DETAILED FINANCIALS

ServisFirst Bancshares, Inc. reported net income and net income available to common stockholders of $43.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to net income and net income available to common stockholders of $37.6 million for the same quarter in 2019. Basic and diluted earnings per common share were $0.80 and $0.80, respectively, for the third quarter of 2020, compared to $0.70 and $0.69, respectively, for the third quarter of 2019.

Annualized return on average assets was 1.54% and annualized return on average common stockholders’ equity was 18.43% for the third quarter of 2020, compared to 1.67% and 18.69%, respectively, for the third quarter of 2019.

Net interest income was $85.1 million for the third quarter of 2020, compared to $83.2 million for the second quarter of 2020 and $73.0 million for the third quarter of 2019. The net interest margin in the third quarter of 2020 was 3.14% compared to 3.32% in the second quarter of 2020 and 3.36% in the third quarter of 2019. Origination of PPP loans and increased excess liquidity drove unfavorable rate and mix changes while lower deposit rates and increases in noninterest bearing demand balances drove favorable rate and mix changes, respectively. Accretion of net fees on PPP loans of $4.0 million during the third quarter of 2020 offset the decrease in loan yield by approximately 19 basis points.

Average loans for the third quarter of 2020 were $8.36 billion, an increase of $31.5 million, or 2% annualized, over average loans of $8.33 billion for the second quarter of 2020, and an increase of $1.40 billion, or 20%, over average loans of $6.96 billion for the third quarter of 2019. We originated over 4,900 PPP loans during 2020 for a total of $1.05 billion. Excluding PPP loans, average loans for the third quarter of 2020 were $7.31 billion, a decrease of $136.0 million compared to the second quarter of 2020, and an increase of $350.6 million, or 5%, over average loans for the third quarter of 2019.

Average total deposits for the third quarter of 2020 were $9.47 billion, an increase of $595.4 million, or 27% annualized, over average total deposits of $8.87 billion for the second quarter of 2020, and an increase of $1.89 billion, or 25%, over average total deposits of $7.58 billion for the third quarter of 2019.

Nonperforming assets to total assets were 0.29% for the third quarter of 2020, an increase of three basis points compared to 0.26% for the second quarter of 2020 and a decrease of 23 basis points compared to 0.52% for the third quarter of 2019. Annualized net charge-offs to average loans were 0.54%, a 34 basis-point increase compared to 0.20% for the second quarter of 2020 and an increase of five basis points compared to 0.49% for the third quarter of 2019. The increase in net charge-offs for the third quarter of 2020 was due to a $7.2 million loan charge-off on a borrower severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. We recorded a $12.3 million provision for loan losses in the third quarter of 2020 compared to $10.3 million in the second quarter of 2020 and $7.0 million in the third quarter of 2019. The allowance for loan loss as a percentage of total loans was 1.09% at September 30, 2020, a decrease of one basis point compared to 1.10% at June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2019, respectively. Excluding PPP loans, for all periods discussed, the allowance for loan loss as a percentage of total loans was 1.24% at September 30, 2020, a decrease of two basis points compared to 1.26% at June 30, 2020 and an increase of 14 basis points compared to 1.10% at September 30, 2019. The CARES Act, passed into law on March 27, 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, allows companies to delay their adoption of Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (CECL), including the current expected credit losses methodology for estimating allowances for credit losses. We have elected to delay adoption of ASU 2016-13 until the date on which the national emergency concerning the COVID-19 outbreak terminates or December 31, 2020, with an effective retrospective implementation date of January 1, 2020. In management’s opinion, the allowance is adequate and was determined by consistent application of ServisFirst Bank’s methodology for calculating its allowance for loan losses.

Noninterest income for the third quarter of 2020 increased $2.0 million, or 32%, to $8.2 million from $6.2 million in the third quarter of 2019. Mortgage banking revenue increased $1.2 million, or 89%, from the third quarter of 2019 to the third quarter of 2020. Mortgage loan origination volumes increased approximately 96% during the third quarter of 2020 when compared to the same quarter in 2019. Credit card revenue decreased $28,000, or 2%, to $1.8 million during the third quarter of 2020, compared to the third quarter of 2019. The amount of spend on purchase cards increased $23.0 million while the amount of spend on business credit cards decreased $8.0 million during the third quarter of 2020 when compared to the third quarter of 2019. Purchase card spend carries lower profit margins than credit cards due to their higher rebates. Income on life insurance policies increased $946,000, or 120%, to $1.7 million during the third quarter of 2020, compared to $787,000 during the third quarter of 2019. We purchased $75.0 million in BOLI contracts at the end of the third quarter of 2019 and another $40.0 million in July 2020. Other income for the third quarter of 2020 decreased $191,000, or 42%, to $262,000 from $453,000 in the third quarter of 2019. On May 4, 2020 we bought an interest rate cap with a term of three years and a notional amount of $300 million. The cap is tied to one-month LIBOR with a strike rate of 0.50%. We wrote down the value of the cap by $342,000 during the third quarter of 2020 and by $595,000 year-to-date through other income and are amortizing the fee paid to our counterparty over the life of the cap.

Noninterest expense for the third quarter of 2020 increased $1.4 million, or 6%, to $26.6 million from $25.2 million in the third quarter of 2019, and decreased $2.2 million, or 8%, on a linked quarter basis. Salary and benefit expense for the third quarter of 2020 decreased $505,000, or 3%, to $15.0 million from $15.5 million in the third quarter of 2019, and decreased $798,000, or 5%, on a linked quarter basis. Costs to originate PPP loans totaling $2.4 million were incurred during the second quarter of 2020. These costs were credited against salary and benefits as a deferred expense and will be amortized over the life of the loans by netting them against accretion of deferred origination fees. Bonuses of approximately $2.5 million were paid during the second quarter of 2020 related to work performed on the PPP. Additional bonuses of $71,000 were paid to front-line employees who continued to assist customers during the peak of the pandemic. The number of FTE employees decreased to 486 as of September 30, 2020 compared to 492 as of June 30, 2020 and 506 as of September 30, 2019. Equipment and occupancy expense increased $169,000, or 7%, to $2.6 million in the third quarter of 2020, from $2.4 million in the third quarter of 2019. Third party processing expenses increased $358,000, or 12%, to $3.3 million in the third quarter of 2020, from $2.9 million in the third quarter of 2019. Professional services expense increased $68,000, or 8%, to $955,000 in the third quarter of 2020, from $887,000 in the third quarter of 2019, and decreased $136,000, or 12%, from $1.1 million on a linked-quarter basis. FDIC and other regulatory assessments were $1.1 million in the third quarter of 2020 compared to a credit of $296,000 in the third quarter of 2019. The net assessment credit for the third quarter of 2019 resulted from the FDIC’s Small Bank Assessment Credit recorded by the Bank. Expenses associated with other real estate owned increased $41,000 to $119,000 in the third quarter of 2020, from $78,000 in the third quarter of 2019. Other operating expenses for the third quarter of 2020 decreased $76,000, or 2%, to $3.6 million from $3.7 million in the third quarter of 2019, and decreased $481,000, or 12%, on a linked-quarter basis. The efficiency ratio was 28.50% during the third quarter of 2020 compared to 31.76% during the third quarter of 2019 and compared to 31.92% during the second quarter of 2020.

Income tax expense increased $1.5 million, or 16%, to $11.0 million in the third quarter of 2020, compared to $9.5 million in the third quarter of 2019. Our effective tax rate was 20.29% for the third quarter of 2020 compared to 20.20% for the third quarter of 2019. State of Alabama tax credit investments matured at the end of 2019, causing our state credit amounts to decrease from $497,000 during the third quarter of 2019 to $132,000 during the third quarter of 2020. We recognized a reduction in provision for income taxes resulting from excess tax benefits from the exercise and vesting of stock options and restricted stock during the third quarters of 2020 and 2019 of $180,000 and $231,000, respectively.

The Company’s 5% Subordinated Notes due July 15, 2025 became redeemable in July 2020. Those Notes are being redeemed in the fourth quarter of 2020 and replaced with up to $37 million in 4% subordinated notes to be offered to holders of the redeemed Notes.
