    ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Oct. 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Northrim BanCorp, Inc. (NASDAQ:NRIM) (“Northrim” or the “Company”) today reported net income of $8.4 million, or $1.48 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2023, compared to $5.6 million, or $0.98 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2023, and $10.1 million, or $1.76 per diluted share, in the third quarter a year ago. The increase in third quarter 2023 profitability as compared to the prior quarter was primarily the result of higher net interest income, a gain on an OREO sale, an increase in mortgage banking income, unrealized gains on marketable equity securities and a lower provision for credit losses compared to the preceding quarter. The decrease in profitability in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the same period a year ago was primarily due to a higher provision for credit losses due to loan growth, a decrease in mortgage banking income, higher cost of funds, and in increase in salaries and other personnel expense that was only partially offset by a gain on an OREO sale.

    Dividends per share in the third quarter remained consistent with the first and second quarters of 2023 at $0.60 per share and increased 20% from $0.50 per share in the third quarter of 2022.

    “We are pleased with our third quarter results which highlight Northrim's ability to deliver profitable growth in a variety of economic environments,” said Joe Schierhorn, President and Chief Executive Officer Northrim BanCorp, Inc. “We are particularly proud of our 8% increase in market share which is due to the hard work of the entire Northrim team and their commitment to deliver superior customer service to our customers. While challenges remain, we believe the strategies we've pursued over the past few years will continue to drive profits and expansion in our market.”

    Third Quarter 2023 Highlights:

    • Net interest income in the third quarter of 2023 increased 5% to $26.4 million compared to $25.1 million in the second quarter of 2023 and increased slightly compared to $26.3 million in the third quarter of 2022.
    • Net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis (“NIMTE”)* was 4.21% for the third quarter of 2023, unchanged from the second quarter of 2023 and a 6-basis point decrease compared to the third quarter of 2022 due primarily to a decrease in recoveries of interest income on nonaccrual loans, which was only partially offset by a favorable change in the mix of earning-assets towards higher loan balances as a percentage of total earning-assets.
    • The weighted average interest rate for new portfolio loans originated in the third quarter of 2023 was 7.39% compared to 6.93% in the second quarter of 2023 and 5.83% in the third quarter a year ago.  
    • Return on average assets (“ROAA”) was 1.22% and return on average equity (“ROAE”) was 14.67% for the third quarter of 2023.
    • Portfolio loans were $1.70 billion at September 30, 2023, up 4% from the preceding quarter and up 22% from a year ago, primarily due to new customer relationships, expanding market share and retaining certain mortgages in the loan portfolio. Approximately 74% of portfolio loans are variable and 18% of earning assets are subject to rate increases immediately when prime or other rate indices increase.
    • Opened a permanent branch in Nome, Alaska, a market with over $330 million in deposits as of June 30, 2023 according to the FDIC, with only one other bank.
    • Total deposits were $2.43 billion at September 30, 2023, up 5% from the preceding quarter, and down slightly from $2.44 billion a year ago. Non-interest bearing demand deposits increased 7% from the preceding quarter and decreased 11% year-over-year to $764.6 million at September 30, 2023 and still represent 31% of total deposits.
    • The average cost of interest-bearing deposits was 1.75% at September 30, 2023, up from 1.56% at June 30, 2023 and 0.28% at September 30, 2022.
    • Total liquid assets and investments and loans maturing within one year were $517.8 million and our funds available for borrowing under our existing lines of credit were $0.7 billion at September 30, 2023.

    Alaska Economic Update
    (Note: sources for information included in this section are included on page 12.)

    The Alaska Department of Labor ("DOL") has reported that Alaska’s seasonally adjusted unemployment rate in August of 2023 was 3.9% compared to the U.S. rate of 3.8%. The total number of payroll jobs in Alaska, not including uniformed military, increased 1.4% or 4,800 jobs between August of 2022 and August of 2023.  

    According to the DOL, Leisure and Hospitality had the largest growth in new jobs through August compared to the prior year.   The sector added 2,000 positions for a year over year growth rate of 4.8% in August of 2023. The Oil & Gas sector grew the quickest as a percentage of growth at 5.7% or 400 new jobs. Construction added 600 jobs for a 3.2% growth rate and Health Care grew 2.3% or 900 jobs between August of 2022 and August of 2023. Manufacturing decreased 2.2% or 400 jobs due to a decline in seafood processing. The Information and Financial Activities sectors both declined by 100 jobs year over year in August of 2023.

    Alaska’s Gross State Product (“GSP”) in the first quarter of 2023, was estimated to be $63.8 billion in current dollars, according to the Federal Bureau of Economic Analysis ("BEA"). Alaska’s inflation adjusted “real” GSP grew 1.6% at an annualized rate in the first quarter of 2023, compared to the average U.S. rate of 2%. Alaska’s real GSP improvement in the first quarter of 2023 was aided by gains in the Construction and Health Care sectors.

    The BEA also calculated Alaska’s seasonally adjusted personal income at $52.1 billion in the first quarter of 2023. This was an annualized improvement of 7.2% for Alaska and larger than the national average of 5.1%. Alaskans had annualized wage earnings growth of 6.6%, compared to a U.S. average of 4.6% in the first quarter of 2023.

    The monthly average price of Alaska North Slope (“ANS”) crude oil has been in a range between $75.64 and $95.05 in the first nine months of 2023. The Alaska Department of Revenue (“DOR”) calculated ANS crude oil production was 480 thousand barrels per day (“bpd”) in Alaska’s fiscal year ending June 30, 2023. The DOR has forecast production to increase to 504 thousand bpd in Alaska’s fiscal year 2024. That number is projected to grow by the DOR to 556 thousand bpd in 2028. This is primarily a result of new production coming on line in the NPR-A region west of Prudhoe Bay.   

    According to the Alaska Multiple Listing Services, the average sales price of a single family home in Anchorage rose 7.6% in 2022 to $456,544. This was the fifth consecutive year of price increases, following growth of 6.9% in 2021 and 5.8% in 2020. In the first nine months of 2023, the average sales price in Anchorage continued to increase 5.4% to $481,360.  

    Average sales prices for single family homes in the Matanuska Susitna Borough rose 9.9% in 2022 to $382,439, continuing a trend of average price increases for more than a decade. In the first nine months of 2023, the average sales price in the Matanuska Susitna Borough has increased 5.3% to $402,799. These two markets represent where the vast majority of Northrim Bank’s residential lending activity occurs.

    The Alaska Multiple Listing Services reported there were 1,616 housing units sold in Anchorage in the first nine months of 2023, compared to 2,274 through September of 2022 for a decline of 28.9%. Anchorage home sales also declined by 21.2% in 2022 compared to 2021. For the first nine months of 2023 there were 1,258 homes sales in the Matanuska Susitna Borough, compared to 1,670 through September of 2022 for a decrease of 24.7%. Matanuska Susitna Borough home sales also declined 11.9% in 2022 compared to the prior year.

    “We believe that a lack of inventory due to a reduction in the supply of new homes being constructed and a lower churn of existing homes being listed on the market are the primary reasons for the decline in sales,” explained Mark Edwards, EVP Chief Credit Officer and Bank Economist. “The limited supply of homes did not keep up with demand through the summer and therefore price increases continued. I expect demand to moderate as interest rates continue to increase and buying typically slows seasonally in the winter months,” he concluded.

    Review of Income Statement

    Consolidated Income Statement

    In the third quarter of 2023, Northrim generated a ROAA of 1.22% and a ROAE of 14.67%, compared to 0.85% and 9.85%, respectively, in the second quarter of 2023 and 1.52% and 18.18%, respectively, in the third quarter a year ago.

    Net Interest Income/Net Interest Margin

    Net interest income increased 5% to $26.4 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared to $25.1 million in the second quarter of 2023 and increased slightly compared to $26.3 million in the third quarter of 2022. Interest expense on deposits increased to $7.1 million in the third quarter compared to $6.1 million in the second quarter of 2023 and $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2022.

    NIMTE* was 4.21% in the third quarter of 2023 unchanged from 4.21% in the preceding quarter and down from 4.27% in the third quarter a year ago. NIMTE* decreased 6 basis points in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022 primarily due to a decrease in recoveries of interest income on nonaccrual loans which was only partially offset by a favorable change in the mix of earning-assets towards higher loan balances as a percentage of total earning-assets. The weighted average interest rate for new loans booked in the third quarter of 2023 was 7.39% compared to 6.93% in the second quarter of 2023 and 5.83% in the third quarter a year ago. No long-term investments were purchased during the quarter, however, the yield on the portfolio increased to 2.43% for the quarter as a result of repricing of the variable rate investments which represent 10% of the investment portfolio. “We expect our net interest margin to continue to remain relatively stable as estimated increases in earning-asset yields will likely be offset by increases in deposit rates,” said Jed Ballard, Chief Financial Officer. Northrim’s NIMTE* continues to remain above the peer average posted by the S&P U.S. Small Cap Bank Index with total market capitalization between $250 million and $1 billion as of June 30, 20231.

    Provision for Credit Losses

    Northrim recorded a provision for credit losses of $1.2 million in the third quarter of 2023, which includes a $440,000 provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments and a provision for credit losses on loans of $750,000 primarily as a result of growth in both unfunded commitments and loans. This compares to a provision for credit losses of $1.4 million in the second quarter of 2023, and the reversal of $353,000 in provision for credit losses in the third quarter a year ago. The decrease in the provision for credit losses on loans in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter is primarily due to lower loan growth during the quarter. The Company recorded a reversal of provision for credit losses in the third quarter of 2022 primarily due to the receipt of $1.3 million in net recoveries.

    Nonperforming loans, net of government guarantees, decreased during the quarter to $5.1 million at September 30, 2023, compared to $5.3 million at June 30, 2023, and $6.5 million at September 30, 2022.

    The allowance for credit losses was 326% of nonperforming loans, net of government guarantees, at the end of the third quarter of 2023, compared to 292% three months earlier and 185% a year ago.

    Other Operating Income

    In addition to home mortgage lending, Northrim has interests in other businesses that complement its core community banking activities, including purchased receivables financing and wealth management. Other operating income contributed $8.0 million, or 23% of total third quarter 2023 revenues, as compared to $7.0 million, or 22% of revenues in the second quarter of 2023, and $8.7 million, or 25% of revenues in the third quarter of 2022. The increase in other operating income in the third quarter of 2023 as compared to the preceding quarter is primarily the result of an increase in mortgage banking income due to a higher volume of mortgage activity as well as a small unrealized gain on marketable securities compared to a loss in the preceding quarter. The fair market value of marketable equity securities increased $12,000 in the third quarter of 2023 compared to a decrease of $234,000 in the prior quarter and an increase of $33,000 in the third quarter of 2022. The decrease in other operating income in the third quarter of 2023 as compared to the third quarter a year ago was due primarily to a lower volume of mortgage activity. See further discussion regarding mortgage activity during the third quarter contained under “Home Mortgage Lending” below.

     

    1As of June 30, 2023, the S&P U.S. Small Cap Bank Index tracked 243 banks with total common market capitalization between $250 million to $1B for the following ratio: NIMTE* of 3.30%.

    Other Operating Expenses

    Operating expenses were $22.9 million in the third quarter of 2023, compared to $23.8 million in the second quarter of 2023, and $22.3 million in the third quarter of 2022. The increase in other operating expenses in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022 is primarily due to increased salaries and other personnel expense which was only partially offset by a decrease in OREO expense due to a gain on sale recorded in the third quarter of 2023 for subsequent proceeds received related to a government guarantee on an OREO property sold in December 2022.

    Income Tax Provision

    In the third quarter of 2023, Northrim recorded $1.9 million in state and federal income tax expense for an effective tax rate of 18.4%, compared to $1.4 million, or 19.6% in the second quarter of 2023 and $2.9 million, or 22.4% in the third quarter a year ago. The decrease in the tax rate in the third quarter of 2023 as compared to the third quarter of 2022 is primarily the result of an increase in tax credits and tax exempt interest income as a percentage of pre-tax income in 2023 as compared to 2022.

    Community Banking

    In the most recent deposit market share data from the FDIC, Northrim’s deposit market share in Alaska increased to 15.04% of Alaska's total deposits as of June 30, 2023 compared to 13.95% of Alaska's total deposits as of June 30, 2022. This represents 7.8% growth in market share percentage for Northrim during that period while, according to the FDIC, the total deposits in Alaska were down 8.5% during the same period. Northrim opened a branch in Kodiak in the first quarter of 2023, a loan production office in Homer in the second quarter of 2023, and a permanent branch in Nome in the third quarter of 2023. See below for further discussion regarding the Company's deposit movement for the quarter.

    Net interest income in the Community Banking segment totaled $24.1 million in the third quarter of 2023, compared to $22.7 million in the second quarter of 2023 and $25.7 million in the third quarter of 2022. Net interest income increased in the third quarter of 2023 as compared to the second quarter of 2023 mostly due to higher interest income on loans due to increases in both volume and rate. These increases were only partially offset by higher interest expense on deposits and borrowings and lower interest income on short term investments.

    The following table provides highlights of the Community Banking segment of Northrim:

    Home Mortgage Lending

    During the third quarter of 2023, mortgage loans funded for sale increased to $131.9 million, of which 95% was for home purchases, compared to $113.8 million and 97% of loans funded for home purchases in the second quarter of 2023, and decreased as compared to $168.8 million, of which 93% was for home purchases in the third quarter of 2022.

    The Company has developed mortgage products including adjustable rate mortgages, a second home product, and extended locks which are intended to appeal to customers given the current interest rate environment. During the third quarter of 2023, our home mortgage lending subsidiary, Residential Mortgage originated $21.6 million in home mortgages, of which roughly half were adjustable rate mortgages and half were mortgages for second homes, that Northrim Bank purchased and booked as consumer loans at a weighted average interest rate of 6.60%, down from $55.6 million and 5.70% in the second quarter of 2023, $42.0 million and 5.11% in the first quarter of 2023, and $34.6 million and 5.52% in the fourth quarter of 2022. Total mortgage production for the third quarter of 2023 was down 9% compared to the second quarter of 2023 and down 9% compared to the third quarter a year ago. Given the seasonality of the mortgage operations, the Company usually sees an increase in production in the second quarter. Additionally, management anticipates that the volume of mortgages that Northrim Bank will purchase from Residential Mortgage will continue to decrease, as they look to sell a larger percentage of production on the secondary market going forward. Mr. Ballard noted that “purchases of mortgages by Northrim Bank was a long-term, strategic decision to deploy excess liquidity, reduce asset sensitivity, and provide products to loan originators to market for increased production in this rising interest rate environment.” Mr. Ballard added, “our target for these mortgages is approximately 10% of our loan portfolio.”

    The expansion efforts of mortgage production in the Arizona, Colorado, and Pacific Northwest markets in late 2022 contributed to 8% of Residential Mortgage's $153 million total production in the third quarter of 2023, 15% of $169 million in total production in the second quarter of 2023, and 19% of $93 million in total production in the first quarter of 2023.

    The net change in fair value of mortgage servicing rights decreased mortgage banking income by $310,000 during the third quarter of 2023 compared to a decrease of $574,000 for the second quarter of 2023 and an increase of $145,000 for the third quarter of 2022. Mortgage servicing revenue increased to $2.4 million in the third quarter of 2023 from $1.4 million in the prior quarter and from $2.1 million in the third quarter of 2022 due to higher production of Alaska Housing Finance Corporation (AHFC) mortgages which contribute to servicing revenues at origination. In the third quarter of 2023, the Company's servicing portfolio increased $78 million in new mortgage loans, net of amortization and payoffs as compared to $30 million in the second quarter of 2023 and $60 million in the third quarter of 2022.

    As of September 30, 2023, Northrim serviced 3,696 loans in its $982.1 million home-mortgage-servicing portfolio, a 7% increase compared to the $921.6 million serviced as of the end of the second quarter of 2023, and a 14% increase from the $859.3 million serviced a year ago. Delinquencies in the loan servicing portfolio totaled 3.2% at September 30, 2023, compared to 1.1% at September 30, 2022.

    Balance Sheet Review

    Northrim’s total assets were $2.79 billion at September 30, 2023, up 6% from the preceding quarter and 3% from a year ago. Northrim’s loan-to-deposit ratio was 71% at September 30, 2023, down slightly from 72% at June 30, 2023, and up from 58% at September 30, 2022.

    At September 30, 2023, our liquid assets and investments and loans maturing within one year were $517.8 million and our funds available for borrowing under our existing lines of credit were $0.7 billion. Given these sources of liquidity and our expectations for customer demands for cash and for our operating cash needs, we believe our sources of liquidity to be sufficient for the foreseeable future.

    Average interest-earning assets were $2.52 billion in the third quarter of 2023, up 3% from $2.43 billion in the second quarter of 2023 and up 2% from $2.47 billion in the third quarter a year ago. The average yield on interest-earning assets was 5.48% in the third quarter of 2023, up from 5.31% in the preceding quarter and 4.47% in the third quarter a year ago.

    Average investment securities decreased to $715.8 million in the third quarter of 2023, compared to $727.8 million in the second quarter of 2023 and increased compared to $678.6 million in the third quarter a year ago. The average net tax equivalent yield on the securities portfolio was 2.43% for the third quarter of 2023, up from 2.40% in the preceding quarter and up from 1.98% in the year ago quarter. The average estimated duration of the investment portfolio at September 30, 2023, was approximately 2.8 years compared to approximately 3.5 years at September 30, 2022. As of September 30, 2023, $87.7 million of available for sale securities are scheduled to mature in the next six months, $47.4 million are scheduled to mature in six months to one year, and $173.9 million are scheduled to mature in the following year, representing a total of $309.0 million or 12% of earning assets that are scheduled to mature in the next 24 months.

    Total unrealized losses, net of tax, on available for sale securities decreased by $944,000 in the third quarter of 2023 resulting in total unrealized loss, net of tax, of $26.5 million compared to $27.5 million at June 30, 2023, and $32.4 million a year ago. The average maturity of the available for sale securities with the majority of the unrealized loss is 1.9 years. Total unrealized losses on held to maturity securities were $4.5 million at September 30, 2023, compared to $4.2 million at June 30, 2023, and $5.1 million a year ago.

    Average interest bearing deposits in other banks decreased to $42.3 million in the third quarter from $66.1 million in the second quarter of 2023 and $324.3 million in the third quarter of 2022 as cash was used to fund the growing loan portfolio.

    Portfolio loans were $1.72 billion at September 30, 2023, up 4% from the preceding quarter and up 22% from a year ago. Portfolio loans, excluding consumer mortgage loans, increased by 3% or $42.9 million to $1.56 billion from the preceding quarter and were up 13% from a year ago. Average portfolio loans in the third quarter of 2023 were $1.70 billion, which was up 6% from the preceding quarter and up 20% from a year ago. Yields on average portfolio loans in the third quarter of 2023 increased to 6.61% from 6.48% in the second quarter of 2023 and increased from 6.05% in the third quarter of 2022. The increase in the yield on portfolio loans in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2023 and the third quarter a year ago is primarily due to loan repricing due to the increases in interest rates and new loans booked at higher rates due to changes in the interest rate environment. The yield on average portfolio loans, excluding consumer mortgage loans, was 7.98% in the third quarter of 2023 as compared to 7.70% in the second quarter of 2023 and 5.94% in the third quarter of 2022. 33% of loans mature or reprice in the next three months, 12% of loans mature or reprice in three to twelve months, and 17% of loans mature or reprice in one to two years.

    Alaskans continue to account for substantially all of Northrim’s deposit base. Total deposits were $2.43 billion at September 30, 2023, up 5% from $2.30 billion at June 30, 2023, and down slightly from $2.44 billion a year ago. At September 30, 2023, 71% of total deposits were held in business accounts and 29% of deposit balances were held in consumer accounts. Northrim had approximately 33,000 deposit customers with an average balance of $73,000 as of September 30, 2023. Northrim had 16 customers with balances over $10 million as of September 30, 2023, which accounted for $370.6 million, or 15%, of total deposits. Of these $370.6 million of deposits, approximately 32% are insured using ICS or CDARS and an additional 28% are long-term customers with whom Northrim has significant lending relationships. ICS and CDARS deposits are divided into amounts under the FDIC insurance maximum and allocated among member banks, making the large deposit eligible for FDIC insurance. Demand deposits increased by 7% from the prior quarter and decreased 11% year-over-year to $764.6 million at September 30, 2023. Demand deposits remained consistent at 31% of total deposits at September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 and decreased from 35% of total deposits at September 30, 2022. Average interest-bearing deposits were up 3% to $1.62 billion with an average cost of 1.75% in the third quarter of 2023, compared to $1.57 billion and an average cost of 1.56% in the second quarter of 2023, and up 7% compared to $1.52 billion and an average cost of 0.28% in the third quarter of 2022. Uninsured deposits totaled $999.5 million or 41% of total deposits as of September 30, 2023 compared to $1.1 billion or 46% of total deposits as of December 31, 2022. As interest rates continued to increase in the first nine months of 2023, Northrim has taken a proactive, targeted approach to increase deposit rates.

    Shareholders’ equity was $225.3 million, or $40.60 book value per share, at September 30, 2023, compared to $221.3 million, or $39.45 book value per share, at June 30, 2023 and $210.7 million, or $37.09 book value per share, a year ago. Tangible book value per share* was $37.72 at September 30, 2023, compared to $36.60 at June 30, 2023, and $34.27 per share a year ago. The increase in shareholders’ equity in the third quarter of 2023 as compared to the second quarter of 2023 was largely the result of earnings of $8.4 million and an increase in the fair value of the available for sale securities portfolio, which increased $944,000, net of tax, which were only partially offset by dividends paid of $3.4 million and repurchases of common stock of $2.7 million. The Company purchased 63,000 shares of common stock in the third quarter of 2023 at an average cost of $43.03 per share and has 132,113 shares remaining under the current share repurchase program as of September 30, 2023. Tangible common equity to tangible assets* was 7.54% as of September 30, 2023. Tangible common equity to tangible common assets, excluding the impact of the fair value of the available for sale securities portfolio*, was 8.42% as of September 30, 2023, compared to 8.79% as of June 30, 2023 and 8.31% as of September 30, 2022. Northrim continues to maintain capital levels in excess of the requirements to be categorized as “well-capitalized” with Tier 1 Capital to Risk Adjusted Assets of 11.67% at September 30, 2023, compared to 12.13% at June 30, 2023, and 12.98% at September 30, 2022.

    Asset Quality

    Northrim believes it has a consistent lending approach throughout the economic cycles, which emphasizes appropriate loan-to-value ratios, adequate debt coverage ratios, and competent management.

    Nonperforming assets (“NPAs”) net of government guarantees were $5.2 million at September 30, 2023, down from $5.6 million at June 30, 2023 and down from $10.8 million a year ago. Of the NPAs at September 30, 2023, $3.8 million, or 73% are nonaccrual loans related to three commercial relationships.

    Net adversely classified loans were $7.3 million at September 30, 2023, as compared to $6.9 million at June 30, 2023, and $7.6 million a year ago. Adversely classified loans are loans that Northrim has classified as substandard, doubtful, and loss, net of government guarantees. Net loan recoveries were $96,000 in the third quarter of 2023, compared to net loan charge-offs of $22,000 in the second quarter of 2023, and net loan recoveries of $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2022.

    The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2022-02, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures ("ASU 2022-02") on January 1, 2023. The amendments in ASU 2022-02 eliminate the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan modifications by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. Northrim had eight loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty totaling $5.5 million, net of government guarantees in the third quarter of 2023.

    Northrim had $124.3 million, or 7% of portfolio loans, in the Healthcare sector, $103.0 million, or 6% of portfolio loans, in the Tourism sector, $79.6 million, or 5% of portfolio loans, in the Accommodations sector, $78.3 million, or 5% of portfolio loans, in the Fishing sector, $71.8 million, or 4% of portfolio loans, in the Retail sector, $62.5 million, or 4% of portfolio loans, in the Aviation (non-tourism) sector, and $48.4 million, or 3% in the Restaurants and Breweries sector as of September 30, 2023.

    Northrim estimates that $100.3 million, or approximately 6% of portfolio loans, had direct exposure to the oil and gas industry in Alaska, as of September 30, 2023, and $2.2 million of these loans are adversely classified. As of September 30, 2023, Northrim has an additional $34.9 million in unfunded commitments to companies with direct exposure to the oil and gas industry in Alaska, and no unfunded commitments on adversely classified loans. Northrim defines direct exposure to the oil and gas sector as loans to borrowers that provide oilfield services and other companies that have been identified as significantly reliant upon activity in Alaska related to the oil and gas industry, such as lodging, equipment rental, transportation and other logistics services specific to this industry.

    Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although we believe these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by stakeholders in the evaluation of the Company, they have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results as reported under GAAP.

    Net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis

    Net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis (“NIMTE”) is a non-GAAP performance measurement in which interest income on non-taxable investments and loans is presented on a tax equivalent basis using a combined federal and state statutory rate of 28.43% in both 2023 and 2022. The most comparable GAAP measure is net interest margin and the following table sets forth the reconciliation of NIMTE to net interest margin.

    Tangible Common Equity to Tangible Assets, excluding the fair value of the available for sale securities portfolio

    Tangible common equity to tangible assets, excluding the fair value of the available for sale securities portfolio, is a non-GAAP ratio that represents total equity less goodwill and intangible assets and the unrealized gain (loss) on available for sale securities, net of income taxes divided by total assets less goodwill and intangible assets and the unrealized gain (loss) on available for sale securities, net of income taxes. The most comparable GAAP measure of shareholders' equity to total assets is calculated by dividing total shareholders' equity by total assets and the following table sets forth the reconciliation of tangible common equity to tangible assets, excluding the fair value of the available for sale securities portfolio, and shareholders' equity to total assets.
