Axos Financial, Inc.

Balance Sheet Analysis

Our total assets increased $3.4 billion, or 13.8%, to $28.2 billion at December 31, 2025, from $24.8 billion at June 30, 2025, primarily attributable to an increase in loans, mainly attributable to the Verdant acquisition, and higher available-for-sale securities, partially offset by lower cash and cash equivalents. Our total liabilities increased $3.2 billion, or 14.3%, to $25.3 billion at December 31, 2025 from $22.1 billion at June 30, 2025, primarily attributable to higher deposit balances, as well as secured financings assumed as part of the Verdant acquisition.

Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans

The following table sets forth the composition of the loan portfolio:

Management establishes an allowance for credit losses based upon its evaluation of the expected lifetime credit losses related to the amortized cost basis of loans on the balance sheet. The net charge-off rate for the three months ended December 31, 2025 was 0.04%, compared to 0.10% for the three months ended December 31, 2024. The decrease in the net charge-off rate was primarily driven by lower net charge-offs in the Commercial Real Estate and Single Family - Mortgage & Warehouse portfolio. For additional information regarding the Company’s allowance for credit losses, see Note 5—“Loans & Allowance for Credit Losses”in the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements. For a discussion of the provision for credit losses for the three and six months ended December 31, 2025, see Item 2—“Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Results of Operations.”We believe that the lower average LTV in the loan portfolio will continue to result in future lower average mortgage loan charge-offs when compared to many other comparable banks.

Asset Quality

Non-performing Assets. Loans reaching 90 days past due are generally placed on nonaccrual status. Loans not yet reaching 90 days past due may be placed on nonaccrual status based on management’s assessment of the aging of contractual principal amounts due, among other factors. For an aging analysis of the Company’s loans held for investment as of December 31, 2025 and June 30, 2025, see Note 5—“Loans & Allowance for Credit Losses” in the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements. Non-performing assets include nonaccrual loans plus other real estate owned and repossessed vehicles.

Non-performing assets consisted of the following:

Our non-performing assets decreased to $156.7 million at December 31, 2025 from $175.4 million compared to June 30, 2025, as decreases in the multifamily and commercial mortgage and commercial real estate portfolios, were partially offset by an increase in the single family - mortgage & warehouse portfolio. Non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets decreased to 0.56% at December 31, 2025 from 0.71% at June 30, 2025.

During the six months ended December 31, 2025, we purchased $758.8 million of securities and we received principal repayments of $15.8 million. The remainder of the change for the available-for-sale securities portfolio is attributable to changes in the fair value of the securities.
