Operating net income available to common shareholders for the three months ended December 31, 2024 was $88.9 million, or $0.48 per diluted share(1), a decrease of $2.4 million, or $0.02 per share, in comparison to the third quarter of 2024. Net income available to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $278.5 million, or $1.57 per diluted share, an increase of $4.5 million, and a decrease of $0.07 per diluted share in comparison to the year ended December 31, 2023. Operating net income available to common shareholders for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $328.1 million, or $1.85 per diluted share(1), an increase of $43.1 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, in comparison to the year ended December 31, 2023.
"2024 was a record year for Fulton. Operating diluted earnings per share of $1.85 represents an 8% increase over the prior year," said Curtis J. Myers, Chairman and CEO of Fulton. "We made significant progress, both operationally and strategically, and are now realizing the benefits of these efforts in our results. With a strong quarter and year, we are very excited and well positioned for continued success in 2025."
Financial Highlights
Fourth quarter of 2024 operating results of $0.48 per diluted share were impacted by the following items:
- Solid net interest margin of 3.41%, with a decrease in total cost of funds of 14 basis points compared to the prior quarter.
- Non-interest expense decreased $9.5 million to $216.6 million compared to $226.1 million in the prior quarter. Operating non-interest expense decreased $5.5 million to $190.7 million(1) compared to $196.2 million in the prior quarter.
- Provision for credit losses was $16.7 million resulting in an allowance for credit losses attributable to net loans of $379.2 million, or 1.58% of total net loans at December 31, 2024.
- Average noninterest-bearing deposits increased $62.2 million compared to the prior quarter.
- Common equity tier 1 capital ratio(2) increased to approximately 10.6% compared to 10.5% in the prior quarter.
- Acquisition-related(3) expenses of $9.6 million.
- FultonFirst implementation and asset disposal costs of $10.0 million, including $8.5 million in connection with the Corporation's plan to consolidate fifteen financial centers in early 2025.
The following items highlight notable changes in the components of net income in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to the third quarter of 2024:
- Net interest income totaled $253.7 million, a decrease of $4.4 million, which was largely due to a decline in short-term interest rates. A decrease in interest income on net loans of $15.4 million was partially offset by a decrease in interest expense on interest-bearing liabilities of $8.9 million. An increase in interest income on investment securities of $6.8 million was partially offset by a decrease in interest income on other interest-earning assets of $4.6 million. $1.1 million in fees were realized during the quarter due to early payoffs in the leasing portfolio. Purchase loan mark accretion from loans acquired in the Acquisition was $13.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to $14.5 million in the prior quarter.
- Non-interest income before investment securities gains (losses) was $65.9 million compared to $59.7 million in the prior quarter. The increase was primarily due to a $5.0 million change in the gain on acquisition (net of tax). A $2.7 million reduction in the gain on acquisition (net of tax) was recorded in the fourth quarter of 2024.
- Non-interest expense was $216.6 million compared to $226.1 million in the prior quarter. The decrease was largely due to a $10.9 million decrease in employee salaries and benefits expense, a $4.6 million decrease in acquisition-related expense and a $2.6 million decrease in net occupancy expense, partially offset by $7.8 million of fixed asset and disposal costs in connection with planned FultonFirst financial center consolidations. The decrease in employee salaries and benefits expense was driven by a $4.9 million decrease in employee severance costs related to the FultonFirst initiative, a $3.4 million decrease due to cost savings realized related to the Acquisition and a $2.5 million decrease in employee incentive compensation costs.
Balance Sheet Summary
- Net loans totaled $24.0 billion, a decrease of $131.2 million, compared to $24.2 billion as of September 30, 2024. The decline in balance was due to a net decrease of $168.1 million in commercial and other loans(4), partially offset by an increase of $36.9 million in consumer loans(4).
- Deposits totaled $26.1 billion, a decrease of $22.7 million, compared to $26.2 billion as of September 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease of $136.8 million in time deposits, partially offset by increases of $64.1 million in interest-bearing demand deposits and $51.5 million in savings deposits.
Provision for Credit Losses and Asset Quality
- The provision for credit losses was $16.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, resulting in an allowance for credit losses attributable to net loans of $379.2 million, or 1.58% of total net loans at December 31, 2024, compared to $376.0 million, or 1.56% of total net loans at September 30, 2024.
- Non-performing assets were $222.7 million, or 0.69% of total assets, at December 31, 2024, in comparison to $205.0 million, or 0.64% of total assets, at September 30, 2024.
- Net charge-offs for the fourth quarter of 2024 were 0.22% of total average loans in comparison to 0.18% in the prior quarter.
