COLUMBUS, Ga.--()--Synovus Financial Corp.

Leveraging the strength of our core franchise while leaning into our solid, transformational growth plan, we will enhance performance throughout the year while proactively pursuing new and expanded sources of revenue.

Core Performance

  • Net interest income of $392.2 million was flat sequentially, despite lower day count and PPP fees, and increased $18.4 million, or 5%, compared to prior year.
    • Net PPP fee accretion of $6.9 million, down $5.8 million sequentially and down $18.0 million year-over-year.
    • Net interest margin was 3.00%, up 4 bps sequentially, aided by efficient balance sheet management.
  • Non-interest revenue decreased $11.7 million, or 10%, sequentially and decreased $5.6 million, or 5%, compared to prior year. Adjusted non-interest revenue decreased $9.2 million, or 8%, sequentially and decreased $5.5 million, or 5%, compared to prior year.
    • Quarter-over-quarter decline was primarily related to an $8 million BOLI benefit in the previous quarter.
    • Year-over-year decline was primarily due to lower mortgage banking income resulting from increasing mortgage rates and lower refinancing volumes.
  • Non-interest expense decreased $22.8 million, or 8%, sequentially and increased $5.3 million, or 2%, compared to prior year. Adjusted non-interest expense decreased $6.1 million, or 2%, sequentially and increased $13.7 million, or 5%, compared to prior year.
    • Quarter-over-quarter decline was a result of prudent expense management and the normalization of expense from an unusually high fourth quarter of 2021.
    • Year-over-year increase was primarily due to incentives and costs associated with elevated performance.
  • Credit quality ratios remain strong and near historical lows. The net charge-off ratio for the quarter was 0.19%; both the non-performing loan and asset ratios remained flat at 0.33% and 0.40%, respectively; and total past dues were 0.11% of total loans outstanding.
  • Provision for credit losses of $11.4 million compared to a reversal of provision for credit losses of $55.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2021; allowance for credit losses coverage ratio (to loans) of 1.15%, a decline of 4 bps sequentially. Drivers of the decline included positive trends in our credit performance and loan mix mostly offset by economic uncertainty which slowed the pace of the allowance decline this quarter.
  • The effective tax rate was 19.98% for the quarter.

Capital

  • Preliminary CET1 ratio declined 3 bps during the quarter to 9.47%, and the preliminary total risk-based capital ratio of 12.53% declined 8 bps from the previous quarter as capital generated through earnings helped offset the impact of loan growth and a $0.34 dividend for common shareholders.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release and certain of our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission contain statements that constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of, and subject to the protections of, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. You can identify these forward-looking statements through Synovus’ use of words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “may,” “will,” “assumes,” “should,” “predicts,” “could,” “would,” “intends,” “targets,” “estimates,” “projects,” “plans,” “potential” and other similar words and expressions of the future or otherwise regarding the outlook for Synovus’ future business and financial performance and/or the performance of the banking industry and economy in general. These forward-looking statements include, among others, our expectations regarding our future operating and financial performance; expectations on our growth strategy, expense and revenue initiatives, capital management, balance sheet management, and future profitability; expectations on credit quality and performance; and the assumptions underlying our expectations. Prospective investors are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Synovus to be materially different from the future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on the information known to, and current beliefs and expectations of, Synovus’ management and are subject to significant risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by such forward-looking statements. A number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements in this press release. Many of these factors are beyond Synovus’ ability to control or predict.

These forward-looking statements are based upon information presently known to Synovus’ management and are inherently subjective, uncertain and subject to change due to any number of risks and uncertainties, including, without limitation, the risks and other factors set forth in Synovus’ filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, under the captions “Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” and in Synovus’ quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K. We believe these forward-looking statements are reasonable; however, undue reliance should not be placed on any forward-looking statements, which are based on current expectations and speak only as of the date that they are made. We do not assume any obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as otherwise may be required by law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The measures entitled adjusted non-interest revenue; adjusted non-interest expense; total adjusted revenue; adjusted tangible efficiency ratio; adjusted pre-provision net revenue; adjusted net income available to common shareholders; adjusted diluted earnings per share; adjusted return on average assets; adjusted return on average common equity; return on average tangible common equity; adjusted return on average tangible common equity; and tangible common equity ratio are not measures recognized under GAAP and therefore are considered non-GAAP financial measures. The most comparable GAAP measures to these measures are total non-interest revenue; total non-interest expense; total TE revenue; efficiency ratio-TE; pre-provision net revenue; net income available to common shareholders; diluted earnings per share; return on average assets; return on average common equity; and the ratio of total shareholders' equity to total assets, respectively.

Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful additional information about Synovus to assist management and investors in evaluating Synovus’ operating results, financial strength, the performance of its business, and the strength of its capital position. However, these non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analyses of operating results or capital position as reported under GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as additional views of the way our financial measures are affected by significant items and other factors, and since they are not required to be uniformly applied, they may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures at other companies. Total adjusted revenue and adjusted non-interest revenue are measures used by management to evaluate total TE revenue and non-interest revenue exclusive of net investment securities gains (losses) and fair value adjustment on non-qualified deferred compensation. Adjusted non-interest expense and the adjusted tangible efficiency ratio are measures utilized by management to measure the success of expense management initiatives focused on reducing recurring controllable operating costs. Adjusted pre-provision net revenue is used by management to evaluate pre-tax earnings exclusive of provision for credit losses, which can vary significantly, and other items that management believes are not indicative of ongoing operations and affect period-to-period comparisons. Adjusted net income available to common shareholders, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted return on average assets, and adjusted return on average common equity are measures used by management to evaluate operating results exclusive of items that are not indicative of ongoing operations and impact period-to-period comparisons. Return on average tangible common equity and adjusted return on average tangible common equity are measures used by management to compare Synovus’ performance with other financial institutions because it calculates the return available to common shareholders without the impact of intangible assets and their related amortization, thereby allowing management to evaluate the performance of the business consistently. The tangible common equity ratio is used by management to assess the strength of our capital position. The computations of these measures are set forth in the tables below.
