St. Louis, Mo. January 24, 2022. Enterprise Financial Services Corp (Nasdaq: EFSC) (the “Company” or “EFSC”) reported net income of $50.8 million for the fourth quarter 2021, an increase of $36.9 million and $21.9 million compared to the linked third quarter (“linked quarter”) and prior year quarter, respectively. Earnings per diluted share (“EPS”) were $1.33 for the fourth quarter 2021, compared to $0.38 and $1.00 for the linked and prior year quarters, respectively.
Jim Lally, EFSC’s President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “The success we had in 2021 is a testament to the strength of our strategically diversified revenue streams. We have structured our lending and deposit niches, geographic footprints, and fee-based sources to drive growth. These efforts resulted in a record fourth quarter in terms of both revenue and earnings, as well as a return on assets of 1.52%. With our variable-rate loan portfolio and strong noninterest-bearing deposit base, we believe we are well-positioned for the future, including for possible interest rate increases. As we move into 2022, we will leverage our guiding principles and continue to focus on creating profitable growth and increased shareholder value.”
The Company closed its acquisition of First Choice on July 21, 2021. The results of operations of First Choice are included in our consolidated results from this date forward and are excluded from preceding periods. Comparisons to the prior year are also impacted by the acquisition of Seacoast Commerce Banc Holdings (“Seacoast”), which closed in the fourth quarter 2020. The acquisition of First Choice in 2021 represents the fourth acquisition the Company has completed in the last five years.

Full-Year Highlights
For 2021, net income was $133.1 million, or $3.86 per diluted share, compared to $74.4 million, or $2.76 per diluted share, in 2020. PPNR 1 for the current year was $207.5 million, compared to $161.5 million in 2020. In addition to organic growth, contributing to the PPNR increase in 2021 was a full year of Seacoast operations and a partial year of First Choice operations.
The Company strengthened its liquidity and capital position in the fourth quarter 2021 through the issuance of $75.0 million of noncumulative perpetual preferred stock and the redemption of $50.0 million of subordinated debentures issued in 2016 at 4.75%. In 2021, the Company returned $86.8 million to shareholders through dividends of $26.2 million, or $0.75 per share, and share repurchases of $60.6 million. In addition, the Company issued approximately 7.8 million shares of its common stock valued at $343.7 million to First Choice shareholders upon consummation of the acquisition.
Credit quality remained strong, with nonperforming assets declining to 0.23% of total assets, from 0.45% at the end of 2020. Net charge-offs were 0.14% of average loans in 2021, compared to 0.03% in 2020. The improvements in credit quality and economic forecasts resulted in the allowance for credit losses declining to 1.61% of total loans at the end of 2021, from 1.89% at the end of 2020. Excluding guaranteed portions of loans, which includes Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans, our coverage ratio was 1.84% and 2.31% at the end of 2021 and 2020, respectively. The provision for credit losses was $13.4 million in 2021, compared to $65.4 million in 2020. Acquisition-related provision expense of $25.4 million and $8.6 million in 2021 and 2020, respectively, was included in the provision for credit losses. This expense, commonly referred to as the “CECL double-count”, is recognized when a loan portfolio is acquired.
Noninterest income increased 24% in 2021, while expenses remained well-controlled with a core efficiency ratio 2 of 51.61%, compared to 50.96% in 2020. The Company commenced the process in 2021 to close five branch locations in California and St. Louis. A lease and fixed asset impairment charge of $3.8 million was recognized, including $0.4 million reported in merger-related expenses. The Company expects to realize annual cost savings of approximately $2.3 million related to these closures.

* Non-taxable income is presented on a tax-equivalent basis using a 25.2% and 24.7% tax rate in 2021 and 2020, respectively. The tax-equivalent adjustments were $1.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021, $1.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021, and $1.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2020.

Net interest income for the fourth quarter 2021 increased $4.8 million to $102.1 million from $97.3 million in the linked quarter, and increased $24.6 million from the prior year period. NIM, on a tax equivalent basis, was 3.32% for the fourth quarter 2021, compared to 3.40% in the linked quarter, and 3.66% in the fourth quarter of 2020. The increase in net interest income from the linked quarter was primarily due to a full quarter of income on acquired First Choice assets, higher income from an expanded investment portfolio and lower interest expense from the redemption of the $50.0 million of subordinated debentures. PPP fee income of $4.9 million, $6.0 million and $10.3 million was included in net interest income for the current, linked and prior year quarters, respectively. The level of PPP income has declined each quarter in 2021 as the portfolio winds down.
NIM decreased 8 basis points from the linked quarter to 3.32% during the current quarter primarily due to a 10 basis point decrease in earning asset yields, offset by a four basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. Average short-term investments, comprised primarily of interest-bearing cash accounts, increased $337.0 million to $1.6 billion for the fourth quarter 2021 and was the primary reason for the decline in earning asset yields. PPP income continued to benefit net interest income and margin in the fourth quarter 2021, but at a reduced level from both the linked and prior year quarters.
The Company has an asset-sensitive balance sheet, with 63% of loans tied to a variable rate index and 40.4% of the deposit portfolio in noninterest-bearing demand accounts. Approximately $3.2 billion of loans at December 31, 2021 had an interest rate floor and 95% of those loans were at the floor rate. The Company has hedged the majority of its variable rate debt and should not recognize a significant increase in interest expense on these borrowings if interest rates increase.

a Amounts reported are as of September 30, 2021 and are separately shown attributable to the FCBP loan portfolio acquired on July 21, 2021, and the Company’s pre-FCBP acquisition loan portfolio.
b $1.2 billion is attributable to the Seacoast loan portfolio acquired on November 12, 2020.

Loans totaled $9.0 billion at December 31, 2021, decreasing $98.9 million compared to the linked quarter, primarily due to a decline in PPP loans of $167.0 million. Excluding PPP loans, loans increased $68.1 million, or 3.1%

annualized, from the linked quarter. A high level of paydowns muted loan originations in the fourth quarter. Year-over-year, loans grew $1.8 billion from $7.2 billion as of December 31, 2020 due to the First Choice acquisition, partially offset by a $426.7 million decline in PPP loans. Excluding PPP loans and the impact of our First Choice acquisition, loans increased $553.6 million, or 8.5%, from the prior year quarter. For the quarter ended December 31, 2021 average line draw utilization was 39.9% compared to 38.2% and 38.1% in the linked and prior year quarters, respectively.

Nonperforming assets decreased $13.5 million to $31.5 million at December 31, 2021 from $45.0 million at September 30, 2021. The decrease was primarily from principal payments and a $3.5 million charge-off on an agricultural loan that went on nonaccrual in a prior period.
The Company recorded a provision benefit of $3.7 million for the fourth quarter 2021, compared to a provision for credit losses of $19.7 million for the linked quarter and $9.5 million for the prior year quarter.

The increase from the linked quarter was primarily due to specialty deposits, which increased $350.7 million. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to the First Choice acquisition and the high level of liquidity in the economy.
Core deposits, defined as total deposits excluding time deposits, were $10.7 billion at December 31, 2021, an increase of $534.9 million from the linked quarter, and an increase of $3.3 billion from the prior year period.

Noninterest Income
The following table presents a comparative summary of the major components of noninterest income for the periods indicated:

| Linked quarter comparison |  | Prior year comparison
| Quarter ended |  | Quarter ended
($ in thousands) | December 31, 2021 |  | September 30, 2021 |  | Increase (decrease) |  | December 31, 2020 |  | Increase (decrease)

Total noninterest income for the fourth quarter 2021 was $22.6 million, an increase of $5.0 million from the linked quarter and an increase of $4.1 million from the prior year quarter. The increase from the linked quarter was primarily due to seasonally strong tax credit activity and fees earned on community development investments. Deposit service
8

charges declined from the linked quarter primarily due to a fee waiver provided to First Choice customers during the core conversion process. Additionally, servicing income (included in miscellaneous income) declined $0.6 million from the linked quarter due to accelerated paydowns.
Noninterest Expenses
Noninterest expense was $63.7 million for the fourth quarter 2021, compared to $76.9 million for the linked quarter, and $51.1 million for the fourth quarter 2020. The decrease from the linked quarter was primarily due to a $15.8 million decrease in merger expenses and branch impairment charges. The increase from the prior year quarter is due to the acquisitions of First Choice and Seacoast, partially offset by swap termination charges of $3.2 million that were recognized in the fourth quarter 2020.
For the fourth quarter 2021, the Company’s efficiency ratio was 51.1% compared to 66.9% and 53.2% for the linked quarter and prior year quarter, respectively. The Company’s core efficiency ratio 2 was 49.2% for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to 51.3% for the linked quarter and 50.9% for the prior year quarter.
2 Core efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure. Refer to discussion and reconciliation of this measure in the accompanying financial tables.
Income Taxes
The Company’s effective tax rate was 21% for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to 24% in the linked quarter and 18% in the prior year quarter. The Company’s blended tax rate increased to 25.2% in 2021 from 24.9%, in 2020 due to its expanded geographic footprint and the related state apportionment.
Capital
The following table presents various EFSC capital ratios:

| Quarter ended
Percent | December 31, 2021 |  | September 30, 2021 |  | June 30, 2021 |  | March 31, 2021 |  | December 31, 2020
Total risk-based capital to risk-weighted assets | 14.7 | % |  | 14.5 | % |  | 14.9 | % |  | 15.1 | % |  | 14.9 | %
Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets | 13.0 | % |  | 12.2 | % |  | 12.3 | % |  | 12.3 | % |  | 12.1 | %
Common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets | 11.3 | % |  | 11.2 | % |  | 11.1 | % |  | 11.0 | % |  | 10.9 | %
Tangible common equity to tangible assets 1 | 8.1 | % |  | 8.4 | % |  | 8.3 | % |  | 8.2 | % |  | 8.4 | %

Total equity was $1.5 billion at December 31, 2021, an increase of $89.5 million from September 30, 2021. The Company issued and sold 3,000,000 depositary shares, each representing 1/40th interest in a share of 5% noncumulative, perpetual preferred stock totaling $72.0 million, net of issuance costs, in the fourth quarter 2021. The Company’s tangible common book value per share was $28.28, up 3.3% and 11.0% from the linked and prior year quarters, respectively.
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company’s accounting and reporting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and the prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, the Company provides other financial measures, such as tangible common equity, PPNR, PPNR ROAA, financial metrics adjusted for PPP impact, core efficiency ratio, and the tangible common equity ratio, in this release that are considered “non-GAAP financial measures.” Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that exclude (or include) amounts that are included in (or excluded from) the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
The Company considers its tangible common equity, PPNR, PPNR ROAA, financial metrics adjusted for PPP impact, core efficiency ratio, and the tangible common equity ratio, collectively “core performance measures,” presented in
9

this earnings release and the included tables as important measures of financial performance, even though they are non-GAAP measures, as they provide supplemental information by which to evaluate the impact of certain non-comparable items, and the Company’s operating performance on an ongoing basis. Core performance measures exclude certain other income and expense items, such as merger-related expenses, facilities charges, and the gain or loss on sale of investment securities, the Company believes to be not indicative of or useful to measure the Company’s operating performance on an ongoing basis. The attached tables contain a reconciliation of these core performance measures to the GAAP measures. The Company believes that the tangible common equity ratio provides useful information to investors about the Company’s capital strength even though it is considered to be a non-GAAP financial measure and is not part of the regulatory capital requirements to which the Company is subject.
The Company believes these non-GAAP measures and ratios, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP measures and ratios, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s performance and capital strength. The Company’s management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to, these non-GAAP measures and ratios in assessing the Company’s operating results and related trends and when forecasting future periods. However, these non-GAAP measures and ratios should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or preferable to, ratios prepared in accordance with GAAP. In the attached tables, the Company has provided a reconciliation of, where applicable, the most comparable GAAP financial measures and ratios to the non-GAAP financial measures and ratios, or a reconciliation of the non-GAAP calculation of the financial measures for the periods indicated.
