Current report
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Current report
In addition to results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, this quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains certain non-GAAP financial measures, including operating net income, operating noninterest expense, operating noninterest income, operating earnings per share, basic, operating earnings per share, diluted, operating return on average assets, operating return on average shareholders’ equity, operating efficiency ratio, tangible shareholders’ equity, tangible assets, tangible book value per share, and efficiency ratio. The Company’s management believes that the supplemental non-GAAP information is utilized by regulators and market analysts to evaluate a Company’s financial condition and therefore, such information is useful to investors. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.
Current report
BOLI. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company surrendered $46.7 million of existing BOLI policies that were earning an annualized yield of 3.08%. Prior to the surrender of the policies, the Company purchased an additional $50.0 million of BOLI policies, which are currently yielding 4.81%. As a result of the surrender of the BOLI policies, the Company incurred $1.6 million of income tax and penalty, which the Company expects to earn back in less than two years. The insurance carriers have six months to pay out the proceeds from the surrendered policies, and as a result, the Company expects BOLI to be at higher balances and to continue earning income related to the increase in cash surrender value until the proceeds are received, which will further shorten the earn-back period on the income tax and penalty amount.

Accrued expenses and other liabilities. Accrued expenses and other liabilities decreased $11.8 million, or 14.5%, to $69.5 million as of September 30, 2024 from $81.3 million as of December 31, 2023. The decrease resulted from $15.8 million in IPO-related and other accrued expenses, $5.6 million reduction in accrued incentive bonuses resulting from bonuses being paid partially offset by current period accruals, and a $2.6 million reduction in allowance for credit losses on unfunded commitments; offset partially by a $5.6 million increase in deferred solar tax credit investments resulting from a future expected capital call, a $2.6 million increase in deferred tax liabilities related to a basis reduction on solar tax credits, a $2.5 million increase in lease liabilities resulting from a lease extension and a $1.7 million increase in accrued interest on brokered deposits resulting from increased utilization of brokered deposits.

The Company estimates the allowance for credit losses in accordance with the CECL methodology for loans measured at amortized cost. The allowance for credit losses is established based upon the Company's current estimate of expected lifetime credit losses.
Current wording
The Company estimates the allowance for credit losses in accordance with the CECL methodology for loans measured at amortized cost. The allowance for credit losses is established based upon the Company's current estimate of expected lifetime credit losses. Arriving at an appropriate amount of allowance for credit losses involves a high degree of judgment.
Previous wording
Loans that no longer share similar risk characteristics with any pools of assets are subject to individual assessment and are removed from the collectively assessed pools to avoid double counting. For the loans that are individually assessed, the Company uses either a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) approach or a fair value of collateral approach. The latter approach is used for loans deemed to be collateral dependent or when foreclosure is probable. Changes in these judgements and assumptions could be due to a number of circumstances which may have a direct impact on the provision for credit losses and may result in changes to the amount of allowance. The allowance for credit losses is increased by the provision for credit losses and by recoveries of loans previously charged off. Credit losses are charged against the allowance when management's assessments confirm that the Company will not collect the full amortized cost basis of a loan.

Previous wording
We classify our debt securities as available-for-sale, which are carried at fair value. We obtain our fair values from one or more third-party services. These services’ fair value calculations are based on quoted market prices when such prices are available. If quoted market prices are not available, estimates of fair value are computed using a variety of techniques, including extrapolation from the quoted prices of similar instruments or recent trades for thinly traded securities, fundamental analysis, or through obtaining purchase quotes. Due to the subjective nature of the valuation process, it is possible that the actual fair values of these investments could differ from the estimated amounts, thereby affecting our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Previous wording
For any debt security with a fair value less than its amortized cost basis, we will determine whether we have the intent to sell the debt security or whether it is more likely than not we will be required to sell the debt security before the recovery of its amortized cost basis. If either condition is met, the Company will recognize a full impairment charge to earnings. For all other debt securities that don't meet either condition and that have expected credit losses, the credit loss will be recognized in earnings. Any non-credit related loss impairment related to all other factors will be recorded in other comprehensive income (loss). Management also assesses the nature of the unrealized losses taking into consideration factors such as changes in risk-free interest rates, general credit spread changes, market supply and demand, creditworthiness of the issuer, and quality of the underlying collateral.

The increase in our loan portfolio reflects our strategy to prudently grow the balance sheet by continuing to diversify into these higher-yielding loans to improve net margins and manage interest rate risk.

Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) Stock. The FHLB is a cooperative bank that provides services to its member financial institutions.

We held an investment in FHLB stock of $4.8 million and $14.6 million as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. The amount of stock we are required to purchase is in proportion to our FHLB borrowings and level of total assets. Accordingly, the decrease in the FHLB stock from December 31, 2023 to June 30, 2024 is due to the decrease in FHLB borrowings.
