HomeStreet, Inc. Reports First Quarter 2018 Results

Key highlights and developments for first quarter 2018:
Loans held for investment grew to $4.78 billion, an increase of $250.9 million, or 6%, from $4.53 billion at December 31, 2017, and an increase of $794.4 million, or 20%, from $3.99 billion at March 31, 2017
Deposits increased to $5.05 billion, up 6% from December 31, 2017 and 10% from March 31, 2017
The ratio of non-performing assets to total assets fell to 0.16%, the lowest level since 2006
Three de novo retail deposit branches opened during the quarter
Mortgage Banking segment results were adversely impacted by reduced gain-on-sale margins, lower origination volumes, and lower servicing income
A cost reduction initiative executed in April 2018 is expected to result in $12.4 million of planned personnel and other annualized cost savings

SEATTLE – April 23, 2018 – (BUSINESS WIRE) – HomeStreet, Inc. (Nasdaq:HMST) (including its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company” or “HomeStreet”), the parent company of HomeStreet Bank, today announced net income of $5.9 million, or $0.22 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2018, compared with net income of $34.9 million, or $1.29 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2017, and $9.0 million, or $0.33 per diluted share for first quarter of 2017. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2017 included a one-time, non-cash tax benefit of $23.3 million, or $0.86 per share. Core net income(1) for the first quarter of 2018, was $5.6 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, compared with core net income(1) of $11.5 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, for the fourth quarter of 2017, and $9.0 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2017.
In response to the ongoing challenges in our Mortgage Banking Segment and reduced expectations for growth, in April we took steps to improve our cost structure and efficiency. These steps include reductions in headcount and other non-personnel costs in the Commercial and Consumer Banking and the Mortgage Banking business units as well as corporate support functions. These actions resulted in a headcount reduction of 86 FTE and a decrease in non-personnel related expenses, which we expect will result in an annualized reduction of planned pre-tax expense of $12.4 million.

“The first quarter of 2018 was one of meeting challenges,” said Mark K. Mason, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer. “The limited supply of new and resale housing has become acute and is beginning to be felt nationwide, the yield curve has flattened considerably to near historic lows, and the capital markets experienced periods of extreme volatility during the quarter. Nevertheless, we made significant progress on our strategic goals of growth and diversification with loans held for investment increasing by 6% during the quarter while asset quality continued to improve. Nonperforming assets decreased to 0.16% of total assets, representing the lowest absolute and relative levels of problem assets since 2006. We were also able to increase deposits by 6%, aided by a 4.3% increase in business deposits.”
“The results of our Mortgage Banking Segment continue to be adversely impacted by higher interest rates which have reduced demand for refinance mortgages, and the limited supply of new and resale housing in our markets has limited the volume of purchase mortgages. This lower volume of new and resale housing has increased price competition, putting downward pressure on our composite profit margin. Additionally, the flattening yield curve and increased convexity in our mortgage servicing portfolio have substantially reduced our mortgage servicing revenue.”
“In the face of these challenges, in April we implemented a company-wide cost reduction plan, reducing headcount and non-personnel related expenses. These actions were tailored to reduce costs meaningfully while maintaining safe and sound risk management and an ability to meet our strategic goals. Of the 86 FTE reductions, 37 were in the Mortgage Banking segment. We appreciate the service of those employees affected by these actions and believe the steps we have taken will be sufficient to address our current challenges. However, we remain focused on identifying additional ways to improve our cost structure and efficiency as we work through this part of the mortgage cycle and pursue the goals of our strategic plan.”

Consolidated Results of Operations
Net Income
Our net income was lower when compared to net income in the fourth quarter of 2017 primarily because we recognized a one-time non-cash tax benefit of $23.3 million in the fourth quarter from the revaluation of our net deferred tax liability position at December 31, 2017 at the new, lower federal corporate income tax rate of 21% from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act legislation (the "Tax Reform Act") signed into law in December 2017; and to a lesser extent due to lower gain on loan origination and sale activities and servicing income in our mortgage banking segment in the first quarter of 2018. The decrease in net income from the first quarter of 2017 was primarily due to lower gain on loan origination and sale activities and servicing income in our mortgage banking segment. As a result of weakness in our mortgage banking segment, and our focus on improving efficiency in our banking operations, we implemented a cost reduction plan early in the second quarter of 2018 which included a net reduction of 86 FTE in company-wide headcount and which we expect will result in an annualized reduction in planned pre-tax expense of $12.4 million.
Core Net Income
The decrease in core net income(1) from the fourth quarter of 2017 was primarily the result of lower core net income(1) in the Mortgage Banking segment primarily due to lower gain on loan origination and sale activities, lower mortgage servicing income, and by lower gain on loan origination and sale activities in our Commercial and Consumer Banking segment which was driven by seasonally lower multifamily and CRE loan sales volume.
Net Interest Income
The decrease in net interest income from the fourth quarter of 2017 was primarily due to lower average earning asset balances and higher interest bearing liabilities on a lower net interest margin. The increase in net interest income from the first quarter of 2017 was primarily due to growth in average interest-earning assets and higher net interest margin in our Commercial and Consumer Banking segment.

Our net interest margin, on a tax equivalent basis, decreased eight basis points to 3.25% compared with 3.33% in the fourth quarter of 2017 and increased two basis points from 3.23% in the first quarter of 2017. The decrease from the fourth quarter of 2017 was primarily due to changes in the composition and cost of interest bearing liabilities, primarily our FHLB borrowings, which increased more than the yield on interest-earning assets. The increase from the first quarter of 2017 was primarily due to the yield on interest-earning assets, which increased more rapidly than our cost of interest and non-interest bearing liabilities.
Total average interest-earning assets in the first quarter of 2018 decreased from the fourth quarter of 2017 primarily due to decreases in loans held for sale relating to the timing of loan originations and sales in the quarter. Total average interest-earning assets increased 5.4% from the first quarter of 2017 due to overall organic loan growth.
Provision for Credit Losses

The increase in the provision for credit losses from the fourth quarter of 2017 and the first quarter of 2017 was due to higher net loan portfolio growth and lower net recoveries during the quarter.


(1) For notes on non-GAAP financial measures see page 23.


9






Noninterest Income
The decreases in noninterest income from the fourth quarter of 2017 and first quarter of 2017 were primarily due to decreases of $10.4 million and $12.0 million, respectively, in gain on loan origination and sale activities in our Mortgage Banking segment. To a lesser extent, these decreases were also attributable to reduced gain on loan origination and sale activities in our Commercial and Consumer Banking segment, as the volume of loan sales in this segment were lower than prior quarters included in the comparison.
Noninterest Expense
The decreases in noninterest expense compared to both the fourth quarter of 2017 and first quarter of 2017, were primarily due to decreased commissions on lower closed loan volume in our Mortgage Banking segment. The decrease from the first quarter of 2017 was also attributable to cost savings associated with headcount and non-personnel costs in our Mortgage Banking segment implemented in the second and third quarters of 2017.
Other
As of March 31, 2018, we had 2,384 full-time equivalent employees, a 1% net decrease from 2,419 employees as of December 31, 2017, and an 8% net decrease from 2,581 employees as of March 31, 2017. The decrease in employees compared to March 31, 2017 was primarily due to the third quarter 2017 reduction in our workforce related to cost reductions in our Mortgage Banking segment. At March 31, 2018, we had 62 total retail deposit branches, 45 primary stand-alone home loan centers and six primary commercial loan centers.
Income Taxes
Our effective income tax rate of 24.5% for the first quarter of 2018 differs from the Federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the impact from a discrete item related to prior period state net operating losses.

HomeStreet, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Commercial and Consumer Banking Segment (continued)
Net Income
Commercial and Consumer Banking segment net income increased in the first quarter of 2018 compared to the first quarter of 2017 primarily due to the reduction in our effective tax rate and an increase in net interest income from higher average balances of interest-earning assets. This was partially offset by a decrease in net gain on loan origination and sale activities and increases in noninterest expense.
Core Net Income
Commercial and Consumer Banking segment net income, excluding tax reform-related expense and acquisition-related expense, net of tax, decreased from the fourth quarter of 2017 primarily due to a decrease in gain on loan origination and sale activities related to a seasonal decline in the volume of Multifamily DUS, CRE Non-DUS loans and SBA loans sold.
Provision for Credit Losses
The increase in the provision for credit losses from the fourth quarter of 2017 and the first quarter of 2017 was primarily due to higher loan growth and lower net recoveries in the quarter.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense in this segment decreased from the fourth quarter of 2017 despite the opening of three new de novo retail deposits branches in the fourth quarter of 2017 as a result of other actions taken to reduce operating costs including a reduction in marketing costs, temporary personnel and information services. The increase in noninterest expense in the first quarter of 2018 from the first quarter of 2017 was primarily due to higher salary costs from the continued growth of personnel in both our commercial real estate and commercial business lending units and our expanding branch banking network.

Asset Quality
Total non-performing assets decreased at March 31, 2018 compared to December 31, 2017 primarily due to the upgrade of a portfolio of loans to one single family residence of $3.2 million. Delinquent loans of $70.6 million, or 1.48% of total loans at March 31, 2018, increased from $68.9 million, or 1.52% of total loans at December 31, 2017. Excluding Federal Housing Administration ("FHA")-insured and Department of Veterans' Affairs ("VA")-guaranteed single family mortgage loans and Small Business Administration ("SBA")-guaranteed loans, delinquent loans were $10.8 million, or 0.23% of total non-guaranteed loans at March 31, 2018, compared to $16.2 million, or 0.37% of total non-guaranteed loans at December 31, 2017.
The allowance for loan losses was $39.1 million at March 31, 2018 compared to $37.8 million at December 31, 2017 and $34.7 million at March 31, 2017.

Excluding acquired loans, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 0.87% at March 31, 2018, compared with 0.90% at December 31, 2017 and 0.97% at March 31, 2017. Net recoveries in the first quarter of 2018 totaled $580 thousand, compared with net recoveries of $921 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2017 and $778 thousand in the first quarter of 2017.

(1)
Mortgage Banking segment net income (loss) and core efficiency ratio, excluding tax reform- related benefits, and restructuring-related items, are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures to provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the Company's operational performance and to enhance investors' overall understanding of the Company's financial performance. For corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial measures, see Non-GAAP Financial Measures in this earnings release.
(2)
Noninterest expense divided by total net revenue (net interest income and noninterest income).
(3)
Noninterest expense divided by total net revenue (net interest income and noninterest income), excluding tax reform-related benefits and restructuring related charges.
Net income (loss)
Earnings for our first quarter of 2018 were lower when compared to the fourth quarter of 2017, primarily due to the recognition in the fourth quarter of 2017 of a one-time $27.5 million tax benefit related to the Tax Reform Act, and to a lesser extent to lower gain on loan origination and sale activities and lower mortgage loan servicing income. The earnings decrease in the first quarter of 2018 compared to the first quarter of 2017 was primarily due to lower gain on loan origination and sale activities from lower rate locks and lower mortgage loan servicing income, partially offset by lower salary and related costs associated with headcount reductions from our second and third quarter 2017 restructuring events, and also due to decreased commissions, salary and related costs on lower closed loan volumes.
Core net income (loss)
The decrease in earnings, excluding tax reform-related benefit items and restructuring-related items, of $2.5 million in the first quarter of 2018 compared to the fourth quarter of 2017 was primarily due to lower gain on loan origination and sale activities and lower mortgage loan servicing income, partially offset by decreased commissions, salary and related costs on lower closed loan volumes.

Mortgage Origination for Sale
Single family mortgage interest rate lock and purchase loan commitments, net of estimated fallout, decreased from the first quarter of 2017 primarily reflecting the impact of a decreased supply of available housing in our markets, which limited our ability to originate purchase mortgages and increased competition in the mortgage industry as well as the impact of higher mortgage interest rates, which reduced the volume of refinance activity in the first quarter of 2018.
Our composite profit margin decreased from both the fourth quarter of 2017 and first quarter of 2017 primarily due to competitive market pressures.

Loan Servicing
The decreases in mortgage banking servicing income from the fourth quarter of 2017 and the first quarter of 2017 were primarily due to lower risk management results, partially offset by higher servicing fees. The flattening yield curve and increased negative convexity in our mortgage servicing portfolio have substantially reduced risk management results. The higher servicing fees relate to higher average balances of loans serviced for others.

HomeStreet, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, we have disclosed the following non-GAAP financial measures: core net income; core diluted income per common share; core efficiency ratios; net income (loss), excluding income tax reform-related items and acquisition-related items, net of tax, for our Commercial and Consumer Banking Segment and our Mortgage Banking Segment; return on average shareholders' equity, return on average tangible shareholders’ equity, and return on average assets, in each case excluding income tax reform-related items, restructuring related items, net of tax, and acquisition-related items, net of tax; tangible book value per share; and average tangible shareholders’ equity. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We have disclosed core net income; core diluted income per common share; noninterest expense, excluding income tax reform-related items, restructuring-related items, net of tax, acquisition-related items, net of tax; net income, excluding income tax reform-related items and acquisition-related items, net of tax, for our Commercial and Consumer Banking Segment; and net income (loss), excluding tax reform-related items, restructuring-related items, net of tax, for our Mortgage Banking Segment to provide comparisons of quarter-to-date fiscal 2018 information to the corresponding periods of fiscal 2017, excluding the impact of the Tax Reform Act related tax benefit, the after-tax impact of restructuring charges and the after-tax impact of acquisition-related expenses. We also have presented core efficiency ratios, which eliminate costs incurred in connection with these acquisitions. We refer to all of the above measurements as “Core” measurements. We have also presented return on average shareholders' equity, return on average tangible shareholders’ equity, and return on average assets, in each case excluding income tax reform-related items, restructuring related items and acquisition-related items, net of tax. We believe all of these measures are useful to investors who are seeking to exclude the Tax Reform Act related tax benefit, the after-tax impact of restructuring charges and the after-tax impact of acquisition-related expenses, which we recorded in connection with our merger with Orange County Business Bank on February 1, 2016, with our acquisition of two retail deposit branches in Lake Oswego, Oregon on August 12, 2016, two retail deposit branches in Southern California on November 11, 2016 and one retail deposit branch in Southern California on September 15, 2017. Our management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding our results of core operations by excluding certain restructuring-related expenses, as well as acquisition-related revenues and expenses, that may not be indicative of our expected recurring results of operations.

Similarly, we have provided information about our balance sheet items, including total loans, total deposits and total assets, adjusted in each case to eliminate acquisition-related impacts.

We also have disclosed tangible book value per share of common stock and return on average tangible shareholders’ equity which are non-GAAP financial measures.

We believe that both management and investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial measures in assessing our performance and when planning, forecasting, and analyzing future periods. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management's internal comparisons to our historical performance, as well as comparisons to our competitors' operating results. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors both because (1) they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision-making and (2) they are available to institutional investors and analysts to help them assess the strength of our business on a normalized basis.

Below we present a reconciliation of each non-GAAP financial measure to the nearest comparable GAAP measure.

(1)
Tangible shareholders’ equity is considered a non-GAAP financial measure and should be viewed in conjunction with shareholders’ equity. Tangible    shareholders’ equity is calculated by deducting goodwill and intangible assets (excluding loan servicing rights) from shareholders’ equity.
(2)
Tangible book value is calculated by dividing tangible shareholders’ equity by the number of common shares outstanding. The return on average tangible shareholders’ equity is calculated by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders (annualized) by average tangible shareholders’ equity.

Forward-Looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements concerning HomeStreet, Inc. and HomeStreet Bank and their operations, performance, financial conditions and likelihood of success, as well as plans and expectations for future actions and events. All statements other than statements of historical fact are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are based on many beliefs, assumptions, estimates and expectations of our future performance, taking into account information currently available to us, and include statements about the competitiveness of the banking industry and our expectations about the future regarding recent and planned growth. When used in this press release, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “potential,” “should,” “will” and “would” and similar expressions (including the negative of these terms) may help identify forward-looking statements. Such statements involve inherent risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and are generally beyond management's control. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date made, and we do not undertake to update them to reflect changes or events that occur after that date.

We caution readers that a number of factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied or projected by, such forward-looking statements. Among other things, we face limitations and risks associated with recent restructuring activities, the ongoing need to anticipate and address similar issues affecting our business, and challenges to our ability to efficiently expand our banking operations, meet our growth targets, maintain our competitive position and generate positive net income and cash flow. These limitations and risks include changes in general political and economic conditions that impact our markets and our business; actions by the Federal Reserve Board and financial market conditions that affect monetary and fiscal policy; regulatory and legislative actions that may increase capital requirements or otherwise constrain our ability to do business, including new or changing interpretations of existing statutes or regulations and restrictions that could be imposed by our regulators on certain aspects of our operations or on our growth initiatives and acquisition activities; our ability to maintain electronic and physical security of our customer data and our information systems; our ability to maintain compliance with current and evolving laws and regulations, our ability to attract and retain key personnel; the uncertainty and potentially destabilizing impact on our employees and customers from the recent activity of shareholder activists; our ability to make accurate estimates of the value of our non-cash assets and liabilities; our ability to operate our business efficiently in a time of lower revenues and increases in the competition in our industry and across our markets; and the extent of our success in resolving problem assets. The results of our restructuring activities and cost efficiency measures may fall short of our financial and operational expectations. In addition, we may not recognize all or a substantial portion of the value of our rate-lock loan activity due to challenges our customers may face in meeting current underwriting standards, decreases in interest rates; increase in competition for loans; unfavorable changes in general economic conditions, including housing prices and the job market; the impact of natural disasters on housing availability; the ability of our customers to meet their debt obligations; consumer confidence and spending habits either nationally or in the regional and local market areas in which we do business; and recent and future legislative or regulatory actions or reform that affect us directly or our business or the banking or mortgage industries more generally. A discussion of the factors that may pose a risk to the achievement of our business goals and our operational and financial objectives is contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, which we update from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We strongly recommend readers review those disclosures in conjunction with the discussions herein.

The information contained herein is unaudited, although certain information related to the year ended December 31, 2017 has been derived from our audited financial statements for the year then ended as included in our 2017 Form 10-K. All financial data should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2017 and the notes to such consolidated financial statements of HomeStreet, Inc., and subsidiaries as of and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017, as contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for such fiscal year.
