pleased to present our current quarter results, which reflects an
inflection point in net interest income and margin, loan and
deposit growth, and continued strong asset quality. The quarter
includes the impact of our acquisition of a specialty finance
company, which has complemented our existing product offerings.”
Mr. Maher added, “As we turn to 2025, the Company remains focused
on high quality growth while maintaining our expense and credit
discipline.”

¹ Core earnings and core earnings before
income taxes and provision for credit losses (“PTPP or
Pre-Tax-Pre-Provision”), and ratios derived therefrom, are non-GAAP
financial measures. For the periods presented, core earnings
exclude merger related expenses, net branch consolidation expense,
net (gain) loss on equity investments, net loss on sale of
investments, net gain on sale of trust business, the opening
provision for credit losses in connection with the acquisition of
Spring Garden Capital Group, LLC (“Spring Garden”), the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) special assessment, and the
income tax effect of these items, (collectively referred to as
“non-core” operations). PTPP excludes the aforementioned pre-tax
“non-core” items along with income tax expense (benefit) and
provision for credit losses (exclusive of the Spring Garden
provision). Refer to “Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures”
and the “Non-GAAP Reconciliation” tables for additional information
regarding non-GAAP financial measures.
Results of OperationsThe
current quarter was favorably impacted by a continued mix-shift and
repricing of funding costs, partly offset by a decrease in yields
on interest-earning assets due to lower market interest rates. The
current quarter results also include the acquisition of Spring
Garden Capital Group, LLC (“Spring Garden”)2, which the Company
recognized a $1.4 million initial provision for credit losses
through earnings. Additionally, the current quarter includes
$768,000 of non-recurring death benefits on bank owned life
insurance and income tax expense was positively impacted by
utilization of tax credits.
² The acquisition of Spring Garden was
effective October 1, 2024.
Net Interest Income and
MarginQuarter ended December 31, 2024 vs. December 31,
2023
Net interest income decreased to $83.3 million,
from $87.8 million, primarily reflecting the net impact of the rate
environment. Net interest margin decreased to 2.69%, from 2.82%,
which included the impact of purchase accounting accretion and
prepayment fees of 0.05% in the prior period. Net interest margin
decreased primarily due to the increase in cost of funds outpacing
the yield on average interest earning assets.
Average interest-earning assets decreased by
$17.7 million, due to a decrease in interest-earning cash deposits
and net loans, largely offset by an increase in securities. The
average yield for interest-earning assets remained relatively
stable at 5.15%, from 5.16%.
The cost of average interest-bearing liabilities
increased to 3.04%, from 2.91%, primarily due to higher cost of
deposits, partially offset by lower cost of total borrowings. The
total cost of deposits increased 10 basis points to 2.32%, from
2.22%. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $76.4
million, primarily due to an increase in total borrowings, partly
offset by a decrease in total deposits.
Year ended December 31, 2024 vs. December 31,
2023
Net interest income decreased to $334.0 million,
from $369.7 million, reflecting the net impact of the interest rate
environment. Net interest margin decreased to 2.72%, from 3.02%,
which included the impact of purchase accounting accretion and
prepayment fees of 0.02% and 0.05% for the respective periods.
Average interest-earning assets increased by
$29.8 million, primarily driven by redeployment of cash into
securities, which grew by $179.0 million. The average yield
increased to 5.23%, from 4.96%.
The total cost of average interest-bearing
liabilities increased to 3.10%, from 2.45% primarily due to higher
cost of deposits. The total cost of deposits increased to 2.36%,
from 1.68%. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by
$212.2 million, primarily due to an increase in total deposits.
Quarter ended December 31, 2024 vs. September
30, 2024
Net interest income increased by $1.1 million
and net interest margin increased to 2.69%, from 2.67%, which
included the impact of purchase accounting accretion of 0.02% in
the prior linked quarter.
Average interest-earning assets increased by
$98.8 million, primarily due to increases in residential loans and
securities. The yield on average interest-earning assets decreased
to 5.15%, from 5.26% due to the lower market interest rate
environment.
The total cost of average interest-bearing
liabilities decreased to 3.04%, from 3.20%, primarily due to lower
cost of deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) advances. The
total cost of deposits decreased to 2.32%, from 2.44%. Average
interest-bearing liabilities increased $112.8 million, primarily
due to an increase in deposits and FHLB advances, partly offset by
a decrease in other borrowings.
Provision for Credit Losses
Provision for credit losses for the quarter and
year ended December 31, 2024, which included a $1.4 million initial
provision for credit losses related to the acquisition of Spring
Garden and the total provision for credit losses, was $3.5 million
and $7.7 million, respectively, as compared to $3.2 million and
$17.7 million for the corresponding prior year periods, and
$517,000 in the prior linked quarter. The reserve build in the
quarter was driven by the net change in downside macro-economic
forecasts utilized in the estimate, partly offset by a decrease of
$31.0 million, or 16%, in criticized and classified assets.
Net loan recoveries were $158,000 and net loan
charge-offs were $1.6 million for the quarter and year ended
December 31, 2024, respectively, as compared to net loan
charge-offs of $35,000 and $8.4 million for the quarter and year
ended December 31, 2023. Net loan recoveries were $88,000 in the
prior linked quarter. The current and prior year included partial
charge-offs of $1.6 million and $8.4 million, respectively, for a
single commercial real estate relationship. Refer to “Asset
Quality” section for further discussion.
Non-interest IncomeQuarter
ended December 31, 2024 vs. December 31, 2023
Other income increased to $12.2 million, as
compared to $11.9 million. Other income was favorably impacted by
non-core operations of $2.2 million in the prior year, related to
net gains on equity investments.
Excluding non-core operations, other income
increased $2.6 million. The primary drivers were increases in
income from bank owned life insurance of $1.1 million, related to
non-recurring death benefits of $768,000 in the current year, fees
and service charges of $892,000, primarily related to increased
title fees, and net gain on sale of loans of $767,000.
Year ended December 31, 2024 vs. December 31,
2023
Other income increased to $50.2 million, as
compared to $33.6 million. The current period was favorably
impacted by non-core operations related to net gains on equity
investments of $4.2 million and a $2.6 million gain on sale of a
portion of the Company’s trust business. The prior year was
adversely impacted by non-core operations of $4.4 million,
primarily related to losses on sale of investments.
Excluding non-core operations, other income
increased $5.3 million. The primary drivers were increases in the
cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance of $2.6 million,
which included one-time death benefits of $1.3 million, net
gain on sale of loans of $1.9 million, and a non-recurring gain on
sale of assets held for sale of $855,000. This was partially offset
by a decrease in trust and asset management revenue of $784,000,
related to the sale of a portion of the Company’s trust
business.
Quarter ended December 31, 2024 vs. September
30, 2024
Other income in the prior quarter was $14.7
million, which included non-core operations of $1.4 million related
to net gains on equity investments and $1.4 million related to gain
on sale of a portion of the Company’s trust business. Excluding
non-core operations, other income increased by $411,000. The
primary drivers were increases in income from bank owned life
insurance of $759,000 and net gain on sale of loans of $571,000,
partly offset by a decrease in gain on sale of assets held for sale
of $855,000, related to activity in the prior quarter.
Non-interest ExpenseQuarter
ended December 31, 2024 vs. December 31, 2023
Operating expenses increased to $64.8 million,
as compared to $60.2 million. Operating expenses were adversely
impacted by non-core items of $110,000 from the merger related
expenses in the current year and $1.7 million from an FDIC special
assessment in the prior year.
Excluding non-core operations, operating
expenses increased by $6.2 million. The primary drivers were
increases in compensation and benefits of $4.5 million, primarily
due to the acquisitions during the year, and other operating
expenses of $1.8 million, which was partly due to additional loan
servicing expenses.
Year ended December 31, 2024 vs. December 31,
2023
Operating expenses decreased to $245.9 million,
as compared to $248.9 million. Operating expenses in the current
year were adversely impacted by $2.2 million of non-core operations
of merger related expenses and FDIC special assessments, and in the
prior year by $1.8 million for FDIC special assessments, merger
related and net branch consolidation expenses.
Excluding non-core operations, operating
expenses decreased by $3.5 million. This was due to a decrease in
professional fees of $8.8 million as the Company realized benefits
from the performance improvement initiatives and investments made
in the prior year. This was partially offset by increases in other
operating expense of $3.0 million, which was partly due to
additional loan servicing expenses, and compensation and benefits
of $2.5 million, primarily due to the acquisitions during the
year.
Quarter ended December 31, 2024 vs. September
30, 2024
Operating expenses in the prior linked quarter
were $63.7 million and were adversely impacted by non-core
operations of $1.7 million related to merger related expenses.
Excluding non-core operations, operating expenses increased by $2.7
million. The primary drivers were increases in compensation and
benefits expense of $758,000 and data processing of $426,000,
primarily related to acquisitions during the year. Additionally,
there were increases in professional fees of $650,000 and other
operating expense of $532,000, which was partly related to title
costs.
Income Tax Expense
The provision for income taxes was $5.1 million
and $30.3 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2024,
respectively, as compared to $8.6 million and $32.7 million, for
the same prior year periods, and $7.5 million for the prior linked
quarter. The effective tax rate was 18.7% and 23.2% for the quarter
and year ended December 31, 2024, respectively, as compared to
23.6% and 23.9% for the same prior year periods, and 22.9% for the
prior linked quarter. The Company’s current quarter effective tax
rate was positively impacted by utilization of higher tax credits
as compared to the same prior year period and the year ended
December 31, 2024 was adversely impacted by the non-recurring
write-off of a deferred tax asset of $1.2 million net of other
state effects and credits.
Financial ConditionDecember 31,
2024 vs. December 31, 2023
Total assets decreased by $117.0 million to
$13.42 billion, from $13.54 billion, primarily due to decreases in
loans and securities. Total loans decreased by $76.5 million to
$10.12 billion, from $10.19 billion, primarily due to a decrease in
the total commercial portfolio of $126.6 million driven by loan
payoffs, partly offset by an increase in residential loans of $70.2
million. The loan pipeline increased by $123.6 million to $306.7
million, from $183.0 million. Debt securities held-to-maturity
decreased by $113.9 million to $1.05 billion, from $1.16 billion,
primarily due to principal repayments. Debt securities
available-for-sale increased by $73.6 million to $827.5 million,
from $753.9 million, primarily due to new purchases. Goodwill
increased by $17.2 million to $523.3 million, from $506.1 million
due to the acquisition of Spring Garden.
Total liabilities decreased by $157.8 million to
$11.72 billion, from $11.88 billion primarily related to lower
deposits and a funding mix shift. Deposits decreased by $368.6
million to $10.07 billion, from $10.43 billion, primarily due to
decreases in time deposits of $364.5 million and high-yield savings
accounts of $332.4 million, offset by increases in money market
accounts of $279.4 million. Time deposits decreased by $364.5
million to $2.08 billion, from $2.45 billion, representing 20.7%
and 23.4% of total deposits, respectively, which was primarily
related to planned runoff of brokered time deposits, which
decreased by $556.8 million, offset by increases in retail
time deposits of $203.5 million. The loans-to-deposit ratio
was 100.5%, as compared to 97.7%. FHLB advances increased by $224.0
million to $1.07 billion, from $848.6 million as a result of
lower-cost funding availability.
Capital levels remain strong and in excess of
“well-capitalized” regulatory levels at December 31, 2024,
including the Company’s estimated common equity tier one capital
ratio, which increased to 11.2%, up approximately 30 basis points
from December 31, 2023.
Total stockholders’ equity increased to $1.70
billion, as compared to $1.66 billion, primarily reflecting net
income, partially offset by capital returns comprising of dividends
and share repurchases. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the
Company repurchased 1,383,238 shares totaling $21.5 million at a
weighted average cost of $15.38. The Company had 1,551,200 shares
available for repurchase under the authorized repurchase program at
December 31, 2024. Additionally, accumulated other comprehensive
loss decreased by $5.0 million primarily due to increases in fair
market value of available-for-sale debt securities, net of tax.
The Company’s tangible common equity3 increased
by $20.5 million to $1.11 billion. The Company’s stockholders’
equity to assets ratio was 12.69% at December 31, 2024, and
tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio increased by 24
basis points during the quarter to 8.62%, primarily due to the
drivers described above.
Book value per common share increased to $29.08,
as compared to $27.96. Tangible book value per common share3
increased to $18.98, as compared to $18.35.
³ Tangible book value per common share and
tangible common equity to tangible assets are non-GAAP financial
measures and exclude the impact of intangible assets, goodwill, and
preferred equity from both stockholders’ equity and total assets.
Refer to “Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and the
“Non-GAAP Reconciliation” tables for additional information
regarding non-GAAP financial measures.
Asset QualityDecember 31, 2024 vs.
December 31, 2023
The Company’s non-performing loans increased to
$35.5 million from $29.5 million, primarily due to acquired
purchase credit deteriorated (“PCD”) loans from Spring Garden, and
represented 0.35% and 0.29% of total loans, respectively. The
allowance for loan credit losses as a percentage of total
non-performing loans was 207.19%, as compared to 227.21%. The level
of 30 to 89 days delinquent loans increased to $36.6 million, from
$19.2 million. Criticized and classified assets increased by $12.9
million to $159.9 million from $146.9 million. The Company’s
allowance for loan credit losses was 0.73% of total loans as
compared to 0.66%. Refer to “Provision for Credit Losses” section
for further discussion.
The Company’s asset quality, excluding PCD
loans, was as follows. Non-performing loans increased to $27.6
million, from $26.4 million. The allowance for loan credit losses
as a percentage of total non-performing loans was 266.73%, as
compared to 254.64%. The level of 30 to 89 days delinquent loans,
also excluding non-performing loans, increased to $33.6 million,
from $17.7 million.
Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial
Measures
Reported amounts are presented in accordance
with GAAP. The Company’s management believes that the supplemental
non-GAAP information, which consists of reported net income
excluding non-core operations and in some instances excluding
income taxes and provision for credit losses, and reporting equity
and asset amounts excluding intangible assets, goodwill or
preferred stock, all of which can vary from period to period,
provides a better comparison of period-to-period operating
performance. Additionally, the Company believes this information is
utilized by regulators and market analysts to evaluate a company’s
financial condition and, therefore, such information is useful to
investors. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute
for financial results in accordance with GAAP, nor are they
necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures, which may
be presented by other companies. Refer to the Non-GAAP
Reconciliation table at the end of this document for details on the
earnings impact of these items.
