Operator

The next question with D.A. will come Jeff from Rulis Davidson.

Jeff Rulis

Charlie, the start sounds fairly the or the on there? outlook just convert. the regulator maybe this you’re miss quarter, of I of you with -- conversion timing but transaction. well, a by up I in when on to expectation positive It the like Did done date first timing following get to wanted just

Charlie Funk

always the the XXXX. closing quarter talking we end I to Well, But end to to we conservative X now, would around first It would think change. sometime or of the first February, quarter quarter, that, our the give right in close be the we’re of about be right approach But system. be It expect to that And used April. be for could the the but we of can say third convert how would on could now bank that the transaction. still might banks the each happen take.

Jeff Rulis

Great. the got you’ve preferred on view you you And staying the comfortability on you side, then, X%, pending as X% and capital the here, TCE continue a touched buyback How do or area. the active? you pump the to Charlie, brakes on transaction

Charlie Funk

active might shares, during we these levels quarter. degree I the discontinue repurchasing will active. to shares be at continue don’t what But but we expect to we buying the to will think be what back our question be our

range. shares in in recognition that’s TCE range to quite moving not many X.X% the as X.XX% maybe of However, the

Jeff Rulis

me PPP, trends broad and on the as -- last ‘XX. that just core winds the with margin just level core down, includes one expectations mentioned Okay. as X.XX% PPP specific you margin, or into I for think either on And

Barry Ray

includes got all the Jeff, release we’ve PPP Barry, information start. earnings the Yes, in the information. that I’ll

down as core think, there. you have the of in down about and what on bit basis assets X. the true view up that accounting, We a and we it was said, we kind points prior was PPP a and a was points. is the Charlie earning the the I assets take X.XX% would all out at the Reflective earning that the purchase X fact of little landed quarter, we As cost if fund couple of of X.XX%, basis call from yield margin,

seeing we’re on reprice benefit the side what lower. liability So is the really continuing time to from deposits

to The margin liability helpful. what to because will side the with And could the so see, respect side go-forward benefit that’s attenuate. we on the the ultimately been obviously, on asset pressure be start

originating extent margin continue the on the side coupon. happens loans, asset the bit to we at I pressure is example, portfolio could downward little say. what below to There our say would on what be to continue asset pressure the side, would currently, that so and see So are and I a on for that we

Jeff Rulis

Okay. brutal the And I think loans. you on mentioned pricing

deploy overall, mix Reinvesting, of that if continues earning the bit. on some assets of a you more in So that like for I guess it interim? maybe it’s pressure net kind a on sounds a question then, cash. of But

Barry Ray

That’s how view I it, would yes.

Jim Cantrell

is I whole This have is a Jim. don’t -- this Jeff, lot add. to

I right is on think Barry it.

the If what’s the slight on And investment downward there’s loan yields, we there yield, basis in fund X yield. on assets. cost on going in you earning points the last -- movement loan look portfolio downward a the quarter, down of were is at movement slight on

And mind we that moving slow And the the move get is deposit closer CD the going basis runway there’s probably down to my just in So is to only have that a we terminal it’s points. on category really side XX of value low worry how as we that’s that, good. can decrease. that’s I rate book. that. are running But on out I of

to challenge So as mentioned, an have flat a we’ll probably Charlie the little income think quarter, a beyond possibly, itself, flat basis down up look of points little a production I a bit. to may think But side. we loan interest that, bit. a asset. be it at margin next on I I -- of net couple little may turn into the But And and up bit if income, in but
