ENDED MARCH 31, 2026

SAN JUAN, Puerto

Rico – April

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 $88.8 million, or $0.57

per diluted share, for the

first quarter of 2026, compared to

$87.1 million, or

$0.55 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2025, and

$77.1 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, for the first

quarter of 2025.

Aurelio

Alemán,

President

and

Chief

Executive

Officer

of

First

BanCorp,

commented:

“We

began

the

year

with

another

quarter

of

strong

operating

results,

delivering

consistent

performance

across

our

franchise.

Earnings

per

share

increased 21%

year-over-year,

reflecting strong

revenue generation

and

disciplined

expense

management,

which

translated

into

a

return

on

average

assets of 1.89%—our 17th consecutive quarter

posting a ROAA above 1.5%.

Underlying

revenue

trends

remained

very

strong

during

the

quarter,

with

pre‑tax, pre‑provision

income reaching an

all‑time high of

$131 million, up

2%

from

the

prior

quarter

and

5%

from

a

year

ago.

Core

customer

deposits

continued to grow,

reinforcing the

strength of

our relationship‑driven franchise

while allowing

us to

proactively manage

funding costs.

Loan pipelines

remain

healthy and continue to support our confidence in achieving

our established loan

growth

targets

for

the

full

year. Credit

performance

was

strong,

with

stable

charge‑offs, record‑low

levels of

non‑performing assets,

and very

encouraging

early‑stage delinquency trends, which declined 24% from the

prior quarter.

Supported by a resilient labor market and

stable economic backdrop, we remain

focused on serving

our customers across

a range of

environments while closely

monitoring

key

risks,

including

energy

costs

and

their

potential

impact

on

consumers.

Our

thoughtful

and

consistent

approach

to

capital

deployment

resulted in a net

payout ratio of 92% during the

quarter achieved through share

buybacks

and

dividends.

Our

disciplined

approach

to

capital

allocation,

responsible growth, and ongoing execution of our omnichannel strategy continue

to

position

First

BanCorp

to

deliver

sustainable

long‑term

value

for

all

our

stakeholders.”

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

Profitability

Net income –

$88.8 million, or $0.57

per diluted share compared to

$87.1 million, or $0.55

per diluted share. Net

income for the fourth quarter

of

2025

included

a

reversal

of

$1.1

million

($0.7

million

after-tax)

related

to

the

Federal

Deposit

Insurance

Corporation

(“FDIC”)

special

assessment.

Income before income taxes

–

$114.3 million compared to $107.3 million.

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

(1)

–

$131.4 million compared to $129.2 million.

Net interest income –

$221.0 million compared to $222.8 million. The decrease includes a reduction of $2.7 million

associated with the effect of

two less days

in the first

quarter of 2026,

$2.2 million associated

to the downward

repricing of variable-rate commercial

loans and cash

held at

the

Federal

Reserve

Bank

(“FED”), partially

offset

by

the

continued deployment

of

cash

flows

from lower-yielding

investment securities

to

higher-yielding assets and a decrease in the cost of interest-bearing deposits.

Net interest margin increased to 4.75%, compared to 4.68%.

Provision for credit losses –

$17.3 million compared to $23.0 million.

The provision reflects an improved projection on certain macroeconomic

variables

and

improvements

in

delinquency

in

the

consumer

loan

portfolios,

partially

offset

by

higher

qualitative

reserves

associated

with

geopolitical uncertainty driven by, among other things, higher oil prices as a result of

the conflict in the Middle East.
