JASPER, Ala.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Robert B. Nolen, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of Pinnacle Bancshares, Inc. (OTCBB: PCLB), today announced Pinnacle’s third quarter results of operations.

• For the three months ended September 30, 2023, net income of $1,174,000 which resulted in basic/diluted earnings per share to be $1.29. Net income for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $1,168,000, which resulted in basic/diluted earnings per share of $1.28.
• For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, Pinnacle reported net income of $3,499,000 which resulted in basic/diluted earnings per share to be $3.85. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was $3,488,000, which resulted in basic/diluted earnings per share of $3.67 per share.
• For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, return on average assets was 1.40%, and 1.39%, respectively, compared to 1.42% and 1.37%, respectively, in the comparable 2022 period.

Pinnacle’s net interest margin was 3.25% and 3.37% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023, respectively, compared to 3.37% and 3.31% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, respectively. The Company anticipates that interest expense relating to its funding will continue to significantly increase during the remainder of the year as well as next year as a result of several factors such as increased deposit exception pricing and increased deposit migration to higher yielding deposit products.

At September 30, 2023, Pinnacle’s allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans was 2.02%, compared to 2.16% at December 31, 2022. There were no nonperforming assets at September 30, 2023 as well as at December 31, 2022. Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the current expected credit loss (CECL) model to account for credit losses on financial instruments, including loans. The adoption of the CECL model did not have an impact on the Company’s loan loss reserve due to minimal net losses that have occurred during the past five years.

Pinnacle Bank was classified as “well capitalized” at September 30, 2023. All capital ratios are higher than the requirements for a well-capitalized institution. As of September 30, 2023, the Bank’s common equity Tier 1 capital and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios were each 17.82%. As of June 30, 2023, its total capital ratio was 18.74%, and its Tier 1 leverage ratio was 11.20%.

Dividends of $.27 and $.81 per share were paid to shareholders during the three and nine months ended for September 30, 2023 as compared to $.25 and $.75 per share paid during the three and nine months ended for September 30, 2022.

Management believes that the Company has adequate liquidity through its low loan to deposit ratio at September 30, 2023, as well as available funding from outside sources. Our net funding availability, as a percentage of our franchise funding, is 95.56% as compared to our established minimal limit of 25%. In addition, the Bank provides access to additional FDIC insurance coverage for accounts that would otherwise exceed deposit insurance coverage. The Company also retested its Federal Funds line and other borrowing lines during the first nine months of 2023.

The Company’s total deposits at September 30, 2023 decreased $8.9 million, or 2.8%, as compared to December 31, 2022. As mentioned previously, pricing of deposits is anticipated to become more competitive during the remainder of the year as well as next year, and thus deposits could continue to decrease as they did during the first nine months of 2023.

Effects of Inflation

Inflation has caused a substantial rise in interest rates during 2023 which has had a negative effect in the securities market. As a result of the continued rise in interest rates, the Company has recorded an accumulated other comprehensive loss on securities available for sale of approximately $35.1 million as compared to recording other comprehensive loss in the amount of $30.3 million as of December 31, 2022. Thus, this has caused the decrease in total equity during 2023 even though net earnings has been strong. Although these unrealized losses recorded as of September 30, 2023 were significant, management does not anticipate these losses to be other than temporary as these unrealized losses do not currently appear related to any credit deterioration within the portfolio but from higher interest rates.
