Third Quarter 2021 vs. Second Quarter 2021

Net interest income increased $2.0 million, or 14%, primarily due to higher average loan balance and SBA discount accretion largely resulting from the Hana loan purchase, as well as higher loan fees from PPP forgiveness. Net interest margin was 4.21%, an increase of 23 basis points from 3.98%.

  • An increase of $2.0 million in interest income from loans was primarily due to higher average loan balances and loan yields mainly driven by higher accretion of discounts from the Hana loan purchase, and loan fees from PPP forgiveness.
  • An increase of 23 basis points in net interest margin was primarily driven by a 21 basis point increase in the yield on average interest-earning assets.
  • Average loan yield was 5.13%, an increase of 30 basis points from 4.83%, reflecting higher loan fees from PPP forgiveness and the impact of SBA discount accretion from the Hana loan purchase.
  • Average cost of deposits was 0.21%, a decrease of two basis points from 0.23%.

Third Quarter 2021 vs. Third Quarter 2020

Net interest income increased $5.2 million, or 45%, primarily due to higher average loan balance and lower average cost of deposits. Net interest margin was 4.21%, an increase of 55 basis points from 3.66%.

  • An increase of $4.3 million in interest income from loans was primarily due to average loan growth. Higher discount accretion from the Hana loan purchase and higher loan fees from PPP forgiveness have also contributed to the increase.
  • A decrease of $831 thousand in interest expense from interest-bearing deposits was primarily due to continued downward adjustments in deposit rates.
  • The improvement of 55 basis points in net interest margin was primarily driven by a 54 basis point decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities and a 22 basis point increase in the yield on average interest-earning assets.
  • Average loan yield was 5.13%, an increase of 41 basis points from 4.72%, reflecting higher SBA discount accretions from an increase in loan payoffs and the Hana loan purchase, and higher loan fees from PPP forgiveness, partially offset by the impact of lower interest rates.
  • Average cost of deposits was 0.21%, a decrease of 35 basis points from 0.56%. The decrease in the cost of deposits primarily reflects the impact of lower interest rates and an increase of noninterest bearing deposits in deposit mix.

Provision for loan losses

Third Quarter 2021 vs. Second Quarter 2021

The Company recorded a negative $884 thousand provision for loan losses, compared with a negative $1.1 million provision for loan losses. The change was primarily due to a specific reserve on one SBA loan during the third quarter of 2021, and, to a lesser extent, qualitative factor adjustments compared with second quarter 2021.

Third Quarter 2021 vs. Third Quarter 2020

The Company recorded a negative $884 thousand provision for loan losses, compared with a positive $1.4 million provision for loan losses. The change was primarily due to a continued improvement in the economic outlook.

Third Quarter 2021 vs. Second Quarter 2021

Noninterest income increased $1.3 million, or 60%, primarily due to higher gains on sale of loans and loan servicing fees, net of amortization.

  • Gains on sale of loans were $2.2 million, up $978 thousand from second quarter 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher gain on sale of SBA loans from increased SBA loan sale activity. The Company sold $20.6 million in SBA loans at an average premium of 11.59%, compared with the sale of $10.6 million at an average premium of 11.48%.
  • Loan servicing fees, net of amortization, were $599 thousand, up $297 thousand from second quarter 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher net servicing fee income resulting from purchased loans in the second quarter of 2021 and lower amortization of servicing assets associated with loan payoffs.

Third Quarter 2021 vs. Third Quarter 2020

Noninterest income increased $521 thousand, or 17%, primarily due to higher gains on sale of loans.

  • Gains on sales of loans were $2.2 million, up $375 thousand from third quarter 2020. The increase was mainly driven by higher sales premiums on SBA loans. The Company sold $20.6 million in SBA loans at an average premium of 11.59%, compared with the sale of $24.0 million at an average premium of 9.66%.

Third Quarter 2021 vs. Second Quarter 2021

Noninterest expense increased $730 thousand, or 8%, primarily due to higher salaries and employee benefits, and foundation donation and other contributions.

  • Salaries and employee benefits were $5.7 million, up $417 thousand from second quarter 2021. The increase was primarily due to lower deferred loan origination costs, partially offset by lower incentive and vacation accruals. Deferred loan origination costs were $473 thousand compared with $1.3 million.
  • Foundation donation and other contributions were $842 thousand, up $202 thousand from second quarter 2021. The increase was primarily due to higher donation accruals for Open Stewardship Foundation as a result of higher net income compared to second quarter 2021.

Third Quarter 2021 vs. Third Quarter 2020

Noninterest expense increased $1.5 million, or 19%, primarily due to higher salaries and employee benefits, and foundation donation and other contributions.

  • Salaries and employee benefits were $5.7 million, up $638 thousand from third quarter 2020. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the number of employees to support continued growth of the Company and higher SBA incentive expense, partially offset by lower incentive accruals.
  • Foundation donation and other contributions were $842 thousand, up $482 thousand from third quarter 2020. The increase was primarily due to higher donation accruals for Open Stewardship Foundation as a result of higher net income compared to third quarter 2020.

Income Tax Expense

Third Quarter 2021 vs. Second Quarter 2021

Income tax expense was $3.2 million, and the effective tax rate was 28%, compared to income tax expense of $2.8 million and the effective rate of 30% for second quarter 2021.

Third Quarter 2021 vs. Third Quarter 2020

During third quarter 2021, $36.1 million of PPP loans outstanding were forgiven by the Small Business Administration. Excluding PPP loans, gross loans grew by $20.6 million, or 2%. New loan originations and loan payoffs were $133.9 million and $84.8 million for third quarter 2021, compared with $181.7 million and $83.2 million for second quarter 2021, respectively.

Third Quarter 2021 vs. Third Quarter 2020

Gross loan balances were $1.23 billion at September 30, 2021, up $159.0 million from September 30, 2020, primarily due to the Hana loan purchase during second quarter 2021 and broad-based growth in real estate and C&I loans. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, $88.8 million of PPP loans outstanding were forgiven by the Small Business Administration. New loan originations and loan payoffs were $133.9 million and $84.8 million for third quarter 2021, compared with $140.2 million and $47.1 million for third quarter 2020, respectively.

Third Quarter 2021 vs. Second Quarter 2021

Deposit balances were $1.50 billion at September 30, 2021, up $62.3 million from June 30, 2021, primarily driven by growth in time and noninterest-bearing deposits, partially offset by a decrease in money market. Noninterest-bearing deposits reached a record $713.1 million or 48% of total deposits as of September 30, 2021, up from $668.2 million or 47% as of June 30, 2021. Deposit growth was primarily due to continued addition of new customers and increased balances of existing customer accounts reflecting excess liquidity in the sustained low rate environment.

Third Quarter 2021 vs. Third Quarter 2020

Deposit balances were $1.50 billion at September 30, 2021, up $326.2 million from September 30, 2020, primarily driven by growth in noninterest-bearing and time deposits. Noninterest-bearing deposits were $713.1 million or 48% of total deposits, up from $488.8 million or 42% of total deposits as of September 30, 2020. Deposit growth was primarily driven by continued customer preferences for liquidity given the sustained economic uncertainty associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.

Capital ratios remained strong during the quarter. Our CET1 and total risk-based capital ratios were 12.63% and 13.81% as of September 30, 2021, respectively, down from a year ago due to year-over-year asset growth.

(3) Excludes (reversal of) provision for uncollectible accrued interest receivable of $(327) thousand and $(487) thousand for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, respectively. In comparison, there was no provision for uncollectible accrued interest receivable for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

(4) Excludes allowance for uncollectible accrued interest receivable of $465 thousand and $792 thousand as of September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021, respectively. In comparison, there was no allowance for uncollectible accrued interest receivable as of September 30, 2020.

(5) See the Reconciliation of GAAP to NON-GAAP Financial Measures.

Overall, the Company maintained solid asset quality with low levels of nonperforming loans and net charge-offs. Nonperforming assets and criticized loans remained below our historical norms, a true reflection of our conservative credit culture and expertise in the industries we serve. Our allowance remained strong with an adjusted allowance to gross loans ratio of 1.34%. We expect economic growth over the remainder of the year; however, we remain vigilant given potential impacts on our customers from supply chain and labor constraints as well as COVID variants.

  • Allowance for loan losses decreased $30 thousand to $14.1 million from a year ago. Excluding the impacts of the purchased Hana loans, PPP loans, and the allowance for uncollectible accrued interest receivable, adjusted allowance to gross loans ratio was 1.34% as of September 30, 2021.
  • Criticized loans decreased by $4.6 million or 68% from a year ago, and the criticized loans ratio improved by 45 basis points, primarily due to a $3.9 million payoff in one C&I relationship, as well as improvement in the credit risk ratings of SBA loans. Criticized loans are generally consistent with the Special Mention, Substandard, Doubtful and Loss categories defined by regulatory authorities.
  • Nonperforming assets increased $722 thousand to $1.1 million, or 0.06% of total assets from a year ago. The increase in nonperforming assets was primarily due to SBA loans that were placed on nonaccrual in 2021. The Company did not have OREO as of both September 30, 2021 and 2020.
  • Net recoveries were $4 thousand or 0.00% of average loans compared to net recoveries of $1 thousand, or 0.00% of average loans for third quarter 2020.

The Company continue to carefully monitor the trajectory of the economic recovery, which could be impacted by the emergence of new variants and continued spread of COVID-19. In addition, we continue to support our clients, employees, and communities.

Since the PPP’s inception through September 30, 2021, we have funded $154.5 million, and $88.8 million of principal forgiveness has been provided on qualifying PPP loans. There were no new PPP loans during the third quarter of 2021.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to GAAP measures, management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures to provide supplemental information regarding the Company’s performance.

Pre-provision net revenue removes provision for loan losses and income tax expense. Management believes that this non-GAAP measure, when taken together with the corresponding GAAP financial measures (as applicable), provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance. This non-GAAP financial measure also facilitates a comparison of our performance to prior periods.

During the second quarter of 2021, the Company purchased 638 loans from Hana for a total purchase price of $97.6 million. The Company evaluated $100.0 million of the loans purchased in accordance with the provisions of ASC 310-20, Nonrefundable Fees and Other Costs, which were recorded with a $8.9 million discount. As a result, the fair value discount on these loans is being accreted into interest income over the expected life of the loans using the effective yield method. Adjusted loan yield and net interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and June 30, 2021 excluded the impacts of contractual interest and discount accretion of the purchased loans as management does not consider purchasing loan portfolios to be normal or recurring transactions. Management believes that presenting the adjusted average loan yield and net interest margin provide comparability to prior periods and these non-GAAP financial measures provide supplemental information regarding the Company’s performance.

Adjusted allowance to gross loans ratio removes the impacts of purchased loans, PPP loans and allowance on accrued interest receivable. Management believes that this ratio provides greater consistency and comparability between the Company’s results and those of its peer banks.
