Insights

Riverview Bancorp's Q1 fiscal 2025 results reveal a challenging operating environment with mixed financial performance. Net income decreased to $966,000 ($0.05 per diluted share) from $2.8 million ($0.13 per diluted share) a year ago, indicating significant pressure on profitability.

The bank's net interest margin (NIM) improved to 2.47% from 2.32% in the previous quarter but remains lower than the 2.79% reported a year ago. This suggests that while the bank is making progress in managing its interest rate spread, it's still grappling with the high-rate environment.

Loan growth was a bright spot, with total loans increasing by $21.1 million to $1.05 billion. This growth, combined with strong asset quality (non-performing assets at just 0.03% of total assets), indicates the bank is maintaining prudent lending practices while expanding its portfolio.

However, the efficiency ratio of 90.0% is concerning, suggesting high operational costs relative to income. This metric will need improvement for better profitability.

The bank's capital position remains strong, with a total risk-based capital ratio of 16.18%, well above regulatory requirements. This provides a buffer against potential economic headwinds.

Overall, while Riverview is navigating challenges, its loan growth and stable asset quality provide some positives. The focus on improving performance metrics and profitability will be important in the coming quarters.

Riverview Bancorp's Q1 results offer insights into broader trends affecting regional banks. The pressure on net interest income and margins reflects the industry-wide challenge of operating in a high-rate environment, particularly for banks with a significant portion of fixed-rate loans.

The bank's deposit trends are noteworthy. Total deposits decreased by $12.0 million quarter-over-quarter and $23.6 million year-over-year. This aligns with industry observations of deposit outflows as customers seek higher-yielding alternatives or use cash reserves instead of borrowing. The 23.1% uninsured deposit ratio is relatively low compared to some peers, which could be seen as a stability factor.

Riverview's loan growth strategy, including the purchase of $5.0 million in consumer loans, indicates efforts to diversify and expand the loan portfolio. This approach could help offset pressure on interest income but may also introduce new risk factors.

The bank's office building loan portfolio, totaling $113.4 million with an average loan-to-value ratio of 54.7%, bears watching given ongoing concerns about commercial real estate, particularly office spaces in the post-pandemic era.

Riverview's performance relative to its regional banking peers will be important to monitor, especially as the industry navigates potential economic headwinds and evolving regulatory landscapes.

VANCOUVER, Wash., July 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Riverview Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq GSM: RVSB) (“Riverview” or the “Company”) today reported earnings of $966,000, or $0.05 per diluted share, in the first fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to $2.8 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, in the first fiscal quarter a year ago.

On June 21, 2024, the Company announced that Nicole Sherman had been named President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and Riverview Bank, (the “Bank”), effective July 1, 2024.

Dan Cox who served as the Company’s acting CEO/President will now focus full-time on his role as EVP, Chief Operating Officer.

“Loan growth was strong during the quarter, as we continue to maintain solid credit quality metrics. Further, the balance sheet restructuring that took place during the preceding quarter has already improved our net interest margin and helped stabilize our interest rate risk position,” said Dan Cox. “While we are still operating in a very challenging interest rate environment, we are encouraged as we look forward to the future,” stated Nicole Sherman. “We remain focused on improving our performance metrics, and ultimately increasing profitability in the year ahead.”

Income Statement Review

Riverview’s net interest income was $8.8 million in the current quarter, compared to $8.6 million in the preceding quarter, and $10.4 million in the first fiscal quarter a year ago. The increase compared to the preceding quarter was driven by organic loan growth and higher interest earning asset yields and lower overall interest expense due to the utilization of the proceeds from the sale of investment securities in the prior quarter to paydown outstanding borrowings. The decrease in net interest income compared to the year ago quarter was driven primarily by an increase in interest expense on deposits due to higher interest rates and interest rate expense related to borrowings. Investment income decreased compared to the preceding quarter due to the strategic investment restructuring that was executed in the prior quarter. Additionally, Riverview sold a portion of its converted Visa A shares (formerly Visa B shares) during the first quarter which generated $193,000 of income.

Riverview’s NIM was 2.47% for the first quarter of fiscal 2025, a 15 basis-point increase compared to 2.32% in the preceding quarter and a 32 basis-point decrease compared to 2.79% in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. “Our NIM is showing signs of stabilizing, expanding 15 basis points compared to the linked quarter, boosted by loan growth and higher interest earning asset yields,” said David Lam, EVP and Chief Financial Officer. “The decrease compared to the year ago quarter was primarily due to the increase in our cost of deposits and borrowings due to the high interest rate environment.”

Investment securities decreased $9.5 million during the quarter to $363.2 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $372.7 million at March 31, 2024, and decreased $81.0 million compared to $444.2 million at June 30, 2023. The average securities balances for the quarters ended June 30, 2024, March 31, 2024, and June 30, 2023, were $391.3 million, $444.1 million, and $476.1 million, respectively. The weighted average yields on securities balances for those same periods were 2.11%, 2.02%, and 2.05%, respectively. The duration of the investment portfolio at June 30, 2024, was approximately 5.1 years. The anticipated investment cashflows over the next twelve months is approximately $52.9 million.

Riverview’s yield on loans improved to 4.70% during the first fiscal quarter, compared to 4.63% in the preceding quarter, and 4.50% in the first fiscal quarter a year ago. While loan yields improved during the current quarter, they remain under pressure due to the concentration of fixed-rate loans in the Company’s portfolio. Deposit costs increased to 1.14% during the first fiscal quarter compared to 1.00% in the preceding quarter, and 0.44% in the first fiscal quarter a year ago.

Non-interest income increased to $3.4 million during the first fiscal quarter of 2025 compared to $494,000 in the preceding quarter and $3.3 million in the first fiscal quarter of 2024. Non-interest income for the preceding quarter included the $2.7 million loss on sale of investment securities resulting from the strategic balance sheet restructuring that occurred. Excluding the securities loss, non-interest income for the fourth fiscal quarter of 2024 would have been $3.2 million. Higher fees and service charges related to interchange income and brokered loan fee income contributed to the increase during the quarter.

Asset management fees continue to perform well due to new client relationships and a strong equity market performance during the first quarter. Asset management fees were $1.6 million during the first fiscal quarter, compared to $1.4 million in both the preceding quarter, and in the first fiscal quarter a year ago. Riverview Trust Company’s assets under management were $897.9 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $961.8 million at March 31, 2024, and $901.6 million at June 30, 2023.

Non-interest expense was $11.0 million during the first quarter, compared to $13.1 million in the preceding quarter and $10.0 million in the first fiscal quarter a year ago. Included in other expenses for the preceding quarter included the $2.3 million litigation expense recorded in the prior quarter. Salary and employee benefits were up during the current quarter compared to the preceding quarter, as a result of salary increases, higher health insurance costs and higher payroll taxes. Occupancy and depreciation costs increased during the quarter due to updates and modernization of Riverview’s facilities. The efficiency ratio was 90.0% for the first fiscal quarter. This compared to 144.9% for the previous quarter (91.8% excluding the securities loss and litigation) and 73.1% in the first fiscal quarter a year ago.

Riverview’s effective tax rate for the first quarter of fiscal 2025 was 20.8%, compared to (27.0)% for the preceding quarter and 22.4% for the year ago quarter.

Balance Sheet Review

“We posted strong quarterly loan growth during the first quarter, which was due to a combination of organic growth and construction draws, as well as the purchase of $5.0 million in consumer loans,” said Mike Sventek, EVP and Chief Lending Officer. Total loans increased $21.1 million during the quarter to $1.05 billion at June 30, 2024, compared to $1.02 billion three months earlier and increased $40.7 million compared to $1.00 billion a year earlier. Riverview’s loan pipeline was $32.3 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $18.4 million at the end of the prior quarter. New loan originations during the quarter increased to $23.2 million, compared to $12.7 million in the preceding quarter and $20.3 million in the first quarter a year ago.

Undisbursed construction loans totaled $48.0 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $58.3 million at March 31, 2024, with the majority of the undisbursed construction loans expected to be funded over the next several quarters. Undisbursed homeowner association loans for the purpose of common area maintenance and repairs totaled $14.5 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $16.4 million at March 31, 2024. Revolving commercial business loan commitments totaled $50.7 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $50.4 million at March 31, 2024. Utilization on these loans totaled 32.07% at June 30, 2024, compared to 14.61% at March 31, 2024. The weighted average rate on loan originations during the quarter was 8.06% compared to 8.41% in the preceding quarter.

The office building loan portfolio totaled $113.4 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $114.7 million at March 31, 2024. The average loan balance of the office building loan portfolio was $1.5 million with an average loan-to-value ratio of 54.7% and an average debt service coverage ratio of 1.96%.

Total deposits decreased $12.0 million during the quarter to $1.22 billion at June 30, 2024, compared to $1.23 billion at March 31, 2024, and decreased $23.6 million compared to $1.24 billion a year ago. The decrease during the current quarter was in part due to customers continuing to use up deposit balances instead of borrowing due to the higher interest rate environment.

Non-interest checking and interest checking accounts, as a percentage of total deposits, totaled 50.9% at June 30, 2024, compared to 51.9% at March 31, 2024, and 50.1% at June 30, 2023.

FHLB advances increased $25.2 million during the quarter to $113.5 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $88.3 million at March 31, 2024. Proceeds from the securities sale during the prior quarter were used to pay down borrowings. FHLB advances were utilized to partially offset the decrease in deposit balances and to fund the increase in loans receivable.

Shareholders’ equity was $155.9 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $155.6 million three months earlier and $154.1 million one year earlier. Tangible book value per share (non-GAAP) was $6.09 at June 30, 2024, compared to $6.07 at March 31, 2024, and $6.00 at June 30, 2023. Riverview paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.02 per share on July 22, 2024, to shareholders of record on July 10, 2024.

Credit Quality

Asset quality remained strong, with non-performing loans, excluding SBA and USDA government guaranteed loans (“government guaranteed loans”) (non-GAAP), at $160,000 or 0.02% of total loans as of June 30, 2024, compared to $173,000, or 0.02% of total loans at March 31, 2024, and $210,000, or 0.02% of total loans at June 30, 2023. There was one non-performing government guaranteed loan totaling $301,000 at June 30, 2024, and one non-performing government guaranteed loan totaling $5,000 at March 31, 2024. At June 30, 2024, including government guaranteed loans, non-performing assets were $461,000, or 0.03% of total assets.

Riverview recorded zero net loan charge offs for the first fiscal quarter. This compared to net loan recoveries of $3,000 for the preceding quarter. Riverview recorded no provision for credit losses for the first fiscal quarter, or for the preceding quarter.

Classified assets were $228,000 at June 30, 2024, compared to $723,000 at March 31, 2024, and $1.1 million at June 30, 2023. The classified asset to total capital ratio was 0.1% at June 30, 2024, compared to 0.4% at March 31, 2024, and 0.6% a year earlier. Criticized assets were $37.7 million at June 30, 2024, compared to $36.7 million at March 31, 2024, and $24.5 million at June 30, 2023. The increase in criticized assets compared to a year ago was mainly due to one relationship downgrade which has plans in place to pay off outstanding loans or meet certain loan covenants. The Company does not believe this is a systemic credit issue.

The allowance for credit losses was $15.4 million at June 30, 2024, which was unchanged compared to March 31, 2024, and an increase compared to $15.3 million one year earlier. The allowance for credit losses represented 1.47% of total loans at June 30, 2024, compared to 1.50% at March 31, 2024, and 1.53% a year earlier. The allowance for credit losses to loans, net of government guaranteed loans (non-GAAP), was 1.54% at June 30, 2024, compared to 1.58% at March 31, 2024, and 1.62% a year earlier.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management has presented these non-GAAP financial measures in this earnings release because it believes that they provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in Riverview's core operations reflected in the current quarter's results and facilitate the comparison of our performance with the performance of our peers. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for any analysis based on GAAP.
