BETHESDA, Md., Oct. 25, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eagle Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ: EGBN), the parent company of EagleBank (the "Bank"), today announced net income of $27.4 million for the third quarter 2023, compared to net income of $28.7 million for the second quarter 2023 (the "prior quarter") and $37.3 million for the third quarter 2022 (the "year-ago quarter"). Net income (basic and diluted) was $0.91 per share for the third quarter 2023, compared to $0.94 per share for the prior quarter, and $1.16 per share for the year-ago quarter.

The $1.3 million decrease in earnings from the prior quarter was attributable to several items including lower noninterest income as the prior quarter included nonrecurring recognition of income from a Small Business Investment Company ("SBIC") investment, lower net interest income as the cost of interest bearing liabilities outpaced income on interest-earning assets, and a reversal of $1.6 million of interest income because of a loan entering nonperforming status in the quarter.

Susan G. Riel, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company commented, "The Company's steady performance this quarter was the result of continued efforts of the EagleBank team to offer our customers the products and services they need to run their businesses. As a result, our earnings and margin, absent the reversal of interest income, continued to stabilize. Additionally, our funding mix improved with deposit inflows and paydowns of short-term debt, and our asset quality metrics and regulatory capital ratios remain strong.

"The EagleBank team is working diligently to position the Company's balance sheet to enable appropriate diversification of assets and loans, and is building capabilities to drive core deposit growth. These strategies will position the Company for future sustainable growth and an enhanced earnings profile. I am excited about the future of EagleBank and its ability to serve our communities and customers through the successful execution of these strategies.   
  
"We once again thank all of our employees for their commitment in serving the needs of our clients and communities. Additionally, we remain committed to a culture of respect, diversity and inclusion in both the workplace and the communities we serve."

Third Quarter 2023 Highlights

• The funding mix continued to improve as deposits at quarter-end were $8.4 billion, up $658 million, or 8.5%, from the prior quarter-end, and short-term borrowings declined $537 million, or 29.2%, ending at $1.3 billion. The increase in deposits was primarily from growth in savings and money market and time deposits. Brokered deposits were down $38 million, declining to 29.1% of deposits at quarter-end, from 32.1% a quarter ago. The decrease in borrowings was from repayment of all Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") borrowings. Remaining short-term borrowings at quarter-end were entirely from the Bank Term Funding Program ("BTFP"), which remained unchanged from the prior quarter-end.
• The net interest margin ("NIM") was 2.43% for the third quarter 2023, compared to 2.49% for the prior quarter. The reversal of $1.6 million of interest income, reduced the NIM by 6 basis points.
• The Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.45 per share.
• At quarter-end, the common equity and tangible common equity ratios were 10.89% and 10.04%¹, respectively.
• Loans at quarter-end were $7.9 billion, up $150 million, or 1.9%, from the prior quarter-end. This was the eighth consecutive quarterly increase.
• Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets was 0.64% and the net charge-off (annualized) for the quarter was 0.02% of average total loans.
• The provision for credit losses was $5.6 million for the quarter, as compared to $5.2 million the prior quarter. The allowance for credit losses as a percent of total loans was 1.05% at quarter-end; up from 1.00% a quarter ago.

Income Statement

• Net interest income was $70.7 million for the third quarter 2023, compared to $71.8 million for the prior quarter and $83.9 million for the year-ago quarter. The decrease in net interest income from the prior quarter was primarily driven by the continued shift of deposit balances by customers from noninterest bearing demand deposits to interest bearing accounts. Loan interest income increased despite the reversal of $1.6 million of interest income because of a loan entering nonperforming status in the quarter.

• Net interest margin ("NIM") was 2.43% for the third quarter 2023, compared to 2.49% for the prior quarter and 3.02% for the year-ago quarter. The reversal of $1.6 million of interest income, reduced the NIM by 6 basis points.
  • The yield on the loan portfolio was 6.73% for the third quarter 2023, compared to 6.64% for the prior quarter and 5.10% for the year-ago quarter. The increase of 9 basis points from the prior quarter was from variable rate loans adjusting upward and from higher rates on newly originated loans, offset by the reversal of $1.6 million of interest income. The reversal of interest income reduced the yield on the loan portfolio by 8 basis points.
  • The cost of funds was 3.39% for third quarter 2023, compared to 3.20% for the prior quarter and 1.09% for the year-ago quarter.³ The increase of 19 basis points from the prior quarter was primarily due to the impact of higher interest rates paid on deposits along with a continued shift in noninterest bearing deposit accounts to interest bearing deposit accounts.
• Pre-provision net revenue ("PPNR"),⁴ a non-GAAP measure, was $39.4 million, or 1.31% of average assets for the third quarter 2023, down from $42.4 million and 1.43%, respectively. This decrease from the prior quarter in both PPNR and PPNR as a percent of average assets was primarily attributable to the prior quarter including nonrecurring Small Business Investment Company ("SBIC") income in noninterest income.

• Provision for credit losses on loans was $5.6 million for the third quarter 2023, compared to $5.2 million for the prior quarter and $3.0 million for the year-ago quarter. The increase in the third quarter 2023 provision over the prior quarter was primarily driven by increases in qualitative reserves combined with a smaller increase in the quantitative reserve. The increase in qualitative reserves was driven by increases in early-stage past dues and perceived weakness in the commercial real estate ("CRE") market. The increase in quantitative reserve was primarily due to loan growth during the quarter, particularly in longer-life categories that carry corresponding higher reserves as well as slowing prepayment speeds in certain loan categories due to higher interest rates, partly offset by modest improvements in the unemployment forecast.

• Noninterest income was $6.3 million for the third quarter 2023, as compared to $8.6 million for the prior quarter and $5.3 million for the year-ago quarter. The primary driver for the decrease in the third quarter 2023 from the prior quarter was the prior quarter included nonrecurring income of $2.8 million from an SBIC fund.

• Noninterest expense was $37.6 million for the third quarter 2023 compared to $38.0 million for the prior quarter and $36.2 million for the year-ago quarter. Noninterest expense was down $345 thousand from the prior quarter, primarily due to lower overall expenses offset by higher FDIC fees, which were up $761 thousand from the prior quarter on higher assessment fees.

• Efficiency ratio⁵ was 48.8% for the third quarter 2023, compared to 47.2% for the prior quarter.

• Effective income tax rate for the third quarter 2023 was 20.9%, compared to 22.2% for the prior quarter. The decrease in the effective tax rate this quarter was primarily driven by a reduction in the permanent tax adjustment for compensation to covered employees.

Balance Sheet

• Total assets were $11.2 billion at September 30, 2023, up 1.2% from a quarter ago and up 4.2% from a year ago. The increase in assets from a quarter ago was primarily from an increase in loans and interest bearing deposits with banks and other short-term investments, offset by lower balances on investment securities.

• Investment securities had a balance of $2.5 billion at September 30, 2023, down 3.2% from a quarter ago and down 9.3% from a year ago. The decrease from the prior quarter-end was primarily from principal paydowns, maturities received and lower fair values on AFS securities. No new investments were purchased during the third quarter of 2023.
  
  Investment securities held-to-maturity had a fair value that was $160 million less than carrying value at quarter-end, compared to a difference of $132 million a quarter ago. The decrease in fair values from the prior quarter-end were primarily from the impact of the increasing interest rate environment on market valuations.

• Total loans (excluding loans held for sale) were $7.9 billion at September 30, 2023, up 1.9% from a quarter ago and up 8.4% from a year ago. The increase in total loans from the prior quarter-end was driven by growth in CRE loans (income producing and owner occupied) and construction loans for commercial and residential properties as period-end balances for commercial & industrial loans were down.
  
  At September 30, 2023, income-producing commercial real estate loans secured by office properties other than owner-occupied properties ("CRE office loans") were 12.0% of the total loan portfolio. Our CRE office loans are primarily located in the Washington DC market; with 24.5% in the District of Columbia, 33.9% in Washington's Maryland suburbs, 34.0% in Northern Virginia, and 7.6% located outside these markets.

• Allowance for credit losses was 1.05% of total loans at September 30, 2023, compared to 1.00% a quarter ago, and 1.04% a year ago. See commentary above in section "Provision for Credit Losses on Loans."
  
  Net charge-off was $340 thousand for the quarter, which as a percent of average loans (excluding loans held for sale)⁶ was 0.02% for the third quarter 2023, compared to 0.29% a quarter ago, and net recovery of less than 0.01% the year-ago quarter. Charge-offs for the third quarter 2023 were related to three SBA loans.

• Nonperforming loans and assets were $70.4 million and $71.9 million, respectively, at September 30, 2023.
  • Nonperforming loans ("NPLs") as a percent of loans were 0.89% at September 30, 2023, compared to 0.37% a quarter ago and 0.10% a year ago. The increase from a quarter ago was primarily from the addition of one multi-family credit in the District of Columbia.
  • Nonperforming assets ("NPAs") as a percent of assets were 0.64% at September 30, 2023, compared to 0.28% a quarter ago and 0.09% a year ago. The increase in NPAs from the prior quarter are related to the same NPL discussed above. At quarter end, other real estate owned consisted of three properties with an aggregate value of $1.5 million.
  • Loans 30-89 days late were $46.5 million at September 30, 2023, up from $41.0 million a quarter ago and $16.2 million a year ago. The increase from the prior quarter was primarily from one office property in northern Virginia and one assisted living facility in Maryland, offset by the migration of the multi-family credit to nonperforming.

• Total deposits were $8.4 billion at September 30, 2023, up 8.5% from a quarter ago and down 4.4% from a year ago. The increase from the prior quarter-end was primarily attributable to an increase in savings/money market and time deposits. Brokered deposits were 29.1% of deposits at quarter-end, down from 32.1% a quarter ago. The decrease in brokered funds as a percent of deposits was from both the increase in total deposits and a decline in brokered demand deposits. The increase in deposits lowered the loan-to-deposit ratio to 95% at September 30, 2023, down from 101% a quarter ago.
  
  For the quarter, average noninterest bearing deposits to average total deposits was 25.1% for the third quarter 2023, down from 30.1% a quarter ago and down from 38.4% for the year-ago quarter.
  
  Total estimated uninsured deposits at September 30, 2023 were $2.5 billion⁷, or 29.6% of deposits.

• Other short-term borrowings were $1.3 billion at September 30, 2023, down from $1.8 billion a quarter ago, and up from $515 million a year ago. The decrease in borrowings of $537 million from a quarter ago was primarily driven by the pay down of all FHLB borrowings enabled by the increase in deposits. BTFP borrowings were $1.3 billion at September 30, 2023, unchanged from the prior quarter, with a rate of 4.53% for a term of up to one year from the date the proceeds were borrowed.
  
  As of September 30, 2023, the Company had aggregate available borrowing capacity of $2.3 billion, which includes $2.0 billion in additional aggregate capacity to borrow with the FHLB and BTFP on assets that have been pledged and unencumbered securities totaling approximately $270 million available for pledging to the FHLB or BTFP.

• Total shareholders’ equity was $1.2 billion at September 30, 2023, down 0.3% from a quarter ago, and down 0.3% from a year ago. The decrease in shareholders' equity of $3.9 million from the prior quarter-end was primarily from lower valuations of AFS securities and dividends declared, partially offset by net income.
  • Book value per share was $40.64, down $0.14 from a quarter ago, and up $2.62 from a year ago.
  • Tangible book value per share⁸ was $37.12, down $0.17 from a quarter ago, and up $2.35 from a year ago.

GAAP Reconciliation - Notes

Tangible common equity to tangible assets (the "tangible common equity ratio"), tangible book value per common share, average tangible common equity, and the return on average tangible common equity are non-GAAP financial measures derived from GAAP based amounts. The Company calculates the tangible common equity ratio by excluding the balance of intangible assets from common shareholders' equity and dividing by tangible assets. The Company calculates tangible book value per common share by dividing tangible common equity by common shares outstanding, as compared to book value per common share, which the Company calculates by dividing common shareholders' equity by common shares outstanding. The Company calculates the annualized return on average tangible common equity ratio by dividing net income available to common shareholders by average tangible common equity, which is calculated by excluding the average balance of intangible assets from the average common shareholders’ equity. The Company considers this information important to shareholders as tangible equity is a measure that is consistent with the calculation of capital for bank regulatory purposes, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk based ratios, and as such is useful for investors, regulators, management and others to evaluate capital adequacy and to compare against other financial institutions. The above tables provide reconciliations of these financial measures defined by GAAP with non-GAAP financial measures.

Efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure calculated by dividing GAAP non-interest expense by the sum of GAAP net interest income and GAAP non-interest (loss) income. The Company believes that reporting the non-GAAP efficiency ratio more closely measures its effectiveness of controlling operational activities. The table above shows the calculation of the efficiency ratio from these GAAP measures.

PPNR is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from GAAP based amounts. The Company calculates PPNR by subtracting noninterest expenses from the sum of net interest income and noninterest income. PPNR to Average Assets is calculated by dividing the PPNR amount by average assets to obtain a percentage. The Company considers this information important to shareholders because it illustrates revenue excluding the impact of provisions and reversals to the allowance for credit losses on loans. The table in the "Income Statement" section of this earnings release provides a reconciliation of the nearest GAAP measure to PPNR and PPNR to Average Assets.
