Forward guidance

Pinnacle anticipates continued loan growth and expense management for the remainder of 2021 and into 2022.

Tailwinds

  • 2021 end-of-year loan balances should exceed 2020 end-of-year balances by 2 to 5 percent.
  • 2022 loan growth should produce low-double digit growth.
  • Exploring several options that provide a reasonable return while not resulting in excess risk to tangible book value growth.
  • Reduction in the allowance for credit losses ratio will continue for the next several quarters.
  • Total expenses for the fourth quarter of 2021 should be flat to down from the amounts reported in the second and third quarters of 2021.

Headwinds

  • Ongoing uncertain economic climate.
  • Linked-quarter decline in net interest margin.
  • Increase in on-balance sheet liquidity driven primarily by forgiveness and paydowns of PPP loans during the quarter.
  • Loan yields decreased by 5 basis points in the third quarter of 2021, which offset a 3 basis point decrease in deposit rates.
  • Expense growth should range between 8 to 11 percent in comparison to 2021
