    In announcing these results, Chief Executive Officer Tim Laney shared, “We are pleased to deliver record quarterly earnings of $1.06 per diluted share and a record return on average tangible common equity of 20.86%. Our teams maintained excellent credit quality with annualized net charge-offs of just one basis point, and a record low non-performing loans ratio of 0.13%. Our granular and relationship-focused deposit base continues to generate high-quality lower-cost funding. We believe our strong capital, ample liquidity, and relationship-based banking model positions us to continue to serve our clients and communities in any economic environment.”

    Addressing recent banking industry liquidity stress, Mr. Laney added, “We have built a granular and relationship-focused deposit base and our investment securities portfolio has a short average duration and is primarily comprised of government guaranteed mortgage-back securities. As previously reported, approximately 70% of our deposits are FDIC insured.”

    Mr. Laney added, “Our recently announced acquisition of Cambr provides us with a truly unique source of liquidity and further diversifies our funding and fee income capabilities. To that end, NBH has already added $500 million of deposits to its balance sheet since the deal closing on April 3rd. The remaining program balances continue to be swept to Cambr bank partners. We are pleased to have the ability to significantly grow FDIC insured deposits with little incremental overhead.”

    First Quarter 2023 Results
    (All comparisons refer to the fourth quarter of 2022, except as noted)

    Net income increased $23.6 million to a record $40.3 million, or $1.06 per diluted share, compared to net income of $16.7 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, during the fourth quarter of 2022. Fully taxable equivalent pre-provision net revenue increased $9.7 million to $52.7 million during the first quarter, compared to pre-provision net revenue of $43.0 million. The return on average tangible assets totaled a record 1.80%, compared to a return of 0.77% during the fourth quarter, and the return on average tangible common equity totaled a record 20.86%, compared to a fourth quarter return of 9.17%.

    The fourth quarter included $23.2 million of non-recurring acquisition-related expenses, including $16.3 million of CECL Day 1 provision expense. Adjusting for these expenses, net income increased $5.7 million during the first quarter, or 67% annualized, and fully taxable equivalent pre-provision net revenue increased $2.9 million, or 23.4% annualized. The adjusted return on average tangible assets increased 25 basis points, and the adjusted return on average tangible common equity increased 249 basis points.

    Net Interest Income
    Fully taxable equivalent net interest income totaled $96.3 million, compared to $96.5 million in the prior quarter, as an increase in daily interest income was slightly offset by two fewer days. The fully taxable equivalent net interest margin remained consistent at 4.39% as an increase in cost of funds was offset by an increase in earning asset yields. Average earning assets increased $173.3 million, primarily driven by average originated loan growth. The cost of funds totaled 0.90%, compared to 0.43% during the fourth quarter.

    Loans
    Total loans increased $124.8 million or 7.0% annualized to a record $7.3 billion at March 31, 2023. We generated quarterly loan fundings totaling $393.9 million with a weighted average new loan origination rate of 7.5%.

    Asset Quality and Provision for Credit Losses
    The Company recorded $0.9 million of provision expense during the quarter to support the quarter’s loan growth. Annualized net charge-offs decreased three basis points to 0.01% of average total loans during the first quarter. Non-performing loans (comprised of non-accrual loans and non-accrual TDMs) decreased 10 basis points to 0.13% of total loans, and non-performing assets decreased 10 basis points to 0.18% of total loans and OREO. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans totaled 1.23%, compared to 1.24% at December 31, 2022.

    Deposits
    We maintain a granular and well diversified deposit base with no exposure to venture capital or crypto deposits. Average total deposits were $7.7 billion during the first quarter 2023, compared to $8.0 billion during the fourth quarter 2022. The loan to deposit ratio was 96.9% at March 31, 2023. Average transaction deposits (defined as total deposits less time deposits) totaled $6.8 billion, compared to $7.1 billion, and average non-interest bearing demand deposits totaled $3.0 billion, compared to $3.1 billion for the fourth quarter. The mix of transaction deposits to total deposits was 87.1% compared to 88.9% at December 31, 2022.

    Non-Interest Income
    Non-interest income increased $0.5 million during the first quarter to $14.7 million. Mortgage banking income increased $0.5 million compared to the prior quarter, and other non-interest income increased $0.6 million. These increases were partially offset by a $0.6 million decrease in service charges and bank card fees due to seasonality.

    Non-Interest Expense
    Non-interest expense totaled $58.3 million, a decrease of $9.4 million from the prior quarter. Excluding the impact of $6.8 million of non-recurring acquisition-related expenses in the fourth quarter, non-interest expense decreased $2.6 million. Salaries and benefits decreased $2.5 million due to payroll tax credits realized in the first quarter 2023, and professional fees decreased $1.2 million. Partially offsetting these decreases was a $1.1 million increase in other non-interest expense largely due to higher FDIC deposit insurance expense as a result of an increase in the FDIC assessment rate effective January 2023.

    The efficiency ratio improved 875 basis points to 53.2% at March 31, 2023, compared to 62.0% at December 31, 2022. The fully taxable equivalent efficiency ratio improved 246 basis points to 51.3% at March 31, 2023, adjusting for intangible asset amortization and non-recurring acquisition-related expenses in the prior quarter.

    Income tax expense totaled $10.1 million during the first quarter, compared to $3.0 million in the prior quarter. The increase in income tax expense was due to an increase in pre-tax income. The effective tax rate was 20.0% and 15.0% for the first and fourth quarters, respectively.

    Capital
    Capital ratios continue to be strong and in excess of federal bank regulatory agency “well capitalized” thresholds. The Tier 1 leverage ratio totaled 9.46% at March 31, 2023, and the common equity tier 1 capital ratio totaled 11.32% at March 31, 2023. Shareholders’ equity totaled $1.1 billion at March 31, 2023 increasing $41.5 million largely due to higher retained earnings and a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

    Common book value per share increased $1.08 to $30.12 at March 31, 2023. Tangible common book value per share increased $1.13 to $21.76 at March 31, 2023 as this quarter’s earnings outpaced the quarterly dividend and benefitted from a $0.25 per share decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

    Year-Over-Year Review
    (All comparisons refer to the first quarter 2022, except as noted)

    Net income totaled $40.3 million or $1.06 per diluted share, compared to $18.4 million or $0.60 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2022. The quarter’s increase over the same period prior year was driven by strong net interest income due to increases in the Federal Reserve’s interest rates and strong organic and acquired loan growth. Fully taxable equivalent pre-provision net revenue increased $29.7 million, or 129.6%, to $52.7 million. The return on average tangible assets was 1.80%, compared to 1.07% in the same period prior year, and the return on average tangible common equity was 20.86%, compared to 10.31%.

    Fully taxable equivalent net interest income totaled $96.3 million, an increase of $48.3 million or 100.7%. Average earning assets increased $2.2 billion, or 32.8%, including average originated loan growth of $1.2 billion and average acquired loan growth of $1.6 billion. The fully taxable equivalent net interest margin widened 149 basis points to 4.39%, benefitting from a 216 basis point increase in earning asset yields to 5.24%. Total interest bearing liabilities increased $1.5 billion to $5.4 billion at March 31, 2023, and the cost of funds totaled 0.90%, compared to 0.19% in the same period prior year.

    Loans outstanding totaled $7.3 billion, increasing $2.7 billion or 57.1%, and included $1.7 billion of loans acquired through the Rock Canyon Bank and Bank of Jackson Hole acquisitions in 2022. New loan fundings over the trailing 12 months totaled $2.0 billion, led by commercial loan fundings of $1.1 billion.  

    The Company recorded $0.9 million of provision expense for credit loss during the first quarter 2023, compared to a provision release of $0.3 million in the same period prior year. The current quarter’s provision expense was driven by loan growth. Annualized net charge-offs decreased four basis points to 0.01% of average total loans during the first quarter 2023. Non-performing loans to total loans improved 11 basis points to 0.13%, and non-performing assets to total loans and OREO improved 17 basis points to 0.18% at March 31, 2023. The allowance for credit losses totaled 1.23% of total loans, compared to 1.04% at March 31, 2022.

    Average total deposits increased $1.5 billion or 24.2% to $7.7 billion, primarily due to the 2022 acquisitions. Average transaction deposits increased $1.4 billion or 26.1%, and average non-interest bearing demand deposits increased $570.4 million or 23.4%. The mix of transaction deposits to total deposits totaled 87.1%, compared to 87.4% at March 31, 2022, and the mix of non-interest bearing demand deposits to total deposits totaled 38.5%, compared to 40.1% at March 31, 2022.

    Non-interest income totaled $14.7 million, a decrease of $4.4 million or 23.0%, largely driven by $6.5 million of lower mortgage banking income due to lower refinance activity, as well as competition driving tighter gain on sale margins. Service charges and bank card fees increased a combined $0.9 million compared to the same period prior year. Other non-interest income increased $1.9 million and included $0.5 million of trust income.

    Non-interest expense totaled $58.3 million, an increase of $14.2 million, or 32.2%, largely driven by an increase in core operating expenses driven by our 2022 acquisitions. Included in other non-interest expense is $1.7 million higher FDIC deposit insurance expense as a result of our recent acquisitions and an increase in the FDIC assessment rate effective January 2023.

    Income tax expense totaled $10.1 million, an increase of $6.5 million from the first quarter last year, driven by higher pre-tax income.

    About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
    Certain of the financial measures and ratios we present, including “tangible assets,” “return on average tangible assets,” “tangible common equity,” “return on average tangible common equity,” “tangible common book value per share,” “tangible common book value, excluding accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax,” “tangible common book value per share, excluding accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax,” “tangible common equity to tangible assets,” “non-interest expense adjusted for CDI and WMI asset amortization and acquisition-related expenses,” “non-interest expense adjusted for acquisition-related expenses,” “efficiency ratio adjusted for CDI and WMI amortization and acquisition-related expenses,” “adjusted net income,” “adjusted earnings per share – diluted,” “net income adjusted for the impact of CDI and WMI amortization expense and acquisition-related expenses, after tax,” “net income excluding the impact of CDI and WMI amortization expense, after tax,” “adjusted return on average tangible assets,” “adjusted return on average tangible common equity,” “pre-provision net revenue,” “pre-provision net revenue adjusted for acquisition-related expenses,” and “fully taxable equivalent” metrics, are supplemental measures that are not required by, or are not presented in accordance with, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We refer to these financial measures and ratios as “non-GAAP financial measures.” We consider the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial and operational decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain expenditures or assets that we believe are not indicative of our primary business operating results or by presenting certain metrics on a fully taxable equivalent basis. We believe that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods.

    These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and you should not rely on non-GAAP financial measures alone as measures of our performance. The non-GAAP financial measures we present may differ from non-GAAP financial measures used by our peers or other companies. We compensate for these limitations by providing the equivalent GAAP measures whenever we present the non-GAAP financial measures and by including a reconciliation of the impact of the components adjusted for in the non-GAAP financial measure so that both measures and the individual components may be considered when analyzing our performance.

    A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures is included at the end of the financial statement tables.
