Wilmington Trust Announces 2009 Second Quarter Results

Wilmington Trust Corporation (NYSE:WL) reported a loss of $9.1 million, or $0.20 per common share, for the second quarter of 2009. This was caused primarily by securities losses of $23.4 million on pooled trust-preferred investment securities (TruPS). On an after-tax-basis, this impairment reduced earnings by approximately $0.26 per common share.

On an operating basis (excluding the securities impairment), net income for the 2009 second quarter was $8.8 million, and earnings per common share were $0.06. The financial statements in this release contain comparisons of reported results (including the write-down) and operating results (excluding the write-down). Management believes that operating results provide a more relevant and comparative basis on which to evaluate the company’s performance.

Two other factors reduced earnings:

• An increase in the provision for loan losses, which rose to $54.0 million from $29.5 million for the 2009 first quarter. This increase was driven by higher levels of nonperforming assets and net charge-offs, and downgrades in the internal risk rating analysis, as economic conditions in the mid-Atlantic region remained unsettled.
• A special assessment, levied by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) on all banks, of $5.3 million. Absent this assessment, noninterest expense for the 2009 second quarter would have been 3% lower than for the first quarter.

"Our Corporate Client Services and Wealth Advisory Services businesses performed very well, and our net interest margin improved significantly,” said Ted T. Cecala, Wilmington Trust chairman and chief executive officer. "Unfortunately, the recession continued to put stress on some of our borrowers and on some of the underlying issuers in the pooled trust-preferred securities in our investment portfolio.”

The company’s capital position remained strong, both including and excluding the $330 million in Capital Purchase Program funds the company received in December 2008 in exchange for issuing shares of Wilmington Trust Series A preferred stock to the U.S. Department of the Treasury. All regulatory capital ratios continued to exceed the amounts required by the Federal Reserve Board to be considered well capitalized.

Other key factors in 2009 second quarter results were:

• A net interest margin of 3.16%. This was 25 basis points higher than for the 2009 first quarter, as market interest rates remained stable and pricing adjustments on the cost of funds matched the adjustments that occurred in the 2009 first quarter on loans and other earning assets.
• $41.3 million of revenue from Corporate Client Services. This was 30% higher than for the year-ago second quarter, and 5% higher than for the first quarter of 2009. Retirement services revenue accounted for most of the year-over-year growth. Revenue from bankruptcy and distressed transaction services accounted for much of the linked-quarter increase.
• $47.1 million of revenue from Wealth Advisory Services (WAS). This was lower than for prior periods, as market conditions reduced fee revenue and masked the continuing positive momentum in WAS business development.
• Total loan balances of $9.40 billion, on average. This was 3% higher than for the year-ago second quarter, but 1% lower than for the 2009 first quarter. Commercial loan balances increased, while consumer loan balances decreased, due to repayments and lower demand.
• Total assets of $11.42 billion, on average, which was lower than for prior periods. The majority of this decrease was due to sales of securities in the investment portfolio.
• Record-high core deposits of $6.60 billion, on average. This was 24% higher than average balances for the year-ago second quarter, and 12% higher than for the 2009 first quarter. The increase illustrated client preference for the safety of insured funds over low-yielding investment opportunities.

On July 22, 2009, the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.01 per common share. This was a reduction from the $0.1725 per common share dividend declared for the 2009 first quarter and 2008 fourth quarter. The dividend will be paid on August 17, 2009, to shareholders of record on August 3, 2009.

"This difficult decision stems from our desire to act with an abundance of caution during this period of economic uncertainty. While conditions seem to have stabilized, improvements have not occurred as rapidly as we had anticipated at the end of the first quarter,” said Mr. Cecala. "Since it is difficult to predict how quickly the recovery might occur, we are taking a conservative approach to capital management in order to have flexibility in a dynamic environment and to hasten our exit from the U.S. Treasury’s Capital Purchase Program.”

Corporate Client Services (CCS)

CCS revenue totaled $41.3 million for the 2009 second quarter. This was 30% higher than for the year-ago second quarter, and 5% higher than for the first quarter of 2009.

Retirement services revenue accounted for almost all of the year-over-year increase, reflecting the two acquisitions completed in 2008. The larger of these acquisitions closed on April 30, 2008, and results for the 2008 second quarter included two months of revenue from this acquisition.

Revenue from CCS capital markets services was $12.8 million, up 5% from the year-ago second quarter, and 11% higher than for the 2009 first quarter. Most of this growth was due to high volumes of successor loan agency business and bankruptcy and default administration business. Wilmington Trust was named successor trustee and appointed to the creditors’ committee on five major bankruptcies during the 2009 second quarter, including those of General Motors Corporation, General Growth Properties, and AbitibiBowater Inc.

Entity management revenue was $8.3 million. Demand for successor loan agency services in Europe, tax services, and captive insurance management services accounted for most of the 5% increase from the 2009 first quarter. Foreign currency fluctuations were the primary cause of the slight decline from the year-ago second quarter.

Revenue from institutional investment and cash management services, which can fluctuate from period to period depending on client demand and business volumes, was $3.6 million. This was 6% more than for the year-ago second quarter, and 8% lower than for the 2009 first quarter.

Wilmington Trust does not act as a creditor, unsecured or otherwise, in the transactions that CCS supports, including those associated with default, bankruptcy, loan agency, or other services. The company does not lend to, underwrite, price, structure, invest in, or consolidate these transactions or their financing structures, nor does it own any of the associated assets.

Wealth Advisory Services (WAS)

WAS revenue totaled $47.1 million for the 2009 second quarter, which was less than for the year-ago and linked quarters. WAS continued to develop business with new and existing clients, but these additions were offset by volatility in the equity markets. This volatility:

• Reduced asset valuations and the associated fees. Most WAS revenue is tied to asset valuations.
• Led to increased client preference for cash management and fixed income investments. In general, cash management and fixed income investment services are priced lower than other types of investment management services.

A comparison of year-over-year changes in revenue from WAS trust and investment advisory services and changes in the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index during the same period illustrates the strength of this business. Trust and investment advisory revenue was 21% lower than for the year-ago second quarter, while the 12-month decline in the S&P 500 was 28%.

Compared to the 2009 first quarter, WAS trust and investment advisory revenue increased 1%, while the S&P 500 rose 15% for the same period. The high demand for cash management and fixed income investment management services prevented this line of revenue from matching the pace of growth in the S&P 500.

WAS mutual fund revenue was lower than for prior periods because management opted to waive client fees, given low fund yields, in accordance with the funds’ voluntary waiver/reimbursement provisions.

Revenue from WAS planning and other services, which is not based on asset valuations, also decreased from prior periods. This was due mainly to a decrease in trading transactions after client asset allocations were rebalanced at the end of 2008.

Regional Banking

Total loan balances were $9.40 billion, on average. This was 3% higher than for the year-ago second quarter, and 1% lower than for the 2009 first quarter. Increases in commercial loan balances were offset somewhat by decreases in consumer loan balances.

Commercial loans accounted for 73% of the portfolio at period end, up from 69% at the end of the year-ago second quarter and 71% at the end of the 2009 first quarter. The company makes commercial loans throughout the mid-Atlantic region, but concentrates its consumer lending activities in the state of Delaware.

Commercial balances reached a record-high of $6.73 billion, on average. This was $469.9 million, or 8%, higher than for the year-ago second quarter, and $10.8 million more than for the 2009 first quarter.

Commercial mortgage balances accounted for the majority of the growth in the commercial portfolio, as changes in the credit markets continued to lessen the competitive advantages formerly held by specialty mortgage lenders. Most of the commercial mortgages added were for owner-occupied retail and professional office properties in Delaware and southeastern Pennsylvania.

On a period-end basis, nearly 50% of the year-to-date increase in commercial mortgage balances represented former commercial construction loans that refinanced on a longer-term basis.

Economic pressures in the mid-Atlantic region caused commercial, financial, and agricultural loan balances to decrease from the 2009 first quarter, and kept growth in commercial construction balances to a minimum.

Consumer loan balances were $1.61 billion, on average. This was 7% lower than for the year-ago second quarter, and 5% lower than for the 2009 first quarter. Increases in home equity balances were offset by decreases in indirect automobile loan balances.

In June 2009, management accelerated its long-standing practice of selling fixed rate residential mortgages into the secondary market. This caused residential mortgage balances to be much lower on a period-end basis than they were on an average-balance basis.

Wilmington Trust does not engage in subprime residential mortgage lending.

Credit quality

The economic downturn has not been as severe in the mid-Atlantic region as in some other parts of the United States, but unsettled conditions continued to challenge some borrowers. These pressures led to increases in the reserve and provision for loan losses, as net charge-offs and nonperforming asset levels rose from prior periods. In addition, downgrades in the internal risk rating analysis reduced the percentage of pass-rated loans. The majority of the downgraded loans were commercial construction and commercial mortgage loans.

At June 30, 2009, the reserve for loan losses was $184.9 million, and the loan loss reserve ratio was 2.02%. In comparison, at March 31, 2009, the reserve was $167.0 million, and the loan loss reserve ratio was 1.77%.

Comparing the 2009 second quarter with the 2009 first quarter:

• The provision for loan losses was $54.0 million, up from $29.5 million.
• Net charge-offs were $36.2 million, up from $21.2 million.
• Commercial loans accounted for all of the increase in net charge-offs. Net charge-offs of consumer and other retail loans were 31% lower.
• The net charge-off ratio was 0.39%, an increase of 17 basis points.
• Nonaccruing loans rose to $298.8 million from $230.1 million.
• Total nonperforming assets, including renegotiated loans and other real estate owned (OREO), increased to $330.3 million from $251.1 million.
• The nonperforming asset ratio rose to 3.59%, up from 2.66%.
• Loans past due 90 days or more (which are not included in nonperforming asset calculations) were $26.7 million, a decrease of $2.7 million.
• The ratio of loans past due 90 days or more was 0.29%, down from 0.31%.

Five commercial lending relationships accounted for most of the second quarter credit problems.

One commercial lending relationship accounted for the majority of the increase in net charge-offs, and for much of the increase in nonaccruing commercial construction loans. This relationship is with a mid-Atlantic-based developer of retirement communities.

Two other relationships accounted for most of the rest of the increase in commercial construction net charge-offs. These relationships are with residential developers who have projects in Delaware and Maryland.

One of these developers’ projects accounted for almost all of the second quarter increase in OREO, which was $8.5 million higher than for the 2009 first quarter. This project is a single- and multi-family residential project in Sussex County, Delaware, on which most of the site work is complete.

Two other relationships accounted for most of the increase in nonperforming loans. One of these is with a Delaware developer with income-producing retail and small office properties that are in various stages of completion. The other is with an automobile dealer with multiple dealerships selling General Motors and imported product.

The decline in loans past due 90 days or more occurred mainly in the consumer portfolio. Indirect auto loans accounted for the majority of this decrease, as well as for the majority of the decrease in net charge-offs of consumer and other retail loans.

Additional disclosures about credit quality are in the financial statement section of this release.

Net interest margin

The net interest margin improved to 3.16%. This was 25 basis points higher than for the 2009 first quarter, and 1 basis point lower than for the year-ago second quarter. These changes reflected the market interest rate environment and the company’s asset-sensitive interest rate risk position.

Most of the company’s floating rate loan pricing adjusts within 30 days of a change in market interest rates. Funding costs reprice over a longer period, typically 90 to 120 days. Market interest rates last changed in December 2008, when the Federal Open Market Committee reduced short-term rates to a range of 0.00% to 0.25%. Most of the floating rate loan repricing after this move was completed by the end of the 2009 first quarter, but most of the corresponding reduction in the cost of funds did not occur until the 2009 second quarter. Total funding costs fell 28 basis points in the 2009 second quarter, while the decrease in earning asset yields was only 3 basis points, which led to the higher margin.

Noninterest expense

Total noninterest expense was $128.4 million. This amount included the special FDIC insurance assessment of $5.3 million. Absent this assessment, which was levied on all banks, noninterest expense would have been $123.1 million, a 3% decrease from the 2009 first quarter.

There were 2,909 full-time-equivalent staff members at the end of the 2009 second quarter, 36 fewer than at the end of the first quarter. This reflected the closure of the collateralized debt obligation and conduit services business in the 2009 first quarter, and accounted for much of the decrease in salary and employment benefits expense.

Incentive and bonus expense was higher than for the 2009 first quarter, but more in line with prior periods, as amounts accrued were adjusted in the 2009 first quarter to reflect actual payments in 2008.

In the year-ago second quarter, noninterest expense included a goodwill impairment write-down of $66.9 million on the company’s investment in affiliate money manager Roxbury Capital Management. The quarterly and year-to-date income statements in this release show total noninterest expense (reported results) as well as total noninterest expense before the impairment (operating results).

On an operating basis, total noninterest expense for the 2009 second quarter was 6% higher than for the year-ago second quarter. The primary factors in the year-over-year increase in operating noninterest expense were the two CCS retirement services acquisitions completed in 2008, the larger of which closed on April 30, 2008. Results for the 2008 second quarter included only two months of employment, occupancy, and other expenses related to this acquisition.

Investment securities portfolio

The investment securities portfolio totaled $715.0 million, compared with $916.4 million at the end of the 2009 first quarter. Maturities of U.S. government agency securities accounted for most of this decrease.

At June 30, 2009, the portfolio included 38 pooled TruPS and 9 single-issue securities, which are recorded on the balance sheet in other securities. The pooled TruPS consist of securities issued by banks, insurance companies, and other financial institutions. The single-issue TruPS are from money center and large regional banks.

In the 2009 second quarter, 21 of the pooled TruPS were determined to be other-than-temporarily impaired (OTTI) under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, and the company recorded a $67.7 million write-down on the value of these securities.

Of this amount, $23.4 million was determined to be credit-related, as it represented reductions in estimated cash flows from the OTTI TruPS. Under new OTTI accounting rules, which the company adopted on April 1, 2009, the $23.4 million was recorded as a securities impairment (loss), which reduced 2009 second quarter net income by $17.9 million on an after-tax basis.

The remainder of the $67.7 million OTTI write-down was recorded in other comprehensive income, which reduced common stockholders’ equity by $28.4 million on an after-tax basis.

In the 2008 fourth quarter, 14 pooled TruPS were determined to be OTTI, and the company recorded an associated securities impairment of $97.0 million. In the 2009 first quarter, 1 pooled TruPS was determined to be OTTI, and the associated securities impairment was $0.6 million. Following the adoption of new OTTI accounting rules in April 2009, $70.1 million of those OTTI charges was reclassified from retained earnings to accumulated other comprehensive income. The portion of the 2008 fourth quarter and 2009 first quarter OTTI charges that was determined to be credit-related was $27.1 million. This amount remained in retained earnings.

At June 30, 2009, the amortized cost of the pooled TruPS portfolio was $175.6 million; its estimated fair value was $58.9 million; and its carrying value was $73.3 million.

None of the single-issue TruPS were OTTI at June 30, 2009.
