      Record total revenue and net interest income

      Adjusted diluted EPS (non-GAAP) of $0.35 per share

      31% average C&I loan growth from prior year

      Credit quality remained strong with annualized net charge-offs of 0.15% and nonperforming loans of 0.74%

      COLUMBUS, Ohio, Oct. 26, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Northwest Bancshares, Inc. (the "Company") (Nasdaq: NWBI) announced net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 of $51 million, or $0.34 per diluted share. This represents an increase of $48 million compared to the same quarter last year, when net income was $3 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, and a decrease of $3 million compared to the prior quarter, when net income was $54 million, or $0.36 per diluted share. The annualized returns on average shareholders' equity and average assets for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 were 10.42% and 1.18% compared to 0.69% and 0.08% for the same quarter last year and 11.20% and 1.27% for the prior quarter.

      Adjusted net income (non-GAAP) for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 was $51 million, or $0.35, per diluted share, which decreased by $3 million from $54 million, or $0.37, per diluted share, in the prior quarter. This decrease was primarily driven by an increase in provision for credit losses expense of $2 million and an increase in noninterest expense of $5 million which were partially offset by an increase in net interest income of $2 million and an increase in noninterest income of $2 million. The adjusted annualized returns on average shareholders' equity (non-GAAP) and average assets (non-GAAP) for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 were 10.45% and 1.18% compared to 11.26% and 1.28% for the prior quarter.

      The Company also announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per share payable on November 17, 2026 to shareholders of record as of November 5, 2026. This is the 128th consecutive quarter in which the Company has paid a cash dividend. Based on the market value of the Company's common stock as of September 30, 2026, this represents an annualized dividend yield of approximately 5.4%.

      Louis J. Torchio, President and CEO, Northwest Bancshares commented, "The Northwest Team delivered yet another quarter of strong performance, with record total revenue and net interest income, and a balanced and consistent performance across the whole bank. We drove 31% year-over-year average loan growth in our C&I business, with continued growth in our national specialty business verticals and middle market portfolio, and benefited from the strength of our retail deposit franchise and low deposit costs, one of the best-in-class among our peers. 

      We continue to execute our strategy for delivering sustainable, responsible growth, investing in its key drivers, including our people, our communities and the physical infrastructure that make it possible. In the third quarter we opened our first two financial centers in Columbus, added talent in the Columbus market and to our senior leadership team, and maintained our expense management discipline, with an efficiency ratio of 58.9% and adjusted efficiency ratio of 57.8%. We were also recognized in Forbes' World's Top Performing Banks 2026.

      We look forward to a strong finish in the fourth quarter of 2026, as we build on the momentum the team is developing in Columbus and across our entire retail footprint and commercial network. Our focus remains on driving excellence across all aspects of the bank, continuing to optimize our operations, and serving our core customers and communities with the personal approach they value."

      Compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2025, net interest income increased $13 million and net interest margin increased to 3.70% from 3.65%. This increase in net interest income resulted primarily from the following:

      • A $15 million increase in interest income that was the result of:
        • An increase in average interest-earning assets partially driven by the Penns Woods acquisition during the third quarter 2025
        • Yields on average interest-earning assets was 5.22% for both periods with an increase in investment yields offset by a decline in loan yields
      • A $3 million increase in interest expense that was the result of :
        • An increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities partially driven by the Penns Woods acquisition
        • Partially offset by a decline in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities to 2.05% from 2.13%

      Compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2026, net interest income increased $2 million and net interest margin decreased to 3.70% for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 from 3.75%. This increase in net interest income resulted primarily from the following:

      • A $5 million increase in interest income that was driven by:
        • Growth in the average interest-earning balances
        • Yields on average interest-earning assets declined to 5.22% from 5.23% with an increase in investment yields offset by a decline in loan yields which was driven by a decline in the accretion of acquired loan fair value marks coupled with a change in portfolio mix 
      • A $3 million increase in interest expense driven by:
        • An increase in the average balance and average cost of interest-bearing liabilities
        • Average cost of interest-bearing deposits increased to 1.85% from 1.83% while average cost of borrowings declined slightly to 3.94% from 3.96%

      • Total provision for credit losses decreased $22 million primarily driven by the Day 1 initial provision from the Penns Woods acquisition of $20.6 million
      • Classified loans decreased $58 million driven by changes in our commercial real estate portfolio primarily due to the payoff of classified loans during the quarter 

      Compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2026:

      • Total provision for credit losses increased $2 million primarily driven by growth in our commercial lending portfolio, including unfunded commitments
      • Classified loans decreased $55 million driven by the same factors discussed above

      Noninterest expense decreased $25 million from the quarter ended September 30, 2025 due to the following reasons:

      • Personnel expense increased $1 million driven by an increase in core compensation and benefits expense due to the addition of Penns Woods employees
      • Non-personnel expense decreased by $25 million due to a $31 million decrease in merger, asset disposition and restructuring expense. This decrease was partially offset by an increase of $2 million in processing expenses and a $1 million increase in operating expense primarily due to the addition of the Penns Woods branches to our footprint.  

      Noninterest expense increased $5 million from the quarter ended June 30, 2026 due to the following reasons:

      • Non-personnel expense increased by $4 million due to an increase of $3 million in FDIC insurance premium expense, as the prior quarter included a benefit related to prior period assessment rate changes

      The provision for income taxes increased by $16 million from the quarter ended September 30, 2025 and decreased $1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 primarily due to the quarterly change in income before income taxes.

      Net income increased from the quarter ended September 30, 2025 and decreased from the quarter ended June 30, 2026 due to the factors discussed above.

The words "believe," "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "project," "target," "goal" and similar expressions are examples of language intended to identify forward-looking statements within the meaning of section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

      Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

      This release contains 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. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures allow for better comparability of period-to-period operating performance. Additionally, the Company believes this information is utilized by regulators and market analysts to evaluate a company's financial condition and therefore, such information is useful to investors. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. See the pages 9 and 10 of this release for reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures where applicable.

      The table summarizes the Company's results from operations on a GAAP basis and on an operating (non-GAAP) basis for the periods indicated. Operating results exclude merger, gain on sale of investments, asset disposition and restructuring expense and amortization expense. The net tax effect was calculated using statutory tax rates of approximately 28.0%. The Company believes this non-GAAP presentation provides a meaningful comparison of operational performance and facilitates a more effective evaluation and comparison of results to assess performance in relation to ongoing operations.
