(Nasdaq/NGS: PNFP) reported net income per diluted common share of $1.61 for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, compared to net income per diluted common share of $0.37 for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, an increase of approximately 335 percent. Excluding other real estate (ORE) expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and ORE expense and gains and losses on the sale of investment securities for the three months ended March 31, 2020, net income per diluted common share was $1.61 for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $0.39 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, a year-over-year increase of nearly 313 percent.

"We are very pleased with our operating results for the first quarter of this year," said M. Terry Turner, Pinnacle's president and chief executive officer. "To report these results right out of the gate provides us even more optimism regarding our franchise and the difference that the high-performance culture we have built makes. Just recently, Fortune magazine, in concert with Great Place to Work®, notified us that we ranked as the 26th best place to work in 2020 in all of the United States in all industries.

"I believe our reputation as a great place to work has fueled our recruiting success against the large regional and national franchises we target. Following two incredibly successful years of recruiting experienced revenue producers, during the first quarter of 2021 we were off to another fast start, attracting 25 new revenue producers to our firm. We are excited to report diluted earnings per share of $1.61, which is the most we have ever reported for a calendar quarter in our 20 year history. We also increased our book value per common share to $62.33, which is also the highest it has ever been and up nearly 8 percent since March 31, 2020. Over that same period our tangible book value per common share grew by more than 14 percent to $37.88 per common share, also a record. Our hiring pipelines remain strong, and we remain optimistic as we seek to produce both outsized earnings and tangible book value per share growth in 2021."

BALANCE SHEET GROWTH:

  • Loans at March 31, 2021 were $23.1 billion, an increase of $2.7 billion from March 31, 2020, reflecting year-over-year growth of 13.2 percent. Loans at March 31, 2021 increased approximately $662.2 million from Dec. 31, 2020.
    • Loans at March 31, 2021 include approximately $2.2 billion of loans issued pursuant to the Small Business Administration’s (SBA’s) Paycheck Protection Program (PPP). The average yield on these loans was 4.51 percent for the first quarter of 2021, inclusive of $17.8 million of loan fee accretion recognized in the quarter. At March 31, 2021, there were $63.3 million in SBA PPP loan fees remaining, which should be accreted into net interest income through mid-year 2026 as these loans are repaid and/or are forgiven under the PPP.
      • PPP loans increased by $422.5 million between Dec. 31, 2020 and March 31, 2021 due to the reopening and extension of the PPP lending programs by the SBA.
      • Excluding PPP loans, total loans increased by $239.7 million during the same period, or 4.6 percent on an annualized basis.
    • Average loans were $22.8 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2021, up $323.4 million from the three months ended Dec. 31, 2020, a linked-quarter annualized growth rate of 5.7 percent.
      • Excluding the impact of $2.1 billion of average PPP loans outstanding during both the three months ended March 31, 2021 and Dec. 31, 2020, average loans were $20.7 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2021, up $369.8 million from $20.4 billion for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2020, a linked-quarter annualized growth rate of 7.2 percent.
    • At March 31, 2021, the remaining discount associated with fair value accounting adjustments on acquired loans was $24.0 million, compared to $27.8 million at Dec. 31, 2020.
  • Deposits at March 31, 2021 were a record $28.3 billion, an increase of $7.0 billion from March 31, 2020, reflecting year-over-year growth of 32.6 percent. Deposits at March 31, 2021 increased $587.4 million from Dec. 31, 2020, reflecting a linked-quarter annualized growth rate of 8.5 percent.
    • Average deposits were $27.6 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $27.2 billion for the three months ended Dec. 31, 2020, a linked-quarter annualized growth rate of 6.3 percent.
    • Core deposits were $25.0 billion at March 31, 2021, compared to $18.6 billion at March 31, 2020 and $23.5 billion at Dec. 31, 2020. The linked-quarter annualized growth rate of core deposits in the first quarter of 2021 was 24.8 percent.

"Despite the significant headwinds of excess borrower liquidity, CRE paydowns and limited loan demand, excluding PPP, we were able to report annualized loan growth for the first quarter of 4.6 percent," Turner said. "We are optimistic that loan growth should pick up in the back half of the year as the revenue producers we have hired gain momentum and believe high-single digit loan growth in 2021 remains possible, excluding the impact of the PPP program.

"Additionally, core deposit growth continued at a rapid pace during the first quarter of 2021. We believe that meaningful core deposit growth will continue this year as a post-COVID economy begins to emerge and more government stimulus finds its way into our clients’ accounts."

    • Excluding the adjustments described above for both 2021 and 2020 and FHLB restructuring charges and hedge termination charges in the fourth quarter of 2020, return on average tangible common equity amounted to 17.16 percent for the first quarter of 2021, compared to 17.11 percent for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 4.71 percent for the first quarter of 2020.

"As to our core profitability metrics, we are again reporting another solid quarter," said Harold R. Carpenter, Pinnacle's chief financial officer. "Our aim for 2021 will be top-quartile peer performance with respect to return on tangible common equity, as well as tangible book value per share growth. We believe we are off to a great start in 2021."

MAINTAINING A STRONG BALANCE SHEET:

  • Net charge-offs were $11.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, compared to $10.8 million for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2020 and $10.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 were 0.20 percent, compared to 0.19 percent for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2020 and 0.20 percent for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.
  • Nonperforming assets were 0.36 percent of total loans and ORE at March 31, 2021, compared to 0.38 percent at Dec. 31, 2020 and 0.48 percent at March 31, 2020. Nonperforming assets were $82.8 million at March 31, 2021, compared to $86.2 million at Dec. 31, 2020 and $98.2 million at March 31, 2020.
  • The classified asset ratio at March 31, 2021 was 7.3 percent, compared to 8.1 percent at Dec. 31, 2020 and 12.0 percent at March 31, 2020. Classified assets were $244.9 million at March 31, 2021, compared to $262.1 million at Dec. 31, 2020 and $350.1 million at March 31, 2020.
  • The allowance for credit losses represented 1.22 percent of total loans at March 31, 2021, compared to 1.27 percent at Dec. 31, 2020 and 1.09 percent at March 31, 2020. Excluding PPP loans, the allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.35 percent at March 31, 2021 and 1.38 percent at Dec. 31, 2020.
    • The ratio of the allowance for credit losses to nonperforming loans at March 31, 2021 was 389.4 percent, compared to 386.1 percent at Dec. 31, 2020 and 313.5 percent at March 31, 2020.
    • Provision for credit losses was $7.2 million in the first quarter of 2021, compared to $7.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 and $99.9 million in the first quarter of 2020. First quarter 2020 provision for credit losses was impacted by the economic deterioration related to COVID-19.

"We continue to be pleased with our credit metrics and believe our performance is linked to our hiring philosophy and the client selection it yields, as well as the significant effort our relationship managers and credit officers have put forth over the past several quarters," Carpenter said. "Our credit metrics for the first quarter either improved or were consistent with those of last quarter. Classified and nonperforming ratios continued their downward trend again this quarter. Our allowance for credit losses to total loans ratio also decreased by 0.05 percent this quarter. Our current belief is that, with an improving economy there is likely to be further reductions in this ratio over the next several quarters."

REVENUES:

  • Revenues for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 were $315.6 million, an increase of $11.2 million from the $304.4 million recognized in the fourth quarter of 2020, an annualized growth rate of 14.7 percent. Revenues were up $51.7 million from the first quarter of 2020, a year-over-year growth rate of 19.6 percent.
    • Revenue per fully diluted common share was at an all-time record of $4.17 for the three months ended March 31, 2021, compared to $4.03 for the fourth quarter of 2020 and $3.47 for the first quarter of 2020, a 20.2 percent year-over-year growth rate.
  • Net interest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 was $222.9 million, compared to $221.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2020 and $193.6 million for the first quarter of 2020, a year-over-year growth rate of 15.1 percent. Net interest margin was 3.02 percent for the first quarter of 2021, compared to 2.97 percent for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 3.28 percent for the first quarter of 2020.
    • Impacting the firm’s net interest income and net interest margin in the first quarter of 2021 and fourth quarter of 2020 were both the PPP and the firm’s maintenance of additional on-balance sheet liquidity as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Average PPP loans outstanding during both the first quarter of 2021 and fourth quarter of 2020 were $2.1 billion. Additionally, during those same periods, the firm maintained approximately $2.8 billion and $3.0 billion, respectively, in average excess liquidity, primarily in Federal funds sold and other cash equivalent balances. The firm estimates its first quarter 2021 net interest margin was negatively impacted by approximately 27 basis points as a result of PPP loans and excess liquidity, compared to approximately 30 basis points for the fourth quarter of 2020.
    • Included in net interest income for the first quarter of 2021 was $3.8 million of discount accretion associated with fair value adjustments, compared to $4.4 million of discount accretion recognized in the fourth quarter of 2020 and $7.4 million in the first quarter of 2020. The firm's net interest margin was positively impacted by approximately 5 basis points, 6 basis points and 13 basis points, respectively, because of fair value adjustment discount accretion in each of the first quarter of 2021 and the fourth and first quarters of 2020. There remains $17.0 million of purchase accounting discount accretion as of March 31, 2021.
  • Noninterest income for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 was $92.7 million, compared to $83.4 million for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2020, a linked-quarter annualized increase of 44.4 percent. Compared to $70.4 million for the first quarter of 2020, noninterest income grew 31.7 percent year-over-year.
    • Wealth management revenues, which include investment, trust and insurance services, were $16.1 million for the first quarter of 2021, compared to $14.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, a linked-quarter annualized increase of 51.2 percent. Compared to $16.6 million for the first quarter of 2020, wealth management revenues were down 3.3 percent.
    • Income from the firm's investment in BHG was $29.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, up from $24.3 million for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2020 and $15.6 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020.
    • Net gains on mortgage loans sold were $13.7 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2021, up from $12.4 million for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2020. Net gains on mortgage loans sold were up 59.2 percent from $8.6 million during the quarter ended March 31, 2020. This dramatic year-over-year growth primarily reflects market conditions as well as the addition of revenue producing mortgage originators over the last 24 months.
    • Other noninterest income was $25.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, compared to $24.0 million for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2020 and $20.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, a year-over-year increase of 28.0 percent. Contributing to the year-over-year growth were $3.4 million in gains on other equity investments in the first quarter of 2021.

"We are reporting a net interest margin for the first quarter of 3.02 percent, which we estimate was negatively impacted by approximately 0.21 percent for PPP loans, excess liquidity and purchase accounting accretion, compared to a net interest margin of 2.97 percent in the fourth quarter of 2020, which we estimate was negatively impacted by the same items by 0.22 percent," Carpenter said. "As a result, we are very pleased with our net interest margin in the first quarter. Our average deposit costs were 0.26 percent in the first quarter, down 7 basis points from the fourth quarter, while our average total funding costs were down 9 basis points between the same two periods. We also reduced our wholesale funding base with reductions of approximately $1.0 billion of brokered funds and FHLB borrowings during the first quarter. We will continue to explore opportunities to deploy excess liquidity and thus improve our operating margins further.

"We had another strong fee quarter in the first quarter. Our wealth management businesses of investment, trust and insurance services had a very strong first quarter, reporting fee revenues of $16.1 million in the first quarter compared to $14.3 million in the fourth quarter, a linked-quarter annualized growth rate of over 50 percent. Mortgage and BHG both outperformed our initial expectations for the quarter. Our outlook for BHG in 2021 has improved since January 2021. We now believe BHG's 2021 revenues will exceed our previous expectations. We also believe our robust markets and increased number of mortgage originators will provide for another solid year for our mortgage origination business."

  • Noninterest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2021 was $154.7 million, compared to $163.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 and $137.3 million in the first quarter of 2020, reflecting a year-over-year increase of 12.6 percent.

      • Incentive costs related to the firm’s annual cash incentive plan amounted to approximately $18.2 million in the first quarter of 2021, compared to $13.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 and $4.7 million in the first quarter of 2020.
      • Incentive costs related to the Company’s equity compensation plans amounted to approximately $5.4 million in the first quarter of 2021 compared to $4.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 and $5.5 million first quarter of 2020.
    • Noninterest expense categories, other than salaries and employee benefits, were $52.0 million in the first quarter of 2021, compared to $73.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2020 and $56.9 million in the first quarter of 2020, reflecting a year-over-year decrease of 8.6 percent.
      • Expenses attributable to off-balance sheet reserves and costs attributable to FHLB restructuring and hedge termination charges were $17.0 million in the fourth quarter of last year, compared to no expense in the first quarter of 2021 and $5.2 million of expenses associated with off-balance sheet reserves in the first quarter of 2020.
  • The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2021 was 18.4 percent, compared to 17.2 percent for the fourth quarter of 2020 and a benefit of 6.2 percent for the first quarter of 2020.

"As anticipated, we reported a large increase in linked quarter salaries and benefit costs in the first quarter due to $4.8 million in additional incentive costs from the fourth quarter of last year," Carpenter said. "As we reported last year, the pandemic negatively impacted our results and resulted in reduced cash and equity incentives charges in 2020. We anticipate an increase in our performance-based cash incentive awards in 2021, and through the first quarter have increased the accrual for a payout at above target levels."

Pinnacle Financial believes that these non-GAAP financial measures facilitate making period-to-period comparisons and are meaningful indications of its operating performance. In addition, because intangible assets such as goodwill and the core deposit intangible, and the other items excluded each vary extensively from company to company, Pinnacle Financial believes that the presentation of this information allows investors to more easily compare Pinnacle Financial's results to the results of other companies. Pinnacle Financial's management utilizes this non-GAAP financial information to compare Pinnacle Financial's operating performance for 2021 versus certain periods in 2020 and to internally prepared projections.

(1) Average balances of nonperforming loans are included in the above amounts.

(2) Yields computed on tax-exempt instruments on a tax equivalent basis and included $7.3 million of taxable equivalent income for the three months ended March 31, 2021 compared to $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The tax-exempt benefit has been reduced by the projected impact of tax-exempt income that will be disallowed pursuant to IRS Regulations as of and for the then current period presented.

(3) Yields realized on interest-bearing assets less the rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. The net interest spread calculation excludes the impact of demand deposits. Had the impact of demand deposits been included, the net interest spread for the three months ended March 31, 2021 would have been 3.00% compared to a net interest spread of 3.22% for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

(4) Net interest margin is the result of annualized net interest income calculated on a tax equivalent basis divided by average interest-earning assets for the period.

SELECTED QUARTERLY FINANCIAL DATA – UNAUDITED

 

1. Ratios are presented on an annualized basis.

2. Net interest margin is the result of net interest income on a tax equivalent basis divided by average interest earning assets.

3. Total revenue is equal to the sum of net interest income and noninterest income.

4. Efficiency ratios are calculated by dividing noninterest expense by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income.

5. Troubled debt restructurings include loans where the Company, as a result of the borrower's financial difficulties, has granted a credit concession to the borrower (i.e., interest only payments for a significant period of time, extending the maturity of the loan, etc.). All of these loans continue to accrue interest at the contractual rate. Troubled debt restructurings do not include, beginning with the quarter ended March 31, 2020, loans for which the Company has granted a deferral of interest and/or principal or other modification pursuant to the guidance issued by the FDIC providing for relief under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act.

6. Average risk ratings are based on an internal loan review system which assigns a numeric value of 10 to 100 to all loans to commercial entities based on their underlying risk characteristics as of the end of each quarter. The risk rating scale was changed to allow for granularity, if needed, in criticized and classified risk ratings to distinguish accrual status or structural loan issues. A "10" risk rating is assigned to credits that exhibit Excellent risk characteristics, "20" exhibit Very Good risk characteristics, "30" Good, "40" Satisfactory, "50" Acceptable or Average, "60" Watch List, "70" Criticized, "80" Classified or Substandard, "90" Doubtful and "100" Loss (which are charged-off immediately). Additionally, loans rated "80" or worse that are not nonperforming or restructured loans are considered potential problem loans. Generally, consumer loans are not subjected to internal risk ratings.

7. Annualized net loan charge-offs to average loans ratios are computed by annualizing quarter-to-date net loan charge-offs and dividing the result by average loans for the quarter-to-date period.

8. Capital ratios are calculated using regulatory reporting regulations enacted for such period and are defined as follows:

Equity to total assets – End of period total stockholders' equity as a percentage of end of period assets.

Tangible common equity to tangible assets - End of period total stockholders' equity less end of period preferred stock, goodwill, core deposit and other intangibles as a percentage of end of period assets less end of period goodwill, core deposit and other intangibles.

Leverage – Tier I capital (pursuant to risk-based capital guidelines) as a percentage of adjusted average assets.

Tier I risk-based – Tier I capital (pursuant to risk-based capital guidelines) as a percentage of total risk-weighted assets.

Total risk-based – Total capital (pursuant to risk-based capital guidelines) as a percentage of total risk-weighted assets.

Classified asset - Classified assets as a percentage of Tier 1 capital plus allowance for credit losses.

Tier I common equity to risk weighted assets - Tier 1 capital (pursuant to risk-based capital guidelines) less the amount of any preferred stock or subordinated indebtedness that is considered as a component of Tier 1 capital as a percentage of total risk-weighted assets.

9. Book value per common share computed by dividing total common stockholders' equity by common shares outstanding. Tangible book value per common share computed by dividing total common stockholders' equity, less goodwill, core deposit and other intangibles by common shares outstanding.

10. Amounts are included in the statement of operations in "Gains on mortgage loans sold, net", net of commissions paid on such amounts.

11. At fair value, based on information obtained from Pinnacle's third party broker/dealer for non-FDIC insured financial products and services.

12. Core deposits include all transaction deposit accounts, money market and savings accounts and all certificates of deposit issued in a denomination of less than $250,000. The ratio noted above represents total core deposits divided by total funding, which includes total deposits, FHLB advances, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, subordinated indebtedness and all other interest-bearing liabilities.

13. Associate retention rate is computed by dividing the number of associates employed at quarter end less the number of associates that have resigned in the last 12 months by the number of associates employed at quarter end. Associate retention rate does not include associates at acquired institutions displaced by merger.

14. Adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income excludes the impact of other real estate expenses and income, investment gains and losses on sales of securities, FHLB restructuring charges and hedge termination charges.

15. Represents investment gains (losses) on sales and impairments, net occurring as a result of gains or losses incurred as the result of a change in management's intention to sell a bond prior to the recovery of its amortized cost basis.

16. The dividend payout ratio is calculated as the sum of the annualized dividend rate for dividends paid on common shares divided by the trailing 12-months fully diluted earnings per common share as of the dividend declaration date.

17. Earnings from equity method investment includes the impact of the issuance of subordinated debt as well as the funding costs of the overall franchise. Income tax expense is calculated using statutory tax rates.

18. Tax effect calculated using the blended statutory rate of 26.14 percent.

19. Calculated using the same guidelines as are used in the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council's Uniform Bank Performance Report.

20. Effective January 1, 2020 Pinnacle Financial adopted the current expected credit loss accounting standard which requires the recognition of all losses expected to be recorded over a loan's life.
