Community Bank System, Inc. (NYSE:CBU) reported first quarter 2014 net
income of $22.2 million, an increase of 9.5% compared with $20.2 million
earned for the first quarter of 2013. Diluted earnings per share totaled
$0.54 for the first quarter of 2014, up 8.0% from $0.50 reported in the
first quarter of 2013. First quarter 2014 net income and noninterest
income were the highest quarterly amounts ever recorded by the Company.
Total revenue for the first quarter of 2014 was $88.5 million, an
increase of $3.9 million, or 4.7%, over the first quarter of 2013.
Higher revenue resulted from an eight-basis point increase in the
Company’s net interest margin to 3.94%, primarily related to a
significant decline in borrowing costs resulting from balance sheet
repositioning actions in 2013. Additionally, continued organic growth
drove a $1.4 million, or 10.7% increase in the Company’s revenue from
its wealth management and employee benefit services businesses. Banking
fee income from deposit services and mortgage banking, increased $0.8
million year-over-year, while linked quarter revenues were lower, as
seasonally expected. Revenue growth was supported by an increased core
deposit account base resulting from solid organic growth in addition to
the successful integration of eight Bank of America branches acquired in
Pennsylvania in late 2013. The quarterly provision for loan losses
of $1.0 million was $0.4 million lower than the first quarter of 2013,
reflective of lower net charge-offs and the continuation of generally
stable and favorable asset quality metrics. Total operating expenses
of $55.9 million for the quarter were $1.4 million, or 2.5%, higher than
the first quarter of 2013, driven by the additional operating costs
associated with the completed Bank of America branch acquisitions and
atypically higher seasonal maintenance and utility costs.
“Community Bank’s trend of solid execution continued again in 2014’s
first quarter, with strong operating results demonstrating the strength
of our diversified franchise,” said President and Chief Executive
Officer Mark E. Tryniski. “The momentum from our successful balance
sheet initiatives and branch acquisitions in 2013 were catalysts for
improved results as we began 2014. Our employee benefit services and
wealth management groups delivered record earnings on robust growth in
existing and new customer relationships. Loans and deposits grew from
year-ago levels, while strong asset quality continued to reflect the
strength of our underwriting and stable economic trends in our markets.
In 2014 we continue to focus on executing our long-term approach to
value creation for the benefit of our shareholders.”
First quarter 2014 net interest income was $60.1 million, an increase of
$1.7 million, or 2.9%, compared to the first quarter of 2013. In
addition to the $0.9 million benefit to interest expense from continued
deposit growth and an improved funding mix, growth in net interest
income was driven by a $5.5 million decrease in borrowing interest
expense resulting from last year’s balance sheet repositioning actions.
These actions effectively lowered the cost of borrowed funds by 286
basis points and contributed to a $283.9 million decline in average
borrowed funds year-over-year. Improved funding costs were partially
offset by a 31-basis point decline in earning asset yields, driven by
lower blended interest rates on loans and investment securities. While
average loan balances grew $239.1 million, or 6.2%, average loan yields
declined 43 basis points year-over-year, resulting in a $1.4 million
reduction in loan income. Investment income fell $3.3 million largely
due to the Company’s balance sheet repositioning actions in 2013, which
resulted in average investment securities balances (including cash
equivalents) falling by $222.5 million compared to the prior year’s
first quarter, while yields fell 23 basis points.
First quarter non-interest income increased $2.3 million to $28.4
million, representing an increase of 8.6% compared to last year’s first
quarter. Income expanded across all banking and financial services
categories. Financial services revenue reached record levels as wealth
management revenues increased $0.8 million, or 21.0% over first quarter
2013, while employee benefit services revenue grew 6.8% to $10.4
million. Strong customer expansion and market momentum from 2013 drove
the improved performance. Deposit service revenues grew $0.7 million, or
5.7%, to $12.3 million, reflecting meaningful core deposit account
growth as a result of the branch acquisitions and organic growth
initiatives across the franchise.
Quarterly operating expenses of $55.9 million increased $1.4 million, or
2.5%, over the first quarter of 2013. Occupancy and equipment costs grew
$0.6 million, or 8.9%, primarily as a result of the December 2013 branch
acquisitions as well as higher facility maintenance and utility costs in
more severe winter conditions compared to the first quarter of 2013.
Salaries and employee benefits grew $0.3 million, or 0.8%, and included
the additional personnel from the branch acquisitions as well as merit
increases. These increases were partially offset by lower retirement
plan expenses related to plan asset performance and discount rate
changes. Other expenses further reflected the increased costs of
operating an expanded franchise, with acquisition expenses totaling $0.1
million and total other expenses rising $0.4 million, or 2.2%.
The first quarter 2014 effective income tax rate of 29.7% increased
compared to 29.2% in last year’s first quarter, reflecting a higher
proportion of income being generated from fully taxable sources.
Financial Position
Average earning assets of $6.6 billion for the first quarter of 2014
were essentially flat with the linked and prior year first quarter.
Overall average earning asset balances included growth of $30.6 million
in average loan balances, while average investment securities and cash
balances declined by an offsetting $29.4 million. Lower securities
balances reflect the full-quarter impact of fourth quarter 2013 balance
sheet actions, including sales of collateralized debt obligation
securities and certain Treasury securities. Average deposits increased
$238.2 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2013, and were up
$258.3 million from the first quarter of 2013, principally from the
branch acquisition.
Ending loans at March 31, 2014 increased $234.8 million, or 6.1%,
year-over-year, reflecting strong organic growth in the Company’s
consumer lending portfolios. Ending loans decreased $12.7 million from
December 31, 2013, reflecting normal seasonal fluctuations. Ending
investment securities, including cash equivalents, totaled $2.52 billion
at March 31, 2014, or $137.9 million lower than March 31, 2013 due to
the balance sheet restructuring initiatives undertaken in 2013.
Quarter-end borrowings of $217.1 million were $144.3 million lower than
the year-ago quarter, also due to the balance sheet restructuring
actions and net liquidity from the branch acquisitions. Deposit balances
at March 31, 2014 totaled $6.04 billion, up $264.1 million, or 4.6%,
from the year-ago quarter. Deposit balances grew $142.8 million from
December 31, 2013, and included the expected seasonal increase in
municipal funds. Growth across all core deposit categories outpaced
declines in time deposit balances.
Shareholders’ equity of $918.1 million at March 31, 2014 was $40.8
million, or 4.7%, higher than the prior year quarter-end, primarily due
to strong earnings generation and retention over the last four quarters.
The Company’s net tangible equity to net tangible assets ratio was 7.97%
at March 31, 2014, up from 7.68% at December 31, 2013. Its Tier 1
leverage ratio grew to 9.48% for the current quarter, up 19 basis points
from the fourth quarter of 2013.
Asset Quality
The Company’s asset quality metrics continue to be favorable relative to
comparative peer and industry averages and illustrate the long-term
effectiveness of the Company’s disciplined risk management and
underwriting standards. Net charge-offs were $1.1 million for the first
quarter, compared to $2.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2013 and
$1.4 million for first quarter of 2013. As an annualized percentage of
average loans, net charge-offs measured 0.11% in the first quarter of
2014, compared to 0.29% and 0.14% in the linked and year-ago quarters,
respectively. Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans at
March 31, 2014 were 0.58%, compared to 0.54% at December 31, 2013, and
down from 0.71% of total loans at March 31, 2013. The total delinquency
ratio of 1.25% at the end of the first quarter was down 24 basis points
from the end of 2013 and down 30 basis points from March 31, 2013. The
first quarter provision for loan losses of $1.0 million was $2.2
million, or 68.6% lower than the fourth quarter of 2013, and $0.4
million, or 28.2%, lower than the first quarter of 2013. The allowance
for loan losses to nonperforming loans was 187% at March 31, 2014,
compared to 201% at December 31, 2013 and 157% as of March 31, 2013.
Cash Dividend Declared / Stock Repurchase Authorization

Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend to shareholders of
$0.28 per share on its common stock. The dividend was paid on April 10,
