Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measure Core Deposits are a non-GAAP measure that we use to measure the portion of our total deposits that are thought to be more stable, lower cost and reprice less frequently on average in a rising rate environment. We calculate core deposits as total deposits less time deposits greater than $250,000 and brokered deposits. Management tracks its core deposits because management believes it is a useful measure to help assess the Company’s deposit base and, among other things, potential volatility therein. The following table reconciles core deposits to total deposits, its most comparable GAAP measure: ($ in thousands) 09/30/17 12/31/17 03/31/18 06/30/18 09/30/18 12/31/18 03/31/19 06/30/19 Total Deposits $ 1,213,274 $ 1,251,290 $ 1,381,925 $ 1,427,245 $ 1,419,526 $ 1,443,753 $ 1,447,758 $ 1,446,526 Less: Time Deposits Greater Than $250,0000 (227,550) (229,862) (240,636) (252,554) (261,551) (281,239) (329,693) (284,780) Less: Brokered Deposits (17,506) (52,500) (52,500) (52,500) (47,500) (42,500) (37,510) (37,510) Core Deposits $ 968,218 $ 968,928 $ 1,088,789 $ 1,122,191 $ 1,110,475 $ 1,120,014 $ 1,080,555 $ 1,124,236 your Partner • Choice • Bank | 20
