Merchants Bancorp shares drop 9.3% after Q1 earnings reveal sharp deposit decline and rising funding costs

Levi & Korsinsky has launched an investigation into Merchants Bancorp following its Q1 2026 earnings report, which showed a headline beat but revealed a nearly 50% drop in brokered deposits compared to Q1 2025. This decline, coupled with a significant increase in the company's cost of funds, led to a 9.3% share price drop as investors questioned the sustainability of earnings growth. Prior company statements highlighted strong deposit growth, but the earnings report did not address the steep deposit decline, causing concern among investors and analysts. The investigation aims to explore potential violations of federal securities laws related to these disclosures.
