IBERIABANK Corporation Reports Fourth Quarter 2007 Results

LAFAYETTE, LOUISIANA — IBERIABANK Corporation (NASDAQ: IBKC), the holding company of the 120-year-old IBERIABANK (www.iberiabank.com) and Pulaski Bank and Trust Company (www.pulaskibank.com), announced earnings of $10.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2007, up 13% compared to the same period in 2006 and down 17% compared to the third quarter of 2007 (“linked quarter basis”). In the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company reported fully diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) of $0.79, down 10% compared to $0.87 in the same quarter of 2006, and down 16% on a linked quarter basis. The consensus analyst EPS estimate for the fourth quarter of 2007 for the Company was $0.80 as reported by First Call.

The reported EPS of $0.79 includes merger-related costs and the impact of recent accounting changes, which management has consistently excluded from its annual EPS guidance. The Company incurred in the fourth quarter of 2007 merger-related and other severance costs totaling $0.5 million on a pre-tax basis, the aggregate negative impact of which was $0.02 per fully diluted share on an after-tax basis. In addition, the Company incurred $0.4 million in pre-tax expense associated with SFAS 133 and SFAS 123R, or $0.02 per share on an after-tax basis. Excluding these merger-related and severance costs and changes in accounting treatment, the adjusted (non-GAAP) EPS figure was $0.83.

Highlights For The Quarter Ended December 31, 2007

 

   

Loans. Average loans increased $109 million, or 3%, between the third and fourth quarters of 2007. On a period-end basis, total loans were $3.4 billion, an increase of $123 million, or 4%, between September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2007.

 

   

Deposits. Average deposits increased $48 million, or 1%, between the third and fourth quarters of 2007. Period-end deposits were $3.5 billion, an increase of $35 million, or 1%, between September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2007.

 

   

Net Interest Income. Average earning asset growth of $67 million, or 2%, combined with a six basis point improvement in the tax equivalent net interest margin (“margin”) to 3.18%, resulted in a $1.2 million, or 4%, increase in tax equivalent net interest income on a linked quarter basis.

 

   

Capital Strength. The Company completed a $25 million trust preferred securities offering on November 9, 2007 at a rate equal to three-month LIBOR plus 2.64%. At December 31, 2007, the Company reported a tier 1 leverage ratio of 7.42%, up from 6.79% at September 30, 2007.

 

   

Branches. Total loan balances at the 14 branches opened since August 2005 under the Company’s branch expansion initiative were $78 million at December 31, 2007, up 15% compared to September 30, 2007. Similarly, aggregate deposit balances in these branches totaled $94

million at December 31, 2007, up 22% compared to September 30, 2007. The net after-tax cost of the branches was $0.05 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2007, unchanged compared to the third quarter of 2007.

 

   

Expense Management. Since April 1, 2007, the Company has reduced staffing by 145 full time equivalent employees. This equated to a run rate savings of approximately $6.2 million in annual compensation costs, or approximately 10.4% of total compensation costs. The Company achieved the targeted run rate savings associated with the Arkansas acquisitions that were completed in the first quarter of 2007.

Developments Previously Disclosed On January 8, 2008

 

   

Credit Card Receivable Sale. On January 4, 2008, the Company recorded a pre-tax gain of $6.9 million, or $0.32 EPS, on the sale of $30.4 million in credit card receivables (22.7% premium), consistent with past practices at Pulaski. The Company expects an annualized reduction in EPS after the sale of approximately $0.04 annually. The Company anticipates no significant change in its current national credit card market origination operations.

 

   

Nonperforming Assets (“NPAs”). NPAs were $48.2 million at December 31, 2007, up from $28.0 million at September 30, 2007. The increase in NPAs during the fourth quarter was primarily due to construction-related loans originated by Pulaski in the Northwest Arkansas and Memphis areas. The remainder of the IBERIABANK and Pulaski loan portfolios continued to perform exceptionally well during the fourth quarter of 2007.

 

   

Loan Loss Provision. A loan loss provision of $3.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 increased the ratio of loan loss reserves to total loans from 1.08% at September 30, 2007, to 1.12% at December 31, 2007.

 

   

Sale of Investment Securities. The Company sold $47.8 million in investment securities during the fourth quarter of 2007, resulting in a pre-tax gain of $0.6 million. Exclusive of the gain in the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company projects a positive pre-tax impact of $0.2 million over the next 16 months as a result of this action.

The following table provides a non-GAAP reconciliation of net income and fully diluted earnings per share adjusting for the merger-related and other severance costs that were incurred in the most recent four quarters and the financial impact of recent accounting changes. Management believes this non-GAAP table provides a useful measure of operating earnings trends.

Total loans increased $123 million, or 4%, from September 30, 2007 to December 31, 2007. Loan growth at IBERIABANK was partially offset by pay-downs in construction and seasonal agricultural-related credits in the markets served by Pulaski. During the fourth quarter of 2007, commercial loans climbed $115 million, or 6%, consumer loans increased $13 million, or 2%, residential mortgage loans decreased $5 million, or 1%.

As stated in previous releases, during the acquisition due diligence process at Pulaski, issues were identified associated with some builder loans in Pulaski’s markets. The Company continued to pursue the strategy Pulaski commenced in May 2006 to compress the construction portfolio in Northwest Arkansas, Little Rock, and Memphis. The Pulaski construction portfolio totaled $87 million at acquisition in February 2007, and has since declined to $62 million at December 31, 2007, including a $6 million decline within the last 90 days as homes were sold and loans continued to be paid down. The portfolio contains 214 completed houses ($30.4 million), 87 houses less than 100% completed ($17.8 million), 209 lot loans ($8.8 million), and only three development loans ($4.8 million). The average funded amount is $154,172 per loan. At December 31, 2007, Pulaski’s builder construction portfolio accounted for only 7% of Pulaski’s loan portfolio and less than 2% of the total loan portfolio at the consolidated entity.

The builder construction loan portfolio in Northwest Arkansas and Memphis exhibited further credit deterioration during the fourth quarter of 2007 as a result of slow housing conditions. As a result of these conditions, the Company placed 31% of Pulaski’s builder loans on nonaccrual status and significantly reduced the estimated appraised values associated with this portfolio. The Company provided additional reserves during the quarter to account for the potential credit risk associated with these loans. The Company believes the combination of reserves and established impairments are adequate to account for the current risk associated with the residential construction loan portfolio.

The Company’s commercial real estate (“CRE”) loan portfolio, excluding the Pulaski builder portfolio, is comprised of credits primarily in the Company’s banking markets. The average loan size in this portfolio is $405,000. Approximately 56% of the CRE portfolio is based in southern Louisiana and 21% in northern Louisiana. Given the favorable economic conditions in this area, only 0.84% of the CRE portfolio is considered nonperforming. The latest statistics from the U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics (“BLS”) provide supporting evidence of this view. According to the BLS statistics, of the 369 Metropolitan Statistical Areas (“MSAs”) nationwide, the Lafayette MSA reported the sixth lowest level of unemployment and four other southern Louisiana MSAs ranked in the most favorable 10% of nationwide MSAs. Elevated energy prices provide support to many of the local economies in southern Louisiana.

At December 31, 2007, approximately 70% of the Company’s loan portfolio had fixed interest rates. Eliminating fixed rate loans that mature within a one-year time frame reduces this figure to 59%. Approximately 82% of the Company’s time deposit base reprices within the next 12 months. The Company’s interest rate risk modeling at December 31, 2007 indicates the Company is slightly liability sensitive. A 100 basis point instantaneous and parallel upward shift in interest rates would be estimated to decrease net interest income over 12 months by approximately 0.8%. Similarly, a 100 basis point decrease in interest rates would be expected to increase net interest income by approximately 2.0%. The influence of using forward curves at December 31, 2007 as the basis for projecting the interest rate environment would have approximately a 3.0% favorable impact on net interest income compared to the scenario of no change in interest rates.

On a linked quarter basis, the yield on average total loans decreased 10 basis points to 6.87%. On this basis, the yield on commercial loans decreased 18 basis points during the fourth quarter of 2007, while mortgage and consumer loan yields remained essentially stable.

The investment portfolio volume decreased $40 million, or 5%, to $805 million at December 31, 2007. The investment portfolio equated to 16% of total assets at December 31, 2007, compared to 18% at September 30, 2007. The Company’s investment portfolio duration lengthened slightly during the quarter. At December 31, 2007, the portfolio had a modified duration of 3.1 years, compared to 2.9 years at September 30, 2007. The Company’s investment portfolio has very limited extension risk. Based on current projected speeds and other assumptions, the portfolio is expected to generate approximately $200 million in cash flows, or about 25% of the portfolio, over the next 12 months. The portfolio had an unrealized gain of approximately $9 million at December 31, 2007, compared to an unrealized loss of $2 million at September 30, 2007. The average yield on investment securities decreased two basis points on a linked quarter basis, to 5.29% in the fourth quarter of 2007. The Company holds in its investment portfolio agency and municipal securities. The Company holds no equity securities, corporate bonds, trust preferred securities, collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”), collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), hedge fund investments, or structured investment vehicles (“SIVs”) in its investment portfolio.

Recent financial media attention has focused on downgrades in mortgage-related investments possessing significant amounts of collateral that is considered “sub-prime” (higher credit risk), “Alt-A” (low documentation), and/or “second lien” by the large rating agencies. At December 31, 2007, the Company had no investment instruments containing material amounts of these types of collateral. The Company considers its mortgage origination business exposure to the sub-prime and Alt-A segments as extremely low. Consistent with seasonal patterns, the Company originated $212 million in mortgage loans during the fourth quarter of 2007, down 15% compared to the third quarter of 2007. Approximately 0.2% of the Company’s production was considered sub-prime, 3.5% was designated Alt-A, and 1.2% of originations were “jumbo” mortgages. Loan refinancing accounted for approximately 27% of mortgage loan originations in the fourth quarter of 2007, compared to 21% in the third quarter of 2007. The Company sold $208 million in mortgage loans to investors during this period, down 18% compared to $254 million in third quarter of 2007.

Total deposits at December 31, 2007 increased $35 million, or 1%, compared to September 30, 2007. During the fourth quarter, deposits at IBERIABANK increased $13 million, or 1% between September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2007, while at Pulaski deposits increased $16 million, or 2%. The Company’s noninterest bearing deposits increased $9 million and interest bearing deposits increased $27 million, or 1%. The cost of interest bearing deposits in the fourth quarter of 2007 was 3.52%, a decrease of nine basis points on a linked quarter basis. The cost of total interest bearing liabilities decreased 12 basis points during this period as the cost of short-term borrowings decreased 47 basis points and long-term borrowing costs declined three basis points. The Company issued $25 million of trust preferred securities on November 9, 2007 at a rate of three-month LIBOR plus 2.64%. The estimated marginal impact of the issuance of these securities was a one basis point increase in the cost of interest bearing liabilities and a one basis point reduction in the margin in the fourth quarter of 2007.

Operating Results

Tax-equivalent net interest income increased $1.2 million, or 4% on a linked quarter basis, driven by average earning asset growth of $67 million, or 2%, and an improvement in the margin. On a linked quarter basis, a four basis point decrease in earning asset yield was more than offset by an 12 basis point decline in the cost of interest bearing liabilities. On a linked quarter average balance basis, growth in average commercial and consumer loans of $80 million and $20 million, respectively, was partially offset by reduced average investment securities ($17 million) and mortgage loans held for sale ($28 million). Average noninterest and interest bearing deposits climbed $11 million and $3 million, respectively, during the quarter. The Company’s net interest spread improved seven basis points and the margin increased six basis points on a linked quarter basis. The Company’s margin was 3.18% in the fourth quarter of 2007 and 3.15% in the month of December 2007. Interest reversals on the additional nonperforming assets during the fourth quarter negatively impacted pre-tax net interest income by $0.3 million. Excluding the interest reversal on the additional NPAs, the adjusted margin figures were 3.20% in the fourth quarter and 3.23% in the month of December.

Noninterest income in the fourth quarter of 2007 remained stable on a linked quarter basis. Gains on the sale of mortgage loans totaled $4.3 million, down $0.5 million, or 11%, on a linked quarter basis as mortgage loans sold into the secondary market decreased by 18% while sales spreads improved. The Company’s mortgage origination business was unseasonably brisk near the end of the fourth quarter and in January 2008. Title insurance revenues totaled $4.4 million during the quarter, a decrease of $0.6 million, or 11% on a linked quarter basis as stronger commercial-related orders only partially offset seasonally slow residential orders. Brokerage commissions totaled $1.5 million in the fourth quarter, up $0.3 million, or 20%, on a linked quarter basis. Service charges on deposit accounts and security gains each increased $0.3 million on a linked quarter basis. The Company recorded $0.6 million in security gains associated with the investment security transactions disclosed in the previous press release. During the fourth quarter of 2007, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $0.3 million associated with the loss of the credit enhancement provided by a monoline insurer of a municipal bond held by the Company.

Noninterest expense decreased $0.3 million, or 1%, on a linked quarter basis, as a result of a few offsetting factors. First, salary and benefit costs declined $0.6 million, or 3%, as a result of lower mortgage-related commissions, salaries from reduced staffing, and bonus accruals. Consistent with shareholder focus, the executive management team of the Company received no bonus payments for 2007 performance. Second, the Company incurred $0.2 million greater occupancy and equipment costs on a linked quarter basis due to the accumulated cost of new facilities and improvements. Third, the Company’s computer service cost increased $0.4 million during the fourth quarter due primarily to merger related costs. In aggregate, other noninterest expenses were relatively unchanged on a linked quarter basis. The Company has achieved the targeted salary and benefits expense savings associated with the Arkansas acquisitions.

Net income in the fourth quarter of 2007 totaled $10.1 million, down 17% from $12.1 million on a linked quarter basis, and up 13% compared to one year ago. Return on average assets (“ROA”) was 0.83% for the fourth quarter of 2007. Return on average equity (“ROE”) was 8.13%, and return on average tangible equity was 17.41%. The primary reason for the decline in earnings on a linked quarter basis were the previously disclosed additional charge-offs and loan loss reserve addition associated with Pulaski’s builder construction loans.

Asset Quality

The Company experienced continued strength in credit quality statistics at the legacy IBERIABANK franchise and market-driven deterioration in the acquired builder construction portfolio at the Pulaski franchise, primarily in Northwest Arkansas and the Memphis area.

The Company reported net charge-offs totaling $1.0 million, up $0.6 million on a linked quarter basis. The ratio of net charge-offs to average loans was 0.12% in the fourth quarter of 2007, compared to 0.05% in the third quarter of 2007. The Company reported a $3.6 million loan loss provision in the fourth quarter of 2007, up from a negative provision of $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2007. In each of these quarters, $1.4 million in loan loss provision was associated with favorable loan growth during those respective periods. The Company incurred $1.2 million in loan loss provision in the fourth quarter of 2007 associated with the previously disclosed credit concerns. Management considers the loan loss reserve adequate to absorb credit losses inherent in the loan portfolio.

NPAs amounted to $48 million at December 31, 2007, or 0.98% of total assets, up $20 million, or 72%, compared to $28 million, or 0.58% of total assets, at September 30, 2007. Pulaski accounted for 86% of the NPAs at December 31, 2007. Loans past due 30 days or more (including nonaccruing loans) represented 1.66% of total loans at December 31, 2007, compared to 1.10% of total loans at September 30, 2007.

Capital Position

Average shareholders’ equity increased $15 million on a linked quarter basis. At December 31, 2007, shareholders’ equity was $498 million, an increase of $16 million, or 3%, compared to September 30, 2007. The Company’s equity-to-assets ratio was 10.13% at December 31, 2007, compared to 10.00% at September 30, 2007. Book value per share and tangible book value per share each increased significantly between September 30, 2007 and December 31, 2007. At December 31, 2007, book value was $38.99, up $1.25 per share, or 3%, compared to September 30, 2007. Similarly, tangible book value per share climbed $1.30, or 7%, over that period to $19.06. Tier 1 leverage ratio was 7.42% at December 31, 2007, up 63 basis points compared to September 30, 2007. Similarly, the total risk-based capital ratio was 10.37% at year-end 2007, up 74 basis points compared to September 30, 2007. The improvement in the regulatory capital ratios was driven by the issuance of $25 million in trust preferred securities on November 9, 2007.

On April 25, 2007, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized a share repurchase program of up to 300,000 shares of the Company’s outstanding common stock, or approximately 2.3% of total shares outstanding. Stock repurchases under this program will be made from time to time, on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions, at the discretion of the management of the Company. The timing of these repurchases will depend on market conditions and other requirements. The Company purchased no shares during the fourth quarter of 2007. Approximately 149,000 shares remain to be purchased under the current authorized program.

On December 17, 2007, the Company announced the declaration of a quarterly cash dividend of $0.34 per share, an increase of 6% compared to the same quarter last year. This dividend level equated to an annualized dividend rate of $1.36 per share and an indicated dividend yield of 3.32%, based on the closing stock price of the Company on January 22, 2007 of $40.92 per share. Based on that closing stock price, the Company’s common stock traded at a price-to-earnings ratio of 10.7 times the current average consensus analyst estimate of $3.82 per fully diluted EPS for 2008. This price also equates to 1.05 times December 31, 2007 book value per share of $38.99.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with GAAP. The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in their analysis of the Company’s performance. These measures typically adjust GAAP performance measures to exclude the effects of the amortization of intangibles and include the tax benefit associated with revenue items that are tax-exempt. Since the presentation of these GAAP performance measures and their impact differ between companies, management believes presentations of these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the operating results of the Company’s core businesses. These non-GAAP disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.

Forward Looking Statements

To the extent that statements in this press release relate to future plans, objectives, financial results or performance of IBERIABANK Corporation, these statements are deemed to be forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements, which are based on management’s current information, estimates and assumptions and the current economic environment, are generally identified by the use of the words “plan”, “believe”, “expect”, “intend”, “anticipate”, “estimate”, “project” or similar expressions. IBERIABANK Corporation’s actual strategies and results in future periods may differ materially from those currently expected due to various risks and uncertainties.

Actual results could differ materially because of factors such as our ability to execute our growth strategy, risks relating to the integration of acquired companies that have previously been operated separately, credit risk of our customers, sufficiency of our allowance for loan losses, changes in interest rates, reliance on the services of executive management, competition for loans, deposits and investment dollars, reputational risk and social factors, changes in government regulations and legislation, geographic concentration of our markets, rapid changes in the financial services industry, and hurricanes and other adverse weather events. These and other factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from these forward-looking statements are discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, available at the SEC’s website, www.sec.gov, and the Company’s website, www.iberiabank.com.
