CIB Marine Bancshares, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2022 Results

CIB Marine Bancshares, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2022 Results

BROOKFIELD, Wis., April 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — CIB Marine Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company” or “CIBM”) (OTCQX: CIBH), the holding company of CIBM Bank, announced its unaudited results of operations and financial condition for the first quarter of 2022. Changes to markets over the past quarter and year have impacted the Company’s level and composition of income and mortgage lending activity has declined in the rising mortgage rate environment. Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2022, was $0.9 million, or $0.69 basic and $0.50 diluted earnings per share, compared to $2.1 million, or $1.67 basic and $0.97 diluted earnings per share, for the same period of 2021.

Financial highlights for the quarter include:

  • Net interest income and margin in the first quarter of 2022 were $5.5 million and 3.05%, respectively, compared to $5.7 million and 3.23% in the same period of 2021. The change was primarily the result of a reduction in residential loans held for sale balances due to lower mortgage volume, an increase in lower yielding interest bearing cash and due from, a decline in PPP loan fees, and the issuance of 4.50% coupon bearing subordinated debt.
  • Net mortgage banking revenues were $1.4 million for the first quarter of 2022 compared to $5.0 million for the same period of 2021. The change was due to a significant decline in loan originations (from $143 million to $58 million) due to an increase of almost 100 basis points in average mortgage rates over the same period, as well as tightening margins in the industry due to competitive pressures in the lower volume environment. Related mortgage compensation expenses were also down $1.8 million in the first quarter of 2022 compared to the same period in 2021.
  • Asset quality ratios were strong at March 31, 2022. Non-performing assets, restructured loans, and loans 90 days or more past due and still accruing to total assets and nonaccrual loans to total loans were 0.19% and 0.13%, respectively, compared to 0.21% and 0.14% at December 31, 2021, and 0.52% and 0.23% at March 31, 2021. With asset quality measures continuing to report near cycle best levels, easing COVID infection levels, and loan balances down for the quarter, CIBM reversed $0.3 million in provisions for future loan losses compared to a nominal provision in the same period of 2021.
  • Tangible book value attributable to the common stock was $55.13 per share outstanding at March 31, 2022, compared to $57.06 at December 31, 2021, and $53.25 at March 31, 2021. The change at CIBM is similar to the experience across the industry. With a 100 basis point or more increase in US Treasury rates in the 2- to 5-year terms over the first quarter, the unrealized losses in the available for sale securities portfolio increased, representing $2.19 in tangible book value per share at March 31, 2022.
  • Deposits for checking, savings, and money market accounts in aggregate grew by $12 million from December 31, 2021, to March 31, 2022, due to marketing activity and continued relatively low short-term interest rates. As short-term federal funds and US T-Bill interest rates rise over the course of the year, pressure on balances is expected to increase.

Mr. J. Brian Chaffin, CIBM’s President and CEO, commented, “Tightening margins and the impact of seasonal and cyclical factors on mortgage volumes have led to a decline in the operating results for our mortgage banking division. With mortgage volumes expected to be down significantly compared to the last two years, we are taking this opportunity to make an important upgrade in our mortgage loan operating system, which will provide a better loan origination experience for employees and customers alike.

“Interest rates across the curve have shifted significantly upwards, with federal funds rates expected to increase from near 0% at the beginning of the year to over 2.0% by year-end as part of the Fed’s inflation fighting monetary policy action plan. We expect this to dampen loan demand, economic activity, and certain asset prices significantly, and it has already changed recession risks materially over the coming year or two. We plan to continue adjusting underwriting standards to reflect future credit risks and actively managing the loan portfolio.

“The increase in interest rates is widely expected to reduce lower-cost deposit growth in the industry. However, lower loan demand and significant balance sheet liquidity are expected to slow the increase in deposit costs at CIBM and in the industry.

“Two years ago, we began Project Falcon with the primary goal of changing our deposit mix and cost of funds. Since then, our percentile rank for annual interest bearing liability costs within our national peer size category has declined from the 83rd to the 35th on a year-on-year basis.

“Project Falcon also focuses on identifying and implementing internal process improvements and efficiency-enhancing technologies that allow us to maximize our internal capacity. In addition, we continue to focus on hiring and retaining highly talented employees, providing them the tools they need to be successful in our industry, and rewarding their success at competitive levels.

“Finally, to support our preferred stock redemption plan, we issued $10 million in subordinated debentures during the first quarter of 2022. The 10-year notes bear interest at 4.50% per annum through February 18, 2027, and thereafter pay a quarterly floating rate equal to the Three-Month Term SOFR plus 275 basis. With two years of improved operating results, strong asset quality, and a substantial reduction in preferred stock already completed, the market presented an opportunity for this lower cost of capital to be obtained.”
