TowneBank Reports Full Year and Fourth Quarter Financial Results for 2018

TOWN

SUFFOLK, Va., Jan. 24, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TowneBank (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: TOWN) today reported financial results for the full year and the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2018.  For the year ended December 31, 2018, earnings were $133.79 million, or $1.88 per diluted share, compared to $87.66 million, or $1.41 per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2017.  “2018 was a great year for TowneBank, highlighted by a strong operating performance, continued number one deposit market share in Hampton Roads, and a successful merger with Paragon Commercial Corporation.  At $133.79 million, annual net income increased 52.62% over 2017, credit quality remained strong and our annual return on average assets was 1.26%,” said G. Robert Aston, Jr., Executive Chairman.

Earnings in fourth quarter 2017 included an expense of $10.11 million related to the enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“Tax Reform”) and fourth quarter 2018 included an expense of $0.70 million due to the finalization of the provisional component of the impact of Tax Reform.  Excluding acquisition-related expenses and adjustments related to tax reform, earnings for the year ended December 31, 2018 were $141.50 million (non-GAAP), or $1.98 (non-GAAP) per diluted share, compared to $97.18 million (non-GAAP), or $1.56 (non-GAAP) per diluted share for the year ended December 31, 2017.

Earnings for the fourth quarter were $35.99 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, versus $12.33 million, or $0.20 per diluted share,  for the quarter ended December 31, 2017.  Excluding acquisition-related expenses and adjustments related to tax reform, earnings for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 were $35.52 million (non-GAAP), or $0.49 (non-GAAP) per diluted share, compared to $22.87 million (non-GAAP), or $0.37 (non-GAAP) per diluted share for the quarter ended December 31, 2017.

Highlights for the Fourth Quarter of 2018 Compared to the Fourth Quarter of 2017:

  • Total revenues were $131.42 million, an increase of $22.28 million, or 20.41%.
  • Loans held for investment increased $2.07 billion, or 34.83%, from December 31, 2017, and $0.14 billion, or 1.73%, from September 30, 2018, or 6.87% on an annualized basis.  Excluding loans acquired in the Paragon merger of $1.43 billion, loans increased $638.77 million, or 10.74% from December 31, 2017.
  • Total deposits were $8.37 billion, an increase of $1.92 billion, or 29.81%.
  • Noninterest bearing deposits increased by 21.57%, to $2.62 billion, representing 31.33% of total deposits.
  • Annualized return on common shareholders' equity of 9.53% and annualized return on average tangible common shareholders' equity of 15.11% (non-GAAP).
  • Net interest margin of 3.53% and taxable equivalent net interest margin of 3.55% (non-GAAP).
  • Effective tax rate of 22.33% benefiting from the lower federal rate related to Tax Reform, partially offset by the finalization of the provisional component of the Tax Reform impact.

“Our team worked hard in 2018 as is evident by our stellar performance.  Throughout the year we focused our efforts on cultivating the benefits achieved through our successful Paragon merger and organic growth.  These efforts resulted in annual loan growth of 10.74%, balanced across legacy and new markets, excluding loans acquired in the Paragon merger.  We have also been working diligently to identify market opportunities in North Carolina where we can share our unique brand of Hometown Banking,” said J. Morgan Davis, President and Chief Executive Officer.

Note:  This information is intended for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of future results.
    Actual results may differ due to factors such as changes in estimated prepayment speeds or projected credit loss rates.

Quarterly Provision for Loan Losses:

  • Recorded a provision for loan losses of $2.29 million compared to $0.87 million one year ago and $1.24 million in the prior quarter.
  • Net charge-offs were $0.43 million compared to $0.14 million one year prior.  The ratio of net charge-offs to average loans on an annualized basis was 0.02% compared to 0.03% in the prior quarter and 0.01% for the fourth quarter of 2017.
  • The allowance for loan losses represented 0.65% of total loans compared to 0.64% at September 30, 2018 and 0.76% at December 31, 2017.  Loan loss reserve as a percentage of total loans, excluding purchased loans, remained unchanged at 0.82%, from September 30, 2018, and decreased from 0.86% at December 31, 2017.  The allowance for loan losses was 10.97 times nonperforming loans compared to 7.25 times at September 30, 2018 and 9.39 times at December 31, 2017.

Quarterly Noninterest Income Compared to the Fourth Quarter of 2017:

  • Total noninterest income was $42.21 million compared to $43.48 million in 2017.  Increases of $1.16 million in real estate brokerage and property management income and $1.10 million in insurance commissions were offset by a decrease in residential mortgage brokerage income of $4.59 million.
  • Property management fee revenue increased 39.08%, or $1.07 million, primarily related to a change in the timing of revenue recognition due to the adoption of new accounting guidance on revenue recognition.  The change in accounting guidance resulted in an increase of property management fee income for the fourth quarter of approximately $0.84 million.
  • Insurance segment total revenue increased $1.75 million or 12.31% to $15.92 million in the fourth quarter.  The increase is primarily attributable to revenue generated by insurance agencies acquired in the second and fourth quarters of 2018, in addition to a rise in revenue from benefit insurance.
  • Residential mortgage banking income was $12.95 million compared to $17.54 million in fourth quarter 2017.  Loan volume in the current quarter was $600.07 million, with purchases comprising $531.87 million and refinancing activity accounting for $68.20 million.  Loan volume in fourth quarter 2017 was $797.74 million, with purchase activity of $657.28 million and refinancing activity of $140.46 million.  Lower volumes and continued pressure on gain on sale margin led to the decline in revenue.

Quarterly Noninterest Expense Compared to the Fourth Quarter of 2017:

  • Total noninterest expense was $82.34 million compared to $73.66 million, an increase of $8.68 million, or 11.78%.  This reflects increases of $8.27 million in salary and benefits expense, $1.29 million in intangible amortization expense, and $0.89 million in outside processing expenses.
  • Noninterest expense included operational expenses of entities acquired subsequent to fourth quarter 2017 of $8.75 million, primarily in our Banking and Insurance segments.  Excluding acquired entity expenses, noninterest expense was $73.59 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2018, or a decrease of 0.09% compared to 2017.

Quarterly Income Taxes Compared to the Fourth Quarter of 2017:

  • Income tax expense was $10.35 million compared to $21.33 million, one year prior.  This represents an effective tax rate of 22.33% compared to 33.31% in the fourth quarter of 2017.
  • The decrease in the effective tax rate from the prior year is due to Tax Reform, signed into law on December 22, 2017.  The reduction from 35% to 21% of the U.S. federal corporate tax rate was among the key changes to U.S. tax law, effective January 1, 2018.  Included in income tax expense in fourth quarter 2017 was $10.11 million related to the revaluation of deferred tax assets due to Tax Reform, and a final adjustment in fourth quarter 2018 to the Tax Reform provision of $0.70 million.

Investment Securities:

  • Total investment securities were $1.19 billion compared to $1.16 billion at September 30, 2018 and $0.96 billion at December 31, 2017.  The weighted average duration of the portfolio at December 31, 2018 was 3.0 years.  The carrying value of the available-for-sale portfolio included $11.91 million of net unrealized losses compared to $26.22 million at September 30, 2018 and $6.43 million in net unrealized losses at December 31, 2017.  The change in net unrealized losses was primarily due to interest rate fluctuations.  The carrying value of the held-to-maturity portfolio does not reflect $0.67 million in net unrealized gains compared to $0.17 million in net unrealized gains at September 30, 2018 and $1.58 million in net unrealized gains at December 31, 2017.

Loans:

  • Total loans held for investment were $8.02 billion at December 31, 2018 compared to $7.88 billion at September 30, 2018 and $5.95 billion at December 31, 2017.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").  The Company's management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in their analysis of the Company's performance.  These measures typically adjust GAAP performance measures to exclude the effects of the amortization of intangibles and include the tax benefit associated with revenue items that are tax-exempt, as well as adjust income available to common shareholders for certain significant activities or transactions that are infrequent in nature.  Since the presentation of these GAAP performance measures and their impact differ between companies, management believes presentations of these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the operating results of the Company’s core businesses.  These non-GAAP disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP disclosures are included as tables at the end of this release.
