Fulton Financial Corporation Announces Third Quarter 2024 Results

LANCASTER, Pa. , Oct. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Fulton Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: FULT) ("Fulton" or the "Corporation") reported net income available to common shareholders of $60.6 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2024, a decrease of $31.8 million, or $0.19 per share, in comparison to the second quarter of 2024. Operating net income available to common shareholders for the three months ended September 30, 2024 was $91.3 million, or $0.50 per diluted share(1), an increase of $8.8 million, or $0.03 per share, in comparison to the second quarter of 2024.

"We are excited about the progress we made on key strategic initiatives and pleased to see that this work has generated record operating earnings this quarter," said Curtis J. Myers, Chairman and CEO of Fulton. "We continue to see strong operating revenue growth, improvement in operating efficiency and profitability, combined with solid organic capital generation."

Financial Highlights

Third quarter of 2024 operating results of $0.50 per diluted share represented an all-time high for Fulton and was impacted by the following items:

  • Solid net interest margin of 3.49%, an increase of six basis points compared to the prior quarter.

  • Excluding brokered deposits, customer deposits increased $745.0 million compared to the prior quarter.

  • Common equity tier 1 capital increased to 10.5%, compared to 10.3% in the prior quarter.

  • Tangible shareholders' equity per common share increased $0.59, or 4.7%, to $13.02 compared to the prior quarter.

  • Acquisition-related(2) expenses of $14.2 million.

  • FultonFirst implementation and asset disposal costs of $9.4 million.

The following items highlight notable changes in the components of net income in the third quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2024:

  • Net interest income totaled $258.0 million, an increase of $16.3 million, which was largely due to the full-quarter impact of the Acquisition and an increase in on-balance sheet liquidity.

  • Non-interest income before investment securities gains (losses) was $59.7 million compared to $113.3 million in the second quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily due to a $55.1 million change in the gain on acquisition (net of tax) with a $7.7 million reduction recorded in the third quarter of 2024.

  • Non-interest expense was $226.1 million compared to $219.8 million in the second quarter of 2024, excluding the $20.3 million gain on the sale-leaseback transaction, reflected in other expense in the second quarter of 2024. The increase was largely due to an $8.2 million increase in salaries and benefits expense driven by a $4.9 million increase in employee severance costs related to the FultonFirst initiative, a full-quarter impact of salaries and benefits from the Acquisition resulting in an increase of $2.7 million and a $1.7 million increase in incentive compensation expense. The increase in salaries and benefits expense was partially offset by a $1.4 million decrease in consulting costs related to the FultonFirst initiative.

Balance Sheet Summary

  • Net loans totaled $24.2 billion, an increase of $69.8 million compared to $24.1 billion as of June 30, 2024. The increase was largely due to increases of $203.7 million and $53.8 million in commercial mortgage loans and residential mortgage loans, respectively, partially offset by decreases of $130.8 million, $53.1 million and $40.4 million in construction loans, commercial and industrial loans and consumer loans, respectively. Excluding the impact from the day 1 Purchased Credit Deteriorated ("PCD") adjustment of $55.9 million and purchase accounting accretion of $24.9 million, net loans acquired in the Acquisition declined approximately $82.3 million since the Acquisition Date. Excluding purchase accounting accretion of $14.5 million, net loans acquired in the Acquisition declined approximately $49.2 million to $2.5 billion, compared to the second quarter of 2024.

  • Deposits totaled $26.2 billion, an increase of $592.5 million compared to $25.6 billion as of June 30, 2024. The increase was primarily due to increases of $374.2 million, $301.4 million and $177.1 million in time deposits, interest-bearing demand deposits and savings deposits, respectively, partially offset by decreases of $152.5 million in brokered deposits and $107.7 million in noninterest-bearing demand deposits. Deposits assumed in the Acquisition declined approximately $248.6 million since the Acquisition Date and increased approximately $108.7 million to $3.9 billion compared to the second quarter of 2024.

Provision for Credit Losses and Asset Quality

  • The provision for credit losses was $11.9 million in the third quarter of 2024 compared to $32.1 million in the second quarter of 2024. The decrease was primarily related to the Acquisition, which included a provision for credit losses of $23.4 million for non-PCD loans in the second quarter of 2024.

  • Non-performing assets were $205.0 million, or 0.64% of total assets, at September 30, 2024, in comparison to $174.0 million, or 0.55% of total assets, at June 30, 2024.

  • Net charge-offs for the third quarter of 2024 were 0.18% of total average loans in comparison to 0.19% in the second quarter of 2024.

  • The allowance for credit losses attributable to net loans remained relatively unchanged and totaled $376.0 million, or 1.56% of total loans at September 30, 2024, compared to $375.9 million, or 1.56% of total loans at June 30, 2024.

Explanatory note:

This press release contains supplemental financial information, as detailed below, that has been derived by methods other than GAAP. The Corporation has presented these non-GAAP financial measures because it believes that these measures provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in the Corporation's results of operations and financial condition. Presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is consistent with how the Corporation evaluates its performance internally and these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the Corporation's industry. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, in addition to GAAP measures, are also useful to investors to evaluate the Corporation's results. Investors should recognize that the Corporation's presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures might not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures, and the Corporation strongly encourages a review of its condensed consolidated financial statements in their entirety. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measure follow:
