This performance was driven by a 16 basis point expansion in the net interest margin and a 10% increase in adjusted pre-provision net revenue. The results were impacted by a one-time $16 million income tax expense due to a revaluation of deferred tax assets from new Utah state tax legislation Q1 2025 Key Financial Metrics | Metric | 1Q25 | 1Q24 | 4Q24 | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Net Earnings | $169 million | $143 million | $200 million | | Diluted EPS | $1.13 | $0.96 | $1.34 | | Net Interest Margin (NIM) | 3.10% | 2.94% | 3.05% | | Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) Ratio | 10.8% (Est.) | 10.4% | 10.9% | - A notable item in the quarter was a **$16 million** additional income tax expense (**$0.11** per share) from the revaluation of Deferred Tax Assets (DTAs) due to new Utah state tax legislation. The company expects most of this charge to accrete back into income over time[4](index=4&type=chunk) [CEO Commentary](index=1&type=section&id=CEO%20Commentary) Chairman and CEO Harris H. Simmons highlighted the 18% year-over-year increase in net income, attributing it to margin expansion and PPNR growth. He noted the completion of a four-branch acquisition in California, adding approximately $630 million in deposits and $420 million in loans. While credit quality remains strong with stable nonperforming assets and low net charge-offs, the CEO expressed caution about economic uncertainty stemming from potential tariffs and trade policy changes - The company completed the acquisition of four branches in California's Coachella Valley from FirstBank, adding approximately **$630 million** in deposits and **$420 million** in loans[4](index=4&type=chunk) - Credit quality was described as being in "very good shape," with nonperforming assets stable at **0.51%** of loans and annualized net charge-offs at **0.11%**[4](index=4&type=chunk) - Management expressed confidence in the company's credit culture and strong reserves to navigate potential economic turbulence, despite a more uncertain economic outlook clouded by trade policy concerns[4](index=4&type=chunk) [Results of Operations](index=3&type=section&id=Results%20of%20Operations) This section details the company's revenue streams, including net interest income and noninterest income, alongside operational expenses [Net Interest Income and Margin](index=3&type=section&id=Net%20Interest%20Income%20and%20Margin) Net interest income increased 6% year-over-year to $624 million, primarily due to lower funding costs. The net interest margin (NIM) expanded by 16 basis points to 3.10% compared to Q1 2024. This improvement occurred despite a 17 basis point drop in the yield on interest-earning assets, as the cost of deposits and interest-bearing liabilities fell more significantly by 30 and 33 basis points, respectively Net Interest Income and Margin (YoY Comparison) | Metric | 1Q25 | 1Q24 | Change | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Net Interest Income | $624 million | $586 million | +6% | | Net Interest Margin (NIM) | 3.10% | 2.94% | +16 bps | | Yield on Interest-Earning Assets | 5.08% | 5.25% | -17 bps | | Cost of Deposits | 1.76% | 2.06% | -30 bps | - The growth in net interest income was driven by lower funding costs and a favorable mix change in average interest-earning assets, with increases in loans and money market investments offsetting a decline in securities[9](index=9&type=chunk)[12](index=12&type=chunk) - Average interest-bearing liabilities grew by **$2.3 billion** (**4%**) YoY, driven by a **$2.9 billion** increase in interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by a decrease in borrowed funds[13](index=13&type=chunk) [Noninterest Income](index=4&type=section&id=Noninterest%20Income) Total noninterest income rose 10% year-over-year to $171 million. The increase was driven by a 4% rise in customer-related income to $158 million, led by higher loan-related and capital markets fees. Noncustomer-related income also saw a significant increase, primarily due to an $8 million year-over-year improvement in net securities gains from valuation adjustments in the SBIC investment portfolio Noninterest Income Breakdown (YoY Comparison) | Category | 1Q25 | 1Q24 | Change | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Customer-related noninterest income | $158 million | $152 million | +4% | | Noncustomer-related noninterest income | $13 million | $4 million | +225% | | **Total noninterest income** | **$171 million** | **$156 million** | **+10%** | - The growth in customer-related income was largely driven by higher loan-related fees and improved capital markets fees, particularly from increased investment banking advisory services[14](index=14&type=chunk) - Noncustomer income increased mainly due to an **$8 million** rise in net securities gains, largely from valuation adjustments in the Small Business Investment Company (SBIC) portfolio[15](index=15&type=chunk) [Noninterest Expense](index=4&type=section&id=Noninterest%20Expense) Total noninterest expense increased by a modest 2% year-over-year to $538 million, while adjusted noninterest expense grew 4% to $533 million. The rise was primarily due to higher salaries and employee benefits (+3%) and technology-related costs (+13%). This was partially offset by a significant 35% decrease in deposit insurance and regulatory expenses, which was elevated in the prior-year quarter due to an FDIC special assessment accrual. The efficiency ratio improved to 66.6% from 67.9% a year ago Noninterest Expense Breakdown (YoY Comparison) | Category | 1Q25 | 1Q24 | Change | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Salaries and employee benefits | $342 million | $331 million | +3% | | Technology, telecom, and info processing | $70 million | $62 million | +13% | | Deposit insurance and regulatory expense | $22 million | $34 million | -35% | | **Total noninterest expense** | **$538 million** | **$526 million** | **+2%** | - The decrease in deposit insurance expense was mainly due to a **$13 million** accrual for an FDIC special assessment in the prior year quarter[17](index=17&type=chunk) - The efficiency ratio improved to **66.6%** from **67.9%** in Q1 2024, as revenue growth outpaced the increase in adjusted noninterest expense[17](index=17&type=chunk) [Balance Sheet Analysis](index=5&type=section&id=Balance%20Sheet%20Analysis) This section analyzes the company's financial position, including assets, liabilities, equity, and credit quality trends [Investment Securities](index=5&type=section&id=Investment%20Securities) The total investment securities portfolio decreased by 7% year-over-year to $18.7 billion as of March 31, 2025.
