CEO Commentary

"It was a historic year for Columbia Banking System and Umpqua Bank," said Clint Stein, President and CEO. "We closed and integrated the transformational combination of the Northwest's premier banking organizations, expanding our footprint to encompass eight Western states as we achieved our cost-savings targets ahead of schedule and above our original projections. With the integration behind us, we are now turning our focus to optimizing performance and driving shareholder value. The fourth quarter was noisy with the FDIC special assessment and some one-time expense items. Our cost of funds is not immune to the higher-rate environment, as we had some 2022 vintage CDs reprice and saw a material increase in public deposits impact our margin. However, we believe neither of these items dilutes the quality of our core deposit base. Our scale, products, and services empower our talented base of associates to win business, which we believe long-term will drive consistent, repeatable performance."

–Clint Stein, President and CEO of Columbia Banking System, Inc.

4Q23 HIGHLIGHTS (COMPARED TO 3Q23)

Net Interest Income and NIM	• Net interest income decreased to $454 million from $481 million in 3Q23 due primarily to higher deposit costs that more than offset a decline in the cost of wholesale borrowings.
Net Interest Income and NIM	• Net interest margin was 3.78%, down 13 basis points from the prior quarter. Higher earning asset yields and a more profitable mix of earning assets were offset by higher deposit costs. Higher balances in public deposits and CD repricing contributed to the quarter's net interest margin contraction.

Non-Interest Income and Expense	• Non-interest income increased by $22 million due primarily to a $28 million favorable change in cumulative non-merger fair value accounting and hedges. Lower mortgage banking revenue reflects an anticipated decline in servicing revenue following the MSR asset sale that closed on September 30, 2023.
Non-Interest Income and Expense	• Non-interest expense increased by $33 million due to a $33 million FDIC special assessment recorded during the quarter and other elevated expense items, which offset lower merger-related expense.

Credit Quality	• Net charge-offs were 0.31% of average loans and leases (annualized) compared to 0.25% in the prior quarter. Charge-off activity remains primarily centered in the FinPac portfolio.
	• Provision expense of $55 million reflects changes in the economic forecasts used in credit models and portfolio migration trends.
	• Non-performing assets to total assets was 0.22% compared to 0.20% at September 30, 2023.

Capital	• Estimated total risk-based capital ratio of 11.8% and estimated common equity tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 9.6%.
Capital	• Declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.36 per common share on November 13, 2023, which was paid December 11, 2023.

Notable items	• Consolidated five branches in January 2024.
Notable items	• Incurred $7 million in merger-related expense.

Organizational Update
Columbia Banking System, Inc. ("Columbia", "we", or "our") realized $143 million in annualized net merger-related cost-savings as of December 31, 2023, outpacing the $135 million target communicated when the combination was announced. As the integration process is now largely complete, we do not intend to provide future updates on cost savings realizations. However, Columbia has a history of prudent expense management, and the company will continue to evaluate opportunities for improved efficiency as part of the normal course of business to offset franchise development investments. As previously disclosed, Umpqua Bank, the primary subsidiary of Columbia, consolidated five branches during January 2024.

On February 28, 2023, Columbia completed its merger with Umpqua Holdings Corporation ("UHC"), combining the two premier banks in the Northwest to create one of the largest banks headquartered in the West (the "merger"). Columbia's financial results for any periods ended prior to February 28, 2023 reflect UHC results only on a standalone basis. In addition, Columbia's reported financial results for the first quarter of 2023 reflect UHC financial results only until the closing of the merger after the close of business on February 28, 2023. As a result of these two factors, Columbia's financial results for each of the quarters of 2023 and the year ended December 31, 2023 may not be directly comparable to prior reported periods. The number of shares issued and outstanding, earnings per share, additional paid-in capital, and all references to share quantities or metrics of Columbia have been retrospectively restated to reflect the equivalent number of shares issued in the merger as the merger was treated as a reverse merger. Under the reverse acquisition method of accounting, the assets and liabilities of Columbia as of February 28, 2023 ("historical Columbia") were recorded at their respective fair values.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income was $454 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, down $27 million from the prior quarter. The decline reflects higher deposit costs that more than offset a decline in the cost of wholesale borrowings.

Columbia's net interest margin was 3.78% for the fourth quarter of 2023, down 13 basis points from 3.91% for the third quarter of 2023. The cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 53 basis points on a linked-quarter basis to 2.54% for the fourth quarter of 2023, which compares to 2.71% for the month of December and 2.75% at December 31, 2023. Deposit costs were impacted by the full quarter's run rate of brokered deposits added during the third quarter to replace maturing FHLB advances. Further, higher public deposit balances, which reflect seasonal tax-related trends and a focused effort to attract relationship-based public funds in local communities as we work to reduce wholesale funding, also had an impact. Public balances tend to carry a higher interest rate than most other non-maturity deposit balances. Time deposits also contributed to the quarter's increased cost of deposits as many maturing balances repriced over 200 basis points higher at the expiration of their 12- and 13-month terms. Columbia's cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 30 basis points on a linked-quarter basis to 3.02% for the fourth quarter of 2023, which compares to 3.15% for the month of December and 3.19% at December 31, 2023. A reduction in the balance of average wholesale borrowings resulted in a smaller increase in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities compared to interest-bearing deposits. Please refer to the Q4 2023 Earnings Presentation for additional net interest margin change details and interest rate sensitivity information as well as to our non-GAAP disclosures in this press release for the impact of purchase accounting accretion and amortization on individual line items.

Non-interest Income
Non-interest income was $66 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, up $22 million from the prior quarter. A $28 million favorable change in fair value adjustments and mortgage servicing rights ("MSR") hedging activity reflects a net fair value gain of $13 million in the fourth quarter, compared to a net fair value loss of $15 million in the third quarter, as detailed in our non-GAAP disclosures. This benefit was partially offset by lower mortgage servicing income following the September 30, 2023 sale of approximately one-third of Columbia's MSR assets, which reduced the serviced loan portfolio by an equivalent amount.

Non-interest Expense
Non-interest expense was $337 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, up $33 million from the prior quarter. The increase was driven by a recorded $33 million expense for the special assessment from the FDIC to replenish the Deposit Insurance Fund following bank closures earlier in 2023. The fourth quarter was also impacted by other elevated expense items that offset a $12 million decline in merger-related expense, which was $7 million in the fourth quarter. Please refer to the Q4 2023 Earnings Presentation for additional expense details, including an update on realized merger-related cost-savings through December 31, 2023.

Balance Sheet
Total consolidated assets were $52.2 billion as of December 31, 2023, essentially unchanged from September 30, 2023. Cash and cash equivalents was $2.2 billion as of December 31, 2023, a decrease of $241 million relative to September 30, 2023. Including secured off-balance sheet lines of credit, total available liquidity was $18.7 billion as of December 31, 2023, representing 36% of total assets, 45% of total deposits, and 138% of uninsured deposits. Available for sale ("AFS") securities, which are held on balance sheet at fair value, were $8.8 billion as of December 31, 2023, an increase of $326 million relative to September 30, 2023, as an increase in the fair value of the portfolio and accretion of the discount on historical Columbia securities more than offset paydowns. Columbia did not purchase any securities during the fourth quarter. Please refer to the Q4 2023 Earnings Presentation for additional details related to our securities portfolio and liquidity position.

Gross loans and leases were $37.4 billion as of December 31, 2023, an increase of $271 million relative to September 30, 2023. "Higher outstanding commercial term and line balances and other relationship-driven expansion contributed to 3% annualized loan growth in the fourth quarter," stated Chris Merrywell, President of Umpqua Bank. "Our bankers remain laser-focused on generating business founded through relationships that drive balanced growth." Please refer to the Q4 2023 Earnings Presentation for additional details related to our loan portfolio, which include underwriting characteristics, the composition of our commercial portfolios, and disclosure related to our office portfolio.

Total deposits were $41.6 billion as of December 31, 2023, essentially unchanged from September 30, 2023. "While total deposit balances were stable between September and December, the mix reflects a shift into interest-bearing demand accounts," commented Mr. Merrywell. "Non-interest bearing balance changes continue to reflect customers' use of cash, which includes tax payments and lower escrow balances during the fourth quarter. Our targeted efforts to expand our network of public deposits throughout our communities helped offset seasonal customer declines without the use of wholesale funding." Please refer to the Q4 2023 Earnings Presentation for additional details related to deposit characteristics and flows.

Credit Quality
The allowance for credit losses was $464 million, or 1.24% of loans and leases, as of December 31, 2023, compared to $438 million, or 1.18% of loans and leases, as of September 30, 2023. The provision for credit losses was $55 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, and it reflects changes in the economic forecasts used in credit models and portfolio migration trends. Please refer to the Q4 2023 Earnings Presentation for additional details related to the allowance for credit losses and other credit trends.

Net charge-offs were 0.31% of average loans and leases (annualized) for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to 0.25% for the third quarter of 2023. Net charge-off activity continued to be centered in the FinPac portfolio as bank charge-off activity was low at 0.06% of average bank loans. As of December 31, 2023, non-performing assets were $114 million, or 0.22% of total assets, compared to $106 million, or 0.20% of total assets, as of September 30, 2023.

Capital
As of December 31, 2023, Columbia's book value per common share increased to $23.95, compared to $22.21 at September 30, 2023. The linked-quarter change in book value primarily reflects a change in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income ("AOCI") to $(340) million at December 31, 2023, compared to $(680) million at the prior quarter-end. The change in AOCI is due primarily to a decrease in the tax-effected net unrealized loss on AFS securities to $322 million as of December 31, 2023, compared to $650 million as of September 30, 2023. As of December 31, 2023, 54% of the AFS securities portfolio was in an unrealized gain position. Tangible book value per common share[3] correspondingly increased to $16.12, compared to $14.22 at September 30, 2023.

Columbia's estimated total risk-based capital ratio was 11.8% and its estimated common equity tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 9.6% as of December 31, 2023, compared to 11.6% and 9.5%, respectively, as of September 30, 2023. Columbia remains above current "well-capitalized" regulatory minimums. "Our regulatory capital ratios continued to expand in the fourth quarter," stated Ron Farnsworth, Chief Financial Officer of Columbia. "We expect our capital position to continue to build over time, supporting our franchise expansion and increasing flexibility for capital return." The regulatory capital ratios as of December 31, 2023 are estimates, pending completion and filing of Columbia's regulatory reports.

We, as well as securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties, also use these measures to compare peer company operating performance. We believe that our presentation and discussion, together with the accompanying reconciliations, provides a complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business and allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to management. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitution for GAAP basis measures and results, and we strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.
