• Operating Earnings Per Diluted Share of $.31
  • $98 Million of Net Loan Growth, or 19% Annualized
  • Announced Organizational Realignment as Part of Broader Efficiency Initiative in September
  • Acquisition of Equipment Finance Group Subsequent to Quarter-End

ATLANTA, Oct. 22, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — State Bank Financial Corporation (NASDAQ:STBZ) today announced operating income of $11.4 million, or $.31 per fully diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, compared to $7.7 million, or $.21 per fully diluted share for the second quarter of 2015.  Interest income on loans improved to $24.2 million, a $1.1 million increase from the second quarter of 2015, and was driven by continued strong loan growth.  Additionally, recovery activity, much of which would have previously been shared with the FDIC under the bank’s now terminated loss share agreements, contributed significantly to the improvement in operating income.

Operating income excludes severance and merger-related expenses that are not considered part of ongoing operations.  Including those items, net income for the third quarter of 2015 was $9.1 million, compared to a net loss of $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2015.  Fully diluted earnings per share were $.25 in the third quarter of 2015 compared to a fully diluted loss per share of $.06 in the second quarter of 2015.

Joe Evans, Chairman and CEO of State Bank Financial, commented, “This was another quarter of solid fundamentals as loans, core deposits, and fee income businesses continue to grow at an impressive pace.  Also, recovery income related to previously charged-off loans exceeded expectations.  I am pleased with the results of the third quarter, but even more pleased with the outlook.”

Acquisition of Patriot Capital

In a separate release today, State Bank and Trust Company announced that it purchased the equipment finance origination platform of Patriot Capital Corporation, a leading provider of equipment financing to the retail petroleum industry.  Patriot Capital is a privately owned company with 17 employees that finances equipment throughout the continental United States.  Patriot Capital was founded in 2000 and is based in Atlanta, Georgia.

Tom Wiley, President of State Bank Financial, added, “I am very pleased with our strong loan growth this quarter and am excited about the addition of Patriot Capital’s production in future periods.  We expect our acquisition of Patriot Capital will further diversify and broaden our asset generating capabilities.”

Operating Highlights

Net interest income of $37.4 million in the third quarter of 2015 increased from $33.5 million in the second quarter of 2015 due to higher interest and accretion income on loans.  Interest income on loans, excluding purchased credit impaired loans, for the third quarter of 2015 was $24.2 million, up $1.1 million from $23.1 million in the prior quarter.  Accretion income on loans was $11.2 million in the third quarter of 2015, up from $8.4 million in the second quarter of 2015 due primarily to larger gains from early loan payoffs compared to the previous quarter.  Base accretion declined $764,000 in the third quarter of 2015 compared to the prior quarter.  As of September 30, 2015, approximately $97 million of accretable discount remains to be recognized as loan accretion income, compared to $104 million of accretable discount remaining at the end of the second quarter of 2015.  Interest expense of $2.0 million in the third quarter of 2015 was essentially flat compared to the prior quarter.  Cost of funds for the third quarter of 2015 was 28 basis points, down one basis point from the second quarter of 2015.

The organic loan portfolio continued to perform well in the third quarter of 2015 as past due organic loans represented only eight basis points of total organic loans.  A net provision benefit of $265,000 was recognized in the third quarter of 2015, consisting of an $873,000 benefit to the provision on purchased credit impaired loans due to improving cash flow expectations.  This was partially offset by a $614,000 provision expense on organic loans due to loan growth in the quarter.

Noninterest income, excluding amortization of the FDIC receivable for loss share agreements in the second quarter of 2015, was $8.9 million for the third quarter of 2015, down from $9.3 million in the second quarter of 2015.  Noninterest income was negatively affected by the hedges on underlying fixed-rate loans, which contributed to a $636,000 linked-quarter decline.  In addition, a decline in mortgage banking income was largely offset by increases in SBA and payroll fee income.

Total noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2015 was $32.4 million, a $1.1 million increase from the second quarter of 2015, due almost entirely to higher salary and benefit costs as a result of severance related to the organizational realignment announced in September 2015.  Severance expenses totaled $3.0 million in the third quarter of 2015 compared to $443,000 in the second quarter of 2015.  Merger-related expenses totaled $717,000 in the third quarter of 2015, down from $876,000 in the second quarter of 2015.

Financial Condition

Total assets at September 30, 2015 were $3.4 billion, up from $3.3 billion at June 30, 2015.  Period-end organic and purchased non-credit impaired loans increased to $2.0 billion at September 30, 2015, a net increase of $115.5 million from the second quarter of 2015.  Purchased credit impaired loans decreased to $159.3 million at the end of the third quarter of 2015, an $18.0 million linked-quarter decline.  Total net loans, excluding loans held for sale, were $2.1 billion at September 30, 2015, up $98.1 million from the second quarter of 2015.

Total deposits at September 30, 2015 were $2.8 billion, up from $2.7 billion at the end of the second quarter of 2015.  Period-end noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $61.0 million from the second quarter of 2015 and represented 29.4% of total deposits as of September 30, 2015.  Average noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $75.0 million from the second quarter of 2015, the 14th consecutive quarterly increase.  Period-end and average transaction accounts, comprised of noninterest-bearing demand deposits and interest-bearing transaction accounts, increased $62.8 million and $39.4 million, respectively, from the second quarter of 2015.

Tangible book value per share was $13.78 at the end of the third quarter of 2015.  State Bank Financial Corporation continues to be well capitalized, ending the quarter with a leverage ratio of 15.04% and a Tier I risk-based capital ratio of 18.64%.

Comparison to the Third Quarter of 2014

Net operating income for the quarter ended September 30, 2015 decreased $284,000 compared to the same period in 2014.  The decrease in operating income was primarily due to the $10.0 million decrease in accretion income as the third quarter of 2014 benefited from $9.2 million in gains from loan pool closeouts.  Net income decreased $2.4 million from the third quarter of 2014 primarily as a result of severance and merger-related charges recognized in the third quarter of 2015.  Net interest income declined $513,000 as an $8.1 million increase in interest income on loans was more than offset by the previously mentioned decline in accretion income.  Cost of funds for the third quarter of 2015 of 28 basis points was down seven basis points from the third quarter of 2014.

Comparisons to the third quarter of 2014 are materially affected by State Bank’s acquisitions of Atlanta Bancorporation, Inc. on October 1, 2014 and Georgia-Carolina Bancshares, Inc. on January 1, 2015.

Noninterest income, excluding amortization of the FDIC receivable, increased $5.3 million in the third quarter of 2015 compared to the third quarter of 2014, primarily as a result of the mortgage banking and SBA lending units acquired in our two acquisitions.  Operating expenses were also impacted by the acquisitions and increased $6.5 million during the third quarter of 2015 compared to the third quarter of 2014.

Total loans increased $635.0 million during the year-over-year period as growth in organic loans of $403.0 million and purchased non-credit impaired loans of $285.4 million was partially offset by a $53.5 million decline in purchased credit impaired loans.  Total deposits increased $639.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, compared to the third quarter of 2014, including growth in noninterest-bearing deposits of $298.5 million and interest-bearing transaction accounts of $122.2 million.

Net recoveries (charge-offs) for purchased non-credit impaired loans were $6,000 for 3Q15, $(46,000) for 2Q15 and $(2,000) for 2Q15 with a corresponding provision for loan and lease losses for each of the periods, resulting in no ending allowance for purchased non-credit impaired loans at each period end.
  (2 ) Allowance for loan and lease losses amount attributable to FDIC loss share agreements for purchased credit impaired loans was $0 for 3Q15, $(549,000) for 2Q15, $(496,000) for 1Q15, $83,000 for 4Q14, and $5.8 million for 3Q14.
  (3 ) For each period presented, a portion of the Company’s purchased credit impaired loans were contractually past due; however, such delinquencies were included in the Company’s performance expectations in determining the fair values of purchased credit impaired loans at each acquisition and at subsequent valuation dates. All purchased credit impaired loan cash flows and the timing of such cash flows continue to be estimable and probable of collection and thus accretion income continues to be recognized on these assets. As such, purchased credit impaired loans are not considered to be nonperforming assets.

  (1 ) Management evaluates the capital position and operating performance of State Bank Financial Corporation (the “Company”) by using certain financial measures not calculated in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), including:  interest income – taxable equivalent, net interest income – taxable equivalent, adjusted (amortization) accretion of FDIC receivable for loss share agreements, operating noninterest income, operating noninterest expense, operating income before taxes – taxable equivalent, operating income tax expense, tangible book value per common share and operating efficiency ratio. The Company has included these non-GAAP financial measures in this press release for the applicable periods presented. Management believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures (a) provides important supplemental information that contributes to a proper understanding of the Company’s operating performance, (b) enables a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company’s business, and (c) allows investors to evaluate the Company’s performance in a manner similar to management, the financial services industry, bank stock analysts, and bank regulators. Management uses non-GAAP measures as follows: preparation of the Company’s operating budgets, monthly financial performance reporting, and presentation to investors of Company performance.
       
  Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the accompanying table. Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered as substitutes for GAAP financial measures, and the Company strongly encourages investors to review the GAAP financial measures included in this press release and not to place undue reliance upon any single financial measure. In addition, because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.
