  • Net income for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $32.5 million, or $0.85 per diluted share, a 4% increase compared to $31.1 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, for 2014.  Excluding the impact of $1.6 million in net non-routine transactions, described below, net income for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $33.8 million, an 8% increase compared to 2014, or $0.88 per diluted share.  For 2015, return on average assets was 0.89%, the return on average common equity was 8.28%, and the return on average tangible common equity was 11.58%.
  • The $1.6 million in net non-routine transactions in 2015 included $1.2 million of expenses related to the Pascack Bancorp, Inc. (“Pascack Bancorp”) merger, $2.4 million of prepayment fees from the repayment of $20.0 million of 4.44% long-term debt, $1.8 million of realized gain from the redemption of $10.0 million of trust preferred debt, and $173 thousand in related net realized gains on the sale of securities.  Merger expenses primarily include the cost of legal, accounting, and investment banking services as well as technology costs.
  • During the fourth quarter of 2015, Pascack Bancorp shareholders approved the merger of Pascack Bancorp with and into the Company.  This merger, along with the merger of Pascack Community Bank with and into Lakeland Bank, was consummated on January 7, 2016, adding approximately $390 million in total assets to the Company.  The Company also acquired eight branches in the merger.  The Company intends to close a total of three branches in overlapping areas, which will result in a net total of 53 branches for Lakeland Bank.
  • At December 31, 2015, loans totaled $2.97 billion, an increase of $114.2 million, or 4%, from September 30, 2015, and $312.3 million, or 12%, compared to December 31, 2014.  The annual increase was primarily due to an increase in commercial real estate loans of $285.9 million, or 18%, and commercial, industrial and other loans of $68.8 million, or 29%. 
  • Total deposits were $3.0 billion at December 31, 2015, an increase of $75.9 million, or 3%, from September 30, 2015, and $204.8 million, or 7%, since December 31, 2014.  Noninterest bearing demand deposits, which totaled $693.7 million at December 31, 2015, increased by $47.7 million, or 7%, from December 31, 2014.  Noninterest bearing demand deposits represented 23% of total deposits at December 31, 2015.

Thomas J. Shara, Lakeland Bancorp’s President and CEO said, “We continued to successfully execute on our strategic growth initiatives during 2015.  By adding new lending teams and establishing two Loan Production Offices, the Bank expanded geographically within New Jersey while entering New York State for the first time.  This helped to contribute to our 19% combined growth in commercial real estate and C&I loans.  In addition, we expanded our presence in the Bergen and Essex County markets with the acquisition of Pascack Bancorp, increasing Lakeland’s total assets to $4.2 billion.”

Earnings

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $30.1 million, as compared to $28.9 million for the same period in 2014, an increase of 4%.  For the year ended December 31, 2015, net interest income was $116.6 million compared to $113.6 million for 2014, a 3% increase.  

In the fourth quarter of 2015, annualized net interest margin (“NIM”) was 3.43%, which was one basis point higher than the third quarter.  This 3.43% included four basis points from prepayment fees and net interest recoveries that did not occur in the third quarter.  For 2015, NIM was 3.47%, compared to 3.64% for 2014.  This decrease in NIM was due primarily to a decline in the yield on commercial loans as they were originated and refinanced at lower rates in 2015.    

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income totaled $4.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2015, a 7% increase when compared to $4.5 million for the same period in 2014.  Noninterest income totaled $21.2 million for 2015, compared to $17.7 million for 2014.  Excluding the $1.8 million gain on debt extinguishment and $173 thousand net gain on sale of securities related to debt prepayments, total noninterest income totaling $19.2 million was $1.4 million greater than the same period in 2014.  The primary differences between 2015 and 2014 were $1.1 million in additional gains on the sale of loans, $0.6 million in death benefits as well as additional accrued income from bank owned life insurance policies, and $0.4 million in swap fee income received in 2015.  These increases were partially offset by $0.5 million in lower demand deposit account fees and overdraft charges in 2015.

Noninterest Expense  

Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2015 was $22.1 million compared to $20.2 million for the same period in 2014.  Excluding the $822 thousand in merger related expenses, noninterest expense totaling $21.3 million was $1.1 million greater than the same period in 2014.  The provision for unfunded lending commitments increased $0.6 million from the fourth quarter of 2014 to the fourth quarter of 2015 due to an increase in unfunded commercial mortgage commitments.  Salary and benefit expenses increased $0.5 million, due primarily to the two new Loan Production Offices (“LPOs”) as well as year-over-year incremental salary increases, pension expenses, increasing benefit costs and benefit increases.  The fourth quarter 2015 efficiency ratio was 58.70%, as compared to 59.87% for the fourth quarter of 2014.

Noninterest expense for 2015 was $87.2 million, compared to $79.1 million for 2014.  Excluding the $1.2 million in merger related expenses and $2.4 million of debt prepayment fees, noninterest expense totaling $83.7 million was $4.5 million greater than the same period in 2014.  Additional salary and benefit expenses of $3.5 million comprised most of this increase, due primarily to the two new LPOs as well as year-over-year incremental salary increases, pension expenses, increasing benefit costs and benefit increases.  The provision for unfunded lending commitments increased $0.9 million due to an increase in unfunded commercial mortgage commitments. 

Financial Condition

At December 31, 2015, total assets were $3.87 billion, an increase of $331.2 million, or 9%, from December 31, 2014.  Included in this increase was a $312.3 million, or 12%, increase in total loans.  Total liabilities increased $310.1 million, primarily because of a $204.8 million increase in total deposits and $69.4 million increase in other borrowings from the addition of Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings.  Stockholders’ equity increased $21.1 million during 2015, primarily because of the $19.9 million increase in retained earnings from 2015 net income less quarterly dividends.

Asset Quality

At December 31, 2015, non-performing assets totaled $23.7 million (0.61% of total assets) compared to $21.7 million (0.61% of total assets) at December 31, 2014.  The allowance for loan and lease losses totaled $30.9 million at December 31, 2015 and represented 1.04% of total loans and leases.  In the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company had net charge-offs totaling $0.1 million, compared to $1.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2014.  For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company had net charge-offs of $1.8 million (0.06% of average loans), as compared to $5.0 million (0.19% of average loans) for 2014.  The Company had no provision for loan and lease losses in the fourth quarter of 2015, compared to $1.6 million for the same period in 2014, $1.9 million for 2015, and $5.9 million for 2014.

Capital

At December 31, 2015, stockholders' equity was $400.5 million; and, book value per common share was $10.57.  Tangible book value per common share was $7.62 at December 31, 2015, an increase of 8% compared to December 31, 2014.  As of December 31, 2015, the Company’s leverage ratio was 8.70%.  Tier 1 and total risk based capital ratios were 10.53% and 11.61%, respectively.  The common equity tier 1 capital ratio was 9.54% and the tangible common equity ratio was 7.69%.  The regulatory capital ratios exceed those necessary to be considered a well-capitalized institution under Federal guidelines.

Forward-Looking Statements

The information disclosed in this document includes various forward-looking statements (with respect to corporate objectives, trends, and other financial and business matters) that are made in reliance upon the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  The words “anticipates”, “projects”, “intends”, “estimates”, “expects”, “believes”, “plans”, “may”, “will”, “should”, “could”, and other similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements.  Lakeland cautions that these forward-looking statements are necessarily speculative and speak only as of the date made, and are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, all of which may change over time.  Actual results could differ materially from such forward-looking statements.  The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially and adversely from such forward-looking statements: changes in the financial services industry and the U.S. and global capital markets, changes in economic conditions nationally, regionally and in the Company’s markets, the nature and timing of actions of the Federal Reserve Board and other regulators, the nature and timing of legislation affecting the financial services industry, government intervention in the U.S. financial system, changes in levels of market interest rates, pricing pressures on loan and deposit products, credit risks of the Company’s lending and leasing activities, customers’ acceptance of the Company’s products and services, competition, and failure to realize anticipated efficiencies and synergies from the mergers of Pascack Bancorp into the Company and Pascack Community Bank into Lakeland Bank.  Any statements made by Lakeland that are not historical facts should be considered to be forward-looking statements.  Lakeland is not obligated to update and does not undertake to update any of its forward-looking statements made herein.

Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Reported amounts are presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").  The Company’s management believes that the supplemental non-GAAP information, which consists of measurements and ratios based on tangible equity and tangible assets, is utilized by regulators and market analysts to evaluate a company’s financial condition and therefore, such information is useful to investors.  These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for financial results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures which may be presented by other companies.

The Company also uses an efficiency ratio that is a non-GAAP financial measure.  The ratio that the Company uses excludes amortization of core deposit intangibles, expenses on other real estate owned and other repossessed assets, provision for unfunded lending commitments and, where applicable, long-term debt prepayment fees and merger related expenses.  Income for the non-GAAP ratio is increased by the favorable effect of tax-exempt income and excludes securities gains and losses and gain on debt extinguishment, which can vary from period to period.  The Company uses this ratio because it believes the ratio provides a better comparison of period to period operating performance.
