EARNINGS RELEASE

USCB Financial Holdings, Inc. Reports Fully Diluted EPS of $0.34 for Q4

2024 and doubles the quarterly dividend

to $0.10 per share; ROAA of 1.08% and ROAE of 12.73%

MIAMI, FL – January 23, 2025 – USCB Financial Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”)

(NASDAQ: USCB)

, the holding company for

U.S.

Century

Bank

(the

“Bank”),

reported

net

income

of

$6.9

million

or

$0.34

per

fully

diluted

share

for

the

three

months

ended

December 31, 2024, compared with net income of $2.7 million or $0.14

per fully diluted share for the same period in 2023.

“The results in Q4 2024, highlight a record year for USCB.

The team outperformed our internal budget and delivered impressive results

for our shareholders. A year

ago, we posted $0.14

per share in diluted

EPS in Q4 2023

and more than doubled

those earnings this quarter

to $0.34 per

share. Our continued

focus on reducing

deposit costs has contributed

to the net interest

margin (NIM) expansion,

helping

us maintain solid profitability. While we did experience

an increase in non-interest expense, primarily due to non-routine items, overall

profitability was consistent with the

third quarter. Given the earnings power of

the Company, outlook for 2025, and strong

capital levels,

the board approved to double the quarterly cash dividend to $0.10 per share. For 2025, we remain focused on managing operating costs

efficiently to

drive sustainable

performance and

delivering value

to our

shareholders.” said

Luis de

la Aguilera,

Chairman, President,

and CEO.

our ability to comply with the extensive laws and regulations

to

which we are subject, including the laws for each jurisdiction where

commercial real estate; the effects of climate change; the concentration

of ownership of our common stock; fluctuations in the price of our

information determined by methods other than in accordance

with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). This financial

information includes certain operating performance measures.

Management has included these non-GAAP financial measures

because it believes these measures may provide useful supplemental

information for evaluating the Company’s expectations and underly

ing performance trends. Further, management uses these

measures in managing and evaluating the Company’s business and

intends to refer to them in discussions about our operations and

performance. Operating performance measures should be viewed

in addition to, and not as an alternative to or substitute for, measures

determined in accordance with GAAP, and are not necessarily

comparable to non-GAAP measures that may be presented by other

companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the

most directly comparable GAAP measures can be found in the Non-GAAP

financial measures reconciliation tables included in this presentation.

Routine Increases: $362k Salaries and employee benefits increased

$110 thousand due to merit increases and higher replacement

cost of personnel. Consulting and legal expenses increased $218 thousand

due to timing of billings throughout the year. Other operating

expense increased $104 thousand mainly due to internet banking fees

and item processing expenses. Occupancy, regulatory assessment

and fees, and network and information technology had a net decrease

of $70 thousand. Q4’24 Non-Routine Increases: $1,038k Diluted EPS

Impact ($0.04) Salaries and employee benefits increased $620 thousand

due to restricted stock award expense (a shorter initial vesting

period; annual expense was recognized in two months). Legal expenses

increased $173 thousand for various items for which we expect

reimbursement in coming quarters. Other operating expense increased

$174 thousand related to forced-place insurance related

to borrowers. The Company expects to receive reimbursements in coming quarters.

Additionally, other operating expense increase due to $71

thousand excise tax related to the Company’s stock repurchases

pursuant to its previously announced

stock repurchase programs. Annualized. 15
