Hancock Whitney reports third quarter 2023 EPS of $1.12

GULFPORT, Miss. (October 17, 2023) — Hancock Whitney Corporation (Nasdaq: HWC) today announced its financial results for the third quarter of 2023. Net income for the third quarter of 2023 totaled $97.7 million, or $1.12 per diluted common share (EPS), compared to $117.8 million, or $1.35 per diluted common share, in the second quarter of 2023. The company reported net income for the third quarter of 2022 of $135.4 million, or $1.55 per diluted common share.

Third Quarter 2023 Highlights

•
3Q23 net income impacted by “idiosyncratic” charge-off of $29.7 million
•
Pre-provision net revenue (PPNR) totaled $153.4 million, compared to $157.8 million in 2Q23
•
Deposits increased $277 million, or 4% LQA
•
Loan growth of $194 million, or 3% LQA
•
Criticized commercial loans and nonaccrual loans remain at low levels
•
ACL coverage remained solid at 1.40%
•
NIM 3.27%, compared to 3.30% in 2Q23
•
CET1 ratio estimated at 12.04%, up 21 bps linked-quarter; TCE ratio 7.34%, compared to 7.50% in 2Q23
•
Efficiency ratio 56.38%

“Third quarter of 2023 results reflect the continued strength and stability of our Company,” said John M. Hairston, President & CEO. “Despite the ongoing challenges in today’s operating environment, we were able to fully fund loan growth with client deposit growth. Our NIM compression moderated this quarter as deposit betas slowed despite the continued remix of DDAs, our funding mix improved, and we reported an improved earning asset yield. Aside from the previously disclosed idiosyncratic charge-off, our problem credit metrics remain at historically low levels and we do not see any broad weaknesses in our loan portfolio. We continue to control expenses and are focused on growing fee income. We maintained a robust ACL to loans of 1.40% and our capital remains solid with estimated tier 1 leverage ratio above 10% and tier 1 common equity above 12%. We remain well capitalized including all unrealized losses in our portfolio. As we celebrate Hancock Whitney Founders Month, we are exceptionally proud of the efforts of our team in continuing our 124-year legacy and in our commitment to the people and communities we serve.”

Loans

Total loans were $24.0 billion at September 30, 2023, up $193.8 million, or 1%, from June 30, 2023. One-time close products drove the increase in mortgage loans, which convert from construction and development loans to permanent mortgages at construction completion. CRE-income producing loans increased this quarter related to completed multifamily construction projects, which converted from construction and development loans to permanent CRE-income producing at construction completion, and slowing loan prepayments.

Average loans totaled $23.8 billion for the third quarter of 2023, up $175.7 million, or 1%, linked-quarter. Management expects 2023 period-end loan growth to be in the range of low- to mid-single digits compared to year-end 2022.

Deposits

Total deposits at September 30, 2023 were $30.3 billion, up $276.8 million, or 1%, from June 30, 2023. The growth in deposits was primarily due to an increase of interest-bearing transaction and savings deposits mostly due to competitive rates offered and an increase in time deposits related to a shift from DDA deposits, offset by a decrease in noninterest bearing DDAs and a decrease in interest-bearing public funds related to seasonal activity.

DDAs totaled $11.6 billion at September 30, 2023, down $545.4 million, or 4%, from June 30, 2023 and comprised 38% of total period-end deposits. Interest-bearing transaction and savings deposits totaled $10.7 billion at the end of the third quarter of 2023, an increase of $229.4 million, or 2%, linked-quarter. Compared to June 30, 2023, retail time deposits of $4.0 billion were up $670.3 million, or 20%, and brokered deposits were $1.2 billion, virtually unchanged compared to the prior quarter. Interest-bearing public fund deposits decreased $72.2 million, or 2%, linked-quarter, ending September 30, 2023 at $2.9 billion.

Average deposits for the third quarter of 2023 were $29.8 billion, up $384.3 million, or 1%, linked-quarter. Management expects 2023 period-end deposit level growth to be flat to low single digits compared to year-end 2022.

Asset Quality

The total allowance for credit losses (ACL) was $335.9 million at September 30, 2023, down $9.8 million, or 3%, from June 30, 2023. During the third quarter of 2023, the company recorded a provision for credit losses of $28.5 million, compared to a provision for credit losses of $7.6 million in the second quarter of 2023. There were $38.3 million of net charge-offs in the third quarter of 2023, or 0.64% of average total loans on an annualized basis, compared to net charge-offs of $3.4 million, or 0.06% of average total loans in the second quarter of 2023. The ratio of ACL to period-end loans was 1.40% at September 30, 2023, compared to 1.45% at June 30, 2023.

C riticized commercial loans and nonaccrual loans remained at low levels at September 30, 2023. Criticized commercial loans totaled $275.1 million, or 1.46% of total commercial loans, at September 30, 2023, compared to $302.2 million, or 1.62% of total commercial loans at June 30, 2023. Nonaccrual loans totaled $60.3 million, or 0.25% of total loans, at September 30, 2023, compared to $78.2 million, or 0.33% of total loans, at June 30, 2023. ORE and foreclosed assets were $4.5 million, up $2.4 million, linked-quarter.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin (NIM)

Net interest income (TE) for the third quarter of 2023 was $272.1 million, a decrease of $4.7 million, or 2%, from the second quarter of 2023. The net interest margin (NIM) (TE) was 3.27% in the third quarter of 2023, down 3 bps linked-quarter. A change in the mix of earning assets and loan yields (+16 bps) and decreased short term borrowing costs (+5 bps) led to a 21 basis point improvement in the NIM, offset by the impact of deposit remix and rates (-24 bps). Additional NIM detail and guidance is included in the third quarter of 2023 earnings investor deck.

Average earning assets were $33.1 billion for the third quarter of 2023, down $482.3 million, or 1%, from the second quarter of 2023.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income totaled $86.0 million for the third quarter of 2023, up $2.8 million, or 3%, from the second quarter of 2023.

Service charges on deposits were up $0.8 million, or 4%, from the second quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily related to higher account activity. Bank card and ATM fees were down $0.4 million, or 2%, from the second quarter of 2023.

Investment and annuity income and insurance fees were up $0.3 million, or 3%, linked-quarter. Trust fees were down $0.8 million, or 5% linked-quarter, related to 2Q23 seasonal tax accounting fees.

Other noninterest income totaled $15.4 million, up $2.6 million, or 20%, from the second quarter of 2023. The increase in other noninterest income was primarily related to increased FHLB dividends, SBIC income and loan-related fee income from specialty lines of business.

Personnel expense totaled $116.3 million in the third quarter of 2023, up $1.4 million, or 1%, linked-quarter.

Net occupancy and equipment expense totaled $18.2 million in the third quarter of 2023, up $0.5 million, or 3%, from the second quarter of 2023.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This news release includes non-GAAP financial measures to describe Hancock Whitney’s performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered alternatives to GAAP-basis financial statements and other bank holding companies may define or calculate these non-GAAP measures or similar measures differently. The reconciliations of those measures to GAAP measures are provided either in the financial tables or in Appendix A thereto.

Consistent with the provisions of subpart 229.1400 of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation S-K, “Disclosures by Bank and Savings and Loan Registrants,” the company presents net interest income, net interest margin and efficiency ratios on a fully taxable equivalent (“TE”) basis. The TE basis adjusts for the tax-favored status of net interest income from certain loans and investments using the statutory federal tax rate to increase tax-exempt interest income to a taxable equivalent basis. The company believes this measure to be the preferred industry measurement of net interest income and it enhances comparability of net interest income arising from taxable and tax-exempt sources.

4

The company presents certain additional non-GAAP financial measures to assist the reader with a better understanding of the Company’s performance period over period, as well as to provide investors with assistance in understanding the success management has experienced in executing its strategic initiatives. These non-GAAP measures may reference the concept “operating.” We use the term “operating” to describe a financial measure that excludes income or expense considered to be nonoperating in nature. Items identified as nonoperating are those that, when excluded from a reported financial measure, provide management or the reader with a measure that may be more indicative of forward-looking trends in our business.

We define Operating Pre-Provision Net Revenue as total revenue (te) less noninterest expense, excluding nonoperating items. Management believes that operating pre-provision net revenue is a useful financial measure because it enables investors and others to assess the Company’s ability to generate capital to cover credit losses through a credit cycle.
