• Vol. 16 No. 4 Des M oines, Iowa M ay 11,1987 Sheshuno ff’s 1986 Report Shows: • Bank Earnings Declined 2.55%; S & L s D ropped 53.5% for u.s. banks in 1986 declined overall by 2.55 percent, the first bank industry an nual earnings decrease since 1961, according to Sheshunoff & Co., the Austin, Tex., based leading research and consulting firm for the financial industry. A t the same time, Sheshunoff re ported, the nation’s savings and loan associations, hit by major loan quality problem particularly in the southwestern states, reported a 53.5 percent drop in earnings nationwide for 1986. The nation’s 3,235 federal ly-insured s&ls reported a return on average assets (ROA) of 0.17 for the year, the worst since 1982 and down from the 1985 rate of 0.40. For commercial banks, total earn ings before extraordinary items for the year were $17.4 billion for all 14,123 federally-insured banks, com pared with $17.9 billion in 1985. Total assets of banks were $2.9 tril lion at 1986 year-end, a 7.75 percent increase over the 1985 year-end. For both banks and s&ls, Sheshu noff reported, the highest earning in stitutions generally were east of the Mississippi River, while all the low est earnings banks and s&ls were west of the Mississippi. This reflects the tremendous hits southwest banks have taken on both energy loans and ag loans. In the upper E a r n in g s https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis midwest states, the continuing fall out from bad ag loans deteriorated earnings at it did in 1985, although signs have emerged that indicate the bottom has been reached for the heavy ag producing states. A ll 10 states with the greatest percentage declines in income for banks were in the west, with Okla homa reporting the worst results, followed by Wyoming, Alaska, Texas and Louisiana. California showed the greatest increase—53.28 percent. Severed northeastern states re ported dramatic loan growth in 1986, ranging from 27.27 percent in crease to 33.85 percent. A lex Sheshunoff, president of the report ing firm, said, “ Our analysis of loan growth and loan quality trends has clearly shown that loan growth levels similar to those in New Eng land today are often followed by sig nificant increases in loan losses dur ing the next three to five years.” Non-performing loans as a per cent of total loans at banks rose by 10.3 percent in 1986 to $48.2 billion. Maine reported the lowest with 0.805 percent, while Alaska was the highest with 10.65, Wyoming was 8.25, Oklahoma was 7.23 and Louisi ana was 5.95. There were 145 bank failures in 1986, up from 118 in 1985. Among s&ls, of the 20 states with the highest ROA, 16 were east of the Mississippi, while 17 of the 20 poor est performers were in the west, in-eluding the 12 with the lowest rate. Nationwide earnings for s&ls came to $2 billion, compared with $4.3 bil lion in 1985. Mr. Sheshunoff said, ‘ Texas, where the total dollar figure for repossessed assets rose by $3.1 billion, or 185 percent, accounted for 62 percent of the national increase in repossessed assets,’ which totaled $13.5 billion for 1986, up 59 percent. Twenty savings and loans were closed in 1986, up from 10 for all of 1985 and nine in 1984. The number of FSLIC-assisted mergers and acquisitions increased to 34 for 1986, up from 22 for 1985 and 17 for 1984. And FSLIC management con signments totaled 46 last year, up from 25 in 1985. With increased gov ernmental funding, Mr. Sheshunoff said, a significant increase in the number of savings and loans closed by the FSLIC can be anticipated for 1987. □ Iowa News Donald E.
