LYNCHBURG, Va., July 21, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bank of the James Financial Group, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ:BOTJ), the parent company of Bank of the James (the "Bank"), a full-service commercial and retail bank, and Pettyjohn, Wood & White, Inc. ("PWW"), an SEC-registered investment advisor, today announced unaudited results of operations for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2023. The Bank serves Region 2000 (the greater Lynchburg MSA), and the Blacksburg, Charlottesville, Harrisonburg, Lexington, Roanoke, and Wytheville, Virginia markets.
Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2023 increased to $2.53 million or $0.56 per basic and diluted share compared with $2.29 million or $0.48 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $4.52 million or $0.99 per basic and diluted share compared with $4.43 million or $0.93 per basic and diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2022.
Robert R. Chapman III, CEO, commented: "Our Company's focus on service excellence, strong banking relationships and financial solutions for individuals and businesses were keys to a strong financial performance in the second quarter and first half. While interest rates have had an impact on banking activity, our robust capabilities combined with our team's commitment to 'going the extra mile' for clients has supported strong client retention and generated a diverse revenue stream.
"Our residential mortgage lending group turned in an exceptional performance, particularly given low home inventories and the interest rate environment. The reputation the Bank has built over the years for professional service, loan origination and timely processing has positioned the Bank as a lender of choice in our markets.
"Positive financial contributions from commercial banking reflected the strength of our relationship management and attention to providing value for clients. Integrated banking solutions that incorporate deposits, card services, and sophisticated electronic cash management products create value for clients and provide the Company with a variety of revenue sources. With sophisticated capabilities backed by experienced, responsive commercial bankers, we believe Bank of the James is well positioned to attract larger businesses and further broaden our commercial client base.
"A primary focus throughout the organization is continuous improvement in productivity and efficiency through reduced expenses to maximize the value of the revenues we generate. This focus was reflected in the second quarter of 2023 as the efficiency ratio improved to 73.0% from 74.7% a year earlier. Return on average assets increased to 1.08% from 0.89% a year earlier and return on average equity rose to 19.7% from 12.7% a year earlier.
"Maintaining strong asset quality through diligent credit management and monitoring processes has contributed to quality earnings. We believe that our asset quality and liquidity have positioned us to continue to operate safely and soundly in the current environment.
"As always, the Company and its Board of Directors pay close attention to growing shareholder value. Results in the first half of 2023 reflected increased retained earnings, total stockholders' equity and book value. Our historical practice of issuing quarterly cash dividends to shareholders, and the completion of two share buyback programs in the past year that enhanced earnings per share by $0.03 this quarter, have contributed to providing a balanced return for shareholders."
Second Quarter, First Half of 2023 Highlights
- Total interest income of $9.58 million in the second quarter and $18.68 million in the first half of 2023 increased 26% and 29% compared with the respective periods of 2022. The year-over-year growth primarily reflected commercial loan rate adjustments to keep pace with the rising interest rate environment, an increase in the size of the investment portfolio, and growth of retained residential mortgages.
- Net interest income increased 3% in the second quarter of 2023 and 11% in the first half of 2023 compared to the respective periods in 2022, primarily reflecting higher interest income partially offset by significantly higher interest expense in the rising rate environment.
- Net interest margin and net interest spread increased in the second quarter and first half of 2023 compared with the comparable periods of 2022.
- Total noninterest income increased to $3.44 million in the second quarter of 2023, up from $3.03 million a year earlier, primarily reflecting continuing commercial treasury services income growth and wealth management fee contributions from PWW. Noninterest income in the first half of 2023 declined slightly compared with the first half of 2022, primarily reflecting lower gains on sale of residential mortgages as the Company has retained a greater number of originated purchase mortgages.
- Loans, net of the allowance for credit losses, were $610.42 million compared with $605.37 million at December 31, 2022, highlighted by an increase in the Company's residential mortgage loan portfolio since December 31, 2022.
- Asset quality remained strong, with a ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans of 0.07% at June 30, 2023 and minimal levels of nonperforming loans and other real estate owned (OREO).
- Total deposits grew to $867.09 million at June 30, 2023 compared with $848.14 million at December 31, 2022.
- On July 18, 2023 the Company's board of directors approved a quarterly dividend of $0.08 per share to stockholders of record as of September 1, 2023 to be paid on September 15, 2023.
- Measures of shareholder value increased, with book value per share rising to $11.61 at June 30, 3023 from $10.85 at December 31, 2022 and total stockholders' equity rising to $52.73 million from $50.23 million. The Company's most recent repurchase plan was completed in the second quarter of 2023. In conjunction with a previous repurchase plan, the Company repurchased just under 4% of its outstanding common stock since August 2022.
Second Quarter, First Half of 2023 Operational Review
Net interest income after a $254,000 recovery of credit losses for the quarter ended June 30, 2023 was $7.60 million compared with net interest income after a $300,000 recovery of credit losses of $7.42 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. For the six months of 2023, net interest income after recovery of credit losses was $15.10 million compared with net interest income after recovery of credit losses of $14.11 million for the six months of 2022.
Total interest income increased to $9.58 million in the second quarter of 2023 compared with $7.60 million a year earlier. For the six months of 2023, total interest income was $18.68 million compared with $14.51 million for the six months of 2022. Both 2023 periods reflected moderate organic loan growth and interest rate increases.
The interest rate adjustment related to variable rate loans along with an increase in the Fed Funds rate continued to have a significant positive impact on the yields earned on interest earning assets and margins. The yield on interest earning assets in the second quarter of 2023 was 4.31%, up from 3.19% a year earlier. The interest spread was 3.08% compared with 2.93% a year earlier. Net interest margin was 3.30% in the second quarter of 2023 compared with 2.99% in the second quarter of 2022.
For the six months of 2023, the yield on interest earning assets was 4.24% compared with 3.14% for the six months of 2022. The interest spread was 3.22% compared with 2.87% for the six months of 2023 and 2022, respectively. Net interest margin was 3.40% compared with 2.92% for the six months of 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Total interest expense in the second quarter and first half of 2023 increased significantly compared with the 2022 periods, reflecting increased levels of interest-paying deposits and higher deposit rates commensurate with the prevailing interest rate environment. Total interest expense in the second quarter of 2023 was $2.24 million compared with $474,000 a year earlier, while total interest expense in the first half of 2023 was $3.69 million compared with $999,000 a year earlier.
J. Todd Scruggs, Executive Vice President and CFO, commented: "Although rising interest expense continues to put pressure on margins, we believe our decision to increase rates on new loans along with the repricing of some current variable rate loans resulted in our interest income increasing more than our interest expense. We have consistently grown deposits, which, while adding to interest expense, continue to represent the most cost-effective source to fund lending."
Noninterest income in the second quarter of 2023 rose 14% to $3.44 million compared with $3.03 million in the second quarter of 2022. For the six months of 2023, noninterest income was $6.49 million compared with $6.67 million a year earlier. Noninterest income in both periods of 2023 was highlighted by growth in service charges, fees and commissions, which includes income from debit card activity and corporate treasury services, and wealth management fees contributed by PWW's investment management activity. The increase was offset in part by a decrease in gains on sale of loans.
Noninterest expense in the second quarter of 2023 was $7.88 million compared with $7.59 a year earlier. The first half of 2023 noninterest expense was $15.95 million compared with $15.24 million in the first half of 2022. Both 2023 periods reflected increases in professional and outside expenses (specifically data processing fees). The receipt in April 2023 of $287,000 in insurance proceeds related to a fraud loss in the fourth quarter of 2022 reduced our noninterest expense for both periods in 2023. In addition, the increase for the second quarter was mitigated by a decrease in salaries and employee benefits.
The Company continued to demonstrate positive productivity trends, with return on average equity (ROAE) improving to 19.65% in the second quarter of 2023 compared with 12.68% in the second quarter of 2022, while return on average assets (ROAA) was 1.08%, compared with 0.89% a year earlier. ROAE and ROAA in the first half of 2023 demonstrated similar improvement from a year earlier. The efficiency ratio improved in both periods of 2023 compared with the 2022 periods.
Balance Sheet: Liquidity, Asset Quality
Total assets were $950.90 million at June 30, 2023 compared with $928.57 million at December 31, 2022.
Loans, net of allowance for credit losses, were $610.42 million at June 30, 2023 compared with $605.37 million at December 31, 2022. Net loans decreased approximately $8 million from net loans at March 31, 2023, primarily reflecting commercial loan declines partially offset by retained residential mortgage growth.
Commercial real estate loans (owner occupied and non-owner occupied and excluding construction loans) were approximately $312.30 million at June 30, 2023 compared with $341.89 million at December 31, 2022. Commercial loans (primarily C&I loans) were $69.90 million at June 30, 2023 compared with $95.90 million at December 31, 2022. Commercial construction and residential construction loan portfolios grew slightly in the first half of 2023.
Michael A. Syrek, President of the Bank, commented: "The asset quality and diversity of the commercial loan portfolio continues to reflect a variety of clients and business and economic sectors. Maintaining high standards for credit quality and risk management is of utmost importance, with a strong focus on full-service banking relationships with clients.
"Emphasizing our integrated approach to commercial banking, which includes depository options and a wide range of electronic treasury and cash management services to support customers' financial activities, has broadened customer relationships. Our sophisticated capabilities and our bankers' expertise and commitment to service allow us to meet the banking requirements of larger corporate customers, which is an exciting development."
Asset quality has remained strong and stable, with a ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans of 0.07% at June 30, 2023. The allowance for credit losses on loans to total loans was 1.23% at June 30, 2023 compared with 1.22% at December 31, 2022. The Bank adopted the current expected credit loss (CECL) model for calculating its allowance for credit losses on January 1, 2023.
Total nonperforming loans were $415,000 at June 30, 2023, down 34% from $633,000 at December 31, 2022. Total nonperforming assets were relatively stable at $915,000 at June 30, 2023 compared with $1.20 million at December 31, 2022.
Total deposits at June 30, 2023 were $867.09 million compared with $848.14 million at December 31, 2022. Total deposits reflected the judicious addition of time deposits, partially offset by a modest decline in core deposits (noninterest-bearing demand, NOW, savings and money market accounts). Lower-cost core deposits represented 78% of total deposits.
Maintaining strong liquidity continues to be a focus, with the addition of cash and cash equivalents in the second quarter of 2023 and the continuance of off-balance sheet options.
The Company grew measures of shareholder value. Some of these, including book value per share and stockholders' equity, continue to be negatively impacted by market value changes in our available-for-sale securities portfolio, reflecting the impact of higher interest rates. These mark-to-market losses are excluded when calculating the Bank's regulatory capital. The available-for-sale securities portfolio is composed primarily of securities with implicit government guarantees, including U.S. Treasuries and U.S. agency obligations, and other highly-rated debt instruments. Consequently, management does not believe that the impairment is other than temporary. The Company does not expect to realize the unrealized losses as it has the intent and ability to hold the securities until their recovery, which may be at maturity. The duration of the Company's overall securities portfolio is approximately 6 years.
Total retained earnings were $33.22 million at June 30, 2023, up from $31.03 million at December 31, 2022. Total stockholders' equity rose to $52.73 million at June 30, 2023 compared with $50.23 million at December 31, 2022. Book value per share increased to $11.61 at June 30, 2023 from $10.85 at December 31, 2022. The Company continued its practice of paying a quarterly cash dividend to shareholders. As previously noted, the Company's now-completed stock repurchase programs have contributed to earnings and generated shareholder value.
