Three years into its enterprise-wide transformation, firm reports significant progress towards financial and strategic targets

DALLAS, Sept. 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Texas Capital Bancshares, Inc., the parent company of Texas Capital, led by President & CEO, Rob C. Holmes, today announced a series of actions that materially progresses the firm towards realization of the performance targets outlined in its strategic plan, communicated on September 1, 2021.

“Three years after announcing our strategic plan, we are pleased with the tremendous progress made building a balance sheet and a business model worthy of serving the best clients in our markets,” said Rob C. Holmes. “Actions announced today represent another deliberate step in translating observed strategic success into targeted financial performance associated with long-term value creation. We remain focused on delivering exceptional results for clients and shareholders by leveraging our differentiated platform.”

Strategic Acquisition in Focus Area

Following the multi-year coverage and capability build in its corporate banking healthcare vertical, Texas Capital has entered into an agreement to acquire a portfolio of approximately $400 million in committed exposure to companies in the healthcare sector. Many of the companies in the portfolio are supported by sector-focused sponsors with notable track records of value creation and with whom Texas Capital has significant institutional knowledge. The firm expects these clients to benefit from an extensive solutions-focused platform, with revenue cycle management, healthcare asset-based lending and other sector-specific products integrated with differentiated cash management, commercial banking and investment banking capabilities. The transaction is expected to close this month, subject to customary closing conditions.

Balance Sheet Repositioning

In addition to deliberate investments to expand the portfolio and enhance client-facing services, in August of 2024 the firm continued its multi-year process of effectively rationalizing its legacy balance sheet, selling approximately $1.24 billion of available-for-sale securities with an average book yield of 1.23%, purchased prior to 2021. Cash proceeds from the sale were used to purchase $1.06 billion of securities at a yield of 5.26%, which is expected to contribute an incremental $35 to $40 million in net interest income on an annualized basis based on the federal funds futures curve. The $139 million after tax loss generated by the repositioning, which had no impact on GAAP equity or on Texas Capital’s industry leading tangible common equity to tangible assets ratio, is expected to result in a net loss for the third quarter of 2024 before notably improving forward profitability metrics in the fourth quarter of 2024 and subsequent reporting periods.

Structural Operating Model Enhancements

The firm continues to leverage proven capabilities to deliver tech-enabled process improvements that enhance client journeys, reduce risk and deliver structural efficiencies. Action taken in the quarter is expected to reduce anticipated 2025 non-interest expense by approximately $30 million, keeping total non-interest expense nearly flat from adjusted full year 2024. This reduction in non-interest expense is the direct result of material investments made over the previous three years that continue to realign the expense base to support near-term financial performance while also enabling sustained investment to drive long-term strategic objectives.

Expanded Products and Capabilities to Further Serve Clients

Texas Capital Securities Energy Equity Research – To expand Texas Capital Securities’ ability to serve its Corporate & Investment Banking clients in the energy industry and adjacent sectors, Texas Capital today announced the hiring of a research and equity specialty sales team led by Derrick Whitfield and Thomas McGarrity. Energy Equity Research is intended to enhance the firm’s transaction capabilities, investment insights and dedicated coverage of the energy sector, while also providing a platform to further expand its Institutional Services businesses. Texas Capital Securities Energy Equity Research is expected to publish initiation reports on an initial coverage universe no later than early 2025.

Texas Capital Direct Lending – In August 2024, Texas Capital announced the launch of its Direct Lending platform led by Tim Laczkowski. Texas Capital Direct Lending (TCDL) is focused on providing non-bank term loans to middle market companies, enabling Texas Capital clients and prospects to access a wider array of capital alternatives while enjoying the benefits of Texas Capital’s full suite of commercial and investment banking products. The launch of TCDL further extends Texas Capital’s ability to provide comprehensive solutions and solidifies the firm’s position as the “first call” for middle market companies headquartered in Texas and beyond.

Texas Capital Public Finance – In May 2024, Texas Capital announced the formation of Texas Capital Securities’ Public Finance team to provide municipal underwriting services to governments, nonprofits and institutions in the state of Texas and across the country. Led by industry veteran Steven Genyk, the team now includes dedicated bankers located in Dallas, Houston and Austin aligned against the significant opportunity to serve these important constituents.

Texas Capital SBA Lending – The firm remains committed to serving businesses through the entirety of their lifecycles, with expansion of tailored services for Business Banking clients designed to accelerate client acquisition moving into next year. Leveraging improved coverage and delivery, Texas Capital expects to be a top five SBA lender each year to Texas-based businesses by 2025.

The Texas Capital Transformation

Over the past three years, Texas Capital has undergone an enterprise-wide transformation to become the premier full-service financial services firm, headquartered in Texas, equipped to provide clients with a wide range of differentiated and relevant products and services. Several notable achievements include:

  • Delivered Peer-Leading Balance Sheet Strength – Dedicated to the principle of financial resilience through market and rate cycles, the firm’s disciplined balance sheet repositioning throughout the transformation resulted in both a 357 bps increase in total regulatory capital since year-end 2020, and sector-leading capital levels when measured against the largest U.S. banks1.
  • Launched Texas Capital Securities – The investment bank, founded in 2021, now complements the firm’s commercial banking competency by delivering a complete set of solutions to clients within Texas Capital’s defined areas of geographic and industry coverage. From its opening in December 2021, the firm has completed over $135 billion in securities trading volume, delivered the largest sole arranged institutional term loans in the country in both 2023 and 20242 and built a broad business capable of delivering advisory, capital markets and other financial solutions. Texas Capital expects to achieve its published target of 10% of total revenue in full-year 2024, a year earlier than the target initially set in 2021.
  • Best-in-Class Treasury Solutions Platform – The firm’s significant multi-year investment to make industry-leading cash management capabilities available to clients continues to result in peer-leading growth in primary operating relationships, revenue and client deposits. Through the second quarter of 2024, treasury product fees as a percentage of revenue has more than doubled from full-year 2020, which, when coupled with top quartile growth in client deposits3, signifies material progress leveraging a best-in-class product and service offerings to effectively satisfy clients’ deposit and cash management needs.
