Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The consolidated unaudited financial statements presented in this report include the accounts of HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc., a Maryland corporation (“HomeTrust”), and its wholly-owned subsidiary, HomeTrust Bank (the “Bank”). As used throughout this report, the term the “Company” refers to HomeTrust and its consolidated subsidiary, unless the context otherwise requires. HomeTrust is a bank holding company primarily engaged in the business of planning, directing, and coordinating the business activities of the Bank. The Bank is a North Carolina state chartered bank and provides a wide range of retail and commercial banking products within its geographic footprint, which includes: North Carolina (the Asheville metropolitan area, Greensboro/"Piedmont" region, Charlotte, and Raleigh/Cary), Upstate South Carolina (Greenville), East Tennessee (Kingsport/Johnson City, Knoxville, and Morristown), Southwest Virginia (the Roanoke Valley) and Georgia (Greater Atlanta). The Bank operates under a single set of corporate policies and procedures and is recognized as a single banking segment for financial reporting purposes.

As a result of its merger with Quantum on February 12, 2023, HomeTrust became the 100% successor owner of the Quantum Capital Statutory Trust II Delaware trust. The sole assets of the trust represent the proceeds of offerings loaned in exchange for subordinated debentures with similar terms to the trust preferred securities.

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as promulgated by the SEC. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented have been included. It is recommended that these unaudited interim consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2023 ("2023 Form 10-K") filed with the SEC on September 11, 2023. The results of operations for the three months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the six-month transition period ending December 31, 2023, the period which will be covered on a Transition Report Form 10-KT associated with the Company's change in fiscal year end.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements. Various elements of the Company's accounting policies, by their nature, are inherently subject to estimation techniques, valuation assumptions, and other subjective assessments. In particular, management has identified the determination of the provision and the ACL on loans; the accounting for business combinations, core deposit intangible, and acquired loans; and goodwill as accounting policies that, due to the judgments, estimates and assumptions inherent in these policies, are critical to an understanding of the Company's financial statements. These policies and the related judgments, estimates and assumptions are described in greater detail in the notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (Critical Accounting Policies) in the 2023 Form 10-K. Management believes that the judgments, estimates, and assumptions used in the preparation of the financial statements are appropriate based on the factual circumstances at the time. However, given the sensitivity of the financial statements to these critical accounting policies, the use of other judgments, estimates, and assumptions could result in material differences in the Company's results of operations or financial condition. Further, subsequent changes in economic or market conditions could have a material impact on these estimates and the Company's financial condition and operating results in future periods.

Reclassifications

To maintain consistency and comparability, certain amounts from prior periods have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation with no effect on net income or stockholders’ equity as previously reported.

2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Adoption of New Accounting Standards

ASU 2022-02, "Financial Instruments—Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures." This ASU eliminates the TDR recognition and measurement guidance and requires that an entity evaluate whether the modification represents a new loan or a continuation of an existing loan. The amendment also adjusts the disclosures related to modifications and requires entities to disclose current-period gross write-offs by year of origination within the existing vintage disclosures.

The Company adopted the standard using the modified retrospective transition method on July 1, 2023. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company's ACL, but as a result of the elimination of the concept of TDRs, the balance of individually evaluated loans decreased by $1.9 million. The changes to financial statement disclosures have been reflected in this filing, specifically "Note 6 – Loans and Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans".

3. Merger with Quantum

On February 12, 2023, the Company merged with Quantum which operated two locations in the Atlanta metro area. The aggregate amount of consideration paid per the purchase agreement of approximately $70,771, inclusive of consideration of common stock, other cash consideration, and cash in lieu of fractional shares, included $15,869 of cash consideration paid by Quantum to its stockholders in advance of the closing date as is further described below. These distributions reduced Quantum's stockholders' equity by an equal amount prior to the transaction closing date.

(1)Adjustments to Quantum's total loans include the elimination of Quantum's existing allowance for loan losses of $5,972, the recognition of an ACL at close on PCD loans of $369, and adjustments to reflect the estimated credit fair value mark on the non-PCD loan portfolio of $2,932 and the estimated interest rate fair value adjustment on the loan portfolio as a whole (non-PCD and PCD) of $7,878.

(2)As indicated in the Current Report on Form 8-K/A filed with the SEC on March 30, 2023, the amount of cash consideration paid at closing differs from the $57.54 per share, or $33,037, reported in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 13, 2023, which announced the closing of the merger. Consistent with the merger agreement, between the execution of the merger agreement and the transaction closing date, Quantum's principal stockholders had the option to withdraw some or all of the amount of cash consideration to eventually be paid at closing in advance of the closing date. The amount of cash consideration paid at closing was reduced by the amount withdrawn during this time period.

Goodwill of $8,473 arising from the merger consisted largely of synergies and the cost saves resulting from the combining of operations of the companies, and is not expected to be deductible for income tax purposes.

The total number of securities with unrealized losses at September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 were 206 and 205, respectively.

Management evaluates securities for impairment where there has been a decline in fair value below the amortized cost basis of a security to determine whether there is a credit loss associated with the decline in fair value on at least a quarterly basis, and more frequently when economic or market concerns warrant such evaluation. All debt securities available for sale in an unrealized loss position as of September 30, 2023 continue to perform as scheduled and management does not believe that there is a credit loss or that a provision for credit losses is necessary. Also, as part of management's evaluation of its intent and ability to hold investments for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in the market, management considers its investment strategy, cash flow needs, liquidity position, capital adequacy and interest rate risk position. Management does not currently intend to sell the securities within the portfolio and it is not more-likely-than-not that securities will be required to be sold. See "Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in our 2023 Form 10-K for further discussion.

Management continues to monitor all of its securities with a high degree of scrutiny. There can be no assurance that management will not conclude in future periods that conditions existing at that time indicate some or all of its securities may be sold or would require a charge to earnings as a provision for credit losses in such periods.

Management excludes the accrued interest receivable balance from the amortized cost basis in measuring ECL on investment securities and does not record an ACL on accrued interest receivable. As of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, accrued interest receivable for debt securities available for sale was $372 and $532, respectively.

5. Loans Held For Sale

(1) At September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 accrued interest receivable of $15,748 and $14,101, respectively, was accounted for separately from the amortized cost basis.

All qualifying one-to-four family loans, HELOCs, commercial real estate loans, and FHLB of Atlanta stock are pledged as collateral by a blanket pledge to secure outstanding FHLB advances.

Loans are made to the Company's executive officers, directors and their associates during the ordinary course of business. The aggregate amount of loans to such related parties totaled approximately $213 and $215 at September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively. In addition, there are unfunded commitments related to these loans that totaled approximately $264 and $264 at September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively.

Loans are monitored for credit quality on a recurring basis and the composition of the loans outstanding by credit quality indicator is provided below. Loan credit quality indicators are developed through review of individual borrowers on an ongoing basis. Generally, loans are monitored for performance on a quarterly basis with the credit quality indicators adjusted as needed. The indicators represent the rating for loans as of the date presented based on the most recent assessment performed. These credit quality indicators are defined as follows:

Pass – A pass rated loan is not adversely classified because it does not display any of the characteristics for adverse classification.

Special Mention – A special mention loan has potential weaknesses that deserve management’s close attention. If left uncorrected, such potential weaknesses may result in deterioration of the repayment prospects or collateral position at some future date. Special mention loans are not adversely classified and do not warrant adverse classification.

Substandard – A substandard loan is inadequately protected by the current net worth and paying capacity of the obligor, or of the collateral pledged, if any. Loans classified as substandard generally have a well-defined weakness, or weaknesses, that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. These loans are characterized by the distinct possibility of loss if the deficiencies are not corrected.

Doubtful – A loan classified as doubtful has all the weaknesses inherent in a loan classified substandard with the added characteristic that the weaknesses make collection or liquidation in full highly questionable and improbable, on the basis of currently existing facts, conditions, and values.

Loss – Loans classified as loss are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuing to be carried as a loan is not warranted. This classification is not necessarily equivalent to no potential for recovery or salvage value, but rather that it is not appropriate to defer a full write-off even though partial recovery may be effected in the future.

In estimating ECL, ASC 326 prescribes that if foreclosure is expected, a CDA is required to be measured at the fair value of collateral, but as a practical expedient, if foreclosure is not probable, fair value measurement is optional. For those CDA loans measured at the fair value of collateral, a credit loss expense is recorded for loan amounts in excess of fair value. The following tables provide a breakdown between loans identified as CDAs and non-CDAs, by segment and class, and securing collateral, as well as collateral coverage for those loans for the periods indicated below:

Modifications to Borrowers Experiencing Financial Difficulty

Management identifies loans as modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulties and the Company has altered the cash flow of the loan as part of a modification or in the loan renewal process. In order to determine whether a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty, an evaluation is performed of the probability that the borrower will be in payment default on any of the borrower's debt in the foreseeable future without the modification. This evaluation is performed in accordance with the Company’s internal underwriting policy.

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

The Company modifies loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty by providing principal forgiveness, a term extension, an other-than-insignificant payment delay or interest rate adjustments. In some cases, the Company provides multiple types of modifications on one loan. Typically, one type of modification, such as a term extension, is granted initially. If the borrower continues to experience financial difficulty, another modification, such as principal forgiveness, may be granted. For loans included in the combination columns in the table below, multiple types of modifications have been made on the same loan within the current reporting period.

The starting point for the estimate of the ACL is historical loss information, which includes losses from modifications of loans to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. As a result, the effect of most modifications made to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty is already included in the ACL and a change to the ACL is generally not recorded upon modification. When principal forgiveness is provided, however, the amount of forgiveness is charged off against the ACL.

The following table presents the amortized cost basis of loans at September 30, 2023 that were both experiencing financial difficulty and modified during the three months ended September 30, 2023 by class and type of modification. The percentage of the amortized cost basis of loans that were modified to borrowers in financial difficulty as compared to the amortized cost basis of each class of financing receivable is also presented.

There were no loans that had a payment default during the three months ended September 30, 2023 that had previously been modified within the same period.

Off-Balance Sheet Credit Exposure

The Company maintains a separate reserve for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures, including unfunded loan commitments, which is included in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet. The reserve for credit losses on off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted as a provision for credit losses in the consolidated statement of income. The estimate includes consideration of the likelihood that funding will occur and an estimate of ECLs on commitments expected to be funded over its estimated life, utilizing the same models and approaches for the Company's other loan portfolio segments described above, as these unfunded commitments share similar risk characteristics as its loan portfolio segments. The Company has identified the unfunded portion of certain lines of credit as unconditionally cancellable credit exposures, meaning the Company can cancel the unfunded commitment at any time. No credit loss estimate is reported for off-balance sheet credit exposures that are unconditionally cancellable by the Company or for undrawn amounts under such arrangements that may be drawn prior to the cancellation of the arrangement. At September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the ACL on off-balance sheet credit exposures included in other liabilities was $3,277 and $3,557, respectively.

8. Borrowings

Junior Subordinated Debentures

On February 21, 2007, Quantum formed a Connecticut statutory trust, Quantum Capital Statutory Trust II (the "Trust"), which issued $11,000 of trust preferred securities that were designed to qualify as Tier I capital under Federal Reserve Board guidelines. All of the common securities of the Trust were owned by Quantum. The proceeds from the issuance of the common securities and the trust preferred securities were used by the Trust to purchase $11,341 of junior subordinated debentures of Quantum. As a result of its merger with Quantum on February 12, 2023, HomeTrust became the 100% successor owner of the Trust.

The trust preferred securities accrue and pay quarterly distributions at a floating rate of 3-month Term SOFR plus 2.20%, which was 7.60% at September 30, 2023. The Company has guaranteed distributions and other payments due on the trust preferred securities to the extent the Trust has insufficient funds with which to make the distributions and other payments. The net combined effect of all documents entered into in connection with the trust preferred securities is that the Company is liable to make the distributions and other payments required on the trust preferred securities.

The trust preferred securities are mandatorily redeemable upon maturity of the debentures on March 15, 2037, or upon earlier redemption as provided in the indenture. The Company has the right to redeem the debentures purchased by the Trust, in whole or in part, on or after March 15, 2012. As specified in the indenture, if the debentures are redeemed prior to maturity, the redemption price will be the principal amount and any accrued but unpaid interest.

Other Borrowings

Borrowings, outside of junior subordinated debt, consist of the following at the dates indicated:


	September 30, 2023				June 30, 2023
	Balance		Weighted Average Rate		Balance		Weighted Average Rate
FHLB advances	$	130,000	5.47	%	$	180,000	5.19	%
FRB advances	302,000		5.50		257,000		5.25
Revolving lines of credit	20,263		9.00		20,263		8.75
Total borrowings	$	452,263	5.65	%	$	457,263	5.38	%

All qualifying one-to-four family loans, HELOCs, commercial real estate loans, and FHLB of Atlanta stock are pledged as collateral to secure outstanding FHLB advances while commercial construction, indirect auto and municipal loans are pledged as collateral to secure outstanding FRB advances. At September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the Company had the ability to borrow $67,693 and $22,673, respectively, through additional FHLB advances and $62,142 and $91,316, respectively, through the unused portion of a line of credit with the FRB.

At September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the Company maintained revolving lines of credit with three unaffiliated banks, the unused portions of which totaled $144,737 as of both dates. At both September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, HomeTrust had drawn $20,263 on a $40,000 revolving line of credit which bears interest at The Wall Street Journal prime rate plus 50 basis points, maturing on January 30, 2024, although the term may be extended for an additional year two times if no events of default have occurred.

9. Leases

As Lessee - Operating Leases

The Company's operating leases primarily include office space and bank branches. Certain leases include one or more options to renew, with renewal terms that can extend the lease term up to 15 additional years. The exercise of lease renewal options is at management's sole discretion. When it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise our option to renew or extend the lease term, that option is included in estimating the value of the ROU and lease liability. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Most of the Company's lease agreements include periodic rate adjustments for inflation. The depreciable lives of ROU assets and leasehold improvements are limited to the shorter of the useful life or the expected lease term. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheet. The Company recognizes lease expenses for these leases over the lease term.

As Lessor - General

The Company leases equipment to commercial end users under operating and finance lease arrangements. The Company's equipment finance leases consist mainly of construction, transportation, healthcare, and manufacturing equipment. Many of its operating and finance leases offer the lessee the option to purchase the equipment at fair value or for a fixed purchase option; and most of the leases that do not have a purchase option include renewal provisions resulting in some leases continuing beyond initial contractual terms. The Company's leases do not include early termination options, and continued rent payments are due if leased equipment is not returned at the end of the lease.

As Lessor - Operating Leases

Operating lease income is recognized as a component of noninterest income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Lease terms range from one to seven years. Assets related to operating leases are included in other assets and the corresponding depreciation expense is recorded on a straight-line basis as a component of other noninterest expense. The net book value of leased assets totaled $23,558 and $21,749 with a residual value of $13,383 and $13,267 as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively.

10. Equity Incentive Plan

The Company historically provided stock-based awards through the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which provided for awards of restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock options, stock appreciation rights and cash awards to directors, directors emeritus, officers, employees and advisory directors. On November 14, 2022, at the Company's annual meeting, stockholders approved the 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan which provides for the same types of awards as described under the 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan. Going forward, any future grants will be made under this plan.

The cost of equity-based awards under the 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan generally is based on the fair value of the awards on their grant date. The maximum number of shares that may be utilized for awards under the plan is 1,000,000. Shares of common stock issued under the plan will be issued out of authorized but unissued shares, some or all of which may be repurchased shares.

12. Commitments and Contingencies

Loan Commitments – Legally binding commitments to extend credit are agreements to lend to a customer as long as there is no violation of any condition established in the contract. Commitments generally have fixed expiration dates or other termination clauses and may require payment of a fee. Since many commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amounts do not necessarily represent future cash requirements. In the normal course of business, there are various outstanding commitments to extend credit that are not reflected in the consolidated financial statements. At September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively, loan commitments (excluding $217,115 and $220,818 of undisbursed portions of construction loans) totaled $54,160 and $86,393 of which $26,408 and $45,533 were variable rate commitments and $27,752 and $40,860 were fixed rate commitments. The fixed rate loans had interest rates ranging from 2.11% to 12.24% at September 30, 2023 and 1.74% to 11.00% June 30, 2023, and terms ranging from three to 30 years. Pre-approved but unused lines of credit (principally second mortgage home equity loans and overdraft protection loans) totaled $672,648 and $608,169 at September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively. These amounts represent the Company's exposure to credit risk, and in the opinion of management have no more than the normal lending risk that the Company commits to its borrowers.

The Company has two types of commitments related to certain one-to-four family loans held for sale: rate lock commitments and forward loan commitments. Rate lock commitments are commitments to extend credit to a customer that has an interest rate lock and are considered derivative instruments. The rate lock commitments do not qualify for hedge accounting. In order to mitigate the risk from interest rate fluctuations, the Company enters into forward loan sale commitments such as TBAs, mandatory delivery commitments with investors, or best efforts forward sale commitments with investors. The fair value of these interest rate lock commitments was not material at September 30, 2023 or June 30, 2023.

SBIC Commitments – As of both September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the Company had committed $24,000 across eight SBIC investments with $7,984 remaining to be drawn. Although the remaining capital commitments may or may not be called in the future, under the terms of the associated limited partnership agreements, the Company's exposure will not extend beyond the amount of the original commitments.

Restrictions on Cash – In response to COVID-19, the FRB reduced the reserve requirements to zero on March 15, 2020. Prior to this change the Bank was required by regulation to maintain a varying cash reserve balance with the FRB.

Guarantees – Standby letters of credit obligate the Company to meet certain financial obligations of its customers, if, under the contractual terms of the agreement, the customers are unable to do so. The financial standby letters of credit issued by the Company are irrevocable and payment is only guaranteed upon the borrower's failure to perform its obligations to the beneficiary. Total commitments under standby letters of credit as of September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 were $54,242 and $35,007, respectively. There was no liability recorded for these letters of credit at September 30, 2023 or June 30, 2023.

Litigation – From time to time, the Company is involved in litigation matters in the ordinary course of business. These proceedings and the associated legal claims are often contested, and the outcome of individual matters is not always predictable. These claims and counter claims typically arise during the course of collection efforts on problem loans or with respect to actions to enforce liens on properties in which the Company holds a security interest. The Company is not a party to any pending legal proceedings that management believes would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

13. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair values:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

HOMETRUST BANCSHARES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars in thousands, except per share data)

Level 2: Significant other observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a company's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

A financial instrument's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets recorded at fair value. As of both September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the Company did not have any liabilities recorded at fair value.

The methods of determining the fair value of assets and liabilities presented in this note are consistent with the methodologies disclosed in Note 20 of the 2023 Form 10-K.

Financial Assets Recorded at Fair Value

A loan is considered to be collateral dependent when, based on current information and events, the Company expects repayment of the financial assets to be provided substantially through the operation or sale of the collateral and the Company has determined that the borrower is experiencing financial difficulty as of the measurement date. For real estate loans, the fair value of the loan's collateral is determined by a third party appraisal, which is then adjusted for the estimated selling and closing costs related to liquidation of the collateral (typically ranging from 8% to 12% of the appraised value). For this asset class, the actual valuation methods (income, sales comparable, or cost) vary based on the status of the project or property. Additional discounts of 5% to 15% may be applied depending on the age of the appraisals. The unobservable inputs may vary depending on the individual asset with no one of the three methods being the predominant approach. For non-real estate loans, the fair value of the loan's collateral may be determined using an appraisal, net book value per the borrower's financial statements, or aging reports, adjusted or discounted based on management's historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of the valuation, and management's expertise and knowledge of the customer and customer's business.

As used throughout this report, the terms “we,” “our,” “us,” “HomeTrust Bancshares” or the “Company” refer to HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries, including HomeTrust Bank (“HomeTrust” or "Bank") unless the context indicates otherwise.

Overview

HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc., a Maryland corporation, was formed for the purpose of becoming the holding company for HomeTrust Bank in connection with the Bank’s conversion from mutual to stock form, which was completed on July 10, 2012. As a bank holding company and financial holding company, we are regulated by the Federal Reserve. The Company has not engaged in any significant activity other than holding the stock of the Bank. As a North Carolina state-chartered bank, and member of the FRB, the Bank's primary regulators are the NCCOB and the Federal Reserve. The Bank's deposits are federally insured up to applicable limits by the FDIC. The Bank is a member of the FHLB of Atlanta, which is one of the 11 regional banks in the FHLB System. Our headquarters is located in Asheville, North Carolina.

The Bank has more than 30 locations across Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia, many of which are located in markets experiencing growth rates above the national average. Historically, our branches and facilities have primarily been located in small- to medium-sized communities, but in recent years we have implemented a strategy of expanding into larger, higher growth markets via business banking centers rather than retail-focused branches.

Our principal business consists of attracting deposits from the general public and investing those funds, along with borrowed funds, in commercial real estate loans, construction and development loans, commercial and industrial loans, equipment finance leases, municipal leases, loans secured by first and second mortgages on one-to-four family residences including home equity and other consumer loans. We also originate one-to-four family loans, SBA loans, and HELOCs to sell to third parties. In addition, we invest in debt securities issued by United States Government agencies and GSEs, corporate bonds, commercial paper, and certificates of deposit in other banks insured by the FDIC. We offer a variety of deposit accounts for individuals, businesses, and nonprofit organizations.

Our primary source of pre-tax income is net interest income. Net interest income is the difference between interest income, which is the income that we earn on our loans and investments, and interest expense, which is the interest that we pay on our deposits and borrowings. Changes in levels of interest rates affect our net interest income. A secondary source of income is noninterest income, which includes revenue we receive from providing products and services, including service charges and fees on deposit accounts, loan income and fees, gains on the sale of loans held for sale, BOLI income, and operating lease income.

An offset to net interest income is the provision for credit losses to establish the ACL at a level that provides for ECLs inherent in our loan portfolio, off balance sheet credit commitments, and available for sale debt securities. See "Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in Item 1 of our 2023 Form 10-K for further discussion, and "Note 2 – Recent Accounting Pronouncements" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further discussion of our adoption of ASU 2022-02.

Our noninterest expenses consist primarily of salaries and employee benefits, occupancy expenses, marketing and computer services, and FDIC deposit insurance premiums. Salaries and benefits consist primarily of the salaries and wages paid to our employees, payroll taxes, expenses for retirement, and other employee benefits. Occupancy expenses, which are the fixed and variable costs of buildings and equipment, consist primarily of lease payments, property taxes, depreciation charges, maintenance, and costs of utilities.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Certain of our accounting policies are important to the portrayal of our financial condition, since they require management to make difficult, complex, or subjective judgments, some of which may relate to matters that are inherently uncertain. Estimates associated with these policies are susceptible to material changes as a result of changes in facts and circumstances which could include, but are not limited to, changes in interest rates, changes in the performance of the economy, and changes in the financial condition of borrowers. The following represent our critical accounting policies:

Allowance for Credit Losses, or ACL, on Loans. The ACL on loans held for investment reflects our estimate of credit losses that will result from the inability of our borrowers to make required loan payments. We charge off loans against the ACL and subsequent recoveries, if any, increase the ACL when they are recognized. We use a systematic methodology to determine our ACL for loans held for investment and certain off-balance-sheet credit exposures. The ACL on loans held for investment is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis to present the net amount expected to be collected on the loan portfolio. We consider the effects of past events, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts on the collectability of the loan portfolio. The estimate of our ACL on loans held for investment involves a high degree of judgment; therefore, our process for determining ECLs may result in a range of ECLs. Our ACL recorded in the balance sheet reflects our best estimate within the range of ECLs. We recognize in net income the amount needed to adjust the ACL on loans held for investment and certain off-balance-sheet credit exposures for management’s current estimate of ECLs. Our ACL on loans held for investment is calculated using collectively evaluated and individually evaluated loans.

Business Combinations, Core Deposit Intangible and Acquired Loans. ASC 805 requires that we use the acquisition method of accounting for all business combinations. The acquisition method of accounting requires us as the acquirer to recognize the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the acquisition date, as well as, recognize goodwill or a gain from a bargain purchase, if appropriate. Any acquisition-related costs and restructuring costs are recognized as period expenses as incurred.

The primary identifiable intangible asset we typically record in connection with a whole bank or branch acquisition is the value of the core deposit intangible which represents the estimated value of the long-term deposit relationships acquired in the transaction. Determining the amount of identifiable intangible assets and their average lives involves multiple assumptions and estimates and is typically determined by performing a DCF analysis, which involves a combination of any or all of the following assumptions: customer attrition/runoff, alternative funding costs, deposit servicing costs, and discount rates. The core deposit intangibles are amortized using an accelerated method over the estimated useful lives of the related deposits, typically between five and 10 years. We review identifiable intangible assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.

The fair value for acquired loans at the time of acquisition is based on a variety of factors including discounted expected cash flows, adjusted for estimated prepayments and credit losses. In accordance with ASC 326, the fair value adjustment is recorded as premium or discount to the

unpaid principal balance of each acquired loan. Loans that have been identified as having experienced a more-than-insignificant deterioration in credit quality since origination are PCD loans. An ACL on PCD loans is established at the time of acquisition as part of the purchase accounting adjustments, while the remaining net premium or discount is accreted or amortized into interest income over the remaining life of the loan using the level yield method. The net premium or discount on non-PCD loans, that includes credit quality and interest rate considerations, is accreted or amortized into interest income over the remaining life of the loan using the level yield method. The Company then records the necessary ACL on the non-PCD loans through provision for credit losses expense.

Goodwill. We review goodwill for potential impairment on an annual basis during the last quarter of the fiscal year, or more often if events or circumstances indicate there may be impairment. In testing goodwill for impairment, we have the option to assess either qualitative or quantitative factors to determine whether the existence of events or circumstances leads to a determination that it is more likely than not that the estimated fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If we elect to perform a qualitative assessment and determine that an impairment is more likely than not, we are then required to perform a quantitative impairment test, otherwise no further analysis is required. Under the quantitative impairment test, the evaluation involves comparing the current fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill. If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit equals or exceeds its carrying value, goodwill is considered not to be impaired. If the carrying value exceeds estimated fair value an impairment charge is recognized for the difference, but limited by the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023

Net Income. Net income totaled $14.8 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to net income of $15.0 million, or $0.90 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2023, a decrease of $179,000, or 1.2%. The results for the three months ended September 30, 2023 were negatively impacted by an increase of $2.2 million in the provision for credit losses and a decrease of $1.7 million in net interest income, partially offset by a $1.7 million increase in noninterest income and a $1.3 million decrease in noninterest expense. Details of the changes in the various components of net income are further discussed below.

Net Interest Income. The following table presents the distribution of average assets, liabilities and equity, as well as interest income earned on average interest-earning assets and interest expense paid on average interest-bearing liabilities. All average balances are daily average balances. Nonaccruing loans have been included in the table as loans carrying a zero yield.

(1)Average loans receivable balances include loans held for sale and nonaccruing loans.

(2)Average other interest-earning assets consist of FRB stock, FHLB stock, SBIC investments and deposits in other banks.

(3)Net interest income divided by average interest-earning assets.

(4)Tax-equivalent results include adjustments to interest income of $315 and $298 for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively, calculated based on a combined federal and state tax rate of 24%.

Total interest and dividend income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $2.7 million, or 4.6%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, which was driven by a $2.4 million, or 4.2%, increase in interest income on loans. Accretion income on acquired loans of $378,000 and $973,000 was recognized during the same periods, respectively, and was included in interest income on loans.

Total interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $4.5 million, or 29.3%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The increase was the result of both increases in the average cost of funds across funding sources and an increase in average deposits and borrowings outstanding.

The following table shows the effects that changes in average balances (volume), including differences in the number of days in the periods compared, and average interest rates (rate) had on the interest earned on interest-earning assets and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities:

Provision for Credit Losses. The provision for credit losses is the amount of expense that, based on our judgment, is required to maintain the ACL at an appropriate level under the current expected credit losses model.

The following table presents a breakdown of the components of the provision for credit losses:


	Three Months Ended
(Dollars in thousands)	September 30, 2023		June 30, 2023		$ Change		% Change
Provision for credit losses
Loans	$	2,850	$	910	$	1,940	213	%
Off-balance-sheet credit exposure	(280)		(505)		225		45

Total provision for credit losses	$	2,570	$	405	$	2,165	535	%

For the quarter ended September 30, 2023, the "loans" portion of the provision for credit losses was the result of the following, offset by net charge-offs of $2.6 million during the quarter:

•$0.2 million benefit driven by changes in the loan mix.

•$0.2 million provision due to changes in the projected economic forecast, specifically the national unemployment rate, and changes in qualitative adjustments.

•$0.3 million increase in specific reserves on individually evaluated credits.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the "loans" portion of the provision for credit losses was primarily the result of the following, offset by net charge-offs of $1.2 million during the quarter:

•$0.1 million provision driven by changes in the loan mix.

•$0.3 million benefit due to changes in the projected economic forecast, specifically the national unemployment rate, and changes in qualitative adjustments.

•$0.1 million decrease in specific reserves on individually evaluated credits.

For the quarters ended September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, the amounts recorded for off-balance-sheet credit exposure were the result of changes in the balance of loan commitments, loan mix and projected economic forecast as outlined above.

Noninterest Income. Noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 increased $1.7 million, or 25.2%, when compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2023. Changes in the components of noninterest income are discussed below:


	Three Months Ended
(Dollars in thousands)	September 30, 2023		June 30, 2023		$ Change		% Change
Noninterest income
Service charges and fees on deposit accounts	$	2,318	$	2,393	$	(75)	(3)	%

BOLI income	1,749		573		1,176		205
Operating lease income	1,785		1,225		560		46

Gain on sale of premises and equipment	—		82		(82)		(100)
Other	923		714		209		29
Total noninterest income	$	8,627	$	6,888	$	1,739	25	%

•Loan income and fees: The decrease in loan income and fees was due to a $308,000 reduction in prepayment penalties quarter over quarter.

•Gain on sale of loans held for sale: The increase in the gain on sale of loans held for sale was primarily driven by HELOCs sold during the period. During the quarter ended September 30, 2023, there were $31.2 million of HELOCs sold for a gain of $197,000 compared to no HELOCs sold in the prior quarter. There were $20.3 million of residential mortgage loans originated for sale which were sold during the current quarter with gains of $251,000 compared to $22.0 million sold with gains of $236,000 in the prior quarter. Our hedging of mandatory commitments on the residential mortgage loan pipeline contributed an additional $158,000 and $152,000 in income in the same periods, respectively. Lastly, there were $12.4 million in sales of the guaranteed portion of SBA commercial loans with gains of $687,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, compared to $12.1 million sold and gains of $721,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.

•BOLI income: The increase in BOLI income was due to a $1.1 million tax-free gain on death benefit proceeds in excess of the cash surrender value of the policies. No such gains were recognized in the prior quarter.

•Operating lease income: The increase in operating lease income was the result of higher contractual earnings as well as gains or losses incurred at the end of operating leases, where we recognized a net gain of $51,000 at the end of operating leases for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 versus a net loss of $279,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.

Noninterest Expense. Noninterest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $1.3 million, or 4.4%, when compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. Changes in the components of noninterest expense are discussed below:


	Three Months Ended
(Dollars in thousands)	September 30, 2023		June 30, 2023		$ Change		% Change
Noninterest expense
Salaries and employee benefits	$	16,514	$	16,676	$	(162)	(1)	%

Total noninterest expense	$	29,564	$	30,911	$	(1,347)	(4)	%

•Marketing and advertising: The decrease in marketing and advertising was due to changes in media and product campaign spending quarter over quarter.

•Deposit insurance premiums: The increase in deposit insurance premiums was due to an increase in the rates the Company is charged for deposit insurance as well as growth in the assessment base.

•Other: The decrease was primarily the result of $552,000 in fraud losses recorded during the prior quarter versus a $16,000 net recovery of previously recorded losses in the current quarter.

Income Taxes. The amount of income tax expense is influenced by the amount of pre-tax income, the amount of tax-exempt income, changes in the statutory rate, and the effect of changes in valuation allowances maintained against deferred tax benefits. The effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 were 20.5% and 22.9%, respectively. The decline in the effective tax rate was primarily driven by the tax-free gain on BOLI death benefit proceeds in addition to other changes in permanent book/tax differences.

Comparison of Financial Condition at September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023

General. Total assets increased by $44.5 million to $4.7 billion and total liabilities increased by $31.3 million to $4.2 billion, respectively, at September 30, 2023 as compared to June 30, 2023. The majority of these changes were the result of increases in deposits, which, combined with maturing investments, were used to fund growth in loans held for sale and provide additional liquidity.

Cash and Cash Equivalents. Total cash and cash equivalents increased $21.5 million, or 7.1%, to $325.0 million at September 30, 2023 from $303.5 million at June 30, 2023.

Debt Securities Available for Sale. Debt securities available for sale decreased $17.6 million, or 11.6%, to $134.3 million at September 30, 2023 from $151.9 million at June 30, 2023. This decrease was a result of maturing investments which were used to provide additional liquidity rather than being reinvested in other securities.

Loans Held for Sale. Loans held for sale increased $36.8 million, or 21.8%, to $205.5 million at September 30, 2023 from $168.7 million at June 30, 2023. This was driven by an increase of $47.0 million, or 35.4%, in HELOCs held for sale, partially offset by a $7.9 million, or 27.3%, decrease in SBA loans held for sale and a $2.3 million, or 33.6% decrease in mortgage loans held for sale.

Loans, Net of Deferred Loan Fees and Costs. Total loans increased $1.1 million, or 0.0%, to $3.7 billion at September 30, 2023. The following table illustrates the changes within the portfolio:


	As of				Change				Percent of Total

Total loans, net of deferred loan fees and costs	$	3,659,914	$	3,658,823	$	1,091	—	%	100	%	100	%

Asset Quality. Nonperforming assets, made up entirely of nonaccrual loans for both periods, increased by $3.5 million, or 42.4%, to $11.8 million, or 0.25% of total assets, at September 30, 2023 compared to $8.3 million, or 0.18% of total assets, at June 30, 2023. Nonperforming loans to total loans was 0.32% at September 30, 2023 and 0.23% at June 30, 2023.

The ratio of classified assets to total assets increased to 0.76% at September 30, 2023 from 0.53% at June 30, 2023 as classified assets increased $10.7 million, or 43.7%, to $35.2 million at September 30, 2023 compared to $24.5 million at June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily due to a single commercial real estate non-owner occupied relationship which totaled approximately $9.0 million.

Our individually evaluated loans are comprised of loans meeting certain dollar thresholds and those on nonaccrual status, and may be evaluated for reserve purposes using either the cash flow or collateral valuation method. As of September 30, 2023, there was $7.3 million in loans individually evaluated compared to $6.8 million at June 30, 2023.

Allowance for Credit Losses on Loans. The ACL on loans was $47.4 million, or 1.30% of total loans, at September 30, 2023 compared to $47.2 million, or 1.29% of total loans, as of June 30, 2023. The drivers of this change are discussed in the "Comparison of Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023 – Provision for Credit Losses" section above.

Net loan charge-offs totaled $2.6 million, or 0.27% as a percent of average loans, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 compared to $1.2 million, or 0.13% as a percentage of average loans, for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The charge-offs recognized the past two quarters have been concentrated in our equipment finance and SBA portfolios, with the increase quarter-over-quarter being driven by the SBA portfolio.

Other Assets. Other assets increased $3.4 million, or 6.3%, to $56.5 million at September 30, 2023 from $53.1 million at June 30, 2023. The increase was primarily driven by the change in taxes receivable/payable.

Deposits. The following table summarizes the composition of our deposit portfolio as of the dates indicated:


(Dollars in thousands)	September 30, 2023		June 30, 2023		$ Change		% Change

The following bullet points provide further information regarding the composition of our deposit portfolio as of September 30, 2023:

•Total deposits increased $39.8 million, or 1.1%, during the quarter.

•The balance of uninsured deposits was $962.7 million, or 26.4% of total deposits, which included $294.8 million of collateralized deposits to municipalities.

•The balance of brokered deposits was $328.0 million, or 9.0% of total deposits.

•Commercial and consumer depositors represented 51% and 49% of total deposits, respectively.

•The average balance of our deposit accounts was $33,000.

•Our largest 25 depositors made up $541.9 million, or 15.0% of total deposits.

Liquidity Management

Management maintains a liquidity position that it believes will adequately provide for funding of loan demand and deposit run-off that may occur in the normal course of business. We rely on a number of different sources in order to meet our potential liquidity demands. The primary sources are increases in deposit accounts, wholesale borrowings, and cash flows from loan payments and the securities portfolio.

In addition to these primary sources of funds, management has several secondary sources available to meet potential funding requirements. All qualifying one-to-four family loans, HELOCs, commercial real estate loans, and FHLB of Atlanta stock are pledged as collateral to secure outstanding FHLB advances while commercial construction, indirect auto, and municipal leases are pledged as collateral to secure outstanding FRB advances. At September 30, 2023, the Company had the ability to borrow $67.7 million through FHLB advances and $62.1 million through the unused portion of a line of credit with the FRB. At this same date, the Company maintained revolving lines of credit with three unaffiliated banks, the unused portion of which totaled $144.7 million. One of these revolving lines of credit is a $40.0 million line on which HomeTrust had drawn $20.3 million, bearing interest at The Wall Street Journal prime rate plus 50 basis points, maturing on January 30, 2024, although the term may be extended for an additional year two times if no events of default have occurred.

Additionally, we classify our securities portfolio as available for sale, providing an additional source of liquidity. Management believes that our securities portfolio is of high quality and short duration, and would therefore be readily marketable. In addition, we have historically sold fixed-rate mortgage loans in the secondary market to reduce interest rate risk and to create still another source of liquidity. From time to time we also utilize brokered time deposits to supplement our other sources of funds. Brokered time deposits are obtained by utilizing an outside broker that is paid a fee. This funding requires advance notification to structure the type of deposit desired by us. Brokered deposits can vary in term from one month to several years and have the benefit of being a source of longer-term funding. We also utilize brokered deposits to help manage interest rate risk by extending the term to repricing of our liabilities, enhance our liquidity, and fund asset growth. Brokered deposits are typically from outside our primary market areas, and our brokered deposit levels may vary from time to time depending on competitive interest rate conditions and other factors. At September 30, 2023, brokered deposits totaled $328.0 million, or 9.0% of total deposits.

Liquidity management is both a daily and long-term function of business management. Excess liquidity is generally invested in short-term investments, such as overnight deposits and federal funds. On a longer term basis, we maintain a strategy of investing in various lending products and debt securities, including MBS. On a stand-alone basis we are a separate legal entity from the Bank and must provide for our own liquidity and pay our own operating expenses. Our primary source of funds consists of dividends or capital distributions from the Bank, although there are regulatory restrictions on the ability of the Bank to pay dividends. At September 30, 2023, we (on an unconsolidated basis) had liquid assets of $1.1 million.

At the Bank level, we use our sources of funds primarily to meet our ongoing commitments, pay maturing deposits and fund withdrawals, and fund loan commitments. At September 30, 2023, the total approved loan commitments and unused lines of credit outstanding amounted to $271.3 million and $672.6 million, respectively, as compared to $307.2 million and $608.2 million as of June 30, 2023. Certificates of deposit scheduled to mature in one year or less at September 30, 2023 totaled $791.2 million. It is management's policy to manage deposit rates that are competitive with other local financial institutions. Based on this management strategy, we believe that a majority of maturing deposits will remain with us.

Off-Balance Sheet Activities

In the normal course of operations, we engage in a variety of financial transactions that are not recorded in our financial statements, mainly to manage customers' requests for funding. These transactions primarily take the form of loan commitments and lines of credit and involve varying degrees of off-balance sheet credit, interest rate, and liquidity risks. For further information, see "Note 12 – Commitments and Contingencies" in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Capital Resources

HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. is a bank holding company subject to regulation by the Federal Reserve. As a bank holding company, we are subject to capital adequacy requirements of the Federal Reserve under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended and the regulations of the Federal Reserve. Our subsidiary, the Bank, an FDIC-insured, North Carolina state-chartered bank and a member of the Federal Reserve System, is supervised and regulated by the FRB and NCCOB and is subject to minimum capital requirements applicable to state member banks established by the Federal Reserve that are calculated in a manner similar to those applicable to bank holding companies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly discretionary actions by bank regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company's financial statements.

Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of the Bank’s assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Bank’s capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

At September 30, 2023, HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. and the Bank each exceeded all regulatory capital requirements. Consistent with our goals to operate a sound and profitable organization, our policy is for the Bank to maintain a “well-capitalized” status under the regulatory capital categories of the Federal Reserve. The Bank was categorized as "well-capitalized" under applicable regulatory requirements as of September 30, 2023.

HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc.'s and the Bank's actual and required minimum capital amounts and ratios are as follows:

As permitted by the interim final rule issued on March 27, 2020 by the federal banking regulatory agencies, the Company elected the option to delay the estimated impact on regulatory capital of ASU 2016-13, which was adopted on July 1, 2020. The initial adoption of ASU 2016-13 as well as 25% of the quarterly increases in the ACL subsequent to adoption (collectively the “transition adjustments”) was delayed for two years. Starting July 1, 2022, the cumulative amount of the transition adjustments became fixed and will be phased out of the regulatory capital calculations evenly over a three-year period, with 75% recognized in year three, 50% recognized in year four, and 25% recognized in year five. After five years, the temporary regulatory capital benefits will be fully reversed.

In addition to the minimum CET1, Tier 1 and total risk-based capital ratios, both HomeTrust Bancshares, Inc. and the Bank have to maintain a capital conservation buffer consisting of additional CET1 capital of more than 2.50% above the required minimum levels in order to avoid limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases, and paying discretionary bonuses based on percentages of eligible retained income that could be utilized for such actions.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There has not been any material change in the market risk disclosures contained in our 2023 Form 10-K.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

An evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Act")) as of September 30, 2023, was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and several other members of the Company's senior management. The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures in effect as of September 30, 2023, were effective in ensuring that the information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Act is: (i) accumulated and communicated to the Company's management (including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer) in a timely manner and (ii) recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms.

The Company does not expect that its disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control procedure, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control procedure are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control procedures, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty, and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls may be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by override of the control. The design of any control procedure also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control procedure, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
