BANCFIRST CORPORATION REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER EARNINGS
BancFirst Corporation (NASDAQ GS:BANF) reported net income of $35.4 million, or $1.06 diluted earnings per share, for the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to net income of $35.5 million, or $1.07 diluted earnings per share, for the fourth quarter of 2019. Net income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 was $99.6 million, or $3.00 diluted earnings per share, compared to $134.9 million, or $4.05 diluted earnings per share, for the year ended December 31, 2019. The results for 2020 were negatively impacted by a higher provision for credit losses. Net income for the year ended December 31, 2020 includes the entire year of net income of Pegasus Bank in Dallas, Texas, which was acquired on August 15, 2019, and the income and expenses associated with the purchase of assets and assumption of liabilities on March 5, 2020, from The Citizens State Bank of Okemah. The results for the prior year include Pegasus Bank acquisition related expenses of approximately $3.1 million.
The provision for credit losses for the fourth quarter of 2020 was $5.0 million compared to $1.4 million a year ago and $57.7 million through the first three quarters of 2020. BancFirst Corporation Executive Chairman David Rainbolt commented, "Our provision for credit losses was substantially reduced from previous quarters due to improvements in projected outcomes for the economic effects of the pandemic. The rollout of the vaccine and extension of the Cares Act stimulus, combined with improved energy prices and jobs data, justify a cessation to the outsized provisions seen in prior quarters."
The Company's net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2020 increased to $79.5 million compared to $73.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. Net interest income increased for the fourth quarter of 2020 due to loan growth, PPP fee income of approximately $8.0 million and the decrease in interest rates paid on deposits. The net interest margin for the quarter was 3.54% compared to 3.78% a year ago. The Company had net charge-offs for the quarter of 0.30% of average loans, compared to net charge-offs of 0.06% of average loans for the fourth quarter of 2019. Noninterest income for the quarter totaled $35.4 million, compared to $35.5 million last year. Noninterest expense for the quarter totaled $65.6 million compared to $66.3 million last year. Overall noninterest expense decreased during the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to the fourth quarter of 2019 primarily due to $2.3 million of amortization of new market tax credits in 2019. However, deposit insurance, net expense from other real estate owned, net occupancy and depreciation increased during the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to 2019. The Company's effective tax rate was 20.3% compared to 15.0% for the fourth quarter of 2019. The effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2019 was lower due to the purchase of tax credits during the quarter.
At December 31, 2020, the Company's total assets were $9.2 billion, an increase of $646.6 million from December 31, 2019. Securities of $555.2 million were up $63.6 million from December 31, 2019. Loans totaled $6.4 billion, an increase of $775.1 million from December 31, 2019. Deposits totaled $8.1 billion, an increase of $581.1 million from the December 31, 2019 total. The increase in assets, loans and deposits were primarily related to the Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) and other government stimulus. At December 31, 2020, the balance of the Paycheck Protection Program loans was $652.7 million. The Company's total stockholders' equity was $1.1 billion, an increase of $62.9 million over December 31, 2019. Off-balance sheet sweep accounts were $2.7 billion at December 31, 2020 compared to $2.0 billion at December 31, 2019.
Nonaccrual loans represented 0.58% of total loans at December 31, 2020, up from 0.32% at year-end 2019, but down from 1.24% at September 30, 2020. Non-performing assets represented 0.90% of total assets at December 31, 2020, up from 0.63% at December 31, 2019 as a result of loan migration from non-accrual loans to other real estate owned (OREO) during the fourth quarter of 2020. The allowance to total loans was 1.42% at December 31, 2020, up from 0.96% at year-end 2019. The allowance to nonaccrual loans was approximately 243% at December 31, 2020, compared to 302% at year-end 2019, and 129% at September 30, 2020.
BancFirst Corporation CEO David Harlow commented, "In a very challenging year the Company was able to report earnings of $3.00 per diluted share while substantially building loan loss reserves, increasing our dividend for the 27th consecutive year and growing total stockholders' equity and tangible book value per share. The outlook for 2021 is certainly better today than we would have projected at the outset of the pandemic; however, many consumers and certain sectors of the economy continue to struggle and the ultimate outcome for many businesses when the stimulus subsides is far from certain."
BancFirst Corporation (the Company) is an Oklahoma based financial services holding company. The Company operates two subsidiary banks, BancFirst, an Oklahoma state-chartered bank with 107 banking locations serving 59 communities across Oklahoma, and Pegasus Bank, with 3 banking locations in Dallas, TX.
