NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)-continued

 

Recent accounting developments: In May 2014, FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. ASU 2014-09 implements a common revenue standard that clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue. The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. To achieve that core principle, an entity should apply the following steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. ASU 2014-09 was originally effective for the Company on January 1, 2017, however, FASB issued ASU 2015-14 which defers the effective date in order to provide additional time for both public and private entities to evaluate the impact. ASU 2014-09 will now be effective for the Company on January 1, 2018 and it is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In January 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-01, Financial Instruments – Overall. ASU 2016-01 makes targeted adjustments to GAAP by eliminating the AFS classification for equity securities and requiring equity investments to be measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognized in net income. The standard also requires public business entities to use the exit price notion when measuring fair value of financial instruments for disclosure purposes. The standard clarifies that an entity should evaluate the need for a valuation allowance on a deferred tax asset related to AFS securities in combination with the entity’s other deferred tax assets. It also requires an entity to present separately (within other comprehensive income) the portion of the total change in the fair value of a liability resulting from a change in the instrument-specific credit risk when the entity has elected to measure the liability at fair value in accordance with the fair value option for financial instruments. Additionally, the standard eliminates the requirement for public business entities to disclose the methods and significant assumptions used to estimate the fair value that is required to be disclosed for financial instruments measured at amortized cost on the balance sheet. ASU 2016-01 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of analyzing the impact of adoption.

 

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. Under ASU 2016-02, lessees will be required to recognize a lease liability measured on a discounted basis and a right-of-use asset for all leases (with the exception of short-term leases). Lessor accounting is largely unchanged under ASU 2016-02. However, the definition of initial direct costs was updated to include only initial direct costs that are considered incremental. This change in definition will change the manner in which the Company recognizes the costs associated with originating leases. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for all entities. The Company is in the process of analyzing the impact of adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation. ASU 2016-09 aims to simplify the accounting for companies that issue share-based payment awards to their employees. Simplification includes the income tax consequences, classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows of share-based payment awards. ASU 2016-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of analyzing the impact of adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses. Under the standard, assets measured at amortized costs (including loans, leases and AFS securities) will be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. Rather than the “incurred” model that is currently being utilized, the standard will require the use of a forward-looking approach to recognizing all expected credit losses at the beginning of an asset’s life. For public companies, ASU 2016-13 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Companies may choose to early adopt for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of analyzing the impact of adoption on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

At June 30, 2016, the investment portfolio included 447 securities. Of this number, 30 securities were in an unrealized loss position. The aggregate losses of these securities totaled less than 1% of the total amortized cost of the portfolio. Of these 30 securities, 17 securities had an unrealized loss for twelve months or more. All of the debt securities in unrealized loss positions are considered acceptable credit risks. Based upon an evaluation of the available evidence, including the recent changes in market rates, credit rating information and information obtained from regulatory filings, management believes the declines in fair value for these debt securities are temporary. In addition, the Company does not intend to sell these securities and it is not more-likely-than-not that the Company will be required to sell these debt securities before their anticipated recovery. At June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, equity securities represented less than 1% of the total portfolio.

 

The Company did not recognize OTTI on any debt or equity securities for the three or six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

Both general obligation and revenue bonds are diversified across many issuers. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the Company did not hold general obligation or revenue bonds of any single issuer, the aggregate book or market value of which exceeded 4% of the Company’s stockholders’ equity. Of the general obligation and revenue bonds in the Company’s portfolio, the majority are unrated bonds that represent small, private issuances. All unrated bonds were underwritten according to loan underwriting standards and have an average loan risk rating of 2, indicating very high quality. Additionally, many of these bonds are funding essential municipal services such as water, sewer, education, and medical facilities.

 

The Company’s municipal securities are owned by each of the three charters, whose investment policies set forth limits for various subcategories within the municipal securities portfolio. Each charter is monitored individually, and as of June 30, 2016, all were well within policy limitations approved by the board of directors. Policy limits are calculated as a percentage of total risk-based capital.

 

As of June 30, 2016, the Company’s standard monitoring of its municipal securities portfolio had not uncovered any facts or circumstances resulting in significantly different credit ratings than those assigned by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization, or in the case of unrated bonds, the rating assigned using the credit underwriting standards.

*Management performs an evaluation of the estimated unguaranteed residual values of leased assets on an annual basis, at a minimum. The evaluation consists of discussions with reputable and current vendors, which is combined with management’s expertise and understanding of the current states of particular industries to determine informal valuations of the equipment. As necessary and where available, management will utilize valuations by independent appraisers. The large majority of leases with residual values contain a lease options rider, which requires the lessee to pay the residual value directly, finance the payment of the residual value, or extend the lease term to pay the residual value. In these cases, the residual value is protected and the risk of loss is minimal. There were no losses related to residual values for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

 

**Includes residential real estate loans held for sale totaling $1,558,500 and $565,850 as of June 30, 2016, and December 31, 2015, respectively.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)-continued

 

For C&I and CRE loans, the Company’s credit quality indicator consists of internally assigned risk ratings. Each commercial loan is assigned a risk rating upon origination. The risk rating is reviewed every 15 months, at a minimum, and on an as-needed basis depending on the specific circumstances of the loan.

 

For direct financing leases, residential real estate loans, and installment and other consumer loans, the Company’s credit quality indicator is performance determined by delinquency status. Delinquency status is updated daily by the Company’s loan system.

 

For each class of financing receivable, the following presents the recorded investment by credit quality indicator as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

NOTE 4 BORROWINGS

 

During the first quarter of 2016, the Company extinguished $5.1 million of the QCR Holdings Capital Trust IV junior subordinated debentures (the full balance outstanding) and recorded a $1.2 million gain on extinguishment (pre-tax), as the Company was able to acquire the related security at a discount through auction. This gain is included in the statements of income within losses on debt extinguishment. The interest rate on these debentures floated at 3-month LIBOR plus 1.80% and had a rate of 2.42% at the time of extinguishment. QCR Holdings Capital Trust IV was dissolved after the extinguishment.

 

Also during the first quarter of 2016, the Company executed balance sheet restructuring strategies at QCBT and CRBT, which included the repayment of $10.0 million of wholesale structured repurchase agreements and $10.0 million of FHLB advances with a combined weighted average interest rate of 3.92%. As a result of this restructuring, the Company incurred $1.3 million (pre-tax) in losses on debt extinguishment that are included in the statements of income. The weighted average duration of this combined debt was 2.17 years, with $10.0 million maturing in 2017 and $10.0 maturing in 2018. This funding was replaced with short-term borrowings at an average interest rate of 0.50%.

 

As of December 31, 2015, the Company maintained a $40.0 million revolving line of credit note, with interest calculated at the effective LIBOR rate plus 2.50% per annum (3.10% at December 31, 2015). At December 31, 2015, the Company had not borrowed on this revolving credit note and had the full amount available. At the renewal date in June 2016, the note was amended to provide a $10.0 million revolving line of credit note and a $30.0 million term note commitment with a 5-year term. Interest on both facilities is calculated at the effective LIBOR rate plus 2.50% per annum (3.13% at June 30, 2016). At June 30, 2016, the Company had not borrowed on either of these facilities and had the full amounts available. Similar to the previous revolving note agreement, the amended agreement contains covenants that place restrictions on additional debt and stipulate minimum capital and various operating ratios.

NOTE 6 – FAIR VALUE

 

Accounting guidance on fair value measurement uses a hierarchy intended to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. This hierarchy includes three levels and is based upon the valuation techniques used to measure assets and liabilities. The three levels are as follows:

 

 

Level 1 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in markets;

 

Level 2 – Inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and

 

Level 3 – Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

 

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis comprise the following at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

There were no transfers of assets or liabilities between Levels 1, 2, and 3 of the fair value hierarchy for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 or 2015.

 

A small portion of the securities available for sale portfolio consists of common stock issued by various unrelated bank holding companies. The fair values used by the Company are obtained from an independent pricing service and represent quoted market prices for the identical securities (Level 1 inputs).

 

The remainder of the securities available for sale portfolio consists of securities whereby the Company obtains fair values from an independent pricing service. The fair values are determined by pricing models that consider observable market data, such as interest rate volatilities, LIBOR yield curve, credit spreads and prices from market makers and live trading systems (Level 2 inputs).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)-continued

 

Interest rate caps are used for the purpose of hedging interest rate risk. The fair values are determined by pricing models that consider observable market data for derivative instruments with similar structures (Level 2 inputs).

 

Interest rate swaps are executed for select commercial customers. The interest rate swaps are further described in Note 1 of the Company’s annual report filed on form 10-K as of December 31, 2015. The fair values are determined by comparing the contract rate on the swap with the then-current market rate for the remaining term of the transaction (Level 2 inputs).

 

Certain financial assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis; that is, the assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances (for example, when there is evidence of impairment).

 

Assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis comprise the following at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

Impaired loans/leases are evaluated and valued at the time the loan/lease is identified as impaired, at the lower of cost or fair value, and are classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.  Fair value is measured based on the value of the collateral securing these loans/leases.  Collateral may be real estate and/or business assets, including equipment, inventory and/or accounts receivable, and is determined based on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers hired by the Company.  Appraised and reported values are discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the client and client’s business.  

 

OREO in the table above consists of property acquired through foreclosures and settlements of loans.  Property acquired is carried at the estimated fair value of the property, less disposal costs, and is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. The estimated fair value of the property is determined based on appraisals by qualified licensed appraisers hired by the Company.  Appraised and reported values are discounted based on management’s historical knowledge, changes in market conditions from the time of valuation, and/or management’s expertise and knowledge of the property.

NOTE 7 – BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

 

Selected financial and descriptive information is required to be disclosed for reportable operating segments, applying a “management perspective” as the basis for identifying reportable segments. The management perspective is determined by the view that management takes of the segments within the Company when making operating decisions, allocating resources, and measuring performance. The segments of the Company have been defined by the structure of the Company’s internal organization, focusing on the financial information that the Company’s operating decision-makers routinely use to make decisions about operating matters.

 

The Company’s primary segment, Commercial Banking, is geographically divided by markets into the secondary segments comprised of the three subsidiary banks wholly owned by the Company: QCBT, CRBT, and RB&T. Each of these secondary segments offers similar products and services, but is managed separately due to different pricing, product demand, and consumer markets. Each offers commercial, consumer, and mortgage loans and deposit services.

 

The Company’s Wealth Management segment represents the trust and asset management and investment management and advisory services offered at the Company’s three subsidiary banks in aggregate. This segment generates income primarily from fees charged based on assets under administration for corporate and personal trusts, custodial services, and investments managed. No assets of the subsidiary banks have been allocated to the Wealth Management segment.

 

The Company’s All Other segment includes the operations of all other consolidated subsidiaries and/or defined operating segments that fall below the segment reporting thresholds. This segment includes the corporate operations of the parent company.

NOTE 8 – REGULATORY CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS

 

The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the subsidiary banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company and subsidiary banks’ financial statements.

 

Under capital adequacy guidelines and the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Company and the subsidiary banks must meet specific capital guidelines that involve quantitative measures of their assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The capital amounts and classification are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors. Quantitative measures established by regulation to ensure capital adequacy require the Company and the subsidiary banks to maintain minimum amounts and ratios (set forth in the following table) of total common equity Tier 1 and Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and of Tier 1 capital to average assets, each as defined by regulation. Management believes, as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, that the Company and the subsidiary banks met all capital adequacy requirements to which they are subject.

 

Under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, to be categorized as “well capitalized,” an institution must maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, Tier 1 leverage and common equity Tier 1 ratios as set forth in the following tables. The Company and the subsidiary banks’ actual capital amounts and ratios as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015 are also presented in the following table (dollars in thousands). As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, each of the subsidiary banks met the requirements to be “well capitalized”.

NOTE 9 – ACQUISITION OF COMMUNITY STATE BANK AND COMMON STOCK OFFERING

 

On May 23, 2016, the Company announced the signing of a definitive agreement to acquire CSB, headquartered in Ankeny, Iowa, from Van Diest Investment Company. CSB is an Iowa-chartered bank that operates ten banking locations throughout the Des Moines metropolitan area. As of June 30, 2016, CSB had $571 million in assets, $433 million in loans and $481 million in deposits.

 

In the acquisition, the Company will acquire from Van Diest Investment Company 100% of the outstanding common stock of CSB for cash consideration of $80 million. The transaction is subject to certain customary closing conditions and is expected to close during the third quarter of 2016. The Company intends to maintain CSB as an independent banking charter.

 

In connection with the planned acquisition, during the second quarter the Company sold 1,215,000 shares of its common stock at a price of $24.75 per share, for approximate gross proceeds of $30 million, before deducting anticipated expenses. The shares were offered to institutional investors in a registered direct offering conducted without an underwriter or placement agent. The offering was a take-down of a previously filed shelf registration and closed on May 23, 2016.

 

Cash received from the common stock offering will be used to help finance the purchase price of the pending acquisition. Additionally, the Company plans to draw approximately $5 million on its $10 million revolving line of credit and fully fund the $30 million term facility it has available. Both of these facilities are described further in Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Cash dividends of approximately $15 million from QCBT and CRBT will be used to finance the remainder of the purchase price.

 

During the second quarter of 2016, the Company incurred $355 thousand of expenses related to the planned acquisition, comprised primarily of legal and investment banking costs.

LONG-TERM FINANCIAL GOALS

 

As previously stated, the Company has established certain financial goals by which it manages its business and measures its performance. The goals are periodically updated to reflect changes in business developments. While the Company is determined to work prudently to achieve these goals, there is no assurance that they will be met. Moreover, the Company’s ability to achieve these goals will be affected by the factors discussed under “Forward Looking Statements” as well as the factors detailed in the “Risk Factors” section included under Item 1A. of Part I of the Company’s Form 10-K. The Company’s long-term financial goals are as follows:

 

 

Improve balance sheet efficiency by targeting a gross loans and leases to total assets ratio in the range of 70 – 75%;

 

 

Improve profitability (measured by NIM and ROAA);

 

 

Continue to improve asset quality by reducing NPAs to total assets to below 0.75% and maintain charge-offs as a percentage of average loans/leases of under 0.25% annually;

 

 

Reduce reliance on wholesale funding to less than 15% of total assets;

 

 

Grow noninterest bearing deposits to more than 30% of total assets;

 

 

Increase the commercial lease portfolio so that it represents 10% of total assets;

 

 

Grow gains on sales of government guaranteed portions of loans and swap fee income to more than $4 million annually; and

 

 

Grow wealth management segment net income by 15% annually.

STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENTS

 

The Company took the following actions to support its corporate strategy and the long-term financial goals shown above.

 

 

Loan and lease growth year-to-date was 6.9%, or an annualized rate of 13.9%. This exceeded the Company’s target organic growth rate of 10-12%. A majority of this growth was in the C&I and CRE loan categories. This loan and lease growth has continued to help move the loan and lease to total asset ratio upward to 72%, from 71% in the prior quarter and 67% a year ago.

 

 

The Company intends to participate as an acquirer in the consolidation taking place in our markets to further boost ROAA and improve the Company’s efficiency ratio. In the second quarter of 2016, the Company announced the acquisition of Community State Bank, headquartered in Ankeny, Iowa. Refer to Note 9 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for more details.

 

 

The Company continued to focus on reducing the NPAs to total assets ratio and decreased this ratio from 0.74% at December 31, 2015 to 0.70% at June 30, 2016. Although NPAs remained relatively flat from the prior quarter, the Company remains committed to further improving asset quality ratios in 2016.

 

 

Management continued to focus on reducing the Company’s reliance on wholesale funding. The modest restructuring executed in the first quarter of 2016 (as described in Note 4 of the Consolidated Financial Statements) has further reduced the Company’s reliance on long-term wholesale funding. In the second quarter of 2016, the Company utilized overnight FHLB advances as a cost-effective alternative funding source. Management continues to closely evaluate opportunities for continued reduction in wholesale funding.

Item 2

 

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – continued

 

 

Correspondent banking continues to be a core line of business for the Company. The Company is competitively positioned with experienced staff, software systems and processes to continue growing in the three states currently served – Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin. The Company acts as the correspondent bank for 176 downstream banks with average total noninterest bearing deposits of $299.8 million during the second quarter of 2016. This line of business provides a strong source of noninterest bearing deposits, fee income and high-quality loan participations.

 

 

The Company provides commercial leasing services through its wholly-owned subsidiary, m2 Lease Funds, which has lease specialists in Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Colorado, Texas and Pennsylvania. Historically, this portfolio has been high yielding, with an average gross yield in 2016 approximating 8.2%. This portfolio has also shown strong asset quality throughout its history.

 

 

SBA and USDA lending is a specialty lending area on which the Company has focused. Once these loans are originated, the government-guaranteed portion of the loan can be sold to the secondary market for premiums. The Company intends to make this a more significant and consistent source of noninterest income.

 

 

As a result of the historically low interest rate environment, the Company is focused on executing interest rate swaps on select commercial loans. The interest rate swaps allow the commercial borrowers to pay a fixed interest rate while the Company receives a variable interest rate as well as an upfront fee dependent on the pricing. Management believes that these swaps help position the Company more favorably for rising rate environments. The Company will continue to review opportunities to execute these swaps at all of its subsidiary banks, as the circumstances are appropriate for the borrower and the Company.

 

 

Wealth management is another core line of business for the Company and includes a full range of products, including trust services, brokerage and investment advisory services, asset management, estate planning and financial planning. As of June 30, 2016 the Company had $1.76 billion of total financial assets in trust (and related) accounts and $702 million of total financial assets in brokerage (and related) accounts. Continued growth in assets under management will help to drive trust and investment advisory fees. The Company offers trust and investment advisory services to the correspondent banks that it serves. As management focuses on growing fee income, expanding market share will continue to be a primary strategy.

GAAP TO NON-GAAP RECONCILIATIONS

 

The following table presents certain non-GAAP financial measures related to the “tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio”, “core net income”, “core net income attributable to QCR Holdings, Inc. common stockholders”, “core earnings per common share” and “core return on average assets”. The table also reconciles the GAAP performance measures to the corresponding non-GAAP measures.

 

The tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio has been a focus for investors and management believes that this ratio may assist investors in analyzing the Company’s capital position without regard to the effects of intangible assets.

 

The table below also includes several “core” measurements of financial performance. The Company's management believes that these measures are important to investors as they exclude non-recurring income and expense items; therefore, they provide a better comparison for analysis and may provide a better indicator of future run-rates.

 

Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by investors to evaluate a company, they have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for analyses of results as reported under GAAP.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – continued

 

NET INTEREST INCOME - (TAX EQUIVALENT BASIS)

 

Net interest income, on a tax equivalent basis, increased 14% to $22.4 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, compared to the same quarter of the prior year. For the six months ended June 30, 2016, net interest income, on a tax equivalent basis, increased 15% to $44.3 million, compared to the same period of 2015. Net interest income improved due to several factors:

 

 

The Company’s strategy to redeploy funds from the taxable securities portfolio into higher yielding loans and leases;

 

Organic loan and lease growth has been strong over the past twelve months, as evidenced by average gross loan/lease growth of 13% in that period; and

 

The Company’s balance sheet restructuring and deleveraging strategy executed throughout 2015 and the first quarter of 2016.

 

A comparison of yields, spread and margin from the second quarter of 2016 to the second quarter of 2015 is as follows (on a tax equivalent basis):

 

The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 16 basis points.

 

The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 15 basis points.

 

The net interest spread increased 31 basis points from 3.08% to 3.39%.

 

The NIM improved 29 basis points from 3.33% to 3.62%.

 

A comparison of yields, spread and margin from the first half of 2016 to the first half of 2015 is as follows (on a tax equivalent basis):

 

The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 13 basis points.

 

The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities decreased 21 basis points.

 

The net interest spread increased 34 basis points from 3.04% to 3.38%.

 

The NIM improved 32 basis points from 3.29% to 3.61%.

 

The Company’s management closely monitors and manages NIM. From a profitability standpoint, an important challenge for the Company’s subsidiary banks and leasing company is the improvement of their NIM. Management continually addresses this issue with pricing and other balance sheet management strategies.

 

The Company continues to place an emphasis on shifting its balance sheet mix. With a stated goal of increasing loans/leases as a percentage of assets to a range of 70-75%, the Company funded its loan/lease growth with a mixture of short-term borrowings and cash from the investment securities portfolio. Cash from called securities and the targeted sales of securities was redeployed into the loan portfolio, resulting in a significant increase in yield, while minimizing any extension of duration. Additionally, the Company has recognized net gains on these sales due to the current rate environment. As rates rise, the Company should also have less market volatility in the investment securities portfolio, as this becomes a smaller portion of the balance sheet.

 

The Company continues to monitor and evaluate both prepayment and debt restructuring opportunities within the wholesale funding portion of the balance sheet, as executing on such a strategy could potentially increase NIM more quickly than holding the debt until maturity.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – continued

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

The Company’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The financial information contained within these statements is, to a significant extent, financial information that is based on approximate measures of the financial effects of transactions and events that have already occurred. Certain critical accounting policies are described below.

 

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES

 

Based on its consideration of accounting policies that involve the most complex and subjective decisions and assessments, management has identified its most critical accounting policy to be that related to the allowance.

 

The Company’s allowance methodology incorporates a variety of risk considerations, both quantitative and qualitative, in establishing an allowance that management believes is appropriate at each reporting date. Quantitative factors include the Company’s historical loss experience, delinquency and charge-off trends, collateral values, changes in NPLs, and other factors. Quantitative factors also incorporate known information about individual loans/leases, including borrowers’ sensitivity to interest rate movements.

 

Qualitative factors include the general economic environment in the Company’s markets, including economic conditions throughout the Midwest, and in particular, the state of certain industries. Size and complexity of individual credits in relation to loan/lease structures, existing loan/lease policies and pace of portfolio growth are other qualitative factors that are considered in the methodology.

 

Management may report a materially different amount for the provision in the statement of income to change the allowance if its assessment of the above factors were different. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and the accompanying notes presented elsewhere herein, as well as the section entitled “Financial Condition” of this Management’s Discussion and Analysis that discusses the allowance.

 

Although management believes the level of the allowance as of June 30, 2016 was adequate to absorb losses in the loan/lease portfolio, a decline in local economic conditions, or other factors, could result in increasing losses that cannot be reasonably predicted at this time.

 

OTHER–THAN-TEMPORARY IMPAIRMENT

 

The Company’s assessment of OTTI of its investment securities portfolio is another critical accounting policy due to the level of judgment required by management. Investment securities are evaluated to determine whether declines in fair value below their cost are other-than-temporary.

 

In estimating OTTI losses, management considers a number of factors including, but not limited to, (1) the length of time and extent to which the fair value has been less than amortized cost, (2) the financial condition and near-term prospects of the issuer, (3) the current market conditions, and (4) the Company’s lack of intent to sell the security prior to recovery and whether it is not more-likely-than-not that the Company will be required to sell the security prior to recovery. The discussion regarding the Company’s assessment of OTTI should be read in conjunction with the Company’s financial statements and the accompanying notes presented elsewhere herein.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

INTEREST INCOME

 

Interest income increased 8%, comparing the second quarter of 2016 to the same period of 2015 and comparing the first half of 2016 to the same period of 2015.

 

A portion of this growth was the result of the Company’s strategy to redeploy funds from the securities portfolio into higher yielding loans and leases. In addition, organic loan and lease growth has been strong over the past twelve months.

 

Overall, the Company’s average earning assets increased 5%, comparing the second quarter of 2016 to the second quarter of 2015. During the same time period, average gross loans and leases increased 13%, while average investment securities decreased 17%.

 

The securities portfolio yield continued to increase (from 3.00% for the second quarter of 2015 to 3.64% for the second quarter of 2016) as the Company continued to sell low-yielding investments taking advantage of favorable market opportunities. Call activity picked up in the second quarter of 2016, resulting in the call of some lower-yielding callable agency securities. Additionally, the Company continued to take actions to diversify its securities portfolio, including increasing its portfolio of tax-exempt municipal securities, in an effort to increase tax equivalent interest income without additional income tax expense.

 

The Company intends to continue to grow quality loans and leases as well as diversify its securities portfolio to maximize yield while minimizing credit and interest rate risk.

 

INTEREST EXPENSE

 

Interest expense for the second quarter of 2016 decreased 18% from the second quarter of 2015. For the first six months of 2016, interest expense decreased 24% compared to the first six months of 2015. The Company has been successful in maintaining pricing discipline on deposits and decreasing the cost of borrowings, which has more than offset the growth impact and contributed to the net decline in interest expense.

 

Management has placed a strong focus on reducing the reliance on long-term wholesale funding as it tends to be higher cost than deposits. In the second quarter of 2015, the Company executed a balance sheet restructuring that is saving approximately $4.2 million of interest expense annually. Continued balance sheet restructurings in the fourth quarter of 2015 and first quarter of 2016 (refer to Note 4 of the Consolidated Financial Statements) have further reduced interest expense. Refer to Note 12 in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 for additional details.

 

The Company’s management intends to continue to shift the mix of funding from wholesale funds to core deposits, including noninterest-bearing deposits. Continuing this trend is expected to strengthen the Company’s franchise value, reduce funding costs, and increase fee income opportunities through deposit service charges.

PROVISION FOR LOAN/LEASE LOSSES

 

The provision is established based on a number of factors, including the Company’s historical loss experience, delinquencies and charge-off trends, the local and national economy and risk associated with the loans/leases in the portfolio as described in more detail in the “Critical Accounting Policies” section.

 

The Company’s provision totaled $1.2 million for the second quarter of 2016, which was down $1.2 million, or 49%, from the same quarter of the prior year. Provision for the first half of the year totaled $3.3 million, which was down $788 thousand, or 19%, compared to the first half of 2015. The decrease in provision expense was primarily due to stronger asset quality in recent periods.

 

The Company had net charge-offs of $496 thousand for the second quarter of 2016 which, when coupled with the provision of $1.2 million, increased the Company’s allowance to $28.1 million at June 30, 2016. As of June 30, 2016, the Company’s allowance to total loans/leases was 1.46%, which was flat from 1.46%at March 31, 2016 and down from 1.52% at June 30, 2015, respectively.

 

A more detailed discussion of the Company’s allowance can be found in the “Financial Condition” section of this report.

In recent years, the Company has been successful in expanding its wealth management customer base, which has helped drive increases in fee income. While trust department fees continue to be a significant contributor to noninterest income, due to poor market conditions early in 2016, coupled with a large amount of distributions to clients and beneficiaries, trust department fees were flat compared to the first quarter of 2016. Trust department fees decreased 2% when comparing the first half of 2016 to the same period of the prior year. Income is generated primarily from fees charged based on assets under administration for corporate and personal trusts and for custodial services. The majority of the trust department fees are determined based on the value of the investments within the fully managed trusts. Additionally, the Company recently started offering trust operations services to correspondent banks. Fees are expected to grow in light of this new offering.

Item 2

 

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – continued

 

Management has placed a strong emphasis on growing its investment advisory and management services. Part of this initiative has been to restructure the Company’s Wealth Management Division to allow for more efficient delivery of products and services through selective additions of talent as well as leverage of and collaboration among existing resources (including the aforementioned trust department). Similar to trust department fees, these fees are largely determined based on the value of the investments managed. And, similar to the trust department, the Company has had some success in expanding its customer base. However, due to poor market conditions early in 2016, investment advisory fees decreased 9% from the second quarter of 2015 to the second quarter of 2016 and they decreased 8% when comparing the first half of 2015 to the first half of 2016.

 

Deposit service fees expanded 2%, comparing the second quarter of 2016 to the same period in 2015 and expanded 3% when comparing the first half of 2016 to the same period of the prior year. The Company continues its emphasis on shifting the mix of deposits from brokered and retail time deposits to non-maturity demand deposits across all its markets. With this shift in mix, the Company has increased the number of demand deposit accounts, which tend to be lower in interest cost and higher in service fees. The Company plans to continue this shift in mix and to further focus on growing deposit service fees.

 

Gains on sales of residential real estate loans decreased 12%, comparing the second quarter of 2016 to the second quarter of 2015 and decreased 20% when comparing the first half of 2016 to the same period of the prior year. With the sustained historically low interest rate environment, refinancing activity has slowed, as many of the Company’s existing and prospective customers have already executed a refinancing. Therefore, this area has become a much smaller contributor to overall noninterest income.

 

The Company’s gains on the sale of government-guaranteed portions of loans for the second quarter and first six months of 2016 were up significantly, compared to the same periods of 2015, due to the strong demand for these types of loans in 2016. As one of its core strategies, the Company continues to leverage its expertise by taking advantage of programs offered by the SBA and the USDA. The Company’s portfolio of government-guaranteed loans has grown as a direct result of the Company’s strong expertise in SBA and USDA lending. In some cases, it is more beneficial for the Company to sell the government-guaranteed portion on the secondary market for a premium rather than retain the loans in the Company’s portfolio. Sales activity for government-guaranteed portions of loans tends to fluctuate depending on the demand for loans that fit the criteria for the government guarantee. Further, the size of the transactions can vary and, as the gain is determined as a percentage of the guaranteed amount, the resulting gain on sale can vary. Lastly, a strategy for improved pricing is packaging loans together for sale. From time to time, the Company may execute on this strategy, which may delay the gains on sales of some loans to achieve better pricing. The Company has added additional talent and is executing on strategies in an effort to make this a more consistent and larger source of revenue. The pipelines for SBA and USDA lending are strong, and management believes that the Company will continue to post solid numbers in this category.

 

As a result of the sustained historically low interest rate environment, the Company was able to execute several interest rate swaps on select commercial loans. The interest rate swaps allow the commercial borrowers to pay a fixed interest rate while the Company receives a variable interest rate as well as an upfront fee dependent upon the pricing. Management believes that these swaps help position the Company more favorably for rising rate environments. Management will continue to review opportunities to execute these swaps at all of its subsidiary banks, as the circumstances are appropriate for the borrower and the Company. Swap fee income totaled $168 thousand in second quarter of 2016, as compared to $394 thousand in second quarter of 2015. Swap fee income totaled $1.0 million for the first half of 2016, compared to $1.1 million in the first half of 2015. Future levels of swap fee income are dependent upon prevailing interest rates.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

Securities gains were $18 thousand for the second quarter of 2016. There were no gains recognized in the second quarter of 2015. Securities gains totaled $377 thousand for the first six months of 2016, compared to $417 thousand for the first six months of 2015. The Company took advantage of market opportunities by selling approximately $5.5 million of investments that were low-yielding during the quarter ended June 30, 2016 and $61.1 million for the first six months of 2016. Proceeds were then used to purchase higher-yielding tax-exempt municipal bonds with a modest duration extension and to fund loan and lease growth.

 

Earnings on BOLI increased 11% from the second quarter of 2015 to the second quarter of 2016 and decreased 4% comparing the first half of 2015 to the first half of 2016. There were no purchases of BOLI within the last twelve months. Notably, a small portion of the Company’s BOLI is variable in nature whereby the returns are determined by the performance of the equity market. The poor market performance in the first half of 2016 contributed to the decrease in earnings on BOLI year-to-date. Management intends to continue to review its BOLI investments to be consistent with policy and regulatory limits in conjunction with the rest of its earning assets in an effort to maximize returns while minimizing risk.

 

Debit card fees are the interchange fees paid on certain debit card customer transactions. Debit card fees increased 35% comparing the second quarter of 2016 to the second quarter of 2015 and increased 32% comparing the first half of 2016 to the first half of 2015. These fees can vary based on customer debit card usage, so fluctuations from period to period may occur. As an opportunity to maximize fees, the Company offers a deposit product with a modestly increased interest rate that incentivizes debit card activity.

 

Correspondent banking fees decreased 14%, comparing the second quarter of 2016 to the second quarter of 2015 and decreased 10% when comparing the first half of 2016 to the first half of 2015. As correspondent bank deposit balances rise, they receive a higher earnings credit, which then reduces the direct fees that the Company receives. There was an earnings credit rate increase implemented in the first quarter of 2016. Correspondent banking continues to be a core strategy for the Company, as this line of business provides a high level of noninterest bearing deposits that can be used to fund loan growth as well as a steady source of fee income.    The Company now serves approximately 176 banks in Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – continued

 

Salaries and employee benefits, which is the largest component of noninterest expense, decreased from the second quarter of 2015 to the second quarter of 2016 by 2%. This line item also decreased 2% when comparing the first half of 2016 to the first half of 2015. This was primarily due to the acquisition of the noncontrolling interest in m2 in 2015, thus eliminating the related salary expense. This amount represented the former minority owner’s 20% interest in the earnings of m2, as further described in Note 23 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015. Additionally, management focused on taking steps to reduce salary and employee benefits expense during the last half of 2015 and the first half of 2016, consistent with the Company’s stated goal of carefully managing noninterest expense growth.

 

Occupancy and equipment expense increased slightly, comparing the second quarter of 2016 to the same period of the prior year and comparing the first half of 2016 to the same period of the prior year. The increased expense was mostly due to higher service contract-related expenses.

 

Professional and data processing fees increased 5%, comparing the second quarter of 2016 to the same period in 2015 and increased 2% comparing the first half of 2016 to the same period in 2015. Generally, professional and data processing fees can fluctuate depending on certain one-time project costs. Management will continue to focus on minimizing such one-time costs and driving recurring costs down through contract renegotiation or managed reduction in activity where costs are determined on a usage basis.    

 

Acquisition costs for the second quarter of 2016 and for the first half of 2016 total $355 thousand. These costs are related to the planned acquisition of Community State Bank, as described in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

FDIC and other insurance expense decreased 11%, comparing the second quarter of 2016 to the second quarter of 2015, and decreased 11% comparing the first half of 2016 to the same period of 2015. The decrease in expense was due to a decrease in the assessment rate designated by the FDIC.

 

Loan/lease expense decreased 26%, comparing the second quarter of 2016 to the same quarter of 2015 and decreased 38% when comparing the first half of 2016 to the same period of 2015. The Company incurred elevated levels of expense during 2015 for certain existing NPLs in connection with the work-out of these loans. Generally, loan/lease expense has a direct relationship with the level of NPLs; however, it may deviate depending upon the individual NPLs.

 

Net cost of operations of other real estate includes gains/losses on the sale of OREO, write-downs of OREO and all income/expenses associated with OREO. Net costs of operations of other real estate totaled $278 thousand for the second quarter of 2016, compared to ($48) thousand for the second quarter of 2015. Net costs of operations of other real estate totaled $380 thousand for the first six months of 2016, compared to $29 thousand for the first six months of 2015.

 

Bank service charges, a large portion of which includes indirect costs incurred to provide services to QCBT’s correspondent banking customer portfolio, increased 15% from the second quarter of 2015 to the second quarter of 2016 and increased 19% from the first half of 2015 to the first half of 2016. The increase was due, in large part, to the success QCBT has had in growing its correspondent banking customer portfolio. As transactions volumes continue to increase and the number of correspondent banking clients increases, the associated expenses will also increase. This may not directly correlate to correspondent banking balances, as quarter-end balances can fluctuate.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – continued

 

In the first half of 2016, the Company incurred $83 thousand of losses on debt extinguishment, net. This amount included $1.3 million of losses related to the prepayment of certain FHLB advances and whole structured repurchase agreements, as well as a $1.2 million gain recognized through the repurchase of trust preferred securities. For further details, please refer to Note 4 of the Consolidated Financial Statements. In the first half of 2015, the Company incurred $6.9 million of losses on debt extinguishment, net, due to the prepayment of certain FHLB advances and structured repurchase agreements, as described in detail within Note 12 of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.

 

Correspondent banking expense was up 10% when comparing the second quarter of 2016 to the second quarter of 2015 and up 5% when comparing the first six months of 2016 to the same period of 2015. These are direct costs incurred to provide services to QCBT’s correspondent banking customer portfolio, including safekeeping and cash management services.

 

INCOME TAXES

 

In the second quarter of 2016, the Company incurred income tax expense of $2.2 million. For the first half of the year, the Company incurred income tax expense of $4.2 million. Following is a reconciliation of the expected income tax expense to the income tax expense included in the consolidated statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015.

The effective tax for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 was 24.4% which was an increase over the effective tax rate of 79% for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2016 was 24.2%, which was an increase over the effective tax rate of (41.0%) for the six months ended June 30, 2015. The increase in pre-tax income was derived from a larger portion of taxable income which drove the increase in the effective tax rate. The Company’s tax-exempt income sources include interest income from tax-exempt municipal bonds and loans as well as earnings on BOLI. Tax-exempt income grew over the past year; however, the growth in taxable income far outpaced the growth in non-taxable income. In 2015, the Company had more nontaxable income and deductible expenses (including $6.9 million of losses on debt extinguishment, net) than taxable income, which led to tax benefits in both periods presented above.

During the second quarter of 2016, the Company’s total assets increased $42.8 million, or 2%, to a total of $2.7 billion, while total gross loans and leases grew $48.2 million, or 3%. The loan and lease growth was funded primarily by called securities and short-term borrowings. Deposits decreased $16.0 million, or 1%, during the quarter. Borrowings increased $34.0 million (mostly overnight FHLB advances) in the second quarter to $381.9 million. Stockholders’ equity increased $40.0 million, or 17%, in the current quarter due to net income, as well as the common stock offering described in Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

INVESTMENT SECURITIES 

 

The composition of the Company’s securities portfolio is managed to meet liquidity needs while prioritizing the impact on interest rate risk and maximizing return, while minimizing credit risk. The Company has further diversified the portfolio by decreasing U.S government sponsored agency securities, while increasing residential mortgage-backed securities and tax-exempt municipal securities. Of the latter, the large majority are privately placed tax-exempt debt issuances by municipalities located in the Midwest (with some in or near the Company’s existing markets) and require a thorough underwriting process before investment. Additionally, management will continue to diversify the portfolio with further growth strictly dictated by the pace of growth in deposits and loans.

As a result of fluctuations in longer-term interest rates, the fair value of the Company’s securities portfolio went from a net unrealized gain position of 1.05% of amortized cost at March 31, 2016 to a net unrealized gain position of 1.95% of amortized cost at June 30, 2016. Management performs an evaluation of the portfolio quarterly to understand the current market value as well as projections of market value in a variety of rising and falling interest rate scenarios. In addition, management has evaluated those securities with an unrealized loss position to determine whether the loss is derived from credit deterioration or the movement in interest rates. The evaluation determined that there were no securities in the portfolio with OTTI. See the “Critical Accounting Policies” section of this report for further discussion of this evaluation.

 

The duration of the securities portfolio has stayed relatively flat over the past several quarters. Duration was extended from the strong growth in longer term fixed rate municipal securities, but was mostly offset by the duration shortening of agency and mortgage-backed securities portfolios resulting from targeted sales of longer duration investments and as the remaining agency portfolio rolled closer to maturities or call dates.

 

The Company has not invested in commercial mortgage-backed securities or pooled trust preferred securities. Additionally, the Company has not invested in the types of securities subject to the Volcker Rule (a provision of the Dodd-Frank Act).

As CRE loans have historically been the Company’s largest portfolio segment, management places a strong emphasis on monitoring the composition of the Company’s CRE loan portfolio. For example, management tracks the level of owner-occupied CRE loans relative to non owner-occupied loans. Owner-occupied loans are generally considered to have less risk. As of June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively, approximately 33% and 34% of the CRE loan portfolio was owner-occupied.

 

Over the past several quarters, the Company has been successful in shifting the mix of its commercial loan portfolio by adding more C&I loans. C&I loans grew $99.4 million, or 16% over the past twelve months, which increased its percentage to total loans/leases from 36% to 37%.

The Company’s residential real estate loan portfolio consists of the following:

 

 

Certain loans that do not meet the criteria for sale into the secondary market. These are often structured as adjustable rate mortgages with maturities ranging from three to seven years to avoid the long-term interest rate risk.

 

A limited amount of 15-year fixed rate residential real estate loans that meet certain credit guidelines.

 

The remaining residential real estate loans originated by the Company were sold on the secondary market to avoid the interest rate risk associated with longer term fixed rate loans. Loans originated for this purpose were classified as held for sale and are included in the residential real estate loans above. In addition, the Company has not originated any subprime, Alt-A, no documentation, or stated income residential real estate loans throughout its history.

The allowance was determined based on factors that included the overall composition of the loan/lease portfolio, types of loans/leases, past loss experience, loan/lease delinquencies, potential substandard and doubtful credits, economic conditions, collateral positions, governmental guarantees and other factors that, in management’s judgment, deserved evaluation. To ensure that an adequate allowance was maintained, provisions were made based on a number of factors, including the increase in loans/leases and a detailed analysis of the loan/lease portfolio. The loan/lease portfolio is reviewed and analyzed monthly with specific detailed reviews completed on all loans risk-rated worse than “fair quality” and carrying aggregate exposure in excess of $250 thousand. The adequacy of the allowance is monitored by the loan review staff and reported to management and the board of directors.

 

The Company’s levels of criticized and classified loans are reported in the following table.

* Amounts above include the government guaranteed portion, if any. For the calculation of allowance, the Company assigns internal risk ratings of Pass (Rating 2) for the government guaranteed portion.

** Criticized loans are defined as commercial and industrial and commercial real estate loans with internally assigned risk ratings of 6, 7, or 8, regardless of performance.

*** Classified loans are defined as commercial and industrial and commercial real estate loans with internally assigned risk ratings of 7 or 8, regardless of performance.

 

The Company experienced an increase in classified loans during the first half of 2016, while criticized loans decreased during this same period. The increase in classified loans during the first half of 2016 was primarily due to a limited number of relationship downgrades. The Company continues its strong focus on improving credit quality in an effort to limit NPLs.

The following table summarizes the trend in the allowance as a percentage of gross loans/leases and as a percentage of NPLs.

*NPLs consist of nonaccrual loans/leases, accruing loans/leases past due 90 days or more, and accruing TDRs.

 

Although management believes that the allowance at June 30, 2016 was at a level adequate to absorb losses on existing loans/leases, there can be no assurance that such losses will not exceed the estimated amounts or that the Company will not be required to make additional provisions in the future. Unpredictable future events could adversely affect cash flows for both commercial and individual borrowers, which could cause the Company to experience increases in problem assets, delinquencies and losses on loans/leases, and require further increases in the provision. Asset quality is a priority for the Company and its subsidiaries. The ability to grow profitably is in part dependent upon the ability to maintain that quality. The Company continually focuses efforts at its subsidiary banks and leasing company with the intention to improve the overall quality of the Company’s loan/lease portfolio.

(3)

Texas Ratio = Nonperforming Assets (excluding Other Repossessed Assets) / Tangible Equity plus Allowance. Texas Ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management included this ratio as it is considered by many investors and analysts to be a metric with which to analyze and evaluate asset quality. Other companies may calculate this ratio differently.

 

NPAs at June 30, 2016 were $18.9 million, which were flat from March 31, 2016 and down $8.2 million from June 30, 2015. In addition, the ratio of NPAs to total assets was 0.70% at June 30, 2016, which was down from 0.71% at March 31, 2016, and down from 1.07% at June 30, 2015.

 

The large majority of the NPAs consist of nonaccrual loans/leases, accruing TDRs, and OREO. For nonaccrual loans/leases and accruing TDRs, management has thoroughly reviewed these loans/leases and has provided specific allowances as appropriate.

 

OREO is carried at the lower of carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.

 

Additionally, a portion of several of the nonaccrual loans are guaranteed by the government. At June 30, 2016, government guaranteed amounts of nonaccrual loans totaled approximately $713 thousand, or 7% of the $10.7 million of total nonaccrual loans/leases.

 

The Company’s lending/leasing practices remain unchanged and asset quality remains a top priority for management.

The Company has been successful in growing its noninterest bearing deposit portfolio over the past several years, although during the second quarter, noninterest bearing demand deposits decreased 4%.

 

Quarter-end balances can greatly fluctuate due to large customer and correspondent bank activity. Management will continue to focus on growing its noninterest bearing deposit portfolio, including its correspondent banking business at QCBT, as well as shifting the mix from brokered and other higher cost deposits to lower cost core deposits.

 

BORROWINGS 

 

The subsidiary banks offer short-term repurchase agreements to some of their significant customers. Also, the subsidiary banks purchase federal funds for short-term funding needs from the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago or from their correspondent banks. The table below presents the composition of the Company’s short-term borrowings.

    $ 51,561     $ 64,023     $ 144,663     $ 168,575  

 

The Company is nearing the end of transitioning its overnight repurchase agreements with customers into a comparable interest bearing demand deposit product that offers full FDIC insurance. This transition freed up securities that were previously pledged as collateral to the overnight repurchase agreements with customers. This enhanced the Company’s ability to further rotate its earning assets from securities to loans.

 

As a result of their memberships in either the FHLB of Des Moines or Chicago, the subsidiary banks have the ability to borrow funds for short or long-term purposes under a variety of programs. FHLB advances are utilized for loan matching as a hedge against the possibility of rising interest rates, and when these advances provide a less costly or more readily available source of funds than customer deposits.

Other borrowings consist of structured repos which are utilized as an alternative funding source to FHLB advances and customer deposits. Structured repos are collateralized by certain U.S. government agency securities and residential mortgage backed securities. Structured repos totaled $100 million, $100 million, $110 million and $115 million as of June 30, 2016, March 31, 2016, December 31, 2015 and June 30, 2015, respectively.

 

It is management’s intention to continue to reduce its reliance on wholesale funding, including FHLB advances, structured repos, and brokered deposits. Replacement of this funding with core deposits helps to reduce interest expense as the wholesale funding tends to be higher cost. However, the Company may choose to utilize advances and/or brokered deposits to supplement funding needs, as this is a way for the Company to effectively and efficiently manage interest rate risk. The table below presents the maturity schedule including weighted average interest cost for the Company’s combined wholesale funding portfolio.

During the first six months of 2016, wholesale funding increased $69.0 million. While the Company increased overall wholesale funding, the increase was all short-term in nature, as 2016 maturities increased $97.8 million, while all future year maturities saw a decrease due to brokered CDs that were called and prepayments of certain FHLB advances and structured repos (as further described in Note 4 of the Consolidated Financial Statements).

During the second quarter of 2015, the Company finalized its acquisition of the 20% noncontrolling interest in m2 (further described in Note 23 of the Company’s annual report filed on Form 10-K as of December 31, 2015). As final 2015 tax returns were filed in early 2016, the Company made necessary final adjustments to the related deferred tax accounts. This resulted in an increase of $2.1 million to deferred tax assets and additional paid in capital during the second quarter of 2016.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

Liquidity measures the ability of the Company to meet maturing obligations and its existing commitments, to withstand fluctuations in deposit levels, to fund its operations, and to provide for customers’ credit needs. The Company monitors liquidity risk through contingency planning stress testing on a regular basis. The Company seeks to avoid over-concentration of funding sources and to establish and maintain contingent funding facilities that can be drawn upon if normal funding sources become unavailable. One source of liquidity is cash and short-term assets, such as interest-bearing deposits in other banks and federal funds sold, which averaged $115.4 million during the second quarter of 2016 and $129.5 million during 2015. The Company’s on balance sheet liquidity position can fluctuate based on short-term activity in deposits and loans.

 

The subsidiary banks have a variety of sources of short-term liquidity available to them, including federal funds purchased from correspondent banks, FHLB advances, wholesale structured repurchase agreements, brokered deposits, lines of credit, borrowing at the Federal Reserve Discount Window, sales of securities available for sale, and loan/lease participations or sales. The Company also generates liquidity from the regular principal payments and prepayments made on its loan/lease portfolio, and on the regular monthly payments on its securities portfolio (both residential mortgage-backed securities and municipal securities).

 

At June 30, 2016, the subsidiary banks had 33 lines of credit totaling $359.0 million, of which $12.0 million was secured and $347.0 million was unsecured. At June 30, 2016, $339.0 million was available as $20.0 million was utilized for short-term borrowings needs at QCBT.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – continued

 

At December 31, 2015, the subsidiary banks had 32 lines of credit totaling $346.6 million, of which $14.6 million was secured and $332.0 million was unsecured. At December 31, 2015, $286.6 million was available as $60.0 million was utilized for short-term borrowing needs at QCBT.

 

The Company has emphasized growing the number and amount of lines of credit in an effort to strengthen this contingent source of liquidity. Additionally, the Company maintains a $10.0 million secured revolving credit note with a variable interest rate and a maturity of June 30, 2017. At June 30, 2016, the Company had not borrowed on this revolving credit note and had the full amount available.

 

The Company currently has $299.8 million in correspondent banking deposits spread over 176 relationships. While the Company feels that these funds are very stable, there is the potential for large fluctuations that can impact liquidity. Seasonality and the liquidity needs of these correspondent banks can impact balances. Management closely monitors these fluctuations and runs stress scenarios to measure the impact on liquidity and interest rate risk with various levels of correspondent deposit run-off.

 

Investing activities used cash of $67.2 million during the first six months of 2016, compared to $15.0 million for the same period of 2015. Proceeds from calls, maturities, paydowns, and sales of securities were $171.1 million for the first six months of 2016, compared to $240.3 million for the same period of 2015. Purchases of securities used cash of $97.1 million for the first six months of 2016, compared to $181.3 million for the same period of 2015. The net increase in loans/leases used cash of $125.0 million for the first six months of 2016 compared to $85.8 million for the same period of 2015.

 

Financing activities provided cash of $60.3 million for the first six months of 2016, compared to $7.9 million for same period of 2015. Net increases in deposits totaled $92.9 million for the first six months of 2016, compared to $157.1 million for the same period of 2015. During the first six months of 2016, the Company’s short-term borrowings decreased $93.1 million, while they decreased $99.8 million for the same period of 2015. During the first six months of 2016, the Company used $25.2 million to prepay select FHLB advances and other borrowings. In the same period, the Company received $29.8 million of proceeds from the common stock offering of 1.2 million shares of common stock. During the first six months of 2015, the Company received $63.5 million of proceeds from the common stock offering of 3.7 million shares of common stock. In the same period, the Company used $110.4 million to prepay select FHLB advances and other borrowings.

 

Total cash provided by operating activities was $14.8 million for the first six months of 2016, compared to $8.9 million for the same period of 2015.

 

Throughout its history, the Company has secured additional capital through various sources, including the issuance of common and preferred stock, as well as trust preferred securities. Trust preferred securities are reported on the Company’s balance sheet as liabilities, but currently qualify for treatment as regulatory capital.

The Company assumed the trust preferred securities originally issued by Community National in connection with its acquisition in May 2013. As a result of acquisition accounting, the liabilities were recorded at fair value upon acquisition with the resulting discount being accreted as interest expense on a level yield basis over the expected term. The original discount totaled $2.6 million. As of June 30, 2016, the remaining discount was $2.2 million.

 

QCR Holdings Statutory Trust IV was extinguished in the first quarter of 2016. Refer to Note 4 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

 

On August 27, 2015, the Company filed a universal shelf registration statement on Form S-3 with the SEC. This registration statement, declared effective by the SEC on October 5, 2015, allows the Company to issue various types of securities, including common stock, preferred stock, debt securities or warrants, from time to time, up to an aggregate amount of $100 million. The specific terms and prices of the securities will be determined at the time of any future offering and described in a separate prospectus supplement, which would be filed with the SEC at the time of the particular offering, if any. On May 23, 2016, the Company completed a $30 million takedown from its shelf registration statement for the common stock issuance discussed in Note 9 of the Consolidated Financial Statements, leaving $70 million for future offerings. 

 

The Company (on a consolidated basis) and the subsidiary banks are subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by the federal banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements can initiate certain mandatory and possibly additional discretionary actions by regulators that, if undertaken, could have a direct material effect on the Company and subsidiary banks’ financial statements. Refer to Note 8 of the Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding regulatory capital.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – continued

 

SPECIAL NOTE CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

 

Safe Harbor Statement Under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. This document (including information incorporated by reference) contains, and future oral and written statements of the Company and its management may contain, forward-looking statements, within the meaning of such term in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, with respect to the financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance and business of the Company. Forward-looking statements, which may be based upon beliefs, expectations and assumptions of the Company’s management and on information currently available to management, are generally identifiable by the use of words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “bode,” “predict,” “suggest,” “project,” “appear,” “plan,” “intend,” “estimate,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” “likely,” or other similar expressions. Additionally, all statements in this document, including forward-looking statements, speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any statement in light of new information or future events.

 

The Company’s ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. The factors which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations and future prospects are detailed in the “Risk Factors” sections included under Item 1A of Part I of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and Item 1A of Part II of this report. In addition to the risk factors described in that section, there are other factors that may impact any public company, including the Company, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operations and future prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries.

 

These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements.

Item 3

 

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

The Company, like other financial institutions, is subject to direct and indirect market risk. Direct market risk exists from changes in interest rates. The Company’s net income is dependent on its net interest income. Net interest income is susceptible to interest rate risk to the degree that interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice on a different basis than interest-earning assets. When interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice more quickly than interest-earning assets in a given period, a significant increase in market rates of interest could adversely affect net interest income. Similarly, when interest-earning assets mature or reprice more quickly than interest-bearing liabilities, falling interest rates could result in a decrease in net interest income.

 

In an attempt to manage the Company’s exposure to changes in interest rates, management monitors the Company’s interest rate risk. Each subsidiary bank has an asset/liability management committee of the board of directors that meets quarterly to review the bank’s interest rate risk position and profitability, and to make or recommend adjustments for consideration by the full board of each bank.

 

Internal asset/liability management teams consisting of members of the subsidiary banks’ management meet weekly to manage the mix of assets and liabilities to maximize earnings and liquidity and minimize interest rate and other risks. Management also reviews the subsidiary banks’ securities portfolios, formulates investment strategies, and oversees the timing and implementation of transactions to assure attainment of the board's objectives in an effective manner. Notwithstanding the Company’s interest rate risk management activities, the potential for changing interest rates is an uncertainty that can have an adverse effect on net income.

 

In adjusting the Company’s asset/liability position, the board of directors and management attempt to manage the Company’s interest rate risk while maintaining or enhancing net interest margins. At times, depending on the level of general interest rates, the relationship between long-term and short-term interest rates, market conditions and competitive factors, the board of directors and management may decide to increase the Company’s interest rate risk position somewhat in order to increase its net interest margin. The Company’s results of operations and net portfolio values remain vulnerable to increases in interest rates and to fluctuations in the difference between long-term and short-term interest rates.

 

One method used to quantify interest rate risk is a short-term earnings at risk summary, which is a detailed and dynamic simulation model used to quantify the estimated exposure of net interest income to sustained interest rate changes. This simulation model captures the impact of changing interest rates on the interest income received and interest expense paid on all interest sensitive assets and liabilities reflected on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet. This sensitivity analysis demonstrates net interest income exposure annually over a five-year horizon, assuming no balance sheet growth and various interest rate scenarios including no change in rates; 200, 300, 400, and 500 basis point upward shifts; and a 100 basis point downward shift in interest rates, where interest-bearing assets and liabilities reprice at their earliest possible repricing date.

 

The model assumes parallel and pro rata shifts in interest rates over a twelve-month period for the 200 basis point upward shift and 100 basis point downward shift. For the 400 basis point upward shift, the model assumes a parallel and pro rata shift in interest rates over a twenty-four month period. For the 500 basis point upward shift, the model assumes a flattening and pro rata shift in interest rates over a twelve-month period where the short-end of the yield curve shifts upward greater than the long-end of the yield curve.

QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Further, in recent years, the Company added additional interest rate scenarios where interest rates experience a parallel and instantaneous shift upward 100, 200, 300, and 400 basis points and a parallel and instantaneous shift downward 100 basis points. The Company will run additional interest rate scenarios on an as-needed basis.

 

The asset/liability management committees of the subsidiary bank boards of directors have established policy limits of a 10% decline in net interest income for the 200 basis point upward parallel shift and the 100 basis point downward parallel shift. For the 300 basis point upward shock, the established policy limit has been increased to 25% decline in net interest income. The increased policy limit is appropriate as the shock scenario is extreme and unlikely and warrants a higher limit than the more realistic and traditional parallel/pro-rata shift scenarios.

 

Application of the simulation model analysis for select interest rate scenarios at the most recent quarter-end available is presented in the following table:

 

   

NET INTEREST INCOME EXPOSURE in YEAR 1

INTEREST RATE SCENARIO

POLICY LIMIT

As of March 31, 2016

As of December 31, 2015

As of December 31, 2014

         

100 basis point downward shift

-10.0%

-1.2%

-2.1%

-1.7%

200 basis point upward shift

-10.0%

-3.4%

-2.7%

-5.0%

300 basis point upward shock

-25.0%

-7.1%

-7.1%

-11.9%

 

The simulation is within the board-established policy limits for all three scenarios. Additionally, for all of the various interest rate scenarios modeled and measured by management (as described above), the results at March 31, 2016 (the most recent quarter available) were within established risk tolerances as established by policy or by best practice (if the interest rate scenario didn’t have a specific policy limit).

 

In 2014, the Company executed two interest rate cap transactions, each with a notional value of $15.0 million, for a total of $30.0 million. The interest rate caps purchased essentially set a ceiling to the interest rate paid on the $30.0 million of short-term FHLB advances that are being hedged, minimizing the interest rate risk associated with rising interest rates. The Company will continue to analyze and evaluate similar transactions as an alternative and cost effective way to mitigate interest rate risk.

 

Interest rate risk is considered to be one of the most significant market risks affecting the Company. For that reason, the Company engages the assistance of a national consulting firm and its risk management system to monitor and control the Company’s interest rate risk exposure. Other types of market risk, such as foreign currency exchange rate risk and commodity price risk, do not arise in the normal course of the Company’s business activities.
