“Western Alliance delivered solid third quarter results featuring strong net interest income growth, continued loan and deposit momentum, and healthy earnings generation,” said Kenneth A. Vecchione, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Quarterly loan and deposit growth of $916 million and $1.8 billion, respectively, continued their upward trajectory and produced PPNR1 of $285.7 million. Asset quality remained stable with our nonperforming assets to total assets ratio declining to 0.45% and net loan charge-offs of 0.20% of average loans. Overall, we achieved net income of $199.8 million and earnings per share of $1.80 for the third quarter 2024, which resulted in a return on tangible common equity1 of 13.8%.

Income Statement

Net interest income totaled $696.9 million in the third quarter 2024, an increase of $40.3 million, or 6.1%, from $656.6 million in the second quarter 2024, and an increase of $109.9 million, or 18.7%, compared to the third quarter 2023. The increase in net interest income from the second quarter 2024 is due to an increase in average HFI and HFS loan balances, partially offset by a decrease in HFI loan yields. The increase in net interest income from the third quarter 2023 was driven by an increase in average HFI loan and investment securities balances, partially offset by higher balances and rates on deposits and a lower yields on HFI loans.

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $33.6 million in the third quarter 2024, a decrease of $3.5 million from $37.1 million in the second quarter 2024, and an increase of $21.5 million from $12.1 million in the third quarter 2023. The provision for credit losses during the third quarter 2024 is primarily reflective of net-charge offs of $26.6 million and loan growth.

The Company’s net interest margin in the third quarter 2024 was 3.61%, a decrease from 3.63% in the second quarter 2024, and a decrease from 3.67% in the third quarter 2023. The decrease in net interest margin from the second quarter 2024 was driven by lower yields on HFI loans. The decrease in net interest margin from the third quarter 2023 was driven by lower HFI loan yields and higher deposit rates.

Non-interest income was $126.2 million for the third quarter 2024, compared to $115.2 million for the second quarter 2024, and $129.2 million for the third quarter 2023. The $11.0 million increase in non-interest income from the second quarter 2024 was primarily due to increases in service charges and loan fees of $12.3 million, gain on sales of investment securities of $6.5 million, and other non-interest income of $10.8 million primarily from income on recently purchased bank owned life insurance policies. These increases were partially offset by a decrease of $25.8 million in net loan servicing revenue due to higher MSR fair value losses combined with lower servicing income. The $3.0 million decrease in non-interest income from the third quarter 2023 was primarily driven by lower net loan servicing revenue and lower fair value gain adjustments, partially offset by higher other non-interest income due to income on new bank owned life insurance policies.

Net revenue totaled $823.1 million for the third quarter 2024, an increase of $51.3 million or 6.6%, compared to $771.8 million for the second quarter 2024, and an increase of $106.9 million or 14.9%, compared to $716.2 million for the third quarter 2023.

Non-interest expense was $537.4 million for the third quarter 2024, compared to $486.8 million for the second quarter 2024, and $426.2 million for the third quarter 2023. The Company’s efficiency ratio, adjusted for deposit costs1 was 52.7% for the third quarter 2024, compared to 51.5% in the second quarter 2024, and 50.0% for the third quarter 2023. The increase in non-interest expense from the second quarter 2024 is due primarily to an increase of $34.3 million in deposit costs. The increase in non-interest expense from the third quarter 2023 is primarily attributable to an increase in deposit costs and salaries and employee benefits.

Income tax expense was $52.3 million for the third quarter 2024, compared to $54.3 million for the second quarter 2024, and $61.3 million for the third quarter 2023. The decrease in income tax expense from the second quarter 2024 is primarily related to increased expected utilization of tax credits. The decrease in income tax expense from the third quarter 2023 is primarily related to lower pre-tax income.

Net income was $199.8 million for the third quarter 2024, an increase of $6.2 million from $193.6 million for the second quarter 2024, and a decrease of $16.8 million from $216.6 million for the third quarter 2023. Earnings per share totaled $1.80 for the third quarter 2024, compared to $1.75 for the second quarter 2024, and $1.97 for the third quarter 2023.

The Company views its pre-provision net revenue1 ("PPNR") as a key metric for assessing the Company’s earnings power, which it defines as net revenue less non-interest expense. For the third quarter 2024, the Company’s PPNR1 was $285.7 million, up $0.7 million from $285.0 million in the second quarter 2024, and down $4.3 million from $290.0 million in the third quarter 2023.

The Company had 3,426 full-time equivalent employees and 56 offices at September 30, 2024, compared to 3,310 full-time equivalent employees and 56 offices at June 30, 2024, and 3,272 full-time equivalent employees and 56 offices at September 30, 2023.

Balance Sheet

HFI loans, net of deferred fees totaled $53.3 billion at September 30, 2024, compared to $52.4 billion at June 30, 2024, and $49.4 billion at September 30, 2023. The increase in HFI loans of $916 million from the prior quarter was primarily driven by increases of $861 million and $154 million in commercial and industrial and commercial real estate non-owner occupied loans, respectively, partially offset by decreases of $69 million and $50 million in commercial real estate owner occupied and residential real estate loans, respectively. The increase in HFI loans of $3.9 billion from September 30, 2023 was primarily driven by an increase of $4.2 billion in commercial and industrial loans, partially offset by a decrease of $384 million in residential real estate loans. HFS loans totaled $2.3 billion at September 30, 2024, compared to $2.0 billion at June 30, 2024, and $1.8 billion at September 30, 2023. The increases of $320 million and $561 million in HFS loans from June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, are primarily related to an increase in agency conforming loans.

The Company's allowance for credit losses on HFI loans consists of an allowance for funded HFI loans and an allowance for unfunded loan commitments. The allowance for loan losses to funded HFI loans ratio was 0.67%, 0.67%, and 0.66% at September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024, and September 30, 2023, respectively. The allowance for credit losses, which includes the allowance for unfunded loan commitments, to funded HFI loans ratio was 0.74% at September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024, and September 30, 2023. The Company is a party to credit linked note transactions which effectively transfer a portion of the risk of losses on reference pools of loans to the purchasers of the notes. The Company is protected from first credit losses on reference pools of loans totaling $8.8 billion, $8.9 billion, and $9.3 billion as of September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024, and September 30, 2023, respectively, under these transactions. However, as these note transactions are considered to be free standing credit enhancements, the allowance for credit losses cannot be reduced by the expected credit losses that may be mitigated by these notes. Accordingly, the allowance for loan and credit losses ratios include an allowance related to these pools of loans of $11.8 million as of September 30, 2024, $11.7 million as of June 30, 2024, and $17.4 million as of September 30, 2023. The allowance for credit losses to funded HFI loans ratio, adjusted to reduce the HFI loan balance by the amount of loans in covered reference pools, was 0.88% at September 30, 2024, 0.89% at June 30, 2024, and 0.91% at September 30, 2023.

Deposits totaled $68.0 billion at September 30, 2024, an increase of $1.8 billion from $66.2 billion at June 30, 2024, and an increase of $13.8 billion from $54.3 billion at September 30, 2023. By deposit type, the increase from the prior quarter is attributable to increases of $3.4 billion from non-interest bearing deposits and $2.5 billion from savings and money market deposits, partially offset by decreases of $3.4 billion from interest-bearing demand deposits and $714 million from certificates of deposits. From September 30, 2023, non-interest bearing deposits increased $7.0 billion, savings and money market deposits increased $4.9 billion, interest-bearing demand deposits increased $1.0 billion, and certificates of deposit increased $873 million. Non-interest bearing deposits were $25.0 billion at September 30, 2024, compared to $21.5 billion at June 30, 2024, and $18.0 billion at September 30, 2023.

The Company’s ratio of HFI loans to deposits was 78.4% at September 30, 2024, compared to 79.1% at June 30, 2024, and 91.1% at September 30, 2023.

Borrowings were $3.0 billion at September 30, 2024, $5.6 billion at June 30, 2024, and $8.7 billion at September 30, 2023. Borrowings decreased $2.6 billion from June 30, 2024 primarily due to a decrease of $3.6 billion in short-term borrowings, partially offset by a $1.0 billion increase in long-term borrowings. The decrease in borrowings from September 30, 2023 is primarily due to a decrease in short-term borrowings of $6.4 billion and payoff of the AmeriHome senior notes as part of the Company's balance sheet repositioning, partially offset by an increase in long term borrowings of $1.0 billion.

Stockholders’ equity was $6.7 billion at September 30, 2024, compared to $6.3 billion at June 30, 2024 and $5.7 billion at September 30, 2023. The increase in stockholders’ equity from the prior quarter was due to net income and unrealized fair value gains of $176 million on the Company's available-for-sale securities, which are recorded in other comprehensive loss, net of tax, partially offset by dividends to shareholders. Cash dividends of $40.7 million ($0.37 per common share) and $3.2 million ($0.27 per depository share) were paid to stockholders during the third quarter 2024. The increase in stockholders' equity from September 30, 2023 is primarily a function of net income and unrealized fair value gains on available-for-sale securities, partially offset by dividends to stockholders.

The Company's common equity tier 1 capital ratio was 11.2% at September 30, 2024, compared to 11.0% and 10.6% at June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. At September 30, 2024, tangible common equity, net of tax1, was 7.2% of tangible assets1 and total capital was 14.1% of risk-weighted assets. The Company’s tangible book value per share1 was $51.98 at September 30, 2024, an increase of 6.5% from $48.79 at June 30, 2024, and an increase of 19.1% from $43.66 at September 30, 2023. The increase in tangible book value per share from June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023 is attributable to net income.

Total assets decreased $501 million, or 0.6%, to $80.1 billion at September 30, 2024 from $80.6 billion at June 30, 2024, and increased 13.0% from $70.9 billion at September 30, 2023. The decrease in total assets from June 30, 2024 was primarily driven by a decrease in cash and due from banks and investment securities, which funded an increase in HFI loans and bank owned life insurance. The increase in total assets from September 30, 2023 was primarily driven by an increase in investment securities and HFI loans, partially offset by a decrease in cash and due from banks.

Asset Quality

Provision for credit losses totaled $33.6 million for the third quarter 2024, compared to $37.1 million for the second quarter 2024, and $12.1 million for the third quarter 2023.

Nonaccrual loans decreased $52 million to $349 million during the quarter and increased $112 million from September 30, 2023. Loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest totaled $4 million at September 30, 2024 and zero at June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023 (excluding government guaranteed loans of $313 million, $330 million, and $439 million, respectively). Loans past due 30-89 days and still accruing interest totaled $110 million at September 30, 2024, an increase from $83 million at June 30, 2024, and a decrease from $189 million at September 30, 2023 (excluding government guaranteed loans of $203 million, $221 million, and $261 million, respectively).
