Warsaw, Indiana (October 26, 2020) – Lakeland Financial Corporation (Nasdaq Global Select/LKFN), parent company of Lake City Bank, today reported record quarterly net income of $22.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of 6% versus $21.5 million for the third quarter of 2019. Diluted earnings per share increased 7% to $0.89 for the third quarter of 2020, versus $0.83 for the third quarter of 2019. This quarterly net income and earnings per share performance both represent quarterly records for the company and its shareholders. On a linked quarter basis, net income increased $3.1 million, or 16%, from the second quarter of 2020, in which the company had net income of $19.7 million, or $0.77, diluted earnings per share. Pretax pre-provision earnings^1^ were $29.9 million for the third quarter of 2020, an increase of 8%, or $2.3 million, from $27.6 million for the third quarter of 2019. On a linked quarter basis, pretax pre-provision earnings increased 1%, or $285,000, from $29.6 million for the second quarter of 2020.
The company further reported net income of $59.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 versus $64.8 million for the comparable period of 2019, a decrease of $5.1 million, or 8%. Diluted earnings per share also decreased 8% to $2.33 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 versus $2.52 for the comparable period of 2019. Pretax pre-provision earnings^1^ were $87.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, versus $82.7 million for the comparable period of 2019, an increase of 5%, or $4.3 million.
David M. Findlay, President and Chief Executive Officer commented, “The Lake City Bank team is particularly proud of this record quarterly performance in a very tumultuous environment. We’ve remained focused, despite the negative impact of the COVID-19 crisis, on taking care of our clients and our communities. Thanks to strong performances from our Commercial Banking, Wealth Advisory and Retail Banking teams, we weathered the third quarter challenges well.”

Return on average total equity for the third quarter of 2020 was 14.36%, compared to 14.78% in the third quarter of 2019 and 12.92% in the linked second quarter of 2020. Return on average total equity for the first nine months of 2020 was 12.96%, compared to 15.68% in the same period of 2019. Return on average assets for the third quarter of 2020 was 1.64%, compared to 1.72% in the third quarter of 2019 and 1.45% in the linked second quarter of 2020. Return on average assets for the first nine months of 2020 was 1.50% compared to 1.76% in the same period of 2019. The company’s total capital as a percent of risk-weighted assets was 14.90% at September 30, 2020, compared to 14.78% at September 30, 2019 and 14.93% at June 30, 2020. The company’s tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio^1^ was 11.41% at September 30, 2020, compared to 11.74% at September 30, 2019 and 11.35% at June 30, 2020.
Findlay added, “Our operating performance during the quarter further strengthens our fortress balance sheet, and we believe it provides ample capacity to support our dividend to shareholders. “
As announced on October 13, 2020, the board of directors approved a cash dividend for the third quarter of $0.30 per share, payable on November 5, 2020, to shareholders of record as of October 25, 2020. The third quarter dividend per share of $0.30 is unchanged from the dividend per share paid in the second quarter of 2020.
During the first quarter of 2020, the company repurchased 289,101 shares of its common stock for $10 million at a weighted average price per share of $34.63. Share repurchases under the repurchase plan were suspended in March with $20 million of authorization remaining available under the plan. No shares were repurchased under the plan during the second or third quarters of 2020. The company continues to evaluate the share repurchase program pursuant to its previously established criteria for execution.

Average total loans for the third quarter of 2020 were $4.56 billion, an increase of $541.0 million, or 13%, versus $4.02 billion for the third quarter 2019. PPP average loans were $557.3 million during the third quarter 2020. Excluding PPP loans, average loans were $4.00 billion compared to $4.02 billion for the third quarter of 2019, a decrease of $16.3 million. On a linked quarter basis, average total loans grew $96.4 million, or 2%, from $4.46 billion for the second quarter of 2020. Average loans excluding PPP loans decreased by $3.1 million, on a linked quarter basis.
Total loans outstanding grew $566.7 million, or 14%, from $4.02 billion as of September 30, 2019 to $4.59 billion as of September 30, 2020. PPP loans outstanding were $557.9 million as of September 30, 2020. Total loans excluding PPP loans increased by $8.9 million, as of September 30, 2020 as compared to September 30, 2019. On a linked quarter basis, total loans excluding PPP loans were $4.0 billion, an increase of $96.2 million, or 2%, as of September 30, 2020 as compared to the second quarter of 2020.
Findlay observed, “The Paycheck Protection Program has been beneficial for our clients on multiple levels. It has strengthened our borrowers’ balance sheets and improved their operating performance. Further, It has provided a valuable cash injection for all of our clients who participated in the program. Yet, in conjunction with the uncertain economic conditions, it has contributed to a reduction in usage of available credit facilities by clients. Given these factors, we are very pleased with nearly $100 million of loan growth in the third quarter.”
The Small Business Administration (SBA) and the United States Treasury Department formally announced the PPP on March 31, 2020 as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the CARES Act). During the third quarter 2020, $3.2 million of additional PPP loans were funded representing 122 loan applications. The yield on all PPP loans was 2.35% for the third quarter of 2020, which reflects the combined impact of the 1.00% interest rate on PPP loans and net PPP loan fee accretion.
Findlay continued, “We have shifted from our focus on PPP loan originations during the second quarter to preparation for PPP loan forgiveness applications in the third quarter. We stand ready to support our PPP borrowers through this next step in the process. Unfortunately, the process is a burdensome one for many of our clients and we will continue to work with them to expedite these applications.”
Average total deposits were $4.74 billion for the third quarter of 2020, an increase of $470.0 million, or 11%, versus $4.27 billion for the third quarter of 2019. On a linked quarter basis, average total deposits increased by $40.8 million, or 1%. Total deposits grew $484.6 million, or 11%, from $4.28 billion as of September 30, 2019 to $4.77 billion as of September 30, 2020. On a linked quarter basis, total deposits increased by $124.5 million, or 3%, from $4.64 billion as of June 30, 2020.
Importantly, core deposits, which exclude brokered deposits, increased $571.6 million, or 14%, from $4.17 billion at September 30, 2019 to $4.74 billion at September 30, 2020 due to growth in commercial deposits of $496.5 million or 38% and growth in retail deposits of $144.4 million, or 9%, offset by decreases in public fund deposits of $69.3 million, or 5%. On a linked quarter basis core deposits increased by $122.9 million or 3% at September 30, 2020 as compared to June 30, 2020. PPP loan proceeds to borrowers continued to impact the increase in deposits during the quarter as loan proceeds were deposited into borrower checking accounts at the bank. Management expects demand deposit balances to decrease over time as PPP loan proceeds are deployed by borrowers for payroll and other business operating needs.

The company’s net interest margin decreased 33 basis points to 3.05% for the third quarter of 2020 compared to 3.38% for the third quarter of 2019. The lower margin in the third quarter of 2020 as compared to the prior year period was due to lower yields on loans and securities, partially offset by a lower cost of funds, driven by the Federal Reserve Bank decreasing the target Federal Funds Rate by 225 basis points since the second half of 2019, inclusive of two Federal Reserve Bank emergency cuts to the Federal Funds Rate during March 2020. The two emergency cuts reduced the Federal Funds Rate by 150 basis points and brought the Federal Funds Rate back to the zero-bound range of 0.00% to 0.25%. The third quarter net interest margin was impacted by the lower yield on the PPP loan portfolio. The company’s net interest margin excluding PPP loans^1^ was 12 basis points higher at 3.17% and reflects a 21 basis point decline from 3.38% the third quarter of 2019. Linked quarter net interest margin excluding PPP loans was unchanged at 3.17% for the second and third quarters of 2020. Earning asset yields declined by 11 basis points and cost of funds declined by 11 basis points, as well.
Net interest income increased by $368,000, or 1%, for the three months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019. On a linked quarter basis, net interest income increased $385,000, or 1%, from the second quarter of 2020.
For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the company’s net interest margin decreased 24 basis points to 3.16% compared to 3.40% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The company’s net interest margin excluding PPP loans^1^ was 3.22% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, which was 18 basis points lower than net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Net interest income increased by $2.1 million, or 2%, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 as compared to the first nine months of 2019 due to significant loan and core deposit growth offset by margin compression.
Pursuant to the incurred loan loss methodology, the company recorded a provision for loan losses of $1.8 million in the third quarter of 2020, compared to $1.0 million in the third quarter of 2019, an increase of $750,000. On a linked quarter basis, the provision decreased by $3.8 million from $5.5 million in the second quarter of 2020. The company recorded a provision for loan losses of $13.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $3.0 million for the comparable period of 2019. The higher provision in 2020 was driven by the potential negative impact to the company’s borrowers as a result of the economic conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The company’s loan loss reserve to total loans was 1.32% at September 30, 2020 versus 1.26% at September 30, 2019 and 1.31% at June 30, 2020. The company’s loan loss reserve to total loans excluding PPP loans^1^ was 1.51% at September 30, 2020 an increase from 1.26% at September 30, 2019 and 1.50% at June 30, 2020. PPP loans are guaranteed by the United States SBA and have not been allocated for within the allowance for loan losses. As permitted by the CARES Act, the company elected to defer its application of FASB’s new rule covering the Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) standard. The company will continue to monitor developments related to CECL adoption and anticipates adopting the standard during the fourth quarter of 2020. The CECL Day 1 impact is estimated to result in a $7.7 million increase to the allowance for credit losses.
Net charge offs in the third quarter of 2020 were $23,000 versus net charge-offs of $936,000 in the third quarter of 2019 and net charge offs of $90,000 during the linked second quarter of 2020. Annualized net charge offs to average loans were 0.00% for the third quarter of 2020 versus 0.09% for the third quarter of 2019, and 0.01% for the linked second quarter of 2020. On a year-to-date basis, net charge offs to average loans were 0.12% compared to 0.03% for both the first nine months of 2020 and the first nine months of 2019.

Nonperforming assets decreased $5.5 million, or 28%, to $13.8 million as of September 30, 2020 versus $19.3 million as of September 30, 2019. On a linked quarter basis, nonperforming assets decreased $1.3 million, or 9%, versus the $15.1 million reported as of June 30, 2020. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets at September 30, 2020 decreased to 0.25% from 0.39% at September 30, 2019 and decreased from 0.28% at June 30, 2020 on a linked quarter basis. Total impaired and watch list loans increased by $18.5 million, or 9%, to $221.3 million at September 30, 2020 versus $202.8 million as of September 30, 2019. On a linked quarter basis, total impaired and watch list loans increased by $13.1 million, or 6%, from $208.2 million at June 30, 2020. The increase in total impaired and watch list loans was due primarily to an increase in non-impaired watch list credits. Impaired watch list loans decreased by $5.6 million, or 20%, to $22.5 million at September 30, 2020 versus September 30, 2019. On a linked quarter basis, impaired watch list loans decreased by $1.5 million, or 6%, from $24.0 million at June 30, 2020 due primarily to a reduction in loans outstanding.
“We are in an interesting environment from an asset quality perspective. Our relatively stable asset quality metrics reflect our confidence in the status of our borrowers, but we continue to be concerned about the uncertainty in the future. We will continue to monitor closely those sectors that appear to be most impacted by this crisis, as well as our broader watch list. Many of our borrowers continue to face difficult operating environments and while we are cautiously optimistic today, this recession could present future asset quality issues,” Findlay said. “We will likely implement the CECL allowance for credit losses standard in the fourth quarter of 2020 and we expect that this implementation will further augment our healthy allowance coverage ratios.”
The company’s noninterest income increased $2.4 million, or 22%, to $13.1 million for the third quarter of 2020, compared to $10.8 million for the third quarter of 2019. Noninterest income was positively impacted by a $2.1 million increase in interest rate swap fee income, a $369,000 increase, or 58% growth, in mortgage banking income and a $194,000 increase, or 11% growth, in wealth management fees over the prior year third quarter. Bank owned life insurance income increased $417,000, or 81%, primarily due to a variable bank owned life insurance product that contains equity-based investments. Net securities gains increased $308,000 due to repositioning of the available-for-sale securities portfolio. Offsetting these increases were decreases of $1.2 million, or 32%, in service charges on deposit accounts driven by lower treasury management fees and lower transaction-based fees. Overdraft fee income, which is included in service charges on deposit accounts, declined by $344,000, or 36%, during the third quarter as compared to the prior year third quarter.
Noninterest income increased by $1.9 million, or 17%, on a linked quarter basis to $13.1 million. The linked quarter increase resulted primarily from an increase in interest rate swap fee income of $834,000 as well as increases in service charges on deposit accounts of $302,000 due primarily to increased overdraft fees. Offsetting these increases was a $349,000 decline in mortgage banking income during the quarter.

The company’s noninterest income increased $1.2 million, or 3%, to $35.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $33.9 million in the prior year period. Noninterest income was positively impacted by a $3.3 million increase, or 385% growth, in swap fee income generated from commercial lending transactions, a $1.7 million increase, or 134%, growth in mortgage banking income, and a $592,000 increase, or 12% growth, in wealth management fees over the corresponding prior year period. The credit valuation adjustments on interest rate swaps, which is included in other income, increased noninterest income by $1.2 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the corresponding prior year period. Noninterest income was negatively impacted by a $5.3 million, or 42%, decrease in service charges on deposit accounts. Service charges on deposit accounts for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, included $4.5 million of fees from a former commercial treasury management customer.
Findlay commented, “Our teams in Mortgage Banking, Wealth Advisory and Commercial Banking have all experienced healthy growth in fee-based services in 2020. We are particularly pleased with our interest rate swap fee income as it reflects a strong partnership between our Commercial Banking and Treasury units. In a difficult interest rate environment, overall fee generation has been a nice offset to net interest margin compression.”
The company’s noninterest expense increased $388,000, or 2%, to $23.1 million in the third quarter of 2020, compared to $22.7 million in the third quarter of 2019. FDIC insurance and regulatory fees increased $803,000 as all FDIC deposit insurance credits due to the company were received by the end of the first quarter of 2020. Data processing fees increased $405,000, or 15%, driven by the company’s continued investment in customer focused, technology-based solutions and ongoing cybersecurity and data management enhancements. Offsetting these increases were decreases in corporate and business development of $413,000, or 41%, due to reduced business development and training expense, which is deemed temporary due to the pandemic.
On a linked quarter basis, noninterest expense increased by $2.0 million, or 10%, to $23.1 million. Salaries and employee benefits increased by $1.3 million due primarily to reduced deferred loan origination costs and increased health insurance expense. During the third quarter of 2020, deferred loan origination costs of $467,000 decreased from $889,000 on a linked quarter basis. Other expense increased by $407,000 on a linked quarter basis due primarily to the semi-annual payment of Board of Director fees that are paid in January and July of each year. In addition, professional fees increased by $253,000 due primarily to legal and project implementation fees.
The company’s noninterest expense decreased by $1.0 million, or 2%, to $66.3 million in the first nine months of 2020 compared to $67.3 million in the corresponding prior year period. The decrease was driven by corporate and business development, which decreased $1.1 million, or 31%, due to reduced business development and training expense. Salaries and employee benefits decreased by $843,000, or 2%, primarily due to lower long-term incentive-based compensation expense. Offsetting the decreases were increases of $1.1 million, or 15%, in data processing fees and supplies. In addition, FDIC insurance and other regulatory fees increased $658,000, or 116%, as insurance assessment credits have expired.
The company’s efficiency ratio was 43.6% for the third quarter of 2020, compared to 45.2% for the third quarter of 2019 and 41.6% for the linked second quarter of 2020. The company’s efficiency ratio decreased to 43.2% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to 44.9% in the prior year period due to revenue growth outpacing expense growth during 2020.

COVID-19 Crisis Management
The company reopened all its branch lobbies on June 15, 2020. During the third quarter most of all company employees returned to the workplace in a Lake City Bank facility. The company invested in personal protective equipment, installed protective barriers and enhanced social distancing measures in order to prioritize the safety of bank customers and employees. These investments have totaled approximately $500,000 since the pandemic began. The company will keep all safety protocols in place until it determines that the public health risks posed by COVID-19 no longer require them.
Active Management of Credit Risk
The company’s Commercial Banking and Credit Administration leadership continues to review and refine the list of industries that the company believes are most likely to be materially impacted by the potential economic impact resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The current assessment includes a smaller group of industries as compared to the initial list of potentially affected industries disclosed in the company’s April 27, 2020 first quarter and July 27, 2020 second quarter press releases. The company’s current list of industries under review represents approximately 5.7%, or $228 million, of the total loan portfolio versus $765 million, or 18.7%, as of April 27, 2020 and $261 million, or 6.6% as of July 27, 2020, excluding PPP loans. The following industries are included in the 5.7% along with their respective percentage of the loan portfolio: hotel and accommodations – 2.5%, dairy – 1.1%, education – 0.9%, entertainment and recreation – 0.8% and full-service restaurants – 0.4%. The company has no direct exposure to oil and gas and limited exposure to retail shopping centers.
The company’s commercial loan portfolio is highly diversified, and no industry sector represents more than 8% of the bank’s loan portfolio as of September 30, 2020. Agri-business and agricultural loans represented the highest specific industry concentration at 7% of total loans. The company’s Commercial Banking and Credit Administration teams continue to actively work with customers to understand their business challenges and credit needs during this time.
COVID-19 Related Loan Deferrals
As detailed below, loan deferrals peaked on June 17, 2020, at $737 million, which represented 16% of the total loan portfolio. As of October 21, 2020, total deferrals attributable to COVID-19 were $110 million, representing 63 borrowers, or 2% of the total loan portfolio. Total deferrals as of October 21, 2020 represented a decline in deferral balances of 85% from the peak levels. Of the $110 million, 37 were commercial loan borrowers representing $107 million in loans, or 3% of total commercial loans and 26 were retail loan borrowers representing $3 million, or 1% of total retail loans. All COVID-19 related loan deferrals remain on accrual status, as each deferral is evaluated individually, and management has determined that all contractual cashflows are collectable at this time.
As of October 21, 2020, 38 borrowers with loans outstanding of $70 million were in their second deferral period, most of which were additional 90 day deferrals. Additionally, 17 borrowers with loans outstanding of $32 million were in their third deferral period. Of the third deferral borrowers, four represented 87% of the third deferral population and were commercial real estate nonowner occupied loans supported by adequate collateral and personal guarantors and consist of loans to the hotel and accommodation industry.

Paycheck Protection Program
During the third quarter, the company continued to fund PPP loans for its customers. In addition, the bank has engaged a third-party Fintech technology partner to assist the bank and its customers to automate the forgiveness application process. The software solution provides tools to facilitate communications with borrowers, gathering of information securely, calculation of forgiveness amounts and electronic transmission to the SBA for approval. The company is utilizing a phased approach for the forgiveness application process and has begun to process forgiveness applications for borrowers. As of October 21, 2020, Lake City Bank had 2,409 PPP loans outstanding representing $561.8 million in loan balances. Most of the PPP loans are for existing customers and 51% of the number of PPP loans are for amounts less than $50,000. As of October 21, 2020, the bank submitted 36 loan forgiveness applications to the SBA in the amount of $51 million, which represented 9% of total PPP loans outstanding. The SBA has not yet approved any forgiveness applications submitted by the bank.

The company has a long-standing liquidity plan in place that ensures that appropriate liquidity resources are available to fund the balance sheet.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The allowance for loan losses to loans, excluding PPP loans and total impaired and watch list loans to total loans, excluding PPP loans are non-GAAP ratios that management believes are important because they provide better comparability to prior periods. PPP loans are fully guaranteed by the SBA and have not been allocated for within the allowance for loan losses.
A reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures is provided below (dollars in thousands).

Tangible common equity, tangible assets, tangible book value per share, tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio and pre-provision net revenue are non-GAAP financial measures calculated using GAAP amounts. Tangible common equity is calculated by excluding the balance of goodwill and other intangible assets from the calculation of equity, net of deferred tax. Tangible assets are calculated by excluding the balance of goodwill and other intangible assets from the calculation of total assets, net of deferred tax. Tangible book value per share is calculated by dividing tangible common equity by the number of shares outstanding less true treasury stock. Pretax pre-provision earnings is calculated by adding net interest income to noninterest income and subtracting noninterest expense. Because not all companies use the same calculation of tangible common equity and tangible assets, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures calculated by other companies. However, management considers these measures of the company’s value including only earning assets as meaningful to an understanding of the company’s financial information.
A reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures is provided below (dollars in thousands, except per share data).

Net interest margin on a fully-tax equivalent basis, net of PPP loan impact, is a non-GAAP measure that management believes is important because it provides for better comparability to prior periods. Because PPP loans have a low fixed interest rate of 1.0% and because the accretion of net loan fee income can be accelerated upon borrower forgiveness and repayment by the SBA, management is actively monitoring net interest margin on a fully tax equivalent basis with and without PPP loan impact for the duration of this program.
A reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure is provided below (dollars in thousands).
