“We delivered a strong first quarter, with earnings per share up over 40% year-over-year, demonstrating continued improvement in our core earnings power and establishing a clear trajectory for accelerated growth." - MVB President & CEO Larry F. Mazza

Payment card and service charge income up 13.5%.
Noninterest expenses down 10.7%, reflecting technology-driven efficiency initiatives.
Executed balance sheet actions to bring funding costs down and earnings power up.
Sustained momentum in onboarding and payments pipeline activity.
Subsequent to quarter-end, recognized a pre-tax gain of approximately $10.0 million in the second quarter related to an existing Fintech investment, which is expected to increase tangible book value by approximately $0.59 per share.
From Larry F. Mazza, Chief Executive Officer and President, MVB Financial:
“We delivered a strong first quarter, with earnings per share up over 40% year-over-year, demonstrating continued improvement in our core earnings power and establishing a clear trajectory for accelerated growth. Our commitment remains to maximize shareholder value through disciplined execution, continuous improvement of profitability metrics and strategic investments in high-return opportunities.
“This momentum accelerated during the quarter, supported by solid loan growth, continued net interest margin expansion, improved efficiency and progress across our payments-related businesses.
“Additionally, we continued to make strategic investments in artificial intelligence and automation to streamline operations, enhance the customer experience and improve overall execution efficiency. To align our organization with this strategy, we brought our technology and operations functions under unified leadership with Mike Giorgio’s appointment as Chief Operating Officer and strengthened our Board with the addition of Adam Famularo, who adds significant Fintech and artificial intelligence expertise. We are also pleased to welcome Dr. Kelly Nelson as Chairman of the Board and thank Marty Becker for his leadership and meaningful contributions to MVB’s growth and development.
“Finally, subsequent to quarter-end, we recognized a gain in the second quarter related to an existing Fintech investment, further demonstrating the strength of our Fintech platform. Combined with the successful monetization of Victor last year, we believe this underscores our ability to both build and invest in high-value technology businesses, creating incremental value for shareholders.”

Forward-Looking Statements
MVB Financial has made forward-looking statements, within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in this press release that are intended to be covered by the protections provided under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations about the future and are subject to risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, information concerning possible or assumed future results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “could,” “should,” “would,” “will,” “plans,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “continues” or the negative of those terms or similar expressions. Note that many factors could affect the future financial results of the Company and its subsidiaries, both individually and collectively, and could cause those results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements. Therefore, undue reliance should not be placed upon any forward-looking statements. Those factors include but are not limited to: market, economic, operational, liquidity and credit risk; changes in market interest rates; inability to successfully execute business plans, including strategies related to investments in Fintech companies; competition; unforeseen events, such as pandemics or natural disasters, and any governmental or societal responses thereto; changes in economic, business and political conditions, including, without limitation, the imposition of international trade policies and any retaliatory responses thereto; changes in demand for loan products and deposit flow; changes in deposit classifications; operational risks and risk management failures; and government regulation and supervision. Additional factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements can be found in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, as well as its other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. Except as required by law, the Company disclaims any obligation to update, revise or correct any forward-looking statements.
Accounting standards require the consideration of subsequent events occurring after the balance sheet date for matters that require adjustment to, or disclosure in, the consolidated financial statements. The review period for subsequent events extends up to and including the filing date of a public company’s financial statements when filed with the SEC. Accordingly, the consolidated financial information in this announcement is subject to change.
Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures
This document contains supplemental financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Management uses these non-GAAP measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance. These measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures, nor should they be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP. Management believes the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of specified items provide useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the Company’s financial condition and results. Non-GAAP measures are not formally defined under GAAP, and other entities may use calculation methods that differ from those used by the Company. As a complement to GAAP financial measures, management believes these non-GAAP financial measures assist investors in comparing the financial condition and results of operations of financial institutions due to the industry prevalence of such non-GAAP measures. See the tables below for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

1In order to make pre-tax income and resultant yields on tax-exempt loans and investment securities comparable to those on taxable loans and investment securities, a tax-equivalent adjustment has been computed using a Federal tax rate of 21% for the periods presented, which is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure. See the reconciliation of this non-U.S. GAAP financial measure to its most directly comparable GAAP financial measure included in the tables on page 11.
2 Non-accrual loans are included in total loan balances, lowering the effective yield for the portfolio in the aggregate.
