MIAMI LAKES, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- BankUnited, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE: BKU) today announced financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.

"While March was a challenging month for the banking industry, BankUnited continued to support its customers and serve their banking needs. Our business is stable, we have strong liquidity and robust capital," said Rajinder Singh, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the Company reported net income of $52.9 million, or $0.70 per diluted share, compared to $64.2 million, or $0.82 per diluted share for the immediately preceding quarter ended December 31, 2022 and $67.2 million, or $0.79 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

Quarterly Highlights

• Our liquidity position is strong. At March 31, 2023, the Bank had total same day available liquidity of approximately $9.4 billion. As of April 21, 2023, available liquidity had increased to approximately $12.3 billion. At March 31, 2023, the Bank's ratio of estimated insured and collateralized deposits to total deposits was 62% and its available liquidity to estimated uninsured, uncollateralized deposits ratio was 95%. As of April 21, 2023, the ratio of available liquidity to estimated uninsured, uncollateralized deposits was approximately 128%.

• The Bank initially experienced deposit outflows at the onset of recent events impacting the banking sector, however, deposit flows quickly stabilized. Total deposits declined by $1.79 billion during the quarter ended March 31, 2023, including non-interest bearing demand deposits declining by $671 million. Deposit outflows over the latter part of March, 2023 were concentrated in a small number of larger institutional depositors. Non-interest bearing demand deposits were 29% of total deposits at both March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

• Net interest income and the net interest margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 were negatively impacted by an increase in the cost of funds which more than offset the increased yield on interest-earning assets. A greater than anticipated decline in average non-interest bearing deposits and an increase in on-balance sheet liquidity led to an increase in higher cost deposits and FHLB advances. The net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, was 2.62% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, compared to 2.81% for the immediately preceding quarter ended December 31, 2022 and 2.50% for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. Net interest income decreased by $15.2 million, compared to the immediately preceding quarter ended December 31, 2022 and increased by $19.2 million compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

• In response to the rising interest rate environment, tightening liquidity conditions and recent events impacting the banking sector, the average cost of total deposits rose to 2.05% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, from 1.42% for the immediately preceding quarter ended December 31, 2022. The yield on average interest earning assets increased to 5.05% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, from 4.60% for the immediately preceding quarter.

• For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the provision for credit losses was $19.8 million compared to provisions of $39.6 million and $7.8 million for the quarters ended December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022, respectively. The ratio of the ACL to total loans increased to 0.64%, at March 31, 2023 from 0.59% at December 31, 2022.

• Non-interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 included a $13.3 million net loss on certain preferred equity investments.

• Total loans was flat quarter-over-quarter, with a $111 million decline in residential offsetting net growth in the commercial segments of $118 million. The core C&I and CRE portfolio segments grew by $144 million.

• The pre-tax net unrealized loss on investment securities available for sale ("AFS") improved by $100 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2023 to $574 million from $674 million at December 31, 2022. The duration of the AFS portfolio was 1.95 at March 31, 2023. Securities held to maturity totaled only $10 million at March 31, 2023.

• The Company announced an increase of $0.02 per share in its common stock dividend for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, to $0.27 per common share, reflecting an 8% increase from the previous level of $0.25 per share.

• During the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the Company repurchased approximately 1.6 million shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $55.0 million, at a weighted average price of $33.41 per share.

• CET1 was 10.8% at the holding company and 12.5% at the Bank at March 31, 2023. Pro-forma CET1 at the holding company, including accumulated other comprehensive income, was 9.4%.

• Book value and tangible book value per common share improved to $33.34 and $32.30, respectively, at March 31, 2023, from $32.19 and $31.16, respectively at December 31, 2022. 

Deposits and Liquidity

Total deposits declined by $1.79 billion during the quarter ended March 31, 2023. Deposits declined by $1.75 billion during the week of March 13, 2023 and then stabilized, increasing by $245 million through the remainder of the quarter. Outflows from a small number of larger institutional clients the week of March 13 drove $1.9 billion of outflows. Deposit flows across the remainder of the core deposit book appeared to be within the range of what we consider to be normal operating activity during this period. The cost of total deposits increased to 2.05% from 1.42% for the immediately preceding quarter, while the cost of interest bearing deposits increased to 2.86% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, from 2.06% for the preceding quarter.

At April 21, 2023 and March 31, 2023 same day available liquidity totaled approximately $12.3 billion and $9.4 billion, respectively, including cash, borrowing capacity at the Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta and the Federal Reserve and unencumbered securities.

The ACL at March 31, 2023 represents management's estimate of lifetime expected credit losses given our assessment of historical data, current conditions, and a reasonable and supportable economic forecast as of the balance sheet date. For the quarter ended March 31, 2023, the provision for credit losses was $19.8 million, including $17.6 million related to funded loans. The more significant factors impacting the provision for credit losses and increase in the ACL for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 were a deteriorating economic forecast and an increase in certain specific reserves.

The following table summarizes the activity in the ACL for the periods indicated (in thousands):

	Three Months Ended

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 was $227.9 million, compared to $243.1 million for the immediately preceding quarter ended December 31, 2022 and $208.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. Interest income increased by $38.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, compared to the immediately preceding quarter while interest expense increased by $54.1 million.

The Company’s net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, decreased by 0.19% to 2.62% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, from 2.81% for the immediately preceding quarter ended December 31, 2022. Overall, the net interest margin was negatively impacted by an increase in the cost of interest-bearing deposits and FHLB advances, more than offsetting the increased yield on interest earning assets. A decline in average non-interest bearing deposits and an increase in on-balance sheet liquidity contributed to an increase in higher-cost funding.

More detail about factors impacting the net interest margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 follows:

• The tax-equivalent yield on investment securities increased to 4.95% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, from 4.33% for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. This increase resulted primarily from the reset of coupon rates on variable rate securities.

• The tax-equivalent yield on loans increased to 5.10% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, from 4.72% for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. The resetting of variable rate loans to higher coupon rates and origination of new loans at higher rates contributed to the increase.

• The average rate paid on interest bearing deposits increased to 2.86% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 from 2.06% for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, in response to the rising interest rate environment, tightening liquidity conditions and the shift from non-interest bearing deposits to deposits priced at current, higher market rates.

• The average rate paid on FHLB advances increased to 4.27% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, from 3.44% for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, primarily due to higher prevailing rates

• Average non-interest bearing demand deposits declined by $0.8 billion while average cash balances increased by $0.3 billion for the quarter. Correspondingly, the increase in average interest-bearing sources of funds added to the balance sheet at higher current rates totaled $1.1 billion for the quarter. The estimated impact of this shift on the net interest margin for the quarter was 0.14%. 

Non-interest income and Non-interest expense

Non-interest income totaled $16.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, compared to $26.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 and $14.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. The quarter over quarter decline is primarily attributable to a $13.3 million loss on certain preferred equity investments during the quarter ended March 31, 2023.

Non-interest expense totaled $152.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, compared to $148.5 million for the immediately preceding quarter ended December 31, 2022 and $126.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

• The year-over-year increases in employee compensation and benefits and in technology expense reflected labor market dynamics and continued investment in people and technology to support future growth.

• Deposit insurance expense increased by $4.5 million compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2022, reflecting an increase in the assessment rate.

• Other non-interest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 included $4.4 million related to certain operational losses. Costs related to deposit rebate and commission programs increased by $6.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 compared to the first quarter of the prior year.
