Second Quarter Financial Results:
First Merchants Corporation (the “Corporation) has reported second quarter 2023 net income available to common stockholders of $60.4 million compared to $38.5 million during the same period in 2022. Diluted earnings per common share for the period totaled $1.02 per share compared to the second quarter of 2022 result of $.63 per share. Prior year results included acquisition costs related to the acquisition of Level One of $29.3 million resulting in a reduction of $.38 of diluted earnings per common share.
Total assets equaled $18.0 billion as of quarter-end and loans totaled $12.3 billion. During the past twelve months, total loans grew by $1.0 billion, or 9.2 percent and were offset by the non-relationship based commercial loan sale of $116.6 million and PPP loan forgiveness of $29.6 million. On a linked quarter basis, loans grew $163.2 million, or 5.4 percent, when excluding the loan sale that occurred during the quarter of $116.6 million.
Investments, totaling $3.9 billion, decreased $738.5 million, or 16.0 percent, during the last twelve months and decreased $165.9 million, or 16.4 percent annualized on a linked quarter basis. The decline during the quarter was primarily due to $101.0 million of bond sales.
Total deposits equaled $14.6 billion as of quarter-end and increased by $10.3 million over the past twelve months. Total deposits declined $122.1 million, or 3.3 percent annualized on a linked quarter basis. The loan to deposit ratio for the current quarter ended at 84.3 percent.
The Corporation’s Allowance for Credit Losses – Loans (ACL) totaled $221.1 million as of quarter-end, or 1.80 percent of total loans, a decrease of $5.1 million from prior year. Loan charge-offs, net of recoveries, for the quarter totaled $1.9 million. No provision expense was recorded during the quarter or during the last twelve months. Non-performing assets to total assets were 0.43 percent for the second quarter of 2023, an increase of 13 basis points compared to 0.30 percent in the second quarter of 2022.
Net-interest income, totaling $137.8 million for the quarter, declined $6.3 million, or 4.4 percent, compared to prior quarter and increased $9.2 million, or 7.1 percent compared to the second quarter of 2022. Stated net-interest margin on a tax equivalent basis, totaling 3.39 percent, declined by 19 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2023 but increased 11 basis points compared to the second quarter of 2022. Net-interest margin, excluding the impact of fair value accretion and PPP loans, totaled 3.34 percent, a decrease of 18 basis points compared to 3.52 percent for the first quarter of 2023 but an increase of 15 basis points from the second quarter of 2022. During the quarter, increased deposit costs and mix offset the increase in earning asset yields reducing net-interest margin.
Non-interest income, totaling $26.3 million for the quarter, increased $1.3 million or 5.3 percent compared to the first quarter of 2023 but decreased $2.0 million from the second quarter of 2022. The increase over first quarter of 2023 was driven primarily by higher gains on the sales of loans and BOLI death benefit gains.
Non-interest expense totaled $92.6 million for the quarter, a decline of $1.1 million from the first quarter of 2023. The decrease was from lower salaries and employee benefits, partially offset by increases in FDIC assessments and other real estate owned and foreclosure expense.
The Corporation’s total risk-based capital ratio equaled 13.48 percent, common equity tier 1 capital ratio equaled 11.07 percent, and the tangible common equity ratio totaled 7.99 percent. These ratios continue to reflect the Corporation’s strong liquidity and capital positions.
