Independent Bank Corp. Reports Fourth Quarter Net Income of $16.0 Million
Record Operating Earnings in 2014 of $2.50
ROCKLAND, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--January 22, 2015--Independent Bank Corp. (NASDAQ: INDB), parent of Rockland Trust Company, today announced 2014 fourth quarter net income of $16.0 million, which represents an increase of 1.5% as compared to $15.7 million in the prior quarter. Diluted earnings per share remained consistent with the prior quarter at $0.66 for the fourth quarter of 2014. Net income for the full year was $59.9 million, or $2.49 on a diluted earnings per share basis, as compared to $50.3 million, or $2.18 on a diluted earnings per share basis, for the prior year.
The Company’s results contain items that the Company considers non-core, such as merger and acquisition expenses. When excluding such items, net operating earnings for the fourth quarter were $16.6 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, versus the prior quarter’s net operating earnings of $16.2 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, representing increases of 2.5% and 3.0%, respectively. Net operating earnings for 2014 were $59.9 million, or $2.50 on a diluted earnings per share basis, an increase of 8.6% and 4.6%, respectively, when compared to net operating earnings of $55.2 million, or $2.39 per diluted share in 2013.
“Our discipline and focus continues to deliver outstanding results ~ despite a challenging operating environment, 2014 was a record year for earnings due to the teamwork and devotion of my Rockland Trust colleagues,” said Christopher Oddleifson, President and Chief Executive Officer of Independent Bank Corp. and Rockland Trust Company. “We are positioned to sustain organic growth, and have the anticipated closing of Peoples Federal Bancshares acquisition on our horizon. We look forward to deepening and expanding customer relationships in 2015 as we expand in and around Boston and in the other markets we serve.”
BALANCE SHEET
Total assets of $6.4 billion at December 31, 2014 decreased by $19.5 million, or 0.3%, from the prior quarter and increased by $265.7 million, or 4.4%, as compared to the year ago period.
Total loans of $5.0 billion at December 31, 2014 increased by $22.9 million during the fourth quarter, or 1.8%, on an annualized basis, and by $252.4 million, or 5.4%, when compared to the year ago period. Ongoing growth in the commercial real estate, commercial and industrial and small business portfolio was partly offset by slightly lower construction balances. There was also continued modest growth in the home equity portfolios due in part to successful marketing campaigns.
Total deposits of $5.2 billion at December 31, 2014 decreased by $92.0 million, or 1.7%, compared to the prior quarter, partially due to an outflow of deposits relating to the Company’s 1031 Exchange business as well as seasonal declines. Despite the fourth quarter decrease, deposit levels increased $224.0 million, or 4.5%, when compared to the year ago period. Core deposits to total deposits remained consistent with the period ended September 30, 2014, representing 87.3% of total deposits as of December 31, 2014. The overall cost of deposits declined to 0.20% and 0.21%, for the quarter and year-end periods, down one and two basis points, respectively, from the prior quarter and year ago periods.
The securities portfolio decreased from the prior quarter by $9.9 million to $724.0 million at December 31, 2014, due to paydowns and the sale of approximately $4.4 million of low-balance mortgage-backed securities. The securities portfolio comprised 11.4% of total assets as of December 31, 2014.
Stockholders’ equity at December 31, 2014 rose to $640.5 million, an increase of 2.1% from the prior quarter. Compared to the year ago period, stockholders’ equity has increased by $49.0 million, or 8.3%. The strong growth in capital led to an increase in the Company’s tangible book value per share, which increased by $0.52, or 2.8% during the fourth quarter to $19.18. The Company’s tangible common ratio of 7.44% also reflected a strong increase from the prior quarter.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income increased to $49.8 million for the fourth quarter as compared to $49.6 million in the linked quarter, reflective of higher earning asset levels. During the fourth quarter, the Company’s net interest margin remained consistent with the prior quarter at 3.42%, as earning asset yield and total funding cost were essentially stable.
NONINTEREST INCOME
The Company recorded noninterest income of $18.5 million during the fourth quarter, which represents a $1.4 million, or 8.0%, increase from the linked quarter. Significant changes in noninterest income in the fourth quarter compared to the third quarter included the following:
- Deposit account fees and interchange and ATM fees decreased by $141,000, or 1.8%, mainly due to lower transaction activity.
- Investment management income decreased by $129,000, or 2.6%. Full year income rose by 16.7% to $19.6 million and assets under administration of $2.5 billion were 9.4% above prior year levels.
- The cash surrender value of life insurance policies increased $137,000, or 17.7%, due to dividends received on certain policies.
- Loan level derivative income increased $645,000, due to increased volume.
- Other noninterest income was up $874,000, or 46.5%, mainly due to capital gain distributions of $403,000 on the Company’s equity security portfolio, an increase of $248,000 in income on Community Reinvestment Act investments and a gain of $121,000 on the sale of nonequity securities during the quarter.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
The Company recorded noninterest expense of $44.3 million during the fourth quarter, which represents a $1.8 million, or 4.1%, increase from the prior quarter. Significant changes in noninterest expense in the fourth quarter compared to the third quarter included the following:
- Salaries and employee benefits increased $820,000, or 3.5%, due primarily to an increase in performance based incentive compensation.
- Occupancy and equipment expense increased $320,000, or 6.4%, due to costs associated with exiting a lease and increased office equipment expense.
- The Company incurred an additional $586,000 in merger and acquisition costs related to the previously announced Peoples Federal Bancshares acquisition that is expected to close in the first quarter of 2015.
- Other noninterest expenses increased by $745,000, or 6.7%, as the Company experienced higher costs related to loan workouts, sales tax audit, printing, debit cards, investment management systems, legal, and consulting. These increases were offset by a decrease in marketing expenses of $614,000 due to the timing of various initiatives.
The Company generated a return on average assets and a return on average common equity of 0.99% and 9.93%, respectively, in the fourth quarter, as compared to 0.99% and 9.97% in the prior quarter. On an operating basis, the return on average assets and the return on average common equity for the three months ended December 31, 2014 were 1.02% and 10.29%, respectively, as compared to 1.01% and 10.23%, respectively, for the prior quarter.
ASSET QUALITY
All asset quality metrics remained strong during the fourth quarter, due to the Company’s ongoing credit discipline and prudent resolution of problem loans. For the fourth quarter, total net charge-offs were $1.7 million, or 0.13% of average loans on an annualized basis, relatively consistent with the prior quarter results. The provision for loan losses was $1.8 million for the fourth quarter, as compared to $1.9 million for the prior quarter. Nonperforming loans increased slightly during the fourth quarter by $1.4 million to $27.5 million, and represent 0.55% of total loans at December 31, 2014, as compared to 0.53% of total loans at September 30, 2014. In addition, nonperforming assets were consistent with prior quarter levels at $38.9 million at the end of the fourth quarter, as compared to $38.6 million in the prior quarter. Delinquency as a percentage of loans was 0.80% at December 31, 2014, up seven basis points from the prior quarter.
The allowance for loan losses was $55.1 million at December 31, 2014, as compared to $55.0 million at September 30, 2014. The Company’s allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans was 1.11% at December 31, 2014 and September 30, 2014.

This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Operating earnings and operating EPS, which are non-GAAP financial measures, exclude gain or loss due to items that management believes are unrelated to its core banking business and will not have a material financial impact on operating results in future periods, such as gains or losses on the sales of securities, merger and acquisition expenses, and other items. The Company’s management uses operating earnings and operating EPS to measure the strength of the Company’s core banking business and to identify trends that may to some extent be obscured by such excluded gains or losses. The Company has included information on these non-GAAP measures because management believes that investors may find it useful to have access to the same analytical tool used by management and may also find that it facilitates the comparison of the Company to other companies in the financial services industry. These non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP. An item which management deems to be non-core and excludes when computing these non-GAAP measures can be of substantial importance to the Company’s results for any particular quarter or year. The Company’s non-GAAP performance measures, including operating earnings and operating EPS, are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may be presented by other companies.
