Denver, Colo., October 24, 2019 – First Western Financial, Inc., (“First Western” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: MYFW), today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2019.
Net income available to common shareholders was $2.4 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2019. This compares to $1.4 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2019, and $1.4 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2018, which included $0.3 million of preferred stock dividends. The preferred stock was redeemed in the third quarter of 2018.
“We had another good quarter of business development and client acquisitions, resulting in significant growth in total deposits and assets under management, as well as another quarter of strong contribution from our residential mortgage business,” said Scott C. Wylie, CEO of First Western. “We continue to generate strong loan production, although we saw a significant increase in payoffs in the third quarter, which negatively impacted our total loan growth and net interest income. Our loan pipeline remains healthy, which should result in continued strong loan production. However, we anticipate that elevated payoffs will continue to be a headwind to our total loan growth in the near-term. Over the longer-term, we are optimistic about our
opportunities to drive additional profitable growth as we put our rapid increase in liquid assets to work, continue to attract new clients, gain scale, and realize additional operating leverage.”

Operating Results for the Third Quarter 2019
Revenue
Gross revenue (total income before non-interest expense, less net gains on sale of securities and plus provision for credit losses) was $16.6 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to $16.5 million for the second quarter of 2019. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by a $0.1 million increase in trust and investment management fees.
Relative to the third quarter of 2018, gross revenue increased $2.2 million from $14.4 million. The increase was due to growth in all major categories of gross revenues including net interest income, trust and investment management fees, and net gain on mortgage loans sold resulting from increased mortgage activity and improvement in operational efficiencies within the Mortgage segment.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the third quarter of 2019 was $7.9 million, materially unchanged from the second quarter of 2019, as interest-bearing deposit growth increased on-balance sheet liquidity and outpaced loan growth. On a quarter-over-quarter basis, net interest income was impacted by an $84.5 million increase in average interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by average loan growth of $2.2 million. The cost of
2
interest-bearing deposits increased 2 basis points to 1.63%, while average loan yields increased 2 basis points to 4.55%.
Relative to the third quarter of 2018, net interest income increased 2.0% from $7.8 million. The year-over-year increase in net interest income was due primarily to growth in average loans, partially offset by increases in average interest-bearing liabilities and funding costs.
Net Interest Margin
Net interest margin for the third quarter of 2019 decreased to 2.95% from 3.10% in the second quarter of 2019. The decrease was primarily driven by the on-boarding deposits from new high net worth clients. This drove an increase in MMDA balances and corresponding interest expense, and an unfavorable shift in the mix of earning assets.
Relative to the third quarter of 2018, the net interest margin decreased from 3.29%, primarily due to a 40 basis point increase in the average cost of funds, which was partially offset by a 6 basis point increase in the average yield on interest earning assets.
Non-interest Income
Non-interest income for the third quarter of 2019 was $8.8 million, an increase of 2.4% from $8.6 million in the second quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily due to higher trust and investment management fees and a gain on the sale of securities.
Relative to the third quarter of 2018, non-interest income increased 32.4% from $6.6 million. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net gains on mortgage loans sold as a result of a higher volume of mortgages sold in 2019.
Non-interest Expense
Non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2019 was $13.4 million, a decrease of 8.3% from $14.7 million for the second quarter of 2019. Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2019 included a $1.6 million goodwill impairment charge related to the July 2019 agreement to sell the Company’s Los Angeles-based fixed income team. Excluding the goodwill impairment charge, non-interest expense increased 2.7%. Non-interest expense also increased 10.4% from $12.2 million in the third quarter of 2018. Relative to both prior periods, the higher non-interest expense in the third quarter of 2019 was primarily attributable to an increase in salaries and employee benefits.
The increase in salary and employee benefits was primarily driven by $0.5 million increase in non-operating equity compensation expenses for performance related earnout payouts as a result of the September 2017 acquisition of EMC Holdings, LLC (“EMC”) along with $0.4 million of higher incentive compensation accruals.
As part of the EMC acquisition agreement, the effective date of the performance related payout is August 31 of each year. If mortgage volume and income remain flat compared to the September 30, 2019 results and using the August 31, 2019 MYFW stock price, the Company expects to recognize the remaining equity compensation expense allowable under this agreement, approximately $0.4 million of additional expense, by the end of the first quarter 2020.
3
Non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2019 also included approximately $0.14 million in non-recurring professional services fees related to the pending sale of the Company’s Los Angeles-based fixed income team.
The Company’s efficiency ratio was 80.6% in the third quarter of 2019, compared with 78.2% in the second quarter of 2019 and 83.0% in the third quarter of 2018. The efficiency ratio was negatively impacted during the third quarter 2019 by various acquisition and disposition related expenses. The impact of the above noted items on the third quarter 2019 net income available to shareholders and on earnings per share are as follows:

This table contains certain non-GAAP financial measures that are intended to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company’s operational performance and to enhance investors’ overall understanding of the Company’s core financial performance. |
Income Taxes
The Company recorded income tax expense of $0.8 million for the third quarter of 2019, representing an effective tax rate of 24.5%, compared to 28.5% for the second quarter of 2019. The second quarter expense was higher primarily due to the vesting of Restricted Stock Units which occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2019.
Loan Portfolio
Total gross loans including mortgage loans held for sale were $995.8 million at September 30, 2019, an increase of $20.2 million from the end of the prior quarter, representing an annualized growth of 8.3% and an increase of $119.3 million from September 30, 2018, or 13.6% growth.
Gross loans, excluding mortgage loans held for sale, totaled $926.6 million at September 30, 2019, compared to $939.4 million at June 30, 2019 and $857.3 million at September 30, 2018. The decrease in gross loans from June 30, 2019 was primarily attributable to elevated payoffs and paydowns experienced in the 1-4 family residential and non-owner occupied commercial real estate portfolios. Net loan payoffs in the loan portfolio totaled $71.3 million in the third quarter of 2019, an increase from $44.7 million in the second quarter of 2019.
4
Deposits
Total deposits were $1.1 billion at September 30, 2019, compared to $1.0 billion at June 30, 2019, and $878.6 million at September 30, 2018, which represents a 41.3% annualized increase from the second quarter 2019 and a 26.2% increase from the third quarter 2018. The increase in total deposits from June 30, 2019 was due primarily to an increase in money market accounts related to the addition of new high net worth clients.
Average total deposits for the third quarter of 2019 increased $75.1 million, or 31.0% annualized, from the second quarter of 2019 and increased $180.3 million, or 20.9%, from the third quarter of 2018.
Assets Under Management
Total assets under management increased by $148.2 million during the third quarter to $6.12 billion at September 30, 2019, compared to $5.97 billion at June 30, 2019, and $5.63 billion at September 30, 2018. The increase was primarily attributable to market gains.
Credit Quality
Non-performing assets totaled $14.6 million, or 1.15% of total assets, at September 30, 2019, up from $13.5 million, or 1.13% of total assets, at June 30, 2019 due to an increase in TDR balances.
Consistent with the prior eleven quarters, the Company did not record any charge-offs in the third quarter of 2019.
The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2019, primarily due to an increase in substandard loans.
Capital
At September 30, 2019, First Western (“Consolidated”) and First Western Trust Bank (“Bank”) exceeded the minimum capital levels required by their respective regulators. At September 30, 2019, the Bank was classified as “well capitalized,” as summarized in the following table:

During the third quarter of 2019, the Company repurchased 582 shares of its common stock at an average price of $14.00 under its stock repurchase program, which authorized the repurchase of up to 300,000 shares of its common stock. As of September 30, 2019, the Company had up to 299,418 shares remaining under the current stock repurchase authorization.
Sale of Los Angeles-based Fixed Income Team
On July 19, 2019, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell its Los Angeles-based fixed income portfolio management team (“LA fixed income team”) and certain advisory and sub-advisory arrangements to Lido Advisors, LLC and Oakhurst Advisors, LLC. The sale of the LA fixed income team is now expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2019. As a result of the pending sale, $3.6 million in assets and $0.1 in liabilities were moved to held for sale during the period.
The Company continues to expect the sale to result in an estimated positive impact to tangible common equity of approximately $3.3 million to $3.9 million to be recognized at closing.

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in this news release regarding our expectations and beliefs about our future financial performance and financial condition, as well as trends in our business and markets are “forward-looking statements” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements often include words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “project,” “outlook,” or words of similar meaning, or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” or “may.” The forward looking statements in this news release are based on current information and on assumptions that we make about future events and circumstances that are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that are often difficult to predict and beyond our control. As a result of those risks and uncertainties, our actual financial results in the future could differ, possibly materially, from those expressed in or implied by the forward looking statements contained in this news release and could cause us to make changes to our future plans. Those risks and uncertainties include, without limitation, the risk of geographic concentration in Colorado, Arizona, Wyoming and California; the risk of changes in the economy affecting real estate values and liquidity; the risk in our ability to continue to originate residential real estate loans and sell such loans; risks specific to commercial loans and borrowers; the risk of claims and litigation pertaining to our fiduciary responsibilities; the risk of competition for investment managers and professionals; the risk of fluctuation in the value of our investment securities; the risk of changes in interest rates; and the risk of the adequacy of our allowance for credit losses and the risk in our ability to maintain a strong core deposit base or other low-cost funding sources. Additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties to which our business and future financial performance are subject is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 21, 2019 (“Form 10-K”), and other documents we file with the SEC from time to time. We urge readers of this news release to review the “Risk Factors” section our Form 10-K and any updates to those risk factors set forth in our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K, and our other filings with the SEC. Also, our actual financial results in the future may differ from those currently expected due to additional risks and uncertainties of which we are not currently aware or which we do not currently view as, but in the future may become, material to our business or operating results. Due to these and other possible uncertainties and risks, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this news release, which speak only as of today’s date, or to make predictions based solely on historical financial performance. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law.

First Western Financial, Inc. The First, Western-Based Private Trust Bank Third Quarter 2019 Financial Results |
Safe Harbor 2 This presentation contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These forward-looking statements reflect the current views of First Western Financial, Inc.’s (“First Western”) management with respect to, among other things, future events and First Western’s financial performance. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “predict,” “potential,” “believe,” “will likely result,” “expect,” “continue,” “will,” “anticipate,” “seek,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “future” “forecast,” “goal,” “target,” “would” and “outlook,” or the negative variations of those words or other comparable words of a future or forward-looking nature. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about First Western’s industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond First Western’s control. Accordingly, First Western cautions you that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Although First Western believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, actual results may prove to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to First Western or persons acting on First Western’s behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by this paragraph. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this presentation. First Western undertakes no obligation to publicly update or otherwise revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise (except as required by law). Certain of the information contained herein may be derived from information provided by industry sources. The Company believes that such information is accurate and the sources from which it has been obtained are reliable; however, the Company cannot guaranty the accuracy of such information and has not independently verified such information. This presentation contains certain non-GAAP financial measures intended to supplement, not substitute for, comparable GAAP measures. Reconciliations of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures are provided at the end of this presentation. Numbers in the presentation may not sum due to rounding. |
