    Loans and Leases

    At December 31, 2023, the total loan and lease portfolio was $9.02 billion, 2.8% above its level at September 30, 2023 and 14.2% above its level at December 31, 2022. This growth was driven by strong origination volumes. Compared to the third quarter of 2023, loans and leases held for investment increased $431.2 million, or 5.3%, to $8.63 billion while loans held for sale decreased $185.6 million, or 32.4%, to $387.0 million. Average loans and leases were $8.84 billion during the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $8.58 billion during the third quarter of 2023.

    The total loan and lease portfolio at December 31, 2023, and September 30, 2023 was comprised of 37.8% and 39.0% of guaranteed loans and leases, respectively.

    Loan and lease originations totaled $981.7 million during the fourth quarter of 2023, a decrease of $91.6 million, or 8.5%, from the third quarter of 2023.

    Deposits

    Total deposits increased to $10.28 billion at December 31, 2023, an increase of $271.4 million compared to September 30, 2023, and an increase of $1.39 billion compared to December 31, 2022. The increase in total deposits from the prior periods provides support for the growth in the loan and lease portfolio.

    Average total interest-bearing deposits for the fourth quarter of 2023 increased $137.5 million, or 1.4%, to $9.84 billion, compared to $9.70 billion for the third quarter of 2023. The ratio of average total loans and leases to average interest-bearing deposits was 89.9% for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to 88.5% for the third quarter of 2023.

    Borrowings

    Borrowings totaled $23.4 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $25.8 million and $83.2 million at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The decrease from the fourth quarter of 2022 was principally due to paying off the Company’s Fed Funds line of credit.

    Net Interest Income

    Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2023 increased to $89.6 million compared to $89.4 million for the third quarter of 2023 and $85.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2022.

    The net interest margin for the fourth and third quarters of 2023 was 3.32% and 3.37%, respectively, a decrease of 5 basis points quarter over quarter. This decrease was principally the result of growth in loan yields being outpaced by the cost of deposits. The primary mitigant to loan yields in the fourth quarter of 2023 arose from the accelerated recognition of a large deferred expense, as a result of early payoffs on two loans, which was recognized as a reduction to interest income. The increase in cost of deposits was primarily driven by a large certificate of deposit maturity event in the fourth quarter renewing at higher current market rates. During the fourth quarter of 2023, the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased by 18 basis points while the average yield on interest-earning assets increased by 11 basis points.

    The increase in net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to the fourth quarter of 2022 was driven by growth in the total loan and lease portfolio. Partially mitigating this increase was a decrease in the net interest margin arising from an increase in interest-bearing liabilities combined with average cost of funds outpacing the average yield on interest-earning assets.

    Noninterest Income

    Noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2023 decreased to $30.1 million compared to $37.9 million for the third quarter of 2023 and increased from $19.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. The primary drivers behind changes in noninterest income are outlined below.

    The loan servicing asset revaluation resulted in a loss of $4.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to a gain of $11.3 million for the third quarter of 2023 and loss of $5.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. The $15.3 million quarter over quarter negative change in servicing asset revaluation was principally due to the third quarter of 2023 one-time positive adjustment of $13.7 million, arising from the Company’s change in valuation techniques used to estimate the fair value of servicing rights.

    Net gains on sales of loans was $12.9 million, a $216 thousand increase compared to the third quarter of 2023 and a $5.5 million increase compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. The increase in net gains on sales of loans compared to the fourth quarter of 2022 was largely the result of a higher volume of loan sales. The average guaranteed loan sale premium was stable for all compared periods at 105% for the fourth quarter of 2023, third quarter of 2023 and fourth quarter of 2022. The volume of guaranteed loans sold was $239.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $225.6 million sold in the third quarter of 2023 and $144.3 million sold in the fourth quarter of 2022.

    Other noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2023 totaled $8.6 million compared to $3.5 million for the third quarter of 2023 and $5.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. The increase in noninterest income for both comparative periods was principally driven by a $4.4 million gain arising from the sale of one of the Company’s aircraft in the fourth quarter of 2023.

    Noninterest Expense

    Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2023 totaled $93.2 million compared to $74.3 million for the third quarter of 2023 and $84.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. The primary drivers in the noninterest expense changes are outlined below.

    Salaries and employee benefits for the fourth quarter of 2023 increased $1.3 million compared to the third quarter of 2023 and increased $1.7 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. Included in the fourth quarter of 2023 was a special employee bonus of $4.5 million. Excluding this special bonus, total salaries and employee benefits for the fourth quarter of 2023 decreased $3.2 million compared to the third quarter of 2023 and decreased $2.8 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2022.

    The Company incurred impairment charges related to a new renewable energy tax credit investment transaction of $14.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to none in the third quarter of 2023 and $8.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Investments of this type generate a return primarily through the realization of income tax credits and other benefits; accordingly, impairment of the investment amount is recognized in conjunction with the realization of related tax benefits. These investments generated federal investment tax credits in the fourth quarters of 2023 and 2022 of $16.4 million and $10.3 million, respectively, which are reflected in the Company’s effective tax rate for each respective year. Investments of this nature are part of the Company’s ongoing initiative to promote renewable energy sources.

    Asset Quality

    During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company recognized net charge-offs for loans carried at historical cost of $4.4 million compared to $9.1 million in the third quarter of 2023 and $1.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Net charge-off activity in the fourth quarter of 2023 was largely related to four loans spread across three verticals. Net charge-offs as a percentage of average held for investment loans and leases carried at historical cost, annualized, for the quarters ended December 31, 2023, September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, was 0.22%, 0.48% and 0.09%, respectively. Net charge-offs as a percentage of total average held for investment loans and leases carried at historical cost for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, were 0.29% and 0.14%, respectively.

    Unguaranteed nonperforming (nonaccrual) loans and leases, excluding $7.2 million and $6.5 million accounted for under the fair value option at December 31, 2023, and September 30, 2023, respectively, increased to $39.3 million, or 0.48% of loans and leases held for investment which are carried at historical cost, at December 31, 2023, compared to $33.3 million, or 0.43%, at September 30, 2023.

    Provision for Loan and Lease Credit Losses

    The provision for loan and lease credit losses for the fourth quarter of 2023 totaled $9.0 million compared to $10.3 million for the third quarter of 2023 and $19.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. The lower provision expense in the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to the fourth quarter of 2022 was primarily the result of a decline in reserves related to loans individually evaluated for impairment.

    The allowance for credit losses on loans and leases totaled $125.8 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $121.3 million at September 30, 2023. The allowance for credit losses on loans and leases as a percentage of total loans and leases held for investment carried at historical cost was 1.53% and 1.56% at December 31, 2023, and September 30, 2023, respectively.

    Income Tax

    Income tax expense (benefit) and related effective tax rate was $1.3 million and 7.6% for the fourth quarter of 2023, $3.0 million and 6.9% for the third quarter of 2023, and $(1.1) million and (149.9)% for the fourth quarter of 2022, respectively. The higher level of income tax expense for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to the fourth quarter of 2022 was primarily the result of a higher level of pretax income combined with higher levels of investment tax credits related to renewable energy investment transactions in the fourth quarter of 2023 in conjunction with recognition of a research credit recognized during the fourth quarter of 2022.

    This press release presents the non-GAAP financial measures. The adjustments to reconcile from the non-GAAP financial measures to the applicable GAAP financial measure are included where applicable in financial results presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company considers these adjustments to be relevant to ongoing operating results. The Company believes that excluding the amounts associated with these adjustments to present the non-GAAP financial measures provides a meaningful base for period-to-period comparisons, which will assist regulators, investors, and analysts in analyzing the operating results or financial position of the Company. The non-GAAP financial measures are used by management to assess the performance of the Company’s business for presentations of Company performance to investors, and for other reasons as may be requested by investors and analysts. The Company further believes that presenting the non-GAAP financial measures will permit investors and analysts to assess the performance of the Company on the same basis as that applied by management. Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by shareholders to evaluate a company, they have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results reported under GAAP.
