Eagle Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: EGBN), the parent company of EagleBank (the “Bank”), today announced record net income of $43.5 million for the first quarter of 2021, as compared to $23.1 million net income for the first quarter of 2020, an 88% increase. Net income per basic and diluted common share for the first quarter of 2021 was $1.36 compared to $0.70 for the first quarter of 2020, a 94% increase. The increase in earnings is largely due to the first quarter of 2021 including a reversal of the provision for credit losses and significant gain on sale of residential mortgages, whereas the first quarter of 2020 included provisions for credit losses at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as, mark-to-market losses related to a hedge position on mortgage operations.

Susan G. Riel, President and Chief Executive Officer of Eagle Bancorp, Inc. commented, "We ended the first quarter of 2021 with record net income, continued strengthening in asset quality and a high level of capital. Earnings included a reversal to the allowance for credit losses as our outlook on the economy has improved, and another large gain on sale of residential mortgages from our residential mortgage division, which continues to generate strong results. For the quarter, we generated net income of $43.5 million with an ROAA of 1.53%, ROACE of 14.05% and a ROATCE2 of 15.33%."

"These earnings continue to demonstrate balanced financial performance including our ability to manage an efficient bank and we remain a leader among our peers with an efficiency ratio for the quarter of 40.7%. As an example of our expense management, during the quarter we relocated two branches with expiring leases to better locations nearby and consolidated two back-office locations, also with expiring leases, into a single new location, saving about $460,000 annually in rental expenses."

"While loan demand remains challenged during the pandemic, our earnings continue to generate capital that we expect will enable us to hit the ground running when economic activity and business openings expand. We believe the Washington, D.C. area is one of the most resilient and strongest economies in the nation and we remain optimistic about the reopening of businesses, and the positive impact the government stimulus will have on the regional economy. At quarter end, our shareholders equity reached $1.26 billion and our total risk-based capital was 17.86%. This gives us the ability to originate loans for large commercial projects, as well as a lot of runway to grow the loan portfolio when economic conditions improve and more opportunities arise."

"For our shareholders, at the end of the quarter our board increased the dividend to $0.25 per share, our first increase since the dividend was re-instituted in the second quarter of 2019. We also authorized a new stock repurchase plan in December 2020."

"We once again thank all of our employees for their commitment and diligence in serving the needs of our clients and communities and following safe health practices. As we look toward summer with optimism, we remain focused on strong and balanced operating performance. We will continue to proactively manage any asset quality concerns while delivering best-in-class service to our customers. We will continue to exercise prudent oversight of expenses, while retaining an infrastructure that is competitive, supports our growth initiatives, and proactively enhances our risk management systems as we position ourselves for future growth.”

Income Statement

  • Net interest income was $82.7 million in the first quarter of 2021, up from $79.7 million in the first quarter of 2020. The increase of $3.0 million was primarily from a 22% increase in average earning assets partially offset by a reduction in net interest margin.
  • Net interest margin was 2.98% for the first quarter of 2021, as compared to 3.49% for the first quarter of 2020. The decrease in margin primarily reflects a lower rate environment, significantly higher cash balances from strong deposit inflows and lower rates on Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loans.
  • Pre-provision net revenue ("PPNR")3 was $55.3 million in the first quarter of 2021, up from $47.9 million in the first quarter of 2020. As a percent of average assets, PPNR in the first quarter of 2021 was 1.95%, down from 2.04% in the first quarter of 2020. This decline was a result of a 15.4% increase in PPNR being outpaced by a 21.9% increase in average assets.

  • Provision for credit losses resulted in a reversal of $2.4 million in the first quarter of 2021, as compared to a provision of $14.3 million for the first quarter 2020. The reversal was driven by the improved macroeconomic outlook, improvement of credits in the loan portfolio and a reduction in total loans.
  • Net charge-offs were $5.2 million in the first quarter of 2021 as compared to $2.2 million in the first quarter of 2020. On an annualized basis, this was 0.27% of average loans (excluding loans held for sale) in the first quarter of 2021, as compared 0.12% in the first quarter of 2020. Charge-offs in the first quarter of 2021 were mostly a variety of commercial C&I credits, which included two restaurants, one commercial real estate credit for a hotel and two Small Business Administration ("SBA") credits.
  • Noninterest income was $10.6 million in the first quarter of 2021, as compared to $5.5 million for the first quarter 2020, a 94% increase. The increase was primarily due to a substantially higher gain on the sale of loans of $5.2 million and a $911 thousand gain from the cancellation of an FHLB borrowing for the first quarter of 2021 as compared to $0.9 million for the first quarter of 2020 (which included $2.6 million in hedge and mark-to-market losses). Residential mortgage loan locked commitments were $303.3 million for the first quarter of 2021 as compared to $422.2 million for the first quarter of 2020.
  • Noninterest expenses were $38.0 million for the first quarter of 2021 as compared to $37.3 million for the first quarter 2020, a 2% increase. The major changes between the two quarters were as follows:
    • Salaries and employee benefits were up $4.0 million as the number of employees increased, the incentive bonus accruals based on economic outlook were higher in the first quarter of 2021 (due to the gradual reopening of the economy) than in the first quarter of 2020 (due to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic) and an increase in share based compensation awards and vesting in 2021.
    • Legal, accounting and professional fees were down $4.0 million in the first quarter of 2021, as the first quarter of 2020 included elevated expenses from previously disclosed litigation.
    • FDIC expenses were up $1.0 million off a higher deposit base.
  • Efficiency ratio was 40.7% for the first quarter of 2021, an improvement from 43.8% for the first quarter of 2020. The improvement in the first quarter of 2021 over the first quarter of 2020 was from increases in noninterest income and net interest income, while non-interest expenses remained relatively flat.
  • Effective income tax rate for the first quarter of 2021 was 25.1% as compared to 26.5% for the first quarter of 2020. The decrease was due primarily to an increase in Low Income Housing Tax Credits in the first quarter of 2021.

Balance Sheet

  • Total assets at March 31, 2021 were $11.1 billion, up less than 1% from the prior quarter-end and up 11.4% from a year ago. The increase in assets over assets from a year ago was primarily driven by deposit inflows in the second and third quarters of 2020.
  • Total loans (excluding loans held for sale) were $7.5 billion as of March 31, 2021, a decrease of 3.0% from the prior quarter end and a decrease of 4.0% from a year ago. If PPP loans were excluded, the balance was $7.0 billion4 at March 31, 2021, a decrease of 4.7% from the prior quarter end and a decrease of 11.2% from a year ago. We have continued to focus on serving our current loan clients and maintaining credit quality, over expanding the loan portfolio at lower rates and less favorable terms.

  • Allowance for credit losses was 1.36% of gross loans, compared to 1.41% the prior quarter-end and 1.23% a year ago. Adjusted to exclude PPP loans, which are fully government guaranteed, the allowance for credit losses was 1.47%5, compared to 1.50% the prior quarter end and 1.23% a year ago. The reduction in the allowance for credit losses in the first quarter of 2021, is due to a provision reversal of $2.4 million and net charge-offs of $5.2 million.

  • Investment portfolio had a balance of $1.4 billion at March 31, 2021, up $218 million or 18.9% from the prior quarter end and up $510 million or 59.4% from a year ago. Investments made during the quarter were primarily 20 year, 2% agency mortgage backed securities and callable agency bonds. We continue to judiciously deploy excess liquidity in to the investment portfolio to achieve higher yields over cash alternatives.
  • Total deposits were $9.2 billion at March 31, 2021, up $9.6 million or 0.1% from the prior quarter end, and up $1.1 billion or 13.0% from a year ago. Deposit growth slowed in the first quarter of 2021 which allowed the Bank to reduce its excess liquidity as it deployed funds into the investment portfolio.
  • Total shareholders’ equity was $1.26 billion at March 31, 2021, up $19.9 million or 1.6% from the prior quarter end, and up $98.1 million or 8.4% from a year ago. In the first quarter of 2021, the increases in stockholders equity were partially offset by common dividends declared of $7.9 million and stock repurchases of $62 thousand.
    • Book value per share was $39.45, up 1.0% from the prior quarter end and up 9.2% from a year ago.
    • Tangible book value per share was $36.166, up 1.2% from the prior quarter end and up 10.0% from a year ago.
  • Capital ratios for the Company remain strong and substantially in excess of regulatory minimum requirements. Regulatory ratios based on risk based capital ratios continue to trend up, driven by strong earnings and declines in risk weighted assets, including relatively little change in outstanding loans. Tier 1 Capital which was adversely impacted by the increase in average assets, trended down.

Additional Commentary

  • Stock repurchase plan: In December 2020, the Board of Directors approved a new stock repurchase plan of up to 1,588,848 shares, or approximately 5% of shares outstanding, which commenced January 1, 2021. In the first quarter of 2021, the Company completed repurchases of 1,466 shares for $62,000 at an average cost of $42.46 per share under the Stock Repurchase Plan.
  • Increase in the dividend: On March 31, 2021, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per common share payable on May 3, 2021 to shareholders of record on April 21, 2021. This was an increase over the prior quarterly dividend of $0.22 per share that had been in place since the second quarter of 2019.
  • Deposit mix: The Company continues to emphasize achieving core deposit growth. The mix of average noninterest deposits to average total deposits remained favorable at 32% in the first quarter of 2021, as compared to 29% in the first quarter of 2020. In the first quarter of 2021, CDs with a total balance of $230.9 million with a weighted average rate of 1.69% matured. These CDs had weighted average term of 18 months at issuance.
  • Loans closed/payoffs: We continue to seek well structured new loan opportunities. Loan payoffs in the first quarter of 2021 continued at a level similar to the fourth quarter of 2020. With new loan closings down, total loan balances (excluding loans held for sale and PPP loans) fell $344 million from the prior quarter end. Unfunded commitments declined to $1.9 billion as of March 31, 2021 as compared to $2.1 billion a year ago.
  • Loan yields: In addition to the current sharply lower interest rate environment which continued from 2020, we have focused less on higher risk and higher yielding construction lending and more on strong commercial real estate credits secured by stabilized income producing properties.
    • The yield on the loan portfolio was 4.65% for the first quarter of 2021 as compared to 5.07% for the first quarter of 2020.
    • Loan yields, excluding lower yielding PPP loans, was 4.73%7 in the first quarter of 2021, as compared to 5.07% in the first quarter of 2020.

  • Nonperforming loans and assets: On a linked quarter basis, both non-performing loans and assets decreased.
    • Nonperforming loans were $52.3 million or 0.69% of total loans at March 31, 2021, down from $60.9 million or 0.79% at the prior quarter end, and up from $47.7 million or 0.61% of total loans a year ago.

At March 31, 2021, other real estate owned was $5.0 million, unchanged from the prior quarter end.
  • Legal update: As previously disclosed by the Company, on December 24, 2020, by stipulation of the parties, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York stayed the putative class action lawsuit filed against the Company and certain of its officers, its current and former President and Chief Executive Officer, its current and former Chief Financial Officer and its former General Counsel on behalf of persons who purchased or otherwise acquired Company securities between March 2, 2015 and July 17, 2019 (the “class”), pending a non-binding mediation that had been scheduled for April 13, 2021.Immediately following the non-binding mediation, the lead plaintiff, on behalf of the class, the Company and each of the other defendants continued a settlement dialogue and reached an agreement to settle the putative class action lawsuit, involving a total payment by the Company of $7.5 million in exchange for the release of all of the defendants from all alleged claims in the class action suit, without any admission or concession of wrongdoing by the Company or the other defendants. The agreement remains subject to final documentation, court approval and other customary conditions. The Company expects that the full amount of a final settlement will be paid by the Company’s insurance carriers under applicable insurance policies. There can be no assurance, however, that the agreement will be fully documented, receive court approval and/or meet all other conditions.On January 25, 2021, the Company entered into a settlement agreement with respect to a previously disclosed shareholder demand letter, covering substantially the same subject matters as the disclosed civil securities class action litigation pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (SDNY). As required by DC Superior Court administrative procedures, shareholder's counsel first filed a derivative action complaint against the individual directors and officers named in the demand letter, and the Company as nominal Defendant before filing the executed stipulation of settlement accompanied by the shareholder's brief in support of their unopposed motion to approve the settlement. Court approval of the stipulation of settlement remains pending a hearing currently scheduled for May 12, 2021.Although the Company believes the stipulation of settlement is in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders, there can be no assurance that the stipulation of settlement will be approved by the court.

(1) Tangible common equity to tangible assets (the "tangible common equity ratio"), tangible book value per common share, and the annualized return on average tangible common equity are non-GAAP financial measures derived from GAAP based amounts. The Company calculates the tangible common equity ratio by excluding the balance of intangible assets from common shareholders' equity and dividing by tangible assets. The Company calculates tangible book value per common share by dividing tangible common equity by common shares outstanding, as compared to book value per common share, which the Company calculates by dividing common shareholders' equity by common shares outstanding. The Company calculates the annualized return on average tangible common equity ratio by dividing net income available to common shareholders by average tangible common equity which is calculated by excluding the average balance of intangible assets from the average common shareholders’ equity. The Company considers this information important to shareholders as tangible equity is a measure that is consistent with the calculation of capital for bank regulatory purposes, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk based ratios and as such is useful for investors, regulators, management and others to evaluate capital adequacy and to compare against other financial institutions. The table below provides reconciliation of financial measures defined by GAAP with non-GAAP financial measures. (2) Computed by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income. The efficiency ratio measures a bank’s overhead as a percentage of its revenue.        (3) Excludes loans held for sale.

(1) Tangible common equity to tangible assets (the "tangible common equity ratio") and tangible book value per common share are non-GAAP financial measures derived from GAAP based amounts. The Company calculates the tangible common equityratio by excluding the balance of intangible assets from common shareholders' equity and dividing by tangible assets. The Company calculates tangible book value per common share by dividing tangible common equity by common shares outstanding, as compared to book value per common share, which the Company calculates by dividing common shareholders' equity by common shares outstanding. The Company considers this information important to shareholders as tangible equity is a measure that is consistent with the calculation of capital for bank regulatory purposes, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk based ratios and as such is useful for investors, regulators, management and others to evaluate capital adequacy and to compare against other financial institutions.(2) Computed by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income.(3) Excludes loans held for sale.
