Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 were $75.9 million, versus $70.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in revenues for the quarter was primarily attributable to an increase in interest expense partially offset by an increase in interest on loans due to higher overall loan yields1. The increase in revenues for the nine months ended 2023 was primarily attributable to an increase in interest and fees on loans due to loan growth and higher overall loan yields1 partially offset by an increase in interest expense.
1 - The increase in overall loan yields was 100 bps and 114 bps for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively. |
Net income for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 was $9.8 million, versus $9.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 was $28.1 million, versus $29.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in net income for the quarter ended 2023 was primarily due to the credit for credit losses, partially offset by an increase in noninterest expense, and the aforementioned decrease in revenues. The decrease in net income for nine months ended 2023 was due to an increase in noninterest expense partially offset by the aforementioned increase in revenues.
Basic and diluted earnings per share were $1.25 and $1.25, respectively, for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 compared to basic and diluted earnings per share of $1.19 and $1.18, respectively, for the quarter ended September 30, 2022.

The net interest margin (fully taxable equivalent basis) for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and September 30, 2022 was 3.04% and 3.81%, respectively. The decrease in the net interest margin was due to an increase in funding costs partially offset by an increase in earning assets.
ACL-Loans
The ACL-Loans was $29.3 million as of September 30, 2023 compared to $30.7 million as of June 30, 2023, for a release of $1.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. The ACL-Loans as a percentage of total loans was 1.06% as of September 30, 2023 compared to 1.11% as of June 30, 2023. The reduction for the quarter was primarily due to a revision in the CECL methodology given further refinement of the Company's loan portfolio segmentation.
The ACL-Loans was $29.3 million as of September 30, 2023 compared to $22.4 million as of December 31, 2022, an increase of $6.9 million year to date, of which $5.1 million being the CECL transition adjustment to retained earnings. The ACL-Loans as a percentage of total loans was 1.06% as of September 30, 2023 compared to 0.84% as of December 31, 2022. The increase in the ACL-Loans provision for credit losses was primarily driven by loan growth and forward looking CECL macroeconomic factors.
Financial Condition
Assets totaled $3.2 billion at September 30, 2023, a decrease of $2.7 million or 0.1% compared to December 31, 2022. Gross loans totaled $2.8 billion at September 30, 2023, an increase of $94.7 million, or 3.5% compared to December 31, 2022. Deposits totaled $2.8 billion at September 30, 2023, a decrease of $32.2 million, or 1.1% compared to December 31, 2022.
Capital
Shareholders’ equity totaled $257.9 million as of September 30, 2023, an increase of $19.4 million compared to December 31, 2022, primarily a result of net income of $28.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase was partially offset by the Day 1 CECL adoption of $4.9 million, dividends paid of $4.7 million, and a $1.3 million unfavorable impact to accumulated other comprehensive income. The unfavorable impact to accumulated other comprehensive income was driven by fair value marks on the Company's available for sale investment securities portfolio of $1.4 million partially offset by fair value marks related to hedge positions involving interest rate swaps of $0.1 million. The Company's interest rate swaps are used to hedge interest rate risk.

This press release may contain certain forward-looking statements about the Company. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding anticipated future events and can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. They often include words such as “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” and “intend” or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” or “may.” Forward-looking statements, by their nature, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Certain factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expected results include increased competitive pressures, changes in the interest rate environment, general economic conditions or conditions within the banking industry or securities markets, and legislative and regulatory changes that could adversely affect the business in which the Company and its subsidiaries are engaged.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to evaluating the Company's financial performance in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), management may evaluate certain non-GAAP financial measures, such as the efficiency ratio. A computation and reconciliation of certain non-GAAP financial measures used for these purposes is contained in the accompanying Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Measures tables. We believe that providing certain non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with information useful in understanding our financial performance, our performance trends and financial position. For example, the Company believes that the efficiency ratio is useful in the assessment of financial performance, including noninterest expense control. The Company believes that tangible common equity, tangible assets, tangible common equity to tangible assets, tangible common shareholders' equity, fully diluted tangible book value per common share, adjusted noninterest expense, operating revenue, efficiency ratio, average tangible common equity, annualized return on average tangible common equity, return on average assets, return on average shareholders' equity, and the dividend payout ratio are useful to evaluate the relative strength of the Company's performance and capital position. We utilize these measures for internal planning and forecasting purposes. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered a substitute for GAAP basis measures and results, and we strongly encourage investors to review our consolidated financial statements in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.

Efficiency ratio is defined as noninterest expense, less other real estate owned expenses and amortization of intangible assets, divided by our operating revenue, which is equal to net interest income plus noninterest income excluding gains and losses on sales of securities and gains and losses on other real estate owned. In our judgment, the adjustments made to operating revenue allow investors and analysts to better assess our operating expenses in relation to our core operating revenue by removing the volatility that is associated with certain one-time items and other discrete items that are unrelated to our core business. |
(2) |
The dividend payout ratio is calculated by dividing dividends per share by earnings per share. |

Noninterest expense increased by $1.2 million to $12.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2022. Noninterest expense increased by $5.6 million to $37.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The increase in noninterest expense was primarily driven by an increase in FDIC insurance expense and salaries and employee benefits expense.
FDIC insurance expense totaled $1.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $0.8 million when compared to the same period in 2022. FDIC insurance expense totaled $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $2.4 million when compared to the same period in 2022. The increase in FDIC insurance expense is attributed to balance sheet growth and composition, as well as an increase in FDIC insurance rates.
Salaries and employee benefits expense totaled $18.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $2.3 million when compared to the same period in 2022. The increase in salaries and employee benefits expense was driven by an increase in average full time equivalent employees from 139 at September 30, 2023 compared to 131 for the same period in 2022. In addition, salaries and employee benefits expense increased due to one-time severance costs.
