CEO Commentary

Moak Griffin, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the Bank, stated, “We are pleased with our solid performance in the fourth quarter of 2023, particularly in light of the challenging environment in the banking industry that we experienced throughout the year. Our credit quality remains strong, access to liquidity remains very favorable, and our net interest margin compression is stabilizing. We are also extremely grateful for the hard work of all of our employees throughout 2023 to advance a number of our strategic objectives, including navigating the challenges of, and successfully completing, two core data processing conversions related to recent acquisitions as well as the conversion of the Bank’s entire core data processing system during the year. While we continue to closely monitor the economic uncertainty in the U.S. and our market areas, we look forward to building upon our success in 2024.”

Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Total assets were $2.7 billion at December 31, 2023, compared to $2.7 billion at September 30, 2023 and $2.5 billion at December 31, 2022, an increase 11% from prior year period. The increase in total assets since December 31, 2022 was primarily due to organic loan and deposit growth during the period, as well as our acquisition of Mechanics Banc Holding Company and its wholly-owned banking subsidiary, Mechanics Bank, Water Valley, Mississippi, effective on January 1, 2023. Total loans outstanding, net of the allowance for credit losses, as of December 31, 2023 totaled $1.8 billion, compared to $1.8 billion as of September 30, 2023, and $1.5 billion as of December 31, 2022, an increase of 20% from prior year period.

Total deposits as of December 31, 2023 were $2.3 billion, compared to $2.3 billion as of September 30, 2023 and $2.1 billion as of December 31, 2022, an increase of 11% from the prior year period. Non-interest-bearing deposits were $545.0 million as of December 31, 2023, compared to $586.3 million as of September 30, 2023, a decrease of 7%, and compared to $525.0 million as of December 31, 2022, an increase of 4%. Non-interest-bearing deposits represented 24% of total deposits as of December 31, 2023. While the Bank has seen a decrease in non-interest-bearing deposits since the beginning of 2023, the average balance of non-interest-bearing deposits has been steady over the past 90 days. The Bank had no brokered deposits as of December 31, 2023. The Company’s consolidated cost of funds as of December 31, 2023 was 1.64%, compared to 1.40% as of September 30, 2023 and 0.25% as of December 31, 2022.  The increase in the Company’s consolidated cost of funds during the fourth quarter of 2023 compared to the prior periods was primarily due to the continued rise in market interest rates for deposits across the Bank’s market areas and increased competition from bank and non-bank alternatives. Bank-only cost of funds as of December 31, 2023 was 1.52%, compared to 1.35% as of September 30, 2023 and 0.13% as of December 31, 2022.

The ratio of loans to deposits was 79.2% as of December 31, 2023, compared to 77.8% as of September 30, 2023 and 73.2% as of December 31, 2022.

Net interest income was $21.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $21.6 million for the third quarter of 2023 and $21.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of 1% from the prior year period. Net interest margin was 3.50% in the fourth quarter of 2023, a decrease from 3.55% in the third quarter of 2023 and a decrease from 4.24% in the fourth quarter of 2022. Yield on earning assets was 5.06% during the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to 4.90% during the third quarter of 2023 and 4.50% during the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of 16 basis points and an increase of 4 basis points, respectively.

Noninterest income was $6.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $10.1 million for the third quarter of 2023, a decrease of 39%, and compared to $4.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, an increase of 36%. The decrease since the third quarter of 2023 was primarily due to the Bank receiving a grant award of $6.2 million under the CDFI Equitable Recovery Program in the third quarter of 2023. Mortgage banking revenue was $564 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2023, a decrease of $240 thousand from $804 thousand in the third quarter of 2023, or a decrease of 29%, and an increase of $92 thousand from $472 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2022, or an increase of 19%. During the fourth quarter of 2023, the Bank retained $1.15 million of the $22.2 million in secondary market mortgages originated to hold in-house, compared to $20.2 million secondary market loans originated during the fourth quarter of 2022, of which $2.6 million were retained to hold in-house.

Noninterest expense was $19.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to $20.0 million for the third quarter of 2023 and $17.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, a decrease of 4% and an increase of 11%, respectively. While non-interest expense has increased since the prior year period, a portion is attributable to one-time expenses related to the Bank’s recently-completed conversion of its core data processing system from Jack Henry CIF 20/20 to Jack Henry SilverLake, recent acquisitions and core conversions related to such acquisitions. Total year to date one-time expenses related to core conversion were $892 thousand. Acquisition-related expenses year to date were $599 thousand.

As of December 31, 2023, tangible common book value per share (non-GAAP) was $19.54. According to OTCQX, there were 412 trades of the Company’s shares of common stock during the fourth quarter of 2023 for a total of 73,234 shares and for a total price of $2,110,983. The closing price of the Company’s common stock quoted on OTCQX on December 31, 2023 was $33.25 per share. Based on this closing share price, the Company’s market capitalization was $172.8 million as of December 31, 2023.

Credit Quality

The Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $400 thousand during the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to a provision of $875 thousand for the third quarter of 2023 and a provision of $450 thousand for the fourth quarter of 2022. The Company continues to closely monitor the continued economic uncertainty, especially in the commercial real estate market. 

The Company recorded no net loan charge-offs in the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to net loan charge-offs of $413 thousand in the third quarter of 2023 and $464 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2022. Non-performing assets, excluding restructured loans, to total assets were 0.37% for the fourth quarter of 2023, compared to 0.47% for the third quarter of 2023 and 0.50% for the fourth quarter of 2022. Annualized net charge-offs to average loans for the fourth quarter of 2023 were 0%, compared to annualized net charge-offs of 0.02% for the third quarter of 2023 and 0.03% for the fourth quarter of 2022, respectively.  

As of December 31, 2023, the allowance for credit losses equaled $24.1 million, compared to $23.7 million as of September 30, 2023 and $14.1 million as of December 31, 2022.  Allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.33% at December 31, 2023, compared to 1.33% at September 30, 2023 and 0.94% at December 31, 2022.  Allowance for credit losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans was 237% at December 31, 2023, compared to 185% at September 30, 2023 and 116% at December 30, 2022. 

The Company continues to closely monitor credit quality in light of the recent events in the banking industry and the continued economic uncertainty due to the elevated interest rate environment and persistent high inflation levels in the United States and our market areas. Accordingly, additional provisions for credit losses may be necessary in future periods.

Liquidity and Capital Position

Liquidity – We have a limited reliance on wholesale funding and currently have no brokered deposits. We currently have the capacity to borrow up to approximately $875.3 million from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas, $14.9 million from the FRB Discount Window and an estimated additional $60.0 million in funding through several relationships with correspondent banks. We have not applied for the Bank Term Funding Program (“BTFP”) of the FRB, but management continues to consider establishing an account with the FRB under the BTFP to further expand and diversify our funding capacity.

Capital Requirements and the Community Bank Leverage Ratio Framework – Pursuant to federal regulations, banks and bank holding companies must maintain capital levels commensurate with the level of risk to which they are exposed, including the volume and severity of problem loans. Federal banking regulations implementing the international regulatory capital framework, referred to as the “Basel III Rules,” apply to both depository institutions and (subject to certain exceptions not applicable to the Company) their holding companies. The Basel III Rules also establish a “capital conservation buffer” of 2.5% above the regulatory minimum risk-based capital requirements. The Basel III minimum capital ratios with the full capital conservation buffer are summarized in the table below.

On September 17, 2019, the federal banking agencies jointly finalized a rule intended to simplify the Basel III regulatory capital requirements described above for qualifying community banking organizations that opt into the Community Bank Leverage Ratio (“CBLR”) framework, as required by Section 201 of the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act. The final rule became effective on January 1, 2020, and the CBLR framework became available for banks to use beginning with their March 31, 2020 Call Reports. Under the final rule, if a qualifying community banking organization opts into the CBLR framework and meets all requirements under the framework, it will be considered to have met the “well-capitalized” regulatory capital ratio requirements under the “prompt corrective action” regulations promulgated by the federal banking agencies and will not be required to report or calculate risk-based capital under the Basel III Rules. In order to qualify for the CBLR framework, a community banking organization must have a tier 1 leverage ratio of greater than 9.0%, less than $10 billion in total consolidated assets, and limited amounts of off-balance-sheet exposures and trading assets and liabilities.

The Company and the Bank are qualifying community banking organizations and, on June 15, 2022, the Company and the Bank elected to opt into the CBLR framework. However, the Company currently operates under the Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”) and, therefore, is not currently subject to the Federal Reserve’s consolidated capital reporting requirements. Accordingly, the Company’s election to opt into the CBLR framework will commence for the first reporting period for which the Company no longer operates under the Federal Reserve’s Small Bank Holding Company Policy Statement, at which time the Company will become subject to the Federal Reserve’s consolidated capital requirements. 

By electing to opt into the CBLR framework, the Company and the Bank are not required to report or calculate risk-based capital under the Basel III Rules described above. As of December 31, 2023, the Bank’s bank-only CBLR amounted to 10.60%. While the Company is currently not subject to the Federal Reserve’s consolidated capital requirements, as discussed above, the Company’s consolidated CBLR would have amounted to 12.17% as of December 31, 2023. These levels exceeded the 9.0% minimum CBLR necessary to be deemed “well-capitalized.”

Included in shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2023 was an unrealized loss in accumulated other comprehensive income of $10.5 million related to the unrealized loss in the Company’s investment securities portfolio primarily due market interest rates during the period. The composition of the Bank’s investment securities portfolio includes $564 million, or 41.8%, classified as available-for-sale, and $328 million, or 58.2%, of the Bank’s investment securities portfolio is classified as held to maturity, at December 31, 2023. All investments in our investment securities portfolio are expected to mature at par value.

Our investment securities portfolio made up 20.7% of our total assets at December 31, 2023, compared to 20.9% and 25.5% at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
