White River Bancshares Co. Earns $340,000, or $0.34 Per Diluted Share, in First Quarter 2023; Total Assets Surpass $1.0 Billion
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark., April 17, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — White River Bancshares Company (OTCQX: WRIV), (the “Company”) the holding company for Signature Bank of Arkansas (the “Bank”), today reported net income of $340,000, or $0.34 per dilute share, in the first quarter of 2023, compared to $1.07 million, or $1.08 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2022. In the immediate prior quarter, the Company earned $1.42 million, or $1.42 per diluted share. All financial results are unaudited.
“Our Arkansas-based bank’s goal from our very first day has been to be the very best community bank for our customers that we can be,” said Gary Head, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We focus on the communities in which we live and work, and allow our local leaders to drive decisions in their markets. Our style of banking allows us to maintain close personal relationships with our customers. We are a phone call away, night or day, and the past month has been a testament to this personalized approach to community banking.”
“We have a diverse deposit and loan portfolio and have stayed clear of the issues affecting the banks that were closed by federal regulators in March. Our expansions into Harrison, Jonesboro, and the addition of Banco Sí, our bilingual banking brand, have been strategic moves to continue diversifying our deposit and loan portfolios. These new markets have contributed to double digit loan and deposit growth, year over year, which fueled our bottom line and strengthened our balance sheet. The near-term costs of entering these new markets, combined with the unprecedented rise in funding costs that the banking industry is managing, significantly impacted our net income results this quarter,” said Head.
“A primary driver of entering these new markets was to build out our deposit base to fund new loan activity,” said Scott Sandlin, Chief Strategy Officer. “We continue to enhance our core funding mix and, as a result, total deposits increased 14.7% compared to a year ago, with demand and non-interest-bearing deposits representing 27.9% of total deposits and savings and interest-bearing transaction accounts representing 36.3% of total deposits at March 31, 2023. In addition, we remain focused on strengthening our loan to deposit ratio, which was 94% at March 31, 2023, compared to 102% three months earlier. New customer relationships are fueling deposit growth and we expect that to continue as we grow into our new market locations.”
“On January 1, 2023, we implemented the Current Expected Credit Losses (“CECL”) methodology and the day one CECL adjustment resulted in an addition of $2.52 million to the allowance for credit losses,” said Jeff Maland, Chief Risk Officer. “Of the $2.52 million adjustment, $962,000 related to funded loan balances and $1.58 million related to funding a reserve for unfunded commitments. Using the CECL methodology, we recorded a credit loss provision of $150,000 during the first quarter of 2023. This compared to a $350,000 loan loss provision during the fourth quarter of 2022, and no provision during the first quarter a year ago, under the incurred loan loss methodology. This implementation had no impact on earnings, as our asset quality remains strong, and our loan portfolio continues to perform well.”

Income Statement
“Funding costs increased during the quarter due to the rapid rise in Fed rate increases, resulting in net interest margin contraction during the first quarter compared to the first quarter a year ago,” said Brant Ward, President. “We anticipate our NIM will stabilize as loan yields catch up to funding costs.” The Company’s NIM was 3.16% in the first quarter of 2023, compared to 3.58% in the first quarter of 2022. In the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company’s NIM was 3.79%.
Net interest income increased 2.6% to $7.5 million, compared to $7.3 million in the first quarter of 2022. Total interest income increased 41.4% to $11.6 million in the first quarter of 2023, compared to $8.2 million in the first quarter of 2022. Largely due to the increase in deposit costs, total interest expense increased to $4.1 million in the first quarter of 2023, from $896,000 in the first quarter of 2022.
Noninterest income decreased 8.3% to $1.2 million in the first quarter of 2023, compared to $1.3 million in the first quarter a year ago. Substantially lower secondary market fee income, and to a lesser extent lower wealth management fee income due to volatility in the stock market contributed to the decline during the first quarter of 2023.
Noninterest expense increased 13.4% to $8.2 million in the first quarter of 2023, compared to $7.2 million in the first quarter of 2022. Costs associated with the three new markets, higher commissions due to increased revenues in business lines, and an increase in salaries and employee benefits due to wage competition contributed to the increase during the first quarter of 2023, compared to the first quarter a year ago. Full time equivalent employees increased to 198 at March 31, 2023, from 197 at December 31, 2022, and 179 at March 31, 2022.
Balance Sheet
Total assets increased 20.5% to a record $1.080 billion at March 31, 2023, from $895.6 million at March 31, 2022, and increased 9.9% compared to $982.8 million at December 31, 2022. Cash and cash equivalents totaled $87.2 million at March 31, 2023, compared $90.3 million a year ago and increased substantially when compared to $11.8 million at December 31, 2022. Investment securities totaled $99.3 million at March 31, 2023, from $85.5 million a year ago.
Loans, net of allowance for credit losses, increased 23.3% to $838.9 million at March 31, 2023, compared to $680.3 million a year ago, and increased 1.5% compared to $826.7 million three months earlier.
Total deposits increased 14.7% to $890.8 million at March 31, 2023, compared to $776.7 million a year ago and increased 9.9% compared to $810.6 million at December 31, 2022. Time deposits account for a majority of the deposit growth year-over-year.
FHLB advances increased to $64.1 million at March 31, 2023, from $10.9 million at March 31, 2022. Total stockholders’ equity was $77.6 million at March 31, 2023, compared to $78.0 million at March 31, 2022, and $77.5 million at December 31, 2022. Tangible book value per common share was $77.76 at March 31, 2023, from $78.61 at March 31, 2022, and $77.64 at December 31, 2022. The decrease in total stockholders’ equity and tangible book value per share at March 31, 2023 compared to a year ago was primarily due to a $3.4 million decrease in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) related primarily to an increase in the unrealized loss on available for sale securities reflecting the increase in interest rates during the current quarter. Excluding AOCI, tangible book value per share was $82.93 at March 31, 2023.
Credit Quality
“Asset quality remains pristine, and we are focused on staying conservative with our underwriting practices,” said Maland. “Additionally, we are being proactive by working with our customers to solve credit issues in advance of a credit becoming a problem, which is helping to keep our asset quality ratios stable.”
The Company recorded a $150,000 provision for credit losses under the CECL methodology. This compared to a $350,000 provision in the fourth quarter of 2022, and no provision in the first quarter of 2022.
Nonperforming assets totaled $124,000, and represented only 0.01% of total assets at March 31, 2023, which was unchanged compared to December 31, 2022. Nonperforming assets totaled $664,000, or 0.07% of total assets a year ago.
The allowance for credit losses was $11.9 million, or 1.40% of total loans, at March 31, 2023, compared to $9.2 million, or 1.10% of total loans, at December 31, 2022, and $8.2 million, or 1.19% of total loans, at March 31, 2022. Net loan recoveries were $66,000 in the first quarter of 2023, compared to net loan recoveries of $105,000 in the fourth quarter of 2022, and net loan recoveries of $11,000 in the first quarter of 2022.
Capital
The Bank’s capital ratios continued to exceed regulatory “well-capitalized” requirements, with a Total risk-based capital ratio estimate of 12.99%, Common equity Tier 1 capital ratio of 11.83%, Tier 1 risk-based capital ratio of 11.83% and Tier 1 leverage ratio of 10.35%, at March 31, 2023.

Recent Developments
The Company launched a new market, Banco Sí, to focus on and serve the Hispanic and Latino community, which is a growing segment of the population. This new market was formed as a division of Signature Bank of Arkansas during the third quarter of 2022, and its initial market location opened in downtown Rogers in a historic building at 114 S. 1st St.
“Our mission when launching Banco Sí was to create economic growth and access to banking services, capital, and funds for small and midsize businesses in the Latino community,” said Ward. “To help us accelerate our outreach and engagement of this growing community, we employed bilingual staff and invested in multicultural inclusion training for our leadership and staff.”
During the first quarter of 2022, the Company opened its seventh market, located at 111 East Jackson Avenue in Jonesboro. This facility will serve as a temporary location for the market and marks the Company’s entry into Craighead County. According to the 2020 Census, Jonesboro had a population of 78,576 and is the fifth-largest city in Arkansas.
In the second quarter of 2022, the Company held its grand opening of the sixth market, Harrison, which had been operating in a temporary space for several months while the permanent space was under construction. The entry to Boone County is a new, but familiar market to the Company, as many of its shareholders reside in and around Harrison. According to the 2020 Census, Harrison had a population of 13,124.
