BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
These unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of WSFS Financial Corporation (WSFS, and together with its subsidiaries, the Company), and its consolidated subsidiaries. WSFS’ primary subsidiary is Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB (WSFS Bank or the Bank). The Company's accounting and reporting policies conform to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the U.S. (GAAP), prevailing practices within the banking industry for interim financial information and Rule 10-01 of SEC Regulation S-X (Rule 10-01). Rule 10-01 does not require us to include all information and notes that would be required in audited financial statements. Operating results for the periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for any future quarters or for the year ending December 31, 2026. These unaudited, interim Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K) that was filed with the SEC on March 2, 2026 and is available at www.sec.gov or on the website at www.wsfsbank.com. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions were eliminated in consolidation.
In preparing the unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. Amounts subject to significant estimates include the allowance for credit losses (including loans and leases held for investment, investment securities available-for-sale and held-to-maturity, as well as accounts receivable for fee businesses), loans held for sale, lending-related commitments, goodwill, intangible assets, post-retirement benefit obligations, the fair value of financial instruments, and income taxes. Among other effects, changes to these estimates could result in future impairments of investment securities, goodwill and/or intangible assets, the establishment of additional allowance and lending-related commitment reserves, changes in the fair value of financial instruments, as well as increased post-retirement benefits and income tax expense.
Significant Accounting Policies
The significant accounting policies used in preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements are disclosed in the Company's 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. Those significant accounting policies remain unchanged at June 30, 2026.
Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance
There were no applicable material accounting pronouncements adopted by the Company since December 31, 2025.
Accounting Guidance Pending Adoption as of June 30, 2026
ASU No. 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (ASU 2024-03): In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, which requires entities to disclose disaggregated information about certain income statement expense line items in the notes to their financial statements on an annual and interim basis. Subsequently, in January 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-01—Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date, making ASU 2024-03 effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, on a retrospective or prospective basis, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this update to determine the impact on the Company’s disclosures.
ASU No. 2025-06, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software (ASU 2025-06): In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, which clarifies the capitalization threshold on costs to develop software for internal use. This update removes the prescriptive and sequential software development stages (referred to as “project stages”) and requires entities to start capitalizing software costs when (i) management has authorized and committed to funding the software project, and (ii) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended (referred to as the “probable-to-complete recognition threshold”). The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods on a prospective, modified transition, or a retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted as of the beginning of an annual reporting period. The Company is currently evaluating this update to determine its impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
ASU No. 2025-08, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans (ASU 2025-08): In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-08 which aligns the initial recognition of the allowance for credit losses on financial assets acquired with a “more-than-insignificant” deterioration of credit quality since its origination (PCD assets) and non-PCD assets by applying the “gross up approach” to both populations. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods therein on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this update to determine the impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
ASU No. 2025-09, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Hedge Accounting Improvements (ASU 2025-09): In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-09 to clarify certain aspects on hedge accounting to align with the economics of an entity's risk management activities more closely. The update allows entities to group forecasted transactions with similar risk exposures. Entities may either determine whether a hedged risk related to a forecasted transaction within a hedged group is similar to other hedged risks in the group or determine if the designated hedging instrument is highly effective against each risk in the group. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods therein on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating this update to determine the impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements.
ASU No. 2025-11, Interim Reporting (Topic 270): Narrow-Scope Improvements (ASU 2025-11): In December 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-11 which clarifies the current requirements of interim financial statements, including its form and content, and includes a disclosure principle that requires entities to disclose events since the last annual reporting period that have a material impact on the entity. The amendments are effective for interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, on a prospective or a retrospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect this update to have a material impact on its disclosures.
