Business Wire
Independent Bank Corp. (Nasdaq Global Select Market: INDB), parent of Rockland Trust Company, today announced 2026 first quarter net income of $79.9 million, or $1.63 per diluted share, as compared to 2025 fourth quarter net income of $75.3 million, or $1.52 per diluted share. Excluding merger-related costs associated with the Company’s third quarter 2025 acquisition of Enterprise Bancorp, Inc. (“Enterprise”) and its subsidiary, Enterprise Bank, and their related tax effects, operating net income was $82.1 million, or $1.68 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2026, compared to operating net income of $84.4 million, or $1.70 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2025(1).
CEO STATEMENT
“Our first quarter results represent another step forward in driving improved profitability while remaining disciplined in our strategies during these uncertain times,” said Jeffrey Tengel, the Chief Executive Officer of Independent Bank Corp. and Rockland Trust Company. “We are prioritizing our long-term relationship banking model while prudently investing in our future and returning capital to our shareholders.”
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

The Company’s net interest margin of 3.90% increased 13 basis points compared to the prior quarter, while the adjusted margin increased 8 basis points to 3.72%(1).

Loan balances of $18.4 billion at March 31, 2026 decreased $78.3 million, or 0.4%, compared to the prior quarter.
The Company repurchased approximately 802,000 shares for $63.3 million during the first quarter of 2026.

BALANCE SHEET
Total assets of $24.8 billion at March 31, 2026 decreased $129.3 million, or 0.5%, compared to the prior quarter, driven primarily by decreased loan and cash balances.
Total loans of $18.4 billion at March 31, 2026 decreased $78.3 million, or 0.4%, compared to the prior quarter:
The commercial and industrial portfolio grew $39.7 million, or 0.9% (3.5% annualized), despite runoff of $38.7 million attributable to the Company’s strategic exit from the dealer finance business.
Commercial real estate and construction decreased $89.6 million, or 0.9%, due to elevated payoffs and amortization of balances, including a reduction of $55.9 million in the Company’s office portfolio.
The total consumer portfolio decreased $28.3 million, or 0.7%, primarily attributable to a decline in the residential real estate portfolio of $31.3 million, or 1.1%, reflecting lower seasonal volume compared to the prior quarter. This decrease was partially offset by a modest increase in the home equity portfolio of $10.1 million, or 0.8% (3.2% annualized).
Total deposits decreased by $29.3 million, or 0.1%, to $20.1 billion at March 31, 2026, as compared to the prior quarter:
Average deposits decreased $309.9 million, or 1.5%, compared to the prior quarter, driven primarily by seasonality in business operating balances.
Overall core deposits comprised 83.8% of total deposits at March 31, 2026, as compared to 83.7% at December 31, 2025.
Total noninterest bearing demand deposits were 28.0% and 27.8% of total deposits at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
The total cost of deposits for the first quarter of 1.36% reflected a decrease of 10 basis points compared to the prior quarter.
Total period end borrowings decreased by $49.6 million, or 6.0%, during the first quarter of 2026, reflecting approximately $100 million in net paydowns on Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings, partially offset by $50 million advanced on a working capital line of credit.
The Company’s total securities portfolio of $3.4 billion increased by $62.4 million, or 1.9% (7.6% annualized), from the prior quarter:
New purchases of $168.4 million in the available for sale portfolio were partially offset by maturities, calls, and paydowns in the combined available for sale and held to maturity portfolios during the quarter.
Total securities represented 13.6% and 13.3% of total assets at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Stockholders’ equity at March 31, 2026 decreased $23.7 million, or 0.7%, compared to December 31, 2025, as strong earnings were offset by the impact of share repurchases, dividends, and unrealized losses on available for sale securities recognized in other comprehensive income during the quarter:
During the first quarter of 2026, the Company executed on its previously announced $150 million stock repurchase plan, buying back approximately 802,000 shares of common stock for $63.3 million at an average price per share of $78.85.
The Company’s ratio of common equity to assets of 14.29% at March 31, 2026 represented a decrease of 2 basis points from December 31, 2025.
The Company’s ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets of 9.86% at March 31, 2026 represented a decrease of 2 basis points from the prior quarter and a decrease of 92 basis points from the year ago period(1).
The Company’s book value per share increased by $0.51, or 0.7%, to $72.92 at March 31, 2026 as compared to the prior quarter.
The Company’s tangible book value per share at March 31, 2026 grew by $0.31, or 0.7%, from the prior quarter to $47.86, and grew by 0.1% from the year ago period(1).
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income of $212.5 million for the first quarter of 2026 was flat compared to the prior quarter:
The net interest margin of 3.90% increased 13 basis points when compared to the prior quarter, benefitting from fixed rate asset repricing, lower deposit costs, and 17 basis points of purchase accounting accretion in the first quarter of 2026 as compared to 11 basis points in the prior quarter. Excluding purchase accounting accretion and other non-core items, the adjusted margin of 3.72%(1) increased 8 basis points.
Total loan yields increased 3 basis points to 5.77% from 5.74%, driven primarily by fixed rate loan repricing and purchase accounting accretion, partially offset by the full quarter impact of Federal Reserve rate cuts made during the fourth quarter of 2025. Similarly, securities yields increased 12 basis points to 3.08% for the current quarter as compared to the prior quarter.
The Company’s overall cost of funding decreased 8 basis points to 1.52% for the first quarter of 2026 as compared to 1.60% for the prior quarter, driven by a 10 basis point reduction in total cost of deposits.
NONINTEREST INCOME
Noninterest income of $40.3 million for the first quarter of 2026 represented a decrease of $1.2 million, or 2.9%, as compared to the prior quarter. Significant changes in noninterest income for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the prior quarter included the following:
Interchange and ATM fees decreased by $363,000, or 6.7%, driven by seasonally lower transaction volumes.
Overall investment and advisory income increased $372,000, or 2.7%, driven primarily by higher asset based fee revenue and insurance commissions compared to the prior quarter. Total assets under administration remained consistent at $9.2 billion as of March 31, 2026.
Loan level derivative income decreased by $322,000, or 26.1%, reflecting volatility in customer demand.
Other noninterest income decreased by $1.1 million, or 13.8%, driven primarily by a decrease in investment income on equity securities.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Noninterest expense of $142.9 million for the first quarter of 2026 represented a decrease of $11.5 million, or 7.4%, as compared to the prior quarter. Significant changes in noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the prior quarter included the following:
The Company incurred merger and acquisition expenses of $3.0 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $12.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, all of which were related to the Company’s acquisition of Enterprise. The majority of the 2026 first quarter merger expenses related to final severance payments, and vendor and systems contract terminations.
Salaries and employee benefits decreased by $843,000, or 1.0%, driven primarily by decreased incentive compensation, retirement benefits, and lower base salaries, partially offset by higher payroll taxes and medical plan insurance.
Occupancy and equipment expenses increased by $1.7 million, or 10.9%, driven primarily by a $1.9 million increase in snow removal costs for the first quarter of 2026.
FDIC assessment decreased $731,000, or 18.0%, due to quarterly timing differences.
Other noninterest expense decreased by $2.4 million, or 7.8%, driven primarily by decreases in consultant fees of $790,000, legal fees of $755,000, and net valuation decreases on equity securities of $384,000.
TAX RATE
The Company’s quarterly effective tax rate increased to 23.38% for the first quarter of 2026 from 20.54% for the prior quarter, due to one-time discrete adjustments combined with revised estimates based on full year results in the prior quarter.
ASSET QUALITY
During the first quarter, the Company’s key asset quality activity and metrics were as follows:
Nonperforming loans increased to $96.6 million at March 31, 2026, as compared to $83.6 million at December 31, 2025, representing 0.52% and 0.45% of total loans, respectively.
Delinquencies as a percentage of total loans increased 9 basis points from the prior quarter to 0.41% at March 31, 2026.
Net charge-offs decreased slightly to $4.8 million, as compared to $5.3 million for the prior quarter, representing 0.11% and 0.12%, respectively, of average loans annualized. The largest individual charge-off in the quarter was $4.2 million related to a commercial real estate loan that was partially reserved for in the prior quarter.
The first quarter provision for credit losses increased to $5.5 million, as compared to $4.8 million for the prior quarter.
Total criticized and classified commercial loans of $575.5 million, or 4.0% of total commercial loans, increased $102.7 million, or 21.7%, as compared to the prior quarter.
The allowance for credit losses on total loans increased to $190.6 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $189.9 million at December 31, 2025 and represented 1.03% of total loans at both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

unanticipated loan delinquencies, loss of collateral, decreased service revenues, and other potential negative effects on the Company’s local economies or the Company’s business caused by adverse weather conditions and natural disasters, changes in climate, public health crises or other external events and any actions taken by governmental authorities in response to any such events;
adverse changes or volatility in the local real estate market;
changes in interest rates and any resulting impact on interest earning assets and/or interest bearing liabilities, the level of voluntary prepayments on loans and the receipt of payments on mortgage-backed securities, decreased loan demand or increased difficulty in the ability of borrowers to repay variable rate loans;
risks related to the Company’s acquisition activities, including disruption to current plans and operations; difficulties in customer and employee retention; fees, expenses and charges related to these transactions being significantly higher than anticipated; impairment of goodwill and/or other intangibles; and the Company’s inability to achieve expected revenues, cost savings, synergies, and other benefits at levels or within the timeframes originally anticipated;

changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System;
higher than expected tax expense, including as a result of failure to comply with general tax laws and changes in tax laws;

a deterioration in the conditions of the securities markets;
a deterioration of the credit rating for U.S. long-term sovereign debt or uncertainties surrounding the federal budget;
inability to adapt to changes in information technology, including changes to industry accepted delivery models driven by a migration to the internet as a means of service delivery, including any inability to effectively implement new technology-driven products, such as artificial intelligence (“AI”);
electronic or other fraudulent activity within the financial services industry, especially in the commercial banking sector;
adverse changes in consumer spending and savings habits;
the effect of laws and regulations regarding the financial services industry, including the need to invest in technology to meet heightened regulatory expectations or the introduction of new requirements or expectations resulting in increased costs of compliance or required adjustments to strategy;

operational risks related to the Company and its customers’ reliance on information technology; cyber threats, attacks, intrusions, and fraud; and outages or other issues impacting the Company or its third party service providers which could lead to interruptions or disruptions of the Company’s operating systems, including systems that are customer facing, and adversely impact the Company’s business;
risks related to the development and use of AI by the Company, its third-party vendors, clients and counterparties; and
any unexpected material adverse changes in the Company’s operations or earnings.
The Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements as the Company’s business and its forward-looking statements involve substantial known and unknown risks and uncertainties described above and in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q (“Risk Factors”). Except as required by law, the Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update publicly any such forward-looking statements, whether in response to new information, future events or otherwise. Any public statements or disclosures by the Company following this release which modify or impact any of the forward-looking statements contained in this release will be deemed to modify or supersede such statements in this release. In addition to the information set forth in this press release, you should carefully consider the Risk Factors.
This press release and the appendices attached to it contain financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). This information may include operating net income and operating earnings per share (“EPS”), operating return on average assets, operating return on average common equity, operating return on average tangible common equity, adjusted net interest margin (“adjusted margin”), tangible book value per share and the tangible common equity ratio.
Operating net income, operating EPS, operating return on average assets, and operating return on average common equity exclude items that management believes are unrelated to the Company’s core banking business such as merger and acquisition expenses, and other items, if applicable. Management uses operating net income and related ratios and operating EPS to measure the strength of the Company’s core banking business and to identify trends that may to some extent be obscured by such items. Management reviews its adjusted margin to determine any items that may impact the net interest margin that may be one-time in nature or not reflective of its core operating environment, such as significant purchase accounting adjustments or other adjustments such as nonaccrual interest reversals/recoveries and prepayment penalties. Management believes that adjusting for these items to arrive at an adjusted margin provides additional insight into the operating environment and how management decisions impact the net interest margin.
Management also supplements its evaluation of financial performance with analysis of tangible book value per share (which is computed by dividing stockholders’ equity less goodwill and identifiable intangible assets, or “tangible common equity,” by common shares outstanding), the tangible common equity ratio (which is computed by dividing tangible common equity by “tangible assets,” defined as total assets less goodwill and other intangibles), and return on average tangible common equity (which is computed by dividing net income by average tangible common equity). The Company has included information on tangible book value per share, the tangible common equity ratio and return on average tangible common equity because management believes that investors may find it useful to have access to the same analytical tools used by management. As a result of merger and acquisition activity, the Company has recognized goodwill and other intangible assets in conjunction with business combination accounting principles. Excluding the impact of goodwill and other intangibles in measuring asset and capital values for the ratios provided, along with other bank standard capital ratios, provides a framework to compare the capital adequacy of the Company to other companies in the financial services industry.
These non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results and other financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. An item which management excludes when computing these non-GAAP measures can be of substantial importance to the Company’s results for any particular quarter or year. The Company’s non-GAAP performance measures, including operating net income, operating EPS, operating return on average assets, operating return on average common equity, adjusted margin, tangible book value per share and the tangible common equity ratio, are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may be presented by other companies.

(1) The total amount of adjustment to present interest income and yield on a fully tax-equivalent basis was $1.5 million, $1.4 million, and $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, December 31, 2025, and March 31, 2025, respectively, determined by applying the Company’s marginal tax rates in effect during each respective quarter.
(2) Interest rate spread represents the difference between weighted average yield on interest-earning assets and the weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities.
(3) Net interest margin represents annualized net interest income as a percentage of average interest-earning assets.
(4) Interest paid amounts within the savings and interest checking and money market categories for the three months ended December 31, 2025 vary from amounts previously reported in the Company’s fourth quarter 2025 earnings release. These reported amounts reflect a reclassification of approximately $3.0 million in interest paid from the money market category to the savings and interest checking category. The corresponding yields presented above have also been revised to reflect this reclassification.
