TowneBank Reports First Quarter 2023 Earnings


SUFFOLK, Va., April 27, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TowneBank ("Towne") (NASDAQ: TOWN) today reported earnings for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 of $38.33 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, compared to $45.59 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. Excluding acquisition-related items, core earnings (non-GAAP) for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 were $46.30 million, or $0.62 per diluted share, compared to $45.63 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

"The quarter presented unexpected industry challenges which highlighted our prudent approach to conservative balance sheet management and growth. Our capital, liquidity and core funding has been a foundational pillar of our Company since inception and remains strong in the current environment. We expect our proven business model, which emphasizes diverse revenues and deep relationships, will provide opportunities to position Towne to successfully navigate volatile market conditions," said G. Robert Aston, Jr., Executive Chairman.

Highlights for First Quarter 2023:

  • Total revenues were $184.14 million, an increase of $18.73 million, or 11.32%, compared to first quarter 2022. An increase in net interest income of $24.17 million was partially offset by a $5.44 million decline in noninterest income, primarily related to the decline in residential mortgage banking income.
  • Pre-provision, pre-tax, net revenues (non-GAAP) were $59.60 million, an increase of $4.23 million, or 7.65%, compared to the prior year quarter.
  • Towne successfully completed the acquisition of Farmers Bankshares, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary Farmers Bank ("Farmers"), in January 2023. Included in that acquisition were $277.89 million in loans, $244.89 million in securities, and $514.57 million in deposits.
  • Loans held for investment were $11.17 billion, an increase of $1.26 billion, or 12.76%, compared to March 31, 2022, and $379.18 million, or 3.51%, compared to December 31, 2022.

Excluding $514.57 million in acquired deposits, total deposits decreased $688.24 million, or 5.00%, compared to prior year and $210.66 million, or 6.43% on an annualized basis compare to the linked quarter.

  • Annualized return on common shareholders' equity was 8.05% compared to 9.81% in first quarter 2022. Annualized return on average tangible common shareholders' equity (non-GAAP) was 11.83% compared to 14.08% in first quarter 2022.

  • Effective tax rate of 20.03% in the quarter compared to 19.77% in first quarter 2022 and 19.90% in the linked quarter.

"We were pleased to close the Farmers Bank partnership during the quarter and recently completed the systems conversion. Additionally, the growth in tangible book value during the quarter evidenced our well-structured approach to this transaction. Tougher economic conditions could present additional opportunities for us to grow both organically and through acquisition across our various lines of business. Our commitment to being a strong community asset in the markets we serve is unwavering, especially in challenging environments," stated William I. Foster III, President and Chief Executive Officer.

Quarterly Net Interest Income:

  • Net interest income was $123.38 million compared to $99.20 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The increase was driven by higher earning asset yields and increases in loan and investment securities balances, partially offset by increased deposit costs.
  • Tax-equivalent net interest margin (non-GAAP) was 3.39%, including purchase accounting accretion of 3 basis points, compared to 2.69%, including purchase accounting accretion of 6 basis points for first quarter 2022.
  • On an average basis, loans held for investment, with a yield of 4.88%, represented 74.61% of earning assets at March 31, 2023 compared to a yield of 4.01% and 64.26% of earning assets in the first quarter of 2022.
  • Total cost of deposits increased to 1.02% from 0.15% for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. Interest expense on deposits increased $29.04 million, or 593.38%, over the prior year quarter driven, primarily, by the increase in rate. Management expects continued pressure on the cost of deposits.
  • Rising funding costs continued to negatively impact profitability in our residential mortgage banking business.
  • Average interest-earning assets totaled $14.87 billion at March 31, 2023 compared to $15.05 billion at March 31, 2022, a decrease of 1.14%.
  • Average interest-bearing liabilities totaled $8.91 billion, an increase of $352.08 million, or 4.11% from prior year. Average short term FHLB borrowings were $263.33 million during the quarter.

Quarterly Provision for Credit Losses:

  • The quarterly provision for credit losses was an expense of $11.67 million compared to a provision benefit of $1.45 million one year ago and an expense of $6.07 million in the linked quarter. The provision includes an initial provision for credit losses of $4.01 million related to loans and commitments acquired in the Farmers transaction.
  • The allowance for credit losses on loans in first quarter 2023, compared to the linked quarter, increased $9.19 million, $5.05 million of which resulted from the January 2023 acquisition of Farmers. In addition to the initial loan provision discussed above, acquisition accounting for the purchased loan portfolio included an increase in our allowance of $1.38 million on acquired loans with purchase credit deteriorated loan marks. Additional allowance increases were driven by loan growth, changes in our portfolio composition and updates in the macroeconomic forecast scenarios.
  • Net loan charge-offs were $3.87 million, driven primarily by the charge-off of a single credit relationship, compared to $0.13 million one year prior and $2.90 million in the linked quarter. The ratio of net charge-offs to average loans on an annualized basis was 0.14% in first quarter 2023, 0.01% in first quarter 2022, and 0.11% in the linked quarter.
  • The allowance for credit losses on loans represented 1.07% of total loans at March 31, 2023, 1.05% at March 31, 2022, and 1.03% on December 31, 2022. The allowance for credit losses on loans was 12.87 times nonperforming loans compared to 21.52 times at March 31, 2022 and 17.67 times at December 31, 2022.

Quarterly Noninterest Income:

  • Total noninterest income was $60.77 million compared to $66.21 million in 2022, a decrease of $5.44 million, or 8.22%.
  • Residential mortgage banking income was $9.37 million compared to $14.64 million in first quarter 2022. Loan volume decreased to $416.22 million in first quarter 2023 from $819.99 million in 2022. The prolonged increase in mortgage rates has resulted in refinance activities dropping to 5% of total mortgage production volume, the lowest level since second quarter 2018. Residential purchase activity comprised 94.99% of production volume in the first quarter of 2023 compared to 77.93% in the prior year quarter.
  • Gross margins on residential mortgages increased 10 basis points from 3.01% in first quarter 2022 to 3.11% in the current quarter.
  • Total net insurance commissions increased $3.75 million, or 19.66%, to $22.82 million in first quarter 2023 compared to 2022. This resulted from increases in property and casualty commissions, which were driven by organic growth, higher contingency income, and commissions from two recent acquisitions.
  • Property management fee revenue decreased 9.40%, or $1.61 million, to $15.54 million in first quarter 2023 compared to 2022. Reservation income is down compared to the prior year due to decreased bookings at our property management locations.
  • Real estate brokerage income declined driven by a 29.04% decline in sale volume. The combination of higher mortgage loan rates and continued low home sales inventories impacted income in first quarter 2023.

Quarterly Noninterest Expense:

  • Total noninterest expense was $124.40 million compared to $109.38 million in 2022, an increase of $15.02 million, or 13.73%. Increases in salaries and employee benefits of $5.46 million, acquisition-related expenses of $5.91 million, software expense of $1.13 million, and charitable contributions of $1.03 million were the primary sources of the increase.
  • Salaries and benefits expense increases were driven by annual base salary adjustments that went into effect July 2022 and an increase in the year-over-year number of employees, primarily related to the Farmers acquisition.
  • Software expense increased due to a number of ongoing projects related to recent acquisitions, our loan portfolio and mortgage.
