|
|
|
|
|
| · | Non-performing assets were $3.6 million or 0.21% of total assets at June 30, 2022, compared to $3.2 million or 0.20% of total assets at December 31, 2021. |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Total deposits were $1.5 billion at June 30, 2022, compared to $1.4 billion at December 31, 2021. |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Core deposits, a non-GAAP measure, were $1.5 billion or 97.93% of total deposits at June 30, 2022, compared to $1.4 billion or 98.14% of total deposits at December 31, 2021. |
|
|
|
|
|
| · | Net interest margin was 2.83% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 2.99% for the year ended December 31, 2021. |
Net earnings were $3.2 million or $0.59 per share and $0.57 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $4.6 million or $0.82 per share and $0.80 per diluted share for the prior year period. Lance A. Sellers, President and Chief Executive Officer, attributed the decrease in second quarter net earnings to a decrease in net interest income, an increase in the provision for loan losses and an increase in non-interest expense, which were partially offset by an increase in non-interest income compared to the prior year period, as discussed below.
Net interest income was $11.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $11.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in net interest income is due to a $525,000 decrease in interest income, which was partially offset by a $198,000 decrease in interest expense. The decrease in interest income is primarily due to a $1.1 million decrease in interest income and fees on loans, which was partially offset by an increase in interest income on balances due from banks and an increase in interest income on investment securities. The decrease in interest income and fees on loans is primarily due to a decrease in fee income on SBA PPP loans. The increase in interest income on investment securities is primarily due to additional securities purchased with additional cash resulting from an increase in deposits. The decrease in interest expense is primarily due to a decrease in rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income after the provision for loan losses was $10.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $11.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The provision for loan losses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $410,000, compared to a recovery of $226,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in the provision for loan losses is primarily attributable to an increase in reserves due to a net increase in the volume of loans in the general reserve pool.
Non-interest income was $7.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $6.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in non-interest income is primarily attributable to a $1.4 million increase in appraisal management fee income due to an increase in the volume of appraisals, which was partially offset by a $624,000 decrease in mortgage banking income due to a decrease in mortgage loan volume and additional mortgage loans being retained for the Bank’s portfolio.
Non-interest expense was $14.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $12.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in non-interest expense is primarily attributable to a $1.1 million increase in appraisal management fee expense due to an increase in the volume of appraisals and a $777,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits expense primarily due to an increase in insurance costs.
Net earnings were $6.7 million or $1.21 per share and $1.18 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $8.7 million or $1.55 per share and $1.51 per diluted share for the prior year period. The decrease in year-to-date net earnings is primarily attributable to a decrease in net interest income, an increase in the provision for loan losses and an increase in non-interest expense, which were partially offset by an increase in non-interest income compared to the prior year period, as discussed below.
Net interest income was $22.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $22.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in net interest income is due to a $1.1 million decrease in interest income, which was partially offset by a $350,000 decrease in interest expense. The decrease in interest income is primarily due to a $2.0 million decrease in interest income and fees on loans, which was partially offset by an increase in interest income on balances due from banks and an increase in interest income on investment securities. The decrease in interest income and fees on loans is primarily due to a decrease in fee income on SBA PPP loans. The increase in interest income on investment securities is primarily due to additional securities purchased with additional cash resulting from an increase in deposits. The decrease in interest expense is primarily due to a decrease in rates paid on interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income after the provision for loan losses was $21.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $23.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The provision for loan losses for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $481,000, compared to a recovery of $681,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in the provision for loan losses is primarily attributable to an increase in reserves due to a net increase in the volume of loans in the general reserve pool.
Non-interest income was $14.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $11.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in non-interest income is primarily attributable to a $3.1 million increase in appraisal management fee income due to an increase in the volume of appraisals, which was partially offset by a $1.3 million decrease in mortgage banking income due to a decrease in mortgage loan volume and additional mortgage loans being retained for the Bank’s portfolio.
Non-interest expense was $27.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $24.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in non-interest expense is primarily attributable to a $2.4 million increase in appraisal management fee expense due to an increase in the volume of appraisals and a $443,000 increase in salaries and employee benefits expense primarily due to an increase in insurance costs.
Income tax expense was $806,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The effective tax rate was 20.03% for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 20.55% for the three months ended June 30, 2021. Income tax expense was $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The effective tax rate was 19.87% for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to 20.41% for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Total assets were $1.7 billion as of June 30, 2022, compared to $1.6 billion at December 31, 2021. Available for sale securities were $426.8 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to $406.5 million as of December 31, 2021. Total loans were $959.5 million as of June 30, 2022, compared to $884.9 million as of December 31, 2021. The increase in loans was achieved despite a $16.6 million reduction in PPP loans during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The Bank had $1.4 million and $18.0 million in PPP loans at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
Non-performing assets were $3.6 million or 0.21% of total assets at June 30, 2022, compared to $3.2 million or 0.20% of total assets at December 31, 2021. Non-performing assets include $3.6 million in commercial and residential mortgage loans and $21,000 in other loans at June 30, 2022, compared to $3.2 million in commercial and residential mortgage loans and $51,000 in other loans at December 31, 2021.
The allowance for loan losses was $9.8 million or 1.02% of total loans at June 30, 2022, compared to $9.4 million or 1.06% at December 31, 2021. Management believes the current level of the allowance for loan losses is adequate; however, there is no assurance that additional adjustments to the allowance will not be required because of changes in economic conditions, regulatory requirements or other factors.
Deposits were $1.5 billion at June 30, 2022, compared to $1.4 billion at December 31, 2021. Core deposits, a non-GAAP measure, which include noninterest-bearing demand deposits, NOW, MMDA, savings and non-brokered certificates of deposit of denominations less than $250,000, were $1.5 billion and $1.4 billion at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Management believes it is useful to calculate and present core deposits because of the positive impact this low cost funding source provides to the Bank’s funding base. Certificates of deposit in amounts of $250,000 or more totaled $30.9 million at June 30, 2022, compared to $26.3 million at December 31, 2021.
Securities sold under agreements to repurchase were $37.1 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Junior subordinated debentures were $15.5 million at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Shareholders’ equity was $112.4 million, or 6.70% of total assets, at June 30, 2022, compared to $142.4 million, or 8.77% of total assets, at December 31, 2021. The decrease in shareholders’ equity is primarily due to an increase in the unrealized loss on investment securities available for sale due to rate changes from December 31, 2021 to June 30, 2022. The Company repurchased 22,000 shares of its common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2022 under the Company’s stock repurchase program, which was authorized in January 2022.
Peoples Bank operates 17 banking offices entirely in North Carolina, with offices in Catawba, Alexander, Lincoln, Mecklenburg, Iredell and Wake Counties. The Bank also operates loan production offices in Lincoln, Mecklenburg, Rowan and Forsyth Counties. The Company’s common stock is publicly traded and is quoted on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “PEBK.”
