Joseph R. Catti, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer:
"The most significant drivers of FineMark's success are the extraordinary talents of our associates, the strength of our balance sheet, and an unwavering commitment to our culture of service. In 2022, our associates exceeded expectations, overcoming difficult market conditions and a massive hurricane, on the heels of the COVID pandemic.
Hurricane Ian caused unimaginable damage and inflicted hardships, particularly on the communities and people in Southwest Florida, where FineMark has a significant presence. I have been deeply inspired by the work of our associates in helping each other and the broader community in the aftermath of the storm.
On the financial front, the twin shocks of inflation and rising interest rates have rocked the equity and bond markets, resulting in the worst annual performance of bonds since inception of the Bloomberg Bond index in 1976 and U.S. stock markets since 2008.
After a period of difficulties such as this, we assess our performance based on how well we have risen to the challenges, and I am proud of what was accomplished in 2022."
Financial highlights for full-year and fourth quarter 2022 on a year-over-year basis include:
- Net interest income increased to
$69.9 in 2022 from$64.7 million for 2021. For the fourth quarter of 2022, net interest income totaled$15.9 million compared to$17.2 for the fourth quarter of 2021, due in part to the significant rise in interest rates. - Despite rising interest rates, loan production totaled

12% year-over-year, increasing from just under$2 billion in 2021 to$2.23 billion in 2022. - Deposits increased
3% to$2.8 billion , despite moving approximately$370 million from deposit accounts into Treasuries. - Trust fees remained flat year-over-year at

03% , down from an already low .04% . Additionally, the Bank's criticized assets decreased to$2.8 million at the end of 2022, from$15.4 million in 2021, which is a testament to the relationships we build with clients and the Bank's conservative credit culture. - The Bank added 1,247 new client households in 2022 (including 263 new investment relationships), compared to 1,186 new client households in 2021.
- FineMark's Sports Management division welcomed 20 new professional athletes in 2022, bringing the total to 228.
The dramatic rate increases in 2022, as the Fed continued attempts to stem inflation, created unanticipated challenges for the year. The federal funds rate increased much more rapidly than in past cycles of monetary tightening and took a toll on earnings, as the cost of funding rose dramatically.
This rapid rise in interest rates adversely impacted FineMark through the Bank's sweep accounts. Each night, investment clients' cash is automatically transferred into a higher yielding bank money market account. The interest rate for sweep accounts rose from
The overall decline in value of both stocks and bonds, has also reduced asset-based fee income. Having these two asset classes fall so much over the same period is highly unusual. Looking at calendar year returns for the S&P 500 and 10-year Treasury bonds over the last 95 years, 2022 is an outlier in terms of such negative returns for both stocks and bonds.

Closing Remarks from Chairman & Chief Executive Officer, Joseph R. Catti
