1 Ratios are based primarily on daily average balances.
2 The efficiency ratio is not a measurement under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The efficiency ratio is a common measure used by the financial service industry to determine operating efficiency. It is calculated by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income excluding gains and losses on the investments portfolio and Other Real Estate Owned. The Company calculates this ratio in order to evaluate how efficiently it utilizes its operating structure to create income.
3 The net interest margin is calculated by dividing tax equivalent net interest income by total average earning assets. Tax equivalent interest income is calculated by grossing up interest income for the amounts that are nontaxable (i.e. municipal securities and loan income) then subtracting interest expense. The tax rate utilized is
4 Calculated using loans held for investment and excludes loans held for sale.
5 Calculated using 90-day past due loans and nonaccrual loans to total assets.
