“We continue to be very pleased with the resiliency of our markets and the strength of our asset quality in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Kevin P. Riley, President and Chief Executive Officer of First Interstate BancSystem, Inc. “We are seeing a number of positive trends that reflect the health of our borrowers including declines in non-performing assets and criticized loans, increasing deposit balances, and the vast majority of our deferred loans returning to their scheduled payments at the expiration of their deferral period. While the low interest rate environment and caution on the part of commercial borrowers presents challenges for revenue growth, we are benefiting from our diverse business mix that enables us to capitalize on pockets of strength we are seeing in the economy, such as residential mortgage and indirect consumer lending.”

“We remain very well positioned to manage through the continuation of the pandemic, with high levels of capital and liquidity. We believe our overall financial performance will remain relatively consistent over the second half of the year. Despite the near-term challenges, we continue to operate with a long-term perspective and execute well on the technology initiatives that are strengthening our infrastructure, improving our scalability, and enabling us to continually offer new digital banking features to our clients. We believe that the progress we have made to enhance our technological platform has positioned us well to capitalize on organic and acquisitive growth opportunities in the coming years as we return to a more normalized operating environment,” said Mr. Riley.

DIVIDEND DECLARATION

On July 24, 2020, the Company’s board of directors declared a dividend of $0.34 per common share, payable on August 17, 2020, to common stockholders of record as of August 7, 2020. The dividend equates to a 4.45% annualized yield based on the $30.54 per share average closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported on NASDAQ during the second quarter of 2020.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income decreased by 0.5%, to $122.5 million, during the second quarter of 2020, compared to $123.1 million during the first quarter of 2020. Net interest income decreased $2.8 million, or 2.2% during the second quarter of 2020, compared to $125.3 million during the second quarter of 2019. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company recorded a total of $8.6 million of interest income from PPP lending activity. The decreases were primarily the result of lower levels of charged-off interest and interest accretion related to the fair valuation of acquired loans, and the impact of the March decrease in the Fed Funds rate.


•	There were no material recoveries of previously charged-off interest included in net interest income this quarter, compared to previously charged-off interest recoveries of $0.2 million during the first quarter of 2020 and $1.5 million during the second quarter of 2019.

•

Interest accretion attributable to the fair valuation of acquired loans contributed $3.0 million to net interest income during the second quarter of 2020, of which approximately $1.1 million was related to early payoffs. This compares to interest accretion of $3.8 million in net interest income during the first quarter of 2020, of which approximately $1.1 million was related to early payoffs, and interest accretion of $5.2 million in net interest income during the second quarter of 2019, of which approximately $2.6 million was related to early payoffs.

The net interest margin ratio was 3.52% for the second quarter of 2020 compared to 3.90% reported during the first quarter of 2020 and 4.08% during the second quarter of 2019. The decreases were the result of lower yields on interest earning assets as a result of the impact of the reduction in the federal funds rate, significant PPP loan balances at low yields, higher cash balances, and interest on long-term debt partially offset by lower deposit costs.

•

Exclusive of the impact of the recovery of charged-off interest and interest accretion, the Company’s net interest margin ratio contracted 33 basis points to 3.44% during the second quarter of 2020, compared to 3.77% during the first quarter of 2020, primarily due to lower yields on the Company’s earning assets as a result of significant PPP loan balances with low yields, higher cash balances, and an increase in long-term debt, partially offset by lower funding costs.

•

Exclusive of the impact of the recovery of charged-off interest and interest accretion, the Company’s net interest margin ratio contracted 42 basis points to 3.44%, compared to 3.86% during the second quarter of 2019, primarily as a result of the impact of the reduction in the federal funds rate, significant PPP loan balances at low yields, higher cash balances, and interest on long-term debt, all of which were partially offset by lower deposit costs.

PROVISION FOR CREDIT LOSSES

The provision for the first and second quarters of 2020 reflect the adoption of the current expected credit loss (CECL) accounting standard. The provision includes an increase in expected losses over the life of the loan portfolios as a result of significant changes in the Company's internal economic forecast related to the recent outbreak of the coronavirus (COVID-19) and uncertainty regarding the benefits of government stimulus. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $19.5 million, compared to $29.0 million during the first quarter of 2020, and $3.8 million during the second quarter of 2019. The provision includes the impact of net charge-offs of $2.3 million, or 0.09% of average loans outstanding, for the second quarter of 2020, compared to $3.1 million, or 0.14% of average loans outstanding, for the first quarter of 2020, and $2.0 million, or 0.09% of average loans outstanding for the second quarter of 2019.

The Company’s allowance for credit losses on loans as a percentage of period-end loans held for investment, including PPP loans, increased to 1.46% at June 30, 2020, compared to 1.45% at March 31, 2020, and 0.82% at June 30, 2019. The increase from June 30, 2019 is a result of the adoption of the CECL standard and the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s clients. Coverage of non-performing loans increased to 253.65% at June 30, 2020, compared to 204.60% at March 31, 2020, as a result of a higher allowance for credit losses and lower levels of non-performing loans, and compared to 160.61% at June 30, 2019. The increase from June 30, 2019 is primarily a result of the adoption of the CECL standard and the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s clients.

While the allowance for credit losses on loans of 1.46% include the PPP loan balance, the allowance for credit losses does not include a reserve on the 100% Small Business Administration guaranteed PPP loans. The allowance for credit losses on loans as a percentage of period-end loans held for investment would have been 20 basis points higher had the PPP loan balances been excluded at June 30, 2020.

NON-INTEREST INCOME

Total non-interest income increased $1.3 million, or 3.4%, to $39.7 million during the second quarter of 2020, as compared to $38.4 million during the first quarter of 2020, as increases in mortgage banking revenues and other income partially offset declines in other non-interest income sources. Total non-interest income increased $2.1 million, or 5.6%, from $37.6 million during the second quarter of 2019, which is primarily the result of higher mortgage banking revenues partially offset by a decrease in other fee income in the second quarter of 2020 associated with COVID-19.

The Company reclassified mortgage servicing revenues and direct costs related to loans sold (including amortization, impairment, and other expenses) to mortgage banking revenue to provide more clarity to mortgage banking activity for all periods presented. Mortgage banking revenues increased $3.3 million, or 30.3%, to $14.2 million during the second quarter of 2020, as compared to $10.9 million during the first quarter of 2020 and increased $5.2 million, or 57.8%, during the second quarter of 2020 from $9.0 million during the second quarter of 2019. The increases were primarily driven by all-time high levels of mortgage loan production due to higher levels of refinance activity as a result of the favorable interest rate environment. These increases were partially offset by mortgage servicing impairments of $2.9 million and $5.5 million, in the first and the second quarter of 2020, respectively. During the second quarter of 2020, loans originated for home purchases accounted for approximately 29.0% of loan production, as compared to 49.9% during the first quarter of 2020 and 81.4% during the second quarter of 2019 due to the higher level of refinancing activity.

Service charges on deposit accounts decreased $1.8 million, or 33.3%, to $3.6 million during the second quarter of 2020, as compared to $5.4 million during the first quarter of 2020 and the second quarter of 2019. The decreases are primarily due to changes in client behavior and the Company waiving continuous overdraft fees and regular overdraft fees for clients receiving stimulus checks during the second quarter of 2020, as part of the U.S. government response to COVID-19, .

NON-INTEREST EXPENSE

Non-interest expense increased $0.6 million, or 0.6%, to $95.6 million during the second quarter of 2020, as compared to $95.0 million during the first quarter of 2020. Non-interest expense decreased $14.7 million, or 13.3%, from $110.3 million during the second quarter of 2019, primarily due to a decrease in acquisition related expenses.

There were no material acquisition related expenses for the first or second quarter of 2020 whereas the second quarter of 2019 included $13.5 million of such expenses. Exclusive of acquisition related expenses, non-interest expense decreased $1.2 million, compared to $96.8 million during the second quarter of 2019.

Salaries and wages expense increased $4.3 million, or 10.8%, to $44.2 million during the second quarter of 2020, compared to $39.9 million during the first quarter of 2020, and increased $4.1 million, or 10.2%, from $40.1 million in the second quarter of 2019, primarily as a result of higher levels of incentive accruals during the second quarter of 2020.

Employee benefit expenses decreased $3.8 million, or 26.8%, to $10.4 million during the second quarter of 2020, when compared to the $14.2 million incurred during the first quarter of 2020, primarily due to lower health insurance costs and lower payroll taxes. Employee benefit expenses decreased $3.6 million, or 25.7%, from $14.0 million during the second quarter of 2019, primarily due to lower health insurance and other employee benefit costs as compared to the second quarter of 2019.

BALANCE SHEET

Total assets increased $2,060.0 million, or 14.3%, to $16,471.4 million as of June 30, 2020, from $14,411.4 million as of March 31, 2020 and increased $2,056.8 million, or 14.3%, from $14,414.6 million as of June 30, 2019. The increases from the comparable periods are primarily due to an increase in loans held for investment as a result of the PPP loans originated and increases in investment securities and cash and cash equivalents as a result of higher levels of deposits.

Loans held for investment increased $1,114.5 million, or 12.5%, to $10,032.5 million as of June 30, 2020, from $8,918.0 million as of March 31, 2020 and increased $1,037.3 million, or 11.5%, as of June 30, 2020, from $8,995.2 million as of June 30, 2019. During the second quarter of 2020, the Company originated PPP loans of $1.2 billion.

The increases were partially offset by a decrease primarily in land acquisition and development construction loans of $5.2 million, or 1.8%.

Total real estate loans increased $212.8 million, or 3.6%, from June 30, 2019. Growth within the real estate loan portfolio is primarily attributable to increases in commercial loans of $135.3 million, or 3.9%, increases in commercial construction loans of $106.4 million, or 30.1%, and increases in residential loans of $9.3 million, or 0.7%. Growth was primarily offset by decreases in land acquisition and development construction loans of $22.1 million, or 7.2%, and decreases in residential construction loans of $14.8 million, or 5.7%.

Total consumer loans increased $16.3 million, or 1.6%, to $1,041.8 million as of June 30, 2020, from $1,025.5 million as of March 31, 2020.

Total consumer loans decreased $34.2 million, or 3.2%, from $1,076.0 million, as of June 30, 2019, primarily attributable to deceases in the direct and credit card loan portfolios as compared to June 30, 2019.

Commercial loans increased $988.6 million, or 59.6%, to $2,648.6 million as of June 30, 2020, from $1,660.0 million as of March 31, 2020 and increased $887.9 million, or 50.4%, from $1,760.7 million as of June 30, 2019, primarily due to the PPP loans partially offset by pay-downs within the portfolio.

Agricultural loans increased $24.9 million, or 9.7%, to $282.8 million as of June 30, 2020, from $257.9 million as of March 31, 2020, primarily due to seasonal draw downs on operating lines. Agricultural loans increased $5.2 million, or 1.9%, from $277.6 million as of June 30, 2019.

Mortgage loans held for sale increased $75.5 million, or 80.0%, to $169.9 million as of June 30, 2020, from $94.4 million as of March 31, 2020, and increased $105.8 million, or 165.1%, as of June 30, 2020, from $64.1 million as of June 30, 2019. The increases are primarily due to an increase in originations of mortgage loans held for sale as a result of higher levels of refinance activity driven by lower interest rates.

Other assets increased $25.0 million, or 10.4%, to $264.8 million as of June 30, 2020, from $239.8 million as of March 31, 2020, primarily due to increases in accrued interest receivables of $10.2 million, company owned life receivables of $5.0 million, PPP loan fee receivables of $3.5 million, and interest rate swap contracts of $7.2 million which were partially offset by normal fluctuations in other assets. Other assets increased $61.1 million, or 30.0%, as of June 30, 2020, from $203.7 million as of June 30, 2019, primarily due to increases in interest rate swap contracts of $47.7 million, accrued interest receivables of $6.3 million, company owned life receivables of $5.0 million, PPP loan fee receivables of $3.5 million which were partially offset by normal fluctuations in other assets.

Total deposits increased $1,775.3 million, or 15.4%, to $13,340.4 million as of June 30, 2020, from $11,565.1 million as of March 31, 2020, primarily as a result of a $1,117.3 million increase in non-interest bearing business deposits and an increase in interest bearing demand and savings deposits. These increases were partially offset by decreases in interest bearing time deposits. Total deposits increased $1,850.5 million, or 16.1%, from $11,489.9 million as of June 30, 2019, primarily related to an increase of $1,053.7 million in non-interest-bearing business deposits and an increase in interest bearing demand and savings deposits. These increases were partially offset by decreases in interest-bearing time deposits.

Securities sold under repurchase agreements increased $142.0 million, or 23.1%, to $756.1 million as of June 30, 2020, from $614.1 million as of March 31, 2020, and increased $69.4 million, or 10.1%, as of June 30, 2020, from $686.7 million as of June 30, 2019. Fluctuations in repurchase agreement balances correspond with fluctuations in the liquidity of the Company’s clients.

Long-term debt increased $98.4 million to $112.3 million as of June 30, 2020, from $13.9 million as of March 31, 2020, and increased $96.5 million, from $15.8 million as of June 30, 2019. The increase is due to the Company’s issuance of $100 million of subordinated notes in the second quarter of 2020.

The loans held for investment to deposit ratio was 75.2%, as of June 30, 2020, compared to 77.1% and 78.3% as of March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively.

CREDIT QUALITY

As of June 30, 2020, non-performing assets decreased $7.2 million, or 10.1%, to $64.1 million, compared to $71.3 million as of March 31, 2020, primarily due to decreases in non-accrual loans of $1.2 million, or 2.3%, loans 90 days past due of $4.3 million, or 35.8%, and other real estate owned of $1.7 million, or 20.7%.

Criticized loans decreased $33.9 million, or 8.5%, to $366.1 million as of June 30, 2020, from $400.0 million as of March 31, 2020, driven primarily by pay-downs in commercial and commercial real estate loans which were partially offset by downgrades. Criticized loans decreased $47.9 million from $414.0 million as of June 30, 2019.

Net loan charge-offs decreased $0.8 million, or 25.8%, to $2.3 million during the second quarter of 2020, as compared to $3.1 million during the first quarter of 2020.

Net loan charge-offs during the second quarter of 2019 were $2.0 million.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

In addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP in the United States of America, this release contains the following non-GAAP financial measures that management uses to evaluate our capital adequacy: (i) tangible book value per common share; (ii) tangible common stockholders’ equity to tangible assets; (iii) tangible assets; (iv) tangible common stockholders’ equity; and (v) return on average tangible common stockholders’ equity. Tangible book value per common share is calculated as tangible common stockholders’ equity divided by common shares outstanding. Tangible common stockholders’ equity to tangible assets is calculated as tangible common stockholders’ equity divided by tangible assets. Tangible assets are calculated as total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing assets). Tangible common stockholders’ equity to tangible assets is calculated as tangible common stockholders’ equity divided by tangible assets. Return on average tangible common stockholders’ equity is calculated as net income available to common shareholders divided by average tangible common stockholders’ equity. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies because other companies may not calculate these non-GAAP measures in the same manner. They also should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.

The Company adjusts the foregoing capital adequacy measures to exclude intangible assets except mortgage servicing rights, adjusts its non-interest expense to exclude acquisition related expenses, and adjusts its net interest margin ratio to exclude the impact of the recovery of charged-off interest and the impact of interest accretion on acquired loans. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures, which are intended to complement the capital ratios defined by banking regulators and to present on a consistent basis our and our acquired companies' organic continuing operations without regard to the acquisition costs and adjustments that we consider to be unpredictable and dependent on a significant number of factors that are outside our control, are useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s performance because, as a general matter, they either do not represent an actual cash expense and are inconsistent in amount and frequency depending upon the timing and size of our acquisitions (including the size, complexity and/or volume of past acquisitions, which may drive the magnitude of acquisition related costs, but may not be indicative of the size, complexity and/or volume of future acquisitions or related costs), or they cannot be anticipated or estimated in a particular period (in particular as it relates to unexpected recovery amounts). This impacts the ratios which are important to analysts and allows investors to compare certain aspects of the Company’s capitalization to other companies.

See the Non-GAAP Financial Measures table included herein and the textual discussion for a reconciliation of the above described non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
