-- Net interest margin expansion and balance
sheet growth drive record top line revenue and tangible book value
growth --
First Business Financial Services, Inc. (the “Company”, the
“Bank”, or “First Business Bank”) (Nasdaq:FBIZ) reported quarterly
net income available to common shareholders of $10.6 million, or
$1.25 diluted earnings per share. This compares to net income
available to common shareholders of $11.0 million, or $1.29 per
share, in the second quarter of 2022 and $9.2 million, or $1.07 per
share, in the third quarter of 2021.
“In the third quarter, loan and deposit growth and net interest
margin expansion helped generate a 12% increase in top line revenue
compared to the second quarter of 2022. In addition, the Bank’s
exceptional asset quality continued, as we reported our lowest
percentage of non-performing assets to total assets in nearly 20
years at just 0.13%,” President and Chief Executive Officer Corey
Chambas said. “We were also very pleased to see significant deposit
growth during the quarter, increasing 16% annualized, more than
fully funding our 8% annualized loan growth,” Chambas added. “Our
capital base remains strong and, unlike many of our peers, we have
continued to increase tangible book value and maintain tangible
common equity in excess of 8%.”
Quarterly Highlights
- Strong Profitability Metrics. Pre-tax, pre-provision
adjusted (“PTPP”) earnings, excluding Paycheck Protection Program
(“PPP”) interest and fee income, grew to a record $14.1 million,
increasing $3.5 million, or 32.6%, from the linked quarter and $6.3
million, or 80.4%, from the prior year quarter. Continued
improvement in profitability was driven by an increase in top line
revenue, which rose $3.7 million, or 12.2%, from the linked quarter
and $7.7 million, or 29.1%, from the prior year quarter. With
continued positive operating leverage, the Company increased PTPP
return on average assets to 2.05% in the third quarter of 2022,
compared to 1.57% in linked quarter and 1.24% in the prior year
quarter.
- Record Top Line Revenue and Net Interest Margin
Expansion. Net interest income grew to a record $25.9 million,
increasing $2.2 million, or 9.4%, from the linked quarter and $4.7
million, or 22.0%, from the prior year quarter. This increase was
primarily due to a 30 and 56 basis point expansion in net interest
margin compared to the linked and prior year quarters,
respectively. The net interest margin expansion resulted from
rising rates on variable-rate loans and lower deposit betas on
in-market deposits during the third quarter of 2022. Average loans
and leases receivable increased $43.7 million, or 7.7% annualized,
and $185.5, or 8.71%, compared to the linked and prior year
quarters, respectively.
- Deposit Growth. Enhanced focus on relationship-based
deposit generation and the return of cyclical deposits following
second quarter client utilization led to in-market deposit growth
of $72.2 million, or 15.6% annualized, from the second quarter of
2022.
- Exceptional Asset Quality. Continued positive asset
quality trends resulted in the decline of non-performing assets to
$3.8 million, or 0.13% of total assets, improving from 0.29% of
total assets on September 30, 2021. The Company recorded a loan
loss provision of $12,000, compared to a provision benefit of $3.7
million in the second quarter of 2022 and $2.3 million in the third
quarter of 2021.
- Tangible Book Value Growth. The Company’s strong
earnings continued to offset the interest-rate-driven market value
decline in the investment portfolio, producing a 7.5% annualized
increase in tangible book value compared to the linked quarter and
8.0% compared to the prior year quarter.

Calculation is annualized.
Third Quarter 2022 Compared to Second
Quarter 2022
Net interest income increased $2.2 million, or 9.4%, to $25.9
million.
- Net interest income growth was driven by an increase in average
loans and leases and net interest margin expansion, partially
offset by a decrease in fees in lieu of interest. Average loans and
leases receivable increased $43.7 million, or 7.7% annualized, to
$2.3 billion. Fees in lieu of interest, which can vary from quarter
to quarter based on client-driven activity, totaled $807,000,
compared to $1.9 million, as the prior quarter included a
significant non-accrual interest recovery. Excluding fees in lieu
of interest and interest income from PPP loans, net interest income
increased $3.3 million, or 15.2%.
- The yield on average interest-earning assets increased 68 basis
points to 4.92% from 4.24%. Excluding average net PPP loans, PPP
loan interest income, and fees in lieu of interest, the yield
earned on average interest-earning assets increased 84 basis points
to 4.80% from 3.96%.
- The rate paid for average interest-bearing, in-market deposits
increased 59 basis points to 0.88% from 0.29%. The rate paid for
average total bank funding increased 43 basis points to 0.89% from
0.46%. Total bank funding is defined as total deposits plus Federal
Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances. The daily average effective
federal funds rate increased 141 basis points compared to the
linked quarter, which equates to an in-market, interest-bearing
deposit beta of 41.9% for the three months ended September 30,
2022.
- Net interest margin was 4.01%, up 30 basis points compared to
3.71% in the linked quarter. Adjusted net interest margin1 was
3.89%, up 44 basis points compared to 3.45% in the linked quarter.
Net interest margin expansion resulted from rising rates on
variable-rate loans and lower deposit betas on in-market deposits,
as the federal funds target rate reached its highest point since
the Great Recession.
- The Bank continues to maintain an asset-sensitive balance sheet
and ended the quarter positioned for net interest income to
continue to benefit from rising rates. However, the Bank
anticipates deposit betas will rise at a greater rate with further
increases expected in the federal funds rate during the fourth
quarter, which will slow the pace of net interest margin
expansion.
____________________
1 Adjusted net interest margin is a
non-GAAP measure representing net interest income excluding fees in
lieu of interest and other recurring, but volatile, components of
net interest margin divided by average interest-earning assets less
average net PPP loans and other recurring, but volatile, components
of average interest-earning assets.
The Company reported provision expense of $12,000, compared to a
$3.7 million benefit in the second quarter of 2022 due to a large
loan recovery.
- The provision expense in the third quarter of 2022 was
primarily due to an increase in the general reserve of $400,000
related to loan growth and a $132,000 increase due to qualitative
factor changes, as well as a $447,000 net increase in specific
reserves, partially offset by a $940,000 reduction in general
reserve from change in loss factors derived from historical
look-back period.
Non-interest income increased $1.3 million, or 19.3%, to $8.2
million.
- Other fee income increased $1.8 million to $2.7 million,
compared to $860,000 in the second quarter. The increase was
primarily due to strong returns on the Company’s investments in
mezzanine funds and gains recognized on end-of-term buyout
agreements related to the Company’s equipment financing business
line.
- Loan fees increased $117,000, or 16.8% to $814,000 from the
increase in loans as well as an increase in commercial and
industrial activity (“C&I”) generating additional service fee
income.
- Private Wealth management fee income decreased $234,000, or
8.2% to $2.6 million. Private Wealth and trust assets under
management and administration measured $2.493 billion at September
30, 2022, down $61.1 million from the second quarter. The decrease
in fee income and assets under management and administration was
due to a decrease in market valuations.
- Gains on sale of Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans
decreased $219,000, or 23.0%, to $732,000. Premiums on the sale and
notional value of SBA loans sold decreased compared to prior
quarter.
- Commercial loan swap fee income decreased $130,000, or 27.6%,
to $341,000. Swap fee income can vary from period to period based
on loan activity and the interest rate environment.
Non-interest expense increased $572,000, or 2.9%, to $20.0
million, while operating expense increased $240,000, or 1.2%, to
$19.9 million.
- Compensation expense was $14.8 million, reflecting an increase
of $797,000, or 5.7%, from the linked quarter due to a $441,000
one-time increase to the annual cash incentive bonus program
accrual, as well as expanded hiring to support the Bank’s growth
plans. Management believes there will be upward pressure on
compensation throughout the remainder of the year as the Bank
continues to opportunistically invest in new talent and retain
existing talent in the competitive market. Average FTEs for the
third quarter of 2022 were 333, up twelve from 321 in the linked
quarter.
- Professional fees decreased $95,000, or 7.3%, to $1.2 million
from the linked quarter primarily due to a decrease in recruiting
expense.
- Marketing expense decreased $127,000, or 19.0%, to $543,000
from the linked quarter primarily due to seasonally higher spending
in the second quarter related to sponsorships.
- Data processing expense decreased $173,000, or 19.4%, to
$719,000 from the linked quarter primarily due to the decrease in
recurring annual expense related to tax processing on behalf of the
Bank’s Private Wealth management clients in the second
quarter.
Income tax expense decreased $384,000, or 10.7%, to $3.2
million. The effective tax rate was 22.9% for the three months
ended September 30, 2022, compared to 23.5% for the same period in
2021. The three months ended September 30, 2022 included a $155,000
net benefit from a low income housing tax credit investment; no tax
credits were recognized in the second quarter of 2022. For 2022,
the Company expects to report an effective tax rate less than 22.5%
as management continues to actively pursue tax credit
opportunities.
Total period-end loans and leases receivable increased $40.6
million, or 7.1% annualized, to $2.331 billion. Excluding net PPP
loans, total period-end loans and leases receivable increased $46.4
million, or 8.1% annualized, to $2.328 billion.
- C&I loans increased $47.6 million, or 25.6% annualized, to
$789.0 million, compared to $741.4 million. Excluding PPP loans,
C&I loans increased $53.5 million, or 29.2% annualized, due to
an increase in Equipment Finance and Asset-Based Lending.
- Commercial real estate (“CRE”) loans decreased by $3.5 million,
or 1.0% annualized, to $1.485 billion, compared to $1.488 billion.
A decrease in construction loans reflected migration to other CRE
categories.
Total period-end in-market deposits increased $72.2 million, or
15.6% annualized, to $1.929 billion, compared to $1.857 billion.
The average rate paid was 0.61%, up 41 basis points from 0.20% in
the second quarter.
Period-end wholesale funding, including FHLB advances, brokered
deposits, and deposits gathered through internet deposit listing
services, decreased $30.3 million to $536.1 million.
- Wholesale deposits increased $146.0 million to $158.3 million,
compared to $12.3 million as the Bank replaced FHLB advances with
wholesale deposits. This shift in wholesale funding is consistent
with our funding philosophy to manage interest rate risk by
utilizing the most efficient and cost-effective source of wholesale
funds to match-fund our fixed-rate loan portfolio. The average rate
paid on wholesale deposits decreased 52 basis points to 2.46% and
the weighted average original maturity decreased to 0.3 years from
4.8 years.
- FHLB advances decreased $176.3 million to $377.8 million. The
average rate paid on FHLB advances increased 53 basis points to
2.01% and the weighted average original maturity increased to 4.8
years from 3.2 years.
Non-performing assets decreased to $3.8 million, or 0.13% of
total assets, compared to $5.7 million, or 0.21% of total assets,
primarily due to the payoff of a non-accrual loan.
The allowance for loan and lease losses increased $39,000, or
0.2%, as increases in the general reserve from loan growth, changes
in qualitative factors, and an increase in specific reserves were
partially offset by a decrease in the general reserve due to a
change in loss factors derived from the historical look-back
period.
The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percent of total
gross loans and leases was 1.04% compared to 1.05%.
Third Quarter 2022 Compared to Third
Quarter 2021
Net interest income increased $4.7 million, or 22.0%, to $25.9
million.
- The increase in net interest income primarily reflects an
increase in average gross loans and leases and net interest margin
expansion, partially offset by lower fees in lieu of interest. Fees
in lieu of interest decreased from $2.8 million to $807,000,
primarily due to a $1.6 million reduction in PPP loan fee
amortization. Excluding fees in lieu of interest and interest
income from PPP loans, net interest income increased $6.9 million,
or 38.0%. Excluding net PPP loans, average gross loans and leases
increased $268.5 million, or 13.1%.
- Net interest margin increased 56 basis points to 4.01% from
3.45%. Adjusted net interest margin increased 67 basis points to
3.89% from 3.22%.
- The yield on average interest-earning assets measured 4.92%
compared to 3.90%. Excluding fees in lieu of interest, PPP loan
interest income, and net PPP loans, the yield on average
interest-earning assets measured 4.80%, compared to 3.53%. This
increase in yield was primarily due to the increase in short-term
market rates and the reinvestment of cash flows from the securities
and fixed rate loan portfolios in a rising rate environment.
- The rate paid for average interest-bearing in-market deposits
increased 68 basis points to 0.88% from 0.20%. The rate paid for
average total bank funding increased 53 basis points to 0.89% from
0.36%.
The Company reported provision expense of $12,000, compared to a
provision benefit of $2.3 million in the third quarter of 2021 due
to large loan recoveries in the prior year.
Non-interest income of $8.2 million increased by $1.2 million,
or 16.8%, from $7.0 million in the prior year period.
- Other fee income increased $806,000, or 53.4%, to $2.3 million,
due to above-average returns on the Company’s investments in
mezzanine funds and gains recognized on end-of-term buyout
agreements related to the Company’s equipment financing business
line.
- Commercial loan swap fee income was $341,000. There was no swap
fee activity in the prior year quarter. Swap fee income varies from
period to period based on loan activity and the interest rate
environment.
- Loan fees of $814,000 increased by $101,000, or 14.2%,
primarily due to an increase in C&I lending activity.
- Service charges on deposits increased $62,000, or 6.5%, to $1.0
million, due to an increase in existing and new deposit client
relationships.
- Private Wealth management fee income decreased $141,000, or
5.1%, to $2.6 million, due to a decline in market values. Private
Wealth and trust assets under management and administration
measured $2.493 billion at September 30, 2022, down $255.1 million,
or 9.3%.
Non-interest expense increased $1.5 million, or 8.3%, to $20.0
million. Operating expense increased $1.4 million, or 7.4%, to
$19.9 million.
- Compensation expense increased $1.5 million, or 11.0%, to $14.8
million. Average FTEs were 333 in the third quarter of 2022,
compared to 311 in the third quarter of 2021. The increase in
compensation expense is consistent with the explanations discussed
above in the linked quarter analysis.
- Professional fees increased $179,000, or 17.5%, to $1.2
million, primarily due to an increase in recruiting expense, audit
expenses, and a general increase in other professional consulting
services for various projects.
- Computer software expense increased $129,000, or 12.9%, to $1.1
million, primarily due to an increase in technology costs driven by
higher headcount.
- Other non-interest expense decreased $134,000, or 19.1%, to
$569,000 mainly due to higher deferred loan origination costs
driven by loan volume increases in our Equipment Finance business
line.
Total period-end loans and leases receivable increased $207.4
million, or 9.8%, to $2.331 billion. Excluding net PPP loans, total
period-end loans and leases receivable increased $269.5 million, or
13.1%, to $2.328 billion.
- C&I loans increased $107.9 million, or 15.8% to $789.0
million. Excluding PPP loans, C&I loans increased $171.4
million, or 27.9%, to $786.6 million due to expansion of existing
markets and products.
- CRE loans increased $97.2 million, or 7.0%, due to increases in
all CRE categories.
Total period-end in-market deposits increased $99.6 million, or
5.4%, to $1.929 billion and the average rate paid increased 47
basis points to 0.61%. This increase in deposits was principally
due to a $103.1 million increase in certificates of deposit,
partially offset by a $17.3 million decrease in transaction
accounts.
Period-end wholesale funding increased $103.7 million to $536.1
million.
- Wholesale deposits increased $83.7 million, or 112.1%, to
$158.3 million, as the Bank utilized more wholesale deposits in
lieu of short-term FHLB advances. The average rate paid on brokered
certificates of deposit increased 154 basis points to 2.46% and the
weighted average original maturity decreased to 0.3 years from 3.5
years.
- FHLB advances increased $20.0 million to $377.8 million. The
average rate paid on FHLB advances increased 72 basis points to
2.01% and the weighted average original maturity decreased to 4.8
years from 6.1 years.
Non-performing assets decreased to $3.8 million, or 0.13% of
total assets, compared to $7.6 million, or 0.29% of total
assets.
The allowance for loan and lease losses decreased $533,000 to
$24.1 million, compared to $24.7 million.
- The allowance for loan and lease losses as a percent of total
gross loans and leases was 1.04% compared to 1.16%.
Paycheck Protection
Program
As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $2.4 million in gross
PPP loans outstanding and deferred processing fees outstanding of
$52,000. The processing fees are deferred and recognized over the
contractual life of the loan, or accelerated at forgiveness, as an
adjustment of yield using the interest method. During the three
months ended September 30, 2022, the Company recognized $61,000 of
PPP processing fees in interest income. The SBA provides a guaranty
to the lender of 100% of principal and interest unless the lender
violated an obligation under the agreement.
Share Repurchase Program

NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS
Certain financial information provided in this release is
determined by methods other than in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles (United States) (“GAAP”). Although
the Company’s management believes that these non-GAAP financial
measures provide a greater understanding of its business, these
measures are not necessarily comparable to similar measures that
may be presented by other companies.
TANGIBLE BOOK VALUE
“Tangible book value per share” is a non-GAAP measure
representing tangible common equity divided by total common shares
outstanding. “Tangible common equity” itself is a non-GAAP measure
representing common stockholders’ equity reduced by intangible
assets, if any. The Company’s management believes that this measure
is important to many investors in the marketplace who are
interested in period-to-period changes in book value per common
share exclusive of changes in intangible assets. The information
provided below reconciles tangible book value per share and
tangible common equity to their most comparable GAAP measures.

TANGIBLE COMMON EQUITY TO TANGIBLE ASSETS
“Tangible common equity to tangible assets” is defined as the
ratio of common stockholders’ equity reduced by intangible assets,
if any, divided by total assets reduced by intangible assets, if
any. The Company’s management believes that this measure is
important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested
in the relative changes from period to period in common equity and
total assets, each exclusive of changes in intangible assets. The
information below reconciles tangible common equity and tangible
assets to their most comparable GAAP measures.

RETURN ON AVERAGE TANGIBLE COMMON EQUITY
“Return on average tangible common equity” is defined as net
income less earnings allocated to participating shares and
preferred stock dividends, if any, divided by average equity
reduced by intangible assets and average preferred stock, if any.
The Company’s management believes that this measure is important to
many investors in the marketplace who are interested in the
relative changes from period-to-period in earnings allocated to
common shareholders and average tangible equity, each exclusive of
changes in intangible assets and preferred stock. The information
below reconciles net income allocated to Common Shares and average
tangible common equity to their most comparable GAAP measures.

EFFICIENCY RATIO & PRE-TAX, PRE-PROVISION ADJUSTED
EARNINGS
“Efficiency ratio” is a non-GAAP measure representing
non-interest expense excluding the effects of the SBA recourse
provision, impairment of tax credit investments, losses or gains on
foreclosed properties, amortization of other intangible assets and
other discrete items, if any, divided by operating revenue, which
is equal to net interest income plus non-interest income less
realized gains or losses on securities, if any. “Pre-tax,
pre-provision adjusted earnings” is defined as operating revenue
less operating expense. In the judgment of the Company’s
management, the adjustments made to non-interest expense and
non-interest income allow investors and analysts to better assess
the Company’s operating expenses in relation to its core operating
revenue by removing the volatility that is associated with certain
one-time items and other discrete items. The information provided
below reconciles the efficiency ratio and pre-tax, pre-provision
adjusted earnings to its most comparable GAAP measure.

ADJUSTED NET INTEREST MARGIN
“Adjusted Net Interest Margin” is a non-GAAP measure
representing net interest income excluding the fees in lieu of
interest and other recurring, but volatile, components of net
interest margin divided by average interest-earning assets less
average net PPP loans, if any, and other recurring, but volatile,
components of average interest-earning assets. Fees in lieu of
interest are defined as prepayment fees, asset-based loan fees,
non-accrual interest, and loan fee amortization. In the judgment of
the Company’s management, the adjustments made to net interest
income allow investors and analysts to better assess the Company’s
net interest income in relation to its core client-facing loan and
deposit rate changes by removing the volatility that is associated
with these recurring but volatile components. The information
provided below reconciles the net interest margin to its most
comparable GAAP measure.
