Republic First Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ: FRBK), the holding company
for Republic Bank, today announced its financial results for the
period ended December 31, 2020.
Q4-2020
Financial Highlights
- Net income was $4.1 million, or
$0.05 per share, during the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to a
net loss of $2.5 million, or ($0.04) per share, during the fourth
quarter of 2019. This represents an increase of 265% when comparing
the two quarters. Core earnings improved for the fourth consecutive
quarter as positive momentum continues to build.
- Net income for the year ended
December 31, 2020 was $5.1 million, or $0.07 per share, compared to
a net loss of $3.5 million, or $(0.06) per share, for the year
ended December 31, 2019 representing improvement of 244% year over
year.
- Results for the twelve month period
ended December 31, 2020 were impacted by a one-time goodwill
impairment charge of $5.0 million. Excluding this charge, core
earnings before tax were $11.5 million during the year ended
December 31, 2020 compared to a net loss before tax of $4.9 million
during the year ended December 31, 2019.
- The improvement in earnings was
driven by the Company’s focus on cost control initiatives while
driving revenue growth. During the fourth quarter of 2020 total
revenue increased 48% and non-interest expense increased 10%
compared to the fourth quarter of 2019. During the twelve month
period ended December 31, 2020 total revenue increased 26% and
non-interest expense, excluding goodwill impairment, increased by
8% compared to the twelve month period ended December 31,
2019.
- Total deposits increased by $1.0
billion, or 34%, to $4.0 billion as of December 31, 2020 compared
to $3.0 billion as of December 31, 2019.
- Total loans grew $897 million, or
51%, to $2.6 billion as of December 31, 2020 compared to $1.7
billion at December 31, 2019. This growth includes more that $600
million in PPP loans. Excluding the impact of the PPP loan program
loans grew $273 million, or 16%, year over year.
- Asset quality remains strong as the
ratio of non-performing assets to total assets declined to 0.28% as
of December 31, 2020. Only twenty-one loan customers were deferring
loan payments at the end of the year. These deferrals relate to
approximately $16 million of outstanding loan balances which is
less than 1% of total loans.
Vernon W. Hill, II, Chairman of Republic
First Bancorp said:
“The fourth quarter of 2020 marks the end of a
year filled with unprecedented challenges and economic uncertainty.
During this time the Republic Bank Team maintained its commitment
to outstanding customer service and satisfaction while driving
positive momentum. We are extremely proud of our performance and
participation in the PPP loan program which provided crucial
funding to businesses throughout our footprint during a time of
extreme economic distress. In recognition of our commitment to
FANatical customer service we were named
America’s #1 Bank for Service as a result of a
survey conducted by Forbes during 2020. As we put an incredibly
challenging year behind us we look forward to growing our rapidly
expanding network of FANS in the future. We clearly believe the
best is yet to come.”
Harry D. Madonna, President and Chief
Executive Officer of Republic First Bancorp added:
“During 2020 we continued to demonstrate our
ability to produce strong organic growth in asset, loan and deposit
balances even in a challenging economic environment inhibited by
governmental restrictions and the ongoing effects of the COVID-19
pandemic. We were also able to drive significant improvement in
earnings despite the challenges faced in the current year. Our
focus on cost control measures continues to drive positive
operating leverage. We have consistently stated that it is our goal
to deliver best in class service across all delivery
channels…..in-store, by phone, online and mobile options....as we
strive to create new FANS each and every day. We are focused on
meeting that goal in the most efficient manner possible.”
Financial Summary for the Period Ended December 31,
2020
The changes in the balance sheet as of December
31, 2020 were significantly impacted by the effect of the PPP loan
program. A portion of the increase in cash balances, outstanding
loans, and outside borrowings will be short-term in nature and will
change as the borrowers that received PPP loans submit applications
for forgiveness to the SBA in the coming months. A summary of the
balance sheet presented with and without the impact of the PPP loan
program for the period ended December 31, 2020 can be found in the
following table:

release.
- Core earnings improved for the
fourth consecutive quarter as positive momentum continues to build.
Excluding the impact of goodwill impairment, profitability improved
quarter to quarter as core earnings before tax increased to $5.7
million in the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to $3.5 million in
the third quarter of 2020 and a net loss before tax of $3.5 million
in the fourth quarter of 2019.
- Profitability also improved year
over year. Excluding the impact of goodwill impairment, core
earnings before tax for the twelve month period ended December 31,
2020 were $11.5 million compared to a net loss before tax of $4.9
million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019. This
represents an increase of $16.3 million, or 336%, year over
year.
- The goodwill impairment charged
recorded during 2020 represents a complete write-off of all
goodwill on the balance sheet at the present time.
PPP Loan Program
The Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) included
in the CARES Act authorized financial institutions to make loans to
companies that have been impacted by the devastating economic
effects of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. We responded by
quickly developing a process to accept applications for the program
not only from our valued small business customers, but from
non-customers throughout our community as well.
- During 2020 we originated more than
$680 million in the first round of the PPP loan program related to
nearly 5,000 small businesses.
- More than 50% of the applications
received were from businesses that were not existing customers of
Republic Bank, many of which have switched their primary banking
relationship to Republic.
- Gross origination fees of $22
million were received by Republic which is being recognized as
income over the life of the loans. Approximately $13 million in
fees have been deferred and are expected to be recognized during
2021.
- As a percentage of existing loan
balances as of March 31, 2020, the $680 million in PPP loans
originated amounted to 36% making Republic one of the top PPP
lenders in the entire country.
- We are now assisting all of our PPP
loan customers with the application process for forgiveness through
the SBA.
The Economic Aid Act approved by Congress in
December 2020 provided funding for a second round of the PPP
program. We are actively preparing to assist not only our existing
business customers with the application process for this next
round, but will again welcome non-customers to apply through
Republic Bank as well. We began processing applications for the
second round in January 2021.
Loss Mitigation and Loan Portfolio
Analysis
Our emphasis on asset quality with every loan
that we underwrite has demonstrated positive results in this
challenging economic environment. Our commercial lending team has
maintained regular contact with many of our loan customers to
discuss the impact that the pandemic has had on their businesses to
date and the expected ramifications that may be felt in the future.
During 2020 we granted payment deferrals for customers that made a
request and had an immediate need for assistance.
Management believes exposure in the loan
portfolio to the high risk industries most impacted by the current
economic conditions is limited. Loans to customers in the
accommodations and food services industry (i.e. hotels and
restaurants) amount to 7% of the total loans outstanding as of
December 31, 2020.
We believe the combination of ongoing
communication with our customers, loan payment deferrals, increased
focus on risk management practices, and access to government
programs such as the PPP Loan Program should help mitigate
potential future period losses.
The following table summarizes the number of
loan customers that have been granted payment deferrals along with
the related loan outstanding balances through the period ended
December 31, 2020:

*Note: PPP loans excluded from total loans when

Loan balances with deferred payments have
declined to $16 million, which is less than 1% of total loans, as
of December 31, 2020. Loan deferrals peaked at $444 million, or 24%
of total loans as of May 31, 2020. Only twenty-one loan customers
were deferring loan payments as of December 31, 2020.
Total Banking Experience
- The goal of the Republic Bank model
is to deliver a unified customer experience not only through our
physical store locations, but to include convenient on-line and
mobile options as well.
- As a result of our commitment to
FANatical service across all delivery channels
Republic Bank was named as America’s # 1 Bank for
Service in a national Forbes survey during 2020. This
survey measured overall customer satisfaction with their financial
institution in the following categories: branch services, digital
services, financial advice, trust and terms/conditions.
- We have thirty-one convenient store
locations open today. In 2020 we opened new stores in Northfield,
NJ and Bensalem, PA. We have also broken ground on future store
locations in Deptford and Ocean City, NJ which we expect to open
during 2021.
- As we proceed forward we will
continue to enhance and upgrade our technology platforms to ensure
that we deliver the best-in-class resources to our
FANS for a safe, secure and convenient banking
experience.
Additional Financial
Highlights
- Total assets increased by $1.7
billion, or 52%, to $5.1 billion as of December 31, 2020 compared
to $3.3 billion as of December 31, 2019. Excluding the impact of
the PPP loan program total assets increased by $1.1 billion, or
33%, year over year.
- New stores opened since the
beginning of the “Power of Red is Back” expansion campaign are
currently growing deposits at an average rate of $38 million per
year, while the average deposit growth for all stores over the last
twelve months was approximately $33 million per store.
- The net interest margin increased
by 8 basis points to 2.43% for the three months ended December 31,
2020 compared to 2.35% for the three months ended September 30,
2020. This increase was primarily driven by a decline in the cost
funds to 0.54% during the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to 0.59%
during the third quarter of 2020.
- Our residential mortgage division,
Oak Mortgage, is serving the home financing needs of customers
throughout its footprint. Loan production during 2020 was strong
despite the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Oak Mortgage team
originated more than $700 million in mortgage loans over the last
twelve months which was a record high for this division.
- A $50 million capital raise was
completed during the third quarter of 2020 through a registered
direct offering of convertible preferred stock providing the
capital resources necessary to continue with our growth and
expansion strategy.
- Total Risk-Based Capital ratio was
13.50% and Tier I Leverage Ratio was 8.17% at December 31,
2020.
- Book value per common share

Net income was $4.1 million, or $0.05 per
diluted share, for the three month period ended December 31, 2020,
compared to a net loss of $1.0 million, or $(0.02) per share, for
the three month period ended September 30, 2020 and a net loss of
$2.5 million, or $(0.04) per share, for the three month period
ended December 31, 2019.
We continue to demonstrate progress with
operating leverage which drives improved earnings. Total revenue
increased by 48% while non-interest expense increased by 10%,
during the fourth quarter of 2020 compared to the fourth quarter of
2019.
Interest income increased by $4.4 million, or
16%, to $31.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020
compared to $26.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019.
The increase in interest income is attributable to the growth in
interest-earning assets over the last twelve months driven by the
“Power of Red is Back” expansion strategy. We also continue to
amortize the fees associated with the origination of PPP loans
earlier this year which is reported as interest income. $3.0
million in PPP fees were recorded as income during the quarter
ended December 31, 2020 with the remaining balance to be recognized
over the life of the loans.
Interest expense decreased by $1.5 million, or
21%, to $5.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020
compared to $7.0 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2019.
The decrease in interest expense was primarily driven by a
reduction in the cost of deposits as a result of the decrease in
the Fed Funds rate during the first quarter of 2020.
The net interest margin for the three month
period ended December 31, 2020 decreased by 24 basis points to
2.43% compared to 2.67% for the three month period ended December
31, 2019. The interest rate on the loans originated under the PPP
loan program is 1.00% which caused a decline in the yield on
interest earning assets in the fourth quarter of 2020. In addition,
the rate cuts enacted by the Federal Reserve Bank during the first
quarter of 2020 has created a lower interest rate environment.
Non-interest income increased by $6.4 million,
or 122%, to $11.6 million for the three month period ended December
31, 2020, compared to $5.2 million for the three month period ended
December 31, 2019. The increase is attributable to higher mortgage
banking income driven by mortgage loan originations, and higher
service fees on deposit accounts which is driven by growth in
deposit balances and an increase in the number of deposit accounts
in addition to the impact of the new branding and processing
agreements with VISA.
Non-interest expense increased by 10%, to $30.2
million during the quarter ended December 31, 2020, compared to
$27.5 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2019. The
growth in expenses were mainly caused by an increase in salaries
and benefit costs. This increase is mostly attributable to higher
commissions paid as a result of an increase in residential mortgage
loan originations. Occupancy and equipment expenses have also grown
as a result of our growth strategy.

We reported net income of $5.1 million, or $0.07
per share, for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2020,
compared to a net loss of $3.5 million, or $(0.06) per share for
the twelve month period ended December 31, 2019.
Core earnings improved significantly year over
year. Pre-tax income excluding the goodwill impairment charge was
$11.5 million during the twelve month period ended December 31,
2020 compared to a net loss of $4.9 million for the twelve month
period ended December 31, 2019. The improvement in earnings comes
as we continue to demonstrate progress with operating leverage.
Total revenue increased by 26% while non-interest expense increased
by 8%, excluding goodwill impairment, during the twelve month
period ended December 31, 2020 compared to the twelve month period
ended December 31, 2019.
The goodwill impairment charge of $5.0 million
recorded in 2020 represents a one-time, non-cash accounting
transaction which had no impact on liquidity and minimally
increased regulatory capital ratios. A prolonged decline in the
Company’s stock price, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and
related economic impact led to recognition of the impairment
pursuant to management’s completion of a goodwill impairment
analysis as of September 30, 2020. This was a complete write-off of
all goodwill on the balance sheet.
Net interest income increased by $14.0 million,
or 18%, despite compression of our net interest margin during 2020.
The net interest margin for the twelve month period ended December
31, 2020 decreased by 34 basis points to 2.51% compared to 2.85%
for the twelve month period ended December 31, 2019. Strong growth
in interest-earning assets drove the increase in net interest
income. Revenue growth in 2020 was also a result of higher mortgage
banking income which increased to $17.9 million in 2020 compared to
$10.1 million in 2019. Oak Mortgage, the Bank’s residential
mortgage lending division, originated more that $700 million in
mortgage loans during 2020.
The first dividend on the outstanding shares of
preferred stock was declared and paid during the fourth quarter of
2020. The preferred stock was issued in August 2020 and pays a
dividend at an annual rate of 7.00%.

Deposits increased to $4.0 billion at December
31, 2020 compared to $3.0 billion at December 30, 2019. This
increase can be attributed to our strategy to expand the reach of
our banking model which focuses on enhancing the total customer
experience including in-store, on-line and mobile banking options.
High levels of customer service and convenience across all delivery
channels drives the gathering of low-cost, core deposits. We
recognized strong growth in demand deposit balances, including an
increase in non-interest bearing demand deposits of 52%, year over
year as a result of the successful execution of our strategy. The
increase in demand deposits during 2020 is also a result of our
participation in the PPP loan program. Many of the PPP loans
originated were for small businesses that were previously not
customers of Republic Bank. Many of these small businesses have
chosen to move their primary banking relationship to Republic as a
result of the outstanding level of service and cooperation they
experienced during the PPP loan process. Commercial deposits were
45% of total deposits as of December 31, 2020.

Gross loans increased by $897 million, or 51%,
to $2.6 billion at December 31, 2020 compared to $1.7 billion at
December 31, 2019. A significant portion of the increase was driven
by the loans originated through the PPP loan program during the
second quarter of 2020. In addition, we continue to see results
from the continued success with the relationship banking model
which has driven a steady flow in quality loan demand. Excluding
the addition of the PPP loans in 2020, loans still grew $273
million, or 16%, when compared to the balance as of December 31,
2019. We experienced strongest growth in the owner occupied real
estate, commercial real estate and residential mortgage categories
during 2020.

ratio of non-performing assets to capital and reserves decreased to
4% at December 31, 2020 compared to 5% at December 31, 2019

Total shareholders’ equity increased to $308
million at December 31, 2020 compared to $249 million at December
31, 2019. The increase was primarily driven by a capital raise
during the third quarter of 2020. We issued $50 million of
noncumulative perpetual preferred stock in August 2020. The
preferred stock has an annual dividend of 7.00% payable on a
quarterly basis and is convertible into shares of common stock at a
price of $3.00 per share. Book value per common share increased to
$4.41 at December 31, 2020 compared to $4.23 per share at December
31, 2019.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to evaluating the Company’s
financial results of operations in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”), management
periodically supplements its evaluation with an analysis of certain
non-GAAP financial measures that are intended to provide the reader
with additional perspectives on operating results, financial
conditions, and performance trends, while facilitating comparisons
with the performance of other financial institutions. Non-GAAP
financial measures are not a substitute for GAAP measures, rather,
they should be read and used in conjunction with the Company’s GAAP
financial information.
The Company believes that disclosing non-GAAP
financial measures is both useful internally and is expected by our
investors and analysts in order to better understand the overall
performance of the Company. Other companies may calculate and
define their non-GAAP financial measures and supplemental data
differently. A reconciliation of GAAP financial measures to
non-GAAP measures and other performance ratios, as adjusted, are
included in a table following the financial schedules included with
this press release.
