Net income per diluted common share was $1.49 for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared with $1.37 for the same period in 2024, an increase of 8.8%. The changes were primarily due to an increase in net interest income and a decrease in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") special assessment, partially offset by an increase in provision for income taxes. On a linked quarter basis, net income was $139.9 million⁽²⁾ for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared with $137.6 million⁽⁴⁾ for the three months ended September 30, 2025, an increase of $2.4 million or 1.7%. Net income per diluted common share was $1.49 for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared with $1.45 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, an increase of 2.8%.

The net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis was 3.30% for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared with 3.05% for the same period in 2024. The changes to both measures were primarily due to a decrease in the average balances and average rates on other borrowings and a decrease in the average rates on interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by a decrease in the average balances and average rates on loans and federal funds sold and other earning assets. Net interest income before provision for credit losses increased $1.5 million to $275.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared with $273.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis was 3.30% for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared with 3.24% for the three months ended September 30, 2025. The changes to both measures were primarily due to a decrease in the average balances and average rates on other borrowings, partially offset by a decrease in the average balances and average rates on loans and federal funds sold and other earning assets.

Noninterest income was $42.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared with $39.8 million for the same period in 2024, an increase of $2.9 million, primarily due to increases in other noninterest income and service charges on deposit accounts. Noninterest income was $42.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared with $41.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, an increase of $1.5 million.

Noninterest expense was $138.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared with $141.5 million for the same period in 2024, a decrease of $2.8 million, primarily due to a reversal of the 2024 FDIC special assessment, partially offset by a change in the net loss on sale or write-down of other real estate and an excise tax expense due to stock repurchases. Noninterest expense was $138.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and $138.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025.

Net income per diluted common share was $5.72 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared with $5.05 for the same period in 2024, an increase of 13.3%.

The net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis for the year ended December 31, 2025, was 3.22% compared with 2.93% for the same period in 2024. The changes to both measures were primarily due to a decrease in the average balances and average rates on other borrowings and a decrease in the average rates on interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by a decrease in the average balances and average rates on federal funds sold and other earning assets, a decrease in the average balances on investment securities, a decrease in the average rates on loans and a decrease in loan discount accretion of $5.1 million.

Noninterest income was $168.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared with $165.8 million for the same period in 2024, an increase of $2.5 million, primarily due to increases in other noninterest income and service charges on deposit accounts, partially offset by a decrease in net gain on sale or write-up of securities.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Prosperity's management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate its performance. Specifically, for internal planning and forecasting purposes, Prosperity reviews each of diluted earnings per share, return on average assets, return on average common equity, and return on average tangible common equity, in each case excluding merger related provision for credit losses, net of tax, merger related expenses, net of tax, FDIC special assessment, net of tax, and net gain on the sale or write-up of securities, net of tax; return on average tangible common equity; tangible book value per share; the tangible equity to tangible assets ratio; allowance for credit losses to total loans excluding Warehouse Purchase Program loans; the efficiency ratio, excluding net gains and losses on the sale, write-down or write-up of assets and securities; and the efficiency ratio, excluding net gains and losses on the sale, write-down or write-up of assets and securities, merger related expenses, and FDIC special assessment. Prosperity believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide information useful to investors in understanding Prosperity's financial results and their presentation, together with the accompanying reconciliations, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting Prosperity's business and allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to management, the entire financial services sector, bank stock analysts and bank regulators. Further, Prosperity believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of its core operating earnings and business outlook. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for, nor of greater importance than, GAAP basis financial measures and results; Prosperity 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. Please refer to the "Notes to Selected Financial Data" at the end of this Earnings Release for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the nearest respective GAAP financial measures.
