TriCo Bancshares (NASDAQ: TCBK):

Executive Commentary:

“Our financial performance for the third quarter demonstrates the effectiveness and strength of adhering to a long term plan and our teams' consistent ability to execute. In addition, recent strategic hires have been transitioning at an accelerated pace and we are looking forward to their more meaningful impact in 2025," said Rick Smith, President and CEO.

Peter Wiese, EVP and CFO added, “While both net interest margin and net interest income expanded during the quarter, we continue to execute incremental balance sheet strategies to minimize the forecasted impacts of recent and anticipated interest rate cuts. More notably, the reshaping of the yield curve with less inversion will likely provide longer term benefits to revenue and earnings per share growth.”

Balance Sheet Data

Total loans outstanding were $6.7 billion as of September 30, 2024, a decrease of $24.8 million or 0.4% over September 30, 2023, and decreased by $58.6 million or 3.5% annualized as compared to the trailing quarter ended June 30, 2024. Investments increased by $30.4 million and decreased by $216.7 million for the three and twelve month periods ended September 30, 2024, and ended the quarter with a balance of $2.12 billion or 21.5% of total assets. Quarterly average earning assets to quarterly total average assets was 92.0% on September 30, 2024, compared to 91.7% at September 30, 2023. The loan-to-deposit ratio was 83.2% on September 30, 2024, as compared to 83.8% at September 30, 2023. The Company did not utilize brokered deposits during 2024 or 2023 and continues to rely on organic deposit customers and short-term borrowings to fund cash flow timing differences.

Total shareholders' equity increased by $64.0 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, as net income of $29.1 million and a $44.5 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive losses was partially offset by cash dividend payments on common stock of approximately $10.9 million. As a result, the Company’s book value grew to $37.55 per share at September 30, 2024, compared to $32.18 at September 30, 2023. The Company’s tangible book value per share, a non-GAAP measure, calculated by subtracting goodwill and other intangible assets from total shareholders’ equity and dividing that sum by total shares outstanding, was $28.09 per share at September 30, 2024, as compared to $22.67 at September 30, 2023. Changes in the fair value of available-for-sale investment securities, net of deferred taxes continue to create moderate levels of volatility in tangible book value per share.

Loans outstanding decreased by $58.6 million or 3.5% on an annualized basis during the quarter ended September 30, 2024. During the quarter, loan originations/draws totaled approximately $351.5 million while payoffs/repayments of loans totaled $418.8 million, which compares to originations/draws and payoffs/repayments during the trailing quarter ended of $310.1 million and $368.7 million, respectively. Origination volume and activity levels remain slightly lower relative to the comparative period in 2023 due in part to disciplined pricing and underwriting, as well as decreased borrower demand given economic uncertainties. The increase in payoffs/repayments as compared to the trailing quarter was spread amongst numerous borrowers, regions and loan types.

Investment security balances increased $30.4 million or 5.8% on an annualized basis during the quarter as a result of security purchases totaling $69.4 million, in addition to net increases in the market value of securities of $63.2 million, partially offset by net prepayments, and maturities, collectively totaling approximating $99.3 million and, to a lesser extent, sales totaling $3.0 million. Investment security purchases were comprised of floating rate instruments tied to SOFR with an initial weighted average coupon of 6.68% and a weighted average life of 5.9 years. While management intends to primarily utilize cash flows from the investment security portfolio and organic deposit growth to support loan growth, excess liquidity will be utilized for purchases of investment securities to support net interest income growth and net interest margin expansion.

Deposit balances decreased by $13.1 million or 0.7% annualized during the period, primarily due to declines in interest-bearing demand deposits, partially offset by increases in time certificates and savings deposits.

Other borrowings totaled $266.8 million at September 30, 2024, representing a net increase of $19.0 million from the trailing quarter. However, on balance sheet liquidity increased during the quarter by $113.6 million to $320.1 million as of September 30, 2024.

On September 30, 2024, the Company's primary sources of liquidity represented 51% of total deposits and 163% of estimated total uninsured (excluding collateralized municipal deposits and intercompany balances) deposits, respectively. As secondary sources of liquidity, the Company's held-to-maturity investment securities had a fair value of $112.0 million, including approximately $5.3 million in net unrealized losses.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

During the twelve-month period ended September 30, 2024, the Company's yield on total loans increased 32 basis points to 5.83% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, from 5.51% for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The tax equivalent yield on the Company's investment security portfolio was 3.46% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, an increase of 7 basis points from the 3.39% for the three months ended September 30, 2023. The cost of total interest-bearing deposits and total interest-bearing liabilities increased by 87 basis points and 69 basis points, respectively, between the three-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023. Since FOMC rate actions began in March 2022, the Company's cost of total deposits has increased 148 basis points which translates to a cycle to date deposit beta of 31.2%.

The Company continues to manage its cost of deposits through the use of various pricing and product mix strategies. As of September 30, 2024, December 31, 2023, and September 30, 2023, deposits priced utilizing these strategies totaled $1.4 billion, $1.3 billion and $1.2 billion, respectively, and carried weighted average rates of 3.80%, 3.80%, and 3.53%, respectively.

Fully taxable equivalent (FTE). All yields and rates are calculated using specific day counts for the period and year as applicable.

(2)

Net interest spread is the average yield earned on interest-earning assets minus the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities.

(3)

Net interest margin is computed by calculating the difference between interest income and interest expense, divided by the average balance of interest-earning assets.

Net interest income (FTE) during the three months ended September 30, 2024, increased $0.6 million or 0.7% to $82.9 million compared to $82.3 million during the three months ended June 30, 2024. Net interest margin totaled 3.71% for the three months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of 3 basis points from the trailing quarter. The increase in net interest income is primarily attributed to a $2.0 million decline in interest expense on borrowings due to a $150.3 million decrease in the average balance of borrowings during the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the trailing quarter. This decline in borrowing expense was partially offset by an increase in deposit interest expense totaling $1.7 million related to changes in product mix, as customers continued to migrate towards higher yielding term deposit accounts during the quarter. Deposit cost increases during the current quarter were also influenced by continued competitive pricing pressures.

As compared to the same quarter in the prior year, average loan yields increased 32 basis points from 5.51% during the three months ended September 30, 2023, to 5.83% during the three months ended September 30, 2024. The accretion of discounts from acquired loans added 6 basis points and 8 basis points to loan yields during the quarters ended September 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively. The cost of interest-bearing deposits increased by 87 basis points between the quarter ended September 30, 2024, and the same quarter of the prior year. In addition, the average balance of noninterest-bearing deposits decreased by $423.0 million from the three-month average for the period ended September 30, 2023 amidst a continued migration of customer funds to interest-bearing products.

For the quarter ended September 30, 2024, the ratio of average total noninterest-bearing deposits to total average deposits was 31.7%, as compared to 32.0% and 36.9% for the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.

Interest Rates and Earning Asset Composition

As of September 30, 2024, the Company's loan portfolio consisted of approximately $6.7 billion in outstanding principal with a weighted average coupon rate of 5.49%. During the three-month periods ending September 30, 2024, June 30, 2024, and September 30, 2023, the weighted average coupon on loan production in the quarter was 7.63%, 7.98% and 7.31%, respectively. Included in the September 30, 2024, total loans are adjustable rate loans totaling $4.2 billion, of which, $891.6 million are considered floating based on the Wall Street Prime index. In addition, the Company holds certain investment securities with fair values totaling $371.1 million which are subject to repricing on not less than a quarterly basis.

Asset Quality and Credit Loss Provisioning

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $0.2 million, as compared to $0.4 million during the trailing quarter, and $4.2 million during the third quarter of 2023.

The allowance for credit losses (ACL) was $123.8 million or 1.85% of total loans as of September 30, 2024. The Company utilizes a forecast period of approximately eight quarters and obtains the forecast data from publicly available sources as of the balance sheet date. This forecast data continues to evolve and includes improving shifts in the magnitude of changes for both the unemployment and GDP factors leading up to the balance sheet date. Core inflation is slowing but prices remain elevated relative to wage increases, as reflected by higher living costs such as housing, energy and general services. Actions by the Federal Reserve to cut rates during 2024 and beyond may help improve this outlook overall, but the uncertainty associated with the extent and timing of these potential reductions has inhibited a material change to forecasted reserve levels. Furthermore, geopolitical risks remain elevated and appear to be getting worse, which may lead to further negative effects on domestic economic outcomes. As a result, management continues to believe that certain credit weaknesses are present in the overall economy and that it is appropriate to maintain a reserve level that incorporates such risk factors.

Loans past due 30 days or more increased by $7.5 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, to $37.9 million, as compared to $30.4 million at June 30, 2024. The majority of loans identified as past due are well-secured by collateral, and approximately $16.3 million is less than 90 days delinquent. Non-performing loans were $41.6 million at September 30, 2024, an increase of $8.9 million from $32.8 million as of June 30, 2024, and an increase of $11.8 million from $29.8 million as of September 30, 2023. Management continues to proactively work with these borrowers to identify actionable and appropriate resolution strategies which are customary for the industries. Of the $41.6 million loans designated as non-performing as of September 30, 2024, approximately $10.0 million are current or less than 30 days past due with respect to payments required under their existing loan agreements.

The ratio of classified loans to total loans of 1.76% as of September 30, 2024, increased 20 basis points from June 30, 2024, and increased 55 basis points from the comparative quarter ended 2023. The change in classified loans outstanding as compared to the trailing quarter totaled $16.1 million. Loans with the risk grade classification substandard increased by $12.7 million over the trailing quarter and relate primarily to the commercial and industrial portfolio. As a percentage of total loans outstanding, classified assets remain consistent with volumes experienced prior to the recent quantitative easing cycle spurred by the COVID pandemic and reflect management's historically conservative approach to credit risk monitoring. The Company's combined criticized loan balances totaled $222.4 million as of September 30, 2024, an increase of $46.2 million from September 30, 2023.

Outstanding balances on construction loans, which have historically been associated with elevated levels of risk, experienced balance reductions of $7.3 million during the current quarter and $44.9 million since September 30, 2023. These reductions were primarily associated with balances that were converted to term loans upon the completion of construction and achievement of stabilized occupancy, and were partially offset by new draws or originations.

Management continues to proactively assess the repayment capacity of borrowers that will be subject to rate resets in the near term. To date this analysis as well as management's observations of loans that have experienced a rate reset, have resulted in an insignificant need to provide concessions to borrowers.

As of September 30, 2024, other real estate owned consisted of 10 properties with a carrying value of approximately $2.8 million, compared to 10 properties with a carrying value of approximately $2.5 million as of June 30, 2024. Non-performing assets of $44.4 million at September 30, 2024, represented 0.45% of total assets, a change from the $35.3 million or 0.36% and $32.7 million or 0.33% as of June 30, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively.

In addition to the allowance for credit losses above, the Company has acquired various performing loans whose fair value as of the acquisition date was determined to be less than the principal balance owed on those loans. This difference represents the collective discount of credit, interest rate and liquidity measurements which is expected to be amortized over the life of the loans. As of September 30, 2024, the unamortized discount associated with acquired loans totaled $21.4 million, which, when combined with the total allowance for credit losses above, represents 2.26% of total loans.

Non-interest income increased $0.5 million or 3.2% to $16.5 million during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $16.0 million during the comparative quarter ended September 30, 2023. Elevated activity and volumes of assets under management drove an increase in asset management and commission income, in addition to the benefit mentioned above related to Visa stock. These increases were partially offset by a decline in interchange fees earned related to decreased customer activity in the third quarter of 2024 as compared to the equivalent quarter in 2023.

Non-interest income increased $2.8 million or 6.1% to $48.1 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to $45.4 million during the comparative nine months ended September 30, 2023. As noted above, interchange fees as driven by customer activities was elevated in the 2023 period and resulted in a decrease of $0.9 million as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2024. Meanwhile, service charges on deposit accounts increased by $1.6 million or 12.6% as compared to the equivalent period in 2023 following $0.9 million in waived or reversed fees as a courtesy to customers in the 2023 year. As noted above, elevated activity within asset management and the gain on Visa stock further contributed to the overall improvement.

Total non-interest expense increased $1.4 million or 0.8% to $174.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to $172.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. This was largely attributed to an increase of $3.5 million or 3.5% in total salaries and benefits expense to $105.3 million, from annual compensation adjustments and other routine increases in benefits and compensation. Salaries expense was also impacted by an increase in average compensation per employee as various strategic talent acquisitions were made in order to further prepare the Company to execute its growth objectives beyond $10 billion in total assets. Additionally, data processing and software expenses increased by $1.5 million or 11.1% related to ongoing investments in the Company's data management and security infrastructure. These increases were partially offset by declines in non-cash intangible amortization expense of $1.8 million or 37.0% and reductions in operational losses of $0.8 million or 40.0% due to non-recurring ATM burglary expenses totaling $0.7 million in the comparative period.

Provision for Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate was 26.3% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, as compared to 25.8% for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, and 28.4% for the year ended December 31, 2023. Differences between the Company's effective tax rate and applicable federal and state blended statutory rate of approximately 29.6% are due to the proportion of non-taxable revenues, non-deductible expenses, and benefits from tax credits as compared to the levels of pre-tax earnings.

Forward-Looking Statements

The statements contained herein that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements based on management’s current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on the Company. Such statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and are generally beyond our control. We caution readers that a number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: the conditions of the United States economy in general and the strength of the local economies in which we conduct operations; the impact of any future federal government shutdown and uncertainty regarding the federal government’s debt limit or changes in trade, monetary and fiscal policies and laws, including interest rate policies of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System; the impacts of inflation, interest rate, market and monetary fluctuations on the Company's business condition and financial operating results; the impact of changes in financial services industry policies, laws and regulations; regulatory restrictions affecting our ability to successfully market and price our products to consumers; the risks related to the development, implementation, use and management of emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence and machine learning; extreme weather, natural disasters and other catastrophic events that may or may not be caused by climate change and their effects on the Company's customers and the economic and business environments in which the Company operates; the impact of a slowing U.S. economy, decreases in housing and commercial real estate prices, and potentially increased unemployment on the performance of our loan portfolio, the market value of our investment securities and possible other-than-temporary impairment of securities held by us due to changes in credit quality or rates; the availability of, and cost of, sources of funding and the demand for our products; adverse developments with respect to U.S. or global economic conditions and other uncertainties, including the impact of supply chain disruptions, commodities prices, inflationary pressures and labor shortages on the economic recovery and our business; the impacts of international hostilities, wars, terrorism or geopolitical events; adverse developments in the financial services industry generally such as the recent bank failures and any related impact on depositor behavior or investor sentiment; risks related to the sufficiency of liquidity; the possibility that our recorded goodwill could become impaired, which may have an adverse impact on our earnings and capital; the costs or effects of mergers, acquisitions or dispositions we may make, as well as whether we are able to obtain any required governmental approvals in connection with any such activities, or identify and complete favorable transactions in the future, and/or realize the anticipated financial and business benefits; the regulatory and financial impacts associated with exceeding $10 billion in total assets; the negative impact on our reputation and profitability in the event customers experience economic harm or in the event that regulatory violations are identified; the ability to execute our business plan in new markets; the future operating or financial performance of the Company, including our outlook for future growth and changes in the level and direction of our nonperforming assets and charge-offs; the appropriateness of the allowance for credit losses, including the assumptions made under our current expected credit losses model; any deterioration in values of California real estate, both residential and commercial; the effectiveness of the Company's asset management activities managing the mix of earning assets and in improving, resolving or liquidating lower-quality assets; the effect of changes in the financial performance and/or condition of our borrowers; changes in accounting standards and practices; changes in consumer spending, borrowing and savings habits; our ability to attract and maintain deposits and other sources of liquidity; the effects of changes in the level or cost of checking or savings account deposits on our funding costs and net interest margin; increasing noninterest expense and its impact on our financial performance; competition and innovation with respect to financial products and services by banks, financial institutions and non-traditional competitors including retail businesses and technology companies; the challenges of attracting, integrating and retaining key employees; the vulnerability of the Company's operational or security systems or infrastructure, the systems of third-party vendors or other service providers with whom the Company contracts, and the Company's customers to unauthorized access, computer viruses, phishing schemes, spam attacks, human error, natural disasters, power loss and data/security breaches and the cost to defend against and respond to such incidents; the impact of the 2023 cyber security ransomware incident, including the pending litigation, on our operations and reputation; increased data security risks due to work from home arrangements and email vulnerability; failure to safeguard personal information, and any resulting litigation; the effect of a fall in stock market prices on our brokerage and wealth management businesses; the transition from the LIBOR to new interest rate benchmarks; the emergence or continuation of widespread health emergencies or pandemics; the Company’s potential judgments, orders, settlements, penalties, fines and reputational damage resulting from pending or future litigation and regulatory investigations, proceedings and enforcement actions; and our ability to manage the risks involved in the foregoing. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting us will be the same as those anticipated by management. Additional factors that could cause results to differ materially from those described above can be found in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and all subsequent filings with the SEC under Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14, and 15(d) of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended. Such filings are also available in the “Investor Relations” section of our website, https://www.tcbk.com/investor-relations and in other documents we file with the SEC. Annualized, pro forma, projections and estimates are not forecasts and may not reflect actual results.

Non-GAAP measure

TriCo Bancshares—Non-GAAP Financial Measures (unaudited)

In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (GAAP), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management has presented these non-GAAP financial measures in this press release because it believes that they provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in the Company's core operations reflected in the current quarter's results and facilitate the comparison of our performance with the performance of our peers. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for any analysis based on GAAP. Where applicable, comparable earnings information using GAAP financial measures is also presented. Because not all companies use the same calculations, our presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures as calculated by other companies. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures, see the tables below:
