Blue Ridge Bankshares, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2021 Earnings and Update to 2021 Paycheck Protection Program

Charlottesville, Va., April 29, 2021 – Blue Ridge Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE American: BRBS), the holding company of Blue Ridge Bank and VCB Financial Group, Inc., announced today unaudited first quarter 2021 net income of $4.2 million, or $0.28 earnings per common share, compared to $5.6 million, or $0.65 earnings per common share, for the fourth quarter of 2020, and $832 thousand, or $0.10 earnings per common share, for the first quarter of 2020. Earnings per common share for all periods presented is reflective of the three-for-two stock split effective April 30, 2021, as announced by the Company on March 17, 2021.

As previously announced, on January 31, 2021, the Company completed the merger of Bay Banks of Virginia, Inc. (“Bay Banks”), the holding company of Virginia Commonwealth Bank, into the Company. Immediately following the completion of the merger, Virginia Commonwealth Bank was merged into Blue Ridge Bank (collectively, the “Bay Banks Merger”).  Earnings for the first quarter of 2021 include the earnings of Bay Banks from the effective date of the merger.  Earnings for the first quarter of 2021 and fourth quarter of 2020 include approximately $9.0 million and $662 thousand, respectively, in expenses related to the Bay Banks Merger, and earnings for the first quarter of 2020 include approximately $269 thousand in expenses related to the Company’s December 2019 merger with Virginia Community Bankshares, Inc.

In March of 2021, the Company announced a three-for-two stock split to be effected in the form of a 50% dividend on its common stock outstanding, payable on April 30, 2021, to shareholders of record on April 20, 2021, with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares. Additionally, in March of 2021, the Company declared a dividend of $0.15 per common share, payable on April 30, 2021 to shareholders of record on April 20, 2021, on a pre-split basis.

The Company also announced today that through April 26, 2021 it had processed over 9,700 loan applications for a total of approximately $642 million of Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans pursuant to the Economic Aid Act, passed at the end of December 2020 (“PPP 2”).  Of these applications, nearly 7,000 loans for approximately $480 million had been approved by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”), as of this date.  In addition, through an unaffiliated partnership, the Company has funded approximately $200 million of PPP 2 loans through April 26, 2021.  PPP 2 loans, including those funded through this partnership, are expected to result in over $35 million of net processing fees for the Company.  The loans, if not forgiven, have a five-year term and a stated interest rate of 1%.

“Our team had an incredibly successful and productive first quarter,” said Brian K. Plum, President and Chief Executive Officer.  “We welcomed new team members and customers with the consummation of the Bay Banks merger, we continued to pour an incredible amount of energy into assisting small businesses with the Paycheck Protection Program, and we remained busy with mortgage volumes and assisting homebuyers in a very competitive market.”

“The last twelve months in our nation and across the world have been a whirlwind of emotions, volatility, and uncertainty,” Plum added.  “We are fortunate to have a team which remains steadfastly and passionately committed to the growth and success of each other, our customers, and our communities, and their efforts allowed us to have an outsized positive impact at the time we were needed most.”

Paycheck Protection Program

In 2020, the Company funded over 2,400 PPP loans reaching a peak of approximately $363.0 million, pursuant to the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“PPP 1”). Net processing fees earned by the Company for PPP 1 loans were approximately $11.5 million, of which $7.9 million in net fees were recognized in 2020.  Additionally, in 2020, Bay Banks funded approximately 700 loans for approximately $56.8 million pursuant to PPP 1 and earned approximately $2.4 million in processing fees, all of which had been recognized prior to or accelerated due to the Bay Banks Merger.  The Company is working with PPP 1 borrowers through the forgiveness phase of the program, and as of March 31, 2021, $261.0 million of PPP 1 loans were outstanding, including those acquired in the Bay Banks Merger.  Processing fees from PPP 1 in the amount of $2.2 million were recognized as interest income in the first quarter of 2021.  PPP 1 processing fees are being recognized over the expected life of the loans, which was approximately 1.5 years.

Through March 31, 2021, the Company had funded over 3,800 PPP 2 loans for approximately $348.0 million.  Processing fees from PPP 2 received, net of costs, in the first quarter of 2021 were $11.2 million, of which $1.1 million were recognized as interest income in the first quarter of 2021.  Net processing fees for PPP 2 loans are being recognized over the expected life of these loans, which is one to three years depending on the loan balance.

PPP loans are primarily funded using the Federal Reserve’s Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility (“PPPLF”).  The PPPLF provides funding for the full amount and term of the PPP loans and has a fixed cost of 0.35%. PPP loans do not count toward bank regulatory capital ratios.

Fintech Business

The Company’s efforts to partner with fintech providers began gaining critical mass in 2020 and continues in 2021.  The Company’s fintech business ended the first quarter of 2021 with four active partnerships, including Upgrade, Meritize, Flexible Finance, and Kashable, and six emerging partnerships, including Unit, Increase, Jaris, Aeldra, Grow Credit, and MentorWorks.  Fintech relationships have resulted in approximately $57.3 million in related deposits on the balance sheet as of March 31, 2021.

COVID-19 Update

In response to COVID-19, during 2020, the Company approved over 550 loan deferrals for a total of $110.6 million.  In addition, during 2020, Bay Banks approved nearly 400 loan deferrals for approximately $160.0 million.  Most of these loans are now past the deferment period and are back on normal payment schedules, and as of March 31, 2021, 30 loans were in deferment for a total of approximately $31.0 million.  Stimulus relief and the COVID-19 vaccine will hopefully lessen the continued hardships that consumers and businesses have faced up until now, but uncertainty remains as to the impact to be absorbed by the Company.  The Company is closely monitoring its past due loan portfolio and proactively staying in touch with borrowers, especially as it relates to high-risk industries.

Balance Sheet

The Company reported total assets of $3.17 billion at March 31, 2020, an increase of $1.67 billion from $1.50 billion at December 31, 2020. The increase in total assets was primarily due to the Bay Banks Merger, which increased assets by $1.22 billion at the effective date of the merger, and higher balances of PPP loans, which increased to $597.6 million at March 31, 2021 from $288.5 million at December 31,

  1. Of the increase in total assets due to the Bay Banks Merger, $1.03 billion were related to loans held for investment.  The preliminary purchase accounting adjustment (discount) to record the Bay Banks loan portfolio at estimated fair value as of January 31, 2021 was $17.9 million, or 1.70%, of the pre-adjusted portfolio balance.  No allowance for loan losses carried over in the business combination.

Total deposits at March 31, 2021 were $2.14 billion, an increase of $1.20 billion from December 31, 2020, of which $1.03 billion were assumed in the Bay Banks Merger as of the effective date.  The remaining increase in the first quarter of 2021 was primarily attributable to funds retained from PPP customers and additional customer deposits from economic stimulus funds granted by the federal government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic.  The Company’s expanding relationship with fintech partners has also resulted in deposit growth, as previously noted.

As previously noted, the majority of PPP loans were funded through the PPPLF, resulting in an increase in Federal Reserve Bank (FRB) advances.

Income Statement

Net Interest Income

Net interest income was $20.0 million for the first quarter of 2021 compared to $14.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2020 and $8.0 million for the first quarter of 2020. Net interest income in the first quarter of 2021 included net interest income added by the Bay Banks Merger from the effective date of the merger, January 31, 2021.  Included in interest income for the first quarter of 2021 were approximately $3.3 million and $1.2 million in PPP fees and interest income, respectively, whereas in the fourth quarter of 2020, PPP processing fees and interest income were $3.1 million and $887 thousand, respectively. Funding costs for PPP loans under the PPPLF resulted in approximately $303 thousand and $283 thousand for the first quarter of 2021 and fourth quarter of 2020, respectively, of interest expense.   Excluding net interest income from PPP loans, net interest income increased $5.5 million for the first quarter of 2021 compared to the fourth quarter of 2020. Additionally, the Company recognized Main Street Lending Program fee revenue of approximately $1.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, while there was none in the first quarter of 2021.

Net interest margin for the first quarter of 2021 was 3.43% compared to 3.88% for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 3.71% for the first quarter of 2020.  PPP loans, including the corresponding funding, had an approximately 5 basis point and 15 basis point positive effect on the Company’s net interest margin in the first quarter of 2021 and the fourth quarter of 2020, respectively.  Additionally, accretion and amortization of purchase accounting adjustments related to the Bay Banks Merger accounted for $996 thousand of net interest income and 17 basis points of net interest margin in the first quarter of 2021.  The Company continues to experience a decline in net interest margin as higher priced loans mature, partially offset by the re-pricing of higher priced term deposits.  Cost of deposits were 0.36% for the first quarter of 2021 compared to 0.56% for the fourth quarter of 2020 and 0.95% for the first quarter of 2020.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2021 was $15.8 million compared to $17.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2020 and $4.8 million for the first quarter of 2020.  Mortgage banking income was the main driver of noninterest income and represented 80.2% and 93.7% of other income for the first quarter of 2021 and the fourth quarter of 2020, respectively. The Company recognized $1.1 million in gains on the sale of government guaranteed loans in the first quarter of 2021, an increase of $973 thousand from the fourth quarter of 2020, as the Company added this business line in the latter part of 2020.  The Company expects this business line to be a more significant contributor of noninterest income in 2021.

Noninterest Expenses

Noninterest expenses for the first quarter of 2021 were $30.5 million compared to $22.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2020 and $11.2 million for the first quarter of 2020. Merger-related expenses for the first quarter of 2021 and the fourth and first quarters of 2020 were $9.0 million, $662 thousand, and $269 thousand, respectively.  Excluding merger-related expenses, noninterest expenses declined slightly ($157 thousand) from the fourth quarter of 2020 to the first quarter of 2021.  Salaries and employee benefits declined $1.3 million from the fourth quarter of 2020 to the first quarter of 2021.  This decline was primarily due to lower salaries and employee benefits in the Company’s mortgage operations in the first quarter of 2021 and greater bonus expenses recorded in the fourth quarter of 2020, partially offset by the costs of employees added with the Bay Banks Merger and other employee additions to primarily support the various noninterest business lines.  The decline in salaries and employee benefits was partially offset by increases in other noninterest expense categories due to the Bay Banks Merger.

Mortgage Division

The Company’s mortgage operations, which consists of its retail division operating as Monarch Mortgage and its wholesale division operating as LenderSelect Mortgage Group, recorded net income of $2.3 million for the first quarter of 2021 compared to $2.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. The primary driver of these earnings for the mortgage division was continued high volumes, largely due to the low rate environment, expansion of the retail business line, including the addition of Bay Banks’ retail mortgage business, and the retention of mortgage servicing rights (“MSRs”). Mortgage volume for the first quarter of 2021 was $361.4 million compared to $439.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. Income related to MSRs decreased to $3.4 million for the first quarter of 2021 from $3.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2020.

Asset Quality

Nonperforming loans, which include nonaccrual loans and loans 90 days or more past due, totaled $5.3 million at March 31, 2021, a decrease of $1.3 million from December 31, 2020.  The ratio of nonperforming loans to total assets was 0.17% as of March 31, 2021 compared to 0.44% as of December 31, 2020.  The Company’s allowance for loan losses was $13.4 million at March 31, 2021, or 0.58% as a percentage of gross loans held for investment, including PPP loans, compared to 1.35% at December 31, 2020.  The Company holds no allowance for loan losses on PPP loans as they are fully guaranteed by the U.S. government.  The ratio of allowance for loan losses to loans held for investment excluding PPP loans from the denominator was 0.79% and 1.89% as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.  The decrease in the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of gross loans held for investment since December 31, 2020 was primarily attributable to the Bay Banks Merger, as no allowance for loan losses carried over in the merger.  The remaining purchase accounting adjustment (discount) related to loans acquired in the Bay Banks Merger and the Virginia Community Bankshares, Inc. and River Bancorp, Inc. mergers was $18.7 million as of March 31, 2021 compared to $1.2 million as of December 31, 2020.  The Company recorded no provision for loan losses in the first quarter of 2021 compared to a provision of $2.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2020.  In 2020, the Company increased its allowance for loan losses in response to potential credit losses as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Capital

The Company continually monitors its capital position and remains confident in its ability to maintain capital levels at amounts required for regulatory purposes and for the payment of its common stock dividend.  The Company may, depending on conditions, find it necessary to suspend common stock

dividends.  Tangible book value per share, a non-GAAP (defined below) measure, was $11.02 and $10.03 as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The accounting and reporting policies of the Company conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and prevailing practices in the banking industry.  However, management uses certain non-GAAP measures to supplement the evaluation of the Company’s performance. Management believes presentations of these non-GAAP financial measures provide useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the operating results of the Company’s core businesses.  These non-GAAP disclosures should not be viewed as a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies. Reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP measures are included at the end of this release.
