BayCom Corp Reports 2023 Second Quarter Earnings of $7.2 Million
WALNUT CREEK, CA, July 26, 2023--(Business Wire) BayCom Corp (“BayCom” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BCML), the holding company for United Business Bank (the “Bank” or “UBB”), announced earnings of $7.2 million, or $0.59 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2023, compared to earnings of $7.2 million, or $0.57 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2023 and $3.9 million, or $0.29 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2022.
Net income for the second quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2023 increased $15,000, or 0.2%, primarily as a result of a $1.5 million decrease in provision for credit losses, reflecting a $1.3 million reversal of the allowance for credit losses for the current quarter compared to a $275,000 provision for credit losses during the first quarter of 2023, partially offset by a $976,000 decrease in net interest income and a $475,000 decrease in noninterest income. Net income for the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter 2022 increased $3.3 million, or 84.5%, primarily as a result of $1.1 million increase in net interest income, a $3.9 million decrease in provision for credit losses, a $906,000 increase in noninterest income, partially offset by a $1.3 million increase in noninterest expense and a $1.3 million increase in provision for income taxes.
Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 increased $5.3 million, or 57.6%, primarily as a result of a $4.0 million increase in net interest income, a $3.6 million decrease in provision for credit losses, reflecting a $985,000 reversal of the allowance for credit losses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 compared to a $2.6 million provision for credit losses for the same period in 2022, and a $445,000 decrease in noninterest expense, partially offset by a $164,000 decrease in noninterest income and a $2.7 million increase in provision for income taxes.
George Guarini, Founder, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our second quarter 2023 financial results are encouraging despite challenges facing the banking sector. Like other banks, we are seeing pressure on our net interest margin due to rising deposit costs; however, our credit quality and liquidity remain strong. Our office portfolio currently represents approximately 7% of total loans but, more importantly, has a weighted average loan to value of 52%, a strong debt coverage ratio and is performing well.”
Guarini concluded, “Our financial metrics reveal higher return on average equity, increased deposits and liquidity, and a decline in loan delinquencies over the prior quarter. Additionally, we have continued to build tangible book value through earnings and the repurchase of our shares at well below our tangible book value. Lastly, we believe that merger and acquisition opportunities may increase as banks recognize the benefits of consolidation in the current operating environment.”

Earnings
Net interest income decreased $976,000, or 3.9%, to $24.3 million for the second quarter of 2023 from $25.3 million in the prior quarter and increased $1.1 million, or 4.8%, from $23.2 million in the same quarter a year ago. The decrease in net interest income from the first quarter of 2023 reflects higher funding costs related to increased rates of interest on our deposits and junior subordinated debt due to higher market rates. The increase in net interest income from the same quarter in 2022 reflects increases in interest income on loans, cash and cash equivalents and, to a lesser extent, investment securities, including dividends on FRB and FHLB stock, partially offset by higher funding costs related to increased rates of interest on our deposits and junior subordinated debt. Average interest-earning assets increased $28.2 million, or 1.1%, and decreased $171.6 million, or 6.28% for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2023 and the second quarter of 2022, respectively. Average yield (annualized) on interest earning assets for the second quarter of 2023 was 5.18%, compared to 5.07% for the first quarter of 2023 and 3.97% for the second quarter of 2022. The increase in average yields on interest-earning assets during the current quarter reflects increases in market interest rates due to recent increases in the target range for federal funds, including a 75 basis point increase during the first six months of 2023, to a range of 5.00% to 5.25%. The average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities for second quarter of 2023 was 1.82 %, compared to 1.35% for the first quarter of 2023, and 0.62% for the second quarter of 2022.
Interest income on loans, including fees, increased $412,000, or 1.6%, to $26.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, primarily due to a $37.1 million increase in the average loan balance and a 4 basis point increase in the average loan yield. Interest income on loans, including fees, increased $3.7 million, or 16.0%, for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2022 primarily due to a 66 basis point increase in the average loan yield and a $31.7 million increase in the average loan balance. The average loan balance totaled $2.0 billion for the second quarter of 2023, first quarter of 2023 and the same quarter a year ago. The average yield on loans was 5.28% for the second quarter of 2023, compared to 5.24% for the first quarter of 2023 and 4.62% for the second quarter of 2022. The increase in the average yield on loans from the first quarter of 2023 and the second quarter of 2022 was due to the impact of increased rates on variable rate loans as well as new loans being originated at higher market interest rates. This increase was partially offset by a $92,000 decrease in accretion of the net discount on acquired loans and a $91,000 decrease in Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan fees recognized when compared to
2
the first quarter of 2023, and a $1.3 million decrease in accretion of the net discount on acquired loans and a $351,000 decrease in PPP loan fees recognized when compared to the second quarter of 2022.
Interest income on loans included $5,000, $97,000, and $198,000 in accretion of the net discount on acquired loans for the three months ended June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023, and June 30, 2022, respectively. The balance of the net discounts on these acquired loans totaled $331,000, $371,000, and $481,000 at June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023, and June 30, 2022, respectively. Interest income included minimal fees earned related to PPP loans in the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to $91,000 in the first quarter of 2023, and $351,000 in the second quarter of 2022. Interest income also included fees related to prepayment penalties of $48,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 2023, compared to $269,000 in the first quarter of 2023, and $487,000 in the second quarter of 2022.
Interest income on investment securities increased $53,000, or 3.2%, to $1.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to $1.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and increased $162,000, or 10.6%, from $1.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Average yield on investment securities increased 47 basis points to 3.99% for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to 3.52% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and increased 77 basis points from 3.21% for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The average balance on investment securities totaled $170.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $189.0 million and $191.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively.
Interest income on federal funds sold and interest-bearing balances in banks increased $731,000, or 40.0%, to $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $1.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and increased $1.8 million, or 217.7%, from $806,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as a result of an increase in the average yield. The average yield on federal funds sold and interest-bearing balances in banks increased 58 basis points to 5.14% for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to 4.56% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and increased 430 basis points from 0.84% for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The average balance of federal funds sold and interest-bearing balance in banks totaled $199.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $162.8 million and $383.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022, respectively. In addition, during the second quarter of 2023, we received $340,000 in cash dividends on our FRB and FHLB stock, up 2.4% from $332,000 in the first quarter of 2023 and up 25.9% from $270,000 in the second quarter in 2022.
Interest expense increased $2.2 million, or 45.4%, to $7.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $4.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and increased $4.5 million, or 184.6%, compared to $2.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, reflecting higher funding costs related to increased market rates of interest on our deposits and junior subordinated debt. Average balance of deposits totaled $2.1 billion for both the second quarter of 2023 and the first quarter of 2023, compared to $2.3 billion for the second quarter of 2022. The average cost of funds for the second quarter of 2023 was 1.82%, compared to 1.35% for first quarter of 2023 and 0.62% for the second quarter in 2022. The increase in the average cost of funds during the current quarter compared to the prior quarter was due to higher interest rates paid on money market and time deposits due to increased competition and pricing pressures and a change in deposit mix due to shift of deposits from noninterest bearing accounts to higher costing money market and time deposits. The average cost of total deposits for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was 1.10%, compared to 0.71% for the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 0.25% for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The average balance of noninterest bearing deposits decreased $64.5 million, or 8.7%, to $677.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023, compared to $742.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and decreased $111.4 million, or 14.1%, compared to $788.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Interest expense on junior subordinated debt was $203,000 for both the three months ended June 30, 2023 and the three months ended March 31, 2023, up $99,000, or 95.2%, from $104,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, due to higher market rates.
Annualized net interest margin was 4.02% for the second quarter of 2023, compared to 4.26% for the first quarter of 2023 and 3.59% for second quarter of 2022. The average yield on interest earning assets for the second quarter of 2023 increased 11 basis points and 121 basis points over the average yields for the first of 2023 and the second quarter of 2022, respectively, while the average rate paid on interest-bearing liabilities for second quarter of 2023 increased 47 basis points and 120 basis points over the average rates paid for the first quarter of 2023 and the second quarter of 2022, respectively. Net interest margin in the second quarter of 2023 was negatively impacted by higher funding costs outpacing increasing yields on loans, investment securities and fed funds sold and interest bearing-balances in banks.
3
The average yield on PPP loans, including the recognition of deferred PPP loan fees, was 1.00%, resulting in a minimal negative impact to the net interest margin during the second quarter of 2023, compared to an average yield of 5.98%, with positive impact to net interest margin of two basis points, during the prior quarter of 2023, and an average yield of 2.55%, with a positive impact to the net interest margin of seven basis points during the same quarter in 2022. Accretion of the net discount on acquired loans did not affect the average yield on loans during the second quarter of 2023, compared to increases of seven basis points during the prior quarter of 2023 and six basis points during the same quarter of 2022. At June 30, 2023, there was a total of $4.9 million of PPP loans outstanding, with a minimal amount of unrecognized deferred fees and costs.
Based on our review of the allowance for credit losses for loans at June 30, 2023, the Company recorded a $1.3 million reversal of the allowance for credit losses for loans for the second quarter of 2023, compared to a $275,000 provision for credit losses and a $2.6 million provision for loan losses in the prior quarter of 2023 and the same quarter in 2022, respectively. The reversal of the allowance for credit losses for loans in the second quarter of 2023 was primarily due to improvements in forecasted economic conditions, specifically, national gross domestic product and national unemployment, indicators utilized to estimate credit losses and, to a lesser extent, a decrease in outstanding loan balances and $60,000 in net charge-offs during the second quarter of 2023.
Noninterest income for the second quarter of 2023 decreased $475,000, or 30.4%, to $1.1 million compared to $1.6 million in the prior quarter of 2023 and increased $906,000, or 503.3%, compared to $180,000 for the same quarter in 2022. The decrease in noninterest income for the current quarter compared to the prior quarter of 2023 was primarily due to a $344,000 decrease in gain on sale of SBA loans (guaranteed portion), generally due to a decrease in the volume of these loans sold during the current quarter, and a $264,000 decrease in income from our investment in a Small Business Investment Company (“SBIC”) fund, partially offset by a $183,000 increase in loan servicing fees and other fees. The increase in noninterest income for the current quarter compared to the same quarter in 2022 was primarily due to a $924,000 lower decline in fair value adjustments on equity securities, a $204,000 increase in loan servicing fees and other fees and a $164,000 increase in service charges and other fees, partially offset by a $231,000 decrease in gain on sale of loans due to a decrease in the volume of premiums observed on SBA loans (guaranteed portion) sold and a $141,000 decrease in other income and fees.
Noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2023 increased $28,000, or 0.2%, to $16.6 million compared to $16.5 million for the prior quarter of 2023 and increased $1.4 million, or 8.9%, compared to $15.2 million for the same quarter in 2022. The increase in noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2023 compared to the prior quarter of 2023 was primarily due to a $221,000 increase in other noninterest expense due to a $216,000 increase in FDIC insurance assessments and $151,000 increase in data processing expense due to a decline in pricing credits offered. These increases were partially offset by a $291,000 decrease in salaries and employee benefits expense as a result of decline in other benefits expense and a $53,000 decrease in occupancy and equipment expense due to lower depreciation and property maintenance expense. The increase in noninterest expense for the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022 was primarily due to a $1.5 million increase in salary and employee benefits expense due to a reduction in deferred loan origination expenses and higher salary expenses due to wage increases and increase in full-time equivalent employees and a $54,000 increase in occupancy and equipment expense, partially offset by a $125,000 decrease in other noninterest expense due to lower deposit intangible amortization and a $50,000 decrease in data processing expense due to higher core systems costs.
The provision for income taxes increased $41,000, or 1.5%, to $2.9 million for the second quarter of 2023 compared to $2.8 million for the prior quarter of 2023 and increased $1.3 million, or 78.2%, to $1.6 million compared to the same quarter in 2022. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2023 was 28.4%, compared to 28.2% for the prior quarter of 2023, and 29.1% for the same quarter in 2022. The effective tax rate was lower for the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same quarter in 2022 due to higher capitalization of non-deductible merger related costs during the second quarter of 2022.
Loans and Credit Quality
Loans, net of deferred fees, decreased $31.2 million from the prior quarter-end and totaled $2.0 billion at both June 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, and increased $8.3 million compared to $2.0 billion at June 30, 2022. The decrease in loans at June 30, 2023 compared to March 31, 2023 primarily was due to $34.3 million of new loan originations, which was more
4
than offset by $65.1 million of loan repayments, including $997,000 in PPP loan repayments. At June 30, 2023, there was a total of $4.9 million PPP loans outstanding compared to $5.9 million at March 31, 2023, and $68.8 million at June 30, 2022.
Nonperforming loans, consisting of non-accrual loans and accruing loans 90 days or more past due, totaled $12.8 million or 0.64% of total loans at June 30, 2023, compared to $13.1 million or 0.64% of total loans at March 31, 2023, and $10.7 million or 0.53% of total loans at June 30, 2022. The decrease in nonperforming loans from the prior quarter-end was primarily due to the renewal of one loan during the current quarter totaling $934,000, which was 90 days or more past due and in the process of collection at March 31, 2023, and the charge-off of one non-accrual loan totaling $125,000 during the current quarter. The portion of nonaccrual loans guaranteed by government agencies totaled $801,000, $818,000 and $780,000 at June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023 and June 31, 2022, respectively. There were no loans, one loan totaling $934,000, and one loan totaling $255,000, 90 days or more past due and still accruing and in the process of collection at June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023, and June 30, 2022 respectively. Accruing loans past due between 30 and 89 days at June 30, 2023, were $1.6 million, compared to $12.4 million at March 31, 2023, and $6.8 million at June 30, 2022. The decrease in accruing loans past due between 30-89 days from the prior quarter-end was primarily due to timing of borrower payments.
At June 30, 2023, the Company’s allowance for credit losses for loans was $19.1 million, or 0.95% of total loans, compared to $20.4 million, or 1.0% of total loans, at March 31, 2023 and $17.8 million, or 0.89% of total loans, at June 30, 2022. We recorded net charge-offs of $60,000 for the second quarter of 2023, compared to net charge-offs of $315,000 in the prior quarter of 2023 and net charge-offs of $2.5 million in the same quarter of 2022.
In accordance with acquisition accounting, acquired loans were recorded at their estimated fair value, which resulted in a net discount to the loans’ contractual amounts. Credit discounts are included in the determination of fair value and as a result, no allowance for credit losses is recorded for acquired loans at the acquisition date. However, the allowance for credit losses includes an estimate for credit deterioration of acquired loans that occurs after the date of acquisition, which is included in the loan loss provision in the period that the deterioration occurred. The discount recorded on the acquired loans is not reflected in the allowance for credit losses on loans or the related allowance coverage ratios. As of June 30, 2023, acquired loans net of their discount totaled $234.7 million with a remaining net discount on these loans of $331,000, compared to $247.9 million of acquired loans with a remaining net discount of $371,000 at March 31, 2023, and $330.3 million of acquired loans with a remaining net discount of $481,000 at June 30, 2022. The net discount includes a credit discount based on estimated losses in the acquired loans partially offset by a premium, if any, based market interest rates on the date of acquisition.
Deposits and Borrowings
Deposits totaled $2.1 billion at both June 30, 2023, and March 31, 2023, compared to $2.3 billion at June 30, 2022. The deposit mix shifted, in part, due to interest rate sensitive clients moving a portion of their non-operating deposit balances from lower costing deposits, including noninterest bearing deposits, into higher costs money market and time deposits. At June 30, 2023, noninterest bearing deposits totaled $664.1 million, or 30.9% of total deposits, compared to $705.9 million, or 33.2% of total deposits at March 31, 2023, and $789.3 million, or 35.0% of total deposits at June 30, 2022.
Our business, balance sheet and depositor profile differ substantially from the banking institutions that have been the focus of the recent bank failures. We consider our deposit base to be seasoned, stable and well-diversified, and we do not have any significant industry concentrations among our non-insured deposits. We also offer an insured cash sweep product (ICS) that allows customers to insure deposits above FDIC insurance limits. At June 30, 2023, our average deposit account size (excluding public funds), calculated by dividing period-end deposits by the population of accounts with balances, was approximately $58,000.
At both June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, the Company had outstanding junior subordinated debt, net of fair value adjustments, related to junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures assumed in connection with its previous acquisitions totaling $8.5 million, compared to $8.4 million at June 30, 2022. At both June 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, the Company also had outstanding subordinated debt, net of costs to issue, totaling $63.8 million, compared to $63.6 million at June 30, 2022.

At June 30, 2023, March 31, 2023 and June 30, 2022, the Company had no other borrowings outstanding.

Shareholders’ equity totaled $307.0 million at June 30, 2023, compared to $313.5 million at March 31, 2023, and $320.6 million at June 30, 2022. The decrease at June 30, 2023 reflects repurchases of $9.1 million of common stock, $1.2 million of accrued cash dividends payable and a $3.6 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss, net of taxes, during the current quarter, partially offset by $7.2 million of net income during the current quarter. In addition, shareholder’s equity was negatively impacted by the adoption of CECL in the first quarter of 2023, which resulted in an after-tax decrease to opening retained earnings of $491,000. At June 30, 2023, 133,960 shares remained available for future purchases under the Company’s current stock repurchase plan.

Forward-looking statements are not historical facts but instead are based on current beliefs and expectations of the Company’s management and are inherently subject to significant business, economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. In addition, these forward-looking statements are subject to assumptions with respect to future business strategies and decisions that are subject to change.
There are a number of factors that could cause future results to differ materially from historical performance and these forward-looking statements. Factors which could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated or implied by our forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to: potential adverse impacts to economic conditions in our local market areas, other markets where the Company has lending relationships, or other aspects of the Company’s business operations or financial markets, including, without limitation, as a result of employment levels, labor shortages and the effects of inflation, a potential recession or slowed economic growth caused by increasing political instability from acts of war including Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, as well as supply chain disruptions; higher inflation and current and future monetary policies of the Federal Reserve in response thereto; the impact of bank failures or adverse developments at other banks and related negative press about the banking industry in general on investor and depositor sentiment; review of the Company’s accounting, accounting policies and internal control over financial reporting; risks and uncertainties related to the recent restatement of certain of our historical consolidated financial statements; the subsequent discovery of additional adjustments to the Company’s previously issued financial statements; expected revenues, cost savings, synergies and other benefits from our recent acquisition of Pacific Enterprise Bancorp might not be realized within the expected time frames or at all and costs or difficulties relating to integration matters, including but not limited to customer and employee retention, might be greater than expected; future acquisitions by the Company of other depository institutions or lines of business; fluctuations in interest rates; the risks of lending and investing activities, including changes in the level and direction of loan delinquencies and write-offs and changes in estimates of the adequacy of the allowance for credit losses; the Company's ability to access cost-effective funding; fluctuations in real estate values and both residential and commercial real estate market conditions; demand for loans and deposits in the Company's market area; increased competitive pressures; changes in management’s business strategies; and other factors described in the Company’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other filings with the

The Company does not undertake - and specifically declines any obligation - to publicly release the result of any revisions, that may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of such statements or to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by law or NASDAQ rules.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:
In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles utilized in the United States (“GAAP”), this earnings release contains the tangible book value per share, a non-GAAP financial measure. Tangible book value per share is calculated by dividing tangible common shareholders’ equity by the number of common shares outstanding at the end of the period. Tangible common shareholders’ equity excludes intangible assets from shareholders’ equity. For this financial measure, the Company’s intangible assets are goodwill and core deposit intangibles. The Company believes that this measure is consistent with the capital treatment by our bank regulatory agencies, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios, and presents this measure to facilitate comparison of the quality and composition of the Company’s capital over time in comparison to its peers. Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Further, these non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Reconciliation of the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures is presented below:
