Mackinac Financial Corporation Announces Six Month and Second Quarter 2016 Results
(firmenpresse) - MANISTIQUE, MI -- (Marketwired) -- 08/04/16 -- Mackinac Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: MFNC) (the "Corporation"), the bank holding company for mBank, today announced a net loss, after certain acquisition transaction expenses described below, for the second quarter 2016 of $.125 million or ($.02) per share compared to net income of $1.614 million, or $.26 per share, for the second quarter of 2015 and $1.132 million, or $.18 per share, in the 2016 first quarter. Net income for the first six months of 2016 totaled $1.007 million, or $.16 per share, after acquisition transaction expenses, compared to $2.985 million, or $.48 per share, for the same period in 2015. Total assets of the Corporation at June 30, 2016 totaled $892.238 million, compared to $735.338 million at June 30, 2015. Weighted average shares for 2016 totaled 6,231,246, compared to 6,245,553 shares in the same period of 2015.
On April 29, 2016, the company completed the acquisition of First National Bank of Eagle River ("Eagle River"). In connection with this acquisition, the Corporation had GAAP pre-tax transaction related expenses totaling $2.516 million. These one-time costs, largely associated with the early termination of the Eagle River data processing system, reduced the reported net income for the quarter by $1.712 million, or $.27 per share, on an after tax basis. While the data processing termination fee was incurred by Eagle River and factored into the purchase price paid for the assets, GAAP business combination guidance requires the Corporation to expense the entire $1.585 million in the second quarter of 2016. The Corporation did realize the entire tax benefit from the expense in the second quarter. The accounting treatment of the termination fee does not adversely affect the overall economics of the purchase. All expenses were a component of management''s price and impact analysis of the transaction. The adjusted net income for the second quarter of 2016 (exclusive of the transaction related expenses) would equate to $1.588 million, or $.25 per share. Adjusted net income for the first six months of 2016 for the Corporation is $2.770 million, or $.45 per share.
Paul D. Tobias, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation, commenting on performance, stated, "We are very pleased with our recent acquisition of Eagle River and the continued organic growth of our company through the first six months of the year. We anticipated the nonrecurring expenses that were booked along with various purchase accounting items in the second quarter in our pre-transaction due diligence. While GAAP treatment of these expenses reduced our second quarter and six month reported results, the economics of the transaction have not been negatively impacted and we expect to achieve the accretion targets we discussed in our transaction announcement in the second half of the year."
mBank, the Corporation''s subsidiary bank, recorded six-month adjusted net income of $3.270 million compared to $3.230 million in 2015. Inclusive of $2.216 million of transaction related expenses noted above ($1.462 million after tax), net income was $1.807 million for the first six months of 2016.
The April 29, 2016 acquisition of First National Bank of Eagle River, a $127 million asset bank headquartered in the Northern Wisconsin with two banking locations in Vilas County and one in Oneida County. With this transaction, total assets of the Corporation were $892 million at period end.
The May 24, 2016 announcement of the execution of a definitive agreement to acquire Niagara Bancorporation ("Niagara"), the holding company for First National Bank of Niagara (Wisconsin). At the time of the announcement, Niagara had total assets of approximately $70 million, loans of $35 million and deposits of $60 million. Niagara operates four full-service banking centers. The transaction is expected to close late in the third quarter of 2016.
Total interest income of $17.4 million through June 2016 compared to $16.7 million for the same period in 2015.
Margin remains solid, at 4.25% with disciplined pricing of loan and deposit products. Net interest income increased from $14.520 million in 2015 to $15.284 million in 2016, a 5% increase.
Credit quality remains strong with a Texas Ratio of 9.13% compared to 15.76% one year ago, and nonperforming assets of $6.813 million, or .76% of total assets, compared with $12.044 million, or 1.64% of total assets, for the same period in 2015.
Healthy new loan production of $125 million through June 2016 compared to $115 million through June 2015.
Total loans at June 30, 2016 were $725.635 million, a $110.388 million increase from $615.247 million at June 30, 2015, of which approximately $84.0 million is attributable to the Eagle River acquisition. In addition to the forementioned balance sheet totals, the Corporation services $225.746 million of sold mortgage loans and $50.501 million of sold SBA and USDA loans. Total loans under management now total $1.002 billion.
New loan production totaled $124.9 million, with the Upper Peninsula contributing $73.8 million, the Northern Lower Peninsula $24.9 million, Southeast Michigan $24.2 million, Wisconsin $2.0 million and the asset based lending division ("ABL") $5.1 million. Commercial loan production accounted for $74.3 million of the total, with consumer loans, primarily 1-4 family mortgages, totaling $50.6 million, inclusive of $31.9 million of secondary market origination. Commenting on new loan production and overall lending activities, Kelly W. George, President and CEO of mBank stated, "We are pleased with our solid loan production thus far in 2016. Given the competition among financial institutions for good loan opportunities, we like the results from the first two quarters and the way we have positioned ourselves entering the latter part of the summer, historically a very busy time of the year for loan activity at the bank. We are particularly pleased with the continued uptick in our secondary market mortgage-lending sector, which has seen an increase of 42% year over year with strong momentum. This increase has offset some the sluggish originations of our SBA and ABL during the first six months of 2016. These opportunities have lagged due to the continued compressed interest rates and credit cycle which has resulted in more lenders doing these types of loans on a conventional basis. We do have some larger SBA loans in the pipeline approved, which we hope to close and sell off the guarantees in the second half of the year to enhance non-interest income."
Nonperforming loans totaled $3.321 million, or .46% of total loans at June 30, 2016 compared to $9.652 million, or 1.57% of total loans at June 30, 2015. Total loan delinquencies greater than 30 days resided at a nominal .85%, or $6.169 million. George, commenting on credit quality stated, "Our continued diligence on all aspects of credit administration has allowed us to maintain comparatively low non-performing assets and delinquencies. While many lenders remain aggressive in this environment, we continue to adhere to our underwriting standards, which have proven successful in maintaining our solid asset quality metrics and portfolio performance, while still generating very good loan production. We also believe that entering into the Wisconsin market helps spread risk and further diversify our loan mix and are confident that our purchase accounting marks on the loans acquired in the Eagle River transaction will prove as accurate as our Peninsula acquisition accounting marks, resulting in accretive impacts."
Net interest income for the first six months of 2016 increased to $15.284 million, a 4.25% net interest margin compared to $14.520 million, or 4.35%, in 2015. Total deposits of $738.363 million June 30, 2016 included approximately $104 million in deposits acquired with the Eagle River acquisition. The growth of deposits was approximately $149 million from 2015 period end. George, commenting on core deposits and overall liquidity, stated, "The Corporation maintains a strong liquidity position to fund operations and loan growth. We will remain committed to our core banking philosophy, which emphasizes funding loan growth with core deposits to build long-term franchise value and help grow the economic bases in our local communities. We also expect further core deposit growth in our new Wisconsin markets. We will remain prudent in our overall liability pricing and funding strategies to maximize our margin without taking unnecessary longer-term interest rate risk on either side of the balance sheet. In total, we remain well positioned for a rising interest rate scenario with our current balance sheet structure."
Noninterest income, at $1.523 million, was $.397 million lower than the June 30, 2015 level of $1.974 million. Noninterest income decreased primarily because of a reduced level of fees from sales on SBA loans, along with less income from the service retained mortgage portfolio. Noninterest expense, at $15.091 million, included $2.516 million of transaction-related expenses. Excluding these charges, noninterest expense totaled $12.578 million, compared to $11.456 million in 2015. The largest increase from 2015 was in salaries and benefits primarily related to the acquisition of Eagle River and some increased governance and infrastructure costs to ensure prudent risk management and operational efficiencies throughout the Corporation. Management continues to monitor and maintain its focus on cost control as it manages a growing company in all aspects, including the near term pending First National Bank of Niagara acquisition.
Total assets of the Corporation at June 30, 2016 were $892.328 million, up $156.990 million from the $735.338 million of total assets at June 30, 2016. The Corporation''s internal growth (exclusive of the Eagle River acquisition) since June 30, 2015 amounted to approximately $31 million, or 4%. Total common shareholders'' equity at June 30, 2016 was $77.081 million, or $12.37 per share, compared to $75.746 million, or $12.15 per share at June 30, 2015. Consolidated Tier 1 Capital resides at 8.76% (well capitalized) and Total Capital at 9.39% (adequately capitalized). Bank Tier 1 Capital is 11.65% (well capitalized) and Total Capital at 12.28% (well capitalized).
In closure, Mr. Tobias stated, "Over the last 24 months we have found three acquisitions that will be accretive to earnings per share and shareholder value. These transactions create some noise in the form of transaction expenses. We are confident that our synergies, cost savings and revenue growth in new markets will be well worth the expenses incurred. Our growing earnings run rate will become more clear as the year progresses."
