Allowance for credit losses
Previous report
The allowance for credit losses ("ACL") represents management’s estimate of current expected credit losses over the life of a financial asset carried at amortized cost at an appropriate level based upon management’s evaluation of the adequacy of collectively and individually evaluated loss reserves.
Previous report
The ACL is maintained at a level that management believes is appropriate to provide for current expected credit losses as of the dates of the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition, and we have established methodologies for the determination of its adequacy. The methodologies are set forth in a formal policy and take into consideration relevant available information, from internal and external sources, relating to past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts. We increase our ACL by recording provisions for current expected credit losses against our income and decrease by charge‑offs, net of recoveries.
Previous report
The evaluation is inherently subjective, as it requires estimates that are susceptible to significant revision as more information becomes available. While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans and leases, changes in economic or other conditions may necessitate revision of the estimate in future periods.
Previous report
For each portfolio, management estimates expected credit losses over the life of each loan and lease utilizing lifetime or cumulative loss rate methodology. The lifetime loss rates are estimated by analyzing a combination of internal and external data related to historical performance of each loan and lease pool over a complete economic cycle. Loss rates are based on historical averages for each loan and lease pool, adjusted to reflect the impact of a forward-looking forecast of certain macroeconomic variables, primarily unemployment rates, which management considers to be both reasonable and supportable. Various economic scenarios are considered and weighted to arrive at the forecast that most reflects management’s expectation of future conditions. After a one-year forecast period, a one-year reversion period adjusts loss experience to the historical average on a straight-line basis.
Previous report
Management also considers qualitative risk factor adjustments that are intended to capture internal and external trends not reflected in historical loss history. Each risk factor is assigned an allowance level based on management’s judgment as to the expected impact of each risk factor on each loan and lease portfolio and is monitored quarterly. All loans and leases of $500,000 or greater with an internal risk rating of substandard or below, or on nonaccrual status, are individually evaluated for impairment on a quarterly basis.
Previous report
The Company also maintains an allowance for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures for unfunded loan commitments. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of expected credit losses on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life based on management’s consideration of past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable economic forecasts. Management tracks the level and trends in unused commitments and takes into consideration the same factors as those considered for purposes of the allowance for credit losses on outstanding loans.
Previous report
Goodwill
Previous report
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase consideration over the fair value of net assets acquired in connection with our recapitalization and acquisitions using the acquisition method of accounting. Goodwill is not amortized but is periodically evaluated for impairment under the provisions of ASC Topic 350, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other ("ASC 350").
Previous report
Impairment testing is performed using either a qualitative or quantitative approach at the reporting unit level. Our goodwill is allocated to Byline Bank, which is our only applicable reporting unit for the purposes of testing goodwill for impairment. We have selected November 30 as the date to perform the annual goodwill impairment test. Additionally, we perform a goodwill impairment evaluation on an interim basis when events or circumstances indicate impairment potentially exists.
Previous report
Other intangible assets
Previous report
Other intangible assets primarily consist of core deposit intangible assets and customer relationship intangible. In valuing intangible assets, we consider variables such as servicing costs, attrition rates and market discount rates. Intangible assets are reviewed annually, or more frequently when events or changes in circumstances occur that indicate that their carrying values may not be recoverable. If the recoverable amount of the intangible asset is determined to be less than its carrying value, we would then measure the amount of impairment based on an estimate of the fair value at that time. We also evaluate whether the events or circumstances have occurred that warrant a revision to the remaining useful lives of intangible assets. In cases where a revision is deemed appropriate, the remaining carrying amounts of the intangible assets are amortized over the revised remaining useful life. Core deposit intangibles are currently amortized over an approximate ten-year period and customer intangibles are amortized over a twelve-year period.
Previous report
Fair value of Financial Instruments
Previous report
ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell a financial asset or paid to transfer a financial liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.
Previous report
The degree of management judgment involved in determining the fair value of assets and liabilities is dependent upon the availability of quoted market prices or observable market parameters. For financial instruments that trade actively and have quoted market prices or observable market parameters, there is minimal subjectivity involved in measuring fair value. When observable market prices and parameters are not available, management judgment is necessary to estimate fair value. In addition, changes in market conditions may reduce the availability of quoted prices or observable data. For example, reduced liquidity in the capital markets or changes in secondary market activities could result in observable market inputs becoming unavailable. Therefore, when market data is not available, we would use valuation techniques requiring more management judgment to estimate the appropriate fair value measurement.
Previous report
See Note 15 of our Unaudited Interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 30, 2025, included in this report, for a complete discussion of our use of fair value of financial assets and liabilities and their related measurement practices.
Previous report
(3) Calculation excludes merger-related expenses, secondary public offering of common stock expenses, loss on extinguishment of debt, and impairment of right-of-use assets.
Previous report
We reported consolidated net income of $37.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to net income of $30.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $6.9 million. The increase in net income was attributable to a $12.4 million increase in net interest income, a $2.2 million decrease in provision for credit losses, and a $1.5 million increase in non-interest income, offset by a $6.2 million increase in non-interest expense, and a $3.0 million increase to the provision for income taxes. Net income was $0.82 per basic and per diluted common share for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $0.70 and $0.69 per basic common share and per diluted common share, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Previous report
The increase in net interest income was mainly a result of lower rates paid on deposits. The increase in non-interest income was mainly due to an increase in net gains on sales of loans due to higher volume. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily due to higher incentive expense and increased health insurance in salaries and employee benefits.
Previous report
Our annualized return on average assets was 1.52% for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to 1.29% for the three months ended September 30, 2024.

Our adjusted efficiency ratio was 50.27% for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to 51.62% for the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Previous report
The increase in net interest income during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 mainly a result of decrease in costs of total interest-bearing liabilities. The increase in non-interest income was primarily the result of increased swap income. The increase in non-interest expense was primarily the result of an increase in salaries and employee benefits mainly related to the First Security acquisition and increased incentive compensation. The increase in provision for credit losses was mainly due to growth in the loan and lease portfolios and weakening macroeconomic conditions.
Previous report
Our annualized return on average assets was 1.34% for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to 1.32% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Previous report
Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was $284.1 million compared to $259.5 million during the same period in 2024, an increase of $24.5 million, or 9.5%. Interest income increased $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 primarily from growth in the loan and lease portfolio, offset by lower yields on loans and leases. Interest expense decreased by $22.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to the same period in 2024 mostly due lower rates paid on interest-bearing deposits, primarily time deposits.
Previous report
Net loan accretion income was $8.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $10.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $2.8 million due to acquired loans converting to originated and charge-offs of PCD loans. Total net loan accretion on acquired loans contributed 12 basis points to the net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to 17 basis points for the nine months ended September 30, 2024.
Previous report
Assuming no additional acquisitions, we expect loan accretion income to decline over time. Based on our portfolio, the estimated projected accretion income for the remaining periods as of September 30, 2025 is summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):
Previous report

Provision for credit losses - loans and leases was $25.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and $21.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $4.5 million. On April 1, 2025, a provision for credit losses of $864,000 was recorded on acquired non-credit-deteriorated loans related to the First Security acquisition. The provision for credit losses - unfunded commitments reflects a provision of $470,000 and a recapture of $1.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
Previous report
ATM and interchange fees were $1.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $128,000 or 11.1%, mainly due to lower ATM fees. ATM and interchange fees were $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $3.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $273,000 or 8.1%, primarily from decreases in ATM fees and interchange fees.
Previous report
Net gains on sales of loans were $7.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $5.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $1.1 million or 19.0%, driven mainly by higher volume. We sold $92.9 million of U.S. government guaranteed loans during the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $79.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024. Net gains on sales of loans were $17.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $17.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, a decrease of $100,000 or 0.6%, mainly due to a decrease in premiums. We sold $236.1 million of U.S. government guaranteed loans during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $225.9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. As a result of the U.S. government shutdown that began on October 1, 2025, the uncertainty surrounding our government guaranteed lending business may negatively impact our net gain on sales of loans. When the U.S. government reopens, we anticipate sales and related settlements will return to more normalized activity.

Our results of operations depend substantially on net interest income, which is the difference between interest income on interest-earning assets, consisting primarily of interest income on loans and lease receivables, including accretion income on loans, investment securities and other short-term investments, and interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities, consisting primarily of deposits and borrowings. Our results of operations are also dependent upon our generation of non-interest income, consisting primarily of income from fees and service charges on deposits, loan servicing revenue, wealth management and trust income, ATM and interchange fees, and net gains on sales of investment securities and loans. Other factors contributing to our results of operations include our provisions for credit losses, provision for income taxes, and non-interest expenses, such as salaries and employee benefits, occupancy and equipment expenses, and other miscellaneous operating costs.

Net interest income, representing interest income less interest expense, is a significant contributor to our revenues and earnings. We generate interest income from interest and dividends on interest-earning assets, which include loans, leases and investment securities we own. We incur interest expense from interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities, which include interest-bearing deposits, subordinated debt, Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances, junior subordinated debentures and other borrowings. To evaluate net interest income, we measure and monitor (i) yields on our loans and other interest-earning assets, (ii) the costs of our deposits and other funding sources, (iii) our net interest spread, and (iv) our net interest margin. Net interest spread is the difference between rates earned on interest-earning assets and rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest margin is calculated as the annualized net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets. Because non-interest-bearing sources of funds, such as non-interest-bearing deposits and stockholders’ equity, also fund interest-earning assets, net interest margin includes the benefit of these non-interest-bearing sources.

This accretion will continue to have an impact on our net interest income as long as loans acquired with a discount at acquisition represent a meaningful portion of our interest-earning assets. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, purchased credit deteriorated loans accounted for under ASC Topic 326 represented 1.6% and 1.8% of our total loan and lease portfolio, respectively.
