Glen Burnie Bancorp Announces Fourth Quarter And Full Year 2023 Results
GLEN BURNIE, Md., Feb. 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Glen Burnie Bancorp (“Bancorp”) (NASDAQ: GLBZ), the bank holding company for The Bank of Glen Burnie (“Bank”), announced today net income of
“While 2023 proved to be a challenging year for our industry, we are pleased with our 2023 operating results as we continue to benefit from the passion of our associates to offer our customers exceptional banking services,” said Mark C. Hanna, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Over the course of the year, rising interest rates and industry turmoil created a challenging and unpredictable market for banks. High interest rates continued to drive competition for loans and deposits. While these challenges will persist into 2024, we continue to focus our efforts on growing our core banking business. We partially mitigated our declining net interest margin through the repricing of new and existing loans at higher yields and the deployment of excess liquidity into higher yielding federal funds. Despite declining loan balances in a volatile market environment, we have built a stable earnings stream that should continue to deliver solid financial outcomes for the Company and our shareholders. We plan to add resources to drive deposit growth, enhance our small business lending capabilities, and make strategic adjustments to our operating structure to provide more value to both business and retail customers. These actions will significantly enhance our infrastructure and allow us to better serve our communities.
“Historically, the Company has navigated both rising rate and recessionary cycles with good outcomes, and we believe that the Company and the Bank are well-positioned to weather the current economic environment,” continued Mr. Hanna. “We expect 2024 to be another difficult operating environment for financial institutions, particularly ones with a heavy reliance on the spread business. We are focused on executing against our long-term strategic plan and realizing the value from expanded treasury management capabilities, a continued emphasis on providing premier relationship banking services and continued slowdown of organic growth in our indirect automobile loan portfolio. Accordingly, our measured approach to loan and deposit growth will persist throughout the year.”
In closing, Mr. Hanna added, “Our financial performance during the fourth quarter demonstrates this ability, although performance was still heavily impacted by the continuation of an inverted yield curve and rigorous competition for core deposits. Higher interest rate levels will keep pressure on loan growth and deposit retention, which impact our net interest margin. While interest rates may decrease in the future, we believe that the competition for loans and deposits will remain strong as we navigate through this cycle. We continue our focus on maintaining our strong capital levels, which are above regulatory required levels, preserving our solid asset quality, and maintaining our strong liquidity levels. I am proud of the results and profitability the team was able to achieve in 2023. I look forward to continued progress towards our strategic objectives in 2024. I want to thank all of the Glen Burnie Bancorp associates for their incredible contributions and unwavering customer support during this uncertain period."
