ソース: Nasdaq GlobeNewswire / 27 4 2022 16:30:01 America/New_York
MATTOON, Ill., April 27, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- First Mid Bancshares, Inc. (NASDAQ: FMBH) (the “Company”) today announced its financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.
Highlights
- Net income of $16.6 million, or $0.86 diluted EPS
- Adjusted net income (non-GAAP) of $18.7 million, or $0.96 diluted EPS
- Completed the acquisition of Delta Bancshares Company (“Delta”) and its subsidiary Jefferson Bank and Trust (“Jefferson”) on February 14, 2022
- Strong quarter of wealth management and insurance revenues delivering on our unique diversification
- Board of Directors declared regular quarterly dividend of $0.22 per share
“We are off to a great start in 2022 with strong earnings across our diversified revenue streams,” said Joe Dively, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The quarter was highlighted by the closing of the Delta acquisition, which brings additional depth and an expanded retail presence to our St. Louis Metro footprint. The reception from Jefferson’s customers has been positive and our experienced integration team is preparing for a mid-June bank system conversion.”
“Our wealth management group had a great quarter led by higher farm services revenue with increasing commodity prices and farmland sales. Assets under management for the group increased to $5.4 billion. Our insurance group also had a strong start to the year, and combined with wealth management, these two business units recognized year-over-year revenue growth of 21.3%. In what has historically been a seasonally slow quarter for us, loan growth was 1.1%, normalized for acquired and Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans. I am pleased with the first quarter momentum and expect that to carry forward throughout the year,” Dively concluded.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the first quarter of 2022 increased by $0.8 million, or 1.8% compared to the fourth quarter of 2021. Interest income increased by $0.8 million and interest expense was flat from the previous quarter. The increase in interest income was primarily driven by a combination of organic growth and acquisitions. Accretion income increased by $0.4 million in the quarter to $1.1 million and ended the quarter with a remaining discount of $9.3 million. Interest expense was flat with slightly higher interest on deposits offset by lower interest on FHLB borrowings.
In comparison to the first quarter of 2021, net interest income increased $6.8 million, or 18.4%. The increase was primarily the result of organic loan growth and the impact of acquisitions. Total interest expense was lower by $0.4 million compared to the same quarter last year, despite the Delta acquisition and the first quarter 2021 acquisition of Providence Bank (“Providence”).
Net Interest Margin
Net interest margin, on a tax equivalent basis, was 3.07% for the first quarter of 2022, which was 4 basis points lower compared to the prior quarter. Earning asset yields declined by 4 basis points, with a decline in loan yields partially offset by higher rates on securities. Average cost of funds was flat at 26 basis points.
In comparison to the first quarter of last year, the net interest margin decreased 9 basis points, with earning asset yields down 19 basis points and average cost of funds lower by 10 basis points. The first quarter of 2021 included 19 basis points of PPP fee income.
Loan Portfolio
Total loans ended the quarter at $4.45 billion, representing an increase of $459.0 million compared to the prior quarter. The increase was primarily driven by the addition of Jefferson, which added $426.4 million. PPP loans declined by $11.0 million and ended the period with $5.8 million outstanding, including $0.8 million from Jefferson. Excluding PPP loans and the addition of Jefferson, loans increased $43.6 million, or 1.1%. Growth was primarily within our CRE and C&I sectors, partially offset by the seasonal paydowns in Ag operating lines and elevated commercial payoffs. The pipeline for loan growth continues to look solid across our footprint.
Asset Quality
The Company has always prided itself on a strong credit culture and the asset quality metrics for March 31, 2022 reflect those efforts. The allowance for credit losses at the end of the quarter was 1.31% of total loans. Also at quarter end, the ratio of non-performing loans to total loans was 0.50%, and the allowance for credit losses to non-performing loans was 260.3%. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.41% at quarter end. Nonperforming loans and nonperforming assets increased slightly in the period with the addition of Jefferson. The Company recognized a small amount of net recoveries during the first quarter compared to $1.8 million in net charge-offs during the prior quarter.
Provision expense was recorded in the amount of $3.0 million in the first quarter. The Company recorded $2.0 million for the non-PCD CECL requirement tied to the Jefferson acquisition. In addition to the non-PCD requirement related to the Jefferson acquisition, the Company added $0.9 million in PCD reserve through purchase accounting. In total, the allowance for credit losses increased $3.8 million to $58.5 million in the quarter.
Deposits
Total deposits ended the quarter at $5.49 billion, which represented an increase of $530.8 million from the prior quarter primarily from the addition of Jefferson, which added $558.6 million in deposits at the time the acquisition closed. Excluding Jefferson, total deposits decreased by $27.8 million driven primarily from maturing single-service time deposits. The Company’s average rate on cost of funds was 0.26%, flat compared to last quarter, and down from 0.36% in the first quarter of 2021.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2022 was $21.1 million compared to $18.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase compared to the prior quarter was partially due to the addition of Jefferson. Insurance and wealth management revenues represented 62% of total noninterest income reflecting the diversification of our revenue sources. Wealth management had a strong quarter of farm management fee income on higher commodity prices and farmland sales. Both the wealth management and insurance business are well diversified within their revenue sources and deliver consistent cash flows. Mortgage banking revenues declined by $0.4 million due to the macro conditions with limited housing supply and higher mortgage interest rates. As a percent of noninterest income, mortgage banking was 2.1%.
In comparison to the first quarter of 2021, noninterest income increased $3.3 million, or 18.8%. The year-over-year increase was driven by strong growth in our wealth management and insurance businesses and the addition of Jefferson, partially offset by a $1.0 million decline in mortgage banking revenue.
Noninterest Expenses
Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2022 totaled $40.4 million compared to $36.4 million in the fourth quarter. The increase was primarily driven by the addition of Jefferson, the producer incentive compensation tied to the strong business unit revenue growth, and overall inflationary pressures. The quarter included $0.6 million of acquisition related costs.
In comparison to the first quarter of 2021, noninterest expenses increased $2.8 million. The increase was primarily due to the addition of Jefferson and Providence, incentive compensation on business unit revenue growth, and overall inflationary pressures.
The Company’s efficiency ratio, as adjusted in the non-GAAP reconciliation table herein, for the first quarter 2022 was 58.6% compared to 55.8% in the prior quarter and 61.2% for the same period last year.
Capital Levels and Dividend
The Company’s capital levels remained strong and comfortably above the “well capitalized” levels. Capital levels ended the period as follows:
Total capital to risk-weighted assets 15.41% Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets 12.42% Common equity tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets 12.03% Leverage ratio 9.28% The Company’s Board of Directors approved a regular quarterly dividend in the amount of $0.22 payable on June 1, 2022 for shareholders of record on May 18, 2022.
While regulatory capital levels were strong, the Company’s tangible book value per common share declined in the period by approximately 11.6%. A portion of this decline was anticipated pursuant to the Jefferson acquisition where we announced an expected 3.0% dilution to tangible book value per common share at closing. However, the rapid move in interest rates during the quarter was the primary driver for the decline as the unrealized loss position on the investment portfolio increased to $74.0 million.
