Eagle Bancorp, Inc. Announces Record Quarterly Earnings, With Annual Net Income Up 33%, and Loan Growth of 18%


BETHESDA, Md., Jan. 22, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eagle Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") (Nasdaq:EGBN), the parent company of EagleBank, today announced record quarterly net income of $12.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2013, an 18% increase over the $10.2 million net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2012. Net income available to common shareholders for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 increased 18% to $11.9 million ($0.46 per basic common share and $0.45 per diluted common share), as compared to $10.1 million ($0.40 per basic common share and $0.39 per diluted common share) for the same period in 2012.

For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Company's net income was $47.0 million, a 33% increase over the $35.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2012. Net income available to common shareholders was $46.4 million ($1.81 per basic common share and $1.76 per diluted common share), as compared to $34.7 million ($1.50 per basic common share and $1.46 per diluted common share) for the year ended December 31, 2012, a 34% increase. Per share amounts for all prior periods have been adjusted to reflect the 10% stock dividend distributed on June 14, 2013.

"We are extremely pleased to report another quarter of record earnings and continued strong and balanced financial performance" noted Ronald D. Paul, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Eagle Bancorp, Inc. "The Company's earnings have now increased in each quarter since the fourth quarter of 2008." Mr. Paul added "for the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company's performance was highlighted by growth in total loans and total deposits, an expanded net interest margin from an already favorable level, very strong asset quality trends in all respects and a continuation of the Company's strong cost management. The strong quarterly earnings added to an already solid capital base."

For the fourth quarter of 2013, total loans grew 5.3% and were 18.1% higher at December 31, 2013 than December 31, 2012. For the fourth quarter of 2013, total deposits grew 8.1% and were 11.3% higher at December 31, 2013 than December 31, 2012. The net interest margin was 4.40% for the fourth quarter, 9 basis points higher than both the third quarter of 2013 and the fourth quarter of 2012. Mr. Paul added, "The continuing emphasis on disciplined pricing for both new loans and funding sources has resulted in a more favorable net interest margin position at December 31, 2013."

The Company was able to grow its net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2013 at a substantial rate of 5% as compared to the third quarter in 2013 ($38.7 million versus $36.7 million) and effectively absorbed lower total noninterest earnings attributable primarily to lower levels of residential mortgage originations and sales.

Total revenue (net interest income plus noninterest income) for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $43.0 million or 3% above the third quarter 2013 amount ($41.9 million) and was 5% above the $40.8 million of total revenue earned for the fourth quarter of 2012. For the full year 2013, total revenue was $169.5 million as compared to $148.9 million in 2012, a 14% increase.

For the fourth quarter of 2013, revenue from residential mortgage banking net interest income and fees was 2.4% of total revenue versus 9.4% of total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2012. For the year of 2013, the Company produced 7.2% of total revenue from its residential mortgage division net interest income and fees, as compared to 8.8% of total revenue for the same period in 2012. The Company assesses its residential mortgage loan area on an ongoing basis in light of changes in market conditions, and adjusts the scope of the division accordingly. The Company continues to focus its activities on generating spread income, while also looking to residential mortgage banking as a component of the Company's ongoing growth.

Mr. Paul emphasized "that all asset quality measures showed improvement at year end 2013, as compared to both September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012. The combination of lower levels of nonperforming loans and OREO, lower net charge-offs and consistent loan loss provisioning resulted in the allowance for loan losses ending December 31, 2013 at 1.39% of total loans and 166% of nonperforming loans."

Lastly, Mr. Paul noted that for the fourth quarter of 2013, the Company's operating cost management remained strong. The efficiency ratio was 50%, which reflects management's determined, continuous efforts to control costs while not inhibiting growth or our ability to service our customers. Mr. Paul further noted the favorable level of noninterest expenses to average assets of 2.39%. "We will continue to have strict oversight of costs, while maintaining an infrastructure that maximizes our ability to not just remain competitive, but to grow."

At December 31, 2013, total assets were $3.77 billion, compared to $3.41 billion at December 31, 2012, an 11% increase. As compared to September 30, 2013, total assets at December 31, 2013 increased by $266.6 million, or 8%. Total loans (excluding loans held for sale) were $2.95 billion at December 31, 2013 compared to $2.49 billion at December 31, 2012, an 18% increase. As compared to September 30, 2013, total loans at December 31, 2013 increased by $148.3 million, a 5% increase. Total deposits were $3.23 billion at December 31, 2013, compared to deposits of $2.90 billion at December 31, 2012, an 11% increase. As compared to September 30, 2013, total deposits at December 31, 2013 increased by $241.3 million, an 8% increase. The level of deposit gains in 2013 was impacted by a loss of $130.0 million of trustee deposits in March 2013 (earlier reported) related to the expiration of the TAG program. Loans held for sale amounted to $42.0 million at December 31, 2013 as compared to $226.9 million at December 31, 2012, an 82% decrease. As compared to September 30, 2013 loans held for sale increased by $3.0 million, a 7% increase.

The investment portfolio totaled $378.1 million at December 31, 2013, a 26% increase from the $299.8 million balance at December 31, 2012. As compared to September 30, 2013, the investment portfolio at December 31, 2013 increased by $22.3 million, a 6% increase. Total borrowed funds (excluding customer repurchase agreements) were $39.3 million at December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2013, respectively. Total shareholders' equity increased to $393.9 million at December 31, 2013, compared to $350.0 million and $382.1 million at December 31, 2012 and September 30, 2013, respectively, reflecting growth in retained earnings. The Company's capital position remains substantially in excess of regulatory requirements for well capitalized status, with a total risk based capital ratio of 13.02% at December 31, 2013, as compared to a total risk based capital ratio of 12.20% at December 31, 2012. In addition, the tangible common equity ratio (tangible common equity to tangible assets) increased to 8.86% at December 31, 2013, from 8.50% at December 31, 2012.

At December 31, 2013, the Company's nonperforming assets amounted to $33.9 million, representing 0.90% of total assets, compared to $38.8 million of nonperforming assets, or 1.11% of total assets at September 30, 2013 and $36.0 million of nonperforming assets, or 1.06% of total assets at December 31, 2012. Management continues to remain attentive to early signs of deterioration in borrowers' financial conditions and is proactive in taking the appropriate steps to mitigate risk. Furthermore, the Company is diligent in placing loans on nonaccrual status and believes, based on its loan portfolio risk analysis, that its allowance for loan losses, at 1.39% of total loans (excluding loans held for sale) at December 31, 2013, is adequate to absorb potential credit losses within the loan portfolio at that date. The allowance for credit losses represented 166% of nonperforming loans at December 31, 2013, as compared to 144% at September 30, 2013 and 122% at December 31, 2012. The decrease in the allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans at December 31, 2013, as compared to September 30, 2013, from 1.42% to 1.39%, is due to increased loan growth, and overall improved credit quality in the loan portfolio at December 31, 2013.

Analysis of the three months ended December 31, 2013 compared to December 31, 2012

For the three months ended December 31, 2013, the Company reported an annualized return on average assets ("ROAA") of 1.33% as compared to 1.25% for the three months ended December 31, 2012. The annualized return on average common equity ("ROAE") for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 was 14.07%, as compared to 13.95% for the quarter ended December 31, 2012. The higher ROAA and ROAE ratios for fourth quarter of 2013 as compared to 2012 was due primarily to a combination of higher net interest margin, improved credit quality resulting in lower provision expense, and strong cost management.

Net interest income increased 11.4% for the three months ended December 31, 2013 over the same period in 2012, resulting from both growth in average earning assets of 8.8% and an expanded net interest margin for the three months ended December 31, 2013. The net interest margin was 4.40% as compared to 4.31% for the three months ended December 31, 2012. The Company believes its net interest margin remains favorable compared to peer banking companies and that its disciplined approach to managing its loan portfolio yield to 5.40% for the fourth quarter of 2013 has been a significant factor in its overall profitability.

The efficiency ratio, which measures the ratio of noninterest expense to total revenue, remained favorable at 50.03% for the fourth quarter of 2013, as compared to 49.82% for the fourth quarter of 2012. As a percentage of average assets, total noninterest expense improved to 2.39% for the fourth quarter of 2013 as compared to 2.49% for the same period in 2012. Noninterest expenses totaled $21.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013, as compared to $20.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012, a 6% increase. Cost increases for salaries and benefits were $595 thousand, due to staffing increases primarily as a result of growth since December 31, 2012 in commercial lending and branch personnel and merit and benefit cost increases. Premises and equipment expenses were $297 thousand higher, due to the cost of a new branch office and increases in leasing costs. Data processing expenses increased by $305 thousand due to system enhancements and increased customer transaction volume.

The provision for credit losses was $2.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2013 as compared to $4.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012. Net charge-offs of $1.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2013 represented 0.18% of average loans, excluding loans held for sale, as compared to $2.2 million or 0.37% of average loans, excluding loans held for sale, in the fourth quarter of 2012, a 43% dollar decline. Net charge-offs in the fourth quarter of 2013 were attributable primarily to commercial and industrial loans ($831 thousand), and commercial real estate loans ($375 thousand). The lower provisioning in the fourth quarter of 2013, as compared to the fourth quarter of 2012, is due to a combination of lower net charge-offs, and overall improved asset quality in the loan portfolio.

Noninterest income for the three months ended December 31, 2013 decreased to $4.3 million from $6.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2012, a 29% decrease. This decrease was primarily due to lower gains on the sale of residential mortgage loans of $3.0 million, offset by a combination of an increase in service charges income of $221 thousand, higher income from Bank Owned Life Insurance of $202 thousand, higher loan fees and insurance income of $405 thousand, and higher income from sales of SBA loans of $148 thousand. There were $4 thousand of investment securities losses recorded for the fourth quarter of 2013, as compared to investment securities losses of $75 thousand for the fourth quarter of 2012. Excluding investment securities losses, total noninterest income was $4.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2013, as compared to $6.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2012, a decrease of 30%.

Analysis of the twelve months ended December 31, 2013 compared to December 31, 2012

For the twelve months ended December 31, 2013, the Company reported an ROAA of 1.37% as compared to 1.18% for the twelve months of 2012, while the ROAE was 14.60% in 2013, as compared to 14.14% for the same twelve month period in 2012. The higher ROAA and ROAE ratios for the twelve months of 2013 as compared to 2012 was primarily due to improved credit quality, lower provision expense, higher noninterest income, and strong cost management. Contributing to the growth in ROAA and ROAE was solid growth in net interest income and a favorable net interest margin.

For the year of 2013, net interest income increased 13.5% over the year of 2012. Average earning assets increased 14.1%, while the net interest margin was 4.30% for the year of 2013, as compared to 4.32% for the year of 2012. For the year of 2013, the Company was able to maintain a strong net interest margin due to disciplined loan pricing practices, and has been able to reduce its cost of funds, while maintaining a favorable deposit mix, largely resulting from ongoing efforts to increase and expand client relationships.

The efficiency ratio improved to 49.90% for the year of 2013 from 51.40% for 2012. As a percentage of average assets, total noninterest expenses improved to 2.46% for the year of 2013 from 2.55% for the year 2012. Total noninterest expenses increased 11% for the year 2013 to $84.6 million as compared to $76.5 million for 2012. Cost increases for salaries and benefits were $3.8 million, primarily due to merit increases, incentive compensation and benefits increases, and staffing increases resulting primarily from additional lending personnel. Premises and equipment expenses were $1.7 million higher due primarily to the cost of new branch offices and normal increases in leasing costs. Data processing costs increased by $1.5 million due to system enhancements and increased customer transaction expenses. Decreases in legal and professional fees of $804 thousand were due primarily to declines in costs related to problem loans. FDIC insurance premiums were $174 thousand higher due to growth in total assets. Other expenses increased for the first twelve months of 2013 versus 2012 by $1.8 million, due primarily to a nonrecurring expense and increased OREO related costs.

The provision for credit losses was $9.6 million for the year of 2013 as compared to $16.2 million in 2012. The lower provisioning is due to a combination of lower net charge-offs, a lower level of nonperforming loans and overall improvement in asset quality. For the year of 2013, net charge-offs totaled $6.2 million (0.23% of average loans) compared to $8.4 million (0.37% of average loans) for the year of 2012, a dollar decline of 26%. Net charge-offs in the year of 2013 were attributable to charge-offs of commercial and industrial loans ($3.5 million), construction loans ($1.3 million), the unguaranteed portion of SBA loans ($659 thousand), commercial real estate loans ($602 thousand) and home equity and consumer loans ($135 thousand).

Noninterest income for the year of 2013 was $24.7 million compared to $21.4 million in 2012, an increase of 15.7%. This increase was due primarily to a $1.7 million increase in gains realized on the sale of SBA loans, offset by a $1.0 million decrease in gains realized on the sale of residential loans, a $670 thousand increase on service charges on deposit accounts and a $1.9 million increase in other noninterest income due primarily to increased loan related fees and annuity income. Additionally, bank owned life insurance income increased $328 thousand due to new investments. Net investment gains were $19 thousand in 2013 and $690 thousand in 2012. A $529 thousand loss on the early extinguishment of debt was recorded in September of 2012 due to the restructuring of a Federal Home Loan Bank advance. Excluding investment securities gains and the loss on the early extinguishment of debt, total noninterest income was $24.7 million for the year of 2013, as compared to $21.2 million for 2012, a 17% increase, which represented 15% of total revenue for the year of 2013 as compared to 14% for the year of 2012.

(2) The Company considers the following non-GAAP measurements useful for investors, regulators, management and others to evaluate capital adequacy and to compare against other financial institutions. The table below provides a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures with financial measures defined by GAAP.
 
Tangible common equity to tangible assets (the "tangible common equity ratio") and tangible book value per common share are non-GAAP financial measures derived from GAAP-based amounts. The Company calculates the tangible common equity ratio by excluding the balance of intangible assets from common shareholders' equity and dividing by tangible assets. The Company calculates tangible book value per common share by dividing tangible common equity by common shares outstanding, as compared to book value per common share, which the Company calculates by dividing common shareholders' equity by common shares outstanding. The Company considers this information important to shareholders' as tangible equity is a measure that is consistent with the calculation of capital for bank regulatory purposes, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk based ratios.
