WEST READING, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Customers Bancorp, Inc. (NYSE:CUBI)

Third Quarter 2023 Highlights

  • Q3 2023 net income available to common shareholders was $83.0 million, or $2.58 per diluted share; ROAA was 1.57% and ROCE was 23.97%.
  • Q3 2023 core earnings* were $83.3 million, or $2.59 per diluted share; Core ROAA* was 1.57% and Core ROCE* was 24.06%.
  • CET 1 capital ratio of 11.3%1 at September 30, 2023, compared to 10.3% at June 30, 2023, achieving goal of 11.0% - 11.5% one quarter earlier than expected.
  • Q3 2023 net interest margin, tax equivalent (NIM) was 3.70%, an increase of 55 basis points over Q2 2023 NIM of 3.15%, largely resulting from higher than expected discount accretion on the Venture Banking portfolio acquired in Q2 2023.
  • Total deposits grew by $244.9 million in Q3 2023 over Q2 2023 with a significant positive mix shift. Q3 2023 core deposit growth of $1.3 billion drove the repayment of maturing wholesale CDs of $937 million and callable FHLB advances of $510 million. Q3 2023 non-interest bearing deposits increased $268.5 million, or 6%, over Q2 2023.
  • Total estimated insured deposits were 78%2 of total deposits at September 30, 2023, with immediately available liquidity covering uninsured deposits by approximately 239%.
  • Q3 2023 adjusted pre-tax pre-provision net income* was $128.6 million; adjusted pre-tax pre-provision ROAA* was 2.32%; and adjusted pre-tax pre-provision ROCE* was 36.04%.
  • Q3 2023 provision for credit losses on loans and leases of $17.1 million was lower compared to Q2 2023 largely driven by lower balances in loans held for investment.
  • Non-performing assets were $30.0 million, or 0.14% of total assets, at September 30, 2023 compared to 0.13% at June 30, 2023. Allowance for credit losses on loans and leases equaled 466% of non-performing loans at September 30, 2023, compared to 494% at June 30, 2023.
  • Q3 2023 book value per share and tangible book value per share* both grew by $3.31, or 7.9% over Q2 2023, driven by strong quarterly earnings combined with decreased AOCI losses of $18.4 million over the same time period.

CEO Commentary

“We are pleased to share our third quarter results as we continued to execute on our strategic priorities and delivered another strong quarter for shareholders,” said Customers Bancorp Chairman and CEO Jay Sidhu. “While the banking industry has broadly stabilized following the events earlier this year, the headwinds of higher funding costs and net interest margin compression have not subsided for most banks. We demonstrated the sustainability of our differentiated deposit strategy by growing core deposits by $1.3 billion in the third quarter resulting in $245 million in total deposit growth. The remaining liquidity inflows, and a modest amount of balance sheet cash, were used to payoff maturing wholesale CDs of $937 million and $510 million in callable FHLB advances. The core deposit growth was broad-based with 13 different channels contributing $25 million or more and benefited from the onboarding of deposits from our new Venture Banking clients. Non-interest bearing deposits as a percentage of deposits increased modestly to 26%. Our net interest margin continued to expand in the quarter in contrast to the industry headwinds. Elevated payoffs and maturities in the acquired Venture Banking portfolio resulted in outsized discount accretion which contributed to our net interest income. Capital levels continued to increase substantially during the quarter as evidenced by a 50 basis point increase in our TCE ratio* and a 100 basis point increase in our CET 1 ratio to end the quarter at 11.3%. We remain well-positioned to continue strengthening our deposit franchise, improve our profitability, and increase our capital ratios,” stated Jay Sidhu.

“Our Q3 2023 GAAP earnings were $83.0 million, or $2.58 per diluted share, well above consensus estimates. At September 30, 2023, our deposit base was well diversified, with approximately 78%2 of total deposits insured. We maintain a strong liquidity position, with $9.7 billion of liquidity immediately available, which covers approximately 239% of uninsured deposits and our loan to deposit ratio was 75%. We continue to be selective on new loan production given the uncertain environment and our commitment to improve our capital ratios and are focusing new loan production where we have a holistic and primary relationship. We are seeing attractive new origination opportunities and we remain firmly committed to serving our clients. We have ample liquidity and capital to support their needs. At September 30, 2023, we had $3.4 billion of cash on hand, which we believe is prudent balance sheet and liquidity management in the current environment. Asset quality remains exceptional with our NPA ratio remaining roughly flat at just 0.14% of total assets and reserve levels are robust at over 465% of total non-performing loans at the end of Q3 2023. Our exposure to higher risk commercial real estate such as the office and retail sectors is minimal, each representing only 1% of the loan portfolio. Continued execution on our strategic priorities has positioned us favorably for success through the remainder of 2023 and into 2024 from a capital, credit, liquidity, interest rate risk and earnings perspective. We will remain disciplined, but opportunistic, with our balance sheet capacity to minimize risk and maintain robust capital levels. We are extremely proud of the progress we made in the quarter and are confident in our risk management capabilities and ability to provide excellent service to our clients in all operating environments. We are excited and optimistic about the opportunities ahead,” Jay Sidhu continued.

Loans and Leases Held for Investment

Loans and leases held for investment were $13.6 billion at September 30, 2023, down $269.7 million, or 1.9%, from June 30, 2023, consistent with our stated goal of purposely moderating loan growth and exiting non-strategic relationships. Loans held for investment decreased modestly in every category, except for relatively small increases in construction loans and in other commercial and industrial ("C&I") loans quarter-over-quarter. Other C&I loans increased $63.2 million, or 6.0% quarter-over-quarter, to $1.1 billion. Loans to mortgage companies decreased $66.0 million, or 6.0% quarter-over-quarter due to lower mortgage activity. Consumer installment loans held for investment decreased $35.6 million, or 3.6% quarter-over-quarter, to $1.0 billion as we continue to execute on our held-for-sale strategy and de-risk the held-for-investment loan portfolio in 2023.

Loans and leases held for investment of $13.6 billion at September 30, 2023 was down $1.8 billion, or 11.5%, year-over-year, largely driven by reduced balances in PPP loans of $1.0 billion, loans to mortgage companies of $666.0 million and consumer installment loans of $431.0 million, offset in part by net growth in the lower risk variable rate specialty lending verticals of $318.2 million. Consumer installment loans held for investment decreased $431.0 million, or 30.8% year-over-year, to $966.9 million as we continue to execute on our held-for-sale strategy and de-risk the held-for-investment loan portfolio in 2023.

Loans Held for Sale

Loans held for sale increased $72.3 million quarter-over-quarter, and were $150.4 million at September 30, 2023 as we continue to build out our held-for-sale strategy in 2023.

The provision for credit losses on loans and leases in Q3 2023 was $17.1 million, compared to $22.4 million in Q2 2023 and a benefit to provision of $7.8 million in Q3 2022. The lower provision in Q3 2023 was primarily due to lower balances in loans held for investment. The benefit to provision in Q3 2022 was primarily due to the sale of $500.0 million of unsecured consumer installment loans, partially offset by loan growth and the recognition of weaker macroeconomic forecasts. The sale transaction resulted in approximately $36.8 million of release in allowance for credit losses, which was included in core earnings* in Q3 2022.

The provision for credit losses on available for sale investment securities in Q3 2023 was $0.8 million, compared to provision of $1.3 million in Q2 2023 and a benefit to provision of $0.2 million in Q3 2022.

Over the last decade, we have developed a suite of commercial loan products with one particularly important common denominator: relatively low credit risk assumption. The Bank’s C&I, loans to mortgage companies, corporate and specialty lending lines of business, and multifamily loans for example, are characterized by conservative underwriting standards and low loss rates. Because of this emphasis, the Bank’s credit quality to date has been incredibly healthy despite an adverse economic environment. Maintaining strong asset quality also requires a highly active portfolio monitoring process. In addition to frequent client outreach and monitoring at the individual loan level, we employ a bottom-up data driven approach to analyze the commercial portfolio.

Total consumer installment loans held for investment at September 30, 2023 were less than 5% of total assets and approximately 7% of total loans and leases held for investment, and were supported by an allowance for credit losses of $58.2 million. At September 30, 2023, our consumer installment portfolio had the following characteristics: average original FICO score of 734, average debt-to-income of 19% and average borrower income of $106 thousand.

Non-performing loans at September 30, 2023 remained relatively stable at 0.22% of total loans and leases, compared to 0.20% at June 30, 2023 and 0.18% at September 30, 2022.

Investment Securities

Our investment securities portfolio, including debt securities classified as available for sale ("AFS") and held to maturity ("HTM") provides periodic cash flows through regular maturities and amortization, can be used as collateral to secure additional funding, and is an important component of our liquidity position.

Critically important to performance during the recent banking crisis are the characteristics of a bank’s securities portfolio. While there may be virtually no credit risk in some of these portfolios, holding longer term and lower yielding securities is creating challenges for many banks. Our securities portfolio is highly liquid, short in duration, and high in yield. At September 30, 2023, our AFS debt securities portfolio had a spot yield of 5.43%, an effective duration of approximately 1.6 years, and approximately 48% are variable rate. Additionally, 64% of our AFS securities portfolio was AAA rated at September 30, 2023.

At September 30, 2023, our HTM debt securities portfolio represented only 5.4% of our total assets at September 30, 2023, had a spot yield of 4.34% and an effective duration of approximately 3.0 years. Additionally, at September 30, 2023, approximately 38% of our HTM securities were AAA rated and 55% were credit enhanced asset backed securities with no current expectation of credit losses.

Total deposits increased $244.9 million, or 1.4%, to $18.2 billion at September 30, 2023 as compared to the prior quarter. Importantly, non-interest bearing demand deposits increased $268.5 million, or 6.0%, to $4.8 billion. Money market deposits increased $495.3 million, or 24.7%, to $2.5 billion, interest bearing demand deposits increased $273.4 million, or 4.9%, to $5.8 billion, and savings deposits increased $70.1 million, or 6.7%, to $1.1 billion. These increases were offset in part by a decrease in time deposits of $862.4 million, or 17.8%, to $4.0 billion. The total average cost of deposits increased by 13 basis points to 3.24% in Q3 2023 from 3.11% in the prior quarter largely driven by the increase in market interest rates during the third quarter. Total estimated uninsured deposits was $4.1 billion1, or 22% of total deposits (inclusive of accrued interest) at September 30, 2023. We are also highly focused on total deposits with contractual term to manage our liquidity profile and the funding of loans and securities.

Total deposits increased $672.9 million, or 3.8%, to $18.2 billion at September 30, 2023 as compared to a year ago. Non-interest bearing demand deposits increased $1.8 billion, or 59.0%, to $4.8 billion, time deposits increased $2.1 billion to $4.0 billion and savings deposits increased $526.4 million, or 88.9%, to $1.1 billion. These increases were offset in part by decreases in money market deposits of $2.4 billion, or 49.1%, to $2.5 billion and interest bearing demand deposits of $1.3 billion, or 18.3%, to $5.8 billion. The total average cost of deposits increased by 176 basis points to 3.24% in Q3 2023 from 1.48% in the prior year primarily due to higher market interest rates and a shift in deposit mix.

Total borrowings decreased $516.2 million, or 21.9%, to $1.8 billion at September 30, 2023 as compared to the prior quarter. This decrease primarily resulted from the repayment of $510 million in callable FHLB advances. As of September 30, 2023, Customers' borrowing capacity with the FRB and FHLB was approximately $8.4 billion, of which $1.5 billion of available capacity was utilized in borrowings and $599.4 million was utilized to collateralize state and municipal deposits.

Total borrowings increased $665.4 million, or 56.9%, to $1.8 billion at September 30, 2023 as compared to a year ago. This increase primarily resulted from an increase in FHLB advances to ensure ample cash on hand given the heightened liquidity risk in the banking system, particularly among regional banks since early March 2023, net of repayments of $510 million in callable FHLB advances in Q3 2023 and federal funds purchased.

Similarly, book value per common share increased to $45.47 from $42.16, and tangible book value per common share* increased to $45.36 from $42.04, at September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023, respectively.

Customers Bancorp's common equity increased $174.7 million to $1.4 billion, and tangible common equity* increased $174.7 million to $1.4 billion, at September 30, 2023 compared to a year ago, respectively, primarily from earnings of $202.8 million and decreased unrealized losses on investment securities in AOCI of $6.3 million (net of taxes), partially offset by $45.1 million of common share repurchases. Similarly, book value per common share increased to $45.47 from $38.46, and tangible book value per common share* increased to $45.36 from $38.35, at September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively.

At the Customers Bancorp level, the CET 1 capital ratio (estimate), total risk based capital ratio (estimate), common equity to total assets ratio and tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio* ("TCE ratio") were 11.3%, 14.3%, 6.5%, and 6.5%, respectively, at September 30, 2023.

At the Customers Bank level, capital levels remained strong and well above regulatory minimums. At September 30, 2023, Tier 1 capital (estimate) and total risk based capital (estimate) were 13.0% and 14.5%, respectively.

“Even though we remain well capitalized by all regulatory measures, we are committed to maintaining our CET 1 capital ratio between 11.0% - 11.5% at year-end 2023. In this environment, we will continue to be selective on new loan production to ensure the strength of our balance sheet and further improve our strong capital ratios,” stated Jay Sidhu.

Key Profitability Trends

Net Interest Income

Net interest income totaled $199.8 million in Q3 2023, an increase of $34.5 million from Q2 2023, primarily due to higher interest income from variable rate lower credit risk specialty lending verticals of $35.9 million, which included the acquired Venture Banking portfolio, interest earning deposits of $16.2 million maintained in response to heightened liquidity risk in the banking system, particularly among regional banks since early March 2023, and investment securities of $6.2 million, reflecting higher average balance and market interest rates. These increases were partially offset by lower interest income on consumer installment loans of $13.0 million reflecting the impact of the sales transactions that occurred late in Q2 2023. In addition, interest expense on deposits and other borrowings increased by $11.7 million in Q3 2023 largely resulting from higher market interest rates.

“We experienced robust net interest income growth in the third quarter due to strong core business performance and outsized discount accretion recognized on the acquired loan portfolio from the FDIC. To provide some context on the outsized discount accretion, Venture Banking loans have more frequent financing needs than traditional commercial loans given ongoing capital raises and other activities of the companies. These activities were essentially paused between March and our acquisition of the loan portfolio in June. When our new Venture Banking team members were fully onboarded in July, they began addressing this backlog in earnest. We estimate approximately $27 million of interest income in Q3 2023 was attributable to outsized discount accretion,” stated Customers Bancorp President Sam Sidhu.

Net interest income totaled $199.8 million in Q3 2023, an increase of $40.7 million from Q3 2022. This increase was due to higher interest income of $140.4 million resulting from increased average balance of interest earning assets of $1.5 billion, higher market interest rates on variable rate loans, investments and interest earning deposits, and discount accretion on the acquired Venture Banking portfolio, offset in part by higher interest expenses on deposits and other borrowings of $99.7 million primarily resulting from increased market interest rates and higher average balances of other borrowings. Interest-earning asset growth was primarily driven by increases in interest earning deposits and investments, C&I loans and leases, mostly in the variable rate lower credit risk specialty lending verticals, offset in part by decreases in PPP loans, as the PPP program was substantially completed in Q1 2023, consumer installment loans and commercial loans to mortgage companies. Total consumer installment loans decreased in Q3 2023 as compared to Q3 2022, as installment loans held for investment decreased primarily for risk management purposes and implementation of our held-for-sale strategy.

Non-interest income totaled $17.8 million for Q3 2023, an increase of $1.8 million compared to Q2 2023. The increase was primarily due to a loss of $5.0 million realized from the sale of non-strategic short-term syndicated capital call lines of credit within our Specialty Lending vertical that the Bank exited completely in Q2 2023 offset in part by decreases in death benefits paid by insurance carriers under bank-owned life insurance policies of $3.0 million.

Non-interest income totaled $17.8 million for Q3 2023, an increase of $26.8 million compared to Q3 2022. The increase was primarily due to a loss of $23.5 million realized from the sale of $500 million of consumer installment loans in Q3 2022 and an increase in loan fees of $3.0 million resulting from increased servicing-related revenue and unused line of credit fees.

The management of non-interest expenses remains a priority for us. However, this will not deter us from making investments in new technologies to support efficient and responsible growth in the future.

Non-interest expenses totaled $89.5 million in Q3 2023, an increase of $0.2 million compared to Q2 2023. The increase was primarily attributable to $4.1 million of expenses from a settlement with a third party PPP service provider and an increase of $0.7 million in salaries and employee benefits resulting from the onboarding of the Venture Banking team. These increases were partially offset by decreases of $1.2 million in FDIC assessments, non-income taxes and regulatory fees, $1.2 million in other expenses primarily due to lower provision for operating losses, $0.9 million in loan servicing from loan portfolios serviced by third parties, $0.7 million in technology, communication and bank operations mostly due to lower fees paid to BM Technologies and $0.6 million in professional fees.

Non-interest expenses totaled $89.5 million in Q3 2023, an increase of $13.3 million compared to Q3 2022. The increase was primarily attributable to $4.1 million of expenses from a settlement with a third party PPP service provider, and increases of $6.0 million in FDIC assessments, non-income taxes and regulatory fees resulting from higher FDIC assessment rates, $2.6 million in salaries and employee benefits primarily due to headcount, annual merit increases, incentives and stock awards, $2.3 million in professional fees mostly for technology, compliance and risk management, $1.4 million in commercial lease depreciation from growth and $1.0 million in other expenses. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $3.9 million in deposit servicing-related expenses mostly due to lower servicing fees and the discontinuation of interchange maintenance fees paid to BM Technologies offset by higher fees paid for software as a service.

Taxes

Income tax expense increased by $2.7 million to $23.5 million in Q3 2023 from $20.8 million in Q2 2023 primarily due to higher pre-tax income, partially offset by tax expense of $4.1 million on surrendered bank-owned life insurance policies recognized in Q2 2023 and increased income tax credits.

Income tax expense increased by $5.6 million to $23.5 million in Q3 2023 from $17.9 million in Q3 2022 primarily due to higher pre-tax income, partially offset by increased income tax credits.

The effective tax rate for Q3 2023 was 21%. Customers expects the full-year 2023 effective tax rate to be approximately 22% to 24%.

Outlook

“Looking forward, our strategy and risk management principles will remain unchanged. We’re focused on managing risk, strengthening our deposit franchise, improving our profitability and increasing our capital ratios. Our deposits will be relatively flat with continued improvement in the quality of deposits, reducing higher cost wholesale deposits with lower cost core deposits. Following the robust 3.70% NIM in Q3 2023 which was boosted by the outsized discount accretion, we expect a normalization of NIM to roughly 3.20%-3.25% in Q4 2023. Core EPS (excluding PPP)* remains on track for, and will likely well exceed, our target of $6.00 per diluted share with a core return on common equity* of over 15%. Operating efficiency has and will continue to be a differentiator of our business model, and we will continue to only make investments that generate long-term positive operating leverage. We remain committed to maintaining a CET 1 ratio between 11.0%-11.5% at year-end 2023 and have also achieved the tangible book value per share target of $45.00, inclusive of the impact of AOCI, a full quarter early. We are committed to preserving superior credit quality, managing interest rate risk, maintaining robust liquidity, further improving our capital ratios and generating positive operating leverage,” concluded Sam Sidhu.

(1) Metric is a spot balance for the last day of each quarter presented.

(2) Customers' reasons for the use of these non-GAAP measures and a detailed reconciliation between the non-GAAP measures and the comparable GAAP amounts are included at the end of this document.

(3) Regulatory capital ratios are estimated for Q3 2023 and actual for the remaining periods. In accordance with regulatory capital rules, Customers elected to apply the CECL capital transition provisions which delayed the effects of CECL on regulatory capital for two years until January 1, 2022, followed by a three-year transition period. The cumulative CECL capital transition impact as of December 31, 2021 which amounted to $61.6 million will be phased in at 25% per year beginning on January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024. As of September 30, 2023, our regulatory capital ratios reflected 50%, or $30.8 million, benefit associated with the CECL transition provisions.

(1) For presentation in this table, average balances and the corresponding average yields for investment securities are based upon historical cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts.

(2) Includes owner occupied commercial real estate loans.

(3) Includes non-accrual loans, the effect of which is to reduce the yield earned on loans and leases, and deferred loan fees.

(4) Total costs of deposits (including interest bearing and non-interest bearing) were 3.24%, 3.11% and 1.48% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, respectively.

(5) Non-GAAP tax-equivalent basis, using an estimated marginal tax rate of 26% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, June 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022, presented to approximate interest income as a taxable asset and excluding net interest income from PPP loans and related borrowings, along with the related PPP loan balances and PPP fees receivable from interest-earning assets. Management uses non-GAAP measures to present historical periods comparable to the current period presentation. In addition, management believes the use of these non-GAAP measures provides additional clarity when assessing Customers’ financial results. These disclosures should not be viewed as substitutes for results determined to be in accordance with U.S. GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other entities.

(1) For presentation in this table, average balances and the corresponding average yields for investment securities are based upon historical cost, adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts.

(2) Includes owner occupied commercial real estate loans.

(3) Includes non-accrual loans, the effect of which is to reduce the yield earned on loans and leases, and deferred loan fees.

(4) Total costs of deposits (including interest bearing and non-interest bearing) were 3.23% and 0.80% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

(5) Non-GAAP tax-equivalent basis, using an estimated marginal tax rate of 26% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, presented to approximate interest income as a taxable asset and excluding net interest income from PPP loans and related borrowings, along with the related PPP loan balances and PPP fees receivable from interest-earning assets. Management uses non-GAAP measures to present historical periods comparable to the current period presentation. In addition, management believes the use of these non-GAAP measures provides additional clarity when assessing Customers’ financial results. These disclosures should not be viewed as substitutes for results determined to be in accordance with U.S. GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other entities.

(6) Not meaningful.

We believe that the non-GAAP measurements disclosed within this document are useful for investors, regulators, management and others to evaluate our core results of operations and financial condition relative to other financial institutions. These non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude from corresponding GAAP measures the impact of certain elements that we do not believe are representative of our ongoing financial results, which we believe enhance an overall understanding of our performance and increases comparability of our period to period results. Investors should consider our performance and financial condition as reported under GAAP and all other relevant information when assessing our performance or financial condition. The non-GAAP measures presented are not necessarily comparable to non-GAAP measures that may be presented by other financial institutions. Although non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used in the evaluation of a company, they have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results of operations or financial condition as reported under GAAP.

The following tables present reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP measures disclosed within this document.
