KANSAS CITY, Mo.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Commerce Bancshares, Inc. announced earnings of $.84 per share for the three months ended December 31, 2023, compared to $1.00 per share in the same quarter last year and $.92 per share in the third quarter of 2023. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2023 amounted to $109.2 million, compared to $131.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 and $120.6 million in the prior quarter.
“We are pleased with our fourth quarter results,» said John Kemper, President and Chief Executive Officer. “These results reflect the strength of our core deposit base, the impact of higher earning asset yields, and the contribution from key non-interest income categories, notably trust, bank card and deposit fees. Net interest income was generally flat to the previous quarter, while the net interest margin expanded six basis points. Non-interest income comprised 36.8% of total revenue. Our results included a one-time FDIC special assessment of $16 million.
“On the balance sheet,” Kemper added, “the final tranches of FHLB advances and brokered deposits matured during the quarter as planned. More than offsetting these brokered deposit maturities, we saw deposit growth across our three business segments of $674 million, resulting in a period end net deposit increase of $273 million.
“We continue to maintain ample levels of liquidity and capital, which positions us well moving into 2024. Book value per share increased 14.4% during the quarter as interest rates declined. Credit quality of the loan portfolio remains strong with non-accrual loans at .04% of total loans, down one basis point from the previous quarter and prior year.”
Fourth Quarter 2023 Financial Highlights:
- Net interest income was $248.4 million, a $126 thousand decrease from the prior quarter. The net yield on interest earning assets increased 6 basis points to 3.17%.
- Non-interest income totaled $144.9 million, an increase of $8.1 million compared to the same quarter last year.
- Non-interest expense totaled $251.3 million, an increase of $34.5 million compared to the same quarter last year, mostly due to a $16.0 million accrual for a one-time FDIC insurance special assessment.
- Average loan balances totaled $17.1 billion, an increase of $89.8 million, or .5%, over the prior quarter.
- Total average available for sale debt securities decreased 6.2%, or $633.9 million, from the prior quarter to $9.6 billion, at fair value. During the fourth quarter of 2023, the unrealized loss on available for sale debt securities decreased $376.5 million to $1.2 billion, at period end.
- Total average deposits decreased $356.2 million, or 1.4%, compared to the prior quarter, which reflected a payoff of the last tranche of brokered deposits issued during 2023. The average rate paid on interest bearing deposits in the current quarter was 1.93%.
- The ratio of annualized net loan charge-offs to average loans was .19% compared to .23% in the prior quarter.
- The allowance for credit losses on loans increased $151 thousand during the fourth quarter to $162.4 million, and the ratio of the allowance for credit losses on loans to total loans was .94% at December 31, 2023, compared to .95% at September 30, 2023.
- Total assets at December 31, 2023 were $31.7 billion, an increase of $324.4 million, or 1.0%, over the prior quarter.
- For the quarter, the return on average assets was 1.38%, the return on average equity was 16.48%, and the efficiency ratio was 63.8%.
