TUPELO, Miss. and HOUSTON , July 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Cadence Bank (NYSE:CADE) (the Company), today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Highlights for the second quarter of 2022 included (as compared to the linked quarter unless noted otherwise):

Achieved meaningful growth in quarterly net income available to common shareholders of $124.6 million, or $0.68 per diluted common share, and adjusted net income available to common shareholders of $134.2 million, or $0.73 per diluted common share, representing quarterly increases in earnings per diluted share of 13.3% and 12.3% respectively.
Reported $176.7 million in adjusted pre-tax pre-provision net revenue (PPNR), up 10.2% and improving to 1.51% of average assets on an annualized basis.
Continued improvement in other profitability metrics, including an adjusted return on average tangible common equity of 19.50% for the second quarter.
Generated net organic loan growth of $1.2 billion for the quarter, or 17.3% on an annualized basis. Year-to-date, loans have grown $1.5 billion, or 11.0% annualized. Total deposits declined $378.9 million during the quarter, but have increased $371.4 million year-to-date, or 1.9% on an annualized year-to-date basis.
Net interest margin improved notably to 3.06%, up 14 basis points (and up 20 basis points excluding the impact of purchase accounting accretion), driven primarily by increasing new and floating loan yields, balance sheet mix changes resulting from net loan growth and minimal increases in deposit costs.
Additional improvement in credit quality metrics included net recoveries of $1.4 million and an 11.4% decline in total non-performing assets; recorded a quarterly provision for credit losses of $1 million.
Operating efficiency continued to improve, which is reflected in a decline in the adjusted efficiency ratio to 60.5% for the second quarter compared to 63.5% for the first quarter of 2022.

"The Company's financial results for the second quarter reflect key fundamental successes across virtually all aspects of our business, highlighted by adjusted earnings of $0.73 per diluted common share," remarked Dan Rollins, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. "Our bankers' efforts and the strength of our footprint resulted in quarterly net loan growth across nearly all of our markets and business lines. As expected, given the increasing rate environment, we reported considerable improvement in our net interest margin as well as meaningful growth in our net interest income. Credit quality continues to remain exceptionally strong as evidenced by our fifth consecutive quarter of net recoveries and additional declines in total non-performing assets."

Rollins continued, "Our results for the quarter also reflect a decline in adjusted expense which, combined with revenue growth, resulted in the adjusted efficiency ratio declining by 300 basis points to 60.5% for the quarter. Finally, from a capital management perspective, we repurchased 1.0 million shares of Company common stock during the quarter while continuing to maintain strong regulatory capital metrics."

Earnings Summary

Year-over-year comparisons were impacted by the merger with Cadence Bank, N.A. in the fourth quarter of 2021. See "RECENT MERGER TRANSACTIONS" in this release for more information.

The Company reported net income available to common shareholders of $124.6 million, or $0.68 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2022, compared with net income available to common shareholders of $73.2 million, or $0.69 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2021 and net income available to common shareholders of $112.6 million, or $0.60 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2022. Adjusted net income available to common shareholders was $134.2 million, or $0.73 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2022, compared with $89.2 million, or $0.84 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2021 and $121.6 million, or $0.65 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2022.

The Company reported adjusted PPNR of $176.7 million, or 1.51% of average assets on an annualized basis, for the second quarter of 2022 compared to $118.0 million, or 1.77% of average assets on an annualized basis, for the second quarter of 2021 and $160.4 million, or 1.36% of average assets on an annualized basis, for the first quarter of 2022.

The meaningful growth in adjusted net income and PPNR during the quarter was due to a 4.2% increase in net interest revenue reflecting a higher interest rate environment, loan growth and a 2.0% decrease in non-interest expense, partially offset by a 2.5% lower noninterest revenue due to movement in net MSR valuation.

Net Interest Revenue

Net interest revenue was $324.8 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $180.2 million for the second quarter of 2021 and $311.8 million for the first quarter of 2022, an increase of $12.9 million or 4.2% from linked quarter. The fully taxable equivalent (FTE) net interest margin was 3.06% for the second quarter of 2022, compared with 2.99% for the second quarter of 2021 and 2.92% for the first quarter of 2022.

Net interest revenue for the second quarter of 2022 included $11.7 million in accretion revenue related to acquired loans and leases, adding approximately 11 basis points to the net interest margin. Accretion declined $6.0 million from $17.7 million for the first quarter of 2022, which added approximately 17 basis points to the first quarter 2022 net interest margin. Excluding the impact of accretion, the linked quarter net interest margin increased by 20 basis points.

The increase in net interest revenue in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the linked quarter reflected meaningful improvement in loan and securities yields as well as continued deployment of cash and cash flow from maturing securities into loan growth. The balance sheet remains asset sensitive, with approximately 24% of loans floating (repricing within 30 days) and another 44% of loans variable as of June 30, 2022.

Yields on net loans, loans held for sale, and leases excluding accretion, were 4.12% for the second quarter of 2022, up 16 basis points from 3.96% for the first quarter of 2022, while yields on total interest earning assets were 3.29% for the second quarter of 2022, up 19 basis points from 3.10% for the first quarter of 2022. The average cost of deposits remained well managed, increasing only 2 basis points to 0.17% for the second quarter of 2022, compared with 0.15% for the first quarter of 2022.

Balance Sheet Activity

Loans and leases, net of unearned income, continued to reflect solid growth, increasing $1.2 billion during the second quarter, or 17.3% annualized, and $1.5 billion year-to-date, or 11.0% annualized, to $28.4 billion. Total deposits declined $378.9 million during the second quarter to $40.8 billion, but have grown $371.4 million year-to-date, or 1.9% annualized. Loan growth for the quarter was spread across multiple geographies and portfolios including commercial and industrial, commercial real estate, community banking and residential mortgage. The decline in deposits during the quarter was due to public fund and municipal balances that increased during the first quarter and declined in the second quarter, with the segment flat on total deposits since year-end 2021. The second quarter of 2022 ended with a loan to deposit ratio of 70.6% and securities to total assets of 28.2%, reflecting improved mix shift while maintaining continued strong balance sheet liquidity. Noninterest bearing deposits represented 34.9% of total deposits at the end of the second quarter of 2022, relatively stable compared to 35.6% at March 31, 2022.

Provision for Credit Losses and Allowance for Credit Losses

Credit quality metrics for the second quarter of 2022 continue to improve as reflected by the fifth consecutive quarter of net recoveries as well as successive declines in total non-performing assets.

Total non-performing assets declined $16.8 million, or 11.4%, in the second quarter from $147.7 million at March 31, 2022 to $130.8 million at June 30, 2022. Total non-performing loans and leases were $116.4 million at June 30, 2022, or 0.41% of total net loans and leases, representing a decline of $2.8 million or 2.4%, from the March 31, 2022 balance of $119.3 million, or 0.44% of total net loans and leases. Other real estate owned and other repossessed assets also declined to $14.4 million at June 30, 2022, a decrease of $14.0 million or 49.3% from the March 31, 2022 balance of $28.4 million.

Net recoveries for the second quarter of 2022 were $1.4 million, or 0.02% of net loans and leases on an annualized basis, compared with net recoveries of $1.8 million for the second quarter of 2021 and net recoveries of $0.4 million for the first quarter of 2022. The provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 2022 was $1 million, compared with a provision for credit losses of $11.5 million for the second quarter of 2021 and no recorded provision for the first quarter of 2022. The $11.5 million provision for the second quarter of 2021 was primarily associated with day one accounting provision requirements for loans acquired during the quarter. The allowance for credit losses was $440.1 million, or 1.55% of net loans and leases at June 30, 2022, compared with $438.7 million, or 1.61% of net loans and leases at March 31, 2022.

Noninterest Revenue

Noninterest revenue was $125.2 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared with $101.9 million for the second quarter of 2021 and $128.4 million for the first quarter of 2022. The linked quarter decline was driven primarily by a lower mortgage servicing rights valuation adjustment, partially offset by strong credit card, debit card, and merchant fees as well as insurance commission revenue.

While mortgage revenue has been impacted due to the rising rate environment, our broader footprint has supported continued growth in mortgage origination volume. Second quarter of 2022 mortgage origination was $913.0 million, up from both $906.4 million for the second quarter of 2021 and $803.9 million for the first quarter of 2022. Mortgage production and servicing revenue totaled $6.7 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared with $11.0 million for the second quarter of 2021 and $7.7 million for the first quarter of 2022. The mortgage servicing rights valuation adjustment was $4.7 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared with a negative $1.9 million for the second quarter of 2021 and $14.0 million for the first quarter of 2022 with the variances due to increased interest rates and a higher proportion of the asset being hedged during the second quarter of 2022.

Insurance commission revenue again reflected strong performance at $40.0 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared with $36.1 million for the second quarter of 2021 and $35.7 million for the first quarter of 2022. The insurance pricing market has remained firm and the Company continues to experience high customer retention rates. The Company completed the acquisition of Wall 2 Wall Benefit Services, a Houston, TX based firm specializing in insurance and employee benefit services, during the second quarter of 2022.

Credit card, debit card and merchant fee revenue was $16.6 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared with $11.3 million for the first quarter of 2022 reflecting an annual incentive payment from our card vendor as well as an annual true-up of revenue based on improved contractual revenue share in 2022. Other noninterest revenue was $16.4 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared with $19.1 million for the first quarter of 2022 due in part to a purchase accounting adjustment associated with the day one fair value of unfunded commitments acquired in the legacy Cadence transaction.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2022 was $285.9 million, compared with $174.0 million for the second quarter of 2021 and $291.7 million for the first quarter of 2022. Adjusted noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2022 was $271.8 million, compared with $164.0 million for the second quarter of 2021 and $281.0 million for the first quarter of 2022. The adjusted efficiency ratio was 60.5% for the second quarter of 2022, which represents improvement compared to the 63.5% for the first quarter of 2022. The decline in adjusted noninterest expense compared to the linked quarter included a reduction in compensation related items including payroll taxes, 401(k) match, and health insurance expense as well as intangible amortization expense as we finalized acquired intangible asset valuations.

Adjusted noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2022 excludes $13.3 million in total merger related expenses, which includes merger expense shown as a separate line item on the income statement as well as incremental merger related expenses that are included in the respective expense categories. Merger expenses represent costs to complete the merger with no future benefit, while incremental merger related expenses represent costs to complete the merger for which the entity receives a future benefit. Merger expense was $7.3 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared with $10.0 million for the second quarter of 2021 and $4.0 million for the first quarter of 2022. Merger expense for the second quarter of 2022 was comprised primarily of conversion related expenses as well as compensation related items. Incremental merger related expenses for the second quarter of 2022 totaled $6.1 million compared to $6.6 million in the prior quarter and included primarily employee retention and marketing related expenses.

Capital Management

Total shareholders' equity was $4.44 billion at June 30, 2022 compared with $3.07 billion at June 30, 2021 and $4.64 billion at March 31, 2022. The decline in the linked quarter is primarily due to a decline in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) ("AOCI") resulting from an increase in unrealized losses in the available-for-sale securities portfolio, driven by increases in longer-term interest rates in the quarter.

Estimated regulatory capital ratios remain solid at June 30, 2022 including Common Equity Tier 1 capital of 10.39%, Tier 1 capital of 10.86%, Total risk-based capital of 13.05%, and Tier 1 leverage capital of 8.35%.

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company repurchased 1.0 million shares of its common stock pursuant to its share repurchase program. The company has 3.9 million shares remaining on its current share repurchase authorization which will expire December 30, 2022. Outstanding company shares were 182.5 million shares as of June 30, 2022, a reduction of 5.9 million shares since December 31, 2021.

Summary

Rollins concluded, "Our financial results continue to contribute to the energy and optimism around our Company, and we are reaching milestones daily toward fully integrating our two legacy companies. Last week, we publicly revealed several additional aspects of our branding for the new Cadence Bank, which complement our new logo released earlier this year. The branding speaks to serving our customers with capabilities and opportunities resulting from two great companies coming together. We look forward to the full rebranding of our Company during the fourth quarter upon completion of our core systems conversion. We have a lot to be excited about at Cadence Bank, with this quarter's financial performance certainly being a significant part of that."

RECENT MERGER TRANSACTION

As of October 29, 2021, legacy Cadence reported total assets of $18.8 billion, total loans of $11.6 billion and total deposits of $16.3 billion.
