HOUSTON, April 29, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Allegiance Bancshares, Inc. (NASDAQ: ABTX) (Allegiance), the holding company of Allegiance Bank (the "Bank"), today reported record net income of $18.0 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.89 for the first quarter 2021 compared to net income of $3.5 million and diluted earnings per share of $0.17 for the first quarter 2020.   The first quarter 2021 results were primarily driven by increased net interest income primarily due to lower funding costs and lower provision expense.

“Allegiance is off to a very productive start in 2021. We are proud to report record quarterly earnings results while continuing to maintain stable asset quality,” said Steve Retzloff, Allegiance’s Chief Executive Officer. “We reached record highs in terms of net income, diluted earnings per share, return on average assets and preserved a solid net interest margin all due to the successful execution of our core strategies,” continued Retzloff.

“These exceptional results highlight our team’s unparalleled and coordinated effort to assist our customers during the PPP process by funding over $1.04 billion of loans since the beginning of the pandemic. A high percentage of these loans were to businesses who were not previously customers and who experienced, first hand, the value of our high service culture. We look forward to solidifying these relationships over the coming months. Our team is excited about the future of Allegiance and continues to believe that providing remarkable service to our customers and our community sets us apart as the Houston region’s premier community bank and will continue to drive future value,” concluded Retzloff.

First Quarter 2021 Results

Net interest income before the provision for credit losses in the first quarter 2021 increased $10.7 million, or 23.7%, to $55.7 million from $45.0 million for the first quarter 2020 and increased $796 thousand, or 1.4%, from $54.9 million in the fourth quarter 2020. These increases were primarily due to changes in the volume and relative mix of the underlying assets and liabilities, the impact of PPP loans as well as lower costs on interest-bearing liabilities. The net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis increased 4 basis points to 4.19% for the first quarter 2021 from 4.15% for the first quarter 2020 and increased 5 basis points from 4.14% for the fourth quarter 2020.

Noninterest income for the first quarter 2021 was $1.7 million, a decrease of $989 thousand, or 36.3%, compared to $2.7 million for the first quarter 2020 and decreased $283 thousand, or 14.0%, compared to $2.0 million for the fourth quarter 2020. First quarter 2021 noninterest income reflected lower transactional fee income, significantly lower correspondent bank rebates, lower gains on sales of securities and higher losses on sales of other real estate when compared to first quarter 2020.  

Noninterest expense for the first quarter 2021 increased $2.5 million, or 7.8%, to $34.9 million from $32.4 million for the first quarter 2020 and increased $2.2 million, or 6.6%, compared to the fourth quarter 2020 primarily due to increases in salaries and benefits.

In the first quarter 2021, Allegiance’s efficiency ratio decreased to 60.85% compared to 68.13% for the first quarter 2020 and increased from 57.53% for the fourth quarter 2020. First quarter 2021 annualized returns on average assets, average equity and average tangible equity were 1.18%, 9.59% and 14.03%, respectively, compared to 0.29%, 1.98% and 3.02%, respectively, for the first quarter 2020. Annualized returns on average assets, average equity and average tangible equity for the fourth quarter 2020 were 1.05%, 8.38% and 12.32%, respectively. Return on average tangible equity is a non-GAAP measure. Please refer to the non-GAAP reconciliation on page 9.  

Financial Condition

Total assets at March 31, 2021 increased $380.9 million, or 25.2% (annualized), to $6.43 billion compared to $6.05 billion at December 31, 2020 and increased $1.43 billion, or 28.6%, compared to $5.00 billion at March 31, 2020, primarily due to the origination of PPP loans and growth in the securities portfolio.

Total loans at March 31, 2021 increased $167.4 million, or 14.9% (annualized), to $4.66 billion compared to $4.49 billion at December 31, 2020, primarily due to the origination of $331.9 million of PPP loans, and increased $703.6 million, or 17.8%, compared to $3.96 billion at March 31, 2020. Core loans, which exclude the mortgage warehouse portfolio and PPP loans, increased $8.9 million, or 0.9% (annualized), to $3.93 billion at March 31, 2021 from $3.92 billion at December 31, 2020 and decreased $23.8 million, or 0.6%, from $3.95 billion at March 31, 2020.

Deposits at March 31, 2021 increased $385.7 million, or 30.9% (annualized), to $5.37 billion compared to $4.99 billion at December 31, 2020 and increased $1.42 billion, or 35.9%, compared to $3.95 billion at March 31, 2020.

Asset Quality

Nonperforming assets totaled $35.6 million, or 0.55% of total assets, at March 31, 2021, compared to $38.1 million, or 0.63% of total assets, at December 31, 2020 and $34.2 million, or 0.68% of total assets, at March 31, 2020. The allowance for credit losses on loans as a percentage of total loans was 1.13% at March 31, 2021 and 1.18% at December 31, 2020.

The provision for credit losses for the first quarter 2021 was $639 thousand compared to $4.4 million for the fourth quarter 2020 and $11.0 million for the first quarter 2020. The increased provision during 2020 reflected the uncertainty surrounding unemployment, the economic impact caused by COVID-19 and the economic effects related to the sustained lower crude oil prices.

First quarter 2021 net charge-offs were $345 thousand, or 0.03% (annualized) of average loans, a decrease from net charge-offs of $4.3 million, or 0.37% (annualized) of average loans, for the fourth quarter 2020 and $2.9 million, or 0.30% (annualized) of average loans, for the first quarter 2020.

The Company is carefully monitoring the hotel, restaurant and bar, and oil and gas portfolios, which it believes are at heightened risk due to the current economic environment. Loan balances in the hotel industry, excluding PPP loans, totaled $125.2 million, or 2.7% of total loans, at March 31, 2021, of which $6.2 million were on nonaccrual. At March 31, 2021, restaurant and bar industry loans, excluding PPP loans, totaled $116.2 million, or 2.5%, of total loans, of which $486 thousand were on nonaccrual. At March 31, 2021, the Company’s allowance for credit losses on loans allocated to its hotel portfolio was 3.5% of total hotel loans and its restaurant and bar portfolio was 1.3% of total restaurant and bar loans. The oil and gas portfolio, excluding PPP loans, totaled $72.5 million, or 1.6%, of total loans at March 31, 2021, of which $3.6 million were on nonaccrual. At March 31, 2021, the allowance for credit losses on loans allocated to the oil and gas loan portfolio was 3.4% of total oil and gas loans.

The Company granted initial principal and interest deferrals on outstanding loan balances to borrowers in connection with the COVID-19 relief provided by the CARES Act and subsequent deferrals upon request and after meeting certain conditions. These deferrals were generally no more than 90 days in duration. As of March 31, 2021, 65 loans with outstanding loan balances of $62.1 million remained on deferral.

Allegiance Bancshares, Inc.
GAAP Reconciliation and Management’s Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(Unaudited)

Allegiance’s management uses certain non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures to evaluate its performance. Allegiance believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing Allegiance’s performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods. Specifically, Allegiance reviews tangible book value per share, return on average tangible equity and the ratio of tangible equity to tangible assets for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Allegiance has included in this Earnings Release information relating to these non-GAAP financial measures for the applicable periods presented. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which Allegiance calculates the non-GAAP financial measures may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.
