St. Louis Park, MN – Bridgewater Bancshares, Inc. (Nasdaq: BWB) (the Company), the parent company of Bridgewater Bank (the Bank), today announced net income of $8.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to $8.7 million for the third quarter of 2024, and $8.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. Earnings per diluted common share were $0.26 for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to $0.27 for the third quarter of 2024, and $0.28 for the fourth quarter of 2023. Adjusted net income was $8.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to $8.8 million for the third quarter of 2024, and $8.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. Adjusted earnings per diluted common share were $0.27 for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to $0.28 for the third quarter of 2024, and $0.28 for the fourth quarter of 2023.

“Bridgewater finished the year with positive momentum as the fourth quarter saw robust balance sheet growth, net interest margin expansion, superb asset quality, and the closing of our acquisition of First Minnetonka City Bank,” said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Jerry Baack. “Core deposit growth was very strong and loan balances rebounded nicely as loan demand increased later in the year. We were also pleased to see margin expansion during the quarter as our balance sheet was well-positioned for recent Fed rate cuts.

“In December, we welcomed new team members and clients as our acquisition of First Minnetonka City Bank was completed just 107 days after it was announced last August. We believe this acquisition, coupled with the strong core deposit growth and increased liquidity generated in 2024, will allow us to be more offensive-minded and return to more normalized levels of profitable growth in 2025.”

Income Statement

Net Interest Margin and Net Interest Income

Net interest margin (on a fully tax-equivalent basis) for the fourth quarter of 2024 was 2.32%, an eight basis point increase from 2.24% in the third quarter of 2024, and a five basis point increase from 2.27% in the fourth 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 2.25% for the fourth quarter of 2024, a nine basis point increase from 2.16% in the third quarter of 2024, and a four basis point increase from 2.21% in the fourth quarter of 2023.

●

Net interest margin expanded to 2.32% in the fourth quarter of 2024 primarily due to lower costs of deposits and increased balances in the securities and loan portfolios.

●

Excluding the stub period impact of the acquisition of FMCB during the quarter, total net interest margin (on a tax-equivalent basis) for the fourth quarter of 2024 was 2.30%.

●

The year-over-year expansion in margin was primarily due to increased balances in the securities and loan portfolios at higher yields, offset partially by higher deposit costs.

Net interest income was $27.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase of $1.4 million from $25.6 million in the third quarter of 2024, and an increase of $1.7 million from $25.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.

●

The linked-quarter increase in net interest income was primarily due to decreased rates paid on deposits.

●

The year-over year increase in net interest income was primarily due to growth and higher yields in the securities portfolio and higher yields on loans, offset partially by growth and higher rates on deposits.

Interest income was $63.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase of $297,000 from $63.0 million in the third quarter of 2024, and an increase of $4.8 million from $58.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.

●

The yield on interest earning assets (on a fully tax-equivalent basis) was 5.40% in the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to 5.48% in the third quarter of 2024, and 5.22% in the fourth quarter of 2023.

●

The linked-quarter decrease in the yield on interest earning assets was primarily due to higher cash and securities balances at lower yields and lower loan fees collected during the quarter.

●

The year-over-year increase in the yield on interest earning assets was primarily due to repricing of the securities and loan portfolios in the higher interest rate environment.

●

The aggregate loan yield decreased to 5.55% in the fourth quarter of 2024, two basis points lower than 5.57% in the third quarter of 2024, and 22 basis points higher than 5.33% in the fourth quarter of 2023.

●

Core loan yield remained stable at 5.47% in the fourth quarter of 2024.

A summary of interest and fees recognized on loans for the periods indicated is as follows:


	Three Months Ended
	December 31, 2024		September 30, 2024		June 30, 2024		March 31, 2024		December 31, 2023
Interest	5.47	%	5.47	%	5.42	%	5.31	%	5.25	%
Fees	0.08		0.10		0.08		0.07		0.08
Yield on Loans	5.55	%	5.57	%	5.50	%	5.38	%	5.33	%

Interest expense was $36.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, a decrease of $1.1 million from $37.4 million in the third quarter of 2024, and an increase of $3.1 million from $33.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.

●

The cost of interest bearing liabilities was 4.06% in the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to 4.27% in the third quarter of 2024, and 3.97% in the fourth quarter of 2023.

●

The linked-quarter decrease in the cost of interest bearing liabilities was primarily due to lower rates paid on deposits and a decrease in brokered deposit balances.

●

The year-over-year increase in the cost of interest bearing liabilities was primarily due to the upward repricing of the deposit portfolio in the higher rate environment, offset partially by a decrease in brokered deposit balances.

Page 4 of 18

Interest expense on deposits was $32.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, a decrease of $1.4 million from $34.2 million in the third quarter of 2024, and an increase of $3.4 million from $29.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.

●

The cost of total deposits was 3.40% in the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to 3.58% in the third quarter of 2024, and 3.19% in the fourth quarter of 2023.

●

The linked-quarter decrease in the cost of total deposits was primarily due to interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve and the reduction of higher cost funding; brokered deposits decreased during the quarter by $75.2 million, or 8.3%.

●

The year-over-year increase in the cost of total deposits was primarily due to the upward repricing of the deposit portfolio in the higher interest rate environment.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses on loans was $1.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, which included a $950,000 provision for non-purchase credit deteriorated (PCD) loans acquired in the FMCB transaction. The provision for credit losses on loans was $-0- for both the third quarter of 2024 and the fourth quarter of 2023.

●

The provision for credit losses on loans recorded in the fourth quarter of 2024 was primarily attributable to the acquisition of FMCB and growth in the loan portfolio.

●

The allowance for credit losses on loans to total loans was 1.35% at December 31, 2024, compared to 1.38% at September 30, 2024, and 1.36% at December 31, 2023.

The provision for credit losses for off-balance sheet credit exposures was $725,000 for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to $-0- for the third quarter of 2024, and a negative provision of $250,000 for the fourth quarter of 2023.

●

A provision was recorded during the fourth quarter of 2024 due to an increase in the volume of newly originated loans with unfunded commitments in the commercial and construction and land development segments.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income was $2.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase of $1.0 million from $1.5 million for the third quarter of 2024, and an increase of $1.1 million from $1.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2023.

●

The linked-quarter increase was primarily due to higher letter of credit fees and swap fees. There was no material stub period impact from the completion of the FMCB transaction in the fourth quarter of 2024.

●

The year-over-year increase was primarily due to higher letter of credit fees and swap fees.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense was $16.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, an increase of $1.1 million from $15.8 million for the third quarter of 2024 and an increase of $1.1 million from $15.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023.

●

The linked-quarter increase was primarily due to increases in salaries and employee benefits and merger-related expenses.

●

Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2024 included $488,000 of merger-related expenses, compared to $224,000 for the third quarter of 2024.

●

The stub period impact from the completion of the FMCB transaction to noninterest expense, excluding merger-related expenses, was $199,000 for the fourth quarter of 2024.

●

The year-over-year increase was primarily attributable to increases in salaries and employee benefits and merger-related expenses, offset partially by a decrease in the FDIC insurance assessment, which resulted from decreased brokered deposits and moderated loan growth.

●

The efficiency ratio, a non-GAAP financial measure, was 56.8% for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to 58.0% for the third quarter of 2024, and 58.8% for the fourth quarter of 2023.

●

The Company had 290 full-time equivalent employees at December 31, 2024, compared to 265 at September 30, 2024, and 255 at December 31, 2023. The increase during the quarter was largely driven by the addition of 25 new employees from the acquisition of FMCB.

Income Taxes

The effective combined federal and state income tax rate was 22.0% for the fourth quarter of 2024, compared to 23.6% for the third quarter of 2024, and 21.0% for the fourth quarter of 2023.

Total deposits at December 31, 2024 were $4.09 billion, an increase of $339.3 million, or 9.1%, over total deposits of $3.75 billion at September 30, 2024, and an increase of $376.8 million, or 10.2%, over total deposits of $3.71 billion at December 31, 2023.

●

Total deposit balances included $225.7 million of deposits acquired in the FMCB transaction as of December 31, 2024.

●

Core deposits, defined as total deposits excluding brokered deposits and time deposits greater than $250,000, increased $428.2 million, or 63.6% annualized, from the third quarter of 2024; core deposits, excluding deposits assumed in the FMCB transaction, increased by $210.9 million, or 31.3% annualized. Growth in core deposits was due to both increased balances of existing clients and new client acquisitions. On a year-to-date basis, core deposits increased by $559.4 million, or 22.0%. Based on the nature of the Company’s client base, core deposit balances can fluctuate from quarter to quarter, as deposit growth is not always linear.

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 changes in interest rates; effects on the U.S. economy resulting from the implementation of policies proposed by the new presidential administration, including tariffs, mass deportations and tax regulations; 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 the level and impact 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 several bank failures; credit risk and risks from concentrations (by type of borrower, geographic area, collateral and industry) within the Company’s loan portfolio or large loans to certain borrowers (including CRE loans); 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 as may be adopted by state and federal regulatory agencies, the FASB, SEC or PCAOB; the concentration of large deposits from certain clients, including those who have balances above current FDIC insurance limits; our ability to

Page 8 of 18

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 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 or as a result of insider fraud; 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, “fintech” companies and digital asset service providers; the effectiveness of our risk management framework; the commencement, cost 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 prior bank failures; risks related to climate change and the negative impact it may have on our customers and their businesses; the imposition of tariffs or 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 ongoing conflicts in the Middle East and the Russian invasion of Ukraine; potential impairment to the goodwill the Company recorded in connection with acquisitions; risks associated with our acquisition of First Minnetonka City Bank, including the possibility that the merger may be more difficult or expensive to integrate than anticipated, and the effect of the merger on the Company’s customer and employee relationships and operating results; changes to U.S. or state tax laws, regulations and governmental policies concerning the Company’s general business, including changes in interpretation or prioritization and changes in response to prior bank failures; 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 press release is based only on information currently available to us and speaks only as of the date on which it is made.

Exhibit 99.2

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 changes in interest rates; effects on the U.S. economy resulting from the implementation of policies proposed by the new presidential administration, including tariffs, mass deportations and tax regulations; 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 the level and impact 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 several bank failures; credit risk and risks from concentrations (by type of borrower, geographic area, collateral and industry) within the Company’s loan portfolio or large loans to certain borrowers (including CRE loans); 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 as may be adopted by state and federal regulatory agencies, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or Public Company Accounting Oversight Board; the concentration of large loans to certain borrowers; the concentration of large deposits from certain clients, including those who have balances above current Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“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 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 or as a result of insider fraud; 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, “fintech” companies and digital asset service providers; the effectiveness of our risk management framework; the commencement, cost 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 prior bank failures; risks related to climate change and the negative impact it may have on our customers and their businesses; the imposition of tariffs or 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 ongoing conflicts in the Middle East and the Russian invasion of Ukraine; potential impairment to the goodwill the Company recorded in connection with acquisitions; risks associated with our acquisition of First Minnetonka City Bank (“FMCB”), including the possibility that the merger may be more difficult or expensive to integrate than anticipated and the effect of the merger on the Company’s customer and employee relationships and operating results; changes to U.S. or state tax laws, regulations and government policies concerning the Company’s general business, including changes in interpretation or prioritization and changes in response to prior bank failures and any other risks described in the “Risk Factors” sections of reports filed by the Company with the SEC. 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
