FS Bancorp, Inc. Reports Net Income for the First Quarter of $11.9 Million or $2.70 Per Diluted Share, a One Cent Dividend Increase to $0.27, and a Renewed and Increased Share Repurchase Plan to $15.0 Million

MOUNTLAKE TERRACE, WA / ACCESSWIRE / April 26, 2021 / FS Bancorp, Inc. (NASDAQ:FSBW) (the "Company"), the holding company for 1st Security Bank of Washington (the "Bank") today reported 2021 first quarter net income of $11.9 million, or $2.70 per diluted share, compared to $5.2 million, or $1.14 per diluted share for the same period last year.

"We want to take this opportunity to thank our loyal customers and commend the outstanding efforts of our 1st Security Bank teammates. We are proud of our strong fiscal performance and our continued commitment to the communities we serve even with the daily challenges from this pandemic," stated Joe Adams, CEO. "We are pleased to announce that our Board of Directors has approved our thirty-third consecutive quarterly cash dividend which is being increased to $0.27 from $0.26 per share. The dividend will be paid on May 20, 2021, to shareholders of record as of May 6, 2021."

CFO Matthew Mullet noted, "Our balance sheet management efforts reflect strong core deposit growth this quarter funding diversified lending pillars. We also began to utilize proceeds from the subordinated debt raised in the first quarter of 2021 to support our growth and enhance shareholder returns."

Updated response to the novel coronavirus of 2019 ("COVID-19") pandemic:

The Company is following the Federal Housing Finance Agency guidelines for forbearance, foreclosure relief, and late payment reporting for the COVID-19 pandemic on all serviced loans and a modified format for portfolio loans. For portfolio loans, the primary method of relief is to allow the borrower up to 90-days of interest only payments and/or loan payment deferments, and, on a more limited basis, waived interest, late fees, or interest only loan payments and suspended foreclosure proceedings. As of March 31, 2021, the amount of portfolio loans under payment/relief agreements includes commercial real estate loans of $22.9 million, commercial business loans of $11.5 million, a portfolio one-to-four-family loan of $308,000, and consumer loans of $157,000. Of these loans, $29.8 million (85.4%) are making interest only payments. Additional detail is provided below in the "Credit Quality" discussion.

During the first quarter of 2021, we continued our participation in the U.S. Small Business Administration's ("SBA") Paycheck Protection Program ("PPP"). Recent legislation reopened the PPP beginning January 1, 2021 through May 31, 2021, by authorizing $284.5 billion in funding for eligible small businesses and non-profits. For borrowers in the communities we serve, during the first quarter of 2021, the Company funded 286 PPP loans totaling $48.0 million under this second PPP program. PPP loan balances originated in 2020 totaling $26.1 million were submitted for approval and forgiven by the SBA. As of March 31, 2021, the Company serviced 471 PPP loans totaling $83.8 million.

Branch operations continue to remain flexible to satisfy governmental restrictions and public health authority guidance provided for the communities in which we operate. The majority of our employees continue to work remotely, where feasible.

The quarter over linked quarter increase in total real estate loans was $6.3 million, including increases in construction and development loans of $24.7 million and commercial real estate loans of $4.1 million, offset by decreases in one-to-four-family loans of $11.8 million, multi-family loans of $9.0 million, and home equity loans of $1.7 million. Consumer loans increased $7.7 million, primarily due to an increase of $8.4 million in indirect home improvement loans. Commercial business loans increased $36.9 million, primarily due to an increase in commercial and industrial loans of $37.5 million, including PPP loans originated during the quarter totaling $48.0 million, partially offset by PPP loan forgiveness by the SBA of $26.1 million. The focused increase in commercial and industrial loans is tied to the Bank's investment in our business lending platform, including employees to service business lending customers and cash management teams to support business deposits.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting availability of PPP loan funds and stimulus funds made available, the tables above reflect quarter over linked quarter and year over year changes in deposits, partially impacted by customers transferring funds from CDs to more liquid interest-bearing accounts, such as money market and interest-bearing checking.

At March 31, 2021, non-retail CDs, which include brokered CDs, online CDs, and public funds CDs, decreased $8.5 million to $188.1 million, compared to $196.6 million at December 31, 2020, due to decreases of $8.3 million in brokered CDs and $248,000 in online CDs. The year over year increase in non-retail CDs of $59.3 million from $128.8 million at March 31, 2020, was primarily the result of a $54.7 million increase in brokered CDs tied to longer term interest rate swap transactions, a $3.5 million increase in public funds CDs, and a $1.0 million increase in online CDs. Management remains focused on increasing its lower cost relationship-based deposits to fund long-term asset growth.

At March 31, 2021, borrowings decreased $93.3 million, or 56.3%, to $72.5 million, from $165.8 million at December 31, 2020, and decreased $86.6 million, or 54.4% from $159.1 million at March 31, 2020. The decrease in borrowings from the linked quarter and from the prior year is primarily due to the repayment of $63.3 million of Paycheck Protection Program Liquidity Facility ("PPPLF") borrowings, due in part to SBA forgiveness of the underlying PPP loans and $30.0 million of Federal Home Loan Bank ("FHLB") borrowings utilizing funds attributable to deposit growth.

Total stockholders' equity increased $10.3 million, to $240.3 million at March 31, 2021, from $230.0 million at December 31, 2020, and increased $39.5 million, from $200.8 million at March 31, 2020. The increase in stockholders' equity during the current quarter was primarily due to net income of $11.9 million, partially offset by dividends of $1.1 million and common stock repurchases of $411,000. The Company repurchased 7,416 shares of its common stock during the quarter ended March 31, 2021, at an average price of $55.42 per share. Book value per common share was $57.79 at March 31, 2021, compared to $55.33 at December 31, 2020, and $47.29 at March 31, 2020.

The Bank is well capitalized under the minimum capital requirements established by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") at March 31, 2021 with a CBLR of 11.8%, compared to the normally required CBLR of greater than 9.0% and the regulatory approved reduced CBLR of 8.5% due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company's Tier 1 leverage capital ratio was 10.9% at March 31, 2021.

Credit Quality

The allowance for loan and lease losses at March 31, 2021, increased to $27.4 million, or 1.68% of gross loans receivable, excluding loans HFS, compared to $26.2 million, or 1.66% of gross loans receivable, excluding loans HFS at December 31, 2020, and $16.9 million, or 1.20% of gross loans receivable, excluding loans HFS, at March 31, 2020. Nonperforming loans increased $1.5 million to $9.3 million at March 31, 2021, from $7.8 million at December 31, 2020 and increased from $3.2 million at March 31, 2020. The increase in nonperforming loans quarter over linked quarter was primarily related to the addition of a $1.9 million construction and development loan, partially offset by a $182,000 reduction in consumer loans and a $114,000 reduction in home equity loans, and the year over year increase was associated with borrowers adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, primarily in the commercial business portfolio.

Loans classified as substandard increased $3.3 million to $20.9 million at March 31, 2021, compared to $17.6 million at December 31, 2020, and increased $13.3 million from $7.6 million at March 31, 2020. The quarter over linked quarter increase in substandard loans was attributable to the $1.9 million nonperforming construction and development loan and one lending relationship with two commercial business loans totaling $1.8 million. The year over year increase in substandard loans was primarily due to a net increase of $6.4 million in commercial business loans, one-to-four-family loan increases of $5.8 million, and the addition of the nonperforming construction and development loan of $1.9 million. There was no other real estate owned ("OREO") property at March 31, 2021, compared to one OREO property in the amount of $90,000 at both December 31, 2020, and March 31, 2020.

Included in the carrying value of gross loans are net discounts on loans purchased in the Anchor Bank acquisition in November 2018 ("Anchor Acquisition"). The remaining net discount on loans acquired was $1.3 million, $1.5 million, and $2.3 million, on $121.9 million, $132.6 million, and $178.2 million of gross loans at March 31, 2021, December 31, 2020, and March 31, 2020, respectively.

Management has identified loans that have either been directly or indirectly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and downgraded the risk classification and/or increased the monitoring of these loans. Commercial loans (non homogeneous loans) reported at a risk rating below "pass" or receiving elevated risk monitoring as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and their respective industries at the dates indicated are as follows:

*At December 31, 2020, "pass" rated commercial loans of $12.3 million were included with elevated risk monitoring as they were upgraded in the fourth quarter. Effective March 31, 2021, only risk rated commercial loans below "pass" will be shown in our COVID risk monitoring loan reporting.

Management recognizes the potential impact of COVID-19 on all of our customers and will continue to prudently reserve for probable loan losses, including reserves against our homogenous residential and consumer portfolios.

Operating Results

Net interest income increased $2.6 million, to $20.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, from $17.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. This comparable quarter over quarter increase was primarily the result of an improved mix of loans versus other interest-bearing assets and increased balances in higher yielding loans funded by lower cost deposits. Interest expense decreased $1.8 million, primarily as a result of repricing deposit costs. Interest income increased $835,000, primarily due to an increase of $794,000 in interest income on loans receivable, including fees, impacted primarily by loan growth with low market interest rates on new loan originations, including low yielding PPP loans, resetting adjustable-rate instruments, refinances of higher yielding one-to-four-family portfolio loans, and SBA forgiveness of PPP loans. As of March 31, 2021, the total recognition of net deferred fees on forgiven and nonforgiven PPP loans was $653,000.

The net interest margin ("NIM") decreased 31 basis points to 3.99% for the three months ended March 31, 2021, from 4.30% for the same period in the prior year. The comparable quarter over quarter decrease in NIM was impacted by lower yielding loans, including reduced interest rates on new fixed-rate real estate loan originations and adjustable-rate commercial loans. During the quarter, $316,000 in premium was amortized on purchased loans with early payoffs, partially offset by $213,000 in discount accretion from the Anchor Acquisition.

The average total cost of funds, including noninterest-bearing checking, decreased 61 basis points to 0.58% for the three months ended March 31, 2021, from 1.19% for the three months ended March 31, 2020. This decrease was predominantly due to the decrease in cost for market rate deposits and borrowings following the significant decline in market rates in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as a strategic shift away from higher cost certificate of deposit funding. Management remains focused on matching deposit/liability duration with the duration of loans/assets where appropriate.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, the provision for loan losses was $1.5 million, compared to $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020 with the reduction of the provision reflecting the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic compared to the same time last year. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, net charge-offs totaled $297,000 compared to net charge-offs of $43,000 for the same period last year. The increase in net charge-offs were primarily due to increased indirect consumer loan charge-offs.

Noninterest income increased $4.1 million, to $13.0 million, for the three months ended March 31, 2021, from $8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase during the period primarily reflects a $5.8 million increase in gain on sale of loans, partially offset by a decrease of $1.5 million in other noninterest income due to the net gain on the one-time sale of Class B Visa stock shares during the first quarter last year.

Noninterest expense increased $165,000, to $16.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, from $16.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020. The increase in noninterest expense reflects a $2.1 million increase in salaries and benefits, mostly attributable to increases in incentives and commissions of $2.5 million. Other increases included data processing of $327,000, professional and board fees of $141,000, and FDIC insurance of $122,000, partially offset by the year over year variance in servicing rights of $2.6 million. In the comparable quarter for 2020, we recognized an impairment of $514,000 on our servicing rights asset due to falling interest rates. In the first quarter of 2021, we recognized a recovery of $2.1 million in servicing rights due to increasing rates experienced in the quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

In addition to financial results presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles utilized in the United States ("GAAP"), this earnings release contains the tangible book value per share, a non-GAAP financial measure. Tangible common stockholders' equity is calculated by excluding intangible assets from stockholders' equity. For this financial measure, the Company's intangible assets are goodwill and core deposit intangible. Tangible book value per share is calculated by dividing tangible common shareholders' equity by the number of common shares outstanding. The Company believes that this non-GAAP measure is consistent with the capital treatment utilized by the investment community, which excludes intangible assets from the calculation of risk-based capital ratios and presents this measure to facilitate comparison of the quality and composition of the Company's capital over time and in comparison to its competitors.

This non-GAAP financial measure has inherent limitations, is not required to be uniformly applied, and is not audited. Further, this non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for book value per share or total stockholders' equity determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

 

Reconciliation of the GAAP book value per share and non-GAAP tangible book value per share is presented below.
