Insights
SmartFinancial's report indicates a notable decrease in net income from $13.0 million in Q4 2022 to $6.2 million in Q4 2023, which is a significant year-over-year contraction. However, when we exclude non-recurring expenses, operating earnings show less volatility. The dip in net income could be attributed to several factors, including margin pressures or increased provision for credit losses, which investors should consider when evaluating the company's performance.
Furthermore, the growth in loans and deposits suggests an expanding balance sheet, which can be a positive indicator of the company's ability to attract and retain customers. However, the increase in nonperforming assets, from 0.12% to 0.20% of total assets, warrants attention as it could be an early sign of credit quality issues, potentially impacting future earnings and requiring close monitoring.
The strategic initiatives mentioned, such as operational enhancements and the addition of a Chief Banking Officer, are likely aimed at improving efficiency and governance, which could have long-term benefits for SmartFinancial. The growth in net organic loan and lease, along with deposit growth, suggests that SmartFinancial is successfully expanding its market presence, which is crucial in a competitive banking environment.
Additionally, the election of the CEO to the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta's Board of Directors may provide strategic advantages and insights into monetary policy trends, potentially benefiting SmartFinancial's future decision-making processes.
The stabilization of the net interest margin at 2.86% reflects management's ability to navigate the interest rate environment effectively, which is particularly relevant in the context of recent rate hikes by the Federal Reserve. The modest increase in net interest margin, coupled with controlled expense growth, suggests that SmartFinancial is managing its cost of funds and pricing of assets in a manner that preserves profitability.
However, the broader economic outlook, including potential shifts in monetary policy and economic growth, will continue to play a critical role in the bank's interest income and overall financial health. Stakeholders should consider these macroeconomic factors when assessing the company's future performance.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Statements included in this earnings release include measures not recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and therefore are considered non-GAAP financial measures and should be read along with the accompanying tables, which provide a reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures. SmartFinancial management uses several Non-GAAP financial measures, including: (i) operating earnings, (ii) operating return on average assets, (iii) operating pre-provision net revenue return on average assets, (iv) operating return on average shareholders' equity, (v) return on average tangible common equity, (vi) operating return on average tangible common equity, (vii) operating efficiency ratio, (viii) operating noninterest income, (ix) operating pre-provision net revenue earnings, (x) operating noninterest expense, (xi) tangible common equity, (xii) average tangible common equity, (xiii) tangible book value per common share, (xiv) tangible assets; and ratios derived therefrom, in its analysis of the company's performance. Operating earnings excludes the following from net income: securities gains and losses and merger related and restructuring expenses. Operating return on average assets is the annualized operating earnings (Non-GAAP) divided by average assets. Operating pre-provision net revenue return on average assets is the annualized operating pre-provision net revenue income earnings (Non-GAAP) by average assets. Operating return on average shareholders' equity is the annualized operating earnings (Non-GAAP) divided by average equity. Return on average tangible common equity is the annualized net income divided by average tangible common equity (Non-GAAP). Operating return on average tangible common equity is the annualized operating earnings (Non-GAAP) divided by average tangible common equity (Non-GAAP). The operating efficiency ratio includes an adjustment for taxable equivalent yields and excludes securities gains and losses and merger related and restructuring expenses from the efficiency ratio. Operating noninterest income excludes the following from noninterest income: securities gains and losses. Operating pre-provision net revenue earnings is net interest income plus operating noninterest income (Non-GAAP) less operating noninterest expense (Non-GAAP). Operating noninterest expense excludes the following from noninterest expense: prior year adjustments to salaries, merger related and restructuring expenses and certain franchise tax true-up expenses. Tangible common equity (Non-GAAP) and average tangible common equity (Non-GAAP) excludes goodwill and other intangible assets from shareholders' equity and average shareholders' equity, respectively. Tangible book value per common share (Non-GAAP) is tangible common equity (Non-GAAP) divided by common shares outstanding. Tangible assets (Non-GAAP) excludes goodwill and other intangibles from total assets. Management believes that Non-GAAP financial measures provide additional useful information that allows investors to evaluate the ongoing performance of the company and provide meaningful comparisons to its peers. Management believes these Non-GAAP financial measures also enhance investors' ability to compare period-to-period financial results and allow investors and company management to view our operating results excluding the impact of items that are not reflective of the underlying operating performance. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of performance or financial condition as promulgated under GAAP, and investors should consider SmartFinancial's performance and financial condition as reported under GAAP and all other relevant information when assessing the performance or financial condition of the company. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the results or financial condition as reported under GAAP.
