BANKUNITED, INC. BankUnited, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE:BKU) today announced financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014.
For the quarter ended December 31, 2014, the Company reported net income of $46.8 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, as compared to $52.4 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2013.
For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company reported net income of $204.2 million, or $1.95 per diluted share, generating a return on average stockholders’ equity of 10.13% and a return on average assets of 1.21%. The Company reported net income of $208.9 million, or $2.01 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2013.
John Kanas, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “As predicted, the Company achieved record loan and lease growth this quarter driven by impressive economic performance in both the Florida and New York markets.”
Performance Highlights
- New loans and leases, including equipment under operating lease, grew by $1.5 billion during the fourth quarter of 2014. For the year ended December 31, 2014, new loans and leases increased by $4.1 billion, excluding the impact of the sale of $303 million of indirect auto loans in the second quarter of 2014.
- Total deposits increased by $678 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 to $13.5 billion, reflecting growth across all deposit categories. For the year ended December 31, 2014, total deposits grew by $3.0 billion.
- Net interest income increased by $7.2 million to $171.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 from $164.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2013. Interest income increased by $11.6 million primarily as a result of an increase in the average balance of loans outstanding, partially offset by a decline in the yield on loans. An increase in the average balance of investment securities also contributed to the increase in interest income. Interest expense increased by $4.3 million due primarily to an increase in average interest bearing liabilities, offset to a small degree by a decline in the cost of interest bearing liabilities.
- The net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, was 4.26% for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 compared to 5.24% for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 and 4.58% for the immediately preceding quarter ended September 30, 2014. The net interest margin continues to be impacted by the origination of new loans at current market yields lower than those on loans acquired in the FSB Acquisition (as defined below).
- Earnings for the fourth quarter of 2014 benefited from a reduction in the effective income tax rate resulting primarily from changes in certain state income tax positions.
- Book value and tangible book value per common share grew to $20.19 and $19.52, respectively, at December 31, 2014.

The Company's portfolio of equipment under operating lease grew by $72 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 to $315 million.
Asset Quality
Asset quality remains strong. The ratio of non-performing, non-covered loans to total non-covered loans declined to 0.29% at December 31, 2014 from 0.31% at December 31, 2013. The ratio of total non-performing loans to total loans declined to 0.31% at December 31, 2014 from 0.39% at December 31, 2013. The ratio of the allowance for non-covered loan and lease losses to non-performing, non-covered loans increased to 281.54% at December 31, 2014 from 246.73% at December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2014, non-performing assets totaled $52.8 million, including $13.8 million of other real estate owned (“OREO”), down from $76.2 million, including $40.6 million of OREO, at December 31, 2013. At December 31, 2014, 38% of total non-performing assets were covered assets.
The provision for loan losses for the three months and year ended December 31, 2014 reflects continued growth in the new loan portfolio. For the quarters ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded provisions for loan losses of $20.5 million and $12.5 million, respectively. Of these amounts, provisions of $21.6 million and $13.3 million, respectively, related to new loans, and recoveries of $(1.0) million and $(0.8) million, respectively, related to covered loans. The peer group net charge-off rates and certain of the qualitative factors applied in the calculation of general reserves for new loans increased during the three months ended December 31, 2014 while those loss factors declined during the three months ended December 31, 2013. This contributed to an increase in the provision related to new loans for the three months ended December 31, 2014 when compared to the three months ended December 31, 2013.
For the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded provisions for loan losses of $41.5 million and $32.0 million, respectively. Of these amounts, provisions of $41.7 million and $33.7 million, respectively, related to new loans, and recoveries of $(0.2) million and $(1.7) million, respectively, related to covered loans. The increase in the provision related to new loans for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to 2013 was primarily due to increases in qualitative reserve factors, partially offset by a net decrease in peer group net charge-off rates. For the year ended December 31, 2013 decreases in peer group net charge-off rates were largely offset by increased charge-offs and specific reserves.

Credit risk continues to be limited, though to a declining extent, by the Loss Sharing Agreements with the FDIC. At December 31, 2014, covered loans represented 8% of the total loan portfolio.
Deposits
At December 31, 2014, deposits totaled $13.5 billion compared to $10.5 billion at December 31, 2013. Deposits in New York totaled $1.6 billion and $800 million, respectively, at December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013. The average cost of deposits was 0.61% for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 compared to 0.63% for the quarter ended December 31, 2013 and 0.61% for the year ended December 31, 2014 compared to 0.65% for the year ended December 31, 2013. Excluding the impact of hedge accounting and accretion of fair value adjustments, the average cost of deposits was 0.56% for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014.
Net interest income
Net interest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 increased to $171.5 million from $164.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2013. Net interest income for the year ended December 31, 2014 was $677.1 million as compared to $646.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. Increases in interest income were partially offset by increases in interest expense. Interest income increased primarily as a result of an increase in the average balance of loans outstanding, partially offset by a decline in the yield on loans. Interest expense increased due primarily to an increase in average interest bearing liabilities, offset to a small degree by a decline in the cost of interest bearing liabilities.
The Company’s net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, was 4.26% for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 as compared to 5.24% for the quarter ended December 31, 2013. Net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, was 4.61% for the year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to 5.73% for the year ended December 31, 2013. Significant factors impacting this expected trend in net interest margin for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014 included:
- The tax-equivalent yield on loans declined to 5.89% and 6.44%, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014 compared to 7.80% and 9.18% for the corresponding periods in 2013, primarily because new loans, originated at yields lower than those on loans acquired in the FSB Acquisition, comprised a greater percentage of total loans.
- The yield on new loans was 3.52% and 3.56%, respectively for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014 compared to 3.60% and 3.76% for the corresponding periods in 2013, primarily reflecting the impact of lower interest rates on new production over the last year.
- The yield on loans acquired in the FSB Acquisition increased to 27.15% for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 from 26.59% for the corresponding period in 2013. For the year ended December 31, 2014, the yield on loans acquired in the FSB Acquisition increased to 27.09% from 26.02% for the year ended December 31, 2013.
- The average rate on interest bearing liabilities declined to 0.86% and 0.87%, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014 compared to 0.91% and 0.94% for the corresponding periods in 2013, primarily due to lower rates on time deposits and FHLB advances.
- Non-interest bearing deposits comprised a greater percentage of average total deposits for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2013. Average non-interest bearing deposits were 20% of average total deposits for both the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014, respectively, as compared to 19% and 17% of average total deposits for the corresponding periods in 2013.
Interest income included proceeds of $3.0 million and $30.9 million, respectively, from the sale of loans from a pool of ACI loans carried at zero for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014, and $11.7 million and $50.6 million for the corresponding periods in 2013. The impact of sales of loans from this pool is not expected to be significant in future periods.
The Company’s net interest margin continues to be impacted by reclassifications from non-accretable difference to accretable yield on ACI loans. Non-accretable difference at acquisition represented the difference between the total contractual payments due and the cash flows expected to be received on these loans. The accretable yield on ACI loans represented the amount by which undiscounted expected future cash flows exceeded the recorded investment in the loans. As the Company’s expected cash flows from ACI loans have increased since the FSB Acquisition, the Company has reclassified amounts from non-accretable difference to accretable yield.
Changes in accretable yield on ACI loans for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013 were as follows (in thousands):
| Balance at December 31, 2012 | $ | 1,286,066 | ||
| Reclassifications from non-accretable difference | 282,952 | |||
| Accretion | (410,446 | ) | ||
| Balance at December 31, 2013 | 1,158,572 | |||
| Reclassifications from non-accretable difference | 185,604 | |||
| Accretion | (338,864 | ) | ||
| Balance at December 31, 2014 | $ | 1,005,312 | ||
Non-interest income
Non-interest income totaled $19.0 million and $84.2 million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $21.0 million and $68.0 million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2013.
The consolidated statement of income line items Provision for (recovery of) loan losses for covered loans; Income from resolution of covered assets, net; Gain (loss) on sale of covered loans; Loss on covered investment securities available for sale and Gain on covered OREO relate to transactions in the covered assets. The line item Net loss on FDIC indemnification represents the mitigating impact of FDIC indemnification on gains and losses arising from these transactions in the covered assets. The impact on pre-tax earnings of these transactions, net of FDIC indemnification, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014 was $1.8 million and $26.0 million, respectively, compared to $6.0 million and $20.4 million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2013.
Income from resolution of covered assets, net was $9.3 million and $49.1 million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $14.5 million and $78.9 million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2013. This decrease in income resulted mainly from lower income from commercial recoveries and residential paid in full resolutions, and is consistent with the continued run-off of covered assets.
The Company recognized net gains (losses) on the sale of covered loans of $(2.2) million and $20.4 million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014, compared to net losses of $(6.8) million and $(16.2) million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2013. Activity for the fourth quarter of 2014 and 2013 consisted of the sale of covered residential loans, which continue to be sold on a quarterly basis, Improvements in the results of those sales primarily reflect improved pricing. The gain for the year ended December 31, 2014 includes a gain of $18.0 million from the sale of covered commercial and consumer loans and commercial OREO in the first quarter of 2014.
Net loss on FDIC indemnification was $6.6 million and $46.4 million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014, compared to $2.9 million and $50.6 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2013. Variances in net loss on FDIC indemnification are directly related to variances in income from resolution of covered assets, the gain (loss) on sale of covered loans, loss on covered investment securities available for sale, the provision for (recovery of) losses on covered loans and gain (loss) on covered OREO.
Income from lease financing increased to $8.9 million and $21.6 million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014 from $3.7 million and $8.2 million, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2013. The increase in income is consistent with the growth in the portfolio of assets under lease.
Non-interest expense
Non-interest expense totaled $108.5 million and $426.5 million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014 as compared to $99.4 million and $364.3 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2013.
Increased compensation and occupancy and equipment expenses for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014 compared to the quarter and year ended December 31, 2013 related to the Company’s overall growth and its expansion into New York.
Amortization of the FDIC indemnification asset was $20.6 million and $69.5 million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014 compared to $15.2 million and $36.9 million, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2013. The amortization rate increased to 8.16% for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 compared to 4.86% for the quarter ended December 31, 2013. As the expected cash flows from ACI loans have increased, expected cash flows from the FDIC indemnification asset have decreased, ultimately resulting in a negative yield on the FDIC indemnification asset.
Provision for income taxes
The effective income tax rate decreased to 23.9% and 30.4%, respectively, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2014 from 28.6% and 34.3% for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2013. These decreases primarily reflect the impact of increases in tax-exempt income, changes in state income tax positions, reductions in liabilities for uncertain state tax positions and benefits resulting from state tax law changes.
Non-GAAP Financial Measure
Tangible book value per common share is a non-GAAP financial measure. Management believes this measure is relevant to understanding the capital position and performance of the Company. Disclosure of this non-GAAP financial measure also provides a meaningful base for comparability to other financial institutions. The following table reconciles the non-GAAP financial measurement of tangible book value per common share to the comparable GAAP financial measurement of book value per common share at December 31, 2014 (in thousands except share and per share data):

About BankUnited, Inc. and the FSB Acquisition
BankUnited, Inc., with total assets of $19.2 billion at December 31, 2014, is the bank holding company of BankUnited, N.A., a national bank headquartered in Miami Lakes, Florida with 100 branches in 15 Florida counties and 6 banking centers in the New York metropolitan area at December 31, 2014.
The Company was organized by a management team led by its Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, John A. Kanas, in 2009. On May 21, 2009, BankUnited acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed all of the non-brokered deposits and substantially all other liabilities of BankUnited, FSB from the FDIC, in a transaction referred to as the FSB Acquisition. Concurrently with the FSB Acquisition, BankUnited entered into two loss sharing agreements, or the Loss Sharing Agreements, which covered certain legacy assets, including the entire legacy loan portfolio and OREO, and certain purchased investment securities. Assets covered by the Loss Sharing Agreements are referred to as “covered assets” (or, in certain cases, “covered loans”). The Loss Sharing Agreements do not apply to subsequently purchased or originated loans (“new loans”) or other assets. Effective May 22, 2014 and consistent with the terms of the Loss Sharing Agreements, loss share coverage was terminated for those commercial loans and OREO and certain investment securities that were previously covered under the Loss Sharing Agreements. Pursuant to the terms of the Loss Sharing Agreements, the covered assets are subject to a stated loss threshold whereby the FDIC will reimburse BankUnited for 80% of losses, including certain interest and expenses, up to the $4.0 billion stated threshold and 95% of losses in excess of the $4.0 billion stated threshold. The Company’s current estimate of cumulative losses on the covered assets is approximately $4.1 billion. The Company has received $2.6 billion from the FDIC in reimbursements under the Loss Sharing Agreements for claims filed for incurred losses as of December 31, 2014.
