SVB FINANCIAL GROUP ANNOUNCES 2022 FOURTH QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS
Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend on Series A, B, C, D and E Preferred Stock
SANTA CLARA, Calif. — January 19, 2023 — SVB Financial Group (NASDAQ: SIVB) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2022.
Consolidated net income available to common stockholders for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $275 million, or $4.62 per diluted common share, compared to $429 million, or $7.21 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2022 and $371 million, or $6.22 per diluted common share, for the fourth quarter of 2021. Consolidated net income available to common stockholders for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $1.5 billion, or $25.35 per diluted common share, compared to $1.8 billion, or $31.25 per diluted common share, for the comparable 2021 period.
“In the fourth quarter, client cash burn and the pace of VC investment decline both moderated. We saw solid growth in loans and core fees, better-than-expected net interest income, and healthy investment banking activity driven by Biopharma deals,” said Greg Becker, President and CEO of SVB Financial Group. "While broader market conditions are limiting growth and driving somewhat higher credit costs, we continue to see strength in our underlying business, and a balance by our clients between near-term expense discipline and preparation for a return to investment and deployment. Until that shift occurs, we believe we remain well positioned with a strong balance sheet and the resources and expertise to manage successfully through the current environment.”
Highlights of our fourth quarter of 2022 results (compared to third quarter 2022, unless otherwise noted) included:
•Average loans of $73.6 billion, an increase of $2.5 billion (or 3.6 percent).
•Period-end loans of $74.3 billion, an increase of $2.1 billion (or 2.9 percent).
•Average fixed income investment securities of $121.5 billion, a decrease of $1.5 billion (or 1.2 percent).
•Period-end fixed income investment securities of $117.4 billion, a decrease of $2.6 billion (or 2.2 percent).
•Average total client funds (on-balance sheet deposits and off-balance sheet client investment funds) decreased $20.8 billion (or 5.7 percent) to $347.6 billion, which includes a decrease in average on-balance sheet deposits of $10.8 billion (or 5.8 percent).
•Period-end total client funds decreased $12.2 billion (or 3.4 percent) to $341.5 billion, which includes a decrease in period-end on-balance sheet deposits of $3.7 billion (or 2.1 percent).
•Period-end SVB Private Assets Under Management (“AUM”) of $17.3 billion, an increase of $1.4 billion.
•Net interest income (fully taxable equivalent basis) of $1.0 billion, a decrease of $160 million (or 13.3 percent).
•Provision for credit losses was $141 million, compared to $72 million.
•Net loan charge-offs of $28 million, or 15 basis points of average total loans (annualized) compared to $15 million, or 8 basis points.
•Noninterest income of $490 million, an increase of $131 million (or 36.5 percent). Non-GAAP core fee income increased $33 million (or 10.4 percent) to $349 million. Non-GAAP SVB Securities revenue increased $53 million (or 53.5 percent) to $152 million. (See non-GAAP reconciliation under the section “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”)
•Net losses on investment securities of $86 million compared to net losses of $127 million. Non-GAAP net losses on investment securities, net of noncontrolling interests, were $77 million, compared to net losses of $76 million. (See non-GAAP reconciliation under the section “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”)
•Net gains on equity warrant assets of $28 million, compared to $40 million.
•Noninterest expense of $1.0 billion, an increase of $116 million (or 13.0 percent).
•Effective tax rate of 19.1 percent, compared to 27.2 percent.
•Operating efficiency ratio of 66.0 percent, compared to 57.3 percent, due to the increase in noninterest expense, driven primarily by higher incentive compensation expense due to SVB Securities revenue outperformance and deferred compensation costs, and lower net interest income, partially offset by an increase in noninterest income.

Investment Securities
Our investment securities portfolio is comprised of: (i) our available-for-sale ("AFS") and held-to-maturity ("HTM") securities portfolios, each consisting of fixed income investments which are managed to earn an appropriate portfolio yield over the long-term while maintaining sufficient liquidity and addressing our asset/liability management objectives; and (ii) our non-marketable and other equity securities portfolio, which primarily represents investments managed as part of our funds management business as well as public equity securities held as a result of equity warrant assets exercised.
The following table provides further details on our AFS and HTM securities portfolios:

The period-end decrease in AFS securities was driven by the sale of $1.0 billion of US Treasury securities, $279 million of paydowns and maturities, partially offset by purchases of $318 million and an increase of $317 million in the fair value of our AFS securities portfolio. In October 2022, we entered into interest rate swap contracts with a notional balance of $550 million to hedge against our exposure to decreases in the fair value of our AFS securities resulting from increases in interest rates.
The period-end decrease in HTM securities was driven primarily by approximately $2.0 billion in paydowns.

Loans
Average loans increased by $2.5 billion to $73.6 billion for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $71.1 billion for the third quarter of 2022. Period-end loans increased by $2.1 billion to $74.3 billion at December 31, 2022, compared to $72.1 billion at September 30, 2022. Average and period-end loan growth was driven primarily by our Global Fund Banking portfolios, with additional growth in our Technology and Private Bank loan portfolios.

Net Interest Income and Margin
Net interest income, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, was $1.0 billion for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $1.2 billion for the third quarter of 2022. The $160 million decrease was attributable primarily to the following:
•An increase of $395 million in interest expense due primarily to an increase in interest paid on our interest-bearing deposits driven by higher market rates and a shift in our deposit mix. Additionally, we saw higher interest expense due to an increase in short-term borrowings expense driven by an increase in average short-term borrowings and higher borrowing costs due to market rate increases.
•A decrease of $50 million in interest income from HTM agency mortgage-backed fixed income securities primarily driven by higher premium amortization in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2022. The increase in interest rates through the third quarter of 2022 impacted the cash flows received, as well as future estimated cash flows, resulting in a $50 million benefit in the third quarter of 2022 from the remeasurement of agency mortgage-backed securities in the third quarter of 2022.

The overall decrease in interest income was partially offset by,
•An increase of $254 million in interest income from loans due primarily to higher yields driven by the increase in market rates as well as growth in average loans of $2.5 billion and
•An increase of $31 million in interest income from increased market rates on interest-earning cash, partially offset by lower average balances.
Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, was 2.00 percent for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to 2.28 percent for the third quarter of 2022. The 28 basis point decrease in our net interest margin was due primarily to the increase in interest-bearing deposit and short-term borrowings expense as well as the increase in premium amortization expense mentioned above, partially offset by improved loan and cash yields reflective of the higher rate environment.
4    

For the fourth quarter of 2022, approximately 92 percent, or $67.8 billion, of our average loans were variable-rate loans that adjust at prescribed measurement dates. Of our variable-rate loans, approximately 60 percent are tied to prime-lending rates, 14 percent are tied to LIBOR and 26 percent are tied to alternate reference rates.
SVB has launched alternative reference rates in line with industry standards across USD (SOFR), GBP (SONIA), and EUR (€STR). For USD, SVB supports Term SOFR (1-,3-, and 6-month tenors) and Daily Simple SOFR conventions. We have made significant progress on legacy contract migration away from LIBOR to alternate reference rates. SVB does not expect any material changes in net interest income or net interest expense from product spread adjustments as a result of offering alternative reference rates.

(1)The provision for credit losses for the year ended December 31, 2021 includes $46 million recognized as a result of the Boston Private acquisition, which consists of a $44 million provision for loan losses related to non-PCD loans and a $2 million provision for unfunded commitments.
(2)Metrics for the year ended December 31, 2021 include the impact of an $80 million charge-off related to potentially fraudulent activity discussed in previous filings.
(3)The “allowance for credit losses for unfunded credit commitments” is included as a component of “other liabilities.”
(4)The "allowance for credit losses for HTM securities" is included as a component of HTM securities and presented net in our consolidated financial statements.

Our allowance for credit losses for loans increased $79 million to $636 million at December 31, 2022, compared to $557 million at September 30, 2022. As a percentage of total loans, our allowance for credit losses for loans was 0.86 percent at December 31, 2022 compared to 0.77 percent at September 30, 2022.
The provision for credit losses was $141 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, consisting of the following:
•A provision for credit loss for loans of $104 million, driven primarily by the impact of nonaccrual loans reflective of $36 million of gross charge-offs not previously specifically reserved for and a $26 million increase in nonaccrual reserves from an increase in nonaccrual loans. Other drivers of the provision were an increase of $31 million due to changes in model assumptions, including a deterioration in economic assumptions and an increase in the weighted average life of the portfolio, as well as loan growth, which accounted for $22 million of the provision. These were offset by $9 million in recoveries.
5    

•A provision for credit loss for unfunded credit commitments of $37 million, driven primarily by growth in our unfunded commitments, which accounted for $24 million of the provision, and $13 million from the changes in model assumptions discussed above.
•A reduction in the allowance for credit losses for HTM securities of less than $1 million, based on ongoing stability within the HTM bond portfolio.
Gross loan charge-offs were $37 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, of which $36 million was not specifically reserved for at September 30, 2022. Gross loan charge-offs were primarily driven by clients in our Technology and Life Sciences/Healthcare portfolios, including $13 million of charge-offs from Investor Dependent - Early Stage clients and $13 million from the Investor Dependent - Growth Stage portfolio.
Nonaccrual loans increased seven basis points as a percentage of total loans to $132 million at December 31, 2022, compared to $76 million at September 30, 2022. The increase in nonaccrual loans is due to $72 million of additions. New nonaccrual loans were primarily driven by Investor Dependent and Innovation C&I clients. The allowance for credit losses for nonaccrual loans increased $26 million to $51 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. The increase is due to the higher nonaccrual balances, which are reflective of the current economic conditions.

SVB Private Assets Under Management ("AUM")
AUM consists of SVB Private's (formerly known as SVB Private Bank) client investment account balances and generated fee income included in financial statement line item wealth management and trust fees included in our consolidated statements of income. The increase in SVB Private AUM was driven by favorable market returns and net inflows. The following table summarizes the activity relating to AUM for the three months ended December 31, 2022, September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 respectively:

Noninterest Income
Noninterest income was $490 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $359 million for the third quarter of 2022. The increase was driven by higher investment banking revenue and client investment fees as well as a decrease in investment losses.
Items impacting noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2022 were as follows:
Net (losses) gains on investment securities
The following tables provide a summary of non-GAAP net losses on investment securities, net of noncontrolling interests, for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, respectively:

Total net gains on equity warrant assets$28 $40 $69 $148 $560 
Net gains on equity warrant assets for the fourth quarter of 2022 were driven by $25 million in net valuation increases due to valuation updates and $4 million in gains on exercises of warrants driven mainly by M&A activity.
At December 31, 2022, we held warrants in 3,234 companies with a total fair value of $383 million. Warrants in 65 companies each had fair values greater than $1 million and collectively represented $199 million, or 51.9%, of the fair value of the total warrant portfolio at December 31, 2022. 
The gains (or losses) from investment securities from our non-marketable and other equity securities portfolio as well as our equity warrant assets resulting from changes in valuations (fair values) are currently unrealized, and the extent to which such gains (or losses) will become realized is subject to a variety of factors, including, among other things, performance of the underlying portfolio companies, investor demand for IPOs and SPACs, fluctuations in the underlying valuation of these companies, levels of M&A activity and legal and contractual restrictions on our ability to sell the underlying securities.

Non-GAAP core fee income increased from the third quarter of 2022 to the fourth quarter of 2022 primarily due to an increase of $30 million in client investment fees, which is reflective of improved fee margins resulting from higher short-term interest rates driven by Federal Funds Rate increases.
Non-GAAP SVB Securities revenue increased $53 million from the third quarter of 2022 to the fourth quarter of 2022 driven by an increase in advisory and equity capital markets transactions most notably within the Biopharma sector.
Reconciliations of our non-GAAP net gains on investment securities, non-GAAP core fee income, non-GAAP SVB Securities revenue and non-GAAP core fee income plus SVB Securities revenue are provided under the section “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense was $1.0 billion for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $892 million for the third quarter of 2022. The increase of $116 million from the prior quarter was attributable primarily to increases in our compensation and benefits expense.

(1)Other employee incentives and benefits expense includes employer payroll taxes, group health and life insurance, share-based compensation, 401(k), ESOP, warrant incentive and retention plans, agency fees and other employee-related expenses.
The $81 million increase in total compensation and benefits expense consists primarily of the following:
•An increase of $67 million in incentive compensation plans expense driven by SVB Securities revenue outperformance and deferred compensation costs, and
•An increase of $20 million in salaries and wages expense primarily due to an increase in FTEs as we continue to invest in our revenue-generating lines of business and support functions.
Income Tax Expense
Our effective tax rate was 19.1 percent for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to 27.2 percent for the third quarter of 2022. Our effective tax rate was 25.2 percent for the year ended 2022, compared to 26.2 percent for the year ended 2021. The decrease reflects our 2021 provision to return adjustment and a lower 2022 estimated state tax expense, as well as higher R&D tax credit benefits. Our effective tax rate is calculated by dividing income tax expense by the sum of income before income tax expense and net income attributable to noncontrolling interests.
SVBFG Stockholders’ Equity
Total SVBFG stockholders’ equity increased by $495 million to $16.0 billion at December 31, 2022, compared to $15.5 billion at September 30, 2022. The increase was driven primarily by net income available to common stockholders and an increase in other comprehensive income (“OCI”). The increase in OCI was driven primarily by short-dated fixed income securities valuation increases, price appreciation on mortgage-backed securities from spread compression and sales and paydowns of fixed income securities in our AFS securities portfolio.

The following table provides a summary of the changes in SVBFG stockholders' equity during the quarter:

December 31, 2022 Preliminary Results
Our risk-based capital ratios decreased for both SVB Financial and Silicon Valley Bank as of December 31, 2022, compared to September 30, 2022. The decreases were due to growth in our risk-weighted assets outpacing the growth in our regulatory capital. The increase in risk-weighted assets for both SVB Financial and Silicon Valley Bank was driven by an increase in our loan portfolio and unfunded commitments. Regulatory capital for SVB Financial and Silicon Valley Bank increased due to net income and an increase in the allowance for credit losses. Increases in regulatory capital for Silicon Valley Bank from net income and increase in allowance for credit losses was offset by dividends paid to SVB Financial.
The increase in the leverage ratio for both SVB Financial and Silicon Valley Bank were reflective of the growth in regulatory capital and a decrease in average assets. The decrease in average assets for both SVB Financial and Silicon Valley Bank was driven primarily by a decrease in investment securities and cash balances held at depository institutions partially offset by an increase in our loan portfolio.
All of our reported capital ratios remain above the levels considered to be “well capitalized” under applicable banking regulations.

Except for the items noted below, we do not provide an outlook for certain items (such as gains or losses from warrants and investment securities) where the timing or financial impact are particularly uncertain and/or subject to market or other conditions beyond our control (such as the level of IPO, SPAC, M&A or general financing activity), or for potential unusual or non-recurring items. The outlook and the underlying assumptions presented are, by their nature, forward-looking statements and are subject to substantial risks and uncertainties, including risks and uncertainties related to a material deterioration in the overall economy, the COVID-19 pandemic and related government actions, geopolitical instability, and other factors which are discussed below under the section “Forward-Looking Statements.” Actual results may differ.

Such forecasts are subject to change, and actual results may differ, based on market conditions, a material deterioration in the overall economy, COVID-19 pandemic and its effects on the economic and business environments in which we operate, actual prepayment rates, geopolitical instability and other factors described under the section "Forward-Looking Statements" below.
(4)Core fee income and SVB Securities revenue are each non-GAAP measures, which collectively represent noninterest income, but exclude certain line items where performance is typically subject to market or other conditions beyond our control. As we are unable to quantify such line items that would be required to be included in the comparable GAAP financial measure for the future period presented without unreasonable efforts, no reconciliation for the outlook of non-GAAP core fee income and non-GAAP SVB Securities revenue to GAAP noninterest income for fiscal year ending 2022 is included in this release, as we believe such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors. See "Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" at the end of this release for further information regarding the calculation and limitations of this measure. Core fee income does not include SVB Securities revenue. SVB Securities revenue represents investment banking revenue and commissions.
(5)Our outlook for noninterest expense is partly based on management's current forecast of performance-based incentive compensation expenses. Such forecasts are subject to change, and actual results may differ, based on our performance relative to our internal performance targets.
(6)Excludes pre-tax merger-related charges related to the acquisition of Boston Private ($50 million incurred during 2022 with an estimated $5 million to $10 million in the first quarter of 2023 and $10 million to $15 million for 2023).
(7)Our outlook for our effective tax rate is based on management's current assumptions with respect to, among other things, SVB Financial Group's earnings, state income tax levels, tax deductions and estimated performance-based compensation activity and does not include assumptions for potential future tax rate changes.

Forward-Looking Statements
This release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which may be beyond our control. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts, such as forecasts of our future financial results and condition, expectations for our operations and business, and our underlying assumptions of such forecasts and expectations. In addition, forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of such words as “becoming,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “assume,” “seek,” “expect,” “plan,” “intend,” the negative of such words or comparable terminology. In this release, including our CEO's statement and in the section “Financial Outlook for the Year Ending December 31, 2023 and the First Quarter of 2023,” we make forward-looking statements discussing management’s expectations for 2023 and the first quarter of 2023 about, among other things, economic conditions; the continuing and potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic; opportunities in the market; the outlook on our clients' performance; our financial, credit, and business performance, including loan and deposit growth, mix and yields/rates; expense levels; our expected effective tax rate; accounting impacts; and financial results (and the components of such results).
Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we have based these expectations on our current beliefs as well as our assumptions, and such expectations may not prove to be correct. 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 our control. Our actual results of operations and financial performance could differ significantly from those expressed in or implied by our management’s forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ from the expectations stated in the forward-looking statements include, among others:
•market and economic conditions (including elevated inflation levels, sustained interest rate increases, the general condition of the capital and equity markets, private equity and venture capital investment, IPO, secondary offering, SPAC fundraising, M&A and other financing activity levels) and the associated impact on us (including effects on total client funds and client demand for our commercial and investment banking and other financial services, as well as on the valuations of our investments);
•disruptions to the financial markets as a result of the current or anticipated impact of military conflict, including the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, terrorism and other geopolitical events;
•the COVID-19 pandemic, including COVID-19 variants and their effects on the economic and business environments in which we operate, and its effects on our business and operations;
•the impact of changes from the Biden-Harris administration and the U.S. Congress on the economic environment, capital markets and regulatory landscape, including monetary, tax and other trade policies, as well as regulatory changes from bank regulatory agencies;
•changes in the volume and credit quality of our loans as well as volatility of our levels of nonperforming assets and charge-offs;
•the impact of changes in interest rates or market levels or factors affecting or affected by them, including on our loan and investment portfolios and deposit costs;
•the adequacy of our allowance for credit losses and the need to make provisions for credit losses for any period;
•the sufficiency of our capital and liquidity positions, and our ability to generate capital or raise capital on favorable terms;
•changes in the levels or composition of our loans, deposits and client investment fund balances;
•changes in the performance or equity valuations of funds or companies in which we have invested or hold derivative instruments or equity warrant assets;
•variations from our expectations as to factors impacting our cost structure;
•changes in our assessment of the creditworthiness or liquidity of our clients or unanticipated effects of credit concentration risks which create or exacerbate deterioration of such creditworthiness or liquidity;
•variations from our expectations as to factors impacting the timing and level of employee share-based transactions;
•the occurrence of fraudulent activity, including breaches of our information security or cyber security-related incidents;
•business disruptions and interruptions due to natural disasters and other external events;
•the impact on our reputation and business from our interactions with business partners, counterparties, service providers and other third parties;
•the expansion of our business internationally, and the impact of geopolitical events and international market and economic events on us;
•the effectiveness of our risk management framework and quantitative models;
12    

•our ability to maintain or increase our market share, including through successfully implementing our business strategy and undertaking new business initiatives, including through the continuing integration of Boston Private, the expansion of SVB Private and the growth and expansion of SVB Securities;
•greater than expected costs or other difficulties related to the continuing integration of our business and that of Boston Private;
•variations from our expectations as to the amount and timing of business opportunities, growth prospects and cost savings associated with the acquisition of Boston Private;
•the inability to retain existing Boston Private clients and employees following the Boston Private acquisition;
•unfavorable resolution of legal proceedings or claims, as well as legal or regulatory proceedings or governmental actions;
•variations from our expectations as to factors impacting our estimate of our full-year effective tax rate;
•changes in applicable accounting standards and tax laws; and
•regulatory or legal changes (including changes to the laws and regulations that apply to us as a result of the growth of our business), and their impact on us.
For additional information about these and other factors, please refer to our public reports filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, including under the caption "Risk Factors" in our most recent Annual Report filed on Form 10-K. The forward-looking statements included in this release are made only as of the date of this release. We do not intend, and undertake no obligation, to update these forward-looking statements.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP measures (including, but not limited to, non-GAAP core fee income, non-GAAP SVB Securities revenue, non-GAAP core fee income plus non-GAAP SVB Securities revenue, non-GAAP net gains on investment securities, non-GAAP non-marketable and other equity securities, net of investments in qualified affordable housing projects and noncontrolling interests in non-marketable securities and non-GAAP financial ratios) of financial performance. These supplemental performance measures may vary from, and may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures by other companies in our industry. Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. A non-GAAP financial measure may also be a financial metric that is not required by GAAP or other applicable requirement.
We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures (as applicable), provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by: (i) excluding amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests for which we effectively do not receive the economic benefit or cost of, where indicated, or (ii) providing additional information used by management that is not otherwise required by GAAP or other applicable requirements. Our management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to, these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our operating results and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate a comparison of our performance to prior periods. We believe these measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, net income or other financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. In the financial tables below, we have provided a reconciliation of, where applicable, the most comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures used in this press release, or a reconciliation of the non-GAAP calculation of the financial measure.
Additionally, from time to time, we may make reference to the non-GAAP financial metric of Core EPS in our earnings call and other investor presentations. Non-GAAP Core EPS consists of our net income available to common stockholders less gains or losses on investment securities, equity warrant assets and income and expenses related to SVB Securities, net of tax, divided by our diluted weighted average common shares outstanding. Our management believes this measure to be a useful assessment of our performance as it relates to our core business because it excludes certain financial items where performance is typically subject to market or other conditions beyond our control. A reconciliation of Core EPS to the closest corresponding GAAP measure is not available with respect to future goals due to our inability to provide a quantitative reconciliation to such measure.
In particular, in this press release, we use certain non-GAAP measures that exclude the following from net income and certain other financial line items in certain periods:
•Income and expense attributable to noncontrolling interests — As part of our funds management business, we recognize the entire income or loss from certain funds where we own less than 100 percent. We are required under GAAP to consolidate 100 percent of the results of certain SVB Capital funds. The relevant amounts attributable to investors other than us are reflected under “Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests.” Our net income available to common stockholders/certain financial line items include only the portion of income or loss related to our ownership interest.
In addition, in this press release, we use certain non-GAAP financial ratios and measures that are not required by GAAP or exclude certain financial items from calculations that are otherwise required under GAAP, including:
•Non-GAAP non-marketable and other equity securities, net of investments in qualified affordable housing projects and noncontrolling interests — This measure represents non-marketable and other equity securities but excludes qualified affordable housing projects and noncontrolling interests. We exclude qualified affordable housing projects as they are not subject to the same market volatility as our other non-marketable and other equity securities. We also exclude noncontrolling interests as we are required to consolidate 100 percent of the results of certain SVB Capital funds with the relevant amounts attributable to investors, other than us, included in "Noncontrolling interests" within our total equity.
•Non-GAAP core fee income plus SVB Securities revenue — This measure represents noninterest income but excludes certain line items where performance is typically subject to market or other conditions beyond our control. We do not provide our outlook for the expected full year results for these excluded items, which include net gains or losses on investment securities, net gains or losses on equity warrant assets and other noninterest income items.
•Non-GAAP core fee income — This measure represents noninterest income but excludes certain line items where performance is typically subject to market or other conditions beyond our control, as well as our non-GAAP SVB
19    

Securities revenue, and represents client investment fees, wealth management and trust fees, foreign exchange fees, credit card fees, deposit service charges, lending related fees and letters of credit and standby letters of credit fees. We do not provide our outlook for the expected full year results for these excluded items, which include net gains or losses on investment securities, net gains or losses on equity warrant assets and other noninterest income items.
•Non-GAAP SVB Securities revenue — This measure represents noninterest income but excludes certain line items where performance is typically subject to market or other conditions beyond our control, as well as our non-GAAP core fee income, and represents investment banking revenue and commissions. We do not provide our outlook for the expected full year results for these excluded items, which include net gains or losses on investment securities, net gains or losses on equity warrant assets and other noninterest income items.
•Tangible common equity, or tangible book value, to tangible assets ratio; tangible common equity to risk-weighted assets ratio — These ratios are not required by GAAP or applicable bank regulatory requirements and are used by management to evaluate the adequacy of our capital levels. Risk-based capital guidelines require a minimum level of capital as a percentage of risk-weighted assets. Risk-weighted assets are calculated by assigning assets and off-balance sheet items to broad risk categories. Our ratios are calculated by dividing total SVBFG stockholders’ equity, by total assets or total risk-weighted assets, as applicable, after reducing amounts by acquired intangibles, if any.

       1  Q4 2022 Earnings Highlights  SVB Financial Group Q4 2022 CEO Letter To our Stakeholders: In the fourth quarter of 2022, SVB delivered Earnings Per Share of $4.62, Net Income of $275 million and a Return on Equity of 8.9 percent. For the full year 2022, we delivered Earnings Per Share of $25.35, Net income of $1.5 billion and a Return on Equity of 12.1 percent. While broader market conditions are impacting growth, activity remained healthy across our client base, with solid loan growth, record core fees, better-than-expected net interest income, and healthy investment banking activity driven by Biopharma deals. We saw moderation in client cash burn and the pace of VC investment decline, a trend we expect to continue into 2023. We also saw higher credit costs, albeit off a very low base. We remain well positioned with a strong balance sheet and the resources and expertise to manage successfully and serve our clients through the current environment, while strengthening those relationships for the long term. At the same time, we are reducing our pace of investment while maintaining our focus on our strategic priorities to take advantage of the long-term growth opportunity ahead. Continued strength and momentum in underlying business We continue to see strength in our underlying business, despite public markets pressure and slower VC investment. New client acquisition remained strong with approximately 1,600 new commercial clients, higher than pre-Covid levels. Loan growth was also healthy, driven by strong Global Fund Banking originations and new term sheets near all-time highs; robust technology borrowing as clients opted for debt over raising equity at pressured valuations; and healthy private bank mortgage growth. Core fee income grew strongly, as interest rate increases drove improved client investment fee margins,1 and SVB Securities revenue increased due to improved follow-on and M&A activity in BioPharma. Our engagement with clients remained very high, as the investments we've made in client acquisition, new capabilities, and the client experience across our four core businesses have enhanced our ability to provide clients with business support and strategic advice. Credit remained solid, with our higher provision reflecting increased (though still low) net charge-offs and nonperforming loans, strong growth in loan balances and commitments, and changes in our model assumptions reflecting deteriorating projected economic conditions. Moderating client cash burn and pace of VC investment decline Client fund flows became more balanced during the quarter, as both client cash burn and the pace of VC investment decline moderated. Average deposits were at the high end of the updated quarterly guidance range we provided in December, and the pace of migration from noninterest- bearing to interest-bearing deposits also moderated. Net interest income and net interest margin remained pressured – albeit somewhat better than our expectations – due to higher interest

 
               2  Q4 2022 Earnings Highlights    expense as a result of client cash burn shifting our funding mix, our continued success leveraging our flexible liquidity solutions to support deposit growth, and client preferences for higher rates in the current environment. These initial signs of moderation are encouraging. We have seen four consecutive quarters of declining VC investment, but the pace of decline appears to be slowing. US VC investment dollars, at $238 billion – while 30 percent lower than 2021 – were higher than in any other year.2 In the near-term, we expect VC investment to remain pressured, but should see the balance of client fund flows improve as clients continue to reduce cash burn. We expect the mix shift from noninterest-bearing to interest-bearing deposits to continue to slow throughout the year, and believe we will end 2023 with a sustainable level of noninterest-bearing deposits in the high 30% range. This anticipated slowing shift in deposit mix will be foundational for earnings stability and growth as we exit 2023. We require additional and sustained improvement in the balance between VC deployment and cash burn for deposits to grow, but we do not need to see VC funding return to 2021 levels. We believe that each quarter brings us a step closer to the point at which VCs and entrepreneurs find common ground on valuations and the massive amount of dry powder waiting to be deployed is unlocked. 2023 outlook In light of continued uncertainty over interest rates, inflation, and the broader economy, we have more limited visibility into our full-year performance than usual. While we are providing full-year 2023 guidance, for now we are also providing guidance for the first quarter of 2023 to offer additional color on our expectations. Our full-year outlook is summarized below, and specifics on our first quarter expectations are provided in our Q4’22 Financial Highlights presentation. We see 2023 as a transitional year, one in which we expect to manage through the challenges of the higher rate environment and continued market volatility, while plotting our course back to growth and more normal levels of profitability. We believe continued public and private market pressures will result in lower 2023 deposits, net interest income and net interest margin; and will continue to impact the more market-sensitive parts of our business. We expect these market pressures to moderate throughout the year and clients to continue to reduce cash burn in the slower funding environment. We expect an eventual stabilization in the level of noninterest-bearing deposits and a return to modest deposit growth in 2H’23 to provide an inflection point for NII and NIM in the second half of the year. This shift, along with progressive paydowns in our investment securities portfolio, should provide meaningful revenue tailwinds that will build with each passing quarter in later 2023 and into 2024. We expect loans to grow, as corporate clients turn to borrowing in lieu of equity, our strong GFB pipeline converts to new originations, and our private banking business offers mortgage lending to individuals affiliated with our commercial clients. We expect healthy credit performance overall, although persistent market pressures will likely increase credit losses and non-performing loans from their current historic lows. Consistent with our

 
               3  Q4 2022 Earnings Highlights    experience, we expect losses to be concentrated in the early-stage investor dependent portfolio, which is currently only 3 percent of total loans, although we could see higher non-performing loans among our later-stage, larger technology and healthcare borrowers. We will continue to invest for the long term, leveraging our progress on our strategic priorities of the past two years to refine and refocus spending on revenue-producing initiatives; integration across the commercial bank, investment bank and private bank; and continued risk management enhancements across the business. At the same time, we are taking advantage of opportunities to optimize our spending: for example, slowing the pace of professional services spend and reducing our reliance on contractors. These actions will allow us to keep investing in our key strategic priorities in 2023 while reducing the overall pace of expense growth.   Strong and well positioned We remain well-positioned to support our clients and navigate current market conditions. We have a high-quality, liquid balance sheet; strong capital ratios; and multiple levers to manage liquidity. The investments we’ve made in our four core businesses over time have significantly expanded our capabilities, diversified our revenues, and enhanced our ability to serve our clients. Our innovation clients, in general, have stronger balance sheets and better business models than in past cycles, and a long history of resilience through market cycles. SVB’s strength and staying power enables us to lean in with our clients at times like these and help them to work through their challenges, strengthening our relationships and planting the seeds for future growth. Our proven leadership team has long track record of navigating successfully through market cycles, and we have made several recent appointments that further fortify our leadership abilities. In December, we appointed Erin Platts President of SVB Private and a member of the Executive Committee. Erin has been with SVB for more than 18 years and was instrumental in growing our UK and EMEA businesses, leading the successful incorporation of SVB UK as a standalone bank and subsidiary. Erin will be responsible for driving SVB Private’s strategy to meet the unique personal financial needs of the entrepreneurs, founders and investors behind the innovation economy. We tapped David Sabow to take over as CEO of SVB UK and Head of EMEA. David has been with SVB for 10 years, most recently as the Head of Technology and Healthcare Banking, a role in which he successfully integrated two distinct groups and delivered record business growth across both verticals. David will lead and develop SVB’s commercial banking business across Germany, the UK, Nordics, Ireland and Israel. Both Erin’s and David’s appointments are pending regulatory approval. We also brought new talent into key roles. Laura Cushing joined us in October as Chief Human Resources Officer, replacing our longtime CHRO, Chris Edmonds-Waters, who is transitioning to a new role in the organization. Laura is a seasoned professional with extensive experience in talent management, organizational development and leading cultural transformations for global organizations. She will play a key role in enabling us to continue to grow our business and develop our workforce with an emphasis on our values.

 
               4  Q4 2022 Earnings Highlights    Kim Olson joined SVB at the end of December as Chief Risk Officer, following a 30-year career in financial services risk management leadership, regulatory management and banking supervision. Kim’s experience as a senior risk leader, former regulator and bank supervisor makes her ideally suited to actively manage financial and non-financial risks, and to build and scale our risk management capabilities through our next phase of growth. Continued confidence in our strategy We remain confident in our strategy and our focus on the innovation economy. Innovation has long been a major driver of economic growth, and the continued expansion of innovative technology into all aspects of society and business gives us confidence that growth of the innovation economy will outpace that of other industries over the long term. Market volatility and disruption may persist for some time, but we are encouraged by continued positive underlying trends in our business and conversations with clients that suggest they are positioning themselves for a rapid resumption of activity once the broader markets stabilize. While it is unclear when that stabilization may occur, we expect demand for investment in the most dynamic segment of the global economy to endure over time. With SVB’s diversified business model and unique role in helping individuals, investors, and the world’s most innovative companies succeed, we remain confident we are in the right market with the right strategy for the long term.

Q4’22 highlights 1. Improved balance between VC investment and client cash burn, moderating EOP client fund declines QoQ 2. Lower NII and NIM despite higher loan yields as growth in proportion of interest-bearing deposits and average borrowings pressured interest expense; premium amortization expense also increased 3. Higher provision balanced across increased NCOs and NPLs, strong growth and model assumptions; still expect overall healthy credit performance, with losses concentrated in Early Stage 4. Investment losses driven by private fund investment markdowns and sale of $1.0B AFS securities 5. Healthy loan growth driven by GFB capital call, Technology and Private Bank mortgage borrowing 6. Record core fee income* as Fed rate hikes drove improved client investment fee margin 7. Outperformed SVB Securities revenue* outlook on strong Biopharma deal activity – higher than expected expenses reflect related incentives and deferred compensation costs 8. Lower effective tax rate (in Q4 only) driven by state tax and R&D credits 9. Continued, but moderating, market challenges to pressure FY’23 growth; reducing pace of investment to reflect current environment, but remain optimistic in the long-term opportunity of the innovation economy * Non-GAAP financial measure.

Important information regarding forward-looking statements and use of non-GAAP financial measures The Company’s financial results for 2022 reflected in this presentation are unaudited. This document should be read in conjunction with the Company’s SEC filings. Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which may be beyond our control. Forward-looking statements are statements that are not historical facts, such as forecasts of our future financial results and condition, expectations for our operations and business, and our underlying assumptions of such forecasts and expectations. In addition, forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the use of such words as “becoming,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “predict,” “potential,” “continue,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “assume,” “seek,” “expect,” “plan,” “intend,” the negative of such words or comparable terminology. In this presentation, we make forward-looking statements discussing management’s expectations for 2023 and the first quarter of 2023 about, among other things, economic conditions; the continuing and potential effects of the COVID-19 pandemic; opportunities in the market; our commitments and objectives in relation to sustainable finance and managing risks associated with climate change; the outlook on our clients' performance; our financial, credit, and business performance, including potential investment gains, loan and deposit growth, mix and yields/rates, and expense levels; our expected effective tax rate; the interest rate environment; accounting impacts and financial results (and the components of such results). Although we believe that the expectations reflected in our forward-looking statements are reasonable, we have based these expectations on our current beliefs as well as our assumptions, and such expectations may not prove to be correct. 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 our control. Our actual results of operations and financial performance could differ significantly from those expressed in or implied by our management’s forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ from the expectations stated in the forward-looking statements include, among others: market and economic conditions (including elevated inflation levels, sustained interest rate increases, the general condition of the capital and equity markets, and private equity and venture capital investment, IPO, secondary offering, SPAC fundraising, M&A and other financing activity levels) and the associated impact on us (including effects on total client funds and client demand for our commercial and investment banking and other financial services, as well as on the valuations of our investments); disruptions to the financial markets as a result of current or anticipated military conflicts, including the ongoing military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, terrorism and other geopolitical events; the COVID-19 pandemic, including COVID-19 variants and their effects on the economic and business environments in which we operate, and its effects on our business and operations; the impact of changes from the Biden-Harris administration and the U.S. Congress on the economic environment, capital markets and regulatory landscape, including monetary, tax and other trade policies, as well as regulatory changes from bank regulatory agencies; changes in the volume and credit quality of our loans as well as volatility of our levels of nonperforming assets and charge-offs; the impact of changes in interest rates or market levels or factors affecting or affected by them, including on our loan and investment portfolios and deposit costs; the adequacy of our allowance for credit losses and the need to make provisions for credit losses for any period; the sufficiency of our capital and liquidity positions, and our ability to generate capital or raise capital on favorable terms; changes in the levels or composition of our loans, deposits and client investment fund balances; changes in the performance or equity valuations of funds or companies in which we have invested or hold derivative instruments or equity warrant assets; variations from our expectations as to factors impacting our cost structure; changes in our assessment of the creditworthiness or liquidity of our clients or unanticipated effects of credit concentration risks which create or exacerbate deterioration of such creditworthiness or liquidity; variations from our expectations as to factors impacting the timing and level of employee share-based transactions; the occurrence of fraudulent activity, including breaches of our information security or cyber security-related incidents; business disruptions and interruptions due to natural disasters and other external events; the impact on our reputation and business from our interactions with business partners, counterparties, service providers and other third parties; the expansion of our business internationally, and the impact of geopolitical events and international market and economic events on us; the effectiveness of our risk management framework and quantitative models; unexpected delays or expenses associated with executing against our climate-related commitments and goals; the quality and availably of carbon emissions data; our ability to maintain or increase our market share, including through successfully implementing our business strategy and undertaking new business initiatives, including through the continuing integration of Boston Private, the expansion of SVB Private and the growth and expansion of SVB Securities; greater than expected costs or other difficulties related to the continuing integration of our business and that of Boston Private; variations from our expectations as to the amount and timing of business opportunities, growth prospects and cost savings associated with the acquisition of Boston Private; the inability to retain existing Boston Private clients and employees following the Boston Private acquisition; unfavorable resolution of legal proceedings or claims, as well as legal or regulatory proceedings or governmental actions; variations from our expectations as to factors impacting our estimate of our full-year effective tax rate; changes in applicable accounting standards and tax laws; and regulatory or legal changes (including changes to the laws and regulations that apply to us as a result of the growth of our business) and their impact on us. We refer you to the documents the Company files from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including (i) our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K, (ii) our most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and (iii) our most recent earnings release filed on Form 8-K. These documents contain and identify important risk factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those contained in our projections or other forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements included in this presentation are made only as of the date of this presentation. We assume no obligation and do not intend to revise or update any forward-looking statements contained in this presentation, except as required by law. This presentation shall not constitute an offer or solicitation in connection with any securities. Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures To supplement our financial disclosures that are presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance (including, but not limited to, non-GAAP core fee income, non-GAAP SVB Securities revenue, non-GAAP core fee income plus non-GAAP SVB Securities revenue, non-GAAP net gains on investment securities, non-GAAP non-marketable and other equity securities net of investments in qualified affordable housing projects and noncontrolling interests in non-marketable securities, and non- GAAP financial ratios) of financial performance. These supplemental performance measures may vary from, and may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures by other companies in our industry. Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. A non-GAAP financial measure may also be a financial metric that is not required by GAAP or other applicable requirement. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures (as applicable), provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by: (i) excluding amounts attributable to noncontrolling interests for which we effectively do not receive the economic benefit or cost of, where indicated, or (ii) providing additional information used by management that is not otherwise required by GAAP or other applicable requirements. Our management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to, these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our operating results and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate a comparison of our performance to prior periods. We believe these measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, net income or other financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Under the “Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” section in our latest earnings release attached as an exhibit to our Form 8-K on January 19, 2023, we have provided reconciliations of, where applicable, the most comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures used in this presentation, or a reconciliation of the non-GAAP calculation of the financial measure. Please refer to that section of the earnings release for more information. . Q4 2022 FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS 52
