DENVER, Colo., Oct. 24, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- First Western Financial, Inc., (“First Western” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: MYFW), today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2019.

Net income available to common shareholders was $2.4 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2019. This compares to $1.4 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2019, and $1.4 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2018, which included $0.3 million of preferred stock dividends. The preferred stock was redeemed in the third quarter of 2018.

“We had another good quarter of business development and client acquisitions, resulting in significant growth in total deposits and assets under management, as well as another quarter of strong contribution from our residential mortgage business,” said Scott C. Wylie, CEO of First Western. “We continue to generate strong loan production, although we saw a significant increase in payoffs in the third quarter, which negatively impacted our total loan growth and net interest income. Our loan pipeline remains healthy, which should result in continued strong loan production. However, we anticipate that elevated payoffs will continue to be a headwind to our total loan growth in the near-term. Over the longer-term, we are optimistic about our opportunities to drive additional profitable growth as we put our rapid increase in liquid assets to work, continue to attract new clients, gain scale, and realize additional operating leverage.”

Operating Results for the Third Quarter 2019

Revenue

Gross revenue (total income before non-interest expense, less net gains on sale of securities and plus provision for credit losses) was $16.6 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to $16.5 million for the second quarter of 2019. The increase in revenue was primarily driven by a $0.1 million increase in trust and investment management fees.

Relative to the third quarter of 2018, gross revenue increased $2.2 million from $14.4 million. The increase was due to growth in all major categories of gross revenues including net interest income, trust and investment management fees, and net gain on mortgage loans sold resulting from increased mortgage activity and improvement in operational efficiencies within the Mortgage segment.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the third quarter of 2019 was $7.9 million, materially unchanged from the second quarter of 2019, as interest-bearing deposit growth increased on-balance sheet liquidity and outpaced loan growth.  On a quarter-over-quarter basis, net interest income was impacted by an $84.5 million increase in average interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by average loan growth of $2.2 million.  The cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 2 basis points to 1.63%, while average loan yields increased 2 basis points to 4.55%. 

Relative to the third quarter of 2018, net interest income increased 2.0% from $7.8 million. The year-over-year increase in net interest income was due primarily to growth in average loans, partially offset by increases in average interest-bearing liabilities and funding costs.

Net Interest Margin

Net interest margin for the third quarter of 2019 decreased to 2.95% from 3.10% in the second quarter of 2019. The decrease was primarily driven by the on-boarding deposits from new high net worth clients. This drove an increase in MMDA balances and corresponding interest expense, and an unfavorable shift in the mix of earning assets.

Relative to the third quarter of 2018, the net interest margin decreased from 3.29%, primarily due to a 40 basis point increase in the average cost of funds, which was partially offset by a 6 basis point increase in the average yield on interest earning assets.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income for the third quarter of 2019 was $8.8 million, an increase of 2.4% from $8.6 million in the second quarter of 2019.  The increase was primarily due to higher trust and investment management fees and a gain on the sale of securities.

Relative to the third quarter of 2018, non-interest income increased 32.4% from $6.6 million. The increase was primarily attributable to higher net gains on mortgage loans sold as a result of a higher volume of mortgages sold in 2019.

Non-interest Expense

Non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2019 was $13.4 million, a decrease of 8.3% from $14.7 million for the second quarter of 2019. Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2019 included a $1.6 million goodwill impairment charge related to the July 2019 agreement to sell the Company’s Los Angeles-based fixed income team.  Excluding the goodwill impairment charge, non-interest expense increased 2.7%.  Non-interest expense also increased 10.4% from $12.2 million in the third quarter of 2018.  Relative to both prior periods, the higher non-interest expense in the third quarter of 2019 was primarily attributable to an increase in salaries and employee benefits.

The increase in salary and employee benefits was primarily driven by $0.5 million increase in non-operating equity compensation expenses for performance related earnout payouts as a result of the September 2017 acquisition of EMC Holdings, LLC (“EMC”) along with $0.4 million of higher incentive compensation accruals. 

As part of the EMC acquisition agreement, the effective date of the performance related payout is August 31 of each year.  If mortgage volume and income remain flat compared to the September 30, 2019 results and using the August 31, 2019 MYFW stock price, the Company expects to recognize the remaining equity compensation expense allowable under this agreement, approximately $0.4 million of additional expense, by the end of the first quarter 2020.   

Non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2019 also included approximately $0.14 million in non-recurring professional services fees related to the pending sale of the Company’s Los Angeles-based fixed income team.

The Company’s efficiency ratio was 80.6% in the third quarter of 2019, compared with 78.2% in the second quarter of 2019 and 83.0% in the third quarter of 2018. The efficiency ratio was negatively impacted during the third quarter 2019 by various acquisition and disposition related expenses. The impact of the above noted items on the third quarter 2019 net income available to shareholders and on earnings per share are as follows:

Income Taxes

The Company recorded income tax expense of $0.8 million for the third quarter of 2019, representing an effective tax rate of 24.5%, compared to 28.5% for the second quarter of 2019. The second quarter expense was higher primarily due to the vesting of Restricted Stock Units which occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2019.

Loan Portfolio

Total gross loans including mortgage loans held for sale were $995.8 million at September 30, 2019, an increase of $20.2 million from the end of the prior quarter, representing an annualized growth of 8.3% and an increase of $119.3 million from September 30, 2018, or 13.6% growth.

Gross loans, excluding mortgage loans held for sale, totaled $926.6 million at September 30, 2019, compared to $939.4 million at June 30, 2019 and $857.3 million at September 30, 2018. The decrease in gross loans from June 30, 2019 was primarily attributable to elevated payoffs and paydowns experienced in the 1-4 family residential and non-owner occupied commercial real estate portfolios. Net loan payoffs in the loan portfolio totaled $71.3 million in the third quarter of 2019, an increase from $44.7 million in the second quarter of 2019.  

Deposits

Total deposits were $1.1 billion at September 30, 2019, compared to $1.0 billion at June 30, 2019, and $878.6 million at September 30, 2018, which represents a 41.3% annualized increase from the second quarter 2019 and a 26.2% increase from the third quarter 2018. The increase in total deposits from June 30, 2019 was due primarily to an increase in money market accounts related to the addition of new high net worth clients.

Average total deposits for the third quarter of 2019 increased $75.1 million, or 31.0% annualized, from the second quarter of 2019 and increased $180.3 million, or 20.9%, from the third quarter of 2018.

Assets Under Management

Total assets under management increased by $148.2 million during the third quarter to $6.12 billion at September 30, 2019, compared to $5.97 billion at June 30, 2019, and $5.63 billion at September 30, 2018.  The increase was primarily attributable to market gains.

Credit Quality

Non-performing assets totaled $14.6 million, or 1.15% of total assets, at September 30, 2019, up from $13.5 million, or 1.13% of total assets, at June 30, 2019 due to an increase in TDR balances. 

Consistent with the prior eleven quarters, the Company did not record any charge-offs in the third quarter of 2019.

The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2019, primarily due to an increase in substandard loans.

Capital

At September 30, 2019, First Western (“Consolidated”) and First Western Trust Bank (“Bank”) exceeded the minimum capital levels required by their respective regulators. At September 30, 2019, the Bank was classified as “well capitalized,” as summarized in the following table:

       
    September 30,  
    2019  
Consolidated Capital      
Common Equity Tier 1(CET1) to risk-weighted assets    11.73 %
Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets    11.73  
Total capital to risk-weighted assets    13.36  
Tier 1 capital to average assets    8.76  
       
Bank Capital      
Common Equity Tier 1(CET1) to risk-weighted assets    10.98  
Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets    10.98  
Total capital to risk-weighted assets    11.87  
Tier 1 capital to average assets    8.19 %

Tangible book value per common share increased 3.6% to $12.83 at September 30, 2019, from $12.38 at June 30, 2019.

During the third quarter of 2019, the Company repurchased 582 shares of its common stock at an average price of $14.00 under its stock repurchase program, which authorized the repurchase of up to 300,000 shares of its common stock.  As of September 30, 2019, the Company had up to 299,418 shares remaining under the current stock repurchase authorization.

Sale of Los Angeles-based Fixed Income Team

On July 19, 2019, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement to sell its Los Angeles-based fixed income portfolio management team (“LA fixed income team”) and certain advisory and sub-advisory arrangements to Lido Advisors, LLC and Oakhurst Advisors, LLC.  The sale of the LA fixed income team is now expected to close during the fourth quarter of 2019. As a result of the pending sale, $3.6 million in assets and $0.1 in liabilities were moved to held for sale during the period.

The Company continues to expect the sale to result in an estimated positive impact to tangible common equity of approximately $3.3 million to $3.9 million to be recognized at closing.
