CARMEL, Indiana

– (PR Newswire) - Merchants Bancorp (the “Company” or “Merchants”) (Nasdaq: MBIN), parent company of Merchants

Bank, today reported second quarter of 2026 net income of $78.3 million, or diluted earnings per common share of $1.48. This compared

to $38.0 million, or diluted earnings per common share of $0.60 in the second quarter of 2025, and compared to $67.7 million, or diluted

earnings per common share of $1.25 in the first quarter of 2026.

“Our

second quarter results reflected continued strength across our businesses, highlighted by assets reaching a new high of $21.2 billion

and tangible book value per share of $39.93, marking our 30th consecutive quarter of record tangible book value. Credit trends also improved

during the quarter, with our fifth consecutive quarterly decline in criticized loans, which reached their lowest level since mid-2024,

along with decreases in nonperforming loans, delinquencies, charge-offs and provision for credit losses. These results demonstrate the

strength of our balance sheet, the benefit of improved credit metrics, and ongoing momentum in our business,” said Michael

F. Petrie, Chairman and CEO of Merchants.

Michael J.

Dunlap, President and Chief Operating Officer of Merchants, added, “With 10-year Treasury rates remaining elevated, our

diversified business model continues to create multiple sources of earnings support in the current rate environment. While the higher

rates may pressure near-term gain on sale of loans, loans in our robust pipeline are still expected to convert into permanent loans over

time. Meanwhile, higher rates continue to support valuations on our servicing rights and derivatives, providing an offset to pressure

on gain on sale revenue. Together with strong liquidity, capital, and improving credit trends, this positions us well to continue generating

earnings growth and long-term shareholder value.”

Net income for the second quarter of 2026 was $78.3 million, an increase

of $40.3 million, or 106%, compared to $38.0 million in the second quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily driven by a $43.8 million,

or 83%, decrease in the provision for credit losses, reflecting improved asset quality.

Net income for the second quarter of 2026 was $78.3 million, an increase

of $10.6 million, or 16%, from $67.7 million in the first quarter of 2026. The improvement was driven by a $14.0 million, or 12%, increase

in net interest income after provision for credit losses.

Total Assets

Total assets of $21.2 billion at June 30, 2026 increased $908.2

million, or 4%, compared to March 31, 2026, and increased $1.8 billion, or 9%, compared to December 31, 2025. The increases

for both periods were primarily due to higher balances in the multi-family and warehouse portfolios, as well as revolving lines of credit

collateralized by mortgage servicing rights that are included in the commercial and commercial real estate portfolio.

Asset Quality

The allowance for credit losses on loans of $75.8 million, as of June 30,

2026, decreased $1.0 million, or 1%, compared to March 31, 2026, and decreased $7.5 million, or 9%, compared to December 31,

2025. The decreases primarily reflected charge-offs on loans that had specific reserves.

During the second quarter of 2026, the Company recorded charge-offs

totaling $16.5 million and had $4.8 million in recoveries. Nearly 95% of the charge-offs in the second quarter of 2026 were associated

with two multi-family loan relationships. This compared to $46.1 million in charge-offs and no recoveries during the second quarter of

2025 and $23.0 million in charge-offs and $616,000 in recoveries in the first quarter of 2026.

Overall, criticized loans receivable of $444.7 million declined $60.8

million, or 12%, compared to March 31, 2026, and declined $63.5 million, or 12%, compared to December 31, 2025. These declines

are consistent with the Company’s expectation that migration to criticized status would stabilize and eventually subside, supported

by ongoing portfolio management efforts. As of June 30, 2026, 6% of the criticized loans were covered by credit default swaps.

As of June 30, 2026, all substandard loans have been evaluated

for impairment, and these loans have specific reserves of $3.9 million. The Company believes the loan portfolio continues to be well

collateralized.

Nonperforming loans decreased $41.8 million, or 17%, compared to March 31,

2026, primarily due to loans being paid in full. As of June 30, 2026, nonperforming loans were $205.6 million, or 1.67% of loans

receivable, compared to $247.5 million, or 2.16%, as of March 31, 2026, and $197.8 million, or 1.79%, as of December 31, 2025.

Total delinquent loans of $208.0 million decreased $34.6 million,

or 14%, compared to March 31, 2026. As of June 30, 2026, 10% of the delinquent loans were covered by credit default swaps.

The Company has taken additional steps to reduce credit risk through

loan sale and securitization activities since 2019. Since 2023, the Company has executed credit protection arrangements through credit

default swaps and a credit-linked note to reduce potential loss exposure, with coverage ranging from 13% to 15% of the unpaid principal

balance for each arrangement. Despite having credit protection on these loans, the Company is required to carry an allowance for credit

losses on loans held for investment. As of June 30, 2026, the remaining balance of loans protected by credit default swaps was $2.2

billion.

Total Deposits

Total deposits of $14.3 billion at June 30, 2026, increased $1.3

billion, or 10%, compared to March 31, 2026, and $1.2 billion, or 9%, compared to December 31, 2025. The increase in both periods

primarily reflected the growth in core deposits.

Core deposits of $13.0 billion at June 30, 2026, reflected increases

of $891.3 million, or 7%, from March 31, 2026, and $1.7 billion, or 15%, from December 31, 2025. Core deposits represented

91% of total deposits at June 30, 2026, 93% of total deposits at March 31, 2026, and 87% of total deposits at December 31,

2025.

Brokered

deposits of $1.3 billion at June 30, 2026, increased $411.3 million, or 46%, from March 31, 2026, and decreased $459.5 million,

or 26%, from December 31, 2025. As of June 30, 2026, brokered certificates of deposit had a weighted average remaining

duration of 51 days.

Liquidity

The Company maintained strong liquidity, supported by substantial

borrowing capacity, including unused lines of credit totaling $5.5 billion as of June 30, 2026, compared to $3.9 billion at March 31,

2026, and $5.3 billion at December 31, 2025.

The Company’s most liquid assets include cash and cash equivalents,

short-term investments, including interest-earning demand deposits, mortgage loans in process of securitization, loans held for sale,

and warehouse lines of credit included in loans receivable. Combined with unused borrowing capacity of $5.5 billion, these totaled $13.0

billion, or 61%, of its $21.2 billion total assets as of June 30, 2026.

This liquidity position provides the Company with flexibility to manage

funding costs, interest expense, and asset levels. In addition, the Company’s business model is designed to continuously sell or

securitize a significant portion of its loans, which provides flexibility in managing its liquidity.

Comparison of Operating Results for the

Three Months Ended

June 30, 2026 and 2025

Net Interest

Income of $136.5 million increased $7.8 million, or 6%, compared to $128.7 million. The increase reflected lower interest

expense on certificates of deposit, partially offset by higher interest expense on interest-bearing checking accounts and lower interest

income on securities held to maturity.

· Net

interest margin of 2.81% decreased two basis points compared to 2.83%.

· Interest

rate spread of 2.43% increased ten basis points compared to 2.33%.

Interest

Income of $294.1 million decreased $10.3 million, or 3%, compared to $304.4 million. The decrease was primarily attributable

to lower average balances and yields on securities held to maturity, as well as lower average yields on higher average balances on loans

and loans held for sale.

· Average

balances of $1.4 billion for securities held to maturity decreased $174.1 million, or 11%,

compared to $1.6 billion.

· Average

yields on securities held to maturity of 5.19% decreased 72 basis points compared to 5.91%.

· Average

yields on loans and loans held for sale of 6.26% decreased 66 basis points compared to 6.92%.

· Average

balances of $16.2 billion for loans and loans held for sale increased $1.4 billion, or 9%,

compared to $14.8 billion.

Interest

Expense of $157.5 million decreased 10% compared to $175.7 million. The decrease reflected lower average balances and rates

on certificates of deposit, partially offset by higher average balances on interest-bearing checking accounts.

· Average

balances of $1.4 billion for certificates of deposit decreased $1.7 billion, or 55%, compared

to $3.1 billion.

· Average

interest rates of 3.85% for certificates of deposit decreased 74 basis points compared to

4.59%.

· Average

balances on interest-bearing checking accounts of $7.9 billion increased $1.7 billion, or

28%, compared to $6.2 billion.

· Average

interest rates of 3.43% for interest-bearing checking accounts decreased 53 basis points

compared to 3.96%.

Page | 5

Provision

for Credit Losses was $9.2 million, a decrease of 83% compared to $53.0 million, reflecting improved asset quality, including

lower charge-offs and lower specific reserves.

Noninterest

Income of $45.7 million decreased $4.8 million, or 10%, compared to $50.5 million. The decline was primarily due to a decrease

of $10.2 million, or 44%, in gain on sale of loans, partially offset by $5.9 million, or 95%, increase in loan servicing fees.

· Loan

servicing fees included a $6.0 million positive fair market value adjustment to servicing

rights, with a $1.4 million positive adjustment in the Banking segment and a $4.6 million

positive adjustment in the Multi-family Mortgage Banking segment. This compared to a $258,000

positive fair market value adjustment to servicing rights in the prior period with a $487,000

negative adjustment in the Banking segment and a $745,000 positive adjustment in the Multi-family

Mortgage Banking segment. The value of servicing rights generally increases in rising 10-year

interest rate environments and declines in falling interest rate environments due to expected

prepayments and earning rates that are influenced by projected future interest rates on escrow

deposits.

· Other

noninterest income also included a $1.9 million positive fair market value adjustment to

floor derivatives, reflected in the Warehouse segment, compared to a $4.3 million positive

fair market value adjustment in the prior period.

Noninterest

Expense of $73.2 million decreased $4.1 million, or 5%, compared to $77.3 million. The lower expenses were primarily due to

a $4.2 million decrease in salaries and employee benefits from lower commissions and bonuses.

Comparison of Operating Results for the

Three Months Ended

June 30, 2026 and March 31, 2026

Net Interest

Income of $136.5 million increased $7.9 million, or 6%, compared to $128.6 million. The increase reflected higher interest

income on loans and loans held for sale, partially offset by higher interest expense on borrowings and deposits.

· Net

interest margin of 2.81% decreased 11 basis points compared to 2.92%.

· Interest

rate spread of 2.43% decreased seven basis points compared to 2.50%.

The 11 basis point decline in net interest margin was primarily driven

by changes in loan mix, as growth was weighted more toward loans held for sale and warehouse lending than the higher-yielding multi-family

and healthcare portfolios. While this mix shift lowered the reported margin, the growth remained profitable and contributed to higher

net interest income and overall earnings.

Page | 6

Interest

Income of $294.1 million increased $23.6 million, or 9%, compared to $270.5 million, primarily reflecting higher average balances

at lower average yields on loans and loans held for sale.

· Average

balances of $16.2 billion for loans and loans held for sale increased 10% compared to $14.7

billion.

· Average

yields on loans and loans held for sale of 6.26% decreased eight basis points compared to

6.34%, primarily reflecting the same loan mix shift discussed above.

Interest

Expense of $157.5 million increased 11% compared to $141.9 million. The increase was primarily driven by higher average balances

at lower interest rates on borrowings and higher average balances at higher average interest rates on interest-bearing checking accounts.

· Average

balances of $4.0 billion on borrowings increased $880.5 million, or 28%, compared to $3.1

billion.

· Average

interest rates of 4.06% on borrowings decreased by eight basis points compared to 4.14%.

· Average

balances of $7.9 billion for interest-bearing checking accounts increased $692.0 million,

or 10%, compared to $7.2 billion.

· Average

interest rates on interest-bearing checking accounts of 3.43% increased by a basis point

compared to 3.42%.

Provision

for Credit Losses was $9.2 million, a decrease of 40% compared to $15.3 million, reflecting improved asset quality, including

lower charge-offs and lower specific reserves.

Noninterest

Income of $45.7 million decreased 2% compared to $46.6 million. Results reflected a decrease of $3.1 million, or 21%, in loan

servicing fees, and a $1.5 million, or 11%, decrease in other noninterest income. Partially offsetting these declines was a $3.8 million,

or 122%, increase in syndication and asset management fees.

Page | 7

· Loan

servicing fees included a $6.0 million positive fair market value adjustment to servicing

rights, with a $1.4 million positive adjustment in the Banking segment and a $4.6 million

positive adjustment in the Multi-family Mortgage Banking segment. This compared to an $8.9

million positive fair market value adjustment to servicing rights in the prior period, with

a $1.6 million positive adjustment in the Banking segment and a $7.4 million positive adjustment

in the Multi-family Mortgage Banking segment. The value of servicing rights generally increases

in rising 10-year interest rate environments and declines in falling interest rate environments

due to expected prepayments and earning rates that are influenced by projected future interest

rates on escrow deposits.

· Other

noninterest income included a $1.9 million positive fair market value adjustment to floor

derivatives, reflected in the Warehouse segment, compared to a $2.7 million positive fair

market value adjustment to derivatives in the prior period.

Noninterest

Expense of $73.2 million decreased $2.4 million, 3%, compared to $75.6 million, primarily due to a $2.5 million decrease in

deposit insurance expenses from improved asset quality.
