Bar Harbor Bankshares Reports First Quarter Results; Increases Dividend 10%

BAR HARBOR, Maine--()--Bar Harbor Bankshares (NYSE American: BHB or the “Company”) reported first quarter 2019 net income of $7.3 million or $0.47 diluted earnings per share. Earnings in the same quarter of 2018 totaled $7.8 million or $0.50 diluted earnings per share.

FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

  • 6% annualized growth in total loans
  • 102% loan to deposit ratio
  • 0.66% non-accruing loans to total loans
  • 0.03% net charge-offs to average loans
  • 11% annualized increase in book value per share

President and Chief Executive Officer, Curtis C. Simard stated, “Earnings for the first quarter were in line with our expectations given the somewhat seasonal nature of our geographic markets and overall economic conditions. The financial performance in the first quarter includes yield expansion, active balance sheet management and continuous execution of our risk centric operating model that balances growth with earnings. Yields from earnings assets increased across the board partially offsetting the rising costs of funds from the December 2018 rate hike. And, we took advantage of the disconnect within funding markets by swapping out short-term borrowings with longer-term fixed interest rates. Our disciplined approach to credit quality and risk mitigation is prevalent as the ratios of non-accruing loans to total loans and net charge-offs to average loans continue to improve on a quarter-over-quarter basis.”

Mr. Simard continued, “Our targeted branch strategy remains on track and we will continue to explore market opportunities within our footprint as it contributes to the Company’s near and long term growth potential. Our Manchester, New Hampshire branch has already started to capture significant market share and we are happy to announce the redesign of our Newport, New Hampshire location, which will create a unique and fulfilling experience for our customers, the community, and our employees. Newport has been an important cornerstone to our mortgage banking operations and is home to our consolidated call center.

Mr. Simard further stated, “With our strong capital position and consistent organic growth in equity, we are excited to announce an increase in our quarterly cash dividend by 10%. The new dividend yield along with continuous double digit growth in book value per share and the previously announced 5% share buyback program is continued proof of our commitment to building shareholder value.”

Mr. Simard concluded, “As we look to the rest of 2019, we are focused on our customers and sales culture that is being driven at every level of leadership. It’s a sales culture with an eye towards repeatable performance and thoughtful solutions to the challenges our customers and prospects face. We have a team who greatly believes in itself and this Company, which ultimately drives shareholder value.”

DIVIDEND INCREASED
On April 16, 2019, the Board of Directors voted to increase the quarterly cash dividend by $0.02, or 10%, to $0.22 per share to shareholders of record at the close of business May 14, 2019, payable on June 14, 2019. The dividend equates to a 3.4% annualized yield based on a $25.87 closing price at the end of the first quarter 2019.

FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets were $3.6 billion at the end of the first quarter 2019, up $20.7 million from the fourth quarter and $118.2 million from the first quarter 2018. Loan balances in the first quarter 2019 were $2.5 billion increasing $36.7 million from the fourth quarter or 6% annualized. Loan growth is attributed to our expanded branch model and the momentum of our sales culture.

The first quarter 2019 allowance for loan losses to total loans ratio remains strong at 0.55% with a coverage ratio to non-accruing loans at 84%, up from 76% as of year-end. Non-accruing loans decreased $1.6 million in the first quarter 2019 with improvements across most categories. These improvements decreased the ratio of non-accruing loans to average loans to 0.66% from 0.73% at year-end 2018. This positive trend was also seen in the ratio of past due accounts as a percentage of average loans.

The Company’s book value per share was $24.54 at the end of the first quarter 2019 compared to $23.87 at year-end 2018, representing an 11% annualized growth rate. Tangible book value per share (non-GAAP measure) was $17.63 at the end of the first quarter 2019 compared to $16.94 at year-end 2018. Lower long-term rates had a positive impact on the fair value adjustment in the securities portfolio. The fair value adjustment was a loss of $1.8 million in the first quarter 2019 compared $8.7 million in the fourth quarter 2018.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net income in the first quarter 2019 was $7.3 million, or $0.47 per share, compared to $7.8 million, or $0.50 per share, in the same quarter of 2018. Interest income was up 8% to $33.2 million as quarterly yields on earning assets expanded 27 basis points on a year-over-year basis to 4.19%. Net interest margin in the first quarter 2019 decreased to 2.77% from 2.97% in the same period of 2018. The decrease reflects several short-term interest rate hikes in 2018 and the continued flattening of the yield curve into 2019. We remain focused on balance sheet strategies such as the investment portfolio remix seen in the fourth quarter 2018 and current quarter brokered certificate of deposit hedge, which helps to manage interest rate risk. Our loan to deposit ratio increased to 102% in the first quarter 2019 as deposits are traditionally lower in the beginning of the year.

The first quarter 2019 provision for loan losses decreased to $324 thousand from $795 thousand in the same quarter 2018. We continue to have a positive quarterly trend in both recoveries and charged-off loans. The net charged-off loans to average loans ratio remained low at a 0.03% annualized rate for the first quarter 2019. Asset quality continues to improve with non-accruing loans to total loans at 0.66% in the first quarter 2019 compared to 0.83% in the same quarter of 2018.

Non-interest income and non-interest expense remained relatively flat for the first quarter of 2019 compared to first quarter of 2018. The reduction in salary and benefit expenses were offset by increase in occupancy and equipment based on the new locations in Manchester, New Hampshire and Portland, Maine placed in service during the fourth quarter of 2018.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
This document contains certain non-GAAP financial measures in addition to results presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). These non-GAAP measures are intended to provide the reader with additional supplemental perspectives on operating results, performance trends, and financial condition. Non-GAAP financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP measures; they should be read and used in conjunction with the Company's GAAP financial information. A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP measures is provided below. In all cases, it should be understood that non-GAAP measures do not depict amounts that accrue directly to the benefit of shareholders. An item which management excludes when computing non-GAAP core earnings can be of substantial importance to the Company's results for any particular quarter or year. The Company's non-GAAP core earnings information set forth is not necessarily comparable to non- GAAP information which may be presented by other companies. Each non-GAAP measure used by the Company in this report as supplemental financial data should be considered in conjunction with the Company's GAAP financial information.

The Company utilizes the non-GAAP measure of core earnings in evaluating operating trends, including components for core revenue and expense. These measures exclude amounts which the Company views as unrelated to its normalized operations, including securities gains/losses, acquisition costs, restructuring costs, legal settlements, and systems conversion costs. Non-GAAP adjustments are presented net of an adjustment for income tax expense.

The Company also calculates core earnings per share based on its measure of core earnings. The Company views these amounts as important to understanding its operating trends, particularly due to the impact of accounting standards related to acquisition activity. Analysts also rely on these measures in estimating and evaluating the Company's performance. Management also believes that the computation of non-GAAP core earnings and core earnings per share may facilitate the comparison of the Company to other companies in the financial services industry. The Company also adjusts certain equity related measures to exclude intangible assets due to the importance of these measures to the investment community.
