Alexandria, VA – Burke & Herbert Financial Services Corp. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: BHRB) reported financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2023. In addition, at its meeting on July 27, 2023, the board of directors declared a $0.53 per share regular cash dividend to be paid on September 1, 2023, to shareholders of record as of the close of business August 15, 2023.

“Despite the headwinds facing the industry and the resulting pressure on bank earnings, our focus remains on executing our strategic priorities. This quarter we increased loans, maintained a strong liquidity position, and continued to make investments in our businesses designed to deliver increased shareholder value over the long-term.”

Total revenue (non-GAAP) for the three months ended June 30, 2023, was $28.4 million or 6% lower than the three months ended June 30, 2022, and included $25.3 million in interest and fees on loans and $10.8 million in investment security income, which was a 45% increase and a 20% increase, respectively, over the prior year three months ended June 30, 2022. Overall, interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2023, was $37.1 million or 40% higher than the three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in interest income for the Company’s loans was due to increased loan growth and higher rates, and the interest income increase in investment securities was due to higher rates. Loans, net of allowance for credit losses, ended the quarter at $2.0 billion or 14% higher than June 30, 2022, while the investment portfolio fair value ended the quarter at $1.3 billion or 17% lower than the prior year quarter.

The increase in interest income was offset by an increase in interest expense, which was $13.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, or $12.4 million higher than the prior year period. The rapidly rising rate environment resulted in an increase in the Company’s cost of funds that outpaced the resulting benefit of higher rates on assets. The Company’s deposit and borrowing interest expense was $10.0 million and $3.3 million or $9.7 million and $2.8 million higher, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Total deposits ended the quarter at $3.0 billion or 2% higher than the same period in 2022.

Non-GAAP financial measures referenced in this release are used by management to measure performance in operating the business that management believes enhances investors’ ability to better understand the underlying business performance and trends related to core business activities. Reconciliations of non-GAAP operating measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the non-GAAP reconciliation tables in this release.

Non-interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2023, increased $0.1 million from the same period last year to $4.6 million. The increase was primarily due to higher other non-interest income revenue. Within other non-interest income, the Company received an increase in dividend income from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and also included increased fee income from customer swap activity when compared to the prior year quarter ended June 30, 2022.

For the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $0.2 million compared to a recapture of credit losses of $2.5 million in the prior year quarter. Total revenue (non-GAAP) after provision for credit losses was $28.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, which was a decrease of 14% compared to the same period last year due to the recapture of credit losses recorded in the prior year quarter.

Non-interest expense increased by $1.0 million, or 5%, for the three months ended June 30, 2023, from the prior year three months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was driven by higher personnel related expenses, primarily benefits and pension, due to increased healthcare costs and general macro-economic conditions. The Company also incurred expenses during the second quarter of 2023 related to the efforts of listing our common stock on the Nasdaq stock exchange and the filing of a Form 10 Registration Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to register our common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Total revenue (non-GAAP) for the six months ended June 30, 2023, was $57.4 million or 1% lower than the six months ended June 30, 2022, and included $48.1 million in interest and fees on loans and $22.1 million in investment security income, which was a 42% increase and a 31% increase, respectively, over the prior year six months ended June 30, 2022. Overall, interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2023, was $71.4 million or 41% higher than the six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase in interest income for the Company’s loans was due to increased loan growth and higher rates, and the interest income increase on investment securities was due to higher rates.

The increase in interest income was offset by an increase in interest expense, which was $22.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, or $21.2 million higher than the prior year period. The rapidly rising rate environment resulted in an increase in the Company’s cost of funds that outpaced the resulting benefit of higher rates on assets. The Company’s deposit and borrowing interest expense was $15.4 million and $7.4 million or $14.7 million and $6.5 million higher, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2023, than for the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Non-interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2023, increased $0.2 million from the same period last year to $8.8 million. The increase was primarily due to higher other non-interest income revenue. Within other non-interest income, the Company received an increase in dividend income from the FHLB and also included increased fee income from customer swap activity when compared to the prior year period ended June 30, 2022.

For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $0.7 million compared to a recapture of credit losses of $5.2 million in the prior year period. Total revenue (non-GAAP) after provision for credit losses was $56.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023, which was a decrease of 10% compared to the same period last year.

Non-interest expense increased by $2.2 million, or 6%, for the six months ended June 30, 2023, from the prior year six months ended June 30, 2022. The increase was driven by higher personnel related expenses, primarily benefits and pension, due to increased healthcare costs and general macro-economic conditions. The Company also incurred expenses during 2023 related to the efforts of listing our common stock on the Nasdaq stock exchange and the filing of a Form 10 Registration Statement with the SEC to register our common stock under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Total revenue is a non-GAAP measure and is derived from total interest income less total interest expense plus total non-interest income. We believe that total revenue is a useful tool to determine how the Company is managing its business and how stable our revenue sources are from period to period.

Pretax, pre-provision earnings (non-GAAP)	$	7,069	$	8,623	$	15,664	$	10,989	$	9,759

Pretax pre-provision earnings is a non-GAAP measure and is based on adjusting income before income taxes and to exclude provision for (recapture of) credit losses. We believe that pretax, pre-provision earnings is a useful tool to help evaluate the ability to provide for credit costs through operations and provides an additional basis to compare results between periods by isolating the impact of provision for (recapture of) credit losses, which can vary significantly between periods.

The interest income earned on certain earning assets is completely or partially exempt from federal income tax. As such, these tax-exempt instruments typically yield lower returns than taxable investments. To provide more meaningful comparisons of net interest income, we use net interest income on a fully

taxable-equivalent (FTE) basis by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable investments. FTE net interest income is calculated by adding the tax benefit on certain financial interest earning assets, whose interest is tax-exempt, to total interest income then subtracting total interest expense. Management believes FTE net interest income is a standard practice in the banking industry, and when net interest income is adjusted on an FTE basis, yields on taxable, nontaxable, and partially taxable assets are comparable; however, the adjustment to an FTE basis has no impact on net income and this adjustment is not permitted under GAAP. FTE net interest income is only used for calculating FTE net interest margin, which is calculated by annualizing FTE net interest income and then dividing by the average earning assets. The tax-rate used for this adjustment is 21%. Net interest income shown elsewhere in this presentation is GAAP net interest income.
