Insights
Mercantile Bank 's Q3 2024 results demonstrate resilience in a challenging economic environment. Key highlights include:
- Net income of
$19.6 million ($1.22 per diluted share) - Strong local deposit growth of
33.7% annualized in Q3 - Commercial loan expansion of
12.9% annualized in Q3 - Healthy net interest margin of
3.52% - Robust asset quality with nonperforming assets at only
0.2% of total assets
The bank's focus on relationship banking is paying off, evidenced by growth in both deposits and loans. The reduction in the loan-to-deposit ratio from
Mercantile Bank's Q3 results reveal several market trends worth noting:
- The shift in deposit mix towards higher-cost accounts reflects broader market dynamics as customers seek better yields.
- The increase in mortgage banking income (with
80% of loans originated for sale vs.64% last year) suggests a strategic pivot to capitalize on market conditions. - Strong growth in treasury management and payroll service fees indicates successful cross-selling and deepening of client relationships.
- The low level of nonperforming assets (
0.2% of total assets) outperforms industry averages, showcasing strong risk management.
These trends position Mercantile well in the competitive banking landscape. The bank's ability to grow deposits and loans simultaneously, while maintaining asset quality, demonstrates a balanced approach to growth. However, investors should monitor the impact of rising interest rates on the bank's cost of funds and net interest margin in future quarters.
Robust local deposit and commercial loan growth and sustained strength in asset quality metrics highlight quarter
"We are very pleased to report another quarter of strong financial performance, especially when taking into consideration the challenges associated with recent economic and operating conditions," said Ray Reitsma, President and Chief Executive Officer of Mercantile. "The notable increases in local deposits and commercial loans during the quarter depict our continuing focus on relationship banking, meeting the needs of current customers, and attracting new clients. Our strong operating results reflect an ongoing healthy net interest margin, solid growth in several noninterest income revenue streams, and sustained strength in asset quality metrics, along with the local deposit base and commercial loan portfolio expansions. The growth in local deposits provided for a reduction in our loan-to-deposit ratio, the lowering of which remains a key strategic initiative."
Third quarter highlights include:
- Robust local deposit growth
- Strong commercial loan portfolio expansion
- Ongoing strength in commercial loan pipeline
- Noteworthy increases in several noninterest income revenue streams
- Continuing low levels of nonperforming assets, past due loans, and loan charge-offs
- Solid capital position
Operating Results
Net revenue, consisting of net interest income and noninterest income, was
The net interest margin was 3.52 percent in the third quarter of 2024, down from 3.98 percent in the prior-year third quarter. The yield on average earning assets was 6.08 percent during the current-year third quarter, an increase from 5.78 percent during the respective 2023 period. The improvement primarily resulted from an increased yield on loans. The yield on loans was 6.69 percent during the third quarter of 2024, up from 6.37 percent during the third quarter of 2023 mainly due to higher interest rates on variable-rate commercial loans resulting from the Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC") raising the targeted federal funds rate in an effort to curb elevated inflation levels and a significant level of commercial loans being originated over the past 15 months in the higher interest rate environment. The FOMC increased the targeted federal funds rate by 25 basis points in July of 2023, at which time average variable-rate commercial loans represented approximately 65 percent of average total commercial loans. The positive impact of the rate hike was partially mitigated by the FOMC's lowering of the targeted federal funds rate by 50 basis points in mid-September 2024.
The cost of funds was 2.56 percent in the third quarter of 2024, up from 1.80 percent in the third quarter of 2023 primarily due to higher costs of deposits and borrowed funds, reflecting the impact of the rising interest rate environment. A change in funding mix, mainly consisting of a decline in noninterest-bearing and lower-cost deposits and an increase in higher-cost money market accounts and time deposits resulting from new deposit relationships, growth in existing deposit relationships, and deposit migration, also contributed to the higher cost of funds.

Mr. Reitsma commented, "The notable growth in mortgage banking income in large part reflects the ongoing success of a strategic initiative to increase the percentage of loans originated with the intent to sell, along with a significant increase in loan production. We are delighted with the increase in treasury management fees and payroll service income, which mainly stemmed from the expanded use of products and services. Our net interest margin, while declining as expected due to an increased cost of funds, remained healthy and in line with historical levels during the third quarter. Controlling overhead costs while meeting balance sheet growth objectives and continuing to provide our clients with exceptional service remains a top priority."
Balance Sheet
As of September 30, 2024, total assets were
As of September 30, 2024, unfunded commitments on commercial construction and development loans, which are expected to be funded over the next 12 to 18 months, and residential construction loans, which are expected to be largely funded over the next 12 months, totaled approximately
Commercial and industrial loans and owner-occupied commercial real estate loans combined represented approximately 56 percent of total commercial loans as of September 30, 2024, a level that has remained relatively consistent with prior periods and in line with management's expectations.
Total deposits equaled
Mr. Reitsma noted, "The expansion of the commercial loan portfolio, reflecting a combination of an increase in established customer relationships and new client acquisition, during the third quarter and first nine months of 2024 transpired in spite of elevated levels of partial paydowns and payoffs. As demonstrated by the growth in commercial loans and local deposits, along with the increase in treasury management fees, our sales teams have done a fantastic job of expanding existing relationships and obtaining the full banking relationships of new customers. Based on the strength of our current commercial loan pipeline and amount of credit availability for commercial construction and development loans, we believe originations in future periods will remain solid. Local deposit generation will remain an important strategic initiative as we continue our efforts to lower our loan-to-deposit ratio and provide funding for anticipated loan growth."
Asset Quality
Nonperforming assets totaled
Mr. Reitsma remarked, "Our sustained strength in asset quality metrics reflects our unwavering commitment to underwriting loans in a prudent and disciplined manner. Nonperforming assets, although rising during the first nine months of 2024 largely due to the deterioration of two non-real-estate-related commercial loan relationships, remain at a low level. As reflected by ongoing low levels of past due loans, nonaccrual loans, and loan charge-offs, our commercial borrowers have continued to meet the challenges arising from shifting economic and operating environments, including higher interest rates and the related increase in debt service requirements. We meticulously scrutinize our commercial loan portfolio for signs of systemic weakness and believe our ongoing efforts to identify credit issues and implement feasible workout plans will help constrain the impact of any such observed issues on our overall financial condition. Our residential and consumer loan portfolios continue to perform well as evidenced by sustained low delinquency levels and the lack of any identified systemic credit weaknesses."
Capital Position
Shareholders' equity totaled
All of Mercantile Bank's investments are categorized as available-for-sale. As of September 30, 2024, the net unrealized loss on these investments totaled
Mercantile reported 16,142,433 total shares outstanding as of September 30, 2024.
Mr. Reitsma concluded, "We are very pleased that our sustained strength in financial performance enabled us to continue our regular cash dividend program, and we remain committed to building shareholder value through competitive dividend yields. Our strong capital levels and operating results, coupled with anticipated commercial loan portfolio expansion, position us to effectively meet the challenges arising from the recent economic and operating environments. As demonstrated by the increases in loans and local deposits during the first nine months of 2024, our community banking approach and focus on developing mutually beneficial relationships have been successful in retaining existing customers and attracting new clients."
