Timberland Bancorp, Inc.: Timberland Bancorp's Second Fiscal Quarter Net Income Increases 25% Year-Over-Year

  • Quarterly EPS Increased 27% to $0.80 from $0.63 One Year Ago
  • Quarterly Return on Average Assets of 1.48%
  • Quarterly Return on Average Equity of 11.86%
  • Quarterly Net Interest Margin of 3.99%
  • Loan Portfolio Increased 17% Year-Over-Year

HOQUIAM, Wash., April 25, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Timberland Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: TSBK) ("Timberland" or "the Company"), the holding company for Timberland Bank (the "Bank"), today reported net income of $6.66 million, or $0.80 per diluted common share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. This compares to net income of $5.33 million, or $0.63 per diluted common share for the comparable quarter one year ago and $7.51 million, or $0.90 per diluted common share, for the preceding quarter.

For the first six months of fiscal 2023, Timberland's net income increased 31% to $14.17 million, or $1.70 per diluted common share, compared to $10.81 million, or $1.28 per diluted common share for the first six months of fiscal 2022.

"We are pleased to report strong financial results for our second fiscal quarter, with net income and EPS increasing 25% and 27%, respectively, compared to the year ago quarter," stated Dean Brydon, Chief Executive Officer. "Our results benefited from continued strong loan portfolio growth in conjunction with a higher interest rate environment compared to a year ago. As a result of the Company's strong earnings and capital position, Timberland's Board of Directors announced a quarterly cash dividend of $0.23 per share, payable on May 26, 2023, to shareholders of record on May 12, 2023. This represents the 42nd consecutive quarter that Timberland will have paid a cash dividend."

"Asset quality remains strong with quarter end non-performing assets at 12 basis points of total assets," Brydon continued. "Although loan origination volumes have moderated, loan prepayments have declined considerably resulting in a $38 million increase in net loans receivable for the quarter. As a result of this loan growth, we recorded a provision for loan losses of $475,000 for the quarter. Additionally, liquidity, both on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet, remained strong with no borrowings at March 31, 2023 and secured borrowing line capacity of $647 million available through the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") and the Federal Reserve. While recent developments in the banking markets have been unsettling in the short term, we believe that with our strong capital position, excellent credit quality and ample sources of liquidity, we are well positioned to continue to deliver strong financial results."

"The current quarter's net interest margin remained strong at 3.99% and was 104 basis points higher compared to the year ago quarter. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to Federal Reserve rate increases and the continued deployment of overnight funds into higher yielding loans and investment securities," said Jonathan Fischer, President and Chief Operating Officer. "Deposit retention and acquisition remains competitive, and as a result we saw a 3% outflow of deposits during the quarter. As expected, funding costs increased during the quarter as we continue to increase short-term deposit rates to retain rate sensitive customer deposits. We have a strong and diversified deposit base of consumer and commercial customers and only 12% of our deposits were uninsured (or uncollateralized) at quarter end."

Earnings and Balance Sheet Highlights (at or for the periods ended March 31, 2023, compared to March 31, 2022, or December 31, 2022):

Earnings Highlights:

  • Earnings per diluted common share ("EPS") increased 27% to $0.80 for the current quarter from $0.63 for the comparable quarter one year ago and decreased 11% from $0.90 for the preceding quarter; EPS for the first six months of fiscal 2023 increased 33% to $1.70 from $1.28 for the first six months of fiscal 2022;
  • Net income increased 25% to $6.66 million for the current quarter from $5.33 million for the comparable quarter one year ago and decreased 11% from $7.51 million for the preceding quarter; Net income increased 31% to $14.17 million for the first six months of fiscal 2023 compared to $10.81 million for the first six months of fiscal 2022;
  • Return on average equity ("ROE") and return on average assets ("ROA") for the current quarter were 11.86% and 1.48%, respectively;
  • Net interest margin ("NIM") for the current quarter expanded to 3.99% from 2.95% for the comparable quarter one year ago and compressed slightly from 4.03% for the preceding quarter; and
  • The efficiency ratio for the current quarter was 55.31% compared to 58.42% for the comparable quarter one year ago and 51.52% for the preceding quarter.

Balance Sheet Highlights:

  • Total assets decreased 5% year-over-year and 3% from the prior quarter;
  • Net loans receivable (excluding SBA PPP loans) increased 18% year-over-year and 3% from the prior quarter;
  • Net loans receivable (including SBA PPP loans) increased 17% year-over-year and 3% from the prior quarter;

  • Liquidity (both on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet) remained strong with no borrowings at March 31, 2023 and secured borrowing line capacity of $647 million available through the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") and the Federal Reserve.

Operating Results

Operating revenue (net interest income before the provision for loan losses plus non-interest income) for the current quarter increased 24% to $19.79 million from $15.98 million for the comparable quarter one year ago and decreased 3% from $20.45 million for the preceding quarter. The decrease in operating revenue compared to the preceding quarter was primarily due to a decrease in net interest income as funding costs increased at a greater pace than interest income increased. Operating revenue increased by 25% to $40.24 million for the first six months of fiscal 2023 from $32.11 million for the first six months of fiscal 2022, primarily due to increased interest income from loans, overnight funds, and investment securities, which were partially offset by an increase in total interest expense. The increased interest income in these categories was primarily a result of increased short-term market interest rates and the continued deployment of liquidity into higher-yielding loans and investment securities.

Net interest income increased $4.26 million, or 33%, to $17.15 million for the current quarter from $12.89 million for the comparable quarter one year ago and decreased $592,000, or 3%, from $17.74 million for the preceding quarter. The decrease in net interest income compared to the preceding quarter was primarily due to increased funding costs and a decrease in average interest-earning assets. The weighted average cost of total interest-bearing liabilities increased to 0.84% for the current quarter from 0.50% for the preceding quarter as market interest rates increased. Partially offsetting the increase in interest expense was an increase in the weighted average yield on total interest-earning assets to 4.51% for the current quarter from 4.34% for the preceding quarter. Total average interest-earning assets decreased by $41.27 million, or 2%, to $1.72 billion for the current quarter from $1.76 billion for the preceding quarter. Timberland's NIM for the current quarter decreased to 3.99% from 4.03% for the preceding quarter and improved from 2.95% for the comparable quarter one year ago. The NIM for the current quarter was increased by approximately three basis points due to the accretion of $15,000 of the fair value discount on loans acquired in the South Sound Acquisition and the collection of $99,000 in pre-payment penalties, non-accrual interest, and late fees. The NIM for the preceding quarter was increased by approximately three basis points due to the accretion of $28,000 of the fair value discount on loans acquired in the South Sound Acquisition and the collection of $120,000 in pre-payment penalties, non-accrual interest and late fees. The NIM for the comparable quarter one year ago was increased by approximately six basis points due to the accretion of $34,000 of the fair value discount on loans acquired in the South Sound Acquisition and the collection of $246,000 in pre-payment penalties, non-accrual interest and late fees. Net interest income for the first six months of fiscal 2023 increased $9.31 million, or 36%, to $34.89 million from $25.29 million for the first six months of fiscal 2022. Timberland's net interest margin for the first six months of fiscal 2023 expanded to 4.02% from 2.93% for the first six months of fiscal 2022.

U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA") PPP loans contribute to interest income through the 1.00% interest rate earned on outstanding loan balances and also through the accretion of loan origination fees into interest income over the life of each PPP loan. At March 31, 2023, Timberland had SBA PPP deferred loan origination fees of $21,000 remaining to be accreted into interest income over the remaining life of the loans. The following table details the interest income recognized from SBA PPP loans:

Interest income$1 $ 2 $ 31
Loan origination fee accretion 4 17 708
Total SBA PPP loan income$ 5 $ 19 $ 739

A $475,000 provision for loan losses was recorded for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The provision was made primarily due to loan portfolio growth. A $525,000 provision for loans losses was recorded for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. No provision for loan losses was made during the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

Non-interest income decreased $69,000 or 3%, to $2.64 million for the current quarter from $2.71 million for the preceding quarter and decreased $447,000, or 14%, from $3.08 million for the comparable quarter one year ago. The decrease in non-interest income compared to the preceding quarter was primarily due to a $54,000 decrease in service charges on deposits and smaller decreases in several other categories. Fiscal year-to-date non-interest income decreased 18% to $5.34 million from $6.53 million for the first six months of fiscal 2022, primarily due to a $1.01 million decrease in gain on sales of loans as the dollar amount of fixed-rate one-to four-family loans originated and sold decreased as demand slowed and a larger portion of single family loan originations were retained in the portfolio rather than being sold.

Total operating (non-interest) expenses for the current quarter increased $409,000, or 4%, to $10.94 million from $10.54 million for the preceding quarter and increased $1.61 million, or 17%, from $9.33 million for the comparable quarter one year ago. The increase in operating expenses compared to the preceding quarter was primarily due to a $146,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits, a $91,000 increase in data processing and telecommunications expense and smaller increases in several other expense categories. These increases were partially offset by a $100,000 decrease in deposit operations expense and smaller decreases in several other expense categories. The increase in salaries and employee benefits was primarily due to hiring additional personnel (which included filling a number of positions which had been open in prior quarters). The increase in data processing and telecommunications expense was primarily due to expenses associated with several new technology products and initiatives. The efficiency ratio for the current quarter was 55.31% compared to 51.52% for the preceding quarter and 58.42% for the comparable quarter one year ago. Fiscal year-to-date operating expenses increased 15% to $21.48 million from $18.60 million for the first six months of fiscal 2022. The year-to-date increase in operating expenses was primarily due to a $1.58 million increase in salaries and employee benefits, a $386,000 increase in data processing and telecommunications expense, a $309,000 increase in professional fees expense and smaller increases in several other expense categories. The efficiency ratio for the first six months of fiscal 2023 was 53.58% compared to 57.91% for the first six months of fiscal 2022.

The provision for income taxes for the current quarter decreased $176,000, or 9%, to $1.71 million from $1.88 million for the preceding quarter, primarily due to lower taxable income. Timberland's effective income tax rate was 20.4% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 compared to 20.0% for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 and 19.8% for the quarter ended March 31, 2022. Timberland's effective income tax rate was 20.2% for the first six months of fiscal 2023 compared to 20.0% for the first six months of fiscal 2022.

Balance Sheet Management

Total assets decreased by $48.93 million, or 3%, during the quarter to $1.79 billion at March 31, 2023 from $1.84 billion at December 31, 2022 and decreased by $90.85 million, or 5%, from $1.88 billion one year ago. The quarter's decrease was primarily due to an $82.41 million decrease in total cash and cash equivalents, which was partially offset by a $37.63 million increase in net loans receivable.

Liquidity

Timberland has continued to maintain a strong liquidity position (both on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet) while deploying overnight funds into loans and investment securities during the past year. Liquidity, as measured by the sum of cash and cash equivalents, CDs held for investment, and available for sale investment securities, was 14.0% of total liabilities at March 31, 2023, compared to 18.9% at December 31, 2022, and 34.3% one year ago. Timberland had no borrowings at March 31, 2023 and had secured borrowing line capacity of $647 million available through the Federal Home Loan Bank and the Federal Reserve. With a strong and diversified deposit base, only 12% of Timberland's deposits were uninsured at March 31, 2023. (Note: The uninsured deposit calculation excludes public deposits that are fully collateralized.)

Loans

Net loans receivable increased $37.63 million, or 3%, during the quarter to $1.21 billion at March 31, 2023 from $1.17 billion at December 31, 2022. This increase was primarily due to a $16.35 million increase in one- to four-family loans, a $12.84 million decrease in the undisbursed portion of construction loans in process, a $7.04 million increase in multi-family loans, a $5.31 million increase in commercial real estate loans, and smaller increases in several other loan categories. These increases to net loans receivable were partially offset by a $4.75 million decrease in construction and land development loans, and smaller decreases in several other loan categories.

Timberland originated $77.15 million in loans during the quarter ended March 31, 2023, compared to $101.67 million for the preceding quarter and $130.41 million for the comparable quarter one year ago. Timberland continues to originate fixed-rate one- to four-family mortgage loans, a portion of which are sold into the secondary market for asset-liability management purposes and to generate non-interest income. During the past twelve months a larger percentage of single-family loan originations were retained in the portfolio rather than being sold due to the increased yield available on such loans. During the current quarter, fixed-rate one- to four-family mortgage loans totaling $2.39 million were sold compared to $1.16 million for the preceding quarter and $16.88 million for the comparable quarter one year ago.

Timberland's investment securities and CDs held for investment decreased $4.89 million, or 1%, to $353.77 million at March 31, 2023, from $358.66 million at December 31, 2022. The decrease was primarily due to maturities and scheduled amortization.

Deposits

Total deposits decreased $52.32 million, or 3%, during the quarter to $1.55 billion at March 31, 2023, from $1.60 billion at December 31, 2022. The quarter's decrease consisted of a $41.28 million decrease in NOW checking account balances, a $19.25 million decrease in money market account balances, a $15.09 million decrease in non-interest-bearing account balances, and a $9.99 million decrease in savings account balances. These decreases were partially offset by a $33.29 million increase in certificates of deposit account balances. The net decrease in deposits was primarily due to competitive pricing pressure and customers moving excess funds to alternative higher yielding investments as well as general declines in individual customer balances.

Shareholders' Equity and Capital Ratios

Total shareholders' equity increased $4.11 million, or 2%, to $227.66 million at March 31, 2023, from $223.55 million at December 31, 2022. The increase in shareholders' equity was primarily due to net income of $6.66 million for the quarter and $122,000 from the exercise of stock options, which was partially offset by the payment of $1.89 million in dividends to shareholders and the repurchase of 34,263 shares of common stock for $1.10 million (an average price of $32.04 per share). Timberland had 184,212 shares available to be repurchased in accordance with the terms of its existing stock repurchase plan at March 31, 2023.

Timberland remains well capitalized with a total risk-based capital ratio of 19.41%, a Tier 1 leverage capital ratio of 11.95%, a tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio (non-GAAP) of 11.96%, and a shareholders' equity to total assets ratio of 12.74% at March 31, 2023. Timberland's held to maturity investment securities were $277.91 million at March 31, 2023, with a net unrealized loss of $12.83 million (pre-tax). Although not permitted by U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, including these unrealized losses in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) ("AOCI") would result in a ratio of shareholders' equity to total assets of 12.18%, compared to 12.74%, as reported.

Asset Quality

Timberland's non-performing assets to total assets ratio was 0.12% at March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, an improvement from 0.16% at March 31, 2022. There were net charge-offs of $6,000 for the current quarter, compared to net recoveries of $1,000 for the preceding quarter and net charge-offs of $35,000 for the comparable quarter one year ago. Due primarily to loan portfolio growth, a $475,000 provision for loan losses was made for the quarter ended March 31, 2023 and a $525,000 provision for loan losses was made for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. No provision for loan losses was made during the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

The allowance for loan losses ("ALL") as a percentage of loans receivable was 1.20% at March 31, 2023, compared to 1.20% at December 31, 2022 and 1.28% one year ago.

The ALL as a percentage of loans receivable is also impacted by the loans acquired in the South Sound Acquisition. Included in the recorded value of loans acquired in acquisitions are net discounts which may reduce the need for an allowance for loan losses on such loans because they are carried at an amount below their outstanding principal balance. The initial recorded value of loans acquired in the South Sound Acquisition was $123.62 million and the related fair value discount was $2.08 million, or 1.68% of the loans acquired. The remaining fair value discount on loans acquired in the South Sound Acquisition was $225,000 at March 31, 2023. The allowance for loan losses to loans receivable (excluding SBA PPP loan balances and the remaining aggregate balance of the loans acquired in the South Sound Acquisition) was 1.21% (non-GAAP) at March 31, 2023.

The following table details the ALL as a percentage of loans receivable:

Total delinquent loans (past due 30 days or more) and non-accrual loans decreased $755,000 or 26%, to $2.19 million at March 31, 2023, from $2.95 million one year ago, and decreased $62,000, or 3%, from $2.25 million at December 31, 2022. Non-accrual loans decreased $682,000, or 26%, to $1.97 million at March 31, 2023, from $2.65 million one year ago, and decreased $66,000, or 3%, from $2.04 million at December 31, 2022.

Acquisition of South Sound Bank

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Timberland believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with information useful in understanding the Company's financial performance; however, readers of this report are urged to review these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with GAAP results as reported.

Financial measures that exclude intangible assets are non-GAAP measures. To provide investors with a broader understanding of capital adequacy, Timberland provides non-GAAP financial measures for tangible common equity, along with the GAAP measure. Tangible common equity is calculated as shareholders' equity less goodwill and CDI. In addition, tangible assets equal total assets less goodwill and CDI.

The following table provides a reconciliation of ending shareholders' equity (GAAP) to ending tangible shareholders' equity (non-GAAP) and ending total assets (GAAP) to ending tangible assets (non-GAAP).
