  • Loans held for investment increased $112.0 million from the prior quarter
  • Cost of interest-bearing deposits declined 11 basis points during the quarter to 0.85%

Loans held for investment totaled $9.3 billion at December 31, 2019, reflecting an increase of 1.2% linked-quarter and 5.7% from the prior year. The linked-quarter growth reflects increases in construction and land development, residential mortgage, nonfarm, nonresidential and other real estate secured loans. Acquired loans totaled $72.6 million at December 31, 2019, down $8.4 million from the prior quarter and $34.3 million from the prior year. Collectively, loans held for investment and acquired loans totaled $9.4 billion at the end of the fourth quarter of 2019, up $103.6 million, or 1.1%, from the prior quarter and $465.4 million, or 5.2%, year-over-year.

Deposits totaled $11.2 billion at December 31, 2019, unchanged from the prior quarter and down $118.9 million, or 1.0%, year-over-year. Excluding public fund balances, deposits at December 31, 2019, were unchanged from the prior quarter and up $303.6 million, or 3.3% year-over-year. Interest-bearing deposit costs totaled 0.85% for the fourth quarter, a decrease of 11 basis points linked-quarter. Trustmark continues to maintain an attractive, low-cost deposit base with approximately 58% of deposit balances in checking accounts. The total cost of interest-bearing liabilities was 0.88% for the fourth quarter of 2019.

Trustmark’s capital position remained solid, reflecting the consistent profitability of its diversified financial services businesses. At December 31, 2019, Trustmark’s tangible equity to tangible assets ratio was 9.72%, while the total risk-based capital ratio was 13.25%. During the fourth quarter, Trustmark repurchased $2.2 million, or approximately 64 thousand of its common shares in open market transactions. Trustmark repurchased $56.6 million, or approximately 1.8 million of its common shares in 2019. At December 31, 2019, Trustmark had $80.3 million in remaining authority under its existing stock repurchase program, which expires March 31, 2020.

Today, the Board of Directors authorized a new stock repurchase program, effective April 1, 2020, under which $100 million of Trustmark’s outstanding shares may be acquired through December 31, 2021. The shares may be purchased from time to time at prevailing market prices, through open market or private transactions, depending on market conditions. There is no guarantee as to the number of shares that may be repurchased by Trustmark, and Trustmark may discontinue purchases at any time at management’s discretion.

Credit Quality

  • Nonperforming loans decreased 9.8% and 13.6% from the prior quarter and year-over-year, respectively
  • Other real estate declined 8.5% from the prior quarter and 15.6% year-over-year
  • Allowance for loan losses represented 410.52% of nonperforming loans, excluding specifically reviewed impaired loans

Nonperforming loans totaled $53.2 million at December 31, 2019, down $5.8 million from the prior quarter and $8.4 million year-over-year. Other real estate totaled $29.2 million, reflecting a $2.7 million decrease from the prior quarter and down $5.4 million from the prior year. Collectively, nonperforming assets totaled $82.5 million, reflecting a linked-quarter decrease of 9.4% and a year-over-year decrease of 14.4%.

Allocation of Trustmark’s $84.3 million allowance for loan losses represented 0.98% of commercial loans and 0.61% of consumer and home mortgage loans, resulting in an allowance to total loans held for investment of 0.90% at December 31, 2019, representing a level management considers commensurate with the present risk in the loan portfolio.

Unless otherwise noted, all of the above credit quality metrics exclude acquired loans.

Revenue Generation

  • Noninterest income before negative hedge ineffectiveness totaled $198.6 million in 2019, an increase of $16.1 million, or 8.8%, from the prior year
  • Net interest income (FTE), excluding acquired loans, totaled $431.1 million in 2019, an increase of 3.9% from the prior year
  • The net interest margin (FTE), excluding acquired loans, was 3.58% in 2019, compared to 3.46% in 2018

Revenue in the fourth quarter totaled $153.2 million, down 2.3% from the prior quarter and up 3.0% from the same quarter in the prior year. The linked-quarter decline reflects lower interest income as well as a seasonal reduction in noninterest income. Net interest income (FTE) in the fourth quarter totaled $108.7 million, resulting in a net interest margin of 3.56%. Relative to the prior quarter, net interest income (FTE) decreased $3.0 million as a reduction in interest expense was more than offset by a decline in total interest income. During the fourth quarter of 2019, the yield on acquired loans totaled 10.90% and included $661 thousand in recoveries from the settlement of debt, which represented approximately 3.37% of the annualized total acquired loan yield. Excluding acquired loans, the net interest margin decreased to 3.52% in the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to 3.61% in the prior quarter. The decrease was primarily due to a decline in the yield on the loans held for investment and held for sale portfolio which was partially offset by runoff of maturing investment securities and lower cost of interest-bearing deposits. Net interest income (FTE) in 2019 totaled $439.5 million, resulting in a net interest margin (FTE) of 3.62%; excluding acquired loans, the net interest margin (FTE) was 3.58%.

Noninterest income in the fourth quarter totaled $47.6 million, a decrease of $759 thousand from the prior quarter and an increase of $4.0 million compared to the same quarter in the prior year. The linked-quarter decrease primarily reflects a seasonal decline in insurance commissions. In the fourth quarter, bank card and other fees decreased 1.9% from the prior quarter, and service charges on deposit accounts decreased 1.5%. Other income, net totaled $3.5 million in the fourth quarter, up $1.5 million linked-quarter due to an increase in other miscellaneous income.

Insurance revenue in the fourth quarter totaled $9.4 million, down $1.7 million from the third quarter and $198 thousand from the same quarter in the prior year. The linked-quarter decrease is due to a seasonal decline in commissions. Insurance revenue in 2019 totaled $42.4 million, up 4.7%, or $1.9 million, from the prior year. The solid performance in 2019 reflects improved sales management practices, producer development, and realization of operational efficiencies resulting from investments in technology and processes.

Wealth management revenue totaled $7.8 million in the fourth quarter, in line with the prior quarter and up 3.5% year-over-year. The increase is primarily attributable to higher trust management fees. For the year, wealth management revenue totaled $30.7 million, up 1.1% from the prior year. Trustmark added capabilities and personnel in its Private Banking Group and completed internal reorganizations in 2019 to enhance the competitive positioning of the wealth management segment and streamline business functions.

Mortgage loan production in the fourth quarter totaled $498.5 million, a seasonal decline of 11.9% from the prior quarter and a 64.2% increase year-over-year, partially due to higher refinancing activity and lower interest rates. Mortgage banking income before negative hedge ineffectiveness totaled $10.9 million in the fourth quarter, a decline of $1.0 million from the prior quarter. In 2019, mortgage loan production totaled $1.76 billion, up 25.8% from the prior year. Mortgage banking income before negative hedge ineffectiveness totaled $41.3 million in 2019, an increase of $9.1 million, or 28.1%, from the prior year.

Noninterest Expense

  • Core noninterest expense, which excludes other real estate expense, net and intangible amortization, totaled $107.5 million, up 2.1% from the prior quarter
  • Effective corporate tax rate in 2019 was 13.4%
  • Continued investments to enhance the customer experience and realign delivery channels to support changing customer preferences

Total noninterest expense for the fourth quarter was $110.0 million, up 3.0%, or $3.2 million, from the prior quarter. The increase is primarily due to a $2.1 million increase in other expense. Other expense in the third quarter included a $1.6 million recovery of litigation related expenses. Excluding the impact of this item, other expense increased 4.4%, or $539 thousand, and total noninterest expense increased 1.5%, or $1.6 million, in the fourth quarter. In 2019, noninterest expense totaled $429.0 million, up 3.3% from the prior year.

Core noninterest expense, which excludes other real estate expense, net ($1.5 million) and intangible amortization ($1.0 million), totaled $107.5 million in the fourth quarter, a 2.1% increase from the prior quarter. In 2019, core noninterest expense totaled $421.0 million, an increase of 3.1% from the prior year.

Salaries and employee benefits totaled $62.3 million in the fourth quarter, down $176 thousand from the prior quarter due to seasonally lower insurance commissions. Services and fees rose $662 thousand linked-quarter reflecting continued software investments designed to improve efficiency and customer experience as well as increased advertising expense and increased spending on outside services and fees. Other real estate expense, net increased $960 thousand linked-quarter.

Trustmark has grown and sustained business by understanding and serving its customer base, and in 2019 Trustmark made significant investments to support changing customer preferences and enhance the customer experience. During the year, Trustmark closed five branches and opened two branches featuring a new design that allows for integration of the myTeller® technology and offers more areas of engagement.
