Consolidated financial performance:

Quarterly net interest income compared to the fourth quarter of 2023:

• Net interest income was $608.5 million compared to $571.0 million.
• Net interest margin was 3.39 percent compared to 3.42 percent. The yield on interest-earning assets decreased by 1 basis point, and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities remained flat.
• Average interest-earning assets totaled $71.9 billion and increased by $4.4 billion, or 6.4 percent.
• Average loans and leases totaled $52.3 billion and increased by $1.9 billion, or 3.8 percent.
• Average deposits totaled $64.8 billion and increased by $4.8 billion, or 8.1 percent.

Quarterly provision for credit losses:

• The provision for credit losses was $63.5 million in the quarter, contributing to a $1.8 million increase in the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases from the prior quarter. The provision for credit losses was $54.0 million in the prior quarter, and $36.0 million a year ago.
• Net charge-offs were $60.9 million, compared to $35.4 million in the prior quarter, and $34.0 million a year ago. The ratio of net charge-offs to average loans and leases was 0.47 percent, compared to 0.27 percent in both the prior quarter and a year ago.
• The allowance for credit losses on loans and leases represented 1.31 percent of total loans and leases, compared to 1.32 percent at September 30, 2024, and 1.25 percent at December 31, 2023. The allowance represented 149 percent of nonperforming loans and leases, compared to 162 percent at September 30, 2024, and 303 percent at December 31, 2023.

Quarterly non-interest income compared to the fourth quarter of 2023:

• Total non-interest income was $52.5 million compared to $63.8 million, a decrease of $11.3 million. Total non-interest income includes $56.9 million and $16.8 million of losses on sales of investment securities for the fourth quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively. Excluding these items, total non-interest income increased $28.8 million. The increase is primarily attributable to direct investment gains, a credit valuation adjustment, and the addition of Ametros.

Quarterly non-interest expense compared to the fourth quarter of 2023:

• Total non-interest expense was $340.4 million compared to $377.2 million, a decrease of $36.8 million. In the fourth quarter of 2023, total non-interest expense included $47.2 million related to the FDIC special assessment and a net $30.7 million of merger related expenses. Excluding those charges, total non-interest expense increased $41.0 million. The increase is primarily attributable to the addition of Ametros and the related intangible amortization, higher performance-based incentives, investments in human capital and technology, and a contribution to the Webster Charitable Foundation.

Quarterly income taxes compared to the fourth quarter of 2023:

• Income tax expense was $79.3 million compared to $36.2 million, and the effective tax rate was 30.9 percent compared to 16.3 percent. The higher tax expense and tax rate in the current period reflects a $29.4 million deferred tax asset valuation adjustment related to state and local net operating loss carryforwards, which impacted the rate by 11.4 percentage points. The lower effective tax rate in the period a year ago reflected the recognition of a discrete tax benefit attributable to tax return true-up adjustments, along with a lower level of pre-tax income in that period.

Investment securities:

• Total investment securities, net were $17.5 billion, compared to $17.2 billion at September 30, 2024, and $16.0 billion at December 31, 2023. The carrying value of the available-for-sale portfolio included $712.9 million of net unrealized losses, compared to $486.1 million at September 30, 2024, and $708.7 million at December 31, 2023. The carrying value of the held-to-maturity portfolio does not reflect $991.2 million of net unrealized losses, compared to $677.0 million at September 30, 2024, and $810.2 million at December 31, 2023.

Loans and leases:

• Total loans and leases were $52.5 billion, compared to $51.9 billion at September 30, 2024, and $50.7 billion at December 31, 2023.

Compared to a year ago, commercial loans and leases increased by $904.9 million, commercial real estate loans increased by $233.3 million, residential mortgages increased by $625.7 million, and consumer loans increased by $15.2 million.
• Loan originations for the portfolio were $3.4 billion, compared to $2.8 billion in the prior quarter, and $3.2 billion a year ago.

Asset quality:

• Total nonperforming loans and leases were $461.3 million, or 0.88 percent of total loans and leases, compared to $425.6 million, or 0.82 percent of total loans and leases, at September 30, 2024, and $209.5 million, or 0.41 percent of total loans and leases, at December 31, 2023.
• Past due loans and leases were $88.6 million, compared to $108.9 million at September 30, 2024, and $46.6 million at December 31, 2023. The decrease from prior quarter is driven primarily by commercial non-mortgage and residential mortgages, partially offset by commercial real estate.

Capital:

• The return on average common stockholders’ equity and the return on average tangible common stockholders’ equity¹ were 7.80 percent and 12.73 percent, respectively, compared to 8.67 percent and 14.29 percent, respectively, in the third quarter of 2024, and 9.03 percent and 14.49 percent, respectively, in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue decreased $22.7 million, to $264.7 million, in the quarter as compared to prior year. Net interest income decreased $21.5 million, to $330.4 million, primarily driven by lower loan yields coupled with lower deposit interest spread. Non-interest income increased $8.3 million, to $41.0 million, primarily driven by direct investment gains, higher deposit and cash management fees, and increased fees from trust and investment services, partially offset by lower fees from client hedging activities and lower loan servicing fees. Non-interest expense increased $9.5 million, to $106.8 million, primarily driven by continued investments in technology and increased compensation-related expenses.

Healthcare Financial Services

Webster’s Healthcare Financial Services segment is comprised of HSA Bank and Ametros, which was acquired in the first quarter of 2024. This segment offers consumer-directed healthcare solutions that include health savings accounts, health reimbursement arrangements, administration of medical insurance claim settlements, flexible spending accounts, and commuter benefits. Accounts are distributed nationwide directly to employers and individual consumers, as well as through national and regional insurance carriers, benefit consultants, and financial advisors. At December 31, 2024, Healthcare Financial Services had $15.3 billion in total footings comprising $10.0 billion in deposits and $5.3 billion in assets under administration through linked investment accounts.

Total footings		$15,289	$12,930			18.2

Pre-tax net revenue increased $7.3 million, to $63.7 million, in the quarter as compared to prior year. Net interest income increased $17.1 million, to $95.2 million, primarily due to $12.0 million from Ametros coupled with deposit growth at HSA Bank. Non-interest income increased $4.9 million, to $25.1 million, primarily due to $6.1 million from Ametros, offset by a decrease of $1.2 million from HSA Bank. The decrease in HSA Bank was the net result of lower customer account fees partially offset by higher interchange revenue. Non-interest expense increased $14.7 million, to $56.7 million, primarily due to $11.4 million from Ametros. HSA Bank expenses were $3.3 million higher due to higher service contract expense related to account growth and support costs.

Consumer Banking

Webster’s Consumer Banking segment serves consumer and business banking customers primarily throughout southern New England and the New York metro and suburban markets. Consumer Banking is comprised of the residential and consumer lending, private client, and business banking business units, as well as a distribution network consisting of 196 banking centers and 347 ATMs, a customer care center, and a full range of digital and mobile-based banking services. Additionally, Webster Investment Services provides investment services to consumers and small business owners within Webster’s targeted markets and retail footprint. At December 31, 2024, Consumer Banking had $11.9 billion in loans and $27.3 billion in deposits, as well as $8.0 billion in assets under administration.

Pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue decreased $14.9 million, to $110.0 million, in the quarter as compared to prior year. Net interest income decreased $11.7 million, to $202.2 million, primarily driven by higher rates paid on deposits, partially offset by higher loan yields, as well as loan and deposit balance growth. Non-interest income decreased $0.5 million, to $27.0 million, primarily driven by lower loan servicing fees and a decrease in gains on sales of loans, partially offset by increased deposit related fees and higher miscellaneous fee income.

Any forward-looking statement made by Webster in this release speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause Webster’s actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for Webster to predict all of them. Webster undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of net income, return on average tangible common stockholders’ equity, and other performance ratios, in each case as adjusted, is included in the accompanying selected financial highlights table.

Webster believes that providing certain non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with information useful in understanding its financial performance, performance trends, and financial position. Webster utilizes these measures for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Webster, as well as securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties, also use these measures to compare peer company operating performance. Webster believes that its presentation and discussion, together with the accompanying reconciliations, provides additional clarity of factors and trends affecting its business and allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to management.

The efficiency ratio, which represents the costs expended to generate a dollar of revenue, is calculated excluding certain non-operational items. The return on average tangible common stockholders’ equity (“ROATCE”) represents net income available to common stockholders, adjusted for the tax-effected amortization of intangible assets, as a percentage of average stockholders’ equity less average preferred stock and average goodwill and net intangible assets. The tangible equity ratio represents stockholders’ equity less goodwill and net intangible assets divided by total assets less goodwill and net intangible assets. The tangible common equity ratio represents stockholders’ equity less preferred stock and goodwill and net intangible assets divided by total assets less goodwill and net intangible assets. Tangible book value per common share represents stockholders’ equity less preferred stock and goodwill and net intangible assets divided by common shares outstanding at the end of the period. Core deposits reflect total deposits less certificates of deposit and brokered certificates of deposit. Adjusted pre-tax net income, adjusted net income available to common stockholders, adjusted diluted earnings per share (“EPS”), adjusted ROATCE, and adjusted return on average assets (“ROAA”) are calculated excluding losses on sales of investment securities, which have been tax-effected, and a deferred tax valuation adjustment.

These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures and results, and Webster strongly encourages investors to review its consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.

Refer the tables beginning on page 19 for Non-GAAP to GAAP reconciliations.

(1) In order to provide the users of the Company’s financial statements with a more transparent view of the actual consolidated average balances that are used in the calculation of net interest margin, the Company has recast, in the above table, certain consolidated average balances for the three months ended December 31, 2023, to reflect a change in presentation being applied retrospectively. Specifically, adjustments were made to exclude unsettled trades of $142.4 million and available-for-sale unrealized losses of $1.1 billion from investment securities, and to exclude a $28.8 million basis adjustment related to a de-designated fair value hedge from long-term debt. Rather, effective as of December 31, 2024, these amounts are being presented in non-interest-earning assets and non-interest-bearing liabilities, respectively. There was no change to the related yields/rates, net interest income, or net interest margin that had been previously disclosed.

(1) In order to provide the users of the Company’s financial statements with a more transparent view of the actual consolidated average balances that are used in the calculation of net interest margin, the Company has recast, in the above table, certain consolidated average balances for the twelve months ended December 31, 2023, to reflect a change in presentation being applied retrospectively. Specifically, adjustments were made to exclude unsettled trades of $108.9 million and available-for-sale unrealized losses of $895.8 million from investment securities, and to exclude a $30.8 million basis adjustment related to a de-designated fair value hedge from long-term debt. Rather, effective as of December 31, 2024, these amounts are being presented in non-interest-earning assets and non-interest-bearing liabilities, respectively. There was no change to the related yields/rates, net interest income, or net interest margin that had been previously disclosed.
