Results of Operations

Net Income

Net income was $16.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, a decrease of $466,000, or 2.8%, from $16.7 million for the third quarter of 2024. This decrease was primarily due to decrease in noninterest income of $1.3 million, an increase in noninterest expense of $666,000 and a decrease in net interest income of $229,000, offset by a decrease in income tax expense of $1.3 million and a decrease in provision for credit losses of $380,000. Net income increased by $4.9 million, or 43.1%, in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to net income of $11.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2023. This increase was due to an increase in net interest income of $3.9 million, an increase in noninterest income of $609,000, a decrease in provision for credit losses of $580,000 and a decrease in income tax expense of $172,000, offset by an increase in noninterest expense of $411,000.

Net income was $64.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, an increase of $12.9 million, or 25.0%, from $51.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was due to an increase in net interest income of $16.7 million and an increase in noninterest income of $4.9 million, offset by an increase in noninterest expense of $5.7 million, an increase in income tax expense of $2.5 million and an increase in provision for credit losses of $531,000.

Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin

Interest income totaled $52.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 2.3%, from the previous quarter, primarily due to a $40.3 million decrease in the average total investments balance, a 22 basis points decrease in the total investments yield and a 12 basis points decrease in the loan yield, offset by a $22.0 million increase in average loan balances. As compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, interest income for the fourth quarter of 2024 increased by $1.9 million, or 3.8%, primarily due to a 20 basis points increase in the loan yield coupled with a $61.9 million increase in average loan balances.

Interest expense totaled $22.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2024, a decrease of $990,000, or 4.2%, from the previous quarter, primarily due to a 16 basis points decrease in deposit costs coupled with a $10.2 million decrease in the average deposit balances. As compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, interest expense for the fourth quarter of 2024 decreased by $2.0 million or 8.1%, primarily due to a 50 basis points decrease in deposit costs coupled with a $27.0 million decrease in average deposit balances, offset by a 58 basis points increase in borrowing costs and a $60.3 million increase in the average borrowing balance. The Company currently has interest rate derivative agreements totaling $850.0 million that are designated as cash flow hedges of our deposit accounts indexed to the Effective Federal Funds Rate (currently 4.33%). The weighted average pay rate for these interest rate derivatives is 2.29%. During the fourth quarter of 2024, we recorded a credit to interest expense of $5.1 million from the benefit received on these interest rate derivatives compared to a benefit of $6.4 million and $3.1 million recorded during the third quarter of 2024 and the fourth quarter of 2023, respectively.

The net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2024 was 3.57% compared to 3.58% for the previous quarter, a decrease of one basis point. The yield on average interest-earning assets for the fourth quarter of 2024 decreased by 11 basis points to 6.25% from 6.36% for the previous quarter, while the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities for the fourth quarter of 2024 decreased by 14 basis points to 3.55% from 3.69% for the previous quarter. Average earning assets decreased by $18.3 million from the previous quarter, due to a decrease in average total investments of $40.3 million, offset by an increase of $22.0 million in average loan balances. Average interest-bearing liabilities decreased by $10.9 million from the previous quarter as average interest-bearing deposits decreased by $10.2 million and average borrowings decreased slightly by $677,000.

As compared to the same period in 2023, the net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2024 increased by 40 basis points to 3.57% from 3.17%, primarily due to an 11 basis points increase in the yield on average interest-earning assets of $3.35 billion and a 36 basis points decrease in the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities of $2.52 billion. Average earning assets for the fourth quarter of 2024 increased by $76.1 million from the fourth quarter of 2023, due to a $61.9 million increase in average loans and a $14.3 million increase in average total investments. Average interest-bearing liabilities for the fourth quarter of 2024 increased by $33.3 million from the fourth quarter of 2023, driven by the increase in average borrowings of $60.3 million, offset by a $27.0 decrease in average interest-bearing deposits.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2024 was $5.3 million, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 19.6%, from the third quarter of 2024, primarily due to lower gains on sale from Small Business Administration ("SBA") and residential mortgage loans, servicing income from SBA loans, mortgage loan fees from lower volume and other income from unrealized losses recognized on our equity securities, offset by higher servicing income from mortgage loans. SBA loan sales totaled $19.2 million (sales premium of 6.25%) during the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to $28.9 million (sales premium of 6.67%) during the third quarter of 2024. Mortgage loan originations totaled $103.3 million during the fourth quarter 2024 compared to $122.4 million during the third quarter of 2024. No mortgage loans were sold during the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to $54.2 million of mortgage loan sales (average sales premium of 1.03%) during the third quarter of 2024. During the fourth quarter of 2024, we recorded a $31,000 fair value adjustment charge on our SBA servicing asset compared to a fair value gain of $202,000 during the third quarter of 2024. We also recorded a $232,000 fair value impairment recovery on our mortgage servicing asset during the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to a $252,000 fair value impairment charge recorded during the third quarter of 2024.

Compared to the same period in 2023, noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2024 increased by $609,000, or 12.9%, primarily due to higher gains on sale of SBA loans and servicing income from our mortgage loans, offset by decreases in mortgage loan fees from lower volume and servicing income from SBA loans, as well as lower other income from unrealized losses recognized on our equity securities. During the fourth quarter of 2023, we recorded a $147,000 fair value gain on our SBA servicing asset.

Noninterest income for the year ended December 31, 2024 totaled $23.1 million, an increase of $4.9 million, or 26.7%, from the year ended December 31, 2023, primarily due to higher mortgage loan fees from higher volume, as well as higher gains on sale and servicing income from mortgage loans, offset by decreases in gains on sale and servicing income of SBA loans.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2024 totaled $14.3 million, an increase of $666,000, or 4.9%, from $13.7 million for the third quarter of 2024. This increase was primarily attributable to the increase in salary and employee benefits which included higher commissions from higher loan volume and higher employee salaries, 401k match and FICA taxes, partially offset by lower other real estate owned expenses. Compared to the fourth quarter of 2023, noninterest expense during the fourth quarter of 2024 increased by $411,000, or 3.0%, primarily due to higher salary and employee benefits, occupancy expense, data processing expense, security expense and loan related expenses, offset by lower FDIC insurance premiums and professional fees.

Noninterest expense for the year ended December 31, 2024 totaled $53.4 million, an increase of $5.7 million, or 11.8%, from $47.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. This increase was primarily attributable to increases in salaries and employee benefits due to the increase in the number of full time equivalent employees during 2024, higher commissions from higher loan volume and higher employee insurance and stock based compensation. We also recognized higher expenses related to depreciation, rent, data processing, security, audit and accounting services, other real estate owned and FDIC insurance premiums. These expense increases were partially offset by lower loan related expenses and legal fees.

The Company's efficiency ratio was 40.5% for the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to 37.0% and 45.1% for the third quarter of 2024 and fourth quarter of 2023, respectively. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the efficiency ratio was 37.8 % compared to 39.9% for the year ended December 31, 2023.

Income Tax Expense

The Company's effective tax rate for the fourth quarter of 2024 was 22.1%, compared to 26.3% for the third quarter of 2024 and 29.7% for the fourth quarter of 2023. The Company's effective tax rate for the year ended December 31, 2024 was 26.1% compared to 28.3% for the year ended December 31, 2023. The decrease in the effective tax rate during the fourth quarter of 2024 was due to a tax provision to tax return adjustment recorded for our 2023 state tax returns filed during the third and fourth quarter of 2024.

The provision expense recorded during the fourth quarter of 2024 was primarily due to the increase in reserves allocated to our individually analyzed loans, as well as the increase in general reserves allocated to our commercial and industrial loan portfolio. Annualized net charge-offs to average loans for the fourth quarter of 2024 was 0.01%, compared to net charge-offs of 0.00% for the third quarter of 2024 and 0.04% for the fourth quarter of 2023.

Statements in this press release regarding future events and our expectations and beliefs about our future financial performance and financial condition, as well as trends in our business and markets, constitute "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of, and subject to the protections of, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are not historical in nature and may be identified by references to a future period or periods by the use of the words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," "plan," "estimate," "project," "outlook," or words of similar meaning, or future or conditional verbs such as "will," "would," "should," "could," or "may." The forward-looking statements in this press release should not be relied on because they are based on current information and on assumptions that we make about future events and circumstances that are subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties that are often difficult to predict and beyond our control. As a result of those risks and uncertainties, and other factors, our actual financial results in the future could differ, possibly materially, from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this press release and could cause us to make changes to our future plans. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to: the impact of current and future economic conditions, particularly those affecting the financial services industry, including the effects of declines in the real estate market, high unemployment rates, inflationary pressures, changes in interest rates and slowdowns in economic growth, as well as the financial stress on borrowers as a result of the foregoing; potential impacts of adverse developments in the banking industry highlighted by high-profile bank failures, including impacts on customer confidence, deposit outflows, liquidity and the regulatory response thereto; risks arising from media coverage of the banking industry; risks arising from perceived instability in the banking sector; changes in the interest rate environment, including changes to the federal funds rate, which could have an adverse effect on the Company's profitability; changes in prices, values and sales volumes of residential and commercial real estate; developments in our mortgage banking business, including loan modifications, general demand, and the effects of judicial or regulatory requirements or guidance; competition in our markets that may result in increased funding costs or reduced earning assets yields, thus reducing margins and net interest income; legislation or regulatory changes which could adversely affect the ability of the consolidated Company to conduct business combinations or new operations; changes in tax laws; significant turbulence or a disruption in the capital or financial markets and the effect of a fall in stock market prices on our investment securities; the effects of war or other conflicts including the impacts related to or resulting from Russia's military action in Ukraine or the conflict in Israel and the surrounding region; and adverse results from current or future litigation, regulatory examinations or other legal and/or regulatory actions, including as a result of the Company's participation in and execution of government programs. Therefore, the Company can give no assurance that the results contemplated in the forward-looking statements will be realized. Additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties to which our business and future financial performance are subject is contained in the sections titled "Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors" in the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q on file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), and in other documents that we file with the SEC from time to time, which are available on the SEC's website, http://www.sec.gov. In addition, our actual financial results in the future may differ from those currently expected due to additional risks and uncertainties of which we are not currently aware or which we do not currently view as, but in the future may become, material to our business or operating results. Due to these and other possible uncertainties and risks, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this press release or to make predictions based solely on historical financial performance. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law.
