Community Trust Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: CTBI) reports earnings for the second quarter 2018 of $11.6 million, or $0.66 per basic share, compared to $15.8 million, or $0.89 per basic share, earned during the first quarter 2018 and $11.5 million, or $0.65 per basic share, earned during the second quarter 2017. Earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2018 were $27.4 million, or $1.55 per basic share, compared to $22.8 million or $1.29 per basic share earned during the six months ended June 30, 2017.

As disclosed by CTBI in Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, and previous Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, CTB will be required to make certain customer reimbursements related to two deposit add-on products. CTBI further disclosed in such filings that management had established a related accrual, and that the actual reimbursement amount could materially vary from the amount management had evaluated as most likely. On June 14, 2018, CTBI filed a Form 8-K disclosing an increase in the accrual from $1.2 million to $4.75 million to reflect a change in the amount management determined to be the most likely amount as a result of communications with regulatory agency representatives. As a result of the increased accrual, a charge to earnings was reflected in the second quarter 2018 financial results of $2.8 million after-tax, or $0.16 per share.

2nd Quarter 2018 Highlights

  • Net interest income for the quarter of $35.1 million was an increase of $0.6 million, or 1.6%, from first quarter 2018 and $0.9 million, or 2.7%, from prior year second quarter.
  • Provision for loan losses for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 increased $1.0 million from prior quarter but decreased $0.8 million from prior year same quarter.
  • Our loan portfolio increased $50.8 million, an annualized 6.5%, during the quarter and $81.7 million, or 2.6%, from June 30, 2017.
  • Net loan charge-offs for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 were $1.3 million, or 0.17% of average loans annualized, compared to $1.9 million, or 0.25%, experienced for the first quarter 2018 and $1.3 million, or 0.18%, for the second quarter 2017.
  • Nonperforming loans at $22.0 million decreased $3.9 million from March 31, 2018 and $6.0 million from June 30, 2017. Nonperforming assets at $52.3 million decreased $5.7 million from March 31, 2018 and $8.3 million from June 30, 2017.
  • Deposits, including repurchase agreements, decreased $6.3 million during the quarter but increased $195.4 million from June 30, 2017.
  • Noninterest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 of $13.7 million was an increase of $0.4 million, or 3.2%, from prior quarter and $1.4 million, or 11.6%, from prior year same quarter. The increase in noninterest income was primarily due to a gain on the sale of a partnership interest resulting from a low income housing tax credit recapture and an increase in deposit service charges.
  • Noninterest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 of $32.4 million increased $3.8 million, or 13.1%, from prior quarter, and $4.9 million, or 17.7%, from prior year same quarter. The variance in noninterest expense from prior quarter was primarily due to the above mentioned increase in the customer reimbursement accrual. Additionally, personnel expense increased from prior year same quarter with increases in bonuses and the cost of group medical and life insurance.
  • Income tax expense continues to be positively impacted by the change in the corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21%. We utilize various tax exempt investments and loans, including municipal bonds, bank owned life insurance, and low income housing projects, to lower our effective income tax rate. With the current tax laws, our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was 16% compared to 28% for the six months ended June 30, 2017.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the quarter of $35.1 million was an increase of $0.6 million, or 1.6%, from first quarter 2018 and $0.9 million, or 2.7%, from prior year second quarter. Our net interest margin at 3.61% decreased 4 basis points from prior quarter and 7 basis points from prior year same quarter, while our average earning assets increased $57.8 million and $145.5 million, respectively, during those same periods. Our yield on average earning assets increased 3 basis points from prior quarter and 18 basis points from prior year same quarter, and our cost of funds increased 11 basis points from prior quarter and 37 basis points from prior year same quarter. Our ratio of average loans to deposits, including repurchase agreements, was 88.1% for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 compared to 88.6% for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 and 89.9% for the quarter ended June 30, 2017.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 of $13.7 million was an increase of $0.4 million, or 3.2%, from prior quarter and $1.4 million, or 11.6%, from prior year same quarter. The increase in noninterest income was primarily due to a gain on the sale of a partnership interest totaling $1.0 million related to one of our tax credit investments. As a result of the sale of this interest, a portion of the tax credits previously claimed was recaptured during the current quarter totaling $0.8 million, which was recorded in income tax expense. The variance in noninterest income from prior quarter was also impacted by a $0.3 million increase in deposit service charges and a $0.3 million decrease in losses on the sale of securities, offset by a $1.0 million decrease in bank owned life insurance income and a $0.2 million decrease in loan related fees as a result of fluctuations in the fair value adjustments of our mortgage servicing rights. The increase from prior year same quarter was also positively impacted by a $0.2 million increase in trust revenue. Additionally, noninterest income for the second quarter 2017 included a $0.6 million gain on the repurchase of trust preferred securities. Noninterest income for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was a $3.2 million, or 13.2%, increase from prior year.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 of $32.4 million increased $3.8 million, or 13.1%, from prior quarter, and $4.9 million, or 17.7%, from prior year same quarter. The variance in noninterest expense from prior quarter was primarily due to the above mentioned $3.6 million increase in the customer reimbursement accrual. Personnel expense increased from prior year same quarter with increases in bonuses ($0.7 million) and the cost of group medical and life insurance ($0.4 million). Noninterest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2018 was $61.1 million, a $5.9 million or 10.7% increase over the first six months of 2017, primarily due to the same items detailed above.

Balance Sheet Review

CTBI’s total assets at $4.2 billion increased $9.4 million, or 0.9% annualized, from March 31, 2018 and $124.1 million, or 3.0%, from June 30, 2017. Loans outstanding at June 30, 2018 were $3.2 billion, an increase of $50.8 million, or an annualized 6.5%, from March 31, 2018 and $81.7 million, or 2.6%, from June 30, 2017. We experienced an increase during the quarter of $16.1 million in the commercial loan portfolio, $5.7 million in the residential loan portfolio, $20.2 million in the indirect loan portfolio, and $8.8 million in the consumer direct loan portfolio. CTBI’s investment portfolio decreased $19.1 million, or an annualized 12.7%, from March 31, 2018 and $24.8 million, or 4.1%, from June 30, 2017. Deposits, including repurchase agreements, at $3.6 billion decreased $6.3 million, or an annualized 0.7%, from March 31, 2018 but increased $195.4 million, or 5.8%, from June 30, 2017.

Shareholders’ equity at June 30, 2018 was $542.2 million, a 3.5% annualized increase from the $537.5 million at March 31, 2018 and a 5.3% increase from the $514.9 million at June 30, 2017. CTBI’s annualized dividend yield to shareholders as of June 30, 2018 was 2.64%.

Asset Quality

CTBI’s total nonperforming loans, not including troubled debt restructurings, were $22.0 million, or 0.69% of total loans, at June 30, 2018 compared to $25.9 million, or 0.83% of total loans, at March 31, 2018 and $28.0 million, or 0.91% of total loans, at June 30, 2017. Accruing loans 90+ days past due decreased $1.8 million from prior quarter and $1.2 million from June 30, 2017. Nonaccrual loans decreased $2.1 million during the quarter and $4.8 million from June 30, 2017. Accruing loans 30-89 days past due at $23.5 million was an increase of $6.6 million from March 31, 2018 and $8.3 million from June 30, 2017. The increase in past due loans 30-89 days is due to one relationship which is well-collateralized, and no loss is expected. Our loan portfolio management processes focus on the immediate identification, management, and resolution of problem loans to maximize recovery and minimize loss. Impaired loans, loans not expected to meet contractual principal and interest payments other than insignificant delays, at June 30, 2018 totaled $46.7 million, a $1.5 million decrease from the $48.2 million at March 31, 2018 and a $4.0 million decrease from the $50.7 million at June 30, 2017.

Our level of foreclosed properties at $30.3 million at June 30, 2018 was a $1.7 million decrease from the $32.0 million at March 31, 2018 and a $2.4 million decrease from the $32.6 million at June 30, 2017. Sales of foreclosed properties for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 totaled $2.4 million while new foreclosed properties totaled $1.6 million. At June 30, 2018, the book value of properties under contracts to sell was $1.9 million; however, the closings had not occurred at quarter-end. Write-downs on foreclosed properties for the second quarter 2018 totaled $0.9 million compared to $0.5 million in the first quarter 2018 and $1.4 million in the second quarter 2017.

Net loan charge-offs for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 were $1.3 million, or 0.17% of average loans annualized, compared to $1.9 million, or 0.25%, experienced for the first quarter 2018 and $1.3 million, or 0.18%, for the second quarter 2017. Of the net charge-offs for the quarter, $0.5 million were in commercial loans, $0.4 million were in indirect auto loans, $0.2 million were in residential loans, and $0.2 million were in consumer direct loans. Allocations to loan loss reserves were $1.9 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2018 compared to $0.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 and $2.8 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2017. Our reserve coverage (allowance for loan and lease loss reserve to nonperforming loans) at June 30, 2018 was 162.6% compared to 135.6% at March 31, 2018 and 132.6% at June 30, 2017. Our loan loss reserve as a percentage of total loans outstanding remained at 1.13% from March 31, 2018 to June 30, 2018, down from the 1.20% at June 30, 2017.
