NEW YORK, May 01, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PDL Community Bancorp (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: PDLB), the holding company for Ponce Bank (the “Bank”), reported a net loss of ($1.2 million), or ($0.07) per basic and diluted share, for the first quarter of 2020, compared to a net loss of ($7.5 million), or ($0.43) per basic and diluted share, for the prior quarter and net income of $668,000, or $0.04 per basic and diluted share, for the first quarter of 2019.

Based on our current assessment of the economic impact of the Coronavirus pandemic (“COVID-19”) on our borrowers, we have determined that it will likely be a detriment to borrowers’ ability to repay in the short-term and that the likelihood of long-term detrimental effects will depend significantly on the resumption of normalized economic activities, a factor not yet determinable. Accordingly, and in consideration of its loan payment forbearance programs initiated in March 2020, the Company increased its allowance for loan losses by $1.2 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 when compared to December 31, 2019. As a result, the Company’s allowance for loan losses to total loans increased to 1.37% at March 31, 2020 compared to 1.28% at December 31, 2019. Given that total non-accrual loans decreased to $9.7 million at March 31, 2020 from $11.6 million at December 31, 2019, the allowance for loan losses of $13.5 million at March 31, 2020 provides a coverage ratio to non-accrual loans of 138.5% compared to 106.3% at December 31, 2019.

Bank Operations and Customer Service

As New York became the hotbed of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States, the Bank altered the way it has historically provided services to its deposit customers while seeking to maintain normal day-to-day back-office operations and lending functions. To that end, all back-office and lending personnel transitioned to a remote work environment while the branch network provided traditional banking services to its communities using varying hours of operations and shifting service delivery to electronic and web-based products. The Bank embarked on an extensive and intensive communications program geared to informing customers of the alternative resources provided by the Bank for retaining access to financial services, closing loans and conducting banking transactions, such as ATM networks, online banking, mobile applications, remote deposits and the Bank’s Contact Center. The Bank proactively manages its day-to-day operations by using video and telephonic conferences.

“Although 2020 started off in much the same way as any year, as the rapidly progressing COVID-19 pandemic hit, our primary focus shifted to protecting our employees, customers and the communities we serve,” said Carlos P. Naudon, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “We also shifted to ensuring the viability of our institution. Our loan portfolio has significant concentrations in a few types of real estate. Accordingly, we reallocated resources to reviewing salient segments and assessing whether they might be disproportionately impacted by COVID-19 consequences. We were, and continue to be, in contact with borrowers that have requested payment deferrals and those that have applied for loans under the Small Business Administration’s Paycheck Protection Program. We will continue to work with our borrowers as we navigate through the probable effects of this pandemic and we will continuously evaluate the potential of loan losses, given the shifting economic environment. However, based on our current reviews, we remain confident that the quality of our underwriting, our weighted average loan-to-value ratio of 55.8% and our customer selection processes have served us well and provided us with a reliable base with which to maintain a well-protected loan portfolio.”

Capital and Liquidity Planning

Bank management regularly updates its capital and liquidity models and has recently updated these models to address COVID-19 developments by revising capital buffers, adopting temporary regulatory modifications, and making changes to our outlook regarding certain risks as developments evolved. The Bank remains well-above the required capital ratios to be considered a well-capitalized bank. Total Capital to Risk-weighted Assets was 17.84%, Tier 1 Capital to Risk-weighted Assets was 16.59%, Common Equity Tier 1 Capital Ratio was 16.59%, and Tier 1 Capital to Total Assets was 12.76% at March 31, 2020. The regulatory capital ratios to be considered well-capitalized under prompt corrective action provisions are 10.00%, 8.00%, 6.50%, and 5.00%, respectively.

Bank management also took steps to enhance its liquidity position by increasing its on balance sheet cash and cash equivalents position in order to meet unforeseen liquidity events and to fund upcoming funding needs. Total cash and cash equivalents was $104.0 million at March 31, 2020 compared to $27.7 million at December 31, 2019. The increase is partially a result of a net increase of $47.9 million in Federal Home Loan Bank of New York (“FHLBNY”) advances at March 31, 2020 when compared to December 31, 2019. The net change in FHLBNY advances has resulted in a decrease to the weighted average cost of funds of 1.69% at March 31, 2020, compared to 2.21% at December 31, 2019.

Net Income (Loss)

The $6.2 million decrease in net loss compared to the prior quarter reflects a decrease in noninterest expense of $8.7 million, or 44.4%, primarily related to the prior quarter’s one-time charge of $9.9 million in connection with the termination of the Company’s Defined Benefit Plan, of which $7.8 million was previously recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and a $2.1 million write-off related to the deferred tax asset associated with the Defined Benefit Plan. The decrease was also attributable to a $288,000, or 2.3%, increase in interest and dividend income, and a $74,000, or 2.3%, decrease in interest expense, offset by a $1.7 million decrease in income taxes benefit, a $1.1 million increase in provision for loan losses, and a $43,000, or 6.5%, decrease in noninterest income.

The $1.2 million net loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 compared to $668,000 in net income for the first quarter of 2019 reflects a $1.7 million, or 19.0%, increase in noninterest expense, a $997,000, or 669.1%, increase in provision for loan losses, a $186,000, or 6.4%, increase in interest expense and a $131,000, or 17.4%, decrease in noninterest income, offset by a $648,000, or 5.2%, increase in interest and dividend income and a $516,000 decrease in provision for income taxes.

Net Interest Margin

Net interest margin continued to improve as new loans continued to be booked and deposits transitioned to lower market rates. The net interest margin increased by 16 basis points to 3.87% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from 3.71% for the three months ended December 31, 2019, while the net interest rate spread increased by 17 basis points to 3.51% from 3.34% for the same periods. Average interest-earning assets increased by $10.2 million, or 1.0%, to $1,031.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from $1,021.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased by 12 basis points to 5.07% from 4.95%, for the same periods. Average interest-bearing liabilities increased by $16.9 million, or 2.2%, to $799.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from $782.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The weighted average rate on interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 5 basis points to 1.56% from 1.61% for the same periods. 

Net interest margin increased by 1 basis point to 3.87% for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from 3.86% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, while the net interest rate spread increased by 5 basis points to 3.51% from 3.46% for the same periods. Average interest-earning assets increased by $38.6 million, or 3.9%, to $1,031.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from $993.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The average yield on interest-earning assets increased by 1 basis point to 5.07% from 5.06%, for the same periods.

The average rate on interest-bearing liabilities decreased by 4 basis points to 1.56% from 1.60% for the same periods.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income was $622,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, down $43,000, or 6.5%, from $665,000 for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The decrease was attributable to decreases of $85,000, or 41.7%, in late and prepayment charges related to mortgage loans and $18,000, or 6.8%, in service charges and fees, offset by increases of $53,000, or 34.9%, in other noninterest income and $7,000, or 16.3%, in brokerage commissions.

Noninterest income was $622,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2020, down $131,000, or 17.4%, from $753,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The decrease was mainly attributable to decreases of $70,000, or 25.5%, in other noninterest income, $59,000, or 54.1%, in brokerage commissions and $20,000, or 14.4%, in late and prepayment charges related to mortgage loans, offset by an increase of $18,000, or 7.8%, in service charges and fees.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense increased $1.3 million, or 13.4%, to $10.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, from $9.5 million, excluding the one-time charge of $9.9 million related to the prior quarter’s termination of the Defined Benefit Plan, for the three months ended December 31, 2019. The increase in noninterest expense was the result of increases in consulting fees of $626,000, professional services of $274,000 related to the document imaging project adopted in late 2019, licensed software of $228,000 associated with the Salesforce partnership, marketing and advertising related to the deposit acquisition strategy adopted in 2019 of $164,000, a 401(k) safe harbor contribution of $161,000, an additional expense of $120,000 related to the termination of the Defined Benefit Plan during the fourth quarter of 2019 and data processing fees of $73,000, offset by decreases in rent expense of $248,000 related to deferred rent and other noninterest expenses of $122,000. The increases in consulting fees of $626,000 were mainly due to increases of $549,000 related to a consulting agreement designed to optimize the Bank’s deposit products lineup and aligning it with its long-term retail relationship strategy, which has resulted in 4,264 new and/or converted deposit accounts totaling $56.2 million and $185,000 as a result of the newly formed partnership with Salesforce that began in January, offset by a decrease of $108,000 in all other consulting expenses.

Noninterest expense increased $1.7 million, or 19.0%, to $10.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 from $9.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increase in noninterest expense was the result of increases in consulting fees of $639,000, professional services of $274,000 related to the document imaging project adopted in late 2019, licensed software of $228,000 associated with the Salesforce partnership, marketing and advertising related to the deposit acquisition strategy adopted in 2019 of $164,000, a 401(k) safe harbor contribution of $161,000, professional services of $146,000 related to internal audit, other noninterest expenses of $132,000, an additional expense of $120,000 related to the termination of the Defined Benefit Plan during the fourth quarter of 2019 and data processing fees of $115,000, offset by decreases in rent expense of $248,000 related to deferred rent. The increases in consulting fees of $639,000 were mainly due to increases of $549,000 related to a consulting agreement designed to optimize the Bank’s deposit products lineup and aligning it with its long-term retail relationship strategy, which has resulted in 4,264 new and/or converted deposit accounts totaling $56.2 million and $185,000 as a result of the newly formed partnership with Salesforce that began in January, offset by a decrease of $95,000 in all other consulting expenses.

Asset Quality

Nonperforming assets decreased to $9.7 million, or 0.85% of total assets, at March 31, 2020, from $11.6 million, or 1.10% of total assets, at December 31, 2019 and increased from $8.0 million, or 0.77% of total assets, at March 31, 2019. The increase from March 31, 2019 is mainly attributable to an increase of nonaccruals in nonresidential loans of $2.7 million and 1-4 family residential loans of $645,000, offset by decreases in construction and land loans of $1.3 million, business loans of $275,000, multifamily residential loans of $13,000 and consumer loans of $4,000.

The $1.2 million in provision for loan losses for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, is a direct result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our borrowers, compared to $95,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2019 and $149,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019. As noted, the Company’s assessment of the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on borrowers indicates that it is likely that it will be a detriment to their ability to repay in the short term and that the likelihood of long-term detrimental effects depends significantly on the resumption of normalized economic activities, a factor not yet determinable. The allowance for loan losses was $13.5 million, or 1.37% of total loans, at March 31, 2020, compared to $12.3 million, or 1.28% of total loans, at December 31, 2019 and $12.4 million, or 1.33% of total loans, at March 31, 2019. Net recoveries totaled $9,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 and $74,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2019. Net charge-offs totaled $360,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2019.

As of April 30, 2020, we had modified 296 loans aggregating $291.3 million, primarily consisting of the deferral of principal, interest, and escrow payments for a period of three months. These short-term modifications have been made on a good faith basis in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and had been performing in accordance with their contractual obligations.

Balance Sheet

Total assets increased $97.2 million, or 9.2%, to $1,150.9 million at March 31, 2020 from $1,053.8 million at December 31, 2019. The increase in total assets is mainly attributable to increases in cash and cash equivalents of $76.3 million, net loans receivable of $17.2 million, other assets of $3.5 million and FHLBNY stock of $2.2 million, offset by a decrease in available-for-sale securities of $2.4 million. The increase in cash and cash equivalents of $76.3 million was partially due to an increase of $47.9 million in advances from FHLBNY. The increase in net loans receivable of $17.2 million was primarily due to increases of $9.1 million, or 3.6%, in multifamily residential loans, $4.9 million, or 1.2%, in 1-4 family residential loans, $3.0 million, or 1.5%, in nonresidential properties loans, $893,000, or 0.9%, in construction and land loans, $306,000, or 2.8%, in business loans and $57,000, or 4.6%, in consumer loans, offset by an increase in the allowance for losses on loans of $1.2 million due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Total deposits increased $47.7 million, or 6.1%, to $829.7 million at March 31, 2020 from $782.0 million at December 31, 2019. The increase in deposits was mainly attributable to increases of $44.9 million, or 15.9%, in total savings, NOW, reciprocal deposits (certificates of deposits and money market) and money market accounts, $1.5 million, or 0.4 %, in total certificates of deposit, which includes brokered certificates of deposit and listing service deposits, and $1.3 million, or 1.1% in demand deposits. The $44.9 million increase in savings, NOW, reciprocal deposits and money market accounts was mainly attributable to increases of $34.9 million, or 40.3%, in money market accounts, $14.7 million, or 30.9%, in reciprocal deposits, offset by decreases of $3.4 million, or 3.0%, in savings accounts and $1.3 million, or 3.9%, in NOW/IOLA accounts. Advances from the FHLBNY increased $47.9 million at March 31, 2020 compared to December 31, 2019.

Total stockholders’ equity was $155.7 million at March 31, 2020, compared to $158.4 million at December 31, 2019. The decrease in stockholders’ equity was mainly attributable to $2.0 million of stock repurchases and a net loss of $1.2 million, offset by increases in additional paid-in capital of $352,000 related to restricted stock units and stock options, $124,000 related to the Company’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan and $91,000 related to unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities. 

Steven A. Tsavaris, Executive Chairman, remarked that, “We are extremely proud of the way the Ponce Bank team has responded and come together during these unprecedented times and how supportive and understanding they have been in their commitment to continue to provide the exceptional personal customer service that our customers have been accustomed to. A great part of this success is attributed to the investments that we have made over the last several quarters to enhance all of our delivery channels and our technology platforms across the board."
