Washington Trust Reports Third Quarter 2018 Earnings
WESTERLY, R.I., October 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)…Washington Trust Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq:WASH), parent company of The Washington Trust Company, today announced third quarter 2018 net income of $17.5 million, or $1.01 per diluted share, compared to net income of $17.7 million, or $1.01 per diluted share, reported for the second quarter of 2018.

“Washington Trust’s third quarter results reflect another solid operating performance, led by good deposit growth, healthy loan production, and increased wealth management asset generation,” stated Edward O. Handy III, Washington Trust Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

Selected highlights for third quarter 2018 include:
Profitability ratios remained strong, with returns on average equity and average assets of 16.26% and 1.47%, respectively.
Total loans were up by $66 million, or 2%, from the end of the prior quarter and up by $233 million, or 7%, from a year ago.
Total deposits were up by $93 million, or 3%, from the end of the preceding quarter and up by $257 million, or 8%, from a year ago.
In September, Washington Trust declared a quarterly dividend of 43 cents per share. Year-to-date dividends declared amounted to $1.29 per share, an increase of 14 cents per share, or 12%, from the same period a year ago.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income was $33.4 million for the third quarter of 2018, up by $338 thousand, or 1%, from the second quarter of 2018. Income associated with loan payoffs and prepayment penalties in the third quarter of 2018 was $173 thousand, compared to $483 thousand in the prior quarter. The net interest margin was 2.99% for the third quarter, down by 6 basis points from the preceding quarter. Excluding income associated with loan payoffs and prepayment penalties, the net interest margin was 2.98% for the third quarter, down by 3 basis points from the preceding quarter.

Significant linked quarter changes included:
Average interest-earning assets increased by $86 million, largely due to loan growth. The yield on interest-earning assets for the third quarter was 4.03%, up by 5 basis points from the preceding quarter. Excluding the impact of income associated with loan payoffs and prepayment penalties, the yield on interest-earning assets was 4.02%, up by 8 basis points from the preceding quarter. The yield benefited from increased market rates of interest.
Average non-interest bearing demand deposits increased by $38 million, largely due to the recapture of second quarter seasonal outflows. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $44 million, reflecting an increase of $57 million in average in-market deposits, partially offset by a decline of $13 million in average wholesale funding balances (wholesale brokered time deposits and Federal Home Loan Bank advances). The cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the third quarter was 1.28%, up by 14 basis points from the preceding quarter, largely due to higher rates paid on promotional time certificates of deposit and interest-bearing demand deposits. The increase in the rate paid on interest-bearing demand deposits was primarily attributable to a program implemented in June 2018 that transitioned wealth management client assets, previously held in outside accounts, into insured deposits on Washington Trust's balance sheet.

Noninterest Income
Noninterest income totaled $15.2 million for the third quarter of 2018, down by $778 thousand, or 5%, from the second quarter of 2018. Significant linked quarter changes included:
Wealth management revenues were $9.5 million for the third quarter of 2018, down by $148 thousand, or 2%, on a linked quarter basis. This included a decrease of $334 thousand in transaction-based revenues, partially offset by an increase of $186 thousand, or 2%, in asset-based revenues. The linked quarter decrease in transaction-based revenues was largely attributable to tax preparation fee revenue, which is generally recognized in the second quarter.
Wealth management assets under administration were $6.5 billion at September 30, 2018, up by $242 million, or 4%, from the balance at June 30, 2018, with $232 million of net investment appreciation and income and $10 million of net client inflows.
Mortgage banking revenues were $2.6 million for the third quarter of 2018, down by $317 thousand, or 11%, from the preceding quarter. While third quarter results benefited from relatively higher volume of loans sold and sales yield, this was offset by a decrease in fair value adjustments on mortgage loan commitments and loans held for sale. The decrease in fair value adjustments reflected a decline in the mortgage pipeline and corresponding loan commitment balances as of September 30, 2018.
Loan related derivative income was $278 thousand for the third quarter of 2018, down by $390 thousand from the preceding quarter, due to lower transaction volume of commercial borrower loan related derivatives.

Noninterest Expenses
Noninterest expenses totaled $26.1 million for the third quarter of 2018, down by $226 thousand, or 1%, from the second quarter of 2018. The linked quarter comparison of noninterest expenses was impacted by the following:
Included in other expenses in the second quarter of 2018 were software system implementation expenses of $114 thousand primarily related to the conversion of our wealth management accounting system, which was completed in April 2018.

In the third quarter of 2018, a one-time third-party vendor credit of $300 thousand was recognized as a reduction to outsourced services expense in the third quarter.
Excluding the impact of the aforementioned items, noninterest expenses for the third quarter of 2018 were up by $188 thousand or 1%, largely due to an increase in foreclosed property costs.

Income tax expense totaled $4.7 million for the third quarter of 2018, essentially unchanged from the preceding quarter. The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2018 was 21.3%, compared to 21.2% for the preceding quarter.

Investment Securities
The securities portfolio totaled $824 million at September 30, 2018, up by $35 million from the balance at June 30, 2018. The increase reflected purchases of debt securities in the third quarter totaling $65 million, with a weighted average yield of 3.46%. These purchases were partially offset by routine principal pay-downs on mortgage-backed securities and a temporary decline in the fair value of available for sale securities. Investment securities represented 17% of total assets at September 30, 2018.

Loans
Total loans amounted to $3.6 billion at September 30, 2018, up by $66 million, or 2%, from the end of the second quarter. Total commercial loans increased by $47 million, or 3%, reflecting an increase of $25 million in the commercial and industrial ("C&I") portfolio and an increase of $22 million in the commercial real estate portfolio. The residential real estate loan portfolio increased by $22 million, or 2%, from the balance at June 30, 2018, while total consumer loans declined by $3 million, or 1%, from the end of the second quarter.

Deposits and Borrowings
Total deposits amounted to $3.4 billion at September 30, 2018, up by $93 million, or 3%, from the end of the preceding quarter. The increases reflected seasonal inflows of various institutional and governmental depositors based on their underlying business cycles, as well as growth in time certificates of deposit resulting from a promotional campaign that began in April 2018.

Federal Home Loan Bank advances amounted to $828 million at September 30, 2018, down by $73 million from the balance at June 30, 2018, due to growth in deposits.

Asset Quality
Total nonaccrual loans amounted to $10.8 million, or 0.30% of total loans, at September 30, 2018, down from $11.7 million, or 0.34% of total loans, at June 30, 2018. Total past due loans amounted to $13.5 million, or 0.38% of total loans, at September 30, 2018, down from $16.7 million, or 0.48% of total loans, at June 30, 2018.

Based on management's assessment of loan and credit quality metrics, loss exposures and changes in the loan portfolio during the quarter, a loan loss provision totaling $350 thousand was recognized in the third quarter of 2018, compared to a loan loss provision of $400 thousand recognized in the preceding quarter. Net charge-offs were nominal in both the third and second quarter of 2018, totaling $15 thousand and $90 thousand, respectively. The allowance for loan losses amounted to $26.5 million, or 0.75% of total loans, at September 30, 2018, compared to $26.2 million, or 0.75% of total loans, at June 30, 2018.

Capital and Dividends
Total shareholders' equity was $428 million at September 30, 2018, up by $6.3 million from June 30, 2018, reflecting net income of $17.5 million, partially offset by $7.5 million in dividends declared and a $4.0 million reduction in the accumulated comprehensive income component of shareholders' equity primarily due to a temporary decline in the fair value of available for sale securities.

Capital levels at September 30, 2018 exceeded the regulatory minimum levels to be considered well capitalized, with a total risk-based capital ratio of 12.77% at September 30, 2018, compared to 12.61% at June 30, 2018. Book value per share amounted to $24.75 at September 30, 2018, compared to $24.40 at June 30, 2018.

The Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of 43 cents per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2018. The dividend was paid on October 12, 2018 to shareholders of record on October 1, 2018.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains statements that are “forward-looking statements”. We may also make forward-looking statements in other documents we file with the SEC, in our annual reports to shareholders, in press releases and other written materials, and in oral statements made by our officers, directors or employees. You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “assume,” “outlook,” “will,” “should,” and other expressions that predict or indicate future events and trends and which do not relate to historical matters. You should not rely on forward-looking statements, because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. These risks, uncertainties and other factors may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from the anticipated future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

Some of the factors that might cause these differences include the following: weakness in national, regional or international economic conditions or conditions affecting the banking or financial services industries or financial capital markets; volatility in national and international financial markets; reductions in net interest income resulting from interest rate volatility as well as changes in the balance and mix of loans and deposits; reductions in the market value or outflows of wealth management assets under administration; changes in the value of securities and other assets; reductions in loan demand; changes in loan collectibility, default and charge-off rates; changes in the size and nature of our competition; changes in legislation or regulation and accounting principles, policies and guidelines; occurrences of cyberattacks, hacking and identity theft; natural disasters; and changes in the assumptions used in making such forward-looking statements. In addition, the factors described under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, as updated by our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other filings submitted to the SEC, may result in these differences. You should carefully review all of these factors and you should be aware that there may be other factors that could cause these differences. These forward-looking statements were based on information, plans and estimates at the date of this report, and we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, future events or other changes.

Supplemental Information - Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Washington Trust's management believes that the supplemental non-GAAP information, which consists of measurements and ratios based on tangible equity and tangible assets, is utilized by regulators and market analysts to evaluate a company's financial condition and therefore, such information is useful to investors. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may be presented by other companies. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.

The following table presents average balance and interest rate information. Tax-exempt income is converted to a FTE basis using the statutory federal income tax rate adjusted for applicable state income taxes net of the related federal tax benefit. Unrealized gains (losses) on available for sale securities and fair value adjustments on mortgage loans held for sale are excluded from the average balance and yield calculations. Nonaccrual and renegotiated loans, as well as interest recognized on these loans are included in amounts presented for loans. Certain previously reported amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year's presentation.
