FIRST CITIZENS REPORTS EARNINGS FOR FOURTH QUARTER 2015
RALEIGH, N.C. -- First Citizens BancShares Inc. (BancShares) (Nasdaq: FCNCA) reports earnings for the quarter ended December 31, 2015, of $42.7 million, compared to $56.0 million for the third quarter of 2015, and $62.9 million for the corresponding period of 2014, according to Frank B. Holding, Jr., chairman of the board.
Per share income was $3.56 for the fourth quarter of 2015, $4.66 for the third quarter of 2015 and $5.24 for the same period a year ago. BancShares' current quarter results generated an annualized return on average assets of 0.53 percent and an annualized return on average equity of 5.92 percent, compared to respective returns of 0.71 percent and 7.86 percent for the third quarter of 2015 and 0.82 percent and 9.20 percent for the same period of 2014.
For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014, net income was $210.4 million, or $17.52 per share, and $138.6 million, or $13.56 per share, respectively. Returns on average assets and average equity were 0.68 percent and 7.52 percent during 2015, compared to 0.57 percent and 6.14 percent during 2014. When comparing net income for the year ended December 31, 2015, to the prior year, the increases were primarily driven by the impacts of the October 1, 2014, First Citizens Bancorporation, Inc. (Bancorporation) merger and the $42.9 million gain on the FDIC-assisted acquisition of Capitol City Bank & Trust (CCBT) of Atlanta, Ga., which occurred February 13, 2015. The impacts of the acquisitions are reflected in Bancshares’ financial results from the respective acquisition dates.
FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
| • | Loan growth was strong in 2015 as net balances increased by $384.2 million during the fourth quarter and $1.47 billion for the year primarily as a result of originated portfolio growth. |
| • | Deposit growth continued, up $211.4 million and $1.25 billion from September 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014, respectively, primarily due to organic growth in low-cost demand accounts. |
| • | The taxable-equivalent net interest margin was 3.12 percent in the fourth quarter of 2015, an increase of 3 basis points from the same quarter in the prior year due to originated loan growth, improvement in investment yields and lower funding costs, partially offset by continued purchased credit impaired (PCI) loan portfolio runoff. |
| • | BancShares remained well capitalized under Basel III capital requirements with a leverage capital ratio of 8.96 percent, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 12.65 percent, common equity Tier 1 ratio of 12.51 percent and total risk-based capital ratio of 14.03 percent at December 31, 2015. |
LOANS AND DEPOSITS
Loans at December 31, 2015, were $20.24 billion, a net increase of $384.2 million, or by 1.9 percent, during the fourth quarter. Originated loan growth was $477.7 million, primarily the result of continued growth in the commercial portfolio. PCI loans decreased by $93.5 million.
Loan balances increased by a net $1.47 billion, or 7.8 percent, since December 31, 2014. Growth was primarily driven by $1.71 billion of organic growth in the non-PCI portfolio. The PCI portfolio declined over this period by $236.0 million, reflecting continued loan runoff of $373.6 million, offset by net loans acquired from CCBT which totaled $137.6 million at December 31, 2015.
At December 31, 2015, deposits were $26.93 billion, an increase of $211.4 million, or by 0.8 percent, since September 30, 2015. The increase during the quarter was due to organic growth primarily in low-cost demand deposit accounts and checking with interest accounts, offset by runoff in time deposits. Deposits increased by $1.25
billion, or by 4.9 percent, since December 31, 2014, primarily due to organic growth in demand, checking with interest and savings accounts, offset by runoff in time deposits.
ALLOWANCE AND PROVISION FOR LOAN AND LEASE LOSSES
The allowance for loan and lease losses was $206.2 million at December 31, 2015, representing increases of $753 thousand and $1.8 million since September 30, 2015, and December 31, 2014, respectively. The allowance as a percentage of total loans at December 31, 2015, was 1.02 percent, compared to 1.03 percent and 1.09 percent at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014. The decline in the allowance ratio at December 31, 2015, from both periods was due primarily to continued credit quality improvement.
BancShares recorded net provision expense of $7.0 million for loan and leases losses during the fourth quarter of 2015, and $107 thousand and $8.3 million for the third quarter of 2015 and fourth quarter of 2014, respectively. The $6.9 million increase in provision expense compared to the third quarter of 2015 was primarily due to a $4.1 million reversal of previously recorded specific reserves on impaired non-PCI loans in the prior quarter, loan growth and higher net charge-offs in the current quarter. This increase was offset by lower provision expense on PCI loans. The $1.3 million decline in net provision expense from the fourth quarter of 2014 was primarily due to improved credit quality in the loan portfolio, offset by higher net charge-offs and a lower net provision credit on PCI loans.
Non-PCI loan net provision expense was $7.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2015, compared to a net provision credit of $2.7 million and net provision expense of $10.9 million for the third quarter of 2015 and fourth quarter of 2014, respectively. The net provision expense in the current quarter primarily resulted from commercial loan growth and higher net charge-offs. The third quarter of 2015 net provision credit included a $4.1 million release of impaired loan reserves as refinements were made to discounted cash flow assumptions.
The PCI loan portfolio net provision credit was $0.9 million during the fourth quarter of 2015, compared to net provision expense of $2.8 million and net provision credit of $2.6 million during the third quarter of 2015 and fourth quarter of 2014, respectively. The net provision expense in the third quarter of 2015 was primarily due to a $3.9 million reclassification impacting accretion income and provision expense, which had no net impact on earnings. The lower net provision credit compared to the fourth quarter of 2014 was attributable to the continued decline in this portfolio.
NONPERFORMING ASSETS
At December 31, 2015, BancShares’ nonperforming assets, including nonaccrual loans and other real estate owned (OREO) were $169.0 million, up from $162.5 million at September 30, 2015. The $6.5 million, or 4.0 percent, increase was due to $10.8 million higher nonaccrual loans with increases primarily in commercial and residential mortgage loans. This increase was offset by a $4.3 million decline in OREO balances to $65.6 million, primarily due to problem asset resolutions. Nonperforming assets declined $1.9 million from $170.9 million at December 31, 2014.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income decreased $8.7 million, or by 3.6 percent, from the third quarter of 2015, resulting primarily from lower accretion income in the PCI loan portfolio. The prior quarter had higher loan prepayments and a $3.9 million reclassification adjustment. Conversely, net interest income increased $13.5 million, or by 6.2 percent, to $230.7 million from the fourth quarter of 2014. Loan interest income was up $5.6 million as a result of higher interest income from originated loan growth, investment securities interest income improved by $3.8 million as matured cash flows were reinvested into higher yielding investments and interest expense declined by $3.7 million due to reduced borrowing and deposit funding costs.
The taxable-equivalent net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2015 was 3.12 percent, a decline of 17 basis points from the third quarter of 2015, resulting from lower loan prepayments in the PCI loan portfolio and a $3.9 million reclassification adjustment. The taxable-equivalent net interest margin increased by 3 basis points from the same quarter in the prior year. The margin improvement was due to continued originated loan growth, improvement
in investment yields and lower borrowing and deposit funding rates, partially offset by continued PCI loan portfolio runoff.
NONINTEREST INCOME
Noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $99.1 million, down $10.6 million from the prior quarter. The decrease was due to $5.6 million of securities gains recognized in the third quarter of 2015, higher adjustments to the FDIC receivable of $5.1 million, a $4.0 million decline in wealth management income and lower mortgage income of $1.7 million. These decreases were partially offset by a $5.3 million increase in recoveries of PCI loans previously charged-off.
Noninterest income decreased by $36.6 million from the fourth quarter of 2014 primarily driven by the recognition of a $29.1 million gain recorded in 2014 on Bancorporation shares of stock owned by BancShares that were canceled on the merger date. Additionally, the decrease was due to higher adjustments to the FDIC receivable of $9.2 million, partially offset by a $4.3 million increase in recoveries of PCI loans previously charged-off.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Noninterest expense decreased by $4.3 million to $255.9 million in comparison to the third quarter of 2015, due primarily to a $3.6 million reduction in salaries and wages expense and lower foreclosure-related expenses of $3.1 million, offset by a $2.5 million increase in occupancy expenses. The decline in salaries and wages was primarily due to a reduction in costs following the conversion of Bancorporation systems in the third quarter of 2015. The prior quarter included a $2.5 million depreciation adjustment resulting from the conversion of Bancorporation systems.
Noninterest expense decreased by $1.3 million from the same quarter last year primarily as a result of declines of $5.6 million and $2.8 million in foreclosure-related and merger-related expenses, respectively. The decline was partially offset by a $6.7 million increase in employee benefits due primarily to higher pension and healthcare costs.
INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense was $24.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2015, down from $32.9 million and $24.5 million for the third quarter of 2015 and fourth quarter of 2014, representing effective tax rates of 36.1 percent, 37.0 percent and 28.1 percent during the respective periods. The lower effective tax rate during the fourth quarter of 2014 results primarily from the impact of the tax benefit of the Bancorporation shares of stock owned by BancShares at the date of acquisition.

(1) Loans and leases are evaluated at acquisition and where a discount is noted at least in part due to credit quality, the loans are accounted for under the guidance in ASC Topic 310-30, Loans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality. Loans for which it is probable at acquisition that all required payments will not be collected in accordance with the contractual terms are considered purchased credit-impaired (PCI) loans. PCI loans and leases are recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition. No allowance for loan and lease losses is recorded on the acquisition date as the fair value of the acquired assets incorporates assumptions regarding credit risk.
