LAREDO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
International Bancshares Corporation (NASDAQ:IBOC), one of the largest independent bank holding companies in Texas, today reported net income for the three months ended Sept. 30, 2021 was $54.6 million or $.86 diluted earnings per common share ($.86 per share basic), compared to $42.7 million or $.67 diluted earnings per common share ($.68 per share basic) for the same period in 2020, representing an increase of 28.4 percent in diluted earnings per share and an increase of 27.9 percent in net income. Net income for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2021 was $197.4 million or $3.11 diluted earnings per common share ($3.12 per share basic), compared to $119.1 million or $1.86 diluted earnings per common share ($1.86 per share basic) for the same period of 2020, representing an increase of 67.2 percent in diluted earnings per share and an increase of 65.7 percent in net income.
Net income for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2021 was significantly impacted by the sale in the second quarter of an equity interest in a merchant banking investment held by one of our non-bank subsidiaries, totaling $42.8 million, net of tax. Net income for the period was also positively affected by a decrease in the provision for credit losses compared to the same period of 2020. The credit loss expense charged to operations increased throughout 2020 as a result of increases in the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) due to deteriorating economic conditions as a result of the novel Coronavirus Disease 2019 (“COVID-19”) and the impact of those conditions on certain segments of our loan portfolio. Economic conditions during the first nine months of 2021 have stabilized or improved in certain segments. The pool-specific qualitative loss factors management deemed appropriate for the ACL calculation at Dec. 31, 2020 remained constant in the Sept. 30, 2021 ACL calculation, which positively impacted the calculation and resulted in a decrease of approximately $24.9 million, net of tax, in the credit loss expense charged to operations for the nine months ended Sept. 30, 2021 compared to the same period of 2020. Net interest income continues to be negatively impacted by the Federal Reserve Board (“FRB”) action to keep interest rates low since March 2020.
“The global health crisis resulting from COVID-19 has continued to impact business. Economic conditions have continued to improve, but have not fully recovered to pre-pandemic levels and the timeline for full recovery remains uncertain. The vaccines for COVID-19 have become widely available to the entire population; however, large sectors of the population have continued to choose not to take the vaccine resulting in a prolonging of the pandemic. The continued improvement in forecasted economic conditions positively impacted our ACL calculation in 2021, resulting in lower credit loss expense compared to the same periods of 2020.”
“We continue to be confident in our exceptionally strong capital position, significant liquidity and strong relationship deposit base. Management strategies that were established at the onset of the pandemic remain in place and we remain fully committed to making the best decisions possible to protect the future of our company for our customers, employees and shareholders,” said Dennis E. Nixon President and CEO. “We will continue to monitor the crisis and the impact on our business and are confident that we are making prudent choices to ensure that we continue the 55-plus years of success we have delivered.”
Total assets at Sept. 30, 2021 were approximately $15.7 billion compared to approximately $14.0 billion at Dec. 31, 2020. Total net loans were approximately $7.3 billion at Sept. 30, 2021 compared to $7.4 billion at Dec. 31, 2020. Deposits were approximately $12.2 billion at Sept. 30, 2021 compared to approximately $10.7 billion at Dec. 31, 2020.
