MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc. Reports Financial Results for the Third Quarter of 2024

IOWA CITY, Iowa, Oct. 24, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: MOFG) (“we”, “our”, or the “Company”) today reported results for the third quarter of 2024.

Third Quarter 2024 Summary1

CEO Commentary

Charles (Chip) Reeves, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “Our successful common equity capital raise and balance sheet repositioning are significant, transformational steps towards our goal of creating a high performing company. We were pleased with the market receptivity of the oversubscribed common equity offering and the balance sheet repositioning financial results exceeded our communicated expectations. We are appreciative of our existing and new shareholders who supported this transformation and our team who executed the strategy so well.”

Mr. Reeves continued, “We also kept our eye on the ball during the quarter, delivering positive results in a number of strategic initiatives. Our deposit franchise continues to show its strength as deposit costs rose minimally and our treasury management investments led to 4% linked quarter non-interest bearing deposit growth. Our commercial banking teams drove 4% annualized loan growth, improved asset quality, and good progress in our SBA lending and gain on sale initiatives. In addition, we continued to invest in our franchise, with both talent and technology, while maintaining expense discipline.”

Total revenue for the third quarter of 2024 decreased $150.8 million from the second quarter of 2024 and decreased $137.3 million compared to the third quarter of 2023, due to lower noninterest income, partially offset by higher net interest income. Excluding the pre-tax securities loss of $140.4 million stemming from the balance sheet repositioning, total revenue for the third quarter was $47.5 million, a decline of $10.4 million from the second quarter of 2024 and an increase of $3.1 million from the third quarter of 2023.

Net interest income of $37.5 million for the third quarter of 2024 increased $1.2 million from the second quarter of 2024, due to higher earning asset yields and lower funding volumes, partially offset by lower earning asset volumes and higher funding costs. When compared to the third quarter of 2023, net interest income increased $2.9 million, due to higher earning asset volumes and yields, partially offset by higher funding costs and volumes. We expect net interest income to be higher going forward as a result of the balance sheet repositioning.

The Company’s tax equivalent net interest margin was 2.51%3 in the third quarter of 2024, compared to 2.41%3 in the second quarter of 2024, as higher earning asset yields more than offset increased funding costs. Total earning assets yield during the third quarter of 2024 increased 10 bps from the second quarter of 2024 due primarily to an increase in loan yields of 17 bps. Funding costs during the third quarter of 2024 increased 2 bps to 2.87%, due primarily to the 4 bps increase in interest bearing deposit costs to 2.58%, which was partially offset by a reduction in short-term borrowing costs and long-term debt of 10 bps and 4 bps, to 4.76% and 6.91%, respectively from the second quarter of 2024.

The Company’s tax equivalent net interest margin was 2.51%3 in the third quarter of 2024, compared to 2.35%3 in the third quarter of 2023, driven by higher earning asset volumes and yields, partially offset by higher funding costs and volumes. Total earning assets yield increased 58 bps from the third quarter of 2023, primarily from a 67 bps increase in loan yields. Funding costs increased 54 bps to 2.87%, due to interest bearing deposit costs of 2.58%, short-term borrowing costs of 4.76%, and long-term debt costs of 6.91%, which increased 53 bps, 47 bps and 13 bps, respectively from the third quarter of 2023.

Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2024 decreased $151.9 million from the linked quarter, due primarily to the securities impairment of $140.4 million related to the Company’s balance sheet repositioning and a decrease of $11.1 million in other revenue. The decrease in other revenue reflected the $11.1 million gain from the sale of our Florida banking operations in the second quarter of 2024 that did not recur in the third quarter of 2024. In addition, loan revenue decreased $765 thousand due to a $1.2 million unfavorable change in the value of our mortgage servicing rights, partially offset by an increase of $0.4 million in SBA gain on sale revenue.

Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2024 decreased $140.2 million from the third quarter of 2023, due primarily to the balance sheet repositioning-related securities impairment previously noted. Also contributing to the decline in noninterest income was a decrease in loan revenue stemming from the unfavorable year-over-year change in the fair value of our mortgage servicing rights, which was partially offset by an increase of $0.5 million in SBA gain on sale. Partially offsetting these decreases in noninterest income was an increase of $0.4 million in investment services and trust activities revenue, driven by growth in assets under administration and transaction fees, and an increase of $0.3 million in bank-owned life insurance due primarily to $0.2 million of death benefits recognized in the third quarter of 2024.

Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2024 compared to the linked quarter was stable at $35.8 million, with increases of $1.3 million and $0.2 million in other expense and foreclosed assets, net, respectively. The increase in other expense was primarily driven by a $1.2 million fraud loss related to a single instance recorded in the third quarter of 2024, while the increase in foreclosed assets, net, expense was attributable to a $0.3 million write-down and higher operating expenses of one other real estate owned relationship, partially offset by a $0.4 million gain on sale of a separate other real estate owned relationship. Partially offsetting these increases in noninterest expense were declines in all other noninterest expense categories, with the largest decrease in compensation and employee benefits, which stemmed from the sale of our Florida banking operations in the second quarter of 2024. Further decreases in noninterest expense categories were also driven by a $0.7 million decline in merger-related expenses.

Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2024 increased $4.3 million from the third quarter of 2023 primarily due to increases in all noninterest expense categories, except marketing and communications. The largest contributors to the increase in noninterest expense were increases of $1.5 million, $1.4 million, and $0.6 million in other, compensation and employee benefits, and legal and professional expense, respectively. The increase in other expense was primarily driven by a $1.2 million fraud loss recorded in the third quarter of 2024. The increase in compensation and employee benefits expense was driven by annual compensation adjustments and increased incentive and commission expense. The increase in legal and professional expense stemmed from increased costs for legal fees, consulting, personnel procurement, merger-related expenses, and accounting and tax fees. Partially offsetting these increases was a decline of $0.2 million in marketing expense.

The Company’s effective tax rate was 26.5% in the third quarter of 2024, compared to 24.2% in the linked quarter. The increase in the effective tax rate reflected the impact of the investment security impairments recorded in the third quarter of 2024 related to the balance sheet repositioning. The effective income tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2024 and full year 2025 is expected to be 22-23%.

BALANCE SHEET REVIEW

Total assets were $6.55 billion at September 30, 2024, compared to $6.58 billion at June 30, 2024 and $6.47 billion at September 30, 2023. The decrease from June 30, 2024 was primarily driven by lower securities balances stemming from impairment recognized in the third quarter of 2024 related to the balance sheet repositioning, fair value adjustments recognized in connection with the re-classification of securities from held-to-maturity to available-for-sale, and scheduled calls, maturities, and paydowns, partially offset by higher cash and loan balances. Compared to September 30, 2023, the increase was primarily driven by assets acquired in the Denver Bankshares, Inc. (“DNVB”) transaction, as well as higher cash and loan balances, partially offset by the sale of assets associated with our Florida banking operations, and lower securities balances.

Loans held for investment, net of unearned income, increased $262.8 million, or 6.5%, to $4.33 billion from $4.07 billion at September 30, 2023. The increase from the third quarter of 2023 was driven primarily by the loans acquired in the DNVB transaction, organic loan growth, and higher line of credit usage. Partially offsetting these identified increases was a decline stemming from the sale of loans associated with our Florida banking operations.

The decrease from the second quarter of 2024 stemmed from impairment recognized in the third quarter of 2024 related to the balance sheet repositioning, fair value adjustments recognized in the third quarter of 2024 in connection with the re-classification of held-to-maturity securities to available-for-sale, and principal cash flows received from scheduled payments, calls, and maturities.

The decrease compared to the linked quarter was due to a decrease in overnight borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and scheduled payments on long-term debt, partially offset by an increase in long-term FHLB borrowings. The increase compared to September 30, 2023 was due to higher Bank Term Funding Program borrowings, partially offset by lower overnight borrowings from the Federal Home Loan Bank, securities sold under agreements to repurchase, and scheduled payments on long-term debt.

Total shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2024 increased $19.0 million from June 30, 2024, primarily driven by an increase in the balance of common stock and additional paid-in-capital stemming from the common stock capital raise executed in the third quarter of 2024, partially offset by a decline in retained earnings. Total shareholders’ equity at September 30, 2024 increased $56.8 million from September 30, 2023, primarily due to increases in common stock and additional paid-in-capital stemming from the common stock issuance previously described and decreases in accumulated other comprehensive loss and treasury stock, partially offset by a decline in retained earnings.

On October 23, 2024, the Board of Directors of the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.2425 per common share. The dividend is payable December 16, 2024, to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 2, 2024.

No common shares were repurchased by the Company during the period June 30, 2024 through September 30, 2024 or for the subsequent period through October 24, 2024. The current share repurchase program allows for the repurchase of up to $15.0 million of the Company’s common shares. As of September 30, 2024, $15.0 million remained available under this program.

Compared to the linked quarter, the nonperforming loans and nonperforming assets ratios each declined 8 bps, to 0.51% and 0.39%, respectively, due to the proactive resolution of several large troubled assets. Special mention/watch loan balances increased $31.0 million, or 21%, from the linked quarter, while classified loan balances decreased $14.5 million, or 10%, from the linked quarter. When compared to the same period of the prior year, the nonperforming loans and nonperforming asset ratios decreased 20 bps and 6 bps, respectively. The net charge-off ratio increased 11 bps from the linked quarter and increased 12 bps from the same period in the prior year.

As of September 30, 2024, the allowance for credit losses was $54.0 million and the allowance for credit losses ratio was 1.25%, compared with $53.9 million and 1.26%, respectively, at June 30, 2024. Credit loss expense of $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2024 reflected an additional reserve taken to support organic loan growth, offset by a reduction of $0.3 million in the reserve for unfunded loan commitments.
