“The fourth quarter completed a record year of earnings for our Company.

Klein, Chairman, President, and CEO of SB Financial. “We had significant contributions from our lending teams in the PPP initiative and our Residential Mortgage group originated record volume during 2020. We were especially pleased to have returned over $10 million to our shareholders in the form of dividends and buybacks this past year and to have increased shareholder book value by nearly 11 percent.”

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Consolidated Revenue
Total operating revenue, consisting of net interest income and noninterest income, was up 24.7 percent from the fourth quarter of 2019 and for the year was up 24.9 percent.
| ● | Net interest income was up 7.6 percent from the year-ago quarter, and remained flat to the linked quarter. |
| ● | Net interest margin on a fully taxable equivalent basis (FTE) was down from the year-ago quarter by 49 basis points and down 20 basis points from the linked quarter due to higher transactional cash balances, slower PPP forgiveness realization and lower mortgage volume. Loan yields are down 60 bps with the decline in the rate curve. |
| ● | Noninterest income was up 49.4 percent year over year but down 14.5 percent from the linked quarter, due to servicing rights impairment and lower mortgage volume. |
Mortgage Loan Business
Mortgage loan originations for the fourth quarter of 2020 were $169.0 million, up $31.5 million, or 22.9 percent, from the year-ago quarter. Total sales of originated loans were $143.2 million, up $15.7 million, or 12.3 percent. For the full year, SB Financial had total volume of $694.2 million, of which $290.9 million (42 percent) was new purchase/construction lending, $217.0 million (31 percent) was internal refinance, and the remaining $186.3 million (27 percent) was new customer refinance volume.
Net mortgage banking revenue, consisting of gains on the sale of mortgage loans and net loan servicing fees, was $6.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to $3.4 million for the year-ago quarter. The mortgage servicing valuation adjustment for the fourth quarter of 2020 was a negative $0.6 million, compared to a positive adjustment of $0.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2019. For the year, the impairment on servicing rights was $3.6 million, compared to $1.1 million for the prior year. The aggregate servicing valuation impairment ended the quarter at $4.9 million. The servicing portfolio at December 31, 2020, was $1.3 billion up $100.6 million or 8.4 percent, from $1.2 billion at December 31, 2019. Normal amortization is up 124 percent from the prior year due to higher refinance activity.
Mr. Klein noted, “Our mortgage machine continued at a brisk pace in the quarter with nearly $170 million in volume and for the year we were just a few loans shy of $700 million. Our sales and processing teams set a new standard of excellence with over 3,100 units closed during the year, and the gain on sale yields continued at high levels in the quarter allowing us to overcome the effects of the servicing rights impairment. We can add to book value in the future with the potential realization of our $4.9 million in valuation impairment.”

Noninterest Income and Noninterest Expense
SB Financial’s noninterest income includes revenue from a diverse group of services, such as wealth management, deposit fees, residential loan sales and the sale of Small Business Administration (SBA) and U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) loans. Wealth management assets under the Company’s care were $558.4 million as of December 31, 2020, up $50.7 million, or 10.0 percent, compared to the prior year. For the fourth quarter of 2020, noninterest income as a percentage of total operating revenue was 49.0 percent. Reflective of the robust mortgage market, SB Financial’s Title Agency provided revenue in the quarter of $0.5 million, up 32.8 percent from the prior year.
For the fourth quarter of 2020, noninterest expense of $10.7 million was up $0.5 million year over year or 5.0 percent reflecting a 4.9 times positive operating leverage. On a full year basis, noninterest expense of $43.1 million is up $5.7 million or 15.2 percent. Operating leverage for the year was a positive 1.6 times, however when adjusted for the Edon merger costs, operating leverage improves to 2.1 times.
Mr. Klein stated, “We continued to see the positive effects to net income this quarter from the resources we have allocated to our revenue lines. Our commitment to technology, hedging and geographic expansion continued to pay dividends as our revenue growth exceeded expense growth by over two times and we continue to realize significant benefits from our commitment to the mortgage business line for each of our stakeholders.”

Balance Sheet
Total assets as of December 31, 2020, were $1.26 billion, up $219.3 million, or 21.1 percent, from the year ago quarter due to the impact of the Edon acquisition and the PPP activity. Total equity as of December 31, 2020, was $142.9 million, up 5.0 percent from a year ago, and comprised 11.4 percent of total assets.
Total loans held for investment were $872.7 million at December 31, 2020, up $47.2 million, or 5.7 percent, from December 31, 2019. Commercial loans were up $52.2 million, or 34.6 percent, commercial real estate up $1.0 million or 0.3 percent and agricultural loans increasing $4.3 million, or 8.3 percent. Absent the effects of the Edon acquisition and PPP loans, loan balances were down $44.7 million from the year ago quarter.
The investment portfolio of $154.7 million, including shares in the Federal Reserve Bank and Federal Home Loan Bank, represented 12.3 percent of assets at December 31, 2020, and was up 46.5 percent from the year-ago period. Deposit balances of $1.05 billion at December 31, 2020, increased by $213.9 million, or 25.5 percent, since December 31, 2019. Growth from the prior year included $144.1 million in checking and $69.8 million in savings and time deposit balances.
Mr. Klein continued, “We allocated more to our loan loss allowance in the quarter despite what we see as relatively stable asset quality. We continue to prepare for potential COVID impacts to our clients and other credit unknowns. For the year, we set aside $4.5 million in provision expense compared to credit losses of $0.7 million. We have been able to offset the provision expense with our PPP revenue and the pandemic related expense reductions we realized during the year. Adjusting for our PPP balances, our reserve level ended the year at $12.6 million, or 1.56 percent of loans, compared to the $8.8 million and 1.06 percent at the end of the prior year.”

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release contains financial information determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Non-GAAP financial measures, specifically pre-tax, pre-provision income, tangible common equity, tangible assets, tangible book value per common share, tangible common equity to tangible assets, return on average tangible common equity, total interest income – FTE, net interest income – FTE and net interest margin – FTE are used by the Company’s management to measure the strength of its capital and analyze profitability, including its ability to generate earnings on tangible capital invested by its shareholders. In addition, the Company excludes the non-GAAP items of OMSR impairment and merger related costs from net income to report an adjusted net income level. Although management believes these non-GAAP measures are useful to investors by providing a greater understanding of its business, they should not be considered a substitute for financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP performance measures that may be presented by other companies.
