Independent Bank Corporation Reports 2022 Third Quarter Results

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich., Oct. 25, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Independent Bank Corporation (NASDAQ: IBCP) reported third quarter 2022 net income of $17.3 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, versus net income of $16.0 million, or $0.73 per diluted share, in the prior-year period. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company reported net income of $48.3 million, or $2.27 per diluted share, compared to net income of $50.4 million, or $2.30 per diluted share, in the prior-year period.

William B. (“Brad”) Kessel, the President and Chief Executive Officer of Independent Bank Corporation, commented: “Our successful expansion into new markets and addition of new banking talent has enabled us to continue capitalizing on the significant business investment occurring throughout the state of Michigan. This led to strong core results in the third quarter of 2022 with $3.8 million growth in net interest income, a 23 basis point expansion of our net interest margin on a linked quarter basis, net growth in each category of loans and growth in total deposits. In addition, our asset quality metrics continue to be very good, with low levels of past due loans, commercial watch credits, and non-performing assets as well as net loan recoveries for the quarter. Our allowance for credit losses to total loans is 1.50%. As we head into the fourth quarter of 2022, our focus will continue to be on the rotation of our earning asset mix out of lower yielding investments into higher yielding loans, growing our deposit base while managing our cost of funds, and controlling our non-interest expenses. While there is increasing concern about a potential economic slowdown, at this point we continue to see healthy economic conditions and loan demand in Michigan and we are excited about the opportunities we have to continue our growth trends for the remainder of 2022 and into 2023.”

Highlights for the third quarter of 2022 include:

• Increases in net income and diluted earnings per share of 8.4% and 11.0%, respectively, over the third quarter of 2021;
• Net growth in portfolio loans of $151.0 million (or 18.4% annualized);
• Annualized return on average assets and average equity of 1.40% and 20.48%, respectively;
• An increase in net interest income of 18.0% over the third quarter of 2021; and
• The payment of a 22 cent per share dividend on common stock on August 16, 2022.
  

Highlights for the first nine months of 2022 include:

• Annualized return on average assets and average equity of 1.35% and 18.56%, respectively;
• An increase in net interest income of $13.5 million or 14.1% over the first nine months of 2021;
• Net growth in portfolio loans of $504.8 million (or 23.2% annualized); and
• Net growth in deposits, excluding brokered time deposits, of $144.7 million (or 4.7% annualized).

Significant items impacting comparable 2022 and 2021 results include the following:

• Changes in the fair value due to price of capitalized mortgage loan servicing rights (the “MSR Changes”) of $3.2 million ($0.12 per diluted share, after taxes) and $14.8 million ($0.55 per diluted share, after taxes) for the three- and nine-months ended September 30, 2022, respectively, as compared to $0.6 million ($0.02 per diluted share, after taxes) and $2.8 million ($0.10 per diluted share, after taxes) for the three- and nine-months ended September 30, 2021, respectively.
• Gain on sale of two branch facilities in other income of $1.0 million ($0.04 per diluted share, after taxes) during the nine-months ended September 30, 2022.
• The provision for credit losses was an expense of $3.1 million ($0.12 per diluted share, after taxes) in the third quarter of 2022 compared to a credit of $0.7 million ($0.02 per diluted share, after taxes) in the third quarter of 2021.
• Net gains on mortgage loans was $2.9 million ($0.11 per diluted share, after taxes) in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $8.4 million ($0.30 per diluted share, after taxes) in the third quarter of 2021.
  

Operating Results

The Company’s net interest income totaled $39.9 million during the third quarter of 2022, an increase of $6.1 million, or 18.0% from the year-ago period, and up $3.8 million, or 10.6%, from the second quarter of 2022. The Company’s tax equivalent net interest income as a percent of average interest-earning assets (the “net interest margin”) was 3.49% during the third quarter of 2022, compared to 3.18% in the year-ago period, and 3.26% in the second quarter of 2022. The year-over-year quarterly increase in net interest income was due to an increase in average interest-earning assets and an increase in the net interest margin. Average interest-earning assets were $4.61 billion in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $4.30 billion in the year ago quarter and $4.49 billion in the second quarter of 2022.

For the first nine months of 2022, net interest income totaled $109.0 million, an increase of $13.5 million, or 14.1% from the first nine months in 2021. The Company’s net interest margin for the first nine months of 2022 was 3.25% compared to 3.09% in 2021. The increase in net interest income for the first nine months of 2022 compared to 2021 was also due to an increase in average interest-earning assets and an increase in the net interest margin.

Non-interest income totaled $16.9 million and $50.4 million, respectively, for the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, compared to $19.7 million and $60.9 million in the respective comparable year ago periods. These changes were primarily due to variances in mortgage banking related revenues (net gains on mortgage loans and mortgage loan servicing, net).

Net gains on mortgage loans in the third quarters of 2022 and 2021, were approximately $2.9 million and $8.4 million, respectively. For the first nine months of 2022, net gains on mortgage loans totaled $4.9 million compared to $30.3 million in 2021. The decrease in net gains on mortgage loans was primarily due to lower profit margins on mortgage loan sales, a decrease in the volume of mortgage loans sold and fair value adjustments on the mortgage loan pipeline.

Mortgage loan servicing, net, generated income of $4.3 million and $1.3 million in the third quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively. For the first nine months of 2022 and 2021, mortgage loan servicing, net, generated income of $18.1 million and $4.5 million, respectively. The significant variances in mortgage loan servicing, net is primarily due to changes in the fair value of capitalized mortgage loan servicing rights associated with changes in mortgage loan interest rates and expected future prepayment levels. Mortgage loan servicing, net activity is summarized in the following table:

	Three months ended								Nine months ended
	9/30/2022				9/30/2021				9/30/2022				9/30/2021
	(In thousands)
Mortgage loan servicing, net:
Revenue, net	$	2,190			$	2,023			$	6,397			$	5,809
Fair value change due to price		3,203				599				14,775				2,813
Fair value change due to pay-downs		(1,110	)			(1,351	)			(3,086	)			(4,146	)
Total	$	4,283			$	1,271			$	18,086			$	4,476

Other income in the third quarters of 2022 and 2021, was $2.6 million and $2.9 million, respectively. The decrease in other income was primarily attributed to a prior year relationship credit from our core data processing provider.

Non-interest expenses totaled $32.4 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $34.5 million in the year-ago period. For the first nine months of 2022, non-interest expenses totaled $96.3 million versus $97.1 million in 2021. The year-to-date decreases in non-interest expense are primarily due to decreases in data processing, loan and collection and conversion related expenses that were partially offset by an increase in compensation and employee benefits, FDIC deposit insurance, advertising expense and costs related to unfunded lending commitments. The increase in compensation and employee benefits in 2022 is due to several factors including, wage increases that were generally effective at the start of the year, a decreased level of compensation that was deferred as direct origination costs (due to lower mortgage loan origination volume), an increase in commercial lending personnel and higher health care insurance costs.

The Company recorded an income tax expense of $4.0 million and $10.9 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2022, respectively. This compares to an income tax expense of $3.7 million and $11.5 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2021, respectively. The changes in income tax expense principally reflect changes in pre-tax earnings in 2022 relative to 2021.

(1)   Excludes loans that are classified as “troubled debt restructured” that are still performing.

The provision for credit losses was an expense of $3.1 million and a credit of $0.7 million in the third quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively. The provision for credit losses was an expense of $4.0 million and a credit of $2.6 million in the first nine months of 2022 and 2021, respectively. The quarterly increase in the provision for credit losses in 2022 compared to 2021, was the result of lower recoveries on loans previously charged off, a change in allocation rates due to subjective factors (prior year allocation rates were decreased while current year rates were unchanged during each respective quarter) and increases in pooled reserve allocations due in part to loan portfolio growth and portfolio mix. The year-to-date increase in the provision for credit losses in 2022 compared to 2021, was primarily the result of an increase in the adjustment to allocations based on the pooled reserves due in part to loan growth and lower recoveries on loans previously charged off. The Company recorded loan net recoveries of $0.1 million and $1.5 million in the third quarters of 2022 and 2021, respectively. At September 30, 2022, the allowance for credit losses totaled $51.1 million, or 1.50% of total portfolio loans compared to $47.3 million, or 1.63% of total portfolio loans at December 31, 2021.

Balance Sheet, Liquidity and Capital

Total assets were $4.93 billion at September 30, 2022, an increase of $226.6 million from December 31, 2021. Loans, excluding loans held for sale, were $3.41 billion at September 30, 2022, compared to $2.91 billion at December 31, 2021. Deposits totaled $4.33 billion at September 30, 2022, an increase of $209.9 million from December 31, 2021. This increase is primarily due to growth in non-interest bearing, interest-bearing checking, reciprocal and brokered time deposit account balances.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $70.6 million at September 30, 2022, versus $109.5 million at December 31, 2021. Securities available for sale (“AFS”) totaled $804.3 million at September 30, 2022, versus $1.41 billion at December 31, 2021. The decrease in securities AFS is primarily due to the transfer of $391.6 million of securities AFS to held to maturity on April 1, 2022.

Accrued income and other assets were $126.2 million at September 30, 2022, an increase of $60.1 million from December 31, 2021. The increase is primarily due to the increases in the fair value of certain pay-fixed derivative instruments due to an increase in interest rates and deferred tax assets related to unrealized losses on securities available for sale.

Accrued expenses and other liabilities totaled $106.3 million at September 30, 2022, versus $80.2 million at December 31, 2021. The increase is primarily due to a decrease in the fair value of certain receive-fixed derivative instruments due to an increase in interest rates and an increase in income taxes payable.

Total shareholders’ equity was $332.3 million at September 30, 2022, or 6.74% of total assets compared to $398.5 million or 8.47% at December 31, 2021. Tangible common equity totaled $301.3 million at September 30, 2022, or $14.30 per share compared to $366.8 million or $17.33 per share at December 31, 2021. The decrease in shareholder equity as well as tangible common equity are primarily the result of a decline in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) related to unrealized losses on securities available for sale due to a rise in interest rates. The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Independent Bank, remains significantly above “well capitalized” for regulatory purposes with the following ratios:

Regulatory Capital Ratios	9/30/2022			12/31/2021			Well Capitalized Minimum
Tier 1 capital to average total assets	8.47	%		8.57	%		5.00	%
Tier 1 common equity to risk-weighted assets	10.92	%		11.80	%		6.50	%
Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted assets	10.92	%		11.80	%		8.00	%
Total capital to risk-weighted assets	12.17	%		13.05	%		10.00	%

Share Repurchase Plan

On December 18, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the 2022 share repurchase plan. Under the terms of the 2022 share repurchase plan, the Company is authorized to purchase up to 1,100,000 shares, or approximately 5% of its then outstanding common stock.
