Management Commentary
Roger D. Plemens, President and Chief Executive
Officer of the Company, reported, “We are pleased with our fourth quarter results showing increases in adjusted net income
of 17% and adjusted diluted earnings per share of 15% compared to the fourth quarter of 2017. In addition, our adjusted return
on average assets and adjusted return average equity hit new highs of 1.01% and 12.71%, respectively. Although our quarterly results
included approximately $0.05 per share of life insurance benefits and expense reversals, we remain optimistic about our future
earnings. We are looking forward to the proposed merger of equals announced January 15, 2019, and will work diligently with the
Smart Bank team over the next several months to ensure the combination of management and culture will follow our history of successful
integrations.”
Recent Developments
On January 15, 2019, Entegra announced its
entry into a definitive agreement to merge with and into SmartFinancial, Inc. (“SmartFinancial”). On January 16, 2019,
Entegra issued a related press release indicating that Entegra may be required to take an impairment charge to goodwill in connection
with the announcement of the merger. Upon further analysis, Entegra determined that no impairment charge to goodwill is required
at this time.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income decreased $0.04 million,
or 2.8%, to $12.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2018, compared to $12.7 million for the same period in 2017.
Net interest income increased $6.5 million, or 15.1%, to $49.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $42.8
million for the same period in 2017. The decrease in net interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2018 compared
to the same period in 2017 was primarily due to increased costs of deposits and borrowings, partially offset by higher volumes
in the loan portfolio, as well as an increase in the yields earned on cash and taxable investments. The increase in net interest
income for the year ended December 31, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017 was primarily due to higher volumes in the loan
portfolio, as well as an increase in the yields earned on cash, taxable investments and loans partially offset by increased deposit
balances and the costs of deposits and borrowings Tax equivalent net interest margin was 3.29% for the three months ended December
31, 2018, compared to 3.61% for the same period in 2017, and 3.35% and 3.39% for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
Provision for Loan Losses
The provision for loan losses was $0.1 million
and $1.2 million for the three months and year ended December 31, 2018, respectively, compared to $0.7 million and $1.9 million
for the comparable periods of 2017. The provisions for loan losses are mainly attributable to organic loan growth. The Company
continues to experience modest levels of net charge-offs and non-performing loans.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income increased $0.6 million,
or 87.6%, to $1.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2018, compared to $0.7 million for the same period in 2017 primarily
as the result of the losses on sale of investment securities in 2017 related to a portfolio restructure. Increases in servicing
income, income from Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”) holdings, and a life insurance benefit on the death
of a former director in 2018 were partially offset by decreases in mortgage banking, equity securities gains, and gains on sale
of Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans.
Noninterest income increased $1.0 million,
or 19.7%, to $6.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $5.0 million for the same period in 2017, primarily
as the result of the other than temporary impairment on one investment security of $0.7 million and losses on sale of investment
securities of $1.1 million in 2017, compared to realized losses of $0.5 million on sale of investments in 2018 related to a portfolio
restructure. Increases in net servicing income, net interchange fees and income from SBIC holdings were partially offset by decreases
in mortgage banking and equity securities gains.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense decreased $1.9 million,
or 17.5%, to $9.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2018, compared to $10.9 million for the same period in 2017,
primarily as a result of reduced merge-related expenses, partially offset by increased professional and advisory expenses.
Noninterest expense increased $1.2 million,
or 3.4%, to $37.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2018, compared to $35.8 million for the same period in 2017. The increases
were primarily related to increased compensation and employee benefits, net occupancy expenses, and data processing expenses, as
the 2018 period included the full impact of the Chattahoochee Bank of Georgia acquisition and the branches acquired from Stearns
Bank, partially offset by reduced merger-related expenses.
Income Taxes
Effective tax rates for the three months and
year ended December 31, 2018 were 17.72% and 18.4%, respectively. Income tax expense for the 2018 periods benefitted from the newly
enacted federal tax rate of 21%, compared to a federal tax rate of 35% in 2017. In addition, income tax expense for all periods
benefited from tax-exempt income related to municipal bond investments and bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”).
Balance Sheet
Total assets increased $55.0 million, or 3.5%,
to $1.64 billion at December 31, 2018 from $1.58 billion at December 31, 2017. The Company de-leveraged its balance sheet during
the fourth quarter of 2018 by approximately $50 million in order to pay off certain higher rate wholesale borrowings.
Loans receivable increased $70.9 million, or
7.1%, to $1.08 billion at December 31, 2018 from $1.00 billion at December 31, 2017. Loan growth continues to be primarily concentrated
in commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loans.
Core deposits increased $31.8 million, or 4.2%
to $795.3 million at December 31, 2018 from $763.4 million at December 31, 2017. Retail certificates of deposit decreased $7.6
million to $350.0 million at December 31, 2018 from $357.6 million at December 31, 2017. Wholesale deposits increased $34.9 million
to $76.0 million at December 31, 2018 from $41.1 million at December 31, 2017. We continue to focus on gathering core deposits,
which amounted to 65% of the Company’s deposit portfolio at December 31, 2018.
Total shareholders’ equity increased
$11.6 million to $162.9 million at December 31, 2018, compared to $151.3 million at December 31, 2017. This increase was primarily
attributable to $13.9 million of net income, offset by a $3.4 million after-tax decline in the market value of investment securities
available for sale. Tangible book value per share, a non-GAAP measure, increased $1.67 to $19.57 at December 31, 2018 from $17.90
at December 31, 2017. See Appendix A for a reconciliation of our tangible book value per share to the comparable GAAP measure.
Asset Quality
Non-performing loans to total loans and non-performing
assets to total assets both decreased to 0.45% at December 31, 2018, compared to 0.48% and 0.46%, respectively, at December 31,
2017. Net loan charge-offs continue to remain modest, totaling $0.1 million for year ended December 31, 2018.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Statements included in this press release include
non-GAAP financial measures and should be read along with the accompanying tables in Appendix A, which provide a reconciliation
of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures. This press release and the accompanying tables discuss financial measures,
such as adjusted noninterest expense, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted return on average assets,
adjusted return on tangible average equity, adjusted efficiency ratio, tangible common equity, tangible assets and tangible book
value per share, which are all non-GAAP measures. We believe that such non-GAAP measures are useful because they enhance the ability
of investors and management to evaluate and compare the Company’s operating results from period to period in a meaningful
manner. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of performance as promulgated under GAAP, nor
are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Investors should consider
the Company’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 measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should
not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results or financial condition as reported
under GAAP.

of changes in general economic and market conditions, interest and exchange rates, monetary policy, laws and regulations and their
