C&F Financial Corporation Announces Third Quarter Net Income


WEST POINT, Va., Oct. 24, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- C&F Financial Corporation (the Corporation) (NASDAQ:CFFI), the one-bank holding company for C&F Bank, today reported consolidated net income of $4.9 million, or $1.42 per share, for the third quarter of 2019, compared to $5.1 million, or $1.46 per share, for the third quarter of 2018.  The Corporation reported consolidated net income of $14.5 million for the first nine months of 2019, or $4.19 per share, compared with $14.1 million, or $4.02 per share, for the first nine months of 2018. Returns on average equity (ROE) for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 were 12.28 percent and 12.45 percent, respectively, compared to 13.81 percent and 13.02 percent for the same periods in 2018.  Return on average assets (ROA) was 1.25 percent for both the third quarter and first nine months of 2019, compared to 1.35 percent and 1.24 percent for the same periods in 2018.

Excluding merger related costs incurred in connection with the Corporation’s pending acquisition of Peoples Bankshares, Incorporated (Peoples), adjusted net income for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 was $5.3 million, or $1.54 per share, and $14.9 million, or $4.30 per share, respectively. Adjusted ROE and adjusted ROA, which exclude merger-related costs, were 13.26 percent and 1.35 percent, respectively, for the third quarter of 2019. Adjusted ROE and adjusted ROA for the first nine months of 2019 were 12.78 percent and 1.29 percent, respectively. For more information about these financial measures, which are not calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), please see “Use of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliation of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” below.

Key highlights for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 are as follows.  Comparisons are to the corresponding periods in the prior year unless otherwise noted.

  • Retail banking segment average gross loans increased 6.1 percent for the third quarter and 5.9 percent for the first nine months;
  • Retail banking segment operating expense was higher, primarily as a result of the addition of new talent to our commercial lending team and our investment in technology infrastructure to support continued growth;
  • Mortgage banking segment gains on sales of loans increased 82.9 percent for the third quarter and 29.6 percent for the first nine months as originations of mortgage loans reached their highest quarterly level in the third quarter of 2019 since 2009;
  • The consumer finance segment’s annualized net charge-off ratio of 2.91 percent of average total loans for the first nine months of 2019 is lower than the first nine months of any year since 2012;
  • The consumer finance segment’s non-prime automobile loan portfolio grew by 3.4 percent during the first nine months of 2019, reversing the decline in that portfolio that occurred during 2018;
  • Loan yields at the consumer finance segment declined as it continued to expand its indirect prime lending for marine and recreational vehicles; and
  • Higher deposit and short-term interest rates resulted in higher interest expense for each of our segments.

Tom Cherry, President and Chief Executive Officer of C&F Financial Corporation, commented, “We saw continued strong performance in the third quarter, as our adjusted net income exceeded our net income for the third quarter of 2018, which was the second highest quarterly net income in our Corporation’s history.” There were no adjustments to net income for the third quarter or first nine months of 2018.  Mr. Cherry continued, “For the first nine months of 2019, our net income of $14.5 million sets a new record, higher than the first nine months of any year in our history. On an adjusted basis, our consolidated net income increased 3.4 percent and 5.9 percent for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019, respectively, compared to the same periods in 2018. Each of our primary business segments has continued to deliver on their respective goals, including growing average loans outstanding at the retail banking segment, increasing loan production at the mortgage banking segment, and continuing improvement in asset quality while also growing loans outstanding at the consumer finance segment.  Furthermore, we are excited about our pending acquisition of Peoples and the opportunities that will bring.”

Retail Banking Segment.  C&F Bank, which comprises the retail banking segment, reported net income of $2.4 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to net income of $3.2 million for the third quarter of 2018.  For the first nine months of 2019, C&F Bank reported net income of $7.8 million, compared to $7.9 million for the first nine months of 2018.  Retail banking segment net income for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 included merger related expenses of $104,000 ($89,000 after income taxes).

For the third quarter of 2019, compared to the third quarter of 2018, retail banking segment net income decreased primarily as a result of (1) lower interest income on certain purchased loans, as discussed below, (2) higher operating expenses associated with C&F Bank adding new talent to its commercial lending team in the Richmond and Charlottesville markets and investing in technology infrastructure to support continued growth, (3) higher average rates on interest-bearing deposit accounts and (4) merger related expenses, which were partially offset by (1) higher average loans outstanding, which contributed to higher interest income, (2) higher interchange income and (3) lower expense associated with the FDIC insurance assessment as a result of credits available to banks with less than $10 billion in total assets.  For the first nine months of 2019, compared to the first nine months of 2018, retail banking segment net income decreased primarily as a result of (1) higher operating expenses as discussed above, (2) higher average rates on interest-bearing deposit accounts, (3) lower service charges on deposit accounts resulting from fewer overdraft fees charged and (4) merger related expenses, which were partially offset by (1) higher average loans outstanding and higher yields on loans, which contributed to higher interest income, (2) higher interchange income and (3) lower expense associated with the FDIC insurance assessment.

The recognition of interest income on purchased credit impaired (PCI) loans is based on management’s expectation of future payments of principal and interest. Certain PCI loans have paid off earlier than expected during 2019 and 2018, affecting the recognition of interest income as repayments occur. Interest income recognized on PCI loans was $985,000 and $2.7 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019, respectively, compared to $1.5 million and $2.9 million for the third quarter and first nine months of 2018, respectively.

Average loans increased $44.6 million or 6.1 percent for the third quarter of 2019 and $42.9 million or 5.9 percent for the first nine months of 2019, compared to the same periods in 2018, primarily due to growth in the commercial business lending, acquisition and development, and commercial real estate segments of the loan portfolio. C&F Bank’s total nonperforming assets were $2.1 million at September 30, 2019, compared to $1.7 million at December 31, 2018. Nonperforming assets at September 30, 2019 included $1.1 million in other real estate owned, compared to $246,000 at December 31, 2018, and $950,000 in nonaccrual loans, compared to $1.5 million at December 31, 2018.  As previously announced, C&F Bank consolidated its Bellgrade branch in Midlothian, Virginia into a nearby branch in the third quarter of 2019, and reclassified $835,000 of land and buildings into other real estate owned.

Mortgage Banking Segment.  C&F Mortgage Corporation, which comprises the mortgage banking segment, reported net income of $1.2 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to net income of $490,000 for the third quarter of 2018. For the first nine months of 2019, C&F Mortgage Corporation reported net income of $3.0 million, compared to net income of $1.7 million for the first nine months of 2018.

The increase in net income of the mortgage banking segment for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 compared to the same periods in 2018 was due primarily to higher gains on sales of loans, resulting from higher loan production, which was partially offset by higher compensation expense related to higher loan volume. Mortgage loan originations for the mortgage banking segment were $286.9 million and $672.4 million in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019, respectively, compared to $191.1 million and $538.7 million for the same periods in 2018. Loan production for the third quarter of 2019 was the highest reported by the mortgage banking segment for any fiscal quarter since the second quarter of 2009 when home sales were supported by a federal income tax credit for first-time home buyers.  Lower interest rates on mortgage loans have contributed to an increase in volume in the mortgage industry in the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 compared to the same periods in 2018.

Consumer Finance Segment.  C&F Finance Company, which comprises the consumer finance segment, reported net income of $1.9 million for the third quarter of 2019, compared to net income of $1.8 million for the third quarter of 2018.  For the first nine months of 2019, C&F Finance Company reported net income of $5.1 million, compared to net income of $5.4 million for the first nine months of 2018.

Factors having a favorable effect on the net income of C&F Finance Company for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 compared to the same periods in 2018 included a decline in the provision for loan losses of $600,000 and $1.8 million, respectively, as a result of lower charge-offs and improving credit quality of the portfolio, as discussed below. Factors having an unfavorable effect on the net income of C&F Finance Company for the same periods included (1) lower loan yields resulting from competition in the non-prime automobile loan business and the acquisition of automobile loan contracts with higher credit metrics and lower interest rates, as well as relatively lower yields on prime marine and recreational vehicle (RV) loans, and (2) higher-cost variable-rate borrowings resulting from increases in short-term interest rates since the first quarter of 2018.

The annualized net charge-off ratio for the first nine months of 2019 decreased to 2.91 percent from 3.84 percent for the first nine months of 2018. The decline reflects a lower number of charge-offs during 2019 as a result of C&F Finance Company’s purchasing automobile loan contracts with higher credit metrics beginning in 2016. At September 30, 2019, total delinquent loans as a percentage of total loans was 3.48 percent, compared to 4.76 percent at December 31, 2018 and 4.30 percent at September 30, 2018.  The allowance for loan losses was $22.2 million, or 7.09 percent of total loans at September 30, 2019, compared to $23.0 million, or 7.77 percent of total loans at December 31, 2018. The decrease in the level of the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was primarily due to lower net charge-offs on non-prime automobile loans.  At September 30, 2019, compared to December 31, 2018, the higher composition within the consumer finance segment’s loan portfolio of prime marine and RV loans accounted for approximately 15 basis points of the 68 basis points decrease in the ratio of the allowance for loan losses to total loans.

Acquisition of Peoples Bankshares, Incorporated.  On August 13, 2019, the Corporation announced its agreement to acquire Peoples and its banking subsidiary, Peoples Community Bank.  Completion of the merger is subject to certain conditions, including approval of the transaction by appropriate federal and state banking regulatory agencies and approval of the transaction by the Peoples shareholders.  Upon completion of the merger, which is expected to occur in early 2020, shareholders of Peoples will receive 0.5366 shares of the Corporation’s common stock and $27.00 in cash for each share of Peoples common stock. In the third quarter and first nine months of 2019, the Corporation recorded merger related expenses of $409,000 ($389,000 after income taxes) in connection with its acquisition of Peoples, of which $104,000 ($89,000 after income taxes) was allocated to the retail banking segment and the remainder was recorded as a holding company expense.  The Corporation estimates that it will incur aggregate merger related costs of approximately $2.0 million.

Capital and Dividends.  The Corporation declared a quarterly cash dividend of 37 cents per share during the third quarter of 2019, which was paid on October 1, 2019.  This dividend represents a payout ratio of 26.1 percent of earnings per share for the third quarter of 2019.  The Board of Directors of the Corporation 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.

In May 2019, the Board of Directors authorized a program, effective June 1, 2019, to repurchase up to $5.0 million of the Corporation’s common stock through May 31, 2020.  During the third quarter of 2019, the Corporation repurchased 21,337 shares of its common stock at an average price of $51.23 per share. As of September 30, 2019, the Corporation has made aggregate common stock repurchases of $1.7 million under the share repurchase program.

The acquisition of Peoples is expected to generate goodwill and other intangible assets that will be excluded from the regulatory capital of C&F Bank, which may result in a decrease in C&F Bank’s regulatory capital ratios.  C&F Bank expects that it will remain well-capitalized following the completion of the merger.

About C&F Financial Corporation.  C&F Financial Corporation’s common stock is listed for trading on The Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbol CFFI.  The common stock closed at a price of $52.56 per share on October 23, 2019.  At September 30, 2019, the book value of the Corporation was $47.34 per share.

Use of Certain Non-GAAP Financial Measures. The accounting and reporting policies of the Corporation conform to GAAP in the United States and prevailing practices in the banking industry. However, certain non-GAAP measures are used by management to supplement the evaluation of the Corporation’s performance. These include adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted ROE, adjusted ROA, tangible book value per share, and the following fully-taxable equivalent (FTE) measures: interest income on loans-FTE, interest income on securities-FTE, total interest income-FTE and net interest income-FTE.

Management believes that the use of these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful information about operating performance by enhancing comparability with other financial periods, other financial institutions, and between different sources of interest income. The non-GAAP measures used by management enhance comparability by excluding the effects of (1) items that do not reflect ongoing operating performance, including non-recurring gains or charges (2) balances of intangible assets, including goodwill, that vary significantly between institutions, and (3) tax benefits that are not consistent across different opportunities for investment. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered an alternative to GAAP-basis financial statements, and other bank holding companies may define or calculate these or similar measures differently. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Corporation to evaluate and measure the Corporation’s performance to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is presented below.
