Banner's fourth quarter 2022 results include $6.7 million of provision for credit losses, compared to $6.1 million of provision for credit losses in the preceding quarter and $5.2 million in recapture of provision for credit losses in the fourth quarter of 2021. In addition, the current quarter included an accrual of $3.5 million of legal expense in relation to a potential settlement of a pending litigation matter. For the year ended December 31, 2022, net income decreased 3% to $195.4 million, or $5.67 per diluted share, compared to net income of $201.0 million, or $5.76 per diluted share for the prior year.

"Banner's 2022 operating results reflect the continued successful execution of our super community bank strategy, and the benefits of implementing Banner Forward initiatives," said Mark Grescovich, President and CEO. "Our performance for the fourth quarter of 2022 benefited from solid loan growth and higher yields on interest-earning assets that led to net interest margin expansion. Our continued focus on fostering new client relationships contributed to our 13% growth in loans, excluding PPP loans, compared to 2021. Our asset sensitive balance sheet contributed to the expansion of our net interest margin. As we continue to grow, we remain true to our values and guiding principle: Do the right thing for our clients, communities, employees, and shareholders through all economic cycles."
"During the fourth quarter of 2022, we published our inaugural Environmental, Social and Governance Highlights Report," said Grescovich. "This report identifies ongoing practices and recent accomplishments in the areas of environmental risk and impact management, social responsibility (including diversity, equity and inclusion) and governance. While we've been engaged in ESG activities and practices for a very long time, creating this report makes it easier to share more examples and greater detail with interested stakeholders in a single, dedicated document." The report can be found on our website, bannerbank.com/esg.
"Banner Forward, our bank-wide initiative to enhance revenue growth and reduce operating expense, is having a meaningful impact on earnings," said Grescovich. "Beginning during the third quarter of 2021, Banner Forward is focused on accelerating growth in commercial banking, deepening relationships with retail clients, and advancing technology strategies to enhance our digital service channels, while streamlining underwriting and back office processes. The implementation of the revenue initiatives benefited the second half of 2022 and are expected to continue ramping up in 2023. The efficiency-related initiatives associated with Banner Forward have largely been completed. During the fourth quarter of 2022, we incurred expenses of $838,000 related to Banner Forward."
At December 31, 2022, Banner Corporation had $15.83 billion in assets, $10.01 billion in net loans and $13.62 billion in deposits. Banner operates 137 full service branch offices, including branches located in eight of the top 20 largest western Metropolitan Statistical Areas by population.

Income Statement Review
Net interest income was $159.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $146.4 million in the preceding quarter and $121.5 million in the fourth quarter a year ago. Banner's net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis was 4.23% for the fourth quarter of 2022, a 38 basis-point increase compared to 3.85% in the preceding quarter and a 106 basis-point increase compared to 3.17% in the fourth quarter a year ago. "Rising market interest rates during the quarter produced higher yields on loans and investment securities which improved our net interest margin. Our net interest margin was also enhanced by increases in average loan balances during the quarter," said Grescovich.
Average yields on interest-earning assets increased 43 basis points to 4.40% for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to 3.97% for the preceding quarter and increased 111 basis points compared to 3.29% in the fourth quarter a year ago. Since March 2022, in response to inflation, the Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC") of the Federal Reserve System has increased the target range for the federal funds rate by 425 basis points, including 125 basis points during the fourth quarter of 2022, to a range of 4.25% to 4.50%. The increase in average yields on interest-earning assets during the current quarter reflects the benefit of variable rate interest-earning assets repricing higher, as well as new loans being originated at higher interest rates. Average loan yields increased 32 basis points to 5.14% compared to 4.82% in the preceding quarter and increased 57 basis points compared to 4.57% in the fourth quarter a year ago. The increase in average loan yields during the current quarter compared to the preceding and prior year quarters was primarily the result of rising interest rates. The year-over-year increase in average loan yields was partially offset by a decline in the recognition of deferred loan fee income due to loan repayments from U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA") Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loan forgiveness compared to the prior year quarter. Total deposit costs were 0.10% in the fourth quarter of 2022, which was a three basis-point increase compared to both the preceding quarter and fourth quarter a year ago. The total cost of funding liabilities was 0.18% during the fourth quarter of 2022, a five basis-point increase compared to 0.13% in both the preceding quarter and fourth quarter a year ago.
Banner recorded a $6.7 million provision for credit losses in the current quarter (comprised of a $6.0 million provision for credit losses - loans, a $680,000 provision for credit losses - unfunded loan commitments and a $19,000 recapture of provision for credit losses - held-to-maturity debt securities). This compares to a $6.1 million provision for credit losses in the prior quarter (comprised of a $6.3 million provision for credit losses - loans, a $205,000 recapture of provision for credit losses - unfunded loan commitments and a $55,000 recapture of provision for credit losses - held-to-maturity debt securities) and a $5.2 million recapture of provision for credit losses in the fourth quarter a year ago (comprised of an $8.1 million recapture of provision for credit losses - loans, a $2.3 million provision for credit losses - unfunded loan commitments and a $579,000 provision for credit losses - held-to-maturity debt securities). The provision for credit losses for the current and preceding quarter primarily reflects loan growth and, to a lesser extent, a deterioration in forecasted economic indicators utilized to estimate credit losses.
Total non-interest income was $13.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $15.6 million in the preceding quarter and $24.5 million in the fourth quarter a year ago. The decrease in non-interest income during the current quarter, compared to the prior quarter was primarily due to a $628,000 decrease in deposit fees and other service charges and a $3.7 million net loss on the sale of securities recorded during the current quarter, partially offset by a $2.2 million increase in mortgage banking revenues. The decrease in non-interest income during the current quarter, compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to a $3.3 million decrease in mortgage banking revenues, a $3.3 million decrease in miscellaneous non-interest income primarily due to a valuation adjustment recognized on the SBA servicing asset and higher gains related to SBA loans sold during the fourth quarter a year ago, and the previously mentioned net loss recognized on the sale of securities during the current quarter, partially offset by a $917,000 increase in bank-owned life insurance income. Deposit fees and other service charges were $10.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $11.4 million in the preceding quarter and $10.3 million in the fourth quarter a year ago.
Mortgage banking revenues, including gains on one- to four-family and multifamily loan sales and loan servicing fees, were $2.3 million in the fourth quarter, compared to $105,000 in the preceding quarter and $5.6 million in the fourth quarter a year ago. The increase from the preceding quarter primarily reflects a negative fair value adjustment recognized in the previous quarter on multifamily held for sale loans. The decrease from the fourth quarter of 2021 primarily reflects a reduction in the volume and a decrease in the gain on sale margin for one- to four-family loans sold. The reduction in the volume of one-to four family loans sold primarily reflects reduced refinancing activity, as well as decreased purchase activity as interest rates increased during the current year. Home purchase activity accounted for 90% of one- to four-family mortgage loan originations in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to 88% in the preceding quarter and was 64% in the fourth quarter of 2021. Mortgage banking revenue included a $723,000 lower of cost or market upward adjustment for the current quarter due to the transfer of multifamily held for sale loans to held for investment portfolio loans, partially offset by a negative fair value adjustment on multifamily held for sale loans. This compares to a $2.2 million lower of cost or market downward adjustment recorded during the preceding quarter on multifamily held for sale loans due to increases in market interest rates this year.
Fourth quarter 2022 non-interest income also included a $157,000 net gain for fair value adjustments as a result of changes in the valuation of financial instruments carried at fair value, principally comprised of certain investment securities held for trading and limited partnership investments, and a $3.7 million net loss on the sale of securities. In the preceding quarter, results included a $532,000 net gain for fair value adjustments and a $6,000 net gain on the sale of securities. In the fourth quarter a year ago, results included a $2.7 million net gain for fair value adjustments and a $136,000 net loss on the sale of securities.
Total revenue increased 6% to $172.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $162.0 million in the preceding quarter, and increased 18% compared to $146.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. Adjusted revenue* (the total of net interest income and total non-interest income excluding the net gain or loss on the sale of securities, the net change in valuation of financial instruments, and the gain on sale of branches) was $175.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $161.5 million in the preceding quarter and $143.4 million in the fourth quarter a year ago. For the year ended December 31, 2022, total revenue was $628.4 million compared to $593.3 million during 2021, with adjusted revenue* totaling $623.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to $588.2 million in 2021.
Total non-interest expense was $99.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $95.0 million in the preceding quarter and $91.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase in non-interest expense for the current quarter compared to the prior quarter primarily reflects a $1.1 million decrease in capitalized loan origination costs, primarily due to decreases in production for construction and land loans, a $1.5 million increase in occupancy and equipment expenses, primarily reflecting increased building rent expense due to lease buyouts during the quarter as well as weather related increases in building maintenance expense, and a $3.7 million increase in professional and legal expenses, primarily due to a $3.5 million accrual during the current quarter in relation to a potential settlement of a pending litigation matter, partially offset by a $1.3 million decrease in salary and employee benefits expense, primarily due to a decrease in commission expense. The increase in non-interest expense for the current quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago primarily reflects an increase in salary and employee benefits expense, a decrease in capitalized loan origination costs and an increase in professional and legal expenses, partially offset by a $2.3 million loss on extinguishment of debt as a result of the redemption of $8.2 million of junior subordinated debentures during fourth quarter of 2021. For the year ended December 31, 2022, total non-interest expense was $377.3 million, compared to $380.1 million in the prior year. Banner's efficiency ratio was 57.52% for the fourth quarter, compared to 58.65% in the preceding quarter and 62.88% in same quarter a year ago. Banner's adjusted efficiency ratio* was 54.43% for the fourth quarter, compared to 57.04% in the preceding quarter and 59.71% in the year ago quarter.
Federal and state income tax expense totaled $12.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 resulting in an effective tax rate of 18.1%, reflecting the benefits from tax exempt income as well as some adjustments related to filing its annual tax returns. Banner's statutory income tax rate is 23.5%, representing a blend of the statutory federal income tax rate of 21.0% and apportioned effects of the state income tax rates.

Balance Sheet Review

The decreases compared to the prior quarter and the prior year quarter were primarily due to a decrease in interest-bearing deposits. The average effective duration of Banner's securities portfolio was approximately 6.5 years at December 31, 2022, compared to 4.6 years at December 31, 2021.
Total loans receivable increased to $10.15 billion at December 31, 2022, compared to $9.83 billion at September 30, 2022, and $9.08 billion at December 31, 2021. Excluding SBA PPP loans, total loans receivable increased $325.1 million from the preceding quarter and increased $1.19 billion from the fourth quarter a year ago. SBA PPP loans decreased 41% to $7.9 million at December 31, 2022, compared to $13.4 million at September 30, 2022, and decreased 94% to $133.9 million at December 31, 2021. One- to four-family residential loans increased to $1.17 billion at December 31, 2022, compared to $1.03 billion at September 30, 2022, and $657.5 million a year ago. The increase in one- to four-family residential loans from the preceding quarter was primarily the result of one- to four-family construction loans converting to one- to four-family portfolio loans as construction was completed and new production during the fourth quarter of 2022. Multifamily real estate loans increased 9% to $645.1 million at December 31, 2022, compared to $592.8 million at September 30, 2022, and increased 22% compared to $530.9 million a year ago. The current quarter increase in multifamily loans was due to transferring $54.0 million of multifamily held for sale loans to held for investment portfolio loans. Commercial real estate loans decreased slightly to $3.64 billion at December 31, 2022, compared to $3.66 billion at September 30, 2022 and decreased 4% when compared to $3.79 billion at December 31, 2021. Commercial business loans increased 4% to $2.23 billion at December 31, 2022, compared to $2.15 billion at September 30, 2022, and increased 14% compared to $1.96 billion a year ago. Excluding SBA PPP loans, commercial business loans increased 4% to $2.22 billion at December 31, 2022, compared to $2.14 billion at September 30, 2022, and increased 21% compared to $1.83 billion a year ago. Agricultural business loans decreased to $295.1 million at December 31, 2022, compared to $299.4 million at September 30, 2022, and increased from $280.6 million a year ago. Total construction, land and land development loans were $1.49 billion at December 31, 2022, a 3% increase from $1.44 billion at September 30, 2022, and a 14% increase from $1.31 billion at December 31, 2021, primarily due to an increase in multifamily construction loans. Consumer loans increased to $680.9 million at December 31, 2022, compared to $662.2 million at September 30, 2022, and increased from $555.9 million a year ago. The year-over-year increase in consumer loans was partially due to the purchase of a $25.6 million pool of consumer marine loans during the prior quarter.
Loans held for sale were $56.9 million at December 31, 2022, compared to $84.4 million at September 30, 2022, and $96.5 million at December 31, 2021. The volume of one- to four- family residential mortgage loans sold was $39.3 million in the current quarter, compared to $49.7 million in the preceding quarter and $245.9 million in the fourth quarter a year ago. No multifamily loans were sold during the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $10.5 million sold in the preceding quarter and none sold in the fourth quarter a year ago.
Total deposits decreased to $13.62 billion at December 31, 2022, compared to $14.23 billion at September 30, 2022, and $14.33 billion a year ago. Non-interest-bearing account balances decreased 5% to $6.18 billion at December 31, 2022, compared to $6.51 billion at September 30, 2022, and 3% compared to $6.39 billion a year ago. Core deposits were 95% of total deposits at both December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022 and 94% of total deposits at December 31, 2021. Certificates of deposit increased to $723.5 million at December 31, 2022, compared to $721.9 million at September 30, 2022, and decreased 14% compared to $838.6 million a year earlier. Banner had $50.0 million of FHLB borrowings at December 31, 2022, compared to none at September 30, 2022 and $50.0 million a year ago.
At December 31, 2022, total common shareholders' equity was $1.46 billion, or 9.20% of assets, compared to $1.41 billion or 8.61% of assets at September 30, 2022, and $1.69 billion or 10.06% of assets a year ago. The increase in total common shareholders' equity at December 31, 2022 compared to September 30, 2022 was primarily due to a $39.1 million increase in retained earnings as a result of $54.4 million in net income, partially offset by the payment of cash dividends during the quarter. The decrease in total common shareholders' equity from December 31, 2021 reflects a $363.0 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income, primarily due to an increase in the unrealized loss on the security portfolio as a result of an increase in interest rates, the repurchase of 200,000 shares of common stock in the second quarter of 2022 at an average cost of $54.80 per share, and the payment of cash dividends, partially offset by a $134.5 million increase in retained earnings. At December 31, 2022, tangible common shareholders' equity*, which excludes goodwill and other intangible assets, net, was $1.07 billion, or 6.95% of tangible assets*, compared to $1.02 billion, or 6.41% of tangible assets, at September 30, 2022, and $1.30 billion, or 7.93% of tangible assets, a year ago.
Banner and Banner Bank continue to maintain capital levels in excess of the requirements to be categorized as "well-capitalized." At December 31, 2022, Banner's estimated common equity Tier 1 capital ratio was 11.44%, its estimated Tier 1 leverage capital to average assets ratio was 9.45%, and its estimated total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio was 14.04%. These regulatory capital ratios are estimates, pending completion and filing of Banner's regulatory reports.

The allowance for credit losses - loans was $141.5 million, or 1.39% of total loans receivable and 615% of non-performing loans, at December 31, 2022, compared to $135.9 million, or 1.38% of total loans receivable and 895% of non-performing loans, at September 30, 2022, and $132.1 million, or 1.45% of total loans receivable and 578% of non-performing loans, at December 31, 2021.

| * Non-GAAP Financial Measures | |||||||||||||||||||
| In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Tangible common shareholders' equity per share and the ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets (both of which exclude goodwill and other intangible assets, net), and references to adjusted revenue (which excludes fair value adjustments, net gain (loss) on the sale of securities and gain on sale of branches from the total of net interest income and total non-interest income) and the adjusted efficiency ratio (which excludes merger and acquisition-related expenses, COVID-19 expenses, Banner Forward expenses, amortization of core deposit intangibles, real estate owned operations, loss on extinguishment of debt and state/municipal taxes from non-interest expense divided by adjusted revenue) represent non-GAAP financial measures. Management has presented these non-GAAP financial measures in this earnings release because it believes that they provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in Banner's core operations reflected in the current quarter's results and facilitate the comparison of our performance with the performance of our peers. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for any analysis based on GAAP. Where applicable, comparable earnings information using GAAP financial measures is also presented. Because not all companies use the same calculations, our presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures as calculated by other companies. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures, see the tables below: | |||||||||||||||||||
