Insights

Burke & Herbert's declaration of a $0.53 per share dividend reflects a consistent shareholder return policy, indicating stability in the company's cash flow management. The slight dip in net income compared to the same quarter last year, from $7.5 million to $5.2 million, suggests that increased funding costs and merger-related expenses are impacting profitability, a trend worth monitoring for investors focused on bottom-line growth. The 8.5% year-over-year increase in total gross loans shows organic growth in the company's lending operations, which could indicate a strategic advantage in its market segment. The upcoming merger with Summit Financial Group aims to expand the company's market reach and asset base, which may offer long-term growth prospects despite the short-term costs highlighted in the report.

The company's liquidity position, with $758.3 million in total liquidity, underscores a strong balance sheet, critical for maneuvering in uncertain economic climates. Solid liquidity reserves provide the capacity for strategic initiatives, such as the pending merger with Summit Financial Group. However, this merger is a double-edged sword, as it carries integration risks that could impact short-term performance. Investors should weigh the potential for increased market share and revenue diversification against the risks inherent in such a significant corporate restructuring. The stable asset quality and adequate reserves reflect prudent risk management that may reassure investors seeking lower risk profiles in their bank stocks.

The reported Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 16.6% far exceeds the well-capitalized threshold, underscoring a strong capital position which is pivotal in supporting growth and buffering against potential loan losses. A solid capital base is particularly vital when considering the bank's expansion plans through the merger. Conversely, the increase in non-interest bearing deposits transitioning to interest-bearing forms, leading to higher interest expenses, reveals customer behavioral shifts in a rising rate environment. It's essential for investors to recognize that while this can pressure the net interest margin in the short-term, it also offers an opportunity for banks to recalibrate their deposit strategies for long-term profitability.

Results of Operations

First Quarter 2024 - Comparison to prior year quarter

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was $5.2 million, or $2.3 million lower than the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily due to increased funding costs and merger-related costs that were partially offset by an increase in loan interest income, due to increased loan balances and higher rates, and a recapture of credit loss provision in the current quarter.

Total revenue (non-GAAP2) for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was $26.4 million, or 9% lower than the three months ended March 31, 2023, and included $28.0 million in interest and fees on loans and $10.3 million in investment security income, which was a 23% increase and a 8% decrease, respectively, over the prior year three months ended March 31, 2023. Overall, interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2024, was $38.7 million, or 13% higher than the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase in interest income for the Company's loans was due to increased loan balances and higher rates, and the interest income decrease in investment securities was due to a lower level of investment securities. Loans, net of allowance for credit losses, ended the quarter at $2.1 billion, or 9% higher than March 31, 2023, while the investment portfolio fair value ended the quarter at $1.3 billion, or 6% lower than the prior year quarter.

The increase in interest income was offset by an increase in interest expense, which was $16.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, or $7.1 million higher than the prior year quarter. The rapid rise in interest rates last year resulted in an increase in the Company's cost of funds that outpaced the resulting benefit of higher rates on assets. The Company's deposit interest expense was $12.9 million, or $7.5 million higher, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023. Total deposits ended the quarter at $3.0 billion, which was slightly lower than the balance in the prior year quarter. Non-interest-bearing deposits decreased by 9% to $822.8 million, and interest-bearing deposits increased by 2% to $2.2 billion from the prior year quarter ended March 31, 2023, reflecting the changing deposit mix from non-interest-bearing to interest-bearing that has resulted in higher interest rate expense. The Company's borrowed funds increased by 12% to $360.0 million from the prior year quarter ended March 31, 2023. Overall, net interest income decreased by $2.6 million from the prior year quarter.

Non-interest income for the three months ended March 31, 2024, increased slightly from the same period last year and totaled $4.3 million for the current period. The slight increase was primarily related to an increase in fiduciary and wealth management fees of $0.1 million when compared to the prior year quarter.

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recorded a recapture of credit losses of $0.7 million, compared to a provision for credit losses of $0.5 million in the prior year quarter due to improving portfolio credit quality and continued diversification of the loan portfolio. Total revenue (non-GAAP2) after provision for credit losses was $27.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024, which was a decrease of 5% compared to the same period last year.

Non-interest expense increased by $0.8 million, or 4%, for the three months ended March 31, 2024, from the prior year three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to other non-interest expenses associated with merger-related activities, including legal, consulting, and integration-related costs.

As of March 31, 2024, total shareholders' equity was $319.3 million, or $29.5 million higher than March 31, 2023, primarily the result of higher fair value marks for our security portfolio resulting in lower accumulated other comprehensive loss by $22.9 million.

Regulatory capital ratios

The Company continues to be well-capitalized with capital ratios that are above regulatory requirements. As of March 31, 2024, our Common Equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted asset and Total risk-based capital to risk-weighted asset ratios were 16.6% and 17.5%, respectively, and significantly above the well-capitalized requirements of 6.5% and 10%, respectively. The leverage ratio was 11.4% compared to a 5% level to be considered well-capitalized.

Burke & Herbert Bank & Trust Company ("the Bank"), the Company's wholly-owned bank subsidiary, also continues to be well-capitalized with capital ratios that are above regulatory requirements. As of March 31, 2024, the Bank's Common Equity Tier 1 capital to risk-weighted asset and Total risk-based capital to risk-weighted asset ratios were 16.4% and 17.4%, respectively, and significantly above the well-capitalized requirements. In addition, the Bank's leverage ratio of 11.3% is considered to be well-capitalized.

Operating net income is a non-GAAP measure that is derived from net income adjusted for significant items. The Company believes that operating net income is useful in periods with certain significant items, such as listing-related or merger-related expenses. The operating net income is more reflective of management's ability to grow the business and manage expenses.

Total revenue is a non-GAAP measure and is derived from total interest income less total interest expense plus total non-interest income. We believe that total revenue is a useful tool to determine how the Company is managing its business and demonstrates how stable our revenue sources are from period to period.

Pretax, pre-provision earnings is a non-GAAP measure and is based on adjusting income before income taxes and to exclude provision for (recapture of) credit losses. We believe that pretax, pre-provision earnings is a useful tool to help evaluate the ability to provide for credit costs through operations and provides an additional basis to compare results between periods by isolating the impact of provision for (recapture of) credit losses, which can vary significantly between periods.

The interest income earned on certain earning assets is completely or partially exempt from federal income tax. As such, these tax-exempt instruments typically yield lower returns than taxable investments. To provide more meaningful comparisons of net interest income, we use net interest income on a fully taxable-equivalent (FTE) basis by increasing the interest income earned on tax-exempt assets to make it fully equivalent to interest income earned on taxable investments. FTE net interest income is calculated by adding the tax benefit on certain financial interest earning assets, whose interest is tax-exempt, to total interest income then subtracting total interest expense. Management believes FTE net interest income is a standard practice in the banking industry, and when net interest income is adjusted on an FTE basis, yields on taxable, nontaxable, and partially taxable assets are comparable; however, the adjustment to an FTE basis has no impact on net income and this adjustment is not permitted under GAAP. FTE net interest income is only used for calculating FTE net interest margin, which is calculated by annualizing FTE net interest income and then dividing by the average earning assets. The tax-rate used for this adjustment is 21%. Net interest income shown elsewhere in this presentation is GAAP net interest income.
