DEFIANCE, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)--First Defiance Financial Corp. (NASDAQ: FDEF) announced today that earnings for the first quarter of 2017 were $5.1 million, or $0.54 per diluted common share, which included the acquisition and operations of Commercial Bancshares, Inc. and its banking subsidiary, Commercial Savings Bank (collectively “CSB”), at February 24, 2017. These results included merger and conversion expenses related to the acquisition of $3.6 million, which had an after tax impact of $2.5 million, or $0.27 per diluted share.
In addition, first quarter 2017 results reflected the impact of the purchase of a bank owned life insurance policy including a tax-free value enhancement gain of $1.5 million and the surrender of a bank owned life insurance policy which added $1.7 million to income tax expense. Together, these transactions reduced net income approximately $0.2 million, or $0.02 per diluted share.
For the comparable period last year, net income was $7.2 million, or $0.79 per diluted share.
“We are very pleased with our strong operating performance for the first quarter and our successful completion of the merger and integration of CSB late in the quarter,” said Donald P. Hileman, President and Chief Executive Officer of First Defiance Financial Corp. “While the inclusion of CSB’s financials in the current quarter’s results impacts comparison of the quarter’s operating results, we were encouraged by our organic loan and deposit growth and the continued strength of our net interest margin. We look forward to building relationships in our new markets and realizing the benefits from merger in our future results.”
Net interest income up compared to first quarter 2016
Net interest income of $21.6 million in the first quarter of 2017 was up from $19.2 million in the first quarter of 2016. Net interest income grew $2.5 million over the prior year’s first quarter including approximately $945,000 from the acquisition of CSB completed during the first quarter 2017. Net interest margin was 3.81% for the first quarter of 2017, up from 3.76% in the fourth quarter of 2016, and up from 3.80% in the first quarter of 2016. Yield on interest earning assets were up slightly at 4.22% in the first quarter of 2017 compared to 4.18% in the first quarter of 2016. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased by 5 basis points in the first quarter of 2017 to 0.54% from 0.49% in the first quarter of 2016.
“The acquisition of CSB, particularly with its profitable earning asset mix and low cost deposit funding, supplemented our balance sheet very nicely as net interest income rose 12.8% over the first quarter last year,” said Hileman. “Our net interest margin showed improvement in the first quarter with the rise in interest rates and remains well positioned for future rate movements.”
Non-interest income up from first quarter 2016
First Defiance’s non-interest income for the first quarter of 2017 was $10.5 million compared with $8.6 million in the first quarter of 2016. The first quarter 2017 included a $1.5 million enhancement value gain related to the purchase of bank owned life insurance, while the first quarter 2016 included net securities gains of $131,000 and net gains on the sale of OREO of $317,000.
Mortgage banking income increased to $1.7 million in the first quarter of 2017, up from $1.5 million in the first quarter of 2016, mostly due to higher mortgage volumes this year compared to a year ago. Gains from the sale of mortgage loans increased in the first quarter of 2017 to $1.1 million from $1.0 million in the first quarter of 2016. Mortgage loan servicing revenue was $934,000 in the first quarter of 2017, up slightly from $877,000 in the first quarter of 2016. First Defiance had a positive change in the valuation adjustment in mortgage servicing assets of $33,000 in the first quarter of 2017 compared with a negative adjustment of $21,000 in the first quarter of 2016.
For the first quarter 2017, service fees and other charges were $2.8 million, up from $2.6 million in the first quarter of 2016; and commissions from the sale of insurance products were $3.5 million, up from $3.1 million in the first quarter of 2016. The first quarter typically includes contingent revenues, bonuses paid by insurance carriers when the Company achieves certain loss ratios or growth targets. In the first quarter of 2017, First Defiance’s insurance subsidiary, First Insurance Group, earned $1.2 million of contingent income, compared to $799,000 during the first quarter of 2016. Trust income was $450,000 in the first quarter of 2017, up from $427,000 in the first quarter of 2016.
“First quarter total non-interest income was up significantly from a year ago due to growth in all of our key business lines plus an enhancement to our bank-owned life insurance revenues,” said Hileman. “Increases in service fees, mortgage banking, insurance commissions and trust income all contributed to our improvement this quarter.”
Non-interest expenses up from first quarter 2016
Total non-interest expense was $23.1 million in the first quarter of 2017, up $5.8 million from $17.3 million in the first quarter of 2016. The first quarter 2017 included expenses of $3.6 million related to the CSB merger and conversion. The remainder of the increase was mostly due to the operating costs for CSB from February 24 to the end of the quarter. Compensation and benefits increased to $14.3 million in the first quarter of 2017 compared to $10.2 million in the first quarter of 2016. The increase in compensation and benefits from a year ago is mainly due to $2.8 million of merger costs to settle employment and benefit agreements and for personnel expenses related to operating the new CSB locations. Data processing cost was $1.9 million in the first quarter of 2017, up $479,000 from the first quarter of 2016 and included $124,000 of CSB merger and conversion related costs. Other non-interest expense of $4.0 million in the first quarter of 2017 increased $1.1 million from the first quarter of 2016 and included $667,000 of CSB merger and conversion related costs.
Credit quality
Non-performing loans totaled $15.1 million at March 31, 2017, a decrease from $17.7 million at March 31, 2016. In addition, First Defiance had $705,000 of OREO at March 31, 2017, compared to $1.1 million at March 31, 2016. Accruing troubled debt restructured loans were $9.8 million at March 31, 2017, compared with $11.3 million at March 31, 2016.
The allowance for loan loss as a percentage of total loans was 1.15% at March 31, 2017 compared with 1.41% at March 31, 2016. The decrease in the allowance for loan loss as a percentage of total loans was primarily attributable to the CSB acquisition. The CSB loans acquired were recorded at fair value with purchase accounting adjustment discounting the loan balance instead of an allowance for loan losses. Excluding the loans acquired from CSB the allowance for loan loss as a percentage of loans would be 1.32% at March 31, 2017. For the CSB loans acquired the discount recorded totaled $5.1 million, or 1.8% of total CSB loans at acquisition.
The first quarter 2017 results include a provision for loan losses of $55,000 compared with $364,000 for the same period in 2016, while net charge-offs totaled $190,000 in the current quarter in comparison to net charge-offs of $78,000 in the first quarter of 2016.
“Asset quality remained steady and strong in the first quarter,” said Hileman. “While the accounting rules for the acquisition affect some of our key asset quality measures, the Commercial Savings Bank loan portfolio had many similarities to ours and we are very confident in our credit strength as we pursue our growth strategies going forward.”
Total assets at $2.9 billion
Total assets at March 31, 2017, were $2.93 billion compared to $2.48 billion at December 31, 2016 and $2.36 billion at March 31, 2016. The increase in the current quarter is primarily due to the acquisition of CSB effective February 24, 2017, which added $369.5 million to total assets, net of $12.3 million paid in cash, at consummation.
Net loans receivable (excluding loans held for sale) were $2.21 billion at March 31, 2017, compared to $1.91 billion at December 31, 2016, and $1.80 billion at March 31, 2016. In the current quarter, the acquisition of CSB added $285.7 million to the loan portfolio. At March 31, 2017, excluding the CSB acquired loans, net loans receivable grew $128.1 million, or 7.1% from a year ago.
Also, at March 31, 2017, goodwill and other intangible assets totaled $97.1 million compared to $63.1 million at December 31, 2016 and $63.5 million at March 31, 2016. The increase in the current quarter was attributable to the acquisition of CSB which added $34.2 million to goodwill and intangibles.
Total deposits at March 31, 2017 were $2.37 billion compared with $1.98 billion at December 31, 2016, and $1.87 billion at March 31, 2016. In the current quarter, the acquisition of CSB added $308.0 million to total deposits. At March 31, 2017, excluding the CSB acquired deposits, total deposits grew $194.6 million, or 10.4% from a year ago.
Total stockholders’ equity was $354.2 million at March 31, 2017, compared to $293.0 million at December 31, 2016, and $280.4 million at March 31, 2016. The acquisition of CSB during the current quarter added $56.5 million to total equity.
