Branch Sale Generates $2.8 Million Pre-tax Gain
Declares Regular Quarterly Dividend of $0.1125 per Share
SIOUX FALLS, S.D., Oct. 26, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — HF Financial Corp. (Nasdaq:HFFC) today reported fiscal first quarter 2016 earnings increased 113% to $3.9 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, compared to $1.8 million, or $0.26 per diluted share one year earlier and from $2.0 million, or $0.28 per diluted share, one quarter earlier. The quarter’s earnings reflect a pre-tax gain of $2.8 million on the previously announced sale of the Pierre branch with total deposits of approximately $21.4 million. Core earnings, a non-GAAP measure, were $2.1 million, or $0.30 per diluted share for the first fiscal quarter of 2016, as compared to core earnings of $1.7 million, or $0.24 per diluted share, for the first fiscal quarter a year ago. Core earnings were supported by a stronger tax equivalent net interest margin of 3.55% for the first quarter compared to 2.84% one year earlier.
Total assets were $1.17 billion at September 30, 2015, compared to $1.19 billion the previous quarter and tangible book value per share increased to $14.61 from $14.07 the previous quarter. Loan balances declined slightly reflecting $24.2 million in loan balances sold associated with the Pierre branch. Excluding loans sold in this branch sale, loans increased by $16.2 million compared to the previous quarter. Asset quality remains strong with nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets at 1.04% at September 30, 2015, compared to 1.21% one year earlier.
“Over the past two years, we have better positioned our banking franchise to generate stronger returns on equity with healthier net interest margins, a branching platform that delivers quality service to our customers more efficiently, and a lending team with better coordination for reaching our customers. We also continue to improve workflows and examine our cost structure to maximize efficiencies,” said Stephen Bianchi, President and Chief Executive Officer.

Balance Sheet and Asset Quality Review
HF Financial’s total asset base was $1.17 billion at September 30, 2015, compared to $1.19 billion one quarter earlier. Assets declined slightly related to the branch sale and seasonal outflow of public funds. Total loans decreased to $906.3 million at September 30, 2015, impacted by the $24.2 million in loans sold with the Pierre branch sale. The loan composition after the first fiscal quarter reflects slightly less agricultural and commercial loans and a larger balance of commercial real estate loans when compared to the prior quarter end. At September 30, 2015, commercial real estate totaled 49.7%, agricultural loans totaled 21.4%, commercial business loans were 7.9%, consumer were 7.7% and construction and residential loans totaled 7.2% and 6.1%, respectively.
Total deposits decreased to $916.3 million at September 30, 2015, from $963.2 million one quarter earlier. The deposit decline reflects both the sale of $21.4 million of deposits related to the Pierre branch and a seasonal decline in public funds. Non-certificate accounts represented 66.9% of total deposits, while certificates of deposit represented 33.1% of total deposits at September 30, 2015. Non-interest bearing deposits represent 16.0% of total deposits.
FHLB advances and other borrowings increased during the first fiscal quarter of 2016 to $92.6 million compared to $65.6 million in the previous quarter, primarily consisting of shorter-term borrowing. For the quarter ended September 30, 2015, the weighted average cost of the FHLB borrowing portfolio was 0.39% compared to 0.40% the previous quarter.
Nonperforming assets (“NPAs”), which included $9.9 million of nonaccruing troubled debt restructurings that are in compliance with their restructured terms, totaled $12.1 million at September 30, 2015 compared to $15.2 million one year earlier. At September 30, 2015, NPAs represented 1.04% of total assets and included only $272,000 in foreclosed assets.
The allowance for loan and lease losses at September 30, 2015, totaled $11.3 million and represented 1.24% of total loans and leases. Total allowance relative to total nonperforming loans was 95.0% at September 30, 2015, compared to 68.7% one year earlier.
Tangible common stockholders’ equity was 8.83% of tangible assets at September 30, 2015 compared to 7.81% one year earlier. Tangible book value per common share was $14.61 at September 30, 2015, up from $13.86 one year earlier.
Capital ratios continued to remain well above regulatory requirements with Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets of 12.50% at September 30, 2015, while the ratio of Tier 1 capital to total adjusted assets was 10.62%. These regulatory ratios were higher than the required minimum levels of 6.00% and 4.00%, respectively.
Review of Operations
For the first fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2015, HF Financial’s operations reflected improved core earnings with expanding net interest margin, growing noninterest income and improving asset quality. Net interest income increased 1.5% to $9.6 million for the first fiscal quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to $9.5 million the previous quarter and 15.9% from $8.3 million one year earlier. The NIM, TE expanded to 3.55% for the fiscal first quarter compared to 3.53% the previous quarter and 2.84% one year earlier.
“The sale of our Pierre branch in the first quarter allowed us to realize a net premium on a single office with deposits of $21.4 million. In addition, the net interest margin continues to benefit from net loan growth against a lower cost of funding base, while our banking teams remain focused on developing deeper client relationships to drive fee income opportunities,” stated Brent Olthoff, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer.
Provision for loan losses reflect reserves established for the expanding loan portfolio, economic conditions and historical charge-off activity. Provisions totaled $178,000 for the first fiscal quarter of 2016 compared to $630,000 for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2015. Gross charge-offs were $193,000 for the first quarter versus $448,000 in the prior quarter.
Noninterest income totaled $6.4 million for the fiscal first quarter of 2016 compared to $3.7 million in the previous quarter. The first quarter was impacted by the sale of a bank branch for a pre-tax gain of $2.8 million. Mortgage activity produced $1.1 million in servicing and gains on loan sales revenue in the first fiscal quarter of 2016, a similar level to the prior quarter. Fees on deposits totaled $1.5 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 which was similar to the previous quarter.
Total noninterest expense was $9.9 million compared to $9.7 million in the previous quarter. Compensation and employee benefits increased to $6.1 million from $6.0 million the previous quarter and $5.3 million one year earlier. The most recent quarters reflect additional costs associated with health care costs, performance incentives, and variable pay increases related to increased mortgage activity and investment sales commissions, when compared to the same quarter one year ago. One-time retention and severance pay of $98,000 was also incurred due to the Pierre branch sale and additional internal staffing restructuring completed during the first quarter.
These financial results are preliminary until the Form 10-Q is filed in November 2015.
Quarterly Dividend Declared
The board of directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.1125 per common share for the first fiscal quarter 2016. The dividend is payable November 13, 2015 to stockholders of record November 6, 2015.

The tax-equivalent adjustment to net interest income recognizes the income tax savings when comparing taxable and tax-exempt assets and adjusting for federal and state exemption of interest income and certain other permanent income tax differences. We believe that it is a standard practice in the banking industry to present net interest margin expressed on a fully taxable equivalent basis, and accordingly believe the presentation of this non-GAAP financial measure may be useful for peer comparison purposes. As a non-GAAP financial measure, Net Interest Margin, TE should be considered supplemental to and not a substitute for or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.

Reconciliation of GAAP Earnings and Core Earnings
Although core earnings are not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP, the Company believes that its core earnings are an important indication of performance through ongoing operations. The Company believes that core earnings are useful to management and investors in evaluating its ongoing operating performance, and in comparing its performance with other companies in the banking industry. Core earnings should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP earnings. During the periods presented, the Company calculated core earnings by adding back or subtracting, net of tax, net gain or loss recorded on the sale of securities, the charges incurred from the prepayment of borrowings, the net gain or loss recorded on the sale of property, and costs incurred for branch closures.
