Guidance Reliability Pending · <3Q data

Investor Lens

The investment thesis appears stronger after this call. Axos delivered double-digit growth in key metrics and secured two large deposit acquisitions that support future loan growth without aggressive deposit pricing. The stable NIM outlook and improving efficiency from AI adoption are positive. However, credit quality warrants watching: a $14 million charge-off and a $33 million increase in C&I non-performing assets (a syndicated credit) show that the commercial book has some stress. The resolution of that credit over the next few quarters will be a key event. The success of integrating the Jenius and Capital One deposits and maintaining the low-cost deposit base will also be critical. Next quarter, focus on the Jenius conversion completion, the pace of loan growth, and any further credit deterioration in the C&I portfolio.
