SOUTHSIDE BANCSHARES, INC.
ANNOUNCES FINANCIAL RESULTS FOR THE
THREE AND NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2018
AND STOCK REPURCHASE PLAN
NASDAQ Global Select Market Symbol - “SBSI”


Tyler, Texas, (October 26, 2018) Southside Bancshares, Inc. (“Southside” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:SBSI) today reported its financial results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.
Southside reported net income of $20.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $5.8 million, or 39.9%, compared to $14.5 million for the same period in 2017. Southside reported net income of $56.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $12.8 million, or 29.0%, compared to $44.0 million for the same period in 2017.
Earnings per diluted common share increased $0.09, or 18.4%, to $0.58 for the three months ended September 30, 2018, from $0.49 for the same period in 2017. Earnings per diluted common share increased $0.12, or 8.1%, to $1.61 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, from $1.49 for the same period in 2017.
The return on average shareholders’ equity for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was 10.06%, compared to 10.87% for the same period in 2017.  The return on average assets was 1.21% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to 1.05% for the same period in 2017.
“Highlights for the quarter included record third quarter net income and an efficiency ratio below 50% for a second consecutive quarter,” stated Lee R. Gibson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Southside. “We reported net income of $20.3 million, an efficiency ratio of 48.91% and recorded a slight increase in total loans during the third quarter. We also recorded a $741,000 net loss on the sale of available for sale securities and acquisition costs related to the Diboll transaction of $437,000. These expenses were partially offset by a discrete tax benefit of approximately $800,000 recorded during the third quarter associated with the revision of our deferred taxes as a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act passed in December 2017. At this time, we expect fourth quarter acquisition expense to be minimal.”
“During the third quarter we experienced a slight increase in our loans of $3.6 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, loans decreased $19.8 million, which in part, was responsible for the five basis point decrease in our net interest margin on a linked quarter basis. While we believe our loan pipeline remains solid for the remainder of the year with a number of loans expected to fund, we also expect a number of payoffs in the fourth quarter, which may offset most if not all of the loans funded. Economic conditions in our East Texas markets remain solid and the Austin and DFW markets continue to experience robust economies, driven by company relocations and overall population growth.”
“On October 25, 2018 the Company's Board of Directors approved a Stock Repurchase Plan. The Board authorized the repurchase, from time to time, of up to 1,500,000 shares of common stock in open market purchases and privately negotiated transactions at prevailing market prices. We believe repurchasing shares in a company we know quite well, Southside Bancshares, Inc., at current market prices, is prudent. The Company has no obligation to repurchase any shares under the Stock Repurchase Plan and may suspend or discontinue it at any time.”
Loans and Deposits
For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, total loans decreased by $19.8 million, or 0.6%, to $3.27 billion, compared to December 31, 2017. The net decrease in our loans was comprised of decreases of $46.4 million of commercial real estate loans, $23.2 million of loans to individuals, $14.1 million of 1-4 family residential loans and $1.0 million of municipal loans, partially offset by increases of $56.5 million of commercial loans and $8.4 million of construction loans.
Nonperforming assets increased during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 by $29.2 million, or 278.5%, to $39.6 million, or 0.65% of total assets, compared to $10.5 million, or 0.16% of total assets at December 31, 2017, primarily due to the addition of two commercial real estate relationships consisting of three loans to nonaccrual status during the first quarter.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the allowance for loan losses increased by $5.3 million, or 25.6%, to $26.1 million, or 0.80% of total loans, compared to 0.63% of total loans at December 31, 2017. The increase in the allowance was primarily the result of additional provision recorded on the commercial real estate loans placed on nonaccrual status in the first quarter as well as the increase in the impairments on purchased credit impaired loans acquired in connection with the acquisition of Diboll State Bancshares, Inc. in November 2017.





During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, deposits, net of brokered deposits, decreased $110.0 million, or 2.5%, compared to December 31, 2017, due primarily to the decrease in public fund deposits of $102.2 million.

Net Interest Income for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2018
Net interest income increased $7.5 million, or 21.3%, to $42.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $35.0 million for the same period in 2017. The increase in net interest income was the result of a $10.7 million increase in interest income primarily from our loan portfolio, partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $3.2 million associated with interest expense on our deposits, compared to the same period in 2017.
For the three months ended September 30, 2018, our net interest margin (FTE) increased to 3.14%, compared to 3.02% for the same period in 2017. The increase in net interest margin (FTE) was due primarily to the change in the mix of earning assets as a result of the acquisition of Diboll and the decrease in the securities portfolio during 2018, as well as an increase in the average yields on earning assets, partially offset by higher average rates paid on interest bearing liabilities. The increase in average yields and rates paid was primarily due to rising interest rates during 2017 and 2018. Our net interest spread (FTE) was 2.82% for both the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.
Net Interest Income for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018
Net interest income increased $24.0 million, or 22.7%, to $129.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, compared to $105.7 million for the same period in 2017. The increase in net interest income was the result of a $33.8 million increase in interest income primarily from our loan portfolio, partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $9.8 million associated with interest expense on our deposits, compared to the same period in 2017.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, our net interest margin (FTE) increased to 3.17%, compared to 3.06% for the same period in 2017. The increase in net interest margin (FTE) was due primarily to the change in the mix of earning assets as a result of the acquisition of Diboll and the decrease in the securities portfolio during 2018, as well as an increase in the average yields on earning assets, partially offset by higher average rates paid on interest bearing liabilities. The increase in average yields and rates paid was primarily due to rising interest rates during 2017 and 2018. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, our net interest spread (FTE) increased slightly to 2.89%, compared to 2.88% for the same period in 2017.
Net Income for the Three Months Ended September 30, 2018
Net income increased $5.8 million, or 39.9%, for the three months ended September 30, 2018, to $20.3 million compared to the same period in 2017. The increase was the result of a $10.7 million increase in interest income, a $1.7 million decrease in income tax expense and a $0.6 million increase in noninterest income, partially offset by a $4.0 million increase in noninterest expense and a $3.2 million increase in interest expense.
Excluding net (loss) gain on sale of securities, noninterest income increased $2.0 million, or 22.6%, for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017. The increase in deposit services and trust income was largely related to the acquisition of Diboll. The increase in other noninterest income was primarily due to increases in swap fee income, mortgage servicing fee income and letter of credit fees. In connection with the adoption of Accounting Standards Update 2014-09 (“ASU 2014-09”) revenue recognition guidance effective January 1, 2018, debit card expense and brokerage service expense for the three months ended September 30, 2018, previously reported in ATM and debit card expense and other noninterest expense are now netted with deposit services income and brokerage services income, respectively. Due to the guidance under the modified retrospective method, prior periods have not been adjusted and therefore, are not comparable.
Noninterest expense increased $4.0 million, or 15.8%, for the three months ended September 30, 2018, compared to the same period in 2017. The increase in most of our noninterest expense categories is directly attributable to the integration of Diboll into our operations.
Income tax expense decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017, due to a discrete tax benefit of approximately $800,000 and a reduced tax rate, both in connection with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which resulted in a lower effective tax rate of 9.7% compared to 21.1% for the same period in 2017. The discrete tax benefit was the result of a remeasurement of our net deferred tax asset. Excluding the net impact of discrete tax items, our effective tax rate was approximately 13.6% and 22.3% for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.





Net Income for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018
Net income increased $12.8 million, or 29.0%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, to $56.8 million compared to the same period in 2017. The increase was primarily the result of a $33.8 million increase in interest income, a $2.6 million decrease in income tax expense and a $2.3 million increase in noninterest income, partially offset by a $13.5 million increase in noninterest expense, a $9.8 million increase in interest expense and a $2.6 million increase in provision for loan losses.
Excluding net (loss) gain on sale of securities, noninterest income increased $5.0 million, or 18.3%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017. Deposit services and trust income increased and were partially offset by a decrease in gain on sale of loans. The increase in both deposit services income and trust income was largely related to the acquisition of Diboll. With the adoption of ASU 2014-09, debit card expense and brokerage service expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, previously reported in ATM and debit card expense and other noninterest expense, are now netted with deposit services income and brokerage services income, respectively. Due to the guidance under the modified retrospective method, prior periods have not been adjusted and therefore, are not comparable.
Noninterest expense increased $13.5 million, or 17.7%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, to $89.9 million, compared to the same period in 2017. The increase in most of our noninterest expense categories was directly attributable to the integration of Diboll into our operations.
Income tax expense decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to the same period in 2017, due to a discrete tax benefit of approximately $800,000 and a reduced tax rate, both in connection with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which resulted in a lower effective tax rate of 11.9% compared to 18.9% for the same period in 2017. The discrete tax benefit was the result of a remeasurement of our net deferred tax asset. Excluding the net impact of discrete tax items, our effective tax rate was approximately 13.4% and 19.9% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Our accounting and reporting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) in the United States and prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, certain non-GAAP measures are used by management to supplement the evaluation of our performance. These include the following fully taxable-equivalent measures (FTE): (i) Net interest income (FTE), (ii) Net interest margin (FTE), (iii) Net interest spread (FTE), and (iv) Efficiency ratio (FTE), which include the effects of taxable-equivalent adjustments using a federal income tax rate of 21% and 35% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, to increase tax-exempt interest income to a tax-equivalent basis. Interest income earned on certain assets is completely or partially exempt from federal income tax. As such, these tax-exempt instruments typically yield lower returns than taxable investments.
Net interest income (FTE), Net interest margin (FTE) and Net interest spread (FTE). Net interest income (FTE) is a non-GAAP measure that adjusts for the tax-favored status of net interest income from certain loans and investments. We believe this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income and it enhances comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is our net interest income. Net interest margin (FTE) is the ratio of net interest income (FTE) to average earning assets. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is our net interest margin. Net interest spread (FTE) is the difference in the average yield on average earning assets on a tax-equivalent basis and the average rate paid on average interest bearing liabilities. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is our net interest spread.
Efficiency ratio (FTE).  The efficiency ratio (FTE) is a non-GAAP measure that provides a measure of productivity in the banking industry. This ratio is calculated to measure the cost of generating one dollar of revenue. The ratio is designed to reflect the percentage of one dollar which must be expended to generate that dollar of revenue. We calculate this ratio by dividing noninterest expense, excluding amortization of intangibles and certain nonrecurring expense by the sum of net interest income (FTE) and noninterest income, excluding gains (losses) on sales of available for sale securities and certain nonrecurring impairments. The most directly comparable financial measure calculated in accordance with GAAP is our efficiency ratio.





These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered alternatives to GAAP-basis financial statements and other bank holding companies may define or calculate these non-GAAP measures or similar measures differently. Whenever we present a non-GAAP financial measure in an SEC filing, we are also required to present the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP and reconcile the differences between the non-GAAP financial measure and such comparable GAAP measure.

In the following table we present, for the five quarterly periods ended September 30, 2018 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the reconciliation of net interest income to net interest income adjusted to a fully taxable-equivalent basis assuming a 21% marginal tax rate for the 2018 quarterly and nine month periods and a 35% marginal tax rate for the 2017 quarterly and nine month periods for interest earned on tax-exempt assets such as municipal loans and investment securities (dollars in thousands), along with the calculation of total revenue, adjusted noninterest expense, efficiency ratio (FTE), net interest margin (FTE) and net interest spread (FTE).

For the purpose of calculating the average yield, the average balance of securities is presented at historical cost.

Note: As of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, loans totaling $32.5 million and $35.4 million, respectively, were on nonaccrual status. Our policy is to reverse previously accrued but unpaid interest on nonaccrual loans; thereafter, interest income is recorded to the extent received when appropriate.
