Atlantic Union Bankshares Reports Third Quarter Results

RICHMOND, Va., Oct. 17, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Atlantic Union Bankshares Corporation (the “Company” or “Atlantic Union”) (Nasdaq: AUB) today reported net income of $53.2 million and earnings per share of $0.65 for its third quarter ended September 30, 2019. Net operating earnings(1) were $56.1 million and operating earnings per share(1) were $0.69 for its third quarter ended September 30, 2019; these operating results exclude $1.9 million in after-tax merger and $895,000 in after-tax rebranding-related costs.

Net income was $137.7 million and earnings per share were $1.72 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Net operating earnings(1) were $163.7 million and operating earnings per share(1) were $2.04 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019; these operating results exclude $21.6 million in after-tax merger and $4.4 million in after-tax rebranding-related costs but include after tax losses from discontinued operations of $128,000 and approximately $1.0 million in after-tax expenses related to branch closure costs.

“Atlantic Union delivered solid financial results in the third quarter despite the challenges of the current interest rate environment,” said John C. Asbury, President and Chief Executive Officer for the Company. “As in the first and second quarters of 2019, third quarter results were noisy as we worked toward completing the Access National Bank integration work and our rebranding efforts and took strategic actions that impacted our reported quarterly financial results such as repositioning the balance sheet for lower interest rates. Nevertheless, the Company continues to perform well and remains committed to deliver on our previously communicated financial performance targets.

“October marks my three-year anniversary of having joined the Company and the considerable enthusiasm and optimism I felt walking in the door is now greater still. It has been an exciting transformation we have experienced, and continue to experience. The future looks bright for Atlantic Union as we set out to execute the next phase of our strategic plan.”

    • The Company recorded a gain on the sale of investment securities of approximately $7.1 million during the quarter.

NET INTEREST INCOME

For the third quarter of 2019, net interest income was $136.6 million, a decrease of $2.0 million from the second quarter of 2019. Net interest income (FTE)(1) was $139.4 million in the third quarter of 2019, a decrease of $2.1 million from the second quarter of 2019. The decreases in both net interest income and net interest income (FTE) were primarily driven by $2.7 million lower acquisition accounting accretion income during the three months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2019. The third quarter net interest margin decreased 14 basis points to 3.57% from 3.71% in the previous quarter, while the net interest margin (FTE)(1) decreased 14 basis points to 3.64% from 3.78% during the same periods. The decreases in the net interest margin and net interest margin (FTE) were principally due to a 19 basis point decrease in the yield on earning assets, partially offset by a 5 basis point decrease in the cost of funds.

The Company’s net interest margin (FTE) includes the impact of acquisition accounting fair value adjustments. During the third quarter of 2019, net accretion related to acquisition accounting decreased $2.7 million from the prior quarter to $5.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The second and third quarters of 2019, and the remaining estimated net accretion impact are reflected in the following table (dollars in thousands):

ASSET QUALITY/LOAN LOSS PROVISION

Overview

During the third quarter of 2019, the Company experienced increases in nonperforming assets (“NPA”) and past due loan levels as a percentage of total loans from the prior quarter. Net charge-off levels increased from the second quarter of 2019 and were primarily related to the consumer loan portfolio and a construction and land development loan; as a result, and due to loan growth, the provision for loan losses increased from the second quarter of 2019.

All nonaccrual and past due loan metrics discussed below exclude purchased credit impaired (“PCI”) loans totaling $89.7 million (net of fair value mark of $24.0 million) at September 30, 2019.

Nonperforming Assets

At September 30, 2019, NPAs totaled $36.4 million, an increase of $2.4 million, or 7.2%, from June 30, 2019 and an increase of $1.5 million, or 4.3%, from September 30, 2018. The increase in NPAs was primarily driven by the addition
of a construction and land development loan.

NPAs as a percentage of total outstanding loans at September 30, 2019 were 0.30%, an increase of 2 basis points from 0.28% at June 30, 2019 and a decline of 7 basis points from 0.37% at September 30, 2018. As the Company’s NPAs have been at or near historic lows over the last several quarters, certain changes from quarter to quarter might stand out in comparison to one another but do not have a significant impact on the Company’s overall asset quality position.

Past Due Loans

Past due loans still accruing interest totaled $55.1 million or 0.45% of total loans held for investment at September 30, 2019 compared to $43.1 million or 0.35% of total loans held for investment at June 30, 2019, and $46.6 million or 0.49% of total loans held for investment at September 30, 2018. Subsequent to quarter-end, approximately $12.0 million of the accruing past due loans became current. Of the total past due loans still accruing interest $12.0 million or 0.10% of total loans held for investment were loans past due 90 days or more at September 30, 2019, compared to $8.8 million or 0.07% of total loans held for investment at June 30, 2019, and $9.5 million or 0.10% of total loans held for investment at September 30, 2018.

Net Charge-offs

For the third quarter of 2019, net charge-offs were $7.7 million or 0.25% of total average loans on an annualized basis, compared to $4.3 million or 0.14%, for the prior quarter, and $3.2 million or 0.13%, for the third quarter of 2018. The majority of net charge-offs in the third quarter of 2019 were related to consumer loans and a construction and land development loan. On a year to date basis, net charge-offs were $16.2 million, or 0.18% of total average loans on an annualized basis.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses for the third quarter of 2019 was $9.1 million, an increase of $3.2 million compared to the previous quarter and an increase of $6.0 million compared to the third quarter of 2018. The increase in the provision for loan losses from the previous quarter and prior year was primarily due to an increase in net charge-offs and loan growth.

Allowance for Loan Losses (“ALL”)

The ALL increased $1.4 million from June 30, 2019 to $43.8 million at September 30, 2019, primarily due to loan growth during the quarter. The ALL as a percentage of the total loan portfolio was 0.36% at September 30, 2019, 0.35% at June 30, 2019, and 0.44% at September 30, 2018.

The ratio of the ALL to nonaccrual loans was 145.9% at September 30, 2019, compared to 154.6% at June 30, 2019 and 146.9% at September 30, 2018. The current level of the allowance for loan losses reflects specific reserves related to nonperforming loans, current risk ratings on loans, net charge-off activity, loan growth, delinquency trends, and other credit risk factors that the Company considers important in assessing the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income increased $17.5 million to $48.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 from $30.6 million in the prior quarter primarily driven by approximately $9.3 million in life insurance proceeds received during the quarter related to a Xenith-acquired loan that had been charged off prior to the Company’s acquisition of Xenith and a gain on sale of investment securities of approximately $7.1 million recorded during the quarter. In addition, loan related interest rate swap income increased $1.8 million and mortgage banking income increased approximately $600,000 from the prior quarter.  Partially offsetting these increases was a decline of $3.5 million in net interchange income primarily due to reduced debit card interchange transaction fees as a result of the Durbin Amendment which was effective for the Company on July 1, 2019.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest expense increased $6.1 million to $111.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 from $105.6 million in the prior quarter. Excluding merger-related costs, amortization of intangible assets, and rebranding-related costs, operating noninterest expense(1) increased $13.1 million, or 14.5%, in the third quarter of 2019, to $103.4 million when compared to the second quarter of 2019. The increase in operating noninterest expense was primarily due to the recognition of approximately $16.4 million loss on debt extinguishment resulting from the repayment of approximately $140.0 million in FHLB advances and the termination of the related cash flow hedges. In addition, third quarter operating noninterest expense included approximately $309,000 in OREO valuation adjustments driven by updated appraisals received during the quarter, $275,000 in recruiting costs related to the new equipment finance division, $1.0 million in support of a community development initiative as well as an FDIC small bank assessment expense credit of approximately $2.4 million as the deposit insurance fund reserve ratio exceeded 1.38% in the second quarter.

INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2019 was 16.8% compared to 16.0% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in the effective tax rate as compared to the previous quarter was primarily due to the lower proportion of tax-exempt income to pre-tax income.

BALANCE SHEET

At September 30, 2019, total assets were $17.4 billion, an increase of $281.7 million, or approximately 6.6% (annualized), from June 30, 2019, primarily due to higher cash and cash equivalent balances and loan growth during the third quarter of 2019.

At September 30, 2019, loans held for investment (net of deferred fees and costs) were $12.3 billion, an increase of $86.5 million, or 2.8% (annualized), from June 30, 2019, while average loans increased $155.3 million, or 5.1% (annualized), from the prior quarter.

At September 30, 2019, total deposits were $13.0 billion, an increase of $529.2 million, or approximately 16.9% (annualized), from June 30, 2019, while average deposits increased $358.5 million, or 11.5% (annualized), from prior quarter.

On July 10, 2019, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has authorized a share repurchase program to purchase up to $150 million of the Company’s common stock through June 30, 2021 in open market transactions or privately negotiated transactions.

(1) These are non-GAAP financial measures. Net interest income (FTE), which is used in computing net interest margin (FTE) and operating efficiency ratio (FTE), provides valuable additional insight into the net interest margin and the efficiency ratio by adjusting for differences in tax treatment of interest income sources. The entire FTE adjustment is attributable to interest income on earning assets, which is used in computing yield on earning assets. Interest expense and the related cost of interest-bearing liabilities and cost of funds ratios are not affected by the FTE components.

(2) These are non-GAAP financial measures. Tangible common equity is used in the calculation of certain profitability, capital, and per share ratios. The Company believes tangible common equity and the related ratios are meaningful measures of capital adequacy because they provide a meaningful base for period-to-period and company-to-company comparisons, which the Company believes will assist investors in assessing the capital of the Company and its ability to absorb potential losses.

(3) These are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that ROTCE is a meaningful supplement to GAAP financial measures and useful to investors because it measures the performance of a business consistently across time without regard to whether components of the business were acquired or developed internally.

In periods prior to December 31, 2018, the Company has not added amortization of intangibles, tax effected to operating net income (non-GAAP) when calculating operating ROTCE. The Company has adjusted its presentation for all periods in this release.

(4) These are non-GAAP financial measures. Operating measures exclude merger and rebranding-related costs unrelated to the Company’s normal operations. The Company believes these measures are useful to investors as they exclude certain costs resulting from acquisition activity and allow investors to more clearly see the combined economic results of the organization’s operations.

(5) All ratios at September 30, 2019 are estimates and subject to change pending the Company’s filing of its FR Y9‑C. All other periods are presented as filed.

(6) The operating efficiency ratio (FTE) excludes the amortization of intangible assets and merger-related costs. This measure is similar to the measure utilized by the Company when analyzing corporate performance and is also similar to the measure utilized for incentive compensation. The Company believes this measure is useful to investors as it excludes certain costs resulting from acquisition activity allowing for greater comparability with others in the industry and allowing investors to more clearly see the combined economic results of the organization’s operations.

In prior periods, the Company has not excluded the amortization of intangibles from noninterest expense when calculating the operating efficiency ratio (FTE). The Company has adjusted its presentation for all periods in this release to exclude the amortization of intangibles from noninterest expense.
