1. Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Hancock Whitney Corporation and all other entities in which it has a controlling interest (the “Company”). The financial statements include all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly state the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The Company has also evaluated all subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure through the date of the filing of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this "Report" or "report'). Some financial information and disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission rules and regulations. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024. Financial information reported in these financial statements is not necessarily indicative of the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows for any other interim or annual period.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These changes in presentation did not have a material impact on the Company's financial condition or operating results.

Use of Estimates

The accounting principles the Company follows and the methods for applying these principles conform to GAAP and general practices followed by the banking industry. These accounting principles require management to make estimates and assumptions about future events that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounting Policies

There were no material changes or developments during the reporting period with respect to methodologies that the Company uses when applying what management believes are critical accounting policies and developing critical accounting estimates as disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Credit Quality

The Company’s policy is to invest only in securities of investment grade quality. These investments are largely limited to U.S. agency securities and municipal securities. Management has concluded, based on the long history of no credit losses, that the expectation of nonpayment of the held to maturity securities carried at amortized cost is zero for securities that are backed by the full faith and credit of and/or guaranteed by the U.S. government. As such, no allowance for credit losses has been recorded for these securities. The municipal portfolio is analyzed separately for allowance for credit loss in accordance with the applicable guidance for each portfolio as noted below.

The Company evaluates credit impairment for individual securities available for sale whose fair value was below amortized cost with a more than inconsequential risk of default and where the Company had assessed whether the decline in fair value was significant enough to suggest a credit event occurred. There were no securities with a material credit loss event and, therefore, no allowance for credit loss was recorded in any period presented.

The fair value and gross unrealized losses for securities classified as available for sale with unrealized losses for the periods indicated follow.

At each reporting period, the Company evaluated its held to maturity municipal obligation portfolio for credit loss using probability of default and loss given default models. The models were run using a long-term average probability of default migration and with a probability weighting of Moody’s economic forecasts. The resulting credit losses, if any, were negligible and no allowance for credit loss was recorded.

The fair value and gross unrealized losses for securities classified as held to maturity with unrealized losses for the periods indicated follow.

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had 673 and 729 securities, respectively, with market values below their cost basis. There were no material unrealized losses related to the marketability of the securities or the issuer’s ability to meet contractual obligations. In all cases, the indicated impairment on these debt securities would be recovered no later than the security’s maturity date or possibly earlier if the market price for the security increases with a reduction in the yield required by the market. The unrealized losses were deemed to be non-credit related at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. At March 31, 2025, the Company had adequate liquidity and, therefore, neither planned to nor expected to be required to liquidate these securities before recovery of the amortized cost basis.

3. Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses

The Company generally makes loans in its market areas of southern and central Mississippi; southern and central Alabama; northwest, central and southern Louisiana; the northern, central and panhandle regions of Florida; certain areas of east and northeast Texas; and the metropolitan areas of Nashville, Tennessee and Atlanta, Georgia. In addition, and to a lesser degree, the Bank makes loans both regionally and nationally, generally through its specialty lines of business, including the equipment finance, commercial real estate and healthcare segments, often with sponsors in our market areas.

The following table presents loans at their amortized cost basis, by portfolio class at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. The amortized cost basis is net of unearned income and excludes accrued interest totaling $106.8 million and $109.8 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Accrued interest is reflected in the accrued interest line item in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The following briefly describes the composition of each loan category and portfolio class.

Commercial and industrial

Commercial and industrial loans are made available to businesses for working capital (including financing of inventory and receivables), for business expansion, facilitating the acquisition of a business, and for the purchase of equipment and machinery, including equipment leasing. These loans are primarily made based on the identified cash flows of the borrower and, when secured, have the added strength of the underlying collateral.

Commercial non-real estate loans may be secured by the assets being financed or other tangible or intangible business assets such as accounts receivable, inventory, ownership, enterprise value or commodity interests, and may incorporate a personal or corporate guarantee; however, some short-term loans may be made on an unsecured basis, including a small portfolio of corporate credit cards, generally issued as a part of overall customer relationships.

Commercial real estate – owner occupied loans consist of commercial mortgages on properties where repayment is generally dependent on the cash flow from the ongoing operations and activities of the borrower. Like commercial non-real estate, these loans are primarily made based on the identified cash flows of the borrower, but also have the added strength of the value of underlying real estate collateral.

Commercial real estate – income producing

Commercial real estate – income producing loans consist of loans secured by commercial mortgages on properties where the loan is made to real estate developers or investors and repayment is dependent on the sale, refinance, or income generated from the operation of the property. Properties financed include multifamily, retail, healthcare related facilities, industrial, office, hotel/motel and restaurants, and other commercial properties.

Table of Contents

Construction and land development

Construction and land development loans are made to facilitate the acquisition, development, improvement and construction of both commercial and residential-purpose properties. Such loans are made to builders and investors where repayment is expected to be made from the sale, refinance or operation of the property or to businesses to be used in their business operations. This portfolio also includes residential construction loans and loans secured by raw land not yet under development.

Residential mortgages

Residential mortgages consist of closed-end loans secured by first liens on 1-4 family residential properties. The portfolio includes both fixed and adjustable rate loans, although most longer-term, fixed rate loans originated are generally sold in the secondary mortgage market.

Consumer

Consumer loans include second lien mortgage home loans, home equity lines of credit and nonresidential consumer purpose loans. Nonresidential consumer loans include both direct and indirect loans. Direct nonresidential consumer loans are made to finance the purchase of personal property, including automobiles, recreational vehicles and boats, and for other personal purposes (secured and unsecured), and also include deposit account secured loans. Indirect nonresidential consumer loans include automobile financing provided to the consumer through an agreement with automobile dealerships, though the Company is no longer engaged in this type of lending and the remaining portfolio is in runoff. Consumer loans also include a small portfolio of credit card receivables issued on the basis of applications received through referrals from the Bank’s branches, online and other marketing efforts.

Allowance for Credit Losses

The calculation of the allowance for credit losses is performed using two primary approaches: a collective approach for pools of loans that have similar risk characteristics using a loss rate analysis, and a specific reserve analysis for credits individually evaluated. The allowance for credit losses for collectively evaluated portfolios is developed using multiple Moody’s macroeconomic forecasts applied to internally developed credit models for a two year reasonable and supportable period.

The following tables present activity in the allowance for credit losses by portfolio class for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, as well as the allowance for credit loss by primary calculation method at the end of each period.

In arriving at the allowance for credit losses at March 31, 2025, the Company weighted Moody’s March 2025 baseline economic forecast at 40% and downside mild recessionary S-2 scenario at 60%. The March 2025 baseline scenario maintains a generally optimistic outlook in its assumptions surrounding the drivers of economic growth, with no recession forecasted in the near-term. The S-2 scenario is less optimistic compared to the baseline, with a forecasted mild recession beginning in the second quarter of 2025 and lasting for three quarters.

The allowance for credit losses at March 31, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024, remained relatively flat across most portfolios, with a modest net increase in total reserve coverage to total loans due to the expected impact of stress related to prolonged elevated interest rates and inflation, tariffs and other market conditions impacting our customers.

The allowance for credit loss at March 31, 2024, was up modestly when compared to December 31, 2023, reflecting a relatively consistent credit loss outlook and continued focus on risks that impact certain segments with the Company's loan portfolio. In arriving at the allowance for credit losses at March 31, 2024, the Company weighted the baseline economic forecast at 40% and the downside S-2 mild recession scenario at 60%.

As a part of our loss mitigation efforts, we may provide modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty to improve long-term collectability of the loans and to avoid the need for repossession or foreclosure of collateral. Nonaccrual loans include reportable nonaccruing modified loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty (“MEFDs”) totaling $25.0 million and $20.2 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Total reportable MEFDs, both accruing and nonaccruing, were $95.6 million and $99.5 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The Company had unfunded exposure to borrowers whose loan terms have been modified as a reportable MEFD totaling $4.0 million and $6.9 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

Reportable modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the three months ended March 31, 2025 consisted of weighted average term extensions totaling approximately five months for commercial loans and one year for residential mortgage loans. The weighted average term of other than insignificant payment delays was five months for commercial loans and one month for residential during the three months ended March 31, 2025. Reported term extensions and payment delays are considered more than insignificant when they exceed six months when considering other modifications made in the past twelve months.

Reportable modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty during the three months ended March 31, 2024 consisted of weighted average term extensions totaling approximately eight months for commercial loans, eight years for residential mortgage loans and four years for consumer loans. The weighted average term of other than insignificant payment delays during the three months ended March 31, 2024 was four months for commercial loans.

Table of Contents

Below are the definitions of the Company’s internally assigned grades:

Commercial:

•
Pass – loans properly approved, documented, collateralized, and performing which do not reflect an abnormal credit risk.
•
Pass-Watch – credits in this category are of sufficient risk to cause concern. This category is reserved for credits that display negative performance trends. The “Watch” grade should be regarded as a transition category.
•
Special Mention – a criticized asset category defined as having potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, these potential weaknesses may, at some future date, result in the deterioration of the repayment prospects for the credit or the institution’s credit position. Special mention credits are not considered part of the classified credit categories and do not expose the institution to sufficient risk to warrant adverse classification.
•
Substandard – an asset that is inadequately protected by the current sound worth and paying capacity of the obligor or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the institution will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.
•
Doubtful – an asset that has all the weaknesses inherent in one classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values, highly questionable and improbable.
•
Loss – credits classified as loss are considered uncollectable and are charged off promptly once so classified.

Residential and Consumer:

•
Performing – accruing loans.
•
Nonperforming – loans for which there are good reasons to doubt that payments will be made in full. Nonperforming loans include all loans with nonaccrual status.

4. Investments in Low Income Housing Tax Credit Entities

The Company invests in certain affordable housing project limited partnerships that are qualified low-income housing tax credit developments. These investments are considered variable interest entities for which the Company is not the primary beneficiary and, therefore, are not consolidated. These partnerships generate low-income tax credits that are earned over a 10-year period, beginning with the year the rental activity begins. The Company has elected to use the practical expedient method of amortization, which approximates the proportional amortization method, whereby the investment cost is amortized in proportion to the allocated tax credits over the 10 year tax credit period. Additionally, the Company recognizes deferred taxes on the basis difference of the tax equity investment to reflect the financial impact of other tax benefits (e.g., tax operating losses) not included in the practical expedient amortization. The tax credits, when realized, are reflected in the consolidated statements of income as a reduction of income tax expense. The Company’s investments in affordable housing limited partnerships totaled $37.5 million at both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, with a carry balance net of accumulated amortization included in the other assets line item on our Consolidated Balance Sheets totaling $24.6 million and $25.6 million, respectively, for those same periods. The net impact of the low-income housing tax credit program was not material to our Consolidated Statements of Income or Cash Flows for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

5. Securities Sold under Agreements to Repurchase

Included in short-term borrowings are securities sold under agreements to repurchase that mature daily and are secured by U.S. agency securities totaling $542.5 million and $638.7 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. The Company borrows funds on a secured basis by selling securities under agreements to repurchase, mainly in connection with treasury management services offered to its deposit customers. As the Company maintains effective control over assets sold under agreements to repurchase, the securities continue to be carried on the consolidated statements of financial condition. Because the Company acts as borrower transferring assets to the counterparty, and the agreements mature daily, the Company’s risk is limited.

6. Derivatives

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage risks related to differences in the amount, timing, and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments. The Bank also enters into interest rate derivative agreements as a service to certain qualifying customers. The Bank manages a matched book with respect to these customer derivatives in order to minimize its net interest rate risk exposure resulting from such agreements. In addition, the Bank also enters into risk participation agreements under which it may either sell or buy credit risk associated with a customer’s performance under certain interest rate derivative contracts related to loans in which participation interests have been sold to or purchased from other banks.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company is party to various interest rate swap agreements designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges of the Company’s forecasted variable cash flows for pools of variable rate loans. For each agreement, the Company receives interest at a fixed rate and pays at a variable rate. The Company has terminated certain interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges prior to maturity. The net cash received/paid for these transactions was recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and is being amortized into earnings through the original maturity dates of the respective contracts. The notional amounts of the active interest rate swap agreements at March 31, 2025 expire as follows: $50 million in 2025; $425 million in 2026; $825 million in 2027; $50 million in 2028 and $150 million in 2029.

Fair Value Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate swaps on securities available for sale

The Company is party to forward-starting fixed payer swaps that convert the latter portion of the term of certain available for sale securities to a floating rate. These derivative instruments are designated as fair value hedges of interest rate risk. This strategy provides the Company with a fixed rate coupon during the front-end unhedged tenor of the bonds and results in a floating rate security during the back-end hedged tenor. At March 31, 2025, these single layer instruments have hedge start dates between January 2025 and July 2026, and maturity dates from December 2027 through March 2031. The fair value of the hedged item attributable to interest rate risk is presented in interest income along with the change in the fair value of the hedging instrument.

During the quarter ending March 31, 2025, $163.5 million of fair value hedges became effective with the resulting net earnings recorded in interest income on the "Securities-taxable" line item on the Consolidated Statements of Income. Once effective, fair value hedges synthetically convert the notional portion of the hedged asset to a variable rate over the life of the hedge that is indexed to the federal funds effective rate.

Table of Contents

The hedged available for sale securities are part of closed portfolios of pre-payable commercial mortgage backed securities. In accordance with ASC 815, prepayment risk may be excluded when measuring the change in fair value of such hedged items attributable to interest rate risk under the portfolio layer method. At March 31, 2025, the amortized cost basis of the closed portfolio of pre-payable commercial mortgage backed securities totaled $514.0 million, excluding any basis adjustment. The amount that represents the hedged items was $445.6 million and the basis adjustment associated with the hedged items was a loss totaling $31.9 million.

Derivatives Not Designated as Hedges

Customer interest rate derivative program

The Bank enters into interest rate derivative agreements, primarily rate swaps, with commercial banking customers to facilitate their risk management strategies. The Bank enters into offsetting agreements with unrelated financial institutions, thereby mitigating its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. Because the interest rate derivatives associated with this program do not meet hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the customer derivatives and the offsetting derivatives are recognized directly in earnings.

Risk participation agreements

The Bank also enters into risk participation agreements under which it may either assume or sell credit risk associated with a borrower’s performance under certain interest rate derivative contracts. In those instances where the Bank has assumed credit risk, it is not a direct counterparty to the derivative contract with the borrower and has entered into the risk participation agreement because it is a party to the related loan agreement with the borrower. In those instances in which the Bank has sold credit risk, it is the sole counterparty to the derivative contract with the borrower and has entered into the risk participation agreement because other banks participate in the related loan agreement. The Bank manages its credit risk under risk participation agreements by monitoring the creditworthiness of the borrower, based on the Bank’s normal credit review process.

Mortgage banking derivatives

The Bank also enters into certain derivative agreements as part of its mortgage banking activities. These agreements include interest rate lock commitments on prospective residential mortgage loans and forward commitments to sell loans to investors on either a best efforts or a mandatory delivery basis. The Company uses these forward sales commitments, which may include To Be Announced (“TBA”) security contracts, on the open market to protect the value of its rate locks and mortgage loans held for sale from changes in interest rates and pricing between the origination of the rate lock and the final sale of these loans. These instruments meet the definition of derivative financial instruments and are reflected in other assets and other liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, with changes to the fair value recorded in noninterest income within the secondary mortgage market operations line item in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

The loans sold on a mandatory basis commit the Company to deliver a specific principal amount of mortgage loans to an investor at a specified price, by a specified date. If the Company fails to deliver the amount of mortgages necessary to fulfill the commitment by the specified date, we may be obligated to pay a pair-off fee, based on then-current market prices, to the investor/counterparty to compensate the investor for the shortfall. Mandatory delivery forward commitments include TBA security contracts on the open market to provide protection against changes in interest rates on the locked mortgage pipeline. The Company expects that mandatory delivery contracts, including TBA security contracts, will experience changes in fair value opposite to the changes in the fair value of derivative loan commitments. Certain assumptions, including pull through rates and rate lock periods, are used in managing the existing and future hedges. The accuracy of underlying assumptions could impact the ultimate effectiveness of any hedging strategies.

Forward commitments under best effort contracts commit the Company to deliver a specific individual mortgage loan to an investor if the loan to the underlying borrower closes. Generally, best efforts cash contracts have no pair-off risk regardless of market movement. The price the investor will pay the seller for an individual loan is specified prior to the loan being funded, generally the same day the Company enters into the interest rate lock commitment with the potential borrower. The Company expects that these best efforts forward loan sale commitments will experience a net neutral shift in fair value with related derivative loan commitments.

At the closing of the loan, the rate lock commitment derivative expires and the Company generally records a loan held for sale at fair value under the election of fair value option.

Customer foreign exchange forward contract derivatives

The Company enters into foreign exchange forward derivative agreements, primarily forward foreign currency contracts, with commercial banking customers to facilitate their risk management strategies. The Bank manages its risk exposure from such

transactions by entering into offsetting agreements with unrelated financial institutions. The Bank has not elected to designate these foreign exchange forward contract derivatives as hedges; as such, changes in the fair value of both the customer derivatives and the offsetting derivatives are recognized directly in earnings.

Visa Class B derivative contract

The Company is a member of Visa USA. In 2018, the Company sold the majority of its Visa Class B holdings, at which time it entered into a derivative agreement with the purchaser whereby the Company will make or receive cash payments whenever the conversion ratio of the Visa Class B shares into Visa Class A shares is adjusted. The conversion ratio changes when Visa deposits funds to a litigation escrow established by Visa to pay settlements for certain litigation, for which Visa is indemnified by Visa USA members. The Company is also required to make periodic financing payments to the purchaser until all of Visa’s covered litigation matters are resolved. Thus, the derivative contract extends until the end of Visa’s covered litigation matters, the timing of which is uncertain.

During the second quarter of 2024, Visa allowed Class B holders to convert some but not all of their Class B shares to Class A shares. As a result of this conversion event, the Bank and its counterparty agreed to modify the transaction agreement to reflect the partial exchange and include certain provisions related to conversion rate changes. The conversion plan approved by Visa requires a minimum of 12 months before another exchange event and thus extends the expected time for a full resolution of the matter.

The contract includes a contingent accelerated termination clause based on the credit ratings of the Company. The fair value of the liability associated with this contract was $2.1 million at both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Refer to Note 15 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments for discussion of the valuation inputs and process for this derivative liability.

Credit Risk-Related Contingent Features

Certain of the Bank’s derivative instruments contain provisions allowing the financial institution counterparty to terminate the contracts in certain circumstances, such as the downgrade of the Bank’s credit ratings below specified levels, a default by the Bank on its indebtedness, or the failure of the Bank to maintain specified minimum regulatory capital ratios or its regulatory status as a well-capitalized institution. These derivative agreements also contain provisions regarding the posting of collateral by each party. At March 31, 2025, the Company was not in violation of any such provisions. The aggregate fair value of derivative instruments with credit risk-related contingent features that were in a net liability position at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 was $28.2 million and $39.1 million, respectively, for which the Company had posted collateral of $28.3 million and $38.0 million, respectively.

Offsetting Assets and Liabilities

The Bank’s derivative instruments with certain counterparties contain legally enforceable netting provisions that allow for net settlement of multiple transactions to a single amount, which may be positive, negative, or zero. Agreements with certain bilateral counterparties require both parties to maintain collateral in the event that the fair values of derivative instruments exceed established

exposure thresholds. For centrally cleared derivatives, the Company is subject to initial margin posting and daily variation margin exchange with the central clearinghouses. Offsetting information in regards to all derivative assets and liabilities, including accrued interest, subject to these master netting agreements at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 is presented in the following tables.

7. Stockholders’ Equity

Common Shares Outstanding

Common shares outstanding excludes treasury shares totaling 6.8 and 6.7 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, with a first-in-first-out cost basis of $277.2 million and $264.1 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively. Shares outstanding also excludes unvested restricted share awards totaling 0.1 million at both March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.

Stock Buyback Programs

On December 9, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a stock buyback program, effective January 1, 2025, whereby the Company is authorized to repurchase up to approximately 4.3 million shares of its common stock through the program’s expiration date of December 31, 2026. The program allows the Company to repurchase its common shares in the open market, by block purchase, through accelerated share repurchase programs, in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, in one or more transactions. The Company is not obligated to purchase any shares under this program, and the Board of Directors has the ability to terminate or amend the program at any time prior to the expiration date. During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company repurchased 350,000 shares of its common stock at an average cost of $59.28 per share, inclusive of commissions, under this program.

Prior to its expiration on December 31, 2024, the Company had in place a stock repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors on January 26, 2023, whereby the Company was authorized to repurchase up to approximately 4.3 million shares of its outstanding common stock. The program allowed the Company to repurchase its common shares in the open market, by block purchase, through accelerated share repurchase programs, in privately negotiated transactions, or otherwise, in one or more transactions from time to time, depending on market conditions and other factors, and in accordance with applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. There were no shares purchased under this plan during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income or Loss (“AOCI”) is reported as a component of stockholders’ equity. AOCI can include, among other items, unrealized holding gains and losses on securities available for sale (“AFS”), including the Company’s share of unrealized gains and losses reported by a partnership accounted for under the equity method, gains and losses associated with pension or other post-retirement benefits that are not recognized immediately as a component of net periodic benefit cost, and gains and losses on derivative instruments that are designated as, and qualify as, cash flow hedges. Net unrealized gains and losses on AFS securities reclassified as securities held to maturity (“HTM”) also continue to be reported as a component of AOCI and will be amortized over the estimated remaining life of the securities as an adjustment to interest income. Subject to certain thresholds, unrealized losses on employee benefit plans will be reclassified into income as pension and post-retirement costs are recognized over the remaining service period of plan participants. Accumulated gains or losses on cash flow hedges of variable rate loans described in Note 6 - Derivatives will be reclassified into income over the life of the hedge. Accumulated other comprehensive loss resulting from terminated interest rate swaps are being amortized over the remaining maturities of the designated instruments. Gains and losses within AOCI are net of deferred income taxes, where applicable.

The following table shows the line items in the consolidated statements of income affected by amounts reclassified from AOCI.

10. Earnings Per Common Share

The Company calculates earnings per common share using the two-class method. The two-class method allocates net income to each class of common stock and participating security according to common dividends declared and participation rights in undistributed earnings. Participating securities consist of nonvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents.

A summary of the information used in the computation of earnings per common share follows.

Potential common shares consist of nonvested performance-based awards, nonvested restricted stock units, and restricted share awards deferred under the Company’s nonqualified deferred compensation plan. These potential common shares do not enter into the calculation of diluted earnings per share if the impact would be antidilutive, i.e., increase earnings per share or reduce a loss per share. The weighted average of potentially dilutive common shares that were anti-dilutive totaled 3,188 for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 43,493 for the three months ended March 31, 2024, and were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the respective periods.

11. Segment Reporting

U.S. GAAP requires that information be reported about a company’s operating segments using a “management approach.” Reportable segments are identified in these standards as those revenue-producing components for which discrete financial information is produced internally and which are subject to evaluation by our chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources to segments. The Company has identified the Capital Committee as the chief operating decision maker. Consistent with the Company’s strategy that is focused on providing a consistent package of banking products and services across all markets, the Company has identified its overall banking operations as its only reportable segment. There have been no changes in the basis of segmentation or basis of measurement of segment profit or loss since our last annual filing as of December 31, 2024.

Because the overall banking operations comprise substantially all of the Company’s consolidated operations, no separate financial segment disclosures are presented. The significant segment expenses included in net income are presented in the financial statement captions shown on the face of the Consolidated Statements of Income and in Note 9 – Other Noninterest Expense, and align materially with those reported to the Capital Committee. There are no other segment items that are required to reconcile expenses included in net income to significant expenses reviewed by the Capital Committee.

12. Retirement Plans

The Company offers a qualified defined benefit pension plan, the Hancock Whitney Corporation Pension Plan and Trust Agreement (“Pension Plan”), that covers certain eligible associates and is closed to new entrants. The Company makes contributions to the Pension Plan in amounts sufficient to meet funding requirements set forth in federal employee benefit and tax laws, plus such additional amounts as the Company may determine to be appropriate. The Company made no contributions to the pension plan during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, and does no t anticipate being required to make a contribution during 2025. The Company also sponsors a nonqualified defined benefit plan covering certain associates, under which accrued benefits were frozen and no future benefits are accrued under this plan.

The Company sponsors defined benefit post-retirement plans for certain associates that provide health care and life insurance benefits. These plans are closed to new entrants.

The following table shows the components of net periodic benefit cost included in expense for the periods indicated.

﻿ |  | Three Months Ended March 31, |

Net periodic benefit cost |  | $ | (2,253 | ) |  | $ | (2,814 | ) |  | $ | (22 | ) |  | $ | (22 | )

Service cost is reflected in the “Benefit expense” line item of the Consolidated Statements of Income. Components other than service cost in the in the table above are reflected in “Net other retirement expense” in Note 9 – Other Noninterest Expense, and reported in the “Other expense” line item of the Consolidated Statements of Income.

Additional information related to the Company’s retirement plans is provided in Note 17 to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

13. Share-Based Payment Arrangements

The Company maintains incentive compensation plans that provide for awards of share-based compensation to employees and directors. These plans have been approved by the Company’s shareholders. Detailed descriptions of these plans were included in Note 18 to the consolidated financial statements in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

Table of Contents

The Company’s restricted and performance-based share awards to certain employees and directors are subject to service requirements. A summary of the status of the Company’s nonvested restricted stock units and restricted and performance-based share awards at March 31, 2025 are presented in the following table.

|  |  |  |  | Weighted |
|  |  |  |  | Average |
|  | Number of |  |  | Grant Date |
|  | Shares |  |  | Fair Value |
Nonvested at January 1, 2025 |  |  | 1,391,236 |  |  | $ | 46.14 |
Granted |  |  | 515,588 |  |  |  | 56.32 |
Vested |  |  | (332,659 | ) |  |  | 49.65 |
Forfeited |  |  | (17,542 | ) |  |  | 47.58 |
Nonvested at March 31, 2025 |  |  | 1,556,623 |  |  | $ | 48.75 |

At March 31, 2025, there was $66.5 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested restricted and performance share awards and units expected to vest in the future. This compensation is expected to be recognized in expense over a weighted average period of 3.4 years. The total fair value of shares that vested during the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $16.3 million.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company granted 424,883 restricted stock units (RSUs) to certain eligible employees. Unlike restricted share awards (RSAs), the holders of unvested restricted stock units have no rights as a shareholder of the Company, including voting or dividend rights. The Company has elected to award dividend equivalents on each restricted stock unit not deferred under the Company's nonqualified deferred compensation plan. Such dividend equivalents are forfeited should the employee terminate employment prior to the vesting of the RSU.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Company granted to key members of executive management 26,292 performance share awards subject to a total shareholder return (“TSR”) performance metric with a grant date fair value of $66.84 per share. The fair value of the performance share units subject to TSR at the grant date was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation method. The number of performance share units subject to TSR that ultimately vest at the end of the three-year performance period, if any, will be based on the relative rank of the Company’s three-year TSR among the TSRs of a peer group of 49 regional banks. The Company also granted 25,521 performance share awards subject to a return on average assets (ROAA) performance metric and 25,521 performance share awards subject to a return on average tangible common equity (ROATCE) performance metric with a grant date fair value of $52.02 per share for both performance share awards. The number of performance shares subject to ROAA and ROTCE that ultimately vest if any, will be based on the relative rank of the Company’s three-year ROAA and ROATCE relative the KBW Regional Bank index. The maximum number of performance share units that could vest is 200% of the target award. Compensation expense for these performance shares is recognized on a straight-line basis over the three-year service period.

14. Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Bank enters into financial instruments, such as commitments to extend credit and letters of credit, to meet the financing needs of its customers. Such instruments are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements until they are funded, although they expose the Bank to varying degrees of credit risk and interest rate risk in much the same way as funded loans. Under regulatory capital guidelines, the Company and Bank must include unfunded commitments meeting certain criteria in risk-weighted capital calculations.

Commitments to extend credit include revolving commercial credit lines, nonrevolving loan commitments issued mainly to finance the acquisition and development or construction of real property or equipment, and credit card and personal credit lines. The availability of funds under commercial credit lines and loan commitments generally depends on whether the borrower continues to meet credit standards established in the underlying contract and other contractual conditions. Loan commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee by the borrower. Credit card and personal credit lines are generally subject to cancellation if the borrower’s credit quality deteriorates. A number of commercial and personal credit lines are used only partially or, in some cases, not at all before they expire, and the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements of the Company.

A substantial majority of the letters of credit are standby agreements that obligate the Bank to fulfill a customer’s financial commitments to a third party if the customer is unable to perform. The Bank issues standby letters of credit primarily to provide credit enhancement to its customers’ other commercial or public financing arrangements and to help them demonstrate financial capacity to vendors of essential goods and services.

The contractual amounts of these instruments reflect the Company’s exposure to credit risk. The Company undertakes the same credit evaluation in making loan commitments and assuming conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments and may

require collateral or other credit support. The Company had a reserve for unfunded lending commitments of $25.0 million and $24.1 million at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively.

The following table presents a summary of the Company’s off-balance sheet financial instruments as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024:

Legal Proceedings

The Company is party to various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Management does not believe that loss contingencies, if any, arising from pending litigation and regulatory matters will have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial position or liquidity of the Company.

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Special Assessment

In November 2023, the FDIC approved a final rule to implement a special deposit insurance assessment to recover losses to the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) arising from the full protection of uninsured depositors under the systemic risk exception following the receiverships of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank in the spring of 2023. To-date, the Company has expensed $29.7 million related to this special assessment based loss estimate information provided by the FDIC.

The loss estimates resulting from the failures of these institutions may be subject to further change pending the projected and actual outcome of loss share agreements, joint ventures, and outstanding litigation. The exact amount of losses incurred will not be determined until the FDIC terminates the receiverships of these banks; therefore, the Company's exact exposure for FDIC special assessment remains unknown.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) defines fair value as the exchange price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The FASB’s guidance also establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to these valuation techniques used to measure fair value, giving preference to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (“level 1”) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs such as a reporting entity’s own data (“level 3”). Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, observable inputs other than quoted prices, such as interest rates and yield curves, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

(1) For further disaggregation of derivative assets and liabilities, see Note 6 - Derivatives.

Securities classified as level 2 include obligations of U.S. Government agencies and U.S. Government-sponsored agencies, including U.S. Treasury securities, residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations that are issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies, and state and municipal bonds. The level 2 fair value measurements for investment securities are obtained quarterly from a third-party pricing service that uses industry-standard pricing models. Substantially all of the model inputs are observable in the marketplace or can be supported by observable data.

The Company invests only in securities of investment grade quality with a targeted duration, for the overall portfolio, generally between two and five and a half years. Company policies generally limit investments to U.S. agency securities and municipal securities determined to be investment grade according to an internally generated score which generally includes a rating of not less than “Baa” or its equivalent by a nationally recognized statistical rating agency.

Loans held for sale consist of residential mortgage loans carried under the fair value option. The fair value for these instruments is classified as level 2 based on market prices obtained from potential buyers.

For the Company’s derivative financial instruments designated as hedges and those under the customer interest rate program, the fair value is obtained from a third-party pricing service that uses an industry-standard discounted cash flow model that relies on inputs,

Table of Contents

Overnight Index swap rate curves and SOFR swap curves (where applicable), all observable in the marketplace. To comply with the accounting guidance, credit valuation adjustments are incorporated in the fair values to appropriately reflect nonperformance risk for both the Company and the counterparties. Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value these derivative instruments fall within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit value adjustments utilize level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads. The Company has determined that the impact of the credit valuation adjustments is not significant to the overall valuation of these derivatives. As a result, the Company has classified its derivative valuations for these instruments in level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s policy is to measure counterparty credit risk quarterly for derivative instruments, which are all subject to master netting arrangements, consistent with how market participants would price the net risk exposure at the measurement date.

The Company also has certain derivative instruments associated with the Bank’s mortgage-banking activities. These derivative instruments include interest rate lock commitments on prospective residential mortgage loans and forward commitments to sell these loans to investors on a best efforts delivery basis and To Be Announced securities for mandatory delivery contracts. The fair value of these derivative instruments is measured using observable market prices for similar instruments and is classified as a level 2 measurement.

The Company’s level 3 liability consists of a derivative contract with the purchaser of 192,163 shares of Visa Class B common stock. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company retains the risks associated with the ultimate conversion of the Visa Class B common shares into shares of Visa Class A common stock, such that the counterparty will be compensated for any dilutive adjustments to the conversion ratio and the Company will be compensated for any anti-dilutive adjustments to the ratio. The agreement also requires periodic payments by the Company to the counterparty calculated by reference to the market price of Visa Class A common shares at the time of sale and a fixed rate of interest that steps up once after the eighth scheduled quarterly payment. The fair value of the liability is determined using a discounted cash flow methodology. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement are the Company’s own assumptions about estimated changes in the conversion rate of the Visa Class B common shares into Visa Class A common shares, the date on which such conversion is expected to occur and the estimated growth rate of the Visa Class A common share price. Refer to Note 6 – Derivatives for information about the derivative contract with the counterparty.

The Company believes its valuation methods for its assets and liabilities carried at fair value are appropriate; however, the use of different methodologies or assumptions, particularly as applied to level 3 assets and liabilities, could have a material effect on the computation of their estimated fair values.

Changes in Level 3 Fair Value Measurements and Quantitative Information about Level 3 Fair Value Measurements

The table below presents a rollforward of the amounts on the consolidated balance sheets for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and the year ended December 31, 2024 for financial instruments of a material nature that are classified within level 3 of the fair value hierarchy and are measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The Company’s policy is to recognize transfers between valuation hierarchy levels as of the end of a reporting period.

Fair Value of Assets Measured on a Nonrecurring Basis

Certain assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Collateral-dependent loans individually evaluated for credit loss loans are level 2 assets measured at the fair value of the underlying collateral based on independent third-party appraisals that take into consideration market-based information such as recent sales activity for similar assets in the property’s market.

Other real estate owned and foreclosed assets, including both foreclosed property and surplus banking property, are level 3 assets that are adjusted to fair value, less estimated selling costs, upon transfer from loans or property and equipment. Subsequently, other real estate owned and foreclosed assets are carried at the lower of carrying value or fair value less estimated selling costs. Fair values are determined by sales agreement or third-party appraisals as discounted for estimated selling costs, information from comparable sales, and marketability of the assets.

The fair value information presented below is not as of the period end, rather it was as of the date the fair value adjustment was recorded during the twelve months for each of the dates presented below, and excludes nonrecurring fair value measurements of assets no longer on the balance sheet.

The following tables present the Company’s financial assets that are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis for each of the fair value hierarchy levels.

Accounting guidance from the FASB requires the disclosure of estimated fair value information about certain on- and off-balance sheet financial instruments, including those financial instruments that are not measured and reported at fair value on a recurring basis. The significant methods and assumptions used by the Company to estimate the fair value of financial instruments are discussed below.

Cash, Short-Term Investments and Federal Funds Sold – For these short-term instruments, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Securities – The fair value measurement for securities available for sale is discussed earlier in this note. The same measurement techniques were applied to the valuation of securities held to maturity.

Loans, Net – The fair value measurement for certain collateral dependent loans that are individually evaluated for credit loss was described earlier in this note. For the remaining portfolio, fair values were generally determined by discounting scheduled cash flows using discount rates determined with reference to current market rates at which loans with similar terms would be made to borrowers of similar credit quality.

Loans Held for Sale – These loans are either carried under the fair value option or at the lower of cost or market. Given the short duration of these instruments, the carrying amount is considered a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Deposits – The accounting guidance requires that the fair value of deposits with no stated maturity, such as noninterest-bearing demand deposits, interest-bearing checking and savings accounts, be assigned fair values equal to amounts payable upon demand (“carrying amounts”). The fair value of fixed maturity certificates of deposit is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities.

Federal Funds Purchased and Securities Sold under Agreements to Repurchase – For these short-term liabilities, the carrying amount is a reasonable estimate of fair value.

Long-Term Debt – The fair value is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows using current market rates at which debt with similar terms could be obtained.

Derivative Financial Instruments – The fair value measurement for derivative financial instruments is described earlier in this note.

16. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

There were no new accounting standards adopted during the during the three months ended March 31, 2025.

Accounting Standards Issued But Not Yet Adopted

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures," to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures by requiring additional categories of information about federal, state, and foreign income taxes to be included in the rate reconciliation and by requiring more detail to be disclosed on certain reconciling item categories that meet a quantitative threshold. Additionally, the amendment requires all entities to annually disclose disaggregated information about income taxes paid using specific quantitative thresholds and income tax expense (or benefit) from continuing operations. The amendments in this update are effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Entities should apply the amendments on a prospective basis and retrospective application is permitted. As the update contains only amendments to disclosure requirements, adoption will have no impact to the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive Income – Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40),” to improve the disclosures about a public business entity’s expenses in commonly presented expense captions. The amendments in this update require disclosure of specified information about certain costs and expenses in the notes to financial statements. Disclosure requirements also include a qualitative description of the amounts remaining in relevant expense captions that are not separately disaggregated quantitatively, among other items. An entity is not precluded from providing additional voluntary disclosures that may provide investors with additional decision-useful information. This update, as amended, is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted. The amendments in this update should be applied either prospectively to financial statements issued for reporting periods after the effective date of this update, or retrospectively to any or all prior periods presented in the financial statements. The Company is currently assessing the provisions of this guidance. As the update contains only amendments to disclosure requirements, adoption will have no impact to the Company’s consolidated results of operations or financial condition.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The objective of this discussion and analysis is to provide material information relevant to the assessment of the financial condition and results of operations of Hancock Whitney Corporation and its subsidiaries during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and selected comparable prior periods, including an evaluation of the amounts and certainty of cash flows from operations and outside sources. This discussion and analysis is intended to highlight and supplement financial and operating data and information presented elsewhere in this report, including the consolidated financial statements and related notes. The discussion contains forward-looking statements within the meaning and protections of section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, our actual results may differ from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements we make in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in other reports or documents that we file from time to time with the SEC include, but are not limited to, the following:

•
general economic and business conditions in our local markets, including conditions affecting employment levels, interest rates, inflation, the threat of recession, volatile equity capital markets, property and casualty insurance costs, collateral values, customer income, creditworthiness and confidence, spending and savings that may affect customer bankruptcies, defaults, charge-offs and deposit activity; and the impact of the foregoing on customer behavior (including the velocity and levels of deposit withdrawals and loan repayment);
•
uncertainties surrounding geopolitical events, trade policy, taxation policy, and monetary policy which continue to impact the outlook for future economic growth; impacts from recently announced U.S. imposition of tariffs against China, Mexico, Canada and other nations; consideration of responsive actions by these nations, including retaliatory tariffs, or the expansion of import fees and tariffs among a larger group of nations is bringing greater ambiguity to the outlook for future economic growth, including reduced consumer spending, lower economic growth or recession, reduced demand for U.S. exports, disruptions to supply chains, impacts from decreased international tourism, decreased demand for other banking products and services, and negative credit quality developments arising from the foregoing or other factors;
•
adverse developments in the banking industry highlighted by high-profile bank failures and the potential impact of such developments on customer confidence, liquidity and regulatory responses to these developments (including increases in the cost of our deposit insurance assessments), the Company's ability to effectively manage its liquidity risk and any growth plans, and the availability of capital and funding;
•
balance sheet and revenue growth expectations may differ from actual results;
•
the risk that our provision for credit losses may be inadequate or may be negatively affected by credit risk exposure;
•
loan growth expectations;
•
management’s predictions about charge-offs;
•
fluctuations in commercial and residential real estate values, especially as they relate to the value of collateral supporting the Company's loans;
•
the risk that our enterprise risk management framework may not identify or address risks adequately, which may result in unexpected losses;
•
the impact of current and future business combinations upon our performance and financial condition including our ability to successfully integrate the businesses;
•
deposit trends, including growth, pricing and betas;
•
credit quality trends;
•
changes in interest rates, including actions taken by the Federal Reserve Board and the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on our financial projections, models and guidance;
•
net interest margin trends, including the impact of ongoing elevated interest rates;
•
changes in the cost and availability of funding due to changes in the deposit and credit markets;
•
success of revenue-generating and cost reducing initiatives;
•
future expense levels;
•
changes in expense to revenue (efficiency ratio), including the risk that we may not realize and/or sustain benefits from efficiency and growth initiatives or that we may not be able to realize cost savings or revenue benefits in the time period expected, which could negatively affect our future profitability;
•
the effectiveness of derivative financial instruments and hedging activities to manage risks;
•
risks related to our reliance on third parties to provide key components of our business infrastructure, including the risks related to disruptions in services or financial difficulties of a third-party vendor;
•
risks related to potential claims, damages, penalties, fines and reputational damage resulting from pending or future litigation, regulatory proceedings or enforcement actions;

OVERVIEW

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations include non-GAAP measures used to describe our performance. These non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered on a standalone basis or as a substitute for analyses of financial condition and results as reported under GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized and therefore, it may not be possible to compare these measures with other companies that present measures having the same or similar names. These disclosures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP.

A reconciliation of those measures to GAAP measures are provided in the Consolidated Financial Results table later in this item. The following is a summary of these non-GAAP measures and an explanation as to why they are deemed useful.

Consistent with the provisions of subpart 229.1400 of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation S-K, “Disclosures by Bank and Savings and Loan Registrants,” we present net interest income, net interest margin and efficiency ratios on a fully taxable equivalent ("te") basis. The te basis adjusts for the tax-favored status of net interest income from certain loans and investments using a statutory federal tax rate of 21% to increase tax-exempt interest income to a taxable equivalent basis. We believe this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income, and that it enhances comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources.

We present certain additional non-GAAP financial measures to assist the reader with a better understanding of the Company’s performance period over period, and to provide investors with assistance in understanding the success management has experienced in executing its strategic initiatives. The Company highlights certain items that are outside of our principal business and/or are not indicative of forward-looking trends in supplemental disclosure items below our GAAP financial data and presents certain "Adjusted" ratios that exclude these disclosed items. These adjusted ratios provide management and the reader with a measure that may be more indicative of forward-looking trends in our business, as well as demonstrates the effects of significant gains or losses and changes.

We define Adjusted Pre-Provision Net Revenue as net income excluding provision expense and income tax expense, plus the taxable equivalent adjustment (as defined above), less supplemental disclosure items (as defined above). Management believes that adjusted pre-provision net revenue is a useful financial measure because it enables investors and others to assess the Company’s ability to generate capital to cover credit losses through a credit cycle. We define Adjusted Revenue as net interest income (te) and noninterest income less supplemental disclosure items. We define Adjusted Noninterest Expense as noninterest expense less supplemental disclosure items. We define our Efficiency Ratio as noninterest expense to total net interest income (te) and noninterest income, excluding amortization of purchased intangibles and supplemental disclosure items, if applicable. Management believes adjusted revenue, adjusted noninterest expense and the efficiency ratio are useful measures as they provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations and enhance comparability with prior periods.

Current Economic Environment

The first quarter of 2025 brought notable economic shifts as the new presidential administration swiftly began implementing its second-term agenda. Tariffs quickly became the most influential factor, creating cost pressures across supply chains and introducing additional risk of fallout from retaliatory actions from key trading partners. Concerns over the pace and scale of tariffs and federal spending cuts have created increased uncertainty as to near and long-term effects that led to volatility in equity markets and other economic impacts. Real gross domestic product (GDP), a key metric of the pace of economic activity, contracted 0.3% on an annualized basis in the first quarter of 2025. Longer-term interest rates experienced volatility, with the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield ranging from 4.1% to nearly 4.8% during the period as the market responded to changing edicts on tariffs, among other economic indicators and developments. However, the labor market showed signs of resilience, with unemployment rising only modestly to 4.2% in March 2025, and inflation markers trended favorably through the quarter, receding to 2.4% in March. The Federal Reserve remains committed to its dual mandate of maximum employment and price stability. Because of the substantial uncertainty over economic consequences of tariffs and other initiatives of the current administration, the Federal Reserve’s policy committee has made clear its intention to take a wait and see approach to further changes in monetary policy.

Within the financial services industry, inflationary pressures and prolonged elevated interest rates continue to present headwinds in terms of loan demand and deposit behavior. Within our markets, loan growth remains tempered due in part to demand, the credit health of borrowers, and a strategic reduction of exposure to syndicated credits as we focus on full-service relationships. Funding costs have further benefited from recent interest rate cuts, contributing to net interest margin expansion during the first quarter of 2025.

Economic Outlook

We utilize economic forecasts produced by Moody’s Analytics (Moody’s) that provide various scenarios to assist in the development of our economic outlook. This outlook discussion utilizes the March 2025 Moody’s forecast, the most current available at March 31, 2025. The forecasts are anchored on a baseline forecast scenario, which Moody’s defines as the “most likely outcome” of where the economy is headed based on current conditions. Several upside and downside scenarios are produced that are derived from the baseline scenario and incorporate varying degrees of favorable and unfavorable adjustments to economic indicators and circumstances as compared to the baseline.

The baseline scenario continues to maintain an overall optimistic tenor with respect to economic outcomes, though recent progress in reducing inflation has slowed and potential inflationary pressures from the current administration’s fiscal, tariff and immigration actions and plans suggest a longer road to normalization than previously expected. Key assumptions within the March 2025 baseline forecast include the following: (1) the Federal Reserve will issue rate cuts of 25 basis points each in September and December 2025, with further gradual reductions in 2026 until the benchmark rate reaches 3%; (2) though the labor market has softened, the economy remains near full-employment with the current unemployment rate of 4%, and is forecasted to rise only modestly to 4.1% in 2025 and 4.3% through 2027 before improving slightly to 4.2% in 2028; (3) GDP will display modest annual below-trend growth in the coming years of 1.9% in 2025, 1.7% in 2026, and 2.3% in 2027; and, (4) the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield will remain elevated near its current rate, and is forecasted to average 4.4% in 2025 and only gradually decline through the end of the decade.

The S-2 scenario presents a downside alternative to the baseline. The S-2 scenario assumes the impacts of current administration tariffs and immigrations actions and plans on the economy are worse than expected, causing inflation to rise in the second quarter of 2025. Further, elevated interest rates weaken credit-sensitive spending more than anticipated and there is longer and farther-reaching disturbance from geopolitical conflict. The scenario assumes the unemployment rate will rise considerably to 5.5% in 2025 and 6.5% in 2026 (peaking at 7.1% in the first quarter) before improving to 4.4% in 2027 and 4.2% in 2028. As a result of these pressures, the U.S. falls into a mild recession beginning in the second quarter of 2025 that lasts for three quarters, with the stock market contracting 20% and a peak-to-trough decline in GDP of 1%. Despite the onset of the recession, rising inflation prompts the Federal Reserve to raise its benchmark rate in the second quarter of 2025 before resuming easement in the third quarter of 2025.

Management has deemed certain assumptions underlying the S-2 scenario to be somewhat more likely to occur in the near term than those underlying the baseline scenario, and as such, the baseline scenario and the S-2 scenario were given probability weightings of 40% and 60%, respectively, in the calculation of our allowance for credit losses calculation at March 31, 2025.

The credit loss outlook for our portfolio as a whole has not changed materially since December 31, 2024. We continue to closely monitor our portfolio for customers that are sensitive to prolonged inflation, the elevated interest rate environment, tariffs and/or other economic circumstances that may impact credit quality. We have adjusted our expected full year 2025 loan growth percentage downward, now forecasted to be in the low single digits relative to December 31, 2024, reflecting current client sentiment.

Recent and expected changes in fiscal and other policies with the current administration create significant uncertainty as to the impact on the U.S and global economies. The effects of continued elevated inflation, and the Federal Reserve’s actions to counter these effects, as well as to respond to other economic concerns, could reduce economic growth in the near term. The full extent of the impact of these and other influential factors are uncertain and may have an adverse effect on the U.S. economy, including the possibility of an economic recession or slower growth in the near or midterm.

Highlights of the First Quarter 2025

We reported net income for the first quarter of 2025 of $119.5 million, or $1.38 per diluted common share, compared to $122.1 million, or $1.40 per diluted common share, in the fourth quarter of 2024 and $108.6 million, or $1.24 per diluted common share, in the first quarter of 2024. The first quarter of 2024 included a $3.8 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, supplemental disclosure item. There were no supplemental disclosure items in the first quarter of 2025 or the fourth quarter of 2024.

First quarter 2025 results compared to fourth quarter 2024:

•
Net income of $119.5 million, or $1.38 per diluted share
•
Pre-provision net revenue, a non-GAAP measure, totaled $162.4 million, compared to $165.2 million
•
Period-end loans totaled $23.1 billion, down $201.3 million, or 1%
•
Criticized commercial loans decreased and nonaccrual loans increased; annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans decreased to 0.18% compared to 0.20%
•
Allowance for credit losses coverage to total loans of 1.49%, up 2 basis points (bps)

Table of Contents

•
Period-end deposits totaled $29.2 billion, down $298.1 million, or 1%
•
Net interest margin of 3.43%, up 2 bps from 3.41%
•
Common equity tier 1 ratio of 14.48%, up 34 bps, and tangible common equity ratio of 10.01%, up 54 bps
•
Efficiency ratio, a non-GAAP measure, was 55.22%, compared to 54.46%

Our results for the first quarter of 2025 reflect a strong start to the year. Our net interest margin expanded, fee income grew, and solid earnings facilitated substantial growth in our capital ratios. We enhanced shareholder value through an increased common share dividend and share repurchases during the quarter. We continue to maintain a robust allowance for credit loss coverage to total loans of 1.49% in light of the current credit and economic environment. We remain focused on balance sheet optimization and effective expense control, and believe we are well positioned to continue to enhance shareholder value. We continued to execute on our organic growth plan with the addition of four bankers and the selection of four of the five planned locations in the northern Dallas metropolitan area. We look forward to continued progress as we carry out our multi-year growth plan and add the Sabal Trust Company associates and clients to our organization.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net Interest Income

Net interest income (te) for the first quarter of 2025 was $272.7 million, down $3.6 million, or 1%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, and up $3.7 million, or 1%, from the comparable period in 2024.

The $3.6 million decrease in net interest income (te) compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 is largely attributable to two fewer accrual days, lower loan yields and volume, largely offset by a decrease in deposit costs and volume. Interest income (te) was down $18.9 million, primarily due to lower loan and short-term investment yields and volumes, and two fewer accrual days, partially offset by higher securities yields. Interest income on securities for the first quarter of 2025 includes $0.7 million of interest associated with certain fair value hedges that became effective during the quarter, favorably impacting the securities yield by 4 bps. Interest expense was down $15.3 million, largely due to lower cost of deposits, two fewer accrual days, and lower volumes of both deposits and borrowings. The net interest margin for the first quarter of 2025 was 3.43%, up 2 bps from 3.41% in the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase in the net interest margin from the prior quarter was largely driven by lower deposit costs, higher securities yields, and a more favorable funding mix, partially offset by lower loan yields.

The $3.7 million increase in net interest income (te) compared to the first quarter of 2024 reflects a decline in prevailing rates on interest-bearing liabilities outpacing lower yields on interest earning assets, partially offset by the impact of one less accrual day. Interest income (te) decreased $26.4 million, driven largely by lower yields on loans and loan contraction, partially offset by higher yields on mortgage-backed securities. Interest expense decreased $30.1 million, driven largely by lower rates on deposits, a decrease in the volume of deposits, including a $510.6 million decrease in average brokered deposits, and a decrease in the level of short-term borrowings. The net interest margin for the first quarter of 2025 of 3.43% increased 11 bps from 3.32% for the first quarter of 2024. The year-over-year improvement in the net interest margin also reflects a decrease in the cost of funds outpacing the decline in yield on earning assets. The rate on interest-bearing liabilities was down 52 bps from the first quarter of 2024, primarily driven by the impact of interest rate movement on the overall cost of funds that also fostered some shifting to a more favorable mix of retail deposits. The cost of funds further benefited from changes in funding mix as all brokered deposits matured and short-term FHLB borrowings were repaid during the period. The yield on average earning assets was down 22 bps, primarily driven by a 32 bp decline in the loan yield, partially offset by a 22 bp increase in securities yields as maturing securities were reinvested into instruments with higher yields, and the favorable impact from the fair value hedges described above.

We expect our full year 2025 net interest income (te) to be up between 3% to 4% when compared to 2024; with modest and consistent expansion in net interest margin throughout 2025. The forecasted improvement is expected to be driven by lower deposit costs, low single-digit loan growth and continued repricing of cash flows from both the securities and fixed rate loan portfolios. Our guidance assumes 25 bp rate cuts by the Federal Reserve in June, July and October 2025, however, modeling no rate cuts for 2025 yielded similar results.

The following tables detail the components of our net interest income (te) and net interest margin.

Provision for Credit Losses

During the first quarter of 2025, we recorded a provision for credit losses of $10.5 million, compared to $11.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 and $13.0 million in the first quarter of 2024. The provision for credit loss in the first quarter of 2025 included net charge-offs of $10.3 million and a reserve build of $0.2 million, compared to net charge-offs of $11.7 million and a reserve build of $0.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2024. While the provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2025 was down slightly from the previous period, the allowance coverage to total loans reflected a slight increase. The first quarter of 2024 provision for credit loss included net charge-offs of $9.0 million and a reserve build of $4.0 million.

Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans in the first quarter of 2025 were 0.18%, down from 0.20%, in the fourth quarter of 2024, and up from 0.15% in the first quarter of 2024. Net charge-offs in the first quarter of 2025 included $7.1 million in the commercial portfolio and $3.4 million in the consumer portfolio, partially offset by net recoveries of $0.2 million in the residential mortgage portfolio. Net charge-offs in the fourth quarter of 2024 included $7.5 million in the commercial portfolio and $4.3 million in the consumer portfolio, partially offset by net recoveries of less than $0.1 million in the residential mortgage portfolio. For the first quarter of 2024, net charge-offs included $5.2 million in the commercial portfolio and $3.9 million in the consumer portfolio, partially offset by a net recovery of $0.1 million in the residential mortgage portfolio.

We expect to continue to see modest charge-offs and provision for credit losses during the remainder of 2025. However, loan growth, portfolio mix, asset quality metrics and future assumptions in economic forecasts will drive the level of credit loss reserves.

The discussion labeled "Allowance for Credit Losses and Asset Quality" that appears later in this Item provides additional information on these changes and on general credit quality.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income totaled $94.8 million for the first quarter of 2025, up $3.6 million, or 4%, from the fourth quarter of 2024 and $6.9 million, or 8%, from the same period in 2024. The increase in noninterest income from the fourth quarter of 2024 was driven by growth in most revenue lines that were partially offset by declines in bank card and ATM fees and trust fees. The increase from the first quarter of 2024 is also attributable to growth in most lines that was partially offset by declines in gains on sales of assets, investment and annuity fees and credit-related fees. A more detailed discussion of these and other noninterest income variances follows.

The components of noninterest income are presented in the following table for the indicated periods.

Service charges on deposit accounts include consumer, business, and corporate deposit account servicing fees, as well as nonsufficient funds fees on non-consumer accounts, overdraft and overdraft protection fees, and other customer transaction-related fees. Service charges on deposits totaled $24.1 million for the first quarter of 2025, up $0.7 million, or 3%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 and up $1.9 million, or 8%, from the same period in 2024. The linked-quarter increase was primarily driven by an increase in analysis fees on business accounts. The increase from the same period in 2024 was also largely attributable to analysis fees, and to consumer overdraft fees, driven by higher instances of overdrafts.

Trust fee income represents revenue generated from a full range of trust services, including asset management and custody services provided to individuals, businesses and institutions. Trust fees totaled $18.0 million for the first quarter of 2025, down $0.1 million, or 1%, from the fourth quarter of 2024 and up $0.9 million, or 6%, from the same period in 2024. The year-over-year increase was

46

Table of Contents

primarily attributable to personal, institutional, and corporate trust revenue, driven by market value and sales volumes. These increases were partially offset by a decline in employee benefits trust revenue.

Bank card and ATM fees include interchange and other income from credit and debit card transactions, fees earned from processing card transactions for merchants, and fees earned from ATM transactions. Bank card and ATM fees totaled $20.7 million for the first quarter of 2025, down $0.7 million, or 3%, from the fourth quarter of 2024 and up $0.1 million, or less than 1%, from the same period in 2024. The linked-quarter decrease was primarily driven by a seasonal decline in credit and debit card and ATM fees, partially offset by an increase in merchant fees that was largely due to pricing adjustments. The increase from the same period in 2024 was largely driven by increases in merchant and debit card fees, partially offset by a decline in ATM and credit card fees.

Investment and annuity fees and insurance commissions, which include both fees earned from sales of annuity and insurance products, as well as managed account fees, totaled $11.4 million, up $0.5 million, or 5%, from the fourth quarter of 2024 and down $0.4 million, or 4%, from the same period in 2024. The linked-quarter increase was largely driven by annuity sales volume and corporate underwriting fees, partially offset by a decrease in fixed income trading and insurance commissions. The decrease from the same period in 2024 was driven by a $1.1 million decrease in annuity fees that was partially offset by a $0.7 million increase in investment management fees.

Income from secondary mortgage market operations is comprised of income produced from the origination and sales of residential mortgage loans in the secondary market. We offer a full range of mortgage products to our customers and typically sell longer-term fixed-rate loans while retaining the majority of adjustable-rate loans, as well as loans generated through programs to support customer relationships. Secondary mortgage market operations income will vary based on mortgage application volume, pull through rates, the percentage of loans ultimately sold in the secondary market and the timing of such sales. Income from secondary mortgage market operations was $3.5 million in the first quarter of 2025, up $0.9 million, or 36%, from the fourth quarter of 2024 and up $0.6 million, or 20%, from the same period in 2024. The linked-quarter increase was primarily attributable to a higher percentage of loans sold in the secondary market. The year-over-year increase was driven by an increase in the level of mortgage loan production, reflective of a more favorable interest rate environment and the addition of lenders, as well as a higher percentage of loans sold in the secondary market.

Income from bank-owned life insurance (BOLI) is typically generated through insurance benefit proceeds as well as the growth of the cash surrender value of insurance contracts held. Income from BOLI was $4.9 million for the first quarter of 2025, up $0.3 million, or 6%, from the fourth quarter of 2024 and up $0.6 million, or 15%, from the same period in 2024. The linked-quarter increase was driven by income from changes in cash surrender value. The year-over-year increase is largely attributable to mortality gains.

Credit-related fees include fees assessed on letters of credit and unused portions of loan commitments. Credit-related fees were $2.8 million for the first quarter of 2025, virtually flat compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 and down $0.3 million, or 9%, from the same period in 2024. The decrease from the same period in 2024 was primarily driven by a decrease in unused commitment fees.

Income or loss from customer and other derivatives is largely from our customer interest rate derivative program. Loss from customer and other derivatives totaled $0.3 million for the first quarter of 2025, compared to a loss of $0.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 and $2.8 million in the first quarter of 2024. Derivative income can be volatile and is dependent upon the composition of the portfolio, volume and mix of sales and termination activity, and market value adjustments due to market interest rate movement. The variance compared to the fourth quarter was largely due to lower losses related to our Visa B derivative of $1.0 million, partially offset by lower earnings on customer derivatives of $0.4 million. The variance compared to the same quarter in the prior year reflects a $1.6 million improvement in earnings from customer derivatives, largely interest rate driven, and lower losses related to our Visa B derivative of $0.9 million.

Net gains on sales of premises, equipment and other assets consist primarily of net revenue earned from sales of excess-bank owned facilities and equipment no longer in use, gains on sales of Small Business Administration (SBA) and other non-residential mortgage loans, and leases and other assets associated with the equipment finance line of business. Net gains on sales of premises, equipment and other assets totaled $1.9 million for the first quarter of 2025, compared to $1.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2024 and $2.8 million in the same period in 2024. The linked-quarter increase was largely driven by gains on sales of SBA loans. The year-over-year decrease was largely driven by a gain on the sale of bank premises and equipment recorded in the first quarter of 2024, partially offset by an increase in gains on sales of SBA loans. The level of net gains or losses on sales of these assets in a given reporting period will vary based on a variety of circumstances.

Other miscellaneous income is comprised of various items, including income from investments in small business investment companies (SBIC), Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) stock dividends, and fees from loan syndication and other specialty lines of business. Other miscellaneous income totaled $7.8 million, up $0.7 million, or 10% from the fourth quarter of 2024 and up $1.9 million, or 33%, from the first quarter of 2024. The linked-quarter change was largely driven by increases of $1.5 million in

47

Table of Contents

syndication fees and $1.1 million in SBIC income, partially offset by a $1.6 million decrease in dividends on FHLB stock, and a net $0.3 million decrease in other miscellaneous income. The year over year change was driven by an increase of $2.4 million of SBIC income and $1.3 million of syndication fees, partially offset by a $1.7 million decrease in FHLB stock dividends, and a net $0.1 million decrease in other miscellaneous income. The decrease in dividends on FHLB stock reflects a decline in the level of stock owned.

We expect noninterest income to be up 9% to 10% for the full year of 2025 from the 2024 noninterest income of $364.1 million. This guidance has been updated to include the impact of the acquisition of Sabal Trust Company that closed on May 2, 2025.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2025 was $205.1 million, up $2.7 million, or 1%, from the fourth quarter of 2024 and down $2.7 million, or 1%, from the same period in 2024. The linked-quarter increase was largely driven by other real estate and foreclosed assets expense, regulatory fees, personnel expense and data processing expense, partially offset by a decrease in business development expense, tax credit investment amortization and other miscellaneous expenses. The first quarter of 2024 included a $3.8 million supplemental disclosure item attributable to an FDIC special assessment. Excluding the impact of the supplemental disclosure item, noninterest expense was up $1.1 million, or 1%, driven largely by professional services, data processing expense, other real estate and foreclosed assets expense and other retirement expense, partially offset by a decrease in personnel expense. A more detailed discussion of these and other noninterest expense variances follows.

The components of noninterest expense are presented in the following table for the indicated periods.

Personnel expense consists of salaries, incentive compensation, long-term incentives, payroll taxes, and other employee benefits such as 401(k), pension, and insurance for medical, life and disability. Personnel expense totaled $114.3 million for the first quarter of 2025, up $0.6 million, or 1%, from the fourth quarter of 2024 and down $6.8 million, or 6%, from the same period in 2024. The linked quarter increase was largely driven by seasonal increases in payroll tax and benefits, partially offset by a decrease in bonus expense, and a decrease in compensation expense as a result of two fewer payroll days in the current period. The year over year decrease reflects a favorable impact from salary deferrals associated with lending activities, a decrease in headcount, and one fewer payroll day, partially offset by annual merit increases and annual increases in most benefit categories.

Occupancy and equipment expenses are primarily composed of lease expenses, depreciation, maintenance and repairs, rent, taxes, and other equipment expenses. Occupancy and equipment expenses totaled $17.7 million for the first quarter of 2025, down $0.2 million, or 1%, from the fourth quarter of 2024 and virtually flat compared to the same period in 2024. The linked-quarter decrease was attributable to lower costs associated with general repairs and maintenance, partially offset by increases in property taxes, utilities, and leased facility expense.

Data processing expense includes expenses related to third party technology processing and servicing costs, technology project costs and fees associated with bank card and ATM transactions, and credit card reward expenses. Data processing expense was $31.3 million for the first quarter of 2025, up $0.6 million, or 2%, from the fourth quarter of 2024 and up $2.5 million, or 9%, from the same period in 2024. The linked-quarter increase was driven in part by certain activity-based processing fees, expenses associated with ongoing technology enhancements, and increases in card expense, partially offset by a decrease in software maintenance costs. The increase from the same period in 2024 was largely related to activity-based processing fees, partially offset by a decrease in software maintenance costs. Data processing expense can vary from period to period, depending on business needs and technology enhancement initiatives.

Professional services expense includes accounting and audit, legal, consulting and certain outsourced service expense. Professional services expense for the first quarter of 2025 totaled $12.2 million, down $0.2 million, or 2%, from the fourth quarter of 2024 and up $3.2 million, or 35%, from the same period in 2024. The linked-quarter decrease was largely driven by a decline in consulting, legal and other similar services, partially offset by an increase in expense from certain outsourced initiatives. The increase compared to the same period in 2024 was largely related to outsourcing initiatives.

Deposit insurance and regulatory fees for the first quarter of 2025 totaled $5.0 million, up $1.2 million, or 33%, from the fourth quarter of 2024 and down $3.9 million, or 44%, from the same period in 2024. Included in the first quarter of 2024 was a supplemental disclosure item of $3.8 million attributable to a more sizable adjustment to the special assessment by the FDIC to cover losses incurred under the systemic risk exception following the failure of two large regional banks. Excluding the impact of the supplemental disclosure item, both the linked-quarter and year over year changes in deposit insurance and regulatory fees were primarily attributable to changes in our risk-based assessment calculation as well as less significant quarterly adjustments to the special assessment based on quarterly updates from the FDIC.

The FDIC special assessment expense recorded to date is management's estimate of our portion of the cost attributable to the systemic risk exception based on information from the FDIC. However, the loss estimates resulting from the failures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank may be subject to further change pending the projected and actual outcome of loss share agreements, joint ventures, and outstanding litigation. The exact amount of losses incurred will not be determined until the FDIC terminates the receiverships of these banks; therefore, the exact exposure to the Company remains unknown.

Net losses from other real estate and foreclosed assets totaled $1.8 million in the first quarter of 2025, compared to net gains of $0.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 and $0.2 million for the same period in 2024. The level of net income or losses associated with maintaining the other real estate owned portfolio can vary depending on sales activity, valuation adjustments and income or expense associated with operating and maintaining foreclosed property. Gains or losses on the sale of other real estate and foreclosed assets may occur periodically and are dependent on the number and type of assets for sale and current market conditions. The net loss in the current period includes a $2.4 million valuation charge attributable to one commercial property.

Corporate value, franchise and other non-income tax expense for the first quarter of 2025 totaled $4.3 million, up $0.1 million, or 4%, from the fourth quarter of 2024 and down $0.8 million, or 15% from the same period in 2024. The linked-quarter increase is largely related to an increase in bank share tax, partially offset by a decrease in franchise tax. The year-over-year decline is primarily due to a decrease in franchise and bank share taxes. The calculation of bank share tax is based on multiple variables, including average quarterly assets, earnings and stockholders’ equity to determine the taxable assessment value and can vary from period to period.

Business development-related expenses (including advertising, travel, entertainment and contributions) totaled $7.6 million for the first quarter of 2025, down $1.2 million, or 13%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 and up $0.4 million, or 6%, from the same period in 2024. The decrease from the fourth quarter of 2024 was primarily attributable to lower advertising and travel expense. The increase from the first quarter of 2024 was largely attributable to increases in marketing expense, partially offset by lower charitable contributions. The timing and level of business development expense can vary based on business needs and promotional campaigns.

All other expenses, excluding amortization of intangibles, is comprised of a variety of other operational expenses and losses, tax credit investment amortization, and net other retirement expense. All other expenses totaled $8.7 million for the first quarter of 2025, down $0.8 million, or 8%, from the fourth quarter of 2024 and up $1.1 million, or 14%, from the same period in 2024. The linked-quarter decrease was largely in other miscellaneous expense, tax credit amortization and telecommunications and postage expense, partially offset by an increase in other retirement expense related pension and post-retirement benefit expense. The increase from the first

quarter of 2024 was primarily related to increases in other retirement expense and other miscellaneous expense, partially offset by a decrease in tax credit amortization.

We expect adjusted noninterest expense to be up 4% to 5% for the full year of 2025 from the 2024 adjusted noninterest expense of $816.1 million. While unchanged from prior guidance, we have incorporated the impact of the Sabal Trust Company acquisition.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate for the first quarter of 2025 was approximately 19.9% compared to 18.9% in the fourth quarter of 2024 and 18.5% in the first quarter of 2024. The linked-quarter increase in the effective tax rate is due primarily to a $1.4 million income tax benefit in the fourth quarter of 2024 related to various discrete items, such as share-based compensation. The first quarter of 2025 effective income tax is higher than the first quarter of 2024 primarily due to higher forecasted annual pre-tax earnings.

Many factors impact the effective income tax rate including, but not limited to, the level of pre-tax income and relative impact of net tax benefits related to tax credit investments, tax-exempt interest income, bank-owned life insurance, and nondeductible expenses. Additionally, discrete tax items recognized in any given period affect the comparability of the effective income tax rate between periods. Such items include share-based compensation, valuation allowance changes, uncertain tax position changes and tax law changes. Based on the current forecast, management expects the effective income tax rate for 2025 will be in the 20% to 21% range, absent any changes in tax law.

Our effective tax rate has historically varied from the federal statutory rate primarily because of tax-exempt income and tax credits. Interest income on bonds issued by or loans to state and municipal governments and authorities, and earnings from the bank-owned life insurance program are the major components of tax-exempt income. The main source of tax credits has been investments in tax-advantaged securities and tax credit projects. These investments are made primarily in the markets we serve and are directed at tax credits issued under the Federal and State New Market Tax Credit (“NMTC”) programs, Low-Income Housing Tax Credit (“LIHTC”) programs, as well as pre-2018 Qualified Zone Academy Bonds (“QZAB”) and Qualified School Construction Bonds (“QSCB”). These investments generate tax credits, which reduce current and future taxes and are recognized when earned as a benefit in the provision for income taxes.

We have invested in NMTC projects through investments in our own Community Development Entities (“CDE”), as well as other unrelated CDEs. Federal tax credits from NMTC investments are recognized over a seven-year period, while recognition of the benefits from state tax credits varies from three to five years. We have also invested in affordable housing projects that generate federal LIHTC tax credits that are recognized over a ten-year period, beginning in the year the rental activity begins. The amortization of the LIHTC investment cost is recognized as a component of income tax expense in proportion to the tax credits recognized over the ten-year credit period.

Based on tax credit investments that have been made to date in 2025, we expect to realize benefits from federal and state tax credits over the next three years totaling $8.2 million, $8.0 million, and $5.5 million in 2026, 2027, and 2028, respectively. We intend to continue making investments in tax credit projects. However, our ability to access new credits will depend upon, among other factors, federal and state tax policies and the level of competition for such credits.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Liquidity

Liquidity management ensures that funds are available to meet the cash flow requirements of our depositors and borrowers, while also meeting the operating, capital and strategic cash flow needs of the Company, the Bank and other subsidiaries. As part of the overall asset and liability management process, liquidity management strategies and measurements have been developed to manage and monitor liquidity risk. The following table summarizes available liquidity at March 31, 2025:

Liquidity levels of financial institutions continue to be in heightened focus since the failure of several major regional U.S. banks that experienced large-scale deposit runs in the first half of 2023. At March 31, 2025, our available on and off-balance sheet liquidity of $20.0 billion is well in excess of our estimated uninsured, noncollateralized deposits of approximately $11.0 billion.

The asset portion of the balance sheet provides liquidity primarily through loan principal repayments, maturities and repayments of investment securities and occasional sales of various assets. Short-term investments such as federal funds sold, securities purchased under agreements to resell and interest-bearing deposits with the Federal Reserve Bank or with other commercial banks are additional sources of liquidity to meet cash flow requirements. Free securities represent unpledged securities that can be sold or used as collateral for borrowings, and include unpledged securities assigned to short-term dealer repurchase agreements or to the Federal Reserve Bank discount window. Total pledged securities were $3.2 billion at March 31, 2025, compared to $3.9 billion at December 31, 2024 and $4.2 billion at March 31, 2024. Management has established an internal target for the ratio of free securities to total securities of 20% or greater. As shown in the table below, our ratio of free securities to total securities was 58.64% at March 31, 2025, compared to 48.65% at December 31, 2024 and 44.86% at March 31, 2024. The decrease in pledged securities and related increase in free securities compared to December 31, 2024 is largely attributable to pledges that were released in response to a decrease in public funds deposits. Both securities and FHLB letters of credit are pledged as collateral related to public funds and repurchase agreements.

The liability portion of the balance sheet provides liquidity mainly through the ability to use cash sourced from customer deposit accounts. At March 31, 2025, deposits totaled $29.2 billion, down $298.1 million from December 31, 2024, due in-part to a seasonal decline in public funds deposits. There were no brokered time deposits at March 31, 2025 compared to $6.9 million at December 31, 2024. The use of brokered deposits as a funding source is subject to certain policies regarding the amount, term and interest rate.

Core deposits consist of total deposits excluding certificates of deposit of $250,000 or more and brokered deposits. Core deposits totaled $27.5 billion at March 31, 2025, down $215.6 million, or 1%, from December 31, 2024 and down $32.2 million, or less than 1%, from March 31, 2024. Changes in the level of core deposits will vary based on the level of total deposits and the mix therein. The ratio of core deposits to total deposits was 94.34% at March 31, 2025, compared to 94.12% at December 31, 2024 and 92.61% at March 31, 2024.

Purchases of federal funds, securities sold under agreements to repurchase and other short-term borrowings from customers provide additional sources of liquidity to meet short-term funding requirements. Besides funding from customer sources, the Bank has a line of credit with the FHLB that is secured by blanket pledges of certain mortgage loans. At March 31, 2025, the Bank had no borrowings and approximately $5.2 billion available under this line. At March 31, 2025, the unused borrowing capacity at the Federal Reserve’s discount window was approximately $3.4 billion. There were no outstanding borrowings with the Federal Reserve at any date during any period covered by this report.

Wholesale funds, which are comprised of short-term borrowings, long-term debt and brokered deposits were 2.74% of core deposits at March 31, 2025, compared to 3.09% at December 31, 2024 and 4.71% at March 31, 2024. At March 31, 2025, wholesale funds totaled $753.4 million, a decrease of $103.1 million, or 12%, from December 31, 2024 and $545.5 million, or 42%, from March 31, 2024. The amount of wholesale funds outstanding will vary based on retail deposit levels and current funding needs. The Company has established an internal target for wholesale funds to be less than 25% of core deposits.

Other key measures used to monitor liquidity include the liquid asset ratio and the loan-to-deposit ratio. The liquid asset ratio (liquid assets, consisting of cash, short-term investments and free securities, divided by total liabilities) measures our ability to meet short-term obligations. Our liquid asset ratio was 18.08% at March 31, 2025, compared to 15.26% at December 31, 2024 and 13.19% at March 31, 2024. Management has established a minimum liquid asset ratio of 7.5% and an internal target of 12% or greater. The loan to deposit ratio (average loans outstanding for the reporting period divided by average deposits outstanding) measures the amount of funds the Bank lends for each dollar of deposits on hand. Our average loan-to-deposit ratio for the first quarter of 2025 was 80.23%, compared to 79.87% for the fourth quarter of 2024 and 80.55% for the first quarter of 2024. Management has an established target range for the loan-to-deposit ratio of 87% to 89%, but will operate outside that range under certain circumstances.

Cash generated from operations is another important source of funds to meet liquidity needs. The Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows included in Part I, Item 1 of this document present operating cash flows and summarize all significant sources and uses of funds during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024.

Dividends received from the Bank have been the primary source of funds available to the Parent for the payment of dividends to our stockholders, repurchasing our common stock in the open market, and for servicing its debt. The liquidity management process takes into account the various regulatory provisions that can limit the amount of dividends the Bank can distribute to the Parent. The Parent targets cash and other liquid assets to provide liquidity in an amount sufficient to fund approximately six quarters of ongoing cash or liquid asset needs, consisting primarily of common stockholder dividends, debt service requirements, and any expected early extinguishment of debt. The Parent may operate below the target level on a temporary basis if a return to the target can be achieved in the near-term, generally not to exceed four quarters. The Parent had cash and liquid assets of $267.2 million at March 31, 2025, exceeding our internal target.

Capital Resources

Stockholders’ equity totaled $4.3 billion at March 31, 2025, up $151.0 million, or 4%, from December 31, 2024. The increase from December 31, 2024 is primarily attributable to net income of $119.5 million, other comprehensive income of $91.1 million, and $0.6 million of long-term incentive plan and dividend reinvestment activity. These factors were partially offset by dividends of $39.5 million and share repurchases of $20.7 million.

The tangible common equity (TCE) ratio was 10.01% at March 31, 2025, up 54 bps from 9.47% at December 31, 2024, driven primarily by tangible net earnings (+36 bps), other comprehensive income (+26 bps), and a decrease in tangible assets (+10 bps), partially offset by dividends (-12 bps) and common share repurchases (-6 bps).

The regulatory capital ratios of the Company and the Bank at March 31, 2025 remained well in excess of current regulatory minimum requirements, including capital conservation buffers, by at least $1.3 billion. The Company and the Bank have been categorized as “well-capitalized” in the most recent notices received from our regulators. Refer to the Supervision and Regulation section in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 for further discussion of our capital requirements.

The following table shows the regulatory capital ratios for the Company and the Bank as calculated under current rules for the indicated periods. The capital ratios prior to March 31, 2025 reflect the election to use the CECL five-year transition rule, which expired on December 31, 2024.

We regularly perform stress analysis on our capital levels. One such scenario includes the hypothetical impact of including accumulated other comprehensive losses on market valuations of available for sale securities and cash flow hedges in regulatory capital and a further stress scenario that includes both those losses plus losses on the held to maturity investment portfolio in regulatory capital. We estimate that our regulatory capital ratios would remain in excess of the well-capitalized minimums under both of these stress scenarios at March 31, 2025.

On January 30, 2025, our board of directors declared the regular quarterly common stock cash dividend of $0.45 per share, an increase of $0.05 per common share, or 13%. The quarterly common stock cash dividend was paid on March 17, 2025 to shareholders of record on March 5, 2025. The Company has paid uninterrupted dividends to its shareholders since 1967.

In December 2024, our Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program, effective January 1, 2025, to repurchase up to 4.3 million shares of the Company’s common stock (approximately 5% of the shares of common stock outstanding as of December 31, 2024). The authorization is set to expire on December 31, 2026. The shares may be repurchased in the open market, by block purchase, through accelerated share repurchase plans, in privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, in one or more transactions, from time to time, depending upon market conditions and other factors, and in accordance with applicable regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company is not obligated to purchase any shares under this program and the repurchase authorization may be terminated or amended by the Board at any time prior to the expiration date. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company repurchased 350,000 shares under this program at an average price of $59.28 per share, inclusive of commissions.

BALANCE SHEET ANALYSIS

Short-Term Investments

Short-term assets are held to so that funds are available to meet the cash flow needs of both borrowers and depositors. Short-term investments, including interest-bearing bank deposits and federal funds sold, were $841.5 million at March 31, 2025, down $98.3 million from December 31, 2024. Average short-term investments of $693.3 million for the first quarter of 2025 were down $113.1 million from the fourth quarter of 2024. Typically, the balance of short-term investments will change on a daily basis depending upon movement in customer loan and deposit accounts.

Securities

The purpose of the securities portfolio is to increase profitability, mitigate interest rate risk, provide liquidity and comply with regulatory pledging requirements. Our securities portfolio includes securities categorized as available for sale and held to maturity. Available for sale securities are carried at fair value and may be sold prior to maturity. Unrealized gains or losses on available for sale securities, net of deferred taxes, are recorded as accumulated other comprehensive income or loss in stockholders' equity.

Investment in securities totaled $7.7 billion at March 31, 2025, up $97.8 million, or 1%, from December 31, 2024. The increase from December 31, 2024 was primarily driven by favorable movement in the fair value adjustment on the available for sale portfolio of $102.1 million.

At March 31, 2025, securities available for sale totaled $5.3 billion and securities held to maturity totaled $2.4 billion.

Our securities portfolio consists mainly of residential and commercial mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations that are issued or guaranteed by U.S. government agencies. We invest only in high quality investment grade securities with a targeted portfolio effective duration generally between two and five and a half years. At March 31, 2025, the average expected maturity of the portfolio was 5.46 years with an effective duration of 4.04 years and a nominal weighted-average yield of 2.70%.

Under an immediate, parallel rate shock using increases of 100 bps and 200 bps, the effective durations would be 4.05 and 4.03 years, respectively. At December 31, 2024, the average expected maturity of the portfolio was 5.58 years with an effective duration of 4.12 years and a nominal weighted-average yield of 2.66%. The changes in expected maturity, effective duration, and nominal weighted-average yield were largely the result of maturities and paydowns and reinvestment in the portfolio during the quarter. At March 31, 2025, approximately $514.0 million of our available for sale securities are hedged with $477.5 million in fair value hedges in order to provide protection and flexibility to reposition and/or reprice the portfolio, effectively reducing the duration (market price risk) on the hedged securities. During the first quarter of 2025, $163.5 million of fair value hedges became effective, with the net earnings recorded in interest income. Once effective, fair value hedges synthetically convert the notional amount of the hedged asset over the life of the hedge to a variable rate instrument that is indexed to the federal funds effective rate.

At the end of each reporting period, we evaluate the securities portfolio for credit loss. Based on our assessments, expected credit loss was not material for any period presented, and therefore no allowance for credit loss was recorded.

Loans

Total loans at March 31, 2025 were $23.1 billion, down $201.3 million, or 1%, from December 31, 2024. The net decrease in loans largely reflective of softer demand and an increase in payoffs of large healthcare and commercial non-real estate credits, discussed in more detail below.

The following table shows the composition of our loan portfolio at each date indicated.

Our commercial customer base is diversified over a range of industries. We lend mainly to middle-market and smaller commercial entities, although we do participate in larger shared-credit loan facilities generally with businesses/sponsors operating in our market areas that are well known to the relationship officers. Shared national credits outstanding at March 31, 2025 totaled approximately $2.2 billion, or 9.6% of total loans, down $93.1 million from December 31, 2024. At March 31, 2025 our larger concentrations in shared national credits includes approximately $316 million of real estate rental and leasing credits, $302 million of finance and insurance credits, $287 million of manufacturing credits, $243 million of healthcare-related credits, $208 million in information credits, and $200 million of transportation and warehousing, with the remainder of the balance in other diverse industries.

Commercial and industrial (“C&I”) loans include both non-real estate and owner occupied real estate secured loans. C&I totaled $12.6 billion at March 31, 2025, down $251.0 million, or 2%, from December 31, 2024. The decrease is reflective of an increase in payoffs of large healthcare and commercial non-real estate credits, as mentioned above.

Our C&I loan portfolio is well diversified by product, client, and geography throughout our footprint. Nevertheless, we may be exposed to certain concentrations of credit risk which exist in relation to different borrowers or groups of borrowers, specific types of collateral, industries, loan products, or regions. The following table provides detail of the more significant industry concentrations for our commercial and industrial loan portfolio, which is based on NAICS codes for all industries, with the exception of energy, which is based on the borrower’s source of revenue (i.e. a manufacturer whose income is derived from energy-related business is reported as energy).

Commercial real estate - income producing loans totaled approximately $3.8 billion at March 31, 2025 and construction and land development loans totaled approximately $1.3 billion at March 31, 2025, both virtually flat compared to December 31, 2024. The following table details the end-of-period aggregated commercial real estate - income producing and construction loan balances by property type. Loans reflected in 1-4 family residential construction include both loans to construction builders as well as single family borrowers.

The residential mortgage loan portfolio totaled $4.0 billion at March 31, 2025, up $63.8 million, or 2%, compared to December 31, 2024. The composition of the residential mortgage loan portfolio will depend on the volume of loans originated and the percentage ultimately sold in the secondary market.

The consumer loan portfolio totaled $1.3 billion at March 31, 2025, down $32.0 million, or 2%, from December 31, 2024. Changes in the consumer loan portfolio reflect both slowing demand and the impact of our exit from the indirect automobile lending market, where the existing portfolio is in run-off. The indirect loan portfolio totaled $12.7 million at March 31, 2025, down $5.4 million from December 31, 2024.

Average loans for the first quarter of 2025 of $23.1 billion were down $179.9 million, or 1%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2024.

Management expects the December 31, 2025 period-end loan growth percentage to be in the low single digits from the December 31, 2024 balance of $23.3 billion.

Allowance for Credit Losses and Asset Quality

Our allowance for credit losses was $343.2 million at March 31, 2025, up $0.2 million from December 31, 2024. The increase in the allowance for credit losses is attributable to a $10.5 million provision for credit losses, largely offset by $10.3 million of net charge-offs. Our overall credit loss outlook is not significantly different from that at December 31, 2024. However, uncertainty related to tariffs, ongoing inflationary pressure, elevated interest rates and the outcome of the Federal Reserve’s actions with respect to monetary

policy, and geopolitical conflicts continues to result in an elevated reserve relative to pre-pandemic levels. The allowance for loan loss decreased $0.8 million and the reserve for unfunded lending commitments increased $1.0 million from December 31, 2024. Though the allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2025 remained relatively flat compared to December 31, 2024, the reserve coverage to total loans increased modestly, driven largely by increases in the commercial non real estate and consumer direct lending portfolios.

We utilized the March 2025 Moody's economic scenarios for our allowance for credit losses at March 31, 2025. After considering the variables underlying each of the Moody's economic scenarios, management probability-weighed the baseline scenario at 40% and the downside S-2 mild recessionary scenario at 60% in the computation of the allowance for credit losses at March 31, 2025, consistent with the weighting used in the prior quarter. Each of the scenarios considered have varying degrees of severity and duration of impacts from tariffs and geopolitical conflicts, inflationary pressure, including volatility in commodities prices and impacts on the labor market, the consequences of the Federal Reserve's actions with regard to monetary policy, and the effects of disruption in the financial services industry. Refer to the Economic Outlook section of this discussion and analysis for further information on the Moody’s scenarios and our weighting assumptions.

Our allowance for credit losses coverage to total loans was 1.49% at March 31, 2025, up from 1.47% at December 31, 2024. The allowance for credit losses on the commercial portfolio totaled $272.0 million, or 1.53% of that portfolio, at March 31, 2025, compared to $272.5 million, or 1.52%, at December 31, 2024. The allowance for credit losses on the residential mortgage portfolio totaled $43.2 million, or 1.07% of that portfolio, at March 31, 2025, compared to $42.4 million, or 1.07%, at December 31 2024. The allowance for credit losses on the consumer portfolio totaled $28.0 million, or 2.09% of that portfolio, at March 31, 2025, compared to $28.0 million, or 2.04%, at December 31, 2024.

Criticized commercial loans totaled $594.1 million at March 31, 2025, down $28.9 million, or 5%, from $623.0 million at December 31, 2024. Criticized loans are defined as those having potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention (risk-rated as special mention, substandard and doubtful), including both accruing and nonaccruing loans. The Company routinely assesses the ratings of loans in its portfolio through an established and comprehensive portfolio management process. In addition, the Company often reviews portfolios of loans to determine if there are areas of risk not specifically identified in its loan by loan approach. Criticized commercial loans comprised 3.35% of that portfolio at March 31, 2025, down from 3.47% at December 31, 2024. We remain focused on identifying specific and broader risk indicators that may be impacting certain segments in our portfolio, and we have not seen signs of significant weakening in any particular industry, sector or geographic segment beyond what we believe has been experienced by the banking industry as a whole. Our criticized commercial loans at March 31, 2025 are diversified across many industries, with the largest concentrations as follows: $86.8 million in retail trade; $66.8 million in wholesale trade; $64.0 million in healthcare and social assistance; $62.5 million in accommodation, food services and entertainment; $62.5 million in manufacturing; $58.6 million in transportation and warehousing; $52.7 million in real estate, rental and leasing; and $50.0 million in construction. Commercial loans risk rated pass-watch totaled $503.7 million at March 31, 2025, down $17.7 million, or 3%, from December 31, 2024. The pass-watch risk rating includes credits with negative performance trends that reflect sufficient risk to cause concern, but have not risen to the level of criticized.

Net charge-offs were $10.3 million, or 0.18% of average total loans on an annualized basis in the first quarter of 2025, compared to $11.7 million, or 0.20% in the fourth quarter of 2024 and $9.0 million or, 0.15% in the first quarter of 2024. Net charge-offs in the first quarter of 2025 included $7.1 million in the commercial portfolio and $3.4 million in the consumer portfolio, partially offset by net recoveries of $0.2 million in the residential mortgage portfolio. Net charge-offs in the fourth quarter of 2024 included $7.5 million in the commercial portfolio and $4.3 million in the consumer portfolio, partially offset by net recoveries of less than $0.1 million in the residential mortgage portfolio.

Nonaccrual loans plus ORE and foreclosed assets totaled $130.9 million at March 31, 2025, up $5.8 million from December 31, 2024. Nonaccrual loans of $104.2 million increased $6.9 million from December 31, 2024. Despite the increase in the level of nonaccrual loans from December 31, 2024, the ratio to total loans remains relatively low at 0.45% of the total portfolio. ORE and foreclosed assets were $26.7 million at March 31, 2025, down $1.1 million from December 31, 2024. The linked-quarter decline was largely due to a $2.4 million valuation charge on a commercial property. Nonaccrual loans plus ORE and other foreclosed assets as a percentage of total loans, ORE and other foreclosed assets was 0.57% at March 31, 2025, up 3 bps from December 31, 2024.

We expect to continue to see modest charge-offs and provision for credit losses for the remainder of 2025. Loan growth, portfolio mix, asset quality metrics and future assumptions in economic forecasts will drive the level of credit loss reserves.

Deposits

Deposits provide the most significant source of funding for our interest earning assets. Generally, our ability to compete for market share depends on our deposit pricing and our wide range of products and services that are focused on customer needs, among other factors. We offer high-quality banking services with convenient delivery channels, including online and mobile banking. We provide specialized services to our commercial customers to promote commercial deposit growth. These services include treasury management, industry expertise and lockbox services.

Lack of diversity in concentration within a deposit base may increase the risk of events or trends that could prompt a larger-scale demand for deposits outflow. Concerns over a financial institution's ability to protect deposit balances in excess of the federally insured limit may increase the risk of a deposit run. We consider our deposit base to be seasoned, stable and well-diversified. We also offer our customers an insured cash sweep product (ICS) that allows customers to secure deposits above FDIC insured limits. We continue to see demand for the ICS product, with the balance totaling $378.5 million at March 31, 2025 compared to $359.7 million at

December 31, 2024. At March 31, 2025, we have calculated our average deposit account size by dividing period-end deposits by the population of accounts with balances to be approximately $37,600, which includes $199,400 in our commercial and small business lines (excluding public funds), $122,000 in our wealth management business line, and $18,500 in our consumer business line.

Further, at March 31, 2025, our sources of liquidity exceed uninsured deposits. We have estimated the Bank’s amount of uninsured deposits using the methodologies and assumptions required for FDIC regulatory reporting to be approximately $14.3 billion at March 31, 2025, down $0.3 billion compared to December 31, 2024. Our uninsured deposit total at March 31, 2025 includes approximately $3.3 billion of public funds that have pledged securities as collateral, leaving approximately $11.0 billion of noncollateralized, uninsured deposits compared to total liquidity of $20.0 billion. Our ratio of noncollateralized, uninsured deposits to total deposits was approximately 37.7% at March 31, 2025, compared to 37.3% at December 31, 2024.

Total deposits were $29.2 billion at March 31, 2025, down $298.1 million, or 1%, from December 31, 2024. Average deposits for the first quarter of 2025 were $28.8 billion, down $356.0 million, or 1%, from the fourth quarter of 2024.

Noninterest-bearing demand deposits totaled $10.6 billion at March 31, 2025, up $17.4 million, or less than 1%, from December 31, 2024. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits comprised 36% of total deposits at March 31, 2025, unchanged compared to December 31, 2024.

Interest-bearing transaction and savings accounts totaled $11.4 billion at March 31, 2025, up $91.7 million, or 1%, from December 31, 2024. Interest-bearing public fund deposits totaled $3.0 billion at March 31, 2025, down $208.2 million, or 6%, from December 31, 2024. The decrease in public funds deposits is mostly reflective of typical seasonal outflows during the first quarter. Retail time deposits totaled $4.2 billion at March 31, 2025, down $192.1 million, or 4%, from December 31, 2024. The decline in retail time deposits is mostly attributable to maturities that did not renew, some of which shifted into interest-bearing transaction and savings accounts. We had no brokered time deposits at March 31, 2025, compared to $6.9 million at December 31, 2024, as a result of maturities of instruments that were not replaced.

The rate paid on interest-bearing deposits for the first quarter of 2025 was 2.63%, down 24 bps from 2.87% in the fourth quarter of 2024. Rates paid on deposits will vary based on prevailing interest rates and promotional rate offerings on the various product types.

Short-Term Borrowings

At March 31, 2025, short-term borrowings totaled $542.8 million, down $96.2 million from December 31, 2024. The change from December 31, 2024 is attributable to a decrease in customer repurchase agreements. Average short-term borrowings of $635.8 million in the first quarter of 2025 were down $36.4 million, or 5%, from the fourth quarter of 2024.

Short-term borrowings are a core portion of the Company’s funding strategy and can fluctuate depending on our funding needs and the sources utilized. Customer repurchase agreements and FHLB borrowings are the major sources of short-term borrowings. Customer repurchase agreements are offered mainly to commercial customers to assist them with their cash management strategies or to provide a temporary investment vehicle for their excess liquidity pending redeployment for corporate or investment purposes. While customer repurchase agreements provide a recurring source of funds to the Bank, amounts available will vary. FHLB borrowings are funds from the Federal Home Loan Bank that are collateralized by certain residential mortgage and commercial real estate loans included in the Bank’s loan portfolio, subject to specific criteria. There were no FHLB borrowings outstanding at either March 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024.

Long-Term Debt

Long-term debt totaled $210.6 million at March 31, 2025, virtually unchanged from December 31, 2024.

Long-term debt at March 31, 2025 includes subordinated notes payable with an aggregate principal amount of $172.5 million, a stated maturity of June 15, 2060, and a fixed rate of 6.25% per annum that qualify as Tier 2 capital of certain regulatory capital ratios. Subject to prior approval by the Federal Reserve, the Company may redeem these notes in whole or in part on any of its quarterly interest payment dates after June 15, 2025.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

Loan Commitments and Letters of Credit

In the normal course of business, the Bank enters into financial instruments, such as commitments to extend credit and letters of credit, to meet the financing needs of its customers. Such instruments are not reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements until they are funded, although they expose the Bank to varying degrees of credit risk and interest rate risk in much the same way as

funded loans. Under regulatory capital guidelines, the Company and Bank must include unfunded commitments meeting certain criteria in risk-weighted capital calculations.

Commitments to extend credit include revolving commercial credit lines, non-revolving loan commitments issued mainly to finance the acquisition and development or construction of real property or equipment, and credit card and personal credit lines. The availability of funds under commercial credit lines and loan commitments generally depends on whether the borrower continues to meet credit standards established in the underlying contract and other contractual conditions. Loan commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee by the borrower. Credit card and personal credit lines are generally subject to cancellation if the borrower’s credit quality deteriorates. A number of commercial and personal credit lines are used only partially or, in some cases, not at all before they expire, and the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent our future cash requirements.

A substantial majority of the letters of credit are standby agreements that obligate the Bank to fulfill a customer’s financial commitments to a third party if the customer is unable to perform. The Bank issues standby letters of credit primarily to provide credit enhancement to its customers’ other commercial or public financing arrangements and to help them demonstrate financial capacity to vendors of essential goods and services.

The contractual amounts of these instruments reflect our exposure to credit risk. The Bank undertakes the same credit evaluation in making loan commitments and assuming conditional obligations as it does for on-balance sheet instruments and may require collateral or other credit support. At March 31, 2025, the Company had a reserve for credit losses on unfunded lending commitments totaling $25.0 million.

The following table shows the commitments to extend credit and letters of credit at March 31, 2025 according to expiration date.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

There were no material changes or developments during the reporting period with respect to methodologies that the Company uses when applying what management believes are critical accounting policies and developing critical accounting estimates as disclosed in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and with those generally practiced within the banking industry which require management to make estimates and assumptions about future events. Estimates are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, and the resulting estimates form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of certain assets and liabilities not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Our primary market risk is interest rate risk that stems from uncertainty with respect to the absolute and relative levels of future market interest rates that affect our financial products and services. In an attempt to manage our exposure to interest rate risk, management measures the sensitivity of our net interest income and cash flows under various market interest rate scenarios, establishes interest rate risk management policies and implements asset/liability management strategies designed to promote a relatively stable net interest margin under varying rate environments.

Net Interest Income at Risk

The following table presents an analysis of our interest rate risk as measured by the estimated changes in net interest income resulting from an instantaneous and sustained parallel shift in rates at March 31, 2025. Shifts are measured in 100 basis point increments in a range from -500 to +500 basis points from base case, with -300 through +300 basis points presented in the table below. Our interest

rate sensitivity modeling incorporates a number of assumptions including loan and deposit repricing characteristics, the rate of loan prepayments and other factors. The base scenario assumes that the current interest rate environment is held constant over a 24-month forecast period and is the scenario to which all others are compared in order to measure the change in net interest income. Policy limits on the change in net interest income under a variety of interest rate scenarios are approved by the Board of Directors. All policy scenarios assume a static volume forecast where the balance sheet is held constant, although other scenarios are modeled.

|  | Estimated Increase |
|  | (Decrease) in NII |
| Change in Interest Rates | Year 1 |  | Year 2 |
| (basis points) |  |  |  |
- | 300 |  | -7.19 | % |  | -15.31 | %
- | 200 |  | -4.64 | % |  | -10.19 | %
- | 100 |  | -2.15 | % |  | -4.81 | %
+ | 100 |  | 2.02 | % |  | 4.35 | %
+ | 200 |  | 3.88 | % |  | 8.40 | %
+ | 300 |  | 5.73 | % |  | 12.47 | %

The results indicate a general asset sensitivity across most scenarios driven primarily by repricing of cash flows in the investment and loan portfolios. As short-term rates have remained elevated, the funding mix has shifted to more rate sensitive deposits resulting in lower overall net interest income at risk as deposit repricing is expected to offset rate adjustments in the floating rate loan book. Furthermore, due to the funding mix shift, the Company is currently less sensitive to changes in short-term rate movements with interest rate risk being driven more by changes in the mid to long-term segment of the yield curve. When deemed prudent, management has taken actions to mitigate exposure to interest rate risk with on- or off-balance sheet financial instruments and intends to do so in the future. Possible actions include, but are not limited to, changes in the pricing of loan and deposit products, modifying the composition of earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, and adding to, modifying or terminating existing interest rate swap agreements or other financial instruments used for interest rate risk management purposes.

Even if interest rates change in the designated amounts, there can be no assurance that our assets and liabilities would perform as anticipated. Additionally, a change in the U.S. Treasury rates in the designated amounts accompanied by a change in the shape of the U.S. Treasury yield curve would cause significantly different changes to net interest income than indicated above. Strategic management of our balance sheet and earnings is fluid and would be adjusted to accommodate these movements. As with any method of measuring interest rate risk, certain shortcomings are inherent in the methods of analysis presented above. For example, although certain assets and liabilities may have similar maturities or periods to repricing, they may react in different degrees to changes in market interest rates. Also, the interest rates on certain types of assets and liabilities may fluctuate in advance of changes in market interest rates, while interest rates on other types may lag behind changes in market rates. Certain assets such as adjustable-rate loans have features which restrict changes in interest rates on a short-term basis and over the life of the asset. Also, the ability of many borrowers to service their debt may decrease in the event of an interest rate increase. All of these factors are considered in monitoring exposure to interest rate risk.

Economic Value of Equity (EVE)

EVE simulation involves calculating the present value of all future cash flows from assets and subtracting the present value of all future cash outflows from liabilities including the impact of off-balance sheet items such as interest rate hedges. This analysis results in a theoretical market value of the bank's equity or EVE. Management’s focus on EVE analysis is not on the resulting calculation of EVE itself, but instead on the sensitivity of EVE to changes in market rates. Policy limits on the change in EVE under a variety of interest rate scenarios are approved by the Board of Directors. The following table presents an analysis of the change in the Bank’s EVE resulting from instantaneous and parallel shifts in rates as of March 31, 2025. Shifts are measured in 100 basis point increments ranging from -500 to +500 basis points from base case, with -300 through +300 basis points presented in table below.

|  |  | Estimated Change in EVE at
Change in Interest Rates |  | March 31, 2025
(basis points) |  |
- | 300 |  | 3.30%
- | 200 |  | 3.04%
- | 100 |  | 2.00%
+ | 100 |  | -2.57%
+ | 200 |  | -5.41%
+ | 300 |  | -8.28%

The net changes in EVE presented in the preceding table are within the parameters approved by the Boards of Directors. Because EVE measures the present value of cash flows over the estimated lives of instruments, the change in EVE does not directly correlate to the degree that earnings would be impacted over a shorter time horizon (i.e., the current year). Further, EVE does not consider factors such as future balance sheet growth, changes in product mix, changes in yield curve relationships, possible hedging activities, or changing product spreads, each of which could mitigate the adverse impact of changes in interest rates.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, an evaluation was carried out by the Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Based on that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of March 31, 2025, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, identified no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three month period ended March 31, 2025, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
