Interest Income

Net interest income increased to $14.34 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $13.86 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Total interest income was $16.15 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $15.28 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The $876,000 increase in total interest income was primarily due to a $1.15 million increase in interest earned on investment securities. The increase in interest income on investment securities was partially offset by a $460,000 decrease in interest income on loans. The increase in interest income on investment securities was primarily due to a $127.25 million increase in the average securities balance and a 26 basis point increase in the average yield on investment securities.   The increase in the average balance of investment securities occurred as security purchases exceeded repayments. The increase in the average securities yield occurred because higher yielding investment securities were purchased. The decrease in interest on loans occurred because of a $19.87 million decrease in the average loan balance and an eight basis point decrease in the average loan yield. The decrease in the average yield on loans occurred because of the payoff of higher yielding loans and the addition of new lower yielding loans to the loan portfolio. The decrease in the average loan balance occurred as loan repayments and sales of loans exceeded the origination of new loans.

Interest Expense and Provision for Loan Losses

Total interest expense increased to $1.81 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $1.41 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Interest expense on deposits increased by $398,000 to $1.24 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $844,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The increase in interest expense on deposits was due to a nine basis point increase in the average cost of deposits and a $53.71 million increase in the average deposit balance. The increase in the average cost of deposits occurred because of higher interest rates offered on deposits during the quarter. The Company reversed loan loss provisions of $109,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022, compared to a reversal of $167,000 of loan loss provisions for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The reversal of the loan loss provisions during the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 occurred primarily because of the decreases in the size of the mortgage loan portfolio, Hawaii’s unemployment rate and the amount of loans in the payment deferral program, all of which contributed to the reduction in the allowance for loan losses.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income was $615,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $1.22 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. The decrease in noninterest income was primarily due to a $403,000 decrease in the gain on sale of investment securities and a $138,000 decrease in the gain on sale of loans. The decrease in the gain on sale of investment securities occurred because no securities were sold during the three months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in the gain on sale of loans occurred because fewer loans were sold during the three months ended September 30, 2022.          

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense was $9.77 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $9.56 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021. Equipment expense rose by $238,000 to $1.32 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $1.08 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 primarily because of an increase in data processing expenses.   Other general and administrative expense decreased by $103,000 to $1.11 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022 from $1.22 million for the three months ended September 30, 2021 primarily because of a decrease in other loan expenses, which occurred because of the decrease in new loan originations.

Income Taxes

Income tax expense for the three months ended September 30, 2022 was $1.40 million with an effective tax rate of 26.53% compared to $1.53 million with an effective tax rate of 26.84% for the three months ended September 30, 2021.

Balance Sheet

Total assets were $2.16 billion at September 30, 2022 and $2.13 billion at December 31, 2021. Loans receivable decreased by $7.78 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The decrease in loans receivable occurred as loan repayments and sales exceeded new loan originations. Investment securities, including available for sale securities, increased by $102.13 million to $738.58 million at September 30, 2022 from $636.44 million at December 31, 2021. The increase in investment securities occurred as the purchase of new mortgage-backed securities exceeded principal repayments. Cash and cash equivalents decreased to $36.29 million at September 30, 2022 from $99.86 million at December 31, 2021. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents occurred primarily because of the purchase of investment securities. Total deposits increased by $30.03 million to $1.71 billion at September 30, 2022 from $1.68 billion at December 31, 2021. Total stockholders’ equity increased to $256.75 million at September 30, 2022 from $256.32 million at December 31, 2021. The increase in stockholders’ equity occurred primarily because net income and the increase in capital from the allocation of ESOP shares exceeded share repurchases and dividends paid to shareholders.  

Capital Management

On July 12, 2022, the Company announced it had repurchased 220,029 of common shares and completed its eleventh share repurchase program. As of July 12, 2022, the Company has repurchased 4,124,479 shares in all of its share repurchase programs. The shares repurchased represent 33.72% of the total shares issued in its initial public offering.   The Company intends to continue to enhance shareholder value through the use of capital to support its dividends, both regular and/or special, as well as its share repurchase program.
