Home Capital Reports fourth quarter and full year 2017 Results

This press release should be read in conjunction with the Company's 2017 Annual and Fourth Quarter Consolidated Financial Report including Financial Statements and Management's Discussion and Analysis (MD&A), which are available on Home Capital's website at www.homecapital.com and on SEDAR at www.sedar.com.

"Our improved fourth quarter performance capped an important year for Home Capital employees, customers, brokers and shareholders," said Yousry Bissada, President and Chief Executive Officer, Home Capital Group. "We have demonstrated progress towards growing our residential and commercial business lines to more normal and sustainable levels and our employees delivered improved service. The steps we have taken to ensure we provide efficient and effective service to brokers and customers will help us to drive profitable growth going forward."

"We are entering 2018 with positive momentum in our business. We have turned the corner and expect to grow from here, responsibly, with sustainable risk management practices embedded in our culture," Mr. Bissada continued. "We have a strong capital position and balance sheet. We will use our position of strength to seize opportunities to invest in, and grow, our business to create value."

Corporate Update

Home Capital ended 2017 with a strong capital position, poised for sustainable growth and with a clear goal of regaining its leading market share position in Canada's Alt-A mortgage market.

Management and the Board of Directors are focused on completing a strategy that will take advantage of the Company's capital position and balance sheet to invest in the business, drive profitable growth and create long-term shareholder value. 

In the near term, management's key areas of focus are:

1.

Profitably growing residential and commercial business lines to more sustainable levels and increasing market share.

2.

Improving service levels through training initiatives that will empower employees to deliver best-in-class service.

3.

Increasing renewal and retention rates.

4.

Increasing broker outreach to advance higher-quality applications.

5.

Maintaining competitive product offerings.

6.

Innovating and applying technology in the mortgage business to enhance customer and broker experiences.               

 

In addition, the Company is operating in the context of an evolving regulatory landscape that will affect its primary residential mortgage market, although the extent of any impact is not yet clear. Management and the Board of Directors will continue to assess opportunities for the business as it relates to the current environment during the first and second quarters of 2018.

Fourth Quarter 2017 Financial Position

  • Total loans under administration of $22.51 billion, which includes securitized mortgages that qualify for off-balance sheet accounting, decreased by 14.8% or $3.91 billion from $26.42 billion at the end of 2016, and 3.1% or $719.2 million from $23.23 billion at the end of Q3 2017.
  • Total loans of $15.06 billion declined 16.5% from $18.04 billion at the end of 2016, and 2.4% from $15.43 billion at the end of Q3 2017. 
    • Total mortgages originated of $872.1 million, compared to $2.43 billion in Q4 2016 and $385.1 million in Q3 2017. 
    • Single-family residential mortgage originations of $566.0 million in Q4 2017, compared with $1.78 billion in Q4 2016 and $224.0 million in Q3 2017.
    • Multi-unit residential mortgage originations of $194.8 million, compared to $371.5 million in Q4 2016 and $99.1 million in Q3 2017. Multi-unit residential mortgage originations are mostly insured and subsequently securitized through programs that qualify for off-balance sheet accounting.
    • Non-residential commercial mortgage originations, which include store and apartment mortgages, of $111.2 million, compared to $277.3 million in Q4 2016 and $62.0 million in Q3 2017.
  • Liquid assets were $1.65 billion, compared to $2.07 billion at the end of 2016 and $2.66 billion at September 30, 2017.  The Company maintains a prudent level of liquidity, given the current level of operations, loan balances and the Company's obligations.
  • Total deposits were $12.17 billion, compared to $15.89 billion at the end of 2016 and $13.36 billion at the end of Q3 2017.
    • The decrease in deposits from the end of last year reflects the elevated level of redemptions of the Company's High-Interest Savings Accounts during the Q2 2017 liquidity event and lower funding requirements due to lower loan balances. 
    • The decrease in deposits from the end of last quarter reflects the Company's intentional actions to slow the inflow of deposits to match expected mortgage originations.  During the third quarter, the Company decided to offer premium rates on deposits to increase inflows following the Q2 2017 liquidity event.  The growth of deposits outpaced loan growth and created a drag on earnings. Consequently, by the end of the third quarter, the Company reduced interest rates on new deposits to intentionally lower deposits until mortgage balances began to grow.
    • The Company created net deposits inflows mid-way through the fourth quarter by increasing interest rates paid on new and renewed deposits to meet expected mortgage funding requirements.  It is expected that the Company may be required to offer higher interest rates on new deposits in future periods.  It is assumed that any such increases could be offset by increased interest rates charged on mortgages originated or renewed in future periods. Any inability to pass on any increased funding costs would negatively impact net interest margins.

Credit Quality

The loan portfolio remained strong with the level of credit losses and non-performing loans remaining low. Provision for credit losses (PCL) for the quarter was $3.4 million, compared to $2.4 million in Q4 2016 and a $4.3 million release in Q3 2017.

  • The annualized credit provision as a percentage of gross uninsured loans was 0.12%, compared to 0.07% in Q4 2016 and (0.14)% in Q3 2017. 
    • The increase in the PCL ratio over last year resulted from a specific provision of $2.2 million against one non-residential commercial mortgage.  The negative PCL ratio in the third quarter resulted from the reduction of $6.5 million in the collective allowance for the non-residential commercial portfolio related to asset sales (see Note 5(H) of the consolidated financial statements for more information).  In the absence of this reduction, the PCL ratio in Q3 2017 would have been 0.07%.
  • Net non-performing loans as a percentage of gross loans ended 2017 at 0.30%, compared to 0.28% at the end of Q3 2017 and unchanged from the end of 2016. 
    • Although the percentage of net non-performing loans over gross loans was consistent year over year and sequentially, there was a significant change in the mix of net non-performing residential and commercial mortgages. 
    • The net amount of non-performing non-residential commercial mortgages increased to $13.7 million at Q4 2017 from $4.5 million at Q4 2016 and $6.2 million at Q3 2017, and the net amount of non-performing single-family residential mortgages decreased to $30.1 million from $47.9 million at Q4 2016 and $36.1 million at Q3 2017.
    • Total net non-performing loan balances decreased to $45.4 million at Q4 2017 from $53.7 million at Q4 2016 and increased from $43.6 million at Q3 2017.
  • The Company adopted IFRS 9 beginning January 1, 2018. The impact of the adoption of IFRS 9 is not expected to be significant. Additional information on the impacts of IFRS 9 will be made available in the Company's Report to Shareholders for the first quarter of 2018.

Capital Position

The Company maintained strong capital ratios well above Company targets and regulatory minimums at the end of 2017. Management continues to review opportunities to deploy capital in the most efficient manner to maximize shareholder value.

  • Home Trust's Common Equity Tier 1 and Total capital ratios remained very strong at 23.17% and 23.68%, respectively, at December 31, 2017. The comparative balances were 16.55% and 16.97%, respectively, at December 31, 2016.
  • Home Trust's Leverage ratio was 8.70% at December 31, 2017 and 7.20% at December 31, 2016.

Looking Forward

Looking to 2018, the Company's strong capital position and balance sheet, stable deposit funding base and ample liquidity provide a solid foundation for future investment in the business and to be competitive in the Canadian market.

Management is confident it is well-positioned to deliver sustainable loan growth as well as improved execution and service levels to increase market share. As the business grows, management and the Board are committed to the ongoing enhancement of risk management and corporate governance practices to grow the business responsibly. Creating long-term shareholder value and resuming Home Capital's nearly 30-year track record of profitable growth are priorities for the Company.

Management's Responsibility for Financial Information

The Company's Audit Committee reviewed this document along with the Company's 2017 Annual and Fourth Quarter Consolidated Financial Report.  The Company's Board of Directors approved both documents prior to their release. A full description of management's responsibility for financial information is included in the Company's 2017 Annual and Fourth Quarter Consolidated Financial Report.

Caution Regarding Forward-looking Statements

From time to time Home Capital Group Inc. makes written and verbal forward-looking statements. These are included in the Annual Report, periodic reports to shareholders, regulatory filings, press releases, Company presentations and other Company communications. Forward-looking statements are made in connection with business objectives and targets, Company strategies, operations, anticipated financial results and the outlook for the Company, its industry, and the Canadian economy. These statements regarding expected future performance are "financial outlooks" within the meaning of National Instrument 51-102.  Please see the risk factors, which are set forth in detail in the Risk Management section of the Company's 2017 Annual and Fourth Quarter Consolidated Financial Report, as well as the Company's other publicly filed information, which is available on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval (SEDAR) at www.sedar.com, for the material factors that could cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from these statements.  These risk factors are material risk factors a reader should consider, and include credit risk, liquidity and funding risk, structural interest rate risk, operational risk, investment risk, strategic risk, reputational risk, compliance risk and capital adequacy risk along with additional risk factors that may affect future results.  Forward-looking statements can be found in the Report to the Shareholders and the Outlook section in the Annual Report.   Forward-looking statements are typically identified by words such as "will," "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "should," "estimate," "plan," "forecast," "may," and "could" or other similar expressions. 

By their very nature, these statements require the Company to make assumptions and are subject to inherent risks and uncertainty, general and specific, which may cause actual results to differ materially from the expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements.  These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, global capital market activity, changes in government monetary and economic policies, changes in interest rates, inflation levels and general economic conditions, legislative and regulatory developments, competition and technological change. The preceding list is not exhaustive of possible factors.

These and other factors should be considered carefully and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. The Company presents forward-looking statements to assist shareholders in understanding the Company's assumptions and expectations about the future that are relevant in management's setting of performance goals, strategic priorities and outlook. The Company presents its outlook to assist shareholders in understanding management's expectations on how the future will impact the financial performance of the Company. These forward-looking statements may not be appropriate for other purposes. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements, whether written or verbal, that may be made from time to time by it or on its behalf, except as required by securities laws.

Assumptions about the performance of the Canadian economy in 2018 and its effect on Home Capital's business are material factors the Company considers when setting its performance goals, strategic priorities and outlook.  In determining expectations for economic growth, both broadly and in the financial services sector, the Company primarily considers historical and forecasted economic data provided by the Canadian government and its agencies.  In setting and reviewing its strategic priorities and outlook for 2018, management's expectations continue to assume:

  • The Canadian economy is expected to be relatively stable in 2018, supported by expanded Federal Government spending.
  • Generally, the Company expects stable employment conditions in its established regions. Also, the Company expects inflation will generally be within the Bank of Canada's target of 1% to 3%, leading to stable credit losses and demand for the Company's lending products in its established regions.
  • The Canadian economy will continue to be influenced by the economic conditions in the United States and global markets and further adjustments in commodity prices; as such, the Company is prepared for the variability that may result.
  • While the Company is assuming that interest rates will experience modest increases in 2018, the impact of such increases is not expected to be material. The level of interest rates is expected to continue to support relatively low mortgage interest rates for the foreseeable future.
  • The Company believes that the current and expected levels of housing activity indicate a relatively stable real estate market overall. Please see Market Conditions under the 2018 Overall Outlook section of the Company's 2017 Annual and Fourth Quarter Consolidated Financial Report for more discussion on the Company's expectations for the housing market.
  • The Company expects that consumer debt levels, while elevated, will remain serviceable by Canadian households.
  • The Company will have access to the mortgage and deposit markets through broker networks.

Non-GAAP Measures

The Company has adopted IFRS as its accounting framework. IFRS are the generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for Canadian publicly accountable enterprises for years beginning on or after January 1, 2011. The Company uses a number of financial measures to assess its performance.  Some of these measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, are not defined by GAAP, and do not have standardized meanings that would ensure consistency and comparability between companies using these measures.  Definitions of non-GAAP measures can be found under Non-GAAP Measures in the Management's Discussion and Analysis included in of the Company's 2017 Annual and Fourth Quarter Consolidated Financial Report.

Regulatory Filings

The Company's continuous disclosure materials, including interim filings, annual Management's Discussion and Analysis and audited consolidated financial statements, Annual Information Form, Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders, and Proxy Circular are available on the Company's website at www.homecapital.com and on the Canadian Securities Administrators' website at www.sedar.com.
