Northrim BanCorp Earns $4.8 Million, or $0.83 Per Diluted Share, in Second Quarter 2022


ANCHORAGE, Alaska, July 28, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Northrim BanCorp, Inc. (NASDAQ:NRIM) (“Northrim” or the "Company") today reported net income of $4.8 million, or $0.83 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $7.2 million, or $1.20 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2022, and $8.3 million, or $1.33 per diluted share, in the second quarter a year ago. The decline in second quarter 2022 profitability as compared to the prior periods was primarily due to a continued decline in mortgage banking income, an increase in the provision for credit losses due to loan growth, and a decrease in the value of marketable equity securities. The decrease in the value of marketable equity securities reduced net income by $810,000 or $0.14 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2022. These items were partially offset by a 15% increase in net interest income in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the prior quarter as interest income increased and interest expense remained stable.

Dividends per share remained at $0.41 in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2022 and increased from $0.37 per share in the second quarter of 2021. Share repurchases also continued with 200,619 shares of common stock, or 3.5% of shares outstanding, repurchased in the second quarter.

“Second quarter results benefited from rising interest rates resulting in a 15% increase in net interest income but were negatively impacted by certain items and the continued slowdown in mortgage originations,” said Joe Schierhorn, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our core deposit base, asset sensitivity, and continued market share gains should continue to drive improved margins and profitability in a rising interest rate environment.”

2nd Quarter Update:

  • Growth and Paycheck Protection Program:
    • In 2020 and 2021, Northrim funded a total of nearly 5,800 PPP loans totaling $612.6 million to both existing and new customers. Management estimates that Northrim funded approximately 24% of the number and 32% of the value of all Alaska PPP second round loans.

    • As of June 30, 2022, PPP has resulted in 2,344 new customers totaling $69.7 million in non-PPP loans, and $132.4 million in new deposit balances.

    • As of June 30, 2022, Northrim customers had received forgiveness through the U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA") on 5,407 PPP loans totaling $582.0 million, of which 417 PPP loans totaling $33.7 million were forgiven in the second quarter of 2022, 537 PPP loans totaling $56.9 million were forgiven in the first quarter of 2022, and 4,451 PPP loans totaling $491.4 million were forgiven in 2021. Of the PPP loans forgiven in the second quarter of 2022, 414 loans totaling $33.4 million related to PPP round two. As of June 30, 2022, approximately 99% of the number of PPP round one loans funded and 88% of the number of PPP round two loans funded have been forgiven.
  • Customer Accommodations: The Company implemented assistance to help its customers experiencing financial challenges as a result of COVID-19 in addition to participation in PPP lending. As of June 30, 2022, these accommodations include interest only and deferral options on loan payments. The total outstanding principal balance of loan modifications due to the impacts of COVID-19 as of June 30, 2022, March 31, 2022, and June 30, 2021 were as follows:

The $23.6 million COVID-19 loan accommodations as of June 30, 2022 are scheduled to return to normal principal and interest payments in 2022.

  • Provision for Credit Losses: Northrim booked a provision for credit losses of $463,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. This compares to a benefit for credit loss provisions of $150,000 during the previous quarter and a $427,000 benefit for credit losses in the second quarter a year ago. The provision for the current quarter was recorded using a discounted cash flow model under the Current Expected Credit Loss ("CECL") methodology and reflects expected lifetime credit losses on loans and off-balance sheet unfunded loan commitments. The increase in the provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 2022 is primarily the result of growth in core loans.
  • Credit Quality: Nonaccrual loans, net of government guarantees decreased to $7.3 million at June 30, 2022, compared to $8.7 million in the previous quarter, and $12.0 million at June 30, 2021. Net adversely classified loans decreased to $8.8 million at June 30, 2022, compared to $11.7 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $14.1 million in the second quarter a year ago. Net loan charge-offs were $46,000 in the second quarter of 2022, compared to net loan charge-offs of $262,000 in the first quarter and $64,000 in the second quarter of 2021.
  • Capital Management: At June 30, 2022, the Company’s tangible common equity to tangible assets* ratio was 7.68% and the capital of Northrim Bank (the "Bank") was well in excess of all regulatory requirements. During the second quarter of 2022, the Company repurchased 200,619 shares of common stock under the previously announced share repurchase programs, with no shares remaining of the 300,000 shares previously authorized for repurchase in February 2022.

Alaska Economic Update
(Note: sources for information included in this section are included on page 12.)

The Alaska economy has seen continued job growth and personal income gains. A strong rebound in tourism activity, coupled with high oil prices has benefited the state. “The national focus on supply chain issues and the desire for more domestic production should improve the demand for Alaska’s vast natural resources,” stated Mark Edwards, EVP Chief Credit Officer and Bank Economist. “Like the rest of the nation, Alaska’s housing market saw large price increases over the last year. However, we expect the rapidly rising interest rate environment to temper the Alaska housing market in the second half of 2022.”

The Alaska Department of Labor ("DOL") has released data through May of 2022. The DOL reports total payroll jobs in Alaska increased 2.9% or 8,900 jobs compared to May of 2021. The Leisure and Hospitality sector showed the fastest year over year increase of 12.4%. Tourism related jobs were the hardest hit from the pandemic travel restrictions, but were also the quickest to rebound. The Oil and Gas sector has benefited from high energy prices and added 600 jobs since May of 2021, a 9.1% increase. Other sectors showing improvement over the last 12 months include Trade, Warehousing, and Utilities (+6.8%), Other Services (+4.8%); Financial Activities (+2.8%), and Professional and Business Services (+2.6%). The only private sectors to decline year over year were Manufacturing (-2.9%) and Information (-2.1%). The Government sector was up slightly by 0.6%, an increase of 500 jobs through May 2022 year-over-year.

Alaska’s Gross State Product (“GSP”), was estimated to be $58 billion at the end of 2021 by the Federal Bureau of Economic Analysis ("BEA"). This was a 0.3% increase in 2021 over 2020 figures. The BEA also calculated Alaska’s seasonally adjusted personal income was $49 billion in 2021, an improvement of 5.9% over 2020. This was largely a result of COVID related government transfer payments and an improvement in employment leading to higher wage income last year.

The price of Alaska North Slope crude oil began 2021 averaging $55.56 a barrel in January and climbed steadily throughout the year due to rising global demand to a monthly average high of $84.36 in October 2021. 2022 began with a monthly average of $86.50 a barrel in January and surpassed $100 in March after the war in Ukraine began. Prices increased in the second quarter of 2022, reaching a monthly average of $120.17 a barrel in June.

Alaska’s home mortgage delinquency level continues to be better than most of the nation. According to the Mortgage Bankers Association, Alaska’s delinquency rate in the first quarter of 2022 was 3.49% compared to the national average rate of 3.84%. The Mortgage Bankers Association survey reported that the mortgage foreclosure rate in Alaska in the first quarter of 2022 was identical to the national average rate of 0.53%.

According to the Alaska Multiple Listing Services, the average sales price of a single family home in Anchorage rose 6.9% in 2021 to $424,148. In the first six months of 2022 prices climbed another 7.5% to $456,052. Average sales prices in the Matanuska Susitna Borough rose 15.6% in 2021 and another 11% in the first six months of 2022 to $386,429. These two markets represent where the vast majority of the Bank’s residential lending activity occurs. Prices also increased 13.9% in the Fairbanks North Star Borough, 13.4% in the Kenai Peninsula Borough, and 13.8% in the Kodiak Island Borough in 2021.

The number of housing units sold in Anchorage was up significantly in 2021 by 11.2%, following an increase of 19.5% in 2020, as reported by the Alaska Multiple Listing Services. The Matanuska Susitna Borough also had strong sales activity, up 11.7% in 2021 and 9.7% in 2020.

Review of Income Statement

Consolidated Income Statement

In the second quarter of 2022, Northrim generated a ROAA of 0.74% and a ROAE of 8.58%, compared to 1.12% and 12.36%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2022 and 1.40% and 14.10%, respectively, in the second quarter a year ago.

Net Interest Income/Net Interest Margin

Net interest income increased 16% to $22.2 million in the second quarter of 2022 compared to $19.2 million in the second quarter of 2021 and increased 15% compared to $19.3 million in the first quarter of 2022. Interest income continues to benefit from the amortization of PPP loan fees and the full recognition of the deferred PPP loan fees upon forgiveness by the SBA. During the second quarter of 2022, Northrim received $33.7 million in loan forgiveness through the SBA, compared to $56.9 million in loan forgiveness during the prior quarter, resulting in total net PPP fee income of $1.3 million and $2.1 million, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, there was $1.1 million of net deferred PPP fee income remaining.

NIMTE* was 3.70% in the second quarter of 2022 compared to 3.20% in the preceding quarter and 3.50% in the second quarter a year ago. NIMTE* increased 50 basis points in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the prior quarter and 20 basis points compared to the second quarter of 2021 primarily due to higher yields on portfolio loans, investments, and interest bearing deposits in other banks. The weighted average interest rate for new loans booked in the second quarter of 2022 was 4.66% compared to 4.02% in the first quarter of 2022 and 3.59% in the second quarter a year ago. Additionally, the Company purchased long-term investments in the second quarter of 2022 with a weighted average yield of 3.22% compared to 1.93% in the first quarter of 2022 and 0.93% in the second quarter a year ago. Also notable during the second quarter of 2022 was the impact of SBA PPP loan fees and interest on net interest income, which increased our NIMTE* by 18 basis points during the quarter compared to what our NIMTE* would have been if we had not made any SBA PPP loans. “We expect our net interest margin to continue to improve with increases in interest rates in 2022, as nearly 75% of our loan portfolio has adjusting rates and our large cash position will reprice immediately upon any rate increases,” said Jed Ballard, Chief Financial Officer. Northrim's NIMTE* continues to remain above the peer average posted by the S&P U.S. Small Cap Bank Index with total market capitalization between $250 million and $1 billion as of March 31, 20221.

Provision for Credit Losses

Northrim recorded a provision for credit losses of $463,000 in the second quarter of 2022, which includes a $189,000 provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments and a provision for credit losses on loans of $274,000. This compares to a benefit to the provision for credit losses of $150,000 in the first quarter of 2022, and a benefit to the provision for credit losses of $427,000 in the second quarter a year ago. The provision for credit losses in the second quarter of 2022 is largely attributable to the growth in our core loan portfolio.

Nonperforming loans, net of government guarantees, decreased during the quarter to $7.3 million at June 30, 2022, compared to $8.7 million at March 31, 2022, and decreased compared to $12.0 million at June 30, 2021. The allowance for credit losses was 158% of nonperforming loans, net of government guarantees, at the end of the second quarter of 2022, compared to 130% three months earlier and 121% a year ago.

 

 

1As of March 31, 2022, the S&P U.S. Small Cap Bank Index tracked 289 banks with total common market capitalization between $250 million to $1B for the following ratios: NIMTE* of 2.78%.

Other Operating Income

In addition to home mortgage lending, Northrim has interests in other businesses that complement its core community banking activities, including purchased receivables financing and wealth management. Other operating income contributed $7.8 million, or 26% of total second quarter 2022 revenues, as compared to $10.8 million, or 36% of revenues in the first quarter of 2022, and $14.1 million, or 42% of revenues in the second quarter of 2021. The decrease in other operating income in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to the preceding quarter is primarily the result of $2.0 million in life insurance proceeds received in the first quarter of 2022 in connection with the death of the Company’s former Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Corporate Secretary who passed away on November 11, 2021. Additionally, there were decreases in the value of marketable equity securities and mortgage banking income. These decreases were only partially offset by increases in bankcard fees, purchased receivable income, and service charges on deposit accounts. The decrease in other operating income in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to the second quarter a year ago was due primarily to a lower volume of mortgage activity.

Other Operating Expenses

Operating expenses were $23.2 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $21.1 million in the first quarter of 2022, and $22.3 million in the second quarter of 2021. The increase in other operating expenses in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2022 is primarily due to increased salaries and other personnel expense and higher mortgage commissions expense due to higher mortgage volume, as well as increased marketing expense due to the timing of payments for charitable contributions.

Income Tax Provision

In the second quarter of 2022, Northrim recorded $1.5 million in state and federal income tax expense for an effective tax rate of 24.1%, compared to $2.0 million, or 21.3% in the first quarter of 2022 and $3.1 million, or 26.9% in the second quarter a year ago. The increase in the tax rate in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to the first quarter of 2022 is primarily the result of a decrease in tax credits and tax exempt interest income as a percentage of pre-tax income.

Community Banking

Net interest income in the Community Banking segment totaled $21.6 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $18.9 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $18.5 million in the second quarter of 2021. Net interest income benefited from $1.5 million of PPP income in the second quarter of 2022, and $2.3 million of PPP income in the first quarter of 2022. As of June 30, 2022, there was $1.1 million of unearned loan fees net of costs related to round one and round two PPP loans.

Home Mortgage Lending

During the second quarter of 2022, mortgage loan volume increased to $191.0 million, of which 90% was for new home purchases, compared to $143.6 million and 76% of loans funded for new home purchases in the first quarter of 2022, and decreased as compared to $286.3 million, of which 69% was for new home purchases in the second quarter of 2021. The rising interest rate environment has caused the housing market to slow down compared to prior year and decreased the yields on mortgage loans sold in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to the prior quarter and the second quarter of the prior year.

The net change in fair value of mortgage servicing rights decreased mortgage banking income by $250,000 during the second quarter of 2022, primarily due to an increase in the discount rate used to value the mortgage servicing rights, which was generally caused by the increase in mortgage rates and only partially offset by a reduction in estimated prepayment speeds.

As of June 30, 2022, Northrim serviced 3,241 loans in its $818.3 million home-mortgage-servicing portfolio, a 4% increase compared to the $789.4 million serviced for the first quarter of 2022, and a 15% increase from the $713.9 million serviced a year ago. Delinquencies in the loan servicing portfolio totaled 2.6% at June 30, 2022, compared to 3.3% at June 30, 2021. Mortgage servicing revenue contributed $1.9 million to revenues in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $1.8 million in the first quarter of 2022, and $2.5 million in the second quarter of 2021.

Total mortgage servicing income fluctuates based on the number of mortgage servicing rights originated during the period and changes in the fair value of those servicing rights. The fair value of mortgage servicing rights is driven by interest rate volatility and the number of serviced mortgages that pay off during the period, as well as fluctuations in estimated prepayment speeds based on published industry metrics. The change in the fair value of mortgage servicing rights was a decrease of $250,000 for the second quarter of 2022, compared to an increase of $711,000 for the first quarter of 2022 and a decrease of $567,000 for the second quarter of 2021.

Balance Sheet Review

Northrim’s total assets were $2.61 billion at June 30, 2022, down 1% from the preceding quarter and up 6% from a year ago. Northrim’s loan-to-deposit ratio was 60% at June 30, 2022, up slightly from 59% at March 31, 2022, and down from 69% at June 30, 2021.

Liquidity levels remain high with interest bearing deposits in other banks at $312.9 million, representing 13% of interest-earning assets as of June 30, 2022, compared to 14% at June 30, 2021.

Average interest-earning assets were $2.43 billion in the second quarter of 2022, down 1% from $2.46 billion in the first quarter of 2022 and up 10% from $2.22 billion in the second quarter a year ago. The average yield on interest-earning assets was 3.83% in the second quarter of 2022, up from 3.33% in the preceding quarter and 3.69% in the second quarter a year ago.

Average investment securities increased to $589.6 million in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $491.0 million in the first quarter of 2022 and $354.3 million in the second quarter a year ago. The average net tax equivalent yield on the securities portfolio was 1.59% for the second quarter of 2022, up from 1.23% in the preceding quarter and up from 1.32% in the year ago quarter. The average estimated duration of the investment portfolio at June 30, 2022, was approximately three and a half years.

“Core loans, excluding PPP loans, increased $60.7 million during the second quarter of 2022 as compared to the first quarter of 2022 as new customer relationships continued to expand and grow,” said Michael Huston, Bank President and Chief Lending Officer. At June 30, 2022, commercial loans represented 38% of total loans, PPP loans represented 2% of total loans, commercial real estate owner occupied loans comprised 17% of total loans, commercial real estate non-owner occupied loans comprised 29% of total loans, and construction loans made up 9% of total loans. Portfolio loans were $1.41 billion at June 30, 2022, up 2% from the preceding quarter and down 6% from a year ago. Portfolio loans excluding the impact from PPP (core loans) were $1.37 billion at June 30, 2022 up 5% from the preceding quarter and up 16% from a year ago. Average portfolio loans in the second quarter of 2022 were $1.40 billion, which was up 1% from the preceding quarter and down 9% from a year ago. Yields on average portfolio loans in the second quarter of 2022 increased to 5.52% from 5.27% in the first quarter of 2022 and increased from 4.75% in the second quarter of 2021. The increase in the yield on portfolio loans in the second quarter of 2022 compared to the first quarter of 2022 is primarily due to loan repricing due to the increases in interest rates and new loans booked at higher rates due to changes in the interest rate environment.

Alaskans continue to account for substantially all of Northrim’s deposit base, which is primarily made up of low-cost transaction accounts. Total deposits were $2.34 billion at both June 30, 2022 and March 31, 2022, up 9% from $2.15 billion a year ago. Demand deposits increased by 2% from the prior quarter and increased 4% year-over-year to $830.2 million at June 30, 2022. Average interest-bearing deposits were down 1% to $1.51 billion with an average cost of 0.16% in the second quarter of 2022, compared to $1.53 billion and an average cost of 0.15% in the first quarter of 2022, and up 15% compared to $1.32 billion and an average cost of 0.27% in the second quarter of 2021.

Shareholders’ equity was $215.3 million, or $37.90 book value per share, at June 30, 2022, compared to $225.8 million, or $38.39 book value per share, at March 31, 2022 and $237.2 million, or $38.22 book value per share, a year ago. Tangible book value per share* was $35.08 at June 30, 2022, compared to $35.67 at March 31, 2022, and $35.64 per share a year ago. The decrease in shareholders' equity in the second quarter of 2022 as compared to the first quarter of 2022 was largely the result of $8.2 million for the repurchase of stock during the quarter, as well as the decrease in the fair value of the available for sale securities portfolio, which decreased $5.5 million, net of tax, and dividends paid of $2.3 million, which was only partially offset by earnings of $4.8 million. Northrim continues to maintain capital levels in excess of the requirements to be categorized as “well-capitalized” with Tier 1 Capital to Risk Adjusted Assets of 12.74% at June 30, 2022, compared to 13.76% at March 31, 2022, and 14.54% at June 30, 2021.

Asset Quality

Nonperforming assets ("NPAs") net of government guarantees were $11.7 million at June 30, 2022, down from $13.1 million at March 31, 2022 and from $17.8 million a year ago. Of the NPAs at June 30, 2022, $5.9 million, or 74% are nonaccrual loans related to five commercial relationships. One of these relationships, which totaled $915,000 at June 30, 2022, is a business in the medical industry.

Net adversely classified loans were $8.8 million at June 30, 2022, as compared to $11.7 million at March 31, 2022, and $14.1 million a year ago. Adversely classified loans are loans that Northrim has classified as substandard, doubtful, and loss, net of government guarantees. Net loan charge-offs were $46,000 in the second quarter of 2022, compared to net loan charge-offs of $262,000 in the first quarter of 2022, and net loan charge-offs of $64,000 in the second quarter of 2021.

Performing restructured loans that were not included in nonaccrual loans at June 30, 2022, net of government guarantees were $588,000, down from $596,000 three months earlier and down from $777,000 a year ago. Borrowers who are in financial difficulty and who have been granted concessions that may include interest rate reductions, term extensions, or payment alterations are categorized as restructured loans, unless it is the result of the COVID-19 global pandemic. The Company presents restructured loans that are performing separately from those that are classified as nonaccrual to provide more information on this category of loans and to differentiate between accruing performing and nonperforming restructured loans.

Excluding SBA PPP loans, Northrim had $121.3 million, or 9% of total portfolio loans, in the Healthcare sector; $96.6 million, or 7% of portfolio loans, in the Tourism sector; $63.1 million, or 5% in Retail loans; $50.0 million, or 4% of portfolio loans, in the Aviation (non-tourism) sector; $59.9 million, or 4% in the Accommodations sector; $58.5 million, or 4% in the Fishing sector; and $51.1 million, or 4% in the Restaurants and Breweries sector as of June 30, 2022.

Northrim estimates that $59.2 million, or approximately 4% of portfolio loans excluding SBA PPP loans, had direct exposure to the oil and gas industry in Alaska, as of June 30, 2022, and $3.2 million of these loans are adversely classified. As of June 30, 2022, Northrim has an additional $68.1 million in unfunded commitments to companies with direct exposure to the oil and gas industry in Alaska, and none of these unfunded commitments are considered to be adversely classified loans. Northrim defines direct exposure to the oil and gas sector as loans to borrowers that provide oilfield services and other companies that have been identified as significantly reliant upon activity in Alaska related to the oil and gas industry, such as lodging, equipment rental, transportation and other logistics services specific to this industry.

Forward-Looking Statement

This release may contain “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined for purposes of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. These statements are, in effect, management’s attempt to predict future events, and thus are subject to various risks and uncertainties. Readers should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which reflect management’s views only as of the date hereof. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, regarding our financial position, business strategy, management’s plans and objectives for future operations, and statements related to the expected or potential impact of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic and the related responses of the government are forward-looking statements. When used in this report, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” and “intend” and words or phrases of similar meaning, as they relate to Northrim and its management are intended to help identify forward-looking statements. Although we believe that management’s expectations as reflected in forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure readers that those expectations will prove to be correct. Forward looking statements, whether concerning the COVID-19 pandemic and the government responses related thereto or otherwise, are subject to various risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results to differ materially and adversely from our expectations as indicated in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include: the uncertainties relating to the impact of COVID-19 on the Company's credit quality, business, operations and employees; the impact of the results of government initiatives on the regulatory landscape, natural resource extraction industries, capital markets, and the response to and management of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the effectiveness of previously-enacted fiscal stimulus from the federal government and a potential infrastructure bill; the timing of PPP loan forgiveness; the impact of interest rates, inflation, supply-chain constraints, trade policies and tensions, including tariffs, and potential geopolitical instability, including the war in Ukraine; our ability to maintain strong asset quality and to maintain or expand our market share or net interest margins; and our ability to execute our business plan. Further, actual results may be affected by our ability to compete on price and other factors with other financial institutions; customer acceptance of new products and services; the regulatory environment in which we operate; and general trends in the local, regional and national banking industry and economy as those factors relate to our cost of funds and return on assets. In addition, there are risks inherent in the banking industry relating to collectability of loans and changes in interest rates. Many of these risks, as well as other risks that may have a material adverse impact on our operations and business, are identified in the “Risk Factors” section of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, and from time to time are disclosed in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. However, you should be aware that these factors are not an exhaustive list, and you should not assume these are the only factors that may cause our actual results to differ from our expectations. These forward-looking statements are made only as of the date of this release, and Northrim does not undertake any obligation to release revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or conditions after the date of this release.

Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although we believe these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by stakeholders in the evaluation of the Company, they have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results as reported under GAAP.
