CEO COMMENTARY |
|
Harris H. Simmons, Chairman and CEO of Zions Bancorporation, commented, “We are pleased with the financial results of the second quarter of 2021. Perhaps most notably, credit performance continues to be very strong as evidenced by modest net recoveries on loans. We also now believe that future losses will be significantly less than previously expected, with the result that we released more than $120 million of our allowance for credit losses.”
Mr. Simmons continued, “Excluding PPP loans, we were also pleased with the relative stability of period-end loan balances, as well as a continued strong performance in the growth of deposits, with noninterest bearing deposits equaling nearly one half of total deposits at quarter end. Finally, our capital position is particularly strong relative to our risk profile, with our CET1 ratio reaching 11.3%, up from 10.2% at the beginning of the pandemic.” |

Net interest income decreased $8 million, or 1%, to $555 million in the second quarter of 2021, from $563 million in the second quarter of 2020. Total interest income decreased $25 million, or 4%, due to a $22 million decrease in interest and fees on loans and a $6 million decrease in interest on securities. The decrease in total interest income was primarily attributable to the lower interest rate environment. Interest expense decreased $17 million, or 53%, due to a $16 million decline in interest paid on deposits and a $1 million decline in interest paid on short- and long-term borrowings. The decreases were attributable to lower rates on both categories and reduced balances of borrowed funds, given strong deposit growth of $10 billion, or 16%.
The net interest margin compressed to 2.79%, compared with 3.23% in the same prior year period. The yield on average interest-earning assets was 2.86% in the second quarter of 2021, a decrease of 55 basis points, compared with the same prior year quarter. Average money market investments, including short-term deposits held at the Federal Reserve, increased to 12.7% of average interest-earning assets, compared with 2.3% in the same prior year period. This increase had a significant dilutive effect on the net interest margin.
Average interest-earning assets included $5.9 billion of Small Business Administration ("SBA") Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loans with a yield of 4.56%. During the second quarter of 2021, about 12,000 PPP loans, totaling $2.4 billion, received forgiveness by the SBA and contributed $36 million of interest income through accelerated recognition of net unamortized deferred fees on these loans. Total interest income from PPP loans was $68 million during the second quarter of 2021. As of June 30, 2021, unamortized net origination fees related to the PPP loans totaled approximately $137 million.
The yield on loans decreased 6 basis points from the second quarter of 2020, and, excluding PPP loans, the yield on loans decreased 23 basis points from the second quarter of 2020. The decrease was primarily due to lower benchmark interest rates, but also reflected continued pricing pressure, which was partially attributable to the surplus liquidity in the marketplace. The yield on non-PPP loans originated during the second quarter of 2021 was moderately less than

the yield on loans maturing or otherwise paying down. The yield on securities decreased 49 basis points from the second quarter of 2020, primarily from lower yields on investments purchased in previous quarters.
The annualized cost of total deposits for the second quarter of 2021 was 0.04%, compared with 0.15% for the second quarter of 2020. The rate paid on total deposits and interest-bearing liabilities was 0.08%, a decrease from 0.19% during the second quarter of 2020, which was primarily due to lower deposit rates and strong noninterest bearing deposit growth. Average noninterest bearing deposits as a percentage of total deposits were 49% for the second quarter of 2021, compared with 46% for the same prior year period.

Total noninterest income for the second quarter of 2021 increased $88 million, or 75%, to $205 million, from $117 million for the prior year quarter. Total customer-related fees increased to $139 million from $130 million for the same periods. Card fees increased $5 million, commercial account fees increased $4 million, and wealth management and retail and business banking fees both increased $3 million, all primarily due to improved customer transaction volume and new client activity. Loan-related fees and income decreased $6 million, primarily due to a decline in our residential mortgage originations held for sale.
Securities gains increased $67 million from the second quarter of 2020, largely as a result of a $63 million unrealized gain related to the successful completion of an initial public offering (“IPO”) of one of our Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”) investments, Recursion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. This investment will be marked-to-market until we fully divest of our shares, which are subject to a minimum 180-day lock-up period from the initial offering. An associated $9 million accrued success fee will also be adjusted based on the mark-to-market value of the investment.
We also recognized a $5 million loss related to a credit valuation adjustment (“CVA”) on client-related interest rate swaps, compared with a $12 million CVA loss in the second quarter of 2020. The CVA loss for the current quarter was primarily due to a decline in interest rates, which increased the value of, and our credit exposure to, the client-related interest rate swaps.

Noninterest expense declined $2 million, when compared with the second quarter of 2020. This decline was largely attributable to a $15 million decrease in other noninterest expense, primarily due to the $28 million pension plan termination-related expense recognized during the second quarter of 2020, and partially offset by a $9 million success fee accrual related to the IPO of the SBIC investment previously discussed. Salaries and benefits expense increased $5 million, or 2%, primarily due to higher profit sharing as a result of improved profitability. Professional and legal services expense increased $7 million, or 70%, primarily due to various technology-related and other outsourced services.
Adjusted noninterest expense increased $17 million, or 4%, to $419 million, compared with $402 million for the same prior year quarter, primarily due to the increases in salaries and benefits and professional and legal services expenses previously discussed. The efficiency ratio was 59.1%, compared with 57.3% for the second quarter of 2020.

Net loan and lease recoveries were $2 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared with net charge-offs of $31 million in the prior year quarter. The ratio of nonaccrual loans and accruing loans past due 90 days or more to loans and leases (ex-PPP) was 0.66%, compared with 0.73% for the second quarter of 2020, and the ratio of classified loans to total loans and leases (ex-PPP) was 3.3%, compared with 3.0%, for the prior year quarter.
We recorded a negative $123 million provision for credit losses, compared with a negative $132 million provision during the first quarter of 2021, and a positive $168 million provision for the second quarter of 2020. The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) was $574 million at June 30, 2021, compared with $695 million at March 31, 2021, and $914 million at June 30, 2020. The decrease in the ACL was due largely to an improvement in the economic outlook, compared with the more stressed economic outlook at the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic. The ratio of total ACL to total loans and leases (ex-PPP) was 1.22% at June 30, 2021, compared with 1.48% at March 31, 2021, and 1.88% at June 30, 2020.

Loans and leases, net of unearned income and fees, decreased $3.7 billion, or 7%, to $51.4 billion at June 30, 2021, from $55.1 billion at June 30, 2020, primarily due to the forgiveness of PPP loans. Excluding PPP loans, total loans and leases decreased $1.5 billion, or 3%, to $46.9 billion at June 30, 2021, including a $0.3 billion, or 1%, decrease in commercial loans, as economic uncertainty and an abundance of liquidity in the marketplace continued to adversely impact loan demand. Within commercial loans, a $1.1 billion decrease in commercial and industrial loans was partially offset by a $680 million increase in municipal loans. Commercial real estate construction and land development loans increased $209 million, and within consumer loans, 1-4 family residential mortgage loans decreased $1.1 billion, primarily due to continued refinancing activity. Unfunded lending commitments and letters of credit increased $1.5 billion, or 6%, to $25.7 billion at June 30, 2021, from $24.2 billion at June 30, 2020, primarily due to a decrease in commitment utilization.

Total deposits increased $10.4 billion, or 16%, to $76.1 billion as of June 30, 2021, primarily due to a $7.4 billion increase in noninterest-bearing deposits. Average total deposits increased to $74.6 billion, compared with $63.0 billion for the second quarter of 2020. Average noninterest-bearing deposits increased 26% to $36.5 billion, from $29.1 billion for the second quarter of 2020, and were 49% and 46% of average total deposits, respectively, for the same periods.
Total borrowed funds decreased $0.2 billion, or 7%, to $2.0 billion as of June 30, 2021. Average borrowed funds decreased to $2.1 billion, compared with $4.0 billion for the prior year quarter. The decrease in both end-of-period and average borrowed funds reflects less reliance on federal funds purchased and other short-term borrowings due to the strength of deposit growth, which significantly exceeded earning asset growth over this period.

During the second quarter of 2021, the common stock dividend was $0.34 per share, unchanged from the prior year quarter. Weighted average diluted shares outstanding decreased 1.4 million from the second quarter of 2020, primarily due to share repurchases. During the second quarter of 2021, we repurchased 1.7 million common shares outstanding for $100 million at an average price of $57.95 per share. We also redeemed the outstanding shares of our 5.75% Series H Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock at par value, resulting in a $126 million decrease of preferred stock.
Accumulated other comprehensive income decreased $180 million to $175 million as of June 30, 2021, primarily due to decreases in the fair value of available-for-sale securities as a result of changes in interest rates.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations
(Unaudited)
This press release presents non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP financial measures, to provide investors with additional information. The adjustments to reconcile from the applicable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures are presented in the following schedules. We consider these adjustments to be relevant to ongoing operating results and provide a meaningful base for period-to-period and company-to-company comparisons. These non-GAAP financial measures are used by us to assess our performance and financial position and for presentations of our performance to investors. We further believe that presenting these non-GAAP financial measures will permit investors to assess our performance on the same basis as that applied by our management.
Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, and are not required to be uniformly applied by individual entities. Although non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by stakeholders to evaluate a company, they have limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results reported under GAAP. The following are non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release and a discussion of the reasons for which we use these non-GAAP measures:
Tangible Book Value per Common Share – this schedule also includes “tangible common equity.” Tangible book value per common share is a non-GAAP financial measure that we believe provides additional useful information about the level of tangible equity in relation to outstanding shares of common stock. We believe the use of ratios that utilize tangible equity provides additional useful information about capital adequacy because they present measures of those assets that can generate income.

Return on Average Tangible Common Equity (“ROTCE”) – this schedule also includes “net earnings applicable to common shareholders, net of tax” and “average tangible common equity.” ROTCE is a non-GAAP financial measure that we believe provides useful information about our use of shareholders’ equity. We believe the use of ratios that utilize tangible equity provides additional useful information about our performance because they present measures of those assets that can generate income.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations
(Unaudited)
Efficiency Ratio – this schedule also includes “adjusted noninterest expense,” “taxable-equivalent net interest income,” “adjusted taxable-equivalent revenue,” “pre-provision net revenue (PPNR)” and “adjusted PPNR.” The methodology of determining the efficiency ratio may differ among companies. We make adjustments to exclude certain items as identified in the subsequent schedule which we believe allows for more consistent comparability among periods. We believe the efficiency ratio provides useful information regarding the cost of generating revenue. Adjusted noninterest expense provides a measure as to how well we are managing our expenses, and adjusted PPNR enables us and others to assess our ability to generate capital to cover credit losses through a credit cycle. Taxable-equivalent net interest income allows us to assess the comparability of revenue arising from both taxable and tax-exempt sources.
