Northrim BanCorp Earns $10.1 Million, or $1.76 Per Diluted Share, in Third Quarter 2022

ANCHORAGE, Alaska, Oct. 26, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Northrim BanCorp, Inc. (NASDAQ:NRIM) (“Northrim” or the “Company”) today reported net income of $10.1 million, or $1.76 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $4.8 million, or $0.83 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2022, and $8.9 million, or $1.42 per diluted share, in the third quarter a year ago. The increase in third quarter 2022 profitability as compared to the prior periods was primarily due to an increase in net interest income.

“We have continued to increase our core loans and expand our deposit market share throughout the state which has helped us generate increased earnings,” said Joe Schierhorn, President and Chief Executive Officer Northrim BanCorp, Inc. “The rising interest rate environment has also benefited loan yields and our cash and securities portfolios.”

3rd Quarter Update:

  • Growth and Paycheck Protection Program:
    • In 2020 and 2021, Northrim funded a total of nearly 5,800 PPP loans totaling approximately $612.6 million to both existing and new customers. Management estimates that Northrim funded approximately 24% of the number and 32% of the value of all Alaska PPP second round loans.

    • As of September 30, 2022, PPP has resulted in 2,344 new customers totaling $76.0 million in core loans (excluding PPP), and $141.9 million in new deposit balances.
  • Customer Accommodations: The Company implemented assistance to help its customers experiencing financial challenges as a result of COVID-19 in addition to participation in PPP lending. The total outstanding principal balance of loan modifications due to the impacts of COVID-19 as of September 30, 2022 was $8.4 million, down from $23.6 million as of June 30, 2022 and $57.4 million as of September 30, 2021.

  • Provision for Credit Losses: Northrim booked a benefit to the provision for credit losses of $353,000 for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. This compares to a provision for credit losses of $463,000 during the previous quarter and a $1.1 million benefit for credit losses in the third quarter a year ago. The provision for the current quarter was recorded using a discounted cash flow model under the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) methodology and reflects expected lifetime credit losses on loans and off-balance sheet unfunded loan commitments.
  • Credit Quality: Nonaccrual loans, net of government guarantees decreased to $6.5 million at September 30, 2022, compared to $7.3 million in the previous quarter, and $11.5 million at September 30, 2021. Net adversely classified loans decreased to $7.6 million at September 30, 2022, compared to $8.8 million in the second quarter of 2022 and $17.4 million in the third quarter a year ago.

Alaska Economic Update
(Note: sources for information included in this section are included on page 11.)

The Alaska economy is experiencing many of the same issues seen throughout the rest of the United States. Mark Edwards, EVP Chief Credit Officer and Bank Economist, summarizes, “jobs are recovering from pandemic lows, inflation is impacting business activity, and incomes are rising, but not at the same pace as inflation. The housing market was red hot last year, and home prices are still high, but the number of units sold is starting to decline as interest rates rise rapidly. Alaska is enjoying an improvement in tourism activity and oil prices remain very healthy, near or above $100 a barrel for most of the year.”

The Alaska Department of Labor (“DOL”) has released data through August of 2022. The DOL reports total payroll jobs in Alaska increased 3.1% or 10,200 jobs compared to August of 2021. The Leisure and Hospitality sector showed the fastest year over year increase of 10.3%. The Oil and Gas sector has benefited from high energy prices and new exploration activity, resulting in an increase of 400 jobs since August of 2021, a 5.9% increase. Other sectors showing improvement over the last 12 months include Trade, Warehousing, and Utilities (+6.2%), Other Services (+3.7%); Construction (+3.2%); Professional and Business Services (+2.9%); Retail (+2.3%); and Financial Activities (+1.8%). The only private sector to decline year over year was Information (-2.1%), a loss of 100 jobs. The Government sector was up by 1.2%, an increase of 900 jobs through August 2022 year over year.

Alaska’s Gross State Product (“GSP”) in the second quarter of 2022, was estimated to be $64.3 billion in nominal value and $49 billion in inflation adjusted “real” value, according to the Federal Bureau of Economic Analysis (“BEA”). Real GSP decreased in 40 of the 50 U.S. states, including Alaska, in the second quarter of 2022. Alaska’s decrease was 0.9% compared to a U.S. average decrease of 0.6%. The BEA also calculated Alaska’s annualized and seasonally adjusted personal income at $49.3 billion in the second quarter of 2022, an improvement of 5.2% over the prior quarter. The national average was an increase of 5.8% for the same period according to the BEA.

The price of Alaska North Slope (“ANS”) crude oil began 2022 with a monthly average of $86.50 a barrel in January and surpassed $100 in March after the war in Ukraine began. Prices remained above $100 through August after reaching a monthly average high of $120.17 in June. ANS averaged $92.42 in September and the most recent daily price available at the time of this writing was $97.97 on October 7, 2022.

According to the Mortgage Bankers Association, Alaska’s home mortgage delinquency rate in the second quarter of 2022 was 3.58% compared to the national average rate of 3.77%. The Mortgage Bankers Association survey reported that the mortgage foreclosure inventory in Alaska in the second quarter of 2022 was 0.64% and the national average was 0.59%.

According to the Alaska Multiple Listing Services, the average sales price of a single family home in Anchorage rose 6.9% in 2021 to $424,148. In the first nine months of 2022, prices climbed another 7.5% to $456,125. Average sales prices in the Matanuska Susitna Borough rose 15.6% in 2021 and another 10% in the first nine months of 2022 to $382,721. These two markets represent where the vast majority of the Bank’s residential lending activity occurs.

The number of housing units sold in Anchorage was up significantly in 2021 by 11.2%, as reported by the Alaska Multiple Listing Services. Starting in March of 2022, the number of homes sold has been lower each month compared to the same month of the prior year. The number of units sold in Anchorage is 14.4% lower this year when comparing January to September of 2021 to 2022. The Matanuska Susitna Borough also had strong sales activity in 2021, up 11.7%. In the first nine months of 2022, the number of units sold in the Matanuska Susitna Borough was 3.4% lower than the same period in 2021.

Review of Income Statement

Consolidated Income Statement

In the third quarter of 2022, Northrim generated a ROAA of 1.52% and a ROAE of 18.18%, compared to 0.74% and 8.58%, respectively, in the second quarter of 2022 and 1.40% and 14.47%, respectively, in the third quarter a year ago.

Net Interest Income/Net Interest Margin

Net interest income increased 18% to $26.3 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $22.2 million in the second quarter of 2022 and increased 29% compared to $20.4 million in the third quarter of 2021. Interest income continues to benefit from the amortization of PPP loan fees and the full recognition of the deferred PPP loan fees upon forgiveness by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”). During the third quarter of 2022, Northrim received $21.1 million in loan forgiveness through the SBA, compared to $33.7 million in loan forgiveness during the prior quarter, resulting in total net PPP fee income of $686,000 and $1.3 million, respectively. As of September 30, 2022, there was $390,000 of net deferred PPP fee income remaining.

NIMTE* was 4.27% in the third quarter of 2022 compared to 3.70% in the preceding quarter and 3.47% in the third quarter a year ago. NIMTE* increased 57 basis points in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the prior quarter and 80 basis points compared to the third quarter of 2021 primarily due to higher yields on portfolio loans, investments, and interest bearing deposits in other banks. The weighted average interest rate for new loans booked in the third quarter of 2022 was 5.76% compared to 4.66% in the second quarter of 2022 and 4.04% in the third quarter a year ago. Additionally, the Company purchased long-term investments in the third quarter of 2022 with a weighted average yield of 4.01% compared to 3.22% in the second quarter of 2022 and 0.98% in the third quarter a year ago. Also notable during the third quarter of 2022 was the impact of the recovery of nonaccrual interest income which increased NIMTE* by 19 basis points. Additionally, the impact of SBA PPP loan fees and interest on net interest income, increased our NIMTE* by 10 basis points during the third quarter of this year compared to what our NIMTE* would have been if we had not made any SBA PPP loans. “We expect our net interest margin to continue to improve with expected increases in interest rates during the fourth quarter of 2022, as nearly 75% of our loan portfolio has adjusting rates and our large cash position will reprice immediately upon any rate increases,” said Jed Ballard, Chief Financial Officer. Northrim’s NIMTE* continues to remain above the peer average posted by the S&P U.S. Small Cap Bank Index with total market capitalization between $250 million and $1 billion as of June 30, 20221.

 

1As of June 30, 2022, the S&P U.S. Small Cap Bank Index tracked 277 banks with total common market capitalization between $250 million to $1B for the following ratios: NIMTE* of 3.07%.

Provision for Credit Losses

Northrim recorded a benefit to the provision for credit losses of $353,000 in the third quarter of 2022, which includes a $550,000 provision for credit losses on unfunded commitments and a benefit to the provision for credit losses on loans of $903,000. This compares to a provision for credit losses of $463,000 in the second quarter of 2022, and a benefit to the provision for credit losses of $1.1 million in the third quarter a year ago. The $903,000 benefit to the provision for credit losses on loans in the third quarter of 2022 is largely attributable to the receipt of $1.4 million net loan recoveries in the third quarter which were only partially offset by an increase in expected loss rates resulting from an increase in risks associated with the economy, as well as an increase in unfunded commitments. Unfunded commitments to extend credit increased to $424.5 million at September 30, 2022 from $385.1 million at June 30, 2022. The allowance for credit losses on loans was 0.93% as a percentage of loans, net of guarantees as of September 30, 2022 compared to 0.90% as of June 30, 2022 and 1.16% a year ago.

Nonperforming loans, net of government guarantees, decreased during the quarter to $6.5 million at September 30, 2022, compared to $7.3 million at June 30, 2022, and decreased compared to $11.5 million at September 30, 2021.

The allowance for credit losses was 185% of nonperforming loans, net of government guarantees, at the end of the third quarter of 2022, compared to 158% three months earlier and 120% a year ago.

Other Operating Income

In addition to home mortgage lending, Northrim has interests in other businesses that complement its core community banking activities, including purchased receivables financing and wealth management. Other operating income contributed $8.7 million, or 25% of total third quarter 2022 revenues, as compared to $7.8 million, or 26% of revenues in the second quarter of 2022, and $12.7 million, or 38% of revenues in the third quarter of 2021. The increase in other operating income in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to the preceding quarter is primarily the result of an increase in the value of marketable equity securities. The decrease in other operating income in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to the third quarter a year ago was due primarily to a lower volume of mortgage activity.

Other Operating Expenses

Operating expenses were $22.3 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $23.2 million in the second quarter of 2022, and $22.5 million in the third quarter of 2021. The decrease in other operating expenses in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2022 is primarily due to decreased salaries and other personnel expense that includes lower mortgage commission expense due to lower mortgage volume, as well as decreased marketing expense due to the timing of payments for charitable contributions.

Income Tax Provision

In the third quarter of 2022, Northrim recorded $2.9 million in state and federal income tax expense for an effective tax rate of 22.4%, compared to $1.5 million, or 24.1% in the second quarter of 2022 and $2.8 million, or 23.9% in the third quarter a year ago. The decrease in the tax rate in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to the second quarter of 2022 is primarily the result of an increase in tax credits and tax exempt interest income as a percentage of pre-tax income.

Community Banking

Net interest income in the Community Banking segment totaled $25.7 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $21.6 million in the second quarter of 2022 and $19.7 million in the third quarter of 2021. Net interest income benefited from $735,000 of PPP income in the third quarter of 2022, and $1.5 million of PPP income in the second quarter of 2022. As of September 30, 2022, there was $390,000 of unearned loan fees net of costs related to round one and round two PPP loans.

In the recent deposit market share data from the FDIC for the period from June 30, 2021, to June 30, 2022, Northrim’s deposit market share in Alaska increased to $2.4 billion, or 13.95% of total Alaska deposits as of June 30, 2022 from $2.2 billion, or 13.00% of total Alaska deposits as of June 30, 2021. Northrim’s deposits grew 9% during this period while total deposits in Alaska were up 1% during the same period.

Home Mortgage Lending

During the third quarter of 2022, mortgage loan volume decreased to $168.8 million, of which 93% was for home purchases, compared to $191.0 million and 90% of loans funded for home purchases in the second quarter of 2022, and decreased as compared to $283.2 million, of which 77% was for home purchases in the third quarter of 2021. The rising interest rate environment has caused the housing market to slow down and also resulted in fewer refinances compared to the prior year and decreased the yields on mortgage loans sold in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to the prior quarter and the third quarter a year ago.

The net change in fair value of mortgage servicing rights increased mortgage banking income by $145,000 during the third quarter of 2022, primarily due to a reduction in estimated prepayment speeds, which was only partially offset by an increase in the discount rate used to value the mortgage servicing rights, which was generally caused by the increase in mortgage rates, compared to a decrease of $250,000 for the second quarter of 2022 and a decrease of $1.5 million for the third quarter of 2021.

As of September 30, 2022, Northrim serviced 3,347 loans in its $859.3 million home-mortgage-servicing portfolio, a 5% increase compared to the $818.3 million serviced for the second quarter of 2022, and a 15% increase from the $750.3 million serviced a year ago. Delinquencies in the loan servicing portfolio totaled 1.1% at September 30, 2022, compared to 2.8% at September 30, 2021. Mortgage servicing revenue contributed $2.1 million to revenues in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $1.9 million in the second quarter of 2022, and $2.4 million in the third quarter of 2021.

The Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Residential Mortgage, LLC (“RML”), announced its expansion into Arizona and Colorado. “This is a wonderful opportunity to bring RML’s mission to find the mortgage that best fits our clients’ needs to new states,” said Mike Baldwin, RML President.

Balance Sheet Review

Northrim’s total assets were $2.72 billion at September 30, 2022, up 4% from the preceding quarter and up 4% from a year ago. Northrim’s loan-to-deposit ratio was 58% at September 30, 2022, down slightly from 60% at June 30, 2022, and 63% at September 30, 2021.

Liquidity levels remain high with interest bearing deposits in other banks at $386.6 million, representing 15% of interest-earning assets as of September 30, 2022, compared to 19% at September 30, 2021.

Average interest-earning assets were $2.47 billion in the third quarter of 2022, up 2% from $2.43 billion in the second quarter of 2022 and up 5% from $2.35 billion in the third quarter a year ago. The average yield on interest-earning assets was 4.47% in the third quarter of 2022, up from 3.83% in the preceding quarter and 3.62% in the third quarter a year ago.

Average investment securities increased to $678.6 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $589.6 million in the second quarter of 2022 and $389.6 million in the third quarter a year ago. The average net tax equivalent yield on the securities portfolio was 1.98% for the third quarter of 2022, up from 1.59% in the preceding quarter and up from 1.20% in the year ago quarter. The average estimated duration of the investment portfolio at September 30, 2022, was approximately three and a half years down from approximately four and a half years a year ago. Unrealized losses, net of tax, on available for sale securities increased by $12.5 million in the third quarter of 2022 resulting in a total unrealized loss of $32.4 million due to rising interest rates.

“Core loans, excluding PPP loans, increased $22.1 million during the third quarter of 2022 as compared to the second quarter of 2022, as new customer relationships continued to expand and grow,” said Mike Huston, Northrim Bank President and Chief Lending Officer. At September 30, 2022, commercial loans represented 41% of total loans, PPP loans represented 1% of total loans, commercial real estate owner occupied loans comprised 16% of total loans, commercial real estate non-owner occupied loans comprised 30% of total loans, and construction loans made up 8% of total loans. Portfolio loans were $1.41 billion at September 30, 2022, up slightly from the preceding quarter and down 3% from a year ago. Core loans, excluding the impact from PPP, were $1.40 billion at September 30, 2022 up 2% from the preceding quarter and up 12% from a year ago. Average portfolio loans in the third quarter of 2022 were $1.41 billion, which was up 1% from the preceding quarter and down 4% from a year ago. Yields on average portfolio loans in the third quarter of 2022 increased to 6.05% from 5.52% in the second quarter of 2022 and increased from 5.19% in the third quarter of 2021. The increase in the yield on portfolio loans in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2022 and the third quarter a year ago is primarily due to loan repricing due to the increases in interest rates and new loans booked at higher rates due to changes in the interest rate environment.

As of September 30, 2022, Northrim customers had received forgiveness through the SBA on 5,771 PPP loans totaling $603.1 million, of which 364 PPP loans totaling $21.1 million were forgiven in the third quarter of 2022, 417 PPP loans totaling $33.7 million were forgiven in the second quarter of 2022, 537 PPP loans totaling $56.9 million were forgiven in the first quarter of 2022, and 4,451 PPP loans totaling $491.4 million were forgiven in 2021. Of the PPP loans forgiven in the third quarter of 2022, 286 loans totaling $20.9 million related to PPP round two. As of September 30, 2022, nearly 100% of the number of PPP round one loans funded and 98% of the number of PPP round two loans funded have been forgiven.

Alaskans continue to account for substantially all of Northrim’s deposit base, which is primarily made up of low-cost transaction accounts. Total deposits were $2.44 billion at September 30, 2022, up 4% from $2.34 billion at June 30, 2022, and up 6% from $2.30 billion a year ago. At September 30, 2022, 68% of total deposits were held in business accounts and 32% of deposit balances were held in consumer accounts. Demand deposits increased by 4% from the prior quarter and decreased 1% year-over-year to $861.4 million at September 30, 2022. Average interest-bearing deposits were up slightly to $1.52 billion with an average cost of 0.28% in the third quarter of 2022, compared to $1.51 billion and an average cost of 0.16% in the second quarter of 2022, and up 10% compared to $1.38 billion and an average cost of 0.19% in the third quarter of 2021.

Shareholders’ equity was $210.7 million, or $37.09 book value per share, at September 30, 2022, compared to $215.3 million, or $37.90 book value per share, at June 30, 2022 and $242.5 million, or $39.25 book value per share, a year ago. Tangible book value per share* was $34.27 at September 30, 2022, compared to $35.08 at June 30, 2022, and $36.66 per share a year ago. The decrease in shareholders’ equity in the third quarter of 2022 as compared to the second quarter of 2022 was largely the result of the decrease in the fair value of the available for sale securities portfolio, which decreased $12.5 million, net of tax, as well as dividends paid of $2.8 million, which was only partially offset by earnings of $10.1 million. Tangible common equity to tangible assets* was 7.21% as of September 30, 2022. Excluding the impact of the fair value of the available for sales securities portfolio, tangible common equity to tangible common assets* was 8.41% as of September 30, 2022. Northrim continues to maintain capital levels in excess of the requirements to be categorized as “well-capitalized” with Tier 1 Capital to Risk Adjusted Assets of 12.98% at September 30, 2022, compared to 12.74% at June 30, 2022, and 14.17% at September 30, 2021.

Asset Quality

Nonperforming assets (“NPAs”) net of government guarantees were $10.8 million at September 30, 2022, down from $11.7 million at June 30, 2022 and from $16.1 million a year ago. Of the NPAs at September 30, 2022, $4.9 million, or 46% are nonaccrual loans related to four commercial relationships.

Net adversely classified loans were $7.6 million at September 30, 2022, as compared to $8.8 million at June 30, 2022, and $17.4 million a year ago. Adversely classified loans are loans that Northrim has classified as substandard, doubtful, and loss, net of government guarantees. Net loan recoveries were $1.3 million in the third quarter of 2022, compared to net loan charge-offs of $46,000 in the second quarter of 2022, and net loan recoveries of $39,000 in the third quarter of 2021.

Performing restructured loans that were not included in nonaccrual loans at September 30, 2022, net of government guarantees were $574,000, down from $588,000 three months earlier and down from $796,000 a year ago. Borrowers who are in financial difficulty and who have been granted concessions that may include interest rate reductions, term extensions, or payment alterations are categorized as restructured loans, unless it is the result of the COVID-19 global pandemic. The Company presents restructured loans that are performing separately from those that are classified as nonaccrual to provide more information on this category of loans and to differentiate between accruing performing and nonperforming restructured loans.

Excluding SBA PPP loans, Northrim had $119.8 million, or 9% of total portfolio loans, in the Healthcare sector; $93.3 million, or 7% of portfolio loans, in the Tourism sector; $78.2 million, or 6% in the Fishing sector; $64.6 million, or 5% in the Accommodations sector; $60.4 million, or 4% in Retail loans; $50.8 million, or 4% of portfolio loans, in the Aviation (non-tourism) sector; and $48.6 million, or 3% in the Restaurants and Breweries sector as of September 30, 2022.

Northrim estimates that $59.6 million, or approximately 4% of portfolio loans excluding SBA PPP loans, had direct exposure to the oil and gas industry in Alaska, as of September 30, 2022, and $3.1 million of these loans are adversely classified. As of September 30, 2022, Northrim has an additional $81.4 million in unfunded commitments to companies with direct exposure to the oil and gas industry in Alaska, and none of these unfunded commitments are considered to be adversely classified loans. Northrim defines direct exposure to the oil and gas sector as loans to borrowers that provide oilfield services and other companies that have been identified as significantly reliant upon activity in Alaska related to the oil and gas industry, such as lodging, equipment rental, transportation and other logistics services specific to this industry.

When used in this report, the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” and “intend” and words or phrases of similar meaning, as they relate to Northrim and its management are intended to help identify forward-looking statements. Although we believe that management’s expectations as reflected in forward-looking statements are reasonable, we cannot assure readers that those expectations will prove to be correct. Forward looking statements, whether concerning the COVID-19 pandemic and the government responses related thereto or otherwise, are subject to various risks and uncertainties that may cause our actual results to differ materially and adversely from our expectations as indicated in the forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include: the uncertainties relating to the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s credit quality, business, operations and employees; the impact of the results of government initiatives on the regulatory landscape, natural resource extraction industries, capital markets, and the response to and management of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the effectiveness of previously-enacted fiscal stimulus from the federal government and a potential infrastructure bill; the timing of PPP loan forgiveness; the impact of rising interest rates, inflationary pressure, supply-chain constraints, trade policies and tensions, including tariffs, and potential geopolitical instability, including the war in Ukraine; our ability to maintain strong asset quality and to maintain or expand our market share or net interest margins; and our ability to execute our business plan. Further, actual results may be affected by our ability to compete on price and other factors with other financial institutions; customer acceptance of new products and services; the regulatory environment in which we operate; and general trends in the local, regional and national banking industry and economy as those factors relate to our cost of funds and return on assets. In addition, there are risks inherent in the banking industry relating to collectability of loans and changes in interest rates.

Non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations, are not required to be uniformly applied, and are not audited. Although we believe these non-GAAP financial measures are frequently used by stakeholders in the evaluation of the Company, they have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of results as reported under GAAP.

Net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis

Net interest margin on a tax equivalent basis (“NIMTE”) is a non-GAAP performance measurement in which interest income on non-taxable investments and loans is presented on a tax equivalent basis using a combined federal and state statutory rate of 28.43% in both 2022 and 2021. The most comparable GAAP measure is net interest margin and the following table sets forth the reconciliation of NIMTE to net interest margin.
