FineMark Holdings, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2022 Earnings

FineMark Holdings Reports Second Quarter 2022 Net Income of $7 Million, Earnings Per Diluted Share of $.59

FORT MYERS, FL / ACCESSWIRE / July 19, 2022 / FineMark Holdings, Inc. (the "Holding Company"; OTCQX:FNBT), the parent company of FineMark National Bank & Trust (the "Bank"; collectively, "FineMark"), today reported net revenues of $27.3 million for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022, compared to $22.7 million in the second quarter of 2021. Net income was $7 million, or $.59 per diluted share, compared with net income of $5.4 million, or $.58 per diluted share, for the same period a year ago.

Joseph R. Catti, Chairman & Chief Executive Officer:

"FineMark again delivered strong results for the second quarter, despite the headwinds associated with the overall economy.

However, we continue to meet these challenges and achieve positive results by serving our clients at the highest level."

  • Net income increased 29% to $7 million.

  • Loan production increased by 3%.
  • Deposits increased 25% to $3 billion.
  • Net interest income increased 18% to $18.4 million.

  • Trust fees increased 2% to $6.75 million.
  • Assets under management and administration decreased 4% to $5.5 billion (including $139 million from new and expanded relationships, a 1% decrease).

Net Interest Income & Margin

For the second quarter of 2022, FineMark's net interest income totaled $18.4 million, up 18% from the year prior.

This increase was largely due to growth in the Bank's investment portfolio (a 60% increase year-over-year); continued loan growth, and the repayment of $45 million in Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB) advances, which will reduce the Bank's quarterly interest expense by $242 thousand going forward.

The investment portfolio grew by $443 million year-over-year, resulting in $1.3 million in additional interest income for the quarter. The investment portfolio now represents 33% of total assets.

Interest rates continued to rise in the second quarter, however the Bank's interest expense declined due to the prepayment of both FHLB advances and subordinated debt. The latter resulted in a savings of $190 thousand for the quarter. The Bank's net interest margin increased to 2.22%, up from 2.14% in first quarter 2022, but down from 2.24% in second quarter 2021.

Non-Interest Income

As of June 30, 2022, assets under management and administration totaled $5.5 billion, down slightly from $5.7 billion in the second quarter of 2021.

The Bank's trust and investment earnings were impacted by the decline in the U.S. equity markets (the S&P 500 was down 16%), which resulted in a 1% decrease in recurring trust fees for the quarter.

Despite market volatility, $139.5 million was added from new and existing clients, which is a testament to the exceptional level of expertise and service provided by our associates.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense increased 17% for a total of $17.7 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $15.1 million in second quarter of 2021. This increase is primarily due to salary expense and costs associated with the opening of two new locations in the second quarter. As FineMark continued to grow, additional expenses were incurred to maintain high service levels, which included hiring 10 new associates in the second quarter. Despite these increasing operating expenses, FineMark was able to reduce its efficiency ratio to 64.9%, compared to 66.4% in the second quarter of last year.

Credit Quality

Asset quality remained pristine, and the Bank remains committed to maintaining its high credit standards through a relationship-centered approach to lending. Loan decisions are based on an in-depth understanding of each borrower's needs and unique financial situation. As a result, the Bank has experienced minimal loan defaults through various economic cycles.

As of June 30, 2022, non-performing loans totaled $706 thousand, or 0.03% of total loans, a decrease from $2 million or 0.10% in the second quarter of 2021. The current allowance for loan losses is $21.6 million (or 1.01% of gross loans).

Balance Sheet Highlights

Despite rising interest rates, loan production continued to be strong in the second quarter, increasing by 3% to $268 million for the quarter, compared to $260 million last year. Additionally, deposits continued to grow from both existing and new clients, increasing 25% or $592 million compared to the second quarter of 2021. The investment portfolio increased to approximately $1.2 billion from $740 million a year ago, which is a 60% or $443 million increase over this time last year. Lastly, FHLB advances are down $44 million or 16%.

Capital

All capital ratios continue to exceed regulatory requirements for "well-capitalized" banks. On June 30, 2022, FineMark's Tier 1 leverage ratio on a consolidated basis was 9.16%, and the total risk-based capital ratio was 20.03%.

Rising interest rates during the quarter resulted in a $61 million net unrealized loss on the Bank's investment portfolio. This unrealized loss does not reflect bond credit quality; rather, it shows how rapidly interest rates have increased. These losses will likely remain unrealized since the Bank intends to hold these bonds to maturity.

Return on average equity (ROAE) increased to 10.28% this quarter, compared to 9.89% for the second quarter of 2021.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains statements that are "forward-looking statements." You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of the words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "assume," "outlook," "will," "should," and other expressions that predict or indicate future events and trends, and which do not relate to historical matters. You should not rely on forward-looking statements because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. These risks, uncertainties, and other factors may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from the anticipated future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

Some of the factors that might cause these differences include: weakness in national, regional or international economic conditions or conditions affecting the banking or financial services industries or financial capital markets; volatility in national and international financial markets; reductions in net interest income resulting from interest rate volatility as well as changes in the balance and mix of loans and deposits; reductions in the market value or outflows of assets under administration; changes in the value of securities and other assets; reductions in loan demand; changes in loan collectability, default and charge-off rates; changes in the size and nature of our competition; changes in legislation or regulation and accounting principles, policies and guidelines; occurrences of cyber-attacks, hacking and identity theft; natural disasters; and changes in the assumptions used in making such forward-looking statements. You should carefully review all of these factors and you should be aware that there might be other factors that could cause these differences.

These forward-looking statements were based on information, plans and estimates at the date of this report. We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, future events or other changes.
