NORWICH, N.Y., April 26, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NBT Bancorp Inc. (“NBT” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: NBTB) reported net income and diluted earnings per share for the three months ended March 31, 2021.
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was $39.8 million, or $0.91 per diluted common share. Net income increased $5.7 million from the previous quarter primarily due to lower provision for loan losses and branch optimization charges recognized in the previous quarter. Net income increased $29.5 million from the first quarter of 2020 due to the adoption of the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) accounting methodology, including the estimated impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on expected credit losses, which resulted in first quarter 2020 provision for loan losses of $29.6 million.
Pre-provision net revenue (“PPNR”)1 for the first quarter of 2021 was $47.5 million compared to $48.2 million in the previous quarter and $44.9 million in the first quarter of 2020.
CEO Comments
“The results for the first quarter of 2021 demonstrate the resiliency of our banking platform. We drove commercial loan growth and experienced increased levels of consumer activity. Our mortgage pipeline is strong, and our indirect auto business exceeded production targets,” said NBT President and CEO John H. Watt, Jr. “We are optimistic about the prospects for the rest of the year driven by pent up demand and a snap back in many sectors of the economy that we anticipate will occur as the markets we serve continue to open up. Sustained levels of excellent credit quality allow for plenty of optionality in the deployment of capital which will drive growth. Record Assets Under Management and Administration in our wealth management business exceeded $9 billion. Finally, we leaned heavily into the Paycheck Protection Program in the latest round of funding to support the Main Street businesses and non-profits that are the backbone of the communities we serve.”

Deposits
- Average total deposits in the first quarter of 2021 were $9.3 billion, compared to $9.1 billion in the fourth quarter of 2020, driven by increases in non-interest bearing demand deposit accounts and savings deposit accounts.
- Loan to deposit ratio was 77.8% at March 31, 2021, compared to 82.6% at December 31, 2020.
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

- The NIM on a fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”) basis for the first quarter of 2021 was 3.17%, down 3 bps from the fourth quarter of 2020 and down 35 bps from the first quarter of 2020. The net impact of PPP loans and excess liquidity impacted the NIM by 8 bps in the both the first quarter and fourth quarter of 2020. Excluding the impact of PPP lending and excess liquidity from each quarter, the NIM decreased 3 bps from the prior quarter primarily due to an 8 bps decline in earning asset yields partially offset by a 6 bps decline in the cost of interest bearing liabilities and a $141 million increase in average checking deposit account balances during the quarter.
- Earning asset yields for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were down 8 bps from the prior quarter and down 69 bps from the same quarter in the prior year. Earning assets grew $155.5 million or 1.6% from the prior quarter and grew $1.3 billion or 14.4% from the same quarter in the prior year. The following are highlights from the prior quarter:

- The average balance of investment securities increased $83.0 million while yields declined 6 bps.
- Loan yields decreased 4 bps to 4.02% for the quarter. Excluding PPP loans, yields decreased 7 bps from the prior quarter driven by a 12 bps yield reduction in the commercial loan portfolio.

- The cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was 0.34%, down 6 bps compared to the prior quarter of 0.40% and down 48 bps from the first quarter of 2020 of 0.82%.

- Net charge-offs to total average loans of 12 bps (13 bps excluding PPP loans) compared to 21 bps (22 bps excluding PPP loans) in the prior quarter and 32 bps in the first quarter of 2020. The decrease in charge-offs during the first quarter of 2021 was primarily due to lower charge-offs in commercial and indirect auto, which continue to be at lower levels due to pandemic relief programs.
- Nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.41% (0.43% excluding PPP loans) compared to 0.45% (0.47% excluding PPP loans) at December 31, 2020.
- Provision expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was ($2.8) million and net charge-offs were $2.2 million. Provision expense decreased $2.2 million from the fourth quarter of 2020 and decreased $32.4 million from the first quarter of 2020. The decrease in provision expense from the prior quarter and first quarter of 2020 was primarily due to the reduction in the level of allowance for loan losses resulting from an improved economic forecast.
- The allowance for loan losses was $105.0 million or 1.38% (1.48% excluding PPP loans and related allowance) of total loans compared to 1.47% (1.56% excluding PPP loans and related allowance) at December 31, 2020. The decrease in the level of allowance for credit losses was primarily due to the positive impact the forecasted improving economic conditions had on expected credit losses.
- As of April 12, 2021, 1.0% of loans (loans outstanding as of March 31, 2021; excluding PPP balances) are in payment deferral programs which is down from the second quarter 2020 peak of 14.9%.

- Service charges on deposit accounts were lower than the prior quarter and lower than the first quarter of 2020. Overdraft charges have been lower during the COVID-19 pandemic.
- ATM and debit card fees were comparable to the prior quarter and higher compared to the first quarter of 2020 due to increased volume and higher per transaction rates.
- Retirement plan administration fees were higher than the prior quarter driven by market performance and organic growth, and higher than the first quarter of 2020 due to the April 1, 2020 acquisition of Alliance Benefit Group of Illinois, Inc. (“ABG”) contributing $1.7 million in revenues during the first quarter of 2021 and $1.5 million during the fourth quarter of 2020.
- The decrease in other noninterest income from the prior quarter was primarily due to lower loan swap fee income and the decrease from the first quarter of 2020 was driven by lower loan swap fee income combined with lower mortgage banking income.
Noninterest Expense
- Total noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2021 was down 9.7% from the previous quarter and down 4.2% from the first quarter of 2020, primarily due to $4.1 million in branch optimization costs incurred during the fourth quarter of 2020.
- Salaries and benefits increased from the prior quarter due to seasonally higher payroll taxes and stock-based compensation expenses and increased from the first quarter of 2020 driven by the addition of ABG’s salaries and benefits.
- Data processing and communications increased from the prior quarter and the first quarter of 2020 driven by charges related to the addition of a digitized PPP platform.
- Professional fees and outside services decreased from the prior quarter due to timing of initiatives.
- Other expenses decreased $7.4 million from the prior quarter due to $4.1 million in branch optimization charges recognized in the prior quarter, a $1.4 million decrease in the provision for the reserve for unfunded commitments, lower travel training expenses and lower pension costs. The decrease from the first quarter of 2020 was due to a $2.5 million decrease in the reserve for unfunded commitments, lower travel training expenses during the COVID-19 pandemic and lower pension costs.
Income Taxes
- The effective tax rate was 21.9% for the first quarter of 2021 compared to 21.6% for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 14.2% for the first quarter of 2020. The increase from the first quarter of 2020 was due to a higher level of taxable income relative to total income.

Forward-Looking Statements
This news release contains forward-looking statements, as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements may be identified by the use of phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “forecasts,” “projects,” “will,” “can,” “would,” “should,” “could,” “may,” or other similar terms. There are a number of factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements include, among others, the following possibilities: (1) local, regional, national and international economic conditions and the impact they may have on the Company and its customers and the Company’s assessment of that impact; (2) changes in the level of nonperforming assets and charge-offs; (3) changes in estimates of future reserve requirements based upon the periodic review thereof under relevant regulatory and accounting requirements; (4) the effects of and changes in trade and monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including the interest rate policies of the Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”); (5) inflation, interest rate, securities market and monetary fluctuations; (6) political instability; (7) acts of war or terrorism; (8) the timely development and acceptance of new products and services and perceived overall value of these products and services by users; (9) changes in consumer spending, borrowings and savings habits; (10) changes in the financial performance and/or condition of the Company’s borrowers; (11) technological changes; (12) acquisitions and integration of acquired businesses; (13) the ability to increase market share and control expenses; (14) changes in the competitive environment among financial holding companies; (15) the effect of changes in laws and regulations (including laws and regulations concerning taxes, banking, securities and insurance) with which the Company and its subsidiaries must comply, including those under the Dodd-Frank Act, Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, Consumer Protection Act of 2018, Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), and other legislative and regulatory responses to the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic; (16) the effect of changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the regulatory agencies, as well as the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) and other accounting standard setters; (17) changes in the Company’s organization, compensation and benefit plans; (18) the costs and effects of legal and regulatory developments including the resolution of legal proceedings or regulatory or other governmental inquiries and the results of regulatory examinations or reviews; (19) greater than expected costs or difficulties related to the integration of new products and lines of business; (20) the adverse impact on the U.S. economy, including the markets in which we operate, of the novel coronavirus, which causes COVID-19 global pandemic; and (21) the Company’s success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing items.
Currently, one of the most significant factors that could cause actual outcomes to differ materially from the Company’s forward-looking statements is the potential adverse effect of the current COVID-19 pandemic on the financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and performance of the Company, its customers and the global economy and financial markets. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts the Company will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with confidence, including the scope, severity and duration of the pandemic and its impact on the Company’s customers and demand for financial services, the actions governments, businesses and individuals take in response to the pandemic, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and actions taken in response to the pandemic on global and regional economies, national and local economic activity, and the pace of recovery when the COVID-19 pandemic subsides, among others. Moreover, investors are cautioned to interpret many of the risks identified under the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 as being heightened as a result of the ongoing and numerous adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company cautions readers not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made, and advises readers that various factors including, but not limited to, those described above and other factors discussed in the Company’s annual and quarterly reports previously filed with the SEC, could affect the Company’s financial performance and could cause the Company’s actual results or circumstances for future periods to differ materially from those anticipated or projected. Unless required by law, the Company does not undertake, and specifically disclaims any obligations to, publicly release any revisions that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements.
