Marshall & Ilsley Corporation (NYSE: MI) (M&I) today reported a 2010 first quarter net loss of $140.5 million, or $0.27 per share, as compared to a net loss of $116.9 million, or $0.44 per share, in the first quarter of 2009.
"Our first quarter results reinforce our confidence that a credit quality recovery is underway at M&I," said Mark Furlong, president and CEO, Marshall & Ilsley Corporation. "We anticipate a relative stabilization of credit quality trends, reflecting sustained improvement in early-stage delinquencies, reduced inflows, and continued aggressive strategies to work out or sell problem credits. We are pleased with the Company's progress, but realize hard work remains to improve credit quality. M&I remains committed to returning the Company to profitability as soon as possible."
Net Interest Income
The Corporation's net interest income (FTE) was $409.1 million for the first quarter of 2010, up $3.0 million or 1 percent compared to the fourth quarter of 2009. The net interest margin was 3.13 percent, up 18 basis points from the previous quarter. During the first quarter of 2010, M&I's net interest margin benefited from lower funding costs and partial deployment of excess liquidity.
Asset Quality
M&I continued to proactively address credit quality in the first quarter of 2010 by identifying and writing down troubled assets, selling problem loans, reducing exposure to construction and development loans, and building loan loss reserves.
-- Provision for loan and lease losses was $458.1 million in the first
quarter of 2010, down $180.9 million or 28 percent versus the fourth
quarter of 2009. Net charge-offs for the period were $423.4 million,
falling $148.9 million or 26 percent compared to the prior quarter.
-- Construction and development (C&D) exposure declined from the fourth
quarter of 2009 to slightly less than 12.0 percent of total loans.
Arizona C&D exposure fell 69 percent since the fourth quarter of 2007.
-- Allowance for loan and lease losses at quarter-end was over $1.5
billion, or 3.55 percent of total loans and leases, an increase of 20
basis points from the prior quarter.
Asset quality trends demonstrated further stabilization through lower early stage delinquencies, nonperforming loan inflows, and nonperforming loans.
-- Early stage delinquencies fell slightly from the fourth quarter of 2009
- the fourth consecutive quarterly decline and the lowest level since
December 2007.
-- Nonperforming loan inflows dropped 29 percent from the prior quarter to
$674 million - the lowest level since third quarter 2008.
-- Nonperforming loans decreased $91 million, or 4 percent from the fourth
quarter of 2009 - the third consecutive quarterly decline.
-- Nonperforming loans and leases were 4.58 percent (or 2.93 percent
excluding nonperforming loans and leases less than ninety days past due)
of total loans and leases at March 31, 2010, compared to 4.62 percent at
December 31, 2009.
Non-Interest Income
The Corporation's non-interest income was $227.6 million for the first quarter of 2010 compared to $176.7 million for the first quarter of 2009. A gain on sale of M&I's merchant processing portfolio of $48.3 million was unique to the current quarter. Wealth Management revenue was $68.1 million for the current quarter, exceeding the same quarter last year by $5.4 million or 9 percent. Assets under management and assets under administration were $32.7 billion and $124.6 billion, respectively, at March 31, 2010, compared to $29.7 billion and $101.5 billion, respectively, at March 31, 2009.
Non-Interest Expense
M&I's non-interest expense was $371.9 million for the first quarter of 2010 compared to $345.5 million for the first quarter of 2009. The Corporation's non-interest expense was down $37.5 million or 9 percent versus the prior quarter. Credit-related expenses (meaning expenses associated with collection efforts and carrying nonperforming assets) were $46.5 million for the current quarter versus $42.0 million in the same period last year and $69.1 million in the prior quarter. After adjusting for certain net credit-related expenses and other one-time items, M&I's efficiency ratio was 56.0 percent in the current quarter.
Loan and Deposit Growth
M&I's average loans and leases totaled $43.5 billion for the first quarter of 2010, decreasing $6.3 billion or 13 percent compared to the first quarter of 2009. When adjusted for the targeted reduction in the Corporation's construction and development portfolio, loans fell $3.0 billion or 7 percent versus the same period last year. Loan balances continued to be negatively impacted by lower utilization rates on commercial lines of credit and the depressed real estate markets.
The Corporation's average deposits totaled $41.9 billion for the first quarter of 2010, rising $2.2 billion or 6 percent versus the first quarter of 2009. M&I's core deposits posted strong growth over the past year, reflecting expanded product offerings. The Corporation's average noninterest bearing deposits totaled $7.8 billion for the first quarter of 2010, increasing $1.3 billion or 21 percent compared to the first quarter of 2009. M&I's average savings accounts totaled $2.6 billion for the first quarter of 2010, increasing $1.7 billion or 191 percent compared to the first quarter of 2009.
Balance Sheet and Capital Management
The Corporation's consolidated assets and total equity were $56.6 billion and $6.9 billion, respectively, at March 31, 2010, compared to $61.8 billion and $6.3 billion, respectively, at March 31, 2009. There were 527.1 million common shares outstanding at March 31, 2010, versus 265.7 million outstanding at March 31, 2009. In the first quarter of 2010, M&I's net loss included $25.1 million or $0.05 per share for dividends on the Corporation's Senior Preferred Stock, Series B, owned by the U.S. Treasury under the Capital Purchase Program.
M&I's tangible common equity ratio was 8.1 percent at March 31, 2010, compared to 6.4 percent at March 31, 2009.
