Hancock Reports Second Quarter 2015 Financial Results

GULFPORT, Miss., July 23, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hancock Holding Company (Nasdaq: HBHC) today announced its financial results for the second quarter of 2015.  Operating income for the second quarter of 2015 was $40.6 million, or $.51 per diluted common share, compared to $44.7 million, or $.55, in the first quarter of 2015.  Operating income was $49.6 million, or $.59, in the second quarter of 2014.  We define our operating income as net income excluding tax-effected securities transactions gains or losses and nonoperating expense items.  Nonoperating expenses totaled $8.9 million (pre-tax) and $7.3 million (pre-tax), in the second and first quarters of 2015, respectively, and $12.1 million (pre-tax) in the second quarter of 2014.  Management believes that operating income is one useful measure of our financial performance that helps investors compare the company’s fundamental operational performance from period to period.  The financial tables include a reconciliation of net income to operating income. 

Net income for the second quarter of 2015 was $34.8 million, or $.44 per diluted common share, compared to $40.2 million, or $.49 in the first quarter of 2015 and $40.0 million, or $.48, in the second quarter of 2014.

“The second quarter operating results reflect efforts over the last several quarters at growing earning assets and core revenue,” said John M. Hairston, President and CEO.  “Organic balance sheet growth, increases in both net interest income and fees (excluding the impact of purchase accounting items), continued expense management discipline, solid capital levels and strong credit quality, despite the impact of today’s energy cycle, all reflect the improved quality of our earnings.  We remain focused on continuing these efforts, and I look forward to reporting additional progress in future quarters.”

Highlights of the company’s second quarter of 2015 results:

• An approximate $7.5 million, or $.06 per share, decline in linked-quarter net purchase accounting income negatively impacted both operating and net results
• Earnings increased $0.8 million, or 2% linked-quarter (excluding the tax-effected impact of net purchase accounting items and nonoperating items)
• E.P.S. (excluding the tax-effected impact of net purchase accounting items and nonoperating items) increased 4% linked-quarter
• Loans increased $420 million, or 12% linked-quarter annualized (LQA), funded by an increase in deposits of $441 million, or 10% LQA
• Total assets of $21.5 billion; up $814 million or 4% from March 31, 2015
• Fee income (excluding accretion in indemnification asset) up almost $5 million or 8% from the first quarter of 2015
• Loan loss provision reflects additional build for the energy portfolio, including the impact of the shared national credit (SNC) review, offset by improvements in other loan portfolio measures
• NIM of 3.30% reflects the expected drop in accretion income linked-quarter, the full quarter impact of the subordinated debt issuance in March 2015 and a drop in the overall yield of the securities portfolio
• Nonoperating expenses totaled approximately $9 million, pre-tax

             Over the past several quarters we have disclosed our focus on strategic initiatives that are designed to replace declining levels of purchase accounting income from acquisitions with improvement in core income, which the company defines as operating income excluding tax-effected purchase accounting adjustments.  As of this quarter, the impact to the company’s bottom line from net purchase accounting items has substantially diminished, and core results are now equal to operating results.

Loans

Total loans at June 30, 2015 were $14.3 billion, up $420 million from March 31, 2015.  Net loan growth during the quarter was across many markets within the footprint, with additional growth in indirect, mortgage and specialty finance. 

At June 30, 2015, loans in the energy segment totaled $1.67 billion, or 12% of total loans.  The energy portfolio declined approximately $5 million linked-quarter and is comprised of credits to both the E&P industry and support industries.  Additional details of the energy portfolio are included in the presentation slides posted on our Investor Relations website.  

Average loans totaled $14.1 billion for the second quarter of 2015, up $270 million, or 2%, linked-quarter. 

Deposits

Total deposits at June 30, 2015 were $17.3 billion, up $441 million, or 3%, from March 31, 2015.  Average deposits for the second quarter of 2015 were $16.9 billion, up $377 million, or 2%, linked-quarter.

Noninterest-bearing demand deposits (DDAs) totaled $6.2 billion at June 30, 2015, virtually unchanged from March 31, 2015.  DDAs comprised 36% of total period-end deposits at June 30, 2015. 

Interest-bearing transaction and savings deposits totaled $7.0 billion at the end of the second quarter of 2015, up $418 million, or 6%, from March 31, 2015. Time deposits of $2.2 billion decreased $90 million, or 4%, while interest-bearing public fund deposits increased $134 million, or 7%, to $2.0 billion at June 30, 2015. 

Asset Quality

Nonperforming assets (NPAs) totaled $165 million at June 30, 2015, up $24 million from March 31, 2015.  During the second quarter of 2015, total nonperforming loans increased approximately $28 million while foreclosed and surplus real estate (ORE) and other foreclosed assets decreased approximately $4 million.  The net increase in nonperforming loans was mainly related to one energy loan (nondrilling support) which was downgraded during the quarter.  Nonperforming assets as a percent of total loans, ORE and other foreclosed assets was 1.15% at June 30, 2015, up 14 bps from March 31, 2015. 

The total allowance for loan losses was $131 million at June 30, 2015, up $2.7 million from March 31, 2015.  The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to period-end loans was 0.91% at June 30, 2015, virtually unchanged from March 31, 2015.  The allowance maintained on the non-FDIC acquired portion of the loan portfolio increased $6.3 million linked-quarter, totaling $107 million, and the impaired reserve on the FDIC acquired loan portfolio declined $3.6 million linked-quarter.

Pricing pressures on oil continued during the second quarter and led to additional downward pressure on risk ratings.  Based on those changes, plus updates to the qualitative factors related to energy, the reserve for the energy portfolio increased $10.6 million linked-quarter.  Management believes that if further risk rating downgrades occur they could lead to additional loan loss provisions but not translate to significant losses.  The impact and severity of risk rating migration, associated provision and net charge-offs will depend on overall oil price reduction and the duration of the cycle.  Additional details of the energy portfolio are included in the presentation slides posted on our Investor Relations website.  

Net charge-offs from the non-FDIC acquired loan portfolio were $1.2 million, or 0.03% of average total loans on an annualized basis in the second quarter of 2015, down from $3.7 million, or 0.11% of average total loans in the first quarter of 2015. 

During the second quarter of 2015, Hancock recorded a total provision for loan losses of $6.6 million, up $0.5 million from the first quarter of 2015. 

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income (TE) for the second quarter of 2015 was $154.9 million, down $6.2 million from the first quarter of 2015.  During the second quarter, net interest income from purchase accounting adjustments (PAAs) declined $7.6 million compared to the first quarter of 2015.  Excluding the impact from purchase accounting items, core net interest income increased $1.4 million linked-quarter.  Average earning assets were $18.8 billion for the second quarter of 2015, up $465 million, or 3%, from the first quarter of 2015. 

The reported net interest margin (TE) was 3.30% for the second quarter of 2015, down 25 bps from the first quarter of 2015.  Approximately 18 bps of the decline was related to the decrease in purchase accounting adjustments noted above.  The core net interest margin (reported net interest income (TE) excluding total net purchase accounting adjustments, annualized, as a percent of average earning assets) declined 7 bps to 3.14% during the second quarter of 2015.  Declines in the core loan yield (-3 bps) and the securities portfolio yield (-13 bps) were the main drivers of the margin compression.  A full quarter’s impact from interest on the issuance of $150 million in holding company subordinated debt in early March led to a 4 bps increase in the total cost of funds.        Noninterest Income

Noninterest income, including securities transactions, totaled $60.9 million for the second quarter of 2015, up $4.3 million, or 8%, from the first quarter of 2015.  Also included in the total is a reduction of $1.3 million related to the amortization of the FDIC indemnification asset, compared to a reduction of $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2015.  Excluding the impact of this item and securities transactions, core noninterest income totaled $62.1 million, up $4.7 million linked-quarter. 

Service charges on deposits totaled $17.9 million for the second quarter of 2015, up $0.6 million, or 3%, from the first quarter of 2015.  Bank card and ATM fees totaled $11.9 million, up $0.7 million, or 6%, from the first quarter of 2015. 

Trust fees totaled $11.8 million, up $0.6 million, or 5%, linked-quarter.  The increase was due, in part, to seasonal tax prep fees.   Investment and annuity income and insurance fees totaled $7.4 million, up $0.6 million, or 9%, linked-quarter.   

Fees from secondary mortgage operations totaled $3.6 million for the second quarter of 2015, up $1 million, or 36%, linked-quarter.  During the second quarter, a greater portion of loan production was sold in the secondary market compared to last quarter.  Management expects this trend to continue through 2015. 

Other noninterest income totaled $9.5 million, up $1.3 million, or 16%, from the first quarter of 2015. 

Noninterest Expense & Taxes

Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2015 totaled $158.9 million and included $8.9 million of nonoperating expenses.  Excluding these costs, operating expenses totaled $150.0 million in the second quarter of 2015, up $3.8 million, or 3%, linked-quarter.  (The details of the changes in the noninterest expense categories noted below exclude the impact of nonoperating items.)

Total personnel expense was $82.5 million in the second quarter of 2015, up $2.4 million, or 3%, from the first quarter of 2015.  The increase reflects additional incentive pay in the second quarter, partially offset by a seasonal decrease in benefits.

Occupancy and equipment expense totaled $15.8 million in the second quarter of 2015, up $0.7 million, or 5%, from the first quarter of 2015. 

ORE expense totaled $0.5 million for the second quarter of 2015, virtually unchanged linked-quarter. 

Other operating expense totaled $45.0 million in the second quarter of 2015, up $0.7 million, or 2%, from the first quarter of 2015. 

The effective income tax rate for the second quarter 2015 was 26%, virtually unchanged from the first quarter of 2015.  Management expects the effective income tax rate to approximate 25-27% in 2015.  The effective income tax rate continues to be less than the statutory rate of 35% due primarily to tax-exempt income and tax credits. 

Capital

Common shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2015 totaled $2.4 billion.  The tangible common equity (TCE) ratio was 8.12%, down 28 bps from March 31, 2015, mainly reflecting the growth in total assets during the quarter. 

Additional capital ratios are included in the financial tables.       Conference Call and Slide Presentation
