| CEO COMMENTARY |
|
Harris H. Simmons, Chairman and CEO of Zions Bancorporation, commented, “The first quarter results included $1.2 billion of growth in average non-PPP loans relative to the prior quarter, or an annualized growth rate of over 10%, and annualized growth rate of net interest income excluding PPP income of over 17%. Credit quality continued to show strength, with net charge-offs equaling an annualized 0.05% of average loans and a sequential quarter decline in nonaccrual loans of 7%, which were contributing factors in the reduction of the allowance for credit losses.”
Mr. Simmons continued, “Higher operating costs were primarily the product of both a higher level of compensation increases resulting from a tight labor market and related inflationary pressures, together with increased incentive compensation accruals as a result of higher interest rates and stronger loan growth that are expected to produce improved performance through the remainder of the year. Our balance sheet is well positioned to generate stronger earnings in the higher interest rate environment we expect in coming quarters.” |

Net interest income remained relatively stable at $544 million in the first quarter of 2022, as significant growth in average interest-earning assets was partially offset by NIM compression arising from an increased concentration in cash and securities and the low interest rate environment.
Average interest-earning assets increased $7.8 billion, or 10%, driven by growth in available-for-sale securities, commercial loans (ex-PPP), and money market investments. These increases were partially offset by a $4.7 billion decline in average PPP loans. Average securities increased to 30% of average interest-earning assets, compared with 21%, as we actively deployed excess liquidity into short-to-medium duration securities. Average money market investments, including short-term deposits held at the Federal Reserve, increased $1.2 billion, or 16%.
The net interest margin was 2.60%, compared with 2.86%. The yield on average interest-earning assets was 2.65% in the first quarter of 2022, a decrease of 30 basis points. The yield on total loans decreased 21 basis points to 3.52%. The yield on non-PPP loans decreased 26 basis points, primarily driven by (1) lower yields on loans originated during the past year, compared with yields on loans maturing and amortizing during the same period, and (2) promotional rates on commercial owner-occupied loans and home equity credit lines. The yield on securities remained relatively stable at 1.78%.
The annualized cost of total deposits for the first quarter of 2022 was 0.03%, compared with 0.05%. The rate paid on total deposits and interest-bearing liabilities was 0.06%, a decrease from 0.09% during the first quarter of 2021, which was primarily due to low deposit rates and $7.2 billion in average noninterest bearing deposit growth. Average noninterest bearing deposits as a percentage of total deposits were 50%, compared with 47% for the same prior year period.
In the first quarter of 2022, approximately 4,000 PPP loans, totaling $0.8 billion, were forgiven by the SBA. PPP loans contributed $24 million in interest income during the quarter, compared with $60 million. During the same time periods, approximately $16 million and $31 million of the interest income from PPP loans was related to accelerated

recognition of net unamortized deferred fees due to forgiveness, respectively. At March 31, 2022, the remaining net unamortized deferred fees on PPP loans totaled $24 million.

Total customer-related fees increased $18 million, or 14%, to $151 million, driven by increased card, retail and business banking, and wealth management activity, partially offset by a decrease in loan-related fees and income. Results for the first quarter of 2022 benefited from a one-time adjustment of approximately $6 million in commercial account fees.
Net securities gains and losses decreased $28 million, due to $17 million of negative mark-to-market adjustments during the quarter primarily related to our SBIC investment in Recursion Pharmaceuticals, Inc., and an $11 million gain on the sale of Farmer Mac Class C stock recognized during the prior year period.
Fair value and nonhedge derivative income decreased $12 million from the prior year period. We recognized a $6 million gain during the quarter related to a credit valuation adjustment (“CVA”) on client-related interest rate swaps, compared with an $18 million CVA gain in the prior year period. The CVA may fluctuate from period to period based on the credit quality of our clients and changes in interest rates, which impacts the value of, and our credit exposure to, the client-related interest rate swaps.

During the first quarter of 2022, we made certain financial reporting reclassifications to noninterest expense, primarily to improve the presentation and disclosure of certain expenses related to our ongoing technology investments. Other expense line items were also impacted by these reclassifications, which were adopted retrospectively to January 1, 2020.
Total noninterest expense increased $29 million, or 7%, relative to the prior year quarter. Salaries and benefits expense increased $24 million, or 8%, due to (1) the impact of inflationary and competitive labor market pressures on wages, (2) increases in commissions, (3) increases in incentive compensation accruals arising from improvements in anticipated full-year profitability, and (4) declines in deferred salaries primarily associated with PPP loans originated in the prior year period.
Other noninterest expense increased $7 million, or 47%, primarily due to lower expenses in the prior year period, which benefited from a $5 million valuation adjustment related to the termination of our defined benefit pension plan. Professional and legal services expense decreased $7 million, or 33%, due to third-party assistance associated with PPP loan forgiveness as well as various technology-related and other outsourced services incurred in the prior year period.
Adjusted noninterest expense increased $24 million, or 5%, to $464 million, compared with $440 million for the prior year period, driven primarily by the increase in salaries and benefits expense described previously. The efficiency ratio was 65.8%, compared with 63.5%. For information on non-GAAP financial measures, including differences between noninterest expense and adjusted noninterest expense, see pages 15-16.

Commercial and industrial loans, owner occupied loans, and municipal loans increased $1.5 billion, $0.9 billion, and $0.7 billion, respectively. Consumer 1-4 family residential mortgage loans decreased $0.5 billion, primarily due to continued refinancing activity, while home equity credit lines increased $0.4 billion.
Unfunded lending commitments and letters of credit increased $1.8 billion, or 7%, to $27.3 billion at March 31, 2022, primarily due to growth in our home equity and commercial credit line portfolios.

Net loan and lease charge-offs were $6 million, compared with $8 million in the prior year quarter, reflecting strong credit performance. During the first quarter of 2022, we recorded a negative $33 million provision for credit losses, compared with a negative $132 million provision during the prior year period. The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) was $514 million at March 31, 2022, compared with $695 million at March 31, 2021. The decrease in the ACL was due largely to improvements in economic forecasts and overall credit quality, partially offset by economic uncertainty caused by inflation, supply chain disruptions, and the conflict in Eastern Europe. The ratio of ACL to total loans and leases (ex-PPP) was 1.02% at March 31, 2022, compared with 1.48% at March 31, 2021.

April 25, 2022
Total borrowed funds decreased $1.0 billion, or 43%, to $1.3 billion, from the prior year quarter. The decrease in long-term debt was primarily due to the redemption of $290 million of senior notes during the first quarter of 2022, and the maturity of $281 million of senior notes during the third quarter of 2021. The decrease in overall borrowed funds continues to reflect strong deposit growth.

The common stock dividend was $0.38 per share, compared with $0.34 during the prior year quarter. Weighted average diluted shares outstanding decreased 12.2 million, or 7%, from the first quarter of 2021, primarily due to share repurchases. During the first quarter of 2022, we repurchased 0.8 million common shares outstanding for $50 million.
Preferred stock decreased $126 million due to the redemption of our 5.75% Series H Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock at par value during the second quarter of 2021. Accumulated other comprehensive income decreased to a loss of $1.3 billion at March 31, 2022, primarily due to decreases in the fair value of fixed-rate available-for-sale securities as a result of changes in interest rates.
Tangible book value per common share decreased to $31.97, compared with $38.77, primarily due to the decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income previously described. Estimated common equity tier 1 (“CET1”) capital remained flat at $6.2 billion, and the estimated CET1 capital ratio was 10.0%, compared with 11.2%.
Recent deposit-driven balance sheet growth has resulted in a modest reduction in our risk-weighted regulatory capital ratios, and a larger reduction in our Tier 1 leverage ratio, as the denominator for this ratio is not adjusted for risk. As a result, our Tier 1 leverage ratio declined to 7.3% from 8.3% in the prior year period.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations
(Unaudited)
This press release presents non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to provide investors with additional information. The adjustments to reconcile from the applicable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures are presented in the following schedules. We consider these adjustments to be relevant to ongoing operating results and to provide a meaningful base for period-to-period and company-to-company comparisons. We use these non-GAAP financial measures to assess our performance, financial position, and for presentations of our performance to investors. We believe that presenting these non-GAAP financial measures permits investors to assess our performance on the same basis as that applied by our management and the financial services industry.
Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations and are not necessarily comparable to similar financial measures that may be presented by other financial services companies. Although non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by stakeholders to evaluate a company, they have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results reported under GAAP.
Tangible Common Equity and Related Measures
Tangible common equity and related measures are non-GAAP measures that exclude the impact of intangible assets and their related amortization. We believe these non-GAAP measures provide useful information about our use of shareholders’ equity and provide a basis for evaluating the performance of a business more consistently, whether acquired or developed internally.

Efficiency Ratio and Adjusted Pre-Provision Net Revenue
The efficiency ratio is a measure of operating expense relative to revenue. We believe the efficiency ratio provides useful information regarding the cost of generating revenue. The methodology of determining the efficiency ratio may differ among companies. We make adjustments to exclude certain items that are not generally expected to recur frequently, as identified in the subsequent schedule, which we believe allow for more consistent comparability across periods. Adjusted noninterest expense provides a measure as to how well we are managing our expenses; adjusted pre-provision net revenue (“PPNR”) enables management and others to assess our ability to generate capital. Taxable-equivalent net interest income allows us to assess the comparability of revenue arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources.
