WEBSTER FINANCIAL CORP 8-K

What Happened

• Webster Financial Corporation (WBS) announced via Form 8-K (filed April 28, 2026) that it issued a press release reporting its results of operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to the filing.
• The company stated it will not conduct an earnings conference call or webcast for these quarterly results because of the proposed transaction with Banco Santander, S.A.

Key Details

• Filing date: April 28, 2026; reporting period: quarter ended March 31, 2026.
• Exhibit 99.1: press release dated April 28, 2026 (attached to the 8-K).
• The filing notes that the information and Exhibit 99.1 are not being “deemed filed” under the Securities Exchange Act and are not incorporated by reference into Securities Act filings unless expressly stated.
• Form 8-K was signed by Kristen Antonopoulos, Chief Accounting Officer, on April 28, 2026.

Why It Matters

• Investors should be aware that Webster released its quarterly results but will not provide the usual earnings call or webcast that typically offers management commentary and Q&A—access to additional context may be limited while the proposed Banco Santander transaction is pending.
• The absence of an earnings call may affect how quickly analysts and investors can get management explanations of the quarter’s results; investors should review the attached press release (Exhibit 99.1) and follow subsequent filings for additional details.
