Quick Insights

Rising funding costs caused net interest margin to decline 6 basis points, with management projecting full-year margin to be at the low end of the 3.90%-3.95% range.

AUB maintained 2026 targets of $29B-$30B in loans, $31B-$32B in deposits, and plans to accelerate share repurchases while remaining flexible in response to interest rate and capital changes.

Higher rates may weigh on mortgage and loan activity, deposit competition may pressure funding costs, and CRE construction is projected to slow due to rising financing costs. Management emphasizes pricing discipline and funding focus as mitigations.
