First South Bancorp, Inc. Reports Record Loan Growth

December 31, 2015 Quarterly and Year End Operating Results

 

Washington, North Carolina - First South Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: FSBK) (the “Company”), the parent holding company of First South Bank (the “Bank”), reports its unaudited financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2015.

 

Loan and lease growth during the fourth quarter remained strong for the Company as loans and leases held for investment increased $39.7 million to bring the total outstandings to $607.0 million at year end 2015. Growth in loans and leases held for investment for 2015 totaled $126.6 million or a 26.3% increase over the $480.4 million outstanding at year end 2014. This expansion in our loan base will be a strong catalysis of income growth for the Company into 2016.

 

For the 2015 fourth quarter, net income was $1.6 million or $0.16 per diluted common share, compared to net income of $1.2 million, or $0.13 per diluted common share for the linked 2015 third quarter and $149,000 or $0.02 per diluted common share for the comparative 2014 fourth quarter. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $4.7 million, or $0.49 per diluted common share, compared to $4.1 million, or $0.42 per diluted common share for the year ended December 31, 2014. Income for the fourth quarter and the year-ended 2014 reflects the impact of $1.7 million of one-time pre-tax transaction expenses associated with the acquisition of nine branch offices from Bank of America (BOA) in mid-December.

 

Bruce Elder, President and CEO, commented, “Our greatest challenges heading into 2015 were leveraging the large deposit base acquired through the branch purchase and introducing the First South Bank brand into new markets. We were able to grow our loan and lease portfolios by $126.6 million or over 26% during 2015. We achieved this record growth without sacrificing credit underwriting standards or taking undo interest rate risk. Despite the growth in loans, asset quality has improved significantly as we enjoyed declines in both non-performing loans and non-performing assets. Our efforts to leverage the branch acquisition are translating into better financial results as our monthly earnings in both November and December of 2015 exceed pre-acquisition levels.”

 

Mr. Elder continued, “We remain committed to gaining greater efficiency while at the same time evaluating new growth opportunities. During 2015, we consolidated the deposits, loans and operations of several branches resulting in the closing of two offices and have announced three more such consolidations which will occur in February 2016. We established a new full-service branch location in Williamston, North Carolina in late November broadening our geographic footprint into several agricultural rich counties of eastern North Carolina which have been underserved by a true community bank. For 2016, we will continue to evaluate our markets and branch facilities, deploy a more targeted marketing effort to further enhance deposit market share and loan growth and invest in our digital banking platform.”

 

Net Interest Income

 

Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2015 increased to $7.7 million from $7.4 million for the linked 2015 third quarter and $6.8 million earned for the comparative 2014 fourth quarter. Net interest income for the year ended 2015 improved to $29.4 million, a $3.0 million or 11.2% increase, from the $26.4 million generated during the comparative year ended 2014. The tax equivalent net interest margin improved one basis point to 3.64% for the 2015 fourth quarter, from 3.63 % for the linked 2015 third quarter, and fell 14 basis points when compared to 3.78% for the 2014 fourth quarter. The tax equivalent net interest margin for the year ended 2015 declined by 42 basis points to 3.64%, from 4.06% for the comparative year ended 2014.

 

 

 

The increase in net interest income during the 2015 fourth quarter versus the linked third quarter was due to strong loan growth during the period. Average loans held for investment increased $34.0 million during the fourth quarter of 2015, driving revenues higher. While the overall yield on the loan portfolio fell two basis points when compared to the third quarter of 2015, the shift in our earning asset mix to more of a weighting in loans resulted in a one basis point increase to the Company’s net interest margin for the quarter.

 

The increase in interest income in 2015 from both the comparative full year and fourth quarter 2014 periods is due to higher volumes of earning assets. The 2015 loan growth coupled with the ramp up of investment securities in advance of the branch acquisition during the fourth quarter of 2014 fueled the earning asset growth. The decline in net interest margin for the comparative full year period was due to the mix of average earning asset growth being more heavily weighted toward the investment portfolio. We anticipate that given a stable to slow rising interest rate environment, the margin should experience slight improvement as the mix continues to shift to higher yielding assets.

 

Asset Quality and Provisions for Loan Losses

 

Total nonperforming assets were $9.4 million, or 1.0% of total assets at December 31, 2015, compared to $13.2 million or 1.5% of total assets at December 31, 2014. Total loans in non-accrual status were $3.2 million at December 31, 2015, compared to $5.0 million at December 31, 2014. Our level of OREO declined to $6.1 million at December 31, 2015, from $7.8 million at December 31, 2014. The Bank continues to emphasize asset quality as a crucial driver of its short and long-term success.

 

The allowance for loan and lease losses (ALLL) was $7.9 million at December 31, 2015, representing 1.30% of loans and leases held for investment, compared to $7.5 million at December 31, 2014, or 1.57% of loans and leases held for investment. The Bank recorded $325,000 of provisions for credit losses in the 2015 fourth quarter, $335,000 in the linked 2015 third quarter, and none in the comparative 2014 fourth quarter. During the years ended 2015 and 2014, the Bank recorded $800,000 and $1.1 million of provisions for credit losses for each of the years, respectively. Management believes the ALLL remains adequate.

 

Non-Interest Income

 

Total non-interest income for the 2015 fourth quarter of $3.7 million was relatively consistent with the $3.8 million earned during the linked 2015 third quarter and above the $2.3 million earned for the 2014 fourth quarter. The year-over-year increase is due primarily to additional service and fee income on deposit accounts associated with the acquisition of branch offices in mid-December of 2014, coupled with gains on the sale of investment securities realized in the fourth quarter of 2015.

 

Deposit fees and service charges were $2.0 million for the 2015 fourth quarter compared to $2.1 million earned in the linked 2015 third quarter and $1.2 million in the 2014 fourth quarter. Total non-interest income generated from the sale and servicing of mortgage loans and loan fees improved to $820,000 for the 2015 fourth quarter, compared with $792,000 in the linked 2015 third quarter and $603,000 for the 2014 fourth quarter. As we sell the majority of our originated mortgage loans and retain the servicing rights, the increased volume of loan activity in 2015 versus that of 2014 has had a positive impact on recurring servicing revenue. We continue to explore various strategies to enhance our non-interest income, including adding to the level of loans serviced for others.

 

Net gains recognized from the sale of OREO was $31,000 for the 2015 fourth quarter, compared to a $63,000 net loss for the linked 2015 third quarter and a $33,000 net gain for the comparative 2014 fourth quarter.

 

The Bank realized $463,000 of gains on investment security sales during the 2015 fourth quarter and $503,000 during the linked third quarter or the 2015. There were no securities gains realized during the fourth quarter of 2014.

 

 

 

Included in other non-interest income is revenue from investments in Bank-owned life insurance (BOLI) of $128,000 for the 2015 fourth quarter, $127,000 for the linked 2015 third quarter and $134,000 for the 2014 fourth quarter.

 

For the year ended 2015, total non-interest income was $14.3 million, compared to $8.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2014. This improved level of non-interest income is the result of higher service fees on a larger base of deposit accounts with the acquisition of nine branch offices, coupled with increased fees from the sales and servicing of mortgage loans, and gains realized from the sale of investment securities.

 

Fees and service charges on deposits were $8.1 million for the current period compared to $4.4 million for the prior year period. This increase in the level of service and fee income on deposit accounts is due primarily to additional income on deposit accounts associated with the acquisition of branch offices in mid-December of 2014. During 2015 the Bank experienced an increase in mortgage activity due to the improving economic conditions and an accommodative interest environment. As a result, revenue generated from the sale and servicing of mortgage loans and loan fees increased by $709,000 to $3.1 million for 2015, from $2.4 million for 2014.

 

Net gains recognized from the sale of OREO declined to $40,000 for the year ended 2015 from $115,000 in 2014. The Bank realized $1.4 million of gains on investment security sales during 2015 compared to $14,000 for 2014. BOLI earnings were $510,000 for 2015, compared to $531,000 for the year ended December 31, 2014. The investment returns from the BOLI offset a portion of the cost of providing benefit plans to our employees.

 

Non-Interest Expense

 

Total non-interest expenses were $9.1 million for the 2015 fourth quarter, compared to $9.0 million for the linked 2015 third quarter and $8.9 million for the 2014 fourth quarter. For the year ended 2015, total non-interest expenses were $36.4 million, compared to $28.5 million reported for the year ended 2014. The overall increase in the Company’s non-interest expenses relative to historical levels is due to the infrastructure added to operate and support a larger asset and deposit base resulting from the acquisition of nine branch offices in mid-December of 2014.

 

Compensation and benefits expenses, the largest component of non-interest expenses, were $4.9 million for both the third and fourth quarters of 2015, and $4.4 million for the 2014 fourth quarter. For the year ended 2015, compensation and benefits expense totaled $19.4 million, compared to $15.8 million reported in 2014. Compensation and benefits expenses for the 2014 fourth quarter and the year ended 2014 includes $241,000 of acquisition expenses. The Bank will continue to manage staffing levels to ensure we meet the ongoing needs of our customers and to support our future growth.

 

Premises and equipment expense was $1.4 million for the 2015 fourth quarter, compared to $1.3 million for the linked 2015 third quarter and $1.1 million for the 2014 fourth quarter. For the year ended 2015, premises and equipment expense was $5.3 million, compared to $3.6 million reported in 2014. The addition of nine new branch locations in December of 2014 has resulted in a higher level of occupancy costs for the Company. Our continuing evaluation of current markets and facilities, as well as exploring new opportunities to expand our footprint, will impact future occupancy expenses.

 

FDIC insurance was $164,000 for the 2015 fourth quarter, compared to $163,000 for the linked 2015 third quarter and $145,000 for the 2014 fourth quarter. For the year ended 2015, FDIC insurance was $609,000 versus $566,000 reported in 2014. The change in volume of FDIC insurance is attributable to period-over-period growth in the Bank’s balance sheet.

 

 

 

Advertising and marketing expense was $222,000 for the 2015 fourth quarter, compared to $219,000 for the linked 2015 third quarter and $371,000 for the 2014 fourth quarter. For the year ended 2015, advertising expense was $820,000, compared to $667,000 reported in 2014. We anticipate advertising and marketing expenses to remain at approximately 2% of total revenues.

 

Data processing costs were $778,000 for the 2015 fourth quarter, compared to $819,000 for the linked 2015 third quarter and $604,000 for the 2014 fourth quarter. For the years ended 2015 and 2014, data processing costs were $3.6 million and $2.3 million, respectively. Data processing costs fluctuate in conjunction with changes in the number of customer accounts and transaction activity volumes and therefore, the full year addition of accounts and customers with the branch acquisition drove these costs above 2014 levels.

 

As the Bank’s level of OREO on its books has fallen so have the expenses attributable to ongoing maintenance, property taxes and insurance for OREO properties. These expenses declined to $69,000 for the 2015 fourth quarter, compared $89,000 for the linked 2015 third quarter and $123,000 for the comparative 2014 fourth quarter. For the year ended 2015, total ongoing OREO expenses fell to $436,000 from $445,000 for the prior year. Quarterly valuation adjustments were $100,000 for the 2015 fourth quarter, and $10,000 for the linked 2015 third quarter and $131,000 for the comparative 2014 fourth quarter. Total OREO valuation adjustments were $195,000 for 2015 compared to $204,000 for the prior year.

 

Other general and administrative expense was $1.4 million for the 2015 fourth quarter, compared to $1.3 million for the linked 2015 third quarter and $2.0 million for the 2014 fourth quarter. For the year ended 2015, other expenses were $5.5 million, compared to $4.6 million reported in 2014. The year-over-year increase in these expenses is due to the operations of a larger banking franchise. Other expenses for the 2014 fourth quarter and the year ended 2014 includes acquisition related expenses of $1.0 million.

 

Income tax expense was $484,000 for the 2015 fourth quarter, compared to $611,000 for the linked 2015 third quarter and $33,000 for the 2014 fourth quarter. For the year ended 2015, income tax expense was $1.8 million, versus $1.3 million for 2014. The effective income tax rates were 28.2% and 24.8% for the years ended 2015 and 2014, respectively. Changes in income tax expense and marginal tax rates have been impacted by a variety of factors in both 2015 and 2014. Taxes for the third quarter of 2015 includes a one-time $80,000 expense adjustment due a write down of our deferred tax asset given the impending reduction in the North Carolina corporate statutory tax rate for 2016. The fourth quarter of 2014 tax expense was impacted by one-time expenses associated with the branch acquisition.

 

During the third quarter of 2015, the Company determined that its income tax expense associated with prior periods had been understated by a net amount of $434,000.  For the periods prior to 2014 the cumulative net income tax expense understatement was $651,000.  During 2014 the Company overstated income tax expense by $217,000.  As a result our deferred tax asset and our income tax receivable accounts have been adjusted to reflect the correction of this error, with a corresponding $434,000 reduction recorded to retained earnings.  These corrections are similarly reflected as an adjustment to retained earnings as of December 31, 2014 in the consolidated statement of changes in equity.

 

Balance Sheet

 

Total assets increased to $946.3 million at December 31, 2015, from $885.4 million at December 31, 2014. The $60.9 million increase in assets is the result of strong growth in our loans and leases held for investment. Loans and leases held for investment totaled $607.0 million as of December 31, 2015, versus $480.4 million as of December 31, 2014, an increase of $126.6 million or 26.3%.

 

The investment securities portfolio was reduced $44.0 million to $248.8 million as of December 31, 2015, from $292.8 million at December 31, 2014. This reduction was the result of cash flows from scheduled amortization and maturities as well as sales of securities, with the proceeds used to support growth in loan outstandings.

 

 

 

Interest-bearing deposits with banks were reduced by $14.3 million during 2015 as cash was redeployed into the loan portfolio, and as a result, interest-bearing deposits as of December 31, 2015 totaled $18.6 million.

 

The Bank did not make any additional BOLI investments during the year ended 2015. BOLI as of December 31, 2015 totaled $15.6 million, a $510,000 increase in cash surrender life value over the $15.1 million of BOLI investments at December 31, 2014.

 

Intangible assets decreased $287,000 to $6.1 million at December 31, 2015, from $6.4 million at December 31, 2014, reflecting the amortization of the core deposit intangible associated with the BOA transaction, which is anticipated to be amortized over a ten year period.

 

Total deposits as of December 31, 2015 were $811.3 million, an increase of $23.0 million from the $788.3 million of deposits as of the prior year end. This growth was comprised of $17.3 million increases in non-maturity deposit categories and a $5.7 million increase in time deposits. As anticipated, approximately 10% of the $172 million of deposits acquired in BOA transaction left the Bank in 2015. This attrition took place primarily during the first half of 2015 and was concentrated in non-interest bearing checking, interest bearing checking, and money market deposit categories.

 

As of December 31, 2015 the Bank had $37.0 million of FHLB advances outstanding versus none as of December 31, 2014. The Bank uses FHLB borrowings as a supplemental funding source for earning asset growth. Advances from the FHLB provide the Bank with an effective means of managing its overall cost of funds as well as a means to manage exposures to interest rate risk.

 

Stockholders' equity increased to $82.2 million at December 31, 2015, from $80.0 million at December 31, 2014. This increase reflects the $4.7 million of net income earned for the year ended December 31, 2015 net of a $721,000 decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income resulting from the mark-to-market adjustment of the available-for-sale securities portfolio, $953,000 of dividend payments, and $908,000 used to acquire 112,144 shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to a previously announced repurchase plan.

 

The tangible equity to assets ratio was 8.04% at December 31, 2015, compared to 8.31% at December 31, 2014. There were 9,489,222 common shares outstanding at December 31, 2015, compared to 9,598,007 shares outstanding at December 31, 2014, reflecting the net effect of shares purchased through the stock repurchase program. The tangible book value per common share increased to $8.02 at December 31, 2015, from $7.67 at December 31, 2014.

 

Key Performance Ratios

 

Some of our key performance ratios are the return on average assets (ROA), the return on average equity (ROE) and the efficiency ratio. ROA is 0.67% for the 2015 fourth quarter, compared with 0.54% for the linked 2015 third quarter and 0.07% for the 2014 fourth quarter. ROE is 7.52% for the 2015 fourth quarter compared with 5.99% for the linked 2015 third quarter and 0.73% for the 2014 fourth quarter. The efficiency ratio (noninterest expenses as a percentage of net interest income plus noninterest income) is 81.41% for the 2015 fourth quarter, compared to 82.26% for the linked 2015 third quarter and 96.31% for the 2014 fourth quarter. The efficiency ratio measures the proportion of net operating revenues that are absorbed by overhead expenses. The performance ratios for the 2014 fourth quarter and year end were adversely impacted by the one-time expenses previously noted.

 

The ROA, ROE and efficiency ratios for the 2015 year were 0.52%, 5.72% and 84.53%, respectively, compared to 0.57%, 5.18% and 79.98%, respectively, for the 2014 year.
