Eagle Bancorp, Inc. Announces 20% Increase in Net Income for First Quarter of 2016 Over 2015


BETHESDA, Md., April 20, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eagle Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ:EGBN), the parent company of EagleBank, today announced record quarterly net income of $23.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, a 20% increase over the $19.4 million net income for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Net income available to common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2016 increased 21% to $23.3 million as compared to $19.2 million for the same period in 2015.

Net income per basic common share for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was $0.70 compared to $0.62 for the same period in 2015, a 13% increase. Net income per diluted common share for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was $0.68 compared to $0.61 for the same period in 2015, an 11% increase.

“We are very pleased to report our twenty-ninth consecutive quarter of record earnings, which continued to exhibit positive trends of balance sheet growth, revenue growth, solid asset quality and improved operating leverage,” noted Ronald D. Paul, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Eagle Bancorp, Inc.  Mr. Paul added, “in addition to quarterly earnings having increased for each quarter since the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company has demonstrated quarterly earnings growth in the five quarters since completing the merger with Virginia Heritage Bank in the fourth quarter of 2014.”

The Company’s performance in the first quarter of 2016 as compared to 2015 was highlighted by growth in total loans of 16% and in total deposits of 13%; by 11% growth in total assets; by 10% growth in total revenue; by an annualized net charge-off ratio to average loans of 0.09% and by further improvement in operating leverage from an already favorable position. For the first quarter in 2016, the efficiency ratio was 40.80%. Mr. Paul added, “at a time when the net interest margins of banks are being challenged given the continuing low interest rate environment, the Company remains committed to emphasizing favorable cost management measures and strong productivity.” The strong first quarter earnings resulted in an annualized return on average assets (“ROAA”) of 1.54% and an annualized return on average common equity (“ROACE”) of 12.39%.

For the first quarter of 2016, total loans grew 3.2% over December 31, 2015, and averaged 16% higher in the first quarter of 2016 as compared to the first quarter of 2015. For the first quarter of 2016, total deposits increased about 1% over December 31, 2015, and averaged 19% higher for the first quarter of 2016 compared with the first quarter of 2015.

The net interest margin was 4.31% for the first quarter of 2016, ten basis points lower than the first quarter of 2015 and seven basis points lower than the fourth quarter of 2015. Mr. Paul noted, “the continuing low interest rate environment has provided a challenging time for spread earnings. In the current environment, the Company has continued its emphasis on disciplined pricing for both new loans and funding sources, which has resulted in the Company maintaining a superior net interest margin. Despite the contraction in our Net Interest Margin (“NIM”), our focus continues on all of the overall factors that contribute to allow our Earnings Per Share (“EPS”) to continue to grow.”

Total revenue (net interest income plus noninterest income) for the first quarter of 2016 was $68.9 million, or 10% above the $62.5 million of total revenue earned for the first quarter of 2015 and was consistent with the $69.1 million of revenue earned in the fourth quarter of 2015.

The primary driver of the Company’s revenue growth for the first quarter of 2016 as compared to the first quarter in 2015 was its net interest income growth of 14% ($62.6 million versus $54.7 million).  Noninterest income declined by 19% in the first quarter 2016, due substantially to fewer residential loan originations and related gains on the sale of residential mortgage loans. Excluding gains on sales of investment securities and prepayment penalties on early payoffs of Federal Home Loan Banking (“FHLB”) advances in the first quarter of 2015, core noninterest income was $5.7 million in the first quarter of 2016 as compared to $6.8 million for the first quarter of 2015, a decline of 16%.   

While the Company’s primary focus continues to be on generating spread or net interest income, management also looks to residential mortgage banking as well as Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loan activity as components of the Company’s ongoing noninterest income growth opportunities. For the first quarter of 2016, gains on the sale of residential mortgage loans was $1.2 million as compared to $3.2 million for the first quarter of 2015, a three month period of substantial refinance activity. Sales of SBA guaranteed loans resulted in $243 thousand of gains on sales for the first quarter of 2016 versus $340 thousand for the same period in 2015.

Asset quality measures remained solid at March 31, 2016. Net charge-offs (annualized) were 0.09% of average loans for the first quarter of 2016, as compared to 0.15% of average loans for the first quarter of 2015. At March 31, 2016, the Company’s nonperforming loans amounted to $21.9 million (0.43% of total loans) as compared to $19.6 million (0.44% of total loans) at March 31, 2015 and $13.2 million (0.26% of total loans) at December 31, 2015. Nonperforming assets amounted to $25.8 million (0.42% of total assets) at March 31, 2016 compared to $31.9 million (0.58% of total assets) at March 31, 2015 and $19.1 million (0.31% of total assets) at December 31, 2015.

Management continues to remain attentive to any 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 credit losses, at 1.06% of total loans (excluding loans held for sale) at March 31, 2016, is adequate to absorb potential credit losses within the loan portfolio at that date. The allowance for credit losses was 1.07% at March 31, 2015 and 1.05% of total loans at December 31, 2015.  The allowance for credit losses represented 249% of nonperforming loans at March 31, 2016, as compared to 244% at March 31, 2015 and 398% at December 31, 2015.

“The Company’s focus on productivity remained quite strong in the quarter,” noted Mr. Paul. The efficiency ratio of 40.80% reflects management’s ongoing efforts to maintain superior operating leverage. The annualized level of noninterest expenses as a percentage of average assets has declined to 1.85% in the first quarter of 2016 as compared to 2.13% in the first quarter of 2015. The merger completed in the fourth quarter of 2014 accelerated a trend of improvement in the Company’s operating leverage which continues to occur and which has carried into subsequent quarters. A relatively stable staff, branch rationalization and leveraging of other fixed costs have been the major reasons for improved operating leverage. The Company’s goal is to maximize operating performance without inhibiting growth or negatively impacting our ability to service our customers. Mr. Paul further noted, “We will maintain strict oversight of expenses, while retaining an infrastructure to remain competitive, support our growth initiatives and manage risk.” We continue seeing the efficiencies we expected as a result of a variety of investments in technology, as well as the efficiencies created by the Merger with Virginia Heritage Bank.

Total assets at March 31, 2016 were $6.13 billion, a 12% increase as compared to $5.50 billion at March 31, 2015, and a 1% increase as compared to $6.08 billion at December 31, 2015. Total loans (excluding loans held for sale) were $5.16 billion at March 31, 2016, a 16% increase as compared to $4.44 billion at March 31, 2015, and a 3.2% increase as compared to $5.00 billion at December 31, 2015. Loans held for sale amounted to $45.7 million at March 31, 2016 as compared to $62.8 million at March 31, 2015, a 27% decrease, and $47.5 million at December 31, 2015, a 4% decrease. The investment portfolio totaled $487.6 million at March 31, 2016, a 46% increase from the $333.5 million balance at March 31, 2015. As compared to December 31, 2015, the investment portfolio at March 31, 2016 decreased by $260 thousand or 0.1%.

Total deposits at March 31, 2016 were $5.19 billion compared to deposits of $4.58 billion at March 31, 2015, a 13% increase and $5.16 billion at December 31, 2015, a 0.6% increase. Total borrowed funds (excluding customer repurchase agreements) were $69.0 million at March 31, 2016, $78.1 million at March 31, 2015 and $68.9 million at December 31, 2015. We continue to work on expanding the breadth and depth of our existing relationships while we pursue building new relationships.

Total shareholders’ equity at March 31, 2016 increased 3%, to $762.5 million, compared to $741.5 million at March 31, 2015, and increased 3%, from $738.6 million, at December 31, 2015. The increase in shareholders’ equity at March 31, 2016 compared to the same period in 2015 reflects increased earnings offset by the redemption of all $71.9 million of the preferred stock issued under the Small Business Lending Fund ("SBLF") during the fourth quarter of 2015. The Company’s capital position remains substantially in excess of regulatory requirements for well capitalized status, with a total risk based capital ratio of 12.87% at March 31, 2016, as compared to 13.90% at March 31, 2015, and 12.75% at December 31, 2015. In addition, the tangible common equity ratio was 10.86% at March 31, 2016, compared to 10.39% at March 31, 2015 and 10.56% at December 31, 2015.

For the three months ended March 31, 2016, the Company reported an annualized ROAA of 1.54% as compared to 1.49% for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The annualized ROACE for the three months ended March 31, 2016 was 12.39%, as compared to 13.24% for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The lower ROACE during the three months ended March 31, 2016 is due to a higher average capital position.

Net interest income increased 14% for the three months ended March 31, 2016 over the same period in 2015 ($62.6 million versus $54.7 million), resulting from growth in average earning assets of 16%. The net interest margin was 4.31% for the three months ended March 31, 2016, as compared to 4.41% for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The Company believes its net interest margin remains favorable compared to peer banking companies and that its disciplined approach to managing the loan portfolio yield to 5.13% for the first quarter in 2016 has been a significant factor in its overall profitability.

The provision for credit losses was $3.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 as compared to $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. The lower provisioning in the first quarter of 2016, as compared to the first quarter of 2015, is due to lower net charge-offs. Net charge-offs of $1.1 million in the first quarter of 2016 represented an annualized 0.09% of average loans, excluding loans held for sale, as compared to $1.6 million, or an annualized 0.15% of average loans, excluding loans held for sale, in the first quarter of 2015. Net charge-offs in the first quarter of 2016 were attributable primarily to commercial ($733 thousand) and investment-commercial real estate ($390 thousand) loans.

Noninterest income for the three months ended March 31, 2016 decreased to $6.3 million from $7.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015, a 19% decrease. This decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $2.1 million in gains on the sale of residential mortgage loans due to lower origination and sales volumes and a decrease in gains realized on the sale of investment securities of $1.5 million. Residential mortgage loans closed were $132 million for the first quarter in 2016 versus $285 million for the first quarter of 2015. Net investment gains were $624 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2016 compared to $2.2 million for the same period in 2015. These decreases were offset by a $1.1 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt recorded in March of 2015 due to the early payoff of FHLB advances and an increase of $905 thousand in other income due primarily to a $573 thousand gain on the sale of one OREO property. Excluding investment securities gains and the loss on early extinguishment of debt, total noninterest income was $5.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, as compared to $6.8 million for the same period in 2015, a 16% decrease.

The efficiency ratio, which measures the ratio of noninterest expense to total revenue, was 40.80% for the first quarter of 2016, as compared to 44.89% for the first quarter of 2015. Noninterest expenses totaled $28.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, as compared to $28.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2015. Cost increases for salaries and benefits were $413 thousand, due primarily to increased staff, merit increases and employee benefit expense increases. Premises and equipment expenses were $184 thousand lower, due primarily to the closing of one branch office acquired in the merger and the in-process downsizing of two other banking offices. Marketing and advertising expense increased by $89 thousand primarily due to costs associated with digital and print advertising and sponsorships. Data processing expense increased $230 thousand primarily due to increased accounts and transaction volume and to licensing agreements. Higher FDIC expenses were due to higher deposit levels. Other expenses declined primarily due to lower OREO expenses.

(1) 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 and as such is 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.

(1) 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 and as such is useful for investors, regulators, management and others to evaluate capital adequacy and to compare against other financial institutions. 
(2) Computed by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income.  
(3) Excludes loans held for sale.
