2Q 2023

SmartFinancial Announces Results for the Second Quarter 2023

Highlights for the Second Quarter of 2023

● Operating earnings¹ of $8.8 million, or $0.52 per diluted common share

● Net organic loan and lease growth of $56 million - 7% annualized quarter-over-quarter increase

● Credit quality remains solid with nonperforming assets to total assets of 0.12%

● Addition of seasoned wealth management team in Dothan, Alabama

● Stability in deposit mix with 24% non-interest bearing accounts

KNOXVILLE, TN – July 24, 2023 - SmartFinancial, Inc. ("SmartFinancial" or the "Company"; NASDAQ: SMBK), today announced net income of $8.8 million, or $0.52 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2023, compared to net income of $10.2 million, or $0.61 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2022, and compared to prior quarter net income of $11.5 million, or $0.68 per diluted common share.  Operating earnings¹, which excludes securities gains and merger related and restructuring expenses, net of tax adjustments, totaled $8.8 million, or $0.52 per diluted common share, in the second quarter of 2023, compared to $10.3 million, or $0.61 per diluted common share, in the second quarter of 2022, and compared to $11.5 million, or $0.68 per diluted common share, in the first quarter of 2023.

Billy Carroll, President & CEO, stated: “I am very pleased with our results for the quarter.  While dealing with some headwinds related to deposit pricing, this quarter showed the strength of our Balance Sheet with our ability to fund with our core base.  We’ve continued to focus on expenses without sacrificing investments for the future, and the quarter also allowed us some outstanding opportunities to gain strong client relationships.  We continue to be bullish as we look forward.”

SmartFinancial's Chairman, Miller Welborn, concluded: " The second quarter of 2023 shows further evidence of the strength of our company. Our entire team performed very well and executed our Strategic Plan effectively. I am as confident as ever that the economic environment in our southeastern markets remains very strong and our bank will continue to thrive in the months ahead.”

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income was $31.6 million for the second quarter of 2023, compared to $36.0 million for the prior quarter.  Average earning assets totaled $4.34 billion, a decrease of $86.4 million from the prior quarter.  The decrease in average earnings assets was primarily driven by a decrease in average interest-earning cash of $183.0 million, offset by an increase in average loans and leases of $50.1 million and average securities of $46.5 million.  Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased $34.1 million from the prior quarter, primarily attributable to a decrease in average deposits.

The tax equivalent net interest margin was 2.93% for the second quarter of 2023, compared to 3.31% for the prior quarter, which included $1.4 million in fees from the payoff of an acquired loan. The tax equivalent net interest margin was negatively impacted by the continued rise in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities from rising rates and increased pricing competition.  The yield on loans and leases, excluding loan fees was 5.39% for the second quarter, compared to 5.20% for the prior quarter.

The cost of total deposits for the second quarter of 2023 was 1.89% compared to 1.56% in the prior quarter. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased to 2.53% for the second quarter of 2023 compared to 2.12% for the prior quarter. The cost of average interest-bearing deposits was 2.46% for the second quarter of 2023 compared to 2.05% for the prior quarter, an increase of 41 basis points.  The increase in the cost of deposits is due to an increase in interest rates, customer migration to higher rate deposit products and increased competition for deposits.

Balance Sheet Trends

Total assets at June 30, 2023 were $4.75 billion compared to $4.64 billion at December 31, 2022.  The $108.3 million increase is primarily attributable to increases in loans and leases of $84.2 million, securities of $54.0 million and other assets of $9.2 million.  Asset increases were offset by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $27.5 million and an increase in the allowance for credit losses of $9.4 million, primarily for the one-time adjustment of $8.7 million related to the adoption of ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”) on January 1, 2023.

Total liabilities increased to $4.30 billion at June 30, 2023 from $4.21 billion at December 31, 2022.  The increase of $95.9 million was primarily from organic deposit growth of $122.5 million, offset by a decrease in borrowings of $26.4 million.

Shareholders' equity at June 30, 2023 totaled $444.8 million, an increase of $12.4 million, from December 31, 2022.  The increase in shareholders' equity was primarily driven by net income of $20.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, offset by the impact of the adoption of ASU 2016-13 on January 1, 2023, of $6.6 million (net of taxes), and dividends paid of $2.7 million.  Tangible book value per share¹ was $19.78 at June 30, 2023, compared to $19.09 at December 31, 2022.  Tangible common equity¹ as a percentage of tangible assets¹ was 7.25% at June 30, 2023, compared with 7.13% at December 31, 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Statements included in this earnings release include measures not recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and therefore are considered non-GAAP financial measures and should be read along with the accompanying tables, which provide a reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures. SmartFinancial management uses several Non-GAAP financial measures, including: (i) operating earnings, (ii) operating return on average assets, (iii) operating pre-tax pre-provision return on average assets, (iv) operating return on average shareholders' equity, (v) return on average tangible common equity, (vi) operating return on average tangible common equity, (vii) operating efficiency ratio, (viii) operating noninterest income, (ix) operating pre-tax pre-provision earnings, (x) operating noninterest expense, (xi) tangible common equity, (xii) average tangible common equity, (xiii) tangible book value, (xiv) tangible assets; and ratios derived therefrom, in its analysis of the company's performance. Operating earnings excludes the following from net income: securities gains and losses and merger related and restructuring expenses.  Operating return on average assets is the annualized operating earnings (Non-GAAP) divided by average assets.  Operating pre-tax pre-provision return on average assets is the annualized operating pre-tax pre-provision income earnings (Non-GAAP) by average assets. Operating return on average shareholders' equity is the annualized operating earnings (Non-GAAP) divided by average equity. Return on average tangible common equity is the annualized net income divided by average tangible common equity (Non-GAAP). Operating return on average tangible common equity is the annualized operating earnings (Non-GAAP) divided by average tangible common equity (Non-GAAP). The operating efficiency ratio includes an adjustment for taxable equivalent yields and excludes securities gains and losses and merger related and restructuring expenses from the efficiency ratio. Operating noninterest income excludes the following from noninterest income: securities gains and losses.  Operating pre-tax pre-provision earnings is net interest income plus operating noninterest income (Non-GAAP) less operating noninterest expense (Non-GAAP).  Operating noninterest expense excludes the following from noninterest expense: prior year adjustments to salaries, merger related and restructuring expenses and certain franchise tax true-up expenses. Tangible common equity (Non-GAAP) and average tangible common equity (Non-GAAP) excludes goodwill and other intangible assets from shareholders' equity and average shareholders' equity, respectively.  Tangible book value (Non-GAAP) is tangible common equity (Non-GAAP) divided by common shares outstanding.  Tangible assets (Non-GAAP) excludes goodwill and other intangibles from total assets.  Management believes that Non-GAAP financial measures provide additional useful information that allows investors to evaluate the ongoing performance of the company and provide meaningful comparisons to its peers.  Management believes these Non-GAAP financial measures also enhance investors' ability to compare period-to-period financial results and allow investors and company management to view our operating results excluding the impact of items that are not reflective of the underlying operating performance.  Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of performance or financial condition as promulgated under GAAP, and investors should consider SmartFinancial's performance and financial condition as reported under GAAP and all other relevant information when assessing the performance or financial condition of the company. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the results or financial condition as reported under GAAP.

DISCLOSURES 2 Forward-Looking Statements This presentation may contain statements that are based on management’s current estimates or expectations of future events or future results, and that may be deemed to constitute forward-looking statements as defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements on SmartFinancial Inc.’s (“SmartFinancial”) business and financial results and conditions, are not historical in nature and can generally be identified by such words as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “may,” “estimate,” and similar expressions. All forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause the actual results of SmartFinancial to differ materially from future results expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Such risks, uncertainties, and other factors include, among others, (1) the risk of litigation and reputational risk associated with historic acquisition activity; (2) the risk that cost savings and revenue synergies from recently completed acquisitions may not be realized or may take longer than anticipated to realize; (3) disruption from recently completed acquisitions with customer, supplier, employee, or other business relationships; (4) our ability to successfully integrate the businesses acquired as part of previous acquisitions with the business of SmartBank; (5) changes in management’s plans for the future; (6) prevailing, or changes in, economic or political conditions, particularly in our market areas, including the effects of declines in the real estate market, inflationary pressures, elevated interest rates and slowdowns in economic growth, as well as the financial stress on borrowers as a result of the foregoing; (7) increased technology and cybersecurity risks, including generative artificial intelligence risks; (8) credit risk associated with our lending activities; (9) changes in loan demand, real estate values, or competition; (10) developments in our mortgage banking business, including loan modifications, general demand, and the effects of judicial or regulatory requirements or guidance; (11) changes in accounting principles, policies, or guidelines; (12) changes in applicable laws, rules, or regulations; (13) adverse results from current or future litigation, regulatory examinations or other legal and/or regulatory actions, including as a result of SmartFinancial’s participation in and execution of government programs related to the COVID-19 pandemic and related variants; (14) potential impacts of the recent adverse developments in the banking industry highlighted by high-profile bank failures, including impacts on customer confidence, deposit outflows, liquidity and the regulatory response thereto; (15) significant turbulence or a disruption in the capital or financial markets and the effect of a fall in stock market prices on our investment securities; (16) the effects of war or other conflicts including the impacts related to or resulting from Russia’s military action in Ukraine; and (17) other general competitive, economic, political, and market factors, including those affecting our business, operations, pricing, products, or services. These and other factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements can be found in SmartFinancial’s most recent annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, and current reports on Form 8-K, in each case filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and available on the SEC’s website (www.sec.gov). Undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements. SmartFinancial disclaims any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements contained in this release, which speak only as of the date hereof, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise. Non-GAAP Financial Measures Statements included in this presentation include Non-GAAP financial measures and should be read along with the accompanying tables, which provide a reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures. SmartFinancial management uses several Non-GAAP financial measures, including: (i) operating revenue, (ii) operating earnings, (iii) operating return on average assets, (iv) operating return on average shareholders’ equity, (v) return on average tangible common equity, (vi) operating return on average tangible common equity, (vii) operating efficiency ratio; (viii) tangible common equity; (ix) average tangible common equity; (x) tangible book value; (xi) operating pre-tax pre-provision earnings; (xii) operating noninterest income; (xiii) operating noninterest expense; (xiv) tangible assets; and ratios derived therefrom, in its analysis of the company's performance. Operating revenue includes the earnings from net interest income and operating noninterest income (Non-GAAP). Operating earnings excludes the following from net income: securities gains and losses, merger related and restructuring expenses, and the income tax effect of adjustments. Operating return on average assets is the annualized operating earnings (Non-GAAP) divided by average assets. Operating return on average shareholders’ equity is the annualized operating earnings (Non-GAAP) divided by average equity. Return on average tangible common equity is the annualized net income divided by average tangible common equity (Non-GAAP). Operating return on average tangible common equity is the annualized operating earnings (Non-GAAP) divided by average tangible common equity (Non-GAAP). The operating efficiency ratio includes an adjustment for taxable equivalent yields and excludes securities gains and losses and merger related and restructuring expenses from the efficiency ratio. Tangible common equity and average tangible common equity exclude goodwill and other intangible assets from shareholders’ equity and average shareholders’ equity. Tangible book value excludes goodwill and other intangible assets less shareholders’ equity divided by common shares outstanding. Operating pre-tax pre-provision earnings is net interest income plus operating noninterest income (Non-GAAP) less operating noninterest expense (Non-GAAP). Operating noninterest income excludes the following from noninterest income: securities gains and losses. Operating noninterest expense excludes the following from noninterest expense: prior year adjustments to salaries, merger related and restructuring expenses and certain franchise tax true-up expenses. Tangible assets excludes goodwill and other intangibles from total assets. Management believes that Non-GAAP financial measures provide additional useful information that allows investors to evaluate the ongoing performance of the company and provide meaningful comparisons to its peers. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures also enhance investors' ability to compare period-to-period financial results and allow investors and company management to view our operating results excluding the impact of items that are not reflective of the underlying operating performance. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of performance or financial condition as promulgated under GAAP, and investors should consider SmartFinancial's performance and financial condition as reported under GAAP and all other relevant information when assessing the performance or financial condition of the company. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the results or financial condition as reported under GAAP.

These estimates of changes in SmartFinancial’s net interest income require us to make certain assumptions including loan and mortgage-related investment prepayment speeds, reinvestment rate, deposit maturities and decay rates. These assumptions are inherently uncertain and, as a result, we cannot precisely predict the impact of changes in interest rates on net interest income. Although our analysis provides an indication of our interest rate risk exposure at a particular point in time, such estimates are not intended to, and do not, provide a precise forecast of the effect of changes in market interest rates and will differ from actual results $2.0 Billion Fixed Rate Loans $1.4 Billion Variable Rate Loans • $800 Million Short-Term Variable Rate (1 - 3 Month Reset) • $595 Million Long-Term Variable Rate (> 3 Month Reset) $ in Millions, unless otherwise indicated $ in Thousands, unless otherwise indicated
