[ad_1]

SPRINGFIELD, Ill., May 02, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Town and Country Financial Corporation (the “Company”) TWCF today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2022 with record net income.

Key highlights included:

  • First quarter 2022 net income of $3.9 million or $1.37 per share, compared to $2.8 million or $0.99 per share in the first quarter of 2021.
  • Return on Tangible Common Equity (ROTCE) of 19.92% for the quarter-to-date period ending March 31, 2022, compared to 16.29% in the same quarter of 2021.
  • Dividend declared of $0.14 per share.

Micah R. Bartlett, President and Chief Executive Officer, noted, “We are extremely proud to report our strongest first quarter ever. Our results reflect our excellent asset quality, well positioned balance sheet, and balanced business model based on our core focus of commercial banking and mortgage lending. The steep rise in interest rates during the quarter presented challenges for most banks who hold investment securities based on the accounting practice of marking available-for-sale securities to market. As a result, the company’s tangible book value per share decreased by 3.1% during the first quarter which is a level significantly better than the industry average. Despite challenges in the mortgage business inherent in a rising rate environment, our first quarter performance reflects the balance between the production and servicing aspects of our successful mortgage business. While commercial loan demand continues to be a challenge across the industry, we remain optimistic based on our team of relationship bankers, the deep connections we have with our customers, and the advancements we have made in our SBA business.”

The Company recorded first quarter 2022 net income of $3.9 million ($1.37 per share), compared to $2.8 million ($0.99 per share) in the first quarter of 2021. First quarter 2022 net income includes a negative provision for loan losses of $500 thousand ($357 thousand after-tax), compared to a $600 thousand ($429 thousand after-tax) positive provision for loan losses in the first quarter of 2021. Total mortgage revenue in the first quarter was roughly flat compared to the first quarter of 2021. While 2021 first quarter results reflected relatively strong production volume, the first quarter of 2022 reflected a $2.3 million ($1.6 million after-tax) positive adjustment to the carrying value of mortgage servicing rights.

Total assets at March 31, 2022 were $896.8 million, up $16.6 million, when compared to $880.2 million as of March 31, 2021. The change was due to an increase in the investment portfolio of $53.3 million and a $30.7 million decrease in loans, primarily driven by $40.1 million in Paycheck Protection Program loan forgiveness. First Quarter 2022 loan balances decreased $25.9 million when compared to December 31, 2021, which was a result of $5.1 million in PPP forgiveness and lower commercial loan demand.

Total deposits were $772.6 million at March 31, 2022, an increase of $34.9 million from March 31, 2021, and a decrease of $7.4 million when compared to December 31, 2021. The year over year increase was driven by deposit growth in demand, money market and savings deposits, partially offset by reductions in time and brokered deposits. At the end of the first quarter in 2022, total borrowed money was $22.8 million compared to $42.0 million at end of the first quarter in 2021. This reduction was primarily due to the paydown of Federal Home Loan Bank advances as a result of liquidity.

Net interest income was $6.7 million for the quarter ending March 31, 2022, roughly flat with the quarter ending March 31, 2021. The net interest margin for the first quarter of 2022 was 3.34% down slightly when compared to 3.36% in the first quarter of 2021.

Noninterest income was $5.1 million in the first quarter of 2022, an increase of $395 thousand when compared to $4.7 million in the first quarter of 2021. A $2.3 million valuation adjustment was taken in response to the rise in interest rates which increases the value of the mortgage servicing rights that are held on the Company’s books. This offset the lower gains on sale of mortgages compared to the first quarter of 2021. The first quarter 2022 noninterest expense of $7.0 million was down slightly from $7.1 million for the first quarter 2021.

The Company’s nonperforming loans as a percentage of total loans were 0.77% as of March 31, 2022, compared to 1.03% as of March 31, 2021. When these ratios are adjusted for nonperforming loans that have a government guarantee, the ratios are 0.32% as of March 31, 2022 and 0.49% as of March 31, 2021.

Town and Country Bank maintains solid capital levels, with a tier 1 leverage ratio of 10.37% and a total risk-based ratio of 14.90% as of March 31, 2022. The tier 1 leverage ratio was 9.50% and the total risked-based ratio was 14.19% as of March 31, 2021.

On April 28, 2022, the board of directors declared a $0.14 per share cash dividend payable June 15, 2022, to shareholders of record as of June 1, 2022. The company’s book value per share was $29.05 at March 31, 2022, down from $29.93 as of December 31, 2021. Tangible book value per share was $26.74 at March 31, 2022, compared to $27.60 at December 31, 2021, a 3% decrease due to the change in unrealized market value of the investment portfolio.
