CEO Commentary

Rodger Levenson, Chairman, President and CEO, said, “Despite a challenging operating environment related to COVID-19, our 2Q results reflected solid performance including core pre-provision net revenue (PPNR)⁽²⁾ of $63.5 million, or 1.96% of average assets. During the quarter we provided nearly $1.0 billion in Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans for more than 5,400 new and existing WSFS Customers, supporting an estimated 100,000 jobs in our region. Additionally, we prudently increased credit reserves amidst the uncertain economic environment and recorded $94.8 million of provision for credit losses in the quarter. Even after the large reserve build, we continue to maintain significant excess capital levels with a Common Equity Tier 1 Ratio of 12.68% at June 30th. Also, in 2Q, we also successfully monetized nearly our entire investment in Visa Class B shares and recognized a net gain of $22.1 million, or $0.35 per share. Total returns-to-date on Visa Class B shares of $78.0 million on a total portfolio investment of $17.7 million demonstrate our longstanding entrepreneurial spirit and ability to prudently invest capital. Overall, our strong balance sheet, capital and diversified business model positions us well as the economy continues to gradually reopen.

“Our immediate focus remains on the health, wellbeing, and safety of our Associates, Customers, and our communities. We continue to serve Customers through drive-thru locations and have begun a carefully planned and phased approach to opening previously closed office and banking locations that aligns with Federal and State guidance and is informed by direction from the CDC, State Departments of Health and other governing bodies. We are encouraged by signs of improvement in our region’s economy during the early stages of a potentially prolonged and uneven recovery period.

“During the quarter we were honored to be ranked #21 in the United States on the Forbes World’s Best Banks Listing. This recognition is especially rewarding as it comes to us from the voices of our Customers and their shared experiences with WSFS. Additionally, WSFS was selected as one of only two companies nationwide to receive the Gallup Culture Transformation Award in its inaugural year. These recognitions affirm our Strategy of ‘Engaged Associates, living our culture, making a better life for all we serve.”

⁽²⁾ Core PPNR is a non-GAAP financial measure calculated as core net revenue before provision for credit losses and net of core noninterest expense. For a reconciliation of this and other non-GAAP measures to their comparable GAAP measures, see "Non-GAAP Reconciliation"  at the end of the press release.

Notable Items in the Quarter (all excluded from core results):

• WSFS recorded net realized gains on our equity investments of $22.1 million (pre-tax), or $0.35 per share (after-tax), from the sale of 360,000 Visa Class B shares, compared with a combined $1.0 million (pre-tax), or approximately $0.01 per share (after-tax), in unrealized gains related to Visa Class B shares and our strategic partnership investment in Spring EQ in 2Q 2019. Since our adoption of ASU 2016-01 in 1Q 2018, cumulative realized and unrealized gains and dividends on Visa Class B shares total $78.0 million on a total portfolio investment of $17.7 million.
• WSFS recorded $2.8 million (pre-tax), or approximately $0.04 per share (after-tax), of corporate development expenses related to our acquisition of Beneficial Bancorp, Inc. (Beneficial), compared with $15.8 million (pre-tax), or approximately $0.22 per share (after-tax), of corporate development and restructuring expenses in 2Q 2019. The merger-to-date amounts are less than our original expectations.
• WSFS realized $1.9 million (pre-tax), or approximately $0.03 per share (after-tax), in net gains on sales of other securities compared to $0.1 million (pre-tax) in 2Q 2019.

Highlights for 2Q 2020:

• WSFS recorded $94.8 million of provision expense, which reduced core EPS⁽³⁾ by $1.49 and core ROA⁽³⁾ by 2.33%. The allowance for credit losses increased to $232.2 million with a coverage ratio of 2.73% excluding PPP loans and 3.26% when including the remaining credit mark on acquired loans.
• Core PPNR was $63.5 million, or 1.96% of average assets, a decrease of $7.9 million, or 11%, from 1Q 2020 and $9.4 million, or 13% from 2Q 2019 due to the factors described above. Excluding the impact of PPP, core PPNR was $60.5 million in 2Q 2020, or 1.98% of average assets.
• PPP loans were $945.1 million as of June 30, 2020 and resulted in $3.0 million of pre-tax, or $0.05 per share, net impact (measured as net interest income from PPP loans less direct PPP expenses) in 2Q 2020. WSFS provided PPP loans for more than 5,400 new and existing WSFS Customers, supporting an estimated 100,000 jobs in our region.
• Core net revenue⁽³⁾ of $154.2 million decreased $10.8 million, or 7%, from 2Q 2019, including a $9.5 million, or 8%, decrease in core net interest income⁽³⁾, and a $1.3 million, or 3%, decrease in core fee income (noninterest income)⁽³⁾ primarily due to the lower interest rate environment.
• Core noninterest expense⁽³⁾ decreased $1.4 million, or 2%, compared to 2Q 2019 while our core efficiency ratio⁽³⁾ increased to 58.7% from 55.7% in 2Q 2019 due to decreased net revenue. 2Q 2020 included $3.2 million of increased loan workout and other credit costs compared to 2Q 2019 driven by $3.4 million of unfunded commitment reserve.
• WSFS maintained significant excess capital levels with a Common Equity Tier 1 Ratio of 12.68%, including the year-to-date increase in the allowance for credit losses.
• The Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share of common stock consistent with the prior quarter. WSFS continued the temporary suspension of all share repurchases until we have a clearer long-term view of the impact of COVID-19 on the economy and our performance. The current Board authorization allows for the purchase of approximately 15% of outstanding shares.

⁽³⁾ As used in this press release, core ROA, core EPS, core net revenue, core net interest income, core fee income (noninterest income), core noninterest expense, core PPNR, and core efficiency ratio are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP measures exclude securities gains, realized/unrealized gains on equity investments, corporate development and restructuring expense, and the contribution to the WSFS Community Fund.

Money market	2,333,326				22			2,149,119				23				2,005,568				22

Customer time deposits	1,228,440				11			1,272,154				13				1,359,308				15
Total customer deposits	$	10,784,171			100	%		$	9,424,378			100		%		$	9,271,551			100	%

At June 30, 2020, WSFS’ net loan portfolio increased $732.6 million when compared with March 31, 2020 and $610.3 million when compared with June 30, 2019, primarily due to $945.1 million of PPP loans as of June 30, 2020. The PPP loan increase was partially offset by a decline in non-relationship run-off portfolios of $115.0 million during the quarter and $371.0 million year-over-year, and an increase in the allowance for credit losses of $93.1 million during the quarter and $186.8 million year-over-year. Excluding PPP loans, run-off portfolios, and the allowance for credit losses, loans decreased $4.4 million during the quarter and increased $223.0 million, or 3%, year-over-year, with growth across CRE, construction, commercial small business leases, and home equity installment loans originated through our partnership with Spring EQ.

Total customer funding was $10.8 billion at June 30, 2020, a $1.4 billion increase from March 31, 2020 and a $1.5 billion increase from June 30, 2019, reflecting an estimated $700 million of deposits from customers who received PPP loans, the impact of government stimulus checks, delayed tax payment and less customer spending during the health pandemic. Core deposits were $9.6 billion at June 30, 2020, an increase of $1.4 billion over the prior quarter due to the reasons noted above, including the deposits from customers who received PPP loans, and were a strong 89% of total customer deposits. No- and low-cost checking deposit accounts represented a robust 51% of total customer deposits at June 30, 2020. These core deposits predominantly represent longer-term, less price-sensitive customer relationships. The ratio of loans to customer deposits was 86% at June 30, 2020 reflecting significant liquidity capacity.

Net Interest Income

			Three Months Ending
(Dollars in thousands)			June 30, 2020				March 31, 2020				June 30, 2019
Net interest income before purchase accretion and PPP			$	96,400			$	101,941			$	107,018
Purchase accounting accretion			12,520				14,209				16,214
Net interest income before PPP			108,920				116,150				123,232
PPP			4,836				—				—
Net interest income			$	113,756			$	116,150			$	123,232
Net interest margin before purchase accretion and PPP			3.58		%		3.85		%		4.07		%
Purchase accounting accretion			0.43				0.53				0.61
Net interest margin before PPP			4.01				4.38				4.68
PPP (excluding income and interest-earning assets)			(0.08)				—				—
Net interest margin			3.93		%		4.38		%		4.68		%

Net interest income decreased $9.5 million, or 8%, compared to 2Q 2019, primarily due to the lower rate environment and a $3.7 million decrease in purchase accounting accretion, partially offset by $4.8 million of PPP income which included $3.1 million of fee accretion. Net interest margin decreased 75 bps from 2Q 2019 due to the lower rate environment, lower purchase accounting accretion, an impact from PPP, and asset mix from the significant short-term liquidity increase in customer deposits.

Net interest income decreased $2.4 million, or 2% (not annualized), from 1Q 2020 primarily due to the lower rate environment, including a 150 bps reduction in the Fed Funds rate that occurred late in the first quarter and a $1.7 million decrease in purchase accounting accretion, partially offset by PPP income and favorable deposit betas. Net interest margin decreased 45 bps due to the lower rate environment, an impact from PPP, lower purchase accounting accretion, and asset mix change resulting from the significant short-term liquidity increase in customer deposits.

Credit Quality

Credit quality metrics at June 30, 2020 reflected the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Total problem assets increased to $568.5 million from $221.9 million as of March 31, 2020 and included risk rating migration of $247.0 million in the hotel sector with the remaining increase primarily attributable to the food service and retail sectors. Total problem assets includes all criticized, classified, and nonperforming loans as well as other real estate owned (OREO).

Delinquencies were lower compared to 1Q 2020 and 2Q 2019 reflecting the impact of $2.1 billion of customer loans receiving deferred payment modifications as of June 30, 2020. Through constructive discussions with these customers we expect that at least 75% of these loan modifications will revert to full contractual payment terms in 3Q 2020. Nonperforming assets increased $6.7 million, or 18% (not annualized), to $44.9 million compared to March 31, 2020. Net charge-offs for 2Q 2020 were a low $1.6 million, or 0.07% (annualized), of average gross loans.

Provision for credit losses was $94.8 million in the quarter and the allowance for credit losses increased $93.1 million with $55.5 million of the provision impact due to portfolio credit migration and other portfolio impacts attributable to the pandemic and $39.3 million resulting directly from the deterioration in economic forecasts, which are tenuous during this unique and uncertain economic environment.

The following table summarizes credit quality metrics as of and for the period ended June 30, 2020 compared to March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019.

(Dollars in millions)			June 30, 2020				March 31, 2020				June 30, 2019
Problem assets			$	568.5			$	221.9			$	219.7
Nonperforming assets			44.9				38.1				55.5
Delinquencies			48.4				59.8				67.5

Ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets			0.33				0.31				0.46
Ratio of nonperforming assets (excluding accruing TDRs) to total assets			0.22				0.20				0.34
Delinquencies to gross loans			0.51				0.69				0.78
Ratio of quarterly net charge-offs to average gross loans			0.07				0.04				0.61
Ratio of allowance for credit losses to total loans and leases (q)			2.45				1.60				0.53
Ratio of allowance for credit losses to nonaccruing loans			887				722				121

Core Fee Income

Core fee income (noninterest income) was $40.4 million, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 3%, compared to 2Q 2019, including a $4.3 million decrease in Cash Connect^®, which was primarily due to the lower interest rate environment and fully offset by lower funding costs, and a $3.0 million decrease in traditional banking-related fee income due to lower transaction volumes due to COVID-19, lower fees due to higher average customer balances, and lower gain on sale from Small Business Association (SBA) loans due to a decline in volume. Partially offsetting these decreases, was a $5.6 million increase from our mortgage banking business due to increased volume primarily from refinancings resulting from the lower interest rate environment.

Core fee income increased $0.9 million, or 2%, compared to 1Q 2020, due to a $5.0 million increase from our mortgage banking business due to improved secondary market condition and increased volume. The increase in mortgage fee income was partially offset by a $2.7 million decrease in Cash Connect^® due to the significant decline in interest rates during the quarter fully offset by lower funding costs, and a $1.4 million decrease in traditional banking-related fee income, primarily related to lower fees due to the higher average customer balances.

For 2Q 2020, core fee income was 26.2% of core net revenue, compared to 25.3% for 2Q 2019, and was diversified among various sources, including traditional banking, mortgage banking, trust and wealth management and cash logistics services (Cash Connect^®). The year-over-year percentage increase primarily reflects lower net interest income due to the lower rate environment.

Core Noninterest Expenses

Core noninterest expense for 2Q 2020 decreased $1.4 million, or 2%, compared to 2Q 2019, primarily due to $2.7 million of lower Cash Connect^® third-party funding costs, $1.9 million of lower combined occupancy, data processing, and marketing costs due to synergies from the prior year Beneficial acquisition, a $1.2 million insurance recovery of prior quarter expenses from a fire at a branch location, and a $3.9 million decrease, net, in other costs including spend on travel and entertainment due to COVID-19. Partially offsetting these declines was a $3.2 million increase in unfunded commitment reserve expense, $1.9 million of COVID-19 related costs, $1.8 million of PPP related costs, and a $1.4 million loss from the change in fair value of plan assets of a previously acquired pension plan.

When compared to 1Q 2020, core noninterest expense increased $6.5 million, or 8% (not annualized), including higher incentive costs of $3.9 million primarily due to a prior year accrual reversal in 1Q 2020, $3.6 million of higher unfunded commitment reserve expense, $1.9 million of COVID-19 related costs, $1.7 million of PPP related costs, and the $1.4 million pension plan loss described above. The quarter-over-quarter increase was partially offset by $1.5 million of lower Cash Connect^® third-party funding costs primarily due to the lower rate environment, the $1.2 million insurance recovery in 2Q 2020 from the branch location fire, and a $3.3 million decrease, net, in other costs including spend on travel and entertainment due to COVID-19 and lower benefit costs which are typically higher in the first quarter.

Our core efficiency ratio was 58.7% in 2Q 2020, compared to 54.0% in 1Q 2020 and 55.7% in 2Q 2019.

Income Taxes

We recorded a $2.2 million income tax benefit in 2Q 2020, compared to provisions of $1.3 million in 1Q 2020 and $10.1 million in 2Q 2019.

The effective tax rate was 22.3% in 2Q 2020, 10.9% in 1Q 2020, and 21.9% in 2Q 2019. The lower tax rate in 1Q 2020 primarily reflects a one-time tax benefit of $1.8 million related to certain favorable income tax provisions contained in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act passed during the quarter.

Capital Management

WSFS’ total stockholders’ equity decreased $10.9 million, or less than 1% (not annualized), during 2Q 2020, primarily due to the loss recorded in the quarter driven by higher provision for credit losses and the dividend on common stock paid during the quarter.

WSFS’ tangible common equity⁽⁴⁾ decreased $7.7 million, or less than 1% (not annualized) compared to March 31, 2020 for the reasons described above. WSFS’ common equity to assets ratio was 13.44% at June 30, 2020, and our tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio⁽⁴⁾ decreased by 114 bps during the quarter to 9.69%.

At June 30, 2020, book value per share was $36.00, a decrease of $0.23, or 1%, from March 31, 2020, and tangible common book value per share⁽⁴⁾ was $24.89, a decrease of $0.17, or 1%, from March 31, 2020.

At June 30, 2020, WSFS Bank’s Tier 1 leverage ratio of 10.40%, Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio and Tier 1 capital ratio of 12.68%, and Total Capital ratio of 13.93% were all substantially in excess of the “well-capitalized” regulatory benchmarks.

The Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.12 per share of common stock. This dividend will be paid on August 20, 2020 to stockholders of record as of August 6, 2020.

WSFS has temporarily suspended all share repurchases until we have a clearer view of the impact of COVID-19 on the economy and our performance and therefore did not repurchase any shares of common stock during 2Q 2020. In 1Q 2020, the Board approved a new share repurchase authorization of approximately 15% of outstanding shares.

⁽⁴⁾ As used in this release, tangible common equity, tangible common equity to tangible assets and tangible common book value per share are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP measures exclude goodwill and intangible assets and the related tax-effected amortization. For a reconciliation of these and other non-GAAP measures to their comparable GAAP measures, see "Non-GAAP Reconciliation"  at the end of the press release.

Selected Business Segments (included in previous results):

Wealth Management

The Wealth Management segment provides a broad array of planning and advisory services, investment management, trust services, and credit and deposit products to individual, corporate, and institutional clients through multiple integrated businesses. Combined, these businesses had $20.8 billion in assets under management (AUM) and assets under administration (AUA) as of June 30, 2020.

Wealth Management reported pre-tax income of $3.9 million in 2Q 2020 compared to $6.1 million in 2Q 2019, and $3.8 million in 1Q 2020. PPNR was $7.5 million in 2Q 2020 compared to $7.5 million in both 2Q 2019 and 1Q 2020. Results were impacted by elevated provision for credit losses in our Private Banking business and the impact of the lower interest rate environment. Provision expense was $0.9 million in 2Q 2020, a $1.0 million increase compared to 2Q 2019 (which reported a small net recovery) and a decrease of $0.7 million compared to 1Q 2020.

Total Wealth Management revenue (net interest income and fee income) was $14.8 million for 2Q 2020, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 2%, compared to 2Q 2019. The decrease was due to lower net interest income in our Private Banking business as a result of lower interest rates and decreased advisory fees resulting from lower asset market values.

Asset based revenue was $3.0 million in 2Q 2020 compared to $3.1 million in 2Q 2019, and $3.4 million in 1Q 2020. Net interest income was $3.3 million in 2Q 2020, a decrease of $0.9 million, or 20% compared to 2Q 2019 and $0.1 million, or 3% lower compared to 1Q 2020 despite year-over-year growth in the balance sheet and robust client volumes which were offset by the impact of lower interest rates. Excluding PPP loans, loan balances were roughly flat for the quarter while deposits grew by $91.6 million, or 15% compared to 2Q 2019. The Private Bank issued $32.6 million of PPP loans to support our client base through the COVID-19 pandemic, much of which remains deposited with the Private Bank.

Total noninterest expense (including intercompany allocations and excluding provision for credit losses) was $9.9 million in 2Q 2020, an increase of $0.9 million compared to 2Q 2019 and an increase of $0.5 million compared to 1Q 2020. The year-over-year increase was driven by higher compensation costs, resulting from the addition of front office staff to support expansion into the Pennsylvania and New Jersey markets and higher variable incentive compensation costs.

Cash Connect^®

Cash Connect^® is a premier provider of ATM vault cash, smart safe and cash logistics services in the United States. Cash Connect^® services approximately 32,000 non-bank ATMs and retail safes nationwide supplying or servicing over $1.4 billion in cash at June 30, 2020 and provides other fee-based services. Cash Connect^® also supports 571 ATMs for WSFS Bank Customers, which is one of the largest branded ATM networks in our market.

Cash Connect^® reported pre-tax income of $2.0 million for 2Q 2020, which was an increase of $0.2 million, or 14%, compared to 2Q 2019, primarily due to the mix shift from lower to higher yielding ATM business, continued growth in our non-asset based fee products and remote cash capture (smart safe, recycler and kiosk) business, and a lower interest rate environment. Net income in 2Q 2020 was flat from 1Q 2020, with reduced gross revenues fully offset by lower cost of funds and operating expenses. ROA of 1.81% in 2Q 2020 improved 33 bps from 2Q 2019 and was down 3 bps from 1Q 2020.

Net revenue of $9.3 million in 2Q 2020 was down 18% from 2Q 2019, driven by the lower interest rate environment, offset by lower cost of funds (including lower third party funding fees in noninterest expense) and higher volume. Cash Connect^® saw a 7% increase in the number of total units serviced and a significant shift to higher margin services and non-asset based fees, including a 46% increase in remote cash capture devices and a 14% increase of ATMs utilizing our non-bailment reconciliation services. Compared to 1Q 2020, net revenue decreased $1.7 million, or 15% (not annualized), due to lower bailment revenue resulting from the lower interest rate environment, fully offset by lower cost of funds and third-party funding fees in noninterest expense.

Noninterest expense (including intercompany allocations of expense) was $7.3 million in 2Q 2020, a decrease of $2.3 million compared to 2Q 2019 and a decrease of $1.7 million compared to 1Q 2020. The decreases in expenses compared to 2Q 2019 and 1Q 2020 were driven by lower funding fees, as noted above.

During 2Q 2020, the division continued to focus on expanding its smart safe and ATM managed services to increase fee income and margin. Cash Connect^® drove strong growth in the strategic remote cash capture space with approximately 4,100 devices under service, an increase of 400 units during the quarter. Our remote cash capture pipeline has grown as we add new channel partners, including top financial institutions which have brought us several significant national opportunities. We are increasing our cash logistics services for new ATM and safe devices during the COVID-19 pandemic and anticipate rollouts to increase as businesses continue to reopen nationwide.

the Company's level of nonperforming assets and the costs associated with resolving problem loans including litigation and other costs; changes in market interest rates which may increase funding costs and reduce earning asset yields and thus reduce margin;

possible changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies and stimulus programs, laws and regulations and other activities of governments, agencies, and similar organizations, and the uncertainty of the short- and long-term impacts of such changes; any impairments of the Company's goodwill or other intangible assets; conditions in the financial markets, including the destabilized economic environment caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, that may limit the Company's access to additional funding to meet its liquidity needs; the intention of the United Kingdom's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) to cease support of London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and the transition to an alternative reference interest rate; the success of the Company's growth plans, including its plans to grow the commercial small business leasing portfolio and residential mortgage small business and SBA portfolios following the acquisition of Beneficial;

system failures or cybersecurity incidents or other breaches of the Company's network security, particularly given widespread remote working arrangements; the Company's ability to recruit and retain key employees; the effects of problems encountered by other financial institutions that adversely affect the Company or the banking industry generally; the effects of weather and natural disasters such as floods, droughts, wind, tornadoes and hurricanes as well as effects from geopolitical instability and man-made disasters including terrorist attacks; the effects of regional or national civil unrest (including any resulting branch or ATM closures or damage); possible changes in the speed of loan prepayments by the Company's Customers and loan origination or sales volumes; possible changes in the speed of prepayments of mortgage-backed securities due to changes in the interest rate environment, particularly as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the related acceleration of premium amortization on prepayments in the event that prepayments accelerate; regulatory limits on the Company's ability to receive dividends from its subsidiaries and pay dividends to its stockholders; any reputation, credit, interest rate, market, operational, litigation, legal, liquidity, regulatory and compliance risk resulting from developments related to any of the risks discussed above; and other risks and uncertainties, including those discussed in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and other documents filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time.
