BEDMINSTER, NJ, April 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire -- Peapack-Gladstone Financial Corporation (NASDAQ Global Select Market: PGC) (the "Company") announces its first quarter 2024 financial results.
This earnings release should be read in conjunction with the Company's Q1 2024 Investor Update, a copy of which is available on our website at www.pgbank.com and via a current report on Form 8-K on the website of the Securities and Exchange Commission at www.sec.gov.
The Company recorded total revenue of $53.1 million, net income of $8.6 million and diluted earnings per share ("EPS") of $0.48 for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to revenue of $62.0 million, net income of $18.4 million and diluted EPS of $1.01 for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.
The Company's return on average assets was 0.54%, return on average equity was 5.94%, and return on average tangible equity was 6.45% for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
The net interest margin declined to 2.20% for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to 2.29% for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 and 2.88% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023.
During the first quarter of 2024, deposits grew $202.6 million to $5.48 billion, loans decreased $73.7 million to $5.36 billion and overnight borrowings were reduced by $284.3 million. The Company's liquidity position remains stable as balance sheet liquidity, as a percentage of total assets, increased to 12.1% or $776.8 million. The Company also had $2.9 billion of external borrowing capacity available, which, when combined with on balance sheet liquidity, provides us with 303% coverage of our uninsured deposits.
Douglas L. Kennedy, President and CEO said, "The first quarter continued to present headwinds for our organization with margin compression and credit quality our primary areas of concern. As we work through this challenging economic environment, we continue to thoroughly analyze our loan portfolio for areas of potential stress. We are fortunate to be able to rely on a consistent stream of fee revenue in this difficult interest rate environment led by Wealth Management fees and other noninterest income which represented 35% of total revenue in the first quarter of 2024."
Mr. Kennedy also noted, "Despite the economic challenges facing the financial services industry, we are moving forward with our expansion into New York City. We recently announced that we have successfully recruited and hired over 10 commercial private banking teams to work alongside the existing New York City teams hired during 2023. These new teams will be led by Andrew Corrado, who is a seasoned leader with more than 35 years of experience in this space. We believe that this ongoing strategic expansion will enhance our liquidity, enable us to diversify our balance sheet, improve profitability and provide favorable operating leverage in the years to come."

SUPPLEMENTAL QUARTERLY DETAILS:
Wealth Management
AUM/AUA in the Bank's Wealth Management Division were $11.5 billion at March 31, 2024 compared to $10.9 billion at December 31, 2023. For the March 2024 quarter, the Wealth Management Team generated $14.4 million in fee income, compared to $13.8 million for the December 31, 2023 quarter and $13.8 million for the March 2023 quarter. The equity markets improved during Q1 2024, contributing to the increase in AUM/AUA along with gross new business inflows of $236 million.
John Babcock, President of the Bank's Wealth Management Division, noted, "2024 included total new accounts and client additions of $236 million ($138 million managed). As we look forward into 2024, our new business pipeline is healthy, and we remain focused on delivering excellent service and advice to our clients. Our highly skilled wealth management professionals, our fiduciary powers and expertise, our financial planning capabilities combined with our high-touch client service model distinguishes us in our market and continues to drive our growth and success."
Loans / Commercial Banking
Total loans declined $73.7 million, or 1%, to $5.36 billion at March 31, 2024 when compared to the previous linked quarter. Total C&I loans and leases at March 31, 2024 were $2.24 billion or 42% of the total loan portfolio.
Mr. Kennedy noted, "As previously mentioned, we have tightened our underwriting guidelines due to economic uncertainty. Originations have also slowed due to the rate environment. As a result, our outstanding loan balances declined during Q1 2024. We are proud to have built a leading middle market commercial banking franchise, as evidenced by our C&I Portfolio, Treasury Management services, Corporate Advisory and SBA businesses. We believe these business lines fit perfectly with our private banking business model and will generate solid production going forward."
Net Interest Income (NII)/Net Interest Margin (NIM)
The Company's NII of $34.4 million and NIM of 2.20% for Q1 2024 decreased $2.3 million and 9 basis point from NII of $36.7 million and NIM of 2.29% for the linked quarter (Q4 2023), respectively, and decreased $9.6 million and 68 basis points from NII of $44.0 million and NIM of 2.88% for the prior year period (Q1 2023), respectively. When comparing Q1 2024 to the prior periods, the Company has seen a sharp increase in interest expense mostly driven by higher deposit rates during 2023 and into 2024 and a greater proportion of the portfolio in higher-costing checking accounts and certificates of deposit. Cycle to date betas are approximately 52%. Clients continue to migrate out of noninterest bearing checking products and into higher yielding alternatives, which leads to intense competition for deposit balances from other banks. Customers are also pursuing alternative investment opportunities due to the significant rise in interest rates.
Funding / Liquidity / Interest Rate Risk Management
Total deposits increased $202.6 million to $5.48 billion at March 31, 2024 from $5.27 billion at December 31, 2023. The increase in deposits was used to lower the amount of overnight borrowings from $403.8 million at December 31, 2023 to $119.5 million at March 31, 2024.
At March 31, 2024, the Company's balance sheet liquidity (investments available for sale, interest-earning deposits and cash) totaled $776.8 million, or 12% of assets.
The Company maintains additional liquidity resources of approximately $2.9 billion through secured available funding with the Federal Home Loan Bank and the Federal Reserve Discount Window. The available funding from the Federal Home Loan Bank and the Federal Reserve are secured by the Company's loan and investment portfolios.
The Company's total on and off-balance sheet liquidity totaled $3.7 billion, which is 303% of the total uninsured/uncollateralized deposits on the Company balance sheet.
Income from Capital Markets Activities
Noninterest income from Capital Markets activities (detailed below) totaled $1.3 million for the March 2024 quarter compared to $296,000 for the December 2023 quarter and $966,000 for the March 2023 quarter. The March 2024 quarter included $818,000 of Corporate Advisory fee income.

Other Noninterest Income (other than Wealth Management Fee Income and Income from Capital Markets Activities)
Other noninterest income was $3.0 million for Q1 2024 compared to $3.5 million for Q4 2023 and $3.3 million for Q1 2023. Q1 2024 included $141,000 of income recorded by the Equipment Finance Division related to equipment transfers to lessees upon the termination of leases while Q4 2023 included $309,000 and Q1 2023 included $145,000 respectively. Additionally, Q1 2024 included $827,000 of unused line fees compared to $750,000 for Q4 2023 and $852,000 for Q1 2023.
Operating Expenses
The Company's total operating expenses were $40.0 million for the first quarter of 2024, compared to $37.6 million for the December 2023 quarter and $35.6 million for the March 2023 quarter. The March 2024 and December 2023 quarters included expenses associated with the Company's expansion into New York City.
Mr. Kennedy noted, "We continue to make investments related to our strategic decision to expand into New York City as evidenced by the hiring of a senior leader and 10+ commercial private banking teams during the first quarter of 2024. We will continue to manage expenses throughout the Company and continue to look for opportunities to create efficiencies while also investing in digital and other software tools to further enhance the client experience."
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was 30.4%, as compared to 26.0% for the December 2023 quarter and 26.4% for the quarter ended March 31, 2023. The higher tax rate for the March 2024 quarter was primarily due to the impact of vesting of restricted stock at prices lower than original grant prices.
Asset Quality / Provision for Credit Losses
Nonperforming assets (which does not include modified loans that are performing in accordance with their terms) were $69.8 million, or 1.09% of total assets at March 31, 2024, as compared to $61.3 million, or 0.95% of total assets at December 31, 2023. Loans past due 30 to 89 days and still accruing were $73.7 million, or 1.37% of total loans at March 31, 2024 compared to $34.6 million, or 0.64% of total loans at December 31, 2023. The Q1 2024 loans past due 30 to 89 days and still accruing included $25.2 million to federal and state governmental entities, $15.0 million to a single equipment finance customer and $28.9 million to two multifamily sponsors.
Criticized and classified loans totaled $177.3 million at March 31, 2024, reflecting an increase from December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023 levels. The Company currently has no loans or leases on deferral and accruing.
For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, the Company's provision for credit losses was $615,000 compared to $5.0 million for the December 2023 quarter and $1.5 million for the March 2023 quarter. The provision for credit losses in the first quarter of 2024 was positive despite a decline in loans and improved GDP forecasts, as the Company experienced an increase in past due and criticized and classified loans.
At March 31, 2024, the allowance for credit losses was $66.3 million (1.24% of total loans), compared to $65.9 million (1.21% of loans) at December 31, 2023, and $62.3 million (1.16% of loans) at March 31, 2023.
Capital
The Company's capital position declined during the first quarter of 2024 due to the repurchase of 100,000 shares through the Company's stock repurchase program at a total cost of $2.4 million and payment of a quarterly dividend of $887,000. Additionally, during the first quarter of 2024, the Company recorded deterioration in accumulated other comprehensive losses of $2.9 million, net of tax. This amount was driven by a $5.0 million decrease in the value of the available for sale securities portfolio partially offset by a $2.1 million gain on cash flow hedges. The total accumulated other comprehensive loss declined to $67.8 million as of March 31, 2024 ($74.8 million loss related to the available for sale securities portfolio partially offset by a $7.0 million gain on the cash flow hedges). These changes were partially offset by net income of $8.6 million.
Tangible book value per share decreased during Q1 2024 to $30.21 at March 31, 2024 from $30.31 at December 31, 2023. Tangible book value per share is a non-GAAP financial measure. See the reconciliation tables included in this release for further detail. The Company's and Bank's regulatory capital ratios as of March 31, 2024 remain strong, and reflect increases from December 31, 2023 levels. Where applicable, such ratios remain well above regulatory well capitalized standards.
The Company employs quarterly capital stress testing modeling of an adverse case and severely adverse case. In the most recently completed stress test (as of December 31, 2023), under the severely adverse case, and no growth scenario, the Bank remains well capitalized over a two-year stress period.
On March 28, 2024, the Company declared a cash dividend of $0.05 per share payable on May 23, 2024 to shareholders of record on May 9, 2024.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES RECONCILIATION
Tangible book value per share and tangible equity as a percentage of tangible assets at period end are non-GAAP financial measures derived from GAAP-based amounts. We calculate tangible equity and tangible assets by excluding the balance of intangible assets from shareholders' equity and total assets, respectively. We calculate tangible book value per share by dividing tangible equity by common shares outstanding, as compared to book value per common share, which we calculate by dividing shareholders' equity by common shares outstanding at period end. We calculate tangible equity as a percentage of tangible assets at period end by dividing tangible equity by tangible assets at period end. We believe that this is consistent with the treatment by bank regulatory agencies, which exclude intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios.
The efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure of expense control relative to recurring revenue. We calculate the efficiency ratio by dividing total noninterest expenses, excluding other real estate owned provision, as determined under GAAP, by net interest income and total noninterest income as determined under GAAP, but excluding net gains/(losses) on loans held for sale at lower of cost or fair value and excluding net gains on securities from this calculation, which we refer to below as recurring revenue. We believe that this provides a reasonable measure of core expenses relative to core revenue.
We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide information that is important to investors and useful in understanding our financial position, results and ratios because our management internally assesses our performance based, in part, on these measures. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for an analysis based on GAAP measures. As other companies may use different calculations for these measures, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titles measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures of tangible common equity, tangible book value per share and efficiency ratio to the underlying GAAP numbers is set forth below.
