MEMPHIS, Tenn., Oct. 17, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- First Horizon National Corporation (NYSE:FHN) announced earnings of $116.2 million, or $.90 diluted earnings per share for third quarter 2005. This compares to 2004's third quarter earnings of $113.6 million, or $.89 diluted earnings per share. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, earnings were $328.1 million or $2.55 diluted earnings per share, compared to $351.3 million or $2.73 diluted earnings per share for 2004.
Two of FHN's segments have business operations in the areas impacted by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita and while it is too early to determine the full extent of any losses experienced on the Gulf Coast as a result of these hurricanes, management has been diligently reviewing any exposure that FHN might have in the region. Based on information currently available, third quarter 2005 results include $7.3 million of pre-tax hurricane related losses ($3.8 million in loan loss provision and $3.5 million in mortgage banking related losses). These estimates involve considerable judgment and are inherently imprecise due to a variety of factors, including the unprecedented nature of the disaster and the preliminary nature of the information used to prepare these estimates. Third quarter 2005 results also include a $7.7 million settlement received from an insurance company.
"This quarter's results show solid improvement from last quarter and from third quarter a year ago," said Ken Glass, chairman and CEO of FHN. "I am proud of our employees as they have continued the successful execution of our strategies and produced earnings growth in this difficult operating environment."
Return on average shareholders' equity and return on average assets were 21.1 percent and 1.21 percent, respectively, for third quarter 2005 compared to 23.7 percent and 1.63 percent for third quarter 2004. For the nine months ended September 30, 2005, return on average shareholders' equity and return on average assets were 20.8 percent and 1.21 percent, respectively, compared to 24.9 percent and 1.76 percent for the same period in 2004.
Total assets were $37.0 billion and shareholders' equity was $2.3 billion on September 30, 2005, compared to $28.3 billion and $2.0 billion, respectively, on September 30, 2004.
PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS
Retail/Commercial Banking
Pre-tax income for Retail/Commercial Banking increased 20 percent to $118.9 million for third quarter 2005, compared to $99.4 million for third quarter 2004. Retail/Commercial Banking contributed 70 percent of total pre-tax income in third quarter 2005 compared to 58 percent in third quarter 2004. Total revenues increased 20 percent to $353.7 million for third quarter 2005 compared to $293.7 million for third quarter 2004.
Net interest income increased 26 percent to $224.3 million in third quarter 2005 from $178.7 million in third quarter 2004. The increase in 2005's net interest income is primarily attributable to 18 percent total loan growth with commercial loans growing 33 percent to $9.1 billion from $6.8 billion and retail loans growing 6 percent to $9.5 billion from $9.0 billion. This growth resulted from expansion of the sales force, which increased market share in the core bank, as well as cross-sell opportunities in FHN's national markets where we have a substantial mortgage presence. Total deposits increased 13 percent or $1.2 billion over third quarter 2004. Retail/Commercial Banking's net interest margin for third quarter 2005 was held stable compared to third quarter 2004 by minimizing loan rate spread compression caused by competitive pricing while successfully increasing spreads on deposits in conjunction with Federal Reserve rate increases.
Noninterest income increased 13 percent to $129.4 million in third quarter 2005 from $115.0 million in third quarter 2004. Noninterest income from sales and securitizations of real estate residential loans increased $8.6 million in third quarter 2005 including a $4.0 million reduction of securitized assets which prepaid faster than anticipated. Additionally, a charge of $3.9 million resulted from a write-off of net capitalized expenses on HELOCs held for sale which prepaid faster than anticipated. Merchant processing income increased 18 percent in third quarter 2005, or $3.4 million, reflecting increased volume from existing customers as well as an expanded customer base. Fees from deposit services charges increased $2.7 million compared to third quarter 2004.
The provision for loan losses increased to $22.4 million in third quarter 2005 from $10.1 million last year as the loan portfolio has grown by 18 percent since third quarter 2004. This increase also includes $3.8 million related to hurricane losses. The net charge-off ratio continued to remain at low levels with 20 basis points in third quarter 2005 compared to 22 basis points in third quarter 2004 reflecting the stable risk profile of both the commercial and retail loan portfolios.
Noninterest expense was $212.4 million in third quarter 2005 compared to $184.2 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 20 percent and noninterest expense grew 15 percent, the efficiency ratio improved to 60.0 percent in third quarter 2005 from 62.7 percent in third quarter 2004.
Mortgage Banking
Pre-tax income for Mortgage Banking increased 48 percent to $61.7 million for third quarter 2005, compared to $41.6 million for third quarter 2004. Total revenues were $192.9 million in third quarter 2005, an increase of 31 percent from $146.9 million in third quarter 2004.
Net interest income increased 10 percent to $41.6 million in third quarter 2005 from $37.7 million in third quarter 2004 as the warehouse grew 42 percent. However, the flattening of the yield curve resulted in compression of the spread on the warehouse. Spread on the warehouse was 2.33 percent in third quarter 2005 compared to 3.93 percent for the same period in 2004.
Noninterest income increased 38 percent to $151.3 million in third quarter 2005 compared to $109.2 million in third quarter 2004. Noninterest income was negatively impacted in third quarter 2005 by $3.5 million due to hurricane-related losses. 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. Mortgage servicing noninterest income is net of amortization, impairment and other expenses related to MSR and related hedges.
Mortgage loan origination volumes in third quarter 2005 were $10.6 billion, compared to $6.8 billion in 2004, as refinance activity increased $2.3 billion and home purchase-related originations grew $1.4 billion from third quarter 2004. The increase in home purchase originations demonstrates FHN's success in executing its strategy to grow the purchase market and reflects an expanded sales force of 2,600 which increased 15 percent from 2004. Refinance activity represented 42 percent of total originations during third quarter 2005 compared to 31 percent last year. Loans delivered into the secondary market increased 62 percent to $10.6 billion. Net revenue from mortgage loans sold increased 69 percent to $115.6 million from $68.4 million in third quarter 2004.
The mortgage-servicing portfolio grew 15 percent to $93.6 billion on September 30, 2005, from $81.6 billion on September 30, 2004, including approximately $3 billion of loans for which the servicing rights were acquired in 2004. Total fees associated with mortgage servicing increased 17 percent to $69.7 million from $59.7 million, reflecting this growth. In addition, the growth in the servicing portfolio and rising interest rates led to a 17 percent increase in capitalized mortgage servicing rights and a 26 percent, or $9.8 million, increase in amortization expense compared to third quarter 2004. The total $7.7 million decrease in net servicing revenues consists of this and several other factors, including a favorable $13.4 million impact from MSR impairment charges due to the impact that rising interest rates had on the fair value of MSR. In addition, net servicing revenues were unfavorably impacted by net hedge losses of $3.9 million in third quarter 2005 compared to net hedge gains of $17.3 million in thi rd quarter 2004 as the continued flattening of the yield curve negatively impacted income from hedges and rising interest rates led to increased option expense and reduced income from swap positions.
Noninterest expense increased 25 percent to $131.0 million in third quarter 2005 compared to $105.3 million in third quarter 2004 due to the increased production. However, expense efficiencies implemented in third quarter 2005 combined with the revenue from the increased origination activity created late in the second quarter contributed to improvement in the efficiency ratio, which decreased to 67.9 percent from 71.6 percent in third quarter 2004.
Capital Markets
Pre-tax earnings declined from $18.1 million in third quarter 2004 to $2.6 million in third quarter 2005 due to a reduction in fixed income securities sales and a decrease in net interest income. Significant uncertainties within the investment community regarding interest rates and other economic factors continued to cause fixed income investors to reduce their purchases. Total revenues were $78.5 million in third quarter 2005 compared to $82.8 million in third quarter 2004.
Revenues from fixed income sales fell $4.1 million while revenues from other fee sources increased $9.0 million. Revenues from other fee sources include fee income from activities such as loan sales, investment banking, equity research, portfolio advisory and the sale of bank-owned life insurance. Revenue from these other sources represented 51 percent of total noninterest income in third quarter 2005 compared to 43 percent in third quarter 2004 and increased 26 percent to $43.6 million from $34.6 million, primarily due to increased fees from investment banking and loan sales activities.
Net interest income decreased $9.2 million primarily due to an incremental cost of equity charge of $5.2 million which was largely related to the capital requirements of the acquisition of the fixed income business of Spear, Leeds & Kellogg (SLK) in first quarter 2005 and due to the flattening of the yield curve, resulting in compression of the spread on Capital Markets securities inventory.
Noninterest expense increased 17 percent, or $11.2 million, primarily due to amortization and other increased costs resulting from the SLK acquisition and the acquisition of assets of Alterity Partners, LLC on September 23, 2004.
Corporate
The Corporate segment's results yielded a pre-tax loss of $12.3 million in third quarter 2005 compared to a pre-tax gain of $11.1 million in third quarter 2004. The third quarter 2005 results include $3.4 million in dividend expense on $300 million of noncumulative perpetual preferred stock issued in first quarter 2005, while the third quarter 2004 results include $19.8 million in net security gains as the investment portfolio size was reduced to balance an increase in loans held for sale resulting from a delay in the closing of a securitization and net gains due to the liquidation of a holding company investment.
AVERAGE BALANCE SHEET
Total average assets increased 37 percent to $38.1 billion for third quarter 2005. Total loans increased 18 percent to $18.7 billion as commercial loans grew 33 percent and retail loans increased 7 percent. Loans held for sale increased 72 percent to $6.9 billion. Interest-bearing core deposits increased 12 percent. Total core deposits increased 17 percent to $12.5 billion, reflecting expansion strategies which emphasize a focus on convenient hours, free checking and targeted financial center expansion. Purchased funds increased 67 percent to $19.3 billion. Average shareholders' equity increased 15 percent in third quarter 2005.
The consolidated net interest margin was 3.09 percent for third quarter 2005 compared to 3.60 percent for third quarter 2004. This compression in the margin occurred as the net interest spread decreased to 2.59 percent in 2005 from 3.32 percent in 2004 while average earning assets increased 39 percent and net interest income increased 19 percent. This decline is attributable to two items, the acquisition of SLK and a flatter yield curve. 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 unfavorable impact on the corporate margin compared to last year as Capital Markets' balance sheet grew $3.7 billion and the flattening of the yield curve also negatively impacted the spread on Capital Markets' inventory. Although the mortgage warehouse grew 42 percent from 2004, the flattening of the yield c urve decreased spread on the warehouse by 160 basis points to 2.33 percent, which also had a negative impact on the corporate margin this quarter.
ASSET QUALITY
FHN's key asset quality ratios improved in third quarter 2005. The net charge-off ratio was 20 basis points in third quarter 2005 compared to 22 basis points in third quarter 2004 as strong loan growth increased net charge-offs to $9.2 million from $8.6 million. Net charge-offs were impacted in third quarter 2005 by improvement in the consumer loan portfolios. The nonperforming assets ratio was 35 basis points in third quarter 2005 compared to 48 basis points last year, with nonperforming assets of $80.4 million on September 30, 2005, compared to $85.4 million on September 30, 2004. Provision for loan losses was $22.6 million in third quarter 2005 compared to $10.1 million in third quarter 2004. Included in third quarter provision is $3.8 million related to hurricane losses. 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 a llowance. (See the table on A-6 for an analysis of the allowance for loan losses and details on nonperforming assets and the table on A-7 for asset quality ratios).
OUTLOOK
"As these third quarter results show, FHN has returned to earnings growth. Looking forward there are some important factors to consider as we enter the fourth quarter," said Glass. "First and foremost," Glass continued, "strategic progress will continue. Secondly, the timing benefit to mortgage banking earnings realized this quarter will not be repeated. Thirdly, we will continue our emphasis on earnings enhancements. The combination of these factors without further deterioration of the current operating environment should produce earnings growth in fourth quarter over fourth quarter 2004."
