The Board of Directors of the Company voted to declare a cash dividend of $0.34 per share to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 21, 2026, payable on June 18, 2026. This represents an increase in the cash dividend of $0.02 per share from $0.32 per share last quarter. The dividend equates to a 4.19% annualized yield based on the $32.45 closing share price of the Company's common stock on March 31, 2026, the last trading day of the first quarter 2026. Additionally, the Board authorized the repurchase of up to 5% of the Company's outstanding common stock, representing approximately 837,000 shares as of March 31, 2026 under a share repurchase plan (the "Plan"). The Plan, which remains subject to regulatory approval, is authorized to last no longer than twelve months.FINANCIAL CONDITION (Quarter results for March 31, 2026 compared to December 31, 2025)
Total assets remained constant at $4.7 billion at the end of the first quarter 2026, the less than 1% change was primarily due to increased deposits offset by paydowns in total borrowings and loans during the quarter.Total cash and cash equivalents were $82.2 million at the end of the first quarter 2026, compared to $80.8 million at the end of the fourth quarter 2025. Interest-earning deposits with other banks increased to $46.6 million at the end of the first quarter 2026, compared to $35.9 million at the end of the fourth quarter 2025 and yielded 3.90% and 4.53%, respectively. The increase in cash balances was driven primarily by loan payoffs during the quarter.Available-for-sale debt securities were $598.0 million compared to $597.4 million at the end of the fourth quarter 2025. Portfolio unrealized losses increased to $45.7 million at quarter-end compared to $41.7 million at the end of the fourth quarter 2025 due to the interest rate environment. During the quarter there were purchases of $25.2 million, paydowns and calls of $19.3 million and net accretion of $411 thousand. The quarter-to-date weighted average yield of the securities portfolio was 4.05% compared to 4.03% at the end of the fourth quarter 2025.

Commercial real estate loans decreased $30.2 million primarily due to one early payoff of $14.4 million and $24.4 million in loans that matured and paid off during the quarter. Commercial and industrial loans increased 24% on an annualized basis and included $16.6 million of originations during the quarter. Residential real estate loans decreased $8.1 million during the quarter primarily driven by increased prepayment activity and offset in part by a $12.0 million residential loan purchase. Loans held for sale were $11.5 million in the first quarter 2026 compared to $5.3 million in the fourth quarter 2025 as we originated $23.6 million in loans held for sale and sold $16.2 million in loans during the quarter.The allowance for credit losses ("ACL") on loans remained stable at $34.3 million at the end of the first quarter 2026 compared to $34.1 million at the end of the fourth quarter 2025. The allowance for credit losses to total loans coverage ratio for the first quarter 2026 was in line with the fourth quarter 2025 at 0.96% versus 0.94%.Premises and equipment increased in the first quarter 2026 to $58.9 million compared to $58.2 million at the end of the fourth quarter 2025 driven by renovation projects.Bank owned life insurance decreased $6.4 million or 7% driven by death benefit pay outs that occurred at the end of the first quarter 2026 offset by increases in cash surrender value.Total deposits were $3.9 billion at the end of the first quarter 2026 compared to $3.8 billion at the end of the fourth quarter of 2025. The increase was driven primarily by $17.2 million in new customer non-maturity deposits. Time deposits increased $8.2 million during the quarter due to $4.8 million in new customer time deposits and an $18.0 million increase in brokered deposits, which was offset in part by maturities.Total borrowings decreased $53.9 million in the first quarter 2026 to $215.7 million compared to $269.6 million in the fourth quarter 2025. The decrease was driven by cash inflows from loan payoffs and increased deposits.The Company's book value per share was $32.13 at the end of the first quarter 2026 compared to $31.88 at the end of the fourth quarter 2025. Tangible book value per share (non-GAAP) was $22.71 at the end of the first quarter 2026, compared to $22.41 at the end of the fourth quarter 2025.RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (Quarter results for March 31, 2026 compared to March 31, 2025)
The net interest margin was 3.54% in the first quarter 2026 compared to 3.17% in the same quarter 2025. As loan balances grew year-over-year the yield on loans expanded 8 basis points to 5.50% compared to 5.42% in the same period of 2025. Interest-bearing deposit costs decreased year-over-year to 2.19% compared to 2.52% in the same period of 2025.Total interest and dividend income increased by 16% or $7.7 million to $55.3 million in the first quarter 2026 compared to $47.5 million in the prior year. Yields on earning assets grew to 5.27% in the first quarter 2026 compared to 5.16% in the first quarter 2025. The increase is driven by year-over-year loan yield expansion primarily due to the acquisition of $413.4 million in loans from the acquisition of Woodsville Guaranty Savings Bank ("Woodsville"). The yield on commercial real estate loans grew to 5.68% in the first quarter 2026 from 5.58% in the first quarter 2025. The residential loan yield increased to 4.64% for the first quarter 2026 from 4.22% in the first quarter of 2025. Total loan yield growth was partially offset by a decrease in the commercial and industrial yield to 6.13% for the first quarter 2026 from 6.57% in the first quarter 2025 driven by the decrease in rates of adjustable-rate loans.Total interest expense decreased $153 thousand in the first quarter 2026 compared to the first quarter 2025. Deposit costs were down $623 thousand year-over-year. Borrowing costs increased $470 thousand, or 16% year-over-year, driven by the subordinated debt acquired from Woodsville.The provision for credit losses on loans in the first quarter 2026 was $305 thousand compared to a recapture of $57 thousand in the same period of 2025. The provision reflects minimal net charge-offs of $42 thousand while credit quality remains strong. There was no provision for investment losses in the current year compared to a $636 thousand provision in the first quarter 2025. We had a loss on available-for-sale debt securities of $1.0 million during the first quarter 2026. The loss relates to a write-down on a previously identified corporate bond with continued deteriorated credit quality that the Company does not intend to hold until recovery of the amortized cost basis.Non-interest income increased $1.5 million in the first quarter 2026 to $10.4 million compared to $8.9 million in the same quarter 2025 primarily driven by a $1.3 million gain on death benefit from bank owned life insurance. Trust management fee income increased $199 thousand driven by the 7%, or $183.5 million, increase in assets under management compared to the same period of 2025. As noted above there was an additional write-down on one corporate debt security resulting in a loss on available-for-sale debt securities of $1.0 million during the first quarter 2026.Non-interest expenses increased $5.2 million to $29.8 million in the first quarter 2026 compared to $24.7 million in the first quarter 2025 driven by $1.5 million in expenses related to the Woodsville acquisition. Salaries and benefits increased $2.0 million to $15.8 million in the first quarter 2026 compared to $13.7 million in the first quarter 2025 primarily due to additional salary costs associated with the retained Woodsville personnel. Occupancy and equipment increased $711 thousand driven primarily by higher maintenance contract costs from the acquisition of Woodsville. Amortization of intangibles increased $349 thousand due to the acquisition of Woodsville. Other expenses increased $854 thousand for the first quarter 2026 compared to the first quarter 2025 primarily due to increases in software expenses. Loss on sale of premises and equipment was $134 thousand in the first quarter 2026 driven by a building sale.Income tax expense was $3.6 million for the first quarter 2026 compared to $2.5 million for the first quarter of 2025, respectively. Our GAAP effective tax rate for the first quarter 2026 was 21.09% and 19.57% in the first quarter 2025 and the effective tax rate on core earnings (Non-GAAP) was 21.89% and 22.98%, respectively.BACKGROUND

This document contains certain non-GAAP financial measures in addition to results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP measures are intended to provide the reader with additional supplemental perspectives on operating results, performance trends, and financial condition. Non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP measures; they should be read and used in conjunction with the Company's GAAP financial information. Because non-GAAP financial measures presented in this document are not measurements determined in accordance with GAAP and are susceptible to varying calculations, these non-GAAP financial measures, as presented, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures presented by other companies. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures is provided below. In all cases, it should be understood that non-GAAP measures do not depict amounts that accrue directly to the benefit of shareholders. An item which management excludes when computing non-GAAP core earnings can be of substantial importance to the Company's results for any particular quarter or year. Each non-GAAP measure used by the Company in this report as supplemental financial data should be considered in conjunction with the Company's GAAP financial information.The Company utilizes the non-GAAP measure of core earnings in evaluating operating trends, including components for core revenue and expense. These measures exclude amounts which the Company views as unrelated to its normalized operations, including gains/losses on securities, premises, equipment and other real estate owned, acquisition costs, restructuring costs, legal settlements, and systems conversion costs. Non-GAAP adjustments are presented net of an adjustment for income tax expense.The Company also calculates core earnings per share based on its measure of core earnings. The Company views these amounts as important to understanding its operating trends, particularly due to the impact of accounting standards related to acquisition activity. Analysts also rely on these measures in estimating and evaluating the Company's performance. Management also believes that the computation of non-GAAP core earnings and core earnings per share may facilitate the comparison of the Company to other companies in the financial services industry. The Company also adjusts certain equity related measures to exclude intangible assets due to the importance of these measures to the investment community.###CONTACTSJosephine Iannelli; EVP, Chief Financial Officer & Treasurer; (207) 288-3314TABLE INDEXCONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL SCHEDULES (UNAUDITED) ASelected Financial HighlightsBBalance SheetsCLoan and Deposit AnalysisDStatements of IncomeEStatements of Income (Five Quarter Trend)FAverage Yields and CostsGAverage BalancesHAsset Quality AnalysisI-JReconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Five Quarter Trend) and Supplementary DataBAR HARBOR BANKSHARES
