**EXHIBIT 99.1**

**Eagle Bancorp Montana Earns $4.0 Million, or $0.51 per Diluted Share, in the First Quarter of 2026, Declares Quarterly Cash Dividend of $0.145 Per Share and Renews Stock Repurchase Plan**

HELENA, Mont., April 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eagle Bancorp Montana, Inc. (NASDAQ: EBMT), (the "Company," "Eagle"), the holding company of Opportunity Bank of Montana (the "Bank"), today reported net income of $4.0 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $4.7 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, in the preceding quarter, and $3.2 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2025.

Eagle's board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.145 per share on April 23, 2026. The dividend will be payable June 5, 2026, to shareholders of record May 15, 2026. The current dividend represents an annualized yield of 2.72% based on the average closing price of the Company's common stock reported on NASDAQ during the first quarter of 2026 of $21.32 per share.

"Eagle's first quarter results reflect the continued strength of our franchise and the durability of our core earnings," said Laura F. Clark, President and CEO. "Net income and earnings per share increased compared to the first quarter of last year, driven by further improvement in our funding costs, resilient asset yields and disciplined expense management. Net interest margin continued to expand during the quarter, and with a strong core deposit base and a diversified loan portfolio, we remain well positioned to pursue opportunities across our Montana market and deliver long term value for our shareholders."

**First Quarter 2026 Highlights** (at or for the three-month period ended March 31, 2026, except where noted):

* Net income was $4.0 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $4.7 million, or $0.60 per diluted share in the preceding quarter, and $3.2 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, in the first quarter a year ago.

Home equity loans increased 8.6% to $109.3 million, residential construction loans decreased 3.9% to $43.7 million, and consumer loans decreased 14.2% to $23.2 million, compared to a year ago.

"Deposit costs continued to decline in the first quarter as we maintained our strong core deposit base and maturing CDs repriced lower, and we expect this momentum to continue through the remainder of the year," said Miranda Spaulding, Chief Financial Officer.

Total deposits increased to $1.79 billion at March 31, 2026, compared to $1.69 billion at March 31, 2025, and $1.78 billion at December 31, 2025. Noninterest-bearing checking accounts represented 24.5%, interest-bearing checking accounts represented 12.2%, savings accounts represented 12.0%, money market accounts comprised 24.8% and time certificates of deposit made up 26.5% of the total deposit portfolio at March 31, 2026. The average cost of total deposits was 1.52% in the first quarter of 2026, compared to 1.53% in the preceding quarter and 1.67% in the first quarter of 2025. The estimated amount of uninsured deposits was approximately $354.1 million, or 20% of total deposits, at March 31, 2026, compared to $354.6 million, or 20% of total deposits, at December 31, 2025.

FHLB advances and other borrowings decreased to $26.7 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $125.0 million at March 31, 2025, and $38.0 million at December 31, 2025.

Other borrowings at March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025 include the Company's line of credit draw for $15.0 million at an average rate of 6.34% for the first quarter of 2026, compared to 6.61% for the fourth quarter of 2025.

Shareholders' equity was $193.0 million at March 31, 2026, compared to $177.6 million a year earlier and $191.8 million three months earlier. Book value per share of $24.22 at March 31, 2026 increased 8.8%, compared to $22.26 a year earlier, and increased 0.5%, compared to $24.10 three months earlier. Tangible book value per share, a non-GAAP financial measure calculated by dividing shareholders' equity, less goodwill and core deposit intangible, by common shares outstanding, of $19.48 at March 31, 2026 increased 12.1%, compared to $17.38 a year earlier and increased 0.8%, compared to $19.32 three months earlier.

**Operating Results**

"Our net interest margin improved three-basis points sequentially and expanded 37-basis points over the prior year quarter, driven by a meaningful reduction in funding costs that more than offset modest compression in earning asset yields. While the interest rate environment remains increasingly tied to the broader policy backdrop, we remain optimistic that further easing, should it materialize, will provide additional relief on the liability side of the balance sheet and further net interest margin expansion," said Spaulding.

Eagle's NIM was 4.11% in the first quarter of 2026, compared to 4.08% in the preceding quarter and 3.74% in the first quarter a year ago. The interest accretion on acquired loans totaled $185,000 and resulted in a four-basis point increase in the NIM during the first quarter of 2026, compared to $138,000 and a three-basis point increase in the NIM during the preceding quarter. Average yields on interest earning assets for the first quarter of 2026 were 5.76%, compared to 5.83% in the fourth quarter of 2025 and 5.76% in the first quarter a year ago. Funding costs for the first quarter of 2026 decreased to 2.15%, compared to 2.28% in the fourth quarter of 2025 and 2.54% in the first quarter of 2025.

Net interest income, before the provision for credit losses, was $18.7 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $19.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2025, and increased 10.7% compared to $16.9 million in the first quarter of 2025. Revenues for the first quarter of 2026 were $23.6 million, compared to $24.3 million in the preceding quarter and increased 12.7% compared to $20.9 million in the first quarter a year ago.

Total noninterest income was $4.9 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $5.1 million in the preceding quarter, and increased 21.5% compared to $4.0 million in the first quarter a year ago. Net mortgage banking income, the largest component of noninterest income, totaled $2.4 million in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $2.6 million in the preceding quarter and $2.1 million in the first quarter a year ago.

"We remain disciplined in how we manage costs while continuing to direct capital towards the investments we believe will generate the most meaningful long-term results," said Darryl Rensmon, Chief Operating Officer. Eagle's first quarter noninterest expense was $18.2 million, which was unchanged compared to the preceding quarter. The $1.2 million, or 7.1% increase compared to the first quarter a year ago was largely due to higher salaries and employee benefits expense.

For the first quarter of 2026, the Company recorded income tax expense of $1.1 million, compared to $1.4 million in the preceding quarter and $631,000 in the first quarter of 2025. The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2026 was 21.8%, compared to 22.2% for the fourth quarter of 2025 and 16.3% for the first quarter of 2025.

**Credit Quality** 

Eagle recorded a $279,000 provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2026, compared to a $39,000 provision for credit losses in the preceding quarter and a $42,000 provision for credit losses in the first quarter a year ago. The allowance for credit losses represented 315.0% of nonperforming loans at March 31, 2026, compared to 308.4% three months earlier and 313.2% a year earlier. Nonperforming loans were $5.5 million at March 31, 2026, $5.6 million at December 31, 2025, and $5.3 million a year earlier. Net loan charge-offs totaled $49,000 in the first quarter of 2026, compared to $99,000 in the preceding quarter and $2,000 in the first quarter a year ago. The allowance for credit losses was $17.4 million, or 1.15% of total loans, at March 31, 2026, compared to $17.4 million, or 1.14% of total loans, at December 31, 2025, and $16.7 million, or 1.10% of total loans, a year ago.

**Capital Management**

Eagles's ratio of tangible common shareholders' equity (shareholders' equity, less goodwill and core deposit intangible) to tangible assets (total assets, less goodwill and core deposit intangible) was 7.55% at March 31, 2026, up from 6.77% a year ago and 7.43% three months earlier. This ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure. For the most comparable GAAP financial measure, see "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below. The Bank's Tier 1 capital to adjusted total average assets was 10.85% as of March 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2026, the Bank's regulatory capital was in excess of all applicable regulatory requirements and is deemed well capitalized.

**Stock Repurchase Authority**

Eagle announced that its Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to 400,000 shares of its common stock beginning May 1, 2026, representing approximately 5.0% of outstanding shares. Under the plan, shares may be purchased by the Company on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The extent to which the Company repurchases its shares and the timing of such repurchase will depend upon market conditions and other corporate considerations. The plan is expected to be in place for approximately 12 months, but may be suspended, terminated or modified by the Company's Board of Directors at any time. The plan does not obligate the Company to purchase any particular number of shares.

**Forward Looking Statements**

*This release may contain certain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and may be identified by the use of such words as "believe," "will" "expect," "anticipate," "should," "planned," "estimated," and "potential." These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to statements of our goals, intentions, expectations and anticipations; statements regarding our business plans, prospects, mergers, expense management initiatives, growth and operating strategies; statements regarding the asset quality of our loan and investment portfolios; and estimates of our risks and future costs and benefits. These forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs and expectations of our management and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change. These factors include, but are not limited to, changes in laws or government regulations or policies affecting financial institutions, including changes in regulatory fees and capital requirements; general economic conditions and political events, including the war in the Middle East, either nationally or in our market areas, that are worse than expected; the emergence or continuation of widespread health emergencies or pandemics, including steps taken by governmental and other authorities to contain, mitigate and combat such emergencies or pandemics; the impact of volatility in the U.S. banking industry, including the associated impact of any regulatory changes or other mitigation efforts taken by governmental agencies in response thereto; the direct or indirect impact of any new regulatory, policy or enforcement developments resulting from the policies or actions of the current U.S. presidential administration, including the implementation of tariffs and other protectionist trade policies, including any reciprocal tariffs by foreign countries, and any uncertainties related thereto; the possibility that future credit losses may be higher than currently expected due to changes in economic assumptions, customer behavior, adverse developments with respect to U.S. economic conditions and other uncertainties, including the impact of supply chain disruptions, inflationary pressures and labor shortages on economic conditions and our business; an inability to access capital markets or maintain deposits or borrowing costs; limitations on Eagle's ability to receive dividends from its subsidiaries; competition among banks, financial holding companies and other traditional and non-traditional financial service providers; loan demand or residential and commercial real estate values in Montana; the concentration of our business in Montana; our ability to continue to increase and manage our commercial real estate, commercial business and agricultural loans; the costs and effects of legal, compliance and regulatory actions, changes and developments, including the initiation and resolution of legal proceedings (including any securities, bank operations, consumer or employee litigation); inflation and changes in the interest rate environment that reduce our margins or reduce the fair value of financial instruments; possible changes in governmental monetary and fiscal policies, or any leadership changes of those determining such policies; adverse changes in the securities markets that lead to impairment in the value of our investment securities and goodwill; other economic, governmental, competitive, regulatory and technological factors that may affect our operations; our ability to implement new technologies and maintain secure and reliable technology systems including those that involve the Bank's third-party vendors and service providers; cyber incidents, or theft or loss of Company or customer data or money; Eagle's ability to assess and monitor the effect of evolving uses of artificial intelligence on its business and operations; the effects of any U.S. federal government shutdown, or closures or significant staff reductions in agencies regulating our business; our ability to navigate differing social, environmental, and sustainability concerns among governmental administrations, our stakeholders and other activists that may arise from our business activities; the effect of our recent or future acquisitions, including the failure to achieve expected revenue growth and/or expense savings, the failure to effectively integrate their operations, the outcome of any legal proceedings and the diversion of management time on issues related to the integration.* 

*Because of these and other uncertainties, our actual future results may be materially different from the results indicated by these forward-looking statements. All information set forth in this press release is current as of the date of this release and the company undertakes no duty or obligation to update this information.*

**Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures**

In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles utilized in the United States, or GAAP, this release, including the Financial Ratios and Other Data contains non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures in this release include: 1) core efficiency ratio, 2) tangible book value per share and 3) tangible common equity to tangible assets. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's operational performance, performance trends and financial condition, and to enhance investors' overall understanding of such financial performance. In particular, the use of tangible book value per share and tangible common equity to tangible assets is prevalent among banking regulators, investors and analysts.

The numerator for the core efficiency ratio is calculated by subtracting intangible asset amortization from noninterest expense. Tangible assets and tangible common shareholders' equity are calculated by excluding intangible assets from assets and shareholders' equity, respectively. For these financial measures, our intangible assets consist of goodwill and core deposit intangible. Tangible book value per share is calculated by dividing tangible common shareholders' equity by the number of common shares outstanding. We believe that this measure is consistent with the capital treatment by our bank regulatory agencies, which exclude intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios and present this measure to facilitate the comparison of the quality and composition of our capital over time and in comparison, to our competitors.

Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. Further, the non-GAAP financial measure of tangible book value per share should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for book value per share or total shareholders' equity determined in accordance with GAAP, and may not be comparable to a similarly titled measure reported by other companies. Eagle strongly encourages investors to review its consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. A reconciliation of the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures is presented below.
