Provident Financial Services, Inc. Announces Quarterly Earnings,
Fifth Stock Repurchase Program and Declares Quarterly Cash Dividend
JERSEY CITY, NJ, July 27, 2006 - Provident Financial Services, Inc. (NYSE:PFS)
(the "Company") reported basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.22 for the
quarter ended June 30, 2006, representing increases of 5.5% and 5.4%,
respectively, compared to basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.21 and
$0.20, respectively, for the quarter ended June 30, 2005. Basic and diluted
earnings per share were $0.44 and $0.43, respectively, for the six months ended
June 30, 2006, representing increases of 2.0% and 1.9%, respectively, compared
to basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.43 and $0.42, respectively, for
the six months ended June 30, 2005. Net income for the three months ended June
30, 2006 totaled $13.5 million, a decrease of $251,000, or 1.8%, compared to
$13.8 million reported for the same period in 2005. Net income was $27.3 million
for the six months ended June 30, 2006, a decrease of $1.5 million, or 5.1%,
compared to $28.8 million for the same period in 2005. The earnings and per
share data for 2005 were impacted by the acceptance of a Voluntary Resignation
Initiative ("VRI") by certain officers of the Company, which resulted in an
after-tax charge of $815,000, or $0.01 per share.
Paul M. Pantozzi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "This past
quarter our net interest margin expanded, both loan and deposit balances grew
and we continued to reduce overhead costs. In light of the ever-more-challenging
interest rate and competitive environments, we believe that this progress, while
moderate in each category, is significant." Pantozzi added, "The Federal Reserve
has remained steadfast in its policy of raising short-term rates, resulting in
an inverted yield curve. Our response has been to continue to de-leverage our
balance sheet to preserve our net interest margin and manage non-interest
expenses to enhance efficiency."
Authorization of Fifth Stock Repurchase Program
The Company's Board of Directors authorized the Company's fifth stock repurchase
program. This program will commence upon completion of the Company's current
repurchase program, under which 1.6 million shares remain to be purchased. Under
the new authorization, the Company may repurchase 5% of the amount of shares of
common stock currently outstanding, or approximately 3.3 million shares.
Repurchases will be made from time to time and will be effectuated through open
market purchases, unsolicited negotiated transactions, or in such other manner
deemed appropriate by management. Completion of the repurchase program will not
be limited to a specific time period. The Company's repurchase activities will
take into account SEC safe harbor rules and guidance for issuer repurchases.
Declaration of Quarterly Dividend
The Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per
common share payable on August 31, 2006, to stockholders of record as of the
close of business on August 15, 2006.
Balance Sheet Summary
Total assets were $5.86 billion at June 30, 2006, compared to $6.05 billion at
December 31, 2005, as reductions in cash and securities balances were used to
fund repayments of borrowings and common stock repurchases.
Total investments decreased $210.5 million, or 13.7%, during the six months
ended June 30, 2006. The decrease was primarily attributable to paydowns on
mortgage-backed securities and maturities of debt securities. In addition, the
Company sold $37.0 million of primarily mortgage-backed securities during the
second quarter as part of its ongoing interest rate risk management process.
The Company's net loans increased $32.5 million, or 0.9%, to $3.74 billion at
June 30, 2006, from $3.71 billion at December 31, 2005, driven by loan
originations of $651.4 million and loan purchases of $41.0 million. Net
increases of $65.4 million in commercial and multi-family mortgage loans, $26.7
million in commercial loans and $28.1 million in consumer loans were partially
offset by decreases of $68.0 million in residential mortgage loans and $19.0
million in construction loans. Commercial real estate, construction and
commercial loans represented 39.1% of the loan portfolio at June 30, 2006,
compared to 38.0% at March 31, 2006 and 37.5% at December 31, 2005.
At June 30, 2006, the Company's unfunded loan pipeline totaled $791.3 million,
including $293.0 million in construction loan commitments, $198.0 million in
commercial loan commitments and $98.2 million in commercial mortgage
commitments. This compares with an unfunded loan pipeline of $769.2 million at
March 31, 2006.
1
Borrowed funds decreased $147.8 million, or 15.2%, during the six months ended
June 30, 2006, as a result of maturities, calls and paydowns on amortizing
obligations.
Total deposits increased $10.9 million, or 0.3%, during the six months ended
June 30, 2006. Total deposits were $3.93 billion at June 30, 2006, with core
deposits, consisting of savings and demand deposit accounts, representing 60.8%
of total deposits.
Common stock repurchases for the three and six months ended June 30, 2006,
totaled 2.9 million shares at an average cost of $18.10 per share and 3.8
million shares at an average cost of $18.16 per share, respectively. At June 30,
2006, book value per share and tangible book value per share were $15.76 and
$9.11, respectively.
Results of Operations
Net Interest Margin
The net interest margin improved two basis points to 3.33% for the quarter ended
June 30, 2006, from 3.31% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. The net interest
margin for the quarter ended June 30, 2006 decreased one basis point compared
with the net interest margin of 3.34% for the quarter ended June 30, 2005. The
weighted average rate for interest-earning assets was 5.52% for the three months
ended June 30, 2006, compared with 5.35% for the trailing quarter and 5.01% for
the three months ended June 30, 2005. The weighted average rate for
interest-bearing liabilities was 2.61% for the quarter ended June 30, 2006,
compared with 2.43% for the trailing quarter and 1.97% for the second quarter of
2005.
For the six months ended June 30, 2006, the net interest margin was 3.33%. This
was a decrease of three basis points compared with the net interest margin of
3.36% for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The weighted average rate for
interest-earning assets was 5.45% for the six months ended June 30, 2006,
compared with 4.99% for the six months ended June 30, 2005. The weighted average
rate for interest-bearing liabilities was 2.52% for the six months ended June
30, 2005, compared with 1.93% for the same period in 2005. The higher rates on
interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities reflect the increases
in market interest rates experienced throughout the past year.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income totaled $7.3 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, a
decrease of $268,000, or 3.5%, compared to the same period in 2005. Decreases in
net gains on securities sales of $1.2 million and fee income of $460,000 were
partially offset by a $1.4 million increase in other income for the quarter
ended June 30, 2006, compared with the same period in 2005. During the second
quarter of 2006, the Company sold $35.3 million in lower-yielding
mortgage-backed securities, resulting in a loss of $1.6 million. The proceeds
were used to repay borrowings as the Company continued its near-term efforts to
de-leverage the balance sheet and protect the net interest margin. The decrease
in fee income was primarily attributable to a $429,000 reduction in commercial
loan prepayment fee income compared with the same period in 2005. The increase
in other income was primarily attributable to gains recognized on the call of
FHLB advances resulting from the accelerated accretion of related purchase
accounting adjustments.
For the six months ended June 30, 2006, non-interest income totaled $14.6
million, an increase of $895,000, or 6.5%, compared to the same period in 2005.
Increases in other income of $1.3 million and fee income of $655,000 were
partially offset by a reduction in securities gains of $1.1 million. The
increase in other income was primarily attributable to gains recognized on the
call of FHLB advances. The increase in fee income was primarily attributable to
deposit fees, equity fund fees and fees related to the outsourcing of the
official check function. The decrease in gains on securities sales was due to
losses recorded on the sales of mortgage-backed securities during the quarter
ended June 30, 2006.
Non-Interest Expense
For the three months ended June 30, 2006, non-interest expense decreased $3.3
million, or 9.9%, to $29.9 million, compared to $33.2 million for the three
months ended June 30, 2005. Compensation and employee benefits expense decreased
$1.8 million, primarily due to a $1.4 million expense recognized in the second
quarter of 2005 in connection with the VRI. Other non-interest expense decreased
$336,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, compared with the same period in
2005, as a result of reductions in printing and supplies expense, consultant
fees, insurance, and telephone expense. Net occupancy expense decreased $326,000
for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, compared with the same period in 2005,
primarily as a result of reductions in software and equipment maintenance costs
and utilities expense. Amortization of intangibles decreased $288,000 for the
quarter ended June 30, 2006, compared with the same period in 2005, as a result
of scheduled reductions in core deposit intangible amortization and a reduction
2
in mortgage servicing rights amortization resulting from slower principal
repayments. Advertising expense decreased $249,000 for the quarter ended June
30, 2006, compared with the same period in 2005, due to the timing of marketing
initiatives. Data processing expense decreased $238,000 for the quarter ended
June 30, 2006, compared with the same period in 2005, primarily due to the
outsourcing of items processing in the fourth quarter of 2005.
For the six months ended June 30, 2006, non-interest expense decreased $4.5
million, or 6.9%, to $60.1 million, compared to $64.6 million for the same
period in 2005. Compensation and employee benefits expense decreased $2.5
million for the six months ended June 30, 2006, compared with the same period in
2005, as a result of reductions in staff and the expense recorded in the second
quarter of 2005 in connection with the VRI. The Company employed 893 full-time
equivalent employees at June 30, 2006, compared to 912 full-time equivalent
employees at June 30, 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, benefits
expense decreased $670,000 due primarily to reductions in employee health
insurance costs, and stock-based compensation decreased $186,000 compared with
the same period in 2005. Amortization of intangibles decreased $848,000 for the
six months ended June 30, 2006, compared with the same period in 2005, as a
result of scheduled reductions in the amortization of core deposit intangibles.
Net occupancy expense decreased $411,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006,
compared with the same period in 2005, primarily as a result of reductions in
software and equipment maintenance costs and utilities expense. Data processing
expense decreased $474,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2006, compared with
the same period in 2005, primarily due to the outsourcing of items processing in
the fourth quarter of 2005.
The Company's annualized non-interest expense as a percentage of average assets
improved to 2.04% for the quarter ended June 30, 2006, compared with 2.12% for
the same period in 2005. For the six months ended June 30, 2006, non-interest
expense as a percentage of average assets was 2.05%, compared with 2.07% for the
same period in 2005. The efficiency ratio (non-interest expense divided by the
sum of net interest income and non-interest income) was 59.91% for the quarter
ended June 30, 2006, compared with 62.08% for the same period in 2005. For the
six months ended June 30, 2006, the efficiency ratio was 59.73%, compared with
60.46% for the same period in 2005.
Asset Quality
The Company continues to emphasize asset quality. Total non-performing loans at
June 30, 2006 were $5.7 million, or 0.15% of total loans, compared to $6.0
million, or 0.16% of total loans at December 31, 2005, and $7.3 million, or
0.20% of total loans at June 30, 2005. At June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005,
the Company's allowance for loan losses was 0.86% of total loans, compared with
0.91% of total loans at June 30, 2005. The Company recorded provisions for loan
losses of $565,000 and $1.1 million for the three and six months ended June 30,
2006, respectively, compared with provisions of $400,000 for both the three and
six months ended June 30, 2005. For the three and six months ended June 30,
2006, net charge-offs totaled $214,000 and $845,000, respectively, compared with
net charge-offs of $884,000 and $813,000 for the same periods in 2005. The
increase in the loan loss provision for the three and six months ended June 30,
2006, compared with the same periods in 2005, was attributable to loan growth as
well as a shift in the composition of the loan portfolio from retail to
commercial loans.
