KNOXVILLE, TN -
January 23, 2018
- SmartFinancial, Inc. ("SmartFinancial"; NASDAQ: SMBK), announced today net income available to common shareholders of

per diluted share a year ago, which included $2.4 million of tax charges related to changes in tax law. On November 1, 2018, SmartFinancial completed the acquisition of Foothills Bancorp, Inc. and Foothills Bank & Trust and this quarter includes two months of the results of the acquired companies. This quarter also included
$1.3 million
in pre-tax merger related expenses and
$1.6 million
in tax benefit related adjustments from director options that were previously exercised.
Billy Carroll stated, "We are extremely proud of our accomplishments in the fourth quarter and for the year. 2018 was our company's busiest yet. We converted two banks and closed on a third, but just as important was our continued strong organic growth that is building a great core bank. In addition, the announcement of our merger with Entegra Financial Corp. positions our company to take a transformative step in 2019. We are very excited about what the future holds."
SmartFinancial Chairman, Miller Welborn, concluded, "I've been very pleased with what our team has accomplished this year and the fourth quarter showed our continued positive trends on our financial performance. Closing the Foothills Bank deal during the quarter was a great addition to our Knoxville, TN market area, as well as the new talent we added to the team during the year, both of which will yield great upside in 2019.

Non-GAAP Financial Matters
Statements included in this press release include non-GAAP financial measures and should be read along with the accompanying tables, which provide a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures. SmartFinancial management uses several non-GAAP financial measures, including: (i) net operating earnings available to common shareholders; (ii) operating efficiency ratio; (iii) tangible common equity; and (iv) net operating return on average assets, in its analysis of the company's performance. Net operating earnings available to common shareholders excludes the following from net income available to common shareholders: securities gains and losses, merger related expenses, the effect of the December, 2017 tax law change on deferred tax assets, and the income tax effect of adjustments. The operating efficiency ratio excludes securities gains and losses and merger related expenses from the efficiency ratio. Tangible common equity excludes goodwill and other intangible assets. Net operating return on average assets is annualized net operating income divided by GAAP total average assets. Management believes that non-GAAP financial measures provide additional useful information that allows readers to evaluate the ongoing performance of the company and provide meaningful comparisons to its peers. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of performance or financial condition as promulgated under GAAP, and investors should consider SmartFinancial's performance and financial condition as reported under GAAP and all other relevant information when assessing the performance or financial condition of the company. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the results or financial condition as reported under GAAP.
