ANNOUNCES EARNINGS FOR THE QUARTER

ENDED JUNE 30, 2026

SAN JUAN,

Puerto Rico –

July 22,

2026

– First

BanCorp. (the “Corporation”

or “First BanCorp.”)

(NYSE: FBP), the

bank holding

company for FirstBank

Puerto

Rico (“FirstBank” or “the Bank”), today

reported a net income of

$96.1 million, or $0.62 per

diluted share, for the second

quarter of 2026, compared to $88.8

million,

or $0.57 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2026, and

$80.2 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, for the second

quarter of 2025.

Aurelio

Alemán,

President

and

Chief

Executive

Officer

of

First

BanCorp,

commented:

“We concluded

the first half of the year with another quarter

of strong

financial and operating

performance, delivering

growth across

our franchise while

continuing

to

generate

attractive returns

for shareholders.

Adjusted

pre-tax,

pre-

provision income

reached a record

of $137.5 million, earnings

per share increased

24% compared to the

prior year,

and return on average assets

was 2.02%, marking

our 18th

consecutive

quarter above

1.5%. By

many measures,

this represents

the

strongest and most consistent

period of performance in our company’s

history. This

achievement reflects

the trust our

customers place

in us, as

well as the

dedication,

discipline, and execution demonstrated by our teams across

the organization.

Loan

growth

accelerated

during

the

quarter,

driven

primarily

by

commercial

activity

in

Puerto

Rico,

with

total

loan

originations

reaching

$1.7

billion,

an

increase

of

21%

year

over

year.

These

encouraging

trends,

combined

with

a

healthy pipeline of opportunities, reinforce

our path to achieve our full-year growth

objectives.

Credit

quality

remained

sound,

with

lower

net

charge-offs

and

non-

performing

assets

remaining

near

historic

lows,

while

we

continue

to

closely

monitor seasonal delinquency trends and broader

consumer market conditions.

We

remain

firmly committed

to prudent

capital management.

During the

quarter,

we

returned

84%

of

earnings

to

shareholders

through

dividends

and

share

repurchases

while

maintaining

a

top-quartile

CET1

ratio

of

16.96%.

Our

strong

capital

position

enables

us

to

continue

investing

strategically

in

our

franchise

to

enhance

competitiveness,

strengthen

the

customers’

experience,

and

support

sustainable long-term growth.

While we remain

mindful of an evolving

economic environment,

the strength of

our

franchise,

combined

with

disciplined

execution,

positions

us

well

to

continue

creating

long-term

value

for

our

shareholders,

customers,

employees,

and

communities.”

Results for the Second Quarter of 2026 compared to the First Quarter

of 2026

Profitability

Net income –

$96.1 million, or $0.62 per diluted share compared to $88.8

million, or $0.57 per diluted share.

Income before income taxes

$120.2 million compared to $114.3 million.

Adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income (Non-GAAP)

(1)

$137.5 million compared to $131.4 million.

Net interest income –

$229.1 million compared to $221.0 million. The increase was driven by approximately $1.6 million in net interest income

attributable to an additional day in the

second quarter of 2026, $3.4 million in interest income

resulting from the acceleration of the unamortized

purchase

discount

and

net

deferred

fees

associated

with

refinancings

in

the

Puerto

Rico

region

during

the

second

quarter

of

2026,

which

contributed approximately 7

basis points

to the

increase in net

interest margin,

as well

as the

continued deployment of

cash flows

from lower-

yielding investment securities to higher-yielding assets. Net interest

margin increased to 4.87% compared to 4.75%.

Provision for credit losses –

remained flat at $17.3 million when compared to the previous

quarter. The provision for credit losses for the second

quarter of 2026

reflected a lower

benefit from macroeconomic

factors than in

the previous quarter

and higher loan

growth, partially offset

by a

$5.0 million decrease in net charge-offs.

Non-interest income –

$35.7 million compared to $37.7

million.

The decrease was mainly due

to $3.6 million in

seasonal contingent insurance

commissions recorded in the first quarter of 2026.

Non-interest expenses

– remained relatively flat at $127.3 million compared to

$127.1 million in the previous quarter.

Income tax

expense

– $24.1

million compared

to $25.5

million,

mainly due

to a

lower estimated

annual effective

tax rate,

partially offset

by

higher pre-tax income.

Balance

Sheet

Total

loans –

increased by $168.8 million to

$13.3 billion, driven by

commercial and industrial (“C&I”) loan growth

in the Puerto Rico

region.

Total loan originations of $1.7 billion, up $469.5 million, mainly in commercial and construction

loans.

Government deposits (fully collateralized) –

increased by $167.7 million to $3.0 billion, mainly in the Puerto

Rico region.

Brokered certificates of deposits (“CDs”)

– increased by $87.7 million to $594.8 million in the Florida

region.

Core deposits (other than brokered and government deposits) –

increased by $18.3 million to $13.2 billion.

Asset

Quality

Allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) coverage ratio –

amounted to 1.85% compared to 1.87%.

Annualized net

charge-offs to

average loans

ratio

decreased to

0.49% compared

to 0.65%,

primarily reflecting

a $4.7

million reduction

in

consumer loans and finance leases net charge-offs, mainly in the auto loan

portfolio.

Non-performing loans –

increased by $6.8 million

to $94.6 million, driven

by the migration of

a $14.8 million C&I

relationship in the

Florida

region to nonaccrual status during the second quarter of 2026.

Loans

in

early

delinquency

(30-89

days

past

due)

increased

by

$32.9

million

to

$143.4

million,

driven

by

a

$20.7

million

increase

in

consumer loans and finance leases, primarily in the auto loan

portfolio.

Liquidity

and

Capital

Liquidity –

Cash and cash

equivalents amounted to

$561.3 million compared

to $550.9 million.

When adding $2.1

billion of

free high-quality

liquid securities that could be liquidated or pledged within one day and $1.1 billion in available lending capacity at the Federal Home Loan Bank

(“FHLB”), available liquidity amounted to 19.60% of total

assets compared to 20.14%.

Capital –

Repurchased $50.0 million in common stock and

declared $31.0 million in common stock dividends. Capital

ratios exceeded required

regulatory

levels.

The

Corporation’s

estimated

total

capital,

common

equity

tier

1

(“CET1”) capital,

tier

1

capital,

and

leverage

ratios

were

18.21%, 16.96%, 16.96%, and 11.72%, respectively, as of June 30, 2026. On a non-GAAP basis, the tangible common equity ratio

(1)

decreased to

10.08% compared to 10.11%, mainly due to an increase in tangible assets.

Net

amounted

to

million

for

the

second

quarter

of

2026,

an

increase

of

$8.1

million,

compared

to

$221.0

million

for

the

first

quarter

of

2026,

which

includes

an

increase

of

approximately

$1.6

million

associated

with

the

effect

of

an

additional day in the second quarter of 2026. The increase in net interest income

reflects the following:

A $4.5

million net

increase in

interest income

on investment

securities and

interest-earning

cash balances,

primarily driven

by

$3.6

million

of

higher

interest

income

on

investment

securities,

which

reflected

both

the

benefit

of

higher

yields

on

available-for-sale

debt

securities

as

a

result

of

purchases

of

higher-yielding

debt

securities

replacing

maturities

of

lower-

yielding debt securities

and $1.8 million resulting

from the acceleration of

the unamortized purchase

discount on a municipal

bond

refinanced

during

the

second

quarter

of

2026

into

a

shorter-term

commercial

loan

structure.

These

increases

were

partially

offset

by a

$0.7 million

decrease

in interest

income from

interest-earning

cash balances,

mainly

due

to a

decrease

associated

with

a

$78.5

million

reduction

in

the

average

balances,

which

consisted

primarily

of

cash

maintained

at

the

Federal Reserve Bank (“FED”).

A $3.3 million increase in interest income on loans, driven by:

-

A

$2.9 million

increase in

interest income

on commercial

and construction

loans, driven

by $1.6

million resulting

from

the acceleration

of net

deferred fees

associated with

the refinancing

of a

C&I loan

in the

Puerto Rico

region and

a $1.1

million increase associated with the effect of an

additional day in the second quarter of 2026.

-

A $0.4

million increase

in interest

income on

residential mortgage

loans, mainly

due to

$0.5 million

of interest

income

recognized

during the

second quarter

of 2026

from the

payoff

of a

nonaccrual

residential mortgage

loan in

the Florida

region.

A

$0.6

million

decrease

in

interest

expense

on

advances

from

the

FHLB

associated

with

a

$50.6

million

decrease

in

the

average balance.

Partially offset by:

A $0.3 million increase in interest expense on interest-bearing deposits,

consisting of:

-

A $1.4 million

increase in interest

expense on

interest-bearing checking

and saving accounts,

of which $0.9

million was

associated with higher interest rates paid in the second

quarter of 2026, mainly on government deposits. The average

cost

of interest-bearing checking

and saving accounts in the

second quarter increased 5

basis points to 1.26% when

compared

First BanCorp. Announces Earnings for the Quarter Ended June 30,

2026

– Page 3 of 28

to

the

previous

quarter.

Excluding

government

deposits,

the

average

cost

of

interest-bearing

checking

and

saving

accounts remained unchanged at 0.66% in both the second and first quarters of

2026.

Partially offset by:

-

A $0.8 million

decrease in interest

expense on

time deposits, excluding

brokered CDs,

mainly due

to issuances at

lower

rates during the second quarter of 2026.

-

A

$0.3

million

decrease

in

interest

expense

on

brokered

CDs,

mainly

associated

with

a

$27.4

million

decline

in

the

average balance.

Net interest

margin for

the second

quarter of

2026 was

4.87%, a

12 basis point

s

increase when

compared to

the first

quarter of

2026,

mostly

related

to

the

acceleration

of

the

unamortized

purchase

discount

and

net

deferred

fees

associated

with

the

aforementioned

refinancings during

the second quarter

of 2026, which

contributed approximately

7 basis points

to the increase

in net interest

margin,

and the deployment of cash flows from lower-yielding investment

securities to higher-yielding assets.

Non-interest income decreased

by $2.0 million to

second quarter of 2026,

compared to $37.7 million

for the first

quarter of

2026, mainly

due to

$3.6 million

in seasonal

contingent commissions

recorded as

part of

insurance commission

income in

the first

quarter of

2026 based

on the

prior year’s

production of

insurance policies,

partially offset

by a $0.8

million increase

in debit

and credit card processing

income driven by higher transactional

volumes during the second quarter

of 2026. Other variances included

a $0.6 million gain recognized during

the second quarter of 2026 from

the sale of a fixed asset in the

Florida region, partially offset

by

a $0.3 million decrease in realized gains from purchased income tax credits,

both reported as part of other non-interest income.

Non-interest expenses

in the

of 2026,

an increase

of $0.2

million, from

$127.1 million

in

the first quarter of 2026. Non-interest expenses for the second quarter of

2026 reflect the following significant variances:

A

$1.9

million

decrease

in

employees’

compensation

and

benefits

expenses,

driven

by

$1.8

million

in

stock-based

compensation

expense

of

retirement-eligible

employees

recognized

during

the

first

quarter

of

2026

and

a

$1.3

million

decrease in payroll taxes

due to employees reaching

maximum taxable amounts, partially

offset by a $1.

1

million increase in

salary compensation mainly due to the effect of an additional working

day in the second quarter of 2026.

A $1.2 million increase in credit and debit card processing expenses, mainly

due to higher transactional volumes.

A $0.9

million increase

in business promotion

expenses as

a result

of certain

marketing efforts

during the

second quarter

of

2026.

INCOME TAXES

The Corporation

recorded an

income tax

expense of

$24.1 million

for the

second quarter

of 2026,

compared to

$25.5 million

for the

first quarter

of 2026.

The decrease

in income

tax expense

was driven

by a

lower estimated

annual effective

tax rate

mostly related

to

higher than previously

forecasted business activities

with preferential tax

treatment under the

Puerto Rico tax

code, partially offset

by

higher pre-tax income.

For the year, the Corporation’s

annual effective tax rate was estimated at 21.5%

for the second quarter of 2026, compared to 21.9% for

the

first

quarter

of

2026.

As

of

June

30,

2026,

the

Corporation

had

a

net

deferred

tax

asset

of

$142.0

million,

net

of

a

as “units of

account” both at

the time of

adoption of current

as the Corporation can

reasonably estimate the

timing and amount

of cash flows expected

to be collected

on the loan pools.

The portion of

Under the GNMA

program, the Corporation

loans, and a $2.1 million decrease

in nonaccrual

consumer loans, mainly in the auto loan and finance leases portfolios.

Inflows to nonaccrual loans held for investment were

Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans and Finance

Leases

As of June 30, 2026,

the ACL for loans and

finance leases was $245.0 million,

compared to $245.1 million

as of March 31, 2026. The

ratio of the ACL

for loans and finance

leases to total loans

held for investment

was 1.85% as of

June 30, 2026, compared

to 1.87% as

of March 31, 2026.

The

ACL

for

consumer

loans

decreased

by

$1.0

million,

driven

by

lower

delinquency

levels

in

the

unsecured

loan

portfolios

and

improvements

in

macroeconomic

variables

in

the

secured

loan

portfolios,

partially

offset

by

loan

growth

and

higher

delinquency

levels in

the auto

loans and

finance leases

portfolio.

In addition,

the ACL

for commercial

and

construction

loans decreased

by $0.3

million,

mainly

due

to

an

improvement

in

the

projection

of

certain

macroeconomic

variables,

partially

offset

by

loan

growth.

Meanwhile, the ACL for residential mortgage loans increased by

$1.2 million driven by loan growth.

The

provision

for

credit

losses

on

loans

and

finance

leases

was

$16.0

million

for

the

second

quarter

of

2026,

compared

to

$17.2

million in the first quarter of 2026, as detailed below:

Provision

for

credit

losses

on

the

consumer

loan

and

finance

lease

portfolios

was

an

expense

of

$14.9

million

for

the

second quarter of

2026, compared to

an expense of $18.0

million for the first

quarter of 2026.

The $3.1 million

decrease

in provision

expense was

driven by

a $4.7

million reduction

in net

charge-offs,

partially offset

by a

lower benefit

from

macroeconomic factors than in the previous quarter.

Provision

for

credit

losses

on

the

residential

mortgage

loan

portfolio

was

an

expense

of

$1.3

million

for

the

second

quarter

of

2026,

compared

to

an

expense

of

$0.2

million

for

the

first

quarter

of

2026.

The

$1.1

million

increase

in

provision expense was driven by higher loan growth than the previous quarter.

Provision for

credit losses

on the

commercial

and construction

loan portfolios

was a

net benefit

of $0.2

million for

the

second quarter

of 2026,

compared to

a net

benefit of

$1.0 million

for the

first quarter

of 2026.

The net

benefit recorded

during

the

first

quarter of

2026 was

mainly

due

to improvements

in

the

projections

of the

unemployment

rate

and

the

CRE price index, partially offset by renewals and refinancings.

annualized 0.65% of

average loans, in

the first quarter

net charge-offs was

driven

by a $4.7 million reduction in consumer loans and finance leases net charge

-offs, mainly in the auto loan portfolio.

Allowance for Credit Losses for Unfunded Loan

Commitments

As of June

30, 2026,

the ACL for

off-balance sheet

credit exposures

increased to

$4.6 million, compared

to $3.1 million

as of March

31, 2026, primarily driven by renewals of existing C&I lines of credit.

Allowance for Credit Losses for Debt Securities

As of June

30, 2026, the

ACL for debt

securities was $1.4

million, of which

$0.5 million was

related to Puerto

Rico municipal bonds

classified as held-to-maturity,

compared to $1.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively,

as of March 31, 2026.

STATEMENT

OF FINANCIAL CONDITION

Total

assets were

approximately $19.2

billion as

of June

30, 2026,

up $155.1

million from

March 31,

2026. The

following variances

within the main components of total assets are noted:

A $168.8 million

increase in total loans

,

primarily driven by

a $151.3 million

increase in commercial

and construction loans.

The

growth

was mainly

attributable

to

a

$129.9

million

increase

in

C&I

loans

in

the

Puerto

Rico

region,

of

which

$112.1

million

were

related

to

the

increased

exposure

of

a

participated

loan

related

to

a

public-private

partnership

for

toll

roads

infrastructure

improvement

and a

participated

municipal

loan (including

the conversion

of a

municipal bond)

as a

result of

the aforementioned refinancings;

and a new $19.5 million term loan extended to an existing relationship.

Total

loan originations,

including refinancings, renewals,

and draws from

existing commitments, amounted

to $1.7 billion

in

the second quarter of 2026, an increase of $469.5 million compared to the first

quarter of 2026.

Total

loan originations in

the Puerto Rico region

amounted to $1.4 billion

in the second quarter

of 2026, compared

to $848.9

million in

the first

quarter of

2026.

The increase

of $509.7

million in

total loan

originations was

mainly in

commercial and

construction loans,

driven by

the aforementioned

refinancings during

the second quarter

of 2026

totaling $270.6

million and

higher utilization of C&I lines of credit.

Total

loan originations

in the

Florida region

amounted to

$333.0 million

in the

second quarter

of 2026,

compared to

$228.4

million in

the first

quarter of

2026.

The increase

of $104.6

million in

total loan

originations was

mainly related

to a

$102.4

million

increase

in

commercial

and

construction

loans,

including

$65.3

million

in

C&I

loan

originations

due

to

the

origination

of

multiple

term

loans,

and

$36.9

million

in

commercial

mortgage

originations

due

to

the

refinancing

of

a

commercial mortgage revolving line of credit totaling $22.9 million.

Total

loan

originations

in

the Virgin

Islands region

amounted

to

$26.1

million

in

the second

quarter

of 2026,

compared

to

$170.9 million in the first quarter of 2026.

A $10.4

million increase

in cash

and cash

equivalents, mainly

related to

the overall

increase in

deposits and

the net

income

generated

in

the

second

quarter

of

2026.

These

increases

were

partially

offset

by

net

cash

outflows

from

lending

and

investment activities, the repayment at maturity of a $90.0 million FHLB short

-term advance,

and capital deployment actions.

Partially offset by:

A

$13.2

million

decrease

in

investment

securities,

driven

by

repayments

of

$368.3

million

of

U.S.

agencies’

MBS

and

debentures, of which $155.0 million was associated with matured

securities; repayments of $10.7 million of municipal bonds,

which include the aforementioned

refinancing of a municipal

bond; and a $7.7

million decrease in the

fair value of available-

for-sale

debt

securities

attributable

to

changes

in

market

interest

rates.

These

decreases

were

partially

offset

by

purchases

during the

second quarter

of 2026

of $374.8

million in U.S.

agencies’ MBS

and debentures at

an average

yield of

4.92%. In

addition, during the

second quarter of 2026,

$375.0 million in matured

U.S. Treasury

bills at an average

yield of 3.48% were

replaced with $370.4 million in U.S. Treasury

bills at an average yield of 3.71%.

Total

liabilities

were

approximately

$17.3

billion

as

of

June

30,

2026,

an

increase

of

$145.5

million

from

March

31,

2026.

The

following variances within the main components of total liabilities are noted:

Total deposits increased

by $273.7 million consisting of:

o

A

$167.7 million increase in government deposits, driven by an increase

of $159.4 million in the Puerto Rico region.

o

An $87.7

million increase

in brokered

CDs in

the Florida

region.

The increase

consisted of

$179.9 million

of new

issuances with original

average maturities of

approximately 0.7 years

and an all-in

cost of 4.00%,

partially offset by

maturing brokered CDs amounting to $92.2

million with an all-in cost of 4.30% that were

paid off during the second

quarter of 2026.

o

An $18.3

million increase

in deposits,

excluding brokered

CDs and

government

deposits, consisting

of an

increase

of $42.2 million

in the Florida region

,

partially offset by

decreases of $13.8

million in the Virgin

Islands region and

$10.1 million

in the Puerto

Rico region.

The increase

in such

deposits consisted

of a

$19.3 million

increase in non-

interest-bearing deposits.

related

to

the

aforementioned

repayment

of

a

$90.0

short-term

FHLB

advance that matured during the second quarter of 2026.

Total

stockholders’ equity

amounted to

$2.0 billion

as of

June 30,

2026, an

increase of

$9.6 million

from March

31, 2026,

driven by

the net

income generated

in the

second quarter

of 2026,

partially offset

by $50.0

common stock

repurchases at

an average

price of

$25.08, $31.0

million in

dividends declared

in the

second quarter

of 2026,

Exposure to Puerto Rico Government

Direct Exposure

As of

June

30,

2026,

the

Corporation

had

$379.4

million

of

direct

exposure

to

the

Puerto

Rico

government,

its municipalities

,

and

public corporations, an

increase of $81.9 million

compared to $297.5 million

as of March 31,

2026, mainly due

to the aforementioned

refinancing

of

a

participated

municipal

loan

in

the

Puerto

Rico

region.

As

of

June

30,

2026,

approximately

$293.0

million

of

the

exposure consisted

of loans and

obligations of municipalities

in Puerto Rico

that are supported

by assigned property

tax revenues

and

for which,

in most

cases, the good

faith, credit,

and unlimited

taxing power

of the applicable

municipality have

been pledged

to their

repayment,

and

$33.6

million

consisted

of loans

and obligations

which

are supported

by one

or more

specific

sources of

municipal

revenues. The Corporation’s

total direct

exposure to

the Puerto

Rico government

also included

$8.6 million

in a

loan extended

to an

affiliate of the Puerto

Rico Electric Power Authority

and $41.6 million in loans

to a public corporation

of Puerto Rico. In addition,

the

total direct exposure

included an obligation

of the Puerto

Rico government,

specifically a residential

pass-through MBS

issued by the

PRHFA,

at an

amortized

cost of

$2.6 million

(fair value

of $1.6

million

as of

June 30,

2026), included

as part

of the

Corporation’s

available-for-sale debt securities portfolio. This residential pass-through

MBS issued by the PRHFA

is collateralized by certain second

mortgages and had an unrealized loss of $1.0 million as of June 30, 2026, of which

$0.3 million is due to credit deterioration.

The

aforementioned

exposure

to

municipalities

in

Puerto

Rico

included

$71.1

million

of

financing

arrangements

with

Puerto

Rico

municipalities

that

were

issued

in

bond

form

but

underwritten

as

loans

with

features

that

are

typically

found

in

commercial

loans.

These bonds are accounted for as held-to-maturity debt securities.

Indirect Exposure

As of

June 30,

2026 and

March 31,

2026, the

Corporation had

$2.6 billion

and $2.4

billion, respectively,

of public

sector deposits

in

Puerto Rico. Approximately 21%

of the public sector deposits as of

June 30, 2026 were from municipalities

and municipal agencies in

Puerto Rico, and

79% were from

public corporations,

the Puerto

Rico central government

and agencies,

and U.S. federal

government

agencies in Puerto Rico.

Additionally, as of

June 30, 2026, the outstanding balance of construction

loans funded through conduit financing structures to support

the federal programs of Low-Income

Housing Tax

Credit combined with other federal

programs amounted to $75.0 million,

compared

to

$81.6

million

as

of

March

31,

2026.

The

main

objective

of

these

programs

is

to

spur

development

in

new

or

rehabilitated

and

affordable

rental housing.

PRHFA,

as program

subrecipient and

conduit issuer,

issues tax-exempt

obligations

which are

acquired by

private

financial

institutions

and

are

required

to

co-underwrite

with

PRHFA

a

mirror

construction

loan

agreement

for

the

specific

project

loan

to

which

the

Corporation

will

serve

as

ultimate

lender

but

where

the

PRHFA

will

be

the

lender

of

record.

The

total

amount of unfunded loan commitments related to these loans as of June 30, 2026

was $39.2 million.

NON-GAAP DISCLOSURES

This

press

release

contains

GAAP

financial

measures

and

non-GAAP

financial

measures.

Non-GAAP

financial

measures

are

used

when management believes

that the presentation of

these non-GAAP financial

measures enhances the

ability of analysts and

investors

to analyze trends

in the Corporation’s

business and understand

the performance of the

Corporation. The Corporation

may utilize these

non-GAAP

financial measures

as guides

in its

budgeting and

long-term planning

process. Where

non-GAAP

financial measures

are

used,

the

most

comparable

GAAP

financial

measure,

as

well

as

the

reconciliation

of

the

non-GAAP

financial

measure

to

the

most

comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found

in the text or in the tables in or attached to this press release.

Any analysis of these

non-GAAP financial measures should be used only in conjunction with results

presented in accordance with GAAP.

Certain non-GAAP

financial measures,

such as

adjusted non-interest

expenses, adjusted

net income,

adjusted earnings

per share,

and

adjusted

pre-tax,

pre-provision

income,

exclude

the

effect

of

items

that

management

believes

are

not

reflective

of

core

operating

performance

(the

“Special

Items”).

Other

non-GAAP

financial

measures

include

net

interest

income,

interest

rate

spread,

and

net

interest margin

each presented on a

tax-equivalent basis; tangible

common equity; tangible

book value per common

share; and certain

capital ratios.

These measures

should be

read in

conjunction with

the accompanying

tables (Exhibit

A), which

are an

integral part

of

this press release, and the Corporation’s

other financial information that is presented in accordance with GAAP.

Special Items

The financial

results for the

quarter ended

March 31, 2026

and six-month

period ended

June 30, 2026

included the

following Special

Item:

FDIC Special Assessment Reversal

-

A benefit

of $0.1

million ($57

thousand

after-tax,

calculated based

on the

statutory tax

rate of

37.5%) was

recorded

during

the

first

quarter

of

2026

following

receipt

of

the

FDIC

assessment

invoice,

paid

on

March

30,

2026,

which

reduced

the

quarterly

special assessment

rate for

the eighth

and final

collection period

from 3.36

bps to

2.97 bps.

Any future

offsets or

one-time final shortfall special assessment

collection, if any,

will be communicated by the

FDIC through future invoices. The

FDIC deposit

special assessment

is reflected

in the

consolidated

statements of

income

as part

of “FDIC

deposit

insurance”

expenses.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Tangible

Common Equity Ratio and Tangible

Book Value

per Common Share

The

tangible

common

equity

ratio

and

tangible

book

value

per

common

share

are

non-GAAP

financial

measures

that

management

believes are generally

used by the financial

community to evaluate

capital adequacy.

Tangible

common equity is total

common equity

less goodwill

and other

intangible assets.

Tangible

assets are

total assets

less goodwill

and other

intangible assets.

Tangible

common

equity ratio is tangible common

equity divided by tangible assets. Tangible

book value per common share is

tangible assets divided by

common shares

outstanding. Refer

to

Statement of

Financial Condition

– Tangible

Common Equity

(Non-GAAP)

for a

reconciliation

of

the

Corporation’s

total

stockholders’

equity

and

total

assets

in

accordance

with

GAAP

to

the

non-GAAP

financial

measures

of

tangible

common

equity

and

tangible

assets, respectively.

Management

uses and

believes that

many

stock

analysts

use

the

tangible

common

equity

ratio

and

tangible

book

value

per

common

share

in

conjunction

with

other

more

traditional

bank

capital

ratios

to

compare

the

capital

adequacy

of

banking

organizations

with

significant

amounts

of

goodwill

or

other

intangible

assets,

typically

stemming from the use

of the purchase method of

accounting for mergers and

acquisitions. Accordingly,

the Corporation believes that

disclosure of

these financial

measures may

be useful

to investors.

Neither tangible

common equity

nor tangible

assets, or

the related

measures, should

be considered in

isolation or

as a substitute

for stockholders’

equity,

total assets, or

any other measure

calculated in

accordance with

GAAP.

Moreover,

the manner

in which

the Corporation

calculates its

tangible

common equity,

tangible assets,

and

any other related measures may differ from that of other companies

reporting measures with similar names.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Non-Interest Expenses

To

supplement

the

Corporation’s

financial

statements

presented

in

accordance

with

GAAP,

the

Corporation

uses,

and

believes

that

investors benefit from disclosure of, non

-GAAP financial measures that reflect

adjustments to net income and non-interest

expenses to

exclude Special Items.

Adjusted Pre-Tax,

Pre-Provision Income

Adjusted

pre-tax,

pre-provision

income

is

a

non-GAAP

performance

metric

that

management

uses

and

believes

that

investors

may

find

useful

in

analyzing

underlying

performance

trends,

particularly

in

times

of

economic

stress,

including

as

a

result

of

natural

catastrophes

or

health

epidemics.

Adjusted

pre-tax,

pre-provision

income,

as

defined

by

management,

represents

income

before

income

taxes

adjusted

to

exclude

the

provisions

for

credit

losses

on

loans,

unfunded

loan

commitments

and

debt

securities.

In

addition, from

time to time,

earnings are

also adjusted for

certain items

that management

believes are

not reflective

of core operating

performance, which are regarded as Special Items.

Net Interest Income on a Tax

-Equivalent Basis

Net interest income,

interest rate spread,

and net interest

margin are

reported on a

tax-equivalent basis in

order to provide

to investors

additional information

about the Corporation’s

net interest

income that

management uses

and believes

should facilitate

comparability

and analysis

of the

periods presented.

The tax-equivalent

adjustment to

net interest

income recognizes

the income

tax savings

when

comparing taxable and tax-exempt

assets and assumes a marginal

income tax rate. Income from tax-exempt

earning assets is increased

by an

amount equivalent

to the

taxes that

would have

been paid

if this

income had

been taxable

at statutory

rates. Refer

to Tables

4

and 5

in the

accompanying tables

(Exhibit A)

for a

reconciliation of

the Corporation’s

net interest

income on

a tax-equivalent

basis.

Management believes

that it

is a standard

practice in

the banking

industry to

present net

interest income,

interest rate

spread, and

net

interest

margin

on

a

fully

tax-equivalent

basis.

This

adjustment

puts

all earning

assets,

most

notably

tax-exempt

securities and

tax-

exempt loans, on a common basis that management believes facilitates comparison

of results to the results of peers.

loans previously

accounted for

Subtopic 310-30

for which

the Corporation

made the

accounting policy

election of

maintaining pools

of loans

as “units

of account”

both at

the time

of

adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020 and

on an ongoing basis for credit loss measurement. These loans will

continue to be excluded from nonaccrual loan statistics as long

as the Corporation can reasonably estimate

the timing and amount of cash flows

expected to be collected on the loan

pools. The portion of such loans contractually

past due 90 days or more amounted

to $3.6 million as of June 30,

2026 (March 31, 2026 - $4.2

million; December 31, 2025 - $4.8 million).

(3)

These include rebooked loans,

which were previously pooled into

GNMA securities, amounting to $4.6

million as of June 30,

2026 and $6.7 million as

of each of March

31, 2026 and December 31,

2025. Under the

GNMA program, the

Corporation has the

option but not

the obligation to

repurchase loans that

meet GNMA's specified

delinquency criteria. For

accounting purposes, the

loans subject to

the repurchase option

are

required to be reflected on the financial statements with an offsetting liability.

Forward Looking Statements This presentation contains “forward

-looking statements” concerning the Corporation’s future economic,

operational and financial performance. The words or phrases

“expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “should,” “would,” “will,” “plans,”

“forecast,” “believe” and similar expressions are meant to identify

“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, and are

subject to the safe harbor created by such sections. The Corporation cautions

readers not to place undue reliance on any such forward

-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof, and advises readers

that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future

performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties, estimates

and assumptions by us that are difficult to predict. Various

factors, some of which are beyond our control, including, but not

limited to, the uncertainties more fully discussed in Part I, Item

1A, “Risk Factors” of the Corporation’s Annual Report on Form

10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, and the following, could

cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in,

or implied by, such forward-looking statements: the effect

of the current global interest rate environment (including the potential for

ongoing reductions in interest rates) and inflation levels on the level, composition

and performance of the Corporation’s assets and liabilities, and

corresponding effects on the Corporation’s net interest income,

net interest margin, loan originations, deposit attrition, overall

results of operations, and liquidity position; the effects

of changes in the interest rate environment, including any adverse

change in the Corporation’s ability to attract and retain clients and

gain acceptance from current and prospective customers for new

products and services,

including those related to the offering of digital banking and financial

services; volatility in the financial services industry, which could

result in, among other things, bank deposit runoffs, liquidity

constraints, and increased regulatory requirements and costs;

uncertainty as to the ability of FirstBank to retain its core deposits

and generate sufficient cash flow through its wholesale funding

sources, which may require us to sell investment securities at a loss;

the impacts of natural or man-made disasters, widespread health

emergencies, geopolitical conflicts (including sanctions, war or

armed conflict, such as the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, ongoing

conflicts in the Middle East, such as the war in Iran); adverse

changes in general political and economic conditions in Puerto

Rico, the U.S., and the U.S. and British Virgin Islands, includi

ng in the interest rate environment, unemployment rates, market

liquidity, housing absorption rates, real estate markets and U.S.

capital markets; general competitive factors and other market risks

as well as the implementation of existent or planned strategic growth

opportunities, including risks, uncertainties, and other factors

or events related to any business acquisitions, dispositions, strategic

partnerships, strategic operational investments including system

conversions, and any anticipated efficiencies or other expected

results related thereto; the impact of litigation or the threat of litigation,

including any settlements or judgments against the Corporation,

and the potential resulting liabilities, costs, negative publicity or other

reputational harm; the effects of asserted and unasserted claims

and the extent of available insurance coverage; uncertainty

as to the implementation of the debt restructuring plan of Puerto Rico

and the Fiscal Plan for Puerto Rico as certified on June 19, 2026 by

the Financial Oversight and Management Board for Puerto Rico,

or any revisions to it, on our clients

and loan portfolios, and any potential impact from future economic or political

developments and tax regulations in Puerto Rico; the impact of government

financial assistance for hurricane recovery and other

disaster relief on economic activity in Puerto Rico; the timing of sales of

properties from our other real estate owned (“OREO”)

portfolio; the impacts of applicable legislative, tax or regulatory changes

on the Corporation’s financial condition or performance;

and the effect of continued changes in the fiscal, monetary, and trade

policies and regulations of the U.S. federal government, the Puerto

Rico government and other governments. The Corporation does

not undertake and specifically disclaims any obligation to update

any “forward-looking statements” to reflect occurrences

or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements, except

as required by the federal securities laws. Non-GAAP Financial

Measures In addition to the Corporation’s financial information

presented in accordance with GAAP, management uses

certain “non-GAAP” financial measures” within the meaning

of Regulation G promulgated by the SEC, to clarify and enhance

understanding of past performance and prospects for the future.

Second Quarter 2026 – Profitability Dynamics Net Interest Income

($MM) $215.9 $217.9 $222.8 $221.0 $229.1 4.56% 4.57% 4.68%

4.75% 4.87% 2Q25 3Q25 4Q25 1Q26 2Q26 Net Interest Income

($) Net Interest Margin (GAAP %) Key Highlights Net interest

income amounted to $229.1 million, an increase of $8.1 million vs.

the prior quarter; primarily reflecting the following: A $4.5

million net increase in interest income on investments and cash balances

due to purchases of higher yielding investments replacing

lower yielding securities and the acceleration of an unamortized purchase

discount on municipal securities that were refinanced,

partially offset by a decrease in interest income from lower cash balances

A $3.3 million increase in interest income on loans related to 1) the acceleration

of net deferred fees associated to a C&I refinancing and a $2.9 million

increase in interest income on commercial loans partially attributed

to the effect of one additional day in the quarter and 2) a $0.4

million increase in interest income on residential mortgage loans attributed

to the payoff of a nonaccrual mortgage loan in Florida A $0.6

million decrease in interest expense due to lower FHLB average

balances which was offset by a $0.3 million net increase

in interest expense on interest-bearing deposits mostly due to higher rates

on interest-bearing government deposits paid during the quarter

Net interest margin increased during the quarter by 12 basis points to

4.87%, mostly related to the acceleration of the unamortized

purchase discount and net deferred fees associated with the refinancings during

the quarter, which contributed 7 bps to the NIM expansion,

and the deployment of cash flows from lower-yielding investment securities

to higher-yielding assets Evolution of Loan Yields and Cost of

2Q25 3Q25 4Q25 1Q26 2Q26 Other Mortgage Banking Service

Charges on Deposits Key Highlights Non-interest income of

$35.7 million, compared to $37.7 million in prior quarter;

the $2.0 million decrease was mainly due to: $3.6 million in seasonal

contingent commissions recorded as part of insurance commission

income in the first quarter of 2026 based on the prior year’s production

of insurance policies Partially offset by a $0.8 million increase

in debit and credit card processing income driven by higher transactional

volumes during the second quarter of 2026 Non-Interest Expenses ($MM)

$1,233.3 $124.9 $126.9 $127.1 $127.3 $0.0 $1.9 $0.2 -$0.2

$9.8 $9.8 $9.9 $9.9 $9.9 2Q25 3Q25 4Q25 1Q26 2Q26 Credit

Related Payroll Related Other Operating Expenses Key Highlights Non

-interest expenses of $127.3 million, relatively flat vs. prior quarter

due to: A $1.9 million net decrease in payroll expenses due to seasonal

share-based compensation recorded in the first quarter and lower

payroll taxes, which were partially offset by an increase in salary

compensation mainly due to the effect of one additional day in the

second quarter A $1.2 million increase in credit and debit card processing

expenses, mainly due to higher transactional volumes and a

$0.9 million increase in business promotion expenses recorded

in the second quarter Efficiency ratio relatively stable at 48%, below

the 52% operating target 9

1Q26 2Q26 Total non-performing assets increased

by $5.1 million to $113.9 million or 0.59% of total assets Increase

in non-performing assets was driven by a $6.8 million increase in nonaccrual

loans primarily attributed to the inflow of a $14.8 million C&I

loan in Florida, partially offset by reductions in nonaccrual

residential mortgage and consumer loans, mainly auto and leases Inflows

to non-accrual loans held for investment were $40.7 million, an

increase of $6.4 million when compared to the prior quarter, mostly

driven by the aforementioned Florida commercial loan inflow,

partially offset by overall reductions in consumer and residential

mortgage loan inflows Loans in early delinquency (i.e., 30-89 days

past due accruing loans) amounted to $143.4 million, an increase

of $32.9 million vs. 1Q 2026, driven by a $20.7 million increase

in consumer loans, primarily in the auto loan portfolio 10

1Q26 2Q26 Off-BS Credit Exposure & Debt Securities Loans ACL

on Loans/Loans Key Highlights The allowance for credit losses

(ACL) on loans and leases was $245.0 million, flat vs. prior quarter;

the ratio of the ACL on loans and finance leases to total loans held

for investment decreased to 1.85% Variance was mainly

related to lower consumer and commercial ACL due to improved macroeconomic

variables, partially offset an increase in the mortgage ACL mostly

due to loan growth Net charge-offs of $16.1 million, 0.49% of

average loans, compared to $21.1 million or 0.65% in prior quarter,

decrease mostly driven by a $4.7 million reduction in consumer

net charge-offs, primarily auto loans and leases Capital Ratios (%)

2Q26 Total Risk-Based Capital Tier-1 Common Leverage

Tangible Common Key Highlights Total stockholders’ equity amounted

to $2.0 billion, an increase of $9.6 million vs. the prior quarter,

driven by earnings generated during the quarter Partially offset by

$50.0 million in common stock repurchases, $31.0 million in common

stock dividends declared during the quarter, and a $7.7 million

decrease in the fair value of available-for-sale debt securities due to changes

in market rates recognized as part of accumulated other comprehensive

loss All regulatory ratios remain significantly above “well-capitalized”

levels 11

Second Quarter 2026 – Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures Basis

of Presentation: Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation

contains non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial

measures are used when management believes that the presentation

of these non-GAAP financial measures enhances

the ability of analysts and investors to analyze trends in the Corporation’s

business and understand the performance of the Corporation. Where

non-GAAP financial measures are used, the most comparable

GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation of the non-GAAP

financial measure to the most comparable GAAP financial measure,

can be found in the text or in the attached tables to this earnings

presentation. Any analysis of these non-GAAP financial measures

should be used only in conjunction with results presented in accordance

with GAAP. Tangible Common Equity Ratio and Tangible

Book Value per Common Share The tangible common equity

ratio and tangible book value per common share are non-GAAP

financial measures that management believes are generally

used by the financial community to evaluate capital adequacy. Tangible

common equity is total common equity less goodwill and other intangibles.

Tangible assets are total assets less goodwill and other

intangibles. Management and many stock analysts use the tangible common

equity ratio and tangible book value per common share

in conjunction with more traditional bank capital ratios to compare

the capital adequacy of banking organizations with significant amounts

of goodwill or other intangible assets, typically stemming from the

use of the purchase method of accounting for mergers and acquisitions.

Accordingly,

the Corporation believes that disclosure of these financial measures

may be useful to investors. Neither tangible common equity nor tangible

assets, or the related measures, should be

considered in isolation or as a substitute for stockholders’ equity,

total assets, or any other measure calculated in accordance

with GAAP. Moreover, the way the Corporation calculates its tangible

common equity, tangible assets, and any other related measures

may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with

similar names. (in thousands, except ratios and per share information
