MARTINSVILLE, VA / ACCESS Newswire / April 24, 2025 / Carter Bankshares, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ:CARE), the holding company of Carter Bank (the "Bank") today announced quarterly net income of $9.0 million, or $0.39 diluted earnings per share ("EPS"), for the first quarter of 2025 compared to net income of $8.3 million, or $0.36 diluted EPS, for the fourth quarter of 2024 and net income of $5.8 million, or $0.25 diluted EPS, for the first quarter of 2024. Pre-tax pre-provision income1 was $9.0 million for the first quarter of 2025, $5.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2024 and $7.2 million for the first quarter of 2024.
The Company's financial results continue to be significantly impacted by loans in the Bank's Other segment of the Company's loan portfolio, the significant majority of which have been on nonaccrual status since the second quarter of 2023. The Bank's loans, now reduced to judgments, relate to various entities in which James C. Justice, II has an interest (collectively, the "Justice Entities"), remain the Bank's largest credit relationship and comprise the significant majority of the Other segment with an aggregate principal balance of $245.1 million as of March 31, 2025. Interest income was negatively impacted by $6.8 million during the first quarter of 2025, $7.9 million during the fourth quarter of 2024, and $9.3 million during the first quarter of 2024, due to these credits being on nonaccrual status. Interest income has been negatively impacted by $71.9 million in the aggregate since placement of these credits on nonaccrual status during the second quarter of 2023.
The Company has agreed upon a pathway of curtailment and payoff of the Bank's credit relationship with the Justice Entities. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company received $6.9 million of curtailment payments. As of March 31, 2025, $56.8 million of aggregate curtailment payments made by the Justice Entities to the Bank have decreased the aggregate nonperforming loan ("NPL") balance from $301.9 million as of March 31, 2024 to $245.1 million as of March 31, 2025. For additional information regarding the Bank's credit relationship with the Justice Entities, see "Credit Quality."
First Quarter 2025 Financial Highlights
Total portfolio loans increased $62.7 million, or 7.0%, on an annualized basis, to $3.7 billion at March 31, 2025 from December 31, 2024 and increased $178.4 million, or 5.1% from March 31, 2024;
The allowance for credit losses to total portfolio loans was 1.99%, 2.09% and 2.75% at March 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively. The change compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 was primarily driven by a decline in the Other segment reserve rate from 12.01% to 11.05%, higher curtailment payments in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2025, offset by loan growth during the first quarter of 2025;
During the first quarter of 2025, the Company recorded a $1.9 million gain on a bank owned life insurance, ("BOLI") death benefit, within other noninterest income, and surrendered $10.5 million of its BOLI. The Company initiated this surrender strategy with its current BOLI portfolio to be exchanged to a new portfolio to take advantage of enhanced credit ratings and better yields due to improving BOLI markets;
Total deposits increased $47.5 million, or 4.6% on an annualized basis, compared to December 31, 2024 and increased $370.4 million, or 9.7%, compared to March 31, 2024;
Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") borrowings decreased $15.0 million and $255.5 million to $55.0 million at March 31, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively;
Net interest income totaled $30.1 million, an increase of $1.0 million, or 3.4% compared to the prior quarter, and an increase of $1.7 million, or 6.0% compared to the year ago quarter. Net interest income was positively impacted by the short-term interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve from September through December 2024. Net interest margin, on a fully taxable equivalent ("FTE") basis3, increased 12 basis points to 2.70% for the first quarter of 2025, compared to 2.58% for the prior quarter and increased 10 basis points from the year ago quarter. Net interest income and net interest margin continue to be significantly impacted by the Bank's largest lending relationship remaining on nonaccrual status since the second quarter of 2023;
Nonperforming loans ("NPLs") increased by $2.1 million to $261.4 million at March 31, 2025compared to December 31, 2024. NPLs to total portfolio loans were 7.09% at March 31, 2025, 7.15% at December 31, 2024 and 8.76% at March 31, 2024; and
The efficiency ratio was 75.7%, 83.6% and 78.5%, and the adjusted efficiency ratio (non-GAAP)4 was 78.7%, 82.8%, and 79.0% for the quarters ended March 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively. The efficiency ratio was impacted by the Bank's largest lending relationship that was placed in nonaccrual status during the second quarter of 2023 and one-time gain on death benefit and expenses related to the surrender of BOLI.
"Our 2025 focus is building and enhancing relationships through core deposit acquisition, diversified loan growth and noninterest income expansion. In the first quarter we registered strong deposit growth, from increases in interest-bearing checking accounts and money market accounts. In addition, we received all necessary approvals for the Branch Purchase we announced in the fourth quarter of 2024. We anticipate closing that transaction in May. That transaction will add close to $60 million in funding to our deposit base. We are excited to welcome those First Reliance customers to Carter Bank. We were also pleased to see net interest margin expansion as our cost of funds declined as a result of the Federal Reserve rate cuts in late 2024. Our balance sheet remains slightly liability sensitive and is well positioned so that further declines in short-term interest rates should continue to positively benefit our net interest margin. We also expect that our net interest margin will return to a more normalized level once the large nonperforming lending relationship is fully resolved. Capital and liquidity levels continue to be strong, and loan production was solid in the first quarter. Our loan pipeline remains healthy and we are expecting a tailwind from prior construction lending that will come online over the coming 12 to 18 months as projects progress," stated Litz H. Van Dyke, Chief Executive Officer.
Van Dyke continued, "Although our large nonperforming credit relationship continues to have a negative impact on our financial and credit metrics, aside from this impact, our fundamentals, financial performance, and asset quality metrics all remain solid. We are committed to resolving this lending relationship in a manner that best protects the Company, the Bank, and shareholders. We continue to believe we are well positioned for a strong 2025."
Operating Highlights
Credit Quality
NPLs as a percentage of total portfolio loans were 7.09%,7.15% and 8.76% at March 31, 2025, December 31, 2024 and March 31, 2024, respectively. At March 31, 2025, NPLs increased $2.1 million to $261.4 million compared to December 31, 2024. The increase during the quarter was due to the transfer of a $9.5 million commercial real estate ("CRE") relationship, consisting of four loans, to nonaccrual status, partially offset by $6.9 million of curtailment payments made by the Bank's largest NPL credit relationship.
Since the Bank's largest lending relationship was transferred to nonaccrual status, in the second quarter of 2023 due to loan maturities and failure to pay in full, this relationship's NPL balance has decreased from $301.9 million at June 30, 2023 to $245.1 million at March 31, 2025. This NPL relationship represents 93.7% of total NPLs and 6.6% of total portfolio loans at March 31, 2025. The Company continues to believe it is well secured based on the net carrying value of the credit relationship and is appropriately reserved for potential credit losses with respect to all such loans based on information currently available. However, the Company cannot give any assurance as to the timing or amount of future payments or collections on such loans or that the Company will ultimately collect all amounts contractually due under the terms of such loans.
The specific reserves with respect to the Bank's largest NPL credit relationship were $27.1 million at March 31, 2025 compared to $30.3 million at December 31, 2024. The decline during the first quarter of 2025 was driven by the aforementioned curtailment payments and updated analysis of the credit relationship. The Company uses the discounted cash flow model with updated assumptions and inputs regarding the credit relationship, legal risk and related risks. The updated analysis and the impact on the specific reserves significantly contributed to the $2.0 million (recovery) for credit losses during the first quarter of 2025 as compared to the prior quarter.
During the first quarter of 2025, the (recovery) provision for credit losses was a recovery of $(2.0) million compared to a recovery of $(5.1) million during the fourth quarter of 2024 and a provision for credit losses of $16 thousand during the first quarter of 2024. The change compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 was primarily driven by a decline in the Other segment reserve rate from 12.01% to 11.05%, higher curtailment payments in the fourth quarter of 2024 compared to the first quarter of 2025, offset by loan growth in the first quarter of 2025.
During the first quarter of 2025, the (recovery) provision for unfunded commitments was a recovery of $(114) thousand compared to a provision of $81 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2024 and a recovery of $(43) thousand in the first quarter of 2024. The decline during the first quarter of 2025 was due to decreased commitments in construction loans.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income for the first quarter of 2025 increased $1.0 million, or 3.4%, to $30.1 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 and increased $1.7 million, or 6.0% compared to the first quarter of 2024. The increase during the current quarter was driven by lower funding costs and higher yields on interest-earning assets. Net interest income was positively impacted by the recent short-term interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve.
Net interest margin, on a FTE basis3, increased 12 basis points to 2.70% compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, and increased 10 basis points compared to the first quarter of 2024. The increase in net interest income, compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, was primarily due to a 14 basis point decline in funding costs and a one basis point increase in the yield on average interest-earning assets.
Total interest-bearing deposit costs decreased 15 basis points to 2.86% compared to 3.01% in the fourth quarter of 2024, while the balance of average interest-bearing deposits increased $48.6 million. The lower interest-bearing funding costs were positively impacted by the Federal Reserve's cut of short-term interest rates by 100 basis points beginning from September 2024 to December 2024. Total average borrowings decreased $1.7 million to $80.3 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 due to a FHLB borrowing maturity. The yield on total interest-earning assets increased one basis point to 5.00% compared to 4.99% in the fourth quarter of 2024.
Our balance sheet is currently exhibiting characteristics of a slightly liability sensitive position due to the short-term nature of our deposit portfolio and FHLB borrowings. Specifically, 73.5% of our CD portfolio and 54.5% of our outstanding FHLB borrowings will mature and reprice over the next twelve months. This strategy gives us flexibility to manage the structure and pricing of our deposit and borrowing portfolios to reduce future funding costs should the Federal Open Market Committee ("FOMC") continue cutting short-term rates in the future.
Noninterest Income
For the first quarter of 2025, total noninterest income increased $1.5 million, or 28.6%, to $6.9 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 and increased $1.9 million, or 36.8%, compared to the first quarter of 2024.
The increases in noninterest income compared to both the fourth quarter of 2024 and the year ago quarter primarily related to an increase in other noninterest income as a result of a $1.9 million gain on a BOLI death benefit. Also impacting other noninterest income, were variances in unrealized gains (losses) of $0.3 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 and $0.1 million on the community development fund due to an increase in market values compared first quarter of 2024. Offsetting these increases in other noninterest income in the first quarter of 2025 compared to fourth quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2024 were declines of $0.7 million and $0.3 million in insurance commissions, respectively, due to lower activity in the first quarter of 2025.
Noninterest Expense
For the first quarter of 2025, total noninterest expense decreased $0.8 million, or 2.9% to $28.0 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2024 and increased $1.8 million from the first quarter of 2024.
Compared to the fourth quarter of 2024, the most significant decreases were $1.2 million in salaries and employee benefits and $0.2 million in professional and legal fees, offset by increases of $0.3 million in occupancy expenses and $0.3 million in other noninterest expenses. Salaries and employee benefits decreased $1.2 million primarily due to 2024 vacation carryover, lower medical costs and higher incentive accruals in the previous quarter. The decline in professional and legal fees primarily relates to year-end accruals in the fourth quarter of 2024. The increase in occupancy expense was due to new software licenses and maintenance contracts in the first quarter of 2025. The increase in other noninterest expense relates to a $0.3 million 1035 exchange fee as a direct result of the early surrender of one of the Company's BOLI policies recorded in the first quarter of 2025.
Total noninterest expense increased $1.8 million compared to the first quarter of 2024 due to the following increases; $0.9 million in other noninterest expenses, $0.7 million in occupancy expenses, $0.6 million in advertising expenses and $0.6 million in data processing expenses. These increases were offset by the following decreases compared to the first quarter of 2024; $0.5 million in salaries and employee benefits and $0.3 million in professional and legal fees. The increase in other noninterest expense compared to the first quarter of 2024, relates to the above mentioned 1035 exchange fee, as well as, a net gain of $0.3 million on two other real estate owned ("OREO") properties of which were sold in the first quarter of 2024. The decreases in salaries and employee benefits resulted from higher deferred compensation costs, offset by increased medical expenses, annual merit increases, and incentives during the three months ended March 31, 2025. The increase in advertising expenses primarily related to contributions made during the first quarter of 2025 and additional advertising expenses related to the launching of the new brand refresh during the fourth quarter of 2024. Data processing expenses increased due to general inflationary cost increases for existing and new service agreements entered into in the beginning of 2025.
Financial Condition
Total assets increased $41.1 million, to $4.7 billion at March 31, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024. Cash and due from banks decreased $42.2 million to $89.0 million at March 31, 2025 compared to $131.2 million at December 31, 2024. The available-for-sale securities portfolio increased $27.0 million compared to December 31, 2024 and is currently 15.9% of total assets at March 31, 2025 compared to 15.4% of total assets at December 31, 2024. The increase is due to redeploying excess cash into higher yielding securities.
Total portfolio loans increased $62.7 million, or 7.0%, on an annualized basis, to $3.7 billion at March 31, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024. The increase in loans primarily related to growth of $46.0 million in CRE loans, $23.8 million in residential mortgages and $3.5 million in C&I loans offset by a decrease of $6.9 million in the Other segment due to the aforementioned curtailment payments, as well as a decrease of $3.6 million in construction loans and a slight decrease in other consumer of $0.1 million compared to December 31, 2024.
During the first quarter of 2025, the Company surrendered $10.5 million of its BOLI. The Company initiated this strategy with its current BOLI portfolio to be exchanged to a new portfolio to take advantage of enhanced credit ratings and better yields due to improving BOLI markets. The surrender was an opportunity to retire below market yielding assets and reinvest the proceeds from the surrender in higher yielding non-BOLI related assets on the balance sheet.
Total deposits increased $47.5 million to $4.2 billion at March 31, 2025 compared to December 31, 2024. Deposits increased primarily due to growth in interest-bearing demand accounts of $67.1 million, and an increase of $16.2 million in money market accounts, offset by decreases of $31.0 million in CDs, $2.7 million in noninterest-bearing demand accounts and $2.1 million in savings accounts.
FHLB borrowings decreased $15.0 million and $255.5 million to $55.0 million at March 31, 2025 compared to $70.0 million at December 31, 2024 and $310.5 million at March 31, 2024, respectively. The Company had no outstanding federal funds purchased at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, approximately 81.6% of our total deposits of $4.2 billion were insured under standard Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance coverage limits, and approximately 18.4% of our total deposits were uninsured deposits over the standard FDIC insurance coverage limit, respectively.
Capitalization and Liquidity
The Company remained well capitalized at March 31, 2025. The Company's Tier 1 Capital ratio was 11.01% at March 31, 2025 as compared to 10.88% at December 31, 2024. The Company's leverage ratio was 9.67% at March 31, 2025 as compared to 9.56% at December 31, 2024. The Company's Total Risk-Based Capital ratio was 12.27% at March 31, 2025 as compared to 12.13% at December 31, 2024.
At March 31, 2025, funding sources accessible to the Company include borrowing availability at the FHLB, equal to 25.0% of the Company's assets or approximately $1.2 billion, subject to the amount of eligible collateral pledged, of which the Company is eligible to borrow up to an additional $743.2 million. The Company has unsecured facilities with three other correspondent financial institutions totaling $30.0 million, a fully secured facility with one other correspondent financial institution totaling $45.0 million, and access to the institutional CD market. The Company did not have outstanding borrowings on these federal funds lines as of March 31, 2025.
