Forward guidance

Pinnacle Financial anticipates further increasing its liquidity position during the second quarter and expects 2020 annualized expense growth to be in the low to mid-single digit percentage increases in comparison to 2019.

Tailwinds

  • Continuing to increase on-balance sheet liquidity position.
  • Expects minimal impact on net interest income from additional liquidity.
  • Targeting a cash incentive award payout of approximately 50 percent for 2020.
  • Focusing hiring plan on Atlanta buildout, key revenue producer adds, and critical operational positions.
  • Believe 2020 annualized expense growth will be in the low to mid-single digit percentage increases in comparison to 2019.

Headwinds

  • Additional liquidity will have a dilutive impact on net interest margin in 2020.
  • Expenses increased in the first quarter of 2020 due in large part to the impact of COVID-19 to off-balance sheet reserves, primarily for unfunded lines of credit.
  • Reduced targeted cash incentive award for 2020 to a payout of approximately 50 percent.
  • Suspended share repurchase program.
  • Eliminated much of 2020 hiring plan.
