Webster Reports 2016 Second Quarter Earnings

PR Newswire

WATERBURY, Conn., July 20, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Webster Financial Corporation (NYSE: WBS), the holding company for Webster Bank, N.A., today announced earnings applicable to common shareholders of $48.4 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 compared to $49.8 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2015. The second quarter of 2015 included a $3.7 million net tax benefit, or $0.04 per diluted share.

"Double-digit loan growth once again propelled strong revenue growth as Webster bankers continued to excel in service to businesses and consumers," said James C. Smith, chairman and chief executive officer. "Loan originations in excess of $1 billion, coupled with exceptionally strong credit metrics, helped overcome margin pressure from today's historically low interest rate environment to produce another solid quarter."

Highlights for the second quarter of 2016 compared to the second quarter of 2015:

  • Revenue of $242.0 million, an increase of 8.6 percent, including a record level of net interest income of $176.9 million.

  • Loan growth of $1.5 billion, or 10.1 percent, with growth of $1.1 billion in commercial and commercial real estate loans.

  • Deposit growth of $1.5 billion, or 8.9 percent, with growth of $1.1 billion in transactional and health savings account deposits.

  • Efficiency ratio (non-GAAP) of 61.47 percent

  • Annualized return on average tangible common shareholders' equity (non-GAAP) of 11.25 percent.

"Ongoing strategic investments in our businesses, along with continued expense discipline, are designed to maximize shareholder value over time," said Glenn MacInnes, executive vice president and chief financial officer.

Prior period information:

Certain previously reported information has been modified to reflect immaterial corrections to HSA Bank results related to service fee revenue accruals and technology expense accruals in prior periods. Comparisons to prior periods in this press release reflect these corrections. See the detailed reconciliation in our attached tables.

Quarterly net interest income compared to the second quarter of 2015:

  • Net interest income was $176.9 million compared to $163.5 million.

  • Net charge-offs were $7.8 million compared to $16.4 million in the prior quarter and $6.9 million a year ago. The prior quarter increase in net charge-offs was primarily related to the commercial segment.

Quarterly non-interest income compared to the second quarter of 2015:

  • Total non-interest income was $65.1 million compared to $59.2 million, an increase of $5.9 million.

Quarterly non-interest expense compared to the second quarter of 2015:

The remaining $5.2 million increase reflects higher compensation expense and other expenses.

Quarterly income taxes compared to the second quarter of 2015:

The carrying value of the available-for-sale portfolio included $19.5 million of net unrealized gains compared to $1.6 million at March 31, 2016 and $14.9 million a year ago, while the carrying value of the held-to-maturity portfolio does not reflect $106.8 million of net unrealized gains compared to $82.2 million at March 31, 2016 and $50.6 million a year ago.

  • Loan originations for portfolio were $1.314 billion compared to $900 million in the prior quarter and $1.363 billion a year ago. In addition, $109 million of residential loans were originated for sale in the quarter compared to $73 million in the prior quarter and $147 million a year ago.

Asset quality:

  • Total nonperforming loans were $132.9 million, or 0.82 percent of total loans, compared to $140.7 million, or 0.89 percent, at March 31, 2016 and $167.9 million, or 1.14 percent, a year ago.

Forward-Looking Statements

This release contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the "Act"). Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as "believes," "anticipates," "expects," "intends," "targeted," "continue," "remain," "will," "should," "may," "plans," "estimates," and similar references to future periods; however, such words are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements.  Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: (i) projections of revenues, expenses, income or loss, earnings or loss per share, and other financial items; (ii) statements of plans, objectives, and expectations of Webster or its management or Board of Directors; (iii) statements of future economic performance; and (iv) statements of assumptions underlying such statements. Forward-looking statements are based on Webster's current expectations and assumptions regarding its business, the economy, and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Webster's actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements, which are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future performance. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: (1) local, regional, national, and international economic conditions and the impact they may have on us and our customers and our assessment of that impact; (2) volatility and disruption in national and international financial markets; (3) government intervention in the U.S. financial system; (4) changes in the level of nonperforming assets and charge-offs; (5) changes in estimates of future reserve requirements based upon the periodic review thereof under relevant regulatory and accounting requirements; (6) adverse conditions in the securities markets that lead to impairment in the value of securities in our investment portfolio; (7) inflation, interest rate, securities market, and monetary fluctuations; (8) the timely development and acceptance of new products and services and perceived overall value of these products and services by customers; (9) changes in consumer spending, borrowings, and savings habits; (10) technological changes and cyber-security matters; (11) the ability to increase market share and control expenses; (12) changes in the competitive environment among banks, financial holding companies, and other financial services providers; (13) the effect of changes in laws and regulations (including laws and regulations concerning taxes, banking, securities, and insurance) with which we and our subsidiaries must comply, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act; (14) the effect of changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the regulatory agencies, as well as the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, and other accounting standard setters; (15) the costs and effects of legal and regulatory developments including the resolution of legal proceedings or regulatory or other governmental inquiries and the results of regulatory examinations or reviews; (16) our success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing items and (17) the other factors that are described in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q under the headings "Risk Factors" and 'Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation."  Any forward-looking statement made by the Company in this release speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause the Company's actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict all of them. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of net income and other performance ratios, as adjusted, is included in the accompanying selected financial highlights table.

We believe that providing certain non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with information useful in understanding our financial performance, our performance trends and financial position. We utilize these measures for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We, as well as securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties, also use these measures to compare peer company operating performance. We believe that our presentation and discussion, together with the accompanying reconciliations, provides a complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business and allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to management. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures and results, and we strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.

WEBSTER FINANCIAL CORPORATION
Reconciliations to GAAP Financial Measures




















The Company evaluates its business based on certain ratios that utilize tangible equity, a non-GAAP financial measure. Return on average tangible common shareholders' equity measures the Company's net income available to common shareholders, adjusted for the tax-affected amortization of intangible assets, as a percentage of average shareholders' equity less average preferred stock and average goodwill and intangible assets. The tangible equity ratio represents shareholders' equity less goodwill and intangible assets divided by total assets less goodwill and intangible assets. The tangible common equity ratio represents shareholders' equity less preferred stock and goodwill and intangible assets divided by total assets less goodwill and intangible assets. Tangible book value per common share represents shareholders' equity less preferred stock and goodwill and intangible assets divided by common shares outstanding at the end of the period.



The efficiency ratio, which measures the costs expended to generate a dollar of revenue, is calculated excluding foreclosed property expense, amortization of intangibles, gain or loss on securities, and other non-recurring items. Core deposits express total deposits less time deposits. Accordingly, these are also non-GAAP financial measures.



The Company believes the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides additional clarity in assessing the results of the Company. Other companies may define or calculate supplemental financial data differently. See the tables below for reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures with financial measures defined by GAAP.
