(the &#8220;Company&#8221;) expects its third quarter 2018 net income and earnings per share to be adversely affected by a charge arising from a single asset-based lending relationship at its banking subsidiary, TBK Bank, SSB.&nbsp;&nbsp;The charge resulted from fraudulent conduct believed to be perpetrated by one or more employees of the borrower.&nbsp;&nbsp;The primary cause of the charge is the borrower&#8217;s submission of false borrowing base certificates and supporting documentation that resulted in advances in excess of available collateral.&nbsp;&nbsp;A notice of default has been issued to the borrower and the facility is in the process of liquidation.&nbsp;&nbsp;</font></p>

Based on the Company&#8217;s review of the circumstances of the fraudulent activities involving this borrower and a review conducted of the remainder of its asset-based lending portfolio, the Company believes this incident is an isolated occurrence and not indicative of deterioration of credit in its overall loan portfolio or an increase in exposure to fraud related losses in its asset-based lending business.</p>

Item 7.01.
Regulation FD Disclosure.
Triumph Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") expects its third quarter 2018 net income and earnings per share to be adversely affected by a charge arising from a single asset-based lending relationship at its banking subsidiary, TBK Bank, SSB.  The charge resulted from fraudulent conduct believed to be perpetrated by one or more employees of the borrower.  The primary cause of the charge is the borrower's submission of false borrowing base certificates and supporting documentation that resulted in advances in excess of available collateral.  A notice of default has been issued to the borrower and the facility is in the process of liquidation.
The Company currently estimates that it will charge off approximately $4.0 million as a result of this loan relationship in its financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2018.  Approximately $0.7 million of the charge off had specific reserves previously recorded.   In addition, the Company expects that the charge-off will result in an increase in the estimate of its allowance for loan loss reserves recorded against the remaining asset-based lending portfolio in an amount up to approximately $2.7 million as a result of higher loss factors being incorporated into the Company's allowance for loan loss reserve methodology for the three months ended September 30, 2018.  The Company estimates that its third quarter after-tax earnings per share will be reduced by an amount up to approximately $0.17 per diluted share as a result of the aggregate impact of these items.
The Company is working to preserve and recover assets in connection with the liquidation of the borrower.  The remaining balance of the loan after the charge off is $3.2 million. Based on the Company's review of the circumstances of the fraudulent activities involving this borrower and a review conducted of the remainder of its asset-based lending portfolio, the Company believes this incident is an isolated occurrence and not indicative of deterioration of credit in its overall loan portfolio or an increase in exposure to fraud related losses in its asset-based lending business.
The information in this Item 7.01 shall be considered furnished for purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1932 (the "
Exchange Act
") and shall not be deemed "filed" for any purpose.
