VILLAGE BANK AND TRUST FINANCIAL CORP.

REPORTS 31% GROWTH IN EARNINGS FOR THE THIRD QUARTER OF 2020

 

Midlothian, Virginia, October 29, 2020. Village Bank and Trust Financial Corp. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq symbol: VBFC), parent company of Village Bank (the “Bank”), today reported unaudited results for the third quarter of 2020. Net income for the third quarter of 2020 was $2,269,000, or $1.55 per fully diluted share, compared to net income for the third quarter of 2019 of $1,727,000, or $1.19 per fully diluted share. For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020, net income was $5,502,000, or $3.78 per fully diluted share, compared to net income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2019 of $3,173,000, or $2.20 per fully diluted share.

 

Jay Hendricks, President and CEO, commented, “We produced an excellent third quarter, earning a return on average equity of 18.74% and earnings per share of $1.55 for the three months ended September 30, 2020. For the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2020, we earned a return on average equity of 15.00% and earnings per share of $4.68. We are pleased by the outstanding contribution from our mortgage banking segment, which produced net income of $1,240,000 for Q3 2020 compared to $643,000 for Q3 2019.”

 

“The two headwinds we are fighting are compression in net interest margin due to the low rate environment and flat core loan growth, as commercial demand is somewhat muted and line utilization low. We were able to reverse the compression in the net interest margin during the quarter by managing our funding cost, and as a result our margin expanded by 19 basis points from Q2 2020. Our opportunity to invest $185 million in Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loans into our community resulted in substantial growth in deposits and more than 400 new business relationships which we are developing into future growth opportunities. As a result, our loan pipeline is strengthening heading into Q4 2020. We will continue to work hard to invest any excess liquidity into higher yielding assets and manage our funding cost and mix to support our net interest margin and return on equity.”

 

“We believe we are well positioned to weather the economic environment as uncertainty around the pandemic lingers. While asset quality remains sound, we have added to the loan loss reserve over the past three quarters due deterioration in the economic environment due to uncertainty around the pandemic. Our exposure levels to COVID-sensitive industries are manageable and our relationship managers are in regular contact with our borrowers, which will allow us to adjust course in a timely manner where it makes sense. The two sectors we continue to focus on are hotels and entertainment, neither of which will fully recover until restrictions are lifted and the economy begins to rebound. We anticipate that our loan deferrals, a majority of which were six months in term, will exit their deferral status starting in October and drop significantly during Q4 2020.”

“Previously announced leadership changes during Q3 were smooth and transparent as I assumed the President and Chief Executive Officer responsibilities from Bill Foster, the Company’s longstanding President and Chief Executive Officer, who retired on August 14. As part of that transition, Roy Barzel, Donnie Kaloski and Christy Quesenbery stepped seamlessly into their new responsibilities as Chief Credit Officer, Chief Risk Officer and EVP of Operations, respectively. Additionally, Mary Margaret Kastelberg joined the Boards of Directors of the Company and the Bank on October 1, 2020. Collectively, these leadership changes will be of great value to the Company and the Board, strengthening and supporting the Company as we continue to grow and achieve our strategic goals.”

 

Continued Response to COVID-19

 

As the circumstances with the COVID-19 pandemic began to unfold, the Company rapidly mobilized over 80% of non-branch team members to work-from-home, went to drive-thru only at our branches with lobby access by appointment, and actively worked with borrowers to defer loan payments to allow operations to return to some level of normalcy. With the continued uncertainty around the COVID-19 pandemic, we continue to take the necessary measures to protect the health and wellbeing of our employees and customers as well as working with our borrowers who continue to be impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. We believe that we remain well positioned to weather the storm created by the COVID-19 pandemic and have built the balance sheet around a philosophy of prudent risk taking.

 

Operating Results

 

The following table presents quarterly results for the indicated periods (in thousands):

 

GAAP Operating Results by Segment

 

   Q3 2020   Q2 2020   Q1 2020   Q4 2019   Q3 2019 
Pre-tax earnings by segment                    
Commercial banking  $1,378   $1,876   $749   $1,289   $1,376 
Mortgage banking   1,569    1,124    388    360    814 
Income before income tax expense   2,947    3,000    1,137    1,649    2,190 
Commercial banking income tax expense   349    429    158    271    292 
Mortgage banking income tax expense   329    236    81    74    171 
Net income  $2,269   $2,335   $898   $1,304   $1,727 

 

The following are variances of note in the Commercial Banking Segment for the quarter ended September 30, 2020:

 

·Net interest margin expanded by 19 basis points to 3.21% for Q3 2020 compared to 3.02% for Q2 2020. The primary cause of the expansion was due to the following:

 

2

 

 

oThe Bank reduced the level of liquidity it held in federal funds sold during Q3 2020, with an average balance outstanding of $16,661,000 during Q3 2020 vs. $40,859,000 during Q2 2020. The Bank determined that the higher level of liquidity held in federal funds sold during Q2 2020 was no longer warranted as PPP loan originations had ended and deposit levels were stable.

 

oThe cost of funds dropped by 13 basis points from Q2 2020 to Q3 2020 as a result of the Bank continuing to build low cost relationship deposits and maintaining a disciplined approach to deposit pricing. Low cost relationship deposits grew by $14,439,000, or 3.25%, from Q2 2020, while higher cost time deposits decreased by $20,282,000, or 14.97%, from Q2 2020.

 

·Provision expense of $250,000 was recognized for Q3 2020 compared to $300,000 for Q2 2020 and $0 for Q3 2019. The provision expense for Q3 2020 was driven primarily by an increase in the qualitative factors as a result of the continued economic uncertainty surrounding COVID-19 and the elevated level of loan deferrals. The Company believes the current level of allowance for loan loss reserves are adequate to cover anticipated losses. However, the full economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remains unknown and the Company will continue to monitor the loan portfolio for indicators that would warrant additional provisions for loan losses through 2020 and beyond.

 

·Noninterest income was $666,000 for Q3 2020 compared to $724,000 for Q3 2019, or a decrease of 8.01%. The decrease was the result of lower service charges and interchange fee income due to lower transaction volumes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the cessation of gains on the sale of Small Business Administration loan guaranteed strips that occurred during Q3 2019 but not in Q3 2020 as management made the decision not to sell any guaranteed strips.

 

·Noninterest expense of $4,400,000 was recognized during Q3 2020 compared to $3,829,000 for Q3 2019, or an increase of 14.91%. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in salaries and benefits expenses associated with an increase in employee count to support several initiatives including expanding treasury management services, supporting information technology growth, and resources supporting PPP loan administration. Although non-interest expense was higher when compared to Q3 2019, as a percentage of average assets, non-interest expense decreased to 2.45% during Q3 2020 from 2.77% during 3Q 2019.

Loans and Asset Quality

 

The following table provides the composition of our loan portfolio at the dates indicated (in thousands):

 

Loans Outstanding
 
Loan Type   Q3 2020    Q2 2020    Q1 2020    Q4 2019    Q3 2019 
C&I + Owner occupied commercial real estate  $134,799   $138,121   $149,048   $143,427   $138,614 
PPP Loans   185,137    184,478    -    -    - 
Nonowner occupied commercial real estate   127,396    129,943    129,474    129,996    122,866

Total commercial loans   480,669    484,418    310,692    305,373    295,321 
Consumer/Residential   85,766    88,863    89,290    87,776    90,462 
Student   30,656    31,594    32,251    33,525    34,520 
Other   2,998    3,118    3,001    2,621    2,444 
Total loans  $600,089   $607,993   $435,234   $429,295   $422,747 

 

Total loans decreased by $7,904,000, or 1.30%, from Q2 2020, and increased by $177,342,000, or 41.95%, from Q3 2019. The reduction in loan balances on a linked quarter basis was a combination of muted demand and low line utilization in the commercial and consumer portfolios, in addition to the normal amortization of the portfolio during the quarter. While loan demand was soft during Q3 2020 our pipeline has strengthened heading into Q4 2020.

PPP loans

 

The Bank had $185,137,000 in PPP loans as of September 30, 2020, which have provided essential funds to over 1,500 businesses and nonprofits and protected more than 20,000 jobs in our community. As of October 23, 2020, the Bank had submitted 183 applications to the SBA for forgiveness totaling $37,891,000 and received proceeds of $1,600,000 on 52 of those applications. Below is a breakdown by loan size including SBA fees expected to be earned as of quarter end (dollars in thousands):

 

PPP Loans as of September 30, 2020
 
Loan Size  # of Loans   $ of Loans   $ SBA Fee 
< $350,000   1,426   $94,240   $4,547 
$350,000 - $2 million   94    67,795    1,853 
> $2 million   6    23,102    184 
Total   1,526   $185,137   $6,584 

 

The Bank expects the approval for forgiveness on PPP loans to be slow during Q4 2020, but expects it to pick up in the first quarter of 2021. This will result in net interest margin remaining compressed during Q4 2020 while the recognition of unamortized deferred fee income associated with the PPP loans will occur at a higher rate in the first half of 2021.

 

Asset quality

 

The Bank has been working with customers by granting loan payment deferrals to help them through the pandemic induced recession. While the Bank has not seen significant deterioration in its credit metrics, we believe that credit quality will deteriorate because of the current pandemic and have taken provisions for loan losses as a result. The Bank’s asset quality metrics continue to compare favorably to our peers as follows:

Client Accommodations

 

The Bank continues to work with its customers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic by allowing them to defer loan payments for up to six months to provide time for consumers and businesses to return to a level of normalcy. During Q3 2020, the balance of deferred loans increased slightly as the percentage of outstanding loans increased to 20.32% as of Q3 2020 compared to 19.80% as of Q2 2020, while the actual number of deferrals decreased to 5.85% as of Q3 2020 compared to 6.60% as of Q2 2020. A majority of our deferrals were for a period of six months and we anticipate a substantial portion of these loans will come off of deferral during the fourth quarter. To illustrate this point, as of October 23, 2020 the balance of deferred loans as a percentage outstanding loans has decreased to 16.65% compared to 20.32% as of September 30, 2020, and the number of deferrals has decreased to 4.01% compared to 5.85% as of September 30, 2020. We believe we are in a good position to continue to work with our customers that have been severely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and when necessary will move forward on longer term modifications, as permitted under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act.

(1) Deferrals are expressed as a percentage of the outstanding balance (“Amount” column) and number of loans (“Number” column) per category.

(2) The table excludes PPP Loans of $185,137 as the inclusion of these loans dilutes the impact of the deferral program.

(3) The SBA is providing a financial reprieve to small business during the COVID-19 pandemic.  The SBA will automatically pay the principal, interest, and fees on current 7(a) loans for a period of six months. These loans have been excluded from the above metrics.

 

The Bank anticipates that borrowers in the hotel and entertainment industries will require additional loan deferrals. The hotel segment, which represents approximately 24% of total deferrals, has a weighted average loan to value of approximately 45%. The low loan to value on the hotel segment supports a lower breakeven point on occupancy which will allow these borrowers to return to amortizing terms. Below is a breakdown of the loan portfolio showing the percentage of loans deferred in select industry categories at the dates indicated (dollars in thousands):

 

       October 23, 2020(1)   September 30, 2020   June 30, 2020

Deposits

 

The following table provides the composition of our deposits at the dates indicated (in thousands):

 

Deposits Outstanding
 
Deposit Type   Q3 2020    Q2 2020    Q1 2020    Q4 2019    Q3 2019 
Noninterest-bearing demand  $217,204   $212,434   $139,660   $131,228   $147,969 
Interest checking   59,712    56,448    51,008    48,428    46,631 
Money market   147,467    143,177    114,461    99,955    113,061 
Savings   33,733    31,618    26,618    26,396    25,945 
Time deposits   115,736    136,118    137,096    137,201    143,833 
Total deposits  $573,852   $579,795   $468,843   $443,208   $477,439 

 

Total deposits decreased by $5,943,000, or 1.03%, from Q2 2020, and increased by $96,413,000, or 20.19%, from Q3 2019. Excluding the impact on wholesale deposits noted below, total deposits increased by $6,377,000, or 1.10%, from Q2 2020 and $108,733, or 22.77%, from Q3 2019. Variances of note are as follows:

 

·Total deposits grew by $6,377,000, or 1.10%, from Q2 2020 excluding the impact of the call on brokered deposits and the maturity of the interest listing service deposits.

 

·Noninterest bearing demand account balances increased $4,770,000 from Q2 2020 and increased $69,235,000 from Q3 2019, and represented 37.85% of total deposits compared to 36.64% as of Q2 2020 and 30.99% as of Q3 2019. The increase in noninterest bearing deposits from Q3 2019 to Q3 2020 was a result of the Bank converting a significant portion of non-customer PPP loan applicants into customers during the nine-months ended September 30, 2020.

 

·Low cost relationship deposits (i.e. interest checking, money market, and savings) balances increased $9,669,000, or 4.18%, from Q2 2020 and increased $55,275,000, or 29.78%, from Q3 2019. The increase in these accounts during Q3 2020 was primarily a result of continued growth in accounts from non-customer PPP loan applicants and the migration of customer funds from time deposits.

 

·Time deposits decreased by $20,382,000, or 14.97%, from Q2 2020 and $28,097,000, or 19.53%, from Q3 2019. The decrease in time deposits was a result of the following:

 

oThe migration of customers from time deposits to lower cost deposit products

 

oThe Bank made the decision to exercise the call option on $2,893,000 in brokered deposits that carried a 1.03% weighted average cost of funds. These funds were added to the balance sheet in Q1 2020 to bolster liquidity, in order to support the PPP loan program and meet other liquidity needs; however, due to the stable nature of the deposit base these funds no longer needed to support the balance sheet.

 

oDuring Q3 2020, $9,427,000 of internet listing service deposits matured during the quarter and were not replaced. These deposits carried a 1.04% weighted average cost of funds. As with the brokered deposits, these deposits were added to bolster liquidity early during Q2 2020 and were no longer needed to support the balance sheet.
