Washington Trust Reports Third Quarter 2022 Earnings

WESTERLY, R.I., Oct. 24, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Washington Trust Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq: WASH), parent company of The Washington Trust Company, today announced third quarter 2022 net income of $18.7 million, or $1.08 per diluted share, compared to net income of $20.0 million, or $1.14 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2022.

“Washington Trust reported solid third quarter results, a testament to our diversified business model,” stated Edward O. Handy III, Washington Trust Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We remain committed to our customers and expanding our presence within our geographic footprint.  During the quarter, we opened a new commercial lending office in New Haven, Connecticut, opened a new full-service branch in Cumberland, Rhode Island and recently announced our intention to open three new branches in Rhode Island in 2023.”

Selected financial highlights for the third quarter include:

  • Returns on average equity and average assets for the third quarter were 15.16% and 1.19%, respectively, compared to 16.11% and 1.37%, respectively, for the preceding quarter.
  • Net interest income totaled an all-time quarterly record of $42.0 million in the third quarter, up by $4.5 million, or 12%, from the preceding quarter, reflecting the impact of rising market interest rates.
  • Asset and credit quality metrics remain strong. In the third quarter, a provision for credit losses (or a charge) of $800 thousand was recognized, compared to a negative provision (or a benefit) of $3.0 million recognized in the preceding quarter.
  • Total loans amounted to an all-time high of $4.8 billion, up by $369 million, or 8%, from the end of the preceding quarter, reflecting strong loan growth in both the commercial and residential real estate loan portfolios.
  • In-market deposits (total deposits less wholesale brokered deposits) amounted to $4.6 billion at September 30, 2022, up by $79 million, or 2%, from the end of the preceding quarter and up by $324 million, or 8%, from the balance at September 30, 2021.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $42.0 million for the third quarter of 2022, up by $4.5 million, or 12%, from the second quarter of 2022.  The net interest margin was 2.82% for the third quarter, up by 11 basis points from the preceding quarter.  Linked quarter changes included:

  • Average interest-earning assets increased by $365 million, largely reflecting an increase of $305 million in average loans. The yield on interest-earning assets for the third quarter was 3.49%, up by 46 basis points from the preceding quarter, reflecting the impact of higher market interest rates.



  • Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $318 million. Average in-market deposits declined by $120 million, while average wholesale funding balances increased by $438 million to fund loan growth. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities for the third quarter of 2022 was 0.86%, up by 44 basis points from the preceding quarter, reflecting higher rates paid on wholesale funding sources and money market accounts.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income totaled $15.8 million for the third quarter of 2022, down modestly by $49 thousand, or 0.3%, from the second quarter of 2022.  Linked quarter changes included:

  • Wealth management revenues amounted to $9.5 million in the third quarter of 2022, down by $541 thousand, or 5%, on a linked quarter basis. This included a decrease of $339 thousand, or 4%, in asset-based revenues and a decrease of $202 thousand, or 48%, in transaction-based revenues. The linked quarter decline in transaction-based revenues was mainly due to lower tax servicing fee income in the third quarter, as this income is concentrated in the first half of the year.



    Wealth management assets under administration (“AUA”) amounted to $6.3 billion at September 30, 2022, down by $327 million, or 5%, from June 30, 2022.  The decrease reflected net investment depreciation of $240 million and net client asset outflows of $87 million in the third quarter of 2022.  The average balance of AUA for the third quarter of 2022 decrease by approximately $337 million, or 5%, from the average balance for the preceding quarter.



    Recently, four client-facing advisors in our registered investment adviser subsidiary resigned.  As a result, Washington Trust could experience an increased level of client asset outflows in upcoming months.



  • Mortgage banking revenues totaled $2.0 million for the third quarter of 2022, down modestly by $35 thousand, or 2%, from the second quarter of 2022, largely reflecting both a lower volume of loans sold and a decline in the sales yield on loans sold to the secondary market.



  • Loan related derivative income was $1.0 million in the third quarter of 2022, up by $372 thousand, or 56%, from the preceding quarter, reflecting an increase in commercial borrower interest rate derivative transactions.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense totaled $33.1 million for the third quarter of 2022, up by $2.0 million, or 6%, from the second quarter of 2022.  Linked quarter changes included:

  • Salaries and employee benefits expense, the largest component of noninterest expense, amounted to $21.6 million for the third quarter of 2022, up by $1.2 million, or 6%, from the preceding quarter, largely reflecting adjustments to performance-based compensation accruals.



  • The remaining increase in noninterest expense reflects modest increases across a variety of other noninterest expense categories.

Income Tax

Income tax expense totaled $5.3 million for the third quarter of 2022, down by $23 thousand from the preceding quarter.  The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2022 was 22.1%, compared to 21.1% in the preceding quarter.  Based on current federal and applicable state income statutes, the Corporation currently expects its full-year 2022 effective tax rate to be approximately 21.5%.

Investment Securities

The securities portfolio totaled $983 million at September 30, 2022, down by $38 million, or 4%, from June 30, 2022, reflecting a temporary decline in fair value of available for sale securities and routine pay-downs on mortgage-backed securities, partially offset by purchases of U.S. government agency and U.S. government-sponsored debt securities, including mortgage-backed securities.  Purchases of debt securities in the third quarter 2022 totaled $47 million, with a weighted average yield of 4.24%.  The securities portfolio represented 15% of total assets at September 30, 2022, compared to 17% of total assets at June 30, 2022.

Loans

Total loans amounted to $4.8 billion at September 30, 2022, up by $369 million, or 8%, from the end of the preceding quarter.  Linked quarter changes included:

  • Commercial loans increased by $186 million, or 8%, from June 30, 2022, reflecting originations and advances of approximately $286 million, partially offset by payoffs and pay-downs of approximately $100 million.



  • Residential real estate loans increased by $178 million, or 9%, from June 30, 2022. In the third quarter of 2022, residential real estate loans originated for portfolio amounted to $225 million, down by $39 million, or 15%, from the preceding quarter.



  • The consumer loan portfolio increased by $6 million, or 2%, from the balance at June 30, 2022, due to growth in home equity lines and loans.

Deposits and Borrowings

At September 30, 2022, in-market deposits, which exclude wholesale brokered deposits, amounted to $4.6 billion, up by $79 million, or 2%, from the end of the preceding quarter.  This included seasonal inflows of various institutional and governmental depositors based on their underlying business cycles.  Wholesale brokered deposits amounted to $443 million, down by $16 million, or 3%, from June 30, 2022.  Total deposits amounted to $5.1 billion at September 30, 2022, up by $63 million, or 1%, from the end of the preceding quarter.

FHLB advances totaled $700 million at September 30, 2022, up by $372 million, or 113%, from June 30, 2022, as higher levels of wholesale funding were utilized to fund balance sheet growth.

Asset Quality

Total nonaccrual loans amounted to $12.1 million, or 0.25% of total loans, at September 30, 2022, down from $12.4 million, or 0.28% of total loans, at June 30, 2022.  Total past due loans amounted to $7.5 million, or 0.16% of total loans, at September 30, 2022, down from $8.6 million, or 0.19% of total loans, at June 30, 2022.

The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) on loans amounted to $36.9 million, or 0.76% of total loans, at September 30, 2022, compared to $36.3 million, or 0.81% of total loans, at June 30, 2022.  The ACL on unfunded commitments, included in other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, amounted to $2.4 million at September 30, 2022, compared to $2.2 million at June 30, 2022.

There was a positive $800 thousand provision for credit losses (or a charge) recognized in the third quarter of 2022, compared to a negative $3.0 million provision for credit losses (or a benefit) recognized in the preceding quarter.  The provision for credit losses in the third quarter of 2022 reflected loan growth, our current estimate of forecasted economic conditions and strong asset and credit quality metrics.  In the third quarter of 2022, net charge-offs of $54 thousand were recognized, compared to net recoveries of $10 thousand in the preceding quarter.

Capital and Dividends

Total shareholders’ equity was $432.3 million at September 30, 2022, down by $44.4 million, or 9%, from June 30, 2022.  The decline was largely due to a decrease of $53.7 million in the accumulated other comprehensive income component of shareholders’ equity, reflecting a temporary decrease in the fair value of available for sale securities.  In addition, the change in shareholders’ equity also included $9.4 million in dividend declarations, partially offset by net income of $18.7 million.

In the third quarter of 2022, Washington Trust repurchased 18,754 shares, at an average price of $47.79 and a total cost of  $896 thousand, under its stock repurchase program.

Capital levels at September 30, 2022 exceeded the regulatory minimum levels to be considered well capitalized, with a total risk-based capital ratio of 12.65% at September 30, 2022, compared to 13.51% at June 30, 2022.  Book value per share was $25.17 at September 30, 2022, compared to $27.73 at June 30, 2022.

The Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of 54 cents per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.  The dividend was paid on October 7, 2022 to shareholders of record on October 3, 2022.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release contains statements that are “forward-looking statements.”  We may also make forward-looking statements in other documents we file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), in our annual reports to shareholders, in press releases and other written materials, and in oral statements made by our officers, directors or employees.  You can identify forward-looking statements by the use of the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “assume,” “outlook,” “will,” “should,” and other expressions that predict or indicate future events and trends and which do not relate to historical matters.  You should not rely on forward-looking statements, because they involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control.  These risks, uncertainties and other factors may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from the anticipated future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.

Some of the factors that might cause these differences include the following:

  • changes in political, business and economic conditions, including inflation;
  • interest rate changes or volatility, as well as changes in the balance and mix of loans and deposits;
  • changes in loan demand and collectability;
  • the possibility that future credit losses are higher than currently expected due to changes in economic assumptions or adverse economic developments;
  • ongoing volatility in national and international financial markets;
  • reductions in the market value or outflows of wealth management AUA;
  • decreases in the value of securities and other assets;
  • increases in defaults and charge-off rates;
  • changes in the size and nature of our competition;
  • changes in legislation or regulation and accounting principles, policies and guidelines;
  • operational risks including, but not limited to, changes in information technology, cybersecurity incidents, fraud, natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and future pandemics;
  • reputational risks; and
  • changes in the assumptions used in making such forward-looking statements.

In addition, the factors described under “Risk Factors” in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, as updated by our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other filings submitted to the SEC, may result in these differences. You should carefully review all of these factors and you should be aware that there may be other factors that could cause these differences. These forward-looking statements were based on information, plans and estimates at the date of this report, and we assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect changes in underlying assumptions or factors, new information, future events or other changes.

Supplemental Information – Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures.  Washington Trust’s management believes that the supplemental non-GAAP information, which consists of measurements and ratios based on tangible equity and tangible assets, is utilized by regulators and market analysts to evaluate a company’s financial condition and therefore, such information is useful to investors.  These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may be presented by other companies.  Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.

The following table presents average balance and interest rate information.  Tax-exempt income is converted to a fully taxable equivalent (“FTE”) basis using the statutory federal income tax rate adjusted for applicable state income taxes net of the related federal tax benefit.  Unrealized gains (losses) on available for sale securities and changes in fair value on mortgage loans held for sale are excluded from the average balance and yield calculations.  Nonaccrual loans, as well as interest recognized on these loans, are included in amounts presented for loans.
