WEBSTER REPORTS
SECOND QUARTER 2023 EPS OF $1.32; ADJUSTED EPS OF $1.50
STAMFORD, Conn., July 20, 2023 - Webster Financial Corporation ("Webster") (NYSE: WBS), the holding company for Webster Bank, N.A. and its HSA Bank division, today announced net income available to common stockholders of $230.8 million, or $1.32 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to $178.1 million, or $1.00 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2022.
Second quarter 2023 results include $40.8 million pre-tax ($29.9 million after tax), or $0.181 per diluted share, of charges related to the merger with Sterling Bancorp on January 31, 2022 ("the merger"). Excluding these charges, adjusted earnings per diluted share would have been $1.501 for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.
"We are proud to deliver consistent earnings during a challenging period for the banking industry," said John R. Ciulla, president and chief executive officer. "Our unique and resilient funding profile, robust capital position, and talented colleagues enabled our performance in the quarter and position us well for the future. Consistent with our conservative risk-management approach, we increased on balance sheet liquidity during the quarter given the events of March. This had a temporary 12 basis point impact on the net interest margin, but was neutral to net interest income."
Highlights for the second quarter of 2023:
Revenue of $673.2 million.
Period end loans and leases balance of $51.6 billion, up $0.7 billion or 1.4 percent linked quarter; 81.1 percent commercial loans and leases, 18.9 percent consumer loans, and a loan to deposit ratio of 87.9 percent.
Period end deposits balance of $58.7 billion, up $3.5 billion or 6.2 percent linked quarter.
Provision for credit losses totaled $31.5 million.
Return on average assets of 1.23 percent; adjusted 1.39 percent1.
Return on average tangible common equity of 18.12 percent1; adjusted 20.40 percent1.
Net interest margin of 3.35 percent, down 31 basis points from prior quarter.
Common equity tier 1 ratio of 10.66 percent.
Efficiency ratio of 42.20 percent1.
Tangible common equity ratio of 7.23 percent1.
"Webster’s unique funding profile continues to be a differentiator, as we grew our deposits 6% over the prior quarter and increased our available liquidity," said Glenn MacInnes, executive vice president and chief financial officer. "A resilient and flexible balance sheet should allow us to consistently deliver strong returns."

Net interest income increased $50.2 million, to $383.6 million, primarily driven by organic loan growth and the impact of the higher rate environment.

Non-interest expense increased $7.9 million, to $110.6 million, primarily resulting from continued investments in technology and talent to support balance sheet growth.

Non-interest income decreased $3.5 million, to $23.0 million, primarily due to lower client account fees. Non-interest expense increased $5.1 million, to $42.6 million, primarily due to higher compensation and benefits expense, service contract expense related to account growth, and the continued investment in our user experience build out.

a2022wfcpressreleaseheader.jpg
Consolidated financial performance:
Quarterly net interest income compared to the second quarter of 2022:
Net interest income was $583.8 million compared to $486.7 million.
Net interest margin was 3.35 percent compared to 3.28 percent. The yield on interest-earning assets increased by 186 basis points, and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased by 191 basis points.
Average interest-earning assets totaled $70.1 billion and increased by $10.0 billion, or 16.7 percent.
Average loans and leases totaled $51.2 billion and increased by $7.1 billion, or 16.0 percent.
Average deposits totaled $58.6 billion and increased by $5.2 billion, or 9.7 percent.
Quarterly provision for credit losses:
The provision for credit losses was $31.5 million in the quarter, contributing to a $15.0 million increase in the allowance for credit losses on loans and leases. The provision also reflects a decrease in the reserves on unfunded loan commitments of $3.7 million. The provision for credit losses was $46.7 million in the prior quarter, and $12.2 million a year ago.
Net charge-offs were $20.3 million, compared to $24.5 million in the prior quarter, and $9.6 million a year ago. The ratio of net charge-offs to average loans and leases was 0.16 percent, compared to 0.20 percent in the prior quarter, and 0.09 percent a year ago.
The allowance for credit losses on loans and leases represented 1.22 percent of total loans and leases, compared to 1.21 percent at March 31, 2023, and 1.25 percent at June 30, 2022. The allowance represented 287 percent of nonperforming loans and leases at June 30, 2023, compared to 332 percent at March 31, 2023, and 231 percent at June 30, 2022.
Quarterly non-interest income compared to the second quarter of 2022:
Total non-interest income was $89.4 million compared to $120.9 million, a decrease of $31.5 million. The decrease primarily reflects lower client hedging activity, lower prepayment and other loan related servicing fees, lower client deposit fees, and the outsourcing of the consumer investment services platform.
5


a2022wfcpressreleaseheader.jpg
Quarterly non-interest expense compared to the second quarter of 2022:
Total non-interest expense was $344.1 million compared to $358.2 million, a decrease of $14.1 million. Total non-interest expense includes a net $40.8 million of merger charges, compared to a net $66.5 million of merger and strategic initiatives charges a year ago. Excluding those charges, total non-interest expense increased $11.6 million. The increase reflects increases in deposit insurance, investments in technology, including the HSA and interLINK acquisitions, and employee benefits related to medical claims, offset by expense benefits from the merger and outsourcing of the consumer investments services platform.
Quarterly income taxes compared to the second quarter of 2022:
Income tax expense was $62.6 million compared to $54.8 million, and the effective tax rate was 21.0 percent compared to 23.1 percent. The lower effective tax rate in the current period reflects higher levels of tax-exempt interest income and tax credits and lower state and local tax, partially offset by the effects of higher pre-tax income and nondeductible FDIC premiums in 2023 compared to 2022.
Investment securities:
Total investment securities, net were $14.7 billion, compared to $14.9 billion at March 31, 2023, and $15.2 billion at June 30, 2022.

The carrying value of the held-to-maturity portfolio does not reflect $877.3 million of net unrealized losses, compared to $742.8 million at March 31, 2023, and $539.4 million at June 30, 2022.
Loans and leases:
Total loans and leases were $51.6 billion, compared to $50.9 billion at March 31, 2023, and $45.6 billion at June 30, 2022. Compared to March 31, 2023, commercial loans and leases increased by $442.1 million, commercial real estate loans increased by $147.3 million, residential mortgages increased by $138.6 million, while consumer loans decreased by $28.5 million.
Compared to a year ago, commercial loans and leases increased by $2.7 billion, commercial real estate loans increased by $2.5 billion, residential mortgages increased by $916.5 million, while consumer loans decreased by $153.4 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to results presented in accordance with GAAP, this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of net income, ROATCE, and other performance ratios, in each case as adjusted, is included in the accompanying selected financial highlights table.

Webster believes that providing certain non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with information useful in understanding its financial performance, performance trends, and financial position. Webster utilizes these measures for internal planning and forecasting purposes. Webster, as well as securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties, also use these measures to compare peer company operating performance. Webster believes that its presentation and discussion, together with the accompanying reconciliations, provides a complete understanding of factors and trends affecting its business and allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to management.

These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures and results, and Webster strongly encourages investors to review its consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies’ non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names.

WEBSTER FINANCIAL CORPORATION
Reconciliations to GAAP Financial Measures
The Company evaluates its business based on certain ratios that utilize non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides additional clarity in assessing the operating results and financial position of the Company. Other companies may define or calculate supplemental financial data differently.
The efficiency ratio, which represents the costs expended to generate a dollar of revenue, is calculated excluding certain non-operational items. The return on average tangible common stockholders' equity (ROATCE) represents net income available to common stockholders, adjusted for the tax-effected amortization of intangible assets, as a percentage of average stockholders’ equity less average preferred stock and average goodwill and intangible assets. The tangible equity ratio represents stockholders’ equity less goodwill and intangible assets divided by total assets less goodwill and intangible assets. The tangible common equity ratio represents stockholders’ equity less preferred stock and goodwill and intangible assets divided by total assets less goodwill and intangible assets. Tangible book value per common share represents stockholders’ equity less preferred stock and goodwill and intangible assets divided by common shares outstanding at the end of the period. Core deposits reflect total deposits less certificates of deposit and brokered certificates of deposit. Adjusted net income available to common stockholders, adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS), adjusted ROATCE, and adjusted return on average assets (ROAA) are calculated excluding after tax merger-related expenses.
See the tables below for reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures with financial measures defined by GAAP.
