(NASDAQ:IBTX), the holding company for Independent Bank, today announced net income of $23.5 million, or $0.84 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 compared to $14.5 million, or $0.78 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 and $18.1 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

Highlights

  • Adjusted (non-GAAP) net income was $24.8 million, or $0.89 per diluted share, compared to $22.7 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, for second quarter 2017, representing 9.2% increase
  • Increase in adjusted (non-GAAP) return on average assets to 1.13%, up from second quarter 2017 of 1.08%
  • Improved adjusted (non-GAAP) efficiency ratio of 51.2%, compared to 53.2% for second quarter 2017
  • Organic loan growth annualized for the quarter of 6.9% despite the impact of Hurricane Harvey on the Houston market
  • Credit quality metrics continue to be strong

Independent Bank Group Chairman and Chief Executive Officer David Brooks commented, “We are pleased to report another quarter of record quarterly net income supported by continued excellent credit metrics.  While organic loan growth slowed slightly as we paused to take care of our customers and employees impacted by Hurricane Harvey, we are confident that loan growth will return to historically strong levels for the remainder of 2017.” Brooks continued, “We continue to integrate the Carlile operations and sharpened our footprint during the quarter which we believe will enhance our performance going forward.”

Third Quarter 2017 Operating Results

Net Interest Income

  • Net interest income was $72.9 million for third quarter 2017 compared to $45.7 million for third quarter 2016 and $69.5 million for second quarter 2017. The increase in net interest income from the previous year was due to increased average earning asset balances resulting primarily from the acquisition of Carlile, as well as organic growth for the year.  The net increase from the linked quarter is primarily a result of organic growth in average interest earning assets.
  • The average balance of total interest-earning assets grew by $2.5 billion and totaled $7.5 billion at September 30, 2017 compared to $5.0 billion at September 30, 2016 and grew $190 million compared to $7.3 billion at June 30, 2017.  This increase from prior year is due primarily to $1.8 billion in average earning assets acquired in the Carlile transaction as well as organic growth for the quarter.
  • The yield on interest-earning assets was 4.47% for third quarter 2017 compared to 4.22% for third quarter 2016 and 4.38% for second quarter 2017.  The increase from the prior year is due primarily to loans and taxable securities acquired in the Carlile transaction, which had higher effective interest rates as well as increased interest rates on interest-bearing deposits which are tied to the Fed Funds rate. The increase from the linked quarter is primarily due to an increase in the loan yield which included $458 thousand of nonaccrual interest recognized in addition to increased acquired loan accretion and higher interest rates on interest-bearing deposits.
  • The cost of interest bearing liabilities, including borrowings, was 0.84% for third quarter 2017 compared to 0.74% for third quarter 2016 and 0.77% for second quarter 2017.  The increase from the prior year and linked quarter is primarily due to higher rates offered on public fund certificates of deposit and money market accounts due to competition in our markets but also due in part to increased interest rates on deposit products tied to Fed Funds rates and short-term FHLB advances.
  • The net interest margin was 3.85% for third quarter 2017 compared to 3.66% for third quarter 2016 and 3.81% for second quarter 2017.  The adjusted (non-GAAP) net interest margin, which excludes purchased loan accretion, was 3.80% for third quarter 2017 compared to 3.65% for third quarter 2016 and 3.78% for second quarter 2017.  The increase on the net margin from the prior year is primarily due to the higher yielding asset mix acquired in the Carlile transaction and the three increases in the Fed Funds target rate since fourth quarter 2016.

Noninterest Income

  • Total noninterest income increased $7.2 million compared to third quarter 2016 and $1.1 million compared to second quarter 2017.
  • The increase from the prior year primarily reflects increases of $1.8 million in service charges, $2.6 million in mortgage income and $2.1 million in other noninterest income.  The overall increase from prior year reflects the acquisition of Carlile.  In addition, the Company implemented a new deposit fee schedule in late 2016 which increased organic service charges for the year over year period. The increase in other noninterest income from prior year, is primarily due to $994 thousand recoveries in loans charged off prior to acquisition in addition to increases in earnings credits and merchant income.
  • The increase from the linked quarter reflects an increase of $1.5 million in other noninterest income offset by a $450 thousand decrease in mortgage fee income. The increase in other noninterest income is primarily due to $871 thousand in acquired loan recoveries in addition to $370 thousand of earnings credits.

Noninterest Expense

  • Total noninterest expense increased $21.0 million compared to third quarter 2016 and decreased $3.4 million compared to second quarter 2017. 
  • The increase in noninterest expense compared to third quarter 2016 is due primarily to increases of $10.4 million in salaries and benefits, $2.3 million in occupancy expenses, $1.4 million in data processing, $2.4 million in acquisition-related expenses and $1.9 million in other noninterest expenses. The increase from prior year is reflective of additional headcount, branch locations and accounts acquired in the Carlile transaction, which closed on April 1, 2017.  The increase includes acquisition expenses for professional and contract termination fees incurred relating to the acquisition and expenses related to restructuring the acquired branch system during third quarter 2017.
  • The decrease from the linked quarter is primarily related to decreases of $1.4 million in salaries and benefits expenses due to closing and retention bonuses of $1.2 million related to the Carlile transaction paid in second quarter 2017.  In addition, there were decreases of $3.2 million in other acquisition expenses offset by an increase of $797 thousand in other real estate impairment expenses.

Provision for Loan Losses

  • Provision for loan loss was $1.9 million for the third quarter 2017, a decrease of $250 thousand and $599 thousand, respectively compared to $2.1 million for the third quarter 2016 and $2.5 million for the second quarter 2017.  Provision expense is primarily reflective of organic loan growth during the respective period.
  • The allowance for loan losses was $37.8 million, or 0.61% of total loans, at September 30, 2017, compared to $29.6 million, or 0.68% of total loans at September 30, 2016, and compared to $35.9 million, or 0.59% of total loans, at June 30, 2017.  The dollar increases from prior periods are primarily due to additional general reserves for organic loan growth.  The decrease in the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans from prior year reflects that loans acquired in the Carlile transaction were recorded at fair value without an allowance at acquisition date.

Income Taxes

  • Federal income tax expense of $11.7 million was recorded for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, an effective rate of 33.2% compared to tax expense of $7.2 million and an effective rate of 33.0% for the quarter ended September 30, 2016 and tax expense of $8.6 million and an effective rate of 32.1% for the quarter ended June 30, 2017.  The lower tax rate in the second quarter 2017 was due to $520 thousand recognized tax benefits related to restricted stock vesting during the quarter.

Third Quarter 2017 Balance Sheet Highlights:

Loans

  • Total loans held for investment, net of mortgage warehouse purchase loans, were $6.2 billion at September 30, 2017 compared to $6.1 billion at June 30, 2017 and $4.4 billion at September 30, 2016.  This represents organic growth of total loans held for investment of $107 million for the quarter, or 6.9% on an annualized basis. Loans held for investment grew $1.7 billion from December 31, 2016, or 36.16%, of which $1.4 billion was loans held for investment acquired with Carlile acquisition and $370 million was organic growth, or 10.8%, on an annualized basis.
  • Total mortgage warehouse purchase loans were $138.6 million at September 30, 2017 compared to $120.2 million at June 30, 2017, representing growth of $18.3 million, for the quarter, or 15.3%.
  • Commercial real estate (CRE) loans were $3.3 billion at September 30, 2017 compared to $2.5 billion at December 31, 2016, or 50.9% and 53.7% of total loans, respectively.

Asset Quality

  • Total nonperforming assets decreased to $25.0 million, or 0.28% of total assets at September 30, 2017 from $26.1 million, or 0.30% of total assets at June 30, 2017 and increased from $13.3 million, or 0.23% of total assets at September 30, 2016.
  • Total nonperforming loans increased slightly to $14.7 million, or 0.24% of total loans at September 30, 2017 from $14.5 million, or 0.24% of total loans at June 30, 2017 and from $11.2 million, or 0.26% of total loans at September 30, 2016.
  • The net decrease in the dollar amount of nonperforming assets from the linked quarter is primarily due to other real estate dispositions totaling $3.0 million offset by a net addition of $1.8 million in other real estate owned resulting from the closing of a Houston branch during third quarter 2017.
  • The increase in the dollar amount of nonperforming assets from the prior year is primarily due to additions in other real estate owned totaling $10.0 million related to the Carlile acquisition, the $1.8 million addition mentioned above as well as two nonaccrual credit relationship additions totaling $4.0 million during first quarter 2017, offset by other real estate owned dispositions totaling $4.9 million during second and third quarters 2017.  The increase in nonperforming loans from the prior year is primarily due to the above mentioned loans placed on nonaccrual during first quarter 2017.
  • Charge-offs were less than 0.01% annualized in the third and second quarters 2017 compared to 0.32% annualized in the prior year third quarter.  Third quarter 2016 charge-offs were primarily related to a partial charge-off of an impaired energy loan.

Deposits and Borrowings

  • Total deposits were $6.9 billion at September 30, 2017 compared to $6.7 billion at June 30, 2017 and compared to $4.4 billion at September 30, 2016.  The increase from the prior year is primarily due to $1.8 billion in deposit accounts acquired in the Carlile transaction.
  • Total borrowings (other than junior subordinated debentures) were $683.5 million at September 30, 2017, an increase of $99 million from June 30, 2017 and an increase of $106 million from September 30, 2016.  The change in both periods resulted from the use of short term FHLB advances as needed for liquidity.

Capital

  • Independent Bank Group is well capitalized under regulatory guidelines. At September 30, 2017, our ratio of tangible common equity to total tangible assets was 7.62%.

Recent Branch Activity

As part of the integration process, Independent Bank has restructured the Northstar Bank branch system acquired in the Carlile acquisition as announced during second quarter of 2017. During the third quarter of 2017, Independent Bank was successful in

  • Completing the sale of the Marble Falls Branch
  • Consolidating the Barton Creek Branch with the Westlake Hills Branch in Austin, Texas
  • Consolidating two Granbury, Texas Branches
  • Closing Veterans Memorial Branch in Houston, Texas.

The financial effect of these transactions and events was minimal and is reflected in the foregoing description of earnings and the accompanying financial information.

In addition, Independent Bank completed the sale of nine Colorado branches on October 6, 2017, transferring $99 million in loans and $161 million in deposits.  The financial effect of this transaction is not reflected in the foregoing description of earnings or the accompanying financial information.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures.  These measures and ratios include “adjusted net income”, “adjusted earnings”, “tangible book value”, “tangible book value per common share”, “adjusted efficiency ratio”, “Tier 1 capital to average assets”, “Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets”, “tangible common equity to tangible assets”, “adjusted net interest margin”, “return on tangible equity,” “adjusted return on average assets” and “adjusted return on average equity” and are supplemental measures that are not required by, or are not presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.  We consider the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial operational decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons.  We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain expenditures or assets that we believe are not indicative of our primary business operating results.  We believe that management and investors benefit from referring to these non- GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods.

We believe that these measures provide useful information to management and investors that is supplementary to our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP; however we acknowledge that our financial measures have a number of limitations relative to GAAP financial measures.  Certain non-GAAP financial measures exclude items of income, expenditures, expenses, assets, or liabilities, including provisions for loan losses and the effect of goodwill, core deposit intangibles and income from accretion on acquired loans arising from purchase accounting adjustments, that we believe cause certain aspects of our results of operations or financial condition to be not indicative of our primary operating results.  All of these items significantly impact our financial statements.  Additionally, the items that we exclude in our adjustments are not necessarily consistent with the items that our peers may exclude from their results of operations and key financial measures and therefore may limit the comparability of similarly named financial measures and ratios.  We compensate for these limitations by providing the equivalent GAAP measures whenever we present the non-GAAP financial measures and by including a reconciliation of the impact of the components adjusted for in the non- GAAP financial measure so that both measures and the individual components may be considered when analyzing our performance.

A reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures is included at the end of the financial statements tables.
