Risk factors and legal proceedings

The risks Merchants Bancorp names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Feb 27, 2026: 44 risks under these headings, as written.5

  • Risks Related to Our Business
  • Mortgage Banking and Community Banking Risks
  • Decreased residential and multi-family mortgage origination, volume and pricing decisions of competitors, and changes in interest rates, may adversely affect our profitability.
  • Our mortgage banking profitability could significantly decline if we are not able to originate and resell a high volume of mortgage loans.
  • If we violate HUD requirements, our multi-family FHA origination and servicing business could be adversely affected.
  • Real estate construction loans are based upon estimates of costs and values associated with the complete project. These estimates may be inaccurate, and we may be exposed to significant losses on loans for these projects.
