Insights

The reported decrease in net income for Enterprise Bancorp, Inc. during the fourth quarter and the full year of 2023 is a critical metric for investors. The year-over-year decline from $12.3 million to $7.9 million for the quarter and from $42.7 million to $38.1 million for the full year, indicates a contraction in profitability. This contraction could be reflective of the broader economic challenges faced by the banking industry, including higher interest rates and an inverted yield curve. Such factors often lead to margin compression as the cost of deposits increases, outpacing the interest income generated from loans.

It is also noteworthy that the bank's loan portfolio grew by 12% year-over-year, which suggests an aggressive lending strategy that could potentially offset some of the interest margin pressures. However, the decrease in total deposits towards the year-end is an area of concern, as it may indicate a reduction in customer deposits, which are a primary source of low-cost funding for banks.

Enterprise Bancorp's net interest margin of 3.29% is a key indicator of the bank's lending profitability. While this figure is robust, the reported decrease from the previous quarter, due to rising deposit costs, could signal tightening net interest income in future quarters, especially if the trend continues.

The growth in wealth assets under management and administration by 21% year-over-year to $1.3 billion is a positive signal for Enterprise Bancorp, Inc. This growth indicates the bank's capability to attract and manage client assets, which is particularly important in a challenging economic environment. Wealth management services can provide a stable source of fee-based income, which is less sensitive to interest rate fluctuations than traditional banking activities such as lending.

With the bank celebrating its 35th anniversary and highlighting its expansion to 27 full-service locations, it demonstrates a commitment to growth and community presence. This expansion strategy could help in diversifying the bank's revenue streams and strengthening its customer base. However, the effectiveness of these strategies should be continuously monitored to ensure that they contribute positively to the bank's financial performance.

The broader economic context in which Enterprise Bancorp operates is essential to understanding the bank's financial performance. The higher interest rates and an inverted yield curve mentioned by the CEO are macroeconomic factors that typically signal a cautious or negative economic outlook. An inverted yield curve, where short-term rates exceed long-term rates, is often considered a precursor to an economic slowdown or recession.

These conditions can adversely affect banks by narrowing the spread between what they earn on long-term loans and pay on short-term deposits. Enterprise Bancorp's ability to navigate these headwinds and maintain a stable net interest margin, albeit slightly decreased, is a testament to their risk management and strategic planning. Investors should consider these macroeconomic indicators when evaluating the bank's future performance, as continued economic challenges could impact the bank's profitability and growth prospects.

LOWELL, Mass., Jan. 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Enterprise Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: EBTC), parent of Enterprise Bank, announced its financial results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2023. Net income amounted to $7.9 million, or $0.64 per diluted common share, for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to $12.3 million, or $1.01, for the three months ended December 31, 2022. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2023, amounted to $38.1 million, or $3.11 per diluted common share, compared to $42.7 million, or $3.52 per diluted common share, for the year ended December 31, 2022.

Selected financial results at or for the three months ended December 31, 2023, were as follows:

  • The return on average assets and average equity were 0.69% and 10.21%, respectively.
  • Tax-equivalent net interest margin (non-GAAP) ("net interest margin") was 3.29%.
  • Total loans increased 5% compared to September 30, 2023, and 12% compared to December 31, 2022.
  • Total deposits decreased 2% compared to September 30, 2023, and 1% compared to December 31, 2022.
  • Wealth assets under management and administration amounted to $1.3 billion and increased 10% compared to September 30, 2023, and 21% compared to December 31, 2022.

Chief Executive Officer Jack Clancy commented, "On January 3, we celebrated the 35th anniversary of our opening. I am so appreciative to all our customers, shareholders, directors, and team members for your continued support through the years. Our numerous accomplishments include growing to $4.47 billion in total assets, $1.32 billion in wealth assets under management and administration, and 27 full-service locations. Our anniversary is a tremendous milestone built upon a history of shared values, collaborative efforts, and a steadfast commitment to all of our stakeholders."

Mr. Clancy continued, "We performed well in a challenging year for the banking industry as higher interest rates and an inverted yield curve contributed to margin compression. Full year loan growth, excluding PPP loans, was 12% for the second consecutive year, and deposits, while decreasing at the end of the quarter as often occurs at year end, were stable throughout the year." He continued, "Net interest margin was a solid 3.29% for the fourth quarter, a decrease from the third quarter principally because of higher deposit costs. Margin was stable during the fourth quarter with December monthly results at 3.30%. Our liquidity position remains very favorable as we closed the year with wholesale funding of less than 1% of total assets."

Executive Chairman & Founder George Duncan added, "We have navigated through many headwinds and tailwinds over our 35-year history and this past year was certainly a memorable one. I am grateful to all team members for the exceptional service provided to our customers during the year. We remain committed to continuous organic growth supported through investments in our communities, team members, technology and products and services. As a result of our approach, efforts, and the long-term opportunities, in and around our markets, I am very excited about our future."

Mr. Duncan also highlighted, "In November 2023, we were recognized for the twelfth consecutive year on the Boston Globe’s Top Places to Work list. Enterprise Bank ranked 9th for Large Companies and was the highest rated bank in our category. I want to personally thank and commend our entire dedicated team for their continual efforts in fostering an employee-centric culture whose foundation is based on respect, trust, care, personal accountability and excellence."

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2023, amounted to $36.5 million, a decrease of $5.6 million, or 13%, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was due largely to an increase in deposit interest expense of $12.8 million, which resulted from continued interest rate increases and a change in deposit mix and, to a lesser extent, a decrease in income on interest-earning assets of $1.0 million, partially offset by an increase in loan interest income of $8.9 million resulting from strong growth.

Net Interest Margin

Three months ended – December 31, 2023, compared to September 30, 2023

Net interest margin was 3.29% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to 3.46% for the three months ended September 30, 2023. Margin for the month of December 2023 was 3.30%.

Net interest margin compared to the prior quarter was impacted by the following factors:

  • Average interest-earning deposits with banks decreased $88.3 million, or 34%, while the yield increased 12 basis points.
  • Average loan balances increased $95.2 million, or 3%, and the tax-equivalent yield increased 11 basis points.
  • Average total deposits decreased $25.2 million, or 1%, while the yield increased 30 basis points.

Three months ended – December 31, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022

Net interest margin was 3.29% for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to 3.81% for the three months ended December 31, 2022.

Net interest margin compared to the prior year quarter was impacted by the following factors:

  • Average interest-earning deposits with banks decreased $188.5 million, or 53%, while the yield increased 168 basis points.
  • Average debt securities decreased $155.9 million, or 16%, while the tax-equivalent yield increased 5 basis points.
  • Average loan balances increased $349.6 million, or 11%, and the tax-equivalent yield increased 54 basis points.
  • Average total deposits decreased $33.3 million, or 1%, while the yield increased 125 basis points.

The decrease in net interest margin over the respective periods was due primarily to an increase in deposit costs that exceeded the increase in loan yields. Deposit costs increased due to higher market and competitor interest rates as well as a change in mix, as deposits migrated from lower yielding checking and savings products into higher yielding money market and certificate of deposit products compared to the respective periods. In addition, the Company experienced strong loan growth over the respective periods, funded primarily by interest-earning deposits with banks, investment cash flows including the sale of debt securities in June 2023, partially offset by deposit outflows.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses for the three months ended December 31, 2023, amounted to $2.5 million, compared to $1.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The provision expense for the fourth quarter of 2023 resulted primarily from growth in the Company's loan portfolio and off-balance sheet commitments, partially offset by the impact of a reduction in general reserve factors related primarily to improved economic metrics in our allowance for credit loss ("ACL") model relative to the prior quarter.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2023, amounted to $5.5 million, an increase of $1.3 million, or 32%, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2022. Non-interest income in the prior year period included losses on sales of debt securities of $3.0 million and a gain on the sale of insurance commissions of $2.0 million. Excluding these items, non-interest income for the three months ended December 31, 2023 increased $335 thousand, or 6%, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2022.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense for the three months ended December 31, 2023, amounted to $28.2 million, an increase of $57 thousand, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2022. Salaries and benefits expense, excluding performance-based compensation, increased $422 thousand, and was offset by a decrease in performance-based compensation expense of $624 thousand.

Income Taxes

The effective tax rate was 30.3% and 24.7% for the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate resulted primarily from an increase in state taxes including a transfer of funds from the Bank's investment subsidiary corporations and annual book to tax return adjustments that increased tax expense in the fourth quarter of 2023. The effective tax rate was 25.7% and 23.9% for the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Balance Sheet

Total assets amounted to $4.47 billion at December 31, 2023, compared to $4.44 billion at December 31, 2022, an increase of $27.7 million, or 1%.

Total interest-earning deposits with banks, which consist of overnight and short-term investments, amounted to $19.1 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $230.7 million at December 31, 2022. The decrease of $211.5 million, or 92%, was related primarily to funding loan growth.

Total investment securities at fair value amounted to $668.2 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $820.4 million at December 31, 2022. The decrease of $152.2 million, or 19%, was attributable principally to sales of debt securities of $84.8 million in June 2023 and principal pay-downs, calls and maturities of $88.2 million. Unrealized losses on debt securities amounted to $102.9 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $124.1 million at December 31, 2022, a decrease of $21.3 million, or 17%. At December 31, 2023, Management determined that no ACL for available-for-sale securities was necessary.

Total loans amounted to $3.57 billion at December 31, 2023, compared to $3.18 billion at December 31, 2022. The increase of $387.1 million, or 12%, was due primarily to increases in commercial real estate loans of $143.3 million and commercial construction loans of $161.1 million.

Total deposits amounted to $3.98 billion at December 31, 2023, compared to $4.04 billion at December 31, 2022, a decrease of $58.3 million, or 1%. The Company experienced a shift in deposit mix at December 31, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022, resulting from customers moving funds out of lower yielding checking and savings products (which together, decreased 13%) into higher yielding money market and certificate of deposit products (which together, increased 15%).

Total shareholders' equity amounted to $329.1 million at December 31, 2023, compared to $282.3 million at December 31, 2022. The increase of $46.9 million, or 17%, was due primarily to an increase in retained earnings of $26.8 million and a decrease in the accumulated other comprehensive loss of $16.4 million.

Credit Quality

Selected credit quality metrics at December 31, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022, are as follows:

  • The ACL for loans amounted to $59.0 million, or 1.65% of total loans, compared to $52.6 million, or 1.66% of total loans.
  • The reserve for unfunded commitments (included in other liabilities) amounted to $7.1 million, compared to $4.3 million.
  • Non-performing loans amounted to $11.4 million, or 0.32% of total loans, compared to $6.1 million, or 0.19% of total loans. The increase resulted primarily from one individually evaluated commercial relationship downgraded in the third quarter of 2023, which was partially offset by principal pay-downs and credit upgrades.

Wealth Management

Wealth assets are not carried as assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheets.

Wealth assets under management amounted to $1.08 billion at December 31, 2023. The increase of $186.3 million, or 21%, compared to December 31, 2022 was due primarily to net asset growth from new and expanded client relationships and an increase in market values.

Wealth assets under administration amounted to $242.3 million at December 31, 2023 an increase of $43.8 million, or 22%, compared to December 31, 2022, resulting primarily from an increase in market values.
