Republic Bancorp, Inc. (“Republic” or the “Company”) reports net income of $26.7 million for the first quarter of 2020, resulting in Diluted Earnings per Class A Common Share (“Diluted EPS”) of $1.28, return on average assets (“ROA”) of 1.90%, and return on average equity (“ROE”) of 13.71%. Net income was down 10% from the first quarter of 2019 primarily as a result of an increase in the Company’s estimated Allowance for Credit Losses in response to the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Steve Trager, Chairman & CEO of Republic commented, “While we are proud of many of our operating metrics for the quarter, certainly the last month of the quarter was primarily focused on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and our corporate response to it. In that regard, our primary focus in response to the pandemic has been:
(1) safeguarding the health of our associates and our clients;
(2) cushioning our clients from the pandemic’s negative economic impact;
(3) mitigating our risk of loss; and
(4) measuring, forecasting and planning for the negative financial impact of the pandemic on a go-forward basis.
“With respect to safeguarding of our associates and our clients, we quickly and successfully enacted a social distancing protocol, which allowed the substantial majority of our back-office operations to work from home. For those personnel not able to work from home, we have physically distanced these associates from each other within our office space. Within our banking centers, we changed our in-person client service hours to be by appointment-only in order to limit the number of people within the banking centers at any point in time. In addition, we diverted much of our client service interaction to our drive-thru operations, with many of our drive-thru transactions facilitated through interactive teller machines (“ITMs”).
“To help cushion the impact of the pandemic on our deposit clients, we suspended certain deposit fees for transaction accounts for a yet-to-be-determined period of time. In addition, we also began waiving early withdrawal penalties for our term certificates of deposits (“CDs”) during the crisis so our clients can access this source of funds at no additional cost. For our consumer and commercial loan clients, we began offering various payment relief options depending on the loan program. Perhaps most importantly, we quickly refocused our salesforce and many of our back-office operations to facilitate the U.S. Small Business Administration’s (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). We are extremely proud of our Company-wide PPP effort, as we were up and running the first day of the program and accepted over $200 million in applications for our small business clients during the program’s first weekend.
“In order to mitigate future risks and uncertainties, we have increased our communications across the organization. We started with our Business Continuity Planning team, enacting a seven-day-a-week daily call with our sales and operational areas to ensure that everyone is aware of the major issues at hand and that we are protecting the Company’s assets while providing proper service and attention to our clients.
“In addition to our daily operational calls, we have added a second Asset-Liability Committee (“ALCO”) meeting each week to ensure our liquidity monitoring remains diligent and our loan and deposit pricing remains appropriate for the current risk environment. We also took steps during the quarter to fortify our liquidity position over the near term for any possible unanticipated cash-flow needs.
“While our regulatory capital currently remains well above “well capitalized” levels and our asset mix is well diversified and sound as of March 31, 2020, we are certainly not immune from the inherent risk in our loan portfolio. As a result, we have made changes to our overall underwriting matrices, including revisions to many of our minimum credit score requirements as well as our loan-to-value maximums for newly underwritten commercial and residential clients. With the on-going fluidity in the pandemic situation, we will continue to closely monitor our underwriting standards and make appropriate revisions as facts and circumstances warrant.
“Finally, we are very early in the process with respect to measuring, forecasting and planning for the negative financial impact of the pandemic. As we have previously disclosed, we adopted the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) accounting method on January 1st of this year. Upon adoption, we increased our Allowance for Credit Losses (“Allowance”) by approximately $6.7 million in order to account for the expected life-of-loan credit losses within our portfolio. This increase was offset with a tax-effected decrease to retained earnings. With the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, Congress provided companies with an option to delay adoption of CECL within the recently enacted Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES” Act). We understand that the financial impact to the banking industry may not be truly known for months; however, we chose to move forward with CECL as previously planned due to the uncertainty around future adoption later this year. As a result, the Company recorded an additional $7.2 million charge to its credit loss expense during the first quarter of 2020 to account for potential losses within the portfolio brought about by the impact of the pandemic. Our credit loss expense could be subject to future fluctuations, up and down, as additional information becomes available about this very uncertain pandemic situation.
“As it relates to the diversification of our overall loan portfolio, the following table exhibits our top 20 loan concentrations by industry as of March 31, 2020,” concluded Steve Trager.

Notable first quarter 2020 financial information for the Company by operating segment follows:
Core Bank(1)
- Traditional Bank net income declined $5.6 million, primarily due to a $5.4 million increase in credit loss expense driven largely by economic concerns of the COVID-19 pandemic. The increase in credit loss expense during the quarter related to the COVID-19 pandemic was partially offset by a large $470,000 loan recovery during the period, as well as the formula impact of a $60 million decrease in Traditional Bank spot balances from December 31, 2019 to March 31, 2020.
- Warehouse Lending net income was strong during the first quarter of 2020, increasing 66% over the first quarter of 2019. As mortgage rates fell during the first quarter of 2020, a surge in consumer refinance volume for Warehouse clients drove a 58% increase in average Warehouse loans for the quarter, which more than offset a 16-basis point decline in the Warehouse net interest margin.
- Mortgage banking revenue was $4.8 million for the first quarter of 2020 compared to $1.5 million for the first quarter of 2019. As mortgage rates fell during the first quarter of 2020, the Company experienced strong growth in consumer refinance activity, particularly within the Company’s relatively new Consumer Direct channel. Overall, the Company originated $125 million of secondary market mortgage loans during the first quarter of 2020 compared to $41 million for the first quarter of 2019.

Republic Processing Group(2)
- Our seasonal tax business continued to provide its traditional first quarter lift, with net income from our Tax Refund Solutions (“TRS”) segment remaining strong at $11.5 million despite a $1.7 million increase in credit loss expense.
- TRS’s credit loss expense for Easy Advance (“EA”) loans was $15.2 million, or 3.93% of its $387 million in EAs originated during the first quarter of 2020 compared to credit loss expense of $13.4 million, or 3.44% of its $389 million of EAs originated during the first quarter of 2019. The increased credit loss expense for the first quarter of 2020 was due to slower refund payments received from the U.S. Treasury for 2020 as compared to 2019. While the Company is uncertain how much the COVID-19 pandemic contributed to the slower refund payments for 2020, management believes it has adequately adjusted its expected loss rate to absorb EA losses based on information known through the date of this release. EAs are only originated during the first two months of each year, with all uncollected EAs charged off by June 30th of each year. EAs collected during the second half of each year are recorded as recoveries of previously charged-off loans. TRS’s loss rate as of June 30, 2019 was 3.45% of total originations and it finished 2019 with an EA loss rate of 2.74% of total EAs originated.
- Net income for our Republic Credit Solutions (“RCS”) grew 38% over the first quarter of 2019. The increase in net income primarily reflects a decrease in credit loss expense on RCS’s line-of-credit product. Credit loss expense for RCS decreased despite $665,000 of additional reserves during the first quarter of 2020 related to the COVID-19 pandemic, as a decrease in net charge-offs and a decrease in outstanding balances for its line-of-credit product drove down credit loss expense.

Republic Bancorp, Inc. Financial Information First Quarter 2020 Earnings Release (continued)
Segment Data:
Reportable segments are determined by the type of products and services offered and the level of information provided to the chief operating decision maker, who uses such information to review performance of various components of the business (such as banking centers and business units), which are then aggregated if operating performance, products/services, and clients are similar.
As of March 31, 2020, the Company was divided into five reportable segments: Traditional Banking, Warehouse Lending (“Warehouse”), Mortgage Banking, Tax Refund Solutions (“TRS”), and Republic Credit Solutions (“RCS”). Management considers the first three segments to collectively constitute “Core Bank” or “Core Banking” operations, while the last two segments collectively constitute Republic Processing Group (“RPG”) operations. MemoryBank®, the Company’s national branchless banking platform is part of the Traditional Banking segment.
The nature of segment operations and the primary drivers of net revenues by reportable segment are provided below:

The accounting policies used for Republic’s reportable segments are generally the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in the Company’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company did update its accounting policies during the first quarter of 2020 upon adoption of the CECL standard. Republic evaluates segment performance using operating income. The Company allocates goodwill to the Traditional Banking segment. Republic generally allocates income taxes based on income before income tax expense unless reasonable and specific segment allocations can be made. The Company makes transactions among reportable segments at carrying value.

Republic Bancorp, Inc. Financial Information First Quarter 2020 Earnings Release (continued)
(1) |
“Core Bank” or “Core Banking” operations consist of the Traditional Banking, Warehouse Lending, and Mortgage Banking segments. |
|
(2) |
Republic Processing Group operations consist of the Tax Refund Solutions and Republic Credit Solutions segments. |
|
(3) |
Effective January 1, 2020, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 326 Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, which replaces the pre-January 1, 2020 “probable-incurred” method for calculating the Company’s Allowance for Credit Losses (“ACL”) with the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) method. CECL is applicable to financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loan and lease receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities. CECL also applies to certain off-balance sheet credit exposures. In addition to CECL, ASC 326 made changes to the accounting for Available-for-Sale (“AFS”) debt securities. One such change is to require credit losses to be presented as an allowance rather than as a write-down on AFS debt securities that the Company does not intend or will likely not be compelled to sell. |
|
When measuring an ACL, CECL primarily differs from the probable-incurred method by: a) incorporating a lower “expected” threshold for loss recognition versus a higher “probable” threshold; b) requiring life-of-loan considerations; and c) requiring reasonable and supportable forecasts. The Company’s CECL method is a “static-pool” method that analyzes historical closed pools of loans over their expected lives to attain a loss rate, which is then adjusted for current conditions and reasonable and supportable forecasts prior to being applied to the current balance of the analyzed pools. Due to its reasonably strong correlation to the Company's historical net loan losses, the Company has chosen to use the U.S. unemployment rate as its primary forecasting tool. |
||
In accord with the adoption of ASC 326 and CECL, the Company recorded on January 1, 2020 a $6.7 million, or 16%, increase in the ACL for its loans and leases, a $51,000 ACL for its investment debt securities, and an approximate $456,000 ACL for its off-balance sheet exposures. This adoption also reduced the Company’s retained earnings on a tax-effected basis, with no impact on earnings for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. The adoption date increase in ACL for the Company’s loans and leases primarily reflects additional ACL for longer duration loan portfolios, such as the Company's residential real estate and consumer loan portfolios. No additional segmentation of the Bank's loan portfolios was deemed necessary upon adoption. |
||
(4) |
The amount of loan fee income can meaningfully impact total interest income, loan yields, net interest margin, and net interest spread. The amount of loan fee income included in total interest income per quarter was as follows: $28.5 million (quarter ended March 31, 2020); $8.5 million (quarter ended December 31, 2019); $9.1 million (quarter ended September 30, 2019); $8.4 million (quarter ended June 30, 2019); and $28.6 million (quarter ended March 31, 2019). |
|
Interest income for Easy Advances (“EAs”) is composed entirely of loan fees. The loan fees disclosed above included EA fees of $19.3 million and $18.9 million for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and 2019. EAs are only offered during the first two months of each year. |

(5) |
The following table provides a reconciliation of total stockholders’ equity in accordance with GAAP to tangible stockholders’ equity in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements, a non-GAAP disclosure. The Company provides the tangible book value per share, a non-GAAP measure, in addition to those defined by banking regulators, because of its widespread use by investors as a means to evaluate capital adequacy. |
