FLOYD, Va. and INDEPENDENCE, Va., Nov. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Parkway Acquisition Corp. ("Parkway" or the "Company") (OTC-QX: PKKW) – the holding company for Skyline National Bank ("Skyline" or the "Bank") – announced its results of operations for the third quarter of 2022. 

Parkway recorded net income of $2.8 million, or $0.50 per share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared to net income of $2.7 million, or $0.45 per share, for the same period in 2021.  For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, net income was $7.4 million, or $1.32 per share, compared to net income of $6.8 million, or $1.14 per share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2021.  Third quarter 2022 earnings represented an annualized return on average assets ("ROAA") of 1.07% and an annualized return on average equity ("ROAE") of 14.69%, compared to 1.11% and 12.13%, respectively, for the same period last year. 

President and CEO Blake Edwards stated, "We are pleased to report strong earnings for the third quarter and first nine months of 2022.  Recent increases in interest rates helped expand our net interest margin from 3.54% in the second quarter to 3.70% in the third quarter.  Our earnings, combined with a reduction in shares outstanding, resulted in an increase in earnings per share of 15.79% for the first nine months of 2022 compared to the first nine months of 2021.  Our focus of growing our core banking business, including core loans, while navigating pandemic-related challenges, allowed us to grow earnings despite the depletion of PPP-related revenues that contributed significantly to earnings in 2021 and the first half of 2022.  While PPP loans fell by $37.7 million from September 30, 2021 to September 30, 2022, our core loans have grown by $92.5 million, or 14.41%.  Through the first nine months of 2022 our core loans have grown at an annualized rate of 16.50%.  Further interest rate increases by the Federal Reserve, which we anticipate in the near term, will continue to enhance asset yields; however, the unprecedented level and pace of rate increases may dampen activity in commercial and mortgage lending as we end the year and move into 2023."

Edwards continued, "While assets have repriced at a faster pace than liabilities, we are now beginning to see increased competition for deposits and a resulting increase in the interest rates being paid for deposits in all of our markets.  Our strategy in recent years has been to focus on growing our lower-cost core deposits with less reliance on higher-yielding time deposits, which has resulted in almost 35% of our deposits being in non-interest bearing checking accounts as of September 30, 2022.  While interest-bearing deposits decreased by $21.0 million during the quarter, this decrease was partially offset by continued growth of $13.0 million in noninterest-bearing deposits.  We expect this competition for deposits to continue in the near term and place upward pressure on deposit rates and overall funding costs.  Despite concerns around rate increases and economic activity, I believe we remain well positioned for growth and success in the future and know that our employees will continue to deliver on our brand promise of being "Always our Best" for our customers each and every day."

Highlights

• Net income was $2.8 million, or $0.50 per share, in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $2.7 million, or $0.45 per share, in the third quarter of 2021.
• Net interest margin ("NIM") was 3.70% for the third quarter of 2022, compared to 3.54% in the second quarter of 2022, and 3.60% in the third quarter of 2021.
• Total assets increased $27.9 million, or 2.80%, to $1.02 billion at September 30, 2022 from $995.8 million at December 31, 2021, and increased by $43.5 million, or 4.45%, from $980.2 million a year earlier.
• Net loans were $732.8 million at September 30, 2022, an increase of $54.9 million, or 8.10%, when compared to $677.9 million at December 31, 2021, and an increase of $52.2 million, or 7.67%, when compared to $680.6 million at September 30, 2021.

Third Quarter, First Nine Months of 2022 Income Statement Review

Net interest income after provision for loan losses in the third quarter of 2022 was $8.8 million, compared to $7.9 million in the third quarter of 2021, primarily reflecting increased interest income and a reduction in interest expense.  Total interest income was $9.4 million in the third quarter of 2022, representing an increase of $728 thousand in comparison to the third quarter of 2021.  Interest income on loans decreased in the quarterly comparison by $42 thousand, primarily due to a decrease in SBA-PPP related interest and fees of $1.1 million from the year ago period.  From September 30, 2021 to September 30, 2022, SBA-PPP loans decreased by $37.7 million; however, this decrease has been offset by higher yielding organic loan growth of $92.5 million.  Management anticipates that this loan growth, in addition to higher rates in the current year, will have a positive impact on both earning assets and loan yields.  Interest income on securities increased by $444 thousand in the quarterly comparison, as a result of the $58.0 million increase in the securities portfolio, excluding market value changes, from the year ago period.  The Company also successfully reduced interest expense on deposits by $182 thousand, or 32.73%, in the quarterly comparison, reflecting rate reductions in deposit offerings.  Management anticipates that interest expense will increase in the near term as competitive pressures for deposits may result in increases in rates on deposit offerings, especially on time deposits.

For the first nine months of 2022, net interest income after provision for loan losses was $24.8 million compared to $22.7 million for the first nine months of 2021.  Interest income increased by $1.4 million, primarily due to an increase of $1.2 million in interest income on securities and an increase of $463 thousand in interest income on interest-bearing deposits in banks, which offset a decrease in loan interest income of $169 thousand during the first nine months of 2022, compared to the first nine months of 2021.  Interest income on loans decreased in the nine-month comparison, primarily due to a decrease in SBA-PPP related interest and fees of $1.2 million from the year ago period.  Excluding SBA-PPP related interest and fees of $1.8 million for the first nine months of 2022 and $3.0 for the first nine months of 2021, interest income on loans would have increased $1 million, reflecting our core loan growth as well as the current rate environment.  Interest expense on deposits decreased by $625 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period last year.  As previously discussed, this is a reflection of the reduced rates for savings and time deposits, as well as a reduction in time deposit balances from a year ago.

Third quarter 2022 noninterest income was $1.6 million compared with $1.8 million in the third quarter of 2021.  Income from service charges and fees increased by $212 thousand, offsetting a $201 thousand decrease in mortgage origination fees as mortgage origination volume has declined compared to the year ago period.  Nonrecurring income of $265 thousand from net realized gains on the sale of securities was recorded in the third quarter of 2021.  Excluding this nonrecurring income of $265 thousand in 2021, noninterest income increased by $22 thousand for the third quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2021. 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, noninterest income was $4.7 million and $4.8 million, respectively.  Included in noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 was nonrecurring income from life insurance contracts of $217 thousand, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, there was nonrecurring income of $200 thousand from a one-time lease termination fee and $265 thousand from net realized gains on the sale of securities.  Excluding these items, noninterest income increased $144 thousand in the nine-month comparison, primarily as a result of increased income from service charges and fees of $715 thousand, partially offset by a decrease of $502 thousand in mortgage origination income.   

Noninterest expenses in both the quarterly comparison and the nine-month comparison were negatively impacted by rising inflation in 2022, and the added cost from branch expansion earlier in the year.  Noninterest expense increased $616 thousand, or 9.80%, from the third quarter of 2021 to the third quarter of 2022.  There was an increase in salary and benefit costs of $230 thousand, while occupancy and equipment expenses increased $232 thousand in the quarterly comparisons.  FDIC assessments increased by $38 thousand to adjust for continued deposit growth, offsetting a decrease in core deposit intangible amortization of $29 thousand in the quarterly comparison.  For the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022, total noninterest expenses increased by $1.3 million compared to the same period in 2021.  Salary and benefit cost increased by $459 thousand, occupancy and equipment expenses increased by $520 thousand, and telephone expense increased by $72 thousand from the first nine months of 2021 to 2022.  FDIC assessments increased by $113 thousand in the nine-month comparison due to continued deposit growth.

Net income before taxes was comparable at $3.5 million and $3.4 million in the quarterly comparison, resulting in income tax expense of $701 thousand for both the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.  In the nine-month comparison, net income before taxes increased by $626 thousand, resulting in an increase in income tax expense of $45 thousand. 

Balance Sheet Review

Total assets decreased in the third quarter of 2022 by $14.5 million, or 1.40%, to $1.02 billion at September 30, 2022 from $1.04 billion at June 30, 2022, and increased by $27.9 million, or 2.80%, from $995.8 million at December 31, 2021.  The decrease in assets during the third quarter of 2022 was primarily the result of a decrease in deposits of $8.0 million during the quarter and a $9.0 million decrease in the market value of the investment portfolio during the quarter. 

Despite the reduction in total assets, total loans increased during the third quarter by $18.4 million, or 2.55%, to $739.0 million at September 30, 2022 from $720.6 million at June 30, 2022, and increased by $55.5 million, or 8.11%, compared to $683.5 million at December 31, 2021.  Core loan growth during the first nine months of 2022 was at an annualized rate of 16.50%.  SBA-PPP loans decreased by $5.1 million during the third quarter 2022; however, this decrease was offset by higher yielding organic loan growth of $23.7 million during the quarter.  Gross loans at September 30, 2022 included $96 thousand in SBA-PPP loans with net deferred fees of $10 thousand. 

Asset quality has remained strong, with a ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans of 0.24% at September 30, 2022 compared to 0.19% at December 31, 2021.  The allowance for loan losses was approximately 0.83% of total loans as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.  Management's estimate of probable credit losses inherent in the acquired Cardinal Bankshares Corporation and Great State Bank loan portfolios was reflected as a purchase discount which will continue to be accreted into income over the remaining life of the acquired loans.  As of September 30, 2022, the remaining unaccreted discount on the acquired loan portfolios totaled $737 thousand.

Investment securities decreased by $11.4 million during the third quarter to $138.5 million at September 30, 2022 from $149.9 million at June 30, 2022, and increased by $8.8 million from $129.7 million at December 31, 2021.  The decrease in the third quarter of 2022 was the result of $2.0 million in purchases, offset by paydowns, calls, and maturities of $4.3 million, and an increase in unrealized losses of $9.0 million as a result of the increase in interest rates during the quarter.

Total deposits decreased in the third quarter of 2022 by $8.0 million, or 0.84%, to $945.7 million at September 30, 2022 from $953.7 million at June 30, 2022, and increased $47.5 million, or 5.28%, compared to $898.2 million at December 31, 2021.  The decrease in deposits during the quarter was a result of a $21.0 million decrease in interest bearing deposits, partially offset by an increase of $13.0 million in noninterest bearing deposits.  The largest balance decline was in money market accounts, which decreased by $27.2 million during the quarter, as competition for deposits has increased.  

Total stockholders' equity decreased by $5.3 million, or 6.98% to $70.5 million at September 30, 2022, from $75.8 million three months earlier, and decreased $14.7 million, or 17.23%, from $85.2 million at December 31, 2021.  The change during the quarter reflects net income of $2.8 million, less dividends paid of $954 thousand, and an unrealized decrease in the value of the securities portfolio as a result of increased interest rates during the quarter.  As interest rates rise, we anticipate continued negative pressure on the market value of our investment portfolio which is recognized on our balance sheet as a reduction in stockholders' equity.  However, management does not anticipate the need to sell any investment securities prior to their scheduled maturity, therefore we do not expect market value changes to impact future earnings.
