TowneBank Reports Third Quarter 2023 Earnings


SUFFOLK, Va., Oct. 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TowneBank (the "Company" or "Towne") (NASDAQ: TOWN) today reported earnings for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 of $44.86 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, compared to $50.17 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

"We were pleased to deliver a solid performance for the quarter which reflected the strength of our core deposit franchise, diversified revenue model and robust capital levels. TowneBank continues to retain and grow its leading 28% deposit market share position in our home market in the Hampton Roads region, along with maintaining a top tier position in the Richmond, Raleigh, and Charlotte metropolitan markets, which validates our Main Street banking strategy. Average deposits were up $326 million versus the sequential quarter, excluding brokered deposits, which allowed us to reduce higher cost borrowings. Highlighting the value of our diversified revenue model, fee income benefited from stronger insurance revenues as we continue to build the intrinsic value of our insurance agency. While earnings will likely remain under pressure in the short run, we believe our conservative approach to balance sheet management will position our Company to benefit from opportunities despite a challenging operating environment," said G. Robert Aston, Jr., Executive Chairman.

Highlights for Third Quarter 2023:

  • Total revenues were $172.86 million, a decrease of $6.37 million, or 3.56%, compared to third quarter 2022. A decline in net interest income of $10.98 million, driven by an increase in interest expense, was partially offset by an increase in noninterest income of $4.61 million.
  • Loans held for investment were $11.17 billion, an increase of $0.61 billion, or 5.81%, compared to September 30, 2022, and a decrease of $35.04 million, or 0.31%, compared to June 30, 2023, 1.24% on an annualized basis. The increase from the prior year was primarily due to the January 2023 acquisition of Farmers Bankshares, Inc., ("Farmers"). Excluding loans acquired in the first quarter, total loans would have increased $335.47 million, or 3.18%, compared to September 30, 2022.
  • Total deposits were $13.88 billion, an increase of $468.74 million, or 3.49%, compared to third quarter 2022, driven by the Farmers acquisition. In comparison to June 30, 2023, total deposits increased 0.83%, or $114.14 million, 3.29% on an annualized basis.
  • Noninterest bearing deposits decreased 20.26%, to $4.44 billion, compared to third quarter 2022 and represented 32.02% of total deposits. Compared to the linked quarter, noninterest bearing deposits decreased 6.91%.
  • Annualized return on common shareholders' equity was 9.04% compared to 10.69% in third quarter 2022. Annualized return on average tangible common shareholders' equity (non-GAAP) was 13.11% compared to 15.27% in third quarter 2022.
  • Net interest margin was 2.95% for the quarter and taxable equivalent net interest margin (non-GAAP) was 2.98%, compared to the prior year quarter net interest margin of 3.28% and taxable equivalent net interest margin (non-GAAP) of 3.31%.
  • The effective tax rate was 17.34% in the quarter compared to 20.08% in third quarter 2022 and 18.41% in the linked quarter.

"We continue to prudently manage the Company during the uncertain economic environment. Seasonality in noninterest revenues and member deposit balances may create some volatility in the next few quarters, however, we believe in our conservative approach to growth, liquidity and capital deployment will prove to be the right strategy for our long-term success," stated William I. Foster III, President and Chief Executive Officer.

Quarterly Net Interest Income:

  • Net interest income was $113.06 million compared to $124.04 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The decrease was driven by increased deposit costs outpacing higher earning asset yields.
  • Tax-equivalent net interest margin (non-GAAP) was 2.98%, including purchase accounting accretion of 5 basis points, compared to 3.31%, including purchase accounting accretion of 2 basis points, for third quarter 2022.
  • On an average basis, loans held for investment, with a yield of 5.13%, represented 73.45% of earning assets at September 30, 2023 compared to a yield of 4.25% and 69.83% of earning assets in the third quarter of 2022.
  • Total cost of deposits increased to 1.84% from 0.30% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. Interest expense on deposits increased $53.94 million, or 527.28%, over the prior year quarter driven by the increase in rate.
  • Higher mortgage rates and low home sale inventory have adversely impacted our residential mortgage banking business.
  • Average interest-earning assets totaled $15.21 billion at September 30, 2023 compared to $14.99 billion at September 30, 2022, an increase of 1.47%.
  • Average interest-bearing liabilities totaled $9.75 billion, an increase of $1.40 billion, or 16.83% from prior year. Average short term FHLB borrowings were $248.91 million during the quarter.

Quarterly Provision for Credit Losses:

  • The quarterly provision for credit losses was an expense of $1.01 million compared to $3.93 million one year ago and $3.56 million in the linked quarter.
  • The allowance for credit losses on loans increased $1.65 million in third quarter 2023, compared to the linked quarter. The increase in the allowance was driven by changes in our portfolio composition, combined with changes to the macroeconomic forecast scenarios utilized in our models.
  • Net loan recoveries were $1.07 million in the quarter compared to net recoveries of $187 thousand in the prior year quarter and net charge-offs of $9 thousand in the linked quarter. Two notable recoveries in third quarter 2023 were related to charge-offs that occurred in the fourth quarter of 2022 and first quarter of 2023.
  • The ratio of net charge-offs (recoveries) to average loans on an annualized basis was (0.04)% in third quarter 2023, (0.01)% in third quarter 2022, and zero percent in the linked quarter.
  • The allowance for credit losses on loans represented 1.12% of total loans at September 30, 2023, 1.02% at September 30, 2022, and 1.10% at June 30, 2023. The allowance for credit losses on loans was 17.60 times nonperforming loans compared to 20.48 times at September 30, 2022 and 18.09 times at June 30, 2023.

  • Residential mortgage banking income was $10.65 million compared to $11.97 million in third quarter 2022. Loan volume decreased to $520.41 million in third quarter 2023 from $692.70 million in 2022. Higher mortgage rates coupled with low home sale inventory levels have adversely impacted production.   Residential purchase activity comprised 95.96% of production volume in the third quarter of 2023 compared to 93.20% in the prior year quarter.
  • Gross margins on residential mortgage sales increased 15 basis points from 3.02% in third quarter 2022 to 3.17% in the current quarter.
  • Total net insurance commissions increased $4.34 million, or 22.34%, to $23.78 million in third quarter 2023 compared to 2022. This resulted from increases in property and casualty commissions, which were driven by organic growth and commissions from a recent acquisition.
  • Property management fee revenue increased 29.41%, or $2.91 million, to $12.80 million in third quarter 2023 compared to 2022. Reservation income increased compared to the prior year due to higher rental inventories and income from a recent acquisition.

Quarterly Noninterest Expense:

  • Total noninterest expense was $117.70 million compared to $112.03 million in 2022, an increase of $5.67 million, or 5.06%. Increases in salaries and employee benefits of $1.80 million, FDIC and other insurance of $1.37 million, software expense of $1.54 million, and amortization expense of $0.97 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 2023 and an increase in the year-over-year number of employees, primarily related to the Farmers Bankshares, Inc. acquisition.
  • FDIC and other insurance increased due to an increased assessment rate in 2023.
  • Software expense increased due to growth related cost increases and a number of ongoing projects throughout the Company.
  • Amortization expense increased driven by the recent Farmers Bankshares, Inc. acquisition.
