Return on average assets of 1.10%
Completed acquisition of Jefferson County Bancshares, Inc. ("JCB")

First Quarter Core Highlights1 
Core net income of $0.59 per diluted share
Core return on average assets of 1.17%
Core net interest income increased 17% in the linked quarter, and 27% from the prior year period


St. Louis, Mo. April 24, 2017 – Enterprise Financial Services Corp (NASDAQ: EFSC) (the “Company”) reported net income of $12.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 9%, as compared to the linked fourth quarter. Net income per diluted share was $0.56 for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, a decrease of $0.11 compared to $0.67 per diluted share for the linked fourth quarter. The decrease from the linked quarter primarily resulted from a $2.2 million lower ( $0.11 per share) net contribution from non-core acquired assets. First quarter 2017 net income increased 12% from $11.0 million for the prior year period, and diluted earnings per share increased $0.02, or 4%, from $0.54 reported a year ago. The increase in net income over the prior year was largely due to an increase in net interest income from core deposit-funded portfolio loan growth and growth in noninterest income.

On a core basis1, the Company reported net income of $13.1 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, compared to $11.9 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, in the linked fourth quarter. First quarter 2017 core net income increased 39% from $9.4 million for the prior year period, and diluted core earnings per share grew 26% from $0.47 for the prior year period.  The diluted earnings per share increase of $0.12 was primarily due to higher levels of core net interest income from continued growth in earning asset balances combined with nine basis points of core net interest margin expansion. The earnings per share contribution from this growth was partially offset by a higher provision for portfolio loan losses. Additionally, the acquisition of JCB added an estimated $0.01 of earnings per share, and contributed to the growth of both linked-quarter and year-over-year core net income, of $1.2 million and $3.7 million, respectively.

On February 10, 2017, the Company announced the completion of its acquisition of JCB which was merged with and into Enterprise, with Enterprise continuing as the surviving entity pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 10, 2016. Immediately following the merger, Eagle Bank and Trust Company of Missouri ("Eagle"), the wholly-owned subsidiary of JCB, merged with and into Enterprise Bank & Trust ("EB&T"), Enterprise’s wholly-owned subsidiary bank, with EB&T continuing as the surviving entity. JCB added 13 traditional branches, approximately $675 million in loans, and $765 million in deposits.

The Company's Board of Directors approved the Company’s quarterly dividend of $0.11 per common share, payable on June 30, 2017 to shareholders of record as of June 15, 2017.

Peter Benoist, EFSC’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Enterprise has kicked-off 2017 by posting solid first quarter results. We have continued to grow our earnings and further elevate returns. Core return on average assets was 1.17% and resulted in a 14% return on average tangible common equity to our shareholders."

Benoist added, "Organic growth was seasonally strong as portfolio loans grew 7%, while we closed on our acquisition of Jefferson County Bancshares, which added to the early momentum for 2017. The team has done tremendous work thus far, and remains focused on successful integration of customers and associates of JCB. Nonetheless, we look to achieve continued performance gains through additional organic growth and further operating leverage during the year, and I am confident that the Enterprise team is poised to deliver a successful 2017."
Net Interest Income

Net interest income in the first quarter increased $3.2 million from the linked fourth quarter, and $6.2 million from the prior year period due to strong growth in portfolio loan balances funded principally with core deposits, an increase in core net interest margin discussed below, and the acquisition of JCB. Net interest margin, on a fully tax equivalent basis, was 3.73% for the first quarter, compared to 3.79% in the linked fourth quarter, and 3.87% in the first quarter of 2016. Net interest margin decreased primarily from lower contributions from non-core acquired loans.

The yield on Portfolio loans improved to 4.45% in the first quarter, an increase of 21 basis points from the linked fourth quarter, and 26 basis points from the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily due to the effect of rising interest rates on our variable rate loan portfolio. In the first quarter of 2017, the yield on PCI loans was 17.24%, compared to 37.07% in the linked quarter, and 22.67% in the prior year period, due to fewer accelerated payoffs in the quarter.

The cost of total deposits was limited to a two basis point increase from the linked quarter and a five basis point increase from the prior year quarter. However, the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased seven basis points to 0.65% in the first quarter of 2017 from 0.58% in the linked fourth quarter, and is 17 basis points higher than 0.48% in the first quarter of 2016. The increases were due to the issuance of $50 million of subordinated debt issued November 1, 2016, the acquisition of JCB, and the impact of rising interest rates on the Company's borrowed funds. 

Core net interest margin1, defined as the net interest margin (fully tax equivalent), including contractual interest on PCI loans but excluding the incremental accretion on these loans, was as follows:

Core net interest income1 increased by $5.4 million to $37.6 million, 17% compared to the linked quarter, and $8.0 million, or 27%, compared to the prior year period due to strong portfolio loan growth funded by core deposits and from the acquisition of JCB. Core net interest margin1 increased 19 basis points to 3.63% in the linked quarter primarily from the aforementioned increase in portfolio loan yield as well as controlled deposit costs. Core net interest margin expanded nine basis points from the prior year quarter, primarily due to loan growth improving the earning asset mix, combined with increased yield on portfolio loans out-pacing the increase to borrowing costs, previously discussed. Core net interest margin also increased modestly from JCB purchase accounting adjustments. The Company continues to manage its balance sheet to grow core net interest income and expects to maintain core net interest margin over the coming quarters; however, pressure on funding costs could negate the expected trends in core net interest margin.

Portfolio Loans

Note: Non-core acquired loans were those acquired from the FDIC and were previously covered by shared-loss agreements. These loans continue to be accounted for as purchased credit impaired loans. Approximately $50 million of loans in JCB's portfolio are also accounted for as purchased credit impaired loans. However, all loans acquired from JCB are included in portfolio loans.

Portfolio loans increased to $3.9 billion at March 31, 2017, increasing $735 million when compared to the linked quarter. Excluding the acquisition of JCB, portfolio loans organically grew by $56.2 million, or 7% annualized, in the first quarter of 2017. On a year over year basis, portfolio loans increased $1.0 billion, of which $342 million was organic loan growth and $678 million was from the acquisition of JCB, principally in the CRE, Construction, and land development, and Residential Real Estate categories. The Company expects continued loan growth, excluding the acquisition of JCB, at or above 10% for 2017.

The Company continues to focus on originating high-quality Commercial and Industrial ("C&I") relationships, as they typically have variable interest rates and allow for cross selling opportunities involving other banking products. C&I loans increased $141 million during the first quarter of 2017 from the linked fourth quarter and represented 46% of the Company's loan portfolio at March 31, 2017. JCB added $79 million in the current quarter, and the Company's specialized lending products, enterprise value lending, and life insurance premium finance also contributed to the growth.

Since March 31, 2016, C&I loans have grown organically by $150 million, or 9.7%. C&I loan growth supports management's efforts to maintain the Company's asset sensitive interest rate risk position. At March 31, 2017, 56% of portfolio loans had variable interest rates, as compared to 64% at December 31, 2016 and 62% at March 31, 2016. This change is due to the acquisition of JCB; however, the Company's asset sensitive interest rate risk position did not change materially as a result.

Non-Core Acquired Loans

Non-core acquired loans totaled $38.1 million at March 31, 2017, a decrease of $1.7 million, or 17% on an annualized basis, from the linked fourth quarter, and $25.4 million, or 40%, from the prior year period, primarily as a result of principal paydowns and accelerated loan payoffs.

Non-core acquired loans contributed $0.7 million of net earnings in the first quarter of 2017, compared to $2.9 million in the linked fourth quarter. At March 31, 2017, the remaining accretable yield on the portfolio was estimated to be $13 million and the non-accretable difference was approximately $18 million. Accelerated cash flows and other

incremental accretion from PCI loans was $1.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, $3.3 million for the linked quarter, and $2.8 million for the prior year quarter. The Company estimates 2017 income from accelerated cash flows and other incremental accretion to be between $5 million and $7 million.

At March 31, 2017, nonperforming loans were 0.36% of portfolio loans, and nonperforming assets were 0.33% of total assets. Nonperforming loans decreased 7% to $13.8 million at March 31, 2017, from $14.9 million at December 31, 2016, and increased 46% from $9.5 million at March 31, 2016. Other real estate balances increased $1.7 million from a property acquired with the JCB acquisition and $0.2 million from two commercial real estate properties from legacy EB&T. During the quarter ended March 31, 2017, non-performing loan activity included an additional $0.3 million added to nonperforming loans, $0.1 million of charge-offs, $0.9 million of other principal reductions, and $0.3 million in assets transferred to other real estate.

The Company recorded provision for portfolio loan losses of $1.5 million compared to $1.0 million in the linked quarter and $0.8 million in the prior year period.  The provision is reflective of growth in the portfolio, maintaining a prudent credit risk posture, as well as an increase in specific reserves on a single nonperforming relationship. Additionally, we experienced net recoveries of one basis point, annualized, during the quarter. The allowance for portfolio loan losses to portfolio loans was 1.02% at March 31, 2017, or 1.23% on a proforma basis excluding the acquisition JCB.

Total deposits at March 31, 2017 were $4.0 billion, an increase of $798 million, or 25% from December 31, 2016, and $1.1 billion, or 38%, from March 31, 2016. $774 million of the increase is attributed to the acquisition of JCB. Core deposits, defined as total deposits excluding time deposits, were $3.4 billion at March 31, 2017, an increase of $665 million, or 24% from the linked quarter, and $955 million, or 39%, when compared to the prior year period. The overall positive trends in deposits reflect continued progress across our business lines, some seasonality, and the acquisition of JCB.

Noninterest-bearing deposits increased $170 million compared to December 31, 2016, and increased $317 million compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2016. The composition of noninterest-bearing deposits remained relatively stable at 26% of total deposits at March 31, 2017, compared to December 31, 2016 and March 31, 2016. The total cost of deposits increased two basis points to 0.39% compared to 0.37% at December 31, 2016, and grew five basis points since March 31, 2016.

Noninterest Income

Total noninterest income was $7.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, including $0.7 million contribution from the acquisition of JCB.

Deposit service charges for the first quarter of 2017 of $2.5 million grew 15% when compared to the linked quarter, and grew 23% when compared to the prior year quarter, due primarily to the acquisition of JCB and growth in client base. Wealth management revenues for the first quarter of 2017 of $1.8 million grew 6% when compared to the linked fourth quarter, and grew 10% when compared to the prior year period.

Trust assets under management were $1.3 billion at March 31, 2017, an increase of $200 million, or 19%, when compared to December 31, 2016, and an increase of $402 million, or 46%, when compared to the prior year period. The increase from the linked quarter and the prior year quarter was primarily due to market appreciation, new customers, and the addition of $154 million of assets under management from JCB.

Gains from state tax credit brokerage activities were $0.2 million for the first quarter of 2017 and $1.7 million for the linked fourth quarter, and $0.5 million in the first quarter of 2016. Sales of state tax credits can vary by quarter and the decline year over year is due to a revaluation of tax credits carried at fair value as a result of changes in interest rates.

Other noninterest income increased 12% to $2.4 million compared to the linked quarter, and increased 44% from the prior year period. The increase from the linked and prior year quarter was primarily due to fees earned from certain recoveries, swap fee income, and management fees from our community development entity.

Noninterest Expenses

Noninterest expenses were $26.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, compared to $23.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, and $20.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016. Noninterest expenses for the quarter included $1.7 million of merger related expenses compared to $1.1 million in the linked fourth quarter. Core noninterest expenses1 were $24.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, compared to $21.1 million for the linked quarter, and $20.4 million for the prior year period. The increase from the linked quarter was due to adding the expense base of JCB of $3.0 million and seasonally higher payroll taxes of $0.8 million.
 
The Company's Core efficiency ratio1 increased to 56.0% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017, compared to 52.7% for the linked quarter, and 57.4% for the prior year period, and reflects a seasonal decline in noninterest income as well as the acquisition of JCB. The Company expects to achieve additional cost savings from the JCB transaction throughout 2017 and expects to continue to leverage its expense base.

Income Taxes

The Company's effective tax rate was 29.2% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 compared to 34.1% for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, and 34.8% for the quarter ended March 31, 2016. The decrease resulted primarily from recording $1.3 million in excess tax benefits from equity compensation awards.  Under a new accounting standard adopted this quarter, such benefits are recorded within income tax expense rather than directly to shareholders' equity.  Excluding the effect of this benefit, the effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2017 was 36.7%, which is reflective of certain non-deductible merger related expenses.

Capital

The total risk based capital ratio1 was 12.76% at March 31, 2017, compared to 13.48% at December 31, 2016, and 12.02% at March 31, 2016. The Company's Common equity tier 1 capital ratio1 was 9.20% at March 31, 2017, compared to 9.52% at December 31, 2016, and 9.20% at March 31, 2016. The tangible common equity ratio1 was 8.28% at March 31, 2017, versus 8.76% at December 31, 2016, and 8.87% at March 31, 2016.

The decrease in the tangible common equity ratio as compared to the linked quarter is due primarily due to the JCB acquisition. Capital ratios for the current quarter are based on the Basel III regulatory capital framework as applied to the Company’s current businesses and operations, and are subject to, among other things, completion and filing of the Company’s regulatory reports and ongoing regulatory review and implementation guidance. The attached tables contain a reconciliation of these ratios to U.S. GAAP financial measures.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures1 

The Company's accounting and reporting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and the prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, the Company provides other financial measures, such as Core net income and net interest margin, and other Core performance measures, regulatory capital ratios, and the tangible common equity ratio, in this release that are considered “non-GAAP financial measures.” Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company's financial performance, financial position, or cash flows that exclude (or include) amounts that are included in (or excluded from) the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.

The Company considers its Core performance measures presented in this earnings release and the included tables as important measures of financial performance, even though they are non-GAAP measures, as they provide supplemental information by which to evaluate the impact of non-core acquired loans and related income and expenses, the impact of certain non-comparable items, and the Company's operating performance on an ongoing basis. Core performance measures include contractual interest on non-core acquired loans, but exclude incremental accretion on these loans. Core performance measures also exclude the gain or loss on sale of other real estate from non-core acquired loans, and expenses directly related to non-core acquired loans and other assets formerly covered under FDIC loss share agreements. Core performance measures also exclude certain other income and expense items, such as executive separation costs, merger related expenses, and the gain or loss on sale of investment securities, the Company believes to be not indicative of or useful to measure the Company's operating performance on an ongoing basis. The attached tables contain a reconciliation of these Core performance measures to the GAAP measures. The Company believes that the tangible common equity ratio provides useful information to investors about the Company's capital strength even though it is considered to be a non-GAAP financial measure and is not part of the regulatory capital requirements to which the Company is subject.
The Company believes these non-GAAP measures and ratios, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP measures and ratios, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's performance and capital strength. The Company's management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to, these non-GAAP measures and ratios in assessing the Company's operating results and related trends and when forecasting future periods. However, these non-GAAP measures and ratios should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or preferable to, ratios prepared in accordance with GAAP. In the attached tables, the Company has provided a reconciliation of, where applicable, the most comparable GAAP financial measures and ratios to the non-GAAP financial measures and ratios, or a reconciliation of the non-GAAP calculation of the financial measure for the periods indicated.
