**FirstSun Capital Bancorp Reports Fourth Quarter And Full Year 2022 Results**

Fourth Quarter 2022 Highlights:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net income of $24.6 million, $0.96 per diluted share

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Net interest margin of 4.45%

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Return on average assets of 1.38%

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Return on average equity of 12.89%

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Loan growth of 25.6% annualized

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 20.3% fee revenue to total revenue

Denver, Colorado – January 26, 2023 – FirstSun Capital Bancorp ("FirstSun") (OTCQX: FSUN) reported net income of $24.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to net income of $8.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. Earnings per diluted share was $0.96 for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to $0.47 for the fourth quarter of 2021. Earnings for the fourth quarter of 2021 were impacted by $0.9 million of merger costs, net of tax, or $0.05 per diluted share.

Neal Arnold, FirstSun's President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are very pleased with our strong results this quarter. Our net interest margin expanded again this quarter, loan growth was strong and overall credit quality remains stable. Our strong returns this quarter highlight our favorable balance sheet positioning and overall asset sensitivity. While this macro rate environment will most likely subside in the near future amidst changing economic conditions, we believe the strength of the Southwest and Mountain West markets that we operate in and our diversified business model will position us well for success in the future. In 2022, we delivered record earnings, we expanded our Texas presence with the acquisition of the Pioneer Bancshares business and we continued to grow our customer relationships. We are very grateful to our teams for all their hard work and commitment to our customers and the business this year."

**Fourth Quarter 2022 Results**

Net income totaled $24.6 million, or $0.96 per diluted share, during the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $26.5 million, or $1.04 per diluted share, during the prior quarter. The return on average assets was 1.38% in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to 1.52% in the prior quarter, and the return on average equity was 12.89% in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to 14.50% in the prior quarter.

**Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin**

Net interest income totaled $73.3 million during the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of $4.8 million compared to the prior quarter. Our net interest margin increased 19 basis points to 4.45% compared to the prior quarter. Results in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to the prior quarter, were driven by an increase of 58 basis points in yield on earning assets, partially offset by an increase of 39 basis points in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities.

Average loans increased by $0.3 billion in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to the prior quarter. Loan yield increased by 51 basis points to 5.46% in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to the prior quarter, primarily due to the rising interest rate environment and its impact on variable rate loans in the loan portfolio and higher yields on new originations. Average deposits decreased $0.2 billion in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to the prior quarter. Total cost of deposits increased by 32 basis points to 0.65% in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to the prior quarter, primarily due to increased pricing on our deposit products as a result of the rising interest rate environment. Average FHLB borrowings increased $0.3 billion in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to the prior quarter. The cost of FHLB borrowings increased by 190 basis points to 3.80% in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to the prior quarter, primarily due to the rising interest rate environment.

**Asset Quality and Provision for Loan Losses**

The provision for loan losses totaled $5.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of $1.9 million compared to the prior quarter, primarily due to loan growth and macroeconomic factors.

Net charge-offs (recoveries) during the fourth quarter of 2022 were $(0.6) million, or a ratio of net charge-offs (recoveries) to average loans of (0.04)% annualized, compared to net charge-offs of $0.1 million, or a ratio of net

------

charge-offs (recoveries) to average loans of 0.01% annualized, in the prior quarter. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.12% at December 31, 2022, compared to 1.07% at September 30, 2022. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.64% at December 31, 2022, compared to 0.68% at September 30, 2022.

**Noninterest Income**

Noninterest income totaled $18.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2022, a decrease of $6.3 million from the prior quarter. Mortgage banking income decreased $7.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2022, primarily due to an increase in the fair value of the mortgage servicing rights portfolio in the prior quarter as prepayments were forecasted to slow due to the rising interest rate environment, in addition to a decrease in net sale gains and fees from mortgage loan originations as the volume of mortgage loan sales decreased from the prior quarter. Total originations of mortgage loans held-for-sale decreased by $83.7 million, or 30.8%, in the fourth quarter of 2022 from the prior quarter. Other noninterest income increased $1.1 million during the fourth quarter of 2022, primarily due to an increase in loan syndication fees. Noninterest income as a percentage of total revenue totaled 20.3% in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to 26.7% in the prior quarter.

**Noninterest Expense**

Noninterest expense totaled $55.4 million during the fourth quarter of 2022, a decrease of $0.1 million from the prior quarter, primarily due to decreases of $0.5 million in occupancy and equipment, as a result of our adoption of ASU 2016-02, *Leases*, and $0.6 million in other noninterest expenses, partially offset by an increase of $1.1 million in intangible asset amortization. The efficiency ratio for the fourth quarter was 60.33% compared to 59.45% in the prior quarter.

**Tax Rate**

The effective tax rate was 20.4% in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to 22.3% in the prior quarter.

**Loans**

Total loans were $5.9 billion at December 31, 2022, compared to $5.6 billion at September 30, 2022, an increase of $355.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, or 25.6% on an annualized basis, resulting primarily from growth in commercial and industrial and residential real estate balances.

**Deposits**

Average deposits were $5.7 billion for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $5.8 billion for the prior quarter, a decrease of $154.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, or 10.5% on an annualized basis. Deposit trends reflect a decrease in customer average balances as consumer and business liquidity overall has declined slightly. Noninterest-bearing deposit accounts represented 31.6% of total deposits at December 31, 2022 and the loan-to-deposit ratio was 102.5% at December 31, 2022.

**Capital**

Capital ratios remain strong and above "well-capitalized" thresholds. As of December 31, 2022, our common equity tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 9.94%, total risk-based capital ratio was 11.99% and tier 1 leverage ratio was 9.71%. Book value per common share was $31.08 at December 31, 2022, an increase of $0.94 from September 30, 2022. Tangible book value per common share, a non-GAAP financial measure, was $26.69 at December 31, 2022, an increase of $1.02 from September 30, 2022.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Completed merger with Pioneer Bancshares, Inc. ("Pioneer"), acquiring loans of $0.8 billion, total assets of $1.5 billion, and total deposits of $1.2 billion, net of purchase accounting adjustments

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Loan growth, excluding acquired Pioneer loans and PPP loans, 28.4% annualized

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• 27.0% fee revenue to total revenue

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Increase in net interest margin of 87 basis points to 3.87%

Net income totaled $59.2 million, or $2.48 per diluted share, in 2022, compared to $43.2 million, or $2.30 per diluted share, in 2021. Net income included merger costs, net of tax, of $17.0 million in 2022 and $2.6 million in 2021. The return on average assets was 0.88% in 2022, compared to 0.79% in 2021, and the return on average equity was 8.55% in 2022, compared to 8.37% in 2021. The negative impact in 2022 of merger costs, net of tax, to return on average assets was 0.25% and to return on average equity was 2.46%. The negative impact in 2021 of merger costs, net of tax, to return on average assets was 0.05% and to return on average equity was 0.50%.

**Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin**

Net interest income totaled $241.6 million in 2022, an increase of $86.4 million compared to 2021. Our net interest margin increased 87 basis points to 3.87% in 2022, compared to 2021. Results in 2022, compared to the prior year, were driven by an increase of 100 basis points in yield on earning assets, partially offset by an increase of 13 basis points in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities.

Average loans increased by $1.4 billion in 2022, compared to 2021. Loan yield increased by 64 basis points to 4.75% in 2022, compared to 2021, primarily due to the rising interest rate environment and its impact on variable rate loans in the loan portfolio and higher yields on new originations. Average deposits increased $0.5 billion in 2022, compared to 2021. Total cost of deposits increased by 9 basis points to 0.35% in 2022, compared to 2021, primarily due to increased pricing on our deposit products as a result of the rising interest rate environment. Average FHLB borrowings increased $0.2 billion in 2022, compared to 2021. The cost of FHLB borrowings increased by 75 basis points to 2.89% in 2022, compared to 2021, primarily due to the rising interest rate environment.

**Asset Quality and Provision for Loan Losses**

The provision for loan losses totaled $18.1 million in 2022, an increase of $15.1 million compared to the prior year, primarily due to loan growth and macroeconomic factors. During the second quarter of 2022, $2.9 million of the provision for loan losses was related to certain non-impaired acquired loans marked at a premium valuation upon the closing of the Pioneer merger. The premium valuation on certain of the acquired loans was due to higher contractual interest rates compared to market interest rates upon the closing of the Pioneer merger. In total, we realized a net discount valuation on the entire acquired portfolio. Due to the premium on certain of the loans, a provision for loan losses was required; however, it was not due to credit deterioration since closing of the Pioneer merger.

Net charge-offs (recoveries) in 2022 were $(0.3) million, or a ratio of net charge-offs (recoveries) to average loans of (0.01)%, compared to net charge-offs of $3.2 million, or a ratio of net charge-offs (recoveries) to average loans of 0.09%, in 2021. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.12% at December 31, 2022, compared to 1.18% at December 31, 2021. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.64% at December 31, 2022, compared to 0.71% at December 31, 2021.

------

**Noninterest Income**

Noninterest income totaled $89.6 million during 2022, a decrease of $34.7 million from 2021. Mortgage banking income decreased $40.1 million in 2022, primarily due to a decrease in net sale gains and fees from mortgage loan originations as the volume of mortgage loan sales decreased from the prior year. Total originations of mortgage loans held-for-sale decreased by $0.7 billion, or 38.0%, in 2022 from the prior year. Service charges on deposits increased $5.7 million in 2022, due to an increase in average deposits in 2022, as compared to 2021. Noninterest income as a percentage of total revenue totaled 27.0% in 2022, compared to 44.5% in 2021.

**Noninterest Expense**

Noninterest expense totaled $239.1 million in 2022, an increase of $14.5 million from 2021. Merger costs increased $15.7 million in 2022, as compared to 2021, due to the completion of the Pioneer merger in the second quarter of 2022. The decrease in salaries and benefits of $17.6 million in 2022, as compared to 2021, was partially offset by increases of $3.9 million in occupancy and equipment, $2.8 million in amortization of intangible assets, and $9.6 million in other noninterest expenses. The efficiency ratio for 2022 was 72.20% compared to 80.38% in 2021. The negative impact of merger expenses to the efficiency ratio was 5.66% in 2022 and 1.11% in 2021.

**Tax Rate**

The effective tax rate was 20.0% in 2022, compared to 16.7% in 2021.

**Loans**

Total loans were $5.9 billion at December 31, 2022 compared to $4.0 billion at December 31, 2021. Excluding $0.8 billion in acquired Pioneer loans as of April 1, 2022 and PPP loan balances, loans grew $1.1 billion in 2022, or 28.4% from 2021, resulting primarily from growth in commercial and industrial balances. See the <u>["Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations"](#i6ebe1f4872694bf8a22d72838c3cb37a_43)</u> below.

**Deposits**

Average deposits were $5.6 billion for the year ending December 31, 2022, compared to $4.6 billion for the prior year. Average deposits, excluding $1.2 billion in acquired Pioneer deposits as of April 1, 2022, decreased $0.2 billion in 2022, or 4.8% compared to 2021. See the <u>["Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Reconciliations"](#i6ebe1f4872694bf8a22d72838c3cb37a_43)</u> below. Average deposits, excluding impact from acquired Pioneer deposits, reflect a decrease in customer average balances as consumer and business liquidity overall has declined slightly. Noninterest-bearing deposit accounts represented 31.6% of total deposits at December 31, 2022 and the loan-to-deposit ratio was 102.5% at December 31, 2022.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the inability to sustain revenue and earnings growth;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the inability to efficiently manage operating expenses;
