Significant Expansion in Net Interest Margin and Net Interest Income Highlight Q3 Results

Well-Positioned Balance Sheet with Strong Capital and Liquidity

STUART, Fla., Oct. 27, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Seacoast Banking Corporation of Florida ("Seacoast" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: SBCF) today reported net income in the third quarter of 2022 of $29.2 million, or $0.47 per diluted share. Third quarter 2022 net income decreased 11% compared to the second quarter of 2022 due to higher provision for credit losses resulting from changes in economic forecast factors, and additional coverage for estimated economic impacts from Hurricane Ian. Third quarter 2022 net income increased 27% compared to the third quarter of 2021. Adjusted net income1 for the third quarter of 2022 was $32.8 million, or $0.53 per diluted share. Third quarter 2022 adjusted net income1 decreased 10% compared to the second quarter of 2022 due to a higher provision for credit losses. Third quarter 2022 adjusted net income1 increased 12% compared to the third quarter of 2021. Pre-tax pre-provision earnings1 were $43.1 million in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of 1% compared to the second quarter of 2022 and 23% compared to the third quarter of 2021. Adjusted pre-tax pre-provision earnings1 were $49.0 million in the third quarter of 2022, an increase of 6% compared to the second quarter of 2022 and 12% compared to the third quarter of 2021.

At September 30, 2022, the ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets increased to 9.79%, and tangible book value per share was $15.98. A decline in the value of the available for sale securities portfolio, driven by rising interest rates during the first three quarters of 2022, negatively impacted the ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets by 159 basis points and negatively impacted tangible book value per share by $2.93 compared to December 31, 2021.

For the third quarter of 2022, return on average tangible assets was 1.17%, return on average tangible shareholders' equity was 11.53%, and the efficiency ratio was 57.13%, compared to 1.29%, 13.01%, and 56.22%, respectively, in the prior quarter, and 1.00%, 9.56%, and 59.55%, respectively, in the prior year quarter. Adjusted return on average tangible assets1 in the third quarter of 2022 was 1.27%, adjusted return on average tangible shareholders' equity1 was 12.48%, and the adjusted efficiency ratio1 was 53.28%, compared to 1.38%, 13.97%, and 53.15%, respectively, in the prior quarter, and 1.23%, 11.72%, and 51.50%, respectively, in the prior year quarter.

Charles M. Shaffer, Seacoast's Chairman and CEO, said, "Seacoast’s team delivered another solid quarter, highlighted by a significant increase in the net interest margin and net interest income, disciplined growth in loan outstandings, and continued strong asset quality metrics. In addition, quarter over quarter, adjusted pre-tax pre-provision earnings of $49.0 million improved 6%, driven by a material increase in net interest income."

Shaffer added, "We continue to operate the company with a robust balance sheet, fortified by a tangible common equity ratio of 9.79%, which increased over the prior quarter despite rising interest rates that impacted accumulated comprehensive income. We saw continued improvements in already strong credit quality metrics, and the allowance for credit losses totals $95.3 million, with an additional $19.1 million in purchase discount on acquired loans. This provides meaningful loss absorption capacity which, when aggregated, represents 1.71% of loans outstanding. Seacoast’s balance sheet is supported by one of the best customer franchises in the industry, delivering low-cost funding and liquidity. We closed the quarter with a loan to deposit ratio of 76% which, looking forward, allows remix of the balance sheet to higher-yielding earning assets to support continued growth in net interest income."

Shaffer concluded, "I would like to thank all Seacoast associates for focusing on quickly recovering from Hurricane Ian and assisting our customers after the storm passed. All Seacoast branch offices were open within a few days, and the team rapidly pivoted and completed the Apollo and Drummond acquisitions. The team showed remarkable commitment and resilience in the face of a significant weather event, and I am very proud of all involved."

Acquisitions Update

Seacoast’s balanced growth strategy, combining organic growth with value-creating acquisitions, continues to benefit shareholders and expand the franchise across Florida.

On October 7, 2022, the Company completed the previously announced acquisition of Apollo Bancshares, Inc. (“Apollo”), which added approximately $718 million in loans and $857 million in deposits, and will provide expansion into Miami-Dade county, one of the fastest growing and most dynamic markets in the United States. System conversion activities were completed immediately after the closing of the transaction.

Also on October 7, 2022, the Company completed the previously announced acquisition of Drummond Banking Company (“Drummond”), providing Seacoast with an entry point into Gainesville, Ocala, and surrounding markets adding low-cost core deposits and diversified business lines. At the closing date, Drummond had approximately $590 million in loans and $882 million in deposits, providing a strong core deposit base, which highlights depository relationships that will provide a stable funding source for future loan growth and higher margins in a rising rate environment. Full integration and system conversion activities are expected to be completed in the first quarter of 2023.

On August 8, 2022, the Company announced its proposed acquisition of Professional Holding Corp. (“Professional”) (NASDAQ: PFHD), the sixth largest bank headquartered in South Florida. The transaction, which is expected to close in the first quarter of 2023, will increase market share in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach counties. Full integration and system conversion activities are expected to be completed late in the second quarter of 2023.

In the first quarter of 2022, Seacoast completed the acquisitions of Sabal Palm Bancorp, Inc. (“Sabal Palm”) in Sarasota and Business Bank of Florida Corp. (“BBFC”) in Brevard County, which collectively added a combined $368 million in loans and $562 million in deposits. Integration activities, including system conversion, were completed in the first quarter of 2022 for BBFC and in the second quarter of 2022 for Sabal Palm.

Update on Hurricane Ian

In late September, communities across our corporate footprint were impacted by Hurricane Ian. We maintained uninterrupted digital and telephone access for our customers and, having experienced minimal impacts to our branch properties, we fully reopened to serve our communities shortly after the storm had passed. Recovery efforts in many areas continue and the full impacts on people and businesses in the most hard-hit regions are not fully known. In light of these uncertainties, the Company added $2.1 million to the provision for credit losses.

    • Mortgage banking fees continue to be impacted by the overall slowdown attributed to significant increases in mortgage rates and low inventory levels, declining $0.5 million compared to the prior quarter.
    • Other income increased by $0.2 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to the prior quarter, with increases in SBIC investment income offset by lower loan-swap related income.
    • The Company recognized $0.4 million in securities losses in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2022 and nominal losses in the third quarter of 2021. Losses in each period represent mark to market adjustment on the Company’s CRA-qualified mutual fund.
  • The provision for credit losses was $4.7 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $0.8 million in the prior quarter. The increase reflects loan growth, along with changes in economic forecast factors, and losses that may result from the impact of Hurricane Ian on our borrowers.

Changes from the second quarter of 2022 included the following:
    • Salaries and wages increased $0.4 million to $28.4 million in the third quarter of 2022. During the third quarter the Company had the opportunity to invest in a team of well-seasoned C&I focused commercial bankers, treasury officers, and credit officers in North Florida, complementing our acquisition of Drummond and further expanding our reach in Ocala and Gainesville. Additionally, we expanded our commercial banking team in West and Central Florida, adding a significant number of bankers in these markets. Lastly, we hired numerous support and treasury roles supporting the Company's successful strategy of banking middle market operating companies.
    • Outsourced data processing costs decreased by $0.7 million in the third quarter of 2022, primarily attributed to merger related conversion costs incurred in the second quarter of 2022.
    • Occupancy costs increased quarter over quarter as a result of the Company acquiring two branch properties that it had previously leased. The resulting write-offs of lease assets of $0.9 million impacted occupancy expense during the quarter, with ongoing expected annual savings of $0.3 million in net occupancy expense on these branches.
    • Legal and professional fees increased by $0.8 million to $3.8 million in the third quarter of 2022, reflecting higher merger-related expenses and professional fees on a project that was completed.

The increase in the ratio was primarily driven by a decline in total assets from the prior quarter.
  • The efficiency ratio was 57.13% in the third quarter of 2022, compared to 56.22% in the second quarter of 2022 and 59.55% in the prior year quarter.

Third Quarter 2022 Strategic Highlights

Capitalizing on Seacoast’s Commitment to Digital Transformation

  • During the third quarter, Seacoast launched several new digital banking features by building an even more competitive digital experience while positioning the bank to scale across the state. The addition of an online account opening functionality streamlines account opening for customers and enhanced fraud protection tools for both businesses and consumers provides additional safeguards.
  • Seacoast’s online banking features are now available in both English and Spanish, supporting customer preferences and enhancing our ability to bring relationship-based banking to markets across the state.

Driving Sustainable Growth and Expanding our Footprint

  • As the Company continues its focus on building the leading commercial bank in Florida, Chris Rolle and Brannon Fitch, previously Regional Presidents in West and North Florida, respectively, have taken on new roles as South Group President and North Group President, responsible for leading the commercial banking teams in their respective markets.
  • During the quarter, the Company recruited a well-seasoned and successful C&I focused commercial banking team in North Florida, complementing the Drummond acquisition, and expanding its reach into Ocala and Gainesville. The Company also expanded its commercial banking team in West and Central Florida. Additionally, well-seasoned successful treasury talent was added to the franchise in multiple markets, supporting the Company’s successful strategy of banking middle market operating companies.
  • The Company completed the acquisition of Apollo Bancshares, Inc. on October 7, 2022, adding meaningful scale in Miami-Dade county and a growth-oriented team with deep local relationships. The technology conversion went extremely well, and the Miami-Dade county team is now fully focused on growing the franchise.
  • Also on October 7, 2022, the Company completed the acquisition of Drummond Bancshares, Inc. Drummond is a 32 year-old institution with a seasoned, consistently profitable franchise. Its low-cost core deposits are driven by deep customer loyalty, and the acquisition adds presence in the rapidly growing North Florida market. As of September 30, 2022, Drummond’s demand deposits represented 78% of its total deposits.
  • The upcoming acquisition of Professional Holding Corp. expands the Company’s presence in the tri-county South Florida area, with a relationship-driven team focused on local businesses. The acquisition will further enhance Seacoast’s branch network and add scarcity value in a robust banking market.

Scaling and Evolving Our Culture

  • Seacoast has been recognized by the Human Rights Foundation for the third consecutive year, earning a perfect score for Workplace Equality in the 2022 Corporate Equality index.
  • For the second year in a row, Seacoast is thrilled to be named one of the Orlando Business Journal's 2022 Best Places to Work, which highlights our commitment to employees’ well-being, as well as our numerous diversity and inclusion initiatives.

Explanation of Certain Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This presentation contains financial information determined by methods other than Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its analysis of the Company’s performance and believes these presentations provide useful supplemental information, and a clearer understanding of the Company’s performance. The Company believes the non-GAAP measures enhance investors’ understanding of the Company’s business and performance and if not provided would be requested by the investor community. These measures are also useful in understanding performance trends and facilitate comparisons with the performance of other financial institutions. The limitations associated with operating measures are the risk that persons might disagree as to the appropriateness of items comprising these measures and that different companies might define or calculate these measures differently. The Company provides reconciliations between GAAP and these non-GAAP measures. These disclosures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP.
