This compares to net income to common shareholders of $41 million, or $0.24 per common share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2012.

  • Capital ratios remain very strong with a Tier 1 common equity ratio of 11.64%

Loans

Average loans of $15.4 billion increased by $317 million, or 2% from the fourth quarter and increased $1.1 billion, or 8%, from the year ago quarter.

Period end first quarter loans of $15.6 billion were up $141 million, or 1%, from $15.4 billion at December 31, 2012 and up $1.3 billion, or 9%, from $14.3 billion a year ago.  Commercial and business lending balances increased by $123 million, or 2% from the prior quarter.  Commercial real estate lending balances grew by $67 million, or 2% on a linked-quarter basis.  The residential mortgage portfolio grew by $91 million, or 3%, during the quarter while the retail portfolio, which includes home equity and installment loan balances, experienced net run-off of $140 million, or 5%, during the quarter.

Deposits

Average deposits of $17.1 billion were up $496 million, or 3%, compared to the fourth quarter and increased by $2.1 billion, or 14%, from the year ago quarter. 

Period end first quarter deposits of $17.4 billion were up $481 million, or 3%, compared to fourth quarter levels.  The net deposit growth during the quarter was driven by increases of $412 million, or 16%, in interest bearing demand deposits and $319 million, or 5%, in money market deposits.  This was mainly offset by a decrease of $306 million in noninterest bearing demand deposit balances.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

First quarter net interest income of $158 million was 2% lower compared to the prior quarter but up 2% compared to the year-ago quarter.  The $4 million decline in interest and fees on loans from the prior quarter is primarily attributable to two less days of accrual during the respective period ($2 million) and $1 million in lower interest recoveries.  The fourth quarter of 2012 also included $2 million of interest income received on a tax refund.

First quarter net interest margin was 3.17%, a decrease of 15 basis points from the 3.32% reported in the fourth quarter and a 9 basis point decrease from the 3.26% reported in the third quarter of 2012.  The decrease from the fourth quarter of 2012 was mainly due to a 15 basis point decline in loan yields.  Both commercial and consumer loan yields saw compression during the period.  This compression was partially offset by 6 basis points of liability cost management actions.  In addition, the fourth quarter 2012 net interest margin included a 3 basis point benefit related to interest received relating to the tax refund.

Noninterest Income and Expense

Noninterest income for the quarter was $82 million, up $4 million, or 5%, from the fourth quarter.  The improvement was primarily due to an increase in mortgage banking income, up $4 million, reflecting continued strong margins and reduced mortgage servicing rights expense.

Total noninterest expense for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 was $167 million, down $9 million, or 5%, from the fourth quarter.  Personnel expense was flat to the prior quarter as lower salary expenses were offset by the seasonal effect of higher payroll taxes.  Full-time equivalent (FTE) employee counts were at their lowest levels since mid-2010.  Legal and professional expense decreased $3 million from the previous quarter, mainly reflecting lower professional fees relating to Bank Secrecy Act expenditures.  Occupancy expenses were down $2 million from the previous quarter, primarily from branch consolidation benefits.   In addition, losses other than loans were $3 million lower than the fourth quarter.

Credit

The Company reported another quarter of improving credit quality with nonaccrual loans down 11%, to $225 million compared to the fourth quarter, and down 31% from a year ago.  The ratio of nonaccrual loans to total loans now stands at 1.45% and has improved for the 12th consecutive quarter.

Net charge offs of $14 million for the first quarter were down $6 million from the fourth quarter, and were $7 million lower than a year ago. 

First quarter provision for loan losses was $4 million compared to $3 million in the fourth quarter 2012.  The Company's allowance for loan losses was $287 million, representing an allowance equal to 1.84% of loans and representing a coverage ratio of over 127% of nonaccrual loans at March 31, 2013.

Capital Ratios

The Company's capital position remains very strong, with a Tier 1 common equity ratio of 11.64% at March 31, 2013.  The Company's capital ratios continue to be well in excess of both current and proposed "well-capitalized" regulatory benchmarks.
