Seacoast Banking reports Q1 EPS 37c, consensus 35c

Reports Q1 revenue $125.6M, consensus $127.74M. Reports Q1 tangible book value per share $15.26. Charles M. Shaffer, Seacoast’s Chairman and CEO, said, “As the complexity of our successful period of sequential acquisitions falls further in the rearview mirror, I was pleased with our focus on organic customer acquisition, which resulted in growth in noninterest-bearing accounts and strong annualized deposit growth of 8%. Over the past 24 months, we have focused on acquiring the best banking talent across Florida, and we are now seeing an accelerated return on that investment. The combination of strategic investments in talent, marketing, and innovative products is driving growth across our markets, and we are exiting the first quarter with robust pipelines across all of our businesses.”
