• Red River Bank participated in the Small Business Administration ("SBA") Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") and as of September 30, 2020, had $193.5 million of PPP loans, net of deferred income, at an interest rate of 1.0%. These loans resulted in $877,000 of origination fees recognized as income in the third quarter of 2020 and $5.4 million in deferred income as of September 30, 2020. Red River Bank began accepting PPP loan forgiveness applications on September 14, 2020.
  
  
• On August 27, 2020, our board approved a stock repurchase program that authorizes us to purchase up to $3.0 million of our outstanding shares through August 27, 2021. In the third quarter of 2020, we repurchased 2,824 shares.
  
  
• We declared and paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.06 per common share.
  
  
• We began operations in our newest market, Acadiana, which includes the Lafayette, Louisiana metropolitan statistical area. We hired an Acadiana market president and opened a combined loan and deposit production office in Lafayette.
  
  
• On August 27, 2020, Hurricane Laura made landfall in southwest Louisiana near Lake Charles and impacted southwest and central Louisiana. Red River Bank did not sustain any significant damage to its locations, and our employees remained safe. Our business continuity planning allowed us to quickly restore banking services in the impacted areas.
  
  
• On October 9, 2020, Hurricane Delta also made landfall in southwest Louisiana near Lake Charles and continued to move inland through central Louisiana. Banking locations in the impacted markets closed as necessary prior to the hurricane's landfall, and normal banking services were provided the following day. There was no significant damage to any of Red River Bank's locations as a result of Hurricane Delta.

Blake Chatelain, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "In the third quarter we kept our focus on helping our customers through the challenges of 2020. Since the pandemic began in March 2020, our goal has been to be as accessible as possible to our customers, while also implementing social distancing and other protective measures to protect employees and customers.

"Despite the continued challenges, we had many achievements during the third quarter of 2020. The Red River Bank Mortgage Department had another busy quarter, producing record-high volumes of mortgage loan activity and income. Also, as Louisiana transitioned to Phase Three of the state's pandemic response plan and restrictions on businesses decreased, customer traffic in our banking centers returned to near pre-pandemic levels. New deposit account opening activity was strong, and we welcomed new banking relationships to Red River Bank. As part of our capital management plan, we approved and implemented a stock repurchase program.

"We are very pleased to expand to Lafayette and to welcome Ben Smith as our new Acadiana Market President. The Lafayette loan and deposit production office opened in mid-September 2020, and we are excited to serve our Acadiana customers with this new location.

"In addition to the pandemic 'storm', Louisiana was hit by two hurricanes. Hurricane Laura was a powerful hurricane that made landfall near Lake Charles in southwest Louisiana and moved inland through central Louisiana, causing significant damage. Fortunately, none of our locations or employees sustained significant physical harm. Despite major damage in our Central Louisiana headquarters area and Lake Charles, our Baton Rouge and Covington markets provided full banking services on the day Laura hit. Several of our Central Louisiana banking centers, as well as our Shreveport centers, opened the day after Laura. Our hardest hit locations in Lake Charles opened early the following week. Six weeks later Hurricane Delta made landfall and followed a similar path as Laura. Thankfully Delta was a weaker storm; however, it disrupted repair and cleanup efforts in southwest Louisiana. Even though many employees had personal challenges due to these hurricanes, Red River Bank operations continued and customers' banking needs were met. Our bankers remain hard at work daily to help our communities and customers recover from these hurricanes.

"While 2020 has been full of challenges, the Red River Bank team recognizes that we are an essential business, and our goal is to provide uninterrupted banking services to existing and new customers."

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin FTE

Net interest income and net interest margin FTE for the third quarter of 2020 continued to be impacted by the lower interest rate environment stemming from the 150 basis point ("bp(s)") decrease to the target federal funds rate by the Federal Reserve in the first quarter of 2020.

Net interest income for the third quarter of 2020 was $17.3 million, which was $339,000, or 2.0%, higher than the second quarter of 2020, due to a $226,000 increase in interest and dividend income, combined with a $113,000 decrease in interest expense. Total interest and fee income on loans was consistent between the third and second quarters with lower non-PPP loan income offset by higher PPP loan income. Interest and dividend income increased primarily due to a $223,000 increase in interest income for total securities. The increase in interest income for total securities was due to an $87.9 million growth in average total securities compared to the previous quarter, partially offset by a decrease in yield. Due to deposit growth outpacing loan growth for the third quarter of 2020, excess liquidity was deployed into securities and interest-bearing deposits in other banks. Interest expense decreased as a result of our new and renewed time deposits continuing to price downward in the low interest rate environment.

The net interest margin FTE decreased ten bps to 3.02% for the third quarter of 2020, compared to 3.12% for the prior quarter, as our interest-earning assets continued to price lower from the effects of the current low interest rate environment. The yield on loans decreased 17 bps to 4.04% due to the continued impact of the lower interest rate environment on new, renewed, and floating rate loans. As of September 30, 2020, floating rate loans were 13.8% of loans HFI. The yield on taxable securities decreased 27 bps due to the securities purchased being at lower yields than the existing yield for the taxable securities portfolio, combined with an increase in amortization expense on mortgage-backed securities. The resulting yield on interest-earning assets was 3.30% for the third quarter of 2020, compared to 3.45% for the second quarter of 2020. The cost of deposits was 0.37% for the third quarter of 2020, compared to 0.41% for the prior quarter. The cost of deposits was lower during the third quarter due to average non-interest bearing deposits increasing $73.3 million, or 9.0%, combined with a six bp decrease in the rate on interest-bearing deposits during the same period as a result of our adjustments to deposit rates.

In the third quarter of 2020, Red River Bank had an average of $193.0 million of PPP loans, net of deferred income, outstanding at an interest rate of 1.0%. PPP origination fees totaled $7.0 million, or 3.52%, of originated PPP loans and are being recorded to interest income over the 24-month loan term or until the loans are forgiven by the SBA. For the third quarter of 2020, PPP loan interest and fees totaled $1.4 million, resulting in a 2.84% yield, compared to $1.2 million in interest and fees and a 2.99% yield for the prior quarter.

Excluding PPP loan income, net interest income (non-GAAP) for the third quarter of 2020 was $15.9 million,⁽¹⁾ which was $106,000, or 0.7%, higher than the second quarter of 2020. Also, with PPP loans excluded for the third quarter of 2020, the yield on non-PPP loans (non-GAAP) was 4.20%,⁽¹⁾ and the net interest margin FTE (non-GAAP) was 3.03%.⁽¹⁾ PPP loans had a 16 bp dilutive impact to the yield on loans and a one bp dilutive impact to the net interest margin FTE.

Provision for Loan Losses

The provision for loan losses for the third quarter of 2020 was $1.6 million which was $65,000 higher than $1.5 million for the prior quarter, due to expected economic pressures relating to the continuing COVID-19 pandemic.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income totaled $6.4 million for the third quarter of 2020, an increase of $597,000, or 10.3%, compared to $5.8 million for the previous quarter. The increase was mainly due to higher mortgage loan income, higher service charges on deposit accounts, and increased brokerage income. These increases were partially offset by a smaller gain on the sale of securities and lower loan and deposit income.

Due to the low mortgage interest rate environment in 2020, mortgage loan production and income have been at record-high levels. For the third quarter of 2020, mortgage loan production increased 38.4%, resulting in $2.9 million of mortgage loan income, an increase of $937,000, or 48.1%, from $1.9 million for the previous quarter. Also, for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, mortgage loan production increased 135.2%, resulting in $5.7 million of mortgage loan income, an increase of $3.5 million, or 161.7%, from $2.2 million for the same period in 2019.

Service charges on deposit accounts totaled $1.1 million for the third quarter of 2020, an increase of $337,000, or 46.9%, compared to the second quarter of 2020. This increase was attributed to higher customer deposit transaction activity in the third quarter and approximately $168,000 in reduced deposit fees due to temporary fee reductions in the second quarter.

Brokerage income for the third quarter of 2020 was $586,000, an increase of $191,000, or 48.4%, compared to $395,000 in the previous quarter. The second quarter was impacted by our conversion to a new Red River Bank investment group broker-dealer partner, which temporarily reduced brokerage activity and revenue. In the third quarter of 2020, brokerage activity and revenue returned to normal levels.

The gain on the sale of securities was $125,000 for the third quarter of 2020, compared to a gain of $840,000 in the second quarter. In the third quarter of 2020, selected mortgage-backed securities were sold, resulting in the $125,000 gain. In the second quarter of 2020, we executed a portfolio restructuring transaction in response to the lower interest rate environment, resulting in the $840,000 gain.

Loan and deposit income totaled $413,000 for the third quarter of 2020, a decrease of $214,000, or 34.1%, from the prior quarter. This decrease was primarily related to $230,000 of nonrecurring commercial real estate loan fees reported in the second quarter of 2020.

Operating Expenses

Operating expenses for the third quarter of 2020 totaled $13.3 million, an increase of $382,000, or 3.0%, compared to $12.9 million for the second quarter of 2020. This increase was mainly due to higher personnel expenses and occupancy and equipment expenses, partially offset by a decrease in legal and professional expenses.

Personnel expenses totaled $8.1 million for the third quarter of 2020, up $431,000, or 5.6%, from the second quarter of 2020. This increase was primarily due to increased commission compensation related to higher mortgage loan activity.

Occupancy and equipment expenses for the third quarter of 2020 totaled $1.3 million, an increase of $84,000, or 6.8%, compared to the second quarter of 2020. This increase was primarily due to the recent expansion in our Southwest and Acadiana markets, as well as expenses related to Hurricane Laura.

Legal and professional expenses totaled $487,000 for the third quarter of 2020, down $118,000, or 19.5%, from the second quarter of 2020. This decrease was primarily due to higher loan collection, audit, and compliance expenses in the second quarter of 2020.

Asset Overview

As of September 30, 2020, assets totaled $2.49 billion, which was $129.1 million, or 5.5%, higher than $2.36 billion as of June 30, 2020. This increase was primarily due to a $124.6 million increase in deposits in the third quarter. Because deposit growth exceeded loan growth, excess funds were deployed into securities and interest-bearing deposits in other banks. Securities available-for-sale increased $54.5 million to $467.7 million, and interest-bearing deposits in other banks increased $29.2 million to $239.5 million as of September 30, 2020. The loans HFI to deposits ratio was 75.17% as of September 30, 2020, compared to 78.06% as of June 30, 2020.

Assets excluding PPP loans, net of deferred income (non-GAAP) as of September 30, 2020, totaled $2.30 billion⁽¹⁾ which was $128.2 million, or 5.9%, higher than $2.17 billion⁽¹⁾ as of June 30, 2020. The non-PPP loans HFI to deposits ratio (non-GAAP) was 66.35%⁽¹⁾ as of September 30, 2020, compared to 68.75%⁽¹⁾ as of June 30, 2020.

Loans

Loans HFI as of September 30, 2020, were $1.65 billion, an increase of $34.0 million, or 2.1%, from June 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2020, PPP loans totaled $193.5 million, net of $5.4 million in deferred income, and were 11.7% of loans HFI. As of September 30, 2020, non-PPP loans were $1.46 billion,⁽¹⁾ an increase of $33.1 million, or 2.3%, from June 30, 2020. The increase in both loans HFI and non-PPP loans HFI was attributable to new loan activity in our newer markets.

In the second quarter of 2020, Red River Bank originated 1,384 PPP loans totaling $199.0 million, with an average loan size of $144,000. We began accepting PPP loan forgiveness applications on September 14, 2020, and as of September 30, 2020, 20.6% of our PPP loan customers had submitted forgiveness applications.

On October 8, 2020, the SBA and U.S. Treasury authorized a streamlined loan forgiveness application process for PPP loans of $50,000 or less. Approximately 54% of our PPP loan accounts may be eligible for the streamlined process. As of October 20, 2020, we had received forgiveness applications from 28.1% of our PPP loan customers.

During the first quarter and continuing into the second quarter of 2020, we granted 90-day loan payment deferments for requesting borrowers impacted by pandemic-related economic shutdowns. Through June 30, 2020, loan payment deferments on 554 loans totaling $272.2 million were granted.

 As of September 30, 2020, $23.3 million, or 1.6% of non-PPP loans HFI (non-GAAP), remained on active deferral and were deferrals of principal payments only. Active deferrals included approved second 90-day deferrals of $22.4 million. As of October 20, 2020, $14.9 million, or 1.0% of non-PPP loans HFI (non-GAAP), remained on active deferral and included $14.0 million of approved second 90-day deferrals.

We have identified certain sectors within our portfolio that we believe have a heightened overall level of risk due to pandemic-related macro-economic conditions. The following table shows non-PPP loans HFI (non-GAAP) in these sectors:

The average loan size was $322,000. Health care deferral requests were minimal, and as of September 30, 2020, there were no health care credits with active deferrals.

Asset Quality and Allowance for Loan Losses

NPAs totaled $5.2 million as of September 30, 2020, an increase of $921,000, or 21.4%, from June 30, 2020, primarily due to additional loans placed on nonaccrual status in the third quarter. The ratio of NPAs to total assets increased to 0.21% as of September 30, 2020, from 0.18% as of June 30, 2020.

As of September 30, 2020, the ALL was $16.2 million. The ratio of ALL to loans HFI was 0.98% as of September 30, 2020, and 0.92% as of June 30, 2020. The ratio of ALL to non-PPP loans HFI (non-GAAP) was 1.11%⁽¹⁾ as of September 30, 2020, and 1.05%⁽¹⁾ as of June 30, 2020.

The net charge-off ratio was 0.02% for the third quarter of 2020 and 0.06% for the second quarter of 2020. Due to economic uncertainties related to the pandemic shutdowns and future risks associated with the continuing COVID-19 pandemic, we are closely monitoring asset quality and will adjust the provision for loan losses as needed in the fourth quarter of 2020.

Deposits

Deposits as of September 30, 2020, were $2.19 billion, an increase of $124.6 million, or 6.0%, compared to June 30, 2020. Average deposits for the third quarter of 2020 were $2.11 billion, an increase of $123.7 million, or 6.2%, from the prior quarter. This increase was due to strong deposit account opening activity and a large, temporary deposit, along with commercial customers maintaining larger deposit balances.

Noninterest-bearing deposits totaled $923.3 million as of September 30, 2020, up $64.9 million, or 7.6%, from June 30, 2020. As of September 30, 2020, noninterest-bearing deposits were 42.08% of total deposits.

Interest-bearing deposits totaled $1.27 billion as of September 30, 2020, up $59.7 million, or 4.9%, compared to June 30, 2020.

Stockholders’ Equity

Total stockholders’ equity increased to $278.1 million as of September 30, 2020, from $271.1 million as of June 30, 2020. The $7.0 million increase in stockholders’ equity during the third quarter of 2020 was attributable to $7.3 million of net income, a $180,000, net of tax, market adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income related to securities available-for-sale, and $58,000 of stock compensation, partially offset by $440,000 in cash dividends and the repurchase of 2,824 shares for $122,000. We paid our third quarterly cash dividend of $0.06 per share on September 24, 2020.

Non-GAAP Disclosure

Our accounting and reporting policies conform to United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") and the prevailing practices in the banking industry. Certain financial measures used by management to evaluate our operating performance are discussed as supplemental non-GAAP performance measures. In accordance with the Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") rules, we classify a financial measure as being a non-GAAP financial measure if that financial measure excludes or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding or including amounts, that are included or excluded, as the case may be, in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP as in effect from time to time in the U.S.

Management and the board of directors review tangible book value per share, tangible common equity to tangible assets, and PPP-adjusted metrics as part of managing operating performance. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the most directly comparable or other financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Moreover, the manner in which we calculate the non-GAAP financial measures that are discussed may differ from that of other companies reporting measures with similar names. It is important to understand how such other banking organizations calculate and name their financial measures similar to the non-GAAP financial measures discussed by us when comparing such non-GAAP financial measures.

A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures is included at the end of the financial statement tables.
