TUPELO, Miss., Oct. 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Renasant Corporation (NASDAQ: RNST) (the "Company") today announced its financial results for the third quarter of 2013. Net income for the third quarter of 2013 was $6.6 million, or basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.24, as compared to $7.0 million, or basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.28, for the third quarter of 2012. On September 1, 2013, the Company completed its merger with First M&F Corporation ("M&F"). The Company's 2013 third quarter results include $2.7 million, or $0.10 per share, in after-tax merger expenses associated with the M&F transaction. Excluding merger expenses, net income was $9.3 million, or basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.34, for the third quarter of 2013.

The Company's results of operation do not reflect M&F's results prior to the date of merger completion, but balances for the Company as of September 30, 2013 incorporate the impact of the M&F acquisition, including M&F's $1.4 billion in assets, loans of $891.4 million, $1.3 billion in deposits, 35 branches, 8 insurance offices and $115.1 million in goodwill and other intangibles as of the completion date of the merger. The Company issued approximately 6.2 million shares of stock in connection with the acquisition. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed are recorded at estimated fair value and subject to change pending finalization of all valuations.

"We are pleased with our third quarter performance which includes the completion of the M&F merger, our largest acquisition to date. In addition to the merger, we continued to experience strong loan growth and significant improvements to our credit risk profile," commented Renasant Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, E. Robinson McGraw.

Total assets as of September 30, 2013, were approximately $5.74 billion, as compared to $4.18 billion at December 31, 2012.

At September 30, 2013, the Company's Tier 1 leverage capital ratio was 8.66%, its Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio was 11.40%, and its total risk-based capital ratio was 12.53%. The Company's tangible common equity ratio was 6.49%. All of the Company's regulatory capital ratios continued to be in excess of the regulatory minimums required to be classified as "well-capitalized."

Total loans, which include both loans covered and not covered under FDIC loss-share agreements and the M&F acquired loans, were approximately $3.88 billion at September 30, 2013, as compared to $2.81 billion at December 31, 2012. Excluding loans from M&F, loans not covered under FDIC loss-share agreements were $2.79 billion at September 30, 2013, an increase of 8.59% from December 31, 2012.

Total deposits, which include deposits from M&F, were $4.83 billion at September 30, 2013, as compared to $3.46 billion at December 31, 2012. The Company's cost of funds decreased 11 basis points to 0.57% for the third quarter of 2013, as compared to 0.68% for the third quarter of 2012.

Net interest income increased to $38.7 million for the third quarter of 2013, from $33.1 million for the third quarter of 2012. Net interest margin was 3.86% for the third quarter of 2013, as compared to 3.94% for the third quarter of 2012.

"The competitive pricing pressure on loan growth, which continues to cause margin compression, remains a real risk. To combat the long-term interest rate risks associated with low rate loans for extended periods of time, we have made a concerted effort to shorten our repricing terms while maintaining new and renewed rates. As a result of these efforts, the yields on our new and renewed loan production improved slightly during the third quarter of 2013 as compared to recent quarters while reducing the weighted average repricing term," stated McGraw.

Noninterest income was $18.9 million for the third quarter of 2013, as compared to $18.0 million for the third quarter of 2012. Gain on sale of mortgage loans was $2.8 million for the third quarter of 2013, as compared to $4.4 million for the third quarter of 2012, due primarily to a decline in the mortgage pipeline and increased pricing pressure as a result of a slowdown in refinance volume caused by the recent increase in mortgage rates.

"While we experienced a slowdown in mortgage volume in the third quarter, as compared to exceptionally strong recent quarters, we have seen both our mortgage pipeline and competitor pricing stabilize. We were particularly pleased to see our purchase volume increase 41% from the third quarter of 2012, as we continue to see results from our efforts to increase both retail and wholesale purchase volume to offset the reduction in refinance volume," stated McGraw.

Noninterest expense was $46.6 million for the third quarter of 2013, as compared to $38.7 million for the third quarter of 2012. The increase in noninterest expense during the third quarter of 2013, as compared to the third quarter of 2012, is primarily attributable to $3.8 million in pre-tax merger expenses and additional personnel related to the new lines of business and in-market lift outs.

The Company's loans and other real estate owned ("OREO") acquired in FDIC-assisted transactions are recorded at fair value. Furthermore, the loss-share agreements with the FDIC, as well as adjustments to the balances of these acquired assets to record them at fair value, mitigate the impact of further losses on these assets. Nonperforming loans and OREO covered under loss-share agreements totaled $50.1 million and $16.6 million, respectively, at September 30, 2013, combining for a decrease of approximately 32.47% in nonperforming assets subject to FDIC loss-share agreements from December 31, 2012. The remaining information in this release on nonperforming loans, OREO, and the related asset quality ratios exclude the assets covered under loss-share agreements.

The Company recorded a provision for loan losses of $2.3 million for the third quarter of 2013, as compared to $4.6 million for the third quarter of 2012. Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans were 0.38% for the third quarter of 2013, as compared to 0.78% for the third quarter of 2012. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans, including the acquired M&F loans, was 1.25% at September 30, 2013, as compared to 1.72% at December 31, 2012. Excluding the acquired M&F loans, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of loans was 1.66% at September 30, 2013.

Nonperforming loans were $30.9 million at September 30, 2013, which include $8.8 million of nonperforming loans from M&F, as compared to $30.2 million at December 31, 2012. The Company's coverage ratio, or its allowance for loan losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans, was 149.9% as of September 30, 2013, as compared to 146.9% as of December 31, 2012. Excluding M&F's nonperforming loans, which are carried at fair value and, therefore, do not have any allowance for loan losses assigned at September 30, 2013, the coverage ratio was 209.5%.

OREO, including $13.2 million in OREO acquired from M&F, was $40.6 million at September 30, 2013, as compared to $44.7 million at December 31, 2012. Excluding the OREO acquired from M&F, OREO totaled $27.4 million at September 30, 2013, a 38.8% decrease from year end. During the third quarter, the Company sold approximately $6.4 million in OREO.

"As we move towards full integration of M&F in the fourth quarter, we remain excited about our new market entries, additional banking talent and legacy market expansions provided by this merger," stated McGraw. "In addition, the M&F merger complements our other external growth initiatives, all of which will continue to enhance our profitability."
