DETAILED FINANCIALS

ServisFirst Bancshares, Inc. reported net income of $53.5 million and net income available to common stockholders of $53.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to net income and net income available to common stockholders of $58.0 million for the first quarter of 2023 and $62.1 million on for the second quarter of 2022. Basic and diluted earnings per common share were both $0.98 in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $1.07 and $1.06, respectively, in the first quarter of 2023 and $1.14 for both in the second quarter of 2022.

Annualized return on average assets was 1.50% and annualized return on average common stockholders’ equity was 15.85% for the second quarter of 2023, compared to 1.67% and 20.93%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2022.

Net interest income was $101.3 million for the second quarter of 2023, compared to $108.3 million for the first quarter of 2023 and $116.4 million for the second quarter of 2022. Net interest income was negatively impacted by the continued narrowing in net interest spread due to Federal Reserve increases in interest rates over the last year. The net interest margin in the second quarter of 2023 was 2.93% compared to 3.15% in the first quarter of 2023 and 3.26% in the second quarter of 2022. Loan yields were 5.94% during the second quarter of 2023 compared to 5.70% during the first quarter of 2023 and 4.38% during the second quarter of 2022. Investment yields were 2.64% during the second quarter of 2023 compared to 2.54% during the first quarter of 2023 and 2.37% during the second quarter of 2022. The increases in loan and investment yields were offset by increases in interest-bearing deposit rates, a shift from non-interest-bearing demand deposits to interest-bearing deposits, and higher interest rates on federal funds purchased. Average interest-bearing deposit rates were 3.32% during the second quarter of 2023, compared to 2.68% during the first quarter of 2023 and 0.36% during the second quarter of 2022. Average federal funds purchased rates were 5.14% during second quarter of 2023, compared to 4.67% during the first quarter of 2023 and 0.79% during the second quarter of 2022.

Average loans for the second quarter of 2023 were $11.60 billion, a decrease of $52.1 million, or 1.8% annualized, from average loans of $11.65 billion for the first quarter of 2023, and an increase of $1.41 billion, or 13.8%, from average loans of $10.19 billion for the second quarter of 2022.

Average total deposits for the second quarter of 2023 were $11.58 billion, an increase of $78.4 million, or 2.7%, annualized, over average total deposits of $11.50 billion for the first quarter of 2023, and a decrease of $459.4 million, or 3.8%, from average total deposits of $12.04 billion for the second quarter of 2022.

Non-performing assets to total assets were 0.16% for the second quarter of 2023, an increase of four basis points compared to 0.12% for both first quarter of 2023 and the second quarter of 2022. Annualized net charge-offs to average loans were 0.11% for the second quarter of 2023, compared to 0.05% and 0.02% for the first quarter of 2023 and second quarter of 2022, respectively. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans at June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022, was 1.31%, 1.28%, and 1.25%, respectively. We recorded a $6.7 million provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 2023 compared to $4.2 million in the first quarter of 2023, and $9.5 million in the second quarter of 2022.

Non-interest income decreased $924,000, or 9.7%, to $8.6 million for the second quarter of 2023 from $9.5 million in the second quarter of 2022, and increased $2.3 million, or 35.8%, on a linked quarter basis. Service charges on deposit accounts increased $9,000, or 0.4%, to $2.1 million from the second quarter of 2022 to the second quarter of 2023, and increased $208,000, or 10.8%, on a linked quarter basis. Mortgage banking revenue increased $82,000, or 13.4%, to $696,000 from the second quarter of 2022 to the second quarter of 2023, and increased $254,000, or 57.5%, on a linked quarter basis. Net credit card revenue decreased $266,000, or 10.0%, to $2.4 million during the second quarter of 2023, compared to $2.7 million during the second quarter of 2022, and increased $717,000, or 42.5%, on a linked quarter basis. The aggregate amount of spend on all credit card accounts increased 5.3% during the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022. Bank-owned life insurance ("BOLI") income decreased $1.2 million, or 33.1%, to $2.5 million during the second quarter of 2023, compared to $3.7 million during the second quarter of 2022, and increased $875,000, or 54.0%, on a linked quarter basis. During the second quarter of 2023, we recognized $890,000 of income primarily attributed to a death benefit related to a former employee in our BOLI program, compared to $2.1 million during the second quarter of 2022. Other operating income for the second quarter of 2023 decreased $2.3 million, or 73.6%, to $842,000 from $3.2 million in the second quarter of 2022, and increased $207,000, or 32.6%, on a linked quarter basis. We recognized $48,000 of income on an interest rate cap during the second quarter of 2023, compared to $2.2 million in the second quarter 2022. The interest rate cap matured during the second quarter of 2023. Merchant service revenue increased $110,000, or 23.5%, to $581,000 for the second quarter of 2023 from $471,000 in the second quarter of 2022. We recognized a $2.8 million loss on the sale of available for sale debt securities during the second quarter of 2022.

Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2023 decreased $1.4 million, or 3.4%, to $38.5 million from $39.8 million in the second quarter of 2022, and decreased $1.2 million, or 3.0%, on a linked quarter basis. Salary and benefit expense for the second quarter of 2023 decreased $1.9 million, or 9.4%, to $18.8 million from $20.7 million in the second quarter of 2022, and decreased $271,000, or 1.4%, on a linked quarter basis. The number of FTE employees increased by 37 to 577 at June 30, 2023 compared to 540 at June 30, 2022, and increased by 4 from the end of the first quarter of 2023. The increased costs from the modest headcount expansion were offset by a reduction in incentive expense. Equipment and occupancy expense increased $438,000, or 14.7%, to $3.4 million in the second quarter of 2023, from $3.0 million in the second quarter of 2022, and decreased $14,000, or 0.4% on a linked-quarter basis. The year-over-year increase is primarily attributed to new leases that commenced after the second quarter of 2022. Third party processing and other services expense decreased $147,000, or 2.3%, to $6.2 million in the second quarter of 2023, from $6.3 million in the second quarter of 2022, and decreased $1.1 million, or 14.9%, on a linked-quarter basis. The decrease year-over-year in third party processing also includes Federal Reserve Bank charges related to correspondent bank settlement activities. Professional services expense increased $253,000, or 19.1%, to $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2023, from $1.3 million in the second quarter of 2022. FDIC and other regulatory assessments increased $1.1 million to $2.2 million in the second quarter of 2023, from $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2022, and increased $725,000, or 47.8%, on a linked quarter basis. The FDIC increased the assessment rate by two basis points beginning in the first quarter of 2023. Other operating expenses for the second quarter of 2023 decreased $1.0 million, or 14.2%, to $6.2 million from $7.3 million in the second quarter of 2022, and decreased $478,000 on a linked-quarter basis. The efficiency ratio was 35.02% during the second quarter of 2023 compared to 31.64% during the second quarter of 2022 and 34.60% during the first quarter of 2023.

Income tax expense decreased $3.2 million, or 22.0%, to $11.2 million in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $14.4 million in the second quarter of 2022, mostly due to lower pretax net income. Our effective tax rate was 17.38% for the second quarter of 2023 compared to 18.83% for the second quarter of 2022. We recognized an aggregate of $3.8 million in credits during the second quarter of 2023 related to investments in tax credit partnerships, compared to $3.1 million during the second quarter of 2022. We recognized a reduction in provision for income taxes resulting from excess tax benefits from the exercise and vesting of stock options and restricted stock during the second quarters of 2023 and 2022 of $138,000 and $352,000, respectively.
