ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following provides a narrative discussion and analysis of Trustmark Corporation’s (Trustmark) financial condition and results of operations. This discussion should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and the supplemental financial data included in Part I. Item 1. – Financial Statements of this report.

Description of Business

Trustmark, a Mississippi business corporation incorporated in 1968, is a bank holding company headquartered in Jackson, Mississippi. Trustmark’s principal subsidiary is Trustmark Bank (TB), a Mississippi-chartered banking corporation. TB is a member bank of the Federal Reserve System and is supervised by the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta (FRBA) and the Mississippi Department of Banking and Consumer Finance (MDBCF). In addition, as a large provider of consumer financial services, TB remains subject to regulation, supervision, enforcement and examination by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). As a Mississippi state-chartered banking corporation, TB must obtain the approval of the MDBCF prior to declaring or paying a dividend on its common stock. Dividends from TB are Trustmark’s principal source of cash. At March 31, 2026, TB had total assets of $18.985 billion, which represented 99.99% of the consolidated assets of Trustmark.

Through TB and its other subsidiaries, Trustmark operates as a financial services organization providing banking and other financial solutions through offices and 2,530 full-time equivalent associates (measured at March 31, 2026) located in the states of Alabama, Florida (primarily in the northwest or “Panhandle” region of that state, which is referred to herein as Trustmark’s Florida market), Georgia (primarily in Atlanta, which is referred to herein as Trustmark's Georgia market), Mississippi, Tennessee (in the Memphis and Northern Mississippi regions, which are collectively referred to herein as Trustmark’s Tennessee market), and Texas (primarily in Houston, which is referred to herein as Trustmark’s Texas market). Trustmark’s operations are managed along two operating segments: General Banking Segment and Wealth Management Segment. For a complete overview of Trustmark’s business, see the section captioned “The Corporation” included in Part I. Item 1. – Business of Trustmark’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (2025 Annual Report).

Executive Overview

Trustmark's financial results for the first three months of 2026 reflected diversified growth in loans held for investment (LHFI), stable credit quality and cost-effective core deposit growth. Trustmark's capital position remained solid, reflecting the consistent profitability of its diversified financial services businesses. Trustmark continued to implement organic growth initiatives and make investments to capitalize on opportunities in its marketplace. With robust capital, liquidity and profitability, Trustmark is well-positioned to continue to compete in changing economic conditions and create long-term value for its shareholders. On April 28, 2026, Trustmark’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per share. The dividend is payable June 15, 2026, to shareholders of record on June 1, 2026. Trustmark’s payment of the dividend will be fully funded by a dividend from TB to Trustmark, which the MDBCF approved on April 28, 2026.

Recent Economic and Industry Developments

Economic activity during the first quarter of 2026 was characterized by a rebound in growth following a weak end to 2025, driven by robust artificial intelligence (AI) related business investments and consumer spending, though this was tempered by a significant geopolitical shock at the end of the quarter. While labor markets remained tight, escalating energy prices and geopolitical volatility, particularly in the Middle East, slowed momentum late in the quarter, forcing the Federal Reserve Board (FRB) to pause rate cuts it might have otherwise approved. Economic concerns remain as a result of the cumulative weight of uncertainty regarding the potential economic impact of geopolitical developments, such as the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, the current United States presidential administration's policies, inflationary and broader pricing pressures, volatility in energy prices and other economic and industry volatility. Concerns surrounding the direction of global markets and the potential impact on the United States economy are expected to persist for the near term. While Trustmark's customer base is wholly domestic, international economic conditions affect domestic economic conditions, and thus may have an impact upon Trustmark's financial condition or results of operations.

Beginning with the September 2025 meeting of the FRB's Federal Open Market Committee, the FRB noted increases in unemployment and inflation shifting the balance of risks to achieving its goals. As a result, the FRB decreased the target federal funds rate and the rate it pays on reserves multiple times during the fourth quarter of 2025, lowering the target federal funds rate to a range of 3.50% to 3.75% and the rate it pays on reserves to 3.65% as of December 2025. The FRB determined to leave the target federal funds rate and the rate it pays on reserves unchanged during the first three months of 2026, noting that while economic activity expanded at a solid pace and there was little change in the unemployment rate, inflationary concerns and implications of developments in the Middle East for the U.S. economy are uncertain. Prior period rate increases increased the competitive pressures on Trustmark's deposit cost of funds. While

53

rate cuts potentially reduced those competitive pressures, they increased pressure on Trustmark's net interest margin, a key component to its financial results. It is not possible to predict the direction, pace or magnitude of further changes, if any, in interest rates, or the impact any such rate changes will have on Trustmark's results of operations.

In the February and April 2026 “Summary of Commentary on Current Economic Conditions by Federal Reserve District,” the twelve Federal Reserve Districts’ (Districts) reports suggested that during the reporting periods (covering the periods from January 6, 2026 through February 23, 2026 and February 24, 2026 through April 6, 2026) overall economic activity increased at a slight to modest pace in eight of the twelve Districts, while the remaining Districts reported economic activity was flat or declining. Reports by the twelve Districts noted the following during the reporting periods:

•
On balance, consumer spending increased slightly despite harsh winter weather in some regions and higher fuel prices. Many Districts continued to report signs of consumer financial strain, increased price sensitivity and rising demand at food banks and other social service organizations, while spending among higher-income consumers was resilient. Auto sales were mostly down for Districts that report on them, with many citing affordability issues.

•
Manufacturing activity rose at a slight to moderate pace. Manufacturing contacts in many Districts reported increases in new orders, and several cited boosts in demand from data centers, and energy infrastructure. Energy activity was up slightly as oil prices rose, though many producers remained cautious about increasing drilling due to uncertainty about the persistence of higher prices. Agricultural and transportation activity were mixed across Districts.

•
Banking sector activity was generally steady with loan demand stable to up moderately, with commercial lending being the primary area of strength. Housing market activity softened across several Districts as heightened uncertainty and rising mortgage rates dampened buyer demand. Commercial real estate markets improved, with strength in industrial properties, especially data center projects. Office markets saw solid demand for Class A space, but weaker demand for lower-tier properties. For most Districts, residential real estate and construction sales and activity decreased slightly, with low inventories and affordability remaining key issues.

•
Business outlooks varied amid widespread uncertainty about future conditions. The conflict in the Middle East was cited as a major source of uncertainty that complicated decision-making around hiring, pricing and capital investment, with many firms adopting a "wait-and-see" posture.

•
Employment levels were generally stable to up slightly and demand for labor was generally stable, with low turnover, minimal layoffs and hiring mostly for replacement. Several Districts noted increased demand for temporary or contract workers, as firms remained cautious about committing to permanent hires. Labor availability improved, although difficulty finding some skilled workers, especially in the skilled trades, persisted. While most Districts indicated that AI had not yet significantly impacted overall staffing levels, some noted that AI-driven productivity improvements had enable firms in certain segments to delay or reduce hiring. Wages generally continued to rise at a modest to moderate pace. Some Districts noted continued wage pressures for some roles in health care and the skilled trades, though overall wage competition remained muted.

•
Price growth remained mostly moderate overall. Generally, input cost increases outpaced selling price growth, compressing margins. Energy and fuel prices rose sharply in all Districts, attributable to the Middle East conflict, leading to higher freight and shipping costs and higher prices for plastics, fertilizers and other petroleum-based products. Input cost pressures beyond energy-related increases were also widespread. Several Districts reported rising prices for metals due to tariffs, such as steel, copper and aluminum. Technology costs rose for both hardware and software. Insurance premiums and health care costs also continued to climb.

Reports by the Federal Reserve’s Sixth District, Atlanta (which includes Trustmark’s Alabama, Florida, Georgia and Mississippi market regions), Eighth District, St. Louis (which includes Trustmark’s Tennessee market region), and Eleventh District, Dallas (which includes Trustmark’s Texas market region), noted similar findings for the reporting period as those discussed above. The Federal Reserve's Sixth District reported overall loan growth was moderate, most types of lending expanded with the exception of credit card lending, auto lending posted the largest percentage increase as higher vehicle prices prompted consumers to seek extended loan terms and commercial lending declined driven by a pullback in small business lending amid tighter lending standards, increased concerns over credit quality and new U.S. citizenship requirements for Small Business Administration (SBA) loans. The Federal Reserve’s Eighth District noted that banking activity remained unchanged, with some banking contacts reporting signs of improvement in the commercial loan pipeline largely fueled by opportunities in commercial real estate and ongoing business transactions, stable credit quality overall, though some early-stage weaknesses had emerged, particularly for small business borrowers whose risk is closely tied to input costs and fuel prices, and an uptick in overdraft frequency signaling that many households are facing tighter budgets and reduced discretionary spending. The Federal Reserve’s Eleventh District reported that loan volume and loan demand increased in March 2026, driven by commercial real estate loans, credit standards and terms tightened slightly, loan pricing continued to decline and loan performance ticked down. The Federal Reserve’s Eleventh District also noted that bankers reported general business activity declined and outlooks were less optimistic,

Executive Overview

Trustmark has been committed to meeting the banking and financial needs of its customers and communities for over 130 years and remains focused on providing support, advice and solutions to its customers' unique needs. Trustmark achieved record earnings in 2025, reflecting significant achievement across its diverse financial services businesses. During 2025, Trustmark's traditional banking business drove continued loan and deposit growth, a strong net interest margin and solid credit quality. Trustmark's mortgage banking business increased production and achieved significant improvement in profitability during 2025, while revenue from its wealth management business reached an all-time high.

These accomplishments are the result of focused efforts to enhance Trustmark's long-term performance and competitiveness. Trustmark continues to implement technology and streamline processes to enhance its ability to grow and serve customers. Trustmark is well-positioned to compete in changing economic conditions and create long-term value for its shareholders. The Board of Directors of Trustmark announced a 4.2% increase in its regular quarterly cash dividend to $0.25 per share from $0.24 per share, reflecting Trustmark's profitability and financial strength. The dividend is payable March 15, 2026, to shareholders of record on March 1, 2026. Trustmark’s payment of the dividend will be funded fully by a dividend from TB to Trustmark, which the MDBCF approved on January 28, 2026.

Financial Highlights

Quarter Ended December 31, 2025

Trustmark reported net income of $57.9 million, or basic and diluted EPS of $0.97, for the fourth quarter of 2025, compared to net income of $56.3 million, or basic and diluted EPS of $0.92, for the fourth quarter of 2024. Trustmark’s reported performance during the quarter ended December 31, 2025, produced a return on average tangible equity of 12.82%, a return on average assets of 1.23%, an average equity to average assets ratio of 11.35% and a dividend payout ratio of 24.74%, compared to a return on average tangible equity

32

of 13.68%, a return on average assets of 1.23%, an average equity to average assets ratio of 10.82% and a dividend payout ratio of 25.00% during the quarter ended December 31, 2024.

The increase in net income when the fourth quarter of 2025 is compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 was principally due to an increase in revenue and a decrease in the PCL, LHFI, partially offset by increases in noninterest expense and income taxes. Revenue totaled $204.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 compared to $196.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $7.3 million, or 3.7%. The increase in revenue for the fourth quarter of 2025 compared to the same time period in 2024 primarily resulted from an increase in net interest income, principally due to a decline in interest expense on deposits.

Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2025 totaled $162.9 million, an increase of $7.0 million, or 4.5%, when compared to the fourth quarter of 2024. Interest income totaled $239.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, a decrease of $417 thousand, or 0.2%, when compared to the same time period in 2024, principally due to a decline in other interest income primarily due to a decline in the average balance held at the FRBA and the FRB's decision to lower the rate it pays on reserves, partially offset by a slight increase in interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI. Interest expense totaled $76.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, a decrease of $7.5 million, or 8.9%, when compared to the same time period in 2024, primarily due to a decline in interest on deposits. Interest expense on deposits totaled $67.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, a decline of $8.2 million, or 10.9%, when compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 primarily due to declines in interest expense on brokered and personal certificates of deposit (CDs), all categories of money market demand deposit accounts (MMDA) and commercial interest checking accounts, primarily reflecting a decline in interest rates.

Noninterest income (loss) for the fourth quarter of 2025 totaled $41.2 million, an increase of $285 thousand, or 0.7%, when compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, principally due to an increase in wealth management largely offset by a decline in other, net. Wealth management totaled $11.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, an increase of $1.8 million, or 19.5%, when compared to the same time period in 2024, principally due to an increase in income from brokerage and trust management services. Other, net totaled $2.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, a decrease of $1.6 million, or 36.1%, when compared to the same time period in 2024, principally due to a decrease in income from other partnership investments and an increase in amortization of tax credit partnerships.

Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2025 totaled $132.2 million, an increase of $7.7 million, or 6.2%, when compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, principally due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits. Salaries and employee benefits totaled $75.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2025, an increase of $5.9 million, or 8.5%, when compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 primarily due to increases in salaries expense, principally due to general merit increases and new associates added during 2025, annual management performance incentive compensation expense and broker commissions expense.

Trustmark’s PCL, LHFI for the three months ended December 31, 2025 totaled a negative $550 thousand compared to $7.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024, a decrease of $7.5 million, primarily due to positive credit migration partially offset by loan growth and changes in the macroeconomic forecast. The PCL, off-balance sheet credit exposures totaled $1.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025 compared to $502 thousand for the three months ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $1.3 million, primarily due to increases in the total reserve rate and unfunded commitments partially offset by positive credit migration. Please see the section captioned “Provision for Credit Losses,” for additional information regarding the PCL on LHFI and off-balance sheet credit exposures.

Year Ended December 31, 2025

For the year ended December 31, 2025, Trustmark reported net income of $224.1 million, or basic and diluted EPS of $3.72 and $3.70, respectively, compared to $223.0 million, or basic and diluted EPS of $3.65 and $3.63, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2024 and $165.5 million, or basic and diluted EPS of $2.71 and $2.70, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Trustmark completed the sale of FBBI during the second quarter of 2024. As such, financial results for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, consist of both continuing and discontinued operations. The discontinued operations include the financial results of FBBI prior to the sale as well as the net gain on the sale. Trustmark reported net income from continuing operations of $45.2 million and $153.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Trustmark's reported performance from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 produced a return on average tangible equity of 3.04%, a return on average assets of 0.24% and a dividend payout ratio of 124.32%, compared to a return on average tangible equity of 12.43%, a return on average assets of 0.82% and a dividend payout ratio of 36.65% for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in net income from continuing

33

operations when 2025 is compared to 2024 was principally due to an increase in revenue and a decline in PCL, LHFI, partially offset by increases in income taxes and noninterest expense.

Revenue totaled $799.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to $561.0 million and $701.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively, an increase of $238.8 million, or 42.6%, and a decrease of $140.3 million, or 20.0%, respectively. The increase in revenue for 2025 compared to 2024 was principally due to (i) an increase in noninterest income (loss), primarily as a result of the loss on the sale of available for sale securities during the second quarter of 2024 and increases in mortgage banking, net and wealth management, partially offset by a decrease in other, net, and (ii) an increase in net interest income, primarily resulting from a decline in total interest expense and an increase in interest on securities, partially offset by declines in interest and fees from LHFS and LHFI and other interest income.

Net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2025 totaled $636.1 million, an increase of $51.7 million, or 8.8%, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2024. Interest income totaled $948.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, a decrease of $11.7 million, or 1.2%, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, reflecting declines in interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI, primarily due to a decrease in interest rates, and other interest income, primarily due to a decline in the average balance held at the FRBA and the FRB's decision to lower the rate it pays on reserves, partially offset by an increase in interest on securities, primarily as a result of higher yielding securities purchased during 2025 and the restructuring of the available for sale securities portfolio during the second quarter of 2024. Interest expense totaled $312.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, a decrease of $63.4 million, or 16.9%, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, reflecting declines in all categories of interest expense. Interest on deposits totaled $274.7 million for 2025, a decrease of $54.7 million, or 16.6%, when compared to 2024, primarily reflecting declines in interest on brokered and personal CDs, personal and commercial MMDA and public and commercial interest checking accounts, principally due to declines in interest rates. Other interest expense for 2025 totaled $20.3 million, a decrease of $6.1 million, or 23.0%, when compared to 2024, primarily due to a decline in interest expense on FHLB advances, principally due to a decline in rates on short-term FHLB advances, partially offset by an increase in subordinated debt issuance cost as a result of the $175.0 million of subordinated notes issued during the fourth quarter of 2025. Interest on federal funds purchased and securities purchased under repurchase agreements totaled $17.5 million for 2025, a decrease of $2.6 million, or 13.0%, when compared to 2024, primarily reflecting declines in the target federal funds rate by the FRB.

Noninterest income (loss) for 2025 totaled $163.6 million, an increase of $187.1 million when compared to 2024, principally due to the $182.8 million loss on the sale of available for sale securities during the second quarter of 2024, and increases in mortgage banking, net and wealth management, partially offset by a decrease in other, net. Mortgage banking, net totaled $33.1 million for 2025, an increase of $6.5 million, or 24.2%, when compared to 2024, primarily reflecting a decrease in the net negative hedge ineffectiveness and increases in the gain on sales of loans, net and mortgage servicing income, net, partially offset by an increase in the run-off of the MSR. Wealth management totaled $40.1 million for 2025, an increase of $2.9 million, or 7.7%, when compared to 2024, primarily due to increases in income from brokerage and trust management services. Other, net totaled $13.4 million for 2025, a decrease of $4.4 million, or 24.7%, when compared to 2024, principally due to the $8.1 million Visa C shares fair value adjustment during the second quarter of 2024 as well as an increase in amortization of tax credit partnerships, partially offset by the $4.8 million noncredit-related loss on the sale of 1-4 family mortgage loans recorded during the second quarter of 2024.

Noninterest expense totaled $512.2 million for 2025, an increase of $26.5 million, or 5.5%, when compared to 2024, principally due to increases in salaries and employee benefits and services and fees. Salaries and employee benefits totaled $283.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, an increase of $17.1 million, or 6.4%, when compared to the year ended December 31, 2024, principally due to increases in salaries expense, primarily due to general merit increases and new associates added during 2025, annual management performance incentives, medical insurance expense, commission expense due to the increase in mortgage originations and other salaries expense. Services and fees totaled $109.4 million for 2025, an increase of $7.8 million, or 7.7%, when compared to 2024, principally due to increases in data processing charges related to software, business process outsourcing fees, advertising expense and legal expense.

The PCL, LHFI for 2025 totaled $14.3 million compared to a total PCL, LHFI of $45.9 million for 2024. The PCL, LHFI for 2024 included an $8.6 million PCL, LHFI sale of 1-4 family mortgage loans for the credit-related portion of the loss on the sale of the 1-4 family mortgage loans. The PCL, LHFI, excluding the PCL, LHFI sale of 1-4 family mortgage loans, for 2024 totaled $37.3 million. The PCL, LHFI, excluding the PCL, LHFI sale of 1-4 family mortgage loans, decreased $23.0 million, or 61.6%, when 2025 is compared to 2024, primarily due to positive credit migration, the resolution of the External Factor – Credit Quality Review qualitative reserve factor and changes to specific reserves associated with individually analyzed credits, partially offset by increases in required reserves related to loan growth, changes in macroeconomic forecasts and updates to other qualitative reserve factors. The PCL, off-balance sheet credit exposures totaled a negative $1.4 million for 2025 compared to a negative $4.7 million for 2024, a decrease in the negative provision of $3.2 million, or 69.1%, primarily due to increases in the total reserve rate and unfunded commitments, partially offset by positive credit migration and the resolution of the External Factor – Credit Quality Review qualitative reserve factor. Please see the section captioned “Provision for Credit Losses” for additional information regarding the PCL on LHFI and off-balance sheet credit exposures.

34

LHFI totaled $13.674 billion at December 31, 2025, an increase of $584.3 million, or 4.5%, compared to December 31, 2024. The increase in LHFI during 2025 was primarily due to net growth in other commercial loans and leases, commercial and industrial LHFI, LHFI secured by real estate and state and other political subdivision LHFI. For additional information regarding changes in LHFI and comparative balances by loan category, see the section captioned “LHFI.”

At December 31, 2025, nonperforming assets totaled $91.3 million, an increase of $5.3 million, or 6.2%, compared to December 31, 2024, reflecting increases in both nonaccrual LHFI and other real estate. Total nonaccrual LHFI were $84.4 million at December 31, 2025, an increase of $4.3 million, or 5.3%, relative to December 31, 2024, primarily as a result of mortgage loans placed on nonaccrual in the Mississippi market region, largely offset by the resolution of three large nonaccrual commercial credits in the Alabama and Texas market regions which were reserved for in a prior period. Trustmark's mortgage loans are primarily included in the Mississippi market region because these loans are centrally analyzed and approved as part of the mortgage line of business, which is located in Jackson, Mississippi. The percentage of total loans (LHFS and LHFI) that are 30 days or more past due or classified as nonaccrual increased in 2025 to 1.85% compared to 1.62% in 2024. Other real estate totaled $7.0 million at December 31, 2025, an increase of $1.0 million, or 17.6%, when compared to December 31, 2024, primarily reflecting property foreclosed in the Mississippi and Alabama market regions, largely offset by foreclosed properties sold in the Mississippi, Texas and Alabama market regions.

Management has continued its practice of maintaining excess funding capacity to provide Trustmark with adequate liquidity for its ongoing operations. In this regard, Trustmark benefits from its strong deposit base, its investment portfolio and its access to funding from a variety of external funding sources such as upstream federal funds lines, FHLB advances and brokered deposits. See the section captioned “Capital Resources and Liquidity” for further discussion of the components of Trustmark’s excess funding capacity.

Total deposits were $15.500 billion at December 31, 2025, an increase of $391.6 million, or 2.6%, compared to December 31, 2024. During 2025, noninterest-bearing deposits decreased $37.1 million, or 1.2%, primarily due to a decline in public demand deposit accounts partially offset by increases in commercial and personal demand deposit accounts. Interest-bearing deposits increased $428.7 million, or 3.6%, during 2025, primarily due to growth in all categories of CDs and MMDA as well as commercial interest checking accounts, partially offset by declines in public and consumer interest checking accounts.

Federal funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements totaled $445.0 million at December 31, 2025 compared to $324.0 million at December 31, 2024, an increase of $121.0 million, or 37.3%, principally due to an increase in upstream federal funds purchased. Trustmark had $445.0 million of upstream federal funds purchased at December 31, 2025, compared to $285.0 million at December 31, 2024. Other borrowings totaled $364.8 million at December 31, 2025, an increase of $63.2 million, or 21.0%, when compared with $301.5 million at December 31, 2024, principally due to increases in Government National Mortgage Association (GNMA) loans eligible for repurchase and outstanding short-term FHLB advances obtained from the FHLB of Dallas.

Subordinated notes totaled $172.0 million at December 31, 2025, compared to $123.7 million at December 31, 2024, an increase of $48.3 million, or 39.0%, as a result of the issuance of $175.0 million of new subordinated notes and the pay-off of $125.0 million of outstanding subordinated notes. During the fourth quarter of 2025, Trustmark issued and sold $175.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.00% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes (the 2025 Notes) due December 1, 2035. The 2025 Notes were sold at an underwriting discount of 1.1%, resulting in net proceeds to Trustmark of $173.1 million before deducting offering expenses. Trustmark used the net proceeds from the offering, after the payment of offering expenses, to repay the outstanding $125.0 million of aggregate principal amount of the subordinated notes issued in 2020 plus accrued interest and for general corporate purposes. See the section captioned "Subordinated Notes" for additional information regarding Trustmark's subordinated debt.

Critical Accounting Policies and Accounting Estimates

Trustmark’s consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP and follow general practices within the financial services industry. Application of these accounting principles requires Management to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions and judgments are based on historical experience, current information and other factors deemed relevant as of the date of the consolidated financial statements; accordingly, as this information changes, actual financial results could differ from those estimates.

Certain policies inherently have a greater reliance on the use of estimates, assumptions and judgments and, as such, have a greater possibility of producing results that could be materially different than originally reported. An accounting estimate is considered critical if the accounting estimate requires Management to make assumptions about matters with a significant level of uncertainty and if the accounting estimate, or changes to the accounting estimate that are reasonably likely to occur from period to period, have had or are reasonable likely to have a material impact to the consolidated financial statements.

For additional information regarding the accounting policies discussed below, please see Note 1 – Significant Accounting Policies set forth in Part II. Item 8. – Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of this report.

ACL on LHFI and Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures

LHFI

The ACL, LHFI is a valuation account, calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 326, that is deducted from the loans’ amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loans. The ACL, LHFI represents Management’s best estimate of current expected credit losses on Trustmark’s existing LHFI portfolio considering available information, from internal and external sources, relevant to assessing exposure to credit loss over the contractual term of the instrument. The ACL, LHFI is adjusted through the PCL, LHFI and reduced by the charge off of loan amounts, net of recoveries.

The credit loss estimation process involves procedures to appropriately consider the unique characteristics of Trustmark’s LHFI portfolio segments. These segments are further disaggregated into loan classes, the level at which credit risk is estimated. When computing allowance levels, credit loss assumptions are estimated using a model that categorizes loan pools based on loss history, delinquency status and other credit trends and risk characteristics, including current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts about the future. Trustmark’s overall ACL methodology incorporates various qualitative factors, including economic conditions and concentrations of credit, nature and volume of the portfolio, performance trends and external factors. The economic conditions and concentrations of credit qualitative factor was created for the loans secured by NFNR properties and the loans secured by other real estate loan class, two of Trustmark’s largest loan classes, to address changes in the economic conditions of metropolitan areas and apply additional pool level reserves based on third-party market data and forecast trends. The performance trend qualitative reserve factor is utilized to incorporate changes in credit quality and is based on migration analyses that allocate additional ACL to non-pass/delinquent loans within each loan pool. The nature and volume of the portfolio qualitative factor applies to a sub-pool of the LHFI secured by 1-4 family residential properties and utilizes a weighted average remaining maturity (WARM) methodology that uses industry data for the PD and LGD assumptions to support the qualitative adjustment. During the first quarter of 2025, Management elected to utilize Trustmark's historical data to develop a PD based on the credit score ranges initially established as well as the same LGD value from the mortgage sale that occurred in the second quarter of 2024 along with the same weighted average life assumption utilized to determine the credit mark on this portfolio. The external factors qualitative factor is Management’s best judgment on the loan or pool level impact of all factors that affect the portfolio that are not accounted for using any other part of the ACL methodology. During the third quarter of 2024, Trustmark activated the External Factor – Credit Quality Review qualitative factor. This qualitative factor ensures reserve adequacy for collectively evaluated commercial loans that may not have been identified and downgraded timely for various reasons. This qualitative factor population is all commercial loans risk rated 1-5. These loans are then applied to the historical average of the Watch/Special Mention rated percentage. Then the balance of these loans are applied additional reserves based on the same reserve rates utilized in the performance trends qualitative factor for Watch/Special Mention rated loans. During the third quarter of 2025, Management determined that the risk related to delayed identification and downgrading of commercial loans had sufficiently diminished and, as a result, resolved the External Factor – Credit Quality Review qualitative factor and released the associated reserves.

Evaluations of the portfolio and individual credits are inherently subjective, as they require estimates, assumptions and judgments as to the facts and circumstances of particular situations. Determining the appropriateness of the ACL, LHFI is complex and requires judgment by Management about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. While Management utilizes its best judgment and information available, the ultimate adequacy of Trustmark’s ACL, LHFI is dependent upon a variety of factors beyond its controls, including the performance of the portfolios, the economy, changes in interest rates and the view of regulatory authorities toward classification of assets. In future periods, evaluations of the overall LHFI portfolio, in light of the factors and forecasts then prevailing, may result in significant changes in the ACL and PCL for LHFI. Given the nature of many of the factors, forecasts and assumptions in the ACL methodology for LHFI, it is not possible to provide meaningful estimates of the impact of any such potential change.

For a complete description of Trustmark’s ACL methodology for the LHFI portfolio, please see Note 4 – LHFI and ACL, LHFI included in Part II. Item 8. – Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of this report.

Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures

Trustmark maintains a separate ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures, including unfunded loan commitments and letters of credit, which are not unconditionally cancellable. The ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures is a liability account calculated in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 326 and presented in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. Adjustments to the ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures are recorded to PCL, off-balance sheet credit exposures.

Expected credit losses for off-balance sheet credit exposures are estimated by calculating a commitment usage factor over the contractual period for exposures that are not unconditionally cancellable by Trustmark. Trustmark calculates a loan pool level unfunded amount for the period. In addition to the unfunded balances, Trustmark uses a funding rate for loan pools that are considered open-ended. In order to mitigate volatility and incorporate historical experience in the funding rate, Trustmark uses a twelve-quarter moving average. For the closed-ended loan pools, Trustmark takes a conservative approach and uses a 100% funding rate. The expected funding rate is applied to each pool’s unfunded commitment balances to ensure that reserves will be applied to each pool based upon balances expected

36

to be funded based upon historical levels. In addition to the funding rate being applied to the unfunded commitment balance, a reserve rate is applied that is loan pool specific and is applied to the unfunded amount, which includes both quantitative and a majority of the qualitative aspects of the current period's expected credit loss rate. During 2024, Management implemented a performance trends qualitative factor for unfunded commitments and an External Factor – Credit Quality Review qualitative factor for unfunded commitments. For both qualitative factors, the same assumptions are applied in the unfunded commitment calculation that are used in the funded balance calculation with the only difference being the unfunded commitment calculation includes the funding rates for the unfunded commitments. The reserves for these two qualitative factors are added to the other calculated reserve to get a total reserve for off-balance sheet credit exposures. During the third quarter of 2025, Management determined that the risk related to delayed identification and downgrading of commercial loans had sufficiently diminished and, as a result, resolved the External Factor – Credit Quality Review qualitative factor and released the associated reserves.

Evaluations of the unfunded commitments are inherently subjective, as they require estimates, assumptions and judgments as to the facts and circumstances of particular situations. Determining the appropriateness of the ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures is complex and requires judgment by Management about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. While Management utilizes its best judgment and information available, the ultimate adequacy of Trustmark’s ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures is dependent upon a variety of factors beyond its control, including the performance of the portfolios, the economy, changes in interest rates and the view of regulatory authorities toward classification of assets. In future periods, evaluations of off-balance sheet credit exposures, in light of the factors and forecasts then prevailing, may result in significant changes in the ACL and PCL on off-balance sheet credit exposures. Given the nature of many of the factors, forecasts and assumptions in the ACL methodology for off-balance sheet credit exposures, it is not possible to provide meaningful estimates of the impact of any such potential change.

For a complete description of Trustmark’s ACL methodology for off-balance sheet credit exposures, please see the section captioned “ACL on Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposures” in Note 16 – Commitments and Contingencies included in Part II. Item 8. – Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of this report.

MSR

Trustmark recognizes as assets the rights to service mortgage loans based on the estimated fair value of the MSR when loans are sold and the associated servicing rights are retained. Trustmark has elected to account for the MSR at fair value.

The fair value of the MSR is determined using a valuation model administered by a third party that calculates the present value of estimated future net servicing income. The model incorporates assumptions that market participants use in estimating future net servicing income, including estimates of prepayment speeds, discount rate, escrow account earnings and contractual servicing fee income and costs. Management reviews all significant assumptions at least quarterly. Mortgage loan prepayment speeds, a key assumption in the model, is the annual rate at which borrowers are forecasted to repay their mortgage loan principal. The discount rate used to determine the present value of estimated future net servicing income, another key assumption in the model, is an estimate of the required rate of return investors in the market would require for an asset with similar risk. Both assumptions can, and generally will, change as market conditions and interest rates change.

By way of example, an increase in either the prepayment speed or discount rate assumption may result in a decrease in the fair value of the MSR, while a decrease in either assumption may result in an increase in the fair value of the MSR. In recent years, there have been significant market-driven fluctuations in loan prepayment speeds and discount rates. These fluctuations can be rapid and may continue to be significant. Therefore, estimating prepayment speeds and/or discount rates within ranges that market participants would use in determining the fair value of the MSR requires significant management judgment.

At December 31, 2025, the MSR fair value was $131.3 million. The impact on the MSR fair value of either a 10% adverse change in prepayment speeds or a 100 basis point increase in discount rates at December 31, 2025, would be a decline in fair value of approximately $5.1 million and $5.2 million, respectively. Changes of equal magnitude in the opposite direction would produce similar increases in fair value in the respective amounts. See the section captioned “MSR” in Note 6 – Mortgage Banking included in Part II. Item 8. – Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of this report for additional information regarding the valuation of the MSR.

Recent Legislative and Regulatory Developments

For information regarding legislation and regulation applicable to Trustmark, see the section captioned “Supervision and Regulation” included in Part I. Item 1. – Business of this report.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to capital ratios defined by GAAP and banking regulators, Trustmark utilizes various tangible common equity measures when evaluating capital utilization and adequacy. Tangible common equity, as defined by Trustmark, represents common equity less goodwill and identifiable intangible assets. Trustmark’s Common Equity Tier 1 capital includes common stock, capital surplus and retained earnings, and is reduced by goodwill and other intangible assets, net of associated net deferred tax liabilities as well as disallowed deferred tax assets and threshold deductions as applicable.

Trustmark believes these measures are important because they reflect the level of capital available to withstand unexpected market conditions. Additionally, presentation of these measures allows readers to compare certain aspects of Trustmark’s capitalization to other organizations. These ratios differ from capital measures defined by banking regulators principally in that the numerator excludes shareholders’ equity associated with preferred securities, the nature and extent of which varies across organizations. In Management’s experience, many stock analysts use tangible common equity measures in conjunction with more traditional bank capital ratios to compare capital adequacy of banking organizations with significant amounts of goodwill or other intangible assets, typically stemming from the use of the purchase accounting method in accounting for mergers and acquisitions.

These calculations are intended to complement the capital ratios defined by GAAP and banking regulators. Because GAAP does not include these capital ratio measures, Trustmark believes there are no comparable GAAP financial measures to these tangible common equity ratios. Despite the importance of these measures to Trustmark, there are no standardized definitions for them and, as a result, Trustmark’s calculations may not be comparable with other organizations. Also, there may be limits in the usefulness of these measures to investors. As a result, Trustmark encourages readers to consider its audited consolidated financial statements and the notes related thereto in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

38

The following table reconciles Trustmark’s calculation of these measures to amounts reported under GAAP for the periods presented ($ in thousands, except per share data):

(1)
Calculated using net income from continuing operations adjusted for intangible amortization divided by total average tangible equity.

(2)
Includes other intangible assets, net of DTLs, disallowed deferred tax assets and threshold deductions, as applicable.

Significant Non-routine Transactions

Trustmark discloses certain non-GAAP financial measures, including net income adjusted for significant non-routine transactions, because Management uses these measures for business planning purposes, including to manage Trustmark’s business against internal projected results of operations and to measure Trustmark’s performance. Trustmark views net income adjusted for significant non-routine transactions as a measure of its core operating business, which excludes the impact of the items detailed below, as these items are generally not operational in nature. This non-GAAP measure also provides another basis for comparing period-to-period results as presented in the accompanying selected financial data table and the audited consolidated financial statements by excluding potential differences caused by non-operational and unusual or non-recurring items. Readers are cautioned that these adjustments are not permitted under GAAP. Trustmark encourages readers to consider its audited consolidated financial statements and the notes related

39

thereto, included in Part II. Item 8. – Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of this report, in their entirety, and not to rely on any single financial measure.

The following table presents adjustments to net income (loss) from continuing operations and select financial ratios as reported in accordance with GAAP resulting from significant non-routine items occurring during the periods presented ($ in thousands, except per share data):

n/a - Not applicable.

Sale of 1-4 Family Mortgage Loans

During the second quarter of 2024, Trustmark sold a portfolio of 1-4 family mortgage loans that were at least three payments delinquent and/or nonaccrual at the time of selection totaling $56.2 million, which resulted in a loss of $13.4 million ($10.1 million, net of taxes). The portion of the loss related to credit totaled $8.6 million ($6.5 million, net of taxes) and was recorded as adjustments to charge-offs and the PCL, LHFI. The noncredit-related portion of the loss totaled $4.8 million ($3.6 million, net of taxes) and was recorded to noninterest income (loss) in other, net.

Visa Shares Conversion

On April 8, 2024, Visa commenced an initial exchange offer expiring on May 3, 2024, for any and all outstanding shares of Visa Class B-1 common stock (Visa B-1 shares). Holders participating in the exchange offer would receive a combination of Visa Class B-2 common stock (Visa B-2 shares) and Visa Class C common stock (Visa C shares) in exchange for Visa B-1 shares that were validly tendered and accepted for exchange by Visa. TB tendered its 38.7 thousand Visa B-1 shares, which were accepted by Visa. In exchange for each Visa B-1 share that was validly tendered and accepted for exchange by Visa, TB received 50.0% of a newly issued Visa B-2 share and newly issued Visa C shares equivalent in value to 50.0% of a Visa B-1 share. The Visa C shares that were received by TB were recognized at fair value, which resulted in a gain of $8.1 million ($6.0 million, net of taxes) and was recorded to noninterest income (loss) in other, net during the second quarter of 2024. During the third quarter of 2024, TB sold all of the Visa C shares for approximately the same carrying value as of June 30, 2024. The Visa B-2 shares were recorded at their nominal carrying value.

Securities Portfolio Restructuring

During the second quarter of 2024, Trustmark restructured its investment securities portfolio by selling $1.561 billion of available for sale securities with an average yield of 1.36%, which generated a loss of $182.8 million ($137.1 million, net of taxes) and was recorded to noninterest income (loss) in securities gains (losses), net. Trustmark also purchased $1.378 billion of available for sale securities with an average yield of 4.85%.

40

Reduction in Force Expense

During the fourth quarter 2023, Trustmark incurred reduction in force expenses of $1.4 million related to various restructuring initiatives.

Litigation Settlement Expense

On October 9, 2023, Trustmark entered into a settlement agreement that resolved all current and potential future claims relating to litigation involving Adams/Madison Timber. As a result of this settlement, Trustmark recognized a one-time charge of $6.5 million of litigation settlement expense during the third quarter of 2023.

On January 13, 2023, TB entered into a settlement agreement relating to the litigation involving the Stanford Financial Group. As a result of this settlement, Trustmark recognized a one-time charge of $100.0 million of litigation settlement expense as well as an additional $750 thousand of legal fees during the fourth quarter of 2022.

Results of Operations

Net Interest Income

Net interest income is the principal component of Trustmark’s income stream and represents the difference, or spread, between interest and fee income generated from earning assets and the interest expense paid on deposits and borrowed funds. Fluctuations in interest rates, as well as volume and mix changes in earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, can materially impact net interest income. The net interest margin is computed by dividing fully taxable equivalent (FTE) net interest income by average interest-earning assets and measures how effectively Trustmark utilizes its interest-earning assets in relationship to the interest cost of funding them. The accompanying Yield/Rate Analysis Table shows the average balances for all assets and liabilities of Trustmark and the interest income or expense associated with earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. The yields and rates have been computed based upon interest income and expense adjusted to a FTE basis using the federal statutory corporate tax rate in effect for each of the periods shown. Loans on nonaccrual have been included in the average loan balances, and interest collected prior to these loans having been placed on nonaccrual has been included in interest income. Loan fees included in interest associated with the average LHFS and LHFI balances are immaterial.

Net interest income-FTE for the year ended December 31, 2025 increased $50.2 million, or 8.4%, when compared with the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase in net interest income-FTE when 2025 is compared to 2024 was attributable to declines in all categories of interest expense, with the exception of interest on subordinated notes, and an increase in interest on securities available for sale-taxable partially offset by declines in interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI-FTE and other interest income. The net interest margin-FTE for 2025 increased 29 basis points to 3.80% when compared to 2024. The increase in the net interest margin-FTE for 2025 was principally due to declines in the costs of interest-bearing deposits and other short-term borrowings as well as an increase in the yield on securities available for sale, partially offset by declines in yields on LHFS and LHFI and other earning assets.

Average interest-earning assets for 2025 were $17.037 billion compared to $17.010 billion for 2024, an increase of $26.2 million, or 0.2%, reflecting growth in average loans (LHFS and LHFI) partially offset by declines in average securities and average other earning assets. Average loans (LHFS and LHFI) increased $324.9 million, or 2.4%, when 2025 is compared to 2024, primarily attributable to an increase in the average balance of the LHFI portfolio of $302.9 million, or 2.3%. The increase in the average LHFI portfolio when the balances at December 31, 2025 are compared to December 31, 2024 was principally due to net growth in average LHFI secured by real estate and average other commercial loans and leases. See the sections captioned "LHFS" and "LHFI" for additional information regarding changes in the LHFS and LHFI portfolios. Average total securities declined $135.1 million, or 4.3%, when 2025 is compared to 2024, principally due to calls, maturities and pay-downs of the loans underlying GSE guaranteed securities partially offset by purchases of available for sale securities. Average other earning assets decreased $163.6 million, or 29.8%, when 2025 is compared to 2024, primarily due to a decrease in the average balance held at the FRBA.

Interest income-FTE totaled $959.7 million for 2025, a decrease of $13.2 million, or 1.4%, while the yield on total earning assets decreased 9 basis points to 5.63% when compared to 2024. The decrease in interest income-FTE in 2025 primarily reflected declines in interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI-FTE and other interest income, partially offset by an increase in interest on securities available for sale-taxable. During 2025, interest and fees on LHFS and LHFI-FTE decreased $19.9 million, or 2.3%, when compared to 2024, while the yield on loans (LHFS and LHFI) decreased to 6.15% compared to 6.45% reflecting lower interest rates partially offset by the increase in the average balance of the LHFI portfolio. During 2025, other interest income decreased $12.9 million, or 43.4%, when compared to 2024, while the yield on other earning assets decreased to 4.36% compared to 5.41%, primarily due to a decline in the average balance held at the FRBA as well as the FRB's decision to lower the rate it pays on reserves. During 2025, interest on securities available for sale-taxable increased $22.1 million, or 39.5%, when compared to 2024, while the yield on taxable securities available for sale increased to 4.44% compared to 3.13% principally due to higher yielding securities purchased in 2025 as well as the restructuring of the available for sale securities portfolio during the second quarter of 2024.

41

Average interest-bearing liabilities for 2025 totaled $13.042 billion compared to $13.159 billion for 2024, a decrease of $116.9 million, or 0.9%. The decrease in average interest-bearing liabilities was primarily the result of declines in average interest-bearing deposits and average other borrowings. Average interest-bearing deposits for 2025 decreased $59.2 million, or 0.5%, when compared to 2024, reflecting declines in average interest-bearing demand deposits and average savings deposits partially offset by growth in average time deposits. Average other borrowings for 2025 decreased $79.3 million, or 20.4%, when compared to 2024, principally due to a decrease in average short-term FHLB advances outstanding during the year partially offset by an increase in average GNMA loans eligible for repurchase.

Interest expense for 2025 totaled $312.5 million, a decrease of $63.4 million, or 16.9%, when compared with 2024, while the rate on total interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 2.40% compared to 2.86%. The decrease in interest expense for 2025 was principally due to decreases in interest on deposits, interest on other borrowings and interest on federal funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements, partially offset by an increase in interest on subordinated notes. Interest on deposits decreased $54.7 million, or 16.6%, while the rate on interest-bearing deposits decreased to 2.26% compared to 2.70% when 2025 is compared to 2024, primarily due to declines in interest on brokered and personal CDs, personal and commercial MMDA and public and commercial interest checking accounts, principally due to declines in interest rates. Interest on other borrowings decreased $7.4 million, or 43.1%, while the rate on other borrowings decreased to 3.16% compared to 4.42%, when 2025 is compared to 2024, principally due to a decrease in interest expense on FHLB advances, principally due to a decline in rates on short-term FHLB advances. Interest on federal funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements decreased $2.6 million, or 13.0%, while the rate on federal funds purchased and securities sold under repurchase agreements decreased to 4.26% compared to 5.05%, when 2025 is compared to 2024, principally due to a decline in interest expense on upstream federal funds purchased, reflecting declines in the federal funds target rate by the FRB. Interest on subordinated notes increased $1.9 million, or 39.9%, while the rate on subordinated notes increased to 4.99% from 3.84% when 2025 is compared to 2024, primarily due to the accelerated amortization of capitalized costs related to the subordinated notes issued in 2020 which were repaid fully during the fourth quarter of 2025. See the section captioned "Subordinated Notes" for additional information regarding changes in the subordinated notes.

42

The following table provides the tax equivalent basis yield or rate for each component of the tax equivalent net interest margin for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

(1) During the first quarter of 2025, Trustmark ceased the daily sweep from low transaction interest-bearing demand deposits to savings deposits. Prior periods have been reclassified accordingly.

43

The table below shows the change from year to year for each component of the tax equivalent net interest margin in the amount generated by volume changes and the amount generated by changes in the yield or rate (tax equivalent basis) for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

(1) During the first quarter of 2025, Trustmark ceased the daily sweep from low transaction interest-bearing demand deposits to savings deposits. Prior periods have been reclassified accordingly.

The change in interest due to both volume and yield or rate has been allocated to change due to volume and change due to yield or rate in proportion to the absolute value of the change in each. Tax-exempt income has been adjusted to a tax equivalent basis using the federal statutory corporate tax rate in effect for each of the three years presented. The balances of nonaccrual loans and the related income recognized have been included for purposes of these computations.

Provision for Credit Losses

The PCL, LHFI is the amount necessary to maintain the ACL, LHFI at the amount of expected credit losses inherent within the LHFI portfolio. The amount of PCL and the related ACL for LHFI are based on Trustmark’s ACL methodology. The PCL, LHFI totaled $14.3 million for 2025, compared to a PCL, LHFI, excluding the PCL, LHFI sale of 1-4 family mortgage loans, of $37.3 million for 2024 and a PCL, LHFI of $27.4 million for 2023. The PCL, LHFI for 2025 primarily reflected an increase in required reserves as a result of loan growth, changes in the macroeconomic forecast and updates to various qualitative reserve factors, partially offset by a decrease in specific reserves for individually analyzed credits, positive credit migration and reserves released associated with the resolution of the External Factor – Credit Quality Review qualitative factor.

FASB ASC Topic 326 requires Trustmark to estimate expected credit losses for off-balance sheet credit exposures which are not unconditionally cancellable by Trustmark. Trustmark maintains a separate ACL for off-balance sheet credit exposures, including unfunded commitments and letters of credit. Adjustments to the ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures are recorded to the PCL, off-balance sheet credit exposures. The PCL, off-balance sheet credit exposures totaled a negative $1.4 million for 2025 compared to a negative $4.7 million for 2024, and a negative $2.8 million for 2023. The release in PCL on off-balance sheet credit exposures for 2025 primarily reflected a decrease in required reserves as a result of positive credit migration and reserves released associated with the resolution of the External Factor – Credit Quality Review qualitative factor, partially offset by an increase in required reserves as a result of changes in the total reserve rate.

44

See the section captioned “Allowance for Credit Losses” for information regarding Trustmark’s ACL methodology as well as further analysis of the PCL.

Noninterest Income (Loss)

The following table provides the comparative components of noninterest income (loss) for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

n/m - percentage changes greater than +/- 100% are not considered meaningful

Changes in various components of noninterest income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2025 are discussed in further detail below. For analysis of Trustmark’s wealth management income, please see the section captioned “Results of Segment Operations.”

Mortgage Banking, Net

The following table illustrates the components of mortgage banking, net included in noninterest income (loss) for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

n/m - percentage changes greater than +/- 100% are not considered meaningful

The increase in mortgage banking, net when 2025 is compared to 2024 was principally due to a decrease in the net negative hedge ineffectiveness and increases in the gain on sales of loans, net and mortgage servicing income, net, partially offset by an increase in the run-off of the MSR. Mortgage loan production totaled $1.528 billion for 2025, an increase of $109.9 million, or 7.8%, when compared to 2024. Loans serviced for others totaled $8.956 billion at December 31, 2025, compared with $8.763 billion at December 31, 2024, and $8.477 billion at December 31, 2023.

Representing a significant component of mortgage banking income is gain on sales of loans, net. The increase in the gain on sales of loans, net when 2025 is compared to 2024 was primarily the result of an increase in the mortgage valuation adjustment. Loan sales increased $16.2 million, or 1.4%, during 2025 to total $1.158 billion compared to an increase of $5.3 million, or 0.5%, during 2024 to total $1.141 billion.

45

Other, Net

The following table illustrates the components of other, net included in noninterest income (loss) for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

n/m - percentage changes greater than +/- 100% are not considered meaningful

The decrease in other, net when 2025 is compared to 2024 was principally due to the $8.1 million Visa C shares fair value adjustment during the second quarter of 2024 as well as an increase in amortization of tax credit partnerships, partially offset by the $4.8 million noncredit-related loss on the sale of 1-4 family mortgage loans recorded during the second quarter of 2024.

Noninterest Expense

The following table illustrates the comparative components of noninterest expense for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

Changes in the various components of noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2025 are discussed in further detail below. Management considers disciplined expense management a key area of focus in the support of improving shareholder value.

Salaries and Employee Benefits

The increase in salaries and employee benefits when 2025 is compared to 2024 was principally due to increases in salaries expense, primarily due to general merit increases and new associates added during 2025, annual management performance incentives, medical insurance expense, commission expense due to the increase in mortgage originations and other salaries expense.

Services and Fees

The increase in services and fees when 2025 is compared to 2024 was principally due to increases in data processing charges related to software, business process outsourcing fees, advertising expense and legal expense.

46

Other Expense

The following table illustrates the comparative components of other noninterest expense for the periods presented ($ in thousands):

n/m - percentage changes greater than +/- 100% are not considered meaningful

The decrease in other expense when 2025 is compared to 2024 was principally due to a decrease in FDIC assessment expense, primarily due to a decrease in the assessment rate, which was largely offset by increases in loan expense and other miscellaneous expenses.

General Banking

Net interest income for the General Banking Segment for 2025 increased $47.9 million, or 8.3%, when compared with 2024, primarily resulting from declines in all categories of interest expense as well as an increase in interest on securities, partially offset by decreases in interest and fees from LHFS and LHFI and other interest income. The PCL (LHFI and off-balance sheet credit exposures) for the General Banking Segment for 2025 totaled $12.9 million compared to a PCL of $41.1 million during 2024 and a PCL of $26.7 million during 2023. For more information on these net interest income items, please see the sections captioned “Financial Highlights” and “Results of Operations.”

Noninterest income (loss) for the General Banking Segment increased $183.9 million during 2025, primarily due to the net loss on the sale of available for sale securities and the noncredit-related loss on the sale of 1-4 family mortgage loans during the second quarter of 2024, as well as increases in mortgage banking, net and gain on sale on premises and equipment, partially offset by the gain on the conversion of Visa Class B-1 shares to Visa Class C shares during the second quarter of 2024 and a decrease in cash management service fees and an increase in the amortization of tax credit partnerships. Noninterest income (loss) for the General Banking Segment represented 16.4% of total revenue for 2025, a negative 11.7% for 2024 and 17.2% for 2023. Noninterest income (loss) for the General Banking Segment includes service charges on deposit accounts; wealth management; bank card and other fees; mortgage banking, net; other, net and securities gains (losses), net. For more information on these noninterest income (loss) items, please see the analysis included in the section captioned “Noninterest Income (Loss).”

Noninterest expense for the General Banking Segment increased $25.0 million, or 5.5%, during 2025, principally due to increases in salaries and employee benefits, data processing expenses related to software, outside services and fees, business process outsourcing expense, net occupancy-premise expenses, loan expenses and advertising expense, partially offset by a decrease in FDIC assessment

expense. For more information on these noninterest expense items, please see the analysis included in the section captioned “Noninterest Expense.”

Wealth Management

During 2025, net income for the Wealth Management Segment increased $4.1 million, or 52.9%, principally due to increases in net interest income and noninterest income partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense. Net interest income for the Wealth Management Segment increased $3.8 million, or 63.4%, when 2025 is compared to 2024. The increase in net interest income for the Wealth Management Segment when 2025 is compared to 2024 was principally due to an increase in earnings credit on liabilities net of cost of funds on assets as well as an increase in interest on loans partially offset by an increase in interest on deposits generated by the Private Banking Group. The PCL for the Wealth Management Segment for 2025 totaled a negative $26 thousand compared to a PCL of $154 thousand during 2024 and a negative PCL of $2.1 million during 2023. Noninterest income for the Wealth Management Segment, which includes income related to investment management, trust and brokerage services, increased $3.1 million, or 8.4%, during 2025, principally due to increases in income from brokerage and trust management services. Noninterest expense increased $1.6 million, or 4.8%, when 2025 is compared to 2024, principally due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits, primarily related to broker commissions, other salaries expense, general merit increases and annual portfolio manager incentives partially offset by a decline in trust commissions.

At December 31, 2025 and 2024, Trustmark held assets under management and administration of $10.931 billion and $9.423 billion and brokerage assets of $2.582 billion and $2.638 billion, respectively.

Income Taxes

For the year ended December 31, 2025, Trustmark’s combined effective tax rate from continuing operations was 18.4% compared to a negative 32.7% in 2024 and 15.3% in 2023. The negative effective tax rate from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2024 was principally due to the significant non-routine transactions that occurred during the second quarter of 2024. Excluding the significant non-routine transactions, Trustmark’s combined effective tax rate from continuing operations for 2024 was 16.1%. Trustmark’s effective tax rate continues to be less than the statutory rate primarily due to various tax-exempt income items and its utilization of income tax credit programs. Trustmark invests in partnerships that provide income tax credits on a Federal and/or State basis (i.e., new market tax credits, low income housing tax credits or historical tax credits). The income tax credits related to these partnerships are utilized as specifically allowed by income tax law and are recorded as a reduction in income tax expense.

Financial Condition

Earning assets serve as the primary revenue streams for Trustmark and are comprised of securities, loans and other earning assets. Average earning assets totaled $17.037 billion, or 92.1% of total average assets, at December 31, 2025, compared with $17.010 billion, or 91.7% of total average assets, at December 31, 2024, an increase of $26.2 million, or 0.2%.

Securities

The securities portfolio is utilized by Management to manage interest rate risk, generate interest income, provide liquidity and use as collateral for public and wholesale funding. Risk and return can be adjusted by altering duration, composition and/or balance of the portfolio. The weighted-average life of the portfolio at December 31, 2025 and 2024 was 4.3 and 4.8 years, respectively.

When compared with December 31, 2024, total investment securities increased by $56.4 million, or 1.9%, during 2025. This increase resulted primarily from purchases of available for sale securities and an increase in the fair market value of the available for sale securities, partially offset by calls, maturities and pay-downs of the loans underlying GSE guaranteed securities. Trustmark sold no securities during 2025, compared to $1.561 billion of available for sale securities sold during 2024, generating a loss of $182.8 million.

During 2022, Trustmark reclassified approximately $766.0 million of securities available for sale to securities held to maturity to mitigate the potential adverse impact of a rising interest rate environment on the fair value of the available for sale securities and the related impact on tangible common equity. At the date of these transfers, the net unrealized holding loss on the available for sale securities totaled approximately $91.9 million ($68.9 million net of tax). The resulting net unrealized holding losses are being amortized over the remaining life of the securities as a yield adjustment in a manner consistent with the amortization or accretion of the original purchase premium or discount on the associated security.

At December 31, 2025, the net unamortized, unrealized loss on all transferred securities included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI) in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets totaled $36.3 million compared to $46.6 million at December 31, 2024.

48

Available for sale securities are carried at their estimated fair value with unrealized gains or losses recognized, net of taxes, in AOCI, a separate component of shareholders’ equity. At December 31, 2025, available for sale securities totaled $1.877 billion, which represented 60.9% of the securities portfolio, compared to $1.693 billion, or 55.9%, at December 31, 2024. At December 31, 2025, unrealized gains, net on available for sale securities totaled $34.4 million compared to unrealized losses, net of $27.0 million at December 31, 2024. At December 31, 2025, available for sale securities consisted of U.S. Treasury securities, direct obligations of government agencies and GSE guaranteed mortgage-related securities.

Held to maturity securities are carried at amortized cost and represent those securities that Trustmark both intends and has the ability to hold to maturity. At December 31, 2025, held to maturity securities totaled $1.207 billion and represented 39.1% of the total securities portfolio, compared with $1.335 billion, or 44.1%, at December 31, 2024.

The following table details the weighted-average yield for each range of maturities of securities available for sale and held to maturity using the amortized cost at December 31, 2025 (tax equivalent basis):

Mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations are included in maturity categories based on their stated maturity date. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations.

Management continues to focus on asset quality as one of the strategic goals of the securities portfolio, which is evidenced by the investment of 100.0% of the portfolio in U.S. Treasury securities, GSE-backed obligations and other Aaa-rated securities as determined by Moody’s Investors Services (Moody’s). None of the securities owned by Trustmark are collateralized by assets which are considered sub-prime. Furthermore, outside of stock ownership in the FHLB of Dallas and FRBA, Trustmark does not hold any other equity investment in a GSE.

At December 31, 2025, Trustmark did not hold securities of any one issuer with a carrying value exceeding 10% of total shareholders’ equity, other than certain GSEs which are exempt from inclusion. Management continues to closely monitor the credit quality as well as the ratings of the debt and mortgage-backed securities issued by the GSEs and held in Trustmark’s securities portfolio.

The following tables present Trustmark’s securities portfolio by amortized cost and estimated fair value and by credit rating, as determined by Moody’s, at December 31, 2025 and 2024 ($ in thousands):

The table above presenting the credit rating of Trustmark’s securities is formatted to show the securities according to the credit rating category, and not by category of the underlying security. As noted in the tables above, a significant portion of Trustmark's investment portfolio moved from the Aaa credit rating to the Aa1 to Aa3 credit rating as of December 31, 2025. The change in the credit rating of Trustmark's investment portfolio was the result of Moody's downgrade of the United States' credit rating from Aaa to Aa1 during the second quarter of 2025. The downgrade was primarily due to concerns about the rising federal debt, increasing interest costs and a perceived weakening of the government's ability to respond to future economic shocks.

LHFS

At December 31, 2025, LHFS totaled $278.8 million, consisting of $142.5 million of residential real estate mortgage loans in the process of being sold to third parties and $136.3 million of GNMA optional repurchase loans. At December 31, 2024, LHFS totaled $200.3 million, consisting of $102.7 million of residential real estate mortgage loans in the process of being sold to third parties and $97.6 million of GNMA optional repurchase loans. Please refer to the nonperforming assets table that follows for information on GNMA loans eligible for repurchase which are past due 90 days or more.

Trustmark did not exercise its buy-back option on any delinquent loans serviced for GNMA during 2025 or 2024.

LHFI

The table below provides the carrying value of the LHFI portfolio by loan class for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 ($ in thousands):

LHFI at December 31, 2025 increased $584.3 million, or 4.5%, compared to December 31, 2024. The increase in LHFI during 2025 was primarily due to net growth in other commercial loans and leases, commercial and industrial LHFI, LHFI secured by real estate and state and other political subdivision LHFI.

LHFI secured by real estate (loans secured by real estate and other loans secured by real estate) increased $95.8 million, or 1.0%, during 2025, reflecting net growth in other real estate secured LHFI, other LHFI secured by 1-4 family residential properties and LHFI secured by 1-4 family residential properties, partially offset by net declines in other construction LHFI, LHFI secured by nonfarm, nonresidential properties (NFNR LHFI) and construction, land development and other land LHFI. Other real estate secured LHFI increased $490.4 million, or 30.0%, during 2025, primarily due to other construction loans that moved to LHFI secured by multi-family residential properties in the Alabama, Texas, Mississippi and Georgia market regions. Excluding other construction loan reclassifications, other real estate secured LHFI declined by $516.6 million, or 31.6%, during 2025, primarily due to declines in LHFI secured by multi-family residential properties in the Alabama and Texas market regions partially offset by growth in LHFI secured by multi-family residential properties in the Georgia and Mississippi market regions. Other LHFI secured by 1-4 family residential properties, which primarily consists of revolving home equity lines of credit, increased $54.0 million, or 8.3%, during 2025 reflecting growth in the Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Tennessee and Texas market regions. LHFI secured by 1-4 family residential properties increased $52.7 million, or 2.3%, during 2025 primarily due to an increase in mortgage loan originations in the Mississippi market region. LHFI secured by 1-4 family residential properties are primarily included in the Mississippi market region because they are centrally analyzed and approved as part of a specific line of business located at Trustmark's headquarters in Jackson, Mississippi. Other construction loans decreased $234.7 million, or 28.3%, during 2025 primarily due to other construction loans moved to other loan categories upon the completion of the related construction project partially offset by new construction loans in the Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, Texas and Florida market regions. During 2025, $1.165 billion loans were moved from other construction to other loan categories, including $1.007 billion to multi-family residential loans, $107.6 million to nonowner-occupied loans and $50.5 million to owner-occupied loans. Excluding all reclassifications between loan categories, growth in other construction loans totaled $928.8 million during 2025. NFNR LHFI decreased $228.8 million, or 6.5%, during 2025, principally due to declines in nonowner-occupied loans in all six market regions as well as owner-occupied loans in the Alabama and Florida market region, partially offset by other construction loans that moved to NFNR LHFI in the Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Texas and Florida market regions as well as growth in owner-occupied loans in the Mississippi, Texas and Tennessee market regions. Excluding other construction loan reclassifications, the NFNR LHFI portfolio decreased $386.9 million, or 11.0%, during 2025. LHFI secured by construction, land development and other land decreased $37.9 million, or 6.5%, during 2025 principally due to declines in land development loans in Trustmark's Alabama and Texas market regions, unimproved land loans in the Texas, Mississippi, Florida and Tennessee market regions, and 1-4 family construction loans in the Mississippi and Texas market regions.

Other commercial loans and leases increased $230.8 million, or 39.2%, during 2025, principally due to increases in equipment finance leases in the Georgia market region and other commercial loans in the Mississippi, Georgia and Texas market regions, partially offset by declines in other commercial loans in the Alabama and Tennessee market regions. Trustmark's equipment finance leases are primarily reported in the Georgia market region because these leases are centrally analyzed and approved as part of the Equipment Finance line of business which is located in Atlanta, Georgia. Commercial and industrial LHFI increased $158.7 million, or 8.6%, during 2025, primarily due to growth in the Georgia, Alabama and Tennessee market regions, partially offset by a decline in the Mississippi market

region. State and other political subdivision LHFI increased $91.7 million, or 9.5%, during 2025, reflecting growth in the Mississippi, Texas, Georgia and Tennessee market regions, partially offset by declines in the Alabama and Florida market regions. For additional information regarding the equipment finance leases, please see the sections captioned “Lessor Arrangements” included in Note 1 – Significant Accounting Policies and Note 9 – Leases of Part II. Item 8. – Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of this report.

The following table provides information regarding Trustmark’s home equity loans and home equity lines of credit which are included in the LHFI secured by 1-4 family residential properties at December 31, 2025 and 2024 ($ in thousands):

Due to the increased risk associated with second liens, loan terms and underwriting guidelines differ from those used for products secured by first liens. Loan amounts and loan-to-value ratios are limited and are lower for second liens than first liens. Also, interest rates and maximum amortization periods are adjusted accordingly. In addition, regardless of lien position, the passing credit score for approval of all home equity lines of credit is higher than that of term loans. The ACL on LHFI is also reflective of the increased risk related to second liens through application of a greater loss factor to this portion of the portfolio.

In the following tables, LHFI reported by region (along with related nonperforming assets and net charge-offs) are associated with location of origination except for loans secured by 1-4 family residential properties (representing traditional mortgages) credit cards and equipment finance loans and leases. Loans secured by 1-4 family residential properties and credit cards are included in the Mississippi region because they are centrally analyzed and approved as part of a specific line of business located at Trustmark’s headquarters in Jackson, Mississippi. The equipment finance loans and leases are primarily reported in the Georgia market region because they are centrally analyzed and approved as part of the Equipment Finance line of business which is located in Atlanta, Georgia.
