MERGER WITH CIT
On October 15, 2020, BancShares entered into a definitive merger agreement with CIT Group Inc. (“CIT”) through which the companies plan to combine in an all-stock merger. The transaction was approved by the North Carolina Commissioner of Banks on February 5, 2021, as well as the shareholders of both companies on February 9, 2021. We are continuing to work with other regulators on remaining approvals and anticipate closing in mid-2021 subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
ONGOING COVID-19 RESPONSE
BancShares remains dedicated to serving our customers and communities throughout the COVID-19 crisis. Our branches have re-opened with enhanced safety protocols and our corporate locations remain at limited occupancy as we navigate the challenges of COVID-19.
During the first quarter of 2021 in the second round of SBA-PPP, BancShares originated approximately 9,600 SBA-PPP loans totaling $1.1 billion. We recorded $30.9 million of interest and fee income related to SBA-PPP loans for the quarter. As of March 31, 2021, remaining net deferred fees on SBA-PPP loans were $66.7 million.
With respect to the first round of SBA-PPP, we began accepting and processing applications for forgiveness during the third quarter of 2020. We have received approximately 12,000 forgiveness decisions from the SBA to date, representing over $1.4 billion in forgiveness payments. BancShares originated approximately 23,000 loans during round one totaling $3.2 billion.
Through March 31, 2021, approximately 98% of all COVID-19 related loan extensions have begun repayment. Delinquency trends among loans entering repayment are in line with the remainder of the portfolio, and we have not seen significant declines in overall credit quality.
During 2020, we recorded $36.1 million in reserve build due to uncertainty surrounding COVID-19 and its potential impact on our credit portfolio. Improved macroeconomic factors used as inputs into our ACL models and continued low net charge-offs during the first quarter of 2021 resulted in a provision credit of $11.0 million driven primarily by a $13.7 million reserve release.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income was $339.7 million for the first quarter of 2021, an increase of $1.3 million, or by 0.4%, compared to the same quarter in 2020. This was primarily due to interest and fee income on SBA-PPP loans, organic loan growth and lower rates paid on interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by a decline in the yield on interest-earning assets. SBA-PPP loans contributed $30.9 million in interest and fee income during the quarter. The taxable-equivalent NIM was 2.80% during the first quarter of 2021, a decrease of 75 basis points from 3.55% for the same quarter in 2020. The margin decline was primarily due to a decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets and changes in earning asset mix, partially offset by lower rates paid on interest-bearing deposits and the yield on SBA-PPP loans. The taxable-equivalent NIM declined 22 basis points from 3.02% in the linked quarter primarily due to changes in earning asset mix and a decline in the yield on interest-earning assets.
PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES
Provision for credit losses was an $11.0 million credit for the first quarter of 2021, compared to $28.4 million in provision expense for the same quarter in 2020. The change was driven primarily by a $13.7 million reserve release attributable to continued low net charge-offs, strong credit performance, and improvements in macroeconomic factors.
Total net charge-offs for the first quarter of 2021 were $2.7 million, a decrease from $7.5 million for the same quarter in 2020 due to a lower volume of charge-offs and stable recoveries. The net charge-off ratio was 0.03% for the first quarter of 2021, compared to 0.10% for the same quarter in 2020. Excluding the impact of SBA-PPP loans on average loan balances, the net charge-off ratio was 0.04% for the first quarter of 2021.
NONINTEREST INCOME
Noninterest income was $136.6 million for the first quarter of 2021, an increase of $72.6 million, or by 113.5%, compared to $64.0 million for the same quarter in 2020. The largest driver of this increase was a $67.4 million favorable change in the fair market value adjustment on our marketable equity securities portfolio. Mortgage income increased by $7.8 million due to impairment of mortgage servicing rights recorded in the first quarter of 2020 and subsequently reversed in the current quarter as interest rates increased. Additionally, mortgage income increased as we experienced higher production and sales volume. Wealth management services increased by $5.8 million primarily due to increases in advisory and transaction fees, assets under management, and annuity fees. Realized gains on available for sale securities decreased by $10.6 million. Service charges on deposits decreased $4.9 million primarily due to elevated customer deposit balances.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Noninterest expense was $295.9 million for the first quarter of 2021, a decrease of $4.0 million, or by 1.3%, compared to the same quarter in 2020. Other expense decreased by $9.1 million driven by lower pension expense, a decrease in the reserve for unfunded commitments and declining travel expenses due to COVID-19. Processing fees paid to third parties increased by $3.3 million as a result of continued investment in digital and technological capabilities. Merger-related expenses increased by $2.6 million driven by legal and consulting expenses related to the pending merger with CIT.
INCOME TAXES
The effective tax rate was 23.0% for the first quarter of 2021 compared to 22.8% for the same quarter in 2020.
LOANS AND DEPOSITS
At March 31, 2021, loans totaled $33.18 billion, an increase of $388.9 million, or by 4.8% on an annualized basis, since December 31, 2020. Of this growth, $363.6 million was related to SBA-PPP loans. Excluding SBA-PPP loans, total loans increased $25.3 million, or by 0.3% on an annualized basis, since December 31, 2020.
At March 31, 2021, deposits totaled $47.33 billion, an increase of $3.90 billion, or by 36.4% on an annualized basis, since December 31, 2020, driven by organic growth, SBA-PPP loan fundings and stimulus checks.
ALLOWANCE FOR CREDIT LOSSES
The ACL was $210.7 million at March 31, 2021, compared to $224.3 million at December 31, 2020. The ACL as a percentage of total loans was 0.63% at March 31, 2021, compared to 0.68% at December 31, 2020. The reduction was primarily due to improved macroeconomic factors. Excluding SBA-PPP loans, which have no associated ACL, the ACL as a percentage of total loans was 0.69% as of March 31, 2021, compared to 0.74% as of December 31, 2020.
NONPERFORMING ASSETS
Nonperforming assets, including nonaccrual loans and other real estate owned, were $243.0 million, or 0.73% of total loans and other real estate owned at March 31, 2021, compared to $242.4 million or 0.74% at December 31, 2020. Excluding the impact of SBA-PPP loans on average loan balances, the ratio of total nonperforming assets to total loans, leases, and other real estate owned was 0.80% as of March 31, 2021, and December 31, 2020.
CAPITAL TRANSACTIONS
During the first quarter of 2021, BancShares did not repurchase any shares of Class A common stock compared to a total of 349,390 shares of Class A common stock for $159.7 million at an average cost per share of $457.10 for the same quarter in 2020. All Class A common stock repurchases completed in 2020 were consummated under previously approved authorizations.
