Exhibit 99.1
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – July 27, 2023
Carter Bankshares, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2023 Financial Results
Martinsville, VA, July 27, 2023 – Carter Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ:CARE), the holding company of Carter Bank & Trust (the “Bank”) today announced quarterly net income of $5.7 million, or $0.24 diluted earnings per share (“EPS”), for the second quarter of 2023 compared to net income of $15.9 million, or $0.67 diluted EPS, in the first quarter of 2023 and net income of $10.8 million, or $0.44 diluted EPS, for the second quarter of 2022. The pre-tax pre-provision income1 was $6.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, $21.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 and $14.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, net income was $21.6 million, or $0.91 diluted EPS, compared to net income of $20.1 million, or $0.80 diluted EPS for the same period in 2022. Pre-tax pre-provision earnings1 were $28.1 million and $25.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
The Company’s financial results for the second quarter of 2023, compared to the prior quarter and the prior year quarter, were significantly impacted by placing loans contained in the Bank’s Other segment with an aggregate principal value of $301.9 million on nonaccrual status which had a $11.3 million negative impact on interest income for the second quarter of 2023.
Financial Highlights for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2023
Quarterly and year-to-date net income of $5.7 million, or $0.24 diluted EPS and $21.6 million, or $0.91 diluted EPS, respectively;
Annualized quarterly return on average assets (“ROA”) of 0.52% and annualized quarterly return on average equity (“ROE”) of 6.38% and annualized year-to-date ROA and ROE of 1.01% and 12.45%, respectively;
Net interest income, decreased $14.1 million, or 34.5%, to $26.7 million compared to the first quarter of 2023 primarily due to a 92 basis point decrease in the yield on earning assets, and by a 66 basis point increase in funding costs and compared to the second quarter of 2022 decreased $5.7 million, or 17.7% primarily due to a 42 basis point increase in earning assets and by a 149 basis point increase in funding costs;
Net interest margin decreased 144 basis points to 2.51% compared to the first quarter of 2023, and decreased 73 basis points compared to the second quarter of 2022. Net interest margin, on an FTE basis3, decreased 144 basis points to 2.54% compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2023 and decreased 73 basis points compared to the second quarter of 2022.
Total portfolio loans increased $81.5 million, or 10.1%, on an annualized basis, to $3.3 billion at June 30, 2023 compared to March 31, 2023 and increased $332.5 million compared to June 30, 2022;
Total deposits increased $43.6 million, or 1.2%, compared to March 31, 2023 and decreased $176.4 million, or 4.7%, compared to June 30, 2022;
Nonperforming loans to total portfolio loans were 9.33%, 0.26% and 0.40% for the quarters ended June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively;
Total shareholders’ equity decreased $10.6 million from March 31, 2023;



2
The allowance for credit losses to portfolio loans were 2.83%, 2.91% and 3.27% at June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively;
The efficiency ratio was 80.5%, 51.8% and 61.5%, and the core efficiency ratio4 was 79.8%, 51.2%, and 61.3% for the quarters ended June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively.
“Obviously we are disappointed with the negative impact to our financial results of placing our largest lending relationship into nonaccrual status due to loan maturities and failure to pay in full during the second quarter. However, aside from the impact of this one lending relationship, our financial performance for the quarter was solid. Also, this large lending relationship is well secured based on the net carrying value of the credit relationship and we are pursuing all remedies to resolve this in a manner that best protects the Company and its shareholders.
We expect that the Company’s net interest margin will return to a more normalized level once this matter is resolved. Our balance sheet continues to be asset sensitive, with a large portion of floating rate loans and securities benefiting from higher interest rates. On the deposit side, we are seeing mounting pressure on funding costs and expect that trend will continue to affect our margin in the coming quarters. We do believe that continued positive trends in loan growth and expense control will help support earnings in the near term. During the second quarter, loans grew by an annualized rate of 10.1%. Lending pipelines are beginning to show signs of slowing, but we are still pursuing high quality deals and adhering to our conservative credit underwriting guidelines,” stated Litz H. Van Dyke, Chief Executive Officer.
Van Dyke continued, “I want to assure our investors, our customers and the market that our Company continues to be financially sound with strong capital, liquidity levels and a high level of allowance for credit losses, all of which position us for continued prosperity. Additionally, we believe our balance sheet structure will allow us to effectively manage our capital and liquidity levels through any industry or economic challenges that may emerge in the coming quarters. Lastly, I want to reiterate that we are pursuing all remedies to resolve the Company’s nonaccrual loans in a manner that best protects the Company and its shareholders.”
Operating Highlights
Credit Quality
Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total portfolio loans were 9.33%, 0.26% and 0.40% as of June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. At June 30, 2023 nonperforming loans increased $302.4 million to $310.7 million since March 31, 2023.
During the second quarter of 2023, the Company placed commercial loans in the Other segment of the Company’s loan portfolio, relating to the Bank’s largest lending relationship which has an aggregate principal amount of $301.9 million, on nonaccrual status due to loan maturities and failure to pay in full during the second quarter of 2023. This relationship comprises 97.2% of nonperforming loans to total loans at June 30, 2023. The Company has initiated collection processes with respect to such loans and intends to explore all alternatives for repayment. The Company believes it is well secured based on the net carrying value of the credit relationship and appropriately reserved for potential losses with respect to all such loans based on information currently available. However, we cannot give any assurance as to the timing or amount of future payments or collections on such loans. The Company has established specific reserves of $53.6 million at June 30, 2023.
The provision for credit losses decreased $1.3 million and $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2023 and the second quarter of 2022, respectively. The decrease in the provision for credit losses was primarily driven by the release of specific reserves on three loans, offset by loan growth and increased reserves due to the above mentioned large nonaccrual lending relationship. The provision for unfunded commitments in the second quarter of 2023 was $0.4 million compared to a provision of $0.1 million in the first quarter of 2023 and a provision of $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2022.



3
The provision for credit losses decreased $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due to substantially the same factors as discussed in the paragraph above. The provision for unfunded commitments for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $0.4 million compared to $32.8 thousand for the same period in 2022.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income decreased $14.1 million, or 34.5%, to $26.7 million compared to the first quarter of 2023 and decreased $5.7 million, or 17.7%, compared to the second quarter of 2022. The net interest margin decreased 144 basis points to 2.51% compared to the first quarter of 2023, and decreased 73 basis points compared to the second quarter of 2022. Net interest margin, on an FTE basis, decreased 144 basis points to 2.54% compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2023 and decreased 73 basis points compared to the second quarter of 2022. The yield on interest-earning assets decreased 92 basis points and increased 42 basis points compared to the quarters ended March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively.
The decline in interest income during the second quarter of 2023 was primarily due to a $11.3 million negative impact on interest income for the above referenced large nonaccrual lending relationship that was placed in nonaccrual status during the second quarter of 2023. This nonperforming relationship drove a 105 basis point decline in the yield on the loan portfolio, which was offset in part by increases in the yield on other earning assets of 13 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2023.
Interest expense increased $5.8 million, or 52.2%, for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2023 and increased $12.5 million, or 277.7%, as compared to the second quarter of 2022. Funding costs increased 66 basis points compared to the previous quarter and increased 149 basis points compared to the same quarter of 2022. The increase in interest expense is due to the rising interest rate environment and customers migrating from lower-cost non-maturing deposits to higher-yielding certificate of deposit (“CD”) products.
Net interest income increased $6.8 million, or 11.2%, to $67.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The net interest margin increased 16 basis points to 3.22% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 3.06% for the same period in 2022. Net interest margin, on an FTE basis3, increased 16 basis points to 3.25% for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 3.09% for the same period in 2022. The yield on interest-earning assets increased 105 basis points and funding costs increased 115 basis points for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022.
Interest expense increased $19.2 million, or 214.5%, to $28.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. Total interest-bearing liabilities increased 115 basis points compared to the same period of 2022. The increase in interest expense is due to the rising rate environment, the shift to higher cost borrowings to fund loan growth due to the decline in deposits and customers migrating from lower-cost non-maturing deposits to higher-yielding CD products.
Since the first quarter of 2023, there has been more pressure on our cost of funds due to the shift from non-maturing deposits to higher yielding certificates of deposits and higher-cost borrowings, which has negatively impacted our net interest margin. We expect this shift to continue to impact the third and fourth quarters of 2023 given the high interest rate environment. Positively impacting the second quarter of 2023 was the asset sensitivity of our balance sheet. Yields on a large portion of our loan and securities portfolios adjust as rates increase. This positively impacts revenue and helps offset increased funding costs.

Noninterest Income
For the second quarter of 2023, total noninterest income was $5.0 million, an increase of $0.3 million, or 6.2%, from the first quarter of 2023 and a decrease of $0.6 million, or 10.3%, compared to the second quarter of 2022.
The increase of $0.3 million in noninterest income compared to the first quarter of 2023 primarily related to increases of $0.3 million in insurance commissions and a $0.3 million increase in the other noninterest income, offset by a $0.2 million decline in debit card interchange fees and a $0.1 million decline in commercial loan swap income. The increase in insurance commissions was due to increased customer activity and the increase in other noninterest income related to a $0.2 million net gain on a venture capital investment. The decrease in debit card interchange fees of $0.2 million was due to an annual program incentive in the first quarter of 2023 and the decrease in commercial loan swap fee income is related to the timing and demand for this product in the changing interest rate environment.
As compared to the second quarter of 2022 the decrease of $0.6 million in noninterest income was primarily related to $0.8 million in commercial loan swap fee income due to the changing interest rate environment, offset by $0.2 million within other noninterest income due to the previously mentioned $0.2 million net investment gain.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, total noninterest income was $9.8 million, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 10.8%, from the same period in 2022 primarily due to a decrease of $0.6 million in commercial loan swap fee income due to the changing interest rate environment, a decrease of $0.3 million related to losses on sales and write-downs of bank premises, net, a $0.2 million decline in insurance commissions and a decrease of $0.1 million in other noninterest income. These decreases were offset by an increase of $0.3 million in debit card interchange fees.
Noninterest Expense
For the second quarter of 2023, total noninterest expense was $25.5 million, an increase of $2.0 million, or 8.3%, from the first quarter of 2023 and an increase of $2.1 million, or 9.1% from the second quarter of 2022.
The most significant variances compared to the first quarter of 2023 included higher professional and legal fees of $0.8 million during the quarter and minimal additional expenses in the aggregate of $0.8 million incurred in the following categories: data processing expenses, debit card expenses and occupancy expenses, net.
The most significant variances for the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022 related to increases of $1.2 million in salaries and employee benefits, $0.5 million in professional and legal fees, as well as additional expenses of $0.8 million incurred in the aggregate within occupancy expenses, net, data processing expenses, advertising expenses and debit card expenses. These increases were offset by the decrease of $0.6 million in tax credit amortization.
Salaries and employee benefits increased primarily due to $1.0 million higher base salaries, higher medical claims of $0.5 million, increased incentive bonuses of $0.2 million and higher restricted stock expense of $0.1 million all during the second quarter of 2023, offset during the quarter by a decrease in management incentives and lower profit sharing expenses of $0.6 million. The decline in tax credit amortization of $0.6 million is due to the early adoption of ASU 2023-02 Investments Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Accounting for Investments in Tax Credit Structures Using the Proportional Amortization Method. Under the proportional amortization modified retrospective basis, the amortization of tax credit investments is recorded as a component of income tax expense instead of through noninterest expense as previously recorded in 2022.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, total noninterest expense was $49.1 million, an increase of $3.2 million, or 6.9%, from the same period in 2022 primarily due to higher salaries and employee benefits of $3.1 million, increased occupancy expenses of $0.4 million, increased FDIC insurance expenses of $0.3 million, higher advertising expenses of $0.3 million and an increase of $0.4 million in other noninterest expense. Offsetting these



5
increases, similar to the quarterly variance, was a decline in tax credit amortization of $1.2 million due to the early adoption of ASU 2023-02. The increase in salaries and employee benefits was primarily related to higher salary expense due to fewer open positions in retail, job grade assessment increases, normal merit increases and higher commercial loan incentives in 2023. The increase in FDIC insurance expenses was due to a final rule adopted by the FDIC to all insured depository institutions, to increase initial base deposit insurance assessment rate schedules uniformly by two basis points, beginning in the first quarterly assessment period of 2023.
Financial Condition
Total assets were generally consistent at $4.4 billion at both June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, increasing $18.4 million during the second quarter of 2023. Total portfolio loans increased $81.5 million, or 10.1%, on an annualized basis, to $3.3 billion at June 30, 2023 compared to $3.2 billion at March 31, 2023 primarily due to loan growth in commercial real estate (“CRE”) and residential mortgage segments. The securities portfolio decreased $41.5 million and is currently 18.7% of total assets at June 30, 2023 compared to 19.8% of total assets at March 31, 2023. The decrease is due to $29.2 million in security sales, curtailments and maturities deployed into higher yielding loan growth during the three months ended June 30, 2023. Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) stock, at cost, decreased $1.2 million to $19.4 million at June 30, 2023 compared to $20.6 million at March 31, 2023.
Total deposits increased $43.6 million to $3.6 billion at June 30, 2023 as compared to $3.5 billion at March 31, 2023 due to an increase of $144.1 million in CDs, offset by a total decrease of $100.5 million in core deposits. The decreases in core deposits compared to last quarter included decreases of $80.4 million in savings accounts, $10.8 million in interest-bearing demand accounts, $8.1 million in money market accounts and $1.2 million in noninterest-bearing demand accounts. The primary driver of the decreases in core deposits was due to customers migrating to higher-yielding CD products.
At June 30, 2023, noninterest-bearing deposits comprised 19.2% compared to 19.5% and 18.8% of total deposits at March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. CDs comprised 40.6%, 37.0% and 33.6% of total deposits at June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. As of June 30, 2023, approximately 88.3% of our total deposits of $3.6 billion were insured under standard FDIC insurance coverage limits, and approximately 11.7% of our total deposits were uninsured deposits over the standard FDIC insurance coverage limit. As of March 31, 2023, approximately 87.6% of our total deposits of $3.5 billion were insured under standard FDIC insurance coverage limits, and approximately 12.4% of our total deposits were uninsured deposits over the standard FDIC insurance coverage limit.
FHLB borrowings decreased $28.0 million to $407.1 million at June 30, 2023 compared to $435.1 million at March 31, 2023 primarily due to the $43.6 million increase in deposits.
Capitalization and Liquidity
The Company remained well capitalized as of June 30, 2023. The Company’s Tier 1 Capital ratio was 11.46% at June 30, 2023 compared to 12.28% at March 31, 2023. The Company’s leverage ratio was 10.02% at June 30, 2023 compared to 10.09% at March 31, 2023. The Company’s Total Risk-Based Capital ratio was 12.72% at June 30, 2023 compared to 13.54% at March 31, 2023.
The Bank also remained well capitalized as of June 30, 2023. The Bank’s Tier 1 Capital ratio was 11.34% at June 30, 2023 compared to 12.15% at March 31, 2023. The Bank’s leverage ratio was 9.76% at June 30, 2023 compared to 9.98% at March 31, 2023. The Bank’s Total Risk-Based Capital ratio was 12.60% at June 30, 2023 compared to 13.42% at March 31, 2023.
Total capital of $344.2 million at June 30, 2023, reflects a decrease of $10.6 million as compared to March 31, 2023. The decrease in equity during the quarter ended June 30, 2023 is primarily due to $8.2 million related to the repurchase of common stock during the second quarter, a $8.6 million decrease in other comprehensive income



6
due to changes in fair value of investment securities offset by net income of $5.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and the transitional adjustment of $0.1 million, net of tax for the adoption of ASU 2023-02. The remaining difference of $0.4 million is related to restricted stock activity for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.
At June 30, 2023, funding sources accessible to the Company include borrowing availability at the FHLB, equal to 25.0% of the Company’s assets or approximately $1.1 billion, subject to the amount of eligible collateral pledged, of which the Company is eligible to borrow up to an additional $508.4 million. The Company has federal funds unsecured lines with six other correspondent financial institutions totaling $145.0 million with an availability of $137.1 million and access to the institutional CD market. The Company borrowed $7.9 million on these lines as of June 30, 2023. In addition to the above funding resources, the Company also has $602.7 million unpledged available-for-sale investment securities, at fair value, as an additional source of liquidity.
As of the date of this earning release, the Company has approximately $322.3 million in par value of securities that are eligible to be pledged under the Bank Term Funding Program (“BTFP”), but the Bank has not borrowed under or otherwise accessed the BTFP.
