[1] Includes $14.3 billion pledged to secure government and trust deposits, assets sold under agreements to repurchase, credit facilities and loan servicing
agreements that the secured parties are not permitted to sell or repledge the collateral, of which $13.2 billion serve as collateral for public funds. The
Corporation had unpledged Available for Sale securities with a fair value of $6.3 billion that could be used to increase its borrowing facilities.
The weighted average yield on debt securities available-for-sale is based on amortized cost; therefore, it does not give effect to changes in
fair value.
Debt securities not due on a single contractual maturity date, such as mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations,
are classified based on the period of final contractual maturity. The expected maturities of collateralized mortgage obligations, mortgage-
backed securities and certain other securities may differ from their contractual maturities because they may be subject to prepayments or
may be called by the issuer.
At June 30, 2026, the Corporation did not intend to sell or believe it was more likely than not that it would be required to sell debt securities
classified as available-for-sale. There were no debt securities classified as available-for-sale sold during the six months ended June 30,
2026 and 2025.
The following tables present the Corporation’s fair value and gross unrealized losses of debt securities available-for-sale, aggregated by
investment category and length of time that individual securities have been in a continuous unrealized loss position at June 30, 2026 and
December 31, 2025.

Debt securities available-for-sale in a continuous unrealized loss position for less than twelve months of $17.3 billion as of June 30, 2026,
compared to $1.2 billion on December 31, 2025, are impacted by changes in market rates.
As of June 30, 2026, the portfolio of available-for-sale debt securities reflects gross unrealized losses of $1.0 billion (December 31, 2025 -
$0.9 billion), driven mainly by mortgage-backed securities, which have been impacted by the interest rate environment and the portfolio’s
longer duration. The portfolio of available-for-sale debt securities is comprised mainly of U.S Treasuries and obligations from the U.S.
Government, its agencies or government sponsored entities, including Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”), Federal Home
Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”) and Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”). These securities carry an explicit or
implicit guarantee from the U.S. Government, are highly rated by major rating agencies, and have a long history of no credit losses.
Accordingly, the Corporation applies a zero-credit loss assumption.

[1]Book value includes $293.0 million of unrealized loss which remains in Accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income (AOCI) related to certain securities
transferred from available-for-sale securities portfolio to the held-to-maturity securities portfolio.
[2] Includes $7.3 billion pledged to secure public and trust deposits that the secured parties are not permitted to sell or repledge the collateral. The Corporation
had unpledged held-to-maturities securities with a fair value of $98.8 million that could be used to increase its borrowing facilities.
Debt securities not due on a single contractual maturity date, such as collateralized mortgage obligations, are classified in the period of final
contractual maturity. The expected maturities of collateralized mortgage obligations and certain other securities may differ from their
contractual maturities because they may be subject to prepayments or may be called by the issuer.
Credit Quality Indicators
The following describes the credit quality indicators by major security type that the Corporation considers to develop the estimate of the
allowance for credit losses for investment securities held-to-maturity.
As discussed in Note 2 of the 2025 Form 10-K, U.S. Treasury securities carry an explicit guarantee from the U.S. Government, are highly
rated by major rating agencies and have a long history of no credit losses. Accordingly, the Corporation applies a zero-credit loss
assumption and no allowance for credit losses (“ACL") for these securities has been established.
At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the “Obligations of Puerto Rico, States and political subdivisions" classified as held-to-maturity,
included securities issued by municipalities of Puerto Rico that are generally not rated by a credit rating agency. The Corporation performs
periodic credit quality reviews of these securities and internally assigns standardized credit risk ratings based on its evaluation. For the
definitions of the obligor risk ratings, refer to the Credit Quality section of Note 8 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. This includes
$7.1 million of general and special obligation bonds issued by three municipalities of Puerto Rico, of which $6.3 million have a “Pass" rating,
that are payable primarily from certain property taxes imposed by the issuing municipality (compared to $8.7 million and $7.9 million,
respectively, at December 31, 2025).
At June 30, 2026, the portfolio of “Obligations of Puerto Rico, States and political subdivisions" also included $34.8 million in securities
issued by the Puerto Rico Housing Finance Authority (“HFA"), a government instrumentality, for which the underlying source of payment is
second mortgage loans in Puerto Rico residential properties (not the government), but for which HFA provides a guarantee in the event of
default and upon the satisfaction of certain other conditions (December 31, 2025 - $36.0 million). These securities are not rated by a credit
rating agency. Refer to Note 16 to the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on the Corporation’s exposure to the
Puerto Rico Government.
A deterioration of the Puerto Rico economy or of the fiscal health of the Government of Puerto Rico and/or its instrumentalities (including if
any of the issuing municipalities become subject to a debt restructuring proceeding under the Puerto Rico Oversight Management and
Economic Stability Act (“PROMESA”)) could adversely affect the value of these securities, resulting in losses to the Corporation.
At June 30, 2026, the portfolio of “Obligations of Puerto Rico, States and political subdivisions” had no securities issued by the HFA for
which the underlying source of payment is U.S. Treasury securities (December 31, 2025 - $6.8 million), as all such securities were fully
redeemed during the quarter ended on March 31, 2026. Historically, the Corporation has applied a zero-credit loss assumption for these
securities, and no ACL has been established for these securities given that U.S. Treasury securities carry an explicit guarantee from the
U.S. Government, are highly rated by major rating agencies, and have a long history of no credit losses.
Delinquency status
At June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were no securities held-to-maturity in past due or non-performing status.
Allowance for credit losses on debt securities held-to-maturity
The allowance for credit losses related to the Obligations of Puerto Rico and the States and Political subdivisions securities at June 30,
2026 was $6.2 million (December 31, 2025 - $5.8 million).
