Franklin Financial Network Announces Record Second Quarter Earnings Of $0.68 Per Diluted Share

FRANKLIN, Tenn., July 25, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Franklin Financial Network, Inc. (NYSE: FSB), the parent company (the "Company") of Franklin Synergy Bank (the "Bank"), today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2018. For the quarter, net income available to common shareholders was $10.2 million, up 14.6% from $8.9 million for the second quarter of 2017. Earnings per diluted share increased 6.3% to $0.68 for the second quarter of 2018 from $0.64 for the second quarter last year. Results for the second quarter of 2018 include pre-tax acquisition costs of $0.5 million, or $0.03 per diluted share after tax. Weighted average diluted common shares outstanding for the second quarter of 2018 increased 9.3% from the second quarter of 2017, primarily due to the issuance of shares as consideration for the acquisition of Civic Bank & Trust ("Civic").

Highlights for the second quarter of 2018 include:

  • Return on average assets of 0.98% and return on average tangible common equity of 12.72%;
  • An improvement in net interest margin to 2.74% from 2.71% for the first quarter of 2018;
  • A 23.0% comparable-quarter increase in loans, including loans held for sale ("total loans"), to $2.49 billion at June 30, 2018, and a 7.1% (28.7% annualized) sequential-quarter increase. This increase included approximately $85.0 million of loans added by the Civic acquisition. Excluding the acquired volume, loans grew 18.8% from the second quarter of 2017 and at an annualized pace of approximately 14.0% sequentially;
  • A 23.4% comparable-quarter increase in total deposits to $3.40 billion and 1.3% (5.1% annualized) sequential growth reflecting the seasonality of public funds deposits, which peak in the fourth and early first quarter of each year and decline to their annual low points in the third quarter;
  • Strong credit quality, with nonperforming loans to total loans, excluding loans held for sale, of 0.14%; allowance for loan losses to total loans, excluding loans held for sale, of 0.90%; and net recoveries to average loans of 0.01%; and
  • An efficiency ratio of 58.13%, including a 161 basis point impact from acquisition costs.

For the first six months of 2018, net income available to common shareholders increased 20.3% to $20.2 million from $16.8 million for the first six months of 2017. Earnings per diluted share increased 15.6% to $1.41 for the first half of 2018 from $1.22 for the same period in 2017.

Richard Herrington, Chairman, President and CEO remarked, "I'm pleased to report second quarter earnings per share that outpaced expectations. Contributing to these results were continued substantial growth in the loan portfolio, combined with pristine credit quality and solid capital ratios. Record net interest income contributed to margin improvement despite sustained pressure from rising short-term rates and continued yield curve flattening. In addition to loan growth, these pressures were offset by incremental yield improvement from the ongoing favorable shift in the mix of our interest earning assets and from our strategic loan portfolio review during the first quarter.

"Our second quarter results reflected the completion of our acquisition of Civic. We remain optimistic about the longer-term benefits of the merger, which gave the Bank our first full service branch office in Nashville and Davidson County. The continuing strength of the Nashville and Middle Tennessee markets is evident in the area's ranking as third in the nation in job growth for 2017, with unemployment rates in the Company's three-county footprint averaging 2.1% as of April 2018.

"In this environment, we expect to deliver further organic growth as we focus on managing the expansion in our loan portfolio consistent with the growth in retail deposits. In addition, we will continue to evaluate potential acquisitions with strong asset quality and capital as well as attractive deposit franchises. With our sound balance sheet and strong credit quality, our investment in technology infrastructure and our entrepreneurial and customer-centric team, we believe continued successful execution of our growth strategies will produce long-term growth in shareholder value."

Strong Asset Quality: The Company continues to be differentiated among its peers through its pristine asset quality measures. For the second quarter of 2018, the provision for loan losses was $0.6 million, consistent with the second quarter of 2017 and the first quarter of 2018. Provision expense for the quarter and year-to-date in 2018 reflects net recoveries over the preceding year, yet is sufficient to provide an allowance for loan losses to total loans, excluding loans held for sale, of 0.90%.

Attractive, Growing, Local Markets Support Balance Sheet Expansion: Total assets increased 21.0% to $4.17 billion at quarter end from the same time in 2017 and 2.0% (8.0% annualized) sequentially. As noted earlier, total loans increased to $2.49 billion at the end of the second quarter, up 23.0% from the same prior-year quarter and 7.1% (28.7% annualized) sequentially.

Total deposits at June 30, 2018, increased 23.4% on a comparable quarter basis to $3.40 billion and 1.3% (5.1% annualized) sequentially, reflecting the seasonality of public funds deposits. Non-interest bearing deposits increased 20.9% and 3.4% (13.7% annualized) on a comparable- and sequential-quarter basis, and interest bearing deposits increased 23.6% and 1.1% (4.3% annualized).

Growth in Loans and Reduced Tax Rate Offset Impact of Interest Rate Environment: Net interest income for the second quarter of 2018 increased 10.0% to $26.9 million compared with the second quarter of 2017 and increased 7.1% sequentially (28.6% annualized), while net interest margin was 2.74% for the second quarter, compared with 3.08% for the second quarter last year and 2.71% for the first quarter 2018. Factors contributing to this sequential-quarter improvement included a positive shift in balance sheet mix between loans and the securities portfolio, as well as loan yields that widened 21 basis points compared to an 18 basis point increase in funding costs.

Noninterest income was $4.1 million for the second quarter of 2018, a 6.9% comparable-quarter increase and a 20.0% sequential-quarter increase. Comparable-quarter growth reflected strong increases in fees from wealth management, net loan servicing and other noninterest income, somewhat offset by the reduction in gain on sale of securities. Compared with the first quarter of 2018, noninterest income increased primarily due to strong growth in net gains on sale of loans, reflecting an increase in the value of held-for-sale mortgages due to market conditions, and in wealth management fees and other service charges and fees.

Noninterest expense was $18.1 million for the second quarter of 2018, an 18.1% comparable-quarter increase and a 16.5% sequential-quarter increase. In addition to increased expense associated with the Bank's significant organic growth, the latest quarter's results reflect the acquisition of Civic and related transaction costs. The Company's efficiency ratio was 58.13% for the second quarter of 2018, compared with 53.91% for the second quarter of 2017 and 54.21% for the first quarter of 2018. Acquisition costs for the second quarter increased the efficiency ratio by 161 basis points.

The Company's income tax rate improved significantly, to 18.2% for the second quarter of 2018 from 29.0% for the second quarter last year, due to the positive impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act enacted in December 2017.

GAAP Reconciliation and Management Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Some of the financial data included in this earnings release and our selected historical consolidated financial information are not measures of financial performance recognized by GAAP. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its analysis of our performance:

  • "Common shareholders' equity" is defined as total shareholders' equity at end of period less the liquidation preference value of the preferred stock;
  • "Tangible common shareholders' equity" is common shareholders' equity less goodwill and other intangible assets;
  • "Total tangible assets" is defined as total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets;
  • "Other intangible assets" is defined as the sum of core deposit intangible and SBA servicing rights;
  • "Tangible book value per share" is defined as tangible common shareholders' equity divided by total common shares outstanding. This measure is important to investors interested in changes from period-to-period in book value per share exclusive of changes in intangible assets;
  • "Tangible common shareholders' equity ratio" is defined as the ratio of tangible common shareholders' equity divided by total tangible assets. We believe that this measure is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in relative changes from period-to period in common equity and total assets, each exclusive of changes in intangible assets;
  • "Return on Average Tangible Common Equity" is defined as annualized net income available to common shareholders divided by average tangible common shareholders' equity; and
  • "Efficiency ratio" is defined as noninterest expenses divided by our operating revenue, which is equal to net interest income plus noninterest income.

We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful information to management and investors that is supplementary to our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP; however, we acknowledge that our non-GAAP financial measures have a number of limitations. As such, you should not view these disclosures as a substitute for results determined in accordance with GAAP, and they are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP financial measures that other companies use. The following reconciliation table provides a more detailed analysis of these non-GAAP financial measures:
