Banner Corporation Reports Increased Loan Demand, Strong Deposit Growth and Net Income of $54.4 Million, or $1.56 Per Diluted Share, for Second Quarter 2021; Declares Quarterly Cash Dividend of $0.41
WALLA WALLA, Wash., July 21, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Banner Corporation (NASDAQ GSM: BANR) (“Banner”), the parent company of Banner Bank, today reported net income of $54.4 million, or $1.56 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021, a 16% increase compared to $46.9 million, or $1.33 per diluted share, for the preceding quarter and a 131% increase compared to $23.5 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2020. Banner’s second quarter 2021 results include $10.3 million in recapture of provision for credit losses, compared to $28.6 million in provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 2020. The second quarter 2020 provision for credit losses was primarily the result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. In the first six months of 2021, net income was $101.2 million, or $2.88 per diluted share, compared to net income of $40.4 million, or $1.14 per diluted share for the same period a year earlier. Banner’s first six months of 2021 results include $19.5 million in recapture of provision for credit losses, compared to $52.1 million in provision for credit losses in the first six months of 2020.
Banner announced that its Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.41 per share. The dividend will be payable August 13, 2021, to common shareholders of record on August 3, 2021.
“Banner’s second quarter 2021 performance continues to demonstrate the success of our super community bank model, even with the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Mark Grescovich, President and CEO. “We benefited from continued core deposit growth and an acceleration of PPP loan fee income as a result of SBA PPP loan forgiveness. The unprecedented level of market liquidity along with proceeds from new PPP loan originations, and our continued focus on building client relationships contributed to our core deposits increasing 16% compared to June 30, 2020.”
“Due to the ongoing improvement in forecasted economic conditions in our markets, coupled with continued reductions in our adversely classified loans, we recorded a $10.3 million recapture to our provision for credit losses during the current quarter. This compares to a $9.3 million recapture to our provision for credit losses during the preceding quarter and a $28.6 million provision for credit losses in the second quarter a year ago. Our allowance for credit losses - loans remains strong at 1.53% of total loans and 481% of non-performing loans at June 30, 2021, compared to 1.57% of total loans and 426% of non-performing loans at March 31, 2021,” said Grescovich. “Banner has provided PPP loans totaling nearly $1.61 billion to 13,922 businesses as of June 30, 2021, and as of quarter end, we had received SBA forgiveness for 6,707 PPP loans totaling $822.3 million. Our essential onsite employees, such as those working in our branches, continue to serve clients in person. In addition, as a result of the accelerated distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine over the past several months and the progress made toward fully reopening businesses in the states we serve, we began to normalize our operations by returning additional groups of employees back to Bank worksites in July 2021.”
At June 30, 2021, Banner Corporation had $16.18 billion in assets, $9.51 billion in net loans and $13.64 billion in deposits. Banner operates 155 branch offices, including branches located in eight of the top 20 largest western Metropolitan Statistical Areas by population.

Income Statement Review
Net interest income, before the recapture of provision for credit losses, was $127.6 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared to $117.7 million in the preceding quarter and $119.6 million in the second quarter a year ago.
Banner’s net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis was 3.52% for the second quarter of 2021, an eight basis-point increase compared to 3.44% in the preceding quarter and a 35 basis-point decrease compared to 3.87% in the second quarter a year ago.
“Interest income was higher, primarily as a result of the decline in low yielding PPP loans and a corresponding acceleration of deferred loan fee income due to loan repayments from SBA loan forgiveness, which positively affected our net interest margin during the quarter. Net interest margin was also impacted by the growth in core deposit balances, resulting in our deploying excess liquidity into low yielding short term investments,” said Grescovich. “Additionally, the on-going low interest rate environment continues to put downward pressure on loan yields.” Acquisition accounting adjustments added three basis points to the net interest margin in the current quarter, five basis points in the preceding quarter and seven basis points in the second quarter a year ago. The total purchase discount for acquired loans was $12.5 million at June 30, 2021, compared to $13.9 million at March 31, 2021, and $20.2 million at June 30, 2020. In the first six months of 2021, Banner’s net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis was 3.48% compared to 4.05% in the first six months of 2020.
Average interest-earning asset yields increased four basis points to 3.68% in the second quarter compared to 3.64% for the preceding quarter and decreased 48 basis points compared to 4.16% in the second quarter a year ago. Average loan yields increased 27 basis points to 4.70% compared to 4.43% in the preceding quarter and increased 13 basis points compared to 4.57% in the second quarter a year ago. The increase in average loan yields during the current quarter compared to the preceding quarter was primarily the result of the decline in low yielding SBA PPP loans due to loan repayments from SBA loan forgiveness during the quarter, partially offset by lower rates on new originations and adjustable-rate loans resetting to lower current market rates. Loan discount accretion added five basis points to average loan yields in the second quarter of 2021, seven basis points in the preceding quarter and eight basis points in the second quarter a year ago. Deposit costs were 0.09% in the second quarter of 2021, a two basis-point decrease compared to the preceding quarter and a 14 basis-point decrease compared to the second quarter a year ago. The year-over-year decrease in quarterly deposit costs was primarily the result of decreases in market interest rates during 2020. The total cost of funds was 0.17% during the second quarter of 2021, a four basis-point decrease compared to the preceding quarter and a 14 basis-point decrease compared to the second quarter a year ago.
Banner recorded a $10.3 million recapture of provision for credit losses in the current quarter (comprised of an $8.1 million recapture credit losses - loans and a $2.2 million recapture unfunded loan commitments). This recapture compares to a $9.3 million recapture of provision for credit losses in the prior quarter (comprised of an $8.0 million recapture credit losses - loans and $1.2 million recapture unfunded loan commitments) and a $28.6 million provision for credit losses in the second quarter a year ago (comprised of a $29.5 million provision for credit losses - loans and a $905,000 recapture unfunded loan commitments). The recapture of provision for credit losses for the current quarter primarily reflects improvement in forecasted economic indicators and a decrease in adversely classified loans since the preceding quarter end, while the recapture of the provision for credit losses recorded in the preceding quarter primarily reflected a decrease in loan balances, excluding PPP loans, as well as improvement in the forecasted economic indicators. The provision for credit losses recorded in the second quarter a year ago primarily reflected expected lifetime credit losses based upon the economic conditions and the potential effects from forecasted deterioration of economic metrics due to the COVID-19 pandemic based on the outlook as of June 30, 2020.
Total non-interest income was $22.3 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared to $24.3 million in the preceding quarter and $27.7 million in the second quarter a year ago. Deposit fees and other service charges were $9.8 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared to $8.9 million in the preceding quarter and $7.5 million in the second quarter a year ago. The increase in deposit fees and other service charges from the second quarter a year ago is primarily a result of increased transaction deposit account activity. Mortgage banking revenues, including gains on one- to four-family and multifamily loan sales and loan servicing fees, decreased to $7.5 million in the second quarter, compared to $11.4 million in the preceding quarter and $14.1 million in the second quarter of 2020. The lower mortgage banking revenue quarter-over-quarter primarily reflects a decrease in the gain on sale margin on one- to four-family held-for-sale loans and a reduction in the volume of one- to four-family loans sold reflecting a decrease in refinance activity. The decrease compared to the second quarter of 2020 was primarily due to a decrease in the gain on sale margin on one- to four-family held-for-sale loans, partially offset by higher gains on the sale of multifamily held-for-sale loans. Home purchase activity accounted for 66% of one- to four-family mortgage loan originations in the second quarter of 2021, compared to 54% in the prior quarter and 42% in the second quarter of 2020. In the first six months of 2021, total non-interest income decreased 1% to $46.6 million, compared to $46.9 million in the first six months of 2020.
Banner’s second quarter 2021 results included a $58,000 net gain for fair value adjustments as a result of changes in the valuation of financial instruments carried at fair value, principally comprised of certain investment securities held for trading, and a $77,000 net gain on the sale of securities. In the preceding quarter, results included a $59,000 net gain for fair value adjustments and a $485,000 net gain on the sale of securities. In the second quarter a year ago, results included a $2.2 million net gain for fair value adjustments and a $93,000 net gain on the sale of securities.
Total revenue increased 6% to $149.9 million for the second quarter of 2021, compared to $141.9 million in the preceding quarter, and increased 2% compared to $147.3 million in the second quarter a year ago. Year-to-date, total revenues increased 2% to $291.8 million compared to $285.7 million for the same period one year earlier. Adjusted revenue* (the total of net interest income and total non-interest income excluding the net gain or loss on the sale of securities and the net change in valuation of financial instruments) was $149.8 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared to $141.4 million in the preceding quarter and $145.0 million in the second quarter of 2020. In the first six months of the year, adjusted revenue* was $291.1 million, compared to $287.9 million in the first six months of 2020.
Total non-interest expense was $92.6 million in the second quarter of 2021, compared to $93.5 million in the preceding quarter and $90.5 million in the second quarter of 2020. The decrease in non-interest expense for the current quarter compared to the prior quarter primarily reflects a $2.9 million decrease in salary and employee benefits expense as the prior quarter included $1.3 million of severance expense related to a reduction in staffing and a $1.2 million adjustment recorded to increase the liability related to deferred compensation plans. These decreases in salary and employee benefits expense for the current quarter were partially offset by a $1.0 million increase in professional and legal expenses. The year-over-year quarterly increase in non-interest expense also reflects decreased capitalized loan origination costs, primarily related to the decline in the origination of PPP loans during the current quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago as well as increases in professional and legal expenses and miscellaneous non-interest expense. The year-over-year quarterly increases in non-interest expense were partially offset by decreases in salary and employee benefits and COVID-19 expenses. Merger and acquisition-related expenses were $79,000 for the second quarter of 2021, compared to $571,000 for the preceding quarter and $336,000 in the second quarter a year ago. COVID-19 expenses were $117,000 for the second quarter of 2021, compared to $148,000 for the preceding quarter and $2.2 million in the second quarter a year ago. Year-to-date, total non-interest expense was $186.2 million, compared to $184.0 million in the same period a year earlier. Banner’s efficiency ratio was 61.79% for the current quarter, compared to 65.90% in the preceding quarter and 61.47% in the year ago quarter. Banner’s adjusted efficiency ratio* was 59.77% for the current quarter, compared to 63.85% in the preceding quarter and 58.58% in the year ago quarter.
For the second quarter of 2021, Banner had $13.1 million in state and federal income tax expense for an effective tax rate of 19.5%, reflecting the benefits from tax exempt income. Banner’s statutory income tax rate is 23.7%, representing a blend of the statutory federal income tax rate of 21.0% and apportioned effects of the state income tax rates.
Balance Sheet Review
Total assets increased to $16.18 billion at June 30, 2021, compared to $16.12 billion at March 31, 2021, and increased 12% when compared to $14.41 billion at June 30, 2020. The total of securities and interest-bearing deposits held at other banks was $5.19 billion at June 30, 2021, compared to $4.81 billion at March 31, 2021 and $2.30 billion at June 30, 2020. The average effective duration of Banner's securities portfolio was approximately 4.6 years at June 30, 2021, compared to 4.0 years at June 30, 2020.
Net loans receivable decreased 3% to $9.51 billion at June 30, 2021, compared to $9.79 billion at March 31, 2021, and decreased 6% when compared to $10.13 billion at June 30, 2020. The decrease in net loans compared to the prior quarter primarily reflects the forgiveness of SBA PPP loans, partially offset by increases in commercial real estate, multifamily real estate and construction loans. Commercial real estate and multifamily real estate loans increased 2% to $4.14 billion at June 30, 2021, compared to $4.05 billion at March 31, 2021, and increased 1% compared to $4.11 billion a year ago. Commercial business loans decreased 14% to $2.68 billion at June 30, 2021 compared to $3.09 billion at March 31, 2021, and decreased 15% compared to $3.15 billion a year ago, primarily due to PPP loans forgiven. Agricultural business loans increased to $265.4 million at June 30, 2021, compared to $262.4 million three months earlier and decreased from $328.1 million a year ago. Total construction, land and land development loans were $1.37 billion at June 30, 2021, a 4% increase from $1.31 billion at March 31, 2021, and an 11% increase compared to $1.24 billion a year earlier. Consumer loans decreased to $560.7 million at June 30, 2021, compared to $570.7 million at March 31, 2021, and $642.4 million a year ago. One- to four-family loans decreased to $637.7 million at June 30, 2021, primarily reflecting held for investment loans being refinanced and sold as held for sale loans, compared to $655.6 million at March 31, 2021, and $817.8 million a year ago.
Loans held for sale were $71.7 million at June 30, 2021, compared to $135.3 million at March 31, 2021, and $258.7 million at June 30, 2020. The volume of one- to four- family residential mortgage loans sold was $266.7 million in the current quarter, compared to $300.3 million in the preceding quarter and $292.4 million in the second quarter a year ago. During the second quarter of 2021, Banner sold $83.9 million in multifamily loans, compared to $107.7 million in the preceding quarter and $3.1 million in the second quarter a year ago.
Total deposits increased 1% to $13.64 billion at June 30, 2021, compared to $13.55 billion at March 31, 2021, and increased 13% when compared to $12.02 billion a year ago. The year-over-year increase in total deposits was due primarily to SBA PPP loan funds deposited into client accounts and an increase in general client liquidity due to reduced business investment and consumer spending during the COVID-19 pandemic. Non-interest-bearing account balances increased 2% to $6.09 billion at June 30, 2021, compared to $5.99 billion at March 31, 2021, and increased 15% compared to $5.28 billion a year ago. Core deposits increased 1% to 94% of total deposits at June 30, 2021, compared to 93% of total deposits at March 31, 2021 and increased 16% compared to a year ago. Certificates of deposit decreased to $873.0 million at June 30, 2021, compared to $907.0 million at March 31, 2021, and decreased 16% compared to $1.04 billion a year earlier. Banner had no brokered deposits at June 30, 2021 or March 31, 2021, compared to $119.4 million a year ago. FHLB borrowings totaled $100.0 million at both June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, compared to $150.0 million a year ago.
At June 30, 2021, total common shareholders’ equity was $1.67 billion, or 10.32% of assets, compared to $1.62 billion or 10.04% of assets at March 31, 2021, and $1.63 billion or 11.28% of assets a year ago. At June 30, 2021, tangible common shareholders’ equity*, which excludes goodwill and other intangible assets, net, was $1.28 billion, or 8.09% of tangible assets*, compared to $1.23 billion, or 7.80% of tangible assets, at March 31, 2021, and $1.23 billion, or 8.76% of tangible assets, a year ago. Banner’s tangible book value per share* increased to $36.99 at June 30, 2021, compared to $34.89 per share a year ago.
Banner and its subsidiary bank continue to maintain capital levels in excess of the requirements to be categorized as “well-capitalized.” At June 30, 2021, Banner's common equity Tier 1 capital ratio was 11.21%, its Tier 1 leverage capital to average assets ratio was 8.86%, and its total capital to risk-weighted assets ratio was 14.62%.
Credit Quality
The allowance for credit losses - loans was $148.0 million at June 30, 2021, or 1.53% of total loans receivable outstanding and 481% of non-performing loans, compared to $156.1 million at March 31, 2021, or 1.57% of total loans receivable outstanding and 426% of non-performing loans, and $156.4 million at June 30, 2020, or 1.52% of total loans receivable outstanding and 418% of non-performing loans. In addition to the allowance for credit losses - loans, Banner maintains an allowance for credit losses - unfunded loan commitments, which was $9.9 million at June 30, 2021, compared to $12.1 million at March 31, 2021 and $10.6 million at June 30, 2020. Net loan recoveries totaled $55,000 in the second quarter of 2021, compared to net loan charge-offs of $3.2 million in the preceding quarter and $3.7 million of net loan charge-offs in the second quarter a year ago. Banner recorded a $10.3 million recapture of provision for credit losses in the current quarter, compared to a $9.3 million recapture of provision for credit losses in the prior quarter and a $28.6 million provision for loan losses in the year ago quarter. The recapture of provision for credit losses for the current quarter primarily reflects an improvement in the forecasted economic indicators and a decrease in adversely classified loans, while the recapture of the provision for credit losses recorded in the preceding quarter primarily reflected the decrease in loan balances, excluding the increase in PPP loans, as well as improvement in the forecasted economic indicators. The provision for credit losses recorded in the second quarter a year ago reflected deterioration as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic in the economic indicators utilized to forecast credit losses. Non-performing loans were $30.8 million at June 30, 2021, compared to $36.6 million at March 31, 2021, and $37.4 million a year ago. Real estate owned and other repossessed assets were $780,000 at June 30, 2021, compared to $377,000 at March 31, 2021, and $2.4 million a year ago.
In accordance with acquisition accounting, loans acquired from acquisitions were recorded at their estimated fair value, which resulted in a net purchase discount to the loans’ contractual amounts, a portion of which reflects a discount for possible credit losses. Credit discounts were included in the determination of fair value, and as a result, no allowance for credit losses was recorded for loans acquired from acquisitions prior to January 1, 2020. At June 30, 2021, the total purchase discount for acquired loans was $12.5 million.
Banner’s total substandard loans were $272.8 million at June 30, 2021, compared to $311.6 million at March 31, 2021, and $359.8 million a year ago. The quarter over quarter decrease reflects the payoff of substandard loans as well as risk rating upgrades as certain industries impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic have begun to stabilize.
Banner’s total non-performing assets were $31.5 million, or 0.19% of total assets, at June 30, 2021, compared to $37.0 million, or 0.23% of total assets, at March 31, 2021, and $39.9 million, or 0.28% of total assets, a year ago.
At June 30, 2021, Banner had 71 loans totaling $28.5 million remaining on loan payment deferral due to COVID-19 including 62 mortgage loans totaling $20.2 million operating under forbearance agreements. Since these loans were performing loans that were current on their payments prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, these modifications are not considered to be troubled debt restructurings pursuant to applicable accounting and regulatory guidance.

Other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated or projected include, but are not limited to, the following: (1) the credit risks of lending activities, including changes in the level and direction of loan delinquencies and write-offs and changes in estimates of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses, which could necessitate additional provisions for credit losses, resulting both from loans originated and loans acquired from other financial institutions; (2) results of examinations by regulatory authorities, including the possibility that any such regulatory authority may, among other things, require increases in the allowance for credit losses or writing down of assets or impose restrictions or penalties with respect to Banner’s activities; (3) competitive pressures among depository institutions; (4) interest rate movements and their impact on client behavior and net interest margin; (5) the impact of repricing and competitors’ pricing initiatives on loan and deposit products; (6) fluctuations in real estate values; (7) the ability to adapt successfully to technological changes to meet clients’ needs and developments in the market place; (8) the ability to access cost-effective funding; (9) changes in financial markets; (10) changes in economic conditions in general and in Washington, Idaho, Oregon and California in particular; (11) the costs, effects and outcomes of litigation; (12) legislation or regulatory changes, including but not limited to the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act and regulations adopted thereunder, changes in regulatory capital requirements pursuant to the implementation of the Basel III capital standards, other governmental initiatives affecting the financial services industry and changes in federal and/or state tax laws or interpretations thereof by taxing authorities; (13) changes in accounting principles, policies or guidelines; (14) future acquisitions by Banner of other depository institutions or lines of business; (15) future goodwill impairment due to changes in Banner’s business, changes in market conditions, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic or other factors; and (16) other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory, and technological factors affecting our operations, pricing, products and services; and other risks detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission including our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Annual Reports on Form 10-K.

| * Non-GAAP Financial Measures | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
| In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management has presented these non-GAAP financial measures in this earnings release because it believes that they provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in Banner’s core operations reflected in the current quarter’s results and facilitate the comparison of our performance with the performance of our peers. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for any analysis based on GAAP. Where applicable, comparable earnings information using GAAP financial measures is also presented. Because not all companies use the same calculations, our presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures as calculated by other companies. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures, see the tables below: | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
