Glenville, New York –October 23, 2023

TrustCo Bank Corp NY (TrustCo, NASDAQ: TRST) today announced third quarter 2023 net income of $14.7 million, or $0.77 diluted earnings per share, compared to net income of $16.4 million, or $0.86 diluted earnings per share, for the second quarter 2023; and compared to net income of $19.4 million, or $1.01 diluted earnings per share, for the third quarter 2022; and net income of $48.8 million, or $2.57 diluted earnings per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, compared to net income of $54.3 million, or $2.84 diluted earnings per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.  Total loan growth increased $330.8 million, or 7.1% for the third quarter 2023 over the same period in 2022.

Overview

Chairman, President, and CEO, Robert J. McCormick said “Our strength, in large measure, is characterized by our credit quality.  Solid underwriting and the avoidance of irresponsible lending have long been part of the fabric of our company, and we recently have had seven consecutive quarters of net loan recoveries.  We have leveraged strong customer relationships to foster organic loan portfolio growth and retain deposits despite competitive pressure on pricing. We are realizing the benefits of our long-term capital preservation strategy, avoiding the pitfalls of low-return investments that have plagued others.  Liquidity management continues to be an acute focus, and our capital ratio results this quarter exemplify those efforts. Other TrustCo hallmarks continue to serve us well – we are debt free and extremely well-capitalized. While we can’t predict the future, no matter what the rate environment, we stand ready to capitalize on opportunities.”

TrustCo saw deposit balances rebound from the end of the prior year with net deposit inflows during the first nine months of 2023.  Loan growth continued across all categories in the third quarter 2023 compared to the prior year’s third quarter, led by an increase in residential mortgages. Loan portfolio expansion was funded by a combination of utilizing a portion of our strong cash balances and by cash flow from investments, deposit inflows, and cash flow from the existing loan portfolio.  The Federal Reserve’s decision to raise the target Federal Funds rate multiple times since March 2022 has contributed to our results in the third quarter 2023, as our cash position and other variable rate products continue to reprice upward, and they are likely to continue to do so to the extent there are additional rate increases.  Accordingly, deposit costs continue to increase while we are also experiencing a shift in deposits to Time Deposits.  We continue to deploy strong marketing efforts to retain our deposit balances.  We also note that current mortgage rates significantly exceed the yield on our existing portfolio of mortgages, which, if sustained, should result in positive to net interest margin going forward.  TrustCo’s strong liquidity position continues to allow us to take advantage of opportunities as they arise.

Details

Average loans were up $337.6 million or 7.4% in the third quarter 2023 over the same period in 2022.  Average residential loans, our primary lending focus, were up $219.4 million, or 5.3%, in the third quarter 2023 over the same period in 2022.  Average commercial loans and home equity lines of credit also increased $53.6 million, or 25.8%, and $58.9 million, or 22.5%, respectively, in the third quarter 2023 over the same period in 2022.

We are actively retaining deposits, which is evident since they have increased since December 31, 2022.  Total deposits as of September 30, 2023 increased $41.6 million to $5.23 billion from December 31, 2022.  As we move forward, our objective is to continue to encourage customers to retain these funds in the expanded product offerings of the Bank through aggressive marketing and product differentiation.  We understood the big inflows of deposits during the pandemic were temporary and that is why we did not invest that liquidity into securities or loans, but we instead retained that liquidity on the balance sheet for when depositors would start to absorb the funds.  This gave us flexibility to strategically price deposits while retaining core customers.

Net interest income was $42.2 million for the third quarter 2023, a decrease of $5.6 million, or 11.7%, compared to the same period in 2022, driven by a higher cost of deposits, partially offset by the increased yield on the cash balance at the Federal Reserve Bank due to the increases in the Federal Funds target rate over the past year, and loan growth.  The net interest margin for the third quarter 2023 was 2.85%, down 31 basis points from 3.16% in the third quarter of 2022.  The yield on interest earnings assets increased to 3.88%, up 64 basis points from 3.24 % in the third quarter of 2022.  The cost of interest bearing liabilities increased to 1.33% in the third quarter 2023 from 0.11% in the third quarter 2022.

Asset quality remains strong and has been consistent over the past twelve months.  The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $100 thousand in the third quarter of 2023, which is the result of a provision for credit losses on loans of $300 thousand, offset by a benefit for credit losses on unfunded commitments of $200 thousand as a result of a corresponding decrease in unfunded loan commitments.  The ratio of allowance for credit losses on loans to total loans was 0.95% and 0.98% as of September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.  The allowance for credit losses on loans was $47.2 million at September 30, 2023, compared to $45.5 million at September 30, 2022.  NPLs were $17.9 million at September 30, 2023, compared to $18.7 million at September 30, 2022.  NPLs were 0.36% and 0.40% of total loans at September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.  The coverage ratio, or allowance for credit losses on loans to NPLs, was 264.2% at September 30, 2023, compared to 243.6% at September 30, 2022.  Nonperforming assets (NPAs) were $19.1 million at September 30, 2023, compared to $19.4 million at September 30, 2022.  Additionally, we have also had minimal charge-offs and have been in a net recovery position for the past seven quarters.

At September 30, 2023, our equity to asset ratio was 10.31%, compared to 9.69% at September 30, 2022.  Book value per share at September 30, 2023 was $32.80, up 6.2% compared to $30.89 a year earlier.

A conference call to discuss third quarter 2023 results will be held at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time on October 24, 2023.  Those wishing to participate in the call may dial toll-free for the United States at 1-833-470-1428, and for Canada at 1-833-950-0062, Access code 040076.  A replay of the call will be available for thirty days by dialing toll-free for the United States and Canada at 1-866-813-9403, Access code 265872.  The call will also be audio webcast at https://events.q4inc.com/attendee/175259326 , and will be available for one year.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Reconciliation

Tangible equity as a percentage of tangible assets at period end is a non-GAAP financial measure derived from GAAP-based amounts. We calculate tangible equity and tangible assets by excluding the balance of intangible assets from total shareholders’ equity and total assets, respectively.  We calculate tangible equity as a percentage of tangible assets at period end by dividing tangible equity by tangible assets at period end.  We believe that this is consistent with the treatment by bank regulatory agencies, which exclude intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios.  Additionally, we believe that this measure is important to many investors in the marketplace who are interested in relative changes from period to period in equity and total assets, each exclusive of changes in intangible assets.

Net interest income is commonly presented on a taxable equivalent basis. That is, to the extent that some component of the institution’s net interest income will be exempt from taxation (e.g., was received by the institution as a result of its holdings of state or municipal obligations), an amount equal to the tax benefit derived from that component is added back to the net interest income total. Management considers this adjustment helpful to investors in comparing one financial institution’s net interest income (pre- tax) to that of another institution, as each will have a different proportion of tax-exempt items in their portfolios. Moreover, net interest income is itself a component of another financial measure commonly used by financial institutions, net interest margin, which is the ratio of net interest income to average interest earning assets.  Additionally, management and many financial institutions also present net interest spread, which is the average yield on interest earning assets minus the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities. For purposes of these measures as well, taxable equivalent net interest income is generally used by financial institutions, again to provide investors with a better basis of comparison from institution to institution. We calculate taxable equivalent net interest margin by dividing net interest income, adjusted to include the benefit of non-taxable interest income, by average interest earning assets.  We calculate taxable equivalent net interest spread as the difference between average yield on interest earning assets, adjusted to include the benefit of non-taxable interest income, and the average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities.

The efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP measure of expense control relative to revenue from net interest income and non-interest fee income.  We calculate the efficiency ratio by dividing total noninterest expenses as determined under GAAP, excluding other real estate expense, net, by net interest income (fully taxable equivalent) and total noninterest income as determined under GAAP, excluding non-routine items from this calculation.  We believe that this provides a reasonable measure of primary banking expenses relative to primary banking revenue.  Additionally, we believe this measure is important to investors looking for a measure of efficiency in our productivity measured by the amount of revenue generated for each dollar spent.

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide information that is important to investors and that is useful in understanding our financial results. Our management internally assesses our performance based, in part, on these measures.  However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and not a substitute for an analysis based on GAAP measures. As other companies may use different calculations for these measures, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures of tangible equity as a percentage of tangible assets, and efficiency ratio to the most directly comparable GAAP measures is set forth below.  We have not presented a reconciliation of taxable equivalent net interest income, taxable equivalent net interest margin or taxable equivalent net interest spread to the most directly comparable GAAP measure, as there was no difference between the taxable equivalent measure and comparable GAAP measure for any period presented in this release.
