Olympia, WA-HERITAGE FINANCIAL CORPORATION (NASDAQ GS: HFWA) Brian L. Vance, President and CEO of Heritage Financial Corporation (“Company” or “Heritage”), today reported net income for the three months ended December 31, 2009 of $772,000 compared to a net loss of $194,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. Including preferred stock dividends, the net income applicable to common shareholders for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 was $441,000, or $0.04 per diluted common share, compared with a net loss applicable to common shareholders of $337,000, or $0.05 per diluted common share for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. For the year ended December 31, 2009, the net loss, including preferred stock
dividends, applicable to common shareholders was $739,000, or $0.10 per diluted common share compared to net income applicable to common shareholders of $6.2 million, or $0.93 per diluted common share for the year ended December 31, 2008. The decrease in earnings from the year ended December 31, 2008 was substantially attributable to the increased provision for loan losses.
Mr. Vance commented, “As we look back on 2009, together with 2008, we see perhaps the most volatile and difficult period with regard to the financial services industry we have experienced in the last 80 years. As I evaluate our performance this past year, I believe Heritage has fared quite well on a relative and comparative basis. I will hasten to add that I am not satisfied that we posted a net loss for the year. There is no question that the economic difficulties that are affecting all other banks and most of our customers have also affected us. However, when we look at critical performance metrics such as capital, problem loans, loan loss allowance levels, pre-tax, pre-provision profitability, core deposit growth, and balance sheet liquidity, our performance ranks near the top in all of these metrics as compared to our Pacific Northwest peers.”
“The Pacific Northwest has yet to see measurable or sustainable economic growth, and I believe will likely not in the near term,” Mr. Vance continued. “I do believe, however, that Heritage’s overall performance will continue to improve. To emphasize this point, even though we posted a loss for 2009, our trend lines of profitability measurement show an improving trend in each of the successive quarters of 2009. We are cautiously optimistic that we can continue these positive trend lines. And more importantly, I believe our overall balance sheet structure is well-positioned to take advantage of future growth opportunities.”
“In conclusion, I would like to highlight our successful capital raise in September 2009 and welcome our newest shareholders to the Heritage family. We were very pleased with the success of our offering and I feel a strong sense of responsibility to wisely and profitably employ that new capital in growing our franchise as we work through 2010 and beyond.”
The Company’s total assets increased $68.7 million to $1.01 billion at December 31, 2009 from $946.1 million at December 31, 2008. At December 31, 2009, total loans decreased $36.5 million to $772.2 million from $808.7 million at December 31, 2008. The decrease in loans during 2009 was primarily a result of construction loan repayments and charge-offs. At December 31, 2009, real estate construction loan balances accounted for only 12.4% of total loans and only 6.0% of total loans are within the single-family residential construction sector.
Deposits increased $15.6 million to $840.1 million at December 31, 2009 from $824.5 million at December 31, 2008. Since December 31, 2008, non-maturity deposits (total deposits less certificate of deposit accounts) increased $58.1 million, or 12.2%. As a result, the percentage of certificate of deposit accounts to total deposits decreased to 36.2% at December 31, 2009 from 42.0% at December 31, 2008.
A significant amount of the change in the mix of deposit accounts was a result of the Company reducing its public deposits. In order to comply with new public deposit collateral requirements and reduce the Company’s exposure to uninsured public deposits, management implemented additional measures to manage public deposits. These measures included allowing some public certificate of deposit accounts to run-off
and converting others to insured deposit accounts. As a result, total public deposit balances decreased $63 million to $69 million at December 31, 2009 from $132 million at December 31, 2008. The Company’s uninsured public deposit accounts (which are fully collateralized) declined to $0.5 million at December 31, 2009 from $125 million at December 31, 2008.
At December 31, 2009, the Company’s stockholders’ equity to total assets was 15.6% compared to 12.0% at December 31, 2008. In addition, the Company had Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based and total risk-based capital ratios at December 31, 2009 of 14.4%, 19.4% and 20.7%, respectively, as compared to 11.0%, 12.5% and 13.7% at December 31, 2008, respectively. The increase in capital was a result of the September 2009 sale of approximately 4.3 million shares of common stock in a public offering. The shares were sold at $11.50 per share and net proceeds from the offering were approximately $46.6 million. The net proceeds were utilized primarily to fund the increases in investment securities pending their allocation to specific uses.
Net interest income before provision for loan losses was $10.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 compared to $10.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2008, an increase of 7.2%. For the year ended December 31, 2009, net interest income before provision for loan losses was $41.7 million compared to $38.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2008, an increase of 8.7%. These increases were the result of growth in interest earning assets. Average interest earning assets increased 12.5% to $958.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 from $852.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. The net interest margin (net interest income divided by average interest earning assets) was 4.45% for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 compared to 4.67% for the quarter ended December 31, 2008.
The provision for loan losses in the fourth quarter of 2009 of $5.0 million increased $300,000 from $4.7 million in the third quarter of 2009 and increased $360,000 from $4.6 million in the prior year quarter ended December 31, 2008. The Company had net charge-offs in the fourth quarter of 2009 of $3.8 million compared to $3.3 million in the third quarter of 2009 and $1.8 million in the prior year quarter ended December 31, 2008. The net charge-offs in the fourth quarter of 2009 and throughout the year occurred primarily in the single-family residential construction sector. The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans increased to 3.39% at December 31, 2009 from 3.20% at September 30, 2009 and 1.91% at December 31, 2008. The increase in the allowance for loan losses was attributable to management’s continuing assessment of the increased risk in the loan portfolio as a result of the current economic environment, which has led to increases in potential problem loans and loan losses. Management continues to see weakness specifically within its residential construction portfolio, as well as some weakness in its commercial business loan portfolio. Management is committed to ongoing and careful review of all existing and new loans to seek to minimize loss exposure.
Nonperforming assets (nonperforming loans plus other real estate owned) at December 31, 2009 were $33.7 million, or 3.32% of total assets, a decrease from $35.8 million, or 3.52% of total assets at September 30, 2009 and an increase from $5.4 million, or 0.57% of total assets, at December 31, 2008. Slower sales and excess inventory in the housing market has been the primary cause of the increase in nonperforming assets. Residential construction and land development loans represented 76.7% of our nonperforming loans at December 31, 2009. At December 31, 2009, the Company’s
coverage of allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans was 79.3%. Management expects the provision for loan losses to continue at elevated levels until there is measurable improvement in its local economic markets.
Non-interest income was $2.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2009 compared to $2.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2008. The increase was primarily due to increased SBA loan sales. Non-interest income decreased slightly to $8.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2009 from $8.8 million for the same period in 2008.
Non-interest expense was $7.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 compared to $7.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. For the year ended December 31, 2009, non-interest expense was $30.9 million compared to $30.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. The variances in non-interest expenses were primarily the result of the following:
| • | | For the three months and year ended December 31, 2009, Federal deposit insurance expenses increased $211,000 and $1.2 million, respectively, from the same periods in the prior year. |
| • | | For the three months ended December 31, 2009, impairment loss on securities was $236,000 compared to $668,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2008. For the year ended December 31, 2009, impairment loss on securities was $500,000 compared to $1.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2008. |
| • | | For the three months and year ended December 31, 2009, salaries and employee benefits decreased $571,000 and $430,000, respectively, from the same periods in the prior year. |
| • | | An assessment attributable to uncollateralized public deposits of a failed bank of $184,000 during the year ended December 31, 2009 (included in other expense). |
| • | | For the year ended December 31, 2009, marketing expense increased $288,000 from the same period in the prior year. A significant amount of this increase was the result of the costs associated with a checking account acquisition program. |
