“C&F started 2026 with strong momentum, delivering earnings per share growth of 25 percent year over year,” said Tom Cherry, President and Chief Executive Officer of C&F Financial Corporation. “Higher net income at our community banking and mortgage banking segments more than offset lower earnings at our consumer finance segment, compared to March 31, 2025. Solid loan and deposit growth at our community banking segment, approximately a 58 percent jump in mortgage originations at our mortgage banking segment, and higher net interest margin all helped drive these results.

The U.S. economy stayed resilient in the first quarter, but risks are building, specifically with the conflict in the Middle East and potential associated impacts on interest rates, energy prices, and other economic effects. As conditions change, we are prepared to adapt quickly.”

Key highlights for the first quarter of 2026 are as follows.

Community banking segment loans grew $24.1 million, or 6.1 percent annualized, and $133.2 million, or 9.0 percent, compared to December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively;
Consumer finance segment loans decreased $3.6 million, or 3.1 percent annualized, and decreased $1.5 million, or less than one percent, compared to December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively;
Deposits increased $53.7 million, or 9.2 percent annualized, and $182.8 million, or 8.2 percent, compared to December 31, 2025 and March 31, 2025, respectively. A portion of the increases in deposits compared to March 31, 2025 was due to the wind-down of the repurchase agreement program with certain commercial deposit customers during the third quarter of 2025. The balance of these repurchase agreements was $25.9 million at March 31, 2025;
Consolidated annualized net interest margin was 4.27 percent for the first quarter of 2026 compared to 4.16 percent for the first quarter of 2025;
The consumer finance segment experienced net charge-offs at an annualized rate of 2.98 percent of average total loans for the first quarter of 2026 compared to 2.86 percent and 2.64 percent for the fourth quarter and first quarter of 2025, respectively;
Mortgage banking segment loan originations increased $65.9 million, or 57.9 percent, to $179.6 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025.

Community Banking Segment. The community banking segment reported net income of $7.1 million for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $5.4 million for the first quarter of 2025 due primarily to:

higher interest income resulting from higher average balances of loans and cash reserves and higher average interest rates on securities;

partially offset by:

higher salaries and employee benefits due primarily to the addition of a seasoned lending team with the expansion into Southwest Virginia in the third quarter of 2025 and annual compensation adjustments.

Average loans increased $135.2 million, or 9.2 percent, for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 due primarily to growth in the commercial real estate, land acquisition and development, and equity lines segments of the loan portfolio. Average deposits increased $180.5 million, or 8.2 percent, for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 due primarily to higher balances across all categories of deposits. A portion of the increase in average deposits was due to the wind-down of the repurchase agreement program with certain commercial deposit customers during the third quarter of 2025. The average balance of these repurchase agreements was $28.2 million at March 31, 2025.

Average interest-earning asset yields were higher for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 due primarily to higher average interest rates on securities available for sale. Average costs of interest-bearing deposits were lower for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the first quarter of 2025 due primarily to a decrease in average interest rates paid on time deposits.

The community banking segment’s nonaccrual loans were $1.1 million at both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025. The community banking segment recorded provision for credit losses of $300,000 for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $100,000 for the first quarter of 2025. At March 31, 2026 the allowance for credit losses was $17.6 million compared to $17.4 million at December 31, 2025. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans decreased to 1.09 percent at March 31, 2026 from 1.10 percent at December 31, 2025. Management believes that the level of the allowance for credit losses is adequate to reflect the net amount expected to be collected.

Mortgage Banking Segment. The mortgage banking segment reported net income of $910,000 for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $431,000 for the first quarter of 2025 due primarily to:

higher gains on sales of loans and higher mortgage banking fee income due to higher volume of mortgage loan originations; and
higher mortgage lender services fee income;

partially offset by:

higher variable expenses tied to mortgage loan origination volume such as commissions and bonuses, reported in salaries and employee benefits.

Mortgage banking segment loan originations increased 57.9 percent compared to the first quarter of 2025 as the mortgage interest rate environment has become more favorable, which led to an increase in both purchases and refinancings. Mortgage loan originations for the mortgage banking segment were $179.6 million for the first quarter of 2026, comprised of $142.5 million home purchases and $37.1 million refinancings, compared to $113.8 million for the first quarter of 2025, comprised of $101.7 million home purchases and $12.1 million refinancings. Mortgage loan segment originations include originations of loans sold to the community banking segment, at prices similar to those paid by third-party investors. These transactions are eliminated to reach consolidated totals.

Through the Lender Solutions division of the mortgage banking segment, mortgage lender services fee income is derived from providing mortgage origination functions to third-party mortgage lenders for a fee. Mortgage lender services fee income increased to $820,000 for the first quarter of 2026 compared to $541,000 for the first quarter of 2025 due primarily to increased mortgage loan volume in the industry.

During the first quarter of 2026, the mortgage banking segment recorded net reversals of provision for indemnification losses of $35,000 compared to net reversals of provision for indemnification losses of $25,000 in the same period of 2025. The allowance for indemnifications was $1.1 million and $1.2 million at March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. The release of indemnification reserves in 2026 and 2025 was due primarily to lower volume of mortgage loan originations in recent years compared to years prior when the indemnification reserve was increased due to higher volume coming out of the pandemic, improvement in the mortgage banking segment’s assessment of borrower payment performance and other factors affecting expected losses on mortgage loans sold in the secondary market, such as time since origination. Management believes that the indemnification reserve is sufficient to absorb losses related to loans that have been sold in the secondary market.

Consumer Finance Segment. The consumer finance segment reported a net loss of $81,000 for the first quarter of 2026 compared to net income of $226,000 for the first quarter of 2025 due primarily to:

higher provision for credit losses due primarily to higher net charge-offs; and
higher professional fees and higher loan processing and collection expenses;

partially offset by:

higher interest income resulting from higher loan yields due primarily to a shift in the mix of the loan portfolio with the termination of the lower-yielding marine and recreational vehicle loan program; and
lower interest expense allocation on borrowings from the community banking segment as a result of lower average interest rates;

Average loans decreased $1.0 million, or less than one percent, for the first quarter of 2026 compared to the same period in 2025 due primarily to a decrease in marine and recreational vehicle loans as the third party administrator of that program significantly decreased sales of those loans to outside parties during 2025, which led to the consumer finance segment ending future purchases under the program during the third quarter of 2025. The marine and recreational vehicle portfolio is expected to run off over the next several years as scheduled borrower payments are made on the existing loans. The consumer finance segment experienced net charge-offs at an annualized rate of 2.98 percent of average total loans for the first quarter of 2026 compared to 2.64 percent for the first quarter of 2025 due primarily to an increase in delinquent loans and repossessions. At March 31, 2026, total delinquent loans as a percentage of total loans was 3.35 percent compared to 4.38 percent at December 31, 2025 and 3.05 percent at March 31, 2025.

The consumer finance segment, at times, offers payment deferrals as a portfolio management technique to achieve higher ultimate cash collections on select loan accounts. A significant reliance on deferrals as a means of managing collections may result in a lengthening of the loss confirmation period, which would increase expectations of credit losses inherent in the portfolio. Average amounts of payment deferrals of automobile loans on a monthly basis, which are not included in delinquent loans, were 1.34 percent of average automobile loans outstanding during the first quarter of 2026 compared to 2.50 percent during the fourth quarter of 2025 and 1.75 percent during the first quarter of 2025.

The allowance for credit losses was $22.1 million, or 4.80 percent of total loans, at March 31, 2026 compared to $22.3 million, or 4.79 percent of total loans, at December 31, 2025. Management believes that the level of the allowance for credit losses is adequate to reflect the net amount expected to be collected. If loan performance deteriorates resulting in further elevated delinquencies or net charge-offs, the provision for credit losses may increase in future periods.

Liquidity. The objective of the Corporation’s liquidity management is to ensure the continuous availability of funds to satisfy the credit needs of our customers and the demands of our depositors, creditors and investors. Uninsured deposits represent an estimate of amounts above the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) insurance coverage limit of $250,000. As of March 31, 2026, the Corporation’s uninsured deposits were approximately $745.7 million, or 31.1 percent of total deposits. Excluding intercompany cash holdings and municipal deposits, which are secured with pledged securities, amounts uninsured were approximately $578.4 million, or 24.1 percent of total deposits as of March 31, 2026. The Corporation’s liquid assets, which include cash and due from banks, interest-bearing deposits at other banks and nonpledged securities available for sale, were $428.9 million and borrowing availability was $681.4 million as of March 31, 2026, which in total exceed uninsured deposits, excluding intercompany cash holdings and secured municipal deposits, by $531.9 million as of March 31, 2026.

In addition to deposits, the Corporation utilizes short-term and long-term borrowings as sources of funds. Short-term borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank and the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB) may be used to fund the Corporation’s day-to-day operations. Total borrowings decreased to $103.3 million at March 31, 2026 from $113.3 million at December 31, 2025 due primarily to the repayment of FHLB advances during the first quarter of 2026.

Additional sources of liquidity available to the Corporation include cash flows from operations, loan payments and payoffs, deposit growth, maturities, calls and sales of securities, the issuance of brokered certificates of deposit and the capacity to borrow additional funds.

Capital and Dividends. During the first quarter of 2026, the Corporation increased its quarterly cash dividend by 4 percent, to 48 cents per share, compared to the previous quarterly dividend. This dividend, which was paid to shareholders on April 1, 2026, represents a payout ratio of 23.1 percent of earnings per share for the first quarter of 2026. The Board of Directors of the Corporation continually reviews the amount of cash dividends per share and the resulting dividend payout ratio in light of changes in economic conditions, current and future capital levels and requirements, and expected future earnings.

Total consolidated equity increased $3.8 million at March 31, 2026, compared to December 31, 2025, due primarily to net income, partially offset by dividends paid on the Corporation’s common stock and higher unrealized losses in the market value of securities available for sale, which are recognized as a component of other comprehensive income. The Corporation’s securities available for sale are fixed income debt securities and their unrealized loss position is a result of increased market interest rates since they were purchased. The Corporation expects to recover its investments in debt securities through scheduled payments of principal and interest. Unrealized losses are not expected to affect the earnings or regulatory capital of the Corporation or C&F Bank. The accumulated other comprehensive loss related to the Corporation’s securities available for sale, net of deferred income taxes, increased to $11.7 million at March 31, 2026 compared to $10.2 million at December 31, 2025 due primarily to fluctuations in debt security market interest rates.

As of March 31, 2026, C&F Bank was categorized as well capitalized under the FDIC’s regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized under regulations applicable at March 31, 2026, C&F Bank was required to maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, CET1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios. In addition to the regulatory risk-based capital requirements, C&F Bank must maintain a capital conservation buffer of additional capital of 2.5 percent of risk-weighted assets as required by the Basel III capital rules. The Corporation and C&F Bank exceeded these ratios at March 31, 2026. For additional information, see “Capital Ratios” below. The above mentioned ratios are not impacted by unrealized losses on securities available for sale. In the event that all of these unrealized losses become realized into earnings, the Corporation and C&F Bank would both continue to exceed minimum capital requirements, including the capital conservation buffer, and be considered well capitalized.

The Corporation has a share repurchase program, effective January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2026, that was authorized by the Board of Directors to repurchase up to $5.0 million of the Corporation’s common stock (the 2026 Repurchase Program). During the first quarter of 2026, the Corporation repurchased 4,279 shares, or $309,000 of its common stock under the 2026 Repurchase Program.

About C&F Financial Corporation. The Corporation’s common stock is listed for trading on The Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbol CFFI.

Additional information regarding the Corporation’s products and services, as well as access to its filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), are available on the Corporation’s website at http://www.cffc.com.

Use of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures. The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation conform to GAAP in the United States and prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, certain non-GAAP measures are used by management to supplement the evaluation of the Corporation’s performance. These include net tangible income attributable to the Corporation, return on average tangible common equity (ROTCE), tangible book value per share, price to tangible book value ratio, and the following fully-taxable equivalent (FTE) measures: interest and fees on loans-FTE, interest and dividends on securities-FTE, total interest income-FTE and net interest income-FTE. Interest on tax-exempt loans and securities is presented on a taxable-equivalent basis (which converts the income on loans and investments for which no income taxes are paid to the equivalent yield as if income taxes were paid) using the federal corporate income tax rate of 21 percent that was applicable for all periods presented.

Management believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures provides meaningful information about operating performance by enhancing comparability with other financial periods, other financial institutions, and between different sources of interest income. The non-GAAP measures used by management enhance comparability by excluding the effects of balances of intangible assets, including goodwill, that vary significantly between institutions, and tax benefits that are not consistent across different opportunities for investment. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to, or more important than, GAAP-basis financial statements, and other bank holding companies may define or calculate these or similar measures differently. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Corporation to evaluate and measure the Corporation’s performance to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is presented below in the “Reconciliation of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” “Fully Taxable Equivalent Net Interest Income” and “Tangible Book Value Per Share” tables.
