Exhibit 99.1 1 NewtekOne, Inc. Reports 2Q26 Basic and Diluted EPS of $0.48 and $0.47 Boca Raton, Fla., August 6, 2026 - NewtekOne, Inc. (the "Company") (Nasdaq: NEWT) reports its financial and operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2026. Financial Highlights for the three months ended June 30, 2026: • For the three months ended June 30, 2026 ("2Q26"), basic and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") were $0.48 and $0.47 vs. $0.53 and $0.52, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2025 ("2Q25"). • Book value per common share ended 2Q26 at $12.64, up Y/Y and Q/Q by 13.8% and 2.3%, respectively. • Tangible book value per common share1 ended 2Q26 at $12.13, up Y/Y and Q/Q by 15.0% and 2.4%, respectively. • The efficiency ratio1 was 58.4% for 2Q26 compared to 60.3% for 2Q25. • Return on average assets (“ROAA”)1 was 1.97% for 2Q26 compared to 2.58% for 2Q25. • Return on average equity ("ROAE")1 was 13.3% for 2Q26 compared to 17.4% for 2Q25. • Return on average tangible common equity (“ROTCE”)1 was 15.7% for 2Q26 compared to 19.6% for 2Q25. Selected Balance Sheet and Other Highlights for 2Q26 • Non-affiliate business deposits at Newtek Bank, N.A. (the "Bank") increased $15 million, or 5% Q/Q, and $103 million, or 47% Y/Y, while core consumer deposits grew $297 million, or 21% Q/Q, and $951 million, or 124% Y/Y. • Since the acquisition of the Bank in early 2023, roughly 54% of Newtek Bank's business lending clients have opened a business deposit account. • Insured deposits comprised 81% of deposits as of June 30, 2026.. • Originated $104 million of C&I LA Loans in 2Q26 compared to $78 million in 2Q25. • Originated $208 million of SBA 7(a) loans in 2Q26 compared to $206 million in 2Q25. • Originated $49 million of SBA 504 loans in 2Q26 compared to $26 million in 2Q25. • Originated $41 million and $12 million of CRE and C&I loans HFI in 2Q26 compared to $20 million and $5 million in 1Q25.
Exhibit 99.1 2 Post 2Q26 Events • On July 1, 2026, the Company paid a dividend on the Company’s outstanding Series B Preferred in the amount of $21.25 per Preferred Share, or $0.53125 per depositary share, which is equivalent to 1/40th of the dividend on the Preferred Shares. • On July 1, 2026, the Company paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.19 per share on its outstanding common shares. Commenting on quarterly operating results, Barry Sloane, CEO, President, and Chairman, said, “We are pleased to have reported basic and diluted EPS of $0.48 and $0.47 for 2Q26, which was within our 2Q26 EPS guidance range of $0.42-$0.52. Profitability remains healthy with 2Q26 ROAA, ROAE and ROTCE of 1.97%, 13.3%, and 15.7%, respectively. We continue to capture operating leverage with assets up almost 50% Y/Y and 2Q26 operating expenses up just 3.6% over 2Q25 operating expenses, which supported a Y/Y improvement in the efficiency ratio from 60.3% for 2Q25 to 58.4% for 2Q26. “Since acquiring the Bank in early 2023, we have consistently produced strong balance sheet growth with increasing loan balances the primary driver of asset growth. As of the first quarter of 2026, we are originating all loans at the Bank (as opposed to our non-bank subsidiaries) and funding the new loan originations with deposits. I am particularly proud of the deposit gathering engine we have built here at Newtek Bank. We are able to deliver value to both consumer and business deposit customers by providing deposits accounts with attractive rates of interest and without fees, and, because we operate without branches and traditional commercial bankers, we have delivered solid profitability, operating leverage, and efficiency. Total deposits almost doubled Y/Y with business deposits increasing by almost 50% and the consumer deposit book more than doubling. “Second quarter 2026 loan originations showed contributions from all loan types: C&I LA, SBA 7(a), SBA 504, commercial real estate, and traditional C&I. There are three notable trends I’d like to highlight. First, loans held on Newtek Bank’s balance sheet comprise 86% of the Company’s loans, which is up from 68% one year ago. The shift to the Bank’s balance sheet is a function of C&I LA loans now being originated at the Bank vs. the holding company's non-bank subsidiaries, and loan balances at our legacy non-bank 7(a) lender, Newtek Small Business Finance ("NSBF"), continuing to decline. In fact, the NSBF portfolio represented less than 10% of total loans as of June 30, down from 19% one year earlier. Second, C&I LA loan balances are building on the Bank’s balance sheet. Most of the C&I LA loan growth occurred late in the second quarter, which means the Bank’s interest and net interest income should reflect a full quarter of impact in the third quarter of 2026. And third, as we have discussed in past quarters, we are holding more guaranteed portions of SBA 7(a) loans on our balance sheet than we have in the past, supporting growth in net interest income, which, for 2Q26, climbed 24% Q/Q and 56% Y/Y at the Bank. “Since 1998, NewtekOne has been dedicated to independent business owners in the United States and has strived to provide business and financial solutions to that important cohort with the intention to make our independent business owner clients more successful. We believe we are succeeding at that mission and are one of the top firms serving independent business owners in the U.S. In fact, according to SBA data, since 2020, as one of the more active lenders in the 7(a) loan program, we have supported roughly 280,000 jobs, ranking second of all lenders in the 7(a) program for jobs supported.” Mr. Sloane concluded, "After three and a half years of operating as a bank holding company we are proud of the business model we have created, a technologically enabled bank that from a competitive standpoint is hard to find. Rather than being viewed as simply different, we have found recently that our business model emphasizing our digital account opening, real time payments platform, the Newtek Advantage® business portal, the NewTracker®
Exhibit 99.1 2 referral system, and frictionless lending platform, all for independent business owners, is getting noticed by the banking industry as being a model to envy. However, as we continue to execute our business model, the mix of revenue and business lines at the Bank is evolving. This will involve more net interest income by holding more loans on balance sheet and less revenue from gain on sale of loans, and, as a result, our current guidance going forward is being re-evaluated." Second Quarter 2026 Conference Call and Webcast A conference call to discuss the second quarter 2026 financial and operating results will be hosted by Barry Sloane, Chief Executive Officer, President and Chairman, and Frank M. DeMaria, Chief Financial Officer, today, Thursday, August 6, 2026, at 4:30 p.m. ET. Please note, to attend the conference call or webcast, participants should register online at NewtekOne, Inc.
