Summary Results
BancorpSouth's net income for the fourth quarter of 2009 was $19.4 million, or $0.23 per diluted share, compared with $16.8 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2008. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2009 was $104.3 million, or $1.25 per diluted share, compared with $120.4 million, or $1.45 per diluted share, for 2008.
Aubrey Patterson, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of BancorpSouth, remarked, "BancorpSouth's fourth quarter results reflected a strong operating performance given difficult industry conditions. Consistent with our performance throughout 2009, we maintained solidly profitable operations, stability in our net interest margin at a relatively high and improving level, and strong growth in mortgage originations. Through effective pricing and extending the maturities of our deposit portfolio, we continued to manage our interest rate risk. We also significantly strengthened our already ample liquidity through reduced bank borrowings. We continued to expand our capital in each quarter of 2009 and have now achieved 14 consecutive quarters of growth in our ratio of equity to assets on a comparable quarter basis.
"As anticipated throughout a year of steadily declining real estate values, our credit quality continues to be affected by a slow economy, particularly in the housing sector. While non-performing assets and net charge-offs have increased, both remain at manageable levels, and we continue to focus on early identification of potential problems and work aggressively to resolve those problems. To remain well reserved against inherent credit losses, we continued to build the allowance for credit losses through a fourth quarter provision for credit losses significantly in excess of net charge offs for the quarter. While we saw some signs of increased economic stability during the fourth quarter, we expect real estate values to remain under pressure in 2010.
"Given the uncertain economic environment, we also remain appropriately conservative in our plans for branch expansion during 2010. On the other hand, we anticipate growth through market consolidation opportunities, especially those assisted by the FDIC. We are focused on acquiring strategic franchises with growth potential and strong core deposits. In addition to having the financial strength to support significant transactions, we have a long and successful record of integrating acquired companies with minimum market disruption, thereby maintaining or increasing market share."
Net Interest Revenue
Net interest revenue was $113.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2009, an increase of 1.5 percent from $111.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2008 and 1.1 percent from $111.7 million for the third quarter of 2009. The fully taxable equivalent net interest margin was 3.83 percent for the fourth quarter of 2009, compared with 3.74 percent for the fourth quarter of 2008 and 3.77 percent for the third quarter of 2009.
"With our fourth quarter results, BancorpSouth has produced three sequential quarters of growth in net interest revenue and increased net interest margin," continued Patterson. "We expect this performance, as well as the stability our operations have exhibited throughout the economic turmoil of the last two years, to continue to differentiate BancorpSouth favorably from industry peers. As industry year end data is reported, we also expect to be further differentiated for having modestly increased our loan portfolio during 2009, even though growth opportunities were limited by the weak economy. In addition, because of the continuing strength of our asset/liability management strategies, our net interest margin for the fourth quarter rose to its highest level in nearly seven years.
"For the fourth quarter of 2009, the net interest margin primarily reflected the impact of a substantial increase in deposits, which enabled a substantial reduction in short-term borrowings. Demand deposits rose 10.4 percent for the fourth quarter of 2009 from the fourth quarter of 2008 and 6.9 percent from the third quarter of 2009. Time deposits increased 9.8 percent from the fourth quarter of 2008. This deposit growth enabled us to reduce short-term borrowings by 60.8 percent, or $1.2 billion, during 2009. We also lengthened the average maturity of our time deposits, which rose to 13.9 months from 10.6 months at the end of 2009 and 2008, respectively.
"Our asset/liability management strategy during 2009 reflects our conservative operating principles. Steps to increase the average maturity of our time deposits while reducing lower cost FHLB borrowings cost us in the short term, but place us in a better position to profitably fund balance sheet growth when that opportunity occurs. This shift to increased deposit funding substantially increased our liquidity, enhancing our ability to act decisively with regard to strategic growth opportunities."
Asset, Deposit and Loan Activity
Total assets at December 31, 2009 were $13.2 billion, compared with $13.5 billion at December 31, 2008. Total deposits were $10.7 billion at December 31, 2009, an increase of 9.9 percent from $9.7 billion at December 31, 2008. Loans and leases, net of unearned income, increased 0.9 percent to $9.8 billion at December 31, 2009 from $9.7 billion at December 31, 2008.
Patterson said, "Unlike many banks, we were able to offset loan runoff during 2009 with new loan production as we continued to serve the needs of our customers. Much of our new loan growth was produced in our newer markets, such as western Louisiana and eastern Texas, validating the strategic expansion of our geographic footprint. At the same time, the double-digit growth in demand deposits for the fourth quarter demonstrated the benefits of our focus on developing, maintaining and enhancing a strong deposit franchise. Demand deposits increased to 54.5 percent of our funding at the end of 2009 from 48.6 percent at the end of 2008. Because of the strength and relative stability of the diversified markets across our eight-state franchise, we remain confident of their inherent growth potential as the economic cycle improves."
Provision for Credit Losses and Allowance for Credit Losses
For the fourth quarter of 2009, the provision for credit losses was $34.7 million compared with $17.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2008 and $22.5 million for the third quarter of 2009. Annualized net charge-offs were 1.01 percent of average loans and leases for the fourth quarter of 2009 compared with 0.57 percent for the fourth quarter of 2008 and 0.68 percent for the third quarter of 2009.
Non-performing loans and leases increased to $145.1 million, or 1.48 percent of net loans and leases, at December 31, 2009 from $64.0 million, or 0.66 percent of net loans and leases, at December 31, 2008 and from $111.6 million, or 1.14 percent of net loans and leases, at September 30, 2009. The allowance for credit losses increased to 1.58 percent of net loans and leases at December 31, 2009 compared with 1.37 percent at December 31, 2008 and 1.48 percent at September 30, 2009.
"The growth in our non-performing loans during the fourth quarter was primarily related to real estate loans in our more urban markets," added Patterson. "Many of these loans reflect the cumulative pressure that the extended economic downturn in these markets has had on established customers that were performing well prior to and earlier in the downturn. As the increase in net charge-offs indicates, we took decisive action when warranted. This action included making a significant provision for credit losses for the fourth quarter. At the end of 2009, our allowance for credit losses was 1.1 times total non-performing loans and 1.6 times annualized fourth quarter net charge-offs."
Noninterest Revenue
Noninterest revenue was $64.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2009, an increase of 60.9 percent from $40.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2008 and 3.2 percent from $62.5 million for the third quarter of 2009. Results for the fourth quarter of 2009 included a $1.6 million increase in the value of BancorpSouth's mortgage servicing rights (MSR) compared with a $15.0 million decline for the fourth quarter of 2008 and a $2.7 million decline for the third quarter of 2009. Results for the fourth quarter of 2008 also included an $8.6 million write down of other than temporary impairment of certain investments in pooled trust preferred securities.
Patterson commented, "At 36.4 percent of total revenue for the fourth quarter, noninterest revenue again provided significant diversification of our revenue streams, mitigating any potential impact of interest rate volatility on our inherently spread dependent business. We were very pleased with the strong performance of our mortgage business. Mortgage lending revenue, excluding changes in the MSR valuation, increased 149.5 percent to $7.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2009 from $2.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2008 and 46.3 percent from $4.8 million for the third quarter of 2009. We have continued to invest in this business line throughout 2009 through the addition of proven mortgage originators.
"All our mortgages are originated within our eight-state franchise by BancorpSouth originators, who typically work in our branch bank offices. The borrowers are either existing or potential customers for our other services and nearly 40 percent of these customers make their monthly mortgage payment in our branch bank offices. Consistent with our strong service culture, we retain mortgage servicing rights to these mortgages to provide an outstanding service experience for these customers.
"The increase in our mortgage originations contributed significantly to the growth in mortgage lending revenue for the fourth quarter of 2009, which was especially notable after the record refinancing volume during the first half of the year. We expect our strategy will support additional growth as the real estate market recovers.
"Growth for some of our noninterest revenue products and services was challenging in the current environment. Specifically, we experienced soft insurance market conditions during 2009 after a record year for 2008, reflected in a 6.2 percent decline in commission revenue for the fourth quarter of 2009 from the fourth quarter of 2008. Through an ongoing focus on outstanding customer service, we have maintained a strong customer base, which we expect will provide growth momentum as industry conditions improve. Fourth quarter revenues from service charges and credit and debit card fees also declined compared with the fourth quarter of 2008. Like our insurance operations, these business lines continued to make substantial contributions to our profitability."
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense was $116.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2009, an increase of 4.4 percent from $111.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2008 and a decline of 4.9 percent from $122.7 million for the third quarter of 2009. The comparable quarter results again reflected the substantial increase in BancorpSouth's FDIC premium. Although the Company continues to be assessed at the FDIC's lowest rate, the FDIC premium for the fourth quarter of 2009 increased $2.3 million over the fourth quarter of 2008. The growth in noninterest expense from the fourth quarter of 2008 is also attributable to the opening of full-service branch bank offices.
Capital Management
BancorpSouth's commitment to a strong capital base is one of its fundamental operating principles. The Company's capital base strengthened further during the fourth quarter of 2009, as the ratio of shareholders' equity to assets improved on a comparable quarter basis for the 14th consecutive quarter, increasing to 9.83 percent at the end of 2009 from 9.20 percent at the end of 2008 and 9.69 percent at the end of the third quarter of 2009. The ratio of tangible equity to assets also increased to 7.78 percent at the end of 2009 from 7.15 percent at the end of 2008 and 7.64 percent at the end of the third quarter of 2009. BancorpSouth remains a "well capitalized" financial holding company, as defined by federal regulations, with Tier 1 risk-based capital of approximately 11.56 percent at year end and total risk based capital of approximately 12.81 percent, compared with required minimum levels of 6 percent and 10 percent, respectively, to meet the definition of "well capitalized."
Summary
Patterson concluded, "We are encouraged by early signs of a stabilizing economy, but we are very cautious about prospects for a sustained recovery in 2010. Longer term, we remain fully confident about our ability to achieve our growth objectives. This confidence is reinforced by the Company's performance during the past two years in the most challenging environment we have experienced. Throughout, BancorpSouth has produced solid profits, demonstrated strong credit metrics and risk management, and expanded its liquidity and capital while also increasing cash dividends that, in 2009, rose for the 26th consecutive year.
"Importantly, we have remained fully engaged in our markets, making new loans, working with our customers who have experienced financial difficulty and offering strength and stability for our communities in a difficult economic environment. As a result, we have not only benefitted from expanding business with new customers attracted by our service orientation, financial stability and consistent performance, but also from the addition to our team of seasoned professionals who appreciate BancorpSouth's business model and potential for long-term growth. While we expect the challenging environment to continue in the months ahead, our performance for 2009 is compelling evidence that we are positioned to perform well in the year to come and to take full advantage of strategic growth opportunities."
