Insights

Broadway Financial 's Q2 2024 results show a mixed performance with some positive trends but ongoing challenges. The company reported $269,000 in net earnings ($0.03 per diluted share), a slight improvement from Q2 2023. Key highlights include:

Net interest income increased by $650,000 (8.9%) to $7.9 million, driven by higher interest income from loans.
Total interest income grew by $3.8 million (33.1%), with yield on average interest-earning assets rising 67 basis points to 4.71%.
Gross loans receivable increased by $59 million (6.6%) to $946.8 million.
Deposits grew by $4.7 million to $687.4 million.

However, the company faces ongoing challenges:

Net interest margin compressed to 2.41% from 2.52% in Q2 2023, due to higher funding costs.
Non-interest expenses increased by $859,000 (13.4%), primarily due to higher compensation and benefits expenses.
Year-to-date net earnings decreased significantly to $105,000 from $1.8 million in the first half of 2023.

The company's focus on serving low-to-moderate income communities and its strong capital position (20.6% of total assets) provide a solid foundation. However, investors should monitor the impact of rising interest rates on the company's net interest margin and overall profitability.

Broadway Financial's Q2 2024 results reflect the broader challenges facing the banking industry, particularly for smaller, community-focused institutions. The company's performance highlights several key industry trends:

Interest rate sensitivity: The rapid rise in interest rates has led to margin compression, with Broadway's cost of funds increasing faster than asset yields. This is a common issue for banks in the current environment.
Loan growth focus: Broadway's 6.6% loan growth demonstrates a strategy to offset margin pressure through volume. This approach is being adopted by many banks but carries potential credit risks if economic conditions deteriorate.
Deposit competition: The modest deposit growth of $4.7 million suggests increasing competition for funds. The use of ICS deposits indicates a focus on retaining larger depositors, a important strategy in the post-SVB environment.
Regulatory and compliance costs: The significant increase in non-interest expenses, particularly in compensation and professional services, reflects the growing regulatory burden on smaller banks.

Broadway's strong capital position (20.6% of assets) provides a buffer against potential headwinds, but the bank will need to carefully manage its growth and expenses to improve profitability. The focus on low-to-moderate income communities aligns with industry trends towards more inclusive banking but may present unique challenges in the current economic environment.

From a market perspective, Broadway Financial's Q2 2024 results present a nuanced picture for investors:

Growth potential: The 33.1% increase in total interest income and 6.6% loan growth demonstrate the company's ability to expand its business, which could be attractive to growth-oriented investors.
Profitability concerns: The compression in net interest margin and significant increase in non-interest expenses raise questions about the company's ability to translate growth into bottom-line results.
Market positioning: Broadway's focus on low-to-moderate income communities and its participation in the U.S. Treasury's Emergency Capital Investment Program differentiate it from larger, mainstream banks. This niche could be appealing to socially conscious investors.
Risk factors: The increase in uninsured deposits to 35% of total deposits, while an improvement from year-end, still represents a potential vulnerability in a volatile banking environment.
Valuation considerations: With a book value per share of $14.49, investors will need to weigh the company's growth potential against its current profitability challenges.

For the broader market, Broadway's results highlight the ongoing pressures on smaller banks and the potential for further industry consolidation. The company's ability to navigate the current interest rate environment and regulatory landscape will be important for its future performance and could serve as a bellwether for similar institutions.

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Broadway Financial Corporation (“Broadway” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BYFC), parent company of City First Bank, National Association (the “Bank”, and collectively, with the Company, “we” or “City First Broadway”), reported consolidated net earnings of $269 thousand, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2024, compared to consolidated net earnings of $243 thousand, or $0.03 per diluted share (adjusted for the 1-for-8 reverse stock split effective November 1, 2023), for the second quarter of 2023.

During the second quarter of 2024, net interest income increased by $650 thousand, or 8.9%, to $7.9 million, compared to the second quarter of 2023. The increase resulted from higher interest income of $3.8 million, primarily due to an increase in interest on loans, partially offset by higher interest expense of $3.2 million, which was primarily due to an increase in the cost of borrowings and deposits. During the second quarter of 2024, non-interest expense increased $859 thousand, or 13.4%, compared to the first quarter of 2024, mainly due to an increase of $735 thousand in compensation and benefits expense.

For the first six months of 2024, the Company reported consolidated net earnings of $105 thousand, or $0.01 per diluted share, compared to consolidated net earnings of $1.8 million, or $0.20 per diluted share (adjusted for the 1-for-8 reverse stock split effective November 1, 2023), for the first six months of 2023. The decrease primarily resulted from an increase in non-interest expense of $2.4 million during the first six months of 2024, compared to the first six months of 2023, primarily due to increases in compensation and benefits expense of $1.4 million and professional services expense of $861 thousand. Additionally, net interest income declined by $100 thousand as interest expense increased by $7.7 million, more than offsetting an increase of $7.6 million in interest income. These decreases were partially offset by a decrease in tax expense of $678 thousand during the first six months of 2024, compared to the first six months of 2023.

Second Quarter 2024 Highlights:

During the second quarter of 2024, total interest income increased by $3.8 million, or 33.1%, compared to the second quarter of 2023.
The yield on average interest-earning assets increased by 67 basis points to 4.71% for the second quarter of 2024, compared to 4.04% for the second quarter of 2023.
Total gross loans receivable increased by $59.0 million, or 6.6%, to $946.8 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $887.8 million at December 31, 2023.
Total deposits increased by $4.7 million during the first six months of 2024 to $687.4 million, compared to $682.6 million at December 31, 2023.

Chief Executive Officer, Brian Argrett commented, “During the second quarter we were able to return to profitability, based upon robust growth of over 33% in our total interest income and over 14% in net interest income after provision for credit losses, as compared to the second quarter of 2023. The growth in our top line results continued our record of increasing total interest income, which has increased in each of the thirteen quarters since the merger of Broadway and CFBanc Corporation. The increase in interest income reflects an increase of approximately 60% in our loan portfolio since the merger, and almost 46% since receipt of the equity investment under the U.S. Treasury’s Emergency Capital Investment Program in June 2022. In addition, the growth in interest income reflects improving yields on our interest-earning assets, which have increased by 160 basis points, or almost 52%, since the end of March 2022 when the Federal Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve began implementing interest rate hikes to curb inflation. I am pleased to report again that we have been able to achieve these increases while maintaining the quality of the Bank’s loan portfolio, as our delinquencies remain modest.”

“Despite these improvements, our bottom-line performance has continued to suffer from the compression in our net interest margin, which reflects the sharp increase in the Bank’s cost of funds resulting from the rate hikes implemented by the Federal Reserve. We are continuing our efforts to reduce our cost of funds and were able to increase our average balance of non-interest-bearing liabilities by $26 million during the second quarter, complementing the reduction in higher cost borrowings during the first quarter of the year.”

“In addition, our performance during the second quarter was impacted by the remediation steps that have been undertaken to address identified weaknesses in our controls over financial disclosures. The results for the second quarter were impacted by the investments in people that we made over the past fifteen months to enhance our operational capabilities to professionally manage our business, improve our efficiency, and promote our continued growth. We are excited to welcome the new members of our team, including the senior executives who joined the Company during the second quarter.”

“We remain focused on serving low-to-moderate income communities within our target markets and are confident in our ability to execute our plans in pursuit of our mission because of the investments in our team and the Company’s strong base of equity capital, which represented over 20.6% of Broadway’s total assets at June 30, 2024.”

“Finally, I wish to thank our team members for their tremendous dedication to our mission and operating performance, and our stockholders and depositors for their continued support of our broader strategy and growth. Your efforts and financial support are fundamental to our ability to expand the service and support that City First Broadway provides to our communities, customers, and broader stakeholders.”

Net Interest Income

Second Quarter of 2024 Compared to Second Quarter of 2023

Net interest income before provision for credit losses for the second quarter of 2024 totaled $7.9 million, representing an increase of $650 thousand, or 8.9%, from net interest income before provision for credit losses of $7.3 million for the second quarter of 2023. The increase resulted from higher interest income, primarily due to an increase in interest on loans, partially offset by an increase in interest expense, due to increases in the cost of borrowings and deposits. The increase in interest income was primarily due to growth of $145.5 million in average loans receivable during the second quarter of 2024, compared to the second quarter of 2023. In addition, the overall rate earned on interest-earning assets increased by 67 basis points as the Bank earned higher rates on the loan portfolio, as well as on interest-earning deposits and securities. Net interest margin decreased to 2.41% for the second quarter of 2024 from 2.52% for the second quarter of 2023, primarily due to an increase in the average cost of funds, which increased to 3.19% for the second quarter of 2024 from 2.12% for the second quarter of 2023, due to higher rates paid on deposits and borrowings after eleven rate increases by the Federal Open Market Committee of the Federal Reserve (the “FRB”) from March 2022 through December 2023.

First Six Months of 2024 Compared to the First Six Months of 2023

Net interest income before provision for credit losses for the six months ended June 30, 2024, totaled $15.4 million, representing a decrease of $100 thousand, or 0.6%, from net interest income before provision for credit losses of $15.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease resulted from an increase of $7.7 million in interest expense, primarily due to an increase in the average cost of funds, which increased to 3.11% for the first six months of 2024 from 1.76% for the first six months of 2023, due to higher interest rates on both deposits and borrowings. This decrease was partially offset by an increase of $7.6 million in interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2023, primarily due to an increase of $143.3 million in the average balance of loans receivable. In addition, interest income increased due to an increase of 60 basis points in the overall rate earned on interest-earning assets during the six months ended June 30, 2024, as the Bank earned higher rates on interest-earning deposits, the loan portfolio, and, to a lesser extent, securities. Net interest margin decreased to 2.34% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 2.74% for the six months ended June 30, 2023.

Provision for Credit Losses

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $494 thousand, compared to a provision for credit losses of $768 thousand for the three months ended June 30, 2023. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $754 thousand, compared to a provision for credit losses of $810 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The provisions for credit losses during the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2024 include recoveries of provisions for credit losses for off-balance sheet loan commitments of $57 thousand and $1 thousand, respectively. The decreases in the provisions for credit losses during the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2024 were primarily due to lower loan originations and declines in the provision for credit losses for off-balance sheet loan commitments.

The allowance for credit losses (“ACL”) increased to $8.1 million as of June 30, 2024, compared to $7.3 million as of December 31, 2023 due to growth in the loan portfolio.

The Bank had two non-accrual loans at June 30, 2024 with total unpaid principal balances of $328 thousand. No loan charge-offs were recorded during the quarters or six months ended June 30, 2024 or 2023.

Non-interest Income

Non-interest income for the second quarter of 2024 totaled $273 thousand, compared to $260 thousand for the second quarter of 2023.

For the first six months of 2024, non-interest income totaled $579 thousand, compared to $549 thousand for the same period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to an increase in fees from a revenue sharing agreement with another financial institution.

Non-interest Expense

Total non-interest expense was $7.3 million for the second quarter of 2024, compared to $6.4 million for the second quarter of 2023, representing an increase of $859 thousand, or 13.4%. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $735 thousand in compensation and benefits expense, which reflects the investment in additional executives and staff to support growth and strengthen overall controls and management depth. As previously reported, the Company hired a new Chief Financial Officer. The Company also recently hired a new General Counsel and Chief Risk Officer, Chief Accounting Officer, and Treasurer.

For the first six months of 2024, non-interest expense totaled $15.1 million, representing an increase of $2.4 million, or 19.1%, from $12.7 million for the same period in the prior year. The increase of $2.4 million primarily resulted from increases in compensation and benefits expense of $1.4 million and professional services expense of $861 thousand. The increase in compensation and benefits expense was primarily attributable to the addition of full-time employees during 2023 in various production and administrative positions as part of the Bank’s efforts to expand its operational capabilities to grow its balance sheet and fulfill the intersecting lending objectives of the Company’s mission and the ECIP funding received in June 2022. The increase in professional service expense was primarily due to hiring a third-party firm to assist with reviewing certain general ledger account reconciliations, as well as other professionals, in connection with the Company’s investigation of the weaknesses in internal controls that were identified during preparation of the financial statements for the third quarter of 2023.

Income Taxes

Income taxes are computed by applying the statutory federal income tax rate of 21% and the combined California and Washington, D.C. income tax rate of 9.75% to taxable income. The Company recorded an income tax expense of $146 thousand for the second quarter of 2024, compared to $93 thousand for the second quarter of 2023. The increase in tax expense reflected an increase of $78 thousand in pre-tax income between the two periods. The effective tax rate was 35.01% for the second quarter of 2024, compared to 27.43% for the second quarter of 2023. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the vesting of stock awards, which are non-deductible expenses for taxes.

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, income tax expense was $89 thousand, compared to $767 thousand for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in tax expense reflected a decrease in pretax earnings of $2.4 million between the two periods. The effective tax rate was 50.28% for the six months ended June 30, 2024, compared to 29.41% for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to the vesting of stock awards.

Balance Sheet Summary

Total assets decreased by $8.1 million at June 30, 2024, compared to December 31, 2023, reflecting decreases in securities available-for-sale of $55.5 million and cash and cash equivalents of $15.4 million, partially offset by growth in net loans of $58.3 million and other assets of $4.1 million.

Loans held for investment, net of the ACL, increased by $58.3 million to $938.7 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $880.5 million at December 31, 2023. The increase was primarily due to loan originations of $97.0 million during the first six months of 2024, which consisted of $53.8 million in multi-family loans, $21.5 million in commercial real estate loans, $17.5 million in other commercial loans, $3.7 million in construction loans, and $500 thousand in SBA loans, partially offset by loan payoffs and repayments of $38.7 million.

Deposits increased by $4.7 million to $687.4 million at June 30, 2024, from $682.6 million at December 31, 2023. The increase in deposits was attributable to an increase of $19.4 million in Insured Cash Sweep (“ICS”) deposits (ICS deposits are the Bank’s money market deposit accounts in excess of FDIC insured limits whereby the Bank makes reciprocal arrangements for insurance with other banks), partially offset by decreases of $8.4 million in liquid deposits (demand, interest checking, and money market accounts), $3.2 million in savings deposits, $1.7 million in other certificates of deposit accounts and $1.4 million in Certificate of Deposit Registry Service (“CDARS”) deposits (CDARS deposits are similar to ICS deposits, but involve certificates of deposit, instead of money market accounts). We leverage our long-standing partnership with IntraFi Deposit Solutions to offer deposit insurance for accounts exceeding the FDIC deposit insurance limit of $250,000. As of June 30, 2024, the Bank’s uninsured deposits, including deposits from Broadway and other affiliates, represented 35% of the Bank’s total deposits, compared to 37% as of December 31, 2023.

Total borrowings decreased by $14.9 million to $381.9 million at June 30, 2024, from $396.8 million at December 31, 2023, primarily due to the payoff of two notes payable totaling $14.0 million during January 2024. The notes payable had a blended interest cost of approximately 3.75%.

Stockholders’ equity was $282.3 million, or 20.7% of the Company’s total assets, at June 30, 2024, compared to $281.9 million, or 20.5% of the Company’s total assets, at December 31, 2023. Book value per share was $14.49 at June 30, 2024, compared to $14.65 at December 31, 2023.

The following factors, among others, could cause future results to differ materially from historical results or from those indicated by forward‑looking statements included in this press release: (1) the level of demand for mortgage and commercial loans, which is affected by such external factors as general economic conditions, market interest rate levels, tax laws, and the demographics of our lending markets; (2) the direction and magnitude of changes in interest rates and the relationship between market interest rates and the yield on our interest‑earning assets and the cost of our interest‑bearing liabilities; (3) the rate and amount of credit losses incurred and projected to be incurred by us, increases in the amounts of our nonperforming assets, the level of our loss reserves and management’s judgments regarding the collectability of loans; (4) changes in the regulation of lending and deposit operations or other regulatory actions, whether industry-wide or focused on our operations, including increases in capital requirements or directives to increase allowances for credit losses or make other changes in our business operations; (5) legislative or regulatory changes, including those that may be implemented by the current administration in Washington, D.C. and the Federal Reserve Board; (6) possible adverse rulings, judgments, settlements and other outcomes of litigation; (7) actions undertaken by both current and potential new competitors; (8) the possibility of adverse trends in property values or economic trends in the residential and commercial real estate markets in which we compete; (9) the effect of changes in general economic conditions; (10) the effect of geopolitical uncertainties; (11) the impact of health crises on our future financial condition and operations; (12) the impact of any volatility in the banking sector due to the failure of certain banks due to high levels of exposure to liquidity risk, interest rate risk, uninsured deposits and cryptocurrency risk; and (13) other risks and uncertainties. All such factors are difficult to predict and are beyond our control.
