RVSB Riverview Bancorp Inc

Riverview Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq GSM: RVSB) (“Riverview” or the “Company”) today reported earnings of $2.9 million, or $0.13 per diluted share for the fourth fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2020, compared to $4.1 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, in the preceding quarter, and $4.2 million, or $0.19 per diluted share, in the fourth fiscal quarter a year ago. For fiscal 2020, earnings were $15.7 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, compared to $17.3 million, or $0.76 per diluted share, in fiscal 2019.

“The COVID-19 pandemic has proven to be an unprecedented time globally, nationally and in the market areas we serve,” stated Kevin Lycklama, president and chief executive officer. “Our team achieved solid operating results in fiscal 2020, driven by organic loan growth, excellent asset quality and improved operating efficiencies. Our fourth quarter earnings reflect the early impact of the pandemic and its effect on our communities.”

“Above all else, the safety of our customers and employees is our top priority and we began implementing our pandemic response plan in early March to reduce the risk of exposure and spread of COVID-19,” noted Lycklama. “In mid-March, our lobby access was restricted at all branches and we actively encouraged the use of drive-up services, ATMs, online banking and call center operations. Approximately 40% of our staff is working remotely, and we will continue with this structure until the mandated Stay-At-Home orders have been lifted by the States of Washington and Oregon.” 

Below are some of the impacts of the pandemic related to Riverview’s operations: 

• Industry Exposure: The governors of both Washington and Oregon have ordered all non-essential businesses to close, mandated Stay-at-Home orders, and closed schools and universities. While the economic impact of these steps is widespread, some industries will be more acutely affected by the current business decline. Riverview’s loan portfolio exposure to industries most affected by these mandates include: Hotel/Motel ($108.3 million, 11.9% of total loans), Retail Strip Centers ($80.8 million, 8.9% of total loans), Gas Station/Auto Repair ($41.3 million, 4.5% of total loans) and Restaurants/Fast Food ($14.9 million, 1.6%). Loans to these customers are generally secured by real estate and had strong performance heading into the current pandemic. The weighted average loan-to-value and debt service coverage ratio for these portfolios were as follows: Hotel/Motel (54% and 1.93), Retail Strip Centers (52% and 1.63), Gas Station/Auto Repair (52% and 2.55), and Restaurants/Fast Food (57% and 1.46). Riverview also performed a refresh of the stress test on its commercial loan portfolio.
• Loan Accommodations: As of May 5, 2020, Riverview had approved payment deferrals for 53 commercial loans that were impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic totaling $125.4 million. In general, the payment deferral period for these loans was 90 days. Depending on economic conditions, extensions to the initial payment deferral periods may be necessary. Riverview has received an additional 46 commercial loan modification requests totaling $72.8 million that it is in the process of completing. In addition, 60 consumer and mortgage loans totaling $16.0 million were approved for payment deferrals. Since all of these loans were performing loans that were current on their payments prior to COVID-19, these loan modifications are not considered to be troubled debt restructurings pursuant to provisions contained within the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”).
• Loan Loss Reserve: Riverview’s asset quality remained stable during the quarter; however, management determined a $1.3 million provision for loan losses for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 was warranted. The current quarter’s provision for loan losses was due primarily to economic uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. The allowance for loan losses was $12.6 million, or 1.38% of total loans, at March 31, 2020.
• Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”). On March 27, 2020, Congress passed the CARES Act providing financial relief and support to the economy, including funding for the Small Business Association’s (“SBA”) PPP. Riverview began processing PPP loan applications immediately after the program was available and as of May 5th, Riverview had obtained approval for 751 loans totaling approximately $115.1 million with an average loan size of $153,000. Of the 751 approved loans, 72% were for loans under $100,000 and over 91% for loans under $350,000.  This also included funding for nearly 50 local non-profit organizations.“The response to the rollout of this program by our staff has been tremendous,” said Lycklama.  “I would like to thank our employees who worked days, nights and weekends the last several weeks to provide this critical lifeline to our local business and communities. Their efforts secured funding to support nearly 12,000 jobs. As a 96-year-old community bank, we are deeply rooted in our communities and we take considerable pride in serving small businesses, which are at the heart of our mission as a community bank.”“Community banks across the nation stepped up when our communities and neighbors needed help,” said Lycklama. “Banks under $10 billion in assets approved approximately 60% of the loans in the first round of the PPP. I am proud of Riverview’s performance and our ability to handle as many applications as we did. This program has really highlighted the core values and spirit of a community bank. We were able to be flexible, respond quickly and provide the personal attention that our local business partners deserve and have come to expect from Riverview.”

• Liquidity Resources: Riverview is well positioned with adequate levels of cash and liquid assets as of March 31, 2020. In addition to the on-balance sheet liquidity, Riverview has over $300 million of available liquidity through the Federal Home Loan Bank and the Federal Reserve Bank.

Fourth Quarter Highlights (at or for the period ended March 31, 2020)

• Net income was $2.9 million, or $0.13 per diluted share.
• Net interest margin (NIM) remained healthy at 4.10% for the quarter.
• Return on average assets was 0.99% and return on average equity was 7.77% for the fourth quarter.
• Provision for loan losses was $1.3 million for the fourth quarter.
• Total loans increased $25.0 million during the quarter to $911.5 million. Loan balances increased 4.0% over the last fiscal year.
• Total deposits were $990.4 million at quarter end. Deposit balances increased 7.1% over the last fiscal year.
• Asset quality remains strong, with non-performing assets at 0.12% of total assets.
• Total risk-based capital ratio was 17.01% and Tier 1 leverage ratio was 11.78%.
• Paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share, generating a current dividend yield of 4.19% based on the share price at close of market on the payment date of April 22, 2020.
• Riverview completed its share repurchase program on April 17, 2020, repurchasing 500,000 shares totaling $2.5 million.

Income Statement

Total net revenues were $13.9 million during the quarter compared to $14.7 million in the prior quarter and $14.5 million in the year ago quarter. For fiscal year 2020, net revenues totaled $58.1 million compared to $58.2 million for fiscal year 2019.

Return on average assets was 0.99% in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2020 compared to 1.49% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. Return on average equity and return on average tangible equity (non-GAAP) was 7.77% and 9.55%, respectively, compared to 12.98% and 16.50% for the fourth fiscal quarter a year ago.

Net interest income for the quarter was $11.1 million compared to $11.5 million in the preceding quarter and $11.9 million in the fourth fiscal quarter a year ago. For the fiscal year 2020, net interest income was $45.7 million compared to $47.1 million in fiscal year 2019. The decrease in net interest income for the quarter and the year reflects the volatile interest rate environment, with growth in our loan and deposit portfolios offset by rising deposit costs and declining loan yields.

Riverview’s fourth fiscal quarter NIM (GAAP) was 4.10% compared to 4.23% in the prior quarter and 4.52% in the fourth fiscal quarter a year ago. The accretion on purchased loans totaled $65,000 during the current quarter compared to $219,000 during the preceding quarter and $198,000 in the same period a year ago, resulting in a two basis point increase in the NIM for the current period compared to an eight basis point increase for the preceding quarter and a seven basis point increase for the same period a year ago. Net fees on loan prepayments were $22,000 for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2020 and did not significantly contribute to the current quarter’s NIM. This compares to $211,000 in net fees on loan prepayments adding eight basis point to NIM in the preceding quarter and $306,000 adding 12 basis points to the NIM in the fourth fiscal quarter a year ago. This resulted in a core-NIM (non-GAAP) of 4.08% in the current quarter compared to 4.07% in the preceding quarter and 4.33% in the same quarter a year ago. In fiscal year 2020, Riverview’s NIM (GAAP) was 4.26% compared to 4.45% in fiscal year 2019. Net fees on loan prepayments were $377,000 for the year ended March 31, 2020, which added four basis points to the NIM compared to $603,000 adding six basis points to the NIM for the year ended March 31, 2019.

“Our net interest margin contracted during the quarter due primarily to the lower yield on interest-earning assets,” said David Lam, executive vice president and chief financial officer. “With the current volatile financial markets attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting rapid reduction in short term interest rates affecting all banks, we anticipate continued pressure on our net interest margin going forward.”

Non-interest income was $2.9 million in the fourth fiscal quarter compared to $3.2 million in the third fiscal quarter and $2.7 million in the fourth fiscal quarter a year ago. For fiscal 2020, non-interest income increased 11.3% to $12.4 million compared to $11.1 million a year ago. The improvement in non-interest income was primarily driven by an increase in service charges and higher asset management fees.

Asset management fees were $1.0 million during the fourth fiscal quarter compared to $1.1 million in the preceding quarter and $987,000 in the fourth fiscal quarter a year ago. For fiscal year 2020, asset management fees increased to $4.4 million compared to $3.8 million in fiscal year 2019. Riverview Trust Company’s assets under management remained stable at $1.2 billion at March 31, 2020 compared to three months earlier and increased $591.0 million when compared to March 31, 2019 due primarily to a single large client added during the third quarter of fiscal 2020.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, non-interest expense decreased to $8.8 million compared to $9.2 million in the preceding quarter. For the full year, non-interest expense was $36.3 million compared to $35.7 million in fiscal 2019. “We have been able to manage and control our operating expenses throughout fiscal 2020, even with our investments in technology and several key hires during the current fiscal year,” added Lam. The efficiency ratio was 63.3% for the fourth fiscal quarter compared to 63.1% in the preceding quarter and 61.6% in the fourth fiscal quarter a year ago.

Riverview’s effective tax rate for fiscal year 2020 was 23.5% compared to 23.0% for fiscal year 2019. The increase in the effective tax rate is attributable to the apportionment and taxation of conducting business in both Washington and Oregon. Our business continues to grow in the Oregon market, and as a result, we have seen our overall effective tax rate increase.

Balance Sheet Review

Riverview’s total loans increased $25.0 million during the quarter to $911.5 million compared to $886.5 million three months earlier and increased $35.4 million compared to $876.1 million a year ago. Total loans continue to be impacted by an elevated level of paydowns on existing loans; however, the loan pipeline remained healthy at $71.3 million at March 31, 2020 compared to $64.5 million at the end of the prior quarter. Undisbursed construction loans totaled $25.7 million at March 31, 2020 compared to $36.0 million three months earlier, with the majority of the undisbursed construction loans expected to fund over the next several quarters.

Revolving commercial business loan commitments totaled $76.4 million at March 31, 2020.  Utilization on these loans totaled 23.7% at March 31, 2020 compared to 23.5% at December 31, 2019.

The weighted average rate on loan originations during the quarter was 4.16% at March 31, 2020 compared to 4.58% at December 31, 2019 and 5.81% at March 31, 2019, reflecting the overall decreasing rate environment.

Deposits totaled $990.4 million at March 31, 2020, unchanged compared to three months earlier, and increased $65.4 million compared to a year earlier. The increase in deposits year over year was primarily in savings and CD products. “Deposits increased 7.1% compared to a year ago which help to fund our loan growth and allowed us to pay off our outstanding FHLB borrowings,” said Lam. A year ago, outstanding FHLB advances were $56.6 million. Deposit costs were 0.38% during the fourth quarter and in the preceding quarter compared to 0.10% during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. The year over year increase in deposit costs was due to pricing pressures and Riverview’s efforts to remain competitive in its Northwest markets.

Shareholders’ equity increased to $148.8 million at March 31, 2020 compared to $145.8 million three months earlier and $133.1 million a year earlier. Tangible book value per share (non-GAAP) increased to $5.37 at March 31, 2020 compared to $5.18 at December 31, 2019 and $4.65 at March 31, 2019. Riverview paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share on April 22, 2020 to shareholders of record on April 9, 2020.

Credit Quality

“Riverview’s asset quality metrics improved compared to a year ago; however we are continuously monitoring our loan portfolio given the current economic conditions,” said Lycklama. Non-performing loans totaled $1.4 million, or 0.15% of total loans, at March 31, 2020 compared to $1.5 million, or 0.17% of total loans, at both December 31, 2019 and March 31, 2019. Net loan charge offs were $60,000 during the fourth fiscal quarter of 2020 compared to $3,000 in the preceding quarter and $45,000 in the fourth fiscal quarter a year ago.

Classified assets decreased to $1.6 million at March 31, 2020 compared to $3.1 million at December 31, 2019 and $6.3 million at March 31, 2019. The classified asset to total capital ratio was 1.1% at March 31, 2020 compared to 2.1% three months earlier and 4.5% a year earlier.

At March 31, 2020, the allowance for loan losses increased to $12.6 million compared to $11.4 million three months earlier and $11.5 million one year earlier. As previously stated, the increase in the allowance was due to an increase in loan loss provisions associated with economic uncertainties related to the COVID-19 pandemic and to a lesser extent, the loan growth during the quarter. The allowance for loan losses represented 1.38% of total loans at March 31, 2020 compared to 1.29% three months earlier and 1.31% a year earlier. Included in the carrying value of loans are net discounts on the MBank purchased loans, which may reduce the need for an allowance for loan losses on these loans because they are carried at an amount below the outstanding principal balance. The remaining net discount on these purchased loans was $1.1 million at March 31, 2020, unchanged compared to three months earlier.

Capital

Riverview continues to maintain capital levels well in excess of the regulatory requirements to be categorized as “well capitalized” with a total risk-based capital ratio of 17.01% and a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 11.78% at March 31, 2020. Tangible common equity to average tangible assets ratio (non-GAAP) increased to 10.50% at March 31, 2020.

Branch Expansion

Riverview previously announced plans for three new locations in Clark County, Washington, which will provide a terrific complement to its existing branch network.  Our new branch in downtown Camas is scheduled to open this summer while our new location in the Cascade Park neighborhood of Vancouver is scheduled to open later this fall. A construction moratorium due to COVID-19 has pushed the opening of the new branch location in Ridgefield to early 2021.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with information useful in understanding the Company’s financial performance; however, readers of this report are urged to review these non-GAAP financial measures in conjunction with GAAP results as reported.

Financial measures that exclude intangible assets are non-GAAP measures. To provide investors with a broader understanding of capital adequacy, Riverview provides non-GAAP financial measures for tangible common equity, along with the GAAP measure. Tangible shareholders’ equity is calculated as shareholders’ equity less goodwill and other intangible assets. In addition, tangible assets are total assets less goodwill and other intangible assets. We calculate tangible book value per share by dividing tangible shareholders’ equity by the number of common shares outstanding. Riverview also provides a non-GAAP measure of net interest margin, along with the GAAP measure. Core net interest margin is calculated as net interest margin less accretion on purchased loans and net fees on loan prepayments. These non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied and are not audited. Further, the non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for book value per share, total shareholders' equity or net interest margin as determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Reconciliations of the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures are presented below.
