| ● | any service interruptions, cyber incidents or other breaches relating to our technology systems, security systems or infrastructure or those of our third-party providers; |
| ● | the occurrence of fraud or other financial crimes within our business; |
| ● | competition from other financial services providers, including traditional financial institutions and fintechs, and the effects of disintermediation within the banking business including consolidation within the industry; |
| ● | changes to federal government lending programs like the SBA’s Preferred Lender Program and the FHA’s insurance programs, including the impact of changes in regulations and budget appropriations on such programs; |
| ● | impairment of our mortgage servicing rights, disruption in the secondary market for mortgage loans, declines in real estate values, or being required to repurchase mortgage loans or reimburse investors; |
| ● | claims and litigation related to our fiduciary responsibilities in connection with our trust and wealth business; |

| ● | developments in technology, such as artificial intelligence, the success of our digital growth strategy, and our ability to incorporate innovative technologies in our business and provide products and services that satisfy our clients’ expectations for convenience and security; |
| ● | our ability to integrate Vista Bank into our business may be more difficult, costly or time consuming than expected and we may fail to realize the anticipated benefits or cost savings of the acquisition; |
| ● | failure to obtain regulatory approvals or consummate attractive acquisitions or continue to increase organic loan growth would restrict our growth plans: |
| ● | the accuracy of projected operating results for assets and businesses we acquire; |

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
March 31, 2026
Note 1 Basis of Presentation
National Bank Holdings Corporation is a bank holding company that has elected financial holding company status and was incorporated in the State of Delaware in 2009. The Company is headquartered in Greenwood Village, Colorado, and its primary operations are conducted through its wholly owned subsidiaries NBH Bank and BOJHT. NBH Bank is a Colorado state-chartered bank and a member of the Federal Reserve, and BOJHT is a Wyoming state-chartered bank and a member of the Federal Reserve. The Company provides a variety of banking products to both commercial and consumer clients through a network of over
The accompanying interim unaudited consolidated financial statements serve to update the National Bank Holdings Corporation Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 and include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, NBH Bank, BOJHT and 2UniFi, LLC. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and, where applicable, with general practices in the banking industry or guidelines prescribed by bank regulatory agencies. However, they may not include all information and notes necessary to constitute a complete set of financial statements under GAAP applicable to annual periods and accordingly should be read in conjunction with the financial information contained in the Company’s most recent Form 10-K. The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain reclassifications of prior years’ amounts are made whenever necessary to conform to current period presentation. The results of operations for the interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the full year or any other interim period. All amounts are in thousands, except share data, or as otherwise noted.
GAAP requires management to make estimates that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. By their nature, estimates are based on judgment and available information. Management has made significant estimates in certain areas, such as the fair values of financial instruments, contingent liabilities and the ACL. Because of the inherent uncertainties associated with any estimation process and future changes in market and economic conditions, it is possible that actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
The Company’s significant accounting policies followed in the preparation of the unaudited consolidated financial statements are disclosed in note 2 of the audited financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2025 and are contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes to the application of significant accounting policies since December 31, 2025, except for the following:
Acquisition activities—The Company accounts for business combinations under the acquisition method of accounting. Assets acquired and liabilities assumed are measured and recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition, including identifiable intangible assets. If the fair value of net assets acquired exceeds the fair value of consideration paid, a bargain purchase gain is recognized at the date of acquisition. Conversely, if the consideration paid exceeds the fair value of the net assets acquired, goodwill is recognized at the acquisition date. Fair values are subject to refinement for up to a maximum of
Identifiable intangible assets are recognized separately if they arise from contractual or other legal rights or if they are separable (i.e., capable of being sold, transferred, licensed, rented, or exchanged separately from the entity). The depositor relationship related to deposit liabilities, the client relationship related to assets under management, acquired technology intangibles and the trade name intangible (known as the core deposit, client relationship, acquired technology intangible assets and trade name intangible, respectively) may be exchanged in observable exchange transactions. As a result, these intangible assets are considered identifiable, because the separability criterion has been met.

Note 2 Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company has not adopted any recent accounting pronouncements in addition to those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, except for the following:
In November 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-08, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Purchased Loans. The update amends the guidance in ASC 326 on the accounting for certain purchased loans. Under the new guidance, the initial recognition of the ACL for purchased loans that meet the criteria to be deemed purchased seasoned loans is aligned with the treatment for PCD loans. Specifically, an ACL is established for the initial estimate of expected credit losses as of the acquisition date and recorded through a gross-up adjustment to the amortized cost basis of the loans. The Company elected to adopt ASU 2025-08 early, as permitted by the guidance, as of January 1, 2026. The update impacted purchase accounting entries related to loans from the Vista acquisition as described below in note 3.
In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Topic 350): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software. The update eliminates the accounting consideration of software project development stages and enhances the guidance around the threshold for cost capitalization. The Company adopted ASU 2025-06 early as of January 1, 2026, using a prospective transition approach. The update did not have a material impact to the financial statements.
In July 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-05, Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses for Accounts Receivable and Contract Assets. The update is related to the estimation of expected credit losses for current accounts receivable and current contract assets that arise from transactions accounted for under ASC Topic 606. It allows all entities to elect a practical expedient that assumes current conditions as of the balance sheet date do not change for the remaining life of the asset. The update also allows for an accounting policy election, which is not applicable to public business entities. The Company adopted ASU 2025-05 as of January 1, 2026, on a prospective basis, and elected to use the practical expedient. The guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
Note 3 Acquisition Activities
On January 7, 2026, the Company completed its acquisition of Vista Bancshares, Inc., the bank holding company of Texas-based Vista Bank. Pursuant to the merger agreement executed in September 2025, the Company paid $
The Company determined that this acquisition constitutes a business combination as defined in ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. Accordingly, as of the date of the acquisition, the Company has recorded the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at fair value. The Company determined fair values in accordance with the guidance provided in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures. Fair value is established by discounting the expected future cash flows with a market discount rate for like maturities and risk instruments. The estimation of expected future cash flows, market conditions, other future events and actual results could differ materially from the original estimates. The determination of the fair values of fixed assets, loans, OREO and core deposit intangible involves a high degree of judgment and complexity.
12
The table below summarizes net assets acquired (at fair value) and consideration transferred in connection with the Vista acquisition. The fair value of the acquired assets and liabilities noted in the table may change during the provisional period, which may last up to twelve months subsequent to the acquisition date. The Company may obtain additional information to refine the valuation of the acquired assets and liabilities and adjust the recorded fair value.

In connection with the Vista acquisition, the Company recorded $
Cash and due from banks—The carrying amount of these assets was deemed a reasonable estimate of fair value based on the short-term nature of these assets.
Investment securities available-for-sale— The investment securities portfolio fair value was determined utilizing third-party pricing services.
Loans, net—The fair value of loans were based on a discounted cash flow methodology that considered the loans’ underlying characteristics including account type, remaining terms of loan, annual interest rates or coupon, interest types, past delinquencies, timing of principal and interest payments, current market rates, loan to value ratios, loss exposure and remaining balance. The discount rates applied were based upon a build-up approach considering the alternative cost of funds, capital charges, servicing costs, and a liquidity premium. Loans were aggregated according to similar characteristics when applying the valuation method.
Core deposit and other intangibles—The Company recorded a core deposit intangible asset of $
13
was valued using the relief‑from‑royalty method, which estimates fair value based on projected revenues, an assumed market‑based royalty rate, and a discount rate applied to the resulting cash flows.
The core deposit intangible and trade name intangible will be amortized straight-line over
Deposits—By definition, the fair value of demand and saving deposits equals the amount payable. For time deposits acquired, the Company utilized an income approach, discounting the contractual cash flows on the instruments over their remaining contractual lives at prevailing market rates.
Accounting for acquired loans
The Company adopted ASU 2025-08 as of January 1, 2026, which impacted the accounting for acquired loans. The Company grouped acquired loans according to similar characteristics. Loans that reflected a more-than-insignificant deterioration of credit were categorized as purchased credit deteriorated loans, and all other loans were categorized as purchased seasoned loans. For both PSLs and PCD loans, the initial estimate of expected credit losses was included in the balance of loans with an offsetting amount recorded to the ACL as of the date of acquisition.
The following table provides a summary of loans purchased as part of the Vista acquisition as of the acquisition date:

The Company does not measure expected credit losses on a financial asset, or group of financial assets, in which historical credit loss information adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts results in an expectation that nonpayment of the amortized cost basis is zero. Management evaluated held-to-maturity securities noting they are backed by loans guaranteed by either U.S. government agencies or GSEs, and management believes that default is highly unlikely given this governmental backing and long history without credit losses. Additionally, management notes that yields on which the portfolio generally trades are based upon market views of prepayment and liquidity risk and not credit risk. The Company has no intention to sell any held-to-maturity securities and believes it will not be required to sell any held-to-maturity securities before the recovery of their amortized cost.

Loans evaluated individually
We evaluate loans individually when they no longer share risk characteristics with pooled loans. These loans include loans on non-accrual status, loans in bankruptcy, and modified loans as described below. If a specific allowance is warranted based on the borrower’s overall financial condition, the specific allowance is calculated based on discounted expected cash flows using the loan’s initial contractual effective interest rate or the fair value of the collateral less selling costs for collateral-dependent loans.
A loan is considered collateral-dependent when the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty and repayment is expected to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral. Management individually evaluates collateral-dependent loans with an amortized cost basis of $

Loan modifications
The Company’s policy is to review each prospective credit to determine the appropriateness and the adequacy of security or collateral prior to making a loan. In the event of borrower default, the Company seeks recovery in compliance with lending laws, the respective loan agreements, and credit monitoring and remediation procedures that may include modifying a loan to provide a concession by the Company to the borrower from their original terms due to borrower financial difficulties in order to facilitate repayment. The Company considers loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties, where such a concession is utilized, to be modified loans. Modified loans may include principal forgiveness, interest rate reductions, other-than-insignificant-payment delays, term extensions or any combination thereof.

In evaluating the loan portfolio for an appropriate ACL level, excluding loans evaluated individually, loans were grouped into segments based on broad characteristics such as primary use and underlying collateral. Within the segments, the portfolio was further disaggregated into classes of loans with similar attributes and risk characteristics for purposes of developing the underlying data used within the discounted cash flow model including, but not limited to, prepayment and recovery rates as well as loss rates tied to macro-economic conditions within management’s reasonable and supportable forecast. The ACL also includes subjective adjustments based upon qualitative risk factors including asset quality, loss trends, lending management, portfolio growth and loan review/internal audit results.

Note 10 Regulatory Capital
As a bank holding company that has elected to be treated as a financial holding company, the Company, NBH Bank and BOJHT are subject to regulatory capital adequacy requirements implemented by the Federal Reserve, in addition to those implemented by the FDIC for NBH Bank and BOJHT, including maintaining capital positions at the “well-capitalized” level. The federal banking agencies have risk-based capital adequacy regulations intended to provide a measure of capital adequacy that reflects the degree of risk associated with a banking organization’s operations. Under these regulations, assets are assigned to one of several risk categories, and nominal dollar amounts of assets and credit equivalent amounts of off-balance-sheet items are multiplied by a risk-adjustment percentage for the category. Regulatory authorities can initiate certain mandatory actions if the Company, NBH Bank or BOJHT fail to meet the minimum capital requirements, which could have a material effect on our financial statements and business generally.

Note 11 Revenue from Contracts with Clients
Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with clients are satisfied. Below is the detail of the Company’s revenue from contracts with clients, including service charges and other deposit account related fees, bank card fees and other non-interest income. Other non-interest income includes trust and wealth management fees and Cambr fee income.
32
Service charges and other account-related fees
Service charge fees are primarily comprised of monthly service fees, check orders and other deposit account related fees. Other fees include revenue from processing wire transfers, bill pay service, cashier’s checks and other services. The Company’s performance obligation for account analysis fees and monthly service fees is generally satisfied, and the related revenue recognized, over the period in which the service is provided. Check orders and other deposit account-related fees are largely transactional based, and therefore, the Company’s performance obligation is satisfied, and related revenue recognized, at a point in time. Payment for service charges on deposit accounts is primarily received immediately or in the following month through a direct charge to clients’ accounts.
Bank card fees
Bank card fees are primarily comprised of debit card income, ATM fees, merchant services income and other fees. Debit card income is primarily comprised of interchange fees earned whenever the Company’s debit cards are processed through card payment networks such as Visa. ATM fees are primarily generated when a Bank cardholder uses a non-Bank ATM or a non-Bank cardholder uses a Bank ATM. Merchant services income mainly represents fees charged to merchants to process their debit card transactions. The Company’s performance obligation for bank card fees is largely satisfied, and related revenue recognized, when the services are rendered or upon completion. Payment is typically received immediately or in the following month.
Other non-interest income
Trust and wealth management fees
The trust and wealth management business offers separately managed investment account solutions and trustee services to clients. Services may include custody of assets, trustee services, wealth management and directed trusts. The Company charges an asset-based fee earned for personal and corporate accounts. Additional fees may include minimum annual fees, fees for additional tax reporting and preparation for irrevocable trust returns or annual flat fees for certain trusts. The performance obligations related to this revenue include items such as performing investment advisory services, custody and record-keeping services, and fund administrative and accounting services. The performance obligations are satisfied upon completion of service and fees are generally a fixed flat rate or based on a percentage of the account’s market value per the contract with the client. These fees are recorded within other non-interest income in the consolidated statements of operations.
Cambr fee income
Cambr operates a deposit acquisition and processing platform that generates core deposits from accounts offered through third-party embedded finance companies. Cambr’s platform facilitates the movement of embedded finance companies’ client deposits into FDIC-insured accounts at banks within Cambr’s network. Cambr generates fee income by charging a percentage-based fee of the deposit balance placed into the Cambr network. The performance obligation is satisfied upon completion of service, and Cambr fee income is recorded within other non-interest income in the consolidated statements of operations.
Other non-interest expense
Included within other non-interest expense are gains and losses from OREO sales, which are recognized when the Company meets its performance obligation to transfer title to the buyer. The gain or loss is measured as the excess of the proceeds received compared to the OREO carrying value. Sales proceeds are received in cash at the time of transfer.

Note 15 Derivatives
Risk management objective of using derivatives
The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company has established policies stipulating that neither carrying value nor fair value at risk should exceed established guidelines. The Company has designed strategies to confine these risks within the established limits and identify appropriate trade-offs in the financial structure of its balance sheet. These strategies include the use of derivative financial instruments to help achieve the desired balance sheet repricing structure while meeting the desired objectives of its clients. Currently, the Company employs certain interest rate swaps that are designated as fair value hedges, cash flow hedges and economic hedges. The Company manages a matched book with respect to its derivative instruments in order to minimize its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions.
Fair values of derivative instruments on the balance sheet
The table below presents the fair value of the Company’s derivative financial instruments as well as their classification in the consolidated statements of financial condition as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. Information about the valuation methods used to measure fair value is provided in note 17.

Cash flow hedges
The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest income and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses floors and collars as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate floors designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty if interest rates fall below the strike rate on the contract in exchange for an up-front premium. Interest rate collars designated as cash flow hedges involve the payments of variable-rate amounts if interest rates rise above the cap strike rate on the contract and receipt of variable-rate amounts if interest rates fall below the floor strike rate on the contract.
For derivatives that qualify and are designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and subsequently reclassified into interest income in the same periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Gains and losses on the derivative representing hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized over the life of the hedge on a systematic and rational basis. The earnings recognition of excluded components is included in interest income. Amounts reported in accumulated other comprehensive income related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest income as interest payments are received on the Company’s variable-rate assets. As of March 31, 2026, the Company had cash flow hedges with a notional amount of $
Fair value hedges
Interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges involve the receipt of variable-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without the exchange of the underlying notional amount. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $
For derivatives designated and that qualify as fair value hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative as well as the offsetting loss or gain on the hedged item attributable to the hedged risk are recognized in earnings. The Company includes the gain or loss on the hedged items in the same line item as the offsetting loss or gain on the related derivatives. The following table presents the Company’s fixed-rate loans associated with the interest rate swaps and the loss included in loans receivable in the statements of financial condition as of the dates shown:

Non-designated hedges
Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and consist of interest rate swaps with commercial banking clients that facilitate their respective risk management strategies. Interest rate swaps are simultaneously hedged by offsetting interest rate swaps that the Company executes with a third party, such that the Company minimizes its net risk exposure resulting from such transactions. As the interest rate swaps associated with this program do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements, changes in the fair value of both the client swaps and the offsetting swaps are recognized directly in earnings. As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Company had matched interest rate swap transactions with an aggregate notional amount of $
As part of its mortgage banking activities, the Company enters into interest rate lock commitments, which are commitments to originate loans where the interest rate on the loan is determined prior to funding and the clients have locked into that interest rate. The Company then locks in the loan and interest rate with an investor and commits to deliver the loan if settlement occurs (“best efforts”) or commits to deliver the locked loan in a binding (“mandatory”) delivery program with an investor. Fair value changes of certain
38
loans under interest rate lock commitments are hedged with forward sales contracts of MBS. Forward sales contracts of MBS are recorded at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in non-interest income. Interest rate lock commitments and commitments to deliver loans to investors are considered derivatives. The market value of interest rate lock commitments and best efforts contracts are not readily ascertainable with precision because they are not actively traded in stand-alone markets. The Company determines the fair value of interest rate lock commitments and delivery contracts by measuring the fair value of the underlying assets. The fair value of the underlying assets is impacted by current interest rates, remaining origination fees, costs of production to be incurred and the probability that the interest rate lock commitments will close or will be funded.
Certain additional risks arise from these forward delivery contracts in that the counterparties to the contracts may not be able to meet the terms of the contracts. The Company does not expect any counterparty to any MBS contract to fail to meet its obligation. Additional risks inherent in mandatory delivery programs include the risk that, if the Company fails to deliver the loans subject to interest rate risk lock commitments, it will still be obligated to “pair off” MBS to the counterparty. Should this be required, the Company could incur significant costs in acquiring replacement loans and such costs could have an adverse effect on the consolidated financial statements.
The fair value of the mortgage banking derivative is recorded as a freestanding asset or liability with the change in value being recognized in current earnings during the period of change.

Credit-risk-related contingent features
The Company has agreements with its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where if the Company defaults on any of its indebtedness for reasons other than an error or omission of an administrative or operational nature, including default where repayment of the indebtedness has not been accelerated by the lender, then the Company could also be declared in default on its derivative obligations.
The Company also has agreements with certain of its derivative counterparties that contain a provision where, if the Company fails to maintain its status as a well/adequately capitalized institution, the counterparty has the right to terminate the derivative positions and the Company would be required to settle its obligations under the agreements.
As of March 31, 2026, the termination value of derivatives in a net liability position related to these agreements was
Note 16 Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments
In the normal course of business, the Company enters into various off-balance sheet commitments to help meet the financing needs of clients. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit, commercial and consumer lines of credit and standby letters of credit. The same credit policies are applied to these commitments as the loans in the consolidated statements of financial condition; however, these commitments involve varying degrees of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated statements of financial condition. The total amounts of unused commitments do not necessarily represent future credit exposure or cash requirements, as commitments often expire without being drawn upon. However, the contractual amount of these commitments, offset by any additional collateral pledged, represents the Company’s potential credit loss exposure.
Total unfunded commitments at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025 were as follows:

Total unfunded commitments | $ | | $ | | ||
Commitments to fund loans—Commitments to fund loans are legally binding agreements to lend to clients in accordance with predetermined contractual provisions provided there have been no violations of any conditions specified in the contract. These commitments are generally at variable interest rates and are for specific periods or contain termination clauses and may require the payment of a fee. The total amounts of unused commitments are not necessarily representative of future credit exposure or cash requirements, as commitments often expire without being drawn upon.
Unfunded commitments under lines of credit—In the ordinary course of business, the Company extends revolving credit to its clients. These arrangements may require the payment of a fee.
Commercial and standby letters of credit—The Company routinely issues commercial and standby letters of credit, which may be financial standby letters of credit or performance standby letters of credit. These are various forms of “back-up” commitments to guarantee the performance of a client to a third party. While these arrangements represent a potential cash outlay for the Company, the
40
majority of these letters of credit will expire without being drawn upon. Letters of credit are subject to the same underwriting and credit approval process as traditional loans, and as such, many of them have various forms of collateral securing the commitment, which may include real estate, personal property, receivables or marketable securities.
Contingencies
Mortgage loans sold to investors may be subject to repurchase or indemnification in the event of specific default by the borrower or subsequent discovery that underwriting standards were not met. The Company established a reserve liability for expected losses related to these representations and warranties based upon management’s evaluation of actual and historical loss history, delinquency trends or other documentation or deficiency findings in the portfolio and economic conditions. Charges against the reserve during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 totaling $

In the ordinary course of business, the Company may be subject to litigation. Based upon the available information and advice from the Company’s legal counsel, management does not believe that any potential, threatened or pending litigation to which it is, or would reasonably become, a party will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, financial condition or results of operations.
Note 17 Fair Value Measurements
The Company uses fair value measurements to record fair value adjustments to certain assets and liabilities and to disclose the fair value of its financial instruments. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. For disclosure purposes, the Company groups its financial and non-financial assets and liabilities into three different levels based on the nature of the instrument and the availability and reliability of the information that is used to determine fair value. The three levels are defined as follows:
| ● | Level 1—Includes assets or liabilities in which the valuation methodologies are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. |
| ● | Level 2—Includes assets or liabilities in which the inputs to the valuation methodologies are based on similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, such as interest rates, yield curves, volatilities, prepayment speeds and other inputs obtained from observable market input. |
| ● | Level 3—Includes assets or liabilities in which the inputs to the valuation methodology are based on at least one significant assumption that is not observable in the marketplace. These valuations may rely on management’s judgment and may include internally-developed model-based valuation techniques. |
Level 1 inputs are considered to be the most transparent and reliable and level 3 inputs are considered to be the least transparent and reliable. The Company assumes the use of the principal market to conduct a transaction of each particular asset or liability being measured and then considers the assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. Whenever possible, the Company first looks for quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets (level 1 inputs) to value each asset or liability. However, when inputs from identical assets or liabilities on active markets are not available, the Company utilizes market observable data for similar assets and liabilities. The Company maximizes the use of observable inputs and limits the use of unobservable inputs to occasions when observable inputs are not available. The need to use unobservable inputs generally results from the lack of market liquidity of the actual financial instrument or of the underlying collateral. While third-party price indications may be available in those cases, limited trading activity can challenge the observability of those inputs.
41
Changes in the valuation inputs used for measuring the fair value of financial instruments may occur due to changes in current market conditions or other factors. Such changes may necessitate a transfer of the financial instruments to another level in the hierarchy based on the new inputs used. The Company recognizes these transfers at the end of the reporting period that the transfer occurs. During the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, there were
The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value, as well as the general classification of each instrument under the valuation hierarchy:
Fair Value of Financial Instruments Measured on a Recurring Basis
Investment securities available-for-sale—Investment securities available-for-sale are carried at fair value and measured on a recurring basis. To the extent possible, observable quoted prices in an active market are used to determine fair value and, as such, these securities are classified as level 1. When quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities are not available, quoted prices of securities with similar characteristics, discounted cash flows or other pricing characteristics are used to estimate fair values and the securities are then classified as level 2.
Equity securities with readily determinable fair values—Equity securities with readily determinable fair values are generally traded on an exchange and market prices are readily available. These securities are carried at fair value on a recurring basis based on quoted market prices and are classified as level 1.
Loans held for sale—The Company has elected to record loans originated and intended for sale in the secondary market at estimated fair value. The portfolio consists primarily of fixed-rate residential mortgage loans that are sold within
Interest rate swap derivatives—The Company’s derivative instruments are limited to interest rate swaps that may be accounted for as fair value hedges or non-designated hedges. The fair values of the swaps incorporate credit valuation adjustments in order to appropriately reflect nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. The credit valuation adjustment is the dollar amount of the fair value adjustment related to credit risk and utilizes a probability weighted calculation to quantify the potential loss over the life of the trade. The credit valuation adjustments are calculated by determining the total expected exposure of the derivatives (which incorporates both the current and potential future exposure) and then applying the respective counterparties’ credit spreads to the exposure offset by marketable collateral posted, if any. Certain derivative transactions are executed with counterparties who are large financial institutions, or dealers. ISDA Master Agreements are employed for all contracts with dealers. These contracts contain bilateral collateral arrangements. The fair value inputs of these financial instruments are determined using discounted cash flow analysis through the use of third-party models whose significant inputs are readily observable market parameters, primarily yield curves, with appropriate adjustments for liquidity and credit risk, and are classified as level 2.
Mortgage banking derivatives—The Company relies on a third-party pricing service to value its mortgage banking derivative financial assets and liabilities, which the Company classifies as a level 3 valuation. The external valuation model to estimate the fair value of its interest rate lock commitments to originate residential mortgage loans held for sale includes grouping the interest rate lock commitments by interest rate and terms, applying an average

Fair Value of Financial Instruments Measured on a Non-recurring Basis
Certain assets may be recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis as conditions warrant. These non-recurring fair value measurements typically result from the application of lower of cost or fair value accounting or a write-down occurring during the period.
Individually evaluated loans—The Company records individually evaluated loans based on the fair value of the collateral when it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all contractual amounts due in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement.

Note 18 Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be exchanged between willing parties, other than in a forced liquidation. Fair value is determined based upon quoted market prices to the extent possible; however, in many instances, there are no quoted market prices for the Company’s various financial instruments. In cases where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on estimates using present value or other valuation techniques that may be significantly impacted by the assumptions used, including the discount rate and estimates of future cash flows. Changes in any of these assumptions could significantly affect the fair value estimates. The fair value of the financial instruments listed below does not reflect a premium or discount that could result from offering all of the Company’s holdings of financial instruments at one time, nor does it reflect the underlying value of the Company, as ASC Topic 825 excludes certain financial instruments and all non-financial instruments from its disclosure requirements. The estimated fair value amounts have been determined by the Company using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies and are based on the exit price concept within ASC Topic 825 and applied to this disclosure on a prospective basis. Considerable judgment is required to interpret market data in order to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange.

As of March 31, 2026, we had $12.6 billion in assets, $9.6 billion in loans, $10.5 billion in deposits, $1.7 billion in equity and $1.4 billion in assets under management in our trust and wealth management business.
Operating Highlights
Strategic execution
● | The Company closed the acquisition of Vista on January 7, 2026, which further strengthens the Company’s presence in the high-growth Dallas-Ft. Worth, Austin, and Lubbock, Texas markets. The acquisition added $1.9 billion in total loans and $2.2 billion in total deposits. The merger consideration totaled $377.7 million and consisted of $288.7 million in NBHC common stock and $89.0 million in cash. The core system conversion for this transaction will be completed during the third quarter of 2026. | |
● | During the first quarter of 2026, the Company generated record loan fundings of $805.5 million driving annualized loan growth of 12.4% on top of $1.9 billion in loans added in January 2026 from the Vista acquisition. | |
● | Enhanced shareholder returns by increasing the quarterly dividend by 3% to $0.32 per share and executed $16.1 million of share buybacks during the first quarter. | |
● | Received Moody’s long-term issuer rating of Baa2, and a Baseline Credit Assessment of Baa1 and initiated on-going monitoring by Moody’s. | |
● | In February 2026, the Company closed a public offering of $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.875% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes. The offering was increased to $150.0 million from a $100.0 million initial transaction given strong investor demand from a high-quality institutional investor base. |
Profitability and returns
● | | Net income totaled $20.8 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to net income of $24.2 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2025. During the three months ended March 31, 2026, acquisition and restructuring expenses totaled $11.8 million, after tax. Adjusted net income, which |
47
excludes these items, increased $8.4 million, or 34.6%, to $32.6 million, during the three months ended March 31, 2026. Adjusted earnings per–diluted share totaled $0.72 and $0.63 during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, as a result of both organic growth and growth generated from the strategic acquisition of Vista. | ||
● | Pre-provision net revenue FTE totaled $32.1 million and $42.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Adjusted pre-provision net revenue FTE, which excludes acquisition and restructuring expenses, increased $5.5 million, or 13.1%, to $47.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the same period in the prior year. | |
● | | The return on average assets totaled 0.70% and 0.99% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Excluding acquisition and restructuring expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2026, the adjusted return on average tangible assets increased 11 basis points to 1.20%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. |
● | | The return on average equity was 5.02% and 7.42% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Excluding acquisition and restructuring expenses during the three months ended March 31, 2026, the adjusted return on average tangible common equity increased 115 basis points to 11.79%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. |
Loan portfolio
● | Loans increased $2.2 billion, or 29.3%, to $9.6 billion at March 31, 2026, compared to December 31, 2025. The increase was driven by record quarterly loan fundings totaling $805.5 million in addition to acquired Vista loans totaling $1.9 billion. | |
● | The Company maintained a conservatively structured loan portfolio represented by diverse industries and industry sector concentrations at 15% or less of total loans and all concentration levels remain well below our self-imposed limits. | |
● | Non-owner occupied CRE loans, which are comprised of multiple industry sectors, were 164.7% of the Company’s risk based capital, or 26.4% of total loans, and no specific property type comprised more than 7.0% of total loans at March 31, 2026. | |
● | The Company maintains a low level of non-owner occupied CRE retail properties and office properties. Including available credit, non-owner occupied CRE retail properties and office properties comprised 4.0% and 2.3% of total loans, respectively, at March 31, 2026. Multifamily loans totaled $320.3 million, or 3.3% of total loans at March 31, 2026. | |
● | We do not originate high-dollar non-amortizing or balloon payment mortgage loans to our clients. |
Credit quality
● | Allowance for credit losses totaled 1.18% of total loans at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. | |
● | | The Company continued to prudently manage credit risk in 2026, further strengthening our credit profile. Non-performing loans improved three basis points to 0.31% of total loans at March 31 2026, compared to 0.34% at December 31, 2025. |
● | Criticized loans decreased $10.7 million, or 3.4%, to $303.6 million as of March 31, 2026, compared to December 31, 2025. | |
● | Provision expense for credit losses totaled $4.0 million and $10.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. | |
● | | Net charge-offs of $7.7 million and $15.1 million were recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and annualized net charge-offs to average total loans totaled 0.34% and 0.80% for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. |
Deposits
● | Average total deposits for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $1.8 billion to $10.1 billion, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase was driven by $2.2 billion of total deposits, on a spot basis, related to the Vista acquisition. | |
● | Average transaction deposits for the three months ended March 31, 2026 increased $1.6 billion to $8.8 billion, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, driven by $2.0 billion of transaction deposits, on a spot basis, related to the Vista acquisition. | |
● | | The mix of transaction deposits to total deposits increased 19 basis points to 87.6% at March 31, 2026, compared to March 31, 2025. |
● | Cost of deposits improved nine basis points to 1.94% for the three months ended March 31, 2026, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2025, as a result of our disciplined deposit pricing. | |
● | Approximately 63% of our deposits were FDIC insured at March 31, 2026. |
48
Liquidity
● | The Company prudently manages liquidity and maintains a profile focused on core deposits and stable, long-term and diversified funding sources, including access to Cambr platform deposits. The Company maintains an investment portfolio with a short average duration and targets a neutral interest rate position. | |
● | On-balance sheet liquidity totaled $1.1 billion at March 31, 2026 and was comprised of $472.8 million of cash and $608.9 million of unencumbered investments. | |
● | Liquidity is monitored and managed to ensure that sufficient funds are available on demand to meet our business needs. At March 31, 2026, the Company’s available secured and committed borrowing capacity at the FHLB and FRB totaled $3.8 billion. The Company also accesses a variety of other short-term and long-term unsecured funding sources, which include access to Cambr platform deposits, multiple brokered deposit platform options and lines of credit. | |
● | Our investment securities portfolio has a short average duration and is entirely backed by U.S. government agencies or GSEs, which we believe mitigates the risk of material losses. Regarding the fair value of investment securities, our accumulated other comprehensive loss does not have a material impact on our capital position. |

Key Challenges
Macroeconomic pressures have resulted in volatility and uncertainty in the banking industry and many other industries. Liquidity within the financial services sector remains tight, and we expect the intense competition for deposits throughout our markets to continue. While these are widespread challenges for the banking industry, the Company has not experienced a material impact to our financial condition, operations, client base, liquidity, capital position or risk profile.
Additionally, we face continual challenges implementing our business strategy. These include growing our assets, particularly loans, and deposits amidst intense competition, changing interest rates, adhering to changes in the regulatory environment and identifying and consummating disciplined acquisition and other expansionary opportunities in a competitive and inflationary environment. We will continue to make investments in our digital growth strategy and our digital financial ecosystem 2UniFi, and may also seek to partner with third parties to accelerate growth. 2UniFi may prove difficult to successfully scale and may require additional operational and control systems to manage fraud, cybersecurity, operational, legal and compliance risks.
While Vista integration activities are progressing and remain on track, acquisition integrations present operational and execution challenges. Integration activities require ongoing investments in systems, processes, and personnel. While the acquisition supports our long term growth strategy, the integration process may be more costly or time consuming than anticipated.
Future growth in our interest income will ultimately be dependent on our ability to originate high-quality loans and source other high-quality earning assets such as investment securities as well as our ability to access liquidity and manage our cost of funds. Over the past two years, the Federal Reserve lowered the prevailing interest rates by 175 basis points. While further rate changes remain unclear, our future earnings will be impacted by the Federal Reserve’s future interest rate policy decisions. Management employs risk management policies to monitor and limit exposure to changes in market rates, which is discussed in more detail in the Asset/Liability Management and Interest Rate Risk section of Management’s Discussion and Analysis.
