ALBEMARLE, N.C., Feb. 28, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Uwharrie Capital Corp (OTCQX: UWHR) and its subsidiary, Uwharrie Bank, reported consolidated total assets of $1.02 billion at December 31, 2022, versus $939.7 million at December 31, 2021.
Net income for the twelve-month period ended December 31, 2022, was $8.2 million versus $10.1 million for the same period in 2021. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, net income available to common shareholders was $7.7 million, or $1.08 per diluted share, compared to $9.5 million, or $1.29 per diluted share, for December 31, 2021. Net income available to common shareholders takes into consideration the payment of dividends on preferred stock issued by the Company.
The key driver of the reduction in earnings year-over-year is primarily attributable to the reduction in income from mortgage banking as a result of the drastically increasing interest rate environment, causing a significant slow-down in mortgage originations and virtually no re-finance incentive for homeowners.
