Asset Quality
Non-performing assets were $163.5 million, or 0.94 percent of total assets, at March 31, 2015, compared to $150.5 million, or 0.88 percent of total assets, at December 31, 2014 and $170.2 million, or 1.01 percent of total assets, at March 31, 2014. The $13.0 million, or 8.7 percent, increase in non-performing assets in comparison to the fourth quarter of 2014 was primarily due to an increase in non-performing commercial loans.
Annualized net charge-offs for the quarter ended March 31, 2015 were 0.08 percent of average total loans, compared to 0.25 percent for the quarter ended December 31, 2014 and 0.26 percent for the quarter ended March 31, 2014. The allowance for credit losses as a percentage of non-performing loans was 120.3 percent at March 31, 2015, as compared to 134.3 percent at December 31, 2014 and 128.5 percent at March 31, 2014.
During the first quarter of 2015, the Corporation recorded a $3.7 million negative provision for credit losses, compared to a $3.0 million provision for credit losses in the fourth quarter of 2014. The $6.7 million provision improvement was driven by an improvement in net charge-off levels and lower allocation needs on impaired loans.
Non-interest Income
Non-interest income, excluding investment securities gains, decreased $661,000, or 1.6 percent, in comparison to the fourth quarter of 2014. Service charges on deposit accounts decreased $660,000, or 5.4 percent, primarily due to a decrease in overdraft fees. Other service charges and fees decreased $1.1 million, or 10.7 percent, primarily due to decreases in debit card, merchant fee and commercial loan swap fee income. Partially offsetting these decreases was a $965,000, or 25.9 percent, increase in mortgage banking income due to an increase in loan volumes.
Gains on sales of investment securities increased $3.3 million in comparison to the fourth quarter of 2014 due to the sale of two pooled trust preferred debt securities during the first quarter of 2015 and an increase in gains on sales of equity securities.
Non-interest Expense
During the first quarter of 2015, the Corporation implemented several cost savings initiatives, including the consolidation of nine branches, the modification of certain retirement benefits and the elimination of certain positions. Annualized expense reductions from these cost savings initiatives are expected to be approximately $6.5 million. Implementation expenses associated with these initiatives incurred during the first quarter of 2015 were $1.5 million.
Non-interest expense increased $758,000, or 0.6 percent, in the first quarter of 2015, compared to the fourth quarter of 2014. Occupancy expense increased $2.2 million, or 19.3 percent, in comparison to the fourth quarter, due primarily to the aforementioned implementation costs associated with the nine branch consolidations and seasonal increases in snow removal and utilities costs. Other real estate owned (OREO) and repossession expense increased $1.1 million, primarily due to an increase in net losses on sales of OREO. Partially offsetting these increases were a $3.0 million, or 34.1 percent, decrease in other outside services, a $1.2 million, or 48.9 percent, decrease in marketing expenses, and a $408,000, or 0.6 percent, decrease in salaries and employee benefits. The decrease in salaries and employee benefits was due to cost savings associated with the aforementioned retirement plan changes and a reduction in healthcare costs, partially offset by a seasonal increase in payroll taxes, an increase in severance and higher defined benefit pension costs.
Share Repurchase Program
As previously noted, the Corporation's board of directors today approved the repurchase of up to $50.0 million of shares of the Corporation's common stock, or approximately 2.3 percent of the Corporation's outstanding shares, through December 31, 2015. As of March 31, 2015, the Corporation had approximately 179 million shares of common stock outstanding.
As permitted by securities laws and other legal requirements and subject to market conditions and other factors, purchases may be made from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions, including without limitation, through accelerated share repurchase transactions.
