The increase in the provision for credit losses for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, as compared to the same periods in 2024, was primarily due to charge-offs of $11.3 million on two commercial loan relationships in the third quarter of 2025.

At December 31, 2024, shared national credit balances outstanding included in the C&I loan portfolio totaled $71.0 million, all of which were in the pass-rated category and current with respect to payment terms.
Current report
As previously disclosed on a Form 8-K filed on October 8, 2025, the Corporation’s third quarter 2025 results were adversely impacted by $11.3 million of charge-offs on two nonaccrual commercial loan relationships.
Current report
The first loan relationship was a C&I participation in a shared national credit to a telecom infrastructure construction contractor. The contractor filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the second quarter of 2025 due to cash flow problems, and at that time, the Corporation placed the loan relationship on nonaccrual status. As of June 30, 2025, this individually analyzed collateral dependent relationship had a carrying value of $9.3 million, of which $1.4 million was past due. Utilizing the information available at that time, which included collateral valuations (estimated bids from the sale of the company and estimated recovery of receivables), management established a specific reserve of $2.3 million at June 30, 2025, which covered approximately 25% of the carrying value. Based on ensuing developments in the bankruptcy proceedings during the third quarter, which included bidders dropping out of the sale process, the company sold via auction on August 28, 2025 significantly below expectations. Additionally, the bank group, which included the Bank, approved the sale of the receivables on September 15, 2025. As a result of these updated recovery estimates, the Corporation revised its estimate of expected credit losses on this relationship and recognized a charge-off of $8.3 million in the third quarter. The remaining carrying value of $1.0 million as of September 30, 2025 was collected in October 2025.
Current report
The second loan was a CRE loan secured by an office property in our primary lending area of southern New England. This loan was previously placed on nonaccrual status in 2023 and was also modified and reported as a TLM. As of June 30, 2025, this individually analyzed collateral dependent loan had a carrying value of $4.3 million, net of previous charge-offs taken. Based on an appraisal received in the first quarter of 2025, management concluded that no additional specific reserve was warranted for this loan at June 30, 2025. In September 2025, the Corporation changed its exit strategy and decided to sell this loan. Late in September, the sale closed, proceeds of $1.2 million were received, and a charge-off of $3.0 million was recognized.
Current report
Nonaccrual loans at September 30, 2025 totaled $14.0 million, down by $9.3 million from the end of 2024, largely reflecting a decline in nonaccrual CRE loans of $10.1 million. The decline in nonaccrual CRE loans was concentrated in CRE office segment and reflected year-to-date charge-offs, a loan payoff received in the second quarter of 2025 and loan sale proceeds received in the third quarter of 2025. Additionally, see discussion above regarding the collection of the $1.0 million nonaccrual C&I balance in October of 2025.
Current report
Net charge-offs totaled $11.4 million and $14.4 million, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. See additional discussion regarding third quarter charge-offs of $11.3 million on two nonaccrual commercial loan relationships above under the caption “Nonaccrual Loans.” Net charge-offs were $48 thousand and $127 thousand, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Net interest income is affected by the level of and changes in interest rates, and changes in the amount and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income also includes the periodic recognition of prepayment penalty fee income associated with commercial loan payoffs. Prepayment penalty fee income amounted to $52 thousand and $60 thousand, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $46 thousand and $66 thousand, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, and had essentially no benefit to NIM in any of the respective periods.

Previous report
The end of period AUA balance amounted to $7.2 billion at June 30, 2025, up by $103.9 million, or 1%, from December 31, 2024, reflecting net investment appreciation that was partially offset by net client asset outflows. The following table presents the changes in wealth management AUA balances:

Previous report
Nonaccrual loans at June 30, 2025 totaled $26.1 million, up by $2.8 million from the end of 2024. This reflected an increase in nonaccrual C&I loans of $9.2 million, primarily attributable to one relationship that was placed on nonaccrual status, as discussed further below. This increase was partially offset by a decline in nonaccrual CRE loans of $5.8 million that reflected year-to-date partial charge-offs of $2.7 million on two office segment loans and the resolution of one of these loans that paid off in the second quarter of 2025. Both of these office segment loans were previously modified as TLMs.
Previous report
As of June 30, 2025, the balance of nonaccrual C&I loans primarily consisted of one individually analyzed collateral dependent relationship with a carrying value of $9.3 million, of which $1.4 million was past due. This C&I borrower is a broadband infrastructure contractor who recently filed Chapter 11 bankruptcy due to cash flow problems. Washington Trust is a 5% participant in a multi-bank deal and has a total exposure of approximately $11 million. As of June 30, 2025, the balance of nonaccrual commercial real estate loans consisted of one individually analyzed collateral dependent loan secured by an office property in our primary lending area of southern New England. Based on recent collateral and other valuations of sources of repayment, management believes it has established appropriate specific reserves to cover the estimated potential loss exposure associated with these nonaccrual commercial loans at June 30, 2025.

Previous wording
The analysis of net interest income, NIM, and the yield on loans is also impacted by changes in the level of net amortization of premiums and discounts on securities and loans, which is included in interest income. Changes in market interest rates affect the level of loan prepayments and the receipt of payments on mortgage-backed securities. Prepayment speeds generally increase as longer-term market interest rates decline and decrease as longer-term market interest rates rise. Changes in prepayment speeds could increase or decrease the level of net amortization of premiums and discounts, thereby affecting interest income. As noted in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, net amortization of premiums and discounts on securities and loans (a net reduction to net interest income) amounted to $364 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $573 thousand for the same period in 2024.
Current wording
Net interest income is affected by the level of and changes in interest rates, and changes in the amount and composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities.

Prepayment penalty fee income and its impact on NIM was insignificant for all periods presented. The analysis of net interest income, NIM, and the yield on loans is also impacted by changes in the level of net amortization of premiums and discounts on securities and loans, which is included in interest income. As noted in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, net amortization of premiums and discounts on securities and loans (a net reduction to net interest income) amounted to $783 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $878 thousand for the same period in 2024.
