First Quarter 2024 Highlights

Period end deposits increased $103.5 million, or 25% annualized, from December 31, 2023, and $139.8 million, or 9%, from March 31, 2023.

Taxable equivalent net interest margin⁽¹⁾ was 3.54% in the first quarter of 2024, compared to 3.49% in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Loans increased $42.4 million, or 10% annualized, from December 31, 2023, and $218.5 million, or 14%, from March 31, 2023.

Annualized net charge-offs to average loans totaled 0.0% for the first quarter of 2024 and the fourth quarter of 2023. Nonperforming assets to total assets was 0.06% as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Book value per share was $21.41, an increase of $0.14, or 1%, from December 31, 2023 and an increase of $1.84, or 9%, from March 31, 2023.

"We are pleased with our solid start to 2024, with the focus of strengthening our balance sheet and improving our performance metrics. Our first quarter results include deposit growth of $104 million and loan growth of $42 million. This strong growth, along with the steps we took in the fourth quarter made an impact in both areas. Our net interest margin was 3.54% in the first quarter and has now expanded 18 basis points from the third quarter of 2023. Credit quality continues to remain strong with no net charge-offs in the first quarter and nonperforming assets totaling only 6 basis points of total loans," said Mark Mordell, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

"Our bankers along with our enhanced treasury management team have been focused on increasing our revenue growth over the last several quarters. This has resulted in the 52% increase in service charge and foreign exchange fee income since the first quarter of 2023," added Mr. Mordell.

Income Statement

Taxable equivalent net interest income⁽¹⁾ totaled $18.9 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $465,000, or 3%, from the fourth quarter of 2023, and a decrease of $1.2 million, or 6%, from the first quarter of 2023. The taxable equivalent net interest margin was 3.54% in the first quarter of 2024, an increase of 5 basis points compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, and a decrease of 39 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2023. The increase in taxable equivalent net interest income and net interest margin compared to the prior quarter was primarily driven by an overall increase in loan balances and a decrease in investment securities. The decrease in taxable equivalent net interest margin compared to the same period one year ago was primarily driven by an increase in high-cost short-term borrowings replacing lower-cost deposits, interest bearing deposits replacing no-cost demand deposits, and an overall increase in deposit costs, partially offset by an increase in loan yields and average loan balances.

The yield on loans in the first quarter of 2024 was 7.28%, an increase of 3 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2023 and an increase of 61 basis points from the first quarter of 2023. The overall increase in loan yields compared to prior periods was primarily due to higher rates on new loans.

The cost of deposits in the first quarter of 2024 was 2.81%, an increase of 10 basis points from the fourth quarter of 2023 and an increase of 142 basis points from the first quarter of 2023. The cost of interest-bearing deposits in the first quarter of 2024 was 3.90% compared to 3.80% in the fourth quarter of 2023 and 2.38% in the first quarter of 2023. The increase in the cost of deposits compared to prior periods was primarily due to higher costs on new deposit accounts.

The provision for credit losses was $319,000 in the first quarter of 2024, compared to $1.27 million in the fourth quarter of 2023 and $185,000 in the first quarter of 2023. The provision decreased in the current quarter primarily due to an improving economic forecast in the first quarter of 2024 and lower relative loan growth compared to the fourth quarter of 2023. The provision for credit losses in the first quarter of 2024 included a $211,000 provision for credit losses on loans and a $108,000 provision for unfunded commitments.

Noninterest income was $1.3 million in the first quarter of 2024 compared to $(4.6) million in the fourth quarter of 2023 and $5,000 in the first quarter of 2023. The fourth quarter of 2023 included a $5.40 million loss on sale of securities, a $165,000 loss on the sale of a foreclosed property, and a loss of $116,000 from changes in the fair value of fund investments. The first quarter of 2023 included an $815,000 loss on the sale of securities.

Noninterest expense totaled $12.4 million for the first quarter of 2024, an increase of $877,000 compared to the fourth quarter of 2023. Much of the increase was due to seasonally higher FICA taxes and incentive expense. Salaries and benefits expense for the fourth quarter of 2023 included severance charges of $324,000. There were 141 full-time equivalent employees on March 31, 2024, compared to 143 on December 31, 2023.
