Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2018 Operating Results

The Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (Bank) today reported net income of $58.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2018. In comparison, for the quarters ended September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Bank reported net income of $50.1 million and $31.4 million, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Bank reported net income of $198.8 million, as compared to $150.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2017. Net interest income after provision for loan losses for the quarters ended December 31, 2018 and September 30, 2018 and the year ended December 31, 2018 was $85.4 million, $80.9 million and $310.5 million, respectively. In comparison, for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2017, net interest income after provision for loan losses was $60.7 million and $237.4 million, respectively.

The $48.5 million increase in net income for the year ended December 31, 2018, as compared to the year ended December 31, 2017, was attributable to an increase in the Bank's net interest income ($73.1 million) and a decrease in its non-interest expenses ($1.3 million), offset by a decrease in its non-interest income ($20.5 million) and an increase in its AHP assessment ($5.4 million). The increase in net interest income was due in part to a $7.1 billion increase in the Bank's average interest-earning assets. The decrease in non-interest income was primarily due to an unfavorable change in the aggregate net gains (losses) associated with the Bank's derivatives and hedging activities and its trading securities portfolio, as well as lower gains on the sales of investment securities.

Total assets at December 31, 2018 were $72.8 billion, compared with $73.7 billion at September 30, 2018 and $68.5 billion at December 31, 2017. The $0.9 billion decrease in total assets for the fourth quarter was attributable primarily to decreases in the Bank's advances ($1.4 billion) and short-term liquidity portfolio ($0.1 billion), offset by increases in the Bank's mortgage loans held for portfolio ($0.4 billion) and long-term investments ($0.2 billion). The $4.3 billion increase in total assets for the year ended December 31, 2018 was attributable primarily to increases in the Bank's advances ($4.3 billion), long-term investments ($1.0 billion) and mortgage loans held for portfolio ($1.3 billion), partially offset by a decrease in the Bank's short-term liquidity portfolio ($2.3 billion).

Advances totaled $40.8 billion at December 31, 2018, compared with $42.2 billion at September 30, 2018 and $36.5 billion at December 31, 2017. The Bank's mortgage loans held for portfolio totaled $2.2 billion at December 31, 2018, as compared to $1.8 billion at September 30, 2018 and $0.9 billion at December 31, 2017.

The Bank's long-term held-to-maturity securities portfolio, which is comprised substantially of U.S. agency residential mortgage-backed securities (MBS), totaled approximately $1.5 billion, $1.6 billion and $1.9 billion at December 31, 2018, September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively. The Bank's long-term available-for-sale securities portfolio, which is comprised substantially of U.S. agency debentures and U.S. agency commercial MBS, totaled $15.8 billion at December 31, 2018, as compared to $15.5 billion at September 30, 2018 and $14.4 billion at December 31, 2017. At December 31, 2018, September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, the Bank also held a $0.1 billion long-term U.S. Treasury Note classified as trading.

The Bank's short-term liquidity portfolio, which is comprised substantially of overnight interest-bearing deposits, overnight federal funds sold, overnight reverse repurchase agreements, U.S. Treasury Bills and U.S. Treasury Notes with short remaining terms to maturity, totaled $12.2 billion at December 31, 2018, compared to $12.3 billion at September 30, 2018 and $14.5 billion at December 31, 2017.

The Bank's retained earnings increased to $1.081 billion at December 31, 2018 from $1.042 billion at September 30, 2018 and $942 million at December 31, 2017. On December 27, 2018, a dividend of $18.4 million was paid to the Bank's shareholders.
