By: The Bancorp, Inc. via Business Wire News Releases

April 29, 2021 at 16:05 PM EDT

The Bancorp, Inc. ("The Bancorp") (NASDAQ: TBBK), a financial holding company, today reported financial results for the first quarter of 2021.

Highlights

For the quarter ended March 31, 2021, The Bancorp earned net income of $26.1 million from continuing operations, and $0.44 diluted earnings per share from combined continuing and discontinued operations.

Return on assets and equity for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 amounted to 1.6% and 18%, respectively, compared to 1.6% and 17%, respectively, for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. (all percentages “annualized”.)

Net interest margin amounted to 3.34% for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, compared to 3.34% for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and 3.58% for the quarter ended December 31, 2020.

Net interest income increased 25% to $53.8 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, compared to $42.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

Average loans and leases, including loans at fair value, increased 37% to $4.48 billion for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, compared to $3.27 billion for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

Prepaid, debit card and related fees increased 4% to $19.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, compared to $18.5 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. Gross dollar volume (GDV), representing total spend on cards, increased 23% period over period.

SBLOC (securities backed lines of credit), IBLOC (insurance backed lines of credit) and advisor financing loans increased 45% year over year and 5% quarter over quarter to $1.68 billion at March 31, 2021.

Small Business Loans, including those held at fair value, increased 16% year over year to $692.1 million at March 31, 2021, exclusive of $190.3 million of Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) balances outstanding at that date. Those balances reflect payments on previously outstanding PPP loans and $95 million of first quarter 2021 PPP loans. There were 630 PPP loans made in first quarter 2021, generating approximate fees of $3.4 million, with 90% of such loans under $350,000. Those fees will be recognized throughout full year 2021, which is the estimated period of repayment by the U.S. government.

Leasing increased 9% year over year to $484.3 million at March 31, 2021.

The average interest rate on $6.04 billion of average deposits and interest-bearing liabilities during the first quarter of 2021 was 0.21%. Average prepaid and debit card account deposits of $4.28 billion for first quarter 2021, reflected an increase of 36% over the $3.15 billion for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.

Consolidated and The Bancorp Bank (“the Bank”) leverage ratios were 8.62% and 8.69%, respectively, at March 31, 2021. The Bancorp and its subsidiary, The Bank, remain well capitalized.

Book value per common share at March 31, 2021 was $10.42 per share compared to $8.69 at March 31, 2020, an increase of 20%, primarily as a result of retained earnings per share.

The Bancorp repurchased 594,428 shares of its common stock at an average cost of $16.82 per share during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Damian Kozlowski, The Bancorp’s Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our business plan for 2021 is in full implementation. The main focus continues to be product and platform expansion with a rigorous focus on building the best payments ecosystem in the financial services industry. Our plan includes a comprehensive and integrated analysis of the market and competitors, and the needed investments to build towards the future and create scalable core competencies that our partners can use to innovate and grow. We also continue to invest heavily in anti-money laundering and compliance to have best-in-class capabilities to meet regulatory guidance and expectations. We are currently on track to meet or exceed our financial targets for 2021. We continue to closely watch the impact of the full reopening of the US economy, Fed policy, government stimulus, interest rates and the virtualization of consumer spending to understand the likely impacts on TBBK. Currently, those impacts are mostly positive for our business model and should drive continued growth in business volumes and profitability into 2022. Lastly, our guidance target for 2021 continues to be $1.70 a share or approximately $100 million in net income. The earnings per share estimates do not include share repurchases that have been previously announced.”

The Bancorp reported net income of $26.0 million, or $0.44 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, compared to net income of $12.6 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. Tier one capital to assets (leverage), tier one capital to risk-weighted assets, total capital to risk-weighted assets and common equity-tier 1 to risk-weighted assets ratios were 8.62%, 14.81%, 15.23% and 14.81%, respectively, compared to well-capitalized minimums of 5%, 8%, 10% and 6.5%, respectively.

NOTE: In the table above, the 2021 interest on loans reflects $1.4 million of fees which are not expected to recur. The fees were earned on a short-term line of credit to another institution to initially fund PPP loans, which did not significantly increase average loans or assets. Interest on loans also includes $2.4 million of interest and fees on PPP loans, which represents the remaining recognition of fees on PPP loans made in 2020, and the initial recognition of fees on PPP loans made in 2021. Approximately $3.4 million of fees on the 2021 PPP loans is being recognized throughout full year 2021. Increases in interest earning deposits at the Federal Reserve Bank reflect increased deposits resulting from stimulus payments distributed to a large segment of the population, resulting from December 2020 federal legislation.

* The preceding table shows small business loans and small business loans held at fair value. The small business loans held at fair value are comprised of the government guaranteed portion of SBA 7a loans at the dates indicated. An increase in SBL non-real estate loans from $255.3 million to $305.4 million in the first quarter of 2021 reflected an increase of $24.5 million of PPP loans authorized by The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021. PPP loans totaled $190.3 million at March 31, 2021 and $165.7 million at December 31, 2020. In addition, the Bank provided a short-term line of credit to another institution at March 31, 2021 in the amount of $14.6 million to initially fund PPP loans, which is included in the SBL non-real estate category.

** Securities Backed Lines of Credit (SBLOC) are collateralized by marketable securities, while Insurance Backed Lines of Credit (IBLOC) are collateralized by the cash surrender value of insurance policies.

*** In 2020, we began originating loans to investment advisors for purposes of debt refinance, acquisition of another firm or internal succession. Maximum loan amounts are subject to loan to value ratios of 70%, based on third party business appraisals, but may be increased depending upon the debt service coverage ratio. Personal guarantees and blanket business liens are obtained as appropriate.

**** Included in the table above under Other consumer loans are demand deposit overdrafts reclassified as loan balances totaling $932,000 and $663,000 at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Estimated overdraft charge-offs and recoveries are reflected in the allowance for credit losses and have been immaterial.

Small business loans as of March 31, 2021

	Loan principal
	(in millions)
U.S. government guaranteed portion of SBA loans (a)	$	349
Paycheck Protection Program loans (a)		190
Commercial mortgage SBA (b)		180

Unguaranteed portion of U.S. government guaranteed loans (d)		105
Non-SBA small business loans (e)		34
Total principal	$	872
Unamortized fees and costs		10
Total small business loans	$	882

(a) This is the portion of SBA 7a loans (7a) and PPP loans which have been guaranteed by the U.S. government, and therefore are assumed to have no credit risk.

(b) Substantially all these loans are made under the SBA 504 Fixed Asset Financing program (504) which dictates origination date loan to value percentages (LTV), generally 50-60%, to which the Bank adheres.

(c) Of the $14 million in Construction SBA loans, $11 million are 504 first mortgages with an origination date LTV of 50-60% and $3 million are SBA interim loans with an approved SBA post-construction full takeout/payoff.

(d) The $105 million represents the unguaranteed portion of 7a loans which are 70% or more guaranteed by the U.S. government. 7a loans are not made on the basis of real estate LTV; however, they are subject to SBA's "All Available Collateral" rule which mandates that to the extent a borrower or its 20% or greater principals have available collateral (including personal residences), the collateral must be pledged to fully collateralize the loan, after applying SBA-determined liquidation rates. In addition, all 7a and 504 loans require the personal guaranty of all 20% or greater owners.

(e) The $34 million of non-SBA loans is comprised of a $15 million short-term line of credit to initially fund PPP loans with the remaining $19 million mainly comprised of approximately 20 conventional coffee/doughnut/carryout franchisee note purchases. The majority of purchased notes were made to multi-unit operators, are considered seasoned and have performed as agreed. A $2 million guaranty by the seller, for an 11% first loss piece, is in place until August 2021.

Additionally, the CARES Act of 2020 (“the CARES Act”) provided for six months of principal and interest payments on 7a loans which generally ended in fourth quarter 2020 or in first quarter 2021. The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, became law in December 2020 and provides for at least an additional two months of such payments on SBA 7a loans, with up to five months of payments on hotel, restaurant and other more highly impacted loans. Unlike the six months of CARES Act payments, these additional payments are capped at $9,000 per month.

Institutional banking loans outstanding at March 31, 2021

Insurance backed lines of credit (IBLOC)		505	30%
Advisor financing		59	4%
Total	$	1,681	100%

For SBLOC, we generally lend up to 50% of the value of equities and 80% for investment grade securities. While equities have fallen in excess of 30% in recent periods, the reduction in collateral value of brokerage accounts collateralizing SBLOCs generally has been less, for two reasons. First, many collateral accounts are “balanced” and accordingly have a component of debt securities, which have either not decreased in value as much as equities, or in some cases may have increased in value. Secondly, many of these accounts have the benefit of professional investment advisors who provided some protection against market downturns, through diversification and other means. Additionally, borrowers often utilize only a portion of collateral value, which lowers the percentage of principal to collateral.

Insurance backed lines of credit (IBLOC)

IBLOC loans are backed by the cash value of life insurance policies which have been assigned to us. We lend up to 100% of such cash value. Our underwriting standards require approval of the insurance companies which carry the policies backing these loans. Currently, seven insurance companies have been approved and, as of April 17, 2021, all were rated Superior (A+ or better) by AM BEST.
