Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2021

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, was $54.2 million, an increase of $1.6 million, or 3.1%, compared to the linked quarter. The increase was primarily due to a $1.2 million increase in interest income earned on total investment securities and a $1.2 million increase in interest income earned on commercial real estate loans, offset by decreases of $873,000 and $577,000 in interest earned on residential real estate loans and mortgage warehouse lines of credit, respectively. The increase in interest income earned on total securities was primarily due to a $371.4 million increase in the average balance of total securities caused by a shift in balance sheet composition. The increase in interest income earned on commercial real estate loans was primarily driven by a $106.3 million increase in the average balance of total commercial real estate loans. The decrease in interest earned on residential real estate loans was primarily due to a decline in interest rates, which contributed $595,000 to the $873,000 decline in interest income on residential real estate loans. The decrease in interest earned on mortgage warehouse lines of credit was caused primarily by a decrease of $82.9 million in average mortgage warehouse lines of credit loan balances, as the outstanding balances of mortgage warehouse lines of credit continued to normalize.

The yield earned on interest-earning assets for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, was 3.35%, an increase of two basis points compared to the linked quarter and a decrease of 12 basis points compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2020. Excluding PPP loans, the yield earned on interest-earning assets was 3.21%, a four basis point decrease compared to the linked quarter. The rate paid on total interest-bearing liabilities for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, was 0.51%, representing a two basis point decrease from the linked quarter, and a 13 basis point decrease compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2020.

The fully tax-equivalent net interest margin ("NIM") was 3.06% for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, a four basis point increase and a one basis point decrease from the linked quarter and the quarter ended December 31, 2020, respectively. Excluding PPP loans, the fully tax-equivalent NIM was 2.92%, a two basis point decrease and a 25 basis point decrease from the linked quarter and the quarter ended December 31, 2020, respectively. The decrease in fully tax-equivalent NIM, excluding PPP loans, was primarily due to a shift in balance sheet composition as PPP loan balances continued to be forgiven by the Small Business Administration ("SBA") and mortgage warehouse loan volume continued to normalize, along with the increase in deposits, causing a surge in liquidity which was primarily invested in comparatively lower-yielding securities.

___________________________
(1) Please see the Loan Data schedule at the back of this document for additional information.

The Company recorded a credit loss provision net benefit of $2.6 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to a credit loss provision net benefit of $3.9 million recorded during the linked quarter. The release of credit loss provision reflects the continued improvement in forecasted economic conditions at December 31, 2021, and stable credit loss metrics. While economic forecasts have improved, uncertainty remains due to risks related to the resurgence or lingering effects of COVID-19, rising inflation and labor pressures, as well as continued global supply-chain disruptions.

Credit metrics remained stable for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to the linked quarter. The allowance for loan credit losses to nonperforming LHFI decreased to 259.35% at December 31, 2021, compared to 284.86% at September 30, 2021. The Company's nonperforming LHFI and quarterly net charge-offs were stable, compared to the linked quarter. Classified loans declined $6.2 million at December 31, 2021, compared to September 30, 2021, and represented 1.35% of LHFI, excluding PPP loans, at December 31, 2021, compared to 1.52% at September 30, 2021.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, was $16.7 million, an increase of $778,000, or 4.9%, from the linked quarter. The increase from the linked quarter was primarily driven by an increase of $5.4 million in other noninterest income, offset by decreases of $3.0 million, $1.0 million, and $625,000 in limited partnership investment income, swap fee income, and insurance commission and fee income, respectively.

The $5.4 million increase in other noninterest income was primarily due to the Company's acquisition of the remaining 62% equity interest in The Lincoln Agency. The Company remeasured the previously held equity method investment to its fair value, resulting in recognition of a gain of $5.2 million in other noninterest income. The $3.0 million decrease in limited partnership investment income was primarily due to a $3.1 million valuation increase of the investments in two of the limited partnership funds during the quarter ended September 30, 2021, with no such increase during the current quarter. The $1.0 million decrease in swap fee income was primarily driven by $727,000 in swap commission fees earned on one new swap contract executed during the quarter ended September 30, 2021, combined with an early termination fee incurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2021. To benefit future income, the Company elected to unwind a one-way swap during the quarter ended December 31, 2021, and paid an early termination fee of $296,000. The decrease in insurance commission and fee income was caused by the seasonality of policy renewals.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, was $40.3 million, an increase of $1.2 million, compared to the linked quarter. This increase was primarily driven by an increase of $1.1 million in salaries and employee benefit expenses, primarily due to a $893,000 increase in our incentive compensation bonus during the quarter ended December 31, 2021, primarily due to the growth in loan production.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate was 14.6% during the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to 18.8% during the linked quarter and 20.2% during the quarter ended December 31, 2020. The decline was primarily due the tax impact of the exercise of stock options and vesting of stock awards during the period.

Financial Condition

Loans

  • Total LHFI increased $44.0 million compared to the linked quarter and decreased $493.4 million compared to December 31, 2020.
  • Total LHFI at December 31, 2021, were $4.50 billion, excluding PPP and mortgage warehouse lines of credit, reflecting a $241.5 million, or 5.7% increase, compared to the linked quarter and a $404.2 million, or 9.9% increase, compared to December 31, 2020.
  • PPP loans, net of deferred fees and costs, totaled $105.8 million at December 31, 2021, a decrease of $111.2 million compared to the linked quarter and a decrease of $440.8 million compared to December 31, 2020. Net deferred loan fees and costs on PPP loans were $3.0 million, $6.3 million, and $9.6 million, at December 31, 2021, September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020, respectively.
  • Mortgage warehouse lines of credit totaled $627.1 million at December 31, 2021, a decrease of $86.3 million compared to the linked quarter and a decrease of $456.9 million compared to December 31, 2020, falling within the expected range of 10% to 12% of total LHFI by year-end 2021.
  • Average LHFI decreased $56.1 million, compared to the linked quarter, and decreased $375.6 million compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2020.
  • Average LHFI, excluding PPP and mortgage warehouse lines of credit, increased $144.0 million, compared to the linked quarter, and increased $333.3 million compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2020.

Total LHFI at December 31, 2021, were $5.23 billion, reflecting an increase of 0.8%, compared to the linked quarter and a decrease of 8.6%, compared to December 31, 2020. The increase in LHFI compared to the linked quarter, was primarily driven by increases in commercial and industrial loans excluding PPP and commercial real estate loans, offset by decreases in PPP loans and mortgage warehouse lines of credit, respectively. PPP outstanding loan balances continued to decline primarily through the SBA's forgiveness process and outstanding balances of mortgage warehouse lines of credit continued to normalize during the current period.

Securities

  • Total securities remained relatively unchanged compared to the linked quarter and increased $480.6 million, compared to December 31, 2020.
  • Average securities increased $371.4 million, compared to the linked quarter, and increased $550.7 million compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2020.

Total securities at December 31, 2021, were $1.53 billion, decreasing slightly from the linked quarter, and increasing 45.6%, compared to December 31, 2020. The increase in securities during 2021 reflects a shift in balance sheet composition as liquidity surged due to declines in PPP and mortgage warehouse lines of credit loan balances, as a result of the SBA's forgiveness process and the normalization of mortgage warehouse lines of credit balances, along with the increase in deposits.

Goodwill & Intangibles

On December 31, 2021, the Company acquired the remaining 62% equity interest in The Lincoln Agency for $5.3 million in cash and $5.3 million in Company common stock, bringing the Company's total ownership to 100%. Additionally, the Company acquired substantially all assets of the Pulley-White Insurance Agency, Inc. on December 31, 2021, for $2.2 million in cash and $2.2 million in Company common stock.

  • The Company recognized a $14.1 million and $7.6 million increase, respectively, in intangible assets and goodwill in conjunction with the acquisitions.

Deposits

  • Total deposits increased $411.9 million and $819.4 million compared to the linked quarter and December 31, 2020, respectively.
  • Interest-bearing deposits grew $263.4 million, or 7.3%, compared to September 30, 2021, and $385.1 million, or 11.1%, compared to December 31, 2020.
  • Noninterest-bearing deposits grew $183.4 million, or 9.3%, compared to September 30, 2021, and $555.9 million, or 34.6%, compared to December 31, 2020.

Business depositors drove increases of $168.1 million and $142.2 million in noninterest-bearing demand and money market deposits compared to the linked quarter. Consumer depositors drove an additional increase of $104.6 million in total deposits compared to the linked quarter. Business depositors drove an increase of $890.8 million in total deposits compared to December 31, 2020.

For the quarter ended December 31, 2021, average noninterest-bearing deposits as a percentage of total average deposits were 33.6%, compared to 31.7% for the linked quarter, and 28.7% for the quarter ended December 31, 2020.

Borrowings

  • Average Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances and other borrowings for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, increased by $3.8 million or 1.4%, compared to the linked quarter, and decreased by $79.8 million or 23.0%, compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2020.

The changes in average FHLB advances and other borrowings from both the linked quarter and from the quarter ended December 31, 2020, were driven by short-term borrowing variations during the respective periods as a result of liquidity management.

Stockholder's Equity

Stockholders' equity was $730.2 million at December 31, 2021, an increase of $24.5 million compared to $705.7 million at September 30, 2021, and an increase of $83.1 million compared to $647.2 million at December 31, 2020. The increase from the linked quarter was primarily due to net income for the quarter of $28.3 million, combined with a $7.5 million stock issuance for the insurance agency acquisitions, discussed earlier. These increases were partially offset by other comprehensive loss, net of tax and the quarterly dividend declared during the quarter ended December 31, 2021. The increase from December 31, 2020, was primarily driven by net income retained during the intervening period, and partially offset by the other comprehensive loss, net of tax.

____________________________
(1) Past due LHFI are defined as loans 30 days or more past due. There were $266,000 of past due PPP loans at September 30, 2021, that are fully guaranteed by the SBA. There were no past due PPP loans for the other disclosed quarterly period end dates included in this release.
(2) The allowance for loan credit losses ("ACL") to total LHFI excluding PPP and warehouse loans is calculated by excluding the ACL for warehouse loans from the numerator and excluding the PPP and warehouse loans from the denominator. Due to their low-risk profile, mortgage warehouse loans require a disproportionately low allocation of the allowance for loan credit losses.

The GNMA repurchase asset and liability are recorded as equal offsetting amounts in the consolidated balance sheets, with the asset included in Loans held for sale and the liability included in FHLB advances and other borrowings.
(2) In order to present pre-tax income and resulting yields on tax-exempt investments comparable to those on taxable investments, a tax-equivalent adjustment has been computed. This adjustment also includes income tax credits received on Qualified School Construction Bonds.
(3) Net interest margin, excluding PPP loans, fully tax-equivalent is calculated by removing average PPP loans from average interest-earning assets, and removing the associated interest income (net of 35 basis points assumed cost of funds on average PPP loan balances) from net interest income.
