Park Sterling Corporation Announces

Results for Third Quarter 2017

 

 

Charlotte, NC – October 26, 2017 – Park Sterling Corporation (NASDAQ: PSTB), the holding company for Park Sterling Bank, today released unaudited results of operations and other financial information for the third quarter of 2017. Financial results for the third quarter of 2017 include:

 

Net income of $8.7 million, or $0.16 per share, compared to $8.5 million, or $0.16 per share, in the quarter ended June 30, 2017, and $6.3 million, or $0.12 per share, in the quarter ended September 30, 2016

Adjusted net income (non-GAAP), which excludes merger-related expenses and gain on sale of securities, was $9.2 million, or $0.17 per share, compared to $9.2 million, or $0.17 per share in the prior quarter, and $7.3 million, or $0.14 per share, in the quarter ended September 30, 2016

Reported annualized returns on average assets and equity for the third quarter 2017 were 1.05% and 9.21%, respectively, while adjusted annualized returns on average assets and average equity (non-GAAP) were 1.11% and 9.75%, respectively

Noninterest income decreased $39 thousand from the prior quarter, with a decrease in mortgage banking income mostly offset by growth in capital markets income

Noninterest expenses totaled $20.1 million, a decrease of $1.3 million from the prior quarter; adjusted noninterest expenses (non-GAAP), which excludes merger-related expenses, decreased $1.0 million from the prior quarter

Nonperforming loans declined to a very low level of 0.40% of total loans

Capital levels remained strong with a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 10.36%

The Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend on common shares of $0.04 per share (October 2017)

 

We are pleased with our financial results for the third quarter, during which time we focused on several projects in preparation for our pending combination with South State Corporation,” said Jim Cherry, Chief Executive Officer. “We look forward to completing the merger, and we are very excited about the opportunity to create a premier regional banking franchise in the southeast.”

 

Financial Results

 

Income Statement – Three Months Ended September 30, 2017

 

Park Sterling reported net income of $8.7 million, or $0.16 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2017 (“2017Q3”). This compares to net income of $8.5 million, or $0.16 per share, for the three months ended June 30, 2017 (“2017Q2”) and net income of $6.3 million, or $0.12 per share, for the three months ended September 30, 2016 (“2016Q3”). The increase in net income from 2017Q2 resulted primarily from decreases in operating expenses, merger-related expenses and provision for loan losses, partially offset by a decrease in interest income on earning assets and an increase in income tax expense. The increase in net income from 2016Q3 was primarily a result of an increase in net interest income, a decrease in provision for loan losses and a decrease in merger-related expenses, partially offset by an increase in income taxes.

 

Net interest income totaled $27.8 million in 2017Q3, which represents a $0.8 million, or 3%, decrease from $28.6 million in 2017Q2 and a $2.0 million, or 8%, increase from $25.8 million in 2016Q3. Average total earning assets decreased $21 million in 2017Q3 to $3.03 billion, compared to $3.05 billion in 2017Q2 and increased $127 million, or 4%, compared to $2.90 billion in 2016Q3. The decrease in average total earning assets in 2017Q3 from 2017Q2 included a decrease in average loans (including loans held for sale) of $16 million, or 2.6% annualized, a decrease in average marketable securities of $21 million, and an increase in average other interest-earning assets of $16 million. The reduction in average total earning assets reflects actions in preparation for the merger to use cash flows from maturing investments and loans that are not closely tied to customer relationships to reduce brokered deposits and borrowed funds. Additionally, the reduction reflects a lower level of new business activity in light of the pending merger and our focus on maintaining our existing customers. The increase in average total earning assets in 2017Q3 from 2016Q3 resulted primarily from a $115 million, or 5%, increase in average loans (including loans held for sale), a $16 million, or 3%, decrease in average marketable securities and a $28 million, or 53%, increase in average other interest-earning assets.

Net interest margin was 3.65% in 2017Q3, representing a 12 basis point decrease from 3.77% in 2017Q2 and an 11 basis point increase from 3.54% in 2016Q3. The decrease in net interest margin from 2017Q2 resulted primarily from a 12 basis point decrease in loan yields resulting from a reduction in the interest income accretion on acquired loans, as well as a 10 basis point increase in the cost of borrowed funds, which reflected the increase in market interest rates. The increase in net interest margin from 2016Q3 was primarily the result of a 17 basis point increase in loan yields and an improved yield on investment securities, partially offset by an increase in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities.

 

The Company reported a recovery of loan losses of $353 thousand in 2017Q3, compared to no provision recorded in 2017Q2, and $642 thousand of provision for loan losses recorded in 2016Q3. Allowance for loan loss levels remained at 0.51% of total loans at 2017Q3, unchanged from 2017Q2.

 

Noninterest income totaled $5.4 million in 2017Q3, which was essentially unchanged compared to both 2017Q2 and 2016Q3. The $39 thousand decrease from 2017Q2 is primarily the result of a $305 thousand decrease in mortgage banking income partially offset by a $282 thousand increase in capital markets income. The $68 thousand decrease in noninterest income from 2016Q3 reflects a decrease in mortgage banking and wealth management income of $545 thousand and $121 thousand, respectively, offset by a $247 thousand increase in capital markets income, as well as the absence of $139 thousand in amortization of FDIC indemnification asset recorded in 2016Q3.

 

Noninterest expense decreased $1.3 million, or 6%, to $20.1 million in 2017Q3 from $21.4 million in 2017Q2, and decreased $1.0 million, or 5%, compared to $21.1 million in 2016Q3. The decrease in noninterest expense from 2017Q2 resulted primarily from a $331 thousand decrease in merger-related expenses incurred in the third quarter as compared to the second quarter, as well as a decrease in salary and employee benefits of $330 thousand, a decrease in the net cost of OREO of $221 thousand, and a decrease in legal and professional fees of $219 thousand. The decrease in noninterest expenses from 2016Q3 was due primarily to a decrease in merger-related expenses of $895 thousand.

 

The Company’s effective tax rate was 35.2% in 2017Q3, compared to 32.2% in 2017Q2 and 33.5% in 2016Q3. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily a result of non-deductible merger-related expenses.

 

Balance Sheet

 

Total assets decreased $93.7 million, or 11% annualized, to $3.25 billion at 2017Q3, compared to total assets of $3.34 billion at 2017Q2. Total securities, including non-marketable securities, decreased $22.8 million, to $488.7 million. Total loans, excluding loans held for sale, decreased $72.5 million, or 12% annualized, to $2.43 billion at 2017Q3.

 

The mix of commercial and consumer loans remained largely consistent with 2017Q2. Total commercial loans decreased $73.0 million and represent 78% of the loan portfolio. Acquisition, construction and development loans increased $0.3 million and represent 13.9% of the portfolio, up from 13.5% at 2017Q2. Total consumer loans increased $0.3 million and increased as a percentage of total loans to 22% of the portfolio compared to 21% at 2017Q2.

 

Total deposits decreased $68.3 million, or 11% annualized, to $2.47 billion at 2017Q3. Noninterest bearing demand deposits decreased $4.2 million, or 3% annualized, to $550.2 million from 2017Q2. Money market, NOW and savings deposits were down $30.8 million from 2017Q2 and represent 51% of total deposits. Time deposits decreased $33.3 million to $658.4 million at 2017Q3.

Total borrowings decreased $34.8 million, or 35% annualized, to $373.8 million at 2017Q3 compared to $408.6 million at 2017Q2. At 2017Q3, FHLB borrowings totaled $310 million, the senior unsecured term loan at the holding company totaled $29.8 million, and acquired subordinated debt, net of acquisition accounting fair value marks, totaled $34.0 million.

 

Total shareholders’ equity increased $7.4 million to $376.7 million at 2017Q3 compared to $369.3 million at 2017Q2, driven by a $6.6 million increase in retained earnings and an increase of $0.3 million in accumulated other comprehensive income. The change in accumulated other comprehensive income was caused by the effect of market interest rates on the fair value of available for sale investment securities.

 

The Company’s capital ratios remain strong at September 30, 2017 with the Common Equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) ratio at 11.59% and the Tier 1 leverage ratio at 10.36%.

 

Asset Quality

 

Asset quality remains strong. Nonperforming assets were $12.2 million at 2017Q3, or 0.38% of total assets, compared to $15.1 million at 2017Q2, or 0.45% of total assets. Nonperforming loans were $9.6 million at 2017Q3, and represented 0.40% of total loans, compared to $12.0 million at 2017Q2, or 0.48% of total loans. The Company reported net recoveries of $74 thousand, or 0.01% of average loans (annualized), in 2017Q3, compared to net charge-offs of $131 thousand, or 0.02% of average loans (annualized), in 2017Q2.

 

The allowance for loan losses decreased $279 thousand, or 2%, to $12.4 million, or 0.51% of total loans, at 2017Q3, compared to $12.7 million, or 0.51% of total loans, at 2017Q2. The decrease in the allowance from 2017Q2 is primarily attributable to the decrease in the loan balances at the end of the period.

Tangible assets, tangible common equity, tangible book value, adjusted average tangible common equity, adjusted net income, adjusted noninterest income, adjusted operating revenues, adjusted noninterest expense, adjusted operating expenses, adjusted allowance for loan losses, and related ratios and per share measures, including adjusted return on average assets and adjusted return on average equity, as used throughout this release, are non-GAAP financial measures. Management uses (i) tangible assets, tangible common equity, tangible book value and average tangible common equity (which exclude goodwill and other intangibles from equity and assets), and related ratios, to evaluate the adequacy of shareholders’ equity and to facilitate comparisons with peers; (ii) adjusted allowance for loan losses (which includes net FMV adjustments related to acquired loans) as supplemental information for comparing the combined allowance and fair market value adjustments to the combined acquired and non-acquired loan portfolios (fair market value adjustments are available only for losses on acquired loans) to facilitate comparisons with peers; and (iii) adjusted net income, adjusted noninterest income and adjusted noninterest expense (which exclude merger-related expenses and/or gain or loss on sale of securities, as applicable), adjusted operating expense (which excludes merger-related expenses and amortization of intangibles) and adjusted operating revenues (which includes net interest income and noninterest income and excludes gain or loss on sale of securities, as applicable) to evaluate core earnings and to facilitate comparisons with peers.
