VANCOUVER, Wash., Oct. 29, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Riverview Bancorp, Inc. (Nasdaq GSM: RVSB) (“Riverview” or the “Company”) today reported earnings of $2.5 million, or $0.11 per diluted share for the second fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to $480,000, or $0.02 per diluted share, in the preceding quarter, and $4.5 million, or $0.20 per diluted share, in the second fiscal quarter a year ago. In the first six months of fiscal 2021, net income was $3.0 million, or $0.14 per diluted share, compared to $8.7 million, or $0.38 per diluted share, in the first six months of fiscal 2020.

“Riverview’s second quarter financial results continue to demonstrate the strength and resilience of our franchise,” stated Kevin Lycklama, president and chief executive officer. “We have remained focused on credit quality, maintaining our strong capital position and our continuous pursuit of improving operating efficiencies. I am extremely proud of the outstanding job by our entire team, who have shown tremendous resiliency during the ongoing pandemic and continue to provide the personal attention that our local business partners have come to expect from Riverview.”

Second Quarter Highlights (at or for the period ended September 30, 2020)

  • Net income was $2.5 million, or $0.11 per diluted share.
  • Pre-tax, pre-provision for loan losses income (non-GAAP) was $5.0 million for the quarter compared to $5.1 million in the previous quarter and $5.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2019.
  • Net interest margin (NIM) was 3.33%.
  • Provision for loan losses was $1.8 million, reflecting improved economic conditions and specific industry exposure in the loan portfolio.
  • Total loans were $975.2 million at September 30, 2020. SBA PPP loans totaled $110.8 million.
  • Total deposits increased $41.2 million, or 14.1% annualized, during the quarter to $1.20 billion.
  • Non-performing assets decreased to 0.09% of total assets.
  • Total risk-based capital ratio was 17.53% and Tier 1 leverage ratio was 9.82%.
  • Paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share.

“We are encouraged by the positive improvements noted during the quarter. Deposit activity has remained strong with annualized growth of nearly 15%. Loan accommodations decreased significantly during the quarter as our clients have experienced steady recoveries as local markets reopen. The improvement in regional business activity also had a positive impact on our non-interest income during the quarter and we effectively executed on our ongoing expense control measures,” Lycklama added.

COVID-19 Operational Update:

  • Industry Exposure: Both Washington and Oregon have modified phased reopening plans in place for businesses. While the economic impact is widespread, some industries are more acutely affected by the current business decline. Riverview’s loan portfolio exposure to industries most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic include:
    • Hotel/Motel ($108.2 million, 11.0% of total loans)
    • Retail Strip Centers ($79.6 million, 8.1% of total loans)
    • Restaurants/Fast Food ($14.9 million, 1.5% of total loans)

Loans to these clients are generally secured by real estate and had strong financial performance heading into the current pandemic. The weighted average loan-to-value and debt service coverage ratio for these portfolios were as follows: Hotel/Motel (51% and 1.90x), Retail Strip Centers (53% and 1.56x), and Restaurants/Fast Food (57% and 1.58x).

The Company continues to diligently monitor the effects of the pandemic on our customers. We have allocated additional staffing resources to conduct enhanced monitoring of our loan portfolio and identify at-risk borrowers. We remain in close contact and continue to work with these borrowers to develop longer term strategies to mitigate potential credit losses.

  • Loan Accommodations:
    • Commercial Loans. Loan modifications decreased 87% during the quarter. As of September 30, 2020, Riverview had 13 commercial loan accommodations totaling $49.7 million, a decrease from 98 loans totaling $161.6 million at June 30, 2020. Of these 13 loans, two were new loan accommodations approved during the quarter totaling $2.1 million. In October, Riverview received three new loan accommodation requests totaling $1.1 million to two different borrowers.  
    • Consumer Loans. As of September 30, 2020, there were four consumer loan accommodations in our portfolio totaling $471,000, a decrease from 43 loans totaling $10.1 million at June 30, 2020.
    • Since all these loans were performing and current on payments prior to COVID-19, these loan modifications are not considered to be troubled debt restructurings pursuant to provisions contained within the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”).
  • Loan Loss Reserve: Riverview recorded a $1.8 million provision for loan losses for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, bringing the allowance for loan losses to $18.9 million, or 1.93% of total loans, at September 30, 2020 compared to $17.1 million, or 1.70% of total loans, at June 30, 2020. “Our provision for loan losses decreased during the quarter and reflects the improvement in asset quality metrics in our portfolio and positive economic trends in our local markets. We believe we are adequately reserved for the current environment and are well-positioned to support our long-term growth initiatives,” said David Lam, executive vice president and chief financial officer.
  • Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) Loans: At September 30, 2020, Riverview had originated 790 loans totaling approximately $116.4 million with an average loan size of $147,000. Riverview did not originate any new PPP loans during the second fiscal quarter of 2021. The following table presents the breakdown of PPP loans as of September 30, 2020 (in thousands):
 RangeNumber of loans  Total 
 Under $50,000365 $8,671 
 $50,001 to $150,000251  21,633 
 $150,001 to $350,000107  23,996 
 $350,001 to $2,000,00059  40,191 
 Over $2,000,0008  21,937 
 Total790 $116,428 

PPP loan fees totaled $4.1 million of which $2.8 million remains unamortized as of September 30, 2020. These fees are deferred and are realized over the life of the loan or will be recognized in proportion to the amount of the loan when forgiven by the SBA. “We are now starting to process applications for PPP loan forgiveness for customers. We expect the timing of the loan forgiveness to have a meaningful benefit to operating results beginning in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2021,” said Lycklama.

Income Statement

Return on average assets was 0.71% in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to 0.15% in the preceding quarter. Return on average equity and return on average tangible equity (non-GAAP) was 6.71% and 8.23%, respectively, compared to 1.28% and 1.57% for the prior quarter.  

Riverview’s net interest income for the quarter was $11.1 million, flat compared to the preceding quarter and slightly lower than the $11.7 million reported in the second quarter of the prior year. In the first six months of fiscal 2021, net interest income was $22.2 million compared to $23.2 million in the first six months of fiscal 2020.

The Company’s NIM continues to be impacted by the increased level of excess liquidity. Second fiscal quarter NIM (GAAP) was 3.33% compared to 3.65% in the prior quarter and 4.36% in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The decrease in NIM was primarily due to the increase in liquidity and the decrease in the yield on interest earning assets, which were partially offset by decreases in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. In the first six months of fiscal 2021, the net interest margin was 3.48% compared to 4.35% in the same period a year earlier.

The average balance of our overnight cash balances increased $109.8 million sequentially and $194.0 million compared to the prior year as a result of the increase in deposit balances. The increase in overnight cash balances resulted in a 27 basis point decrease in the NIM compared to the prior quarter and a 55 basis point decrease compared to the same quarter a year ago.

The accretion on purchased loans totaled $123,000 compared to $137,000 during the preceding quarter and $78,000 in the same period a year ago, resulting in a four basis point increase in the NIM for the current period compared to a five basis point increase for the preceding quarter and a two basis point increase for the same period a year ago. Net fees on loan prepayments, which included purchased SBA loan premiums, decreased interest income by $77,000 which negatively affected the NIM by two basis points during the second fiscal quarter of 2021. This compares to $100,000 in net fees on loan prepayments decreasing the NIM by four basis points for the first fiscal quarter of 2021 and $112,000 in net fees on loan prepayments adding four basis points to the NIM for the second fiscal quarter a year ago. SBA PPP loans and related income and fees decreased the NIM by six basis points during the quarter, and by four basis points during the preceding quarter. This resulted in a core-NIM (non-GAAP) of 3.37% in the current quarter compared to 3.68% in the preceding quarter and 4.30% in the second fiscal quarter a year ago.

Loan yield decreased 11 basis points during the quarter to 4.58% compared to 4.69% in the preceding quarter primarily as a result of the impact from the lower yielding SBA PPP loans and the decline in market interest rates. Loan yield excluding SBA PPP loans was 4.81% for the second quarter compared to 4.83% in the preceding quarter.

The cost of deposits decreased to 0.22% during the second quarter compared to 0.31% in the preceding quarter and 0.27% during the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The sequential decrease in deposit costs during the September 30, 2020 quarter reflects the impact from the recent cuts in the federal funds target rate by the Federal Reserve in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Deposit costs are expected to further decrease as a result of the continued low interest rate environment and as certificates of deposit reach maturity. There are $83.6 million in CD balances that mature within one year of September 30, 2020, with a weighted average rate of 1.35%.

Non-interest income increased $196,000 during the quarter to $2.8 million compared to $2.6 million in the preceding quarter and was lower when compared to $3.2 million in the second fiscal quarter of 2020. Fees and service charges increased compared to the prior quarter as economic activity and consumer spending improved in Riverview’s local markets; however, these amounts remain lower than prior year due to the overall impact of the COVID pandemic. In the first six months of fiscal 2021, non-interest income was $5.4 million compared to $6.3 million in the same period a year ago.

Asset management fees decreased to $883,000 during the second fiscal quarter compared to $974,000 in the preceding quarter and $1.1 million in the prior year. The year over year decrease was primarily due to the impact from the decline in interest rates on fee generating products. Riverview Trust Company’s assets under management was $1.3 billion at September 30, 2020, unchanged from three months earlier. Assets under management were $690.5 million a year earlier.

Non-interest expense was $8.8 million compared to $8.7 million in the preceding quarter and $9.0 million in the second fiscal quarter a year ago. Salaries and employee benefits was $5.4 million compared to $5.2 million in the preceding quarter and $5.7 million in the second fiscal quarter a year ago. Salaries and employee benefits during the prior quarter included the deferral of compensation related to origination costs of SBA PPP loans of $553,000. Occupancy and depreciation expense remained comparable to the preceding quarter but was higher than a year ago, as Riverview continues to invest in its technology infrastructure. FDIC insurance premiums increased compared to the preceding quarter to $84,000 due to the Company utilizing its remaining FDIC assessment credits. Year-to-date, non-interest expense was $17.5 million compared to $18.2 million in the first six months of fiscal 2020.

The efficiency ratio was 63.7% for the second fiscal quarter compared to 63.2% in the preceding quarter and 60.5% in the second fiscal quarter a year ago.

Riverview’s effective tax rate for the second quarter of fiscal year 2021 was 21.7% compared to 23.0% for the second quarter a year ago.

Balance Sheet Review

Riverview’s total loans decreased $27.5 million during the quarter to $975.2 million compared to $1.00 billion in the preceding quarter and increased $93.9 million compared to $881.3 million a year ago. Loan growth for the quarter was impacted by continued payoffs and paydowns. The year over year increase was primarily driven by SBA PPP loans originated during the prior quarter. SBA PPP loans balances totaled $110.8 million at September 30, 2020. The decrease in real estate one-to-four family loans was due to the strategic decision to broker all new loan originations to third-party mortgage companies. The Company’s loan pipeline increased to $74.6 million at September 30, 2020 compared to $27.9 million at the end of the prior quarter, as increased economic activity in our markets helped stabilize and improve lending activity.

Undisbursed construction loans totaled $12.0 million at September 30, 2020 compared to $18.1 million in the preceding quarter, with the majority of the undisbursed construction loans expected to fund over the next several quarters. Revolving commercial business loan commitments totaled $73.9 million at September 30, 2020. Utilization on these loans totaled 8.7% at September 30, 2020 compared to 16.0% at June 30, 2020. The weighted average rate on loan originations during the quarter was 4.12% at September 30, 2020 compared to 3.36% at June 30, 2020.

Deposits increased $41.2 million during the quarter to $1.20 billion at September 30, 2020 compared to $1.16 billion in the preceding quarter and increased $217.7 million compared to $982.3 million a year earlier. The increase in deposits during the quarter was primarily concentrated in checking accounts, which increased $23.9 million. Checking accounts as a percentage of total deposits increased to 51.4% at September 30, 2020 from 48.7% at September 30, 2019.

Shareholders’ equity was $149.0 million at September 30, 2020 compared to $147.5 million three months earlier and $143.1 million a year earlier. Tangible book value per share (non-GAAP) increased to $5.43 at September 30, 2020 compared to $5.38 at June 30, 2020 and $5.06 at September 30, 2019. Riverview paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share on October 20, 2020, consistent with the prior quarter.

Credit Quality

Non-performing loans totaled $1.3 million, or 0.13% of total loans, at September 30, 2020, flat compared to three months earlier. Non-performing loans were $1.5 million, or 0.17% of total loans, at September 30, 2019. Net loan charge-offs were $10,000 during the second fiscal quarter of 2021 compared to $48,000 in the preceding quarter and $6,000 in the second fiscal quarter a year ago.

Classified assets totaled $4.8 million at September 30, 2020 compared to $5.0 million at June 30, 2020 and $4.3 million at September 30, 2019. The classified asset to total capital ratio was 3.2% at September 30, 2020 compared to 3.3% three months earlier and 3.0% a year earlier.

At September 30, 2020, the allowance for loan losses increased to $18.9 million compared to $17.1 million in the preceding quarter and $11.4 million one year earlier. The allowance for loan losses represented 1.93% of total loans at September 30, 2020 compared to 1.70% in the preceding quarter and 1.30% a year earlier. The allowance for loan losses to loans, net of SBA guaranteed loans (including SBA PPP loans) (non-GAAP), was 2.35% at September 30, 2020, and 2.08% at June 30, 2020. Included in the carrying value of loans are net discounts on the MBank purchased loans, which may reduce the need for an allowance for loan losses on these loans because they are carried at an amount below the outstanding principal balance. The remaining net discount on these purchased loans was $871,000 at September 30, 2020 compared to $994,000 three months earlier.

Capital

Riverview continues to maintain capital levels well in excess of the regulatory requirements to be categorized as “well capitalized” with a total risk-based capital ratio of 17.53% and a Tier 1 leverage ratio of 9.82% at September 30, 2020. Tangible common equity to average tangible assets ratio (non-GAAP) was 8.68% at September 30, 2020.

Branch Consolidation

Riverview continues to actively review its branch network for efficiencies due to customers’ increased usage of online and mobile banking technologies. On September 28, 2020, Riverview consolidated two of its branches in Clark County, Washington and simultaneously opened a new branch in the Cascade Park neighborhood of Vancouver. The Company also announced the consolidation of one additional branch scheduled for January 2021. Riverview plans to open a new location in Ridgefield, Washington which is expected to open during the summer of 2021.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), this press release contains certain non-GAAP financial measures. Management has presented these non-GAAP financial measures in this earnings release because it believes that they provide useful and comparative information to assess trends in Riverview's core operations reflected in the current quarter's results and facilitate the comparison of our performance with the performance of our peers. However, these non-GAAP financial measures are supplemental and are not a substitute for any analysis based on GAAP. Where applicable, comparable earnings information using GAAP financial measures is also presented. Because not all companies use the same calculations, our presentation may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures as calculated by other companies. For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures, see the tables below.

Such forward-looking statements may include projections. Any such projections were not prepared in accordance with published guidelines of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or the Securities Exchange Commission regarding projections and forecasts nor have such projections been audited, examined or otherwise reviewed by independent auditors of the Company. In addition, such projections are based upon many estimates and inherently subject to significant economic and competitive uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of management of the Company. Accordingly, actual results may be materially higher or lower than those projected. The inclusion of such projections herein should not be regarded as a representation by the Company that the projections will prove to be correct.

The Company cautions readers not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Moreover, you should treat these statements as speaking only as of the date they are made and based only on information then actually known to the Company. The Company does not undertake and specifically disclaims any obligation to revise any forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances after the date of such statements. These risks could cause our actual results for fiscal 2021 and beyond to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements by, or on behalf of, us, and could negatively affect the Company’s operating and stock price performance.
