MIDWESTONE FINANCIAL GROUP, INC.
REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND YEAR 2015 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Iowa City, Iowa, January 28, 2016 - MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc. (NASDAQ - MOFG) today reported its financial results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2015, including eight months of results after its merger with Central Bancshares, Inc. (“Central”), which closed on May 1, 2015. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2015 totaled $8.2 million, compared with $3.9 million for the same period last year. Basic and diluted earnings per share were $0.72 for the fourth quarter of 2015, compared with $0.46 for both basic and diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2014. After excluding the effects of $0.1 million of expenses related to the merger with Central, adjusted diluted earnings per share for the fourth quarter of 2015 were $0.73, compared to $0.57 for the same period last year, reflecting growth of 28.1%.
Earnings comparisons between the fourth quarter of 2015 and the same period in 2014 were affected primarily by the Central acquisition, highlighted by the following:
• | a 92.4% increase in net interest income, due primarily to a 78.1% increase in interest income which included merger-related discount accretion of $1.3 million; |
• | an 87.8% increase in noninterest income, driven by increases in other service charges, commissions and fees, service charges and fees on deposit accounts, and mortgage origination and loan servicing fees; and |
• | a 14.3% decrease in income tax expense, due to the recognition of additional rehabilitation and historic tax credits on the Company’s headquarters building; offset by |
• | an increase of $1.2 million in the provision for loan losses, due primarily to loan growth; and |
• | a 92.3% increase in noninterest expense, primarily due to a 107.3% increase in salaries and employee benefits which resulted mainly from the additional compensation expense associated with the Central acquisition. |
“We continue to make significant progress with our merger integration and are pleased with the 2015 financial results,” stated President and Chief Executive Officer, Charles N. Funk. “The fourth quarter saw continued robust loan growth from the Central Bank footprint, which was a key contributor to our overall results. As in prior quarters, the fourth quarter contained some one-time items, notably the sale of our our Ottumwa branch and the finalization of our historic tax credits, most of which positively impacted our results. We are also on track to merge Central Bank into MidWestOne Bank early in the second quarter of 2016.”
Net income for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $25.1 million, an increase of $6.6 million, or 35.6%, compared to $18.5 million of net income for the same period in 2014, with diluted earnings per share of $2.42 and $2.19 for the comparative annual periods, respectively. The increase in net income was due primarily to the merger with Central, with higher net interest income and increased noninterest income, partially offset by increased noninterest expense and income tax expense. After excluding the effects of $3.5 million ($3.0 million after tax) of expenses related to the merger, adjusted diluted earnings per share for the year ended December 31, 2015 were $2.70, compared to $2.31 for the same period last year, reflecting growth of 16.9%.
Results of Operations
Net interest income of $26.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 increased $12.9 million, or 92.4%, from $13.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2014, primarily due to the merger. An increase in average loan balances, and the effect of the merger-
1
related discount accretion of $1.3 million, resulted in loan interest income growth of $13.2 million, or 106.8%, to $25.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to the fourth quarter of 2014. Income from investment securities decreased to $3.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to $3.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2014, reflective of a decrease of $1.4 million in the average balance and a decrease of 9 basis points in the yield of investment securities between the two comparable periods. There was no income from loan pool participations for the fourth quarter of 2015, as the Company sold its remaining loan pool participations in June 2015, and has completely exited this line of business. Income from loan pool participations was $0.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. Interest expense decreased $0.1 million, or 5.0%, to $2.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2015, compared to $2.4 million for the same period in 2014, primarily due to decreased interest expense on deposits due to the merger-related amortization of the purchase accounting premium on certificates of deposit in the amount of $0.5 million and the lower expense on Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) borrowings which resulted from the decrease of $6.0 million in outstanding FHLB advances between December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2015. These decreases were partially offset by the additional cost of merger-related assumptions of debt.
Net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $90.1 million, up $35.2 million, or 64.2%, from $54.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, primarily due to the merger. Loan interest income increased $38.1 million, or 78.6%, to $86.5 million for the year of 2015 compared to the year of 2014, primarily due to the merger-related increase in average loan balances of $870.6 million, or 79.7%, between the two periods, and the effect of the merger-related discount accretion of $4.4 million. Interest income on investment securities decreased $1.1 million, or 7.6%, to $13.3 million for the year of 2015 compared to the year of 2014 due to a decrease of 25 basis points on the portfolio’s yield between the comparative periods. Interest expense was $10.6 million, including $1.1 million in merger-related amortization of the purchase accounting premium on certificates of deposit, for the year ended December 31, 2015, an increase of $1.1 million, or 11.5%, compared to the year of 2014.
The net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2015, calculated on a fully tax-equivalent basis, was 4.04%, or 57 basis points higher than 3.47% for the fourth quarter of 2014. A higher yield received on interest-earning assets, positively affected by purchase accounting adjustments as noted above, combined with lower rates paid on interest-bearing deposits, resulted in the improved margin. The Company posted a net interest margin of 3.71% for the year of 2015, up 18 basis points from 3.53% for the same period in 2014.
The provision for loan losses for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $1.5 million, an increase from $0.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. The increased provision primarily reflects the increase in outstanding loan balances due to organic loan growth. The provision for loan losses for the year of 2015 was $5.1 million, up $3.9 million from $1.2 million for the same period in 2014, due to both the merger and organic loan growth.
Noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2015 increased to $6.6 million, up $3.1 million, or 87.8%, from $3.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2014, due primarily to the merger. The increase was primarily in other service charges, commissions and fees, which increased by $2.4 million, or 409.9%, from $0.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2014 to $3.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2015. While the majority of this increase was due to the merger, $0.7 million represents the gain on sale of our Ottumwa, Iowa branch, which was completed in early December 2015. Service charges and fees on deposit accounts in the fourth quarter of 2015 increased $0.4 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2014, and mortgage origination and loan servicing fees rose $0.3 million, or 88.6%, from $0.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2014 to $0.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2015. The noted increases were partially offset by decreased gains on the sale of available for sale securities of $0.1 million.
For the year ended December 31, 2015, noninterest income rose to $21.2 million, an increase of $5.9 million, or 38.4%, from $15.3 million during the same period of 2014. While all but two of the major noninterest income categories improved, primarily due to the merger, the greatest increase for the year ended December 31, 2015, was in other service charges, commissions and fees, which rose from $2.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, to $5.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, an increase of $3.3 million, or 141.2%. While the majority of this increase was due to the merger, $0.7 million represents the gain on sale of our Ottumwa, Iowa branch, which was completed in early December 2015. Mortgage origination and loan servicing fees in the year ended December 31, 2015 increased $1.2 million, or 77.3%, from $1.6 million for the same period in 2014. Another significant contributor to the overall increase in noninterest income was service charges and fees on deposit accounts, which increased $1.1 million to $4.4 million, for the year of 2015, compared with $3.3 million for the same period of 2014. Trust, investment, and insurance fees also increased to $6.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2015, an improvement of $0.2 million, or 4.1%, from $5.8 million for the same period in 2014. These increases were partially offset by decreased gains on the sale of available for sale securities of $0.2 million between the two periods.
Fourth quarter 2015 noninterest expense was $22.2 million, up $10.7 million, or 92.3%, from the fourth quarter of 2014. The increase was mainly due to operating a larger company with a new market following the Central merger. Salaries and employee benefits increased $6.9 million, or 107.3%, between the fourth quarter of 2014 and the fourth quarter of 2015 mainly as a result of the increased number of employees of the Company after the merger. Likewise, net occupancy and equipment expense increased $1.9 million, or 124.8%, from $1.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2014 to $3.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 mainly due
2
to the merger. Merger-related expenses in the fourth quarter of 2015 were $0.1 million, compared to $1.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2014. The majority of these expenses were comprised of professional fees expense, which decreased $0.5 million, or 30.6%, for the fourth quarter of 2015, compared with the fourth quarter of 2014. Other operating expense for the fourth quarter of 2015 increased $1.1 million, or 78.2%, compared with the fourth quarter of 2014, primarily due to the merger.
“Our fourth quarter salary expense was a bit higher than expected due to the need to true up accruals for incentive compensation at Central Bank,” stated Mr. Funk. “As discussed above, loan demand the last six months of the year was robust and payouts wound up being higher than originally forecast.”
Noninterest expense increased to $73.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared with $43.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, an increase of $29.8 million, or 68.6%. As with the quarterly expenses, the increase was mainly due to the inclusion of expenses related to the closing of the merger and eight months of post-merger expenses. Salaries and employee benefits increased $16.9 million, or 68.0%, from the year ended December 31, 2014 to the year ended December 31, 2015. Merger-related expenses paid were $3.5 million ($3.0 million after tax), for the year ended December 31, 2015. These expenses are reflected mainly in professional fees expense of $4.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2015, compared to professional fees expense of $3.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, and an increase of $3.6 million, or 64.5%, in other operating expense for the year of 2015 compared to the same period a year ago.
“We have identified several areas in which we expect a reduction in noninterest expense in future periods from the merger,” continued Mr. Funk. “Our goal is to complete the identification of noninterest expenses that can be reduced during 2016, and implement these reductions in expense in 2016 and 2017.”
Income tax expense was $1.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2015 compared to $1.7 million for the same period in 2014, and was $7.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2015 compared to $7.0 million for the same period in 2014. This expense variation was primarily due to a change in the level of taxable income between the comparable periods because of the merger, which was offset in part by the recognition of the estimated income tax benefit of rehabilitation and historic tax credits on the Company’s headquarters building in the amount of $1.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2015, and $2.3 million for the year 2015.
Balance Sheet and Asset Quality
Due primarily to the merger, total assets increased to $2.98 billion at December 31, 2015 from $1.80 billion at December 31, 2014. The main areas of asset increases were loans, goodwill, premises and equipment, and cash and cash equivalents. These increases were partially offset by a decrease in loan pool participations due to the sale of the entire portfolio in the second quarter of 2015. Total deposits at December 31, 2015, were $2.46 billion, an increase of $1.05 billion from December 31, 2014, due primarily to the merger. The deposit increase was concentrated in interest-bearing checking deposits, which increased $445.8 million, or 72.1%, to $1.06 billion at December 31, 2015, from $618.5 million at December 31, 2014, and non-interest-bearing demand deposits, which increased $345.1 million, or 160.9% between these two dates. Junior subordinated notes issued to capital trusts increased by $8.1 million, or 52.5%, between December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2015, due to the assumption of notes in the merger with Central. The Company initiated new long-term borrowings from an unaffiliated bank of $25.0 million during the second quarter of 2015 in connection with the closing of the merger. At December 31, 2015, this note had an outstanding balance of $22.5 million. These increases were somewhat offset by a decrease in federal funds purchased of $15.9 million between December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2015, and a decline in FHLB borrowings of $6.0 million, or 6.5%, between December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2015, to $87.0 million at December 31, 2015.
“Deposit generation throughout the Company is one of our most important goals for 2016,” stated Mr. Funk. “We recently hired a seasoned banker in the Twin Cites who will head up the cash management services area of our Company. We see potential in this area of our business, and our task now is to turn potential into new business booked.”
Total loans (excluding loan pool participations and loans held for sale) increased $1.02 billion, or 90.0%, from December 31, 2014, to $2.15 billion at December 31, 2015, primarily as a result of the merger. While all loan categories saw increased balances, the increases were primarily concentrated in commercial real estate-other, one-to-four-family first liens, and commercial and industrial loans. As of December 31, 2015, the largest category of bank loans was commercial real estate loans, comprising approximately 46% of the portfolio, which included 6% of total loans being construction and development, 6% of total loans being multifamily residential mortgages, and 4% of total loans being farmland. Residential real estate loans was the next largest category at 25% of total loans, followed by commercial and industrial loans at 22%, agricultural loans at 6%, and consumer loans at 2%. The Company also held $25.6 million net of a discount of $7.4 million, or 1.2% of the total loan portfolio, in purchased credit impaired loans as a result of the merger.
“We plan to ensure that the allowance for loan losses in the Central Bank portfolio continues to appropriately reflect new loan growth, and are on target in that regard. Though the allowance for loan losses at year-end covered more than 168% of our n
3
on-performing loans, we are being diligent about monitoring the reserve, which was essentially eliminated by merger accounting when the Central Bank purchase closed,” said Mr. Funk.
Nonperforming bank loans decreased from $13.0 million, or 1.15% of total bank loans, at December 31, 2014, to $11.5 million, or 0.54% of total bank loans, at December 31, 2015. At December 31, 2015, nonperforming loans consisted of $4.0 million in nonaccrual loans, $7.2 million in troubled debt restructures (“TDRs”) and $0.3 million in loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing. This compares to nonaccrual loans of $3.3 million, TDRs of $8.9 million, and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing of $0.8 million at December 31, 2014. The decrease in overall nonperforming loans was primarily due to payments collected from TDR-status borrowers. Loans 90 days past due and still accruing interest decreased $0.6 million between December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2015, while nonaccrual loans increased by $0.8 million between these dates due primarily to the addition of three commercial real estate loans totaling $1.7 million. Bank loans past due 30 to 89 days and still accruing interest (not included in the nonperforming loan totals) increased to $8.5 million at December 31, 2015, compared with $3.9 million at December 31, 2014, primarily due to the merger. At December 31, 2015, other real estate owned (not included in nonperforming loans) was $8.8 million, up from $1.9 million of other real estate owned at December 31, 2014, again, as a result of the merger. During the year of 2015, the Company had a net increase of 44 properties to other real estate owned, including 45 properties that were added as a result of the merger. As of December 31, 2015, the allowance for bank loan losses was $19.4 million, or 0.90% of total loans, compared with $16.4 million, or 1.44% of total bank loans at December 31, 2014. The decrease in the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was due to the purchased loans acquired in the merger being recorded at estimated fair value on their purchase date without a carryover of the related allowance for loan losses. The allowance for loan losses represented 168.52% of nonperforming loans at December 31, 2015, compared with 125.67% of nonperforming loans at December 31, 2014. The Company had net loan charge-offs of $2.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2015, or an annualized 0.11% of average loans outstanding, compared to net charge-offs of $1.0 million, or an annualized 0.09% of average loans outstanding, for the same period of 2014.
Investment securities totaled $545.7 million at December 31, 2015, or 18.3% of total assets, an increase of $19.2 million, or 3.6%, from $526.5 million, or 29.2% of total assets, as of December 31, 2014. A total of $427.2 million of the investment securities were classified as available for sale at December 31, 2015, compared to $474.9 million at December 31, 2014. As of December 31, 2015, the portfolio consisted mainly of obligations of states and political subdivisions (45.8%), mortgage-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations (36.2%), and obligations of U.S. government agencies (4.9%). Investment securities held to maturity were $118.4 million at December 31, 2015, compared to $51.5 million at December 31, 2014. The increase of $66.9 million, or 129.8%, in held to maturity investments was primarily due to the merger.
Capital Adequacy
Total shareholders’ equity was $296.2 million as of December 31, 2015, compared to $192.7 million as of December 31, 2014, an increase of $103.4 million, or 53.7%. This increase was primarily attributable to the stock consideration issued in the merger and stock issued in a private placement, along with net income of $25.1 million for the year of 2015, and a $0.6 million decrease in treasury stock due to the issuance of 31,537 shares of Company common stock in connection with stock compensation plans. These increases were partially offset by a $1.9 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income due to market value adjustments on investment securities available for sale, and the payment of $6.3 million in common stock dividends. No shares of Company common stock were repurchased in the fourth quarter of 2015. The total shareholders’ equity to total assets ratio was 9.94% at December 31, 2015, down from 10.71% at December 31, 2014. The tangible equity to tangible assets ratio was 7.51% at December 31, 2015, compared with 10.29% at December 31, 2014. Tangible book value per share was $19.10 at December 31, 2015, a decrease from $22.08 per share at December 31, 2014, due to the addition of $78.7 million of intangibles related to the Central merger.
“Moving the tangible equity to tangible assets ratio above 8.00% remains a priority. We have made progress with this ratio in the months after the merger closed, and it is above 7.50% at year-end 2015,” concluded Mr. Funk.
Sale of Ottumwa, Iowa MidWestOne Bank Branch Office
On December 4, 2015, MidWestOne Bank, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, completed the sale of its Ottumwa, Iowa branch to Peoples State Bank headquartered in Albia, Iowa, a unit of Peoples Tri-County BanCorp. The sale involved the transfer of approximately $33.0 million in deposits and $17.1 million of loans, with a net gain realized on the sale of $0.7 million.
Sale of Barron and Rice Lake, Wisconsin Central Bank Branch Offices
On October 14, 2015, Central Bank, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an agreement to sell its Barron and Rice Lake, Wisconsin branches to Citizens Community Federal Bank (“CCF Bank”) headquartered in Altoona, Wisconsin, a unit of Citizens Community Bancorp, Inc. of Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Subject to regulatory approval, CCF Bank will
4
assume approximately $30 million in deposits and $21 million in assets, with an expected completion date in the first quarter of 2016 and a net gain expected to be realized on the transaction.
