Solid performance marked by higher revenues
and strong deposit generation
Independent Bank Corp. (Nasdaq Global Select Market: INDB),
parent of Rockland Trust Company, today announced 2024 second
quarter net income of $51.3 million, or $1.21 per diluted share,
compared to 2024 first quarter net income of $47.8 million, or
$1.12 per diluted share.
The Company generated a return on average assets of 1.07% and a
return on average common equity of 7.10% for the second quarter of
2024, as compared to 1.00% and 6.63%, respectively, for the prior
quarter.
“Our second quarter results reflect positive momentum in all of
the core components that drive the Company’s financial performance.
Despite persistent uncertainty in the broader macroeconomic
environment, our colleagues’ steadfast focus on each relationship
remains the backbone of our success,” said Jeffrey Tengel, the
Chief Executive Officer of Independent Bank Corp. and Rockland
Trust Company.
BALANCE SHEET
Total assets of $19.4 billion at June 30, 2024 increased $86.4
million, or 0.4%, from the prior quarter and reflect a healthy
remix of assets from securities into loans when compared to June
30, 2023 levels.
Total loans at June 30, 2024 of $14.4 billion increased by $70.3
million, or 0.5% (2.0% annualized), compared to the prior quarter
level. On the commercial side, loan growth was primarily driven by
an increase in the commercial and industrial portfolio, an area of
increased emphasis, which increased $22.7 million, or 1.4% (5.8%
annualized), while the combined commercial real estate and
construction loans outstanding were essentially flat. Commercial
loan pipelines remained healthy at quarter end. The small business
portfolio also continued its steady growth, rising by 2.9% during
the second quarter of 2024, while the total consumer portfolio
increased $39.2 million, or 1.1% (4.4% annualized) from the prior
quarter, reflecting strong overall closing activity and increased
home equity utilization.
Deposit balances rose to $15.4 billion at June 30, 2024,
representing growth of $366.4 million, or 2.4%, from March 31,
2024. This increase was experienced across all segments, with
municipal deposits comprising the majority of the growth. Though
some level of product remixing persists, overall core deposits
represented 81.9% of total deposits at June 30, 2024, as compared
to 83.2% at March 31, 2024, with total noninterest bearing demand
deposits comprising 28.7% of total deposits at June 30, 2024,
versus 29.7% at March 31, 2024. The total cost of deposits for the
second quarter increased 17 basis points to 1.65% compared to the
prior quarter.
In conjunction with deposit growth during the quarter, total
borrowings declined by $332.0 million, or 32.4%, during the second
quarter of 2024, driven by a reduction in Federal Home Loan Bank
(“FHLB”) borrowings. The overall cost of funding increased 8 basis
points as compared to 23 basis points in the prior quarter, as
ongoing increases in deposit costs were mitigated by reductions in
wholesale borrowing costs.
The securities portfolio decreased by $80.0 million, or 2.8%,
compared to March 31, 2024, driven primarily by paydowns and
maturities, offset in part by unrealized gains of $5.4 million in
the available for sale portfolio. Total securities represented
14.2% of total assets at June 30, 2024, as compared to 14.7% at
March 31, 2024.
Stockholders’ equity at June 30, 2024 increased $35.0 million,
or 1.2%, compared to March 31, 2024, driven primarily by strong
earnings retention as well as unrealized gains on the available for
sale investment securities portfolio included in other
comprehensive income. The Company’s ratio of common equity to
assets of 15.04% at June 30, 2024 represented an increase of 12
basis points from March 31, 2024 and an increase of 32 basis points
from June 30, 2023. The Company’s book value per share increased by
$0.80, or 1.2%, to $68.74 at June 30, 2024 as compared to the prior
quarter. The Company’s tangible book value per share at June 30,
2024 rose by $0.85, or 1.9%, from the prior quarter to $45.19, and
has grown by 7.9% from the year ago period. The Company’s ratio of
tangible common equity to tangible assets of 10.42% at June 30,
2024 represented an increase of 15 basis points from the prior
quarter and an increase of 37 basis points from the year ago
period. Please refer to Appendix A for a detailed reconciliation
of Non-GAAP balance sheet metrics.
NET INTEREST INCOME
Net interest income for the second quarter of 2024 increased
slightly to $137.9 million as compared to $137.4 million for the
prior quarter, due to modest loan growth and a slightly improved
net interest margin. The net interest margin of 3.25% increased 2
basis points when compared to the prior quarter, driven primarily
by higher loan yields, securities cash flow deployment, and
maturing loan hedges, offset by increased funding costs.
NONINTEREST INCOME
Noninterest income of $32.3 million for the second quarter of
2024 represented an increase of $2.4 million, or 8.0%, as compared
to the prior quarter. Significant changes in noninterest income for
the second quarter of 2024 compared to the prior quarter included
the following:
- Interchange and ATM fees increased by $301,000, or 6.8%, driven
by increased transaction volume during the second quarter of
2024.
- Investment management and advisory income increased by $1.0
million, or 10.5%, primarily driven by seasonal tax preparation
fees and insurance commissions, as well as an increase in total
assets under administration, which rose by $66.6 million, or 1.0%,
to a record level of $6.9 billion at June 30, 2024.
- Mortgage banking income grew by $524,000, or 65.8%, driven
primarily by a higher volume of sold originations during the
quarter.
- The Company received proceeds on life insurance policies
resulting in a gain of $263,000 during the first quarter of 2024,
while no such gains were recognized during the second quarter of
2024.
- Loan level derivative income rose by $393,000, reflecting an
increase from lower prior quarter levels.
- Other noninterest income increased by $210,000, or 3.4%, driven
primarily by outsized loan fees and FHLB dividend income, partially
offset by reduced gains on equity securities.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Noninterest expense of $99.6 million for the second quarter of
2024 represented a decrease of $273,000, or 0.3%, as compared to
the prior quarter. Significant changes in noninterest expense for
the second quarter compared to the prior quarter included the
following:
- Salaries and employee benefits were essentially flat as
compared to the prior quarter, as increased commissions, equity
compensation and medical plan insurance were offset by an outsized
benefit related to the valuation of the Company’s split-dollar
bank-owned life insurance policies.
- Occupancy and equipment expenses decreased by $995,000, or
7.4%, due mainly to seasonal decreases in snow removal and
utilities costs.
- FDIC assessment decreased $288,000, or 9.7%, from the prior
quarter, driven primarily by the FDIC special assessment recognized
by the Company.
- Other noninterest expense increased by $1.1 million, or 4.6%,
due primarily to increases in advertising costs, director equity
compensation granted during the quarter, professional fees, and
subscriptions, partially offset by decreased debit card expenses
and card issuance costs.
The Company’s tax rate for the second quarter of 2024 decreased
to 22.69%, compared to 23.56% for the prior quarter, primarily due
to the timing of discrete items.
ASSET QUALITY
The second quarter provision for credit losses was $4.3 million
as compared to $5.0 million for the first quarter of 2024 and was
largely attributable to specific reserve allocations on existing
nonperforming loans. Net charge-offs remained minimal at $339,000
for the second quarter of 2024, as compared to $274,000 for the
prior quarter, representing 0.01% of average loans annualized for
each respective quarter. Nonperforming loans also stayed relatively
flat at $57.5 million at June 30, 2024, as compared to $56.9
million at March 31, 2024 and represented 0.40% of total loans at
each respective period. Delinquencies as a percentage of total
loans decreased 15 basis points from the prior quarter to 0.37% at
June 30, 2024.
The allowance for credit losses on total loans increased to
$150.9 million at June 30, 2024 compared to $146.9 million at March
31, 2024, and represented 1.05% and 1.03% of total loans, at June
30, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively.

are not limited to:
- adverse economic conditions in the regional and local economies

market, including the possibility that the Company will have to
devote significant resources to attract and retain qualified
personnel;
- the instability or volatility in financial markets and
unfavorable domestic or global general economic, political or
business conditions, whether caused by geopolitical concerns,
including the Russia/Ukraine conflict, the conflict in Israel and
surrounding areas and the possible expansion of such conflicts,
changes in U.S. and international trade policies, or other factors,
and the potential impact of such factors on the Company and its
customers, including the potential for decreases in deposits and
loan demand, unanticipated loan delinquencies, loss of collateral
and decreased service revenues;
- unanticipated loan delinquencies, loss of collateral, decreased
service revenues, and other potential negative effects on the

- acquisitions may not produce results at levels or within time
frames originally anticipated and may result in unforeseen
integration issues or impairment of goodwill and/or other
intangibles;
- the effect of laws, regulations, new requirements or
expectations, or additional regulatory oversight in the highly
regulated financial services industry, including as a result of
intensified regulatory scrutiny in the aftermath of recent bank

heightened regulatory expectations, increased costs of compliance
or required adjustments to strategy;
- changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws,
including interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System;
- higher than expected tax expense, including as a result of
failure to comply with general tax laws and changes in tax
laws;
- increased competition in the Company’s market areas, including
competition that could impact deposit gathering, retention of
deposits and the cost of deposits, increased competition due to the
demand for innovative products and service offerings, and
competition from non-depository institutions which may be subject
to fewer regulatory constraints and lower cost structures;
- a deterioration in the conditions of the securities
markets;
- a deterioration of the credit rating for U.S. long-term
sovereign debt or uncertainties surrounding the federal
budget;
- inability to adapt to changes in information technology,
including changes to industry accepted delivery models driven by a
migration to the internet as a means of service delivery, including

services industry, especially in the commercial banking
sector;

concerning taxes, banking, securities and insurance) generally
applicable to the Company’s business and the associated costs of

disruptions of the Company’s operating systems, including systems
that are customer facing, and adversely impact the Company’s
business;
- any unexpected material adverse changes in the Company’s
operations or earnings.
The Company wishes to caution readers not to place undue
reliance on any forward-looking statements as the Company’s
business and its forward-looking statements involve substantial
known and unknown risks and uncertainties described in the
Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly
Reports on Form 10-Q (“Risk Factors”). Except as required by law,
the Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update publicly
any such forward-looking statements, whether in response to new
information, future events or otherwise. Any public statements or
disclosures by the Company following this release which modify or
impact any of the forward-looking statements contained in this
release will be deemed to modify or supersede such statements in
this release. In addition to the information set forth in this
press release, you should carefully consider the Risk Factors.
This press release and the appendices attached to it contain
financial information determined by methods other than in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America (“GAAP”). This information may include
operating net income and operating earnings per share (“EPS”),
operating return on average assets, operating return on average
common equity, operating return on average tangible common equity,
core net interest margin (“core margin”), tangible book value per
share and the tangible common equity ratio.
Management reviews its core margin to determine any items that
may impact the net interest margin that may be one-time in nature
or not reflective of its core operating environment, such as
significant purchase accounting adjustments or other adjustments
such as nonaccrual interest reversals/recoveries and prepayment
penalties. Management believes that adjusting for these items to
arrive at a core margin provides additional insight into the
operating environment and how management decisions impact the net
interest margin.
Management also supplements its evaluation of financial
performance with analysis of tangible book value per share (which
is computed by dividing stockholders’ equity less goodwill and
identifiable intangible assets, or “tangible common equity,” by
common shares outstanding), the tangible common equity ratio (which
is computed by dividing tangible common equity by “tangible
assets,” defined as total assets less goodwill and other
intangibles), and return on average tangible common equity (which
is computed by dividing net income by average tangible common
equity). The Company has included information on tangible book
value per share, the tangible common equity ratio and return on
average tangible common equity because management believes that
investors may find it useful to have access to the same analytical
tools used by management. As a result of merger and acquisition
activity, the Company has recognized goodwill and other intangible
assets in conjunction with business combination accounting
principles. Excluding the impact of goodwill and other intangibles
in measuring asset and capital values for the ratios provided,
along with other bank standard capital ratios, provides a framework
to compare the capital adequacy of the Company to other companies
in the financial services industry.
These non-GAAP measures should not be viewed as a substitute for
operating results and other financial measures determined in
accordance with GAAP. An item which management excludes when
computing these non-GAAP measures can be of substantial importance
to the Company’s results for any particular quarter or year. The
Company’s non-GAAP performance measures, including operating net
income, operating EPS, operating return on average assets,
operating return on average common equity, core margin, tangible
book value per share and the tangible common equity ratio, are not
necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may
be presented by other companies.
