Forward guidance

Busey expects to manage expenses prudently and realize increased rates of M&M acquisition synergies during the second half of 2024.

Tailwinds

  • Anticipated quarterly pre-tax expense synergies from the M&M acquisition of $1.6 million to $1.7 million when fully realized.
  • Projected quarterly run-rate savings to be achieved by the first quarter of 2025.
  • Approximately 30% of the full quarterly savings achieved during the second quarter of 2024.
  • Expectation to continue prudently managing expenses.
  • Expectation to realize increased rates of M&M acquisition synergies during the second half of 2024.

Headwinds

  • Market competition for deposits continues.
  • Lower cost deposits continue to rotate into higher beta products.
  • Rising rates initially have a positive impact on net interest margin, as assets, in particular commercial loans, reprice more quickly and to a greater extent than liabilities
  • As deposit and funding costs increase in response to the tightening rate cycle, and we experience deposit migration into higher cost offerings and funding alternatives, some of the net interest margin expansion is reversed, which we began to experience in the first quarter of 2023.
  • Capital amounts and ratios for the second quarter of 2024 are not yet finalized and are subject to change.
