AMERANT REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2024 RESULTS

Board of Directors Declares Quarterly Cash Dividend of $0.09 per Common Share

CORAL GABLES, FLORIDA, July 24, 2024. Amerant Bancorp Inc. (NYSE: AMTB) (the “Company” or “Amerant”) today reported net income attributable to the Company of $5.0 million in the second quarter of 2024, or $0.15 per diluted share, compared to $10.6 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2024.

“The Company had strong loan growth in the second quarter, as well as significantly higher pre-provision net revenue, excluding the impact of previously disclosed deal charges from the sale of our Houston franchise” stated Jerry Plush, Chairman and CEO. “However, the provision for credit losses was higher than the first quarter, primarily related to a legacy commercial credit that, while paying as agreed, was downgraded based on the receipt of updated financial information. We are actively working toward reaching a positive resolution on this credit, as we remain focused on executing on our strategic plan.”

•Total assets were $9.7 billion, a decrease of $70.0 million, or 0.7%, compared to $9.8 billion in 1Q24.

•Cash and cash equivalents were $310.3 million, down $349.4 million, or 53.0%, compared to $659.7 million in 1Q24.

•Total gross loans were $7.32 billion, an increase of $316.5 million, or 4.5%, compared to $7.01 billion in 1Q24, driven by organic production during the quarter.

•Average yield on loans increased to 7.08%, compared to 7.05% in 1Q24.

•Total deposits were $7.82 billion, down $62.2 million, or 0.8%, compared to $7.88 billion in 1Q24, as continued organic growth was offset by a reduction in higher-cost municipal and commercial deposits.

•Core deposits were $5.51 billion, down $127.8 million, or 2.3%, compared to $5.63 billion in 1Q24, driven by the previously referenced reduction in higher-cost municipal and commercial deposits.

•Average cost of total deposits slightly decreased to 2.98%, compared to 3.00% in 1Q24.

•Loan to deposit ratio was 93.69%, compared to 88.93% in 1Q24.

•Total non-performing assets were $121.1 million, up $70.6 million, or 139.9%, compared to $50.5 million as of 1Q24. The increase was primarily driven by three credits previously classified as special mention and two newly downgraded loans to substandard based on receipt of updated financial information from borrowers in the second quarter.

•The allowance for credit losses ("ACL") was $94.4 million, a decrease of $1.7 million, or 1.7%, compared to $96.1 million as of 1Q24.

•Provision for credit losses was $19.2 million, up $6.8 million, or 54.4%, compared to $12.4 million in 1Q24.

•Non-interest income was $19.4 million, up $4.9 million, or 34.0%, from $14.5 million in 1Q24.

Interim Financial Information

Unaudited financial information as of and for interim periods, including the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, and the three months ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, may not reflect our results of operations for our fiscal year ending, or financial condition, as of December 31, 2024, or any other period of time or date.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company supplements its financial results that are determined in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) with non-GAAP financial measures, such as “pre-provision net revenue (PPNR)”, “core pre-provision net revenue (Core PPNR)”, “core noninterest income”, “core noninterest expense”, “core net income”, “core earnings per share (basic and diluted)”, “core return on assets (Core ROA)”, “core return on equity (Core ROE)”, “core efficiency ratio”, “tangible stockholders’ equity (book value) per common share”, “tangible common equity ratio, adjusted for unrealized losses on debt securities held to maturity”, and “tangible stockholders' equity (book value) per common share, adjusted for unrealized losses on debt securities held to maturity”. This supplemental information is not required by, or is not presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company refers to these financial measures and ratios as “non-GAAP financial measures” and they should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the GAAP measures presented herein.

We use certain non-GAAP financial measures, including those mentioned above, both to explain our results to shareholders and the investment community and in the internal evaluation and management of our businesses. Our management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures and the information they provide are useful to investors since these measures permit investors to view our performance using the same tools that our management uses to evaluate our past performance and prospects for future performance, especially in light of the additional costs we have incurred in connection with the Company’s restructuring activities that began in 2018 and continued in 2024, including the effect of non-core banking activities such as the sale of loans and securities and other repossessed assets, the Houston Transaction, the valuation of securities, derivatives, loans held for sale and other real estate owned and repossessed assets, the early repayment of FHLB advances, impairment of investments, Bank owned life insurance restructure and other non-routine actions intended to improve customer service and operating performance. While we believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating our performance, this information should be considered as supplemental and not as a substitute for or superior to the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Additionally, these non-GAAP financial measures may differ from similar measures presented by other companies.

Exhibit 2 reconciles these non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP reported results.

____________

(1) In the second and first quarter of 2024 and in the fourth and third quarter of 2023, includes $17.7 million, $12.4 million, $12.0 million and $7.4 million of provision for credit losses on loans, respectively. Provision for unfunded commitments (contingencies) in the second quarter of 2024, and in the fourth and third quarter of 2023, were $1.5 million, $0.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively, while there was none in the first quarter of 2024.

(2) In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company completed a restructuring of its bank-owned life insurance (“BOLI”) program. This was executed through a combination of a 1035 exchange and a surrender and reinvestment into higher-yielding general account with a new investment grade insurance carrier. This transaction allowed for higher team member participation through an enhanced split-dollar plan. Estimated improved yields resulting from the enhancement have an earn-back period of approximately 2 years. In the fourth quarter of 2023, we recorded total additional expenses and charges of $4.6 million in connection with this transaction, including: (i) a reduction of $0.7 million to the cash surrender value of BOLI; (ii) transaction costs of $1.1 million, and (iii) income tax expense of $2.8 million.

(9) In the three months ended December 31, 2023, includes (i) fair value adjustment of $35.5 million related to an aggregate of $401 million in Houston-based CRE loans held for sale which are carried at the lower of cost or fair value, and (ii) a loss on sale of $2.0 million related to a New York-based CRE loan previously carried at the lower of cost or fair value. In the three months ended September 30, 2023, includes a fair value adjustment of $5.6 million related to a New York-based CRE loan held for sale carried at the lower of cost or fair value.

(14) In the three months ended December 31, 2023, per share amounts and percentages were calculated using the after-tax impact of non-routine items in noninterest expense of $34.2 million and BOLI tax impact of $2.8 million in the same period. In all other periods shown, per share amounts and percentages were calculated using the after tax impact of non-routine items in noninterest expense.

(15) See 2023 Form 10-K for more information on potential dilutive instruments and its impact on diluted earnings per share computation.

(16) At June 30, 2024, March 31, 2024, December 31, 2023 and September 30, 2023, other intangible assets primarily consist of naming rights of $2.3 million, $2.4 million, $2.5 million and $2.7 million, respectively, and mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”) of $1.5 million, $1.4 million, $1.4 million and $1.3 million, respectively.
