Business Overview

​

We are a diversified bank holding company headquartered in Carmel, Indiana and registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. We currently operate in multiple business segments, including Multi-family Mortgage Banking that offers multi-family housing and healthcare facility financing and servicing, as well as syndicated low-income housing tax credit and debt funds; Mortgage Warehousing that offers mortgage warehouse financing, commercial loans, and deposit services; and Banking that offers portfolio lending for multi-family and healthcare facility loans, retail and correspondent residential mortgage banking, jumbo lending, agricultural lending, SBA lending, and traditional community banking.

​

Our business consists of funding multi-family, residential, and SBA loans meeting underwriting standards of government programs under an originate to sell model, and retaining adjustable-rate loans as held for investment to reduce interest rate risk. The gain on sale of these loans and servicing fees contribute to noninterest income. The funding source is primarily from mortgage custodial, retail, commercial, brokered deposits and short-term borrowings. We believe that the combination of net interest income and noninterest income from the sale of low risk profile assets has traditionally resulted in lower than industry charge-offs and a lower expense base, which serves to maximize net income and higher than industry shareholder return.

​

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. These estimates are based upon historical experience and on various other assumptions that management believes are reasonable under the current circumstances. These estimates and assumptions form the basis for making judgments about the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities that are not readily available from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The estimates and judgments that management believes have the most effect on its reported financial position and results of operations are set forth within “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025. There have been no significant changes in critical accounting policies or the assumptions and judgments utilized in applying these policies since those reported for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Financial Condition

As of June 30, 2026, we had approximately $21.2 billion in total assets, $14.3 billion in deposits, and $2.4 billion in total shareholders’ equity. Total assets as of June 30, 2026 included $12.3 billion of loans receivable, net of ACL-Loans, and $4.6 billion of loans held for sale. Assets also included $1.4 billion in securities held to maturity and $820.1 million in securities available for sale, the majority of which were acquired from a warehouse customer. Additionally, we had $407.4 million of mortgage loans in process of securitization that represent pre-sold multi-family rental real estate loan originations in primarily Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac mortgage-backed securities pending settlements that typically occur within 30 days, as well as other assets of $751.0 million, which primarily related to low-income housing tax credits, and $314.7 million of cash and cash equivalents. Servicing rights at June 30, 2026 were $236.9 million based on the fair value of the loan servicing, which primarily includes Ginnie Mae multi-family servicing rights with 10-year call protection at origination.

Comparison of Financial Condition at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025

Total Assets. Total assets of $21.2 billion at June 30, 2026 increased $1.8 billion, or 9%, compared to $19.4 billion at December 31, 2025. The increase was due primarily to growth in loans and loans held for sale, specifically in the multi-family and warehouse portfolios, as well as revolving lines of credit collateralized by mortgage servicing rights that are included in the commercial and commercial real estate portfolio. Warehouse loans, including loans held for sale and loans receivable, are exclusively made up of loans to residential and multi-family mortgage bankers that are funding agency-eligible mortgages and commercial loans, which represent all of the Company’s loans to non-depository institutions.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Cash and cash equivalents of $314.7 million at June 30, 2026 increased $102.5 million, or 48%, compared to $212.2 million at December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily to satisfy anticipated loan funding commitments.

Mortgage Loans in Process of Securitization. Mortgage loans in process of securitization of $407.4 million at June 30, 2026 decreased $212.7 million, or 34%, compared to $620.1 million at December 31, 2025. These represent loans that our banking subsidiary, Merchants Bank, has funded and are held in the loan portfolio pending settlement, as primarily Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac mortgage-backed securities with a firm investor commitment to purchase the securities.

Securities Available for Sale. Securities available for sale of $820.1 million at June 30, 2026 decreased $45.0 million, or 5%, compared to $865.1 million at December 31, 2025. The decrease in securities available for sale was primarily due to $305.3 million in calls, maturities, repayments, and other adjustments, partially offset by purchases of $260.4 million during the period.

Included in securities available for sale were $527.7 million and $571.3 million of investments for which a fair value option was elected at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Fair value option securities represent securities which the Company has elected to carry at fair value and are separately identified on the unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets with changes in the fair value recognized in earnings as they occur. 

As of June 30, 2026, AOCL of $1.2 million, related to securities available for sale increased $1.2 million from December 31, 2025. The $1.2 million of AOCL as of June 30, 2026 represented less than 0.15% of total equity and total securities available for sale, reflecting our interest rate risk policy of maintaining short duration on assets and liabilities.

Securities Held to Maturity. Securities held to maturity of $1.4 billion at June 30, 2026 decreased $188.8 million compared to $1.5 billion at December 31, 2025. The decrease was due to repayme

Company and Business Segment Overview

We are a diversified bank holding company headquartered in Carmel, Indiana and registered under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended. We currently operate in multiple business segments, including Multi-family Mortgage Banking that offers multi-family housing and healthcare facility financing and servicing, as well as syndicated low-income housing tax credit and debt funds; Mortgage Warehousing that offers mortgage warehouse financing, commercial loans, and deposit services; and Banking that offers portfolio lending for multi-family and healthcare facility loans, retail and correspondent residential mortgage banking, jumbo lending, agricultural lending, SBA lending, and traditional community banking.

​

Our business consists of funding low risk, multi-family, residential, and SBA loans meeting underwriting standards of government programs under an originate-to-sell model, and retaining adjustable-rate loans as held for investment to reduce interest rate risk. The gain on sale of these loans and servicing fees contribute to noninterest income. The funding source is primarily from mortgage custodial, retail, commercial and brokered deposits, as well as short-term borrowing. We believe that the combination of net interest income and noninterest income from the sale of low risk profile assets has traditionally resulted in lower than industry charge-offs and a lower expense base, which serves to maximize net income and higher than industry shareholder return.

Primary Factors We Use to Evaluate Our Business

As a financial institution, we manage and evaluate various aspects of both our results of operations and our financial condition. We evaluate the comparative levels and trends of the line items on our consolidated balance sheets and statements of income, as well as various financial ratios that are commonly used in our industry. We analyze these ratios and financial trends against our own historical performance, our budgeted performance, and the financial condition and performance of comparable financial institutions in our region.

Results of operations

In addition to net income, the primary factors we use to evaluate and manage our results of operations include net interest income, noninterest income, noninterest expense, and return on average equity.

Net interest income. Net interest income represents interest income less interest expense. We generate interest income from interest (net of deferred origination fees received and costs paid, which are amortized over the expected life of the loans) and fees received on interest-earning assets, including loans, investment securities, cash, and dividends on FHLB stock and other equity securities we own. We incur interest expense from interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, including interest-bearing deposits and borrowings. Net interest income is the most significant contributor to our revenues and net income. To evaluate net interest income, we measure and monitor: (a) yields on our loans and other interest-earning assets; (b) duration on our loans, deposits, and borrowings; (c) the costs of our deposits and other funding sources; (d) our net interest margin; and (e) the regulatory risk weighting associated with the assets. Net interest margin is calculated as the annualized net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. Because noninterest-bearing sources of funds, such as noninterest-bearing deposits and shareholders’ equity, also fund interest-earning assets, net interest margin includes the benefit of these noninterest-bearing sources.

Changes in market interest rates, the slope of the yield curve, and interest we earn on interest-earning assets or pay on interest-bearing liabilities, as well as the volume and types of interest-earning assets, interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing liabilities and shareholders’ equity, usually have the largest impact on changes in our net interest spread, net interest margin, and net interest income during a reporting period.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income consists of, among other things: (a) gain on sale of loans; (b) loan servicing fees; (c) fair value adjustments to the value of servicing rights, derivatives, and certain loans; (d) mortgage warehouse fees; and (e) syndication and asset management fees; and (f) o
