During the first six months of 2022, we produced meaningful growth in our net interest margin, while also significantly enhancing our asset quality. These results have not only improved our net income when compared to 2021, they have also further strengthened our historically robust capital position.” stated Daniel P. Reininga, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Our strong financial and capital position will allow us to react appropriately to the challenges of the current interest rate and economic environment.”

Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $12.4 million, an increase of $139,000, or 1.1%, compared to $12.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021The increase was primarily due to an 8 basis points increase in the average yield on interest-earning assets due to an increase in interest rates.

2022 second quarter interest expense was $453,000, a decrease of $285,000, or 38.6%, from $738,000 for 2021 second quarter primarily due to a decrease in interest paid on deposit accounts.

During the 2022 second quarter, interest expense on long-term debt decreased by $30,000, or 21.6%, compared to the 2021 second quarter, primarily due to a $5.8 million decrease in the average balance of long-term borrowings.

Non-interest income was $720,000 for the 2022 second quarter,  an increase of $37,000, or 5.4%, as compared to the same quarter in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to a $60,000 increase in unrealized gains on interest rate swaps primarily due to an increase in interest rates. The increase was also due to a $45,000 increase in service charges and fees.  The increases were partially offset by


 

a  $58,000 net change in the realized (loss)/gain on the sale of residential loans primarily due to an increase in interest rates.

The increase was also due to annual salary increases and increases in employee benefits.  Occupancy and equipment increased $120,000, or 18.2%, primarily due to an increase in maintenance contracts and equipment expenses related to the core processing system conversion completed in the third quarter of 2021 and the conversion to a cloud based computing system completed in the second quarter of 2022.  Other expenses increased $58,000, or 17.1%, primarily due to an increase in foreclosure related expenses.

Other expenses increased $275,000, or 42.8%, primarily due to an increase in telephone, loan and foreclosure related expenses.

The increase in total non-interest expenses  was partially offset by lower expenses for professional service, data processing, advertising, postage and supplies during the six months ended June 30, 2022 when compared to the same period in 2021.  



Asset Quality



The provision for loan losses was $100,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2022, a $400,000, or 80.0%, decrease as compared to $500,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in

The decrease in provision for loan losses was primarily due to a specific reserve related to the downgrade and impairment of one commercial real estate loan during the six months ended June 30, 2021, which was partially offset by an increase in commercial construction and commercial real estate loan balances during the six months ended June 30, 2022 when compared to the same period in 2021.



Non-performing loans as a percent of total net loans decreased to 0.48% at June 30, 2022 as compared to 1.86% at December 31, 2021. The decrease was primarily due to a $6.9 million, or 72.5%, decrease in non-accrual loans during the first six months of 2022 due to a payoff received on an impaired commercial real estate loan.  The Company’s allowance for loan losses as a percent of total net loans was 1.23% and 1.18% at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
