General
We are Bank7 Corp., a bank holding company headquartered in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Bank7, we operate seven full-service branches in Oklahoma, the Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas metropolitan area and Kansas. We are focused on serving business owners and entrepreneurs by delivering fast, consistent and well-designed loan and deposit products to meet their financing needs. We intend to grow organically by selectively opening additional branches in our target markets and we will also pursue strategic acquisitions.
As a bank holding company, we generate most of our revenue from interest income on loans and from short-term investments. The primary source of funding for our loans and short-term investments are deposits held by our subsidiary, Bank7. We measure our performance by our return on average assets, return on average equity, earnings per share, capital ratios, and our efficiency ratio, which is calculated by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis and noninterest income. As of September 30, 2018, we had total assets of $751.2 million, total loans of $584.8 million, total deposits of $664.3 million and total shareholders’ equity of $82.8 million. In September 2018, in conjunction with our initial public offering, the Company terminated its status as an S Corporation and elected to be treated as a C Corporation. As this termination occurred at the end of the third quarter, we have presented information as pre-tax and pro forma numbers in the non-GAAP reconciliation below.
Our Initial Public Offering
Our initial public offering, or IPO, closed on September 24, 2018 and a total of 2,900,000 shares of common stock were sold at $19.00 per share. After deducting underwriting discounts and offering expenses, the Company received total net proceeds of $50.1 million from the initial public offering and the exercise of the underwriter option. Upon completion of the IPO, the Company became a publicly traded company with our common stock listed on The NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “BSVN”.
GAAP Reconciliation and Management Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Our accounting and reporting policies conform to GAAP and the prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, we also evaluate our performance based on certain additional financial measures discussed in this Form 10-Q as being non-GAAP financial measures. We classify a financial measure as being a non-GAAP financial measure if that financial measure excludes or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding or including amounts, that are included or excluded, as the case may be, in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP as in effect from time to time in the United States in our statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows. Non-GAAP financial measures do not include operating and other statistical measures or ratios or statistical measures calculated using exclusively either financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP, operating measures or other measures that are not non-GAAP financial measures or both.
The non-GAAP financial measures that we discuss in this Form 10-Q should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which we calculate the non-GAAP financial measures that we discuss in this Form 10-Q may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names. It is important to understand how other banking organizations calculate their financial measures with names similar to the non-GAAP financial measures we have discussed in this communication when comparing such non-GAAP financial measures.
Exclusion of loan fee income. We calculate (1) yield on loans (excluding loan fee income) as interest income on loans less loan fee income divided by average total loans and (2) net interest margin (excluding loan fee income) as net interest income less loan fee income divided by average interest-earning assets. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for yield on loans (excluding loan fee income) is yield on loans and for net interest margin (excluding loan fee income) is net interest margin. The following table reconciles, as of the dates set forth below, yield on loans (excluding loan fee income) to yield on loans and net interest margin (excluding loan fee income) to net interest margin: The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for yield on loans (excluding loan fee income) is yield on loans and for net interest margin (excluding loan fee income) is net interest margin. The following table reconciles, as of the dates set forth below, yield on loans (excluding loan fee income) to yield on loans and net interest margin (excluding loan fee income) to net interest margin.

Pre-tax, pre-provision net earnings is defined as income before taxes and provision for loan losses. We believe the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is income before taxes. Disclosure of this measure enables you to compare our operations to those of other banking companies before consideration of taxes and provision expense, which some investors may consider to be a more appropriate comparison given our S Corporation status and recaptures from the allowance for loan losses. We calculate our pro forma provision for income taxes and pro-forma net income, return on average assets, return on average equity, and per share amounts by using a combined C Corporation effective tax rate for federal and state income taxes of 25% in 2018 and 37.4% in 2017. This calculation reflects only the change in our status as an S Corporation and does not give any effect to any other transaction.

Tangible Book Value Per Share. We calculate (1) tangible equity as total shareholders’ equity less goodwill and other intangibles; and (2) tangible book value per share as tangible equity divided by our shares outstanding at the end of the relevant period. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for tangible book value per share is book value per share.
Tangible Shareholders’ Equity to Tangible Assets. We calculate (1) tangible assets as total assets less goodwill and other intangibles; and (2) tangible shareholders’ equity to tangible assets as tangible equity (as defined in the preceding paragraph) divided by tangible assets at the end of the relevant period. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for tangible shareholders’ equity to tangible assets is total shareholders’ equity to total assets.
We believe that tangible book value per share and tangible shareholders’ equity to tangible assets are measures that are important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in changes from period to period in our shareholders’ equity exclusive of changes in intangible assets. Intangible assets have the effect of increasing total shareholders’ equity while not increasing our tangible book value per share or tangible shareholders’ equity to tangible assets. The following table reconciles, as of the dates set forth below, total shareholders’ equity to tangible shareholders’ equity, total assets to tangible assets and presents tangible book value per share compared to book value per share and tangible shareholders’ equity to tangible assets to total shareholders’ equity to total assets:

For the nine months ended 2018, non-recurring loan fee income was reduced by $3.9 million as compared to the same period in 2017. We also incurred $1.0 million less in loan loss provision expense as compared to the same period in 2017. Our strong loan growth and increased loan yields enabled us to offset this $2.9 million decrease in revenue net of loan loss provision. Average total loans were $578.2 million for the nine months ended 2018 as compared $535.6 million for the same period in 2017. Yield on loans, excluding loan fee income, for the nine months ended 2018 was 6.6% as compared to 6.1% for the same period in 2017.
The pre-tax return on average assets was 3.53% for the first nine months of 2018, as compared to 3.96% for the same period in 2017. The pre-tax return on average equity was 25.15% for the first nine months of 2018, as compared to 25.92% for the same period in 2017. The efficiency ratio was 33.54% for the first nine months of 2018, as compared to 41.38% for the same period in 2017.
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin Excluding Loan Fee Income. Due to higher levels of nonrecurring loan fee income in 2017, we have illustrated our net interest margin below, excluding loan fee income. Net interest income, representing interest income less interest expense, was the primary contributor to income and earnings for the periods shown below. Interest income is generated from interest earned on loans, dividends, and interest earned on deposits at other institutions. Interest expense is incurred on interest-bearing liabilities including deposits and other borrowings. Net interest income is evaluated by measuring (i) the yield on loans and other interest-earning assets, (ii) the costs of deposits and other funding sources and (iii) net interest margin. Net interest margin is calculated as the annualized net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets.
Changes in market interest rates on interest-earning assets, or paid by us on interest-bearing liabilities, as well as the volume and types of interest-earning assets, interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing liabilities, are usually the largest drivers of periodic changes in net interest margin and net interest income.
The following table presents, for the periods indicated, information about: (i) weighted average balances, the total dollar amount of interest income from interest-earning assets and the resultant average yields; (ii) average balances, the total dollar amount of interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities and the resultant average rates;(iii) net interest income; and (iv) the net interest margin.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin Including Loan Fee Income. Net interest income, representing interest income less interest expense, was the primary contributor to income and earnings for the periods shown Interest income is generated from interest earned on loans, dividends, and interest earned on deposits at other institutions. Interest expense is incurred on interest-bearing liabilities including deposits and other borrowings. Net interest income is evaluated by measuring (i) yield on loans and other interest-earning assets, (ii) the costs of deposits and other funding sources and (iii) net interest margin. Net interest margin is calculated as the annualized net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets.
Changes in market interest rates and interest rates earned on interest-earning assets or paid on interest-bearing liabilities, as well as the volume and types of interest-earning assets, interest-bearing and noninterest-bearing liabilities, are usually the largest drivers of periodic changes in net interest margin and net interest income.
The following table presents, for the periods indicated, information about: (i) weighted average balances, the total dollar amount of interest income from interest-earning assets and the resultant average yields; (ii) average balances, the total dollar amount of interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities and the resultant average rates;(iii) net interest income; and (iv) the net interest margin.

Provision for Loan Losses
Credit risk is inherent in the business of making loans. We establish an allowance for loan losses (“Allowance”) through charges to earnings, which are shown in the statements of income as the provision for loan losses. Specifically identifiable and quantifiable known losses are charged off against the allowance. The provision for loan losses is determined by conducting a quarterly evaluation of the adequacy of our allowance and applying the shortfall or excess, if any, to the current quarter’s expense. See the discussion under “—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates—Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses.” This has the effect of creating variability in the amount and frequency of charges to our earnings. The provision for loan losses and level of allowance for each period are dependent upon many factors, including loan growth, net charge-offs, changes in the composition of the loan portfolio, delinquencies, management’s assessment of the quality of the loan portfolio, the valuation of problem loans and the general economic conditions in our market areas.
The allowance as of September 30, 2018 was $7.7 million compared to $7.5 million as of September 30, 2017, and the increase of $232,000, or 3.0%, was primarily due to an increase in our total loan portfolio. The allowance as a percentage of loans was 1.32% at September 30, 2018 as compared to 1.41% at September 30, 2017.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2018 was $319,000 compared to $382,000 for the same period in 2017, a decrease of $63,000, or 16.5%. The primary reason for the decrease relates to the sale of our mortgage servicing portfolio at the end of 2017, representing $39,000 of the $83,000 decrease in other income and fees. The following table sets forth the major components of our noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017:

This increase was primarily attributable to four additional employees in Dallas/Fort Worth and normal course salary adjustments at the end of the third quarter in 2017. In spite of expansion into the Dallas/Fort Worth via a de novo branch that opened in August 2017, the number of full-time equivalent employees was 75 at September 30, 2018 compared to 78 at September 30, 2017. However, there were several open positions at September 30, 2018. Average number of employees during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was 75.4 compared to 74.1 during same period in 2017.
Furniture and equipment expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $491,000 compared to $590,000 for the same period in 2017, a decrease of $99,000, or 16.78%. This decrease related to less software, equipment, and vehicle expense in 2018 compared to the same period in 2017.
Other expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $1.2 million compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 2017, a decrease of $96,000, or 7.41%.

We have established internal concentration limits in the loan portfolio for CRE loans, hospitality loans, energy loans, and construction loans, among others. All loan types are within our established limits. We use underwriting guidelines to assess each borrower’s historical cash flow to determine debt service capabilities, and we further stress test the customer’s debt service capability under higher interest rate scenarios as well as other underlying macro-economic factors. Financial and performance covenants are used in commercial lending to allow us to react to a borrower’s deteriorating financial condition, should that occur.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses
The allowance is based on management’s estimate of potential losses inherent in the loan portfolio. In the opinion of management, the allowance is adequate to absorb estimated losses in the portfolio as of each balance sheet date. While management uses available information to analyze losses on loans, future additions to the allowance may be necessary based on changes in economic conditions. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review the Company’s allowance. In analyzing the adequacy of the allowance, a comprehensive loan grading system to determine risk potential in loans is utilized together with the results of internal credit reviews.
To determine the adequacy of the allowance, the loan portfolio is broken into segments based on loan type. Historical loss experience factors by segment, adjusted for changes in trends and conditions, are used to determine an indicated allowance for each portfolio segment. These factors are evaluated and updated based on the composition of the specific loan segment. Other considerations include volumes and trends of delinquencies, nonaccrual loans, levels of bankruptcies, criticized and classified loan trends, expected losses on real estate secured loans, new credit products and policies, economic conditions, concentrations of credit risk and the experience and abilities of our lending personnel.
The allowance was $7.7 million at September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The increasing trend was related to, and in conjunction with, loan growth.

Nonperforming Assets
Loans are considered delinquent when principal or interest payments are past due 30 days or more. Delinquent loans may remain on accrual status between 30 days and 90 days past due. Loans on which the accrual of interest has been discontinued are designated as nonaccrual loans. Typically, the accrual of interest on loans is discontinued when principal or interest payments are past due 90 days or when, in the opinion of management, there is a reasonable doubt as to collectability of the obligation. When loans are placed on nonaccrual status, all interest previously accrued but not collected is reversed against current period interest income. Income on a nonaccrual loan is subsequently recognized only to the extent that cash is received and the loan’s principal balance is deemed collectible. Loans are restored to accrual status when loans become well-secured and management believes full collectability of principal and interest is probable.
A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the loan agreement. Impaired loans include loans on nonaccrual status and loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring (TDR). Income from a loan on nonaccrual status is recognized to the extent cash is received and when the loan’s principal balance is deemed collectible. Depending on a particular loan’s circumstances, we measure impairment of a loan based upon either the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan’s effective interest rate, the loan’s observable market price, or the fair value of the collateral less estimated costs to sell if the loan is collateral dependent. A loan is considered collateral dependent when repayment of the loan is based solely on the liquidation of the collateral. Fair value, where possible, is determined by independent appraisals, typically on an annual basis. Between appraisal periods, the fair value may be adjusted based on specific events, such as if deterioration of quality of the collateral comes to our attention as part of our problem loan monitoring process, or if discussions with the borrower lead us to believe the last appraised value no longer reflects the actual market for the collateral. The impairment amount on a collateral dependent loan is charged off to the allowance if deemed not collectible and the impairment amount on a loan that is not collateral dependent is set up as a specific reserve.
In cases where a borrower experiences financial difficulties and we make certain concessionary modifications to contractual terms, the loan is classified as a TDR. Included in certain loan categories of impaired loans are TDRs on which we have granted certain material concessions to the borrower as a result of the borrower experiencing financial difficulties. The concessions granted by us may include, but are not limited to: (1) a modification in which the maturity date, timing of payments or frequency of payments is modified, (2) an interest rate lower than the current market rate for new loans with similar risk, or (3) a combination of the first two concessions.
If a borrower on a restructured TDR has demonstrated performance under the previous terms, is not experiencing financial difficulty and shows the capacity to continue to perform under the restructured terms, the loan will remain on accrual status. Otherwise, the loan will be placed on nonaccrual status until the borrower demonstrates a sustained period of performance, which generally requires six consecutive months of payments. Loans identified as TDRs are evaluated for impairment using the present value of the expected cash flows or the estimated fair value of the collateral, if the loan is collateral dependent. The fair value is determined, when possible, by an appraisal of the property less estimated costs related to liquidation of the collateral. The appraisal amount may also be adjusted for current market conditions. Adjustments to reflect the present value of the expected cash flows or the estimated fair value of collateral dependent loans are a component in determining an appropriate allowance, and as such, may result in increases or decreases to the provision for loan losses in current and future earnings.
Real estate we acquire as a result of foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is classified as other real estate owned, or OREO, until sold, and is initially recorded at fair value less costs to sell when acquired, establishing a new cost basis.
Nonperforming loans include loans 90 days past due and still accruing, TDRs still accruing and loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis. Nonperforming assets consist of nonperforming loans plus OREO. Loans accounted for on a nonaccrual basis were $729,000 as of September 30, 2018 and $1.2 million as of December 31, 2017. OREO was $110,000 as of September 30, 2018 and $100,000 as of December 31, 2017.

In addition to the past due and nonaccrual criteria, the Company also evaluates loans according to its internal risk grading system. Loans are segregated between pass, watch, special mention, and substandard categories. The definitions of those categories are as follows:
Pass: These loans generally conform to Bank policies, are characterized by policy-conforming advance rates on collateral, and have well-defined repayment sources. In addition, these credits are extended to borrowers and guarantors with a strong balance sheet and either substantial liquidity or a reliable income history.
Watch: These loans are still considered “Pass” credits; however, various factors such as industry stress, material changes in cash flow or financial conditions, or deficiencies in loan documentation, or other risk issues determined by the lending officer, Commercial Loan Committee or Credit Quality Committee warrant a heightened sense and frequency of monitoring.
Special mention: These loans have observable weaknesses or evidence of imprudent handling or structural issues. The weaknesses require close attention, and the remediation of those weaknesses is necessary. No risk of probable loss exists. Credits in this category are expected to quickly migrate to “Watch” or “Substandard” as this is viewed as a transitory loan grade.
Substandard: These loans are not adequately protected by the sound worth and debt service capacity of the borrower, but may be well-secured. The loans have defined weaknesses relative to cash flow, collateral, financial condition or other factors that might jeopardize repayment of all of the principal and interest on a timely basis. There is the possibility that a future loss will occur if weaknesses are not remediated.
Substandard loans totaled $9.6 million as of September 30, 2018, an increase of $5.2 million compared to December 31, 2017. The increase primarily related to one commercial relationship, comprised of four notes totaling $7.9 million with no specific reserve.

Troubled Debt Restructurings
TDRs are defined as those loans in which a bank, for economic or legal reasons related to a borrower’s financial difficulties, grants a concession to the borrower that it would not otherwise consider. A loan is considered impaired when, based on current information and events, it is probable that the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due from the borrower in accordance with original contractual terms of the loan. Loans with insignificant delays or insignificant short-falls in the amount of payments expected to be collected are not considered to be impaired. Loans defined as individually impaired, based on applicable accounting guidance, include larger balance nonperforming loans and TDRs.
The following table presents loans restructured as TDRs as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.

There were no payment defaults with respect to loans modified as TDRs as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017.
Impairment analyses are prepared on TDRs in conjunction with the normal allowance process. TDRs restructured during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 required $0 and $300,000 in specific reserves, respectively. There were no charge-offs on TDRs for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 or the twelve months ended December 31, 2017.

Deposits
We gather deposits primarily through our seven branch locations and online though our website. We offer a variety of deposit products including demand deposit accounts and interest-bearing products, such as savings accounts and certificates of deposit. We put continued effort into gathering noninterest-bearing demand deposit accounts through loan production cross-selling, customer referrals, marketing efforts and various involvement with community networks. Some of our interest-bearing deposits are obtained through brokered transactions. We participate in the CDARS program, where customer funds are placed into multiple certificates of deposit, each in an amount under the standard FDIC insurance maximum of $250,000, and placed at a network of banks across the United States.
Total deposits as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017 were $664.3 million and $625.8 million, respectively. The following table sets forth deposit balances by certain categories as of the dates indicated and the percentage of each deposit category to total deposits.

Liquidity
Liquidity refers to our ability to meet the cash flow requirements of depositors and borrowers, while at the same time meeting our operating, capital and strategic cash flow needs, all at a reasonable cost. We continuously monitor our liquidity position to ensure that assets and liabilities are managed in a manner that will meet all short-term and long-term cash requirements. We manage our liquidity position to meet the daily cash flow needs of customers, while maintaining an appropriate balance between assets and liabilities to meet the return on investment objectives of our shareholders.
Our liquidity position is supported by management of liquid assets and access to alternative sources of funds. Our liquid assets include cash, interest-bearing deposits in correspondent banks and fed funds sold. Other available sources of liquidity include wholesale deposits and borrowings from correspondent banks and FHLB advances.
Our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements are primarily met through cash flow from operations, redeployment of prepaying and maturing balances in our loan portfolios, and increases in customer deposits. Other alternative sources of funds will supplement these primary sources to the extent necessary to meet additional liquidity requirements on either a short-term or long-term basis.
As of September 30, 2018, we had no unsecured fed funds lines with correspondent depository institutions with no amounts advanced. In addition, based on the values of loans pledged as collateral, we had borrowing availability with the FHLB of $37.3 million as of September 30, 2018 and $22.6 million as of December 31, 2017.
Capital Requirements
We are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal and state banking regulators. Failure to meet regulatory capital requirements may result in certain mandatory and possible additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on our financial statements. Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for “prompt corrective action” (described below), We must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of our assets, liabilities and certain off-balance sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting policies. The capital amounts and classifications are subject to qualitative judgments by the federal banking regulators about components, risk weightings and other factors. Qualitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require us to maintain minimum amounts and ratios of Common Equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) capital, Tier 1 capital, total capital to risk-weighted assets, and Tier 1 capital to average consolidated assets, referred to as the “leverage ratio.”
As of September 30, 2018, the Bank was in compliance with all applicable regulatory requirements and categorized as “well-capitalized” under the prompt corrective action frame work. There have been no conditions or events since September 30, 2018 that management believes would change this classification.
The table below presents our applicable capital requirements, as well as our capital ratios as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017. The Company exceeded all regulatory capital requirements and the Bank was considered to be “well-capitalized” as of the dates reflected in the tables below.

Shareholders’ equity provides a source of permanent funding, allows for future growth and provides a cushion to withstand unforeseen adverse developments. Total shareholders’ equity increased to $82.8 million as of September 30, 2018, compared to $69.2 million as of December 31, 2017. The increases were driven by retained capital from net income during the periods.

We believe that we will be able to meet our contractual obligations as they come due through the maintenance of adequate cash levels. We expect to maintain adequate cash levels through profitability, loan repayment and maturity activity and continued deposit gathering activities. We have in place various borrowing mechanisms for both short-term and long-term liquidity needs.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We are a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financing needs of our customers. These financial instruments include commitments to extend credit and standby letters of credit. Those instruments involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit and interest rate risk in excess of the amount recognized in the consolidated balance sheet. The contractual or notional amounts of those instruments reflect the extent of involvement we have in particular classes of financial instruments.
Commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many of the commitments are expected to expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. We evaluate each customer’s creditworthiness on a case-by-case basis. The amount of collateral obtained, if we deemed necessary upon extension of credit, is based on management’s credit evaluation of the counterparty. The Company also estimates a reserve for potential losses associated with off-balance sheet commitments and letters of credit. It is included in other liabilities in the Company’s consolidated statements of condition, with any related provisions to the reserve included in non-interest expense in the consolidated statement of income.
In determining the reserve for unfunded lending commitments, a process similar to the one used for the allowance is employed. Based on historical experience, loss factors, adjusted for expected funding, are applied to the Company’s off-balance sheet commitments and letters of credit to estimate the potential for losses.
Standby letters of credit are conditional commitments issued by the Company to guarantee the performance of the customer to a third party. They are intended to be disbursed, subject to certain conditions, upon request of the borrower.
The following table summarizes commitments as of the dates presented.

Commitments to extend credit | | $ | 135,802 | | | $ | 145,888 | |

Total | | $ | 137,427 | | | $ | 147,432 | |
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our accounting and reporting policies conform to GAAP and conform to general practices within the industry in which we operate. To prepare financial statements in conformity with GAAP, management makes estimates, assumptions and judgments based on available information. These estimates, assumptions and judgments affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates, assumptions and judgments are based on information available as of the date of the financial statements and, as this information changes, actual results could differ from the estimates, assumptions and judgments reflected in the financial statement. In particular, management has identified several accounting policies that, due to the estimates, assumptions and judgments inherent in those policies, are critical in understanding our financial statements.
The JOBS Act permits us an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards affecting public companies. We have elected to take advantage of this extended transition period, which means that the financial statements included in this Form 10-Q, as well as any financial statements that we file in the future, will not be subject to all new or revised accounting standards generally applicable to public companies for the transition period for so long as we remain an emerging growth company or until we affirmatively and irrevocably opt out of the extended transition period under the JOBS Act.
Additional information about these policies can be found in Note 1 of the Company’s consolidated unaudited financial statements as of September 30, 2018.
ITEM 3.
Interest Rate Sensitivity and Market Risk
As a financial institution, our primary component of market risk is interest rate volatility. Our financial management policy provides management with the guidelines for effective funds management, and we have established a measurement system for monitoring our net interest rate sensitivity position. We have historically managed our sensitivity position within our established guidelines.
Fluctuations in interest rates will ultimately impact both the level of income and expense recorded on most of our assets and liabilities, and the market value of all interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities, other than those which have a short term to maturity. Interest rate risk is the potential of economic losses due to future interest rate changes. These economic losses can be reflected as a loss of future net interest income and/or a loss of current fair market values. The objective is to measure the effect on net interest income and to adjust the balance sheet to minimize the inherent risk while at the same time maximizing income.
We manage our exposure to interest rates by structuring our balance sheet in the ordinary course of business. We do not enter into instruments such as leveraged derivatives, financial options or financial future contracts to mitigate interest rate risk from specific transactions. Based upon the nature of our operations, we are not subject to foreign exchange or commodity price risk. We do not own any trading assets.
Our exposure to interest rate risk is managed by the Asset/Liability Committee, or the ALCO Committee, in accordance with policies approved by the Holding Company’s board of directors. The ALCO Committee formulates strategies based on appropriate levels of interest rate risk. In determining the appropriate level of interest rate risk, the ALCO Committee considers the impact on earnings and capital on the current outlook on interest rates, potential changes in interest rates, regional economies, liquidity, business strategies and other factors. The ALCO Committee meets regularly to review, among other things, the sensitivity of assets and liabilities to interest rate changes, the book and market values of assets and liabilities, commitments to originate loans and the maturities of investments and borrowings. Additionally, the ALCO Committee reviews liquidity, cash flow flexibility, maturities of deposits and consumer and commercial deposit activity. Management employs methodologies to manage interest rate risk, which include an analysis of relationships between interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities and an interest rate shock simulation model.
We use interest rate risk simulation models and shock analyses to test the interest rate sensitivity of net interest income and fair value of equity, and the impact of changes in interest rates on other financial metrics. Contractual maturities and re-pricing opportunities of loans are incorporated in the model. The average lives of non-maturity deposit accounts are based on decay assumptions and are incorporated into the model. We utilize third-party experts to periodically evaluate the performance of our non-maturity deposit accounts to develop the decay assumptions. All of the assumptions used in our analyses are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the model cannot precisely measure future net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in market interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from the model’s simulated results due to timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and the application and timing of various management strategies.
On a quarterly basis, we run various simulation models including a static balance sheet and dynamic growth balance sheet. These models test the impact on net interest income and fair value of equity from changes in market interest rates under various scenarios. Under the static model and dynamic growth models, rates are shocked instantaneously and ramped rates change over a 12-month and 24-month horizon based upon parallel and non-parallel yield curve shifts. Parallel shock scenarios assume instantaneous parallel movements in the yield curve compared to a flat yield curve scenario. Non-parallel simulation involves analysis of interest income and expense under various changes in the shape of the yield curve. Our internal policy regarding internal rate risk simulations currently specifies that for gradual parallel shifts of the yield curve, estimated net interest income at risk for the subsequent one-year period should not decline by more than 10% for a -100 basis point shift, 5% for a 100 basis point shift, 10% for a 200 basis point shift, 15% for a 300 basis point shift, and 20% for a 400 basis point shift.
The following tables summarize the simulated change in net interest income and fair value of equity over a 12-month horizon as of the dates indicated:
| | | As of September 30, | | | As of December 31, | |
| | | 2018 | | | 2017 | |
Change in Interest Rates (Basis Points) | | | Percent Change in Net Interest Income | | | Percent Change in Fair Value of Equity | | | Percent Change in Net Interest Income | | | Percent Change in Fair Value of Equity | |
+400 | | | | 46,41 | % | | | 23.81 | % | | | 41.60 | % | | | 21.96 | % |
+300 | | | | 33.83 | | | | 22.37 | | | | 28.87 | | | | 20.54 | |
+200 | | | | 22.20 | | | | 20.84 | | | | 17.24 | | | | 19.01 | |
+100 | | | | 10.48 | | | | 19.18 | | | | 6.23 | | | | 17.36 | |
Base | | | | (0.74 | ) | | | 17.38 | | | | 0.04 | | | | 15.59 | |
-100 | | | | (8.54 | ) | | | 15.49 | | | | (4.72 | ) | | | 13.73 | |
The results are primarily due to behavior of demand, money market and savings deposits during such rate fluctuations. We have found that, historically, interest rates on these deposits change more slowly than changes in the discount and fed funds rates. This assumption is incorporated into the simulation model and is generally not fully reflected in a gap analysis. The assumptions incorporated into the model are inherently uncertain and, as a result, the model cannot precisely measure future net interest income or precisely predict the impact of fluctuations in market interest rates on net interest income. Actual results will differ from the model’s simulated results due to timing, magnitude and frequency of interest rate changes as well as changes in market conditions and the application and timing of various strategies.
Impact of Inflation
Our consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. These require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars, without considering changes in the relative value of money over time due to inflation or recession.
Unlike many industrial companies, substantially all of our assets and liabilities are monetary in nature. As a result, interest rates have a more significant impact on our performance than the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates may not necessarily move in the same direction or in the same magnitude as the prices of goods and services. However, other operating expenses do reflect general levels of inflation.
ITEM 4.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Management of the Company, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness as of September 30, 2018 of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management was required to apply judgment in evaluating its controls and procedures. Based on this evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the fiscal quarter covered by this Form 10-Q.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There was no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the three months ended September 30, 2018 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, such controls.
PART II
ITEM 1.
From time to time, we are a party to legal actions that are routine and incidental to our business. Given the nature, scope and complexity of the extensive legal and regulatory landscape applicable to our business, including laws and regulations governing consumer protections, fair lending, fair labor, privacy, information security and anti-money laundering and anti-terrorism laws, we, like all banking organizations, are subject to heightened legal and regulatory compliance and litigation risk. However, based upon available information and in consultation with legal counsel, management is of the opinion that no proceedings exist, either individually or in the aggregate, which, if determined adversely to the Company, would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial statements.
ITEM 1A.
There were no material changes from the risks disclosed in the Risk Factors section of the Company's prospectus filed with the SEC on September 20, 2018 pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
ITEM 2.
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
There were no repurchases or unregistered sales of the Company’s stock during the quarter covered by the Form 10-Q. As described in the prospectus filed with the SEC on September 20, 2018 pursuant to Rule 424(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and relating to our initial public offering, $50.0 million of the net proceeds from the offering were used to fund a cash distribution to our pre-initial public offering shareholders, which was intended to be non-taxable to them. The balance of the proceeds for the offering was held at the Company and used for general corporate purposes.
