  • Announced the planned acquisition of Alliance Financial Corporation, a $1.4 billion financial holding company headquartered in Syracuse, N.Y., expected to close in early 2013.
  • Year to date organic loan growth of 8.3% (annualized) driven by:
  • Commercial loan growth of 12.3% (annualized)
  • Consumer loan growth of 12.0% (annualized)
  • Net interest margin was 3.90% for the third quarter of 2012, up 8 basis points on a linked quarter basis.
  • Annualized net charge-off ratio was 0.47% as compared to 0.55% for the same period last year.

"At NBT we continue to leverage opportunities to invest in our future success through acquisition, including our expansion in New England and our recently announced merger agreement with Alliance Financial Corporation," said NBT President and CEO Martin Dietrich. "Acquiring the Alliance franchise in the greater Syracuse market is an exciting opportunity for strategic expansion that will be a great complement to our existing footprint in central New York. In addition, we remain focused on organic growth and banking fundamentals. We are generating strong organic loan growth and maintaining a quality loan portfolio through the efforts of our customer-oriented team of community bankers. We are pleased with our results through the first three quarters of 2012, particularly in light of the pressures that the economy and regulatory environment continue to place on banks."

Loan and Lease Quality and Provision for Loan and Lease Losses

The Company recorded a provision for loan and lease losses of $13.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared with $15.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Net charge-offs were $13.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, down from $15.1 million for the same period in 2011, due primarily to the charge-off of one large commercial loan during the first quarter of 2011, as well as the general improvement in asset quality indicators in 2012. The annualized net charge-off ratio for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was 0.47%, compared to 0.55% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

The Company recorded a provision for loan and lease losses of $4.8 million during the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared with $5.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011. Net charge-offs were $4.8 million and the annualized net charge-off ratio was 0.45% for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Net charge-offs were $4.3 million and the annualized net charge-off ratio was 0.47% for the three months ended September 30, 2011.

Past due loans as a percentage of total loans was 0.65% at September 30, 2012, up from 0.54% at June 30, 2012, and down from 0.89% at December 31, 2011. Nonperforming loans remained flat at $45.6 million September 30, 2012 compared with June 30, 2012, and up from $41.5 million at December 31, 2011.

The allowance for loan and lease losses totaled $70.7 million at September 30, 2012, compared to $71.3 million at December 31, 2011. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans and leases was 1.66% at September 30, 2012, compared to 1.88% at December 31, 2011. This reduction was due primarily to acquired loans that were recorded at fair value at acquisition. As acquired loans do not have a related allowance recorded, the acquisition resulted in a decrease of 9 basis points in the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans as of September 30, 2012.  The balance of the reduced allowance is due to improvement in asset quality indicators throughout the year, as well as improvement in certain economic indicators.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was up to $151.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared with $149.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The Company's FTE net interest margin was 3.87% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, down from 4.13% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  Average earning assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $5.3 billion, compared to $5.0 billion for the same period of 2011. This increase offset the decline in net interest margin, resulting in a $2.0 million increase in net interest income for nine months ended September 30, 2012.

While the yield on interest bearing liabilities decreased 17 basis points, the yield on interest earning assets declined 40 basis points, resulting in margin compression for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to the same period for 2011.  The yield on securities available for sale was 2.51% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared with 3.06% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. This decrease was due primarily to the reinvestment of cash flows from maturing securities and cash received from branch acquisitions in 2011 and the first quarter of 2012 into lower yielding securities in the current rate environment. The average balance of securities available for sale for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $1.2 billion, up approximately $90.6 million, or 8.2%, from the nine months ended September 30, 2011. This increase was due primarily to reinvestment of maturing held to maturity securities into available for sale securities, and investment of liquidity from branch acquisition activity and deposit growth into available for sale securities. The yield on loans and leases was 5.21% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared with 5.63% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The average balance of loans and leases for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $4.0 billion, up approximately $331.8 million, or 9.1%, from the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  The reduction in yields on earning assets was partially offset by a reduction in rates paid on interest bearing liabilities. The rate on time deposits was 1.50% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared with 1.83% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The rate on money market deposit accounts was 0.20% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared with 0.37% for the nine months ended September 30, 2011.

Net interest income was up to $52.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared with $50.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The Company's FTE net interest margin was 3.90% for the three months ended September 30, 2012, down from 4.14% for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The increase in average earning assets for the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same period of 2011 offset the decline in net interest margin, resulting in the increase in net interest income over the same period last year.

While the yield on interest bearing liabilities decreased 16 basis points, the yield on interest earning assets declined 37 basis points, resulting in margin compression for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to the same period for 2011. The yield on securities available for sale was 2.39% for the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared with 2.95% for the three months ended September 30, 2011. This decrease was due primarily to the reinvestment of cash flows from maturing securities and cash received from branch acquisitions into lower yielding securities in the current rate environment. The average balance of securities available for sale for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $1.2 billion, up approximately $48.2 million, or 4.3%, from the three months ended September 30, 2011. This increase was due primarily to reinvestment of maturing held to maturity securities into available for sale securities, and investment of liquidity from branch acquisition activity and deposit growth into available for sale securities. The yield on loans and leases was 5.12% for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared with 5.51% for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The average balance of loans and leases for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $4.2 billion, up approximately $510.4 million, or 13.8%, from the three months ended September 30, 2011.  The reduction in yields on earning assets was partially offset by a reduction in rates paid on interest bearing liabilities. The rate on time deposits was 1.35% for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared with 1.75% for the three months ended September 30, 2011. The rate on money market deposit accounts was 0.18% for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared with 0.31% for the three months ended September 30, 2011.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $65.4 million, up 8.6% or $5.2 million, compared with $60.2 million for the same period in 2011.  Insurance and other financial services revenue increased approximately $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011.  This increase was due primarily to the acquisition of an insurance agency during the second quarter of 2011 as well as organic growth in commercial product lines.  ATM and debit card fees increased approximately $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011, due primarily to an increase in card usage and customer base. Retirement plan administration fees increased approximately $0.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011, due primarily to an increase in customer base. Other noninterest income increased approximately $4.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to September 30, 2011. This increase was due primarily to a $1.1 million payoff gain on a purchased commercial real estate loan, as well as a prepayment penalty fee collected of $0.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012 related to a previously disclosed loss of a retirement plan client.  In addition, mortgage banking revenue increased approximately $2.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011 as the Company sold certain residential mortgages as market conditions warranted. The Company sold approximately $39.3 million residential mortgages during the first nine months of 2012, as compared to no sales during the first nine months of 2011. The Company also realized net securities gains of approximately $0.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to $0.1 million for the same period in 2011. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in service charges on deposit accounts of approximately $2.5 million, or 15.7%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared with the same period in 2011 primarily due to a decrease in overdraft fee income.

Noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $21.6 million, up 7.1% or $1.4 million, compared with $20.2 million for the same period in 2011. Insurance and other financial services revenue increased approximately $0.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011. This increase was due primarily to organic growth in commercial product lines. Retirement plan administration fees increased approximately $0.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011, due primarily to an increase in customer base. Other noninterest income increased approximately $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2011. This increase was due primarily to an increase in mortgage banking activity during the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared with the three months ended September 30, 2011. The Company sold approximately $9.7 million residential mortgages during the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to no sales during the same period in 2011. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in service charges on deposit accounts of approximately $0.9 million, or 16.4%, for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared with the same period in 2011 primarily due to the aforementioned decrease in overdraft fee income.

Noninterest Expense and Income Tax Expense

Noninterest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $145.3 million, up $12.0 million or 9.0%, for the same period in 2011. Salaries and employee benefits increased $4.3 million, or 5.7%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared with the same period in 2011. This increase was due primarily to increases in full-time-equivalent employees from acquisitions, merit increases, and increased pension expenses.  Professional fees and outside services increased $1.5 million, or 23.2%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011. Data processing and communications expenses increased approximately $1.0 million, or 10.5%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011, due primarily to expansion into new markets.  Merger related expenses totaled $1.9 million in the first nine months of 2012, as compared to $0.2 million for the same period in 2011. Other operating expenses increased $2.0 million in the first nine months of 2012 as compared with the same period in 2011. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") expenses of approximately $0.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2011. This decrease was due to the FDIC redefining the deposit insurance assessment base effective the second quarter of 2011. Income tax expense for the nine month period ended September 30, 2012 was $17.0 million, down from $17.4 million for the same period in 2011. The effective tax rate was 29.1% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to 28.2% for the same period in 2011.

Noninterest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2012 was $49.4 million, up $4.4 million or 9.7%, for the same period in 2011.  Salaries and employee benefits increased $1.6 million, or 6.3%, for the three months ended September 30, 2012, compared with the same period in 2011. This increase was due primarily to increases in full-time-equivalent employees from acquisitions, merit increases, and increased pension expenses. Occupancy expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2012 increased $0.6 million, or 14.1%, over the same period in 2011 primarily due to aforementioned expansion. Professional fees and outside services increased approximately $0.5 million, or 23.5%, for the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011, due primarily to a nonrecurring consulting fee incurred during the period.  Merger related expenses totaled $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared with $0.2 for the same period in 2011, which also contributed to the increase in noninterest expense for the period. Other operating expenses increased $0.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012 as compared to the same period in 2011. Income tax expense for the three month period ended September 30, 2012 was $5.5 million, up from $5.1 million for the same period in 2011.
