Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2020
Net Interest Income
For the three months ended September 30, 2020, net interest income before provision for credit losses was $65.9 million and net interest margin was 3.32% compared to $65.8 million and 3.31%, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Net interest margin increased 1 basis point from the three months ended June 30, 2020 primarily due to decreases in the average rates paid on interest-bearing demand and savings deposits and certificate and other time deposits which is slightly offset by decreases in the average yields earned on loans the three months ended September 30, 2020. As a result, the average cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased 17 basis points to 0.67% for the three months ended September 30, 2020 from 0.84% for the three months ended June 30, 2020.
Net interest income before provision for credit losses decreased by $5.0 million from $70.9 million to $65.9 million and net interest margin decreased by 58 basis points from 3.90% to 3.32% for the three months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the same period in 2019. The decrease in net interest income before provision for credit losses was primarily due to a $17.1 million decrease in interest income on loans, partially offset by $8.3 million and $5.3 million decrease in interest expenses on transaction and savings deposits and certificates and other time deposits, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019. Net interest margin decreased 58 basis points from the three months ended September 30, 2019 primarily due to a decrease in yields earned on loan balances, partially offset by decreases in the average rate paid on interest-bearing demand and savings deposits and certificates and other time deposits for the three months ended September 30, 2020. As a result, the average cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased 112 basis points to 0.67% for the three months ended September 30, 2020 from 1.79% for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was $9.8 million, a decrease of $11.5 million, or 54.0%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease was primarily due to a $8.7 million decrease in government guaranteed loan income, net. In the second and third quarter of 2020, the Company earned fee income of 5% on PPP loans under $350 thousand, 3% on PPP loans between $350 thousand and $2 million and 1% on PPP loans greater than $2 million totaling fee income of $295 thousand in the third quarter of 2020 compared to $12.5 million in the second quarter of 2020. The recognized fee income on PPP loans was partially offset by a valuation allowance on the PPP loans of $2.0 million as the Company elected to carry these loans at fair value.
Compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019, noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2020 increased by $1.4 million, or 16.2%. The increase was primarily due to a $1.3 million increase in government guaranteed loan income, net, as a result of the fee income earned on PPP loans.

Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense was $36.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $40.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020, a decrease of $3.7 million, or 9.1%. The decrease was primarily driven by a $1.6 million decrease in pre-payment fees on Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances paid in the second quarter of 2020 with no corresponding pre-payment fees during the three months ended September 30, 2020. The decrease was also driven by a $1.2 million decrease in COVID related expenses primarily related to Community Reinvestment Act donations, lender incentives, employee overtime and cleaning services that were paid in the second quarter of 2020 with nominal COVID expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2020.
Compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019, noninterest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2020 increased by $1.8 million, or 5.1%. The increase was primarily driven by a $3.0 million increase in salaries and employee benefits offset by a $1.0 million decrease in merger and acquisition expenses.

Financial Condition
Total loans were $6.8 billion at September 30, 2020, an increase of $157.7 million, or 9.6% annualized, compared to June 30, 2020. The increase was the result of the continued execution and success of our loan growth strategy.
Total deposits were $6.2 billion at September 30, 2020, an increase of $97.0 million, or 6.3% annualized, compared to June 30, 2020. The increase was primarily the result of increases of $107.8 million and $13.0 million in interest-bearing transaction and savings deposits and noninterest-bearing demand deposits, respectively, partially offset by a decrease of $23.8 million in certificates and other time deposits.

Asset Quality
Nonperforming assets totaled $96.4 million, or 1.11% of total assets at September 30, 2020, compared to $39.4 million, or 0.50% of total assets, at December 31, 2019. The Company had a net charge-off of $2.5 million for the quarter, which is primarily the result of one relationship charge-off that was fully reserved against in the second quarter of 2020.
The Company recorded a provision for credit losses for the three months ended September 30, 2020 of $8.7 million, compared to $16.2 million and $9.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, respectively. The decrease in the recorded provision for credit losses for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2020, was primarily attributable to improvement in the Texas economic forecasts used in the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) model in the third quarter of 2020 to reflect the expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic as of September 30, 2020, as compared to our Texas economic forecasts and expected impact of the COVID-19 pandemic as of June 30, 2020. Changes to the Texas economic forecasts were offset by a $13.2 million increase in specific reserves on certain lending relationships that moved onto nonaccrual status during the three months ended September 30, 2020. In the third quarter of 2020, we also recorded a $1.4 million provision for unfunded commitments which was attributable to higher unfunded balances compared to a $2.8 million provision for unfunded commitments recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Allowance for credit losses as a percentage of LHI, excluding mortgage warehouse and PPP loans, was 2.10%, 2.01% and 0.46% of total loans at September 30, 2020, June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, respectively.

On October 27, 2020, Veritex’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.17 per share on its outstanding shares of common stock. The dividend will be paid on or after November 19, 2020 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 5, 2020.

We identify certain financial measures discussed in this earnings release as being “non-GAAP financial measures.” In accordance with SEC rules, we classify a financial measure as being a non-GAAP financial measure if that financial measure excludes or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding or including amounts, that are included or excluded, as the case may be, in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as in effect from time to time in the United States (“GAAP”), in our statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows. Non-GAAP financial measures do not include operating and other statistical measures or ratios calculated using exclusively either one or both of (i) financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and (ii) operating measures or other measures that are not non-GAAP financial measures.

The non-GAAP financial measures that we present in this earnings release should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which we calculate the non-GAAP financial measures that we present in this earnings release may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names. You should understand how such other financial institutions calculate their financial measures that appear to be similar or have similar names to the non-GAAP financial measures we have discussed in this earnings release when comparing such non-GAAP financial measures.

Tangible Book Value Per Common Share. Tangible book value is a non-GAAP measure generally used by financial analysts and investment bankers to evaluate financial institutions. We calculate: (a) tangible common equity as total stockholders’ equity less goodwill and core deposit intangibles, net of accumulated amortization; and (b) tangible book value per common share as tangible common equity (as described in clause (a)) divided by number of common shares outstanding. For tangible book value per common share, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is book value per common share.

We believe that this measure is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in changes from period to period in book value per common share exclusive of changes in core deposit intangibles. Goodwill and other intangible assets have the effect of increasing total book value while not increasing our tangible book value.

The following table reconciles, as of the dates set forth below, total stockholders’ equity to tangible common equity and presents our tangible book value per common share compared with our book value per common share:

Tangible Common Equity to Tangible Assets. Tangible common equity to tangible assets is a non-GAAP measure generally used by financial analysts and investment bankers to evaluate financial institutions. We calculate: (a) tangible common equity as total stockholders’ equity, less goodwill and core deposit intangibles, net of accumulated amortization; (b) tangible assets as total assets less goodwill and core deposit intangibles, net of accumulated amortization; and (c) tangible common equity to tangible assets as tangible common equity (as described in clause (a)) divided by tangible assets (as described in clause (b)). For tangible common equity to tangible assets, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is total stockholders’ equity to total assets.

We believe that this measure is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in the relative changes from period to period in common equity and total assets, in each case, exclusive of changes in core deposit intangibles. Goodwill and other intangible assets have the effect of increasing both total stockholders’ equity and assets while not increasing our tangible common equity or tangible assets.

Return on Average Tangible Common Equity. Return on average tangible common equity is a non-GAAP measure generally used by financial analysts and investment bankers to evaluate financial institutions. We calculate: (a) net income available for common stockholders adjusted for amortization of core deposit intangibles (which we refer to as “return”) as net income, plus amortization of core deposit intangibles, less tax benefit at the statutory rate; (b) average tangible common equity as total average stockholders’ equity less average goodwill and average core deposit intangibles, net of accumulated amortization; and (c) return (as described in clause (a)) divided by average tangible common equity (as described in clause (b)). For return on average tangible common equity, the most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is return on average equity.

We believe that this measure is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in the return on common equity, exclusive of the impact of core deposit intangibles. Goodwill and core deposit intangibles have the effect of increasing total stockholders’ equity while not increasing our tangible common equity. This measure is particularly relevant to acquisitive institutions that may have higher balances in goodwill and core deposit intangibles than non-acquisitive institutions.

The following table reconciles, as of the dates set forth below, average tangible common equity to average common equity and net income available for common stockholders adjusted for amortization of core deposit intangibles, net of taxes to net income and presents our return on average tangible common equity:

Operating Earnings, Pre-tax, Pre-provision Operating Earnings and performance metrics calculated using Operating Earnings and Pre-tax, Pre-provision Operating Earnings, including Diluted Operating Earnings per Share, Operating Return on Average Assets, Pre-tax, Pre-Provision Operating Return on Average Assets, Operating Return on Average Tangible Common Equity and Operating Efficiency Ratio. Operating earnings, pre-tax, pre-provision operating earnings and the performance metrics calculated using these metrics, listed below, are non-GAAP measures used by management to evaluate the Company’s financial performance. We calculate (a) operating earnings as net income plus loss (gain) on sale of securities, net, plus loss (gain) on sale of disposed branch assets, plus FHLB pre-payment fees, plus merger and acquisition expenses, less tax impact of adjustments, plus other merger and acquisition tax items, plus re-measurement of deferred tax assets as a result of the reduction in the corporate income tax rate under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. We calculate (b) diluted operating earnings per share as operating earnings as described in clause (a) divided by weighted average diluted shares outstanding. We calculate (c) pre-tax, pre-provision operating earnings as operating earnings as described in clause (a) plus provision for income taxes, plus provision for loan losses. We calculate (d) pre-tax, pre-provision operating return on average assets as pre-tax, pre-provision operating earnings as described in clause (a) divided by average total assets. We calculate (e) operating return on average assets as operating earnings as described in clause (a) divided by average total assets. We calculate (f) operating return on average tangible common equity as operating earnings as described in clause (a), adjusted for the amortization of intangibles and tax benefit at the statutory rate, divided by total average tangible common equity (average stockholders’ equity less average goodwill and average core deposit intangibles, net of accumulated amortization). We calculate (g) operating efficiency ratio as non interest expense plus adjustments to operating non interest expense divided by (i) non interest income plus adjustments to operating non interest income plus (ii) net interest income.

We believe that these measures and the operating metrics calculated utilizing these measures are important to management and many investors in the marketplace who are interested in understanding the ongoing operating performance of the Company and provide meaningful comparisons to its peers.

The following tables reconcile, as of the dates set forth below, operating net income and pre-tax, pre-provision operating earnings and related metrics:

2 Other M&A tax items of $829 thousand and $406 thousand recorded during the three months ended December 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019, respectively, relate to permanent tax expense recognized by the Company as a result of deduction limitations on compensation paid to covered employees in excess of the 162(m) limitation directly due to change-in-control payments made to covered employees in connection with the Green acquisition.
3 Discrete tax adjustments of $965 thousand were recorded during the fourth quarter of 2019 primarily due to the Company recording a net tax benefit of $1.6 million as a result of the Company settling an audit with the IRS. The Company released an uncertain tax position reserve that was assumed in the Green acquisition resulting in a $2.2 million tax benefit, offset by tax expense totaling $598 thousand that were recorded due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act rate change on deferred tax assets resulting from the IRS audit settlement. The net IRS settlement was offset by various discrete, non-recurring tax expenses totaling $0.6 million. A discrete tax benefit of $1,799 was recorded in the second quarter of 2020 as a result of the Company amending a prior year Green tax return to carry
16


back a net operating loss ("NOL") incurred by Green on January 1, 2019. The Company was allowed to carry back this NOL as result of a provision in the CARES Act which permits NOLs generated in tax years 2018, 2019 or 2020 to be carried back five years.

Safe Harbor Forward-looking statements This presentation contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are based on various facts and derived utilizing assumptions, current expectations, estimates and projections and are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements relating to the expected payment date of Veritex Holdings, Inc.’s (“Veritex”) quarterly cash dividend, impact of certain changes in Veritex’s accounting policies, standards and interpretations, the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and actions taken in response thereto, Veritex’s future financial performance, business and growth strategy, projected plans and objectives, as well as other projections based on macroeconomic and industry trends, which are inherently unreliable due to the multiple factors that impact broader economic and industry trends, and any such variations may be material. Statements preceded by, followed by or that otherwise include the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “projects,” “estimates,” “plans” and similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “should,” “would,” “may” and “could” are generally forward-looking in nature and not historical facts, although not all forward-looking statements include the foregoing words. We refer you to the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of Veritex’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and any updates to those risk factors set forth in Veritex’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), which are available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if Veritex’s underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from what Veritex anticipates. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Veritex does not undertake any obligation, and specifically declines any obligation, to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law. All forward-looking statements, expressed or implied, included in this presentation are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. This cautionary statement should also be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that Veritex or persons acting on Veritex’s behalf may issue. This presentation also includes industry and trade association data, forecasts and information that Veritex has prepared based, in part, upon data, forecasts and information obtained from independent trade associations, industry publications and surveys, government agencies and other information publicly available to Veritex, which information may be specific to particular markets or geographic locations. Some data is also based on Veritex's good faith estimates, which are derived from management's knowledge of the industry and independent sources. Industry publications, surveys and forecasts generally state that the information contained therein has been obtained from sources believed to be reliable. Although Veritex believes these sources are reliable, Veritex has not independently verified the information contained therein. While Veritex is not aware of any misstatements regarding the industry data presented in this presentation, Veritex's estimates involve risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors. Similarly, Veritex believes that its internal research is reliable, even though such research has not been verified by independent sources. 2


 
Non-GAAP Financial Measures Veritex reports its results in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). However, management believes that certain supplemental non-GAAP financial measures used in managing its business provide meaningful information to investors about underlying trends in its business. Management uses these non-GAAP measures to assess the Company’s operating performance and believes that these non-GAAP measures provide information that is important to investors and that is useful in understanding Veritex’s results of operations. However, non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, Veritex’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
