QUARTERLY REPORT TO STOCKHOLDERS
2016 FIRST QUARTER
First Mid Announces:
| ▪ | Record Quarterly Earnings |
| ▪ | Growth in Earnings Per Share |
| ▪ | Continued Strong Asset Quality Metrics |
| ▪ | Receipt of Industry Performance Award |
I am pleased to report that 2016 is off to a good start with growth in earnings and earnings per share, continued strong asset quality ratios, and an increase in tangible book value per share from year-end. Net income for the first quarter of 2016 was the highest net income total that we have ever had for a quarter. First quarter net income increased to $4,806,000 compared to $4,039,000 for the first quarter of 2015 for an increase of 19%. On a per share basis, diluted earnings per share were $.49 per share for the first three months of 2016 compared to $.48 for the same period in 2015. The 2016 and 2015 financial reports include operating results for 12 Southern Illinois banking centers since acquisition from Old National Bancorp on August 14, 2015 and operating results from the Illiana Insurance Agency since acquisition on December 1, 2015.
2016 year-to-date (YTD) net income increased due to greater net interest income with growth in earning assets from the branch acquisition and increases in loan balances from our legacy markets, reduced provision for loan loss expense with net recoveries for the quarter, and increases in revenues from insurance and electronic services.
YTD net interest income totaled $16.1 million compared to $12.6 million for the same period last year. YTD average earning assets were $445 million higher than last year due to the branch acquisition and growth in loan balances from our legacy markets. Loan balances increased over the past year with $1.28 billion as of March 31, 2016 compared to $1.05 billion on March 31, 2015. $156 million in loans were acquired in the branch acquisition and we also increased commercial operating and commercial real estate loan balances across our market area. Loan balances have declined by $5 million since year-end primarily due to seasonal paydowns on agricultural operating loans. In addition, investment balances increased as we added securities to invest the cash received from the branch acquisition. The growth in loans and investments from last March increased the level of earning assets resulting in the increase in net interest income. Our deposit balances also increased from $1.28 billion on March 31, 2015 to $1.74 billion on March 31, 2016 with $453 million coming from the branch acquisition. Since year-end, deposit balances have increased by $7.8 million with growth in checking and savings account balances. As anticipated, the additional cash from the branch acquisition elevated our federal funds sold and interest-bearing balances at correspondent banks which reduced our earning asset yields and resulted in a decline in our net interest margin. The net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis for the first quarter of 2016 was 3.37% compared to 3.44% for the same period last year. We continue to make progress executing the plan to move excess liquidity to loans and investments. We ended the quarter with $34.6 million in federal funds sold and interest-bearing balances at banks which improved the net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis to 3.37% for the first quarter of 2016 from 3.29% for the fourth quarter of 2015.
During the first quarter of 2016, we had net recoveries of previous charge-offs of $47,000. We also had net recoveries during the first quarter last year of $159,000. Our non-performing loans and other real estate owned were $4.7 million at March 31, 2016 compared to $4.9 million at March 31, 2015. The continued positive trend in these two metrics allowed us to reduce the provision for loan losses for the first quarter. Our year-to-date provision for loan losses declined to $113,000 for the first three months of 2016 compared to $265,000 for the first three months of 2015. We also continue to have a strong coverage ratio of the allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans of 339% as of March 31, 2016.
Non-interest income for the first quarter of 2016 was $6.6 million compared to $4.8 million for the same period last year. Insurance commissions were $698,000 higher than last year with the revenues from Illiana Insurance Agency which are generally higher in the first quarter due to timing of policies underwritten and greater income from carriers based upon claims experience. YTD revenues from electronic services were $483,000 greater than last year and deposit service charges increased by $320,000 with the addition of the Southern Illinois branch locations. Revenues from the trust and wealth management area were $231,000 higher than the first three months of last year due to greater brokerage revenue.
Operating expenses for the first three months of 2016 were $15.2 million as compared to $10.8 million last year. The operating expenses of the acquired branch locations and the Illiana Insurance Agency are included for the first quarter of 2016. Salaries and benefits expense increased to $7.8 million compared to $6.1 million for the same period last year as full-time equivalent employees
increased to 516 from 398 as of March 31, 2015. Occupancy expenses also increased to $2.9 million from $2.0 million for the first quarter of last year with the addition of the 12 branch locations. In December, we completed construction and moved into a new, more efficient branch facility in Monticello, Illinois. During the first quarter, we donated the existing branch building in Monticello and $653,000 is included in donations expense reflecting the net book value deductible for tax purposes. The move enabled us to lower long-term occupancy costs and to create a better customer experience. The initial response for the new facility from customers and the Monticello community has been outstanding.
Our regulatory capital ratios remain strong and in excess of the regulatory minimums to be considered well-capitalized. Two of the four regulatory capital ratios increased from year-end while tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets and total capital to risk-weighted assets declined slightly as we continue to move cash into loans and investments that require a higher allocation. Our tangible book value per share increased during the quarter to $15.97 at March 31, 2016 compared to $15.09 at year-end while down from $16.56 on March 31, 2015. The tangible book value is lower than last March due to the goodwill and intangibles added from the acquisitions.
First Mid-Illinois Bancshares, Inc. was recognized for its financial performance recently. We were selected as one of the 100 best-performing community banks in 2015 with assets between $1 billion and $10 billion by S&P Global Market Intelligence. The top performing community banks were identified based upon six financial metrics including return-on-average tangible assets, net charge-offs to average loans, efficiency ratio, adjusted Texas ratio, net interest margin, and loan growth rate. First Mid was one of the two banks in the state of Illinois recognized with this award. We are proud of our financial performance and were pleased to receive this prestigious award.
In conclusion, the year is off to a good start with solid financial results and it is gratifying to receive acknowledgement from banking industry groups for our performance. It is a testimony to the hard work and dedication of our over 500 professional employees. Thank you for your continued support of First Mid-Illinois Bancshares, Inc. and please contact me if you should have any questions.
