First Quarter 2023 and Current Highlights
Income Statement
- Net income of
$11.78 million for the quarter was an approximate 24% increase, or$2.27 million , compared to$9.52 million recorded in the same quarter of 2022. The increase is primarily attributable to an increase in net interest income of$4.26 million . The increase in net interest income was offset by an increase in noninterest expense of$827 thousand and a decrease in noninterest income of$611 thousand . - Annualized return on average assets was 1.55% for the first quarter of 2023 and 1.20% for the same quarter of 2022. Annualized return on average common equity was 11.15% for the first quarter of 2023 and 8.98% for the same quarter of 2022.
- Net interest margin for the first quarter was 4.35%, which was an 80 basis point increase from 3.55% reported for the same quarter of 2022. The yield on earning assets increased 85 basis points, primarily driven by increased earnings on loans and securities.
- The cost of interest-bearing deposits increased 6 basis points to 0.16%, primarily driven by an increase in the interest expense associated with savings and money market deposit accounts.
- Interest and fees on loans increased
$2.99 million from the same quarter of 2022 and is attributable to both an increase in yield and an increase in average balance compared to the yield and average balance of the prior year. Interest income from securities of$2.10 million was an increase of$1.35 million over the first quarter of 2022 primarily attributable to an increase in the portfolio. Interest income on deposits in banks also increased$214 thousand to$462 thousand for the first quarter primarily due to a significant increase in overnight rates as compared to the first quarter of 2022. - The net provision for credit losses of
$1.74 million for the quarter was a decrease of$219 thousand compared to$1.96 million recorded in the same quarter of 2022. This quarter’s provision was a function of a$1.97 million provision for credit losses and a reduction in the allowance for unfunded commitments of$232 thousand .
Balance Sheet and Asset Quality
- The Company’s loan portfolio decreased by
$11.3 million , or 0.47%, from year-end 2022, with the largest decreases in the consumer non-real estate loan type. - The Company did not repurchase any common shares during the first quarter of 2023. Share repurchases had been stopped in anticipation of the now completed acquisition of Surrey Bancorp.
- Non-performing loans to total loans remained low at 0.65% of total loans and continues the declining trend experienced over the past four quarters. The Company experienced net charge-offs for the first quarter of 2023 of
$1.74 million , or 0.29% of annualized average loans, compared to net charge-offs of$838 thousand , or 0.15% of annualized average loans, for the same period in 2022. - The allowance for credit losses to total loans was 1.29% at
March 31, 2023 . - Book value per share at
