven by core deposits. More importantly, $706 million of this quarter's deposit growth was C&I lending-related, as we have broadened our customer relationships in that key business.

"The net interest margin was relatively consistent with the prior quarter, while we reduced our cost of deposits by five basis points and our overall cost of funds by seven basis points. Additionally, we continued to pay down our wholesale borrowings, further strengthening our funding base.

"Also contributing to our improved operating performance was our continued focus on expense management, as operating expenses declined 3%, driving positive operating leverage of 7%.

"Our credit quality trends remained relatively stable during the quarter. While we did see a modest increase in total non-accrual loans, the overall level of criticized and classified loans decreased, driven mainly by a 6% decline in substandard loans.

"Importantly, we continue to maintain a strong capital position, with a CET1 capital ratio of 13.16% at the end of the quarter. This level of capital provides meaningful financial flexibility to support balance sheet growth, invest in our franchise, and return capital to shareholders over time. On that note, this morning we also announced the adoption of a $250 million share repurchase program. This reflects the tremendous progress we have made in executing on our strategic plan, the strength of our capital position and the positive long-term outlook for the Bank. We believe that returning capital to our shareholders through a stock buyback represents a compelling and disciplined use of our excess capital at this time.

"Overall, we believe the progress we have made over the past several quarters demonstrates the effectiveness of our strategy and positions the Bank well to deliver sustainable long-term shareholder value."

BALANCE SHEET SUMMARY

Linked-Quarter Comparison

• Total assets increased $0.6 billion or 1% to $87.7 billion driven by loan growth and an increase in securities, partially offset by a decline in cash balances.
• Total loans and leases held for investment ("HFI") were $61.0 billion, up $0.6 billion or 1% (up 4% annualized); driven by solid growth in the C&I portfolio, partially offset by a decline in the multi-family and CRE portfolios as a result of our continued strategy of diversifying the loan portfolio.
• During the second quarter, we delivered broad-based loan growth across our C&I platform, while our CRE portfolio declined as part of our ongoing strategic balance sheet de-risking efforts.
  • Total C&I loans increased $2.0 billion or 12% to $18.6 billion driven primarily by growth within Specialized Industries and Corporate & Regional Commercial Banking.
    • Specialized Industries Banking loans increased $1,675 million or 34%.
    • Corporate & Regional Commercial Banking increased $375 million or 18%.

  • CRE concentration improved to 350% compared to 367%.

• Total borrowed funds declined $0.2 billion or 2% to $10.9 billion.
• Wholesale borrowings, consisting of Federal Home Loan Bank of New York ("FHLB-NY") advances accounted for all of this decline and totaled $9.9 billion, down $250 million or 2%.

EARNINGS SUMMARY FOR THE THREE AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2026

Net Interest Income, Net Interest Margin, and Average Balance Sheet

Net Interest Income

Second quarter 2026 net interest income totaled $440 million compared to $443 million, down $3 million or 1% compared to first quarter 2026 but rose $21 million or 5% compared to second quarter 2025.

For the first six months of 2026, net interest income increased $54 million or 7% to $0.9 billion compared to $0.8 billion for the first six months of 2025.

Linked-Quarter Comparison

• Average interest-earnings assets decreased $0.3 billion or 0.3% to $83.1 billion as a result of lower average cash balances, partially offset by growth in average loans and average securities.

• Average interest-bearing liabilities declined $0.1 billion or 0.2% to $65.4 billion, average borrowed funds declined 10% partially offset by a 2% increase in average interest-bearing deposits.

• The net interest margin decreased 2 basis points to 2.13% due to a lower average cost of funds, more than offset by a lower average asset yield. Excluding the impact from the extra day in the quarter, the net interest margin would have been 2.16%.

Year-Over-Year Comparison

• Average interest-earning assets decreased 11% to $83.1 billion, driven by lower average cash balances due to balance sheet deleveraging.

• Average loans and average cash balances both declined, offset by growth in the investment securities portfolio.

• Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased 12% or $8.8 billion to $65.4 billion with average deposits declining 8% to $55.2 billion as the Bank significantly reduced brokered deposits throughout 2025.

• Average borrowings declined 27% or $3.8 billion to $10.3 billion as the Bank continued to pay down wholesale borrowings.

• The net interest margin increased 32 basis points driven by a lower cost of deposits and borrowings, partially offset by lower earning asset yields.

Year-to-Date Comparison

• Average interest-earning assets declined $11.1 billion or 12% to $83.2 billion primarily due to lower average loan balances, down 9%, as we reduced CRE loans and lower average cash balances, down 60%, due to balance sheet deleveraging, partially offset by a 20% increase in average securities balances.

• Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $9.7 billion or 13% to $65.5 billion due to reduction in average borrowings, down 24%, and a 10% decrease in average deposits, as we reduced higher cost funding, including brokered CDs and wholesale borrowings.

• The net interest margin increased 37 basis points to 2.14% due to a 65 basis point improvement in the average cost of funds.

Provision for Credit Losses

Linked-Quarter Comparison

• For the second quarter 2026, we reported a provision for credit losses of $18 million compared to no provision in first quarter 2026.

• The increase was primarily driven by growth in the C&I portfolio, higher charge-offs and updates to assumptions related to recent New York City rent-regulated multi-family developments, partially offset by strategic reductions in the multi-family and CRE portfolios.

• Net charge-offs for the second quarter 2026 totaled $100 million, up $22 million or 28%.

• Net charge-offs on an annualized basis represented 0.66% of average loans outstanding, compared to 0.52% for first quarter 2026.

Year-Over-Year Comparison

• The provision for credit losses decreased $46 million or 72% primarily due to the continued decline in multi-family and CRE loan balances.

• Net charge-offs declined $17 million or 15%.

Year-to-Date Comparison

• For the first six months of 2026, the provision for credit losses totaled $18 million compared to $143 million for the first six months of 2025, down $125 million or 87%.  The decrease was primarily due to strategic reductions in the multi-family and CRE portfolios and lower net charge-offs.

• Net charge-offs totaled $178 million compared to $232 million.

• Net charge-offs represented 0.59% of average loans outstanding compared to 0.70%.

Pre-Provision Net Revenue

The table below details the Bank's pre-provision net revenue ("PPNR") and PPNR, as adjusted, which are non-GAAP measures, for the periods noted:

For second quarter 2026, PPNR totaled $66 million compared to PPNR of $32 million for first quarter 2026 and a pre-provision net loss of $17 million for second quarter 2025.

Linked-Quarter Comparison

• Second quarter PPNR was $66 million compared to $32 million, up 106%.

• Excluding the impact from the Figure Investment in both quarters would have resulted in a PPNR of $62 million compared to $41 million up 51%.

• Majority of the increase was due to a decline in non-interest expenses, down 3%.

Year-Over-Year Comparison

• Second quarter 2026 PPNR increased $83 million compared to a pre-provision net loss of $17 million in the year-ago quarter.

• Excluding the impact from the Figure Investment and several other one-time items in the year ago quarter, adjusted PPNR was $62 million compared to $9 million in the year-ago quarter.

• Majority of the increase was due to lower non-interest expense and higher net interest income.

Year-to-Date Comparison

• PPNR was $98 million compared to pre-provision net loss of $59 million. The first six months of 2026 PPNR included a $5 million loss related to the Figure Investment.

• As adjusted, pre-provision net revenue was $103 million for the first six months of 2026 compared to a pre-provision net loss of $15 million for the first six months of 2025, which excludes $22 million of merger-related expenses, $2 million in severance, $12 million in lease cost acceleration, and $8 million in trailing mortgage sale costs.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income in second quarter 2026 was $76 million, up $21 million or 38% compared to $55 million in first quarter 2026 and down $1 million or 1% compared to second quarter 2025.

Linked-Quarter Comparison

• Second quarter 2026 adjusted non-interest income increased $8 million or 13%, excluding the impact from the Figure Investment.

• Quarter-over-quarter improvement was driven by increases in fee income, driven by increased treasury management and capital markets income, BOLI, and other income.

Year-Over-Year Comparison

• Second quarter 2026 adjusted non-interest income declined $5 million or 6%, excluding the impact from the Figure Investment.

• The year-over-year decline was a result of lower net gain on loan sales income and other income. This was due to the sale of the Bank's mortgage servicing and third-party origination business, offset by higher levels of fee income and BOLI.

For the first six months of 2026, non-interest income totaled $131 million compared to $157 million for the first six months of 2025.

Year-to-Date Comparison

• For the first six months of 2026, non-interest income includes the aforementioned $5 million net loss on the sale of our Figure Investment. As adjusted, non-interest income for the first six months of 2026 was $136 million compared to $157 million for the first six months of 2025, a $21 million or 13% decline.

• The year-over-year decline was driven by a decline in the net gain on loan sales and securitizations and a decrease in other income. This was partially offset by an increase in fee income.

Non-Interest Expense

Second quarter 2026 operating expenses were $427 million compared to $441 million in first quarter 2026, down $14 million or 3%, and they declined $45 million or 10% compared to second quarter 2025.

• Main drivers were decreases in FDIC insurance expense, compensation and benefits, professional services, and general and administrative expense.

For the first six months of 2026, operating expenses totaled $868 million, down $100 million or 10% compared to the first six months of 2025.

• As adjusted for these items operating expenses for the first six months of 2026 were $868 million compared to $946 million for first six months of 2025, down $78 million or 8%.

• On an adjusted basis, the year-over-year improvement was primarily driven by decreases in compensation and benefits expense, FDIC insurance expense, general and administrative expense, and occupancy and equipment expense.

FLAGSTAR BANK, N.A.

RECONCILIATIONS OF CERTAIN GAAP AND NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to GAAP measures, management considers various non-GAAP measures when evaluating the performance of the business. 

We believe that non-interest income, operating expenses, pre-provision net (loss) revenue (which includes both non-interest income and non-interest expense), net income (loss), net income (loss) attributed to common stockholders, diluted earnings (loss) per share, the net interest margin, and our efficiency ratio as adjusted for items that we believe are not indicative of core operating results, such as but not limited to merger and restructuring expenses, litigation settlement expenses related to cases prior to the acquisition of Flagstar Bank, NA, fair value adjustments on non-core equity investments, as well as adjustments for severance and impairment charges and other exit costs resulting from strategic shifts in our operations provide valuable insights to investors by highlighting our underlying performance.  These non-GAAP metrics also facilitate meaningful comparisons to other financial institutions, as they are widely used and frequently referenced by investors and analysts.

We believe average tangible common stockholders' equity, tangible common stockholders' equity, average tangible assets and tangible book value per share are important measures for evaluating the performance of the business without the impact of our intangible assets.  These non-GAAP metrics also provide investors with important indications regarding our ability to grow the business, our ability to pay dividends as well as engage in capital strategies in addition to facilitating meaningful comparisons to other financial institutions, as they are widely used and frequently referenced by investors and analysts.

These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.  Moreover, the way we calculate these non-GAAP measures may differ from that of other companies reporting non-GAAP measures with similar names. The following tables reconcile the above the non-GAAP financial measures we use to their comparable GAAP financial measures, to the extent not reconciled earlier in this earnings release, for the stated periods:
