SHIPPENSBURG, Pa., Jan. 21, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Orrstown Financial Services, Inc. ("Orrstown" or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: ORRF), the parent company of Orrstown Bank (the “Bank”) and Wheatland Advisors, Inc. ("Wheatland"), announced earnings for the three months and year ended December 31, 2019. Net income, including the impact of merger related and branch consolidation expenses, totaled $4.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2019, compared with $1.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. Net income, including the impact of merger related and branch consolidation expenses, for the year ended December 31, 2019 totaled $16.9 million, compared with $12.8 million for the same period in 2018.  Diluted earnings per share totaled $0.38 and $1.61 for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2019, compared with $0.12 and $1.50 for the same periods in 2018. Earnings in 2019 were impacted by the acquisition of Mercersburg Financial Corporation ("Mercersburg"), completed on October 1, 2018, and Hamilton Bancorp, Inc. ("Hamilton"), completed on May 1, 2019.

Thomas R. Quinn, Jr., President & CEO, commented, “2019 was a year of growth and investment at Orrstown including the conversion of Mercersburg, the acquisition and conversion of Hamilton, and the hiring of team members across our franchise, all of which are intended to drive the future growth of the Company while improving profitability.  We ended the year strong and are beginning to see tangible signs of progress toward our 2020 strategic priorities, as evidenced by our commercial loan growth and favorable deposit mix shift in the quarter.  Our top priority will be to enhance the profitability of the bank through focus on continuation of growth in our relationship community bank, branch efficiency optimization, balance sheet mix optimization, and fee income growth, while never losing focus on the quality of the client experience.  We view the steps taken throughout 2019 as laying a solid foundation for successful execution in 2020 and beyond."

Addressing Orrstown's role as a community bank, Mr. Quinn noted, "One of our core values at Orrstown is to be actively engaged in the communities we serve, whether through financial support or volunteer service, with area non-profits and other organizations. In 2019, we were pleased to provide nearly $750,000 to help over 300 of these valuable community partners carry out their important missions, such as youth mentorship, financial literacy skill development, health and human services, and educational improvement programs. Our associates also contributed more than 9,200 hours of their time throughout the year to lend their skills and talents to more than 400 organizations in our markets through board or committee service or volunteer engagements. As a community bank, these efforts are central to our mission and play a key role in our continued success."

MERGER AND ACQUISITION and BRANCH CONSOLIDATION ACTIVITY

The Company incurred merger related expenses totaling $0 and $8.0 million for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2019, representing principally data processing contract termination costs, employee contract termination costs and legal and consulting fees for the Hamilton acquisition and system conversion expenses for both the Mercersburg and Hamilton acquisitions, all of which are included in noninterest expenses. The Company also recorded $1.0 million in expense related to the previously announced consolidation of 5 branch locations, representing severance benefits for impacted employees, lease terminations costs, owned real estate write downs and other branch exit related expenses. The consolidations are on schedule and expected to be completed in January 2020.

DISCUSSION OF RESULTS

Balance Sheet

Loans
Due to the significant addition of commercial relationship managers, period end loans grew $51 million, or 13% annualized, in the fourth quarter of 2019 as compared with the third quarter of 2019. Commercial loans grew $47 million, or 20% annualized, in the quarter with much of the closing activity focused in the latter half of December. Home equity loans grew $4 million in the fourth quarter, or 10% annualized, as a result of a successful marketing and outreach campaign. Mortgage loan originations were solid, but the Company continues to sell most of its loan production in the secondary market. Mortgage loan outstandings on the balance sheet fell $17 million, or 20% annualized, in the quarter as the Company continues to execute its balance sheet mix optimization strategy. Installment loan growth of $12 million in the quarter included an early fourth quarter purchase of $14 million of auto loans. This was the continuation of a short term strategy to deploy some excess cash into short duration, high quality earning assets.

Deposits
Total core (nonmaturity) deposits increased $9 million in the fourth quarter, or 2.7% annualized, to $1.35 billion. The cost of core deposits fell 3 basis points to 0.64% due to some reductions in interest-bearing core deposit rates in the quarter. Time deposits, net of brokered and subscription accounts, fell $4 million in the quarter, or 3.3% annualized, primarily in the Maryland market. The loan to deposit ratio increased in the quarter from 83% to 88% due to the planned runoff in brokered and subscription deposits of $54 million, combined with loan growth of $51 million. The Company will selectively use brokered channels as needed and is targeting a 90-95% loan to deposit ratio over the long term.

Other
Borrowings increased by $118 million in the quarter, as the Company made progress towards longer term objectives of balance sheet mix optimization along with managing to a 90-95% loan to deposit target. Investment securities increased by $14 million as excess cash flows were invested into securities early in the fourth quarter. As the Company continues to execute its plan to grow relationship loans, it will look to reduce its investment portfolio concentration to fund some of this loan growth either through scheduled paydowns or through sales. Total assets grew by $70 million in the quarter with much of the growth occurring in the last several weeks of the quarter. We expect limited total balance sheet growth in 2020 as the Company reinvests lower margin investments and mortgages into relationship commercial and consumer loans.

Income Statement

Net Interest Income and Margin
Net interest income totaled $17.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 compared with $18.1 million in the third quarter of 2019. Average interest-earning assets fell by $65 million in the quarter while the net interest margin increased by 7 basis points to 3.37%. Factors impacting this quarterly change were balance sheet mix optimization efforts (an average interest bearing cash reduction favorably impacted margin by 10 basis points), a previous period one-time termination expense for early termination of brokered deposits (favorably impacted margin by 4 basis points) and other factors, including the negative impacts of an asset sensitive balance sheet (negatively impacted margin by 7 basis points). 

The Company focused on improving the balance sheet mix in this low rate environment to preserve net interest margin. Tangible indications of these efforts in the quarter included an average cash reduction of $74 million, an average mortgage loans reduction of $20 million, and an average commercial loans increase of $8 million, while average brokered deposits decreased $80 million. Ending period loans were higher than average loans by $38 million, which will provide a benefit to Q1 2020 net interest income.

An early termination expense for brokered deposits, totaling $0.2 million in the third quarter of 2019, was not repeated in fourth quarter results. Lastly, the Company has an asset sensitive balance sheet with concentrations in variable rate commercial loans and investment securities. It also has significant concentrations in core deposits with a low cost of funds. With this profile, the Company will normally experience net interest margin pressure as interest rates fall and net interest margin expansion as rates rise. If the external environment continues to favor low interest rates, the Company will continue to focus on mix optimization to preserve margin, while also obtaining its fair share of rate sensitive fee revenues from mortgage loans to be sold in the secondary market and loan swap referral income for commercial real estate clients.

Asset Quality
The allowance for loan losses totaled $14.7 million at December 31, 2019, compared with $14.8 million at September 30, 2019. Asset quality trends continue to exhibit low levels of charge-offs and non-performing loans; the provision for loan losses totaled $0 in the fourth quarter for 2019, compared with $300,000 in the third quarter of 2019. Management believes the allowance for loan losses to total loans ratio remains adequate at 0.89% at December 31, 2019. At September 30, 2019, the allowance for loan losses to total loans ratio totaled 0.93%. 

Net charge-offs remained low in the quarter ended December 31, 2019 and totaled $154,000, equating to 0.04% annualized as compared with net recoveries totaling $49,000, or (0.01%) annualized, in the previous quarter. Nonperforming loans increased $4 million in the fourth quarter, due principally to a downgrade of one commercial relationship, and totaled 0.65% of loans at December 31, 2019, compared with 0.44% of loans at September 30, 2019. The Company has also experienced some mild credit quality migration to lower ratings in the acquired portfolios, but continues to believe that this is normal acquisition-related activity, and it is anticipated that this migration will slow in the coming quarters as the Company works through the acquired loan portfolios. Overall, asset quality continues to be solid and the allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans ratio ended the quarter at 208%.

Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the quarter ended December 31, 2019, excluding securities gains, totaled $7.0 million, compared with $6.3 million in the third quarter of 2019. The Company continues to focus on growth in relationship fee-based revenue for commercial and retail clients.

Total wealth management income for the quarter ended December 31, 2019 totaled $2.5 million, which is flat with the previous quarter. The Company continues to look to build this business over the coming years and has recently begun efforts to offer wealth management products in the acquired Hamilton Bank market in Maryland.

In the fourth quarter of 2019, service charges totaled $1.1 million and interchange income on debit cards totaled $0.9 million, which are flat with the previous quarter. These stable sources of fee revenue should grow over time as we add retail and commercial clients. In the fourth quarter, approximately 18% of service charges were from cash management services. Growth in these sources is an area of opportunity and focus in future years.

Mortgage banking income for the quarter ended December 31, 2019 increased by $0.7 million to $1.3 million. In the third quarter of 2019, a $205,000 impairment charge was recognized due to decreasing interest rates on the mortgage servicing asset. In the fourth quarter, $170,000 of this impairment was recovered due to an increase in interest rates.  Loans sold in the quarter totaled $32.8 million compared with $34.4 million in the previous quarter. With interest rates at low levels and recent market expansion efforts, the Company sees an opportunity to increase market share with our existing clients by increasing our focus on branch referrals and local market outreach efforts.

Loan swap referral fees totaled $0.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2019, which is flat with the previous quarter. In mid- 2019, the Company began offering interest rate hedging products through a third party whereby it receives a fee at closing, for primarily commercial real estate credits. With our market expansion efforts and building of our experienced relationship manager team, we added this product to better serve our clients. This fee revenue will fluctuate from quarter to quarter, but we continue to see client demand to fix their loan interest rates in this current rate environment.

Noninterest Expenses
Noninterest expenses totaled $19.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 compared with $18.1 million in the third quarter. Fourth quarter 2019 results include $1.0 million of branch consolidation expenses and third quarter 2019 includes $0.5 million of merger related charges.

Salaries and employee benefits totaled $11.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 as compared with $10.5 million in the previous quarter. $0.4 million of this increase was due to higher than average health insurance expenses under the Company's self-insured group health plan. This expense may fluctuate from quarter to quarter, but it is anticipated that health insurance expenses will decline to normalized levels in future quarters. The remaining variance of $0.5 million is due primarily to the costs associated with the recruitment of new relationship managers and secondarily for increases in incentives for new business. The recruitment efforts and related expenses were elevated in the fourth quarter and it is anticipated that these costs will decrease in coming quarters.

Fourth quarter 2019 expense for advertising increased by $0.3 million from the previous quarter due to an increase in charitable contributions. The Company received certain tax credits associated with a portion of these increased contributions which allowed the Company to reduce its Pennsylvania bank shares tax expense, included in taxes other than income, by $0.2 million in the fourth quarter. 

FDIC insurance expense reflects credits received in the fourth quarter of 2019, similar to those received in the third quarter, under the FDIC's regulations to provide credits, when the reserve ratio reaches 1.38 percent, to banks with consolidated assets under $10 billion. The Company expects FDIC insurance expense to increase after its available credits partially reduce first quarter 2020 expense.

Income Taxes
The Company's effective tax rate for 2019 was 13.8% compared with 11.4% for 2018 and generally reflected increased profitability. The Company's effective tax rate is significantly less than the 21% federal statutory rate due to tax-exempt income, including interest earned on tax-exempt loans and securities and income from life insurance policies, as well as tax credits. In 2019, the Company recorded a tax benefit of $0.2 million, or approximately $0.02 per diluted share, related to a favorable tax law clarification concerning the treatment of life insurance assets of an acquired entity and a tax benefit of $0.3 million, or approximately $0.03 per diluted share, related to an increase in its deferred state income tax asset for the effect of the state tax rate change resulting from the Hamilton acquisition. These tax benefit items had the effect of lowering the effective tax rate for 2019 by approximately 2.6%.

Capital

Shareholders’ equity totaled $223 million at December 31, 2019, an increase of $50 million from $173 million at December 31, 2018. The increase was attributable to the issuance of shares of the Company's common stock in connection with the acquisition of Hamilton, growth in retained earnings, and an improvement in accumulated other comprehensive loss from changes in net unrealized gains and losses in securities available for sale.

Appendix B- Supplemental Reporting of Non-GAAP Measures and GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliations

As a result of acquisitions, the Company has intangible assets consisting of goodwill and core deposit and other intangible assets totaling $27.1 million and $16.5 million at December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Management believes providing certain “non-GAAP” financial information will assist investors in their understanding of the effect of acquisition activity on reported results, particularly to overcome comparability issues related to the influence of intangibles (principally goodwill) created in acquisitions.

Tangible book value per share and net interest margin excluding the impact of purchase accounting, as used by the Company in this earnings release, are determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"). While we believe this information is a useful supplement to GAAP based measures presented in this earnings release, readers are cautioned that this non-GAAP disclosure has limitations as an analytical tool, should not be viewed as a substitute for financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results and financial condition as reported under GAAP, nor are such measures necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. This supplemental presentation should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by similar adjustments to be determined in accordance with GAAP.

The following table presents the computation of each non-GAAP based measure shown together with its most directly comparable GAAP based measure.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-looking Statements:

This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning 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 reflect the current views of the Company's management with respect to, among other things, future events and the Company's financial performance. These statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “predict,” “potential,” “believe,” “will likely result,” “expect,” “continue,” “will,” “anticipate,” “seek,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “project,” “forecast,” “goal,” “target,” “would” and “outlook,” or the negative variations of those words or other comparable words of a future or forward-looking nature. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, and are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about the Company's industry, management’s beliefs and certain assumptions made by management, many of which, by their nature, are inherently uncertain and beyond the Company's control. Accordingly, the Company cautions you that any such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, assumptions and uncertainties that are difficult to predict. Although the Company believes that the expectations reflected in these forward-looking statements are reasonable as of the date made, actual results may prove to be materially different from the results expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements and there can be no assurances that the Company will be able to continue to successfully execute on our strategic growth plan into Dauphin, Lancaster, York and Berks counties, Pennsylvania, and the greater Baltimore market in Maryland, with newer markets continuing to be receptive to our community banking model; to take advantage of market disruption; to experience sustained growth in loans and deposits or maintain the momentum experienced to date from these actions; and to realize cost savings from our branch consolidation efforts. Factors which could cause the actual results of the Company's operations to differ materially from expectations include, but are not limited to: ineffectiveness of the Company's strategic growth plan due to changes in current or future market conditions; the effects of competition and how it may impact our community banking model, including industry consolidation and development of competing financial products and services; the integration of the Company's strategic acquisitions; the inability to fully achieve expected savings, efficiencies or synergies from mergers and acquisitions, or taking longer than estimated for such savings, efficiencies and synergies to be realized; changes in laws and regulations; interest rate movements; changes in credit quality; inability to raise capital, if necessary, under favorable conditions; volatilities in the securities markets; deteriorating economic conditions; expenses associated with pending litigation and legal proceedings; and other risks and uncertainties, including those set forth under the heading "Risk Factors" in the Company's 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K and subsequent filings. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive.

If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if the Company's underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from what the Company anticipates. Accordingly, you should not place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and the Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict those events or how they may affect it. In addition, the Company cannot assess the impact of each factor on its business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements, expressed or implied, included in this press release are expressly qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement. This cautionary statement should also be considered in connection with any subsequent written or oral forward-looking statements that the Company or persons acting on the Company's behalf may issue.

The review period for subsequent events extends up to and includes the filing date of a public company’s financial statements, when filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, the consolidated financial information presented in this announcement is subject to change.
