Chemung Financial Corporation Reports Second Quarter 2019 Net Income of $5.0 Million, or $1.02 per Share

ELMIRA, N.Y., July 22, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Chemung Financial Corporation (the “Corporation”) (Nasdaq: CHMG), the parent company of Chemung Canal Trust Company (the “Bank”), today reported net income of $5.0 million, or $1.02 per share, for the second quarter of 2019, compared to $2.5 million, or $0.52 per share, for the second quarter of 2018.

Anders M. Tomson, Chemung Financial Corporation CEO, stated:

“We are very pleased to report another quarter of strong earnings for 2019.  Our results are a direct reflection of our focused approach to managing interest rate sensitivity, liquidity, and efficiency while positioning the balance sheet for the remainder of 2019 and into 2020.  Our net interest margin remains steady, even though there is downward pressure due to the increasing costs of obtaining deposits.  We are looking forward to the benefits of a stronger balance sheet and capital ratios that will provide us with the opportunity to support continued growth.”

Second Quarter Highlights1

  • Provision for loan losses decreased $2.2 million, or 93.6%

  • Total shareholders’ equity increased $13.4 million, or 8.1%

  • Total equity to total assets ratio increased to 10.18% at June 30, 2019

  • Dividends declared during the second quarter of 2019 were $0.26 per share

A more detailed summary of financial performance follows.

1 Balance sheet comparisons are calculated for June 30, 2019 versus December 31, 2018.  Income statement comparisons are calculated for the second quarter of 2019 versus the second quarter of 2018.

2nd Quarter 2019 vs 2nd Quarter 2018

Net Interest Income:

Net interest income for the current quarter totaled $15.1 million compared with $15.0 million for the same period in the prior year, an increase of $0.1 million, or 0.6%, due primarily to a $0.8 million increase in total interest and dividend income, offset by a $0.7 million increase in total interest expense.  Interest and fees from loans increased $0.3 million and interest from interest-earning deposits increased $0.5 million in the second quarter of 2019 as compared to the same period in the prior year.  Interest expense on deposits increased $0.9 million, while interest expense on borrowed funds decreased $0.2 million in the second quarter of 2019 when compared to the same period in the prior year.  Fully taxable equivalent net interest margin was 3.69% in the second quarter of 2019, compared with 3.73% for the same period in the prior year.  The average yield on interest-earning assets increased 13 basis points, while the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 26 basis points in the second quarter of 2019, compared to the same period in the prior year.  Average interest-earning assets increased $28.6 million in the second quarter of 2019, compared to the same period in the prior year.  The increase in interest and dividend income for the current quarter can be mostly attributed to average annualized yield increases of 155 basis points on interest-earning deposits, 19 basis points on commercial loans, 34 basis points on consumer loans and 12 basis points on taxable securities, due to rising interest rates, along with a $77.9 million increase in the average balance of interest-earning deposits, compared to the same period in the prior year.  The increase in interest expense for the current quarter can be mostly attributed to an increase in interest rates on average interest-bearing deposits, including promotional rates on time deposits, offset by a $36.3 million decrease in the average balance of FHLB advances, other debt and repurchase agreements.

Non-Interest Income:

Non-interest income for the current quarter was $5.1 million compared with $5.3 million for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of $0.2 million, or 4.5%.  The decrease can be mostly attributed to a decrease of $0.4 million in other non-interest income, offset by an increase of $0.2 million in Wealth Management Group fee (“WMG”) income.  The decrease in other non-interest income was due primarily to the $0.2 million decrease in swap fees and various other non-interest income items.  The increase in WMG fee income can be mostly attributed to an increase in fees from terminating trusts.  

Non-Interest Expense:

Non-interest expense for the current quarter was $13.8 million compared with $15.0 million for the same period in the prior year, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 7.6%.  The decrease can be mostly attributed to decreases of $1.0 million in legal accruals and settlements, $0.2 million in net occupancy expenses, $0.1 million in furniture and equipment expenses, and $0.1 million in marketing and advertising expenses, offset by increases of $0.2 million in salaries and wages, $0.1 million in data process expenses, and a $0.3 million reduced credit in other components of net periodic pension and postretirement benefits.  The decrease in legal accruals and settlements can be attributed to the settlement agreement in the matter of Fane vs. Chemung Canal Trust Company during the second quarter of 2018.  The decrease in net occupancy expense was due primarily to the closure of two branches in 2019.  The increase in salaries and wages can be mostly attributed to annual merit increases. 

Income Tax Expense:

Income tax expense for the current quarter was $1.2 million compared with $0.5 million for the same period in the prior year.  The increase in income tax expense was due primarily to an increase of $3.2 million in income before income tax expense for the second quarter of 2019 as compared to the same period in the prior year.  The effective income tax rate increased from 16.1% for the second quarter of 2018 to 19.8% for the second quarter of 2019.

2nd Quarter 2019 vs 1st Quarter 2019

Net Interest Income:

Net interest income for the current quarter totaled $15.1 million compared with $15.2 million for the prior quarter, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 0.4%, due primarily to a $0.1 million increase in total interest expense.  Interest and fees from loans increased $0.1 million and interest and dividend income from investment securities increased $0.1 million, while interest from interest-earning deposits decreased $0.2 million compared to the prior quarter.  Interest expense on deposits increased due primarily to a 19 basis points increase in the average cost of time deposits, along with an increase of $10.4 million in the average balance of time deposits due to promotional rates on time deposits.  Fully taxable equivalent net interest margin was 3.69% in the second quarter of 2019, a slight decrease of two basis points compared with 3.71% for the prior quarter.  Average interest-earning assets decreased $16.9 million in the second quarter of 2019, while the average yield on interest-earning assets was level compared to the prior quarter.   The average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased three basis points in the second quarter of 2019, compared to the prior quarter.

Non-Interest Income:

Non-interest income for the current quarter was $5.1 million compared with $4.9 million for the prior quarter, an increase of $0.2 million, or 3.3%.  The increase in non-interest income was due primarily to a $0.2 million increase in WMG fee income.  The increase in WMG fee income can be mostly attributed to an increase in the market value of total assets under management or administration and an increase in tax preparation fees.

Non-Interest Expense:

Non-interest expense for the current quarter was $13.8 million compared with $13.5 million for the prior quarter, an increase of $0.3 million, or 2.4%.  The increase can be mostly attributed to increases of $0.4 million in other non-interest expense and $0.1 million in data processing expense, offset by a decrease of $0.1 million in marketing and advertising expense.  The increase in other non-interest expense can be mostly attributed to a $0.2 million increase in the debit card rewards program.  The increase in data processing expense and the decrease in marketing and advertising expense were both related to the timing of various projects.

Income Tax Expense:

Income tax expense for the current quarter was $1.2 million compared with $1.0 million for the prior quarter, an increase of $0.2 million, or 19.2%.  The increase in income tax expense can be attributed to a $0.7 million increase in income before income tax expense for the second quarter of 2019, when compared to the prior quarter.  The effective income tax rate increased from 18.8% for the first quarter of 2019 to 19.8% for the second quarter of 2019.

Asset Quality

Non-performing loans totaled $19.5 million at June 30, 2019, or 1.51% of total loans, compared with $12.3 million at December 31, 2018, or 0.93% of total loans.  Non-performing assets, which are comprised of non-performing loans and other real estate owned, were $19.7 million, or 1.12% of total assets, at June 30, 2019, compared with $12.8 million, or 0.73% of total assets, at December 31, 2018. The increase in non-performing loans can be mostly attributed to two commercial mortgage relationships, offset by decreases in the residential mortgage and consumer loan portfolios.

Management performs an ongoing assessment of the adequacy of the allowance for loan losses based upon a number of factors including an analysis of historical loss factors, collateral evaluations, recent charge-off experience, credit quality of the loan portfolio, current economic conditions and loan growth.  Based on this analysis, the provision for loan losses for the second quarter of 2019 was $0.2 million, a decrease of $2.2 million compared with the same period in the prior year.  The decrease in the provision for loan losses can be mostly attributed to a decrease in the total loan portfolio of $46.1 million between June 30, 2018 and June 30, 2019.  Additionally, during 2018 there was an increase in the historical loss factor on the commercial and industrial loan portfolio, due to the charge-off of multiple large commercial loans to one borrower for $3.6 million in the second quarter.  Net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2019 were $0.2 million, compared with $4.1 million for the second quarter of 2018. 

The allowance for loan losses was $19.7 million at June 30, 2019 compared with $18.9 million at December 31, 2018.  The allowance for loan losses was 100.77% of non-performing loans at June 30, 2019 compared with 154.59% at December 31, 2018.  The ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans was 1.53% at June 30, 2019 compared with 1.44% at December 31, 2018.

Balance Sheet Activity

Total assets were $1.753 billion at June 30, 2019 compared with $1.755 billion at December 31, 2018, a decrease of $2.3 million, or 0.1%.  The decrease can be mostly attributed to decreases of $13.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $23.5 million in total loans, offset by increases of $27.0 million in securities available for sale and $8.2 million in operating lease right-to-use assets related to the adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 Leases (“Topic 842”) as of January 1, 2019.

The decrease in cash and cash equivalents was due to changes in securities, loans, deposits, and borrowings.  The decrease in total loans can be mostly attributed to decreases of $13.4 million in commercial mortgages, $10.7 million in indirect consumer loans and $5.2 million in other consumer loans, offset by increases of $4.7 million in commercial and agriculture loans and $1.1 million in residential mortgages.  The increase in securities available for sale can be mostly attributed to purchases in the amount of $57.3 million, offset by $15.2 million in sales of mortgage-backed and municipal securities, along with maturities and paydowns.

Total liabilities were $1.575 billion at June 30, 2019 compared with $1.590 billion at December 31, 2018, a decrease of $15.7 million or 1.0%.  The decrease in total liabilities can be mostly attributed to a decrease of $28.1 million in deposits, offset by increases of $8.3 million in operating lease liabilities related to the January 1, 2019 adoption of Topic 842 and $4.3 million in accrued interest payable and other liabilities.  The decline in deposits from $1.569 billion at December 31, 2018 to $1.541 billion at June 30, 2019 can be mostly attributed to decreases of $32.4 million in non-interest bearing demand deposits accounts and $32.9 million in money market accounts, offset by increases of $27.6 million in time deposits, due to a rate promotion, and $9.2 million in interest-bearing demand deposit accounts.  The decreases in non-interest-bearing demand deposit and money market accounts can be mostly attributed to an outflow of commercial deposits.

Total shareholders’ equity was $178.4 million at June 30, 2019 compared with $165.0 million at December 31, 2018, an increase of $13.4 million, or 8.1%.  The increase in retained earnings of $6.9 million can be mostly attributed to earnings of $9.4 million, offset by $2.5 million in dividends declared.  The decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $5.5 million can be mostly attributed to the increase in the fair market value of the securities portfolio.  Also, treasury stock decreased $0.5 million, due to the issuance of shares to the Corporation’s employee benefit stock plans and directors’ stock plans.

The total equity to total assets ratio was 10.18% at June 30, 2019 compared with 9.40% at December 31, 2018.  The tangible equity to tangible assets ratio was 8.99% at June 30, 2019 compared with 8.19% at December 31, 2018.  Book value per share increased to $36.64 at June 30, 2019 from $33.99 at December 31, 2018.  As of June 30, 2019, the Bank’s capital ratios were in excess of those required to be considered well-capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action.

Other Items

The market value of total assets under management or administration in our Wealth Management Group was $1.838 billion at June 30, 2019, including $273.5 million of assets under management or administration for the Corporation, compared to $1.768 billion at December 31, 2018, including $283.0 million of assets under management or administration for the Corporation, an increase of $69.7 million, or 3.9%.  The increase in total assets under management or administration can be mostly attributed to increases in the market value of total assets.

GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations (Unaudited)

The Corporation prepares its Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP.  See the Corporation’s unaudited consolidated balance sheets and statements of income contained within this press release. That presentation provides the reader with an understanding of the Corporation’s results that can be tracked consistently from period-to-period and enables a comparison of the Corporation’s performance with other companies’ GAAP financial statements.

In addition to analyzing the Corporation’s results on a reported basis, management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, because it believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide information to investors about the underlying operational performance and trends of the Corporation and, therefore, facilitate a comparison of the Corporation with the performance of its competitors. Non-GAAP financial measures used by the Corporation may not be comparable to similarly named non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

The SEC has adopted Regulation G, which applies to all public disclosures, including earnings releases, made by registered companies that contain “non-GAAP financial measures.”  Under Regulation G, companies making public disclosures containing non-GAAP financial measures must also disclose, along with each non-GAAP financial measure, certain additional information, including a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the closest comparable GAAP financial measure and a statement of the Corporation’s reasons for utilizing the non-GAAP financial measure as part of its financial disclosures.  The SEC has exempted from the definition of “non-GAAP financial measures” certain commonly used financial measures that are not based on GAAP.  When these exempted measures are included in public disclosures, supplemental information is not required.  The following measures used in this Report, which are commonly utilized by financial institutions, have not been specifically exempted by the SEC and may constitute "non-GAAP financial measures" within the meaning of the SEC's rules, although we are unable to state with certainty that the SEC would so regard them.

Fully Taxable Equivalent Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Net interest income is commonly presented on a tax-equivalent basis.  That is, to the extent that some component of the institution's net interest income, which is presented on a before-tax basis, is exempt from taxation (e.g., is received by the institution as a result of its holdings of state or municipal obligations), an amount equal to the tax benefit derived from that component is added to the actual before-tax net interest income total.  This adjustment is considered helpful in comparing one financial institution's net interest income to that of other institutions or in analyzing any institution’s net interest income trend line over time, to correct any analytical distortion that might otherwise arise from the fact that financial institutions vary widely in the proportions of their portfolios that are invested in tax-exempt securities, and that even a single institution may significantly alter over time the proportion of its own portfolio that is invested in tax-exempt obligations.  Moreover, net interest income is itself a component of a second financial measure commonly used by financial institutions, net interest margin, which is the ratio of net interest income to average interest-earning assets.  For purposes of this measure as well, fully taxable equivalent net interest income is generally used by financial institutions, as opposed to actual net interest income, again to provide a better basis of comparison from institution to institution and to better demonstrate a single institution’s performance over time.  The Corporation follows these practices.

Efficiency Ratio

The unadjusted efficiency ratio is calculated as non-interest expense divided by total revenue (net interest income and non-interest income).  The adjusted efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure which represents the Corporation’s ability to turn resources into revenue and is calculated as non-interest expense divided by total revenue (fully taxable equivalent net interest income and non-interest income), adjusted for one-time occurrences and amortization.  This measure is meaningful to the Corporation, as well as investors and analysts, in assessing the Corporation’s productivity measured by the amount of revenue generated for each dollar spent.

Tangible Equity and Tangible Assets (Period-End)

Tangible equity, tangible assets, and tangible book value per share are each non-GAAP financial measures. Tangible equity represents the Corporation’s stockholders’ equity, less goodwill and intangible assets.  Tangible assets represents the Corporation’s total assets, less goodwill and other intangible assets.  Tangible book value per share represents the Corporation’s equity divided by common shares at period-end.  These measures are meaningful to the Corporation, as well as investors and analysts, in assessing the Corporation’s use of equity.

Tangible Equity (Average)

Average tangible equity and return on average tangible equity are each non-GAAP financial measures. Average tangible equity represents the Corporation’s average stockholders’ equity, less average goodwill and intangible assets for the period.  Return on average tangible equity measures the Corporation’s earnings as a percentage of average tangible equity.  These measures are meaningful to the Corporation, as well as investors and analysts, in assessing the Corporation’s use of equity.

Adjustments for Certain Items of Income or Expense

In addition to disclosures of certain GAAP financial measures, including net income, EPS, ROA, and ROE, we may also provide comparative disclosures that adjust these GAAP financial measures for a particular period by removing from the calculation thereof the impact of certain transactions or other material items of income or expense occurring during the period, including certain nonrecurring items.  The Corporation believes that the resulting non-GAAP financial measures may improve an understanding of its results of operations by separating out any such transactions or items that may have had a disproportionate positive or negative impact on the Corporation’s financial results during the particular period in question. In the Corporation’s presentation of any such non-GAAP (adjusted) financial measures not specifically discussed in the preceding paragraphs, the Corporation supplies the supplemental financial information and explanations required under Regulation G.
