Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. Reports First Quarter Profit Driven By Loan Growth and Improved Net Interest Margin

BALA CYNWYD, PA --(Marketwired - April 25, 2017) - Royal Bancshares of Pennsylvania, Inc. ("Company") ( NASDAQ : RBPAA ), parent company of Royal Bank America ("Royal Bank"), is pleased to report net income attributable to the Company of $1.8 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $2.2 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2016. Excluding expenses directly related to the merger with Bryn Mawr Bank Corporation of $243 thousand, net income attributable to the Company was $2.1 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, for the three months ended March 31, 2017.

Kevin Tylus, the Company's President and Chief Executive Officer, noted, "Loan growth positively contributed to our first quarter results. We also significantly reduced our other real estate owned assets by 40%. While we are in the midst of our merger planning activities with Bryn Mawr Bank Corporation, we remain equally focused on the daily operations of the bank and serving our customers."

The merger with Bryn Mawr Bank Corporation is subject to applicable regulatory approvals and approval by the Company's shareholders, as well as certain other closing conditions.

Highlights for the three months ended March 31, 2017 included:

Balance Sheet Trends:

  • At March 31, 2017, total assets were $836.7 million and grew $4.2 million, or 0.5%, from $832.5 million at December 31, 2016.
  • Total loans and loans held for sale were $619.0 million at March 31, 2017, an increase of $17.0 million, or 2.8%, from $602.0 million at December 31, 2016. Current quarter increases were recognized in multiple loan portfolio segments.
  • Total deposits were $644.4 million at March 31, 2017, an increase of $14.9 million, or 2.4%, from $629.5 million at December 31, 2016.

Asset Quality:

  • The ratio of non-performing loans to total loans was 1.08% at March 31, 2017 compared to 1.00% at December 31, 2016.
  • Non-performing loans of $6.0 million at December 31, 2016 increased $688 thousand, or 11.5%, to $6.7 million at March 31, 2017. During the first quarter of 2017, one commercial real estate loan with a carrying amount of $486 thousand became non-accrual because it was past its maturity date. Four loans comprise additions of $401 thousand in commercial and industrial non-accrual loans.
  • The ratio of non-performing assets to total assets was 1.05% at March 31, 2017 compared to 1.15% at December 31, 2016.
  • Non-performing assets of $8.8 million at March 31, 2017 decreased $717 thousand, or 7.5%, from $9.5 million at December 31, 2016. Other real estate owned ("OREO") declined $1.4 million, or 39.7%, during the first quarter of 2017 mostly due to sales of the properties.
  • During the first quarter of 2017, the Company recorded a provision to the allowance for loan and lease losses of $297 thousand compared to $212 thousand for the first quarter of 2016. The 2017 provision was primarily attributable to net loan growth, specific reserves and net charge-off activity.

Income Statement and Other Highlights:

  • The return on average assets for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was 0.88% compared to 1.11% for the three months ended March 31, 2016.
  • The return on average equity for the three months ended March 31, 2017 was 13.82% compared to 11.98% for the three months ended March 31, 2016.
  • At March 31, 2017, the Company's Tier 1 leverage and Total Risk Based Capital ratios were 8.529% and 13.341%, respectively, compared to 8.488% and 13.302%, respectively, at December 31, 2016. The Common Equity Tier 1 ratio was 8.125% at March 31, 2017 compared to 7.992% at December 31, 2016.
  • Net interest income increased $526 thousand, or 8.1%, from $6.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2016 to $7.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017. The growth in net interest income was impacted by the growth in average interest-earning assets and was partially offset by an increase in the average rate paid on average borrowings.
  • The net interest margin was 3.60% for the first quarter of 2017 compared to 3.51% for the comparable period in 2016. The increase in net interest margin was directly related to an increase of 15 basis points in the yield on average interest-earning assets due to a change in the composition of such assets.
  • Non-interest income for the first quarter of 2017 was $511 thousand and decreased $696 thousand from $1.2 million for the first quarter of 2016. The quarterly decrease in non-interest income was impacted by a $367 thousand decline in the net gains on the sale of investment securities and a $355 thousand decrease in income from Company owned life insurance. We did not sell investment securities in the 2017 quarter.
  • Non-interest expense was $5.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2017 compared to $5.2 million for the same period in 2016 and increased $155 thousand. Contributing to the increase in non-interest expense for the first quarter of 2017 was $243 thousand in merger expenses. During the first quarter of 2017, we recorded an $8 thousand provision for unfunded loan commitments compared to a $150 thousand credit in the first quarter of 2016. While the historical loss rates applied in the calculation of the reserve for unfunded loan commitments declined, the level of unfunded loan commitments increased quarter over quarter. Partially mitigating these increases was a $408 thousand improvement in net OREO expenses during the first quarter of 2017. Net gains on the sales of OREO, which are included in net OREO expenses, increased $405 thousand quarter over quarter.
