"We are very pleased with our fourth quarter and full year 2023 results," said Bart Caraway, Chairman, President, and CEO of Third Coast. "Despite headwinds that included a lackluster economy and persistent interest rate hikes, the Third Coast team worked diligently to boost profitability by managing expenses and enhancing operational efficiencies. These efforts resulted in record performance, particularly, a 79% increase in net income over 2022. Moreover, our assets, loans, and deposits grew 17%, 17% and 18%, respectively, over the prior year, creating positive operating leverage.

"Looking ahead, we look forward to the possibilities and opportunities awaiting us in 2024. We will continue to focus on innovation, amplify the passion of our lenders and staff to offer our customers exceptional banking services across the largest metropolitan areas in Texas, and seek to deliver shareholder value by achieving above average growth in book value," Mr. Caraway concluded.

Operating Results

Net Income and Earnings Per Share

Net income totaled $9.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $5.6 million for the third quarter of 2023 and $7.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. Net income available to common shareholders totaled $8.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $4.4 million for the third quarter of 2023 and $6.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. The quarter-over-quarter increase was primarily due to an increase in net interest income resulting from higher loan rates, a reduction in provision expense for credit losses for the quarter, and noninterest expense savings related to implementation of cost reduction plans in prior quarters. Dividends on our Series A Convertible Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock totaled $1.2 million for each of the quarters ended December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023. Basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share were $0.62 per share and $0.57 per share, respectively, in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $0.32 per share each, in the third quarter of 2023 and $0.45 per share and $0.44 per share, respectively, in the fourth quarter of 2022.

Net Interest Margin and Net Interest Income

The net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2023 was 3.61%, compared to 3.71% for the third quarter of 2023 and 3.75% for the fourth quarter of 2022. The yield on loans for the fourth quarter of 2023 was 7.75%, compared to 7.57% for the third quarter of 2023 and 6.27% for the fourth quarter of 2022. The increase in yield on loans during the fourth quarter of 2023 was primarily due to the increase in the Prime Rate in previous quarters.

Net interest income totaled $37.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, an increase of 5.8% from $35.3 million for the third quarter of 2023 and an increase of 16.1% from $32.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. Interest income totaled $77.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, an increase of 11.1% from $69.4 million for the third quarter of 2023 and an increase of 50.7% from $51.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. Interest and fees on loans increased $4.9 million, or 7.6%, compared to the third quarter of 2023, and increased $22.2 million, or 46.3%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. Interest expense was $39.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, an increase of $5.6 million, or 16.5%, from $34.1 million for the third quarter of 2023 and an increase of $20.7 million, or 109.1%, from $19.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. The increase in interest expense during the fourth quarter of 2023 was primarily due to interest-bearing deposit growth and increases in interest rates paid on interest-bearing deposit accounts.

Noninterest Income and Noninterest Expense

Noninterest income totaled $2.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $1.9 million for the third quarter of 2023 and $1.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. The increase in noninterest income from the third quarter of 2023 was primarily due to increased fees from derivative transactions and Small Business Investment Company income.

Noninterest expense totaled $26.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, down from $27.5 million for the third quarter of 2023 and up from $22.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. The year-over-year increase was primarily attributed to increased salary expenses, investment in new technology and software, increased professional fees related to growth and regulatory compliance, increased expenses related to four locations opened in 2022, and increased other expenses such as franchise taxes, fraud losses, and deposit related fees.

The efficiency ratio was 66.89% for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to 74.07% for the third quarter of 2023 and 66.74% for the fourth quarter of 2022.

Balance Sheet Highlights

Loan Portfolio and Composition

For the quarter ended December 31, 2023, gross loans increased to $3.64 billion, an increase of $78.8 million, or 2.2%, from $3.56 billion as of September 30, 2023, and an increase of $531.2 million, or 17.1%, from $3.11 billion as of December 31, 2022. Real estate and municipal loans accounted for most of the loan growth for the fourth quarter of 2023, with real estate loans increasing $76.3 million and municipal loans increasing $23.6 million from September 30, 2023.

Asset Quality

Non-performing loans were $17.3 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $16.4 million at September 30, 2023, and $12.3 million at December 31, 2022.

The provision for credit loss recorded for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $1.1 million and related to provisioning for new loans and commitments. The allowance for credit losses of $37.0 million represented 1.02% of the $3.64 billion in gross loans outstanding as of December 31, 2023.

As of December 31, 2023, the nonperforming loans to loans held for investment ratio remained low at 0.48%, compared to 0.46% as of September 30, 2023, and 0.39% as of December 31, 2022. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, and 2022, the Company recorded net charge-offs of $1.5 million and $708,000, respectively. On a full year basis, net charge-offs were $1.2 million and $1.1 million in 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Deposits and Composition

Deposits totaled $3.80 billion as of December 31, 2023, an increase of 4.3% from $3.65 billion as of September 30, 2023, and an increase of 17.5% from $3.24 billion as of December 31, 2022. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits decreased from $500.2 million as of September 30, 2023, to $459.6 million as of December 31, 2023 and represented 12.1% of total deposits as of December 31, 2023, compared to 13.7% of total deposits as of September 30, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, interest-bearing demand deposits increased $325.1 million, or 12.9%, and time deposits and savings accounts decreased $127.5 million, or 21.1%, and $639,000, or 2.5%, respectively, from September 30, 2023.

The average cost of deposits was 4.07% for the fourth quarter of 2023, representing a 34-basis point increase from the third quarter of 2023 and a 190-basis point increase from the fourth quarter of 2022 due primarily to interest-bearing demand deposit growth and the increase in rates paid on interest-bearing demand deposits.

Third Coast Bancshares, Inc. and Subsidiary
GAAP Reconciliation and Management's Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(unaudited)

Our accounting and reporting policies conform to GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) and the prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, we also evaluate our performance based on certain additional financial measures discussed in this earnings release as being non-GAAP financial measures. Specifically, we review Tangible Common Equity, Tangible Book Value Per Share, Tangible Common Equity to Tangible Assets, and Return on Average Tangible Common Equity for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We classify a financial measure as a non-GAAP financial measure if that financial measure excludes or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding or including amounts, that are not included or excluded, as the case may be, in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP as in effect from time to time in the United States in our statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows. Non-GAAP financial measures do not include operating and other statistical measures or ratios, or statistical measures calculated using exclusively financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

The non-GAAP financial measures that we discuss in this earnings release should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which we calculate the non-GAAP financial measures that we discuss in this earnings release may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names. It is important to understand how other banking organizations calculate their financial measures with names similar to the non-GAAP financial measures we have discussed in this earnings release when comparing such non-GAAP financial measures.

Management believes the following non-GAAP financial measures assist investors in understanding the financial condition of the company:

  • Tangible Common Equity. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for tangible common equity is total shareholders' equity. We believe that this measure is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in the relative changes from period to period of tangible common equity.

  • Tangible Book Value Per Share. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for tangible book value per share is book value per share. We believe that the tangible book value per share measure is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in changes from period to period in book value per share exclusive of changes in intangible assets. Goodwill and other intangible assets have the effect of increasing total book value while not increasing our tangible book value.

  • Tangible Common Equity to Tangible Assets. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for tangible common equity is total shareholders' equity, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for tangible assets is total assets, and the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for tangible common equity to tangible assets is total shareholders' equity to total assets. We believe that this measure is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in the relative changes from period to period of tangible common equity to tangible assets, each exclusive of changes in intangible assets. Goodwill and other intangible assets have the effect of increasing both total shareholders' equity and assets while not increasing our tangible common equity or tangible assets.

  • Return on Average Tangible Common Equity. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for average tangible common equity is average shareholders' equity, and the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for return on average tangible common equity is return on average common equity. We believe that this measure is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in the relative changes from period to period of return on average tangible common equity, exclusive of changes in intangible assets. Goodwill and other intangible assets have the effect of increasing average shareholders' equity while not increasing our tangible common equity.

The calculations of these non-GAAP financial measures are as follows:
