Texas Capital Bancshares, Inc. Announces Operating Results for Q1 2020

DALLAS, April 22, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Texas Capital Bancshares, Inc. TCBI, the parent company of Texas Capital Bank, announced operating results for the first quarter of 2020.

"Our focus during this unprecedented time is on keeping our employees safe and continuing to serve our clients and communities," said Keith Cargill, CEO. "We have taken deliberate actions to ensure that our balance sheet remains strong, including increases in liquidity and reserves supported by a strong capital position. We remain committed to a timely closing of our pending merger with Independent Bank Group and believe our combined strength will enable us to better serve our clients and build long-term shareholder value."

• Strong balance sheet positioning in the first quarter of 2020 included deliberate increases in liquidity and funding sources to support current and future client needs.
• Over 90% of employees working virtually since early March with little to no impact on client experience.
• Net loss of $16.7 million ($0.38 per share) reported for the first quarter of 2020 attributable to a $96.0 million ($1.50 per share) provision for credit losses driven by the adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020, coupled with increases in charge-offs and criticized loans and reserve build related to the global COVID-19 pandemic, MSR impairment of $10.0 million ($0.16 per share) and merger-related expenses of $7.3 million ($0.11 per share).

FINANCIAL SUMMARY
(Dollars and shares in thousands)

DETAILED FINANCIALS

During the first quarter of 2020, all of us have faced an unprecedented time as our country deals with the health challenges of COVID-19. Actions by US federal, state and foreign governments to address the pandemic, including travel bans and school, business and entertainment venue closures, have resulted in economic weakness and market volatility. Significant uncertainties as to future economic conditions exist, and we have acted in a deliberate way to ensure that we have the balance sheet strength to serve our clients. Our actions include record levels of on balance sheet liquidity and increased capital ratio levels. Additionally, the economic pressures, coupled with the implementation of an expected loss methodology as required by CECL have contributed to an increased provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2020. We are more committed than ever to meeting the demands of our clients. We have responded quickly and nimbly to address changing economic pressures and our infrastructure has been resilient in dealing with the many demands of a dispersed workforce. Just as we were able to make quick and deliberate decisions to address near-term challenges, we will be equally ready when the world returns to more normal times and we will capitalize on the lessons learned from these unprecedented times.

For the first quarter of 2020, we reported a net loss of $16.7 million and net loss available to common stockholders of $19.1 million, compared to net income of $82.8 million and net income available to common stockholders of $80.4 million for the same period in 2019. On a fully diluted basis, earnings/(loss) per common share were $(0.38) for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 compared to $1.60 for the same period of 2019. The decline in net income for the first quarter of 2020 resulted primarily from a $76.0 million increase in the provision for credit losses. The first quarter of 2020 also includes $10.0 million in MSR impairment ($0.16 per share) and $7.3 million ($0.11 per share) in merger-related expenses.

During the first quarter of 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-13 "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments", which replaces the incurred loss methodology with an expected loss methodology that is referred to as the Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") methodology. Upon adoption, the allowance for credit losses was increased by $9.1 million, with no impact to the consolidated statement of income. We recorded a $96.0 million provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2020 utilizing the newly adopted CECL methodology, a significant increase from prior quarters. The increase resulted primarily from increases in criticized loans and charge-offs, as well as the impact of reserve build related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Of the $96.0 million provision, $55.0 million related to two large energy loans that were previously identified as problem loans that experienced further deterioration during the first quarter of 2020 exacerbated by the sharp decline in commodity prices, and approximately $30.0 million related to COVID-19 reserve build. In total, $1.8 billion of loans in categories that are expected to be more significantly impacted by COVID-19 were proactively downgraded, primarily to lower pass-rated grades. We recorded $57.7 million in net charge-offs during the first quarter of 2020, including $37.3 million in energy charge-offs and $15.6 million in leveraged lending charge-offs, all of which were loans that have been previously identified, compared to $12.8 million during the fourth quarter of 2019 and $4.6 million during the first quarter of 2019. Criticized loans totaled $675.9 million at March 31, 2020, compared to $584.1 million at December 31, 2019 and $602.8 million at March 31, 2019.

Non-performing assets ("NPAs") totaled $219.2 million at March 31, 2020, a decrease of $6.2 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2019 and an increase of $85.5 million compared to the first quarter of 2019. The year-over-year increase is primarily related to our energy and leveraged lending portfolios, with non-accrual energy loans and non-accrual leveraged lending loans totaling $151.9 million (69% of total NPAs) and $50.0 million (23% of total NPAs), respectively, at March 31, 2020. The ratio of NPAs to total LHI plus other real estate owned ("OREO") for the first quarter of 2020 was 0.90 percent, compared to 0.91 percent for the fourth quarter of 2019 and 0.57 percent for the first quarter of 2019.

Net interest income was $228.3 million for the first quarter of 2020, compared to $248.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2019 and $235.6 million for the first quarter of 2019. The linked quarter decrease in net interest income was due primarily to decreases in yields on loans and liquidity assets, as well as a decrease in average total loans, partially offset by a decrease in funding costs. Net interest margin for the first quarter of 2020 was 2.78 percent, a decrease of 17 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2020 and a decrease of 95 basis points from the first quarter of 2019. LHI yields, excluding mortgage finance loans, decreased 27 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2019, and decreased 93 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2019. Mortgage finance LHI yields for the first quarter of 2020 decreased 3 basis points compared to the fourth quarter of 2019 and decreased 66 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2019. The shift in earning assets, primarily the increase in liquidity assets, also contributed to the decrease in net interest margin. Total cost of deposits for the first quarter of 2020 decreased 9 basis points to 0.90 percent compared to 0.99 percent for the fourth quarter of 2019, and decreased 43 basis points from 1.33 percent for the first quarter of 2019.

Non-interest income decreased $6.0 million, or 34 percent, during the first quarter of 2020 compared to the fourth quarter of 2019, and decreased $18.2 million, or 61 percent, compared to the first quarter of 2019. The linked quarter decrease is primarily related to decreases in net gain/(loss) on sale of LHS and other non-interest income, partially offset by an increase in swap fees. The year-over-year decrease is primarily related to decreases in net gain/(loss) on sale of LHS and other non-interest income, partially offset by increases in brokered loan fees, servicing income and swap fees.

Non-interest expense for the first quarter of 2020 increased $6.7 million, or 4 percent, compared to the fourth quarter of 2019, and increased $25.0 million, or 18 percent, compared to the first quarter of 2019. The linked quarter increase in non-interest expense was primarily related to increases in servicing-related expenses and merger-related expenses, partially offset by decreases in salaries and employee benefits, marketing and legal and professional expenses. The year-over-year increase was primarily due to increases in legal and professional and communications and technology expenses, as well as servicing-related expenses and merger-related expenses, partially offset by a decrease in marketing expense.

Texas Capital Bank is well capitalized under regulatory guidelines as of March 31, 2020. Our CET 1, tier 1 capital, total capital and leverage ratios were 9.3%, 10.2%, 12.0% and 8.5%, respectively, at March 31, 2020, compared to 8.9%, 9.8%, 11.4% and 8.4%, respectively, at December 31, 2019. At March 31, 2020, our ratio of tangible common equity to total tangible assets was 7.3% percent compared 8.2% at December 31, 2019.
