Curtis Griffith, South Plains’ Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Looking back on 2021, we believe our team delivered another year of strong financial results highlighted by 9.7% organic loan growth, year over year, which exceeded our goal of mid-single digit growth. Strength in our local Texas markets combined with the successful execution of our plan to grow our lending team contributed to these results. Importantly, we are approximately halfway to our goal of adding 20 new lenders to our 60-lender team and remain pleased with the quality of bankers that we continue to recruit and hire. This provides us with confidence in our ability to maintain mid to high single-digit loan growth in 2022 as we work to deploy our excess liquidity into attractive yielding organic loans. As we unlock the latent earnings power on our balance sheet, we believe that we will begin to offset the expected decline in our mortgage banking revenues, as we work to deliver sustained earnings and book value growth. That said, we will remain disciplined on credit quality as we grow the Company and remain very pleased with the performance of our enterprise risk management system, which has enabled our team to effectively manage the credit of our loan portfolio through the pandemic.”
Results of Operations, Quarter Ended December 31, 2021
Net Interest Income
Net interest income was $31.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $31.2 million for the third quarter of 2021 and $30.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. Net interest margin, calculated on a tax-equivalent basis, was 3.50% for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to 3.58% for the third quarter of 2021 and 3.64% for the fourth quarter of 2020. The average yield on loans was 4.90% for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to 4.99% for the third quarter of 2021 and 5.10% for the fourth quarter of 2020. The average cost of deposits was 23 basis points for the fourth quarter of 2021, representing a two basis point decrease from the third quarter of 2021 and an 8 basis point decrease from the fourth quarter of 2020.
Interest income was $34.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $34.4 million for the third quarter of 2021 and $34.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. Interest income increased $162 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2021 from the third quarter of 2021 due primarily to an increase of $264 thousand in loan interest income as a result of the growth of $66.1 million in average loans outstanding, partially offset by a decrease of 9 basis points in the yield on loans, during the fourth quarter of 2021. Further, there was approximately four basis points of yield from several large loan payoffs during the fourth quarter of 2021. In the fourth quarter of 2021, interest and fees on Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans declined $729 thousand compared to the third quarter of 2021, as the average balance of PPP loans outstanding decreased $38.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2021 due to PPP loan forgiveness payments received from the SBA during the quarter. Interest income increased $616 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to the fourth quarter of 2020, mainly as a result that average loans outstanding were $165.8 million higher, partially offset by a reduction of 20 basis points in the related yield and a decrease of $1.3 million in PPP-related interest and fees in the fourth quarter of 2021. During the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company recognized $1.0 million in deferred PPP-related SBA fees. At December 31, 2021, the Company had $1.9 million of deferred PPP fees that have not been accreted to income, the majority of which are expected to be recognized as PPP loans continue to be forgiven by the SBA over the next several quarters.
Interest expense was $3.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $3.3 million for the third quarter of 2021 and $3.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. Interest expense declined 3.3% compared to the third quarter of 2021 as a result of a reduction in interest rates on interest-bearing deposits, partially offset by a higher average balance of these deposits during the quarter. Interest expense decreased $468 thousand compared to the fourth quarter of 2020, with a reduction of 10 basis points in interest rates on interest-bearing deposits partially offset by an increase of $157.1 million in average interest-bearing deposits.
Noninterest Income and Noninterest Expense
Noninterest income was $22.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $25.8 million for the third quarter of 2021 and $26.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. The decline from the third quarter of 2021 was primarily due to a decrease of $2.4 million in mortgage banking activities revenue and the seasonal decrease of $1.6 million in income from insurance activities. The decrease in mortgage banking revenues was mainly the result of a reduction of $60.1 million in mortgage loan originations. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in bank card services and interchange fees of $434 thousand during the fourth quarter of 2021, primarily from receiving an incentive bonus related to volume on the Company’s debit card transactions. Additionally, there was a gain on sale of real estate of $579 thousand in the fourth quarter of 2021 resulting from the sale of land that was held for future expansion. The decrease in noninterest income for the fourth quarter of 2021 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2020 was primarily due to a decline of $4.5 million in mortgage banking activities revenue as a result of a reduction of $143.6 million in mortgage loan originations. This decrease was partially offset by the increases in bank card services and interchange fees and gain on sale as noted above.
Noninterest expense was $36.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to $38.1 million for the third quarter of 2021 and $36.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2020. The decline from the third quarter of 2021 was primarily the result of a decrease of $2.6 million in personnel expense due to the seasonal decline of $1.1 million in commissions expense on insurance activities and a reduction of $854 thousand in mortgage commissions related to the decline in mortgage loan originations. Partially offsetting these declines was an $881 thousand increase in professional services from the third quarter of 2021. This increase primarily relates to $386 thousand invested in planning the Company’s transition of computing and data storage to the cloud as well as further development of the new customer lead generation initiative and an increase of $274,000 in legal expense. The decrease in noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2021 as compared to the fourth quarter of 2020 was primarily driven by a $1.6 million decrease in personnel expense as mortgage commissions were $2.1 million lower, based on the reduction in mortgage loan originations, partially offset by personnel costs reflective of the Company’s stated initiative of growing its loan officer capacity. Also, professional services expense increased $657 thousand primarily as noted above.
Loan Portfolio and Composition
Loans held for investment were $2.44 billion as of December 31, 2021, compared to $2.43 billion as of September 30, 2021 and $2.22 billion as of December 31, 2020. The $8.5 million, or 0.4%, increase during the fourth quarter of 2021 as compared to the third quarter of 2021 was primarily the result of organic net loan growth of $30.5 million, partially offset by a decrease due to SBA forgiveness and repayments of $22.0 million in PPP loans during the fourth quarter of 2021. The organic loan growth remained relationship-focused and occurred in a majority of loan segments, with the largest volume growth in commercial land development loans, commercial retail loans, and direct energy loans. Additionally, there was a $16.5 million reduction in hotel loans, primarily from the early payoff of two credits, and a $10.3 million payoff of a classified commercial credit during the fourth quarter of 2021. As of December 31, 2021, loans held for investment increased $216.0 million, or 9.7%, from December 31, 2020, attributable to organic loan growth experienced in each quarter of 2021, partially offset by SBA forgiveness or repayments, net of originations, of $129.8 million on PPP loans.
Agricultural production loans were $103.0 million as of December 31, 2021, compared to $119.3 million as of September 30, 2021 and $105.9 million as of December 31, 2020. The decrease of $16.4 million from the third quarter of 2021 is due to typical seasonal repayments of these agricultural production loans.
Deposits and Borrowings
Deposits totaled $3.34 billion as of December 31, 2021, compared to $3.21 billion as of September 30, 2021 and $2.97 billion as of December 31, 2020. Deposits increased by $129.0 million, or 4.0%, in the fourth quarter of 2021 from September 30, 2021, with a majority of the increase relating to personal accounts. As of December 31, 2021, deposits increased $366.9 million, or 12.3%, from December 31, 2020. The increase in deposits since December 31, 2020 is primarily a result of organic growth as well as existing customers depositing funds received from PPP loan advances, stimulus checks, and generally maintaining higher liquidity in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Noninterest-bearing deposits were $1.07 billion as of December 31, 2021, compared to $1.05 billion as of September 30, 2021 and $917.3 million as of December 31, 2020. Noninterest-bearing deposits represented 32.1% of total deposits as of December 31, 2021. The change in noninterest-bearing deposit balances at December 31, 2021 compared to September 30, 2021 was an increase of $17.1 million, or 1.6%. The change in noninterest-bearing deposit balances at December 31, 2021 compared to December 31, 2020 was an increase of $154.0 million, or 16.8%. The changes from both compared periods is primarily a result of organic growth as well as existing customers increasing their deposit balances.
Asset Quality
As part of the Bank’s efforts to support its customers and protect the Bank in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Bank has provided borrowers impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic with relief by offering varying forms of loan modifications including 90-day payment deferrals, 6-month interest only terms, or in certain select cases periods of longer than 6 months of interest only terms. As of December 31, 2021, there were three total active loan modifications attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic totaling $15.9 million, or 0.7% of the Company’s loan portfolio. All of these active modified loans at December 31, 2021 are in the hotel portfolio and have original modified terms that extended up to 18 months. We expect that these remaining modified loans will return to full payment status at the end of their respective modification periods.
The Company did not record a provision for loan losses in the fourth quarter of 2021 or in the third quarter of 2021, compared to a provision for loan losses of $141 thousand for the fourth quarter of 2020. The Company experienced continued growth in the non-PPP loan portfolio while classified loans decreased by $20.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2021 and annualized net charge-offs increased eight basis points in the fourth quarter of 2021. As a result, the Company determined that no adjustment to the allowance for loan losses was necessary in the fourth quarter of 2021. There is continued uncertainty from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic (and any current or future variants thereof) and the full extent of the impact on the economy and the Company’s customers remains unknown at this time. Accordingly, additional or reversal of provisions for loan losses may be necessary in future periods.
The ratio of allowance for loan losses to loans held for investment was 1.73% as of December 31, 2021, compared to 1.76% as of September 30, 2021 and 2.05% as of December 31, 2020. The ratio of allowance for loan losses to non-PPP loans held for investment was 1.76% as of December 31, 2021.
The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets as of December 31, 2021 was 0.30%, compared to 0.32% as of September 30, 2021 and 0.45% at December 31, 2020. Annualized net charge-offs were 0.11% for the fourth quarter of 2021, compared to 0.03% for the third quarter of 2021 and 0.11% for the fourth quarter of 2020.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Some of the financial measures included in this press release are not measures of financial performance recognized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). These non-GAAP financial measures include Tangible Book Value Per Common Share, Tangible Common Equity to Tangible Assets, and Pre-Tax, Pre-Provision Income. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide both management and investors a more complete understanding of the Company’s financial position and performance. These non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for any analysis based on GAAP financial measures.
We classify a financial measure as being a non-GAAP financial measure if that financial measure excludes or includes amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding or including amounts, that are included or excluded, as the case may be, in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP as in effect from time to time in the United States in our statements of income, balance sheets or statements of cash flows. Not all companies use the same calculation of these measures; therefore, this presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures as presented by other companies.
A reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP financial measures is provided at the end of this press release.
