IOWA CITY, Iowa, April 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MidWestOne Financial Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: MOFG) (“we”, “our”, or the "Company”) today reported results for the first quarter of 2024.

CEO Commentary

Charles (Chip) Reeves, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “We are very pleased with the underlying strength of the first quarter as we continue to execute on our strategic initiatives. During the quarter we closed and integrated Denver Bankshares, the front end of our geographic realignment announced in late September 2023, and our Florida divestiture remains on track for a June 2024 closing.

Importantly, our net interest margin expanded this quarter, rising 11 bps, with net interest income increasing 7% from the fourth quarter of 2023. This outcome reflected the strategic balance sheet actions taken in 2023, the completed merger of DNVB, and continued loan growth in our targeted metro markets.

In Commercial Banking and Wealth Management, our customer and banker acquisition strategies led to robust balance sheet, assets under management, and revenue gains, and we will continue to invest in these critical business lines. Even amidst significant talent, platform, and product investments, we have been able to re-allocate resources to maintain expense discipline.

We welcome our new Bank of Denver team members, and I am proud of our entire MidWestOne team for their commitment to our customers and execution of our strategic plan."

Total revenue for the first quarter of 2024 increased $8.1 million from the fourth quarter of 2023 due to higher noninterest income and net interest income during the quarter. When compared to the first quarter of 2023, total revenue increased $8.5 million due to higher noninterest income, partially offset by lower net interest income.

Net interest income of $34.7 million for the first quarter of 2024 increased $2.2 million from the fourth quarter of 2023, primarily due to higher interest earning asset volumes and yields, partially offset by higher interest bearing liabilities volumes and funding costs. When compared to the first quarter of 2023, net interest income decreased $5.3 million, primarily due to higher funding costs and volumes, partially offset by higher interest earning asset volumes and yields.

The Company's tax equivalent net interest margin was 2.33%3 in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 2.22%3 in the fourth quarter of 2023, as higher earning asset yields more than offset increased funding costs. Total interest earning assets yield during the first quarter of 2024 increased 20 bps from the fourth quarter of 2023, as a result of increased loan and securities yields of 17 bps and 10 bps, respectively. The cost of interest bearing liabilities during the first quarter of 2024 increased 10 bps, to 2.75%, due primarily to interest bearing deposit costs of 2.45% and long-term debt of 6.86%, which increased 6 bps and 7 bps, respectively, from the fourth quarter of 2023, as well as a mix-shift to increased short-term borrowings. Our cycle-to-date interest bearing deposit beta was 41%.

The Company's tax equivalent net interest margin was 2.33%3 in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 2.75%3 in the first quarter of 2023, driven by higher funding costs, partially offset by higher interest earning asset yields. The cost of interest bearing liabilities increased 116 bps to 2.75%, due to interest bearing deposit costs of 2.45%, short-term borrowing costs of 4.82%, and long-term debt costs of 6.86%, which increased 107 bps, 200 bps and 67 bps, respectively from the first quarter of 2023. Total interest earning assets yield increased 56 bps from the first quarter of 2023, primarily as a result of an increase in loan yields of 56 bps.

3 Non-GAAP measure. See the separate Non-GAAP Measures section for a reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure.


Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2024 increased $5.9 million from the linked quarter, primarily due to investment securities losses, net, of $5.7 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2023 as part of a balance sheet repositioning, which did not recur in the first quarter of 2024. Investment services and trust activities income increased $0.3 million during the first quarter of 2024, as a result of growth in assets under administration and market valuation.

Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2024 increased $13.8 million from the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to the investment securities losses, net, of $13.2 million recorded in the first quarter of 2023 as part of a balance sheet repositioning, which did not recur in the first quarter of 2024. Investment services and trust activities income increased $0.6 million compared to the first quarter of 2023, due to growth in assets under administration. Partially offsetting these identified increases was a decline of $0.6 million in loan revenue, which primarily reflected the unfavorable year-over-year change in the fair value of our mortgage servicing rights, from a positive adjustment of $315 thousand in the first quarter of 2023 to a negative adjustment of $368 thousand in the first quarter of 2024.

Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2024 increased $3.4 million from the linked quarter primarily due to increases of $3.1 million, $0.5 million, and $0.3 million in compensation and employee benefits, occupancy expense of premises, net, and foreclosed assets, net, respectively. The increase in compensation and employee benefits was primarily driven by annual compensation adjustments, increased headcount as a result of the DNVB acquisition, increased incentive and commission expense, and merger-related expenses. The increase in occupancy was primarily driven by additional expense as a result of the DNVB acquisition, merger-related expenses, and increased costs for snow removal. The increase in foreclosed assets expense was driven by a $0.3 million write-down of other real estate owned.

Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2024 increased $2.2 million from the first quarter of 2023, primarily due to increases of $1.3 million, $0.4 million, and $0.4 million in compensation and employee benefits, equipment, and foreclosed assets, net, respectively. The increase in compensation and employee benefits was primarily driven by annual compensation adjustments, increased headcount as a result of the DNVB acquisition, increased incentive and commission expense, and merger-related expenses. The increase in equipment reflected higher software costs and merger-related expenses. The increase in foreclosed assets, net, was due to a $0.3 million write-down of other real estate owned. Partially offsetting these increases was a decline of $0.4 million in marketing.

The Company's effective tax rate was 22.7% in the first quarter of 2024. The effective income tax rate for 2024 is expected to be 21-23%.

BALANCE SHEET REVIEW

(5) Allowance for credit losses ratio is calculated as allowance for credit losses divided by loans held for investment, net of unearned income, at the end of the period.
(6) Allowance for credit losses to nonaccrual loans ratio is calculated as allowance for credit losses divided by nonaccrual loans at the end of the period.


Compared to the linked quarter, the nonperforming loans and nonperforming assets ratios remained stable, with slight increases in both ratios of 2 bps, to 0.66% and 0.49%, respectively. Special mention/watch balances increased $39.6 million from the linked quarter primarily due to two trucking industry relationships, while the classified loans ratio decreased 36 bps from the linked quarter. When compared to the prior year, the nonperforming loans and assets ratios increased 29 bps and 26 bps, respectively. Further, the net charge-off ratio declined 18 bps from the linked quarter and 1 bp from the same period in the prior year.

As of March 31, 2024, the allowance for credit losses was $55.9 million and the allowance for credit losses ratio was 1.27%, compared with $51.5 million and 1.25% at December 31, 2023. Credit loss expense of $4.7 million in the first quarter of 2024 reflected $3.2 million of day 1 credit loss expense related to the DNVB acquisition, as well as additional reserve taken to support organic loan growth.

We and our representatives may, from time to time, make written or oral statements that are “forward-looking” and provide information other than historical information. These statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to be materially different from any results, levels of activity, performance or achievements expressed or implied by any forward-looking statement. These factors include, among other things, the factors listed below. Forward-looking statements, which may be based upon beliefs, expectations and assumptions of our management and on information currently available to management, are generally identifiable by the use of words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “should,” “could,” “would,” “plans,” “goals,” “intend,” “project,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “may” or similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, these statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date made. Additionally, we undertake no obligation to update any statement in light of new information or future events, except as required under federal securities law.

Our ability to predict results or the actual effect of future plans or strategies is inherently uncertain. Factors that could have an impact on our ability to achieve operating results, growth plan goals and future prospects include, but are not limited to, the following: (1) the risks of mergers or branch sales (including the sale of our Florida branches and the recent acquisition of DNVB), including, without limitation, the related time and costs of implementing such transactions, integrating operations as part of these transactions and possible failures to achieve expected gains, revenue growth and/or expense savings from such transactions; (2) credit quality deterioration, pronounced and sustained reduction in real estate market values, or other uncertainties, including the impact of inflationary pressures on economic conditions and our business, resulting in an increase in the allowance for credit losses, an increase in the credit loss expense, and a reduction in net earnings; (3) the effects of significant increases in inflation and interest rates since 2020, including on our net income and the value of our securities portfolio; (4) changes in the economic environment, competition, or other factors that may affect our ability to acquire loans or influence the anticipated growth rate of loans and deposits and the quality of the loan portfolio and loan and deposit pricing; (5) fluctuations in the value of our investment securities; (6) governmental monetary and fiscal policies; (7) changes in and uncertainty related to benchmark interest rates used to price loans and deposits; (8) legislative and regulatory changes, including changes in banking, securities, trade, and tax laws and regulations and their application by our regulators, including the 1.0% excise tax on stock buybacks by publicly traded companies and any changes in response to the recent failures of other banks; (9) the ability to attract and retain key executives and employees experienced in banking and financial services; (10) the sufficiency of the allowance for credit losses to absorb the amount of actual losses inherent in our existing loan portfolio; (11) our ability to adapt successfully to technological changes to compete effectively in the marketplace; (12) credit risks and risks from concentrations (by geographic area and by industry) within our loan portfolio; (13) the effects of competition from other commercial banks, thrifts, mortgage banking firms, consumer finance companies, credit unions, securities brokerage firms, insurance companies, money market and other mutual funds, financial technology companies, and other financial institutions operating in our markets or elsewhere or providing similar services; (14) the failure of assumptions underlying the establishment of allowances for credit losses and estimation of values of collateral and various financial assets and liabilities; (15) volatility of rate-sensitive deposits; (16) operational risks, including data processing system failures or fraud; (17) asset/liability matching risks and liquidity risks; (18) the costs, effects and outcomes of existing or future litigation; (19) changes in general economic, political, or industry conditions, nationally, internationally or in the communities in which we conduct business, including the risk of a recession; (20) changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by state and federal regulatory agencies and the Financial Accounting Standards Board; (21) war or terrorist activities, including the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the Russian invasion of Ukraine, widespread disease or pandemic, or other adverse external events, which may cause deterioration in the economy or cause instability in credit markets; (22) the occurrence of fraudulent activity, breaches, or failures of our or our third-party vendors' information security controls or cyber-security related incidents, including as a result of sophisticated attacks using artificial intelligence and similar tools; (23) the imposition of tariffs or other domestic or international governmental policies impacting the value of the agricultural or other products of our borrowers; (24) potential changes in federal policy and at regulatory agencies as a result of the upcoming 2024 presidential election; (25) the concentration of large deposits from certain clients who have balances above current FDIC insurance limits; (26) the effects of recent developments and events in the financial services industry, including the large-scale deposit withdrawals over a short period of time that resulted in recent bank failures; and (27) other risk factors detailed from time to time in Securities and Exchange Commission filings made by the Company.
