Results of Operations

Third Quarter 2023 - Comparison to prior year quarter

Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2023, was $4.1 million or $7.1 million lower than the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to merger-related costs, increased funding costs, and the change in provision for credit losses that included a recapture of credit losses in the prior year quarter.

Total revenue (non-GAAP2) for the three months ended September 30, 2023, was $27.2 million or 12% lower than the three months ended September 30, 2022, and included $26.4 million in interest and fees on loans and $10.3 million in investment security income, which was a 42% increase and a 2% decrease, respectively, over the prior year three months ended September 30, 2022. Overall, interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2023, was $37.3 million or 27% higher than the three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in interest income for the Company's loans was due to increased loan balances and higher rates, and the interest income decrease in investment securities was due to a lower level of investment securities. Loans, net of allowance for credit losses, ended the quarter at $2.0 billion or 18% higher than September 30, 2022, while the investment portfolio fair value ended the quarter at $1.2 billion or 16% lower than the prior year quarter.

The increase in interest income was offset by an increase in interest expense, which was $14.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, or $11.8 million higher than the prior year period. The rapidly rising rate environment resulted in an increase in the Company's cost of funds that outpaced the resulting benefit of higher rates on assets. The Company's deposit and borrowing interest expense was $11.3 million and $3.1 million, or $10.3 million and $1.5 million higher, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Total deposits ended the quarter at $3.0 billion, which was approximately the same as in the prior year. Non-interest-bearing deposits decreased by 13% to $853.4 million and borrowed funds increased by 23% to $299.0 million from the prior year quarter ended September 30, 2022, reflecting the changing deposit mix from non-interest bearing to interest-bearing, resulting in higher interest expense.

Non-interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2023, increased slightly from the same period last year and was $4.3 million in the current period. The increase in other non-interest income is primarily the result of increased fee income from customer swap activity when compared to the prior year quarter, partially offset by a decrease in fee income for service charges and fees.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $0.2 million, compared to a recapture of credit losses of $2.4 million in the prior year quarter. Total revenue (non-GAAP2) after provision for credit losses was $26.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, which was a decrease of 19% compared to the same period last year.

Non-interest expense increased by $2.5 million, or 12%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, from the prior year three months ended September 30, 2022. The increase was primarily due to other non-interest expenses associated with merger-related activities. The Company incurred expenses during the third quarter of 2023 related to the pending merger with Summit that included legal, consulting, investment banking, and due diligence-related costs.

As of September 30, 2023, total shareholders' equity was $270.8 million or $15.3 million higher than September 30, 2022, primarily the result of higher earnings in the last quarter of 2022.

Nine months ended September 30, 2023 - Comparison to prior year period

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was $17.6 million or $13.0 million lower than the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Total revenue (non-GAAP2) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was $84.6 million or 5% lower than the nine months ended September 30, 2022, and included $74.5 million in interest and fees on loans and $32.4 million in investment security income, which was a 42% increase and an 18% increase, respectively, over the prior year nine months. Overall, interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, was $108.7 million or 36% higher than the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in interest income for the Company's loans was due to increased loan growth and higher rates and the interest income increase on investment securities was due to higher rates.

The increase in interest income was offset by an increase in interest expense, which was $37.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, or $33.0 million higher than the prior year period. The rapidly rising rate environment resulted in an increase in the Company's cost of funds that outpaced the resulting benefit of higher rates on assets. The Company's deposit and borrowing interest expense was $26.7 million and $10.5 million, or $25.0 million and $8.0 million higher, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, than for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Non-interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, increased $0.3 million from the same period last year to $13.1 million. The increase was primarily due to higher other non-interest income revenue of $0.5 million. Within other non-interest income, the Company received an increase in dividend income from the FHLB and increased fee income from customer swap activity when compared to the prior year period ended September 30, 2022. This increase in non-interest income was partially offset by lower income generated from service charges and fees which decreased by $0.2 million.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $1.0 million compared to a recapture of credit losses of $7.6 million in the prior year period. Total revenue (non-GAAP2) after provision for credit losses was $83.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which was a decrease of 13% compared to the same period last year.

Non-interest expense increased by $4.7 million, or 8%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, from the prior year nine months. The increase was primarily driven by other non-interest expenses that the Company incurred during 2023 related to costs associated with the listing of our common stock on the Nasdaq stock exchange and the filing of a Form 10 Registration Statement with the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission ("SEC") to register our common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (together, "Listing-related"), and with costs incurred for the merger with Summit. Additionally, the Company incurred higher personnel-related expenses, primarily benefits and pension, due to increased healthcare costs and general macro-economic conditions.

Regulatory capital ratios

The Company continues to be well-capitalized with capital ratios that are above regulatory requirements. As of September 30, 2023, our Common Equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted asset and Total risk-based capital to risk-weighted asset ratios were 16.4% and 17.5%, respectively, and significantly above the well-capitalized requirements of 6.5% and 10%, respectively. The leverage ratio was 11.3% compared to a 5% level to be considered well-capitalized.

Operating net income is a non-GAAP measure that is derived from net income adjusted for significant items. The Company believes that operating net income is useful in periods with certain significant items, such as Listing-related or merger-related expenses. The operating net income is more reflective of management's ability to grow the business and manage expenses. The Company only incurred these significant items in 2023.

Total revenue is a non-GAAP measure and is derived from total interest income less total interest expense plus total non-interest income. We believe that total revenue is a useful tool to determine how the Company is managing its business and how stable our revenue sources are from period to period.

Pretax, pre-provision earnings is a non-GAAP measure and is based on adjusting income before income taxes and to exclude provision for (recapture of) credit losses. We believe that pretax, pre-provision earnings is a useful tool to help evaluate the ability to provide for credit costs through operations and provides an additional basis to compare results between periods by isolating the impact of provision for (recapture of) credit losses, which can vary significantly between periods.

The interest income earned on certain earning assets is completely or partially exempt from federal income tax. As such, these tax-exempt instruments typically yield lower returns than taxable investments. To provide more meaningful comparisons of net interest income, we use net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent (FTE) basis by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable investments. FTE net interest income is calculated by adding the tax benefit on certain financial interest earning assets, whose interest is tax-exempt, to total interest income then subtracting total interest expense. Management believes FTE net interest income is a standard practice in the banking industry, and when net interest income is adjusted on an FTE basis, yields on taxable, nontaxable, and partially taxable assets are comparable; however, the adjustment to an FTE basis has no impact on net income and this adjustment is not permitted under GAAP. FTE net interest income is only used for calculating FTE net interest margin, which is calculated by annualizing FTE net interest income and then dividing by the average earning assets. The tax-rate used for this adjustment is 21%. Net interest income shown elsewhere in this presentation is GAAP net interest income.

(1) Significant items include items such as merger-related expenses and are further described below in our non-GAAP reconciliation tables.

(2) Non-GAAP financial measures referenced in this release are used by management to measure performance in operating the business that management believes enhances investors' ability to better understand the underlying business performance and trends related to core business activities. Reconciliations of non-GAAP operating measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the non-GAAP reconciliation tables in this release. Non-GAAP measures should not be used as a substitute for the closest comparable GAAP measurements.

(3) Includes Federal Home Loan Bank and correspondent bank availability.
