서밋 스테이트 은행은 2025년 1분기에 순이익 250만 달러(희석 주당 0.37달러)를 기록하며 2024년 1분기 140만 달러(주당 0.21달러) 대비 크게 성장했습니다. 은행의 개선은 다음과 같은 요인에 기인합니다:

  • 순이자마진이 3.19%로 확대됨(전년 동기 2.81% 대비 상승)

  • Tier 1 레버리지 비율 개선, 9.45% 달성

은행은 자본을 확충하고 유동성을 높이기 위해 현금 배당을 중단했습니다. 주목할 만한 개선 사항으로는 운영비용 감소와 문제 대출의 성공적인 해결이 있으며, 2025년 2분기에 추가로 800만 달러의 감소가 예상됩니다. 총 예금은 2% 증가한 9억 5,710만 달러를 기록했으며, 순대출은 전략적 대차대조표 관리의 일환으로 4% 감소한 8억 7,740만 달러였습니다.

Insights

Summit State Bank shows strong recovery with 78% earnings growth, improved credit quality, and expanding margins despite continued dividend suspension.

Summit State Bank's Q1 2025 results reveal a remarkable financial recovery, with net income reaching $2,494,000 ($0.37 per diluted share), representing a 78% increase from Q1 2024's $1,395,000 ($0.21 per diluted share). This marks a decisive turnaround from the $7,142,000 net loss in Q4 2024.

The bank's profitability metrics show substantial improvement with return on average assets at 0.95% and return on average equity at 10.80%, up from 0.51% and 5.74% a year ago respectively. Net interest margin expanded significantly to 3.19%, a 38 basis point year-over-year improvement and 31 basis points higher than the previous quarter.

Credit quality has improved markedly, with non-performing assets decreasing to $21,884,000 (2.06% of total assets) from $41,548,000 a year ago—a 47% reduction. The bank has made significant progress resolving problem loans, with non-performing loans declining by $10,307,000 from the preceding quarter and $24,101,000 year-over-year.

Notable risk concentration remains in the farmland sector, which accounts for 92% of non-performing loans. However, management expects further improvement as collateral from three non-performing loans is under contract to sell in Q2 2025, potentially reducing the problem loan portfolio by another $8,016,000.

The capital position has strengthened with a Tier 1 Leverage ratio of 9.45%, compared to 9.21% a year ago, well above the 5% regulatory threshold for "well-capitalized" status. The bank maintains strong liquidity of $448,039,000 (42.1% of total assets).

Operating expenses decreased year-over-year, primarily due to a $455,000 reduction in salaries following an 8% workforce reduction implemented in Q4 2024. The bank continues to strategically manage its balance sheet, with net loans decreasing 4% to $877,354,000 and deposits increasing 2% to $957,065,000 compared to a year earlier.

The Board has suspended cash dividends through Q2 2025 to further strengthen capital and liquidity positions, prioritizing long-term value creation over immediate shareholder returns.

SANTA ROSA, Calif., April 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Summit State Bank (the “Bank”) (Nasdaq: SSBI) today reported net income of $2,494,000, or $0.37 per diluted share for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025, compared to net income of $1,395,000, or $0.21 per diluted share for the first quarter ended March 31, 2024.

“Our operating performance for the first quarter of 2025 was a significant improvement over the prior quarter, fueled by strong net interest income generation and net interest margin expansion,” said Brian Reed, President and CEO. “We are feeling positive about our earnings trajectory, as we have made significant progress in resolving problem loans which negatively impacted the Bank’s performance in 2024. While market volatility continues throughout the financial sector, we will remain consistent with our balance sheet management and operating procedures. Continued repricing of our deposit and loan portfolio is expected to have a positive impact on our net interest margin and financial results going forward.”

“We continue to focus on maintaining strong capital levels by strategically managing the balance sheet and suspending cash dividends,” said Reed. “As such, the Board determined it will also suspend cash dividends in the second quarter of 2025 so that we can continue to build capital, increase liquidity, and position the Bank to create long-term value for our shareholders.”

“Another highlight of the first quarter was the substantial decrease in problem loans and non-performing assets,” said Reed. “We have been aggressively pursuing solutions to problem loans and have reduced our non-performing loans by $10,307,000 during the first quarter of 2025 compared to the preceding quarter, and by $24,101,000 compared to a year ago. Additionally, we anticipate non-performing loans will be further reduced by $8,016,000 in the second quarter of 2025 as a result of loan payoffs from the sale of collateral that is currently under contract. These loans represent 46% of our $17,400,000 in non-performing loans. We are encouraged with our progress in resolving problem loans and will continue to make this a primary focus of the Bank.”

First Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights (at or for the three months ended March 31, 2025)

  • Net income was $2,494,000, or $0.37 per diluted share, compared to $1,395,000, or $0.21 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2024 and a net loss of $7,142,000, or $1.06 loss per diluted share for the quarter ended December 31, 2024.

  • Non-performing assets decreased to $21,884,000 at March 31, 2025 compared to $41,548,000 in non-performing assets at March 31, 2024 and $32,191,000 at December 31, 2024.
  • Collateral relating to three of the non-performing loans to one borrower is under contract to sell in the second quarter of 2025 and the expected proceeds represent 46% or $8,016,000 of the remaining $17,447,000 of non-performing loans.
  • The Bank’s Tier 1 Leverage ratio increased to 9.45% at March 31, 2025 compared to 9.21% at March 31, 2024. This ratio remains well above the minimum of 5% required to be considered “well-capitalized” for regulatory capital purposes.
  • The Bank’s annualized return on average assets and annualized return on average equity for the first quarter of 2025 was 0.95% and 10.80%, respectively. This compared to annualized return on average assets and annualized return on average equity for the first quarter of 2024 of 0.51% and 5.74%, respectively.
  • The allowance for credit losses to total loans was 1.53% at March 31, 2025 compared to 1.66% one year earlier and 1.49% in the preceding quarter.

This includes on balance sheet liquidity (cash and equivalents and unpledged available-for-sale securities) of $141,145,000 or 13.3% of total assets, plus available borrowing capacity of $306,894,000 or 28.9% of total assets.

Operating Results

For the first quarter of 2025, the annualized return on average assets was 0.95% and the annualized return on average equity was 10.80%. This compared to an annualized return on average assets of 0.51% and an annualized return on average equity of 5.74%, respectively, for the first quarter of 2024.

“The 31 basis point improvement in our net interest margin during the first quarter of 2025, compared to the preceding quarter, was a result of lower cost of funds as well as higher loan yields as existing loans continue to reprice,” said Reed. “We anticipate additional improvement to our net interest margin over the next few quarters as time deposits and loans reprice.” The Bank’s net interest margin was 3.19% in the first quarter of 2025 compared to 2.81% in the first quarter of 2024 and 2.88% in fourth quarter of 2024.

Interest and dividend income increased 0.4% to $14,542,000 in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $14,477,000 in the first quarter of 2024. The increase in interest income is attributable to a $146,000 increase in interest and fees on loans, an increase of $115,000 in interest on deposits with banks offset by a $197,000 decrease in interest on investment securities.

Interest expense decreased 9% to $6,464,000 in the first quarter of 2025 compared to $7,070,000 in the first quarter of 2024. The decrease in interest expense is primarily attributable to a $498,000 decrease in interest expense on deposits resulting from lower cost of funds and a $150,000 decrease in interest expense on Federal Home Loan Bank advances due to decreased borrowing volume.

Noninterest income decreased in the first quarter of 2025 to $646,000 compared to $948,000 in the first quarter of 2024. The decrease is primarily attributed to the Bank recognizing $514,000 in gains on sales of SBA guaranteed loan balances in the first quarter of 2024 compared to $22,000 in gains on sales of SBA guaranteed loan balances in the first quarter of 2025.

“We have worked hard at implementing significant cost savings throughout the Bank to improve operating efficiencies,” said Reed. Operating expenses decreased in the first quarter of 2025 to $6,253,000 compared to $6,400,000 in the first quarter of 2024. The savings is primarily due to a decrease of $455,000 in salaries and employee benefits from an 8% reduction in force due to a cost savings initiative in the fourth quarter of 2024 offset by an increase in FDIC deposit insurance and stock appreciation rights expense in the first quarter of 2025.

Balance Sheet Review

During the first quarter of 2025, the Bank strategically managed its loan and deposit portfolios to reduce balance sheet risk and improve liquidity and capital ratios. As a result, net loans decreased 4% to $877,354,000 and total deposits increased 2% to $957,065,000 as of March 31, 2025 compared to March 31, 2024.

Net loans were $877,354,000 at March 31, 2025 compared to $917,685,000 at March 31, 2024, and decreased 3% compared to December 31, 2024. The Bank’s largest loan types are commercial real estate loans which make up 78% of the portfolio and loans “secured by farmland” totaling 8% of the portfolio. Of the commercial real estate total, approximately 33% or $222,334,000 is owner occupied and the remaining 67% or $443,684,000 is non-owner occupied. The Bank’s entire loan portfolio is well diversified between industries and product type. The office space product type totals $154,512,000 or 17% of the total loan portfolio; of this total owner occupied is $59,563,00 or 39% and non-owner occupied is $94,949,000 or 61%.
Total deposits were $957,065,000 at March 31, 2025 compared to $939,202,000 at March 31, 2024, and decreased 1% compared to the prior quarter end. At March 31, 2025, noninterest bearing demand deposit accounts increased 11% compared to a year ago and represented 21% of total deposits; savings, NOW and money market accounts decreased 10% compared to a year ago and represented 46% of total deposits, and CDs increased 17% compared to a year ago and comprised 33% of total deposits.

Shareholders’ equity was $95,341,000 at March 31, 2025, compared to $97,878,000 one year earlier and $91,723,000 three months earlier. The decrease in shareholders’ equity compared to a year ago was due to a reduction in retained earnings. At March 31, 2025 book value was $14.07 per share, compared to $13.53 three months earlier, and $14.43 at March 31, 2024.

The Bank’s Tier 1 Leverage ratio continues to exceed the minimum of 5% necessary to be categorized as “well-capitalized” for regulatory capital purposes. The Tier-1 leverage ratio for the first quarter of 2025 was 9.45%, an increase compared to 9.21% for the first quarter of 2024.

Credit Quality

Non-performing assets were $21,884,000, or 2.06% of total assets, at March 31, 2025. This compared to $32,191,000 in non-performing assets at December 31, 2024, and $41,548,000 in non-performing assets at March 31, 2024. Non-performing assets include $4,437,000 for one other real estate owned property at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, compared to no other real estate owned property at March 31, 2024.

“While we are encouraged with the improvements in credit quality metrics, our primary focus remains on managing asset quality and reducing portfolio risk,” said Reed. “As of March 31, 2025, six loans to two borrowers totaling $16,047,000 or 92% of our non-performing loans are “secured by farmland,” a sector that has been hit hard by the current economic environment. Outside of these loans, the Bank holds a small portion, $54,714,000 or 6%, of its total loans in this industry and actively monitors the performance of these loans. Collateral relating to three of these loans to one borrower is under contract to sell during the second quarter of 2025 and represents 46% or $8,016,000 of the total non-performing loan portfolio.”

There was $509,000 in net recoveries during the three months ended March 31, 2025, compared to $8,343,000 in net charge-offs during the three months ended December 31, 2024 and net recoveries of $281,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

For the first quarter of 2025, consistent with factors within the allowance for credit losses model, the Bank recorded a $577,000 reversal of credit loss expense for loans due to a $509,000 recovery received on a paid off loan previously charged-off, a $38,000 reversal of credit losses for unfunded loan commitments and a $13,000 reversal of credit losses on investments. This compared to a $15,000 reversal of credit loss expense on loans, a $65,000 reversal of credit losses on unfunded loan commitments and a $5,000 reversal of credit losses on investments in the first quarter of 2024. The allowance for credit losses to total loans was 1.53% on March 31, 2025, and 1.66% on March 31, 2024.
