Bankwell Financial Group Reports First Quarter Net Income of $4.6 Million or $0.59 Per Share, Representing 24% Year over Year Growth and Declares Second Quarter Dividend
Bankwell Financial Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:BWFG) reported GAAP net income of
$4.6 million or $0.59 per share for the first quarter of 2018, versus
$3.7 million or $0.48 per share for the same period in 2017.
The Company's Board of Directors declared a $0.12 per share cash
dividend, payable May 25, 2018 to shareholders of record on May 15, 2018.
Notes Bankwell Financial Group President and CEO, Christopher R. Gruseke:
"We are happy to announce year over year earnings growth of 24% for the
first quarter of 2018. Acknowledging that the lower corporate tax rate
played a significant role, Bankwell nevertheless achieved solid organic
growth in the face of a more competitive lending environment and several
non-recurring charges."
"The heightened volatility experienced across the capital markets during
the first quarter acted as a headwind against the lending environment in
general. Further, while too many banking institutions have seemingly
demonstrated how recent tax cuts will impact their business models,
Bankwell chose not to participate in a race to the bottom in lending
spreads. We will continue our disciplined practice toward lending rates
as we have never chosen to compete on price. Thus far, our pipeline
suggests improved volume at more favorable spreads for the second
quarter."
"We note that our efficiency ratio took an uncharacteristic increase
this quarter versus Q1'17. Several factors contributed to this increase:
1) non-recurring expenses, such as a $363 thousand increase in
professional fees, as well as approximately $300 thousand in loan
origination costs, which could not be deferred due to lower loan volume,
2) forgone interest income on approximately $14 million in new
non-performing loans (see below), and 3) planned investment in people
and infrastructure, primarily geared toward deposit gathering
activities."
"The first quarter also saw an addition of approximately $14 million in
non-performing loans due to two recently impaired commercial loans with
balances of approximately $10 million and $4 million, respectively. We
are in the process of evaluating the various pathways to repayment on
these credits and will provide an update in our next quarterly release."
"Finally, the next quarter will also see three new Bankwell branches
open within our footprint in Fairfield County, CT. We are excited to
bring the Bankwell brand to these towns and expect those new customers
will agree with their neighboring communities who have just voted
Bankwell the "#1 Bank in Fairfield County for Customer Service."

Earnings
Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 was $4.6 million, an
increase of 24% compared to the quarter ended March 31, 2017. Revenues
(net interest income plus non-interest income) for the quarter ended
March 31, 2018 were $15.0 million, an increase of 6% compared to the
quarter ended March 31, 2017. Net interest income for the quarter ended
March 31, 2018 was $13.7 million, an increase of 6% compared to the
quarter ended March 31, 2017. The increase in net income was driven by
an increase in interest and fees on loans and from a reduction in the
corporate tax rate from 35% to 21% resulting from 2017 tax reform. The
increase in interest and fees on loans was a result of commercial real
estate and commercial business loan growth as compared to March 31, 2017.
Basic and diluted earnings per share were each $0.59 for the quarter
ended March 31, 2018 compared to $0.49 and $0.48, respectively, for the
quarter ended March 31, 2017.
The Company's efficiency ratio for the quarters ended March 31, 2018 and
March 31, 2017 were 62.0% and 58.3%, respectively. The increase in the
efficiency ratio was driven by an increase in noninterest expense. The
temporary increase in noninterest expense reflected a nonrecurring
increase in audit related expenses and a ramp up of costs associated
with the opening of three new branch locations, which are expected to
open in the second quarter of 2018.
Noninterest Income and Expense
Noninterest income increased $67 thousand or 5% to $1.3 million for the
three months ended March 31, 2018 compared to the three months ended
March 31, 2017. The increase in noninterest income was primarily driven
by an increase in gains and fees from the sales of loans and a net gain
on the sale of available for sale securities. Gain and fees from the
sale of loans totaled $370 thousand for the quarter ended March 31, 2018
compared to $324 thousand for the same period in 2017, an increase of
$46 thousand. The net gain on the sale of available for sale securities
totaled $222 thousand for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 compared to a
net gain on the sale of available for sale securities of $165 thousand
for the same period in 2017.
Noninterest expense increased $969 thousand or 12% for the three months
ended March 31, 2018 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2017.
The increase was primarily driven by an increase in salaries and
employee benefits and an increase in professional services. Salaries and
employee benefits totaled $5.0 million for the quarter ended March 31,
2018 compared to $3.9 million for the same period in 2017, an increase
of $1.1 million. The increase in salaries and employee benefits was
primarily driven by an increase in full time equivalent employees and a
reduction in deferred loan origination costs resulting from lower loan
volume. The increase in full time equivalent employees is in line with
year over year business growth and to a lesser degree, buildup of
staffing for the three new branch locations expected to open in the
second quarter of 2018. Full time equivalent employees totaled 144 at
March 31, 2018 compared to 127 at March 31, 2017. Professional services
totaled $775 thousand for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 compared to
$412 thousand for the same period in 2017, an increase of $363 thousand.
The increase in professional services was primarily driven by increases
in audit related expenses.
Financial Condition
Assets totaled $1.83 billion at March 31, 2018, an annualized increase
of 8% compared to assets of $1.80 billion at December 31, 2017. Total
gross loans were $1.6 billion at March 31, 2018, an increase of $13.4
million compared to December 31, 2017, driven by disciplined growth in
commercial real estate loans. Deposits increased to $1.43 billion, an
annualized increase of 8% over December 31, 2017.
Asset Quality
Non-performing assets as a percentage of total assets was 1.14% at March
31, 2018, up from 0.31% at December 31, 2017. The increase in
non-performing assets is primarily driven by two recently impaired
commercial real estate loans. The allowance for loan losses was $18.8
million, representing 1.21% of total loans and $18.9 million,
representing 1.23% of total loans at March 31, 2018 and December 31,
2017, respectively.
Capital
Shareholders' equity totaled $165.9 million as of March 31, 2018, an
increase of $4.9 million compared to December 31, 2017, primarily a
result of net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2018 of $4.6
million. As of March 31, 2018, the tangible common equity ratio and
tangible book value per share were 8.92% and $21.12, respectively.

This press release may contain certain forward-looking statements
about the Company. Forward-looking statements include statements
regarding anticipated future events and can be identified by the fact
that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They
often include words such as "believe," "expect," "anticipate,"
"estimate," and "intend" or future or conditional verbs such as "will,"
"would," "should," "could," or "may." Forward-looking statements, by
their nature, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Certain factors
that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected
results include increased competitive pressures, changes in the interest
rate environment, general economic conditions or conditions within the
securities markets, and legislative and regulatory changes that could
adversely affect the business in which the Company and its subsidiaries
are engaged.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to evaluating the Company's financial performance in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"),
management may evaluate certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as the
efficiency ratio. A computation and reconciliation of certain non-GAAP
financial measures used for these purposes is contained in the
accompanying Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures table. We
believe that providing certain non-GAAP financial measures provides
investors with information useful in understanding our financial
performance, our performance trends and financial position. For example,
the Company believes that the efficiency ratio is useful in the
assessment of financial performance, including non-interest expense
control. The Company believes that tangible common equity and tangible
book value per share is useful to evaluate the relative strength of the
Company's capital position. We utilize these measures for internal
planning and forecasting purposes. These non-GAAP financial measures
should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures and
results, and we strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated
financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single
financial measure.

* All metrics, as of December 31, 2017, measuring return were
significantly impacted by certain non-recurring items, including $3.3
million for a write-down of our deferred tax asset resulting from tax
reform, ($0.9) million for a change in loan reserve methodology, ($0.6)
million resulting from income recognized from servicing assets and $0.2
million resulting from charges due to reductions in workforce. Excluding
the non-recurring items, the company's return on average assets, return
on average stockholders' equity and return on average tangible common
equity would have been approximately 0.90%, 10.05% and 10.24% for the
quarter ended December 31, 2017.

(1) Efficiency ratio is defined as noninterest expense, less other
real estate owned expenses and amortization of intangible assets,
divided by our operating revenue, which is equal to net interest
income plus non-interest income excluding gains and losses on sales
of securities and gains and losses on other real estate owned. In
our judgment, the adjustments made to operating revenue allow
investors and analysts to better assess our operating expenses in
relation to our core operating revenue by removing the volatility
that is associated with certain one-time items and other discrete
items that are unrelated to our core business.
|
|
(2) Represents Bank ratios. Current period capital ratios are
preliminary subject to finalization of the FDIC Call Report.

(3) Excludes unvested restricted shares of 114,336, 75,186, and
98,176 as of March 31, 2018, December 31, 2017 and March 31, 2017,
