Meridian Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company” or “Meridian”) (NASDAQ:
EBSB), the holding company for East Boston Savings Bank (the
“Bank”), announced net income of $17.4 million, or $0.33 per
diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, up
from $14.1 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, for the quarter
ended June 30, 2018 and $13.3 million, or $0.25 per diluted
share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2017. For the nine
months ended September 30, 2018, net income was $43.4 million,
or $0.82 per diluted share, up from $33.9 million, or $0.65 per
diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
Net income for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018
reflects a reduction in the statutory federal income tax rate to
21% from 35% effective January 1, 2018 related to enactment of the
Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) in December 2017. The
Company’s return on average assets was 1.22% for the quarter ended
September 30, 2018, up from 1.01% for the quarter ended
June 30, 2018 and 1.10% for the quarter ended
September 30, 2017. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2018, the Company’s return on average assets was
1.05%, up from 0.97% for the nine months ended September 30,
2017. The Company’s return on average equity was 10.28% for the
quarter ended September 30, 2018, up from 8.50% for the
quarter ended June 30, 2018 and 8.40% for the quarter ended
September 30, 2017. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2018, the Company’s return on average equity was
8.72%, up from 7.25% for the nine months ended September 30,
2017.
Richard J. Gavegnano, Chairman, President and
Chief Executive Officer, said, “I am pleased to report record net
income of $17.4 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, for the third
quarter of 2018, and $43.4 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, for
the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Our net income rose 23%
from the second quarter of 2018, 30% from the third quarter of 2017
and 28% for the first nine months of 2018 from the same period last
year. We are also gratified by the increases in our returns on
average assets and average equity, which were 1.22% and 10.28% for
the third quarter and 1.05% and 8.72% for the first nine months of
2018. On a pre-tax basis, our income would have increased 15% from
the second quarter of 2018, 10% from the third quarter of 2017 and
14% from the first nine months of 2017 if changes in the fair value
of marketable equity securities recognized in 2018 and gains on
sale of securities for these periods as reported in non-interest
income were excluded.”
Mr. Gavegnano added, “Our earnings continue to
be driven by growth in net interest income and strong asset quality
as enhanced this year by income tax expense reductions resulting
from the Tax Act’s lower federal income tax rate. In recognition of
our rising earnings trends, the Board of Directors intends to
declare an increase in our quarterly dividend by $0.02 per share,
or 40%, to $0.07 per share in the fourth quarter.”
The Company’s net interest income was $41.4
million for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, up $320,000
or 0.8%, from the quarter ended June 30, 2018 and $3.3
million, or 8.7%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2017.
The interest rate spread and net interest margin on a
tax-equivalent basis were 2.70% and 2.99%, respectively, for the
quarter ended September 30, 2018 compared to 2.81% and 3.07%,
respectively, for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 and 3.08%
and 3.30%, respectively, for the quarter ended September 30,
2017. For the nine months ended September 30, 2018, net
interest income increased $15.4 million, or 14.4%, to $122.3
million from the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
The net interest rate spread and net interest margin on a
tax-equivalent basis were 2.81% and 3.07%, respectively, for the
nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to 3.03% and
3.25%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30,
2017. The increases in net interest income were primarily due to
growth in average loan balances, partially offset by increases in
the average balances of total deposits and borrowings and the cost
of funds for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2018
compared to the respective prior periods. The interest rate spread
and net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis for the quarter
and nine months ended September 30, 2018 reflect the reduction in
the federal income tax rate to 21% from 35%.
Total interest and dividend income increased to
$58.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, up
$2.3 million, or 4.1%, from the quarter ended June 30, 2018
and $10.1 million, or 21.1%, from the quarter ended
September 30, 2017, primarily due to growth in the Company’s
average loan balances to $5.214 billion, partially offset by
declines in the yield on loans to 4.30% on a tax-equivalent basis,
reflecting reductions in prepayment fees of $313,000 compared to
the second quarter of 2018 and $440,000 compared to the third
quarter of 2017. The Company’s yield on interest-earning assets on
a tax-equivalent basis was 4.18% for the quarter ended
September 30, 2018, up two basis points from the quarter ended
June 30, 2018 and up five basis points from the quarter ended
September 30, 2017. For the nine months ended September
30, 2018, the Company’s total interest and dividend income
increased $31.7 million, or 23.6%, to $166.0 million from the nine
months ended September 30, 2017 primarily due to growth in the
average loan balances of $816.7 million, or 19.5%, to $5.013
billion, and by an increase in the yield on loans on a
tax-equivalent basis of four basis points to 4.31% for the nine
months ended September 30, 2018 compared to the nine months
ended September 30, 2017. The Company’s yield on
interest-earning assets on a tax-equivalent basis increased 10
basis points to 4.15% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018
compared to the same period in 2017. The yields on loans and
interest-earning assets on a tax-equivalent basis for the quarter
and nine months ended September 30, 2018 also reflect the reduction
in the federal income tax rate to 21% from 35%.
Total interest expense increased to $16.7
million for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, up $1.9
million, or 13.2%, from the quarter ended June 30, 2018 and
$6.8 million, or 68.9%, from the quarter ended September 30,
2017. Interest expense on deposits increased to $14.3 million for
the quarter ended September 30, 2018, up $1.5 million, or
12.0%, from the quarter ended June 30, 2018 and $5.8 million,
or 67.5%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2017 primarily
due to growth in average total deposits to $4.385 billion and
increases in the cost of average total deposits to 1.29% from 1.19%
for the quarter ended June 30, 2018, and 0.91% for the quarter
ended September 30, 2017. Interest expense on borrowings
increased to $2.5 million for the quarter ended September 30,
2018, up $414,000, or 20.2%, from the quarter ended June 30,
2018 and $1.1 million, or 77.4%, from the quarter ended
September 30, 2017 primarily due to growth in average total
borrowings to $612.2 million. The Company’s total cost of funds was
1.33% for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, up 11 basis
points from the quarter ended June 30, 2018 and 39 basis
points from the quarter ended September 30, 2017. Total
interest expense increased $16.3 million, or 59.7%, to $43.7
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from the
nine months ended September 30, 2017. Interest expense on
deposits increased $13.7 million, or 57.2%, to $37.5 million for
the nine months ended September 30, 2018 from the nine months
ended September 30, 2017 due to the growth in average total
deposits of $617.6 million, or 17.0%, to $4.261 billion and an
increase in the cost of average total deposits of 30 basis points
to 1.18%. Interest expense on borrowings increased $2.7 million, or
76.5%, to $6.2 million for the nine months ended September 30,
2018 from the nine months ended September 30, 2017 due to the
growth in average total borrowings of $189.7 million, or 49.2%, to
$575.4 million and an increase in the cost of average total
borrowings of 22 basis points to 1.43%. The Company’s cost of funds
increased 30 basis points to 1.21% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2018 compared to the nine months ended
September 30, 2017.
Mr. Gavegnano noted, “Our earnings continue to
be driven by the robust loan growth. Our net loan growth was $111
million, or 2%, for the third quarter of 2018, $603 million, or
13%, for the first nine months of 2018, and $724 million, or 16%,
since September 30, 2017. Our yield on loans was 4.30% for the
third quarter and 4.31% for the first nine months of 2018, while
our net interest margin was 2.99% for the third quarter and 3.07%
for the first nine months of 2018, reflecting increases in our cost
of funds in the current market interest rate environment. However,
without the tax rate change under the Tax Act, our yields on loans
and the net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis would have
been five basis points higher than reported for 2018 periods.
Although third quarter loan growth was lower than the preceding
quarters this year due to the timing of loan closings, we expect
loan growth to be strong in the fourth quarter based on our current
pipeline.”
The Company's provision for loan losses was
$226,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2018, down $1.6
million from the quarter ended June 30, 2018 and down $2.2
million from the quarter ended September 30, 2017. The
allowance for loan losses was $49.6 million or 0.94% of total loans
at September 30, 2018, compared to $49.4 million or 0.96% of
total loans at June 30, 2018, $45.2 million or 0.97% of total
loans at December 31, 2017, and $45.6 million or 1.00% of
total loans at September 30, 2017. The changes in the
provision and the allowance for loan losses were based on
management’s assessment of loan portfolio growth and composition
changes, declines in historical charge-off trends, reduced levels
of problem loans and other improvements in asset quality trends.
Such changes reflected the conversion of construction loans to
permanent status in the commercial real estate and commercial and
industrial loan portfolios totaling $90.3 million in the quarter
ended September 30, 2018 and $312.2 million in the nine months
ended September 30, 2018.
Net charge-offs totaled $18,000 for the quarter
ended September 30, 2018 compared to net recoveries of $43,000
for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 and net charge-offs of
$44,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2017. For the nine
months ended September 30, 2018, net recoveries totaled
$139,000, compared to net charge-offs of $80,000 for the nine
months ended September 30, 2017.
Non-accrual loans were $8.0 million, or 0.15% of
total loans outstanding, at September 30, 2018; up $101,000,
or 1.3%, from June 30, 2018; down $357,000, or 4.3%, from
December 31, 2017; and down $1.2 million, or 12.8%, from
September 30, 2017. Non-performing assets were $8.0 million,
or 0.14% of total assets, at September 30, 2018, compared to
$7.9 million, or 0.14% of total assets, at June 30, 2018, $8.4
million, or 0.16% of total assets at December 31, 2017, and
$10.9 million, or 0.21% of total assets, at September 30,
2017.
Non-interest income was $3.7 million for the
quarter ended September 30, 2018, up from $2.9 million for the
quarter ended June 30, 2018 and down from $5.3 million for the
quarter ended September 30, 2017. Non-interest income
increased $819,000, or 28.7%, compared to the quarter ended
June 30, 2018, primarily due to increases of $459,000 in loan
fees and $393,000 in the gain on equity securities, net. Compared
to the quarter ended September 30, 2017, non-interest income
decreased $1.6 million, or 30.0%, primarily due to decreases of
$1.7 million in gain on life insurance distribution related to a
bank-owned life insurance claim recognized during the third quarter
of 2017 and $865,000 in gain on sales of securities available for
sale, net, partially offset by increases of $781,000 in gain on
equity securities, net and $161,000 in customer service fees. For
the nine months ended September 30, 2018, non-interest income
decreased $5.5 million, or 38.2%, to $8.9 million from $14.4
million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017,
primarily due to decreases of $3.2 million in gain on sales of
securities available for sale, net, $1.7 million in gain on life
insurance distribution and $1.4 million in loan fees due to $1.3
million of loan swap fee income recognized in the second quarter of
2017, partially offset by increases of $632,000 in gain on equity
securities, net and $347,000 in customer service fees.
Non-interest expenses were $23.0 million, or
1.61% of average assets for the quarter ended September 30,
2018, compared to $23.5 million, or 1.69% of average assets for the
quarter ended June 30, 2018 and $20.8 million, or 1.71% of
average assets for the quarter ended September 30, 2017.
Non-interest expenses decreased $458,000, or 2.0%, compared to the
quarter ended June 30, 2018, due primarily to decreases of $317,000
in professional services and $174,000 in marketing and advertising.
Non-interest expenses increased $2.2 million, or 10.5%, compared to
the quarter ended September 30, 2017, due primarily to
increases of $1.4 million in salaries and employee benefits,
$305,000 in occupancy and equipment, $219,000 in data processing,
$191,000 in deposit insurance and $134,000 in other general and
administrative expenses, partially offset by a decrease of $245,000
in merger and acquisition expenses. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2018, non-interest expenses increased $7.1
million, or 11.0%, to $71.2 million from $64.1 million for the nine
months ended September 30, 2017, due to increases of $4.8
million in salaries and employee benefits, $810,000 in occupancy
and equipment expenses, $702,000 in data processing expenses,
$560,000 in other general and administrative expenses, and $283,000
in marketing and advertising expenses, partially offset by a
$217,000 decrease in professional services. The increases in
salaries and employee benefits expenses reflect annual increases in
employee compensation and health benefits during the first quarter
of 2018. In addition, the increases in salaries and employee
benefits, and occupancy and equipment expenses and data processing
include costs associated with the expansion of our branch and
support staff, including two branches acquired from Meetinghouse
Bank on December 29, 2017, one new branch opened in the first
quarter of 2018, another new branch opened in October 2018, and two
new branch openings planned for later in 2018. Other general and
administrative expenses reflect core deposit intangible
amortization of $147,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2018
and $442,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The
Company’s efficiency ratio was 51.92% for the quarter ended
September 30, 2018 compared to 53.89% for the quarter ended
June 30, 2018 and 48.40% for the quarter ended
September 30, 2017. For the nine months ended
September 30, 2018, the efficiency ratio was 54.44% compared
to 54.10% for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
Mr. Gavegnano added, “Our efficiency ratio
improved to 51.92% for the third quarter of 2018 from 53.89% for
the second quarter of 2018 reflecting the rise in our net interest
income and declines in non-interest expenses. We remain committed
to prudent investment in branch network expansion as an important
element of our goals for organic growth and financial
performance. We opened our 35th full-service branch in
Boston’s Brigham Circle as we prepare for the opening of two new
branches in Burlington and Lynnfield later in the fourth quarter
and evaluate several additional locations in the Boston
metropolitan area.”
The Company recorded a provision for income
taxes of $4.5 million for the quarter ended September 30,
2018, reflecting an effective tax rate of 20.4%, compared to $4.5
million, or an effective tax rate of 24.3%, for the quarter ended
June 30, 2018, and $6.7 million, or an effective tax rate of
33.5%, for the quarter ended September 30, 2017. For the nine
months ended September 30, 2018, the provision for income
taxes was $12.3 million, reflecting an effective tax rate of 22.0%,
compared to $17.6 million, or an effective tax rate of 34.2%, for
the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The reductions in
the provision for income taxes and the effective tax rate for 2018
primarily reflect the decrease in the statutory federal income tax
rate to 21% from 35% effective January 1, 2018 as a result of the
Tax Act.
Total assets were $5.775 billion at
September 30, 2018, up $97.7 million, or 1.7%, from $5.678
billion at June 30, 2018 and $475.9 million, or 9.0%, from
$5.299 billion at December 31, 2017. Net loans were
$5.226 billion at September 30, 2018, up $111.0 million, or
2.2%, from June 30, 2018, and up $603.1 million, or 13.0%,
from December 31, 2017. Loan originations totaled $271.7
million during the quarter ended September 30, 2018 and $1.114
billion during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. The
net increase in loans for the nine months ended September 30,
2018 was primarily due to increases of $374.4 million in commercial
real estate loans, $190.0 million in multi-family loans, $59.6
million in commercial and industrial loans, and $32.7 million in
one- to four-family loans. Cash and due from banks was $313.7
million at September 30, 2018, a decrease of $89.0 million, or
22.1% from December 31, 2017. Securities, at fair value,
were $33.6 million at September 30, 2018, a decrease of $4.7
million, or 12.3%, from $38.4 million at December 31,
2017.
Total deposits were $4.411 billion at
September 30, 2018, an increase of $21.7 million, or 0.5%,
from $4.390 billion at June 30, 2018 and an increase of $303.4
million, or 7.4%, from $4.108 billion at December 31,
2017. Core deposits, which exclude certificates of deposit,
increased $77.3 million, or 2.8%, during the nine months ended
September 30, 2018 to $2.815 billion, or 63.8% of total
deposits. Total borrowings were $650.8 million, up $59.1 million,
or 10.0%, from June 30, 2018 and up $137.3 million, or 26.7%,
from December 31, 2017.
Total stockholders’ equity increased $14.5
million, or 2.2%, to $679.1 million at September 30, 2018 from
$664.7 million at June 30, 2018, and $32.7 million, or 5.1%,
from $646.4 million at December 31, 2017. The increase for the
nine months ended September 30, 2018 was primarily due to net
income of $43.4 million and $3.3 million related to stock-based
compensation plans, partially offset by the repurchase of 314,010
shares of the Company’s common stock related to the stock
repurchase program at a total cost of $6.1 million, dividends of
$0.15 per share totaling $7.7 million, and the surrender of 117,313
shares of the Company’s stock related to the tax withholdings
resulting from stock option exercises at a total cost of $2.0
million during the third quarter of 2018. Stock options exercised
by the Company’s employees and directors totaled 544,869 during the
third quarter of 2018 and 762,332 shares during the nine months
ended September 30, 2018, including 706,610 shares from stock
options granted in 2008 and exercised prior to expiration on
October 13, 2018. Stockholders’ equity to assets was 11.76% at
September 30, 2018, compared to 11.71% at June 30, 2018
and 12.20% at December 31, 2017. Book value per share
increased to $12.52 at September 30, 2018 from $11.96 at
December 31, 2017. Tangible book value per share increased to
$12.11 at September 30, 2018 from $11.54 at December 31,
2017. Market price per share decreased $3.60, or 17.5%, to $17.00
at September 30, 2018 from $20.60 at December 31, 2017.
At September 30, 2018, the Company and the Bank continued to
exceed all regulatory capital requirements.
As of September 30, 2018, the Company had
repurchased 2,373,621 shares of its stock at an average price of
$14.45 per share, or 86.7% of the 2,737,334 shares authorized for
repurchase under the Company’s repurchase program adopted in August
2015. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 the Company
had repurchased 314,010 shares of its stock at an average price of
$19.30 per share. The Company did not repurchase any of its shares
under its repurchase program during the quarter ended September 30,
2018.
Mr. Gavegnano concluded, “Although the Company
did not repurchase any shares during the third quarter of 2018
under the current repurchase program, 117,313 shares were
surrendered at an average price of $17.31 per share in connection
with income taxes withheld from employees from shares that would
have been issued from stock options exercised. We will consider
buying additional shares under our repurchase program when
conditions are determined to be favorable.”

_____________________________
(1) Income on debt securities,
equity securities and revenue bonds included in commercial real
estate loans, as well as resulting yields, interest rate spread and
net interest margin, are presented on a tax-equivalent basis. The
tax-equivalent adjustments are deducted from tax-equivalent net
interest income to agree to amounts reported in the consolidated
statements of net income. For the three months ended September
30, 2018, June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017, yields on
loans before tax-equivalent adjustments were 4.25%, 4.29% and
4.20%, respectively, yields on securities and certificates of
deposit before tax-equivalent adjustments were 2.30%, 2.38%
and 1.65%, respectively, and yield on total interest-earning
assets before tax-equivalent adjustments were 4.13%, 4.12%
and 4.01%, respectively. Interest rate spread before
tax-equivalent adjustments for the three months
ended September 30, 2018, June 30, 2018
and September 30, 2017 was 2.65%, 2.77% and 2.96%,
respectively, while net interest margin before tax-equivalent
adjustments for the three months ended September 30,
2018, June 30, 2018 and September 30, 2017
was 2.94%, 3.03% and 3.18%, respectively.
(2) Loans on non-accrual status are included in average
balances. (3) Includes Federal Home Loan Bank stock and
associated dividends. (4) Interest rate spread
represents the difference between the tax-equivalent yield on
interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing
liabilities. (5) Net interest margin represents net
interest income (tax-equivalent basis) divided by average
interest-earning assets. (6) Annualized.

_______________________________
(1) Income on debt securities,
equity securities and revenue bonds included in commercial real
estate loans, as well as resulting yields, interest rate spread and
net interest margin, are presented on a tax-equivalent basis. The
tax-equivalent adjustments are deducted from tax-equivalent net
interest income to agree to amounts reported in the consolidated
statements of net income. For the nine months ended September
30, 2018, and 2017, yields on loans before tax-equivalent
adjustments were 4.26% and 4.15%, respectively, yields on
securities and certificates of deposit before tax-equivalent
adjustments were 2.22% and 1.67%, respectively, and yield on total
interest-earning assets before tax-equivalent adjustments were
4.10% and 3.93%, respectively. Interest rate spread before
tax-equivalent adjustments for the nine months ended September
30, 2018, and 2017 was 2.76% and 2.91%, respectively,
while net interest margin before tax-equivalent adjustments for the
nine months ended September 30, 2018, and 2017 was 3.02% and
3.13%, respectively. (2) Loans on non-accrual status
are included in average balances. (3) Includes Federal
Home Loan Bank stock and associated dividends. (4)
Interest rate spread represents the difference between the
tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets and the cost of
interest-bearing liabilities. (5) Net interest margin
represents net interest income (tax-equivalent basis) divided by
average interest-earning assets. (6) Annualized.

______________________________
(1) Annualized.(2)
Interest rate spread represents the difference between the
tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets and the cost of
interest-bearing liabilities. (3) Net interest margin
represents net interest income (tax-equivalent basis) divided by
average interest-earning assets. (4) The efficiency
ratio is a non-GAAP measure representing measure representing
non-interest expense, excluding merger and acquisition expenses,
divided by the sum of net interest income and non-interest income
excluding gains or losses on sales of securities, and gains or
losses on equity securities. The efficiency ratio is a common
measure used by banks to understand expenses related to the
generation of revenue. We have removed gains or losses on sales of
securities and gains or losses on equity securities as management
deems them to be either discretionary or market driven and not
representative of operating performance. We have removed merger and
acquisition expenses as management deems them to be not
representative of operating performance. Presented on a basis
including merger and acquisition expenses, gains or losses on sales
of securities and gains or losses on equity securities, the
efficiency ratio was 51.08%, 53.44% and 48.06% for the quarters
ended September 30, 2018, June 30, 2018, and September 30, 2017,
respectively, and 54.27% and 52.88% for the nine months ended
September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively. (5) Tangible
book value per share represents total stockholders’ equity less
goodwill and other intangible assets divided by the number of
shares outstanding.
