STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY [Abstract] |
STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY | NOTE 11 – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY Repurchase Programs On July 22, 2024, the Corporation announced that its Board of Directors approved a repurchase program under which the Corporation may repurchase up to $ 250 million that could include repurchases of common stock and/or junior subordinated debentures. Under this program, the Corporation repurchased 5,158,809 shares of common stock through open market transactions at an average price of $ 19.38 for a total cost of approximately $ 100.0 million during the first nine months of 2025. In addition, the Corporation redeemed $ 61.7 million of outstanding junior subordinated debentures. As of September 30, 2025, the Corporation has remaining authorization of approximately $ 38.3 million, which it expects to execute during the remainder of 2025. Furthermore, on October 22, 2025, the Corporation announced that its Board of Directors approved a new stock repurchase program, under which the Corporation may repurchase up to an additional $ 200 million of its outstanding common stock, which it expects to execute through the end of the fourth quarter of 2026. Repurchases under these programs may be executed through open market purchases, accelerated share repurchases and privately negotiated transactions or plans, including plans complying with Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act, and will be conducted in accordance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements. The Corporation’s repurchase programs are subject to various factors, including the Corporation’s capital position, liquidity, financial performance and alternative uses of capital, stock trading price, and general market conditions. The repurchase programs do not obligate it to acquire any specific number of shares and do not have an expiration date. The repurchase programs may be modified, suspended, or terminated at any time at the Corporation’s discretion. Any repurchased shares of common stock are expected to be held as treasury shares. The Corporation’s holding company has no operations and depends on dividends, distributions and other payments from its subsidiaries to fund dividend payments, stock repurchases, and to fund all payments on its obligations, including debt obligations.

Amounts transferred to the legal surplus reserve from retained earnings are not available for distribution to the Corporation without the prior consent of the Puerto Rico Commissioner of Financial Institutions. The Puerto Rico Banking Law provides that, when the expenditures of a Puerto Rico commercial bank are greater than receipts, the excess of the expenditures over receipts must be charged against the undistributed profits of the bank, and the balance, if any, must be charged against the legal surplus reserve, as a reduction thereof. If the legal surplus reserve is not sufficient to cover such balance in whole or in part, the outstanding amount must be charged against the capital account and the Bank cannot pay dividends until it can replenish the legal surplus reserve to an amount of at least 20% of the original capital contributed. FirstBank’s legal surplus reserve, included as part of retained earnings in the Corporation’s consolidated statements of financial condition, amounted to $ 230.2 million as of each of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. There were no transfers to the legal surplus reserve during the first nine months of 2025.
