David Becker, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented:
“The fourth quarter’s results showcase our efforts over the past 18
months to reposition our balance sheet. With asset yields
continuing to reprice higher, coupled with solid loan growth, we
delivered welcome net interest margin expansion and net interest
income growth. We produced positive operating leverage and a
significant improvement in our operating efficiency. In all, we
believe this quarter’s results represent an important inflection
point for our company.
“We continued to optimize our loan portfolio mix in the fourth
quarter, with solid production in construction and franchise
finance lending. Additionally, we remain one of the ten most active
SBA 7(a) lenders in the country. Our SBA lending team finished the
year with impressive origination volumes and generated another
record quarter of gain on sale revenue.
"With or without anticipated rate cuts, we are well-positioned
to continue to improve our earnings and profitability in 2024. Now
less than one month away from the 25th anniversary of our public
launch, we are in an enviable position to start our second quarter
century: with a strong balance sheet and capital levels,
outstanding asset quality, and a team that is focused on the
continued execution of our strategies.”
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $19.8
million, compared to $17.4 million for the third quarter of 2023,
and $21.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. On a
fully-taxable equivalent basis, net interest income for the fourth
quarter of 2023 was $21.0 million, compared to $18.6 million for
the third quarter of 2023, and $23.1 million for the fourth quarter
of 2022.
Total interest income for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $66.3
million, an increase of 5.2% compared to the third quarter of 2023,
and an increase of 45.1% compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. On
a fully-taxable equivalent basis, total interest income for the
fourth quarter of 2023 was $67.5 million, an increase of 5.0%
compared to the third quarter of 2023, and an increase of 43.5%
compared to the fourth quarter of 2022. The yield on average
interest-earning assets for the fourth quarter of 2023 increased to
5.28% from 5.02% for the third quarter of 2023 due to a 26 basis
point (“bp”) increase in the yield earned on loans, a 40 bp
increase in the yield earned on securities and a 27 bp increase in
the yield earned on other earning assets. Compared to the linked
quarter, average loan balances increased $98.9 million, or 2.7%,
and the average balance of securities increased $61.2 million, or
9.8%, while the average balance of other earning assets decreased
$152.6 million, or 23.4%.
Interest income earned on commercial loans was higher due to
increased average balances and the positive impact of higher rates
in the variable rate small business, construction and commercial
and industrial lending portfolios, as well as growth in the
higher-yielding franchise finance portfolio. This was partially
offset by lower average balances in the public finance, healthcare
finance and single tenant lease financing portfolios. The continued
shift in the loan mix is the result of a strategic initiative to
focus on variable rate and higher-yielding products, in part to
help improve the interest rate risk profile of our balance
sheet.
In the consumer loan portfolio, interest income was up due to
higher yields on new originations and growth in the average
balances of trailers, recreational vehicles and other consumer
loans portfolios.
The yield on funded portfolio loan originations was 8.85% in the
fourth quarter of 2023, relatively stable with the third quarter of
2023, and an increase of 278 bps compared to the fourth quarter of
2022. For the full year of 2023, new loan origination yields
increased 302 bps compared to 2022. Because of the fixed-rate
nature of certain larger portfolios, there is a lagging impact of
the higher origination yields on the portfolio.
Interest income earned on securities in the fourth quarter of
2023 increased $1.2 million, or 22.9%, compared to the third
quarter of 2023 due to an increase in the yield earned on the
portfolio and the increase in average balances. The yield on the
securities portfolio increased 40 bps to 3.72%, driven primarily by
variable rate securities repricing higher and higher yields on new
purchases. Interest earned on other earning asset balances
decreased $1.7 million, or 19.4%, in the fourth quarter of 2023
compared to the linked quarter, due primarily to lower average cash
balances.
Total interest expense for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $46.5
million, an increase of $0.8 million, or 1.8%, compared to the
linked quarter, due to modest increases in both deposit rates and
average interest-bearing deposit balances throughout the quarter.
Interest expense related to interest-bearing deposits increased
$0.7 million, or 1.8%, driven primarily by higher costs on CDs,
BaaS-brokered deposits and money market accounts. The cost of
interest-bearing deposits was 4.14% for the fourth quarter of 2023,
compared to 4.09% for the third quarter of 2023. The increase of 5
bps in deposit costs during the fourth quarter was the slowest
experienced by the Company in the past six quarters.
Average CD balances increased $59.2 million, or 3.8%, from the
third quarter of 2023 while the cost of funds increased 18 bps. The
increase in the cost of CDs is also the lowest in the past six
quarters, reflecting the narrowing repricing gap between new
production and maturities. The average balance of BaaS – brokered
deposits increased $30.2 million, or 94.7%, due to higher payments
volume while the cost of funds increased 5 bps.
These increases were partially offset by lower average brokered
deposit balances, which decreased $51.7 million, or 7.7%, from the
third quarter of 2023, as the Company continued to reduce the
balance of higher cost funding throughout the quarter.
Additionally, the average balance of interest-bearing demand
deposits decreased $5.1 million, or 1.3%, while the cost of funds
decreased 47 bps.
Net interest margin (“NIM”) was 1.58% for the fourth quarter of
2023, up from 1.39% for the third quarter of 2023 and down from
2.09% for the fourth quarter of 2022. Fully-taxable equivalent NIM
(“FTE NIM”) was 1.68% for the fourth quarter of 2023, up from 1.49%
for the third quarter of 2023 and down from 2.22% for the fourth
quarter of 2022. The increases in NIM and FTE NIM compared to the
linked quarter were driven primarily by higher yields on loans,
securities and other earning assets, as well as higher average loan
and securities balances, partially offset by higher
interest-bearing deposit costs and lower cash balances.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2023 was $7.4
million, consistent with the third quarter of 2023, and up $1.6
million, or 27.4%, from the fourth quarter of 2022. Gain on sale of
loans totaled $6.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, up $0.5
million, or 8.2%, from the linked quarter. Gain on sale revenue in
the quarter, which consisted entirely of sales of U.S. Small
Business Administration (“SBA”) 7(a) guaranteed loans, increased
due to a higher volume of loan sales and a slight improvement in
net premiums. Net loan servicing revenue decreased $0.5 million, or
57.7%, during the quarter as growth in the servicing portfolio was
more than offset by a lower fair value adjustment to the loan
servicing asset.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense totaled $20.1 million for the fourth quarter
of 2023, compared to $19.8 million for the third quarter of 2023,
and $18.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, representing
increases of 1.5% and 8.3%, respectively. The increase of $0.3
million compared to the linked quarter was due primarily to higher
premises and equipment, consulting and professional fees and
deposit insurance premium, partially offset by lower salaries and
employee benefits and data processing.
The increase in premises and equipment was due primarily to a
lower property tax accrual in the prior quarter. Consulting and
professional fees increased due mainly to third-party loan review
and stress testing activities. Deposit insurance premium increased
due to higher assessments driven by year-over-year asset growth and
loan composition. Salaries and employee benefits declined due
primarily to lower incentive compensation and lower benefits costs.
Data processing declined due to lower variable deposit
activity-based expenses and transaction processing fees.
Income Taxes
The Company recognized an income tax benefit of $0.6 million for
the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to an income tax benefit of
$0.3 million for the third quarter of 2023, and an income tax
expense of $0.5 million and an effective tax rate of 7.3% for the
fourth quarter of 2022. The income tax benefit for the fourth
quarter of 2023 reflects the benefit of tax-exempt income relative
to the amount of stated pre-tax income as well as adjustments to
certain state income tax rates.
Loans and Credit Quality
Total loans as of December 31, 2023 were $3.8 billion, an
increase of $105.2 million, or 2.8%, compared to September 30,
2023, and an increase of $340.8 million, or 9.7%, compared to
December 31, 2022. Total commercial loan balances were $3.0 billion
as of December 31, 2023, an increase of $97.7 million, or 3.4%,
compared to September 30, 2023, and an increase of $286.6 million,
or 10.5%, compared to December 31, 2022. Compared to the linked
quarter, the increase in commercial loan balances was driven
primarily by strategic growth in higher yielding franchise finance,
small business lending, commercial and industrial and construction
balances. These items were partially offset by decreases in the
fixed-rate public finance and healthcare finance portfolios.
Total consumer loan balances were $796.9 million as of December
31, 2023, an increase of $10.4 million, or 1.3%, compared to
September 30, 2023, and an increase of $63.7 million, or 8.7%,
compared to December 31, 2022. The increase compared to the linked
quarter was due primarily to higher balances in the trailers,
recreational vehicles and residential mortgage portfolios.
Total delinquencies 30 days or more past due were 0.31% of total
loans as of December 31, 2023, compared to 0.22% at September 30,
2023 and 0.17% as of December 31, 2022. The increase in
delinquencies during the fourth quarter of 2023 was due primarily
to an increase in delinquencies in the small business lending and
franchise finance portfolios. Nonperforming loans were 0.26% of
total loans as of December 31, 2023, compared to 0.16% as of
September 30, 2023, and 0.22% as of December 31, 2022.
Nonperforming loans totaled $10.0 million at December 31, 2023, up
from $5.9 million at September 30, 2023. The increase in
nonperforming loans was due primarily to the addition of small
business lending and franchise finance loans for which specific
reserves were established, as well as certain residential mortgage
loans that were more than 90 days delinquent.
The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) as a percentage of total
loans was 1.01% as of December 31, 2023, compared to 0.98% as of
September 30, 2023, and 0.91% as of December 31, 2022. The increase
in the ACL reflects the addition of specific reserves mentioned
above, as well as the overall growth in the loan portfolio,
partially offset by the positive impact of economic data on
forecasted loss rates and qualitative factors on certain
portfolios.
Net charge-offs of $1.2 million were recognized during the
fourth quarter of 2023, resulting in net charge-offs to average
loans of 0.12%, compared to $1.5 million, or 0.16%, for the third
quarter of 2023 and $0.2 million, or 0.03%, for the fourth quarter
of 2022. Net charge-offs in the fourth quarter of 2023 were driven
primarily by small business lending, as well as one healthcare
finance loan that was charged-off during the quarter.
The provision for credit losses in the fourth quarter of 2023
was $3.6 million, compared to $1.9 million for the third quarter of
2023 and $2.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. The provision
for the fourth quarter of 2023 was driven primarily by net
charge-offs, specific reserves and growth in certain loan
portfolios and unfunded commitments, partially offset by the
positive impact of economic forecasts on certain portfolios.
Capital
As of December 31, 2023, total shareholders’ equity was $362.8
million, an increase of $15.1 million, or 4.3%, compared to
September 30, 2023, and a decrease of $2.2 million, or 0.6%,
compared to December 31, 2022. The increase in shareholders’ equity
during the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to the linked quarter
was due primarily to the net income earned during the quarter and a
decrease in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Book value per
common share increased to $41.97 as of December 31, 2023, up from
$40.11 as of September 30, 2023 and $40.26 as of December 31, 2022.
Tangible book value per share was $41.43, up from $39.57 as of
September 30, 2023 and $39.74 as of December 31, 2022.
In connection with its previously announced stock repurchase
program, the Company repurchased 40,000 shares of its common stock
during the fourth quarter of 2023 at an average price of $18.78 per
share. The Company has repurchased $41.5 million of stock under its
authorized programs since November of 2021.
