MARTINSVILLE, VA / ACCESSWIRE / October 24, 2024 / Carter Bankshares, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ:CARE), the holding company of Carter Bank & Trust (the "Bank") today announced quarterly net income of $5.6 million, or $0.24 diluted earnings per share ("EPS"), for the third quarter of 2024 compared to net income of $4.8 million, or $0.21 diluted EPS, for the second quarter of 2024 and net income of $3.6 million, or $0.16 diluted EPS, for the third quarter of 2023. The pre-tax pre-provision income1 was $6.8 million for the third quarter of 2024, $6.2 million for the second quarter of 2024 and $5.4 million for the third quarter of 2023.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, net income was $16.2 million, or $0.70 diluted EPS, compared to net income of $25.3 million, or $1.07 diluted EPS for the same period in 2023. Pre-tax pre-provision income1 was $20.2 million and $33.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
During the third quarter of 2024, the Company obtained a voluntary stipulation of dismissal of the lawsuit filed against the Bank in the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia (Danville Division) on February 10, 2024 (the "GLAS Trust Lawsuit") by GLAS Trust Company, LLC, in its capacity as Note Trustee ("GLAS Trust") "with prejudice." Accordingly, GLAS Trust may not bring any future legal action in any court based on the facts alleged in the GLAS Trust Lawsuit. Moreover, in connection with the dismissal of the GLAS Trust Lawsuit, GLAS Trust and certain affiliates and parties on whose behalf it is acting have executed a release that waives any and all causes of action of any kind that they might claim to have against the Bank.
The dismissal of the GLAS Trust Lawsuit ended all pending litigation brought against the Bank by GLAS Trust in connection with the Bank's lending relationship with James C. Justice, II and the entities in which he has an interest (collectively, the "Justice Entities"). Also in connection with the dismissal of the GLAS Trust Lawsuit, the Justice Entities executed documents reaffirming the legality, validity and binding nature of all loan documents they have executed in favor of the Bank.
The Company tendered a payment (the "Settlement Payment") in consideration of the voluntary dismissal of the GLAS Trust Lawsuit. In light of the fact that certain of the Justice Entities had previously agreed to indemnify the Bank against the claims asserted in the GLAS Trust Lawsuit, certain of the Justice Entities executed a promissory note in favor of the Bank further evidencing this indemnification obligation as related to the Settlement Payment. This promissory note was recognized as a principal charge-off due to the nonperforming status of the Bank's loans with the Justice Entities, and because the settled claims related to allegedly preferential payments made on those nonperforming loans.
The Company's financial results continue to be significantly impacted by placing loans contained in the Bank's Other segment on nonaccrual status during the second quarter of 2023. The Bank's loans to the Justice Entities, remain the Bank's largest lending relationship and comprise the significant majority of the Other segment. As a result, interest income was negatively impacted by $8.8 million and $9.3 million during the third quarter of 2024 and 2023, respectively. Interest income has been negatively impacted by $57.2 million in the aggregate since placement of these loans on nonaccrual status during the second quarter of 2023.
Financial Highlights as of and for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2024
At September 30, 2024, nonperforming loans declined by $12.5 million to $287.7 million compared to June 30, 2024. Nonperforming loans to total portfolio loans were 8.00%, 8.46% and 9.04% for the quarters ended September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The decline in nonperforming loans during the third quarter of 2024 is primarily due to $13.2 million of curtailment payments made by the Bank's largest nonperforming lending relationship;
The allowance for credit losses to total portfolio loans were 2.25%, 2.72% and 2.77% at September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The decrease is primarily related to the updated analysis of the individually evaluated loans, a $15.0 million charge-off related to the Other segment of the loan portfolio, and $1.7 million of Other segment specific reserves released in connection with $13.2 million of curtailment payments in accordance with the Forbearance Agreement currently in place;
Total portfolio loans increased $46.3 million, or 5.2% on an annualized basis, to $3.6 billion at September 30, 2024 compared to June 30, 2024 and increased $184.9 million, or 5.4%, compared to September 30, 2023;
Total deposits increased $203.8 million, or 20.9% on an annualized basis, compared to June 30, 2024 and increased $525.5 million, or 14.8%, compared to September 30, 2023 of which $100.5 million were new brokered certificates of deposit ("CDs") in the third quarter of 2024;
Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") borrowings decreased $148.0 million to $90.0 million at September 30, 2024 as compared to June 30, 2024 due to deposit growth;
Net interest income totaled $28.8 million, an increase of $0.7 million, or 2.5% compared to the prior quarter, and an increase of $1.4 million, or 5.1% compared to the year ago period. Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent ("FTE") basis3, increased three basis points to 2.59% for the third quarter of 2024, compared to 2.56% for the prior quarter and increased five basis points from the year ago quarter. Net interest income and net interest margin continue to be significantly impacted by the Bank's largest lending relationship remaining on nonaccrual status since the second quarter of 2023; and
The efficiency ratio was 80.17%, 81.62% and 83.52% for the quarters ended September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The efficiency ratio was impacted primarily by the Bank's largest lending relationship that was placed in nonaccrual status during the second quarter of 2023.
Positive developments continued in the third quarter with respect to legal actions and our large nonperforming relationship. "As previously noted, the lawsuit filed by GLAS Trust Company, LLC was voluntarily dismissed with prejudice during the third quarter of 2024, and the Justice Entities have continued to curtail their debt owed to the Bank in accordance with the Forbearance Agreement currently in place. These are favorable outcomes for our Company and represent continued progress towards the ultimate resolution of our large nonperforming relationship. We remain committed to resolving this lending relationship in a manner that best protects the Company, the Bank and shareholders", stated Litz H. Van Dyke, Chief Executive Officer.
Van Dyke continued, "Although the large nonperforming lending relationship continues to have a negative impact on our financial and credit metrics, aside from this impact, our financial performance and asset quality metrics remain solid. We continue to feel positive about the fundamentals of the Company and the structure of our balance sheet. Capital and liquidity levels continue to be strong, and loan production was solid in the third quarter, although much of this production was construction lending which has a lag time before it is fully funded and earning interest. Our loan production pipeline also remains solid, providing good visibility through year end. Deposit growth is occurring in most categories, with the majority of growth coming from increases in interest checking and CD accounts. During the third quarter, the Federal Reserve cut short-term interest rates 50 basis points. We expect an immediate decline in the cost of funds in the fourth quarter from this recent rate cut. Our balance sheet is slightly liability sensitive and is well positioned so that a declining interest rate environment should positively impact our margin. We also expect that our net interest margin will return to a more normalized level once the large nonperforming lending relationship is fully resolved."
Operating Highlights
Credit Quality
Nonperforming loans as a percentage of total portfolio loans were 8.00%, 8.46% and 9.04% as of September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. At September 30, 2024, nonperforming loans decreased $12.5 million to $287.7 million since June 30, 2024. The decrease was primarily due to $13.2 million of curtailment payments made by the Bank's largest nonperforming lending relationship during the third quarter of 2024.
During the second quarter of 2023, the Company placed commercial loans in the Other segment of the Company's loan portfolio relating to the Bank's largest lending relationship with a current aggregate principal amount of $280.9 million on nonaccrual status due to loan maturities and failure to pay in full. This nonperforming relationship represents 97.6% of total nonperforming loans and 7.8% of total portfolio loans at September 30, 2024.
During the second and third quarters of 2024, $7.8 million and $13.2 million of curtailments, respectively, have decreased the aggregate nonperforming loan balance outstanding to the Bank from $301.9 million at March 31, 2024 to $280.9 million at September 30, 2024. The Company continues to believe it is well secured based on the net carrying value of the credit relationship and it has appropriately reserved for potential credit losses with respect to all such loans based on information currently available. However, the Company cannot give any assurance as to the timing or amount of future payments or collections on such loans or that the Company will ultimately collect all amounts contractually due under the terms of such loans. The Company has specific reserves of $36.9 million at September 30, 2024 with respect to such loans as compared to $52.9 million at June 30, 2024. The decline was driven by updated analysis of the credit relationship during the third quarter of 2024 using the discounted cash flow model with updated assumptions and inputs regarding the credit relationship, legal risk and related risks. The updated analysis and the impact on the specific reserves contributed to the decrease in the provision for credit losses during the third quarter of 2024 as compared to the prior quarter.
The provision for credit losses decreased $0.9 million and $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2024 and the third quarter of 2023, respectively. The decrease in the provision for credit losses as compared to the second quarter of 2024 was primarily driven by the updated analysis of the individually evaluated loans and $1.7 million of other segment reserves released due to the aforementioned $13.2 million of curtailment payments during the third quarter of 2024, offset by loan growth in the third quarter of 2024.
The provision for unfunded commitments in the third quarter of 2024 was a provision of $191 thousand compared to a recovery of $236 thousand in the second quarter of 2024 and a recovery of $130 thousand in the third quarter of 2023. The increase was due to increased commitments in construction loans during the third quarter of 2024.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income increased $0.7 million to $28.8 million compared to the second quarter of 2024 and increased $1.4 million compared to the third quarter of 2023. Net interest margin, on a FTE basis3, increased three basis points to 2.59% compared to the second quarter of 2024 and increased five basis points compared to the third quarter of 2023. The increase in interest-earning income was primarily due to a 17 basis point increase in the yield on average loans from 5.26% in the second quarter of 2024 to 5.43% in the third quarter of 2024, as well as a higher average loan balance.
Net interest margin, on an FTE basis3, continues to be negatively impacted by funding costs. Total interest-bearing deposit costs increased 18 basis points to 3.05% compared to 2.87% in the second quarter of 2024. The higher interest-bearing deposit costs were primarily due to growth in average certificates of deposits of $104.0 million and interest-bearing demand of $71.9 million compared to the second quarter of 2024. The increase in deposit costs is offset by total average borrowings which decreased $110.1 million to $181.5 million compared to $291.6 million in the second quarter of 2024 due to higher average deposit balances. Total borrowing costs declined 20 basis points to 5.00% compared to 5.20% in the second quarter of 2024.
Net interest income decreased $9.6 million, or 10.1%, to $85.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, reflecting the impact of rising rates on funding costs more than offsetting loan growth and higher loan and securities yields. Net interest margin, on an FTE basis3, decreased 41 basis points to 2.59% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to 3.00% for the same period in 2023. Funding costs increased 104 basis points, offset by an increase of 43 basis points on the yield on earning assets for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023.
The decline in net interest income and net interest margin were significantly driven by the aforementioned large nonperforming lending relationship, which negatively impacted interest income by $27.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 as compared to $20.7 million for the same period in 2023. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, $956.0 million of CDs matured and repriced from an average rate of 4.13% to an average rate of 4.44%.
Our balance sheet is currently exhibiting characteristics of a slightly liability sensitive position due to the short-term nature of our deposit portfolio and FHLB borrowings. Specifically, 82.46% of our CD portfolio and 50.0% of our outstanding FHLB borrowings will mature and reprice over the next twelve months. This strategy gives us flexibility to manage the structure and pricing of our deposit and borrowing portfolios to reduce future funding costs should the Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC") continue cutting short-term rates in the future.
Noninterest Income
For the third quarter of 2024, total noninterest income was $5.4 million, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 2.0%, from the second quarter of 2024 and an increase of $0.2 million, or 2.9%, compared to the third quarter of 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, total noninterest income was $16.0 million, an increase of $1.0 million, or 6.4%, from the same period in 2023.
The decrease of $0.1 million in noninterest income compared to the second quarter of 2024 primarily related to a decrease of $0.2 million in other noninterest income as a result of community development grants received in the second quarter of 2024, offset by an increase of $0.1 million in insurance commissions due to higher activity. The increases compared to the third quarter of 2023 and the nine months ended September 30, 2023were also related to higher insurance commissions in the current period.
Noninterest Expense
For the third quarter of 2024, total noninterest expense remained flat at $27.4 million compared to the second quarter of 2024 and increased $0.2 million, or 0.6% from the third quarter of 2023. For the nine months ended September 30, 2024, total noninterest expenses was $81.1 million, an increase of $4.7 million, or 6.2%, from the same period in 2023.
As compared to the second quarter of 2024, the significant variances offset one another with decreases in other noninterest expense and professional and legal fees, offset by increases in salaries and employee benefits, occupancy expenses and data processing expenses that net to a decrease of less than $0.1 million.
Total noninterest expense increased $0.2 million compared to the third quarter of 2023 due to similar significant variances to the prior quarter of 2024. The increases in salaries and employee benefits resulted from higher salary expenses due to fewer open positions in retail, job grade assessment increases and normal merit increases of $0.6 million. The increase in occupancy expenses, net of $0.4 million was due to new software license and depreciation expense in the third quarter of 2024, and the increase in data processing expenses of $0.3 million relates primarily to general inflationary cost increases for existing and new service agreements. These increases were offset by decreases of $1.1 million in other noninterest expense related to a gain of $0.5 million on a closed office that was sold in the third quarter of 2024, write-downs of $0.6 million on three legacy other real estate owned ("OREO") properties and write-downs of $0.2 million on two additional closed offices in the third quarter of 2023. The decrease in professional and legal fees related to reimbursement of expenses in connection with the current forbearance agreement with the large nonperforming lending relationship.
The most significant increases for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same period in 2023, included similar variances to the year ago quarter. However, the year-to-date variance was also impacted by an increase of $2.1 million in FDIC insurance expense, which was a direct result of the aforementioned large nonperforming lending relationship. The similar variances were an increase of $1.8 million in salaries and employee benefits, an increase of $0.9 million in occupancy expenses, and an increase of $0.6 million in data processing expenses. Debit card expense also increased $0.4 million related to discounts received in March of 2023. Offsetting these increases was a $1.6 million decline in other noninterest expenses which include the gains on the sale and write-downs on OREO properties mentioned above in the third quarter of 2024, but also includes gains of $0.3 million on two other closed offices sold in the first quarter of 2024, previously written down in the third quarter of 2023.
Financial Condition
Cash and due from banks increased $43.3 million to $105.0 million at September 30, 2024 compared to $61.7 million at June 30, 2024 primarily due to higher excess cash on hand in the third quarter of 2024. The available-for-sale securities portfolio decreased $3.7 million and is currently 16.1% of total assets at September 30, 2024 compared to 16.5% of total assets at June 30, 2024. The decrease is due to maturities deployed into higher yielding loan assets during the three months ended September 30, 2024.
Total portfolio loans increased $46.3 million, or 5.2% on an annualized basis, to $3.6 billion at September 30, 2024 compared to June 30, 2024. The increase in loans primarily related to growth in commercial real estate loans of $56.6 million offset by the aforementioned $13.2 million of curtailment payments compared to June 30, 2024.
Total deposits increased $203.8 million, or 20.9% on an annualized basis, to $4.1 billion at September 30, 2024 compared to June 30, 2024. Deposits increased primarily due to growth in CDs of $167.9 million, an increase of $83.6 million in interest-bearing demand accounts, and an increase of $3.7 million in money market accounts, offset by a decrease of $27.0 million in savings accounts, and a decrease of $24.4 million in noninterest-bearing demand accounts. The Company had $216.1 million brokered CDs at September 30, 2024 and $115.6 million at June 30, 2024, as a result of $100.5 million new brokered CDs.
FHLB borrowings decreased $148.0 million to $90.0 million at September 30, 2024 compared to $238.0 million at June 30, 2024 primarily due to a decline in overnight borrowings, offset by $100.5 million of new brokered CDs during the third quarter of 2024, as well as deposit growth.
As of September 30, 2024, approximately 82.7% of our total deposits of $4.1 billion were insured under standard FDIC insurance coverage limits, and approximately 17.3% of our total deposits were uninsured deposits over the standard FDIC insurance coverage limit. As of June 30, 2024, approximately 82.8% of our total deposits of $3.9 billion were insured under standard FDIC insurance coverage limits, and approximately 17.2% of our total deposits were uninsured deposits over the standard FDIC insurance coverage limit. The Company had no outstanding federal funds purchased at September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024.
Capitalization and Liquidity
The Company remained well capitalized as of September 30, 2024. The Company's Tier 1 Capital ratio was 10.83% at September 30, 2024 compared to 10.95% at June 30, 2024. The Company's leverage ratio was 9.53% at September 30, 2024 compared to 9.43% at June 30, 2024. The Company's Total Risk-Based Capital ratio was 12.09% at September 30, 2024 compared to 12.22% at June 30, 2024.
At September 30, 2024, funding sources accessible to the Company include borrowing availability at the FHLB, equal to 25.0% of the Company's assets or approximately $1.2 billion, subject to the amount of eligible collateral pledged, of which the Company is eligible to borrow up to an additional $791.4 million. The Company has unsecured facilities with three other correspondent financial institutions totaling $30.0 million, a fully secured facility with one other correspondent financial institution totaling $45.0 million, and access to the institutional CD market. The Company did not have outstanding borrowings on these fed funds lines as of September 30, 2024. In addition to the above funding resources, the Company also has $433.3 million unpledged available-for-sale investment securities, at fair value, as an additional source of liquidity.
