FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Bank7 Corp. Announces 1Q 2021 Earnings

Oklahoma City, OK, April 29, 2021 – Bank7 Corp. (NASDAQ: BSVN) ("the Company"), the parent company of Oklahoma City-based Bank7 (the "Bank"), today reported unaudited results for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2021.  “We continue to perform at a very high level, as evidenced by our 1Q annualized PPE record pace.  Our capital ratios remain strong, and we have confidence in our asset quality and liquidity components. Our region has weathered the pandemic-induced stress to the economy, and businesses across virtually all sectors are rapidly expanding and growing.  We remain confident about 2021 and beyond, and intend to capitalize on the many opportunities we have,” said Thomas L. Travis, President and CEO of the Company.

Three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to three months ended March 31, 2020:

Both the Bank’s and the Company’s capital levels continue to be significantly above the minimum levels required to be designated as “well-capitalized” for regulatory purposes.  On March 31, 2021, the Bank’s Tier 1 leverage ratio, Tier 1 risk based capital ratio, and total risk-based capital ratios were 11.23%, 14.10%, and 15.35%, respectively.  On March 31, 2021, on a consolidated basis, the Company’s Tier 1 leverage ratio, Tier 1 risk based capital ratio, and total risk-based capital ratios were 11.23%, 14.09%, and 15.34%, respectively.  Designation as a well-capitalized institution under regulations does not constitute a recommendation or endorsement by bank regulators.

 

Pre-tax, pre-provision earnings is defined as income before taxes and provision for loan losses.  We believe the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is income before taxes.  Disclosure of this measure enables you to compare our operations to those of other banking companies before consideration of taxes and provision expense.  We calculate our tax-adjusted net income, return on average assets, and return on average equity, and per share amounts by using a combined effective tax rate for federal and state income taxes of 25.3% in the first quarter of both 2021 and 2020.  We acknowledge that our non-GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations.  As such, you should not view these disclosures as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, and they are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP financial measures that other banking companies use.  Other banking companies may use names similar to those we use for non-GAAP financial measures we disclose, but may calculate them differently.  You should understand how we and other companies each calculate their non-GAAP financial measures when making comparisons.  The following reconciliation table provides a more detailed analysis of these non-GAAP financial measures:

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This communication includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including tax-adjusted net income, tax-adjusted earnings per share, tax-adjusted return on average assets and tax-adjusted return on average shareholders’ equity. These non-GAAP financial measures and any other non-GAAP financial measures that we discuss in this presentation should not be considered in isolation, and should be considered as additions to, and not substitutes for or superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are a number of limitations related to the use of these non-GAAP financial measures versus their nearest GAAP equivalents. For example, other companies may calculate non-GAAP financial measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of Bank7 Corp.’s non-GAAP financial measures as tools for comparison. See the table above in this communication for a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used in (or conveyed orally during) this communication to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
