CEO Commentary

Rodger Levenson, Chairman, President and CEO, said, "We were pleased with our 2Q operating results which continued to reflect the strength and diversity of our business model. This included solid loan and deposit growth, a NIM of 4.11%, and strong performance across our major fee businesses.

"Our balance sheet remains strong with stable credit metrics, an ACL coverage ratio of 1.28%, significant liquidity capacity, and capital levels above well-capitalized, even when including the effective AOCI(3) from the total investment portfolio.

"WSFS continues to serve our Customers and Communities. On June 14th, we held our first-ever 'We Stand for Service Day', during which approximately 1,200 of our Associates provided nearly 5,000 hours of service to more than 80 nonprofit and community organizations across the Greater Philadelphia, Southern New Jersey and Delaware region.

"In addition, we were honored to be named a 2023 honoree of The Civic 50 Greater Philadelphia by the Philadelphia Foundation, in partnership with Points of Light and other local partners, for the second year in a row. This honor recognizes WSFS as one of the 50 most community-minded companies in Greater Philadelphia."

(3) As used in this press release, effective AOCI is a non-GAAP financial measure. For a reconciliation of this and other non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP measures, see "Non-GAAP Reconciliation" at the end of the press release.

Highlights for 2Q 2023:

  • Core EPS(4) was $1.16 compared to $1.02 for 2Q 2022.
  • Core ROA(4) was 1.41% compared to 1.27% for 2Q 2022.
  • Net loan growth of 2% (6% annualized) from 1Q 2023 driven by growth across the commercial portfolio and our consumer partnership with Spring EQ.
  • Customer deposits increased by $380.1 million, or 2% (10% annualized) for the quarter, driven by transactional Trust and Wealth deposits, and reflecting our highly diverse and insured/protected deposit portfolio. Noninterest deposits represent 34% of total customer deposits.
  • Net interest margin of 4.11% compared to 4.25% for 1Q 2023, reflects increasing deposit betas, partially offset by higher loan yields.
  • Core fee revenue (noninterest income)(4) was $67.4 million, an increase of $3.7 million, or 6%, compared to 1Q 2023, resulting in a 27.0% core fee revenue ratio(4).
  • Total net credit costs were $16.4 million, primarily due to provision driven by overall net loan growth, economic forecast changes and losses related to two C&I relationships that resolved during the quarter. The ACL coverage ratio was 1.28%, flat from 1Q 2023.
  • WSFS Bank capital ratios remain well above well-capitalized levels, with total risk-based capital of 14.84% and CET1 of 13.66%.
  • WSFS repurchased 357,278 shares of common stock at an average price of $38.32 per share, totaling an aggregate of $13.7 million. The Board of Directors also approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per share.

(4) As used in this press release, core EPS, core ROA, core fee revenue (noninterest income), and core fee revenue ratio are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude certain pre-tax adjustments and the tax impact of such adjustments.

At June 30, 2023, WSFS’ net loan and lease portfolio increased $194.5 million, or 6% (annualized), when compared with March 31, 2023 due to increases of $90.1 million in C&I, $79.7 million in Commercial Real Estate mortgage, primarily due to construction loans converting to permanent mortgages, $36.8 million in our consumer portfolio, primarily from Spring EQ (home equity loans), and $13.5 million in NewLane (commercial small business leases).

In line with our 2022-2024 Strategic Plan, the C&I portfolio (including owner-occupied real estate) continued to be our largest portfolio at 37% of net loans and leases. Additionally, our total commercial loan and lease portfolio continues to represent a majority of our lending portfolio at 78% of net loans and leases.

Net loans and leases at June 30, 2023 increased $809.6 million, or 7%, when compared with June 30, 2022. The increase was driven by increases of $382.6 million in our consumer portfolio, primarily from Spring EQ, $231.1 million in commercial mortgage, $89.0 million in C&I, and $77.3 million in NewLane.

Total customer deposits increased $380.1 million, or 2% (10% annualized), when compared with March 31, 2023, primarily driven by a $267.2 million increase from transactional trust deposits, a $190.5 million increase in Wealth deposits mainly attributable to trust referrals, partially offset by a $53.8 million decrease in municipal deposits.

Customer deposits decreased by $1.0 billion from June 30, 2022 primarily driven by customer utilization of excess liquidity and $226.9 million lower transactional trust deposits.

More than half of our customer deposits, or 55%, are from our Commercial, Small Business and Wealth Management customer relationships. The loan to deposit ratio(5) was 75% at June 30, 2023, reflecting continued capacity to fund future loan growth. Our total protected deposits(6) were 72% of total customer deposits.

Core deposits were a strong 90% of total customer deposits, and no- and low-cost checking accounts represented a robust 52% of total customer deposits, at June 30, 2023, with a weighted average cost of 31bps for the quarter. These core deposits predominantly represent longer-term, less price-sensitive customer relationships.

Net interest income decreased $0.7 million, or less than 1%, compared to 1Q 2023, primarily due to increasing deposit betas, partially offset by higher loan yields. Net interest income increased $28.2 million, or 18%, compared to 2Q 2022, primarily due to the benefits of our asset-sensitive balance sheet, partially offset by funding mix.

Net interest margin decreased 14bps from 1Q 2023 and increased 71bps from 2Q 2022, primarily due to the reasons noted above.

Total loan yields were 6.79%, an increase of 26 bps compared to 1Q 2023. Total customer deposit costs were 1.16%, an increase of 36 bps compared to 1Q 2023 and customer interest-bearing deposit costs were 1.75%, an increase of 51 bps compared to 1Q 2023.

Asset quality metrics remained relatively stable during the quarter and continued to reflect the strength of the originated and acquired portfolios. Total problem assets(7) increased $48.6 million compared to 1Q 2023. Total problem assets to total Tier 1 capital plus ACL increased 149 bps compared to 1Q 2023.

Delinquencies to gross loans decreased to 0.59% at June 30, 2023 compared to 0.83% at March 31, 2023, primarily driven by resolution of a few larger commercial maturities.

The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets were flat from March 31, 2023 at 0.16% and remained at historically low levels. Net charge-offs for 2Q 2023 were $13.1 million, or 0.43% (annualized) of average gross loans. The increase over prior quarter was primarily due to losses from two C&I relationships that experienced significant credit events during the quarter and the continued portfolio maturation in our NewLane and Upstart portfolios.

Total net credit costs were $16.4 million in the quarter compared to $29.0 million in 1Q 2023, as the prior quarter's credit costs were higher due to the impacts of economic uncertainty and forecast on provisioning.

The ACL was $171.9 million as of June 30, 2023, an increase of $2.7 million from March 31, 2023, primarily due to loan growth. The ACL coverage ratio was 1.28%, flat from March 31, 2023.

(7) Total problem assets includes all criticized, classified, and nonperforming loans as well as other real estate owned (OREO).

Core Fee Revenue

Core fee revenue (noninterest income) of $67.4 million increased $3.7 million, or 6% (not annualized), compared to 1Q 2023, primarily driven by increases of $1.8 million in Cash Connect®, $1.7 million in Wealth Management fees and $1.2 million in core banking fees across consumer partnerships, deposit service charges and SBA gain on sale. The increase was partially offset by a decrease of $1.2 million in capital markets fees, which can be uneven from period to period depending on loan origination volume and mix and interest rate environment.

Core fee revenue increased $1.4 million, or 2%, compared to 2Q 2022. When excluding the impact from the BMT Insurance Advisors (BMTIA) business, which was sold at the end of 2Q 2022, core fee revenue increased $2.6 million, or 4.0%, compared to 2Q 2022. The increase was primarily driven by an $8.0 million increase in Cash Connect® fees, partially offset by a decrease of $3.8 million in core banking fees from lower returns on derivative collateral as a result of funding optimization and consumer partnerships.

For 2Q 2023, our core fee revenue ratio was 27.0% compared to 25.8% in 1Q 2023 and 30.0% in 2Q 2022. Fees continue to be resilient and well-diversified among various sources, including Wealth Management, Cash Connect®, traditional and other banking fees, capital markets and mortgage banking.

Core Noninterest Expense(8)

Core noninterest expense of $138.5 million increased $5.4 million, or 4% (not annualized), compared to 1Q 2023. When excluding a $2.3 million net benefit from nonrecurring items from 1Q 2023, core noninterest expense increased $3.1 million, or 2% (not annualized). The increase is primarily due to $1.7 million from professional fees, $1.0 million from equipment expenses, and $0.9 million from Cash Connect® funding costs driven by the rising interest rate environment.

Core noninterest expense increased $14.8 million, or 12%, compared to 2Q 2022. The increase is primarily due to $6.2 million in higher variable operating costs, $4.2 million from salaries and benefits, and $1.4 million from FDIC insurance assessment. Our core efficiency ratio was 55.5% in 2Q 2023, compared to 53.9% in 1Q 2023 and 56.2% in 2Q 2022.

Income Taxes

We recorded a $23.0 million income tax provision in 2Q 2023, compared to a $20.9 million income tax provision in 1Q 2023 and $22.4 million in 2Q 2022.

The effective tax rate was 25.1% in 2Q 2023, compared to 25.0% in 1Q 2023 and 26.9% in 2Q 2022. The decrease in effective tax rate for 2Q 2023 compared to 2Q 2022 was primarily due to discrete tax expense of $1.4 million related to nondeductible goodwill written off during the sale of the BMTIA business in 2Q 2022. Excluding this item, our 2Q 2022 effective tax rate was 25.2%.

(8) As used in this press release, core noninterest expense is a non-GAAP financial measure. This non-GAAP financial measure excludes corporate development and restructuring expense. For a reconciliation of this and other non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP measures, see "Non-GAAP Reconciliation" at the end of the press release.

Capital Management

Capital levels remain strong and are all substantially in excess of the “well-capitalized” regulatory benchmarks at June 30, 2023 with WSFS Bank’s Tier 1 leverage ratio of 10.83%, Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio and Tier 1 capital ratio of 13.66%, and Total Risk-based capital ratio of 14.84%.

WSFS’ total stockholders’ equity increased $8.3 million, or less than 1% (not annualized), during 2Q 2023. The increase was primarily due to quarterly earnings of $68.7 million, partially offset by a decline in accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) of $37.6 million from market-value declines on investment securities and capital returns of $22.9 million to stockholders comprising $13.7 million from share repurchases and $9.2 million from quarterly dividends.

WSFS’ tangible common equity(9) increased $12.3 million, or 1% (not annualized), compared to March 31, 2023. WSFS’ common equity to assets ratio was 11.35% at June 30, 2023, and our tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio(9) increased by 4bps during the quarter to 6.76%, primarily due to the reasons described above.

At June 30, 2023, book value per share was $37.89, an increase of $0.32, or 1% (not annualized), from March 31, 2023, and tangible common book value per share(9) was $21.45, an increase of $0.30, or 1% (not annualized), from March 31, 2023.

During 2Q 2023, WSFS repurchased 357,278 shares of common stock for an aggregate of $13.7 million. As of June 30, 2023, WSFS has 5,969,493 shares, or approximately 10% of outstanding shares, remaining to repurchase under its current authorizations.

The Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per share of common stock. This dividend will be paid on August 18, 2023 to stockholders of record as of August 4, 2023.

(9) As used in this press release, tangible common equity, tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio and tangible common book value per share are non-GAAP financial measures. These non-GAAP financial measures exclude goodwill and intangible assets and the related tax-effected amortization. For a reconciliation of these and other non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP measures, see "Non-GAAP Reconciliation" at the end of the press release.

Wealth Management reported pre-tax income of $30.5 million in 2Q 2023 compared to $23.4 million in 1Q 2023, and $20.2 million in 2Q 2022. The quarter-over-quarter increase was primarily attributable to higher interest income, a seasonal increase in fees associated with tax preparation and record high revenue in Institutional Services. The year-over-year increase was mainly from the same factors.

Fee revenue was $32.9 million in 2Q 2023, compared to $30.9 million in 1Q 2023, an increase of $2.0 million, or 6%, primarily attributable to tax preparation and continued growth in Institutional Services. Fee revenue was roughly flat compared to 2Q 2022 as the sale of the BMTIA business in 2Q 2022 offset growth in Institutional Services fee revenue.

Total noninterest expense was $24.3 million in 2Q 2023, compared to $24.2 million in 1Q 2023 and $22.8 million in 2Q 2022. These increases were primarily driven by higher professional fees.

Net AUM of $8.1 billion at the end of 2Q 2023 increased $0.1 billion compared to 1Q 2023, and increased $0.5 billion compared to 2Q 2022. Both increases were primarily impacted by positive returns in both equity and fixed income markets.

Cash Connect® pre-tax income increased $0.3 million compared to 1Q 2023, driven by higher retail safe and managed services volume. Pre-tax income decreased $1.4 million compared to 2Q 2022, driven by increased operating costs associated with the rising interest rate environment and costs associated with the growth in the retail safe business. ROA of 0.72% in 2Q 2023 increased 27bps from 1Q 2023 and decreased 54bps from 2Q 2022, primarily driven by the reasons described above.

Net revenue of $17.0 million in 2Q 2023 was up $1.5 million from 1Q 2023 and up $5.3 million from 2Q 2022 driven by higher retail safe and managed services volume, the rising interest rate environment, and funding source optimization (offset by higher external funding expense).

Noninterest expense was $16.0 million in 2Q 2023, an increase of $1.2 million compared to 1Q 2023, and $6.7 million higher compared to 2Q 2022, driven by higher external funding expense and armored carrier expense year-over-year.

At the end of 2Q 2023, Cash Connect® had approximately $1.6 billion in cash managed with 21% year-over-year growth in retail safe units. Cash Connect® continues to focus on investment in its growing product lines and expand these services across the country, alongside a wide network and strong pipeline of channel partners, retailers, and top-tier financial institutions, in a commitment to improve margin and ROA.

The Company uses non-GAAP (United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) financial information in its analysis of the Company’s performance. The Company’s management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide a greater understanding of ongoing operations, enhance comparability of results of operations with prior periods and show the effects of significant gains and charges in the periods presented. The Company’s management believes that investors may use these non-GAAP financial measures to analyze the Company’s financial performance without the impact of unusual items or events that may obscure trends in the Company’s underlying performance. This non-GAAP data should be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP, and is not a substitute for, or superior to, GAAP results. For a reconciliation of these and other non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP measures, see "Non-GAAP Reconciliation" at the end of the press release.
