CBTX, Inc. Reports Quarterly Financial Results


HOUSTON, April 28, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- CBTX, Inc., or the Company (NASDAQ: CBTX), the bank holding company for CommunityBank of Texas, N.A., or the Bank, today announced its results for the first quarter of 2021.

Robert R. Franklin, Jr., Chairman, CEO and President of the Company stated, “During the first quarter of 2021, our markets continued to improve as companies worked toward returning to pre-pandemic operation. Every day we see more people returning to work as businesses create healthy work environments for both employees and customers. We have seen tremendous liquidity in the system, and our deposits continued to grow through the first quarter of 2021. We anticipate that as the economy recovers, we will see more of that liquidity put to work by our customers and the bank.”

Mr. Franklin concluded, “Our loan portfolio remains strong with little deferral activity remaining. We will continue to work with customers in the hardest hit segments of the economy that will take a little longer to recover. We are also mindful to enhance our shareholders’ return as we increased our quarterly dividend from $0.10 per share to $0.13 per share. We are optimistic about the second half of the year as markets attempt to recapture some of the lost revenues of the last year. Our balance sheet and capital remain strong which gives us many options going forward to drive shareholder value.”

Operating Results

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $33.1 million for the first quarter of 2021, compared to $32.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2020 and $32.2 million for the first quarter of 2020. Net interest income increased $570,000 during the first quarter of 2021, compared to the fourth quarter of 2020, primarily due to higher loan rates and lower deposit rates, partially offset by the impact of two fewer days and lower average loans in the first quarter of 2021. Net interest income increased $870,000 during the first quarter of 2021, compared to the first quarter of 2020, primarily due to higher average loans, securities and other interest-earning assets and lower deposit rates, partially offset by lower rates on loans, securities and other interest-earning assets and the impact of one less day in the first quarter of 2021.

The yield on interest-earning assets was 3.85% for the first quarter of 2021, compared to 3.79% for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 4.56% for the first quarter of 2020. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 0.34% for the first quarter of 2021, 0.39% for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 0.94% for the first quarter of 2020. The Company’s net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis was 3.71% for the first quarter of 2021, compared to 3.62% for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 4.06% for the first quarter of 2020.

Provision/Recapture for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses was $412,000 for the first quarter of 2021, compared to a credit reserve recapture of $135,000 for the fourth quarter of 2020 and a provision for credit losses of $5.0 million for the first quarter of 2020.

The provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2021 was primarily due to increases of $237,000 and $126,000 in the ACL for loans and unfunded commitments, respectively, in addition to $49,000 in net loan charge-offs. The recapture in the fourth quarter of 2020 primarily related to a $364,000 recapture for unfunded commitments, partially offset by a provision of $229,000 for loans. The provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2020 resulted from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the sustained instability of the oil and gas industry which led to the adjustment of certain factors utilized to determine the ACL.  

The ACL for loans was $40.9 million, or 1.41% of loans excluding loans held for sale, at March 31, 2021, compared to $40.6 million, or 1.39% of loans excluding loans held for sale, at December 31, 2020 and $31.2 million, or 1.17% of loans excluding loans held for sale, at March 31, 2020.  At March 31, 2021, there were minimal adjustments to the qualitative factors utilized in calculating the ACL. The increase in the ACL from December 31, 2020 to March 31, 2021 was primarily due to an increase in specific reserves for loans individually evaluated within the portfolio and a slight increase in the general reserve. Although the collectively evaluated loan portfolio decreased $27.3 million compared to December 31, 2020, the general reserve increased $14,000 because balances in certain portfolio segments with higher historical loss rates and higher qualitative factor rates increased as a component of the overall portfolio resulting in an increase in the ACL. The increase in the ACL from March 31, 2020 to March 31, 2021 was primarily due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the sustained instability of the oil and gas industry during 2020.

The ACL for unfunded commitments was $4.3 million at March 31, 2021, compared to $4.2 million at December 31, 2020 and $3.7 million at March 31, 2020.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income was $3.1 million for the first quarter of 2021, $3.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2020 and $4.3 million for the first quarter of 2020. The decrease of $1.2 million for the first quarter of 2021, compared to the first quarter of 2020, was primarily due to swap origination fee income recognized in 2020.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense was $23.3 million for the first quarter of 2021, compared to $23.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2020 and $22.1 million for the first quarter of 2020. The decrease in noninterest expense of $373,000 between the first quarter of 2021 and the fourth quarter of 2020 was primarily due to a $1.5 million decrease in professional and director fees, mainly consulting fees related to Bank Secrecy Act/Anti-Money Laundering, or BSA/AML, compliance matters, partially offset by a $1.3 million increase in salaries and employee benefits reflecting reductions to bonus accruals in the fourth quarter of 2020. Total consulting related fees associated with BSA/AML compliance matters were $661,000 in the first quarter of 2021, compared to $2.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2020.

The increase in noninterest expense of $1.2 million for the first quarter of 2021, compared to the first quarter of 2020, was primarily due to a $551,000 increase in professional and director fees, a $354,000 increase in data processing and software and a $453,000 increase in regulatory fees. The increase in professional and director fees during the first quarter of 2021, compared to the first quarter of 2020, was primarily due to $661,000 in consulting related fees associated with BSA/AML compliance matters recognized in the first quarter of 2021.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense was $2.5 million for the first quarter of 2021, $2.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2020 and $1.9 million for the first quarter of 2020. The effective tax rates were 19.87% for the first quarter of 2021, 18.24% for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 19.85% for the first quarter of 2020. The differences between the federal statutory rate of 21% and the effective tax rates were largely attributable to permanent differences primarily related to tax exempt interest and bank-owned life insurance earnings.

Balance Sheet Highlights

Loans

Loans excluding loans held for sale were $2.9 billion at March 31, 2021, $2.9 billion at December 31, 2020 and $2.7 billion at March 31, 2020.

The increase from March 31, 2020 to March 31, 2021 was impacted by the Company’s participation in the Paycheck Protection Program, or PPP, under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act, or CARES Act, which facilitates loans to small businesses. PPP loans, net of deferred fees and unearned discounts, were $268.8 million at March 31, 2021 and $271.2 million at December 31, 2020.

In support of customers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company offered relief through payment deferrals during 2020 and the first quarter of 2021. As of March 31, 2021, the Company had 16 loans subject to such deferral arrangements with total outstanding principal balances of $34.3 million and as of December 31, 2020 the Company had 21 loans subject to such deferral arrangements with total outstanding principal balances of $38.4 million.

Asset Quality

Nonperforming assets remain relatively low at $23.6 million, or 0.59% of total assets, at March 31, 2021, $24.0 million, or 0.61% of total assets, at December 31, 2020 and $1.4 million, or 0.04% of total assets, at March 31, 2020.

Annualized net charge-offs (recoveries) to average loans was 0.01% for the first quarter of 2021, 0.49% for the fourth quarter of 2020 and (0.05)% for the first quarter of 2020.

Deposits and Borrowings

Total deposits were $3.4 billion at March 31, 2021, $3.3 billion at December 31, 2020 and $2.8 billion at March 31, 2020. The increase in deposits of $83.0 million between December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2021 was due to net deposit inflows of $145.0 million in noninterest-bearing accounts partially offset by net deposit outflows of $62.0 million in interest-bearing accounts. The increase in deposits of $592.5 million between March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2021 was due to net deposit inflows of $425.9 million and $166.6 million in noninterest-bearing accounts and interest-bearing accounts, respectively.

The Company defines total borrowings as the total of repurchase agreements, Federal Home Loan Bank advances and notes payable. Total borrowings were $50.0 million, $50.0 million and $51.4 million at March 31, 2021, December 31, 2020 and March 31, 2020, respectively.

Capital

At March 31, 2021, the Company continued to be well capitalized and maintained strong capital ratios under bank regulatory requirements. The Company’s total risk-based capital ratio was 17.00% at March 31, 2021, compared to 16.71% at December 31, 2020 and 16.42% at March 31, 2020. The Company’s tier 1 leverage ratio was 11.90% at March 31, 2021, compared to 12.00% at December 31, 2020 and 13.18% at March 31, 2020. The Company’s total shareholders’ equity to total assets ratio was 13.54% at March 31, 2021, 13.84% at December 31, 2020 and 15.67% at March 31, 2020.

The ratio of tangible equity to tangible assets was 11.67% at March 31, 2021, 11.94% at December 31, 2020 and 13.51% at March 31, 2020. Tangible equity to tangible assets is a non-GAAP financial measure. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, to tangible equity to tangible assets is total shareholders’ equity to total assets. See the table captioned “Non‑GAAP to GAAP Reconciliation” at the end of this earnings release.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company’s accounting and reporting policies conform to GAAP and the prevailing practices in the banking industry. The Company’s management also evaluates performance based on certain non-GAAP financial measures. The Company classifies a financial measure as being a non-GAAP financial measure if that financial measure excludes or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding or including amounts, that are not included or excluded in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP as in effect from time to time in the United States in its statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows.

This earnings release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures including “tangible book value,” “tangible book value per common share,” and “tangible equity to tangible assets,” which are supplemental measures that are not required by, or are not presented in accordance with, GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures do not include operating, other statistical measures or ratios calculated using exclusively financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the way we calculate the non-GAAP financial measures may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.

Please refer to the table titled “Non-GAAP to GAAP Reconciliation” at the end of this earnings release for a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures.

Forward-Looking Statements

This earnings release may contain certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the securities laws that are based on various facts and derived utilizing important assumptions, current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company and its subsidiary. Forward-looking statements include information regarding the Company’s future financial performance, business and growth strategy, projected plans and objectives, as well as projections of macroeconomic and industry trends, which are inherently unreliable due to the multiple factors that impact economic trends, and any such variations may be material. Statements preceded by, followed by or that otherwise include the words “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “projects,” “estimates,” “plans” and similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “should,” “would,” “may” and “could” are generally forward-looking in nature and not historical facts, although not all forward-looking statements include the foregoing. Further, certain factors that could affect our future results and cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: the Company’s ability to manage the economic risks related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the sustained instability in the oil and gas industry (including risks related to its customers’ credit quality, deferrals and modifications to loans, the Company’s ability to borrow, and the impact of a resultant recession generally); natural disasters and adverse weather (including the effects of recent hurricanes, tropical storms, tropical depressions and winter storms on the Company’s market area), acts of war or terrorism, pandemics, an outbreak of hostilities or other international or domestic calamities and other matters beyond the Company’s control; the geographic concentration of the Company’s markets in Beaumont and Houston, Texas; the Company’s ability to manage changes and the continued health or availability of management personnel; the amount of nonperforming and classified assets that the Company holds and the time and effort necessary to resolve nonperforming assets; deterioration of asset quality; interest rate risk associated with the Company’s business; national business and economic conditions in general and in the financial services industry, and within the Company’s primary markets; volatility and direction of oil prices, including risks related to the collapse and instability in oil prices, and the strength of the energy industry, generally and within Texas; the composition of the Company’s loan portfolio, including the identity of the Company’s borrowers and the concentration of loans in specialized industries, including the creditworthiness of energy company borrowers; changes in the value of collateral securing the Company’s loans; the Company’s ability to maintain important deposit customer relationships and its reputation; the Company’s ability to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting; the Company’s ability to pursue available remedies in the event of a loan default for PPP loans and the risk of holding such loans at unfavorable interest rates and on terms that are less favorable than those with customers to whom the Company would have otherwise lent; the volatility and direction of market interest rates; liquidity risks associated with the Company’s business; systems failures, interruptions or breaches involving the Company’s information technology and telecommunications systems or third‑party servicers; the failure of certain third-party vendors to perform; the initiation and outcome of litigation and other legal proceedings against the Company or to which it may become subject; the operational risks associated with the Company’s business; the costs, effects and results of regulatory examinations, investigations, including the ongoing investigation by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network of the U.S. Department of Treasury, or FinCEN, or reviews or the ability to obtain the required regulatory approvals; the Company’s ability to meet the requirements of its Formal Agreement with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and the risk that such Formal Agreement may have a negative impact on the Company’s financial performance and results of operations; changes in the laws, rules, regulations, interpretations or policies relating to financial institution, accounting, tax, trade, monetary and fiscal matters; governmental or regulatory responses to the COVID-19 pandemic and newly enacted fiscal stimulus that impact the Company’s loan portfolio and forbearance practice; and further government intervention in the U.S. financial system that may impact how the Company achieves its performance goals. Additionally, many of these risks and uncertainties are currently elevated by and may or will continue to be elevated by the COVID-19 pandemic. The foregoing factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read together with the other cautionary statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, and other reports and statements that the Company has filed with the SEC. If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if the Company’s underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from what it anticipates. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and the Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise. New factors emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict which will arise. In addition, the Company cannot assess the impact of each factor on its business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

Non‑GAAP to GAAP Reconciliation 
(In thousands, except per share data and percentages)

Our accounting and reporting policies conform to GAAP and the prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, we also evaluate our performance based on certain additional non‑GAAP financial measures. We classify a financial measure as being a non‑GAAP financial measure if that financial measure excludes or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding or including amounts, that are not included or excluded in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP as in effect from time to time in the United States in our statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows. Non‑GAAP financial measures do not include operating, other statistical measures or ratios calculated using exclusively financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Non‑GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the way we calculate the non‑GAAP financial measures may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.

We calculate tangible equity as total shareholders’ equity, less goodwill and other intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization, and tangible book value per share as tangible equity divided by shares of common stock outstanding at the end of the relevant period. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for tangible book value per share is book value per share.

We calculate tangible assets as total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure for tangible equity to tangible assets is total shareholders’ equity to total assets.

We believe that tangible book value per share and tangible equity to tangible assets are measures that are important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in book value per share and total shareholders’ equity to total assets, exclusive of change in intangible assets.

The following table reconciles, as of the dates set forth below, total shareholders’ equity to tangible equity, total assets to tangible assets and presents book value per share, tangible book value per share, tangible equity to tangible assets and total shareholders’ equity to total assets:
