(UCBI) headquartered in Blairsville, GA with regional headquarters in Greenville, SC. This partnership will allow us to offer expanded products and services to our customers throughout the Myrtle Beach MSA and improve total banking relationships.”
Financial Highlights
During the first quarter of 2017, the Company reported net income of $293,000, as compared to net income of $1.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2016 and a net loss of $3.7 million in the first quarter of 2016. Net income, excluding provision for loan losses and income tax expense (non-GAAP), for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 was $293,000, an increase of $264,000 as compared to net income, excluding provision for loan losses and income tax benefit (non-GAAP), of $29,000 for the fourth quarter of 2016. Noninterest expense continued to decrease in the first quarter and was down $144,000 quarter-over-quarter as the net cost of operation of other real estate owned (“OREO”) decreased $102,000 and salary and employee benefit costs decreased $56,000 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2016.
The Company saw strong loan growth of $13.9 million, or 6%, for the first quarter of 2017 and totaled $229.0 million at March 31, 2017. Total deposits increased $9.1 million, or 3%, and totaled $322.3 million at March 31, 2017, compared to $313.3 million at December 31, 2016, as non-interest bearing demand accounts increased $2.3 million and interest-bearing accounts increased $26.4 million. Time deposits decreased $19.7 million, as management continued to focus on reducing the Company’s internet-based time deposits which were not renewed at maturity.
Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income increased $119,000, or 5%, quarter-over-quarter, totaling $2.6 million for the first quarter of 2017 as compared to $2.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2016 and $1.9 million in the first quarter of 2016. Net interest margin increased 22 basis points to 3.08% for the quarter ended March 31, 2017 from 2.86% for the quarter ended December 31, 2016. The increase in net interest margin is primarily the result of a 6 basis point increase in yields on loans, a 9 basis point increase in yields on investment securities, and a 27 basis point increase in yields on interest-bearing deposits held with other financial institutions. The cost of liabilities also decreased as the cost of long-term borrowings decreased 32 basis points due to refinancing of certain Federal Home Loan Bank advances in the fourth quarter of 2016. The cost of deposits remained stable in the first quarter of 2017. Net interest margin for the first quarter of 2016 was 2.4% as the cost of borrowings were 5.91% due to outstanding subordinated debt and trust preferred securities that were redeemed in the second quarter of 2016.
Non-Interest Income
Non-interest income was $413,000 in the first quarter of 2017 compared to $412,000 in the fourth quarter of 2016 and $416,000 in the first quarter of 2016. There were no gains or losses on the sale of assets or securities in the first quarter of 2017 or the fourth quarter of 2016, while the Company recorded $17,000 in gains on the sale of securities in the first quarter of 2016.
Non-Interest Expense
Non-interest expense was $2.7 million in the first quarter of 2017 compared to $2.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2016 and $4.2 million in the first quarter of 2016. Decreases in non-interest expense from the fourth quarter of 2016 to the first quarter of 2017 were due primarily to a $56,000 decrease in compensation expense due to a decrease in employees and a $102,000 decrease in net cost of operation of other real estate owned as the company recorded gains on the sale of OREO and was released from a previously recorded liability. Partially offsetting these decreases was an increase in legal and professional fees, which increased $66,000 from the fourth quarter of 2016 to the first quarter of 2017.
Asset Quality
Overall asset quality continued to improve in the first quarter of 2017, as the Bank’s classified assets to Tier 1 capital ratio decreased to 36.6% at March 31, 2017. This compares to a classified assets to Tier 1 capital ratio of 46.4% and 336.9% at December 31, 2016 and March 31, 2016, respectively. OREO decreased by $270,000 during the quarter to $2.6 million at March 31, 2017 due to the sale of a property. Nonperforming loans decreased by $110,000 to $1.9 million at March 31, 2017. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets was 1.18% at March 31, 2017 as compared to 1.31% at December 31, 2016 and the ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans was 0.84% at the end of the first quarter of 2017 as compared to 0.94% at the end of the fourth quarter of 2016.
Allowance for Loan Losses
At March 31, 2017, the allowance for loan losses was $3.7 million, compared to $3.8 million at December 31, 2016. As a percentage of total loans held-for-investment, the allowance for loan losses was 1.62% as of March 31, 2017, down from 1.74% at December 31, 2016. Overall, the decrease in the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was due to a decrease in specific reserves. Out of the $3.7 million in total allowance for loan losses at March 31, 2017, specific allowances for impaired loans accounted for $593,000 as compared to $643,000 in the fourth quarter of 2016.
Balance Sheet and Capital
Total assets increased $8.7 million during the first quarter of 2017, as gross loans (including loans held-for-sale) increased $13.9 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2016. Total deposits also increased $9.1 million and totaled $322.3 million at March 31, 2017, compared to $313.3 million at December 31, 2016.
As of March 31, 2017 the Bank’s leverage ratio, Common Equity Tier 1 ratio (CET1), Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio, and total risk-based capital ratio were 10.08%, 14.69%, 14.69% and 15.94%, respectively.
