RICHMOND, Va. --(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Atlantic Union Bankshares Corporation (the “Company” or “Atlantic Union”) (NYSE: AUB) reported net income available to common shareholders of $51.1 million and basic and diluted earnings per common share of $0.68 for the third quarter of 2023 and adjusted operating earnings available to common shareholders(1) of $59.8 million and adjusted diluted operating earnings per common share(1) of $0.80 for the third quarter of 2023.
“Atlantic Union delivered strong operating results in the third quarter,” said John C. Asbury, president and chief executive officer of Atlantic Union. “We were especially pleased with our customer deposit growth that more than funded loan growth during the quarter, negligible charge-offs, and the impact of our expense reduction actions taken earlier in the year. The proactive measures we have taken to manage this challenging environment are serving us well.”
“We believe that our model of a diversified, traditional, full-service bank that delivers the products and services that our customers want and need combined with local decision making, responsiveness and client service orientation positively sets us apart from other banks, both larger and smaller. Operating under the mantra of soundness, profitability and growth – in that order of priority – Atlantic Union remains committed to generating sustainable, profitable growth and building long term value for our shareholders.”
STRATEGIC ACTIONS
Merger with American National Bankshares Inc. (“American National”)
On July 25, 2023, the Company announced that it entered into a merger agreement to acquire American National. During the third quarter of 2023, the Company incurred pre-tax merger costs of approximately $2.0 million .
Cost Saving Initiatives
As previously disclosed, the Company initiated a series of strategic cost savings measures during the second quarter of 2023 that is expected to reduce the annual expense run rate by approximately $17 million . As a result of these measures, the Company incurred pre-tax expenses of $8.7 million in the third quarter of 2023 and $3.9 million in the second quarter of 2023, principally composed of severance charges related to headcount reductions, costs related to modifying certain third-party vendor contracts, and charges for exiting certain leases.
Sale-Leaseback Transaction
On September 20, 2023, Atlantic Union Bank (the “Bank”) executed a sale-leaseback transaction and sold 27 properties, which consisted of 25 branches and a drive thru and parking lot, each adjacent to a sold branch, to a single purchaser for an aggregate purchase price of $45.8 million . Concurrently, the Bank entered into absolute net lease agreements with the purchaser under which the Bank will lease each of the properties for an initial term of 17 years with specified renewal options. The sale-leaseback transaction resulted in a pre-tax gain of approximately $27.7 million during the third quarter of 2023, after transaction-related expenses.
Available for Sale (“AFS”) Securities Sale
Concurrent with the sale-leaseback transaction, also on September 20, 2023, the Company restructured a portion of its investment portfolio by selling low yielding AFS securities with a book value of $228.3 million , resulting in a pre-tax net loss of $27.7 million . The net proceeds from the securities sale transaction were reinvested into higher yielding AFS securities at the end of the third quarter of 2023.
NET INTEREST INCOME
For the third quarter of 2023, net interest income was $151.9 million , a decrease of $143,000 from $152.1 million in the second quarter of 2023. Net interest income (FTE)(1) was $155.7 million in the third quarter of 2023, a decrease of $65,000 from $155.8 million in the second quarter of 2023 due to higher deposit costs driven by increases in market interest rates, changes in the deposit mix as depositors continue to migrate to higher costing interest bearing deposit accounts, and growth in average deposit balances, partially offset by an increase in loan yields on variable rate loans due to increases in short-term interest rates during the quarter, as well as growth in average loans held for investment (“LHFI”). Our net interest margin decreased 10 basis points from the prior quarter to 3.27% at September 30, 2023, and our net interest margin (FTE)(1) decreased 10 basis points during the same period to 3.35%. Earning asset yields increased by 20 basis points to 5.39% in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to the impact of increases in market interest rates on loans and loan growth. Our cost of funds increased by 30 basis points to 2.04% at September 30, 2023 compared to the prior quarter, due primarily to higher deposit costs driven by higher rates and changes in the deposit mix as noted above.
The Company’s net interest margin (FTE) (1) includes the impact of acquisition accounting fair value adjustments. Net accretion related to acquisition accounting was $1.1 million for the third quarter of 2023. The impact of net accretion in the second and third quarters of 2023 are reflected in the following table (dollars in thousands):

Past Due Loans
At September 30, 2023, past due loans still accruing interest totaled $40.6 million or 0.27% of total LHFI, compared to $24.1 million or 0.16% of total LHFI at June 30, 2023, and $29.0 million or 0.21% of total LHFI at September 30, 2022. The increase in past due loan levels from June 30, 2023 was primarily within the 30-59 days past due category and driven by increases in past due credit relationships within the commercial real estate and commercial and industrial portfolios. Of the total past due loans still accruing interest, $11.9 million or 0.08% of total LHFI were loans past due 90 days or more at September 30, 2023, compared to $10.1 million or 0.07% of total LHFI at June 30, 2023, and $7.4 million or 0.05% of total LHFI at September 30, 2022.
Allowance for Credit Losses
At September 30, 2023, the ACL was $140.9 million and included an allowance for loan and lease losses (“ALLL”) of $125.6 million and a reserve for unfunded commitments of $15.3 million . The ACL at September 30, 2023 increased $4.7 million from June 30, 2023 due to loan growth in the third quarter of 2023 and the impact of continued uncertainty in the economic outlook.
The ACL as a percentage of total LHFI was 0.92% at September 30, 2023, an increase of 2 basis points from June 30, 2023. The ALLL as a percentage of total LHFI was 0.82% at September 30, 2023, compared to 0.80% at June 30, 2023.
Net Charge-offs
Net charge-offs were $294,000 or 0.01% of total average LHFI on an annualized basis for the third quarter of 2023, compared to $1.6 million or 0.04% (annualized) for the second quarter of 2023, and $587,000 or 0.02% (annualized) for the third quarter of 2022.
Provision for Credit Losses
For the third quarter of 2023, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $5.0 million , compared to a provision for credit losses of $6.1 million in the prior quarter, and a provision for credit losses of $6.4 million in the third quarter of 2022.
NONINTEREST INCOME
Noninterest income increased $2.9 million to $27.1 million for the third quarter of 2023 from $24.2 million in the prior quarter, primarily driven by a $939,000 increase in other service charges, commissions and fees primarily due to a merchant services vendor contract signing bonus, a $714,000 increase in equity method investment income (included within other operating income), a $439,000 increase in service charges on deposits accounts, and a $379,000 increase in loan-related interest rate swap fees due to several new swap transactions. Noninterest income in the third quarter also included a $27.7 million gain related to the sale-leaseback transaction, included in other operating income, which was almost wholly offset by $27.6 million of losses incurred on the sale of AFS securities in the third quarter of 2023.
NONINTEREST EXPENSE
Noninterest expense increased $2.8 million to $108.5 million for the third quarter of 2023 from $105.7 million in the prior quarter, primarily driven by a $10.0 million increase in other expenses, which includes $8.7 million in expenses associated with strategic cost saving initiatives and $2.0 million in merger-related costs. Adjusted operating noninterest expense,(1) which excludes amortization of intangible assets ($2.2 million in both the third quarter and second quarter of 2023), expenses associated with strategic cost savings initiatives ($8.7 million in the third quarter and $3.9 million in the second quarter of 2023), and merger-related costs associated with the American National merger ($2.0 million in the third quarter of 2023), decreased $3.9 million to $95.7 million for the third quarter of 2023 from $99.5 million in the prior quarter. The decrease in adjusted operating noninterest expense(1) was primarily due to a $1.6 million decrease in salaries and benefits expense reflecting the impact of strategic cost saving initiatives, a $1.1 million decrease in professional services expense related to strategic projects in the prior quarter, a $643,000 decrease in technology and data processing expense, and a $598,000 decrease in marketing and advertising expense.
INCOME TAXES
The effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was 17.6% and 17.0%, respectively, and the effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was 16.3% and 17.0%, respectively.
BALANCE SHEET
At September 30, 2023, total assets were $20.7 billion , an increase of $133.9 million or approximately 2.6% (annualized) from June 30, 2023, and an increase of $786.0 million or approximately 3.9% from September 30, 2022. Total assets increased from the prior quarter primarily due to a $216.7 million increase in LHFI (net of deferred fees and costs), partially offset by a $110.3 million decrease in investment securities due primarily to the decline in market value of the AFS securities portfolio due to the impact of market interest rates. Total assets increased from the prior year period primarily due to a $1.4 billion increase in LHFI (net of deferred fees and costs), partially offset by a $607.7 million decrease in investment securities due primarily to the sale of AFS securities in the first and third quarters of 2023.
At September 30, 2023, LHFI (net of deferred fees and costs) totaled $15.3 billion , an increase of $216.7 million or 5.7% (annualized) from $15.1 billion at June 30, 2023.

LHFI (net of deferred fees and costs) increased from the prior quarter primarily due to increases in the multifamily real estate and other commercial portfolios and increased from the same period in the prior year primarily due to increases in the commercial and industrial and commercial real estate non-owner occupied portfolios.
At September 30, 2023, total investments were $3.0 billion , a decrease of $110.3 million from June 30, 2023 and a decrease of $607.7 million from September 30, 2022.

At September 30, 2023, total deposits were $16.8 billion , an increase of $374.5 million or approximately 9.1% (annualized) from June 30, 2023. Average deposits at September 30, 2023 increased from the prior quarter by $515.5 million or 12.6% (annualized). Total deposits at September 30, 2023 increased $240.3 million or 1.5% from September 30, 2022, and quarterly average deposits at September 30, 2023 increased $307.4 million or 1.9% from the same period in the prior year. Total deposits increased from the prior quarter and the prior year period primarily due to increases in interest bearing customer deposits and brokered deposits, partially offset by decreases in demand deposits.
At September 30, 2023, total borrowings were $1.0 billion , a decrease of $299.6 million from June 30, 2023, and an increase of $351.1 million from September 30, 2022. Total borrowings decreased from the prior quarter primarily due to paydowns of short-term borrowings due to deposit growth and increased from the prior year period due to increased short-term borrowings used to fund loan growth.

(1)
These are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes net interest income (FTE), total revenue (FTE), and total adjusted revenue (FTE), which are used in computing net interest margin (FTE), efficiency ratio (FTE) and adjusted operating efficiency ratio (FTE), provide valuable additional insight into the net interest margin and the efficiency ratio by adjusting for differences in tax treatment of interest income sources. The entire FTE adjustment is attributable to interest income on earning assets, which is used in computing yield on earning assets. Interest expense and the related cost of interest-bearing liabilities and cost of funds ratios are not affected by the FTE components.
(2)
These are non-GAAP financial measures. Tangible assets and tangible common equity are used in the calculation of certain profitability, capital, and per share ratios. The Company believes tangible assets, tangible common equity and the related ratios are meaningful measures of capital adequacy because they provide a meaningful base for period-to-period and company-to-company comparisons, which the Company believes will assist investors in assessing the capital of the Company and its ability to absorb potential losses. The Company believes tangible common equity is an important indication of its ability to grow organically and through business combinations as well as its ability to pay dividends and to engage in various capital management strategies.
(3)
These are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company believes that ROTCE is a meaningful supplement to GAAP financial measures and is useful to investors because it measures the performance of a business consistently across time without regard to whether components of the business were acquired or developed internally.
(4)
These are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted operating measures exclude, as applicable, strategic cost saving initiatives (principally composed of severance charges related to headcount reductions, costs related to modifying certain third party vendor contracts, and charges for exiting certain leases), merger-related costs, a legal reserve associated with an ongoing regulatory matter previously disclosed, strategic branch closing and related facility consolidation costs (principally composed of real estate, leases and other assets write downs, as well as severance and expense reduction initiatives), (loss) gain on sale of securities, gain on sale-leaseback transaction, and gain on sale of DHFB. The Company believes these non-GAAP adjusted measures provide investors with important information about the continuing economic results of the organization’s operations.
(5)
All ratios at September 30, 2023 are estimates and subject to change pending the Company’s filing of its FR Y9‑C. All other periods are presented as filed.
(6)
The adjusted operating efficiency ratio (FTE) excludes, as applicable, the amortization of intangible assets, strategic cost saving initiatives, merger-related costs, a legal reserve associated with an ongoing regulatory matter previously disclosed, strategic branch closing and related facility consolidation costs, (loss) gain on sale of securities, gain on sale-leaseback transaction, and gain on sale of DHFB. This measure is similar to the measure utilized by the Company when analyzing corporate performance and is also similar to the measure utilized for incentive compensation. The Company believes this adjusted measure provides investors with important information about the continuing economic results of the organization’s operations.
(7)
These are non-GAAP financial measures. Pre-tax pre-provision adjusted earnings excludes, as applicable, the provision for credit losses, which can fluctuate significantly from period-to-period under the CECL methodology, income tax expense, strategic cost saving initiatives, merger-related costs, a legal reserve associated with an ongoing regulatory matter previously disclosed, strategic branch closure initiatives and related facility consolidation costs, (loss) gain on sale of securities, gain on sale-leaseback transaction, and gain on sale of DHFB. The Company believes this adjusted measure provides investors with important information about the continuing economic results of the Company’s operations.
