  • "WaFd delivered strong results in the third quarter of fiscal 2026, with healthy growth in earnings, loans, and equity. Earnings per share increased 15% year-over-year and 2% compared to the March quarter. While overall loans outstanding grew modestly for the quarter, net loans in our active loan portfolios grew at an annualized rate of 10.4%. Growth in net interest income, combined with disciplined expense management, drove our efficiency ratio to 53.7%, and we delivered an 11.0% return on tangible common equity for the quarter. We believe that the market is beginning to recognize WaFd's consistent earnings power — our stock price is up 19% from March 31, with 4.7 million shares repurchased in the first two quarter of the fiscal year. I want to thank our team of bankers for their continued dedication to delivering for our clients and shareholders." 

  • Brent Beardall President and CEO of WaFd Bank

1Metric is a non-GAAP Financial Measure. See page 10 for additional information on our use of non-GAAP Financial Measures.

Balance Sheet Total assets increased to $27.6 billion as of June 30, 2026, compared to $26.7 billion at September 30, 2025, primarily due to the purchase of investment securities during the period. Investment securities increased by $870 million, or 20.8% in the nine months ended June 30, 2026, a result of $1.4 billion of purchases, primarily discount-priced 30-year mortgage backed securities at an expected yield to maturity of 5%. Net loans decreased $71 million to $20.0 billion and cash increased $19 million, or 2.9% during same period.

Customer deposits totaled $20.9 billion as of June 30, 2026, compared to $21.4 billion at September 30, 2025. The effective weighted average interest rate, including non-interest-bearing deposits, was 2.39% as of June 30, 2026, compared to 2.69% at September 30, 2025. Transaction accounts increased by $439 million or 3.6% during the nine months ended June 30, 2026, while time deposits decreased $945 million or 10.3%. As of June 30, 2026, 60.9% of the Company’s deposits were transaction accounts, an increase from 57.4% at September 30, 2025. Core deposits, defined as all transaction accounts and time deposits less than $250,000, totaled 80.6% of deposits at June 30, 2026, up from 77.9% on September 30, 2025. Deposits that are uninsured or not collateralized were 25.4% of total deposits as of June 30, 2026, an increase from 24.7% as of September 30, 2025.

Borrowings totaled $3.3 billion as of June 30, 2026, up from $1.8 billion at September 30, 2025. The effective weighted average interest rate of borrowings was 3.08% as of June 30, 2026, compared to 2.50% at September 30, 2025.

Loan originations for active loan types totaled $1.5 billion for both the second and third fiscal quarters of 2026. Offsetting loan originations for these loan types in each of these quarters were loan repayments of $1.0 billion and $0.9 billion, respectively. Active loan types include the commercial segment and the consumer portfolio. Inactive loan types include all consumer residential portfolios. These loan types had repayments of $299 million during the quarter. Commercial loans represented 96% of all loan originations during the third fiscal quarter of 2026 and consumer loans accounted for the remaining 4%. The period end interest yield on the loan portfolio was 5.33% as of June 30, 2026, a decrease from 5.38% at September 30, 2025.

Tangible common equity per share is a key metric for our management team. For the nine months ended June 30, 2026, tangible book value per share grew to $30.82 at June 30, 2026 from $29.38 as of September 30, 2025. This metric is a non-GAAP Financial Measure. See page 10 for additional information on our use of non-GAAP Financial Measures. During the quarter, the Company repurchased 8,806 shares of common stock at a weighted average price of $36.20 as a result of option exercise activity. Our share repurchase plan currently has a remaining authorization of 8.0 million shares which, depending on share price, may provide a compelling investment alternative.

Return on common shareholders' equity for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 was 9.23% compared to 9.05% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. Adjusted for certain non-operating items, return on equity for the quarter was 8.80% compared to adjusted return on equity of 9.12% the prior quarter.  Return on assets for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 was 0.96%, unchanged from the previous quarter. Adjusted for certain non-operating items, return on assets for the quarter was 0.92% compared to adjusted return on assets of 0.97% the prior quarter. For a reconciliation of these adjusted ratios, see the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section below.

WaFd’s capital ratios are expected to be in line with the March 2026 results which showed the total risk-based capital ratio at 14.4% and common equity tier 1 risk-based capital ratio at 11.4%. All ratios remain above current “well-capitalized” regulatory minimums. In March 2026, federal banking regulators re-proposed revisions to the Basel III Endgame capital framework, which remains subject to finalization following the close of the industry comment period in June 2026. Based on management’s review and analysis, using March 31, 2026 data, WaFd estimates that opting into the revised framework, once finalized, could reduce risk-weighted assets by approximately 12.5%, representing an estimated $317 million of total risk-based capital relief.  We will continue to evaluate this opportunity as the rule is finalized.

Credit Quality Considering the shifting economic and monetary environment, further impacted by recent global developments, credit quality continues to be monitored closely. As of June 30, 2026, non-performing assets increased to $136 million, or 0.49% of total assets, from $132 million, or 0.48%, at March 31, 2026 and decreased from $143 million, or 0.54%, at September 30, 2025. The decrease compared to September is the result of non-accrual loans decreasing by $1.1 million, or 1%, since September 30, 2025 combined with decreases in real estate owned ("REO") of $2.9 million and other property owned of $3.3 million during the same time frame. Delinquent loans increased to 0.75% of total loans at June 30, 2026, compared to 0.60% at September 30, 2025 but decreased compared to 0.78% at March 31, 2026.

The allowance for credit losses (including the reserve for unfunded commitments) totaled $234 million as of June 30, 2026, and was 1.08% of gross loans outstanding, as compared to $221 million, or 1.04% of gross loans outstanding, as of September 30, 2025. This increase was the result in growth in the active loan portfolio, specifically C&I and Construction loans, in addition to concerns related to possible losses on adversely classified loans. Net charge-offs were $1.6 million for the third fiscal quarter of 2026, compared to $0.6 million for the prior quarter.

Profitability Net interest income was $181 million for the third fiscal quarter of 2026, an increase of $3.8 million or 2% from the prior quarter.  The increase in net interest income was primarily due to a basis point increase in the rate earned on interest earning assets combined with a basis point decrease in the rate paid on interest bearing liabilities. As a result of these minor changes, the net interest margin held steady at 2.81% for the third fiscal quarter of 2026.

Total non-interest income was $24.2 million for the third fiscal quarter of 2026 compared to $19.8 million the prior quarter. The increase compared to the prior quarter was primarily due to $3.2 million of gains recognized on the sale of bank real estate combined with lower losses recognized on equity method investments.

Total non-interest expense was $110.3 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2026, an increase of $0.5 million, or 0.4%, from the prior quarter. The increase is the result of small increases in compensation, FDIC insurance and technology expenses.

The Company recorded an $11.0 million provision for credit losses in the third fiscal quarter of 2026 compared to a provision of $4.0 million the prior quarter. The provision for loan losses in the quarter ended June 30, 2026 was the result of growth in the active loan portfolio, specifically C&I and Construction loans, in addition to concerns related to possible losses on adversely classified loans. $1.6 million of net charge-offs were taken during the quarter.

Income tax expense totaled $18.2 million in the third fiscal quarter of 2026, as compared to $18.3 million for the prior quarter. The effective tax rate for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 was 21.6% compared to 21.8% for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. The Company’s effective tax rate may vary from the statutory rate mainly due to state taxes, tax-exempt income and tax-credit investments.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company has presented certain non-GAAP measures within this document to remove the effect of certain income and expenses to provide investors with information useful in understanding our financial performance. The Company considers these items to be non-operating in nature as they are items that management does not consider indicative of the Company's on-going financial performance. We believe that the tables presented reflect our on-going performance in the periods presented and, accordingly, are useful to consider in addition to our GAAP financial results. These measures should not be considered a substitution for GAAP basis disclosures.

Other companies may use similarly titled non-GAAP financial measures that are calculated differently from the way they are calculated herein. Because of this, our non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similar measures used by others. We caution investors not to place undue reliance on such measures. See the following unaudited tables for reconciliations of our non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Important Cautionary Statements

The foregoing information should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, notes and other information contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K.

This press release contains statements about the Company’s future that are not statements of historical or current fact. These statements are “forward-looking statements” for purposes of applicable securities laws and are based on current information and/or management's good faith belief as to future events. Words such as “expects,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “intends,” “forecasts,” “may,” “potential,” “projects,” and other similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “should,” “would,” and “could” are intended to help identify such forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Although the Company believes any such statements are based on reasonable assumptions, forward-looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance, and you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements.
