MIAMI LAKES, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--BankUnited, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE: BKU) today announced financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2024. "We are very excited about the momentum we've generated and the improvement we've seen in the funding base and profitability profile of the Company over the course of 2024," said Rajinder Singh, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. For the quarter ended December 31, 2024, the Company reported net income of $69.3 million, or $0.91 per diluted share, compared to $61.5 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, for the immediately preceding quarter ended September 30, 2024 and $20.8 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company reported net income of $232.5 million, or $3.08 per diluted share, compared to $178.7 million, or $2.38 per diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2023. Results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2023 were negatively impacted by a $35.4 million FDIC special assessment, pre-tax. This item reduced net income by $26.2 million and EPS by $0.35 for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2023. Quarterly Highlights We continue to execute on strategic priorities focused on improving core profitability. EPS, the net interest margin, ROAA and ROAE have improved notably since the fourth quarter of 2023, as well as for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023. The net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, expanded by 0.06% to 2.84% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 from 2.78% for the immediately preceding quarter and by 0.24% from 2.60% for the comparable quarter of the prior year. Average non-interest bearing demand deposits ("NIDDA") for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 exceeded our expectations and we made outstanding progress reducing the cost of interest bearing deposits. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the net interest margin improved to 2.73% from 2.56% for the year ended December 31, 2023. The average cost of total deposits declined by 0.34% to 2.72% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 from 3.06% for the immediately preceding quarter ended September 30, 2024, while the average cost of interest bearing deposits declined by 0.45% to 3.75% from 4.20% for those same comparable periods. The spot APY of total deposits declined to 2.63% at December 31, 2024 from 2.93% at September 30, 2024 while the spot APY of interest bearing deposits declined to 3.58% at December 31, 2024 from 4.01% at September 30, 2024. Average NIDDA grew by $173 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 compared to the immediately preceding quarter and by $648 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2023. On a point-to-point basis, NIDDA grew by $781 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 and was relatively flat, declining by only $19 million in spite of seasonal headwinds, for the fourth quarter of 2024. At December 31, 2024, NIDDA was 27% of total deposits. Wholesale funding, including FHLB advances and brokered deposits, declined by $346 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2024, wholesale funding declined by $2.3 billion. Total deposits was relatively flat quarter over quarter, growing by $9.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. For the year ended December 31, 2024, total deposits grew by $1.3 billion; non-brokered deposits grew by $1.4 billion. Total loans declined by $101 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024. The core CRE and C&I segments grew by $185 million and mortgage warehouse grew by $14 million. Consistent with our balance sheet strategy, the residential, franchise, equipment and municipal finance portfolios declined by a combined $299 million. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the core CRE and C&I segments grew by $470 million, mortgage warehouse grew by $153 million and the residential, franchise, equipment and municipal finance portfolios declined by a combined $959 million. The pace of C&I growth over the course of 2024 was impacted by an increased level of payoffs and rationalization of non-relationship credits. The loan to deposit ratio declined to 87.2% at December 31, 2024, from 87.6% at September 30, 2024 and 92.8% at December 31, 2023. Total criticized and classified commercial loans declined by $75.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, however, non-performing loans increased by $26.2 million, primarily related to one CRE office loan. The NPA ratio was 0.73%, including 0.10% related to the guaranteed portion of non-accrual SBA loans, at December 31, 2024 compared to 0.64%, including 0.10% related to the guaranteed portion of non-accrual SBA loans at September 30, 2024. The net charge-off ratio for the year ended December 31, 2024 was 0.16%. The ratio of the ACL to total loans was 0.92% at December 31, 2024; the ratio of the ACL to non-performing loans was 89.01%. The ACL to loans ratio for commercial portfolio sub-segments including C&I, CRE, franchise finance and equipment finance was 1.37% at December 31, 2024 and the ACL to loans ratio for CRE office loans was 2.30%. Our commercial real estate exposure totaled 26% of loans and 169% of the Bank's total risk based capital at December 31, 2024. By comparison, based on call report data as of September 30, 2024 (the most recent date available) for banks with between $10 billion and $100 billion in assets, the median level of CRE to total loans was 35% and the median level of CRE to total risk based capital was 222%. At December 31, 2024, the weighted average LTV of the CRE portfolio was 55.0%, the weighted average DSCR was 1.76, 54% of the portfolio was collateralized by properties located in Florida and 25% was collateralized by properties located in the New York tri-state area. For the office sub-segment, the weighted average LTV was 65.2%, the weighted average DSCR was 1.57, 57% was collateralized by properties in Florida, substantially all of which was suburban, and 23% was collateralized by properties located in the New York tri-state area. Our capital position is robust. At December 31, 2024, CET1 was 12.0% at a consolidated level. Pro-forma CET1, including accumulated other comprehensive income, was 10.9% at December 31, 2024. The ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets increased to 7.8% at December 31, 2024. Book value and tangible book value per common share continued to grow, to $37.65 and $36.61, respectively, at December 31, 2024, compared to $37.56 and $36.52, respectively, at September 30, 2024, and $34.66 and $33.62, respectively at December 31, 2023.

The CRE portfolio grew by $227 million and MWL grew by $14 million while the C&I portfolio declined by $43 million. Consistent with our balance sheet strategy, residential loans declined by $207 million; the franchise, equipment, and municipal finance portfolios declined by an aggregate $93 million. Asset Quality and the ACL The following table presents information about the ACL at the dates indicated as well as net charge-off rates for the periods ended December 31, 2024, September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 (dollars in thousands): ACL ACL to Total Loans Commercial ACL to Commercial Loans(2) ACL to Non- Performing Loans Net Charge-offs to Average Loans (1) December 31, 2023 $ 202,689 0.82 % 1.29 % 159.54 % 0.09 % September 30, 2024 $ 228,249 0.94 % 1.41 % 101.68 % 0.12 % December 31, 2024 $ 223,153 0.92 % 1.37 % 89.01 % 0.16 ___________________________ (1) Annualized for the nine months ended September 30, 2024; ratios for December 31, 2024 and 2023 are annual net charge-off rates. (2) For purposes of this ratio, commercial loans includes the core C&I and CRE sub-segments as presented in the table above as well as franchise and equipment finance. Due to their unique risk profiles, MWL and municipal finance are excluded from this ratio. The decline in the ACL coverage ratios at December 31, 2024 as compared to the prior quarter-end is related to C&I charge-offs during the quarter, the majority of which were previously reserved for. The ACL at December 31, 2024 represents management's estimate of lifetime expected credit losses given an assessment of historical data, current conditions, and a reasonable and supportable economic forecast as of the balance sheet date. For the quarter ended December 31, 2024, the provision for credit losses, including both funded and unfunded loan commitments, was $11.0 million, compared to $9.2 million for the immediately preceding quarter ended September 30, 2024 and $19.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. The most significant factor leading to the decrease in ACL for the quarter was net charge offs; this reduction was partially offset by increases in specific reserves, the impact of the economic forecast and an increase in qualitative overlays. Three C&I loans accounted for substantially all of the charge-offs for the quarter. The following table summarizes the activity in the ACL for the periods indicated (in thousands): Three Months Ended Years Ended December 31, 2024 September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 December 31, 2024 December 31, 2023 Beginning balance $ 228,249 $ 225,698 $ 196,063 $ 202,689 $ 147,946 Impact of adoption of new accounting pronouncement (ASU 2022-02) N/A N/A N/A N/A (1,794 ) Balance after impact of adoption of ASU 2022-02 228,249 225,698 196,063 202,689 146,152 Provision 12,267 9,091 16,257 58,986 78,924 Net charge-offs (17,363 ) (6,540 ) (9,631 ) (38,522 ) (22,387 ) Ending balance $ 223,153 $ 228,249 $ 202,689 $ 223,153 $ 202,689 As detailed in the following table, criticized and classified commercial loans declined by $75.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 (in thousands): December 31, 2024 September 30, 2024 December 31, 2023 CRE Total Commercial CRE Total Commercial CRE Total Commercial Special mention $ 58,771 $ 262,387 $ 145,338 $ 323,326 $ 97,552 $ 319,905 Substandard - accruing 633,614 894,754 587,097 932,746 390,724 711,266 Substandard - non-accruing 95,378 219,758 70,860 186,565 13,727 86,903 Doubtful — 6,856 — 16,265 — 19,035 Total $ 787,763 $ 1,383,755 $ 803,295 $ 1,458,902 $ 502,003 $ 1,137,109 Non-performing loans totaled $250.7 million or 1.03% of total loans at December 31, 2024, compared to $224.5 million or 0.92% of total loans at September 30, 2024. The increase in non-performing loans for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 related primarily to one CRE office loan. Non-performing loans included $34.3 million and $35.1 million of the guaranteed portion of SBA loans on non-accrual status, representing 0.14% of total loans at both December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024. Net Interest Income Net interest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 was $239.3 million, compared to $234.1 million for the immediately preceding quarter ended September 30, 2024, and $217.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2023. Interest income decreased by $24.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, compared to the immediately preceding quarter, while interest expense decreased by $29.5 million. The Company’s net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, increased by 0.06% to 2.84% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, from 2.78% for the immediately preceding quarter ended September 30, 2024. Factors impacting the net interest margin for the quarter ended December 31, 2024 were: The average rate paid on interest bearing deposits declined to 3.75% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, from 4.20% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. This decline reflected initiatives taken to lower rates paid on deposits in response to declines in the Fed Funds rate and the re-pricing of term deposits. The average rate paid on FHLB advances declined to 3.82% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, from 4.27% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024, reflecting the repayment or repricing of predominantly shorter term high rate advances. The tax-equivalent yield on loans declined to 5.60% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, from 5.87% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024 reflecting the impact of declining market rates on the predominantly floating rate commercial portfolio. The tax-equivalent yield on investments declined to 5.31% for the quarter ended December 31, 2024, from 5.62% for the quarter ended September 30, 2024. This decrease resulted primarily from the reset of coupon rates on variable rate securities. Overall, the reduction in cost of interest bearing liabilities outpaced the decline in the yield on interest earning assets. Non-interest income and Non-interest expense Lease financing: Declines in both lease financing income and depreciation of operating lease equipment for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to the year ended December 31, 2023 corresponded with the reduction in the portfolio of operating lease equipment. Quarterly fluctuations in lease financing income may be caused by variability in residual income. Other non-interest income: Year-over-year increases in other non-interest income include increases in loan related and syndication fees, commercial card revenue and income related to bank owned life insurance. Employee compensation and benefits: Year-over-year increases in compensation relate to investments we are making in people to support future growth of the commercial business, regular merit increases, and increased variable compensation cost, related in part to an increase in the Company's stock price. As discussed above, non-interest expense for the year and three months ended December 31, 2023 included a $35.4 million FDIC special assessment. Railcar refurbishment costs of approximately $8 million that we had expected to incur in the fourth quarter of 2024 did not materialize, and are expected instead to occur in 2025.
