Newtek Business Services Corp. Reports Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Rhea-AI Summary

Newtek Business Services reported a significant increase in SBA 7(a) loan fundings, achieving $200.6 million in Q2 2022, up 112.8% year-over-year. However, total investment income fell 47.5% to $19.2 million, influenced by the absence of non-recurring Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) fee income.

The company forecasts an annual dividend of $2.40 to $2.90 per share, maintaining confidence in its growth trajectory amid challenging market conditions.

Record SBA 7(a) Loan Fundings Increased by 112.8% in the Second Quarter of 2022 Over the Same Period Last Year

BOCA RATON, Fla., Aug. 03, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Newtek Business Services Corp. (“Newtek” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: NEWT), an internally managed business development company (“BDC”), announced today its financial and operating results for three and six months ended June 30, 2022.

Barry Sloane, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer said, “We are very pleased to report our results for the second quarter 2022. We are proud to have been able to deliver what we believe are strong results that meet our earnings and dividends forecasts. Furthermore, we were able to grow SBA 7(a) loan fundings by 112.8%, to a record $200.6 million, and increase loan units funded by 154%, for the three months ended June 30, 2022. In addition, we funded $62.0 million of SBA 7(a) loans in July 2022. We are particularly proud because we believe that these record loan fundings were accomplished without reducing the credit quality of our borrowers; to the contrary, we believe that we tightened credit standards which resulted in a reduced approval-rate percentage of loans presented to the loan committee. Our year-over-year comparables across some of our metrics, however, were down, even though we posted strong results. We believe this decline was primarily attributable to the fact the first two quarters of 2021 earnings materially benefited from Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") fee income. As previously stated, this PPP fee income is non-recurring, and has since been replaced with earnings from our core and growing business lines and activities. We firmly believe that our trajectory and growth will allow us to ultimately surpass the earnings achieved during the PPP and pandemic-affected environment, and that our business operations and strategy, including the pending acquisition of the National Bank of New York City ("NBNYC"), which remains subject to regulatory approvals, and becoming a publicly traded bank holding company, is occurring at an advantageous time."

Lending Highlights

• Newtek Small Business Finance, LLC (“NSBF”) funded a record $200.6 million of SBA 7(a) loans during the three months ended June 30, 2022; a 112.8% increase over the $94.3 million of SBA 7(a) loans funded for the three months ended June 30, 2021.
• NSBF funded a record $363.9 million in SBA 7(a) loans for the six months ended June 30, 2022, which represents an 83.2% increase over $198.6 million SBA 7(a) loan fundings for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
• NSBF funded $62.0 million SBA 7(a) loans during July 2022.
• NSBF forecasts funding approximately $750 million of SBA 7(a) loans for the full year 2022, which would represent a 33.8% increase over $560.6 million of SBA 7(a) loans funded in 2021.
• Newtek Business Lending ("NBL"), forecasts closing approximately $150 million SBA 504 loans for the full year 2022, which would represent a 66.5% increase over $90.1 million of SBA 504 closings in 2021.
  

Mr. Sloane continued, “We are exceptionally pleased with our quarterly and first half of 2022 performance, in particular given the market headwinds that publicly traded companies are facing, which are out of anyone's control. Our weighted average net gain-on-sale price for the second quarter 2022, which reflects lagging prime rate increases and other capital market pressures, decreased by 2.5% over the first quarter of 2022, however our core business operations were able to make up for the decline by NSBF funding 330 SBA 7(a) loan units in the second quarter 2022, compared to 130 SBA 7(a) loan units in the same period last year. Over our 24-year operating history, we believe that Newtek has demonstrated its ability to push itself through high-rate, low-rate, good credit and poor credit environments, and we believe that it has been able to outperform market participants and competitors. Being able to meet and exceed the midpoint of our ANII targets, even with a 2.5% reduction in weighted average net gain-on-sale pricing for the quarter, is evidence of such resilience. Moreover, we are pleased to report that our borrowers are currently above a 98% currency ratio in our accrual loan portfolio as of June 30, 2022, and remain confident in the manner in which we manage our relationships with our borrowers and work with them to offer the best business and finance solutions available in the market. In addition, I want to commend Newtek’s senior management team and all staff for being able to deliver these strong results while simultaneously positioning the Company for what we believe will be a transition into owning a federally chartered bank, NBNYC (subject to regulatory approvals and closing conditions), which we contracted to purchase slightly over one year ago, and converting Newtek into a bank holding company. We recently received what we believe is an overwhelming shareholder response at our special meeting of shareholders where 89% of Newtek’s shareholders voting at the meeting gave Newtek’s board of directors authorization to discontinue Newtek’s election as a BDC. I have a tremendous appreciation for all of the work our staff has done during the ongoing regulatory application process and to prepare for the closing of the NBNYC acquisition, while simultaneously working tirelessly to deliver above-average results to shareholders during one of the most challenging market environments we have experienced in the last decade. We continue to believe that the required regulatory approvals will be forthcoming within the third quarter of 2022.”

Mr. Sloane further commented, “In a separate press release, issued today, we forecasted our total dividends for the second half of 2022 in a range of $1.00 per share to $1.50 per share, which are expected to be paid by December 31, 2022, and out of taxable income as they always have been paid, subject to Board approval.   Newtek has paid a total of $1.40 per share in dividends year to date through June 30, 2022, and we are currently forecasting a full year 2022 dividend of between $2.40 per share and $2.90 per share. We also provided the markets with an illustration of certain financial targets for Newtek for 2023 as a bank holding company, including from an earnings projection and capital-level basis, if we were to receive regulatory approvals and close the acquisition. This illustration can be found on our corporate website at www.newtekone.com in the ‘Investor Relations’ section under ‘Events and Presentations’ and is titled ‘July 2022 Illustration of the NBNYC Acquisition and Conversion of Newtek Business Services Corp. to a Bank Holding Company’. We would like to note that management is even more confident in its decision to acquire a bank and convert to a bank holding company given the change in climate for interest rates, commercial finance, quality spreads, and the hopeful and anticipated targets for capitalization and earnings.”

Mr. Sloane concluded, “Through this new pending structure, in addition to lowering our cost of capital and supporting our overall growth, we believe our ability to deliver superior products as a bank holding company and bank, and satisfy our client’s needs, will be materially enhanced, helping us improve the business prospects of independent business owners through our technology-enabled bank in a significant way. We believe the process of acquiring NBNYC has illuminated how advanced our two-decade-long history of establishing people, processes, and technology is, and may allow us to unlock shareholder value by potentially creating joint ventures with, and licensing our technology to, other market participants and distributing our technology to other financial institutions, including but not limited to community banks, regional banks and credit unions, which we believe could place us in an position to monetize our technological assets and processes. During our earnings conference call we will discuss the NewtekOne Dashboard^TM, which we will be positioning as “The Newtek Advantage^TM”, which we believe will allow us to offer our future banking clientele the relationships, analytics, software, and transactional capability that other banks simply do not offer. We will discuss this and our financial and operating results on our earnings conference call tomorrow morning at 8:30 am ET, along with what we believe are a plethora of opportunities ahead for our organization.”

¹Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures - Newtek Business Services Corp. and Subsidiaries

In evaluating its business, Newtek considers and uses ANII as a measure of its operating performance. ANII includes short-term capital gains from the sale of the guaranteed portions of SBA 7(a) loans and conventional loans, and beginning in 2016, capital gain distributions from controlled portfolio companies, which are reoccurring events. The Company defines ANII as net investment income (loss) plus net realized gains recognized from the sale of guaranteed portions of SBA 7(a) loan investments, less realized losses on non-affiliate investments, plus the net realized gains on controlled investments, plus or minus the change in fair value of contingent consideration liabilities, plus loss on extinguishment of debt, plus or minus an adjustment for gains or losses on derivative transactions.

We do not designate derivatives as hedges to qualify for hedge accounting and therefore any net payments under, or fluctuations in the fair value of, our derivatives are recognized currently in our GAAP income statement. However, fluctuations in the fair value of the related assets are not included in our income statement. We consider the gain or loss on our hedging positions related to assets that we still own as of the reporting date to be “open hedging positions.” While recognized for GAAP purposes, we exclude the results on the hedges from ANII until the related asset is sold and/or the hedge position is “closed,” whereupon they would then be included in ANII in that period. These are reflected as “adjustment for realized gain/(loss) on derivatives” for purposes of computing ANII for the period. Management believes that excluding these specifically identified gains and losses associated with the open hedging positions adjusts for timing differences between when we recognize changes in the fair values of our assets and changes in the fair value of the derivatives used to hedge such assets.

The term ANII is not defined under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or U.S. GAAP, and is not a measure of operating income, operating performance or liquidity presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. ANII has limitations as an analytical tool and, when assessing the Company’s operating performance, investors should not consider ANII in isolation, or as a substitute for net investment income, or other consolidated income statement data prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Among other things, ANII does not reflect the Company’s actual cash expenditures. Other companies may calculate similar measures differently than Newtek, limiting their usefulness as comparative tools. The Company compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its GAAP results supplemented by ANII. Reconciliation tables showing the adjustments made to net investment income to determine NII are attached to this press release.

² Note Regarding Dividend Payments
Amount and timing of dividends, if any, remain subject to the discretion of the Company's Board of Directors. The Company's Board of Directors expects that it will maintain its status as a BDC and regulated investment company ("RIC") in the near term, and therefore expects to maintain a dividend policy with the objective of making quarterly distributions in an amount that approximates 90 - 100% of the Company's annual taxable income. The determination of the tax attributes of the Company's distributions is made annually as of the end of the Company's fiscal year based upon its taxable income for the full year and distributions paid for the full year.

Newtek Business Services Corp., Your Business Solutions Company^®, is an internally managed BDC, which along with its controlled portfolio companies, provides a wide range of business and financial solutions under the Newtek^® brand to the small- and medium-sized business (“SMB”) market. Since 1999, Newtek has provided state-of-the-art, cost-efficient products and services and efficient business strategies to SMB relationships across all 50 states to help them grow their sales, control their expenses and reduce their risk.
