Fourth Quarter 2022 Highlights
|
● |
Record net income of $17.6 million, or $0.92 diluted earnings per share, increased $929,000, or 5.6%, from the prior quarter and increased $1.9 million, or 11.9%, from the fourth quarter of 2021 |
|
● |
Loans grew by $114.4 million, or 14.1% annualized, from the end of the prior quarter |
|
● Declared $0.16 per share quarterly dividend |
Los Angeles, CA, January 23, 2023 – RBB Bancorp (NASDAQ:RBB) and its subsidiaries, Royal Business Bank (“the Bank”) and RBB Asset Management Company (“RAM”), collectively referred to herein as “the Company,” announced financial results for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2022.
The Company reported net income of $17.6 million, or $0.92 diluted earnings per share, for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, compared to net income of $16.7 million, or $0.87 diluted earnings per share, and $15.7 million, or $0.79 diluted earnings per share, for the quarter ended September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
“Loan growth, increasing loan yields and declining expenses drove record fourth quarter and 2022 results,” said David Morris, President, CEO and CFO of RBB Bancorp. “The organizational re-alignment we began in the first quarter of last year is well underway with new hires and clearly defined responsibilities contributing to results. I'm also pleased to announce that we have concluded all internal investigations and have taken previously disclosed steps to address shortcomings and prevent future lapses.
While we made tremendous progress in 2022, we’re not immune from market forces and the impact of the rate environment. We saw significant pressure on deposit costs in the fourth quarter which we anticipate will continue over the next few quarters.”
“Despite the challenges Royal Business Bank faced in 2022, the strength of the franchise and focus of the management team delivered a record year of results and loan growth,” said Dr. James Kao, Chairman of RBB Bancorp. “As shareholders, the RBB Board of Directors appreciates management’s efforts over the past twelve months and looks forward to continuing to build on the momentum they have achieved.”
Key Performance Ratios
Net income of $17.6 million for the fourth quarter of 2022 produced an annualized return on average assets ("ROA") of 1.80% and an annualized return on average shareholders' equity ("ROE") of 14.59% compared to an annualized ROA of 1.72% and an annualized ROE of 13.93% for the third quarter of 2022. The efficiency ratio, which is defined in the Selected Financial Highlights section, for the fourth quarter of 2022 was 31.67%, compared to 40.22% for the third quarter of 2022.
Net Interest Income and Net Interest Margin
Net interest income, before provision for credit losses, was $39.0 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared to $39.0 million for the third quarter of 2022. Net interest income remained flat as revenues from a $162.7 million increase in higher-yielding average commercial real estate and mortgage loans was offset by costs of a $250.0 million increase in average time deposits.
Compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, net interest income, before provision for credit losses, increased $5.8 million from $33.2 million. The $5.8 million increase was primarily attributable to a $414.1 million increase in average commercial real estate and mortgage loans partially offset by a $161.0 million increase in average time deposits and due to increasing rates.
Net interest margin was 4.26% for the fourth quarter of 2022, a decrease of 5 basis points from 4.31% in the third quarter of 2022 primarily due to a 111 basis point increase in the average cost on interest-bearing deposits from 0.82% in the third quarter of 2022 to 1.93% in the fourth quarter of 2022. Cost of interest-bearing deposits increased due to increasing market rates and peer bank deposit competition.
Noninterest Income
Noninterest income was $2.4 million for the fourth quarter of 2022, a decrease of $183,000 from $2.5 million in the third quarter of 2022. The decrease was primarily driven by a $153,000 decrease in gain on sale of loans and a $143,000 decrease in loan servicing fees due to loan payoffs in the third quarter of 2022, offset by an $85,000 increase in recoveries on purchased loans during the quarter.
During the fourth quarter loan sale volume and margins on loan sales decreased. The Company sold $2.8 million in FNMA qualified mortgage loans for a net gain of $69,000 during the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to $3.8 million in FNMA qualified mortgage loans sold for a net gain of $135,000 during the third quarter of 2022. The Company sold $834,000 in SBA loans during the fourth quarter of 2022 for a net gain of $43,000, compared to $2.5 million SBA loans sold for a net gain of $130,000 during the third quarter of 2022.
Compared to the fourth quarter of 2021, noninterest income decreased by $804,000 from $3.2 million. The decrease was primarily attributable to a $1.7 million decrease in gain on sale of loans due to rate hikes that caused both sellable loan volume and premium decreases, offset by a $323,000 increase in loan servicing fees due to loan payoffs slowing down in 2022, a $300,000 decrease in unrealized loss on equity investments, and a $265,000 increase in gain on derivatives.
Noninterest Expense
Noninterest expense for the fourth quarter of 2022 was $13.1 million, compared to $16.7 million for the third quarter of 2022. The $3.6 million decrease was primarily attributable to a $2.6 million decrease in salaries and employee benefits expenses due to bonus reversals related to executive compensation and lower commission expenses for decreased loan originations in the fourth quarter of 2022, a $902,000 decrease in the provision for off balance sheet commitments due to the conversion to CECL, and a $103,000 decrease in data processing expenses.
Noninterest expense decreased from $13.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2021. The $207,000 decrease was primarily due to a $641,000 decrease in legal and professional expenses due to the completion of the previously disclosed Board special investigation, offset by a $365,000 increase in data processing expenses.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate was 30.5% for the fourth quarter of 2022, 27.8% for the third quarter of 2022, and 30.0% for the fourth quarter of 2021. The Company recognized a tax benefit from stock option exercises of $9,000, $276,000 and $215,000 for the fourth quarter of 2022, the third quarter of 2022, and the fourth quarter of 2021, respectively. The Company amended its 2020 tax returns and 2018 California state tax return and recorded a total of $300,000 tax expense reduction in the third quarter of 2022.
Loan and Securities Portfolio
Loans held for investment, net of deferred fees and discounts, totaled $3.3 billion as of December 31, 2022, an increase of $115.5 million from September 30, 2022, and an increase of $405.1 million from December 31, 2021. The increase from September 30, 2022 was primarily due to a $107.8 million increase in single-family residential mortgage loans and a $91.3 million increase in commercial real estate loans, offset by a $76.6 million decrease in construction and land development loans and a $3.6 million decrease in commercial and industrial loans. The increase from December 31, 2021 was primarily due to a $459.5 million increase in single-family residential mortgages and a $64.1 million increase in commercial real estate loans, offset by a $67.5 million decrease in commercial and industrial loans and a $26.3 million decrease in construction and land development loans.
During the fourth quarter of 2022, single-family residential mortgage production was $130.8 million while net payoffs and paydowns were $21.4 million. During the third quarter of 2022, single-family residential mortgage production was $191.8 million while payoffs and paydowns were $36.2 million.
There were no mortgage loans held for sale as of December 31, 2022 compared to $1.2 million as of September 30, 2022 and $6.0 million as of December 31, 2021. The Company originated approximately $889,000 in FNMA mortgage loans for sale for the fourth quarter of 2022, compared with $1.8 million during the third quarter of 2022.
In the fourth quarter of 2022, SBA loan production was $10.2 million and total SBA loan sales were $834,000 compared to SBA loan production of $7.7 million and total SBA loan sales of $2.5 million in the third quarter of 2022.
As of December 31, 2022, the Bank’s total available-for-sale securities maturing in over 12 months were $234.8 million. As of December 31, 2022 the Bank recorded gross unrealized losses of $31.2 million compared to gross unrealized losses of $2.3 million as of December 31, 2021.
Deposits
Deposits were $3.0 billion at December 31, 2022, which was an increase of $18.0 million compared to September 30, 2022. During the fourth quarter of 2022, noninterest-bearing deposits decreased by $117.6 million due to the continued reduction of a single deposit relationship, interest-bearing non-maturity deposits decreased by $266.8 million, and time deposits increased by $402.4 million. As of December 31, 2022, there were $255.0 million in brokered CDs, as compared to $105.5 million brokered CDs as of September 30, 2022 and $2.4 million brokered CDs as of December 31, 2021. Compared to December 31, 2021, total deposits decreased by $407.8 million primarily due to a $492.7 million decrease in noninterest-bearing demand deposits, and a $312.3 million decrease in interest-bearing non-maturity deposits, offset by a $397.2 million increase in time deposits.
Asset Quality
Nonperforming assets totaled $12.1 million, or 0.31% of total assets at December 31, 2022, compared to $11.8 million, or 0.30% of total assets at September 30, 2022. The increase in nonperforming assets was due to the foreclosure of a property in the amount of $284,000 that was transferred to Other Real Estate Owned (OREO) in the fourth quarter of 2022. Nonperforming assets consist of other real estate owned, loans modified under troubled debt restructurings (“TDR”), non-accrual loans, and loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest.
Our 30-89 day delinquent loans, excluding non-accrual loans decreased $24.7 million to $15.2 million as of December 31, 2022 compared to $39.9 million as of September 30, 2022. 30-89 days past due loans at December 31, 2022 decreased primarily due to the completion of extensions on a construction loan of $11.3 million on a project that is substantially complete and a commercial real estate loan of $8.8 million. Both loans were delinquent for 52 days at September 30, 2022, and extended and back to current in October 2022.
In the fourth quarter of 2022, there were $85,000 in net charge-offs, compared to net recoveries of $127,000 in the third quarter of 2022 and net recoveries of $46,000 in the fourth quarter of 2021.
The Company's emerging growth company (“EGC”) status expired on December 31, 2022. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 “Accounting for Credit Losses” (“CECL”) retrospectively to January 1, 2022. Due to the adoption of CECL, the Company recorded a $2.1 million transition adjustment for the credit for loan losses and a provision for unfunded commitments of $1.0 million through retained earnings on January 1, 2022. Subsequent to CECL adoption, the Company recorded a provision for credit losses of $3.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to $1.8 million in third quarter of 2022. The Company also recorded a reversal of provision for off-balance sheet commitments of $930,000 in the fourth quarter of 2022 compared to a reversal of $28,000 in the third quarter of 2022.
The allowance for credit losses totaled $41.0 million, or 1.23% of loans held for investment at December 31, 2022, compared with $36.0 million, or 1.12%, of total loans at September 30, 2022.
Stock Repurchase

Return on Average Tangible Common Equity
Management measures return on average tangible common equity (“ROATCE”) to assess the Company’s capital strength and business performance and believes these are helpful to investors as an additional tool for further understanding our performance. Tangible equity excludes goodwill and other intangible assets (excluding mortgage servicing rights), and is reviewed by banking and financial institution regulators when assessing a financial institution’s capital adequacy. This non-GAAP financial measure should not be considered a substitute for operating results determined in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. The following table reconciles return on average tangible common equity to its most comparable GAAP measure:

Non-core Funding Dependency Ratio
The Bank measures core deposits by reviewing all relationships over $250,000 on a quarterly basis. The Company tracks all deposit relationships over $250,000 on a quarterly basis and consider a relationship to be core if there are any three or more of the following: (i) relationships with the Company (as a director or shareholder); (ii) deposits within the Company's market area; (iii) additional non-deposit services with the Company; (iv) electronic banking services with the Company; (v) active demand deposit account with the Company; (vi) deposits at market interest rates; and (vii) longevity of the relationship with the Company. The Company considers all deposit relationships under $250,000 as a core relationship except for time deposits originated through an internet service. This differs from the traditional definition of core deposits which is demand and savings deposits plus time deposits less than $250,000. The Company believes it is the proper way to measure our core and non-core deposits under regulatory guidelines. The following table reconciles the non-core dependency ratio.
