PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS
RETAIL/COMMERCIAL BANKING
Pre-tax income for Retail/Commercial Banking increased 36 percent to $118.7 million for first quarter 2005, compared to $87.7 million for first quarter 2004. Retail/Commercial Banking contributed 73 percent of total pre-tax income in first quarter 2005 compared to 49 percent in first quarter 2004. Total revenues increased 16 percent to $319.3 million for first quarter 2005 compared to $274.1 million for first quarter 2004.
Net interest income increased 25 percent to $197.9 million in first quarter 2005 from $158.1 million in first quarter 2004. The increase in 2005's net interest income is primarily attributable to 19 percent loan growth which consisted of 26 percent or $1.6 billion growth in commercial loans and 14 percent or $1.1 billion growth in retail loans. This growth reflects FHN's national expansion strategies, which leverage cross-sell opportunities in markets where we have a substantial mortgage presence and expansion of the sales force. Loan growth was partially funded by an increase in core deposits of 11 percent. Retail/Commercial Banking's net interest margin for first quarter 2005 was stable compared to first quarter 2004, and the margin increased 5 basis points compared to fourth quarter 2004.
Noninterest income increased 5 percent in first quarter 2005 to $121.4 million compared to $116.0 million in first quarter 2004. The increase in noninterest income in first quarter 2005 included $10.4 million net gains from whole-loan sales of approximately $440 million of real estate residential loans. Included in first quarter 2004 are $5.0 million net gains from the securitization of approximately $300 million of real estate residential loans. Also impacting growth in noninterest income is a 22 percent increase in merchant processing income reflecting increased volume from existing customers as well as an expanded customer base.
The provision for loan losses decreased to $13.1 million in first quarter 2005 from $14.2 million last year primarily due to improvements in the risk profile of both the retail and commercial loan portfolios. The risk profile of the retail portfolio improved as the mix shifted to a greater concentration of high credit score products. The risk profile of the commercial loan portfolio improved as indicated by current lower levels of watch and classified loans.
Noninterest expense was $187.5 million in first quarter 2005 compared to $172.2 million last year. The growth in noninterest expense was due to higher personnel costs which were largely attributable to national expansion initiatives. As total revenue grew 16 percent and noninterest expense grew 9 percent, the efficiency ratio improved from 63 percent in first quarter 2004 to 59 percent in first quarter 2005. This improvement in the efficiency ratio was accomplished through FHN's ability to leverage current infrastructure while executing national expansion initiatives.
MORTGAGE BANKING
Pre-tax income for Mortgage Banking decreased 35 percent to $41.2 million for first quarter 2005, compared to $63.5 million for first quarter 2004. Total revenues were $155.5 million in first quarter 2005, a decrease of 5 percent from $163.2 million in first quarter 2004.
Noninterest income decreased 6 percent to $122.6 million in first quarter 2005 compared to $130.8 million in first quarter 2004. Noninterest income consists primarily of mortgage banking-related revenue, net of costs, from the origination and sale of mortgage loans, fees from mortgage servicing and mortgage servicing rights (MSR) net hedge gains or losses. Total noninterest income is net of amortization, impairment and other expenses related to MSR and related hedges.
Mortgage loan origination volumes in first quarter 2005 were $7.6 billion compared to $6.9 billion in 2004 driven by an increase in home purchase related originations, which grew 39 percent from first quarter 2004. This increase demonstrates FHN's success in executing its strategy to grow the purchase market and was the result of an expanded sales force which increased 19 percent to almost 2,000 relationship managers. Refinance activity represented 47 percent of total originations during first quarter 2005 compared to 58 percent last year. Loans delivered into the secondary market increased 20 percent to $7.4 billion. Net revenue from originating and selling mortgage loans (generally driven by origination volumes and loans securitized and sold) increased 4 percent to $100.0 million compared to $95.8 million in first quarter 2004.
The mortgage-servicing portfolio grew 25 percent to $88.0 billion on March 31, 2005, from $70.3 billion on March 31, 2004. Total fees associated with mortgage servicing increased 25 percent to $67.9 million reflecting this growth. In addition, the growth in the servicing portfolio and rising interest rates led to a 41 percent increase in capitalized mortgage servicing rights and a 38 percent, or $12.9 million, increase in amortization expense compared to first quarter 2004. In total, the $14.6 million decrease in net servicing revenues consists of these and several other factors, including a decrease of $13.8 million in MSR net hedge gains and a favorable $4.2 million impact from lower MSR impairment charges. In addition, mortgage trading securities valuations had a negative $6.0 million impact on net servicing revenue due to the flattening of the yield curve and the negative impact of decreased volatility in the derivative market.
Noninterest expense increased 15 percent in first quarter 2005 to $114.3 million compared to $99.7 million in first quarter 2004. In first quarter 2005, noninterest expense was unfavorably impacted primarily by increased personnel expense associated with growth in the sales force.
CAPITAL MARKETS
Pre-tax earnings declined from $30.8 million in first quarter 2004 to $9.3 million in first quarter 2005 primarily due to a reduction in fixed income securities sales, net of a related decline in commissions and incentives. Significant uncertainties within the investment community regarding interest rates and other economic factors have caused fixed income investors to delay their purchases. As a result of these impacts, revenues from fixed income sales to depository and non-depository investors fell $19.0 million. First quarter 2005 results include impacts from the acquisition of the fixed income business of Spear, Leeds and Kellogg (SLK) which created one-time transition costs of approximately $3 million from the cost of carrying additional trading inventory and other expenses. Due to the SLK acquisition, non-depository revenues exceeded depository revenues and represented 36 percent of noninterest income in first quarter 2005 compared to 27 percent in first quarter 2004. Revenues from other fee sources in clude fee income from activities such as investment banking, equity research, portfolio advisory and the sale of bank-owned life insurance. Revenue from other fee sources decreased 10 percent from $37.3 million first quarter 2004 to $33.4 million in first quarter 2005.
Net interest income decreased $6.1 million due to an incremental capital charge of $4.6 million associated with funding the increase in business activities related to the SLK acquisition, as well as, $3.0 million due to the cost of carrying additional trading inventory.
Noninterest expense decreased 8 percent or $7.5 million, primarily due to lower personnel expense, reflecting the decline in commissions and incentives. The decline in noninterest expense was partially offset by increased costs associated with the acquisition of SLK.
CORPORATE
The Corporate segment's results showed a pre-tax loss of $6.3 million in first quarter 2005, compared to a pre-tax loss of $2.1 million in first quarter 2004 primarily related to a decrease in net interest income from a shift in balance sheet positioning. In March 2005, First Tennessee Bank National Association issued 300,000 shares of noncumulative perpetual preferred stock which provided $295.4 million additional capital.
AVERAGE BALANCE SHEET
Total average assets increased 37 percent to $34.1 billion for first quarter 2005. Total loans increased 19 percent to $16.7 billion as retail loans increased 14 percent and commercial loans grew 26 percent. Loans held for sale increased 62 percent to $5.3 billion. Interest-bearing core deposits increased 13 percent to $6.7 billion. Total core deposits increased 12 percent reflecting expansion strategies which emphasize a focus on convenient hours, free checking and targeted financial center expansion. Purchased funds increased 64 percent to $16.3 billion. Average shareholders' equity increased 9 percent in first quarter 2005.
The consolidated net interest margin was 3.12 percent for first quarter 2005 compared to 3.68 percent for first quarter 2004. This compression in the margin occurred as the spread decreased to 2.80 percent in 2005 from 3.45 percent in 2004 while average earning assets increased 37 percent and net interest income increased only 16 percent. Capital markets activities tend to compress the margin because of its strategy to reduce market risk by hedging its inventory in the cash markets, which reduces the term and accordingly the interest income earned on these transactions. The SLK acquisition increased this negative pressure on the corporate margin in first quarter 2005 as the capital markets balance sheet grew $3.7 billion. In addition, the mortgage warehouse negatively impacted the margin this quarter as the spread decreased 102 basis points to 2.89 percent and the volume grew 28 percent from 2004.
ASSET QUALITY
Continuing last year's trend, FHN's key asset quality ratios improved in first quarter 2005. The net charge-off ratio was 17 basis points in first quarter 2005 compared to 34 basis points in first quarter 2004 as net charge-offs decreased to $7.1 million from $11.8 million. Net charge-offs were impacted in first quarter 2005 by improvement in both the consumer and commercial loan portfolios. The nonperforming assets ratio was 38 basis points in first quarter 2005 compared to 48 basis points last year with nonperforming assets of $75.1 million on March 31, 2005, compared to $77.5 million on March 31, 2004. Provision for loan losses was $13.1 million in first quarter 2005 compared to $14.2 million in first quarter 2004. An analytical model based on historical loss experience adjusted for current events, trends and economic conditions is used by management to determine the amount of provision to be recognized and to assess the adequacy of the loan loss allowance. (See the table on A-4 for an analysis of the all owance for loan losses and details on nonperforming assets and the table on A-5 for asset quality ratios).
OUTLOOK
