NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Signature Bank (Nasdaq: SBNY), a New York-based full-service commercial bank, today announced results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2017.
Net income for the 2017 first quarter reached a record $133.9 million, or $2.48 diluted earnings per share, versus $104.0 million, or $1.97 diluted earnings per share, for the 2016 first quarter. The record net income for the 2017 first quarter, versus the comparable quarter last year, is primarily due to an increase in net interest income, fueled by strong deposit and loan growth, as well as net tax adjustments totaling $17.3 million. These factors were partially offset by an increase in non-interest expense.
Net interest income for the 2017 first quarter reached $301.8 million, up $23.4 million, or 8.4 percent, when compared with the 2016 first quarter. This increase is primarily due to growth in average interest-earning assets. Total assets reached $40.27 billion at March 31, 2017, an increase of $5.37 billion, or 15.4 percent, from $34.90 billion at March 31, 2016. Average assets for the 2017 first quarter reached $39.63 billion, an increase of $5.49 billion, or 16.1 percent, compared with the 2016 first quarter.
Deposits for the 2017 first quarter rose $1.07 billion, or 3.4 percent, to $32.94 billion at March 31, 2017. When compared with deposits at March 31, 2016, overall deposit growth for the last twelve months was 17.2 percent, or $4.83 billion. Average deposits for the 2017 first quarter reached $32.26 billion, an increase of $581.4 million, or 1.8 percent.
“We are pleased to begin 2017 by reporting another quarter of record earnings, driven by strong deposit and loan growth. Our results directly reflect the core values on which this institution was built nearly 16 years ago, to which we have remained steadfast since first opening our doors. The structure upon which Signature Bank was founded is straightforward. We continually execute on our sound and secure business plan that emphasizes a single-point-of-contact approach to relationship banking. All the necessary fundamentals have been put in place to allow us to face challenges that may arise, and we are confident in our abilities to successfully address them,” said Joseph J. DePaolo, Co-founder, President and Chief Executive Officer.
“Our deposit-driven, client-centric model allows us to navigate through changing times -- whether it be an uncertain political landscape, enhanced regulatory scrutiny or a choppy interest rate environment -- our dedication to clients clearly demonstrates our capabilities and determination to succeed as a commercial banking leader.
“While this all may sound repetitive, it is the consistency of our model that allows us to continue to attract and retain long-tenured banking professionals who clearly understand how to differentiate through extraordinary service, which is the Bank’s hallmark. As we pass the $40 billion mark in assets, we remain focused on the guiding principles and philosophies that enabled us to get to this place of safety, security, strength and success,” DePaolo concluded.
“The New Year has brought renewed vigor to the economy. Employment growth appears to be gaining traction as business owners contemplate expansion. To this end, our Signature bankers prove to be invaluable resources as clients navigate the uncertainty as to the direction of interest rates and the pace of the economy's expansion,” explained Scott A. Shay, Co-founder and Chairman of the Board.
“We are gratified our Group Directors are the main points of contact when our clients choose to discuss financial issues they may face. Our clients truly understand the benefits of having a trusted banker available to serve as an honest sounding board. This is a major differentiator for Signature Bank clients as they know our colleagues are always thinking about ways to help them become more profitable. We realize if we succeed at that, the relationships with our clients deepen. When our clients prosper, we prosper, which is why we work so hard at ensuring they are well cared for and highly satisfied,” Shay stated.
Capital
The Bank’s Tier 1 leverage, common equity Tier 1 risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, and total risk-based capital ratios were approximately 9.61 percent, 12.05 percent, 12.05 percent, and 13.57 percent, respectively, as of March 31, 2017. Each of these ratios is well in excess of regulatory requirements. The Bank’s strong risk-based capital ratios reflect the relatively low risk profile of the Bank’s balance sheet. The Bank’s tangible common equity ratio remains strong at 9.27 percent. The Bank defines tangible common equity ratio as the ratio of tangible common equity to adjusted tangible assets and calculates this ratio by dividing total consolidated common shareholders’ equity by consolidated total assets.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the 2017 first quarter was $301.8 million, an increase of $23.4 million, or 8.4 percent, versus the same period last year, primarily due to growth in average interest-earning assets. Average interest-earning assets of $39.11 billion for the 2017 first quarter represent an increase of $5.36 billion, or 15.9 percent, from the 2016 first quarter. Yield on interest-earning assets for the 2017 first quarter declined 12 basis points to 3.64 percent, compared to the first quarter of last year.
Average cost of deposits and average cost of funds for the first quarter of 2017 increased by three and seven basis points, to 0.44 percent and 0.56 percent, respectively versus the comparable period a year ago.
Net interest margin on a tax-equivalent basis for the 2017 first quarter was 3.14 percent versus 3.32 percent reported in the 2016 first quarter and 3.14 percent in the 2016 fourth quarter. Excluding loan prepayment penalties in both quarters, linked quarter core margin on a tax-equivalent basis increased three basis points to 3.09 percent.
Provision for Loan Losses
The Bank’s provision for loan losses for the first quarter of 2017 was $19.6 million, compared with $22.2 million for the 2016 fourth quarter and $19.8 million for the 2016 first quarter. The sustained level of provisions continues to be driven by the taxi medallion portfolio.
Net charge offs for the 2017 first quarter were $9.2 million, or 0.13 percent of average loans, on an annualized basis, versus net charge offs of $13.5 million, or 0.19 percent, for the 2016 fourth quarter and $7.8 million, or 0.13 percent, for the 2016 first quarter. The charge off level is predominantly driven by the taxi medallion portfolio.
Non-Interest Income and Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest income for the 2017 first quarter was $9.9 million, up $1.4 million when compared with $8.5 million reported in the 2016 first quarter. The increase was driven by growth in most non-interest income categories, partially offset by an increase in other losses from additional amortization of low income housing tax credit investments.
Non-interest expense for the first quarter of 2017 was $103.2 million, an increase of $10.9 million, or 11.8 percent, versus $92.3 million reported in the 2016 first quarter. The increase was primarily a result of the addition of new private client banking teams, as well as an increase in costs in our risk management and compliance related activities. The Bank also incurred additional FDIC assessment fees.
The Bank’s efficiency ratio remained stable at 33.1 percent for the 2017 first quarter versus 32.2 percent for the comparable period last year.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense includes a $14.4 million net benefit associated with the reduction from the New York City tax base of net interest income earned on qualified affordable housing and low income community related loans in accordance with legislation enacted in 2015 impacting the 2015 and 2016 tax years. This reduction also positively impacted our 2017 annual estimated effective tax rate. In addition, tax expense reflects a benefit of $2.9 million related to the first quarter adoption of the new stock-based compensation standard, ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This discrete item does not impact our 2017 annual estimated effective tax rate.
Loans
Loans, excluding loans held for sale, grew $980.4 million, or 3.4 percent, during the first quarter of 2017 to $30.02 billion, compared with $29.04 billion at December 31, 2016. At March 31, 2017, loans accounted for 74.6 percent of total assets, versus 74.4 percent at the end of the 2016 fourth quarter and 71.8 percent at the end of 2016 first quarter. Average loans, excluding loans held for sale, reached $29.61 billion in the 2017 first quarter, growing $1.36 billion, or 4.8 percent, from the 2016 fourth quarter and $5.21 billion, or 21.4 percent, from the 2016 first quarter. The increase in loans for the first quarter was primarily driven by growth in commercial real estate and multi-family loans.
At March 31, 2017, non-accrual loans were $225.9 million, representing 0.75 percent of total loans and 0.56 percent of total assets, compared with non-accrual loans of $157.6 million, or 0.54 percent of total loans, at December 31, 2016 and $105.0 million, or 0.42 percent of total loans, at March 31, 2016. At the end of the 2017 first quarter, $204.6 million of non-accrual loans were secured by taxi medallions. The ratio of allowance for loan and lease losses to total loans at March 31, 2017 was 0.75 percent, versus 0.74 percent at December 31, 2016 and 0.83 percent at March 31, 2016. Additionally, the ratio of allowance for loan and lease losses to non-accrual loans, or the coverage ratio, was 99 percent for the 2017 first quarter versus 135 percent for the fourth quarter of 2016 and 197 percent for the 2016 first quarter.

| (unaudited) | ||
| Management believes that the presentation of certain non-GAAP financial measures assists investors when comparing results period-to-period in a more consistent manner and provides a better measure of Signature Bank's results. These non-GAAP measures include the Bank's (i) Net income and diluted earnings per share excluding NYC affordable housing and stock-compensation standard tax effects, (ii) tangible common equity ratio, (iIi) efficiency ratio (iv) yield on interest-earning assets, tax-equivalent basis, (v) net interest margin, tax-equivalent basis, and (vi) core net interest margin, tax-equivalent basis excluding loan prepayment penalty income. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP-basis measures and results. We strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. | ||
