Our consistent return profile increased tangible book value per share 25% on an annualized basis from the linked quarter, and 20% over the prior year’s third quarter.

Highlights

• Earnings - Net income in the third quarter 2024 was $50.6 million, an increase of $5.1 million and $5.9 million compared to the linked and prior year quarters, respectively. Earnings per diluted common share for the third quarter 2024 was $1.32, compared to $1.19 and $1.17 for the linked and prior year quarters, respectively. Adjusted diluted earnings per common share¹ was $1.29 for the third quarter 2024, compared to $1.21 and $1.17 for the linked and prior year quarters, respectively.

• Pre-provision net revenue (“PPNR”)¹ - PPNR of $65.1 million in the third quarter 2024 increased $1.8 million from the linked quarter and was relatively stable with the prior year quarter. The increase from the linked quarter was primarily due to higher noninterest income from sales of other real estate owned, and higher net interest income that benefited from an increase in average earning assets. The increase in operating revenue was partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense, primarily variable deposit services costs and employee compensation and benefits.

• Net interest income and net interest margin (“NIM”) - Net interest income of $143.5 million for the third quarter 2024 increased $2.9 million and $1.8 million from the linked and prior year quarters, respectively. Compared to the linked quarter, net interest income for the third quarter 2024 increased primarily due to higher interest-earning asset balances and an additional day in the quarter. NIM was 4.17% for the third quarter 2024, compared to 4.19% and 4.33% for the linked and prior year quarters, respectively. The total cost of deposits of 2.18% for the third quarter 2024 increased 2 basis points and 34 basis points from the linked and prior year quarters, respectively.

• Noninterest income - Noninterest income of $21.4 million for the third quarter 2024 increased $5.9 million and $9.3 million from the linked and prior year quarters, respectively. The increase from the linked and prior year quarters was primarily due to an increase in tax credit income, a net gain on the sale of other real estate owned and an increase in income on community development investments.

• Noninterest expense - Noninterest expense of $98.0 million for the third quarter 2024 increased $4.0 million and $9.4 million from the linked and prior year quarters, respectively. The increase from the linked and prior year quarters was primarily driven by higher employee compensation and variable deposit servicing costs. The Company continues to have success in recruiting new relationship managers and in deposit generation from existing relationships, both of which have contributed to an increase in average deposit balances. The increase from the prior year quarter was also affected by expenses related to the core system conversion.

• Loans - Loans totaled $11.1 billion at September 30, 2024, an increase of $79.9 million from the linked quarter and an increase of $463.1 million from the prior year quarter. Average loans totaled $11.0 billion for both the current and linked quarter and $10.5 billion in the prior year quarter.

• Asset quality - The allowance for credit losses to total loans was 1.26% at September 30, 2024, compared to 1.27% at June 30, 2024 and 1.34% at September 30, 2023. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.22% at September 30, 2024, compared to 0.33% and 0.40% at June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The provision for credit losses recorded in the third quarter 2024 was $4.1 million, compared to $4.8 million and $8.0 million for the linked and prior year quarters, respectively.

• Deposits - Deposits totaled $12.5 billion at September 30, 2024, an increase of $182.9 million from the linked quarter. Excluding brokered certificates of deposits, deposits increased $196.9 million. Average deposits were $12.5 billion, $12.3 billion and $11.9 billion for the current, linked and prior year quarters, respectively. At September 30, 2024, noninterest-bearing deposit accounts totaled $3.9 billion, or 31.6% of total deposits, and the loan to deposit ratio was 88.9%.

• Liquidity - The total available on- and off-balance-sheet liquidity was approximately $5.8 billion at September 30, 2024. On-balance-sheet liquidity consisted of cash of $426.4 million and $1.4 billion in unpledged investment securities at September 30, 2024. Off-balance-sheet liquidity consisted of $1.2 billion available through the Federal Home Loan Bank, $2.6 billion available through the Federal Reserve and $140.0 million through correspondent bank lines. The Company also has an unused $25.0 million revolving line of credit and maintains a shelf registration allowing for the issuance of various forms of equity and debt securities.

• Capital - Total shareholders’ equity was $1.8 billion and the tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio² was 9.50% at September 30, 2024, compared to 9.18% at June 30, 2024. Enterprise Bank & Trust remains “well-capitalized,” with a common equity tier 1 ratio of 12.5% and a total risk-based capital ratio of 13.6% at September 30, 2024.

The Company’s board of directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.28 per common share, payable on December 31, 2024 to shareholders of record as of December 16, 2024. The board of directors also declared a cash dividend of $12.50 per share of Series A Preferred Stock (or $0.3125 per depositary share) representing a 5% per annum rate for the period commencing (and including) September 15, 2024 to (but excluding) December 15, 2024.

1 Average balances include nonaccrual loans. Interest income includes net loan fees of $2.6 million, $2.2 million, and $3.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024, and September 30, 2023, respectively.
2 Non-taxable income is presented on a fully tax-equivalent basis using a tax rate of approximately 25%. The tax-equivalent adjustments were $2.1 million for each of the three months ended September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024, and September 30, 2023, respectively.

Net interest income of $143.5 million for the third quarter 2024 increased $2.9 million and $1.8 million from the linked and prior year quarters, respectively. Net interest income on a tax equivalent basis was $145.6 million, $142.6 million and $143.7 million for the current, linked and prior year quarters, respectively. The increase from the linked and prior quarters reflects the benefit of higher yields combined with organic growth. In late September 2024 the Federal Reserve reduced the federal funds target rate by 50 basis points. In response, since the Company maintains an asset-sensitive balance sheet, deposit pricing has been adjusted to partially mitigate the impact on income from the repricing of variable rate loans.

Interest income increased $4.7 million during the third quarter 2024 due to increases in all interest earning categories, including loans, securities and interest earning cash accounts. Interest income increased primarily due to an increase in average balances compared to the linked quarter. Continued success in deposit generation has increased liquidity, which has been primarily deployed into the securities portfolio.

The average interest rate of new loan originations in the third quarter 2024 was 7.84%, a decrease of 23 basis points from the linked quarter. Investment purchases in the third quarter 2024 had a weighted average, tax equivalent yield of 4.97%.

Interest expense increased $1.7 million in the third quarter 2024 primarily due to an increase in deposit interest expense, partially offset by a decline in interest expense on borrowings. The average cost of interest-bearing deposits was 3.22%, an increase of 3 basis points compared to the linked quarter. The total cost of deposits, including noninterest-bearing demand accounts, was 2.18% during the third quarter 2024, compared to 2.16% in the linked quarter.

NIM, on a tax equivalent basis, was 4.17% in the third quarter 2024, a decrease of 2 basis points from the linked quarter and a decrease of 16 basis points from the prior year quarter. For the month of September 2024, the loan portfolio yield was 6.90% and the cost of total deposits was 2.18%.

Nonperforming assets decreased $15.2 million and $23.0 million from the linked and prior year quarters, respectively. The decrease in nonperforming assets in the current quarter was primarily related to the sale of other real estate owned, the positive resolution on several loans, principal repayments and charge-offs in the quarter. Annualized net charge-offs totaled 14 basis points of average loans in the third quarter 2024, compared to 2 basis points in the linked quarter and 26 basis point in the prior year quarter.

The provision for credit losses totaled $4.1 million in the third quarter 2024, compared to $4.8 million and $8.0 million in the linked and prior year quarters, respectively. The provision for credit losses in the third quarter 2024 was primarily related to charge-offs and updates to qualitative factors used in the allowance calculation.

Total noninterest income	$	21,420		$	15,494		$	5,926		38	%		$	12,085			$	9,335			77	%

Total noninterest income was $21.4 million for the third quarter 2024, an increase of $5.9 million and $9.3 million from the linked and prior year quarter, respectively. The increase from the linked and prior year quarters was primarily due to an increase in tax credit income from a positive change in credits carried at fair value, and a net gain on the sale of other real estate that is included in Other income. Tax credit income varies based on transaction volumes and fair value changes on credits carried at fair value.

The following table presents a comparative summary of the major components of other income for the periods indicated:

Total other income	$	8,347		$	3,991		$	4,356			109	%		$	5,397		$	2,950			55	%

The increase in other income from the linked and prior year quarters was primarily driven by a $3.2 million net gain on the sale of other real estate in the third quarter 2024 and higher community development income. Community development income and private equity fund distributions are not consistent sources of income and fluctuate based on distributions from the underlying funds. The increase from the prior year quarter was partially offset by a decline in the gain on SBA loan sales that were transacted in the prior year.

Noninterest Expense

The following table presents a comparative summary of the major components of noninterest expense for the periods indicated:

	Linked quarter comparison												Prior year comparison
	Quarter ended												Quarter ended
($ in thousands)	September 30, 2024			June 30, 2024			Increase (decrease)						September 30, 2023			Increase (decrease)
Employee compensation and benefits	$	45,359		$	44,524		$	835		2	%		$	40,771		$	4,588		11	%
Deposit costs		23,781			21,706			2,075		10	%			20,987			2,794		13	%
Occupancy		4,372			4,197			175		4	%			4,198			174		4	%
Core conversion expense		1,375			1,250			125		10	%			—			1,375		100	%
Other expense		23,120			22,340			780		3	%			22,688			432		2	%
Total noninterest expense	$	98,007		$	94,017		$	3,990		4	%		$	88,644		$	9,363		11	%

Employee compensation and benefits increased $0.8 million from the linked quarter primarily due to an increase in the number of work days in the quarter and the success in recruiting new relationship bankers. Deposit costs relate to certain specialized deposit businesses that receive an earnings credit allowance for deposit related expenses that are impacted by interest rates and average balances. Deposit costs increased $2.1 million from the linked quarter primarily due to an increase of $151.6 million in average deposit vertical balances from the linked quarter. Expenses related to the core system conversion for the current and linked quarters were $1.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively, due to the continued progress on the project, which is expected to be completed during the fourth quarter 2024.

The increase in noninterest expense of $9.4 million from the prior year quarter was primarily due to an increase in the associate base, merit increases throughout 2023 and 2024, an increase in variable deposit costs due to higher earnings credit rates and average balances, and additional expenses incurred related to the core system conversion.

For the third quarter 2024, the core efficiency ratio⁵ was 58.4%, compared to 58.1% for the linked quarter and 56.2% for the prior year quarter.

___________________

5 Core efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure. Refer to discussion and reconciliation of this measure in the accompanying financial tables.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate was 19.4%, compared to 20.5% and 21.7% in the linked and prior year quarters, respectively. The decrease in the effective tax rate from the linked and prior year quarters was driven by tax credit opportunities the Company has deployed as part of its tax planning strategy.

Capital

The following table presents total equity and various capital ratios for the most recent five quarters:

*Capital ratios for the current quarter are preliminary and subject to, among other things, completion and filing of the Company’s regulatory reports and ongoing regulatory review.

Total equity was $1.8 billion at September 30, 2024, an increase of $76.7 million from the linked quarter. Tangible common book value per share was $37.26 at September 30, 2024, compared to $35.02 and $31.06 at June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.

The Company’s regulatory capital ratios continue to exceed the “well-capitalized” regulatory benchmark. Capital ratios for the current quarter are subject to, among other things, completion and filing of the Company’s regulatory reports and ongoing regulatory review.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company’s accounting and reporting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and the prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, the Company provides additional financial measures, such as tangible common equity, PPNR, ROATCE, core efficiency ratio, the tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio, tangible book value per common share, estimated insured deposits and adjusted diluted earnings per share, in this release that are considered “non-GAAP financial measures.” Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that exclude (or include) amounts that are included in (or excluded from) the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

The Company considers its tangible common equity, PPNR, ROATCE, core efficiency ratio, the tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio, tangible book value per common share, estimated insured deposits and adjusted diluted earnings per share, collectively “core performance measures,” presented in this earnings release and the included tables as important measures of financial performance, even though they are non-GAAP measures, as they provide supplemental information by which to evaluate the impact of certain non-comparable items, and the Company’s operating performance on an ongoing basis. Core performance measures exclude certain other income and expense items, such as the FDIC special assessment, core conversion expenses, merger-related expenses, facilities charges, and the gain or loss on the sale of other real estate owned and investment securities, that the Company believes to be not indicative of or useful to measure the Company’s operating performance on an ongoing basis. The attached tables contain a reconciliation of these core performance measures to the GAAP measures. The Company believes that the tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio provides useful information to investors about the Company’s capital strength even though it is considered to be a non-GAAP financial measure and is not part of the regulatory capital requirements to which the Company is subject.

The Company believes these non-GAAP measures and ratios, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP measures and ratios, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s performance and capital strength. The Company’s management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to, these non-GAAP measures and ratios in assessing the Company’s operating results and related trends and when forecasting future periods. However, these non-GAAP measures and ratios should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or preferable to, ratios prepared in accordance with GAAP. In the attached tables, the Company has provided a reconciliation of, where applicable, the most comparable GAAP financial measures and ratios to the non-GAAP financial measures and ratios, or a reconciliation of the non-GAAP calculation of the financial measures for the periods indicated.
