Guaranty Bancshares, Inc. (NYSE:GNTY) (the "Company," "we," "us," or "our"), the parent company of Guaranty Bank & Trust, N.A. (the "Bank"), today reported financial results for the fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2025. The Company's net income available to common shareholders was $10.0 million, or $0.88 per basic share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, compared to $8.6 million, or $0.76 per basic share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 and $7.4 million, or $0.65 per basic share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. Return on average assets and average equity for the second quarter of 2025 were 1.28% and 12.19%, respectively, compared to 1.13% and 10.83%, respectively, for the first quarter of 2025 and 0.95% and 9.91%, respectively, for the second quarter of 2024. The increase in earnings during the second quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2025 was primarily due to higher net interest income and noninterest income, along with lower noninterest expense. The increase in earnings in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024 was primarily due to increases in net interest income and noninterest income in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter.

"We are pleased with our second quarter results and continue to see good improvements to net income. Earnings were strong at $10.0 million, which increased $2.6 million from the second quarter of 2024, and was driven primarily from the improvement in net interest margin (on a fully taxable equivalent basis) from 3.26% in the prior year second quarter to 3.71% in the second quarter of 2025. Both our core deposits and loan levels are stable and grew slightly during the period. Asset quality remains strong, as nonperforming assets to total assets is only 0.33% at the end of the quarter. Liquidity and capital both remain at high levels," said Ty Abston, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

QUARTERLY HIGHLIGHTS

Strong Earnings and Improving NIM. Earnings were strong in the second quarter, driven primarily from higher net interest margin. Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, has continued to improve from 3.26% in the second quarter of 2024 to 3.71% in the second quarter of 2025, resulting in higher year-over-year net interest income, before the provision for credit losses, of $3.8 million. The improvements have resulted primarily from a decrease in deposit costs, while loans and available for sale securities have continued to reprice upward.

Good Asset Quality. Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets were 0.33% at June 30, 2025, compared to 0.15% at March 31, 2025 and 0.71% at June 30, 2024. Net charge-offs (annualized) to average loans were 0.05% for the quarter ended June 30, 2025, compared to 0.02% for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, and 0.01% for the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

We continue to maintain a granular loan portfolio. As of June 30, 2025, we had 10,850 total active loans with an average loan balance of $193,059. In our commercial real estate ("CRE") portfolio, we had 964 active loans with an average balance of $908,939 and our 1-4 family real estate portfolio had 2,863 loans with an average balance of $215,166.

Granular and Consistent Core Deposit Base. As of June 30, 2025, we have 91,436 total deposit accounts with an average account balance of $29,622. We have a historically reliable core deposit base, with strong and trusted banking relationships. Total deposits increased by $4.2 million during the second quarter. DDA balances increased $7.9 million, and time deposits increased $1.5 million, while savings and MMDA balances decreased $5.3 million. Excluding public funds and bank-owned accounts, our uninsured deposits as of June 30, 2025 were 27.0% of total deposits.

Interest rates paid on deposits during the quarter continued to decrease, primarily due to repricing of certificates of deposit. Our average cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased seven basis points during the quarter from 2.83% in the prior quarter to 2.76% in the current quarter. Our average cost of total deposits for the second quarter of 2025 decreased six basis points from 1.96% in the prior quarter to 1.90%^†. As of June 30, 2025, noninterest-bearing deposits represent 31.6% of total deposits.

Healthy Capital and Liquidity. Our capital and liquidity ratios, as well as contingent liquidity sources, remain very healthy. Our liquidity ratio, calculated as cash and cash equivalents and unpledged investments divided by total liabilities, was 18.8% as of June 30, 2025, compared to 13.6% as of June 30, 2024. Our total available contingent liquidity was $1.3 billion, consisting of FHLB, FRB and correspondent bank fed funds and revolving lines of credit. Finally, our total equity to average quarterly assets as of June 30, 2025 was 10.6%. If we had to recognize our entire unrealized losses on both AFS and HTM securities, our total equity to average assets ratio would be 9.9%^†, which we believe represents a strong capital level under regulatory requirements.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Net interest income, before the provision for credit losses, in the second quarter of 2025 and 2024 was $27.7 million and $23.9 million, respectively, an increase of $3.8 million, or 15.8%. The increase in net interest income resulted from a decrease in interest expense of $3.3 million, or 19.9%, compared to the prior year quarter, mainly due to $1.2 million in interest expense on FHLB advances during the second quarter of 2024, which we did not have in the current quarter. Our net interest income was further improved by an increase in interest income of $438,000, or 1.1%, from the same quarter in the prior year. The decrease in interest expense resulted primarily from a 100 basis point interest rate reduction by the Federal Reserve in late 2024, while the increase in interest income resulted primarily from higher securities portfolio yields and interest-bearing deposits held at other banks. These increases in interest income were partially offset by lower interest income on loans due to lower outstanding loan balances in the current quarter. Our noninterest-bearing deposits to total deposits were 31.6% and 31.2% as of June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent ("FTE") basis, for the second quarter of 2025 and 2024 was 3.71% and 3.26%, respectively. Net interest margin, on an FTE basis, increased 45 basis points due to a 65 basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities during the second quarter of 2025. The decrease in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities was due primarily to a decrease in the cost of interest-bearing deposits from 3.32% to 2.76%, a change of 56 basis points, in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, as well as no interest expense for FHLB advances in the current quarter, compared to $1.2 million in interest expense at a rate of 5.39% in the prior year quarter. The weighted average yield on $129.5 million in new loans originated in the second quarter was 7.22%.

Net interest income, before the provision for credit losses, increased $938,000, or 3.5%, from $26.7 million in the first quarter of 2025 to $27.7 million in the second quarter of 2025. The increase in net interest income resulted primarily from a $868,000, or 2.2%, increase in interest income due to a $6.8 million increase in the average balance of loans between periods. This was further improved by a $70,000, or 0.5%, decrease in interest expense due to repricing of certificates of deposit.

Net interest margin, on an FTE basis, increased from 3.70% for the first quarter of 2025 to 3.71% for the second quarter of 2025, an increase of one basis point. The increase in net interest margin, on an FTE basis, was primarily due to a seven basis point decrease in the rate on interest-bearing deposits and the $938,000, or 3.5%, increase in net interest income between periods.

We recorded no provision for credit losses during the second quarter of 2025, compared to a $300,000 reversal made in the first quarter of 2025 and a total reversal of provision for credit losses in 2024 of $2.2 million. Although gross loan balances increased slightly by $33.3 million during the second quarter of 2025, minor reductions were made to certain qualitative factor adjustments already in place primarily due to more stabilized economic outlooks, reduced risk in our real estate portfolio and reduction in overall loan volume during the period, all of which contributed to management's assessment for no provision during the quarter. As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.29% and 1.33%, respectively.

Noninterest income increased $961,000, or 20.9%, in the second quarter of 2025 to $5.6 million, compared to $4.6 million for the second quarter of 2024. The increase from the same quarter in 2024 was primarily due to a $1.0 million restitution payment from the settlement of a lawsuit that was filed by a bank that we acquired in 2015, prior to acquisition, and was recorded in other noninterest income. Also during the second quarter, in connection with our proposed merger with Glacier Bancorp, Inc. ("GBCI"), we entered into pay-fixed, receive variable interest rate swaption contracts with an institutional counterparty to mitigate interest rate risk from the time the merger was announced through the closing date. Changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaptions resulted in losses of $547,000, which were also recorded in other noninterest income and partially offset the restitution related income. Other changes to noninterest income from the prior year quarter included a $900,000 ORE valuation allowance during the second quarter of 2024 which was not present in the second quarter of 2025 and an increase on the gain on sale of loans of $112,000, or 49.3% compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Those increases were partially offset by a $261,000, or 12.3%, decrease in merchant and debit card fees in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the second quarter of 2024.

Noninterest income in the second quarter of 2025 increased by $527,000, or 10.5%, from $5.0 million in the first quarter of 2025. The increase was primarily due to an increase in other noninterest income of $587,000, or 94.1%, which resulted from the restitution income and swaption expense noted in the prior paragraph. Net realized gain on sale of mortgage and SBA loans also increased $199,000, or 142.1%, from $140,000 in the first quarter of 2024. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in merchant and debit card fees of $266,000, or 12.5% between periods.

Noninterest expense increased $104,000, or 0.5%, in the second quarter of 2025 to $20.7 million, compared to $20.6 million for the second quarter of 2024. The increase in noninterest expense in the second quarter of 2025 was driven primarily by a $186,000, or 11.3%, increase in software and technology expense and a $169,000, or 5.8%, increase in occupancy expenses compared to the prior year quarter, which consisted of an increase in depreciation and lease expense of $98,000 and $25,000, respectively, driven by completion of our new full service location in Georgetown, Texas and an increase in other building-related expenses of $60,000 from the second quarter of 2024. Additionally, we saw a $72,000, or 36.4%, increase in director and committee fees and a $70,000, or 8.3%, increase in legal and professional fees from the prior year quarter, primarily related to our proposed merger with GBCI. The remaining increases to noninterest expense included an $80,000, or 38.5%, increase in advertising and promotion expense to support brand visibility and strategic growth, and a $65,000, or 0.6%, increase in employee compensation and benefits in the second quarter of 2025 compared to the same quarter of the prior year. These increases were partially offset by a $474,000, or 29.6%, decrease in other noninterest expense, which was mainly attributable to $222,000 in ORE expenses during the prior year quarter, as well as $123,000 in losses sustained due to fraudulent check activity during the prior year quarter that were not present during the second quarter of 2025.

Noninterest expense decreased $503,000, or 2.4%, in the second quarter of 2025, from $21.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. The decrease resulted from a $452,000, or 3.7%, decrease in employee compensation and benefits during the second quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2025. This decrease was mainly due to bonus-related payroll taxes of $275,000 and an additional bonus accrual of $175,000 during the prior quarter not present in the second quarter of 2025. There was also a $308,000, or 21.4%, decrease in other noninterest expense due to miscellaneous write-offs during the second quarter of 2025. These decreases were partially offset by a $105,000, or 13.0%, increase to legal and professional fees and an $83,000, or 44.4%, increase in director and committee fees, both related to our proposed merger with GBCI. A $99,000, or 52.4%, increase to advertising and promotion expense during the second quarter of 2025 also contributed to the partial offset.

The Company's efficiency ratio in the second quarter of 2025 was 62.32%, compared to 72.34% in the prior year quarter and 66.78% in the first quarter of 2025.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

Consolidated assets for the Company totaled $3.14 billion at June 30, 2025, compared to $3.15 billion at March 31, 2025 and $3.08 billion at June 30, 2024.

Gross loans increased by $33.3 million, or 1.6%, during the quarter resulting in a gross loan balance of $2.14 billion at June 30, 2025, compared to $2.11 billion at March 31, 2025. The increase in loans resulted primarily from increases in construction and development, 1-4 family and multifamily segments and were somewhat offset by decreases in the commercial and industrial and farmland segments.

Gross loans decreased $73.6 million, or 3.3%, from $2.21 billion at June 30, 2024. The decrease in gross loans during the 12-month period resulted from tightened credit underwriting standards and loan terms, strategic non-renewal decisions and fewer borrower requests in response to higher interest rates and project costs.

Total deposits increased by $4.2 million, or 0.2%, to $2.71 billion at June 30, 2025, compared to $2.70 billion at March 31, 2025. The increase in deposits during the second quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2025 was the result of an increase in noninterest-bearing deposits of $9.7 million offset somewhat by a decrease in interest-bearing deposits of $5.6 million. Total deposits increased $82.3 million, or 3.1%, from $2.63 billion at June 30, 2024. The increase in deposits during the past 12 months resulted primarily from an increase in interest-bearing deposits of $47.3 million and an increase in noninterest-bearing deposits of $35.0 million.

Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total loans were 0.48% at June 30, 2025, compared to 0.23% at March 31, 2025 and 0.98% at June 30, 2024. Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets were 0.33% at June 30, 2025, compared to 0.15% at March 31, 2025, and 0.71% at June 30, 2024. The Bank's nonperforming assets consist primarily of ORE and nonaccrual loans. The increase in nonperforming assets compared to the prior quarter was due to an increase in nonaccrual loans, primarily from one borrowing relationship, with a balance of $5.4 million, that we expect to be resolved in the third quarter of 2025 with minimal, if any, losses.

Total equity was $331.8 million at June 30, 2025, compared to $325.8 million at March 31, 2025 and $308.6 million at June 30, 2024. The increase in total equity compared to the prior period quarter resulted primarily from net income of $10.0 million and was partially offset by $2.8 million in dividends paid during the second quarter of 2025.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Certain of the financial measures and ratios we present, including "tangible book value per common share", "net unrealized loss on securities, tax effected, as a percentage of total equity" and "cost of total deposits" are supplemental measures that are not required by, or are not presented in accordance with, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We refer to these financial measures and ratios as "non-GAAP financial measures." We consider the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial and operational decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain expenditures or assets that we believe are not indicative of our primary business operating results or by presenting certain metrics on a fully taxable equivalent basis. We believe that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP and you should not rely on non-GAAP financial measures alone as measures of our performance. The non-GAAP financial measures we present may differ from non-GAAP financial measures used by our peers or other companies. We compensate for these limitations by providing the equivalent GAAP measures whenever we present the non-GAAP financial measures and by including a reconciliation of the impact of the components adjusted for in the non-GAAP financial measure so that both measures and the individual components may be considered when analyzing our performance.

A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures is included at the end of the financial statement tables.
