WALLA WALLA, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Banner Corporation (NASDAQ:BANR) (“Banner”), the parent company of Banner Bank, today reported net income of $37.6 million, or $1.09 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $42.6 million, or $1.24 per diluted share, for the preceding quarter and $55.6 million, or $1.61 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2023. Net interest income was $133.0 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $138.4 million in the preceding quarter and $153.3 million in the first quarter a year ago. The decrease in net interest income compared to the preceding quarter and prior year quarter reflects an increase in funding costs, partially offset by an increase in yields on earning assets. Banner’s first quarter 2024 results included a $4.9 million net loss on the sale of securities, compared to a $4.8 million net loss on the sale of securities in the preceding quarter and a $7.3 million net loss on the sale of securities in the first quarter of 2023. Banner’s first quarter 2024 results also included a $520,000 provision for credit losses, compared to a $2.5 million provision for credit losses in the preceding quarter and a $524,000 recapture of provision for credit losses in the first quarter of 2023. In addition, the preceding quarter included a $3.5 million fair value gain recorded on multifamily loans as a result of their transfer from held for sale to held for investment, with no similar transaction recorded in the current quarter.
Banner announced that its Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.48 per share. The dividend will be payable May 10, 2024, to common shareholders of record on April 30, 2024.
“Banner’s operating performance for the first quarter of 2024 reflects our super community bank business strategy of emphasizing a moderate risk profile and strong relationship banking, positioning the Company to weather current market conditions,” said Mark Grescovich, President and CEO. “Our results for the first quarter of 2024 benefited from higher yields on interest-earning assets. However, the continued high interest rate environment, and its effect on funding costs, resulted in moderate compression in our net interest margin during the quarter. We continue to maintain strong credit quality metrics and a solid reserve for potential credit losses. Additionally, we continue to benefit from a strong core deposit base, with core deposits representing 89% of total deposits at quarter end. Banner has upheld its core values for the past 133 years, which are to do the right thing for our clients, communities, colleagues, company and shareholders; and to provide consistent and reliable strength through all economic cycles and change events.”
At March 31, 2024, Banner, on a consolidated basis, had $15.52 billion in assets, $10.72 billion in net loans and $13.16 billion in deposits. Banner operates 135 full-service branch offices, including branches located in eight of the top 20 largest western Metropolitan Statistical Areas by population.

Income Statement Review
Net interest income was $133.0 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $138.4 million in the preceding quarter and $153.3 million in the first quarter a year ago. Net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis decreased nine basis points to 3.74% for the first quarter of 2024, compared to 3.83% in the preceding quarter, and decreased compared to 4.30% in the first quarter a year ago. Net interest margin for the current quarter was impacted by increased funding costs reflecting the persistent high interest rate environment, partially offset by increased yields on loans due to new loans being originated at higher interest rates.
Average yields on interest-earning assets increased 10 basis points to 5.16% for the first quarter of 2024, compared to 5.06% for the preceding quarter, and increased compared to 4.68% in the first quarter a year ago. Average loan yields increased 10 basis points to 5.87%, compared to 5.77% in the preceding quarter, and increased compared to 5.38% in the first quarter a year ago. The increase in average yields on interest-earning assets, particularly loans, during the current quarter reflects the benefit of new loans being originated at higher interest rates. Total deposit costs increased 19 basis points to 1.37% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 1.18% in the preceding quarter, and compared to 0.28% in the first quarter a year ago. The increase in the cost of deposits was due to a larger percentage of core deposits being in interest bearing accounts as well as an increase in the mix of higher cost retail CDs. The average rate paid on borrowings increased 21 basis points to 4.98% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 4.77% in the preceding quarter, and compared to 3.41% in the first quarter a year ago. The total cost of funding liabilities increased 22 basis points to 1.53% during the first quarter of 2024, compared to 1.31% in the preceding quarter, and compared to 0.40% in the first quarter a year ago.
A $520,000 provision for credit losses was recorded in the current quarter (comprised of a $1.4 million provision for credit losses - loans, an $887,000 recapture of provision for credit losses - unfunded loan commitments and a $17,000 recapture of provision for credit losses - held-to-maturity debt securities). This compares to a $2.5 million provision for credit losses in the prior quarter (comprised of a $3.8 million provision for credit losses - loans, a $526,000 recapture of provision for credit losses - unfunded loan commitments, a $750,000 recapture of provision for credit losses - available for sale securities and a $23,000 recapture of provision for credit losses - held-to-maturity debt securities) and a $524,000 recapture of provision for credit losses in the first quarter a year ago (comprised of a $774,000 provision for credit losses - loans, a $1.3 million recapture of provision for credit losses - unfunded loan commitments and a $20,000 recapture of provision for credit losses - held-to-maturity debt securities). The provision for credit losses for the current quarter is primarily related to the loan growth in the construction and one- to four-family loan portfolios and was partially offset by a reduction in unfunded loan commitments in the construction portfolio. The provision for credit losses for the preceding quarter primarily reflected increased loan balances and higher than forecasted net loan charge-offs, partially offset by an increase in the trading price of our investments in other banks’ subordinated debt.
Total non-interest income was $11.6 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $14.1 million in the preceding quarter and $9.3 million in the first quarter a year ago. The decrease in non-interest income during the current quarter compared to the preceding quarter was primarily due to a $3.1 million decrease in mortgage banking operations revenue and a $1.1 million decrease in the fair value adjustments on financial instruments carried at fair value during the current quarter, partially offset by a $1.5 million increase in deposit fees and other service charges. The increase in non-interest income during the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to a $2.3 million decrease in the net loss recognized on the sale of securities.
Mortgage banking operations revenue, including gains on one- to four-family and multifamily loan sales and loan servicing fees, was $2.3 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $5.4 million in the preceding quarter and $2.7 million in the first quarter a year ago. The decrease from the preceding quarter primarily reflects a $3.5 million reversal of the lower of cost or market adjustment on multifamily loans held for sale recognized during the preceding quarter due to the transfer of all remaining multifamily loans held for sale to the held for investment loan portfolio in the fourth quarter of 2023. In 2023, the Bank discontinued the origination of multifamily loans for sale into the secondary market. The volume of one- to four-family loans sold during the current quarter increased compared to the prior year quarter, although overall volumes remained low due to reduced refinancing and purchase activity in the current rate environment. Home purchase activity accounted for 89% of one- to four-family mortgage loan originations in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 92% in the preceding quarter and 88% in the first quarter of 2023.
First quarter 2024, non-interest income included a $992,000 net loss for fair value adjustments as a result of changes in the valuation of financial instruments carried at fair value, principally comprised of limited partnership investments, and a $4.9 million net loss on the sale of securities. In the preceding quarter, non-interest income included a $139,000 net gain for fair value adjustments and a $4.8 million net loss on the sale of securities. In the first quarter a year ago, non-interest income included a $552,000 net loss for fair value adjustments and a $7.3 million net loss on the sale of securities.
Total non-interest expense was $97.6 million in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $96.6 million in the preceding quarter and $94.6 million in the first quarter of 2023. The increase in non-interest expense for the current quarter compared to the prior quarter primarily reflects a $2.3 million increase in salary and employee benefits, primarily due to typically higher first quarter payroll taxes and 401(k) expense, as well as higher medical insurance expense, partially offset by a $737,000 decrease in professional and legal expense and a $607,000 decrease in advertising and marketing expense. The increase in non-interest expense for the current quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago primarily reflects increases in salary and employee benefits, payment and card processing services expense and deposit insurance expense. Banner’s efficiency ratio was 67.55% for the first quarter of 2024, compared to 63.37% in the preceding quarter and 58.20% in the same quarter a year ago. Banner’s adjusted efficiency ratio* was 63.70% for the first quarter of 2024, compared to 60.04% in the preceding quarter and 54.23% in the year ago quarter.
*Non-GAAP financial measures. See, “Additional Financial Information - Non-GAAP Financial Measures” on the final two pages of this press release for a discussion and reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures.
Federal and state income tax expense totaled $8.8 million for the first quarter of 2024 resulting in an effective tax rate of 19.0%, reflecting the benefits from tax exempt income. Banner’s statutory income tax rate for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, was 23.7%, representing a blend of the statutory federal income tax rate of 21.0% and apportioned effects of the state income tax rates.
Balance Sheet Review
Total assets decreased to $15.52 billion at March 31, 2024, compared to $15.67 billion at December 31, 2023, and $15.53 billion at March 31, 2023. Securities and interest-bearing deposits held at other banks totaled $3.32 billion at March 31, 2024, compared to $3.48 billion at December 31, 2023 and $3.99 billion at March 31, 2023. The decrease compared to the prior quarter was primarily due to the sale of securities and normal cash flows from the security portfolio. The average effective duration of the securities portfolio was approximately 6.6 years at both March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023.
Total loans receivable increased to $10.87 billion at March 31, 2024, compared to $10.81 billion at December 31, 2023, and $10.16 billion at March 31, 2023. One- to four-family residential loans increased 3% to $1.57 billion at March 31, 2024, compared to $1.52 billion at December 31, 2023, and increased 25% compared to $1.25 billion at March 31, 2023. The increase in one- to four-family residential loans was the result of one- to four-family construction loans converting to one- to four-family portfolio loans upon the completion of the construction phase and new loan production. Multifamily real estate loans decreased slightly to $809.1 million at March 31, 2024, compared to $811.2 million at December 31, 2023, and increased 16% compared to $696.9 million at March 31, 2023. The increase in multifamily real estate loans year over year was primarily the result of the conversion of affordable housing multifamily construction loans to the multifamily portfolio upon the completion of the construction phase as well as the transfer of $43.5 million of multifamily loans held for sale to the held for investment loan portfolio in the fourth quarter of 2023. Construction, land and land development loans increased 2% to $1.57 billion at March 31, 2024, compared to $1.54 billion at December 31, 2023, and increased 7% compared to $1.47 billion at March 31, 2023. The increase in construction, land and land development loans was primarily the result of new loan production and advances on multifamily construction loans, primarily related to affordable housing projects. Agricultural business loans decreased 4% to $318.0 million at March 31, 2024, compared to $331.1 million at December 31, 2023, primarily due to operating line paydowns, and increased 17% compared to $272.7 million at March 31, 2023, primarily due to new loan production.
Loans held for sale were $9.4 million at March 31, 2024, compared to $11.2 million at December 31, 2023 and $49.0 million at March 31, 2023. One- to four-family residential mortgage loans sold totaled $65.9 million in the current quarter, compared to $65.6 million in the preceding quarter and $40.5 million in the first quarter a year ago. The decrease in loans held for sale compared to March 31, 2023 was due to the previously mentioned transfer of multifamily loans held for sale to the held for investment loan portfolio in the fourth quarter of 2023. There were no multifamily loans held for sale at March 31, 2024 or December 31, 2023.
Total deposits increased to $13.16 billion at March 31, 2024, compared to $13.03 billion at December 31, 2023 and $13.15 billion a year ago. Core deposits increased 1% to $11.67 billion at March 31, 2024, compared to $11.55 billion at December 31, 2023, and decreased 4% compared to $12.20 billion at March 31, 2023. The increase in core deposits compared to the prior quarter was primarily due to increases in savings accounts while the decrease compared to the prior year quarter reflected clients moving funds out of non-interest bearing accounts into higher yielding certificates of deposits. Core deposits were 89% of total deposits at March 31, 2024, compared to 89% of total deposits at December 31, 2023 and 93% of total deposits at March 31, 2023. Certificates of deposit increased 1% to $1.49 billion at March 31, 2024, compared to $1.48 billion at December 31, 2023, and increased 56% compared to $949.9 million a year earlier. The increase in certificates of deposit during the current quarter compared to the preceding quarter and first quarter a year ago was principally due to clients seeking higher yields moving funds from core deposit accounts to higher yielding certificates of deposit. The increase in certificates of deposit from the first quarter a year ago was also due to a $107.5 million increase in brokered deposits.
Banner Bank’s estimated uninsured deposits were $4.18 billion or 31% of total deposits at March 31, 2024, compared to $4.08 billion or 31% of total deposits at December 31, 2023. The uninsured deposit calculation includes $316.6 million and $305.3 million of collateralized public deposits at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Uninsured deposits also include cash held by the holding company of $113.9 million and $108.2 million at March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively. Banner Bank’s estimated uninsured deposits, excluding collateralized public deposits and cash held at the holding company, were 28% of total deposits at both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Banner had $52.0 million of FHLB advances at March 31, 2024, compared to $323.0 million at December 31, 2023 and $170.0 million a year ago. At March 31, 2024, Banner’s off-balance sheet liquidity included additional borrowing capacity of $3.27 billion at the FHLB and $1.66 billion at the Federal Reserve as well as federal funds line of credit agreements with other financial institutions of $125.0 million.
Subordinated notes, net of issuance costs, were $89.5 million at March 31, 2024 compared to $92.9 million at December 31, 2023 and $99.0 million at March 31, 2023. The decrease in subordinated notes from both the preceding and prior year quarters was due to Banner Bank’s purchase of $10.0 million of Banner’s subordinated debt over the past year.
At March 31, 2024, total common shareholders’ equity was $1.66 billion, or 10.73% of total assets, compared to $1.65 billion or 10.55% of total assets at December 31, 2023, and $1.53 billion or 9.86% of total assets at March 31, 2023. The increase in total common shareholders’ equity at March 31, 2024 compared to December 31, 2023 was primarily due to a $20.8 million increase in retained earnings as a result of $37.6 million in net income, partially offset by the accrual of $16.7 million of cash dividends during the first quarter of 2024. The increase in retained earnings was partially offset by a $10.3 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss, primarily due to a decrease in the fair value of the security portfolio as a result of an increase in market interest rates during the first quarter of 2024. At March 31, 2024, tangible common shareholders’ equity*, which excludes goodwill and other intangible assets, net, was $1.29 billion, or 8.50% of tangible assets*, compared to $1.27 billion, or 8.33% of tangible assets, at December 31, 2023, and $1.15 billion, or 7.59% of tangible assets, a year ago.

These regulatory capital ratios are estimates, pending completion and filing of Banner’s regulatory reports.
Credit Quality
The allowance for credit losses - loans was $151.1 million, or 1.39% of total loans receivable and 513% of non-performing loans, at March 31, 2024, compared to $149.6 million, or 1.38% of total loans receivable and 506% of non-performing loans, at December 31, 2023, and $141.5 million, or 1.39% of total loans receivable and 528% of non-performing loans, at March 31, 2023. In addition to the allowance for credit losses - loans, Banner maintains an allowance for credit losses - unfunded loan commitments, which was $13.6 million at March 31, 2024, compared to $14.5 million at December 31, 2023, and $13.4 million at March 31, 2023. Net loan recoveries totaled $73,000 in the first quarter of 2024, compared to net loan charge-offs of $1.1 million in the preceding quarter and net loan charge-offs of $782,000 in the first quarter a year ago. Non-performing loans were $29.5 million at March 31, 2024, compared to $29.6 million at December 31, 2023, and $26.8 million a year ago.
Substandard loans were $116.1 million at March 31, 2024, compared to $125.4 million at December 31, 2023 and $148.0 million a year ago. The decrease primarily reflects paydowns and payoffs of substandard loans as well as risk rating upgrades.

(2) |

See, “Additional Financial Information - Non-GAAP Financial Measures” on the final two pages of this press release for a reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures. |

ADDITIONAL FINANCIAL INFORMATION
(dollars in thousands)
* Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), this earnings release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Tangible common shareholders’ equity per share and the ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets, and references to adjusted revenue, adjusted earnings, the adjusted return on average assets, the adjusted return on average equity and the adjusted efficiency ratio represent non-GAAP financial measures. Management has presented these non-GAAP financial measures in this earnings release because it believes that they provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in Banner’s core operations reflected in the current quarter’s results and facilitate the comparison of our performance with the performance of our peers. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for any analysis based on GAAP. Where applicable, comparable earnings information using GAAP financial measures is also presented. Because not all companies use the same calculations, our presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures as calculated by other companies. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures, see the tables below:
