Thank you, Sarah. Good morning, everyone. Welcome. Nice to have you to our Q1 2022 conference call and webcast. Last night, we issued our earnings for the Q1 , and we were pleased with the start of the year to what we all know may be a challenging year for many banks. In the midst of these headwinds, we remain focused on expanding households for greater scale, more services in those households, and remaining that preferred provider of additional services to our now over 36,000 households. At the same time, we were especially pleased and honored to be included in KBW Bank Honor Roll of high-performing banks for the second year running now. Inclusion in this select group of publicly traded banks this year, one of 17, is a strong statement to our earnings trend over the last 10 years.
Highlights for this quarter include $900,000 pre-tax mortgage servicing right recapture and include net income of $2.81 million, down $4.3 million from the prior year quarter. When we adjust for non-GAAP impact in 2022, net income was $2.1 million. Earnings per share $0.40, which is reduced to $0.38 per share when adjusting for the servicing rights recapture. Net interest income of $8.5 million, down nearly 12% from the prior year. That was driven by the impact of PPP forgiveness in 2021. Adjusting for the PPP impact would result in NIM generally flat to the prior year. Loan balances adjusted for PPP were up from the prior year quarter by just over $56 million, and the linked quarter, $28 million.
Deposits continued to grow $25 million from the linked quarter, $18 million from the prior year. Expenses down $50,000 due to lower mortgage commissions and higher vacancy levels. Mortgage origination volume $97 million, down 38% from the prior year, 23% from linked quarter. Asset quality metrics were improved from both the prior year and linked quarter, and our level of 42 basis points of non-performing assets remains strong. We were comfortable with a $0 provision during the quarter due to our strong asset quality metrics, higher reserve level, and negligible net charge-offs for the quarter. As we conveyed in our annual meeting and many quarters before, we continue to reiterate that future success of our company is driven by our five key initiatives.
Growing and diversifying revenue, more scale with organic growth, and of course, M&A when opportunistic, more products and services for our client base, excellence in operations and customized client communication, and of course, asset quality. First, revenue diversity. Peak Title continued to provide support for our residential mortgage efforts while expanding its reach into more clients outside of just State Bank. We completed the purchase of that small title agency in Northwest Ohio at the end of 2021, and the integration into these markets with our lending team has been very well received. In addition, we now have a commercial lender to complement our existing residential real estate and title insurance business now in Indianapolis. In fact, we were able to do a bit of commercial title business in the quarter to supplement the decline in residential volume.
To ensure our commercial traction remains, we have even increased our incentives to our lenders to ensure they utilize our own title agency, and the results are beginning to pay off. Although mortgage originations in the quarter were below $100 million, we feel good about the level of production in all of our markets, given the headwinds from rising rates and continued compressed housing inventories. Over the last 12 months, we have still delivered nearly $550 million in total mortgage origination volume. Our private client group mortgage product we developed in 2021 has enabled us to book approximately $57 million over the last 13 months that we would have missed absent launching this initiative some time ago.
Our wealth management group continues to be a key differentiator for our company, particularly as a number of our competitors appear to have adopted a more remote presence in this high touch business line. Total assets under management ended the quarter at $561 million, and revenue generated for the quarter was $955 thousand. Secondly, more scale. Loan growth was positive in the quarter as we increased $28 million from the linked quarter, net of PPP or an annualized 13.6%. We now have had positive adjusted loan growth in 3 of our last 4 quarters. Compared to the prior year, net loans are up 7.1%, nearly all the way back to our high single digit, low double-digit rate that was more of the norm for our company pre-pandemic.
Pipelines are building well in our markets, and as I mentioned earlier, we recently named a new market and lending executive in the robust Indianapolis market. This is a market that fits our product lineup well, and we expect to mirror the success that we have had in the Columbus market over time. Our deposit base expanded to $1.14 billion, up another $18 million from the prior year. With impending rise in rates, we do expect that deposit pricing will return to some normalcy during 2022. Although we still have ample liquidity, our customers have slowly begun to spend, and we will be focusing on hedging rising rates and continuing to grow deposits, albeit with a mild duration extension and appropriate pricing. Third, deeper relationships and more scope. We ended the quarter with $1 million remaining in PPP loans.
As we look back, we were able to help a number of our clients and acquire new ones as a result of our flexibility and commitment to assist our businesses with those liquidity needs. Our strategy was to take the majority of $5 million in fees from the program and build our loan loss reserve this past year by over $4.5 million, increasing it to nearly $14 million. As it has turned out, the program was certainly a lot of work, as we all know, for our staff, as it was a significant disruption. It was a great win for our franchise, a huge benefit to our clients, and particularly the 200 prospects that we've developed into new clients. Now that the end of the PPP program is within sight, we have eagerly returned to our traditional 7(a) SBA lending strategy.
In fact, this quarter delivered gains on sale of $168,000. Operational excellence, our fourth aim. Mortgage refinance volumes slowed in the quarter as the movement in rates made the refinance segment of our strategy certainly less attractive. For the quarter, 14% came from internal refinances, 23% from external refinances, and pleased to report purchase and construction lending was 63% of our volume. However, we are encountering low inventory in all of our markets and certainly increased competition for new deals. Expense levels for the quarter were down from the prior year. Clearly, having a third less in mortgage volume reduced commission expense, and last year we also moved all of our support staff in the mortgage arena to more of a per-file compensation model that has realigned our levels of compensation with our levels of production.
We understand that the mortgage business line is highly variable, and our model continues to be built for $500 million-$600 million in annual volume. We will continue to look for ways to make the business line more efficient and, of course, more profitable. As we have discussed in prior quarters, the variable here is not the level of production, but rather the number of producers to achieve that volume. As such, all of our regional real estate leaders are out recruiting MLOs every day. We think there will continue to be more disruption in the arena among our competitors, and as we remain committed to the business line, we expect to leverage our products, our brand, and our strong market presence to achieve our production goals. Finally, asset quality.
As we revealed last quarter, we were confident that $1.6 million in OREO properties would sell this quarter, which they have, and thereby has reduced overall NPAs by nearly $1 million for both the prior year and linked quarters. However, our level of non-performing loans has elevated a bit due to the slight increase in our residential loan portfolio. As our communities have begun to allow the foreclosure process to move forward, we do expect to improve our metrics in the coming quarters. As I stated earlier, record earnings in 2021 from PPP and mortgage sales allowed us to build our reserve level, which now stands, as I mentioned, $14 million and 1.62% of loans.
Net charge-offs were just $1,000 in the quarter, and we certainly have the runway within our reserve to easily handle anticipated loan growth throughout the year. Now I ask Tony to give us a few more details, Tony, if you would, on the quarterly performance.
Thanks, Mark. Good morning. Again, for the quarter, as Mark stated, we had GAAP net income of $2.8 million or $0.40 per share. As Mark also noted, our earnings were impacted by the $900,000 recapture of our prior mortgage servicing rights. As we adjust for this recapture item, net income would have been $2.1 million for the quarter. Of which those highlights include operating revenue down 30.5% from the prior year and down 8.9% from the linked quarter. PPP forgiveness and the impact of a slowing mortgage business impacted our results. Operating expenses were down nearly 1% from the prior year. Margin revenue was down over the prior quarter due to the $1.3 million decline in PPP forgiveness revenue.
We were able to grow core margin a bit with loan growth and reduced funding costs that helped to offset the rate declines in the loan portfolio. Now as we break down further the Q1 income statement, starting with margin. As I said, net interest income was down 11.9% for the prior year, but would be up 1.8% when we adjust for the PPP forgiveness. Our average loan yield for the quarter of 3.9% decreased by 72 basis points for the prior year, which would be reduced by just 43 basis points when PPP is excluded. Loan yield comparisons are impacted by the fees from the PPP portfolio, which are nearly all realized. As such, we earned nearly $5 million in fees and interest from the program, the bulk of which was taken during 2021.
On the funding side, we again reduced the cost of our interest-bearing liabilities from the prior year. For the quarter, the rate on our interest-bearing liabilities was 39 basis points, which is down from the prior year by 11 basis points and down from the linked quarter by 1 basis point. Net interest margin at 2.68% was down 53 and 21 basis points for the prior year and linked quarter. Excluding PPP, margin is down by 25 and 9 basis points respectively. Excess cash on our balance sheet continues to impact our margin, but we are optimistic that expanded loan growth and increased consumer spending will improve our balance sheet mix. We clearly believe we are at the bottom of the cycle on margins.
Total non-interest income of $5.8 million was down $5.1 million or 47% from the prior year, reflecting lower mortgage volume and the $1.8 million negative swing in servicing rights. If we remove the impact of the mortgage business line from fee income in both 2022 and 2021, other non-interest income would be up 8.8%. Total residential gains on sale came in at $1.7 million, which was 2.3% on our sold volume of $72.2 million. As expected, average yield on loan sales have tightened, and this quarter was equally difficult due to the rapid rise in rates. Our hedge position allowed us to lower the impact of the rate moves, but we do feel that this is the bottom of the curve on yields.
Our servicing portfolio is now nearly $1.4 billion with over 8,600 loans and provided revenue for the quarter of $862,000. The market value of our mortgage servicing rights improved significantly this quarter with a calculated fair value of just 105 basis points. This fair value was up 20 basis points from the prior year and up 12 basis points from the linked quarter. We now have a servicing rights balance of $13.1 million and remaining temporary impairment of $600,000. Rising rates should provide additional momentum for future recapture. Total operating expenses this quarter were $10.9 million, which were down $50,000 from the prior year and down $708,000 or 6.1% in the linked quarter.
Our headwinds include rising labor costs and technology spends with offsets from open employment positions and production-based compensation in May. Now as we turn to the balance sheet, loans outstanding at March 31, 2022 stood at $850 million, which were 63.7% of total assets of the company. As we have discussed in prior quarters, deposit levels are well beyond expectations and have certainly impacted total asset growth. We continue to optimize our balance sheet as appropriate and are optimistic that our team of commercial lenders and treasury management staff will identify additional opportunities to rebalance our asset mix.
As we look at our capital position, we finished the quarter at $132.6 million, which is down $11.3 million or 7.9% from the prior year, with our equity to asset ratio standing at 9.9%. On a per share basis, tangible book value of $15.31 is down compared to the Q1 of 2021 due to the bond portfolio unrealized loss. If we adjust for OCI, year-over-year tangible book value would have increased by 2.6%. Buyback continued at a brisk pace this quarter with 131,000 shares repurchased at an average price of $19.60. Total non-performing assets of $5.6 million or 42 basis points are down $900,000 for both the prior year and the linked quarter.
Included in our numbers are $700,000 in accruing restructured credit. These restructured loans elevate our non-performing level by 6 basis points, and absent them, our total non-performing asset ratio would be reduced to 36 basis points. As Mark indicated, provision expense for the quarter was $0, and our loan loss reserve is up from the prior year by $500,000 or 3.6%. I'll now turn the call back over to Mark.
Thank you, Tony. A solid start to another year, albeit with a completely new conversation about higher inflation, higher rates, steepening yield curve, higher mortgage rates that will drive more stable operating revenue as scale and improved asset mix. In addition to the great news we received regarding our inclusion in the KBW Honor Roll, I want to conclude with acknowledging the two events this quarter that have continued our pattern of returning earnings to our shareholder base in a meaningful way. First, in February, as you all know, we announced a 5% stock dividend, and just this week, we announced a common stock cash dividend of $0.12 per share, which equates to a 30% approximate payout ratio and now a dividend yield of 2.44%. We continue to look for ways to prudently return capital to our shareholder base.
Now I'll turn it back to Sarah for questions.
Thank you. Now we're ready for our first question.
Thank you. As a reminder, ladies and gentlemen, if you'd like to ask a question, please press star then one. Today's first question comes from Brian Martin at Janney Montgomery Scott. Please go ahead.
Hey, good morning, guys.
Hey, Brian.
Morning, Brian.
Hey, just maybe just a couple from me. Just if you talk, maybe just start with just the news on the Indy expansion or just kind of that, you know, kind of what the outlook is there. Can you share a little bit more just on kind of what the plan is there? I missed kind of some of what you said, but just I heard you're going to Indy and, just kind of in what capacity and how you're thinking about that, over time.
Yeah, sure. We've talked about it for a while. We, as you all know, have what, 5, now 4 mortgage producers on the mortgage side there, in Indy and doing some good work. We had committed to expanding that region as well as the Columbus region. We now have an individual that has been in that market his entire life, 20-some years in the commercial arena with a nice portfolio of PCG kind of lending balances. We're happy to have him with us. He has larger bank experience and some community bank experience, and we're looking for the $67 million growth in that market, Brian, the last half of the year.
Gotcha. Okay. The plan would be just to build a team around this person. Is that kind of over time what you're thinking?
Yes. We—as you know, we started in the Columbus market on the commercial side and then expanded into residential. On this one, we started the other way around. There's going to be some nice synergies between the group that we have there. That also includes now a title insurance lady who is helping us certainly with the expansion of Peak into Indianapolis, but now also a gentleman that's going to be able to tag team, if you will, with our staff there and find some synergies between all those individuals. We're looking forward to some great results like we have done in the last 12, 13 years in Columbus.
Yeah. Okay. No, it's exciting. Maybe just secondly, just high level on, maybe for Tony, or you Mark, whomever, but just on the mortgage outlook, given kind of what we've seen happen here and just knowing your model is more of a purchase model, but certainly benefiting from the refinance activity. Just kind of how you're thinking about kind of the volume change and kind of where the gain on sale margins are. It sounds like they're obviously a little bit lower across the board for the industry, but just any kind of context you can provide on that, how you're thinking about it?
Yeah, Brian, just, Tony will clean all this up, but as you know, we dipped our toe into the PCG world, and it's been nice for us. It's given us some great balances, much to our chagrin. Obviously, gain on sale, not only the volume is down, but the gains as well. We continue to expand in that Indianapolis market and certainly Columbus. As I mentioned also, we're built for that $500 million-$600 million, and so, we're bringing some additional people on as we speak. Our expectation is we are going to deliver our numbers, albeit with more people at a variable cost structure, which we like. Tony, some comments?
Yeah, I think you know, Brian, you know, as we look at volume, I do think it's a person play. I do think you know, generally the market is going to be down. You know, our numbers are down call it 38% on a year-over-year basis are in line with everybody that's reported thus far, as somewhere between 30% and 40%. I do think Q1 is a bit of an anomaly because of the craziness with rates. I do think it will kind of settle into a 25% kind of year-over-year changeover. So it'll be up to us to take advantage of maybe some people that are backing out. On the yield side, I do think this has been the bottom of the market.
The Q1 was especially tough on pricing. You know, our hedge is helping us quite a bit because we have a very good team of lenders that bring you know, a very high percentage of what we contract to the finish line. I think that's very important for us. We've gotten very good at it. You know, I do think you know, that 2.3% number that we had this quarter will trend up. You know, I'd like us to get back in this 2.4%-2.5% range by the end of the year, and I'm hopeful that that's where we're trending.
Gotcha. Okay. Just to be clear on the volume, Tony, it's kind of maybe 25% off of, you know, if you look at the base that was in 2021, is that kind of how you're thinking about, you know, that kind of haircut off of, you know, the total for 2021 or is it just kind of, you know?
Yeah, I mean, you know, we did, you know, $700 million in 2020 and $600 million in 2021. So, you know, kind of a 25%. I'd say we are somewhere in that $450 million-$475 million target range as we look out, as we sit today, you know, but that's really all dependent on the denominator. If we get more people on the ground, I think we have a chance to have that maybe on the higher end of that number.
Yeah. No, that makes sense. Okay. I appreciate it. You sound just either one of you just optimistic on the loan growth front. A couple quarters here, three of the last four had nice positive, you know, trends. How are you? You know, I mean, kind of the pipelines sound like they're good. I guess, are you optimistic that, you know, that these kind of trends are sustainable or just, you know, maybe just any context on, you know, what you're hearing from your customers on loan growth?
Yeah. Thanks, Brian. Steve is here, and he can certainly make some comments on what he's seeing in the pipeline. As we've communicated for many quarters, we stick to the fundamentals. We make joint calls, we make individual calls, and you know, we know if we stick to those fundamentals, we are gonna find some things, albeit at lower maybe rates than we want. Competition's pretty key. We are finding some good traction. The nice thing is, Brian, it's really coming from all the markets. One month we'll have one market that's making the $5 million contribution, and next month we'll be growing $5 million in a different market. We love our diversity of our geography. I know Steve, we're probably seeing growth generally in everyone's pipelines.
Yeah, absolutely Mark. I would reiterate exactly what you said about the broad-based growth we've seen in our footprint, both our rural markets as well as our urban markets. Solid pipelines coming out of the Q4 , which we realized here in Q1, and our pipelines today are as good as certainly they were coming out of the Q4 . I feel good about where we are in the Q2 .
Okay. I mean, your optimism maybe there'd be that upper single digit, you know, mid to high single digit growth for the year seems attainable given where the pipelines are today and kind of the general outlook?
I think today that's reasonable. It's hard to anticipate in the third and Q4 what the interest rate environment may do. Certainly hard to believe we're talking about it, but global events and what effect they may have on the third and Q4 . Today, what we hear from clients is steady as she goes, and we expect continued loan growth. Particularly as assets become available to borrowers. We still see constraints with equipment supply, labor supply in some cases that constrain some of those opportunities that are merely waiting for those supply constraints to be reduced.
Yes. Brian, probably maybe as important as anything, management expectations of growth remain high. The variable is the amount of work to get it. We are pretty fixated on that high single digit. We'd love low double digit. We don't want to be at the, you know, the top quartile and be improving our lending practices, but we remain pretty steadfast in how we do our loans and how we underwrite and the expectations of getting them back. Expectations remain high, and that drives a lot of our calling efforts.
Yeah. Okay. No, it sounds good. You know, I guess maybe just kind of to the margin and the rate hikes and how that impacts things and maybe just how you guys are thinking about the mix of the balance sheet today, given you know the elevated level of cash and securities and just you know how do things play out? Does the balance sheet really kind of grow from here? Is it just a remix of, you know, you put this loan growth on, you're kind of remixing it from the liquidity. But just any context on that, and then how the rate impacts or the potential rate increases will influence the margin.
Yeah. You know, great question, Brian. I think, you know, that all banks are struggling with today. You know, as we look at where we were at Q1, you know, net of PPP, our margin, you know, at 2.66. You know, I think obviously it's, you know, as low as we've ever seen it. You know, I'm optimistic we've got, you know, call it 8% growth in that by the end of this year, which puts us, you know, kind of on the verge of a 3% margin number. That's obviously contingent on, you know, the biggest part of that is gonna be loan growth, and we're extremely bullish, I would say, about Q2.
You know, the bulk of our portfolio is variable, you know, call it 78%+, but only about, you know, $130-$140 million of that is just directly related to prime. You know, we'll get immediate pop on the $130 million based on the number of rate rises that we have, and we think there's going to be, call it 100-150 basis points between now and the end of the year. That's kind of where we've modeled. The rest of the variable portfolio will move over time. I think, you know, generally we feel good about where we are.
You know, our current sensitivity is about 11% on an up 300 basis point move, which we think is kind of in line with what every other bank, community bank is on an asset-sensitive basis. I would say that's where we kind of are, and that's what we're looking at.
Okay. How about the mix, Tony? How are you thinking about, you know, the balance sheet today, you know, with in terms of, you know, is it just really remixing and are you still seeing, you know, deposit flows where maybe the balance sheet grows a bit from here? Or is it more just the simplistic that you're gonna grow loans and fund it from that, you know, liquidity that you have to improve the, you know, to add to the margin expansion?
Yeah, I think you know that I think that's the big question for all of us. I do think deposit growth has peaked. I do think we a re gonna see a little bit of opportunistic moves on deposits. You know, we had $100+ million in cash that we, you know, kind of selfishly left on the sidelines because we had enough mortgage net income to sustain us. I think if that money gets moved into predominantly loan side, I don't anticipate us moving the bond portfolio much higher than it is today, and we'll gradually begin to move that down as we get, you know, kind of the normal amortization. I think it's all about mix for us.
I mean, I think our total asset base, which was $1.3 billion and some change, will be in, you know, $1.275 billion or so at the end of Q2 just because of the reallocation.
The other wild card, Brian, I have to say this because I watch it all the time, and I keep track of it, is not only a referral perspective that we're consistent on, but those 8,600 households that have averaging less than one additional service in each household. We're working hard to expand that mortgage portfolio that we worked really hard to build the last 12 years. That continues to be a wild card for us. I know Tony's expectations are that we not only rebalance our mix, but also expand the size with the scale. We know that's an opportunity. We continue to lever that to build the balance sheet, which I think is an advantage for what we've done the last 10 years.
Yeah. No, that makes sense. All right. Maybe just the last two for me was just on the expense outlook, you know, just given what we're seeing with competitive pressures in the market on the inflationary front, you know, I guess if you look at where the expenses are today, is it you know, I guess a pretty good run rate to build off of as you look at the balance of the year? I guess, are you seeing you know, potential you know, higher levels of expenses given what's going on in the marketplace and you know, the need to hire people?
Well, you hit the nail on the head, Brian. We've witnessed fairly strong headwinds on staffing. We have addressed them head on. We have adjusted some several times. We certainly, I think we have a great palette of benefits for our staff, but those continue to rise, which is why we are so insistent on identifying and gathering that scale. We do have a good variable-based model, as we mentioned, on the mortgage side. I think we got that right in terms of, you know, we'd love to be having more commission expense because we all win when that happens. If that's down, obviously our incentives are going to be down and with that, our compensation expense. Technology spend is still way up there.
I think as rates rise a bit and maybe the slack in the economy slows a bit, there won't be as many openings, which I think will have a corresponding effect on our P&L. Tony, comments on expenses otherwise?
Yeah, I think, you know, I think the same pressures that everybody else is talking about we're seeing. I think, you know, I would put it kind of a different way and a way to look at our total, call it net income base, is I think we probably put, you know, we could have done some more technology things with our PPP and mortgage money. We put that in reserve. I think that gives us the ability to grow and maybe, you know, we have to encounter some of our expense raises over the next 18 months. You know, we certainly know we've got to look at our branch structure and is there opportunities there and other things.
You know, I think your first statement was, it's a good base to move upon based upon where mortgage volume will be as a variable.
Gotcha. Okay. I think just the last one was just on the buyback and the capital return. It sounds like the expectation is that at least the kind of the continued expectation that there'd be some further repurchases, you know, depending on how opportunistic you are on the market with the stock price. Assuming that that cooperates, then the expectation would be that continues at least in the near term?
Yeah, absolutely. You know, we still got a good bit of runway left on our existing authorization. I would think, you know, we could stay at these quarterly levels for the next two quarters and still, you know, relook at it probably in Q4 of this year. We still think it's a great value for our internally generated capital. We've got, you know, we have done a number of capital raises. We did the debt issuance last year, so we don't think having an aggressive buyback in any way conflicts us from being able to do whatever we need to do organically or strategically.
Right. How much is left of the buyback today, Tony? If not, I can look, if you have it, if you don't know it right now, no big deal.
It's $340 thousand-ish, somewhere in that range.
Okay.
'Cause I think, you know, I modeled out 150 per quarter the next 2, and then, you know, sometime in Q4, we probably, you know, are on the back end and probably relooking at where we are.
Revisit it. Okay. Perfect. All right. Well, nice quarter and good update, guys. Thanks so much.
Take care, Brian. Thanks, Brian.
Thanks, Brian.
Ladies and gentlemen, as a reminder, if you'd like to ask a question, please press star then one. If there are no further questions, I will now turn the call back to Mark Klein.
Thank you, everyone for joining us this morning. Certainly look forward to speaking with you in July for Q2 here in the year of 2022. Thanks for joining, and goodbye.
Take care.
Thank you, everyone. Today's presentation is now concluded, and we thank you all for attending. You may now disconnect your lines whenever you want.
