BankUnited Announces Second-Quarter Results for Fiscal 2008
CORAL GABLES, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
BankUnited Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: BKUNA), parent company of BankUnited FSB, today reported a loss of $65.8 million, or $1.88 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, compared to earnings of $24.4 million, or $0.64 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2007.
-- The company increased the provision for loan losses from $4
million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007, to $98.0 million
for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, in response to a weaker
economy, deteriorating residential housing markets and
increased foreclosures.
-- The allowance for loan losses was increased to $202.3 million,
or 1.61% of total loans, as of March 31, 2008.
-- The company has completed Phase I and has begun implementation
of Phase II of a multi-year strategic plan that will
transition BankUnited to a more traditional retail commercial
model.
"This has been a difficult and disappointing quarter," said Alfred R. Camner, BankUnited's chairman and chief executive officer. "Current market conditions, the slumping economy and weakness in the housing markets continue to impact our results. To address these challenges, we have taken steps that will better position us in this challenging economic environment and help us emerge as a stronger institution.
"We increased our provision for loan losses as a result of rising non-performing assets. Our allowance currently totals $202.3 million, or 1.61% of total loans. When considered in proportion to NPAs, losses have remained low. However, we believe it is prudent to maintain a loss reserve that reflects the ongoing deterioration of the housing markets and general economy. We may require future additional provisions as we work our way through this economic cycle."
Camner continued,"BankUnited maintains core and risked-based capital ratios above FCDICIA's guidelines for the well-capitalized category. At March 31, 2008, our core and risk-based capital ratios were 7.8% versus a 5% requirement and 14.6% versus a 10% requirement, respectively.
"Last quarter we launched a strategic planning process focused on transitioning BankUnited to a more traditional retail commercial bank. We have identified major areas of focus, including increasing non-interest income, improving organizational effectiveness and reducing expenses. We will more fully leverage the strength of the retail and commercial aspects of our bank."
Ramiro Ortiz, BankUnited's president and chief operating officer added, "Our retail commercial bank continues to perform well. Deposits and commercial loan balances that meet our strict credit guidelines are growing. In addition, investment sales and other non-interest-income generating areas are increasing their contribution to the bottom line. Customer retention and cross-sell benchmarks continue to improve and our internal service measurements indicate increasing levels of customer satisfaction among our retail customers.
"Notwithstanding the downturn in the housing market, many segments of business in South Florida are growing. The retail, industrial and office markets are holding up. Job growth is steady, unemployment remains below national averages and international business and export statistics remain strong. We have confidence in the state's resilience.
"We remain focused on customer satisfaction, improving processes and controlling expenses. The entire organization is dedicated to working more efficiently while still providing our customers with the levels of service they expect and deserve."
Asset Quality and Credit Standards
The ratio of non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets increased to 4.75% at March 31, 2008, from 2.99% at Dec. 31, 2007, and 0.53% at March 31, 2007.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2008, the provision for loan loss totaled $98.0 million, compared to $65.0 million for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2007, and $4.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007.
Net charge-offs for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, were $13.3 million, or an annualized rate of 0.42 % of average total loans. This compares to $6.0 million, or an annualized rate of 0.19% of average total loans for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2007, and $1.4 million, or an annualized rate of 0.04% of average total loans, for the quarter ended March 31, 2007.
Residential and consumer residential net-charge offs for the quarter were $13.1 million, net of $6.0 million in estimated recoveries from mortgage insurance. Net charge-offs on the consumer portfolio were $128,000, and commercial and commercial real estate net-charge offs were $154,000.
The total allowance for loan losses was $202.3 million at March 31, 2008, compared to $117.7 million at Dec. 31, 2007, and $41.8 million at March 31, 2007. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of the total loan portfolio was 1.61% at March 31, 2008, compared to 0.93% at Dec. 31, 2007, and 0.35% at March 31, 2007.
During the quarter ended March 31, 2008, the company sold 39 properties in its Real Estate Owned (REO) portfolio. In April 2008, 51 REO properties were either sold or under contract to be sold.
BankUnited has adhered to conservative underwriting standards. The company's guidelines have been substantially consistent with the inter-agency lending guidelines since long before their issuance in September 2006. BankUnited is not a subprime lender, and the company has not engaged in piggybacking in which a borrower is made a second mortgage simultaneously with a first mortgage. BankUnited has underwritten to the fully indexed rate and followed strict policies for outside appraisals combined with internal appraisal reviews conducted by the company's own staff.
BankUnited's underwriting standards provide that, in most cases, borrowers of loans originated with loan-to-value (LTV) ratios greater than 80% are required to purchase mortgage insurance. Nineteen percent, or $1.9 billion, of the residential loan portfolio had mortgage insurance as of March 31, 2008. The average LTV of the residential portfolio at inception was 79.4% at March 31, 2008. With the adjustment for coverage of mortgage insurance, the average LTV of the residential portfolio at inception was 75.2%.
The average outstanding balance of a residential loan in the portfolio as of March 31, 2008, was $292,000. Option-ARM balances totaled $7.4 billion, which represented 69% of total residential loan balances and 59% of total loan balances. The growth in negative amortization for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, was $37 million, compared to $47 million for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2007. Of the $7.4 billion in option-ARM balances, $6.7 billion had negative amortization of $354 million, or 4.8%, of the option-ARM portfolio.
BankUnited's option ARM loans are re-amortized over the remaining term at the earlier of five years from inception of the loan or upon reaching 115% of the original principal balance. As of March 31, 2008, a total of 41 loans had reached the maximum 115% of the original loan amount. These 41 loans had an aggregate balance of $13.6 million, or 0.13% of the total residential loan balance as of March 31, 2008. The period from inception to the point at which the loans reached the 115% maximum amount ranged from 30 months to 51 months. The company estimates that approximately $90 million will reach the maximum 115% limit during the remaining quarters of fiscal 2008.
Net-Interest Margin
Net-interest margin for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, was 2.05%, compared to 2.12% for the preceding quarter, and 2.39% for the same quarter last year.
In periods of declining interest rates, the Monthly Treasury Average (MTA) Index, the index to which BankUnited's option ARM residential loans are tied, will lag the decline in general rates as well as the bank's funding rates. Nevertheless, BankUnited expects its margin will continue to be adversely affected by rising non-performing assets.
Deposit Growth and Funding
Total deposits increased by 1% to $6.9 billion at March 31, 2008, up from $6.8 billion at March 31, 2007, but down from $7.1 billion at Dec. 31, 2007.
Core deposits increased to $5.1 billion at March 31, 2008, up 3% from March 31, 2007. Non-interest-bearing deposits decreased to $336 million at March 31, 2008, down 9% from March 31, 2007.
In light of high-rate deposit campaigns by numerous institutions in the footprint, BankUnited allowed the attrition of high-cost single-service customers during the March quarter. As rates moderated at the end of the quarter, the company reentered the market and raised deposits at more reasonable rates. As of April 30, 2008, BankUnited had total deposits of $7.6 billion.
Loan Balances
The total loan portfolio was $12.5 billion at March 31, 2008, compared to $12.6 billion at Dec. 31, 2007, and $11.8 billion at March 31, 2007.
Commercial and commercial real estate loan balances increased to $1.3 billion at March 31, 2008, up 2.3% from Dec. 31, 2007, and up 9% from March 31, 2007.
Consumer loan balances, which include specialty consumer mortgage loans originated through branch offices, increased to $1.2 billion at March 31, 2008, up 12% from March 31, 2007.
Residential loan balances were $9.8 billion at March 31, 2008, compared to $9.9 billion at Dec. 31, 2007, and $9.4 billion at March 31, 2007.
Residential mortgage loan originations, which exclude specialty consumer mortgage loans originated through branch offices, were $471 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, down 46% from the quarter ended March 31, 2007.
In late January 2008, the company announced that it had closed four of its nine wholesale residential lending offices and would be transitioning to a retail commercial bank. Reflected in the second fiscal quarter of 2008 balances are loans that were in company's pipeline prior to that announcement.
Approximately 69% of residential production for the quarter consisted of products which met the agency guidelines for sale to government-sponsored enterprises (GSEs). The company anticipates that the percentage of GSE production will be higher in the future due to the aforementioned reductions in the wholesale channel and impending authorization as an FHA lender. BankUnited has discontinued the production of option-ARM loans except for private banking customers.
Non-Interest Income
Total non-interest income for the quarter was a loss of $18.2 million, compared to income of $10.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. The loss is primarily due to writedowns of $16.6 million pre-tax, or $.30 per diluted share, on several mortgage-backed securities and $8.9 million pre-tax, or $.17 per diluted share, on other investment securities held in the company's investment portfolio. The total pre-tax impairment is $25.5 million.
Fee income, which includes loan fees, deposit fees and other fees (excluding loan-servicing fees), was $3.8 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2008, up 10.6% from the second quarter of fiscal 2007.
A significant increase in referrals led to growth in revenue from BankUnited Financial Services (BUFS). Revenue from insurance and investments sales increased to $2.0 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2008, a 54% increase from $1.3 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2007.
Gain on sale of assets, including loans and securities, totaled $2.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, compared to $2.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007.
BankUnited sold $279 million of conforming agency residential mortgage loans during the quarter ended March 31, 2008, for a gain of $2.1 million, compared to sales of $360 million of residential mortgage loans for a gain of $3.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007.
BankUnited's portfolio of residential loans serviced for others was $2.1 billion at March 31, 2008, compared to $1.5 billion at March 31, 2007. Amortization exceeded servicing fees for a loss of $305,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 2008, compared to servicing fee income of $971,000 for the second quarter of fiscal 2007. During the second quarter of fiscal 2008, BankUnited recorded an impairment charge of $624,000 based on valuations of the servicing portfolio by independent third parties.
Additionally, during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2008, BankUnited transferred $12.7 million of loans which the company had the ability and intent to hold from loans-held-for-sale to its portfolio of loans to be held to maturity. As a result of the transfer, the company recognized a $2.0 million pre-tax writedown on the loans.
Expenses and Efficiency Ratio
Non-interest expense increased $2.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2008, to $57.2 million, up 4% from $55.0 million for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2007, and up 11% from $51.3 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2007.
Excluding pre-tax charges of $1.2 million related to the restructuring of the residential wholesale lending division, $1.2 million of hedging expenses and $4.3 million of expenses related to loss mitigation and default administration, non-interest expenses decreased $1.1 million to $50.4 million from $51.5 million for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2007.
The efficiency ratio for the quarter was 106.73%, compared to 55.5% for the same quarter last year.
Capital Ratios and Book Value
BankUnited FSB continues to maintain a strong capital position in excess of regulatory requirements. Core and risk-based capital ratios were 7.8% and 14.6%, respectively, at March 31, 2008.
Book value per common share was $19.63 as of March 31, 2008, down from $21.84 at March 31, 2007.
Dividends on Class A Common Stock
During the second fiscal quarter, BankUnited's board of directors declared and paid its thirteenth consecutive quarterly cash dividend of one-half cent ($0.005) per share of its Class A Common Stock. Payment of future dividends is subject to the determination of the board of directors in its sole discretion.
Future Plans
Camner added, "As are many financial institutions, we are exploring capital-raising alternatives. Our increased reserves, a broad deposit base, our strong capital position and continuing implementation of our strategic plan should give us the tools to successfully work through this challenging cycle."
