Income from Operations
Net income totaled $18.6 million, or $0.37 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2024, compared to $18.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2024 and $16.0 million, or $0.33 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2023. On a linked quarter basis, net income was higher due to increases in net interest income and non-interest income, partially offset by higher provision expense and non-interest expense. Compared to the same period in the prior year, the quarter’s results reflect higher net interest income, as well as lower provision expense, partially offset by lower non-interest income and higher non-interest expense.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income – FTE increased $1.3 million compared to the first quarter of 2024 entirely due to higher average earning assets as the net interest margin – FTE was 3.20% in both periods. The yield on earning assets increased six basis points due to stronger yields on both loans and taxable securities. The cost of funds also increased six basis points due to continued pricing pressure on interest-bearing deposits, as well as higher rates on Federal Home Loan Bank advances due to higher intra-quarter utilization. Average earning assets increased $161 million compared to the prior quarter primarily due to higher average loan balances and higher average taxable securities balances.
Compared to the second quarter of 2023, net interest income – FTE increased $3.1 million as the benefit from higher average earning assets was partially offset by a seven basis point reduction in net interest margin - FTE. The yield on earning assets increased 39 basis points due to stronger loan yields and higher yields on securities. The cost of a rate hedge also lowered the earning asset yield by eight basis points. The cost of funds increased 51 basis points compared to the second quarter of 2023 due to pricing pressure on deposits, client migration into higher cost deposit products and a reduction in average non-interest-bearing deposits compared to the prior year. The increase in average earning assets was driven by higher average loan and securities balances as well as higher average cash balances.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income increased $0.1 million compared to the first quarter of 2024 and decreased $0.1 million compared to the same quarter in 2023. The increase compared to the linked quarter was primarily due to increases in client service charges and fees, partially offset by lower gains on sale of loans. Compared to the same quarter in the prior year, the decrease was primarily due to lower gains on sale of loans, partially offset by increases in client service charges and fees and stronger credit card interchange income.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense increased $0.2 million from the first quarter of 2024 and increased $0.3 million from the second quarter of 2023. Salaries and employee benefits were lower compared to the first quarter of 2024 primarily due to lower payroll taxes and benefits costs, partially offset by merit increases. Salaries and employee benefits were lower compared to the second quarter of 2023 primarily
CROSSFIRST BANKSHARES, INC.
due to a decrease in severance expenses and lower benefits costs, partially offset by merit increases and higher equity compensation expense. Data processing expense increased compared to both comparative periods due to $0.7 million of net cost incurred in the first quarter of 2024 related to the renegotiation of our core systems contract, which is expected to be earned back over the next four months. Additionally, foreclosed assets, net decreased compared to the first quarter of 2024 due to expense in the prior quarter related to a commercial construction credit that was moved to foreclosed assets held for sale.
The Company’s effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2024 was 20.7%, compared to 20.8% in the first quarter of 2024 and the second quarter of 2023.
Statement of Financial Condition Performance & Analysis
During the second quarter of 2024, total assets increased $159 million, or 2%, compared to the end of the prior quarter and increased $518 million, or 7%, compared to June 30, 2023. Total assets increased for both comparative periods primarily due to an increase in loans, which included acquired loans when compared to June 30, 2023. Compared to the end of the prior quarter, the asset increase also included an increase in cash. Deposits increased $147 million compared to March 31, 2024, and increased $634 million, including $165 million in acquired deposits, compared to June 30, 2023.
Loan Results
During the second quarter of 2024, loans increased $95 million, or 2%, compared to March 31, 2024. Loans increased $547 million, or 9%, compared to June 30, 2023, including $106 million, net, of acquired loans. The loan increase for both comparative periods was primarily due to growth in the commercial and industrial and the commercial real estate – non-owner-occupied portfolios. The increases in the commercial real estate portfolio were primarily due to funding of prior commitments, as well as the addition of acquired loans compared to June 30, 2023.

FHLB and Other borrowings ended the quarter at $85.1 million compared to $86.8 million at March 31, 2024 and $277 million at June 30, 2023. The average borrowings balance was higher this quarter as we utilized borrowings during the quarter due to seasonal client cash outflows which resolved by the end of the quarter leaving the ending balance flat compared to the end of the prior quarter. Compared to the same period in the prior year, borrowings were reduced due to client deposit growth, including acquired deposits.
Asset Quality and Provision for Credit Losses
The Company recorded $2.4 million of provision expense, compared to $1.7 million in the prior quarter and $2.6 million in the prior year second quarter. The current quarter’s provision expense was primarily driven by loan growth and economic factors.
Non-performing assets decreased $3.7 million to $16.7 million, or 0.22% of total assets, at June 30, 2024. The decrease was due to a reduction in loans 90+ days past due and still accruing, client principal payments and partial charge-offs. Annualized net charge-offs were 0.07% for the quarter compared to 0.10% in the prior quarter and 0.04% in the prior year second quarter. Classified loans also decreased meaningfully in the quarter with the ratio of classified loans to total capital and ACL improving to 13.3%.
The allowance for credit losses was $76.2 million as of June 30, 2024 and was consistent with the prior quarter at 1.20% of outstanding loans. The combined allowance for credit losses and accrual for off-balance sheet credit risk from unfunded commitments (“RUC”) was $81.4 million or 1.28% of outstanding loans.

TABLE 5. NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to disclosing financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), the Company discloses non-GAAP financial measures in this release including “tangible common stockholders’ equity,” “tangible book value per common share,” “adjusted efficiency ratio – fully tax equivalent (FTE),” “adjusted net income,” “adjusted diluted earnings per common share,” “adjusted return on average assets (ROAA),” and “adjusted return on average common equity (ROCE).” 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 gains that we believe are not indicative of our primary business operating results. 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.
A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures follows.

| 1 Second Quarter 2024 Results July 15, 2024 |
| 2 LEGAL DISCLAIMER 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 relating to this presentation contain forward-looking statements regarding, among other things, our business plans; growth opportunities; expense control initiatives; anticipated expenses, cash requirements and sources of liquidity; capital allocation strategies and plans; and future financial performance. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “positioned,” “growth,” “estimate,” “believe,” “plan,” “future,” “opportunity,” “optimistic,” “anticipate,” “target,” “expectations,” “expect,” “will,” “strategy,” “goal, “focused,” “guidance,” “foresee” and similar words or phrases of a future or forward-looking nature. The inclusion of forward-looking information herein 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. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about our industry, management’s beliefs, certain assumptions made by management, and financial trends that may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy or financial needs, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements. 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 due to a number of factors, including without limitation, the following: uncertain or unfavorable business or economic conditions and any regulatory responses thereto, including uncertainty and volatility in the financial markets; possible slowing or recessionary economic conditions and continuing or increasing inflation; geographic concentration of our markets; changes in market interest rates that affect the pricing of our products and our net interest income; our ability to effectively execute our growth strategy and manage our growth, including identifying, consummating and integrating suitable mergers and acquisitions, entering new lines of business or offering new or enhanced services or products; fluctuations in the fair value of our investments; our ability to successfully manage our credit risk, particularly in our commercial real estate, energy and commercial-based loan portfolios, and the sufficiency of our allowance for credit losses; declines in the values of the real estate and other collateral securing loans in our portfolio; an increase in non-performing assets; borrower and depositor concentration risks; risks associated with originating Small Business Administration loans; our dependence on our management team, including our ability to attract, hire and retain key employees and their client and community relationships; our ability to raise and maintain sufficient liquidity and capital; competition from banks, credit unions, FinTech companies and other financial services providers; the effectiveness of our risk management framework; accounting estimates; our ability to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting; our ability to keep pace with technological changes; system failures, service denials, cyber incidents or other failures, disruptions or security breaches; employee error, employee or client misconduct, fraud committed against the Company or our clients, or incomplete or inaccurate information about clients and counterparties; disruptions to our business caused by our third-party service providers; our ability to maintain our reputation; environmental liability or failure to comply with regulatory requirements affecting foreclosed properties; costs and effects of litigation, investigations or similar matters to which we may be subject; risk exposure from transactions with financial counterparties; severe weather, natural disasters, pandemics or other health crises, acts of war or terrorism, climate change and responses thereto, or other external events; compliance with (and changes in) laws, rules, regulations, interpretations or policies relating to or affecting financial institutions, including stringent capital requirements, higher FDIC insurance premiums and assessments, consumer protection laws and privacy laws and accounting, tax, trade, monetary and fiscal matters, including the policies of the Federal Reserve and as a result of government initiatives; systemic risks across the banking industry associated with the soundness of other financial institutions; volatility in our stock price and other risks associated with our common stock; changes in our dividend or share repurchase policies and practices 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 hereof, 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. MARKET AND INDUSTRY DATA. This presentation references certain market, industry and demographic data, forecasts and other statistical information. We have obtained this data, forecasts and information from various independent, third party industry sources and publications. Nothing in the data, forecasts or information used or derived from third party sources should be construed as advice. Some data and other information are also based on our good faith estimates, which are derived from our review of industry publications and surveys and independent sources. We believe that these sources and estimates are reliable but have not independently verified them. Statements as to our market position are based on market data currently available to us. Although we are not aware of any misstatements regarding the economic, employment, industry and other market data presented herein, these estimates involve inherent risks and uncertainties and are based on assumptions that are subject to change. ABOUT NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES. In addition to disclosing financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), we disclose non-GAAP financial measures, including “adjusted net income”, “adjusted diluted earnings per common share”, “tangible common stockholders’ equity”, “tangible book value per common share”, “adjusted return on average assets (ROAA)”, “adjusted return on average common equity (ROCE)”, “adjusted efficiency ratio – fully tax equivalent (FTE),” “pre-tax pre-provision (PTPP) profit” and “adjusted non-interest expense.” 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 gains that we believe are not indicative of our primary business operating results. 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 should not be relied on 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.
