The Palmetto Bank Reports Third Quarter Net Income of $22.2 Million

Results Include Reversal of Substantially All of the Deferred Tax Asset Valuation Allowance

 

Greenville, S.C.Palmetto Bancshares, Inc. (NASDAQ: PLMT) (the “Company”) reported third quarter 2013 net income of $22.2 million ($1.75 per diluted share) compared to second quarter 2013 net income of $1.5 million ($0.12 per diluted share). For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, net income was $25.9 million ($2.04 per diluted share) compared to a net loss of $4.6 million ($0.36 per diluted share) for the nine months ended September 30, 2012. Results for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 reflect a non-cash income tax benefit resulting from the reversal of substantially all of the valuation allowance on the Company’s net deferred tax asset.

 

Highlights for the third quarter 2013 are summarized as follows:

 

Net income before benefit for income taxes was $2.8 million, which increased from $1.9 million in the second quarter 2013.

Net income includes a benefit for income taxes of $19.4 million primarily associated with the reversal of substantially all of the valuation allowance on the Company’s net deferred tax asset, which was originally recorded in the fourth quarter 2010.

Net interest margin declined 9 basis points from the second quarter 2013 to 3.83%, reflecting a reduction in loan yields resulting from the continued low interest rate environment.

Noninterest income declined $958 thousand from the second quarter 2013 primarily due to lower mortgage banking income, lower securities gains, and lower Trust income as a result of the previously announced transfer of the Company’s Trust business to a third party under a revenue sharing agreement effective June 28, 2013. These declines were offset by higher services charges on deposit accounts resulting from a tiered NSF fee schedule implemented in June.

Non-credit expenses declined $465 thousand from the second quarter 2013 primarily due to one-time expenses recorded in the second quarter related to the revised Trust business model and other headcount reductions. Third quarter 2013 personnel and other expenses also declined as a result of the change in the Trust business model, as well as a similar change in the Company’s Brokerage business model effective August 1, 2013.

Credit-related expenses declined to $1.2 million from $2.9 million in the second quarter 2013. The second quarter included a $1.7 million writedown related to a single real estate development included in foreclosed real estate.

Period end loans held for investment increased $15.5 million from June 30, 2013 and have increased $18.5 million since December 31, 2012 reflecting stronger commercial and retail loan originations, funding of existing loan commitments, and retaining a portion of Small Business Administration (“SBA”) and residential mortgage loan production on the balance sheet.

Nonperforming assets decreased $2.4 million during the third quarter to $22.7 million.

The allowance for loan losses coverage ratio declined to 2.21% of gross loans from 2.32% at June 30, 2013.

 

“During the third quarter, we once again achieved solid profitability, net loan growth, and improved asset quality,” said Samuel L. Erwin, Chief Executive Officer. “Our sustained profitability over the past five quarters and expectations for continued profitability going forward positioned us to reverse substantially all of the valuation allowance on our net deferred tax asset during the quarter. This significant accounting event is one of the final confirming events of our return to more normal operations since the challenges resulting from the Great Recession. We continue to be pleased with the results of our focused and persistent efforts to return to high performing status.”

 

 

 
 

 

 

 

The discussion of the Company’s results of operations and financial condition below is supplemented by the accompanying financial tables.

 

Net Interest Income

Net interest income and net interest margin declined $177 thousand and 9 basis points during the third quarter 2013 to $10.0 million and 3.83%, respectively, primarily due to a reduction in loan yields and fees.

 

The overall yield on the loan portfolio declined as higher-yielding loans matured and were replaced with new loan originations at lower rates in the current low interest rate environment.

 

The overall decline in loan yield was offset slightly by a decline in the average rate on interest bearing liabilities which declined 1 basis point during the third quarter.

 

The Company expects additional reductions in the cost of funds during the fourth quarter 2013 as $71 million of time deposits are scheduled to mature at an average rate of 2.06%.

 

The Federal Reserve continues to maintain interest rates near historically low levels. The sustained level of low interest rates has an overall negative impact on earning asset yields and makes improvement in our net interest income and margin challenging.

 

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income decreased $958 thousand from the second quarter 2013, primarily due to the following:

 

A decrease in securities gains of $375 thousand as the Company incurred a net loss on the sale of securities of $44 thousand during the third quarter 2013 versus a net gain on the sale of securities of $331 thousand during the second quarter 2013.

 

A decrease in mortgage banking income of $189 thousand due to lower pricing on loans sold. Recent increases in interest rates on mortgage loans may result in a reduction in mortgage loan production over the remainder of the year to the extent such interest rate increases are sustained.

 

A decrease in fees for trust, investment management and brokerage services of $691 thousand primarily due to the previously announced transfer of the Company’s Trust business to a third party under a revenue sharing agreement effective June 28, 2013. Under the revenue sharing agreement, the Company earns a percentage of the gross revenues related to the assets under management and no longer incurs the related personnel and other expenses for the Trust business. Prior to the transfer, the Company earned the gross revenues on the Trust assets under management and incurred the related personnel and other expenses.

 

An increase in services charges on deposit accounts of $259 thousand resulting primarily from a tiered NSF fee schedule implemented in June.

 

Noninterest Expense

Total noninterest expense decreased $2.1 million during the third quarter 2013, primarily due to the following:

 

A decrease of $1.6 million in credit-related expenses due to a $1.7 million writedown in the second quarter 2013 on a single real estate development included in foreclosed real estate based upon receipt of an updated appraisal.

 

A decrease of $347 thousand of one-time expenses recorded in the second quarter 2013 related to the revised Trust business model and other headcount reductions.

 

A decrease of $448 thousand in salaries and other personnel expense resulting primarily from the change in the Trust business model effective June 28, 2013 and conversion of the Company’s Brokerage platform to a different broker-dealer effective August 1, 2013. Prior to the Trust transition and the Brokerage platform conversion, the Company employed the Trust and Brokerage team members and incurred the related personnel expenses; subsequently, the Trust and Brokerage team members became employees of the third party firms and, as a result, the Company no longer incurs such expenses.

 

An increase of $244 thousand in the provision for unfunded commitments to lend.

 

The Company remains focused on strategic efficiency to address the increased regulatory compliance costs, revenue pressures on fee income and net interest margin challenges.

 

 

 
 

 

 

 

Benefit for Income Taxes and Valuation Allowance on Net Deferred Tax Asset

During the third quarter 2013, the Company reversed substantially all of its valuation allowance on its net deferred tax asset at June 30, 2013, resulting in a benefit for income taxes of $19.4 million.

 

Of the $30.5 million valuation allowance at June 30, 2013, the Company anticipates that it will be able to realize $22.0 million of the tax benefits against which the valuation allowance was originally established in the fourth quarter 2010 based on the past five quarters of profitability and expectations for future taxable income.

 

Of this amount, $21.0 million was reversed as a benefit for income taxes in the third quarter 2013.

 

Another $1.0 million is expected to be reversed during the fourth quarter 2013 based on intra-period tax allocation rules.

 

The remaining $8.5 million of valuation allowance was written-off against the related deferred tax asset during the third quarter 2013 as the Company determined that it is probable that these assets will expire without being utilized as a result of limitations on their deductibility resulting from the change in control that occurred upon consummation of the Company’s private placement of common stock in October 2010.

 

The benefit for income taxes for the third quarter 2013 also reflects a provision for estimated state income taxes since South Carolina tax law does not allow the use of net operating loss carryforwards as an offset to current period taxable income and the Federal alternative minimum tax.

 

Credit Quality

Nonperforming assets of $22.7 million at September 30, 2013 decreased $2.4 million during the third quarter as a result of continued problem asset resolution activities.

 

During the third quarter, the Company sold a $1.6 million nonaccrual loan.

 

Loans 90 days past due and still accruing interest increased $1.7 million. This balance is comprised of one loan that is well-secured, in the process of collection and is expected to be brought current by the end of the first quarter 2014.

 

The Company remains focused on aggressively resolving its few remaining problem assets, which have decreased 83% from the peak at March 31, 2010.

 

Net charge-offs were $1.2 million during the third quarter 2013 (0.62% of average loans, annualized), compared to $922 thousand (0.50% of average loans, annualized) during the second quarter 2013.

 

Past due loans were 0.63% of loans outstanding at September 30, 2013 compared to 0.40% at June 30, 2013.

 

The overall improvement in credit quality and reduced risk profile of the loan portfolio led to a reduction in the allowance for loan losses coverage ratio to 2.21% at September 30, 2013 compared to 2.32% at June 30, 2013.

 

Investment Securities and Trading Account Assets

The balance of investment securities available for sale declined $19.4 million during the third quarter 2013.

 

Proceeds from maturities, principal pay downs and sales were generally retained to fund loan growth and strategic reductions in time deposits.

 

At September 30, 2013 an after-tax net unrealized loss on the investment securities portfolio of $2.9 million was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. The net unrealized loss resulted from an increase in the level of longer-term interest rates that began during the second quarter 2013. The Company expects to receive the full principal amount of these securities if they are held to maturity.

 

The Company continues to evaluate the interest rate sensitivity of its investment securities portfolio in anticipation of continued rising interest rates. At September 30, 2013 the duration of the investment securities portfolio was 5.0 years.

 

During the third quarter 2013, the Company invested $5 million in a third party account that actively trades small and odd-lot municipal bonds. The investment is part of our strategy to generate alternative sources of income and to deploy excess liquidity pending sustained loan growth. The investment in this account was made in September 2013 and resulted in $41 thousand of income in the third quarter and $14 thousand of account management expenses.

 

 

 
 

 

 

 

Balance Sheet and Capital

Total assets were $1.1 billion at September 30, 2013 and increased $14.7 million during the third quarter primarily due to loan growth and the reduction in the valuation allowance on the net deferred tax asset.

 

The increase was partially offset by declines in cash and investment securities available for sale used to fund the growth in loans and further strategic reductions in time deposits.

 

The Company has been strategically reducing its time deposit balances to lower its costs of funds as part of its net interest margin management, particularly with respect to single-product clients that do not maintain other relationships with the Company.

 

Loans held for investment increased $15.5 million during the third quarter as the Company continued to experience stronger commercial and retail loan production. However, the economic environment continues to be sluggish, loan demand is uneven and the pricing on new loan originations remains extremely competitive.

 

The Company’s banking subsidiary, The Palmetto Bank, met all regulatory required minimum capital ratios and continued to be categorized as “well-capitalized” at September 30, 2013.

 

“Our results for the third quarter reflect our continued hard work navigating through the challenging economic environment,” continued Erwin. “We continue to enhance the type of and delivery channels for our products and services, invest in technology solutions, and expand our niche businesses. These strategic actions are being taken to both meet the evolving demands of the marketplace and to generate improving financial results for our shareholders.”
