Community First Acquisition

On August 1, 2024, Dogwood completed the acquisition of Community First in an all-stock transaction.  A total of 3.4 million shares of Dogwood voting common stock were issued in the transaction, which equated to total consideration paid of $54.3 million.  Dogwood added $682.8 million in total assets, $474.1 million in gross loans, $572.1 million in total deposits, and $53.6 million in shareholders' equity to its balance sheet in the acquisition.  As part of the purchase price allocation, $4.6 million in goodwill was recognized at acquisition.

Q3 2024 Earnings Performance

Dogwood reported a GAAP net loss in Q3 2024 of ($4.8) million, or ($0.28) per diluted share, compared to net income of $2.9 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, in Q3 2023.  Current quarter GAAP earnings were negatively impacted by merger & acquisition expenses and a one-time provision charge on acquired non-purchased credit deteriorated ("PCD") loans, both of which were related to the acquisition of Community First. 

Adjusted net income (non-GAAP) in Q3 2024, which excludes the impact of merger & acquisition expenses as well as the provision charge on acquired non-PCD loans, increased to $6.4 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, from $2.9 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, in Q3 2023.  Adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue (non-GAAP) in Q3 2024 was $8.8 million, an increase from $4.9 million in Q3 2023.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $18.2 million in Q3 2024, an increase from $11.0 million in Q3 2023.  The increase was primarily due to significant growth in interest-earning assets over the past year, including an increase in assets from the Community First acquisition, and an expansion in net interest margin.

Total average interest-earning assets increased to $1.96 billion in Q3 2024 from $1.34 billion in Q3 2023. Average loans increased by $562.6 million.  Average investment securities balances increased by $19.7 million.

Net interest margin expanded to 3.93% in Q3 2024 from 3.43% in Q3 2023.  While cost of funds increased by 0.24% over the periods under comparison, higher yields on interest-earning assets coupled with a more favorable mix of those assets contributed to the improved net interest margin.

Provision for Credit Losses and Asset Quality

Provision for credit losses was $5.9 million in Q3 2024, an increase from $1.1 million in Q3 2023.  This increase was primarily due to a one-time provision charge of $5.3 million on acquired non-PCD loans.  The allowance for credit losses to total loans was 1.09% as of September 30, 2024, compared to 1.08% as of June 30, 2024 and 1.10% as of September 30, 2023.

Nonperforming loans were 0.18% of total loans as of September 30, 2024, compared to 0.17% as of June 30, 2024, and 0.16% as of September 30, 2023.  Annualized net charge offs were 0.17% of average loans in Q3 2024, which was lower than 0.30% in Q3 2023.  The vast majority of charge offs recognized in Q3 2024 were related to unguaranteed portions of U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA") loans.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income was $4.2 million in Q3 2024, an increase from $3.0 million in Q3 2023.  This increase was primarily related to SBA lending income as well as service charges and debit card income.  

SBA lending income rose by $439 thousand due to higher secondary market premiums on sales of guaranteed loans sold in the quarter and higher servicing fee income.  The weighted average net premium on SBA loans sold in Q3 2024 was 9.64%, an increase from 7.72% in Q3 2023.  Guaranteed balances of SBA loans sold totaled $29.3 million in Q3 2024, which was a decrease from $35.2 million in Q3 2023.  

Service charges and debit card income increased by $466 thousand, which was primarily due to the Community First acquisition. 

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense was $22.7 million in Q3 2024, an increase from $9.1 million in Q3 2023.  Merger & acquisition expenses of $9.1 million were incurred in Q3 2024 to complete the Community First acquisition.  These one-time expenses included placement agent fees, professional fees, executive change in control payments, vendor termination payments, and other merger-related costs.  Further, amortization of the Community First core deposit intangible which was recognized in the acquisition added $408 thousand to expense in the quarter.

Also contributing to the increase in non-interest expense, compensation and benefits grew by $2.6 million due partially to the increased headcount from the Community First acquisition as well as other investments that have been made in human capital across the Bank to support its organic growth, including entering new markets.

Increases in expense items such as occupancy and equipment, software, data processing, and FDIC insurance were primarily due to the Community First acquisition.  

Income Taxes

Dogwood generated a tax benefit of $1.4 million in Q3 2024, compared to tax expense of $902 thousand in Q3 2023.  The effective tax benefit rate was 23.2% in Q3 2024, which was slightly lower than the effective tax rate of 23.5% in Q3 2023.

Year-to-Date 2024 Earnings Performance

Dogwood reported a GAAP net loss in the first nine months of 2024 ("YTD 2024") of ($288) thousand, or ($0.02) per diluted share, compared to net income of $7.7 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, in the first nine months of 2023 ("YTD 2023").  YTD 2024 GAAP earnings were negatively impacted by merger & acquisition expenses and a one-time provision charge on acquired PCD loans, both of which were related to the acquisition of Community First. 

Adjusted net income (non-GAAP) in Q3 2024, which excludes the impact of merger & acquisition expenses as well as the provision charge on acquired non-PCD loans, increased to $12.0 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, from $7.7 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, in YTD 2023.  Adjusted pre-tax, pre-provision net revenue (non-GAAP) in YTD 2024 was $19.1 million, an increase from $13.4 million in YTD 2023.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $42.0 million in YTD 2024, an increase from $30.9 million in YTD 2023.  The increase was due to significant growth in interest-earning assets over the past year, including an increase in assets from the Community First acquisition, and an expansion in net interest margin. 

Total average interest-earning assets increased to $1.53 billion in YTD 2024 from $1.16 billion in YTD 2023.  Average loans increased by $346.2 million.  Average investment securities balances increased by $18.2 million, and average interest-earning cash balances increased $10.2 million.

Net interest margin expanded to 3.66% in YTD 2024 from 3.56% in YTD 2023.  While cost of funds increased by 0.67% over the periods under comparison, higher yields on interest-earning assets coupled with a more favorable mix of those assets contributed to the improved net interest margin.

Provision for Credit Losses and Asset Quality

Provision for credit losses was $8.8 million in YTD 2024, an increase from $3.5 million in YTD 2023. The increase in provision expense was primarily due to a one-time provision charge of $5.3 million on acquired non-PCD loans.

Non-Interest Income

Non-interest income was $10.5 million in YTD 2024, an increase from $8.4 million in YTD 2023.  This increase was primarily related to SBA lending income as well as service charges and debit card income.  

SBA lending income rose by $1.1 million due to higher secondary market premiums on sales of guaranteed loans sold YTD and higher servicing fee income.  The weighted average net premium on SBA loans sold in YTD 2024 was 9.52%, an increase from 8.14% in YTD 2023.  Guaranteed balances of SBA loans sold totaled $79.5 million in YTD 2024, which was relatively consistent with $79.7 million in YTD 2023. 

Service charges and debit card income increased by $446 thousand, which was primarily due to the Community First acquisition. 

Non-Interest Expense

Non-interest expense was $44.0 million in YTD 2024, an increase from $25.9 million in YTD 2023.  Merger & acquisition expenses of $10.7 million were incurred in YTD 2024 to complete the Community First acquisition.  These one-time expenses included placement agent fees, professional fees, executive change in control payments, vendor termination payments, and other merger-related costs.  Further, amortization of the Community First core deposit intangible which was recognized in the acquisition added $408 thousand to expense.

Also contributing to the increase in non-interest expense, compensation and benefits grew by $4.6 million due partially to the increased headcount from the Community First acquisition as well as other investments that have been made in human capital across the Bank to support its organic growth, including entering new markets.

Increases in expense items such as occupancy and equipment, software, data processing, and FDIC insurance were primarily due to the Community First acquisition.
