FLINT, Mich., April 28, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Citizens Republic Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq: CRBC) announced today a net loss from continuing operations of $68.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared with net losses of $106.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 and $76.0 million for the first quarter of 2010.  After incorporating the $5.6 million accrued but unpaid dividend to the preferred shareholder, Citizens reported a net loss attributable to common shareholders of $74.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared with $111.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2010 and $90.3 million for the first quarter of 2010.  Results for the first quarter of 2010 included a net loss from discontinued operations of $9.0 million.  Diluted net loss from continuing operations per share was $0.19 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, compared with $0.28 for the fourth quarter of 2010 and $0.21 for the first quarter of 2010.

"During the quarter, we substantially completed our accelerated plan to resolve problem assets that we announced last October.  The execution of that plan was right in line with our expectations," commented Cathleen Nash, president and chief executive officer.  

"We have recognized dramatic credit quality improvement by reducing the level of non-performing assets by 58%, watch list loans by 43% and delinquent loans by 61% over the last six months.  With this phase behind us, we can focus more of our energy on growing the company.  Net interest margin increased another 11 basis points this quarter.  We continue to realize consistent core deposit growth, strong liquidity and solid capital ratios.  We are in a strong position to meet our expectations of third quarter profitability," added Ms. Nash.

Key Highlights of the Quarter:

  • Problem asset resolution work substantially complete
  • Provision for loan losses fell to $89 million, declining 32% from the fourth quarter of 2010
  • Nonperforming assets decreased by $99 million from December 31, 2010.  New inflows were under $30 million, the lowest level in over four years
  • Total 30-89 day delinquencies were down $47 million and ended the quarter at 0.90% of the portfolio, the lowest level since 2006  
  • Core deposits remain strong, increasing from the previous quarter and a year ago, representing 65% of total deposits at March 31, 2011
  • Net interest margin increased to 3.53%, up 11 basis points from December 31, 2010 and 39 basis points from March 31, 2010

Balance Sheet

Total assets at March 31, 2011 were $9.7 billion, a decrease of $241.5 million or 2.4% from December 31, 2010 and a decrease of $1.9 billion or 16.5% from March 31, 2010.  The declines were primarily due to reductions in total portfolio loans as a result of the accelerated resolution of problem assets.  The decrease from March 31, 2010 was also due to the sale of Citizens' wholly-owned subsidiary, F&M Bank-Iowa ("F&M") during the second quarter of 2010.

Money market investments at March 31, 2011 totaled $495.6 million, an increase of $86.5 million or 21.1% from December 31, 2010 and a decrease of $265.2 million or 34.9% from March 31, 2010.  The increase from December 31, 2010 was directly related to reinvesting a portion of the loan portfolio paydowns into money market investments.  The decrease from March 31, 2010 was primarily the result of using money market investments to payoff maturing wholesale funding.

Investment securities at March 31, 2011 totaled $2.7 billion, an increase of $142.5 million or 5.6% from December 31, 2010 and an increase of $496.0 million or 22.8% over March 31, 2010.  Increases in investment securities were largely due to reinvesting a portion of the loan portfolio paydowns.

The following table displays total portfolio loans at quarter end for each of the last five quarters.

Decreases in total portfolio loans in the first quarter of 2011 compared to the prior quarters reflect the results of the accelerated problem asset resolution ($460.0 million), paydowns as a result of normal client activity, and charge-offs.    

Core deposits, which exclude all time deposits, totaled $5.0 billion at March 31, 2011, an increase of $143.4 million or 2.9% over December 31, 2010 and an increase of $188.0 million or 3.9% over March 31, 2010.  Time deposits totaled $2.7 billion at March 31, 2011, a decrease of $178.7 million or 6.3% from December 31, 2010 and a decrease of $977.7 million or 26.8% from March 31, 2010.  Total deposits at March 31, 2011 were $7.7 billion, essentially unchanged from December 31, 2010 and a decrease of $789.7 million or 9.3% from March 31, 2010.  Changes in deposits were the result of a continued focus on core deposits and a strategic reduction of single service high cost and brokered deposits.  The change from December 31, 2010 also reflects the year end seasonal increase in public funds balances.

Other interest-bearing liabilities, which include federal funds purchased and securities sold under agreements to repurchase, other short-term borrowings, and long-term debt, totaled $947.4 million at March 31, 2011, a decrease of $127.6 million or 11.9% from December 31, 2010 and a decrease of $423.5 million or 30.9% from March 31, 2010.  The decreases were the result of a strategic reduction in securitized funding.  

Capital Adequacy and Liquidity

Shareholders' equity at March 31, 2011 totaled $945.4 million, a decrease of $66.3 million or 6.6% from December 31, 2010 and a decrease of $299.0 million or 24.0% from March 31, 2010.  The decreases were primarily the result of net losses incurred.

Citizens continues to maintain a strong capital position, and its regulatory capital ratios are above "well-capitalized" standards, as evidenced by the following key capital ratios.

Citizens maintains a strong liquidity position, with substantial on- and off-balance sheet liquidity sources and a stable funding base comprised of approximately 79% deposits, 9% long-term debt, 10% equity, and 2% short-term liabilities.  

Net Interest Margin and Net Interest Income

Net interest margin was 3.53% for the first quarter of 2011 compared with 3.42% for the fourth quarter of 2010 and 3.14% for the first quarter of 2010.  The increase in net interest margin over both prior periods was the result of declining deposit costs, reductions in high-cost funding, and wholesale funding repricing to lower fixed rates, partially offset by the effect of replacing declining loan balances with lower-yielding investment securities and money market investments and lower reinvestment rates in the loan and investment portfolios.  

Net interest income was $78.6 million for the first quarter of 2011, a decrease of $3.1 million or 3.8% from the fourth quarter of 2010, and a decrease of $2.6 million or 3.2% from the first quarter of 2010.  The decreases were the result of lower average earning assets, partially offset by the effects of the higher net interest margin.  

Credit Quality

The quality of Citizens' loan portfolio is impacted by numerous factors, including the economic environment in the markets in which Citizens operates.  Citizens carefully monitors its loans in an effort to identify and mitigate any potential credit quality issues and losses in a proactive manner.  Citizens performs quarterly reviews of the non-watch commercial credit portfolio focusing on industry segments and asset classes that have or may be expected to experience stress due to economic conditions.  This process seeks to validate the credit's risk rating, underwriting structure and exposure management under current and stressed economic scenarios while strengthening these relationships and improving communication with these clients.  

The following tables represent four qualitative aspects of the loan portfolio that illustrate the overall level of quality and risk inherent in the loan portfolio.

The decreases in total delinquencies were primarily the result of continued emphasis on proactively managing and resolving delinquent commercial and consumer loans.  This marks the first time since December 2006 that 30-89 day past due loans have been below 1% of total portfolio loan balances.  

As part of its overall credit underwriting and review process and loss mitigation strategy, Citizens carefully monitors commercial credits that are current in terms of principal and interest payments but may deteriorate in quality.  Commercial relationship officers monitor their clients' financial condition and initiate changes in loan ratings based on their findings.  Loans that have migrated within the loan rating system to a level that requires increased oversight are considered watchlist loans (generally consistent with the regulatory definition of special mention, substandard, and doubtful loans) and include loans that are accruing or nonperforming (included in the other tables in this section).  Citizens utilizes the watchlist process as a proactive credit risk management practice to help mitigate the migration of commercial loans to nonperforming status and potential loss.  Once a loan is placed on the watchlist, it is reviewed quarterly by the chief credit officer, senior credit officers, senior market managers, and commercial relationship officers to assess cash flows, collateral valuations, guarantor liquidity, and other pertinent trends.  During these meetings, action plans are implemented or reviewed to address emerging problem loans or to remove loans from the portfolio.  Additionally, loans viewed as substandard or doubtful are transferred to Citizens' special loans or small business workout groups and are subjected to more intensive monitoring and workout activity.  Watchlist loans that are in nonperforming status are included in the nonperforming assets table below.

Watchlist credits declined $305.4 million from December 31, 2010 and $622.4 million from March 31, 2010 to $756.6 million at March 31, 2011, the lowest level since December 2006.  The decrease was primarily due to the accelerated problem asset resolution initiatives along with a decrease in the level of new inflows.

Nonperforming assets decreased from December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010, primarily due to the accelerated problem asset resolution initiatives.  In addition, nonperforming commercial inflows dropped to $29.5 million, the lowest level since December 2006.  The nonperforming commercial loan outflows were $128.5 million in the first quarter of 2011, primarily due to a combination of individual workouts and a bulk sale.  In addition, the decrease in nonperforming held for sale assets from the first quarter of 2010 was primarily the result of the movement of certain residential nonperforming loans to held for sale in the first quarter of 2010, that were subsequently sold in the second quarter of 2010.  This marks the sixth consecutive quarter of declines in nonperforming loans, as well as the first time since September 2008 that nonperforming loans as a percent of total portfolio loans have been below 3%.

Net charge-offs in the first quarter of 2011 were essentially unchanged from the fourth quarter of 2010.  The increase in net charge-offs compared to the first quarter of 2010 was primarily the result of the resolution of certain problem assets through both bulk sale and individual workout efforts.

(1)

The allocation of the allowance for loan losses in the above table is based upon ranges of estimates and is not intended to imply either limitations on the usage of the allowance or precision of the specific amounts.  Citizens does not view the allowance for loan losses as being divisible among the various categories of loans.  The entire allowance is available to absorb any future losses without regard to the category or categories in which the charged-off loans are classified.

(2)

Related NPL amounts in risk allocated allowances include restructured loans and still accruing and loans 90+ days past due and still accruing but classified as nonperforming.

The allowance for loan losses was $224.1 million or 165.6% of nonperforming portfolio loans at March 31, 2011, compared with $296.0 million or 134.4% at December 31, 2010 and $322.4 million or 77.9% at March 31, 2010.  The decreases in amounts were primarily the result of an overall decrease in loan balances, an improvement in risk mix of the commercial portfolio, and the continuing stability in both portfolio and economic trends, as well as lower reserves identified for specific commercial loans.  In addition, the $29.5 million of incremental risk allocated reserves established at December 31, 2010 to incorporate the impact of Citizens' initiatives to resolve problem assets has been eliminated, as the resolution initiatives were substantially completed during the first quarter of 2011.

The allowance as a percentage of nonperforming loans at March 31, 2011 increased from December 31, 2010 and March 31, 2010 primarily as a result of the allowance for loan losses declining at a slower pace than the decline in nonperforming loans.  While nonperforming loans declined over both periods, other offsetting factors that affect the risk allocated allowance such as historical loss experience, the continued depressed values in the real estate market, and other credit metrics result in a higher proportionate allowance.

After determining what Citizens believes is an appropriate allowance for loan losses based on the risk in the portfolio, the provision for loan losses is calculated as a result of the net effect of the quarterly change in the allowance for loan losses and the quarterly net charge-offs.  The provision for loan losses was $88.7 million in the first quarter of 2011, compared with $131.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2010 and $101.4 million in the first quarter of 2010.  The decreases in the provision were primarily due to the decline in the required allowance for loan losses as a result of the previously mentioned improvements in credit quality.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2011 was $23.1 million, a decrease of $0.9 million or 3.7% from the fourth quarter of 2010 and an increase of $0.8 million or 3.3% over the first quarter of 2010.  The change from the fourth quarter of 2010 was due to a reduction in income from swap terminations, offset by better execution on loans held for sale. The increase from the first quarter of 2010 was due largely to better execution on loans held for sale.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2011 was $81.7 million, an increase of $4.4 million or 5.7% from the fourth quarter of 2010 and an increase of $3.6 million or 4.5% from the first quarter of 2010.  The increases in noninterest expense over both prior periods were primarily the result of increased valuation writedowns and losses incurred as a result of the increase in property dispositions in the first quarter of 2011.  This was partially offset by a net decline in most other noninterest expense categories as a result of various expense management initiatives implemented throughout the company.

Conference Call

Citizens' senior management will review the quarter's results in a conference call at 10:00 a.m. ET on Friday, April 29, 2011.  A live audio webcast is available on Citizens' investor relations page at www.citizensbanking.com or by calling (800) 862-9098 (conference ID: Citizens Republic).  To participate in the conference call, please connect approximately 10 minutes prior to the scheduled conference time.

The call will be archived for 90 days at www.citizensbanking.com.  In addition, a digital recording will be available approximately two hours after the completion of the conference call until May 6, 2011.  To listen to the replay, please dial (800) 723-0394.

Discontinued Operations

As a result of the sale of Citizens' wholly-owned subsidiary, F&M, during the second quarter of 2010, the financial condition and operating results for this subsidiary have been segregated from the financial condition and operating results of Citizens' continuing operations throughout this release and, as such, are presented as a discontinued operation.  While all prior periods have been revised retrospectively to align with this treatment, these changes do not affect Citizens' reported consolidated financial condition or net income for any of the prior periods.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), this release includes non-GAAP financial measures such as tangible equity to tangible assets ratio, tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio, Tier 1 common equity ratio, pre-tax pre-provision profit, net interest margin, and the efficiency ratio.  Citizens believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide additional information that is useful to investors in understanding the underlying performance of Citizens, its business, and performance trends and such measures help facilitate performance comparisons with others in the banking industry.  Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited.  Readers should be aware of these limitations and should be cautious as to their use of such measures.  To mitigate these limitations, Citizens has procedures in place to ensure that these measures are calculated using the appropriate GAAP or regulatory components in their entirety and to ensure that Citizens' performance is properly reflected to facilitate consistent period-to-period comparisons.  Although Citizens believes the above non-GAAP financial measures disclosed in this release enhance investors' understanding of its business and performance, these non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation, or as a substitute for GAAP basis financial measures.

Citizens believes the exclusion of goodwill and other intangible assets to create "tangible assets" and "tangible equity" facilitates the comparison of results for ongoing business operations.  Citizens' management internally assesses the company's performance based, in part, on these non-GAAP financial measures.  The tangible common equity ratio and Tier 1 common equity ratio have become a focus of some investors and management believes that these ratios may assist investors in analyzing Citizens' capital position absent the effects of intangible assets and preferred stock.  Because tangible common equity and Tier 1 common equity are not formally defined by GAAP or codified in the federal banking regulations, these measures are considered to be non-GAAP financial measures.  Because analysts and banking regulators may assess Citizens' capital adequacy using tangible common equity and Tier 1 common equity, Citizens believes that it is useful to provide investors the ability to assess its capital adequacy on the same bases.  Tier 1 common equity is often expressed as a percentage of net risk-weighted assets.  Under the risk-based capital framework, a bank's balance sheet assets and credit equivalent amounts of off-balance sheet items are assigned to one of four broad risk categories.  The aggregated dollar amount in each category is then multiplied by the risk weight assigned to that category.  The resulting weighted values from each of the four categories are added together and this sum is the risk-weighted assets total that, as adjusted, comprises the denominator of certain risk-based capital ratios.  Tier 1 capital is then divided by this denominator (net risk-weighted assets) to determine the Tier 1 capital ratio.  Adjustments are made to Tier 1 capital to arrive at Tier 1 common equity as shown in the Non-GAAP Reconciliation Table later in this release.  The amounts disclosed as net risk-weighted assets are calculated consistent with banking regulatory requirements.

Pre-Tax Pre-Provision Profit (non-GAAP financial measure)

Pre-tax pre-provision profit ("PTPP"), as defined by Citizens' management represents total revenue (total net interest income and noninterest income) excluding any securities gains/losses, fair-value adjustments on loans held for sale, interest rate swaps, and bank owned life insurance, less noninterest expense excluding any goodwill impairment charges, credit writedowns, fair-value adjustments and special assessments.  While certain of these items are an integral part of Citizens' banking operations, in each case, the excluded items are items that management believes are particularly impacted by economic stress or significant changes in the credit cycle and are therefore likely to make it more difficult to understand our underlying performance trends and the ability of our banking operations to generate revenue.  Net interest income, noninterest income and noninterest expense are all calculated in accordance with GAAP and are presented in the consolidated statement of operations.  While noninterest income and noninterest expense are adjusted for the specific items listed above in the calculation of PTPP, these adjustments represent the excluded items in their entirety for each period presented to better facilitate period to period comparisons.

Viewed together with Citizens' GAAP results, PTPP provides management, investors and others with a useful metric to evaluate and better understand trends in Citizens' period-to-period earnings power and ability to generate capital to cover credit losses, in each case exclusive of the effects of the current and recent economic stress and the credit cycle.  As recent results for the banking industry demonstrate, loan charge-offs, related credit provision, and credit writedowns can vary significantly from period to period, making a measure that helps isolate the impact of credit costs on profitability all the more important to investors.  The "Credit Quality" section of this release isolates the challenges and issues related to the credit quality of Citizens' loan portfolio and their impact on Citizens' earnings as reflected in the provision for loan losses.  

A portion of the compensation awarded to Citizens' Named Executive Officers and certain other management employees for their performance in 2010 and 2011 is measured against a PTPP performance target (as defined above) as Citizens believes that PTPP is a key measurement that helps keep revenue generation as a focus for its business and a particularly valuable measure during challenging credit cycles.  Based on 2010 full year results, the total cash compensation award linked to PTPP was $1.1 million.  Additionally, during 2010, approximately 1,129,000 shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units were granted which have a two-year vesting period based partially on PTPP results and partially on total provision expense.  The grants are designed so that a portion of the compensation is based on provision expense while the remainder does not depend on management's performance with regard to managing loan losses, securities impairments, and other asset impairments.  The total potential cash compensation award linked to PTPP for 2011 is $0.9 million.

Like all non-GAAP metrics, PTPP's usefulness is inherently limited.  Because Citizens' calculation of PTPP may differ from the calculation of similar measures used by other bank holding companies, PTPP should be used to determine and evaluate period to period trends in Citizens' performance and in comparison to Citizens' loan charge-offs, related credit provision, and credit writedowns, rather than in comparison to non-GAAP metrics used by other companies.  In addition, investors should bear in mind that income tax expense (benefit), the provision for loan losses, and the other items excluded from revenues and expenses in the PTPP calculation are recurring and integral expenses to Citizens' banking operations, and that these expenses will still accrue under GAAP, thereby reducing GAAP earnings and, ultimately, shareholders' equity.

Net Interest Margin and Efficiency Ratio (non-GAAP financial measures)

In accordance with industry standards, certain designated net interest income amounts are presented on a taxable equivalent basis, including the calculation of net interest margin and the efficiency ratio.  Citizens believes the presentation of net interest margin on a taxable equivalent basis using a 35% effective tax rate allows comparability of net interest margin with industry peers by eliminating the effect of the differences in portfolios attributable to the proportion represented by both taxable and tax-exempt investments.  See the Selected Quarterly Information Table, the Non-GAAP Reconciliation Table, and the Average Balances, Yields and Rates Table later in this release for additional information.
