WALLA WALLA, Wash., July 20, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Banner Corporation (NASDAQ GSM: BANR) (“Banner”), the parent company of Banner Bank, today reported net income of $48.0 million, or $1.39 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2022, a 9% increase compared to $44.0 million, or $1.27 per diluted share, for the preceding quarter and a 12% decrease compared to $54.4 million, or $1.56 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021. Banner’s second quarter 2022 results include $4.5 million of provision for credit losses, compared to $7.0 million in recapture of provision for credit losses in the preceding quarter and $10.3 million in recapture of provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 2021. In addition, during the second quarter of 2022 Banner recognized a $7.8 million gain related to the recently completed branch sale. In the first six months of 2022, net income was $91.9 million, or $2.66 per diluted share, compared to net income of $101.2 million, or $2.88 per diluted share for the same period a year earlier. Banner’s first six months of 2022 results include $2.4 million in recapture of provision for credit losses, compared to $19.5 million in recapture of provision for credit losses in the first six months of 2021.
Banner announced that its Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.44 per share. The dividend will be payable August 12, 2022, to common shareholders of record on August 2, 2022.
“Banner’s second quarter operating results reflect the continued successful execution of our super community bank strategy, and the ongoing implementation of Banner Forward,” said Mark Grescovich, President and CEO. “Our performance for the second quarter of 2022 benefited from solid loan growth, higher yields on interest-earning assets that led to net interest margin expansion, and the closing of the branch sale. Our continued focus on cultivating new client relationships contributed to our core deposits increasing 5% and loans, excluding PPP loans, increasing 7%, compared to June 30, 2021. We believe Banner remains well positioned for rising interest rates with an asset sensitive position which should further expand our net interest margin, and ample on-balance sheet liquidity to support loan demand and mitigate rising deposit costs. Our approach of consistently delivering outstanding service and value to our clients, communities, colleagues, company and shareholders while meeting our performance objectives continues to guide our success.”
“During the third quarter of 2021 we began implementing Banner Forward, a bank-wide initiative to enhance revenue growth and reduce operating expense,” said Grescovich. “Banner Forward is focused on accelerating growth in commercial banking, deepening relationships with retail clients, and advancing technology strategies to enhance our digital service channels, while streamlining underwriting and back office processes. The remaining efficiency-related initiatives associated with Banner Forward are anticipated to be implemented sequentially over the third quarter with implementation of the revenue initiatives ramping up in the second half of the year and into 2023. We expect full implementation by next year. During the second quarter of 2022, we incurred expenses of $1.6 million related to Banner Forward.”
At June 30, 2022, Banner Corporation had $16.39 billion in assets, $9.33 billion in net loans and $14.21 billion in deposits. Banner operates 137 full service branch offices, including branches located in eight of the top 20 largest western Metropolitan Statistical Areas by population.

Significant Recent Initiatives and Events
On June 24, 2022, Banner Bank completed the sale of four branches located in Hayden, Idaho, and in Chewelah, Colville, and Kettle Falls, Washington, generating a gain of $7.8 million.
The branch sale included deposit accounts with an approximate balance of $178.2 million. Banner Bank received a 5.0% premium in relation to the core deposits. The sale also included all related branch premises and equipment.
The sale of these branches further improves the Bank’s service footprint, while contributing to our capital, reducing excess liquidity, and improving our operating efficiency, including supporting the Banner Forward initiative by improving management’s focus on key operations and markets. Banner’s goal is that the combined impact of these branch sales and Banner Forward initiatives will be positive to future annual operating earnings.
Income Statement Review
Net interest income was $129.0 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $118.7 million in the preceding quarter and $127.6 million in the second quarter a year ago. “Rising interest rates during the quarter produced higher yields on loans and investment securities which improved our net interest margin. This impact was partially offset by the decline in the recognition of deferred loan fee income due to reduced loan repayments from Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan forgiveness,” said Grescovich.
Banner’s net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis was 3.44% for the second quarter of 2022, a 26 basis-point increase compared to 3.18% in the preceding quarter and an eight basis-point decrease compared to 3.52% in the second quarter a year ago. Acquisition accounting adjustments added two basis points to the net interest margin in the current quarter, and three basis points in both the preceding quarter and the second quarter a year ago. The total purchase discount for acquired loans was $7.7 million at June 30, 2022, compared to $8.5 million at March 31, 2022, and $12.5 million at June 30, 2021.
Average yields on interest-earning assets increased 25 basis points to 3.54% for the second quarter of 2022 compared to 3.29% for the preceding quarter and decreased 14 basis points compared to 3.68% in the second quarter a year ago. In March 2022, in response to inflation, the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) of the Federal Reserve System commenced increasing the target range for the federal funds rate by implementing a 25 basis point increase. During the second quarter of 2022, the FOMC increased the target range for the federal funds rate by an additional 125 basis points to a range of 1.50% to 1.75%. The increase in average yields on interest-earnings assets during the current quarter reflects the lagging benefit of variable rate interest-earnings assets beginning to reprice higher. The year over year decreases in average yield on interest-earning assets primarily reflects decreases in the average yield on total loans due to a decline in the recognition of deferred loan fee income due to loan repayments from SBA PPP loan forgiveness and increases in the average balance of interest-bearing deposits, as excess liquidity was invested in low yielding short term investments. Average loan yields increased four basis points to 4.54% compared to 4.50% in the preceding quarter and decreased 16 basis points compared to 4.70% in the second quarter a year ago. The increase in average loan yields during the current quarter compared to the preceding quarter was primarily the result of rising interest rates, partially offset by a decline in the recognition of deferred loan fee income due to loan repayments from SBA PPP loan forgiveness during the quarter. Loan discount accretion added four basis points to average loan yields in the current quarter and added five basis points in both the preceding quarter and in the second quarter a year ago. Deposit costs were 0.06% in both the second quarter of 2022 and the preceding quarter, which was a three basis-point decrease compared to the second quarter a year ago. The year-over-year decrease in quarterly deposit costs was primarily the result of an increase in the average balance of core deposits. The total cost of funding liabilities was 0.11% during the second quarter of 2022, a one basis-point decrease compared to the preceding quarter and a six basis-point decrease compared to 0.17% in the second quarter a year ago.
Banner recorded a $4.5 million provision for credit losses in the current quarter (comprised of a $3.1 million provision for credit losses – loans, a $1.4 million provision for credit losses – unfunded loan commitments and a $4,000 provision for credit losses – held-to-maturity debt securities). This compares to a $7.0 million recapture of provision for credit losses in the prior quarter (comprised of a $7.4 million recapture of provision for credit losses – loans, a $428,000 provision for credit losses – unfunded loan commitments and a $13,000 recapture of provision for credit losses – held-to-maturity debt securities) and a $10.3 million recapture of provision for credit losses in the second quarter a year ago (comprised of an $8.1 million recapture of provision for credit losses – loans, a $2.2 million recapture of provision for credit losses – unfunded loan commitments and a $12,000 provision for credit losses – held-to-maturity debt securities). The provision for credit losses for the current quarter primarily reflects loan growth and, to a lesser extent, a deterioration in forecasted economic conditions. The recapture of provision for credit losses for the preceding quarters primarily reflects improvement in the level of adversely classified loans, as well as in the forecasted economic indicators utilized to estimate credit losses during those periods.
Total non-interest income was $27.2 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $19.4 million in the preceding quarter and $22.3 million in the second quarter a year ago. The increase in non-interest income during the current quarter is primarily due to the previously mentioned $7.8 million gain recognized on the branch sale completed during the quarter. Deposit fees and other service charges were $11.0 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $11.2 million in the preceding quarter and $9.8 million in the second quarter a year ago. The increase in deposit fees and other service charges from the second quarter a year ago is primarily a result of increased deposit transaction account activity. Mortgage banking revenues, including gains on one- to four-family and multifamily loan sales and loan servicing fees, decreased to $4.0 million in the second quarter, compared to $4.4 million in the preceding quarter and $7.3 million in the second quarter a year ago. The decrease from the preceding quarter and from the second quarter of 2021 primarily reflects a reduction in the volume of one- to four-family loans sold, as well as a decrease in the gain on sale margin on one- to four-family held-for-sale loans. The reduction in volumes reflects a reduction in refinancing activity as interest rates increased during the current quarter. Home purchase activity accounted for 82% of one- to four-family mortgage loan originations in the second quarter of 2022, compared to 64% in the preceding quarter and was 66% in the second quarter of 2021. Mortgage banking revenue for the current quarter included a $458,000 lower of cost or market downward adjustment recorded on multifamily held for sale loans due to increases in market interest rates, compared to a $603,000 lower of cost or market downward adjustment recorded on multifamily held for sale loans in the first quarter of 2022. The prior quarter market downward adjustment was partially offset by $340,000 of gain recognized on the sale of multifamily loans. There were no sales of multifamily loans during the current quarter. Miscellaneous non-interest income increased to $2.1 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $1.7 million in the preceding quarter and decreased compared to $3.9 million in the second quarter a year ago. The decrease in miscellaneous non-interest income from the prior year quarter is primarily a result of higher gains recognized on the disposition of closed branch locations during the second quarter a year ago. Total non-interest income was $46.6 million in the first six months of each of 2022 and 2021.
Banner’s second quarter 2022 results included a $69,000 net gain for fair value adjustments as a result of changes in the valuation of financial instruments carried at fair value, principally comprised of certain investment securities held for trading and limited partnership investments, and a $32,000 net gain on the sale of securities. In the preceding quarter, results included a $49,000 net gain for fair value adjustments and a $435,000 net gain on the sale of securities. In the second quarter a year ago, results included a $58,000 net gain for fair value adjustments and a $77,000 net gain on the sale of securities.
Total revenue increased 13% to $156.2 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $138.1 million in the preceding quarter, and increased 4% compared to $149.9 million in the second quarter of 2021. Adjusted revenue* (the total of net interest income and total non-interest income excluding the net gain or loss on the sale of securities, the net change in valuation of financial instruments, and the gain on sale of branches) was $148.3 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $137.6 million in the preceding quarter and $149.8 million in the second quarter a year ago. In the first six months of the year, adjusted revenue* was $285.9 million, compared to $291.1 million in the first six months of 2021.
Total non-interest expense was $92.1 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $91.2 million in the preceding quarter and $92.6 million in the second quarter of 2021. The increase in non-interest expense for the current quarter compared to the prior quarter reflects a $1.3 million increase in salary and employee benefits expenses, primarily due to normal salary and wage adjustments, a $786,000 increase in payment and card processing services expenses, a $698,000 increase in professional services expenses and a $361,000 increase in advertising and marketing expenses, partially offset by a $1.0 million increase in capitalized loan origination costs, primarily due to increased loan production, a $793,000 decrease in loss on extinguishment of debt and a $654,000 decrease in information / computer data services expense. Banner recorded a $793,000 loss on extinguishment of debt in the prior quarter as a result of the redemption of $50.5 million of junior subordinated debentures. The year-over-year quarterly decrease in non-interest expense primarily reflects decreases in salary and employee benefits expense, primarily due to a reduction in staffing, and in professional and legal expenses, primarily due to a reduction in consultant expense, partially offset by a decrease in capitalized loan origination costs. Year-to-date, total non-interest expense was $183.2 million, compared to $186.2 million in the same period a year earlier. Banner’s efficiency ratio was 58.94% for the second quarter, compared to 66.04% in the preceding quarter and 61.79% in same quarter a year ago. Banner’s adjusted efficiency ratio* was 59.46% for the second quarter, compared to 62.09% in the preceding quarter and 58.50% in the year ago quarter.
For the second quarter of 2022, Banner had $11.6 million in state and federal income tax expense for an effective tax rate of 19.5%, reflecting the benefits from tax exempt income. Banner’s statutory income tax rate is 23.6%, representing a blend of the statutory federal income tax rate of 21.0% and apportioned effects of the state income tax rates.

The increase in one- to four-family loans from the preceding quarter was primarily the result of a jumbo mortgage special offered during the second quarter of 2022. Multifamily real estate loans decreased 4% to $575.2 million at June 30, 2022, compared to $598.6 million at March 31, 2022, and increased 23% compared to $469.0 million a year ago.

The year-over-year increase in total deposits was due primarily to an increase in general client liquidity. Non-interest-bearing account balances decreased to $6.39 billion at June 30, 2022, compared to $6.49 billion at March 31, 2022, and increased 5% compared to $6.09 billion a year ago.

The decrease in total common shareholders’ equity during the current quarter was primarily due to a $101.8 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income related to an increase in the unrealized loss on available for sale securities reflecting the increase in market interest rates during the current quarter. In addition, Banner repurchased 200,000 shares of its common stock in the second quarter of 2022 at an average cost of $54.80 per share.

| In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management has presented these non-GAAP financial measures in this earnings release because it believes that they provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in Banner’s core operations reflected in the current quarter’s results and facilitate the comparison of our performance with the performance of our peers. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for any analysis based on GAAP. Where applicable, comparable earnings information using GAAP financial measures is also presented. Because not all companies use the same calculations, our presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures as calculated by other companies. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures, see the tables below: | |||||||||||||||||||
