Summit Financial Group Reports Second Quarter 2022 EPS of $0.92 on Revenue and Loan Growth


MOOREFIELD, W. Va., July 28, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Summit Financial Group, Inc. (“Company” or “Summit”) (NASDAQ: SMMF) today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2022, including continued strong earnings on growth in total revenue and loans.

The Company, which serves commercial and individual clients across West Virginia, the Washington D.C. metropolitan area, Virginia and Kentucky through Summit Community Bank, Inc., reported net income applicable to common shares of $11.8 million, or $0.92 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2022, as compared to $11.5 million, or $0.90 per diluted share, for the first quarter of 2022 and $10.4 million, or $0.80 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021.

“We are pleased to report another quarter of solid operating performance with improvements in both net interest margin and our efficiency ratio,” said H. Charles Maddy, III, President and Chief Executive Officer. “The continued growth in commercial and total loans, along with sustained strength in asset quality metrics, highlight our ongoing focus on meeting the credit needs of our customers while employing sound underwriting practices. Our solid financial performance during the first half of the year and projected loan growth give us confidence of continued strong operating results for the remainder of the year.”

Highlights for Q2 2022

  • Total loans of $2.80 billion, excluding mortgage warehouse lines of credit and Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) lending, increased 4.6 percent, or 18.5 percent annualized, during the quarter and 22.7 percent since June 30, 2021.
  • Net interest income increased 4.8 percent compared to the linked quarter, and increased 15.5 percent from the year-ago period, primarily due to loan growth.
  • Net interest margin (“NIM”) increased 5 basis points to 3.66 percent from the linked quarter and 11 basis points from the year-ago quarter, as increased yields on interest earning assets were partially offset by increased cost of deposits and other funding.
  • Total noninterest expense increased to $17.6 million in the quarter, up 2.4 percent from the linked quarter and up 3.4 percent from the year-ago quarter, as salary and benefits increases were largely offset by disciplined management of other operating costs.
  • Annualized non-interest expense was unchanged from the linked quarter at 1.91 percent of average assets, and down 18 basis points from the year-ago period.
  • Achieved an improved efficiency ratio of 47.45 percent compared to 49.44 percent in Q1 2022 and 48.82 percent in the year-ago quarter.
  • Incurred $2.00 million provision for credit losses in the quarter increasing period-end allowance for loan credit losses to $35.1 million, or 1.18 percent of total loans and 320.6 percent of nonperforming loans.
  • Foreclosed property held for sale declined by 22.9 percent during the quarter and 59.6 percent from the year-ago quarter to $5.32 million or 0.14 percent of assets at period end.
  • Nonperforming assets (“NPAs”) improved to 0.43 percent of total assets at period end, excluding restructured assets, down 8 basis points during the quarter and 67 basis points from June 30, 2021.
  • Tangible book value per common share (“TBVPS”) increased $0.28 to $20.07 during the quarter, despite unrealized net losses on debt securities available for sale (“AFS”) of $0.91 per common share (net of deferred income taxes) recorded in Other Comprehensive Income (“OCI”), partially offset by increases in the fair values of derivative financial instruments hedging against higher interest rates totaling $0.41 per common share (net of deferred income taxes) also recorded in OCI.

Results from Operations

Net interest income grew to $31.0 million in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 4.8 percent from the linked quarter and 15.5 percent from the prior-year second quarter. NIM for second quarter 2022 was 3.66 percent compared to 3.61 percent for the linked quarter and 3.55 percent for the year-ago quarter. Excluding the impact of accretion and amortization of fair value acquisition accounting adjustments, Summit’s net interest margin would have been 3.62 percent for the second quarter of 2022, 3.60 percent for the linked quarter and 3.45 percent for the year-ago period.

Noninterest income, consisting primarily of service fee income from community banking activities and trust and wealth management fees, for second quarter 2022 was $3.86 million compared to $4.55 million for the linked quarter and $4.72 million for the comparable period of 2021. The Company recorded realized securities losses on debt securities of $289,000 in the second quarter of 2022 and $152,000 in the linked quarter. In addition, the Company recognized a loss on equity investments of $669,000 in second quarter 2022 compared to a gain of $372,000 in the linked quarter.

Mortgage origination revenue was $317,000 in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $339,000 in the linked quarter and $898,000 for the year-ago period.

Excluding gains and losses on debt securities and equity investments, noninterest income was $4.81 million for second quarter 2022 compared to $4.33 million for Q1 2022 and $4.59 million in the year-ago quarter primarily as result of higher deposit service charges and bank card fees.

Revenue from net interest income and noninterest income, excluding gains and losses on debt securities and equity investments, grew to $35.8 million, up 5.6 percent from $33.9 million in the linked quarter and 13.9 percent from $31.4 million in the year-ago quarter. Revenue, excluding gains and losses on debt securities and equity investments, for the first half of 2022, grew to $69.7 million, up 12.1 percent from the first half of 2021, outpacing the 4.0 percent noninterest expense increase recorded for the comparable six-month periods.

Total noninterest expense increased to $17.6 million in the second quarter of 2022, up 2.4 percent from $17.2 million in the linked quarter and 3.4 percent from $17.0 million for the prior-year second quarter. The sequential-quarter increase in total noninterest expense, primarily on higher salary and benefits expenses, reflected modest fluctuations in most other categories of operating costs.

Salary and benefit expenses of $10.0 million in the second quarter of 2022 increased from $9.70 million for the linked quarter and $8.23 million during the year-ago period. Higher group health insurance premiums and increased accruals for anticipated 2022 performance bonuses account for the primary reasons for the increases.

Net losses and expenses on foreclosed properties totaled $141,000 during second quarter 2022 compared to net gains in excess of expenses on foreclosed properties of $90,000 in the linked quarter and net losses and expenses on foreclosed properties of $746,000 in the year-ago period.

Other expenses were $2.36 million for Q2 2022 compared to $2.46 million for the linked quarter and $2.76 million in the year-ago period. The changes in these other expenses include:

  • Fraud and robbery losses of $143,000 during the second quarter of 2022 compared to $90,000 and $16,000 in the linked and year-ago quarters, respectively.
  • Virginia franchise tax of $170,000 during the second quarter of 2022 compared to $149,000 and $108,000 in the linked and year-ago quarters, respectively.
  • Deferred director compensation plan-related income of $726,000 during the second quarter of 2022 compared to $400,000 during the linked quarter and plan-related expense of $190,000 in the year-ago quarter.

Summit’s efficiency ratio improved to 47.45 percent in the second quarter of 2022 from 49.44 percent in the linked quarter and 48.82 percent for the year-ago period. Non-interest expense to average assets improved to 1.91 percent in both the second quarter of 2022 and the linked quarter compared to 2.09 percent in the year-ago period.

PPP balances were paid down to $3.54 million on June 30, 2022 from a peak of $98.5 million on September 30, 2020. Mortgage warehouse lines of credit, sourced solely from a participation arrangement with a large regional bank, have paid down to $171.4 million on June 30, 2022 from a peak of $252.5 million on June 30, 2020.

Core deposits declined 0.8 percent during the second quarter to $2.9 billion at June 30, 2022, and increased 0.9 percent year-to-date and 9.3 percent since June 30, 2021.   Changes in core deposits by category are as follows:

  • Core time deposits declined $40.5 million or 9.5 percent in the second quarter of 2022 and $54.6 million or 12.4 percent since June 30, 2021.

Year-to-date 2022, TBVPS has increased $0.53. TBVPS was negatively impacted during the first six months of 2002 by unrealized net losses on debt securities AFS of $2.26 per common share (net of deferred income taxes) recorded in OCI during the first six months of 2022. However, these losses were partially offset by increased fair values of interest rate caps and swaps (also recorded in OCI) held as hedges against higher interest rates totaling $1.24 per common share (net of deferred income taxes), in the same period.

Summit had 12,763,422 outstanding common shares at the end of the second quarter of 2022 compared to 12,743,125 at year-end 2021.

As announced in the first quarter of 2020, the Board of Directors authorized the open market repurchase of up to 750,000 shares of the issued and outstanding shares of Summit's common stock, of which 323,577 shares have been repurchased to date. The timing and quantity of stock purchases under this repurchase plan are at the discretion of management. During the second quarter of 2022, no shares of Summit’s common stock were repurchased under the Plan.

Asset Quality

Net loan charge-offs (“NCOs”) declined to $159,000, or 0.02 percent of average loans annualized, in the second quarter of 2022. NCOs of $509,000 represented 0.07 percent of average loan annualized in the linked quarter and $202,000 or 0.03 percent of average loan annualized in the year-ago period.

Summit recorded a $2.00 million provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 2022, reflecting reserve build to support the Company’s substantial growth in both loans and unfunded loan commitments and increasing forecasted economic uncertainty. The provision for credit losses was $1.95 million for the linked quarter and $1.00 million for the year-ago quarter.

Summit’s allowance for loan credit losses was $35.1 million on June 30, 2022, $32.6 million at the end of the linked quarter and $33.9 million on June 30, 2021.

The allowance for loan credit losses stood at 1.18 percent of total loans at June 30, 2022 compared to 1.17 percent at year-end 2021 and 1.39 percent at June 30, 2021. The allowance was 320.6 percent of nonperforming loans at June 30, 2022, compared to 254.4 percent at year-end 2021 and 148.2 percent at June 30, 2021.

Summit’s allowance for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments was $7.79 million on June 30, 2022, $8.39 million at the end of the linked quarter and $4.66 million on June 30, 2021. The allowance for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments decreased $600,000 during the most recent quarter, principally as result of a change in mix of unfunded commitments, whereas construction loan commitments, which have a higher historical loss ratio than do other loans as a whole, decreased while commercial unfunded lines of credit, which carry a lower loss factor and lower utilization rates, increased.

As of June 30, 2022, nonperforming assets (“NPAs”), consisting of nonperforming loans, foreclosed properties and repossessed assets, totaled $16.3 million, or 0.43 percent of assets, compared to NPAs of $18.6 million, or 0.51 percent of assets at the linked quarter-end, $22.6 million or 0.63 percent of assets at year-end 2021 and $36.0 million, or 1.10 percent of assets at the end of second quarter 2021. A loan relationship of $9.5 million impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and on nonaccrual at June 30, 2021 was restored to full accrual status in July 2021.
