CEO Commentary
"Our teams remain focused on their customers and communities as we continue to drive balanced growth for the organization,” said Clint Stein, President and CEO. “We are back to business as usual, and our third quarter results highlight stabilizing customer deposit trends, relationship-driven growth in our loan portfolio and customer-based fee income, and a smaller impact from merger-related expense that affect our reported results. We achieved $140 million in annualized net merger-related cost savings through quarter end, surpassing our originally announced target of $135 million despite continued investment in our growing franchise, which includes the opening of our first branch in Utah during the third quarter. Our talented associates, expanding footprint, and customer-focused business model enable us to continue to win business and drive shareholder value.”
Clint Stein, President and CEO of Columbia Banking System, Inc.
3Q23 HIGHLIGHTS (COMPARED TO 2Q23)
Net Interest Income and NIM
Net interest income decreased by $3 million or 1% on a linked-quarter basis as the increase in interest income due to higher yields was more than offset by higher funding costs.
Net interest margin was 3.91%, down 2 basis points from the prior quarter. The second full quarter as a combined organization, higher customer balances, and consistent purchase accounting trends contributed to net interest margin stabilization between quarters.
Non-Interest Income and Expense
Non-interest income increased by $4 million due primarily to higher customer-related fee income and loan gain-on-sale income as well as a lower loss due to cumulative non-merger fair value accounting and hedges.
Non-interest expense decreased by $24 million due to the realization of cost savings and lower merger-related expense.
Credit Quality
Net charge-offs were 0.25% of average loans and leases (annualized) compared to 0.30% in the prior quarter. Charge-off activity remains centered in the FinPac portfolio.
Provision expense of $37 million relates to portfolio mix changes and credit migration trends.
Non-performing assets to total assets was 0.20% compared to 0.15% at June 30, 2023.
Capital
Estimated total risk-based capital ratio of 11.5% and estimated common equity tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 9.4%.
Declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.36 per common share on August 14, 2023, which was paid September 11, 2023.
Notable items
Sold $159 million in non-relationship jumbo residential mortgage loans that were marked to fair value at merger close.
Completed the sale of approximately one-third of the MSR portfolio.
Incurred $19 million in merger-related expense.

Organizational Update
Columbia Banking System, Inc. ("Columbia", "we", or "our") has completed substantially all integration priorities, driving the realization of $140 million in annualized net merger-related cost-savings as of September 30, 2023, outpacing the $135 million target communicated when the combination was announced. Further, Umpqua Bank, the primary subsidiary of Columbia, continued to expand its presence in Utah with the opening of its first branch in the state during the third quarter.

On February 28, 2023, Columbia completed its merger with Umpqua Holdings Corporation ("UHC"), combining the two premier banks in the Northwest to create one of the largest banks headquartered in the West (the "merger"). Columbia's financial results for any periods ended prior to February 28, 2023 reflect UHC results only on a standalone basis. In addition, Columbia's reported financial results for the first quarter of 2023 reflect UHC financial results only until the closing of the merger after the close of business on February 28, 2023. As a result of these two factors, Columbia's financial results for the first, second, and third quarters of 2023 and the nine months ended September 30, 2023 may not be directly comparable to prior reported periods. The number of shares issued and outstanding, earnings per share, additional paid-in capital, and all references to share quantities or metrics of Columbia have been retrospectively restated to reflect the equivalent number of shares issued in the merger as the merger was treated as a reverse merger. Under the reverse acquisition method of accounting, the assets and liabilities of Columbia as of February 28, 2023 ("historical Columbia") were recorded at their respective fair values.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income was $481 million for the third quarter of 2023, down $3 million from the prior quarter. The slight decline reflects higher interest income given expanded earning asset yields that were more than offset by higher funding costs.

Columbia's net interest margin was 3.91% for the third quarter of 2023, down 2 basis points from 3.93% for the second quarter of 2023. The second full quarter as a combined organization, higher customer balances, and consistent purchase accounting trends contributed to net interest margin stabilization between quarters. The cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 37 basis points on a linked-quarter basis to 2.01% for the third quarter of 2023, which compares to 2.18% for the month of September and 2.27% at September 30, 2023. Deposit costs were impacted by the decision to replace a portion of maturing FHLB advances with brokered deposits during the third quarter, which increased our cost of deposits but was fairly neutral to our cost of interest-bearing liabilities. Columbia's cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 27 basis points on a linked-quarter basis to 2.72% for the third quarter of 2023, which compares to 2.77% for the month of September and 2.78% at September 30, 2023. Please refer to the Q3 2023 Earnings Presentation for additional net interest margin change details and interest rate sensitivity information as well as to our non-GAAP disclosures in this press release for the impact of purchase accounting accretion and amortization on individual line items.

Non-interest Income
Non-interest income was $44 million for the third quarter of 2023, up $4 million from the prior quarter. Higher customer-related fee income, loan gain-on-sale income from select portfolio sales, and a smaller loss related to fair value adjustments and mortgage servicing rights ("MSR") hedging activity drove the increase. A net fair value loss of $15 million in the third quarter compares to a net fair value loss of $16 million in the second quarter, as detailed in our non-GAAP disclosures. As previously communicated, Columbia entered an agreement to sell approximately one-third of its MSR portfolio that relates to a non-relationship component of the serviced loan portfolio. The transaction closed in late September without any income statement impact.

Non-interest Expense
Non-interest expense was $304 million for the third quarter of 2023, down $24 million from the prior quarter level. The decrease reflects the realization of cost savings as well as an $11 million decline in merger-related expense, which were $19 million in the third quarter. Please refer to the Q3 2023 Earnings Presentation for additional expense details, including an update on realized merger-related cost-savings through September 30, 2023.

Balance Sheet
Total consolidated assets were $52.0 billion as of September 30, 2023, compared to $53.6 billion as of June 30, 2023. Cash and cash equivalents was $2.4 billion as of September 30, 2023, a decrease of $1.0 billion relative to June 30, 2023. We reduced our cash position during the third quarter given stabilizing industry trends and ample sources of available liquidity. Excess cash was used to pay off maturing FHLB advances, which declined to $4.0 billion as of September 30, 2023, compared to $6.3 billion as of June 30, 2023. Including secured off-balance sheet lines of credit, total available liquidity was $19.1 billion as of September 30, 2023, representing 37% of total assets, 46% of total deposits, and 142% of uninsured deposits. Please refer to the Q3 2023 Earnings Presentation for additional details related to our liquidity position.

Available for sale securities, which are held on balance sheet at fair value, were $8.5 billion as of September 30, 2023, a decrease of $494 million relative to June 30, 2023, as paydowns and a decline in the fair value of the portfolio were only partially offset by accretion of the discount on historical Columbia securities. Please refer to the Q3 2023 Earnings Presentation for additional details related to our securities portfolio.

Gross loans and leases were $37.2 billion as of September 30, 2023, an increase of $121 million relative to June 30, 2023, as organic growth during the quarter more than offset the sale of $159 million in non-relationship jumbo residential mortgage loans that were marked to fair value at merger close. "We continued to selectively prune the portfolio during the third quarter, bringing the transfer and sale of loans that were transactional in nature to approximately $650 million over the past two quarters," commented Tory Nixon, President of Umpqua Bank. "Higher outstanding commercial line balances and other relationship-driven expansion contributed to 3% annualized loan growth in the third quarter when loan sales are excluded." Please refer to the Q3 2023 Earnings Presentation for additional details related to our loan portfolio, which include underwriting characteristics, the composition of our commercial portfolios, and disclosure related to our office portfolio.

Total deposits were $41.6 billion as of September 30, 2023, an increase of $789 million relative to June 30, 2023. "Customer deposit balances stabilized during the third quarter, increasing slightly between September and June," stated Mr. Nixon. "While market liquidity tightening, the impact of inflation on customer spending, and businesses' use of cash continue to impact our deposit flows, our teams' focus on balancing deposit generation alongside other growth resulted in net deposit increases throughout many business lines." Please refer to the Q3 2023 Earnings Presentation for additional details related to deposit characteristics and flows.

Credit Quality
The allowance for credit losses was $438 million, or 1.18% of loans and leases, as of September 30, 2023, compared to $424 million, or 1.15% of loans and leases, as of June 30, 2023. The provision for credit losses was $37 million for the third quarter of 2023 and reflects portfolio mix changes and credit migration trends. Please refer to the Q3 2023 Earnings Presentation for additional details related to the allowance for credit losses and other credit trends.

Net charge-offs were 0.25% of average loans and leases (annualized) for the third quarter of 2023, compared to 0.30% for the second quarter of 2023. Net charge-off activity continued to be centered in the FinPac portfolio, which experienced a decline in charge-offs. Bank charge-off activity remained low at 0.01% of average bank loans. As of September 30, 2023, non-performing assets were $106 million, or 0.20% of total assets, compared to $80 million, or 0.15% as of June 30, 2023.

Capital
As of September 30, 2023, Columbia's book value per common share decreased to $22.21, compared to $23.16 at June 30, 2023. The linked-quarter change in book value primarily reflects a change in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income ("AOCI") to $(680) million at September 30, 2023, compared to $(419) million at the prior quarter-end. The change in AOCI is due primarily to an increase in the tax-effected net unrealized loss on available for sale securities to $650 million as of September 30, 2023, compared to $403 million as of June 30, 2023. Tangible book value per common share3 decreased to $14.22, compared to $15.02 at June 30, 2023.

Columbia's estimated total risk-based capital ratio was 11.5% and its estimated common equity tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 9.4% as of September 30, 2023, compared to 11.3% and 9.2%, respectively, at June 30, 2023. Columbia remains above current “well-capitalized” regulatory minimums. "We continued to build capital during the quarter through organic earnings generation and the realization of loan and investment securities discount accretion," stated Ron Farnsworth, Chief Financial Officer of Columbia. "We expect our capital position to continue to build over time, supporting our growing franchise and increasing flexibility for capital return." The regulatory capital ratios as of September 30, 2023 are estimates, pending completion and filing of Columbia's regulatory reports.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. The company believes presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with information useful in understanding our financial performance, our performance trends, and our financial position. We utilize these measures for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We, as well as securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties, also use these measures to compare peer company operating performance. We believe that our presentation and discussion, together with the accompanying reconciliations, provides a complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business and allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to management. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitution for GAAP basis measures and results, and we strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.

(1)Tax exempt interest has been adjusted to a taxable equivalent basis using a 21% tax rate.
(2) Includes discount accretion related to UHC's 2014 acquisition of Sterling Financial Corporation.
(3)The cumulative fair value discount on historical Columbia loans was established as of February 28, 2023, and the allocation between the credit-related discount and the rate-related discount was established at that time. Our disclosure of credit-related and rate-related discount accretion is an estimate based on the relative allocation of these two items to the discount at closing.
