Hilltop Holdings Inc. (NYSE:HTH) ("Hilltop") today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2025. Hilltop produced income to common stockholders of $36.1 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2025, compared to $20.3 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2024. Hilltop's financial results for the second quarter, compared with the same period in 2024, primarily included a reversal of credit losses and an increase in net interest income within the banking segment, net revenues and noninterest expenses increased within the broker-dealer segment, and the mortgage origination segment had declines in net interest expense, noninterest income and noninterest expense.

Hilltop also announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.18 per common share payable on August 29, 2025, to all common stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 15, 2025. Additionally, during the second quarter of 2025, Hilltop paid $34.9 million to repurchase an aggregate of 1,157,396 shares of its common stock at an average price of $30.17 per share pursuant to the 2025 stock repurchase program. These shares were returned to the pool of authorized but unissued shares of common stock.

Furthermore, in July 2025, the Hilltop Board of Directors authorized, subject to non-objection from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve, an increase to the aggregate amount of common stock that Hilltop may repurchase under the aforementioned stock repurchase program to $135.0 million, an increase of $35.0 million. As a result of share repurchases during 2025, Hilltop has approximately $67 million of available share repurchase capacity, subject to non-objection with respect to the additional $35.0 million, through the expiration of the 2025 stock repurchase program in January 2026.

The extent of the impact of uncertain economic conditions on our financial performance during the remainder of 2025 will depend in part on developments outside of our control, including, among others, the timing and significance of further changes in U.S. Treasury yields and mortgage interest rates, changes in funding costs, inflationary pressures, changes in the political environment, the impact of tariffs and reciprocal tariffs, and international armed conflicts and their impact on supply chains.

Jeremy B. Ford, Chairman, President and CEO of Hilltop, said, "During the second quarter of 2025, Hilltop delivered a 1% return on average assets and returned $47 million to stockholders through dividends and share repurchases. PlainsCapital Bank's net interest margin expanded by 19 basis points as we continued to proactively manage deposit costs and benefited from a higher repricing of earning assets. HilltopSecurities produced a 5% year-over-year improvement in net revenue and a pre-tax margin of 5.8% in the face of a highly volatile quarter from long-term interest rates. PrimeLending had pre-tax income of $3.2 million on $2.4 billion of mortgage origination volume while operating in a persistently challenging home buying market. Notably, PrimeLending's operating results include a one-time pre-tax benefit of $9.5 million associated with prior legal settlements. As we move into the second half of the year, we will continue to prioritize protecting our balance sheet and executing on our strategic priorities in order to create long-term stockholder value."

Second Quarter 2025 Highlights for Hilltop:

The reversal of credit losses was $7.3 million during the second quarter of 2025, compared to a provision for credit losses of $9.3 million in the first quarter of 2025 and a provision for credit losses of $10.9 million in the second quarter of 2024;
- The reversal of credit losses during the second quarter of 2025 was primarily driven by changes in the U.S. economic outlook associated with collectively evaluated loans, loan portfolio changes and net charge-offs, partially offset by a build in the allowance related to specific reserves, including changes in loan mix and risk rating grade migration, within the banking segment, since the prior quarter.
On May 15, 2025, Hilltop redeemed all of its outstanding 5.75% Subordinated Notes due 2030 at a redemption price equal to the aggregate principal amount of $50 million, plus accrued and unpaid interest using cash on hand.
Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2025 included an aggregate of $6.1 million associated with the net effects of the receipt of $9.5 million by the mortgage origination segment from prior legal settlements and net downward adjustments to the preliminary pre-tax gain of $3.4 million from the sale of operations by the merchant bank equity investment;
- The aggregate preliminary pre-tax gain of $27.1 million ($21.0 million net of tax) associated with the sale of operations by a merchant bank equity investment is subject to change given customary post-closing adjustments, changes in the market value of the stock consideration included in transaction given certain restrictions, and liquidation of the investment vehicle.
For the second quarter of 2025, net gains from sale of loans and other mortgage production income and mortgage loan origination fees was $80.7 million, compared to $92.9 million in the second quarter of 2024, a 13.1% decrease;
- Mortgage loan origination production volume was $2.4 billion during both the second quarter of 2025 and the second quarter of 2024;

Loans held for sale increased by 19.7% from March 31, 2025 to $979.9 million at June 30, 2025;

Hilltop maintained strong capital levels with a Tier 1 Leverage Ratio² of 13.11% and a Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio of 20.74% at June 30, 2025;
Hilltop's consolidated net interest margin³increased to 3.01% for the second quarter of 2025, compared to 2.84% in the first quarter of 2025;
For the second quarter of 2025, noninterest income was $192.6 million, compared to $193.3 million in the second quarter of 2024, a 0.3% decrease;
For the second quarter of 2025, noninterest expense was $261.2 million, compared to $256.5 million in the second quarter of 2024, a 1.8% increase; and

- The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2025 was higher than the applicable statutory rate primarily due to the impact of nondeductible compensation expense, other nondeductible expenses and other permanent adjustments, partially offset by investments in tax-exempt instruments.

________________________________________
(1)	Net interest margin is defined as net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets.
(2)	Net interest margin (taxable equivalent), a non-GAAP measure, is defined as taxable equivalent net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. Taxable equivalent adjustments are based on the applicable 21% federal income tax rate for all periods presented. The interest income earned on certain earning assets is completely or partially exempt from federal income tax. As such, these tax-exempt instruments typically yield lower returns than taxable investments. To provide more meaningful comparisons of net interest margins for all earning assets, we use net interest income on a taxable-equivalent basis in calculating net interest margin by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable investments. The taxable equivalent adjustments to interest income for Hilltop (consolidated) were $0.8 million, $0.6 million, $0.7 million, $0.6 million and $0.6 million, respectively, for the periods presented and for the banking segment were $0.1 million, $0.2 million, $0.2 million, $0.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, for the periods presented.
(3)	Dividend payout ratio is defined as cash dividends declared per common share divided by basic earnings per common share.
(4)	Net revenue is defined as the sum of total broker-dealer net interest income and total broker-dealer noninterest income.
(5)	Pre-tax margin is defined as income before income taxes divided by net revenue.
(6)	Broker fee income is earned by the mortgage origination segment for facilitating mortgage loan transactions between PrimeLending customers and third-party mortgage lenders when the requested loan products are not offered by PrimeLending.
(7)	Reported on a consolidated basis and therefore does not include mortgage servicing rights assets related to loans serviced for the banking segment, which are eliminated in consolidation.
