SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico – (BUSINESS WIRE) – Popular, Inc. (the “Corporation,” “Popular,” “we,” “us,” “our”) (NASDAQ:BPOP) reported net income of $94.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, compared to net income of $136.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Excluding the impact during the fourth quarter of the FDIC Special Assessment, adjusted net income was $139.9 million.

Ignacio Alvarez, President and Chief Executive Officer, said: “We delivered solid fourth quarter and year-end results and entered 2024 with strong momentum. Notwithstanding the interest rate environment and the disruptions in the banking market early in the year, we were able to maintain stable net interest income as we grew loans by approximately $1 billion during the quarter and a total of $3 billion for the full year.

We continued to experience strong client activity during the year, growing our customer base in Puerto Rico by 34,000 reflecting the continued strength of the local economy and our diversified product offerings. Excluding the gain from the Evertec transaction in 2022, we grew non-interest income by $11 million. While we saw some credit normalization in our consumer portfolios, credit quality remained strong. We were also able to manage our operating expenses at the same time we continued to invest in our transformation efforts.

Our CET1 ratio at year-end was 16.3% and our tangible equity increased by 33%, or $14.77 per share. Our strong liquidity and capital ratios position us well to continue to support responsible growth in 2024.

I would like to express my gratitude and appreciation to our employees for all their hard work and dedication during the year. While conscious that we are living in a period of great uncertainty, the outlook for the macroenvironment in Puerto Rico remains positive and we look forward to 2024 with optimism.”

Significant Events

FDIC Special Assessment

On November 16, 2023, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) approved a final rule that imposes a special assessment (the “FDIC Special Assessment”) to recover the losses to the deposit insurance fund (“DIF”) resulting from the FDIC’s use, in March 2023, of the systemic risk exception to the least-cost resolution test under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act in connection with the receiverships of several failed banks.

Under the final rule, the assessment base for the special assessment is equal to an insured depository institution’s (“IDI”) estimated uninsured deposits, as reported in the IDI’s December 31, 2022 Call Report, excluding the first $5 billion in estimated uninsured deposits. For a holding company that has more than one IDI subsidiary, such as Popular, the $5 billion exclusion is allocated among the company’s IDI subsidiaries in proportion to each IDI’s estimated uninsured deposits. The special assessments would be collected at an annual rate of approximately 13.4 basis points per year (3.35 basis points per quarter) over eight quarters in 2024 and 2025, with the first assessment period beginning January 1, 2024. In their December 31, 2022 Call Reports, Banco Popular de Puerto Rico (“BPPR”) and Popular Bank (“PB”) reported estimated uninsured deposits of approximately $28.1 billion, including $16.2 billion in fully collateralized public sector deposits, and $3.5 billion, respectively. The Corporation recorded an expense of $71.4 million, $45.3 million net of tax, in the fourth quarter of 2023, representing the full amount of the assessment.

Increase in quarterly common stock dividends

During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Corporation declared a quarterly common stock cash dividend of $0.62 per share, an increase of $0.07, or 13%, compared to the $0.55 per share declared by the Corporation in the third quarter of 2023.

Net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis – Non-GAAP financial measure

Net interest income, on a taxable equivalent basis, is presented with its different components in Tables D and E for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 and comparable quarters September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively, and Table F for the year ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. Net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes that this presentation provides meaningful information since it facilitates the comparison of revenues arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources.

Non-GAAP financial measures used by the Corporation may not be comparable to similarly named non-GAAP financial measures used by other companies.

Net interest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 was $534.2 million, flat when compared to $534.0 million in the previous quarter. Net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $564.8 million, compared to $563.7 million in the previous quarter, an increase of $1.1 million.

Net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2023 was 3.08% compared with 3.07% in the prior quarter. On a taxable equivalent basis, net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2023 was 3.26%, compared to 3.24% for the prior quarter. The main quarter over quarter variances in net interest income on a taxable equivalent basis were:

 

   

Higher interest income from loans by $32.4 million resulting from an increase in average loans by $995 million, reflecting increases in BPPR and PB of $729 million and $266 million, respectively. All major loan categories in BPPR increased, while at PB the increase was mainly in the commercial and construction portfolios. Loan originations in a higher interest rate environment and the repricing of adjustable-rate loans resulted in a higher yield on loans by 17 basis points. All loan categories resulted in a higher yield quarter over quarter;

partially offset by:

 

   

Lower interest income from investment securities, trading and money market investments by $8.7 million driven mainly by lower volume of U.S. Treasury Securities, partially offset by stable volume of money market investments at a higher yield by seven basis points. The increase in the yield of money market investments is driven by the full quarter effect of the 25 basis points increase in market rates that occurred at the end of July; and

 

   

Higher interest expense on deposits by $25.1 million, mainly from the increase in cost of Puerto Rico government deposits by 34 basis points, or $10.3 million, and a higher volume and cost of PB interest bearing deposits by $555 million and 34 basis points, respectively, or $12.6 million.

Net interest income for the BPPR segment amounted to $454.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, an increase of $1.0 million when compared to $453.9 million in net interest income during the third quarter of 2023. Net interest margin for the BPPR segment increased five basis points to 3.19% compared to 3.14% in the third quarter of 2023. The increase in net interest margin reflects a higher volume of loans by $729 million across all loan categories, except construction loans, partially offset by a lower volume of investment securities, trading and money market investments by $1.6 billion driven by a decrease in deposits of $1.0 billion and a higher cost of deposits, mainly Puerto Rico government deposits. Earning assets yield improved 14 basis points from 4.74% to 4.88% in Q4 2023. The cost of interest-bearing deposits increased by 16 basis points to 2.41% from 2.25% the previous quarter. The increase in the cost of deposits mainly resulted from the repricing of public funds. Total deposit cost in the fourth quarter of 2023 was 1.79%, compared to 1.68% in the third quarter of 2023, an increase of 11 basis points.

Net interest income for PB was $85.6 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, a decrease of $1.8 million when compared to $87.4 million during the previous quarter. Net interest margin decreased by 18 basis points in the quarter to 2.72%, compared to 2.90% in the third quarter of 2023. The decrease in net interest margin was mostly driven by a higher cost of deposits, partially offset by a higher volume of loans and the repricing of adjustable-rate loans in the current interest rate environment. The cost of interest-bearing deposits was 3.66%, compared to 3.31% for the third quarter, or an increase of 34 basis points, while total deposit cost was 3.17%, compared to 2.84% in the previous quarter.

Non-interest income

Non-interest income amounted to $168.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, an increase of $9.2 million when compared to $159.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. The variance in non-interest income was driven primarily by:

 

   

a favorable variance in the fair value adjustment of equity securities by $3.6 million, mainly related to securities held for deferred benefit plans, which have an offsetting effect in personnel costs;

 

   

higher other service fees by $3.3 million due to an increase in contingent insurance commissions that are typically received during the fourth quarter and higher debit and credit card fees due to higher transactional volumes; and

 

   

a favorable variance in the adjustment for indemnity reserve on loans previously sold of $2.5 million.

Refer to Table B for further details.

Operating expenses

Operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2023 totaled $531.1 million, including higher FDIC deposit insurance expense by $72.5 million due to the impact of the FDIC Special Assessment, an increase of $65.2 million when compared to the third quarter of 2023. Excluding the effect of the FDIC Special Assessment, total expenses for the fourth quarter of 2023 were $459.7 million, compared to $466.0 million in the previous quarter. During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Corporation incurred approximately $4.8 million in costs related to its technological and business process transformation initiative, compared to $3.8 million in the previous quarter, mainly in professional services and personnel costs. During the year 2023, the Corporation incurred approximately $21.5 million in transformation related costs, compared to $24.6 million incurred during the second half of the year 2022. The other variances in operating expenses for the quarter were driven primarily by:

 

   

higher other taxes expense by $6.0 million mainly due to an accrual reversal of $8.2 million during the third quarter of 2023 related to regulatory examination fees in BPPR;

 

   

higher business promotion expense by $4.8 million mainly due to $5.4 million of seasonal projects and higher donations granted during the quarter; partially offset by lower customer rewards programs expense in our credit card business by $2.0 million;

 

   

higher other operating expenses by $3.9 million mainly due to $1.4 million in higher sundry losses and an unfavorable variance of $1.1 million in net gains/losses recognized on the sale of foreclosed auto units;

 

   

higher technology and software expenses by $3.8 million mainly due to higher IT professional fees and network management expenses due to various ongoing technology projects; and

 

   

higher net occupancy expense by $2.2 million mainly due to an increase in buildings’ repairs and maintenance costs;

partially offset by:

 

   

a non-cash goodwill impairment of $23.0 million recorded during the previous quarter in our U.S. based equipment leasing subsidiary due to lower forecasted cash flows and an increase in the rate used to discount cash flows; and

 

   

lower processing and transactional services expense by $8.4 million mainly due to lower credit card processing expenses by $7.1 million as a result of annual volume growth incentives recognized during the quarter;

Full-time equivalent employees were 9,088 as of December 31, 2023, compared to 9,063 as of September 30, 2023.

For a breakdown of operating expenses by category refer to Table B.

Income taxes

For the quarter ended December 31, 2023, the Corporation recorded an income tax benefit of $1.5 million, compared to an income tax expense of $45.9 million for the previous quarter. The positive variance of $47.4 million is mostly attributed to a lower income before tax of $89.4 million, primarily due to the FDIC Special Assessment; the remaining variance is related to tax credits, higher exempt income, and other adjustments recorded during this quarter. The effective tax rate (“ETR”) for the 2023 fourth quarter was (1.6)%, compared to 25.1% for the third quarter. Excluding the impact of the FDIC Special Assessment, the ETR for the fourth quarter was 15.0%, compared to 25.1% for the third quarter.

The Corporation’s ETR for the year 2023 was 19.9%; excluding the FDIC Special Assessment, the ETR was 21.5%. The ETR of the Corporation is impacted by the composition and source of its taxable income. The Corporation expects its ETR for the year 2024 to be within a range from 19% to 23%.

Credit Quality

During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Corporation continued to reflect credit quality normalization. Non-performing loans (“NPLs”) and net charge offs (“NCOs”) continued below historical pre-pandemic averages. Consumer portfolios, however, reflected certain credit quality deterioration, particularly the personal loans and credit cards portfolios, with delinquencies and NCOs near or exceeding pre-pandemic levels. The auto loans portfolio also showed credit normalization, however, metrics remained below pre-pandemic levels. The commercial and mortgage portfolios continue to operate with historically low levels of NCOs and NPLs. We continue to closely monitor changes in the macroeconomic environment and on borrower performance given higher interest rates and inflationary pressures. However, management believes that the improvements over recent years in risk management practices and the risk profile of the Corporation’s loan portfolios position Popular to continue to operate successfully under the current environment.

The following presents credit quality results for the fourth quarter of 2023:

 

   

At December 31, 2023, total NPLs held-in-portfolio decreased by $3.9 million from September 30, 2023. BPPR’s NPLs decreased by $5.1 million, mostly driven by lower mortgage NPLs by $12.3 million, in part offset by higher consumer NPLs by $4.9 million. The commercial NPLs remained flat quarter-over-quarter, the result of an $17.9 million relationship inflow, offset by a $5.3 million collateral dependent loan transferred to OREO, $6.4 million in loans returning to accrual status and $5.1 million in charge-offs. PB’s NPLs remained flat quarter-over-quarter. At December 31, 2023, the ratio of NPLs to total loans held-in-portfolio was 1.0%, compared to 1.1% in the third quarter of 2023.

 

   

Inflows of NPLs held-in-portfolio, excluding consumer loans, increased by $17.7 million quarter-over-quarter. In BPPR, total inflows increased by $15.0 million due to higher commercial inflows by $19.3 million driven by the abovementioned $17.9 million single relationship, in part offset by lower mortgage inflows by $4.3 million. PB inflows increased by $2.7 million, driven by higher commercial inflows.

 

   

NCOs amounted to $56.9 million, increasing by $24.3 million when compared to the third quarter of 2023. BPPR’s NCOs increased by $26.3 million quarter-over-quarter, mainly driven by higher commercial and consumer NCOs by $14.4 million and $11.2 million, respectively. The commercial NCO increase was mainly the result of a $10.8 million recovery from a loan pay-off in the previous quarter, coupled with charge-offs on valuations of collateral dependent loans during the fourth quarter of 2023. The consumer NCO increase was mainly driven by higher auto loans, personal loans and credit cards NCOs by $5.9 million, $3.1 million and $2.2 million, respectively. PB’s NCOs decreased by $2.0 million quarter-over-quarter, mainly driven by lower commercial NCOs. During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Corporation’s ratio of annualized NCOs to average loans held-in-portfolio was 0.66%, compared to 0.39% in the third quarter of 2023. Refer to Table N for further information on NCOs and related ratios.

 

   

At December 31, 2023, the allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) increased by $18.3 million from the third quarter of 2023 to $729.3 million. In BPPR the ACL increased by $15.3 million, primarily driven by a $10.0 million specific reserve for the $17.9 million new NPL mentioned above, loan growth and higher reserves for the consumer portfolios attributable to changing credit quality. In PB the ACL increased by $2.9 million from the previous quarter, mainly driven by higher reserves for the commercial portfolio due to changes in ratings.

 

   

The ACL incorporated updated macroeconomic scenarios for Puerto Rico and the United States. Given that any one economic outlook is inherently uncertain, the Corporation leverages multiple scenarios to estimate its ACL. The baseline scenario continues to be assigned the highest probability, followed by the pessimistic scenario, and then the optimistic scenario.

 

5


   

The 2023 annualized GDP growth in the baseline scenario improved to 2.0% and 2.4% for Puerto Rico and the United States, respectively, compared to 1.7% and 2.0% in the previous quarter. The 2023 forecasted average unemployment rate for Puerto Rico remained at 6.1% from previous forecast, while in the United States unemployment levels remained stable at 3.7%, compared to 3.6% in the previous forecast.

 

   

GDP growth is expected to slow down during 2024 for both regions, when compared to 2023, as a result of the Fed’s monetary policy. The 2024 GDP growth is expected to be 1.21% for Puerto Rico and 1.65% for the United States. The average 2024 unemployment rate is expected to increase to 6.79% in Puerto Rico and 3.95% in the United States.

 

   

The Corporation’s ratio of the ACL to loans held-in-portfolio was 2.08% in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to 2.09% in the previous quarter. The ratio of the ACL to NPLs held-in-portfolio stood at 204.0%, compared to 196.7% in the previous quarter.

 

   

The provision for credit losses for the loan portfolios for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $75.2 million, compared to $43.5 million in the previous quarter, reflecting the previously mentioned changes in the allowance for credit losses. The provision for the BPPR segment was $67.2 million, compared to $54.0 million in the previous quarter, while the provision for PB was $8.0 million, compared to a benefit of $10.5 million in the previous quarter. In the third quarter, the Corporation implemented a new model for the U.S. commercial real estate portfolio. The implementation of this new model generated a $15.0 million reduction in reserves, which contributed to PB’s net benefit recorded in the third quarter.

 

   

The provision for credit losses on our loan and lease portfolios, provision for unfunded loan commitments of $3.7 million, and release for credit losses on our investment portfolio of $0.2 million for the fourth quarter are aggregated and presented in the provision for credit losses caption in our Consolidated Statement of Operations. For the fourth quarter, these combined concepts resulted in a provision expense of $78.7 million, compared to $45.1 million in the previous quarter.

Total assets amounted to $70.8 billion at December 31, 2023, an increase of $1.0 billion from the third quarter of 2023, driven by:

 

   

an increase in loans held-in-portfolio of $1.0 billion driven by an increase of $748.4 million at BPPR, mainly in the commercial portfolio as well as in mortgage and consumer loans, and an increase of $287.3 million at PB mainly from commercial and construction loans; and

 

   

a net increase in cash and money market investments of $494.6 million due to higher deposits and repayments from the investment portfolio;

partially offset by:

 

   

a decrease in securities available-for-sale (“AFS”) of $400.8 million, mainly due to repayments and maturities, offset in part by favorable changes in the fair value of debt securities; and

 

   

a decrease in securities held-to-maturity (“HTM”) of $107.5 million driven by maturities of U.S. Treasury securities, partially offset by the amortization of $44.2 million of the discount related to U.S. Treasury securities previously reclassified from the AFS to HTM, which has an offsetting unrealized loss included within other comprehensive income that is also being accreted, resulting in a neutral effect to earnings.

Total liabilities increased by $331.9 million from the third quarter of 2023, driven by:

 

   

an increase of $280.6 million in deposits, mainly in time deposits and savings accounts at PB and demand deposits and P.R. public sector accounts at BPPR, partially offset by a decrease in savings accounts at BPPR; and

 

   

an increase of $70.6 million in other liabilities mainly due to the $71.4 million FDIC Special Assessment recognized during the fourth quarter.

Stockholders’ equity increased by $689.3 million from the third quarter of 2023, mainly due to the after-tax impact of the decrease in net unrealized losses in the portfolio of AFS securities of $593.2 million, the net income for the quarter of $94.6 million and the amortization of unrealized losses from securities previously reclassified to HTM of $35.3 million, net of taxes, partially offset by common and preferred dividends declared during the quarter.

Common Equity Tier 1 ratio (“CET1”), common equity per share and tangible book value per share were 16.30%, $71.03 and $59.74, respectively, at December 31, 2023, compared to 16.81%, $61.49 and $50.20, respectively, at September 30, 2023. Refer to Table A for capital ratios.

There were no non-performing loans held-for-sale as of December 31, 2023, September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022.

[2]

It is the Corporation’s policy to report delinquent residential mortgage loans insured by FHA or guaranteed by the VA as accruing loans past due 90 days or more as opposed to non-performing since the principal repayment is insured. The balance of these loans includes $11 million at December 31, 2023, related to the rebooking of loans previously pooled into GNMA securities, in which the Corporation had a buy-back option as further described below ( September 30, 2023 - $8 million; December 31, 2022 - $14 million). Under the GNMA program, issuers such as BPPR have the option but not the obligation to repurchase loans that are 90 days or more past due. For accounting purposes, these loans subject to the repurchase option are required to be reflected (rebooked) on the financial statements of BPPR with an offsetting liability. These balances include $106 million of residential mortgage loans insured by FHA or guaranteed by the VA that are no longer accruing interest as of December 31, 2023 (September 30, 2023 - $115 million; December 31, 2022 - $190 million). Furthermore, the Corporation has approximately $38 million in reverse mortgage loans which are guaranteed by FHA, but which are currently not accruing interest. Due to the guaranteed nature of the loans, it is the Corporation’s policy to exclude these balances from non-performing assets (September 30, 2023- $39 million; December 31, 2022 - $42 million).
