Credit Quality
|
● |
On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) accounting standard. The transition adjustment of the adoption of CECL included an increase in the allowance for credit losses on loans of $784,000 and an increase in the allowance for credit losses on unfunded loan commitments of $1.2 million, which is recorded in other liabilities. The Company recorded a net decrease to retained earnings of $1.6 million as of January 1, 2023 for the cumulative effect of adopting CECL, which reflects the transition adjustments noted above, net of the applicable deferred tax assets recorded. |
|
● |
The Bank recorded $326,000 in provision for credit losses on loans held for investment, which was partially offset by a reversal of provision for unfunded commitments of $105,000, resulting in a net provision expense of $221,000 for the first six months of 2023 compared to no provision for credit losses during the first six months of 2022. |
|
● |
Non-performing assets were $6.7 million at June 30, 2023 compared to $6.4 million at December 31, 2022 and $2.6 million at June 30, 2022. |
|
● |
Allowance for credit losses to gross loans was 2.04%, 2.00% and 2.18% at June 30, 2023, December 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, respectively. |
