Affinity Bancshares (NASDAQ:AFBI) reported net income of $5.4 million for 2024, down from $6.4 million in 2023. Fourth quarter 2024 net income was $1.3 million, compared to $1.5 million in Q4 2023. The decrease was primarily due to increased noninterest expenses related to a terminated merger.

Key financial metrics include: Total assets increased to $866.8 million (up $23.6 million YoY); Total gross loans grew by $54.2 million to $714.1 million; Net interest margin improved to 3.54% from 3.35% in 2023. The bank's efficiency ratio increased to 76.20% from 71.86% year-over-year.

Affinity Bancshares (NASDAQ:AFBI) ha riportato un utile netto di 5,4 milioni di dollari per il 2024, in calo rispetto ai 6,4 milioni di dollari nel 2023. L'utile netto del quarto trimestre 2024 è stato di 1,3 milioni di dollari, rispetto ai 1,5 milioni di dollari nel quarto trimestre 2023. Il calo è stato principalmente dovuto all'aumento delle spese non correlate agli interessi legate a una fusione annullata.

I principali indicatori finanziari includono: Attività totali aumentate a 866,8 milioni di dollari (in aumento di 23,6 milioni di dollari rispetto all'anno precedente); Prestiti lordi totali cresciuti di 54,2 milioni di dollari fino a 714,1 milioni di dollari; Margine di interesse netto migliorato al 3,54% rispetto al 3,35% del 2023. Il rapporto di efficienza della banca è aumentato al 76,20% rispetto al 71,86% anno su anno.

La disminución se debió principalmente al aumento de los gastos no relacionados con intereses relacionados con una fusión cancelada.

Der Nettogewinn im vierten Quartal 2024 betrug 1,3 Millionen Dollar im Vergleich zu 1,5 Millionen Dollar im Q4 2023.

Insights

The financial results reveal a complex picture of Affinity Bancshares' performance and strategic positioning. While headline net income declined 15.6% year-over-year to $5.4M, the adjusted operating income showed improvement at $6.8M, indicating underlying business strength when excluding merger-related costs.

Notable strategic moves include the sale of $10.4M in low-yielding investment securities (sub-3% yield), demonstrating proactive balance sheet management to enhance returns. This resulted in improved net interest margin of 3.54%, up 19 basis points year-over-year, outperforming many peers in the current rate environment.

Asset quality metrics show significant improvement, with the allowance coverage ratio of non-performing loans strengthening to 177.9% from 120.1%. However, the increase in net charge-offs to $650,000 from $404,000 warrants monitoring, though still manageable at 0.09% of total loans.

The bank's growth strategy appears sound with $54.2M in loan growth, particularly in construction and commercial sectors. The conservative 46.8% LTV on office exposure ($44.2M) provides cushion against commercial real estate concerns. Capital levels remain healthy with tangible equity to tangible assets improving to 13.08%.

However, the efficiency ratio deterioration to 76.20% signals potential challenges in cost management, though this is partly attributed to merger-related expenses. The slight deposit outflow of $1.0M and increased reliance on borrowings ($18.8M increase) suggests some pressure on funding costs that could impact future margins.

Net Income

  • Net income was $5.4 million for year ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $6.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023, as a result of an increase in noninterest expenses related to the recently terminated merger partially offset by an increase in net interest income. Operating income for the year ended December 31, 2024 was $6.8 million as compared to $6.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
  • Net income was $1.3 million for three months ended December 31, 2024 as compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023, as a result of a decrease in noninterest income from the loss on sale of $10.4 million in investment securities available-for-sale that were yielding an weighted average rate under 3.00% allowing for investment in higher yielding loans and an increase in noninterest expenses partially offset by an increase in net interest income. Operating income for the three months ended December 31, 2024 was $1.7 million as compared to $1.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023.

Results of Operations

  • Net interest income was $7.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 compared to $6.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023. The increase was due to an increase in interest income on loans, partially offset by a rise in deposit and borrowing costs and a decrease in interest income on interest-earning deposits.
  • Net interest margin for the three months ended December 31, 2024 increased to 3.56% from 3.32% for the three months ended December 31, 2023. The increase in the margin relates to increases in our yield on earning assets exceeding our increases in our deposits and borrowing costs.

  • Net interest income was $28.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to $27.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase was due to an increase in interest income on loans and investment securities, partially offset by a rise in deposit and borrowing costs and a decrease in interest income on interest-earning deposits.
  • Net interest margin for the year ended December 31, 2024 increased to 3.54% from 3.35% for the year ended December 31, 2023. The increase in the margin relates to increases in our yield on earning assets exceeding our increases in our deposits and borrowing costs.
  • Provision for credit losses was $438,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to negative provision of $42,000 for the year ended December 31, 2023.
  • Noninterest income decreased $451,000 to $2.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, as a result of the loss on securities available-for-sale recorded in the fourth quarter.
  • Non-interest expense increased $2.4 million to $23.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024 compared to 2023, due to increases in professional fees related to our merger expenses and increases in salaries and employee benefits.

Financial Condition

  • Total gross loans increased $54.2 million to $714.1 million at December 31, 2024 from $659.9 million at December 31, 2023. The increase was due to steady loan demand in construction, commercial non-owner occupied properties, commercial and consumer loans.
  • Non-owner occupied office loans totaled $44.2 million at December 31, 2024; the average LTV on these loans is 46.8%, including
    • $17.4 million medical/dental tenants and
