First Guaranty Bancshares, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2023 Results

Hammond, Louisiana, October 27, 2023 – First Guaranty Bancshares, Inc. ("First Guaranty") (NASDAQ: FGBI), the holding company for First Guaranty Bank, announced its unaudited financial results for the quarter ending September 30, 2023.

We are making progress. In a time in which all banks have been battling the squeeze between loan interest rates and the rates to be paid for deposits, it appears that, in the second half of the third quarter, we passed the bottom and began to climb upward. Our loan portfolio before unearned income continued to grow as it grew to $2,707,669,000 as of September 30, 2023 compared to $2,599,099,000 as of June 30, 3023 and $2,526,720,000 as of December 31, 2022. Total interest income for the quarter ending September 30, 2023 was $47,627,000 compared to $43,781,000 for the quarter ending June 30, 2023 and $41,287,000 for the quarter ending March 31, 2023 and $38,307,000 for the quarter ending December 31, 2022. Our total non-interest expense for the quarter ending September 30, 2023 was $19,996,000 compared to $19,735,000 for quarter ending June 30, 2023 and $20,166,000 for quarter ending March 31, 2023.

We are making progress. This is not to say that the struggles are over. Our entire staff has reacted positively and strongly to reduce expenses. Everyone involved in Loan Production, Credit, and Loan Processing has been and continues to work very diligently to obtain new loans and get them expedited, approved, and earning.

We appreciate the patience and understanding of our shareholders. We are making progress. We will prevail and continue to build First Guaranty into a profitable investment with a fortress balance sheet.

Sincerely,

Alton B. Lewis
President and CEO

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
 
Our accounting and reporting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, and the prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, we also evaluate our performance based on certain additional metrics. Tangible book value per share and the ratio of tangible equity to tangible assets are not financial measures recognized under GAAP and, therefore, are considered non-GAAP financial measures.
 
Our management, banking regulators, many financial analysts and other investors use these non-GAAP financial measures to compare the capital adequacy of banking organizations with significant amounts of preferred equity and/or goodwill or other intangible assets, which typically stem from the use of the purchase accounting method of accounting for mergers and acquisitions. Tangible equity, tangible assets, tangible book value per share or related measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for total shareholders' equity, total assets, book value per share or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which we calculate tangible equity, tangible assets, tangible book value per share and any other related measures may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.
 
The following table reconciles, as of the dates set forth below, shareholders' equity (on a GAAP basis) to tangible equity and total assets (on a GAAP basis) to tangible assets and calculates our tangible book value per share.
