Howard Bancorp, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2019 Results

BALTIMORE–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Howard Bancorp, Inc. (“Howard Bancorp” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: HBMD), the parent company of Howard Bank (“Howard Bank” or the “Bank”), today reported its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. A summary of results and other developments during the third quarter of 2019 is as follows:

  • Net income was $4.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $2.1 million for the three month period ended June 30, 2019, and $4.0 million for the third quarter of 2018. This represented earnings of $0.24 per basic and diluted common share for the three months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $0.11 per share for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and $0.21 per share for the third quarter of 2018. Pretax income for the third quarter of 2019 was reduced due to a pending $700 thousand charge related to the confidential settlement of a legal suit stemming from mortgages originated at First Mariner Bank prior to its recapitalization in 2014. The second quarter of 2019 pretax income was reduced by $3.6 million with the execution of our previously disclosed branch optimization initiative. The $700 thousand decrease in third quarter 2019 and the $3.6 million decrease in second quarter pretax income, net of tax, reduced basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) by $0.03 and $0.14 respectively leading to operating EPS of $0.27 in the third quarter of 2019 and $0.25 in the second quarter of 2019. The following table summarizes our key performance metrics:

Year to date operating noninterest income is $658 thousand less than reported noninterest income to exclude a gain on the sale of securities of $658 thousand recorded in the second quarter of 2019.

(2)

Year to date operating noninterest expense is $5.0 million less than the reported noninterest expense to exclude (i) the $3.6 million of occupancy expenses associated primarily from the remaining lease liability of closing branch locations (ii) a $651,000 penalty from the FHLB for the early repayment of advances associated with a realignment of the securities portfolio incurred in the second quarter of 2019 iii) the $700 thousand charge related to a pending confidential legal settlement recorded in the third quarter of 2019.

(3)

Operating results exclude the impact of revenues and/or expenses associated with second quarter initiatives regarding branch delivery optimization, the sale of investment securities and the restructuring of debt obligations, and the long standing legal case and is a non-GAAP financial measure.

  • Total assets at September 30, 2019 were $2.3 billion, unchanged from total assets at June 30, 2019 as the Bank directed assets from the lower yielding securities portfolio to a higher yielding loan portfolio. During the third quarter of 2019, we reduced cash levels by $50 million while increasing our investment portfolio by $15 million, our mortgage loans held for sale by $9 million, and our loan portfolio by $29 million. The net portfolio loans growth of $29 million or 1.7% during the third quarter of 2019, or just under 7% on an annualized basis, increased loans from $1.70 billion at June 30, 2019 to just under $1.73 billion at September 30, 2019. Our three core commercial loan categories, Construction, Commercial Real Estate and C&I collectively increased by $31.3 million or 2.7% during the quarter (or nearly 11% annualized growth), while residential and consumer loans declined by $2.5 million.
  • Total deposit levels of $1.66 billion decreased by $62 million during the third quarter of 2019, as we reduced institutional CD’s by $63 million while increasing our FHLB borrowings by $57 million. This shift between two non-customer sources of funding was undertaken to reduce the overall cost of these funds. Excluding this shift, our customer sources of total deposits were basically unchanged when comparing September 30, 2019 to June 30, 2019. However the composition of our customer deposits shifted during the third quarter as transaction deposits increased by $11 million or 1.8% during the third quarter, while our more costly money market and CD deposits declined by $9 million. As a result, our transaction deposits of $617 million at September 30, 2019 represented 37.3% of our total deposits compared to 35.3% at June 30, 2019.
  • Total common shareholders’ equity increased by $5.3 million or 2%, from $303.5 million at June 30, 2019 to $308.8 million at September 30, 2019. Late in the second quarter of 2019, Howard Bancorp announced a share buyback program that will allow the Company to purchase up to $7 million in common shares if deemed beneficial to the Company’s long-term value. Because of an increase in the market value of the Company’s common shares, fewer than 5 thousand shares were repurchased during the third quarter of 2019.

For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2019

Interest income of $23.0 million for the third quarter of 2019 decreased by $190 thousand or under 1 percent from the $23.1 million recorded in the second quarter of 2019. Although the quarterly average balance of our portfolio loans increased by $36.7 million or 2.2% for the third quarter of 2019 compared to the second quarter, the yield on our loan portfolio declined by 15 basis points primarily due to two prime rate reductions during the third quarter. Howard Bank’s fixed rate loans mitigated the impact of the two prime rate changes totaling 50bps during the third quarter. Higher yielding loans also continued to pay-down or payoff in the present declining rate environment. Also impacting the third quarter interest income was a $35.7 million reduction in the quarterly average balance of our investment portfolio for the third quarter given the sale of $35 million in securities executed late in June of 2019. This transfer of assets as noted earlier mitigated the margin impact of lower market rates, however, overall average earning assets were only $1 million higher for the third quarter compared to the second quarter, while the yield on our earning assets declined from 4.71% for the second quarter to 4.62% for the third quarter.

Interest expense was $5.8 million for both the third quarter of 2019 and the second quarter of 2019. Similarly, the cost of interest bearing liabilities was unchanged at 1.54% for both the second and third quarters of 2019.

Overall, driven by the declining rate environment, the net interest income of $17.2 million for the third quarter of 2019 was essentially flat compared to the $17.4 million in the second quarter of 2019. The declining rate environment modestly impacted the net interest margin (“NIM”) with a NIM of 3.46% for the third quarter of 2019 compared to the second quarter NIM of 3.53%. Fair market value adjustments on acquired loan portfolios continued to have a modest and declining impact on the margin of 7 bps in the third quarter.

The following table represents the NIM as reported each quarter, and the more stable NIM excluding the impact of the additional interest income due to the purchase accounting measures:

The core NIM excludes the impact of purchase accounting adjustments on net interest income and is a non-GAAP financial measure. For a reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to its comparable GAAP measure, see “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures” at the end of this release.

Our provision for credit losses for the third quarter of 2019 of $608 thousand returned to more historically normalized levels compared to the second quarter provision of $1.1 million and the $1.7 million provision recorded for the first quarter of 2019. The provision for the third quarter was influenced by $130 thousand in net charge-offs for the quarter and the growth in the loan portfolio. The second quarter provision was increased by an unexpected charge-off of nearly $300 thousand resulting from a claim on the guaranteed portion of an SBA loan that was denied, while the first quarter provision was the result of a large charge-off of a loan that had been reserved during 2018. That loan has subsequently been sold at no additional loss.

Asset quality management has resulted in a stabilization of the ratio of non-performing loans to total loans which was 1.15% for both June 30, 2019 and September 30, 2019, and the ratio of non-performing assets to total assets declined slightly from 1.05% to 1.04% at the same dates.

Third quarter 2019 noninterest revenues of $5.0 million were $800 thousand or 13% lower than the $5.8 million recorded in the second quarter of 2019. However excluding the $658 thousand gain on the sale of securities recorded in the second quarter, the third quarter noninterest revenues declined by only $150 thousand compared to the second quarter. Service charges and other core banking noninterest income for the third quarter were $95 thousand higher than the second quarter, while mortgage related revenues for the third quarter were $245 thousand lower.

Our total noninterest expenses of $15.4 million for the third quarter of 2019 represent a $4.1 million decrease from the $19.5 million of expenses in the second quarter of 2019. As described above, the third quarter of 2019 included $700 thousand in expenses from charges related to the confidential settlement, while the second quarter 2019 expenses included $3.6 million in expenses related to the costs of our branch delivery optimization initiatives as well as $651 thousand of expense related to the early prepayment of a few higher rate FHLB advances. Excluding the impact of these items, total expenses for the third quarter were $14.7 million, which was $457 thousand or 3.0% lower than the $15.2 million for the second quarter of 2019. Third quarter compensation expenses were $333 thousand lower than the second quarter primarily from lower employment tax and benefit costs, occupancy costs were approximately $100 thousand lower mostly due to the branch reductions, while FDIC insurance expenses were $245 thousand lower as we were able to utilize an assessment credit during the quarter instead of having to make our normal quarterly assessment payment. The full results of the branch optimization announced in the second quarter will become more apparent in the fourth quarter as the closed locations continued to operate for most of the third quarter due to customer notification requirements.

Chairman and CEO Mary Ann Scully noted, “The third quarter of 2019 showed continued growth in our core commercial banking activities with over 11% annualized growth in commercial loans, funded to a larger extent by low cost transaction deposits consistent with our strategy. The expense level of the Bank reflected the ongoing emphasis on scale enabled efficiency. These focused revenue and funding activities combined with structural resource allocation help to sustain improved returns. Our consistent profitability combined with very strong capital levels led us to initiate a modest share buyback program late in the second quarter of 2019 with repurchase activities expected to accelerate in order to support improved market valuations.

“The Bank’s ability to cover all growth markets in our footprint with 46% fewer branches than in March of 2018 will lead to significant efficiency gains starting in the fourth quarter and beyond while these improvements in our branch delivery network are also strategically more consistent with customer behaviors. We have recently renegotiated a core data processing contract resulting in not only high six figure savings annually, but also improved access to better reporting systems for the bank and its commercial clients. In addition to increasing efficiencies, this allows for the investment of certain financial resources into those higher growth commercial activities in the areas of our market that are currently experiencing significant disruption due to industry consolidation, management turnover and numerous denovo banking activities. The disruption that is occurring and is expected to accelerate creates a helpful tailwind for us.

“The company is optimistic about our ability to not only navigate but to differentiate ourselves in a very challenging interest rate and competitive environment. We are confident in successful execution of these multiple strategic activities that are all designed to leverage our position as the largest locally headquartered and only commercially focused bank in our region.”
