Santander Consumer USA Holdings Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2020 Results

Rhea-AI Summary

Santander Consumer USA Holdings (NYSE: SC) reported a strong Q3 2020 with a net income of $490 million, or $1.58 per diluted share, despite facing challenges from the pandemic. The company originated over $8 billion in loans and leases, benefiting from high used vehicle prices and low delinquency rates. However, due to the Federal Reserve's restrictions, SC does not expect to declare dividends for Q4 2020. The firm's CET1 ratio stands at 13.7%, supporting its resilience in uncertain conditions.

Positive

• Net income of $490 million for Q3 2020, up from prior year.
• Originated over $8 billion in loans and leases.
• Historic low delinquency rates, with a 30-59 delinquency ratio of 5.0%.
• Improved recovery rate at 91.4%, up from 55.9%.
• Maintained strong financial position with a CET1 ratio of 13.7%.

Negative

• No expected dividend declaration for Q4 2020 due to Federal Reserve restrictions.
• CET1 ratio decreased from 15.4% to 13.7%.

DALLAS, Oct. 28, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Santander Consumer USA Holdings Inc. (NYSE: SC) ("SC" or the "Company") today announced net income for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020 ("Q3 2020") of $490 million, or $1.58 per diluted common share. The quarter included $46 million of net charge-offs and $293 million of incremental allowance for credit loss primarily driven by balance growth.

On September 30, 2020, the Federal Reserve Board ("FRB") extended to the fourth quarter its interim policy applicable to all CCAR banks prohibiting share repurchases and limiting dividends to average trailing net income. Although SC's standalone income is sufficient to support a dividend, it is consolidated into Santander Holdings USA, Inc.'s ("SHUSA") capital plan and therefore is subject to the FRB's interim policy that utilizes SHUSA's average trailing income to determine the cap on common stock dividends. SC does not currently expect to declare or pay a dividend in the fourth quarter of 2020.

Management Quotes

"As the pandemic continues to affect our country and our industry, our top priority remains serving our dealers, customers and employees. During the quarter we originated more than $8 billion in loans and leases, continued to grow balances and remained disciplined in our underwriting. Our portfolio continues to be resilient as demand for customer deferrals declined significantly and delinquency is at a historic low. These factors, in addition to robust used vehicle prices, led to a solid quarter across the board and positions us to finish the year strong," said Mahesh Aditya, SC President and CEO.

Fahmi Karam, SC Chief Financial Officer, added, "This quarter's results highlight the unique environment we are currently operating in with low losses driven by relief programs and historically high used car prices driving strong net income. We grew reserves in the quarter to over $6 billion, or an 18.4% allowance ratio, driven by increased balances and continued uncertainty in the macro outlook. We are well capitalized with a 13.7% CET1 ratio, and combined with our reserve, we have an industry leading loss absorbing capacity to manage through the pandemic and position us for long-term success."

The Company's allowance for credit losses increased $0.3 billion and $3.1 billion for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. For the three months ended September 30, 2020, the increase was primarily due to a portfolio growth. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the primary drivers were $2.1 billion increase at CECL adoption on January 1, 2020, driven mainly by the addition of lifetime expected credit losses for non-TDR loans, and additional reserves specific to COVID-19 risk.

	(Unaudited, Dollar amounts in thousands)
Total equity	$	5,094,812			$	7,345,202
Add: Adjustment due to CECL capital relief (c)	1,842,536				—
Deduct: Goodwill, intangibles, and other assets, net of deferred tax liabilities	159,907				150,644

(a)	Under the banking agencies' risk-based capital guidelines, assets and credit equivalent amounts of derivatives and off-balance sheet exposures are assigned to broad risk categories. The aggregate dollar amount in each risk category is multiplied by the associated risk weight of the category. The resulting weighted values are added together with the measure for market risk, resulting in the Company's total Risk weighted assets.
(b)	CET1 is calculated under Basel III regulations required as of January 1, 2015. The fully phased-in capital ratios are non-GAAP financial measures.
(c)	As described in our 2019 annual report on Form 10-K, on January 1, 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments -Credit Losses ("CECL"), which upon adoption resulted in a reduction to our opening retained earnings balance, net of income tax, and increase to the allowance for credit losses of approximately $2 billion. As also described in our 2019 10-K, the U.S. banking agencies in December 2018 had approved a final rule to address the impact of CECL on regulatory capital by allowing banking organizations, including the Company, the option to phase in the day-one impact of CECL until the first quarter of 2023. In March 2020, the U.S. banking agencies issued an interim final rule that provides banking organizations with an alternative option to delay for two years an estimate of CECL's effect on regulatory capital, relative to the incurred loss methodology's effect on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year transition period. The Company is electing this alternative option instead of the one described in the December 2018 rule.
