Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company’s accounting and reporting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States and prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, certain non-GAAP measures are used by management to supplement the evaluation of the Company’s performance. Whenever a non-GAAP financial measure is presented, the differences between the non-GAAP financial measure and the most directly comparable financial measure in accordance with GAAP are presented and reconciled. The following non-GAAP financial measures presented are defined below.
Net interest income (tax-equivalent basis), yield on interest-earning assets (tax-equivalent basis), net interest spread (tax-equivalent basis) and net interest margin (tax-equivalent basis). These measures include the effects of taxable-equivalent adjustments using a federal income tax rate effective during the relevant year to increase tax-exempt interest income to a tax-equivalent basis. Interest income earned on certain assets is completely or partially exempt from federal income tax. As such, these tax-exempt instruments typically yield lower returns than taxable investments. Net interest income (tax-equivalent basis) is a non-GAAP measure that adjusts for the tax-favored status of net interest income from certain loans and investments and is not permitted under GAAP in the consolidated statements of income. We believe this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income, and that it enhances comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is net interest income. Yield on interest-earning assets (tax-equivalent basis) is the ratio of interest income earned from interest-earning assets, adjusted on a tax-equivalent basis, and average interest-earning assets. The yield for investment securities is based on amortized cost and does not give effect to changes in fair value that are reflected in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income / Loss (“AOCI”). The most directly comparable financial measure in accordance with GAAP is yield on interest-earning assets. Net interest spread (tax-equivalent basis) is the difference in the average yield on average earning assets on a tax-equivalent basis and the average rate paid on average interest-bearing liabilities. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is net interest spread. Net interest margin (tax-equivalent basis) is the ratio of net interest income (tax-equivalent basis) to average earning assets. The most directly comparable financial measure in accordance with GAAP is net interest margin.
Book value per share excluding Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income / Loss. We calculate book value per share excluding AOCI as total stockholders’ equity at the end of the relevant period, less AOCI, divided by the outstanding number of our common shares at the end of each period. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is book value per share. We provide the book value per share excluding AOCI in addition to those defined by banking regulators because we believe it is important to evaluate the balance sheet both before and after the effects of unrealized amounts associated with mark-to-market adjustments on available-for-sale investment securities.
Tangible book value per share. Tangible book value per share is a non-GAAP financial measure. We calculate tangible book value per share as total stockholders’ equity at the end of the relevant period, less goodwill and other intangible assets, divided by the outstanding number of our common shares at the end of each period. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is book value per share. We had no goodwill or other intangible assets as of any of the dates indicated. As a result, tangible book value per share is the same as book value per share as of each of the dates indicated. We provide the tangible book value per share in addition to those defined by banking regulators because of its widespread use by investors as a means to evaluate capital adequacy.
These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered alternatives to GAAP-basis financial statements, and other bank holding companies may define these non-GAAP measures or similar measures differently.
