FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Bank7 Corp. Announces Record 4Q and Full Year 2018 Earnings

Oklahoma City, OK, January 30, 2019 – Bank7 Corp. (NASDAQ: BSVN) ("the Company"), the parent company of Oklahoma City-based Bank7 (the "Bank"), today reported unaudited results for the fiscal quarter and year ended December 31, 2018. "We are pleased to announce record pre-tax income for our 4Q and also for our full year results. Our 4Q and YTD results show continued balance sheet growth, especially in our core deposits. That growth, combined with our excellent efficiency ratio and asset quality, continues to produce outstanding return on average assets and return on average tangible common equity,” said Thomas L. Travis, President and CEO of the Company.

Three months ended December 31, 2018 compared to three months ended December 31, 2017:

Pre-tax income of $6.8 million, a 47.83% increase

Adjusted income of $5.9 million, a 138.55% increase

Diluted earnings per share of $0.57, a 68.42% increase

Interest income on loans, including loan fee income, totaled $11.8 million, a 25.43% increase

Average loans of $600.4 million, a 9.29% increase

Net interest margin, excluding loan fee income, of 4.85%, a 34 basis point increase

Adjusted return on average assets of 3.05%, a 162 basis point increase

Adjusted return on average tangible common equity of 27.38%, a 1,295 basis point increase

Twelve months ended December 31, 2018 compared to twelve months ended December 31, 2017

Pre-tax income of $25.8 million, an 8.44% increase

Adjusted income of $20.1 million, a 40.60% increase

Diluted earnings per share of $2.44, a 24.37% increase

Interest income on loans, including loan fee income, totaled $44.3 million, a 6.83% increase

Average loans of $583.8 million, an 8.30% increase

Core deposits of $615.9 million, a 27.22% increase

Net interest margin, excluding loan fee income, of 4.78%, a 19 basis point increase

Efficiency ratio of 37.04%, compared to 37.24%

Adjusted return on average assets of 2.75%, a 58 basis point increase

Adjusted return on average tangible common equity of 25.69%, a 322 basis point increase

Our results for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2018 were positively impacted by a decrease in the federal tax rate to 21%, from 35%, as a result of the passing of the Tax Cuts and Jobs act at the end of 2017. 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. At December 31, 2018 the Tier 1 leverage ratio, common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, Tier 1 risk based capital ratio, and total risk-based capital ratios were 11.26%, 14.78%, 14.78%, and 16.03% respectively for the Bank. At December 31, 2018 the Tier 1 leverage ratio, common equity Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, Tier 1 risk based capital ratio, and total risk-based capital ratios were 11.13%, 14.61%, 14.61%, and 15.86% respectively for the Company on a consolidated basis. Designation as a well-capitalized institution under regulations does not constitute a recommendation or endorsement by bank regulators.

Pre-tax, pre-provision net income 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, which some investors may consider to be a more appropriate comparison given our S Corporation status prior to September 2018. We calculate our adjusted net income, return on average assets, return on average equity, and per share amounts by using a combined C Corporation effective tax rate for federal and state income taxes of 22.2% in 2018 and 40.0% in 2017. This calculation illustrates only the change from our status as a S Corporation into a C Corporation and does not give effect to any other transaction. However, 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:

Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Information

This communication contains a number of forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements reflect Bank7 Corp.’s current views with respect to, among other things, future events and Bank7 Corp.’s financial performance. Any statements about Bank7 Corp.’s expectations, beliefs, plans, predictions, forecasts, objectives, assumptions or future events or performance are not historical facts and may be forward-looking. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “believes,” “can,” “could,” “may,” “predicts,” “potential,” “should,” “will,” “estimate,” “plans,” “projects,” “continuing,” “ongoing,” “expects,” “intends” and similar words or phrases. Any or all of the forward-looking statements in (or conveyed orally regarding) this presentation may turn out to be inaccurate. The inclusion of or reference to forward-looking information in this presentation should not be regarded as a representation by Bank7 Corp. or any other person that the future plans, estimates or expectations contemplated by Bank7 Corp. will be achieved.

These forward-looking statements are subject to significant uncertainties because they are based upon: the amount and timing of future changes in interest rates, market behavior, and other economic conditions; future laws, regulations, and accounting principles; changes in regulatory standards and examination policies, and a variety of other matters. These other matters include, among other things, the direct and indirect effect of economic conditions on interest rates, credit quality, loan demand, liquidity, and monetary and supervisory policies of banking regulators. Bank7 Corp. has based these forward-looking statements largely on its current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that Bank7 Corp. believes may affect its financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. Bank7 Corp.’s actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in such forward-looking statements as a result of risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if Bank7 Corp.’s underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from what Bank7 Corp. anticipates. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made and Bank7 Corp. undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as may be required by law. All forward-looking statements herein are qualified by these cautionary statements.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This communication includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted return on average assets and 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.
