AMERICAN SAVINGS BANK REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2022 FINANCIAL RESULTS
3Q 2022 Net Income of $20.8 million
Continued Net Interest Margin Expansion, Strong Loan Growth and
Favorable Credit Trends
HONOLULU, Oct. 28, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- American Savings Bank, F.S.B. (ASB), a wholly owned subsidiary of Hawaiian Electric Industries, Inc. HE, today reported third quarter 2022 net income of $20.8 million, compared to $17.5 million in the second, or linked quarter of 2022 and $19.3 million in the third quarter of 2021.
"We are pleased with the bank's solid results for the third quarter and year to date," said Ann Teranishi, president and chief executive officer of ASB. "We again saw broad-based loan growth during the quarter, reflecting great work by our team along with the Hawaii economy's ongoing recovery from the pandemic. We continued to see positive credit trends despite the inflationary environment, and the rising interest rate environment continued to benefit our net interest margin and overall profitability," said Teranishi.
Financial Highlights
Third quarter 2022 net interest income of $65.7 million was up from $61.8 million in the linked quarter, and $60.3 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase versus the linked quarter reflected higher yields and balances across nearly the entire loan portfolio and higher yields in the investment securities portfolio, partially offset by higher funding costs and lower fee income associated with the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) portfolio as PPP loans continued to pay down. The increase versus the prior year quarter reflected higher average earning assets balances and higher yields, partially offset by lower PPP fee income. Net interest margin was 2.96% compared to 2.85% in the linked quarter, and 2.90% in the third quarter last year.
In the third quarter ASB recorded a negative provision for credit losses of $0.2 million compared to a provision for credit losses of $2.8 million in the linked quarter and a negative provision for credit losses of $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2021. The quarter's negative provision reflected continued favorable credit trends that led to the release of reserves, more than offsetting additional provisioning for loan growth. As of September 30, 2022, ASB's allowance for credit losses to outstanding loans was 1.24% compared to 1.28% as of June 30, 2022 and 1.48% as of September 30, 2021.
The net charge-off ratio for the third quarter of 2022 was 0.03%, compared to nil in the linked quarter and 0.03% in the third quarter of 2021. Nonaccrual loans as a percent of total loans receivable held for investment were 0.35% in the third quarter of 2022, compared to 0.40% in the linked quarter and 0.97% in the prior year quarter.
Noninterest income was $13.0 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $12.5 million in the linked quarter and $14.8 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase compared to the linked quarter was primarily due to an increase in fee income on deposit liabilities and higher bank-owned life insurance income. The decrease compared to the prior year quarter was primarily due to lower bank-owned life insurance income and lower mortgage banking income.
Noninterest expense was $51.6 million compared to $49.4 million in the linked quarter and $51.5 million in the third quarter of 2021. The increase in noninterest expense versus the linked quarter was primarily due to increased compensation and benefits expenses and higher services and occupancy costs. The increase in noninterest expense versus the same quarter last year was primarily due to higher services expenses and occupancy costs, with offsets from lower compensation and benefits expenses due to higher incentive compensation in 2021.
Total earning assets as of September 30, 2022 were $8.9 billion, up 4.7% from December 31, 2021.
Total loans were $5.7 billion as of September 30, 2022, up 9.3% from December 31, 2021, reflecting growth across nearly the entire portfolio year-to-date.
Total deposits were $8.3 billion as of September 30, 2022, an increase of 1.1% from December 31, 2021. For the third quarter of 2022, the average cost of funds was 0.13%, up 0.08% versus the linked quarter and up 0.07% versus the same quarter last year.
For the third quarter of 2022 return on average equity was 15.1% compared to 12.2% in the linked quarter and 10.3% in the third quarter of 2021. Return on average assets was 0.89% for the third quarter of 2022, compared to 0.76% in the linked quarter and 0.86% in the same quarter last year.
In the third quarter of 2022, ASB paid dividends of $5.0 million to HEI. ASB had a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 7.75% as of September 30, 2022.
