PACIFIC VALLEY BANCORP SALINAS, Calif., Oct. 29, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Pacific Valley Bank (OTC Pink: PVBK) announced its unaudited third quarter 2020 Net Income of $979 thousand or $0.25 basic earnings per share. This represents an increase of 33% when comparing the prior quarter ($735 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2020) and a 25% increase compared to the same period of the prior year ($786 thousand at September 30, 2019). Net Income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, was $2.3 million representing an increase of 15% compared with the same period of 2019. Earnings per share for the first nine months of 2020 was $0.58 compared with $0.50 for the first nine months of 2019.
Anker Fanoe, President and CEO, commented, "We are once again pleased with our strong quarterly results which saw net income increase by 33% from $786 thousand in the third quarter of 2019 to $979 thousand in the same quarter of 2020. Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have worked closely with those customers requiring hardship relief, including loan forbearance, waived fees and other accommodations, when appropriate. We were very pleased to see loan balances with COVID-related modifications drop from $32.2 million at June 30, 2020, to $18.3 million which equates to 7% of non-PPP loans at September 30, 2020."
As of September 30, 2020, total assets were $420.2 million. Since June 30, 2020, total assets have decreased $4 million or 1%; however, total assets have increased by $84 million or 23% since September 30, 2019. The increase is primarily attributable to the PPP loans funded in the second quarter of 2020. Mr. Fanoe commented that "earnings over the past two quarters have been greatly supplemented by fee income generated by loans originated under the SBA's Paycheck Protection Program (PPP), and these earnings are likely to continue over the next several quarters as customers begin applying for loan forgiveness."
Mr. Fanoe noted that "In addition to fee income, the PPP program has led to new customer relationships and overall deposit balances have remained relatively stable over the past two quarters." As of September 30, 2020, total deposits were $380.3 million compared with total deposits of $385.5 million at June 30, 2020, representing a reduction of $5.2 million, or 1% during the third quarter of 2020; however, total deposits have increased by $77 million or 25% compared to a year ago.
Total gross loans outstanding, excluding PPP loans, were $261 million as of September 30, 2020. This exceeded gross loan balances at September 30, 2019, by $8 million representing an increase of 3% year-over-year. Non-PPP loans increased slightly in the third quarter when compared with the second quarter of 2020 by $86 thousand. The Bank's asset quality in 2020 was good with non-accruing assets accounting for less than 1% of the Bank's total assets at September 30, 2020, and no loans greater than 30 days past-due.
Shareholder Equity was $38.2 million at September 30, 2020, representing growth of $3.1 million over a year ago. This increase was the result of strong profitability. The Bank is considered to be well capitalized and its Capital Ratios well exceed regulatory minimums.
Net Interest Income, before the Provision for Loan Losses, was $3.6 million, $3.4 million and $3.1 million for the three months ending September 30, 2020, June 30, 2020, and September 30, 2019, respectively. Year-to-date Net Interest Income was $10.2 million, an increase of $1.1 million, or 12%, year-over-year. The Bank's cost of funds decreased when comparing the same period last year resulting in $679 thousand less in interest expense. The net interest margin in the third quarter of 2020 equated to 3.56% compared with 3.59% last quarter, and 3.78% for the third quarter of 2019. Market rates, primarily Federal Funds Sold and the Prime Rate, dropped 1.50% in March 2020 and remained stable over the past quarter. Management expects that the Bank's net interest margin will continue to be negatively impacted the remainder of the year as a result of the lower rate environment and lower yielding PPP loans.
For the three months ended September 30, 2020, Non-Interest Income was $218 thousand compared with June 30, 2020, at $179 thousand, and $150 thousand for the same period of 2019, representing increases of 22% and 45%, respectively. Non-Interest Income year-to-date of $554 thousand increased 29% compared with the same period of 2019.
Operating expenses were $2.4 million for the third quarter 2020, relatively the same compared with the second quarter of 2020; however, an increase of $308 thousand, or 14%, over the three months ended September 30, 2019. Non-Interest Expense year-to-date was $7.3 million representing an increase of $680 thousand, 10% higher compared with the first nine months 2019. Increases in operating expenses year-over-year were primarily in personnel costs associated with funding PPP loans.
