ISELIN, N.J., Oct. 25, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Provident Financial Services, Inc. (NYSE:PFS) (the "Company") reported net income of $16.1 million, or $0.28 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to net income of $16.2 million, or $0.28 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended September 30, 2012. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company reported net income of $53.1 million, or $0.93 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $50.6 million, or $0.89 per basic share and $0.88 per diluted share for the same period last year.
Earnings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 were adversely impacted by the write-off of a deferred tax asset related to non-qualified stock options issued shortly after the Company's 2003 initial public offering. Those options expired unused in July 2013 and the related $3.9 million deferred tax asset was written-off via a $3.2 million charge to income tax expense and a $735,000 charge to equity. Excluding this write-off, core earnings (a non-GAAP financial measure)1 for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 were $19.3 million, or $0.34 per basic and diluted share and $56.3 million, or $0.98 per basic and diluted share, respectively. Conversely, earnings for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 were aided by a continued improvement in asset quality and a related reduction in the provision for loan losses compared with the same periods last year. Year-over-year growth in both average loans outstanding and average non-interest bearing demand deposits has mitigated compression in the net interest margin and the related adverse impact on net interest income.
Christopher Martin, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our core earnings of $0.34 per share were the culmination of strong loan originations during the quarter, complemented by continued growth in non-interest bearing deposits and a stabilizing net interest margin." Martin noted: "Our team has been successful at improving asset quality, achieving a 23% decrease in non-performing loans from September of last year, without resorting to deeply discounted bulk sales. Further, our operating discipline during the quarter produced an efficiency ratio of 55.5%. In light of our performance, I'm pleased to report that our Board of Directors has increased our quarterly dividend by over 7 percent."
Declaration of Quarterly Dividend
The Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per common share payable on November 29, 2013, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on November 15, 2013. The dividend is an increase of 7.1% from the prior quarter's regular cash dividend of $0.14 per share.
Balance Sheet Summary
Total assets increased $57.3 million to $7.34 billion at September 30, 2013, from $7.28 billion at December 31, 2012, primarily due to an increase in total loans, partially offset by a decrease in total investments.
The Company's loan portfolio increased $178.4 million, or 3.6%, to $5.08 billion at September 30, 2013, from $4.90 billion at December 31, 2012. Loan originations totaled $1.3 billion and loan purchases totaled $22.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The loan portfolio had net increases of $136.0 million in multi-family mortgage loans, $70.4 million in construction loans, predominately multi-family apartment projects, $25.4 million in commercial mortgage loans, and $25.1 million in commercial loans, which were partially offset by net decreases of $72.3 million and $4.5 million in residential mortgage and consumer loans, respectively. Loan growth was tempered somewhat by the repayment of $17.3 million on two shared national credits during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Commercial real estate, commercial and construction loans represented 65.2% of the loan portfolio at September 30, 2013, compared to 62.4% at December 31, 2012.
At September 30, 2013, the Company's unfunded loan commitments totaled $1.02 billion, including $389.8 million in commercial loan commitments, $264.8 million in construction loan commitments and $92.7 million in commercial mortgage commitments. Unfunded loan commitments at June 30, 2013 were $1.00 billion.
Total investments decreased $106.6 million, or 6.4%, to $1.55 billion at September 30, 2013, from $1.66 billion at December 31, 2012, largely due to principal repayments on mortgage-backed securities, maturities of municipal and agency bonds, and sales of certain mortgage-backed securities which had a heightened risk of prepayment, partially offset by purchases of mortgage-backed and municipal securities.
Total deposits decreased $172.6 million, or 3.2%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 to $5.26 billion. Core deposits, which consist of savings and demand deposit accounts, decreased $61.0 million, or 1.4%, to $4.41 billion at September 30, 2013. Much of the core deposit decrease was in government money market deposits, largely related to the cyclical outflow of municipal deposits. It also included certain expected outflows resulting from customer tax planning considerations earlier in the year. Time deposits decreased $111.6 million, or 11.7%, to $845.9 million at September 30, 2013, with the majority of the decrease occurring in the 9-, 12- and 60-month maturity categories. Core deposits represented 83.9% of total deposits at September 30, 2013, compared to 82.4% at December 31, 2012.
Borrowed funds increased $213.2 million, or 26.5% during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, to $1.02 billion, as longer-term wholesale funding was added to mitigate interest rate risk, and shorter-term wholesale funding was used to manage the cyclical outflow of municipal deposits. Borrowed funds represented 13.8% of total assets at September 30, 2013, an increase from 11.0% at December 31, 2012.
Stockholders' equity increased $15.4 million, or 1.6% during the nine months ended September 30, 2013, to $996.7 million, due to net income earned for the period, partially offset by dividends paid to stockholders, common stock repurchases and a decline in unrealized gains on securities available for sale. Common stock repurchases for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 totaled 397,483 shares at an average cost of $14.80 per share. At September 30, 2013, 3.7 million shares remained eligible for repurchase under the current authorization. At September 30, 2013, book value per share and tangible book value per share were $16.64 and $10.69, respectively, compared with $16.37 and $10.40, respectively, at December 31, 2012.
Results of Operations
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
For the three months ended September 30, 2013, net interest income increased $282,000, to $54.0 million, from $53.7 million for the same period in 2012. Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, decreased $1.8 million, to $161.3 million, from $163.1 million for the same period in 2012. Both comparative periods were impacted by compression in the net interest margin, which was mitigated by an increase in average loans outstanding, partially funded by growth in non-interest bearing demand deposits.
The Company's net interest margin decreased 1 basis point to 3.28% for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, from 3.29% for the trailing quarter ended June 30, 2013. Compared with the trailing quarter, funding costs remained stable and lower loan yields were offset by an increase in securities yields. The weighted average yield on interest-earning assets declined 1 basis point to 3.83% for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared with 3.84% for the quarter ended June 30, 2013. The weighted average cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 was unchanged versus the trailing quarter at 0.67%. The average cost of interest bearing deposits for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 was 0.39%, compared with 0.41% for the trailing quarter. The average cost of borrowed funds for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 was 2.00%, compared with 2.03% for the quarter ended June 30, 2013.
The net interest margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 decreased 3 basis points to 3.28%, compared with 3.31% for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. The decrease in the net interest margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared with the same period last year, was primarily attributable to reductions in the weighted average yield on interest-earning assets, which declined 16 basis points to 3.83% for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared with 3.99% for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. This outpaced a reduction in the weighted average cost of interest bearing liabilities, which declined 15 basis points to 0.67% for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared with 0.82% for the third quarter of 2012. The average cost of interest bearing deposits for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 was 0.39%, compared with 0.54% for the same period last year. Average non-interest bearing demand deposits totaled $844.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared with $771.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2012. The average cost of borrowed funds for the quarter ended September 30, 2013 was 2.00%, compared with 2.32% for the same period last year.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the net interest margin decreased 8 basis points to 3.30%, compared with 3.38% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The weighted average yield on interest earning assets declined 24 basis points to 3.86% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared with 4.10% for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, while the weighted average cost of interest bearing liabilities declined 18 basis points to 0.68% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared with 0.86% for the same period in 2012. The average cost of interest bearing deposits for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was 0.41%, compared with 0.58% for the same period last year. Average non-interest bearing demand deposits totaled $823.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared with $710.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. The average cost of borrowings for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was 2.08%, compared with 2.26% for the same period last year.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income totaled $11.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, an increase of $1.9 million, or 19.8%, compared to the same period in 2012. For the quarter ended September 30, 2013, fee income increased $2.3 million to $9.8 million, from $7.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012, due to increases in commercial loan prepayment fee income, wealth management income and deposit fees. This was partially offset by a $258,000 decrease in net gains on securities transactions for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, non-interest income totaled $34.3 million, an increase of $2.5 million, or 7.7%, compared to the same period in 2012. Fee income increased $3.1 million, to $26.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared with the same period in 2012, largely due to increases in prepayment fees on commercial loans and wealth management income. BOLI income increased $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to the same period in the prior year, principally due to the recognition of a policy claim. These increases were partially offset by a $1.5 million decrease in net gains on securities transactions for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to the same period in 2012. In addition, other income decreased $553,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared with the same period in 2012, primarily due to a decrease in gains on loan sales.
Non-Interest Expense
For the three months ended September 30, 2013, non-interest expense decreased $432,000, to $36.5 million, compared to the three months ended September 30, 2012. Other operating expenses decreased $847,000, largely as a result of reduced non-performing asset related expenses. In addition, advertising expense decreased $318,000, to $718,000. FDIC insurance costs declined $204,000 as a result of a lower assessment rate, and the amortization of intangibles decreased $193,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2013, compared with the same period in 2012, as a result of scheduled reductions in core deposit intangible amortization. Partially offsetting these reductions, compensation and benefits expense increased $1.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2012, due to an increases in salaries and related payroll taxes, increased severance expense, and an increase in incentive compensation accruals.
The Company's annualized non-interest expense as a percentage of average assets was 2.00% for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared with 2.04% for the same period in 2012. The efficiency ratio (non-interest expense divided by the sum of net interest income and non-interest income) was 55.48% for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, compared with 58.10% for the same period in 2012.
Non-interest expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $111.2 million, a decrease of $220,000 from the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Other operating expenses decreased $1.1 million, largely as a result of reduced non-performing asset related expenses. In addition, the amortization of intangibles decreased $623,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared with the same period in 2012, as a result of scheduled reductions in core deposit intangible amortization. FDIC insurance costs declined $350,000 as a result of a lower assessment rate, and advertising expense decreased $108,000 to $2.7 million. Partially offsetting these reductions, compensation and benefits expense increased $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, compared to the same period last year, due to increases in salaries and related payroll taxes, increased severance expense, and an increase in incentive compensation accruals.
Asset Quality
The Company's total non-performing loans at September 30, 2013 were $81.6 million, or 1.60% of total loans, compared with $88.8 million, or 1.78% of total loans at June 30, 2013, and $105.7 million, or 2.19% of total loans at September 30, 2012. The $7.3 million decrease in non-performing loans at September 30, 2013, compared with the trailing quarter, was due to a $3.6 million decrease in non-performing commercial loans, a $1.9 million decrease in non-performing residential loans, a $1.2 million decrease in non-performing commercial mortgage loans, a $416,000 decrease in non-performing consumer loans and a $113,000 decrease in non-performing construction loans. At September 30, 2013, impaired loans totaled $113.0 million with related specific reserves of $10.7 million, compared with impaired loans totaling $115.8 million with related specific reserves of $6.8 million at June 30, 2013. At September 30, 2012, impaired loans totaled $114.4 million with related specific reserves of $8.4 million.
At September 30, 2013, the Company's allowance for loan losses was 1.30% of total loans, a decrease from 1.34% at June 30, 2013, and a decrease from 1.46% of total loans at September 30, 2012. The Company recorded provisions for loan losses of $1.2 million and $3.7 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, compared with provisions of $3.5 million and $12.0 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company had net charge-offs of $2.2 million and $8.0 million, respectively, compared with net charge-offs of $5.6 million and $16.1 million, respectively, for the same periods in 2012. The allowance for loan losses decreased $4.3 million to $66.0 million at September 30, 2013, from $70.3 million at December 31, 2012 as the weighted average risk rating of the loan portfolio improved, early stage delinquencies declined, certain non-performing asset resolutions were completed, the allowance coverage of remaining non-performing loans increased, and the reduced pace of new non-performing asset formation resulted in accelerated net outflows.
At September 30, 2013, the Company held $7.3 million of foreclosed assets, compared with $12.5 million at December 31, 2012. Foreclosed assets at September 30, 2013 consisted of $5.2 million of residential real estate, $2.0 million of commercial real estate and $65,000 of marine vessels. Total non-performing assets at September 30, 2013 declined $22.6 million, or 20.3%, to $88.9 million, or 1.21% of total assets, from $111.5 million, or 1.53% of total assets at December 31, 2012.
Income Tax Expense
For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company's income tax expense was $12.0 million and $27.6 million, respectively, compared with $7.0 million and $21.0 million, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively. The increase in income tax expense was primarily attributable to the $3.2 million charge associated with the write-off of a deferred tax asset related to expired non-qualified stock options and growth in pre-tax income from taxable sources. The Company's effective tax rate was 42.7% and 34.2% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively, compared with 30.1% and 29.3% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012, respectively.
