Professional Holding Corp. Reports Fourth-Quarter and Annual 2021 Results

Quarterly Net Income of $4.0 million Leads to Net Income of $21.4 million for the Year Ended December 31, 2021.

CORAL GABLES, FL / ACCESSWIRE / January 27, 2022 / Professional Holding Corp. (the "Company") (NASDAQ:PFHD), the parent company of Professional Bank (the "Bank"), today reported net income of $4.0 million, or $0.30 per share, for the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to net income of $6.3 million, or $0.48 per share, for the third quarter of 2021, and net income of $5.5 million, or $0.41, for the fourth quarter of 2020. For the year ended December 31, 2021, net income totaled $21.4 million, or $1.61 per share, compared to net income of $8.3 million, or $0.69 per share for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Daniel R. Sheehan, Chairman and CEO of Professional Holding Corp., said: "Our loan portfolio continues to expand nicely, largely due to our increasing gross loan production. I am particularly proud of our bankers who delivered outsized origination volume in 2021, and look forward to continuing that momentum into 2022 across our new and existing markets."

Results of Operations for the Three Months Ended December 31, 2021

  • Net income decreased $2.3 million, or 37.0%, to $4.0 million compared to the prior quarter. The decrease was comprised of lower net interest income of $1.0 million, a decrease in noninterest income of $0.2 million, an increase in noninterest expense of $1.3 million, and a higher provision expense of $0.8 million.
  • Net interest income decreased $1.0 million, or 5.1%, to $18.1 million compared to the prior quarter primarily due to a decrease in loan yield in our commercial real estate loan portfolio. The loan yield decrease was due to prior quarter's acceleration of the Bank's Payroll Protection Program ("Professional Bank PPP") loan fees and acceleration of purchase accounting loan marks from the Marquis Bancorp, Inc. ("MBI") acquisition. The Company remains asset sensitive and net interest income is expected to increase in a rising interest rate environment. Net interest income, excluding Professional Bank PPP income and purchase accounting marks from the MBI acquisition, increased $0.4 million, or 2.9%, to $15.4 million, compared to the prior quarter, see Reconciliation of non-GAAP Financial Measures.
  • Provision expense increased $0.8 million, or 77.4%, to $1.9 million compared to the prior quarter primarily due to loan growth during the quarter, and, to a lesser extent, a specific reserve on a non-performing impaired loan.
  • Noninterest income decreased $0.2 million, or 12.6%, to $1.3 million compared to the prior quarter primarily due to a decrease in service charges associated with deposit correspondent fees from service charges on deposit accounts associated with acting as a correspondent bank for a Payroll Protection Program lender (the "Correspondent Banking Relationship") Correspondent Banking Relationship, lower SWAP fee income due to a lower volume of SWAP transactions, and a decrease in fees generated from loans held for sale, partially offset by higher Small Business Administration ("SBA") loan origination fees.
  • Noninterest expense increased $1.3 million, or 11.0%, to $12.9 million compared to the prior quarter primarily due to increases in salary and benefits of $0.7 million to support scalable growth, $0.5 million loss attributable to a wire erroneously sent by the Bank in reliance on instructions that appear to have originated from a client's compromised computer system, and an increase of $0.2 million in the provision for unfunded off-balance sheet items, partially offset by a $0.3 million charitable contribution expense in prior quarter.

Results of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2021

  • The variance in the Results of Operations for 2021 compared to 2020 occurred in part due to the March 26, 2020, closing date of the MBI acquisition as there were 281 days of MBI integration in 2020 compared to a full year in 2021 (the "MBI Variance").
  • Net income increased $13.1 million, or 157.2%, to $21.4 million compared to the prior year. The increase was primarily due to an increase in net interest income resulting from the MBI Variance, the acceleration of Professional Bank PPP loan fees, deposit fees associated with the Correspondent Banking Relationship, as well as lower provision for loan losses primarily due to the macro environment stabilization following the increased reserves at the early stages of COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and having addressed the impairment of a previously disclosed loan in the third quarter of 2020.
  • Net interest income increased $12.3 million, or 20.4%, to $72.3 million compared to the prior year primarily due to loan growth and an increase in forgiveness of Professional Bank PPP loans resulting in a higher amount of loan fees recognized in addition to a reduction in interest expense on deposit accounts. Net interest income, excluding Professional Bank PPP income and purchase accounting marks from the MBI acquisition increased $9.0 million, or 18.4%, to $58.0 million, compared to the prior year, see Reconciliation of non-GAAP Financial Measures.
  • Noninterest income increased $1.9 million, or 43.7%, to $6.2 million, compared to the prior year primarily due to an increase of $0.9 million in service charges associated with the Correspondent Banking Relationship, $0.6 million in service charges on other deposit accounts, a $0.6 million increase in Bank Owned Life Insurance income, and a $0.1 million increase in SBA loan origination fees, partially offset by a $0.3 million decrease in fees generated from loans held for sale, and a $0.1 million decrease in SWAP fee income.
  • Noninterest expense increased $3.6 million, or 8.4%, to $47.3 million compared to the prior year. The year-over-year increase was due to increased salaries and employee benefits resulting from our opening of LPOs in Tampa Bay and Jacksonville, investments in digital infrastructure, and higher regulatory and professional fees related to accounting and regulatory compliance, partially offset by prior year MBI acquisition expenses. The Bank's number of employees increased from 182 as of December 31, 2020, to 208 as of December 31, 2021.

Financial Condition:

On December 31, 2021:

  • Total assets remained relatively unchanged at $2.7 billion compared to the prior quarter. Total assets increased 29.5%, or $0.6 billion, compared to December 31, 2020, primarily as a result of increases in cash and cash equivalents, net loans, and taxable securities available-for-sale.
  • Total loans increased $89.9 million, or 5.3%, to $1.8 billion compared to the prior quarter. The increase was driven by loan originations of approximately $304.3 million, of which $226.6 million funded, partially offset by loan paydowns and prepayments. The Professional Bank PPP loan balance decreased $26.5 million, or 31.1%, to $58.6 million from the prior quarter.
  • Total deposits remained relatively unchanged at $2.4 billion compared to the prior quarter. An increase in money market deposit accounts were mostly offset by a decrease in noninterest bearing demand deposit accounts due to SBA loan forgiveness payments related to the Correspondent Banking Relationship.
  • Nonperforming assets decreased $0.7 million to $2.1 million compared to the prior quarter due to a charge-off of a previously disclosed impaired loan. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had nonperforming assets of $10.4 million. There were no charge-offs during the three months ended December 31, 2020.

Capital

The Company continues to remain well capitalized per regulatory requirements. As of December 31, 2021, the Company had a total risk-based capital ratio of 12.7% and a leverage capital ratio of 7.7%.

On March 2, 2020, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase from time to time of the Company's Class A Common Stock. Under this program, shares may be repurchased in open market transactions, including plans complying with Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act. Effective May 6, 2021, the Company's Board of Directors authorized an increase in the amount available under its existing stock repurchase program such that $10.0 million of additional funds were made available to repurchase outstanding shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock. For the three months ended December 31, 2021, the Company repurchased 40,052 shares of Class A Common Stock, at an average price of $18.90 per share. As of December 31, 2021, year to date, the Company repurchased 381,419 shares of Class A Common Stock, at an average price of 17.81 per share. Under the stock repurchase program $4.1 million remained available as of December 31, 2021.

Liquidity

The Company maintains a strong liquidity position. On December 31, 2021, in addition to its balance sheet liquidity, the Company had the ability to generate approximately $449.9 million in liquidity through available resources. Additionally, the Company retained $5.8 million in cash at the holding company. During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company redeemed in full, the amount of its subordinated notes payable of $10.0 million, in accordance with its contractual terms. On December 31, 2021, the Company had $10.0 million of outstanding borrowings at Valley National Bank, N.A. ("Valley"). As previously disclosed, during the first quarter of 2022, the Company completed both a private placement transaction, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold a subordinated note due 2032 in the principal amount of $25.0 million, and increased the availability under its revolving line of credit at Valley from $10.0 million to $25.0 million.

  2. Net interest spread is the difference between interest earned on interest earning assets and interest paid on interest-bearing liabilities.
  3. Net interest margin is a ratio of net interest income to average interest earning assets for the same period.
  4. Interest income on loans includes loan fees of $1.7 million and $2.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 2021, and 2020, respectively.

Provision for Loan Losses

The Company's provision for loan losses amounted to $1.9 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, an increase of $0.8 million compared to the prior quarter. The increase in the provision expense was due to loan growth during the quarter, and to a lesser extent, a specific reserve on a non-performing impaired loan.

Investment Securities

The Company's investment portfolio increased $80.5 million, or 66.8%, to $201.2 million compared to the prior quarter. The increase was due to purchases of approximately $91.0 million in high quality MBS/CMO, SBA, and CDD bonds in our available for sale portfolio, partially offset by $6.2 million in MBS and SBA principal paydowns, in addition to $2.6 million in investment calls during the quarter. To supplement interest income earned on the Company's loan portfolio, the Company invests in high quality mortgage-backed securities, government agency bonds, corporate bonds, community development district bonds, and equity securities (including mutual funds). Equity securities include $0.8 million of investments, made through our subsidiary Pro Opp Fund LLC, in businesses directly and indirectly related to the Company's core business as permitted under the U.S. Bank Holding Company Act. Additionally, Pro Opp Fund LLC has an additional $0.9 million of unfunded investments outstanding.

Loan Portfolio

The Company's primary source of income is derived from interest earned on loans. The Company's loan portfolio consists of loans secured by real estate as well as commercial business loans, construction and development loans, and other consumer loans. The Company's loan clients primarily consist of small to medium sized businesses, the owners and operators of those businesses, and other professionals, entrepreneurs and high net worth individuals. The Company's owner-occupied and investment commercial real estate loans, residential construction loans, and commercial business loans provide higher risk-adjusted returns, shorter maturities, and more sensitivity to interest rate fluctuations and are complemented by the relatively lower risk residential real estate loans to individuals. The Company's lending activities are principally directed to the Miami-Dade MSA. The following table summarizes and provides additional information about certain segments of the Company's loan portfolio as of December 31, 2021:

___________________________________________

  1. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

As of December 31, 2021, the Company participated in all three rounds of the PPP and funded 2,287 small business loans representing approximately $340.5 million in relief proceeds, of which 1,931 loans totaling $280.6 million were forgiven by the SBA. Most of the Professional Bank PPP loans were initially pledged to the Federal Reserve as part of the Payroll Protection Program Liquidity Facility ("PPPLF"). The PPPLF pledged loans are non-recourse to the Company. However, the Company paid off all of the PPPLF advances during the first and second quarter of 2021 and the balance of PPPLF advances made by the Company was $0 on December 31, 2021.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic the Company has reviewed and processed numerous debt service relief requests in accordance with Section 4013 of the CARES Act and interagency guidelines published by federal banking regulators on March 13, 2020. As currently interpreted by the agencies, the guidelines assert that short-term modifications made on good faith for reasons related to the COVID-19 pandemic to borrowers who were current prior to such relief are not considered Troubled Debt Restructurings ("TDRs"). These modifications include deferrals of principal and interest, modification to interest only, and deferrals to escrow requirements. The modifications had varying terms up to six months. As of December 31, 2021, all of these loans had returned to normal payment schedules.

Non-Performing Assets

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had nonperforming assets of $2.1 million, or 0.08% of total assets, compared to nonperforming assets of $2.8 million, or 0.10% of total assets, on September 30, 2021. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had nonperforming assets of $10.4 million, or 0.51% of total assets.

Allowance for Loan and Lease Loss ("ALLL")

The Company's allowance for loan losses increased $1.2 million, or 10.7%, to $12.7 million compared to the prior quarter due to growth in our loan portfolio, partially offset by a partial charge-off of a previously impaired loan. The Company's allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans held for investment (excluding Professional Bank PPP loans) was 0.74% on December 31, 2021, compared to 1.10% on December 31, 2020. The December 31, 2020, ALLL included the reserve for a previously disclosed impaired loan, see Reconciliation of non-GAAP Financial Measures.

Explanation of Certain Unaudited Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), which we refer to "non-GAAP financial measures." The table below provides a reconciliation between these non-GAAP measures and net income and net income per share, which are the most comparable GAAP measures.

Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in its analysis of the Company's performance and believes these measures are useful supplemental information that can enhance investors' understanding of the Company's business and performance without considering taxes or provisions for loan losses and can be useful when comparing performance with other financial institutions. However, these non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures.
