ソース: Nasdaq GlobeNewswire / 20 10 2022 15:02:41 America/Chicago

LOWELL, Mass., Oct. 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Enterprise Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: EBTC), parent of Enterprise Bank, announced net income for the three months ended September 30, 2022, of $12.0 million, or $0.98 per diluted common share, compared to $9.8 million, or $0.81 per diluted common share, for the three months ended September 30, 2021.

Chief Executive Officer Jack Clancy commented, "Our third quarter operating results were very positive, highlighted by strong growth in net interest income during the period resulting primarily from strong loan and deposit growth of 15% (excluding PPP loans, non-GAAP) and 4%, respectively, over the last twelve months and from higher interest rates."

Executive Chairman & Founder George Duncan commented, "Other significant items during the third quarter
were the dividend declaration of $0.205 per share on October 18^th, an increase of 11% over the prior year period, and the Company's recognition at the Boston Business Journal's Corporate Citizenship Summit on September 8, 2022. We ranked 2^nd for the highest average hours of community service and 43^rd among the largest corporate donors in Massachusetts. I am personally very proud of this team accomplishment. Our commitment to the communities we serve in Massachusetts and New Hampshire is entrenched in our culture and reflects our deep sense of purpose as a genuine community bank. It is one of our key operating principles and strategies, along with our dedication to diversity, equity and inclusion, contiguous organic expansion into strong commercial markets, ongoing investment in our team members, and continuous strengthening of our digital security and capabilities."

Net Income
Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2022, amounted to $12.0 million, an increase of $2.1 million, or 22%, compared to the prior year period.

The increase in net income was due primarily to increases in net interest income of $3.9 million and non-interest income of $1.4 million, partially offset by increases in the provision for credit losses of $972 thousand and non-interest expense of $1.8 million.
Non-interest income for the prior year quarter was impacted by a loss of $1.8 million on the termination of swaps. Excluding this charge, non-interest income decreased $402 thousand compared to the prior year quarter.
For the three months ended September 30, 2022, the effective tax rate was 24.1%, compared to 25.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022, benefited from a lower effective tax rate compared to the prior year period due to increases in tax-exempt income and lower-taxed income at the Bank's security corporation subsidiaries.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2022, amounted to $39.8 million, an increase of $3.9 million, or 11%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021.

The increase in net interest income was due largely to increases in loan income, excluding Paycheck Protections Program ("PPP") income (non-GAAP), of $6.3 million, investment security income of $835 thousand, and other interest-earning asset income of $1.8 million, partially offset by a decrease in PPP income of $4.5 million and an increase in deposit interest expense of $598 thousand.
PPP income amounted to $437 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to $4.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. PPP loans outstanding amounted to $2.7 million at September 30, 2022, compared to $148.2 million at September 30, 2021, due to the continued forgiveness of PPP loans by the Small Business Administration (the "SBA") during the period.

Net Interest Margin
Tax-equivalent net interest margin ("net interest margin") was 3.61% for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to 3.45% and 3.39% for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively.

Key items impacting net interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the prior year period, included:

Average interest-earning deposits with banks decreased $302.9 million, or 45%, while the yield increased 202 basis points. The decrease in average balance resulted primarily from the funding of growth in the Company's higher yielding investment and core loan portfolios, partially offset by funds received from the forgiveness of PPP loans by the SBA. The increase in yield reflected higher market interest rates during the first nine months of 2022.
Average investment securities increased $274.2 million, or 40%, while the tax-equivalent yield decreased 35 basis points. The changes in average balance and yield resulted from investment security purchases in the second half of 2021 when market interest rates were lower than the current period.
Average loans increased $193.7 million, or 7%, while the tax-equivalent yield decreased 4 basis points, due primarily to the decrease in PPP income.
- Average PPP loans outstanding decreased $216.5 million, or 97%, due to the continued forgiveness of PPP loans by the SBA during the period.
- Average core loans (non-GAAP) increased $410.2 million, or 15%, and the yield increased 25 basis points. Core loan yields have benefited primarily from increases in the prime lending rate of 300 basis points between March and September of 2022.
Average total deposits increased $153.9 million, or 4%, and the yield increased 5 basis points.
Adjusted net interest margin (non-GAAP), amounted to 3.71% and 3.68%, respectively.
Adjusted net interest margin (non-GAAP) for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as disclosed in the prior quarter earnings release, amounted to 3.55%.

Provision for Credit Losses
The provision for credit losses for the three months ended September 30, 2022, amounted to $1.0 million, compared to $28 thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2021.

The provision for the three months ended September 30, 2022, consisted of $560 thousand for loans outstanding and $440 thousand for reserves on unfunded commitments (included in other liabilities).
The majority of the provision for credit losses during the third quarter of 2022 related to growth in the Company's loan portfolio and in off-balance sheet commitments related primarily to commercial construction lending.

Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2022, amounted to $4.5 million, an increase of $1.4 million, or 47%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021.

Non-interest income in the prior year period included a loss on termination of swaps of $1.8 million. Excluding this item, non-interest income decreased $402 thousand, or 8%, resulting primarily from decreases in wealth management fees of $142 thousand, gains on sales of loans of $169 thousand, losses on equity securities of $199 thousand, and other income of $176 thousand, partially offset by an increase in deposit and interchange fees of $232 thousand.

Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022, amounted to $27.5 million, an increase of $1.8 million, or 7%, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2021.

The increase in non-interest expense over the respective periods resulted primarily from increases in salaries and employee benefits of $1.7 million and other operating expenses of $275 thousand, partially offset by a decrease in occupancy and equipment expenses of $268 thousand.

Credit Quality
The allowance for credit losses ("ACL") for loans amounted to $51.2 million, or 1.65% of total loans, at September 30, 2022, compared to $47.7 million, or 1.63% of total loans, at December 31, 2021. The reserve for unfunded commitments (included in other liabilities) amounted to $4.1 million at September 30, 2022, compared to $3.7 million at December 31, 2021. The Company continues to closely monitor credit quality as concerns regarding forecasted economic conditions worsen due to the rising interest rate environment and persistent high inflation levels in our market areas and the United States.

Net charge-offs for the three months ended September 30, 2022, amounted to $52 thousand, compared to $2.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Net charge-offs for the three months ended September 30, 2021, related primarily to two individually evaluated commercial loans, which were fully reserved for prior to 2021.

Non-performing assets amounted to $5.7 million, or 0.13% of total assets, at September 30, 2022, compared to $26.5 million, or 0.60% of total assets, at December 31, 2021. The decrease in non-performing assets was due primarily to two commercial relationships, amounting to $17.9 million, which were upgraded and restored to accrual status during the second quarter of 2022, due to improved financial strength and consistent payment history.

Balance Sheet
Total assets amounted to $4.53 billion at September 30, 2022, compared to $4.45 billion at December 31, 2021, an increase of $82.0 million, or 2%.

Total interest-earning deposits with banks amounted to $368.3 million at September 30, 2022, compared to $403.0 million at December 31, 2021, a decrease of $34.7 million, or 9%.

Total investment securities at fair value amounted to $831.0 million at September 30, 2022, compared to $958.2 million at December 31, 2021, a decrease of $127.2 million, or 13%. The change resulted primarily from a decline in the fair value of the Company's debt securities portfolio of $129.6 million during the period. Management has concluded that the unrealized losses resulted from significant increases in market interest rates during the first nine months of 2022 and that no allowance for credit losses was considered necessary as of September 30, 2022.

Total loans amounted to $3.11 billion at September 30, 2022, compared to $2.92 billion at December 31, 2021, an increase of $188.7 million, or 6%.

Core loans (non-GAAP) increased $257.5 million, or 9%, over the respective periods. Included in the loan growth for the period was $64.7 million in retained residential mortgages.

Customer deposits amounted to $4.14 billion at September 30, 2022, compared to $3.98 billion at December 31, 2021, an increase of $157.8 million, or 4%.

Shareholders' Equity & Regulatory Capital
Total shareholders' equity amounted to $272.2 million at September 30, 2022, compared to $346.9 million at December 31, 2021, a decrease of $74.7 million, or 22%. The change was attributable primarily to a decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") of $100.3 million since December 31, 2021, partially offset by an increase in retained earnings of $23.0 million over the same period. The change in AOCI resulted from a decrease in the fair value of debt securities, which is attributed to the significant increase in market interest rates during the period. The Company classifies all debt securities as available-for-sale and anticipates they will mature or be called at par value.

The Company's reported book value per common share and return on average shareholders' equity ratios were impacted by the change in AOCI as follows:

Book value per common share was $22.44 at September 30, 2022, compared to $28.82 at December 31, 2021, a decrease of 22%. Excluding AOCI (non-GAAP), book value per common share was $30.33 at September 30, 2022 and $28.43 at December 31, 2021, an increase of 7%.
Return on average shareholders' equity was 16.47% and 12.56% for the quarters ended September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively. Return on average shareholders' equity, excluding AOCI (non-GAAP), was 12.95% and 12.69% for the quarters ended September 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, respectively.

Total Capital and Tier 1 Capital to risk weighted assets, of which AOCI is not of component, amounted to 13.49% and 10.52%, respectively, at September 30, 2022 compared to 13.73% and 10.62%, respectively, at December 31, 2021. The decrease in each ratio was due primarily to strong core loan growth (non-GAAP) over the respective periods, which require higher capital reserves than interest-earning deposits with banks.

Tier 1 Capital to average assets, of which AOCI is not a component, amounted to 7.89% at September 30, 2022, compared to 7.56% at December 31, 2021. The increase was driven primarily by the increase in retained earnings noted above, partially offset by an increase in average assets.

Wealth Management
Wealth assets under management and wealth assets under administration, which are not carried as assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheets, amounted to $835.7 million and $186.0 million, respectively, at September 30, 2022, representing decreases of $205.7 million, or 20%, and $71.9 million, or 28%, respectively, compared to December 31, 2021. The decreases in wealth assets under management and wealth assets under administration were attributable primarily to declines in market values during the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Non-GAAP Measures
Throughout this press release, certain measures have been adjusted to provide what management believes are more meaningful comparisons between periods. The items principally impacted and reported as non-GAAP were loans (PPP loans), liquidity (interest-earning deposits with banks), shareholders' equity (AOCI), and any related measures presented. We refer to any measure that excludes PPP loans as "core" and any measure that excludes PPP loans and interest-earning deposits with banks as "adjusted." The activity which resulted in the Company's use of non-GAAP measures consisted of: (1) the Company's origination of over $715 million in short-term PPP loans between April 2020 and May 2021; (2) forgiveness of PPP loans by the SBA which began in November 2020 and continued through the current period, and approximately 99.6% of the principal balance of PPP loans originated by the Company has been forgiven by the SBA through September 30, 2022; (3) liquidity, carried as lower-yielding interest-earning deposits with banks, had increased significantly following the trends in customer deposits and PPP loan forgiveness by the SBA over the past two years; and (4) the significant increase in market interest rates during the first nine months of 2022 has resulted in unrealized losses in the Company's available-for-sale debt securities portfolio at September 30, 2022 of $123.7 million and an accumulated other comprehensive loss, included in shareholder's equity, of $95.7 million. The tables beginning on page 12 of this press release provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the information presented under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").
