MONROEVILLE, Pa., Oct. 29, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Standard AVB Financial Corp. (the “Company”) - (NASDAQ: STND), the holding company for Standard Bank, PaSB, announced earnings for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 of $2.2 million, or $0.49 per basic share. Net income for the third quarter was significantly impacted by expenses of $553,000 ($544,000 after tax) related to the pending merger with Dollar Mutual Bancorp. Excluding the after tax impact of the merger-related expenses, net income would have been $2.8 million or $0.61 per basic share for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 compared to $2.5 million, or $0.54 per basic share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. In addition to merger expenses, the decrease in earnings for the quarter resulted primarily from lower interest income partially offset by higher net loan sale gains and referral fees and lower interest expense and income tax expenses.
The Company announced earnings for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 of $4.5 million, or $0.99 per basic share. Year to date merger-related expenses were $553,000 ($544,000 after tax). Excluding the after tax impact of merger-related expenses, net income would have been $5.0 million or $1.11 per basic share compared to $6.7 million, or $1.45 per basic share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. In addition to merger expenses, the decrease in earnings for the nine month period resulted primarily from a higher provision for loan losses, equity fair value adjustments and lower interest income, partially offset by lower interest expense, higher net loan sale gains and referral fees and lower income taxes.
The Company’s annualized return on average assets and average equity were 0.84% and 6.19%, respectively, (1.05% and 7.70%, respectively, excluding the merger-related expenses) for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 compared to 0.99% and 6.93%, respectively, for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The Company’s annualized return on average assets and average equity were 0.58% and 4.19%, respectively, (0.65% and 4.70%, respectively, excluding the merger-related expenses) for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to 0.92% and 6.43%, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.
The Company’s board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.221 per share on the Company’s common stock. The dividend will be payable to stockholders of record as of November 9, 2020 and will be paid on November 23, 2020.
On September 25, 2020, the Company and Dollar Mutual Bancorp jointly announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which Dollar Mutual Bancorp will acquire the Company in an all cash transaction for an aggregate purchase price of $158 million. The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2021.
Andrew W. Hasley, President & CEO, stated, “While we continue to operate in an environment of significant economic uncertainty, we have produced positive financial results for our shareholders. The historically low interest rate environment has resulted in the contraction of our net interest margin; however, we remain committed to controlling expenses and maximizing earnings from sources other than net interest income to continue to produce positive results. For the second straight quarter, residential loan sale gains and referral fees increased to record levels. Throughout this time, we have continued to prudently manage our credit as well as interest rate risk. Conservative positioning on both fronts will result in a more resilient business model as the long term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic remains unclear.
The Company ended September with an increased capacity to absorb credit losses, an abundance of liquidity and regulatory capital well in excess of the proscribed minimums. Taking all of this into consideration, the Company made the decision to maintain our dividend at this time.”
CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET & ASSET QUALITY OVERVIEW
Total assets at September 30, 2020 increased $81.6 million, or 8.3%, to $1.1 billion, from $984.4 million at December 31, 2019. The increase in total assets included an increase in cash and cash equivalents of $33.8 million, or 104.1%, an increase in loans receivable of $31.0 million, or 4.4%, and an increase in investment securities of $12.6 million, or 7.6%. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily the result of an increase in deposits during the period which is further broken down below. The increase in loans receivable was due in large part to the $42.4 million in Small Business Administration (“SBA”) Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loans that were booked during the period partially offset by prepayments and residential loan sales.
Total deposits at September 30, 2020 increased by $73.2 million, or 10.0%, to $807.6 million from $734.5 million at December 31, 2019. The increase resulted from a $91.0 million, or 18.6%, increase in demand and savings accounts partially offset by a $17.9 million, or 7.3%, decrease in time deposits. The increase in demand and savings accounts resulted from increases in both business and consumer products. The increases were primarily the result of inflows from several sources including PPP loan proceeds, government stimulus and maturing time deposits as well as reductions in business and consumer spending during the period. Borrowed funds increased by $2.3 million, or 2.3% to $105.2 million at September 30, 2020 from $102.8 million at December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily due to an increase in securities sold under agreements to repurchase during the period partially offset by the net repayment of Federal Home Loan Bank advances.
Stockholders’ equity increased by $2.4 million, or 1.7% to $144.3 million at September 30, 2020 from $141.8 million at December 31, 2019. The increase was the result of net income earned during the period as well as an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income partially offset by dividends paid and stock repurchased during the period. The Company temporarily suspended its stock repurchase plan on March 19, 2020.
Non-performing loans at September 30, 2020 were $3.7 million, or 0.50% of total loans compared to $2.7 million, or 0.38% of total loans at December 31, 2019.
The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), was signed into law on March 27, 2020, and provided for over $2.0 trillion in emergency economic relief to individuals and businesses impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act authorized the SBA to temporarily guarantee loans under a new 7(a) loan program, the PPP. As a qualified SBA lender, the Company was automatically authorized to originate PPP loans. As of September 30, 2020, Standard Bank had received approval from the SBA for 428 PPP loans totaling $42.4 million which generated $1.7 million in fees to be recognized over the life of the loans. The PPP loan program closed on August 8, 2020. The Company is currently working with customers to submit the required information to the SBA in order to receive the maximum amount of loan forgiveness.
The Company has continued to provide assistance to individuals and small business clients directly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic by allowing borrowers to defer loan payments. As of September 30, 2020, the Bank had payment deferrals for 60 commercial loans totaling $10.5 million and 19 consumer loans totaling $1.9 million. All of these loans were initially provided a deferral period of 90 days and, if necessary, an additional deferral period was provided upon request. The Company remains fully committed to serving our customers and communities through this uncertain time.
It is anticipated that certain industries will continue to suffer losses as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Bank’s loan portfolio consists of commercial real estate, commercial business and residential loans that may be primarily impacted. The largest commercial loan concentrations are to the lessors of residential properties and the lessors of nonresidential properties representing 34.0% and 24.2% of the commercial loan portfolio at September 30, 2020, respectively.
OPERATING RESULTS OVERVIEW
Net interest income was $7.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $7.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2019. Net interest income was $20.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to $21.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The net interest margin for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was 2.85%, compared to 3.08% for the same period in the prior year. The net interest margin for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was 2.89%, compared to 3.14% for the same period in the prior year. The decreases in net interest income and net interest margin for both periods were primarily due to a decrease in the yield on interest-earning assets partially offset by a decrease in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities and an increase in the balance of interest-earning assets.
A provision for loan losses of $368,000 was recorded for the three months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $254,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2019. A provision for loan losses of $2.5 million was recorded for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $544,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The increased provision for loan losses for both the quarter and year to date periods was impacted by the increasing concern over the pandemic’s impact on the local, regional and national economy as well as the hotel sector where it was determined necessary to build reserves.
Noninterest income totaled $2.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to $1.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. The increase in noninterest income for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily the result of an increase in residential loan sale gains and referral fees partially offset by a decrease in other income. Noninterest income totaled $3.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $3.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The increase in noninterest income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily the result of an increase in residential loan sale gains and referral fees partially offset by a decrease in the net equity securities fair value adjustment and a decrease in other income.
Noninterest expenses totaled $6.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to $5.2 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. Excluding merger-related expenses, noninterest expenses totaled $5.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020. The increase in noninterest expenses other than merger-related expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily the result of increases in federal deposit insurance and compensation expenses. Noninterest expenses totaled $16.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $16.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Excluding merger-related expenses, noninterest expenses totaled $16.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. The increase in noninterest expenses other than merger-related expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was primarily the result of an increase in other operating expenses partially offset by a decrease in core deposit amortization.
Income tax expense totaled $508,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared to $707,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2019. Income tax expense totaled $876,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, compared to $1.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The decrease in income tax expense was primarily the result of a decrease in taxable income as well as a lower effective tax rate for the period.
