LEAWOOD, Kan., July 18, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CrossFirst Bankshares, Inc. (Nasdaq: CFB), the bank holding company for
CrossFirst Bank, today reported operating results for the second quarter of 2022, with

"In addition to our announcement about our planned acquisition of Central, we produced a very strong quarter
 
of organic loan growth. We
also invested in talent to support our continued success by filling key roles with both internal promotions and adding high-caliber
 
talent
from the outside,” said CrossFirst’s CEO and President, Mike Maddox.
 
“We remain highly focused on credit quality, and we are
committed to managing through a challenging economy while delivering for our clients and
 
stockholders.”
2022 Second Quarter Highlights:
Announced on June 13, 2022, an agreement under which CrossFirst Bank will acquire Central

Income from Operations
Net Interest Income
Interest income was $52.8 million for the second quarter of 2022,
 
an increase of 9% from the second quarter of 2021 and an increase of
11% from the previous quarter due to higher average loans outstanding and higher interest rates. Average earning assets totaled $5.4 billion
for the second quarter of 2022, a decrease of $92 million or 2% from the same quarter in
 
2021. This decline in average earning assets was
largely driven by a decrease of $210 million in average interest-bearing deposits in other banks, the impact of which was outweighed by
the increase of $29 million in average loans and the associated loan yield increase.
Interest expense for the second quarter of 2022 was $6.1 million, slightly lower than the second quarter of 2021 and 32% higher
 
than the
previous quarter.
 
Average interest-bearing deposits decreased to $3.4 billion in the second quarter of 2022, a 13% decrease from the same
prior year period. The cost of funds increased from the previous quarter to 0.50%, compared to 0.39% for the
 
first quarter of 2022, driven
by the higher interest rate environment.
Net interest income totaled $46.7 million for the second quarter of 2022, which
 
was 8% higher than the first quarter of 2022, and 10%
higher than the second quarter of 2021. Tax-equivalent net interest margin increased to 3.52% in the current quarter from 3.29%
 
in the
previous quarter and 3.14% in the second quarter of 2021. The tax-equivalent adjustment, which
 
accounts for income taxes saved on the
interest earned on non-taxable securities and loans, was $0.8 million for the second
 
quarter of 2022.
 
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income decreased $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2022 or 28% compared
 
to the same quarter of 2021 and decreased
$0.7 million compared to the first quarter of 2022. The decrease in non-interest income compared
 
to the previous quarter was due to a $1.1
million decrease in credit card fees and $0.1 million decrease in swap fee
 
income, partly offset by a $0.3 million increase in letter of credit
fees and $0.1 million increase in service charge income. The decrease in non-interest income compared
 
to the same quarter of 2021, was
primarily due to $1.8 million in income from bank-owned life insurance proceeds received last year.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2022 was $29.2 million, which increased 13% compared
 
to the second quarter of 2021 and
increased 6% from the first quarter of 2022. Salaries and benefit costs were lower
 
in the current quarter by $0.8 million compared to the
prior quarter. Furthermore, professional fees increased $0.3 million and data
 
processing expenses increased $0.3 million, partly offset by a
slight decrease in software and communication expenses. Compared to the same quarter
 
in the prior year, salaries and benefit costs were
$1.4 million higher mainly due to increased hiring for market expansion
 
and increased incentive expenses. Additionally, software and
communication expenses increased $0.2 million, and data processing expenses
 
increased $0.4 million, offset by a $0.7 million decrease in
foreclosed assets. The other non-interest expense increase for the second quarter of 2022 was primarily
 
due to increases in travel and
meeting expenses and employee separation expense of $1.1 million.
CrossFirst’s effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2022 was 21%, as compared
 
to 17% for the second quarter of 2021 and 20% in the
first quarter of 2022. The 4% effective tax rate increase compared to the same quarter in the prior year was primarily due to the $1.8
million in income from bank-owned life insurance proceeds received last year, which was not subject to
 
tax. For both comparable periods,
the Company continued to benefit from its tax-exempt municipal bond portfolio and bank-owned life insurance. The tax-exempt benefit
diminishes as the Company’s ratio of taxable income to tax-exempt income increases.

Balance Sheet Performance & Analysis
During the second quarter of 2022, total assets increased by $190 million or 3% compared
 
to March 31, 2022, and increased $397 million
or 7% compared to June 30, 2021. Total assets increased on a linked quarter basis primarily due
 
to a $179 million increase in loans.
 
The
year-over-year increase was due to increases in loans of $310
 
million and cash and cash equivalents of $57 million. Non-interest-bearing
deposits
 
increased $53 million compared to March 31, 2022, and increased $345 million from
 
June 30, 2021. During the second quarter of
2022
, available-for-sale investment securities decreased $27 million to $696 million compared to
 
March 31, 2022 primarily due to
unrealized losses from interest rate increases.
 
The securities yields increased 7 basis points to a tax equivalent yield of 3.07% for the
second quarter of 2022 compared to the prior quarter.
Loan Results
During the second quarter of 2022, the Company
 
produced an increase in average loans of $105 million compared to the first quarter of
2022, and an increase of $29 million or 1% compared to the second
 
quarter of 2021. The linked quarter increase in average loans was
primarily a result of growth in the commercial and commercial real estate portfoli
 
os. Net of PPP loans, average loans grew 3% compared
to the quarter ended March 31, 2022. Loan yields increased 28 basis points to 4.28% during the second quarter of 2022 and increased
 
29
basis points compared to the same prior year quarter.

quarter was driven by decreases in
transaction deposits and time deposits.

the Company had an increase of 11 basis
points in the overall cost of deposits during the second quarter of 2022, and the cost of interest-bearing depo

Asset Quality Position
Non-performing assets decreased to $30.8 million due to a $5.4 million decrease in non-accrual
 
loans. The decline is attributable to
decreases in non-accrual commercial and industrial and energy loans. The non-performing assets to total assets ratio decreased
 
from 1.09%
at June 30, 2021 to 0.54% at June 30, 2022. Classified loans increased slightly during
 
the second quarter due to some grade changes in the
commercial and industrial portfolio, but remained in an acceptable range at 12.1% of
 
total capital plus the allowance for credit losses.
 
The allowance for credit losses was $56 million or 1.23% of outstanding loans and 202%
 
of non-accruing loans at June 30, 2022. The
combined allowance for credit losses and accrual for off-balance sheet credit
 
risk from unfunded commitments (“RUC”) was $61 million
or 1.35% of outstanding loans and 221% of non-accruing loans at June 30, 2022.
 
The allowance for credit losses to total loans decreased to 1.23% at June 30, 2022
 
from 1.27% at March 31, 2022. The improvements in
credit metrics compared to June 30, 2021 were primarily driven by
 
upgrades in COVID-19 impacted segments and the Energy portfolio.
Net charge-offs were $1.1 million for the second quarter of 2022 and were consistent with the prior quarter. The charge-offs for the current
quarter were primarily related to commercial and industrial and energy credits.

Capital Position
At June 30, 2022, stockholders' equity totaled $608 million, or $12.27 per share, compared to $668 million,
 
or $13.23 per share, at
December 31, 2021. During the second quarter of 2022, CrossFirst continued its share repurchase
 
program by purchasing 237,993 shares
of common stock outstanding. In addition, accumulated other comprehensive income
 
(loss) declined by $71 million between December

Cautionary Notice about Forward-Looking Statements
The financial results in this press release reflect preliminary, unaudited results, which
 
are not final until the Company’s Quarterly Report
on Form 10-Q is filed. This earnings release contains forward-looking statements regarding, among other things, our business plans, the
acquisition of Central, and future financial performance. Any statements about management’s expectations, beliefs, plans, predictions,
forecasts, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance are not historical facts and may
 
be forward-looking. These statements
are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “anticipate,”
 
“believes,” “can,” “could,” “may,” “predicts,”
“potential,” “should,” “will,” “estimate,” “planned,” “projects,” “continuing,” “ongoing,”
 
“expects,” “intends” and similar words or
phrases. The inclusion of forward-looking information in this earnings release should not be regarded
 
as a representation by us or any
other person that the future plans, estimates or expectations contemplated by us will be achieved.
 
The Company has based these forward-
looking statements largely on its current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that it believes may affect its
financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs.
 
Our actual results could differ materially from those
anticipated in such forward-looking statements.
Accordingly, the Company cautions you that any such forward-looking statements are
 
not a guarantee of future performance and that
actual results may prove to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking
 
statements due to a
number of factors. Such factors include, without limitation, credit quality and risk, ongoing impact of
 
the COVID-19 pandemic, industry
and technological changes, cyber incidents or other failures, disruptions or
 
security breaches, interest rates, commercial and residential real
estate values, economic and market conditions in the United States or internationally, funding availability,
 
accounting estimates and risk
management processes, the transition away from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR),
 
legislative and regulatory changes,
business strategy execution, hiring and retention of key personnel, competition, mortgage markets, fraud committed
 
against the Company,
environmental liability and severe weather, natural disasters, acts of war or terrorism or
 
other external events. These and other factors that
could cause results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements, as well as a discussion
 
of the risks and
uncertainties that may affect our business, can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and in
other filings we make with the Securities and Exchange Commission. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this
communication, and we disclaim any obligation to update any forward-looking statement or to publicly
 
announce the results of any
revisions to any of the forward-looking statements included herein, except as required by law.

TABLE 5. NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, the
 
Company discloses non-GAAP financial measures
in this release. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures presented
 
in this release reflect industry conventions, or
standard measures within the industry, and provide useful information to the Company's management,
 
investors and other parties
interested in the Company's operating performance. These measurements should be considered
 
in addition to, but not as a substitute for,
financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. We have defined below each of
 
the non-GAAP measures we use in this release,
but these measures may not be synonymous to similar measurement terms used by
 
other companies.
CrossFirst provides reconciliations (unaudited) of these non-GAAP measures
 
below. The measures used in this release include the
following:
We calculate ‘‘non-GAAP core operating income’’ as net income adjusted to remove
 
non-core income and expense items
related to:
Acquisition costs - We incurred expenses in the second quarter of 2022 related to the announced acquisition of
 
Central
Bancorp, Inc.’s bank subsidiary, Farmers & Stockmens Bank.
Employee separation - During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded
 
$1.1 million expense related to
employee separation.
Charges and adjustments associated with the full vesting of a former executive - We incurred additional charges in the second
quarter of 2021 related to the acceleration of $0.7 million of certain cash, stock-based compensation,
 
and employee costs.
Bank Owned Life Insurance - We obtain bank owned life insurance on key employees throughout the organization and
received a $1.8 million benefit in the second quarter of 2021.
Unrealized loss on equity security - During the quarter ended September 30, 2021, the Company
 
recorded a $6.2 million
impairment loss related to an equity investment that was received as part of a restructured loan agreement.
The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for non-GAAP core operating
 
income is net income.
Management
believes that non-GAAP core operating income removes events that are not part of core
 
business activities and are useful
analytical tools for investors to compare periods excluding these non-core expenses and charges.
We calculate "non-GAAP core return on average tangible common equity" as non-GAAP core operating
 
income (as defined
above) divided by average tangible common equity. Average tangible common equity is calculated as average common
equity less average goodwill and intangibles and average preferred equity. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is
return on average common equity. Management believes that non-GAAP core return on average tangible
 
common equity
removes events that are not part of core business activities and are useful analytical tools for investors to compare periods
excluding these non-core expenses and charges.
We calculate "non-GAAP core operating return on average assets" as non-GAAP core operating income
 
(as defined above)
divided by average assets. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is return on average assets, which is
calculated as net income divided by average assets. Management believes that non-GAAP core operating
 
return on average
assets removes events that are not part of core business activities and are useful analytical tools for
 
investors to compare
periods excluding these non-core expenses and charges.
We calculate "tangible common stockholders' equity" as total stockholders' equity less goodwill and intangibles and
preferred equity. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is total stockholders' equity. Management believes that
tangible stockholders’ equity is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in changes from
 
period to
period in our stockholders’ equity, exclusive of changes in intangible assets.
 
We calculate ‘‘tangible book value per share’’ as tangible common stockholders'
 
equity (as defined above) divided by the
total number of shares outstanding. The most directly comparable GAAP measure is book value per share.
Management
believes that tangible book value per share is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in changes
from period to period in our stockholders’ equity, exclusive of changes in intangible assets.
 
We calculate ‘‘non-GAAP loan growth, excluding PPP loans’’ as gross loans, net of unearned income
 
subtracted by PPP
loans, net of unearned income. Management believes that loan growth, excluding PPP loans is important
 
to investors
because it is a better representation of the overall loan portfolio activity when comparing between
 
periods.
 
CROSSFIRST BANKSHARES, INC.

We calculate "non-GAAP core operating efficiency ratio - fully tax equivalent (FTE)" as non-interest expense adjusted
 
to
remove non-core, non-interest expenses as defined above
 
under non-GAAP core operating income divided by net interest
income on a fully tax-equivalent basis plus non-interest income adjusted to remove non-core, non-interest
 
income as defined
above under non-GAAP core operating income. The most directly comparable financial measure is the efficiency ratio.
Management believes that the non-GAAP core operating efficiency ratio is important to many investors
 
because the ratio
removes events that are not part of core business activities and is a useful analytical tool.
We calculate "non-GAAP pre-tax pre-provision profit" as net income before taxes plus the provision for credit losses.
Management believes that non-GAAP pre-tax pre-provision profit
 
is important to many investors because the calculation
removes the tax impact on the financials and gives investors insight into the operating income
 
of the company.

LEGAL DISCLAIMER CROSSFIRST BANKSAHRES, INC. FORWARD
 
-LOOKING STATEMENTS. The financial results in
 
this presentation reflect preliminary, unaudited results, which are
 
not final until the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q is
 
filed. This presentation and oral statements made during this
 
meeting contain forward-looking statements. These forward-
 
looking statements reflect our current views with respect to, among
 
other things, future events and our financial performance
 
.
 
These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements
 
regarding our business plans, the acquisition of F&S Bank, expansion
 
targets and opportunities, and future financial performance
 
.
 
These statements are often, but not always, made through the use
 
of words or phrases such as "may," "might," "should," "could,"
 
"predict," "potential," "believe," "expect," "continue," "will,"
 
"anticipate," "seek," "estimate," "intend," "plan," "strive," "projection,"
 
"goal," "target," "outlook," "aim," "would," "annualized" and "outlook,"
 
or the negative version of those words or other comparable
 
words or phrases 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 our industry, management’s
 
beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of
 
which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our
 
control. Accordingly, we caution you that any such forward
 
-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance
 
and are subject to risks, assumptions, estimates and uncertainties that are difficult
 
to predict. Although we believe 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. There are
 
or will be
important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially
 
from those indicated in these forward-looking statements,
 
including, but not limited to, the following: risks relating to the
 
COVID-19 pandemic; risks related to general business and economic conditions
 
and any regulatory responses to such conditions; our ability
 
to effectively execute our growth strategy and manage our
 
growth, including identifying and consummating suitable mergers
 
and acquisitions; the geographic concentration of our markets; fluctuation
 
of the fair value of our investment securities due to factors outside
 
our control; our ability to successfully manage our credit risk and
 
the sufficiency of our allowance; regulatory restrictions on our ability
 
to grow due to our concentration in commercial real estate lending;
 
our ability to attract, hire and retain key personnel; interest rate
 
fluctuations; our ability to raise or maintain sufficient capital; competition
 
from banks, credit unions and other financial services providers;
 
the effectiveness of our risk management framework in mitigating
 
risks and losses; our ability to maintain effective internal control
 
over financial reporting; our ability to keep pace with technological
 
changes; system failures and interruptions, cyber-attacks and security
 
breaches; employee error, fraudulent activity by employees
 
or clients and inaccurate or incomplete information about our
 
clients and counterparties; our ability to maintain our reputation;
 
costs and effects of litigation, investigations or similar
 
matters; risk exposure from transactions with financial counterparties;
 
severe weather, acts of god, acts of war or terrorism; compliance
 
with governmental and regulatory requirements; changes in the laws, rules,
 
regulations, interpretations
 
or policies relating to financial institutions, accounting, tax,
 
trade, monetary and fiscal matters; compliance with requirements
 
associated with being a public company; level of
coverage of our business by securities analysts; and future equity issuances..
 
These and other factors that could cause results to differ materially
 
from those described in the forward-looking statements, as well
 
as a discussion of the risks and uncertainties that may affect
 
our business, can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, our Quarterly
 
Reports on Form 10-Q and in other filings we make with the Securities
 
and Exchange Commission. These forward-looking statements
 
are made as of the date of this communication, and we disclaim
 
any obligation to update any forward-looking statement or to publicly
 
announce the results of any revisions to any of the forward
 
-looking statements included herein, except as required by law. 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. MARKET AND INDUSTRY

ABOUT NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES CROSSFIRST
 
BANKSAHRES, INC. Certain of the financial measures and ratios we
 
present, including “tangible common equity”, “tangible assets”,
 
“tangible book
 
value”, and “tangible book value per share” metrics, are
 
supplemental measures that are not required by, or are not presented in
 
accordance with, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
 
We refer to these financial measures and ratios as “non-GAAP
 
financial measures.” We consider the use of select non-GAAP
 
financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial and operational
 
decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons.
 
We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide
 
meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance
 
by excluding certain expenditures or assets that we believe are not indicative
 
of our primary business operating results or by presenting certain
 
metrics on a fully taxable equivalent basis. We believe that management
 
and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial
 
measures
 
in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting,
 
analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods. These
 
non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a
 
substitute for financial information presented in accordance
 
with GAAP and you should not rely on non-GAAP financial measures alone
 
as measures of our performance. The non-GAAP financial measures
 
we present may differ from non-GAAP financial measures used
 
by our peers or other companies. We compensate for these limitations
 
by providing the equivalent GAAP measures whenever we
 
present the non-GAAP financial measures and by including a reconciliation
 
of the impact of the components adjusted for in the non-GAAP
 
financial measure so that both measures and the individual components
 
may be considered when
analyzing our performance. CrossFirst does not provide a reconciliation
 
of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to its comparable
 
GAAP financial measures because it could not do so without unreasonable
 
effort due to the unavailability of the information needed to calculate
 
reconciling items and the variability, complexity and limited visibility
 
of the adjusting items that would be excluded from the non
 
-GAAP financial measures in future periods. When planning, forecasting
 
and analyzing future periods, CrossFirst does so primarily
 
on a non-GAAP basis without preparing a GAAP analysis as that
 
would require estimates for various cash and non-cash reconciling items
 
(including items such as expected credit losses, acquisition-
 
and disposition-related expenses, and restructuring costs) that
 
would be difficult to predict with reasonable accuracy.
 
For example, future expectations for credit losses depend on a variety of
 
factors including general economic conditions that make estimation
 
on a GAAP basis impractical. It is also difficult to anticipate
 
the need for or magnitude of presently unforeseen one-time restructuring
 
expenses. As a result, CrossFirst does not believe that a GAAP
 
reconciliation to forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure
 
s
 
would provide meaningful supplemental information about CrossFirst’s
 
forward-looking measures. 3
