FIRST BANCORP. - Net income of $74.7 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $82.6 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2022.
- Income before income taxes of $108.8 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $125.6 million for the first quarter of 2022.
- On a non-GAAP basis, adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income of $118.8 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $111.8 million for the first quarter of 2022.
- Net interest income increased to $196.2 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $185.6 million for the first quarter of 2022, primarily due to the upward repricing of variable-rate commercial loans and interest-bearing cash balances maintained at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the "FED"), as well as a decrease in the premium amortization expense on U.S. agencies mortgage-backed securities ("MBS"). Net interest margin increased to 4.00% for the second quarter of 2022, compared to 3.81% for the first quarter of 2022.
- Provision for credit losses was an expense of $10.0 million ($6.3 million after-tax) or a decrease of $0.05 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2022, reflecting an overall increase in the loan portfolio, mainly in the auto loans and finance lease portfolios, and increased economic uncertainty that is reflected in the forecast of certain macro-economic variables and the related qualitative reserves. The provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2022 was a net benefit of $13.8 million ($8.6 million after-tax) or an increase of $0.07 per diluted share.
- Non-interest income decreased by $2.0 million to $30.9 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $32.9 million for the first quarter of 2022. The decrease was mostly driven by seasonal contingent insurance commissions recognized in the first quarter of 2022.
- Non-interest expenses increased by $1.6 million to $108.3 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $106.7 million for the first quarter of 2022.
- Income tax expense was $34.1 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $43.0 million for the first quarter of 2022. The variance was primarily related to lower pre-tax income when compared to the prior quarter.
-
Credit quality variances:
- Non-performing assets decreased by $9.0 million to $147.5 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to $156.5 million as of March 31, 2022. The decrease was mainly driven by a $4.2 million reduction in nonaccrual residential mortgage loans and a $3.0 million reduction in nonaccrual commercial and construction loans, primarily reflecting payoffs and paydowns received during the second quarter of 2022.
- An annualized net charge-offs to average loans ratio of 0.21% for the second quarter of 2022, compared to 0.24% for the first quarter of 2022.
- Total deposits, excluding brokered CDs and government deposits, decreased by $360.2 million to $14.1 billion as of June 30, 2022, primarily in the Puerto Rico region.
- Government deposits increased in the second quarter by $176.6 million and totaled $3.0 billion as of June 30, 2022, reflecting increases of $98.1 million in the Virgin Islands region, $77.2 million in the Puerto Rico region, and $1.3 million in the Florida region.
- Brokered CDs decreased by $11.7 million during the second quarter to $74.1 million as of June 30, 2022.
- Total loans increased in the second quarter by $103.9 million to $11.2 billion as of June 30, 2022. The variance consisted of increases of $130.7 million in consumer loans and $18.5 million in commercial and construction loans, partially offset by a $45.3 million decrease in residential mortgage loans. Excluding the $40.3 million decrease in the carrying value of the Small Business Administration Paycheck Protection Program ("SBA PPP") loan portfolio, the growth in the commercial and construction loans portfolio was $58.8 million.
- Total loan originations, including refinancings, renewals and draws from existing commitments (other than credit card utilization activity), amounted to $1.4 billion in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $280.8 million compared to the first quarter of 2022. The increase mainly reflects a $237.1 million increase in commercial and construction loan originations and a $39.7 million increase in consumer loan originations.
- During the second quarter of 2022, First BanCorp. repurchased approximately 7.07 million shares of its common stock through open market transactions for a total purchase price of approximately $100 million under the $350 million stock repurchase program announced on April 27, 2022.
- Capital ratios remained higher than required regulatory levels for bank holding companies and well-capitalized banks. Estimated total capital, common equity tier 1 capital ("CET1"), tier 1 capital, and leverage ratios were 19.98%, 17.23%, 17.23%, and 10.18%, respectively, as of June 30, 2022. On a non-GAAP basis, the tangible common equity ratio was 7.67% as of June 30, 2022.
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 22, 2022--First BanCorp. (the "Corporation" or "First BanCorp.") (NYSE: FBP), the bank holding company for FirstBank Puerto Rico ("FirstBank" or "the Bank"), today reported net income of $74.7 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $82.6 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2022, and $70.6 million, or $0.33 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021. Financial results for the second quarter of 2022 include an expense of $10.0 million ($6.3 million after-tax) or a decrease of $0.05 per diluted share recorded to the provision for credit losses, compared to a net benefit of $13.8 million ($8.6 million after-tax) or an increase of $0.07 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2022.
Aurelio Alemán, President and Chief Executive Officer of First BanCorp., commented: "We continued to perform exceptionally well during the second quarter by leveraging our market position to strategically grow the balance sheet and continue improving the banking experience of our customers. We earned $74.7 million or $0.38 per diluted share during the quarter and reached a record pre-tax pre-provision income of $118.8 million, up 6.2% when compared to the first quarter of 2022 and 23% when compared to the second quarter last year. These results were achieved within the context of an uncertain global economic backdrop and highlight the strength of our franchise.
We continued to register loan growth across our targeted business segments during the quarter. Loan portfolio balances, excluding SBA PPP loans, grew by $144.2 million when compared to the first quarter of 2022, driven by increases of $130.7 million in consumer loans and $58.8 million in construction and commercial loans, partially offset by a decrease of $45.3 million in residential mortgages. Total loan originations, excluding credit card utilization activity, were very strong at $1.4 billion, an increase of $280.8 million when compared to the first quarter of 2022 primarily attributed to higher commercial and consumer loan originations. We expect that healthy loan pipelines coupled with steady recovery trends in our main market should result in sustained loan originations throughout the second half of the year. Core deposits, net of government deposits and brokered CDs, decreased by $360.2 million when compared to the first quarter of 2022, primarily in the Puerto Rico region, while government deposits grew by $176.6 million driven by increases in both Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. Average deposit balances decreased slightly during the quarter but are still 31% above pre-pandemic levels. Asset quality continued to improve with non-performing assets reaching 0.76% of total assets. Notwithstanding, we recorded an expense of $10.0 million to the provision for credit losses, primarily reflecting an overall increase in the loan portfolio and increased uncertainty that is reflected in the forecast of certain macroeconomic variables. We remain attentive to the potential impact of global inflation in our markets.
Our strategic focus remains centered around providing the best omnichannel experience to our clients. During the quarter, digital engagement continued to progress nicely with retail digital banking users growing by 4% and continuing to capture over 40% of deposit transactions through digital and self-service channels. Also, mobile Digital Banking users grew by 50% since the application was launched in April of this year. Most importantly, we partnered with an established fintech firm to provide a fully digital commercial lending platform for small business loans. We now have the ability to process consumer, mortgage, and small business loan applications through self-service digital platforms.
Finally, we continued to execute on our capital deployment plan and repurchased approximately 7.07 million shares of common stock for a total purchase price of $100 million under the previously-announced $350 million stock repurchase program. We believe that our fortress balance sheet, complemented by strong economic tailwinds in Puerto Rico, will contribute to the mitigation of rising market challenges and allow us to continue supporting our clients and delivering value to shareholders."

Net interest income amounted to $196.2 million for the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $10.6 million, compared to $185.6 million for the first quarter of 2022. The increase in net interest income was mainly due to:
- A $3.2 million increase in interest income on investment securities, primarily reflecting the effects of a lower U.S. agencies MBS premium amortization expense associated to lower actual and expected prepayments, and the effects of higher reinvestment yields in the investment securities portfolio.
- A $3.1 million increase in interest income on consumer loans and finance leases, primarily due to an increase of approximately $105.8 million in the average balance of this portfolio, which resulted in an increase in interest income of approximately $2.5 million and the favorable impact of one additional day in the second quarter, which resulted in an increase in interest income of approximately $0.8 million.
- A $2.6 million increase in interest income on commercial and construction loans, primarily due to: (i) the upward repricing of variable-rate commercial and construction loans, which resulted in an increase of approximately $3.5 million in interest income, (ii) the effects in the second quarter of interest income of approximately $0.8 million realized from deferred interest recognized on three commercial loans paid off, and (iii) the positive effect of one additional day in the second quarter, which resulted in an increase of approximately $0.7 million in this portfolio, partially offset by (iv) a $1.2 million decrease in interest income from SBA PPP loans and (v) $1.1 million collected on a nonaccrual commercial loan in the first quarter of 2022.
- A $2.1 million increase in interest income from interest-bearing cash balances, which consisted primarily of deposits maintained at the FED, with an average yield of 0.75% during the second quarter of 2022 compared to 0.18% in the first quarter of 2022, mainly attributable to increases in the federal funds target rate during the second quarter of 2022.
Partially offset by:
- A $0.2 million decrease in interest income on residential mortgage loans primarily due to a decrease of $70.2 million in the average balance of this portfolio, partially offset by an improvement in the average yield of the residential mortgage portfolio.
- A $0.2 million increase in interest expense, which includes $0.6 million mainly related to the upward repricing of floating rate junior subordinated debentures and, to a lesser extent, $452.2 million in average balances of demand deposit accounts that were converted to interest bearing at the end of the first quarter of 2022, partially offset by a $0.3 million decrease due to the full effect in the second quarter of 2022 associated with the repayment of a $100 million repurchase agreement that carried a cost of 2.26% and matured early in the first quarter of 2022.
Net interest margin for the second quarter of 2022 increased to 4.00%, when compared to 3.81% for the first quarter of 2022.

Non-interest income amounted to $30.9 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $32.9 million for the first quarter of 2022. The $2.0 million decrease in non-interest income was mainly due to:
- A $2.3 million decrease in insurance income, included as part of Other operating income in the table above, reflecting the effect of seasonal contingent commissions of $3.0 million recorded in the first quarter of 2022 based on the prior year's production of insurance policies.
- A $1.1 million decrease in revenues from mortgage banking activities, mainly driven by a decrease in net realized gains on sales of residential mortgage loans in the secondary market due to a lower volume of sales. During the second and first quarters of 2022, net gains of $2.2 million and $3.5 million, respectively, were recognized as a result of Government National Mortgage Association ("GNMA") securitization transactions and whole loan sales to U.S. government-sponsored entities ("GSEs") amounting to $64.2 million and $93.9 million, respectively.
Partially offset by:
- A $0.6 million net increase in transactional fee income from credit and debit cards, point-of-sale terminals ("POS"), ATMs, and merchant transactions, mainly due to higher transactional volumes.
- A $0.9 million gain on the sale of a banking facility related to branch consolidation efforts.

Non-interest expenses amounted to $108.3 million in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $1.6 million from $106.7 million in the first quarter of 2022. The $1.6 million increase reflects, among other things, the following significant variances:
- A $1.8 million increase in employees' compensation and benefits expense, driven by a $1.0 million increase in compensation expense and a $1.6 million increase in bonus expense and other incentives, partially offset by a $0.9 million decrease in payroll taxes and other employee expenses.
- A $1.7 million increase in credit and debit card processing expenses, primarily related to credit card networks expense incentive of $1.0 million received in the first quarter of 2022, as well as higher transaction volumes.
- A $1.4 million increase in professional service fees, mainly due to a $0.7 million increase in outsourcing technology service fees mainly related to the reversal of technology processing and data-related costs of the acquired BSPR operations in the first quarter of 2022 and a $0.6 million increase in consulting fees driven by various technology projects.
- A $0.6 million increase in business promotion expenses, mainly related to a credit card loyalty rewards program adjustment recognized in the first quarter of 2022 to reduce the credit card rewards estimated liability based on updated lower historical trends of customer redemption rates.
Partially offset by:
- A $1.5 million decrease in other non-interest expenses, mainly driven by the reversal of a $1.0 million sundry loss reserve as a result of the resolution of an operational loss during the second quarter of 2022.
- A $0.9 million decrease in occupancy and equipment costs, primarily related to a reduction in rental expense and depreciation charges mainly due to the consolidation of additional branches during the first quarter of 2022 and the resolution of a rent contingency during the second quarter of 2022.
- A $0.8 million increase in net gains on other real estate owned ("OREO") operations, mainly due to a $0.9 million increase in net realized gains on sales of OREO properties, primarily residential properties in the Puerto Rico region.
INCOME TAXES
The Corporation recorded an income tax expense of $34.1 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to $43.0 million for the first quarter of 2022. The variance was primarily related to lower pre-tax income when compared to the prior quarter.
The Corporation's estimated effective tax rate, excluding entities with pre-tax losses from which a tax benefit cannot be recognized and discrete items, decreased to 31.7% compared to 32.9% for the first quarter of 2022, mostly attributable to a higher proportion of exempt to taxable income when compared to prior quarter. As of June 30, 2022, the Corporation had a deferred tax asset of $167.0 million, net of a valuation allowance of $166.4 million against the deferred tax assets. The Corporation's banking subsidiary, FirstBank, had a deferred tax asset of $166.9 million net of a valuation allowance of $127.7 million.

(2) | Excludes purchased-credit deteriorated ("PCD") loans previously accounted for under Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Subtopic 310-30 for which the Corporation made the accounting policy election of maintaining pools of loans as "units of account" both at the time of adoption of current expected credit losses ("CECL") on January 1, 2020 and on an ongoing basis for credit loss measurement. These loans will continue to be excluded from nonaccrual loan statistics as long as the Corporation can reasonably estimate the timing and amount of cash flows expected to be collected on the loan pools. The portion of such loans contractually past due 90 days or more amounted to $15.3 million as of June 30, 2022 (March 31, 2022 - $18.0 million; December 31, 2021 - $20.6 million; September 30, 2021 - $22.1 million; June 30, 2021 - $24.6 million). |

December 31, 2021 - $7.2 million; September 30, 2021 - $8.5 million; June 30, 2021 - $8.0 million). Under the GNMA program, the Corporation has the option but not the obligation to repurchase loans that meet GNMA's specified delinquency criteria. For accounting purposes, the loans subject to the repurchase option are required to be reflected on the financial statements with an offsetting liability. |
Variances in credit quality metrics:
-
Total non-performing assets decreased by $9.0 million to $147.5 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to $156.5 million as of March 31, 2022. Total nonaccrual loans held for investment decreased by $7.9 million to $99.1 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to $107.0 million as of March 31, 2022.
The decrease in non-performing assets was mainly driven by:
- A $4.2 million decrease in nonaccrual residential mortgage loans, mainly related to $5.3 million of loans restored to accrual status, $1.6 million of collections, and $1.2 million of loans transferred to OREO, partially offset by inflows of $4.4 million.
- A $3.0 million decrease in nonaccrual commercial and construction loans mainly related to payoffs and paydowns received during the second quarter.
- A $1.2 million decrease in the OREO portfolio balance, mainly in the Puerto Rico region.
- Inflows to nonaccrual loans held for investment were $16.4 million, a $5.2 million decrease compared to inflows of $21.6 million in the first quarter of 2022. Inflows to nonaccrual consumer loans were $11.4 million, a decrease of $0.4 million compared to inflows of $11.8 million in the first quarter of 2022. Inflows to nonaccrual residential mortgage loans were $4.4 million in the second quarter of 2022, a decrease of $0.9 million compared to inflows of $5.3 million in the first quarter of 2022. Inflows to nonaccrual commercial and construction loans were $0.6 million in the second quarter of 2022, a decrease of $3.9 million compared to inflows of $4.5 million in the first quarter of 2022. See Early Delinquency below for additional information.
- Adversely classified commercial and construction loans decreased by $5.4 million to $170.7 million as of June 30, 2022.
- Total Troubled Debt Restructured ("TDR") loans held for investment were $394.5 million as of June 30, 2022, down $10.2 million from March 31, 2022. Approximately $345.4 million of total TDR loans held for investment were in accrual status as of June 30, 2022. These figures exclude $55.1 million of government-guaranteed TDR residential mortgage loans (i.e., Federal Housing Administration and Veterans Administration loans).
Early Delinquency
Total loans held for investment in early delinquency (i.e., 30-89 days past due accruing loans, as defined in regulatory reporting instructions) amounted to $92.2 million as of June 30, 2022, a decrease of $8.2 million, compared to $100.4 million as of March 31, 2022. The variances by major portfolio categories are as follows:
- Commercial and construction loans in early delinquency decreased in the second quarter by $19.0 million to $5.6 million as of June 30, 2022, primarily due to the renewal of four commercial and construction relationships totaling $14.0 million that had matured during the previous quarter, the migration to the 90 days or more past due and still accruing category of a $2.6 million matured commercial and industrial loan that is in the process of renewal but for which the Corporation continues to receive principal and interest payments from the borrower, and the payoff of a $1.8 million commercial and industrial loan that had matured during the previous quarter.
- Consumer loans in early delinquency increased by $9.6 million to $53.3 million, mainly in auto loans, and residential mortgage loans in early delinquency increased by $1.2 million to $33.3 million.

The main variances of the total ACL by main categories are discussed below:
Allowance for Credit Losses for Loans and Finance Leases
- As of June 30, 2022, the ACL for loans and finance leases was $252.1 million, an increase of $6.7 million, from $245.4 million as of March 31, 2022. The ACL for consumer loans increased by $8.2 million, primarily reflecting the effect of the increase in the size of the auto loans and finance lease portfolios. The ACL for commercial and construction loans increased $2.1 million, primarily as a result of increased economic uncertainty that is reflected in the forecast of certain macro-economic variables and the related qualitative reserves. On the other hand, the ACL for residential mortgage loans decreased by $3.6 million, primarily due to the overall reduction in the size of this portfolio.
- The provision for credit losses on loans and finance leases was an expense of $12.7 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to a net benefit of $17.0 million in the first quarter of 2022.
- Provision for credit losses for the commercial and construction loan portfolio was an expense of $0.3 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to a net benefit of $23.1 million in the first quarter of 2022. The benefit recognized during the first quarter of 2022 was related to reductions in qualitative reserves associated with a positive long-term outlook of forecasted macroeconomic variables, primarily in the commercial real estate price index, as a result of a reduced impact of the Omicron variant.
- Provision for credit losses for the consumer loans and finance leases portfolio was an expense of $15.2 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to an expense of $11.0 million in the first quarter of 2022, primarily reflecting the effect of the increase in the size of the auto loans and finance lease portfolios.
- Provision for credit losses for the residential mortgage loan portfolio was a net benefit of $2.8 million for the second quarter of 2022, compared to a net benefit of $4.9 million in the first quarter of 2022. The net benefit recorded for the second quarter of 2022 was primarily related to the overall decrease in the size of the residential mortgage portfolio.
- The ratio of the ACL for loans and finance leases to total loans held for investment was 2.25% as of June 30, 2022, compared to 2.21% as of March 31, 2022. The ratio of the total ACL for loans and finance leases to nonaccrual loans held for investment was 254% as of June 30, 2022, compared to 229% as of March 31, 2022.
Net Charge-Offs
The following table presents ratios of annualized net charge-offs (recoveries) to average loans held-in-portfolio:

(1) | Includes net charge-offs totaling $23.1 million associated with a bulk sale of residential mortgage nonaccrual loans and related servicing advance receivables. Excluding net charge-offs associated with the bulk sale, residential mortgage and total net charge-offs to related average loans for the third quarter of 2021 was 0.05% and 0.17%, respectively. |
The ratios above are based on annualized net charge-offs and are not necessarily indicative of the results expected in subsequent periods.
Net charge-offs were $6.0 million for the second quarter of 2022, or an annualized 0.21% of average loans, compared to $6.6 million, or an annualized 0.24% of average loans, in the first quarter of 2022. The decrease of $0.6 million in net charge-offs included the following:
- A $1.0 million increase in commercial and construction loan net recoveries mainly related to $1.2 million in recoveries recorded in the second quarter of 2022 on two commercial mortgage relationships.
- A $0.3 million decrease in residential mortgage loan net charge-offs.
Partially offset by:
- A $0.7 million increase in consumer loan net charge-offs, primarily reflecting increases in charge-offs taken on credit cards and personal loans.
Allowance for Credit Losses for Unfunded Loan Commitments
The Corporation estimates expected credit losses over the contractual period during which the Corporation is exposed to credit risk as a result of a contractual obligation to extend credit, such as pursuant to unfunded loan commitments and standby letters of credit for commercial and construction loans, unless the obligation is unconditionally cancellable by the Corporation. The ACL for off-balance sheet credit exposures is adjusted as a provision for credit loss expense. As of June 30, 2022, the ACL for off-balance sheet credit exposures was $2.2 million, an increase of $0.8 million from $1.4 million as of March 31, 2022.
Allowance for Credit Losses for Held-to-Maturity Debt Securities
As of June 30, 2022, the ACL for held-to-maturity debt securities consisted of Puerto Rico municipal bonds. As of June 30, 2022, the ACL for held-to-maturity debt securities was $8.9 million, compared to $12.3 million as of March 31, 2022. The decrease on the ACL is mostly related to a reduction in qualitative reserves driven by updated financial information received during the second quarter of 2022.
STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
Total assets were approximately $19.5 billion as of June 30, 2022, down $397.4 million from March 31, 2022.
The following variances within the main components of total assets are noted:
- A $432.7 million decrease in cash and cash equivalents mainly related to the overall decline in total deposits, the deployment of liquidity into U.S. agencies MBS, funding of new loan originations, and the repurchase of approximately 7.07 million shares of common stock for a total purchase price of approximately $100 million.
- A $59.1 million decrease in investment securities, mainly driven by a $175.9 million decrease in the fair value of available-for-sale debt securities attributable to changes in market interest rates, and the prepayments of approximately $166.6 million of U.S. agencies MBS, partially offset by purchases of U.S. agencies MBS totaling $280.2 million which were classified as part of the held-to-maturity debt securities portfolio.
-
A $103.9 million increase in total loans. The increase consisted of a $60.8 million increase in the Puerto Rico region and a $46.2 million increase in the Florida region, partially offset by a reduction of $3.1 million in the Virgin Islands region. On a portfolio basis, the increase consisted of a $130.7 million increase in consumer loans (including a $101.0 million increase in auto loans and finance leases) and an increase of $18.5 million in commercial and construction loans (net of the $40.3 million decrease in the carrying value of the SBA PPP loan portfolio), partially offset by a reduction of $45.3 million in residential mortgage loans. Excluding the $40.3 million decrease in the carrying value of the SBA PPP loan portfolio, commercial and construction loans increased by $58.8 million mainly reflecting the origination of loans related to seven commercial and industrial relationships, each in excess of $10 million, amounting to $133.8 million, partially offset by a decrease of $36.4 million in the balance of floor plan lines of credit, and payoffs and paydowns.
Total loan originations, including refinancings, renewals and draws from existing commitments (excluding credit card utilization activity), amounted to $1.4 billion in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $280.8 million compared to the first quarter of 2022. The increase in total loan originations consisted of: (i) a $237.1 million increase in commercial and construction loan originations; (ii) a $39.7 million increase in consumer loan originations; and (iii) a $4.0 million increase in residential mortgage loan originations.
Total loan originations in the Puerto Rico region amounted to $993.8 million in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $136.0 million when compared to $857.8 million in the first quarter of 2022. The $136.0 million net increase in total loan originations in the Puerto Rico region consisted of: (i) a $104.2 million increase in commercial and construction loan originations; (ii) a $37.9 million increase in consumer loan originations; and (iii) a $6.1 million decrease in residential mortgage loan originations.
Total loan originations in the Florida region amounted to $328.0 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $202.8 million in the first quarter of 2022. The increase of $125.2 million in total loan originations in the Florida region consisted of: (i) a $115.5 million increase in commercial and construction loan originations; (ii) a $9.4 million increase in residential mortgage loan originations; and (iii) a $0.3 million increase in consumer loan originations.
Total loan originations in the Virgin Islands region amounted to $36.8 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $17.2 million in the first quarter of 2022. The increase of $19.6 million in total loan originations in the Virgin Islands region consisted of: (i) a $17.4 million increase in commercial and construction loan originations; (ii) a $1.5 million increase in consumer loan originations; and (iii) a $0.7 million increase in residential mortgage loan originations.
Total liabilities were approximately $18.0 billion as of June 30, 2022, down $174.2 million from March 31, 2022.
The decrease in total liabilities was mainly due to:
- A $360.2 million decrease in total deposits, excluding brokered CDs and government deposits, reflecting reductions of $425.5 million in the Puerto Rico region and $19.0 million in the Virgin Islands region, partially offset by an increase of $84.3 million in the Florida region.
- A $11.7 million decrease in brokered CDs.
Partially offset by:
- A $176.6 million increase in government deposits, consisting of increases of $98.1 million in the Virgin Islands region, $77.2 million in the Puerto Rico region, and $1.3 million in the Florida region. The increase in the Virgin Islands region was primarily related to income tax collections made by the central government and the increase reflected in the Puerto Rico region was primarily related to municipal tax collections.
Total stockholders' equity amounted to $1.6 billion as of June 30, 2022, a decrease of $223.2 million from March 31, 2022. The decrease was driven by the $175.9 million increase in other comprehensive loss ("OCL") directly related to reductions in the fair value of available-for-sale debt securities due to changes in market interest rates, the repurchase of approximately 7.07 million shares of common stock for a total purchase price of approximately $100 million as part of the $350 million stock repurchase program announced in April 2022, and $23.4 million in quarterly dividends declared to common stock shareholders. These variances were partially offset by earnings generated in the second quarter.
As of June 30, 2022, capital ratios exceeded the required regulatory levels for bank holding companies and well-capitalized banks. The Corporation's estimated common equity tier 1 capital, tier 1 capital, total capital and leverage ratios under the Basel III rules were 17.23%, 17.23%, 19.98%, and 10.18%, respectively, as of June 30, 2022, compared to common equity tier 1 capital, tier 1 capital, total capital and leverage ratios of 17.71%, 17.71%, 20.44%, and 10.35%, respectively, as of March 31, 2022.
Meanwhile, estimated common equity tier 1 capital, tier 1 capital, total capital and leverage ratios of our banking subsidiary, FirstBank Puerto Rico, were 17.16%, 18.00%, 19.25%, and 10.63%, respectively, as of June 30, 2022, compared to common equity tier 1 capital, tier 1 capital, total capital and leverage ratios of 18.09%, 18.93%, 20.17%, and 11.07%, respectively, as of March 31, 2022.
Tangible Common Equity
The Corporation's tangible common equity ratio decreased to 7.67% as of June 30, 2022, compared to 8.63% as of March 31, 2022. The decrease in tangible common equity includes a $175.9 million increase in OCL.

Exposure to Puerto Rico Government
As of June 30, 2022, the Corporation had $353.2 million of direct exposure to the Puerto Rico government, its municipalities and public corporations, compared to $356.8 million as of March 31, 2022. As of June 30, 2022, approximately $187.6 million of the exposure consisted of loans and obligations of municipalities in Puerto Rico that are supported by assigned property tax revenues and for which, in most cases, the good faith, credit and unlimited taxing power of the applicable municipality have been pledged to their repayment, and $121.8 million consisted of municipal revenue or special obligation bonds. The Corporation's total direct exposure to the Puerto Rico government also included $11.7 million in loans extended to an affiliate of a public corporation, $28.7 million in loans to an agency of the Puerto Rico central government, and obligations of the Puerto Rico government, specifically a residential pass-through MBS issued by the PRHFA, at an amortized cost of $3.4 million (fair value of $2.8 million as of June 30, 2022), included as part of the Corporation's available-for-sale debt securities portfolio. This residential pass-through MBS issued by the PRHFA is collateralized by certain second mortgages and had an unrealized loss of $0.6 million as of June 30, 2022, of which $0.4 million is due to credit deterioration.
The aforementioned exposure to municipalities in Puerto Rico included $178.4 million of financing arrangements with Puerto Rico municipalities that were issued in bond form but underwritten as loans with features that are typically found in commercial loans.

uncertainty as to the availability of wholesale funding sources, such as securities sold under agreements to repurchase, Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") advances and brokered CDs; the effect of a resumption of deteriorating economic conditions in the real estate markets and the consumer and commercial sectors and their impact on the credit quality of the Corporation's loans and other assets, which may contribute to, among other things, higher than targeted levels of non-performing assets, charge-offs and provisions for credit losses, and may subject the Corporation to further risk from loan defaults and foreclosures; the impact of changes in accounting standards or assumptions in applying those standards, including the continuing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, or geopolitical concerns, such as the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, on forecasts of economic variables considered for the determination of the ACL required by the CECL accounting standard; the ability of FirstBank to realize the benefits of its net deferred tax assets; the ability of FirstBank to generate sufficient cash flow to make dividend payments to the Corporation; adverse changes in general economic conditions in Puerto Rico, the U.S., and the U.S. and British Virgin Islands, including the interest rate environment, market liquidity, housing absorption rates, real estate prices, and disruptions in the U.S. capital markets, including as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which may reduce interest margins, affect funding sources and demand for all of the Corporation's products and services, and reduce the Corporation's revenues and earnings and the value of the Corporation's assets; uncertainty about the effect of the cessation of the London Interbank Offered Rate, which could adversely affect the Corporation's results of operations, cash flows, and liquidity; an adverse change in the Corporation's ability to attract new clients and retain existing ones;

changes in the fiscal and monetary policies and regulations of the U.S. federal government and the Puerto Rico and other governments, including those determined by the Federal Reserve Board, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the "FDIC"), government-sponsored housing agencies, and regulators in Puerto Rico and the U.S. and British Virgin Islands; the risk of possible failure or circumvention of the Corporation's internal controls and procedures and the risk that the Corporation's risk management policies may not be adequate; the Corporation's ability to identify and prevent cyber-security incidents, such as data security breaches, ransomware, malware, "denial of service" attacks, "hacking", identity theft and state-sponsored cyberthreats, and the occurrence of any of which may result in misuse or misappropriation of confidential or proprietary information and could result in the disruption or damage to our systems, increased costs and losses or an adverse effect to our reputation;

Basis of Presentation
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains GAAP financial measures and non-GAAP financial measures. Non-GAAP financial measures are used when management believes them to be helpful to an investor's understanding of the Corporation's results of operations or financial position. Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the most comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measure to the most comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in the text or in the tables in or attached to this press release. Any analysis of these non-GAAP financial measures should be used only in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP.
Tangible Common Equity Ratio and Tangible Book Value per Common Share
The tangible common equity ratio and tangible book value per common share are non-GAAP financial measures that management believes are generally used by the financial community to evaluate capital adequacy. Tangible common equity is total equity less preferred equity, goodwill, and other intangibles. Tangible assets are total assets less goodwill and other intangibles. Management uses and believes that many stock analysts use the tangible common equity ratio and tangible book value per common share in conjunction with other more traditional bank capital ratios to compare the capital adequacy of banking organizations with significant amounts of goodwill or other intangible assets, typically stemming from the use of the purchase method of accounting for mergers and acquisitions. Accordingly, the Corporation believes that disclosure of these financial measures may be useful to investors. Neither tangible common equity nor tangible assets, or the related measures, should be considered in isolation or as a substitute for stockholders' equity, total assets, or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which the Corporation calculates its tangible common equity, tangible assets, and any other related measures may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names.
Adjusted Pre-Tax, Pre-Provision Income
Adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income is a non-GAAP performance metric that management uses and believes that investors may find useful in analyzing underlying performance trends, particularly in times of economic stress, including as a result of natural catastrophes or health epidemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision income, as defined by management, represents income before income taxes adjusted to exclude the provisions for credit losses on loans, finance leases and debt securities and any gains or losses on sales of investment securities. In addition, from time to time, earnings are also adjusted for certain items regarded as Special Items, such as merger and restructuring costs in connection with the acquisition of BSPR and related integration and restructuring efforts, and costs incurred in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic response efforts, because management believes these items are not reflective of core operating performance, are not expected to reoccur with any regularity or may reoccur at uncertain times and in uncertain amounts.
Net Interest Income, Excluding Valuations, and on a Tax-Equivalent Basis
Net interest income, interest rate spread, and net interest margin are reported excluding the changes in the fair value of derivative instruments and on a tax-equivalent basis in order to provide to investors additional information about the Corporation's net interest income that management uses and believes should facilitate comparability and analysis of the periods presented. The changes in the fair value of derivative instruments have no effect on interest due or interest earned on interest-bearing liabilities or interest-earning assets, respectively. The tax-equivalent adjustment to net interest income recognizes the income tax savings when comparing taxable and tax-exempt assets and assumes a marginal income tax rate. Income from tax-exempt earning assets is increased by an amount equivalent to the taxes that would have been paid if this income had been taxable at statutory rates. Management believes that it is a standard practice in the banking industry to present net interest income, interest rate spread, and net interest margin on a fully tax-equivalent basis. This adjustment puts all earning assets, most notably tax-exempt securities and tax-exempt loans, on a common basis that management believes facilitates comparison of results to the results of peers.
The following table reconciles net interest income in accordance with GAAP to net interest income excluding valuations, and net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis for the second and first quarters of 2022, the second quarter of 2021 and the six-month period ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The table also reconciles netinterest spread and net interest margin to these items excluding valuations, and on a tax-equivalent basis.

Financial measures adjusted to exclude the effect of Special Items that management believes are not reflective of core operating performance, are not expected to reoccur with any regularity or may reoccur at uncertain times and in uncertain amounts.
To supplement the Corporation's financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP, the Corporation uses, and believes that investors would benefit from disclosure of, non-GAAP financial measures that reflect adjustments to net income to exclude items that management identifies as Special Items because management believes they are not reflective of core operating performance, are not expected to reoccur with any regularity or may reoccur at uncertain times and in uncertain amounts.
-
Adjusted net income - The adjusted net income amount for the second quarter of 2021 reflects the following exclusions:
- Merger and restructuring costs of $11.0 million related to transaction costs and restructuring initiatives in connection with the acquisition of BSPR.
- COVID-19 pandemic-related expenses of $1.1 million.
-
The tax-related effects of all of the pre-tax items mentioned in the above bullets as follows:
- Tax benefit of $4.1 million related to merger and restructuring costs in connection with the acquisition of BSPR (calculated based on the statutory tax rate of 37.5%).
- Tax benefit of $0.4 million in connection with COVID-19 pandemic-related expenses (calculated based on the statutory tax rate of 37.5%).
Management believes that the presentation of adjusted net income enhances the ability of analysts and investors to analyze trends in the Corporation's business and understand the performance of the Corporation. In addition, the Corporation may utilize these non-GAAP financial measures as guides in its budgeting and long-term planning process.

(1) | Residential pass-through MBS issued by the PRHFA held as part of the available-for-sale debt securities portfolio. |
(2) | Excludes PCD loans previously accounted for under ASC Subtopic 310-30 for which the Corporation made the accounting policy election of maintaining pools of loans as "units of account" both at the time of adoption of CECL on January 1, 2020 and on an ongoing basis for credit loss measurement. These loans will continue to be excluded from nonaccrual loan statistics as long as the Corporation can reasonably estimate the timing and amount of cash flows expected to be collected on the loan pools. The portion of such loans contractually past due 90 days or more amounted to $15.3 million as of June 30, 2022 (March 31, 2022 - $18.0 million; December 31, 2021 - $20.6 million). |
(3) | These include rebooked loans, which were previously pooled into GNMA securities, amounting to $10.8 million as of June 30, 2022 (March 31, 2022 - $9.5 million; December 31, 2021 - $7.2 million). Under the GNMA program, the Corporation has the option but not the obligation to repurchase loans that meet GNMA's specified delinquency criteria. For accounting purposes, the loans subject to the repurchase option are required to be reflected on the financial statements with an offsetting liability. |
