BAYONNE, N.J., Jan. 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BCB Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”), (NASDAQ: BCBP), the holding company for BCB Community Bank (the “Bank”), today reported that its net income for the year ended December 31, 2022 increased 33.1 percent to $45.6 million, the highest annual earnings in the Company’s history, compared with $34.2 million for 2021. Earnings per diluted share for 2022 were $2.58 as compared to $1.92 for 2021. For the fourth quarter of 2022, net income was $12.1 million, a 9.9 percent decrease compared to $13.4 million in the third quarter of 2022, and a 12.3 percent increase compared to $10.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. Earnings per diluted share for the fourth quarter of 2022 were $0.69, compared to $0.76 in the preceding quarter and $0.61 in the fourth quarter of 2021.
The Company also announced that its Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.16 per share. The dividend will be payable February 17, 2023, to common shareholders of record on February 3, 2023.
“We posted another strong quarter and Company-record profits for the year 2022. Our results are indicative of the successful execution of our business strategy and the efforts of our team to help our customers meet the needs of the communities we serve,” stated Thomas Coughlin, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Despite a challenging high rate environment, our operating results for the fourth quarter of 2022 reflect continued strong loan growth, increased interest income, and robust profitability.”
“Looking ahead, we remain committed to protecting our profitability as we continue to grow in a disciplined and prudent manner. We plan to onboard new relationships and talent that have become available due to market disruptions caused by recent mergers. We expect to benefit from the successful execution of a number of internal projects that will significantly enhance our digital footprint and automate back-office operations. We firmly believe that these actions will further enhance our franchise value over time and we will come out stronger and more profitable on the other side of the current economic cycle.”
“The Company will adopt the Current Expected Credit Loss (“CECL”) methodology during the first quarter of 2023. CECL replaced the incurred loss methodology and therefore, starting in 2023, the allowance and provision for credit losses will be based upon estimated expected credit losses rather than incurred losses. Our asset quality remains strong and continues to show improvement. Our non-accrual loans to total loans ratio decreased to 0.17 percent at December 31, 2022, from 0.30 percent at September 30, 2022, and 0.64 percent a year ago. Due to the solid performance of our asset quality metrics, we recorded a credit to the loan loss provision of $500,000 during the fourth quarter of 2022. This is compared to a credit to the loan loss provision of $985,000 in the fourth quarter of 2021,” said Mr. Coughlin.
Executive Summary
Balance Sheet Review
Total assets increased by $578.7 million, or 19.5 percent, to $3.546 billion at December 31, 2022, from $2.968 billion at December 31, 2021. The increase in total assets was mainly related to increases in total loans.
Total cash and cash equivalents decreased by $182.3 million, or 44.3 percent, to $229.4 million at December 31, 2022 from $411.6 million at December 31, 2021. This decrease was primarily due to the redeployment of cash and cash equivalents into loans.
Loans receivable, net, increased by $740.4 million, or 32.1 percent, to $3.045 billion at December 31, 2022 from $2.305 billion at December 31, 2021. Total loan increases for 2022 included increases of $625.1 million in commercial real estate and multi-family loans, $90.9 million in commercial business loans, $25.6 million in residential one-to-four family loans and $6.4 million in home equity loans, partly offset by decreases of $9.0 million in construction loans and $477 thousand in consumer loans. The allowance for loan losses decreased $4.7 million to $32.4 million, or 633.6 percent of non-accruing loans and 1.05 percent of gross loans, at December 31, 2022 as compared to an allowance for loan losses of $37.1 million, or 249.3 percent of non-accruing loans and 1.58 percent of gross loans, at December 31, 2021.
Total investment securities decreased by $972,000, or 0.88 percent, to $109.4 million at December 31, 2022 from $110.4 million at December 31, 2021, representing repayments, calls and maturities, and unrealized losses, partly offset by purchases of $27.5 million, and sales of $1.2 million.
Deposit liabilities increased by $250.2 million, or 9.8 percent, to $2.812 billion at December 31, 2022 from $2.561 billion at December 31, 2021. Total increases for 2022 included $25.7 million in non-interest-bearing deposit accounts, $89.4 million in NOW deposit accounts, and $166.7 million in certificates of deposit, including listing service and brokered deposit accounts. The increase in deposits was partly offset by a decrease of $31.6 million in money market accounts.
Debt obligations increased by $310.8 million to $419.8 million at December 31, 2022 from $109.0 million at December 31, 2021. The weighted average interest rate of FHLB advances was 4.07 percent at December 31, 2022 and 1.39 percent at December 31, 2021. The weighted average maturity of FHLB advances as of December 31,2022 was 1.10 years. The fixed interest rate of our subordinated debt balances was 5.625 percent at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Stockholders’ equity increased by $17.2 million, or 6.3 percent, to $291.3 million at December 31, 2022 from $274.0 million at December 31, 2021. The increase was primarily attributable to the increase in retained earnings of $33.9 million, or 41.8 percent, to $115.1 million at December 31, 2022 from $81.2 million at December 31, 2021, related to net income less dividends paid for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was partly offset by a decrease of $7.9 million in additional paid-in-capital for preferred stock, an increase in accumulated other comprehensive losses of $7.6 million, and an increase in treasury stock of $3.4 million. The decrease in additional paid-in-capital for preferred stock was primarily related to the redemption of $9.4 million of the Company’s then-outstanding Series D 4.5 percent preferred stock and $5.3 million of the Company’s then-outstanding Series G 6.0 percent preferred stock, partially offset by the issuance of $6.8 million of Series I 3.0 percent preferred stock. The decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income over the prior year was based upon unfavorable market conditions related to the Company’s available-for-sale debt securities, caused by the recent increase in interest rates generally.
Fourth Quarter 2022 Income Statement Review
Net income was $12.1 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2022 and $10.8 million for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2021. The increase was driven by an increase in total interest income and a decrease in income tax provision, which were partly offset by a decrease in non-interest income, a lower credit for loan loss provision, and an increase in non-interest expenses for the fourth quarter of 2022 as compared with the fourth quarter of 2021.
Net interest income increased by $5.0 million, or 20.0 percent, to $30.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 from $25.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase in net interest income resulted from higher interest income which was partially offset by higher interest expense.
Interest income increased by $10.5 million, or 37.1 percent, to $38.9 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 from $28.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased $282.2 million, or 9.6 percent, to $3.207 billion for the fourth quarter of 2022 from $2.925 billion for the fourth quarter of 2021, while the average yield increased 97 basis points to 4.85 percent for the fourth quarter of 2022 from 3.88 percent for the fourth quarter of 2021. Interest income on loans for the fourth quarter of 2022 also included $647,000 of amortization of purchase credit fair value adjustments related to a prior acquisition, which added approximately eight basis points to the average yield on interest earning assets.
Interest expense increased by $5.5 million to $8.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 from $3.2 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase resulted primarily from an increase in the average rate on interest-bearing liabilities of 87 basis points to 1.46 percent for the fourth quarter of 2022 from 0.59 percent for the fourth quarter of 2021, while the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities increased by $225.4 million to $2.382 billion for the fourth quarter of 2022 from $2.157 billion for the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase in the average cost of funds resulted primarily from the significantly higher interest rate environment during 2022 compared to 2021.
The net interest margin was 3.76 percent for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to 3.44 percent for the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase in the net interest margin compared to the fourth quarter of 2021 was the result of the improvement in the yield on interest-earning assets partially offset by the increase in the cost of interest-bearing liabilities. In a rapidly rising interest rate environment, management has been proactive in managing both the yield on earning assets and the cost of funds to protect net interest margin and continue to support the growth of net interest income.
During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company experienced $322,000 in net charge offs compared to $52,000 in the fourth quarter of 2021. The Bank had non-accrual loans totaling $5.1 million, or 0.17 percent, of gross loans at December 31, 2022 as compared to $14.9 million, or 0.64 percent of gross loans at December 31, 2021. The allowance for loan losses was $32.4 million, or 1.05 percent of gross loans at December 31, 2022, and $37.1 million, or 1.58 percent of gross loans at December 31, 2021. The credit for loan losses decreased by $485,000 to $500,000 for the fourth quarter of 2022 from $985,000 for the fourth quarter of 2021. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses was adequate at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Noninterest income decreased by $1.5 million, or 59.3 percent, to $1.1 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 from $2.6 million for fourth quarter of 2021. The decrease in total noninterest income was mainly related to a decrease in the realized and unrealized gains and losses on equity securities from a gain of $151,000 to a loss of $723,000 and a decrease in other non-interest income of $429,000. The realized and unrealized gains or losses on equity securities are based on market conditions. The other income for the fourth quarter of 2021 was higher primarily due to the reversal of certain liabilities previously recorded for loans acquired in the acquisition of IAB Bancorp, Inc. that paid off during the quarter.
Noninterest expense increased by $2.3 million, or 17.0 percent, to $16.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 from $13.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase in operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2022 was primarily driven by the non-recurring consulting fee expense of $1.6 million discussed above for which there was no comparable expense in the fourth quarter of 2021. Other factors that contributed to the increase in operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2022 included higher salaries and employee benefits and higher other expenses compared to the fourth quarter of 2021. The increase in salaries related to normal compensation increases, higher commission expenses from strong loan production, and hiring of additional staff. The number of full-time equivalent employees for the fourth quarter of 2022 was 301, as compared to 292 for the same period in 2021. Occupancy and equipment expense decreased by $105,000 to $2.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 from $2.8 million for the fourth quarter of 2021, mainly related to costs associated with branch closures in 2021.
The income tax provision decreased by $655,000 or 15.3 percent, to $3.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 from $4.3 million for the fourth quarter of 2021. The income tax provision for the fourth quarter of 2022 benefited from the reversal of a portion of tax accrual that was no longer required to cover the tax liability. The consolidated effective tax rate was 23.1% for the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to 28.5 percent for the fourth quarter of 2021.
Year-to-Date Income Statement Review
Net income increased by $11.3 million, or 33.1 percent, to $45.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 from $34.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in net income was driven by an increase in total interest income and credit for loan loss provision, which were partly offset by a decrease in non-interest income and increases in interest expense, non-interest expenses, and a higher income tax provision for 2022 as compared to 2021.
Net interest income increased by $16.6 million, or 17.0 percent, to $113.9 million for the year of 2022 from $97.4 million for the year of 2021. The increase in net interest income resulted from a $18.9 million increase in interest income, partly offset by an increase of $2.3 million in interest expense.
Interest income increased by $18.9 million, or 16.8 percent, to $131.4 million for 2022, from $112.6 million for 2021. The average balance of interest-earning assets increased $197.4 million, or 7.0 percent, to $3.011 billion for 2022, from $2.814 for 2021, while the average yield increased 37 basis points to 4.37 percent for 2022, from 4.00 percent for 2021. The increase in the average balance of interest-earning assets mainly related to an increase in the Company’s level of average loans receivable for 2022, as compared to 2021.
The increase in interest income mainly related to an increase in the average balance of loans receivable of $298.9 million to $2.627 billion for 2022, from $2.328 billion for 2021. The increase in the average balance on loans receivable was a result of the continued strength of the Company’s loan pipeline. Interest income on loans for 2022 also included $1.4 million of amortization of purchase credit fair value adjustments related to a prior acquisition, which added approximately five basis points to the average yield on interest earning assets.
Interest expense increased by $2.3 million, or 15.3 percent, to $17.5 million for 2022, from $15.2 million for 2021. This increase resulted primarily from an increase in the average rate on interest-bearing liabilities of 8 basis points to 0.79 percent for 2022, from 0.71 percent for 2021, and an increase in the average balance of interest-bearing liabilities of $68.5 million, or 3.2 percent, to $2.206 billion 2022, from $2.137 billion for 2021. The increase in the average cost of funds primarily resulted from the high interest rate environment in 2022.
Net interest margin was 3.78 percent for 2022, compared to 3.46 percent for 2021. The increase in the net interest margin compared to the prior period was the result of an increase in the average volume of loans receivable as well as an increase in the yield on loans partially offset by the increase in the Company’s cost of funds.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company experienced $1.7 million in net charge offs compared to $375,000 in net charge offs for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Bank had non-accrual loans totaling $5.1 million, or 0.17 percent, of gross loans at December 31, 2022 as compared to $14.9 million, or 0.64 percent of gross loans at December 31, 2021. The allowance for loan losses was $32.4 million, or 1.05 percent of gross loans at December 31, 2022, and $37.1 million, or 1.58 percent of gross loans at December 31, 2021. The credit for loan losses was $3.1 million for 2022 compared to loan loss provision expense of $3.9 million for 2021. The credit for provision for 2022 reflected the improving asset quality and more favorable economic metrics compared to the COVID-19 environment in 2021. Management believes that the allowance for loan losses was adequate at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Noninterest income decreased by $7.1 million, or 81.7 percent, to $1.6 million for 2022 from $8.7 million for 2021. The decrease in total noninterest income was mainly related to a decrease of $6.4 million in the realized and unrealized gains and losses on equity securities (from a gain of $147,000 to a loss of $6.3 million), as well as a decrease of $538,000 in gain on sale of loans, $371,000 in gain on sale of premises, and $391,000 in other income. The realized and unrealized gains or losses on equity securities are based on market conditions.
Noninterest expense increased by $1.5 million, or 2.8 percent, to $55.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 from $54.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in operating expenses for 2022 was driven higher by the non-recurring consulting fee expense of $1.6 million for which there was no comparable expense in 2021. Other factors that contributed to the increase in operating expenses for 2022 included higher salaries and employee benefits and higher advertising and promotion expenses compared to 2021. The increase in salaries related to normal compensation increases, higher commission expenses from strong loan production, and hiring of additional staff. The number of full-time equivalent employees for the year ended December 31, 2022 was 301, as compared with 292 for the same period in 2021. Occupancy and equipment expense decreased by $733,000 to $10.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 from $11.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021, mainly related to costs associated with branch closures in 2021.
The income tax provision increased by $3.5 million or 25.1 percent, to $17.5 million for 2022 from $14.0 million in 2021. The increase in the income tax provision was a result of the higher taxable income for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to the year ended December 31, 2021. The income tax provision for 2022 also included the benefit from the reversal of tax accrual that occurred during the fourth quarter of 2022. The consolidated effective tax rate was 27.8% for 2022 compared to 29.0 percent for 2021.
Asset Quality
During the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company recognized $322,000 in net charge offs, compared to $52,000 for the fourth quarter of 2021.
The credit for loan losses decreased by $485,000 to $500,000 for the fourth quarter of 2022 from $985,000 for the fourth quarter of 2021. The Bank had non-accrual loans totaling $5.1 million, or 0.17 percent, of gross loans at December 31, 2022, as compared to $14.9 million, or 0.64 percent, of gross loans at December 31, 2021.
Performing troubled debt restructured (“TDR”) loans that were not included in nonaccrual loans at December 31, 2022, were $10.6 million, compared to $12.4 million at December 31, 2021. Borrowers who are in financial difficulty and who have been granted concessions (excluding COVID-19 modifications) that may include interest rate reductions, term extensions, or payment alterations, are categorized as TDR loans.
The allowance for loan losses was $32.4 million, or 1.05 percent of gross loans at December 31, 2022, and $37.1 million, or 1.58 percent of gross loans at December 31, 2021. The allowance for loan losses was 633.6 percent of non-accrual loans at December 31, 2022, and 249.3 percent of non-accrual loans at December 31, 2021.
