Insights
Upon reviewing the recent financial performance of C&F Financial Corporation, it is evident that there has been a significant decrease in both net income and earnings per share (EPS) in the first quarter of 2024 compared to the same period last year. A decline from
The reported annualized return on average equity (ROAE) and return on average tangible common equity (ROATCE) also indicate a contraction, from
Investors should consider the potential reasons behind such a downturn, which may include increased competition, rises in operating costs, or possibly decreased revenue streams. Additionally, these results might suggest a need to reevaluate the company's operational efficiency and cost-management strategies. While such a trend could be a cause for concern, it is important to analyze multiple quarters to discern whether this is part of a larger pattern or an anomaly specific to this quarter.
Analyzing the financial results in the context of the market, one must consider the broader economic environment during this period. If the industry or the overall economy is facing headwinds, such as increased interest rates or inflationary pressures, this could explain the performance dip. In a challenging economic climate, banks and financial institutions often face thinner margins and higher credit costs.
Furthermore, it's important to cross-reference these financial indicators with peer performance. If competitors are not experiencing similar declines, this might suggest that the issues are specific to C&F Financial Corporation's strategy or operations, rather than industry-wide phenomena. On the flip side, if the entire sector is trending downwards, it could be indicative of systemic issues affecting all market players.
Investors should note that singular quarterly results do not always signify a long-term trend. However, the results can impact investor sentiment and the company's stock price in the short term. It's also important to consider any forward-looking statements or strategic plans the company might have disclosed that could address the downturn and potentially restore investor confidence.

“Our net income continues to be affected by increases in deposit costs resulting from both a change in mix of deposits and the overall higher interest rate environment,” commented Tom Cherry, President and Chief Executive Officer of C&F Financial Corporation. “While we believe there are signs that our cost of deposits is peaking, there continues to be pressure on our net interest margin. Regardless, we are pleased with several of our other balance sheet measures. Both loan and deposit growth were very good in the first quarter, and asset quality and capital remain strong as well. Despite the continued earnings headwinds we expect to face during 2024, we remain optimistic for our strategic opportunities for the remainder of 2024 and beyond.”
Key highlights for the first quarter of 2024 are as follows.
- Community banking segment loans grew
$67.7 million , or 21.3 percent annualized, and$143.3 million , or 12.0 percent, compared to December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively; - Consumer finance segment loans grew
$7.6 million , or 6.5 percent annualized, and$945,000 , or less than 1 percent, compared to December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively; - Deposits increased
$21.8 million , or 4.2 percent annualized, and$92.1 million , or 4.6 percent, compared to December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively; - Consolidated annualized net interest margin was 4.09 percent for the first quarter of 2024 compared to 4.52 percent for the first quarter of 2023 and 4.17 percent in the fourth quarter of 2023;
- The consumer finance segment recorded provision for credit losses of
$3.0 million for the first quarter of 2024 compared to$1.6 million for the first quarter of 2023 and$2.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2023; - The consumer finance segment experienced net charge-offs at an annualized rate of 2.54 percent of average total loans for the first quarter of 2024 compared to 1.77 percent for the first quarter of 2023 and 2.72 percent for the fourth quarter of 2023;
- Mortgage banking segment loan originations were
$94.3 million for the first quarter of 2024, a decrease of$21.5 million , or 18.5 percent, and$3.9 million , or 4.0 percent, compared to the first quarter of 2023 and the fourth quarter of 2023, respectively.
Community Banking Segment. The community banking segment reported net income of
- higher interest expense due primarily to higher rates on deposits and higher balances of interest-bearing deposits; and
- higher salaries and employee benefits expense, which have generally increased in line with employment market conditions;
partially offset by:
- higher interest income resulting from the effects of rising interest rates on asset yields and higher average balances of loans, offset in part by lower average balances of securities.
Average loans increased
Average loan yields and average costs of interest-bearing deposits were higher for the first quarter of 2024 compared to the same period of 2023, due primarily to the effects of rising interest rates as market interest rates rose in 2023, and management expects both to continue to rise in 2024.
The community banking segment’s nonaccrual loans were
Mortgage Banking Segment. The mortgage banking segment reported net income of
- higher reversal of provision for indemnifications;
- lower variable expenses tied to mortgage loan origination volume such as commissions and bonuses, reported in salaries and employee benefits, as well as mortgage banking loan processing expenses and data processing expenses; and
- lower salaries and employee benefits, occupancy expense and other expenses due to an effort to reduce overhead costs as mortgage loan origination volume has decreased;
partially offset by:
- lower volume of mortgage loan originations.
The sustained elevated level of mortgage interest rates, combined with higher home prices and lower levels of inventory, has led to a substantial decline in mortgage loan originations for the mortgage industry during 2024 and 2023. Mortgage loan originations for the mortgage banking segment were
During the first quarter of 2024, the mortgage banking segment recorded a reversal of provision for indemnification losses of
Consumer Finance Segment. The consumer finance segment reported a net loss of
- higher provision for credit losses due primarily to increased net charge-offs; and
- higher interest expense on variable rate borrowings from the community banking segment as a result of increased market interest rates;
partially offset by:
- higher interest income resulting from the effects of rising interest rates on loan yields.
Average loans decreased
Liquidity. The objective of the Corporation’s liquidity management is to ensure the continuous availability of funds to satisfy the credit needs of our customers and the demands of our depositors, creditors and investors. Uninsured deposits represent an estimate of amounts above the FDIC insurance coverage limit of
In addition to deposits, the Corporation utilizes short-term and long-term borrowings as sources of funds. Short-term borrowings from the Federal Reserve Bank and the Federal Home loan Bank of Atlanta (FHLB) may be used to fund the Corporation’s day-to-day operations. Short-term borrowings also include securities sold under agreements to repurchase. Total borrowings increased to
Additional sources of liquidity available to the Corporation include cash flows from operations, loan payments and payoffs, deposit growth, maturities, calls and sales of securities and the issuance of brokered certificates of deposit.
Capital and Dividends. The Corporation declared a quarterly cash dividend for the first quarter of 2024 of
Total consolidated equity decreased
As of March 31, 2024, the most recent notification from the FDIC categorized the C&F Bank as well capitalized under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action. To be categorized as well capitalized under regulations applicable at March 31, 2024, C&F Bank was required to maintain minimum total risk-based, Tier 1 risk-based, CET1 risk-based and Tier 1 leverage ratios. In addition to the regulatory risk-based capital requirements, C&F Bank must maintain a capital conservation buffer of additional capital of 2.5 percent of risk-weighted assets as required by the Basel III capital rules. The Corporation and C&F Bank exceeded these ratios at March 31, 2024. For additional information, see “Capital Ratios” below. The above mentioned ratios are not impacted by unrealized losses on securities available for sale. In the event that all of these unrealized losses became realized into earnings, the Corporation and C&F Bank would both continue to exceed minimum capital requirements, including the capital conservation buffer, and be considered well capitalized.
In December 2023, the Board of Directors authorized a program, effective January 1, 2024, to repurchase up to

Use of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures. The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation conform to GAAP in the United States and prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, certain non-GAAP measures are used by management to supplement the evaluation of the Corporation’s performance. These include adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted return on average equity, adjusted return on average assets, return on average tangible common equity (ROTCE), adjusted ROTCE, tangible book value per share, price to tangible book value ratio, and the following fully-taxable equivalent (FTE) measures: interest income on loans-FTE, interest income on securities-FTE, total interest income-FTE and net interest income-FTE.
Management believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures provides meaningful information about operating performance by enhancing comparability with other financial periods, other financial institutions, and between different sources of interest income. The non-GAAP measures used by management enhance comparability by excluding the effects of balances of intangible assets, including goodwill, that vary significantly between institutions, and tax benefits that are not consistent across different opportunities for investment. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP-basis financial statements, and other bank holding companies may define or calculate these or similar measures differently. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Corporation to evaluate and measure the Corporation’s performance to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is presented below.
