Second Quarter Financial Results
Net income for First Busey Corporation (“First Busey” or the “Company”) for the second quarter of 2022 was $29.8 million, or $0.53 per diluted common share, compared to $28.4 million, or $0.51 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2022, and $29.8 million, or $0.53 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2021. Adjusted net income1 for the second quarter of 2022 was $30.1 million, or $0.54 per diluted common share, compared to $29.1 million, or $0.52 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2022, and $31.9 million, or $0.57 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2021. For the second quarter of 2022, annualized return on average assets and annualized return on average tangible common equity1 were 0.96% and 14.50%, respectively. Based on adjusted net income1, annualized return on average assets was 0.97% and annualized return on average tangible common equity1 was 14.62% for the second quarter of 2022.

Pre-provision net revenue1 for the second quarter of 2022 was $39.6 million, compared to $36.1 million for the first quarter of 2022 and $34.0 million for the second quarter of 2021. Adjusted pre-provision net revenue1 for the second quarter of 2022 was $41.3 million, compared to $39.4 million for the first quarter of 2022 and $37.5 million for the second quarter of 2021. Pre-provision net revenue to average assets1 for the second quarter of 2022 was 1.27%, compared to 1.16% for the first quarter of 2022, and 1.20% for the second quarter of 2021. Adjusted pre-provision net revenue to average assets1 for the second quarter of 2022 was 1.33%, compared to 1.26% for the first quarter of 2022 and 1.32% for the second quarter of 2021.

The Company experienced its fifth consecutive quarter of strong core loan1 growth. Core loan1 growth of $249.1 million in the second quarter of 2022 follows $127.1 million in the first quarter of 2022, and compares to $142.0 million in the second quarter of 2021. Over the last four quarters, the Company has generated $694.9 million in core loan1 growth, equating to a year-over-year growth rate of 10.2%.

The Company’s second quarter 2022 results include provision expense of $1.7 million for credit losses and a provision release of $0.3 million for unfunded commitments. The total allowance for credit losses was $88.8 million at June 30, 2022, representing 1.18% of both total portfolio loans outstanding and core loans1. The Company recorded net charge offs of $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2022. Second quarter results also include net security losses of $1.7 million, compared to losses of $0.6 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $0.9 million of gains in the second quarter of 2021. Losses in the second quarter of 2022 were primarily unrealized, related to equity securities market valuations.

Our fee-based businesses continue to add revenue diversification. In the second quarter of 2022, wealth management fees were $14.1 million, compared to $15.8 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $13.0 million in the second quarter of 2021, representing 8.7% year-over-year growth. The quarter-over-quarter decline in wealth management fees is primarily attributable to customary seasonality in farm management income as well as declines in market valuations. Consolidated revenue from payment technology solutions from FirsTech was $4.9 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $5.1 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $4.5 million in the second quarter of 2021, representing 7.9% year-over-year growth. Fees for customer services were $9.6 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $8.9 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $8.6 million in the second quarter of 2021, representing 11.3% year-over-year growth.

The Company views certain non-operating items, including acquisition-related and other restructuring charges, as adjustments to net income reported under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Non-operating pretax adjustments for the second quarter of 2022 included $0.2 million of expenses related to non-operating professional fees and $0.1 million of fixed asset impairment related to the 2021 Personal Banking Transformation Plan. The Company believes that non-GAAP measures—including pre-provision net revenue, adjusted pre-provision net revenue, pre-provision net revenue to average assets, adjusted pre-provision net revenue to average assets, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted return on average assets, return on average tangible common equity, adjusted return on average tangible common equity, adjusted net interest income, adjusted net interest margin, adjusted noninterest expense, adjusted core expense, efficiency ratio, adjusted efficiency ratio, adjusted core efficiency ratio, tangible book value per common share, tangible common equity, tangible common equity to tangible assets, core loans, core loans to portfolio loans, core deposits, core deposits to total deposits, and core loans to core deposits—facilitate the assessment of its financial results and peer comparability. A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures is included in tabular form at the end of this release.

Subordinated debt issuance
To further enhance the Company’s strong capital and liquidity positions, during the second quarter of 2022 First Busey completed a successful public offering of $100.0 million of 5.000% Fixed-To-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due in 2032. This issuance qualifies as Tier 2 Capital for regulatory purposes, while also significantly bolstering the cash reserves held at the holding company. Using proceeds obtained from this successful public offering, the Company anticipates redeeming, during the third quarter of 2022, $60.0 million of outstanding callable subordinated notes originally issued in 2017.

Community Banking
First Busey’s goal of being a strong community bank begins with outstanding associates. The Company is humbled to be named among the 2021 Best Banks to Work For by American Banker, the 2021 Best Places to Work in Money Management by Pensions and Investments, the 2022 Best Places to Work in Illinois by Daily Herald Business Ledger and the 2022 Best Companies to Work For in Florida by Florida Trend magazine.

As we enter the second half of 2022, we are cognizant of the evolving economic outlook and remain focused on protecting our fortress balance sheet. We are grateful for the opportunities to earn the business of our customers, based on the contributions of our talented associates and the continued support of our loyal shareholders.

Balance Sheet Growth

Our balance sheet remains a source of strength. Total assets were $12.36 billion at June 30, 2022, compared to $12.57 billion at March 31, 2022, and $12.42 billion at June 30, 2021. At June 30, 2022, portfolio loans were $7.50 billion, compared to $7.27 billion as of March 31, 2022, and $7.19 billion as of June 30, 2021. Amortized costs of Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loans of $7.6 million, $31.8 million, and $390.4 million are included in the June 30, 2022, March 31, 2022, and June 30, 2021, portfolio loan balances, respectively. During the second quarter of 2022, Busey Bank experienced another strong quarter of core loan1 growth of $249.1 million, consisting of growth in commercial balances3 of $151.3 million and growth in retail real estate and retail other balances of $97.8 million. Growth was principally driven by our Northern Illinois and Central Illinois regions. As has been our practice, we remain steadfast in our disciplined underwriting.

Average portfolio loans were $7.38 billion for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $7.16 billion for the first quarter of 2022 and $6.89 billion for the second quarter of 2021. The average balance of PPP loans for the second quarter of 2022 was $19.3 million, compared to $51.5 million for the first quarter of 2022 and $496.2 million for the second quarter of 2021. Average interest-earning assets for the second quarter of 2022 were $11.45 billion, compared to $11.70 billion for the first quarter of 2022, and $10.45 billion for the second quarter of 2021.

Total deposits were $10.40 billion at June 30, 2022, compared to $10.59 billion at March 31, 2022, and $10.34 billion at June 30, 2021. Fluctuations in deposit balances can be attributed to the retention of PPP loan funding in customer deposit accounts, the impacts of fiscal stimulus, inflation and related economic effects on our customers, as well as typical seasonality aspects within our portfolio, and other core deposit1 growth. The Company remains funded substantially through core deposits1 with significant market share in its primary markets. Core deposits1 accounted for 98.9% of total deposits as of June 30, 2022. Cost of deposits was 0.08% in the second quarter of 2022, holding steady with the first quarter of 2022. Excluding time deposits, the Company’s cost of deposits was 0.05% in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 0.01% from March 31, 2022.

During the second quarter of 2022, we redeemed $40.0 million of 3.75% senior notes which matured on May 25, 2022.

Net Interest Margin1 and Net Interest Income

Net interest margin1 for the second quarter of 2022 was 2.68%, compared to 2.45% for the first quarter of 2022 and 2.50% for the second quarter of 2021. Excluding purchase accretion, adjusted net interest margin1 was 2.66% for the second quarter of 2022, compared to 2.41% in the first quarter of 2022 and 2.43% in the second quarter of 2021. Net interest income was $75.9 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $70.1 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $64.5 million in the second quarter of 2021.

The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) raised rates during the first quarter of 2022, for the first time in three years, and again in both May and June 2022. Rising rates have a positive impact on net interest margin1, as assets, in particular commercial loans, reprice more quickly and to a greater extent than liabilities. Given the timing of the FOMC meetings in May and June, the full benefit of the associated movement in rates to our net interest margin will be largely realized in subsequent quarters. In general, net interest margins1 have been impacted over the last two years by PPP loans, significant growth in the Company’s liquidity position, and the issuance of debt. Factors contributing to the 23 basis point increase in net interest margin during the second quarter of 2022 include:

  • Loan growth and higher new volume and repricing rates which contributed +23 basis points
  • Increases in the cash and securities portfolio yield which contributed +7 basis points
  • Reduced volume of PPP loan forgiveness which contributed -3 basis points
  • Reduced recognition of purchase accounting accretion which contributed -2 basis points
  • Increase in borrowing costs contributed -2 basis points

Future FOMC rate decisions are expected to continue to be a net positive to net interest margin. Based on our most recent Asset Liability Management Committee (ALCO) model, a 100 basis point parallel rate shock is expected to increase net interest income by 4.3% over the subsequent twelve month period. Market competition for deposits has started to increase and deposits betas are likely to increase going forward, which is factored into our ALCO model. In the second quarter of 2022, our interest-bearing non-maturity deposit beta was 2.7%.

Asset Quality

Despite a small uptick in non-performing assets in the second quarter of 2022 over the first quarter of 2022, credit quality continues to be exceptionally strong. Loans 30-89 days past due increased to $5.2 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to $3.9 million as of both March 31, 2022, and June 30, 2021. Non-performing loans totaled $17.5 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to $12.7 million as of March 31, 2022, and $28.3 million as of June 30, 2021. The increase in non-performing loans in the second quarter of 2022 is largely attributable to a single borrower in the skilled nursing industry. Continued disciplined credit management resulted in non-performing loans as a percentage of portfolio loans of 0.23% at June 30, 2022, compared to 0.17% as of March 31, 2022, and 0.39% as of June 30, 2021. Excluding the amortized cost of PPP loans, non-performing loans as a percentage of portfolio loans was 0.23% at June 30, 2022, compared to 0.18% at March 31, 2022, and 0.42% at June 30, 2021. Non-performing assets were 0.15% of total assets at the end of the second quarter of 2022, compared to 0.13% at March 31, 2022 and 0.25% at June 30, 2021.

Net charge-offs totaled $1.1 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, compared to net recoveries of $0.6 million and net charge-offs of $1.0 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2022, and June 30, 2021, respectively. The increase in net charge-offs in the second quarter of 2022 was principally related to the aforementioned skilled nursing borrower relationship. The allowance as a percentage of portfolio loans was 1.18% at June 30, 2022, compared to 1.21% at March 31, 2022, and 1.33% at June 30, 2021. Excluding the amortized cost of PPP loans, the allowance as a percentage of portfolio loans was 1.18% at June 30, 2022, compared to 1.22% at March 31, 2022, and 1.40% at June 30, 2021. The allowance as a percentage of non-performing loans was 507.36% at June 30, 2022, compared to 695.41% at March 31, 2022, and 336.96% at June 30, 2021.

The Company maintains a well-diversified loan portfolio and, as a matter of policy and practice, limits concentration exposure in any particular loan segment.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income declined to $31.0 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $35.8 million for the first quarter of 2022 and $33.0 million for the second quarter of 2021. Excluding realized and unrealized securities gains and losses, non-interest income declined to $32.7 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared to $36.4 million for the first quarter of 2022, and reflected an increase from $32.1 million for the second quarter of 2021. Revenues from wealth management fees and payment technology solutions activities represented 61.3% of the Company’s noninterest income for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, providing a balance to spread-based revenue from traditional banking activities. On a combined basis, revenue from these two critical operating areas increased by 8.5% compared to the second quarter of 2021.

Wealth management fees were $14.1 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $15.8 million for the first quarter of 2022 and $13.0 million for the second quarter of 2021, an 8.7% increase from the comparable period in 2021. The quarter over quarter decline in wealth management fees is primarily attributable to customary seasonality in farm management income as well as declines in market valuations. Net income from the Wealth Management segment was $5.1 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $5.8 million for the first quarter of 2022, and $4.9 million in the second quarter of 2021, a 4.2% increase from the comparable period in 2021. First Busey’s Wealth Management division ended the second quarter of 2022 with $11.45 billion in assets under care, a decrease from $12.33 billion at the end of the first quarter of 2022 and from $12.30 billion at the end of the second quarter of 2021, principally due to a reduction in market valuations, offset partially by relative outperformance from our investment management team as well as new asset under care inflows.

Payment technology solutions revenue from FirsTech was $4.9 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $5.1 million for the first quarter of 2022 and $4.5 million for the second quarter of 2021. Excluding intracompany eliminations, FirsTech generated revenue of $5.4 million during the second quarter of 2022, holding steady with the first quarter of 2022 and an increase from $4.8 million during the second quarter of 2021. A reduction in transactions for a large enterprise customer related to economic impacts on consumer payment cycles and a longer-than-anticipated sales and implementation cycle in the Banking as a Service (BaaS) strategy has impacted revenues to date. The FirsTech operating segment generated net income of $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2022, a decrease from $0.6 million in the first quarter of 2022 and steady with the second quarter of 2021. The Company is currently making strategic investments in FirsTech to further enhance future growth including further upgrades to the product and engineering teams to build an application programming interface (API) first cloud-based platform to provide for fully integrated payment capabilities as well as the continued development of our BaaS platform.

Fees for customer services were $9.6 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $8.9 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $8.6 million in the second quarter of 2021, an 11.3% increase from the comparable period in 2021, as a greater proportion of closed loan volume was directed into adjustable-rate mortgage loans held in our portfolio.

Mortgage revenue was $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2022, a decrease from $1.0 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $1.7 million in the second quarter of 2021. Sold-loan mortgage volume declined in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2022 and the second quarter of 2021, as a greater portion of closed loan volume was directed in adjustable-rate mortgage loans held in portfolio.

Other noninterest income was $3.0 million in the second quarter of 2022, a decrease from $4.8 million in the first quarter of 2022 and an increase from $2.7 million in the second quarter of 2021. Second quarter 2022 declines, compared to the first quarter of 2022, were primarily the result of a decrease in income recognized on venture capital investments and disposal of fixed assets, partially offset by higher SBA loan sale gains recorded during the second quarter of 2022.

Beginning on July 1, 2022, we became subject to the Durbin Amendment of the Dodd-Frank Act. The Durbin Amendment requires the Federal Reserve to establish a maximum permissible interchange fee for many types of debit transactions. We expect a $4.3 million to $4.5 million reduction in noninterest income in the second half of 2022 and a reduction of $8.5 million to $9.0 million for the full year 2023.

Operating Efficiency

Noninterest expense was $69.1 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $70.4 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $62.6 million in the second quarter of 2021. Excluding non-operating adjustments1, noninterest expense was $68.8 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $69.5 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $59.9 million in the second quarter of 2021. As a result, the efficiency ratio1 was 60.56% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, compared to 62.97% for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, and 61.68% for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The adjusted core efficiency ratio1 was 59.01%, 59.89%, and 58.13% for the quarters ended June 30, 2022, March 31, 2022, and June 30, 2021, respectively. The Company remains focused on expense discipline, while making necessary investments to support the organic growth of our key business lines and related support and risk management functions.

Noteworthy components of noninterest expense are as follows:

  • Salaries, wages, and employee benefits were $38.1 million in the second quarter of 2022, a decrease from $39.4 million in the first quarter of 2022, and an increase from $34.9 million in the second quarter of 2021. Total full-time equivalents numbered 1,493 at June 30, 2022, compared to 1,465 at March 31, 2022, and 1,503 at June 30, 2021. The Company did not record any non-operating expense for salaries, wages, and employee benefit expenses in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $0.6 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $1.1 million in the second quarter of 2021.
  • Data processing expense was $5.4 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $5.0 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $4.8 million in the second quarter of 2021. The Company did not record any non-operating data processing expenses in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $0.2 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $0.4 million in the second quarter of 2021.
  • Professional fees were $1.6 million in the second quarter of 2022, an increase from $1.5 million in the first quarter of 2022 and a decrease from $2.3 million in the second quarter of 2021. The Company recorded $0.2 million of non-operating professional fees in the second quarter of 2022, compared to an immaterial amount in the first quarter of 2022 and $0.9 million in the second quarter of 2021.
  • Amortization expense was $3.0 million in the second quarter of 2022, holding steady with the first quarter of 2022 and an increase from $2.7 million in the second quarter of 2021. We completed the acquisition of Glenview State Bank (GSB) on May 31, 2021, and as a result, the second quarter of 2021 reflects only one month of amortization expense related to the acquisition of GSB.
  • Other operating expenses were $12.8 million for the second quarter of 2022, a decrease from $12.9 million in the first quarter of 2022, and an increase from $10.2 million in the second quarter of 2021. The Company recorded $0.1 million of non-operating expenses within the other operating expense line in the second quarter of 2022, compared to an immaterial amount in the first quarter of 2022 and $0.2 million in the second quarter of 2021. There was an additional $0.2 million of lease termination expenses related to the exit of two properties during the second quarter. Other operating expense fluctuations primarily relate to a decrease in the provision for unfunded commitments of $1.4 million from the first quarter to the second quarter, a $1.0 million increase in business development and marketing expenses from the first quarter to the second quarter, a decline in losses on OREO sales from $0.6 million in the first quarter to an immaterial amount in the second, an increase of $0.3 million in the amortization of New Markets Tax Credits from the first quarter to the second quarter, and higher regulatory costs.

Capital Strength

The Company's strong capital levels, coupled with its earnings, have allowed First Busey to provide a steady return to its stockholders through dividends. The Company will pay a cash dividend on July 29, 2022, of $0.23 per common share to stockholders of record as of July 22, 2022. The Company has consistently paid dividends to its common stockholders since the bank holding company was organized in 1980.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company continued to exceed the capital adequacy requirements necessary to be considered “well-capitalized” under applicable regulatory guidelines. The Company’s Common Equity Tier 1 ratio is estimated to be 11.77% at June 30, 20224, compared to 11.89% at March 31, 2022, and 12.26% at June 30, 2021. The Company’s tangible common equity1 was $801.9 million at June 30, 2022, compared to $855.6 million at March 31, 2022, and $981.9 million at June 30, 2021. Tangible common equity1 represented 6.68% of tangible assets at June 30, 2022, compared to 7.01% at March 31, 2022, and 8.15% at June 30, 2021. The Company’s tangible book value1 per common share declined from $15.29 at March 31, 2022, to $14.31 at June 30, 2022. The quarter-over-quarter decline in both the ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets1 and tangible book value per share1 is primarily attributable to the fair market valuation adjustment of the Company’s securities portfolio as a result of the rapidly rising rate environment as reflected in the accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) (AOCI) component of shareholder’s equity, net of retained earnings and amortization of intangible assets over the same period.

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company purchased 70,000 shares of its common stock at a weighted average price of $22.91 per share for a total of $1.6 million under the Company’s stock repurchase plan. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had 277,210 shares remaining on its stock repurchase plan available for repurchase.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

This earnings release contains certain financial information determined by methods other than GAAP. Management uses these non-GAAP measures, together with the related GAAP measures, in analysis of the Company’s performance and in making business decisions, as well as for comparison to the Company’s peers. The Company believes the adjusted measures are useful for investors and management to understand the effects of certain non-recurring noninterest items and provide additional perspective on the Company’s performance over time.

A reconciliation to what management believes to be the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures—specifically, net interest income, total noninterest income, net security gains and losses, and total noninterest expense in the case of pre-provision net revenue, adjusted pre-provision net revenue, pre-provision net revenue to average assets, and adjusted pre-provision net revenue to average assets; net income in the case of adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted return on average assets, return on average tangible common equity, and adjusted return on average tangible common equity; net interest income in the case of adjusted net interest income and adjusted net interest margin; net interest income, total noninterest income, and total noninterest expense in the case of adjusted noninterest expense, adjusted core expense, efficiency ratio, adjusted efficiency ratio, and adjusted core efficiency ratio; total stockholders’ equity in the case of tangible book value per common share; total assets and total stockholders’ equity in the case of tangible common equity and tangible common equity to tangible assets; portfolio loans in the case of core loans and core loans to portfolio loans; total deposits in the case of core deposits and core deposits to total deposits; and portfolio loans and total deposits in the case of core loans to core deposits—appears below.

These non-GAAP disclosures have inherent limitations and are not audited. They should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating results reported in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Tax effected numbers included in these non-GAAP disclosures are based on estimated statutory rates or effective rates as appropriate.

Special Note Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

Statements made in this document, other than those concerning historical financial information, may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to the financial condition, results of operations, plans, objectives, future performance, and business of the Company. Forward-looking statements, which may be based upon beliefs, expectations, and assumptions of the Company’s management, and on information currently available to management, are generally identifiable by the use of words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “intend,” “estimate,” “may,” “will,” “would,” “could,” “should,” or other similar expressions. Additionally, all statements in this document, including forward-looking statements, speak only as of the date they are made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any statement in light of new information or future events. A number of factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s ability to control or predict, could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the Company’s forward-looking statements. These factors include, among others, the following: (i) the strength of the local, state, national, and international economy (including effects of inflationary pressures and supply chain constraints); (ii) the economic impact of any future terrorist threats or attacks, widespread disease or pandemics (including the Coronavirus Disease 2019 pandemic), or other adverse external events that could cause economic deterioration or instability in credit markets (including Russia’s invasion of Ukraine); (iii) changes in state and federal laws, regulations, and governmental policies concerning the Company’s general business; (iv) changes in accounting policies and practices; (v) changes in interest rates and prepayment rates of the Company’s assets (including the impact of The London Inter-bank Offered Rate phase-out); (vi) increased competition in the financial services sector and the inability to attract new customers; (vii) changes in technology and the ability to develop and maintain secure and reliable electronic systems; (viii) the loss of key executives or associates; (ix) changes in consumer spending; (x) unexpected results of current and/or future acquisitions, which may include failure to realize the anticipated benefits of any acquisition and the possibility that transaction costs may be greater than anticipated; (xi) unexpected outcomes of existing or new litigation involving the Company; and (xii) the economic impact of exceptional weather occurrences such as tornadoes, hurricanes, floods, and blizzards. These risks and uncertainties should be considered in evaluating forward-looking statements and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. Additional information concerning the Company and its business, including additional factors that could materially affect its financial results, is included in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
