CEO COMMENTARY:

“The strong momentum garnered throughout the year propelled Western Alliance to new heights, closing out the fourth quarter with record earnings and robust balance sheet growth,” said Kenneth Vecchione, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We achieved a record $246.0 million in net income and earnings per share of $2.32 for the quarter, an increase of 20% from the prior year. Quarterly loan and deposit growth of $4.3 billion and $2.3 billion, respectively, boosted total assets to $56.0 billion at year end, while tangible book value per share1 rose 9.1% to $37.84."

“Western Alliance’s full year results are a direct reflection of our collaborative and results-oriented culture. We completed the acquisition of AmeriHome in April, extending our national commercial businesses with a complementary mortgage franchise, and since then have made substantial progress towards the full integration of our teams. We also surpassed the $50 billion asset milestone, as both loan and deposit growth were up over 40% from the prior year, all while continuing our focus on asset quality. Net charge-offs for the year totaled $5.9 million, or only 2 basis points of average loans, and classified assets at the end of the year were 54 basis points to total assets. Our significant balance sheet growth during the year also drove an increase in earnings as PPNR 1 climbed 50% over the prior year to $1.1 billion, with net income of $899.2 million and earnings per share up 72% to $8.67.”

Acquisition of AmeriHome Mortgage Company:

On April 7, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of Aris Mortgage Holding Company, LLC, the parent company of AmeriHome Mortgage Company, LLC ("AmeriHome"). The Company's results include the financial results of AmeriHome beginning on April 7, 2021.

Income Statement

Net interest income was $450.6 million in the fourth quarter 2021, an increase of $40.2 million from $410.4 million in the third quarter 2021, and an increase of $135.8 million, or 43.1%, compared to the fourth quarter 2020. Continued HFI loan growth and interest income from HFS loans drove the increase in net interest income from both the third quarter 2021 and the fourth quarter 2020.

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses totaling $13.2 million in the fourth quarter 2021, an increase of $0.9 million from $12.3 million in the third quarter 2021, compared to a provision release of $34.2 million in the fourth quarter 2020. The provision for credit losses during the fourth quarter 2021 is primarily due to loan growth.

The Company’s net interest margin in the fourth quarter 2021 was 3.33%, a decrease from 3.43% in the third quarter 2021, and a decrease from 3.84% in the fourth quarter 2020. The decrease in net interest margin from the prior period is largely a result of lower yields across most loan types and continued mix shift into residential loans. The decrease in net interest margin from the fourth quarter 2020 was driven by the lower rate environment, which lowered loan and investment security yields, partially offset by lower deposit costs.

Non-interest income was $110.4 million for the fourth quarter 2021, compared to $138.1 million for the third quarter 2021, and $23.8 million for the fourth quarter 2020. The decrease in non-interest income from the third quarter 2021 was driven by a decrease in net gain on loan origination and sale activities of $47.8 million, partially offset by gains on security sales and recovery from credit guarantees of $8.3 million and $7.2 million, respectively. The increase in non-interest income from the fourth quarter 2020 is primarily the result of mortgage banking related income from AmeriHome.

Net revenue was $561.0 million for the fourth quarter 2021, an increase of $12.5 million, or 2.3%, compared to $548.5 million for the third quarter 2021, and an increase of $222.4 million, or 65.7%, compared to $338.6 million for the fourth quarter 2020. The increase in net revenue from the third quarter 2021 and fourth quarter 2020 was driven by an increase in loan interest income generated from HFI loan growth and HFS loans. The increase in net revenue from the fourth quarter 2020 was also attributable to an increase in non-interest income from mortgage banking related income.

Non-interest expense of $237.8 million for the fourth quarter 2021, or $235.1 million adjusted1 to exclude AmeriHome acquisition and restructure related expenses and loss on extinguishment of debt, compared to $233.8 million for the third quarter 2021, or $231.4 million adjusted1, and $132.2 million for the fourth quarter 2020. The Company’s efficiency ratio1, adjusted to exclude acquisition and restructure related expenses and loss on extinguishment of debt, was 41.3% for the fourth quarter 2021, compared to 41.5% in the third quarter 2021, and 38.2% for the fourth quarter 2020. The increase in adjusted non-interest expense1 from the fourth quarter 2020 is attributable to growth from the AmeriHome acquisition, which increased compensation costs and also introduced additional non-interest expense items, such as loan servicing and loan acquisition and origination expenses.

Income tax expense was $64.0 million for the fourth quarter 2021, compared to $65.5 million for the third quarter 2021, and $47.0 million for the fourth quarter 2020.

Net income was $246.0 million for the fourth quarter 2021, an increase of $9.1 million from $236.9 million for the third quarter 2021, and an increase of $52.4 million from $193.6 million for the fourth quarter 2020. Earnings per share was $2.32 for the fourth quarter 2021, or $2.34 per share after adjusting for acquisition and restructure expenses and loss on extinguishment of debt, compared to $2.28, or $2.30 per share after adjusting for acquisition and restructure expenses, for the third quarter 2021, and $1.93 for the fourth quarter 2020. As discussed above, the increase in net income and earnings per share for the fourth quarter 2021 compared to the same quarter last year was driven by continued HFI loan growth and new activity related to the AmeriHome acquisition.

The Company views its pre-provision net revenue1 ("PPNR") as a key metric for assessing the Company’s earnings power, which it defines as net revenue less non-interest expense, adjusted for acquisition and restructure expenses and loss on extinguishment of debt. For the fourth quarter 2021, the Company’s PPNR1 was $325.9 million, up $8.8 million from $317.1 million in the third quarter 2021, and up $119.5 million from $206.4 million in the fourth quarter 2020. The increase in PPNR1 from the third quarter 2021 and fourth quarter 2020 was driven by HFI loan growth and the AmeriHome acquisition completed on April 7, 2021.

The Company had 3,139 full-time equivalent employees and 58 offices at December 31, 2021, compared to 3,061 employees and 54 offices at September 30, 2021, and 1,915 employees and 49 offices at December 31, 2020. The increase in employees from the prior year primarily relates to the addition of AmeriHome employees.

Balance Sheet

HFI loans, net of deferred fees totaled $39.1 billion at December 31, 2021, an increase of $4.3 billion from $34.8 billion at September 30, 2021, and $12.0 billion from $27.1 billion at December 31, 2020. The increase in HFI loans from the prior quarter was driven by residential real estate, commercial and industrial, and CRE non-owner occupied loans, which increased $1.8 billion, $1.8 billion, and $683 million, respectively. From December 31, 2020, loan growth was primarily driven by residential real estate and commercial and industrial loans, which increased $6.8 billion and $4.0 billion, respectively. CRE non-owner occupied and construction and land development loans also increased $872 million and $591 million, respectively, partially offset by a decrease in CRE owner occupied loans of $259 million from December 31, 2020.

The Company's allowance for credit losses on HFI loans consists of an allowance for funded HFI loans and an allowance for unfunded loan commitments. At December 31, 2021, the allowance for loan losses to funded HFI loans was 0.65%, compared to 0.71% at September 30, 2021, and 1.03% at December 31, 2020. The allowance for credit losses, which includes the allowance for unfunded loan commitments, to funded HFI loans was 0.74% at December 31, 2021, compared to 0.80% at September 30, 2021, and 1.17% at December 31, 2020. The Company entered into two separate credit linked note transactions during the year, which effectively transfers the risk of loan losses on an $6.4 billion reference pool to the purchasers of the notes. However, as these note transactions are considered to be free standing credit enhancements, the allowance for credit losses cannot be reduced by the expected credit losses that may be mitigated by these notes. Accordingly, the allowance for loan and credit losses ratios as of December 31, 2021 include an allowance of $7.2 million related to this $6.4 billion pool of loans.

Deposits totaled $47.6 billion at December 31, 2021, an increase of $2.3 billion from $45.3 billion at September 30, 2021, and an increase of $15.7 billion from $31.9 billion at December 31, 2020. By deposit type, the increase from the prior quarter is primarily attributable to an increase of $2.0 billion from interest bearing demand deposits, $295 million from non-interest bearing demand deposits, and $226 million from certificates of deposits, partially offset by a decrease of $162 million from savings and money market accounts. From December 31, 2020, deposits increased across all deposit types, with the largest increases in non-interest bearing demand deposits of $7.9 billion, savings and money market accounts of $4.9 billion, and interest-bearing demand deposits of $2.5 billion. Non-interest bearing deposits were $21.4 billion at December 31, 2021, compared to $21.1 billion at September 30, 2021, and $13.5 billion at December 31, 2020.

The Company’s ratio of HFI loans to deposits was 82.1% at December 31, 2021, compared to 76.9% at September 30, 2021, and 84.7% at December 31, 2020.

Borrowings were $1.5 billion at December 31, 2021, $987 million at September 30, 2021, and $5 million at December 31, 2020. The increase in borrowings from September 30, 2021 is due primarily to an increase in overnight borrowings of $275 million and issuance of $228 million in credit linked notes during the quarter. The increase in borrowings from December 31, 2020 is due primarily to the assumption of borrowings related to the acquisition of AmeriHome, the issuances of $470 million in credit linked notes during the year, and an increase in overnight borrowings of $675 million.

Qualifying debt totaled $896 million at December 31, 2021, compared to $1.1 billion at September 30, 2021, and $549 million at December 31, 2020. The decrease in qualifying debt from September 30, 2021 is due to redemption of $175 million in subordinated debt during the quarter. The increase in qualifying debt from December 31, 2020 is primarily related to the issuance of $600 million in subordinated debt in June 2021, partially offset by $250 million in subordinated debt redemptions during the year.

Stockholders’ equity was $5.0 billion at December 31, 2021, compared to $4.5 billion at September 30, 2021, and $3.4 billion at December 31, 2020. The increase in stockholders' equity from September 30, 2021 is attributable to net income and net proceeds from the sale of the Company's common stock under its ATM program, partially offset by dividends to shareholders. During the quarter, the Company sold 2.4 million shares of its common stock at an average purchase price of $108.09 per share, with aggregate net proceeds totaling $261 million. A cash dividend of $0.35 per share was paid to common shareholders on December 3, 2021, totaling $36.5 million. Additionally, the Company paid a cash dividend of $0.289225 per depository share to preferred shareholders on December 29, 2021, totaling $3.5 million. The increase in stockholders' equity from December 31, 2020 is primarily a function of net income, issuance of preferred stock, and sales of common stock in a direct stock offering and under the Company's ATM program, partially offset by dividends to shareholders.

At December 31, 2021, tangible common equity, net of tax1, was 7.3% of tangible assets1 and total capital was 12.3% of risk-weighted assets. The Company’s tangible book value per share1 was $37.84 at December 31, 2021, up 22.5% from December 31, 2020.

Total assets increased 6.1% to $56.0 billion at December 31, 2021, from $52.8 billion at September 30, 2021, and increased 53.5% from $36.5 billion at December 31, 2020. The increase in total assets from the prior year was driven by continued organic loan and deposit growth and the acquisition of net assets in the AmeriHome acquisition.

Provision for credit losses totaled $13.2 million for the fourth quarter 2021, compared $12.3 million for the third quarter 2021, and a recovery of credit losses of $34.2 million for the fourth quarter 2020. Net loan charge-offs in the fourth quarter 2021 were $1.4 million, or 0.02% of average loans (annualized), compared to $3.0 million, or 0.04%, in the third quarter 2021, and $3.9 million, or 0.06%, in the fourth quarter 2020.

Nonaccrual loans decreased $5.5 million to $72.6 million during the quarter and decreased $42.6 million from December 31, 2020. Loans past due 90 days and still accruing interest were zero at December 31, 2021, September 30, 2021, and December 31, 2020. Loans past due 30-89 days and still accruing interest totaled $52.5 million at December 31, 2021, an increase from $23.6 million at September 30, 2021, and an increase from $11.2 million at December 31, 2020.

Repossessed assets totaled $11.7 million at December 31, 2021, an increase of $0.2 million from $11.5 million at September 30, 2021, and an increase of $10.3 million from $1.4 million at December 31, 2020. Classified assets totaled $300.7 million at December 31, 2021, an increase of $35.8 million from $264.9 million at September 30, 2021, and $77.0 million from $223.7 million at December 31, 2020.

The ratio of classified assets to Tier 1 capital plus the allowance for credit losses, a common regulatory measure of asset quality, was 6.4% at December 31, 2021, compared to 6.3% at September 30, 2021, and 6.5% at December 31, 2020.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures Footnotes

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(1)

We believe this non-GAAP measurement is a key indicator of the earnings power of the Company.

(2)

We believe this non-GAAP ratio provides a useful metric to measure the efficiency of the Company.

(3)

We believe this non-GAAP metric provides an important metric with which to analyze and evaluate financial condition and capital strength. In addition, we believe that use of tangible equity and tangible assets improves the comparability to other institutions that have not engaged in acquisitions that resulted in recorded goodwill and other intangibles.
