BankUnited, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE: BKU) today announced financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2023.

"We finished the year with continued improvement on both sides of our balance sheet, expanding margin and strong credit performance. We are benefiting from a strong economy in our primary market and are looking forward to 2024 with great optimism," said Rajinder Singh, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.

For the quarter ended December 31, 2023, the Company reported net income of $20.8 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, compared to $47.0 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, for the immediately preceding quarter ended September 30, 2023 and $64.2 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company reported net income of $178.7 million, or $2.38 per diluted share, compared to $285.0 million, or $3.54 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2022. Results for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 were negatively impacted by $41.8 million of notable items impacting income before taxes, related to the FDIC special assessment and a loss on sale of operating lease equipment as detailed below.

Quarterly Highlights

  • Two notable items totaling $41.8 million impacted income before income taxes for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 (in thousands):

Loss on sale of operating lease equipment

The loss on sale of operating lease equipment of $6.5 million compares to a gain of $4.2 million on sale of operating lease equipment in the immediately preceding quarter, for a variance of $10.7 million.

  • We continued to execute on near-term strategic priorities this quarter:
    • The net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, expanded this quarter to 2.60% from 2.56% for the immediately preceding quarter.
    • Non-brokered deposits grew by $604 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. Total deposits grew by $426 million.
    • Non-interest bearing deposits declined by $521 million for the quarter, to 26% of total deposits at December 31, 2023, from 28% at September 30, 2023. On an average basis, non-interest bearing deposits were relatively flat to the prior quarter, declining by only $28.5 million. Most of the period-end decline was attributable to quarter-end outflows related to seasonality in the residential real estate sector, impacting our title solutions vertical and other mortgage related deposits.
    • Residential loans declined by $172 million for the quarter, while our core C&I and commercial real estate portfolios grew by a total of $476 million. Since December 31, 2022, residential loans have declined by $692 million.
    • The amortized cost of the investment securities portfolio declined by $106 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2023 and has declined by $959 million since December 31, 2022.
    • Wholesale funding, including FHLB advances and brokered deposits, declined by $228 million for the quarter. We have paid down FHLB advances by $2.4 billion since March 31, 2023.
    • Liquidity remains ample. Total same day available liquidity was $13.6 billion, the available liquidity to uninsured, uncollateralized deposits ratio was 152% and an estimated 66% of our deposits were insured or collateralized at December 31, 2023.
    • Our capital position is robust. At December 31, 2023, CET1 was 11.4% at a consolidated level. Pro-forma CET1, including accumulated other comprehensive income, was 10.0% at December 31, 2023. The ratio of tangible common equity/tangible assets increased to 7.0% at December 31, 2023.
  • For the quarter ended December 31, 2023, the provision for credit losses was $19.3 million compared to $33.0 million for the immediately preceding quarter. The ratio of the ACL to total loans increased to 0.82% at December 31, 2023, from 0.80% at September 30, 2023.
  • The net charge-off ratio for the year ended December 31, 2023 was 0.09%. NPAs remained low, totaling $130.6 million at December 31, 2023, down from $140.5 million at September 30, 2023. The NPA ratio at December 31, 2023 declined to 0.37%, including 0.12% related to the guaranteed portion of non-performing SBA loans, from 0.40%, including 0.11% related to the guaranteed portion of non-performing SBA loans at September 30, 2023.
  • As expected in the current macro-environment, the average cost of total deposits increased to 2.96% for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 from 2.74% for the immediately preceding quarter. This increase of 0.22% was smaller than the 0.28% increase in the cost of deposits for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, continuing the trend of a declining rate of increase in deposit costs. The yield on average interest earning assets increased to 5.70% for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 from 5.52% for the immediately preceding quarter.
  • Our commercial real estate exposure is modest. Commercial real estate loans totaled 23.6% of loans at December 31, 2023, representing 169% of the Bank's total risk based capital. At December 31, 2023, the weighted average LTV of the CRE portfolio was 56.0% and the weighted average DSCR was 1.80. 58% of the portfolio was secured by collateral properties located in Florida and 25% was secured by properties in the New York tri-state area.
  • We remain committed to keeping the duration of our securities portfolio short; the duration of the available for sale securities portfolio was 1.96 at December 31, 2023. Held to maturity securities were not significant.
  • The net unrealized pre-tax loss on the securities portfolio improved by $109 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, now representing 6% of amortized cost. AOCI improved by $50 million.
  • Book value and tangible book value per common share continued to grow, to $34.66 and $33.62, respectively, at December 31, 2023, compared to $33.92 and $32.88, respectively, at September 30, 2023 and $32.19 and $31.16, respectively, at December 31, 2022.

The increase in the substandard accruing category for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 included $74 million of C&I and $118 million of CRE. All of these loans are performing. The substantial majority of the increase was attributable to a small number of loans. Increasing operating costs, including insurance and interest costs, and higher vacancy rates for some office properties were contributing factors.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 was $217.2 million, compared to $214.8 million for the immediately preceding quarter ended September 30, 2023 and $243.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2022. Interest income increased by $12.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 compared to the immediately preceding quarter, while interest expense increased by $10.3 million.

The Company’s net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, increased by 0.04% to 2.60% for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, from 2.56% for the immediately preceding quarter ended September 30, 2023. Factors impacting the net interest margin for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 were:

  • The tax-equivalent yield on loans increased to 5.69% for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, from 5.54% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. This increase reflects the origination of new loans at higher rates, re-positioning of the portfolio and to a lesser extent, the resetting of variable rate loans to higher coupon rates.
  • The tax-equivalent yield on investment securities increased to 5.73% for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, from 5.48% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. Factors leading to this increase included the reset of coupon rates on variable rate securities and retrospective accounting adjustments related to prepayment speeds on certain securities.
  • The average cost of interest bearing deposits increased to 4.04% for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 from 3.76% for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, a continuing response to the higher interest rate environment.
  • The reduction in the proportion of total funding comprised of more expensive wholesale funding also contributed to the increase in the net interest margin.

Non-interest income and Non-interest expense

Non-interest income totaled $17.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, compared to $27.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. The decrease compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to a $6.5 million loss on sale of lease equipment during the quarter ended December 31, 2023 compared to a $4.2 million gain on sale of lease equipment during the prior quarter.

Non-interest expense totaled $190.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, compared to $147.1 million for the immediately preceding quarter ended September 30, 2023. The increase over the prior quarter was primarily attributable to a $35.4 million FDIC special assessment recorded during the quarter ended December 31, 2023. The increase in compensation and benefits for the quarter ended December 31, 2023 compared to the immediately preceding quarter primarily resulted from an increase in the Company's stock price, impacting the value of liability-classified share based compensation awards.
