  • Noninterest Expense increased $1,857,000, or 9%, due primarily to higher Core Operating System expenses and Salaries and Employee Benefits.

Net Income and Profitability

Net income generated during the third quarter of 2024 represents a $71,000, or 3%, decrease as compared to the same time period of 2023, net of $638,000 in BOLI proceeds, while net income generated for the nine months of 2024 represents a $468,000, or 7%, decrease as compared to the prior year, net of BOLI proceeds. The decrease in net income for the third quarter and year-to-date 2024 was driven by higher provision for loan losses and noninterest expense, partially offset by higher net interest income and noninterest income, net of BOLI proceeds.  

Profitability as measured by the Company’s return on average assets (“ROA”) decreased to 0.86% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to 1.02% for the same time period of 2023. Correspondingly, return on average equity (“ROE”) decreased to 11.76% for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to 16.44% for the same time period of 2023.

“We are pleased that Pinnacle’s performance through nine months of 2024 is tracking closely to 2023,” stated Aubrey H. Hall, III, President and Chief Executive Officer for both the Company and the Bank. He further commented, “Our Company is in a solid position with ample funding, an expanding net interest margin, and strong asset quality.”  

Net Interest Income and Margin

The Company generated $8,941,000 in net interest income for the third quarter of 2024, which represents a $707,000, or 8.5%, increase as compared to $8,234,000 for the third quarter of 2023. Interest income increased $1,615,000, or 15%, due to higher yields on earning assets and increased loan volume, while interest expense increased $908,000, or 38%, due to higher interest rates paid on deposits and increased certificates of deposit volume.

The Company generated $26,169,000 in net interest income through nine months of 2024, which represents a $1,368,000, or 5.5%, increase as compared to $24,801,000 for the same time period of 2023. Interest income increased $4,341,000, or 14%, as yield on earning assets increased 55 basis points to 4.94%.

Net interest margin increased to 3.68% for the nine months of 2024 from 3.53% for the same time period of 2023.

Reserves for Credit Losses and Asset Quality

The provision for credit losses was $136,000 in the third quarter of 2024 as compared to $4,000 in the third quarter of 2023. Through nine months of 2024, the provision for credit losses was $396,000 as compared to $66,000 for the same time period of 2023. Provision expense has increased as a result of higher loan volume and recent trends in economic indicators.

The allowance for credit losses (ACL) was $4,795,000 as of September 30, 2024, which represented 0.71% of total loans outstanding. In comparison, the ACL was $4,511,000 or 0.70% of total loans outstanding as of December 31, 2023.

ACL coverage of non-performing loans was 502% as of September 30, 2024, compared to 290% as of year-end 2023. Management views the allowance balance as being sufficient to offset potential future losses in the loan portfolio.

Noninterest Income and Expense

The increase was primarily due to a $76,000 increase in fees generated from sales of mortgage loans, a $30,000 increase in merchant card fees, and a $16,000 increase in service charges on loan accounts.

Noninterest income through nine months of 2024 increased $229,000, or 4.6%, to $5,198,000 as compared to $4,969,000 for the same time period in 2023, net of BOLI proceeds. The increase was mainly due to a $103,000 increase in merchant card processing fees, a $53,000 increase in fees generated from sales of mortgage loans, a $41,000 increase in service charges on loan accounts, and a $33,000 increase in in commissions and fees from sales of investment and insurance products.

Noninterest expense through nine months of 2024 increased $1,857,000, or 9%, to $23,044,000 as compared to $21,187,000 for the same time period of 2023.
