St. Louis Park, MN – Bridgewater Bancshares, Inc. (Nasdaq: BWB) (the Company), the parent company of Bridgewater Bank (the Bank), today announced net income of $7.8 million for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $8.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, and $11.6 million for the first quarter of 2023. Earnings per diluted common share were $0.24 for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $0.28 for the fourth quarter of 2023, and $0.37 for the first quarter of 2023.
“Bridgewater’s 2024 first quarter results were highlighted by improved balance sheet growth, including the loan portfolio and core deposits,” said Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President, Jerry Baack. “We were encouraged by an uptick in loan balances due to the increased loan demand and pipelines we began seeing in late 2023. Deposit balances, including core deposits, also rebounded nicely during the quarter, resulting in our loan-to-deposit ratio dropping below 100% for the first time since the first quarter of 2022.
“During the first quarter, we also saw net interest margin compression continue to slow, well-controlled expenses, superb asset quality, and the 29th consecutive quarter of tangible book value per share growth. While the economic environment continues to evolve, we remain optimistic about our outlook as we execute on our proven business model and continue to provide a differentiated level of service to our clients.”

Income Statement
Net Interest Margin and Net Interest Income
Net interest margin (on a fully tax-equivalent basis) for the first quarter of 2024 was 2.24%, a three basis point decline from 2.27% in the fourth quarter of 2023 and a 48 basis point decline from 2.72% in the first quarter of 2023. Core net interest margin (on a fully tax-equivalent basis), a non-GAAP financial measure which excludes the impact of loan fees, was 2.18% for the first quarter of 2024, a three basis point decline from 2.21% in the fourth quarter of 2023, and a 44 basis point decline from 2.62% in the first quarter of 2023.
● | The linked-quarter and year-over-year declines in the margin were primarily due to higher funding costs, offset partially by higher earning asset yields. |
Net interest income was $24.6 million for the first quarter of 2024, a decrease of $683,000 from $25.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, and a decrease of $3.9 million from $28.6 million in the first quarter of 2023.
● | The linked-quarter and year-over year decreases in net interest income were primarily due to higher rates paid on deposits and growth in the rising interest rate environment, which outpaced the repricing of the loan and securities portfolios. |
Interest income was $58.7 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $116,000 from $58.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, and an increase of $6.7 million from $52.0 million in the first quarter of 2023.
● | The yield on interest earning assets (on a fully tax-equivalent basis) was 5.28% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 5.22% in the fourth quarter of 2023 and 4.91% in the first quarter of 2023. |
● | The linked-quarter increase in the yield on interest earning assets was primarily due to the purchase of higher yielding securities and loans repricing at yields accretive to the existing portfolio. |
● | The year-over-year increase in the yield on interest earning assets was primarily due to growth and repricing of the loan and securities portfolios in the rising interest rate environment. |
● | Loan interest income and loan fees remain the primary contributing factors to the changes in the yield on interest earning assets. The aggregate loan yield increased to 5.38% in the first quarter of 2024, five basis points higher than 5.33% in the fourth quarter of 2023, and 32 basis points higher than 5.06% in the first quarter of 2023. |
● | Despite the overall decrease in fee recognition, the core loan yield continues to rise as new loan originations and the existing portfolio reprice in the higher rate environment. |
A summary of interest and fees recognized on loans for the periods indicated is as follows:

Interest expense was $34.0 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $799,000 from $33.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, and an increase of $10.6 million from $23.4 million in the first quarter of 2023.
● | The cost of interest bearing liabilities was 4.03% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 3.97% in the fourth quarter of 2023 and 3.03% in the first quarter of 2023. |
● | The linked-quarter increase in the cost of interest bearing liabilities was primarily due to higher rates paid on deposits and changes in the deposit mix. |

Page 3 of 16
Interest expense on deposits was $30.2 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $742,000 from $29.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, and an increase of $13.8 million from $16.4 million in the first quarter of 2023.
● | The cost of total deposits was 3.32% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 3.19% in the fourth quarter of 2023 and 2.01% in the first quarter of 2023. |
● | The linked-quarter increase in the cost of total deposits was primarily due to client demands for higher interest rates, increased competition, and changes in the mix of deposits. |
● | The year-over-year increase in the cost of total deposits was primarily due to upward repricing of the deposit portfolio in the higher interest rate environment. |
Provision for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses on loans was $850,000 for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $0 for the fourth quarter of 2023 and $1.5 million for the first quarter of 2023.
● | The provision for credit losses on loans recorded in the first quarter of 2024 was primarily attributable to the increased growth of the loan portfolio. |
● | The allowance for credit losses on loans to total loans was 1.36% at each of March 31, 2024, December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023. |
The provision for credit losses for off-balance sheet credit exposures was a negative provision of $100,000 for the first quarter of 2024, compared to a negative provision of $250,000 for the fourth quarter of 2023 and a negative provision of $875,000 for the first quarter of 2023.
● | The negative provision during the first quarter of 2024 was due to a reduction in outstanding unfunded commitments primarily attributable to the migration to funded loans, as well as a moderation in volume of newly originated projects with unfunded commitments. |
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income was $1.6 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $141,000 from $1.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 and a decrease of $393,000 from $1.9 million for the first quarter of 2023.
● | The linked-quarter increase was primarily due to a net gain on sale of securities and an increase in other income, offset partially by lower letter of credit fees. |
● | The year-over-year decrease was primarily due to lower letter of credit fees and $299,000 of FHLB prepayment income recognized in the previous year which did not reoccur, offset partially by a net gain on sale of securities. |
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense was $15.2 million for the first quarter of 2024, a decrease of $551,000 from $15.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023 and an increase of $1.1 million from $14.1 million for the first quarter of 2023.
● | The linked-quarter decrease was primarily due to decreases in salaries and employee benefits, FDIC insurance assessment and other expense, offset partially by an increase in professional and consulting expense. |
● | The year-over-year increase was primarily attributable to increases in salaries and employee benefits, industry-wide increases in the FDIC insurance assessment, higher professional and consulting fees, derivative collateral fees and information technology and telecommunications, offset partially by decreases in occupancy and equipment. |
● | The efficiency ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure, was 58.2% for the first quarter of 2024, compared to 58.8% for the fourth quarter of 2023, and 45.9% for the first quarter of 2023. |
● | The Company had 255 full-time equivalent employees at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, compared to 246 employees at March 31, 2023. |
Income Taxes
The effective combined federal and state income tax rate for the first quarter of 2024 was 23.5%, an increase from 21.0% for the fourth quarter of 2023 and a decrease from 26.4% for the first quarter of 2023.
● | The linked-quarter increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the timing and delivery of tax credits in the fourth quarter of 2023. |

Total deposits at March 31, 2024 were $3.81 billion, an increase of $97.3 million, or 10.5% annualized, over total deposits of $3.71 billion at December 31, 2023, and an increase of $396.1 million, or 11.6%, over total deposits of $3.41 billion at March 31, 2023.
● | Core deposits, defined as total deposits excluding brokered deposits and time deposits greater than $250,000, increased $90.3 million, or 14.3% annualized, from the fourth quarter of 2023. Growth in core deposits was primarily due to increased balances of existing clients and new client acquisitions. Based on the nature of these inflows, management believes core deposits could fluctuate in future periods as deposit growth is not always linear. |
● | Brokered deposits, which declined for the first time since the fourth quarter of 2021, continue to be used as a supplemental funding source, as needed. |
● | Uninsured deposits were 26% of total deposits as of March 31, 2024 and 24% of total deposits as of December 31, 2023. |

Use of Non-GAAP financial measures
In addition to the results presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), the Company routinely supplements its evaluation with an analysis of certain non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to the related GAAP measures, provide meaningful information to investors to help them understand the Company’s operating performance and trends, and to facilitate comparisons with the performance of peers. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Reconciliations of non-GAAP disclosures used in this earnings release to the comparable GAAP measures are provided in the accompanying tables.
Forward-Looking Statements
This earnings release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements concerning plans, estimates, calculations, forecasts and projections with respect to the anticipated future performance of the Company. These statements are often, but not always, identified by words such as “may”, “might”, “should”, “could”, “predict”, “potential”, “believe”, “expect”, “continue”, “will”, “anticipate”, “seek”, “estimate”, “intend”, “plan”, “projection”, “would”, “annualized”, “target” and “outlook”, or the negative version of those words or other comparable words of a future or forward-looking nature.
Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Our actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following: interest rate risk, including the effects of significant rate increases by the Federal Reserve since 2020; fluctuations in the values of the securities held in our securities portfolio, including as the result of changes in interest rates; business and economic conditions generally and in the financial services industry, nationally and within our market area, including high rates of inflation and possible recession; the effects of developments and events in the financial services industry, including the large-scale deposit withdrawals over a short period of time that resulted in recent bank failures; loan concentrations in our portfolio; the overall health of the local and national real estate market; our ability to successfully manage credit risk; our ability to maintain an adequate level of allowance for credit losses on loans; new or revised accounting standards; the concentration of large loans to certain borrowers; the concentration of large deposits from certain clients, who have balances above current FDIC insurance limits; our ability to successfully manage liquidity risk, which may increase our dependence on non-core funding sources such as brokered deposits, and negatively impact our cost of funds; our ability to raise additional capital to implement our business plan; our ability to implement our growth strategy and manage costs effectively; the composition of our senior leadership team and our ability to attract and retain key personnel; talent and labor shortages and high rates of employee turnover; the occurrence of fraudulent activity, breaches or failures of our or our third-party vendors’ information security controls or cybersecurity-related incidents, including as a result of sophisticated attacks using artificial intelligence and similar tools; interruptions involving our information technology and telecommunications systems or third-party servicers; competition in the financial services industry, including from nonbank competitors such as credit unions and “fintech” companies; the effectiveness of our risk management framework; the commencement and outcome of litigation and other legal proceedings and regulatory actions against us; the impact of recent and future legislative and regulatory changes, including in response to the recent bank failures; risks related to climate change and the negative impact it may have on our customers and their businesses; the imposition of other governmental policies impacting the value of products produced by our commercial borrowers; severe weather, natural disasters, wide spread disease or pandemics, acts of war or terrorism or other adverse external events, including the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the Russian invasion of Ukraine; potential impairment to the goodwill the Company recorded in connection with our past acquisition; changes to U.S. or state tax laws, regulations and guidance, including the 1% excise tax on stock buybacks by publicly traded companies; potential changes in federal policy and at regulatory agencies as a result of the upcoming 2024 presidential election; and any other risks described in the “Risk Factors” sections of reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Disclaimer Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements concerning plans, estimates, calculations, forecasts and projections with respect to the anticipated future performance of the Company. These statements are often, but not always, identified by words such as “may”, “might”, “should”, “could”, “predict”, “potential”, “believe”, “expect”, “continue”, “will”, “anticipate”, “seek”, “estimate”, “intend”, “plan”, “projection”, “would”, “annualized”, “target” and “outlook”, or the negative version of those words or other comparable words of a future or forward-looking nature. Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Our actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following: interest rate risk, including the effects of significant rate increases by the Federal Reserve since 2020; fluctuations in the values of the securities held in our securities portfolio, including as the result of changes in interest rates; business and economic conditions generally and in the financial services industry, nationally and within our market area, including high rates of inflation and possible recession; the effects of recent developments and events in the financial services industry, including the large-scale deposit withdrawals over a short period of time that resulted in recent bank failures; loan concentrations in our portfolio; the overall health of the local and national real estate market; our ability to successfully manage credit risk; our ability to maintain an adequate level of allowance for credit losses; new or revised accounting standards; the concentration of large loans to certain borrowers; the concentration of large deposits from certain clients, who have balances above current FDIC insurance limits; our ability to successfully manage liquidity risk, which may increase our dependence on non-core funding sources such as brokered deposits, and negatively impact our cost of funds; our ability to raise additional capital to implement our business plan; our ability to implement our growth strategy and manage costs effectively; the composition of our senior leadership team and our ability to attract and retain key personnel; talent and labor shortages and high rates of employee turnover; the occurrence of fraudulent activity, breaches or failures of our or our third-party vendors’ information security controls or cybersecurity-related incidents, including as a result of sophisticated attacks using artificial intelligence and similar tools; interruptions involving our information technology and telecommunications systems or third-party servicers; competition in the financial services industry, including from nonbank competitors such as credit unions and “fintech” companies; the effectiveness of our risk management framework; the commencement and outcome of litigation and other legal proceedings and regulatory actions against us; the impact of recent and future legislative and regulatory changes, including in response to the recent bank failures; risks related to climate change and the negative impact it may have on our customers and their businesses; the imposition of other governmental policies impacting the value of products produced by our commercial borrowers; severe weather, natural disasters, wide spread disease or pandemics, acts of war or terrorism or other adverse external events, including the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the Russian invasion of Ukraine; potential impairment to the goodwill the Company recorded in connection with our past acquisition; changes to U.S. or state tax laws, regulations and guidance, including the 1% excise tax on stock buybacks by publicly traded companies; potential changes in federal policy and at regular agencies as a result of the upcoming 2024 presidential election; and any other risks described in the “Risk Factors” sections of reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Any forward-looking statement made by us in this presentation is based only on information currently available to us and speaks only as of the date on which it is made. The Company undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise. Certain of the information contained in this presentation is derived from information provided by industry sources. Although the Company believe that such information is accurate and that the sources from which it has been obtained are reliable, the Company cannot guarantee the accuracy of, and have not independently verified, such information. Use of Non-GAAP financial measures In addition to the results presented in accordance with U.S. General Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the Company routinely supplements its evaluation with an analysis of certain non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to the related GAAP measures, provide meaningful information to investors to help them understand the Company’s operating performance and trends, and to facilitate comparisons with the performance of peers. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Reconciliations of non-GAAP disclosures to the comparable GAAP measures are provided in this presentation. 2 |
