DENVER, Oct. 21, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- First Western Financial, Inc., (“First Western” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: MYFW), today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021.
Net income available to common shareholders was $6.4 million, or $0.78 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2021. This compares to $6.3 million, or $0.76 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021, and $9.6 million, or $1.20 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2020.
Scott C. Wylie, CEO of First Western, commented, “Our strong business development momentum continued in the third quarter, resulting in quality balance sheet growth, more operating leverage, and a higher level of earnings compared to the prior quarter. The productivity of our existing offices and the expansion of our private and commercial banking operations through the opening of new offices and adding proven banking talent has enabled us to better capitalize on the healthy economic activity in our markets and consistently generate growth in loans, deposits, and assets under management.
“Excluding PPP loans, our total loans held for investment increased at an annualized rate of 19.3% during the third quarter with growth across most areas of the portfolio. We also continue to see strong deposit inflows, with total deposits increasing 6.1% from the end of the prior quarter, with growth primarily coming in our lower-cost categories and further improving our deposit mix.
“Our loan and deposit pipelines remain consistent, which should result in another strong quarter to finish 2021. We are making good progress on our integration planning for the acquisition of Teton Financial Services, which we expect to close late in the fourth quarter of 2021 or early in the first quarter of 2022, and our teams are collaborating well to leverage the collective strengths of each organization. Combined with our continued organic growth, we believe that the accretive benefits of the Teton acquisition position us well to deliver strong earnings growth in 2022, while further increasing our geographic and revenue diversification,” said Mr. Wylie.

Revenue
Gross revenue (1) was $25.3 million for the third quarter of 2021, an increase from $23.7 million for the second quarter of 2021, due to higher net interest income and increases in all non-interest income generating areas. Relative to the third quarter of 2020, gross revenue decreased $5.7 million from $31.0 million, or 18.1%. The decrease in revenue from the prior year period was primarily due to a decrease in net gain on mortgage loans correlating with the decline in mortgage loans originated, offset by an increase in net interest income derived primarily from organic balance sheet growth and an increase in loan fees driven by an increase in Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan forgiveness.

Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the third quarter of 2021 was $14.8 million, an increase of 4.4% from $14.2 million in the second quarter of 2021. The increase in net interest income was driven by a $0.6 million increase in interest income from loans, including fees, primarily due to organic balance sheet growth and an increase in net interest margin.
Relative to the third quarter of 2020, net interest income increased 14.9% from $12.9 million. The year-over-year increase in net interest income was due primarily to the increase in average interest-earning assets primarily driven by a $129.9 million increase in loans and a $87.9 million increase in interest-bearing deposits in other financial institutions. The increase in net interest income was also impacted by the cost of interest-bearing deposits decreasing 12 basis points (“bps”) from the third quarter of 2020.
Net Interest Margin
Net interest margin for the third quarter of 2021 increased to 3.14% from 3.01% in the second quarter of 2021, primarily due to an improved mix of earning assets and an interest recovery of a non-performing loan in our Commercial and Industrial portfolio. On a net basis, the PPP program positively impacted net interest margin by 9 bps in the third quarter of 2021. This was driven by accelerating revenue recognition of net loan fees associated with forgiven PPP loans of $0.9 million and interest income from PPP loans of $0.2 million.
The cost of interest-bearing deposits decreased slightly to 0.29% in the third quarter of 2021, from 0.30% in the second quarter of 2021, while the yield on interest-earning assets increased to 3.42% in the third quarter of 2021, from 3.29% in the second quarter of 2021. The increase during the period was primarily due to an improved mix of earning assets.
Relative to the third quarter of 2020, the net interest margin increased from 3.07%, primarily due to an increase in the yield on loans and the cost of interest-bearing deposits decreasing 12 bps.
Non-interest Income
Non-interest income for the third quarter of 2021 was $10.5 million, an increase of 10.5% from $9.5 million in the second quarter of 2021. This was primarily due to a $0.6 million increase in gain on mortgage loans held for sale, a $0.2 million increase in trust and investment management fees, and a $0.2 million increase in risk management and insurance fees. Mortgage lock volume increased $55.8 million in the third quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2021, which impacted the increase of net gain on mortgage loans held for sale.
Relative to the third quarter of 2020, non-interest income decreased 41.8% from $18.0 million. The decrease was primarily due to lower mortgage segment activity, partially offset by higher trust and investment management fees.
Non-interest Expense
Non-interest expense for the third quarter of 2021 was $16.5 million, an increase of 6.1% from the second quarter of 2021 at $15.5 million. This was primarily due to a $0.6 million increase in salaries and employee benefits as a result of increased bonus expense and insurance benefits. Professional services increased $0.3 million due to expenses related to mergers and acquisition activity.
The impact of the mergers and acquisition activity is as follows:

Income Taxes
The Company recorded income tax expense of $2.0 million for the third quarter of 2021, representing an effective tax rate of 24.2%, compared to 23.3% for the second quarter of 2021. The increase in effective tax rate in the third quarter of 2021 was primarily attributable to a tax benefit related to stock-based compensation recognized in the second quarter of 2021.
Loans
Total loans held for investment, were $1.60 billion as of September 30, 2021, an increase of 1.9% from $1.57 billion as of June 30, 2021, and an increase of 6.4% from $1.51 billion as of September 30, 2020. The increase in total loans held for investment from June 30, 2021 was primarily attributable to a $33.9 million increase in the non-owner occupied CRE portfolio. In addition, our Cash, Securities, and Other portfolio increased $2.9 million or $44.1 million, excluding PPP forgiveness and borrower payments/adjustments of $41.2 million. Excluding PPP loans, total loans held for investment were $1.54 billion as of September 30, 2021, an increase of $70.9 million, or 4.8%, from the end of the prior quarter and an increase of $227.3 million, or 17.3%, from September 30, 2020.
PPP loans were $61.9 million as of September 30, 2021, a decrease of 40.0% from $103.1 million as of June 30, 2021. As of September 30, 2021, the Company has submitted loan forgiveness applications to the SBA on behalf of clients for $241.5 million and received forgiveness and funds remitted in the amount of $214.8 million from the SBA. As of September 30, 2021, there was $1.2 million remaining in net fees to be recognized upon forgiveness or repayment of PPP loans.
Deposits
Total deposits were $1.78 billion as of September 30, 2021, compared to $1.68 billion as of June 30, 2021, and $1.56 billion as of September 30, 2020. The increase in total deposits from June 30, 2021 was primarily in non-interest bearing deposits. In addition to average balance increases, total deposits as of September 30, 2021 were impacted by a significant relationship contributing an additional $60.0 million into their money market account in the third quarter of 2021, following a liquidity event in their business.
Average total deposits for the third quarter of 2021 increased $17.7 million, or 4.1% annualized, from the second quarter of 2021 and increased $260.2 million, or 17.8%, from the third quarter of 2020. The year-over-year increase was primarily attributable to an increase in non-interest bearing and money market deposits resulting from inflows from large commercial depositors and higher deposit balances across the Company’s clientele due to the improving economic and business environment.
Borrowings
Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) and Federal Reserve borrowings were $58.6 million as of September 30, 2021, a decrease of $62.2 million from $120.8 million as of June 30, 2021, and a decrease of $163.5 million from $222.1 million as of September 30, 2020. The decrease from September 30, 2020 and from June 30, 2021 is attributable to the participation in the Paycheck Protection Program Loan Facility (“PPPLF”) from the Federal Reserve. Borrowing from this facility is expected to trend in the same direction as the balances of the PPP loans and the resulting net decrease in PPP loans drove the decrease to the PPPLF balance. As of September 30, 2021, the PPPLF had advances of $43.6 million compared to PPP loan balance of $61.9 million.
Assets Under Management
Total assets under management (“AUM”) increased by $143.8 million during the third quarter to $6.91 billion as of September 30, 2021, compared to $6.76 billion as of June 30, 2021, and $6.13 billion as of September 30, 2020. The increase was primarily attributable to improving market conditions resulting in an increase in the value of assets under management balances, as well as contributions to existing accounts and new accounts.
Credit Quality
Non-performing assets totaled $4.4 million, or 0.21% of total assets, as of September 30, 2021, compared with $3.1 million, or 0.16% of total assets, as of June 30, 2021 and $10.4 million, or 0.53% of total assets, as of September 30, 2020. The increase in non-performing assets from the prior quarter was primarily due to one relationship being downgraded into non-accrual status, offset by continued pay downs on outstanding balances.
The Company recorded a provision of $0.4 million in the third quarter of 2021, compared to a provision of $1.5 million in the third quarter of 2020. The Company recorded an immaterial provision for loan losses in the second quarter of 2021. The provision recorded in the third quarter represented general provisioning consistent with growth of the loan portfolio and the resulting allowance for loan loss is representative of continued strong credit quality in the portfolio.
Capital
As of September 30, 2021, First Western (“Consolidated”) and First Western Trust Bank (“Bank”) exceeded the minimum capital levels required by their respective regulators. As of September 30, 2021, the Bank was classified as “well capitalized,” as summarized in the following table:
