TULSA, OK / ACCESSWIRE / January 24, 2024 /

CEO Commentary

Stacy Kymes, president and chief executive officer, stated, "I am exceptionally proud of the BOKF team and our results this year - the second highest earnings we have ever achieved. Our focus at BOKF has always been on providing long-term shareholder value driven by our diverse business model and talented team, both of which empower us to perform well during any economic environment. This was once again proven when the industry faced stress in the first half the year and our company was well prepared. Our disciplined risk management, which extends beyond the credit risk management that has long been a strength, resulted in strong levels of capital and liquidity at a critical time. We took advantage of this position to thoughtfully grow when others were pulling back. We have made real investments in growing our core C&I loans, while also investing in people and new markets like central Texas. While the fourth quarter was exceptionally noisy with numerous non-recurring items, our core results were very strong serving as a great starting point for 2024."

Fourth Quarter 2023 Financial Highlights

(Unless indicated otherwise, all comparisons are to the prior quarter)

  • Net income was $82.6 million or $1.26 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to $134.5 million or $2.04 per diluted share for the third quarter of 2023. The fourth quarter included a 52 cent per share reduction as a result of the FDIC special assessment.
  • Net interest revenue totaled $296.7 million, a decrease of $4.2 million compared to the prior quarter. Net interest margin was 2.64 percent compared to 2.69 percent, primarily due to deposit repricing activity and liability mix-shift. For the fourth quarter of 2023, our core net interest margin excluding trading activities, a non-GAAP measure, was 3.03 percent compared to 3.14 percent in the prior quarter.
  • Fees and commissions revenue was $196.8 million, largely consistent with the prior quarter. Lower brokerage and trading revenue and other revenue was offset by increased transaction card revenue.
  • Operating expense increased $59.8 million to $384.1 million. Personnel expense grew $12.2 million with higher regular compensation, incentive compensation, including deferred compensation plans, and employee benefits expense. Non-personnel expense increased $47.5 million including the FDIC special assessment of $43.8 million. Increased professional fees and services, business promotion, and charitable expenses were partially offset by lower occupancy and equipment costs.
  • Other gains and losses, net increased $39.0 million to $40.5 million. This quarter included a $31.0 million pre-tax gain, before related professional fees, on the sale of our insurance brokerage and consulting business, BOKF Insurance. The value of our deferred compensation investments also increased $5.9 million versus a decline of $427 thousand in the prior quarter.
  • Losses on available for sale securities totaled $27.6 million in the fourth quarter. The gain on sale received from the disposition of BOKF Insurance was used to reposition a small portion of our available for sale securities portfolio.
  • The effective tax rate was 26.0 percent for the fourth quarter of 2023, an increase from 19.8 percent for the prior quarter. The fourth quarter of 2023 included an acceleration of $3.1 million of tax expense as a result of exiting three low income housing tax credit investments. The third quarter of 2023 included a reduction in tax expense resulting from decreases in uncertain tax positions.
  • Period-end loans grew by $181 million to $23.9 billion at December 31, 2023, mostly driven by growth in commercial loans and commercial real estate loans secured by multifamily properties. Average outstanding loan balances were $23.7 billion, a $291 million increase.
  • The provision for credit losses of $6.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 reflects a stable economic forecast and continued loan growth. Net charge-offs were $4.1 million or 0.07 percent of average loans on an annualized basis in the fourth quarter. The resulting combined allowance for credit losses totaled $326 million or 1.36 percent of outstanding loans at December 31, 2023 compared to $325 million or 1.37 percent of outstanding loans at September 30, 2023.

Adjusted for all unrealized securities portfolio gains and losses, including those in the investment portfolio, the tangible common equity ratio would be 8.02 percent.
  • The company's common equity Tier 1 capital ratio was 12.06 percent at December 31, 2023. In addition, the company's Tier 1 capital ratio was 12.07 percent, total capital ratio was 13.16 percent, and leverage ratio was 9.45 percent at December 31, 2023.

Healthcare sector loan balances increased $60 million, totaling $4.1 billion or 17 percent of total loans. Our healthcare sector loans primarily consist of $3.4 billion of senior housing and care facilities, including independent living, assisted living and skilled nursing. Generally, we loan to borrowers with a portfolio of multiple facilities, which serves to help diversify risks specific to a single facility.

Services sector loan balances increased $9.9 million to $3.6 billion or 15 percent of total loans. Services loans consist of a large number of loans to a variety of businesses, including Native American tribal and state and local municipal government entities, Native American tribal casino operations, foundations and not-for-profit organizations, educational services and specialty trade contractors.

Energy loan balances decreased $54 million to $3.4 billion or 14 percent of total loans. The majority of this portfolio is first lien, senior secured, reserve-based lending to oil and gas producers, which we believe is the lowest risk form of energy lending. Approximately 69 percent of committed production loans are secured by properties primarily producing oil. The remaining 31 percent is secured by properties primarily producing natural gas. Unfunded energy loan commitments were $4.5 billion at December 31, 2023, a $436 million increase compared September 30, 2023.

Loans secured by industrial facilities increased $43 million to $1.5 billion. This growth was partially offset by a $72 million decrease in loans secured by office facilities and a $15 million decrease in loans secured by retail properties. Unfunded commercial real estate loan commitments were $1.8 billion at December 31, 2023, a decrease of $147 million compared to September 30, 2023.

Loans to individuals were largely unchanged compared to September 30, 2023 and represent 16 percent of total loans. An increase of $58 million in residential mortgage loans was offset by a decrease in personal loans.

Liquidity and Capital

Our funding sources, which primarily include deposits and borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Banks, provide adequate liquidity to meet our needs. The loan to deposit ratio was 70 percent at December 31, 2023, consistent with the prior quarter, providing significant on-balance sheet liquidity to meet future loan demand and contractual obligations.

Period-end deposits totaled $34.0 billion at December 31, 2023, a $367 million increase. Interest-bearing transaction account balances increased $1.1 billion while time deposits increased $85 million. Demand deposits decreased $778 million.

At the beginning of 2020, we elected to delay the regulatory capital impact of the transition of the allowance for credit losses from the incurred loss methodology to CECL for two years, followed by a three-year transition period. This election added 6 basis points to the company's common equity tier 1 capital ratio at December 31, 2023. At September 30, 2023, the company's common equity Tier 1 capital ratio was 12.06 percent, Tier 1 capital ratio was 12.07 percent, total capital ratio was 13.16 percent, and leverage ratio was 9.52 percent.

The company's tangible common equity ratio, a non-GAAP measure, was 8.29 percent at December 31, 2023 and 7.74 percent at September 30, 2023. The tangible common equity ratio is primarily based on total shareholders' equity, which includes unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities. Adjusted for all unrealized securities portfolio gains and losses, including those in the investment portfolio, the tangible common equity ratio would be 8.02 percent. The company has elected to exclude unrealized gains and losses from available for sale securities from its calculation of Tier 1 capital for regulatory capital purposes, consistent with the treatment under the previous capital rules.

The company repurchased 700,237 shares of common stock at an average price paid of $70.99 a share in the fourth quarter of 2023. We pursue share buybacks opportunistically, but within the context of maintaining our strong capital position.

Explanation of Non-GAAP Measure

The tangible common equity ratio and return on average tangible common equity are primarily based on total shareholders' equity, which includes unrealized gains and losses on available for sale securities, less intangible assets and equity that does not benefit common shareholders. The adjusted tangible common equity ratio also includes unrealized gains and losses on the investment portfolio. These measures are valuable indicators of a financial institution's capital strength since they eliminate intangible assets from shareholders' equity and retain the effect of unrealized losses on securities and other components of accumulated other comprehensive income in shareholders' equity.

Pre-provision net revenue is a measure of revenue less expenses and is calculated before provision for credit losses and income tax expense. This financial measure is frequently used by investors and analysts and enables them to assess a company's ability to generate earnings to cover credit losses through a credit cycle. It also provides an additional basis for comparing the results of operations between periods by isolating the impact of the provision for credit losses, which can vary significantly between periods.

The efficiency ratio measures the company's ability to use its assets and manage its liabilities effectively in the current period.

Net interest revenue and net interest margin excluding trading activities removes the effect of trading activities on these metrics allowing management and investors to assess the performance of the company's core lending and deposit activities without the associated volatility from trading activities.

Yield calculations are shown on a tax equivalent basis at the statutory federal and state rates for the periods presented. The yield calculations exclude security trades that have been recorded on trade date with no corresponding interest income and the unrealized gains and losses. The yield calculation also includes average loan balances for which the accrual of interest has been discontinued and are net of unearned income. Yield/rate calculations are generally based on the conventions that determine how interest income and expense is accrued.
