Chemical Financial Corporation Reports 2017 Second Quarter Operating Results

MIDLAND, Mich., July 25, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Chemical Financial Corporation ("Corporation" or "Chemical") (NASDAQ:CHFC) today announced 2017 second quarter net income of $52.0 million, or $0.73 per diluted share, compared to 2017 first quarter net income of $47.6 million, or $0.67 per diluted share and 2016 second quarter net income of $25.8 million, or $0.67 per diluted share. Excluding transaction expenses and the change in fair value in loan servicing rights ("significant items"), net income in the second quarter of 2017 was $53.5 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, compared to $50.7 million, or $0.71 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2017 and $27.8 million, or $0.72 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2016.(1)

During the second quarter of 2017, significant items included transaction expenses of $0.5 million and a $1.8 million detriment to earnings due to the change in fair value in loan servicing rights, compared to transaction expenses of $4.2 million and a $0.5 million detriment to earnings due to the change in fair value in loan servicing rights in the first quarter of 2017. Transaction expenses for the second quarter of 2016 were $3.1 million.

"We are encouraged by the underlying trends this quarter including improved operating expense trends, fee income and quality loan growth," noted David T. Provost, Chief Executive Officer of Chemical Financial Corporation and Thomas C. Shafer, Vice Chairman of the Corporation and Chief Executive Officer of Chemical Bank. "Going forward, we will seek to further improve our fundamentals by carefully assessing how we allocate capital and focusing on strategies to enhance revenue growth while continuing to improve our operating efficiency."

The Corporation's return on average assets was 1.14% during the second quarter of 2017, compared to 1.09% during the first quarter of 2017 and 1.10% in the second quarter of 2016. The Corporation's return on average shareholders' equity was 8.0% in the second quarter of 2017, compared to 7.4% during the first quarter of 2017 and 10.0% in the second quarter of 2016. Excluding significant items, the Corporation's return on average assets was 1.17% during the second quarter of 2017, compared to 1.16% during the first quarter of 2017 and 1.19% in the second quarter of 2016 and the Corporation's return on average shareholders' equity was 8.2% in the second quarter of 2017, compared to 7.8% during the first quarter of 2017 and 10.7% in the second quarter of 2016. The Corporation's return on average tangible shareholders' equity was 14.3% in the second quarter of 2017, compared to 13.3% during the first quarter of 2017 and 14.3% in the second quarter of 2016. Excluding significant items, the Corporation's return on average tangible equity was 14.7% in the second quarter of 2017, compared to 14.2% during the first quarter of 2017 and 15.4% in the second quarter of 2016.(2)

Net interest income was $137.9 million in the second quarter of 2017, $7.9 million, or 6.0%, higher than the first quarter of 2017 and $60.5 million, or 78.0%, higher than the second quarter of 2016. The higher net interest income in the second quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter of 2017 was driven by the positive impact of organic loan growth, an increase in the investment securities portfolio, an increase in interest accretion from purchase accounting discounts on acquired loans, and one additional day in the quarter. These benefits to net interest income were partially offset by the interest expense impact of increases in short-term borrowings and deposits. The increase in net interest income in the second quarter of 2017 over the second quarter of 2016 was primarily attributable to loans acquired in the merger with Talmer Bancorp, Inc. ("Talmer") and organic loan growth. The Corporation experienced net organic loan growth of $394.0 million during the second quarter of 2017 and $1.14 billion during the twelve months ended June 30, 2017. The merger with Talmer added $4.88 billion of loans on August 31, 2016.

The net interest margin was 3.41% in both the second quarter of 2017 and the first quarter of 2017, compared to 3.60% in the second quarter of 2016. The net interest margin (on a tax-equivalent basis) was 3.48% in the second quarter of 2017, compared to 3.49% in the first quarter of 2017 and 3.70% in the second quarter of 2016.(3) The net interest margin (on a tax-equivalent basis) in the second quarter of 2017, compared to the first quarter of 2017, was compressed due to an increase in the investment securities portfolio funded by an increase in short-term borrowings. This compression was offset by an increase of 11 basis points in yield on total loans in the second quarter of 2017 to 4.22%, compared to the first quarter of 2017, primarily due to an increase of interest accretion from purchase accounting discounts on acquired loans and an increase in the average coupon rates on loans. 

The provision for loan losses was $6.2 million in the second quarter of 2017, compared to $4.1 million in the first quarter of 2017 and $3.0 million in the second quarter of 2016. The increase in the provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2017, compared to both the first quarter of 2017 and the second quarter of 2016, was primarily the result of an increase in organic growth in the loan portfolio. Originated loan growth was $699.9 million in the second quarter of 2017, compared to $501.4 million in the first quarter of 2017. The growth in the originated loan portfolio was partially offset by run-off in the acquired loan portfolio of $305.9 million in the second quarter of 2017, compared to $218.8 million in the first quarter of 2017. It is important to note that the acquired loan portfolio was adjusted to the fair value of loans at each respective acquisition date and, as of June 30, 2017, no allowance has been recorded for this population of loans. Therefore, the run-off of acquired loans does not result in the reduction of allowance.

Net loan charge-offs were $1.2 million, or 0.04% of average loans, in the second quarter of 2017, compared to $3.5 million, or 0.11% of average loans, in the first quarter of 2017 and $1.8 million, or 0.10% of average loans, in the second quarter of 2016. Net loan charge-offs in the first quarter of 2017 included $1.5 million of losses from one commercial loan relationship.

The Corporation's nonperforming loans totaled $50.9 million at June 30, 2017, compared to $47.8 million at March 31, 2017 and $44.0 million at June 30, 2016. Nonperforming loans comprised 0.37% of total loans at June 30, 2017, compared to 0.36% at March 31, 2017 and 0.58% at June 30, 2016. The decrease in the percentage of nonperforming loans to total loans at June 30, 2017, compared to June 30, 2016, was primarily due to $4.88 billion of total loans added as a result of the merger with Talmer, as none of these loans are classified as nonperforming after the merger date since they are recorded in loan pools at their estimated net realizable value in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

At June 30, 2017, the allowance for loan losses of the originated loan portfolio was $83.8 million, or 0.97% of originated loans, compared to $78.8 million, or 0.99% of originated loans, at March 31, 2017 and $71.5 million, or 1.12% of originated loans, at June 30, 2016. The reduction in allowance for loan losses as a percentage of originated loans primarily reflects overall credit improvement. The allowance for loan losses of the originated loan portfolio as a percentage of nonperforming loans was 164.7% at both June 30, 2017 and March 31, 2017, compared to 162.5% at June 30, 2016.

Noninterest income was $41.6 million in the second quarter of 2017, compared to $38.0 million in the first quarter of 2017 and $20.9 million in the second quarter of 2016. Noninterest income in the second quarter of 2017 increased compared to the first quarter of 2017, primarily due to a $1.1 million increase in wealth management revenue. Net gain on sale of loans and other mortgage banking revenue also increased $0.7 million and included a $1.8 million detriment to earnings due to a change in fair value in loan servicing rights in the second quarter of 2017, compared to a $0.5 million detriment in the first quarter of 2017. Noninterest income in the second quarter of 2017 was higher than the second quarter of 2016 due primarily to incremental revenue resulting from the merger with Talmer.

Operating expenses were $98.2 million in the second quarter of 2017, compared to $104.2 million in the first quarter of 2017 and $59.1 million in the second quarter of 2016. Operating expenses included transaction expenses of $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2017, $4.2 million in the first quarter of 2017 and $3.1 million in the second quarter of 2016. Excluding these transaction expenses, operating expenses were $97.8 million in the second quarter of 2017, compared to $100.0 million in the first quarter of 2017 and $56.0 million in the second quarter of 2016.(4) The decrease in operating expenses, excluding transaction expenses, in the second quarter of 2017, compared to the first quarter of 2017 was primarily due to a decrease of $7.6 million in salaries, wages and employee benefits expenses, aided by a decrease in payroll taxes mostly attributable to stock option exercises during the first quarter of 2017 and an increase in the deferral of loan origination costs due to increased loan production and revised loan origination costs based on an updated loan origination cost study. The increase in operating expenses, excluding transaction expenses, in the second quarter of 2017, compared to the second quarter of 2016, was primarily attributable to incremental expenses resulting from the merger with Talmer.

The effective tax rate was 30.7% in the second quarter of 2017, compared to 20.5% in the first quarter of 2017 and 29.0% in the second quarter of 2016. The tax rate for the first quarter of 2017 benefited from stock option exercises that occurred in the first quarter of 2017.

The efficiency ratio is a measure of operating expenses as a percentage of net interest income and noninterest income. The Corporation's efficiency ratio was 54.7% in the second quarter of 2017, compared to 62.0% in the first quarter of 2017 and 60.1% in the second quarter of 2016. The Corporation's adjusted efficiency ratio, which excludes significant items, amortization of intangibles and net gains on sales of branches, closed branch locations and investment securities, was 52.2% in the second quarter of 2017, compared to 57.4% in the first quarter of 2017 and 54.6% in the second quarter of 2016.(5)

Total assets were $18.78 billion at June 30, 2017, compared to $17.64 billion at March 31, 2017 and $9.51 billion at June 30, 2016. The increase in total assets during the three months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily attributable to an increase in investment securities available-for-sale and loan growth that was funded by an increase in short-term FHLB advances. During the quarter, the investment securities portfolio grew by $490.0 million to $2.41 billion at June 30, 2017.  The increase in total assets during the twelve months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily attributable to the merger with Talmer, organic loan growth and an increase in investment securities available-for-sale.

Total loans were $13.67 billion at June 30, 2017, an increase of $394.0 million, or 3.0%, from total loans of $13.27 billion at March 31, 2017 and an increase of $6.02 billion, or 78.7%, from total loans of $7.65 billion at June 30, 2016. The Corporation experienced organic loan growth of $394.0 million during the second quarter of 2017 and $1.14 billion during the twelve months ended June 30, 2017. The Corporation added $4.88 billion of loans as part of the merger with Talmer on August 31, 2016.

Total deposits were $13.20 billion at June 30, 2017, compared to $13.13 billion at March 31, 2017 and $7.46 billion at June 30, 2016. The Corporation experienced organic growth in customer deposits of $72.0 million during the second quarter of 2017. The Corporation added $5.29 billion of deposits as part of the merger with Talmer that was completed on August 31, 2016, including $403.2 million of brokered deposits. The Corporation reduced the balance of brokered deposits by $351.2 million during the period of September 30, 2016 to June 30, 2017.

Securities sold under agreements to repurchase with customers were $310.0 million at June 30, 2017, compared to $398.9 million at March 31, 2017 and $256.2 million at June 30, 2016. Short-term borrowings were $2.05 billion at June 30, 2017, compared to $900.0 million at March 31, 2017 and $300.0 million at June 30, 2016 and consisted of short-term FHLB advances utilized by the Corporation to fund short-term liquidity needs. The increase in short-term FHLB advances in the second quarter 2017 was primarily utilized to fund an increase in the investment securities portfolio and loan growth. Long-term borrowings were $435.9 million at June 30, 2017, compared to $490.9 million at March 31, 2017 and $371.6 million at June 30, 2016.

The Corporation's shareholders' equity to total assets ratio was 14.1% at June 30, 2017, compared to 14.7% at March 31, 2017 and 11.0% at June 30, 2016. The Corporation's tangible equity to tangible assets ratio and total risk-based capital ratio were 8.4% and 11.1% (estimated), respectively, at June 30, 2017 compared to 8.8% and 11.4%, respectively, at March 31, 2017 and 8.2% and 11.4%, respectively, at June 30, 2016.(6) The Corporation's book value was $37.11 per share at June 30, 2017, compared to $36.56 per share at March 31, 2017 and $27.45 per share at June 30, 2016. The Corporation's tangible book value was $20.89 per share at June 30, 2017, compared to $20.32 per share at March 31, 2017 and $19.68 per share at June 30, 2016.(7)
