People’s Utah Bancorp Reports Third Quarter 2017 Results and Announces Quarterly Dividend Payment


AMERICAN FORK, Utah, Oct. 25, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- People’s Utah Bancorp (the “Company”) (Nasdaq:PUB), a bank holding company and parent of People’s Intermountain Bank (“Bank”), reported net income of $6.2 million for the third quarter of 2017 compared with $6.5 million in the second quarter of 2017, and $6.2 million for the third quarter of 2016.  Diluted earnings per common share were $0.34 for the third quarter of 2017 compared with $0.35 for the second quarter of 2017, and $0.34 for the third quarter of 2016.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2017 net income was $19.3 million, or $1.05 per diluted common share, compared with $17.1 million, or $0.94 per diluted common share, for the same period a year earlier. 

During the third quarter, the Company recorded a $0.5 million loss on sale of $80.4 million investment securities to raise liquidity to fund the purchase of net assets from the acquisition of Banner Bank branches, and recorded $0.5 million in costs related to the purchase of the Utah branches of Banner Bank and the pending merger of Town & Country Bank.  Net income from core operations was $6.9 million, or $0.37 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2017 and $20.0 million, or $1.09 per diluted common share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017(NG)

PUB previously announced that its banking subsidiary, PIB, successfully completed the acquisition of $255 million in loans and seven Utah branch locations with approximately $160 million in low-cost deposits from Banner Corporation’s (Nasdaq:BANR) banking subsidiary Banner Bank (“Banner”) on October 6, 2017.  PIB paid a deposit premium of $13.8 million based on average deposits at closing. PIB has also successfully completed the conversion of these branches onto PIB’s core banking platform.  The seven branches acquired are located in Salt Lake City, Provo, South Jordan, Woods Cross, Orem, Salem, and Springville.  The Woods Cross and Orem branches have successfully been consolidated into the existing Bank of American Fork Bountiful and Orem branches, respectively.  PIB will operate the remaining branches under the name of Bank of American Fork, a division of PIB.

PUB also announced that it expects to close the Town & Country merger on November 8, 2017, subject to Town & Country shareholder approval and other closing conditions.  PUB has received all required regulatory approvals for this merger.  Town & Country has scheduled a shareholder meeting on November 7, 2017 to vote on the merger transaction.  PIB expects to convert Town & Country onto its core banking platform on December 8, 2017.

The Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.09 per common share. The dividend will be payable on November 13, 2017 to shareholders of record on November 6, 2017. The dividend payout ratio for earnings for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 was 25.9%.  This continues our over 50-year trend in paying dividends.

“We are pleased to have achieved strong financial performance for the third quarter across our community banking family, excluding acquisition-related costs,” said Richard Beard, President and Chief Executive Officer of People’s Utah Bancorp. “While we continue to achieve solid loan and deposit growth, we’ve maintained a strong focus on credit quality as reflected in our low level of nonperforming assets.  As a result of our efforts to profitably grow our business, we continue to experience positive trends in our overall operating performance.”

Mr. Beard further stated that, “We are thrilled to have successfully completed the acquisition of the Utah branch locations from Banner Bank, which expands our footprint by five branches to a total of 25 branches, and significantly increases the size of the two branches consolidated into our existing branches.  This transaction provides our existing customers with added convenience and service with new branch locations, and gives our new customers the opportunity to enjoy outstanding personalized service and the commitment of an over 100 year old, Utah-based community bank.  This transaction, coupled with the Town & Country Bank acquisition, which we expect to complete in the fourth quarter, allows us to further deploy our solid capital base and to strategically grow our company along the I-15 corridor of the Intermountain Region.  Upon the completion of the transaction, we expect total assets to be in excess of $2.0 billion, and we expect the transactions will be immediately accretive to earnings, after acquisition-related costs.”

Earnings Summary

Net income for the third quarter of 2017 of $6.2 million compared with $6.5 million in the second quarter of 2017 was primarily impacted by the following factors: (a) higher net interest income of $0.9 million due primarily to strong loan and deposit growth; (b) lower non-interest income of $0.8 million due primarily to a $0.5 million loss on sale of investment securities, (c) higher non-interest expense of $1.3 million, principally from $1.1 million of higher salaries and benefits and $0.3 million in acquisition-related costs; and (d) lower income tax expense of $0.9 million due primarily to lower pre-tax income and tax benefits related to tax-deductible stock compensation expenses in the third quarter.  These factors contributed to diluted earnings per common share decreasing $0.01 per share to $0.34 per share in the third quarter of 2017. Diluted earnings per share from core operations was $0.37 for the third quarter of 2017(NG).

Net income for the third quarter of 2017 of $6.2 million was flat compared with the third quarter of 2016 and was impacted primarily by the following factors: (a) higher net interest income of $2.3 million due primarily to strong loan and deposit growth; (b) higher provision for loan losses of $0.6 million due primarily to loan growth and net chargeoffs; (c) lower non-interest income of $0.8 million due primarily to a $0.5 million loss on sale of investment securities; (d) higher non-interest expense of $1.8 million, principally from $1.1 million higher salaries and benefits and $0.5 million in acquisition-related costs; and (e) lower income tax expense of $0.9 million due primarily to lower pre-tax income and tax benefits related to tax-deductible stock compensation expenses in the third quarter of 2017. 

Return on average assets for the third quarter of 2017 was 1.42% compared with 1.53% for the second quarter of 2017, and 1.55% for the third quarter of 2016.  Return on average assets from core operations for the third quarter 2017 was 1.56% and was 1.56% for the second quarter of 2017(NG).  Return on average equity for the third quarter of 2017 was 10.14% compared with 10.91% for the second quarter of 2017, and 11.09% for the third quarter of 2016.  Return on average equity from core operations for the third quarter 2017 was 11.15% and 11.10% for the second quarter of 2017(NG).  

Net Interest Income and Margin

Net interest income for the third quarter of 2017 increased $0.9 million compared with the second quarter of 2017, primarily due to a $42.2 million increase in average earning assets and a 6 basis points increase in yield on interest earning assets.  Average loans increased by $39.8 million during the comparable periods.  This contributed to a higher net interest margin of 4.77% in the current quarter compared with 4.71% in the second quarter of 2017. 

Net interest income for the third quarter of 2017 increased $2.3 million compared with the same period a year earlier, primarily due to a $132.5 million increase in the average earning assets and a 16 basis points increase in the yield on interest earning assets.  Average loans increased by $110.5 million during the comparable periods.  This resulted in a higher net interest margin of 4.77% in the current quarter compared to 4.60% in the same quarter a year ago. 

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses for the third quarter of 2017 was flat at $0.9 million compared with the second quarter of 2017, and $0.6 million higher compared with the third quarter of 2016, due primarily to growth in loans held for investment and net chargeoffs.  The Company incurred net charge-offs of $0.6 million in the third quarter of 2017 compared with $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2017, and $0.3 million in the third quarter of 2016. 

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income for the third quarter of 2017 decreased $0.8 million compared with the second quarter of 2017, and decreased $0.8 million compared with the same period a year ago primarily due to $0.5 million loss on sale of $80.4 million of investment securities, which were sold to raise liquidity to fund the purchase of net assets from the acquisition of the Utah branches of Banner Bank.  In addition, the Company has experienced lower mortgage banking income and residential mortgage loan volumes during 2017 compared with 2016.

Non-interest Expense

Non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2017 increased by $1.3 million compared with the second quarter of 2017, and increased $1.8 million compared with the same period a year earlier primarily due to $0.5 million in acquisition-related costs recorded in the third quarter of 2017, and higher salaries and employee benefits due to new hires to support our strong loan and deposits growth and the acquisition of the Utah branches of Banner Bank, but are offset by a $0.5 million medical benefits refund recorded in the second quarter of 2017.  We expect to have additional acquisition-related costs in future quarters.    
Our efficiency ratio for the third quarter of 2017 was 58.13% compared with 52.94% in the second quarter of 2017 and 54.04% in the third quarter of 2016.  Our efficiency ratio from core operations for the third quarter of 2017 was 54.94% and 52.19% for the second quarter of 2017.(NG) 

Income Tax Provision

The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2017 was 30.2% compared with 35.6% for the second quarter of 2017 and 36.2% in the third quarter of 2016.  Income tax expense for the third quarter of 2017 decreased compared with the second quarter of 2017 and the third quarter of 2016 primarily due to lower pre-tax income and tax benefits of $0.5 million related to tax-deductible stock compensation expense. 

Loans and Credit Quality

Loans held for investment at September 30, 2017 increased $110.2 million, or 10.0%, year-over-year, and $95.7 million, or 8.5%, from December 31, 2016.  Average loans grew $110.5 million, or 10.0%, to $1.2 billion year-over-year from the third quarter of 2016 to the current quarter of 2017.

Non-performing loans decreased to $4.1 million at September 30, 2017 compared with $7.6 million at June 30, 2017, $5.4 million at December 31, 2016, and $4.9 million at September 30, 2016.  Non-performing assets to total assets were 0.25% at September 30, 2017, 0.47% at June 30, 2017, 0.34% at December 31, 2016, and 0.32% at September 30, 2016.  The allowance for loan losses to loans held for investment was 1.45% at September 30, 2017, 1.43% at June 30, 2017, 1.49% at December 31, 2016 and 1.46% at September 30, 2016.

Investment Securities

Investment securities at September 30, 2017 decreased by 21.9% to $302.6 million compared with $387.6 million at the same period a year earlier primarily as a result of the $80.4 in investment securities sold to raise liquidity to fund the purchase of net assets from the acquisition of the Utah branches of Banner Bank.

Deposits and Liabilities

Total deposits at September 30, 2017 were $1.53 billion compared with $1.43 billion at December 31, 2016 and $1.41 billion at September 30, 2016.  Increases during these periods were primarily due to growth of the client base and new customers. Non-interest-bearing deposits were 34.5% of total deposits as of September 30, 2017 compared with 31.1% as of December 31, 2016 and 32.9% as of September 30, 2016. 

Shareholders’ Equity

Shareholders’ equity increased to $245.4 million at September 30, 2017 compared with $228.5 million as of December 3,1 2016 and $225.2 million at September 30, 2016. The increase resulted primarily from net income during the intervening periods net of cash dividends paid to shareholders.
