Exhibit 99.1

Southern National Bancorp of Virginia, Inc. announces earnings of $9.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to $8.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2019

Southern National Bancorp of Virginia, Inc. also declares a dividend of $0.10 per share, its thirty-sixth consecutive quarterly dividend.

MCLEAN, Va., Oct. 26, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Southern National Bancorp of Virginia, Inc. (NASDAQ: SONA) ("Southern National" or the "Company"), and its wholly-owned subsidiary Sonabank (the "Bank"), today announced net income of $9.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to $8.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. Earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2020 were $0.40 basic and $0.39 diluted compared to $0.37 basic and $0.36 diluted for the three months ended September 30, 2019.

Earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were $14.3 million compared to $24.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Earnings per share for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 were $0.59 basic and diluted compared to $1.01 basic and $0.99 diluted for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

The Board of Directors also announces and declares a dividend of $0.10 per share payable on November 20, 2020 to shareholders of record on November 9, 2020. This is Southern National's thirty-sixth consecutive quarterly dividend.

Commenting on the quarter, President and CEO Dennis J. Zember, Jr. said, "We finished an outstanding quarter with record net income and a substantially improved picture on deferrals. Compared to last year, we are seeing higher levels of pre-tax, pre-provision earnings thanks to modestly higher net interest income, solid results in fee income and an impressive efficiency ratio. Our credit team has worked diligently with each of our deferred loan customers, moving our current level of deferred loans down dramatically. As we work to finish out the year, we are going to stay focused on credit quality and credit trends and build an impressive story for loan and deposit growth in 2021."

Highlights for the three months ended September 30, 2020 include:

  • Loans on deferral declined significantly.  Management estimates that deferrals at the end of October, 2020 (end of our initial round of six month deferrals) to be approximately $115 million, or 4.2% of loans, compared to $707.8 million at the end of the second quarter and $429.7 million at the end of the third quarter.
  • Total revenue of $29.3 million, up 22% against same quarter in 2019.
  • Total deposits increased $37.7 million despite a $300.2 million decline in CD over the last 12 months.
  • Demand deposits (NIB, NOW, MMDA) increased to 66.6% of total deposits compared to 53.7% at same time in 2019.
  • Cost of deposits declined to 0.80% at the end of the third quarter of 2020 compared to 1.47%
  • The Company booked its first Panacea customers, a treasury deposit account.
  • Our operating efficiency ratio of 52.79% for the third quarter of 2020 compared to 52.76% in the same quarter of 2019.
  • Another sizable contribution from our mortgage investment of $3.8 million for the quarter.
  • Pretax preprovision (PTPP) earnings of $14.0 million or 1.78% of average assets for the quarter compared to $11.4 or 1.65% in the same quarter in 2019.
  • Total assets increased to approximately $3.2 billion at September 30, 2020.
  • Successful completion of a $60 million subordinated debt offering during the quarter.
  • Tangible book value per share of $11.53 at September 30, 2020 has increased 6.68% since a year ago despite significant build in loan loss reserves and steady dividends.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income increased to $23.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 or $2.0 million due to higher levels of average earning assets compared to the three months ended

September 30, 2019. The Company's reported net interest margin for the current quarter declined to 3.18% compared to 3.37% in the same quarter in 2019. Several temporary items account for substantially all of the decline in the margin. First, the impact of lending in the PPP program in the current quarter lowered the margin by 10 basis points and secondly, the impact of higher cash balances as a percentage of earning assets resulting from successful efforts on deposit sales reduced the margin by six basis points compared to the same quarter in 2019.

Loan yields in the current quarter were 4.60%, excluding the effect of PPP loans compared to 5.21% in the same quarter of 2019. Lower yields on loans are the results of the significant decline in interest rates in the first half of the year, which has also affected the Company's funding costs. Despite aggressive efforts to increase core deposits and shift the Company's deposit mix, total funding costs have still declined to 0.83%. Loan yields are expected to remain more stable and management believes that there is a likelihood for increased core margins and profitability levels from this global repricing activity.

Commenting on the trends around net interest margin, Mr. Zember stated "We recognize that our deposit costs are higher than our peers and are using this in the short-term to continue shifting our deposit mix away from CDs. We expect that early in 2021, we will have moved time deposits to below 20% of total deposits and will start working to lower deposit costs in a way that will not affect the stability of our deposit base. As we have stated, we expect to finish 2021 with the deposit side of our balance sheet balanced more similarly to our peers with costs that are in-line with the industry."

Noninterest Income

During the three months ended September 30, 2020, Southern National had non-interest income of $6.3 million compared to $3.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Income on account maintenance and deposit service fees declined $204 thousand primarily in account service charges and NSF fees. Gains on our investment in Southern Trust Mortgage ("STM") increased to $3.8 million compared to $599 thousand in the same quarter in 2019, driven by higher margins on closed loans and materially higher volumes from refinance activity as well as production from new hires and teams that were on boarded in the second half of 2019.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense was $15.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to the $12.6 million reported for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Employee compensation and benefits expense increased $1.3 million due to increased staffing in the commercial lending and Panacea divisions along with modified incentive and bonus plans. Occupancy and equipment expense increased $669 thousand. Professional Services increased $821 thousand due to consulting and legal services which are wholly centered on improving systems integration and technology or fees associated with recruiting additional talent on the commercial banking or risk management division of the business.

Loan Portfolio

Loans outstanding grew to $2.52 billion at September 30, 2020 compared to $2.14 billion at the same time in 2019. Loan production for the first nine months of 2020 centered mostly on PPP which totaled $348.0 million. Excluding PPP loans, loans outstanding have decreased $10.4 million since December 31, 2019.

The Company ended the third quarter of 2020 with a concentration in hotels totaling $265.5 million. The portfolio, prior to the pandemic, had debt weighted average debt coverage of approximately 147% and weighted average loan to value of approximately 68%. Substantially all of the Company's hotel loans are to national brands and approximately 93% of the portfolio are to limited service hotels, in non-leisure areas with historically lower operating costs. Commenting on the hospitality portfolio, Mr. Zember stated, "Our hospitality book has performed exceptionally well given the current circumstances. For the hotel book, we have seen steady increases in occupancy and room revenues to the point that all but 2.47% of our book can comfortably service interest costs. The pre-COVID loan to value ratio of the hotels asking for another deferral of principal and interest was 55.32%, respectively, which we believe speaks to the strength of this portfolio."

Credit Loss Provision and Asset Quality

The Allowance for Loan Losses (incurred loss model) increased to $25.8 million at September 30, 2020, up substantially from $10.3 million at December 31, 2019. In addition to the allowance, the Company has discounts and marks on acquired loans totaling $6.9 million at the end of the current quarter in 2020 and $9.9 million at the previous year end. As a percentage of loans (excluding PPP), the allowance plus discounts and marks has increased from 0.92% at the end of 2019 to 1.50% at the end of the current quarter in 2020.

During the third quarter, and through October 23, 2020, the Company saw a substantial amount of deferred loans go back to traditional loan terms. As of October 23, 2020, loans on any form of deferral totaled $202.9 million or 8.1% of total loans, compared to $707.8 million and 28.2% at the end of the second quarter of 2020. Additional information relative to COVID-19 deferrals is seen below as of September 30, 2020 with estimates for the end of October, 2020:

Nonperforming assets, excluding portions guaranteed by the SBA, were 0.53% of total assets at September 30, 2020, compared to 0.40% at December 31, 2019. Total non-accrual loans increased to $15.3 million at September 30, 2020 compared to $8.9 million at December 31, 2019 due to COVID-19 related issues.

Deposits

Total deposits increased to $2.22 billion at September 30, 2020 compared to $2.18 billion at the same time in 2019. During the quarter, the Company replaced $58 million of brokered, listing service and higher rate customer CDs with growth in checking, NOW and MMDA balances (core deposits). Since December 31, 2019, the Company has run off $221 million of brokered and listing service accounts and grown core deposits by $277.8 million. The Company is aggressively building sales and incentive cultures focused on growing and managing core deposits, with the primary attention on commercial and consumer checking accounts. Management expects continued improvement in the funding mix over the next several quarters with more material reductions in total funding costs to occur in the last several quarters of 2021.

Stockholders' Equity

Tangible common book value at the end of the third quarter of 2020 was $11.53 per share, an increase of 6.8% since the same time in 2019. Tangible common equity at September 30, 2020 was $280.9 million, or 9.22% of tangible assets. Excluding increases in the Company's tangible assets related to PPP, the Company's tangible common equity to tangible assets is approximately 10.36% at September 30, 2020. Sonabank's capital ratios were especially strong with tier one leverage and total risk based capital ratios estimated at 10.62% and 16.09%, respectively at the end of the third quarter of 2020.
