BayCom Corp Reports 2023 Third Quarter Earnings of $6.6 Million

BayCom Corp (“BayCom” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BCML), the holding company for United Business Bank (the “Bank” or “UBB”), announced earnings of $6.6 million, or $0.56 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2023, compared to earnings of $7.2 million, or $0.59 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2023 and $7.0 million, or $0.52 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2022.

Net income for the third quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2023 decreased $576,000 or 8.0%, primarily as a result of a $1.9 million increase in provision for credit losses, reflecting a $674,000 provision for credit losses for the current quarter compared to a $1.3 million reversal of the allowance for credit losses during the second quarter of 2023, partially offset by a $528,000 increase in net interest income, $568,000 increase in noninterest income and a $224,000 decrease in provision for income taxes. Net income for the third quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022 decreased $340,000 or 4.9%, primarily as a result of $728,000 decrease in noninterest income and $423,000 increase in noninterest expense, partially offset by a $520,000 decrease in provision for credit losses, a $84,000 increase in net interest income and $207,000 decrease in provision for income taxes.

Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 increased $4.9 million or 30.6%, primarily as a result of a $4.1 million increase in net interest income and a $4.1 million decrease in provision for credit losses, reflecting a $311,000 reversal of the allowance for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to a $3.8 million provision for credit losses for the same period in 2022, partially offset by a $891,000 decrease in noninterest income and a $2.4 million increase in provision for income taxes.

George Guarini, Founder, President, and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, stated, "Our financial performance for the third quarter of 2023 remained resilient despite the challenges confronting the banking industry. Similar to other banks, we experienced some pressure on our net interest margin, but this appears to have eased somewhat in the recent quarter. During the quarter, we proactively bolstered our loan loss reserves, primarily in response to specific loans. On the whole, our credit quality remains solid, and we have not identified any systemic credit issues within our loan portfolio."

Guarini concluded, "Our financial indicators remain stable, with a net interest margin exceeding 4.0%, a return on assets surpassing 1.0%, and an improving efficiency ratio. Our liquidity and deposit levels have held steady throughout the quarter. We are committed to enhancing our tangible book value through earnings and the repurchase of our shares, which are currently trading well below our tangible book value. Additionally, we maintain the belief that merger and acquisition opportunities may arise as other banks recognize the advantages of consolidation in the current operational environment."

Earnings

Net interest income increased $528,000, or 2.2%, to $24.8 million for the third quarter of 2023 from $24.3 million in the prior quarter, and increased $84,000, or 0.3%, from $24.7 million in the same quarter a year ago. The increase in net interest income from the previous quarter and same quarter in 2022 reflects increases in interest income on loans, federal funds sold and interest-bearing balances in banks and, to a lesser extent, investment securities, including dividends on Federal Reserve Bank (“FRB”) and Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock, partially offset by higher funding costs related to our deposits and junior subordinated debt due to higher market rates. Average interest-earning assets increased $21.7 million, or 0.8%, and decreased $12.0 million, or 0.46% for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2023 and the third quarter of 2022, respectively. Average yield (annualized) on interest earning assets for the third quarter of 2023 was 5.34%, compared to 5.18% for the second quarter of 2023 and 4.38% for the third quarter of 2022. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities for third quarter of 2023 was 2.04 %, compared to 1.82% for the second quarter of 2023, and 0.66% for the third quarter of 2022. The increases in average yield on interest-earning assets and average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities during the current quarter reflect increases in market interest rates due to recent increases in the target range for federal funds, including a 100 basis-point increase during the first nine months of 2023, to a range of 5.25% to 5.50%.

Interest income on loans, including fees, increased $562,000, or 2.1%, to $27.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to a 14 basis point increase in the average loan yield, partially offset by a $36.0 million decrease in the average balance of loans. Interest income on loans, including fees, increased $3.2 million, or 13.4%, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to a 69 basis point increase in the average loan yield, partially offset by a $24.2 million decrease in the average balance of loans. The average balance of loans was $2.0 billion for the third quarter of 2023, second quarter of 2023 and the same quarter a year ago. The average yield on loans was 5.42% for the third quarter of 2023, compared to 5.28% for the second quarter of 2023 and 4.73% for the third quarter of 2022. The increase in the average yield on loans from the third quarter of 2023 and the third quarter of 2022 was due to the impact of increased rates on variable rate loans as well as new loans being originated at higher market interest rates.

Interest income on loans included $372,000, $5,000, and $63,000 in accretion of the net discount on acquired loans for the three months ended September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023, and September 30, 2022, respectively. The balance of the net discounts on these acquired loans totaled $419,000, $331,000, and $480,000 at September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023, and September 30, 2022, respectively. Interest income included minimal fees earned related to Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans in the quarters ended September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, and $161,000 during the quarter ended September 30, 2022. Interest income also included fees related to prepayment penalties of $142,000 in the quarter ended September 30, 2023, compared to $48,000 in the second quarter of 2023, and $195,000 in the third quarter of 2022.

Interest income on investment securities increased $11,000, or 0.6%, from the prior quarter and totaled $1.7 million for both the three months ended September 30, 2023 and the three months ended June 30, 2023, and increased $149,000, or 9.6%, from $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Average yield on investment securities increased two basis points to 4.01% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to 3.99% for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and increased 74 basis points from 3.27% for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The average balance of investment securities totaled $168.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $170.1 million and $188.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively. In addition, during the third quarter of 2023, we received $376,000 in cash dividends on our FRB and FHLB stock, up 10.6% from $340,000 in the second quarter of 2023 and up 31.9% from $285,000 in the third quarter of 2022.

Interest income on federal funds sold and interest-bearing balances in banks increased $961,000, or 37.5%, to $3.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and increased $2.2 million, or 173.8%, from $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 as a result of an increase in the average yield. The average yield on federal funds sold and interest-bearing balances in banks increased 24 basis points to 5.38% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to 5.14% for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and increased 320 basis points from 2.18% for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The average balance of federal funds sold and interest-bearing balance in banks totaled $259.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $199.9 million and $234.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively.

Interest expense increased $1.0 million, or 14.9%, to $8.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $7.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and increased $5.6 million, or 232.5%, compared to $2.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022, reflecting higher funding costs primarily related to increased market rates of interest on our deposits. Average balance of deposits totaled $2.2 billion for the third quarter of 2023 compared to $2.1 billion for the second quarter of 2023, and $2.2 billion for the third quarter of 2022. The average cost of funds for the third quarter of 2023 was 2.04%, compared to 1.82% for the second quarter of 2023 and 0.66% for the third quarter of 2022. The increase in the average cost of funds during the current quarter compared to the prior quarter of 2023 and the third quarter of 2022 was due to higher interest rates paid on money market and time deposits due to increased competition and pricing pressures and a change in deposit mix due to shift of deposits from noninterest bearing accounts to higher costing money market and time deposits. The average cost of total deposits for the three months ended September 30, 2023 was 1.27%, compared to 1.10% for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and 0.25% for the three months ended September 30, 2022. The average balance of noninterest bearing deposits decreased $2.7 million, or 0.4%, to $674.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $677.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and decreased $127.1 million, or 15.8%, compared to $801.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Interest expense on junior subordinated debt increased $14,000, or 6.9% to $217,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to $203,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2023, and increased $88,000, or 68.2%, compared to $129,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, due to higher market rates.

Annualized net interest margin was 4.03% for the third quarter of 2023, compared to 4.02% for the second quarter of 2023 and 3.99% for third quarter of 2022. The average yield on interest earning assets for the third quarter of 2023 increased 16 basis points and 96 basis points over the average yields for the second quarter of 2023 and the third quarter of 2022, respectively, while the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities for third quarter of 2023 increased 22 basis points and 138 basis points over the average rates paid for the second quarter of 2023 and the third quarter of 2022, respectively. Net interest margin in the third quarter of 2023 was positively impacted by increasing yields on loans and accretion of the net discount and increasing yields on investment securities, fed funds sold and interest bearing-balances in banks, which outpaced on a percentage basis higher funding costs.

The average yield on PPP loans, including the recognition of deferred PPP loan fees, was 1.00% during the third and second quarters of 2023, resulting in a minimal negative impact to the net interest margin, compared to an average yield of 2.28% during the third quarter of 2022 resulting in a positive impact to the net interest margin of three basis points. Accretion of the net discount increased the average yield on loans by eight basis points during the third quarter of 2023, compared to no effect and a one basis point increase on the average yield on loans during the prior quarter of 2023 and the third quarter of 2022, respectively. At September 30, 2023, there was a total of $4.3 million of PPP loans outstanding, with a minimal amount of unrecognized deferred fees and costs.

Based on our review of the allowance for credit losses at September 30, 2023, the Company recorded a $674,000 provision for credit losses for the third quarter of 2023, compared to a $1.3 million reversal of the allowance for credit losses in the prior quarter of 2023 and a $1.2 million provision for credit losses in the third quarter of 2022. The provision for credit losses for loans in the third quarter of 2023 was primarily due to $1.2 million increase in reserve for individually evaluated loans, which included the loan to the Trust discussed below and previously disclosed, and an increase in qualitative reserves, partially offset by improvements in forecasted economic conditions, specifically, national gross domestic product and national unemployment, indicators utilized to estimate credit losses and, to a lesser extent, a decrease in outstanding loan balances and $25,000 in net charge-offs during the third quarter of 2023.

During the quarter ended September 30, 2023, the Company determined that a certificate of deposit-secured line of credit loan made to a revocable living trust (the “Trust” or the “Borrower”) with an outstanding balance of approximately $1.0 million as of September 30, 2023 was impaired as a result of the sole trustee and beneficiary of the Trust filing for personal bankruptcy in July 2023. At June 30, 2023, the loan had an outstanding balance of $5.0 million and was secured by a $4.0 million certificate of deposit held at the Bank. An additional $1.0 million in cash collateral securing the loan had previously been released by the Bank into a third-party escrow account at the request of the Borrower to be used as a refundable retainer in connection with a separate transaction by the Borrower. The loan matured on July 16, 2023, and the Bank received notification that the sole trustee and beneficiary of the Trust filed for personal bankruptcy on July 18, 2023. After receiving this notification, the Bank used the $4.0 million certificate of deposit held at the Bank to offset amounts owed on the loan and contacted the third-party escrow agent for the return of the additional $1.0 million of collateral. The Bank was advised by the escrow agent that the previously escrowed funds had been released by the escrow agent, which was done without the Bank’s consent and contrary to the written escrow instructions. The Bank has initiated legal action against the Borrower, the Borrower’s related parties and the escrow agent to recover the previously escrowed collateral. The results of the planned legal action and the Bank’s ability to recover the previously escrowed collateral are currently uncertain. The loan was fully reserved for at September 30, 2023.

Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2023 increased $568,000, or 52.3%, to $1.7 million compared to $1.1 million in the prior quarter of 2023 and decreased $728,000, or 30.6%, compared to $2.4 million for the third quarter of 2022. The increase in noninterest income for the current quarter compared to the prior quarter of 2023 was primarily due to a $643,000 decrease in loss on equity securities as a result of improvement in fair value adjustments on these securities, a $91,000 increase in service charges and other fees and a $36,000 increase in other income and fees, partially offset by a $162,000 decrease in loan servicing fees and other fees, and a $40,000 decrease in gain on sale of SBA loans (guaranteed portion) generally due to a decrease in the volume of SBA loans sold during the current quarter. The decrease in noninterest income for the current quarter compared to the same quarter in 2022 was primarily due to a $1.3 million decrease in gain on sale of loans due to a decrease in the volume of and premiums observed on SBA loans (guaranteed portion) sold and a $57,000 decrease in loan servicing fees and other fees, partially offset by a $288,000 increase in income from our investment in a Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”) fund, a $156,000 increase in service charges and other fees, a $88,000 decrease in loss on equity securities and a $47,000 increase in other income and fees.

Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2023 decreased $38,000, or 0.2%, to $16.5 million compared to $16.6 million for the prior quarter of 2023, and increased $423,000, or 2.6%, compared to $16.1 million for the third quarter of 2022. The decrease in noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2023 compared to the prior quarter of 2023 was primarily due to a $461,000 decrease in salaries and employee benefits as a result of decline in other benefits expense, partially offset by a $159,000 increase in occupancy and equipment expense due to higher depreciation and property maintenance expense, a $158,000 increase in data processing and a $106,000 increase in other expense. The increase in noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022 was primarily due to a $212,000 increase in data processing, a $120,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits due to wage increases and an increase in full-time equivalent employees, and a $90,000 increase in occupancy and equipment.

The provision for income taxes decreased $224,000, or 7.8%, to $2.6 million for the third quarter of 2023 compared to $2.9 million for the prior quarter of 2023 and decreased $207,000, or 7.3%, to $2.8 million compared to the third quarter of 2022. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2023 was 28.5%, compared to 28.4% for the prior quarter of 2023, and 29.0% for the third quarter of 2022. The effective tax rate was lower for the third quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022 due to accrual for non-deductible compensation expenses.

Loans and Credit Quality

Loans, net of deferred fees, decreased $44.5 million and $26.2 million from the prior quarter-end and September 30, 2022, respectively, and totaled $2.0 billion at September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022. The decrease in loans at September 30, 2023 compared to June 30, 2023 primarily was due to $15.6 million of new loan originations, which was more than offset by $58.6 million of loan repayments, including $584,000 in PPP loan repayments. At September 30, 2023, there was a total of $4.3 million in PPP loans outstanding compared to $4.9 million at June 30, 2023, and $35.4 million at September 30, 2022.

Nonperforming loans, consisting of non-accrual loans and accruing loans 90 days or more past due, totaled $14.3 million or 0.73% of total loans at September 30, 2023, compared to $12.8 million or 0.64% of total loans at June 30, 2023, and $19.7 million or 0.99% of total loans at September 30, 2022. The increase in nonperforming loans from the prior quarter-end was primarily due to the line of credit loan discussed above made to the Trust that was placed on nonaccrual during the current quarter. The portion of nonaccrual loans guaranteed by government agencies totaled $801,000 at both September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, compared to $862,000 at September 30, 2022. There were no loans, 90 days or more past due and still accruing and in the process of collection at both September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, compared to 18 loans totaling $3.3 million in accruing SBA guaranteed PPP loans which were 90 days or more past due and in the process of forgiveness at September 30, 2022. Accruing loans past due between 30 and 89 days at September 30, 2023, were $2.6 million, compared to $1.6 million at June 30, 2023, and $5.3 million at September 30, 2022. The increase in accruing loans past due between 30-89 days from the prior quarter-end was primarily due to timing of borrower payments.

At September 30, 2023, the Company’s allowance for credit losses for loans was $19.8 million, or 1.01% of total loans, compared to $19.1 million, or 0.95% of total loans, at June 30, 2023 and $18.1 million, or 0.90% of total loans, at September 30, 2022. We recorded net charge-offs of $25,000 for the third quarter of 2023, compared to net charge-offs of $60,000 in the prior quarter of 2023 and net charge-offs of $944,000 in the third quarter of 2022.

In accordance with acquisition accounting, acquired loans were recorded at their estimated fair value, which resulted in a net discount to the loans’ contractual amounts. Credit discounts are included in the determination of fair value and as a result, no allowance for credit losses is recorded for acquired loans at the acquisition date. However, the allowance for credit losses includes an estimate for credit deterioration of acquired loans that occurs after the date of acquisition, which is included in the provision for credit losses in the period that the deterioration occurred. The discount recorded on the acquired loans is not reflected in the allowance for credit losses on loans or the related allowance coverage ratios. As of September 30, 2023, acquired loans net of their discount totaled $224.4 million with a remaining net discount on these loans of $419,000, compared to $234.7 million of acquired loans with a remaining net discount of $331,000 at June 30, 2023, and $229.4 million of acquired loans with a remaining net discount of $480,000 at September 30, 2022. The net discount includes a credit discount based on estimated losses on the acquired loans, partially offset by a premium, if any, based on market interest rates on the date of acquisition.

Deposits and Borrowings

Deposits totaled $2.2 billion at September 30, 2023, compared to $2.1 billion at both June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022. The deposit mix shifted, in part, due to interest rate sensitive clients moving a portion of their non-operating deposit balances from lower costing deposits, including noninterest bearing deposits, into higher costing money market and time deposits. At September 30, 2023, noninterest bearing deposits totaled $667.3 million, or 30.9% of total deposits, compared to $664.1 million, or 30.9% of total deposits at June 30, 2023, and $813.5 million, or 38.5% of total deposits at September 30, 2022.

We consider our deposit base to be seasoned, stable and well-diversified, and we do not have any significant industry concentrations among our non-insured deposits. We also offer an insured cash sweep product (ICS) that allows customers to insure deposits above FDIC insurance limits. At September 30, 2023, our average deposit account size (excluding public funds), calculated by dividing period-end deposits by the population of accounts with balances, was approximately $59,000.

The Bank has an approved secured borrowing facility with the FHLB of San Francisco for up to 25% of total assets for a term not to exceed five years under a blanket lien of certain types of loans. At September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the Bank had no FHLB advances outstanding. The Bank has Federal Funds lines with four corresponding banks. Cumulative available commitments on these lines totaled $65.0 million at September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022. There were no amounts outstanding under these facilities at September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023 or September 30, 2022.

At September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the Company had outstanding junior subordinated debt, net of fair value adjustments, related to junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures assumed in connection with its previous acquisitions totaling $8.5 million. At both September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the Company also had outstanding subordinated debt, net of costs to issue, totaling $63.8 million, compared to $63.7 million at September 30, 2022.

At September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, the Company had no other borrowings outstanding.

Shareholders’ Equity

Shareholders’ equity totaled $307.3 million at September 30, 2023, compared to $307.0 million at June 30, 2023, and $314.4 million at September 30, 2022. The increase at September 30, 2023 compared to June 30, 2023, reflects $6.6 million of net income during the current quarter, partially offset by repurchases of $4.5 million of common stock, $1.2 million of accrued cash dividends payable and a $840,000 increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of taxes, during the current quarter. At September 30, 2023, 482,311 shares remained available for future purchases under the Company’s current stock repurchase plan.

The decrease in shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2023, compared to September 30, 2022, primarily was due to the repurchase of $21.7 million of Company common stock, cash dividends paid and accrued of $3.6 million, and a $5.7 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of taxes, partially offset by $21.0 million of net income earned during the first nine months of 2023 and the fourth quarter of 2022.

Forward-Looking Statements

This release, as well as other public or shareholder communications by the Company, may contain forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, (i) statements regarding the financial condition, results of operations and business of the Company, (ii) statements about the Company’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other statements that are not historical facts and (iii) other statements identified by the words or phrases “will likely result,” “are expected to,” “will continue,” “is anticipated,” “estimate,” “project,” “intends” or similar expressions that are intended to identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts but instead are based on current beliefs and expectations of the Company’s management and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change.

There are a number of factors that could cause future results to differ materially from historical performance and these forward-looking statements. Factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated or implied by our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: potential adverse impacts to economic conditions in our local market areas, other markets where the Company has lending relationships, or other aspects of the Company’s business operations or financial markets, including, without limitation, as a result of employment levels, labor shortages and the effects of inflation, a potential recession or slowed economic growth; changes in the interest rate environment, including the recent increases in the Federal Reserve benchmark rate and duration at which such increased interest rate levels are maintained, which could adversely affect our revenues and expenses, the values of our assets and obligations, and the availability and cost of capital and liquidity; the impact of continuing high inflation and the current and future monetary policies of the Federal Reserve in response thereto; the effects of any federal government shutdown; the impact of bank failures or adverse developments at other banks and related negative press about the banking industry in general on investor and depositor sentiment; review of the Company’s accounting, accounting policies and internal control over financial reporting; risks and uncertainties related to the recent restatement of certain of our historical consolidated financial statements; the subsequent discovery of additional adjustments to the Company’s previously issued financial statements; future acquisitions by the Company of other depository institutions or lines of business; fluctuations in interest rates; the risks of lending and investing activities, including changes in the level and direction of loan delinquencies and write-offs and changes in estimates of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses; the Company's ability to access cost-effective funding; fluctuations in real estate values and both residential and commercial real estate market conditions; demand for loans and deposits in the Company's market area; increased competitive pressures; changes in management’s business strategies; disruptions, security breaches, or other adverse events, failures or interruptions in, or attacks on, our information technology systems or on the third-party vendors who perform critical processing functions for us; the effects of climate change, severe weather events, natural disasters, pandemics, epidemics and other public health crises, acts of war or terrorism, and other external events on our business; and other factors described in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other reports filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) that are available on our website at www.unitedbusinessbank.com and on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

The factors listed above could materially affect the Company’s financial performance and could cause the Company��s actual results for future periods to differ materially from any opinions or statements expressed with respect to future periods in any current statements.

The Company does not undertake - and specifically declines any obligation - to publicly release the result of any revisions, that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law or NASDAQ rules. When considering forward-looking statements, you should keep in mind these risks and uncertainties. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement, which speaks only as of the date made.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles utilized in the United States (“GAAP”), this earnings release contains tangible book value per share, a non-GAAP financial measure. Tangible book value per share is calculated by dividing tangible common shareholders’ equity by the number of common shares outstanding at the end of the period. Tangible common shareholders’ equity excludes intangible assets from shareholders’ equity. For this financial measure, the Company’s intangible assets are goodwill and core deposit intangibles. The Company believes that this measure is consistent with the capital treatment by our bank regulatory agencies, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios, and presents this measure to facilitate comparison of the quality and composition of the Company’s capital over time in comparison to its peers. Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Further, these non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Reconciliation of the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures is presented below:
