(1) This measure is not a measure recognized under United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and is therefore considered to be a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP to GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of this measure to its most comparable GAAP measure. The efficiency ratio is defined as total noninterest expense divided by the sum of net interest income and noninterest income. We believe this measure is important as an indicator of productivity because it shows the amount of revenue generated for each dollar spent.
(2) This measure is not a measure recognized under GAAP and is therefore considered to be a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP to GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of this measure to its most comparable GAAP measure. Tangible shareholders’ equity is defined as total shareholders’ equity less goodwill and other intangible assets. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is total shareholder’s equity. We had no goodwill or other intangible assets as of any of the dates indicated. We have not considered loan servicing rights or loan trailing fee asset as intangible assets for purposes of this calculation. As a result, tangible shareholders’ equity is the same as total shareholders’ equity as of each of the dates indicated.
Net Income
Net income was $6.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $3.7 million for the third quarter of 2022, and $10.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase from the previous quarter was primarily due to higher gain on sale, lower provision for income taxes and lower provision for loan losses as our credit quality remained solid, partially offset by an increase in non-interest expense and lower strategic program fees. Compared to the prior year period, the decline was primarily driven by a decrease in net interest income and strategic program fees, and an increase in non-interest expenses, partially offset by higher gain on sale and a lower provision for income taxes.
Net Interest Income
Net interest income rose slightly to $12.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, from $12.5 million for the third quarter of 2022, and down from $15.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase from the prior quarter was primarily due to an increase in interest rates being paid on our cash balances at the Federal Reserve which was partially offset by an increase in the Bank’s deposit rates being paid to customers. The decline from the prior year period was primarily due to lower average loans held for sale balances.
Loan originations totaled $1.2 billion for the fourth quarter of 2022, down from $1.5 billion for the third quarter of 2022 and $2.3 billion for the fourth quarter of 2021.
Net interest margin for the fourth quarter of 2022 decreased to 14.27% compared to 14.93% for the third quarter of 2022 and 16.62% for the fourth quarter of 2021. The decrease from the previous quarter was primarily driven by the reduction in average balances in the loans held for sale portfolio along with the shifting of the deposit portfolio mix from lower costing deposits to higher costing demand deposits. The net interest margin decrease from the fourth quarter of 2021 was primarily driven by lower average loans held for sale balances and an increase in higher rate deposit balances.
Provision for Loan Losses
The Company’s provision for loan losses was $3.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $4.5 million for the third quarter of 2022 and $2.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. Compared to the previous quarter, the decrease in provision for loan losses for the fourth quarter of 2022 was primarily due to a decrease in strategic program loans held for investment. Compared to the prior year period, the increase in the provision for loan losses for the fourth quarter of 2022 was primarily due to higher net charge-offs and growth of unguaranteed loans held for investment.

Non-interest income was $9.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $7.5 million for the third quarter of 2022 and $9.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase from the previous quarter was driven primarily by an increase in gain on sale of loans recorded to establish a new Loan Trailing Fee Asset of approximately $2.3 million and an increase in fair value of the Company’s investment in Business Funding Group, LLC (“BFG”), partially offset by lower strategic program fees due to the decline in loan origination volumes. Compared to the prior year period, the increase in non-interest income was primarily due to an increase in gain on sale of loans, partially offset by lower strategic program fees resulting primarily from a decline in loan origination volumes and a decrease in the change in fair value of the Company’s investment in BFG.

Non-interest expense was $10.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $8.5 million for the third quarter of 2022 and $8.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase from the previous quarter was primarily due to an impairment on the Company’s SBA servicing asset in the fourth quarter of 2022, which did not occur in the third quarter of 2022, higher employee head count related to developing and upgrading new and existing technology, and increased business infrastructure. The increase compared to the fourth quarter of 2021 was primarily due to increased professional services relating primarily to an increase in consulting fees and increased depreciation from the buildout of our corporate office which was partially offset by a decrease in salaries and employee benefits.
The Company’s efficiency ratio was 45.6% for the fourth quarter of 2022 as compared to 42.3% for the third quarter of 2022 and 34.3% for the fourth quarter of 2021.
Tax Rate
The Company’s effective tax rate was approximately 27.3% for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to 48.7% for the third quarter of 2022 and 25.3% for the fourth quarter of 2021. An immaterial error was corrected during the third quarter of 2022 and is the primary reason for the higher effective tax rate in that quarter.
Balance Sheet
The Company’s total assets were $402.2 million at December 31, 2022, an increase from $385.6 million at September 30, 2022 and $380.2 million at December 31, 2021. The increase from September 30, 2022 was primarily due to an increase in deposits utilized to fund the Company’s growth in cash and held for investment loan portfolio, partially offset by a decrease in deposits utilized to fund the Company’s held for sale loan portfolio. The increase in total assets compared to December 31, 2021 was primarily due to an increase in cash from growth in deposits to fund the Company’s held for investment loan portfolio, partially offset by a decrease in deposits utilized to fund the Company’s held for sale loan portfolio.

Total deposits at December 31, 2022 increased to $243.0 million from $232.8 million at September 30, 2022, and decreased from $251.9 million at December 31, 2021. The increase from the amount at September 30, 2022 was driven primarily by an increase in time certificates of deposits, partially offset by decreases in noninterest-bearing and interest-bearing demand deposits. The decrease from the amount at December 31, 2021 was driven primarily by decreases in noninterest-bearing demand deposits, money market deposits and time certificates of deposit, partially offset by an increase in interest-bearing demand deposits. The increase in interest-bearing demand deposits compared to December 31, 2021, is primarily due to new HSA deposits from Lively, Inc., a technology focused Health Savings Account provider.
Total shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2022 increased $6.2 million to $140.5 million from $134.3 million at September 30, 2022. Compared to December 31, 2021, total shareholders’ equity at December 31, 2022 increased $25.1 million from $115.4 million. The increase over both prior periods was primarily due to the Company’s net income, partially offset by the repurchase of common stock under the Company’s share repurchase program.
Bank Regulatory Capital Ratios

The Bank’s capital levels remain significantly above well-capitalized guidelines as of the end of the fourth quarter of 2022.
Share Repurchase Program
On August 18, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program pursuant to which the Company may repurchase up to 5% of outstanding common stock as of August 16, 2022, or 644,241 shares of the Company’s common stock, through August 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2022, the Company has repurchased a total of 120,000 shares for a total of $1.1 million.
Asset Quality
Nonperforming loans were $0.4 million or 0.1% of total loans receivable at December 31, 2022, compared to $0.7 million or 0.2% of total loans receivable at December 31, 2021. The Company did not have any nonperforming loans as of September 30, 2022. As noted above, the provision for loan losses was $3.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $4.5 million for the third quarter of 2022 and $2.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The Company’s allowance for loan losses to total loans was 4.6% at December 31, 2022 compared to 4.7% at September 30, 2022 and 3.7% at December 31, 2021.
For the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company’s net charge-offs were $3.2 million, compared to $3.1 million for the third quarter of 2022 and $2.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase in net charge-offs compared to the third quarter of 2022 was primarily driven by higher net charge-offs related to retained strategic programs. The increase in net charge-offs compared to the fourth quarter of 2021 was primarily driven by some normalization of credit losses to pre-pandemic market conditions and growth in the unguaranteed loans held for investment balances.

(1) This measure is not a measure recognized under United States generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP, and is therefore considered to be a non-GAAP financial measure. See “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP to GAAP Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of this measure to its most comparable GAAP measure. Tangible shareholders’ equity is defined as total shareholders’ equity less goodwill and other intangible assets. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is total shareholder’s equity. We had no goodwill or other intangible assets as of any of the dates indicated. We have not considered loan servicing rights or loan trailing fee asset as intangible assets for purposes of this calculation. As a result, tangible shareholders’ equity is the same as total shareholders’ equity as of each of the dates indicated.
