National Bank Holdings Corporation Announces

Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results

**** ​

Denver, Colorado - (Globe Newswire) – National Bank Holdings Corporation (NYSE: NBHC) reported:

For the quarter
3Q21 2Q21 3Q20
Net income ($000's) $ 19,825 $ 24,200 $ 27,893
Earnings per share - diluted $ 0.64 $ 0.77 $ 0.90
Return on average tangible assets^(1)^ 1.14% 1.41% 1.76%
Return on average tangible common equity^(1)^ 10.65% 13.41% 16.49%

(1) Ratios are annualized. See non-GAAP reconciliations starting on page 14.

In announcing these results, Chief Executive Officer Tim Laney shared, “We are pleased with this quarter’s results, delivering quarterly earnings of $0.64 per diluted share and pre-provision net revenue growth of 16.2% annualized over the prior quarter. Excluding PPP loans, our teams delivered impressive annualized loan growth of 16.5% fueled by record quarterly loan originations. Our prudent approach to extending new credit continues to result in excellent credit quality with just two basis points of annualized net charge-offs for the quarter. We maintain ample liquidity and a strong Common Equity Tier 1 ratio of 14.57% which serves as a source of strength as we execute on our growth strategies.”

Mr. Laney added, “Earlier this quarter, we announced strategic investments in two fintech firms, Finstro Global Holdings Inc. and Figure Technologies. Finstro and Figure are our initial partners working with NBH to introduce a comprehensive digital financial ecosystem serving small and medium-sized businesses. We believe we are on the verge of creating a business that will provide small and medium-sized businesses with access to a full range of banking services and block chain payment alternatives.”

Third Quarter 2021 Results

(All comparisons refer to the second quarter of 2021, except as noted)

Net income totaled $19.8 million, or $0.64 per diluted share, during the third quarter of 2021, compared to $24.2 million, or $0.77 per diluted share during the second quarter. The return on average tangible assets was 1.14%, compared to 1.41%, and the return on average tangible common equity was 10.65%, compared to 13.41% last quarter.

Net Interest Income

Fully taxable equivalent net interest income totaled $48.9 million during the third quarter of 2021, an increase of $2.7 million. Excluding PPP loan fee income of $2.6 million, which was $0.5 million higher than last quarter, net interest income increased $2.2 million or 19.8% annualized. As of September 30, 2021, the remaining unamortized PPP loan fees totaled $2.4 million. The fully taxable equivalent net interest margin widened 11 basis points to 2.93% driven by excess cash liquidity being deployed into higher yielding originated loans. The yield on earning assets increased eight basis points, with the cost of deposits decreasing three basis points to 0.21%.

1

Loans

Total loans ended the quarter at $4.4 billion, an increase of $121.0 million over the prior quarter. Excluding PPP loans, total loans increased $173.9 million or 16.5% annualized, led by commercial loan growth of $138.2 million, or 19.2% annualized. Third quarter loan originations totaled a record $413.3 million, led by commercial loan originations of $301.7 million.

Asset Quality and Provision for Loan Losses

Net loan loss provision recorded during the quarter was zero compared to a release of $5.9 million in the prior quarter. The quarter’s loan growth was offset by strong asset quality and an improved outlook in the CECL model’s underlying economic forecast. Annualized net charge-offs totaled 0.02% of total loans, compared to 0.07%. Non-performing loans (comprised of non-accrual loans and non-accrual TDRs) improved three basis points to 0.29% of total loans, and non-performing assets improved five basis points to 0.39% of total loans and OREO. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans totaled 1.11%, compared to 1.14% at June 30, 2021.

Deposits

Average total deposits increased $33.9 million or 2.2% annualized, to $6.1 billion for the third quarter 2021. Average transaction deposits (defined as total deposits less time deposits) increased $67.6 million or 5.2% annualized. The mix of transaction deposits to total deposits improved 72 basis points to 85.7% at September 30, 2021. The loan to deposit ratio totaled 72.1% at September 30, 2021, compared to 69.8% at June 30, 2021.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income totaled $28.5 million, an increase of $3.3 million largely driven by higher mortgage banking income, which included a $1.3 million gain from the sale of mortgage servicing rights. Service charges and bank card fees increased a combined $0.3 million during the quarter. Included in other non-interest income was $0.8 million of deposit premium gain from the sale of one banking center during the third quarter. Additionally, other non-interest income included $0.4 million and $0.8 million of gains from fixed assets sales from banking center consolidations during the third and second quarters, respectively.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense totaled $51.3 million, an increase of $5.0 million, primarily due to transaction-related costs and higher performance-related compensation. Included in the quarter were $2.4 million of transaction-related expenses for the previously announced strategic investments in Finstro Global Holdings Inc. and Figure Technologies to further our vision for building a comprehensive digital financial ecosystem. Salaries and benefits increased $1.1 million largely due to higher performance-related compensation. Problem asset workout expense increased $0.8 million due to the write-down of one previously acquired OREO property. The fully taxable equivalent efficiency ratio totaled 65.9% at September 30, 2021, compared to 64.5% at June 30, 2021.

Income tax expense totaled $5.0 million during the third quarter, compared to $5.4 million. The effective tax rate for the third quarter 2021 was 20.0%, compared to 18.4% during the prior quarter, driven by an increase in the full year projected income. The lower rate compared to the statutory rate reflects the continued success of our tax strategies and tax-exempt income.

Capital

Capital ratios continue to be strong and in excess of federal bank regulatory agency “well capitalized” thresholds. The Tier 1 leverage ratios at September 30, 2021 for the consolidated company and NBH Bank were 10.43% and 8.91%, respectively. Shareholders’ equity totaled $844.7 million at September 30, 2021, decreasing $7.2 million primarily due to stock repurchase activity during the quarter.

Common book value per share increased $0.23 to $27.89 at September 30, 2021. The quarter’s earnings, net of dividends paid and share repurchases, increased the tangible common book value per share by $0.19 to $24.20 at September 30, 2021. Excluding accumulated other comprehensive income, the tangible book value per share increased $0.29 to $24.24 at September 30, 2021.

Recent Events

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused disruption and is likely to continue to present challenges to our business. We continue to remain committed to ensuring our associates, clients and communities are receiving the support they need through our banking centers and our

2

​ digital banking platform. Our teams have been working diligently to support our clients who are experiencing financial hardship due to COVID-19 through participation in the SBA’s Paycheck Protection Program, including assistance with PPP loan forgiveness applications, and loan modifications, as needed. While access to vaccines in the United States has increased, the efficacy of those vaccines, the impact of emerging targeted vaccine mandates and new variants of the virus, and the length of time that the government-mandated measures must remain in place or potentially be reinstituted to address COVID-19 are unknown. The pandemic has had a negative impact to the U.S. labor market, consumer spending and business operations, and it is not clear whether new outbreaks of COVID-19 cases will have further impact.

Year-Over-Year Review

(All comparisons refer to the first nine months of 2020, except as noted)

Net income totaled $70.8 million, or $2.27 per diluted share, an increase of $9.4 million or 15.3% over the first nine months of 2020. The return on average tangible assets increased three basis points to 1.39%, and the return on average tangible common equity increased 57 basis points to 13.04%.

Fully taxable equivalent net interest income totaled $141.5 million, decreasing $6.7 million or 4.5%, as a result of interest rate actions taken by the Federal Reserve during 2020 and lower non-PPP loan balances. Average earning assets increased $785.1 million, or 13.8%, primarily driven by increases in average interest bearing cash balances of $671.0 million and average investment securities of $411.5 million. The fully taxable equivalent net interest margin narrowed 56 basis points to 2.92% due to lower earning asset yields. The yield on earning assets decreased 82 basis points, driven by the remix of assets into lower-yielding cash balances. The cost of deposits decreased 25 basis points to 0.24%.

Loans outstanding totaled $4.4 billion, decreasing $134.4 million or 2.9%, due to loan payoffs including lower PPP loan balances of $271.5 million as a result of PPP loan forgiveness, which were partially offset by non-PPP loan growth. New loan originations over the trailing 12 months totaled $1.3 billion, led by commercial loan originations of $895.8 million including PPP loan originations of $121.1 million.

The Company recorded $9.4 million of net provision release during the first nine months of 2021, compared to $17.6 million of provision expense during the same period in 2020. The provision release was driven by strong asset quality and an improved outlook in the CECL model’s underlying economic forecast. Annualized net charge-offs totaled 0.03% of total loans, compared to 0.04% of total loans during the first nine months of 2020. Non-performing loans to total loans improved 12 basis points to 0.29%, compared to 0.41% at September 30, 2020. The allowance for credit losses totaled 1.11% of total loans, compared to 1.34% at September 30, 2020.

Average total deposits increased $865.7 million or 16.9%, to $6.0 billion for the first nine months of 2021. Average non-interest bearing demand deposits increased $956.6 million or 70.2%, and average transaction deposits increased $977.7 million, or 23.9%. The mix of transaction deposits to total deposits increased by 400 basis points to 85.7% at September 30, 2021. The mix of non-interest bearing demand deposits to total deposits improved to 39.9% from 27.3% at September 30, 2020.

Non-interest income totaled $87.1 million, representing a decrease of $19.8 million or 18.5%, driven by $26.3 million lower mortgage banking income due to slower refinance activity in 2021 and competition driving tighter gain on sale margins. Service charges and bank card fees increased a combined $2.0 million. Other non-interest income increased $4.6 million due to $3.5 million of gains from banking center-related sales activities during the first nine months of 2021.

Non-interest expense totaled $147.3 million, a decrease of $10.4 million or 6.6% driven by lower mortgage-related compensation as well as the Company’s strategic efforts to improve operating efficiency. Included in the nine months of 2021 were $2.5 million of transaction-related expenses for the previously announced investments in our digital financial ecosystem. Salaries and benefits decreased $10.7 million primarily due to lower mortgage banking related compensation. Occupancy and equipment decreased $1.7 million largely due to efficiencies gained from the completion of the previously announced banking center consolidations. Problem asset workout expense decreased $0.5 million.

3

​ Income tax expense totaled $16.1 million, an increase of $1.6 million, driven by 2021’s higher pre-tax income. Included in income tax expense was $0.4 million of tax benefit and $0.1 million of tax expense from stock compensation activity during the first nine months of 2021 and 2020, respectively. Adjusting for stock compensation activity, the effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2021 was 18.9%, consistent with 2020.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain of the financial measures and ratios we present, including “tangible assets,” “return on average tangible assets,” “tangible common equity,” “return on average tangible common equity,” “tangible common book value per share,” “tangible common book value, excluding accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax,” “tangible common book value per share, excluding accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of tax,” “tangible common equity to tangible assets,” and “fully taxable equivalent” metrics, are supplemental measures that are not required by, or are not presented in accordance with, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). 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.
