MCB — dividend update
Dated 2026-10-19
Other Events On October 19, 2026, the board of directors of Metropolitan Bank Holding Corp. (the “Company”) declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.40 per share on the Company’s common stock (the “Dividend”), an increase of $0.05 from the prior quarterly dividend of $0.35 per share. The Dividend is payable on November 10, 2026 to holders of record of the Company’s common stock at the close of business on October 30, 2026.
Why it matters: Loans grew 2.8% in Q3, while deposits grew 7.6%. If loans grow faster, the bank may need more funding.
Worry ifQ4 loans grow faster than deposits. In Q3, loans were $7.5 billion and deposits were $8.3 billion.
Less concerning ifQ4 deposits grow at least as fast as loans, and total deposits remain at or above $8.3 billion.
Why it matters: CRE loans grew by $859.3 million from a year earlier. A higher share of capital tied to these loans may raise risk.
Worry ifNon-owner CRE loans rise above 315% of total risk-based capital, up from 301.1% in Q3.
Less concerning ifThe ratio stays at or below 301.1%, while total risk-based capital remains at least 13.5%.
Why it matters: A single CRE loan pushed the ratio up to 0.95% in Q3. A larger rise may point to more loan trouble.
Worry ifQ4 non-performing loans exceed 1.20% of total loans, above the Q3 level of 0.95%.
Less concerning ifThe ratio stays at or below 0.95%, with no new large loan placed on non-accrual status.
Why it matters: The board raised the quarterly dividend to $0.40. Keeping it at that level would show continued cash returns to shareholders.
Supportive ifThe board declares a Q4 dividend of at least $0.40 per share.
Worry ifThe board cuts the quarterly dividend below $0.40 per share or does not declare one.
