Idaho First Bank Releases Guidance Due to PPP Loan Activity

Written by Customer Service on . Posted in Public Companies.

MCCALL, Idaho, June 10, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Idaho First Bank (the “Bank”) (OTC: IDFB), a leader in Paycheck Protection Loans during COVID-19 shutdowns, advises that it believes that this activity will result in a material one-time increase to its revenue in 2020. The Bank is projecting an increase in 2020 revenue of between $5 million and $8 million once the revenue is fully received from its participation in the PPP process. While significant costs will also be incurred to service these loans, including addressing the forgiveness of loans as mandated by the CARES Act, with approximately 4.5 million common shares outstanding, the projected increase in revenue results in a per share increase of between $1.10 to $1.76, respectively, if we receive the expected revenue in 2020. It is likely the Bank will also use a portion of the revenue to further bolster its Allowance for Possible Loan and Lease Losses due to the unknown economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
CEO Greg Lovell states, “The Bank has been a very active provider of PPP loans given our focus on small business lending.” The average loan size of $150,000 provided many small businesses with the funding to help them through COVID-19 shutdowns. Mark Miller, Idaho Bank chairman said, “We are proud of our commitment to helping communities and the small businesses that drive the economics of those communities. We also hope that the relationships that we build with small business borrowers and their principals in this program will lead to many strong long-term relationships for future bank products.”About Idaho First Bank
