The increase in total assets from Decemberย 31, 2022 to Juneย 30, 2023 was primarily due to a $40.1 millionย increase in cash and cash equivalents and aย $136.1 millionย increase in total loans held for investment. The increase in cash and cash equivalents primarily resulted from net cash provided from financing and operating activities of $141.7 million and $25.6 million, respectively, partially offset by net cash used in investing activities of $127.2 million. The $136.1 million increase in total loans held for investment between Decemberย 31, 2022 and Juneย 30, 2023 was a result of $389.5 million in loan originations, partially offset by $253.4 million in loan payoffs and paydowns.
The increase in total liabilities from Decemberย 31, 2022 to Juneย 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to an increase in deposits ofย $147.7 million, largely due to increases in money market and time deposits over $250 thousand of $303.7 million and $48.0 million, respectively, partially offset by decreases in non-interest-bearing, interest checking, and savings deposits of $137.5 million, $32.0 million, and $21.8 million, respectively.
Total shareholdersโ equity increased by $16.3 million from $252.8 million at Decemberย 31, 2022 to $269.1 million at Juneย 30, 2023. The increase in total shareholdersโ equity was primarily a result of net income recognized of $25.9 million and a reduction of $0.5 million to accumulated other comprehensive loss, partially offset by $6.0 million in cash distributions paid during the period and a reduction to retained earnings of $4.5 million, net of tax effect, due to the adoption of Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (โASC 326โ).

Factors affecting interest income and yields
Interest income increased during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended Marchย 31, 2023, due to the following:
- Rates. The average yields on interest-earning assets were 5.35% and 5.18% for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023 and Marchย 31, 2023, respectively. The increase in yield period-over-period was primarily due to increased rates earned on the loan portfolio from new originations and repricing on variable-rate loans, combined with increases in yields earned on interest-earning deposits held at other banks, coinciding with the rise in the effective Federal Funds rate from 4.83% to 5.08% between Marchย 31, 2023 and Juneย 30, 2023.
- Volume. Average interest-earning assets increased by approximately $54.3 million period-over-period, primarily driven by new loan originations, most notably in commercial real estate loans, which drove increases in the average daily balances of loans for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023.
Interest income increased during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended Juneย 30, 2022, due to the following:
- Rates. The average yields on interest-earning assets were 5.35% and 3.93% for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023 and Juneย 30, 2022, respectively. The increase in yield period-over-period was primarily due to increased rates earned on the loan portfolio from new originations and repricing on variable-rate loans, combined with increases in yields earned on interest-earning deposits with banks, coinciding with the rise in the effective Federal Funds rate from 1.58% to 5.08% between Juneย 30, 2022 and Juneย 30, 2023.
- Volume. Average interest-earning assets increased by approximately $555.7 million period-over-period, primarily driven by new loan originations which drove increases in the average daily balances of loans for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, partially offset by a decrease in interest-earning deposits held at other banks.
Factors affecting interest expense and rates
Interest expense increased during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended Marchย 31, 2023, due to the following:
- Rates. The average costs of interest-bearing liabilities were 2.82% and 2.21% for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023 and Marchย 31, 2023, respectively. The increase in cost period-over-period was due to increases in the rates paid on interest-bearing deposit accounts, with the largest rate increases in interest-bearing demand accounts, coinciding with the rise in the effective Federal Funds rate from 4.83% to 5.08% between Marchย 31, 2023 and Juneย 30, 2023. The average cost of subordinated debt and other borrowings increased from 5.76% to 6.23% for the three months ended Marchย 31, 2023 and Juneย 30, 2023, respectively, as the cost of borrowing from the FHLB increased, coinciding with the aforementioned rise in the effective Federal Funds rate over the same period. There was no change in rates paid on the subordinated debt. Additionally, the cost of funds increased from 1.53% for the three months ended Marchย 31, 2023 to 2.04% for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023.
- Volume. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $115.7 million period-over-period, primarily driven by increases in average balances in money market and time accounts of $196.2 million and $69.9 million, respectively, partially offset by decreases in average balances in demand accounts of $89.2 million and in other borrowings of $45.5 million, due to decreased use of FHLB advances during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023.
Interest expense increased during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended Juneย 30, 2022, due to the following:
- Rates. The average costs of interest-bearing liabilities were 2.82% and 0.38% for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023 and Juneย 30, 2022, respectively. The increase in cost period-over-period was primarily due to increases in the rates paid on interest-bearing deposit accounts, coinciding with the rise in the effective Federal Funds rate from 1.58% to 5.08% between Juneย 30, 2022 and Juneย 30, 2023. The average cost of subordinated debt and other borrowings increased from 6.07% to 6.23% for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2022 and Juneย 30, 2023, respectively, as the weighted average rate on subordinated notes outstanding was higher for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023 than for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2022. Additionally, the cost of funds increased from 0.24% for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2022 to 2.04% for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023.
- Volume. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $625.8 million period-over-period, primarily driven by increases in average balances in money market and time accounts of $302.0 million and $195.9 million, respectively, in the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended Juneย 30, 2022.

Asset Quality
Allowance for Credit Losses - Loans
Beginning January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASC 326, which replaced the former โincurred lossโ model for recognizing credit losses with an โexpected lossโ model referred to as the Current Expected Credit Loss (โCECLโ) model. Utilizing CECL may have an impact on our allowance for credit losses going forward and result in a lack of comparability between 2022 and 2023 quarterly periods. Refer to information below on the provision for credit losses recorded during the six months ended Juneย 30, 2023.
At Juneย 30, 2023, the Companyโs allowance for credit losses was $34.0 million, as compared to $28.4 million at Decemberย 31, 2022. The $5.6 million increase in the allowance is due to a $5.3 million adjustment recorded in connection with the adoption of CECL and a $1.8 million provision for credit losses recorded during the six months ended Juneย 30, 2023, partially offset by net charge-offs of $1.5 million, attributable to the commercial secured and the consumer and other loan classes, during the same period.
The Companyโs ratio of nonperforming loans to loans held for investment remained consistent at 0.01% at Decemberย 31, 2022 and Juneย 30, 2023. The provision for credit losses recorded during the six months ended Juneย 30, 2023 was primarily related to loan growth, loan type mix, and updates in the macroeconomic environment. Loans designated as substandard decreased from $0.4 million to $0.3 million between Decemberย 31, 2022 and Juneย 30, 2023. There were no loans with doubtful risk grades at Juneย 30, 2023 or Decemberย 31, 2022.
A summary of the allowance for credit losses by loan class is as follows:

Gain on sale of loans. The increase in gain on sale of loans resulted primarily from an increase in the effective yield on loans sold, partially offset by a decline in the volume of loans sold. During the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, loans totaling $10.9 million were sold with an effective yield of 5.89% compared to the three months ended Marchย 31, 2023, when loans totaling $12.7 million were sold with an effective yield of 4.72%.
Loan-related fees. The increase in loan-related fees resulted primarily from the recognition of $0.1 million in swap referral fees during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023 compared to no swap fees recognized in the three months ended Marchย 31, 2023.
Other income. The increase in other income resulted primarily from a $1.3 million gain recorded for distributions received from venture-backed fund investments during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, which did not occur during the three months ended Marchย 31, 2023.

Gain on sale of loans. The decrease in gain on sale of loans related primarily to an overall decline in the volume of loans sold during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended Juneย 30, 2022. During the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, approximately $10.9 million of loans were sold with an effective yield of 5.89%, as compared to approximately $17.9 million of loans sold with an effective yield of 4.64% during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2022.
Loan-related fees. The decrease in loan-related fees was primarily a result of $0.1 million of swap referral fees recognized during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023 compared to $0.4 million of swap referral fees recognized during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2022.
FHLB stock dividends. The increase in FHLB stock dividends was primarily due to increased yields on dividends between Juneย 30, 2022 and Juneย 30, 2023, corresponding with the rise in the effective Federal Funds rate over the same period.
Other income. The increase in other income resulted primarily from a $1.3 million gain recorded for distributions received from venture-backed fund investments during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023 which did not occur during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2022.

Salaries and employee benefits. The decrease in salaries and employee benefits was primarily a result of a $0.7 million increase in loan origination costs related to production in the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended Marchย 31, 2023. This decline was partially offset by the following: (i) a $0.1 million net increase in salaries, insurance, and benefits as a result of a 2.21% increase in headcount and (ii) a $0.5 million increase in commissions related to production in the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended Marchย 31, 2023.
Data processing and software. The increase in software expenses was primarily due to: (i) increased usage of our digital banking platform; (ii) higher transaction volumes related to the increased number of loan and deposit accounts; and (iii) an increased number of licenses required for new users on our loan origination and documentation system.
Advertising and promotional. The increase related primarily to an overall increase in events attended and donations made, as more events were attended during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023 than the three months ended Marchย 31, 2023.
Other operating expenses. The increase in other operating expenses was primarily due to an overall increase in travel, conference fees, and professional membership fees during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended Marchย 31, 2023.

Salaries and employee benefits. The increase in salaries and employee benefits was primarily a result of: (i) a $0.6 million increase in salaries, insurance, and benefits as a result of a 7.56% increase in headcount during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended Juneย 30, 2022 and (ii) a $0.5 million decrease in loan origination costs due to lower loan production period-over-period. These increases were partially offset by $0.2 million of lower commission expenses due to lower loan production during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended Juneย 30, 2022.
Data processing and software. The increase in data processing and software was primarily due to: (i) increased usage of our digital banking platform; (ii) higher transaction volumes related to the increased number of loan and deposit accounts; and (iii) an increased number of licenses required for new users on our loan origination and documentation system.
FDIC insurance. The increase related primarily to a final rule adopted by the FDIC to increase initial base deposit insurance assessment rates for insured depository institutions by two basis points, beginning with the first quarterly assessment period of 2023. FDIC insurance also increased for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended Juneย 30, 2022, due to a $482.8 million increase in the assessment base period-over-period.
Advertising and promotional. The increase in advertising and promotional costs was primarily due to a $0.2 million increase in business development expenses incurred relating to an increased customer base and a 9.52% increase in the number of Business Development Officers from 21 as of Juneย 30, 2022 to 23 as of Juneย 30, 2023.
Other operating expenses. The increase in other operating expenses was primarily due to an overall increase in travel, conference fees, and professional membership fees during the three months Juneย 30, 2023, as compared to the three months ended Juneย 30, 2022.
Provision for Income Taxes
Three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, as compared to three months ended Marchย 31, 2023
Provision for income taxes for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023 decreased by $0.9 million, or 16.85%, to $4.4 million, as compared to $5.3 million for the three months ended Marchย 31, 2023. During the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, the Company recorded a $0.5 million state tax benefit relating to an overall reduction in the state tax blended rate for the Company since its inception as a C Corporation. The effective tax rate was 25.86% and 28.86% for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023 and Marchย 31, 2023, respectively.
Three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, as compared to three months ended Juneย 30, 2022
Provision for income taxes increased by $0.3 million, or 8.82%, to $4.4 million for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023, as compared to $4.1 million for the three months ended Juneย 30, 2022, primarily driven by an overall increase in pre-tax income period over period. This increase was partially offset by a $0.5 million state tax benefit recorded during the three months ended Juneย 30, 2023 relating to an overall reduction in the state tax blended rate since the Company's inception as a C Corporation. The effective tax rate was 25.86% and 29.07% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively.

Non-GAAP Reconciliation (Unaudited)
The Company uses financial information in its analysis of the Companyโs performance that is not in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (โGAAPโ). The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors that is supplementary to the Companyโs financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP. However, the Company acknowledges that its non-GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations. As such, investors should not view these disclosures as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, these non-GAAP measures are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP financial measures that other banking companies use. Other banking companies may use names similar to those the Company uses for the non-GAAP financial measures the Company discloses, but may calculate them differently. Investors should understand how the Company and other companies each calculate their non-GAAP financial measures when making comparisons.
Tangible shareholdersโ equity to tangible assets is defined as total equity less goodwill and other intangible assets, divided by total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is total shareholdersโ equity to total assets. We had no goodwill or other intangible assets at the end of any period indicated. As a result, tangible shareholdersโ equity to tangible assets is the same as total shareholdersโ equity to total assets at the end of each of the periods indicated.
Tangible book value per share is defined as total shareholdersโ equity less goodwill and other intangible assets, divided by the outstanding number of common shares at the end of the period. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is book value per share. We had no goodwill or other intangible assets at the end of any period indicated. As a result, tangible book value per share is the same as book value per share at the end of each of the periods indicated.

Pre-tax, pre-provision income is defined as pre-tax income plus provision for credit losses. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is pre-tax income.
