Fulton Financial Corporation Announces First Quarter 2024 Results

LANCASTER, Pa.--()--Fulton Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: FULT) (“Fulton” or the “Corporation”) reported net income available to common shareholders of $59.4 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024, a decrease of $2.3 million, or 3.8%, in comparison to the fourth quarter of 2023. Operating net income available to common shareholders for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was $65.4 million, or $0.40 per diluted share(1), a decrease of $3.5 million, or 5.0% in comparison to the fourth quarter of 2023.

We are pleased with our first quarter results, which are a good start to the year; operating earnings were solid, deposit growth outpaced loan growth during the quarter, net interest margin was in line with our expectations, and asset quality remained stable,” said Curtis J. Myers, Chairman and CEO of Fulton Financial Corporation. “We are focused and making progress on our strategic initiatives.”

Net Interest Income and Balance Sheet

Net interest income for the first quarter of 2024 was $206.9 million, a decrease of $5.1 million in comparison to the fourth quarter of 2023, due to slight decreases in both average interest-earning assets and the net interest margin.

Total average interest-earning assets for the first quarter of 2024 were $25.6 billion, a decrease of $41.0 million from the fourth quarter of 2023 primarily driven by a decrease in average investment securities and average other interest-earning assets of $137.0 million and $18.3 million, respectively, partially offset by an increase in average net loans of $114.3 million.

Total average interest-bearing liabilities increased $347.9 million to $18.9 billion in the first quarter of 2024 in comparison to $18.6 billion in the fourth quarter of 2023. The increase in average interest-bearing liabilities was driven by an increase in the average balance of total interest-bearing deposits and the average balance of borrowings and other interest-bearing liabilities of $281.2 million and $66.6 million, respectively.

The net interest margin for the first quarter of 2024 decreased four basis points to 3.32% in comparison to 3.36% in the fourth quarter of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to an increase in the rate on average interest-bearing deposits and a shift in the funding mix from noninterest-bearing demand deposits to interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by higher loan yields and a lower rate on average borrowings and other interest-bearing liabilities.

A seven basis point increase in the yield on average net loans and an increase in the average balance of net loans of $114.3 million in the first quarter of 2024 drove an increase in interest income of $1.5 million to $339.7 million in comparison to $338.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities for the first quarter of 2024 increased by $6.6 million to $132.7 million in comparison to $126.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. The linked-quarter increase in interest expense in the first quarter of 2024 was primarily due to an increase in the rate on average interest-bearing deposits of 16 basis points, a decline of $379.0 million in the average balance of noninterest-bearing deposits and an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits of $281.2 million in comparison to the fourth quarter of 2023, partially offset by a decrease in the rate on borrowings and other interest-bearing liabilities of 12 basis points.

For the first quarter of 2024, net interest income was $206.9 million, a decrease of $8.7 million, or 4.0%, in comparison to the first quarter of 2023. Interest income for the first quarter of 2024 increased by $49.8 million to $339.7 million in comparison to $289.8 million in the first quarter of 2023, primarily driven by rising interest rates resulting in an increase in interest income from net loans of $50.6 million.

Total average interest-earning assets for the first quarter of 2024 increased by $357.0 million from the first quarter of 2023. Average net loans for the first quarter of 2024 were $21.4 billion, an increase of $0.9 billion from the same period in 2023. Compared to the first quarter of 2023, average investment securities decreased $305.9 million and average other interest-earning assets decreased $244.1 million in the first quarter of 2024.

Total average interest-bearing liabilities for the first quarter of 2024 increased $1.9 billion to $18.9 billion in comparison to $17.0 billion in the first quarter of 2023, driven by an increase in the average balance of total interest-bearing deposits of $2.4 billion, partially offset by a decrease in the average balance of borrowings and other interest-bearing liabilities of $0.5 billion.

Increases in the average balance of net loans of $0.9 billion and yields on net loans of 69 basis points in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2023 each contributed to the increase in interest income.

Interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities for the first quarter of 2024 increased by $58.5 million to $132.7 million in comparison to $74.2 million in the first quarter of 2023, primarily driven by rising interest rates resulting in an increase to interest expense from interest-bearing deposits of $62.0 million. A decrease in the average balance of noninterest-bearing deposits of $1.6 billion and an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits of $2.4 billion, in the first quarter of 2024 in comparison to the first quarter of 2023 also contributed to the increase in interest expense.

Asset Quality

The provision for credit losses was $10.9 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared to $9.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 and $24.5 million in the first quarter of 2023. The provision for credit losses of $10.9 million recorded in the first quarter of 2024 was primarily due to net charge-offs of $8.6 million and loan growth.

Non-performing assets were $156.4 million, or 0.57% of total assets, at March 31, 2024, in comparison to $154.2 million, or 0.56% of total assets, at December 31, 2023, and $167.9 million, or 0.62% of total assets, at March 31, 2023.

Net charge-offs for the first quarter of 2024 were 0.16% of total average loans in comparison to 0.15% and 0.27% in the fourth quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2023, respectively.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income before investment securities gains (losses) in the first quarter of 2024 was $57.1 million, a decrease of $3.0 million, or 5.0%, from the fourth quarter of 2023. The decrease in non-interest income was due to a $2.0 million decrease in commercial customer interest rate swap fee income, reflected in capital markets, a $2.2 million decrease in other non-interest income (including a $0.9 million decrease in income from equity method investments and a $1.0 million net change from market movements in our commercial customer interest rate swap program resulting from the reference rate transition from the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR")). These decreases were partially offset by increases in wealth management revenues due to an increase in assets under management and mortgage banking income due to higher loan sales volumes and higher spreads.

Compared to the first quarter of 2023, non-interest income before investment securities gains (losses) increased $5.4 million, or 10.5%, from $51.7 million. The increase in non-interest income was primarily due to increases of $2.1 million in wealth management revenues due to an increase in assets under management, $1.3 million in commercial banking income, $1.1 million in mortgage banking income and $0.5 million in consumer banking income. The increase in commercial banking income was primarily due to increases of $0.8 million in cash management fee income and $0.3 million in gains on sale from Small Business Administration loans, reflected in other commercial banking income. The increase in mortgage banking income was driven by higher loan sale volumes and higher spreads.

Non-interest Expense

Non-interest expense was $177.6 million in the first quarter of 2024, a decrease of $3.0 million, or 1.6%, compared to $180.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a $5.0 million decrease in FDIC insurance expense, which included special assessment charges of $1.0 million in the first quarter of 2024 and $6.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2023, assessed to recover the loss to the Deposit Insurance Fund in connection with the closures of certain banks in 2023. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in FultonFirst implementation costs and loss on asset disposals of $3.1 million. The FultonFirst implementation costs and loss on asset disposals of $6.3 million in the first quarter of 2024 included a $3.6 million loss on disposal of assets, reflected in other non-interest expense, $2.5 million of consulting service expense, included in other outside services, and $0.2 million of severance expense, reflected in salaries and employee benefits expense. The FultonFirst implementation costs and loss on asset disposals of $3.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 included $2.6 million of consulting services, reflected in other outside services, and $0.6 million of severance expense, included in salaries and employee benefits expense.

Excluding FultonFirst implementation costs and loss on asset disposals, and FDIC expense noted above in the first quarter of 2024 and the fourth quarter of 2023, non-interest expense decreased $0.5 million, or 0.3%, compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, largely due to decreases in marketing expense of $1.6 million and salaries and employee benefits expense of $1.4 million, partially offset by increases in snow removal costs of $1.1 million, included in net occupancy expense, $0.7 million in data processing and software expense and a debt extinguishment gain of $0.7 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2023. The $1.6 million decrease in marketing expense was the result of higher costs incurred in the fourth quarter of 2023 related to a targeted customer deposit acquisition program and brand marketing campaigns in growth markets. The $1.4 million decrease in salaries and benefits expense was primarily due to a decrease in healthcare costs and variable incentive expenses, partially offset by an increase in payroll taxes due to the reset of payroll tax caps.

Compared to the first quarter of 2023, excluding the FultonFirst implementation costs and loss on asset disposals of $6.3 million discussed above, non-interest expense increased $11.7 million, or 7.3%. The increase was primarily due to increases of $6.0 million in salaries and employee benefits expense, $1.9 million in data processing and software expense primarily due to technology investments made in 2023, $1.7 million in net occupancy expense driven by snow removal costs, $1.3 million in FDIC insurance, which includes the $1.0 million special assessment charge noted above, and $0.7 million in other outside services expense. The $6.0 million increase in salaries and benefits expense was primarily due to merit increases and healthcare costs.

Income Tax Expense

For the first quarter of 2024 the effective tax rate was 18.0% in comparison to 18.5% for the full-year of 2023.

(dollars in thousands, except per share and share data)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Explanatory note:

This press release contains supplemental financial information, as detailed below, that has been derived by methods other than GAAP. The Corporation has presented these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes that these measures provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in the Corporation's results of operations and financial condition. Presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is consistent with how the Corporation evaluates its performance internally and these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the Corporation's industry. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP measures, are also useful to investors to evaluate the Corporation's results. Investors should recognize that the Corporation's presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures might not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures, and the Corporation strongly encourages a review of its condensed consolidated financial statements in their entirety. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure follow:
