Guaranty Bancshares, Inc. (NYSE: GNTY) (the "Company"), the
parent company of Guaranty Bank & Trust, N.A. (the "Bank"),
today reported financial results for the fiscal quarter ended June
30, 2024. The Company's net income available to common shareholders
was $7.4 million, or $0.65 per basic share, for the quarter ended
June 30, 2024, compared to $6.7 million, or $0.58 per basic share,
for the quarter ended March 31, 2024 and $9.6 million, or $0.82 per
basic share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2023. Return on average
assets and average equity for the second quarter of 2024 were 0.95%
and 9.91%, respectively, compared to 0.85% and 8.93%, respectively,
for the first quarter of 2024 and 1.17% and 12.87%, respectively,
for the second quarter of 2023. The increase in earnings during the
second quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2024 was
primarily due to the $1.2 million reversal of the provision for
credit losses during the second quarter. The decrease in earnings
in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of
2023 was primarily due to a decrease in noninterest income in the
current quarter compared to the prior year quarter.
"Second quarter 2024 results were good and consistent with our
expectations. Net interest margin continued to improve from 3.16%
in the first quarter to 3.26% in the second quarter. Deposit
balances have remained stable as we've strategically shrunk the
balance sheet and repaid an additional $30.0 million in FHLB
advances during the quarter, as well as purchased some
higher-yielding investment securities. Credit quality overall
remains manageable with low past-due and charge-off percentages.
That, along with lower loan balances, resulted in a $1.2 million
reverse provision for credit losses during the quarter. However, we
are closely monitoring and working with a handful of one-off
borrowers that are experiencing financial difficulties and have
adjusted their risk ratings and loss reserve amounts accordingly.
We believe our balance sheet is strong and positioned to go on the
offensive as the economy improves and the Bank continues to provide
consistent earnings results for our shareholders," said Ty Abston,
the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
QUARTERLY HIGHLIGHTS
- Growing Earnings and Improving NIM. Net interest margin,
on a fully taxable equivalent basis, continued to improve in the
second quarter, increasing to 3.26%, compared to 3.16% in the first
quarter and 3.19% in the prior year quarter. Earnings also improved
compared to the prior quarter, due to the improved net interest
margin, reverse credit loss provisions, and lower employee and
compensation expenses. The net interest improvements resulted
primarily from a slow-down in deposit cost increases, while earning
assets have continued to reprice upward.
- Good Asset Quality. We have experienced some risk rating
downgrades as we work with certain borrowers that are experiencing
cash flow and other challenges. However, we believe overall credit
quality remains strong and the expected losses on deteriorating
credits are low primarily due to the Bank's equity position and/or
strong guarantor support. Nonperforming assets as a percentage of
total assets were 0.71% at June 30, 2024, compared to 0.68% at
March 31, 2024 and 0.11% at June 30, 2023. Net charge-offs
(annualized) to average loans were 0.01% for the quarter ended June
30, 2024, compared to 0.02% for the quarter ended March 31, 2024,
and 0.03% for the quarter ended June 30, 2023. There was a reverse
provision to the allowance for credit losses of $1.2 million during
the second quarter, in addition to the $250,000 reverse provision
in the first quarter. Changes to historical and qualitative factors
have been minimal during the first half of 2024, therefore the
decrease in the allowance for credit losses is due primarily to the
decreases in outstanding loan balances of $107.6 million, or 4.6%,
since January 1, 2024, which were partially offset by an increase
in special mention and substandard loans during the same period as
we continue to work with some stressed borrowers. Nonperforming
assets consist of both nonaccrual loans and other real estate owned
(ORE). Nonaccrual loans represent 0.28% of total outstanding loan
balances as of June 30, 2024 and consist primarily of smaller
dollar consumer and small business loans. In the first quarter, we
foreclosed on a multi-purpose commercial real estate loan in a
vibrant location in the South Austin area and recorded other real
estate owned of $14.9 million. As the property was prepared for
sale and marketing in the second quarter, management applied a more
conservative capitalization rate to estimate current value and
applied a $900,000 valuation allowance during the quarter, which is
included in other noninterest income on the income statement and
explains the quarter-over-quarter decrease in that balance. During
the second quarter, we also foreclosed on a single-family
residential property with a fair value of $1.2 million. At this
time, we do not expect additional valuation allowances or losses on
the ORE. Commercial real estate (CRE) loans, particularly office
related loans, have received increased scrutiny in recent months.
As of June 30, 2024, our CRE loans and real estate C&D loans
represent 40.6% and 10.4% of the total loan portfolio,
respectively, and office-related loans represent 5.5% of the total
loan portfolio with an average balance of $551,000.
- Granular and Consistent Core Deposit Base. As of June
30, 2024, we have 89,370 total deposit accounts with an average
account balance of $29,385. We have a historically reliable core
deposit base, with strong and trusted banking relationships. Total
deposits decreased slightly by $1.7 million during the second
quarter. DDA balances decreased $11.1 million, savings and MMDA
balances decreased $21.9 million while time deposits increased
$31.3 million. Excluding public funds and Bank-owned accounts, our
uninsured deposits as of June 30, 2024 were 25.7% of total
deposits. Interest rates paid on deposits during the quarter
stabilized with minimal increases. Despite the decrease in DDA
during the quarter, noninterest-bearing deposits still represent
31.2% of total deposits. Our cost of interest-bearing deposits
increased seven basis points during the quarter from 3.25% in the
prior quarter to 3.32%. This increase was primarily due to renewals
of maturing certificates of deposit into new CDs paying higher
rates and the shift from noninterest-bearing balances to
interest-bearing. Our cost of total deposits for the second quarter
of 2024 increased five basis points from 2.23% in the prior quarter
to 2.28%†.
- Healthy Capital and Liquidity. Our capital and liquidity
ratios, as well as contingent liquidity sources, remain very
healthy. During the second quarter of 2024, we repurchased 138,427
shares of our common stock, or 1.21% of our average shares
outstanding during the period, at an average price of $29.56 per
share. Our liquidity ratio, calculated as cash and cash equivalents
and unpledged investments divided by total liabilities, was 13.6%
as of June 30, 2024, compared to 12.9% as of June 30, 2023. Our
total available contingent liquidity, net of current outstanding
borrowings, was $1.3 billion, consisting of FHLB, FRB and
correspondent bank fed funds and revolving lines of credit.
Finally, our total equity to average quarterly assets as of June
30, 2024 was 9.9%. If we had to recognize our entire net unrealized
losses on both AFS and HTM securities, our total equity to average
assets ratio would be 9.1%†, which we believe represents a
strong capital level under regulatory requirements.
† Non-GAAP financial metric. Calculations of this metric
and reconciliations to GAAP are included in the schedules
accompanying this release.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Net interest income, before the provision for credit losses, in
the second quarter of 2024 and 2023 was $23.9 million and $24.7
million, respectively, a decrease of $823,000, or 3.3%. The
decrease in net interest income resulted from an increase in
interest expense of $2.8 million, or 20.0%, compared to the prior
year quarter, which was partially offset by an increase in interest
income of $2.0 million, or 5.1%, from the same quarter in the prior
year. The increases in both interest income and expense resulted
primarily from higher rates during the period. Interest expense was
also somewhat impacted by a shift from noninterest-bearing to
interest-bearing deposit accounts, which resulted in increased
expense in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the prior year
quarter. Our noninterest-bearing deposits to total deposits were
31.2% and 35.2% as of June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis, for
the second quarter of 2024 and 2023 was 3.26% and 3.19%,
respectively. Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent
basis, increased seven basis points primarily due to increases in
interest earned on loans and available for sale securities during
the period. The cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased 61
basis points from the prior year quarter, while interest-earning
asset yields increased 57 basis points. The increase in the cost of
interest-bearing liabilities was due primarily to an increase in
the cost of interest-bearing deposits from 2.41% to 3.32%, a change
of 91 basis points, in the second quarter of 2024 compared to the
same period in 2023. The increases in cost were partially offset by
increases in yield on the loan portfolio from 5.70% to 6.29%, or 59
basis points, as well as 97 and 14 basis point increases in yield
on AFS and HTM securities, respectively. Although the cost of
interest-bearing liabilities have repriced more quickly during this
period, the weighted average yield on $73.5 million in new loans
originated in the second quarter was 8.26%.
Net interest income, before the provision for credit losses,
increased $293,000, or 1.2%, from $23.6 million in the first
quarter of 2024 to $23.9 million in the second quarter of 2024. The
increase in net interest income resulted primarily from an decrease
in interest expense of $332,000, or 1.9%, compared to a decrease in
interest income of only $39,000, or 0.1%.
Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent basis,
increased from 3.16% for the first quarter of 2024 to 3.26% for the
second quarter of 2024, an increase of 10 basis points. The
increase in net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent
basis, was primarily due to an increase in loan yields from 6.21%
for the first quarter of 2024 to 6.29% for the second quarter of
2024, a change of eight basis points, and a decrease in total
interest-earning assets during the second quarter of 2024. This
increase was partially offset by an increase in the cost of
interest-bearing deposits from 3.25% in the first quarter of 2024
to 3.32% in the second quarter of 2024, a change of seven basis
points.
We recorded a reverse provision for credit losses of $1.2
million and $250,000 during the second and first quarters of 2024,
respectively. Our gross loan balances decreased by $50.3 million
during the second quarter and by $107.6 million during the first
half of 2024, while overall credit quality trends and economic
forecast assumptions remained relatively stable. As of June 30,
2024 and December 31, 2023, our allowance for credit losses as a
percentage of total loans was 1.32% and 1.33%, respectively.
Noninterest income decreased $3.3 million, or 41.6%, in the
second quarter of 2024 to $4.6 million, compared to $7.9 million
for the second quarter of 2023. The decrease from the same quarter
in 2023 was primarily due to a one-time gain on the sale of
nonmarketable correspondent bank stock of $2.8 million in the prior
year quarter and a $900,000 ORE valuation allowance during the
second quarter of 2024 (described further in the Quarterly
Highlights above).
Noninterest expense increased $131,000, or 0.6%, in the second
quarter of 2024 to $20.6 million, compared to $20.5 million for the
second quarter of 2023. The increase in noninterest expense in the
second quarter of 2024 was driven primarily by an increase in other
noninterest expense of $393,000, or 32.5%, due to $222,000 in ORE
expenses during the current quarter, as well as a $123,000 increase
in losses sustained due to fraudulent check activity during the
current quarter. Additionally, the Bank saw an increase in software
and technology expense of $122,000, or 8.0%. These were partially
offset by a $216,000, or 1.8%, decrease in employee compensation
and benefits and a $144,000, or 14.6%, decrease in legal and
professional fees compared to the second quarter of 2023.
Noninterest income in the second quarter of 2024 decreased by
$659,000, or 12.5%, from $5.3 million in the first quarter of 2024.
The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in other noninterest
income of $1.1 million, or 94.3%, primarily the result of a
$900,000 ORE valuation allowance during the second quarter of 2024.
Additionally, there was $499,000 in prior write-down recoveries on
receivables related to SBA loans during the first quarter of 2024
that were not present in the second quarter of 2024.
Noninterest expense decreased $90,000, or 0.4%, in the second
quarter of 2024, from $20.7 million for the quarter ended March 31,
2024. The decrease resulted primarily from a $714,000, or 5.7%,
decrease in employee compensation and benefits. There was a
$287,000 higher expense in the first quarter related to our
executive compensation program, which is primarily funded by the
Company during the first quarter of each year. Payroll tax-related
expense decreased by $192,000 from the first quarter to the second
quarter due to bonus-related taxes paid during the first quarter.
Bonus expense was decreased in the second quarter compared to the
first quarter by $125,000 as production-related incentives are
expected to be lower than originally accrued for. These decreases
were partially offset by a $177,000, or 6.4%, increase in occupancy
expenses, a $176,000, or 28.9%, increase in ATM and debit card
expense and a $164,000, or 11.4%, increase in other noninterest
expense during the second quarter of 2024 compared to the first
quarter of 2024.
The Company’s efficiency ratio in the second quarter of 2024 was
72.34%, compared to 62.84% in the prior year quarter and 71.74% in
the first quarter of 2024.
FINANCIAL CONDITION
Consolidated assets for the Company totaled $3.08 billion at
June 30, 2024, compared to $3.13 billion at March 31, 2024 and
$3.21 billion at June 30, 2023.
Gross loans decreased by $50.3 million, or 2.2%, during the
quarter resulting in a gross loan balance of $2.21 billion at June
30, 2024, compared to $2.27 billion at March 31, 2024. Our decline
in loans resulted primarily from tighter underwriting due to the
current economic environment and from lower demand from potential
borrowers.
Gross loans decreased $118.9 million, or 5.1%, from $2.33
billion at June 30, 2023. The decrease in gross loans during the
second quarter of 2024 compared to the second quarter of 2023
resulted from tightened credit underwriting standards and loan
terms, along with fewer borrower requests in response to higher
interest rates and project costs.
Total deposits decreased by $1.7 million, or 0.1%, to $2.63
billion at June 30, 2024, compared to $2.63 billion at March 31,
2024, and increased $23.3 million, or 0.9%, from $2.60 billion at
June 30, 2023. The decrease in deposits during the second quarter
of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2024 was the result of a
decrease in noninterest-bearing deposits of $8.4 million, offset by
an increase in interest-bearing deposits of $6.7 million. The
increase in deposits during the current quarter compared to the
prior year quarter resulted primarily from an increase in
interest-bearing deposits of $118.4 million, partially offset by a
decrease in noninterest-bearing deposits of $95.0 million.
Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total loans were 0.98%
at June 30, 2024, compared to 0.94% at March 31, 2024 and 0.15% at
June 30, 2023. Nonperforming assets as a percentage of total assets
were 0.71% at June 30, 2024, compared to 0.68% at March 31, 2024,
and 0.11% at June 30, 2023. The Bank's nonperforming assets consist
primarily of other real estate owned and nonaccrual loans. The
increase in nonperforming assets compared to the prior year quarter
was primarily due to the increase in other real estate owned, which
is described in the Quarterly Highlights above.
Total equity was $308.6 million at June 30, 2024, compared to
$305.9 million at March 31, 2024 and $297.4 million at June 30,
2023. The increase in total equity compared to the prior quarter
and prior year quarter resulted primarily from net income of $7.4
million during the second quarter and a positive shift in our net
unrealized losses on securities compared to the prior periods.
These increases were somewhat offset by the payment of dividends of
$2.7 million during the second quarter of 2024, and a higher volume
of stock share repurchases of $4.1 million during the second
quarter of 2024 compared to prior quarters.

nontaxable income divided by average interest-earning assets,
annualized, using a marginal tax rate of 21%.
(4) The efficiency ratio was calculated by
dividing total noninterest expense by net interest income plus
noninterest income, excluding securities gains or losses. Taxes are
not part of this calculation.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Certain of the financial measures and ratios we present,
including “tangible book value per common share”, "net unrealized
loss on securities, tax effected, as a percentage of total equity"
and "cost of total deposits" are supplemental measures that are not
required by, or are not presented in accordance with, U.S.
generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). We refer to these
financial measures and ratios as “non-GAAP financial measures.” We
consider the use of select non-GAAP financial measures and ratios
to be useful for financial and operational decision making and
useful in evaluating period-to-period comparisons. We believe that
these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental
information regarding our performance by excluding certain
expenditures or assets that we believe are not indicative of our
primary business operating results or by presenting certain metrics
on a fully taxable equivalent basis. We believe that management and
investors benefit from referring to these non-GAAP financial
measures in assessing our performance and when planning,
forecasting, analyzing and comparing past, present and future
periods.
These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a
substitute for financial information presented in accordance with
GAAP and you should not rely on non-GAAP financial measures alone
as measures of our performance. The non-GAAP financial measures we
present may differ from non-GAAP financial measures used by our
peers or other companies. We compensate for these limitations by
providing the equivalent GAAP measures whenever we present the
non-GAAP financial measures and by including a reconciliation of
the impact of the components adjusted for in the non-GAAP financial
measure so that both measures and the individual components may be
considered when analyzing our performance.
A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the
comparable GAAP financial measures is included at the end of the
financial statement tables.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking
Information
This communication contains forward-looking statements within
the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of
1995. These forward-looking statements reflect our current views
with respect to, among other things, future events and our results
of operations, financial condition and financial performance. These
statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words
or phrases such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “predict,”
“potential,” “believe,” “will likely result,” “expect,” “continue,”
“will,” “anticipate,” “seek,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,”
“projection,” “would” and “outlook,” or the negative version of
those words or other comparable words of a future or
forward-looking nature. These forward-looking statements are not
historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates
and projections about our industry, management’s beliefs and
certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their
nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond our control.
Accordingly, we caution you that any such forward-looking
statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject
to risks, assumptions and uncertainties that are difficult to
predict. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in
these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date
made, actual results may prove to be materially different from the
results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
Such factors include, without limitation, the “Risk Factors”
referenced in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and any
subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, and other risks and
