George Gleason, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "We are very pleased to report our results for the first quarter of 2018, including record net interest income, an annualized return on average assets of 2.16%, $941 million growth in the funded balance of non-purchased loans, a 4.69% net interest margin and excellent asset quality metrics."

Its ratio of total tangible common stockholders' equity to total tangible assets was 13.22% at March 31, 2018 compared to 11.69% at March 31, 2017.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income for the first quarter of 2018 was a record $217.8 million, a 14.2% increase from $190.8 million for the first quarter of 2017. Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent ("FTE") basis, was 4.69% for the first quarter of 2018, a decrease of 19 basis points from 4.88% for the first quarter of 2017. Average earning assets were $18.92 billion for the first quarter of 2018, a 17.2% increase from $16.14 billion for the first quarter of 2017.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

Non-interest income for the first quarter of 2018 decreased 1.2% to $28.7 million compared to $29.1 million for the first quarter of 2017. The Bank's non-interest income for the first quarter of 2018 included $2.73 million of tax-exempt bank owned life insurance ("BOLI") death benefits, which increased the Bank's diluted earnings per common share by $0.02. There were no such benefits in the first quarter of 2017. The Bank's service charges on deposit accounts declined from $11.3 million for the first quarter of 2017 to $9.5 million for the first quarter of 2018 primarily due to the Durbin Amendment's impact on the Bank's interchange revenue effective as of July 1, 2017. The Bank's mortgage lending income declined from $1.6 million for the first quarter of 2017 to $0.5 million for the first quarter of 2018. This was a result of the Bank's decision in December 2017 to exit the secondary market mortgage lending business and the substantial wind down of that business in the quarter just ended. The Bank expects only a nominal amount of mortgage lending income in the second quarter of 2018 and none thereafter.

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

Non-interest expense for the first quarter of 2018 increased 19.9% to $93.8 million compared to $78.3 million for the first quarter of 2017.

The Bank's efficiency ratio (non-interest expense divided by the sum of net interest income FTE and non-interest income) for the first quarter of 2018 was 37.9% compared to 35.0% for the first quarter of 2017.

ASSET QUALITY, CHARGE-OFFS AND ALLOWANCE

Excluding purchased loans, the Bank's ratio of nonperforming loans as a percent of total loans was 0.09% at March 31, 2018 compared to 0.11% at March 31, 2017.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. The Bank uses these non-GAAP financial measures, specifically return on average tangible common stockholders' equity, tangible book value per common share, total tangible common stockholders' equity and the ratio of total tangible common stockholders' equity to total tangible assets, as important measures of the strength of its capital and its ability to generate earnings on its tangible capital invested by its shareholders. These measures typically adjust GAAP financial measures to exclude intangible assets. Management believes presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides useful supplemental information which contributes to a proper understanding of the financial results and capital levels of the Bank. These non-GAAP disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other banks. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables at the end of this release under the caption "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
