(1)	Total funding is the sum of interest-bearing liabilities and noninterest-bearing deposits. The cost of total funding is calculated as annualized total interest expense divided by average total funding.

Loans. The increases in average yield for the current quarter and year-to-date period compared with the same periods of 2022 were primarily due to an increase in overall interest rates on loans from the rising interest rate environment, partially offset by decreases in net accretion of discount on loans and net amortization of deferred loan fees from the decreased amount of SBA PPP loan payoffs.

The following table presents a composition of total loans by interest rate type accompanied with the weighted-average contractual rates as of the dates indicated:

		9/30/2023						6/30/2023						12/31/2022						9/30/2022

Investment Securities. The increases in average yield for the current quarter and year-to-date period were primarily due to a decrease in net amortization of premiums on securities and higher yield on newly purchased investment securities.

Other Interest-Earning Assets. The increases in average yield for the current quarter and year-to-date period were primarily due to an increased interest rate on cash held at the Federal Reserve Bank.

Interest-Bearing Deposits. The increases in average cost for the current quarter and year-to-date period were primarily due to an increase in market rates and the migration of noninterest-bearing demand deposits to interest-bearing deposits attributable to the rising market rates. To retain existing and attract new customers, the Bank offers competitive rates on deposit products in the rising interest rate environment.

(1)	Provision for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures for previous and year-ago quarters were recorded in Other Expense on Consolidated Statements of Income (Unaudited).

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 326, also known as the current expected credit losses (“CECL”) accounting standard, through the application of the modified retrospective transition approach. Provision (reversal) for credit losses and ACL for reporting periods beginning with January 1, 2023 are presented under ASC 326, while prior period comparisons continue to be presented under legacy ASC 450 and ASC 310 in this release. See CECL Adoption and Allowance for Credit Losses sections included in the Balance Sheet section of this release for additional information.

The provision for credit losses on loans for the current quarter was primarily due to an increase in loan held-for-investment. The reversal for credit losses for the current year-to-date period was primarily due to net recoveries and the improvement in the economic forecast.

Salaries and Employee Benefits. The increases for the current quarter and year-to-date period compared with the same periods of 2022 were primarily due to increases in salaries and other employee benefit expense, partially offset by decreases in bonus accruals and incentives tied to sales of SBA loans originated at loan production offices. The number of full-time equivalent employees was 270, 272 and 274 as of September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively.

Occupancy and Equipment. The increases for the current quarter and year-to-date period compared with the same periods of 2022 were primarily due to new branch openings during the second half of 2022. During the second half of 2022, the Company opened 3 new full-service branches in Dallas and Carrollton, Texas and Palisades Park, New Jersey.

Professional Fees. The increases for the current quarter and year-to-date period compared with the same periods of 2022 were primarily due to increases in audit and consulting fees.

Marketing and Business Promotion. The increase for the current quarter compared with the previous quarter was primarily due to an increase in advertisements and the Company’s 20^th anniversary celebration.

Director fees and expenses. The decrease for the current quarter compared with the previous quarter was primarily due to the retirement of a director during the previous quarter.

Regulatory Assessments. The increases for the current quarter and year-to-date period compared with the same periods of 2022 were due to an increase in FDIC assessment rates. During the previous quarter, an adjustment of $113 thousand was made for the first quarter of 2023. The FDIC increased the initial base deposit insurance assessment rate schedules by two basis points beginning in the first quarterly assessment period of 2023.

Other Expense. The increases for the current quarter and year-to-date period were primarily due to increases in office expenses and armed guard expenses attributable to the branch network expansion. Provision (reversal) for credit losses on off-balance credit exposures of $(10) thousand and $28 thousand was included in other expense for the year-ago quarter and previous year-to-date period, respectively, while the provision (reversal) for the current reporting periods beginning January 1, 2023 was included in provision (reversal) for credit losses.

Balance Sheet (Unaudited)

Total assets were $2.57 billion at September 30, 2023, an increase of $11.6 million, or 0.5%, from $2.56 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $147.9 million, or 6.1%, from $2.42 billion at December 31, 2022, and an increase of $240.9 million, or 10.4%, from $2.33 billion at September 30, 2022. The increase for the current quarter was primarily due to an increase in loans held-for-investment, partially offset by decreases in cash and cash equivalents and loans held-for-sale. The increase for the year-to-date period was primarily due to increases in cash and cash equivalents and loans held-for-investment, partially offset by a decrease in loans held-for-sale.

CECL Adoption

On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the provisions of ASC 326 through the application of the modified retrospective transition approach. The initial adjustment to the ACL reflects the expected lifetime credit losses associated with the composition of financial assets within in the scope of ASC 326 as of January 1, 2023, as well as management’s current expectation of future economic conditions. The Company recorded a net decrease of $1.9 million to the beginning balance of retained earnings as of January 1, 2023 for the cumulative effect adjustment, reflecting an initial adjustment to the ACL on loans of $1.1 million and the ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures of $1.6 million, net of related deferred tax assets arising from temporary differences of $788 thousand. As a part of the adoption of ASC 326, the Company reviewed and revised certain loan segments for the Company’s ACL model. See Loan Segments Revision section of this release for a reconciliation of revised loan segments to legacy loan segments, which were utilized before the adoption of ASC 326.

The increase for the current year-to-date period was primarily due to new accounts of $469.0 million, renewals of the matured accounts of $291.3 million and balance increases of $17.1 million, partially offset by matured and closed accounts of $565.8 million.

Loan Segments Revision (Unaudited)

($ in thousands)

As a part of the adoption of ASC 326, the Company reviewed and revised certain loan segments for the Company’s ACL model. Before the adoption of ASC 326, commercial property and SBA property loans were separately presented and represented 63.0% and 6.6% of loans held-for-investment at December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company re-divided these loan segments into commercial property (non-owner occupied), business property (owner occupied) and multifamily loans as these new loan segments are determined to share similar characteristics under the Company’s ACL model. In addition, four loan segments before the adoption of ASC 326 (commercial term loans, commercial lines of credit, SBA term loans and SBA PPP loans), which represented 12.2% of loans held-for-investment at December 31, 2022, are combined into a single loan segment, commercial and industrial loans, as these loans are determined to share similar risk characteristics under the Company’s ACL model. In this release, loan segments on loan related disclosures for prior period comparisons are revised accordingly in order to be comparable to the Company’s new loan segments.

The following table presents a reconciliation of revised loan segments to legacy loan segments, which were utilized before the adoption of ASC 326:

Non-GAAP Measures

($ in thousands)

Return on average tangible common equity, tangible common equity per common share and tangible common equity to total assets ratios

The Company's TCE is calculated by subtracting preferred stock from shareholders’ equity. The Company does not have any intangible assets for the presented periods. Return on average TCE, TCE per common share, and TCE to total assets constitute supplemental financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP measures are used by management in its analysis of the Company's performance. These non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as substitutes for results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP measures that may be presented by other companies. The following tables provide reconciliations of the non-GAAP measures with financial measures defined by GAAP.
