TFS Financial Corporation Posts Strongest Annual Earnings Since 2005
Annual Net Income of $56 million Reflects Stronger Housing Market, Decrease in Loan Losses and Market Expansion
(Cleveland, OH - October 30, 2013) - TFS Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: TFSL) (the "Company"), the holding company for Third Federal Savings and Loan Association of Cleveland (the "Association"), today announced results for the three months and fiscal year ended September 30, 2013.
The Company reported net income of $15.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to net income of $1.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The increase in net income is largely the result of a lower provision for loan losses. Net income of $56.0 million was reported for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, compared to net income of $11.5 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. The increase in net income for the fiscal year is mainly the result of a lower provision for loan losses and increases in net interest income and gain on sale of loans, partially offset by an increase in non-interest expenses.
“We are pleased with the significant increase in our annual net income compared to last year,” said Chairman and CEO Marc A. Stefanski. “The housing market improved this year and charge-offs continue to decline. We continue to add new customers and grow our variable rate and shorter-term mortgages. We were happy to resume our stock repurchase program which helps fuel our confidence for the future.”
Lower interest rates on deposits, particularly on certificates of deposit, caused net interest income to increase $6.4 million, or 2%, to $268.6 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 from $262.2 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. To better manage funding costs, maturing higher rate certificates of deposits were replaced by other lower rate savings products or borrowed funds from the FHLB, as needed. The net interest income change for the current quarter was minimal compared to last year as net interest income for the three months ended September 30, 2013 decreased $0.2 million from the three months ended September 30, 2012. The interest rate spread increased 12 basis points in the current quarter to 2.24% compared to 2.12% in the same quarter last year. The interest rate spread for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 was 2.25% compared to 2.11% in the previous fiscal year. The net interest margin increased six basis points in the current quarter to 2.43% compared to 2.37% in the same quarter last year. The net interest margin for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 was 2.46% compared to 2.39% in the previous fiscal year.
The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $4.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to $29.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. The Company reported $8.0 million of net loan charge-offs for the three months ended September 30, 2013 compared to $35.9 million for the three months ended September 30, 2012. Of the $8.0 million of net charge-offs in the current quarter, $3.8 million occurred in the equity loans and lines of credit portfolio, $1.7 million occurred in the residential, non-Home Today portfolio and $2.4 million occurred in the Home Today portfolio. The Home Today portfolio, which has had minimal new originations since 2009, is an affordable housing program targeted toward low and moderate income home buyers, totaled $178.4 million at September 30, 2013 and $208.3 million at September 30, 2012. The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $37.0 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 compared to $102.0 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. The Company reported $44.9 million of net loan charge-offs for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013 compared to $158.5 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. Of the $44.9 million of net charge-offs for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, $18.6 million occurred in the equity loans and lines of credit portfolio, $14.7 million occurred in the residential, non-Home Today portfolio and $11.5 million occurred in the Home Today portfolio. Net charge-offs of $158.5 million for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012 included the impact of charging off, during that period, the Specific Valuation Allowance (SVA), which was $55.5 million at September 30, 2011 and $15.8 million of mostly performing loans as a result of implementing new regulatory guidance on Chapter 7 bankruptcies. The allowance for loan losses was $92.5 million, or 0.91% of total loans receivable, at September 30, 2013, compared to $100.5 million, or 0.97% of total loans receivable, at September 30, 2012.

Non-accrual loans decreased $26.8 million to $155.8 million, or 1.53% of total loans, at September 30, 2013 from $182.6 million, or 1.77% of total loans, at September 30, 2012. The $26.8 million decrease in non-accrual loans for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, consisted of a $14.7 million decrease in the residential, non-Home Today portfolio; a $6.3 million decrease in the Home Today portfolio; a $5.4 million decrease in the equity loans and lines of credit portfolio; and a $0.3 million decrease in construction loans.





Total loan delinquencies decreased $38.5 million to $134.0 million, or 1.31% of total loans receivable, at September 30, 2013 from $172.5 million, or 1.66% of total loans receivable, at September 30, 2012.
Total troubled debt restructurings decreased $19.7 million to $201.7 million at September 30, 2013 from $221.4 million at September 30, 2012. Of the $201.7 million of troubled debt restructurings recorded at September 30, 2013, $110.8 million was in the residential, non-Home Today portfolio, $70.0 million was in the Home Today portfolio and $20.7 million was in the equity loans and lines of credit portfolio. The portion of total troubled debt restructurings included as part of non-accrual loans was $84.9 million at September 30, 2013 and $86.9 million at September 30, 2012.
Total assets decreased $241.7 million, or 2%, to $11.28 billion at September 30, 2013 from $11.52 billion at September 30, 2012. This change was mainly the result of the combination of loan sales, principal repayments and net charge-offs exceeding new loan origination levels, partially offset by an increase in the combination of cash and cash equivalents and investment securities.
The combination of cash and cash equivalents and investment securities increased $33.7 million, or 5%, to $763.4 million at September 30, 2013 from $729.7 million at September 30, 2012, to maintain liquidity levels.
The combination of loans held for investment, net and mortgage loans held for sale decreased $261.3 million, or 3%, to $10.09 billion at September 30, 2013 from $10.35 billion at September 30, 2012. During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, loan sales of $349.2 million were completed, consisting of $72.4 million of fixed rate loans that qualified under Fannie Mae's Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP II), $148.7 million of fixed rate non-agency whole loans and $128.1 million of variable rate non-agency whole loans. Net gain on the sale of these loans was $8.3 million. Loan sales of $11.4 million were completed during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012, which generated a gain of $0.7 million. In spite of the increased loan sales mentioned above, residential non-Home Today mortgage loans, including those held for sale, increased $55.0 million during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013. The equity loans and lines of credit portfolio decreased by $297.1 million during that period. First mortgage loan originations were $2.19 billion for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013, of which 44% were adjustable rate mortgages and 26% were fixed rate mortgages with terms of 10 years or less, compared to 56% and 13%, respectively, for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2012. We continue to originate additional HARP II eligible loans for sale which had a balance of $4.2 million at September 30, 2013. We are in the process of implementing loan origination changes, which upon review and approval by Fannie Mae, will allow a portion of our future first mortgage loan originations to be eligible for securitization and sale as Fannie Mae mortgage backed securities.
Deposits decreased $516.9 million, or 6%, to $8.46 billion at September 30, 2013 from $8.98 billion at September 30, 2012. The decrease in deposits was the net result of a $31.7 million increase in our savings accounts, a $21.2 million increase in our checking accounts, and a $569.5 million decrease in our certificates of deposit ("CD") for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2013. To manage our cost of funds, maturing, higher rate CDs were replaced by other lower rate savings products or borrowed funds from the FHLB, as needed.
Borrowed funds increased $256.9 million, or 3%, to $745.1 million at September 30, 2013 from $488.2 million at September 30, 2012. This increase reflects additional mainly medium term (four to six years) advances of $320 million from the FHLB, partially offset by a $53 million reduction of overnight advances and other principal repayments.
Principal, interest and related escrow on loans serviced decreased $51.8 million, or 41%, to $75.7 million at September 30, 2013 from $127.5 million at September 30, 2012. This decrease reflects mainly the impact of a lower balance in the sold loan portfolio.
Total shareholders' equity increased $64.6 million, or 4%, to $1.87 billion at September 30, 2013 from $1.81 billion at September 30, 2012. Activity reflects $56.0 million of net income in the current fiscal year combined with adjustments related to our stock compensation plan, ESOP and accumulated other comprehensive loss.
Non-interest expense increased $6.6 million, or 4%, to $177.7 million for the year ended September 30, 2013 from $171.1 million for the year ended September 30, 2012. Increases in compensation and marketing were partially offset by decreases in federal insurance premium and assessments, real estate owned expenses and other operating expenses.
At September 30, 2013, all capital ratios substantially exceed the amounts required for the Association to be considered "well capitalized" for regulatory capital purposes. The tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 22.83% for the Association and 26.69% for the Company. Total risk-based capital was 24.08% for the Association and 27.94% for the Company.
Ralph Betters, the Chief Information Officer of the Association, has announced that he will be retiring from employment in January 2014. Anna Motta, who has been with the Association since 1989 and has served as the Manager of Retail Operations and Information Systems, will become the new Chief Information Officer. “Ralph has been an important contributor





to our success during the last 22 years. He has been a thought leader and mentor throughout the company,” said Chairman and CEO Marc A. Stefanski.  “On behalf of our Board, our management team and our associates, I thank him and wish him the best in his retirement. Because of Anna's wide range of experience with the Association, she is well-positioned for her new role.”
The Company will host a conference call to discuss its operating results for the three month and fiscal year periods ending September 30, 2013 at 10:00 a.m. (ET) on October 31, 2013. The toll-free dial-in number is 866-952-1908 Conference ID TFSLQ413. A telephone replay will be available beginning at 2:00 p.m. (ET) on October 31, 2013 by dialing 800-723-0394.
