Instructions]. [Operator

Spector our have from from Eric question Raymond James. first We

is line Your open. now

Eric Spector

Hey, good quarter. morning everybody. Congrats on a great

trends they're on here. some how the or some stabilize that May more they and and the the the the just June in of the funding noninterest-bearing outflows started earlier get David wanted trending Feaster Just dialing I was and in July? and whether side of for color here quarter in throughout timing in quarter to early to

Nicole Stokes

Yes.

of in bit to see in, say need of early in What the March. not little more saw certainly account So you're a exactly kind came the signature settle silicon the that kind on of moving our of starting of right. and now noise their aspect movement refining they We of remember, that more of that that did we're I We kind excess. balances movement, larger and that because quarter maybe that the customers aggressive see all would down. in operating just we're the and is in all some big

does certainly that continue is deposits. They seen feel like would be XX% robust. if very we XX-day keep which of that our here XX% slow, XX% we've win. that in is range, what still really but to stabilize? we're good. -- can we are noninterest-bearing, And The total noninterest-bearing a So to question where that's is And that

Eric Spector

appreciate are you trending? color. the and your Got loan risk-adjusted it. get throughout wanted on continue I to expect year. next where the returns yields seeing you're see And I when and and to then just year into loan And growth growth loan to still thoughts

any color from that if you provide curious Just could end?

Palmer Proctor

good Yes, question.

mortgage increased reflects that is seasonality, and lending we which tendency had is the the I for a more that have that of think warehouse, seasonality lot where kind the we third came deck to kind more in volume times reflected business. to slide the see growth from our quarter of are the revert touched and in quarter historical back very some what business, our second of you'll of we in more strong has of on generally last a mortgage

the that there in back up rate, is right quarter -- moderate of run end we'll which in year. -- if that would us was back rate probably In the it mid-single-digit to really the terms that production, I of end of expect you so kind that out fourth around our puts of growth where

expect beyond So I growth and any to see that. don't above increased

we're And yields is hearing board, we're peer lot better the better banks, what the in yields deposits. and getting think yes, getting lot vertical, terms on of name all getting of portfolio and you're the -- their I yields similar which from across you of a the a to on and portfolios, probably other the

and pressures that the just has the market. given are but in think all us that certainly So discipline I to place deposit that's relief is out a been in

Eric Spector

an And going then Got rapidly just loan guess is an I of input, is it Thanks. margin not, it. and growth costs. not Got given just it. costs rising output, obviously, funding funding but off

NIM what you about here? I assumptions, assuming think but think more rate your trajectory from no about trajectory you that NIM you have know guys hikes, forward? curious NII, how curious Just in going Just how here just the don't

Nicole Stokes

Yes.

not we our we any assumptions into guidance. any have -- do So more built don't rate rate have

based So rates. on flat this is

our programmatically we as to gotten close to get. be have We as neutral what sheet can about balance

those or of minus X% about plus or in minus are fields. XXX We plus

close real question your to very is very, mix. the is margin neutral. noninterest-bearing question would that say of I of So driver exactly first that

from us, So goes every noninterest $XXX somewhere. goes about to bearing that for you have and million it assume

margin. CD whether like about every CD, higher an $XXX of goes advance the assuming So even higher that there is higher the a into of of that it million money FHLB a basis that markets, higher or goes rate kind in or points -- two on movement

do movement very -- to we're competitor certainly neutral, noninterest-bearing to can XXX margin deposit I -- as from very interest-bearing still we've don't that what think side. and just on I doing I not pressure some competitors to well pressure not with So I think are as of though that that troughed think some even I'm close the our ready pleased say the we're cause that,

even like going feel that think the to I we've the more of we quarters. giving bit the can it, next gain to on the that on market will we're show few -- what's in on anything little hit So bottom we're side. think side, that up going Again, over get don't probably though repricing practicality yet, a the deposit be the loan may the cause compression model going I

Eric Spector

I'll the back. Got appreciate it. and just then one step I And last question color.

continued Just point, you the this at expense in franchise? core good do questions. Thanks investment obviously, taking you with and run on the these juggle expenses, the NII about how versus think pressures costs how for rate

Nicole Stokes

some it's kind and Sure. are XXXX There the last on probably of some we are nine we've inflation definitely Where things months. benefit the stabilized a more move. side. of wage expense, are is What that over seen the of anticipating,

year. we anticipate health Just going the of with some up care next costs, benefit for costs

that modeling. We're already in

mortgage. we've really X% X% guided good job -- that -- we expenses increase of expenses, to see we difference next a really kind before, than do so of of that kind guided I a again, think And in I year. no increased still costs. those And while the to we've that do controlling that do of a X%. and excluding good then also between We're X% And the some insurance and variable kind insurance job but of costs kind of controlling what we kind in of benefit can, of again, health cost FDIC

take kind I out So if noninterest look that you the to at that's X% mortgage everything would and of expense. where increase guide in X% else,

Eric Spector

on a again Thank Congrats good you. Got it. quarter.

Nicole Stokes

you. thank Great,

Operator

Gailey from Brady We coming question have KBW. next our from

line Your now is open.

Brady Gailey

called So was half expenses a you they the -- think XQ you just third the I second expenses how was look year, dollars in like a just a when take know you next but about couple heard at the expense heavy. expenses? you year, XQ in but at one-timers? I do guidance one-timers Like up of quarter couple were because in the step had little when to quarter, I I fraud a for relative look of wondering think back could out this of down

Nicole Stokes

Yes. I'm two. the glad I is is fee. -- three these one-timers did exactly messaging deferred XX we that FAS that or that don't the know have

think was that mortgage I But as continue. variable. far will as the

the the litigation down kind nonrecurring third forgery be comes the of I or quarter recur. expected that back to quarter. fraud, be to quarter would And then production in then not second stepping would mortgage the resolution, think when again down similar So so in quarter, fourth and fourth and a

Brady Gailey

And of All efficiency to you have XX%. right. know an guys Okay. I to then guided XX% ratio

margin like it guys I gone quarters, coming been the just feels the given from for has three the As headwinds, did it like you XX% revenue industry. XX%. has to and the for now Like ratio the XX%, down, mean, in efficiency last

that's efficiency like I stuff keep think ratio above cost Is or you near-term. that expense side potentially the do at like in that possible? cutting the you it below? to feels think it that do range there can -- is XX% on Or slip could

Nicole Stokes

on little a and think people said more, I it really is is back be there? started really target XX% would -- the you a see gave our to even we and did up upon range. margin, XX% said big be when that And to creep year a rates even lower would last we when the do bit Yes, what XX% go guidance depending while XX%. still at stronger and that's that's difference rates we depending our What And XX%, really a margin. where margin.

XX%, still forecast take our comes XX%, these and this when So obviously, has to quarter, in to kind XX.X% the down to that XX%. XX% of that closer us you some of closer one-offs out

XX%. the we're on lower between So the -- halfway we're of the actually to end XX%

goal So under that by for stay remainder still the is XX% year. year of the end -- the to this of

Brady Gailey

more from another this a a Or continue you factors step to build? for me, reserve decline quarter. level kind mean, continued for the that now. build that really Okay. the is you're robust with little and you feel if And here? bit, about you'll see then reserve think I finally like do front-loaded happy took going think Do some It's you up where near-term? it pretty macro you of be How do to reserve

Nicole Stokes

Yes.

from is our Our quarter really forecast. XX% CRE the of for year one index. model-driven coming pricing that's provision use We a this economic

reserve improving forecast. that starts model some declining by the economic it driven. So kind forecast. like not showing qualitative until conditions, This starts depending upon versus all driven the this. until But I of And it's prices. could was builds that again, was forecast model drove factors CRE This feel showing improvement continue

Operator

next Casey our Whitman from Sandler. have from Piper We question

Your now line open. is

Casey Whitman

the grow to from the some inflection So may that earlier not little stabilize think level but might growth the an bottom the think half piggybacking start have on maybe where Or in a we or of you we NII too for do point hit that's reached year? that we you the with optimistic? quarter the questions, loan margin, back see of do second

Nicole Stokes

would again, say on I on side. at of of interest because really NII shift bearing. of XX% the is trough. this. mix of even we deposits -- have all that that unhesitant and noninterest-bearing we to wildcard a mix, not potentially think that the stabilizing I so we guidance deposit of definitely see And much could that That's the margin maintain the take a then in is my But based If dig could and that should grow increasing.

NII pickup again, asset the it's seeing growth. that we're more trough is a I the we're deposit We're on on where and think as potential expected. cost side as But focused. So side really

pressure all on the other other think you're your the think wasn't deposit that's any what don't media And -- hearing expected what banks, the I and I was of side. any different pressure deposit from probably. than

Palmer Proctor

there, those those all Casey, news of we're terms expiring good heavy the of wars that of to, out there. is dates the as a were are maturing sign-up more or there most the you specials which seeing, out is offered in lot some for rate of what aggressive the But least at in in our terms growth for markets, are markets, the banks know, of that

So our most pressure, urban markets that of at funding least subsided. in is

that with moved so money already most that And have it. have moved people

of of that benefit deposit the era, of environment end I which hopefully we're a So pricing. us towards relaxed of all getting should think terms that in in terms more

Casey Whitman

Yes.

Okay. capital hear. you're Good And stock through walk with here and us thinking you rebound? weighing Palmer, to of now about how uses just can then the

Palmer Proctor

Yes.

you all not accretive tangible it's this buybacks is obviously think when trading we're have the book did I do hard quarter, book a saw, and which value to below at to time non-dilutive. tangible we

in small But dividend the the have the we're a is. comfortable We I there we place, don't us, this anticipate quarter. preservation, very did activity do So our for in buybacks where any quiver, capital that it's arrows but have buyback.

capital So right we more the about preservation as now, it's go forward.

Nicole Stokes

we next for ready question? the operator, our are Ellie,

King Your with Securities. next from Truist Brandon comes question

Your line open. is

Brandon King

Or -- can more your deposits? the of grow more What to growth kind from you strategy of core get those do you you through deposits? forward. looking Are of here? of to for deposits more funding So achieve I is broker wanted your kind broker going think insight expectation into

the from but it room if intent to liquidity standpoint, So grow deposits. needed we there's a core is

Brandon King

you. Got

stronger could see So the mortgage in uptick again we an assuming right? third I'm warehouse just quarter, in is brokerage,

Nicole Stokes

We our FHLB. on up then the would look cyclical quarter third at municipal and or remember, brokered near of And end of a having sheet, balance typically, we fourth in. quarter, money come the lot end

would that of slow So fourth kind in quarter start this well, kind as of quarter. the remainder to and in year third the of

another So us. that's for source funding

Brandon King

balance And sheet? Okay. also municipal on come rates you remind sort us could of what the the for money, that

Nicole Stokes

Yes. with is current typically very be. our We cost competitive what spot would

X%, savings. kind cost X% that those of that do markets our money were quarter But So in at want I X.XX%, now to to X.XX% spot end. X.X%, so do savings around

in fairly change that are with rates. We maybe stay assuming those those a less Fed they level because So to no would municipals bit little expect collateralized.

Brandon King

potentially is Okay. some those of mature help will I'm And the kind you duration what assuming deposits, local to expecting later are broker pay the deposits? And of this year? what down maybe

Nicole Stokes

Yes.

structures. have those We

haven't off. a But we grow not one as to big can deposits, so very it's So -- we're pay amount that those structured not and broker. month every certain they're able core we have structured, it's maturing very lumpy like we

do XX% be of to year haven't we're from of that ratio now where the to in staggered, to end is our We able kind the targeting.

Brandon King

sense was compared give wanted charged then were the loan portfolio? large office loan unique a regarding That's that Could about rest the what office to was, of how And the ask of of I Okay. factors us to situation kind off. and you potential that helpful. that your

Palmer Proctor

or over year. itself for of kind loan a the Brandon, a little another that in part one we've Okay, been of collection is something

The really million the it a while. amount been right So loan original with has or excess in mark. dealt we've $XX for was something around

was that the difference of there conservative that to to really property at smaller have final into it. empty I down our been, tenant is on an did a you foreclosure loan. in but there. is we a maker it we sort that, something on So it on it's on that's get moved appraisal down even efforts building And the in what a year a write that guess the maybe is But we started that approach ago. and though time it collection updated OREO, we acquired When there relative it, as mind, took is over the that finally an

Palmer Proctor

Yes.

will is, be the still have see still warehouse mortgage and part big it saw you'll across of what obviously, and CRE some will think mortgage of in of even the We're the the C&I owner-occupied the excess was the opportunities and I some good and of moderate a obviously, then is end in mid-single-digits. seeing finance. equipment But which that board. pretty year, the growth towards you

in those in any be than with all consistent. pretty one It think to the we talked as growth I about area -- mortgage is warehouse. going areas be So the concentrated other it's won't

Russell Gunther

And net Okay. switching last Thanks perspective. just from then Great. charge-off gears, a me Palmer. couple for

out was Was was this came that charged with losses there of million Balboa that additional So just kind of what on the just curious or it $X.X there. quarter. off

so extraordinary down. in equipment in finance the that drive really second the of the And net would item particular losses quarter

is got higher reason don't of why the The of grow amount little today we've that year. charge-off a whole saw somewhat this a portfolio But of run business the it's point. cycle. from barometer would anticipate a bit That's than we last I little certainly rate

stable little I probably bit going lower forward. think it's trending a to

So is well it certainly managed.

And somewhat anticipated -- about would guess rate the well, to I it for was anticipated months when side going we that, on did sub-XX%. additional little that ago fair be is losses. is opposite a due business on new of diligence back we XX that just it, bit bring the

question with Marinac Your Christopher from Janney Scott. comes next Montgomery

Your open. line is

Christopher Marinac

that forward loan as then to as the What charge-offs the also and said, go risk-adjusted on of Thanks. theme yields kind as Balboa. just you for the as reset Good a we morning. should be the modify want little keep for just portfolio? of portfolio bit to losses I

Palmer Proctor

That's a question. great

months less But and in than the losses million. you of range is take -- much acquisition it early the XXXX of it preceding X.X% had $XXX Last we've and guess if acquisition you that, we XX annualize of of kind modeled five of on December we when a couple with share take it's years all that. about to year, numbers there's I the back, the different So the in since Chris, the we sort achieved date.

rates. the the when So it guess, you take a more quarter of just longer month, outlook, kind normalized you in or I seeing then thing, that start than

we're I but think sort going in that average, of to or that's number, especially of from this kind the that on first sort quarter of half maybe X.X% to of to probably of five-year what year. a more see normalized, first we a fluctuation, X.X% that sort is three saw

And the losses remember, were the of primary did medium-duty by coming secured trucks. trucks, collateral, out loan have we

And so which we the that of have a took did drove those, we glut when sell. of to valuation those down

little bit strengthening the losses also. So a will there impact of

several you're looking But think X.X% sort terms of So I of of there are kind in run, things. probably X.X%. longer at that to

Christopher Marinac

Great. to was helpful. XXXX, And a That's bank not this really going really securities. back for surrogate

deployment you're from ahead that of way excess that still So cash. of

Jon Edwards

Absolutely.

Palmer Proctor

Absolutely.

Christopher Marinac

next your the of follow-up year on go be? all it My cases? rates of customer in that it some just to average terms should category What kind kind average deposits is four, And as deposit has the is quarters. back over of relationships? to few the in stabilize in base five longer and relationship for maybe of Or Nicole,

Nicole Stokes

the last almost the one-third of analysis. We is It then It's And it's very the very, that interestingly, in pandemic. kind is They between actually of many one-third, since in customers. split to one-third, are prior one-third, last long-time one-third, new one-third of And And one-third, one-third go then an is split. evenly many, the almost kind five one-third, pandemic. the like years other about longer. years. is did kind back

a portfolio, in some I funded. our don't part and average why very deposit deposits. of mean so granular we which and lumpy core it's large, much we definitely is we long why So balance our tenure have is just are have small, so

Palmer Proctor

You some would have [indiscernible] have of XX-year-old that. bank to

five XX-year your that's So as plus, then a about there's of XX that. huge when have less Nicole then one-third it. and said, our you one-third swap of to you another And then than is look at --

So granular. it very is

Christopher Marinac
