“Webster has again proven its capacity to consistently execute through a variety of operating environments,” said John R.

Period end loans and leases balance of $53.1 billion, up $0.6 billion, or 1.0 percent from prior quarter.

Consolidated financial performance:
Quarterly net interest income compared to the first quarter of 2024:
Net interest income was $612.2 million, compared to $567.7 million.
Net interest margin was 3.48 percent, compared to 3.41 percent. The yield on interest-earning assets decreased by 17 basis points, and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 24 basis points.
Average interest-earning assets totaled $72.9 billion, an increase of $4.1 billion, or 6.0 percent.
Average loans and leases totaled $52.6 billion, an increase of $1.6 billion, or 3.2 percent.
Average deposits totaled $65.0 billion, an increase of $4.4 billion, or 7.3 percent.
Quarterly provision for credit losses:
The provision for credit losses was $77.5 million, contributing to a $23.8 million increase in the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases from the prior quarter. The provision for credit losses was $63.5 million in the prior quarter, and $45.5 million a year ago.
Net charge-offs were $55.0 million, compared to $60.9 million in the prior quarter, and $37.5 million a year ago. The ratio of net charge-offs to average loans and leases was 0.42 percent, compared to 0.47 percent in the prior quarter, and 0.29 percent a year ago.
The allowance for credit losses on loans and leases represented 1.34 percent of total loans and leases, compared to 1.31 percent at December 31, 2024, and 1.26 percent at March 31, 2024.
The allowance for credit losses on loans and leases represented 126 percent of non-performing loans and leases, compared to 149 percent at December 31, 2024, and 226 percent at March 31, 2024.
Quarterly non-interest income compared to the first quarter of 2024:
Total non-interest income was $92.6 million, compared to $99.4 million, a decrease of $6.8 million. In the first quarter of 2024, total non-interest income included losses on sale of investment securities of $9.8 million and an $11.7 million net gain on the sale of mortgage servicing rights. Excluding these items, total non-interest income decreased $4.9 million. The decrease is primarily attributable to the credit valuation adjustment and bank-owned life insurance events in the first quarter of 2024.

a2022wfcpressreleaseheadera.jpg
Quarterly non-interest expense compared to the first quarter of 2024:
Total non-interest expense was $343.6 million, compared to $335.9 million, an increase of $7.7 million. In the first quarter of 2024, total non-interest expense included $11.9 million related to an increase to the FDIC special assessment estimate and $3.1 million of Ametros Financial Corporation (“Ametros”) acquisition expenses. Excluding these items, total
non-interest expense increased $22.7 million. The increase is primarily attributable to investments in human capital and our risk management infrastructure, and a full quarter of Ametros expenses as the transaction closed in late-January 2024.
Quarterly income taxes compared to the first quarter of 2024:
Income tax expense was $56.7 million, compared to $69.3 million, and the effective tax rate was 20.0 percent, compared to 24.3 percent. The higher income tax expense and effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2024 primarily reflects the recognition of a $10.9 million discrete expense in that period, which impacted the effective rate by 3.8 percentage points.
Investment securities:
Total investment securities, net were $17.7 billion, compared to $17.5 billion at December 31, 2024, and $16.3 billion at March 31, 2024. The carrying value of the available-for-sale portfolio included $580.4 million of net unrealized losses, compared to $712.9 million at December 31, 2024, and $758.5 million at March 31, 2024. The carrying value of the held-to-maturity portfolio does not reflect $893.3 million of net unrealized losses, compared to $991.2 million at December 31, 2024, and $897.2 million at March 31, 2024.
Loans and leases:
Total loans and leases were $53.1 billion, compared to $52.5 billion at December 31, 2024, and $51.1 billion at March 31, 2024. Compared to December 31, 2024, commercial loans and leases increased by $203.9 million, commercial real estate loans decreased by $7.9 million, residential mortgages increased by $269.3 million, and consumer loans increased by $85.8 million.

Loan originations for the portfolio were $2.7 billion, compared to $3.4 billion in the prior quarter, and $2.5 billion a year ago.

Asset quality:
Total non-performing loans and leases were $564.4 million, compared to $461.3 million at December 31, 2024, and $283.6 million at March 31, 2024. The ratio of total non-performing loans and leases to total loans and leases was 1.06 percent, compared to 0.88 percent at December 31, 2024, and 0.56 percent at March 31, 2024.
Past due loans and leases were $87.2 million, compared to $113.4 million at December 31, 2024, and $125.2 million at March 31, 2024. The decrease from prior quarter is primarily driven by asset-based lending and commercial real estate, partially offset by commercial non-mortgage and residential mortgages.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures, including the efficiency ratio, return on average tangible common stockholders’ equity, tangible equity ratio, tangible common equity ratio, tangible book value per common share, and core deposits. A reconciliation of each
non-GAAP financial measure to the most closely comparable GAAP measure is included in the accompanying selected financial highlights table.

Webster believes that providing certain non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with information useful in understanding its financial performance, performance trends, and financial position. Webster utilizes these measures for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Webster, as well as securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties, also use these measures to compare peer company operating performance. Webster believes that its presentation and discussion, together with the accompanying reconciliations, provides additional clarity of factors and trends affecting its business and allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to management.

The efficiency ratio, which represents the costs expended to generate a dollar of revenue, is calculated excluding certain non-operational items. The return on average tangible common stockholders’ equity represents net income available to common stockholders, adjusted for the tax-effected amortization of intangible assets, as a percentage of average stockholders’ equity less average preferred stock and average goodwill and net intangible assets. The tangible equity ratio represents stockholders’ equity less goodwill and net intangible assets divided by total assets less goodwill and net intangible assets. The tangible common equity ratio represents stockholders’ equity less preferred stock and goodwill and net intangible assets divided by total assets less goodwill and net intangible assets. Tangible book value per common share represents stockholders’ equity less preferred stock and goodwill and net intangible assets divided by common shares outstanding at the end of the period. Core deposits reflect total deposits less certificates of deposit and brokered certificates of deposit.

These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures and results, and Webster strongly encourages investors to review its consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.

Refer the tables beginning on page 18 for Non-GAAP to GAAP reconciliations.

(1)In order to provide the users of the Company’s financial statements with a more transparent view of the actual consolidated average balances that are used in the calculation of net interest margin, the Company has recast, in the above table, certain consolidated
average balances for the three months ended March 31, 2024, to reflect a change in presentation being applied retrospectively. Specifically, adjustments were made to exclude average unsettled trades of $108.8 million and average available-for-sale unrealized losses of $737.7 million from investment securities, and to exclude an average basis adjustment of $27.4 million from long-term debt related to a de-designated fair value hedge. Rather, effective as of December 31, 2024, these amounts are being presented in average non-interest-earning assets and average non-interest-bearing liabilities, respectively. There was no change to the related yields/rates or net interest income that had been previously disclosed.
(2)As of the first quarter of 2025, Webster changed the methodology used to annualize net interest income in its quarterly net interest margin calculation. Net interest margin for the prior periods has been recast. There were no changes to the related yields/rates or net interest income that had been previously disclosed.
