CHARLESTON, W.Va., April 17 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- City Holding Company, "the Company" , a $2.5 billion bank holding company headquartered in Charleston, today announced net income for the first quarter of $12.9 million, or diluted earnings per share of $0.71 compared to $11.7 million, or $0.69 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2005, a 2.9% increase. For the first quarter of 2006, the Company achieved a return on assets of 2.06%, a return on equity of 17.4%, a net interest margin of 4.71%, and an efficiency ratio of 45.3%.
Key components of the increase in net income were increases in net interest income of $3.6 million and non-interest income (principally service charge revenue) of $1.0 million. These increases were partially offset by provision for loan losses of $1.0 million in the first quarter of 2006, as compared to no provision for loan losses in the first quarter of 2005 and non- interest expense of $1.5 million (principally salaries and benefits). Additionally, the Company incurred an expense of $0.3 million in the first quarter of 2006 associated with redemption of some of its outstanding trust preferred securities. Also, during the first quarter of 2005, the Company reported income on bank owned life insurance $0.5 million higher associated with the settlement of an insured claim.
Charles Hageboeck, Chief Executive Officer and President, stated, "I am very pleased with City's continuing success during the first quarter of 2006. The Company's diluted earnings per share increased from $0.69 to $0.71 despite the impact of the provision, lower interest income associated with previously securitized loans, and lower revenues associated with bank owned life insurance. Our net interest income rose by 5.0% exclusive of the loss in net interest income associated with lower previously securitized loan balances and the positive impact from the acquisition of Classic Bancshares, Inc. (Classic), parent company of Classic Bank in Ashland, Kentucky, during the second quarter of 2005. Our net interest margin increased 25 basis points as compared to the first quarter of 2005. Loans and deposits both grew meaningfully in an economic environment that has been somewhat challenging for banks. Branch service charges (excluding the impact of the Classic acquisition) increased approximately 8% as compared to the first quarter of 2005. Non-interest expenses remained flat after considering the impact of the Classic acquisition and the costs associated with early redemption of some of our outstanding trust preferred securities. Asset quality, as measured by non-performing assets remained stable and at very desirable levels as compared to many of our peers. The bank is extremely well capitalized and highly liquid.
"In summary, the Company is performing well against all measures. As a result, our Board of Directors recently approved an increase of 12% in our quarterly dividend to 28 cents per share. This follows an increase in the dividend rate of nearly 14% in 2005 and 10% in 2004. Additionally, the Company used some of its profits to repurchase 300,000 shares of common stock during the first quarter, which will have a positive impact on the earnings of all remaining shareholders. Based on our continued success in the first quarter of 2006, we believe that the Company remains well positioned to maintain our solid performance on behalf of our shareholders throughout the remainder of the year."
Net Interest Income
The Company's tax equivalent net interest income increased $3.6 million, or 16.0%, from $22.5 million during the first quarter of 2005 to $26.1 million during the first quarter of 2005. The increase was attributable to the acquisition of Classic ($2.5 million) as well as a widening of the net interest margin and growth in the Company's traditional loan portfolio. Exclusive of the Classic acquisition, net interest income increased $1.1 million, or 5.0%, from the first quarter of 2005 to the first quarter of 2006. This increase was due primarily to an increase of $112 million, or 8.7%, in the average balances of traditional loans outstanding (residential real estate, home equity, commercial and installment loans) and a 67 basis points increase in the yield on such loans. These increases were partially offset by increased interest expense and a decline in interest income attributable to previously securitized loans. Interest expense increased $1.8 million due to a 51 basis point increase in the rate paid on interest bearing liabilities from the first quarter of 2005. Interest income from previously securitized loans decreased $0.4 million from the first quarter of 2005. This decrease was related to a decrease in the average balance of previously securitized loans from $54.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2005, to $28.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2006. However, this reduction was partially mitigated as the yield on these loans rose from 22.8% from the first quarter of 2005 to 39.1% for the first quarter of 2006 (see Previously Securitized Loans section for further discussion).
Credit Quality
At March 31, 2006, the Allowance for Loan Losses ("ALLL") was $16.8 million or 1.04% of total loans outstanding and 504% of non-performing loans compared to $16.3 million or 1.22% of loans outstanding and 490% of non- performing loans at March 31, 2005, and $16.8 million or 1.04% of loans outstanding and 402% of non-performing loans at December 31, 2005. As a result of the Company's quarterly analysis of the adequacy of the ALLL, the Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $1.0 million in the first quarter of 2006. The increase in the provision for loan losses from $0.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2005 was due to recent loss trends in the consumer and home equity portfolios within City and national trends. While the Company increased its provision from the fourth quarter of 2005 to the first quarter of 2006, the amount of provision recorded was favorably impacted by continued improvement in the quality of the loan portfolio. Specifically, two problem credits were repaid/reduced during the first quarter. As a result, the amounts applicable to these credits were no longer required, favorably impacting the provision required by $340,000 for the first quarter.
The Company had net charge-offs of $1.0 million for the first quarter of 2006, with depository accounts representing $0.5 million of this total. While charge-offs on depository accounts are appropriately taken against the ALLL, the revenue associated with depository accounts is reflected in service charges and has been steadily growing as the core base of checking accounts has grown. Net charge-offs on installment loans, commercial loans, and real estate loans were $0.2 million, $0.1 million, and $0.2 million, respectively, for the quarter ended March 31, 2006.
Due to a number of strategic initiatives to strengthen the loan portfolio implemented by management in recent years, including tightening credit standards, changing the overall mix of the portfolio to include a higher proportion of real estate secured loans, and identifying and charging off or resolving problem loans, the quality of the Company's loan portfolio remains solid. At March 31, 2006, non-performing assets as a percentage of loans and other real estate owned were 0.24%. Average non-performing assets as a percentage of loans and other real estate owned for the Company's peer group for the most recently reported quarter ended December 31, 2005, was 0.68%. Another contributing factor that has enabled the Company to maintain its allowance at lower levels than peers is the composition of the Company's loan portfolio, which is weighted more toward residential mortgage loans and less toward non-real estate secured commercial loans than its peers. As a result, the Company's ALLL as a percentage of loans outstanding is 1.04% at March 31, 2006, compared to the average of the Company's peer group of 1.21% for the most recently reported quarter. The Company believes its methodology for determining the adequacy of its ALLL adequately provides for probable losses inherent in the loan portfolio and produces a provision for loan losses that is directionally consistent with changes in asset quality and loss experience.
Non-interest Income
Net of investment securities gains, non-interest income increased $1.0 million, or 8.3%, to $12.4 million in the first quarter of 2006 as compared to $11.4 million in the first quarter of 2005. The largest source of non- interest income is service charges from depository accounts, which increased $1.5 million, or 16.8%, from $8.4 million during the first quarter of 2005 to $9.9 million during the first quarter of 2006. This increase was partially due to the Classic acquisition, which accounted for $0.8 million, as well as an increase in the utilization of services by the Company's expanding customer base. Excluding of the impact of Classic, service charge income increased 7.9% from the first quarter of 2005. The Company also experienced a $0.5 million decrease in bank-owned life insurance as the result of a settlement of an insured claim during the first quarter of 2005.
Non-interest Expenses
Non-interest expenses increased $1.5 million from $16.0 million in the first quarter of 2005 to $17.5 million in the first quarter of 2006. The Classic acquisition accounted for $1.3 million of the increased expenses during the first quarter of 2006. Excluding the impact of the Classic acquisition, non-interest expenses increased by $0.2 million in the first quarter of 2006 as compared to the first quarter of 2005 primarily as a result of a $0.3 million charge related to the redemption of some of its trust preferred securities during the period.
The Company's efficiency ratio improved from 47.4% for the quarter ended March 31, 2005 to 45.3% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, reflecting ongoing strength in managing expenses while increasing revenues. The average efficiency ratio for the Company's peer group for the most recently reported quarter ended December 31, 2005, was 60.1%.
Balance Sheet Trends
As compared to December 31, 2005, loans have increased $10.3 million at March 31, 2006. The primary reasons for this growth were increases in targeted areas of commercial loans of $13.6 million, home equity loans of $2.8 million and residential real estate loans of $2.6 million. These increases were partially offset by decreases in installment loans of $4.4 million and previously securitized loans of $4.3 million (see discussion below). The Company was successful in increasing residential real estate loans and home equity loans despite the difficulties imposed by the flat yield curve that has resulted in borrowers refinancing into fixed rate mortgages. Total average depository balances increased $21.5 million, or 4.6% on an annualized basis, from the quarter ended December 31, 2005 to the quarter ended March 31, 2006. This growth was primarily in time deposits, which increased $21.4 million from the quarter ended December 31, 2005.
Previously Securitized Loans
Between 1997 and 1999, the Company originated and securitized $760 million in 125% loan to value junior-lien underlying mortgages in six separate pools. The Company had a retained interest in the residual cash flows associated with these underlying mortgages after satisfying priority claims. Principal amounts owed to investors in the securitizations were evidenced by notes that were subject to redemption under certain circumstances. When the notes were redeemed during 2003 and 2004, the Company became the beneficial owner of the mortgage loans and recorded the loans as "Previously Securitized Loans" within the loan portfolio. At March 31, 2006, the Company reported "Previously Securitized Loans" of $25.9 million compared to $50.6 million and $30.3 million at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2005, respectively, representing a decrease of 48.8% and 14.3%, respectively.
Because the carrying value of the previously securitized loans incorporates discounts for expected prepayment and default rates, the carrying value of the loans is generally less than the contractual outstanding balance of the loans. As of March 31, 2006, the contractual outstanding balances of the mortgages securitized were $43.5 million while the carrying value of these assets was $25.9 million. The difference between the carrying value and the contractual outstanding balance of previously securitized loans is accreted into interest income over the life of the loans. An impairment charge on previously securitized loans would be provided through the Company's provision and allowance for loan losses if the discounted present value of estimated future cash flows declines below the recorded value of previously securitized loans.
The Company estimates the net carrying value of previously securitized loan balances and related interest income to decrease as shown below:
12/31 Balance Annualized Interest Effective
(in millions)* Income (in millions)* Annualized
Yield*
2005 $30.3 $11.4 27 %
2006 19.1 9.6 40 %
2007 13.9 6.7 40 %
2008 10.3 4.9 40 %
2009 7.6 3.6 40 %
* - 2005 amounts are based on actual results. 2006 amounts are based on
actual results through 3/31/06 and estimated amounts for the remainder of
the year. 2007, 2008 and 2009 amounts are based on estimated amounts.
Note: The amounts reflected in the table above require management to make
significant assumptions based on estimated future default, prepayment, and
discount rates. Actual performance could be different from that assumed,
which could result in the actual results being materially different from
the amounts estimated above.
The yield on the previously securitized loans was 39.1% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006, compared to 31.0% for the quarter ended December 31, 2005, and 22.8% for the quarter ended March 31, 2005. The yield on the previously securitized loans has increased due to improved cash flows from default rates being less than previously estimated. The lower default rates resulted from the Company's assumption of the servicing of all of the pool balances during the second quarter of 2005. This favorably impacted the yield realized on the previously securitized loans by eliminating the servicing fees previously being paid to the external servicing agent and increased internal collection efforts that have resulted in enhanced levels of recoveries on previously charged-off loans. Subsequent to our assumption of the servicing of these loans, the Company has averaged net increased cash flows of $465,000 per month. These factors have increased the projected cash flows from the previously securitized loans and the Company now estimates that the yield on these loans will be in the range of 39% to 41% in the future.
Capitalization and Liquidity
One of the Company's strengths is that it is highly profitable while maintaining strong liquidity and capital. With respect to liquidity, the Company's loan to deposit ratio was 82.7% and the loan to asset ratio was 64.0% at March 31, 2006. The Company maintained investment securities totaling 25.1% of assets as of this date. Further, the Company's deposit mix is weighted heavily toward checking and saving accounts that fund 44.0% of assets at March 31, 2006. Time deposits fund 33.4% of assets at March 31, 2006, but very few of these deposits are in accounts that have balances of more than $150,000, reflecting the core retail orientation of the Company.
The Company is also strongly capitalized. Capitalization (as measured by average equity to average assets) was 11.9% for the quarter ended March 31, 2006 as a result of the Company's strong earnings. The Company's tangible equity ratio was 9.2% at March 31, 2006 compared with a tangible equity ratio of 9.5% at March 31, 2005. With respect to regulatory capital, at March 31, 2006, the Company's Leverage Ratio is 10.76%, the Tier I Capital ratio is 15.02%, and the Total Risk-Based Capital ratio is 15.98%. These regulatory capital ratios are significantly above levels required to be considered "well capitalized," which is the highest possible regulatory designation.
Other Events of Interest
On March 29, 2006, the Board approved a 12% increase in the quarterly cash dividend to 28 cents per share payable April 30, 2006 to shareholders of record as of April 15, 2006. During the first quarter of 2006, the Company repurchased 300,572 common shares at a weighted average price of $36.26 as part of a 1 million share repurchase plan authorized by the Board of Directors in June 2005. As a result of these repurchases, the Company's average outstanding shares decreased 110,000 shares during the quarter, providing the Company's shareholders increased earnings capacity as shares repurchased improve earnings per share on the remaining shares outstanding.
On March 27, 2006, the Company opened its new downtown Charleston, West Virginia, banking facility at 10 Hale Street. The new 5,200 square foot facility provides a base for commercial lending, trust and investment management, and executive banking, as well as being a full-service retail banking center.
