10/22/2020 - 05:30 PM
AMESBURY, Mass., Oct. 22, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Provident Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) (NasdaqCM: PVBC), the holding company for The Provident Bank (the “Bank”), reported net income for the three months ended September 30, 2020 of $3.2 million , or $0.18 per diluted share, compared to $3.5 million , or $0.19 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $7.7 million , or $0.42 per diluted share, compared to $8.3 million , or $0.44 per diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. As a result of the completion of the second-step conversion and related stock offering in October 2019, all historical share and per share information has been restated to reflect the 2.0212-to-one exchange ratio.
The Company also announced that its Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.03 per share, which will be paid on November 19, 2020 to stockholders of record as of November 5, 2020.
In announcing these results, Dave Mansfield, Chief Executive Officer said, “Although uncertainty surrounding the U.S. economy continues, we are encouraged by the strength of our customers and communities. During the third quarter, many businesses were able to implement adjustments to adapt to the COVID-19 environment, enabling them to fully or partially re-open and service customers. As a result we have seen fewer requests for new or extended modifications, with many borrowers who had modified their loan during the height of the pandemic able to resume normal loan repayments.” Mansfield added, “Ensuring our clients receive an exceptional banking experience remains our top priority. During these unprecedented times, I am especially thankful for the energy and dedication of our employees who go above and beyond every single day to deliver on that promise.” Mansfield continued, “We are also pleased to announce the payment of another quarterly cash dividend. We believe that the payment of dividends, coupled with our recently announced stock repurchase program, evidence our financial strength during difficult economic times.”
C OVID –19 Response
The Company’s market area has implemented a phased reopen plan and has not seen a significant spike in cases since the implementation began. The continued progression has allowed businesses to reopen and service customers with restrictions in place. Many companies have been able to make adjustments to their operations to adapt to the COVID-19 environment during the second and third quarters of 2020. There remains significant uncertainty about COVID-19, including concerns of a second wave of the pandemic and potential challenges caused by the colder winter months. While it is not possible to know the full extent that the impact of COVID-19 will have on the Company’s operations, the Company will continue to disclose potentially material items of which it is aware.
During the third quarter of 2020 the Company has continued to take steps to resume normal operations, which includes the collection of service and other fees on deposit accounts, and the reopening of most of our retail branch lobbies. The Company also continues to focus on meeting the needs of its customer base during the pandemic. The Company has maintained close communication with commercial customers and allowed for deferral extensions on an as-needed and case-by-case basis. During the third quarter there were 24 loan modifications completed, 12 of these were new modifications on loans totaling $17.6 million and 12 were extensions of existing modifications for loans totaling $8.2 million . Of the 24 loan modifications completed 14 were interest only modifications for loans totaling $19.0 million and 10 were full payment deferrals on loans totaling $6.9 million . Many loans under modification have been able to resume normal repayment and as of September 30, 2020 loan modifications made under the CARES Act totaled $175.4 million , or 12.9% of total loans, compared to $264.2 million , or 20.6% of totals loans as of June 30, 2020. The Company has $86.8 million in loan modifications set to resume normal repayment in October 2020. We are currently working with borrowers to determine their ability to resume the scheduled repayments or their need for a deferral extension. In addition to loan modifications, the Company continues to work with customers who received loans under the Small Business Administration’s (“SBA’s”) 7(a) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) on applying for loan forgiveness.
Financial R esults
Net interest and dividend income before provision for loan losses increased by $2.9 million , or 26.6% , compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019 and increased by $7.3 million , or 22.9% , compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The growth in net interest and dividend income for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2019 is primarily the result of an increase in our average interest-earning assets of $341.9 million , or 34.3% , offset by an increase in average interest-bearing liabilities of $105.6 million , or 15.3% , and a decrease in net interest margin of 26 basis points to 4.18% . The growth in net interest and dividend income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 is primarily the result of an increase in average interest-earning assets of $291.4 million , or 30.5% , offset by an increase in average interest-bearing liabilities of $88.5 million , or 13.3% , and a decrease in the net interest margin of 26 basis points to 4.18% .
Provision for loan losses of $760,000 were recognized for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $833,000 for the same period in 2019. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, a provision of $4.7 million was recognized compared to $3.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The changes in the provision were based on management’s assessment of loan portfolio growth and composition changes, historical charge-off trends, levels of problem loans and other asset quality trends. The Company has reviewed certain qualitative factors in light of significant economic deterioration due to COVID-19. Due to the continued uncertainty caused by COVID-19, including concerns of a second wave of the pandemic and potential challenges caused by the colder winter months, continued provisions were recognized.
The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.31% as of September 30, 2020 compared to 1.42% as of December 31, 2019. Included in total loans is $78.0 million in PPP loans originated as part of the CARES Act that we believe have no credit risk due to a government guarantee, therefore we have not provided for losses for these loans. Excluding these loans, the allowance for loan losses as a percentage of total loans was 1.39% as of September 30, 2020. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage of non-performing loans was 70.57% as of September 30, 2020 compared to 237.58% as of December 31, 2019. Non-performing loans were $25.2 million , or 1.68% of total assets as of September 30, 2020, compared to $5.8 million , or 0.52% of total assets, as of December 31, 2019. As of September 30, 2020, non-performing loans consist primarily of two commercial relationships and one commercial real estate relationship. These loan relationships were evaluated for impairment and specific reserves of $1.4 million were allocated as of September 30, 2020. The commercial real estate loan relationship totaling $19.8 million was restructured during the first quarter of 2020. The relationship has been paying as agreed in accordance with the restructured terms.
Noninterest income decreased $129,000 , or 12.4% , to $911,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $1.0 million for the same period in 2019. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in other service charges fee and customer service fees on deposit accounts, partially offset by an increase in bank owned life insurance and other income. Other service charges and fees decreased $198,000 , or 44.0% , and customer service fees on deposit accounts decreased $22,000 , or 5.4% , primarily due to decreased consumer spending, which resulted in decreased overdraft fees and service charges. Bank owned life insurance income increased $59,000 , or 33.7% , due to the purchase of additional insurance. Other income increased $32,000 , or 290.0% , primarily due to fee income for SBA PPP loan referrals. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, noninterest income decreased $517,000 , or 16.5% , to $2.6 million compared to $3.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in gains on sales of securities, other service charges fee, and customer service fees on deposit accounts, partially offset by an increase in bank owned life insurance and other income. Gains on sales of securities were zero for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $113,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 as we repositioned our investment portfolio in debt securities available for sale. Other service charges and fees decreased $395,000 , or 28.9% , and customer service fees on deposit accounts decreased $91,000 , or 8.4% , primarily due to waived service charges and fees during the second quarter for customers impacted by COVID-19 and decreased consumer spending. Bank owned life insurance income increased $59,000 , or 11.2% , due to the purchase of additional insurance. Other income increased $23,000 or 48.9% , primarily due to fee income on SBA PPP loan referrals.
Noninterest expense increased $3.2 million , or 49.9% , to $9.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $6.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. The increase is primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits expense, professional fees and write-downs of assets receivable. The increase of $1.5 million , or 32.4% , for the three months ended September 30, 2020 in salary and employee benefits was primarily due to a higher number of sales and operations positions compared to the same period in 2019 and the addition of staff from the mortgage warehouse lending purchase. A write-down of an SBA receivable balance was completed after the Company evaluated the collectability and determined that $1.3 million is likely uncollectible though collection efforts are still being made. Professional fees increased $344,000 , or 286.7% , primarily due to decreased legal expenses in 2019 relating to an insurance settlement that was received in the third quarter. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, noninterest expense increased $6.3 million , or 31.2% , to $26.4 million compared to $20.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The increase is primarily due to an increase in salaries and employee benefits, other expense and professional fees and write-downs on receivables, partially offset by a decrease in occupancy expense. The increase of $4.1 million , or 31.3% , for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 in salary and employee benefits was primarily due to a higher number of sales and operations positions compared to the same period in 2019, the addition of staff from the mortgage warehouse operations and ESOP expense, which increased due to the acquisition of additional shares from our second-step conversion and related stock offering in October 2019. In addition to the $1.3 million write-down of an SBA receivable as noted above, a write-down of a notes receivable balance of $500,000 was completed in the first quarter after the Company evaluated the collectability and determined it was uncollectible. Other expense increased $211,000 , or 9.3% , due to increased loan workout expenses and professional fees increased $179,000 or 17.2% , due to the 2019 insurance settlement noted above as well as increased audit and compliance costs. Occupancy expense decreased $313,000 , or 20.0% , primarily due to the acceleration of our leasehold improvements amortization related to the closure of our Hampton, New Hampshire branch in 2019.
As of September 30, 2020, total assets have increased $376.2 million , or 33.5% , to $1.50 billion compared to $1.12 billion at December 31, 2019. The primary reasons for the increase are increases in net loans, bank owned life insurance and accrued interest receivable, partially offset by a decrease in cash and cash equivalents and in investments in debt securities available-for-sale. Net loans increased $382.1 million , or 39.8% , to $1.34 billion as of September 30, 2020 compared to $959.3 million at December 31, 2019. The increase in net loans was due to an increase in commercial loans of $131.0 million , or 29.0% , the acquisition and growth of mortgage warehouse loans to $275.8 million , and an increase in commercial real estate loans of $7.8 million , or 1.9% , partially offset by decreases in construction and land development loans of $11.0 million , or 23.5% , residential real estate loans of $8.8 million , or 19.2% , and consumer loans of $5.7 million , or 44.9% . The increase in commercial loans was primarily due to the origination of $78.0 million in SBA PPP loans. The increase in bank owned life insurance of $9.5 million , or 39.8% , was primarily due to the purchase of additional insurance. The increase in accrued interest receivable of $3.3 million , or 114.4% , was primarily due to deferred interest on loan modifications as part of the CARES Act. The decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $12.2 million , or 20.5% , resulted from the purchase of the mortgage warehouse loans, partially offset by an increase in deposits. The decrease in debt securities available-for-sale of $7.4 million , or 17.6% , resulted primarily from principal pay downs on government mortgage-backed securities.
Total liabilities increased $367.7 million , or 41.3% , due to increased deposits and an increase in borrowings. Deposits were $1.17 billion as of September 30, 2020, representing an increase of $318.3 million , or 37.5% , compared to December 31, 2019. The increase in deposits was due to an increase of $140.0 million , or 37.9% , in NOW and demand deposits, an increase of $55.5 million , or 20.5% in money market accounts, $88.6 million , or 93.9% , in time deposits, and an increase of $34.2 million , or 29.6% , in savings accounts. Money market deposits and NOW and demand deposits increased due to funds from the origination of PPP loans and strategic deposit growth strategy. The increase in time deposits is primarily due to increases in brokered certificates of deposit of $66.6 million , or 137.0% , and an increase of $34.5 million , or 399.0% , from Qwickrate deposits, where we gather certificates of deposit nationwide by posting rates we will pay on these deposits. The increase in savings accounts is primarily caused by decreased consumer spending which resulted in increased consumer savings. Borrowings increased $48.5 million , or 194.0% , to $73.5 million as of September 30, 2020 primarily due to increased overnight borrowings to fund the mortgage warehouse loan growth.
As of September 30, 2020, shareholders’ equity was $239.4 million compared to $230.9 million at December 31, 2019, representing an increase of $8.5 million , or 3.7% . The increase was primarily due to year-to-date net income of $7.7 million , stock-based compensation expense of $760,000 , other comprehensive income of $601,000 and employee stock ownership plan shares earned of $621,000 , partially offset by a decrease of $1.2 million from dividends declared.
