Annualized return on average assets and average equity for September 30, 2021 increased to 0.87% and 11.33%, respectively, compared to 0.79% and 9.09%, respectively, for September 30, 2020.

As of September 30, 2021, total assets increased $61.4 million, or 16.3%, to $437.8 million compared to total assets of $376.4 million as of September 30, 2020.

The Bank’s liquidity position remains strong with a funding base largely comprised of core noninterest bearing demand deposit accounts and low cost interest bearing checking, savings and money market deposit accounts. The continued inflows of deposits through the first nine months of 2021 resulted in elevated cash and cash equivalents and funded the purchase of $56.5 million in investment securities. At September 30, 2021, the Bank’s regulatory capital ratios exceeded the well capitalized standard. However, the Bank’s Tier 1 capital ratio decreased to 8.36% from 8.68% at December 31, 2020 and 8.99% at September 30, 2020. This decline is attributable to the significant increase in total assets related to the continued funding from deposit inflows. The ratio of common equity Tier 1 capital to risk weighted assets was 15.60%, 15.47% and 14.75% at September 30, 2021, December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020, respectively. The ratio of total capital to risk weighted assets was 16.85%, 16.72% and 15.92% at September 30, 2021, December 31, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively. Management’s capital planning strategies combined with strong earnings performance will allow the Bank to continue to build, support and maintain an adequate capital position.
The allowance for loan losses as of September 30, 2021 was $2.8 million, or 1.15% of total loans compared to $2.8 million, or 1.15% as of December 31, 2020 and $2.5 million, or 1.06% as of September 30, 2020. Excluding PPP loans, which are fully government guaranteed, the allowance for loan losses was 1.20%, 1.22% and 1.14% of total loans as of September 30, 2021, December 31, 2020 and September 30, 2020, respectively. The allowance for loan losses reflects the stabilization of the economic outlook and improved credit performance. For the first nine months of 2021, the provision for loan losses totaled $80 thousand compared to $490 thousand for the same period in 2020. Credit quality metrics generally improved during the third quarter with noncurrent loans to total loans declining to 1.17% as of September 30, 2021, compared to 1.31% as of December 31, 2020 and 1.36% as of September 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2021, noncurrent loans totaled $2.9 million with the majority being attributed to one relationship that is actively managed.
