Arrow Reports 13.6% Net Income Increase, Double-Digit Loan Growth

Net income for the third quarter of 2016 increased 13.6% from a year ago to $6.7 million.
Third-quarter diluted earnings per share (EPS) rose 11.1% to $0.50.
Period-end total loans reached a record high of $1.7 billion, up 11.1% year over year.
Record highs also recorded for period-end total assets, total deposits and total equity.
Continued strong ratios for profitability, asset quality and capital.

GLENS FALLS, N.Y. (October 20, 2016) – Arrow Financial Corporation (NasdaqGS® – AROW) announced operating results for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2016. Net income for the third quarter of 2016 was $6.7 million, an increase of $805 thousand, or 13.6%, from net income of $5.9 million a year earlier. Diluted earnings per share (EPS) for the third quarter was $0.50, an increase of 11.1% from the 2015 comparable quarter, when diluted EPS was $0.45. Net income for the first nine months of 2016 was $19.9 million, an increase of $1.8 million, or 10.2%, over the 2015 period. For the same comparative period, diluted EPS increased 8.8% from $1.36 in 2015 to $1.48 in 2016.

Our annualized key profitability ratios continue to remain strong as measured by a return on average equity (ROE) of 11.93% and a return on average assets (ROA) of 1.07% for the first nine months of 2016, compared to our ratios of 11.73% and 1.05% for the same period in 2015. Historical share and per share amounts have been restated to reflect our 3% stock dividend distributed on September 29, 2016.

Arrow President and CEO Thomas J. Murphy stated, "Arrow finished the third quarter with strong results, building upon growth in the first half of the year. We again reached records for our loan portfolio, total assets, total deposits and total equity, as well as assets held under trust and investment management. Loans have been a key driver of our solid performance, as well as expansion into new markets with deposit and lending opportunities. Finally, Arrow was again recognized by Forbes as one of the 'Most Trustworthy Financial Companies' in the country – a distinction we are very proud of and have worked hard to earn. I thank our team for delivering these results and remaining committed to our customers, shareholders and community."

The following expands upon our third-quarter results:

Net Interest Income: In the third quarter of 2016, our net interest income, whether measured on a GAAP or non-GAAP (tax-equivalent) basis, increased modestly, compared to the third quarter of 2015, reflecting steady period-to-period growth in total assets including loans. Our net interest margin, again whether measured on a GAAP or non-GAAP basis, increased 1 basis point between the two quarters to 3.15% in 2016 from 3.14% in 2015.

Our net interest margin for the third quarter of 2016 decreased 8 basis points from the previous quarter; it decreased 4 basis points when adjusted for a previously disclosed second-quarter commercial loan payoff. The primary reason for the decrease was the yield on new loans and investments and some repricing downward as the cost of funds was repricing higher. Our net interest margin stabilized over recent periods due to a change in asset mix, with an increase in loans as a percentage of assets and an increase in demand deposits. Intermediate and long-term interest rates remain very low and we expect this low interest rate environment to persist in upcoming periods, which will likely continue to place increased downward pressure on our net interest margins.

Loan Growth: At September 30, 2016, our total loan balance increased $170.3 million from a year earlier to a record high of $1.7 billion. Over the nine-month period ended September 30, 2016, total loans grew $133.3 million, or 8.5%, with growth in all three of our major loan segments: commercial, consumer (primarily indirect automobile) and residential real estate.

During the first nine months of 2016, we experienced an increase of $59 million, or 12.7%, in our consumer loan portfolio, which reached a period-end balance of $524 million, exceeding the September 30, 2015, balance by $64.8 million, or 14.1%. This increase was primarily a result of growth in our indirect automobile lending program. In the third quarter, we originated $69.5 million in new loans for new and used automobiles. Additionally, total outstanding commercial loans increased 9.1% during the first nine months, reaching a balance of $532.1 million on September 30, 2016, up $55.5 million, or 11.6%, from September 30, 2015. Finally, our residential real estate loan portfolio increased by $29.5 million, or 4.8%, during the first nine months of 2016, with a balance at period end of $651 million. We originated approximately $36.7 million of residential real estate loans during the quarter, down $11.1 million from the comparable 2015 quarter.

Deposit Growth: At September 30, 2016, deposit balances reached $2.2 billion, an increase of $131.1 million, or 6.3%, from the prior-year level. The strategic expansion of our branch network in the Capital District in recent years has been effective in raising new deposits, as well as new loan opportunities. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $33.8 million, or 9.7%, from the prior-year level, which has positively impacted net interest margin. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits represented 17.2% of total deposits at September 30, 2016, an increase from 16.7% as of September 30, 2015.

Assets Under Management and Related Noninterest Income: Assets under trust administration and investment management reached a record high at September 30, 2016. They were up $88.4 million, or 7.4%, from the total at September 30, 2015, primarily due to the performance of the equity markets. However, the related income from fiduciary activities between the respective nine-month periods decreased $53 thousand, primarily as a result of the timing of our periodic fee assessments.

Insurance Agency Operations: Insurance commission income for the first nine months of 2016 declined to $6.5 million, down 5.6% from $6.8 million during the same period in 2015. The decrease was directly attributable to the sale in October 2015 of one of our wholly-owned subsidiary insurance agencies, which specialized in servicing sports accident and health insurance needs of customers primarily located outside of New York State.

Asset Quality: Asset quality remained strong at September 30, 2016, as measured by our comparatively low levels of nonperforming assets and net charge-offs. Nonperforming assets at September 30, 2016, of $7.8 million were down by $2.2 million from the prior-year level and down $1.1 million from year-end 2015, despite in each case a substantial increase in total assets during each intervening period. Our nonperforming assets represented only 0.30% of total assets at period-end, versus 0.41% at September 30, 2015. Net loan losses expressed as an annualized percentage of average loans outstanding were just 0.07% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2016, compared to 0.09% for the same period a year ago.

Our allowance for loan losses was $17.0 million at September 30, 2016, which represented 0.99% of loans outstanding, 4 basis points below our ratio one year earlier and 3 basis points below our ratio at December 31, 2015. Our provision for loan losses for the third quarter of 2016 was $480 thousand, down $57 thousand from the provision for the comparable 2015 quarter. The decrease reflected a modest decline in the level of classified commercial loans between the periods. Our coverage ratio at period-end continued to reflect the strong quality of our loan portfolio.

Cash and Stock Dividends: We distributed a cash dividend of $0.243 per share to shareholders in the third quarter of 2016. The cash dividend was 3% higher than the cash dividend paid in the third quarter of 2015 when adjusted for our 3% stock dividend distributed on September 29, 2016.


2



Capital: Total stockholders’ equity was a record $229.2 million at period-end, up $18.1 million, or 8.6%, above the prior-year amount. Our capital grew over the period at a faster pace than total asset growth of 6.7%, and the capital ratios remained strong in 2016. At September 30, 2016, the Company's Capital Equity Tier 1 ratio was estimated to be 12.80% and the total risk-based capital ratio was estimated to be 14.99%. The capital ratios of the Company and both its subsidiary banks continue to significantly exceed the “well capitalized” regulatory standards, which places us in the highest current regulatory category.

Peer Group: Many of our key operating ratios have consistently compared favorably to our peer group, defined as U.S. bank holding companies having $1 billion to $3 billion in total assets, as identified in the Federal Reserve Bank’s "Bank Holding Company Performance Report" (FRB Report). The most current peer data available in the FRB Report is as of and for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, in which our return on average equity (ROE) annualized was 11.95%, as compared to 8.47% for our peer group. As of September 30, 2016, our ratio of loans 90 days past due and accruing, plus nonaccrual loans to total loans was 0.40%, as compared to 0.84% for our peer group, while our annualized ratio of net loan losses of 0.05% was below the peer result of 0.07%.

Industry Recognition: Arrow Financial Corporation was again named one of "America's 50 Most Trustworthy Financial Companies" by Forbes, the fifth consecutive year we have received this recognition. Arrow was also recently recognized in Bank Director Magazine’s annual “Bank Performance Scorecard” as one of the top-performing banks in the country. We ranked 37th among the top 166 U.S. banks with $1 billion to $5 billion in assets, based on profitability, capitalization and asset quality, earning the highest ranking among its peers in New York State.

Both of the Company's two banking subsidiaries also maintained their 5-Star Superior Bank by BauerFinancial, Inc. Glens Falls National Bank and Trust Company and Saratoga National Bank and Trust Company have each earned this designation for the past 38 and 30 quarters, respectively.

Financial Institutions often use the "efficiency ratio", a non-GAAP ratio, as a measure of expense control. We believe the efficiency ratio provides investors with information that is useful in understanding our financial performance. We define our efficiency ratio as the ratio of our noninterest expense to our net gross income (which equals our tax-equivalent net interest income plus noninterest income, as adjusted).

For the current quarter, all of the regulatory capital ratios in the table above, as well as the Total Risk-Weighted Assets and Common Equity Tier 1 Capital amounts listed in the table below, are estimates based on, and calculated in accordance with, bank regulatory capital rules. All prior quarters reflect actual results. The September 30, 2016 CET1 ratio listed in the tables (i.e., 12.80%) exceeds the sum of the required minimum CET1 ratio plus the fully phased-in Capital Conservation Buffer (i.e., 7.00%).
