Metropolitan Bank Holding Corp. Reports Sustained Growth in Earnings, Loans and Deposits


Metropolitan Bank Holding Corp. (the "Company") (NYSE: MCB), the holding company for Metropolitan Commercial Bank (the "Bank"), today reported net income of $7.7 million, or $0.90 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2019, as compared to $7.1 million, or $0.85 per diluted common share, for the third quarter of 2018.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company reported net income of $22.3 million, or $2.63 per diluted common share, compared to $19.3 million, or $2.31 per diluted common share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Financial Highlights for the third quarter of 2019 include:

Mark R. DeFazio, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "I am pleased with MCB's sustainable growth across several key financial measures. This growth continues to add to shareholder and franchise value. Although the Bank's net interest margin compressed during the third quarter, as compared to the prior sequential quarter, the catalyst for this compression was a significant increase in both our securities portfolio and overnight Federal Funds balance due to an increase of deposits."

Mr. DeFazio continued, "Notwithstanding the compression in net interest margin, MCB was able to maintain loan yields consistent with prior quarters and decreased our efficiency ratio to 53.89% in the third quarter from 57.49% for the second quarter of 2019."

Balance Sheet

The Company had total assets of $3.24 billion at September 30, 2019, compared with $2.18 billion at December 31, 2018. Loans, net of deferred fees and unamortized costs, increased to $2.50 billion at September 30, 2019 as compared to $1.87 billion at December 31, 2018. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Bank's loan production was $267.7 million and $839.7 million, respectively, as compared to $146.9 million and $528.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. The increase in loan production in 2019 was due primarily to expanding existing lending relationships, particularly in skilled nursing facilities, as well as developing new relationships. MCB was able to fund the increased level of loan production with deposits, which increased $1.05 billion, or 63.5%, during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Total cash and cash equivalents increased $202.4 million, or 86.9%, to $435.4 million at September 30, 2019, as compared to $233.0 million at December 31, 2018. Total securities, primarily those classified as available-for-sale, increased $219.7 million, or 591.9% to $256.8 million at September 30, 2019, as compared to $37.1 million at December 31, 2018. The increases in cash and cash equivalents and securities reflect the strong growth in deposits of $1.05 billion that exceeded growth in loans of $631.5 million. At September 30, 2019, $254.6 million of securities available for sale were pledged as collateral for certain deposits and were therefore considered encumbered as of September 30, 2019. There were no securities pledged at December 31, 2018.

Total deposits increased $1.05 billion, or 63.5%, to $2.71 billion at September 30, 2019, as compared to $1.66 billion at December 31, 2018. This was due to increases of $802.1 million in interest-bearing demand deposits and $242.5 million in non-interest-bearing deposits. $928.5 million of deposits were money market, savings and other interest-bearing specialty deposits.

Federal Home Loan Bank of New York ("FHLB") advances decreased by $41.0 million, or 22.2%, to $144.0 million at September 30, 2019, as compared to $185.0 million at December 31, 2018, as the deposit growth during the year was sufficient to support the Bank's loan growth and to reduce the level of borrowings.

Total stockholders' equity was $291.0 million at September 30, 2019, as compared to $264.5 million at December 31, 2018. The increase of $26.5 million was primarily due to net income of $22.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Metropolitan Commercial Bank meets all the requirements to be considered "Well-Capitalized" under applicable regulatory guidelines. At September 30, 2019, total Commercial Real Estate Loans ("CRE") were 390.6% of risk-based capital, as compared to 312.4% at December 31, 2018.

Net Interest Income

Interest income increased $13.6 million to $35.5 million for the third quarter of 2019, as compared to $21.9 million for the third quarter of 2018. This increase was due primarily to increases of $11.0 million in interest income on loans, $1.4 million in interest on available-for-sale ("AFS") securities and $1.2 million in interest on overnight deposits. The increase in interest income on loans was due to a $779.8 million increase in the average balance of loans to $2.42 billion and a 13 basis point increase in the average yield to 5.03% for the third quarter of 2019, as compared to an average balance of $1.64 billion and an average yield of 4.90% for the third quarter of 2018. The increase in interest on AFS securities was due to a $210.5 million increase in average balance to $238.4 million for the third quarter of 2019, as compared to $27.8 million for the third quarter of 2018. Additionally, the average yield on AFS securities increased 42 basis points to 2.55% for third quarter of 2019, as compared to 2.13% for third quarter of 2018. The increase in interest on overnight deposits was due to an increase of $170.8 million in the average balance to $411.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $240.6 million for the same period in 2018. The average yield on overnight deposits increased 27 basis points to 2.30% for three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to 2.03% for the same period in 2018.

Interest income increased $32.7 million to $93.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $60.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This increase was due primarily to increases of $28.8 million in interest income on loans, $1.6 million in interest on AFS securities, and $2.0 million in interest on overnight deposits. The increase in interest income on loans was due to a $657.8 million increase in the average balance of loans to $2.21 billion and a 31 basis point increase in the average yield to 5.09% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to an average balance of $1.55 billion and an average yield of 4.78% on loans for the same period in 2018. The increase in interest on AFS securities was due to an $80.0 million increase in average balance of AFS securities to $108.5 million for the nine months ended 2019, as compared to $28.5 million for the same period of 2018. Additionally, the average yield on AFS securities increased 45 basis points to 2.54% for nine months ended 2019 as compared to 2.09% for the same period in 2018. The increase in interest on overnight deposits was due to an increase of $52.4 million in the average balance to $324.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $272.0 million for the same period in 2018. The average yield on overnight deposits increased 53 basis points to 2.40% for nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to 1.87% for the same period in 2018.

Interest expense was $9.4 million for the third quarter of 2019, as compared to $3.6 million for the third quarter of 2018, an increase of $5.8 million due primarily to a $5.3 million increase in interest on deposits. The increase in interest expense on deposits was due primarily to an $810.9 million increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits to $1.54 billion for the third quarter of 2019 and a 63 basis point increase in the average cost of deposits to 2.03%, as compared to an average balance of interest-bearing deposits of $728.5 million and an average cost of 1.40% for the same period in 2018.

Interest expense increased $15.4 million to $23.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $8.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This increase was due primarily to a $12.7 million increase in interest on deposits and a $2.7 million increase in interest on borrowings. The increase in interest expense on deposits was due primarily to a $593.6 million increase in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits to $1.24 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and 79 basis point increase in the average cost of deposits to 1.98%, as compared to an average balance of $650.6 billion and an average cost of 1.19% for the same period in 2018. Interest expense on borrowings increased primarily due to increase in the average balance of borrowings of $128.3 million to $218.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $90.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, offset by a 56 basis point decrease in the average cost to 3.19% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to 3.75% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Net interest margin decreased 50 basis points to 3.26% for the third quarter of 2019 from 3.76% for the third quarter of 2018. Total average interest-earning assets increased $1.17 billion for the third quarter of 2019, as compared to the third quarter of 2018 and the total yield on average interest-earning assets decreased 2 basis points to 4.47% in the third quarter of 2019 as compared to 4.49% in the same period in 2018. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 46 basis points to 2.15% for the third quarter of 2019, as compared to 1.69% for the same period in 2018. The decrease in net interest margin was also due to a change in the mix of interest-earning assets in the third quarter of 2019 as compared to the same period in 2018. The average balances of securities available for sale increased $210.5 million to $238.4 million for the third quarter of 2019 as compared to $27.8 million for the third quarter of 2018. In addition, the average balance of overnight deposits increased $170.8 million for those same periods. As a result of these increases, the average balance of loans represented 78% of total interest-earning average assets for the third quarter of 2019, as compared to 85% for the third quarter of 2018. In addition, the ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 1.78x for the third quarter of 2019, as compared to 2.32x for the third quarter of 2018.

Net interest margin decreased 23 basis points to 3.47% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 from 3.70% for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Total average interest-earning assets increased $788.5 million to $2.68 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $1.89 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, and the total yield on average interest-earning assets increased 36 basis points to 4.65% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to 4.29% for the same period in 2018. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 67 basis points to 2.17% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to 1.50% for the same period in 2018. As the yield curve flattened and inverted over the last year, the cost of deposits and short-term borrowings grew at a higher rate than the yield on average interest-earning assets, resulting in a lower net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to the same period in 2018. In addition, the ratio of average interest-earning assets to average interest-bearing liabilities decreased to 1.83x for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to 2.55x for the same period in 2018.

Asset Quality

Non-performing assets consist of non-accrual loans, accruing loans that are 90 days or more past due, consumer loans placed in forbearance with payments past due over 90 days and still accruing, non-accrual troubled debt restructurings and real estate owned ("REO") that has been acquired in partial or full satisfaction of loan obligations or upon foreclosure. The Bank had no REO properties at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Non-accrual loans increased by $3.9 million due primarily to one one-to-four-family loan in the amount of $2.4 million, which became non-accrual in June 2019. As of September 2019, the loan was current; however, the loan will remain in non-accrual status until the borrower makes regular payments for a period of six consecutive months. The loan-to-value ratio for this loan was 49.5%.

The credit in the provision for loan losses for the third quarter of 2018 reflects a recovery of $1.5 million related to taxi medallion loans. In addition, the provision for the third quarter of 2019 reflects loan production of $252.7 million in the third quarter of 2019, as compared to $146.9 million in the third quarter of 2018.

The provision for loan losses for the nine months ended 2019 was a $1.9 million, as compared to $2.3 million for same period in 2018. The provision for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 consisted of a $6.2 million provision for loan losses recorded as a result of the record loan growth during 2019, partially offset by a negative provision due to recoveries of $4.3 million, of which $4.2 million related to the taxi medallion loans.

Non-interest income increased $688,000 or 34.2% to $2.7 million in the third quarter of 2019, as compared to $2.0 million in the third quarter of 2018. This increase was due primarily to a $402,000 increase in prepaid third-party debit card income and a $159,000 increase in service charges in deposits. The increase in debit card income reflects the growth in the debit card business.

Non-interest income decreased by $2.2 million, or 22.1%, to $7.8 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $10.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, primarily due to decreases of $869,000 decrease in service charges on deposit accounts and $2.1 million in other service charges and fees, offset by an increase $655,000 in debit card income. The decrease in service charges on deposit accounts and other service charges and fees were due to a decrease in wire fees and foreign currency conversion fees, which were at an elevated level during first quarter of 2018 as customers, particularly those in the digital currency business, were transferring funds from their global corporate accounts back into their U.S. accounts with the Bank. The increase in debit card income reflects the growth in the debit card business.

Non-interest expense increased $5.1 million to $15.5 million for the third quarter of 2019 as compared to $10.4 million for the third quarter of 2018. Compensation and benefits increased $1.6 million to $7.9 million for the third quarter of 2019 as compared to $6.3 million for the third quarter of 2018. This increase was due primarily to an increase in the average number of full-time employees to 168 for the third quarter of 2019, as compared to 139 for the third quarter of 2018. For the third quarter of 2019, licensing fees related to specialty deposit products amounted to $2.9 million as compared to $265,000 for the third quarter of 2018, an increase of $2.6 million. Specialty deposits are designed for clients who are in possession of or have discretion over large deposits such as, but not limited to, property management companies, title companies and bankruptcy trustees. Specialty deposits amounted to $1.26 billion at September 30, 2019, as compared to $87.1 million at September 30, 2018. Bank premises and equipment increased $517,000 to $1.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $1.3 million for the same period in 2018, primarily due to the Company taking possession of new space, which is under renovation, at its headquarters in 99 Park Ave., New York, New York in August 2019. The additional rent amounted to $400,000 and it is anticipated that rent expense will include $600,000 for the new space for the fourth quarter of 2019. When renovations on the new space are complete and the Company vacates its existing space, likely to be in the first quarter of 2020, the Company will cease rent payments on the former space resulting in a reduction of rent expense of approximately $195,000 per quarter.

Non-interest expense increased $11.0 million to $42.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $31.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Compensation and benefits increased $4.6 million to $23.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $18.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. This increase was due primarily to an increase in the average number of full-time employees to 162 for nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to 137 for the same period in 2018. Technology costs decreased $599,000 to $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as compared to $2.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, licensing fees related to specialty deposit products amounted to $5.7 million as compared to $574,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018, an increase of $5.2 million. Bank premises and equipment increased $734,000 to $4.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, as compared to $3.7 million for the same period in 2018, due primarily to the additional rent of $400,000 for the new space at the Company's headquarters.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures

In addition to the results presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), this earnings release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful information to investors in understanding the Company's operating performance and trends. These non-GAAP measures have inherent limitations and are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of results reported under GAAP. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Reconciliations of non-GAAP/adjusted financial measures disclosed in this earnings release to the comparable GAAP measures are provided in the accompanying tables.
