and Year Ended December 31, 2017
Contact: Richard J. Gavegnano, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer
(978) 977-2211
Boston, Massachusetts (January 23, 2018): Meridian Bancorp, Inc. (the Company or Meridian) (NASDAQ: EBSB), the holding company for East Boston Savings Bank (the Bank), announced net income of $9.0 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, down from $13.3 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and $11.3 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2016. For the year ended December 31, 2017, net income was $42.9 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, up from $34.2 million, or $0.65 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2016. Net income for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2017 reflects a charge of approximately $7.0 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, related to enactment of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the Tax Act) on December 22, 2017. Non-recurring merger and acquisition expenses totaling $1.8 million for the quarter and $2.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 related to the Companys acquisition of Meetinghouse Bancorp, Inc. and Meetinghouse Bank (Meetinghouse) completed on December 29, 2017 are also reflected in the Companys results. The Companys return on average assets was 0.70% for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, down from 1.10% for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and 1.05% for the quarter ended December 31, 2016. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Companys return on average assets was 0.89%, up from 0.87% for the year ended December 31, 2016. The Companys return on average equity was 5.56% for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, down from 8.40% for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and 7.51% for the quarter ended December 31, 2016. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Companys return on average equity was 6.82%, up from 5.77% for the year ended December 31, 2016.
Richard J. Gavegnano, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, Meridian earned record net income of $42.9 million for the year 2017, up $8.8 million, or 26%, from the prior record set in 2016, even after the $7.0 million tax charge resulting from the Tax Act and $2.1 million of acquisition expenses. Without these non-recurring expenses, our net income for 2017 would have been $51 million, up 50% from 2016. The strong organic loan and deposit growth that continues to drive our earnings to new records also increased total assets to $5.3 billion during the year. The Meetinghouse acquisition added $120 million in assets, including $76 million in loans, $94 million in deposits and two branches in the Boston neighborhoods of Dorchester and Roslindale that provide us with a platform for expansion of our market share in the surrounding areas.
Mr. Gavegnano added, A major element of our enhanced commitments to our employees, infrastructure investment and charitable giving as previously announced is to expand our core banking franchise to areas not being served by a community bank. We are moving forward with plans to open four new branches in Bostons Cleveland Circle and Brigham Circle neighborhoods and north of Boston in Lynnfield and West Peabody in 2018 as we continue to evaluate additional branch opportunities within our metropolitan Boston footprint.
The Companys net interest income was $39.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, up $1.3 million or 3.4%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and $5.9 million, or 17.7%, from the quarter ended December 31, 2016. The interest rate spread and net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis were 2.97% and 3.20%, respectively, for the quarter ended December 31, 2017 compared to 3.08% and 3.30%, respectively, for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and 3.09% and 3.31%, respectively, for the quarter ended December 31, 2016. For the year ended December 31, 2017, net interest income increased $23.6 million, or 19.3%, to $146.2 million from the year ended December 31, 2016. The net interest rate spread and net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis were 3.01% and 3.23%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to 3.13% and 3.34%, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2016 The increases in net interest income were primarily due to loan growth, partially offset by increases in the average balances of total deposits and borrowings and the cost of funds for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2017 compared to the respective prior periods.
Total interest and dividend income increased to $50.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, up $2.9 million, or 6.1%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and $9.6 million, or 23.3%, from the quarter ended December 31, 2016, primarily due to growth in the Companys average loan balances to $4.556 billion and increases in the yield on loans, to 4.39% on a tax-equivalent
basis, of eight basis points from the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and five basis points from the quarter ended December 31, 2016. The Companys yield on interest-earning assets on a tax-equivalent basis was 4.11% for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, down two basis points from the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and up six basis points from the quarter ended December 31, 2016. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Companys total interest and dividend income increased $35.4 million, or 23.7%, to $185.1 million from the year ended December 31, 2016 primarily due to growth in the average loan balances of $791.7 million, or 22.6%, to $4.287 billion. The Companys yield on interest-earning assets on a tax-equivalent basis was 4.06% for the year ended December 31, 2017, up one basis point from the year ended December 31, 2016.
Total interest expense increased to $11.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, up $1.6 million, or 16.4%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and $3.7 million, or 47.4%, from the quarter ended December 31, 2016. Interest expense on deposits increased to $10.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, up $1.6 million, or 18.4%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and $3.1 million, or 45.1%, from the quarter ended December 31, 2016 primarily due to growth in average total deposits to $3.992 billion and increases in the cost of average total deposits to 1.00% from 0.91% for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, and 0.83% for the quarter ended December 31, 2016. Interest expense on borrowings increased to $1.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, up $56,000, or 4.0%, from the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and $576,000, or 66.4%, from the quarter ended December 31, 2016 primarily due to growth in average total borrowings to $486.9 million. The Companys total cost of funds was 1.02% for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, up eight basis points from the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and 17 basis points from the quarter ended December 31, 2016. Total interest expense increased $11.8 million, or 43.4%, to $38.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 from the year ended December 31, 2016. Interest expense on deposits increased $9.9 million, or 40.9%, to $34.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 from the year ended December 31, 2016 due to the growth in average total deposits of $682.5 million, or 22.4%, to $3.732 billion and an increase in the cost of average total deposits of 12 basis points to 0.91%. Interest expense on borrowings increased $1.9 million, or 63.6%, to $4.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 from the year ended December 31, 2016 due to the growth in average total borrowings of $133.6 million, or 48.1%, to $411.2 million and an increase in the cost of average total borrowings of 11 basis points to 1.20%. The Companys cost of funds increased 12 basis points to 0.94% for the year ended December 31, 2017 compared to the year ended December 31, 2016.
Mr. Gavegnano noted, Rising net interest income, the key component of our record earnings pace, continues to be driven by strong organic loan growth. Our loan portfolio, excluding acquired with Meetinghouse, rose $648 million, or 17%, on loan originations of $1.8 billion in 2017. Our net interest income rose 19% in 2017 despite a rising short-term interest rate environment that contributed to the 12 basis point increase in our cost of funds to 0.94% and an 11 basis point decline in our net interest margin to 3.23%.
The Company recognized a reversal of $715,000 in its provision for loan losses for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, compared to provisions of $2.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and $1.3 million from the quarter ended December 31, 2016. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the provision for loan losses was $4.9 million compared to $7.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2016. The allowance for loan losses was $45.2 million or 0.97% of total loans at December 31, 2017, compared to $45.6 million or 1.00% of total loans at September 30, 2017, and $40.1 million or 1.02% of total loans at December 31, 2016. The changes in the provision and the allowance for loan losses were based on managements assessment of loan portfolio growth and composition changes, declines in historical charge-off trends, reduced levels of problem loans and other improving asset quality trends, with reductions in the provision for loan losses for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2017 reflecting improvement in these asset quality factors during the year.
Net recoveries totaled $257,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, or 0.02% of average loans outstanding on an annualized basis compared to net charge-offs of $44,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, and net recoveries of $147,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2016, or 0.02% of average loans on an annualized basis. For the year ended December 31, 2017, net recoveries totaled $177,000, or 0.00% of average loans outstanding compared to net charge-offs of $436,000, or 0.01% of average loans outstanding, for the year ended December 31, 2016.
Non-accrual loans were $8.4 million, or 0.18% of total loans outstanding, at December 31, 2017; down $815,000, or 8.9%, from September 30, 2017; and down $5.1 million, or 37.8%, from December 31, 2016. Non-performing assets were $8.4 million, or 0.16% of total assets, at December 31, 2017, compared to $10.9 million, or 0.21% of total assets, at September 30, 2017, and $13.4 million, or 0.30% of total assets, at December 31, 2016.
Mr. Gavegnano commented, We saw continuing improvement in our asset quality during 2017, as non-performing assets declined to 0.16% of total assets, the lowest level since 2006, with negligible loan charge-off activity. This improvement reflects our ongoing emphasis on maintaining disciplined underwriting, credit monitoring and collection processes.
Non-interest income was $8.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, up from $5.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and up from $5.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2016. Non-interest income increased $3.5 million,
2
or 65.8%, as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2017, primarily due to a $5.2 million increase in gain on sales of securities, net, partially offset by a $1.7 million gain on a life insurance distribution related to a banked-owned life insurance claim recognized during the third quarter of 2017. As compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2016, non-interest income increased $3.1 million, or 55.1%, primarily due to a $3.4 million increase in gain on sales of securities, net. For the year ended December 31, 2017, non-interest income increased $8.9 million, or 62.5%, to $23.1 million from $14.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2016, primarily due to a $6.3 million increase in gain on sale of securities, net, the $1.7 million gain on a life insurance distribution, and a $1.1 million increase in loan fees. The increases in loan fees are primarily due to $1.3 million of loan swap fee income recognized in the second quarter of 2017.
Non-interest expenses were $23.9 million, or 1.85% of average assets for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, compared to $20.8 million, or 1.71% of average assets for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and $19.8 million, or 1.84% of average assets for the quarter ended December 31, 2016. Non-interest expenses increased $4.1 million, or 20.7%, compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2016, due primarily to increases of $1.8 million in merger and acquisition expenses, $1.6 million in salaries and employee benefits, $343,000 in deposit insurance premiums, $260,000 in other general and administrative expenses, and $200,000 in data processing. For the year ended December 31, 2017, non-interest expenses increased $10.5 million, or 13.5%, to $88.0 million from $77.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2016, due to increases of $4.3 million in salaries and employee benefits, $2.1 million in merger and acquisition expenses, $951,000 in deposit insurance premiums, $777,000 in data processing expenses, $724,000 in occupancy and equipment expenses, $704,000 in professional services, $491,000 in other general and administrative expenses, and $436,000 in marketing and advertising expenses. The increases in salaries and employee benefits expenses reflect annual increases in employee compensation and health benefits during the first quarter of 2017 and a 20% bonus enhancement to the Banks Incentive Compensation Plan for 2017. In addition, the increases in salaries and employee benefits, and occupancy and equipment expenses include costs associated with the expansion of our branch and regulatory compliance staff. Professional services increased primarily due to additional costs related to regulatory compliance projects. The Companys efficiency ratio, which excludes non-recurring merger and acquisition expenses, was 52.61% for the quarter ended December 31, 2017 compared to 48.40% for the quarter ended September 30, 2017 and 54.33% for the quarter ended December 31, 2016. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the efficiency ratio was 53.71% compared to 57.95% for the year ended December 31, 2016.
Mr. Gavegnano said, Our efficiency ratio improved to 53.71% in 2017 from 57.95% in 2016, primarily due to the 19% rise in net interest income. Non-interest expenses, without the non-recurring Meetinghouse acquisition expenses of $2.1 million in 2017 that were excluded from the determination of our efficiency ratio, increased 11%. The significant expenses related to the Meetinghouse acquisition and our regulatory compliance infrastructure enhancements are now behind us. As we move forward with prudent staffing and capital commitments related to our planned branch expansion, we believe these investments will ultimately contribute to further improvement in our financial performance.
The Company recorded a provision for income taxes of $15.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2017, reflecting an effective tax rate of 63.7%, compared to $6.7 million, or an effective tax rate of 33.5%, for the quarter ended September 30, 2017, and $6.6 million, or an effective tax rate of 37.0%, for the quarter ended December 31, 2016. For the year ended December 31, 2017, the provision for income taxes was $33.5 million, reflecting an effective tax rate of 43.8%, compared to $17.9 million, or an effective tax rate of 34.3%, for the year ended December 31, 2016. The changes in the income tax provision and effective tax rate were primarily due to the $7.0 million charge related to enactment of the Tax Act that required the Company to revalue its net deferred tax asset. This charge may be subject to adjustment in future periods.
Total assets were $5.299 billion at December 31, 2017, up $213.0 million, or 4.2%, from $5.086 billion at September 30, 2017 and $863.5 million, or 19.5%, from $4.436 billion at December 31, 2016. The growth in assets includes $120.4 million of assets acquired in the Meetinghouse acquisition. Net loans were $4.623 billion at December 31, 2017, up $120.9 million, or 2.7%, from September 30, 2017, and $724.1 million, or 18.6%, from December 31, 2016, including $73.6 million of loans acquired in the Meetinghouse acquisition. Loan originations totaled $452.9 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2017 and $1.763 billion during the year ended December 31, 2017. The net increase in loans for the year ended December 31, 2017 was primarily due to increases of $287.2 million in commercial real estate loans, $216.7 million in multi-family loans, $138.5 million in construction loans, $71.2 million in one- to four-family loans and $10.2 million in commercial and industrial loans. Cash and due from banks was $402.7 million at December 31, 2017, an increase of $166.3 million, or 70.3% from December 31, 2016. Securities available for sale were $38.4 million at December 31, 2017, a decrease of $29.3 million, or 43.3%, from $67.7 million at December 31, 2016.
Total deposits were $4.108 billion at December 31, 2017, an increase of $162.4 million, or 4.1%, from $3.945 billion at September 30, 2017 and an increase of $632.0 million, or 18.2%, from $3.476 billion at December 31, 2016. Contributing to the growth was $93.8 million of deposits acquired in the Meetinghouse acquisition. Core deposits, which exclude certificate of deposits, increased $389.6 million, or 16.6%, during the year ended December 31, 2017 to $2.737 billion, or 66.6% of total deposits. Total borrowings were $513.4 million, up $42.4 million, or 9.0%, from September 30, 2017 and up $190.9 million, or 59.2%, from December 31, 2016.

Total stockholders equity increased $6.0 million, or 0.9%, to $646.4 million at December 31, 2017 from $640.4 million at September 30, 2017, and $39.1 million, or 6.4%, from $607.3 million at December 31, 2016. The increase for the year ended December 31, 2017 was primarily due to net income of $42.9 million, and $6.5 million related to stock-based compensation plans partially offset by $1.7 million in accumulated other comprehensive losses, reflecting a decrease in the fair value of available-for-sale securities, partially offset by dividends of $0.17 per share totaling $8.7 million. Stockholders equity to assets was 12.20% at December 31, 2017, compared to 12.59% at September 30, 2017 and 13.69% at December 31, 2016. Book value per share increased to $11.96 at December 31, 2017 from $11.33 at December 31, 2016.

(1) | Income on debt securities, equity securities and revenue bonds included in commercial real estate loans, as well as resulting yields, interest rate spread and net interest margin, are presented on a tax-equivalent basis. The tax-equivalent adjustments are deducted from tax-equivalent net interest income to agree to amounts reported in the consolidated statements of net income. For the three months ended December 31, 2017, September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, yields on loans before tax-equivalent adjustments were 4.28%, 4.20% and 4.21%, respectively, yields on securities and certificates of deposit before tax-equivalent adjustments were 1.66%, 1.65% and 1.72%, respectively, and yield on total interest-earning assets before tax-equivalent adjustments were 4.00%, 4.01% and 3.92%, respectively. Interest rate spread before tax-equivalent adjustments for the three months ended December 31, 2017, September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was 2.86%, 2.96% and 2.96%, respectively, while net interest margin before tax-equivalent adjustments for the three months ended December 31, 2017, September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016 was 3.09%, 3.18% and 3.18%, respectively. |
(2) | Loans on non-accrual status are included in average balances. |
(3) | Includes Federal Home Loan Bank stock and associated dividends. |
(4) | Interest rate spread represents the difference between the tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. |
(5) | Net interest margin represents net interest income (tax-equivalent basis) divided by average interest-earning assets. |
(6) | Annualized. |

(1) | Income on debt securities, equity securities and revenue bonds included in commercial real estate loans, as well as resulting yields, interest rate spread and net interest margin, are presented on a tax-equivalent basis. The tax-equivalent adjustments are deducted from tax-equivalent net interest income to agree to amounts reported in the consolidated statements of net income. For the years ended December 31, 2017, and 2016, yields on loans before tax-equivalent adjustments were 4.19% and 4.16%, respectively, yields on securities and certificates of deposit before tax-equivalent adjustments were 1.67% and 1.63%, respectively, and yield on total interest-earning assets before tax-equivalent adjustments were 3.95% and 3.91%, respectively. Interest rate spread before tax-equivalent adjustments for the years ended December 31, 2017, and 2016 was 2.90% and 2.99%, respectively, while net interest margin before tax-equivalent adjustments for the years ended December 31, 2017, and 2016 was 3.12% and 3.20%, respectively. |
(2) | Loans on non-accrual status are included in average balances. |
(3) | Includes Federal Home Loan Bank stock and associated dividends. |
(4) | Interest rate spread represents the difference between the tax-equivalent yield on interest-earning assets and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. |
(5) | Net interest margin represents net interest income (tax-equivalent basis) divided by average interest-earning assets. |

(3) | Net interest margin represents net interest income (tax-equivalent basis) divided by average interest-earning assets. |
(4) | The efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure representing non-interest expense, excluding merger and acquisition expenses, divided by the sum of net interest income and non-interest income excluding gains or losses on sales of securities. The efficiency ratio is a common measure used by banks to understand expenses related to the generation of revenue. We have removed gains or losses on sales of securities as management deems them to be discretionary and not representative of operating performance. We have removed merger and acquisition expenses as management deems them to be not representative of operating performance. Presented on a basis including merger and acquisition expenses and gains or losses on sales of securities, the efficiency ratio was 46.69%, 48.06% and 50.67% for the quarters ended December 31, 2017, September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively, and 51.97% and 56.67% for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, respectively. |
(5) | Tangible book value per share represents total stockholders equity less goodwill and other intangible assets divided by the number of shares outstanding. |
