    CBTX, Inc. Third Quarter 2022 Results

    CBTX’s net interest income in the third quarter 2022 increased $11.8 million, or 37.6%, to $43.0 million from $31.2 million for the third quarter 2021 and increased $8.1 million, or 23.3%, from $34.9 million for the second quarter 2022. These increases were primarily due to increased interest income on loans and interest-bearing deposits at other financial institutions as a result of changes in market interest rates and increases in average loans and securities. The net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis increased 103 basis points to 4.25% for the third quarter 2022 from 3.22% for the third quarter 2021 and increased 76 basis points from 3.49% for the second quarter 2022.

    Noninterest income for the third quarter 2022 was $3.4 million, a decrease of $2.1 million, or 38.0%, compared to $5.6 million for the third quarter 2021 and a decrease of $97 thousand, or 2.7%, compared to $3.5 million for the second quarter 2022. The decrease in noninterest income of $2.1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021, was primarily due to the impact of earnings on bank-owned life insurance and related gains of $1.9 million during the third quarter of 2021.

    Noninterest expense for the third quarter 2022 increased $4.9 million, or 20.3%, to $29.3 million from $24.4 million for the third quarter 2021 and increased $5.6 million, or 23.4%, compared to the second quarter of 2022. The increase in noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2021, was primarily due to acquisition and merger-related expenses associated with the merger with Allegiance, partially offset by a decrease in professional and director fees, primarily related to BSA/AML compliance matters and legal fees incurred during the third quarter of 2021. The increase in noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2022 was primarily due to greater acquisition and merger-related expenses.

    CBTX’s efficiency ratio decreased to 63.11% for the third quarter 2022 compared to 66.21% for the third quarter 2021 and increased from 61.84% for the second quarter 2022. Third quarter 2022 annualized returns on average assets, average equity and average tangible equity were 1.16%, 9.40% and 11.15%, respectively, compared to 1.37%, 10.15% and 11.95% for the third quarter 2021. Annualized returns on average assets, average equity and average tangible equity for the second quarter 2022 were 1.08%, 8.75% and 10.38%, respectively. Return on average tangible equity is a non-GAAP measure. Please refer to the non-GAAP reconciliation on page 11.

    CBTX, Inc.
    GAAP Reconciliation and Management’s Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
    (Unaudited)

    CBTX’s management uses certain non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures to evaluate its performance. CBTX believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing CBTX’s performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods. Specifically, CBTX reviews pre-tax, pre-provision income, adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income, adjusted efficiency ratio, tangible book value per share, return on average tangible equity and the ratio of tangible equity to tangible assets for internal planning and forecasting purposes. CBTX has included in this earnings release information relating to these non-GAAP financial measures for the applicable periods presented.  These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which CBTX calculates the non-GAAP financial measures may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.

    Allegiance Bancshares, Inc.
    GAAP Reconciliation and Management’s Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
    (Unaudited)

    Allegiance’s management uses certain non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures to evaluate its performance. Allegiance believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing Allegiance’s performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods. Specifically, Allegiance reviews pre-tax, pre-provision income, adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income, adjusted efficiency ratio, tangible book value per share, return on average tangible equity and the ratio of tangible equity to tangible assets for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Allegiance has included in this Earnings Release information relating to these non-GAAP financial measures for the applicable periods presented.  These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which Allegiance calculates the non-GAAP financial measures may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.
