Net Income Walk 7 Net Income Drivers Net interest income Net interest income up $2.3 million, driven by higher balances and yields on both loans and cash balances (see page 9) Provision for credit losses The PCL on credit was higher primarily driven by the partial charge-off of an office loan and a charge- off related to the write-down of a CRE multi-family construction loan that was sold. Noninterest income Noninterest income down $3.5 million primarily on market value adjustments on our derivative loan book due to lower interest rates. Noninterest expense* Noninterest expense, excluding FDIC insurance fees, was down $1.6 million. *Please refer to Non-GAAP reconciliation and footnotes in the appendices.


 
Performance Measures 8 *Please refer to the Non-GAAP reconciliation and footnotes in the appendices. PPNR/Average Assets and returns are annualized. See Non-GAAP reconciliation for calculation of annualized PPNR. For the periods above, return on average common equity was 13.57% (2022Q4), 7.92% (2023Q1), 9.24% (2023Q2), 8.80% (2023Q3) and 6.48% (2023Q4); and common equity to assets was 11.02% (2022Q4), 11.20% (2023Q1), 11.05% (2023Q2), 10.89% (2023Q3( and 10.92% (2023Q4)


 
Net Interest Income 9


 
10 Yield/Cost Components *For betas, the denominator is the change in the Average Effective Federal Funds rate for the quarter, starting with 2022 Q1. **Beginning in the second quarter of 2023, the Company revised its cost of funds methodology to use a daily average calculation where interest expense on interest bearing liabilities is divided by average interest-bearing liabilities and average noninterest bearing deposits. Previously, the Company calculated the cost of funds as the difference between yield on earning assets and net interest margin. Prior periods have been conformed to the current presentation.


 
Funding 11 Funding Improvement Deposits Deposits were up $432 million for the quarter, primarily driven by growth in noninterest bearing demand and money market accounts. Brokered deposits were down $38 million and were 27.0% of deposits. Trend of declining deposits reversed after the first quarter of 2023 The long-term strategy for deposits is to increase core deposits and reduce reliance on brokered funding. Borrowings BTFP borrowings, which have a more attractive rate and collateral requirements, remained unchanged.

27 Non-GAAP Reconciliation (unaudited) Tangible common equity to tangible assets (the "tangible common equity ratio"), tangible book value per common share, tangible book value per common share excluding accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”), and the return on average tangible common equity are non-GAAP financial measures derived from GAAP based amounts. The Company calculates the tangible common equity ratio by excluding the balance of intangible assets from common shareholders' equity and dividing by tangible assets. The Company calculates tangible book value per common share by dividing tangible common equity by common shares outstanding, as compared to book value per common share, which the Company calculates by dividing common shareholders' equity by common shares outstanding; to calculate the tangible book value per common share excluding the AOCI, tangible common equity is reduced by the loss on the AOCI before dividing by common shares outstanding. The Company calculates the annualized return on average tangible common equity ratio by dividing net income available to common shareholders by average tangible common equity which is calculated by excluding the average balance of intangible assets from the average common shareholders’ equity. The Company considers this information important to shareholders as tangible equity is a measure that is consistent with the calculation of capital for bank regulatory purposes, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based ratios and as such is useful for investors, regulators, management and others to evaluate capital adequacy and to compare against other financial institutions. The above table provides reconciliation of these financial measures defined by GAAP with non-GAAP financial measures. Efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure calculated by dividing GAAP non-interest expense by the sum of GAAP net interest income and GAAP non-interest (loss) income. Management believes that reporting the non-GAAP efficiency ratio more closely measures its effectiveness of controlling operational activities. The table above shows the calculation of the efficiency ratio from these GAAP measures. Pre-provision net revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from GAAP based amounts. The Company calculates PPNR by subtracting noninterest expenses from the sum of net interest income and noninterest income. PPNR to Average Assets is calculated by dividing the PPNR amount by average assets to obtain a percentage. The Company considers this information important to shareholders because it illustrates revenue excluding the impact of provisions and reversals to the allowance for credit losses on loans. The table above provides a reconciliation of PPNR and PPNR to Average Assets to the nearest GAAP measure.
