Key Details

• Quarterly cash dividend increased to $0.13 per share, payable June 15, 2026.

Why It Matters
Dividend increases and buyback authorizations are direct ways a bank returns capital to shareholders. The higher quarterly dividend raises near-term cash income for dividend investors, while the $250M repurchase program gives the company flexibility to buy shares, which can reduce outstanding shares and potentially support earnings per share. These actions are corporate capital-allocation decisions rather than an earnings release; investors should watch for future disclosures on funding, execution timing, and any impact on capital ratios.
