Princeton Bancorp Announces Second Quarter 2023 Results

· Issued by Princeton Bancorp, Inc. via PR Newswire

PRINCETON, N.J., July 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Princeton Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") (NASDAQ - BPRN), the bank holding company for The Bank of Princeton (the "Bank"), today reported its unaudited financial condition and results of operations at and for the quarter ended June 30, 2023.  The Company reported net income of $6.8 million, or $1.07 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2023, compared to net income of $6.1 million, or $0.95 per diluted common share, for the first quarter of 2023, and net income of $6.3 million, or $0.98 per diluted common share, for the second quarter of 2022. The increase in net income for the second quarter of 2023 when compared to the first quarter of 2023 was primarily due to an increase of $10.2 million in non-interest income and a $1.7 million decrease in income tax expense, partially offset by an $8.0 million increase in non-interest expense, a $2.2 million increase in the provision for credit losses, and a $1.0 million decrease in net interest income. The increase in net income for the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 was primarily due to an increase of $10.5 million in non-interest income and a $1.5 million decrease in income tax expense, partially offset by an $8.4 million increase in non-interest expense and a $2.5 million increase in the provision for credit losses.  For the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded net income of $12.9 million, or $2.02 per diluted common share, compared to $12.3 million, or $1.89 per diluted common share, for the same period in 2022. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $10.8 million in non-interest income and a $1.2 million decrease in income tax expense, partially offset by an $8.9 million increase in non-interest expense, and a $2.7 million increase in provision for credit losses.

"As I look forward, the Bank is well-positioned to continue its strong growth path," President/CEO Edward Dietzler commented on the quarter. The second quarter resulted in several significant developments for the Bank. We completed the acquisition of Noah Bank which will be immediately accretive to earnings and with no dilution to shareholders. The Noah acquisition fits perfectly with our strategy to be the bank of choice up and down the I-95 corridor.  My thanks to our staff, especially the operations and technology teams, that concluded the transition seamlessly.  We will continue to look at other opportunities that fit this overall strategy."

"The quarter also demonstrated the loyalty of our customer base with total deposits, excluding Noah Bank's deposits, increasing by $88.7 million, a 6.9% increase over the first quarter.  Including Noah, deposits gained $280.8 million.  The deposit growth did come at a cost due to continuing rate increase headwinds.  Cost of funds rose as a result of the increased cash position, but the Bank maintained a respectable 3.95% margin," said Mr. Dietzler.

As a result of the increase in deposits, balance sheet liquidity increased to $125.1 million in immediately available cash with zero borrowings.  The Bank's has a sizable loan pipeline in the communities we serve that it anticipates funding in the second half of 2023 supported by the Bank's strong capital position.

Balance Sheet Review

Total assets were $1.84 billion at June 30, 2023, an increase of $241.2 million, or 15.1% when compared to $1.60 billion at the end of 2022. The primary reason for the increase in total assets was the acquisition of Noah Bank on May 19, 2023, which had approximately $239.4 million in assets at closing. When looking at specific components of the balance sheet, including acquired assets, the Company recorded an increase in net loans of $129.3 million, an increase in cash and cash equivalents of approximately $89.7 million, an increase in its right of use asset of $7.3 million, an increase of $4.9 million due to Noah Bank's deferred tax assets and an increase in other assets of $2.5 million.  The increase in the Company's net loans consisted of a $149.4 million increase in commercial real estate loans and a $17.2 million increase in commercial and industrial loans, partially offset by a decrease of $33.9 million in construction loans.

Total deposits at June 30, 2023 increased $225.2 million, or 16.7%, when compared to December 31, 2022.  The primary reasons for the increase in total deposits were the $192.1 million in deposits acquired from Noah Bank and the $33.1 million increase from existing operations.  When comparing deposit products between the two periods, certificates of deposit increased $277.4 million and money market deposits increased $38.2 million.  Partially offsetting these increases were decreases in interest-bearing demand deposits of $45.4 million and savings deposits of $38.0 million at June 30, 2023.  

Total stockholders' equity at June 30, 2023 increased $9.3 million or 4.2% when compared to the end of 2022. The increase was primarily due to the $8.8 million increase in retained earnings, consisting of $12.9 million in net income partially offset by $3.8 million of cash dividends recorded during the period. The ratio of equity to total assets at June 30, 2023 and at December 31, 2022, was 12.4% and 13.7%, respectively. The current period ratio decrease was primarily due to the Noah Bank acquisition.  

Asset Quality

At June 30, 2023, non-performing assets totaled $9.8 million, an increase of $9.5 million, when compared to the amount at December 31, 2022. This increase was due to the delinquency of a $4.5 million commercial real estate loan after recording a $1.7 million charge-off, as well as $2.9 million of construction loans and $2.5 million of non-performing loans acquired from Noah Bank. The $1.7 million charge-off of the $4.5 million commercial real estate loan's balance was based on recent third party offers to purchase the note received by the Bank. The property securing this loan is located in New York City.  Management took a conservative approach and reduced the loan balance although no formal commitment was executed as of this date.

With the adoption of the Current Expected Credit Losses ("CECL") method of calculating the allowance for credit losses effective January 1, 2023, performing troubled debt restructurings ("TDRs") are no longer reported for the current period.  At December 31, 2022 there were three loans classified as TDR loans totaling $5.9 million and each of these loans was performing in accordance with the agreed-upon terms.  

Review of Quarterly and Year-to-Date Financial Results

Net interest income was $15.7 million for the second quarter of 2023, compared to $16.7 million for the first quarter of 2023 and $16.3 million for the second quarter of 2022.  The decrease from the previous quarter was the result of an increase in interest expense of $3.4 million, or 86.1%, partially offset by an increase in interest income of $2.4 million. The net interest margin for the second quarter 2023 was 3.95%, decreasing 64 basis points when compared to the first quarter of 2023. This decrease was primarily associated with an increase of 86 basis points in the cost of funds associated with rising interest rates, partially offset by a 16 basis-point increase in yield on loans. When comparing the three-month periods ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, net interest income decreased $626 thousand, which was primarily due to an increase of 171 basis points in the cost of funds, partially offset by an increase of 132 basis points in the yield earned on interest-earning assets. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, net interest income of $32.3 million was up slightly compared to net interest income of $32.1 million during the first half of 2022.  The increase from the previous six-month period was the result of an increase in interest income of $9.1 million, or 26.3%, partially offset by an increase in interest expense of $8.9 million, or 372.4% as a result of the 425 basis-point increase in federal funds interest rates since mid-June 2022.

The Bank recorded a provision for credit losses of $2.5 million during the three months ended June 30, 2023 and $265 thousand during the first quarter of 2023. The Bank recorded no provision for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The provision of $2.5 million recorded in the current quarter consists of $2.7 million associated with the Company's loan portfolio offset by a credit to the provision of $250,000 associated with unfunded commitments.  Included in the Company's provision was $1.7 million related to non-purchased credit deteriorated loans resulting from the Noah Bank acquisition. Net charge-offs for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2023 were $1.8 million for both periods. For the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2022, the Bank recorded net recoveries of $12 thousand and $46 thousand, respectively. With the adoption of the CECL method of calculating the allowance for credit losses on January 1, 2023, the Bank recorded a one-time decrease, net of tax, in retained earnings of $284 thousand, a reduction to the allowance for credit losses of $301 thousand and an increase in the reserve for unfunded liabilities of $695 thousand. During the second quarter of 2023, the Bank reduced the reserve for unfunded liabilities in the amount of $250 thousand.  The coverage ratio of the allowance for credit losses to period end loans was 1.20% at both June 30, 2023 and at December 31, 2022.

Total non-interest income of $11.6 million for the second quarter of 2023 was a $10.2 million or a 741.7% increase when compared to the first quarter of 2023 and a $10.5 million or 940.0% increase when compared to the quarter ended June 30, 2022. The increase over both quarters was primarily due to the $9.7 million bargain purchase gain recorded in connection with the Noah acquisition completed during the second quarter of 2023. Also contributing to the increase in non-interest income over both comparative periods was an increase in loan fees of $679 thousand and $727 thousand over the first quarter of 2023 and the second quarter of 2022, respectively. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, non-interest income increased $10.8 million, or by 499.6%, primarily due to the $9.7 million bargain purchase gain and an increase in loan fees of $1.0 million over the same period in 2022.

Total non-interest expense of $17.8 million for the second quarter of 2023 increased $8.0 million, or 82.3% and $8.4 million, or 88.9%, when compared to the first quarter of 2023 and the quarter ended June 30, 2022, respectively.  This increase over both the prior quarter and the second quarter of 2022 was primarily due to the $7.0 million in merger costs associated with the Noah acquisition.  Also contributing to the increase in non-interest expense over both comparative periods were increases in salaries and benefits of $377 thousand and $868 thousand and increases in occupancy and equipment costs of $364 thousand and $276 thousand over the first quarter of 2023 and the second quarter of 2022, respectively.  When comparing the second quarter of 2023 to the same period in 2022, data processing and communications costs were up $262 thousand and office expenses were up $116 thousand. For the six-month period ended June 30, 2023, non-interest expense was $27.6 million, compared to $18.7 million for the same period in 2022.  The increase was primarily due to merger-related expenses of $7.0 million during 2023 as well as increases in salaries and employee benefits of $1.4 million over the same period in 2022.

For the three-month period ended June 30, 2023, the Company recorded an income tax expense of $161 thousand, resulting in an effective tax rate of 2.3%, compared to an income tax expense of $1.9 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 23.8% for the three-month period ended March 31, 2023, and compared to an income tax expense of $1.6 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 20.6% for the three-month period ended June 30, 2022. The effective tax rate for the current period was substantially reduced as a result of the non-taxable bargain purchase gain related to the Noah acquisition.  For the six-month period ending June 30, 2023, income tax expense was $2.1 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 13.8% compared to income tax expense of $3.3 million and an effective tax rate of 20.9%.
