IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Evans Bancorp Reports Net Income of $1.8 million for the 2015 Fourth Quarter and $7.8 million for the Year
HAMBURG, NY, February 4, 2016 – Evans Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company” or “Evans”) (NYSE MKT: EVBN), a community financial services company serving Western New York since 1920, today reported its results of operations for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2015.
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE 2015 FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR
| · | | Annual net income of $7.8 million, or $1.82 per diluted share |
| · | | Net income for the fourth quarter was $1.8 million, or $0.41 per diluted share. |
| · | | Loans increased $78.3 million, or 11.3%, to $774.0 million from year-end 2014 |
| · | | Strong low-cost deposit growth drove total deposit balances to $803.0 million, up $95.3 million, or 13.5%, from the prior-year period |
| · | | Total assets were $939.1 million, up nearly 11% from the prior year |
Net income was $1.8 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2015, compared with
$2.3 million, or $0.54 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2014. The decline reflects a severance payment to the former chief financial officer and an increase in tax provision compared with a significant benefit in the fourth quarter 2014 from a tax credit. Return on average equity was 7.72% for the fourth quarter of 2015 compared with 10.79% in the fourth quarter of 2014.
For the full year 2015, Evans achieved net income of $7.8 million, or $1.82 per diluted share, down $0.4 million from $8.2 million, or $1.92 per diluted share, in the prior year. The return on average equity was 8.82% for 2015 compared with 9.84% for 2014.
“Our business has been growing at a brisk pace evidenced by double-digit increases in loans and core deposits for 2015,” said David J. Nasca, President and CEO of Evans Bank and its holding company. “Commercial loan growth was very robust in the last quarter, topping off a great year for business lending, which was up more than 14%. Total deposits also grew a healthy 14%, with strong demand deposit expansion, which is significant as it is our lowest cost funding source. However, net interest income for the year increased only modestly as revenues were muted by continued margin pressure experienced by the financial industry as a whole.”
Mr. Nasca added, “Earnings for fiscal year 2015, if adjusted for a non-recurring tax credit investment in 2014, were up slightly despite the expansion of our commercial lending team, increased compliance costs, and investments in technology, infrastructure and electronic distribution. These investments were made to better equip Evans to benefit from the solid economic growth occurring in Western New York and to capitalize on the opportunity that the pending merger of two large financial institutions in our market presents.”
Net Interest Income
Net interest income was $8.4 million in the fourth quarter, flat with the prior-year period, though up
$0.3 million, or 3.7%, from the trailing third quarter. Growth in loans and non-interest bearing demand deposits drove the increase over the trailing period.
Net interest margin of 3.91% declined 41 basis points, or 12 basis points on an adjusted basis, from the 2014 fourth quarter, reflecting decreases in the yield on loans. Excluding accelerated fee income
due to two commercial loan payoffs of $0.6 million, the adjusted 2014 fourth quarter net interest margin was 4.03%. When compared with 3.85% in the trailing third quarter, net interest margin was up 6 basis points, mostly due to interest earned on the payoff of a large investment security and loan portfolio growth.
The provision for loan losses was $204 thousand in the 2015 fourth quarter, down from $574 thousand in the prior-year period and $396 thousand in the trailing third quarter of 2015, as the overall credit quality of the Company’s loan portfolio remained strong.
Asset Quality
The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.66% at December 31, 2015 compared with 1.84% at September 30, 2015 and 1.80% at December 31, 2014. The ratio declined primarily due to the charge-off to the allowance of one loan previously identified as impaired.
The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans increased to 2.07% at December 31, 2015 from 1.52% at December 31, 2014, and from 1.12% at September 30, 2015. Non-performing loans increased in the fourth quarter of 2015 with the movement of two large commercial loan relationships to nonaccrual status.
Non-interest Income
Non-interest income was $2.9 million, or 25.7% of total revenue, in the quarter, up $2.6 million from the prior-year period. This increase reflects a $2.6 million loss from a tax credit investment recorded in the fourth quarter of 2014. The loss on the tax credit investment was offset by a corresponding tax reduction of $3.0 million, resulting in a net benefit of $0.4 million realized in the fourth quarter 2014. Insurance agency revenue of $1.6 million was up $0.1 million over the 2014 fourth quarter due to financial services and employee benefits revenue growth. Compared with the trailing third quarter of 2015, total non-interest income decreased by $1.3 million, primarily due to an insurance settlement gain of $0.7 million recorded in the third quarter and seasonal decreases in insurance revenue.
Non-interest Expense
Total non-interest expense was $8.7 million in the fourth quarter, an increase of 10.9%, or $0.8 million, from the prior-year period. Personnel expenses, the largest expense category for the Company, were up $0.6 million, or 12.0%, from last year’s fourth quarter, and reflect a $0.4 million severance payment and annual merit increases and strategic hires to support the Company’s continued growth. Other expenses increased $0.2 million, or 17%, driven by loan expenses on the growing commercial loan portfolio.
Compared with the trailing third quarter of 2015, total non-interest expense was up $0.4 million, or 4.6%. The increase reflects previously noted higher personnel expenses and a $0.2 million litigation reserve reversal that occurred in the third quarter.
Income tax expense for the quarter was $0.7 million, representing an effective tax rate of 29.5% compared with an effective tax rate of 32.2% in the fourth quarter of 2014, which excludes the $3.0 million tax credit benefit realized in 2014. The decrease in tax rate was primarily due to higher tax exempt income as a percentage of total income.
2015 Year-end Balance Sheet Highlights
Total assets were $939.1 million at December 31, 2015, up 10.9%, or $92.3 million, from year-end 2014 and 2.0%, or $18.2 million, higher than the end of the trailing 2015 third quarter. Loans of $774.0 million increased 11.3% from $695.7 million at December 31, 2014 and were up 5.8% from $731.2 million at September 30, 2015. The increase over both periods was primarily due to growth in the commercial real estate and commercial and industrial loan portfolios.
Investment securities were $101.5 million at December 31, 2015, up 1.5% from the end of 2014, but down 7.2% from the trailing 2015 third quarter.
Total deposits increased $95.3 million, or 13.5%, to $803.0 million at December 31, 2015 from
$707.6 million at the same time last year, and were up $20.7 million, or 2.6%, from the trailing 2015 third quarter-end. The year-over-year growth was mainly attributable to increases in demand deposits and savings accounts, which increased $24.5 million, or 15.4%, and $76.5 million, or 21.0%, respectively. In the first quarter of 2015, the Bank introduced a new money market account that has been successful in acquiring new customer deposit relationships and providing cross-sell opportunities.
2015 Year in Review
Net interest income for 2015 was $31.8 million, an increase of $0.7 million, or 2.3%, over 2014, primarily due to strong growth in the Company’s commercial loan portfolio and demand deposit balances. Net interest margin was 3.80% in 2015, a decrease of 21 basis points from 4.01% in 2014 mainly due to decreasing loan yields.
The Company’s provision for loan and lease losses remained flat at $1.2 million compared with 2014. Net charge-offs expressed as a percentage of average loans was 0.12% in 2015, increasing from 0.03% in 2014. The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans increased from 1.52% at the previous year-end to 2.07% at the end of 2015.
Non-interest income was $13.7 million, up $3.4 million from 2014 reflecting a $2.6 million loss on a tax credit investment that was recorded in 2014 and a $0.7 million gain from an insurance settlement in 2015.
Non-interest expense increased $1.4 million, or 4.6%, to $32.7 million in 2015. Included in 2014 was a $1.0 million litigation expense related to the New York Attorney General's allegations over the Bank’s residential mortgage lending practices. The increase in expense reflects higher salaries and employee benefits of $1.6 million, or 8.7%, due to merit increases, severance expenses, higher benefits costs and the addition of new employees as part of the Company’s planned growth strategy.
Income tax expense for the year was $3.8 million, representing an effective tax rate of 32.4% compared with an effective tax rate of 7.9% in 2014. The difference was driven by a $3.0 million tax credit benefit realized in 2014. Excluding the impact of the historic tax credit and the write-off of the tax credit investment recognized in non-interest income, the 2014 effective tax rate was 32.2%.
Capital Management
The Company consistently maintains regulatory capital ratios measurably above the Federal “well capitalized” standard, including a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 10.45% at December 31, 2015. Book value per share continued to grow and was $21.44 at December 31, 2015 compared with $21.16 at
September 30, 2015 and $20.41 at December 31, 2014. Tangible book value per share at
December 31, 2015 was $19.53, up 5.7% from the end of the fourth quarter of 2014 and 1.5% higher than the trailing third quarter of 2015.
2016 Outlook
Mr. Nasca commented, “Investing for organic growth has been the driving theme behind our strategy for the last five years. We have grown assets by nearly 40% in that timeframe and are poised to cross the important $1 billion in assets milestone in 2016. We will continue to make necessary investments to expand our commercial lending business throughout this year and will also incur the remaining costs for the implementation of our new core technology system. Even with expected loan growth, as we absorb these costs, we expect earnings in 2016 to be relatively consistent with 2015.
“2016 will see us advancing to the transformative growth phase of our strategy to take Evans’ business and financial performance to a higher level. Our strategic plan defines the path to strengthen earnings power, enhance profitability and measurably grow assets as we approach our 100-year anniversary in 2020. With expanded electronic distribution, a growing commercial business, and a successful community focused business model, combined with impending market disruption opportunities, we believe we can accelerate earnings growth beyond 2016.”
