Signature Bank (Nasdaq: SBNY), a New York-based full service
commercial bank, today announced results for its second quarter
ended June 30, 2019.
Net income for the 2019 second quarter was $147.9 million, or
$2.72 diluted earnings per share, versus $154.6 million, or $2.83
diluted earnings per share, for the 2018 second quarter. The
decrease in net income for the 2019 second quarter, versus the
comparable quarter last year, is due to an increase of $19.3
million in non-interest expenses mostly due to the significant
hiring of private client banking teams, including nearly 50
employees added for the Fund Banking Division, Venture Banking
Group and the Kanno-Wood Team.
Net interest income for the 2019 second quarter reached $326.3
million, up $5.3 million, or 1.6 percent, when compared with the
2018 second quarter. This increase is primarily due to growth in
average interest-earning assets. Total assets reached $48.88
billion at June 30, 2019, an increase of $3.66 billion, or 8.1
percent, from $45.22 billion at June 30, 2018. Average assets for
the 2019 second quarter reached $48.78 billion, an increase of
$4.20 billion, or 9.4 percent, compared with the 2018 second
quarter.
Deposits for the 2019 second quarter rose $917.9 million to
$37.54 billion at June 30, 2019. When compared with deposits at
June 30, 2018, overall deposit growth for the last twelve months
was 7.3 percent, or $2.55 billion. Average deposits for the 2019
second quarter reached $36.93 billion, an increase of $456.0
million.
“During the past several years, and particularly over the last
twelve months, Signature Bank has been focused on expanding our
franchise and securing a larger presence throughout the national
banking landscape. To reflect, we began diversifying our revenue
streams with the launch of Signature Financial, our specialty
finance subsidiary. We continued the diversification and expansion
of the Bank with the addition of the Digital Banking Team and the
Fund Banking Division, which have both already made meaningful
contributions. Moreover, we recently added the Venture Banking
Group as well as the Kanno-Wood team, which will provide treasury
management products and services to residential and commercial
mortgage servicers. We also launched Signet, our 24/7 payments
platform, which today continues to be the only such platform
offered by an FDIC-insured institution. All these banking teams,
which are national in scope, have raised Signature Bank’s profile
and offerings and are contributing to a more diversified credit and
asset liability position over the short and long term,” explained
Joseph J. DePaolo, President and Chief Executive Officer.
“Signature Bank is establishing a banking presence across the
country. We have always grown this institution prudently and
methodically, utilizing our strong reputation and solid capital
position to attract the best bankers available in their industry
and keeping the needs of our clients and their depositor safety at
the forefront of all we do,” DePaolo concluded.
“In spite of a challenging deposit environment, we once again
delivered solid deposit and loan growth leading to strong earnings.
Also, we further reduced our risk in the Taxi Medallion portfolio
with the sale of $46.4 million in NYC taxi loans on 375 medallions.
Additionally, we have put in place several major new initiatives,
which will provide significant benefit to our institution over the
coming years. Personally, I have never been more positive on our
future growth prospects. Our model of doing business remains
robust, and we will continue to build value for our long-term
investors,” explained Scott A. Shay, Chairman of the Board.
Capital
The Bank’s Tier 1 leverage, common equity Tier 1 risk-based,
Tier 1 risk-based, and total risk-based capital ratios were
approximately 9.70 percent, 11.59 percent, 11.59 percent, and 12.82
percent, respectively, as of June 30, 2019. Each of these ratios is
well in excess of regulatory requirements. The Bank’s strong
risk-based capital ratios reflect the relatively low risk profile
of the Bank’s balance sheet. The Bank’s tangible common equity
ratio remains strong at 9.46 percent. The Bank defines tangible
common equity ratio as the ratio of tangible common equity to
adjusted tangible assets and calculates this ratio by dividing
total consolidated common shareholders’ equity by consolidated
total assets.
The Bank declared a cash dividend for the second quarter of
$0.56 per share, payable on or after August 15, 2019 to common
stockholders of record at the close of business on August 1, 2019.
In the second quarter of 2019, the Bank paid the first quarter’s
cash dividend of $0.56 per share to common stockholders of record
at the close of business on May 1, 2019. Additionally, during the
2019 second quarter, the Bank repurchased 412,977 shares of common
stock for a total of $50.0 million. Since the 2018 fourth quarter,
the Bank has repurchased $114.7 million of common stock from its
$500 million authorization.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the 2019 second quarter was $326.3
million, an increase of $5.3 million, or 1.6 percent, versus the
same period last year, primarily due to growth in average
interest-earning assets. Average interest-earning assets of $47.94
billion for the 2019 second quarter represent an increase of $4.05
billion, or 9.2 percent, from the 2018 second quarter. Yield on
interest-earning assets for the 2019 second quarter increased 21
basis points to 4.03 percent, compared to the second quarter of
last year.
Average cost of deposits and average cost of funds for the
second quarter of 2019 increased by 43 and 46 basis points, to 1.19
percent and 1.42 percent, respectively, versus the comparable
period a year ago.
Net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis for the 2019
second quarter was 2.74 percent versus 2.94 percent reported in the
2018 second quarter and 2.75 percent in the 2019 first quarter.
Excluding loan prepayment penalties in both quarters, linked
quarter core net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis
decreased two basis points to 2.71 percent.
Provision for Loan Losses
The Bank’s provision for loan losses for the second quarter of
2019 was $5.4 million, compared with $6.3 million for the 2019
first quarter and $8.0 million for the 2018 second quarter.
Net recoveries for the 2019 second quarter were $3.7 million, or
0.04 percent of average loans, on an annualized basis, versus net
charge offs of $879,000, or 0.01 percent, for the 2019 first
quarter and net charge offs of $3.0 million, or 0.04 percent, for
the 2018 second quarter.
Non-Interest Income and Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest income for the 2019 second quarter was $8.6
million, up $3.0 million when compared with $5.6 million reported
in the 2018 second quarter. The increase was driven by a $3.0
million increase in net gains on sales of loans, mostly due to a
portfolio sale of Signature Financial equipment loans.
Non-interest expense for the second quarter of 2019 was $131.9
million, an increase of $19.3 million, or 17.1 percent, versus
$112.6 million reported in the 2018 second quarter. The increase
was predominantly due to an increase of $8.7 million in salaries
and benefits from the significant hiring of private client banking
teams, including nearly 50 employees added for the Fund Banking
Division, the Venture Banking Group and the Kanno-Wood Team.
The Bank’s efficiency ratio was 39.4 percent for the 2019 second
quarter versus 34.5 percent for the comparable period last year.
The Bank’s efficiency ratio was negatively impacted by the decline
in net interest margin as well as an increase in salaries and
benefits predominantly due to the aforementioned hiring of private
client banking teams.
Loans
Loans, excluding loans held for sale, grew $466.5 million, or
1.2 percent, during the second quarter of 2019 to $37.93 billion,
compared with $37.47 billion at March 31, 2019. Average loans,
excluding loans held for sale, reached $37.82 billion in the 2019
second quarter, growing $950.9 million, or 2.6 percent, from the
2019 first quarter and $4.15 billion, or 12.3 percent, from the
2018 second quarter. For the third consecutive quarter, the
increase in loans for the second quarter was primarily driven by
growth in commercial and industrial loans.
In the 2019 second quarter, the Bank sold $46.4 million of its
non-performing New York City taxi medallion loans. The Bank now has
$18.8 million in non-performing taxi medallion loans and $43.8
million in repossessed taxi medallions remaining. Additionally,
capitalizing on the interest rate environment and as part of our
ongoing management of credit exposures to our clients, Signature
Financial’s Capital Markets Desk sold a $91.8 million portfolio of
performing equipment loans for a gain of $2.4 million.
At June 30, 2019, non-accrual loans were $41.3 million,
representing 0.11 percent of total loans and 0.08 percent of total
assets, compared with non-accrual loans of $94.7 million, or 0.25
percent of total loans, at March 31, 2019 and $158.1 million, or
0.46 percent of total loans, at June 30, 2018. Excluding
non-accruing loans secured by taxi medallions of $18.8 million,
non-accrual loans for the remainder of the portfolio are $22.5
million, or six basis points of total loans. The ratio of allowance
for loan and lease losses to total loans at June 30, 2019 was 0.64
percent, up one basis point from March 31, 2019 and June 30, 2018.
Additionally, the ratio of allowance for loan and lease losses to
non-accrual loans, or the coverage ratio, was 593 percent for the
2019 second quarter versus 249 percent for the first quarter of
2019 and 135 percent for the 2018 second quarter.

Based on the 21 percent U.S. federal statutory tax rate for the
periods presented. The tax-equivalent basis is considered a
non-GAAP financial measure and should be considered in addition to,
not as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures
determined in accordance with GAAP. This ratio is a metric used by
management to evaluate the impact of tax-exempt assets on the
Bank's yield on interest-earning assets and net interest margin.

We define tangible common equity as the ratio of total tangible
common equity to total tangible assets (the "TCE ratio"). Tangible
common equity is considered to be a non-GAAP financial measure and
should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or
superior to, financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP.
The TCE ratio is a metric used by management to evaluate the
adequacy of our capital levels. In addition to tangible common
equity, management uses other metrics, such as Tier 1 capital
related ratios, to evaluate capital levels. See "Non-GAAP Financial
Measures" for related calculation.

BANK NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (unaudited)
Management believes that the presentation of certain
non-GAAP financial measures assist investors when comparing results
period-to-period in a more consistent manner and provides a better
measure of Signature Bank's results. These non-GAAP measures
include the Bank's (i) tangible common equity ratio, (ii)
efficiency ratio, (iii) yield on interest-earning assets,
tax-equivalent basis, and (iv) core net interest margin,
tax-equivalent basis excluding loan prepayment penalty income.
These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for
GAAP-basis measures and results. We strongly encourage investors to
review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and
not to rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP
financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to
compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP
financial measures having the same or similar names. The
