WHITEHALL, Ohio, Jan. 23, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Heartland BancCorp (“Heartland” and “the Company”) (OTCQX: HLAN), parent company of Heartland Bank (“Bank”), today reported net income of $5.0 million, or $2.48 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2022, which was unchanged compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, and a modest decrease compared to $5.1 million, or $2.50 per diluted share, in the preceding quarter. For the year 2022, net income was $18.1 million, or $8.90 per diluted share, compared to $18.6 million, or $9.17 per diluted share, in 2021.
The company also announced that its board of directors increased its quarterly cash dividend by 10% to $0.759 per share. The dividend will be payable April 10, 2023, to shareholders of record as of March 25, 2023. Heartland has paid regular quarterly cash dividends since 1993.
“2023 was a substantial year of growth for Heartland, and our operating results reflect the continued success of our relationship banking model,” stated G. Scott McComb, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We accomplished record loan growth for the year, and more importantly, loan growth has really started to materialize across all lending segments. We have been able to capitalize on displacement within our markets by bringing on talented bankers and lending officers from other institutions, which is contributing to our success. Near the end of the fourth quarter, we opened our permanent office in Cincinnati, and we’ve been adding to our top-quality team as we continue to execute our Greater Cincinnati expansion strategy. Our brand of community banking is being well received in all of the markets that we serve, and we will continue in the year ahead to work to create value for our shareholders, our clients and our communities.”

Net loans were $1.39 billion at December 31, 2022, which was an 6.7% increase compared to $1.30 billion at September 30, 2022, and a 19.9% increase compared to $1.16 billion at December 31, 2021. Commercial loans increased 5.5% from year ago levels to $162.7 million, and comprise 11.6% of the total loan portfolio at December 31, 2022.

Deposits
Total deposits were $1.46 billion at December 31, 2022, a 7.9% increase compared to $1.35 billion at September 30, 2022, and a 16.0% increase compared to $1.26 billion at December 31, 2021. “We have been successful at growing deposit balances and, while we experienced some movement from savings accounts into time deposits during the fourth quarter, we remain focused on our deposit pricing,” said Babcanec. At December 31, 2022, noninterest bearing demand deposit accounts increased 9.2% compared to a year ago and represented 35.9% of total deposits; savings, NOW and money market accounts increased 3.5% compared to a year ago and represented 41.9% of total deposits, and CDs increased 72.1% compared to a year ago and comprised 22.2% of total deposits. The average cost of deposits was 0.70% in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to 0.30% in the third quarter of 2022, and 0.17% in the fourth quarter of 2021.
Shareholders’ Equity
Shareholders’ equity was $143.9 million at December 31, 2022, compared to $139.5 million three months earlier and $153.2 million a year earlier. The decrease in shareholders’ equity compared to a year ago was primarily due to a $22.5 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income related to an increase in the unrealized loss on available for sale securities reflecting the increase in market interest rates during the year. At December 31, 2022, Heartland’s tangible book value was $65.09 per share, compared to $62.90 at September 30, 2022, and $69.74 at December 31, 2021.
Heartland continues to maintain capital levels in excess of the requirements to be categorized as “well-capitalized” with tangible equity to tangible assets of 7.92% at December 31, 2022, compared to 8.09% at September 30, 2022, and 9.60% at December 31, 2021.
Operating Results
In the fourth quarter of 2022, Heartland generated a ROAA of 1.23% and a ROATCE of 15.63%, compared to 1.31% and 15.27%, respectively, in the third quarter of 2022 and 1.36% and 14.42%, respectively, in the fourth quarter a year ago.
Net Interest Income/Net Interest Margin
Net interest income, before the provision for loan losses, increased 18.0% to $15.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $13.4 million in the fourth quarter a year ago, and increased 4.1% compared to $15.2 million in the preceding quarter, which included a $490,000 recovery of nonaccrual interest on problem credits. Net interest income continued to benefit from higher yielding assets and the current rate environment. In addition, approximately $16,000 of the income recognized during the fourth quarter of 2022 was related to recognizing origination fees for PPP loan payoffs or forgiveness, compared to $30,000 recognized during the third quarter of 2022, and $846,000 recognized during the fourth quarter of 2021. For the year 2022, net interest income increased 12.8% to $57.0 million, compared to $50.5 million in 2021.
Total revenues (net interest income, before the provision for loan losses, plus noninterest income) was $18.3 million in the fourth quarter, a 6.4% increase compared to $17.2 million in the fourth quarter a year ago, and a 2.8% increase compared to $17.8 million in the preceding quarter. For the year 2022, total revenues increased 5.5% to $68.4 million, compared to $64.8 million in 2021.
Heartland’s net interest margin was 4.13% in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to 4.20% in the preceding quarter and improved by 27 basis points compared to 3.86% in the fourth quarter of 2021. The preceding quarter net interest margin included the above-mentioned recovery. Excluding the recovery, net interest margin would have been 4.06% for the third quarter of 2022. “Our net interest margin for the fourth quarter benefitted from strong net interest income generation, robust loan growth and rising interest rates. New loans that carry a higher interest rate, and variable rate loans are repricing, which is helping our net interest margin expand compared to a year ago, although funding costs have begun to catch up” said Carrie Almendinger, EVP, and Chief Financial Officer.
Heartland’s net interest margin continues to remain above the peer average posted by the Dow Jones U.S. MicroCap Bank Index with total market capitalization under $250 million as of September 30, 2022.*
*As of September 30, 2022, the Dow Jones U.S. MicroCap Bank Index tracked 154 banks with total common market capitalization under $250 million for the following ratios: NIM* of 3.70%.
Provision for Loan Losses
“We continue to make additions to the allowance for loan losses to reflect the steady level of new loan growth,” said McComb. “Overall credit quality remains strong, and we are well positioned for our conversion to the CECL loan loss methodology.”
Heartland recorded a $480,000 provision for loan losses in the fourth quarter of 2022, which was the same amount recorded in both the preceding quarter and the year ago quarter.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income decreased 34.5% to $2.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $3.8 million in the fourth quarter a year ago, and decreased 4.9% compared to $2.6 million in the preceding quarter. Gains on sale of loans, and originated mortgage servicing rights, decreased 83.7% to $218,000 in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $1.3 million in the fourth quarter a year ago, and increased 16.6% compared to $187,000 in the preceding quarter. For the year 2022, noninterest income decreased 20.4% to $11.4 million, compared to $14.3 million in 2021.
“Mortgage origination continues to be strong through the fourth quarter of 2022, although we’ve seen a shift to increased volumes of on-balance sheet, adjustable rate mortgages, leading to lower gains on sale,” said Almendinger.
Noninterest Expense
Heartland’s fourth quarter noninterest expenses totaled $11.8 million, compared to $11.1 million in the preceding quarter and $10.4 million in the fourth quarter a year ago. Salary and employee benefit expenses, the largest component of noninterest expense, were $7.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $7.1 million in the preceding quarter and $6.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. “The increase in salary and employee benefit expense is largely due to variable compensation related to increased loan production. Occupancy expense increased modestly due to the build out of the permanent office space in Cincinnati,” said Almendinger. “By expanding into the Cincinnati market organically, with a seasoned leader who has been established in that market for years, we have begun to broaden our client base and look forward to continuing to leverage this investment for future growth.” For the year, noninterest expense totaled $44.2 million, compared to $39.7 million in 2021.
The efficiency ratio for the fourth quarter of 2022 was 64.2%, compared to 62.0% for the preceding quarter and 60.5% for the fourth quarter of 2021.
Income Tax Provision
In the fourth quarter of 2022, Heartland recorded $1.0 million in state and federal income tax expense for an effective tax rate of 17.2%, compared to $1.2 million, or 19.4% in the third quarter of 2022 and $1.3 million or 20.5% in the fourth quarter a year ago. For the year, Heartland recorded $4.2 million in state and federal income tax expense for an effective tax rate of 18.7%, compared to $4.6 million, or 19.7% in 2021.
Credit Quality
At December 31, 2022, the allowance for loan losses (ALLL) was $16.6 million, or 1.18% of total loans, compared to $16.2 million, or 1.23% of total loans at September 30, 2022, and $15.0 million, or 1.28% of total loans a year ago. As of December 31, 2022, the ALLL represented 2,370% of nonaccrual loans, compared to 2,322% three months earlier and 925% one year earlier.
Nonaccrual loans were $700,000 at December 31, 2022, compared to $699,000 at September 30, 2022, and decreased 56.7% when compared to $1.6 million at December 31, 2021. Heartland had net loan charge-offs of $118,000 at December 31, 2022. This compared to $176,000 in net loan charge-offs at September 30, 2022, and $133,000 in net loan recoveries at December 31, 2021. There was $309,000 in loans past due 90 days and still accruing at December 31, 2022, compared to $404,000 at September 30, 2022, and $16,000 at December 31, 2021.
Heartland had zero performing restructured loans that were not included in nonaccrual loans, at December 31, 2022. This compared to $3.1 million in performing restructured loans at September 30, 2022. Borrowers who are in financial difficulty, and who have been granted concessions, including interest rate reductions, term extensions, or payment alterations, are categorized as restructured loans.
There was $5,000 in other real estate owned and other non-performing assets on the books at December 31, 2022, unchanged from three months earlier and one year earlier. Non-performing assets (NPAs), consisting of non-performing loans and loans past due 90 days or more, decreased 8.5% to $1.0 million, or 0.06% of total assets, at December 31, 2022, compared to $1.1 million, or 0.07% of total assets, at September 30, 2022, and decreased 38.1% when compared to $1.6 million, or 0.11% of total assets a year ago.
