“Our Company experienced the volatility of the banking sector this quarter and it has impacted our earnings results,” said Mark A. Klein, Chairman, President, and CEO of SB Financial. “Liquidity concerns resulted in a much more competitive arena for deposits and funding in the quarter, which drove our deposit beta significantly higher and reduced margin income. We still were able to add loan balances in the quarter even as we have begun to examine all of our credit underwriting standards.”

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Consolidated Revenue

Total operating revenue, consisting of net interest income and noninterest income, was down from both the linked quarter and the prior year quarter by 4.3 and 2.0 percent, respectively. Operating revenue was negatively impacted by the decline in mortgage banking revenue and higher funding costs.

• Net interest income was down 5.3 percent from the linked quarter but up 21.8 percent from the year ago quarter.
• Net interest margin was up from the prior year by 68 basis points, primarily from the shift in mix of our balance sheet with cash and securities reallocated to the loan portfolio offset by the shift in our funding mix to higher cost term deposits.      
• Noninterest income was down 36.8 percent from the year ago quarter, due to lower mortgage volume and OMSR recapture.
  

Mortgage Loan Business

Mortgage loan originations for the first quarter of 2023 were $49.3 million, down $48.0 million, or 49.3 percent, from the year-ago quarter; likewise, total sales of originated loans were $22.6 million, down $49.5 million, or 68.7 percent.  

Net mortgage banking revenue, consisting of gains on the sale of mortgage loans and net loan servicing fees, was $1.2 million for the first quarter of 2023, compared to $2.9 million for the year-ago quarter. The mortgage servicing valuation adjustment for the first quarter of 2023 was a positive $0.1 million, compared to a positive adjustment of $0.9 million for the first quarter of 2022. The servicing portfolio at March 31, 2023, was $1.34 billion, which was down 2.3 percent to the prior year.

Mr. Klein noted, “While we added producers in our high growth markets of Indianapolis and Columbus, mortgage origination volume was constrained by the rate environment. Our pipelines are improving and notably nearly 75 percent of the pipeline is saleable product, which is back to our more normal business model.”

Noninterest Income and Noninterest Expense

Noninterest income declined for the first quarter, from both the linked quarter and prior year. Gain-on-sale from mortgage loans were down significantly from the prior year and total sales were down over $46 million. The Title insurance business was off nearly 40 percent, reflecting the lower level of residential volume.

For the first quarter of 2023, noninterest expense of $10.8 million was down $0.1 million or 0.8 percent compared to the prior year quarter. Overall head count is down from the linked quarter by 4.9 percent as we continue to right size the mortgage business line. Commission expense for both mortgage and SBA is down compared to the prior year due to the lower total origination volume.

Mr. Klein stated, “We have undertaken a full scale review of our expense structure as we understand the headwinds that revenue growth will encounter in 2023. Our mortgage business line infrastructure has been reduced and we are looking at other areas to provide meaningful expense reductions.”

Balance Sheet

Total assets as of March 31, 2023, were $1.34 billion, or in line with the year ago quarter primarily due to the increase in the loan portfolio which was offset by declines in cash and investments. Total shareholders’ equity as of March 31, 2023, was $119.8 million, down from the prior year but compared to the linked quarter was higher due to the declining impairment of our bond portfolio. Excluding the impact of the valuation adjustment, equity increased $3.1 million or 2.1 percent. Our adoption of CECL on January 1^st resulted in a reduction of equity that was transferred into our allowance for credit losses. SB Financial repurchased 56,000 shares of our stock during the quarter.  

The investment portfolio of $237.9 million, represented 17.7 percent of assets at March 31, 2023, and was down $27.4 million or 10.3 percent from the year-ago period. Total loans held for investment were $976.3 million at March 31, 2023, up $125.6 million, or 14.8 percent, from March 31, 2022.

Deposit balances of $1.11 billion at March 31, 2023, decreased by $27.9 million, or 2.5 percent, since March 31, 2022. However, deposits have increased from the linked quarter by $23.5 million and have increased for three consecutive quarters. The growth in deposits has come with a significant shift in the mix as time deposits now comprise 21.1 percent of the total compared to 13.1 percent at March 31, 2022.  

Mr. Klein continued, “Loan growth continued in the quarter and compared to the prior year we have increased our loan portfolio by over $125 million which has led to a positive mix shift on the asset side of the balance sheet. Like every community bank, the quest for deposits and low-cost funding was challenging. We are pleased that we have been able to grow deposits over the last three quarters, albeit at a higher cost.”

Asset Quality

SB Financial reported nonperforming assets of $4.7 million as of March 31, 2023, down $0.9 million or 16.0 percent from the year-ago quarter. The coverage ratio of problem loans to the allowance for credit losses was at 382.4 percent at March 31, 2023, which was up over 100 basis points from the prior year due in large part to the expansion of the allowance from the CECL adjustment of $1.4 million.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Non-GAAP financial measures, specifically pre-tax, pre-provision income, tangible common equity, tangible assets, tangible book value per common share, tangible common equity to tangible assets, return on average tangible common equity, total interest income – FTE, net interest income – FTE and net interest margin – FTE are used by the Company’s management to measure the strength of its capital and analyze profitability, including its ability to generate earnings on tangible capital invested by its shareholders. In addition, the Company excludes the OMSR impairment from net income to report anon-GAAP adjusted net income level. Although management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors by providing a greater understanding of its business, they should not be considered a substitute for financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.
