Results of Operations
Net Income
Net income was $15.7 million for the first quarter of 2023, an increase of $5.5 million, or 54.5%, from $10.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. This increase was due to an increase in noninterest income of $4.2 million, a decrease in noninterest expense of $1.7 million and a decrease in income tax expense of $3.5 million, offset by a decrease in net interest income of $2.7 million and an increase in provision for credit losses of $1.2 million. Net income decreased by $3.7 million, or 19.0%, in the first quarter of 2023 compared to net income of $19.4 million for the first quarter of 2022. This decrease was due to a decrease in net interest income of $4.4 million and a decrease in noninterest income of $1.6 million, offset by a decrease in noninterest expense of $1.5 million and a decrease in provision for income taxes of $757,000.
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Interest income totaled $46.0 million for the first quarter of 2023, an increase of $2.0 million, or 4.6%, from the previous quarter, primarily due to a 35 basis points increase in the loan yield coupled with a $34.0 million increase in average loan balances. As compared to the first quarter of 2022, interest income for the first 1
quarter of 2023 increased by $14.0 million, or 43.9%, primarily due to an increase in average loan balances of $498.0 million coupled with an 85 basis points increase in the loan yield.
Interest expense totaled $19.7 million for the first quarter of 2023, an increase of $4.7 million, or 31.6%, from the previous quarter, primarily due to a 87 basis points increase in deposit costs and a 48 basis points increase in borrowing costs coupled with a $38.0 million increase in average interest-bearing deposits. As compared to the first quarter of 2022, interest expense for the first quarter of 2023 increased by $18.4 million, or 1,417.8%, due to a 321 basis points increase in deposit costs and a 223 basis points increase in borrowing costs coupled with a $308.5 million increase in average interest-bearing deposits.
The net interest margin for the first quarter of 2023 was 3.30% compared to 3.58% for the previous quarter, a decrease of 28 basis points. The yield on average interest-earning assets for the first quarter of 2023 increased by 34 basis points to 5.77% from 5.43% for the previous quarter, while the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities for the first quarter of 2023 increased by 81 basis points to 3.30% from 2.49% for the previous quarter. Average earning assets increased by $19.6 million from the previous quarter, due to an increase in average loans of $34.0 million offset by a decrease in average total investments of $14.4 million. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $38.1 million from the previous quarter as average interest-bearing deposits increased by $38.0 million while average borrowings remained flat.
As compared to the same period in 2022, the net interest margin for the first quarter of 2023 decreased by 86 basis points to 3.30% from 4.16%, primarily due to a 306 basis point increase in the cost of average interest-bearing liabilities of $2.43 billion, offset by a 143 basis point increase in the yield on average interest-earning assets of $3.23 billion. Average earning assets for the first quarter of 2023 increased by $240.0 million from the first quarter of 2022, primarily due to a $498.0 million increase in average loans, offset by a $254.3 million decrease in average interest-earning cash accounts. Average interest-bearing liabilities for the first quarter of 2023 increased by $243.3 million from the first quarter of 2022, driven by an increase in average interest-bearing deposits of $308.5 million, offset by a decrease in average borrowings of $65.2 million.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income for the first quarter of 2023 was $6.0 million, an increase of $4.2 million, or 235.3%, from the fourth quarter of 2022, primarily due to higher gains on sale of Small Business Administration (“SBA”) loans, SBA servicing income and other income, partially offset by lower mortgage loan fees. SBA loan sales totaled $36.5 million during the first quarter of 2023 compared to no loan sales during the fourth quarter of 2022. Mortgage loan originations totaled $43.3 million during the first quarter 2023 compared to $88.0 million during the fourth quarter of 2022. During the first quarter of 2023, we recorded a $708,000 fair value adjustment gain on our SBA servicing asset which had a $0.02 per share impact on our diluted earnings per share for the quarter.
Compared to the same period in 2022, noninterest income for the first quarter of 2023 decreased by $1.6 million, or 21.4%, primarily due to lower mortgage loan fees as a result of lower volume and lower gains on sale of mortgage loans as no mortgage loans were sold during the first quarter of 2023.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense for the first quarter of 2023 totaled $10.7 million, a decrease of $1.7 million, or 13.7%, from $12.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2022. This decrease was primarily attributable to a decrease in salaries and employee benefits partially due to lower commissions from lower loan volume, as well as lower loan related expenses and FDIC deposit insurance premiums. Compared to the first quarter of 2022, noninterest 2
expense during the first quarter of 2023 decreased by $1.5 million, or 12.3%, primarily due to lower salaries and employee benefits, FDIC deposit insurance premiums and fair value losses on our equity securities.
The Company’s efficiency ratio was 33.1 % for the first quarter of 2023 compared to 40.3% and 31.8% for the fourth quarter of 2022 and first quarter of 2022, respectively.
Income Tax Expense
The Company’s effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2023 was 27.1%, compared to 47.9% for the fourth quarter of 2022 and 25.3% for the first quarter of 2022. The significant elevated effective tax rate during the fourth quarter of 2022 was due to the re-allocation of state income tax apportionment schedules for prior year’s tax returns, as well as corrections made for the treatments of prior year’s state tax credits.
Balance Sheet
Total Assets
Total assets were $3.42 billion at March 31, 2023, a decrease of $8.2 million, or 0.2%, from $3.43 billion at December 31, 2022, and an increase of $276.7 million, or 8.8%, from $3.14 billion at March 31, 2022. The $8.2 million decrease in total assets at March 31, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022 was primarily due to decreases in loans of $43.7 million, federal funds sold of $20.6 million, other real estate owned of $3.6 million and other assets of $2.1 million, partially offset by an increase in cash and due from banks of $65.2 million. The $276.7 million increase in total assets at March 31, 2023 compared to March 31, 2022 was primarily due to increases in loans of $499.7 million and other assets of $24.4 million, partially offset by a $202.8 million decrease in cash and due from banks.
Our investment securities portfolio made up only 0.87% of our total assets at March 31, 2023 compared to 0.86% and 1.11% at December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022, respectively.

The decrease in loans at March 31, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022 was primarily due to a $21.0 million decrease in residential mortgage loans, a $17.3 million decrease in commercial real estate loans and a $7.0 million decrease in commercial and industrial loans, offset by a $1.4 million increase in construction and development loans. There were no loans classified as held for sale at March 31, 2023, December 31, 2022 or March 31, 2022.

Total deposits were $2.64 billion at March 31, 2023, a decrease of $22.7 million, or 0.9%, compared to total deposits of $2.67 billion at December 31, 2022, and an increase of $262.0 million, or 11.0%, compared to total deposits of $2.38 billion at March 31, 2022. The decrease in total deposits at March 31, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022 was due to a $82.5 million decrease in money market accounts, a $34.7 million decrease in noninterest-bearing deposits and a $3.1 million decrease in savings accounts, offset by a $93.2 million increase in time deposits and a $4.4 million increase interest-bearing demand deposits.

Noninterest-bearing deposits constituted 21.8% of total deposits at March 31, 2023, compared to 22.9% at December 31, 2022 and 25.8% at March 31, 2022. Interest-bearing deposits were $2.07 billion at March 31, 2023, compared to $2.05 billion at December 31, 2022 and $1.77 billion at March 31, 2022. Interest-bearing deposits constituted 78.2% of total deposits at March 31, 2023, compared to 77.1% at December 31, 2022 and 74.2% at March 31, 2022.
Uninsured deposits were 31.9% of total deposits at March 31, 2023, compared to 32.5% and 27.4% at December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022, respectively. As of March 31, 2023, we had $1.13 billion of available borrowing capacity at the Federal Home Loan Bank ($657.0 million), Federal Reserve Discount Window ($429.0 million) and various other financial institutions (fed fund lines totaling $47.5 million).
Asset Quality
On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted ASC 326, which provides for an expected credit loss model, referred to as the "Current Expected Credit Loss" ("CECL") model. The adoption of this standard resulted in an increase to the allowance for loan losses of $5.1 million and the creation of an allowance for unfunded commitments of $239,000. These one-time cumulative adjustments resulted in a $3.9 million tax-effected decrease to retained earnings.
The Company recorded no provision for credit losses during the first quarter of 2023, compared to a $1.2 million credit provision recorded during the fourth quarter of 2022 and a $104,000 provision expense recorded during the first quarter of 2022. Annualized net recoveries to average loans for the first quarter of 2023 was 0.00%, compared to a net recovery of 0.01% for the fourth quarter of 2022 and net charge-offs of 0.06% for the first quarter of 2022.
Nonperforming assets totaled $19.5 million, or 0.57% of total assets, at March 31, 2023, a decrease of $5.0 million from $24.5 million, or 0.71% of total assets, at December 31, 2022, and an increase of $3.5 million from $16.0 million, or 0.51% of total assets, at March 31, 2022. The decrease in nonperforming assets at March 31, 2023 compared to December 31, 2022 was primarily due to a $1.0 million decrease in nonaccrual loans and a $3.6 million decrease in other real estate owned.
Allowance for credit losses as a percentage of total loans was 0.63% at March 31, 2023, compared to 0.45% at December 31, 2022 and 0.66% at March 31, 2022. Allowance for credit losses as a percentage of nonperforming loans was 101.22% at March 31, 2023, compared to 68.88% and 134.39% at December 31, 2022 and March 31, 2022, respectively.

Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in this press release regarding future events and our expectations and beliefs about our future financial performance and financial condition, as well as trends in our business and markets, constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of, and subject to the protections of, Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Forward-looking statements are not historical in nature and may be identified by references to a future period or periods by the use of the words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “estimate,” “project,” “outlook,” or words of similar meaning, or future or conditional verbs such as “will,” “would,” “should,” “could,” or “may.” The forward-looking statements in this press release should not be relied on because they are based on current information and on assumptions that we make about future events and circumstances that are subject to a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties that are often difficult to predict and beyond our control. As a result of those risks and uncertainties, and other factors, our actual financial results in the future could differ, possibly materially, from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this press release and could cause us to make changes to our future plans. Factors that might cause such differences include, but are not limited to: the impact of current and future economic conditions, particularly those affecting the financial services industry, including the effects of declines in the real estate market, high unemployment rates, inflationary pressures, elevated interest rates and slowdowns in economic growth, as well as the financial stress on borrowers as a result of the foregoing; potential impacts of the recent adverse developments in the banking industry highlighted by high-profile bank failures, including impacts on customer confidence, deposit outflows, liquidity and the regulatory response thereto; risks arising from media coverage of the banking industry; risks arising from perceived instability in the banking sector; changes in the interest rate environment, including changes to the federal funds rate; changes in prices, values and sales volumes of residential and commercial real estate; developments in our mortgage banking business, including loan modifications, general demand, and the effects of judicial or regulatory requirements or guidance; competition in our markets that may result in increased funding costs or reduced earning assets yields, thus reducing margins and net interest income; interest rate fluctuations, which could have an adverse effect on the Company’s profitability; legislation or regulatory changes which could adversely affect the ability of the consolidated Company to conduct business combinations or new operations; changes in tax laws; significant turbulence or a disruption in the capital or financial markets and the effect of a fall in stock market prices on our investment securities; the effects of war or other conflicts including the impacts related to or resulting from Russia’s military action in Ukraine; and adverse results from current or future litigation, regulatory examinations or other legal and/or regulatory actions, including as a result of the Company’s participation in and execution of government programs. Therefore, the Company can give no assurance that the results contemplated in the forward-looking statements will be realized. Additional information regarding these and other risks and uncertainties to which our business and future financial performance are subject is contained in the sections titled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” and “Risk Factors” in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q on file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and in other documents that we file with the SEC from time to time, which are available on the SEC’s website, http://www.sec.gov. In addition, our actual financial results in the future may differ from those currently expected due to additional risks and uncertainties of which we are not currently aware or which we do not 5
currently view as, but in the future may become, material to our business or operating results. Due to these and other possible uncertainties and risks, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this press release or to make predictions based solely on historical financial performance. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made, and we do not undertake any obligation to update or review any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law. All forward-looking statements, express or implied, included in this press release are qualified in their entirety by this cautionary statement.
