NEW YORK, Nov. 02, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PDL Community Bancorp (the “Company”) (NASDAQ: PDLB), the financial holding company for Ponce Bank (the “Bank”) and Mortgage World Bankers, Inc. (“Mortgage World”), reported net income of $4.0 million, or $0.24 per basic and diluted share, for the third quarter of 2020, compared to a net loss of ($571,000), or ($0.03) per basic and diluted share, for the prior quarter and net income of $709,000, or $0.04 per basic and diluted share, for the third quarter of 2019.

Ponce Bank is a federal stock savings association with 13 branches in the New York City metropolitan area, including one in Union City, New Jersey. The Bank is designated a Minority Depository Institution, a Community Development Financial Institution and a certified U.S. Small Business Administration lender. Mortgage World is a licensed mortgage lender in five states. As a Federal Housing Administration (“FHA”) approved Title II lender, Mortgage World originates and sells to investors single family loans that are guaranteed by the FHA, as well as conventional mortgages.

The Company’s net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $2.2 million, or $0.13 per basic and diluted share, compared to net income of $2.3 million, or $0.13 per basic and diluted share, for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. This represented a decrease in net income of (4.4%).

Carlos P. Naudon, the Company’s President and CEO, noted “2020 continues to be a year of investing – in the safety of our people and the future of our organization and our communities – with the clear goal of enhancing stakeholder values. Much of this investment consists of one-time, non-recurring expenditures. Although COVID-19 pandemic constrained us, we were able to grow our Company to $1.3 billion in assets, and continue our key investments: the implementation of GPS, our Salesforce based CRM, spending $1.3 million in one-time costs; meeting the needs of Ponce Bankers by incurring non-recurring costs of $852,000 to maintain their jobs, temporarily enhance their benefits and protect them from COVID-19 pandemic; advancing our ability to operate electronically, without paper, by investing $982,000 in electronic imaging; and, in addition to the foregoing non-recurring expenses, protecting our asset quality by increasing ALLL by $2.0 million in response to plausible COVID-19 pandemic repercussions. We were able to offset the combined one-time expenses and the increase in ALLL of $5.1 million with the $4.4 million gain recognized from the sale of the real property associated with a former branch, as we further unlock the hidden values in our assets.”

Steven A. Tsavaris, the Company’s Executive Chairman, added “the closing of the Company’s $1.8 million acquisition of Mortgage World in July and its contribution to our earnings of $599,000 in third quarter of 2020 reflects the Company’s potential quick payback, although the results do not reflect the expected integration of the Bank’s and Mortgage World’s operations and sales capabilities. We are pleased to continue to build shareholders’ value by repurchasing shares. As of October 28, 2020 a total of 360,184 shares have been repurchased in 2020.”

The increase in non-interest expense was offset by decreases of $18,000 in marketing and promotional expenses and $7,000 in regulatory dues. The increase of $217,000 in professional fees was mainly attributable to an increase in consulting fees of $288,000 and an increase in legal fees of $81,000, offset by a decrease in professional services of $134,000 related to the document imaging project adopted in late 2019. Included in non-interest expense for the three months ended September 30, 2020 is $330,000 of additional expenses incurred as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Asset Quality

Total non-performing assets were $11.0 million, or 0.86% of total assets, at September 30, 2020, a decrease of $597,000 from $11.6 million, or 0.95% of total assets, at June 30, 2020 and a decrease of $620,000 from $11.6 million, or 1.10% of total assets, at December 31, 2019. Comparing non-performing assets at September 30, 2020 to June 30, 2020, total non-accruals inclusive of troubled debt restructured (“TDR”) loans related to nonresidential loans decreased by $526,000 and 1-4 family residential loans decreased by $281,000. Comparing nonperforming assets at September 30, 2020 to December 31, 2019, total non-accruals inclusive of TDR loans related to nonresidential loans increased by $284,000, offset by a decrease in construction and land loans of $1.1 million.

The Company continues to assess the economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on borrowers and believes that it is likely that the pandemic will be a detriment to their 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. The allowance for loan losses was $14.4 million, or 1.28% of total loans (total loans include $86.2 million of PPP loans) at September 30, 2020, compared to $13.8 million, or 1.27% of total loans, at June 30, 2020 and $12.3 million, or 1.28% of total loans, at December 31, 2019. Excluding PPP loans, the allowance for loan losses was 1.39% of total loans at September 30, 2020 and 1.38% of total loans at June 30, 2020. Net recoveries totaled $1,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, $6,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 and $74,000 for the quarter ended December 31, 2019.

Through October 20, 2020, 419 loans aggregating $381.7 million had requested forbearance primarily consisting of the deferral of principal, interest, and escrow payments for a period of three months. Of those 419 loans, 323 loans aggregating $290.7 million are no longer in deferment and are now performing. Of the 419 loans, 96 in the amount of $91.0 million remained in deferment. Of the 96 loans in deferment, 92 loans in the amount of $87.1 million are in renewed forbearance and four loans in the amount of $3.9 million are in their original forbearance. All of these loans had been performing in accordance with their contractual obligations prior to the granting of the initial forbearance. Forbearance periods currently do not extend into 2021. The Company actively monitors the business activities of borrowers in forbearance and seeks to determine their capacity to resume payments as contractually obligated upon the termination of the forbearance period. The initial and extended forbearances are short-term modifications made on a good faith basis in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and in furtherance of governmental policies.

Balance Sheet

Total assets increased $223.6 million, or 21.2%, to $1.3 billion at September 30, 2020 from $1.1 billion at December 31, 2019. The increase in total assets is mainly attributable to increases in net loans receivable and mortgage loans held for sale at fair value of $165.3 million, of which $86.2 million related to PPP loans, cash and cash equivalents of $48.4 million, other assets of $8.2 million, accrued interest receivable of $6.0 million, investments in other banks of $2.7 million and FHLBNY stock of $679,000, offset by decreases in available-for-sale securities of $7.0 million, $633,000 in net premises and equipment and deferred taxes of $138,000.

Cash and cash equivalents increased $48.4 million, or 174.9%, to $76.1 million at September 30, 2020, compared to $27.7 million at December 31, 2019. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was primarily the result of increases of $191.2 million in net deposits, of which $41.9 million is related to net PPP funding, $17.3 million from maturities and calls of available-for-sale securities, $12.9 million in net advances from FHLBNY and $4.7 million proceeds from the sale of real property. The increase in cash and cash equivalents was offset by increases of $165.3 million in net loans receivable and mortgage loans held for sale at fair value, of which $86.2 million related to PPP loans, $10.1 million in purchases of available-for-sale securities and the $1.8 million purchase price related to the acquisition of Mortgage World.

Net loans receivable at September 30, 2020 increased $153.2 million, or 16.0%, to $1.1 billion from $ 955.7 million at December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily due to increases of $85.8 million, or 789.0%, in business loans, of which $86.2 million related to PPP loans, $34.5 million, or 13.8%, in multifamily residential loans, $16.6 million, or 4.2%, in 1-4 family residential loans, $10.5 million, or 5.1%, in nonresidential properties loans, $8.6 million, or 696.6%, in consumer loans and $412,000, or 0.4%, in construction and land loans. The increase in net loans receivable was offset by a decrease of $1.2 million, or 60.1%, in net deferred loan origination costs. The increase in the allowance for losses on loans of $2.1 million, substantially related to the COVID-19 pandemic, also decreased net loans receivable.

Total deposits increased $191.2 million, or 24.4%, to $973.2 million at September 30, 2020 from $782.0 million at December 31, 2019. The increase in deposits was mainly attributable to increases of $124.7 million, or 44.1%, in NOW, money market, reciprocal deposits and savings accounts, $76.8 million, or 70.1%, in demand deposits, of which $41.9 million is related to net PPP funding, offset by a decrease of $10.3 million, or 2.7%, in total certificates of deposit, which includes brokered certificates of deposit and listing service deposits. The $124.7 million increase in NOW, money market, reciprocal deposits and savings accounts was mainly attributable to increases of $62.2 million, or 71.7%, in money market accounts, $60.7 million, or 127.4%, in reciprocal deposits and a $5.1 million, or 4.4%, in savings accounts, offset by a decrease of $3.2 million, or 9.9%, in NOW/IOLA accounts.

Net advances from the FHLBNY increased $12.9 million, or 12.3%, to $117.3 million at September 30, 2020 from $104.4 million at December 31, 2019. The net increase in FHLBNY advances has a weighted average rate of 0.9%.

Total stockholders’ equity remained substantially the same, $158.4 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The $28,000 decrease in stockholders’ equity was mainly attributable to $3.8 million in stock repurchases, offset by increases of $2.2 million in net income, $1.0 million related to restricted stock units and stock options, $353,000 related to the Company’s Employee Stock Ownership Plan and $148,000 related to unrealized gains on available-for-sale securities.

The Company adopted a share repurchase program effective March 25, 2019 which expired on September 24, 2019.
