• Independent Bank Corporation Reports 2021 Second Quarter Results

    المصدر: Nasdaq GlobeNewswire / 29 يوليو 2021 07:59:00   America/New_York

    GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., July 29, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Independent Bank Corporation (NASDAQ: IBCP) reported second quarter 2021 net income of $12.4 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, versus net income of $14.8 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, in the prior-year period. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company reported net income of $34.4 million, or $1.56 per diluted share, compared to net income of $19.6 million, or $0.88 per diluted share, in the prior-year period. The decline in second quarter 2021 earnings as compared to 2020 primarily reflects a decrease in non-interest income and an increase in non-interest expense that were partially offset by an increase in net interest income and decreases in the provision for credit losses and income tax expense. The increase in year-to-date 2021 earnings as compared to 2020 primarily reflects increases in net interest income and non-interest income and a decrease in the provision for credit losses that were partially offset by increases in non-interest expense and income tax expense.

    Highlights for the second quarter of 2021 include:

    • Annualized return on average assets and on average equity of 1.12% and 12.78%, respectively;
    • An increase in net interest income of 3.1% over the second quarter of 2020;
    • Net gains on mortgage loans of $9.1 million and total mortgage loan origination volume of $473.7 million;
    • Net growth in portfolio loans of $30.3 million (or 4.4% annualized);
    • Continued strong asset quality metrics as evidenced by net loan recoveries during the quarter as well as a low level of non-performing loans and non-performing assets; and
    • The payment of a 21 cent per share dividend on common stock on May 14, 2021.

    Highlights for the first six months of 2021 include:

    • Increases in net income and diluted earnings per share of 75.8% and 77.3%, respectively;
    • Annualized return on average assets and on average equity of 1.60% and 18.06%, respectively;
    • Net gains on mortgage loans of $21.9 million and total mortgage loan origination volume of $982.7 million;
    • Net growth in portfolio loans of $80.9 million (or 6.0% annualized);
    • Net growth in deposits of $225.1 million (or 12.5% annualized).

    Significant items impacting comparable quarterly and year to date 2021 and 2020 results include the following:

    • Changes in the fair value due to price of capitalized mortgage loan servicing rights (the “MSR Changes”) of a negative $2.4 million ($0.09 per diluted share, after taxes) and a positive $2.2 million ($0.08 per diluted share, after taxes) for the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, as compared to a negative $2.9 million ($0.10 per diluted share, after taxes) and a negative $8.9 million ($0.31 per diluted share, after taxes) for the three- and six-months ended June 30, 2020, respectively.

    William B. (“Brad”) Kessel, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Independent Bank Corporation, commented: “We are pleased to report a solid financial performance for the second quarter and first six months of 2021. Economic activity and business conditions have improved in our markets. Earning asset growth, including portfolio loans, has resulted in an increase in net interest income in 2021 compared to the year ago period. Mortgage loan origination activity continues to be strong. Asset quality metrics have been exceptional in 2021. Our ratio of non-performing assets to total assets declined to 0.12% at June 30, 2021, and COVID related loan forbearance balances decreased by 40.5% during the first six months of 2021, which represents only 0.5% of our total loans at June 30, 2021.”

    Kessel added: “During the second quarter of 2021, we also completed our conversion to a new modern core platform with flexible application processing interfaces (APIs). This change now allows faster integration with new technology, real-time processing capabilities, and better access to our data and decision management using that data. Initial feedback from our customer base includes much excitement about ONE Wallet, our new mobile and online platform for consumer and business clients. This platform provides customers with the ability to open new accounts and apply for loans online, along with enhanced transfer, bill pay, and self-service capabilities. In addition, ONE Wallet+ enables our customers to monitor all of their finances in one location and provides budgeting and spending analytical tools. ONE Wallet+ has experienced a very strong adoption rate.”

    Kessel concluded: “As we look ahead to the balance of 2021 and beyond, we are mindful that although economic conditions have improved, challenges from the pandemic remain. However, we are confident of our continued ability to effectively respond to these challenges and remain optimistic about our future.”

    Operating Results

    The Company’s net interest income totaled $31.4 million during the second quarter of 2021, an increase of $0.9 million, or 3.1% from the year-ago period, and up $1.1 million, or 3.7%, from the first quarter of 2021. The Company’s tax equivalent net interest income as a percent of average interest-earning assets (the “net interest margin”) was 3.02% during the second quarter of 2021, compared to 3.36% in the year-ago period, and 3.05% in the first quarter of 2021. The year-over-year quarterly increase in net interest income was due to an increase in average interest-earning assets that was partially offset by a decline in the net interest margin. Average interest-earning assets were $4.22 billion in the second quarter of 2021, compared to $3.66 billion in the year ago quarter and $4.05 billion in the first quarter of 2021.

    For the first six months of 2021, net interest income totaled $61.7 million, an increase of $1.0 million, or 1.7% from the first half of 2020. The Company’s net interest margin for the first six months of 2021 was 3.04% compared to 3.49% in 2020. The increase in net interest income for the first six months of 2021 compared to 2020 was also due to an increase in average interest-earning assets that was partially offset by a decline in the net interest margin.

    Due principally to the economic impact of COVID-19, the Federal Reserve has taken a variety of actions to stimulate the economy, including significantly lowering short-term interest rates. These lower interest rates combined with a higher allocation to lower yielding securities available for sale has placed continued pressure on the Company’s net interest margin.

    In addition, commercial loan balances, interest income and yields have been impacted by Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) lending activity. PPP lending activity is summarized in the following tables:

    Non-interest income totaled $14.8 million and $41.2 million, respectively, for the second quarter and first six months of 2021, compared to $20.4 million and $31.4 million in the respective comparable year ago periods. These changes were primarily due to variances in mortgage banking related revenues (net gains on mortgage loans and mortgage loan servicing, net).

    Net gains on mortgage loans in the second quarters of 2021 and 2020, were approximately $9.1 million and $17.6 million, respectively. For the first six months of 2021, net gains on mortgage loans totaled $21.9 million compared to $26.5 million in 2020. The decrease in net gains on mortgage loans was primarily due to a decline in mortgage loan sales volume in 2021, lower profit margins on mortgage loan sales, and fair value adjustments on the mortgage loan pipeline.

    Mortgage loan servicing, net, generated a loss of $2.0 million and a loss of $3.0 million in the second quarters of 2021 and 2020, respectively. For the first six months of 2021 and 2020, mortgage loan servicing, net, generated income of $3.2 million and a loss of $8.3 million, respectively. The significant variances in mortgage loan servicing, net are primarily due to changes in the fair value of capitalized mortgage loan servicing rights associated with changes in mortgage loan interest rates and expected future prepayment levels. Mortgage loan servicing, net activity is summarized in the following table:

     Three Months Ended
    Six Months Ended
      6/30/2021 6/30/20206/30/2021 6/30/2020

    Total$(1,962)$(3,022)$3,205 $(8,322)
                 

    Net gain on securities available for sale totaled zero and $1.4 million in second quarter and first six months of 2021, respectively, compared to zero and $0.3 million in the prior year second quarter and first six months, respectively. The increased gain that occurred in the first quarter of 2021 was related to the divestiture of a group of mortgage backed securities.

    Non-interest expenses totaled $32.5 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared to $27.3 million in the year-ago period. For the first six months of 2021, non-interest expenses totaled $62.6 million versus $56.1 million in 2020. These year-over-year increases in non-interest expense are primarily due to increases in compensation and employee benefits, data processing, interchange and conversion related expenses. The increase in compensation and employee benefits in 2021 is due to several factors, including, wage increases that were generally effective at the start of the year, increased overtime primarily associated with a data processing conversion, a higher accrual for incentive compensation (due to expected actual performance compared to targets), higher payroll taxes due to the increase in compensation and higher health care insurance costs (these costs during the first six months of 2020 were unusually low due to the various COVID related lock-downs). In addition, the second quarter and first six months of 2021 included $1.1 million and $1.4 million, respectively, of expenses related to the Company’s core data processing conversion (this conversion was completed in May 2021) compared to $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively, in the comparable periods in 2020. The second quarter and first six months of 2020 also included $0.4 million of expenses (primarily write-downs of fixed assets and leases) related to the closures of six bank branch offices that were completed in the third quarter of 2020.

    The Company recorded an income tax expense of $2.7 million and $7.8 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2021, respectively. This compares to an income tax expense of $3.5 million and $4.5 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2020, respectively. The changes in income tax expense principally reflect changes in pre-tax earnings in 2021 relative to 2020.

    Ratio of the allowance for credit losses to non-performing loans 897.34% 450.01% 279.60%
        

    (1) Excludes loans that are classified as “troubled debt restructured” that are still performing.

    Non-performing loans decreased $2.8 million from December 31, 2020, as all loan categories have declined, reflecting improving economic conditions and the Company’s collection efforts.

    The provision for credit losses was a credit of $1.4 million and an expense of $5.2 million in the second quarters of 2021 and 2020, respectively. The provision for credit losses was a credit of $1.9 million and an expense of $11.9 million in the first six months of 2021 and 2020, respectively. The quarterly and year-to-date decreases in the provision for credit losses in 2021 compared to 2020, were primarily the result of a decline in the balance of loans individually evaluated in the allowance for credit losses, slightly lower reserve allocations (reflecting an improvement in economic forecasts, particularly for lower unemployment levels) for pooled loans evaluated in the allowance for credit losses and a decrease in the adjustment to allocations based on subjective factors. In particular, the higher year-to-date provision for credit losses in 2020 included an $8.7 million (or 98.2%) increase in the qualitative/subjective portion of the allowance for credit losses. That increase in 2020 principally reflected the unique challenges and prevailing economic uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic and the potential impact on the loan portfolio.

    The Company recorded loan net recoveries of $0.6 million and loan net charge-offs of $3.2 million in the second quarters of 2021 and 2020, respectively. For the first six months of 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded loan net recoveries of $0.7 million and loan net charge-offs of $3.6 million, respectively.

    The allowance for credit losses totaled $45.9 million at June 30, 2021 compared to $35.4 million at December 31, 2020. The increase from December 31, 2020 is attributed to the adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update 2016-13, Financial Instruments — Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“CECL”) on January 1, 2021. The impact of the adoption of CECL was an increase in the allowance for credit losses of $11.7 million. At June 30, 2021, the allowance for credit losses equaled 1.63% of total portfolio loans (1.73% when excluding PPP loans) under CECL, compared to 1.30% of total portfolio loans (1.38% when excluding PPP loans) at December 31, 2020, under the probable incurred loss methodology.

    Balance Sheet, Liquidity and Capital

    Total assets were $4.46 billion at June 30, 2021, an increase of $257.3 million from December 31, 2020. Loans, excluding loans held for sale, were $2.81 billion at June 30, 2021, compared to $2.73 billion at December 31, 2020. Deposits totaled $3.86 billion at June 30, 2021, an increase of $225.1 million from December 31, 2020. This increase is primarily due to growth in non-interest bearing, savings and interest-bearing checking and reciprocal deposit account balances.

    Cash and cash equivalents totaled $69.3 million at June 30, 2021, compared to $118.7 million at December 31, 2020. Securities available for sale totaled $1.33 billion at June 30, 2021, compared to $1.07 billion at December 31, 2020. The significant increase in securities available for sale is due to the deployment of funds generated from the growth in deposits.

    Total shareholders’ equity was $396.0 million at June 30, 2021, or 8.88% of total assets. Tangible common equity totaled $363.9 million at June 30, 2021, or $16.82 per share. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Independent Bank, remains significantly above “well capitalized” for regulatory purposes with the following ratios:

    Share Repurchase Plan

    On December 18, 2020, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the 2021 share repurchase plan. Under the terms of the 2021 share repurchase plan, the Company is authorized to purchase up to 1,100,000 shares, or approximately 5% of its outstanding common stock.

    Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

    Independent Bank Corporation

    Independent Bank Corporation believes non-GAAP measures are meaningful because they reflect adjustments commonly made by management, investors, regulators and analysts to evaluate the adequacy of common equity and performance trends. Tangible common equity is used by the Company to measure the quality of capital.
