Stellar Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company” or “Stellar”) (NYSE: STEL) today reported net income of $29.8 million, or diluted earnings per share of $0.56, for the second quarter of 2024 compared to net income of $26.1 million, or diluted earnings per share of $0.49, for the first quarter of 2024.
“We are pleased to announce our second quarter 2024 results,” said Robert R. Franklin, Jr., Stellar’s Chief Executive Officer. “Our disciplined focus on capital, credit and liquidity gives us strength and optionality as we move into the back half of the year. Although many anticipate lower interest rates in September, we are prepared if that does not come to pass,” said Mr. Franklin. “Stellar Bank is well-positioned for either outcome.”
“In addition to building capital, we have reduced our commercial real estate exposure and are pursuing a more balanced approach to our lending through new additions to our team to help us build our commercial and industrial portfolio. Our credit quality remains steady as the economy in our markets remains solid. We operate in some of, if not the best, markets in the country and they have shown resilience throughout this tightening cycle,” Mr. Franklin continued.
“Our focus on capital, credit and liquidity will not change. We will continue to monitor effects of higher interest rates and the contentious presidential election on our markets. We believe that building and maintaining a strong balance sheet, positions us to take advantage of opportunities that arise from this economic cycle. Our focus remains on building long-term shareholder value as we embark on the second half of 2024 and the future is bright,” concluded Mr. Franklin.

Second Quarter 2024 Results
Net interest income in the second quarter of 2024 decreased $708 thousand, or 0.7%, to $101.4 million from $102.1 million for the first quarter of 2024. The net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis decreased 2 basis points to 4.24% for the second quarter of 2024 from 4.26% for the first quarter of 2024. The decrease in the net interest margin from the prior quarter was primarily due to the impact of increased interest rates on our cost of funding only partially offset by increased income on interest earning assets. Net interest income for the second quarter of 2024 benefited from $10.1 million of income from purchase accounting adjustments compared to $8.6 million in the first quarter of 2024. Excluding purchase accounting adjustments, net interest income (tax equivalent) for the second quarter 2024 would have been $91.4 million(1) and the tax equivalent net interest margin would have been 3.82%(1).
Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2024 was $5.4 million, a decrease of $880 thousand, or 14.0%, compared to $6.3 million for the first quarter of 2024. Noninterest income decreased in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2024 primarily due to a decrease in gains on sales of assets in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2024.
Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2024 decreased $194 thousand, or 0.3%, to $71.2 million compared to $71.4 million for the first quarter of 2024. The decrease in noninterest expense in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2024 was primarily due to a $2.3 million decrease in salaries and employee benefits and a $1.0 million decrease in professional fees partially offset by other expenses.
The efficiency ratio was 66.63% for the second quarter of 2024 compared to 66.18% for the first quarter of 2024. Annualized returns on average assets, average equity and average tangible equity were 1.13%, 7.78% and 12.82%(1) for the second quarter of 2024, respectively, compared to 0.98%, 6.88% and 11.47%(1), respectively, for the first quarter of 2024.
Financial Condition
Total loans at June 30, 2024 decreased $194.2 million to $7.71 billion compared to $7.91 billion at March 31, 2024. At June 30, 2024, the remaining balance of the purchase accounting adjustments on loans was $87.4 million.
Total deposits at June 30, 2024 decreased $69.4 million to $8.73 billion compared to $8.79 billion at March 31, 2024, due to decreases in certificates and other time deposits, noninterest-bearing deposits and interest-bearing demand deposits, partially offset by increases in money market and savings deposits. Shifts in the deposit mix were primarily driven by the current interest rate environment and an intensely competitive market for deposits. Estimated uninsured deposits totaled $4.79 billion and estimated uninsured deposits net of collateralized deposits of $1.01 billion were $3.78 billion, or 43.3%, of total deposits at June 30, 2024.
Total assets at June 30, 2024 were $10.72 billion, a decrease of $5.6 million, compared to $10.73 billion at March 31, 2024.
Asset Quality
Nonperforming assets totaled $53.4 million, or 0.50% of total assets, at June 30, 2024, compared to $57.1 million, or 0.53% of total assets, at March 31, 2024. The allowance for credit losses on loans as a percentage of total loans was 1.23% at June 30, 2024 and 1.22% at March 31, 2024.
The second quarter of 2024 included a reversal of provision for credit losses expenses of $1.9 million compared to a $4.1 million provision for credit losses recorded during the first quarter of 2024. Net charge-offs for the second quarter of 2024 were $1 thousand, or 0.00% (annualized) of average loans, compared to net charge-offs of $714 thousand, or 0.04% (annualized) of average loans, for the first quarter of 2024.

Stellar Bancorp, Inc. GAAP Reconciliation and Management’s Explanation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures (Unaudited)
Stellar’s management uses certain non-GAAP (generally accepted accounting principles) financial measures to evaluate its performance. Stellar believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding its performance and that management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing Stellar’s performance and when planning, forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future periods. Specifically, Stellar reviews pre-tax, pre-provision income, pre-tax pre-provision ROAA, tangible book value per share, return on average tangible equity, tangible equity to tangible assets and net interest margin (tax equivalent) excluding PAA for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Stellar has included in this earnings release information relating to these non-GAAP financial measures for the applicable periods presented. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which Stellar calculates the non-GAAP financial measures may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.
