Statements of Income

FHLBank’s net income totaled $89.5 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $120.1 million for the same prior-year period. The $30.6 million decrease in net income was driven primarily by the following:

• Net interest income was $133.2 million for the first quarter of 2026, a decrease of $39 million from $172.2 million during the same prior-year period.
  • Interest income was $798.9 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $1,198.0 million in the same prior-year period. This decrease was driven by lower average advances and lower average short-term interest rates.
  • Interest expense was $665.7 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $1,025.8 million in the same prior-year period. This decrease was the result of lower average consolidated obligations and lower average short-term interest rates.
• Noninterest income was $1.2 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $0.0 million in the same prior-year period.
• Other expense was $28.1 million for the first quarter of 2026, compared to $30.9 million in the same prior-year period. This $2.8 million decrease was due primarily to lower assessments from the Finance Agency and the Office of Finance.
• Voluntary contributions to community products were $5.5 million, including a supplemental voluntary contribution to AHP of $0.5 million for the first quarter of 2026, a decrease of $1.5 million compared to $7.0 million in the same prior-year period. FHLBank anticipates making voluntary contributions of at least 5% of the prior year's pre-assessment net income to voluntary community investment products, a commitment target of at least $25.8 million.
• Statutory AHP assessments were $10.0 million as a result of first quarter 2026 earnings, compared to $13.4 million in the same prior-year period.

Statements of Condition

At March 31, 2026, total assets were $83.8 billion, compared with $73.3 billion at December 31, 2025. The increase was primarily due to an increase in advances, which totaled $46.5 billion at March 31, 2026, compared to $36.8 billion at year-end 2025. Demand for advances continues to fluctuate based on members’ liquidity management practices, which are influenced by their loan demand, deposit balances and investment activities.

Total capital at March 31, 2026, was $5.1 billion, compared to $4.6 billion at December 31, 2025, including retained earnings of $2.3 billion at March 31, 2026, compared to $2.2 billion at December 31, 2025. At March 31, 2026, FHLBank remained in compliance with all regulatory capital requirements.

Quarterly Dividends

The Board of Directors declared a dividend on subclass B1 (membership) stock equal to an annual yield of 4.85% and a dividend on subclass B2 (activity) stock equal to an annual yield of 9.5%. Dividends paid will be calculated on stockholders’ average balances during the period January 1, 2026, to March 31, 2026, and be credited to stockholders’ accounts on April 24, 2026.

The attached table presents the annualized dividend rate paid over eight quarters, including the dividend to be paid April 24, 2026; these dividends are based on stockholders' average balances for the previous quarter.
