BLOOMINGTON, Ill., Jan. 27, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HBT Financial, Inc. (NASDAQ: HBT) (the “Company” or “HBT Financial” or “HBT”), the holding company for Heartland Bank and Trust Company, today reported net income of $13.6 million, or $0.47 diluted earnings per share, for the fourth quarter of 2021. This compares to net income of $13.7 million, or $0.50 diluted earnings per share, for the third quarter of 2021, and net income of $12.6 million, or $0.46 diluted earnings per share, for the fourth quarter of 2020.
Fred L. Drake, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of HBT Financial, said, “Our 2021 performance is the result of strong execution on the strategies that have made HBT Financial a consistently high performing company. We had an exceptionally strong fourth quarter that started with the completion of the NXT Bancorporation acquisition and the expansion of our franchise into Iowa. The larger commercial banking team and presence in new markets provided from this acquisition has had the positive impact on loan growth that we anticipated. Excluding PPP loans, we had 9% organic growth in total loans during the fourth quarter with well-balanced contributions coming from all areas of our lending. The higher level of loan growth enabled us to begin redeploying more of our excess liquidity into higher yielding earning assets, which will positively impact our net interest income and net interest margin going forward. We anticipate delivering another strong performance in 2022 resulting from our loan production capabilities, the accretive benefits of the NXT acquisition, and a balance sheet that is well positioned to benefit from rising interest rates. With the strength of our balance sheet and consistently high level of profitability, we expect to continue returning capital to shareholders through our stock repurchase program and our quarterly cash dividend, which has been increased to $0.16 per share to start 2022.”
Adjusted Net Income
In addition to reporting GAAP results, the Company believes adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share, which adjust for the additional C Corp equivalent tax expense for periods prior to October 11, 2019, acquisition expenses, branch closure expenses, net earnings (losses) from closed or sold operations, charges related to termination of certain employee benefit plans, realized gains (losses) on sales of securities, and mortgage servicing rights fair value adjustments, provide investors with additional insight into its operational performance. The Company reported adjusted net income of $14.2 million, or $0.49 adjusted diluted earnings per share, for the fourth quarter of 2021. This compares to adjusted net income of $14.5 million, or $0.53 adjusted diluted earnings per share, for the third quarter of 2021, and adjusted net income of $12.4 million, or $0.45 adjusted diluted earnings per share, for the fourth quarter of 2020 (see "Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures" tables).
NXT Bancorporation, Inc. Acquisition
On October 1, 2021, HBT completed its previously announced acquisition of NXT Bancorporation, Inc. (NXT), the holding company for NXT Bank. The acquisition expands HBT’s footprint into Eastern Iowa with four locations that began operating as branches of Heartland Bank and Trust Company in December 2021. After considering business combination accounting adjustments, NXT added total assets of $234 million, total loans of $195 million, and total deposits of $182 million.
Cash consideration of $10.6 million and stock consideration of approximately 1.8 million shares of HBT common stock resulted in aggregate consideration of $39.9 million. Goodwill of $5.7 million was recorded in the acquisition.
Acquisition-related expenses totaled $1.4 million during 2021, including $0.9 million during the fourth quarter of 2021 and $0.4 million during the third quarter of 2021. Acquisition-related expenses consisted primarily of investment banker fees, legal fees, and data processing expenses.
Cash Dividend
On January 25, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.16 per share on the Company’s common stock (the “Dividend”). The Dividend is payable on February 15, 2022 to shareholders of record as of February 8, 2022. This represents an increase of $0.01 from the previous quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share.
Mr. Drake noted, “Our strong and consistent financial performance enables us to increase our quarterly cash dividend while maintaining sufficient capital to support our organic and acquisitive growth. Our quarterly dividend remains an important tool for enhancing the total return that we deliver for shareholders, while helping the Company to efficiently manage its capital.”
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $32.9 million, an increase of 7.0% from $30.7 million for the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in average loans due to the NXT acquisition and organic loan growth. This was partially offset by Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan fees recognized as interest income decreasing to $1.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $3.0 million during the third quarter of 2021.
Relative to the fourth quarter of 2020, net interest income increased $3.7 million, or 12.7%. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in average interest-earning assets. PPP loan fees recognized as loan interest income were $1.2 million during the fourth quarter of 2020.
Net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2021 was 3.17%, nearly unchanged from the third quarter of 2021. Lower yields on loans and securities were mostly offset by a more favorable interest-earning asset mix.
Relative to the fourth quarter of 2020, net interest margin decreased from 3.31%. The decrease was primarily due to a less favorable interest-earning asset mix, with increased balances being held in cash and lower-yielding securities.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $9.4 million, an increase of 11.5% from $8.4 million for the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to the third quarter results including impairment losses of $0.6 million related to our branch rationalization plan which was completed in the third quarter of 2021. Additionally, wealth management fees increased $0.3 million, primarily due to increased fees from farm management services and higher values of assets under management during the fourth quarter of 2021 relative to the third quarter of 2021. Partially offsetting this improvement was a $0.3 million decrease in gains on sale of mortgage loans due to a lower level of mortgage refinancing activity.
Relative to the fourth quarter of 2020, noninterest income decreased 15.7% from $11.1 million, primarily attributable to a $2.1 million decline in gains on sale of mortgage loans due to a lower level of mortgage refinancing activity. Partially offsetting this decline was a $0.4 million increase in card income as a result of increased card transaction volume driven by the full reopening of Illinois following COVID-19 prevention measures.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2021 was $24.4 million, an increase of 10.0% from $22.2 million for the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to the NXT acquisition, which contributed to a higher base level of noninterest expense, as well as acquisition-related expenses increasing to $0.9 million during the fourth quarter of 2021 from $0.4 million during the third quarter of 2021.
Relative to the fourth quarter of 2020, noninterest expense increased 7.6% from $22.7 million. The increase was also primarily attributable to the higher base level of noninterest expense following the NXT acquisition and acquisition-related expenses.
Loan Portfolio
Total loans outstanding, before allowance for loan losses, were $2.50 billion at December 31, 2021, compared with $2.15 billion at September 30, 2021 and $2.25 billion at December 31, 2020. The $351.9 million increase in loans from September 30, 2021 included $194.6 million of loans from the NXT acquisition and a $30.3 million reduction in PPP loan balances. Excluding the impact of acquired NXT and PPP loans, loans increased by $187.6 million, or 9.0%, linked quarter with growth across every category led by increases of $58.2 million in construction & land development, $31.1 million in commercial & industrial, $25.8 million in commercial real estate - non-owner occupied, $25.2 million in municipal, consumer, and other, and $21.2 million in multi-family loans.
Deposits
Total deposits were $3.74 billion at December 31, 2021, compared with $3.42 billion at September 30, 2021 and $3.13 billion at December 31, 2020. The $318.6 million increase was primarily attributable to the $181.6 million of deposits acquired from NXT and increased balances held in existing interest-bearing demand and noninterest-bearing accounts.
Asset Quality
Nonperforming loans totaled $2.8 million, or 0.11% of total loans, at December 31, 2021, compared with $5.5 million, or 0.26% of total loans, at September 30, 2021, and $10.0 million, or 0.44% of total loans, at December 31, 2020. The $2.7 million decrease in nonperforming loans from September 30, 2021 was primarily attributable to the partial pay down and return to accrual status of one relationship which totaled $1.8 million at September 30, 2021.
The Company recorded a negative provision for loan losses of $0.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to a negative provision for loan losses of $1.7 million for the third quarter of 2021. The negative provision was primarily due to a $0.9 million decrease in specific reserves on loans individually evaluated for impairment.
Net charge-offs for the fourth quarter of 2021 were $82 thousand, or 0.01% of average loans on an annualized basis, compared to net recoveries of $21 thousand, or less than 1 basis point of average loans on an annualized basis, for the third quarter of 2021, and net charge-offs of $0.2 million, or 0.04% of average loans on an annualized basis, for the fourth quarter of 2020.
The Company’s allowance for loan losses was 0.96% of total loans and 861.32% of nonperforming loans at December 31, 2021, compared with 1.16% of total loans and 449.73% of nonperforming loans at September 30, 2021.
Capital
At December 31, 2021, the Company exceeded all regulatory capital requirements under Basel III and was considered to be “well-capitalized,” as summarized in the following table:
| Well Capitalized | ||||
| December 31, | Regulatory | |||

| Tangible common equity to tangible assets (1) | 8.89 | % | N/A | |

(1) The Company has granted certain restricted stock units that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividend equivalents. Such restricted stock units are considered participating securities. As such, we have included these restricted stock units in the calculation of basic earnings per share and calculate basic earnings per share using the two-class method. The two-class method of computing earnings per share is an earnings allocation formula that determines earnings per share for each class of common stock and participating security according to dividends declared (or accumulated) and participation rights in undistributed earnings.
