Old Point Releases First Quarter 2023 Results

Hampton, VA, April 27, 2023 (PRNewswire) – Old Point Financial Corporation (the Company or Old Point) (NASDAQ "OPOF") reported net income of $3.1 million and earnings per diluted common share of $0.62 for the first quarter of 2023 compared to net income of $2.0 million and earnings per diluted common share of $0.39 for the first quarter of 2022.

Robert Shuford, Jr., Chairman, President and CEO of the Company and Old Point National Bank (the Bank) said, “Old Point’s first quarter results reflect our consistent and traditional banking franchise and the strength of our balance sheet. During a period characterized by heightened market volatility, we maintained strong asset quality, increased our capital position, and grew loans and deposits. We continued to generate strong earnings in the first quarter of 2023, although NIM began to tighten due to the current interest rate environment and our funding needs.  Deposit costs, while rising, continue to show the benefits of our strong deposit base which is very seasoned and diversified. During our 100^th anniversary year, Old Point remains focused on serving the needs of our community and customers, maintaining asset quality, capital levels, and liquidity sources, while carefully identifying opportunities that align with our forward-looking strategies.”   

Highlights of the first quarter are as follows:

For more information about financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with GAAP, please see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliation of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below.

Total assets of $1.4 billion as of March 31, 2023 increased by $60.8 million from December 31, 2022. Net loans held for investment increased $53.2 million, or 5.2% from December 31, 2022 to $1.1 billion at March 31, 2023, driven by diversified loan growth in the following segments: construction, land development, and other land loans of $8.7 million, residential real estate of $17.1 million, and indirect automobile of $25.0 million. Securities available-for-sale, at fair value, decreased $1.6 million from December 31, 2022 to $224.0 million at March 31, 2023.

Total deposits of $1.2 billion as of March 31, 2023 increased $43.6 million, or 3.8%, from December 31, 2022. Noninterest-bearing deposits decreased $13.4 million, or 3.2%, savings deposits increased $45.0 million, or 7.7%, and time deposits increased $12.1 million, or 7.9%, driven by depositors seeking increased yields. Overnight repurchase agreements, federal funds purchased, and short-term Federal Home Loan Bank advances increased $14.6 million to $77.0 million at March 31, 2023 from $62.5 million at December 31, 2022, as the Company used additional borrowings to help fund loan growth during the first quarter.

The Company’s total stockholders’ equity at March 31, 2023 increased $3.9 million, or 3.9%, from December 31, 2022 to $102.6 million. The increase was primarily related to improvement in unrealized losses in the market value of securities available-for-sale, which are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, and earnings, partially offset by the adoption of CECL. The unrealized loss in market value of securities available-for-sale was a result of rising market interest rates rather than credit quality issues.  The Company does not expect these unrealized losses to affect the earnings or regulatory capital of the Company or its subsidiaries. The Bank remains well capitalized with a Tier 1 Capital ratio of 11.12% at March 31, 2023 as compared to 10.82% at December 31, 2022. The Bank’s leverage ratio was 9.74% at March 31, 2023 as compared to 9.43% at December 31, 2022.

Non-performing assets (NPAs) totaled $1.7 million as of March 31, 2023 compared to $4.8 million as of March 31, 2022 and $2.1 million at December 31, 2022. NPAs as a percentage of total assets was 0.12% at March 31, 2023, compared to 0.36% at March 31, 2022 and 0.15% at December 31, 2022. Non-accrual loans were $1.0 million at March 31, 2023, a decrease from $4.2 million at March 31, 2022 and $1.2 million at December 31, 2022. The decrease in non-accrual loans from the prior year comparative quarter was related to resolution of one large commercial relationship. Loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest decreased $118 thousand to $722 thousand at March 31, 2023 from $840 thousand at December 31, 2022 but increased $98 thousand from $624 thousand at March 31, 2022.

The Company recognized a provision for credit losses of $376 thousand during the first quarter of 2023 compared to $633 thousand during the fourth quarter of 2022 and $101 thousand during the first quarter of 2022. The provision for credit losses for the first quarter of 2023 reflected a provision of $563 thousand for loans and a recovery provision for unfunded commitments of $187 thousand. The allowance for credit losses (ACL) was $11.8 million and included an allowance for credit losses on loans of $11.6 million and a reserve for unfunded commitments of $214 thousand. The increase in the allowance for credit losses on loans during the first quarter of 2023 was due primarily to growth in the portfolio and the adoption of CECL, which resulted in an implementation adjustment on January 1, 2023 of $641 thousand. The allowance for credit losses on loans as a percentage of loans held for investment was 1.07% at March 31, 2023 compared to 1.11% at March 31, 2022 and 1.02% at December 31, 2022. Quarterly annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans outstanding was 0.07% for the first quarter of 2023, compared to 0.02% for the fourth quarter of 2022 and 0.21% for the first quarter of 2022. As of March 31, 2023, asset quality remains very strong with no significant changes in the overall credit quality of the loan portfolio.  Management believes the level of the allowance for credit losses is sufficient to absorb expected losses in the  loan portfolio; however, if elevated levels of risk are identified, provision for credit losses may increase in future periods.

Net interest income for the first quarter of 2023 was $12.8 million, a decrease of $96 thousand, or 0.7%, from the prior quarter and increase $3.2 million, or 33.0%, from the first quarter of 2022. The decrease from the linked quarter is due primarily to higher average interest-bearing liabilities at higher average rates partially offset by higher average earning asset balances at higher average yields. The increase from the prior-year comparative quarter was due primarily to: (i) deployment of lower yielding cash to fund growth in higher yielding loans and investments; (ii) higher average yields on earning asset balances due to the effect of rising market interest rates; partially offset by (iii) higher average interest-bearing liabilities at higher average rates.

The Net Interest Margin (NIM) for the first quarter of 2023 was 4.02%, a decrease from 4.14% for the linked quarter and an increase from 3.14% for the prior year quarter. On a fully tax-equivalent basis (FTE) (non-GAAP), NIM was 4.04%, compared to 4.17% for the fourth quarter of 2022 and 3.16% for the first quarter of 2022.  Average earning asset balances increased $45.2 million period-over-period with yields on average earning assets increasing 135 basis points due to deployment of liquidity into higher earning assets and the effects of the rising interest rate environment.  Average interest-bearing liabilities increased $61.2 million with costs increasing 68 basis points.  The higher interest cost on liabilities was due to higher interest rates on money market and time deposits as well as additional borrowing costs associated with federal funds purchased and short term FHLB advances during the period to help fund loan growth.

Average loans increased $192.0 million, or 22.2%, for the first quarter compared to the same period of 2022.  Average yields on loans and investment securities were 69 basis points and 154 basis points higher in the first quarter of 2023 due primarily to the effects of rising interest rates. During 2022 and continuing into 2023, market interest rates increased, and while the Company expects asset yields to continue to rise, the cost of funds is expected to rise at a faster pace. The extent to which rising interest rates will ultimately affect the Company’s NIM is uncertain. For more information about these FTE financial measures, please see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliation of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” below.

Total noninterest income was $3.4 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to $3.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 and $3.5 million for the first quarter of 2022. Increases during the first quarter of 2023 in fiduciary and asset management fees, mortgage banking income, and other service charges, commissions and fees were partially offset by decreases in service charges on deposit accounts and other operating income compared to the linked quarter. Although fiduciary and asset management fees, service charges on deposit accounts, other service charges, commissions and fees, and bank-owned life insurance increased compared to the prior year quarter, these increases were offset by lower mortgage banking income and other operating expense. The decrease in mortgage banking income for the first quarter of 2023 and the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2022 was due to declines in volume of mortgage originations attributable to changes in mortgage market conditions. Gains on sales of fixed assets of $1.7 million and losses on sales of available-for-sale securities of $1.9 million in a reinvestment strategy were recognized during the fourth quarter of 2022 which impacted the quarterly comparatives and were not repeated.

Noninterest expense totaled $12.2 million for the first quarter of 2023 compared to $12.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 and $10.7 million for the first quarter of 2022. The decrease from the linked quarter of $119 thousand was related increases in salary and benefits and employee professional development costs offset by decreases in all other noninterest expense areas. The increase over the prior year quarter was primarily driven by increased salary and benefit expense, data processing, ATM and other losses, and other operating expenses.  The increase in salary and benefits was primarily driven by the addition of revenue producing officers, a return to normalized position vacancy levels, incentive compensation expense, and lower deferred loan costs. The Company completed negotiations with a major vendor relationship during the fourth quarter of 2022 which began reducing certain existing cost structures during the first quarter of 2023 and will provide an opportunity for operational leverage for future growth at fixed cost levels. Several other major vendor contracts and relationships continue to be assessed and negotiated as a key component of efforts to reduce noninterest expense levels while improving operational efficiency.

For the first quarter of 2023, the Company declared dividends of $0.14 per share, representing a 7.7% increase from the prior quarter dividend of $0.13 per share. The dividend represents a payout ratio of 22.7% of earnings per share for the first quarter of 2023. The Board of Directors of the Company continually reviews the amount of cash dividends per share and the resulting dividend payout ratio in light of changes in economic conditions, current and future capital requirements, and expected future earnings.

Total equity increased $3.9 million at March 31, 2023, compared to December 31, 2022, due primarily to lower unrealized losses in the market value of securities available-for-sale, which are recognized as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss, and net income, partially offset by the adoption of CECL. The Company’s securities available-for-sale are fixed income debt securities, and their unrealized loss position is a result of increases in market interest rates rather than credit quality issues. The Company expects to recover its investments in debt securities through scheduled payments of principal and interest and unrealized losses are not expected to affect the earnings or regulatory capital of the Company or its subsidiaries.

At March 31, 2023, the book value per share of the Company’s common stock was $20.52, and tangible book value per share (non-GAAP) was $20.14.
