Enterprise Bancorp, Inc. Announces Second Quarter Financial Results

LOWELL, Mass., July 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Enterprise Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: EBTC), parent of Enterprise Bank, announced its financial results for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Net income amounted to $9.5 million, or $0.77 per diluted common share, for the three months ended June 30, 2024 compared to $8.5 million, or $0.69 per diluted common share, for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and $9.7 million, or $0.79 per diluted common share, for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Selected financial results at or for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 compared to March 31, 2024 were as follows:

  • The returns on average assets and average equity were 0.82% and 11.55%, respectively.
  • Tax-equivalent net interest margin (non-GAAP) (“net interest margin”) was 3.19%, a decrease of 1 basis point.
  • Net interest income increased 2.8%.
  • Total loans and total deposits increased 3.1% and 3.5%, respectively.
  • Wealth assets under management and administration amounted to $1.40 billion, an increase of 1.7%.

Chief Executive Officer Steven Larochelle commented, “We had a solid second quarter with strong net income and loan growth funded through core deposits. Higher deposit costs and the inverted yield curve continue to be a headwind, but net interest margin was stable at 3.19%. Our liquidity position was favorable at June 30, 2024 with the loan to deposit ratio at 89% and interest-earning deposits with banks exceeding wholesale funding by $89.6 million. Credit quality remained strong with nominal charge-offs year-to-date.”

Mr. Larochelle continued, “We remain committed to our long-term strategy of geographic expansion and customer acquisition through organic growth and investment in our team members, communities, products and technology. We are well positioned with a strong balance sheet, centered around a high-quality loan portfolio and favorable liquidity, core deposit funding and capital, paired with a conservative credit and reserve culture.”

Executive Chairman & Founder George Duncan stated, “I would like to thank Jack Clancy, who retired as Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank on June 7, 2024, for his valuable contributions over the past 35 years. Steve Larochelle, who succeeded Jack as Chief Executive Officer, has been a key member of our leadership team for the past 27 years, including the last 15 years as our Chief Banking Officer. Steve has been a significant contributor to our success and has handled a wide range of leadership responsibilities including the areas of commercial lending, cash management, wealth management, mortgage services, and branch operations. Steve is a great champion of our culture and takes pride in strong relationships with our customers and communities. He is the perfect person for our Chief Executive Officer role, and I am excited to have him lead us forward.”

President Richard W. Main added, “I echo George’s comments on Steve’s leadership experience and on his commitment to our culture. We pride ourselves on understanding the unique needs of each customer and offering tailored solutions that lead to long-term relationships. The strength and depth of the relationships we have developed with our customers are a testament to our unwavering commitment to their success, which in turn has contributed to our history of consistent growth.”

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2024, amounted to $36.2 million, a decrease of $1.9 million, or 5%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was due primarily to an increase in deposit interest expense of $9.5 million and a decrease in interest and dividend income on investments of $1.0 million, partially offset by an increase in loan interest income of $9.4 million. The increase in interest expense during the period was attributed primarily to an increase in the cost of funds and changes in deposit mix, while the increase in interest income during the period was due primarily to loan growth and higher market interest rates.

Net Interest Margin

Net interest margin was 3.19% for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 3.20% for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 3.55% for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Asset yields for the second quarter of 2024 were 5.01% and increased 12 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2024, due primarily to new loan originations, loan repricing and an increase in the average balance of other interest-earning assets, which resulted mainly from deposit inflows during the period. Average total loans increased $100.3 million, or 3%, and average other interest-earning assets increased $37.8 million, or 44%, during the period.

The cost of funds for the second quarter of 2024 was 1.94% and increased 12 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2024. During the second quarter of 2024, average total deposits increased $129.2 million, or 3%, and the cost of deposits increased 13 basis points. The average balance of lower cost checking accounts increased $33.4 million, or 2%, and the average balance of higher cost savings, money market and certificate of deposit accounts increased $95.9 million, or 5%.

Provision for Credit Losses

The provision for credit losses for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023 are presented below:

    Three months ended   Increase / (Decrease)
(Dollars in thousands)   June 30,
2024
  June 30,
2023
Provision for credit losses on loans – collectively evaluated   $ (230 )   $ 2,210     $ (2,440 )
Provision for credit losses on loans – individually evaluated     1,358       (167 )     1,525  
Provision for credit losses for loans     1,128       2,043       (915 )
             
Provision for unfunded commitments     (991 )     225       (1,216 )
             
Provision for credit losses   $ 137     $ 2,268     $ (2,131 )
 

The decrease in the provision for credit losses on loans of $915 thousand was due primarily to the impact of a reduction in recession risk within our allowance for credit loss (“ACL”) model, partially offset by an increase in reserves on individually evaluated loans. The reduction in the provision for unfunded commitments of $1.2 million was driven primarily by a decrease in off-balance sheet commitments during the period.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2024, amounted to $5.6 million, an increase of $2.8 million compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. Non-interest income in the prior year period included losses on sales of debt securities of $2.4 million. Excluding this item, non-interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2024 increased 7% compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023, due primarily to increases in wealth management fees and income on bank-owned life insurance.

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024, amounted to $29.0 million, an increase of $3.4 million, or 13%, compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023. Non-interest expense in the prior year period was impacted by the receipt of $3.4 million in Employee Retention Credits which the Company recognized as a reduction to salary and benefits expense. Excluding this item, non-interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2024 decreased $25 thousand compared to the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Balance Sheet

Total assets amounted to $4.77 billion at June 30, 2024, compared to $4.47 billion at December 31, 2023, an increase of 7%.

Total interest-earning deposits with banks, which consist of overnight and short-term investments, amounted to $151.4 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $19.1 million at December 31, 2023. The increase was due primarily to deposit inflows, partially offset by loan growth.

Total investment securities at fair value amounted to $636.8 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $668.2 million at December 31, 2023. The decrease of 5% was largely attributable to principal pay-downs, calls and maturities during the six months ended June 30, 2024. Unrealized losses on debt securities amounted to $106.2 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $102.9 million at December 31, 2023, an increase of 3%.

Total loans amounted to $3.77 billion at June 30, 2024, compared to $3.57 billion at December 31, 2023. The increase of 6% was due primarily to an increase in commercial real estate loans of $140.1 million.

Total deposits amounted to $4.25 billion at June 30, 2024, compared to $3.98 billion at December 31, 2023. The increase of 7% was due primarily to increases in money market and certificate of deposit balances of $101.6 million and $98.0 million, respectively.

Total borrowed funds amounted to $61.8 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $25.8 million at December 31, 2023. The increase resulted from new term advances used to support the Company’s operations.

Total shareholders’ equity amounted to $340.4 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $329.1 million at December 31, 2023. The increase of 3% was due primarily to an increase in retained earnings of $12.1 million, partially offset by an increase in the accumulated other comprehensive loss of $2.5 million.

Credit Quality

Selected credit quality metrics at June 30, 2024, compared to December 31, 2023, were as follows:

  • The ACL for loans amounted to $62.0 million, or 1.65% of total loans, compared to $59.0 million, or 1.65% of total loans.
  • The reserve for unfunded commitments (included in other liabilities) amounted to $4.9 million, compared to $7.1 million.
  • Non-performing loans amounted to $17.7 million, or 0.47% of total loans, compared to $11.4 million, or 0.32% of total loans. The increase in non-performing loans resulted primarily from one individually evaluated commercial construction loan which was placed on non-accrual in the first quarter of 2024.

Net recoveries amounted to $130 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2024, compared to net charge-offs of $146 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2023.

Wealth Management

Wealth assets under management and administration, which are not carried as assets on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, amounted to $1.40 billion at June 30, 2024, an increase of $76.6 million, or 6%, compared to December 31, 2023, and resulted primarily from an increase in market value.
