ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Aug. 01, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Northrim BanCorp, Inc. (NASDAQ:NRIM) (“Northrim” or the "Company") today reported a 29% increase in second quarter net income attributable to the Company compared to the linked quarter primarily due to higher mortgage production.  Net income attributable to the Company decreased 9% in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the same quarter a year ago mainly due to increased operating expenses this year in the community banking segment.  Net income attributable to the Company in the second quarter of 2016 totaled $4.4 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, compared to $4.8 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2015, and $3.4 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2016.  In the first half of 2016, net income attributable to the Company decreased to $7.7 million, or $1.11 per diluted share, compared to $8.3 million, or $1.20 per diluted share in the first half of 2015 mainly due to higher refinancing activity in the home mortgage lending segment in 2015. 

“Slowing loan demand was partially offset by strong mortgage banking income in the second quarter,” said Joseph Beedle, Chairman, President and CEO of the Company. “Our mortgage business continues to generate strong revenues and profits.  In the second quarter, home mortgage lending contributed $8.8 million to pre-tax revenues and $0.22 to net earnings per diluted share, and $14.7 million to pre-tax revenue and $0.30 to net earnings per diluted share in the first half of 2016. 

“The loan portfolio decreased in the second quarter of 2016 compared to both the previous quarter and second quarter of 2015, mostly as a result of the completion of several large commercial construction projects in 2016 that were not fully offset by growth in other areas of the portfolio,” said Beedle.  “Our commercial real estate (“CRE”) loan portfolio (both owner-occupied and investment properties) generated 9% year-over-year growth and accounted for 49% of loans at the end of June 2016.  Construction loans were down 24% in the second quarter of 2016 and 31% year-over-year, primarily due to approximately $35 million in projects which were completed and termed out in the second quarter of 2016 and $74 million which were completed in the last twelve months.  Of these construction loans, $25 million and $46 million converted to the CRE portfolio in the second quarter of 2016 and in the last twelve months, respectively.” 

“The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets, net of government guarantees increased during the second quarter of 2016, primarily due to the addition of two lending relationships to non-accrual loans totaling $8.2 million,” said Joe Schierhorn, Northrim Bank’s CEO, President, and Chief Operating Officer.  “One $5.9 million relationship is related to a residential land development project in the greater Anchorage market.  The loan has been included in adversely classified loans since December 31, 2015.  The other $2.3 million relationship is made up of three loans to a commercial business in the transportation industry, and these loans have been adversely classified loans since March 31, 2016.”

• Year-to-date 2016 net income attributable to the Company totaled $7.7 million, or $1.11 per diluted share, compared to $8.3 million, or $1.20 per diluted share, in the first half of 2015.
• Total revenues, which include net interest income plus total other operating income, increased 11% in the second quarter of 2016 from the previous quarter and 1% from the second quarter a year ago.  Second quarter 2016 revenues were $25.9 million, compared to $23.3 million in the preceding quarter and $25.8 million in the second quarter a year ago.
• Net interest income was down 1% in the second quarter of 2016 compared to both the first quarter of 2016 and the second quarter a year ago, primarily as a result of a decrease in average loan balances from the first quarter of 2016, and a decrease in the yield on portfolio loans compared to the second quarter of 2015.
• Other operating income increased 30% to $11.9 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the previous quarter and accounted for 46% of total revenues in the current quarter.  In the preceding quarter, other operating income was $9.1 million and 39% of total revenues, and was $11.6 million and 45%, respectively, in the second quarter a year ago.
• NIM decreased slightly to 4.21% in the second quarter of 2016 compared to 4.23% in the first quarter of 2016 and 4.37% in the second quarter a year ago, while tax equivalent NIM^* also declined compared to those periods, but still remained above peer average¹ at 4.27% in the second quarter of 2016.  The decrease in both NIM and tax equivalent NIM* in the current quarter compared to the year ago quarter is primarily the result of the increase in lower-yielding securities in the mix of interest earning assets.

¹As of March 31, 2016, the SNL US Bank Index tracked 331 banks with averages for the following ratios:  NIM (tax equivalent) 2.77%, return on average assets 0.88%, and return on average equity 7.67% 

• Northrim paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.19 per share in June 2016, up from the $0.18 per share dividend paid in June 2015.  The dividend provides an annual yield of approximately 2.7% at current market share prices.
• Book value per share increased to $26.75 at the end of the second quarter of 2016 compared to $26.23 at the end of the previous quarter and $24.96 at the end of the second quarter of 2015. Tangible book value^*  increased to $23.30 per share at June 30, 2016, compared to $22.78 per share at March 31, 2016, and $21.47 per share a year ago, mainly as a result of a steady contribution from earnings less cash dividends paid.
• Northrim remains well-capitalized with Tier 1 Capital to Risk Adjusted Assets of 13.85% at June 30, 2016, compared to 13.66% at March 31, 2016, and 12.67% a year ago.
• Total shareholders' equity to total assets was 12.12% at the end of the second quarter of 2016 compared to 12.02% at the end of the prior quarter and 11.40% at the end of the second quarter of 2015, while tangible common equity to tangible assets^* was 10.72% at June 30, 2016, compared to 10.61% at March 31, 2016, and 9.97% a year ago.

 Alaska Economic Update

“Employment in the Alaska economy was essentially flat during the first half of 2016, which represents a more moderate overall impact from the decrease in the global price of oil compared to what other energy producing regions in the nation have experienced thus far,” said Beedle.  According to the Alaska Department of Labor, preliminary data shows that average employment in the State of Alaska in 2016 decreased 0.1% in the first six months of 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015, as job losses in the oil and gas industry, construction, state government and professional and business services have been partially offset by growth in retail trade, health care, and leisure and hospitality jobs. "As the Alaska economy has slowed, our loan demand has also slowed moderately.  However, we believe our pipeline of loans for underwriting remains healthy," said Beedle. 

“We believe our state government is having difficulty addressing the state’s fiscal deficit issues, which we believe can be funded from draws from Alaska’s substantial reserves for no more than three additional years.  We also believe that systemic reductions in government expenses, increased taxation, and use of earnings from the Alaska Permanent Fund provide opportunities for the State of Alaska to fund its deficit.  We believe that Alaska has been more resilient than other energy dependent states, because we did not have an overheated energy sector or an overbuilt housing market when energy and commodities prices began to fall,” Beedle continued. 

Review of Income Statement 

Consolidated Income Statement 

In the period ending June 30, 2016, Northrim generated a return on average assets of 1.17% and a return on average equity of 9.42%, as compared to a 0.88% return on average assets and 7.67% return on average equity posted by the 331 banks that make up the SNL U.S. Bank Index.  Similarly, our NIM and tax equivalent NIM* for the second quarter of 2016 were 4.21% and 4.27% compared to 2.77% tax equivalent for the index peers. ¹ 

Net Interest Income/Net Interest Margin 

Net interest income decreased 1% to $14.1 million in the second quarter of 2016 as compared to $14.2 million in both the previous and year ago quarters, primarily due to a decrease in average loan balances from the first quarter of 2016, and a decrease in the yield on portfolio loans compared to the second quarter of 2015.  Net interest income increased 2% in the first half of 2016 to $28.3 million compared to $27.8 million in the first half of 2015, primarily due to reduced interest expense on borrowings as well as higher average portfolio loan balances on a year-to-date basis, which was only partially offset by lower yields. 

NIM and tax equivalent NIM* decreased in the second quarter of 2016 compared to linked quarter and compared to the second quarter of 2015, and also decreased for the first six months of 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015. “We have experienced a gradual decline in our NIM primarily as a result of the flattening of the yield curve, lower loan balances, and higher securities holdings,” said Schierhorn. 

The Company's tax equivalent NIM*, which is primarily comprised of activities in the community banking segment, remained well above the average for the 331 banks in the SNL U.S. Bank Index of 2.77% as of March 31, 2016.  “We are continuing to forecast tax equivalent NIM^* stabilizing in the 4.20% to 4.30% range, regardless of interim changes in Fed Funds rates.  We believe tax equivalent NIM should benefit once interest rates rise another 50 basis points or the yield curve steepens, and would be adversely affected if rates continue to fall and the yield curve continues to flatten,” said Latosha Frye, Chief Financial Officer. 

Provision for Loan Losses 

The provision for loan losses decreased to $200,000 in the second quarter of 2016 from $703,000 in the first quarter of 2016 and $376,000 in the second quarter of 2015. The decrease is primarily due to lack of growth in the loan portfolio. Although there were increases in adversely classified loans and nonperforming loans in the second quarter, there was no significant additional impairment on these loans during the quarter.  The allowance for loan losses to portfolio loans at the end of the second quarter of 2016 increased to 1.90% from 1.87% at March 31, 2016 and 1.79% at June 30, 2015. 

Other Operating Income 

In addition to home mortgage lending, Northrim has interests in other businesses that complement its core community banking activities.  It provides financial services to businesses and individuals through these interests, including purchased receivables financing, employee benefit plans, and wealth management.  These complementary business activities contributed $1.5 million, or 6% of total revenues in the second quarter of 2016, in the first quarter of 2016, and in the second quarter a year ago. 

Other operating income on a consolidated basis grew 30% to $11.9 million, or 46% of total second quarter 2016 revenues, up from $9.1 million, or 39% of first quarter 2016 revenues, and grew 3% from $11.6 million, or 45% of second quarter 2015 revenues.  Strong contributions from the home mortgage lending segment in the current quarter was the primary reason for the increase in other operating income as compared to both prior periods, which offset modest declines in other revenue items.  On a year-to-date basis, other operating income decreased 5% to $21.0 million from $22.1 million in the first half of 2015, primarily due to high refinancing activity in the first quarter of 2015.

Other Operating Expenses 

Operating expenses increased to $19.4 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to $17.4 million in the first quarter of 2016 and $17.8 million in the second quarter of 2015.  The increase from the previous quarters was primarily the result of higher salaries and other personnel expenses combined with the increase in the fair value of the earn-out liability associated with the acquisition of Residential Mortgage Holding Company, LLC ("RML"), increased expenses associated with other real estate owned ("OREO") assets, and a $358,000 loss on the sale of one branch location.   The Company sold one branch, but simultaneously entered into a long-term lease of the same branch location in the second quarter of 2016.  While this transaction generated a loss on sale in the current quarter, management believes that leasing this location will be cost effective and operationally more efficient than owning the property in the longer term. 

Community Banking 

Net income attributable to the Company for the community banking segment totaled $2.8 million in the second quarter of 2016, relatively consistent with the preceding quarter and a decrease compared to $3.4 million in the second quarter a year ago.  Flat loan growth and higher operating expenses primarily accounted for the year-over-year decline.  In addition to the $358,000 loss on the sale of one branch location in the second quarter of 2016, operating expenses increased in the second quarter of 2016 as compared to the same quarter last year mainly due to increased salaries and medical costs as well as an increase in OREO expenses primarily due to a market valuation adjustment of $130,000 for one commercial property in a remote location in Alaska.  Year-to-date, net income attributable to the Company for the community banking segment totaled $5.6 million, or $0.81 per diluted share for the first six months of both 2016 and 2015.  Increased personnel costs of $1.3 million in the first half of 2016, mainly consisting of salary and medical expenses, were offset by a decrease of $1.3 million in the expenses related to the earn-out liability associated with the acquisition of RML. 

"RML continues to outperform our original projections made when we purchased the business at the end of 2014.  This quarter, and for the year, RML's net income attributable to the Company again exceeded our original estimates, though to a lesser degree than through the first half of 2015,” said Frye.  The earn-out payments related to the acquisition of RML are an obligation of Northrim Bank and are therefore included in the community banking segment results.

Home Mortgage Lending 

“Second quarter 2016 mortgage lending volumes increased as compared to the first quarter, which is a normal seasonal fluctuation, with refinancing activity accounting for 18% of total loans funded in the quarter.  Refinancing activity accounted for 16% of loans funded in the first quarter of 2016 and 20% of second quarter 2015 production,” said Schierhorn. “With interest rates remaining at historically low levels, mortgage demand continues to be stable.  Commitments for new mortgages grew 18% from the preceding quarter and 13% from the second quarter a year ago." 

In the fourth quarter of 2015, Northrim began servicing the loans RML originates for the Alaska Housing Finance Corporation, which account for approximately 20% of loans originated by RML in 2016. Northrim now services 833 loans in its $193 million servicing portfolio.  Servicing income contributed $510,000 to second quarter mortgage banking income, compared to $701,000 for the first quarter of 2016 and $30,000 for the first quarter 2015. 

Operating expenses in the home mortgage lending segment increased to $6.1 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to $4.9 million in the first quarter. “The increase in our operating expenses for the home mortgage lending segment in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the previous quarter is primarily the result of higher commission costs, which increase when production increases,” said Frye.

Balance Sheet Review 

Northrim’s assets increased 1% to $1.52 billion at June 30, 2016, compared to $1.50 billion a year ago, mainly as a result of an increase in investments from increasing deposit balances. 

Average investment securities increased 1% from the preceding quarter and increased 28% from a year ago.  The investment portfolio generated an average net tax equivalent yield of 1.44% for the second quarter of 2016 and the average estimated duration of the investment portfolio was 1.2 years at June 30, 2016. 

Average loans held for sale increased 28% to $48.8 million in the second quarter of 2016 compared to the linked quarter, primarily reflecting the seasonality of the mortgage business and the sustained demand for home loans in the Alaska marketplace but decreased 26% from a year ago mainly due to less refinance activity in 2016. 

Year-over-year, portfolio loans declined 1% to $967.3 million at June 30, 2016, and average portfolio loans increased 2% in the first half of 2016 from a year ago. Construction and land development loans, which are by nature short-term, fell 24% in the second quarter of 2016 and 31% year-over year.  Partially offsetting this decline was the increase in commercial real estate projects which grew 3% in the second quarter of 2016 and 9% year-over-year. 

Alaskans account for substantially all of Northrim’s deposit base, which is primarily made up of low-cost transaction accounts.  Balances in transaction accounts at June 30, 2016, represented 89% of total deposits.  At June 30, 2016, total deposits were $1.26 billion, up slightly from $1.24 billion a year ago and $1.25 billion from the immediate prior quarter.  Year-over-year, average non-interest bearing deposits grew 8% in 2016 and average interest-bearing deposits increased 3%, bringing average total deposits up 4% to $1.24 billion for the second quarter of 2016 compared to $1.19 billion in the second quarter a year ago. 

Other borrowings declined to $4.4 million at June 30, 2016, down substantially from $22.3 million at June 30, 2015, as Northrim is now funding RML's short term borrowings from its internally generated liquidity. 

Shareholders’ equity increased 8% to $184.0 million, or $26.75 per share, at June 30, 2016, compared to $171.1 million, or $24.96 per share, a year ago.  Tangible book value per share^* was $23.30 at June 30, 2016 compared to $21.47 per share a year ago.  Northrim remains well-capitalized with Tier 1 Capital to Risk Adjusted Assets of 13.85% at June 30, 2016. 

Asset Quality 

“While adversely classified assets remain elevated at the end of the second quarter as compared to one year ago, we had a decrease in charge-offs in the second quarter of 2016 and did not have any charge-offs related to the oil sector,” said Schierhorn.  The following table details loan charge-offs, by industry:

At June 30, 2016, nonperforming assets, net of government guarantees, increased to 0.80% of total assets from 0.29% at the end of the preceding quarter and 0.41% a year ago.  Net non-performing loans were 1.00% of portfolio loans compared to 0.17% at the end of the preceding quarter and 0.35% a year ago.  These increases are primarily the result of the increase in nonaccrual loans that was discussed on page 1.

Performing restructured loans, that were not included in nonaccrual loans at the end of the first quarter of 2016, improved to $11.2 million at the end of the second quarter from $11.6 million at the end of the previous quarter, but grew from $5.7 million at the end of the second quarter a year ago, primarily due to a single lending relationship for a medical business that was restructured in the fourth quarter of 2015. The maturities of these loans were extended to allow the amortization schedules for the loans to more closely mirror the cash flow of this business.  Borrowers who are in financial difficulty and who have been granted concessions that may include interest rate reductions, term extensions, or payment alterations are categorized as restructured loans. The Company presents restructured loans that are performing separately from those that are classified as nonaccrual to provide more information on this category of loans and to differentiate between accruing performing and nonperforming restructured loans.  At June 30, 2016, performing restructured loans plus nonperforming loans, net of government guarantees, increased to 1.54% of total assets from 1.07% at the end of the preceding quarter and 0.80% a year ago. 

OREO remained consistent with prior periods at $2.6 million at the end of the second quarter of 2016, compared to $2.7 million the preceding quarter and $2.8 million a year ago. 

The allowance for loan losses was 1.90% of portfolio loans at June 30, 2016, compared to 1.87% at March 31, 2016, and 1.79% at the end of the second quarter of 2015.  Adversely classified loans totaled $41.1 million, or 4% of portfolio loans, at the end of the second quarter of 2016, compared to 4% at March 31, 2016, and 2% at the end of the second quarter of 2015.  Adversely classified loans are loans that Northrim has classified as substandard, doubtful, and loss, net of government guarantees.  As of June 30, 2016, $30.5 million, or 84% of adversely classified loans net of government guarantees are attributable to four relationships in the following sectors; one retail commercial business, one commercial real estate construction project, one medical business, and one residential land development project. 

Northrim estimates that $41.8 million, or approximately 4% of portfolio loans as of June 30, 2016, have direct exposure to the oil and gas industry in Alaska, and $4.2 million of these loans are adversely classified.  Northrim has an additional $45.7 million in unfunded commitments to companies with direct exposure to the oil and gas industry in Alaska, and none of these unfunded commitments are applicable to adversely classified loans.  “We currently have no loans to oil producers or exploration companies," said Frye.  "We define direct exposure to the oil and gas sector as loans to borrowers that provide oilfield services and other companies that we have identified as significantly reliant upon activity in Alaska related to the oil and gas industry, such as lodging, equipment rental, transportation and other logistics services specific to this industry."

Tangible Common Equity to Tangible Assets

Tangible common equity to tangible assets is a non-GAAP ratio that represents total equity less goodwill and intangible assets divided by total assets less goodwill and intangible assets. This ratio has received more attention over the past several years from stock analysts and regulators.  The most comparable GAAP measure of shareholders' equity to total assets is calculated by dividing total shareholders' equity by total assets.
