Insights

NBHC's fourth quarter results present a mixed but strategically sound financial picture. The headline earnings decline to $0.73 per share from $0.86 masks the bank's underlying operational strength, as adjusted earnings remained stable at $0.86 when excluding the strategic security sales loss.

The bank's decision to sell $130M of available-for-sale securities, despite taking a $6.6M loss, represents a forward-thinking move to enhance future profitability. With proceeds being redeployed into higher-yielding securities, this should boost earnings in coming quarters. The net interest margin expansion to 3.99% is particularly impressive, outperforming many regional bank peers who are struggling with margin pressure.

Asset quality metrics warrant attention, with non-performing loans increasing to 0.46% from 0.31% quarter-over-quarter. While still manageable, this trend, combined with annualized net charge-offs of 0.11%, suggests careful monitoring is needed in the current economic environment.

The bank's efficiency initiatives are bearing fruit, with the efficiency ratio improving to 57.0%. Strategic investments in technology platforms 2UniFi and Cambr, coupled with banking center consolidations, position NBHC well for future digital banking evolution while maintaining cost discipline.

Capital levels remain robust with a CET1 ratio of 13.2%, providing ample flexibility for growth opportunities and shareholder returns, evidenced by the maintained quarterly dividend of $0.29 per share. The loan-to-deposit ratio of 94.1% and high proportion of transaction deposits (88%) reflect a stable funding base, important in the current competitive deposit environment.

Fourth Quarter 2024 Results
(All comparisons refer to the third quarter of 2024, except as noted)

Net income totaled $28.2 million or $0.73 per diluted share, compared to $33.1 million or $0.86 per diluted share. Fully taxable equivalent pre-provision net revenue totaled $38.6 million, compared to $43.7 million. The return on average tangible assets totaled 1.23%, compared to 1.43%, and the return on average tangible common equity totaled 12.31%, compared to 14.84%.

As previously announced, during the fourth quarter of 2024, the Company sold approximately $130 million of available-for-sale (“AFS”) investment securities on the open market as part of the Company’s strategic balance sheet management. The securities sold resulted in a pre-tax loss of $6.6 million. Proceeds from the sale will be redeployed over time into higher yielding securities.

Adjusting for the non-recurring loss on AFS security sales, net income increased $0.1 million to $33.2 million or $0.86 per diluted share. Adjusted fully taxable equivalent pre-provision net revenue increased $1.5 million to $45.2 million. The adjusted return on average tangible assets was 1.44%, and the adjusted return on average tangible common equity was 14.40%.

Net Interest Income
Fully taxable equivalent net interest income increased $2.5 million to $92.0 million, driven by the quarter’s loan growth and disciplined deposit pricing. Average earning assets decreased $14.6 million as $55.2 million of average loan growth was more than offset by a $64.4 million decrease in average investment securities as a result of strategic balance sheet repositioning. The fully taxable equivalent net interest margin widened 12 basis points to 3.99%, driven by a 21 basis point improvement in the cost of funds to 2.15%, which was partially offset by a seven basis point decrease in earning asset yields.

Loans
Total loans increased $36.6 million or 1.9% annualized to $7.8 billion at December 31, 2024. We generated quarterly loan fundings of $480.0 million, led by commercial loan fundings of $329.4 million. The fourth quarter weighted average rate on new loans at the time of origination was 7.9%, compared to the year to date weighted average yield of 6.6% on our loan portfolio.

Asset Quality and Provision for Credit Losses
The Company recorded $2.0 million of provision expense for credit losses, consistent with the prior quarter. The current quarter’s provision expense was primarily driven by loan growth and higher reserve requirements. Annualized net charge-offs totaled 0.11% of average total loans, primarily driven by one previously reserved credit during the quarter. Non-performing loans totaled 0.46% of total loans at December 31, 2024, compared to 0.31%, and non-performing assets totaled 0.47% of total loans and OREO at December 31, 2024, compared to 0.32%. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans totaled 1.22% at December 31, 2024, compared to 1.23% at September 30, 2024.

Deposits
Average total deposits decreased $29.0 million to $8.4 billion during the fourth quarter 2024, and average transaction deposits (defined as total deposits less time deposits) decreased $24.0 million to $7.3 billion. The loan to deposit ratio totaled 94.1% at December 31, 2024, and the mix of transaction deposits to total deposits was 88% at December 31, 2024, consistent with September 30, 2024.

Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income totaled $11.1 million during the fourth quarter, compared to $18.4 million. Included in the quarter was $6.6 million of non-recurring loss on AFS security sales. Excluding this non-recurring item, non-interest income decreased $0.7 million, primarily driven by a $0.7 million decrease in mortgage banking income due to seasonality and a decrease in service charges and bank card income. Partially offsetting these decreases was a $0.7 million increase in other non-interest income driven by our diversified sources of fee revenue.

Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense totaled $64.5 million during the fourth quarter, compared to $64.2 million in the prior quarter. Included in the fourth quarter was $1.2 million of banking center consolidation-related expense. Excluding this item, non-interest expense decreased $0.9 million driven by a $1.9 million decrease in salaries and benefits primarily due to lower performance-based compensation, and a $0.5 million decrease in professional fees. Partially offsetting these decreases was an increase in data processing and occupancy and equipment, both driven by investments in technology. The fully taxable equivalent efficiency ratio, excluding other intangible assets amortization and non-recurring loss on AFS security sales, improved 62 basis points during the fourth quarter to 57.0%.

Income tax expense decreased $0.2 million to $6.5 million, due to the fourth quarter’s lower pre-tax income. The effective tax rate was 18.8% for the fourth quarter, and the full year’s effective tax rate was 18.2%.

Capital
Capital ratios continue to be strong and in excess of federal bank regulatory agency “well capitalized” thresholds. The tier 1 leverage ratio totaled 10.69%, and the common equity tier 1 capital ratio totaled 13.20% at December 31, 2024. Shareholders’ equity increased $13.1 million to $1.3 billion at December 31, 2024. The fourth quarter’s net income drove $17.0 million of growth in retained earnings after covering the quarter’s dividend, partially offset by a $7.6 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss due to changes in the interest rate environment.

Common book value per share increased $0.28 to $34.29 at December 31, 2024. Tangible common book value per share increased $0.37 to $25.28 driven by the quarter’s earnings, partially offset by the quarterly dividend and a $0.19 increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Dividend Announcement
On January 22, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a cash dividend to shareholders. The quarterly cash dividend of $0.29 per share of common stock will be payable on March 14, 2025 to shareholders of record at the close of business on February 28, 2025.

Year-Over-Year Review
(All comparisons refer to the full year 2023, except as noted)

Net income totaled $118.8 million, or $3.08 per diluted share, compared to net income of $142.0 million, or $3.72 per diluted share in the prior year. The decrease compared to the prior year was largely driven by lower net interest income, due to an increase in cost of funds outpacing the increase in interest income, and $6.6 million of non-recurring loss on AFS security sales. Fully taxable equivalent pre-provision net revenue totaled $159.1 million, compared to $190.0 million. The return on average tangible assets totaled 1.30%, compared to 1.57%, and the return on average tangible common equity was 13.65%, compared to 18.23%.

Adjusting for $6.6 million of non-recurring loss on AFS security sales included in the fourth quarter, net income totaled $123.9 million or $3.22 per diluted share. Adjusted fully taxable equivalent pre-provision net revenue totaled $165.7 million. The adjusted return on average tangible assets was 1.36%, and the adjusted return on average tangible common equity was 14.20%.

Fully taxable equivalent net interest income totaled $352.5 million, compared to $368.1 million. Average earning assets increased $130.9 million, including average loan growth of $262.4 million, which was partially offset by a decrease in average investment securities of $67.5 million. The fully taxable equivalent net interest margin narrowed 23 basis points to 3.85%, as the increase in earning asset yields was more than offset by an increase in the cost of funds. Average interest bearing liabilities increased $441.2 million due to higher average deposit balances, and the cost of funds totaled 2.27%, compared to 1.58% in the prior year.

Loans outstanding totaled $7.8 billion, increasing $52.4 million or 0.7%. New loan fundings during 2024 totaled $1.5 billion, led by commercial loan fundings of $1.0 billion.

The Company recorded $6.8 million of provision expense for credit losses during 2024, compared to $8.3 million in the prior year. The current year’s provision expense was primarily driven by loan growth and higher reserve requirements. Annualized net charge-offs totaled 0.13% of average total loans during 2024, compared to 0.02% of average total loans during 2023. Non-performing loans totaled 0.46% of total loans at December 31, 2024, compared to 0.37%, and non-performing assets totaled 0.47% of total loans and OREO at December 31, 2024, compared to 0.42%. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of loans totaled 1.22% at December 31, 2024, compared to 1.27% at December 31, 2023.

Average total deposits increased $374.4 million or 4.7% to $8.3 billion, and average transaction deposits increased $325.4 million or 4.7%. The mix of transaction deposits to total deposits was 88%, consistent with December 31, 2023.

Non-interest income totaled $61.2 million, compared to $63.9 million during 2023. Excluding $6.6 million of non-recurring loss on AFS security sales in 2024, non-interest income increased $3.9 million primarily driven by increases in our diversified sources of fee revenue including increases in SBA loan income, trust income, Cambr income and swap fee income. Partially offsetting these increases was a $2.4 million decrease in mortgage banking income as the sustained higher-interest rate environment during the year has resulted in lower mortgage volume.

Non-interest expense totaled $254.6 million, an increase of $12.6 million or 5.2%, largely due to an ongoing investment in technology including specialized technology associates hired in 2024. Salaries and benefits increased $8.5 million, data processing increased $4.4 million and occupancy and equipment increased $2.4 million. Other intangible assets amortization increased $0.6 million due to our Cambr acquisition in April 2023. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $3.4 million in professional fees.

Income tax expense totaled $26.4 million, a decrease of $7.1 million from the prior year, driven by lower pre-tax income. The effective tax rate was 18.2%, compared to 19.1% in the prior year.

We refer to these financial measures and ratios as “non-GAAP financial measures.” We consider the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial and operational decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain expenditures or assets that we believe are not indicative of our primary business operating results or by presenting certain metrics on a fully taxable equivalent basis. We believe that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and you should not rely on non-GAAP financial measures alone as measures of our performance. The non-GAAP financial measures we present may differ from non-GAAP financial measures used by our peers or other companies. We compensate for these limitations by providing the equivalent GAAP measures whenever we present the non-GAAP financial measures and by including a reconciliation of the impact of the components adjusted for in the non-GAAP financial measure so that both measures and the individual components may be considered when analyzing our performance. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures is included at the end of the financial statement tables.
