First National Corporation Reports First Quarter 2022 Financial Results

STRASBURG, Va., April 26, 2022 --- First National Corporation (the “Company” or “First National”) (NASDAQ: FXNC), the bank holding company of First Bank (the “Bank”), reported unaudited consolidated net income of $3.7 million, or $0.60 per basic and diluted share, for the first quarter of 2022. This compares to net income of $2.4 million, or $0.50 per basic and diluted share, for the first quarter of 2021, which included merger expenses of $405 thousand, or $320 thousand, net of tax. Merger expenses had a $0.07 per share impact to basic and diluted earnings per share in the first quarter of 2021.

FIRST QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS

Key highlights of the first quarter of 2022 are as follows. Comparisons are to the corresponding period in the prior year unless otherwise stated:

Return on average assets increased to 1.06%, up from 1.00%
Return on average equity increased to 13.40%, up from 11.53%
--- ---
Total assets increased by $389.5 million, or 38%
--- ---
Noninterest-bearing deposits increased $125.5 million, or 43%
--- ---
Loans increased $198.2 million, or 31%
--- ---
Loans, excluding PPP loans, increased $21.3 million, or 11% annualized, since December 31, 2021
--- ---
Net interest income increased $3.0 million, or 40%
--- ---
Wealth management revenue increased $160 thousand, or 25%
--- ---
Service charges on deposits increased $167 thousand, or 38%
--- ---

“We are pleased with loan growth and profitability in the first quarter,” said Scott Harvard, president and chief executive officer of First National. “The Company is seeing benefits from its strategic expansion initiatives last year, including loan growth and noninterest income growth. The Banks wealth management division also contributed to higher profitability for the quarter with revenue that increased 25% over the same period one year ago. Loan demand continues to be steady in spite of rising rates, and our small business customers appear to have weathered the pandemic well and are now more focused on inflation and wage pressures.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income increased $3.0 million, or 40%, to $10.5 million for the first quarter of 2022, compared to the same period of 2021. The increase resulted from a $2.9 million, or 36% increase in total interest and dividend income and a $107 thousand, or 18%, decrease in total interest expense. Net interest income was favorably impacted by a $415.1 million, or 44%, increase in average earning assets, which was partially offset by an 8-basis point decrease in the net interest margin to 3.19% when comparing the periods.

Accretion of PPP income, net of costs, and accretion of discounts on purchased loans, net of premiums, were included in interest and fees on loans. Accretion of PPP income totaled $323 thousand in the first quarter of 2022, compared to $599 thousand for the same period of 2021. Accretion of discounts on purchased loans totaled $367 thousand in the first quarter of 2022. There were no purchased loans in the first quarter of 2021, and as a result, there was no accretion of discounts on purchased loans during the period.


PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

There was no provision for loan losses for the first quarter of 2022. During the quarter, an increase in the general reserve component of the allowance for losses was offset by net recoveries of loans previously charged off and a decrease in the specific reserve component of the allowance for loan losses. Net recoveries totaled $118 thousand for the quarter. There were no specific reserves on impaired loans at March 31, 2022, compared to $55 thousand of specific reserves at December 31, 2021. The allowance for loan losses totaled $5.8 million, or 0.70% of total loans at March 31, 2022, compared to 0.69% of total loans at December 31, 2021. There was no provision for loan losses for the same period of 2021.

ASSET QUALITY

Loans 30 to 89 days past due and accruing totaled $2.1 million, or 0.25% of total loans at March 31, 2022, compared to $906 thousand, or 0.14% of total loans one year ago. Accruing substandard loans decreased to $336 thousand at March 31, 2022, an improvement from $1.3 million one year ago. Nonperforming assets decreased to $3.9 million, or 0.27% of total assets at March 31, 2022, compared to $6.8 million, or 0.66% of total assets at March 31, 2021. Nonperforming assets were comprised of $2.1 million of nonaccrual loans and $1.8 million of other real estate owned. There were $1.5 million of commercial rental properties included in other real estate owned, which were acquired through the merger with The Bank of Fincastle (“Fincastle”) in 2021.

During the fourth quarter of 2020 and during the first half of 2021, the Bank modified terms of certain loans for customers negatively impacted by the pandemic. The modifications lowered borrower’s loan payments with interest only payments for periods ranging between 6 and 24 months. Modified loan balances decreased from $11.5 million at December 31, 2021 to $8.9 million at March 31, 2022. All modified loans were to businesses in the lodging sector, were included in the Bank’s commercial real estate loan portfolio, and were performing under their modified terms at March 31, 2022.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income increased $568 thousand, or 27%, to $2.7 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, compared to the same period of 2021. Wealth management fees increased $160 thousand, or 25%, and was attributable to an increase in assets under management from growth in account values and from an increase in the number of clients served by the wealth management division.  Service charges on deposits increased $167 thousand, or 38%, ATM and check card fees increased $149 thousand, or 25%, income from bank-owned life insurance increased $31 thousand, or 27%, and fees for other customer services increased $51 thousand, or 28%, comparing the same periods. The increases were primarily attributable to the acquisition of Fincastle.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest expense increased $2.0 million, or 30%, to $8.6 million for the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, compared to the same period one year ago. The increase was primarily attributable to a $1.6 million, or 44% increase in salaries and employee benefits, a $125 thousand, or 28%, increase in occupancy expense, a $128 thousand, or 30%, increase in equipment expense, and a $227 thousand, or 38%, increase in other operating expense.  These increases were partially offset by a $404 thousand decrease in legal and professional fees. The increases were primarily attributable to the increase in the number of employees, branch offices and customers that resulted from the acquisition of Fincastle and the acquisition of the loan portfolio, branch assets and addition of the employees from SmartBank. Merger expenses totaled $20 thousand and $405 thousand for the three-month periods ending March 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The decrease in legal and professional fees was primarily attributable to merger related costs in the first quarter of 2021.


BALANCE SHEET

Total assets of First National increased $389.5 million, or 38%, to $1.4 billion at March 31, 2022, compared to $1.0 billion at March 31, 2021. Interest-bearing deposits in banks decreased $34.5 million, or 21%, while total securities increased $193.6 million, or 111%, and loans increased $198.2 million, or 31%. Loans, excluding Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans, increased $262.0 million, or 46%. PPP loans decreased by $63.8 million over the last twelve months and totaled $2.5 million at March 31, 2022.

Total liabilities increased $368.9 million, or 39%, to $1.3 billion at March 31, 2022, compared to $942.2 million one year ago. The increase in total liabilities was primarily attributable to significant growth in deposits. Total deposits increased $376.8 million, or 41%, to $1.3 billion. Noninterest-bearing demand deposits increased $125.5 million, or 43%, savings and interest-bearing demand deposits increased $208.0 million, or 40%, and time deposits increased $43.3 million, or 44%. Subordinated debt decreased to $5.0 million at March 31, 2022, compared to $10.0 million one year ago, from the redemption of subordinated debt with an interest rate of 6.75%.

Shareholders’ equity increased $20.6 million, or 24%, to $106.6 million at March 31, 2022, compared to one year ago, from an $8.7 million increase in retained earnings and a $27.8 million combined increase in common stock and surplus. The increase in common stock and surplus was primarily attributable to the Company’s acquisition of Fincastle on July 1, 2021. These increases were partially offset by $15.9 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income, which resulted from a change in market interest rates that impacted securities available for sale reported at fair value. The Bank was considered well-capitalized at March 31, 2022.

The acquisition of Fincastle had a significant impact on balance sheet growth. On July 1, 2021, the acquisition date, Fincastle had total assets of $267.9 million, interest-bearing deposits in banks of $43.5 million, total securities of $12.0 million, loans, net of the allowance for loan losses, of $191.5 million, and total deposits of $236.3 million.

The acquisition of the SmartBank loan portfolio impacted the composition of the balance sheet. On September 30, 2021, the acquisition date, SmartBank’s Richmond-area branch loan portfolio totaled $82.6 million. The Bank funded the acquisition of the loan portfolio with cash, which decreased interest-bearing deposits in banks during the third quarter.

ACQUISITION OF THE BANK OF FINCASTLE

On July 1, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of The Bank of Fincastle for an aggregate purchase price of $33.8 million of cash and stock (the “Merger”). Fincastle was merged with and into First Bank. The former Fincastle branches operated as The Bank of Fincastle, a division of First Bank, until their systems were converted on October 16, 2021. The Company incurred merger expenses of $20 thousand and $405 thousand for the three-month periods ending March 31, 2022, and 2021, respectively. The Company does not expect to incur additional merger expenses in future periods.

ACQUISITION OF THE SMARTBANK LOAN PORTFOLIO

On September 30, 2021, the Bank acquired $82.6 million of loans and certain branch assets from SmartBank related to their Richmond area branch, located in Glen Allen, Virginia.  Additionally, an experienced team of bankers based out of the SmartBank location transitioned to become employees of First Bank in the fourth quarter of 2021. First Bank did not assume any deposit liabilities from SmartBank in connection with the transaction and SmartBank closed their branch operation on December 31, 2021. The Bank continued to operate its loan production office from the former branch location.


SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATIONS PPP

The Bank participated as a lender in the U.S. Small Business Administration’s (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program to support local small businesses and non-profit organizations by providing forgivable loans. The Bank accretes loan fees received from the SBA, net of loan origination costs, into income evenly over the life of the loans through interest and fees on loans. PPP loans totaled $2.5 million at March 31, 2022, with $52 thousand scheduled to mature in the second and third quarters of 2022, and $2.4 million scheduled to mature in the first and second quarters of 2026.

Non-GAAP measures:
Tax benefit realized on non-taxable interest income – loans $ 5 $ 8 $ 8 $ 8 $ 8

Total tax benefit realized on non-taxable interest income $ 86 $ 88 $ 72 $ 65 $ 56

^(1)^ The efficiency ratio is computed by dividing noninterest expense excluding other real estate owned income/expense, amortization of intangibles, gains and losses on disposal of premises and equipment, and merger related expenses by the sum of net interest income on a tax-equivalent basis and noninterest income, excluding gains and losses on sales of securities.  Tax-equivalent net interest income is calculated by adding the tax benefit realized from interest income that is nontaxable to total interest income then subtracting total interest expense. The tax rate utilized in calculating the tax benefit is 21%. See the tables above for tax-equivalent net interest income and reconciliations of net interest income to tax-equivalent net interest income.  The efficiency ratio is a non-GAAP financial measure that management believes provides investors with important information regarding operational efficiency.  Such information is not prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and should not be construed as such.  Management believes; however, such financial information is meaningful to the reader in understanding operational performance, but cautions that such information not be viewed as a substitute for GAAP.

^(2)^ All capital ratios reported are for First Bank.

(3) Nonperforming assets are comprised of nonaccrual loans and other real estate owned, net of selling costs.

(4) Tangible book value is calculated by subtracting goodwill and other intangibles from total shareholders' equity.
