so on point I think to So again, with be some and a pressure we has furious And And X% of your coming do kind do you know cut? rate. the communication. of do that how was think how and know, how other question I can fast

I've think this about maybe weekly meetings. calls good that pricing on have before have we communication, we and some I talked very

the we really finger pulse of the on of in can going So keep on market. what's our kind

we see our leaders also do there talk are about have can about if we seeing. there competitors, we any exceptions And that conversations pricing

bit and working cut through just And we so very if far, market little to that with a be well. haven't that we open get enough, seems we've communication can leaders, cut too our

H. Proctor

But for things. the of know, touch you as on David, the biggest human thing big are us, we side

point the and when where folks go money and have of option quietly you commercial retail you in them to the increase think I want side, the at out. bank even to doing of have rate look or that their our job pull front just where to always that's away So customers an staying exceptional not the

from and see your it a real on to we that staying one see And Nicole's swings really starting kudos close. doing a kind monitor feel front clients out regular other. to on or any I it basis. our point, what's to which culture DNA. relationship, just regular if kept of And is in us the bank of there way always base, that for to the But team to key customer staying is So we're the the top basis high-touch on of of has community think part been

David Feaster

I just That's vehicle. operating seeing you touch to nice And a finance nice a I'm It larger, really that want has that finance that's pretty been in great. And I on kind curious, premium in just Yes. mean, for there? scale seems you of Obviously, about profitability as just growth a second. how leverage. I'm broadly? segment vertical been do curious you think what are pipeline the premium and solid.

H. Proctor

when Yes. but at spots From That's you there in in of are doing what bright one just they're different anybody verticals us, are space. for knows space. out that probably the a there, look credit not standpoint, the the problems no that

yields are do that. know. The it's well as on execution right, good you pretty risk If you more it

probably we're can job focused finance a better from that have. additional these clients we some we which think on I garnering heavily deposits premium do on of

we're focused on that. So heavily

in business a line stable provider. has think I terms for But one look that good us different you in that is and that of markets been pretty been verticals, when at a of the volatility

about that So we to and feel particular grow maintain very the sector. bullish opportunity

David Feaster

horse But, headwind, you're on and on here. of kind given originations. last just commentary about side,and healthy then at pretty And Obviously, or putting tailwinds then margin helpful. it, to on seems looking we new it margin. the like a a That's front. rate loans repricing dead where on some just floating but you. there's talked appreciate be want the for you're I me. the I the that all could guidance one side be funding the new actually the don't Got

what about seeing I some Because thinking expand? year, seeing we fair a am next Or in those I characterization? at I repricing we margin margin could the that think guess, feels it just mean, point dynamics, maybe wrong? you of middle actually given do like Is start expand. it could of start

H. Proctor

with and of hope are Well, think lot we our when at you're we're look think peers, I the peers. to is where to already high about I thing a you're margin lot a a starting relative at And right. where you of to your point relative our

that I that we cake. if on where would just be So icing are stay tell incrementally can would you additional we garner margin, the

landing hopeful cost we to for on deposits -- are that of because to we our out tailwinds down. it be like certainly see I'm additional company rates your there a are and But your for and the on point improving then opportunities growth, the some loans ours soft development if a have we point, coming the should additional going

So conceptually, plays a you're that hope right, and I starting from way. we're out But strength. that everything of position
