Farmers National Banc Corp. (“Farmers” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: FMNB) today announced net income of $13.3 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $15.4 million, or $0.46 per diluted share, for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Net income for the third quarter of 2023 included pretax items of $268,000 for acquisition related costs, $785,000 for the settlement of a lawsuit and combined net losses of $764,000 on the sale of securities and the sale of other assets. Excluding these items (non-GAAP), net income for the third quarter of 2023 would have been $14.8 million, or $0.40 per diluted share.

Kevin J. Helmick, President and CEO, stated “Despite the rapid increase in interest rates over the past year and a half, Farmers produced solid third quarter financial results reflecting the benefits of our diverse business model as well as our focus on maintaining strong asset quality and controlling operating expenses. These core banking principals create a solid foundation for Farmers to navigate an increasingly uncertain near-term economic environment, while supporting our long-term growth strategies.”

Balance Sheet

Total assets at September 30, 2023, were $4.97 billion compared to $5.07 billion at June 30, 2023 and $4.08 billion at December 31, 2022. The increase from December was primarily due to the acquisition of Emclaire Financial Corp. (“Emclaire”) which added $1.05 billion in assets in the first quarter of 2023. Loans (excluding loans held for sale) have increased by $763.8 million since December 31, 2022 and $13.4 million, or 1.7% annualized, since June 30, 2023. Emclaire was responsible for $740.7 million of the increase in loans since December 31, 2022.

Securities available for sale have declined to $1.21 billion at September 30, 2023 from $1.32 billion at June 30, 2023 and $1.27 billion at December 31, 2022. The decrease since December is due to the gross amount of unrealized losses which totaled $266.5 million at December 31, 2022, compared to a gross unrealized loss of $320.0 million at September 30, 2023. The Company also had sales and runoff from the portfolio during the nine months ended September 30, 2023. These decreases were offset by the addition of $127.0 million in available for sale securities from Emclaire. Bond market volatility is expected to continue through 2023, and the Company expects that it will continue to allow the size of the securities portfolio to shrink to optimize profitability.

Total customer deposits (excluding brokered time deposits) were $4.26 billion at September 30, 2023, compared to $4.25 billion at June 30, 2023, and $3.42 billion at December 31, 2022. The increase from December was driven by $875.8 million in deposits assumed in the acquisition of Emclaire. Competition for deposits remains high and the Company expects this will continue to place pressure on funding costs and deposit volumes.

Total stockholders’ equity equaled $316.0 million at September 30, 2023 compared to $367.0 million at June 30, 2023, and $292.3 million at December 31, 2022. The increase since December is primarily due to the acquisition of Emclaire and an increase in retained earnings offset by an increase in the unrealized loss from accumulated other comprehensive income. The accumulated other comprehensive loss has increased $41.7 million between December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2023 as market rates spiked sharply during the third quarter of 2023.

Liquidity

At September 30, 2023, the Company’s loan to deposit ratio was 70.2% and the Company’s average deposit balance per account (excluding collateralized deposits) was $27,646. The Company has access to an additional $892.6 million of FHLB borrowing capacity at September 30, 2023 along with $353.8 million of available for sale securities that are not pledged. With a deep and diverse deposit base and access to a large amount of additional funding capacity, the Company is well positioned to navigate the current banking landscape.

Credit Quality

The Company’s non-performing loans totaled $18.4 million at September 30, 2023, compared to $18.0 million at June 30, 2023, and $14.8 million at December 31, 2022. The increase since December was primarily due to the addition of Emclaire. Non-performing loans to total loans ratio was 0.58% at September 30, 2023, 0.57% at June 30, 2023, and 0.62% at December 31, 2022. Non-performing assets to total assets was 0.37% at September 30, 2023, and 0.36% at both June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022. The Company also continues to experience low levels of early stage delinquencies, defined as 30-89 days delinquent. At September 30, 2023, these delinquencies totaled $13.3 million, or 0.42% of total loans. They were $12.3 million, or 0.39% of total loans at June 30, 2023, compared to $9.6 million, or 0.40% of total loans, at December 31, 2022.

The provision for credit losses and unfunded commitments was $243,000 for the third quarter of 2023 compared to $25,000 for the second quarter of 2023 and $448,000 for the third quarter of 2022. Annualized net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans were 0.05% for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to 0.10% for the same period in 2022. The allowance for credit losses to total loans was 1.10% at September 30, 2023, compared to 1.11% at June 30, 2023, and 1.12% at December 31, 2022.

Net Interest Income

The Company reported net interest income of $33.8 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared to $34.6 million in the second quarter of 2023 and $31.8 million for the third quarter of 2022. Earning assets were greater in 2023 due to the acquisition of Emclaire but this was partially offset by a decline of 35 basis point in the net interest margin. The net interest margin was 2.86% in the third quarter of 2023 compared to 2.92% for the second quarter of 2023 and 3.21% for the third quarter of 2022. Excluding the impact of acquisition marks and related accretion and PPP interest and fees, the net interest margin (non-GAAP) for the third quarter of 2023 was 2.61% compared to 2.68% for the second quarter of 2023 and 3.19% for the third quarter of 2022. The decline in net interest margin between the third quarter of 2023 and the third quarter of 2022 was due to increases in funding costs outstripping the increase in yields on earning assets. This increase in funding costs has been due to the rapid increase in deposit rates due to intense competition for deposits, the continued Federal Reserve rate hiking cycle, and runoff of deposit balances which are being replaced by more costly wholesale funding. To help offset the continued compression in the Company’s net interest margin, the Company purchased $100.0 million of pay-fixed/receive variable interest rate swaps during the quarter to improve asset sensitivity and net interest income. The hedges have a final maturity of three years and at inception had a pay rate of 4.35%. Based on rates at September 30, 2023, the swaps are expected to generate approximately $960,000 of annualized net interest income.

Noninterest Income

Noninterest income totaled $9.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2023, compared to $8.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2022. Service charges on deposit accounts increased to $1.7 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 primarily due to the acquisition of Emclaire. Bank owned life insurance income, other mortgage banking fee income and debit card income have also increased in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the third quarter of 2022 due to the Emclaire acquisition. Insurance agency commissions are flat in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022 but growth for the year has been solid as growth in the insurance business and increased annuity sales have bolstered income. Security losses in the third quarter of 2023 totaled $624,000 compared to losses of $17,000 in the third quarter of 2022. The Company sold securities during the quarter to improve net interest margin in future periods. Investment commissions are up slightly for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2022, as customers have been more interested in the annuities mentioned above as opposed to traditional investment products. Net gains on the sale of loans have increased but are still sluggish due to the high level of interest rates and lack of loan volume.

Noninterest Expense

Noninterest expense was $27.7 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, compared to $21.4 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The increase in expense is primarily due to the acquisition of Emclaire. Salaries and employee benefits increased $3.5 million to $14.2 million in the third quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022. The acquisition of Emclaire along with normal raise activity were the primary reasons for the increase. Occupancy and equipment expense increased $782,000 primarily due to the acquisition. FDIC and state and local taxes increased due to the acquisition and the increase in the rate paid for FDIC insurance in 2023. Intangible amortization expense and core processing charges increased due to the acquisition. Merger related costs were $268,000 for the third quarter of 2023 compared to $872,000 in the third quarter of 2022. Other noninterest expense increased due the acquisition and due to the recognition of $785,000 in expense related to the settlement of a lawsuit.
