Positive Points UMB Financial Corp (NASDAQ:UMBF) reported strong net income available for common shareholders of $215.4 million, with a significant pre-tax gain of $37.7 million from prior investments. The company achieved a notable 8 basis point expansion in net interest margin and double-digit balance sheet growth. Average loans increased by 12.7% to $36.4 billion, and average deposits rose by 10.7% to $55.6 billion, reflecting solid organic growth. UMB Financial Corp (NASDAQ:UMBF) successfully executed a pilot conversion of Heartland's Minnesota franchise, positioning well for a full conversion in October. The company completed an offering of Series B preferred stock, netting $294 million of Tier 1 capital, enhancing its capital position. Negative Points The company incurred $13.5 million in acquisition expenses, impacting overall net income. Total net charge-offs for the quarter were 17 basis points, with credit card charge-offs being a significant contributor. Operating expenses included $23.4 million in acquisition-related amortization of intangibles, adding to the cost burden. UMB Financial Corp (NASDAQ:UMBF) anticipates third-quarter operating expenses to be slightly higher, driven by merit increases and incentive accruals. The cost of interest-bearing deposits remained flat, but total deposit costs increased, reflecting a mixed shift. Q & A Highlights Q: Can you provide more details on the significant loan growth this quarter and how much of it is attributed to Heartland? A: Mariner Kemper, Chairman and CEO, explained that the loan growth aligns with expectations, with strong production from both Heartland and UMB's legacy team. The quarter saw nearly $2 billion in top-line production, and similar numbers are expected in the next quarter across all categories and regions. Q: How are you managing the alignment of the UMB and Heartland portfolios, and what impact do you expect from payoffs and paydowns? A: Mariner Kemper noted that while some credits may not align with UMB's standards and could be phased out, the overall impact on the balance sheet will be immaterial. The focus is on maintaining a stable payoff level on a combined basis. Q: What is the expected impact of the HSA changes under the new budget bill on long-term growth in deposits and fees? A: Jim Rine, President and CEO of UMB Bank, stated that while the changes could open up eligibility to around 7 million more people, the impact is expected to be marginal. The company is prepared to provide education to newly eligible individuals but does not anticipate a significant windfall. Q: How should we think about expense growth after the integration of Heartland, and what are the expectations for cost savings? A: Ram Shankar, CFO, mentioned that the second phase of cost savings from the Heartland transaction will occur in the fourth and first quarters. The focus is on achieving positive operating leverage, and while specific expense growth rates are not provided, the company aims to achieve all targeted cost savings from the transaction. Q: Can you elaborate on the credit quality at Heartland and the expected path for non-performing loans (NPLs) and net charge-offs (NCOs)? A: Mariner Kemper indicated that NPLs have started to decrease and are expected to continue improving month over month. The company anticipates that charge-offs will remain at or near historical averages for the second half of the year, reflecting confidence in the portfolio's performance. Q: What are you seeing in terms of deposit competition, and how do you expect deposit pricing to evolve? A: Mariner Kemper explained that commercial and institutional deposits are competitive but manageable, with growth possible at institutional money market rates. The consumer segment has seen 1% to 2% growth, and with an expanded branch network and marketing campaigns, UMB expects to capture more consumer deposits. Q: Are there any synergies being realized on the fee revenue side from the HTLF acquisition? A: Mariner Kemper noted that while it's early, there is positive momentum with activities such as credit card sales and mortgage loan applications. The company anticipates more opportunities for corporate trust referrals, with energy levels and pipelines building. Q: How is the Heartland team contributing to balance sheet growth, and is there more capacity for growth? A: Mariner Kemper stated that the Heartland team is just beginning to show its potential, with significant opportunities for future contributions to balance sheet growth. The current results are only the start of what the team can achieve. Q: What is the outlook for the core margin, and how might it be affected by potential Fed rate cuts? A: Ram Shankar explained that the core margin is expected to remain flat in the third quarter. If the Fed cuts rates, it could positively impact the margin as indexed deposits would reprice down. The company is prepared for various scenarios, with fixed asset repricing and other factors providing potential tailwinds. Q: How sustainable is the growth rate in fund services revenue, and what are the prospects for this business line? A: Mariner Kemper expressed confidence in the fund services business, citing strong client service ratings and a robust technology stack. The business benefits from industry disruption and a strong pipeline, with expectations for continued growth driven by both existing client success and new business acquisition.

Next hikes outlook after sales boosted by weather and M&S woes
Next has upped its annual sales and profit outlook once again after better-than-expected trading thanks to hot weather and disruption at cyber attack struck rival Marks & Spencer. The womenswear and homewares chain posted a 10.5% rise in full-price sales for the second quarter to July 26, with growth of 10.9% for the half-year as a whole. In the UK, sales jumped by 7.8% in the second quarter as the group said it was boosted by 'better than expected weather and trading disruption at a major competitor'. M&S had to suspend online trading for nearly two months from mid-April after it was hit by a major hack. Next said the recent performance and forecasts for better-than-forecast second half trading means it now expects full-year sales to rise by 7.5% and for profits to increase by 9.3% to £1.11 billion. It had previously pencilled in sales growth of 6% and for profits to lift by 6.8%. The upgrade marks the group's third in just five months. But Next said it 'remains cautious for the second half', stressing that the improved outlook is for its international arm over the next six months. It said: 'In the UK, we believe we exceeded expectations in the second quarter as a result of better summer weather and trading disruption at a major competitor. 'We do not expect either of these factors to have a material effect in the second half, and so we are not increasing our guidance for UK sales in the second half.' It believes sales growth in the UK will slow sharply to 1.9% as the jobs market starts to falter following the Government's move to hike National Insurance contributions for employers, at the same time as rising the minimum wage. Next said: 'We expect UK employment opportunities to continue to diminish as we enter the second half, with the effects of April's National Insurance changes continuing to filter through into the economy as the year progresses. 'We believe that this will increasingly dampen consumer spending as the year progresses.' But an online marketing push for its international arm is bearing fruit, helping drive sales 28.1% higher in the first half and with growth of 19.4% now expected in the final six months. The results come after Next announced late on Wednesday that it had bought Seraphine – the maternity fashion firm, whose clothes were worn by the Princess of Wales during her pregnancies – after it recently collapsed into administration. Next paid £600,000 for the brand and announced it was bringing back Seraphine's founder Cecile Reinaud as an adviser to help relaunch the fashion label.
