HomeStreet Reports Third Quarter 2023 Results
SEATTLE – October 30, 2023 – (BUSINESS WIRE) – HomeStreet, Inc. (Nasdaq: HMST) (including its consolidated subsidiaries, the "Company", "HomeStreet" or "we"), the parent company of HomeStreet Bank, today announced the financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. As we present non-GAAP measures in this release, the reader should refer to the non-GAAP reconciliations set forth below under the section “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”


Operating Results
                  Third quarter 2023 compared to second quarter 2023
Reported Results:
Net income (loss): $2.3 million compared to $(31.4) million
Earnings (loss) per fully diluted share: $0.12 compared to $(1.67)
Return on Average Equity ("ROAE"): 1.7% compared to (21.7)%
Return on Average Assets ("ROAA"): 0.10% compared to (1.32)%
Net interest margin: 1.74% compared to 1.93%
Efficiency ratio: 98.3% compared to 93.7%
Core Results:(1)
Net income: $2.3 million compared to $3.2 million
Earnings per fully diluted share: $0.12 compared to $0.17
Return on Average Tangible Equity ("ROATE"): 2.2% compared to 2.9%
Return on Average Assets ("ROAA"): 0.10% compared to 0.13%
                                                                                                
(1) Core net income, return on average tangible equity and core return on average assets are non-GAAP measures, for a reconciliation to the nearest comparable GAAP measure see "Non-GAAP financial measures in this earnings release.

“Our operating results for the quarter reflect the continuing adverse impact of the historically record velocity and magnitude of increases in short-term interest rates,” said Mark K. Mason HomeStreet’s Chairman of the Board, President, and Chief Executive Officer. “The high interest rate environment has significantly negatively impacted our net interest margin as well as loan volume in our residential and commercial mortgage banking businesses whose activity continues at historically low levels. To mitigate these challenges, we have reduced controllable expenses where possible, reduced staff to the minimum levels to transact current business volume in a safe and sound manner, raised new deposits through promotional products and focused our new loan origination activity primarily on floating rate products such as commercial loans, residential construction loans and home equity loans. Due to historically low levels of prepayments, our loan portfolio has remained stable even with our reduced level of originations.”


Financial Position
                    As of and for the quarter ended September 30, 2023
Uninsured deposits were $535 million, or 8% of total deposits
Excluding brokered deposits, total deposits decreased $137 million
Loans held for investment ("LHFI"), remained stable
Nonperforming assets to total assets: 0.42%
Allowance for credit losses to LHFI: 0.55%
Book value per share: $26.74
Tangible book value per share: $26.18

“The deposit outflows we have experienced in 2023 were primarily due to depositors seeking higher yields and seasonal tax payments,” Mr. Mason stated. “With noninterest-bearing and low-cost deposits seeking higher yields, we have implemented a strategy to attract new deposits and retain existing deposits through promotional rate certificates of deposit accounts and money market accounts."

"Asset quality remained strong in the third quarter as total past due and nonaccrual loans and nonperforming assets all decreased in the quarter,” added Mr. Mason.” Today, we do not see any meaningful credit challenges on the horizon.”

Other
Declared and paid a cash dividend of $0.10 per share in the third quarter

Results of Operations

Third Quarter of 2023 Compared to the Second Quarter of 2023

Non-core amounts

During the second quarter of 2023, the non-core item is a $39.9 million goodwill impairment charge.

Our net income (loss) and income (loss) before taxes were $2.3 million and $1.4 million, respectively, in the third quarter of 2023, as compared to $(31.4) million and $(36.6) million, respectively, in the second quarter of 2023. Our core net income and core income before taxes in the third quarter of 2023 were $2.3 million and $1.4 million, respectively, as compared to $3.2 million and $3.2 million, respectively, in the second quarter of 2023, which excludes the impact of the goodwill impairment charge. The $1.8 million decrease in core income before taxes was due to lower net interest income which was partially offset by a larger recovery of allowance for credit losses and lower noninterest expense.

The income tax benefit realized in the third quarter of 2023 was due to the recognition of return to accrual differences related to tax exempt income. Our effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2023 of 14.2% was significantly impacted by the goodwill impairment charge, a portion of which was not deductible for tax purposes. Our core income effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2023 was 1.6%, which is lower than our statutory tax rate of 24.7% primarily due to the significantly higher proportion of tax exempt revenues in comparison to our overall core income before tax.

Our net interest income in the third quarter of 2023 was $4.6 million lower than the second quarter of 2023 due to a decrease in our net interest margin from 1.93% to 1.74%. The decrease in our net interest margin was due to a 25 basis point increase in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities caused in part by an increase in the proportion of higher cost borrowings to the total balance of interest-bearing liabilities. The increase in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities was due to overall higher deposit, long term debt and borrowing costs. During the third quarter, the cost of deposits increased 4 basis points during the third quarter, the cost of long term debt increased 15 basis points and the cost of borrowings increased 19 basis points. The increases in the rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities were due to the significant increases in market interest rates during 2023.

A $1.1 million recovery of our allowance for credit losses was recognized during the third quarter of 2023 compared to a $0.4 million recovery of our allowance for credit losses in the second quarter of 2023. The recovery for the third quarter of 2023 was primarily due to reduced levels of higher risk land and development loans which resulted in lower expected losses. The recovery in the second quarter of 2023 reflects a decrease in our unfunded commitment reserve as our allowance for credit losses remained unchanged at $41.5 million and our net charge-offs realized in the quarter were nominal.

Noninterest income in the third quarter of 2023 was consistent with the second quarter of 2023.

The $41.7 million decrease in noninterest expenses in the third quarter of 2023, as compared to the second quarter of 2023 was primarily due to a $39.9 million goodwill impairment charge in the second quarter of 2023.

Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023 Compared to the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022

Non-core amounts

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the non-core item is a $39.9 million goodwill impairment charge.

Our net income (loss) and income (loss) before taxes were $(24.1) million and $(28.7) million, respectively, in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as compared to $58.0 million and $73.5 million, respectively, in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. Our core net income and core income before taxes in the nine months ended September 30, 2023, which excludes the impact of the goodwill impairment charge, was $10.5 million and $11.1 million, as compared to $58.0 million and $73.5 million, respectively, in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The $62.4 million decrease in core income before taxes was due to a lower net interest income, a lower recovery of provision for credit losses and lower noninterest income, partially offset by lower noninterest expense.
Our effective tax rate of 16.2% during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was significantly impacted by the goodwill impairment charge, a portion of which was not deductible for tax purposes. Our core income effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2023 and 2022 was 5.2% and 21.1% respectively, which is lower than our statutory tax rate of 24.7% and 25.3%, respectively, primarily due to the significantly higher proportion of tax exempt revenues in comparison to our overall core income before tax. Our effective tax rate in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was also lower than the statutory rate due to the benefits of tax advantaged investments and reductions in taxes on income related to excess tax benefits resulting from the vesting of stock awards during the period.

Net interest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 decreased $45.9 million as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022 due primarily to a decrease in our net interest margin partially offset by increases in the average balance of interest earning assets. The increase in interest-earning assets was due to loan originations and purchases of investment securities during 2022. Our net interest margin decreased from 3.17% in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to 1.96% in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 due to a 226 basis point increase in the rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities which was partially offset by a 68 basis point increase in the yield on interest earning assets. Yields on interest-earning assets increased as the yields on loan originations during the last two years were higher than the rates of our existing portfolio of loans and yields on adjustable rate loans increased due to increases in the indexes on which their pricing is based. The higher yields on our investment securities were primarily due to adjustments to yields realized from longer estimated lives of certain securities and the yields of securities purchased during the past year being higher than the yields on our existing portfolio. The increase in the rates paid on our interest-bearing liabilities was due to higher deposit costs, higher borrowing costs and an increase in the proportion of higher cost borrowings used as our sources of funding. The increases in the rates paid on deposits were due to the significant increase in market interest rates over the prior year and the decrease in the proportion of noninterest-bearing deposits to total deposits. Our average borrowings increased by $886 million to fund the growth of our loan portfolio and investment securities. Our cost of borrowings increased from 199 basis points during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to 469 basis points during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 due to the significant increase in market interest rates during the last two years.

A $0.9 million recovery of our allowance for credit losses was recognized during the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to a $9.0 million recovery of our allowance for credit losses in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The recovery of our allowance for credit losses in 2023 was the result of economic conditions performing better than expected, improved single-family collateral forecasts, changes in portfolio composition and a decrease in our unfunded commitment reserve offset slightly by deteriorated commercial collateral conditions. The recovery of our allowance for credit losses in 2022 was the result of the favorable performance of our loan portfolio, a stable low level of nonperforming assets and an improved outlook of the estimated impact of COVID-19 on our loan portfolio.

The decrease in noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was due to a decrease in gain on loan origination and sale activities and other income, which was partially offset by higher deposit fees. The $9.0 million decrease in gain on loan origination and sale activities was due to a $5.2 million decrease in single family gain on loan origination and sale activities and a $3.7 million decrease in commercial real estate and commercial and industrial gain on loan origination and sale activities. The decrease in single family gain on loan origination and sale activities was due to a decrease in rate lock volume as a result of the effects of increasing mortgage interest rates. The decrease in commercial real estate and commercial and industrial gain on loan origination and sale activities was primarily due to an 87% decrease in loans sold volume as a result of increasing interest rates. The $2.9 million decrease in other income was primarily due to a $4.3 million gain on sale of branches realized in the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The $1.3 million increase in deposit fee income was primarily due to higher early withdrawals fees.

The $37.4 million increase in noninterest expenses in the nine months ended September 30, 2023 as compared to nine months ended September 30, 2022 was due to a $39.9 million goodwill impairment charge and higher general, administrative and other costs which were partially offset by lower compensation and benefit costs and occupancy costs. The $5.5 million decrease in compensation and benefit costs was primarily due to reduced commission expense on lower loan origination volumes in our single family mortgage operations, lower staffing levels and lower bonus expense, which were partially offset by wage increases given in the first nine months of 2023 and a reduction in deferred costs due to lower levels of loan production. The increase in general, administrative and other costs was primarily due to higher FDIC fees due to our larger asset base, which were partially offset by a reduction in legal fees due to charges related to nonrecurring costs expended on litigation activities and legal matters in the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Financial Position

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, our total assets increased $94 million due primarily to a $154 million increase in cash. Loans held for investment were relatively unchanged as $1.0 billion of originations was offset by prepayments and scheduled payments of $1.0 billion. During the first nine months of 2023 total liabilities increased $154 million due to an increase in borrowings, partially offset by a decrease in deposits. The $706 million decrease in deposits was due to a $473 million decrease in brokered certificates of deposit and a $1.1 billion decrease in non-certificates of deposit balances which were partially offset by a $455 million increase in certificates of deposit balances related to our promotional products. The decrease in deposits was offset by $373 million in deposits that we acquired as part of the branch acquisition in the first quarter of 2023. The $857 million of additional borrowings were used to replace maturing brokered deposits and increase our on-balance sheet cash balances.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance.

In this earnings release, we use the following non-GAAP measures: (i) tangible common equity and tangible assets as we believe this information is consistent with the treatment by bank regulatory agencies, which exclude intangible assets from the calculation of capital ratios; (ii) core income and effective tax rate on core income before taxes, which excludes goodwill impairment charges and the related tax impact as we believe this measure is a better comparison to be used for projecting future results and (iii) an efficiency ratio which is the ratio of noninterest expense to the sum of net interest income and noninterest income, excluding certain items of income or expense and excluding taxes incurred and payable to the state of Washington as such taxes are not classified as income taxes and we believe including them in noninterest expense impacts the comparability of our results to those companies whose operations are in states where assessed taxes on business are classified as income taxes.

These supplemental performance measures may vary from, and may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures provided by other companies in our industry. Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. A non-GAAP financial measure may also be a financial metric that is not required by GAAP or other applicable requirements.

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by providing additional information used by management that is not otherwise required by GAAP or other applicable requirements. Our management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to, these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our operating results and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate a comparison of our performance to prior periods. We believe these measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. In the information below, we have provided reconciliations of, where applicable, the most comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP measures used in this earnings release, or a reconciliation of the non-GAAP calculation of the financial measure.

SEATTLE – October 30, 2023 – (BUSINESS WIRE) – HomeStreet, Inc. (Nasdaq: HMST) (including its consolidated subsidiaries, the "Company", "HomeStreet" or "we"), the parent company of HomeStreet Bank, today announced the financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. As we present non-GAAP measures in this release, the reader should refer to the non-GAAP reconciliations set forth below under the section “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.”


Operating Results
                  Third quarter 2023 compared to second quarter 2023
Reported Results:
Net income (loss): $2.3 million compared to $(31.4) million
Earnings (loss) per fully diluted share: $0.12 compared to $(1.67)
Return on Average Equity ("ROAE"): 1.7% compared to (21.7)%
Return on Average Assets ("ROAA"): 0.10% compared to (1.32)%
Net interest margin: 1.74% compared to 1.93%
Efficiency ratio: 98.3% compared to 93.7%

Return on Average Tangible Equity ("ROATE"): 2.2% compared to 2.9%
Return on Average Assets ("ROAA"): 0.10% compared to 0.13%
                                                                                                
(1) Core net income, return on average tangible equity and core return on average assets are non-GAAP measures, for a reconciliation to the nearest comparable GAAP measure see "Non-GAAP financial measures in this earnings release.

“Our operating results for the quarter reflect the continuing adverse impact of the historically record velocity and magnitude of increases in short-term interest rates,” said Mark K. Mason HomeStreet’s Chairman of the Board, President, and Chief Executive Officer. “The high interest rate environment has significantly negatively impacted our net interest margin as well as loan volume in our residential and commercial mortgage banking businesses whose activity continues at historically low levels. To mitigate these challenges, we have reduced controllable expenses where possible, reduced staff to the minimum levels to transact current business volume in a safe and sound manner, raised new deposits through promotional products and focused our new loan origination activity primarily on floating rate products such as commercial loans, residential construction loans and home equity loans. Due to historically low levels of prepayments, our loan portfolio has remained stable even with our reduced level of originations.”


Financial Position
                    As of and for the quarter ended September 30, 2023
Uninsured deposits were $535 million, or 8% of total deposits
Excluding brokered deposits, total deposits decreased $137 million
Loans held for investment ("LHFI"), remained stable
Nonperforming assets to total assets: 0.42%
Allowance for credit losses to LHFI: 0.55%
Book value per share: $26.74
Tangible book value per share: $26.18



“The deposit outflows we have experienced in 2023 were primarily due to depositors seeking higher yields and seasonal tax payments,” Mr. Mason stated. “With noninterest-bearing and low-cost deposits seeking higher yields, we have implemented a strategy to attract new deposits and retain existing deposits through promotional rate certificates of deposit accounts and money market accounts.”

"Asset quality remained strong in the third quarter as total past due and nonaccrual loans and nonperforming assets all decreased in the quarter,” added Mr. Mason.” Today, we do not see any meaningful credit challenges on the horizon.”

Other
Declared and paid a cash dividend of $0.10 per share in the third quarter

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, we use certain non-GAAP measures of financial performance.

In this press release, we use the following non-GAAP measures: (i) tangible common equity and tangible assets as we believe this information is consistent with the treatment by bank regulatory agencies, which exclude intangible assets from the calculation of capital ratios; (ii) core income and effective tax rate on core income before taxes, which excludes goodwill impairment charges and the related tax impact as we believe this measure is a better comparison to be used for projecting future results and (iii) an efficiency ratio which is the ratio of noninterest expense to the sum of net interest income and noninterest income, excluding certain items of income or expense and excluding taxes incurred and payable to the state of Washington as such taxes are not classified as income taxes and we believe including them in noninterest expense impacts the comparability of our results to those companies whose operations are in states where assessed taxes on business are classified as income taxes.

These supplemental performance measures may vary from, and may not be comparable to, similarly titled measures provided by other companies in our industry. Non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with, or an alternative for, GAAP. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. A non-GAAP financial measure may also be a financial metric that is not required by GAAP or other applicable requirements.

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by providing additional information used by management that is not otherwise required by GAAP or other applicable requirements. Our management uses, and believes that investors benefit from referring to, these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our operating results and when planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate a comparison of our performance to prior periods. We believe these measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, not as a substitute for or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. In the information below, we have provided reconciliations of, where applicable, the most comparable GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP measures used in this earnings release, or a reconciliation of the non-GAAP calculation of the financial measure.
