Insights

Financial Analyst

Burke & Herbert Financial Services Corp.'s Q2 2024 results reveal a complex financial picture, primarily influenced by its recent merger with Summit Financial Group. The reported net loss of $17.1 million is largely attributable to merger-related expenses and CECL provision adjustments, masking the underlying operational performance.

Key positives include:

• Adjusted operating net income of $25 million, translating to $2.04 per diluted share
• Significant growth in total assets to over $7.8 billion
• Expansion of branch network to more than 75 locations across five states
• Strong liquidity position of $2.4 billion
• Robust capital ratios, with Common Equity Tier 1 at 10.9% and Total risk-based capital at 13.8%

However, investors should note the increased cost of deposits, rising from 1.75% in Q1 to 2.43% in Q2. This could pressure margins if not offset by higher yielding assets or improved operational efficiencies.

The declared dividend of $0.53 per share signals management's confidence in the company's financial stability and future prospects. Overall, while the merger has created short-term accounting complexities, the expanded footprint and enhanced scale position Burke & Herbert for potential long-term growth and improved profitability.

Banking Industry Expert

The merger between Burke & Herbert and Summit Financial Group represents a significant strategic move in the regional banking landscape. This consolidation has created a more substantial entity with over $7.8 billion in assets, potentially enhancing competitive positioning and economies of scale.

Several aspects of this merger are noteworthy:

• The expanded geographic footprint across five states provides diversification benefits and new growth opportunities.
• The combined entity's increased size may improve access to capital markets and potentially reduce funding costs over time.
• The 84.6% loan-to-deposit ratio indicates a healthy balance between lending activities and deposit funding.
• The substantial liquidity position of $2.4 billion provides a strong buffer against potential market stresses.

However, the integration process will be crucial. The $23.8 million in merger-related expenses in Q2 suggests significant costs associated with combining operations. Investors should monitor future quarters for signs of successful integration and realization of synergies.

The increase in the cost of deposits to 2.43% is a trend to watch, as it could impact profitability if not managed effectively. However, the net interest margin improvement to 4.06% is encouraging, indicating the potential for enhanced earnings power post-merger.

In the current banking environment, where scale and efficiency are increasingly important, this merger positions Burke & Herbert more favorably within the regional banking competitive landscape.

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, merger-related expenses, or Day 2 non-PCD provision. The operating net income is more reflective of management's ability to grow the business and manage expenses. Adjusted non-interest expense also removes these significant items such as listing-related and merger-related expenses. Management believes it represents a more normalized non-interest expense total for periods with identified significant items.

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.

In management's view, tangible common equity measures are capital adequacy metrics that may be meaningful to the Company, as well as analysts and investors, in assessing the Company's use of equity and in facilitating comparisons with peers. These non-GAAP measures are valuable indicators of a financial institution's capital strength because they eliminate intangible assets from stockholders' equity and retain the effect of accumulated other comprehensive income/(loss) in stockholders' equity.

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.

1 Non-GAAP financial measures referenced in this release are used by management to measure performance in operating the business that management believes enhances investors' ability to better understand the underlying business performance and trends related to core business activities. Reconciliations of non-GAAP operating measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are included in the non-GAAP reconciliation tables in this release. Non-GAAP measures should not be used as a substitute for the closest comparable GAAP measurements.
