EAU CLAIRE, WI, January 31, 2022 - Citizens Community Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (Nasdaq: CZWI), the parent company of Citizens Community Federal N.A. (the “Bank” or “CCFBank”), today reported earnings of $6.1 million and earnings per diluted share of $0.58 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to $5.0 million and $0.47 per diluted share for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, and $3.6 million and $0.32 per diluted share for the quarter ended December 31, 2020, respectively. Net income as adjusted (non-GAAP)1 was $6.1 million and $0.58 per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to net income as adjusted of $5.0 million and $0.47 per diluted share for the preceding quarter, and $3.7 million and $0.33 per diluted share for the fourth quarter one year ago. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, earnings increased 67% to a record $21.3 million, or $1.98 per diluted share compared to earnings of $12.7 million or $1.14 per diluted share, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.
The Company’s fourth quarter 2021 operating results reflected the following changes from the third quarter of 2021: (1) increase in loan interest income due to loan growth and the resulting increase in the loan portfolio, partially offset by lower net accretion of SBA PPP fees and purchase accretion; (2) lower deposit costs; (3) an increase in net gains on the sale of investment securities; and (4) a slight increase in compensation expense of $0.3 million largely due to higher incentive compensation based on performance, including loan growth.
Book value per share was $16.27 at December 31, 2021, compared to $15.77 at September 30, 2021, and $14.52 at December 31, 2020. Tangible book value per share (non-GAAP)5 was $12.90 at December 31, 2021, compared to $12.37 at September 30, 2021, and $11.18 at December 31, 2020. Book value per share increased $1.75 over the past 12 months, a 12.1% increase from December 31, 2020. Tangible book value per share increased $1.72 over the past 12 months, a 15.4% increase from December 31, 2020. These increases were net of the Company’s payment of the annual shareholder dividend in the first quarter of 2021 of $0.23 per share.
“We experienced a second consecutive quarter of exceptional loan growth in a period that typically shows decelerating business demand. However, our key markets are very strong with unemployment below 2%, which drove commercial real estate, multi-family and commercial development lending opportunities and growth. Our Ag based rural communities are also very healthy. SBA PPP loan forgiveness exceeded 95% of originations at year end. The reduction in cash balances at the Fed boosted our net interest margin and continued stability in asset quality was achieved. Expenses were well managed with compensation increasing due to higher loan production and net income incentives. As the year ended, loan pipelines had softened and some payoff activity expected in Q4 slipped into 2022,” said Stephen Bianchi, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer.

December 31, 2021 Highlights: (as of or for the 3-month period ended December 31, 2021 compared to September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020.)
•Quarterly earnings of $6.1 million, or $0.58 per diluted share for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2021, were the highest quarterly earnings in the Company’s history and up modestly from the quarter ended September 30, 2021 earnings of $5.0 million or $0.47 per diluted share, and increased from the quarter ended December 31, 2020 earnings of $3.6 million or $0.32 per diluted share. Fiscal 2021 earnings were up 67% and exceeded fiscal 2020’s previous record earnings. Year-over-year earnings for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, were $21.3 million, or $1.98 per share compared to $12.7 million, or $1.14 per share for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020.
•Total loans, exclusive of SBA PPP loans, increased $83.4 million, or 6.8% for the quarter ended December 31, 2021. Meanwhile, cash and investments declined $81.3 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2021. The Company sold $28.6 million of investments, most of which were 100% risk weighted for regulatory capital purposes, to help fund higher yielding loan growth and improve risk-based capital ratios. The reduction of $20.8 million in deposits this quarter was largely due to the withdrawal of temporary deposits by certain commercial depositors, who placed the net proceeds from sales of assets/businesses on deposit with the Bank the prior quarter, along with maturing certificates of deposit that were neither renewed nor converted to non-maturity deposits. Total assets decreased slightly in the quarter to $1.74 billion from $1.75 billion.
•Stockholders’ equity as a percent of total assets was 9.82% at December 31, 2021, compared to 9.46% at September 30, 2021. Tangible common equity (“TCE”) as a percent of tangible assets (non-GAAP)5 was 7.95% at December 31, 2021, compared to 7.58% at September 30, 2021. Record quarterly income and a modest decrease in assets drove the growth in the TCE ratio. Risk-based capital ratios remained flat, as risk-based capital generated from our net income and investment sales offset the impact of loan growth.
•As of December 31, 2021, approximately 373 thousand shares remain available for repurchase under the share repurchase authorization. “We continue to balance the positive effect on earnings per share accretion with the need for capital to support loan growth and the impact on the TCE ratio and regulatory capital ratios. Maintaining our risk-based capital ratio led to very modest stock buybacks in the quarter. The Company had a net reduction in shares outstanding of 554 thousand due to the buyback in 2021,” said James Broucek, Executive Vice President and CFO.
•No loan loss provision was realized during the quarters ended December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, due to lower CARES Act Section 4013 deferrals, low net charge-off or low net recoveries, decreases in criticized assets and improving economic conditions in our markets. Our two MSA unemployment rates were under 2% for November 2021, which ranks in the lowest 10% of all United States MSA and down from the 4% range seen in November 2020. This has led to improving trends for businesses most impacted by the pandemic and allowed the Company to reduce its general economic Q-Factor allocation in its allowance calculation. Further reductions in loans deferred under Section 4013 of the CARES Act and improvements in our markets’ business activities due to the timing and efficacy of vaccinations, and related impact on consumer behavior and business activities may allow further reductions in this economic Q-Factor.
•The Bank’s COVID-19 related modifications under Section 4013 of the CARES Act decreased to $6.6 million, or 0.5% of gross loans at December 31, 2021, versus $20.6 million, or 1.6% of gross loans at September 30, 2021. At December 31, 2021, hotel industry sector loans represent $6.0 million of the approved deferrals.

•The allowance for loan losses on originated loans, excluding SBA PPP loans, decreased to 1.43% at December 31, 2021, from 1.54% at September 30, 2021, due to loan growth and no provision for loan losses. Since SBA PPP loans are guaranteed by the SBA, they are excluded from this reserve calculation. The allowance for loan losses to total loans decreased to 1.29% at December 31, 2021, down from 1.35% at September 30, 2021, and 1.38% at December 31, 2020. Additionally, loans resulting from Bank acquisitions were effectively marked to market value at the time of their acquisition and were also excluded from this reserve calculation.
•Nonperforming assets increased $1.1 million to $13.2 million at December 31, 2021, compared to $12.1 million one quarter earlier. This increase was due to a transfer of a closed acquired bank branch to OREO, on which we have a purchase agreement from a non-financial institution supporting the carrying value of $1.4 million. The Bank was able to construct a new, smaller facility that supports the Bank’s needs on this site.
•Substandard loans decreased $4.3 million to $22.8 million at December 31, 2021, compared to $27.1 million at September 30, 2021. The decrease was largely due to the payoff of a $3.0 million accruing substandard TDR loan.
•On January 27, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a 13% increase in the annual cash dividend to $0.26 per share. The dividend will be payable on February 28, 2022 to the shareholders of record on February 14, 2022.
Balance Sheet and Asset Quality
Total assets decreased $13.8 million during the quarter to $1.74 billion at December 31, 2021, compared to $1.75 billion at September 30, 2021. The modest decline was due to lower deposit levels, which reduced excess liquidity.
Securities available for sale decreased $31.3 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2021 to $203.1 million, from $234.4 million at September 30, 2021. This decrease was primarily due to the sale of $28.6 million of securities, primarily consisting of lower yielding trust preferred securities issued by large bank holding companies, and senior debt of large bank holding companies along with the amortization on agency securities. The decrease was partially offset by $6.7 million in purchases of subordinated debt issued by banks.
Securities held to maturity increased $3.4 million to $71.1 million during the quarter ended December 31, 2021, from $67.7 million at September 30, 2021, primarily due to a net increase in agency mortgage-backed securities as purchases exceeded principal reductions.
Loans receivable increased by $62.3 million to $1.311 billion at December 31, 2021, from $1.249 billion as of September 30, 2021. The originated loan portfolio, before SBA PPP loans, increased $101.6 million in the quarter. The growth was largely in commercial real estate and multifamily loans, with agricultural and C&I loans also showing modest growth. Acquired loans decreased by $18.3 million and total SBA PPP loans decreased $22.5 million during the current quarter.
The allowance for loan losses was $16.9 million at December 31, 2021, representing 1.29% of total loans receivable compared to $16.8 million at September 30, 2021, representing 1.35% of total loans receivable. Approximately 15% of the loan portfolio, excluding SBA loans at December 31, 2021, consists of loans purchased through whole bank acquisitions resulting in these loans being recorded at fair market value at acquisition. The allowance for loan losses allocated to originated loans as a percent of originated loans excluding SBA PPP loans was 1.43% at December 31, 2021, compared to 1.54% at September 30, 2021, with the decrease due to growth in the originated loan portfolio. For the quarter ended December 31, 2021, the Bank had modest net recoveries of $81 thousand.

Nonperforming assets increased to $13.2 million or 0.76% of total assets at December 31, 2021, compared to $12.1 million or 0.69% of total assets at September 30, 2021. This increase was due to the addition of $1.4 million in OREO related to the transfer of a closed acquired branch facility at its carrying value, which is supported by a current purchase agreement. The Bank was able to build and open a more appropriately sized branch on this site in the fourth quarter. Included in nonperforming assets at December 31, 2021, are $5.3 million of nonperforming loans acquired during recent whole-bank acquisitions and $1.4 million of OREO related to recent whole-bank acquisitions. Originated nonperforming assets were $6.5 million, or 0.37% of total assets for the most recent quarter. Over the past year, total criticized loans decreased 22% from $35.2 million at December 31, 2020, to $27.4 million at December 31, 2021. In the fourth quarter, a $3.0 million accruing substandard TDR loan was paid in full.

Deposits decreased $20.8 million to $1.388 billion at December 31, 2021, from $1.408 billion at September 30, 2021. As previously mentioned, the reduction in deposits was largely due to commercial depositors, who temporarily placed the net proceeds from sales of assets/businesses on deposit with the Bank the previous quarter and withdrew the sale proceeds during the current quarter. Certificates of deposit decreased $22.5 million in the fourth quarter with some of those maturing deposits moving to interest-bearing non-maturity deposits. The decrease in certificates of deposit was due to the Company choosing not to match higher rate local retail certificate competition, with some of these matured certificates being transferred to interest-bearing non-maturity deposits.
Review of Operations
Net interest income was $14.4 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to $13.7 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021, and $13.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. Compared to the third quarter, net interest income benefited from increases in: (1) average loan balances, due to strong loan growth;
4
(2) $0.3 million of non-recurring loan interest income; and (3) lower deposit costs, partially offset by lower accretion on SBA PPP debt forgiveness of $0.6 million.
The net interest margin (“NIM”) increased to 3.50% in the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to 3.34% for the third quarter ended September 30, 2021, and decreased from 3.51% for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. The increase in NIM from the third quarter is largely due to the growth in the higher yielding loan portfolio replacing lower yielding investment securities and lower yielding cash, approximately 8 basis points of one time loan interest income and lower deposit and borrowing costs. These positive influences on NIM were offset by lower net accretion of SBA PPP loans and purchase accretion.
In comparison to the quarter ended December 31, 2020, the current quarter NIM of 3.50% benefited from: (1) 30 basis points due to lower deposit costs; (2) 10 basis point improvement from replacing lower yielding cash; and (3) 4 basis points from increased SBA PPP net loan fee accretion. This increase was partially offset by decreases in NIM largely due to lower loan and investment yields due to reductions in market rates, and the increases in the balances of lower yielding investments.
The table below shows the impact of accretion related to purchased credit impaired loans and SBA PPP loans on interest income and NIM.

The Bank continued to manage deposit interest rates, primarily as interest rates on new and renewed certificates of deposit were lower than the previous quarter. At December 31, 2021, the Bank had approximately $64 million of certificate of deposit accounts (“CD’s”) maturing in the first quarter of 2022 with a weighted average cost of approximately 1.50% and $73 million of CD’s maturing in the second quarter of 2022 with a weighted average cost of approximately 1.50%. For all of 2022, there is approximately $179 million of maturing certificate of deposit accounts with a weighted average cost of approximately 1.35%. The approximate weighted average cost of new certificates in the fourth quarter of 2021 was below 0.3%.
Loan loss provisions were zero for the quarters ended December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2021, and $2.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. No loan loss provision was realized during the quarters ended December 31, 2021, and September 30, 2021, due to lower CARES Act Section 4013 deferrals, low net charge-off or recovery activity, decreases in criticized assets and improving economic conditions in our markets from the last quarter of 2020. Continued improving economic conditions in our markets, as evidenced by unemployment rates below 2% in our two largest population centers, have resulted in improving overall economic trends for businesses. For the twelve-months ended December 31, 2021, provision for loan losses was zero compared to $7.75 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, the qualitative factor impact on the provision for loan losses expense due to the impact of the pandemic was an increase of approximately $4.8 million, with the remaining provision split due to loan growth and changes in credit quality.
Non-interest income increased to $4.4 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2021, compared to $3.4 million in the quarter ended September 30, 2021, and decreased from $4.8 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2020. The increase in the fourth quarter compared to the third quarter was largely due to an increase in gain on sale of investment securities of $0.9 million and a $0.3 million increase in gain on sale of loans. The sale of securities helped fund loan growth and decreased 100% risk-weighted AFS investment securities. Relative to the comparable quarter one year earlier, non-interest income was lower as a result of the following factors: (1) lower gain on sale of loans; (2) lower
6
loan servicing income; and (3) lower loan fees and service charges. These decreases were partially offset by higher gains on the sale of investment securities.
Total non-interest expense increased $0.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 to $10.5 million, compared to $10.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, and decreased from $10.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2020. The increase from the third quarter was largely due to: (1) an increase in compensation, as incentives increased based on performance, including strong loan origination; (2) an increase in advertising, marketing and public relations as the Bank provided contributions to support community projects; and (3) higher mortgage servicing rights expensed due to lower reversals of previously recorded MSR impairment in the fourth quarter of $0.15 million compared to $0.38 million in the third quarter. The increases were partially offset by lower data processing expenses due to one-time credits recognized in the fourth quarter. The decrease in non-interest expense from the fourth quarter of 2020 was due to the reversal of MSR impairment in the fourth quarter of 2021 and a modest MSR impairment recorded in the fourth quarter of 2020. This was partially offset by $0.6 million of higher compensation in the current quarter due to higher incentives discussed above which more than offset the reduction in full time equivalent employees from a year ago.
Provisions for income taxes increased to $2.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 from the third quarter of 2021 at $1.8 million, due to higher pre-tax income as the effective tax rate for both current year quarters was 26.7%. The effective tax rate was 25.9% for the comparable prior year quarter.
These financial results are preliminary until the Form 10-K is filed in March 2022.

factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements and are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements. Such uncertainties and other risks that may affect the Company’s performance are discussed further in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” in the Company’s Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 8, 2021 and the Company’s subsequent filings with the SEC. The Company undertakes no obligation to make any revisions to the forward-looking statements contained in this news release or to update them to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this release.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, such as net income as adjusted, net income as adjusted per share, tangible book value, tangible book value per share, tangible common equity as a percent of tangible assets, return on average tangible common equity and return on average tangible common equity as adjusted, which management believes may be helpful in understanding the Company’s results of operations or financial position and comparing results over different periods.
Net income as adjusted and net income as adjusted per share are non-GAAP measures that eliminate the impact of certain expenses such as acquisition and branch closure costs and related data processing termination fees, legal costs, severance pay, accelerated depreciation expense and lease termination fees, the gain on sale of branch deposits and fixed assets and the net impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, which management believes enhances investors’ ability to better understand the underlying business performance and trends related to core business activities. Merger related charges represent expenses to either satisfy contractual obligations of acquired entities without any useful benefit to the Company or to convert and consolidate customer records onto the Company platforms. These costs are unique to each transaction based on the contracts in existence at the merger date. Tangible book value, tangible book value per share, tangible common equity as a percent of tangible assets and return on average tangible common equity are non-GAAP measures that eliminate the impact of preferred stock equity, goodwill, and intangible assets on our financial position. Management believes these measures are useful in assessing the strength of our financial position.
Where non-GAAP financial measures are used, the comparable GAAP financial measure, as well as the reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure, can be found in this press release. These disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other banks and financial institutions.
