Capital

At September 30, 2022, the Bank's regulatory capital ratios (Leverage, Tier 1, and Total Risk-Based) were 9.15%, 11.31%, and 12.26%, respectively. These ratios exceed the regulatory minimums to be considered well capitalized.

The Company reported book value per share and tangible book value per share at September 30, 2022 of $8.69 and $8.17, respectively compared to $9.67 and $9.13 at December 31, 2021. The reduction in book value per share is the result of changes in unrealized gains and losses in the Bank's investment portfolio partially offset by retained earnings. Significant increases in market interest rates during the year have negatively impacted the fair value of the Bank's investment portfolio.

Balance Sheet and Credit Quality

Total Assets increased by 6% during the first nine months of the year to $804 million at September 30, 2022. Asset growth consisted primarily of increases in net loans and securities offset by a reduction in cash and cash equivalents.

Net Loans increased $44 million or 8% during the third quarter, and $133 million year-to-date to $596 million at quarter end. This year-to-date increase represents an annualized growth rate of 38%.

Loan growth was impacted by Payroll Protection Program (PPP) loan pay downs of $6.7 million during the quarter and $13.7 million year-to-date. $0.6 million in PPP balances remained on the Bank's balance sheet as of quarter end September 30, 2022. The Bank is wrapping up the forgiveness process with its customers, and anticipates that the majority of remaining loan forgiveness will occur during the fourth quarter of 2022.

The Bank continued to experience deposit growth during the quarter, reporting $721 million in total deposits on September 30, 2022, compared to $717 million at June 30, 2022, and $684 million at December 31, 2021. Total checking balances increased $20 million during the quarter and represented 43% of the Bank's total deposits at quarter end. Checking and savings accounts represented 47% of the Bank's total deposits at quarter end, while money market accounts and time deposits represented 40% and 13%, respectively.

Asset quality metrics remained strong during the third quarter of 2022. The Bank's non-performing asset ratio as of September 30, 2022 was 0.05% excluding TDRs and 0.07% with performing TDRs included. Additionally, the Bank had no loan charge-offs during the quarter and only one charge-off during the first nine months totaling less than $500. The Bank had no outstanding OREO property at quarter end.

Income Statement

Net Interest Income

Net interest income increased 39% to $7.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared to $5.2 million during the prior year's third quarter ended September 30, 2021, and increased 18% when compared to $6.1 million reported during the most recent quarter ended June 30, 2022. Year-over-year, net interest income increased $3.6 million or 24% from $15 million in the third quarter of 2021 to $18.6 million in the third quarter of 2022. Net interest income increases resulted primarily from the significant loan growth noted above, growth in other earning assets, and improved yields on earning assets.

The Bank's quarterly net interest margin was 3.91% for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared to 3.16% for the quarter ended September 30, 2021, and 3.34% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. The Bank's improved margin results primarily from loan growth, improved earning asset yields, and lagging rate increases on interest bearing deposits.

The Bank's earning asset yield increased 0.61% from 3.55% during the second quarter of 2022 to 4.16% during the third quarter, while the Bank's cost of funds only increased 0.05% to 0.27% for third quarter of 2022. While funding costs remained low during the third quarter of 2022, the Bank anticipates that its costs of funds will increase in future quarters given the current interest rate environment.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income totaled $551 thousand for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared to $622 thousand earned during the most recent quarter ended June 30, 2022 and $1,254 thousand in the third quarter of 2021.

The Bank's primary source of non-interest income is mortgage revenue including gain on the sale of mortgage loans. Mortgage sales volume continues to be negatively impacted by the rising rate environment and low housing inventories. Third quarter 2022 mortgage revenues were $174 thousand compared to $267 thousand for the most recent linked quarter, and $957 thousand for the same period in the prior year. While mortgage sales volume is down, the Bank's mortgage production has been sustained by various portfolio mortgage products which contribute to the Bank's net loan growth and core earnings. Most portfolio mortgage products are originated with adjustable rate mortgage (ARM) structures and provide an alternative to fixed rate mortgage loans.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense totaled $4.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022, compared to $4.5 million for the prior quarter ended June 30, 2022, and $4.2 million for the comparative quarter ended September 30, 2021. Quarter over quarter increases in noninterest expense resulted primarily from increased compensation and benefits expenses and other miscellaneous expenses.

Provision for Loan Losses

During the quarter, the Bank recorded provision expense of $555,000 compared to $450,000 in the most recent linked quarter and $192,000 during the third quarter of 2021. The Bank's loan loss reserves to total loans was 1.02% at September 30, 2022.
