Net Interest Margin Expands Five Basis Points to 3.59% in the December 2019 Quarter in Comparison to the December 2018 Quarter

RIVERSIDE, Calif., Jan. 27, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Provident Financial Holdings, Inc. (“Company”), NASDAQ GS: PROV, the holding company for Provident Savings Bank, F.S.B. (“Bank”), today announced second quarter earnings results for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2020.

For the quarter ended December 31, 2019, the Company reported net income of $2.40 million, or $0.31 per diluted share (on 7.66 million average diluted shares outstanding), up 22 percent from the net income of $1.96 million, or $0.26 per diluted share (on 7.60 million average diluted shares outstanding), in the comparable period a year ago. Compared to the same quarter last year, the increase in earnings was primarily attributable to lower non-interest expenses, partly offset by lower non-interest income.

“I am pleased with our financial results for the December 2019 quarter.  We continue to demonstrate reasonable growth in our loan portfolio, our credit quality metrics are very good, operating expenses are under control, and our capital levels are strong,” said Craig G. Blunden, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.  “We look forward to 2020 and believe we are well-positioned for growth by serving the communities of the Inland Empire,” Mr. Blunden concluded.

Return on average assets for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 was 0.87 percent compared to 0.69 percent for the same period of fiscal 2019; and return on average stockholders’ equity for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 was 7.81 percent compared to 6.42 percent for the comparable period of fiscal 2019.

On a sequential quarter basis, the $2.40 million net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 reflects a $164,000 or six percent decrease from $2.56 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The decrease in earnings for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2020 was primarily attributable to higher non-interest expenses (primarily due to the $296,000 partial reversion of a previously expensed legal settlement, which was recognized during the prior sequential quarter and not replicated this quarter) and a lower recovery from the allowance for loan losses, partly offset by higher non-interest income (primarily due to higher loan servicing and other fees). Diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 were $0.31 per share, down six percent from the $0.33 per share during the first quarter of fiscal 2020. Return on average assets was 0.87 percent for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to 0.95 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2020; and return on average stockholders’ equity for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 was 7.81 percent, compared to 8.46 percent for the first quarter of fiscal 2020.

For the six months ended December 31, 2019 net income increased $1.18 million, or 31 percent, to $4.96 million from $3.78 million in the comparable period ended December 31, 2018; and diluted earnings per share for the six months ended December 31, 2019 increased 30 percent to $0.65 per share (on 7.65 million average diluted shares outstanding) from $0.50 per share (on 7.58 million average diluted shares outstanding) for the comparable six month period last year. Compared to the same period last year, the increase in earnings was primarily attributable to a $7.79 million decrease in non-interest expense; partly offset by a $5.52 million decrease in the gain on sale of loans.

Net interest income decreased $192,000, or two percent, to $9.64 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from $9.83 million for the same quarter of fiscal 2019, attributable to a lower average interest-earning assets balance, partly offset by an increase in the net interest margin.  The average balance of interest-earning assets decreased by $35.7 million, or three percent, to $1.07 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from $1.11 billion in the same quarter last year. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities decreased by $36.1 million, or four percent, to $964.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from $1.00 billion in the same quarter last year. The net interest margin during the second quarter of fiscal 2020 increased five basis points to 3.59 percent from 3.54 percent in the same quarter last year, primarily due to an increase in the average yield of interest-earning assets, partly offset by a slight increase in the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased by six basis points to 4.18 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from 4.12 percent in the same quarter last year; while the average cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased by one basis point to 0.65 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from 0.64 percent in the same quarter last year.

The average balance of loans receivable (including loans held for sale in the prior year) decreased by $7.1 million, or one percent, to $934.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from $941.2 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2019, primarily due to a decrease in the average balance of loans held for sale, partly offset by an increase in loans held for investment. There were no loans held for sale during the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The average yield on loans receivable increased by three basis points to 4.42 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from an average yield of 4.39 percent in the same quarter of fiscal 2019.  The increase in the average yield on loans receivable was primarily attributable to a $378,000 deferred loan fee that was recognized in interest income as a result of a loan payoff in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from a previously classified non-performing loan that had been upgraded to pass as compared to $159,000 of deferred interest payments that was recognized from two non-performing loans that were paid off in the same quarter last year.  Total loans originated and purchased for investment in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 were $81.6 million, up 108 percent from $39.3 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2019. Loan principal payments received in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 were $65.2 million, up 58 percent from $41.2 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2019.

The average balance of investment securities decreased by $6.4 million, or seven percent, to $87.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from $93.5 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2019. The average yield on investment securities increased 70 basis points to 2.60 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from 1.90 percent for the same quarter of fiscal 2019. The increase in the average yield was primarily attributable to a lower premium amortization ($97,000 vs. $224,000) and purchases of mortgage-backed securities during the last 12 months which had higher average yields than the existing portfolio.

In the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the Federal Home Loan Bank – San Francisco (“FHLB”) distributed a $145,000 cash dividend to the Bank on its FHLB stock, down from $278,000 in the same quarter last year, which included a $133,000 special cash dividend received on FHLB San Francisco stock last year, not replicated this quarter.

The average balance of the Company’s interest-earning deposits, primarily cash with the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, decreased $22.3 million, or 33 percent, to $45.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from $67.8 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2019. The average yield earned on interest-earning deposits in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 was 1.62 percent, down 61 basis points from 2.23 percent in the same quarter of fiscal 2019 largely as a result of three 25 basis point decreases in the targeted Federal Funds Rate in the first and second quarters of fiscal 2020.

Average deposits decreased $56.0 million, or six percent, to $833.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from $889.6 million in the same quarter of fiscal 2019, primarily due to a managed run-off of higher cost time deposits consistent with the reduction in the Bank’s funding needs resulting from no loans originated for sale during the first and second quarters of fiscal 2020.  The average cost of deposits improved, decreasing by three basis points to 0.37 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from 0.40 percent in the same quarter last year.

Transaction account balances or “core deposits” decreased slightly to $647.8 million at December 31, 2019 from $648.1 million at June 30, 2019, while time deposits decreased $7.2 million, or four percent, to $185.9 million at December 31, 2019 from $193.1 million at June 30, 2019.

The average balance of borrowings, which consisted of FHLB advances, increased $20.0 million, or 18 percent, to $131.1 million while the average cost of borrowings decreased 12 basis points to 2.43 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2020, compared to an average balance of $111.1 million with an average cost of 2.55 percent in the same quarter of fiscal 2019. The increase in the average balance of borrowings was primarily due to the new long-term borrowings with a lower average cost obtained during the first quarter of fiscal 2020 (sequential quarter).

During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company recorded a recovery from the allowance for loan losses of $22,000, as compared to a recovery of $217,000 recorded during the same period of fiscal 2019 and a recovery of $181,000 recorded in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 (sequential quarter).

Non-performing assets, with underlying collateral located in California, decreased $2.8 million, or 45 percent, to $3.4 million, or 0.31 percent of total assets, at December 31, 2019, compared to $6.2 million, or 0.57 percent of total assets, at June 30, 2019. The non-performing loans at December 31, 2019 are comprised of 16 single-family loans ($3.4 million) and one commercial business loan ($37,000).  At both December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, there was no real estate owned.

Net loan recoveries for the quarter ended December 31, 2019 were $14,000 or 0.01 percent (annualized) of average loans receivable, compared to net loan recoveries of $123,000 or 0.05 percent (annualized) of average loans receivable for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 and net loan recoveries of $34,000 or 0.02 percent (annualized) of average loans receivable for the quarter ended September 30, 2019 (sequential quarter).

Classified assets at December 31, 2019 were $13.7 million, comprised of $9.4 million of loans in the special mention category, $4.3 million of loans in the substandard category and no real estate owned; while classified assets at June 30, 2019 were $16.2 million, comprised of $8.6 million of loans in the special mention category, $7.6 million of loans in the substandard category and no real estate owned.

For the quarter ended December 31, 2019, no new loans were restructured from their original terms and classified as restructured loans. The outstanding balance of restructured loans at December 31, 2019 was $1.8 million (six loans), down 53 percent from $3.8 million (eight loans) at June 30, 2019. As of December 31, 2019, all of the restructured loans were classified as substandard non-accrual. As of December 31, 2019, 49% or $888,000 of the restructured loans have a current payment status.

The allowance for loan losses was $6.9 million at December 31, 2019, or 0.73 percent of gross loans held for investment, compared to $7.1 million at June 30, 2019, or 0.80 percent of gross loans held for investment. Management believes that, based on currently available information, the allowance for loan losses is sufficient to absorb potential losses inherent in loans held for investment at December 31, 2019.

Non-interest income decreased by $2.26 million, or 63 percent, to $1.34 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from $3.60 million in the same period of fiscal 2019, primarily as a result of no loan sales during the current quarter. The gain on sale of loans last year, during the second quarter of fiscal 2019, was $2.26 million. On a sequential quarter basis, non-interest income increased $274,000, or 26 percent, primarily as a result of an increase in loan servicing and other loan fees. There were no loans originated for sale during the current or sequential quarters.

Non-interest expenses decreased $3.33 million, or 31 percent, to $7.55 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 from $10.88 million in the same quarter last year.  The decrease was due primarily to lower salaries and employee benefits expenses resulting from fewer employees and consistent with the scaling back of saleable single-family mortgage loan originations. On a sequential quarter basis, non-interest expenses increased $316,000 or four percent from $7.24 million. The increase in non-interest expenses for the sequential quarter was primarily due to the $296,000 partial reversion of a previously expensed legal settlement, which was recognized in other non-interest expense during the quarter ended September 30, 2019 and not replicated this quarter.

The Company’s efficiency ratio in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 was 69 percent, an improvement from 81 percent in the same quarter last year but a slight increase from 68 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2020 (sequential quarter).

The Company’s provision for income tax was $1.05 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2020, up 30 percent from $810,000 in the same quarter last year. The effective tax rate in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 was 30.51% as compared to 29.26% in the same quarter of fiscal 2019. The Company believes that the tax provision recorded in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 reflects its current federal and state income tax obligations.

The Company repurchased 2,361 shares of its common stock during the quarter ended December 31, 2019 at an average cost of $21.84 per share. As of December 31, 2019, a total of 71,284 shares or 19 percent of the April 2018 stock repurchase plan have been purchased at an average cost of $19.97 per share, leaving 301,716 shares available for future purchases.

The Bank currently operates 13 retail/business banking offices in Riverside County and San Bernardino County (Inland Empire).
