•Revenue of $667.1 million.
•Period end loan and lease balance of $51.1 billion, up $0.4 billion or 0.7 percent from prior quarter; consisting of 80.9 percent commercial loans and leases, 19.1 percent consumer loans, and a loan to deposit ratio of 84.1 percent.

Line of Business performance compared to the first quarter of 2023
Effective January 1, 2024, Webster realigned certain of its business banking operations and related accounts from Commercial Banking to Consumer Banking to deliver operational efficiencies and better serve its customers. As a result, $1.5 billion of loans and $2.2 billion of deposits were moved from Commercial Banking to Consumer Banking. Prior period results have been recast accordingly.
Commercial Banking
Webster’s Commercial Banking segment serves businesses that have more than $10 million of revenue through its regional banking, middle market, asset-based lending, equipment finance, commercial real estate, sponsor finance, private banking, and treasury services business units. At March 31, 2024, Commercial Banking had $39.9 billion in loans and leases and $16.1 billion in deposits, as well as a combined $3.0 billion in assets under administration and management.

Pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue decreased $25.2 million, to $270.0 million, in the quarter as compared to prior year. Net interest income decreased $18.4 million, to $341.9 million, primarily driven by lower deposit balances and higher rates paid on deposits. Non-interest income increased $0.6 million, to $34.3 million, primarily driven by increases in cash management fees and interest rate hedging activities, partially offset by lower net loan servicing income. Non-interest expense increased $7.4 million, to $106.2 million, primarily resulting from continued investments in talent, operational support, and technology to support balance sheet growth.
Healthcare Financial Services
Webster established a Healthcare Financial Services segment this quarter, which is comprised of HSA Bank and the newly acquired Ametros business. This segment offers consumer-directed healthcare solutions that include health savings accounts, health reimbursement arrangements, administration of medical insurance claim settlements, flexible spending accounts and commuter benefits. Accounts are distributed nationwide directly to employers and individual consumers, as well as through national and regional insurance carriers, benefit consultants, and financial advisors. At March 31, 2024, Healthcare Financial Services had $14.7 billion in total footings comprising $9.5 billion in deposits and $5.2 billion in assets under administration through linked investment accounts.

All values are in US Dollars.
Pre-tax net revenue increased $13.0 million, to $65.1 million, in the quarter as compared to prior year. The increase in pre-tax net revenue was partially attributable to the acquisition of Ametros in the quarter. Net interest income increased $14.4 million, to $86.1 million, primarily due to $5.7 million from Ametros and an increase in net deposit spread, and deposit growth at HSA Bank. Non-interest income increased $7.0 million, to $31.1 million, primarily due to $4.6 million from Ametros, as well as higher account fees and interchange fees at HSA Bank. Non-interest expense increased $8.4 million, to $52.1 million, primarily due to $7.3 million from Ametros, coupled with higher compensation and benefits expense, and service contract expense related to account growth at HSA Bank.
Consumer Banking
Webster's Consumer Banking segment serves consumer and business banking customers primarily throughout southern New England and the New York metro and suburban markets. Consumer Banking is comprised of the consumer lending and business banking business units, as well as a distribution network consisting of 196 banking centers and 347 ATMs, a customer care center, and a full range of web and mobile-based banking services. Additionally, Webster Investments provides investment services to consumers and small business owners within Webster's targeted markets and retail footprint. At March 31, 2024, Consumer Banking had $11.2 billion in loans and $26.9 billion in deposits, as well as $8.1 billion in assets under administration.

Pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue decreased $26.1 million, to $119.6 million, in the quarter as compared to prior year. Net interest income decreased $28.8 million, to $205.8 million, primarily driven by higher rates paid on deposits, partially offset by loan and deposit growth. Non-interest income increased $6.3 million, to $34.0 million, primarily driven by a net gain on sale of MSRs, partially offset by lower deposit service fees and loan related fees. Non-interest expense increased $3.6 million, to $120.1 million, primarily driven by higher compensation and operational support expenses, partially offset by decreases in technology costs and professional services expenses.
Consolidated financial performance:
Quarterly net interest income compared to the first quarter of 2023:
•Net interest income was $567.7 million compared to $595.3 million.
•Net interest margin was 3.35 percent compared to 3.66 percent. The yield on interest-earning assets increased by 51 basis points, and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased by 87 basis points.

•Average loans and leases totaled $50.9 billion and increased by $0.8 billion, or 1.7 percent.
•Average deposits totaled $60.6 billion and increased by $5.8 billion, or 10.5 percent.
Quarterly provision for credit losses:

The provision also contributed to a decrease in the reserve on unfunded loan commitments of $0.2 million. The provision for credit losses was $36.0 million in the prior quarter, and $46.7 million a year ago.
•Net charge-offs were $37.5 million, compared to $34.0 million in the prior quarter, and $24.5 million a year ago. The ratio of net charge-offs to average loans and leases was 0.29 percent, compared to 0.27 percent in the prior quarter, and 0.20 percent a year ago.

Excluding those items, total non-interest income increased $10.0 million. The increase is primarily attributable to the addition of Ametros and BOLI events.

•Income tax expense was $69.3 million compared to $65.8 million, and the effective tax rate was 24.3 percent compared to 23.0 percent.

Forward-looking statements are based on Webster's current expectations and assumptions regarding its business, the economy, and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks, and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. Webster’s actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements, which are neither statements of historical fact nor guarantees or assurances of future performance.

Any forward-looking statement made by Webster in this release speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause Webster's actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for Webster to predict all of them. Webster undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of net income, return on average tangible common stockholders' equity, and other performance ratios, in each case as adjusted, is included in the accompanying selected financial highlights table.
Webster believes that providing certain non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with information useful in understanding its financial performance, performance trends, and financial position. Webster utilizes these measures for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Webster, as well as securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties, also use these measures to compare peer company operating performance. Webster believes that its presentation and discussion, together with the accompanying reconciliations, provides additional clarity of factors and trends affecting its business and allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to management.
The efficiency ratio, which represents the costs expended to generate a dollar of revenue, is calculated excluding certain non-operational items. The return on average tangible common stockholders' equity (ROATCE) represents net income available to common stockholders, adjusted for the tax-effected amortization of intangible assets, as a percentage of average stockholders’ equity less average preferred stock and average goodwill and net intangible assets. The tangible equity ratio represents stockholders’ equity less goodwill and net intangible assets divided by total assets less goodwill and net intangible assets. The tangible common equity ratio represents stockholders’ equity less preferred stock and goodwill and net intangible assets divided by total assets less goodwill and net intangible assets. Tangible book value per common share represents stockholders’ equity less preferred stock and goodwill and net intangible assets divided by common shares outstanding at the end of the period. Core deposits reflect total deposits less certificates of deposit and brokered certificates of deposit. Adjusted pre-tax net income, adjusted net income available to common stockholders, adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS), adjusted ROATCE, and adjusted return on average assets (ROAA) are calculated excluding an FDIC special assessment estimate, Ametros acquisition expenses, loss on sale of investment securities, and net gain on sale of mortgage servicing rights, each of which have been tax-effected, and a discrete tax adjustment.
These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures and results, and Webster strongly encourages investors to review its consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.
Refer the tables on page 18 for Non-GAAP to GAAP reconciliations.
