The Company's total investment securities portfolio increased by $30.5 million, or 2.6%, from $1.17 billion at December 31, 2021 to $1.21 billion at December 31, 2022.

Total deposits, inclusive of the Northmark merger, increased by $484.2 million, or 11.2%, to $4.82 billion at December 31, 2022, as compared to $4.33 billion at December 31, 2021.  Excluding wholesale deposits, total deposits increased by $105.4 million, or 2.4%.

• Excluding the impact of the Northmark merger, organic core deposits decreased by $217.3 million, or 5.2%, as the rapidly increasing interest rate environment saw clients use funds for investment opportunities, spend down historically high balances, and seek additional return.
• Certificates of deposit totaled $586.6 million at December 31, 2022, an increase of $424.6 million from $162.1 million at December 31, 2021, primarily due to increases in wholesale certificates of deposit.
• Total wholesale certificates of deposit, which are included within certificates of deposit, were $381.6 million and $2.7 million at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
• Inclusive of the Northmark merger, the cost of total deposits was 0.66% for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, as compared to 0.26% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Net Interest and Dividend Income

Net interest and dividend income, before the provision for credit losses, increased by $4.6 million, or 12.7%, to $40.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, from $36.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. This was primarily due to an increase in average earning assets (both organic and as a result of the Northmark merger) and higher yields on earning assets, partially offset by higher cost of funds.

The Company's net interest margin on a fully taxable equivalent basis, inclusive of the Northmark merger, increased by 13 basis points to 3.08% for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, as compared to 2.95% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, net interest and dividend income before the provision for credit losses increased by $15.2 million, or 11.9%, to $143.2 million, as compared to $128.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. This increase was primarily due to an increase in average earning assets (both organic and as a result of the Northmark merger) and higher asset yields, partially offset by lower loan accretion associated with merger accounting, a decrease in Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loan income, and higher cost of funds.

The Company's net interest margin on a fully taxable equivalent basis decreased by 20 basis points to 2.92% for the year ended December 31, 2022, as compared to 3.12% for the year ended December 31, 2021.

In order to provide greater disclosure of the impact of loan related merger accounting, a reconciliation of the Company's net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, to an adjusted net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, is shown below. Excluding the impact of merger related loan accretion, the adjusted net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, was 3.01%, representing an eight basis point increase from the adjusted net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, of 2.93% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

Excluding the impact of merger related loan accretion, the adjusted net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, for the year ended December 31, 2022, was 2.87%, representing a six basis point decrease from the adjusted net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, of 2.93% for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Provision for (Release of) Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses during the quarter ended December 31, 2022 includes the impact of the Northmark merger on the Company's allowance for credit losses under the current expected credit loss ("CECL") accounting standard. CECL requires the removal of Northmark's prior allowance for loan losses through the balance sheet as goodwill and re-establishment of a new allowance for credit losses through the income statement within the provision for credit losses. Total provision expense for the three months ended December 31, 2022 was $3.7 million, which included $2.2 million for the recognition of the CECL merger accounting impact, inclusive of unfunded commitments. The Company considers such expense as a non-operating expense. The Company recorded additional provision for credit losses due to loan growth and the outlook for economic conditions. The Company recorded a $612,000 provision for credit losses for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $3.9 million, which included $2.2 million for the recognition of the non-operating impact of merger related CECL accounting, as compared to a $1.3 million release of credit losses for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Noninterest Income

Inclusive of the Northmark merger, total noninterest income decreased by $380,000, or 3.6%, to $10.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $10.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. This change was primarily the result of lower loan related derivative income and wealth management revenue. Noninterest income was 19.8% of total revenue for the quarter ended December 31, 2022.

• Loan related derivative income decreased by $142,000, or 66.7%, to $71,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $213,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, primarily as a result of lower floating rate loan volume.
• Wealth management revenue decreased by $140,000, or 1.7%, to $8.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $8.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to seasonal tax preparation fees which were recognized during the third fiscal quarter, partially offset by positive returns in both the bond and stock markets. Wealth Management Assets under Management and Administration were $4.1 billion at December 31, 2022, an increase of $222.8 million, or 5.8%, from September 30, 2022, primarily due to positive returns in both the bond and stock markets.

This was primarily the result of lower wealth management revenue, lower loan related derivative income, and lower gains on loans sold. These items were partially offset by higher bank owned life insurance income, higher deposit account fees, and higher other income. Noninterest income was 23.1% of total revenue for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022.

• Gain on loans sold decreased by $734,000, or 88.2%, to $98,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $832,000 for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, due to lower refinance activity and the corresponding lower sales of residential mortgages.

• Other income increased by $844,000, or 41.7%, to $2.9 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, as compared to $2.0 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, primarily due to equity warrant revenue and success fees associated with Innovation Banking loans, in addition to gains recognized on a community development fund investment.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2022, there was an increase in non-operating expenses, professional services, salaries and employee benefits expense, and marketing expense, as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

• Non-operating expenses increased by $2.5 million to $2.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, from $150,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to merger expenses and contractual termination costs.
• Professional fees increased by $1.1 million, or 146.3%, to $1.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, from $749,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to higher consulting fees associated with vendor contract negotiations and increased legal expenses associated with contract reviews and regulatory filings.
• Salary and employee benefits expense increased by $988,000, or 5.7%, to $18.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, from $17.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to staffing additions associated with the Northmark merger.
• Marketing expense increased by $397,000, or 54.3%, to $1.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, from $731,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, primarily due to the continuation of a marketing campaign that began during the third fiscal quarter of 2022.

• Salaries and employee benefits expense increased by $5.0 million, or 7.6%, to $70.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, from $65.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, primarily due to increased staffing related to the Northmark merger, normal merit increases, additions to support business initiatives, and increases in employee benefit costs.
• Data processing increased by $1.9 million, or 21.3%, to $10.7 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, from $8.8 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, primarily as a result of the full year impact of a new wealth management system and the partial year impact of higher data processing fees associated the Northmark merger.
• Nonoperating expenses increased by $1.9 million, or 173.6%, to $3.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, from $1.1 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2021, primarily due to merger expenses and contractual termination costs.

Non-GAAP Measures

This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). This information includes operating net income and operating diluted earnings per share, tangible book value per share and the tangible common equity ratio, operating return on average assets, operating return on tangible common equity, and operating efficiency ratio.

Operating net income and operating diluted earnings per share exclude items that management believes are unrelated to its core banking business such as merger and acquisition expenses, gain (loss) on disposition of investment securities, and other items. The Company's management uses operating net income and operating diluted earnings per share to measure the strength of the Company's core banking business and to identify trends that may to some extent be obscured by such excluded gains or losses.

Management also supplements its evaluation of financial performance with an analysis of tangible book value per share (which is computed by dividing shareholders' equity less goodwill and acquisition related intangible assets, or "tangible common equity," by common shares outstanding), the tangible common equity ratio (which is computed by dividing tangible common equity by tangible assets, defined as total assets less goodwill and acquisition related intangibles), return on average assets and return on tangible common equity on an operating basis, and the operating efficiency ratio (which is computed by dividing noninterest expense adjusted for non-operating expenses and total revenue adjusted for gain/(loss) on disposition of investment securities). The Company has included information on these non-GAAP financial measures because the Company believes that investors may find it useful to have access to the same analytical tool used by management. As a result of merger and acquisition activity, the Company has recognized goodwill and other intangible assets in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Excluding the impact of goodwill and other intangibles in measuring asset and capital values for the ratios provided, along with other bank standard capital ratios, provides a framework to compare the capital adequacy of the Company to other companies in the financial services industry.
