Hope Bancorp, Inc. (HOPE), the holding company of Bank of Hope, the only regional Korean American bank in the United States, will participate in the 26th Annual KBW Community Bank Investor Conference in New York City on July 29, 2025. This event provides a platform for the bank to engage with institutional investors and present its strategic vision.

As of June 30, 2025, Hope Bancorp reported total assets of $18.55 billion, making it the largest regional bank serving multicultural customers across the U.S. and Hawaii. The bank's comprehensive financial services include commercial, corporate, and consumer loans, deposit and fee-based products, treasury management, foreign currency exchange, and international trade financing. It operates 46 full-service branches under the Bank of Hope brand and 29 branches under the Territorial Savings banner in Hawaii.

The company's executive management will present an investor presentation, which will be available on the company's website from July 25, 2025. This presentation is expected to provide insights into the bank's recent strategic moves, including the acquisition of Territorial Savings Bank, which expanded its footprint into Hawaii and diversified its loan portfolio. The acquisition also contributed to a 15 basis point expansion in the bank's net interest margin (NIM) to 2.69% in Q2 2025.

Additionally, the bank's participation in the conference underscores its commitment to transparency and stakeholder trust. The company's institutional ownership of 92.66% and a dividend yield of 5.22% offer investors a compelling risk-rebalance proposition. The bank's ability to serve Korean American and other immigrant communities with tailored financial solutions positions it as a unique player in a fragmented market.

Investors are encouraged to monitor key metrics such as NIM, loan quality, and market expansion, particularly in Hawaii, to assess the bank's long-term growth potential.
