Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta Announces Second Quarter 2023 Operating Highlights

ATLANTA, July 27, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Federal Home Loan Bank of Atlanta (the Bank) today released preliminary unaudited financial highlights for the quarter ended June 30, 2023. All numbers reported below for the second quarter of 2023 are approximate until the Bank announces unaudited financial results in its Form 10-Q, which is expected to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on or about August 11, 2023.

Operating Results for the Second Quarter 2023

  • Net income for the second quarter of 2023 was $174 million, an increase of $147 million, compared to net income of $27 million for the same period in 2022. The increase in net income was primarily due to a $163 million increase in net interest income.

  • The increases in net interest income and net income were primarily due to an increase in interest rates which impacted income from interest-earning assets more than the expense from interest-bearing liabilities, as well as an increase in average advance balances. Average advance balances were $154.5 billion for the second quarter of 2023, compared to $67.2 billion for the same period in 2022. The increase in average balances was primarily driven by higher demand from members driven by the liquidity concerns in the financial markets which began in mid-March 2023 and continued into the beginning of the second quarter of 2023.

  • The Bank's second quarter 2023 performance resulted in an annualized return on average equity (ROE) of 7.23 percent as compared to 1.96 percent for the same period in 2022. The increase in ROE was primarily due to the increase in net income during the quarter.

Financial Condition Highlights

  • Total assets were $174.3 billion as of June 30, 2023, an increase of $22.6 billion from December 31, 2022. The increase in total assets was primarily due to a $17.5 billion increase in investments.

  • Advances outstanding were $112.4 billion as of June 30, 2023, an increase of $2.8 billion from December 31, 2022.
  • Total capital was $7.9 billion as of June 30, 2023, an increase of $299 million from December 31, 2022. The increase in capital stock was primarily due to an increase in advances which requires issuance of additional activity-based stock, pursuant to the Bank’s capital plan. Retained earnings did not vary significantly, increasing to $2.4 billion as of June 30, 2023, compared to $2.3 billion as of December 31, 2022.

  • As of June 30, 2023, the Bank was in compliance with all regulatory capital and liquidity requirements.

Affordable Housing and Community Investment

  • The Bank is required to set aside 10 percent of its net income to support the affordable housing and economic development needs of communities served by its members. For the first six months ended June 30, 2023, the Bank has accrued $33 million to its Affordable Housing Program (AHP) pool of funds that will be available to the Bank’s members in 2024.

  • Additionally, during the second quarter of 2023, the Bank made a $7.2 million additional voluntary contribution to its AHP Homeownership Set-aside Program funding to assist eligible borrowers purchase or rehabilitate a home through the Bank's member financial institutions. Funds are available on a first-come, first-served basis via the Bank’s First-time Homebuyer Product, the Community Partners Product, and the Community Rebuild and Restore Product.

  • Since the inception of its AHP in 1990, the Bank has awarded more than $1.1 billion in AHP funds, assisting more than 174,000 households.

Reliable Source of Liquidity

  • For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Bank originated $307.6 billion of advances, thereby providing significant liquidity to its members. The Bank has continued to execute on the Bank’s business model, as a reliable source of liquidity and funding for its members, while remaining adequately capitalized during the second quarter of 2023. The Bank cannot predict other extraordinary events that may have an impact on the Bank’s results of operations, nor the extent to which these events could continue to impact advance demand levels.
