Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. Reports Results for the Three and Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

News provided by

Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc.


Poughkeepsie, New York, October 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ Rhinebeck Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: RBKB), the holding company of Rhinebeck Bank (the “Bank”), reported net income for the three months ended September 30, 2023 of $1.2 million ($0.12 per basic and $0.11 per diluted share), which was $871,000, or 41.3%, less than the comparable prior year period. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 of $3.5 million ($0.32 per basic and diluted share), was $2.7 million, or 44.0%, less than the same period last year.

The decrease in net income was primarily due to a decrease in net interest income and an increase in the provision for credit losses. The Company’s return on average assets and return on average equity were 0.37% and 4.53% for the third quarter of 2023, respectively, as compared to 0.64% and 7.29% for the third quarter of 2022, respectively. The Company’s return on average assets and return on average equity were 0.35% and 4.23% for the first nine months of 2023, respectively, as compared to 0.64% and 7.00% for the first nine months of 2022, respectively.

President and Chief Executive Officer Michael J. Quinn said, “So far in 2023 our year-to-date key metrics are showing improvement. Our return on average assets, return on average equity and net interest margin, continue to climb and there has been an improvement in our efficiency ratio as our operating expenses have decreased. We continue to focus on improving results through the beneficial pricing of assets and liabilities, as well as reducing operational costs. Additionally, our loan portfolios continue to perform at satisfactory levels and we remain well capitalized.”

Income Statement Analysis

Net interest income decreased $1.4 million, or 13.0%, to $9.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, from $11.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Year-to-date net interest income decreased $3.3 million, or 10.2%, to $28.8 million compared to $32.1 million for the prior year’s nine-month period. The decreases on both a quarterly and year-to-date basis were primarily due to higher costs and average balances of deposits and borrowings, partially offset by higher average interest-earning asset balances and yields on those interest earning assets. The increased yield on interest-earning assets and the increased costs of our interest-bearing liabilities were mostly due to the rising interest rate environment over the past year.

For the three months ended September 30, 2023, the average balance of interest-earning assets grew by $22.2 million, or 1.8%, to $1.24 billion and the average yield improved by 88 basis points to 4.96%, when compared to the three months ended September 30, 2022. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased by $78.9 million, or 9.2%, and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased by 182 basis points to 2.50%.  The overall interest rate spread decreased by 94 basis points to 2.46% for the three months ended September 30, 2023.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2023, the average balance of interest-earning assets grew by $41.5 million, or 3.4%, to $1.25 billion and the average yield improved by 92 basis points to 4.83%, when compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2022. The average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased by $90.0 million, or 10.7%, and the cost of interest-bearing liabilities increased by 182 basis points to 2.33%.  The overall interest rate spread decreased by 90 basis points to 2.50% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023.

​ ​

The provision for credit losses on loans increased by $365,000, from $545,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 to $910,000 for the current quarter. The provision for credit losses on loans increased $360,000, from $1.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to $1.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The increase to the provision for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 was primarily attributable to an increase in loan balances and increased charge-offs.

Net charge-offs increased $163,000 from $222,000 for the third quarter of 2022 to net charge-offs of $385,000 for the third quarter of 2023. Net charge-offs increased $1.2 million from $179,000 for the first nine months of 2022 to $1.4 million for the first nine months of 2023. Year-to-date, the increase was primarily due to a $710,000 charge-off of one commercial loan in the second quarter of 2023 and increased charge-offs in indirect automobile loans of $794,000. The percentage of overdue account balances to total loans decreased to 1.91% as of September 30, 2023 from 2.29% as of December 31, 2022, while non-performing assets increased $404,000, or 9.1%, to $4.8 million at September 30, 2023.

Non-interest income totaled $1.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, an increase of $257,000, or 18.5%, from the comparable period in the prior year, due primarily to a $218,000 gain on life insurance and an increase in investment advisory income.  The increase was partially offset by a decrease in the net gain on sales of mortgage loans of $117,000 as activity decreased due to fewer originations in the increasing interest rate environment and a strategic decision to hold new production in our portfolio instead of selling these loans.

Non-interest income totaled $4.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023, a decrease of $223,000, or 4.8%, from the comparable period in the prior year, due primarily to a decrease in the net gain on sales of mortgage loans as activity decreased due to fewer originations in the increasing interest rate environment and a strategic decision to hold new production in our portfolio instead of selling these loans. Gain on sales of mortgage loans decreased $748,000, or 89.0%, compared to the prior year period as we sold $3.7 million of residential mortgage loans in the first nine months of 2023 as compared to $23.3 million in the first nine months of 2022. Investment advisory income decreased $68,000, or 7.3%, primarily the result of a challenging investment market and economic conditions. These decreases were partially offset by a $218,000 gain on life insurance, the prior year period net realized loss on the sale of securities of $170,000 and a $118,000 increase in other income as the income from mortgage servicing rights increased.

For the third quarter of 2023, non-interest expense totaled $8.8 million, a decrease of $424,000, or 4.6%, over the comparable 2022 period. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in salaries and benefits of $684,000, or 12.8%, as the number of employees decreased. Occupancy expense decreased $48,000, or 4.4%, due to a branch closure at the end of 2022. These decreases were partially offset by increased professional fees of $71,000 and an increase in other non-interest expenses of $164,000.

For the first nine months of 2023, non-interest expense totaled $27.3 million, a decrease of $522,000, or 1.9%, over the comparable 2022 period. The decrease was primarily due to a decrease in salaries and benefits of $1.5 million as the number of employees decreased when the Company made the difficult decision to layoff approximately 5% of its workforce in the first quarter of 2023, a decrease in occupancy expense of $179,000 due to the closure of our Monroe branch at the end of 2022 and a decrease in marketing fees of $80,000 due to decreased advertising. These decreases were partially offset by the growth in other non-interest expense of $713,000, or 17.0%, primarily due to a decrease in deferred loan commitments and inflationary pressures on our service contracts, an increase in FDIC deposit insurance assessments of $322,000, or 53.5%, and an increase in professional fees of $180,000. ​

Balance Sheet Analysis

Total assets decreased $20.5 million, or 1.5%, to $1.315 billion at September 30, 2023 from $1.336 billion at December 31, 2022. Available for sale securities decreased $29.4 million, or 13.1%, primarily due to paydowns, calls and maturities of $25.5 million and an increase in the unrealized loss of $3.9 million. Cash and cash equivalents decreased $4.6 million, or 14.7% primarily due to a decrease in deposits held at the Federal Home Loan Bank of New York and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York as both cash and paydowns on securities were used to help fund deposit outflows. Loans receivable increased $9.4 million, as commercial real estate loans increased $47.5 million or 12.8% and residential real estate loans increased $16.3 million, while indirect automobile loans decreased $50.6 million, or 11.1%. The increase in commercial real estate loans was primarily due to the closing of two large loans, secured by an auto dealership and a retail shopping center. The increase in residential real estate loans reflected the strategic decision to hold new production in our portfolio instead of selling these loans. The decrease in our indirect automobile portfolio was due to a strategic decision to decrease that loan portfolio as a percentage of our balance sheet. Federal Home Loan Bank Stock increased $1.4 million covering the requirement for additional borrowings and other assets increased $2.9 million, or 16.2%, as the fair value of our derivatives increased.

Past due loans decreased $3.6 million, or 15.7%, between December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023, finishing at $19.1 million, or 1.91%, of total loans, down from $22.7 million, or 2.29%, of total loans at year-end 2022. Our allowance for credit losses was 0.85% of total loans and 175.99% of non-performing loans at September 30, 2023 as compared to 0.80% of total loans and 179.54% of non-performing loans at December 31, 2022.

Total liabilities decreased $19.1 million, or 1.6%, to $1.209 billion at September 30, 2023 from $1.228 billion at December 31, 2022 due to a decrease in deposits, offset by an increase in borrowings. Deposits decreased $47.6 million, or 4.2%. Interest bearing deposits decreased $41.0 million, or 4.8%, while non-interest bearing deposits decreased $6.7 million, or 2.4%, as some depositors withdrew funds in reaction to the highly publicized bank failures in the first quarter of 2023 and as competition for deposits increased. Advances from the Federal Home Loan Bank increased $30.0 million, or 51.9%. At September 30, 2023, uninsured deposits represented approximately 32% of the Bank’s total deposits.

Stockholders' equity decreased $1.5 million, or 1.4%, to $106.7 million at September 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to a $3.4 million increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss primarily reflecting valuation changes in our available-for-sale securities portfolio due to current financial market conditions, the repurchase of 200,000 shares of the Company’s stock, totaling $1.4 million, and a reduction in retained earnings of $633,000 due to the adoption of the current expected credit loss standard on January 1, 2023. These decreases were partially offset by our net income for the first nine months of the year of $3.5 million. The Company's ratio of average equity to average assets was 8.19% for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 8.91% for the year ended December 31, 2022. ​
