Tax exempt income is calculated on a tax-equivalent basis.
 
Tax-free municipal securities are exempt from federal
 
income taxes. The incremental federal income tax rate
used is 21.0%.
Income from Operations
Net income totaled $16.9
 
million, or $0.34 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2023, compared
 
to $16.0
 
million, or $0.33
per diluted common share, during the second quarter of 2023 and $17.3
 
million, or $0.35 per diluted common share, during the third
quarter of 2022. On a linked quarter basis, net income was higher due to increases in
 
net interest income and non-interest income as well
as lower non-interest expense,
 
partially offset by higher provision expense.
 
Compared to the same period in the prior year, the quarter’s
results were impacted by higher net interest income and non-interest
 
income that were more than offset by higher non-interest expense.
 
The third quarter included acquisition-related charges of $1.3 million
 
and Day 1 CECL provision expense on acquired loans of $0.9
million, resulting in adjusted net income of $18.6 million, or $0.37 per diluted
 
common share on an adjusted basis, compared to adjusted
net income of $17.3 million, or $0.35 per diluted common share, on
 
an adjusted basis for the second quarter of 2023.
Net Interest Income
Fully tax equivalent net interest income totaled $55.8 million for
 
the quarter, compared to $55.3 million for the second quarter of 2023, as
the benefit from higher average earning assets, higher loan yields and
 
one additional day were partially offset by higher cost of funds.
 
Net
interest margin – FTE narrowed to 3.19% primarily due to the impact of non-accrual
 
loan interest reversals.
 
Average earning assets increased $183 million compared to the prior quarter
 
primarily due to higher average loan balances, higher average
cash balances and the impact of the Tucson acquisition. The yield on earning assets widened 8 basis points
 
entirely due to stronger loan
yields from the repricing of variable rate loans as well as higher pricing on new loans,
 
partially offset by the impact of non-accrual loan
interest reversals.
 
The cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 23 basis points due to continued
 
pricing pressure on interest-bearing
deposits from the higher interest rate environment.
Compared to the third quarter of 2022, net interest income – FTE increased
 
$5.3 million while net interest margin - FTE decreased 37
basis points.
 
The higher income is due to 23% growth in average earning assets while the net
 
interest margin – FTE decreased as higher
loan yields were more than offset by a higher cost of funds due to the rising rate environment. The increase
 
in average earning assets was
entirely driven by higher average loan and investment balances, partially offset by
 
lower average cash balances.
 
The yield on earning
assets increased 1.79%
 
due to new loan production as well as repricing of variable rate loans.
 
The cost of funds increased 2.37% over the
same period due to pricing pressure on deposits as well as client migration
 
into higher cost deposit products compared to the prior year.

Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income increased $0.2 million compared to the second quarter
 
of 2023 and increased $2.2 million compared to the same
quarter in 2022. The increase in non-interest income compared to both prior periods
 
was due to increases in service charges and fees,
stronger credit card interchange income and other client-related non-interest
 
income.
 
Additionally,
 
gains on sale of loans decreased
compared to the prior quarter due to stronger SBA loan sales in the prior quarter.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense decreased $1.1 million from the second quarter of 202
 
3
 
and increased $7.9 million from the third quarter of 2022.
 
The third quarter of 2023 included $1.3 million of acquisition-related
 
expenses with $0.8 million included in professional fees, $0.3
million in salaries and employee benefits, $0.1 million in software and communication
 
,
 
and $0.1 million in other non-interest expense.
 
The second quarter of 2023 included $0.3 million of acquisition-related
 
expenses, most of which were included in professional fees, and
$1.3 million of employee separation costs included in salaries and employee
 
benefits. The third quarter of 2022 included $0.1
 
million of
acquisition-related expenses, which were included in advertising, professional
 
fees and other non-interest expense.
 
Excluding these
acquisition-related expenses and employee separation costs, non-interest expense
 
decreased $0.7 million compared to the second quarter of
2023
 
and increased $6.7 million compared to the third quarter of 2022.
 
On an adjusted basis, salaries and employee benefits were $1.0 million
 
lower than the prior quarter due to reductions in headcount.
Additionally, other non-interest expenses
 
decreased $0.3
 
million primarily due to a decrease in discretionary expenses. Partially offsetting
these decreases was a $0.4 million increase in other professional fees and a $0.1
 
million increase in occupancy expense. Core deposit
intangible amortization also increased $0.1 million due to the Tucson acquisition.
 
Compared to the third quarter of 2022, salaries and
employee benefits costs were higher due to the addition of employees
 
as part of the Colorado and New Mexico and Tucson acquisitions, as
well as merit increases. Occupancy costs increased due to the addition of
 
a second location in Dallas, Texas and new properties in
Colorado and New Mexico. Additionally, deposit insurance premiums increased due to growth in assets and a
 
higher assessment rate.
Software and communication expenses increased due to headcount
 
and client account growth as well as new technology implementation.
Core deposit intangible amortization expense also increased compared
 
to the prior year as a result of the previously mentioned
acquisitions.
 
The Company’s effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2023 was 21.3%,
 
as compared to 20.8% in the second quarter of 2023
 
and 20.3%
for the third quarter of 2022.
 
The higher rate for the third quarter of 2023 was primarily related to discrete impacts
 
of stock compensation
activity.
Statement of Financial Condition Performance & Analysis
During the third quarter of 2023, total assets increased slightly compared
 
to the end of the prior quarter and increased $1.3 billion, or 23%,
compared to September 30, 2022. Total assets increased on a linked quarter basis primarily
 
due to an increase in loans, primarily from the
Tucson acquisition.
 
The year-over-year increase was primarily due to an increase in loans of $1.3 billion, including
 
$0.5 billion in acquired
loans.
 
Deposits increased $0.2 billion compared to June 30, 2023, and increased $1.3
 
billion from September 30, 2022, including $0.7
billion in acquired deposits.
Loan Results
During the third quarter of 2023, loans increased
 
$149 million compared to June 30, 2023, including $106 million, net, from
 
the Tucson
acquisition.
 
Loans increased $1.3 billion, or 27%, compared to September 30, 2022, including
 
the impact of acquired loans which added
11%. The loan increase compared to September 30, 2022 was primarily due to
 
growth in the commercial and industrial, commercial real
estate – owner-occupied and commercial real estate – non-owner-occupied portfolios.

Deposit & Other Borrowing Results
During the third quarter of 2023, deposits increased 4%, compared
 
to June 30, 2023, and increased 27%, compared to September 30, 2022.
The deposit increase compared to June 30, 2023 was due to increases
 
in non-interest-bearing deposits, transaction deposits and savings and
money market deposits, partially offset by decreases in time deposits. Increases
 
in deposits include $165 million related to the Tucson
acquisition.
 
Decreases in time deposits were due to decreases in wholesale funding with increases in client
 
deposits more than offsetting
these amounts.
 
The total deposit increase compared to September 30, 2022 was due to
 
increases in transaction deposits, savings and money
market deposits and time deposits, including
 
acquired deposits, partially offset by decreases in non-interest-bearing deposits.

FHLB and Other borrowings ended the quarter at $106.6
 
million compared to $277.0 million in the linked quarter and $206.4 million
 
at
September 30, 2022.
 
Borrowings were reduced due to client deposit growth and acquired deposit balances
 
across both comparative
periods.
Asset Quality and Provision for Credit Losses
The Company recorded $3.3 million of provision expense, compared
 
to $2.6 million in the prior quarter and $3.3 million in the prior year
third quarter. The current quarter’s provision expense was driven by $0.9 million of Day 1 CECL provision for the Tucson acquisition
 
as
well as increases due to economic factors, specific reserves, and loan
 
growth. Provision expense was partially offset by a $1.6 million
reversal of reserves for unfunded commitments.
Non-performing assets increased $22.8 million to $36.1
 
million at September 30, 2023 primarily due to one commercial and industrial
credit and one commercial real estate – non-owner-occupied credit
 
that moved to nonaccrual during the quarter and several credits
 
that
were 90+ days past due and still accruing at quarter-end. Annualized net charge-offs were 0.09% for the quarter
 
compared to 0.04% in the
prior quarter and 0.16% in the prior year third quarter.
The allowance for credit losses was $71.6 million and increased to 1.20% of outstanding
 
loans at September 30, 2023. The combined
allowance for credit losses and accrual for off-balance sheet credit risk from
 
unfunded commitments (“RUC”) was $77.7 million or 1.31%
of outstanding loans which was slightly higher compared to the linked quarter
 
and lower than the prior year third quarter due to a reduction
in unfunded commitments and the related reserve.

Capital Position
At September 30, 2023, stockholders' equity totaled $643 million, or
 
$13.04 of book value per common share, compared to $651 million,
or $13.39 of book value per common share, at June 30, 2023. The decrease
 
was due to an increase in accumulated other comprehensive
loss from the unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities, net of tax, partially
 
offset by net income and the issuance of shares as part of
the consideration in the Tucson acquisition.
 
Tangible book value per common share
(1)
 
was $12.23 at September 30, 2023, a decrease of $0.44, or 3%, from June 30, 2023.
 
The ratio of
common equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets was approximately 9.7%,
 
and the ratio of total capital to risk-weighted assets was
approximately 10.9% at September 30, 2023.

Cautionary Notice about Forward-Looking Statements
The financial results in this press release reflect preliminary, unaudited
 
results, which are not final until the Company’s Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q is filed. This earnings release contains forward-looking statements regarding,
 
among other things, our business plans;
expansion and growth opportunities; post-closing plans, objectives, expectations
 
and intentions with respect to the Tucson acquisition;
expense control initiatives;
 
anticipated expenses, cash requirements and sources of liquidity; capital
 
allocation strategies and plans; and
future financial performance. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of
 
words or phrases such as “growth,”
“planned,” “guidance,” “believe,” “future,” “opportunity,” “anticipated,”
 
“expectations,” “expect,” “will,” “could,” “goal,” “focused,”
“work toward,” “aim,” “intend,” “position” and similar words or phrases of
 
a future or forward-looking nature. The inclusion of forward-
looking information herein should not be regarded as a representation by
 
us or any other person that the future plans, estimates or
expectations contemplated by us will be achieved.
 
These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current
expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, management’s
 
beliefs, certain assumptions made by management, and financial
trends that may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy
 
or financial needs, many of which, by their nature,
are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Our actual results could
 
differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking
statements.
Accordingly, we caution you that any such forward-looking statements are not
 
guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks,
assumptions, estimates and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Although we believe that the expectations reflected
 
in these forward-
looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, actual results may prove to
 
be materially different from the results expressed or
implied by the forward-looking statements due to a number of factors,
 
including , without limitation, the following: impact on us and our
clients of a decline in general business and economic conditions and
 
any regulatory responses thereto, including uncertainty and volatility
in the financial markets; interest rate fluctuations; our ability to effectively execute
 
our growth strategy and manage our growth, including
identifying and consummating suitable mergers and acquisitions, our ability
 
to successfully integrate Canyon Bancorporation, Inc. and
Canyon Community Bank, N.A., entering new lines of business or offering
 
new or enhanced services or products; fluctuations in fair value
of our investments due to factors outside of our control; our ability to successfully
 
manage credit risk and the sufficiency of our allowance;
geographic concentration of our markets; economic impact on our commercial
 
real estate and commercial-based loan portfolios, including
declines in commercial
 
and residential real estate values; an increase in non-performing assets; our ability to attract,
 
hire and retain key
personnel; maintaining and increasing customer deposits, funding
 
availability,
 
liquidity and our ability to raise and maintain sufficient
capital; competition from banks, credit unions and other financial services providers;
 
the effectiveness of our risk management framework;
accounting estimates; our ability to maintain effective internal control
 
over financial reporting; our ability to keep pace with technological
changes; cyber incidents or other failures, disruptions or security breaches;
 
employee error, fraud committed against the Company or our
clients, or incomplete or inaccurate information about clients and counterparties;
 
mortgage markets; our ability to maintain our reputation;
costs and effects of litigation; environmental liability; risk exposure from
 
transactions with financial counterparties; severe weather, natural
disasters, pandemics, acts of war or terrorism or other external events; and
 
changes in laws, rules, regulations, interpretations or policies
relating to financial institutions, including stringent capital requirements,
 
higher FDIC insurance premiums and assessments, consumer
protection laws and privacy laws. These and other factors that could cause results to differ materially from
 
those described in the forward-
looking statements, as well as a discussion of the risks and uncertainties that may
 
affect our business, can be found in our Annual Report
on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and in other
 
filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These
forward-looking statements are made as of the date hereof, and we disclaim any obligation to
 
update any forward-looking statement or to
publicly
 
announce the results of any revisions to any of the forward-looking statements included
 
herein, except as required by law.

TABLE 5. NON-GAAP FINANCIAL
 
MEASURES
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial measures determined in accordance
 
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the
Company discloses non-GAAP financial measures in this release including “tangible common
 
stockholders’ equity,” “tangible book value
per common share,” “adjusted efficiency ratio – fully tax equivalent
 
(FTE),” “adjusted net income,” “adjusted diluted earnings per
common share,” “adjusted return on average assets (ROAA),” and “adjusted return
 
on average common equity (ROCE).”
 
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
 
gains that we believe are not indicative of our primary business operating
results. 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 follows.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS CROSSFIRST
 
BANKSHARES, INC. The financial results in this presentation
 
reflect preliminary, unaudited results, which are not final until
 
the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is filed. This
 
presentation and oral statements made relating to this presentation
 
contain forward-looking statements regarding, among other
 
things, our business plans; expansion targets and opportunities;
 
post-closing plans, objectives, expectations and intentions with respect
 
to the Tucson acquisition; expense management initiatives and
 
the results expected to be realized from those initiatives; anticipated
 
expenses, cash requirements and sources of liquidity; capital allocatio
 
n
 
strategies and plans; and future financial performance. These
 
statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words
 
or phrases such as “positioned,” “growth,” “estimate,” “believe,”
 
“plan,” “future,” “opportunity,” “optimistic,” “anticipate,”
 
“target,” “expectations,” “expect,” “will,” “strategy,” “goal,
 
“focused,” “guidance,” “foresee” and similar words or phrases of
 
a future or forward-looking nature. The inclusion of forward
 
-looking information herein should not be regarded as a representation
 
by us or any other person that the future plans, estimates or expectations
 
contemplated by us will be achieved. These forward-looking statements
 
are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations,
 
estimates and projections about our industry, management’s
 
beliefs, certain assumptions made by management, and
 
financial trends that may affect our financial condition, results of
 
operations, business strategy or financial needs, many of which,
 
by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control.
 
Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated
 
in such forward-looking statements. Accordingly, we caution
 
you that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees
of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions, estimates and
 
uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Although we believe
 
that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements
 
are reasonable as of the date made, actual results may prove to be
 
materially different from the results expressed or implied by the
 
forward-looking statements due to a number of factors,
 
including without limitation, the following: impact on us and our clients
 
of a decline in general business and economic conditions and any
 
regulatory responses thereto, including uncertainty and volatility
 
in the financial markets; interest rate fluctuations; our ability to
 
effectively execute our growth strategy and manage our growth,
 
including identifying and consummating suitable mergers and acquisitions,
 
entering new lines of business or offering new or enhanced
 
services or products; fluctuations in fair value of our investments due to factors
 
outside of our control; our ability to successfully manage
 
credit risk and the sufficiency of our allowance; geographic conce
 
ntration of our markets; economic impact on our commercial real
 
estate and commercial-based loan portfolios, including declines
 
in commercial and residential real estate values; an increase
 
in non-performing assets; our ability to attract, hire and retain key personnel;
 
maintaining and increasing customer deposits, funding availability,
 
liquidity and our ability to raise and maintain sufficient capital;
 
competition from banks, credit unions and other financial services
 
providers; the effectiveness of our risk management framework; accounting
 
estimates; our ability to maintain effective internal control over
 
financial reporting; our ability to keep pace with technological changes;
 
cyber incidents or other failures, disruptions or security breaches;
 
employee error, fraud committed against the Company or
 
our clients, or incomplete or inaccurate information about clients and
counterparties;
 
mortgage markets; our ability to maintain our reputation; costs and
 
effects of litigation; environmental liability; risk exposure from transactions
 
with financial counterparties; severe weather, natural
 
disasters, pandemics, acts of war or terrorism
 
or other external events; and changes in laws, rules, regulations, interpretations
 
or policies relating to financial institutions, including stringent capital
 
requirements, higher FDIC insurance premiums and assessments,
 
consumer protection laws and privacy laws. These and other
 
factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described
 
in the forward-looking statements, as well as a discussion of the
 
risks and uncertainties that may affect our business, can be found
 
in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Reports on
 
Form 10-Q and in other filings we make with the Securities and Exchange
 
Commission. These forward-looking statements are made as
 
of the date hereof, and we disclaim any obligation to update any forward
 
-looking statement or to publicly announce the results of any revisions
 
to any of the forward-looking statements included herein, except
 
as required by law. MARKET AND INDUSTRY DATA.
 
This presentation references certain market, industry and demographic
 
data, forecasts and other statistical information. We have
 
obtained this data, forecasts and information from various independent,
 
third party industry sources and publications. Nothing in the data, forecasts
 
or information used or derived from third party sources should be constru
 
ed as advice. Some data and other information are also based on
 
our good faith estimates, which are derived from our review
 
of industry publications and surveys and independent sources. We
 
believe that these sources and estimates are reliable but have not
 
independently verified them. Statements as to our market position are
 
based on market data currently available to us.
Although we are not aware of any misstatements regarding the economic,
 
employment, industry and other market data presented herein,
 
these estimates involve inherent risks and uncertainties and are
 
based on assumptions that are subject to change. 2

ABOUT NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES CROSSFIRST
 
BANKSHARES, INC. In addition to disclosing financial measures
 
determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting
 
principles (GAAP), we disclose non-GAAP financial measures,
 
including “adjusted net income”, “adjusted diluted earnings per
 
common share”, “tangible common stockholders’ equity”, “tangible book
 
value per common share”, “adjusted return on average assets (ROAA)”,
 
“adjusted return on average common equity (ROCE)”, “adjusted
 
efficiency ratio – fully tax equivalent (FTE)” and “adjusted
 
non-interest expense.” 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 gains that we
 
believe are not indicative of our primary business operating results.
 
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 should not be relied on 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 provided at the end of this presentation. 3
