BankUnited, Inc. Reports Third Quarter 2023 Results

MIAMI LAKES, Fla.--()--BankUnited, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE: BKU) today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

"This quarter we made significant progress on key strategic priorities. Margin, the funding mix, asset mix, capital and liquidity all improved, while continuing to prepare for a possible economic slowdown," said Rajinder Singh, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2023, the Company reported net income of $47.0 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, compared to $58.0 million, or $0.78 per diluted share for the immediately preceding quarter ended June 30, 2023 and $87.9 million, or $1.12 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. Earnings for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 were impacted by an increase in the provision for credit losses, the most significant driver of which was the impact of a less favorable economic forecast, while annualized net charge-offs remained low at 0.07%. For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the Company reported net income of $157.9 million or $2.11 per diluted share compared to $220.8 million or $2.71 per diluted share for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.

Quarterly Highlights

  • We gained momentum executing on near-term strategic priorities this quarter:

    • The net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, expanded this quarter to 2.56% from 2.47% for the immediately preceding quarter.

    • Non-brokered deposits grew by $484 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Total deposits grew by $274 million.

    • Non-interest bearing deposits grew by $52 million for the quarter, remaining consistent at 28% of total deposits at both September 30, 2023 and June 30, 2023.

    • Residential loans declined by $225 million and securities declined by $257 million for the quarter, while our core C&I and commercial real estate portfolios grew by a net $147 million.

    • FHLB advances declined by $810 million for the quarter, as consistent with our strategy to re-position the balance sheet, cash flows from the residential and securities portfolios were used to pay down wholesale funding.

    • The loans to deposits ratio declined to 93.3% at September 30, 2023, from 95.3% at June 30, 2023.

    • We have maintained ample liquidity. Total same day available liquidity was $14.4 billion, the available liquidity to uninsured, uncollateralized deposits ratio was 161% and an estimated 66% of our deposits were insured or collateralized at September 30, 2023.

    • Our capital position remains robust. At September 30, 2023, CET1 increased to 11.4% at the holding company and 13.2% at the Bank. Pro-forma CET1 at the holding company and the Bank, including accumulated other comprehensive income, were 9.8% and 11.5%, respectively at September 30, 2023.

  • For the quarter ended September 30, 2023, the provision for credit losses was $33.0 million. The ratio of the ACL to total loans increased to 0.80%, at September 30, 2023 from 0.68% at June 30, 2023. The largest driver of the provision for credit losses and increase in the ACL for the quarter was a less favorable economic forecast.

  • The annualized net charge-off ratio for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was 0.07%. NPAs remained low, totaling $140.5 million at September 30, 2023 compared to $120.8 million at June 30, 2023. Most of the increase was in the franchise finance portfolio. The NPA ratio at September 30, 2023 was 0.40%, including 0.11% related to the guaranteed portion of non-performing SBA loans. At June 30, 2023 the NPA ratio was 0.34%, including 0.10% related to the guaranteed portion of non-performing SBA loans.

  • Total loans declined by $274 million quarter-over-quarter. As expected, most of the decline was attributable to residential which was down by $225 million.

  • Consistent with industry trends, rising interest rates and restrictive monetary policy contributed to an increase in the average cost of total deposits to 2.74% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from 2.46% for the immediately preceding quarter. This increase of 0.28% was smaller than the 0.41% increase in the cost of deposits for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, continuing the trend of a declining rate of increase in deposit costs. The yield on average interest earning assets increased to 5.52% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from 5.30% for the immediately preceding quarter.

  • Commercial real estate exposure is modest. Commercial real estate loans totaled 23.5% of loans at September 30, 2023, representing 168% of the Bank's total risk based capital. At September 30, 2023, the weighted average LTV of the CRE portfolio was 55.8% and the weighted average DSCR was 1.80. 58% of the portfolio was secured by collateral properties located in Florida and 25% was secured by properties in the New York tri-state area.

  • We remain committed to keeping the duration of our securities portfolio short; the duration of the available for sale securities portfolio was 2.02 at September 30, 2023. Held to maturity securities were not significant.

  • Book value and tangible book value per common share were $33.92 and $32.88, respectively, at September 30, 2023, compared to $33.94 and $32.90, respectively at June 30, 2023.

  • In October 2023, BankUnited was named #1 on the list of the healthiest 100 workplaces in America published by Healthiest Employers/Springbuk, highlighting our commitment to employee wellness initiatives and programs.

Deposits and Funding

Total deposits grew by $274 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Non-interest bearing demand deposits grew by $52 million, interest-bearing non-maturity deposits grew by $552 million and time deposits declined by $330 million.

Consistent with the current interest rate environment and restrictive monetary policy, the cost of total deposits increased to 2.74% from 2.46% for the immediately preceding quarter, while the cost of interest bearing deposits increased to 3.76% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from 3.39% for the preceding quarter.

FHLB advances declined by $810 million for the quarter, as we used cash flows from the residential and securities portfolios to reduce wholesale funding levels and allow for future re-deployment of capital into higher yielding assets.

Consistent with our balance sheet strategy, for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, residential loans declined by $225 million while C&I grew by $101 million and CRE grew by $46 million. Franchise and equipment finance declined by $29 million in aggregate, MWL declined by $116 million, primarily due to low levels of activity in the residential real estate sector, and municipal finance declined by $51 million. As we continue to emphasize high quality relationship based lending, we chose to exit approximately $297 million of commercial loans during the quarter due to lower profitability, the lack of deposit relationships or, in some cases, to take advantage of opportunities to reduce criticized and classified assets.

Annualized for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

The ACL at September 30, 2023 represents management's estimate of lifetime expected credit losses given an assessment of historical data, current conditions, and a reasonable and supportable economic forecast as of the balance sheet date. For the quarter ended September 30, 2023, the provision for credit losses was $33.0 million, including $30.9 million related to funded loans. The most significant factor impacting the provision for credit losses and increase in the ACL for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was the impact on quantitative modeling of a less favorable economic forecast. Changes in portfolio composition as well as risk rating migration and increases in certain specific reserves also had an impact.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was $214.8 million, compared to $213.9 million for the immediately preceding quarter ended June 30, 2023 and $235.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. Interest income increased by $7.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 compared to the immediately preceding quarter while interest expense increased by $6.2 million.

The Company’s net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, increased by 0.09% to 2.56% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, from 2.47% for the immediately preceding quarter ended June 30, 2023. Factors impacting the net interest margin for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 were:

  • The tax-equivalent yield on loans increased to 5.54% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, from 5.35% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023. The resetting of variable rate loans to higher coupon rates, paydown of lower rate residential loans and origination of new loans at higher rates contributed to the increase.
  • The tax-equivalent yield on investment securities increased to 5.48% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, from 5.19% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023. This increase resulted primarily from the reset of coupon rates on variable rate securities.
  • The average cost of interest bearing deposits increased to 3.76% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 from 3.39% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, in response to the interest rate environment.
  • The average rate paid on FHLB advances decreased to 4.57% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, from 4.59% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to repayment of higher rate advances.
  • The reduction in the proportion of total funding comprised of more expensive wholesale funding also contributed to the increase in the net interest margin.
