TriState Capital Reports Record Revenue, Pre-Tax Income and Earnings for the Second Quarter of 2018TriState Capital Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSC) reported record pre-tax income and earnings resulting from increasing revenues and operating leverage in the three months ended June 30, 2018, as loans, deposits and assets under management (AUM) grew at double-digit rates in the second quarter. The parent company of TriState Capital Bank and Chartwell Investment Partners grew second quarter 2018 diluted earnings per share (EPS) to $0.48, including a net benefit of $0.08 primarily from a tax credit investment. EPS grew by 65.5% from $0.29 in the second quarter of 2017 and by 33.3% from $0.36 in the first quarter of 2018. Pre-tax income grew to a record $15.6 million, increasing 36.0% from the prior year period and 16.9% from the linked quarter. "The company's second quarter results, including record pre-tax income, are the product of effective and timely execution of our growth strategy across our commercial banking, private banking, and investment management businesses," Chairman and Chief Executive Officer James F. Getz said. "Importantly, all three of these business lines produced healthy organic growth, as TriState Capital Bank continued to expand loan and deposit balances at rates in excess of 20% and Chartwell delivered significant growth in assets under management. We fully expect our momentum to continue through the end of 2018 and beyond, as we believe TriState Capital has the strategy, distribution, products, talent and capital necessary to maintain a high level of performance for our clients and investors over the long term. We are doing well by helping our clients do well." Net income available to common stockholders was $13.8 million in the second quarter of 2018, increasing by 64.2% from $8.4 million in the prior year period and 33.0% from $10.4 million in the first quarter of 2018. SECOND QUARTER 2018 HIGHLIGHTS
REVENUE GROWTH TriState Capital's record total revenue of $41.3 million in the second quarter 2018 grew 23.2% from $33.5 million in the same period last year and 10.6% from $37.3 million in the first quarter of 2018. Net interest income (NII) for the second quarter 2018 grew $6.8 million, or 30.7%, year-over-year to a record $28.8 million. Compared to the linked quarter, NII increased by $2.5 million, or 9.6%, from $26.3 million. Net interest margin grew to 2.38% in the second quarter of 2018, increasing by 15 basis points from the prior year quarter and 3 basis points from the linked quarter, resulting from loan yield expansion and lower-cost deposits gathered through TriState Capital's liquidity and treasury management products and services. Non-interest income totaled $12.5 million in the second quarter 2018, compared to $11.7 million in the second quarter of 2017 and $11.1 million in the linked quarter. TriState Capital's non-interest income is largely made up of Chartwell investment management fees, which grew to $9.7 million in the second quarter of 2018, increasing 6.1% from $9.1 million in the second quarter of 2017 and 8.7% from $8.9 million in the first quarter of 2018. Other non-interest income was $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2018, compared to $2.3 million in the year-ago quarter and $2.2 million in the linked quarter, primarily reflecting borrower-facing interest rate swap activity. OPERATING LEVERAGE TriState Capital Bank's efficiency ratio for the first half of 2018 improved to 52.38%, down 409 basis points from 56.47% in the comparable year-ago period, as investments made in talent and building scale continue to increasingly drive revenue growth while building incremental operating leverage. Second quarter 2018 non-interest expense of $25.3 million included non-recurring expenses of approximately $0.01 per share incurred in connection with the previously disclosed May 2018 secondary public offering of TriState Capital common stock. Non-interest expense totaled $21.8 million in the year-ago period and $23.9 million in the first quarter of 2018. The company regularly evaluates opportunities to prudently manage income tax expense, including through high-quality tax credit investments that meet TriState Capital Bank's underwriting criteria. Accordingly, TriState Capital's effective tax rate was 6.2% in the second quarter of 2018, reflecting a tax credit investment that will reduce the company's full-year 2018 tax liability. The company's effective rate is currently expected to be approximately 14% for full-year 2018. Net income available to common stockholders and EPS in the second quarter of 2018 reflect $762,000 payable for the company's first quarterly cash dividend on its Series A Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, declared in April. BALANCE SHEET GROWTH TriState Capital continued the strong organic growth of both sides of its balance sheet, expanding the number and depth of its relationships with middle-market commercial customers, as well as the high-net-worth clients the bank serves through registered investment advisors and other financial intermediaries in its national referral network. Average loans totaled a record $4.38 billion in the second quarter of 2018, growing 21.0% from $3.62 billion in the same period last year and 5.1% from $4.17 billion in the linked quarter. Loans at June 30, 2018 totaled $4.55 billion, growing by $781.6 million, or 20.7%, from balances at June 30, 2017 and $250.2 million, or 5.8%, from March 31, 2018. Private banking loans totaled $2.49 billion at June 30, 2018, increasing by $520.0 million, or 26.4%, from one year prior and $146.1 million, or 6.2%, from the end of the linked quarter. Commercial loans totaled $2.06 billion at June 30, 2018, increasing by $261.6 million, or 14.5%, from the end of the year-ago quarter and $104.0 million, or 5.3%, from the end of the linked quarter. Deposits at June 30, 2018 totaled $4.44 billion, growing by $911.3 million, or 25.8%, from June 30, 2017 and $342.2 million, or 8.3%, from March 31, 2018. ASSET SENSITIVITY TriState Capital continues to manage an asset-sensitive balance sheet. At June 30, 2018, 92% of the company's loan portfolio was floating rate and 24% of deposits were fixed-rate certificates of deposit. This positioning provides significant flexibility to manage interest rate risk in changing markets. The bank's yield on total loans averaged 4.09% during the second quarter of 2018, compared to 3.35% in the same period last year and 3.80% in the linked quarter. TriState Capital's total cost of funds for all deposits and interest-bearing liabilities averaged 1.67% during the second quarter of 2018, compared to 1.08% in the same period last year and 1.43% in the linked quarter. The bank's cost of total deposits averaged 1.63% during the second quarter of 2018, compared to 1.02% in the same period last year and 1.38% in the linked quarter. INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT For the quarter ended June 30, 2018, Chartwell grew total AUM to $9.55 billion, increasing 19.4% from $8.00 billion at June 30, 2017 and 14.5% from $8.34 billion at March 31, 2018. Excluding $1.07 billion in client AUM acquired from Columbia Partners, L.L.C. on April 6, 2018, Chartwell's new business and new flows from existing accounts of $372 million and market appreciation of $228 million more than offset outflows of $457 million in the second quarter of 2018. Chartwell's weighted average fee rate was 0.41% at June 30, 2018. Investment management fee revenue grew to $9.7 million in the second quarter of 2018, increasing 6.1% from $9.1 million in the second quarter of 2017 and 8.7% from $8.9 million in the first quarter of 2018. Approximately $516,000 of Chartwell's second quarter revenue is attributed to client AUM acquired in April 2018. ASSET QUALITY TriState Capital maintained strong asset quality metrics in the second quarter of 2018, reflecting the company's disciplined credit culture and the expansion of its private banking non-purpose margin loans secured by marketable securities. Private banking loans comprised 54.6% of the total loan portfolio at June 30, 2018, while commercial real estate loans and commercial and industrial loans comprised 29.1% and 16.3% of total loans, respectively. Non-performing assets (NPAs) declined to $6.0 million, or 0.11% of total assets, at June 30, 2018, compared to $11.7 million, or 0.27%, at June 30, 2017 and $6.1 million, or 0.12%, at March 31, 2018. Non-performing loans (NPLs) declined to $2.4 million, or 0.05% of total loans, at June 30, 2018, compared to $7.8 million, or 0.21%, at June 30, 2017 and $2.5 million, or 0.06%, March 31, 2018. Adverse-rated credits were $30.0 million, or 0.66% of total loans, at June 30, 2018, compared to $33.8 million, or 0.90%, at June 30, 2017 and $29.0 million, or 0.67%, at March 31, 2018. The company recorded net recoveries of $88,000 in the second quarter of 2018, compared to net charge-offs of $733,000, or 0.08% of average total loans, in the year-ago quarter and net recoveries of $206,000 in the linked quarter. TriState Capital's provision for loan loss expense was $415,000 in the second quarter of 2018, compared to $516,000 in the second quarter of 2017 and $195,000 for the first quarter of 2018. The company's allowance for loan losses (ALL) represented 0.34% of total loans at June 30, 2018, compared to 0.42% at June 30, 2017 and 0.34% at March 31, 2018, reflecting its declining NPLs as well as the lower levels of provision required by the low risk profile of the bank's growing proportion of private banking loans in its portfolio. CAPITAL STRENGTH AND FLEXIBILITY As of June 30, 2018, TriState Capital Holdings reported regulatory capital ratios of 12.66% for total risk-based capital, 12.06% for tier 1 risk-based capital, 10.94% for common equity tier 1 risk-based capital, and 7.68% for tier 1 leverage.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES This news release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Specifically, TriState Capital reviews and reports tangible common equity, tangible book value per common share, EBITDA, total revenue and efficiency ratio. Although TriState Capital believes non-GAAP financial measures provide a greater understanding of its business, these measures are not necessarily comparable to similar measures that may be presented by other companies. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Where non-GAAP disclosures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found within this news release and accompanying tables.
TRISTATE CAPITAL HOLDINGS, INC. NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES The information set forth above contains certain financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures are "tangible common equity," "tangible book value per common share," "EBITDA," "adjusted EBITDA," "total revenue," and "efficiency ratio." Although we believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide a greater understanding of our business, these measures are not necessarily comparable to similar measures that may be presented by other companies. "Tangible common equity" is defined as common shareholders' equity reduced by intangible assets, including goodwill. We believe this measure is important to management and investors to better understand and assess changes from period to period in common shareholders' equity exclusive of changes in intangible assets. Intangible assets are created when we buy businesses which add relationships and revenue to our Company. Intangible assets have the effect of increasing both equity and assets, while not increasing our tangible equity or tangible assets. "Tangible book value per common share" is defined as common shareholders' equity reduced by intangible assets, including goodwill, divided by common shares outstanding. We believe this measure is important to many investors who are interested in changes from period to period in book value per common share exclusive of changes in intangible assets. "EBITDA" and "Adjusted EBITDA" are defined as net income before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization expenses, adjusted for acquisition related items. We use adjusted EBITDA particularly to assess the strength of our investment management business. We believe this measure is important because it allows management and investors to better assess our investment management performance in relation to our core operating earnings, excluding certain non-cash items and the volatility that is associated with certain one-time items and other discrete items that are unrelated to our core business. "Total revenue" is defined as net interest income and non-interest income, excluding gains and losses on the sale and call of debt securities. We believe adjustments made to our operating revenue allow management and investors to better assess our operating revenue by removing the volatility that is associated with certain items that are unrelated to our core business. "Efficiency ratio" is defined as non-interest expense, excluding acquisition related items and intangible amortization expense, where applicable, divided by our total revenue. We believe this measure, particularly at the Bank, allows management and investors to better assess our operating expenses in relation to our core operating revenue by removing the volatility that is associated with certain one-time items and other discrete items that are unrelated to our core business.
