HOUSTON, July 26, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Allegiance Bancshares, Inc. (NASDAQ:ABTX) ("Allegiance"), the holding company of Allegiance Bank (the "Bank"), today reported net income of $7.6 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.55 for the second quarter 2018 compared to $5.4 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.40 for the second quarter 2017.  The second quarter 2018 results include $1.1 million and $625 thousand of core system conversion and merger related expenses, respectively.  Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $15.3 million, or $1.12 per diluted share, compared to $11.4 million, or $0.85 per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

"This quarter was an exciting one for us as we further executed our growth strategies. We generated continued organic loan and deposit growth, successfully completed our core technology conversion and advanced our acquisition strategy by announcing a transaction with Post Oak Bancshares, Inc. headquartered in Houston, Texas," said George Martinez, Allegiance's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.  "Allegiance and Post Oak share the same tradition of customer, employee and community bank focus and we continue to anticipate that the acquisition will close in the fourth quarter of 2018. We are excited about this partnership and the opportunities that will further enhance our value as Houston's largest community bank," commented Martinez.

"I would like to thank our outstanding team of dedicated employees for a remarkable job well done as we effectively enhanced our core  system during the quarter.  Our employees continue to ensure an outstanding customer experience every day to help our bank grow and innovate while working diligently to deliver great results.  We believe that this quarter's results reflect our commitment to our customers and the enhancement of shareholder value," concluded Martinez.

Second Quarter 2018 Results

Net interest income before provision for loan losses in the second quarter 2018 increased $2.7 million, or 10.8%, to $27.8 million from $25.1 million for the second quarter 2017 primarily due to organic loan growth partially offset by interest expense on the subordinated debt that was issued in December 2017.  Net interest income before provision for loan losses in the second quarter 2018 increased slightly from $26.9 million in the first quarter 2018.  The net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis decreased eight basis points to 4.21% for the second quarter 2018 from 4.29% for the second quarter 2017 and increased one basis point from 4.20% for the first quarter 2018. The decrease from the prior year is primarily due to the increase in interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities driven in part by the subordinated debt issuance in December 2017.

Noninterest income for the second quarter 2018 was $1.8 million, an increase of $328 thousand, or 22.2%, compared to $1.5 million for the second quarter 2017 and increased $159 thousand compared to $1.6 million for the first quarter 2018.

Noninterest expense for the second quarter 2018 increased $3.4 million, or 20.4%, to $19.9 million from $16.5 million for the second quarter 2017, and increased $1.1 million, or 6.1%, from $18.7 million for the first quarter 2018. The increases in noninterest expense over the second quarter 2017 and the linked quarter were primarily due to expenses of $1.1 million related to the core system conversion and $625 thousand of merger related expenses. In the second quarter 2018, Allegiance’s efficiency ratio increased to 67.05% from 61.92% for the second quarter 2017 and increased from 65.59% for the first quarter 2018.  Second quarter 2018 annualized returns on average assets, average equity and average tangible equity were 1.03%, 9.55% and 11.02%, respectively, compared to 0.81%, 7.32% and 8.57%, respectively, for the second quarter 2017.  Annualized returns on average assets, average equity and average tangible equity for the first quarter 2018 were 1.09%, 10.10% and 11.71%, respectively.

Six Months Ended June 30, 2018 Results

Net interest income before provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased $5.5 million, or 11.1%, to $54.7 million from $49.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017 primarily due to organic loan growth partially offset by the increased interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities.  The net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis decreased 13 basis points to 4.20% for the six months ended June 30, 2018 from 4.33% for the six months ended June 30, 2017 primarily due to the increase in interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities driven in part by the subordinated debt issuance in December 2017

Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $3.5 million, an increase of $633 thousand, or 22.5%, compared to $2.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2018 increased $5.6 million, or 16.9%, to $38.6 million from $33.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2017.  The increase in noninterest expense over the six months ended June 30, 2017 was primarily due to expenses related to the core system conversion of $1.5 million and the merger related expenses of $625 thousand during the six months ended June 30, 2018.

During the six months ended June 30, 2018, Allegiance’s efficiency ratio increased to 66.33% from 63.41% for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

For the six months ended June 30, 2018, annualized returns on average assets, average equity and average tangible equity were 1.06%, 9.82% and 11.36%, respectively, compared to 0.89%, 7.95% and 9.34%, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Allegiance Bancshares, Inc.
GAAP Reconciliation and Management’s Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(Unaudited)

Allegiance’s management uses certain non−GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures to evaluate its performance. Allegiance believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance.  Allegiance believes that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing Allegiance’s performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods. Specifically, Allegiance reviews tangible book value per common share, return on average tangible equity and the ratio of tangible equity to tangible assets for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Allegiance has included in this Earnings Release information relating to these non-GAAP financial measures for the applicable periods presented.  These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which Allegiance calculates the non-GAAP financial measures may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.
