DALLAS, July 26, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Veritex Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:VBTX), the holding company for Veritex Community Bank, announced today the results for the quarter ended June 30, 2016. The Company reported net income of $3.2 million, or $0.29 diluted earnings per share (EPS), compared to $2.8 million, or $0.26 diluted EPS, for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 and $1.9 million, or $0.19 diluted EPS, for the quarter ended June 30, 2015.

Malcolm Holland, the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “I am excited to announce another quarter of record earnings. With the reported $0.29 diluted earnings per share for the second quarter 2016, we have grown 2016 diluted earnings per share to $0.55 through the first six months of 2016, a 45% increase over $0.38 for the same period in 2015. The growth in earnings continues to be fueled by our strong loan growth with loans increasing by $43 million between March 31, 2016 and June 30, 2016.  I take great pride in noting that we have grown loans by $107 million, or 13%, since December 31, 2015, an annualized rate of 26%.”

“Loan demand continues to be robust reflecting the strength of the Dallas market. I expect that we will see a strong second half of the year,” Mr. Holland stated. “In addition to our loan growth, we have been very focused on core deposit growth over the last six months. We continue to hire experienced bankers with deep relationships in our market. We maintain that much of our franchise value is linked to our ability to retain and grow deposits,” continued Mr. Holland.

Result of Operations for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2016

Net Interest Income

For the three months ended June 30, 2016, net interest income before provision for loan losses was $10.2 million and net interest margin was 3.90% compared to $9.7 million and 3.88%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Net interest income increased $538,000 primarily due to increased interest income on loans as average loan balances increased $57.3 million due to organic loan growth during the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2016. The net interest margin increased 0.02% from the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase in net interest margin was due to an increase in the accretion of purchase discount of 0.03% and a change in the mix of interest earning assets.  Total loans, which had an average yield of 4.86% represented 86.7% of earning assets as of June 30, 2016 compared to total loans, which had an average yield of 4.86%, representing 85.3% of earning assets as of March 31, 2016.  This was offset by an increase of 0.06% in the cost of interest bearing deposits primarily due to an increase in the rate paid on money market deposit accounts.

Net interest income before provision for loan losses increased by $3.2 million from $7.0 million to $10.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016 as compared to the same period during 2015. The increase in net interest income before provision for loan losses was primarily due to $3.6 million in increased interest income on loans resulting from average loan balance increases of $289.2 million compared to June 30, 2015. The net interest margin improved 0.13% to 3.90% from the three months ended June 30, 2016 from 3.77% for the same three-month period in 2015. The primary driver of the increase was an increase in average yield on loans of 0.08% to 4.86% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 from 4.78% for the same period in 2015.  This increase in average yield was primarily the result of an additional $149,000 in purchase discount accretion representing an addition of 0.06% to loan yields.

The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities increased 0.02% from 0.70% for the three months ended June 30, 2015 to 0.72% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 primarily due to an increase in the average rate paid on money market accounts.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the three months ended June 30, 2016 was $1.4 million, an increase of $39,000 or 2.8% compared to the three months ended March 31, 2016. The net increase was a result of increased dividend income of $95,000 as a result of bi-annual Federal Reserve Bank stock dividends reflected in the three months ended June 30, 2016, and increased gain on sales of mortgage loans of $154,000 compared to three months ended March 31, 2016.  These increases were partially offset by a non-recurring gain on the sale of a loan acquired in the IBT acquisition of $193,000 reflected in the three months ended March 31, 2016, and a decrease in gain on sale of securities of $15,000 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015, noninterest income grew $724,000 or 105.2%. The increase was primarily a result of increased gains on sale of Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans totaling $252,000, increased gains on sale of mortgage loans totaling $239,000, and increased deposit service charges and fees on deposit accounts of $161,000 primarily related to the deposit accounts acquired with the acquisition of IBT.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense was $6.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016, compared to noninterest expense of $6.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016, an increase of $326,000 or 5.5%. The increase was primarily due to increases in employee expense of $415,000 related to the hiring of additional staff members, seasonal mortgage commissions, and a decrease in deferred direct origination costs.  This increase was partially offset by a decrease in professional services fees of $70,000 primarily related to annual reporting requirements for the Company as well as decreases in data processing and expenses related to other assets owned.

Compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015, noninterest expense increased $1.6 million, or 33.2%, to $6.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. This increase was primarily due to the hiring of additional employees resulting in additional salary and employee benefit expenses of $1.0 million, increased professional fees of $138,000 related to increased directors’ compensation, audit fees and legal support, and increased other operating expenses of $442,000 primarily related to the acquisition of IBT.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2016 totaled $1.6 million, an increase of $209,000, or 14.6%, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2016. The Company’s effective tax rate was approximately 34.1% and 33.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 and the three months ended March 31, 2016, respectively.

Compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015, income tax expense increased $713,000, or 77.0%, to $1.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2016. The increase in the income tax expense was primarily due to the $2.0 million increase in net operating income from $2.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2015 to $4.8 million for the three months ended June 2016.  The Company’s effective tax rate was approximately 34.1% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to 33.3% for the three months ended June 30, 2015.

Financial Condition

Loans (excluding loans held for sale and deferred loan fees) at June 30, 2016 were $928.0 million, an increase of $42.6 million or 4.8% compared to $885.4 million at March 31, 2016. The Company believes the increase from March 31, 2016 was primarily the result of the continued execution and success of our organic growth strategy.

Loans (excluding loans held for sale and deferred loan fees) increased $283.1 million, or 43.9%, compared to $645.0 million at June 30, 2015. The acquisition of IBT represented approximately $89.7 million or 31.7% of the increase from June 30, 2015. The additional growth of $193.4 million was achieved through organic growth.

Deposits at June 30, 2016 were $1.0 billion, an increase of $81.7 million, or 8.6%, compared to $946.1 million at March 31, 2016 primarily due to growth in noninterest-bearing accounts of $58.1 million and interest bearing accounts of $23.6 million. A significant contributor to the growth in noninterest-bearing accounts was a single customer deposit of $38.6 million, the customer is expected to withdraw these funds within the next 90 days.

Deposits increased $354.6 million, or 52.7%, compared to $673.1 million at June 30, 2015. The increase from June 30, 2015 was due to the acquisition of IBT’s deposits of approximately $98.3 million, customer deposit growth of $233.0 million and wholesale deposit growth of $23.3 million.

Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank were $38.4 million at June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 compared to $27.0 million at June 30, 2015.

Asset Quality

The allowance for loan losses was 0.85% and 0.83% of total loans at June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively, compared to 0.96% of total loans at June 30, 2015. The decrease in allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans compared to June 30, 2015 was primarily due to the recording of IBT acquired loans at an estimated fair value in the later part of 2015 with no significant additional loan loss reserves since the acquisition.

The provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2016 totaled $527,000 compared to $845,000 for three months ended March 31, 2016 and $148,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2015. The decrease in provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to March 31, 2016 was due to a decrease in general provision requirements as loan growth was 4.8% for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to 7.9% for the three months ended March 31, 2016. The increase in provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2015 was due to the general provision required from the increasing loan growth compared to the same period in 2015.

Other real estate owned totaled $493,000 at June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016 compared to $548,000 at June 30, 2015. Nonaccrual loans were $1.0 million at June 30, 2016 compared to $525,000 at March 31, 2016 and $312,000 at June 30, 2015. The increase in the nonaccrual loans at June 30, 2016 compared to March 31, 2016 was primarily due to the addition of a single loan. At June 30, 2016 and March 31, 2016, nonaccrual loans to our total loans held for investment was minimal at 0.11% and 0.06%, respectively.

Nonperforming assets totaled $7.2 million or 0.59% of total assets at June 30, 2016 compared to $1.2 million or 0.11% of total assets at March 31, 2016. Nonperforming assets were $860,000 or 0.10% of total assets at June 30, 2015. The increase of $6.0 million in nonperforming assets compared to March 31, 2016 is primarily related to the addition of a single $5.4 million loan to the accruing loans 90 or more days past due category.  This $5.4 million loan is part of the borrowing relationship detailed in the following paragraph and table below.  The Company believes this loan is well-secured, and a plan is in place for the borrower to bring the note fully current through contractual commitments to sell the underlying collateral and accelerate principal payments in advance of the original contractual terms within the next 90 days.

In the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company disclosed a borrowing relationship comprised of loans to multiple affiliated funds in which one of the funds had publicly disclosed that it was subject to ongoing SEC investigations and that the Federal Bureau of Investigation served a search warrant in February 2016 at the fund’s corporate offices in connection with a law enforcement investigation. The borrowing relationship consists of four loans to five affiliated funds secured by various assets, including multiple notes made to numerous residential developers in favor of the funds and further secured by deeds of trust. These loans are made to separate and distinct borrowing entities, and are not dependent on each other for repayment.  Each loan has specific collateral note assignments that relate to particular single-family residential projects in either the Houston, Dallas, Austin or San Antonio markets. The specific collateral note assignments are not cross-collateralized. The Company believes that the value of collateral securing each loan is well in excess of loan amounts with the loan to value ratios less than 50%. The borrowing relationship is not considered to be impaired and no specific reserves have been established at this time.

Deferred fees were $52,000 at June 30, 2016, $65,000 at March 31, 2016, $61,000 at December 31, 2015, $55,000 at September 30, 2015, and $49,000 at June 30, 2015.
   
  (2 ) We calculate our average assets and average equity for a period by dividing the sum of our total assets or total stockholders’ equity, as the case may be, at the close of business on each day in the relevant period, by the number of days in the period. We have calculated our return on average assets and return on average equity for a period by dividing net income for that period by our average assets and average equity, as the case may be, for that period.
   
  (3 ) Net interest margin represents net interest income, annualized on a fully tax equivalent basis, divided by average interest-earning assets.
   
  (4 ) Efficiency ratio represents noninterest expense divided by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income.
   
  (5 ) We calculate tangible common equity as total stockholders’ equity less preferred stock, goodwill, core deposit intangibles and other intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization, and we calculate tangible assets as total assets less goodwill and core deposit intangibles and other intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization. Tangible common equity to tangible assets is a non-GAAP financial measure, and, as we calculate tangible common equity to tangible assets, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is total stockholders’ equity to total assets. See our reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures in the table captioned “Reconciliation GAAP —NON-GAAP (Unaudited)”.

  (1 ) We calculate book value per common share as stockholders’ equity less preferred stock at the end of the relevant period divided by the outstanding number of shares of our common stock at the end of the relevant period.
   
  (2 ) We calculate tangible book value per common share as total stockholders’ equity less preferred stock, goodwill, and intangible assets, net of accumulated amortization at the end of the relevant period, divided by the outstanding number of shares of our common stock at the end of the relevant period. Tangible book value per common share is a non-GAAP financial measure, and, as we calculate tangible book value per common share, the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is total stockholders’ equity per common share.
