Moline, IL, April 28, 2020 -- QCR Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: QCRH) (the “Company”) today announced net income of $11.2 million and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) of $0.70 for the first quarter of 2020, compared to net income of $15.9 million and diluted EPS of $0.99 for the fourth quarter of 2019. Provision expense increased $7.4 million in the first quarter of 2020, compared to the fourth quarter of 2019, as a result of increased qualitative factors in response to deteriorating economic conditions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The first quarter results included $517 thousand of disposition costs due to the sale of Rockford Bank and Trust (“RB&T”) and a $500 thousand goodwill impairment charge related to the pending sale of the Bates Companies (“Bates”). The fourth quarter of 2019 results included a $12.3 million gain on sale and $3.3 million of disposition costs due to the sale of RB&T. Additionally in the fourth quarter of 2019, there was a $3.0 million goodwill impairment charge related to Bates as a result of the decision to exit the Rockford market. The first quarter results also included $151 thousand of post-acquisition compensation, transition and integration costs, compared to $1.9 million of similar costs in the fourth quarter of 2019.

 

Excluding these expenses and some modest cost for early debt extinguishment, the Company reported adjusted net income (non-GAAP) of $12.4 million and adjusted diluted EPS (non-GAAP) of $0.77 for the first quarter of 2020, compared to adjusted net income (non-GAAP) of $15.4 million and adjusted diluted EPS (non-GAAP) of $0.96 for the fourth quarter of 2019. For the first quarter of 2019, net income and diluted EPS were $12.9 million and $0.81, respectively, and adjusted net income (non-GAAP) and adjusted diluted EPS (non-GAAP) were $13.0 million and $0.82, respectively.

“As a country, we are in the midst of an unprecedented challenge with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, and it remains difficult to predict the ultimate impact on our clients because the depth and duration of this pandemic are still unknown,” said Larry J. Helling, Chief Executive Officer. “However, each of our banks is well-capitalized, and is dedicated to serving our clients for as long as this crisis lasts. We believe our philosophy of putting clients first, combined with local decision-making, is the best way to serve our customers during these uncertain times. We have seasoned credit teams at all charters that have experience dealing with significant economic downturns, and all of our employees are dedicated to helping our clients weather this storm.”

 

 

“We have rolled out our Loan Relief Program that allows impacted clients to defer payments and preserve cash and liquidity,” Helling continued. “Additionally, our lending teams are actively enrolling many existing and new small-business clients in the SBA Paycheck Protection Program, which was intended to provide much needed capital and liquidity to many of our commercial and non-profit clients. As of April 24th, our banks received approvals from the SBA to fund 1,300 loans totaling $333 million. These approvals were accomplished in a very short amount of time thanks to an extraordinary effort by our staff. We are confident that we will grow our client base as a result of these efforts.”

 

“Though the public health crisis did impact our results in the form of lower loan growth and an increased provision for loan losses, our overall credit quality remained strong and our Company was solidly profitable through the first quarter,” Helling added. “I am proud of our first-quarter financial performance and our healthy underlying fundamentals. We remain steadfast in our focus on expanding our presence in the communities we serve across all our charters and providing best in class service through operational excellence, and we believe that we are well positioned to deal with the challenges in front of us.”

 

Annualized Loan and Lease Growth of 1.6% for the Quarter

 

During the first quarter of 2020, the Company’s total loans and leases increased slightly by $14.5 million to a total of $3.7 billion. Loan and lease growth was adversely impacted by reduced economic activity across all markets as a result of the voluntary or mandatory closures of public venues, businesses, schools and government offices due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, the Company received a number of sizable loan paydowns in the beginning of the quarter, further impacting quarter-end loan balances. Core deposits (excluding brokered deposits) increased $132.6 million, or 3.5% on a linked quarter basis. At quarter-end, the percentage of wholesale funds to total assets was 10.1%, which was up from 8.8% in the fourth quarter of 2019 as the Company accessed some short-term wholesale funding out of an abundance of caution. At quarter-end, the percentage of gross loans and leases to total assets was 71%, which was down from 75% in the fourth quarter.

 

“The slowdown in economic activity caused by the COVID-19 pandemic impacted our loan growth for the quarter,” added Mr. Helling. “Loan production slowed significantly in March and that trend has continued into the second quarter. We also experienced several large payoffs during the quarter, which impacted our loan growth as well. Due to the inherent difficulty in predicting the duration of the pandemic, we are withdrawing our previously announced targeted range for full-year organic loan growth.”

 

Net Interest Income of $37.7 million; Adjusted NIM up 7 basis points

 

Linked-quarter comparisons of net interest income are impacted by the sale of RB&T on November 30, 2019 and varying levels of acquisition-related net accretion. While the sale of RB&T reduced average earning assets by 5.3% on a linked-quarter basis, net interest income, excluding RB&T and acquisition-related accretion (non-GAAP), was nearly static due to a significant increase in net interest margin (“NIM”) in the first quarter of 2020.

 

   For the Quarter Ended 
   March 31,   December 31,   March 31, 
   2020   2019   2019 
Net Interest Income - Reported  $37.7   $39.9   $36.9 
Net Interest Income - RB&T  $-   $(1.8)  $(3.4)
Acquisition-related Net Accretion  $(0.6)  $(0.9)  $(1.1)
Net Interest Income Ex-RB&T / Ex-Accretion  $37.1   $37.2   $32.4 

 

In the first quarter, reported NIM was 3.40% and, on a tax-equivalent yield basis (non-GAAP), NIM was 3.56%, an increase of 4 basis points and 5 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2019, respectively. Adjusted NIM (non-GAAP), excluding acquisition-related net accretion was 3.50%, up 7 basis points from the fourth quarter. The increase in Adjusted NIM (non-GAAP) during the quarter was due to an 11 basis point decline in the total cost of interest-bearing funds (due to both mix and rate), partially offset by a 3 basis point decrease in the yield on earning assets.

See GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliations               

 

“We expanded our adjusted net interest margin again during the first quarter as we continued to drive down our deposit costs while successfully increasing core deposits during the quarter. Our average loan yields also declined during the quarter, but at a slower pace than the decrease in our funding costs, expanding our margin,” stated Todd A. Gipple, President, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer.

 

Noninterest Income of $15.2 million

 

Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2020 totaled $15.2 million, compared to $29.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. The fourth quarter of 2019 results included a $12.3 million gain on the sale of RB&T. Excluding this gain, noninterest income totaled $17.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. The first quarter decline in noninterest income was mostly due to the sale of RB&T late in the fourth quarter of 2019. Wealth management revenue was $4.0 million for the quarter, consistent with the fourth quarter of 2019. Noninterest income increased 26.7% when compared to the first quarter of 2019.

 

“Our noninterest income was down modestly in the first quarter, however, we did experience another strong quarter of swap fee income, which came in at $6.8 million for the quarter, at the high end of our guidance range. Given the uncertainty surrounding the pandemic, we are withdrawing our previously announced targeted range for full-year swap fee income and gain on sale of guaranteed portions of loans,” added Mr. Gipple.

 

Noninterest Expenses of $31.4 million

 

Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2020 totaled $31.4 million, compared to $46.3 million and $32.4 million for the fourth and first quarters of 2019, respectively. The linked quarter decrease was due to a number of factors, including a $5.7 million decline in salaries and employee benefits due to the sale of RB&T as well as reduced bonus and incentive compensation, a $2.8 million decline in disposition costs and a $2.5 million lower goodwill impairment charge. In addition, post-acquisition transition and integration costs decreased by $1.7 million due to the completion of the core conversion of Springfield First Community Bank in the fourth quarter of 2019.

Asset Quality Remains Solid

 

Nonperforming assets (“NPAs”) totaled $16.9 million, an increase of $3.9 million from the fourth quarter of 2019. The increase was primarily due to one lending relationship. The ratio of NPAs to total assets increased to 0.32% at March 31, 2020, compared to 0.27% at December 31, 2019 and down from 0.52% at March 31, 2019.

 

The Company’s provision for loan and lease losses totaled $8.4 million for the first quarter of 2020, up from $1.0 million in the prior quarter and $2.1 million in the first quarter of 2019. The linked quarter increase in the provision for loan and lease losses was primarily due to increased qualitative factors in response to deteriorating economic conditions. As of March 31, 2020, the Company’s allowance to total loans and leases was 1.14%, which was up from 0.98% at December 31, 2019 and from 1.08% at March 31, 2019.

 

In accordance with GAAP for acquisition accounting, loans acquired through past acquisitions were recorded at market value; therefore, there was no allowance associated with the acquired loans at the acquisition date. Management continues to evaluate the allowance needed on the acquired loans factoring in the net remaining discount ($6.3 million at March 31, 2020).

 

Strong Capital Levels

 

As of March 31, 2020, the Company’s total risk-based capital ratio was 13.33%, the common equity tier 1 ratio was 10.14%, and the tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio was 8.76%. By comparison, these respective ratios were 13.33%, 10.18% and 9.25% as of December 31, 2019. The slight decline in these ratios was the result of asset growth associated with holding higher liquidity and cash balances along with the Company’s previously announced share repurchase program and changes in interest rate swap market valuations.

 

Share Repurchase Program

 

On February 18, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program, permitting the repurchase of up to 800,000 shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock, or approximately 5% of the outstanding shares as of December 31, 2019.

During the first quarter, the Company repurchased approximately 101,000 shares of common stock at an average price of $37.45 per share. The Company ceased the repurchase of shares on March 16, 2020 as the COVID-19 pandemic began to impact our country.

Focus on Three Key Long-Term Initiatives

 

As part of the Company’s ongoing efforts to grow earnings and drive attractive long-term returns for shareholders, it has developed three key strategic long-term initiatives:

 

·Organic loan and lease growth of 9% per year, funded by core deposits;
·Grow fee-based income by at least 6% per year; and
·Limit our annual operating expense growth to 5% per year.

 

It should be noted that these initiatives are long-term targets. Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company may not be able to achieve these goals for the full year 2020.

 (1) This ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure.  The Company's management believes that this measurement is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in changes  period-to-period in common equity.  In compliance with applicable rules of the SEC, this non-GAAP measure is reconciled to stockholders' equity and total assets, which are the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
 (2) Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income attributable to QCR Holdings, Inc. common stockholders, Adjusted earnings per common share and Adjusted return on average assets are  non-GAAP financial measures.  The Company's management believes that these measurements are important to investors as they exclude non-recurring income and expense items,  therefore, they provide a more realistic run-rate for future periods. In compliance with applicable rules of the SEC, this non-GAAP measure is reconciled to net income, which is  the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.
 (3) Nonrecurring items (post-tax) are calculated using an estimated effective tax rate of 21% with the exception of goodwill impairment which is not deductible for tax and gain on sale of subsidiary which  has an estimated effective tax rate of 30.5%.
 (4) Acquisition costs were analyzed individually for deductibility.Presented amounts are tax-effected accordingly.
 (5) Interest earned and yields on nontaxable securities and loans are determined on a tax equivalent basis using a 21%.
 (6) Net interest margin (TEY) is a non-GAAP financial measure.  The Company's management utilizes this measurement to take into account the tax benefit associated with certain loans  and securities.  It is also standard industry practice to measure net interest margin using tax-equivalent measures.   In compliance with applicable rules of the SEC, this non-GAAP  measure is reconciled to net interest income, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.  In addition, the Company calculates net interest margin without the  impact of acquisition accounting net accretion as this can fluctuate and it's difficult to provide a more realistic run-rate for future periods.
 (7) Efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure.  The Company's management utilizes this ratio to compare to industry peers.  The ratio is used to calculate overhead as a percentage of revenue. In compliance with the applicable rules of the SEC, this non-GAAP measure is reconciled to noninterest expense, net interest income and noninterest income, which are the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures.
