The improved results were driven by increased net interest income, lower non-interest expense, and net interest margin expansion to 3.52%. Total loans remained relatively flat compared to the previous quarter at $509.5 million, while total deposits increased 4% to $512.9 million. The company's pending acquisition by Harborstone Credit Union, announced in March 2024, is expected to complete in spring 2025.

I risultati migliorati sono stati trainati da un aumento del reddito netto da interessi, da spese non correlate agli interessi inferiori e dall'espansione del margine di interesse netto al 3,52%. Il totale dei prestiti è rimasto relativamente stabile rispetto al trimestre precedente a $509,5 milioni, mentre il totale dei depositi è aumentato del 4% a $512,9 milioni.

Savi Financial (SVVB)는 2024년 3분기에 순이익이 $205,000, 즉 희석 주당 $0.05를 기록했다고 보고했습니다. 이는 2024년 2분기의 순손실 $5,000 및 2023년 3분기의 순이익 $558,000과 비교됩니다. 개선된 성과는 순이자수익 증가, 비이자 비용 감소 및 순이자 마진이 3.52%로 확대된 것에 힘입었습니다. 총 대출은 전분기와 비교하여 $509.5백만으로 상대적으로 안정적이었으며, 총 예금은 4% 증가하여 $512.9백만에 달했습니다. 2024년 3월에 발표된 Harborstone Credit Union에 의한 회사의 인수는 2025년 봄에 완료될 것으로 예상됩니다.

Les résultats améliorés ont été motivés par une augmentation du revenu net d'intérêts, une réduction des frais non liés aux intérêts et une expansion de la marge d'intérêts nets à 3,52 %. Le total des prêts est resté relativement stable par rapport au trimestre précédent à 509,5 millions de dollars, tandis que le total des dépôts a augmenté de 4 % pour atteindre 512,9 millions de dollars.

MOUNT VERNON, Wash., Oct. 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Savi Financial Corporation, Inc. (OTC Pink: SVVB), the bank holding company for SaviBank, today reported net income of $205,000, or $0.05 per diluted share, for the third quarter of 2024. This compared to a net loss of $5,000, or a loss of $0.00 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2024, and net income of $558,000, or $0.13 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2023. In the first nine months of 2024, the Company reported a net loss of $216,000, or a loss of $0.05 per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.59 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, in the first nine months of 2023. All results are unaudited.

“We reported improved third quarter 2024 operating results, compared to the preceding quarter, driven by increases in net interest income, lower non-interest expense and net interest margin expansion,” said Michal D. Cann, Chairman and President of Savi Financial Corporation. “Overall, loan growth was muted during the quarter, in part due to a slowdown in the local economy and uncertainties surrounding the election and future economic growth. However, we are seeing improvements in our loan pipeline, particularly with SBA loan originations. Further, we experienced good growth in core deposits during the quarter, with an increase in core deposits from local municipalities, which will allow us to reduce our reliance on brokered deposits to fund future growth.”

“Loan growth was relatively flat compared to the preceding quarter and up 5% compared to a year ago. However, we did see good growth in the loan pipelines,” said Andrew Hunter, President and CEO of SaviBank. “We continue to seek out lending opportunities from our customers and anticipate slower than historic loan growth for the remainder of the year.”

“The increase in loan yields during the quarter contributed to net interest margin (NIM) expansion of four basis points during the current quarter,” said Rob Woods, Chief Financial Officer of SaviBank. “We anticipate funding costs are near their peak and will continue to stabilize and should improve over the next few quarters if interest rates continue to decrease.” The Company’s NIM was 3.52% in the third quarter of 2024, compared to 3.48% in the preceding quarter, and 3.66% in the third quarter a year ago. The NIM remains higher than the peer average of 3.21% posted by the 171 banks that comprised the Dow Jones U.S. Microcap Bank Index as of June 30, 2024. The cost of funds increased to 244 basis points during the third quarter of 2024, compared to 238 basis points in the preceding quarter.

Merger

On March 22, 2024, the Company announced that it had signed a Purchase and Assumption agreement whereby Lakewood, WA. based Harborstone Credit Union will acquire SaviBank in an all-cash transaction. The transaction is structured as a purchase agreement with Harborstone Credit Union purchasing substantially all assets and assuming substantially all liabilities of SaviBank. The transaction is anticipated to be completed in the spring of 2025, subject to receiving all regulatory approvals. Shareholders of Savi Financial have approved the acquisition.

“We look forward to working with Harborstone Credit Union to continue our tradition of having a positive impact in our local communities,” said Cann. “We are deeply focused on providing resources and services for our customers to succeed, and believe that the additional services, products and locations Harborstone Credit Union provides will help us continue to meet the financial needs of our customers. Through the unique structure of this acquisition by Harborstone Credit Union, we believe we are maximizing value to our shareholders who have supported us over the years.”
