Carter Bankshares, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2021 Financial Results

MARTINSVILLE, VA / ACCESSWIRE / October 28, 2021 / Carter Bankshares, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ:CARE), the holding company of Carter Bank & Trust (the "Bank") today announced net income of $11.2 million, or $0.42 diluted earnings per share, for the third quarter of 2021 compared to net income of $5.4 million, or $0.21 diluted earnings per share, in the second quarter of 2021 and a net loss of $57.7 million, or $2.19 per share, for the third quarter of 2020. A loss of $57.7 million was recognized during the third quarter of 2020 related to a one-time charge resulting from goodwill impairment. This impairment charge reduced net income by $62.2 million, resulting in a net loss for the third quarter of 2020. The quarterly pre-tax pre-provision income 1 , which excludes, among other things, the one-time goodwill impairment charge, were $9.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, $7.7 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and $7.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, net income was $26.0 million, or $0.98 diluted earnings per share, compared to a net loss of $48.8 million, or $1.85 per share for the first nine months ended September 30, 2020. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, excluding the one-time goodwill impairment charge, was $13.4 million, or $0.51 diluted earnings per share. Pre-tax pre-provision income 1 were $25.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and $22.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 excluding the goodwill impairment charge.

Third Quarter 2021 Financial Highlights

  • In August 2021, the Bank reached an agreement with West Virginia Governor James C. Justice, II, members of his family and related entities (the "Justice Parties") to restructure certain loans to the Justice Parties. In connection with this agreement, on September 8, 2021, the lawsuit filed by the Justice Parties was dismissed with prejudice. The Bank's loans to the Justice Parties were restructured with improved economic terms and an improved collateral position via cross collateralization. In addition, the Justice Parties executed documents that reaffirm the legality and binding nature of all of their loan documents and waive any causes of action they might have against the Bank;

  • Nonperforming loans declined $0.7 million, or 7.3% to $8.9 million at September 30, 2021 compared to June 30, 2021 and decreased $31.6 million, or 78.1%, from September 30, 2020. The decline from September 30, 2020 is due to the resolution of our two largest nonperforming credits during the second quarter of 2021. Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total portfolio loans were 0.31%, 0.33% and 1.35% as of September 30, 2021, June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively;

  • The provision for credit losses totaled $(0.4) million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, as compared to $1.0 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 primarily due to the sale of nine loans within two performing relationships that had been previously reserved and released;

  • Net interest income increased $2.2 million, or 8.1%, to $29.4 million compared to the second quarter of 2021 primarily due to a 13 basis point increase in earning assets related to enhanced return on loan assets restructured during the third quarter of 2021 and a seven basis point decrease in funding costs;

  • Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis 3 ("FTE"), increased 17 basis points to 2.96% compared to the second quarter of 2021 and increased 29 basis points compared to the third quarter of 2020;

  • Total deposits increased $7.1 million to $3.7 billion at September 30, 2021 compared to June 30, 2021, and increased $52.7 million, or 1.5%, compared to September 30, 2020. The increases from June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 were primarily due to increased core deposits;

  • Core deposits, including noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing demand deposits, money market accounts and savings, increased by $61.3 million, or 2.8%, as compared to June 30, 2021.

"We are pleased with the direction of the Company and our third quarter results. The continued decline in problem assets, particularly those in the substandard classification, is a positive reflection of our continued efforts to improve the asset quality of the Company. Further reduction of troubled assets remains one of our primary objectives," stated Litz H. Van Dyke, Chief Executive Officer. "We also continue to make progress in improving the fundamentals of the Company, including an increase in interest-earning assets, a better deposit mix, and a continued reduction in our cost of funds, all of which are driving our net interest margin higher and improving our financial metrics."

Van Dyke continued, "During the third quarter of 2021, the lawsuit filed by West Virginia Governor James Justice and related entities was dismissed and the Bank's loans to the Justice Parties were restructured. . This was a favorable outcome for our Company. This resolution enhanced the economics and collateral position of the relationship. Separately, we continue to focus on improving the main drivers of revenue and earnings growth which ultimately enhance the overall financial performance of the Company."

Operating Highlights

Net interest income increased $2.2 million, or 8.1%, to $29.4 million compared to the second quarter of 2021 and $4.0 million, or 15.6%, as compared to the third quarter of 2020. The net interest margin, on an FTE basis 3 , increased 17 basis points to 2.96% compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and increased 29 basis points compared to the third quarter of 2020. The yield on interest-earning assets increased 13 basis points and decreased three basis points compared to the quarters ended June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively. Funding costs declined seven basis points as compared to the previous quarter and 41 basis points as compared to the same quarter of 2020.

The Company continues to focus on the expansion of net interest income and net interest margin. The third quarter of 2021 was positively impacted by the collection of significant late fees and enhanced pricing on restructured loans related to one large credit relationship. Certain of these restructured loans may not be renewed at maturity and/or may not otherwise impact the net interest income and net interest margin as significantly in future periods.

The Company previously elected to defer its adoption of Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") in accordance with relief provided under the U.S. Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ("CARES") Act. As such, the Company did adopt the CECL accounting standard on March 31, 2021, effective January 1, 2021. Management believes the allowance for credit losses ("ACL") is adequate to absorb expected losses in the Bank's loan portfolio at September 30, 2021.

The provision for credit losses decreased to $(0.4) million in the third quarter of 2021 compared to $1.0 million in the second quarter of 2021. The decrease in the provision for credit losses was primarily driven by a decrease of $3.1 million to the ACL due to the sale of nine loans within two performing relationships. These loans were included in the commercial real estate loan segment, during the third quarter of 2021 with an aggregate unpaid principal balance of $50.0 million that were previously reserved. This decrease was offset by the increase of $1.6 million of special qualitative reserves in connection with increased uncertainty in credit quality with respect to two loan relationships with an aggregate unpaid balance of $12.0 million in the commercial real estate loan segment. During the third quarter of 2021, management observed that $62.0 million of loans that were previously in the deferral program were recovering at rates much lower than peers. Accordingly, management sold $50.0 million of these loans in the third quarter and has developed a workout strategy with the remaining two loan relationships with an aggregate unpaid balance of $12.0 million. The qualitative reserves were established given the uncertainty of the future performance of these borrowers.

The provision for unfunded commitments in the third quarter of 2021 was a release of $0.1 million compared to a release of $0.6 million in the second quarter of 2021.

At September 30, 2021 nonperforming loans declined $0.7 million, or 7.3%, to $8.9 million since June 30, 2021. Net charge-offs were $9.6 million for the third quarter of 2021 compared to $0.4 million in the same period of 2020. The increase in net charge-offs in the third quarter of 2021 was primarily due to $9.2 million charge-offs related to the aforementioned sale of nine loans within two performing relationships, included the commercial real estate loan segment, that had been previously reserved. As a percentage of average portfolio loans, on an annualized basis, net charge-offs were 1.30% and 0.05% for the third quarter of 2021 and 2020, respectively. Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total portfolio loans were 0.31%, 1.09% and 1.35% as of September 30, 2021, December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020, respectively.

Total noninterest income was $6.9 million for the third quarter of 2021, a decrease of $0.3 million, or 4.5%, from the second quarter of 2021 and a decrease of $1.1 million, or 13.3%, compared to the third quarter of 2020. The decrease of $0.3 million from the second quarter of 2021 was primarily driven by the $0.5 million gain received on the sale of four bank branches included in other income in the second quarter of 2021 and a reduction of $0.2 million in net securities gains, offset by an increase of $0.4 million in commercial loan swap fee income.

The decrease of $1.1 million compared to the third quarter of 2020 was impacted by declines in net security gains of $1.0 million and lower commercial loan swap fee income of $0.5 million, offset by a $0.5 million increase in service charges on deposit accounts. The fluctuations of commercial loan swap fee income were due to the timing and demand for this product in the current low interest rate environment. The increase in service charges on deposit accounts was due to reinstating fees on COVID-19 related fee waivers granted during 2020.

Total noninterest expense was $24.7 million for the third quarter of 2021, a decrease of $3.1 million, or 11.1%, from the second quarter of 2021 and a decrease of $62.6 million, or 71.7%, compared to the third quarter of 2020. The decrease of $3.1 million from the second quarter of 2021 was primarily driven by a write-down of $3.0 million for closed bank branches recorded in the second quarter of 2021. These branches were closed in the second quarter of 2021, transferred to Other Real Estate Owned ("OREO") and marketed for sale. The write-downs were offset by $0.4 million in gains associated with the sale of four of the OREO properties during the second quarter of 2021. Also included in the third quarter of 2021, is a $0.6 million loss on the sale of OREO on 13 properties.

Also impacting the decrease from the second quarter of 2021 was a $0.9 million decline in salaries and employee benefits. This decline related to $0.5 million higher medical expenses in the second quarter of 2021 due to several large critical illness claims and $0.4 million of one-time severance and stay bonuses for impacted branch employees from the branch closures and sales, both recorded in the second quarter of 2021.

Other items impacting the decrease compared to the second quarter of 2021 included lower professional and legal expenses of $0.2 million, offset by an increase of $0.2 million in other noninterest expense primarily related to the finder's fee for the aforementioned loan sales.

The decrease of $62.6 million in total noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 was driven by the one-time charge resulting from goodwill impairment of $62.2 million, recorded in the third quarter of 2020.

Financial Condition

Total assets decreased $45.1 million to $4.1 billion at September 30, 2021 compared to $4.2 billion at December 31, 2020. Total portfolio loans decreased $63.0 million, or 2.9% on an annualized basis, to $2.9 billion at September 30, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020 primarily due to several large commercial loan payoffs. OREO decreased $2.5 million at September 30, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020 due to the sale of 18 branches and five OREO properties during 2021.

Closed retail bank offices increased $0.3 million and have a remaining book value of $2.8 million at September 30, 2021 compared to $2.5 million at December 31, 2020. During 2021, 20 branch closures were completed and 13 of those were sold as part of our branch network optimization project that aligns with our strategic goals to enhance franchise value and improve operating efficiency.

Federal Reserve Bank excess reserves decreased $42.2 million to $121.3 million at September 30, 2021 from $163.5 million at December 31, 2020 due to active balance sheet management.

The securities portfolio increased $118.9 million and is currently 21.7% of total assets at September 30, 2021 compared to 18.6% of total assets at December 31, 2020. The increase is a result of active balance sheet management. We have further diversified the securities portfolio as to bond types, maturities and interest rate structures.

Total deposits decreased $18.2 million to $3.7 billion at September 30, 2021 as compared to December 31, 2020. The decline from December 31, 2020 was due to the intentional runoff of $211.8 million of higher cost certificates of deposit ("CDs") and $84.7 million of deposits held-for-assumption in connection with the sale of four bank branches which were completed during the second quarter of 2021. Offsetting these decreases at September 30, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020 was an increase of $278.3 million, or 14.0% in core deposits, which includes noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing demand deposits, money market accounts and savings accounts. At September 30, 2021, noninterest-bearing deposits comprised 19.7% compared to 19.0% and 18.4% of total deposits at December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020, respectively. CDs comprised 38.3%, 43.8% and 48.8% of total deposits at September 30, 2021, December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020, respectively.

The Bank provided deferrals to customers under Section 4013 of the CARES Act and regulatory interagency guidance regarding loan modifications. The Bank launched successive deferral programs with short-term expirations. The Part I program was launched on March 23, 2020 and expired on August 31, 2020. The deferrals in Part I provided for deferral of principal and up to the deferral of principal and interest, if requested through the expiry. The Part II program extended deferrals through December 31, 2020 subject to the collection of updated financial information and validation of need. For these borrowers the Bank requested verification of business and/or guarantor liquidity to ascertain the viability of the business in a post-pandemic environment. Prior to the extension of the CARES Act, the Bank launched the Part III program which offered borrowers in the Part II program an extension of deferrals through June 30, 2021. Borrowers who opted into the Part III program were required to provide monthly financial statements and remit payments on a quarterly basis equal to the lesser of: i) 90% of free cash flow (EBITDA) or, ii) the otherwise contractual payment ("recapture payment"). Following the expiration of the deferral programs on June 30, 2021, for term loans, payments were applied to accrued interest first and after accrued interest is current, payments will be applied to principal. Deferred principal will be due at maturity. For interest only loans, such as lines of credit, deferred interest will be due at maturity. As of September 30, 2021 all but $6.5 million of loans resumed regularly scheduled payments. Cumulative deferred interest totaled $12.0 million as of June 30, 2021, but declined to $2.8 million as of September 30, 2021.

The Bank also participated in the Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") established by the CARES Act. Through the first two rounds of PPP, we had approved 515 loan applications totaling $39.9 million through our internal lending program, of which 498 loans totaling $38.5 million have been fully forgiven by the Small Business Administration ("SBA") as of September 30, 2021. The $39.9 million in PPP loans originated during the first two rounds of PPP generated $1.5 million in fees, which have been, or will be, recognized in income as loans are forgiven, or over the remaining life of the loan for any portion that is not forgiven. We had an additional 451 loans approved that were referred to an online small business lender, totaling $17.9 million during the first two rounds of PPP. On December 22, 2020 Congress passed legislation that was signed into law on December 27, 2020, making available a third round of PPP funding. We provided access to the program through our internal lending program for our current business customers. As of September 30, 2021, we had approved 136 loan applications totaling $11.1 million, of which 87 loans totaling $6.4 million have been fully forgiven by the SBA. These loans generated additional fee income of $0.3 million and $0.1 million and $1.0 million and $0.1 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively.

The Company remains well capitalized. The Company's Tier 1 Capital ratio was 13.85% at September 30, 2021 as compared to 13.08% at December 31, 2020. The Company's leverage ratio was 10.48% at September 30, 2021 as compared to 10.26% at December 31, 2020. The Company's Total Risk-Based Capital ratio was 15.11% at September 30, 2021 as compared to 14.33% at December 31, 2020. In March 2020, the banking regulators issued an interim final rule ("IFR") to delay the estimated impact on regulatory capital stemming from the implementation of CECL. The IFR maintains the three-year transition option in the previous rule and provides banks the option to delay for two years an estimate of CECL's effect on regulatory capital, relative to the incurred loss methodology's effect on regulatory capital, followed by a three-year transition period (five-year transition option). We adopted CECL effective January 1, 2021 and elected to implement the capital transition relief over the permissible three-year period.

Total capital of $405.9 million at September 30, 2021, reflects a decrease of $34.3 million as compared to December 31, 2020. The decrease in total capital during 2021 is primarily due to the transitional adjustment of $50.7 million, net of tax for the adoption of CECL and a $10.3 million decrease in other comprehensive income due to changes in fair value of available-for-sale investment securities, offset by net income of $26.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. The remaining difference of $0.7 million is related to restricted stock activity through September 30, 2021.

At September 30, 2021, funding sources accessible to the Company include borrowing availability at the Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB"), equal to 25.0% of the Company's assets or approximately $1.0 billion, subject to the amount of eligible collateral pledged, federal funds unsecured lines with six other correspondent financial institutions in the amount of $145.0 million and access to the institutional CD market. In addition to the above funding resources, the Company also has $724.7 million of unpledged available-for-sale investment securities as an additional source of liquidity.
