Independent Bank Group Reports Fourth Quarter and Year-End Financial Results
MCKINNEY, Texas, Jan. 27, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Independent Bank Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:IBTX), the holding company for Independent Bank, today announced net income available to common shareholders of $10.5 million, or $0.58 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2015 compared to $10.0 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 and $8.1 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2015.
For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company reported net income available to common shareholders of $38.5 million (or $2.21 per diluted share) compared to net income of $28.8 million (or $1.85 per diluted share) for the year ended December 31, 2014.
Highlights
Solid earnings with increases across major income related metrics:
Core earnings were $11.4 million, or $0.63 per diluted share
Net interest income increased 10.7% compared to third quarter 2015
Noninterest income increased 12.0% compared to third quarter 2015
Strong organic loan growth of 21.0% on an annualized basis for the quarter and 16.1% for the year. Total loan growth for the year was 24.6% which includes loans acquired in the Grand Bank acquisition.
Asset quality remains strong with continued careful monitoring of the energy and Houston portfolios. The nonperforming assets to total assets ratio was 0.36% and the nonperforming loans to total loans ratio was 0.37% at December 31, 2015. Net charge offs were less than 0.01% annualized for the quarter.
Continued creation of long-term shareholder value with tangible book value and earnings per share increasing 10.5% and 19.5% for the year, respectively. Quarterly dividends also increased from $0.06 per share to $0.08 per share during 2015.
Continued execution of acquisition strategy through the completion of the Grand Bank acquisition on November 1, 2015.
Independent Bank Group Chairman and Chief Executive Officer David Brooks said, “This was a good quarter for Independent Bank Group. We are pleased to report solid earnings. We also continued to drive strong organic loan growth and advance our acquisition strategy. We remain focused on maintaining strong credit quality, especially with respect to our energy and Houston portfolios. Our energy portfolio has decreased to 5% of total loans and the Houston portfolio continues to have exemplary credit metrics. While we recognize the challenges presented by the downward cycle in energy prices, our continued view is that Texas is much stronger, has greater diversity and is more resilient than in past energy downturns. We remain optimistic about our prospects and look forward to a strong 2016.”
Fourth Quarter 2015 Operating Results
Net Interest Income
Net interest income was $42.2 million for fourth quarter 2015 compared to $38.2 million for fourth quarter 2014 and $38.1 million for third quarter 2015. The increases in net interest income from the previous year and linked quarter were primarily due to increased average loan balances resulting from organic loan growth as well as loans acquired in the Grand Bank acquisition.
The yield on interest-earning assets was 4.46% for fourth quarter 2015 compared to 4.82% for fourth quarter 2014 and 4.62% for third quarter 2015. The decrease from the prior year is attributable to an eight basis point decrease in accretion income on acquired loans, decreased yields on taxable investment securities and lower average loan rates. The decrease from the linked quarter is related primarily to the lower rates on loans and lower loan fees, including lower rates and fees on loans acquired in the Grand Bank transaction.
The cost of interest bearing liabilities, including borrowings, was 0.66% for fourth quarter 2015 compared to 0.71% for fourth quarter 2014 and 0.70% for third quarter 2015. The decrease from the prior year is primarily due to payoffs of higher rate FHLB advances as well as the retirement of higher rate debentures during 2015. The decrease from the linked quarter is due to a slight decrease in the rates paid on deposits, including lower cost deposits assumed in the Grand Bank transaction.
The net interest margin was 3.96% for fourth quarter 2015 compared to 4.28% for fourth quarter 2014 and 4.08% for third quarter 2015. These decreases are primarily related to lower loan accretion income and increased liquidity acquired in the Grand Bank acquisition.
The average balance of total interest-earning assets grew by $683.5 million and totaled $4.220 billion compared to $3.536 billion at December 31, 2014 and grew by $513.7 million compared to $3.706 billion at September 30, 2015. This increase from fourth quarter 2014 and the linked quarter is due to organic growth and the Grand Bank transaction.
Noninterest Income
Total noninterest income increased $293 thousand compared to fourth quarter 2014 and increased $455 thousand compared to third quarter 2015.
The increase from the prior year reflects a $300 thousand increase in service charges on deposit accounts, an increase of $58 thousand in gains on sale of other real estate and an increase of $237 in other noninterest income offset by a decrease of $318 thousand in securities gains. A large portion of the increase in other noninterest income is related to increased earning credits on correspondent accounts and an increase in wealth management fees during the quarter.
The increase from third quarter 2015 relates to an increase of $390 thousand in gain (loss) on sale of premises and equipment and an increase of $332 thousand in other noninterest income. Offsetting the increases were decreases of $166 thousand in mortgage fee income and a decrease of $116 thousand in gain on sale of loans. A large portion of the increase in other noninterest income is due to an increase in wealth management fees.
Noninterest Expense
Total noninterest expense increased $3.6 million compared to fourth quarter 2014 and increased $2.7 million compared to third quarter 2015. Overall increases in noninterest expense are primarily due to the increase in number of employees and operating costs resulting from the Grand Bank transaction.
The increase in noninterest expense compared to fourth quarter 2014 is due primarily to an increase of $2.0 million in salaries and benefits expense, an increase of $155 thousand in FDIC assessment, an increase of $408 thousand in professional fees and an increase of $897 thousand in other noninterest expense, offset by a decrease of $371 thousand in acquisition expenses. The increase in professional fees is primarily due to increased legal fees on existing litigation inherited in the Bank of Houston transaction. As noted below, the Company changed how it reported certain maintenance agreements during the fourth quarter. Without this change in reporting, occupancy expense would have increased approximately $300 thousand primarily due to the Grand Bank transaction.
The increase from the linked quarter is primarily related to increases of $1.6 million in salaries and benefits, $165 thousand in FDIC assessment, $342 thousand in legal and professional fees and $334 thousand in acquisition expenses. Offsetting these increases were decreases of $187 thousand in advertising and public relations expenses and $103 thousand in net other real estate owned expenses.
The increase in data processing expense of $584 thousand from the prior year and $458 thousand from the linked quarter is the result of a change in reporting of IT related maintenance agreements and service costs that had previously been reported in occupancy expense. Actual IT related expenses did not significantly increase from the third quarter.
Provision for Loan Losses
Provision for loan loss expense was $2.0 million for the fourth quarter 2015, an increase of $219 thousand compared to $1.8 million for fourth quarter 2014 and a decrease of $2.0 million compared to $3.9 million for the third quarter 2015. The increase in provision expense from the prior year is primarily due to organic loan growth during the respective period as well as a moderate increase in general reserves for the energy portfolio in recognition of the continued decline in commodity prices. The decrease from third quarter 2015 was due to an additional allocation for our energy portfolio in the third quarter, including an impairment of $1.2 million on a previously identified nonperforming energy loan.
The allowance for loan losses was $27.0 million, or 0.68% of total loans, at December 31, 2015, compared to $18.6 million, or 0.58% of total loans at December 31, 2014, and compared to $25.1 million, or 0.71% of total loans at September 30, 2015. The increase in the allowance from the prior year is due to organic loan growth, specific allocations on impaired assets, as well as an increase in general reserves to serve as a significant addition to the energy related allowance. The slight decrease in the ratio of the allowance to total loans compared to the linked quarter was due to the increase in the loan portfolio resulting from the Grand Bank acquisition. The acquired loans do not carry over a related allowance as these loans are recorded at fair value at acquisition date consistent with accounting guidance. As of December 31, 2015, the energy related allowance constituted 4.1% of the total energy production portfolio.
Income Taxes
Federal income tax expense of $5.3 million was recorded for the quarter ended December 31, 2015, an effective rate of 33.6% compared to tax expense of $5.4 million and an effective rate of 34.7% for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 and tax expense of $3.9 million and an effective rate of 32.4% for the quarter ended September 30, 2015. The elevated tax rates in fourth quarters 2015 and 2014 were due to non-deductible acquisition expenses relating to the Grand Bank and Houston City Bancshares acquisitions, respectively.
Fourth Quarter 2015 Balance Sheet Highlights:
Loans
Total loans held for investment were $3.989 billion at December 31, 2015 compared to $3.529 billion at September 30, 2015 and to $3.201 billion at December 31, 2014. This represented total loan growth of $460.1 million for the quarter, or 51.7% on an annualized basis. Organic loan growth for the fourth quarter was $186.5 million, a 21.0% increase from September 30, 2015. Loan growth from the prior year was 24.6% (approximately 16.1% of which was organic growth with the remainder resulting from the Grand Bank acquisition).
The energy production portfolio was $182.5 million (4.6% of total loans) at December 31, 2015 made up of 26 credits and 25 relationships. This represented a $27.1 million reduction from the previous quarter. As of December 31, 2015, there were two nonperforming classified energy credits with balances totaling $7.1 million and one performing classified energy credit with a balance of $17.1 million. Oil field service related loans, which were inherited through acquisitions, represented an additional $22.4 million (0.6% of loans) at December 31, 2015. All energy related credits are being closely monitored and the Company is in close contact with energy borrowers to maintain a real time understanding of these borrowers’ financial condition and ability to positively respond to changing market conditions.
Asset Quality
Total nonperforming assets increased to $18.1 million, or 0.36% of total assets at December 31, 2015 from $15.1 million, or 0.34% of total assets at September 30, 2015 and from $14.9 million, or 0.36% of total assets at December 31, 2014.
Total nonperforming loans increased to $14.9 million, or 0.37% of total loans at December 31, 2015 compared to $11.7 million, or 0.33% of total loans at September 30, 2015 and increased from $10.1 million, or 0.32% of total loans at December 31, 2014.
The increase in nonperforming assets and nonperforming loans from the linked quarter is primarily due to the addition of a $2.9 million energy loan that was placed on nonaccrual status in the fourth quarter 2015.
The net increase in nonperforming loans and nonperforming assets from the prior year is due to the above-mentioned $2.9 energy loan being placed on nonaccrual in the fourth quarter 2015 and another energy loan totaling $4.2 million that was added to nonaccrual in the first quarter 2015, offset by the removal of a $1.4 million commercial loan from nonaccrual status due to the repossession of collateral. The net increase in nonperforming assets was also offset by the net disposition of $2.2 million in other real estate properties during 2015.
Deposits and Borrowings
Total deposits were $4.028 billion at December 31, 2015 compared to $3.534 billion at September 30, 2015 and compared to $3.250 billion at December 31, 2014.
The average cost of interest bearing deposits was 0.45% for both the fourth quarter 2015 and fourth quarter 2014 and down slightly from 0.48% for the third quarter 2015.
Total borrowings (other than junior subordinated debentures) were $371.3 million at December 31, 2015, an increase of $36.8 million from September 30, 2015 and an increase of $65.1 million from December 31, 2014. These movements reflect changes in the balances of short term FHLB advances during the applicable periods.
Capital
The tangible common equity to tangible assets and the Tier 1 capital to average assets ratios were 6.87% and 8.28% (estimated), respectively, at December 31, 2015 compared to 7.15% and 8.67%, respectively, at September 30, 2015 and 7.07% and 8.15%, respectively, at December 31, 2014. The total stockholders’ equity to total assets ratio was 12.41%, 12.69% and 13.09% at December 31, 2015, September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. Total capital to risk weighted assets was 11.13% at December 31, 2015 (estimated) compared to 11.86% at September 30, 2015 and 12.59% at December 31, 2014. The declines in capital ratios from prior periods is due to growth in assets during the quarter, including those acquired in the Grand Bank transaction.
Book value and tangible book value per common share were $32.79 and $17.85, respectively, at December 31, 2015 compared to $31.81 and $17.72, respectively, at September 30, 2015 and $30.35 and $16.15, respectively, at December 31, 2014.
Return on tangible equity (on an annualized basis) was 13.37% for the fourth quarter 2015 compared to 10.75% and 14.08% for the third quarter 2015 and fourth quarter 2014, respectively.
Return on average assets and return on average equity (on an annualized basis) were 0.86% and 7.28%, respectively, for fourth quarter 2015 compared to 0.97% and 7.65%, respectively, for fourth quarter 2014 and 0.76% and 5.96%, respectively, for third quarter 2015.

On January 14, 2016, the Company redeemed all 23,938.35 outstanding shares of its Senior Non-Cumulative Perpetual Small Business Lending Fund Series A Preferred Stock held by the Treasury for a total redemption price of $23,946,994.40. The redemption was funded by a dividend from Independent Bank. Both the Company and Independent Bank remain well capitalized after the redemption.

Forward-Looking Statements
The numbers as of and for the quarter ended December 31, 2015 are unaudited. From time to time, our comments and releases may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Act”). Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “forecast,” “guidance,” “intends,” “targeted,” “continue,” “remain,” “should,” “may,” “plans,” “estimates,” “will,” “will continue,” “will remain,” variations on such words or phrases, or similar references to future occurrences or events in future periods; however, such words are not the exclusive means of identifying such statements. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: (i) projections of revenues, expenses, income or loss, earnings or loss per share, and other financial items; (ii) statements of plans, objectives, and expectations of Independent Bank Group or its management or Board of Directors; (iii) statements of future economic performance; and (iv) statements of assumptions underlying such statements. Forward-looking statements are based on Independent Bank Group’s current expectations and assumptions regarding its business, the economy, and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Independent Bank Group’s actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements, which are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future performance. Factors that could cause actual results to differ from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: (1) local, regional, national, and international economic conditions and the impact they may have on us and our customers and our assessment of that impact; (2) volatility and disruption in national and international financial markets; (3) government intervention in the U.S. financial system, whether through changes in the discount rate or money supply or otherwise; (4) changes in the level of non-performing assets and charge-offs; (5) changes in estimates of future reserve requirements based upon the periodic review thereof under relevant regulatory and accounting requirements; (6) adverse conditions in the securities markets that lead to impairment in the value of securities in our investment portfolio; (7) inflation, deflation, changes in market interest rates, developments in the securities market, and monetary fluctuations; (8) the timely development and acceptance of new products and services and perceived overall value of these products and services by customers; (9) changes in consumer spending, borrowings, and savings habits; (10) technological changes; (11) the ability to increase market share and control expenses; (12) changes in the competitive environment among banks, bank holding companies, and other financial service providers; (13) the effect of changes in laws and regulations (including laws and regulations concerning taxes, banking, securities, and insurance) with which we and our subsidiaries must comply; (14) the effect of changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the regulatory agencies, as well as the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, the Financial Accounting Standards Board, and other accounting standard setters; (15) the costs and effects of legal and regulatory developments including the resolution of legal proceedings; and (16) our success at managing the risks involved in the foregoing items and (17) the other factors that are described in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2015, the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 27, 2015, under the heading “Risk Factors”, and other reports and statements filed by the Company with the SEC. Any forward-looking statement made by the Company in this release speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict all of them. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. These measures and ratios include “core earnings”, “tangible book value”, “tangible book value per common share”, “core efficiency ratio”, “Tier 1 capital to average assets”, “Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets”, “tangible common equity to tangible assets”, “net interest margin excluding purchase accounting accretion”, "return on tangible equity", “adjusted return on average assets” and “adjusted return on average equity” and are supplemental measures that are not required by, or are not presented in accordance with, accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. We consider the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios to be useful for financial operational decision making and useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain expenditures or assets that we believe are not indicative of our primary business operating results. We believe that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods.
We believe that these measures provide useful information to management and investors that is supplementary to our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows computed in accordance with GAAP; however we acknowledge that our financial measures have a number of limitations relative to GAAP financial measures. Certain non-GAAP financial measures exclude items of income, expenditures, expenses, assets, or liabilities, including provisions for loan losses and the effect of goodwill, core deposit intangibles and income from accretion on acquired loans arising from purchase accounting adjustments, that we believe cause certain aspects of our results of operations or financial condition to be not indicative of our primary operating results. All of these items significantly impact our financial statements. Additionally, the items that we exclude in our adjustments are not necessarily consistent with the items that our peers may exclude from their results of operations and key financial measures and therefore may limit the comparability of similarly named financial measures and ratios. We compensate for these limitations by providing the equivalent GAAP measures whenever we present the non-GAAP financial measures and by including a reconciliation of the impact of the components adjusted for in the non-GAAP financial measure so that both measures and the individual components may be considered when analyzing our performance.
A reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures is included at the end of the financial statements tables.
