MIDLAND, Mich., Oct. 22, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Chemical Financial Corporation (Nasdaq:CHFC) today announced 2012 third quarter net income of $13.1 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, compared to 2012 second quarter net income of $13.9 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, and 2011 third quarter net income of $11.6 million, or $0.42 per diluted share. For the nine months ended September 30, 2012, net income was $39.3 million, or $1.43 per diluted share, compared to net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2011 of $31.8 million, or $1.16 per diluted share.
"Despite uneven economic conditions, Chemical Financial continues to post strong operating performance and stable financial results. Furthermore, we are making substantial progress working through our nonperforming loans and other real estate (ORE) portfolio, while controlling costs. As a result, our key credit quality and financial performance metrics continue to improve," said David B. Ramaker, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President of the Corporation.
"Our strong financial condition favorably positions us to pursue organic and acquisitive growth opportunities, as evidenced by our pending acquisition of 21 branch offices from Independent Bank, which has received regulatory approval and is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2012. We will selectively assess other potential growth opportunities that arise as we expect Michigan's banking industry to continue to consolidate," said Ramaker.
The decrease in net income in the third quarter of 2012 from the second quarter of 2012 of $0.8 million, or 5.5 percent, was primarily attributable to a decrease of $1.2 million in noninterest income that was largely due to the receipt of nonrecurring noninterest income of $0.8 million in the second quarter of 2012. While net interest income was $0.5 million higher in the third quarter of 2012 than in the second quarter of 2012, the increase in net interest income was offset by $0.5 million increases in both the provision for loan losses and operating expenses in the third quarter of 2012, as compared to the second quarter of 2012.
The increase in net income in the third quarter of 2012 over the third quarter of 2011 of $1.5 million, or 12.7 percent, was attributable to increases in both net interest income and noninterest income and a decrease in the provision for loan losses, which were partially offset by an increase in operating expenses. The increase in operating expenses was attributable to acquisition-related expenses incurred in the third quarter of 2012.
The Corporation's return on average assets during the third quarter of 2012 was 0.96 percent, compared to 1.04 percent in the second quarter of 2012 and 0.87 percent in the third quarter of 2011. The Corporation's return on average equity was 8.8 percent in the third quarter of 2012, compared to 9.6 percent in the second quarter of 2012 and 8.0 percent in the third quarter of 2011.
Net interest income was $46.9 million in the third quarter of 2012, which was $0.5 million, or 1.0 percent, higher than the second quarter of 2012 and $0.6 million, or 1.4 percent, higher than the third quarter of 2011. The net interest margin (on a tax-equivalent basis) in the third quarter of 2012 was 3.76 percent, compared to 3.80 percent in both the second quarter of 2012 and the third quarter of 2011.
The increase in net interest income of $0.5 million in the third quarter of 2012 over the second quarter of 2012 was primarily attributable to an increase in interest income that resulted from an increase in average loans of $87 million, or 2.2 percent, during the third quarter of 2012, which was partially offset by the net impact of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities repricing during the third quarter of 2012. The increase in net interest income of $0.6 million in the third quarter of 2012 over the third quarter of 2011 was primarily attributable to both an increase in interest income that resulted from an increase in average loans of $218 million, or 5.8 percent, during the twelve months ended September 30, 2012 and a slight decrease in interest expense resulting from a change in the mix of deposit liabilities between these two quarters. The favorable impact on net interest income of these two items was partially offset by the net impact of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities repricing during the twelve months ended September 30, 2012.
The provision for loan losses (provision) was $4.5 million in the third quarter of 2012, compared to $4.0 million in the second quarter of 2012 and $6.4 million in the third quarter of 2011, with $0.5 million of the provision in the third quarter of 2012 and $1.3 million of the provision in the third quarter of 2011 applicable to the acquired loan portfolio. Net loan charge-offs were $6.5 million in the third quarter of 2012, compared to $5.1 million in the second quarter of 2012 and $7.4 million in the third quarter of 2011, with $2.2 million of net loan charge-offs in the third quarter of 2012 related to one loan relationship in the acquired loan portfolio.
The Corporation established an allowance for loan losses on the acquired loan portfolio of $1.6 million in 2011 and increased it by $0.6 million and $0.5 million in the first and third quarters of 2012, respectively. The establishment of the allowance for loan losses on the acquired loan portfolio was primarily attributable to the impairment of one commercial loan relationship which resulted in one of the acquired loan pools performing below original expectations. During the third quarter of 2012, the Corporation charged off $2.2 million of this loan relationship, resulting in a $0.2 million loan balance that remained outstanding at September 30, 2012. At September 30, 2012, the allowance for loan losses on the acquired loan portfolio was $0.5 million and was related to two consumer loan pools performing slightly below original expectations. It is management's belief that the remaining acquired loan pools at September 30, 2012, were performing, overall, as or slightly better than expected compared to original expectations.
Noninterest income was $12.1 million in the third quarter of 2012, compared to $13.3 million in the second quarter of 2012 and $11.2 million in the third quarter of 2011. Noninterest income in the second quarter of 2012 included nonrecurring income of $0.6 million from the partial insurance recovery of a 2008 branch cash loss and $0.2 million of other nonrecurring income. Excluding nonrecurring income, noninterest income in the third quarter of 2012 was $0.4 million lower than the second quarter of 2012, which was attributable to lower wealth management revenue.
Noninterest income in the third quarter of 2012 was $0.9 million higher than the third quarter of 2011, with the increase attributable to increases across all major categories of noninterest income as a result of both fee increases and volume growth. The largest increase in noninterest income was in mortgage banking revenue (MBR), with MBR of $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2012 up $0.3 million from MBR of $1.2 million in the third quarter of 2011. The increase in MBR between these two quarters was primarily driven by higher volume, as the Corporation sold $71 million of mortgages in the secondary market in the third quarter of 2012, compared to the sale of $48 million in the third quarter of 2011.
Operating expenses were $36.1 million in the third quarter of 2012, compared to $35.5 million in the second quarter of 2012 and $35.4 million in the third quarter of 2011. The Corporation's control of operating expenses has resulted in its ability to maintain its efficiency ratio favorably below the average efficiency ratios of its Federal Reserve Bank peer group. The Corporation's efficiency ratios were 59.9 percent in the third quarter of 2012, 58.3 percent in the second quarter of 2012 and 60.2 percent in the third quarter of 2011.
Operating expenses in the second and third quarters of 2012 included acquisition-related expenses applicable to the pending acquisition of branches from Independent Bank of $0.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively. Excluding acquisition-related expenses, operating expenses in the third quarter of 2012 were $0.4 million higher than the second quarter of 2012 and $0.1 million higher than the third quarter of 2011. The increase in operating expenses in the third quarter of 2012 over the second quarter of 2012 was primarily attributable to seasonally higher advertising and marketing costs. The Corporation's operating expenses were essentially the same in the third quarters of 2012 and 2011, as increases in various expense categories in the third quarter of 2012, including an increase in compensation costs of $1.5 million, or 7.8 percent, were almost entirely offset by decreases in other expense categories, including lower credit-related expenses. Credit-related expenses were $0.5 million in the third quarter of 2012, a reduction of $1.7 million, or 75 percent, from credit-related expenses of $2.2 million in the third quarter of 2011.
Credit-related expenses, comprised of loan collection costs and ORE net costs, were $2.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, a decrease of $3.2 million, or 55 percent, from credit-related expenses of $5.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. Credit-related expenses were lower in all three quarters of 2012, as compared to their respective quarters in 2011. The decrease in credit-related expenses of $3.2 million was largely attributable to the Corporation recognizing net gains of $1.4 million on the sale/writedown of ORE properties during the nine months ended September 30, 2012, compared to incurring net expense of $0.6 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2011. The additional reduction in credit-related expenses of $1.2 million was largely attributable to lower legal collection costs and lower appraisal fees on nonperforming and watch loan credits as the credit quality of the Corporation's loan portfolio continued to improve.
Total assets were $5.58 billion at September 30, 2012, up from $5.35 billion at June 30, 2012 and $5.44 billion at September 30, 2011. The increase in total assets during the third quarter of 2012 was attributable to an increase in interest-bearing balances held at the Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) due to a seasonal increase in municipal customer deposits. The Corporation has maintained significant amounts of funds at the FRB, with $315 million in balances held at the FRB at September 30, 2012, compared to $120 million at June 30, 2012 and $479 million at September 30, 2011.
Total loans were $4.02 billion at September 30, 2012, up from $3.96 billion at June 30, 2012 and $3.76 billion at September 30, 2011. Total loans increased $57 million, or 1.4%, in the third quarter of 2012. The Corporation's loan growth during the third quarter of 2012 occurred primarily in the commercial and consumer loan portfolios, with commercial loans increasing $37 million, or 4 percent, and consumer loans increasing $19 million, or 2 percent. During the twelve months ended September 30, 2012, total loans increased $259 million, or 6.9 percent, with commercial loans increasing $93 million, or 10.8 percent, real estate commercial loans increasing $61 million, or 5.8 percent, real estate residential loans increasing $40 million, or 4.8 percent, and consumer installment and home equity loans increasing $93 million, or 10.6 percent, while real estate construction and land development loans decreased $29 million, or 24.2 percent. The increases in loans during the three and twelve months ended September 30, 2012 were attributable to a combination of improving economic conditions and higher loan demand, as well as the Corporation increasing its market share. The average yield on the loan portfolio was 4.86 percent in the third quarter of 2012, compared to 4.96 percent in the second quarter of 2012 and 5.29 percent in the third quarter of 2011.
Investment securities were $868 million at September 30, 2012, compared to $893 million at June 30, 2012 and $797 million at September 30, 2011. The average yield of the investment securities portfolio, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, was 2.13 percent in the third quarter of 2012, compared to 2.17 percent in the second quarter of 2012 and 2.35 percent in the third quarter of 2011.
Total deposits were $4.60 billion at September 30, 2012, up from $4.38 billion at June 30, 2012 and $4.48 billion at September 30, 2011. The Corporation experienced an increase in total deposits of $215 million, or 4.9 percent, during the third quarter of 2012, which was attributable to a seasonal increase in deposits of municipal customers. Remaining brokered deposits acquired in the Corporation's 2010 acquisition of Byron Bank were $75 million at September 30, 2012, compared to $84 million at June 30, 2012 and $98 million at September 30, 2011. Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) advances totaled $37.2 million at September 30, 2012, compared to $38.2 million at June 30, 2012 and $46.0 million at September 30, 2011. The repricing of matured customer certificates of deposit and the decrease in interest rates on various interest-bearing deposit accounts to reflect lower market interest rates resulted in the Corporation's average cost of funds declining to 0.46 percent in the third quarter of 2012 from 0.51 percent in the second quarter of 2012 and 0.65 percent in the third quarter of 2011.
At September 30, 2012, the Corporation's tangible equity to assets ratio and total risk-based capital ratio were 8.8 percent and 13.6 percent, respectively, compared to 9.0 percent and 13.6 percent, respectively, at June 30, 2012 and 8.6 percent and 13.1 percent, respectively, at September 30, 2011. At September 30, 2012, the Corporation's book value was $21.75 per share, compared to $21.42 per share at June 30, 2012 and $21.02 per share at September 30, 2011.
The credit quality of the Corporation's loan portfolio continued to show further improvement during the third quarter of 2012. At September 30, 2012, the Corporation's nonperforming loans, consisting of nonaccrual loans, accruing loans past due 90 days or more as to principal or interest and nonperforming troubled debt restructurings, totaled $90.9 million, compared to $92.8 million at June 30, 2012 and $120.4 million at September 30, 2011, representing declines of 2.1 percent and 24.5 percent, respectively. At September 30, 2012, nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans were 2.26 percent, compared to 2.34 percent at June 30, 2012 and 3.20 percent at September 30, 2011.
Other real estate and repossessed assets totaled $19.5 million at September 30, 2012, compared to $23.5 million at June 30, 2012 and $28.7 million at September 30, 2011. The decrease in other real estate during the third quarter of 2012 was primarily attributable to the sale of one ORE property, which consisted of vacant land with a carrying value of $4.1 million. This ORE property was obtained as a result of the Corporation receiving a deed in lieu of foreclosure on this property during the fourth quarter of 2010 that was attributable to a loan acquired in the Corporation's acquisition of Byron Bank. This loan was impaired at the acquisition date and was recorded at the estimated fair value of the collateral at that time.
At September 30, 2012, the allowance for loan losses of the originated loan portfolio was $84.2 million, or 2.33 percent of originated loans, compared to 2.40 percent at June 30, 2012 and 2.68 percent at September 30, 2011. The allowance for loan losses of the originated loan portfolio as a percentage of nonperforming loans was 93 percent at September 30, 2012, compared to 91 percent at June 30, 2012 and 73 percent at September 30, 2011. The allowance for loan losses of the acquired loan portfolio was $0.5 million at September 30, 2012, compared to $2.2 million at June 30, 2012 and $1.3 million at September 30, 2011. Management believes that the Corporation's acquired loan portfolio at September 30, 2012 totaling $413 million, was performing, overall, as or slightly better than original expectations.
