Quarterly Highlights

Earnings

  • Net income for the second quarter of 2024 was $38.8 million; diluted EPS and adjusted diluted EPS (non-GAAP)(1) were each $0.69
  • Net interest income (fully tax equivalent) for the second quarter of 2024 was $127.6 million, up $1.7 million on a linked quarter basis
  • For the second quarter of 2024, net interest margin was 3.31%, up 1 basis point on a linked quarter basis
  • Cost of total deposits was 2.47% for the second quarter of 2024, up 12 basis points on a linked quarter basis
  • Noninterest income decreased $2.6 million on a linked quarter basis primarily due to a decrease in mortgage banking income. During the first quarter of 2024, the Company sold a portion of its mortgage servicing rights (“MSR”), recognizing a gain of $3.5 million with no such sale in the second quarter of 2024
  • Mortgage banking income decreased $1.7 million on a linked quarter basis. Excluding the gain recognized in the first quarter on the sale of a portion of Renasant's MSR, mortgage banking income increased $1.8 million on a linked quarter basis. The mortgage division generated $0.6 billion in interest rate lock volume in the second quarter of 2024, an increase of $0.2 billion on a linked quarter basis. Gain on sale margin was 1.69% for the second quarter of 2024, down 9 basis points on a linked quarter basis.
  • Noninterest expense decreased $0.9 million on a linked quarter basis. Excluding the effect of certain charitable contributions and FDIC special assessment expense incurred in the first quarter, noninterest expense increased approximately $0.8 million on a linked quarter basis. Seasonality in our mortgage division resulted in higher levels of expense driven from increased volumes. These expenses were slightly offset by savings in other areas

Balance Sheet

  • Loans increased $104.2 million on a linked quarter basis, representing 3.4% annualized net loan growth
  • Securities decreased $39.2 million on a linked quarter basis due to net cash outflows during the quarter of $43.1 million and a positive fair market value adjustment in our available-for-sale portfolio of $3.9 million
  • Deposits at June 30, 2024 increased $18.1 million on a linked quarter basis. Brokered deposits decreased $183.7 million on a linked quarter basis to $158.6 million at June 30, 2024. Noninterest bearing deposits increased $23.3 million on a linked quarter basis and represented 24.8% of total deposits at June 30, 2024

Capital and Liquidity

  • Book value per share and tangible book value per share (non-GAAP)(1) increased 1.3% and 2.4%, respectively, on a linked quarter basis
  • The Company has a $100 million stock repurchase program that is in effect through October 2024; there was no buyback activity during the second quarter of 2024

Credit Quality

  • The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $3.3 million for the second quarter of 2024, compared to $2.4 million for the first quarter of 2024
  • The ratio of allowance for credit losses on loans to total loans was 1.59% at June 30, 2024 compared to 1.61% at March 31, 2024
  • The coverage ratio, or the allowance for credit losses on loans to nonperforming loans, was 203.88% at June 30, 2024, compared to 270.87% at March 31, 2024
  • Net loan charge-offs for the second quarter of 2024 were $5.5 million, or 0.18% of average loans on an annualized basis
  • Nonperforming loans to total loans increased to 0.78% at June 30, 2024 compared to 0.59% at March 31, 2024, and criticized loans (which include classified and special mention loans) to total loans decreased to 2.62% at June 30, 2024, compared to 2.76% at March 31, 2024

Sale of Renasant Insurance

  • Effective July 1, 2024, Renasant sold the assets of its insurance agency for cash proceeds to Renasant Bank of $56.4 million, recognizing an estimated after-tax impact to earnings of $36.4 million, which is net of estimated merger-related expenses. The financial effects of the sale will be reflected in the third quarter of 2024

ABOUT RENASANT CORPORATION:

Renasant Corporation is the parent of Renasant Bank, a 120-year-old financial services institution. Renasant has assets of approximately $17.5 billion and operates 185 banking, lending, mortgage and wealth management offices throughout the Southeast as well as offering factoring and asset-based lending on a nationwide basis.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS:

This press release may contain, or incorporate by reference, statements about Renasant Corporation that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Statements preceded by, followed by or that otherwise include the words “believes,” “expects,” “projects,” “anticipates,” “intends,” “estimates,” “plans,” “potential,” “focus,” “possible,” “may increase,” “may fluctuate,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions, or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “should,” “would” and “could,” are generally forward-looking in nature and not historical facts. Forward-looking statements include information about the Company’s future financial performance, business strategy, projected plans and objectives and are based on the current beliefs and expectations of management. The Company’s management believes these forward-looking statements are reasonable, but they are all inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change. Actual results may differ from those indicated or implied in the forward-looking statements, and such differences may be material. Prospective investors are cautioned that any forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks and uncertainties and, accordingly, investors should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made.

Important factors currently known to management that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking statements include the following: (i) the Company’s ability to efficiently integrate acquisitions into its operations, retain the customers of these businesses, grow the acquired operations and realize the cost savings expected from an acquisition to the extent and in the timeframe anticipated by management; (ii) the effect of economic conditions and interest rates on a national, regional or international basis; (iii) timing and success of the implementation of changes in operations to achieve enhanced earnings or effect cost savings; (iv) competitive pressures in the consumer finance, commercial finance, financial services, asset management, retail banking, factoring and mortgage lending and auto lending industries; (v) the financial resources of, and products available from, competitors; (vi) changes in laws and regulations as well as changes in accounting standards; (vii) changes in policy by regulatory agencies; (viii) changes in the securities and foreign exchange markets; (ix) the Company’s potential growth, including its entrance or expansion into new markets, and the need for sufficient capital to support that growth; (x) changes in the quality or composition of the Company’s loan or investment portfolios, including adverse developments in borrower industries or in the repayment ability of individual borrowers or issuers of investment securities, or the impact of interest rates on the value of our investment securities portfolio; (xi) an insufficient allowance for credit losses as a result of inaccurate assumptions; (xii) changes in the sources and costs of the capital we use to make loans and otherwise fund our operations, due to deposit outflows, changes in the mix of deposits and the cost and availability of borrowings; (xiii) general economic, market or business conditions, including the impact of inflation; (xiv) changes in demand for loan products and financial services; (xv) concentration of deposit and credit exposure; (xvi) changes or the lack of changes in interest rates, yield curves and interest rate spread relationships; (xvii) increased cybersecurity risk, including potential network breaches, business disruptions or financial losses; (xviii) civil unrest, natural disasters, epidemics and other catastrophic events in the Company’s geographic area; (xix) the impact, extent and timing of technological changes; and (xx) other circumstances, many of which are beyond management’s control.

Management believes that the assumptions underlying the Company’s forward-looking statements are reasonable, but any of the assumptions could prove to be inaccurate. Investors are urged to carefully consider the risks described in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) from time to time, including its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which are available at www.renasant.com and the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. 

The Company undertakes no obligation, and specifically disclaims any obligation, to update or revise forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information or to reflect changed assumptions, the occurrence of unanticipated events or changes to future operating results over time, except as required by federal securities laws.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES:

In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”), this press release and the presentation slides furnished to the SEC on the same Form 8-K as this release contain non-GAAP financial measures, namely, (i) adjusted loan yield, (ii) adjusted net interest income and margin, (iii) pre-provision net revenue (including on an as-adjusted basis), (iv) adjusted net income, (v) adjusted diluted earnings per share, (vi) tangible book value per share, (vii) the tangible common equity ratio, (viii) certain performance ratios (namely, the ratio of pre-provision net revenue to average assets, the return on average assets and on average equity, and the return on average tangible assets and on average tangible common equity (including each of the foregoing on an as-adjusted basis)), and (ix) the adjusted efficiency ratio.

These non-GAAP financial measures adjust GAAP financial measures to exclude intangible assets, including related amortization, and/or certain gains or charges (although, for the second quarter of 2024, there were no excluded gains or charges), with respect to which the Company is unable to accurately predict when these charges will be incurred or, when incurred, the amount thereof. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures when evaluating capital utilization and adequacy. In addition, the Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate the making of period-to-period comparisons and are meaningful indicators of its operating performance, particularly because these measures are widely used by industry analysts for companies with merger and acquisition activities. Also, because intangible assets such as goodwill and the core deposit intangible can vary extensively from company to company and, as to intangible assets, are excluded from the calculation of a financial institution’s regulatory capital, the Company believes that the presentation of this non-GAAP financial information allows readers to more easily compare the Company’s results to information provided in other regulatory reports and the results of other companies. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the tables below under the caption “Non-GAAP Reconciliations”.

None of the non-GAAP financial information that the Company has included in this release or the accompanying presentation slides are intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for any measure prepared in accordance with GAAP. Investors should note that, because there are no standardized definitions for the calculations as well as the results, the Company’s calculations may not be comparable to similarly titled measures presented by other companies. Also, there may be limits in the usefulness of these measures to investors. As a result, the Company encourages readers to consider its consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
