Pinnacle Bancshares, Inc.OTC: PCLB

Pinnacle Bancshares Announces Results for Second Quarter Ended June 30, 2023

· Issued by Pinnacle Bancshares, Inc. via Business Wire

Robert B. Nolen, Jr., President and Chief Executive Officer of Pinnacle Bancshares, Inc. (OTCBB: PCLB), today announced the Company’s second quarter results of operations.

  • For the three months ended June 30, 2023, net income was $1,145,000 which resulted in basic/diluted earnings per share to be $1.26. Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $1,210,000, which resulted in basic/diluted earnings per share of $1.25 per share.
  • For the six months ended June 30, 2023, Pinnacle reported net income of $2,325,000 which resulted in basic/diluted earnings per share to be $2.56. Net income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $2,320,000, which resulted in basic/diluted earnings per share of $2.39 per share. Included in net income for the six months ended June 30, 2022 are Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) amortized loan fees of approximately $190,000. There were no PPP amortized loan fees recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2023.
  • For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, return on average assets was 1.36%, and 1.38%, respectively, compared to 1.39% and 1.33%, respectively, in the comparable 2022 period.

The Company’s net interest margin was 3.35 and 3.43% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to 3.28% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022. The Company anticipates that interest expense relating to its funding will continue to increase during the remainder of the year as a result of several factors such as increased deposit exception pricing and increased deposit migration to higher yielding deposit products.

Mr. Nolen commented, “In response to concerns about liquidity and capital strength related to bank failures that occurred earlier in the year, we remain confident in our risk status. Our primary focus is, and will continue to be, the Bank’s safety and soundness, and the protection of our depositors.”

At June 30, 2023, the Company’s allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans was 2.13%, compared to 2.16% at December 31, 2022. Nonperforming assets were $482,000 at June 30, 2023, compared to $0 at December 31, 2022. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total loans was .41% and .00% at June 30, 2023. Effective January 1, 2023, the Company adopted the current expected credit loss (CECL) model to account for credit losses on financial instruments, including loans. The adoption of the CECL model did not have an impact on the Company’s loan loss reserve due to minimal net losses that have occurred during the past five years.

Pinnacle Bank was classified as “well capitalized” at June 30, 2023. All capital ratios are significantly higher than the requirements for a well-capitalized institution. As of June 30, 2023, the Bank’s common equity Tier 1 capital and Tier 1 risk-based capital ratios were each 17.66%. As of June 30, 2023, its total capital ratio was 18.74%, and its Tier 1 leverage ratio was 10.94%.

Management believes that the Company has ample liquidity through its low loan to deposit ratio at June 30, 2023, as well as available funding from outside sources. Our net funding availability, as a percentage of our franchise funding, is 103.75% as compared to our established minimal limit of 25%. In addition, the Bank provides access to additional FDIC insurance coverage for accounts that would otherwise exceed deposit insurance coverage. The Company also retested its Federal Funds line and other borrowing lines during the first half of 2023.

The Company’s total deposits at June 30, 2023 decreased $11.7 million, or 3.6%, as compared to December 31, 2022. As mentioned previously, pricing of deposits is anticipated to become more competitive during the remainder of the year, and thus deposits could continue to decrease as they did during the first half of 2023.

Effects of Inflation

Inflation caused a substantial rise in interest rates during 2022 which has had a negative effect in the securities market. As a result of rising interest rates, the Company recorded an accumulated other comprehensive loss on securities available for sale of approximately $30.2 million as of December 31, 2022. The Company’s other comprehensive loss as of June 30, 2023 has been lowered to $27.9 million. Although these unrealized losses recorded as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were significant, management does not anticipate these losses to be other than temporary as these unrealized losses do not currently appear related to any credit deterioration within the portfolio but from higher interest rates. In addition, these losses do not impact our regulatory capital ratios.

The Company conducts monthly internal stress testing scenarios of its liquidity to confirm that the Company continues to maintain ample liquidity.
