News Release



HOPE BANCORP REPORTS FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE SECOND QUARTER AND SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2026

Second quarter 2026 net income of $33.0 million, up 12% quarter-over-quarter

LOS ANGELES July 27, 2026 – Hope Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: HOPE), the holding company of Bank of Hope (the “Bank”), today reported unaudited financial results for its second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2026.
For the second quarter of 2026, the Company reported net income of $33.0 million, or $0.26 per diluted common share, up 12% from net income of $29.5 million, or $0.23 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2026, and up from a net loss of $24.8 million, or $(0.19) per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2025. Net income excluding notable items(1) for the second quarter of 2026 was $34.5 million, or $0.27 per diluted common share, up 16% from $29.7 million, or $0.23 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2026, and up 40% from net income of $24.6 million, or $0.19 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2025.

“Overall, we delivered strong quarterly results and are pleased with the continued progress made to improve the profitability and core operating performance of the Bank. Second quarter 2026 earnings growth reflected a combination of revenue growth and positive operating leverage, driven by loan growth, net interest margin expansion, lower funding costs, increased fee income and expense discipline,” said Kevin S. Kim, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hope Bancorp, Inc.

“As we enter the second half of 2026, we are well-positioned to continue our momentum in executing on our key priorities. We are focused on building a more profitable and resilient franchise through disciplined balance sheet management, prudent expense control and the strengthening of client relationships to deliver long-term value for our stockholders,” continued Kim.

“Our pending acquisition of the Commercial Banking Unit of SMBC MANUBANK(2) is closely aligned with our priorities and represents an important opportunity to expand our middle market and multinational banking capabilities, develop specialty deposit verticals, and broaden our footprint in Southern California. The transaction is anticipated to improve our 2027 earnings and returns on tangible common equity, enhance our long-term earnings capacity, and support effective capital management,” concluded Kim.


(1) Net income excluding notable items and earnings per share excluding notable items are non-GAAP financial measures. Quantitative reconciliations of the most directly comparable GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures are provided in the accompanying financial information on Table Pages 10 to 12. Notable items in the second quarter of 2026 included merger-related costs; notable items for the prior periods are detailed on Table Pages 10 to 12.

Operating Results for the Second Quarter of 2026
Net interest income and net interest margin. Net interest income totaled $129.0 million for the second quarter of 2026, up $4.9 million, or 4%, compared with $124.1 million for the first quarter of 2026, and up $11.5 million, or 10%, from the second quarter of 2025. Net interest margin for the second quarter of 2026 was 2.96%, up six basis points from 2.90% for the first quarter of 2026, and up 27 basis points from 2.69% for the year-ago quarter. The sequential quarter net interest income growth and net interest margin expansion were primarily driven by average earning asset growth, earning asset yield expansion and a lower cost of funds. The second quarter 2026 yield on average loans was 5.73%, up four basis points sequentially, and the cost of interest bearing deposits was 3.31%, down six basis points sequentially. Year-over-year, the cost of interest bearing deposits was down 46 basis points, reflecting Fed Funds target rate cuts over the period as well as the positive impact of the Territorial Bancorp acquisition, which closed on April 2, 2025, and contributed lower cost deposits to the Bank’s funding mix.

Noninterest income. For the second quarter of 2026, noninterest income totaled $18.9 million, up $1.9 million, or 11%, compared with $17.0 million for the first quarter of 2026, and up $3.0 million, or 19%, compared with noninterest income excluding notable items(3) of $15.9 million for the second quarter of 2025. Second quarter 2025 reported noninterest income was $(23.0) million and included a $38.9 million loss on an investment portfolio repositioning. The sequential quarter growth in second quarter 2026 noninterest income reflected increased net gains on sales of Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans, growth in customer-driven income and fees, and an increase in net gains on sales of available-for-sale securities. The Company sold $67.9 million of SBA loans in the second quarter of 2026 for a net gain of $4.4 million, compared with $53.0 million of SBA loans sold for a net gain of $3.3 million in the first quarter of 2026.

Noninterest expense. Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2026 was $98.5 million, up $4.0 million, or 4%, from $94.5 million for the first quarter of 2026, and down $11.0 million, or 10%, from $109.5 million for the second quarter of 2025. Noninterest expense excluding notable items(3) for the second quarter of 2026 was $96.4 million, up $2.1 million, or 2%, from $94.3 million for the first quarter of 2026, and up $4.2 million, or 5%, from $92.2 million for the second quarter of 2025. Growth in the second quarter 2026 noninterest expense was well controlled across all key areas of operating expenses.

In the second quarter of 2026, revenue growth outpaced expense growth, resulting in positive operating leverage and an improved efficiency ratio. The reported efficiency ratio for the second quarter of 2026 was 66.6%, improving from 67.0% in the prior quarter and 115.8% in the year-ago quarter. The efficiency ratio excluding notable items(3) for the second quarter of 2026 was 65.2%, improving from 66.9% in the prior quarter and 69.1% in the year-ago quarter.

Income tax provision and tax rate. For the second quarter of 2026, the Company recorded an income tax provision of $9.6 million, compared with an income tax provision of $8.4 million for the first quarter of 2026 and an income tax benefit of $(1.3) million for the second quarter of 2025. The year-to-date effective tax rate for the first half of 2026 was 22.3%.
