NEWARK, Del. -- (Business Wire)
Sallie Mae (Nasdaq: SLM), formally SLM Corporation, today released
third-quarter 2017 financial results that include growth in portfolio
size, net interest income, diluted earnings per share and originations.
In the third-quarter 2017, the company expanded its private education
loan portfolio 24 percent to $17.0 billion, increased its net interest
income 26 percent to $282 million, increased its diluted earnings per
share 42 percent to $0.17, and increased its private education loan
originations 3 percent to $1.9 billion, all compared with the third
quarter of 2016.
“The third quarter includes the back-to-school season for millions of
families and the peak of our lending activity. It is gratifying to have
helped 221,000 students return to campus to continue their college
education and provide them with access to industry-leading tutoring
services as an added benefit,” said Raymond J. Quinlan, chairman and
CEO. “Our mission is to help students achieve the dream of higher
education, and that’s why we focus on helping families save, plan, and
pay for college. During the quarter, 425,000 students and their families
explored the free financial literacy resources on our website to find
scholarship and grant opportunities, learn how to pay for college, and
use calculators to manage prudently their student loan debt. We take
pride in our customers’ strong performance during college and after
graduation, and we are pleased that platform and customer experience
investments continue to yield a healthy loan portfolio and an improved
efficiency ratio.”
For the third-quarter 2017, GAAP net income was $76 million, compared
with $57 million in the year-ago quarter. GAAP net income attributable
to the company’s common stock was $73 million ($0.17 diluted earnings
per share) in the third-quarter 2017, compared with $52 million
($0.12 diluted earnings per share) in the year-ago quarter. The
year-over-year increase was primarily attributable to a $59 million
increase in net interest income and a $7 million decrease in income tax
expense, which was offset by a $13 million increase in provisions for
credit losses, a $17 million decrease in other income, and a $16 million
increase in total non-interest expenses.
Third-quarter 2017 results vs. third-quarter 2016 included:
-
Private education loan originations of $1.9 billion, up 3 percent.
-
Net interest income of $282 million, up 26 percent.
-
Net interest margin of 5.85 percent, up 27 basis points.
-
Average private education loans outstanding of $16.2 billion, up 26
percent.
-
Average yield on the private education loan portfolio was 8.50
percent, up 50 basis points.
-
Private education loan provision for loan losses was $53 million, up
from $41 million.
-
Private education loans in forbearance were 3.2 percent of private
education loans in repayment and forbearance, up from 3.0 percent.
-
Private education loan delinquencies as a percentage of private
education loans in repayment were 2.6 percent, up from 2.0 percent.
Core earnings for the third-quarter 2017 were $75 million, compared with
$56 million in the year-ago quarter. Core earnings attributable to the
company’s common stock grew 42 percent to $72 million ($0.17 diluted
earnings per share) in the third-quarter 2017, compared with $51 million
($0.12 diluted earnings per share) in the year-ago quarter.
Sallie Mae provides core earnings because it is one of several measures
management uses to evaluate management performance and allocate
corporate resources. The difference between core earnings and GAAP net
income is driven by mark-to-market unrealized gains and losses on
derivative contracts recognized in GAAP, but not in core earnings
results. Management believes its derivatives are effective economic
hedges, and, as such, they are a critical element of the company’s
interest rate risk management strategy.
Included in GAAP results for third-quarter 2017 and 2016 were $1.5
million and $1 million of pre-tax gains from derivative accounting
treatment, respectively, that are excluded from core earnings results.
Total Non-Interest Expenses
Total non-interest expenses were $116 million in the third-quarter 2017,
compared with $100 million in the year-ago quarter. Operating expenses
grew 16 percent from the year-ago quarter, while the non-GAAP operating
efficiency ratio decreased to 40.6 percent in the third-quarter 2017
from 40.7 percent in the year-ago quarter. Excluding FDIC assessment
fees, which grew 50 percent as a result of a 24 percent increase in our
private education loan portfolio, non-interest expenses grew 15 percent
from the year-ago quarter.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense decreased to $41 million in the third-quarter 2017
from $47 million in the year-ago quarter. The effective income tax rate
decreased in the third-quarter 2017 to 34.7 percent from 45.5 percent in
the year-ago quarter, primarily due to a reduction in state taxes and
the release of reserves for uncertain tax positions. The rate in the
third quarter of 2016 was negatively affected by a $9 million increase
in the reserve for indemnified uncertain tax positions. The changes due
to indemnified uncertain tax positions had no impact on earnings per
share as we recorded a matching offset in other income related to the
tax indemnification.
Capital
The regulatory capital ratios of the company’s Sallie Mae Bank
subsidiary continue to exceed guidelines for institutions considered
“well capitalized.” At Sept. 30, 2017, Sallie Mae Bank’s regulatory
capital ratios were as follows:

deposits and $7.3 billion in retail and other deposits) at Sept. 30,
2017, compared with total deposits of $12.9 billion ($7.8 billion in
brokered deposits and $5.1 billion in retail and other deposits) at
Sept. 30, 2016.
Guidance
The company expects 2017 results to be as follows:
-
Full-year diluted core earnings per share: $0.72.
-
Full-year private education loan originations of $4.8 billion.
-
Full-year non-GAAP operating efficiency ratio: 38 percent - 39 percent.

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” and
information based on management’s current expectations as of the date of
this release. Statements that are not historical facts, including
statements about the company’s beliefs, opinions or expectations and
statements that assume or are dependent upon future events, are
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to
risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that may cause
actual results to be materially different from those reflected in such
forward-looking statements. These factors include, among others, the
risks and uncertainties set forth in Item 1A “Risk Factors” and
elsewhere in the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
Dec. 31, 2016 (filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”)
on Feb. 24, 2017) and subsequent filings with the SEC; increases in
financing costs; limits on liquidity; increases in costs associated with
compliance with laws and regulations; failure to comply with consumer
protection, banking and other laws; changes in accounting standards and
the impact of related changes in significant accounting estimates; any
adverse outcomes in any significant litigation to which the company is a
party; credit risk associated with the company’s exposure to third
parties, including counterparties to the company’s derivative
transactions; and changes in the terms of education loans and the
educational credit marketplace (including changes resulting from new
laws and the implementation of existing laws). The company could also be
affected by, among other things: changes in its funding costs and
availability; reductions to its credit ratings; failures or breaches of
its operating systems or infrastructure, including those of third-party
vendors; damage to its reputation; risks associated with restructuring
initiatives, including failures to successfully implement cost-cutting
and restructuring initiatives and the adverse effects of such
initiatives on the company's business; changes in the demand for
educational financing or in financing preferences of lenders,
educational institutions, students and their families; changes in law
and regulations with respect to the student lending business and
financial institutions generally; changes in banking rules and
regulations, including increased capital requirements; increased
competition from banks and other consumer lenders; the creditworthiness
of the company's customers; changes in the general interest rate
environment, including the rate relationships among relevant
money-market instruments and those of the company's earning assets
versus the company's funding arrangements; rates of prepayments on the
loans made by the company and its subsidiaries; changes in general
economic conditions and the company's ability to successfully effectuate
any acquisitions; and other strategic initiatives. The preparation of
the company’s consolidated financial statements also requires management
to make certain estimates and assumptions, including estimates and
assumptions about future events. These estimates or assumptions may
prove to be incorrect. All forward-looking statements contained in this
release are qualified by these cautionary statements and are made only
as of the date of this release. The company does not undertake any
obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements to
conform such statements to actual results or changes in its expectations.
The company reports financial results on a GAAP basis and also provides
certain “Core Earnings” performance measures. The difference between the
company’s “Core Earnings” and GAAP results for the periods presented
were the unrealized, mark-to-market gains/losses on derivative contracts
(excluding current period accruals on the derivative instruments), net
of tax. These are recognized in GAAP, but not in “Core Earnings”
results. The company provides “Core Earnings” measures because this is
what management uses when making management decisions regarding the
company’s performance and the allocation of corporate resources. The
company’s “Core Earnings” are not defined terms within GAAP and may not
be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
For additional information, see “Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations — GAAP Consolidated
Earnings Summary -‘Core Earnings’” in the company’s Form 10-Q for the
quarter ended Sept. 30, 2017 for a further discussion and the “‘Core
Earnings’ to GAAP Reconciliation” table in this press release for a
complete reconciliation between GAAP net income and “Core Earnings.”
In 2016, our non-GAAP operating efficiency ratio was calculated for the
periods presented as the ratio of (a) the total non-interest expense
numerator to (b) the net revenue denominator (which consisted of net
interest income, before provision for credit losses, plus non-interest
income).
In the first-quarter 2017, we began calculating and reporting our
non-GAAP operating efficiency ratio as the ratio of (a) the total
non-interest expense numerator to (b) the net revenue denominator (which
consists of the sum of net interest income, before provision for credit
losses, and non-interest income, less the net impact of derivative
accounting as defined in the "‘Core Earnings’ to GAAP Reconciliation"
table in this Press Release). We believe this change will improve
visibility into our management of operating expenses over time and
eliminate the variability in this ratio that may be related to the
changes in fair value of our derivative contracts that we consider
economic hedges and which do not affect how we manage operating
expenses. This change conforms the treatment of our hedging activities
in our operating efficiency ratio to our non-GAAP “Core Earnings”
measure. The impact of this change on the non-GAAP operating efficiency
ratio reported in each of our prior quarterly and annual periods is
immaterial. This ratio provides useful information to investors because
it is a measure used by our management team to monitor our effectiveness
in managing operating expenses. Other companies may use similarly titled
non-GAAP financial measures that are calculated differently from our
ratio. Accordingly, our non-GAAP operating efficiency ratio may not be
comparable to similar measures used by other companies.

______
|
| |
(1) Derivative Accounting: “Core Earnings” exclude periodic
unrealized gains and losses caused by the mark-to-market valuations
on derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment
under GAAP, as well as the periodic unrealized gains and losses that
are a result of ineffectiveness recognized related to effective
hedges under GAAP (but include current period accruals on the
derivative instruments), net of tax. Under GAAP, for our derivatives
held to maturity, the cumulative net unrealized gain or loss over
the life of the contract will equal $0.
|
| |
|
| |
(2) “Core Earnings” tax rate is based on the effective tax rate at
the Bank where the derivative instruments are held.
