Current Banking Environment and
How We are Positioned
 
 

 
24
What We See as The Role of CEO and Board …
Especially in this Environment
1. Absolute clarity of your vision, strategy, goals and tactics;
 there must be
absolute alignment between board and
 management
2. Become a master of your internal environment
 § Our authentic internal assessment of strengths,
 weaknesses and opportunities
3. Be a master of your external environment
 § What is happening with customer trends, technology,
 competition, economy, regulatory environment, etc. -
 How does this impact us?
4. Highest level of integrity and fairness in all we do
5. Passion for continuous improvement
 
 

 
25
Banking Industry Trends……
How Do We Deal with These Issues
Impediments to Growth
External Forces
 Role of traditional bank branches
 changing very rapidly
 Mobile banking fastest growing channel
 Banks of all sizes revisiting their
 business strategies, revenue generation
 models and cost structures
 Technology & customer needs, desires
 and style changing rapidly
 Traditional CRE lending very difficult to do
 Very little consumer loan growth;
 headwinds for consumer credit quality
 Growth exists only at niche players
 Mortgage banking revenues are
 extremely volatile
 Pressure to reduce or eliminate Overdraft
 and other nuisance fees by CFPB
 Regulators have no appreciation or
 incentive to see banks grow profitability
Business Issues
Shareholder Expectations
 Start bank and sell at 2 to 3x book no
 longer an option - what do shareholders of
 small privately held banks do?
 Equity markets not available to small
 banks
 Banks need to earn 10% or more ROE if
 they want to remain independent
 Consistent ROE of 12% or greater and
 ROA of 1% or greater being rewarded well
 by market
 Slow economic growth
 Low good quality consumer and business
 loan demand
 Pressure continues on margin. Days of
 3.5%-4.0% margin are gone. Banks need
 to reduce efficiency ratios
 Difficult to attract good talent
 Very difficult and inconsistent regulatory
 environment
 Shareholders want 10%+ ROE, consistent
 quality growth and strong risk
 management infrastructure
Issues facing
Boards &
CEO’s
What is our unique strategy
for revenue and profitable
growth
How do we attract and retain
best talent?
How do we take advantage of
technology?
How do we deal with growing
compliance burden?
How do we manage our risks
better than peers?
How do we lower our
efficiency ratios?

§ Innovator / disruptor / not
 branch dependent
§ Differentiated / Unique model
§ Technology savvy
Our Thesis on Current
U.S. Banking Environment
Credit Improving - Though Banks Face a Number of Operational Headwinds
§ Credit Improving
§ Quality Asset Generation Remains A Challenge
 4 Banks are starved for interest-earning assets and exploring new asset classes, competing on price and looking into specialty finance business / lending
§ NIM Compression
 4 Low rate environment for the foreseeable future will continue to compress NIM
 4 Many institutions wither betting on rates or otherwise taking excessive interest rate risk
 4 Industry NIM continues to decline
 4 Down over 100 bps since 1995
 4 Low interest rate environment, competitive pressures likely to prevent return to historical levels
§ Operational leverage
 4 Expense management is top of mind as banks try to improve efficiency in light of revenue pressure and increased regulatory / compliance costs
 4 Regulatory pressure expected to stay robust
§ New Strategies
 4 Yesterdays strategies may not be appropriate tomorrow
Critical to Have a Winning Business Model

Our Approach to Developing a Winning Business
Model
1. Must focus on both “Relationship” or “High Touch” banking combined with
 “Highly Efficient” or “High Tech”. Strategy should be unique as to not be copied
 easily
2. Attract and retain best high quality talent. Business Bankers / Relationship
 Bankers with approximately 15 years+ experience who bring a book of business
 with them
3. Compensate leaders based upon risk and profitability with both cash and equity
4. Never deviate from following critical success factors
  Only focus on very strong credit quality niches
  Have very strong risk management culture
  Have significantly lower efficiency ratio than peers to deliver sustainable
 strong profitability and growth with lower margin and lower risk profile
  Always attract and retain top quality talent
  Culture of innovation and continuous improvement

Startling Facts about Banks
§ Banks each year charge $32 billion in overdraft fees - that’s
 allowing or creating over 1 billion overdrafts each year….Why??
§ Payday lenders charge consumers another $7 billion in fees
§ That’s more than 3x what America spends on Breast Cancer and
 Lung Cancer combined
§ This is about 50% of all America spends on Food Stamps
§ Some of banking industries most profitable consumer customers
 hate banks
§ Another estimated 25% consumers are unbanked or under banked
This should not be happening in America
We hope to start, in a small way, a new revolution
 to profitably address this problem

§ New no fee banking, 25 bps higher interest savings, line of credit, 55,000 ATM’s, Personal
 Banker and more, all in the palm of your hand
§ Marketing Strategy
 § Target technology dependent younger consumers; including underserved /
 underbanked and middle income Americans
 § Capitalize on retaining at least 25% of our ~ one million student customers over a 5
 year period
 § Reach middle income markets also through Affinity Banking Groups
 § Revenue generation from debit card interchange and margin from low cost core
 deposits
 § Durbin Amendment a unique opportunity for Bank Mobile
§ Total investment not to exceed about $6.0 million by end of 2015
§ Expected to achieve profitability in 2-3 years and above average, franchise value, ROA and
