BROOKFIELD, Wis., Jan. 20, 2023 (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 year ending December 31, 2022. Operating results for the year were dominated by rising net interest income and related net interest margins; continued asset quality strength; recoveries of prior loan losses; and the difficult operating environment for mortgage banking. Net income for the twelve months ended December 31, 2022, was $3.7 million, or $2.97 basic and $2.16 diluted earnings per share, compared to $6.7 million, or $5.64 basic and $4.06 diluted earnings per share, for the same period of 2021; and net income for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, was $0.9 million, or $0.81 basic and $0.59 diluted earnings per share, compared to $1.1 million, or $1.28 basic and $0.92 diluted earnings per share, for the same period in 2021.

   Financial highlights for the year and quarter ended December 31, 2022, include:

  • Net interest income and margin were $23.9 million and 3.27%, respectively, for the twelve-month period, compared to $23.3 million and 3.22%, respectively, in the same period of 2021; and $6.1 million and 3.32%, respectively, for the quarter, compared to $5.9 million and 3.18%, respectively, for the same period of 2021. These improvements were despite $0.8 million lower Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan fee accretion income and $0.4 million more subordinated debt interest expense in 2022, compared to the prior year. Stronger results reflect primarily higher earning asset balances and yields, and the relatively high level of non-interest bearing checking account balances. All remaining PPP loans were fully repaid in the third quarter of 2022.
  • Net mortgage banking revenues were down $9.3 million and $1.7 million for the twelve months and quarter, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2021. The change was due to a $260 million or 58% decline in loan originations for the twelve-month period compared to the prior year, as a result of average 30-year mortgage rates rising by more than 250 basis points from 2021 to 2022 and the dramatic competitive tightening of pricing margins across the mortgage banking industry.
  • As of December 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 0.20% and 0.16%, respectively, compared to 0.21% and 0.14%, respectively, on December 31, 2021. In addition, net recoveries resulting from collections of loans previously charged off were 0.33% of average loans for the fourth quarter ending December 31, 2022; combined with ongoing collections and pay-offs of classified assets there was a reversal of loan losses of $0.6 million for the quarter. Reversals of loan losses were $0.9 million for the year, compared to $1.2 million for the same period in 2021, with the primary difference being the improved environmental factors during 2021 compared to its prior period.
  • Since December 31, 2021, the Fed has increased their target fed funds rate by 450 basis points putting pressure on deposit mix over the shorter term. Over the year 2022, time deposit balances have increased $32 million versus a decrease of $30 million in money market accounts, and interest bearing checking were up $13 million versus a decline of $5 million in non-interest bearing checking accounts. The current high level of short-term interest rates is a strong force for these ongoing trends of deposit balances shifting from lower cost to higher cost in the banking industry.
  • On December 19, 2022, CIBM redeemed 5,830 shares of Series A Preferred Stock for a total price of $4.8 million or $825 per share. The redemption was at a total discount of $146,000 to the carrying value for the preferred shares which is added to net income in the per share earnings allocated to common shareholder calculation.

Mr. J. Brian Chaffin, CIBM’s President and CEO, commented, “Rising interest rates and housing affordability have severely impacted mortgage origination volumes. In a recent press release, we highlighted steps we have taken to enhance revenue generation and efficiencies in our Mortgage Division while the mortgage origination industry consolidates. At the same time, rising interest rates supported rising net interest margins, and ongoing collection activity related to classified loans and previously charged-off loans enhanced our operating results and financial condition.”
