Sterling Bancorp Reports Second Quarter 2022 Financial Results

Sterling Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: SBT) (“Sterling” or the “Company”), the holding company of Sterling Bank and Trust, F.S.B. (the “Bank”), today reported its unaudited financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Second Quarter 2022 Highlights

  • Net loss of $(2.2) million, or $(0.04) per diluted share
  • Net interest margin of 2.95%
  • Non-interest expense of $19.5 million
  • Provision (recovery) for loan losses of $(1.1) million; ratio of allowance for loan losses to total loans held for investment of 2.91%
  • Shareholders’ equity of $335.3 million
  • Bank capital ratios continue to be in excess of minimum ratios required to be considered “well-capitalized” with a leverage ratio of 14.44%, a total risk-based capital ratio of 24.93% and a common equity tier one ratio of 23.65%
  • The Company’s consolidated leverage ratio of 12.91%, total risk-based capital ratio of 24.70% and common equity tier one ratio of 21.06% continue to exceed minimum regulatory capital requirements
  • Total deposits of $2.0 billion
  • Total gross loans of $1.8 billion
  • Advantage Loan Program loans with unpaid principal balances of $30.4 million repurchased during the quarter
  • Surrender of a large split-dollar life program and certain older BOLI policies for former executives and a controlling shareholder and reversal of associated liabilities
  • New outsourced platform implemented for residential loan originations, minimizing the fixed costs of the residential lending business

The Company reported a net loss of $(2.2) million, or $(0.04) per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, compared to net income of $5.3 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2022.

During the second quarter, we outsourced our residential lending to Promontory MortgagePath (“MortgagePath”), which provides community banks with an outsourced residential lending service for mortgage loan production. The transition was fully implemented and launched at the end of May 2022. MortgagePath employs staff primarily dedicated to the origination of Sterling’s loan products, which are underwritten pursuant to Sterling’s lending policies. Sterling maintains the final credit decision. In connection with the transition, during the second quarter, we incurred severance costs of approximately $0.4 million relating to a reduction of 35 full-time equivalent positions in our in-house mortgage origination area that had annual compensation and employee benefits of approximately $3.7 million. The costs with MortgagePath will be primarily volume driven but the Bank will pay a modest fee should volume not reach production hurdles.

“The MortgagePath program allows us to continue an active participation in the residential loan market without the fixed costs of a full-time staff. Our residential lending product is now introduced to our customers through an online Sterling channel and integrated into MortgagePath’s fully compliant system,” said Thomas M. O’Brien, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.

Balance Sheet

Total Assets – Total assets of $2.5 billion as of June 30, 2022 reflected a decrease of $305.3 million, or 11%, from $2.8 billion at March 31, 2022.

Cash and due from banks decreased $201.6 million, or 41%, to $285.2 million at June 30, 2022 compared to $486.7 million at March 31, 2022. Investment securities, which we consider part of our liquid assets, increased $17.9 million, or 5%, to $382.3 million at June 30, 2022 compared to $364.4 million at March 31, 2022.

Total gross loans held for investment of $1.8 billion at June 30, 2022 reflected a decline of $96.5 million, or 5%, from $1.9 billion at March 31, 2022 as loan payoffs have exceeded originations and loan repurchases during the second quarter. During the second quarter, we generated a modest amount of applications for residential mortgage loans through MortgagePath, which are in various stages of the origination process, but none of which have closed.

Cash surrender value of a large split-dollar life program and bank-owned life insurance (BOLI) policies decreased $24.8 million, or 75%, to $8.4 million during the quarter as certain policies related to a controlling shareholder and several former executives were surrendered.

Total Deposits – Total deposits of $2.0 billion at June 30, 2022 reflected a decrease of $195.9 million, or 9%, from March 31, 2022. This decrease is largely made up of time deposits which decreased $146.2 million, or 18%, compared to March 31, 2022 as management has used our excess liquidity to allow higher cost time deposits to run off. Money market, savings and NOW deposits of $1.3 billion reflected a decrease of $67.2 million, or 5%, from March 31, 2022. Noninterest-bearing deposits were $82.4 million at June 30, 2022 compared to $64.9 million at March 31, 2022.

Borrowings – Federal Home Loan Bank Borrowings decreased $100 million, or 67%, to $50 million at June 30, 2022 compared to $150 million at March 31, 2022, as the Company repaid $100 million in callable borrowings which were called by the Federal Home Loan Bank during the second quarter.

Capital Total shareholders’ equity was $335.3 million as of June 30, 2022 compared to $341.4 million at March 31, 2022. The decline in shareholders’ equity is primarily due to an increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss of $5.1 million due to increased unrealized losses on our investment securities portfolio, as well as the net loss of $2.2 million during the quarter. These unrealized losses on our investment portfolio are primarily attributable to changes in market value due to the current rising interest rate environment and are not realized in our consolidated statement of operations since the Bank has both the intent and ability to hold these investment securities until maturity or the price recovers.

The Bank exceeded all regulatory capital requirements required to be considered “well-capitalized” as of June 30, 2022, and the Company exceeded all applicable minimum regulatory capital requirements as of such date, as summarized in the following tables:

Asset Quality and Provision (Recovery) for Loan Losses – A recovery for loan losses of $1.1 million was recorded for the second quarter of 2022 compared to a recovery of $4.3 million for the first quarter of 2022. The allowance for loan losses at June 30, 2022 was $51.8 million, or 2.91% of total loans held for investment, compared to $52.5 million, or 2.80% of total loans held for investment, at March 31, 2022.

Net recoveries during the second quarter of 2022 were $0.4 million compared to net recoveries of $0.2 million in the first quarter of 2022.

Nonperforming assets at June 30, 2022 totaled $55.0 million, or 2.20% of total assets, compared to $54.1 million, or 1.93% of total assets, at March 31, 2022. Nonperforming assets at June 30, 2022 included $48.4 million of nonperforming loans held for investment, $4.0 million of nonaccrual loans held for sale and $2.6 million of troubled debt restructurings. Nonperforming assets at March 31, 2022 included $44.2 million of nonperforming loans held for investment, $7.2 million of nonaccrual loans held for sale and $2.7 million of troubled debt restructurings. The increase in nonperforming loans during the second quarter of 2022 is due to an increase of $4.3 million in residential mortgage loans delinquent 90 days or more. Gross loans held for investment delinquent 30 days or more decreased during the second quarter of 2022 to $72.4 million, or 4.07% of gross loans, from $74.1 million, or 3.95% of gross loans, at March 31, 2022.

“The concerns expressed in the past over commercial asset quality have largely been controlled at this point. Through diligent management of troubled credits and the recent successful sale of the SRO loans, commercial credit concerns have been greatly diminished. We will continue to review the remaining weaker commercial credits for potential sale or other exit opportunities. On the residential side, the delinquent loans are mostly from our former Advantage Loan Program. Of those, approximately $18.2 million are paying but have not cured to the point where they would return to accrual status. The remaining delinquent loans are in various states of foreclosure where we anticipate that the low LTVs at origination will continue to shield the Bank from meaningful loss,” said O’Brien.

Results of Operations

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin – Net interest income for the second quarter of 2022 was $19.5 million compared to $21.3 million for the first quarter of 2022 and $23.6 million for the second quarter of 2021. The decline in net interest income was due primarily to a decline in the average balance of our loan portfolio of $165.0 million, or 8%, from $2.0 billion in the first quarter of 2022 to $1.8 billion in the second quarter of 2022. The overall decline in interest income on interest earning assets was partially offset by a decrease in interest expense since our average interest-bearing deposits decreased $123.8 million in the second quarter of 2022 from $2.2 billion in the first quarter of 2022. Additionally, total average interest-bearing liabilities decreased in the second quarter of 2022 due to our repayment of borrowings of $100.0 million with the FHLB in the quarter.

The net interest margin of 2.95% for the second quarter of 2022 decreased compared to 3.03% for the first quarter of 2022 and increased compared to 2.70% for the second quarter of 2021. The decline in our net interest margin in the second quarter of 2022 reflects a decrease in the average yield on interest earning assets of 8 basis points while the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities stayed consistent. The decrease in the average yield on interest earning assets related to approximately $1.5 million in interest collected from nonperforming commercial real estate loans and construction loans in the first quarter of 2022 which contributed 21 basis points to the first quarter’s net interest margin.

Non-Interest Income – Non-interest income for the second quarter of 2022 was $45 thousand, a $1.4 million decrease from the immediately prior quarter. The decrease is partially attributable to the net servicing loss incurred during the quarter with the write-off of $0.4 million in mortgage servicing rights on the Advantage Loan Program loans repurchased during the second quarter. Additionally, the first quarter included a recovery on mortgage servicing rights valuation of $0.4 million compared to $0.1 million recovery in the second quarter, as well as a gain on the sale of commercial real estate loans totaling $0.2 million and the related recoveries on commercial real estate loans that paid in full prior to the sale of $0.3 million that were not present in the second quarter.

Non-Interest Expense – Non-interest expense of $19.5 million for the second quarter of 2022 was comparable in total with the first quarter of 2022. The second quarter of 2022 included a reduction in salaries and employee benefits of $4.0 million primarily related to the reversal of associated liabilities upon surrender of a large split-dollar life program and a few smaller BOLI policies. Salary and employee benefits expense also reflects both $0.4 million in separation costs related to the reduction in our mortgage origination staff as well as approximately one month of savings due to the staff reduction. Included in other expenses is $1.3 million in additional taxes related to the surrender of the split-dollar life program and BOLI policies, as well as $0.7 million loss to record the fair value discount on the $30.4 million of Advantage Loan Program loans repurchased. Non-interest expense also reflects an increase in professional fees, primarily direct and third-party legal expenses related to the government investigations.

Income Tax Expense – Income tax expense increased to $3.3 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared to $2.3 million in the prior quarter on income before income taxes of $1.1 million and $7.5 million, respectively. This increase is largely related to the surrender of certain split-dollar and BOLI policies which resulted in the life-to-date increase in the cash surrender value of the policies of $13.1 million being treated as taxable income that was previously nontaxable.

Mr. O’Brien commented, “There is some noise around the insurance surrenders, however, the net impact is fairly insignificant. In these cases, the board determined that the reasons the policies were originally undertaken as many as 20 years ago were no longer appropriate for Sterling. Also, in the quarter we experienced some increase in legal costs as the settlement process with the various government agencies gained momentum. Furthermore, we did experience some costs related to advancement for legal expenses for certain indemnified parties.

We have achieved some major milestones with respect to the various investigations. I believe that the Bank has now implemented all of the requirements to comply with the formal agreement with the OCC. This was a major undertaking by the board and management and is critical to our ability to close out the government investigations. I am hopeful we can resolve the government investigations this calendar year, however the timing is in the hands of the government agencies.

The damage done by the Advantage Loan Program is significant and its consequences are painful for all stakeholders. Notwithstanding all of the above and in my opinion, the success we have had in addressing the myriad of major issues at Sterling over the past 24 months is nothing short of remarkable. It is a testament to the total commitment of our board of directors and the management team to address these legacy problems forthrightly and proactively.”
