“Our fourth quarter performance wrapped up a strong year for the Company as we executed well on the integration of our merger with Great Western, realizing the cost synergies projected for the transaction while generating solid organic loan growth throughout our footprint,” said Kevin P. Riley, President and Chief Executive Officer of First Interstate BancSystem, Inc. “We continued to see a significant volume of high quality lending opportunities in the fourth quarter, with our newer markets helping us generate our strongest organic loan growth of the year. We also saw positive trends in our adjusted net interest margin and asset quality, as non-performing assets declined by 23.5%.

“Entering 2023, with our strong levels of capital, ample liquidity, and an allowance for credit loss positioned for a more uncertain macro-economic environment, we believe we are well positioned to effectively manage through a wide range of economic scenarios. As we continue to gain more traction in our newer markets, we expect to continue generating solid loan growth in 2023, although likely at a lower level than last year given the possibility of weaker economic conditions. While we expect 2023 to present a more challenging operating environment, with the strength of the franchise we have built and the strong execution we are seeing throughout the organization, we believe that we are well positioned to continue creating long-term value for our shareholders,” said Mr. Riley.

DIVIDEND DECLARATION

On January 25, 2023, the Company’s board of directors declared a dividend of $0.47 per common share, payable on February 17, 2023, to common stockholders of record as of February 7, 2023. The dividend equates to a 4.4% annualized yield based on the $42.30 per share average closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported on NASDAQ during the fourth quarter of 2022.

GWB ACQUISITION

On February 1, 2022, the Company completed its acquisition of Great Western and GWB, a Sioux Falls, South Dakota based community bank with 174 banking offices across Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, and South Dakota. Consideration for the acquisition totaled approximately $1.7 billion consisting of the issuance of 46.9 million shares of the Company’s Class A common stock valued at $36.76 per share, the opening price of the Company’s Class A common stock as quoted on the NASDAQ stock market on the acquisition date. GWB was merged with our existing bank subsidiary, First Interstate Bank, contemporaneously with the closing of the parent company merger. The core system conversion was completed on May 23, 2022.

As of the acquisition date, Great Western had total assets with fair values of $13,351.8 million, loans held for investment with fair values of $7,705.0 million and deposits with fair values of $11,688.0 million. As of December 31, 2022, the Company recorded provisional goodwill of $479.3 million, customer relationship intangible assets of $22.8 million, and core deposit intangible assets of $50.1 million.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income decreased $8.4 million, or 3.1%, to $258.4 million, during the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to net interest income of $266.8 million during the third quarter of 2022, resulting from a $9.3 million decrease in purchase accounting accretion. Excluding purchase accounting accretion, net interest income increased by $0.9 million compared with the prior quarter. Net interest income increased $136.3 million, or 111.6%, during the fourth quarter of 2022, from $122.1 million during the fourth quarter of 2021, primarily as a result of the impact of the GWB acquisition, which was partially offset by a decrease of $9.7 million in Payroll Protection Program (“PPP”) loan income compared to the fourth quarter of 2021.

• Interest accretion attributable to the fair valuation of acquired loans from acquisitions contributed to net interest income during the fourth quarter of 2022, the third quarter of 2022, and the fourth quarter of 2021, in the amounts of $8.4 million, $17.7 million, and $1.9 million respectively.

The net interest margin ratio was 3.61% for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to 3.71% reported during the third quarter of 2022 and 2.69% during the fourth quarter of 2021. Excluding interest accretion from the fair value of acquired loans, on a quarter-over-quarter basis the net interest margin increased two basis points, as the expansion of loan yields and a favorable result from a shift in the mix of earning assets that more than offset the increased cost of funds. On the same basis year-over-year, the increase in net interest margin was the result of increased yields on earning assets and a shift in the mix of earning assets toward investment securities and loans.

PROVISION FOR (REDUCTION OF) CREDIT LOSSES

During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $14.7 million, including a provision for unfunded commitments of $6.5 million. The increase to the provision for credit losses was a result of loan growth and qualitative adjustments to account for changes to macro-economic conditions that have been forecasted to impact the Company’s clients. This compares to a provision for credit losses of $8.4 million during the third quarter of 2022 and a $9.5 million reduction of credit losses during the fourth quarter of 2021.

For the fourth quarter of 2022, the allowance for credit losses included measurements for net charge-offs of $1.1 million, or an annualized 0.02% of average loans outstanding, compared to net charge-offs of $12.0 million, or an annualized 0.27% of average loans outstanding, for the third quarter of 2022, and net charge-offs of $2.7 million, or an annualized 0.11% of average loans outstanding, for the fourth quarter of 2021.

The Company’s allowance for credit losses as a percentage of period-end loans held for investment was 1.22%, 1.21%, and 1.31% at December 31, 2022, September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively. Coverage of non-performing loans increased to 335.5% at December 31, 2022, compared to 247.7% at September 30, 2022 and decreased from 441.5% at December 31, 2021. The increase from September 30, 2022 is a result of lower levels of non-performing loans. The year-over-year decrease is a result of higher levels of non-performing loans related to the GWB acquisition.

Total non-interest income	$	41.6		$	22.9			$	18.7		81.7	%		$	37.1		$	4.5		12.1	%

Non-interest income during the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2022 increased $18.7 million. The primary driver of the increase was the net loss of $24.2 million incurred on the sale of $500 million in U.S. treasury notes that had been previously swapped in the third quarter of 2022. Excluding the net loss, the decrease in non-interest income resulted from decreased payment services revenues, lower service charges on deposit accounts resulting from higher earnings credits and a decrease in other service charges, commissions, and fees as a result of lower swap fee revenue. Other income decreased in part related to a valuation write down on loans held for sale.

Compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, non-interest income increased by $4.5 million. The increase was primarily due to payment services revenues, partially offset by a decrease in mortgage banking revenues, reflecting a decrease in home loan production volume.

Total non-interest expense	$	175.3		$	173.2		$	2.1		1.2	%		$	102.2			$	73.1		71.5	%

The Company’s non-interest expense was $175.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of $2.1 million from the third quarter of 2022. The increase was driven by a $4.2 million incentive compensation adjustment based on the achievement of certain asset quality metrics as of December 31, 2022 in addition to the write down of property classified as other real estate owned and higher expenses related to the GWB acquisition. Included in other expenses was a $1.3 million accrual related to the settlement of an outstanding litigation. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in employee benefits as a result of unmet defined goals of long-term incentives.

Compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, non-interest expense increased by $73.1 million. The increase is largely due to the acquisition expenses related to the acquisition of GWB including employee-related costs and operations extending into a larger footprint.

BALANCE SHEET

Total assets increased $943.1 million, or 3.0%, to $32,287.8 million as of December 31, 2022, from $31,344.7 million as of September 30, 2022, primarily due to increases in loans held for investment, cash and cash equivalents, and investment securities. Total assets increased $12,615.9 million, or 64.1%, from $19,671.9 million as of December 31, 2021, primarily due to $13,351.8 million of assets acquired in the acquisition of GWB, which was partially offset by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents.

Investment securities increased $128.8 million, or 1.3%, to $10,397.9 million as of December 31, 2022, from $10,269.1 million as of September 30, 2022, and increased $3,889.8 million, or 59.8%, from $6,508.1 million as of December 31, 2021. The increase in the current quarter was driven by the purchase of U.S. Treasury securities. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the redeployment of cash and cash equivalents into the securities portfolio and $2,699.0 million of securities acquired as a result of the GWB acquisition.

Investment in Federal Home Loan and Federal Reserve Bank stock increased $66.7 million, or 50.6%, to $198.6 million as of December 31, 2022, from $131.9 million as of September 30, 2022 and increased $144.8 million, or 269.1%, from $53.8 million as of December 31, 2021, primarily due to investment requirements in each of the organization’s capital stock that are applicable to the Company.

Loans held for sale decreased $13.7 million, or 14.6%, to $79.9 million as of December 31, 2022, from $93.6 million as of September 30, 2022, primarily due to a decrease in production of residential mortgage loans held for sale. Loans held for sale increased $49.8 million, or 165.4%, from $30.1 million as of December 31, 2021, primarily due to acquired agricultural loans transferred to held for sale.

The ratio of loans held for investment to deposits increased to 72.2%, as of December 31, 2022, compared to 68.0% as of September 30, 2022, and 57.4% as of December 31, 2021.

Total deposits decreased $811.2 million, or 3.1%, to $25,073.6 million as of December 31, 2022, from $25,884.8 million as of September 30, 2022, primarily due to decreases in non-interest bearing, interest-bearing demand and savings deposits. These decreases were partially offset by increases in time deposits. Total deposits increased $8,804.0 million, or 54.1%, from $16,269.6 million as of December 31, 2021, primarily due to $11,688.0 million of deposits acquired in the acquisition of GWB. This increase was partially offset by a decrease in non-interest bearing, interest-bearing demand, and savings deposits.

Securities sold under repurchase agreements decreased $22.7 million, or 2.1%, to $1,052.9 million as of December 31, 2022, from $1,075.6 million as of September 30, 2022 and increased $1.8 million, or 0.2%, from $1,051.1 million as of December 31, 2021. Exclusive of $74.0 million in such securities acquired in the GWB acquisition, securities sold under repurchase agreements decreased $72.2 million, or 6.9% from December 31, 2021. The decreases in repurchase agreement balances correspond with fluctuations in the liquidity of the Company’s clients.

Other borrowed funds is comprised of Federal Home Loan Bank variable rate overnight and fixed rate borrowings in tenors up to one-month. Other borrowed funds increased $1,702.0 million, or 272.3%, to $2,327.0 million as of December 31, 2022, from $625.0 million as of September 30, 2022 and increased $2,327.0 million, or 100.0%, from December 31, 2021.

The Company is considered to be “well-capitalized” as of December 31, 2022, having exceeded all regulatory capital adequacy requirements. During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company paid regular common stock dividends of approximately $49.0 million, or $0.47 per share.

CREDIT QUALITY

As of December 31, 2022, non-performing assets decreased $24.1 million, or 23.5%, to $78.3 million, compared to $102.4 million as of September 30, 2022, primarily driven by a decrease in non-accrual loans of $20.2 million, or 25.4%, a decrease in property classified as other real estate owned of $3.7 million, or 22.6%, and a decrease in loans past due 90 days or more of $0.2 million.

Criticized loans increased $38.2 million, or 6.6%, to $615.1 million as of December 31, 2022, from $576.9 million as of September 30, 2022, driven by loan downgrades in the commercial construction and agricultural portfolios. Increases in criticized loans were partially offset by upgrades and paydowns in the commercial and commercial real estate portfolios.

Net loan charge-offs decreased $10.9 million to $1.1 million during the fourth quarter of 2022 as compared to $12.0 million during the third quarter of 2022. The net loan charge-offs in the fourth quarter of 2022 were composed of charge-offs of $5.2 million and recoveries of $4.1 million.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP, this press release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures that management uses to evaluate our performance relative to our capital adequacy standards: (i) tangible common stockholders’ equity; (ii) tangible assets; (iii) tangible book value per common share; (iv) tangible common stockholders’ equity to tangible assets; (v) average tangible common stockholders’ equity; (vi) return on average tangible common stockholders’ equity; (vii) adjusted net interest margin; and (viii) adjusted efficiency ratio. Tangible common stockholders’ equity is calculated as total common stockholders’ equity less goodwill and other intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing rights). Tangible assets are calculated as total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing rights). Tangible book value per common share is calculated as tangible common stockholders’ equity divided by common shares outstanding. Tangible common stockholders’ equity to tangible assets is calculated as tangible common stockholders’ equity divided by tangible assets. Average tangible common stockholders’ equity is calculated as average stockholders’ equity less average goodwill and other intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing rights). Return on average tangible common stockholders’ equity is calculated as net income available to common shareholders divided by average tangible common stockholders’ equity. Adjusted net interest margin ratio (FTE) is calculated as adjusted net FTE interest income divided by adjusted average interest earning assets. Adjusted efficiency ratio is calculated as adjusted total non-interest expense divided by adjusted revenue. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies because other companies may not calculate these non-GAAP measures in the same manner. They also should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The Company adjusts the most directly comparable capital adequacy GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures described in subclauses (i) through (vi) above to exclude goodwill and other intangible assets (except mortgage servicing rights). To derive the non-GAAP financial measure identified in subclause (vii) above, the Company adjusts its net interest income to include its FTE interest income and exclude purchase accounting interest accretion on acquired loans and PPP loan income, and it adjusts average interest-earning assets to exclude average PPP loan balances. To derive the non-GAAP financial measure identified in subclause (viii) above, the Company adjusts its total non-interest expense to exclude acquisition-related expenses, litigation accruals (recoveries), intangible amortization expenses, and other real estate owned (income), and it adjusts net interest income to include total non-interest income and exclude net gain (loss) from investment securities, mortgage servicing right recoveries (impairments) and other identified income. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures, which are intended to complement the capital ratios defined by banking regulators and to present on a consistent basis our and our acquired companies’ organic continuing operations without regard to acquisition costs and other adjustments that we consider to be unpredictable and dependent on a significant number of factors that are outside our control, are useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s performance because, as a general matter, they either do not represent an actual cash expense and are inconsistent in amount and frequency depending upon the timing and size of our acquisitions (including the size, complexity and/or volume of past acquisitions, which may drive the magnitude of acquisition related costs, but may not be indicative of the size, complexity and/or volume of future acquisitions or related costs), or they cannot be anticipated or estimated in a particular period (in particular as it relates to unexpected recovery amounts). This impacts the ratios that are important to analysts and allows investors to compare certain aspects of the Company’s capitalization to other companies.

See the Non-GAAP Financial Measures table included herein and the textual discussion for a reconciliation of the above described non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.

Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions, estimates and other important factors that change over time and could cause actual results to differ materially from any results, performance or events expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such forward-looking statements include statements about the business combination transaction between FIBK and Great Western (the “Transaction”), including future financial and operating results, the combined company’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions, and other statements that are not historical facts. Furthermore, the following factors, among others, may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations in the forward-looking statements, including those set forth in this press release:

• new, or changes in, governmental regulations or policies;
• tax legislative initiatives or assessments;
• more stringent capital requirements, to the extent they may become applicable to us;
• changes in accounting standards;
• any failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations, including the Community Reinvestment Act and fair lending laws, the USA PATRIOT ACT, Office of Foreign Asset Control guidelines and requirements, the Bank Secrecy Act, and the related Financial Crimes Enforcement Network and Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council’s guidelines and regulations;
• lending risks and risks associated with loan sector concentrations;
• a decline in economic conditions that could reduce demand for our products and services and negatively impact the credit quality of loans;
• loan credit losses exceeding estimates;
• the soundness of other financial institutions;
• the ability to meet cash flow needs and availability of financing sources for working capital and other needs;
• a loss of deposits or a change in product mix that increases the Company’s funding costs;
• changes in interest rates;
• changes to United States trade policies, including the imposition of tariffs and retaliatory tariffs;
• competition from new or existing financial institutions and non-banks;
• variable interest rates tied to London Interbank Offered Rate that may no longer be available or may become unreliable;
• exposure to losses in collateralized loan obligation securities;
• cyber-security risks, including “denial-of-service attacks,” “hacking,” and “identity theft” that could result in the disclosure of confidential information;
• privacy, information security, and data protection laws, rules, and regulations that affect or limit how we collect and use personal information;
• the potential impairment of our goodwill and other intangible assets;
• exposure to losses in collateralized loan obligation securities;
• our reliance on other companies that provide key components of our business infrastructure;
• events that may tarnish our reputation;
• the loss of the services of key members of our management team and directors;
• our ability to attract and retain qualified employees to operate our business;
• costs associated with repossessed properties, including environmental remediation;
• the effectiveness of our systems of internal operating controls;
• our ability to implement new technology-facilitated products and services or be successful in marketing these products and services to our clients;
• difficulties we may face in combining the operations of acquired entities or assets with our own operations or assessing the effectiveness of businesses in which we make strategic investments or with which we enter into strategic contractual relationships;
• incurrence of significant costs related to mergers and related integration activities;
• the volatility in the price and trading volume of our common stock;
• “anti-takeover” provisions and the regulations, which may make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us even in circumstances that could be deemed beneficial to stockholders;
• changes in our dividend policy or our ability to pay dividends;
• our common stock not being an insured deposit;
• the potential dilutive effect of future equity issuances;
• the subordination of our common stock to our existing and future indebtedness;
• the ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the U.S., state and local government’s response to the pandemic;
• the effect of global conditions, earthquakes, volcanoes, tsunamis, floods, fires, drought, and other natural catastrophic events; and
• the impact of climate change and environmental sustainability matters.

These factors are not necessarily all the factors that could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by any of our forward-looking statements. Other unknown or unpredictable factors also could harm our results.

All forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements set forth above and included and described in more detail in our periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, under the caption “Risk Factors.” Interested parties are urged to read in their entirety such risk factors prior to making any investment decision with respect to the Company. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made and we do not undertake or assume any obligation to update publicly any of these statements to reflect actual results, new information or future events, changes in assumptions or changes in other factors affecting forward-looking statements, except to the extent required by applicable laws. If we update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be drawn that we will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.
