Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2016 totaled $11.5 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, compared to $12.8 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2015.

Mark Funke, President and CEO, stated, “Loan growth was solid in the third quarter and there was good improvement in noninterest income. Here are several takeaways from this quarter.

• Total loans grew $58.7 million to $1.9 billion from the second quarter of 2016 and $332.0 million, or 21%, compared to the third quarter of 2015. We funded $98.2 million in new loans during the third quarter of 2016, making this our eleventh consecutive quarter of loan growth.
• The quarterly net interest margin was 3.42% at September 30, 2016, compared to 3.48% at June 30, 2016 and 3.34% at September 30, 2015.
• Pre-tax, pre-provision income was $8.3 million in the third quarter, an increase of 3.9% from $8.0 million in the second quarter of 2016 and an increase of 29.1% from $6.5 million in the third quarter of 2015.
• During the third quarter of 2016, we incurred $0.4 million in restructuring charges for branch closures and personnel reductions.
• The efficiency ratio for the third quarter of 2016 was 66.09%, compared to 65.70% for the second quarter of 2016 and 68.25% for the third quarter of 2015.

“Diluted earnings per share of $0.23 was up 4.5% from the same quarter a year ago. During the third quarter, we initiated the closure of three small branches combined with some personnel reductions. These tough decisions will allow us to operate more efficiently going forward. We will continue to focus our company on producing consistent, conservative, and sustainable earnings through the expansion of our revenue base while prudently managing risk and expenses.”

Third Quarter Results:

Summary:  For the third quarter of 2016, net income was $4.3 million, compared to $5.4 million for the second quarter of 2016 and $4.1 million for the third quarter of 2015. Pre-tax, pre-provision income for the third quarter of 2016 was $8.3 million, compared to $8.0 million for the second quarter of 2016 and $6.4 million for the third quarter of 2015.

The $1.1 million decrease in net income compared to the second quarter of 2016 was primarily due to the $1.7 million provision for loan losses recorded in the third quarter, combined with $0.4 million in restructuring charges. The decrease in net income also includes a $0.1 million increase in net interest income, a $0.7 million increase in noninterest income and a $0.6 million decrease in income taxes, offset in part by a $0.9 million increase in noninterest expense.

The $0.2 million increase in net income compared to the third quarter of 2015 was due to a $3.3 million increase in net interest income and a $0.5 million increase in noninterest income, offset in part by a $1.7 million increase in the provision for loan losses, and a $2.1 million increase in noninterest expense. The increases in net interest income, noninterest income, and noninterest expense are due in part to the First Commercial Bancshares, Inc. acquisition that occurred in the fourth quarter of 2015.

Net Interest Income:  Net interest income totaled $19.8 million for the third quarter of 2016, compared to $19.7 million for the second quarter of 2016 and $16.5 million for the third quarter of 2015. Net interest margin was 3.42% for the third quarter of 2016, compared to 3.48% for the second quarter of 2016 and 3.34% for the third quarter of 2015. Interest income for the third quarter of 2016 and the second quarter of 2016 includes $0.5 million and $0.2 million, of accelerated discount accretion, respectively. The net effects of these adjustments on the net interest margins were a 10 basis point and a 3 basis point increase, respectively, for each quarter. Average loans (including loans held for sale) for the third quarter of 2016 increased $33.2 million when compared to June 30, 2016, and $359.5 million when compared to September 30, 2015. Loans acquired in the fourth quarter of 2015 were $202.4 million. The benefit of the accelerated loan discount accretion was partially reduced by a $0.2 million decrease in interest income on investment securities caused by accelerated premium amortization, resulting from increased prepayment speeds.

Provision (Credit) for Loan Losses and Net Charge-offs:  The provision for loan losses is the amount that is required to maintain the allowance for loan losses at an appropriate level based upon the inherent risks in the loan portfolio after the effects of net charge-offs or net recoveries for the period. The provision for loan losses was a provision of $1.7 million for the third quarter of 2016, compared to a provision of $10,000 for the second quarter of 2016, and a provision of $23,000 for the third quarter of 2015. The third quarter 2016 provision was driven primarily by the growth in the loan portfolio and changes in nonperforming loans. During the third quarter of 2016, net charge-offs totaled $0.1 million, or 0.03% (annualized) of average portfolio loans, compared to net charge-offs of $0.3 million, or 0.07% (annualized) of average portfolio loans for the second quarter of 2016 and net recoveries of $0.4 million, or (0.09%) (annualized) of average portfolio loans for the third quarter of 2015. 

Noninterest Income:  Noninterest income totaled $4.6 million for the third quarter of 2016, compared to $3.9 million for the second quarter of 2016 and $4.0 million for the third quarter of 2015. 

The $0.7 million increase from the second quarter of 2016 is the result of a $0.1 million increase in service charges and fees, a $0.1 million increase in the gain on sales of mortgage loans and a $0.7 million increase in other noninterest income, which is primarily from customer risk management interest rate swap income, partially offset by a $0.2 million decrease in gain on sale of investment securities. Service charges and fees includes a $0.1 million and a $0.2 million impairment on mortgage servicing rights for the third quarter of 2016 and the second quarter of 2016, respectively. Other noninterest income includes a $0.1 million loss on disposition of fixed assets related to branch closures.

The $0.5 million increase from the third quarter of 2015 is the result of a $0.2 million increase in service charges and fees, a $0.2 million increase in the gain on sales of mortgage loans and a $0.1 million increase in other noninterest income, which is primarily from customer risk management interest rate swap income.

Noninterest Expense:  Noninterest expense totaled $16.2 million for the third quarter of 2016, compared to $15.3 million for the second quarter of 2016 and $14.1 million for the third quarter of 2015. 

The $0.9 million increase in noninterest expense from the second quarter of 2016 was due to a $0.2 million increase in personnel expense, a $0.4 million increase in occupancy, a $0.2 million increase in data processing, and a $0.4 million increase in the provision for unfunded loan commitments, offset in part by a $0.2 million decrease in other real estate expenses due to gains on the sales of properties during the quarter. The increase in personnel expense was due to severance and employee benefits, combined with increased mortgage commissions.

The $2.1 million increase in noninterest expense from the third quarter of 2015 consisted of a $1.4 million increase in personnel expense, a $0.8 million increase in occupancy related to branch closures, a $0.1 million increase in data processing and a $0.1 million increase in the provision for unfunded loan commitments, offset in part by a $0.3 million decrease in other real estate expense and a $0.1 million decrease in general and administrative expense.

Income Tax:  Income tax expense totaled $2.2 million for the third quarter of 2016, compared to $2.9 million for the second quarter of 2016 and $2.3 million for the third quarter of 2015.  The income tax expense fluctuates in relation to pre-tax income levels. The third quarter of 2016 effective tax rate was 34.45%, compared to 34.70% for the second quarter of 2016 and 35.84% for the third quarter of 2015. The decline in the effective tax rate includes the impact of an increase in tax exempt income, as a percentage of pre-tax income.

Year-to-Date Results:

Summary:  Net income was $11.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, compared to $12.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2015. The $1.3 million decrease in net income from 2015 is the result of a $9.1 million change in the provision for loan losses and a $6.3 million increase in noninterest expense due to increased personnel, occupancy, and general and administrative expenses, offset in part by an $11.4 million increase in net interest income, a $1.6 million increase in noninterest income, and a $1.1 million decrease in income taxes. The increases in net interest income, noninterest income, and noninterest expense, are due in part to the First Commercial Bancshares, Inc. acquisition that occurred in the fourth quarter of 2015. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2016, was also reduced by the restructuring charges of $0.4 million incurred in the third quarter of 2016.

Net Interest Income:  Net interest income totaled $59.3 million for the first nine months of 2016, compared to $47.9 million for the first nine months of 2015, an increase of $11.4 million. Year-to-date net interest margin was 3.48%, compared to 3.30% for 2015. Interest income for the first nine months of 2016 includes $1.0 million of accelerated discount accretion. The net effect on the net interest margin was a 6 basis point increase for the nine-month period. Average loans (including loans held for sale) as of September 30, 2016 increased $363.2 million when compared to September 30, 2015. Loans acquired in the fourth quarter of 2015 were $202.4 million.

Provision (Credit) for Loan Losses and Net Charge-offs:  The provision for loan losses is the amount of expense that is required to maintain the allowance for losses at an appropriate level based upon the inherent risks in the loan portfolio after the effects of net charge-offs or net recoveries for the period. The provision for loan losses was $6.1 million for the first nine months of 2016, compared to a negative provision of $3.0 million for the first nine months of 2015. The provision for loan losses for the first nine months of 2016 was driven by the growth in the loan portfolio and the impact of low energy prices combined with deterioration in a few general business credits. Net charge-offs totaled $3.8 million, or 0.28% (annualized) of average portfolio loans year-to-date as of September 30, 2016, compared to net recoveries of $1.1 million, or (0.11%) (annualized) of average portfolio loans for the same period in 2015.  

Noninterest Income:  Noninterest income totaled $11.8 million for the first nine months of 2016, compared to $10.3 million for the first nine months of 2015. The increase consists of a $0.5 million increase in service charges and fees, which for the first nine months of 2016 includes a $0.6 million impairment of mortgage servicing rights, a $0.4 million increase in gains on sales of mortgage loans, a $0.1 million increase in the gain on sale of investment securities, and a $0.6 million increase in other noninterest income, which includes income on bank owned life insurance and customer risk management interest rate swap income.

Noninterest Expense:  Noninterest expense totaled $47.4 million for the first nine months of 2016, compared to $41.1 million for the first nine months of 2015. The increase consists of a $4.1 million increase in personnel expense, a $1.7 million increase in occupancy, a $0.2 million increase in data processing, a $0.2 million increase in FDIC and other insurance, a $0.2 million increase in the provision for unfunded loan commitments, and a $0.3 million increase in general and administrative expense, offset in part by a $0.4 million decrease in other real estate expense.

Income Tax:  Income tax expense totaled $6.1 million for the first nine months of 2016, compared to $7.2 million for the first nine months of 2015. The income tax expense fluctuates in relation to pre-tax income levels. The year-to-date effective tax rate was 34.69% as of September 30, 2016, compared to 36.02% as of September 30, 2015. The decline in the effective tax rate includes the impact of an increase in tax exempt income, as a percentage of pre-tax income.
