THE COMMUNITY FINANCIAL CORPORATION Operating Results for the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2020

WALDORF, Md., July 27, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Community Financial Corporation (NASDAQ: TCFC) (the “Company”), the holding company for Community Bank of the Chesapeake (the “Bank”), reported its results of operations for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2020.

The Company reported net income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 of $3.5 million or diluted earnings per share of $0.59 compared to a net income for the second quarter of 2019 of $3.6 million or a diluted earnings per share of $0.65. The Company’s return on average assets (“ROAA”) and return on average common equity (“ROACE”) were 0.69% and 7.27% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 0.84% and 8.99% in three months ended June 30, 2019. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, net income, diluted earnings per share, ROAA and ROACE were $2.7 million, $0.47, 0.61% and 6.00%, respectively.

The Company reported net income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 of $6.2 million or diluted earnings per share of $1.05 compared to a net income for the comparable period of 2019 of $7.5 million or a diluted earnings per share of $1.35. The Company’s ROAA and ROACE were 0.69% and 7.27% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 0.84% and 8.99% in six months ended June 30, 2019. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, second quarter and year to date 2020 earnings were impacted by an increased provision for loan losses ("PLL") of $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $875,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company's pre-tax pre-provision ROAA and pre-tax pre-provision ROACE increased to 1.57% and 15.95% during the first six months of 2020 compared to 1.30% and 13.91% for the same period in 2019.

"This quarter has been difficult for many of our customers and for the communities we serve," stated William J. Pasenelli, President and Chief Executive Officer. "The Bank has successfully operated throughout the crisis and we look forward to further reopening of the economy. We made significant adjustments to our operations as we put into action our pandemic response plan. We continued to serve the community throughout the crisis by participating in programs like the U.S. Small Business Administration's Payroll Protection Program (“U.S. SBA PPP”), keeping our branches open, and working with customers to maintain their loans. We know that there will be credit impacts from the crisis’s economic disruption and we are increasing our credit provisions accordingly. We have continued our progress in other areas by controlling expenses, increasing noninterest income, and increasing net interest income. We look forward to a post COVID economy as we continue to move forward."

"Our commitment to our existing and new customers and to our local economy was demonstrated by our dedicated team in the second quarter of 2020. We booked $265 million in loan deferral modifications and $130 million in Small Business Administration's Payroll Protection Program loans. Our ongoing commitment to our communities will continue by providing access to existing and future federal and state relief programs," stated James M. Burke, Executive Vice President and Bank President. "We believe our work with local businesses during this unprecedented crisis has created goodwill that should net new lasting customer relationships."

Second Quarter Highlights

  • During the second quarter, total net loans, which include portfolio loans and U.S. SBA PPP loans, increased 34.4% annualized or $127.0 million from $1,477.1 million at March 31, 2020 to $1,604.1 million at June 30, 2020. Gross portfolio loans increased 0.7% annualized or $2.7 million from $1,490.1 million at March 31, 2020 to $1,492.7 million at June 30, 2020. Portfolio loans include all loan portfolios except the U.S. SBA PPP loan portfolio.

    The U.S. SBA PPP loan is designed to provide a direct incentive for small businesses to keep their workers on the payroll. SBA will forgive loans if all employee retention criteria are met, and the funds are used for eligible expenses. U.S. SBA PPP loans carry a two to five year term at a 1% annual interest rate until the loan is either forgiven or paid. The forgiveness window is expected to open during the third quarter of 2020 and we are optimistic that many of our PPP customers will take the opportunity to request forgiveness in the third and fourth quarters of 2020. The Company recorded net deferred fees of $3.9 million during the second quarter that are being amortized as a component of interest income through the contractual maturity date of each individual PPP loan.  Net deferred fees include fees (deferred fees) paid to participant banks for each PPP loan underwritten and funded as well as costs incurred to underwrite the loans (deferred costs). PPP loan forgiveness will allow the Company to recognize remaining net deferred fees in the quarter of forgiveness.

    The Company funded virtually all PPP loans with the Federal Reserve lending facility to fund banks offering SBA PPP loans (the Federal Reserve "PPPLF" program) at a 0.35% annual interest rate. The Company is participating in the Federal Reserve Bank's PPPLF Program. As of June 30, 2020, the Company's outstanding PPPLF advances were $126.8 million.  Due to the expected temporary increase to assets and the 100% government guaranty, banking regulators have provided favorable regulatory capital treatment by excluding the activity and balances from regulatory capital ratios.

    The Company’s loan pipeline was approximately $134.0 million at June 30, 2020. Loan growth is expected to slow as a result of the COVID-19 crisis for the balance of 2020.
  • Total deposits increased $157.8 million to $1,670.4 million at June 30, 2020 compared to $1,512.6 million at March 31, 2020. The $157.8 million increase included a $177.2 million increase to transaction deposits and a $19.4 million decrease to time deposits. Non-interest bearing demand deposits have increased $102.1 million or 40.2% to $356.2 million (21.3% of deposits) at June 30, 2020 compared to $254.1 million (16.80% of deposits) at March 31, 2020.

  • Net income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 increased $702,000 to $3.5 million, or $0.59 per share, compared to $2.7 million, or $0.47 per share, in the prior quarter. The Company’s ROAA and ROACE were 0.69% and 7.27% in second quarter of 2020 compared to 0.61% and 6.00% in the prior quarter. The Company had no material adjustments to operating net income and operating earnings per share, operating ROAA and operating ROACE were the same for the comparable periods (see Non-GAAP reconciliation schedules).

  • At and for the three months ended June 30, 2020, the Company's allowance for loan loss ("ALLL") and PLL were impacted by economic and operational conditions related to COVID-19. The allowance increased $5.4 million or 49.1% to $16.3 million at June 30, 2020 from $10.9 million at December 31, 2019. The PLL and ALLL as a percent of total loans may increase in future periods if the credit quality of our loan portfolio declines and loan defaults increase as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

  • Net interest margin decreased to 3.34% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 from 3.43% for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Net interest income increased $871,000 from $14.4 million in the previous quarter to $15.2 million in the second quarter of 2020. Accretion interest from acquired loans was $181,000 and $222,000 for the comparable periods. Net interest margin was negatively impacted from the funding of U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA") Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loans of $129.4 million which resulted in approximately eight basis points of net interest margin compression for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Average loans increased $115.5 million from $1,447.5 million in the first quarter of 2020 to $1,563.0 million in the second quarter of 2020, primarily as a result of PPP loans originated during the second quarter and growth in the average balances of commercial real estate loans.

    Due to a slightly liability-sensitive balance sheet, the Company experienced increasing net interest margin in the first quarter of 2020 and stable margins during the second quarter of 2020 after adjusting for PPP loan and funding activity. Some compression of our net interest margin is foreseeable in the second half of 2020 with the possibility that interest-earning assets will reprice faster than interest-bearing liabilities. Conversely, PPP loan forgiveness will positively impact margins and net interest income in the quarter(s) of forgiveness with the recognition of remaining net deferred fees.
  • For the three months ended June 30, 2020, loan yields and overall interest-earning asset yields decreased 39 and 44 basis points to 4.17% and 3.88%, respectively, compared to 4.56% and 4.31%, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The Bank’s cost of funds decreased 39 basis points to 0.54% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 from 0.93% for the three months ended March 31, 2020.

  • Noninterest expense of $9.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 decreased $286,000 compared to $9.7 million in the prior quarter. The decrease was primarily due to lower compensation and benefits and professional fees, partially offset by higher than average OREO valuation allowances. Compensation and benefits were lower due to the allocation of $406,00 in deferred costs for PPP loans originated during the second quarter of 2020. Adjusted noninterest expense (see Non-GAAP reconciliation schedules), which excluded OREO related expenses decreased $604,000 to $8.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The following is a summary breakdown of noninterest expenses comparing June 30, 2020 and March 31, 2020:
    Three Months Ended        
(dollars in thousands)   June 30, 2020   March 31, 2020   $ Change   % Change
Compensation and benefits   $ 4,714     $ 5,188     $ (474 )     (9.1 )%
OREO valuation allowance and expenses   1,100     782     318       40.7 %
Operating expenses   3,583     3,713     (130 )     (3.5 )%
Total noninterest expense   $ 9,397      $ 9,683      $ (286 )     (3.0 )%

 

  • The GAAP efficiency ratio was 53.75% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 58.78% for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Management remains committed to controlling expenses. The non-GAAP (or “operating”) efficiency ratio, which excludes, securities gains and losses, OREO gains and losses and other non-core activities, was 47.87% at June 30, 2020 compared to 55.39% at March 31, 2020 (see Non-GAAP reconciliation schedules).

COVID-19 Response

The outbreak of COVID-19 has adversely impacted a range of industries in the Company's footprint. The length and the severity of the pandemic could prevent our customers from fulfilling their financial obligations to the Company. While there have been no material impacts to the Company's employees or business to date, COVID-19 could potentially create business continuity issues for the Company. Congress, the President of the United States ("POTUS"), and the Federal Reserve have taken actions designed to cushion the economic fallout. Most notably, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security ("CARES") Act was signed into law on March 27, 2020 as a $2 trillion legislative package. The goal of the CARES Act is to prevent a severe economic downturn through various measures, including direct financial aid to American families and economic stimulus to significantly impacted industry sectors. There have been additional clarifications to regulation and legislation since the original law was passed.

The Company has taken significant steps to protect the health and well-being of its employees and customers and to assist customers who have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. These steps are reflected in our Board-approved Pandemic Preparedness Plan that includes the following practices and procedures:

  • Management's Pandemic team, which includes members of the Executive team, Accounting, Risk, Information Technology, Lending, Operations, Human Resources, and Facilities meets bi-weekly and more frequently as needed. Executive management reports weekly, or more as needed to the Chairman of the Board. The Board is updated on a regular basis and as needed by executive management and the Chairman of the Board.
     
  • We successfully deployed employees to remote work as needed. We have communicated timely to team members as well as to our customers, implemented protocols for team member safety, and initiated strategies for monitoring and responding to local COVID-19 impacts - including critical customer relief efforts. The Company's preparedness efforts, coupled with quick and decisive plan implementation, resulted in minimal impacts to operations as a result of COVID-19. Improvements to the Company's technology platforms over the last several years enabled the successful transition to a remote work environment for employees whose job responsibilities can be carried out effectively from home.
     
  • During the second quarter we reopened our branch lobbies. The Company is committed to assisting our customers and communities in this time of need. To ensure the health and safety of our customers and employees, we are limiting the number of customers in our branch locations and requiring customers and our employees to wear masks. Customer areas are sanitized after every interaction. We encourage our customers to make appointments to address their needs.  Our branches have been supplied with masks, gloves and disinfectant materials for employees to use throughout the day. All facilities and ATMs are being cleaned daily.
     
  • We remain focused on the well-being of our employees. Executive management established regular communications with employees to keep them informed of  benefits available to them and steps we are taking to keep them safe.  
     
  • We are helping our deposit customers.  Some measures include assisting customers with stopping recurring transactions to eliminate overdraft fees and increasing deposit limits on our mobile App. We are monitoring the Customer Support Center staffing to ensure successful management of call volume. We continue to perform all customer requests including onboarding and closing accounts effectively, through our online channel, the drive thru and branch staff.
     
  • We have payment deferral programs for our customers who are adversely affected by the pandemic. Depending on the demonstrated need of the client, the Company is deferring either the full loan payment or the principal component of the loan payment between 90 and 180 days. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had executed 312 loan deferrals on outstanding loan balances of $264.9 million. As of July 22, 2020, customer deferral requests have slowed and the Bank was considering additional deferrals of approximately $20.0 million. As of July 22, 2020 there were $7.2 million relating to seven loans that were reported as delinquent as of June 30, 2020 with approved COVID-19 loan deferrals not yet completed. These loans were current prior to the COVID-19 crisis and will not be considered delinquent loans or troubled debt restructures ("TDRs") upon completion of the modification agreements. Given the ongoing uncertainty regarding the length and economic impact of the COVID-19 crisis and the effects of various government stimulus programs, the estimated number and dollar impact of loan deferrals the Company could execute is subject to change.

    Additionally, none of the deferrals are reflected in the Company’s asset quality measures (i.e., non-performing loans) due to the provision of the CARES Act that permits U.S. financial institutions to temporarily suspend the U.S. GAAP requirements to treat such short-term loan modifications as TDR. These provisions have also been confirmed by interagency guidance issued by the federal banking agencies and confirmed with staff members of the Financial Accounting Standards Board.
  • We are originating U.S. Small Business Administration ("SBA") Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP") loans. The Company is actively assisting its customers with applications for resources through the program. As of June 30, 2020, the Company had originated 902 SBA PPP loans with balances of $129.4 million. In addition, due to a second round of funding authorized by POTUS and Congress, as of June 30, 2020, the Bank will continue to assist the community until the authorized funding is depleted. The Company has funded PPP loans with the Federal Reserve PPPLF facility.

Management's COVID-19 credit analysis is included in our Asset Quality discussion.

Balance Sheet - Asset Quality

We expect the COVID-19 pandemic to have an adverse effect on our loan pipeline and the credit quality of our loan portfolio during the remainder of 2020. Disruption to our customers could result in increased loan delinquencies and defaults and a decline in local loan demand. The Company's COVID-19 loan deferral commercial and retail programs could delay the identification and resolution of problem credits. Management believes impaired loans may increase in the future as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. No credit issues are anticipated with SBA PPP loans as they are guaranteed by the Small Business Administration and the Bank's allowance for loan loss does not include an allowance for U.S. SBA PPP loans. 

Non-accrual loans and OREO to total gross portfolio loans and OREO increased three basis points from 1.75% at December 31, 2019 to 1.78% at June 30, 2020. Non-accrual loans, OREO and TDRs to total assets decreased 16 basis points from 1.46% at December 31, 2019 to 1.30% at June 30, 2020. 

Non-accrual loans increased $5.0 million from $17.9 million at December 31, 2019 to $22.9 million at June 30, 2020. The increase in non-accrual loans during the first six months 2020 was largely the result of several substandard classified relationships that before the COVID-19 were performing.  At June 30, 2020, $20.0 million or 87.4% of total non-accruals of $22.9 million related to 10 customer relationships. At December 31, 2019, $15.0 million or 84% of total non-accruals of $17.9 million related to seven customer relationships. Non-accrual loans of $2.8 million (12%) were current with all payments of principal and interest with no impairment at June 30, 2020. Delinquent non-accrual loans were $20.1 million (88%) with specific reserves of $88,000 at June 30, 2020.  

The OREO balance decreased $4.1 million from $7.8 million December 31, 2019 to $3.7 million at June 30, 2020. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 there were no OREO additions. OREO disposals of $2.3 million netted losses of $9,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020. To adjust properties to current appraised values, additions to the valuation allowance of $1.8 million were taken for the six months ended June 30, 2020. OREO carrying amounts reflect management’s estimate of the realizable value of these properties incorporating current appraised values, local real estate market conditions and related costs.

Classified assets decreased $9.5 million from $34.6 million at December 31, 2019 to $25.1 million at June 30, 2020. Management considers classified assets to be an important measure of asset quality. The Company's risk rating process for classified loans are an important input into the Company's allowance methodology. Risk ratings are expected to be an important indicator beginning in the third quarter of 2020 in assessing credit risks of the COVID-19 deferred loans.

The Company recorded a $3.5 million and $7.6 million provision for loan loss expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $375,000 and $875,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. Net charge-offs of $2.2 million were recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to net charge-offs of $303,000 and $933,000 for the same periods in 2019. The allowance increased $5.4 million or 49.14% to $16.3 million at June 30, 2020 from $10.9 million at December 31, 2019. Allowance for loan loss levels increased to 1.09% of total portfolio loans at June 30, 2020 compared to 0.75% at December 31, 2019. U.S. SBA PPP loans are excluded from the Bank's allowance methodology due to the guarantee of the U.S. SBA. Since December 31, 2019, the Company's June 30, 2020 general allowance increased 39 basis points to 1.09% and decreased four basis points for the specific allowances to less than 0.01%. The allowance as a percentage of non-acquired loans increased 35 basis points to 1.14% at June 30, 2020 from 0.79% at December 31, 2019.

The Company's allowance methodology considers quantitative historical loss factors and qualitative factors to determine the estimated level of incurred losses in the Company's loan portfolios. The increased provision expense recorded in the first six months of 2020 was primarily due to the uncertainty surrounding economic conditions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and to a lesser degree growth in the commercial loan portfolio.  In addition, the allowance in the second quarter of 2020 increased due to COVID-19 deferred loans. See attached schedules on COVID-19 deferred loans.

In March 2020, the U.S. economy deteriorated as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and as of June 30, 2020, it remains unclear when the economy will reach a low point. Real first quarter 2020 Gross Domestic Product ("GDP") declined 5.0% and most economists are predicting that personal consumption will remain suppressed until there is a vaccine, more effective therapeutic treatments and local and state government willingness to open their economies. Maryland and Virginia June 2020 unemployment rates according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics were 8.0% and 8.4%, respectively. Nationally, the unemployment rate declined by 2.2% percentage points to 11.1% in June, and the number of unemployed persons fell by 3.2 million to 17.8 million. Although unemployment fell in May and June, the jobless rate and the number of unemployed are up by 7.6% and 12.0 million, since February 2020. Decreases in the unemployment rate may not continue if spikes in COVID-19 infections and hospitalizations cause local and state governments to consider shutting down recently opened up economies.

The COVID-19 crisis has created uncertainty in regulation and placed an additional burden on our employees. POTUS, Congress, financial regulators, the SEC and the FASB have been encouraging Banks to work with impacted customers. The regulatory treatment of deferred loans and delinquency will make credit metrics less transparent, timely and useful. In addition to historical loss credit metrics, we used other metrics to quantify incurred losses in the Company's loan portfolio. These include the additional work level on staff, the increased pace of change in regulations, and the increasing number of deferred loans. The Company's credit and lending employees have been working with customers who are experiencing financial stress as a result of COVID-19. Processing the increase in activity and new regulations with similar pre-COVID-19 crisis staff levels inherently increases credit risk.

Management also considered the increased probability of default from loans modified to defer payments during the crisis. Deferred loan modifications at June 30, 2020 were $264.9 million or 17.7% of total gross portfolio loans. Management believes that the COVID-19 deferred loan population will experience higher default rates than non-deferred portfolio loans. In our evaluation of the deferred loan portfolio, management considered the length of the deferral period, the type and amount of collateral and customer industries. The analysis considered the impact to the allowance model if certain metrics were available (e.g., delinquency), but because of the COVID-19 deferral period will remain as lagging indicators. When the deferral periods end in the fourth quarter of 2020 and the first quarter of 2021, we plan to use customer specific qualitative metrics in our ALLL calculation.

The allowance for loan losses as a percent of total loans may increase in future periods based on our belief that the credit quality of our loan portfolio could decline and loan defaults may increase as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

We anticipate that a significant portion of the Bank's borrowers in the hotel, restaurant and retail industries will continue to endure significant economic distress, which has caused, and may continue to cause, them to draw on their existing lines of credit. This scenario may adversely affect their ability to repay existing indebtedness and may impact the value of collateral. These developments, together with economic conditions, could materially impact our commercial real estate portfolio, particularly with respect to real estate with exposure to specific industries, and the value of certain collateral securing our loans. As a result, our financial condition, capital levels and results of operations could be adversely affected.

Balance Sheet

Total assets increased $296.2 million, or 16.5%, to $2.09 billion at June 30, 2020 compared to total assets of $1.80 billion at December 31, 2019 primarily due to increased net loans of $159.0 million with U.S. SBA PPP loans accounting for $129.4 million of the increase. In addition, total assets increased $28.2 million for investments, OREO decreased $4.1 million, cash increased $114.0 million and all other assets decreased $882,000. The Company’s loan pipeline was approximately $134.0 million at June 30, 2020.

Acquired loans at June 30, 2020 were $67.1 million or 4.5% of gross portfolio loans compared to and $77.1 million or 5.3% of gross portfolio loans at December 31, 2019. 

Non-owner occupied commercial real estate as a percentage of risk-based capital at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were $682 million or 345% and $639 million or 320%, respectively. Construction loans as a percentage of risk-based capital at June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were $163 million or 82% and $147 million or 74%, respectively. Regulatory loan concentrations increased in the first six months of 2020 due to commercial real estate growth and due to a reduction in total regulatory capital from the redemption of the $23.0 million of 6.25% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes in February 2020.

The Bank uses both retail deposits and wholesale funding. Retail deposits include municipal deposits. Wholesale funding includes short-term borrowings, long-term borrowings and brokered deposits. Retail deposits continue to be the most significant source of funds totaling $1,659.4 million or 95.2% of funding at June 30, 2020 compared to $1,511.6 million or 97.0% of funding at December 31, 2019. Wholesale funding, which consisted of FHLB advances and brokered deposits, was $83.3 million or 4.8% of funding at June 30, 2020 compared to $46.4 million or 3.0% of funding at December 31, 2019. The June 30, 2020 Federal Reserve Bank's PPPLF Program outstanding balance of $126.8 million is excluded from the preceding deposit and wholesale analysis. In addition to funding for operations, the Company had junior subordinated debentures of $12.0 million and subordinated notes of $23.0 million at December 31, 2019. On February 15, 2020, the Company redeemed the Company’s outstanding $23.0 million of 6.25% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes.

Total deposits increased $158.5 million or 10.49% (21.0% annualized) to $1,670.4 million at June 30, 2020 compared to $1,511.8 million at December 31, 2019. The $158.5 million increase was comprised of a $186.2 million increase to transaction deposits and a $27.7 million decrease to time deposits. Reciprocal deposits are included in transaction deposits and are used to maximize FDIC insurance available to our customers. Reciprocal deposits decreased $21.6 million to $328.4 million at June 30, 2020 compared to $350.0 million at December 31, 2019. 

The Bank typically experiences a reduction in transaction deposits during the first quarter as our business customers use transaction account balances to pay expenses and taxes accrued in the prior year. During the second quarter deposit balances generally increase through the end of the year. The Bank continued to attract additional retail deposit customers during the first six months of 2020. Non-interest-bearing demand deposits increased $115.0 million or 47.7% to $356.2 million (21.3% of deposits) at June 30, 2020 compared to $241.2 million (15.95% of deposits) at December 31, 2019.  The Bank increased on-balance sheet liquidity in the first and second quarters as deposit balances increased compared to the prior year. Customer deposit balances increased due to lower levels of consumer and business spending. We believe that deposit levels could decrease in future periods as a result of the distressed economic conditions in our market areas relating to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, it is not possible to project the impact with any precision at this time. We expected a temporary increase in deposit balances in the second quarter of 2020 due to our customers' participation in the SBA PPP loan program.

As of June 30, 2020, the Company had loans and securities pledged or in safekeeping at FHLB with a collateral value of $526.7 million. The Company had $296.9 million in loan collateral and $229.8 million of AFS securities collateral, partially offset by FHLB outstanding advances of $72.3 million, FHLB letters of credit of $43.0 million, and amounts pledged to municipalities of $53.7 million, resulting in total available collateral for FHLB borrowings of $357.7 million at June 30, 2020. The Bank used the Federal Reserve PPP lending facility to fund SBA PPP loans to ensure available borrowing availability from the FHLB was not impacted. Federal Reserve PPPLF advances are non-recourse and receive 100% value for the pledged PPP loan collateral. The SBA PPP loans that are pledged to the PPPLF are excluded from the leverage ratio according to regulatory policy as explained below.

During the last two years, the Company's reliance on wholesale funding decreased from 18.63% of assets at December 31, 2017 to 3.98% of assets at June 30, 2020. The Company’s net portfolio loan to deposit ratio decreased from 95.6% at December 31, 2019 to 88.5% at June 30, 2020.

On December 31, 2019, the Company issued a total of 312,747 shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 in a private placement offering. The Company received net proceeds of $10.6 million after deal expenses. On February 15, 2020, the Company used the proceeds and a cash dividend from the Bank to redeem the Company’s outstanding $23.0 million of 6.25% fixed-to-floating rate subordinated notes. The redemption of the $23.0 million in subordinated notes in February 2020 reduced interest expense by approximately $1.4 million on an annualized basis. The annualized positive impact on net interest margin is estimated to be between eight and nine basis points.

Total stockholders’ equity increased $7.9 million, or 4.4%, to $189.4 million at June 30, 2020 compared to $181.5 million at December 31, 2019. This increase primarily resulted from net income of $6.2 million, an increase in accumulated other comprehensive income of $3.0 million and net stock related activities in connection with stock-based compensation and ESOP activity of $147,000. These increases to stockholders’ equity were partially offset by decreases due to common dividends paid of $1.4 million. The Company’s ratio of tangible common equity to tangible assets decreased to 8.50% at June 30, 2020 from 9.44% at December 31, 2019 (see Non-GAAP reconciliation schedules). The Company’s Common Equity Tier 1 (“CET1”) ratio was 11.12% at June 30, 2020 and 11.11% at  December 31, 2019. The Company remains well capitalized at June 30, 2020 with a Tier 1 capital to average assets ("leverage ratio") of 9.76% at June 30, 2020 compared to 10.08% at December 31, 2019. In April 2020, banking regulators issued an interim final rule that excluded U.S. SBA PPP loans pledged under the PPPLF from the calculation of the leverage ratio. In addition, the interim final rule excluded U.S. SBA PPP loans from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios by assigning a zero percent risk weight.

Income Statement

Net Income

The Company reported net income for the three months ended June 30, 2020 of $3.5 million or diluted earnings per share of $0.59 compared to net income of $3.6 million or $0.65 per diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The Company’s ROAA and ROACE were 0.69% and 0.76% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 0.84% and 8.99% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The $177,000 decrease to net income in the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same quarter in 2019 was due to increased provision for loan losses and noninterest expense, partially offset by increased net interest income and noninterest income. Decreases to income before taxes were partially offset by decreased income tax expense of $258,000 for the comparable periods. The decrease in income tax expense was due to a change in the Company's state tax apportionment approach that was implemented in the first quarter of 2020.

The Company reported net income for the six months ended June 30, 2020 of $6.2 million or diluted earnings per share of $1.05 compared to net income of $7.5 million or $1.35 per diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The Company’s ROAA and ROACE were 0.71% and 0.82% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 0.95% and 1.11% for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The $1.3 million decrease to net income in the first six months of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 was due to increased provision for loan losses and noninterest expense, partially offset by increased net interest income and noninterest income. Decreases to income before taxes were partially offset by decreased income tax expense of $1.6 million for the comparable periods. The decrease in income tax expense was due to a change in the Company's state tax apportionment approach and included adjustments in the first quarter of 2020 for amended income tax filings of the Company and Bank.

The Company's effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 decreased to 14.8% compared to 26.5% for the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a change in the Company's state tax apportionment approach which was implemented during the first quarter of 2020 and included the impact of amended income tax filings of the Company and Bank. Management evaluated the tax position and determined the change in tax position qualified as a change in estimate under FASB ASC Section 250. The following table shows a breakdown of income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020 split between the apportionment adjustment and a normalized 2020 income tax provision:

    Six Months Ended June 30, 2020
(dollars in thousands)   Tax Provision   Effective Tax Rate
Income tax apportionment adjustment   $ (743 )     (10.2 )%
Income taxes before apportionment adjustment   1,822       25.0 %
Income tax (benefit) expense as reported   $ 1,079       14.8 %
         
Income before income taxes   $ 7,277        

The Company’s consolidated effective tax rate is expected to be between 25.40% and 26.06% for the third and fourth quarters of 2020.

Net Interest Income

Net interest income increased 14.8% or $1.97 million to $15.22 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $13.26 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. Net interest margin of 3.34% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 increased one basis point from 3.33% for the comparable period. The increase in net interest income and static net interest margin resulted primarily from significant decreases in interest expense from lower funding costs as increased interest income from larger average balances to interest-earning assets nearly offset decreased interest income from lower asset yields. Interest income decreased $480,000 for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the second quarter of 2019. The decrease in interest income resulted from larger average balances of interest-earning assets contributing $2.3 million in additional interest income offset by lower interest yields accounting for a $2.7 million reduction in interest income. Interest expense decreased $2.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the second quarter of 2019. Lower interest rates accounted for $2.4 million of the decrease in interest expense and decreases in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities and changes in the funding mix contributed $74,000.

Net interest income increased 12.5% or $3.3 million to $29.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $26.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Net interest margin of 3.39% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased seven basis points from 3.32% for the comparable period. The increase in net interest income and net interest margin resulted primarily from significant decreases in interest expense from lower funding costs as increased interest income from larger average balances to interest-earning assets nearly offset decreased interest income from lower asset yields. Interest income decreased $238,000 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the first six months of 2019. The decrease in interest income resulted from larger average balances of interest-earning assets contributing $3.5 million in additional interest income offset by lower interest yields accounting for a $3.7 million reduction in interest income. Interest expense decreased $3.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period of 2019. Lower interest rates accounted for $3.0 million of the decrease in interest expense and decreases in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities and changes in the funding mix contributed $516,000.

The sharp decline in interest rates during the first six months of 2020 not only reduced interest income on floating-rate commercial loans and liquid interest-earning assets, but it also reduced competitive pressures and depositor expectations concerning deposit interest rates. Due to a slightly liability-sensitive balance sheet, the Company experienced increasing net interest margin in the first quarter of 2020 and stable margins during the second quarter of 2020 after adjusting for PPP loan and funding activity. Net interest margin was negatively impacted from the funding of U.S. SBA PPP loans of $129.4 million which resulted in approximately eight basis points of net interest margin compression for the three months ended June 30, 2020. Some compression of our net interest margin is foreseeable in the second half of 2020 with the possibility that interest-earning assets will reprice faster than interest-bearing liabilities. Conversely, PPP loan forgiveness will positively impact margins and net interest income in the quarter(s) of forgiveness with the recognition of remaining net deferred fees.

Fluctuations in net interest income can result from the combination of changes in the average balances of asset and liability categories and changes in interest rates. Interest rates earned and paid are affected by general economic conditions, particularly changes in market interest rates, and by competitive factors, government policies and actions of regulatory authorities. The Federal Reserve decreased the targeted federal funds rate by a total of 75 basis points in the second half of 2019. In addition, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Federal Reserve decreased the targeted federal funds interest rate by a total of 150 basis points in March 2020. These decreases impact the comparability of net interest income between 2019 and 2020.

The below table provides information on the impact of changes in volume and rate for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019: 

Three Months Ended June 30, 2020 compared to June 30, 2019

(1) Average balance includes non-accrual loans. There are no tax equivalency adjustments. There was $181,000 and $209,000 of accretion interest during the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The below table provides information on the impact of changes in volume and rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019:

(1) Loan average balance includes non-accrual loans. There are no tax equivalency adjustments. There was $403,000 and $381,000 of accretion interest during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income of $2.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 increased by $1.0 million compared to $1.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was due to $112,000 in net gains on the sale of securities, $1.0 million of interest rate protection referral fee income and partially offset by decreased service charge income of $119,000. During 2019, the Bank added a new product and began referring customers to a third-party financial institution that offers interest rate protection for the length of a loan. Noninterest income as a percentage of average assets was 0.45% and 0.29%, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.

Noninterest income of $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 increased by $2.1 million compared to $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase was due to $441,000 in net gains on the sale of securities, a $1.5 million increase in interest rate protection referral fee income and increased service charge income of $133,000. Increased service charges were due to a larger customer base and the growth in organic deposits over the last two years. In addition, the Bank revamped its retail deposit account product offerings during the second half of 2019 and focused on adding more consumer checking accounts. Noninterest income as a percentage of average assets was 0.46% and 0.27%, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. The COVID-19 crisis has impacted spending habits of customers and reduced service fee income as well as curtailed expected commercial loan volume which impacts interest rate protection agreement referral fee opportunities. The economic environment could impact future noninterest income.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense increased $281,000 or 3.1% to $9.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $9.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in noninterest expense for the comparable periods was primarily due to  increased OREO expenses of $668,000. Operating expenses decreased $220,000 for the comparable periods as increases in data processing and FDIC insurance were offset by lower professional fees and other expenses. Compensation and benefits decreased $167,000 for the comparable periods. Compensation and benefits were lower in the second quarter of 2020 due to the allocation of $406,00 in deferred costs for PPP loans originated during the second quarter of 2020. The Company's projected quarterly expense run rate for the remainder of 2020 remains between $9.2-$9.4 million.

During the second quarter of 2020, OREO expenses increased due to increased valuation allowances and the disposal of an office building with a $1.6 million carrying value. Adjusted noninterest expense, which excludes OREO related expenses, decreased $387,000 to $8.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $8.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2019. 

The Company’s efficiency ratio was 53.75% for the three months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 62.82% for the three months ended June 30, 2019. The operating efficiency ratio, which excludes securities gains and losses, OREO gains and losses and other non-core activities, was 47.87% and 60.11% for the same periods (see Non-GAAP reconciliation schedules). The Company’s GAAP net operating expense ratio was 1.43% at June 30, 2020 compared to 1.83% at June 30, 2019. The non-GAAP net operating expense ratio, which excludes securities gains and losses, OREO gains and losses and other non-core activities, was 1.24% and 1.74% for the same periods (see Non-GAAP reconciliation schedules). The efficiency and net operating expense ratios have improved (decreased) as the Company has been able to generate more noninterest income while controlling expense growth.

The following is a summary of noninterest expense: 

    Three Months Ended June 30,        
(dollars in thousands)   2020   2019   $ Change   % Change
Compensation and benefits   $ 4,714     $ 4,881     $ (167 )     (3.4 )%
OREO valuation allowance and expenses   1,100     432     668       154.6 %
Operating expenses   3,583     3,803     (220 )     (5.8 )%
Total noninterest expense   $ 9,397     $ 9,116     $ 281       3.1 %

Noninterest expense increased $1.6 million or 8.9% to $19.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $17.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in noninterest expense for the comparable periods was primarily due to increased compensation and benefits of $218,000 and OREO expenses of $1.4 million. Operating expenses decreased $53,000 for the comparable periods as increases in data processing, professional fees and FDIC insurance were offset by decreases in all other operating expenses including occupancy, advertising, depreciation and other expenses. Adjusted noninterest expense, which excludes OREO related expenses increased $165,000 to $17.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to $17.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2019. 

The Company’s efficiency ratio was 56.19% for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to 61.24% for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The operating efficiency ratio, which excludes securities gains and losses, OREO gains and losses and other non-core activities, was 51.49% and 59.79% for the same periods (see Non-GAAP reconciliation schedules). The Company’s GAAP net operating expense ratio was 1.55% at June 30, 2020 compared to 1.78% at June 30, 2019. The non-GAAP net operating expense ratio, which excludes securities gains and losses, OREO gains and losses and other non-core activities, was 1.41% and 1.74% for the same periods (see Non-GAAP reconciliation schedules). The efficiency and net operating expense ratios have improved (decreased) as the Company has been able to generate more noninterest income while controlling expense growth.

The following is a summary of noninterest expense:
