Insights
The restructuring of Riverview Bancorp's balance sheet, including the sale of investment securities and the repayment of high-cost debt, is expected to enhance future profitability by improving net interest margin (NIM) and interest rate risk position. The impact of this change is quantifiable, with the company projecting a reduction in earnings drag and an increase in shareholder value. However, the immediate result was a reported net loss for the fourth fiscal quarter, which highlights the short-term cost of such strategic decisions.
From a financial perspective, the company's decision to address the challenging interest rate environment by optimizing its balance sheet is a strategic move that suggests a focus on long-term financial health over short-term earnings. The details regarding the net interest income and the NIM decline, however, signal potential pressure on the company's interest-earning capabilities, which may concern investors looking for regular income through dividends or interest.
Given the decrease in net interest income and the increase in non-interest expense due to litigation costs, there seems to be a significant impact on the company's efficiency ratio. This is an operational metric that investors should monitor as it may affect the company's overall cost management and profitability.
The adoption of the Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) accounting standard and the resulting allowance for credit losses indicates Riverview Bancorp's compliance with regulatory changes and a proactive stance in managing credit risk. The company's asset quality appears strong, with a low percentage of non-performing assets. Still, the recorded net loan recoveries and the provision for credit losses offer a mixed signal on the quality of loan portfolio and risk exposure.
Investors should also consider the potential implications of the reported litigation expense and the management's decision to establish a reserve. While creating a reserve may suggest prudence, it also implies an expected cash outflow that could impact liquidity or require additional capital, either of which could affect shareholder returns.
Considering the classification and criticism of assets, it is noteworthy that there is an increase in criticized assets year over year, although classified assets have decreased compared to the previous year. This detail provides insight into the management's risk assessment practices and potential areas of vulnerability within the loan portfolio, which could influence future credit loss provisions.
The contraction in total deposits, coupled with the increase in the cost of deposits, might indicate a broader market trend of depositors seeking higher returns due to increased interest rates, potentially leading to challenges in deposit gathering and retention for Riverview Bancorp. This could impact the company's liquidity and funding costs, which are important elements for its lending activities.
The bank's loan growth moderation, selective credit policy and the context of a higher interest rate environment may suggest a conservative growth strategy, which could be reassuring to investors prioritizing stability. However, the reported decrease in deposit balances and the noted reliance on Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) borrowings to fund loan increases may raise questions about funding diversification and interest rate risk.
Finally, given the reported year-over-year decrease in net income and diluted earnings per share, stakeholders should be aware of the broader financial trajectory of Riverview Bancorp when considering the implications of the restructuring for long-term value creation.
VANCOUVER, Wash., April 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Riverview Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq GSM: RVSB) (“Riverview” or the “Company”) today announced that late in the fourth fiscal quarter of 2024 it strategically restructured a portion of its balance sheet by selling approximately
“Given the challenging interest rate environment, we believed it was prudent to take this opportunity to restructure the balance sheet as we look toward the future. Together these transactions will improve our future profitability by decreasing both our high-cost debt and our low-yielding assets,” stated Dan Cox, Chief Operating Officer, Acting President and Chief Executive Officer. “In addition to lowering our cost of funds, we anticipate future benefits will include an expanded net interest margin, an improved interest rate risk position, stronger performance metrics, and ultimately increased profitability and enhanced shareholder value. With this step, we have eliminated a drag on earnings that has obscured the true value and performance of our Company.”
Riverview determined that as of the quarter-ended March 31, 2024, there was potential liability resulting from pending litigation involving a former Riverview business client related to their real estate investments offered by a business owned by that client. Given the recent development of a proposed global settlement of the litigation, the Company recorded a
“While Riverview has defended itself vigorously and continues to believe there was no wrongdoing on the part of the Company, we feel that establishing a reserve is the best course of action given the uncertainties inherent in such complex litigation,” said Cox.
Including the effects of the investment portfolio restructuring and litigation charge, Riverview reported a net loss of

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. Where applicable, comparable earnings information using GAAP financial measures is also presented. Because not all companies use the same calculations, our presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures as calculated by other companies.
