“It’s obvious all banks are not created equal. HOMB continues to try and separate ourselves from the pack. Financial strength is paramount, and I’m proud that Home BancShares is able to provide strength to our customers, especially during tough economic times. Despite the headwinds that arose out of West Texas, HOMB was able to rely on the patience and strength of the full franchise to deliver strong performance for the year,” said John Allison, Chairman.

“As a result of the discipline, patience and liquidity maintained by HOMB, we were able to profitably grow loans by $580 million in the fourth quarter, increasing loan yield to 6.23% from 5.63%, which is impressive by any standard in a rising rate environment,” said Tracy French, Centennial Bank President and Chief Executive Officer.

Operating Highlights

Net income for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022 was $115.7 million, or $0.57 earnings per share. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2022 was $305.3 million, or $1.57 earnings per share. When adjusting for merger-related and other non-fundamental items, net income and earnings per share on an as-adjusted basis (non-GAAP), were $107.5 million(1), or $0.53 per share(1), and $375.9 million(1), or $1.93 per share(1), for the three months and year ended December 31, 2022, respectively.

Our net interest margin was 4.21% for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022, compared to 4.05% for the three-month period ended September 30, 2022. The yield on loans was 6.23% and 5.63% for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, respectively, as average loans increased from $13.82 billion to $14.11 billion. Additionally, the rate on interest bearing deposits increased to 1.45% as of December 31, 2022, from 0.70% as of September 30, 2022, while average balances decreased from $13.31 billion to $12.85 billion.

During the fourth quarter of 2022, there was $871,000 of event interest income compared to event interest income of $943,000 for the third quarter of 2022.

Purchase accounting accretion on acquired loans was $3.5 million and $4.6 million and average purchase accounting loan discounts were $38.6 million and $42.1 million for the three-month periods ended December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, respectively. The reduction in accretion income lowered the net interest margin by two basis points for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022.

Net interest income on a fully taxable equivalent basis was $217.7 million for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022, and $215.5 million for the three-month period ended September 30, 2022. This increase in net interest income for the three-month period ended December 31, 2022, was the result of a $29.5 million increase in interest income, partially offset by a $27.4 million increase in interest expense. The $29.5 million increase in interest income was primarily the result of a $25.5 million increase in loan interest income and a $4.6 million increase in investment income. The increase in interest income is a result of the rising interest rate environment as well as loan growth during the quarter. The $27.4 million increase in interest expense was due to a $23.7 million increase in interest expense on deposits and a $3.5 million increase in interest expense on FHLB borrowed funds. The increase in interest expense on deposits and FHLB borrowed funds is a result of the rising interest rate environment as well as an increase in FHLB borrowed funds during the quarter.

The Company reported $56.7 million of non-interest income for the fourth quarter of 2022. The most important components of fourth quarter non-interest income were $23.2 million from other income, $10.4 million from other service charges and fees, $10.1 million from service charges on deposit accounts, $4.0 million from trust fees, $3.6 million in mortgage lending income, $2.8 million from dividends from FHLB, FRB, FNBB and other, a $1.1 million increase in cash value of life insurance, a $1.0 million loss from the fair value adjustment for marketable securities, and $453,000 from insurance commissions. The $23.2 million in other income includes $15.0 million income from the settlement of a lawsuit brought by the Company.

Non-interest expense for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $118.9 million. The most important components of the fourth quarter non-interest expense were $64.2 million from salaries and employee benefits, $30.7 million in other operating expense, $14.9 million in occupancy and equipment expenses and $9.1 million in data processing expenses. Other operating expense includes $5.0 million in legal expense from a lawsuit brought by the Company. There were no merger and acquisition expenses during the fourth quarter of 2022. For the fourth quarter of 2022, our efficiency ratio was 42.44%; and, our efficiency ratio, as adjusted (non-GAAP), was 43.07%(1).

Stockholders’ equity was $3.53 billion at December 31, 2022, compared to $3.46 billion at September 30, 2022, an increase of approximately $66.3 million. The increase in stockholders’ equity is primarily associated with the $82.0 million increase in retained earnings and the $2.0 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss, which were partially offset by $20.0 million in stock repurchases. Book value per common share was $17.33 at December 31, 2022, compared to $16.94 at September 30, 2022. Tangible book value per common share (non-GAAP) was $10.17(1) at December 31, 2022, compared to $9.82(1) at September 30, 2022.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Company’s management uses these non-GAAP financial measures--including net income (earnings), as adjusted; pre-tax, pre-provision, net income (PPNR); PPNR, as adjusted; pre-tax net income, as adjusted, to total revenue (net); pre-tax, pre-provision, profit percentage; pre-tax, pre-provision, profit percentage, as adjusted; diluted earnings per common share, as adjusted; return on average assets, as adjusted; return on average assets excluding intangible amortization; return on average assets, as adjusted, excluding intangible amortization; return on average common equity, as adjusted; return on average tangible common equity; return on average tangible common equity, as adjusted; return on average tangible common equity excluding intangible amortization; return on average tangible common equity, as adjusted, excluding intangible amortization; efficiency ratio, as adjusted; tangible book value per common share and tangible common equity to tangible assets--to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance. These measures typically adjust GAAP performance measures to include the tax benefit associated with revenue items that are tax-exempt, as well as adjust income available to common shareholders for certain significant items or transactions that management believes are not indicative of the Company’s primary business operating results. Since the presentation of these GAAP performance measures and their impact differ between companies, management believes presentations of these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the operating results of the Company’s business. These non-GAAP disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in the tables of this release.
