NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Signature Bank (Nasdaq: SBNY), a New York-based full-service commercial bank, today announced results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2016. Net income for the 2016 third quarter was $76.1 million, or $1.41 diluted earnings per share, versus $96.2 million, or $1.88 diluted earnings per share, for the 2015 third quarter. The decrease in net income for the 2016 third quarter, versus the comparable quarter last year, is primarily due to an increase in the provision for loan losses of $69.1 million. $61.7 million of the increase in provision for loan losses was due to the Chicago taxi medallion portfolio.
Net interest income for the 2016 third quarter reached $290.5 million, up $40.5 million, or 16.2 percent, when compared with the 2015 third quarter. This increase is primarily due to growth in average interest-earning assets. Total assets reached $37.79 billion at September 30, 2016, an increase of $5.87 billion, or 18.4 percent, from $31.92 billion at September 30, 2015. Average assets for the 2016 third quarter reached $37.30 billion, an increase of $6.10 billion, or 19.6 percent, compared with the 2015 third quarter.
Deposits for the 2016 third quarter rose $1.82 billion, or 6.1 percent, to $31.40 billion at September 30, 2016. When compared with deposits at September 30, 2015, overall deposit growth for the last twelve months was 18.0 percent, or $4.78 billion. Average deposits for the 2016 third quarter reached $30.52 billion, an increase of $1.44 billion, or 4.9 percent.
“This quarter, Signature Bank effectively put the Chicago taxi medallion portfolio issues behind us, while growing deposits in excess of $1.8 billion. As we grow, we continue to expand our geographic outreach for securing deposits on a national basis across a number of industries. Our capabilities, service and trusted reputation for safety have always enabled the Bank to compete with major financial institutions throughout the New York metropolitan area. Now, these attributes afford us the opportunity to garner deposits in other regions of the country as well,” stated Joseph J. DePaolo, President and Chief Executive Officer.
“The client service differentiators Signature Bank brings do not go unnoticed. This quarter, the Bank was ranked Best Business Bank by New York Law Journal readers. Since the New York Law Journal, a leading trade publication for the legal market in New York, introduced its reader survey seven years ago, the Bank has continually secured the top spot or ranked within the top three positions in each category in which it was named. Law firms are a meaningful constituent within our client base, and this ranking is a testament to the fact that the Bank truly stands out amongst professional services organizations. Additionally, Weiss Ratings, a national independent provider of financial strength ratings for the bank and insurance industries, recently ranked Signature Bank amongst the top five highest-rated, largest banks in the U.S., depicting yet another example of our commitment to depositor-first, sleep-at-night, safety,” DePaolo explained.
Scott A. Shay, Chairman of the Board, commented: “At Signature Bank, we recognize that our core asset is trust. Our clients trust us to do two things: first, to keep their money safe; and secondly, to ensure all of their banking activities are conducted within their best interests. We value the great confidence our clients place in us, and we are dedicated to ensuring we deliver on that conviction with every client transaction. We also believe we have to keep our balance sheet pristine to maintain that trust and our actions this quarter demonstrate that commitment.
“And, then there is trust amongst our colleagues to serve our clients with integrity in both good and bad economic times. Our relationship-based approach has been the foundation of our business model since our inception. As we have demonstrated since our founding, we prosper as our clients prosper. We will continue to execute on our client-centric philosophy.”
Capital
The Bank’s Tier 1 leverage, common equity Tier 1 risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and total risk-based capital ratios were approximately 9.51 percent, 12.00 percent, 12.00 percent, and 13.56 percent, respectively, as of September 30, 2016. Each of these ratios is well in excess of regulatory requirements. The Bank’s strong risk-based capital ratios reflect the relatively low risk profile of the Bank’s balance sheet. The Bank’s tangible common equity ratio remains strong at 9.41 percent. The Bank defines tangible common equity ratio as the ratio of total tangible common shareholders’ equity to total tangible assets.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the 2016 third quarter was $290.5 million, an increase of $40.5 million, or 16.2 percent, versus the same period last year, primarily due to growth in average interest-earning assets. Average interest-earning assets of $36.89 billion for the 2016 third quarter represent an increase of $6.08 billion, or 19.7 percent, from the 2015 third quarter. Yield on interest-earning assets for the 2016 third quarter decreased two basis points, to 3.62 percent, compared with the 2015 third quarter. This decrease was primarily attributable to prolonged low interest rates and lower prepayment penalty income.
Average cost of deposits and average cost of funds for the third quarter of 2016 increased by two and seven basis points, respectively, versus the 2015 third quarter to 0.42 percent and 0.53 percent.
Net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis for the 2016 third quarter was 3.14 percent versus 3.22 percent reported in the same period a year ago. On a linked quarter basis, net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis decreased five basis points. Excluding loan prepayment penalties in both quarters, linked quarter core margin decreased five basis points to 3.07 percent.
Provision for Loan Losses
The Bank’s provision for loan losses for the third quarter of 2016 was $80.5 million, compared with $33.3 million for the 2016 second quarter and $11.4 million for the 2015 third quarter. The elevated provision in the 2016 third quarter was predominantly due to the Chicago taxi medallion portfolio.
Net charge-offs for the 2016 third quarter were $100.5 million, or 1.46 percent of average loans on an annualized basis, versus $15.4 million, or 0.24 percent, for the 2016 second quarter and $5.5 million, or 0.10 percent, for the 2015 third quarter. $95.1 million of the charge-offs in the 2016 third quarter were for the Chicago taxi medallion portfolio. The remaining Chicago taxi medallion portfolio balance is $58.4 million with an associated allowance for loan losses of $12.6 million for a net exposure of $45.8 million.
Non-Interest Income and Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest income for the 2016 third quarter was $11.1 million, up $3.2 million when compared with $7.9 million reported in the 2015 third quarter. The increase in non-interest income was driven by increases in net gains on sales of securities and loans.
Non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2016 was $96.2 million, an increase of $10.0 million, or 11.7 percent, versus $86.2 million reported in the 2015 third quarter. The increase was primarily a result of the addition of new private client banking teams, as well as an increase in costs in our risk management and compliance related activities. The Bank also incurred additional FDIC assessment fees.
The Bank’s efficiency ratio improved to 31.9 percent for the 2016 third quarter versus 33.4 percent for the comparable period last year. The improvement was primarily due to growth in net interest income.
Loans
Loans, excluding loans held for sale, grew $1.06 billion, or 4.0 percent, during the third quarter of 2016 to $27.77 billion, compared with $26.71 billion at June 30, 2016. At September 30, 2016, loans accounted for 73.5 percent of total assets, versus 73.1 percent at the end of the 2016 second quarter and 69.6 percent at the end of 2015 third quarter. Average loans, excluding loans held for sale, reached $27.33 billion in the 2016 third quarter, growing $1.27 billion, or 4.9 percent, from the 2016 second quarter and $5.94 billion, or 27.8 percent, from the 2015 third quarter. The increase in loans for the quarter was primarily driven by growth in commercial real estate and multi-family loans.
At September 30, 2016, non-accrual loans were $162.8 million, representing 0.59 percent of total loans and 0.43 percent of total assets, compared with non-accrual loans of $129.5 million, or 0.48 percent of total loans, at June 30, 2016 and $59.6 million, or 0.27 percent of total loans, at September 30, 2015. At the end of the 2016 third quarter, $140.1 million of non-accrual loans were taxi medallions. At September 30, 2016, the ratio of allowance for loan and lease losses to total loans was 0.74 percent, versus 0.84 percent at June 30, 2016 and 0.82 percent at September 30, 2015. Additionally, the ratio of allowance for loan and lease losses to non-accrual loans, or the coverage ratio, was 126 percent for the 2016 third quarter versus 174 percent for the second quarter of 2016 and 307 percent for the 2015 third quarter.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES |
(unaudited) |
Management believes that the presentation of certain non-GAAP financial measures assists investors when comparing results period-to-period in a more consistent manner and provides a better measure of Signature Bank's results. These non-GAAP measures include the Bank's (i) net income and diluted earnings per share excluding the after tax effect of net gains on sales of securities and net impairment losses on securities recognized in earnings, (ii) net income and diluted earnings per share excluding the after tax effect of the Chicago taxi medallion portfolio provision for loan and lease losses, (iii) pre-tax, pre-provision income, (iv) tangible common equity ratio, (v) efficiency ratio excluding net gains on sales of securities and net impairment losses on securities recognized in earnings, (vi) yield on interest-earning assets, tax-equivalent basis, (vii) net interest margin, tax-equivalent basis, and (viii) core net interest margin excluding loan prepayment penalty income. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP-basis measures and results. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. For a description of the tangible common equity ratio, efficiency ratio, tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets, and tax equivalent net interest margin see "Financial Summary, Capital Ratios, Asset Quality." |
The following table presents a reconciliation of net income and diluted earnings per share (as reported) to net income and diluted earnings per share excluding the after tax effect of gains from the sales of securities and net impairment losses on securities recognized in earnings: |
