Plumas Bancorp (Nasdaq: PLBC), the parent company of Plumas Bank,
today announced first quarter earnings of $6.3 million or $1.06 per
share, down from $7.6 million or $1.30 per share during the first
quarter of 2023. Diluted earnings per share was $1.05 during the
three months ended March 31, 2024, down from $1.28 per share during
the quarter ended March 31, 2023. Return on average assets was
1.55% during the current quarter, down from 1.93% during the first
quarter of 2023. Return on average equity was 16.4% for the three
months ended March 31, 2024, down from 25.0% during the first
quarter of 2023.
The 2023 quarter included a one-time gain of
$1.7 million on termination of interest rate swaps. Excluding this
gain, non-GAAP income for the first quarter of 2023 would have been
$6.4 million, resulting in diluted earnings per share of $1.08 and
return on average assets of 1.63%.

President’s CommentsAndrew J.
Ryback, director, president, and chief executive officer of Plumas
Bancorp and Plumas Bank, commented on the first quarter of 2024,
stating, “We are excited to announce the successful completion of
the branch sale-leaseback transaction with MountainSeed Real Estate
Services (MountainSeed), valued at approximately $25.7 million.
This transaction underscores our commitment to optimizing our
capital structure while reaffirming our dedication to serving our
communities for the long term. The gains generated from this
transaction were instrumental in offsetting losses in our
investment portfolio, enhancing our earnings profile and increasing
our book value per share.
Quarter-over-quarter results reflect the
termination of interest rate swaps resulting in a one-time gain in
the first quarter of 2023. Non-performing loans are
well-collateralized, and we expect resolution on significant
amounts in the coming quarter.
As the Federal Reserve announced its intention
to implement up to three rate cuts this year, we remain vigilant
and adaptable in navigating potential challenges and opportunities
in the market. Plumas Bank is well-positioned to leverage its
strong capital position and diversified portfolios to sustain
growth and maximize returns for our stakeholders.”
Sales/Leaseback and Investment
Restructuring
On January 19, 2024, Plumas Bank entered into
two agreements for the purchase and sale of real property (the
“Sale Agreements”). One Sale Agreement provided for the sale to
MountainSeed of nine properties owned and operated by the Plumas
Bank as branches (the “Branches”) for an aggregate cash purchase
price of approximately $25.7 million. The branch portion of the
sale was completed on February 14, 2024 resulting in a net gain on
sale of $19.9 million. The second Sale Agreement provides for the
sale to MountainSeed of up to three properties operated as
non-branch administrative offices (the “Non-Branch Offices”) for an
aggregate cash purchase price of $7.9 million, assuming all of the
Non-Branch Offices are sold. The closing date on the Non-Branch
Offices has been extended to September 16, 2024.
Under the Sale Agreements, the parties have
agreed, concurrently with the closing of the sale of the
Properties, to enter into triple net lease agreements (the “Lease
Agreements”) pursuant to which Plumas Bank will lease each of the
Properties sold. Each Lease Agreement will have an initial term of
fifteen years with one 15-year renewal option. The Lease Agreements
will provide for an annual rent of approximately $3.1 million in
the aggregate for all Properties of which $2.4 million relates to
the completed branch sale, increased by two percent (2%) per annum
for each year during the initial fifteen year term. During the
renewal term, the initial rent will be the basic rent during the
last year of the initial term, increased by two percent (2%) per
annum for each year during the renewal term.
The gain on sales of the branches was offset by
losses on the sale of approximately $115 million in investment
securities. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we sold
$115 million in investment securities having a weighted average tax
equivalent yield of 2.24%, recording a $19.8 million loss on
the sales. Beginning in December 2023 and ending on March 27, 2024
we purchased $120 million in investments securities having a
weighted average tax equivalent yield of 5.25%.
Loans, Deposits, Investments and
Cash
Gross loans increased by $60 million, or 7%,
from $916 million at March 31, 2023, to $976 million at March 31,
2024. Increases in loans included $41 million in commercial real
estate loans, $22 million in construction loans, $5 million in
commercial loans, $5 million in agricultural loans and $1 million
in equity lines of credit; these items were partially offset by a
decrease of $11 million in automobile loans and $3 million in
residential real estate loans.
On March 31, 2024, approximately 76% of the
Company's loan portfolio was comprised of variable rate loans. The
rates of interest charged on variable rate loans are set at
specific increments in relation to the Company's lending rate or
other indexes such as the published prime interest rate or U.S.
Treasury rates and vary with changes in these indexes. The
frequency at which variable rate loans reprice can vary from one
day to several years. Most of our commercial real estate portfolio
reprices every five years. Loans indexed to the prime interest rate
were approximately 19% of the Company’s loan portfolio; these loans
reprice within one day to three months of a change in the prime
rate.
Total deposits decreased by $107 million to $1.3
billion at March 31, 2024. The decrease in deposits includes
decreases of $76 million in demand deposits, $7 million in money
market accounts, and $66 million in savings deposits. Time deposits
increased by $42 million. We attribute much of the decrease to the
current interest rate environment as we have seen some deposits
leave for higher rates and some customers reluctant to borrow to
fund operating expenses and instead have drawn down their excess
deposit balances. Beginning in April 2023, we began offering a time
deposit promotion offering 7-month and 11-month time deposits at an
interest rate of 4%. Effective June 30, 2023, we discontinued this
promotion which generated $46 million in deposits. However,
beginning in the fourth quarter of 2023 we allowed those customers
who had promotional time deposits to renew those deposits at
similar terms. At March 31, 2024, 51% of the Company’s deposits
were in the form of non-interest-bearing demand deposits. The
Company has no brokered deposits.
Total investment securities decreased by $37
million from $484 million at March 31, 2023, to $447 million at
March 31, 2024. The Bank’s investment security portfolio consists
of debt securities issued by US Government agencies, US Government
sponsored agencies and municipalities. Cash and due from banks
increased by $22 million from $106 million at March 31, 2023, to
$128 million at March 31, 2024.
Asset Quality
Nonperforming assets (which are comprised of
nonperforming loans, other real estate owned (“OREO”) and
repossessed vehicle holdings) at March 31, 2024 were $6.0 million,
up from $4.2 million at March 31, 2023. Nonperforming assets as a
percentage of total assets increased to 0.37% at March 31, 2024 up
from 0.26% at March 31, 2023. OREO increased by $274,000 from
$83,000 at March 31, 2023 to $357,000 at March 31, 2024.
Nonperforming loans were $5.6 million at March 31, 2024 and $4.0
million at March 31, 2023. Nonperforming loans as a percentage of
total loans increased to 0.57% at March 31, 2024, up from 0.43% at
March 31, 2023.
During the first quarter of 2024 we recorded a
provision for credit losses of $821,000 consisting of a provision
for credit losses on loans of $900,000 and a decrease in the
reserve for unfunded commitments of $79,000. This compares to a
provision for credit losses of $1,525,000 consisting of a provision
for credit losses on loans of $1,250,000 and an increase in the
reserve for unfunded commitments of $275,000 during the first
quarter of 2023.
Net charge-offs, mostly related to our
automobile loan portfolio, totaled $610,000 and $166,000 during the
three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The
allowance for credit losses totaled $13.2 million at March 31, 2024
and $12.3 million at March 31, 2023. The allowance for credit
losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.35% at March 31, 2024
and 2023.
The following tables present the activity in the
allowance for credit losses and the reserve for unfunded
commitments during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023
(in thousands).

Bank Term Funding Program
The Federal Reserve Board, on March 12, 2023,
announced the creation of a new Bank Term Funding Program (BTFP).
The BTFP offers loans of up to one year in length to banks, savings
associations, credit unions, and other eligible depository
institutions pledging U.S. Treasuries, agency debt and
mortgage-backed securities, and other qualifying assets as
collateral. These assets will be valued at par. At December 31,
2023, the Company had outstanding borrowings under the BTFP
totaling $80 million. In January 2024 the Company borrowed an
additional $25 million under the BTFP for a total of $105 million
outstanding at March 31, 2024. This borrowing earns interest at the
rate of 4.85% and is payable on January 17, 2025. Borrowings under
the BTFP can be prepaid without penalty. Interest expense
recognized on the BTFP borrowings for the three months ended March
31, 2024, totaled $1.2 million.
Shareholders’ Equity
Total shareholders’ equity increased by $32.7
million from $128.8 million at March 31, 2023, to $161.5 million at
March 31, 2024. The $32.7 million includes earnings during the
twelve-month period totaling $28.4 million, a decrease in
accumulated other comprehensive loss of $9.4 million related to the
investment portfolio restructuring described earlier and stock
option activity totaling $0.9 million. These items were partially
offset by the payment of cash dividends totaling $6.0 million.
Liquidity
The Company manages its liquidity to provide the
ability to generate funds to support asset growth, meet deposit
withdrawals (both anticipated and unanticipated), fund customers'
borrowing needs and satisfy maturity of short-term borrowings. The
Company’s liquidity needs are managed using assets or liabilities,
or both. On the asset side, in addition to cash and due from banks,
the Company maintains an investment portfolio which includes
unpledged U.S. Government-sponsored agency securities that are
classified as available-for-sale. On the liability side, liquidity
needs are managed by offering competitive rates on deposit products
and the use of established lines of credit.
The Company is a member of the Federal Home Loan
Bank of San Francisco (FHLB) and can borrow up to $237 million from
the FHLB secured by commercial and residential mortgage loans with
carrying values totaling $431 million. The Company is also eligible
to participate in the Bank Term Lending Program. At March 31, 2024,
the Company had outstanding borrowings under the BTFP totaling $105
million, secured by $117 million in par value of securities pledged
as collateral under the BTFP. In addition to its FHLB borrowing
line and the BTFP, the Company has unsecured short-term borrowing
agreements with two of its correspondent banks in the amounts of
$50 million and $20 million. There were no outstanding borrowings
to the FHLB, or the correspondent banks at March 31, 2024, and
March 31, 2023.
Customer deposits are the Company’s primary
source of funds. Total deposits decreased by $107 million to $1.3
billion at March 31, 2024 from $1.4 billion at March 31, 2023.
Deposits are held in various forms with varying maturities. The
Company estimates that it has approximately $400 million in
uninsured deposits. Of this amount, $94 million represents deposits
that are collateralized such as deposits of states, municipalities
and tribal accounts.
The Company’s securities portfolio, Federal
funds sold, FHLB advances, and cash and due from banks serve as the
primary sources of liquidity, providing adequate funding for loans
during periods of high loan demand. During periods of decreased
lending, funds obtained from the maturing or sale of investments,
loan payments, and new deposits are invested in short-term earning
assets, such as cash held at the Federal Reserve Bank of San
Fransisco, Federal funds sold and investment securities, to serve
as a source of funding for future loan growth. Management believes
that the Company’s available sources of funds, including
borrowings, will provide adequate liquidity for its operations in
the foreseeable future.
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Driven by an increase in market rates and growth
in the loan portfolio, net interest income increased by $308,000
from $17.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2023, to
$17.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024. The
increase in net interest income includes an increase of $2.2
million in interest income partially offset by an increase of $1.9
million in interest expense. Interest and fees on loans increased
by $1.9 million related both to an increase in average balance and
an increase in yield. Average loan balances increased by $49
million, while the average yield on loans increased by 46 basis
points from 5.63% during the first quarter of 2023 to 6.09%
during the current quarter. The average prime interest rate
increased from 7.69% during the first quarter of 2023 to 8.5%
during the current quarter. Approximately 19% of the Company's
loans are tied to the prime interest rate and most of these reprice
within one to three months with a change in prime.
Interest on investment securities increased by
$668,000 related to an increase in average investment securities of
$13.4 million to $480 million and an increase in yield of 44 basis
points to 3.68%. The increase in loan and investment yields is
consistent with the increase in market rates during 2023 and
into the first quarter of 2024 and the restructuring of the
investment portfolio discussed earlier. Interest on cash balances
decreased by $327,000 related to a decline in average balance of
$44.2 million. This was partially offset by an increase in the rate
paid on these balances which increased from 4.64% during the first
quarter of 2023 to 5.57% during the current quarter mostly
related to an increase in the rate paid on balances held at the
Federal Reserve Bank (FRB). The average rate earned on FRB balances
increased from 4.59% during the first quarter of 2023 to 5.40%
during the current quarter.
Interest expense increased from
$638,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2023 to $2.6
million during the current period related to an increase in rate
paid on interest bearing liabilities and an increase in borrowings.
The average rate paid on interest bearing liabilities increased
from 0.36% during the 2023 quarter to 1.33% in 2024 related
mainly to an increase in market interest rates, an increase in
borrowings and the effect of a 4% time deposit promotion.
Interest paid on deposits increased by $720,000
and is broken down by product type as follows: money market
accounts - $159,000 and time deposits - $580,000. Related to a
decline of average balance of $67 million, interest on savings
deposits declined by $19,000. The average rate paid on
interest-bearing deposits increased from 0.28% during the first
quarter of 2023 to 0.75% during the current quarter.
During March 2023 we redeemed our junior
subordinated debentures with funding provided by a $10 million
borrowing on Plumas Bancorp's line of credit/term loan facility.
Interest expense incurred during the three months ended March 31,
2023, on the junior subordinated debentures totaled $141,000.
During the fourth quarter of 2023 we borrowed $80 million under the
BTFP and during the January 2024 we increased this borrowing by $25
million to a total of $105,000. Additionally, we increased Plumas
Bancorp's borrowing on its line of credit to $15 million during the
current quarter. Interest incurred on these borrowings totaled
$1.4 million and $13,000 during the three months ended March
31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
Net interest margin for the three months ended
March 31, 2024 decreased 2bp to 4.62%, down from 4.64% for the
same period in 2023.
Non-Interest Income/Expense
During the three months ended March 31, 2024,
non-interest income totaled $2.1 million, a decrease of $1.8
million from the three months ended March 31, 2023. The largest
component of this decrease was a $1.7 million gain on termination
of our interest rate swaps during the 2023 quarter. On May 26, 2020
we entered into two separate interest rate swap agreements with
notional amounts totaling $10 million, effectively converting $10
million in Subordinated Debentures related to Trust Preferred
Securities to fixed rate obligations. During the first quarter of
2023 we terminated these swaps, redeemed the Trust Preferred
Securities and paid all principal and interest due under the
debentures. As discussed earlier, during the current period, a
$19.9 million gain on sale of buildings was offset by a $19.8
million loss on investment securities.
During the three months ended March 31, 2024,
total non-interest expense increased by $1.2 million from $9.2
million during the first quarter of 2023 to $10.4 million during
the current quarter. The largest components of this increase were
increases in occupancy and equipment costs of $350,000, salary and
benefit expense of $299,000 and an increase in other expense of
$261,000. The increase in salary and benefit expense primarily
includes a 5% increase in salary expense and an increase in
commissions of $107 thousand that relates to an increase in SBA
7(a) loan production. Deferral of loan origination costs increased
by $138,000 also related to the increase in SBA 7(a) loan
production. The increase in occupancy and equipment costs relates
to an increase in rental expense related to the sales/leaseback.
The increase in other expense mostly relates to nonrecurring
expenses.
