Thank you, Heather. Good morning, everyone, thank you for joining us to discuss CrossFirst first quarter 2023 operating results. It has certainly been an interesting start to the year, I always look forward to this opportunity to share an update on CrossFirst performance, as well as offer a preview of what's to come in the year ahead. I could not be more proud of how our team has navigated the challenging environment. We entered 2023 with a theme of optimization. Our goal this year is to build on our solid foundation and maximize the investments we have made to benefit our clients and our shareholders. We continued our momentum from 2022 into the first quarter, producing strong earnings, expanded margin, growth in our capital, and improvement in our credit quality against a challenging backdrop. We maintain a diversified balance sheet with significant liquidity to withstand market volatility. In terms of first quarter 2023 financial performance, we reported $17.3 million in adjusted net income or $0.35 per share. We are fortunate to have an experienced team of bankers and leaders. I am extremely proud of the way they have managed through the recent turmoil within our industry, with a focus on serving our clients and continuing to build franchise value. We have a history of financial stability and a responsible risk management mindset. These sound fundamentals have served us well since our bank was founded and will continue to guide us into the future. We are well-capitalized with ratios above regulatory requirements. As a sign of support and confidence in our company, last quarter, we issued $17.8 million in a private preferred stock offering. The preferred shares were primarily purchased by our board and executive team to further strengthen our capital ratios. We are so fortunate to have a diversified client base of depositors and borrowers consisting of successful businesses and professionals within the markets we serve. This customer base has been built over 15 years based on relationship and trust, which has proved invaluable over the last several weeks. We operate in high-quality metro markets such as Dallas-Fort Worth, Kansas City, Phoenix, and most recently, Denver and Colorado Springs. We believe our presence in these markets will strengthen our financial profile for continued success. We have had several significant accomplishments this past quarter as we continue to leverage the investments we have made in technology, our processes, and in the development of our people. In March, we completed the final step in our Colorado and New Mexico integration as we combine the strengths of our technology and people. As we look to the rest of the year, we will be thoughtful about how we allocate our capital with the expectation that our loan growth will moderate from first quarter levels. Due to the economic environment, we will hold to our credit standards. We will remain true to our relationship-based banking philosophy. We are very cognizant of the continued economic uncertainty as the Fed pursues its goal of reining in inflation. Maintaining great asset quality remains our number one priority. It will not be compromised to facilitate growth. We are only as good as our people and our culture. The success we achieve as an organization is directly connected to our teammates and their development, which is why I'm honored to share with all of you that we were recently recognized by Gallup as a 2023 Don Clifton Strengths-Based Culture Award winner. This award is recognition of all the extraordinary work that our employees do each day to embrace our strengths-based culture. With increased pressure on retaining top talent, this award is a strong indicator that we are investing in the right areas, especially in our people. We know there continues to be a dynamic economic environment that regardless of what may happen outside of our control, I am confident in our team's ability to deliver extraordinary service and help our clients while building franchise value. Now I'd like to turn the call over to our President of CrossFirst Bank, Randy Rapp. Thanks, Mike. Good morning, everyone. Q1 was a unique quarter for our industry. I could not be happier about the way our bankers and clients responded to changing market conditions, affirming the trusted relationships we have established in our markets. We have not lost any significant clients to date. In fact, continue to see strong loan demand. During the quarter, we integrated the Colorado and New Mexico teams and enhanced our leadership team with the addition of Brendon Maguffee as president of our Tulsa market. In Q1, we also continued our focus on providing our clients with innovative technology solutions, completing the final phase of our digital banking platform conversion. We have now migrated all clients to the newly enhanced platform, which we believe will assist in driving new deposit and treasury activity. Turning to Q1 highlights, we reported total loan growth of $270 million. C&I and commercial real estate both increased during the quarter, with C&I increasing $59 million and commercial real estate increasing $198 million. During the quarter, we realized growth in areas we have recently made investments in talent, including franchise finance, energy and the Colorado markets. Our larger markets, including Dallas, Kansas City and Phoenix, also continued to report significant loan growth. Although we realize good loan activity, we continue to strictly adhere to our underwriting standards while integrating the impact of a higher interest rate environment and enhanced economic uncertainty. Over the last several quarters, as liquidity in the markets has decreased and the level of competition has lessened, we have also seen an increase in loan spreads. Average C&I line utilization for the quarter was 44%, consistent with the prior quarter. Portfolio churn decreased and is now below the historical average level. We expect portfolio churn to continue to decrease over the next several quarters, led by a decrease in commercial real estate refinancing and sales activity. Our loan portfolio remains diversified with a 44% concentration in commercial real estate and 45% concentration in C&I and owner-occupied real estate. Energy exposure is now $194 million or 3.4% of total portfolio. There also remains good diversity within each of those portfolios, with the highest CRE property type accounting for 17% of total CRE exposure and the largest industry segment in C&I being manufacturing at 10% of C&I exposure. We also continue to have good transaction diversity within each portfolio. With the top 25 C&I clients representing 27% of total C&I exposure or 10% of total loan exposure. The top 25 commercial real estate transactions representing 23% of CRE exposure or 10% of total loan exposure. Our real estate portfolio also has geographic diversity, with concentrations in high quality markets, including Dallas, Kansas City, Phoenix and Denver. For the quarter, average deposits increased 8.3% to $5.7 billion, up $439 million from the previous quarter. Non-interest-bearing deposits decreased during the quarter to $970 million and now represent 17% of total deposits, down from 25% at the end of 2022. Some of this migration was anticipated due to several clients holding short-term outsized DDA positions at the end of the year. Ben will cover additional deposit portfolio statistics in his remarks. Continuing to grow deposits with a focus on DDA remains a top priority. Moving to the credit highlights. For Q1, we reported a drop in non-performing assets of $2 million - $11 million, resulting in a non-performing asset to total asset ratio of 0.16%. This ratio is down from 0.64% from the same period in 2022. At quarter end, we held only one piece of ORE valued at $855,000, which has subsequently been sold with a slight recovery. Classified loans to capital plus combined reserves ended Q1 at 9.3%, down from 10% at year-end 2022, and down from 10.7% the same quarter last year. For the quarter, we reported net charge-offs of $1.6 million, resulting in a charge-off rate of eight basis points on an annualized basis and nine basis points on a trailing 12-month basis. At quarter end, we reported an allowance for credit loss to total loan ratio of 1.15% and combined allowance for credit loss and reserve for unfunded commitments of 1.3%. For the quarter, we reported provision expense of $4.4 million, resulting in a provision to charge-off ratio of 269%. Provision was driven primarily by loan growth during the quarter. With a total ACL of $65 million, our current combined ACL to non-performing loan ratio is 629%. We remain highly focused on maintaining good credit metrics moving forward. We continue to proactively monitor our portfolio and have consistent dialogue with our clients and prospects about the continued impact of higher interest rates, inflation, and economic uncertainty on their businesses. We are also continuing to closely monitor our local U.S. and global economies, looking for impactful trends. We have minimal exposure in some of the higher impacted parts of the country, and we are pleased with our core, stable Midwest markets, as well as our larger markets that continue to show positive job creation and population migration. I will now turn the call over to Ben to cover the financial results in more detail. Ben? Thanks, Randy, and good morning, everyone. GAAP net income this quarter was $16.1 million or $0.33 per share, which included several costs related to the Colorado integration. Adjusted net income was $17.3 million or $0.35 per share. Net income was higher this quarter due to an increase in net interest income, partially offset by higher non-interest expenses. I'll frame the rest of my comments around results adjusted to remove the integration and acquisition costs where applicable, which we believe is reflective of our core operating performance. We are in the early stages following the acquisition, but we are on track to achieve our cost savings target and earnings accretion as anticipated. Quarterly adjusted return on average assets was 1.04% and adjusted return on average equity was 11.3%. These ratios were the result of strong core performance driven by balance sheet growth and an expanding margin while optimizing investments we have made. Net interest income on a fully tax equivalent basis increased $4.2 million or 8% from the fourth quarter due to higher average earning assets and stronger loan yields, partially offset by higher cost of funds in two fewer days. Average earning assets increased $521 million compared to the prior quarter. The yield on loans increased 63 basis points due to repricing as well as higher yields on new loans. The cost of funds increased due to continued pricing pressure on deposits, as well as the mix of deposits shifting into higher cost products as anticipated as clients sought better yields. Fully tax equivalent net interest margin expanded four basis points to 3.65% compared to the prior quarter, due primarily to the benefit of non-interest-bearing deposits in the quarter. We expect margin to narrow from this first quarter level based on changes in our funding mix and to moderate to a level between 3.4% and 3.55% for the remainder of the year. Given our largely variable loan portfolio, we expect an offsetting benefit of a few basis points with additional rate increases and are assuming one more rate increase of 25 basis points this year. We believe there is continued opportunity for enhancements in loan pricing. Our percentage of demand deposits was pressured this quarter and declined to 17% of total deposits. We had a level of elevated deposits at year-end, which was deployed by clients during the quarter, we experienced some shift into interest-bearing accounts, we did not experience any significant client losses. Our total cost of funds was 2.66% for the quarter. Our total deposit beta against rate increases through the first quarter remained in the fifties, in line with our expectations. During the current rate cycle, starting at the beginning of 2022, we have expanded our NIM by 35 basis points, with yield on loans outpacing the cost of deposits because of our largely variable loan portfolio. As we have managed through this rate cycle, largely due to our commercial-focused strategy, we have realized the majority of our through the cycle deposit beta expectations in our results already. While we acknowledge competition for deposits will persist, our unique positioning will allow us to better defend our NIM as we move forward from here. Non-interest income was $4.4 million for the quarter and increased across several categories, including gain on sale of loans. Credit card income increased again this quarter, and we remain focused on increasing credit card transaction volume. Excluding acquisition-related expenses in both the first quarter and the prior quarter, non-interest expense increased $3.8 million. Salaries and benefit costs were higher due to merit increases, tax and benefit limit resets, and the full quarter impact of the addition of employees from the Colorado acquisition. Additionally, deposit insurance premiums increased primarily due to an increase in the assessment rate. We also had a full quarter of core deposit intangible amortization as a result of the acquisition. We've begun reassessing our expense base given the environment and the economy. With moderating loan growth, we anticipate non-interest expense to be in a range of $35 million-$36 million per quarter for the remainder of the year. We plan to manage our cost base to be well within our amount of revenue expansion to promote continued earnings growth and operating leverage. Our tax rate was 20% for the quarter, down due to acquisition activity in the fourth quarter. We expect the tax rate to remain in a range of 20%-22% for the year. At the end of the quarter, stockholders' equity totaled $645 million compared to $609 million at December 31, 2022. The increase was due to net income, the issuance of $7.8 million of preferred, as Mike mentioned, and a decrease in the unrealized loss on available-for-sale securities, which declined as long-term rates moderated. As of quarter end, we are well capitalized under all ratios. Considering the current environment, I would like to highlight a couple aspects of our balance sheet and our liquidity. As we outlined on slide 13, we have significant liquidity of approximately $2.3 billion and have worked to expand our borrowing capacity at both the FHLB and Federal Reserve as a precaution. We have not utilized the Federal Reserve discount window or the new BTFP. We do not foresee doing so at this point. We have significant on-balance sheet liquidity. In addition to our cash, I wanted to break down our 100% available-for-sale investment portfolio. $244 million can be pledged to FHLB, and we have an additional $222 million of securities that we could sell today at a net gain. The after-tax mark on our entire AFS portfolio as of 03/31/2023 was 7% of capital. We also have multiple sources of additional off-balance sheet liquidity, including capacity at the FHLB, the Federal Reserve, Fed funds, and other wholesale funding sources totaling approximately $1.3 billion. Slide 14 outlines the composition of our investment portfolio. As I mentioned, we have increased the liquidity in our portfolio and shifted the ratio of munis to 64% from 72% at year-end. Securities sold in the normal course during the quarter were transacted at a net gain with reinvestment at equivalent or greater yields, providing better liquidity, a modest gain, and improvement in yield. We also included some additional detail on our deposit base on slide 15, which shows our diversity by industry and geography. We are 70% commercial, 17% individual, and 13% wholesale at quarter end, which is consistent with our strategy. We operate largely in the Midwest and in strong markets. We outlined our deposit composition by state, which follows our branch footprint. We also have great diversity in depositors by industry. We provided some detail by NAICS code categories with no industry concentrations above 5% outside of trusts and banking institutions. Average deposit balances across our client base further illustrates our good diversity. Our effective uninsured deposits percentage is 35% when considering pass-through accounts. We also have additional capacity in our ICS program as needed to meet client requests, and we saw a modest increase in utilization of our program in the first quarter. In summary, we had a successful first quarter with strong earnings, margin, and liquidity momentum heading into the rest of the year. Operator, we are now ready to begin the question-and-answer portion of the call. Thank you very much. We will now begin the question-and-answer session. To ask a question, you may press star then one on your telephone keypad. If you are using a speakerphone today, please pick up your handset before pressing the keys. To withdraw from the question queue, please press star then two. In the interest of time, please limit yourself to one question and one follow-up. At this time, we will pause momentarily to assemble our roster. Today's first question comes from Brady Gailey with KBW. Please go ahead. Hey, thanks. Good morning, guys. Good morning, Brady. Good morning, Brady. Wholesale and brokered were up, deposits were up about $400 million in the first quarter. I was just wondering what does that take the wholesale and brokered deposit bucket to? How, you know, high of a concentration are you comfortable taking that to? Hey, good morning, Brady. It's Ben. That puts us at around 15%. Our goal is to clearly manage that below 20%. That's our tolerance limit. As you heard Randy say, we're very focused on maintaining and growing the deposit base in particular DDA, but it is obviously tough out there for that. In short, we have a little bit of room. In the long term, you know, it's our goal to manage that at the current level or below. You know, Brady, you know, we're gonna manage our growth with core deposit growth. I think it's kinda interesting, if you look back, when we IPO'd, our wholesale funding was probably closer to 20%, and our DDA percentage was probably in the 13%, 12%, 13%. I kinda look at it pre-pandemic and now with all the funny money that got put into the system, I'm still pretty encouraged that we've been able to grow the bank a couple billion dollars and increase our DDA percentage by 3% or so. Yeah. All right, you know, I mean, 8%-10% loan growth is a great level, especially nowadays. Do you think that deposits will grow at a similar rate as loans for the remainder of the year? Well, I mean, we're going to manage our loan growth based on our deposit growth. yeah, if we're gonna grow loans 8%-10%, we're gonna grow deposits 8%-10%. Okay. All right. I had a question just on capital. I know y'all raised a modest amount of NCPP, you know, the stock's at 80% of tangible book value, you didn't repurchase any stock in the 1st quarter, at least nothing of a material size. How, how do you think about the share buyback with the stock trading below tangible book value? It's obviously an attractive price, but we're also deploying our capital into growth. You know, we continue to see high-quality opportunities in our markets. We also have, you know, new investments in Phoenix and in Denver and some of our verticals, and we want to make sure that we maintain enough capital to, you know, allow us to develop those verticals in those new markets. You know, we're gonna balance, you know, looking at the opportunity for buybacks, but also making sure we maintain enough capital for growth. We still have a, you know, a fair amount of room on the buyback authorization that was done, and so we'll be strategic. Yep. That's right, Brady. We have about $16 million left on our prior authorization. As Mike said, we'll be opportunistic about what we can do. That's the beauty of a buyback. It's completely flexible. At this point, we're in a phase of building some capital and deploying it for loan growth. You know, As you know, Brady, I mean, the world changed in early March. I think we, along with everybody, are just gonna be super conservative and really continue to build our balance sheet. Look, when things change, we'll look at it. Right now, we're gonna be as conservative as we can. Yeah, that makes sense. My final question is just on the guidance slide, on slide 16. I just wanna make sure I'm understanding this correctly. The 3.40%-3.55% NIM and the expenses of $35 million-$36 million per quarter, that's not the full year 2023 guidance. That's really just the remainder of the year, so call it, like, you know, 2Q through 4Q? Brady, the $35 million-$36 million is my expectation for Q2 through Q4, so the remainder of the year. Our NIM guidance at this point is all in. We think the year-to-date is gonna land in that 340-355 range, which is obviously, some narrowing from our very strong first quarter level. Got it. All right, great. Thanks, guys. The next question comes from Michael Rose with Raymond James. Please go ahead. Hey, good morning, everyone. Thanks for taking my questions. Just wanted to follow up on that last comment on the margin commentary. I think if I'm understanding it right, you're saying that's for the full year, right? I mean, the terminal margin could actually dip below the low end of that guidance range if you were to come in towards the lower end. I just wanna make sure I understand that. Is that the way to think about it? Yep. I think that's possible, Michael. Yes, based on the range. Okay, perfect. Just maybe more holistically on expenses, you know, totally understand the outlook there, you mentioned, you know, some cost measures, time and place. Should we think about that as actual real cost tightening outside of, you know, the realization of cost saves from the deal? Is it more of just like you guys have been really active, you know, hiring, building out, you know, different markets, you know, over the past few years, and maybe you're just kind of slowing the pace of that investment down? Is that more the way to think about it, or is there actual real kind of targeted cost measures in place? If so, what would those be? I think the latter is the right way to think about it, Michael. At a high level, you know, from the $38 million non-interest expense level in the first quarter, as we called out, we had $1.5 million or so of particular integration costs, which are not going to recur. Compensation is always a little bit higher in Q1 because of the way taxes and benefits work. Between those two, that gets us pretty close to the range I gave you. We're obviously looking at other things that would be volume-based, you know, linked potentially to loan growth or other discretionary costs that we might look at to make sure we're being prudent. You know, Michael, we're just looking at everything and again, trying to be conservative. There's a number of investments that might be in the would like to have bucket that we don't have to have. If we're not going to maybe grow as much as we had planned, we're gonna manage our expenses accordingly. We do believe we still have the opportunity to increase our operating leverage because we have a lot of new investments that we've made. We think we've made the investments in technology and people to continue to grow at a fair pace and scale. Okay, great. Maybe just one more for me for Randy. Obviously, credit's been, you know, really good here for a while. I think there's some storm clouds, you know, building and, you know, I think if you look at the most recent Moody's scenarios that I think came out yesterday, you know, are starting to show some normalization in terms of, you know, unemployment, things the like. Just as we think about, you know, where you guys stand and, you know, some of the business build-outs here over the past few years, you know, new markets, would you actually, you know, potentially look to maybe proactively build, you know, reserves for CECL, you know, in coming quarters? Are you just still not kind of seeing anything yet that would indicate that, you know, there's really no need to, at this point, to even think about that? Thanks. Yeah. Hey, Michael Rose, it's Randy Rapp. You know, Michael Rose, we're very proud of the movement in our credit metrics over the last year or so. When we think about ending this quarter at, you know, our NPA level, our classified level, we feel good about that. We actually feel good about our reserve level. It's a total of 130. As you know, part of that's split on funded and part unfunded. 1.15 on the funded side. We think over time our unfundeds are gonna come down, and we'll be able to move some of those reserves from the unfunded to the funded. I think about our total reserve level at a 1.3%. We're obviously, you know, watching the portfolio closely, having a lot of dialogue, looking at trends within the portfolio. You know, right now, we're really not seeing a lot of disruption in the portfolio. We'll continue to monitor that. At this point, we feel good about our reserve level, and feel like a lot of our future provisioning will be based on loan growth. Great. That's it for me. Heather, it's been a real pleasure. You'll be missed. Thanks. Thanks, Michael. The next question comes from Matt Olney with Stephens. Please go ahead. Hey, thanks. Good morning. I think you mentioned in prepared remarks you've been pleased with deposit beta so far in this cycle. I'm curious about your expectations over the next few quarters, with deposit betas and kind of what that guidance implies, and just any general color you have on the spot prices on deposits. Thanks. Sure. Good morning, Matt, it's Ben. Absolutely, we expect some pressure against our deposit beta. Thus the updated NIM guidance. In our modeling, we are pushing the beta up about 5%, you know, from the mid-fifties where it was into the low sixties, under the assumption that we'll continue to experience some level of pricing pressure. Obviously, our mix has changed at quarter end as I mentioned in my comments. Okay. Got it. Thank you. Mike reminded me of the second part of your question. Our sort of jump-off rate at the end of the quarter was about 290. You didn't ask, but I'll offer that our new loan rate was 760. 760. Okay. That's helpful. Thank you for that. I guess on the loan yield side, I know, Ben, there's been some noise in the past results as far as loan yield. Any noise this quarter, and specifically any of that accretable yield from the Central deal this quarter? Yes. No, no noise in the quarter, so no accrual changes. We've had a number of those. We had a nice quiet quarter. As I mentioned, you know, 760 was our new loan jumping off point. Accretion specifically this quarter was about $650,000 from the deal. That will remain around $500,000 a quarter for the rest of this year. Matt, this is Randy. On yield, you know, I just want to point out, you know, I said in my comments, but really we're seeing better pricing today than we've probably seen in the last two years. We are seeing those spreads widen. I think as other banks sort of tighten their credit standards and liquidity is less prevalent, I think we'll see that continue. We are very much focusing on, you know, pricing and making sure that we maintain our NIM through increasing our loan yields. Think that's out there in the market. Okay, that's helpful, Randy. I guess just on that, on that note, as far as loan growth, I've heard lots of talk about just managing overall loan growth this year. Any more commentary as far as what that means specifically, when you manage the growth? Are there any specific loan types that you're focused on, increasing or decreasing? Is it more about pricing within each one of those? Just any more commentary on the whole managing the loan growth this year? Thanks. We obviously had a very robust first quarter, and we wanna manage the growth moving forward. We do have a significant number of unfunded commitments in our real estate book that we know will continue to fund throughout the year as those projects build. We're being, you know, very cautious on adding new real estate exposure because we know that portfolio could increase. Really the wild card there is the churn rate. You know, what does the refinancing activity look like? We know there's some built-in growth there with the unfunded. We've seen nice growth in some of the newer verticals, franchise finance, the sort of Energy 2.0 have seen increases. We've seen increases in our sponsor finance. As we look at loan growth, we're really focusing on C&I private client and some of our verticals over the next several quarters. Okay. Okay, that's helpful, Randy. I'll echo the previous comments. Heather, you will be missed. Thank you. Thanks, Matt. The next question comes from Andrew Liesch with Piper Sandler. Please go ahead. Hi, good morning, everyone You know, just wanna talk about the margin here going forward. Appreciate the guidance. Has there been some thought of maybe locking in some of the higher rates with some swaps to protect against some downside for when rates are eventually cut? Yeah. Good morning, Andrew. We do have some very modest hedging in place. We did a little bit of hedging last year against rate rises, which we locked in that will begin to impact our margin in 2024. Those were forward swaps. We currently have a pretty modest $250 million notional caller in place, giving up some potential upside, you know, on the top of the caller, but protecting against rate declines on the bottom. Those swaps are also forward-looking from 2024 through 2027. There are a couple things there that will protect us on the downside out in the future. I think our expectations continue to be by 2024 and beyond will likely be in a lower rate scenario than we are today. Got it. All right. That's helpful. Just curious on some of the deposit trends. How have things progressed since quarter end? Has there been more migration out of the non-interest bearing, or was that trend really expected early in the year, just given that some of those, some of that money was parked in those accounts right at the end of December? Yeah. Nothing of any significance that I think we've observed post-quarter end, Andrew, to maybe put a little finer point on it, of the $400 billion or so movement in DDA, just about half of that was client deployment, literally funds that, you know, were parked here for part of the quarter that we knew would be deployed. One of those clients, for example, bought treasuries, you know, which we're unfortunately competing against today and t he other couple hundred million migrated into interest-bearing accounts. Nothing new or different since quarter end that we've observed at all. Got it. All right, thanks for taking the questions. Heather, once again, great working with you, and you'll certainly be missed here. Thanks, Andrew. I appreciate it. This concludes our question and answer session. I would now like to turn the call back to President and CEO, Mike Maddox, for any closing remarks. Well, hey, I wanna thank everybody for joining us. Just really wanna reiterate how proud I am of our team and really how confident we are in our positioning. We're in great markets, and the team's done a great job of really putting us in a position to continue to have success. Really excited about our quarter, excited about the rest of the year. Then in closing, I too would like to thank Heather for all of her work here at CrossFirst, and we're really excited for you and Mason and your next chapters as you guys start your journey. Thank you so much for everything you've done for us, and we really appreciate it. We're gonna miss you, although you're still gonna be hanging around. We know where you live. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you so much. Thank you, everybody, for joining our call, and we appreciate it. The call has now concluded. Thank you for attending today's presentation. You may now disconnect.
