- Net revenues were $91.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, an increase of $0.6 million, or 1%, compared to the prior quarter, and an increase of $7.3 million, or 9%, compared to the prior year quarter. For the year ended December 31, 2021, net revenues were $346.8 million, an increase of $22.4 million, or 7%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. Adjusted revenues1 were $90.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, an increase of $0.2 million compared to the prior quarter, and an increase of $6.9 million, or 8.2%, compared to the prior year quarter. For the year ended December 31, 2021, net revenues were $346.6 million, an increase of $23.5 million, or 7%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2020.
- Net interest income totaled $72.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, an increase of $1.0 million, or 1%, from the prior quarter, reflecting the benefit of strong organic loan growth, partially offset by lower recognition of fees from slower PPP loan forgiveness. For the year ended December 31, 2021, net interest income was $276.0 million, an increase of $13.3 million, or 5%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2021, remaining deferred fees on PPP loans total $2.4 million, which will be recognized over the loans' remaining contractual maturity or earlier, as loans are forgiven.
- Net interest margin declined to 3.16% in the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to 3.22% in the third quarter of 2021, driven by lower yields on securities and loans reflective of the rate environment, partially offset by lower levels of excess liquidity and lower cost of deposits. Excluding the effect of PPP and accretion on acquired loans, net interest margin increased two basis points, from 2.89% in the third quarter of 2021 to 2.91% in the fourth quarter of 2021. Securities yields declined two basis points to 1.57% with continued careful deployment of cash into securities purchases. Non-PPP loan yields declined 11 basis points to 4.18%, with a record $408.9 million in commercial loan originations during the fourth quarter of 2021. Offsetting and favorable was the decline in excess liquidity including a strategic decline in brokered deposits, and a further decline in the cost of deposits to only six basis points. The effect on net interest margin of accretion of purchase discounts on acquired loans was an increase of 15 basis points in each of the fourth and third quarters of 2021. The effect on net interest margin of interest and fees on PPP loans was an increase of 10 basis points in the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to an increase of eighteen basis points in the prior quarter.
- Noninterest income totaled $18.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 2%, compared to the prior quarter, and an increase of $3.8 million, or 25%, compared to the prior year quarter. For the year ended December 31, 2021, noninterest income was $70.7 million, an increase of $9.2 million, or 15%, compared to the year ended December 31, 2020. Results for the fourth quarter of 2021 included the following:
- Interchange revenue was flat compared to the prior quarter at $4.1 million, reflecting strong transactional volume despite the impact of the COVID-19 Omicron variant on spending late in the quarter. Economic conditions in Florida remain strong, and indications of consumer confidence are high.
- Wealth management income was $2.4 million in the fourth quarter, a decrease of $0.2 million compared to the prior quarter. Higher trust-related fees in the prior quarter drove the comparative decline. The wealth management team added $64 million in AUM during the fourth quarter, and $419 million for the full year 2021, ending the year with $1.2 billion in assets under management, a 42% increase compared to the prior year.
- Mortgage banking fees were $2.0 million, compared to $2.5 million in the prior quarter, due to slowing refinance activity and continuing low housing inventory levels.
- SBA gains were $0.2 million compared to $0.8 million in the prior quarter, on lower saleable production.
- Other income increased by $1.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, including an increase of $0.7 million in gains from SBIC investments compared to the prior quarter. Amounts recognized on SBIC investments will vary amongst periods. In addition, the sale of a website domain name obtained in a prior bank acquisition resulted in a gain of $0.8 million, which has been removed from the presentation of adjusted net income.
- The Company recognized $0.4 million in losses in the fourth quarter of 2021 on the sale of lower-yielding securities, which were removed from the presentation of adjusted net income.
- The provision for credit losses was a net benefit of $3.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, reflecting continued improvement in the economic outlook, compared to a provision of $5.1 million in the prior quarter. The prior quarter included an increase associated with onboarding the Legacy Bank of Florida acquisition.
- Noninterest expense was $50.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, a decrease of $5.0 million, or 9%, compared to the prior quarter, and an increase of $6.6 million, or 15%, compared to the prior year quarter.

- Salaries and wages decreased $2.9 million to $25.0 million, with the prior quarter reflecting $2.6 million in merger-related expenses associated with the Legacy Bank of Florida acquisition.
- Employee benefits increased by $0.6 million to $4.8 million, primarily the result of higher employee health insurance costs.
- Outsourced data processing costs decreased by $0.4 million to $5.2 million, with increases in the prior quarter reflecting expenses related to the acquisition of Legacy Bank of Florida, offset by expenses incurred in the fourth quarter of 2021 preparing for the upgrade of the online and mobile banking platform in the first quarter of 2022.
- Legal and professional fees decreased by $1.7 million to $2.5 million, with the prior quarter reflecting $1.5 million in merger-related expenses.

The tax rate increased to 5.5% effective January 1, 2022, resulting in an additional tax benefit of $0.8 million recognized in the fourth quarter of 2021 upon the adjustment of the value of deferred tax assets affected by the change. Tax benefits related to stock-based compensation totaled $0.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2021, $0.3 million in the third quarter of 2021, and were nominal in the fourth quarter of 2020.

- The efficiency ratio was 53.70% in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to 59.55% in the prior quarter and 48.23% in the prior year quarter. The decrease from the prior quarter primarily reflects the impact of merger related expenses incurred in the prior quarter.

The adjusted efficiency ratio1 was 53.43% in the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to 51.50% in the prior quarter and 48.75% in the prior year quarter.

Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021 Strategic Highlights
Capitalizing on Seacoast’s Early Commitment to Digital Transformation
- Seacoast is utilizing best-in-class technology and our extensive digital competencies to support our growth initiatives. An upgraded online and mobile banking platform, launching in the first quarter of 2022, unifies the user experience with new functionality and features that are consistent across all devices. This new platform will also deliver a range of new digital products and services. Delivering an enhanced digital banking experience for both consumers and businesses complements our exceptional branch, ATM, and telephone banking services to deliver a very competitive value proposition.
- Routine transactions continue to migrate from the branch network to lower cost channels, including to digital offerings and to our recently upgraded ATM network. In the fourth quarter of 2021, 61% of all consumer deposit transactions were completed outside of the branch network, an increase of 10% compared to the same period in 2019.
- Technology continues to help our teams outperform and provide outstanding service to our customers. A significant investment in our digital commercial loan origination platform in 2021 has accelerated our speed to market, providing a quicker renewal process and a streamlined workflow for bankers and underwriters. Customers have also benefited from our automated PPP forgiveness solution integrated with our existing technology infrastructure.
Driving Sustainable Growth and Expanding our Footprint
- Our balanced growth strategy includes organic growth initiatives across the state, including recent entries into Northeast Florida and Naples/Ft. Myers with key additions to our commercial banking leadership and teams. In 2021, we added 20 experienced bankers in the state’s most dynamic and fastest growing markets. We expect to continue to invest in well known seasoned bankers in the coming year.
- Seacoast continues to evolve our branch footprint in order to redirect capacity into attractive growth markets. In alignment with this strategy, four banking center locations were consolidated in 2021, and two new branches opened.
Scaling and Evolving Our Culture
- In 2021, Seacoast customer satisfaction scores exceeded industry benchmarks, a reflection of best-in-class branch and call center customer service experiences. Seacoast index scores were 110% compared to the industry benchmark for branch customer service and 104% compared to the industry benchmark for call center support according to a leading data analytics and consumer intelligence company.
- In November, Seacoast Bank was named one of the Best Banks to Work For in 2021 by American Banker. This is the second consecutive year that Seacoast was selected for this award.

This presentation contains financial information determined by methods other than Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance and believes these presentations provide useful supplemental information, and a clearer understanding of the Company’s performance. The Company believes the non-GAAP measures enhance investors’ understanding of the Company’s business and performance and if not provided would be requested by the investor community. These measures are also useful in understanding performance trends and facilitate comparisons with the performance of other financial institutions. The limitations associated with operating measures are the risk that persons might disagree as to the appropriateness of items comprising these measures and that different companies might define or calculate these measures differently. The Company provides reconciliations between GAAP and these non-GAAP measures. These disclosures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP.
